Within our ranks lies a cancer that has metastasized, born of fear and ignorance, nourished by cowardice and hatred.

Unable to compete on values or integrity, they resort instead to deceit.

I loved Opus 4.1 - it was near perfect for everyday use of a Senior Dev - I wish you could offer that at a better rate.

I would even consider freezing the Claude Code version - it was that good and efficient.

Hey @anthropic.com - I like Claude Code, but don't think for a second these latest that are eating up the Context Window at a rate of 20-25% faster and providing little to no value over Opus 4.1 are lost on us that use these tools every day.

It reeks of token padding.

Rebuilding the World We Broke How Gaza, Ukraine, and the Rise of BRICS Could Turn War into a Competition to Build

The US and BRICS could both lead the next era of peace, not by fighting, but by out-building each other.

This isn’t anti-West or pro-East. It’s pro-human. And it’s long overdue.

More studies are showing that online retail is being measurably improved by Generative AI with sales increasing 16.3%.

This is actual ROI which deflates some of the talk of a bubble.

It is directly impacting conversion rates, reduced market friction and enhanced customer experience.

The 40% Wealth Trap: Why Your 401(k) Could Quietly Lose Half Its Value by 2030 Light stagflation isn't the worst case; it's the optimistic one. And we're already halfway there.

The math says most savers will lose 35–40% of their real purchasing power by 2030, not from a crash, but from quiet erosion: inflation + falling valuations.

No headlines. No panic.

Just a decade where nothing keeps up. The next bear market won’t destroy wealth; it’ll dissolve it slowly.

A nation’s true identity isn’t defined by the weapons it wields or the battles it fights, but by the vision that guides those actions, its moral compass, its goals, and its contribution to humanity.

Arrows (tools, weapons, or policies) are just instruments; the aim represents intent and direction.

And let’s not forget, when brokers like Robinhood restricted trading during volatility, it exposed a regulatory gap.

Market access isn’t optional; it’s protected under fair-market rules. The next crisis won’t come from traders, it’ll come when intermediaries override the laws that safeguard them.

Stocks can’t crash like crypto.

Circuit breakers, margin rules, and market makers prevent total wipeouts.

But leverage ETFs, futures, and 24/7 trading edges can still flash-crash fast when liquidity thins.

The system resets; crypto doesn’t. Risk now lives in the gray zones.

Given the apparent political interference, disregard for internal oversight, and potential abuse of prosecutorial discretion, this case will be made an example of.

bypassing Justice Department leadership, & doing so amid direct political pressure from the president represent a serious breach of prosecutorial ethics & chain-of-command protocols.

These actions would certainly trigger investigations by the DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility

AI is meant to be the great equalizer, expanding opportunity and efficiency.

For now, it’s more often a story of anticipation than transformation, progress on paper, waiting to prove itself in practice.

The Hidden Inflation of AI How companies are disguising capital strain as innovation while the middle class foots the bill

We’re not just seeing prices rise, we’re seeing optimism repackaged as innovation.

Many companies under pressure are using AI to defend margins rather than reduce costs, passing heavy infrastructure spending on to consumers in subtle ways.

Pam Bondi, DOJ officials caught off guard by Tish James indictment: Sources Sources said that Tish James' indictment for alleged fraud came as a surprise.

Even Bondi knows it, someone is losing their license under 5 U.S.C. § 301 for violating internal DOJ authority, 18 U.S.C. § 1505 for obstructing lawful proceedings, or possibly § 242 for depriving rights under color of law.

It’s about moral courage, the kind that unites people even when it’s dangerous to do so.

Machado embodies that spirit. Trump never has.

That’s the divide, the chasm, between those who earn peace and those who surrender their claim to it.

Trump has always led through division, not reconciliation, through spectacle, not substance.

The Nobel Peace Prize isn’t about power or politics.

Machado’s Nobel Peace Prize isn’t just an accolade, it’s a quiet indictment of every leader who mistakes fear for strength.

Where she stood unarmed in the face of tyranny, Trump stood armed with grievance against democracy itself.

It seems to me no coincidence that the decline of social media (and pray it is so) started just as content generated by artificial intelligence really got going.
