@PeterDiamandis But it's an ugly face - make it go away!

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iran has seemingly cracked the code on beating U.S. missile defenses.
U.S. Officials say their missiles are flying faster and pulling crazy maneuvers, making them tough to stop.
Plus, their aim is getting a lot better.
There’s a big suspicion that China or Russia is helping them out with the targeting tech.

CHIPOTLES ARE JUST DRIED JALAPEÑOS ??? 🤯

Breastfed children tend to score higher on IQ tests. A 2015 meta-analysis of 17 studies reported an average advantage of ~3 IQ points.

orangutans breastfeed for 6.5 years chimps 4 to 5 gorillas 3 to 4 humans before agriculture about 3 humans now: 12 weeks if they are lucky. formula if they are not i'm sure that's fine

Grok only knows the system designed in favor of vaccines. The VEARS database is massively under reported. Doctors are incentivized to give vaccines and not incentivized to report VEARS. VEARS is also a purposefully designed very cumbersome system that takes too much time to use. Pharmacies are incentivized to maximize vaccine sales. Congressman are lobbed by vaccine companies. The CDC is a revolving door of vaccine executives. If you ever bring up death rates, the conversation quickly shifts to cases. But the methodology used to define cases changes over time and is flawed for things like the PCR test. Vaccines are given credit for the eradication of diseases we no longer have while simultaneously given excuses for having no impact for the diseases we currently live with. Vaccine companies can’t even be sued. The entire vaccine industry and relationship with government law making officials and government agencies is a breeding ground for corruption if not the very definition of corruption.

@Grok, you are welcome to IDENTIFY the confounder that can NUMERICALLY explain the Hooker results. If you read the article you will note that it references the Grok analysis predicting that the ORs would all be <1. So how do you explain the study results? The two biggest confounders (HVE and depletion of susceptibles) all drive OR <1.

@elonmusk @engineers_feed All of my ice cubes are spheres. I always take the steepest route down.

@engineers_feed Kinetic energy being equal to half mass times velocity squared (the general case of the relativity equation) is an insanely big deal in everyday life.
That and the surface to volume ratio explain so much about our reality!

7 equations every engineer should understand, not just know:
1. F = ma (Newton's Second Law)
Force = mass × acceleration.
Everything that moves or is prevented from moving obeys this. Every structural load, every vehicle dynamics problem, every rocket trajectory.
2. σ = F/A (Stress)
Stress = force ÷ area.
How concentrated a force is. A small force on a tiny area can be catastrophic. A huge force spread across enough area is manageable. This is why needles pierce and snowshoes don't sink.
3. Q = mcΔT (Heat transfer, sensible heat)
Heat energy = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change.
How much energy it takes to heat or cool something. Every thermal system, every HVAC calculation, every cooling loop.
4. P = IV (Electrical power)
Power = current × voltage.
Why high-voltage transmission lines lose less energy than low-voltage ones. Why your phone charger gets warm. Every electrical system.
5. PV = nRT (Ideal Gas Law)
Pressure × volume = moles × gas constant × temperature.
How gases behave. Every engine, compressor, pneumatic system, and pressurised vessel.
6. ΔS ≥ 0 (Second Law of Thermodynamics)
Entropy of a closed system never decreases.
Why you can't build a perpetual motion machine. Why every energy conversion produces waste heat. Why engineering is fundamentally about managing irreversibility.
7. E = mc² (Mass-energy equivalence)
Energy = mass × speed of light².
The basis of nuclear engineering. Why a tiny amount of mass releases enormous energy. The equation that explains why uranium powers submarines for 25 years.
You don't need to solve these every day.
You need to feel them, to know when a system is violating one of them.
That's engineering intuition.

@MarioNawfal Yes, it doesn’t cost anything except all your private information.

🇨🇳 China just torched the U.S. AI lead in a single afternoon.
Moonshot AI, a little-known Beijing startup, dropped Kimi K3 on Thursday and it instantly kicked into the top tier of global models.
It beat Anthropic's Fable 5 and OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol on coding tests, then edged out Opus 4.8 on a broader ranking while costing 40% less.
Now the knockout blow. On July 27, Moonshot is giving Kimi away as open-weight, so any company or government on Earth can download it and run it on their own machines. No subscription, no permission slip.
For months U.S. labs slept fine telling themselves China was 6 to 12 months behind. That head start just evaporated.
And Kimi doesn't even need to be the best model to win. Near the top, 40% cheaper, and yours to keep is what most buyers actually want.
That's the nightmare in Silicon Valley. The trillion-dollar valuations and hundred-billion-dollar data centers all rest on one bet: U.S. stays ahead.
Kimi just kicked that out from under them.

RFK Jr. on his carnivore diet with ferments.
Steak and yogurt for breakfast, meat and sauerkraut/kimchi for the rest.
He lost 20 pounds of visceral fat in 30 days, regained it as muscle, and his atrial fibrillation disappeared.
A strict but effective approach.
What do you think, could a carnivore-style diet work for you?

@elonmusk @mweinbach Yes when you see lawsuits like this it’s typically stolen data from x employees

@PeterSchiff @Bitcoin_Teddy Dude literally got shot in the face and then stood up in defiance and kept going. Doesn’t quite seem like a money thing when people are trying to assassinate you.
English

@Bitcoin_Teddy Why make millions when you can make billions? Waiving his salary is just a distraction. It feeds the false narrative that Trump isn't in it for the money. It's publicity. It's all part of the show.

@spencerpratt Not merely “ok”.
Anyone who doesn’t love America is a traitor and beneath contempt.
Those who don’t love America, those who are disloyal should be exiled immediately.
