Poindexter: "In fact, I think Max Miller is one of the only people in the district who has $800 to spend on reckless war. The rest of us are getting screwed. We feel it every time we go the pump, and as a former truck driver, I know it's not just at the pump."

Poindexter: "And now see that politicians are trying to put a bandaid on the problem by bailing out Vladimir Putin even as he continues his terrible way against Ukraine. That's not the answer. We should not be bailing out Vladimir Putin. We should be ending the war."

Most top economics essentially missed the rise in wealth inequality that started in the 80s and the obsolescence of the income tax until the 2010s. Instead they were peddling stuff like this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall%E2...

Another way of saying this is there was no productivity gains, introducing LLMs just changed the "recipe" for producing code of the expected quality.

African populations hold 40% of human genetic diversity but are only 2% of genomic studies. Advocate for national genome projects to improve healthcare equity! PMID:42342701, Nat Commun 2026, @NatureComms doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-74952-7 #Medsky #Pharmsky #RNA #ASHG #ESHG 🧪

Advancing global genomic equity: making a case for national genome projects in Africa | Nature Communications
Genomic data hold transformative potential for healthcare. Despite their unparalleled genetic diversity, African populations remain underrepresented in global genomics research, contributing to poorer health outcomes both within Africa and globally. Political, financial, and social challenges hinder progress, and therefore advocacy for public understanding of genomics, addressing social stigma, and aligning initiatives with national policies are critical steps forward. Africa hosts a large pool of highly skilled scientists and laboratories with DNA analysis capacity to harness for human genetics research and service provision, presenting opportunities for growth and innovation. This article highlights progress in African genomics, emphasizes the importance of equity, and proposes actionable steps for prioritizing, funding, and implementing national genome projects. It is a call to action. Genomic data could transform healthcare, but African populations are underrepresented, currently l

Lot of issues here but one part that sticks out in light of the almost-attacked-a-Chinese-ship story today: people with very important jobs where lives are at stake have bought the hype and outsourced their whole brains to AI. We're going to see more and more of this. www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/p...
In the past year, the Defense Department has rapidly made Maven a cornerstone of the US military apparatus. Several former senior US military officials now work for Palantir, including some with high-level security clearances in Centcom’s Tampa headquarters. Their role is to keep the software functioning inside secure military environments. Some Centcom personnel expected Maven to flag stale information or inconsistencies in the underlying intelligence assembled for potential targets, the officials said. It’s not clear why they had such expectations.
The intelligence report, circulated across the US military this spring in the midst of the war with Iran, immediately set off alarm bells: A Chinese ship in the Middle East was transporting components of a nuclear weapons program.

The US military swung into action with plans to intercept the vessel, according to four sources familiar with the episode. According to two of the sources, armed members of the US military were preparing to board the ship. Military planes were in the air, one of those sources and another source familiar with the incident said.

It was only just before the planned operation that officials dug deeper into the report put together by a special operations command analyst and found it had been generated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) — and that a chatbot the analyst had used inaccurately identified the material the ship was carrying. CNN was not able to learn what the misidentified cargo was.

One extremely obvious policy change would be having investors declare the "collateral price" of their holdings at the beginning of the calendar year and tax any "capital gains" on the collateral price as realized. Remember they chose to raise their own collateral prices voluntarily.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 93% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 34% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
