Another telescope controversy is brewing, this time on #Maui
The U.S. Air Force wants to build seven more telescopes on the summit of #Haleakala to help better track the growing number of objects whizzing about in #space.
But the proposal, unveiled in public meetings on Maui for the first time last week, ran into a buzz saw of resistance similar to the ongoing opposition to the planned Thirty Meter Telescope on #Maunakea.
#AI "wants to please the user," #MichaelCohen said today in court. And in so doing, he raised the main problem with #LLMs. They are not designed to give you the answers you need, but the answers you want. And if that doesn't alarm you, then you're part of the problem.
Iran blamed the US for the helicopter crash and Raisi's death.
Former Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif stated:
“The United States bears responsibility for the tragedy associated with the crash of the President’s helicopter. They banned the sale of aircraft and spare parts to Iran, despite the decision of the International Court of Justice.” #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#Iran#BreakingNews#Breaking#USA
#Wikileaks#Assange#PressFreedom#Media#Journalism#USA#UK: "To my mind, Julian Assange is in some ways recognizably a journalist. He’s also a publisher, an entrepreneur, an activist, a whistleblower, an information anarchist and a hacker. That’s true of many of this new breed of net warriors.
But in the work we did together when I was editor of The Guardian and he was editor of WikiLeaks we collaborated on a series of groundbreaking stories which were absolutely journalistic.
However, to many journalists Assange is not a proper “journalist,” and they can’t really see what his fate has to do with theirs. I think that’s a mistake.
This week Assange may learn his fate when judges in the UK High Court consider final representations from lawyers on both sides over the bid to extradite him to the US — where he could face a lengthy spell in a maximum security prison."
