This is troubling for multiple reasons, but one big one is companies won’t want to invest in R&D and clinical trials if they don’t think they can get a fair regulatory review—which is at the end of a long and extremely expensive process.

Yes, a bit late perhaps, but we've gone to 5 Slices / Severe. No, won't be a blizzard, but the NWS is now predicting 18-20 for Boston, the very heart of the Greater French Toast Region. And the governor is heading to The Bunker! At least for a 12:30 p.m. press conference.

It was pretty widely conceded that Maduro stole the last election in Venezuela. That argues for U.N. action, not an illegal invasion by Trump. And if Trump had succeeded in stealing the 2020 election, that would have argued for U.N. action as well.

What the actual fuck, Apple
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that women are being disappeared, tortured, and imprisoned in Saudi Arabia for espousing feminist views online.
Okay friends, it's time to talk about Manahel al-Otaibi - everyone gather 'round.
al-Otaibi was a 29-year old feminist activist in Saudi Arabia when she was jailed for 11 years for charges related to her choice of clothing and her online posts.

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.
