Dr. Josephine Baker fought for milk testing in lower Manhattan over a century ago, where babies were 7 times more likely to die than WWI US soldiers in the trenches. Milk was often adulterated with chalk and germ-y water. Today the FDA stopped testing milk due to lack of staff. Shame on you, Trump.

REACTION SPEED - Wait. Did he just say *Wompty-Dompty-Dom Centre*? SUGGESTION - He did it! He said *Wompty-Dompty-Dom Centre* like it's the most natural thing in the world.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

Rarely discussed perspective by @vladvexler.bsky.social on how Trump's personality disorder affects the Ukraine war. If seen through this lens he claims, Putin is a source of narcissistic supply to the president. Trump submits to Putin to bask in the perceived glory of a real dictator.
