Tall poppy syndrome in full effect. People like this writer hold Ireland back. ‘Notions’
John Collison’s analysis of Ireland’s problems is a little naive irishtimes.com/business/2025…

Encroyable
The Blindsight device from Neuralink will enable even those who have lost both eyes and their optic nerve to see.
Provided the visual cortex is intact, it will even enable those who have been blind from birth to see for the first time.
To set expectations correctly, the vision will be at first be low resolution, like Atari graphics, but eventually it has the potential be better than natural vision and enable you to see in infrared, ultraviolet or even radar wavelengths, like Geordi La Forge.
Much appreciated, @US_FDA!

Lex stands out amongst modern media
I would love to do a podcast with @KamalaHarris and @GovTimWalz.
I think it would be a great conversation.

Potentially best tweet of all time

This video is reversed. You can clearly tell by paying attention to the person behind Kim at 5 seconds into the video, who’s walking backwards.

Interesting read on the IRA’s impact on Texas solar. I once read that if Texas was covered in solar panels it would be way more than enough to power the entire US. The future is solar! open.substack.com/pub/dougle…

@AirCanada I have called aeroplan x5 times in the last 24hrs, and the robot service keeps hanging up on me. Can you please have them call me? DM for details.

Funny to hear Tim be nervous like this, in hindsight of his successes.
Sorry folks, world has gone mad. I’m out
Welcome to @elonmusk’s Twitter where literal slurs are allowed to trend.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a satirical tweet from a parody account.
"Anita B. Etin" is not a real person. The name is a play on words that sounds out "Anita be eating." There is no such thing as a PhD in "Body Positive Medicine," and neither of the books listed in the account's bio exist.

Scary thought
As I've been pointing out, this is the 'N^2' or "No-Name" Revolution; a world wide low-grade low-intensity set of revolts. The "Mostly Peaceful George Floyd Race Riots", the "Mostly Peaceful 1/6 Insurrection." etc. Let's stop pretending it's all unrelated:
