The Luftwaffe’s rescue buoy (Rettungsboje) known to the RAF as ‘lobster pots’…
AJ Shankar, the chief executive of Oakland-based Everlaw, said his company advises customers to consider the software like “a smart intern” whose work has to be checked. That’s because no current AI program is free of what are known as “hallucinations,” where the bot makes incorrect assumptions and returns faulty information, Shankar said. As a result, AI can’t be relied upon yet to spit out flawless work.
Google has decided to remove and hide most of the Mountain Weekly News content. This started during the September 2023 algorithm update. So if you’re wondering what happened to us, we’re still here and creating incredible, beautiful and helpful product reviews and the type of content you have grown accustomed to from this website.
The one party that could actually clear this up with meaningful data and thorough explanations is Google, and it has instead chosen to vaguely and unilaterally state that I was incorrect. This is both deeply offensive to the people that report on the Search Engine Optimization industry for a living, and those affected by the opaque and mercurial updates made to Google Search.
“NARA was harassing Trump throughout 2021 for what they insisted were government records apparently WITHOUT contacting GSA to search dozens of boxes in their possession,” Kelly observed.
“I was doing full-on political propaganda,” she said, adding “The funny thing is they’re like, do not disclose this is an ad because technically it’s not a product so you don’t have to disclose it’s an ad. Because I think they just wanted, like, some edgy girl of color to just tell people — like when they nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson, they’re, like, ‘Can you say “as a person of color,” you know, that you feel “reflected”?’”
It is painfully apparent to anyone of sound mind and judgment that there’s something gravely wrong with America’s current military capacity and our ability to project power in the world. The WWII-era fighting force composed of fourteen million GIs with a muscular industrial base backing them up is almost unimaginable today. In the last three years, five different US embassies have been hastily evacuated: Sudan, Afghanistan, Belarus, Ukraine, and Niger. Americans are held hostage in Gaza; commercial shipping traffic is blockaded and our ground and naval forces are shot at daily with impunity. How did America go from winning the Cold War and becoming the sole global superpower in the 90s to the state of disarray that we find ourselves in now? One reason is financial. All warfare has an underlying economic basis and a nation’s military power reflects its economic structure. Today in America the “exorbitant privilege” of the US dollar and the unlimited printing press of fiat currency it enables means current US defense spending is essentially covered by debt: indeed at least 30% of the current national debt consists of military overspend from the so-called Global War on Terror. This reality has created an absence of strategic discipline, and a military policy that prioritizes a tiny guild of contractors feeding an obese top-heavy structure rather than winning wars.
Cannon just in the past week authorized the unsealing of a redacted defense motion and sealed exhibits that demonstrates the close collusion between the Biden White House, the National Archives, and the DOJ to manufacture the documents case. Cannon also consented to the public posting of grand jury and FBI interviews; an almost completely unredacted version of the FBI affidavit to get a search warrant to raid Mar-a-Lago in August 2022; evidence of prosecutorial abuse related to threats made against Nauta’s lawyer in an attempt to get him to flip his client against Trump; and Nauta’s motion to dismiss based on selective and vindictive prosecution.
I am not sympathetic towards the shareholders. This was a zombie bank, running on fumes. Just look at what its auditor Crowe said about the bank when it was fired on February 21, 2024:
Years ago, the New Republic published a series of false stories that were so egregiously fake that a movie was made about it called Shattered Glass. Now it’s happening again.
UK greenhouse gas emissions are at their lowest level since 1879.
After corporate media ran the Russia collusion lie, the Kavanaugh rape smear, COVID disinformation, transgender propaganda, and various other dangerous and damaging info ops, 83% (!) of Americans report they do not trust corporate media to report facts.
I can’t wait to have an AI that rips apart the logic of charlatans like Jung, Freud, Lacan, Foucault etc. etc. Then looks for circular references in academic papers and in combination, dismantles half of the University system as a fraudulent posturing.
Tool Description and Principle of Operation
The Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) History Feature is an FDA-cleared (K213971), commercially available over-the-counter (“OTC”) software-only mobile medical application intended for users 22 years of age and over who have a diagnosis of AFib. The feature opportunistically analyzes pulse rate data collected by the general-purpose Apple Watch photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor to identify episodes of irregular heart rhythms consistent
with AFib and provides the user with a retrospective estimate of AFib burden (a measure of the amount of time spent in AFib during past Apple Watch wear)

Let us especially consider this vexing question in light of Ellmers and Richards’ conception of the Uniparty: “Leadership shifting from one party to another has become a change of aesthetics and emphasis, not of fundamental aims.”
So now we know why there were so many attacks on James O’Keefe recently – it was all about this story and stopping him from exposing the CIA. I guess they will have to keep attacking him because nothing has worked & he is a real threat to them. Watching this you realize how much Pompeo has to answer for – and he’s not the only one. PS: I know for a fact that James is not not suicidal – and neither am I.
The White House has used CIA Director William Burns as one of its main instruments of diplomatic deterrence. He’s traveled to Egypt, Qatar, and elsewhere for endless hostage negotiations with the Palestinian terrorist organization. That none of these negotiations has gone anywhere is the point. Burns’ jawboning is designed to stall Israel’s war while legitimizing the act of hostage-taking, even as it’s become increasingly clear that many of the hostages whose release he is supposedly negotiating for are dead
Highlight ?for our motion to intervene and unseal @TheJusticeDept arguments for hiding its broad subpoenas for phone and email logs of attorneys advising congressional oversight committees.
The Uniparty is the party of war, bigger government, and less freedom.
Today, the volatility of oil prices is taken for granted. But this was not always the case. From the early 1930s to the 1970s, the price of oil in the United States was managed through a combination of voluntary action by private actors and regulatory oversight from state agencies. Crisis in the early 1970s motivated the federal government to institute formal controls over the price of crude oil. While these controls were inexpertly administered and pursued contradictory goals, they succeeded in absorbing the impact of the shock in global oil prices and ensuring access to energy on affordable terms to most Americans. Where the policy did not succeed, however, was in increasing domestic production and making a meaningful impact on oil imports. A second oil shock in 1979 convinced policymakers to do away with controls and helped spawn a militarized commitment to “securing” the oil of the Middle East, the blowback of which we continue to confront today. US power and a free market, many leaders argued, would produce abundant and affordable energy.
You can see the moment where his tiny brain seizes up realizing he mixed up “buy” and “sell” (bonds).
When Francesco Ficola was a young boy, his hometown, Palermo, was a city under siege. Once a Mediterranean trading hub and a jewel of the Belle Époque, it had been turned into a battleground for the Sicilian mafia in its internal rivalries and its war against the Italian state. Ficola, now 37, recalls police checkpoints across the city and the historic centre virtually abandoned, its grand palazzos and Baroque churches falling into disrepair. Palermo’s population, which peaked at just over 700,000 in 1981, had begun a long, steady decline, as people left in search of economic opportunities and greater security elsewhere.
Western lenders have shunned EACOP amid environmental and human-rights concerns, however, leaving Beijing, long a reliable lender to the developing world and already involved in Uganda’s oil fields, as EACOP’s obvious savior.
Complicating matters further, Russian military advisors have reportedly begun to replace American presence at the airbase. In a bewildering response, the Biden administration has negotiated an arrangement to hand over the base to Russian control in exchange for the evacuation of U.S. personnel. This decision not only signifies a substantial loss of U.S. military assets—potentially valued up to $500 million—but also a significant geopolitical and strategic concession to Russian interests in Africa.

If you lived in Leipzig between 1930 and 1945 you would have seen Karli change its name twice from neutral, to nazi and then communist. It’s said that the locals jokingly referred to it as ‘Adolf-Südknecht-Straße’, merging all three names. It was supposed to change again after the fall of the Berlin Wall to ‘Straße des 17. Juni’, referring to the mass uprising of East Germans on 17 June 1953, but by then Leipzigers were fed up with all the name changes and opposed the suggestion.
After the memo was discovered, McMaster’s deputy, Ricky Waddell, summoned Higgins, who was told he could resign — or be fired, and risk losing his security clearance, according to two sources. Higgins, who agreed to resign, was escorted out of the building. He later learned from his colleagues still at the NSC that his association to this now-infamous memo was the reason he was removed.
