At 19, Memphis barber Darnell Wells set up a chair on the street and started cutting hair for free. His friend Zac Sherrod bought burgers so nobody left hungry. They expected two people. Darnell cut nine heads with five still waiting, and they handed out 30 burgers. 💈 #CommunityFirst

A young barber kneels in a parking lot, using clippers to trim the white hair of an older man seated in a red folding chair with a black cape over his shoulders. An inset photo in the top corner shows the same barber cutting another man's hair outdoors. Bold white headline below reads: "Meet the Black teen who gives free street haircuts to the homeless."

96 nights of marching. A fence blocking a beach at Zvërnec became Albania's biggest peaceful uprising since communism fell, against a Kushner-linked resort on protected coast. "Albania is not for sale." Rama says he won't step back. Neither will they. #Albania

Two-panel graphic. Left: a nighttime aerial photo of a vast crowd filling a tree-lined boulevard, packed shoulder to shoulder with red Albanian flags and phone lights. Right: Jared Kushner in a dark suit standing beside a US flag, one hand raised. Overlaid text reads: "Albania teaching the world about resistance. 96 days of protest against the Epstein class. Stand with you Albanians."

In my testing, multi-step agentic workflows can hold up across substantially more than two or three steps when each stage has explicit state, constrained tool contracts, validation gates, retry logic, and a way to verify the previous step before proceeding.

Where things start to fall apart is when the system treats every intermediate output as trusted truth. A small error at step two becomes context for step three, then gets reinforced at step four, and eventually you have compounded drift rather than a single bad result.

So my answer would be: yes, agentic orchestration can absolutely survive a full multi-step task, but reliability comes from the surrounding architecture. Without verification and state control, drift is still very real.

Also, for the larger orchestration work I’m doing now, I’ve moved the model to Extra High reasoning. I’d rather spend more compute maintaining architectural consistency and validating each intermediate decision than let a weak assumption compound across a multi-stage build.

The $45B figure is the special treasury bond portion. The full package is 360 billion yuan (~$54B) across three state lenders and five insurers. It's the first time Beijing has extended special-bond recapitalization to insurers. Citi called it smaller than markets expected.

📌It's comical that with billionaires eating us alive, and paying off Republicans to batter our unions, keep wages as low as possible, and shitcan our benefits, we are "celebrating" Labor Day. We should be grieving for it.

Hate crimes against marginalized groups are disgusting and flat out wrong. I’ve had my issues with Rahm Emanuel, but I agree with his main point here. Some context on the stats: 🧵

Here’s @NesrineMalik asking the right question — “🇮🇱 ministers keep telling everyone their brutal plans for Palestinians… why are these people not being taken at their word? Why is there no sense of urgency and outrage?” They are saying it out loud.

Israeli ministers keep telling everyone their brutal plans – so why doesn’t the world take them seriously? | Nesrine Malik

Schemes to forcibly remove Palestinians from Gaza are not being promoted by fringe voices. But the international community continues to avert its eyes, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik
