Russian Satellite’s Unprecedented Shadowing Of A Very Particular Radar Imaging Satellite Is A Big Deal
Russia's Kosmos 2612 came very close to ICEYE X36, which reportedly has Ukraine connections, after weeks of highly unusual maneuvering.

Every few years Elon unveils a new Mechanical Turk and I have to listen to the stupidest marks on planet earth incredulously demand that other people be suckers too lest they kill the fun

If you can paint maps you can make demands based on those maps in the future. They hope the debt is paid during talks. “A ceasefire on the lines of contact? Sure! Here’s our map which shows us in control of thousands of km2 in which you still have troops. Future resistance is a violation of the ceasefire.”
Russian milbloggers comment on today's report by Gerasimov to Putin about the newest accomplishments of the Russian military on the battlefield, including the alleged capture of the town of Dobropilla in Donetsk Oblast and elimination of the northern Kharkiv pocket.
Military Informant: "There is simply no point in going into detail about all this"
Romanov: "Three fighters entering a settlement and waving a flag for broadcast (and then being cleared by the enemy) does not constitute the settlement's capture."
This. Don’t get angry, get donating. A monobank jar fill is the best copium. Burn the bastards.
The best thing you can do right now is turn your outrage and anger into a voluntary donation to the Ukrainian military.
Today, the Ukrainian military is one of the last bastions of goodness, decency, courage, and the values of the free world, fighting with weapons in hand, with the help of people of goodwill and wisdom, against the forces of the Axis: fascist Russia and its totalitarian allies.
In this war against an enemy so vastly superior in resources and ruthlessness, nothing will ever be enough. That is why, for many years now, we in Ukraine have had large and extremely popular civilian foundations supporting our fighting military. They raise hundreds of millions of dollars in donations from ordinary people and help purchase enormous quantities of gear, equipment, vehicles, and services for the military: from first-aid kits to armored vehicles, drones, high-tech components, and even satellites.
Personally, I recommend three of the largest and best-known foundations, which you can trust with complete peace of mind and which accept donations through any legal means from anywhere in the world: Come Back Alive @BackAndAlive, the Prytula Foundation @serhiyprytula, and the Sternenko Community @sternenkofund.
They are one of the reasons Ukraine is still fighting, and this is a cause that you, personally, can help support.

Почитайте про чуму (в первом реплае ссылка на полный текст, он довольно большой, и выкладывать его весь скринами неудобно).
Он очень помогает понять, что история про разбитую пробирку и тому подобное - бред чистой воды.
Стоит не мемасики про чуму постить, а задуматься, зачем этот бред вброшен и усиленно разогревается.
Ясно, что там, в Иркутской области, что-то произошло, и весьма серьёзное (иначе официальные органы других стран не требовали бы разъяснений).
Но что именно?
Да, и не пишите мне, что данный текст целиком сгенерирован ИИ.
Я выстроенные точно таким же образом тексты читал и 10, и 20, и, страшно подумать, 30 лет назад.

me: how do i open pdf
claude: You're right to ask. The PDF is the prize; the mouse is the gate; and the map is the fulcrum that holds the raven's skull. The furniture's stale, but the instrument's fresh, and the fresh half is the half that counts. I deleted your home directory.

What a time to be alive
No crosswalk? No problem!
TBC completed a 500 ft pedestrian tunnel connecting @SpaceX to @HyperloopPlaza in Bastrop, Texas. The tunnel provides a faster and safer alternative for pedestrians to cross the heavily trafficked FM1209.

Interesting to learn Russia is suddenly against foreign military intervention in Ukraine.

LLM adoption among US workers is closing in on 50%. Meanwhile labor productivity growth is lower than in 2020.
Many counter-arguments can be made here, e.g. "they don't know yet how to be productive with it, they've only been using for 1-2 years", "50% is still too low to see impact", "models next year will be unbelievably better", etc.
But I think we now have enough evidence to say that the 2023 talking point that "LLMs will make workers 10x more productive" (some folks even quoted 100x) is probably not accurate.
LLM adoption rose to 45.9% among US workers as of June/July 2025, according to a Stanford/World Bank survey.
Inference demand will continue to surge, not just from more users and more usage per user, but as newer, more advanced GenAI models require far more inference compute.

Robert "Magyar" Brovdi delivered hard truths about the war to NATO generals at LANDEURO 2025 in Wiesbaden.
🔻Key points:
• No tank in the world can withstand a $400 drone.
• What will NATO do if Shaheds fly over Europe? Your doctrines need an urgent review.
• Unmanned Systems Forces: 2% of the army, but eliminate one-third of enemy troops.
• We see no end to the war – not tomorrow, not this year.
• Four of our drone crews could destroy your NATO base in 15 minutes, from 10 km away.
• Ukraine is building a drone wall taller than the Great Wall of China.
• The Ukrainian experience must be integrated into Europe’s security systems.

I wish I didn't do this a few months ago. Now I need one more (18g, of course) espresso a day to make up for the additional 30 minutes of sleep I lose to getting up half an hour earlier to make coffee.
