While the federal government forces American taxpayers to subsidize energy sources of the past, California is building the energy systems of the future. California ended its last coal power contract in 2024 and we're not going back to a fuel that pollutes our skies, threatens public health, and costs more than clean alternatives. Under Governor Gavin Newsom 's administration, we've expanded battery storage, modernized the grid, and accelerated clean energy projects. The results: more reliable energy, cleaner air, good-paying jobs, and a stronger economy. California will continue advancing solutions that move our state forward.

It is prefabbed modules stacked on the Hull and Deck of the rig. The modules are called by what they are designed to do such as the Drilling Well module, the Quarters module, where people sleep and eat, the power module, for steam and electricity, etc. So, basically, they place a section of the entire rig together in blocks with equipment already built into that block then stack them like a puzzle. I worked for Shell Oil as a Project Controls Engineer on many (TLP) Tension Leg Platforms that actually floated on the surface of the water. I started my career when the first TLP was being fabricated which was called Augar. Next was MARS, then RamPowell, then URSA, and finally Brutus all in the Gulf of Mexico. The platforms float on pontoons that are below the Hull and the Deck which sits on top of the Hull. Then all the modules are stacked on the deck with the equipment such as pumps, tanks, towers, exchangers, etc all placed on each module. The things are huge.

Xynova just launched Flex 2, its second-gen hybrid dexterous hand — and Xiaomi is already on the cap table. 🤖✋ The spec sheet is sharp: 23 DOF, 400g palm, ±0.1mm repeatability, 0.05N force control, 12kg single-hand grasp load, and multimodal sensing for adaptive grasping and slip detection. Xynova is not only building a robotic hand. It is building the manipulation stack around it: micro linear actuators, joint modules, sensing, control, and developer-facing integration. The Xiaomi link is confirmed. Xiaomi Strategic Investment joined Xynova’s angel round and continued adding in the Pre-A round. What is not confirmed: whether Xiaomi’s own robot hand uses Xynova’s technology. That detail still has no public proof. But the direction is clear: Xiaomi is putting money into the component layer that decides whether humanoids can actually handle objects, tools, and daily tasks. This is the part of robotics that rarely looks flashy on stage. But it decides what a robot can really do with its hands.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 THE SILENCED TRUTH: ISRAELI LOBBYING & THE ROAD TO WAR Why did the U.S. really start a war with Iran? The answer is often buried by the media, even when it comes from the administration’s own officials. Former NCTC director Joe Kent made it clear: the war began due to intense pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. Matthew Hoh explains that this is the result of a decades-long "public relations" program designed to ensure American editors and reporters are too afraid to speak the truth. When the interests of a foreign government dictate American military policy, the first casualty is always the truth. Matthew Hoh

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Nichole “Vapor” Ayers TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.

China's frontline aircraft & naval radar using GaN MMIC for Power Amplifier, while US mostly uses GaA China achieved 119W GaN TR Module as early as 2008! America made strategic error in not moving faster. While F-35 moving to GaN w/ APG-85 China has major break thru w/ GaO MMIC So J-20/35 Power amplifier modules (used for electronic warfare and radar) is 1-gen ahead of current APG-77/79/81 on F-22/18EF/35 due to American complacency at a time when America was ahead of China in 3rd gen semiconductor material. Now that China is on par w/ Japan & ahead of America in 4th gen semi material (GaO & Diamond), it is also placing export control on Ga & Diamond to America. It will have significant advantage in EW & radar over USAF aircraft in the future. Remember, my comments about PTMS on J-36, this is why it's needed. The advantage of 4th gen semi material in RF cannot be utilized unless there is enough electrical power & associated cooling & electrical system to support. Thankfully for China, it is also world's leader in electrical system efficiency, power semiconductor, battery, high voltage systems & cooling. All this the result of its EV development obviously. Everything is connected. Electrification RF & power 4th gen semi High power EW

.Zohran Kwame Mamdani froze the rent in New York and sold it as compassion. Seamus Bruner says it's the middle stage of a pipeline that runs from the border to the ballot box. The play is simple. Bring people across the border, keep them dependent on free housing and welfare for decades, then put them on the voter rolls. What you end up with is a permanent voting bloc and a city that has decided federal law is optional. Seamus Bruner mapped this machine, and its last stop is rioting in the streets.

🚨 Ilhan Omar Says Support for Israel “Essentially Doesn’t Really Exist” in the Democratic Base On Hasan Piker’s livestream last night, Ilhan Omar said support for Israel “essentially doesn’t really exist, especially within the Democratic base,” and argued that any Democrat running for office should have to answer whether they support continuing the annual $3.8 billion in aid to Israel. She then goes further, urging Democrats to support ending the “impunity” the United States provides Israel internationally, including by no longer using American power to shield Israel from accountability at the ICJ and ICC. That argument is not just wrong. It is a grotesquely one-sided telling of the conflict that ignores the terrorist groups surrounding Israel and targeting it with rockets, kidnappings, and mass-casualty violence. Omar frames Israel as though it exists apart from Hamas, Hezbollah, and the wider network of forces committed to its destruction. The trick of this argument is that it places Israel in a vacuum, producing a deeply distorted framing that heaps condemnation on Israel while soft-pedaling the terrorism and regional hostility that make its self-defense unavoidable.

The Blade Battery doesn’t bend. Not even under a 46-ton truck—and yes, it still works. Its ultra-strong structure is no accident. Each cell is arranged like a structural beam within an aluminum honeycomb frame, reinforced by high-strength panels on top and bottom, enabling it to withstand extreme pressure without deformation. This engineering gives the Blade Battery extraordinary vertical rigidity, making it one of the toughest and safest EV batteries on the road. Efficiency and extended range are other benefits of the Blade Battery, offering greater power density for optimal performance and efficiency, including faster charging. BYD CTP (Cell to Pack) technology makes the difference, with the Blade Battery increasing space utilization by 50%. This improves energy density and allows more batteries in a compact space, with a longer driving range. The 'honeycomb-like aluminum' design of the Blade Battery also provides greater rigidity and safety.

Welcome to the Full Vertical Integration era of Web3. Until now, devs have had to patch together multiple networks to build useful dApps. And the dApps themselves had to hop across multiple networks to function. But what if you had all that you needed on one shared security, low-latency network? That's what Supra Layer 1 is building, one powerful MultiVM blockchain with in-built oracle data feeds, onchain randomness, automation, and cross-chain communication. Everything developers need, all in one place, making it simpler to build dApps — while helping dApps themselves run faster, more secure, and with lower costs. We're bringing the power of Full Vertical Integration to Web3 to enable a new breed of Super dApps, and it’s just getting started. LFMove!

🇯🇵 The country that wrote pacifism into its constitution after two atomic bombs is now openly discussing acquiring nuclear weapons of its own. Japan has doubled its defense budget, scrapped decades-old limits on arms exports, and can now sell lethal weapons to 17 countries, all under PM Sanae Takaichi. She has explicitly warned of the Chinese threat to Taiwan, which sits just 100 km from Japanese territory. Article 9 of Japan's post-war constitution renounced war entirely, it was written by American occupiers specifically to prevent Japan from ever becoming a military power again. For 80 years, the Japanese built their national identity around it. But what changed is the neighborhood: China rehearsing Taiwan invasions, North Korea regularly test-firing nuclear-capable missiles, Russia at war in Europe with Chinese backing, and an American security umbrella that looks less reliable by the year. Japan isn’t abandoning pacifism because it wants to, it is abandoning it because the world it was designed for is gone. The country that gave us the word kamikaze is rearming, and this time its neighbors are paying close attention. Source: DW News

This is how we build Europe's most reliable rocket: MIURA 5 🚀 At our state-of-the-art facility, we manufacture all metallic structures of our launch vehicle and its TEPREL-C family engines (including combustion chambers and turbopumps). Where we combine proven industry technologies with years of heritage and cutting-edge processes like metal additive manufacturing and laser welding. Robust end-to-end process management, with quality control integrated into each step, ensures that all engineering models reach our test benches in Teruel exactly as designed. There, we test and use the results to rapidly iterate and improve manufacturing until every subsystem is qualified. This approach gives us the agility and flexibility to move confidently toward the first MIURA 5 test flight at CSG (CNES/ESA) in Kourou, French Guiana, delivering on our promise of reliability and performance.

Today, we laid the physics foundation for our ARC fusion power plant. ⚛️ With 5 deeply researched papers — validated by independent peer review and published in the Journal of Plasma Physics — we’ve shown we've nailed the scientific basics of producing copious amounts of fusion power. The collective assessment from our 58 co-authors? This machine will work. No scientific breakthroughs are required to bring this clean, secure, abundant source of energy to the grid. Here is how we're handling fusion's biggest challenges: ⚡ Powering the Grid: Using extremely strong magnets, ARC will confine the plasma long enough to generate 1.1 GW of fusion power. We'll convert that into 400 MW of continuous net electricity — enough to power ~280,000 average American homes. 🛡️ Handling Heat Exhaust: To control a superhot, unruly cloud of charged particles, we're utilizing proven methods to safely handle the heat exhaust that acts as a key practical constraint for tokamaks. ✅ Managing Disruptions: We aren't trying to build an operationally perfect machine. We are pragmatically designing ARC to safely handle disruptions and keep the plasma stable for top performance. 🏗️ Proving the Approach: We're building on decades of tokamak research and supercomputer simulations. And we're proving our approach right now with SPARC, the tokamak we are actively building in Massachusetts. With our transparency, you don’t have to take our assertions on faith. We are really pushing fusion forward.

Formula 1 pistons are Forged from ultra light high strength Aluminum alloys like 2618 grade racing alloys, then coated with thermal barrier and anti friction surface treatments, each piston is designed to survive combustion temperatures and inertial loads that would destroy conventional engine components within seconds. At around 20,000 RPM, the piston is reversing direction roughly 333 times per second, meaning it is constantly accelerating and decelerating under combustion pressures while experiencing peak inertial loads in the range of 10,000-15,000 g equivalents in high performance racing conditions. Each piston in a Formula 1 spec engine can cost roughly $3,000 to $7,000 per unit, not because of material alone, but because of the machining precision, weight balancing, and microscopic tolerance control required to keep it stable at that frequency. What makes it remarkable is not that it moves fast, but that it survives repeated directional failure hundreds of times every second without breaking apart for 5000+kms or extreme racing. 📹The AutoLife

🚨 China just announced — on Saturday, after Trump’s Beijing summit — that it will reduce tariffs on American farm products. This is being framed as a Trump trade win. Here is the part that framing leaves out. US farm exports to China collapsed 65.7% last year. They fell to $8.4 billion. China had been one of the top three buyers of American crops. Trump’s tariffs closed that market. China retaliated with its own tariffs. American farmers lost a year of sales while Brazil and Argentina took the business. Brazil’s soybean exports to China hit a record 85 million metric tons in 2025. Today’s “win” is China agreeing to partly reopen the door the US closed.

🚨 China just announced — on Saturday, after Trump’s Beijing summit — that it will reduce tariffs on American farm products. This is being framed as a Trump trade win. Here is the part that framing leaves out. US farm exports to China collapsed 65.7% last year. They fell to $8.4 billion. China had been one of the top three buyers of American crops. Trump’s tariffs closed that market. China retaliated with its own tariffs. American farmers lost a year of sales while Brazil and Argentina took the business. Brazil’s soybean exports to China hit a record 85 million metric tons in 2025. Today’s “win” is China agreeing to partly reopen the door the US closed.

🇷🇺🇵🇰 Pakistan turns to Russia to break free from Western AI dominance By partnering with Russia on artificial intelligence, Pakistan can reduce its reliance on Western technologies and sidestep the prohibitive costs of building its own computing infrastructure, according to Amir Jahangir, Co-Founder and CEO of Mishal Pakistan, in an interview with Sputnik. Pakistan’s government has declared AI to be a national priority sector, committing $1 billion to its development by 2030. It has also signaled interest in cooperating with Russia on AI initiatives "It creates a more Eastern based technology or Euro-Asian based technology platforms that can be used in Pakistan," Jahangir said In his view, Russia-Pakistan teamwork on AI could also extend to the following areas: 🔸 Cybersecurity. Pakistan aims to leverage Russian technologies to secure the digitalization of its economy. 🔸 Joint ventures and business-to-business collaboration. Russian cybersecurity firms and Pakistani businesses can form partnerships, mutually benefiting from each other’s technologies and market opportunities 🔸 Broader industrial integration, including at Pakistan Steel Mills, where Russian technical support could help revive the plant and transform it into a major industrial enterprise based in Pakistan
