"When breast cancer returned in 2023, Sue Singer braced for another grueling fight. What she didn’t expect was how the diagnosis would galvanize her son Owen, who turned his mother’s struggle into a mission to help others and raise money for charity."

You have 1 week until Mothers Day.

Idea: Give her a gift, that also supports a charity, founded by a son for his mother, that supports breast cancer research

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI.

AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

You have 18 days until Mothers Day.

Might I suggest getting your mom a present from a charity started by my son, in honor of his mother, that also funds breast cancer research

Mother's Day is coming up.

Don't wait until the last minute.

Get her a great gift, that also supports breast cancer research (so she will see it as an even better gift). Shop here:

Iran war costing and lessons on the "awful arithmetic of war"

Crunching the numbers of total targets hit and reported munitions replacement costs, the US spent roughly $4 million per target hit in Iran.

(Note, this does not include operational/personnel costs or effect on larger economy)

As wrote about in december in @DefenseOne

"If we don't figure out a way to fight far more cheaply, we won’t be able to afford to win a single battle."

"Even the simplest naval mines can strike fear into mariners or throttle traffic through a choke point, for no weapon has sunk more warships in the past 75 years. Yet the mines of the future will be far more capable and dangerous."

"The creation of the nonprofit corporation Cancer Kicks is an act of profound love by a teenage son for his mother, but getting to the point of operation proved an exercise in prioritizing action over inertia and sourcing assistance."

"The Quantum Curtain"
https://t.co/Agn43p3qBk

Your Fictional Intelligence #weekendread from Useful Fiction and @DefenseOne

Discussions of quantum computing regularly predict the end of digital secrecy, which would have society-altering consequences. But what if the opposite happens? If quantum encryption software becomes available to citizens around the world, digital secrets might become harder to harvest, altering intelligence collection and national security.
