acts of banditry carried out by Polish civilians and armed groups. These crimes reflected deep-rooted antisemitism that persisted even after the Holocaust ended.

The most notorious of these attacks was the Kielce pogrom of July 1946, when a mob murdered 42 Jews who had survived Nazi persecution.

As I understand, Morin is a very common last name in Enoch parts, but hopefully MP Billy Morin will advise if his council was a family affair or not, when he and his Father was Chief?

Ehud Barak's sent email 119 (Hyperion) was an email forwarded to his wife; it was from Dr. Andor Nagy - TLV, and copied to Moran Sinay, and concerns Hungary's Central Bank, its employees, and Victor Orban:
I'm not sure which agency of Ehud Barak's they mean when they say this line:
"...hey were unfortunately unable to accept the conditions of your agency in the US."
In any case, it's an intriguing email--instead of giving a lecture, EB would be speaking directly to the bank.

How Do Brain Functions Differ in Patients With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)?
ASD involves complex neurobiological shifts across distinct functional domains.
While once viewed as a simple behavioural โdeficit,โ studies revealed a pattern of atypical connectivity and structural organisation that alters how the brain processes social and sensory data.
Meaning, the ASD brain follows a unique computational logic rather than a "broken" one.
Hereโs a breakdown of the neurobiological substrate of ASD: ๐๐งต

Hereโs a breakdown of the neurobiological substrate of ASD: ๐๐งต
The Connectivity Paradox
ASD is characterised by a "disconnection syndrome" in how the brain organises information.ย
This stems from an imbalance where local neural circuits are over-developed at the expense of global integration.
โข Long-range under-connectivity: Reduced communication between the frontal and posterior regions.
โข Local over-connectivity: Excessive neural density in sensory zones.
This explains why patients excel at details but struggle with global behavioural integration.

This explains why patients excel at details but struggle with global behavioural integration.
The Salience Network (SN)
In ASD, the SNโthe brain's "toggle" between internal thought and external stimuliโshows atypical functional organisation.
Hyper-connectivity here makes it difficult to filter "noise" from "signal," leading to:
โข Chronic sensory overload
โข Difficulty prioritising social infoย
โข Intense "bottom-up" attention
This hyper-sensitivity creates a state where the brain cannot optimise attention, as it is biologically compelled to treat every stimulus as a high-priority alarm.

There's an AI coding approach that lets you run seriously long-running AI agents (hours, days) that ship code while you sleep. I've tried it, and I'm not going back.
It's the Ralph Wiggum approach. Here it is in a nutshell:
Run a coding agent with a clean slate, again and again until a stop condition is met.
The Bash Script
Running ralph involves a single bash script.
1. Set up a bash for loop that runs a set number of times, let's say 10. You choose a finite number to prevent the agent running infinitely.
2. Inside the loop, you get the coding agent (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex etc) to work on a single feature in the repo until that single feature is done. You prompt it to say "if, after implementing, there is no further work to be done, reply withCOMPLETE .
3. Check forCOMPLETE inside the loop and exit early if it exists.
The Stop Condition
How does the LLM know when to emitCOMPLETE ? There are multiple approaches:
- Raw Prompting: Just pass a very clear stop condition to the prompt inside the bash loop. "The job is complete when X conditions are met"
- TODO list: Give the agent a TODO list to complete
- PRD: My preferred approach, explained below
Progress Reports
In your prompt, you MUST tell the agent to commit its work, and append its progress to a local progress.txt file.
Committing its work allows future agents to navigate what was done via the git history.
The progress.txt is a standard long-running agent practice. Feed it in to the agent via the prompt, and use the verb 'append' to make sure it doesn't update previous entries.
Keep CI Green
Each commit MUST pass all tests and types. This means you have to prompt the agent to run typechecks and tests on each commit.
If you don't do this, you're hamstringing future agent runs with bad code, and they'll need to bisect to find bugs. Super nasty.
This means that building really healthy feedback loops is CRITICAL to Ralph's success.
The PRD
Two problems immediately emerge with Ralph.
The first is that the agent picks tasks which are too large. They don't scope the amount of work correctly and they try things which are too ambitious. This means they run out of context window and just end up failing.
The second is that the agent doesn't know when to stop.
To solve this, I use a PRD-based approach that formalizes the work I want Ralph to complete in a list of user stories.
It's a mix of a PRD and a TODO-list, where the PRD is a JSON file of user stories with 'passes: false'.
I then prompt the agent to pick the highest priority feature, and ONLY work on that feature. It then updates the passing status of the relevant PRD item at the end.
This scopes it down extremely effectively, meaning it utilizes only a small part of its context window, and thus isn't swamped by context rot.
Summary
- Bash script
- JSON-based PRD
- progress.txt
- Keep CI green
- Feedback loops
You'll have an AI coding setup that can ship while you kip.

Forgot to mention above. The PRD makes the stop condition trivial. Just say "when all test cases in the PRD pass, emit <promise>COMPLETE</promise>".
quick explainer re: some of the most important physical components & what actually does what in a(n ethernet) switch:
ASIC:
- looks at frames
- decides where they go
- very smart, very dry, does not touch wires
PHY:
- negotiates link speed
- handles encoding / signaling
- pushes electrons (or photons), meaning bits
without the PHY, an ASIC is just thinking thoughts with nowhere to send em
MII / GMII / SGMII / RGMII:
- the private lil interface between the ASICโs MAC & the PHY
- sits inside the box, passing bits back & forth
tl;dr
ASIC = brain thinking
PHY = mouth speaking (although it does have logic of its own in there too)
MII variants = internal nervous system
Ethernet is teamwork actually

caveat for those who want to get into โwell, actuallyโsโthe MII is technically not like, a physical chip u can see on the board. the variants of MII are basically interface standards for signaling/clock frequencies.
BUT sometimes u can open up a switch & physically see traces on the board between the ASIC & PHY. thatโs where your MII logic is applied :)

another caveat bc im sure someone is gonna ding me for this too: yes, an ASIC doesnโt need an ethernet PHY to talk to another component thats, say, on the same board. you could just have comms via MII between them or whatever. PHY is generally used to get stuff onto the wire/in the air as RF/whatever

Roughly three quarters of Venezuelaโs oil reserves are extra-heavy crude from the Orinoco Belt, which can only be processed in highly specialized refineries.
This crude has very low API gravity, high sulfur and metal content, and extreme viscosity.
