GCM: "The first major pipeline section of the Dutch hydrogen network in Rotterdam has been filled with hydrogen, marking a significant milestone in the development of the infrastructure that will soon make up the backbone of the hydrogen market in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and ultimately the whole of Europe. A total of 32 tonnes of green hydrogen was supplied to fill the 20-mile (32-km) pipeline."
Anyone who studied AI, the actual subject, would know exactly why that is.
"I tried playing the new Claude 4.5 model in a game of chess. It did really poorly. It played a coherent opening and was difficult to play against for the first ten or fifteen moves, then everything fell apart and it started blundering and even making some illegal moves."
Cobol is an ancient, obtuse language and apparently IBM was making good mint servicing it.
Well if u r dealing with that kind of junk language you deserve whats coming to you. LLMs do ok converting one language to another.
"Anthropic published a blog post on Monday (Feb. 23) describing how its Claude Code tool can automate the analysis, dependency mapping and documentation work that has historically made COBOL modernization so expensive. In response, IBM shares closed down nearly 13.2%, at $223.35, their worst single-day decline since October 2000..
An estimated 95% of ATM transactions in the U.S. run on COBOL, and hundreds of billions of lines of the code remain in production across finance, airlines and government."
It's clear what the priorities are... Unwavering Israel support is needed for the military-industrial complex (UK is their poodle) to rake it in through the wars Israel triggers in the region.

Politico: "The state of the Democratic Party is … split.. Various Democratic factions hosting numerous competing events Tuesday night diverged on the best way to challenge President Donald Trump. Throughout the speeches, universal calls to bring down costs and crack down on ICE mixed in with more forceful and sometimes vulgar rebukes of his administration — laying bare the ideological and stylistic divides that are driving the party’s identity crisis."

Oh god the fundraising texts have started
If only Democrats did literally anything else with the same energy they put into rattling the tin cup"
Reagan cut taxes but debt exploded anyway, growth did not offset gov's lost revenue. Why? Because growth is not directly tied to enterpreneurship (neolib idea is always cut taxes spur business growth).. Supply siders got this all wrong. Growth, innovation is tied to non-profit elements in the society (social infrastructure, know-how, research -best of which is always government funded-).
The American Conservative: "Carrie Prejean Boller, who was recently removed from a federal religious freedom advisory commission, says her ouster followed months of conflict over her public criticism of Israel and objections to defining anti-Zionism as antisemitism."
