France made this wastefulness illegal cause it’s cruel and only causes more waste issues. Any food market or restaurant over 400 square meters has to donate all their good unsold food to charities and are fined if they do anything like this. That law should be applied everywhere
If you sum up the last 20 years of the US-Iran relationship, it reads like this:
US: Do not peruse nuclear weapons
Iran: Ok we signed the nuclear proliferation treaty
US: Too bad, you’re getting sanctioned
Iran: Ok
US: Stop pursuing nuclear weapons
Iran: We’re not; we’re generating energy just like other countries.
US: Sign a deal and have us inspect what you’re doing
Iran: Ok, deal signed, inspectors welcome
US: Too bad, deal canceled and you’re getting more sanctions
Iran: Ok
US: Stop pursuing nukes or else
Iran: Look, we did everything you’ve asked
US: Too bad, we’re gonna bomb you anyway. That girl school looks like a good target *BOOM*
Israel: *bombs Iran
Iran: *defends itself
Israel: “The evil regime of Iran is targeting our civilians”
US: “Iran is cutting heads off babies”
Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war. Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.
I am focused on making sure that every New Yorker is safe. I have been in contact with our Police Commissioner and emergency management officials. We are taking proactive steps, including increasing coordination across agencies and enhancing patrols of sensitive locations out of an abundance of caution.
Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.
I have to admit my huge miscalculation on race relations. In 2009 when Obama became the president, I thought that America was on road to racial unity. Boy, was I wrong.
I was a firefighter in Detroit for 34 years. To my surprise (naivety), I started hearing white firefighters around me saying disparaging things about Obama. They somehow seemed to hate him.
Many called Obama the most racially dividing president we've ever had. These were men I'd risked my life with for 20 or 30 years, coming out as racists.
That was the start of our current racial divide, not because Obama separated the races. But, because his skin color separated the races.
Then came Trump, a known racist. He gave racists the ability to stand up and proudly be racist. I saw white firefighters around me embrace Trump and try to tell me how he's done more for Black Americans than any other president.
Today, American racists are as proud as they can possibly be as their president destroys any and everything black. Including his new Obama ape video.
Trump is currently seeking paths to remain in power forever and he must be stopped.
Well, I was definitely wrong about racial unity and today we are on a road to increasing white power (Making America Great Again).
The one good thing that Trump has done is expose the racists we really didn't know about.
I think it's time for Democrats to stop being so docile and to go on the offense. One man should not be allowed to destroy a nation.
I talked about this a bit yesterday, but what we're seeing is that Supply Side Economics (trickle down) does not work when the ultra wealthy won't play ball. And the Trump administration has been GUNG HO on enshrining Supply Side Economics.
The main idea is that if you alleviate the financial burden on the ultra rich individuals and corporations, primarily by reducing their taxation, then you end up creating a massive surplus in capital at the tippy-top among those elites. With all that extra capital, they can create new jobs, new investment opportunities, increase wages, provide better benefits, you get the idea.
Part one of the plan worked. They got CONSIDERABLY more wealthy. Part 2 failed completely. They took that extra wealth and invested in 2 main things. First, they made moves to preserve their wealth by investing it in assets or borrowing against liquidity to basically avoid paying more in taxes. They lobbied and donated tons of money to individual politicians to make sure they continue to promote policies that keep them wealthy. And second, they invested in things like AI and automation which does not create new jobs but instead finds ways to make jobs unnecessary. They don't need you anymore for many of the things they used to need you for.
In summation, the wealthy got more wealthy, jobs got cut, and they made moves to make sure no one can come for their new cash.
Pete Hegseth complained that the Pentagon sent officers to Harvard to study strategy and leadership — and they came back “too Harvard,” with “globalist, radical ideologies.”
In other words:
The military sent people to learn diplomacy, history, and international law.
They came back thinking critically.
And that made him uncomfortable.
He doesn’t want officers who understand the world. He wants soldiers who don’t question power.
Jeff Bezos fired more than 300 people and didn’t even arrange for them to get safely home.
Staffers were abandoned in foreign countries and war zones and are having to crowd source to get home.
One of the richest men in the world left them behind.
Nvidia “paused” gaming GPUs because the math made the decision for them.
In Q3 fiscal 2026, Nvidia’s data center revenue was $51.2 billion. Gaming was $4.3 billion. That means gaming is 7.5% of total revenue. Five years ago, gaming was Nvidia’s largest segment. Today it rounds to a rounding error.
Here’s where it gets interesting. Every GDDR7 chip Nvidia allocates to an RTX 5080 sells a $999 GPU at ~60% margin. That same memory routed to a Blackwell AI accelerator goes into a system selling for tens of thousands of dollars at 75%+ margin. Per gigabyte of memory allocated, the AI path generates roughly 10x the revenue.
Gigabyte’s CEO said the quiet part out loud weeks ago: Nvidia’s strategy is now “revenue per gigabyte.” They’re not optimizing for units shipped. They’re optimizing for dollars extracted per chip of memory consumed.
This is the first year in three decades Nvidia won’t release a new gaming GPU. AMD and Intel have also pushed next-gen gaming GPUs to 2027. The entire consumer GPU market is being starved simultaneously because every fab and every memory supplier is making the same calculation Nvidia is.
The Rubin gaming GPUs (RTX 60 series) won’t hit mass production until end of 2027 at the earliest, which means consumer launch in 2028. That’s a three-year gap between GPU generations. The longest in the history of discrete graphics.
Nvidia is no longer a gaming company that does AI. It’s a $130 billion AI company that maintains a legacy gaming business as brand marketing. And this is the quarter that math became undeniable.
