@walls_jason1 @EV_ChargeRight Very cool. As an EV owner and proud father of a son studying to be an electrician this checks off a number of boxes.

There’s nothing like breaking a US Marine’s bones in order to prevent him from speaking out against a senseless, pathetic, stupid war.

This man is a hero. The people getting us into a needless war which kills Americans are who we should be pushing back on.

🚨 Rep. Neguse just exposed a $143 million no-bid contract live on camera:

The company has no headquarters. No website. No prior federal contracts.

It was incorporated 8 days before receiving the contract.

Its registered address belongs to a political operative.
One of its subcontractors is a political firm tied directly to Kristi Noem from her time as South Dakota governor.
Neguse asked Noem where the company is headquartered.

“I don’t know.”

$143 million of taxpayer money. Vanished into a ghost company. Connected to the Secretary of Homeland Security herself.

This is the agency running DOGE. Cutting waste. Eliminating fraud.

It is good for Democrats that Trump is turning tariffs (an issue where independent voters disapprove of Trump's policies by a 3 to 1 margin) into a test of loyalty for Republicans, who now have to choose between facing his animus or being on the wrong side of a 72-24 issue.

The fun about being a beginner is that you make progress fast.

Unfortunately, you don’t know whether you’re progressing in the right direction.

Whichever system you encounter first tends to be the one you adopt — at least, to start with. But sooner or later, you’ll hit your first obstacle.

What now? Did you choose the wrong path? Do you need to take a different route? And if so, which one?

If you chose your first path by chance rather than through deliberate research, your doubts are amplified.

You have zero conviction. And it’s human nature to look at the system rather than yourself as the problem.

The doubts then get worse as you learn about alternative systems, sometimes stating the polar opposite to what you first learnt.

Who’s right?

Both could be. But only one will be right for you.

The million-dollar question is twofold: how you find the right system, and how you know you’ve found it.

great post from Kyna, I enjoyed the audio version

Lost in the news about Trump’s illegal tariffs is something also quite important: they didn’t work.

Trump promised tariffs would shrink the trade deficit. Instead, the U.S. trade deficit hit $901 billion in 2025, one of the largest ever.

Americans paid higher prices, business faced huge uncertainty, and the core problem wasn’t even addressed.

One can only conclude that “Liberation Day” was a total con from the start.

Simone Segouin, mostly known by her codename, Nicole Minet, was only 18-years-old when the Germans invaded. Her first act of rebellion was to steal a bicycle from a German military administration, and to slice the tires of all of the other bikes and motorcycles so they couldn't pursue her. She found a pocket of the Resistance and joined the fight, using the stolen bike to deliver messages between Resistance groups.

She was an extremely fast learner and quickly became an expert at tactics and explosives. She led teams of Resistance fighters to capture German troops, set traps, and sabotage German equipment. As the war dragged on, her deeds escalated to derailing German trains, blocking roads, blowing up bridges and helping to create a German-free path to help the Allied forces retake France from the inside. She was never caught.

Segouin was present at the liberation of Chartres on August 23, 1944, and then the liberation of Paris two days later. She was promoted to lieutenant and awarded several medals, including the Croix de Guerre. After the war, she studied medicine and became a pediatric nurse. She passed away at the age of 97 in 2023.

Not all heroes wear capes.

I haven't flipped from being an AI optimist to being an AI doomer. But I am definitely more worried about AI risk than I was a few months ago -- especially about bioterror.
