Nvidia topped a $4 trillion market cap for the first time as investors bet on the tech giant that's building the hardware for the generative AI boom.

This is horrific - absolutely vile & dehumanising!
But it's also completely historically ignorant.
How do unionists think their ancestors got to Ireland? And depicting the people wearing orange ... interesting choice.

A shocking conflict of interest by a Trump Cabinet member: "As commerce secretary, Howard Lutnick oversees the U.S. government’s vast efforts to monitor and predict the weather. (He) also ran a financial firm, which he recently left in the control of his adult sons, that stands to benefit if Pres. Donald Trump’s administration follows through on a decade-long Republican effort to privatize government weather forecasting":

Habe das Bild aus dem Bundestag mal schnell gaanz dezent mit etwas körnigem Chiaroscuro in Caravaggio-style nachgearbeitet, um den gefalteten Händen des gebeugten Spahn das angemessen würdige Ambiente zu verleihen.

The image shows a geometric diagram on a light green grid paper background. There are three points labeled A, B, and C, each marked with a black dot. Point A is located to the left, point B is in the center, and point C is to the right. Two black lines connect points A and B, and B and C, forming a triangle. A blue line intersects the black lines at point B, creating a right angle with the line connecting A and B. Curved arcs are drawn from points A and B, intersecting near point B and extending towards point C. The arcs suggest the construction of a perpendicular bisector or similar geometric construction. The grid lines are faint and evenly spaced, providing a reference for measurements.

My previous post is via @AngelwithMomo, someone who has excellent judgment about what ideas deserve a boost. She is both a good person and a good person to follow here. She sometimes writes in English and other times writes in German. She identified that news that, and this is my opinion: Ted Cruz and other Republican politicians acted unethically in a way that increased the death toll from the #TexasFlood.

"Across the UK and around the world, the tide has turned. From musicians chanting at Glastonbury, to students occupying campuses, to doctors’ unions passing motions of solidarity, public opinion has shifted. People are demanding an end to active participation in genocide and ethnic cleansing.

The votes two weeks ago at the #BritishMedicalAssociation’s annual representative meeting - the largest gathering of doctors in the #UK - are a powerful symbol of that shift.

if you dig smooth, jazzy guitar work, you should absolutely have the album “Polarity” by Jimmy Bruno and Joe Beck in your collection.

a dozen guitar duets, with Jimmy handling the lead lines while Joe holds down the harmonic fabric and bass notes on his alto guitar that he came up with.

to hear that alto guitar, check out Joe’s only solo track on the album, his cover of “Tenderly” - it’s absolutely entrancing and just such a beautiful approach to six strings.
