Stow, Massachusetts Police Detective Jason Rogers faces possible termination and criminal charges after allegedly misusing Flock Safety license-plate readers and state databases to look up a person he knew, prompting the department to end its Flock contract and remove its cameras.
A robot just rode a hydrofoil across a mountain lake and balanced on it better than 99% of humans ever will. and that is somehow the least impressive thing in the clip.
here is why. balancing on a foil board is brutal for a person. most people eat water for 5 to 10 hours before they can even stand up on one. it feels like the hardest thing in the world.
for a machine it is nearly trivial. balance, motion, staying upright on a moving surface, this is the part robots quietly solved years ago. Boston Dynamics had a robot doing backflips back in 2017. dynamic balance is a closed problem.
now the flip that breaks people. the stuff that looks hard to us, backflips, foiling, running, is easy for a robot. the stuff that looks trivial, a hand picking up keys it has never seen, is the single hardest unsolved problem in the field. a human hand has 27 degrees of freedom. the best robot hands have around 12, and they break.
so clips like this are a magic trick. they show you the solved part, the flashy balance, and quietly hide the part that actually decides when robots enter your life. the hand.
and yes, this exact clip is almost certainly rendered. but the point holds. the balance is real and done. the hand is the wall. everyone is staring at the wrong thing.
so the real question. when a robot does something that looks impossible, are you watching a breakthrough, or a distraction from the one thing it still cannot do?

Newly released bodycam footage shows officers forcing entry into a locked trailer and recovering children who authorities say were abducted by their babysitter.
INSANE
New bodycam footage shows the moment Atlanta police rescued 2 little girls from a hot trailer after they were KIDNAPPED by Lakesha Brown.
Brown was PREVIOUSLY arrested for ANOTHER kidnapping in Alabama, where she stole a 4-day-old baby. She then failed to appear for her court date.
We shouldn't have to live like this. LOCK HER UP.
🚨#BREAKING: Absolutely ASTONISHING bodycam footage just showed the moment Atlanta police tore open a locked, hot, windowless trailer...
...and rescued a 4-year-old and an 11-month-old baby who'd been KIDNAPPED and hidden inside.
The woman who took them? She'd done it BEFORE.
She kidnapped a 4-day-old baby in Alabama in 2021... and NEVER stood trial for it.
Sorry, just slow down a second and read this next sentence slowly:
She stole **BABIES**, got away with it... and did it AGAIN.
This just happened in Atlanta, the way she did it will make your skin crawl.
Her name is Lakesha Brown, she's 42.
Police say she HUNTED this family.
Investigators say Brown posed as a babysitter in a Facebook "pregnancy moms" group... and spent an ENTIRE YEAR building trust with a mother named Elica Redding.
On Saturday, that mom went out to dinner and left her two little girls, 4-year-old Zola and 11-month-old Norah, with the woman she thought was a friend.
Brown took them and vanished.
An Amber Alert went out.
The girls were considered in extreme danger.
The FBI pinged her cellphone and traced her to an apartment complex in southwest Atlanta.
Then a detective heard a baby crying, from inside a locked tow trailer with no windows.
They grabbed bolt cutters, cut the lock, threw open the door...
...and found Brown hiding under a blanket with both little girls right beside her.
Both girls are safe. Back with their mama. Thank God.
This was not her first time.
In 2021, police say Brown kidnapped a 4-day-old baby boy in Alabama, after posing as a family friend, snatching him while his mother slept. That baby was found safe. Brown was indicted... and never stood trial. She had an outstanding warrant this whole time.
That baby's mother heard about Atlanta and said it plainly: "This was 100% avoidable."
She was RIGHT.
A serial baby-snatcher was walking free with an open warrant... and she used that freedom to hunt another family.
How many babies have to be stolen before the system stops letting her walk?!!!!!
GOD BLESS the officers who cut that lock and pulled those girls out.
Now LOCK. HER. UP. For good this time.
WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!
