WOW. Students at Ross S. Sterling High School (@GCCISD) are PROTESTING against their school district, demanding JUSTICE after 16-year-old Andrew Meismer was stabbed to death during class. Students claim that Aundre Matthews, who was charged with Andrew's m*rder, had a history of disciplinary action which the school repeatedly ignored. They say Andrew's m*rder was PREVENTABLE.

Introducing NitroGen, an open-source foundation model trained to play 1000+ games: RPG, platformer, battle royale, racing, 2D, 3D, you name it! We are on a quest for general-purpose embodied agents that master not only the real world physics, but also all possible physics across a multiverse of simulations. We found that our GR00T N1.5 architecture, originally designed for robotics, can be adapted easily to play lots of games with wildly different mechanics. Our recipe is simple and bitter lesson-pilled: (1) a 40K+ hour, high-quality dataset of public in-the-wild gameplay; (2) a highly capable foundation model for continuous motor control; (3) a Gym API that wraps any game binary to run rollouts. Our data curation is a lot of fun: it turns out that gamers love to show off their skills by overlaying real-time gamepad control on a video stream. So we train a segmentation model to detect and extract those gamepad displays and turn them into expert actions. We then mask out that region to prevent the model from exploiting a shortcut. During training, a variant of GR00T N1.5 learns to map from 40K hours of pixels to actions through diffusion transformers. NitroGen is only the beginning, and there's a long way to hill-climb on the capability. We intentionally focus only on the System 1 side: the "gamer instinct" of fast motor control. We open-source *everything* for you to tinker: pretrained model weights, the entire action dataset, code, and a whitepaper with solid details. Today, robotics is a superset of hard AI problems. Tomorrow, it might become a subset, a dot in the much larger latent space of embodied AGI. Then you just prompt and "ask for" a robot controller. That might be the end game (pun intended). NitroGen is co-led by our brilliant minds: Loic Magne, Anas Awadalla, Guanzhi Wang. It's a multi-institutional collaboration. Check out Guanzhi's technical deep dive thread and repo links below!

This is the story of how reading “The Selfish Gene” when I was around 15 changed my career decades later. It’s a terrific book. But beyond its substance, it changed my view of what science can be. It showed me that there are simple but profound ideas waiting to be discovered. I’d thought of the frontier of science as necessarily esoteric, but the book proved otherwise. Richard Dawkins’s writing also showed me that it’s possible to explain novel and profound ideas in a way that even a child (me) could understand them. When I grew up and became a researcher, I never stopped thinking about this. I began to gravitate toward the simplest questions within my areas of expertise, rather than the hardest, contrary to the norm in science. And I taught myself how to communicate my ideas to as broad an audience as possible. Unfortunately, the peer review process heavily penalizes this approach, because the value system prioritizes abstruseness, when ideally it should be the opposite. But no matter — I found that simpler ideas, when they do get published, are much more widely read, which made it all worthwhile. Besides, pushing to make ideas as simple and as simply communicated as possible often made them *better ideas*, more robust and widely applicable than initially anticipated. Aspirations should be balanced with an awareness of one’s limitations. Not everyone can be as successful as Dawkins; I realized that I couldn’t count on my ideas being so powerful that they would spread on their own (fittingly, the term “meme” was coined in The Selfish Gene!) So I’ve tried to put as much effort into spreading ideas as I do into generating and explaining them. That’s a topic I’ve written about here before and probably will again.

BREAKING: Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson exposes the true level of fraud in Minnesota. "Every day we look under a rock and find a new $50 million fraud scheme." "[Minnesota] is an outlier in a bad way. You don't see fraud on this scale in other states." "Traditional Medicare/Medicaid fraud is people overbilling. Upcoding. Instead of billing for a service with a relatively modest reimbursement, you claim you're providing a higher dollar value service. You're maybe making 20% more - padding your bills." "What I think is unique to Minnesota is that's not what we're looking at. What we're seeing is programs that are just entirely fraudulent. These aren't companies that are providing some services but overbilling Medicare and Medicaid, these are companies that are providing NO services. They're essentially shell companies created to defraud the program. That's unique to Minnesota."

Elon Musk: Never trust a cynic, because most people are kind of medium good ❤️ “Never trust a cynic. The reason is, that cynics excuse their own bad behavior by saying everyone does it, because they're cynical. So I always be, it's a red flag if someone's a cynic, a true cynic. But this is an important point that I think people listening should bear in mind. If somebody is cynical, meaning that they see bad behavior in everyone, it's easy for them to excuse their own bad behavior by saying, well, everyone does it, but it's not true. Most people are kind of medium good.”

The Northern Virginia Justice System are Liberal Illegal Alien Sympathizers who put anarchists above public safety. Marvin Morales-Ortez - an illegal alien from El Salvador - who committed homicide a day after being released from jail by yet another liberal judge. He was in jail for brandishing a gun and assaulting and injuring someone. Since 2020 he has been charged with SEVEN crimes in Fairfax County - one of which was First Degree Murder. This is just outside of DC - an illegal alien enclave protected by woke Liberal judges and prosecutors. https://t.co/xhpuFaKAwt

🚨🇩🇪 GERMANY’S “WELCOME CULTURE” COLLAPSES: MAJORITY NOW WANT IMMIGRATION HALTED & DEPORTATIONS RAMPED UP A new poll just dropped, and it’s a political earthquake: a majority of Germans now support an immigration moratorium and mass deportations. The poll shows that 81% of Germans state that illegal immigration was “far too high” or “rather too high” over the last 10 years, and only 5% view the levels as appropriate. Another 75% say illegal migration has been bad for Germany. Yes, in Germany… the same country that once opened its doors to over a million refugees in 2015, which was promoted by Angela Merkel, her CDU, and the left. However, after years of failed integration, rising crime headlines, housing shortages, and mounting public frustration, the mood has flipped hard. Nowadays, 53% of Germans favor a total moratorium on all new immigration and immigration overall, as well as the return of a large number of migrants to their homelands, otherwise known by many on the right as “remigration” or mass deportation. It’s official… the once-celebrated “welcome culture” has turned into: enough is enough. Berlin’s political class can’t keep ignoring this shift, because the public clearly isn’t.

Elon Musk painting the ultimate post-scarcity future: AI + robots → unlimited production → universal high income → money becomes meaningless → we design dream homes on demand, travel in tunnel EVs or electric VTOLs, and live for fulfillment, not survival. As he mentioned it is straight out of Iain M. Banks’ Culture series, I would read them all to understand the future. But start here: Consider Phlebas: an epic space opera showing the Culture at war, full of pirates, megastructures, and a glimpse of what true abundance looks like (even if seen through an enemy’s eyes). This is the future we’re building and will arrive at.
