NEW | The Iranian regime appears to have expanded its threshold for attacking Israel as part of its broader effort to preserve Hezbollah. (1/7)
The Khatam ol Anbia Central Headquarters announced the “cessation of armed forces operations” against Israel but threatened that Iranian forces would inflict “much more severe and crushing measures” if the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continues to operate against Hezbollah, including in southern Lebanon. Iranian officials and media have previously only threatened to attack Israel if the IDF struck Beirut. (2/7)
The Iranian regime’s inclusion of Israeli activity in southern Lebanon in its threshold for attacking Israel is part of the Iranian effort to try to curb Israeli operations against Hezbollah, particularly by trying to pressure the United States to convince Israel to halt operations against Hezbollah.

⭕️🧵Full details from last night's marathon of talks and consultations between Bibi and Trump and senior US leadership: In Israel, there was a desire to carry out a more "significant" attack in terms of the targets to be hit. Among other things, last night there was a discussion with the US leadership about the possibility of attacking energy facilities—the US message was unequivocal: NO
📌 As is known, PM Netanyahu spoke last night with President Trump, but not only him; there was a marathon of talks held last night by PM Netanyahu, including with Secretary of State Rubio and Secretary of War Hegeseth, where they went into the details and targets to be attacked.
📌 Senior Israelis briefed on the Netanyahu-Trump conversation say President Trump told the PM: attack and move on.
"Because this Court has elevated unadulterated textualism over common sense
and longstanding principles of the criminal law, and [] we are now treading on dangerous constitutional waters." Judge Tjoflat, dissenting. Fascinating split with liberal Judges Abudu and Rosenbaum.

A pair of drug dealers ran an operation out of their home. Other dealers would sell drugs for them. One had a propensity to OD. She obtained drugs and died. Can the home-owner/chief drug dealer be prosecuted for dealing drugs and death resulting? Yes, per Judge Abudu.
Judge Abudu, joined by Judge Rosenbaum, concurs to explain why, under Eleventh Circuit precedent she reaches the result the sentence is constitutional. But she calls on the Eleventh Circuit to reconsider its precedent. Given her view of the law, she finds affirmance is required.
Aleister Crowley’s Liber 333, "The Book of Lies," is a masterpiece of philosophical disruption. Published around 1912, it isn’t just a collection of cryptic occult riddles, but a highly conscious manual designed to decondition the human mind from its own illusions.

To truly understand its design, one must look beyond the printed table of contents... On the surface, the book presents exactly 91 manifest chapters, but its true initiatory architecture holds a hidden totally of 93, deeply tied to the core of Thelemic philosophy.
This numerical blind spot is achieved through two unnumbered keys: Chapter 0 (the question mark representing Nuit's void) and the "Ante Præscriptum" preface... Together, they shift the book's frequency from 91 to 93, the supreme number of True Will (Thelema) and Love (Ágape).
8 Places You Should Stay Silent
1. When you’re angry - The Prophet ﷺ advised to stay silent.
2. When you don’t have knowledge - “Do not pursue that of which you have no knowledge.” (17:36)
3. When someone is sharing a hardship - listen more, speak less.

3. When someone is sharing a hardship - listen more, speak less.
4. When your words may turn into gossip - silence protects honor.
5. When you feel like showing off good deeds - hidden deeds are more sincere.
6. When a discussion turns into an argument - not every argument is worth continuing.

In 2026, agents live in the command line.
So we taught the `hf` CLI to speak their language.
Here's what it takes to be a good CLI when half your users aren't human 🧵

Coding agents are heavy users now, not future traffic.
On the @huggingface Hub, Claude Code alone drives ~49M requests/month. Codex ~36M.
A good CLI in 2026 treats the agent as a first-class user.

Principle 1: One command, two renderings.
Same command. The CLI detects an agent and adapts:
• Humans => colors, aligned tables, truncation, hints
• Agents => tab-separated, full values, no truncation
No flags to remember. (this is the thumbnail 👆)

Free newsletter: The ROI debate has come at worst time for Anthropic and OpenAI - two companies that can’t afford to slow down thanks to their $1.1 trillion in compute commitments and a data center buildout that needs a trillion in annual revenue by 2030.

My appearance on Bloomberg last week ruffled some feathers because I don't have "skin in the game" (IE: money in the market). This is because AI boosters can't imagine somebody with a moral position on an industry run by grifters and sold with lies.

The AI industry is anxious because it knows it made too many egregious promises. There are 190GW+ in planned AI data centers, and to justify their existence, they'll need $2 trillion+ in AI compute revenue by 2030.
There's currently less than $100bn.

NEW: Last week, the Senate Health, Education, Labor & Pensions committee held a hearing on pediatric gender medicine.
The hearing was predictable and largely unremarkable but for a very curious, and potentially very important, omission. 🧵

At no point did the Senate Democrats or their expert witness, @shannonminter5 of the National Center for LGBTQ (formerly Lesbian) Rights (@NCLRights), refer to or cite the authority of the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, or WPATH (@wpath).
In 2023, Minter, an attorney, testified before the House Judiciary Committee on the same topic.
Minter's submitted written testimony from that hearing cited WPATH and its Standards of Care, v. 8.

Whilst humans are on the ropes, recovering from corporate rejection, what happens if individuals take up AI themselves, seeking to solve both wicked and systemic blockchain problems?

There's an ayah in the Quran that compares certain believers to donkeys.
And it's not talking about disbelievers.
It's talking about us.

Allah says:
“The example of those who were entrusted with the Torah but then did not carry it is that of a donkey carrying books.” (Surah Al-Jumu’ah 62:5)
The donkey carries valuable knowledge on its back, yet understands nothing of it.

🧵 There is no reason to think that professing a gender identity makes a person less likely to fit the offending patterns usual for their sex.
In fact, prison data suggests that trans-identifying males may even be more likely to commit sex offences than other men.

Evidence of trans-identifying men, male crossdressers and other men with various gender identities committing vile sexual crimes is piling up.
