He’s just too smooth. Pre-game in and out look at ’26 Vanderbilt Baseball commit Aiden Ruiz ahead of Game 3 of @ACBaseballGames. The 5-10, 165-pound SS has been one of the top defenders over the past two years having played Upperclass in 2024 and Underclass in 2023. “Like butter” and makes it look easy up the middle. A switch hitter who plays with speed and a knack for getting on base. Hitting leadoff today. Out of Stony Brook (NY). Five Tool New York Five Tool Baseball profile:

MISSION 2027 EL LEFT WINGER🚨🚨🚨 Maybe Luiz Diaz wasn't destined to play for Barca but.... Maybe his stereotype/regen might be at the door. José Escorcia is a 16 year old LW who plays for Nacional. He stands at 1.76cm tall make who sis a right-footed player. He utilizes a signature inside cut to bypass right-backs, opening up diagonal shooting angles into the far corner or creating passing lanes for overlapping full-backs. Escorcia possesses the same blistering acceleration and low center of gravity that makes Díaz so difficult to contain. He prefers to isolate defenders in wide areas, using sharp body feints and sudden changes of pace rather than over-complicating his skill moves. Escorcia aggressively presses opposing defenders from the front and regularly tracks back to assist his fullback. Escorcia currently projects as a slightly more clinical finisher at the youth level. His MVP run at the 2026 South American U-17 Championship highlighted his composure inside the penalty box. A top Elite potential at LW which barca could land for peanuts. Barca should reach a pre-agreement to make sure Jose arrives at BLAUGRANA in 2027. 💙❤️

🚨 🇺🇸 HOUSE OF MAXWELL: THE BACKSTORY THAT MAKES EPSTEIN MAKE SENSE House of Maxwell digs into the origins of Ghislaine Maxwell and her father Robert, but the picture is anything but ordinary. Robert wasn’t just a media tycoon; he was deeply enmeshed in intelligence circles, political power, and shadowy financial networks across multiple countries. Those connections didn’t disappear with his death, as they became the ecosystem Ghislaine operated in for decades. This matters because the Epstein saga didn’t appear out of thin air; it grew inside long-standing elite networks built on access, leverage, and silence. If you don’t understand the Maxwell background, the protection, privilege, and unanswered questions around Epstein make no sense. This is context the public was never encouraged to examine, and context changes everything. Once Robert bought the Daily Mirror Newspapers, the story gets even darker. Robert didn’t just own the newspapers; he controlled narratives, careers, and political pressure through one of Britain’s most powerful media machines. ‘The Mirror’ wasn’t just a business asset, it was a form of leverage, protection, and influence wrapped in “journalism.” That kind of media power doesn’t just shape headlines, it shapes what never gets reported at all. Elite protection doesn’t work without media silence, and the Maxwell empire had the reach to manufacture it. When people ask how certain figures stayed untouchable for decades, this is a big part of the answer. Power isn’t just money or intelligence ties, but control over information, which the Maxwell family had plenty of. Source: Upstart Radio, Grace 🔎

🚨 Robert F Kennedy Jr says ‘between Medicaid and Medicare, there's about a hundred billion stolen every year’ He says California is the worst. People are getting paid $600 per doctor appointment they drive people to One woman makes $3,000 a month just taking her ex to appointments “There was a doctor in California that he visited and the doctor had a patient who was a heroin addict. Heroin addict was coming to see him 4 times a month for some kind of a treatment. And one day he looked at doctors, looked out the door and saw his ex-wife waiting for him in the car. And the doctor said, Oh, are you back together with your ex-wife? He said, no, I hate her guts. And he said, but she drives me because she gets paid $600 every time she drives me. And he said, don't put you back together with your ex. We make $3,000 a month, you know, with her driving me this and then I drive her to hers — There's all kinds of those opportunities for fraud”

🚨 A CHART FROM 1875 PREDICTED THIS EXACT YEAR. LOOK AT YOUR SCREEN. Three indices. One blow-off top. All curling over at the same moment - exactly on the year a man circled in pencil 150 years ago. His name was Samuel Benner. He wasn't a banker, a quant, or a Wall Street prophet. He was an Ohio pig farmer who got financially wiped out in the Panic of 1873 - and was so haunted by it that he spent the rest of his life trying to figure out why markets boom and bust on a clock. In 1875, he published his answer: a hand-drawn chart labeling every future year as one of three things - panic, good times, or hard times. "Good times," in his words, meant high prices and the time to sell. He mapped it all the way to 2059 - and never lived to see almost any of it. Here's the uncomfortable part: his chart has shadowed the big ones for 150 years - the 1929 crash, the dot-com top, 2008. People keep laughing at the dead farmer right up until they're not. So look at what his chart says about right now. 2026 is a "good times - SELL" year. Now look at your screen again. Not one index - three. The Russell 1000, the S&P 500, and the Nasdaq 100. Large caps, the broad market, and big tech, all spiking to the same peak and rolling over together. That's not a sector wobble. That's the entire U.S. market topping at once, on the exact year the farmer flagged before electricity was even in homes. Do I think a 19th-century pig-iron cycle secretly governs Nvidia's stock price? No. The honest take is that Benner's chart has misfired before, and "a calendar told me so" is a terrible reason to sell anything. But here's what makes 2026 different from every other time this chart got hyped: this time the fundamentals showed up to the party. Valuations last seen at the dot-com peak. A Fed that's turned hawkish into sticky inflation - not cutting, threatening to hike. A tech rally so narrow it cracks the second the AI story blinks. And a market that just watched a major economy fall 10% in a single day this week. The farmer didn't predict any of that. He just happened to circle the year the math finally caught up with the mania. You don't have to believe in the chart. You just have to notice that the chart and reality are pointing at the exact same door - and everyone's still walking in. When the superstition and the spreadsheet agree, that's the one time it's worth looking up.

🚨 UFO DISABLES TEN AMERICAN NUCLEAR WEAPONS - AIR FORCE OFFICER SPEAKS OUT 🚨 Robert Salas was a first lieutenant stationed at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana. He was in charge of monitoring the status of ten nuclear missiles at Oscar Flight Center deep underground. In March of 1967, he gets a call from a panicked topside guard about unidentified flying objects. Suddenly, all ten of his missiles go offline - they are completely disabled. Others topside on the base freak out. Strategic Air Command documents. Boeing was hired as a consultant to explain what may have caused the failure. No one is able to provide an explanation. Salas has multiple colleagues on record corroborating his experience (audio and video testimonies). He is one of 167 Q Cleared Nuclear Employees at bases across the United States who have witnessed UFO incidents around nuclear bases and have gone public about them. There are likely many, many more in the shadows (as Salas and others broke their NDAs with their testimonies). Recently, The Wall Street Journal wrote a hit piece discrediting this now 85 year old witness. The piece claims that an experimental EMP was used on American Nuclear Weapons unbeknownst to anyone at the nuclear base, with officers present. They cite a model of an EMP that was not even in use until 1973 (even though this event happened in 1967). They also didn't accurately incorporate Salas or his colleagues testimonies among many other egregious errors. Finally, they didn't let this 85 year old adequately respond to the article, asking him to cut his 1K+ word response to less than a half a page. Basically, they sucker punched him. In this interview, I discuss everything with Salas directly: the event in full detail, the Wall Street Journal hit piece and disclosure at large. He opens to me about colleagues he's had who have tested "experimental, reverse engineered flying vehicles". We discuss the Condon Committee, J. Alan Hynek, the History of UFOs, Antigravity and more. Please enjoy!

Some love stories don't end with a goodbye. They simply find a quieter way of staying. For 53 years, SS Mishra and his wife built a life around the smallest rituals — doing yoga together every morning, sharing household chores, remembering each other's favourite breakfast, and finding joy in ordinary days. When she passed away last year, the silence was unbearable. But instead of letting her memories fade, he chose to keep a part of her alive. His wife loved crocheting. Whenever she needed a new colour of wool, it was her husband who would go searching for it. She had once created a page to showcase her work. Hardly anyone noticed it then. Today, after her passing, it's her husband who uploads her crochet creations. Thousands now admire the art she poured her heart into. Sometimes, he looks at the comments and quietly says, "They finally see you. I think you must be smiling from heaven." He still makes the same breakfast they once shared. He still brings home her favourite flowers. Their home is still filled with the cushion covers and table pieces she lovingly crocheted. Because for him, love didn't end the day she left. It simply became something he chooses to live, every single day.❤️ #LoveBeyondLife #TrueLove #SeniorCitizens #CrochetArt #HeartwarmingStories [crochet legacy, lifelong love, grief and healing, human stories, lasting memories]

🗣️" In the years before the war, Hitler wasn't rounding up people by the thousands and shooting them the way the communists were. Hitler wasn't shooting anybody. His SS troops weren't raping or terrorizing anyone either. Hitler was doing one thing which resulted in a huge, lying, hate propaganda effort against him from Hollywood. That one thing was Hitler's campaign to break the grip of the Jews on Germany. -In Germany, Hitler took the news and entertainment media away from the Jews. -He kicked them out of the legal profession which they had monopolized. -He kicked them out of the teaching profession where they had been pumping their ideas into the heads of German children. And Hitler did all of this peacefully, nonviolently. He didn't round up Jews and shoot them. He simply made it illegal for them to own German newspapers and German radio stations. He made it illegal for them to practice law or to teach in German schools. And so the Jews were leaving Germany. Between 1933 and 1939, two-thirds of the Jews in Germany immigrated. At the same time, the Jewish commissars in the Soviet Union were butchering millions of people. But the hate propaganda coming out of Hollywood was entirely anti-German, not anti-Soviet. The Jews' only concern was the welfare of their fellow Jews. They didn't care how many Russians or Ukrainians were murdered, but they screamed at the top of their lungs when Hitler took the German media away from them. And they lied to the American people about what was happening in Europe. They lied in order to make us hate the Germans the way they did. When a Jew assassinated a German diplomat in Paris in 1938, and the German people reacted by mashing up Jewish department stores and synagogues in several German cities, the Jewish news media in the United States reported the incident as if Jews were being massacred wholesale in Germany. That was the famous Kristallnacht, which the Jews still continue to remind us of every year in order to melt a little more sympathy from us. The picture of Germany painted by Jewish hate propaganda in the United States during the years preceding the Second World War was a complete distortion of reality. Americans were told that Germans lived in constant fear of the Gestapo and the SS, that Hitler was a madman who terrorized the German people, and he fell to the floor and chewed the edge of his carpet when he became angry. Americans were told that Germany was a land of concentration camps and barbed wire and police dogs. Our invasion of Germany was to be a liberation of the German people from the tyrannical rule of Hitler and the SS. That's actually the word the Jewish propagandists used to describe the American and Soviet terror bombings, rape, and dismemberment of Germany. Liberation. The American and Soviet invaders were to be the.... liberators " -William Pierce - Jewish lies about Hitler (part 1)

Vector Database by hand ✍️ ~ 10 steps walkthrough below Vector databases are the backbone of Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). How do they actually work? Goal: index three sentences, then answer a query by finding the nearest one, filling in every cell yourself. = 1. Given = A dataset of three sentences, three words each. In practice it is millions of them. = 2. Word embeddings = Let us look up each word in an embedding table. Here the vocabulary is 22 words; in practice it is tens of thousands, and the vectors have thousands of dimensions rather than four. = 3. Encoding = We feed the sequence to an encoder, one linear layer and a ReLU, and get one feature vector per word. In practice the encoder is a transformer. = 4. Mean pooling = Let us average across the columns. Three word vectors collapse into one, which is what people mean by a text embedding or a sentence embedding. = 5. Indexing = We multiply by a projection matrix and the four dimensions become two. It is doing the job of a hash: a short representation that is faster to compare, and it is what gets saved in the vector storage. = 6. Process "who are you" = Let us repeat steps 2 to 5 on the second sentence. = 7. Process "who am I" = We do it a third time. The database is now indexed. = 8. Query "am I you" = Let us push the query through the very same pipeline: lookup, encoder, mean pooling, projection, and it lands as a 2D vector in the same space. = 9. Dot products = We transpose the query and multiply, which takes the dot product against every stored vector at once. The dot product is the estimate of similarity. = 10. Nearest neighbour = Let us scan for the largest: 60/9 beats 44/9 and 40/9, so the answer is "who am I". Scanning billions of vectors one at a time is what makes this the slow step in practice, which is why real databases use an approximate nearest neighbour index like HNSW. The outputs: Stored index vectors = [5/3, 2/3], [5/3, 0], [7/3, 2/3] Query vector = [8/3, 2/3] Dot products = 44/9, 40/9, 60/9 Nearest neighbour = "who am I" The takeaway: a vector database is an embedding pipeline, a projection, and a dot product. Every step here is arithmetic you can do in pen, which is worth remembering when the word "database" makes it sound like something else. 💾 Save this post!

INF Kodey Shojinaga (Kansas Baseball) is an intriguing Sophomore-eligible prospect. Was outstanding as a true Freshman and hit .378/.421/.526 with 11 2B, 6 HR, and 32 RBIs. Also slashed .326/.396/.349 across 11 games on the Cape. Shojinaga was named Co-Freshman of the Year in the Big 12 and earned a Team USA invitation. Medium build at 5'10", 190-lbs with some physicality in the lower-half. Slightly open front side in the box with a normal handset. Holds bat horizontally over his back shoulder with the barrel pointed slightly back. Medium-high leg kick, but the stride itself is small. Little bit of a bat wrap, but he's consistently on time. Average bat speed. Hit over power profile right now, but Shojinaga has an advanced feel for the barrel and plus bat-to-ball skills. Last season, he sported a 93% overall IZ contact rate. Approach is sound, but sometimes chases down/away. Does a nice job of using the whole field and working inside the baseball. Would put a 55 on the pure hit tool. Sound defender at 2B with above average arm strength and makes the plays he needs to make. He has quick hands and some range in either direction. Shojinaga also has experience catching, and got some reps behind the plate this summer for Team USA. Will be interesting to see what it would look like if he focused on catching - actions need refining, but the arm strength is there. Shojinaga will need to really hit, and he's capable of doing so. This July, he profiles as a 5th-8th round pick.

🚨THE SPACEX CHART IS MOVING EXACTLY LIKE I SAID $SPCX is now down ~50% from its peak and it's tracing a chart we've all seen before. Pull up Rocket Lab in 2020. Same IPO launch. Same retail pile-in. Same dump right at the top. Lay the two side by side and they're nearly identical. Here's how I read the price from here: $135 → $120 → $140 $140 → $134 → $117 $117 → $85 → $91 $91 → $160 → $250 Down first the flush that shakes out everyone who bought the hype. Fake bounces in between to trap the dip-buyers. Then the real move, once there's nobody left to sell. And here's what makes it dangerous: this entire drop happened before the unlocks fully hit. The float is still about to explode. That's what sets up the final leg down and the entry that actually matters. With the right timing, $SPCX could be one of the best plays of 2026. I'm not buying yet. The moment I make my first buy, I'll post it HERE. You'll see it first. Turn notifications on.

🚨ANTHROPIC'S FOUNDER JUST PREDICTED THAT AI WILL DOUBLE HUMAN LIFESPAN TO 150 YEARS.. CURE MOST CANCER.. AND ELIMINATE POVERTY.. ALL WITHIN 10 YEARS.. AND HE'S NOT EVEN THE OPTIMISTIC ONE.. Everyone thinks Dario Amodei is the guy who wants to slow AI down.. The cautious one.. The safety guy.. He just published an essay predicting what happens if AI goes right.. And it reads like science fiction.. Except he's dead serious.. And he has the credentials to back every word.. Here's what he thinks happens in the next 5 to 10 years.. Nearly all infectious disease.. Prevented or cured.. mRNA vaccines already showed us the path.. AI finishes the job.. Most cancer.. Eliminated.. Not just treated.. 95% or greater reduction in both deaths and new cases.. AI designs treatment regimens tailored to the individual genome of each tumor.. Something that's technically possible today but takes enormous human expertise to do.. AI scales it to everyone.. Alzheimer's.. Solved.. He thinks it's exactly the type of problem AI can crack.. Because it requires better measurement tools to isolate what's actually happening in the brain.. Once we understand it.. Prevention will probably be surprisingly simple.. Genetic disease.. Most of it preventable through improved embryo screening.. And curable in living people through safer descendants of CRISPR.. Most mental illness.. Cured.. Depression.. PTSD.. Addiction.. Schizophrenia.. He believes the answer is some combination of biochemistry and neural network-level problems that AI can untangle.. And here's the line that stopped me.. Human lifespan.. Doubled.. To 150 years.. He points out that life expectancy already doubled in the 20th century.. From 40 to 75.. So doubling it again is "on trend".. Drugs already exist that increase maximum lifespan in rats by 25 to 50%.. Some turtles already live 200 years.. We're clearly not at a biological ceiling.. He calls this the "compressed 21st century".. The idea that AI gives us 100 years of biological progress in 5 to 10 years.. But he doesn't stop at health.. He thinks AI could drive 20% annual GDP growth in the developing world.. Bringing sub-Saharan Africa to China's current GDP per capita within a decade.. He thinks AI could eradicate malaria not through treating millions of people individually.. But by releasing modified mosquitoes that block the disease at the source.. One centralized action instead of a million.. He thinks AI could make democracy structurally stronger.. Not through propaganda.. But by giving every citizen an AI that knows every law they're entitled to.. Every benefit they qualify for.. Every right they have.. And helps them actually access it.. He imagines AI that monitors judicial systems for bias.. AI that helps find common ground between opposing political views.. AI that makes government services actually work the way they're supposed to.. And he addresses the question everyone asks.. What happens to meaning when AI can do everything.. His answer.. Most people aren't the best in the world at anything right now.. And it doesn't bother them.. Meaning comes from relationships and connection.. Not economic productivity.. People will still pursue difficult challenges.. Still compete.. Still create.. The fact that an AI could theoretically do it better won't matter any more than it matters that someone somewhere is already better than you at every hobby you have.. But here's what makes this essay different from every other AI optimism piece.. Dario Amodei runs one of the three most powerful AI companies on earth.. He has a PhD in computational neuroscience.. He personally worked on mass spectrometry and neural probes.. He's not a pundit.. He's a scientist who happens to be a CEO.. And the same man who publicly says there's a 25% chance AI causes human extinction.. Is also saying that if we get it right.. We cure nearly every disease.. Double human lifespan.. Eliminate most poverty.. And fundamentally transform what it means to be alive.. Both things are true at the same time.. That's what makes this the most important essay anyone in AI has written this year.. He ends with this.. "I think many will be literally moved to tears by it".. He's talking about watching disease disappear.. Poverty dissolve.. Human potential unlock all at once.. Not in a century.. In a decade.. If we get it right.

100 years ago, an American inventor named Thomas Townsend Brown believed he found a link between electromagnetism and gravity. He was immediately written off as a quack. But Paul Schatzkin Paul Schatzkin spent a decade plus researching him, and the truth (as you'll find from his incredible book, The Man Who Mastered Gravity), is not so simple: 1) Highly credible witnesses to Brown's anomalous gravity related experiments in science and government include: Edward Teller (Hydrogen Bomb inventor), Curtis LeMay (Air Force General), Bill Lear (Learjet), Paul Alfred Biefeld (physicist), Agnew Bahnson (physics research patron who supported the establishment of quantum gravity) and others (we have quotes from these people in the video, linked below) 2) There is a LOT of evidence Brown's work made it into the B2 Stealth Bomber. There's also a 1942 FBI file on him stating he knew more about radar than anyone else in the Navy; not smoking guns that he cracked anti-gravity (at all), but quickly dispels the illusion his work never amounted to anything 3) We also know through Schatzkin's research, that Brown retrieved exotic propulsion technology from Nazi Germany. Likely from SS officer Hans Kammler's Skoda Works 4) We interview an anonymous (presently active) top Navy Scientist that believes Brown did discover the missing link between electromagnetism and gravity; he presents a novel framework for this link 5) It is my belief that Brown's story is far deeper than meets the eye; it has implications for the nature of time (tightly related to gravity, even in conventional General Relativity) and our understanding of "UFOs and ETs". He was likely CIA office of scientific intelligence (the group probably involved in all UFO and Antigravity related research midcentury) 6) The whole Bob Lazar story is probably best explained through the lens of Thomas Townsend Brown 7) If Brown didn't crack anti-gravity (very open to that), he likely created novel forms of ion-based propulsion in use in very advanced tech today 8) All of Brown's work needs modern and independent replication and corroboration in a vacuum chamber. We'll pay anyone $50,000-100,000 (or more, if necessary, depending on equipment needs) to do this if you let us film it. Special thanks to Nick Cook who also makes an appearance and has extensively researched the history of Aerospace gravity related research (meeting with top Prime Contractor/Defense brass). This couldn't have been made without his incredible book, The Hunt for Zero Point. Watch, if you're ready for a wild, wild ride:

LHP Ben Abeldt (TCU Baseball) is a name to follow closely this spring. Enjoyed a strong Freshman year in which he worked a 3.60 ERA with 71 Ks to 24 BB in 55 IP. Was dominant last spring and pitched his way to a 1.83 ERA with 54 Ks to just 16 BB across 44.1 IP. Two-time Team USA invitee. Standard pitchers' frame at 6-foot-3 and 210-pounds. Added noticeable strength and physicality to it between '23 and '24. Some natural funk and deception in his delivery. Uncomfortable look, especially for LHH. Works exclusively on the 1B side of the rubber which makes it even tougher for LHH. Long, loose arm stroke and attacks from a low-three quarter slot. Big time crossfire. Abeldt relies heavily on his fastball (threw it 79% of the time in '24) that sits in the 91-94 MPH range. Was up to 96 during the spring and up to 98 over the summer. Run and ride through the zone with particular life on his arm side. Like a lot of the low-release lefties who have a little giddy up on their heaters, it's generates the most whiffs when located on the inner-1/2 and/or top-1/2 of the zone. Does a nice job of staying off the barrel with it, 23% whiff and OBA of .208 last spring. Go-to secondary offering is his low-80s slider. Long, sweeping life with some late bite at times. Not to beat a dead horse, but just a brutal look for lefties; Abeldt will release the pitch from essentially behind their backs. Legit swing-and-miss pitch that's effective against both right and lefthanded hitters. 45% miss rate last spring, comfortably a 55. Closer to a 6 than a 55. Third pitch right now is a low-80s CH for which he's still gaining a feel. Gets good separation off his FB (averaged 10 MPH off) and does a nice job of killing spin. Natural fade to the arm side and will occasionally flash some tumbling life. Profiles as an effective option against RHH. Strike-throwing ability is above-average. The key for Abeldt this season is selling his ability to start. Has made just 2 starts in his collegiate career and could headline TCU's rotation in '25. Look for both the SL and CH usage (especially the SL) to tick up. Curious to see how he fares in more extended looks. Easy comp is former Miami LHP Rafe Schlesinger. 3rd-4th round type this July.
