Nu de Parlementaire Enquête gestart is, rijst de vraag: waarom denkt men dat de #oversterfte verdwenen is? In dit artikel leggen we stapsgewijs uit hoe dat werkelijk zit. Deze grafiek is wellicht het duidelijkste. Onze "Normsterfte" in het zonnetje.

We zien hier de curve die per leeftijd de kans toont om nog in leven te zijn: 100% bij geboorte en vrijwel 0% boven de 100 jaar. Daartussen in neemt die kans af.
Als we naar de blauwe lijn kijken, zien we de situatie in 2000. Op 81-jarige leeftijd leeft dan nog de helft.

Elk jaar schuift die lijn een stukje op. Elk jaar komt er ongeveer 0,1 jaar bij: we vergrijzen langzaam. In 2030 verwachten we 4 jaar ouder te worden.
Voor 2010 en 2020 zijn deze lijnen ook ingetekend. Dit is dus onder de aanname dat we elk jaar een beetje gezonder worden.

@LoomerUnleashed Prime Minister Netanyahu and Israeli officials have pushed to gradually phase out or transform traditional U.S. Foreign Military Financing (FMF) aid—currently around $3.8 billion annually—into a model focused on joint ventures, co-development,

@LoomerUnleashed co-production of weapons/tech, increased Israeli purchases of U.S. arms via Foreign Military Sales (FMS), and reciprocal investments. This includes areas like advanced weapons, cyber, AI, missile defense (e.g., Golden Dome), and quantum computing.

@LoomerUnleashed President Trump has reportedly supported Netanyahu’s approach as aligning with "America First" priorities—reducing one-way aid while maintaining or increasing overall U.S. weapons flow and strategic benefits to American industry.

While hundreds of thousands were killed, enslaved, or fled, a significant Jewish population never left. They shifted from Judea north to the Galilee, where Jewish scholars compiled the Mishna and the Jerusalem Talmud—the very foundations of Rabbinic Judaism.
Over the next 1,500 years, through Byzantine rule, Arab conquests, Crusades & Ottoman rule, indigenous Jews remained, dressed like their neighbors, spoke Arabic as their primary language, understood local laws & fiercely maintained their Jewish identity and religious practices.
They came to be known as the Musta'arabim (meaning "those who live among the Arabs" or "Arabized Jews"). When waves of Sephardic Jews arrived after the Spanish Expulsion in 1492, they documented encountering this well-established, native Jewish population.

I bear partial responsibility for the entire Naval Woke College debate. I’ve been hammering them for years.
Let me tell you why…. 🧵
Strap in, it’s a LONG story.
Go all the way back to the start of the Trump 1.0 administration.
Actually, go back further. Go back to Obama.
The Navy is NOT in charge of shipbuilding. They are in charge of ship buying.
The DOT is in charge of shipyards. Specifically @DOTMARAD. And USCG handles shipyard regulations.
Internationally, the United Nations @IMOHQ is in charge. But MARAD is the only major agency in the United States chartered to promote an American industry. So Obama had to subvert it.
Obama went out of his way to play dumb on all maritime matters. But here’s the thing: he grew up in Hawaii. It is impossible to grow up on an island and not understand shipping.
He wanted to turn the oceans into a collectivist wonderland run by Marxists.
Here is how he did it.
First, he installed the failed governor of Mississippi, Ray Mabus, as Secretary of the Navy.
Then he installed the worst USCG Commandant the nation has ever seen: Admiral Papp, who promoted Senior Executive Service officers aligned with UN globalists.
Papp’s SES pushed the UN to further adopt climate change and DEI. He landed his top USCG JAG a job leading the IMO and made sure the elected Secretary General was little more than a figurehead.
The problem: the UN has zero authority to regulate warships. So Papp had Mabus simply order the Navy to accept USCG shipbuilding rules that were, in fact, UN standards.
Then Mabus pushed hard on projects he knew would fail: LCS, Zumwalt, and a massive initiative to convert every Navy ship to run on used French fry oil.
He also forced thousands of change orders onto new aircraft carriers.
Doubling down on failed designs while welcoming UN-approved inspectors into American shipyards was a one-two punch.
Bad ships, plus crushing red tape, would cripple the most powerful Navy in the world.
But the UN one-world-government scheme requires more than weakening the strongest. You also have to elevate the weakest.
Chinese shipbuilding was growing, but their workmanship was a disgrace. They could only build simple vessels: coal bulkers and the like.
So Obama dispatched an American NGO to Chinese shipyards to teach them everything we know. Not just any NGO. The most profitable nonprofit in America.
(For legal reasons, I can’t name them.)
That NGO pulled the best naval architects, marine engineers, and inspectors out of American yards and sent them to China.
They are still there today.
But what about MARAD? It is mandated, by law, to advance American maritime interests.
He simply didn’t appoint anyone for years. He installed a junior congressional aide with a history of poor performance as acting administrator for most of his first term.
(In his second term, when Navy shipbuilding efforts started crashing and burning, Mabus put a submarine O5 in the job.)
Ships and shipyards are heavily unionized, so the AFL-CIO Marxists made sure no one complained.
And Obama figured out that the GOP hates the Jones Act so every time a based mariner or shipbuilder complained just remind them how the Republicans want to steal their jobs.
Simultaneously you get Democrat friends in the Senate to support the number one JA and Merchant Marine hater: John McCain
If anyone complains about Navy shipbuilding you point them to all the ways Dems are cooperating with McCain
McCain who was undermining the shipyards and commercial maritime base.
Now, how do you keep the Navy itself from screaming bloody murder?
First, you double down on submarines, which cannot police the oceans the way surface ships can. UN rules were kept out of Electric Boat.
Second, you push hard on joint warfare. You send your best and brightest officers not to sea, but to the desert, to serve as support elements for the Army.
You pull in reservists like @PeteButtigieg and @RepGoodlander.

You do everything you can to land book deals, podcasts, and movie roles for Navy SEALs fighting on dry land.
Dial up every Navy activity ashore. Dial down everything at sea.
The final blow: commercial fishermen were not happy. And they are a loud constituency.
Kneecapping them was easy. All Obama had to do was designate 553 million acres of ocean as National Monuments and watch the industry collapse.
You also had to divide and conquer. Alaska has the most powerful commercial fishing lobby by far, so you don’t “protect” those fisheries, and you get McCain to make their governor his running mate.
This was the easiest part of the whole operation. He styled himself a modern-day Teddy Roosevelt, and the GOP signed off without a fight.
So what does any of this have to do with War Colleges?
I was naive to most of this when Trump was elected. All I knew was that the Naval War College had become incredibly powerful in steering naval policy under Mabus.
War colleges train future admirals and generals. They plant ideas and policies in officers’ heads before those officers ever pin on Rear Admiral.
I knew they were going woke. I knew Tom Nichols was off the rails. I did not know how deep the corruption ran.
All I knew at the time was how powerful they had become.
So Trump gets elected in 2016, and we finally have a chance to reform MARAD. But the Navy admirals won’t let go.
The narrative: the Navy was locked in a zero-sum fight for shipbuilding funding against the US Merchant Marine (run by MARAD at DOT) and the USCG.
The Navy saw the US Merchant Marine as a threat, not an ally. They refused to let us run our own agency. A Navy guy had to be in charge.
But DOT Secretary Elaine Chao wanted to save shipyards. So she cut a compromise: the Navy could pick the Merchant Marine Commandant to run MARAD, but he had to be a Merchant Marine Academy grad.
Elaine was married to Mitch McConnell. The Navy couldn’t say no.
They settled on Rear Admiral Mark Buzby.
Buz came in swinging. He reorganized the Merchant Marine Reserve. He funded a fleet of new training ships. He recruited top talent to run each academy. He saved Philly Shipyard.
I did a lot of work behind the scenes to help Buz.
Buz’s next big project was to restore our maritime highways: the rivers and waterways we need to reindustrialize.
Trucks are great for an import economy. They cannot carry enough weight to rebuild steel mills, shipyards, and the rest of heavy manufacturing. You need rail. You need barges.
I launched a startup at Buzby’s request and poured my personal time and money into the problem.
Then the New York Times ran a hit piece on Elaine Chao’s ties to Chinese maritime interests.
I won’t get into the details. I’m not here to defend or trash the McConnell-Chao family.
They are a complicated bunch, and I could write a book on the great and terrible things they have done.
The point is this: the Dems all follow the New York Times. So the unions and the rest of the maritime coalition had to back away from Chao’s maritime initiative.
The article did even more damage to McConnell, who already had a rocky relationship with Trump. MAGA turned on Mitch, sparking a war still raging today, with Mitch blocking the SAVE Act and Thune retaliating by blocking the SHIPS Act.
At the same time, the so-called West Point Mafia (WPN) was taking over the Trump administration. The Army Corps of Engineers controls the marine highways, and the Army would have to pay for Buz’s plan.
Pompeo, Esper, Milley (Princeton, but loyal to the club), and the rest of the WPA wanted that money flowing to defense contractors and consultants. Not to reindustrialization that would have strengthened the Navy.

By the midterms, the Trump administration, under the WPM, was tearing itself apart and lost Congress.
Another powerful West Point graduate, Jack Reed, took McCain’s old gavel at the Senate Armed Services Committee.
The WPA didn’t just block Chao and Buz. They sold off most of the Army’s watercraft fleet at auction and turned the Army Corps of Engineers into paperwork pushers who now subcontract almost everything to whichever private firm spends the most on lobbyists.
Certain shipyards complained. They were handed more submarine contracts as a consolation prize and told to build out consulting businesses and digital products instead of ships.
The only person who put up a fight was Trump himself. He tasked his most loyal advisor, along with the NSC and NEC, to find solutions the White House could drive on its own.
O’Brien at the NSC pushed hard. He was cornered at every turn by Milley’s Joint Chiefs and SECDEF Esper.
Esper had already engineered a coup to force the Secretary of the Navy to resign, replacing him with a string of feckless acting secretaries.
The NEC and Navarro both worked hard to save shipbuilding. They had very different ideas.
Navarro was a China hawk. He wanted to unite the core maritime constituents to fight the CCP together. To do that, he had to win over the Jones Act lobby.
Kevin Hassett at NEC wanted to pull internal levers to give heavy industry a boost. In his view, that meant suspending the Jones Act.
There is more to this story, of course. Both men are patriots who tried to do the right thing. Both were aligned on saving shipyards.
But the WPM used the Jones Act to drive a wedge between Hassett and Navarro.
It didn’t ultimately work. Both men are back together in Trump 2.0. At the time, though, it made anything maritime they tried to do agonizing.
Then 2020 happened.
Retired Navy admirals wanted a Navy guy running DOT. The WPM wanted a land war veteran. The Obama crowd wanted a Marxist aligned with the UN.
They settled on a Navy Intelligence reservist: Pete Buttigieg.
Pete is politically savvy. He knew the maritime issues, especially the Jones Act, were political kryptonite.
And everyone was at each other’s throats, demanding action as shipbuilding, the Navy, the USCG, and the Merchant Marine all started collapsing in readiness.
But Obama gave him the playbook: do nothing.
Ignore MARAD.
Ignore the Navy.
Ignore the USCG.
When Congress hands you $1.1 trillion to fix infrastructure, just don’t do any maritime projects.
Let the UN take over and quietly build out a massive UN Carbon Tax that will fund UN DEI, climate programs, and Marxism for decades.
Don’t even help the White House.
When they ask for Merchant Marine ships to support the Gaza Pier, send one that’ll catch fire. When the Baltimore Bridge collapses and Biden puts you in charge, pass it off to the broken Army Corps of Engineers. When the Houthis fire on US Merchant Marine ships, don’t say a word. Not even a tweet.
But this thread isn’t about that criminal neglect by Mayor Pete.
It’s about the Naval Woke College.

Many diseases, including obesity, affect multiple organs and body systems simultaneously. But studying these systemic effects at cellular resolution across the whole body has remained a major challenge.
Using DISCO tissue clearing and light-sheet microscopy, we are able to image intact mouse bodies in 3D at single-cell resolution. The bottleneck has been analyzing these massive datasets in an unbiased and scalable way.

Synthetic Persona Pretraining (SPP): Alignment from Token Zero
Current alignment is shallow - values bolted on after pretraining can be routed around. To solve this, we wrote the desired persona directly into pretraining data. Early results, but we're very excited. 🧵
The Persona Selection Model posits that post-training picks from personas that pretraining already fixed, it doesn't build new ones. So if your pretraining corpus is a mess, no amount of post-training will save you.

We append moral reflections grounded in a value constitution to 10% of pretraining docs.
Harmful doc → reflection says what's wrong and why. Benign doc → reflection notes what's fine.
The model learns to reason morally, not just pattern-match refusals.

Op de Westbank zijn LHBT-organisaties verboden. PA-politie mishandelt activisten. Veel LHBT’ers vluchten naar Israël 2/5

In Gaza is het verboten. Je krijgt officieel tot 10 jaar cel als homo, op basis van Brits mandaatrecht uit 1936, maar ach, Hamas being Hamas, die dachten: dat kan beter. De sharia ging voor. Een Hamas-commandant werd in 2016 geëxecuteerd wegens homoseksualiteit 3/5
What are users thinking during their interactions with LLMs?
We introduce ThoughtTrace — the first large-scale dataset that captures what users think during real-world human–AI conversations, not just what they type.
→ 10,174 thought annotations
→ 2,155 multi-turn conversations, 17,058 turns
→ 1,058 users
→ 20 LLMs
These thoughts improve user behavior prediction (+41.7%) and model alignment (+25.6%).
This opens a new paradigm of user-centric LLM research. Full information in the thread 🧶

Conversational AI has reached billions of users, yet every dataset captures only what people say, never what they think.
ThoughtTrace pairs each turn with the user’s own latent thought: 🟦reasons for sending a prompt 🟧 reactions to the assistant's response.

ThoughtTrace is long-horizon and diverse.
Median 8 turns/conv, while existing datasets like WildChat and LMSYS-Chat-1M skew shorter with 2 turns/conv. 7 broad domains, 36 subtopics, no single category dominating.
Real users, real tasks, real depth.

PFRDA just changed how NPS subscribers can use their retirement money.
No more being forced into annuity for your entire corpus at 60.
You can now draw a regular income from your NPS corpus while keeping it invested in the market.
Here's what changed 🧵
No more being forced into annuity for your entire corpus at 60.
You can now draw a regular income from your NPS corpus while keeping it invested in the market.
Here's what changed 🧵
Till now, NPS worked like this:
Suppose your corpus became ₹1 crore at retirement.
You could:
• Withdraw ₹60 lakh tax-free
• But ₹40 lakh compulsorily had to buy an annuity
That annuity would then pay fixed pension income for life.
And both options had serious problems 👇

The annuity problem first.
Annuity rates in India are low.
On a ₹40L purchase, you'd get roughly ₹18,000-22,000/month.
Once bought, the money is locked forever.
No growth. No flexibility.

Did Hochul really win New York?
New York's voter rolls contain nearly twice as many illegal duplicate registrations — skewed Democratic — as votes that separated Hochul from Zeldin in 2022.
Did the clones vote?
I tried to find out. Here's what I found. 🧵

I tried to find out. Here's what I found. 🧵
[2/3]
The rolls carry 2.2 million clone registrations — one in ten records. Illegal by definition. Same person, two or more different state IDs.
In the four suburban counties that decide every statewide race —
Nassau, Suffolk, Rockland, Westchester — the clones run 6–7 points more Democratic than the legitimate voters around them.
Statewide clone DEM surplus: 646,000 registrations.
Hochul's margin: 327,000 votes.
The surplus is 1.98× the margin. In the right direction.

You might say: check the voter history. See if the clones voted.
That field cannot be trusted.
In NYC alone, 254,713 people appear in county records as having voted in 2020 — but the identical state IDs show no vote in the statewide records. Same people. Opposite answer.
I wanted to know if clone records specifically had reliable voter history. The AG shut down the investigation before it was complete — then opened a criminal probe against the investigators under the Ku Klux Klan Act.
That retaliation is now the subject of a federal lawsuit. NY Citizens Audit v. Letitia James, Case 1:25-cv-01447, NDNY.
The records that would tell us whether the clones voted are broken. The investigation that was finding out was stopped. Draw your own conclusions.

I've got another timeline for your viewing pleasure.
I bring you The life of Saint Lous of France, in 50 acts.
And what a life it was: military commander, ascetic, judge, crusader, king, saint.
An unbelievable epic.

Your surgeon wants to put a joint replacement on the calendar.
Maybe not today. Maybe not this year. But you can see where this is heading.
Most people do nothing until surgery day arrives.
That's the worst thing you can do.

As a physical therapist I've rehabbed hundreds of joint replacement patients.
I know exactly what the ones who recovered fastest had in common and what the ones who struggled wished they'd done beforehand.
Here's everything they wish they knew sooner:
I know exactly what the ones who recovered fastest had in common and what the ones who struggled wished they'd done beforehand.
Here's everything they wish they knew sooner:
First, understand what's actually happening.
A deteriorating joint isn't just a structural problem. It's a lifestyle problem.
Inflammation, excess body weight, muscle weakness, and poor movement patterns all accelerate the breakdown.
Which means you have more control over this than your surgeon probably told you.

Names Muslims Should Avoid Giving Their Children
1. Names Exclusive to Allah (Without “Abd” Before Them)
Some Names belong only to Allah when used with their complete divine meaning.
Examples:
• Ar-Rahman
• Al-Ahad
• Malik-ul-Mulk
• Al-Khaliq
• Ar-Razzaq
Some Names belong only to Allah when used with their complete divine meaning.
Examples:

• Malik-ul-Mulk
• Al-Khaliq
• Ar-Razzaq
It is better to use:
• Abdur Rahman
• Abdul Khaliq
• Abdur Razzaq
Some names like Samee’ or Baseer may be permissible depending on the intention and usage, since humans can also have limited hearing and sight.
