🚨 UPDATE: Kaylub Giamanco, the dad who killed the Bend, Oregon school shooter, gives credit to the unarmed TEACHER who fought the gunman with her BARE HANDS 👏🏻
"I want to recognize HER. SHE gave me the opportunity to make my shot without losing my life...That's a real TRUE hero, to not have a weapon and to put yourself in between your babies and a firearm."
This man is pure selfless. Give him a medal of freedom!
Police say she threw her PHONE at the 16-year-old gunman, then tackled him and fought for the gun. That gave Giamanco the shot he needed
When the gunman went for his weapon again, Giamanco fired two more times "to make sure that he couldn't move"
He saved countless lives, and he's still apologizing: "I want to apologize for not saving their babies." 💔
Man, this guy is a hero with a heart of gold. 🇺🇸

Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

Hate to say it but they're both right

France has spent more than it has taken in for the past 52 years.
The problem is not lack of spending.

Awful story out of Six Flags. Amusement parks are weird because we're entrusting our lives to the safety and maintenance standards of random low paid park employees. Carnivals are even worse in this regard. Not sure the risk-reward calculation really works out in our favor.

Infant care is wildly expensive to subsidize and rarely parents’ first choice.
“During a child’s first year, 69 percent of [NYC] families would like for a parent to be able to provide care… 6 percent want a child-care center”

I'm confident that neither Tylenol nor childhood vaccines is the cause of the increase in autism because there has been no increase in the prevalence of autism, it's entirely changes to diagnostic criteria and there's nothing to explain.

In England, students choose just a few subjects (usually 3) to study in the last 2 years of high school, so gender differences in their interests become more visible than in the US.

A new piece in the Financial Times created a great visualization of the results from this study.
TL;DR: Rent control helps people whose rents get limited, but it hurts everyone else. It pushes up rents, pushes down new building, and makes cities worse.
It is horrible policy.

The year is 2026. San Francisco tells the Vatican it has the power of God to put a soul in a computer program.
The last Crusade begins.

One of the most compelling parts about working at an ElonCo was the agility to pivot to whatever the most important problem was.
One day I said: I wasn’t hired to go after spam, but a tsunami is coming and I’m going to drop everything to focus on that.
The org is so flat and agile that your title is basically meaningless. Anyone can sound the alarm about a problem and solve it themselves—or rally the team to join them.
This is how startups work but it’s very hard to make it work in a larger company.

Google is going to win the race to AGI.
They have infinite money and infinite talent.
Gemini 4 Argon engineers have been given access to Opus 5.5
The TPU is an inference machine.
Training data flows through Google and YouTube at an astounding rate.
Google owns 25% of the worlds compute more than OpenAI, Anthropic and SpaceX combined.

My long-held opinion that "test anxiety" is fake: confirmed.
You're anxious because you don't know the material! The anxiety is called not having studied hard enough!

Gemini 4 Argon has an insanely low hallucination rate on Artificial Analysis. 15%.
Grok 4.7 is at 29%. GPT-6 Astra 45%. Opus 5.5 59%. Fable 5.1 69%.
The only models below it barely answer anything. None of them get more than 15% right.
It gets fewer answers right than Opus 5.5 on max, 50% against 66%. But when it doesnt know, it says so instead of making something up.
Cant wait to get my hands on it.
