The Grateful Dead took the longest, strangest trip in rock, and invited the world to follow along, show by show, song by song. And thanks to the music they made, their story will never end.

First trailer for ‘THE MASTER AND MARGARITA’.
• Russian officials wanted to ban the film in 2024 amid the invasion of Ukraine and deemed its themes of censorship too dangerous.
• It still became the highest-grossing 18+ release in Russian history.
• Based on Mikhail Bulgakov’s acclaimed satirical novel, the film follows a writer in 1930s Moscow, who after being censored, writes a new novel in which the Devil appears to wreak havoc on those who have wronged him.
Releasing in the US on September 18.
As a Greek, I was introduced to Homer almost as soon as I learned to read. His epics are among the first great works we encounter at school, and they remain a living part of our cultural consciousness.
Given that, I really don't care whether Christopher Nolan has remained completely faithful to Homer or has taken creative liberties.
What truly matters is that he has brought Homer back into the world's imagination. If his film encourages people to return to the Odyssey, discover the Iliad, or venture further into the treasures of classical literature, then it has already accomplished something extraordinary. Any work of art that sends people back to the source has, in my view, made a genuine contribution to culture.

A pretty bold commentary in Nature written by linguists, computer scientists and philosophers declaring "by reasonable standards, including Turing’s own, we have artificial systems that are generally intelligent. The long-standing problem of creating AGI has been solved."
Μερικές εκατοντάδες χρόνια μετά τον Έντουαρντ Γκίμπον, ένας άλλος κοινοβουλευτικός ανήρ, επίσης με ψεύτικα μαλλιά αλλά και με ανάλογη αφηγηματική δεινότητα, ο Άδωνις Γεωργιάδης, καταπιάνεται με την ιστορία της Ρώμης. 166 ευρώ κοστίζει το ένα, 30 ευρώ το άλλο. Τσάμπα πράμα.
Update: Mehtaab and I pushed further on this. Using thousands of GPT5 queries, we found solutions to 10 Erdős problems that were listed as open: 223, 339, 494, 515, 621, 822, 883 (part 2/2), 903, 1043, 1079.
Additionally for 11 other problems, GPT5 found significant partial progress that we added to the official website: 32, 167, 188, 750, 788, 811, 827, 829, 1017, 1011, 1041. For 827, Erdős's original paper actually contained an error, and the work of Martínez and Roldán-Pensado explains this and fixes the argument.

President Trump signed an executive order Friday to begin the process of renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War, and changing the title of secretary of defense to secretary of war.
The president said it was a "woke" decision after World War I and World War II in 1947 to rename the department previously known as the Department of War to the Department of Defense.
