@SolomonYue Dear @SolomonYue, thank you for your steadfast support for Hongkongers!
With HK DED expiring in 2/2027 and evolving immigration policies under the Trump admin, we seek your insights on how to constructively advocate for an extension or alternative.
Grateful for your advice! 🙏
@JoeTalkShow@Shawn_Farash Gary’s story has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.
It’s not Venezuelan code. It’s CIA/MI6/London globalists’s code. Always has been.

(1/3) Urban explorer grp HK URBEX’s new video takes us inside the abandoned headquarters of #AppleDaily that was once a buzzing newsroom serving Hongkongers every day. In a city where dissent is criminalized, ppl are using metaphor to keep memory alive.

1h later...new massive computing breakthrough
New brain inspired chip learns on its own, no massive AI training needed
A team led by Dr. Joseph S. Friedman at The University of Texas at Dallas has developed a neuromorphic computing prototype, a brain inspired computer that learns and makes predictions using far fewer computations and much less energy than traditional AI systems.
Unlike conventional computers that separate memory and processing, neuromorphic hardware integrates both, mimicking how neurons and synapses in the brain adapt and learn.
The team used magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), nanoscale magnetic devices that strengthen connections between artificial neurons based on activity, following Hebb’s law ("neurons that fire together, wire together").
This breakthrough, published in Communications Engineering, is a big step toward energy efficient, self learning computers that can bring powerful AI capabilities to mobile devices without massive training costs.
Scientists for years said they had proof that climate change was accelerating sea level rise. But that's not what the evidence shows. They knew the truth and misled the public. And now I have a long email exchange with a top scientist that shows how they did it. Massive scandal.
“The CCP is clearly prioritizing the high-tech economy, particularly the hard-tech side of it,” @Gdp198 told @thewirechina. “Part of this is related to the self-reliance campaign, but it’s also just Xi’s vision of what techno-industrial growth looks like.”
Meanwhile, sectors more associated with domestic consumer spending and the country’s under-pressure property sector have grown sluggishly, if at all, so far this year, @economicsnoah wrote.
Hong Kong has already installed almost 4,000 CCTV cameras under a police crime-fighting programme. That number will increase to a total of 60,000 by 2028, according to documents submitted to the legislature.

NEW: CNN's Van Jones reveals he got a DM from Charlie Kirk calling for personal dialogue just one day before he was killed.
"Charlie Kirk and I were not friends at all. In fact, the last week of his life, we were beefing hard."
"The day before he died, [Charlie] did something that shocked me..."
A very smart move. Not only will it deter questionable H1B applicants, it will also put pressure on employers to carefully screen applicants before sponsoring them, and ensure that company strategies align with the government's foreign policy. It kills three birds with one stone.
Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion.
Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.
