"Twenty’s contracts are a rare case of an AI offensive cyber company with VC backing landing Cyber Command work; typically cyber contracts have gone to either small bespoke companies or to the old guard of defense contracting like Booz Allen Hamilton or L3Harris."

The Pentagon Is Spending Millions On AI Hackers
The U.S. government has been contracting stealth startup Twenty, which is working on AI agents and automated hacking of foreign targets at massive scale.

Me cuesta entender lo que quiere decir este titular. ¿El hijo de Chadwick logró recaudar mas de 50 millones como consecuencia de la fiscalización vehicular que le hicieron? ¿Después de la fiscalización? O, lo mšs probable, solo intentaron poner un titular sensacionalista que llame la atención para capturas mas clicks. 🤷🏻‍♂️

2/2 Reflection on #citizenship:
I do not treat the concept of “#democracy" lightly. I was born into the aftermath of centuries of totalitarian oppression that ended suddenly, leaving the nascent Ukrainian state of the late 90s and early 2000s floundering in the turbulent whirlpool of hopes and fears felt by millions of people who were finally allowed to ponder: how to build a free democratic state in the place of Soviet and imperial ruins?
I was taught the words "democracy", "citizen", "freedom", "voting", “liberty" (and more) by people who, less than two decades prior, weren't allowed to leave the borders of their country. I was told about self-determination by people whose political choices were ridiculed, punished, and eviscerated form most of their lives. The duty of governing ourselves felt to us ephemeral - a nice fantasy, akin to a fairytale or a utopia from fictional works.
And then I saw those same people fight with their bodies and souls once the previously unfathomable democracy was threatened. Protests in 2004, then again in 2014, then the unthinkable war against foreign invasion in 2022. Democracy no longer felt abstract or silly. It became as tangible as saying "I love you".
I write of Ukraine as I reflect on becoming a citizen of another country because the history and values of my adopted United States feel as real as the skin on my legs, the significance of its legacy lays as heavy as the weight of my waist-long hair, and the desire to uphold the freedoms of its Constitution burns my throat as harshly as dehydration after a long day in the sun.
People have asked me why I even want to join this country, when the present moment is shrouded in impenetrable darkness. And I answer: because I've felt the warmth of a newly lit fire of freedom breaking through shadows that for centuries looked like solid walls. I have seen kindness, and solidarity heal the fear and hate of oppression. I've seen liberty emerge from nothing but the human soul.
I am not a religious person, but I have faith. Faith in the ideals at the foundation of the American project. Faint but powerful recognition that "we the people" now includes me.
I love #America. And I hope to keep loving my home for the rest of my life.

Millions of hectares are still being cut down every year. How can we protect global forests?
We are still logging and degrading global forests at terrifying speed. How can we slow this destruction, including in Australia?

Shelley Carroll also said that in her newsletter last week. People with 3 millions dollar home are not all "wealthy", they just happened to have inherited this kind of house.

This Saturday, millions of people are going to say no, and insist that every American has a right to dissent.
It’s going to be big
— there will be enormous rallies in major cities, and smaller but still meaningful ones in towns around the country.
There will be families, and dogs, and people in silly costumes.
They’re going to march, and stand together, and listen to speeches, and hold up signs
Trump and his allies will spin their absurd conspiracy theories,…

Ahead of No Kings Protest, Trump and GOP Try to Delegitimize All Dissent
There is no such thing as genuine progressive public opinion, and therefore mass and mobilized opposition to Trump doesn't count.

The Long Tail
Forget squeezing millions from a few megahits at the top of the charts. The future of entertainment is in the millions of niche markets at the shallow end of the bitstream.

Fifa kept the costs of 2026 World Cup tickets under wraps until the very moment of sale,
replacing the usual published table of price points with a digital lottery that decided who even got the chance to buy.
Millions spent hours staring at a queue screen as algorithms determined their place in line.
When access finally came for most, the lower-priced sections had already vanished,
many presumably hoovered up by bots and bulk-buyers (and that’s before Fifa quietly r…
