“It may be risky, but it’s also pretty pathetic that we essentially have world leaders treating the president of the United States like a toddler who needs to be placated with a shiny toy,” said Polgreen. “The latest shiny toy, of course, being a $400 million plane that the government of Qatar is apparently donating — whatever that means — to the United States.”
'Frankly pathetic': World leaders treat Trump like a 'toddler' who needs a 'shiny toy'
International columnists Lydia Polgreen and Nick Kristof discussed with the New York Times how the world is coming to terms with an international superpower run by what they perceive to be a "toddler.Adam Lynch (Alternet.org)

If you didn't want courts to repeatedly find that you did war crimes, I would simply stop asking courts to look into whether or not you did war crimes.

Although you can never escape the event horizon of a black hole, the environment around a black hole can generate ultra-fast winds that carry gas and dust at a significant fraction of the speed of light. It was always assumed these winds would be smooth and continuous, but new research shows that some winds can resemble rapid-fire streams of gas bullets. Astronomers saw winds going 20-30% the speed of light, made up of 5 distinct gas components, ejected like a geyser.

his integrity makes his musical genius all the sweeter.

The newly appointed head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency acknowledged in private meetings that with two weeks to go until hurricane season, the agency doesn’t yet have a fully formed disaster-response plan.
#David #Richardson, who previously served as a senior official at the Department of Homeland Security
-- and doesn’t have a background in emergency management,
told staff he would share a hurricane plan with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after he completes it late next week.
He said Thursday he’s 80% to 85% done with the plan.

The Nakba didn’t end in 1948—it has been ongoing. From the expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians to the genocide of Gaza, from bulldozed villages to bombed hospitals, from refugee tents in Ramla to refugee tents in Rafah. What we’re witnessing today is the same campaign of erasure, carried out by Israel since the beginning.

What happened to the billions invested into Gaza? Billions and Billions? in Oct 2023 the people of Israel broke. They really meant No More. Never again would Jews accept being attacked as something they must endure on a daily basis. Why hasn’t Egypt, UAE, Qatar, Jordan and Saudi Arabia accepted refugees? Why aren’t they rattling the sabers at Israel? They are strangely quiet are they not?
Israel has much to answer for but peace was always on the table.
💡 Why we need lisp machines
｢ They were programmed in lisp the whole way down and could be run code interpreted for convenience or compiled to microcode for efficiency. You could open up system functions in the editor, modify and compile them while the machine was running. Everything worked in a single address space, programs could talk to each other in ways operating systems of today couldn’t dream of ｣
I'll have a crack at trying to learn some basic Lisp programming, via uLisp and a microcontroller. To my limited knowledge, this feels *like* having a Lisp machine, also pretty cool, so it's a hook to at least take a first step.

Astronomers have found hundreds of protoplanetary disks around young stars, the birthplaces of new planets. It was assumed that the center of the galaxy was too hostile an environment for planets to form, but now astronomers have found evidence of protoplanetary disks there too. The observations were made with ALMA, peering into the dynamic and turbulent environment of the Central Molecular Zone near the center of the Milky Way. Planets find a way.
