The Forgotten Side of Medicine
June 3, 2026
I feel one of the greatest issues in healthcare (which is a reflection of the society at large) is that things are so rushed that there isn't time for doctors to connect with their patients. Because of this, a lot of the most critical parts of medicine get missed, and I've known so many patients who were harmed by the medical system because of the 15 minute visit model.

Few Americans know the history of how Israel's "wag the dog" relationship with the United States developed. Israel's 1967 successful war against its neighbors demonstrated to military planners in Washington how a qualitative edge in weapons could enable a small country to resist much larger and seemingly more powerful adversaries. Israel was largely supplied with French weapons at the time that reportedly out-performed the Russian equipment in the hands of Syria and Egypt.

In a speech given on April 15, at the University of Texas, to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Justice Clarence Thomas explained the meaning of formal equality before the law, saying:
Despite the multiplicity of laws and customs that reeked of bigotry, it was universally believed among those blacks with whom I lived and who had very little or no formal education, that "in God's eyes and under our Constitution we are equal." This was also the case with my nuns [at his grammar school, St. Benedict's]

This is a moment in history that we will remember for a long time to come. Even though we were told over and over again that a deal with Iran was almost "finalized", the truth is that there never was going to be a deal with Iran. It was all smoke and mirrors. The U.S. couldn't give Iran what it was demanding, and Iran simply refused to give the U.S.

The AI boom shares all the risk profiles of previous speculative manias but lacks society-wide benefits while generating fast-metastasizing negative consequences and costs.
The idea that the current bubble in AI data centers is an echo of the railroad-construction bubble of the 1870s is appealing-but only half-right. The completion of the first transcontinental railroad in late 1869 sparked a speculative mania of raising capital to build railroads, which were seen as "can't lose" investments in a technology that lowered transport costs from $1 to ten cents.

Jerome Powell is now warning that the Federal Reserve is undergoing a "stress test" and that political interference threatens public confidence in the institution. He stated that "the public would lose faith" if administrations could remove Fed officials over policy disagreements and argued that democratic institutions can be "torn down all too quickly."

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) is preparing for an onslaught of attacks. On Friday, she announced that she's working to restore enforcement by the office of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). While technically open, the FARA unit, part of the Justice Department, has been largely dormant.

As the United Kingdom and Ukraine push Germany to prepare for war against Russia, we are witnessing the collapse of a reunified Germany. The country is deeply divided into two distinct peoples. Its identity is now in question. The dissolution of the Federal Republic of Germany is now inevitable. Meanwhile, the peace agreement between Washington and Moscow will lead to the annexation of parts of Ukraine and Transnistria by Russia.

There is a strange disconnect developing between financial markets and the average person.
Most people still see the situation with Iran as another distant geopolitical story. It appears on television for a few minutes, disappears behind domestic political news, and then returns a few days later when another headline emerges. Investors, however, are beginning to treat it very differently.

Pourquoi le plan de paix du "faiseur de paix" Kushner est devenu le détonateur d'une nouvelle guerre au Moyen-Orient.
Il est entré à la Maison-Blanche pour conclure des "accords du siècle", et il a déclenché une guerre qui a fermé le détroit d'Ormuz. Les milliards de pétrodollars dépensés par les princes du Golfe pour les services de Jared Kushner n'étaient qu'un simple ticket pour le premier rang d'une catastrophe géopolitique.

La fragilité du secteur économique de l'IA générative - dépendances à des chaînes d'approvisionnement sursollicitées, dépenses énormes, débouchés inconnus, productivité douteuse - est avérée. Survivra-t-il à la crise financière liée au crédit privé et au choc pétrolier suite à la fermeture du détroit d'Ormuz ? Et si oui, sous quelle forme ? S'il n'est pas possible d'énoncer des certitudes, certaines contradictions déjà à l'œuvre s'apprêtent à éclater au grand jour dans les prochains mois, qui aboutiront nécessairement à des reconfigurations massives de la production et de l'usage de l'IA générative.

AI ha già ridisegnato la mappa dei conflitti globali. La vera sfida è la costruzione di una architettura di amministrazione adatto per la velocità e la complessità di questa trasformazione.
Il doppio uso come condizione strutturale
Quando nel 2011 il matematico e imprenditore Eric Schmidt, allora alla guida di Google, descrisse l'intelligenza artificiale come "la tecnologia più trasformativa che l'umanità abbia mai sviluppato", pochi avrebbero immaginato con quale velocità quella previsione si sarebbe tradotta in dottrina militare.

Il corridoio di Zangezur cambia nome e padrone. Il Caucaso meridionale esce dall'orbita russa, l'Iran perde il transito verso il Caspio, Pechino registra il nuovo nodo regolatorio occidentale lungo la propria via centrale. Cronaca e lettura di un atto che ridisegna l'Eurasia.

On May 24, Iran rejected President Trump's latest fake peace deal, confirming that he had misrepresented what Iran had agreed to and that the two sides are still very far apart, on nuclear enrichment, on control of the Strait of Hormuz, on peace in Palestine and Lebanon, and on lifting US sanctions, paying war reparations and Iran's $100 billion in frozen assets.
