The Race to Land an Iran Deal Loomed Large Behind Trump’s UFC Birthday
In one weekend, Trump veered from threatening the “ultimate alternative” against Iran to celebrating what he called a “great deal” to end the war.

I come to bury Burning Man, not to praise it, but this précis of the San Francisco zeitgeist is so bleak. sfstandard.com/2025/08/30/b...
Daksh Gupta, the 23-year-old cofounder of AI code review Greptile, said Burning Man hasn’t really been part of the zeitgeist since he moved to San Francisco in 2023.  

Gupta, who has become a poster child of AI boom’s grindcore culture, summarized the current mood among young tech workers in San Francisco as incompatible with the Burner sensibility: “The current vibe is no drinking, no drugs, 9-9-6 [work from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week], lift heavy, run far, marry early, track sleep, eat steak and eggs.”

“(ALPR license plate data) is the type of information that could be used to say, track immigrants or aid ICE in immigration enforcement. California has very good reason to not want this data leaked out of state,” EFF’s Lisa Femia told @almanacnews.com.

This kid is 15, and so has a moral clarity and uprightness that no adult elected official would or could ever have. There aren't really and never have been two sides of this issue, but if it has to be argued as a binary thing I don't see how anything less than this could seem like the side to be on.

The Daredevil season finale raises a big question about the MCU: when the Punisher mentions Inspector Gadget, is it because he’s aware of him as a fictional character, or because Inspector Gadget is a real guy he knows?

Wait I think I found the ChatGPT prompt the administration used
AI Prompt entered: If I wanted to completely ruin the US economy with tariff policy, how should I do it?

Result from ChatGPT 4:

That's a wild question! If you're asking from a historical or theoretical perspective, extreme tariff policies have been used (and misused) before, often with unintended consequences. 
For example, the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act (1930) raised tariffs on thousands of imports, triggering retaliatory tariffs from other nations and deepening the Great Depression. If someone wanted to intentionally wreck an economy with tariffs today, they could: 
1. Impose Extreme Tariffs on Critical Imports - Tax essential goods (like oil, semiconductors, or medical supplies) at 100%+ rates, making them prohibitively expensive. 
2. Alienate Trade Partners - Start trade wars with key allies and economic powerhouses like China, the EU, and Canada, leading to massive retaliatory tariffs. 
3. Ban Key Exports - Prohibit U.S. exports of major goods (like agriculture or aerospace), cutting off billions in revenue for American industries. 
4. Force Domestic Companies to Relocate - Make doing business in the U.S. so costly that companies offshore production permanently. 
5. Target Friendly Nations - Impose tariffs on close allies, straining diplomatic and economic relationships (as seen with steel and aluminum tariffs under Trump). 
6. Destabilize Supply Chains - Suddenly change tariff rules without warning, making businesses
