Real estate investors, both individual and institutional, bought one-third of all single-family residential properties sold in the second quarter of 2025.
That is an increase from 27% in the first quarter, and the highest percentage in the last five years, per CNBC

For folks doing academic faculty hiring —
What kind of platform does your university require you to use? Interfolio? Avature? Something else?
Are you able to batch-download the dossier PDFs, or do you pay for someone to hand-download them all?

A ton of attention over the years goes to plots comparing open to closed models.
The real trend that matters for AI impacts on society is the gap between closed frontier models and local consumer models.
Local models passing major milestones will have major repercussions.

Influenza A virus RNA found in airborne particles from pigs across a range of particle sizes. For reference a 10 micron particle takes ~8 minutes to settle to the ground from a height of 5 feet. That's plenty of time for it to drift around and be inhaled by others.
