“Can I just say fuck AI, fuck AI, fuck AI?” the comedian, actor, and rotating host of The Daily Show asked in his keynote speech during the Class Day celebration on Wednesday. The crowd at Tercentenary Theatre, made up of the graduating Class of 2026 and their friends and families, answered him with a roar of approval.

Existing apps are grandfathered in and there are other exceptions, but in general LLM generated code is not permitted on the Linux app store anymore.

Three of the last 4 quarters have posted negative growth. That has been the agreed upon definition for a recession for decades.

This might sound silly but I'm trying to find the best route. This spring I had to drive from Tucson to Northeast Missouri and we ended up driving through Las Cruces all the way up 54 to Kansas. And let me tell you that is a desolate stretch of road. I've looked at the map several times but can someone tell me if there's a better way to travel other than through New Mexico? I know I can go down through Texas but that adds like 2 hrs onto the trip

This is a flat, substabtial interface with the 10th Amendment's allowance of states to manage and run elections. If a state allows elections such that they aren’t denied on account of race, gender, and people under 18, they can be run however the states deem. Requiring someone to register with the federal government is not a power of Congress

These proposed Office of Management and Budget regulations would render the federal research grant review process opaque

This, along with rules barring collaboration with anybody who has any affiliation with any foreign university, will effectively end the US as a place where scientific research happens. Recovery from that does not happen; the Germans similarly destroyed their research establishment in the early 20th century, and it basically never recovered to anything like what it was.

“Police actually received a letter addressed from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang that was sent to a police station,” Const. Kevin St. Louis told the Immigration and Refugee Board.

“This specific letter outlined essentially their criminal organization, where they talked about having upwards of 1,000 individuals that are willing to carry out these shootings as a part of the group,” he said.

“It also alludes to how every business needs to pay their tax, which I think clearly demonstrates the monetary gain that this group is looking to obtain as a result of these extortions.”

They've got moxy.

Anti-voter law was among the most restrictive in the United States, and placed unconstitutional burdens on voters

CONCORD, N.H. - Last night, the federal court in New Hampshire struck down the state’s anti-voter law enacted in 2024, declaring it unconstitutional. The law, known as HB 1569, created some of the strictest registration requirements in the nation and, among other things, required documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration.

[...]

According to the Court’s decision, the law "constitutes an unjustifiable burden on the right to vote in violation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments,” “does little, if anything, to further the state’s interests,” and also “violates voters’ rights to procedural due process.”
[...] HB 1569 required documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration — documents like a passport or birth certificate, which many people do not have or cannot easily access — making it materially harder, if not impossible, for thousands of New Hampshire citizens to exercise their right to vote.

The Court’s decision is in line with other federal courts that have weighed in on this issue previously. For instance, federal courts struck down a similar Kansas law, which imposed a proof of citizenship requirement for state and federal elections, as violating both the U.S. Constitution and National Voter Registration Act of 1993.
