Arab states (finally) called on Hamas to surrender

Hamas: no disarmament unless Palestinian state is created with Jerusalem as capital

Trump fired the guys who report the job numbers (BLS Director)

Bukele extends El Salvador’s presidential terms to 6 years and removes term limits, setting him up to be Dictator For Life

Fed refused to cut rates again and Trump is all pissed off

News discussed:

There was a Biden vs Lettuce! The Lettuce won.

CrowdStrike Falcon is endpoint monitoring software. (doesn’t just protect from malicious code, also tracks assets). Reminder: Any time you have auto-update enabled for anything, you have installed a free backdoor

The UBI experiment actually showed a lot of major upsides! Increased entrepreneurship, people held out longer for better jobs (which contributed to the lower employment number!), young people got more edu and single parents did more child raising, people were able to leave abusive relationships. Looking at naive averages isn’t that useful. (also AskWhoCastsAI is one of my fav podcasts)

The World Central Kitchen fuckup has been investigated. “An Australian review into the deaths said the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) decided to launch missiles at the convoy after mistakenly believing it was being hijacked by Hamas”

Leaked Zoom recording of white house staff & DNC discussing how to best censor reports of Biden’s mental decline. Most interesting part is how polite the threats are. Stuff like ‘you say you’re reducing disinformation, but it looks like this disinformation about Biden’s decline is still up on facebook. I’m not sure that’s what reduction looks like’. Feels like Reality Is Becoming Impossible To Satirize

US recognizes challenger as winner as riots continue in Venezuela 

Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh killed by detonating a bomb planted in advance in his bedroom at the Iranian government official residence

Iran vows major counterstrikes on the 12th

Hamas names a top architect of the Oct 7 terror rampage as new leader 

Hezbollah top commander Fouad Shukur (behind recent rocket attack in Isreal) killed by airstrike in Lebanon

top Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif killed in Gaza

Days of riots in Britain. Backlash against immigration and perceived rise in crime. Best way to fix that is always beating up innocent minorities and destroying local businesses.

Walz!

Google lost antitrust suit

Twitter files antitrust lawsuit against GARM. Sounds like BS lawsuit, but GARM does legit threaten corps that advertise on media outlets that they want to destroy with standard “shame if your store burned down” mob tactics. Much like patent trolls what they do is legal but should get them jail/confiscation/blinding.

Russian prisoner exchange. The tween & teen kids of a spy couple discover they’re Russian on the flight over to Russia.

MegaQuake advisory in Japan 

In Bangladesh a government job quota system favoring the in-group sparked weeks of deadly riots (after over a decade of ratcheting authoritarianism and economic issues). Finally the prime minister fled the country after protestors stormed her residence, the president dissolved parliament, and the military is forming an interim govt.

BAGUETTE NEWS! Frenchman’s Giant Baguette is his undoing at the pole vault. (is offered $250k porn deal??) Joins acapella group.

More top people leave Open AI - cofounder John Schulman leaves to join Anthropic, president Greg Brockman takes extended leave of absence, a VP resigns.

accused 9/11 mastermind and two others gitmo got a plea deal, next day it was rescinded

Happy News!

“bridge editing” papers published in Nature promise more precise gene editing than CRISPR with fewer errors and disruptions.

Nanofiber molecules cause human cartilage to begin regeneration process, which humans can’t do in adulthood. Could lead to actual joint repair/regrowth. So far only on cell samples, not in humans.

Texas Heart Institute implants the first Total Artificial Heart. Made of titanium and don’t require anti-rejection medications. Uses rotary blood pump with a single moving part that utilizes a magnetically levitated rotor to greatly reduce friction and wear. Increases blood flow with demand to up to 12L/minute, allowing patients to exercise! Was only a place-holder for this surgery, but meant for long-term eventually. 3500 people on heart transplant list ATM.

Australia begins campaign to eradicate peanut allergy

Troop Deployment

Eneasz -  Kamala Harris is The Mask That Smiles

Wes - Don’t be a Baby About the Election

Support us on Substack!

News discussed:

The Ministry to Truth is dead? 

The director wanted to be able to edit tweets to add context

After 2 months of fighting, port city of Mariupol has fallen to Russia

NYT editorial urges Ukraine to consider surrender

Sweden and Finland applied for NATO membership

Turkey objects, claims they house Kurdish Separatists

Russia retaliated by cutting off gas to Finland

FDA shut down baby formula plant after voluntary recall in February.

Baby formula shortage results.

European formula is banned just because.

FactCheck.org says it’s “misinformation” to claim that the FDA isn’t awesome, and says the shortage isn’t anyone’s fault.

To solve this problem, congress passes a bill to give the FDA another $28M and allows food stamps (WIC) to cover more brands of formula. 

Also the military airlifted in 70,000 tons of formula from Germany. That’s enough for 9,000 babies and 18,000 toddlers for one week, and is not for retail, it’s going only to hospitals and clinics.

Elizabeth Warren Introduces Price-Gouging Bill

Quick analysis here

Twitter thread saying surge pricing ("gouging") should be mandatory

Insane racist kills 10 in supermarket shooting in Buffalo

Cites Great Replacement

That being said, leftists have been open about how replacing deplorables is a good thing.

Biden whoopsie on defending Taiwan vs China

Elon Musk accused of exposing himself to employee by “a friend” of employee, who pinky-swears that this totally happened.

Elon says he’ll vote Republican because Dems “have become the party of division & hate”

Tech stocks plummet, Musk tries to get better deal on Twitter purchase

Opening Argument on why It’s probably a pretext

Texas social media law allowed to go into effect

Text of the law

PopeHat thinks it’s bad

Afghan women will be forced to wear Burqas

Three schoolboys (age 13) are being taken to court in the US state of Wisconsin for sexual harrasement after one of them allegedly declined to use the they/them pronouns for a fellow student

StableCoins are dead, at least for now

Mercedes Lackey Cancelled

Happy News!

80,000 Hours releases climate change review endorsing “this is not an existential risk to the species”

New York Rolling Out Noise Law

“Something Weird” happening re Universe Expanding.
