13 workers left Palantir and issued this statement.
"Palantir is increasingly complicit, normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a 'revolution' led by oligarchs. We must resist this trend."
The Gaza documentary “NAZA” earned a massive 24.5-minute #VeniceFilmFestival ovation as the crowd cheered and waved Palestinian flags.
This marks the longest-ever standing ovation at Venice, beating the 22-minute ovation for “The Voice of Hind Rajab” last year, and perhaps the longest at any film festival, period.
The new documentary was shot at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv and shows “in detail the systems behind Israel’s calculated mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza,” per an official synopsis. Abraham and Szor interviewed 24 Israeli military intelligence officers and soldiers — all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity — who were involved in the surveillance or remote killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Their appearance and voices were digitally altered to disguise their identities.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
GERMANY 🇩🇪 is deploying their 45th Armored Brigade to #Lithuania to defend NATOs eastern flank 🇱🇹
This is the first permanent #German combat brigade stationed abroad since WWII.
5000 men and more than 2000 pieces of combat equipment will be stationed close to the #Belarusian border.
THANK YOU GERMANY FOR PROTECTING EUROPE 🇪🇺🫡🇩🇪
Kushner is not an amateur. Since 2017, he has illegally back-channeled hundreds of millions of laundered funds for foreign nations. He has created proposals to overthrow nations, ethnically cleanse and steal land through corrupt parastatal schemes. He's just not that good at it.
Every September we mark Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. This year it’s more personal for me.
More than 330,000 American men this year will hear the words we did last spring when I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. By the time we found it, it had already spread to my bones.
When prostate cancer is caught early, the five-year survival is close to 100%.
So have the conversation with your doctor. Don’t put it off.
If you're at average risk, that conversation should start around 50, and the guidelines now say screening every 2 to 4 years. If you're a Black man, start it at 45 or earlier. You are nearly 70% more likely to get this disease and 2 to 4 times more likely to die from it. Which is an outrage in the richest country in the world.
If your father or your brother had prostate cancer, start the conversation at 45, and even earlier if more than one of them did.
I am deeply grateful to the doctors, nurses and other medical professionals who helped to control my cancer and who continue to take such good care of me. Their skill, dedication, and compassion mean so much. The radiation treatment from last fall worked as intended, and I continue to do the things I care about, like finishing my memoir.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out and continues to keep me and my family in your prayers. We appreciate every single one of you.
It’s my hope and prayer that by sharing our experience and being part of this important conversation, we can help save lives. Talk to your doctors. Ask the hard questions. Do it for yourself, and do it for the people who love you.
And no matter what, keep the faith. God bless you.
A deep property tax cut is also likely to drive up home prices in Florida, which is one reason the Florida Realtors — whose members make their living on sales commissions that rise alongside housing prices — is so invested in getting the amendment passed.

My statement on Israel's decision to ban me and 10 other British MPs from entry.
"I have visited all parts of Palestine on several occasions, where I have witnessed the horrors of occupation, as well as the resilience and humanity of the Palestinian people.
They are the ones who suffer from Israel's apartheid. It is their freedom which is egregiously curtailed, alongside thousands of Palestinian refugees who are denied the right of return.
As the world wakes up to the genocide in Gaza, it is shocking that Israel continues to deny entry to UN investigators and international journalists. Israel doesn't want the world to see what it is doing - but we can never give up in our attempts to expose the truth.
That is the real scandal. Israel’s genocide cannot go unpunished - and I will keep speaking up for peace, freedom and justice for the Palestinian people."
