NBC-DFW BURIES THE LEDE: Man released on bond, accused in plot to attack Texas Capitol building, DPS says.

Unless they made it to seven paragraphs into the article, readers wouldn’t have spotted this detail:

Arrest documents further state that [40-year-old Benny Caldera] told his friend that he was angry at AIPAC (American Israeli Public Affairs Committee) and that “these people have to be exterminated.”

HEY, BIG SPENDER: South Korea to invest up to $200B in Alaska LNG pipeline, US power plants, Trump announces.

The investment also includes a natural gas plant in Texas and eight new nuclear power plants across the country, Trump said during remarks in the Oval Office.

Trump said the deal came as part of a trade agreement between South Korea and the U.S. in which the U.S. would lower the Asian country’s tariff rate to 15 percent in exchange for hundreds of billions of dollars in investment.

Trump particularly touted the Alaska pipeline investment, known as Alaska LNG because it would transport liquefied natural gas, as allowing the U.S. to export more gas.

“The United States is already the largest natural gas producer and exporter in the world, and this pipeline will help us expand those exports even further,” he said.

Energy dominance, indeed.

FROM SUMMER GRAYLING:  True Colours.

Jan Van Der Vaart is a legend. The focus of his magical Talent is pain, and he’s spent years in the military, then as a mercenary, making terrorists, cartels, and governments fear him. Finally, he carved out a safe haven for other Talents, and tried to retire… until one last job, cracking a black lab snatching Talents off the streets, went sideways. He’s left staggering down a rainy coastal highway, thumb out and hoping he’ll catch a lift before the kill team realizes they missed…

Aurelia Brinati is on the run. Having escaped five years of hell as an unwilling lab rat, she has a stolen car and a plan to hide from pursuers by taking passage on a cargo ship headed anywhere else in the world. When she picks up a stray sailor headed the same way, she rapidly discovers she’s out of her depths… and safe in the heart of the storm.

The entire world fears him… except her. Powers are gathering to recapture Aurelia, but they’d best beware. Jan and his friends will do whatever it takes to keep her safe… whether it’s murder, mayhem, or last-minute shopping runs to find something called cream of tartar for her snickerdoodle cookies.

STEALING PEOPLE’S WORK IS UNACCEPTABLE, WHETHER YOU USE AI TO ALTER IT, OR YOU ALTER IT YOURSELF:  Untouchable but real.

No, not all uses of AI are theft, anymore than your learning from published works, then writing your own is theft. BUT this case clearly is, and yes, it’s wrong. I have problems with the copyright law in the US because frankly my kids can make their own money and my grandkids, if and when, ditto. But knowing how long it takes for a career in the arts to pay at all I have to endorse some copyright so the creator (and his/her long suffering spouse) get some compensation for the years of nothing in the dark. Stealing people’s IP outright is wrong. Just wrong. Even when you don’t falsify that person’s pov.

YEAH. NO PAUSES:  Now let’s talk about “the pause” Trust me bro we don’t want to squelch AI forever bro it would just be a couple years bro while we get alignment right bro. Wait, where have I heard this song before? Oh yeah. “Two weeks to flatten the curve.” The “pause” rhetoric is meant to create the institutional machinery for permanent suppression and shift the Overton window towards public acceptance of same. It’s a dishonest move from people pretending they’re willing to accept a future return to pre-“pause” liberty when that is exactly the opposite of what they intend. When s camel tries to get its nose into your tent, the right thing to do is kick it In the snoot. Hard.
