So on the face of it:
- Today’s air traffic outage was neither AI-enabled nor a hack
- This week’s Microsoft outage was neither AI-enabled nor a hack
Sometimes vital infrastructure is janky and fragile for non-AI and non-hacker reasons.
NEW: Multiple sources tell @CBSNews that an update to the private communications network that connects America's air traffic control system caused the system to reboot.
When the FAA's telecommunication infrastructure rebooted, it crashed, causing the communications outage.
The system is operated by L3Harris.

Average voter here
All I want is 0% interest rates forever with no inflation
Also I want manufacturing jobs back but I also don't want any factories built
Oh and I want housing prices to go down, while they also keep their value at the same time
Is that too much to ask?!
Nobody likes to admit to uncertainty but I think it’s genuinely unclear why people feel the current situation is worse than the 1970s economy.

i wonder if part of this story is that trump, because of his personal experience, severely discounts the intelligence community telling him that someone in his circle is compromised by a foreign adversary...
If the NYT/WSJ timelines are correct …
When Jensen Huang joined the president on Air Force One to go to China in 2025 and attended the White House state dinner with Chinese leader Xi Jinping in September, Trump had already been told that Huang was sleeping with a suspected Chinese spy, and his administration was already investigating an illegal relationship between the spy’s company and the Chinese Communist Party

I would never ever ever purchase an airline ticket on my phone. You must use your laptop for that. Must.

unironically true … i’m afraid none of you know what a data center actually is
The ultimate honeypot America has to offer is a US passport and suburban home somewhere.
America doesn’t need beautiful girls to seduce foreign assets. America’s soft power seduced then so much more
I got a q, why aren’t Americans renowned for their honey traps? Why is it always Russians and Chinese?
