67 minutes, 44 seconds. Hikaru's 13th move today was the second-longest move in Candidates history after Grischuk's 72 minute think in 2021. ⏰






It’s going unnoticed because so much other news is happening, but the war drums are beating again in D.C. The warmongers worry this is their last chance to get the white whale they’ve been chasing for thirty years, an all-out regime change war against Iran. A new Middle East war would be a catastrophic mistake. Our military stockpiles are depleted from three years of backing Ukraine. Our effort to reshore manufacturing has only just begun and will take years to bear fruit. War would worsen our already immense deficit and national debt. Iran is larger than Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan combined. A war would not be easy and could easily become a calamity. Thanks to President Trump’s restraint during his first term, America has a golden opportunity to pull away from Middle East quagmires for good. We shouldn’t throw that opportunity away so that sone D.C. has-beens can feel tough by sending young Americans to die yet again.














This clip is from a 2017 60 Minutes Australia interview with Elon Musk, during the height of South Australia’s energy crisis. South Australia had suffered major statewide blackouts in 2016–2017 due to storms, grid instability, and reliance on renewables without sufficient storage. Electricity prices skyrocketed, creating “energy poverty” many vulnerable people were skipping meals or going without essentials to afford power bills. After a famous Twitter exchange where Australian tech billionaire Mike Cannon Brookes challenged Elon to fix the issue, Tesla committed to building the world’s largest lithium-ion battery (100 MW/129 MWh Hornsdale Power Reserve) in 100 days or it’d be free. In the interview, reporter Liz Hayes describes how bad the situation was for everyday Australians. Elon looks shocked, gets visibly emotional (voice cracks, pauses to compose himself, eyes appear teary), and responds: “I didn’t expect that… we’ll work harder.” Tesla delivered the battery ahead of schedule in late 2017. It revolutionized grid stability, responded to outages in milliseconds, and has saved Australians hundreds of millions in energy costs while proving big batteries work at scale.
