Results so stunningly clear they inspired this classic xkcd (xkcd.com/2400/):
Good morning with good news: Japan, world's 4th largest economy, cut its fossil fuel generated electricity from 73.1% in June 2018 to 54.8% in June 2025. That's 18.3 points drop or 2.6 points/year! It could be near zero FF by 2045. Gas fell from 38.1% to 27.4% Coal fell from 30% to 20% #energysky

Mensis September was originally the seventh of ten months on the ancient Roman calendar. This mosaic from the mosaic of the months from El Djem, Tunisia, dates to the third century. It depicts two men crushing grapes. Time for vintage! #MosaicMonday

Imagine nuclear battery powered library - just centuries of access to all the books in the world Use one of those crystal lattice storage matrices that never lose data & can never have stuff deleted & you've got yourself a cool device imo
Thanks, another good read, though it's addressing a different question: that of copyright for AI-emitted content and perhaps prompts. I'm concerned with AI-emitted content infringing human-authored works from its training corpus. I claim that depends on how LLMs work internally.

A conversation with friends living in different European countries recently, reflecting on US politics … a disbelief shared between us, that a country that has been a background in our entire lives has descended into chaos, fascism, and oppression, applauded by its many of its citizens

Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
We’ve got to start someplace. I respect Jamie Raskin but his statements indicate the demson are going to capitulate and do nothing.
Each state has a dept of health. For starters they should pool funding and share resources and data.

When Shakespeare's villain says "First, let's kill all the lawyers," it's not a joke - it's because lawyers are society's key defense against tyranny. (Henry VI, Part 2).
New on Patently-O: Prof. Camilla Hrdy @law.rutgers.edu explores the legal battle over AI reverse engineering in OpenEvidence v. Pathway. Can extracting data from a generative AI be legal reverse engineering, or is it trade secret misappropriation? patentlyo.com/patent/2025/...
American federalism goes to work. As RFK Jr. heads down the road of more measles, more COVID-19 and more flu, public health states must develop our own strategies to stay safe.
Yes it was.
Under this standard, every aspect of our economy has national security implications. The conclusion that flows from this, for Trump, is that he should control all aspects of the economy and, hopefully, get a slice of the action, either directly or thru his “protection” racket. Pure Putin.
Given that all tariff cases must go to the Federal Circuit, anyone who wants to avoid the tariffs can presumably sue and win. [Well, at least until the Supreme Court weighs in].
Yikes - - the PTO acting director just sent the chief judge of the PTAB to run ex parte reexams instead. Further evidence she just wants to abolish IPRs, never mind the law? news.bloomberglaw.com/product/blaw...

Happy to have played a role in this, and to see some of the arguments in Matt Seligman's and my brief on behalf of former Republican-appointed judges and officials show up in the court's opinion and in Judge Cunningham's concurrence

I know. Do you think they be able to clean up all the blood in time to open the building the next day?
