And amazingly well designed to handle errors (like when Armstrong forgot to turn of the docking radar before the moon landing). The computer didn’t have enough memory to handle all the data, but prioritized the landing while throwing the error codes. We owe her so much. May her memory be a blessing.

Trump is declining international election monitors in the United States for first time in over two decades, aligning the country with Russia. Trump will instead deploy his own election monitors to polling sites across the country. www.ms.now/news/trump-m...

Bribing people with their own money while adding another trillion dollars to the deficit. So much grifting! “That pledge — which would require approval from Congress — would likely cost more than $1 trillion, adding to the deficit and worsening inflation.”

‘A beacon of peace’: London’s oldest mosque celebrates centenary
Fazl Mosque was used as an air raid shelter in the war – but that is not its only link to a pivotal moment in world history Exactly 100 years ago the Guardian wrote about the opening of London’s first mosque, an impressive white building surrounded by immaculate flower gardens in the heart of south London suburbia. A report described the mosque, in its incongruous surroundings, as “a thing of beauty”. The journalists who attended the opening ceremony witnessed the mosque’s large black doors being opened with a silver key. About 600 eminent guests attended the grand opening. Continue reading...

The Kennedy Center was solvent when Trump took over. Then its finances collapsed.
The Post examined 15 years of the institution’s financial records to see why it went south after the president took over.

Here, the Trump Admin shows why it can't run AI policy. They use AI to push partisan propaganda on a day-to-day basis and can't handle its chatbot telling the truth about the election. How much will AI policy be tilted in their partisan & personal favor if this continues? x.com/ddale8/statu...

The Trump administration appears to have changed its AI chatbot so that it no longer debunks Trump lies. Yesterday: It said Biden won the 2020 election and there's no indication of widespread fraud. Today: Says it can't answer such questions.
