“Our issue is not just Palestine, our issue is killing every non-Muslim. We will pursue Jews and Christians all over the world. Either they convert to Islam or we’ll kill them!”

Report da sempre e su ogni argomento racconta quando va bene mezze verità, quasi sempre fatti alterati e conclusioni raffazzonate, sempre smentiti dagli esperti di settore che si trovano a commentare le inchieste. Da sempre così. Tragicamente ci cascano anche i pm.

[Ermes Antonucci @ErmesAntonucci]

Sabato ho scritto un lungo articolo raccontando come è andata a finire un’inchiestona trasmessa nel 2016 da @reportrai3 su una presunta truffa da parte delle banche sui diamanti da investimento: le denunce di Report, trasformate in accuse dalla procura di Milano, sono crollate in sede di giudizio in primo grado, in appello e infine in Cassazione. Tutti i giudici hanno stabilito che non c’è stata alcuna truffa e nessun “rigonfiamento” dei prezzi dei diamanti. Anzi, hanno censurato le indagini dei pm che si sono basate sul recepimento delle denunce di Report, senza verifiche tecniche. Denunce che a loro volta si basavano su errori grossolani (come confrontare il prezzo dei diamanti da investimento con il prezzo indicato nel listino Rapaport, che però è il listino dei diamanti all’ingrosso…). Intanto la società di un imprenditore è stata distrutta e quest’ultimo ha trascorso 11 mesi in carcere ingiustamente.
Bene, il conduttore di Report @SigfridoRanucci (che vive sotto scorta) ha definito la mia inchiesta “articolo killer”, aggiungendo che è stato scritto da un giornalista (il sottoscritto) “noto alle cronache”. A cosa si riferisce? In che modo un'inchiesta che spiega, carte alla mano, come sono andate le cose è un articolo killer (e di chi/cosa)? Ma soprattutto, a quali cronache sarei noto?
Sono sicuro che l’alfiere della libertà di informazione e di parola non avrà problemi a rispondere. In caso contrario dovremmo concludere che si è di fronte soltanto a un alfiere di allusioni dal tono diffamatorio.

Sono 4 anni che chiediamo che in Ucraina parli la diplomazia, ma Draghi come inviato di pace anche no. Chi mette gli italiani davanti al ricatto "condizionatori o pace" e punta sull'escalation militare non costruisce ponti: li brucia

[Ole Lehmann @itsolelehmann]

Demis Hassabis says he can cure every disease in 10 years.

Most people roll their eyes when they hear this, but I don't.

Demis is the guy who just won the Nobel Prize for solving protein folding with AI (a problem biologists had been stuck on for 50 years).

But that was just one milestone in his much grander plan.

In 2010, he founded DeepMind with a 2-part mission: "solve intelligence, then use it to solve everything else."

Step 1: make AI good enough to do real science.
Step 2: point that AI at humanity's biggest problems.

Step one was AlphaFold.

He used AI to figure out the 3D shape of every protein in nature (which is basically what every drug attaches to).

Demis said it would have taken "a billion years of PhD time" to do by hand.

Step two is curing all disease.

And as of today, step two is fully funded.

Isomorphic Labs (his AI drug discovery company inside Google) just raised $2.1B led by Thrive Capital.

Here's where the money goes and what Demis thinks happens next:

> Drug discovery currently takes 5-10 years and costs billions per drug. That math is why most diseases don't have good treatments today.

> AI fixes the math. Their drug design engine compresses development from years to months. Maybe weeks.

> Isomorphic's first AI-designed cancer drug enters human trials this year.

> Their pipeline expands beyond the current 17 programs across cancer, immune diseases, and heart disease into more health domains.

> The endgame is personalized medicine: drugs designed overnight for your specific biology and your specific disease.

That last one is the whole point.

Today's drugs are mass-produced for an "average" patient who doesn't really exist.

So most existing treatments work inconsistently from person to person, and most rare diseases never get a treatment at all (no market = no drug).

When drug design gets fast and cheap, that whole calculus flips.

Cancer variants get drugs designed for that specific variant, rare diseases get treatments because economics stop mattering, and drug-resistant infections get new drugs faster than they can evolve.

That's what curing every disease actually looks like.

Now imagine what your life looks like in 2036.

A doctor draws your blood, sequences your genome, sends your disease profile to an AI.

By morning the AI has designed a custom drug for your specific biology.

Side effects, dosage, drug interactions all worked out before you take the first pill.

You and your kids never see a cancer ward.

That's what $2.1B is buying today.

Demis was right about AlphaFold.

If you consider the possibility that he's right again, every disease alive today is on borrowed time.

L’ex grande Russia. Un paese ormai sull’orlo del collasso militare ed economico. I bombardamenti ucraini in Russia sono una quotidianità d colpiscono quasi ovunque. Il fronte è sostanzialmente statico e i droni ucraini ormai colpiscono la logistica russa in profondità anche oltre cento km.

[Ukr Embassy to Italy @UKRinIT]

Russia’s return to the Venice Biennale is a disgrace to those who enabled it, in defiance of democratic values, moral responsibility, and principled international response to Russia’s brutal war against Ukraine.

Silence and the ignoring of Russia’s crimes in times of war cease to be a position outside politics and instead become a form of complicity.

One cannot turn a blind eye to the fact that culture in Russia is inseparable from its militaristic regime. The Russian pavilion at the Biennale, with ties to Russia’s military-industrial complex and political leadership, is further evidence of this.

Russian culture at the Venice Biennale is inseparable from Russia’s war crimes, its systematic terror, and its policies aimed at the destruction of Ukraine’s national identity.

We are grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine and opposes the normalization of Russia’s war, crimes, and propaganda.

We call on those who support Russia’s return to the Venice Biennale to remember the names of Ukrainian artists killed by Russia and confront the reality of what they are justifying: war, death, human suffering and destruction.

I droni ucraini dell’SBU hanno colpito la raffineria Lukoil di Perm, città russa a 1.500 km dai confini🇺🇦. L’impianto, con una capacità di 13 milioni di tonnellate annue, fornisce carburante anche all'esercito.

Le sanzioni più efficaci all’economia russa sono quelle imposte dalle forze armate di Kyiv.

Death Valley National Park is experiencing its first major superbloom in a decade as of March/April 2026, driven by record winter rainfall (1.7 – 2.5+ inches) that transformed the desert landscape with vibrant carpets of yellow, pink, and purple flowers.

Satellite images from the russian holiday town Tuapse show catastrophic burning from space. Black oil is still raining down on the beaches. Tourists are furious. The war russia started is finally reaching every single corner of the country.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

The future is already on the front line – and Ukraine is building it. These are our ground robotic systems. For the first time in the history of this war, an enemy position was taken exclusively by unmanned platforms – ground systems and drones. The occupiers surrendered, and the operation was carried out without infantry and without losses on our side.

Ratel, TerMIT, Ardal, Rys, Zmiy, Protector, Volia, and our other ground robotic systems have already carried out more than 22,000 missions on the front in just three months. In other words, lives were saved more than 22,000 times when a robot went into the most dangerous areas instead of a warrior. This is about high technology protecting the highest value – human life.

From the congratulatory address to the workers of Ukraine’s defense-industrial complex (2/3).

@aquavoice I’ve been trying it for a few days and it’s impressive, even in my native language Italian. A bit annoying the back and forth to activate and the need to switch to other keyboards for autocorrection, if needed.
