Yesterday I tried out Mistral OCR and… wow. I didn’t know that OCR of PDFs with complex layouts, tables, images and everything is basically a solved problem now?

Here's the video of the physical damage to the substations in Venezuela, released by the energy ministry. It looks like whoever conducted the assault just unloaded over everything.

You see some effort on the part of Congress to assert itself in the realm of war.
But it failed predominantly on party lines
Republicans predominantly were supporting the president and whatever it happens to be that he would like to do.
