This was posted from official Trump Admin Department of War CTO account, and then reposted by the White House official account.

Do with this information what you will.

Whether people are willing to admit it or not, Trump and his administration lean into the whole Q thing.

Hanging out with our friends who have kids has surfaced a model of child development I didn't know existed, and all the moms seem to share it.

Mom view: Every episode in a child's life is accretive and compounding. If kid A says his first words at 13 months and kid B not until 14, kid A is permanently a month ahead, it's purely the fault of kid B's parents, and kid A keeps that edge forever unless they hustle to close the gap.

Dad view: Basically a fatalistic saturation curve. Each kid is climbing toward a genetically-set ceiling, and what varies is mostly the rate of approach, not the height. As all the kids near the ceiling there's less room left to differ in, so early gaps compress instead of compounding. A slow start gets washed out by a faster climb later.

So when mom and dad see their kid can't fit the square peg in the square hole but their neighbors' kid can, mom is like "we have to do something NOW" and dad is like "it'll all even itself out" and they have a hard time communicating on exactly where their disagreement is.

Danmark har 37-timmarsveckor inkl betald 30minuterslunch. Dvs 7 timmars arbetsdag. Ändå är lönerna dubbelt så höga.

Hur är detta möjligt när man automatiskt blir svinfattig av kortare arbetsdagar?

250,000+ British girls.

What's included in this report is fucking harrowing:

- A baby was abused and had cigarettes stubbed out on it while the mother was forced to watch; the baby was then killed.
- Girls were set on fire.
- Girls were sent to “red rooms” to be tortured, some of them killed, some of it livestreamed.
- One girl was raped by a dog while men bet on whether it would vaginally or anally rape her.
- Girls were forced to have abortions with knitting needles.
- Glass bottles, keys, baseball bats, and other objects were forced inside them, some shattering.
- Girls were gang-raped by dozens of men at a time in “party houses.”
- Girls were whipped, hung upside down, suffocated, and urinated on.
- Girls as young as 5 or 6 were tied up and abused.
- Girls were locked in dog cages.
- Girls were branded with an “M” for Muhammad.
- Girls were threatened with being killed and fed to pigs.
- Girls were mocked for wearing a crucifix during the rapes.

All of this was carried out by predominantly South Asian, Pakistani men, with smaller numbers from Somali, Iranian, Syrian, Turkish, Bangladeshi, and Iraqi men.

And yet perpetrators were let off, authorities turned a blind eye, and it continues to this day because people are scared of being called racist.

Anyone who covered for this needs to face the death penalty alongside all of those who hurt these girls.

I'm glad Rupert Lowe and everyone else behind this put this together; it needs to be seen by everyone.

Every time I see a person that seemed to love coding say stuff about not writing code anymore and using agents instead, the first thought in my head is “oh they didn’t actually like coding…”

I’m positive that it is not universally true but this is my thought every time.

That water clarity is an engineering decision, and the math behind it is wilder than the video.

Roman aqueducts ran on gravity alone. No pumps, no pressure systems. Engineers carved channels with a gradient so shallow it borders on absurd. The Pont du Gard in southern France drops 2.5 centimeters over 275 meters. That's roughly the thickness of a coin over the length of three football fields. They surveyed that accuracy with plumb lines and wooden leveling instruments.

The clarity you're seeing is a direct product of flow velocity. Too steep and the water erodes the channel walls, picks up sediment, turns brown. Too flat and it stagnates. Roman engineers targeted a slope of about 20 centimeters per kilometer, which kept the water moving fast enough to stay fresh but slow enough to stay clear. Before the water reached the city, it passed through multi-chamber settling tanks where velocity dropped near zero. Suspended particles sank. Clean water flowed out the top into the next chamber. Repeat three or four times.

Pliny specified the minimum slope in writing. Vitruvius published the exact mortar ratio for hydraulic cement: one part lime to two parts volcanic ash for underwater work. The pozzolana from Pozzuoli reacted with water to form a calcium-aluminum-silicate compound that actually gets stronger the longer it sits submerged. Modern concrete degrades in water. Roman concrete bonds with it.

Scale the whole system and it gets harder to process. Eleven aqueducts fed Rome at its peak. Combined output: roughly 1 million cubic meters of water per day. That works out to about 250 gallons per person for a city of one million. Modern New York delivers about 125 gallons per person per day. Ancient Rome had access to double the per capita water supply of the largest city in the United States, running entirely on slope and stone.

The Trevi Fountain in Rome is still fed by one of them. Two thousand years, same source, same gravity, same water.

I don’t see how handmade everything doesn’t come sweeping back in a huge tsunami. Everything: films, music, games, art. All of it is going to be heavily human (and so obvious, and marketed that way). I’m feeling a deep craving for all of this. Maybe I’m getting old, or I’m feeling a desire everyone else is feeling.

The confounding factor is that virtually every big company is overstaffed by 2-4x and has been for decades. AI is the catalyst/excuse to finally fix that. Of course nobody wants to say this out loud.

i love how people are saying "if we write a sufficiently detailed specification, the agent can write all our code"

do you know what writing a sufficiently detailed specification that deterministically maps to what a computer's actions is? it's coding
