CrowdStrike Falcon is endpoint monitoring software. (doesnât just protect from malicious code, also tracks assets). Reminder: Any time you have auto-update enabled for anything, you have installed a free backdoor
The UBI experiment actually showed a lot of major upsides! Increased entrepreneurship, people held out longer for better jobs (which contributed to the lower employment number!), young people got more edu and single parents did more child raising, people were able to leave abusive relationships. Looking at naive averages isnât that useful. (also AskWhoCastsAI is one of my fav podcasts)
The World Central Kitchen fuckup has been investigated. âAn Australian review into the deaths said the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) decided to launch missiles at the convoy after mistakenly believing it was being hijacked by Hamasâ
Leaked Zoom recording of white house staff & DNC discussing how to best censor reports of Bidenâs mental decline. Most interesting part is how polite the threats are. Stuff like âyou say youâre reducing disinformation, but it looks like this disinformation about Bidenâs decline is still up on facebook. Iâm not sure thatâs what reduction looks likeâ.

Russian prisoner exchange. The tween & teen kids of a spy couple discover theyâre Russian on the flight over to Russia.
MegaQuake advisory in Japan
In Bangladesh a government job quota system favoring the in-group sparked weeks of deadly riots (after over a decade of ratcheting authoritarianism and economic issues).
