Turns out America elected Elon Musk, too
  + stars: | 2024-11-16 | by ( Peter Kafka | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Now that Trump has won, Musk is seemingly attached to him — in public and behind the scenes. At the moment, it also looks like they've elected Elon Musk. And Musk is relentlessly promoting Trump on Twitter, the site he bought in 2022 and renamed X. Related storiesPresident-elect Trump on Elon Musk: "He likes this place. He first floated the idea of having Musk run a government efficiency office in early September, but it wasn't a focus of his rallies and pitches.

What Ukraine Has Lost

What Ukraine Has Lost A drone photograph shows numerous severely damaged buildings with labels highlighting residential buildings, a football field and a high school. This is the first comprehensive picture of where the Ukraine war has been fought and the totality of the destruction. More buildings have been destroyed in Ukraine than if every building in Manhattan were to be leveled four times over. In mid-May, the Russians bombed some towns in northeastern Ukraine so ferociously that one resident said they were erasing streets. “No matter how unpatriotic it may sound, there’s not much future for her in Ukraine,” Ms. Hrushkovska said.

Maps Show Scarce Shelter and Medical Care as Rafah Operation Is UnderwayHundreds of thousands of Gazans have fled the southern region of Rafah over the past week, after Israel has expanded its evacuation orders amid continued bombardment and fierce fighting there. Satellite imagery taken after the May 6 incursion shows extensive new damage to eastern parts of Rafah. Additional damaged buildings were identified in satellite imagery collected from May 5 to May 7. As of Tuesday, new high resolution satellite imagery of the evacuation area in Rafah was not available after May 7.

If Wassily Kandinsky bent the visible world to the whims of his canvas, reducing concert hall scenes to puddles of color and line, Sonia Delaunay seems to have worked the other way around. A fashion and textile designer by trade, the Ukrainian-born Delaunay (1885-1979) filled the world with bold and delightful patterns — with the chevrons and dot grids and floral wiggles of the many scarves and dresses she created in France — then let her paintings reflect the results. Or at least that’s the impression given by the Bard Graduate Center’s “Sonia Delaunay: Living Art,” a playful but rigorous unearthing of 184 garments, artifacts and paintings — most on loan from France — spanning 60 years of Delaunay’s career.

What We Know About the Deaths Near the Gaza Aid ConvoyGazan authorities said that more than 100 people were killed and hundreds more injured in a chaotic scene early Thursday morning in Gaza City, where a crowd gathered around a convoy of trucks carrying desperately needed aid and the Israeli military opened fire. A small number of people may have been struck by aid trucks during the panic, and two Israeli military vehicles are also visible at the scene. Israeli military vehicles Aid convoy AL RASHID Israeli military vehicles Aid convoy AL RASHID Israeli military vehicles Aid convoy AL RASHID Still image of Israeli military drone footageA separate video released by Al Jazeera of the crowd near the aid convoy captures the sound of gunfire and shows multiple tracer rounds, originating from the southwest where an Israeli military base is located. The two tanks visible in the drone video were stationed on Al-Rashid around 250 meters from the base. Aid delivery has also been hampered by the breakdown of civil order as increasingly desperate civilians converge on aid convoys before the trucks can get to distribution centers.

A Summer of Strikes
  + stars: | 2023-09-03 | by ( Molly Cook Escobar | Christine Zhang | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +7 min
A Summer of Strikes Work stoppages in the United States this year could reach heights rarely seen in recent decades. “Those are not just the big strikes that are in the news, but there are many smaller strikes across every industry,” said Kate Bronfenbrenner, a senior lecturer at Cornell University's School of Industrial and Labor Relations. Some, like Dr. Bronfenbrenner, see the resurgence of strikes and union organizing as a lasting trend. Surveys have shown increased public support for unions in recent years, she said, even as private sector union membership remains low. “When you have large strikes that are like waves across the country, they are contagious,” said Dr. Bronfenbrenner.

A theoretical physicist shut down the fears around AI saying it's just a "glorified tape recorder." Michio Kaku said chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT can't even distinguish true from false. An AI godfather also said that fears about AI threatening humanity are "preposterously ridiculous." A theoretical physicist shut down the hype around the dangers of AI saying chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT are just "glorified tape recorders." Yann LeCun, dubbed an AI "godfather" and Meta's chief AI scientist, shared similar sentiments with Kaku saying that fears about AI posing a threat to humanity are "preposterously ridiculous."

New YorkHave you ever pondered the ruff? That snowy circular collar made of starched cambric, fluted and trimmed with lace? During the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras ruffs appeared endlessly in painted portraits, a sort of rose window rendered with Euclidean precision under noble chins. Also called a “millstone collar,” it served up the distinguished head on a pristine plate. To see an actual 17th-century ruff is a treat, and at the Bard Graduate Center it is just one of many wonders.
