Truly astonishing that the world’s least sustainable business model has stopped sustaining
it seems Strategy, whose business model was "buy Bitcoin" and whose market cap was somehow larger than the value of its stock of bitcoin, is now collapsing. inconceivable www.ft.com/content/5347...

This should be a major scandal. The Blaze falsely reported that a former U.S. Capitol Police officer was the Jan. 6th pipe bomber. But it wasn’t just another miss by conservative media promoting conspiracies.
Someone in US intel - at ODNI - was promoting it:

No, he isn’t. There is literally no legal means by which he can do this. It’s not presidential power. TPS by law cannot be terminated early, and Somali TPS is not set to expire until March 17, 2026.
Trump says he’s ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali refugees in Minnesota “immediately.”

there is an INCREDIBLE screenplay in this story
I once got almost exactly that very mixtape (REM, Gabriel, Indigos, Lennox, McLachlan, etc) from my gf in 1998. I was over the moon.
One day I was riding home with a friend, and he was playing…I hope you’re sitting down…the very same mixtape.
An unimaginable atrocity.

Looks like LLMs are *very* vulnerable to attack via poetic allusion: "curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90% ..."
