Great article about AI, innovation and comparing it with other innovation cycles.
"The way to invest in AI is to think through the implications of knowledge workers becoming more efficient, to imagine what markets this efficiency unlocks, and to invest in those. For decades, the way to make money was to bet on what the new thing was. Now, you have to bet on the opportunities it opens up."

While they aren't fully clear on the scope, it seems they are talking mainly about generative AI.

As they state, its too late to invest in the base models (though those still burn money and need investments badly. So who is going to keep the lights on?)

To compare that with the invention of the microchip, railroads and containerization is a big reach.
It can just as easily be compared to VR, NFTs, segway/transportation 'revolutions', the metaverse or 3D televisions.

Mashable: LinkedIn is expanding its AI training to member profiles in the EU. “In late 2024, LinkedIn started using member profiles to train its AI. At the time, this was restricted to only certain areas, such as the U.S. and other countries. One year later, LinkedIn is now adding all of the regions that weren’t previously included. Once the change goes into effect, everyone’s profile on […]

L'immagine mostra un ritratto di un giovane uomo con capelli scuri e un'espressione seria. Sopra il suo viso, in caratteri bianchi su sfondo nero, si legge "20 ANNI SENZA FEDERICO ALDROVANDI". Sotto il ritratto, in caratteri bianchi su sfondo nero, sono riportate le date "25/9/2005 - 25/9/2025". In basso, sono presenti due icone: una a forma di telefono e un'altra che sembra un simbolo di social media. L'immagine commemora Federico Aldrovandi, che è scomparso il 25 settembre 2005 e il suo anniversario di scomparsa è celebrato il 25 settembre 2025.

Don't let the med lapse - else you might in 24 hours . . .

• lie in bed having a lengthy phone conversation in your head with David Hasslehoff's father, you mirroring his Texas accent, while you explain you're just trying to do a #journalist a favor and want to make sure they did his son right, ending with Hass' Dad just putting the phone down, but you can hear him breathing . . .

I used 19 and 58. Just letting everyone know so they don't try to reuse them later and wonder why they didn't work.

Terrorism case against Kneecap rapper Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh thrown out


Ó hAnnaidh had been charged with a terrorism offence for allegedly displaying a Hezbollah flag at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London, last November.

But sitting at Woolwich crown court, the chief magistrate, Paul Goldspring, agreed with Ó hAnnaidh’s defence team, who had argued there was a legal mistake in the way the charge was brought against him.

Ó hAnnaidh told supporters outside the court on Friday: “We will not be silent.” His defence team, led by Brenda Campbell KC, argued that the attorney general, Richard Hermer, had not given permission for the case to be brought against the defendant when police informed him he was to face a terrorism charge on 21 May.

Back in Licata
(english below)

Die Trotamar III ist zurück in Licata!
Die letzte Woche war nervenzehrend lang für unsere Crew. Einige Male waren wir auf der Suche nach Seenotfällen, deren GPS-Koordinaten wir über Funk abhören konnten. Doch selbst mithilfe von Koordinaten ist es mitunter sehr schwierig, ein Boot auf dem offenen Wasser auch wirklich zu finden.

Leider haben wir mitbekommen, dass einige der von uns gesuchten Boote von der sogenannten libyschen Küstenwache gefunden wurden. Andere wiederum wurden glücklicherweise von Solidaire gerettet.

-------

The last week was long and a bit nerve-wracking for our crew. Several times we were searching for distress cases whose GPS coordinates we were able to pick up via radio.

But even with the coordinates of a boat's last known position, it can be very difficult to actually find a boat on the open water.

Unfortunately, we have learned that some of the boats were pullbacked by the so-called Libyan coast guard. Others were fortunately rescued by Solidaire.




So I haven't been donating to the Palestinian groups for two reasons:
1) I am in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy and don't have space in my budget for charity at this point.
2) I live in the US and under our current Fascist regime, I could easily be accused of Material Support for Terrorism given this administrations broad crack down on any and all Palestinian aid groups and NGOs in general. To be clear, this was true during the Biden administration as well.
I am happy to "#Boost" posts, and @aral is doing an Amazing job with #GazaVerified.

Ho scelto il libro a caso perché mi piace Bisio. Letto benissimo, è un libro bellissimo. Scritto molto bene, coinvolgente. Per tutto il tempo ho avuto paura per il finale pur sperando nel lieto fine. Consigliatissimo. Mi unisco a chi ha definito questo libro poetico.

How Trump's new U.S. attorney got Comey indicted — by herself


Trump loyalist Lindsey Halligan found herself going it alone before a grand jury that formally charged the former FBI director on Thursday night.

Lindsey Halligan, the new federal prosecutor hand-picked by Donald Trump to target his longtime foe James Comey, was all alone when she convinced a grand jury on Thursday to indict the former FBI director, according to two people with knowledge of the secret proceedings.

Halligan took over as U.S. attorney for the prestigious Eastern District of Virginia on Monday. Three days later, she found herself the lone representative of a 300-member office spearheading a case that her predecessor — and many of the assistant U.S. attorneys who report to her — considered too weak to bring charges.

Her singular role was extraordinary.

Rarely does a U.S. attorney in a large office lay out the potential charges to a grand jury, much less one three days on the job with no prosecutorial experience and no background working the case.
