@dalibali2 I think quarterly reports until a blue chip like Meta goes semi-annual, after which everyone else gets social permission to follow

"Top Trump officials acknowledged to lawmakers during recent classified briefings that they did not plan for the possibility of Iran closing the strait in response to strikes."

will we get a historically accurate Cyclops?

[Noam Blum @neontaster]

I asked a table of history professors what they thought about Christopher Nolan’s decision to not depict historically accurate Greek armor in The Odyssey. Their response was basically “wow, a movie that isn’t historically accurate? That never happens.”

@TrueSlazac Saudi ouster of Lebanon PM?

[Ved Dashputre @VedDashputre]

@ShaneGoldmacher Small purple-ish states. New Hampshire, Montana, maybe North Dakota? Small states are cheaper to campaign in and easier to win on the ground.

I'd like candidates w/ large donor bases and high name recognition have less of an advantage and upstarts have a better chance,

Let's be even more clear about this:

-ICE's jurisdiction is ONLY on matters related to immigration.

-They do NOT have normal police powers or authorities.

-To stop a vehicle they MUST have reasonable cause to believe it contains an undocumented immigrant.

-To draw their weapon on someone they MUST have reasonable cause that their lives are in *DIRECT* danger.

-They CANNOT detain you with out reasonable cause to believe you are undocumented.

-They CANNOT detain a US citizen for passing-by the area.

Ice had NO jurisdiction to stop or interact with this woman at all, never mind pull out a gun.

A benefit of electing younger politicians is that they can grow into the job. AOC and Ossoff are both notably better politicians than when they first ran. Mamdani is better even than when he first ran in the mayoral primary.

[Conor Rogers @conorjrogers]

Still crazy that Jon Ossoff went from being that over-his-shoes-ex-staffer who lost to Karen Handel in that special election to the like electoral powerhouse Senator that's very good at his job

TIL Politico has a print edition

[Scott Nover @ScottNover]

News: Politico is ending its print newspaper at the end of the year.

"It no longer makes sense to continue publishing in print when the overwhelming majority of our audience consumes us electronically," a company spokesperson told @washingtonpost.

@davidshor Is there a way to separate out Healthcare and Cost of Living? Seems like Healthcare is rising in salience because of the looming added cost burden.

@simon_bazelon How much of the average is pulled up by Jared Golden alone? Would be interested to see the median

[Kat Rosenfield @katrosenfield]

extremely stray thought: given how many pigeons there are in NYC, it seems a little weird that you hardly ever see a dead one. where are they. is there a guy whose job it is to go around every night and collect all the dead pigeons or what

@nikillinit On #1, is there a difference between what you’re envisioning and the existing Accenture-type consultancies? Basically a more AI- focused approach?

@EmmaTolkin I think it used to be more of a signal for the character’s NY Yuppy Lifestyle. Feels like Chinese food only began ubiquitous throughout America in the last 20 years or so.

[Kim-Mai Cutler @kimmaicutler]

Guys.

We — as in Californian voters who voted in 1988 — voted for a system where every time an insurance company wants to raise rates for automobiles or homes, they have to have a public hearing and an elected insurance commissioner has to approve that rate increase.
