Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, whoβs been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. β€οΈ π§π·
What words to hear on my 20th anniversary of arriving in the UK! I can tell her exactly why Poland has done so well - the EU had paid a very large part in it ! Why are they clapping.

This exchange is so very telling.
Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:
"I never heard of you. I picked you. Youβre not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"
As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

Jamie Foxx is recovering after an incident at a restaurant during his birthday dinner on Friday left him with injuries.
1) This feels like really good, bold public interest journalism by the BBC!
2) If you were around social media / online publishing circa 2014 and followed The Social Chain, it was soooo baffling to watch his reinvention as a business guru.

If you have a website, a Substack, a YouTube channel, Twitch, IG, FB, or newsletter, you have a vested interest in moving over to Bluesky where your external links aren't throttled. Elon isn't looking out for you; he's looking out for Elon.

BBC headline: Logan Paul accused of misleading fans over crypto investments
For several months, Paul refused to talk to the BBC about our investigation. Then he appeared to relent, inviting us to interview him at his gym in Puerto Rico. However, when our crew arrived, a Logan Paul lookalike turned up in the YouTuberβs place, shortly followed by a crowd shouting abuse about the BBC. Minutes after abandoning the interview, we received a lawyerβs letter on behalf of Paul, warning us of the possible consequences if we published our findings.
At the gym, we noticed a strange atmosphere - with a suspicious number of his own cameras pointed at us. Paulβs assistant insisted our cameras should be recording from the moment the star entered the room, because of his strict schedule and timekeeping. Then things became even stranger. Instead of Logan Paul, a lookalike arrived and sat down in front of our reporter, Matt Shea, and began impersonating the YouTuber. We called him out and began complaining to Paulβs assistant, asking whether the real Logan Paul would be coming. At that moment, a group of people suddenly appeared, apparently from nowhere, wielding banners and shouting that the BBC were βpaedophilesβ. We had flown all that way just to be trolled.
