When I fell asleep at the Garden, the Knicks were Winning. Then when I wake up, I see the Spurs have "won." It seems that in the 4th Quarter, the so-called referees kept "finding" Points for the Spurs. Rigged! Fake Game!

Sometimes it can feel like nothing matters. That nothing you do makes a difference.

But did you know that in 1943, after the Nazis rounded up the Jewish spouses of non-Jewish Germans in Berlin, to send them to the death camps, their families gathered in the street outside where they were being held and protested for seven days. These families risked death, and do you know what happened?

The Gestapo released most of the detainees, almost 2,000 people. In Nazi Germany... in 1943... ordinary citizens stood in the street, and their loved ones came home.

If a citizen can make a difference in 1943 Germany, you can make a difference in 2026 America.

Read about this story and other ordinary acts of courage throughout history in my piece with Steve Silverman. https://t.co/eVd9w2gp7t

More people need to know that King Tutankhamun owned a dagger made from material not native to Earth.

Scientists found the blade was made from meteorite iron, meaning the metal came from space.

This is basically a replay of what happened to Jim Henson. Seems similarly to be a case of a really hard-working guy who was too busy to stop & get proper medical treatment that would have saved his life.

In case anyone isn’t aware, Trump is demanding Zambia to hand over its mineral rights by end of day tomorrow or the U.S. gov’t will cut off the country’s access to the AIDS medications that are literally keeping its citizens alive.

Just thought y’all should know.

Recent research from Kyoto University reveals that female dogs actively assess human competence—while male dogs do not.

Female dogs clearly prefer approaching humans who successfully complete tasks, such as opening food containers, over those who fail. In contrast, male dogs show no preference and treat both competent and incompetent humans equally.

These findings, published in a study titled "Female dogs evaluate levels of competence in humans," indicate that female dogs exhibit a more advanced form of social evaluation, particularly when food or resources are involved. They pay closer attention to human actions and their outcomes, using this information to decide who is the most reliable partner for obtaining rewards.

This competence bias suggests female dogs are more sensitive to efficiency and social results than previously thought. For dog owners, it means your female companion isn't just loyal—she's also quietly evaluating your ability to provide. These results highlight an intriguing sex difference in canine social cognition, potentially evolved to enhance females' chances of securing resources and survival.

This story is actually insane:

• dude drops $2000 on a DJI robot vacuum like a lunatic
• refuses to use the normal app like a peasant
• Sammy Azdoufal fires up Claude to crack the API so he can drive it with an xbox controller
• Claude delivers the goods
• pulls an auth token from their servers, connects successfully
• except the system thinks he controls 7000 vacuums
• checks again
• yep, seven thousand
• DJI built authentication with zero device ownership verification
• any valid token works for any unit on the planet
• Sammy now has eyes inside homes across 24 countries
• live vacuum camera feeds everywhere
• full floor plans from the mapping data
• some guy in germany eating cereal at 3am, unaware his roomba is snitching
• one API call away from being the most informed burglar in history
• all he wanted was to steer his vacuum with a joystick
• does the right thing and reports it
• DJI fixes it in two days
• back to normal life with his stupidly expensive floor cleaner
• IoT companies stay undefeated at shipping garbage security

This is Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been imprisoned by ICE for a year.

He was about to get new prosthetic legs when he was kidnapped… and they won’t let him have them.

His health is declining & there’s been almost no media coverage.

No protests. No noise.

amazon's internal A.I. coding assistant decided the engineers' existing code was inadequate so the bot deleted it to start from scratch

that resulted in taking down a part of AWS for 13 hours and was not the first time it had happened

incredible
