🚨 OpenAI's head of Robotics resigned because the company is building lethal AI weapons with NO human input required.

> Read that again. Lethal. Autonomy. Without. Human. Authorization.

> The person who built the robots is saying she quit because there are no guardrails on who they kill.

This is the same company that won't let ChatGPT say a swear word.

They put safety filters on your prompts but none on their kill chain.

I resigned from OpenAI. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn’t an easy call. AI has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I’m proud of what we built together.

"The price of oil has spiked 35 percent in a week, the most ever. Expectations are that it will go higher, potentially devastating the global economy. Markets shuddered. Savings were lost. Prices that many could already not afford headed up again.

Why?

Because of the impulses of a single man."

@ZackPolanski this is a thing of beauty, the Northern Ireland comment at the end absolutely blew any argument she had out of the water, first class. Quite frankly the comment that all wars we have been involved in since the second world war is the only reason I can talk shit about the government then I would definitely like to understand that in a little more detail, because it seems like she may have been trying to shut him down with the single worst strawman argument I have ever heard...

In 2025, I found 3 popular apps leaking sensitive user data thanks to simple security bugs. In this *very* deep-dive for subscribers, this is how I use network analysis tools (like Burp) to understand how apps and websites work & share your data — and how you can, too!

I explain how to get started with Burp and similar browser tools, we'll explore API basics, how to understand network requests, and how to get started. I'll also include examples for you to follow along.

How a Tiny, Inexperienced Firm Landed a $1.3 Billion #Detention Deal To hold 5,000 human beings.

by Samantha Michaels, November+December 2025 Issue

Excerpt: "When the Trump administration awarded a $1.26 billion contract this summer to build and operate a new tent city #detention center in #Texas, it made headlines, and not just because the facility, located at the #FortBliss Army base, was expected to be the biggest of its kind in the country. The company that won the job, #AcquisitionLogistics, was so small it operated out of a single-family home in #RichmondVA. Almost nobody had heard of it. 'A random house…just won $1.26 billion from #ICE,' wrote the New Republic.

"Whereas many companies with ICE contracts had long histories with immigrant detention, including private prison giants such as GEO Group, Acquisition Logistics had no prior experience in incarceration. Previously, its biggest federal contract was $16 million, and CEO #KenWagner is circling retirement at 77. Over the summer, the company’s website was inaccessible to the public, with the header 'Site maintenance in progress.' Archived screenshots showed the firm specializes in supply chain management. Could it safely operate a 5,000-bed detention facility?"

Multiple news outlets are reporting a US attack on an Iranian #desalination plant.
If verified, this violates international law protecting #water systems during wars, and it sets a dangerous precedent, given intense dependence of Gulf countries on desalination.
