If you’re looking for a good book to curl up with please check out my friend’s book, “Progress Notes”. It’s wonderfully written and full of heart. It’s about a young woman in residency to be a family physician, learning to love herself and her profession.

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

“.. Newsom is counting on the press corps to be .. oblivious to their double standard. .. He suggests: You notice my trolling? You notice it sounds like I’m a demented old man yelling at clouds? But not Trump? Why?”

Newsom shows how to get the media to see Trump’s weakness
