@KimbodieG @HHHTheGame3 @joeroganhq And you know fuck all about cancer. Better thought a fool than to open your mouth and confirm it.

@HHHTheGame3 @joeroganhq Sorry if I offended you, Pollyanna. But to be fair, I’m not a Protestant. Blessings!

@brianmaierhofer We eat salt and it has a more profound impact on our brains than any ethnogenic plant. Maybe those plants should just be a regular part of our diets without the woo-woo background noise.

The hedgemon is the hedgemon bc they can destroy uou any time they want if they choose to. You can outlive one hedgemon until another takes its place. Sovereignty is always limited and controlled by superior force. Name one time when that is not true? And the only situation worse than a hedgemon is no hedgemon.
English

@vuduvations @satyanadella Hedgemons have been setting the terms for sovereignty for all of human history. This is no different.
English

Agree the loop is the IP.
One snag: sovereignty you can be granted isn't sovereignty.
A "frontier ecosystem" where every company gets to own its learning loop on the 'platform' that sets the terms, the vocabulary, and the substrate is still tenancy with better PR.
Real control is the part that needs none of your permission.

@FranckMont94683 @grok what is she talking about sabalenka correcting Osaka
English

🎾 Merci à Aryna Sabalenka d'avoir corrigée Naomi Osaka.
Celle qui dit ne pas aimer avoir l'attention sur elle, mais entre sur un court de tennis, avec une tenue assez kitch et ridicule pour être dans des clips de Sheila des années 80 !
Celle qui se justifie de faire la gueule par timidité, mais qui ne l'est plus pour poser en maillot de bain pour de l'argent !
Celle qui se permet de faire une soirée en excluant les blancs. (ce qui s'appelle de la discrimination et du racisme).
Allez Osaka, va faire ton cirque ailleurs. ➡️

@MichaelAlbertMD What’s odd is that you don’t think you are the system but apart from it. That’s a bit outlandish.
English

Promise me you will never go to a physician again for any aspect of your health, and I'll take your comments seriously. Who wants to sign this type of contract with me? Anyone?
Tom DeLay@TomDeLaySA
Try a simple thought experiment - completely eliminate the traditional physician from the equation and see what you get. This could be a transformation that is physician led but it is a rarity (never) that a guild sinks their heart and soul into dismantling their monopoly on services.
English

I guess you don’t know the meaning of a thought experiment or know the history of guilds/monopolies. And yes I would be happy to never see a doctor again if we build something better. It’s your assumption that whatever that looks like needs to be built by you. But you don’t explain why that is a true statement. Your challenge is basically a non-sequitur.
English

Refusing to participate in the insurance racket is a start. The healthcare system would literally not function without physicians. If physicians collectively chose a different path, the system would have to adapt.
To act as though we are powerless—or incapable of driving meaningful change—is misguided. Physicians remain one of the few groups with the leverage to fundamentally reshape healthcare.
Tom DeLay@TomDeLaySA
@MichaelAlbertMD You are part and parcel - thoroughly embedded in the system. And you don’t scale. So how does that uniquely position you to be the agent of change? Patient centric makes sense of course but I can’t see how physician centric necessarily makes that a reality.

English

Change cannot—and will not—come from within the system.
Physicians have to lead this movement, and that means being willing to walk away from systems, incentives, and structures that no longer serve patients.
Too much of modern healthcare is optimized for institutional preservation rather than human health. Real reform will not come from another committee, administrative layer, or corporate initiative. It will come from clinicians willing to challenge the status quo and build something better.
Physician leadership is not optional—it is a prerequisite for meaningful healthcare reform.

@stephenrodrick @RollingStone You need to get an editor. That was a meandering poorly written article. As for Pratt, you act like someone has to fit your profile of what a politician should look like. You've missed the point of democracy and also seem pretty naive about who is willing to run for office.

I wrote this one...@RollingStone
"Spencer Pratt is a quintessential American. His entire life has been fueled by an unfathomable level of self-confidence, despite a data set that suggests he may not be good at anything."

@pati_marins64 @EIFY Your use of English makes it obvious you are either a bot or possibly Chinese. The word choices you’re making are the tell.
English

@EIFY It is being refined and slowly implemented.
Engines take a lot of time to end the test phase.
Even after years a reallly small percent of Chinese jets are using WS-15
English

China Is Developing 8 Aviation Engines Simultaneously and Could Become a Pioneer in New Technologies in the Field
The Chinese are running simultaneous flight tests on four military engines: the WS-15, WS-19, WS-20, and WS-21. The WS-15 faced delays and is still being gradually integrated into the J-20, the vast majority of the fleet still relies on the WS-10C.
The WS-19 and WS-21 are undergoing tests on the J-35A and J-35, while the WS-20 is already equipping Y-20 freighters during the testing phase.
In civil aviation, they’re also advancing four engines in parallel: the CJ-1000A, which has been in flight testing and refinement since 2023; the CJ-2000, developed in partnership with Russia; the CJ-500, tailored for regional jets; and the SF-A, focused on low emissions.
All these engines will soon receive upgrades with cutting-edge technologies like superalloys, self-cooling turbine blades, and advanced composites.
These superalloys are made from metals such as nickel and cobalt, plus rare elements (e.g., hafnium, rhenium), engineered to withstand extreme temperatures.
The key breakthrough is a cooling method three times faster than conventional ones, which refines the alloy’s microstructure, reduces defects like irregular grains, and boosts thermal resistance.
This allows components to operate above 1,500°C without rapid degradation.
It cuts wear, extending turbine life by 20-30%, lowering maintenance costs and increasing operational availability.
Meanwhile, self-cooling turbine blades and advanced composites rely on manufacturing techniques that incorporate internal cooling channels and lightweight materials l, reducing weight, improving aerodynamics, and delivering more thrust without compromising durability.
These technologies will significantly enhance Chinese engines, but there’s more to it. China is also secretly developing engines for its sixth-generation fighters, which, beyond the above innovations will incorporate thermal barrier coatings revealed in October 2025.
These coatings can handle temperatures up to 1,000°C, protecting turbine components from oxidation and erosion. They complement the superalloys, enabling operation in even hotter conditions and improving fuel efficiency by 10-15%.
And adaptive cycle engines: in November 2025, China demonstrated a design that switches between high-thrust mode (for combat) and high-efficiency mode (for cruising), optimizing both fuel consumption and performance. This is a clear evolution beyond traditional turbofans.
The Chinese are investing heavily to eliminate dependence on Western and Russian technology while positioning themselves as future exporters of aviation engines.
This remains one of the longest challenges ahead for China: despite rapid progress on multiple models, a lengthy period of maturation and proven reliability still lies in wait.
Even Western engines that have been flying for decades continue to undergo refinements. It’s a slow, deliberate process.

@nithyavraman Accountability? Then you should resign now. And the comment about Pratt being fascist - you are the problem in our politics.

I'm ready to lead this city with urgency, accountability, and ambition equal to the moment. I hope you'll join me.

@DeeManThe1st @Hero_OfThe_Day I watched it in stop motion and it is very clear he didn’t touch him. Are you Shae’s mom?

@Timesofiraan Oil markets react to global tensions, but saying Trump’s Iran policy ‘pays Russia’s debt’ oversimplifies it. Russia benefits from higher prices, yes, but that’s market dynamics, not a direct transfer of U.S. policy into Russian coffers.
