A homeowner says a Flock camera appeared overnight and was aimed directly at his house.

This is terrible.

I'd say China is one of the highest value countries to travel too now

Really really really cheap, and the hotels you stay are all new and luxurious, while the food is also cheap and great

Just a very unique level of value there now you don't find anywhere else in the world

I swear to my mom I'm not some paid China shill, I just loved my trips there and it's great value

There is literally a person. A product manager. Who is responsible for this outcome. He wakes up every day and checks metrics on the toddler age group

You're telling me that Flock cameras have the capabilities to track a woman across multiple states to track if she got an abortion and a man who crossed state lines for weed, but they aren't being used for finding missing kids or get a glimpse of Mitch McConnell returning home?

Idk if people are ready for the "obesity is passed down from your parents eating seed oils" convo but it needs to be talked about more.

In animals we can see some frightening stuff:

1. Even on the same (high seed oil) bad diet - children become fatter than their parents.

2. Their children become fatter than they were, and so on. It's a cumulative effect.

3. Animals eating a GOOD diet STILL get fat if their ancestors ate a bad diet.

4. They got AS FAT eating a GOOD diet as their ancestors did eating a bad one.

I think ambitious people should treat life in “seasons” rather than trying to balance everything every day.

A few years massively overallocated to work. A period getting seriously fit. A year or two nomading. Then family takes priority for a while. Then maybe at 35 you go completely insane again and spend four years building a new company, and so on.

The mistake is thinking every metric needs to stay green all the time. Most great outcomes (building a company, writing sth serious, training for an event) need uninterrupted runs, not daily moderation. Sometimes work should suffer cause you’re travelling, sometimes your social life should suffer cause you’re building, sometimes career progression should slow cause family matters more. That’s fine.

And tbh it probably makes life more fun too. You get actual chapters and completely different versions of yourself instead of spending 40 years maintaining the same perfectly optimised routine. A few intense years in one city, a weird nomad phase, an obsession that takes over your life, then something completely different. Probably much more memorable than one very long well-optimised Tuesday.

It's why I encourage everyone to think of balance in years, not days. A good life can look horribly unbalanced on some random Tuesday and still be very balanced over 10 years.

🇪🇸🇷🇺🇲🇦🚨‼️ RUSSIAN GIRL ABOUT TO BE DEPORTED FROM SPAIN AFTER 20 YEARS

This Russian girl, Daria, has lived in Spain since she was 6. She studied and worked all her life there. She speaks Russian poorly and can’t write in Cyrillic, but Spain wants to deport her.

Daria: “Sanchez says you can get residency in Spain if you swim over here, but I’m being deported. My friends ask ‘Why? There war in your country?’

I have worked all my life here and they declined my residency, but they give it out as a gift to everyone else.”

I’m pretty sure she’s a good addition to Spain, given that she is integrated perfectly … she speaks Spanish perfectly and invested money to open a business to contribute to the economy, which she now has to close without properly opening due to the deportation notice.

This is idiotic! The whole immigration policy in the EU is really idiotic.

As for Flock cameras "keeping us safe," I live part-time in Las Vegas. The Strip casino-hotel district is surveilled to the millimeter, inside & out, with the very latest tech.

And in the very bullseye of this target the deadliest mass shooting in American history occurred.

[BenAris @bneeditor]

Your regular reminder that the start of The five-day Russo-Georgian War it was not a Russian invasion but caused by a Georgian propagation.

That’s not me saying this. It is the official conclusion of the EU investigation into the causes of the war.

The inquiry by Swiss diplomat Heidi Tagliavini found that Georgia fired the opening shots of the full-scale war, and that its assault on Tskhinvali which kicked the conflict off was not justified under international law.

Russia was however condemned for using “excessive force” which is a bit nuts given the basis of US military policy is “shock and awe” - the use of overwhelming force in order to bring any military conflict to a fast end

You can check this yourself. Look it up: former Swiss ambassador headed the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on the Conflict in Georgia, commonly called the Tagliavini Report, which was published on 30 September 2009.

Its most important conclusion was: Georgia started the large-scale shooting war, but responsibility for the conflict as a whole could not be assigned to Georgia alone.

Basically what is happening is that the U.S. increasingly needs foreign central banks to keep holding Treasuries even when they need dollar liquidity. In the old model, a country under stress could sell Treasuries to raise dollars and defend its currency. Under fiscal dominance, that becomes a problem for Washington because large scale reserve liquidation can push Treasury yields higher at exactly the wrong time, tightening mortgages, corporate credit and financial conditions while also raising the government’s own interest burden.

So the system is evolving toward a different model. Instead of foreign central banks selling Treasuries in a crisis, Washington has a growing incentive to let them borrow dollars against those Treasuries and keep the collateral on their balance sheets.

That is why the yen situation matters. The real vulnerability is not simply foreigners refusing to buy U.S. debt. It is that they already own enormous amounts of it and may need to sell it when markets are under stress. Maintaining dollar dominance increasingly means building enough liquidity and collateral backstops around Treasuries that reserve holders never have to become forced sellers.
