UN official says Israel's "deliberate shooting" of the single building where a fertility clinic was "immediately reminded me of the Rwanda genocide where I was a judge and where they ripped the bellies of pregnant women, pulled out the fetuses because they wanted to kill off the entire Tutsi group."
Remarkably blunt words from United Nations officials who just declared Israel is committing genocide:

"Gaza will be with me for the rest of my life."

"Netanyahu, like everything he says, is simply lying."

"The treatment of children, the amputation without anesthetic…That will haunt me forever."

Be scared. Lord Mandelson is at the centre of a US-UK Tech deal ready to be signed next week.
 
MPs and the public know nothing about its contents, as the government has been even more secretive than Johnson’s on trade.
 
But we know enough to be very worried 🧵

A German teen told Meta's child safety researchers his under-10 little brother had been sexually propositioned multiple times on its VR platform.

Meta deleted the evidence.

New internal whistleblower docs indicate that was part of a broader cover-up: www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...
Meta suppressed research on child safety, employees say
The company’s lawyers intervened to shape research that might have shed light on risks in virtual reality, four current and former staffers have told Congress. Meta denies the allegations.

The Trump administration is working with private companies like Palantir to create detailed reports on every American, which could help them weaponize our personal information in their quest to deport immigrants and punish critics.

This is a huge threat to our constitutional rights.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but
2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but
3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So
4. Now the LLM code points to malware.
LLMs hallucinating nonexistent software packages with plausible names leads to a new malware vulnerability: "slopsquatting."
LLMs can't stop making up software dependencies and sabotaging everything

Not only are KKR, a US private equity firm, buying up our water infrastructure… they’re also now buying up our primary care infrastructure (hundreds of GP surgeries and health clinics).

Private equity = massively leveraged finances and asset stripping 😬😱
