He said, "The AI race is definitely an energy race, and one of the things that we've said is that in order to win the AI race, you must win the power race." Those risks grow dramatically if Democrats take control of Capitol Hill in the midterms or the White House in 2028 because to get what America needs requires a not-so-green agenda. Lord drives this home: "Natural gas is the only fuel type that can be deployed fast enough, scaled large enough and still remain affordable for it to even become a viable option for data centers." Deploying wind farms or solar arrays sounds noble, but they can't match the reliability of gas turbines that spin up in minutes, not months, keeping lights on…...

The report identifies a critical dynamic reshaping the industry: AI doesn't simply replicate human intelligence " it excels dramatically in some functions while failing unpredictably in others. This "jagged frontier" creates both opportunity and risk in safety-critical transportation systems. AI adoption remains fragmented: Most applications across network planning, autonomous driving, demand simulation, and crowd monitoring are pilots, not scaled systems Human-AI pairing is safety-critical: In some applications,…...

Krill also play a major starring role in regulating the global climate by carrying carbon into deep ocean layers. If you get rid of them, this will cause real-life damage in ways that can't just be quickly or easily reversed. So why is this happening now. Because China sees Antarctica as a resource to be taken and exploited, not something to be protected or preserved for everybody in the world. And those same environmental activists who scream at Americans for driving pickup trucks suddenly get really quiet when the destruction is happening under a Chinese flag. Chinese fishing firm Kaichuang reports nearly 200% increase in krill catch in Antarctica with profits jumping 270% Absolutely disgusting they are taking essential food from the…...

7+ min ago (605+ words) The recent launch by Amazon Web Services (AWS) of "frontier agents" " a new generation of autonomous AI tools " may carry implications far beyond software development. While AWS introduces them primarily as coding, security and DevOps assistants, retail businesses could quickly find uses for such technology in e-commerce infrastructure, store systems and supply-chain platforms. At the heart of the announcement is a new class of AI described by AWS as "autonomous, massively scalable agents that work for hours " without requiring intervention." The first three agents unveiled are: Kiro autonomous agent (virtual developer), AWS Security Agent (virtual security engineer) and AWS DevOps Agent (operations / infrastructure agent). Unlike traditional AI tools that assist with isolated tasks, these frontier agents are designed to take a high-level goal " for example, "build this feature," "secure this app," or "monitor and fix production issues" " and then plan,…...

7+ min ago (222+ words) When developers ship their first real project, the next big question almost always appears: "What domain should I pick?" The domain world looks simple from the outside'but once you go deeper, it branches into a whole universe of domain types, naming styles, and branding choices. Before diving into modern domain madness, developers usually meet the classic trio: .com, .net, .org. Classic domains are simple, recognizable, and safe for long-term branding. Some of the most popular tech domains started as simple country codes. These domains feel modern and instantly signal what your project is about. Some domains are restricted, almost like rooms with keycards. These domains build trust but are not open to everyone. In 2012, the internet opened the floodgates and introduced hundreds of new, creative domain extensions. New TLDs are flexible and easy to brand with. These domains are woven…...

8+ min ago (306+ words) Rivian, a U.S.-based electric vehicle maker known for its premium electric trucks, SUVs, and delivery vans, has made a bold new claim about the future of driving. The company, which focuses heavily on advanced software and clean-energy technology, says its cars could become so autonomous that owners won't even need to be inside them." According to CEO RJ Scaringe, Rivian aims to reach this level of full driverless capability by 2030, allowing vehicles to run errands, pick up friends, and travel completely on their own. Scaringe explains that Rivian's next major features include "hands-off everywhere" driving and point-to-point navigation similar to Tesla's FSD. These systems will still require driver attention at first. But he believes that soon after, cars will no longer need monitoring. By 2028 or 2029, he suggests Rivian vehicles could complete solo trips while owners stay at home. Robotaxis like…...

10+ min ago (647+ words) A powerful burst from the Sun has set up a Strong (G3) geomagnetic storm watch for tomorrow, December 9, 2025 " and many skywatchers are asking whether the Northern Lights could already be visible tonight, Monday, December 8. On December 6, 2025, sunspot region AR 4299 unleashed a powerful M8.1class solar flare at about 20:39 UTC. Coronagraph images showed a fullhalo CME, meaning at least part of the eruption is heading straight toward Earth. [3] In response, the NOAA SWPC issued an official bulletin titled "Strong (G3) Geomagnetic Storm WATCH Valid for 09 Dec 2025." The agency states that the CME is expected to impact Earth "early to midday" on December 9, with the potential to produce periods of G3level geomagnetic storming. [4] Independent spaceweather outlets back this up: Several newsrooms around the world have picked up the story. Outlets in the U.S., Europe and Asia describe a "strong geomagnetic storm" likely on Tuesday, fueled by this M8.1 flare…...
