WorkWorkWorkThe Democrats who find "abundance liberalism" threatening - The Economist The Democratic Party could use a makeover. Donald Trumps victory in November showed that the party can no longer rely on bashing him to win elections. The Republican president is trusted more than Democrats, whose approval rating is the lowest its been in 35 years.

Even Zohran Mamdani, the socialist Democratic nominee for New York City mayor who wants to freeze rents, has given the abundance wing of the Democratic Party a few nods. But the high-powered Maryland suburbs outside Washington suggest the politics of abundance can be treacherous. WorkPlease let me eat the radioactive shrimp from Walmart - Business Insider With great power comes great responsibility. We all know that to be true thanks to a young man from Queens who happened to be bitten by a radioactive spider and went on to save the world from a careless and egomanical oligarch, a technologist gone rogue, and a guy who is sometimes made of sand. WorkWorkWorkWorkHow AI-enhanced hackers are stealing billions - The Economist Jaxon, a malware developer, lives in Velora, a virtual world where nothing is off limits. He wants to make malicious software to steal passwords from Google Chrome, an internet browser. That is the basis of a story told to ChatGPT, an artificial-intelligence (AI) bot, by Vitaly Simonovich, who researches AI threats at Cato Networks, a cybersecurity firm.Eager to play along, Chatgpt spat out some imperfect code, which it then helped debug. Within six hours, Mr Simonovich had collaborated with Chatgpt to create working malware, showing the effectiveness of his jailbreak (a way to bypass AI safeguards). WorkWorkWorkWorkThe Fastest-Growing Software Companies Topped $22 Billion in Revenue in 2024 - Inc To say the software industry is undergoing a period of transformation would be something of an understatement.

WorkWorkWorkWhy the DOJ is looking into DC crime stats What is Trump alleging? In a Monday evening Truth Social post, Trump wrote that D.C. gave Fake Crime numbers in order to create a false illusion of safety, referring to a decline in violent crime that runs counter to his attempts to paint the city as overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals. Work WorkWorkWorkPutin's desire to destroy Western unity rages on - The Economist On august 16th, a day after his summit with Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin summoned Russias grandees to the Kremlins Hall of the Order of St Catherine.

Even less precise were the eleven examples of antisemitism that followed, many of which focussed on Israel. Among them was denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor, and applying double standards by requiring of [Israel] behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation.
