REALITY CHECK: It doesn’t take a cloudburst to paralyse our “smart” cities. A few hours of rain and Noida goes under, just as Gurugram did days ago. The problem isn’t the monsoon. It’s the failure to build cities that can withstand it. Not easy but better, more accountable urban governance might help. Pic here: from a Noida main road today.

Recent Income Tax data reveals a startling truth for the Indian middle class: over the last 10 years, average earnings for this cohort crawled from ₹10.23 lakhs to just ₹10.69 lakhs. While your nominal pay stayed nearly flat, the urban cost of living comfortably doubled in that same period. We call this the "Double Whammy": A. Stagnant Wages: Hardly any rise in actual earnings over a decade. B. Soaring Costs: A reality where expenses are doubling every 8 years. The result? A record-breaking boom in retail borrowing just to maintain a basic lifestyle. If your income isn't outperforming this math, you are falling behind. Watch the full discussion on why the "Middle Class Dream" is under the pump:

Akshayakalpa has 13 years of data showing that simply introducing bee boxes increases the average coconut yield per farm by 20%. It’s such a massive win-win that they’ve now integrated 7,500 bee boxes across all their farms. Shashi from Akshayakalpa Organic recently brought over two bee boxes for my home to get us started with beekeeping. In this clip (full video in comments), he walks through how incredibly simple it is to set up a bee home, even in smaller or semi-urban spaces. The bigger takeaway here is about how we view sustainability. We often look for grand, complex technological solutions to environmental issues. But the reality is that our survival is deeply tied to basic, interconnected ecosystems. Without pollinators, our food systems collapse; roughly a third of what we eat depends entirely on them. Taking care of them isn't just a good deed; it's an absolute necessity for our own survival. And I think education is the key, which maybe the bee boxes in urban spaces can do. Can’t be prouder of everything that the Akshayakalpa team is doing for improving the quality of life of farmers, their economics, their cows, and everything else.

Chicago After Dark: A City Without Life by drkugler The problem isn't black or white, Democrat or Republican. On a warm June night in 2025, downtown Chicago reveals a stark reality - our city has become a ghost town. As I walked the streets at 12:30 AM, the emptiness was suffocating. Where are the vibrant spaces for people to gather, to live, to connect? Every corner tells a story of abandonment. Miller's Pub sits dark. Street corners host scattered groups with nowhere else to go. The only signs of life are a few food joints - a gyro spot, a taco stand, a Dunkin' Donuts - barely hanging on. People wander aimlessly, some sleeping on sidewalks, others waiting for buses that seem to symbolize their own state of limbo. This isn't just about one neighborhood or one community. This is about a systemic failure that transcends race, politics, and simple solutions like reparations. Our city needs more than checks - it needs real investment, real spaces for human connection. The problem isn't black or white, Democrat or Republican. It's about creating a city that actually works for its people. We need spaces to drink, eat, dance, watch movies - basic human needs that seem to have disappeared from our urban landscape. Chicago deserves better. We all deserve better.

VIDEO | Kolkata: Bengal Minister Agnimitra Paul says, "We have taken 2-3 important decisions. In our Urban Development and Municipal Affairs departments, we have taken the principle decision that parking on both sides of the road, which has continued illegally for 15 years, will now be regulated. Parking will be allowed only on the designated side of the road, while parking on the other side will not be permitted. Secondly, parking fees are being collected illegally in parking lots, and taxes from these collections are not being paid to the government. These illegal collections must be stopped immediately so that the entire tax amount goes to the government. Also, the helpline number was not only a women’s helpline number; it was a child helpline number. The same number should now be integrated as a women’s helpline number as well. If anyone faces any problem, both the women’s helpline and child helpline numbers should remain active. In both the Women and Child department and the Urban Development and Municipal Affairs department, a call centre should be set up so that the public can call these two departments and share their issues and grievances. She adds, "Lastly, wherever there is pollution, we have seen over the last 15 years in Bengal, in Kolkata and Asansol, that garbage is lying everywhere and is not being cleaned. Now this responsibility is also being given to the public through geotagging. We have developed an app where people can send geotagged pictures, and within two hours the corporation or municipality will come and clean the area. But along with this, I also need the cooperation of the public. We should not throw garbage on the roads. Prevention is better than cure. Of course, cleaning is our responsibility, but we must also remain conscious about littering on roads..."

CNET after testing Tesla FSD V14: I Drove Over 100 Miles With Tesla's Latest Full Self-Driving and Never Touched the Wheel. "Four days, 4 hours and 100 miles through San Francisco. I'm now fully convinced Tesla's FSD system is the future of driving. It drove me through it all. Tight curbside streets, janky parking garages, rain-slicked freeways, and even the crooked mess of Lombard Street -- both in dry and wet weather -- all without a hiccup. It handled it better than some people I saw reversing down driveways. I never felt the need to take over. Parking was the cherry on top. It would pull into or reverse into spaces, even in tight garages. Occasionally, I'd pick the exact space I wanted, but most of the time, I just let it do its thing. And it did it well. I've used Autopilot plenty, in the UK where FSD isn't a thing. But FSD is miles ahead. I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel slightly magical. I've never driven in San Francisco before. I didn't know the streets. But the car did. And I trusted it. That's the key takeaway here: I trusted the system. At no point did I clench, panic, or even hesitate. And that is not what I expected from something called "Full Self-Driving."" (video below from CNET's FSD V14 drive)

Q: Are the contractors who did the initial work with the reflecting pool are they to blame for the current condition? Trump: No, no, we had vandalism, vandals. We have 100, and we have a I think 290, 300 foot slit right through it. Probably a box cutter or a knife of some kind or we had people lifting up the basic. it’s not a lot of damage. We’ll probably have to let the water out and re fix it. They went in there with a knife. I was just told by the people over at parks, they have five people are arrested and five people are under investigation right now. And it’s a sad thing. In addition to that, they you know, we put brand new beautiful grass all around. They put these massive letters on the grass. You probably know about that, right? And they said 86, 47. They probably got that from the dirty cop Comey. You know, he’s a dirty cop, don’t you? Dirty cop. He’s a crooked guy. They destroyed the grass. So, that’s a big thing.

🔥 $PLTR Co-founder Joe Lonsdale with Tom Bilyeu on Why Meritocracy and Intelligence Matters "At Palantir, we started off with a bunch of these math champions and chess champions, just the best people out of the Ph.D. programs at Stanford, MIT, and other places. They brought their smartest friends, who brought their smartest friends, and that’s just a huge advantage. In the tech world, with the very, very top companies, you don’t see just average people there. You see extraordinarily bright minds, and that three, four, or fifth standard deviation of skill is the same way. By the way, if you want to have the Oakland A’s be a top baseball team or a top basketball team, you can’t just have an average guy on the team. You need the very, very best—the top merit in that area. In some cases, it’s a skill, like in sports. In other areas, it’s IQ, and IQ matters a lot for what we’re doing." The American government was really competent in the mid-20th century. Is it something that no one else could do? You know, we fought two world wars. We went to the Moon. It turns out that we used to have really hard tests to run things in the U.S. government. So, allow me to go back a little bit to the 19th century. The government grew a lot after the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln created a lot of new departments, and the central government all of a sudden became a much bigger thing in the 1860s and 70s. By the time of 1883, it was a mess. Everyone agreed, this is a mess because whoever wins the presidency just brings in all their friends, all their cronies, their stupid cousin Vinnie, whoever else. They’re all getting paid a ton of money just to hang out in D.C. and not get anything done. So, they said, “Guys, we need to have tests. We need to have merit. We need to actually say the people running things need to be really smart.” So, we put in these tests with the Pendleton Act of 1883, and these tests were there all the way through the Moon landing, through everything. Then, come the late 1970s, our country became very politicized around affirmative action. It turns out these tests had different results on average for different races. They weren’t racist tests, by the way. I would agree that the tests actually measured your performance. But despite that, the activist courts on the left said, “No more tests.” So, around 1980 or so, they threw out the tests. And, by the way, they didn’t just throw out the tests. They made it almost impossible to fire people. They put in massive protections where it’s really hard and slow to fire people. So, starting in 1980, our government is not able to do tests anymore, not able to do merit. It just starts getting dumber slowly over time—dumber and dumber. So, for 45 years, our government’s been getting dumber. That is interesting. Tom Bilyeu: One of the great revelations of my adult life—and this actually bothers me—is the degree to which intelligence matters. What role do you think intelligence plays, full stop? Whether you’re trying to improve the government, whether you’re trying to be the baddest kid on the international block, or you’re trying to build a company? Joe Lonsdale: This is a really important point because, obviously, intelligence isn’t everything. I think integrity, faith, why you care about the world, and your motives matter to help people. But if you actually want to be effective at whatever those motives are, intelligence is absolutely central. Merit is absolutely central. If you look at the very top companies versus an average company, you have the best and the brightest.

What Is It About the Jews That Drives Them Crazy ? ✡️ The world looks at Israel and fails to understand. A tiny nation, surrounded by enemies, stripped of natural resources, and condemned by global institutions and yet, it thrives like there is no tomorrow. As Alistair Heath, editor of the Sunday Telegraph, profoundly observes: the world’s discomfort isn't about what Israel does, it’s about what Israel is. They witness our uncapturable willpower turning deserts into blooming fields, intercepting missiles in mid-air, and rescuing our brothers from the clutches of brutal regimes. When people encounter a power they cannot explain through simple arithmetic, they call it a "fraud" or a "conspiracy". They find it easier to slander a miracle than to admit that the Jewish people are a testimony to something eternal. They see a nation that was supposed to disappear 2,000 years ago return home, revive its language, and rebuild its spirit from the ashes. This isn't just politics; it’s biblical. We are the living proof that history isn't random and that evil never has the last word. While they rage at our survival, we will continue to build, to protect, and to win. Because when your roots are planted in eternity, no storm can shake you. Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱

The 15-minute city is the ultimate Trojan Horse. It’s marketed as a walkable, community-focused utopia. But its architects at the World Economic Forum reveal its true purpose: a resilience framework for "climate change" and "global conflict." They openly state that COVID-19 compliance was the key that unlocked its feasibility. Now, the pilot program in Oxford, UK, confirms the worst fears. This isn't just about urban design; it's a system of controlled movement. Residents are allocated a limited number of annual passes to leave their designated districts. The hierarchy is already clear: some zones get 100 passes, others a mere 25. This instantly creates a tiered society where your address determines your freedom, and "inner circle" property values skyrocket. This is the blueprint. The 15-minute city has little to do with convenience and everything to do with control. It’s the physical infrastructure for a system of climate lockdowns, where your ability to move freely becomes a state-regulated commodity. Convenience is the bait. Controlled, rationed living is the trap.

Autonomous driving through tight, dynamic, stochastic, and adversarial traffic-dynamics on sub-urban roads in India, as well as through partially unstructured environments. This demos showcases the robustness of our motion planning and decision making algorithmic frameworks in enabling #autonomousdriving through seamlessly through such traffic and environmental scenarios. The vehicle starts from a generic open environment at the temple, where there are no traffic-rules to abide by. It then exits the region and assumes a generic autonomous navigation behaviour, negotiating complex traffic scenes. At various points it can be seen that the other vehicles (bikes, autos, bicyclists, and cars) didn't abide by any traffic-rule and moved in crisscross fashion, presenting adversarial scenarios, challenging our autonomous vehicle at Swaayatt Robots to take care of the collision avoidance. This classical motion planning and decision making algorithmic framework is being further scaled up with deep #reinforcementlearning, which will practically solve the sub-urban traffic-dynamics and environment negotiation for #autonomousvehicles in India and throughout the world as well. This demo was done at the Kankali Kali Mata mandir in the city of Bhopal. This demo was a culmination of our prior works and demos: off-roads, on-roads, bidirectional traffic negotiation in single lane roads, and toll-plaza navigation. We have taken up the arduous task of solving the Level-4 autonomous driving by the end of 2024, globally. #machinelearning #deeplearning

We have taken up the arduous task of solving the Level-4 autonomous driving by the end of 2024, globally. #machinelearning #deeplearning

I just press a button… and my Tesla takes me to my destination. No stress, no constant steering, no thinking about every little turn. It just drives me safely there. And honestly, it’s hard to explain this feeling to someone who hasn’t experienced the latest software yet. It’s freakin 2026... If your car isn’t electric and can’t take you from parking lot to parking lot by itself, it's like using a flip phone with a keyboard… or riding a horse in this era. That might sound dramatic, but once you see what’s actually happening behind the scenes, it starts to make sense. When I activate Tesla’s Full Self-Driving, the car is doing far more than simple cruise control that other car companies show off... it's really funny when I see them advertise it tbh. My Tesla is literally watching the world around it with eight cameras that give it a full 360° view. All that video feeds into the onboard AI computer inside the car, which is constantly analyzing everything around it like cars, lanes, pedestrians, traffic lights, construction zones, and making decisions in real time. Tesla has millions of cars on the road, and every single one is helping train the system. Even when people are driving manually, the AI is running quietly in the background predicting what it would do in that situation. And when something unusual happens, a weird intersection, a sudden obstacle, an unexpected move from another driver, that short clip gets sent back to Tesla’s data systems. Engineers then use those clips to train the next version of the driving AI. And that updated AI then gets pushed back to every Tesla through a software update. So literally overnight, your car wakes up smarter. This is what we call the Tesla’s AI flywheel. The more cars on the road, the more data the system learns from. The more it learns, the better the driving gets. The better the driving gets, the more people use it. And that cycle just keeps spinning faster. At this point the fleet has driven billions of miles using FSD, which means the system has already experienced situations that no single human driver could ever see in a lifetime. That’s why when you press that button, the car is running a massive neural network that learned from millions of real drivers and billions of miles on real roads. And the result is something that honestly feels like the future. You literally just press a button… then you arrive at your destination. I really don't know how anyone in their right mind would choose anything other than a Tesla.

Tesla’s vision-only approach to solve FSD got laughed at for many years. People called it reckless, said just cameras would never be enough, and even claimed Tesla was cutting corners. Fast forward to today, it’s pretty clear who was right. “It’s so obvious you can solve this with cameras. Why wouldn’t you solve with cameras? It’s 2026. The self-driving problem is not a sensor problem, it’s an AI problem. The cameras have enough information already. It’s a problem of extracting the information, which is an AI problem.” - Ashok Elluswamy, VP of AI at Tesla. Just like us humans, we drive with eyes, we walk with eyes, literally we do everything with our eyes. We don’t have lidar spinning and laser beams on our heads. We simply see the world and our brain figures it out… all from vision. For so many years, the industry treated autonomy like it was a hardware problem. Like “if cameras struggle, just add more sensors.” That’s exactly how companies like Waymo ended up with sensor towers that look like crazy science projects. So ugly btw too… That approach might have made sense in 2008, but not today! Bc back then, AI wasn’t good enough to truly understand the world. So engineers had no choice but to lean on lidar and radar for help. But today, cameras capture insane amounts of information, I’m talking billions of pixels every second. The thing that was missing was AI intelligence. And when AI can understand why a car is slowing or why a pedestrian is hesitating, or real world things, you just need a better brain instead of more sensors. And now, everyone else is realizing this… the future of autonomy was always about understanding the world through vision, just like we humans do. That’s the bet that Elon and Tesla made early on… he was already years ahead of everyone, when everyone was doubling down on LiDAR and radar, even when so many people mocked them for switching early. Tesla vision for the win!!! 🥇

We are nine months into this chaos, and it already feels like we’ve lived a thousand lives. Every day is a new disaster, a new headline, a new weight dropped on our backs. Normally, nine months means life is being born — but under this man, it feels like something darker has been delivered into our lives. The kind of thing that doesn’t get better when it arrives. It just keeps multiplying, feeding on our exhaustion. But here’s the truth: overwhelm is the weapon. It’s not random. It’s intentional. He stacks crisis on crisis, hoping that we stop keeping count, hoping we stop caring, hoping that we turn numb. He wants us to believe that our outrage has an expiration date, that our energy has a limit, that our solidarity has a ceiling. But he’s wrong. We’ve lived through enough to know that humans adapt. Pressure doesn’t just break us — it forges us. Think about it: nine months of this, and yes, it’s insane, but we’re still here. Still talking. Still organizing. Still pushing back. That’s proof of life. Proof of resilience. Proof that no matter how many fires he lights, we refuse to be consumed. So we resist the overwhelm. We choose focus. We choose clarity. We protect our joy like it’s a shield, because it is. We protect each other like it’s the last defense, because it is. And every time we refuse to collapse into despair, every time we get back up and act, we prove that his chaos cannot control us. This is not the end. This is the test. And history has shown — every empire built on fear and exhaustion eventually falls. We are not powerless. We are the counterweight. We are the resistance. And we will not be buried under his noise.

I’ve seen enough. Smart Assist has reached its breaking point. I was casually getting a few games in with my Barca team when I encountered a pro player who is Top 22 in the World in PvP divisions and Top 30 in the World in AI divisions using Smart Assist. This guy is clearly not a beginner at the game and I don’t want to hear any sort of nonsense excuse trying to justify him using Smart Assist because this feature was meant to help noobs and beginners at the game not pro players who know the game inside and out. I can only assume that 99% of the playerbase is using Smart Assist. It’s a fact that I am struggling to come to terms with but this is the unfortunate reality. What has happened is that slowly more and more players who were not using Smart Assist experienced how dreadful it is playing against a Smart Assist user regardless of the skill level of the Smart Assist user and decided to turn it on themselves so they don’t have to endure the suffering that comes with playing against Smart Assist. It’s a little depressing seeing where the game is at right now but this is unfortunately Konami’s vision for the game. I just can’t wrap my head around it when you literally can have a garbage team with $0 spent with Smart Assist turned on and be able to smash a fully paid premium Epic and Big Time team by pressing and holding 1 button the entire game. Hopefully soon they will realize that all of the Smart Assist users (which is 99% of the playerbase) will see no need to spend any money on the game since an untrained GP Niklas Sule from the Standard Player list with 67 speed and 48 acceleration (I’m not lying that’s literally his stats) is able to catch up with George Best with 100+ speed and 100+ Acceleration.

We have spent a century calling children failures for not fitting a system that was never designed for them. AI is about to expose just how many geniuses we threw away. MrBeast, the most watched creator on Earth, just diagnosed exactly what’s broken. MrBeast: “I graduated from school thinking books suck and books are boring and I never read a book. But reality, they were just giving me shitty books that I hated.” He isn’t anti-education. He’s anti-assembly line. Our education system is competing against billion-dollar algorithms engineered for maximum attention. And it’s fighting back with a whiteboard. MrBeast is a visual learner. He retains information three times more effectively when he sees a visual of it. The school system never told him that. It just handed him books and called him a bad student. For a century we forced every child to learn the same way at the same speed. The gifted ones were bored. The struggling ones were abandoned. And the ones who learned differently were labeled the problem. They weren’t the problem. We just never spoke their language. The traditional classroom is crowd control. MrBeast: “Just because that’s what our parents did doesn’t mean that’s what we need to subject ourselves to.” With modern technology, kids could learn more in five hours than they absorb in eight. Five hours. Then give them their childhood back. AI is about to make that possible. Not a teacher moving at the speed of the class. A 1-to-1 tutor moving at the exact speed of the individual. Detects a visual learner? Generates interactive simulations. Kid obsessed with space? Rewrites math, history, and physics around the Apollo missions. Education bound not by time, but by mastery. We will never know how many breakthroughs never came because the mind that carried them was given the wrong book and told they weren’t smart enough. That era is ending. The most powerful education system ever built is coming. And it will never mistake a different mind for a broken one.

Secretary Rubio just laid down the law when a reporter asked him about the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. He doubled down: The United States will NEVER allow the Iranian regime to normalize the attacks on commercial ships. RUBIO: “These guys have shut down the Straits of Hormuz.” “This is what Iran is saying, we will shut down the straits and no one can go through. No country in the world can go through unless we allow you to go through and you have to pay us.” “But our ships can go through, meaning the Iranian ships, as much as they want.” “That’s crazy! Who would agree to that?!” “So how are we going to have a situation where they get to close the straits to everybody and the only people allowed to go through there 100% without paying anything are the Iranians?” “If you do that they will keep the straits closed forever.” “They are trying to make this a new normal.” “Under NO circumstances can we ever allow them to normalize the fact that they get to blow up commercial ships and put mines in the water.” “The response to that is we’re going blockade your ships.” “If everyone’s ships are not getting out, your ships are not getting out either.” “That’s not an act of war, that’s a defensive measure, it’s a counter to what they have decided to do.”

The Decline of Western Intelligence: A Sobering Reality Check Dr. Didier Raoult, renowned French microbiologist, has sounded the alarm on a disturbing trend: IQ levels in Western Europe, France, and the USA have been steadily declining since the dawn of the 21st century. Speaking with unfiltered candor, Raoult argues that we're not just getting dumber—we're spiraling into decadence and intellectual stagnation. The data backs him up. The PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) tests, conducted globally to measure student performance in mathematics, reading, and problem-solving, reveal a stark divide. East Asian nations—China, Japan, Singapore—consistently dominate the rankings, while Western nations lag further behind each year. Raoult highlights a chilling statistic: in France and the USA, 30% of adults can no longer read and comprehend a single page of text. 30%. This isn't just a crisis of education—it's a societal collapse in critical thinking. Raoult points to elite institutions, the Harvards and Yales of the world, churning out politicians and policymakers who occupy the highest echelons of power. Yet, despite their credentials, their actions betray a profound lack of wisdom. "They're not clever," Raoult asserts. "They're doing stupid things because they're not as smart as you think." The implications are dire. If the West continues to be led by those who lack the intellectual rigor to address complex challenges, how can we hope to reverse this decline? Raoult's solution is clear: we must identify and elevate those with genuine intelligence, not just pedigrees. Without this, we're doomed to be governed by the incompetent, driving us deeper into the abyss. This is a wake-up call. The West must confront its intellectual decay head-on, or risk being outpaced by those who value knowledge and discipline over complacency. Are we ready to change course, or will we continue to let decadence define us?
