Insólitas las tapas de los diarios/portales 🇺🇾

De las 4 que revisé, ninguna tenía como nota principal el fallecimiento de Moratorio o por lo menos la visita de Prevost

En vez de eso eran:

Resultado de fútbol
Encuesta sobre Orsi
Tragedia Fray Bentos
Peña-Paraguay

Gracias por tu trabajo en un momento de tanta angustia e incertidumbre.
Gracias por inspirar a tantos jóvenes en el valor de la ciencia.

I recently interviewed my good friend, and top US expert on Latin America, @mburgoyne. We discussed:

His service in Iraq
US unilateral vs multilateral approaches toward Latin America
Venezuela

And more! Link in thread

@revisa Seen this movie before. Also, Congress is at its lowest level of power and influence in decades if not ever

[Pablo Brum @pgbrum]

Congress is irrelevant. Don't extrapolate too much in any direction

@lancehenriksen @SaraJaneRedmond Hell yeah

@benjamingedan I tend to think what you say toward the end will be pretty much inevitable

Problem I saw with Flavio is, he has what I call boarding school face aka "Nepo face". You see this often with children of wealthy powerful charismatic fathers. Because they've never done anything hard, they are very often soft and the best they can hope for is to maintain their parent's empire if structures around them are favourable, but they aren't fighters

The opposite of boarding school face is "Mafia face", these people may be wealthy elites, but you can see the grit and power just by looking at them. To rise in a revolutionary environment you need Mafia face, complimented with intelligence and charm to win over the people

Flavio's father Jair Bolsonaro has Mafia face. Trump has Mafia face, same with Putin, Lula, Orban, Netanyahu has it too

A great example is Tsar Nicholas II who was overthrown by the Bolsheviks. His father Alexander III was a badass but Nicholas II had Nepo face, and his softness ultimately lost the empire

All the Latin American leaders who led in chaotic revolutionary environments, like Chavez, Pinochet, Castro had mafia face. Milei, sorry to say, does not have it

Flavio can't lead in this type of environment, his only hope is to exist in an environment where things are going well and he is being propped up

Bad misfire by China re: Mbappé

Gemini 4 Argon is my favorite Google model and by a lot. Finally!

[Pablo Brum @pgbrum]

Update: Gemini 3.7 is also deeply 👎, at least on @antigravity

Working with URLs is virtually impossible. Almost entirely hallucinated. There seems to be no grounding of any kind even when explicitly demanded

@lancehenriksen Watching it this week. Nothing like it

I spoke with Roman Sannikov, who’s spent decades navigating Russian cybercrime.

He began as an interpreter/translator - the youngest Russian linguist at the FBI, thrust into the world of cybercrime because of his IT skills.

[Pablo Brum @pgbrum]

Roman has enormous expertise in the depths of Russian threat activity: ransomware, infostealers, APTs, and more. In our chat he offers insights into Russian criminal actors' manipulation of Western LLMs, even ones with guardrails!
