Apple just purchased a company that can read your silent speech. And it can become an AI centerpiece.

I decode it like I did in 2017…

Prime Minister @andyburnham and Foreign Secretary @Ed_Miliband : how much longer will Britain remain silent?

For three years the father of my two sons, and Pakistan’s former Prime Minister, Imran Khan, has been brutally penalised by his political opponents, in a personal vendetta by Army Chief, Asim Munir,  which according to the UN,  amounts to torture and which  is now taking a potentially fatal toll on his physical and mental health. 

He has endured 3 years of solitary confinement. For nearly ten months now his family has been denied contact with him. He has been deprived of the most basic human contact, denied access to books, lawyers and doctors.

The international human-rights standards are unequivocal. Under the UN’s Nelson Mandela Rules, solitary confinement lasting more than 15 consecutive days is prohibited and amounts to torture.

He has endured this treatment not for 15 days, but for three years.

Pakistan’s own Supreme Court has now intervened: ordering comprehensive  medical treatment, access to his personal doctor, regular family visits and twice-weekly calls with his sons.

Yet those orders are being defied.

This is no longer simply a Pakistani political matter. It is a human-rights emergency.

He has deep and lifelong ties to Britain. He studied at Oxford University, captained Oxford University cricket and spent years playing county cricket in England. His relationship with this country stretches back more than half a century. His charitable activities were internationally recognised, and  include building the only free cancer hospital in Pakistan as well as a university.

His sons, my two boys, Sulaiman and Kasim, are British citizens. They have been forced to watch their father’s health decline from thousands of miles away, prevented from visiting him, denied visas, publicly threatened by government officials with arrest themselves, and even denied court-mandated regular phone calls. 

I have repeatedly appealed to the UK government to intervene. Purported attempts at back channelling have evidently failed. The previous Foreign Secretary @DavidLammy informed me in writing that Britain would not  intervene if my sons, British citizens, are arrested when they travel to Pakistan to visit their father. 

@FCDOGovUK: Britain must now speak out publicly and unequivocally. Demand that Pakistan comply with its own Supreme Court;  restore Imran Khan’s medical access, his right to see his family, end his prolonged isolation and uphold his fundamental human rights.

Pakistan is a Commonwealth country. Britain has a long and proud tradition of standing against arbitrary detention, inhumane treatment and the denial of fundamental rights. Those principles mean very little if we invoke them only selectively and neglect them when inconvenient.
This an appeal to the new Burnham government  to please now do the right thing.

"Esto es Países Bajos eh".

En Amsterdam, unos racistas holandeses acosaron a un hombre negro que simplemente estaba grabándose en directo haciendo shadowboxing para sus seguidores.

El chico pidió repetidamente que lo dejaran en paz pero los racistas insistieron... y acabaron 3 racistas en el hospital, los demás acabaron noqueados, se equivocaron de tipo con quién meterse.

Los pseudomedios racistas occidentales andan culpando al joven negro por defenderse de 6 racistas que lo querían linchar y les salió mal.

Abdul El-Sayed: “Judaism and the Jewish people are not the same as Israel and AIPAC”

Charlamagne tha God: “Absolutely. I wish more people would say that”

Abdul El-Sayed: “My family immigrated from Egypt. When I’m elected, I’m probably going to be the loudest critic of the Egyptian government in the whole US Senate. I would hate if somebody were to say well you’re now accountable for what the government of Egypt did because you happen to share the same ethnicity of the people who live there”

Right on queue.

Criticising Sacha Baron Cohen's racist film is antisemitic.

The 2026 "Super El Niño" is now the worst on record, with sea temperatures rising +2.9C

The 1877–1878 El Niño is widely regarded as the worst in recorded history by human impact, with conservative estimates of sea temperature rise of +2.8C

The 1878 El Niño triggered simultaneous, multi-year droughts across India, northern China, Brazil, parts of Africa, and the United States.

The resulting famines killed more than 50 million people, roughly 3–4% of the estimated world population at the time.

It was called the Great Famine of 1876–1878 in India and the Northern Chinese Famine of 1876–1879

Another unacceptable act of violence against journalists reporting in the West Bank. Glad @MattMcBradley and his team are okay.

@JLC_uk All the pro-genocide freaks are freaking out, and you’re only proving to people that the government gets heavily lobbied by pro-Israel organisations.

What sort of scum storms a church to intimidate a vicar? James Henry Holmes, and other far-right frauditors do. It's no surprise that Holmes canvasses for Restore Britain.

Struggling to find a word to describe Trump's ugly, ugly conduct amid total silence from European governments.

Do you remember when the same governments bowled about "sovereignty" when Russia invaded Ukraine? Doesn't take high IQ to grasp what their silence is normalizing.

SemiAnalysis' Jordan Nanos says OpenAI beats Nvidia on both fast and cheap tokens at once, where every other challenger could only pick one side of the curve

"I think the conclusion is that they're basically winning on both sides of the curve."

"So both fast tokens and cheap tokens, which is just so interesting, because we've seen so many other companies make claims about how they're going to beat Nvidia and they just pick one of those."

"Groq or Cerebras, or any of the other startups that are going to focus on SRAM, call it a d-Matrix that's coming up with stuff, or SambaNova, where we've even seen some results on the InferenceMAX benchmark or something similar to it."

"They're saying they're going for fast tokens, just decode speed, low batch size, they don't worry about throughput."

"And then you've got other guys that are worried about throughput, call it AMD just as a simple example, but even TPU or Trainium could be in this bucket of accelerators that are going for throughput."

"And they go, 'Yeah, but we're not going to be able to compete with the other guys at high interactivity.'"

"And OpenAI has a chip that can do both for them, really well."

"I mean, at a minimum, this thing is doing really well right now and is going to serve real production tokens for them."
