„The U.S. has considered a drawdown in Syria before. In Dec. 2018, @POTUS @realDonaldTrump abruptly announced a full pullout of roughly 2,000 U.S. troops, leading to the resignation of then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis.
@michaeldweiss @POTUS @realDonaldTrump 2).
Then-National Security Adviser @AmbJohnBolton and other top aides managed to soft-pedal the decision, leaving a residual force in the country.”

I finally understand how LLMs actually work and why most prompts suck.

After reading Anthropic's internal docs + top research papers...

Here are 10 prompting techniques that completely changed my results 👇

(Comment "Guide" and I'll DM Claude Mastery Guide for free) Image
1/ Assign a Fake Constraint

This sounds illegal but it forces the AI to think creatively instead of giving generic answers.
The constraint creates unexpected connections.

Copy-paste this:

"Explain quantum computing using only kitchen analogies. Every concept must relate to cooking, utensils, or food preparation."
2/ Multi-Shot with Negative Examples

Everyone teaches positive examples. Nobody talks about showing the AI what NOT to do.

This eliminates 90% of bad outputs instantly.

Copy-paste this:

"Write a product description for noise-canceling headphones.

Bad example: 'Great headphones with amazing sound.'
Good example: 'Adaptive ANC technology blocks up to 99% of ambient noise while preserving natural conversation clarity through transparency mode.'

Now write one for wireless earbuds."Image

We now have death data for England for 2025.

What does it show?

2024 and 2025 has seen total mortality at about the same level as ONS predicted back in 2018 (already taking into account ageing and growing population).

Let's look in more detail
🧵 Image
Over 85 year old rate (based on ONS pop estimates) have returned to their 2016-2019 trendline.

Despite massive excess there was never the expected deficit.

The ONS predicted far too many deaths in 2024 and undercorrected for 2025 (green line). Image
The picture is similar for 75-84 year olds with far too many ONS predicted deaths in 2024 and an small correction for 2025. Image

🧵 Detailed Thread on “कलावाद्यन्तयोः स्थितिः” & Non–existence Of Kṣatriyas.

For the sake of making it Non-controversial I will limit myself to the works of Brāhmaṇ Scholars & Traditional Ācāryas whose words are rooted in Scriptures. No orientalist's opinion is cited.
[1/25]
This Shloka is a fully concocted one with no Reliable Manuscript evidence to back it up, the Brāhmaṇ Supporters of this claim were not able to produce any real evidence for its presence in any credible Manuscript. This is a mere quotation with no reliable source.

[2/25] Indian Historical Quarterly Volume 16 , Article Titled “ Vaishyas In Bengal ”
Dr. Kane notes that only a handful of Brāhmaṇs had sided with this line of thought while most of the Brāhmaṇ lobby was against this Agenda. He mentions how almost 95 % Dharmasastra Writer, Nibandhakars & Traditional Ācāryas mutually agree on Existence of Kṣatriyas.

#StepsBeyondEdison
Dr. Gurtej Singh Sandhu (born October 24, 1960) is an Indian-American inventor and semiconductor technologist renowned for his groundbreaking contributions to memory and storage technology.
As of early 2026, he is recognized as the 7th most prolific inventor in the world by U.S. utility patents, having surpassed Thomas Edison’s record. 

Patent Count: He holds over 1,432 U.S. utility patents (surpassing Edison's 1,093) and more than 2,200 patents worldwide.
Key Innovations: His work includes pioneering developments in Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), pitch doubling, and oxygen-free titanium coatings, which are essential for manufacturing high-performance DRAM and NAND memory chips used in modern smartphones and supercomputers.

Environmental pollutants & the gut microbiota: mechanistic links from exposure to systemic disease 🧵

▶️This review integrates recent advances on how air pollutants, heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants, & emerging contaminants perturb microbial composition, metabolic activity, & host-microbe signaling.

▶️Pollutant exposure alters microbial-derived metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, and tryptophan derivatives, thereby impairing intestinal barrier integrity & immune homeostasis.
▶️These microbiota-driven disturbances trigger oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, & neuroendocrine dysregulation, contributing to metabolic disorders, immune imbalance, neurotoxicity, & carcinogenesis.

Functional roles and origins of the gut microbiotaImage
Schematic representation of major environmental pollutants and their entry pathways affecting human health, particularly via gut microbiota. Diverse pollutants including atmospheric (e.g., PM2.5, NOx, O3), waterborne, soil-based, radioactive, light, and noise pollution can influence host physiology. Airborne pollutants such as sulfur-containing compounds (NO2, H2S), nitrogen-containing gases (NH3, NOx), photochemical oxidants (O3, PAN), particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10), carbon monoxide (CO), and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) enter primarily through inhalation and systemic absorption. These exposures disrupt multiple organs, particularly the lungs, liver, and gastrointestinal tract, where they may perturb gut microbial homeostasis.Image
Schematic illustration of the proposed cascade linking environmental pollutant exposure to gut microbiota dysbiosis, host functional disruptions, and chronic disease outcomes. Environmental exposures such as PM2.5, lead (Pb), and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are known to alter gut microbiota composition and function. This dysbiosis, often characterized by decreased short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and increased Proteobacteria abundance, may lead to multiple host disruptions including immune activation, metabolic dysfunction, and neuroendocrine imbalance.Image

Result of UA🇺🇦 counter attack:

In the early hours (around 4 a.m. local time), a drone attack targeted the oil depot (neftebaza) of АО "Пензанефтепродукт" (JSC "PenzaNefteProdukt"), a Rosneft-affiliated facility in Penza, Russia. This resulted in a significant fire at the site.

SITREP : 1210 { HOLY FUCK Moment}

The Assamese Woman at Korgaon #Goa who this Russian Guy Alexei also claims to have murdered through Drugs Over-Dose; I have been spotting her since 2021 I guess, when I used to be in Arambol.

Probably she came to Arambol during Lockdown (1) Image
(2) Arambol is a small village, and while moving you spot regulars, either at Road or at Shore in evening.

She was Dark, Stocky built, Less than 5 ft and kind of wanna be Hippy in Appearence. Nose, Ears, Eyelids pierced. Tattoos. Weird Hairstyle.

Driving a rickety Honda Duo
(3) She had a kind of steady Russian BF, who was shorter than her. Long hair. Thin. And weirder than her.

They would be always together. I used to go to some Free Parties then, and they would be there too.

She used to kind of sing and Dance also (that silly kind of belly dance)

1/9 Jack Smith did a HUGE service to this country, while YOU Republicans have LIES through your asses trying to excuse Trump's behavior that day...YOU are a rogue politician who just LIES to people! Well GUESS what DARRELL! WE were COMPLETELY disgusted by YOU and your SLIMY
2/9 ReTRUMPlican counterparts, who are SO scared of having to answer WHY the Epstein files have not been released for over a MONTH, when TRUMP himself wrote it into LAW, that you took a chance to allow Smith to testify, thinking you could rattle him. It was an EPIC failure. YOU
3/9 are one of the stupidest ones. Jack Smith and his team DID NOT spy on you...lets clear up THAT lie right now. The phone "logs" you refer to as a tool for "spying" was NOTHING more than a log showing what calls were made to who and for how long...
1. NONE of your phones were
