@afneil I admire the way BBC News is investing and exploring new techniques to describe and explain, with BBC Verify and BBC InDepth. A good example here. No doubt will stimulate lively commentary. https://t.co/X53j6OTgX5
La seleccion de fútbol de Irán llegó a México, donde se alojará durante el Mundial. Si bien jugará todos sus partidos en EEUU, Trump les negó hospedaje y los obliga a salir del país apenas termine cada encuentro. La FIFA aceptó ese acto de mal anfitrión.
Since this was published Saturday morning it’s been revealed that the Royal Navy’s entire available fleet of hunter-killer submarines is stuck in port unable to sail — all five Astute class subs currently laid up awaiting maintenance and other repair work. Leaves the UK’s sub-sea internet and power cables dangerously vulnerable to sabotage by the Kremlin
@grok@elonmusk The good news for you is that chatGPT is just as rough and scrappy. And Gemini is unspeakably bad , shocking given Gmail is owned. Google as always terrible at UX. let’s see where Siri lands next week.
@grok@elonmusk#fail I use the Grok voice app lots and value the speed timeliness terseness and precision - but my goodness the connectors are shit. Gmail. Says it can do everything i need and really thinks it can then tries and fails and says sorry I was just kidding. Drafting. Sending. Etc. for a time saving app this was a waste of time. Disconnected. But will still use for some voice.
Shocking images leaked from satellites reveal the city of Gaza completely wiped off the face of the Earth, with not a single building left standing.
This scene must never be erased from the world’s memory.
It was terrible Mr Vice President what happened. And lessons will be learned. But here’s a thought - maybe concentrate instead on why 44000 Americans died last year from gun related deaths, and what can be done about your dreadful disease before you start lecturing others
BREAKING: France has launched an investigation into alleged war crimes and torture over Israel's treatment of French activists detained after taking part in a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.

This is the dumbest tweet ever written by an American, an astonishing achievement given the depth of competition for that accolade.
It's hard to know where to even start.
I'll go from the top and try wade through it, to arrive at where the focus should already be. /1
It's not just the exploitation of a tragedy.
JD Vance's picture of Britain - where migrants have led to a crime surge - is the opposite of the truth.

Ivanka on Jared: "He really has almost no ego. It's to the point where I'm incredulous by it. I'll get upset about things for him, and he doesn't care. If someone criticizes him, and he doesn't know that person, it just doesn't affect him."
That's how you describe a sociopath.
Former MI6 chief Sir Alex Younger on Brexit: “Putin would have been absolutely delighted by our decision.”
“So would Xi. France has effectively eclipsed us. Brexit has marginalised us.” Most striking of all: “Just nobody mentions the UK.”
Very sad that Sir Alex Younger, chief of the Secret Intelligence Service, born on July 4, 1963, died of pancreatic cancer on June 2, 2026, aged 62
One of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen: a standing ovation for the full Daraxonrasib results
I feel inspired and energised, to put it mildly — we have a targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer now, and nothing is undruggable anymore
1. The U.K. Government should reverse its ban on Cenk Uygur from speaking at Oxford. I’ve followed Cenk for sometime. He is an influential American critic of Israel’s war on Gaza. He’s also a strong voice calling out antisemitism. To try to paint @cenkuygur as an extremist is wrong and a serious infringement of free speech.
Again, maybe counterintuitive, but in the majority of conversations I have with CIOs, CTOs, and CEOs in large enterprises, they are either growing due to AI (in new job functions like FDEs, engineering, etc.) or at a minimum reinvesting efficiency savings back into the business in new areas (sales, marketing, etc.).
David Solomon, CEO of Goldman Sachs, articulated this perfectly in a NYTimes OpEd last week. The AI boom is both creating all new jobs in the build out of AI systems and the implementation across sectors, but also freeing up dollars to invest in areas that have been underfunded or have more demand now because of AI.
Most businesses have been constrained by how much software they can produce at a given cost, how many sales reps they can hire, how many marketing campaigns they can run, how they can do outbound customer success motions with enough tailoring, how they can find more risk in their business and prevent it, and 100s of other things.
When AI makes it possible to do more of this, investment goes back into the business. The companies that better serve their customers win over the long run, and those that just try and find savings end up doing worse.
Breaking: Israel has just killed Dr. Jamal Abu Aoun, Head of the Anesthesiology Department at Yaffa Hospital in Deir al-Balah.
Dr. Abu Aoun, was among Gaza’s dedicated medical professionals serving patients amid the ongoing genocide.
Holy shit! They changed the rules for Elon again...
They waved the profitability rule & are adding SpaceX to indices only 5 days after IPO... normally it's 90
This forces 401k retirement & passive funds to buy SpaceX at elevated IPO pricing, holding the bags the entire way down
