Thank you Nigel. James is an engineering prof and a friend of mine. I don’t know the details of these two matters and he may be limited by confidentiality, but I know in general terms recently he’s finding a lot of misuse or over reliance on AI. Seems to be affecting a lot of professions.

Compliment in stone.

Criticize in sand.

Unless the person is maliciously bad to you or people you care about.

Then you criticize with an angle grinder.

Did you know ahead of time the lawyer would be representing the student, or did they try to blindside you? If you knew ahead of time, did the lawyer advance their argument and evidence first, or were there surprises there too.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

New GDP data falls far short, shows 2025 ended with weak economic growth In the first year of Trump’s second term, economic growth fell to a nine-year low, and domestic job growth fell to a 16-year low. It’s worth asking why.

Except they’re not pawns. This media framing of β€œthese boys are being tricked and used as props” is so lame. They’re grown men with agency who know perfectly well what they’re doing. Matthew Tkachuk is on the President’s sports council, which is mandated to keep trans women out of women’s sports.

"Ice-T ignited widespread online discussion after posting a strongly worded political remark that quickly gained traction across social media"

But it's okay to call Trump a messiah and compare him to Jesus? I'm amazed Christians aren't kicking MAGA/Christian Nationalist butts.
