Thinking more about this article, it occurs to me that the reason RFK Jr. wants to use health data from Medicare and Medicaid and not data from states to conduct his “research” is that states will be able to ascertain when he manipulates their data until he gets the outcome he wants.

Tens of millions of American motorists believe there's nothing wrong with texting at a stoplight. Or driving 73 in a 60mph zone. Or changing lanes without signaling. Or rolling right on red without coming to a full stop. But somebody has to do something about cyclists who don't follow the rules.

It looks like a parking lot. Before they're gone they may turn it into an employee parking lot, as they've done to the pedestrian walkway on Pennsylvania Ave. between the White House and Lafayette Park.

Claude appears to be engaging in academic dishonesty, which could be fireable for a human researcher. But one of AI’s major functions is ethics displacement, a shield that allows cheaters and other bad players to escape accountability.

The question is why did it take over a decade for this lone Republican to start figuring this out? Are Republicans in Congress that gullible and blind? If so we can be sure the Rs sold America out long long ago.

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

EEEE I HAVE A BIKE -- I loved riding yesterday so much I found a used bike and snatched it up. Other than wishing it was blue or yellow, it is PERFECT (zero interest in speed, 100% interest in comfort) and I've already had a wonderful time riding it.
