"Microsoft prepared to give those [OpenAI] engineers everything they needed to continue their work: a floor in LinkedIn’s offices, plentiful cloud-computing resources, #Apple laptops.

This came across my newsfeed just now and I quote from the Wall Street Journal:
"Israel-Hamas War Puts Palestinians Back on Arab World's Agenda
Israel’s fierce response to Hamas’s cross-border assault has reinvigorated support for Palestinians in the Arab world and stirred popular anger—not just at Israel and the U.S., but also at Arab governments. #press "
^^ This presents an argument that Hamas already won the war. The main Hamas objective was to put the kibosh on the Abraham Accord, which caused Arab states to basically throw Palestine under the bus.
Anybody throwing Palestine under the bus is gonna need a bigger bus.
Wall Street Journal's Joanna Stern (@joannastern) does a great job explaining the current state of EV charging in America. Basically, not great. That's a big problem for EV adoption as many people are concerned about range anxiety and where and how to charge. There's a lot of work to do.

The Wall Street Journal is claiming that Iran backed the Hamas attack according to Hamas official. No other (reputable) outlet has backed that claim, and both US and Israel say there’s no evidence. Iran has also denied responsibility.
While it may yet turn out the evidence comes out, but why is the WSJ pushing this story on such thin evidence? I honestly thought the WSJ took the news side seriously.

The #WSJ article about the #Writers Strike leaves me to infer that writers will get more money but there will be fewer writers, and jobs, thereby preserving high incomes for the studio execs at the expense of writers and consumers. That places striking writers alongside execs in the same little club of people who are out to do what is best for them. Programming descreases. Number employed as writers decreases. Execs keep their money.
Not good.

@JacquelynGill - Settle in for a Sunday Junk Science take-down!
In this opinion piece, Milloy’s opinion gets an F in accuracy, but it's an absolute master-class in denialist propaganda. He employs the classic tactic of discrediting experts with what seem to be reasonable, obvious statements. They’re superficial and easy to discredit, but the point is to hijack the narrative.
The #WSJ opinion pages remain a den of denial.
They're owned by the Murdoch media empire, after all.
#ClimateDeniers are loud, but in fact
"Most Americans say they know we’re facing a monumental climate threat. They just need to be convinced that other people tend to feel exactly the same way and that they have the power to do something about it."
If you still read and/or pay for the #WSJ, consider the fact the its editorial board just wrote "303 Creative v. Elenis Is a Victory for Free Speech and Pluralism: The Supreme Court supports the right of a business to dissent from dominant cultural views."
The idea that anti-discrimination and equality for all is merely a "cultural view" rather than an ideal literally expressed in the very Constitution and laws, is offensive. The white patriarchal theocratic gaslighting is loathsome.

The GOP fringe imposes incredible discipline on their leaders. Take all the nonsense about "woke capitalism": on the one hand, it's absurd to call union-busting, tax-dodging, worker-screwing companies "woke" (even if they sell Pride flags a couple of weeks a year).
But on the other hand? The GOP leadership have actually *declared war* on the biggest corporations in America, to the point that the *#WSJ* says that "Republicans and Big Business broke up":

Inside Wagner, Russia’s Secret War Company
The Wall Street Journal’s latest documentary “Shadow Men: Inside Russia’s Secret War Company” goes deep inside the lethal global expansion of the Russian private military company Wagner — tracing the group's evolution from a small, guns-for-hire operation into a sprawling network of businesses that has been active on four continents.
The tacit social contract between the #WSJ and its readers is this: the editorial page is for ideology, and the news section is for reality. Money talks and bullshit walks - and reality's well-known anticapitalist bias means that hewing too closely to ideology will make you broke, and thus unable to push your ideology.

Is Apple Stealing Tech from Smaller Companies?
Smaller rivals say meeting with Apple ended with the tech giant releasing products that resemble their own. Some say Apple used the U.S. patent system to avoid having to pay for using their technology. Apple says it doesn’t steal technology and plays by the rules
One Piece - The Cross Guild, with Buggy as the symbolic figurehead that the world sees, has taken out a popular Vice Admiral in the Navy. Which is a huge deal.
But, back on the new lead ship (that was designed with either Buggy or ICP in mind) was revealed and the two real brains removed Buggy's head to talk strategy. That's when Buggy actually went behind them and convinced the full crew to start searching for the One Piece.
Buggy is a fool & a tool, but he knows how to rally a crowd.

Mashle: Magic and Muscles - We're about to see Mash face off vs Innocent Zero. We see Mash snap IZ's magic wand and punches IZ so hard that their neck snaps!
But they survive and enter a new form.
It's like a JRPG villain.
I can't wait to see how Mash handles this next, with his fists.

But once the inflation hawks started going on national TV, holding flashlights under their chins and intoning "Inflaaaaaaaation," all that died.
A year later, even the *#WSJ* has to admit "Businesses are using a rare opportunity to boost their profit margins":

@georgetakei I'm not saying the #WSJ is a ridiculous scumbag. But had it been less busy blaring out its anti-progessive agenda, it might have had a chance to run a real investigative story on the instability of #SVB's finances before the bank collapsed.
Diamonds-to-donuts — #TuckerCarlson with run with this lede; it gives him the opp to revive "Go Woke, Go Broke" and polish Daddy Rupert's #WSJ-owning knob simultaneously.
@selfagency @dictvm "[…] has stabilized itself financially and recently attracted new deals. #Shohat didn’t specify how many customers #NSO Group currently has but said it was around a few dozen"
…imagine how horrible these dozens of "customers" are. #WSJ continues to be a mockery of journalistic integrity, especially around #Israel.
Can someone please find out who was responsible at WSJ for writing that headline with “Are There Too Many Asians?” People have to be held accountable for these stupid stunts.
