Nice! Thanks!

ETA: No mention of drones coming out of a grain car. That’s the part I found particularly interesting.

I haven’t seen any news outlets mention this, yet. Seems like they should have by now.

The SBU said the operation "lasted for several months, with agents mining the “supports of this illegal construction.”

“And today, without inflicting any civilian casualties, the first explosive was activated at 4:44 a.m.,” the SBU said.

Emphasis mine. Genuinely curious how many more there are and what they’re waiting for.

I feel like this is really poor OPSEC to be posting this. Remember that when you share info with the world, you’re sharing it with the Russians.

I don’t think I’ll ever understand why they project this kind of information. Keep your mouth shut and deliver them in secret. Let the Russians find out about it when they’re looking at the Kerch bridge swimming in the water.

Waste of a perfectly good pillow case. 🤨

Everyone should be aware that OP is clearly using AI to summarize the articles they’re posting, and the summaries are garbage. This is the second one I’m calling out. Here’s the first.

First sentence of summary;

The EU suspended its planned tariffs on €20.9 billion in U.S. goods after Trump paused his new 10% tariff on all EU imports, opting for a 90-day truce.

In the actual article.

Trump had hit the 27-nation bloc with a 20 percent duty on all goods. Under pressure as financial markets melted down, he halved the levy to 10 percent — the baseline he has set in his bid to bring investment and industrial jobs lost to globalization back home.

In short, summary says 10% tarrif was paused. This is completely wrong. The 20% tarrif was paused and reduced to the 10% baseline he set for everyone (which is still extremely high).

OP, if you’re not going to proofread AI generated summaries for accuracy, don’t use them.

Has anyone checked if she’s an AI? That’s the kind of thing an AI would screw up.

China raised tariffs to 125% on US goods

That’s what Beijing is allegedly responding to in that sentence. There’s no alternative way to interpret it.

No, that’s not clumsy wording. It’s nonsense. Beijing isn’t going to “respond in kind” to China raising tariffs. As you correctly stated, Beijing is China. What if it said, “The United States raised tariffs to ___% on Chinese goods, with Washington DC responding in kind.”? It’s exactly the same nonsense.

China raised tariffs to 125% on US goods, with Beijing responding in kind.

Summary written by AI.

Edit: For those not seeing it, in this context, Beijing is China. So, China responded to China? That’s the kind of nonsense an AI writes, and that sentence is nowhere to be found in the original article. Hence, “Summary written by AI.”

I’ll give you one guess when he and his cronies are buying and selling stocks.

Whenever the topic comes up with leadership, I try to explain it in financial terms.

Tech debt is just like financial debt. There are times when its appropriate and necessary to take on some debt. But debt accumulates interest charges. If we just keep building up more debt without ever paying it down, it’ll eventually bankrupt the company.

The engineering team doesn’t always know when the finance team is accumulating debt or paying it back, but we trust that they are doing so appropriately.

You don’t always know when the engineering team is accumulating or paying off debt, but you need to trust that when we say we need time to to pay down tech debt, we’re serious. We’ll all be out of a job if we don’t.

They don’t usually like to hear it, but when put in those terms, they don’t have an argument against it. I’m sure if we could provide a statement showing we had $478,562.78 in tech debt at 4.75%, they’d be more understanding about paying it down.

dubious horseshit

dubious; adj. open to doubt or suspicion

There’s no doubt or suspicion.

Many Cybertruck owners reported trying to trade-in the truck for a new vehicle

It only came out in November 2023! They’re already trying to trade it in? Seems like that’s it’s own sign of problems.

Some owners who have had their trucks in service for extended periods of time

NOVEMBER 2023!!! Nobody has had a one of these dumpsters for an extended period of time!

Yeah, zooming and planning around works fine for me on android.

Are we great again, yet?

This is the correct response.

ETA: and I strongly suspect this will happen somehow. So, his birthday is June 14th, so those who can should start making plans to be in DC around then (actual day of parade may be different, so don’t lock in specific dates until there’s more info).

Meanwhile, get ready for your local May 1st protests. (More locations will be certainly be added to that map as the day gets closer).

And until then, there are lots more opportunities to get out and protest.

I bet her son got a hold of her unlocked phone and posted that himself.
