There was a decision made by the security establishment not to allow reporting on Iranian missile hits in order to make it harder for the Iranians to do BDA.

I think it's quite rich all these people virtue signaling when: (1) Anthropic (and other labs) committed large scale theft of copyrighted materials to train their models. (2) Anthropic collects large swaths of data on its users (3) Dario seemed to have no issue working to help the CCP: https://x.com/ubuto23/status/2027578089371267201
Also, you must understand that if you support Anthropic, then you should be against Open Source models.
- we now see that "bidenomics" was a disaster after the media decided to stop lying about it and blaming the people for not believing "the stats". job numbers revised down massively after it was no longer viable to lie during the election.
- crime rates revised silently UP: https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2024/10/16/...
- apparently there was no need for a "bipartisan border bill" or for "congress to act" in order to shut down the border as encounters are down 90% now.
people have their panties in a bunch about tariffs, but I don't understand why reciprocal tariffs are so bad.
it appears that people here are happy for things to go south just so that they could shit on trump. how about having a bit more optimism for the future, even if the near term will be a bit shakey?
1. The browser needs to load the whole app before anything else could be done resulting in a slow first load.
2. WASM -> DOM manipulation is slow.
Advertisers have left as part of a concerted pressure campaign to bring back censorship. This effort has been coordinated by NGOs that ironically receive funding by the US Gov't as part of their mis/dis/malinformation playbook in order to keep in check populist political movements that may undermine the State Department's interests. As soon as Elon sued GARM, it broke apart, and I bet the Trump admin will target NewsGuard and kill it as well.
All that said, I see that I got downvoted by woke idiots even though I don't even watch Alex Jones.
The same people, using the same model, predicted a Biden victory in 2020 and 49/50 states correctly (they missed Georgia, which they predicted for Trump back then).
Their model uses the following fundamentals, for each state:
1. State deviation from national vote in t-1 election
2. Presidential approval rating in each state (estimated with Multilevel Regression and Post-stratification)
3. Economic conditions in each state (personal income deflated by CPI, unemployment rate, non-farm payroll employment, manufacturing hours by production workers)
4. Presidential and VP home-field advantage adjustments if they apply in the state
5. If VP runs, an adjustment to account for difference in approval rating between P and VP in question
2. are you able to reply to the email?
1. Can anyone recommend a good file layout/organization for a polyglot monorepo that contains Python, C++, and JS?
2. Does the build system need to be use something like Buck/Bazel?
3. How do you usually open your project in an IDE? do you open the root of the monorepo, or do you open each subproject separately?
