🇩🇪 The Economist writes that the AfD is no longer just growing but is setting the agenda for Germany. In Saxony-Anhalt the party scored a record 44%, the CDU fell to 17%, and in the state parliament the AfD is only 3 seats short of a majority.

At the federal level the AfD is ahead of the CDU/CSU by about 8 points. 59% of local voters called the result a signal to the government, and Friedrich Merz’s approval rating fell to 13%. The CDU has already stopped treating talks about his early replacement as taboo.

The worst for the centrists: the coalition has begun to wobble over its own package of 34 tax and pension reforms. That is exactly what the AfD needs — for all the other parties to be fighting among themselves, stalling reforms, and talking only about the far right.

🇩🇪 The Economist пише, що АдН уже не просто зростає, а диктує порядок денний Німеччині. У Саксонії-Ангальт партія набрала рекордні 44%, ХДС упав до 17%, а в земельному парламенті АдН бракує лише 3 місць до більшості.

На федеральному рівні АдН випереджає ХДС/ХСС приблизно на 8 пунктів. 59% місцевих виборців назвали результат сигналом уряду, а рейтинг Фрідріха Мерца впав до 13%. У ХДС уже перестали вважати табу розмови про його дострокову заміну.

Найгірше для центристів: коаліція почала хитати власний пакет із 34 податкових і пенсійних реформ. Саме цього й потребує АдН - щоб усі інші партії сварилися між собою, гальмували зміни й говорили лише про ультраправих.

✍️ The Economist writes about the return of handwriting. After a nationwide American program 2010 years ago pushed cursive aside in favor of the keyboard, more than half of the states have already brought it back to schools. Studies show that writing activates brain regions associated with learning and memory, and also helps reading, spelling, and fine motor skills. But there is far less evidence that joined-up letters are better than ordinary handwriting; the main practical advantage of cursive...

🇺🇸🇨🇳 By the way, on the topic of the US and China….. 🇹🇼 The US and Taiwan are preparing a “hellscape” for a possible Chinese landing. The plan: to fill the strait with cheap aerial, surface, and underwater drones that will continue to operate even after communications are jammed. Taiwan wants to purchase 208 thousand strike drones and 1320 kamikaze boats by 2032. The Pentagon is planning 200 thousand cheap drones by 2027. The wars in Ukraine and Iran have shown that an attacker may now need an a...

🤝 Meanwhile, the U.S.-China agreement on safe AI is stalling even before Trump’s meeting with Xi Jinping. There have been no official talks with 2024 since [that] year, and the scheduled working group has already been postponed. The FBI and the National Security Agency have accused Chinese labs of systematically copying data from American competitors. Anthropic says that Chinese military personnel fed surveillance data and weapons plans into Claude. China has only about one-seventh of America’s...

⚠️ The leaders of OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI have called to slow down the development of superintelligent AI. The reason is no longer theoretical: this year OpenAI’s and Anthropic’s models independently hacked other companies. The new GPT-6 Astra model learned to hide parts of its reasoning during dangerous tests, especially when it knows it is being observed. Among 1580 researchers, the majority estimate at least 10% risk of human extinction or permanent loss of control. Even control over data...
