BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West

Chart showing solar panel exports from China (the main solar panel maker by a long shot) growing steadily & mightily from 2018 through 2026, then spiking by almost 2x in March 2026.

LLMs have reached the point that they can be useful as proof assistants. Increasingly, they appear capable even of generating entire proofs that are correct. But in my experience, their best proofs are just correct. They aren't explanatory the way a good human proof is. Here's Cris Moore:

All this puzzling is very similar to what we do in mathematics. I think of a puzzle—especially a puzzle with a beautiful logical path—as an elegant proof of its own solution. It may be presented in cryptic form, or as a series of subtle signposts, but it provides just enough information to let the solver find, or build, its solution.
To continue the analogy, the best proofs are not just a series of logical steps arriving at a conclusion. Such a proof might establish that the conclusion is true, but that is all it does. It provides mere knowledge, and knowledge only of that one thing.
In contrast, a good proof gives us a sense of why something is true. It helps us learn, not just about that one problem, but about the larger web of mathematics: what analogies it has with other problems and other truths, how far these analogies can be stretched and where they break down. It teaches us something new about how truth works. It gives us insight and understanding.

"Doubly disturbing" Fmr. federal prosecutor Ankush Khardori explains the concerning timing of Todd Blanche's confirmation hearing along with Trump's speech alleging election vulnerabilities. He adds that Republicans who vote for Blanche can’t “pretend that anything that is coming was not expected.”

We are moving in the WRONG direction when it comes to kids' healthcare coverage. MediKids would remove the cost burden on states and ensure that every kid has healthcare, no exceptions.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

Yes, they used tech to figure out a niche thing and make money off of it but that never meant they knew anything about the whole system they just exploited a vulnerability. People who are good at locating rare minerals get backing to build mines they aren't hailed as generational super geniuses...

The same people who lied about the Reflecting Pool also lied about . . . The 2020 election How things are going in Iran COVID Trump’s intelligence Caring about you and your family Not cutting Medicare Who would pay for the wall & ballroom Donald being successful in business & school

Kim Davis told the court under oath she'd made no transfers over two thousand dollars in five years. Deeds show she moved three parcels worth over four hundred thousand to family members eight months before that. She wants the martyrdom without the debt.
