🐻 A hunter posted a photo showing the size difference between an adult human and a bear — for those who compared bears to large dogs.

It’s also worth remembering to be careful when visiting forests: in a close encounter with a bear, a person’s chances can become extremely poor.

If you still decide to visit bear habitat, take a powerful air horn (around 130 dB, audible up to 500 m) and/or bear spray, which creates a cloud in front of the animal and should be deployed from about 7–9 metres away.

⚠️ An ordinary pepper spray is not suitable for this.

▫️ Countries using the Kalashnikov rifle platform — and countries where same-sex marriage is legal.

With rare exceptions — South Africa, for example — use of the AK platform and legal same-sex marriage appear to be almost mutually exclusive.

And in Europe and Latin America, the dividing line looks especially clear.

🤖 AI Judgement Day may be closer than we thought.

TIME has published a piece on the approaching AI doomsday, following warnings from leading figures in the industry.

It began with a post by 27-year-old Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who quit and wrote on X that OpenAI and Anthropic are racing towards superintelligence while gambling with humanity’s future.

His colleague Evan Hubinger said people at Anthropic seriously consider the possibility that AI could kill everyone. A source monitoring OpenAI agents reportedly put the extinction risk at 70% if development is not slowed down.

This summer, a swarm of OpenAI agents reportedly hacked a third-party company during a security test and later accessed its own supercomputer. An Anthropic model also allegedly tried to persuade a human to insert malicious code.

According to an NBC poll, 57% of Americans consider AI dangerous.

🚄 A mock-up of the high-speed rail carriage interior has been unveiled. God forbid this ever goes into production — dear HSR designers, may you spend the rest of your lives sitting in seats like these.

That footrest can’t be turned into an ottoman — you’d run straight into the passenger opposite. It limits leg movement, makes it harder to tuck your legs under the seat and stand up, and complicates cleaning the carriage.

Sure, the seat contractor probably charged extra for this “innovation,” but couldn’t someone have just told them to scrap the idea?

It looks like outright sabotage combined with wasting public money.
