If I were planning the city today, I'd move RFK and Capital One to the 230-acre stretch of crumbling federal buildings in SW to create an entertainment district.
And to go full Trump with it I'd move the Kennedy Center to Gallery Place to make a true theater district.

New: Andrew Feinberg, the reporter that Trump snapped at here, was slated to serve as the print pool reporter on Thursday.
Feinberg confirms to me that, without explanation, the White House told him today that he would no longer be the print pooler on Trump's Thursday trip.
Donald Trump lost his temper at a journalist during an Oval Office press conference, calling him a “sick person”.
The US president raged at The Independent’s Andrew Feinberg after he asked him questions about his golf course and his new tip-off hotline designed to expose fraudsters.

Today, @AustinSeningCo is excited to announce our $11 million seed round, bringing our total funding to $15 million. The round was led by Bow Capital, with participation from Bling Capital, Draper Associates, mark vc, GTMfund, Ensemble VC, and others.
Austin Sensing Company exists to build the world’s best sensors and sensor fusion. We’re a manufacturing-first company that measures success by the number of systems deployed in critical areas across the globe. We design for performance, low cost, and high-volume production, with systems as simple to use as your phone and easy to integrate into our customers’ vehicles, platforms, and networks.
Since launching this summer, we’ve deployed our systems with more than 40 police departments, fire departments, military units, universities, and professional sports teams. They’ve been deployed at wildfires, around airports, and with the U.S. military.
In addition to our funding news, we recently moved into a 20,000-square-foot factory in Austin, Texas, where we’ll develop, test, and manufacture our radar, RF, and acoustic sensors. Next year, we’ll begin high-volume production of our radar and acoustic systems, including critical components manufactured in-house.
If you want to work on extremely hard problems with exceptional people, we’re hiring across all parts of the business, including engineering, manufacturing, sales, and operations at our factory in Austin. Apply on our website or shoot me a note: [email protected].
The Trump administration’s embrace of legal liability to enforce AI safety sets the stage for conflicts over who foots the bill when models go rogue: the companies designing the systems or end users of the technology. From @eastland_maggie for @business bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

My obit on former Speaker Hastert done for Bloomberg, prior to moving to Newsday.... “Eventually, you get enough barnacles, and you sink,” National Journal quoted Hastert as saying in a 2014 interview. At that time, he might not have realized how far.
Hastert Dies

Donald Trump se reuniu na Casa Branca, com os diretores das principais empresas de inteligência artificial. Ele defendeu a autorregulação da tecnologia. A correspondente @Rkrahenbuhl perguntou ao presidente dos EUA sobre a responsabilidade por possíveis crimes cometidos por agentes de inteligência artificial. Trump, porém, interrompeu ela para anunciar a nova forma como essa tecnologia será chamada nos EUA.
