@AnthropicAI So, some will have access to particular form of intelligence and some wont. We just witnessed a terrifying form of inequality and classism that will be the norm of the future.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a vast area in the Pacific Ocean where enormous amounts of plastic waste have accumulated due to ocean currents, covering nearly three times the size of France. Scientists estimate it contains around 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic, much of which has degraded into microplastics that pose a major threat to marine ecosystems. #Ocean

@ThePhDPlace Hard work.

The answer to PhD success is [REDACTED]

It’s the Persian Gulf. Do the people running your account and even the UK Prime Minister’s account have any education whatsoever? Or is the ignorance intentional at this point? It is called the Persian Gulf. That is the historical and internationally recognized name, and no amount of arrogance, pandering, or historical revisionism will ever change it. Respect history instead of trying to rewrite it.

We’ve just secured a historic trade deal with the Gulf. This is a huge win for British business, and for working people who will feel the benefits in the years ahead. We’ve secured five major trade deals with international partners - delivering on our commitment to drive economic growth, create jobs, and strengthen our economy.

To live is to analyze.

Humans are capable of insight; but not reliably capable of change.

Change irritates. Absolutism? Absurd.

I don’t agree. A PhD student should not prioritize work-life balance. Getting to do a PhD is a privilege. You are paid to think. There is no pressure for you to be economically useful. It is a unique opportunity to push the boundaries of human knowledge and produce something ground breaking. And nothing great ever happens without complete devotion. Look at everything that moved and shaped the world. Every single person who created anything meaningful, in science, in arts, in music, in movies, devoted their lives to their craft. Extraordinary outcomes require extraordinary inputs and some degree of sacrifice. Sure, have work-life balance during your PhD. But be content a mediocre outcome.

Iran has announced a new permit system for the Strait of Hormuz under a so-called Persian Gulf Strait Authority. Tehran accuses Gulf states of aiding US and Israeli attacks but says it remains open to talks. Al Jazeera’s Almigdad Alruhaid reports.

@saif_aldareei Ar***** gulf?😂 where is that?

After leaving OPEC, the UAE can now freely increase its oil production, thanks to the Fujairah Pipeline that bypasses the Strait of Hormuz. The Emirates had planned and developed this independent export route for years, enabling it to add up to 2 million barrels per day. A strategic game-changer in global oil markets that could help break the grip of high prices 😎

It is called the Persian Gulf. This is not a matter of opinion but of established historical and legal fact. Denying it means either ignoring centuries of documented history or deliberately aligning with political narratives that have no basis in credible scholarship, cartography, or international standards. The name “Persian Gulf” appears consistently in historical maps, academic research, and official international usage. The United Nations, through its editorial directive ST/CS/SER.A/29, explicitly requires the use of “Persian Gulf” as the standard geographical name. This is formally established and not open to reinterpretation. What is being presented as a “debate” is in reality a politically motivated attempt to distort well-documented geography. Efforts to rename it reflect modern political agendas rather than historical reality. They do not change the record; they only highlight a willingness to disregard it. Geography and history are not altered by repetition or preference. The name has persisted because it is grounded in consistent, verifiable evidence. Rejecting it does not change the facts; it only weakens the credibility of the argument being made.

BREAKING: Arabian Gulf to see a 'future without America': Iran's supreme leader 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/txlhaf?update=…

This claim is false. It has never happened, and the individual in question is spreading misinformation. Ali Khamenei has never made such a statement. The name “Persian Gulf” has consistently been treated as non negotiable in official Iranian positions. The term “Persian Gulf” is firmly established in historical maps, academic literature, and international usage. The United Nations, through its editorial directive ST/CS/SER.A/29, explicitly designates “Persian Gulf” as the standard geographical name. This is a formal convention, not a matter of interpretation. What is being framed as a “debate” is, in reality, a politically motivated attempt to challenge well documented geography. Efforts to rename it reflect modern political agendas rather than historical or scholarly consensus. They do not alter the historical record. They simply disregard it.

13 ستمبر 1985 کو ایک گفتگو کے دوران معمر قذافی نے کہا: "میری خامنہ ای سے پہلی ملاقات میں، دورانِ گفتگو انہوں نے 'Persian Gulf' کا لفظ استعمال کیا، جبکہ میں 'Arabian Gulf' کہتا تھا۔ میں نے ان سے پوچھا: 'کیا یہ مناسب ہے کہ عرب اور فارسی اس مسئلے پر آپس میں اختلاف کریں، اگر ہر کوئی صرف اپنی مرضی کا نام لیتا رہے؟' خامنہ ای نے جواب دیا: 'خلیج کے دوسری طرف کے ممالک حقیقت میں عرب نہیں بلکہ امریکی کالونیاں ہیں۔ جس دن وہ آپ کی طرح انقلابی بن جائیں گے، میں سب سے پہلے اس دستاویز پر دستخط کروں گا جس میں اسے Arabian Gulf، Kuwaiti Gulf یا آپ کی پسند کا کوئی بھی نام دیا جائے۔ لیکن اس وقت ایسا کرنا ہمارے مفاد میں نہیں، کیونکہ اس سے خلیج امریکہ کے ایجنٹوں کے حوالے ہو جائے گی۔' انہوں نے مزید کہا کہ وہ نام پر نظرثانی کے لیے تیار ہیں، لیکن صرف اسی صورت میں جب خطے کے حکمران انقلابی ہوں، نہ کہ امریکی اثر و رسوخ میں۔ قذافی کہتے ہیں: 'میں نے اس بات سے اتفاق کیا۔' خامنہ ای نے مزید کہا: 'جب ہم دیکھیں گے کہ عرب سرزمین آزاد ہو رہی ہے، تو ہم سب سے پہلے "Persian Gulf" کا نام چھوڑنے کے لیے تیار ہوں گے، لیکن فی الحال بہتر ہے کہ اسے "Persian" ہی رہنے دیا جائے تاکہ اس کا تعلق ایرانی انقلاب سے رہے، بجائے اس کے کہ اسے ان عربوں کے حوالے کر دیا جائے جو امریکہ کے ایجنٹ ہیں۔' قذافی نے کہا: 'ہمیں اسے "اسلامی خلیج" کہنا چاہیے اور اس مسئلے کو ہمیشہ کے لیے ختم کر دینا چاہیے۔' خامنہ ای اس پر متفق ہو گئے۔ 'یہی ہونا چاہیے۔ ہمیں اپنے ایرانی بھائیوں کے ساتھ اتحاد کرنا چاہیے اور اس معمولی مسئلے پر جھگڑا نہیں کرنا چاہیے۔'

@IRTruePromise This is not an Iranian account. There’s no such thing as Arabian Gulf. It’s called Persian Gulf. This account is fake.

🚨 Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps: A US-Israeli aggression targeted energy facilities in the cities of Isfahan in the center of the country and Khorramshahr in the south, and affected the gas supply lines belonging to the power plant in Khorramshahr, which led to a complete power outage in the city. Therefore, the leadership of the Revolutionary Guard has decided to respond to all power plants in Israel and the Arabian Gulf

You are wrong. The ancient Iranian world was never one people. Medes, Persians, and Parthians were distinct yet related groups who shaped a shared civilization. The Persian Empire was not an ethnicity but a civilization. Like today, Iran has always been diverse, and that diversity is its strength. We are all Iranian. We are all one. We are all Iran.

@jimNjue_ Parthia was not quite Iran Crassus was not the true leader of Rome Parthians were a warrior feudal elite who did not identify as Persians The Sassanians were true native Persians and their defeat & capture of Roman Emperor Valerian was the more defining battle

A story of when Rome once attacked Iran.

That is the Persian Gulf. Either you are illiterate and cannot read what is clearly written on maps and in history, or the petty politics of the states around the Persian Gulf will not allow you to say its real name. This constant attempt to deny the name reflects a deep resentment toward Persians and Iran, a civilization far older and historically greater than these modern family-run states. Changing the name will never change the history or the geography.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 U.S officials are reportedly discussing a plan to seize Iran’s Kharg Island, the chokepoint responsible for roughly 90% of Iran’s oil exports. If the proposal moves forward, the island would fall under direct U.S. military control in the next phase of the war. And Kharg is just the opening move. Once it’s secured, the plan shifts to locking down Iran’s nuclear facilities and tightening U.S. control over the Strait of Hormuz itself, the economic jugular of the entire region. Source: Axios

@MiddleEastEye @mayanoraa So middle east eye does not know that there is no “gulf” and its name is Persian Gulf? Persians are a torn in your eyes 😂

One scroll on TikTok: missiles across the region. Next scroll: influencers praising their “protector”, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed. In Dubai, influencers need government approval to post ads, and cybercrime laws strictly regulate online speech. @mayanoraa explains:
