Oh! A Korean man visualized his life through his Google Maps location history. He mapped out a year of his travels — and there was almost nothing on it except one endless route: home → work → home → work. 😪

Every now and then, the route changed. But the excitement didn’t last long: those rare detours turned out to be business trips.

The author didn’t even bother explaining anything and simply captioned the map: “Homeworkhomeworkhomework…”

Ehud Barak called Netanyahu's escalation with Türkiye over the Syria airbase strike "reckless and stupid" with "a strong political smell of manufacturing security anxieties ahead of elections." "Türkiye is not Iran or Assad's Syria.

There is no strategic problem with Türkiye that cannot be resolved through discreet contacts coordinated with the United States.

Netanyahu has completely gone off the rails."

Barak argued the issue should be postponed until after elections, saying Netanyahu is focused on survival maneuvers rather than Israel's security.

Absolutely insane stat: 15 U.S. colleges now cost more than $100,000 per year. That’s $400,000+ for a four-year degree. Students are not getting anywhere near $400,000 worth of value from these schools. Higher education is the most overpriced product in America.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) will announce new stringent regulations on data centers. Shapiro plans to sign an executive order that blocks any new data center project in the state unless it meets new guidelines that seek to limit electricity and water usage.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro:

"From Archbald to Montgomery County to all across Pennsylvania, to your comments, texts, calls, and letters to my office, I’ve heard you loud and clear: Pennsylvanians do not want AI data centers in their communities that would raise their utility costs and pollute their resources.

It’s my responsibility as your Governor to listen and take action accordingly.

With today’s Executive Order, we’re doing just that — implementing strict requirements that hold AI data center developers accountable and giving Pennsylvanians the opportunity to make decisions about these projects in their own communities."
