J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver. Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître. Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France. La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

@grok who has killed more people? All civilians in America, or every government/military in the world combined?

EXCLUSIVE: California has created a shadow welfare system for illegal aliens. Free housing, cash, healthcare, food, phones, college tuition, even car insurance—costing taxpayers more than $10 billion per year. We went inside the system and exposed it all.

No surprise here!
BREAKING: I investigated SOMALI DAYCARES in the Seattle metro and uncovered over $5 MILLION of potential misuse of taxpayer funds. When I knocked on doors, no one answered. Neighbors told me they have never seen any kids! These individual daycares are receiving $40,000 - $70,000 per month.

"It's not her fault, she didn't know what she was doing." 🤔 That's a slippery slope.

It is a perfectly reasonable standard for a society to set that if you murder a child, your life is over. If you wanna let an insanity plea spare them from the death penalty? Fine. But they must die in prison. It’s not about punishment. It’s just protection. If you could snap and kill a kid, you simply can’t be trusted around people anymore. No matter what triggered it. This is in no way controversial. It’s not like these baby killers are out curing cancer or something. They can rot in jail and ask God for mercy. We have become way too tolerant of criminality and way too compassionate towards the dregs of society. We have to stop wasting our compassion on baby killers and drug zombies. We have fire victims in Altadena and the Palisades and Spokane and Paradise (still) who are completely screwed and we are using up all our energy and empathy on the worst people in society. Snap out of it, folks.

Lost my premium+ subscription. Google no longer allows payments via Visa gift cards. We are marching into a digital panopticon that our children might never escape. If someone 'gifts' me a premium+ subscription, send a bitcoin invoice and I'll send some extra SATs too!

This is a disaster. @DavidSacks
When the dust settles, we'll have to talk about the fact that not a single vulnerability was found by a US frontier model. Instead, we're spending $10k a day on open weights models like Kimi K3 and Qwen 3.8 to find vulnerabilities in Bitcoin infrastructure. It's a disaster.

The PRNG code should have never made it into production. Never ship dead code or testing code.

Je me suis longtemps passionné pour la psychologie, et une période m'obsède plus que toutes les autres. L'après-guerre. Le moment où des chercheurs se sont posé la question la plus dérangeante du siècle: comment l'Allemagne nazie avait-elle transformé des pères de famille ordinaires en bourreaux de camp? La réponse, ils ne l'ont pas trouvée chez des monstres. Ils l'ont trouvée chez des hommes parfaitement banals. Hannah Arendt a appelé ça la banalité du mal. L'historien Christopher Browning, en étudiant le bataillon de réserve 101 (des policiers d'âge mûr, des pères, des commerçants), a montré que ce ne sont pas des fanatiques qui ont fusillé des civils, mais des hommes normaux incapables de désobéir au cadre dominant. Puis vint Milgram. À Yale, environ deux tiers de gens ordinaires ont infligé ce qu'ils croyaient être des décharges mortelles, simplement parce qu'une autorité en blouse blanche le leur ordonnait. L'expérience de la prison de Stanford a montré la même chose sous un autre angle: donnez à quelqu'un un rôle et un cadre, et il s'y conformera jusqu'à l'inhumain. La leçon n'est pas allemande. Elle est humaine. Le mécanisme s'active dès qu'un cadre moral dominant fait craindre la sanction sociale plus que ne compte le témoignage de ses propres yeux. L'individu cesse de voir ce qu'il voit. Il voit ce que le cadre l'autorise à voir. Maintenant, regardez Southampton. Henry Nowak, 18 ans, poignardé, allongé au sol, répète aux policiers « j'ai été poignardé », « je ne peux plus respirer ». Réponse de l'officier: « I don't think you have, mate. » Pendant ce temps, son meurtrier retourne la situation d'une phrase: il aurait été victime d'une agression raciste. Quatre mots ont suffi pour déplacer le soupçon de l'agresseur vers la victime. Et l'officier a obéi. Pas à un ordre. À un cadre. Un cadre qui lui a appris, pendant des années, qu'une plainte pour racisme est l'accusation la plus dangereuse de sa carrière. Plus dangereuse, dans son réflexe conditionné, qu'un corps qui se vide de son sang devant lui. Exactement le mécanisme de Milgram, de Browning. Un homme normal qui cesse de croire ses propres yeux parce qu'un cadre moral lui a appris ce qu'il devait craindre. C'est précisément ça qui me terrifie. Souvenez-vous: le monde entier s'est agenouillé pour quatre mots, « I can't breathe ». Des entreprises, des gouvernements, des stades entiers. Henry a prononcé les mêmes mots, en train de mourir. Il n'y aura ni genou à terre, ni hashtag, ni minute de silence. Parce que sa mort ne sert pas le cadre. Elle le contredit. Et un système qui apprend à une société entière à faire passer l'accusation de racisme avant les faits, avant le corps, avant la vie, n'est pas une posture morale inoffensive. C'est une machine à fabriquer des hommes qui, face à un enfant en train de mourir, choisissent les menottes.
Henry Nowak, 18 ans, étudiant. Poignardé cinq fois. Allongé au sol, il répète aux policiers « j’ai été poignardé », « je ne peux plus respirer ». Réponse de l’officier: « I don’t think you have, mate. » On le menotte. Il meurt dans la nuit. Pourquoi? Parce que son meurtrier a dégainé l’arme absolue de notre époque: l’accusation de racisme. Et face à cette arme, des policiers conditionnés à craindre une plainte plus que la mort ont retourné les menottes contre la victime. Souvenez-vous. Le monde entier s’est agenouillé pour quatre mots: « I can’t breathe. » Des entreprises, des gouvernements, des stades entiers. Henry a prononcé exactement les mêmes mots, en train de mourir. Il n’y aura ni genou à terre, ni hashtag, ni minute de silence. Ce n’est pas une coïncidence, c’est un système. Une idéologie qui a enseigné à une société entière que l’accusation de racisme prime sur les faits, sur le corps, sur la vie elle-même. Le wokisme n’est pas une posture morale inoffensive. Ce soir-là, il a littéralement tenu la main qui a menotté un gosse en train de se vider de son sang.

A Seattle judge said we couldn't show the faces of the 33 Antifa & anti-Israel radicals who caused over $1 million in damage to the brand new engineering building at UW in May. So here are their faces & names: Tayler Hart Max Rulff Zachary Wallaced-Wells Jade Wu, Jessica Schutz Luisa Ortega Subdiaz Ginger Newberry Kimaya Mahajan Gina Liu Lea Keating Akira Junyaprusert Anna Hattle Julia Fraczek Cade Jackson Jonas Piper Ty Park Lucy Zern Tasbeet Iman Ricardo Colon-Galvez Roberta Collison Ella Tunduwani Zainab Chattha Riley Centerwall Catherine Brown Brett Anton Claire Berger Yasmin Ahmed Yafate Yared Geneveve Konijisky Finn Brown Bailey Keen Lucas Nichols-Mcauslan and Sam Sueoka. It was all a matter of public record long before the judge made the ruling. KOMO News made this handy collage. Please share

Last-minute negotiations between Banking Committee Republicans and Democrats this morning led to a compromise that removed language from the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) in Section 301 of the CLARITY Act. This is significant. The BRCA was the provision that explicitly protected noncustodial software developers from being classified as money transmitters. It was the direct response to the Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet prosecutions, the carve-out that Senators Grassley and Lummis negotiated to shield good-faith developers while preserving prosecutors' ability to go after those who knowingly facilitate crime. That language has now been stripped to secure bipartisan votes. DeFi advocates are already raising alarms, saying the move could gut critical protections for software developers as the bill moves to the full Senate. Despite the concession, Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) still did not vote to advance the bill, even after positively referencing the changes during the markup. Senator Bernie Moreno said during the hearing that there's "still work to be done on Section 301," signaling that negotiations on developer protections will continue as the Banking Committee and Agriculture Committee merge their texts ahead of a floor vote. The bill passed committee 15-9. But the developer protection language that made this bill matter to the people actually building in Bitcoin just got traded away for votes that didn't even materialize.

🚨🚨🚨There is a major flaw in the BRCA of the proposed Clarity Act: (d) CLARIFICATION OF TREATMENT explicitly states that the protections in subsection (c) DO NOT EXTEND to (or "modify the application of") 18 U.S.C. § 1960(b)(1)(C) for a specific subset of conduct by an "initial person." 18 U.S.C. § 1960 prohibits operating an unlicensed money transmitting business. Subsection (b)(1)(C) covers cases involving the transportation or transmission of funds that the defendant knows are: (1) Derived from a criminal offense (e.g., proceeds of fraud, drug trafficking, etc.); or (2) Intended to be used to promote or support unlawful activity (e.g., funding terrorism, further crimes). This is the exact 1960 subsection now being used to target developers. Every builder and developer knows their tool could be used for nefarious purposes. Under this law, that knowledge alone is enough to send you to prison for years. There is NO PROTECTION for developers in the Clarity Act while this carve out remains.
Buried on page 230 of the CLARITY Act is arguably the biggest win for the digital asset industry in the entire 309-page bill. Section 604: The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act. If you build open-source blockchain software and don't have unilateral control over users' funds, you are not a money transmitter. Not under FinCEN rules. Not under federal criminal law. Not under state registration requirements. Writing code ≠ money transmission. Building self-custody tools ≠ money transmission. Running node infrastructure ≠ money transmission. For years, developers have operated under the threat that publishing code could expose them to money transmission charges. Section 604 eliminates that ambiguity entirely. It establishes a clear, codified legal protection for the people who actually build the open-source infrastructure this industry runs on. Senate Banking markup is Thursday. Read the bill.
