Love this and want more people to know about it.
Democrats once again getting distracted by morality with the boat strikes just like they did with food aid - yes cutting SNAP is morally reprehensible just like blowing up speedboats filled with men who are essentially hostages to the cartels - but the politically salient question is about Americans

The agricultural benefits of horses working vineyards are well known – but do we know how to care for them properly? Arnica Rowan suggests it's time for training and animal welfare protections. Below, one of Cheval des Vignes' horses at work.

This is why peer review and community oversight matters. Press releases are not science.
This is a mega-thread of all Microsoft problems related to topological qubits.

NOTE: I skip the numerous news reports and press releases, this thread is for serious _scientific_ and procedural materials

Marko Elez's reported resignation has interesting implications for Musk/DOGE control over Treasury payment data. Elez was one of only two DOGE affiliates permitted by court order to access the data, and DOJ claimed that the other (Tom Krause) had only supervised Elez's work.

Frustrated with Dems’ inaction in the face of the R’s assault on the govt? Consider this: America voted for this. We knew what would happen and we voted for it.

2024
Trump: 77.3M
Harris: 75M

2020:
Trump: 74.2M
Biden: 81.3M

That looks like 3.2M Americans who can’t say a damn thing about this.
