Pretty funny if the "no more foreign wars" president flipped an emerging truce into a regional conflagration with earth-shaking consequences.

The funniest part about this "refutation" is that it specifies that the iPhone needed to be hidden

A Russian tourist filmed inside North Korea at night with a hidden iPhone. It’s not the horrible nation in Western propaganda.

@yaling_jiang I am mainly surprised that people in a 5th tier city are willing to fork out Rmb 1500-4000 for a jacket. Avg monthly salary might be, what, 5-6k? Total audience of around 700k people in the urban core

Put another way, if AI is going to fully replace your job, there is nothing you can do about it except find a new job. But it is unlikely to fully replace most jobs. If it will become basic tool in your industry (more likely), then you're safe... So long as you're not a Luddite

2 maps from new @TradePartnersDC database showing the massive scale of potential tax hikes *BY STATE* of the new #tariffs on imports from #Canada, #China, and #Mexico. Imports into #Texas alone could face $1 billion in new taxes every week the tariffs remain in place.

DeepSeek attempting to translate a Vietnamese menu into English. Wondering if the engineers accidentally included a dataset of circa-2010 machine translated menus from China. Very much has that vibe
