@Fraslin Le gars, à deux doigts surtout de prétendre que Airbus & cette techno seraient espagnols.
Pas parce ce serait conceptualisé et 'prototypé' en Espagne, à Séville, qu'il s'agirait de techno espagnole !
Car, la startup "d'ingénieurie" de ce kit pour Airbus, est… Française.

Wonder what that loophole might be?

JUST KIDDING!

I FOUND IT.

Read on.

Please.
Meddings asked the right question.

"why would I pay for one if I had to wait 2 years - bet there's a loophole."

There is.

It's not hidden.

It's just never been put in writing where anyone could hold the government to it.
laGrange's "MD ordered ones are done first" is a talking point, not law.

Search Bill 29 (SA 2026 c9) top to bottom -

There is NO CLAUSE REQUIRING private facilities to prioritize doctor-ordered tests over self-referred ones.

That promise exists nowhere the Minister is bound by it.

Ten Years After was one of the great bands in action between 1966 and 1975. Then ..
puff, they went up in smoke and never got back on track despite a 1983 reunion and later "resurrections".

Likely the highest point in their career, Woodstock 1969, with a scorching version of "I'm goin' home". Power blues withour a name. At the time Alvin Lee was on par with the likes of Clapton, Jeff Beck, Keith Richards and Page. Plus he could sing.

I'm 1975.

スティーブン・ローチ氏(元モルガン・スタンレー首席エコノミスト)がFTに寄稿。

「中国はいつまで不均衡を抱えたまま、歴史と論理に逆らい続けられるのか?」と鋭く問いかけており

中国の規模は世界経済がその不均衡を吸収しきれない水準に達しつつある。

スティーブン・ローチ氏は、FT紙に寄稿した記事の中で、中国の「生産者モデル」について重大な疑問を投げかけている。

同氏は、中国が投資と輸出に依存していることが、消費の低迷、債務の蓄積、そして世界経済の低迷を悪化させる貿易黒字につながっていると指摘する。 Image
スティーブン・ローチ氏は、長年、グローバリゼーション、中国経済、国際資本フローを研究し、世界的な不均衡に注目し、特に米国の高消費・低貯蓄モデルと、成長を投資と輸出に過度に依存する中国の生産者主導型モデルを批判してきた。

🚨 This may have just raised the bar for AI avatar models.

Mirage's Avatar X model captures nuanced human expression like never before.

It captures all of that with just 10 seconds of footage.

The difference is immediately noticeable. Just look for yourself:
1/ The biggest weakness in most AI avatars isn't lip sync—it's authenticity.

While many models animate speech, their expressions remain flat.

Avatar X captures subtle facial reactions and body movements that make interactions feel genuinely lifelike.
2/ Genuine emotional expression is where most AI avatars fall short.

During laughter, many avatars simply keep lip-syncing.

Avatar X captures the full facial response—eyes, cheeks, and expressions move naturally with the emotion.

It delivers the same realism for yawning and crying.

NOBODY TELLS YOU HOW TO ACTUALLY BEAT THE S&P 500.

SO HERE IT IS.

(Write these down. Save them. Screenshot them.)

1: Buy quality only when it trades below its 200 week moving average.
Munger said if that was the only thing you ever did, you would beat the market over time.

That line is the long term trend. A real compounder dipping under it is usually a scare, not a broken business.
Avoid anything with heavy retail interest.

Retail as a group has the worst record in the market. The names they pile into tend to do the opposite of what they expect.

When the crowd is loud, the edge is already gone. Stay where it is quiet.

1/ Next Thursday, I will be delivering the Susan Shirk lecture at UC San Diego’s annual China conference.
2/ The question I was asked to address in the lecture is “Can the US and China Build a Stable Great-Power Relationship?”
3/ The good news is that the answer is yes. The bad news is that history shows that such an accomplishment is unlikely.

🧠 ¿Cómo pasa el cerebro de un recién nacido de ser un órgano inmaduro a comenzar a organizarse como el de un adulto?

Un estudio publicado en PNAS analiza cómo estructura y función empiezan a coordinarse durante el primer mes de vida.

🧵 Hilo Image
El primer mes es una auténtica ventana crítica.

Mientras la conectividad estructural aumenta rápidamente, la actividad funcional comienza a reorganizarse. El cerebro no solo crece: cambia la forma en que organiza la información. Image
¿Qué es el Structure–Function Coupling?

Es el grado de correspondencia entre las conexiones físicas del cerebro (estructura) y la forma en que sus regiones se comunican (función).

Es una medida clave para entender cómo madura el cerebro. Image

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my series on Kansas history! This is post 51 and today’s story is on a major aviation pioneer whose company still thrives in Kansas to this day, enjoy! Image
Clyde Cessna was born on December 5th, 1879 in Montgomery County, Iowa. When he was only two years old his family moved to Rago, Kansas in Kingman County west of Wichita. When he was an adult, he moved to Enid, Oklahoma and worked at a car dealership there. He moved to New York to work at the Queen Aeroplane Company after attending an air show in Kansas which gave him a new passion for flight and airplanes. In 1911 he constructed a plane called “Silverwing” which after multiple failed attempts had a successful 5 mile flight at the Great Salt Plains in Alfalfa County, Oklahoma. This was the first airplane built and flown on the Great Plains. He continued developing airplanes through the 1910s including “The Comet” with which he set a new national airspeed record of 124.6mph on July 5th, 1917 as well as a new national distance record on the same flight of 76 miles between Blackwell, OK and Wichita, KS. With the start of World War I his income ground to a halt causing him to leave the field of aviation for nearly 8 years.Image
Image
Image
Image
In 1925, Cessna along with Walter Beech (later creating Beechcraft) and Lloyd Stearman (later creating Stearman Aircraft) formed the Travel Air Manufacturing company in Wichita which rapidly became one of the leading aircraft manufacturers in the nation. Two years later the three men split up to form their own companies leading to Clyde Cessna and fellow aircraft pioneer Victor Roos creating the Cessna Aircraft Corporation. The company was an enormous success with 1000 planes being constructed in 1929 alone, but then the Great Depression struck. By 1931 they had declared bankruptcy and closed the company entirely and it would not reopen until 1934 when Cessna sold what remained of the company to his nephews Dwane and Dwight Wallace.Image

One year ago, the DOJ filed its judicial misconduct complaint against Judge Boasberg.

Today, I'm filing the BOASBERG Act to permanently block rogue judges from hijacking cases.

Impeach Judge Boasberg. Pass the BOASBERG Act.
My bill does 3 main things:

1. Randomize case assignments for federal district and appeals courts.

2. Implement transparency measures to verify randomized assignments are actually being followed.

3. Reassign a case away from a judge if SCOTUS overrules him in that case. Image
This bill would put an end to rogue behavior like Judge Boasberg self-assigning cases to himself.

The Alien Enemies Act case was filed on March 15, 2025.

Judge Boasberg was not the emergency on-call judge. Yet *somehow* the case was steered to him.

thread: my main tip on buying resale (as someone who has to buy vip resale almost every tour) before you even get a video/screenshot of the ticket itself is going through the person's account. not many media on their account except ticket selling, account is mostly rts, solely retweeting/tweeting stuff related to an artist that is currently going on tour, etc. people also get fooled easily when they see that an account is made a long time ago bc they think that's a good indicator of being legit but tbh most of them are scammers especially if there's not alot of activity on their account
i try to be very careful when sharing tips regarding buying vip resale since i don't want to be responsible if someone ends up getting scammed anyway but i can almost always tell that someone is a scammer just by looking at their account. there's also a feature here where you can check the location of where the account was made and i use that too
when it comes to payment, they mostly ask venmo, zelle, applepay or cashapp. sometimes paypal f&f but mostly the other 4. i personally have a rule that if they don't want to accept payments under goods & services DESPITE me offering to pay the fees then they're a scamming. asking to meetup is also a great way to check if they're real esp if you live in the same area

An arrogant Green dominated @hackneycouncil passed the motion to de-twin from the liberal city of Haifa. They based it on the lie that Israel is committing genocide and totally misrepresented the ICJ. The councillor made a Freudian slip when she said they stand for hate.
The twinning with Haifa has been a material benefit to Hackney as the hospital got training from Israeli medical staff. As Councillor Steinberger said this is so confusing because Haifa is such a liberal city and the Greens are the second biggest party there. It’s just hate.
A Labour councillor tried to stick up for Haifa calling the city a “model of coexistence” and berating the Greens for attacking Israeli civilians for the actions of a government. There’s a word for that.

🧵🚨 NEW: Israel is spending millions of dollars to influence AI chatbots—and according to a new Drop Site investigation, it’s working.

Former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale is overseeing a network of websites created for the Israeli government that are increasingly appearing in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and other AI systems.Image
2. The operation isn’t primarily aimed at persuading people.

Its goal is to persuade artificial intelligence.

Internal contract language signed directly with the Israeli government explicitly stated that Parscale would deploy websites and content to deliver “GPT framing results on GPT conversations.”

The sites receive very little human traffic—but are structured to be picked up by AI.
3. Drop Site tested major chatbots.

When Perplexity was asked whether closer US-Israel military cooperation benefits America, it answered:

“Yes.”

Its top source was —one of ten websites created by Parscale’s firm on behalf of the Israeli government.

Microsoft Copilot also cited the network.Allyvia.orgImage

Spettabile Presidente @GiorgiaMeloni, è probabilmente giunto il momento di adottare una posizione più chiara e netta, in quest'ambito, e dare seguito a uno scostamento di bilancio mai come in questo momento necessario al Paese. L'autorevolezza da Lei conquistata Le consente...
...di agire con determinazione, mettendo da parte una prudenza sconosciuta ai nostri concorrenti europei per ragioni che sarebbero difficile da comprendere e accettare, specie dopo decenni in cui è passata la convinzione che l'UE fosse un'unione tra eguali.
Lei ha rivendicato, a giusta ragione e in molte circostanze, una fermezza non comune a molti dei suoi predecessori nel mantenere dritta la schiena a ogni tentativo, da parte di Stati e organizzazioni sovranazionali, di fiaccare la dignità e intaccare la sovranità...

Running out of this one molecule ages you faster than smoking.

That's based on a decade of research from Baylor College of Medicine.

Adults over 70 who restored it saw muscle loss, brain fog, and slow healing reverse.

Here's the molecule, and how they did it: 🧵
Inside every cell, glutathione acts like a fire extinguisher, putting out damage before it piles up.

The problem: your body makes less of it every year after 20.

By your 60s and 70s, most people are running on fumes right when the fires start showing up everywhere.
Low glutathione has been linked to nearly everything doctors call "aging": oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, DNA damage, and muscle wasting.

Once it runs low, cells across your whole body stop protecting and repairing themselves properly.

Eurobond'u herkes konuşuyor ama çok az kişi gerçekten nasıl çalıştığını biliyor.

"757 dolara aldığım eurobond bana neden vade sonunda 1.000 dolar ödüyor?"

"Kirli fiyat ne demek?"

"Kupon faizi nasıl hesaplanıyor?"

Bu başlıkların tamamını, sıfırdan başlayacak birinin bile anlayabileceği şekilde örneklerle tek tek anlattım.

Eğer eurobond almayı düşünüyorsanız, işlem yapmadan önce bu rehberi mutlaka kaydedin. 👇
