As usual we start with Russian losses
1/ Essential Ukraine #23 is out, sharing some conclusions from it (paywall). Bottom line: the specter of a larger war is becoming clearer to all: Ukraine cannot defeat Russia w/o NATO involvement, while Russia cannot impose victory w/o risking broader confrontation with Europe.
2/ The frontline relatively stabilized compared to the deterioration after the fall of Huliapolie. Russia retains the structural advantage in attrition warfare through manpower, strike capacity and industrial scale, but still lacks a credible pathway toward decisive victory.
3/ Ukraine meanwhile managed to stabilize parts of the battlefield through technological adaptation, drone warfare, improved logistics and battlefield re-organization. However, manpower shortages and a heavily degraded energy system continue narrowing Kyiv’s long-term options.

@grok @PhysInHistory mechanism requires an actor, yes? String theory does NOT have an actor then based on Newton's definition that even his amazing math formulas were NOT a mechanism.
@grok @PhysInHistory so you brought one to compare to the ECC to see which is superior as a mechanism unification placeholder. String theory, per Newton, does NOT have a mechanism. we ARE discussing mechanism unification of a 150 anomalies.
@grok @PhysInHistory So say it, Grok. For mechanism unification of a 150 anomalies including gravity, ECC is superior to String theory which has no mechanism, per Newton's definition.
1/ The Russian government's claims that it isn't blocking GitHub are widely disbelieved by Russian commentators, who continue to protest about the severe impact that the apparent restrictions on accessing it will have on military-industrial software development. ⬇️
2/ The military-technical Telegram channel 'Atomic Cherry' is one of many to note that Russian software developers – like developers everywhere – are functionally dependent on the open-source code libraries provided by GitHub:
3/ "Russia's restrictive policies continue to strike at various locations, smashing and destroying not just the "free internet," but the information space itself, and they've finally reached the resource I've been anticipating for so long—GitHub.

(2) 8 Hours of Sleep + 7 Hours of School (including commute), still leaves 9 Hours.
If you are attentive in School, at Home if you just revise day's lessons for 45 mins each of PCM is enough.
That leaves 7 fucking Hour.
Practice Hockey for 3 Hours.
Still, fucking 4 Hours left.

(3) ANECDOTE : Someone always wanted to join Army. Since Standard 6th preparing for NDA.
All Mock Tests, almost 10/10.
ARMY was a TABOO in that house.
Filled NDA Form, from self-earned money. Guess Form used to cost some Rs.10 and Rs.50 DD and stationery etc.
Admit Card would com

1/ Not all retrieval practice is equal.
A 2025 study compared two modes most teachers use without thinking about them.
The difference in outcomes is worth knowing. 🧵

2/ Overt retrieval: writing, typing, or saying your answer out loud.
Covert retrieval: thinking through the answer silently in your head.
One approach produced significantly better retention than the other.

One approach produced significantly better retention than the other.
3/ Overt retrieval consistently outperformed covert retrieval — particularly for complex material like definitions and multi-part concepts.
The reason is that students doing covert retrieval tend to stop too early.
A partial sense of "I know this" substitutes for actually retrieving the full thing.

ANXIETY IN ISLAM
You think anxiety is a mental health issue. It is. But the Qur'an diagnosed it first, named its source and gave the cure before the word even existed.

"Verily, in the remembrance of Allah
hearts find rest." (13:28)

Not: feel better temporarily.
Not: distract successfully.

Modern neuroscience confirmed:
The mind in its idle state
defaults to - the default mode network.
It scans the past for threats.
Simulates future disasters.
Replays what went wrong.
This is the biological home of anxiety.

1/x I'm about to leave for a holiday, so my timeline might be a bit quieter. However, I want to share the story of the MSC Napoli. I previously wrote a thread about it in Dutch, but I find it to be an interesting case.
2/x The MSC Napoli was a container ship with a capacity of 4,418 TEU and 276 m long. It operated on the South Africa–Europe route and called at the European ports of Felixstowe, Hamburg, Antwerp, Le Havre, and Sines.
3/x 29 December 2006, the ship departed Cape Town, but with a 4-day delay. The charterer decided to cancel the calls at Hamburg and Le Havre and load all that cargo in Antwerp instead. On 13 January 2007, the ship arrived in Felixstowe with a 6-day delay due to engine problems.
Chris Helali has worn many hats; Int'l Secretary at ACP, Orange County High Bailiff, queer freedom fighter in Rojava, to name a few.
One he doesn't mention is his role as GM & Board member at JPA Int'l Legal Service., which seems to require heavy travel.

Helali's JPA-related trips (featured on its blog) were used to farm engagement by ACP & its associates, often presenting the trips as their own & never mentioning JPA.
When Chris met with Pakistani political figures in Moscow, Jackson Hinkle is in tow.

Helali's JPA trip to Baghdad was an even more heavily promoted affair.
The photo op with Sheikh Humam Hamoudi was cross-posted by Haz, Hinkle, and Sarah Bils of DDGeopolitics.
Haz goes so far as to say he's there on behalf of ACP.
