Since China offered a truce in the trade war last October following its threat to deprive the United States of rare-earth magnets,
the Trump administration has been happy to stop escalating.
After all, imports from China have been falling, down by 40% in the year to June, compared with the same period in 2024.
Best to declare victory and call it a day.
But the US hasn’t won this battle

New bike day. I'll be bringing this new 2024 Royal Enfield Super Meteor home this afternoon. I wanted the Classic 650, but we couldn't come to terms on financing. This saves on my monthly payment and cuts a year off the loan, and I've ridden these bikes and loved them.

As the UK government presses again for unwarranted access to private user data,
Apple has issued another complaint asking the country's independent judicial body to intervene.
In 2024, the UK reworked its laws to give it the authority to not only legally, but also secretly, demand Apple help it spy on iPhone users around the world.
Following US complaints, the UK backed down, only to try again in October 2025.
Now according to the Financial Times, Apple has file…

Today I found a open source thing for doing _exactly what I needed_ but then it didn't work and I inspected the source code and found that it uses services that are no longer online.
Turns out it was all vibe-coded and the LLM referenced services that are long dead presumably because the training data ends with 2024 or so and it just assumed the services are still up.
The person doing the vibe coding didn't bother to check. Now the code is up on Github and you get recommend to use it by search engines. Great stuff.
