November 28th, 2024Via: Real Investment Advice:
Record numbers of US executives are selling shares in their companies, as corporate insiders from Goldman Sachs to Tesla and even Donald Trump’s own media group cash in on the stock market surge that has followed his election victory.
The rate of so-called insider sales has hit a record high for any quarter in two decades, according to VerityData. The sales, by executives at companies in the Wilshire 5000 index, include one-off profit-taking transactions as well as regular sales triggered by executives’ automatic trading plans. The Wilshire 5000 is one of the broadest indices of US companies.
Trying to Solve Fusion Power Generation with AI
November 26th, 2024
Via: The Chemical Engineer:
FUSION energy development is locked in step with artificial intelligence (AI), according to the findings of a new survey into how companies are using it to rapidly iterate their technology.
There’s a well-worn putdown that nuclear fusion has struggled to shake: that the technology is only 30 years from commercial application, just as it was three decades ago. This could be set to change with a report from the US Clean Air Task Force describing how fusion developers are using AI and high-performance computing (HPC) to accelerate design, materials selection, and control systems in a bid to bring an end to this alleged Sisyphean task.
“Artificial intelligence is advancing at an unprecedented rate, driving demand for clean firm power,” said Sehila Gonzalez de Vicente, global director of Fusion Energy at the US Clean Air Task Force. “Fusion energy has the potential to help meet that demand with a stable, emissions-free power source that can operate around the clock. We see a unique opportunity for these technologies to progress hand in hand, with AI helping accelerate fusion’s development while fusion provides the clean energy necessary to sustain AI energy demand. This symbiotic relationship could be transformative for technological innovation and the climate.”

Arrest Warrants Issued by International Criminal Court for Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas Military Chief Mohammed Deif
November 25th, 2024“International law is that law which the wicked do not obey and the righteous do not enforce.”
—Abba Eban, Israeli diplomat and politician
Good luck with that.
Via: France24:
The International Criminal Court (ICC) earned Israel’s ire with its controversial decision to issue arrest warrants for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant for crimes allegedly committed in the Gaza Strip as part of the Israeli offensive in response to the deadly Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023.
The ICC said in its statement there were “reasonable grounds to believe” that Netanyahu and Gallant had committed war crimes and crimes against humanity, notably by “using starvation as a method of warfare” and “intentionally” targeting civilians. Hamas military chief Mohammad Deif, for his part, was accused of committing crimes against humanity including murder, torture and rape.
Netanyahu immediately rejected the ICC decision against him and Gallant as “anti-Semitic”.
Trump Vows New Canada, Mexico, China Tariffs that Threaten Global Trade
November 25th, 2024Do you need any electronics, mobile phones, computers, displays, or any other things not made in the U.S.?
Even if companies were to capitulate and build factories in the U.S. (some will, most won’t) it’s not going to happen in time.
Via: Reuters:
President-elect Donald Trump on Monday pledged big tariffs on the United States’ three largest trading partners – Canada, Mexico and China – detailing how he will implement campaign promises that could trigger trade wars.
Trump, who takes office on Jan. 20, 2025, said he would impose a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico until they clamp down on drugs, particularly fentanyl, and migrants crossing the border, in a move that would appear to violate a free-trade deal.
Trump also outlined “an additional 10% tariff, above any additional tariffs” on China, in some of his most specific comments on how he will implement his economic agenda since winning the Nov. 5 election on promises to “put America first”.
NIH Chief Admits COVID Global Health Initiatives Were “Completely Made Up;” Reveals COVID Vaccines Don’t “Stop You From Getting COVID”

No.

Raja Cholan, Chief of the Health Data Standards Branch at the U.S. National Library of Medicine for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has raised eyebrows with his candid remarks on COVID vaccines, global health strategies, and their broader implications.
Cholan admitted he has chosen not to receive the latest COVID vaccine boosters, citing mixed evidence of their efficacy: “I haven’t gotten the latest COVID shots, and I’m not going to… there’s mixed evidence about if it really does anything.” He also expressed concerns over the risks the vaccine poses to younger individuals, saying, “For people that are 30 or under, it really increases your risk for heart conditions. The data does show that… I’m close enough to 30 to where I don’t want to have a heart attack.”
Cholan further questioned the vaccines’ effectiveness, stating, “I don’t even know if these vaccines stop you from getting COVID. They don’t.”
Cholan also linked the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to funding research in Wuhan, China, alleging, “There is some evidence out that the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases… they might have funded Wuhan, a lab in Wuhan, China, to make COVID.” He pointed to Dr. Anthony Fauci’s former role at NIAID, claiming, “That’s where Fauci was the director. Like they might have funded some labs to do vaccine studies and disease, like to prepare for an outbreak.”
The CIA, NSA, and Pokémon Go

“We can rely on good luck to get the data that we need, or we can ‘soft control’ users with gaming or social network incentives to drive them where we want them,” Bustamante said.
In the paper, “Crowd Soft Control: Moving beyond the Opportunistic,” Bustamante and his group designed a way to “soft control” people’s movements by tapping into games or social networking applications. For example, a game might offer extra points if a player visits a certain location in the real world, or it might send a player to a certain location in a virtual scavenger hunt.

Potentially Cancerous New Chemical Found in Tap Water in Tens of Millions of Homes
November 24th, 2024I’m sure it’s just an unfortunate coincidence that millions of people are drinking this…
Via: Daily Mail:
A potentially cancerous chemical has been discovered in drinking water consumed by tens of millions of Americans.
Known as chloronitramide anion, the compound is released when a popular disinfectant called chloramine (a mix of chlorine and ammonia) naturally decomposes.
Around a third of homes in the US are supplied with chloramine-treated water, which is the equivalent of about 113m people.
It’s not clear what effect the new compound has on humans but researchers said its similarity to other toxic chemicals ‘warrants further study to assess its public health risk.’
Florida Surgeon General Says Fluoride Shouldn’t Be Added to Drinking Water: ‘Public Health Malpractice’
November 23rd, 2024Via: Fox 13:
Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo announced new guidelines on Friday, advising that all cities and counties statewide stop adding fluoride to drinking water.
Dr. Ladapo spoke at a news conference in Winter Haven, which made headlines last week after the city announced that fluoride will no longer be added to its water supply by the end of the year.
“It is public health malpractice with the information that we have now to continue adding fluoride to water,” Dr. Ladapo said, mentioning studies that point out the possibility of excessive fluoride exposure causing lower IQ levels and mental health issues among children.
…
Dr. Ladapo’s stance on the issue is in line with that of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Kennedy has said he would recommend removing fluoride from drinking water nationwide.
