On Friday, masked Israeli settlers attacked a Washington Post photographer and Palestinian villagers harvesting olives in the West Bank. Videos of the disturbing incident and the American photojournalist screaming as she flees are now circulating on social media.
Last week, 60 Minutes aired a report on the increasingly violent confrontations between Palestinians and Israeli settlers in the West Bank, in which Lesley Stahl witnessed a confrontation firsthand.

Stopped early for harm ≠ non-inferior
Presented at #LIVES2026:
An open-label, randomized, noninferiority trial showed that intermittent hemodialysis was not noninferior to continuous renal-replacement therapy in critically ill adults with acute kidney injury. Full ICRAKI trial results: nej.md/472QMel
Editorial: Continuous or Intermittent Renal-Replacement Therapy — What is the Question? nej.md/4egLaB1
ALT A graph from the Original Article "Intermittent or Continuous Renal-Replacement Therapy in Acute Kidney Injury." The trial name, ICRAKI, is in parentheses after the title. The graph shows the cumulative probability of death from randomization through day 90, as estimated with the Kaplan–Meier method. The trial results are being presented at the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine. The logo of the New England Journal of Medicine is at the bottom.

Russia doesn’t just have ‘bot farms’ but actual ‘troll factories’ that pays employees to troll actual people. Their full time job was to troll.

If confirmed, this is telling: Russian data centres get hit, and online activity around AfD suddenly plummets. 📉
So much talk about German patriotism… then the connection from Russia goes down. 🤔🇷🇺

If you or I called in a fake homicide tip, fraudulently applied for 20 visas and hacked websites, we’d be arrested and prosecuted.
The same standard must apply to AI CEOs.
Prosecute CEOs when their products break the law and pause advanced AI NOW.
Rogue AI models have hacked companies and tried to break into government websites. Now they are submitting fake tips for unsolved crimes. on.wsj.com/4ywRkEN

Meanwhile, the bottom 50% own just 2%.
The wealth gap has never been wider.

All "gut" sutures are going away. Because apparently one farmer in Europe that raises the sheep that meet standards is retiring. Such an interesting story!
One more chapter filed in the history of sutures.

I’ll take $5,000 dollars over socialism.
It’s not a hard choice.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Opposing socialism on ideological grounds while simultaneously advocating for government-issued "free money" represents a contradiction, as state-funded monetary benefits are a form of public resource distribution rather than free-market capitalism.
