A Haitian man legally immigrated to Ohio, then was given an ankle monitor bc Trump withdrew his status. He threw himself in front of truck. The trucker, who voted for Trump, is haunted. “Pierre was doing what he was supposed to do. We did not do right by him.” www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I've never encountered the phrase "photon count analysis" being used in place of "seeing".
Elon Musk

Visual spectrum cameras can see very well in the dark when Al is doing the photon count analysis

"Milo got arrested!" "That's good!" "By an unaccountable secret police force" "That's bad" "He supported them, though, so there's delicious irony at play." "That's good!" "But they came for him because fascist power has reached a point where petty infighting can lead to arrests" "That's bad"

"Temperature swings between negative 300 degrees and above boiling can hit a single piece of equipment simultaneously." Negative 300 degrees is colder than absolute zero. Unless they mean Fahrenheit; but we shouldn't assume that, because the whole article is devoid of units.

It would be interesting to know how many of the ships "transiting" the Strait of Hormuz are outbound vs inbound. I can readily believe ships that have been bottled up for months are eager to escape if they can find a window. Not sure how many are willingly heading back in.

My grandfather got run over by a trolley in 50s era San Francisco. Old cablecars were quite the deathtrap. They could only slow down on hills by a lever gripping the (already moving) cable, and the cable or lever would snap and send a runaway train down Filbert Street.

I see these AI fuckup deleted-everything posts on Twitter almost everyday but for some reason they never get less funny.

This is the retail use case! I will happily pay $20 nonrecurring for premium model access if it means I get an Android alarm clock app that works EXACTLY how I want! I don't have to wait on the market realizing that what I want is a hyperspecific alarm clock feature that isn't profitable!

I like the term because it is extremely effective for demonstrating to MAGA voters why Trump sucks, even if it's obviously flawed policy-wise

If the uptick is from @flightradar24.com, then we're not seeing an uptick in ISR flights. What we're seeing is an uptick in ISR flights under orders to intentionally leave on devices like transponders and ADS-B. The total amount of flights including those we can't see is probably unchanged.

At best they knew about the threat and Trump insisted on going anyway. Much beyond that is rather unfathomable.

Jet fuel shortages are going to be a real threat, and unlike driving the fuel prices outside America matters. Even if you fly to Europe on American/United/Delta, you're still paying for a fillup in Europe.
