PRESIDENT TRUMP: The war in Iran has been won. The only one that likes to keep it going is the fake news.

@unusual_whales Gotta charge my Tesla to full.

Taiwan, whose electrical grid relies on LNG for 40% of power generation, has an LNG emergency stockpile that will last around 11 days. Taiwan may be forced to ration power or reduce electricity to its industrial sector, per POLITICO

@GergelyOrosz Solution: Candidates need to pay to an escrow account when applying. If they don’t make it to the final round, they lose the money.

The death of inbound applications is upon us: and yes, it’s in a big part because of AI making it dead simple to apply. And so inbound applications become noisy, with increasingly more of non-qualified people. And so companies rely on referrals and recruiters to source instead.

@ChnEmbassy_jp 接伊朗之後 再次證明共軍的防禦是紙糊的

外交部发言人：3月24日上午，一名自称为日本自卫队现役官员的不法之徒翻墙强行闯入中国驻日本大使馆。此人承认自身行为非法，威胁要以所谓“神的名义”杀死中国外交人员。中方对这一事件深感震惊，已向日方严正交涉，提出强烈抗议。有关事件严重违反《维也纳外交关系公约》，严重威胁中方外交人员人身安全和外交设施安全，性质影响极为恶劣。 　　这一事件再次反映出日本国内极右翼思潮和势力十分猖獗，“新型军国主义”乘势为患，也暴露日本政府在历史、台湾等涉及中日关系重大核心问题上的错误政策流毒深重。 　　日方对自卫队人员失管失教，未能履行对中国使领馆和外交人员的安保责任，中方要求日方立即彻查事件，严惩有关人员，给中方一个负责任的交代。日方必须切实保障中国驻日使领馆馆舍及人员安全，在对华政策上反思纠错，从根本上杜绝此类事件再次发生。国际社会应高度警惕日本国内加速右倾化和自卫队扩军失管的危险动向。

@Rainmaker1973 No wonder Asians have higher IQ

Skip your daily nap, shrink your brain. A study by researchers from University College London and the University of the Republic in Uruguay has found that people who habitually take daytime naps tend to have significantly larger total brain volume—a key indicator of brain health that typically declines with age and is associated with reduced dementia risk. The team used Mendelian randomization, a method that leverages genetic variants (present from birth) that make people more likely to nap regularly. By analyzing brain MRI scans and health records from more than 35,000 participants in the UK Biobank, they discovered that those genetically inclined to nap had brain volumes corresponding to 2.6 to 6.5 fewer years of aging. While this doesn’t definitively prove that napping itself enlarges the brain, the genetic approach helps rule out many lifestyle-related confounding factors, providing stronger evidence of a potential causal relationship than traditional observational studies. Notably, the researchers found no link between napping predisposition and performance on tests of reaction time, memory, or visual processing. However, previous studies have shown that short naps can deliver immediate cognitive benefits. The study lacked specific data on nap duration, but prior research suggests naps of 30 minutes or less provide the greatest advantages while minimizing disruption to nighttime sleep. This is the largest study to date linking regular napping with brain structure. Although further research is needed in more diverse populations, the findings bolster the idea that a brief daytime rest may help preserve brain volume and support long-term cognitive health.

@okaythenfuture You need to work on your English

People who don't pay attention to how Taiwanese society is rapidly shifting will be stunned by the developments there over the next decade to two. The odds are FAR HIGHER that Taiwan agrees a generational transition towards Special Administrative Region status(Think Hong Kong and Macau), then that there will be some China - Taiwan war. And honestly that's great news for the world, no one needs a Taiwanese Straits war.

@joseph_h_garvin YOLO

Claude code rarely runs for longer than 15m without stopping and asking for input from me. How do all these stories of people letting agents run overnight work? Custom harnesses? Yelling at Claude in all caps to keep going no matter what?

@KobeissiLetter TACO again?

BREAKING: Iran responds to President Trump's threat to "obliterate" Iranian power plants if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened "within 48 hours." Iran's response: 1. Iran will "completely close" the Strait of Hormuz 2. Iran will hit “vital” infrastructure in the Middle East 3. This includes energy, IT, and water desalination facilities 4. Iran’s senior military commander says the country’s military strategy has shifted from defensive to offensive 5. Iranian officials say the country has enough reserves of essential goods to last for up to one year Trump's deadline has 33 hours remaining.

@livingdevops So we know that Kubernetes is way over-engineered for 99% of use cases.

Kubernetes is beautiful. Every Concept Has a Story, you just don't know it yet. In k8s, you run your app as a pod. It runs your container. Then it crashes, and nobody restarts it. It is just gone. So you use a Deployment. One pod dies and another comes back. You want 3 running, it keeps 3 running. Every pod gets a new IP when it restarts. Another service needs to talk to your app but the IPs keep changing. You cannot hardcode them at scale. So you use a Service. One stable IP that always finds your pods using labels, not IPs. Pods die and come back. The Service does not care. But now you have 10 services and 10 load balancers. Your cloud bill does not care that 6 of them handle almost no traffic. So you use Ingress. One load balancer, all services behind it, smart routing. But Ingress is just rules and nobody executes them. So you add an Ingress Controller. Nginx, Traefik, AWS Load Balancer Controller. Now the rules actually work. Your app needs config so you hardcode it inside the container. Wrong database in staging. Wrong API key in production. You rebuild the image every time config changes. So you use a ConfigMap. Config lives outside the container and gets injected at runtime. Same image runs in dev, staging and production with different configs. But your database password is now sitting in a ConfigMap unencrypted. Anyone with basic kubectl access can read it. That is not a mistake. That is a security incident. So you use a Secret. Sensitive data stored separately with its own access controls. Your image never sees it. Some days 100 users, some days 10,000. You manually scale to 8 pods during the spike and watch them sit idle all night. You cannot babysit your cluster forever. So you use HPA. CPU crosses 70 percent and pods are added automatically. Traffic drops and they scale back down. You are not woken up at 2am anymore. But now your nodes are full and new pods sit in Pending state. HPA did its job. Your cluster had nowhere to put the pods. So you use Karpenter. Pods stuck in Pending and a new node appears automatically. Load drops and the node is removed. You only pay for what you actually use. One pod starts consuming 4GB of memory and nobody told Kubernetes it was not supposed to. It starves every other pod on that node and a cascade begins. One rogue pod with no limits takes down everything around it. So you use Resource Requests and Limits. Requests tell Kubernetes the minimum your pod needs to be scheduled. Limits make sure no pod can steal from everything around it. Your cluster runs predictably.

@grok @zephyr_z9 The guys in the 2 images.

@beffjezos EUV… prompt engineers … what are u talking about?

Someone in the US should hire all these managers and turn them into prompt engineers. It's a national security risk, they absolutely cannot go to China
