I don’t know how anyone can still talk about “the AI revolution” with a straight face. Reuters story about a railroad company that has sunk $300,000 into “developing AI products” and appears to have made…a chatbot that doesn’t work?

If you want to make a real difference, donate directly to your local Food Bank.

When you buy food at a grocery store to place in a donation bin, you’re paying full retail prices. Food Banks don't.

We’d like to share a remembrance for Betty Reid Soskin, the oldest serving National Park Service ranger in the country, who has passed away. Her life and work helped preserve history, expand whose stories are told, and inspire generations to come.

Amazing!
This is my Christmas gift to my homeless neighbors, to the volunteers who get great joy from helping them…and, yes, to myself. Merry Christmas to all!

It is extremely difficult for Canada to defend itself from malign influence operations & information warfare, until it starts taking seriously - with legislation with teeth - the harm caused by dark money funded malicious disinfo pedlars, like #RebelNews.

I think Asha Rangappa is right — they are lining up the external and internal enemies. Or trying to. This is very risky and will almost certainly blow up in their faces.
I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.

Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

Homeless shelters and outreach spaces across Winnipeg put in a herculean effort overnight and throughout the day Thursday, as the first winter storm of the year, armed with winds gusting to 90 km/h, lashed the southern part of the province.

This is really serious and we ignore it at our peril. Those who are complaining about 🇨🇦’s increase in defence spending, are either naive, or acting like de facto 5th columnists. Drone technology in the arctic, is one area that needs increased R&D, like, yesterday.

NATO countries, including Canada, are falling behind Russia and China in the development of Arctic-capable drones — uncrewed aerial and land vehicles that are ideal for surveillance.

I agree. Either he didn't disclose it to his editors either and this is a colossal violation of conflict-of-interest rules, or he did, in which case someone has a monumental amount of explaining to do.
David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov.

He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.

My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence!

🚨 it's Paguritta, one of the cutest hermit crabs in the world!!!! 😍😍😍

I saw these in the Kerama islands, which are part of Okinawa (ie, political Japan, but closer to Taiwan). Perhaps that region is their hotspot

#Crustmas
Coral hermit crabs are exceptionally tiny. They make their homes in reef cavities, the diameter of a pencil. Taken on Green Island in Taiwan.

With five-year social media rules taking effect next year, the 2026 World Cup risks becoming one of the most expensive and least inclusive ever. High costs will price out many fans, while U.S. social media screening may exclude younger attendees who might have a more colorful online history.
