The picture in the article has a bunch of other people around them, in a bar/club. Pretty sure he wasn’t laying out the blueprints for the next chip right then and there.

I view them all as ideologically captured propaganda and tools of political interests. I'm also perfectly fine with that. What bothers me is denial from them and their ardent readers that they are not actually "fair and balanced" or objective on stories that can be used to score political points.

> Mr. Huang has not received a defensive briefing, warnings sometimes given to Americans who are being targeted by foreign intelligence services, people briefed on the surveillance said.

It’s essentially saying intelligence was gathered that a Chinese asset was close to Jensen and absolutely nothing was done about it.

There's a man that fell off the subway platform, about to get killed by the subway train, and the New York post photographer saw a great opportunity for a photo op for his employer instead of, y'know helping the guy out. Sure, the NYT has had its fair share of scandals but the NY Post isn't well respected for a whole other level of malfeasance.

I doubt the NY Post would even deny they are a trashy tabloid. It's their whole thing and understanding that is how you make money in that game.

The issues you allude to don’t create an equivalence, except in the minds of people with no capacity for discernment whatsoever.

Now China is the grown-up in the room while the US is running around like a maniac in Venezuela, Iran, and wherever else

$1 billion for trafficking would be 100,000 trafficking victims at a rate of $10,000 per victim, which is claimed by LLMs and some Internet sites. It does not make sense and looks like another operation where ironically the trafficking was the cover.

In other words, we know nothing about the real dynamics that led to the "suicides" of Epstein and Brunel.

This may be entirely unfair framing of course.

What did Jensen know and when did he know it?

He should be forced to testify in front of congress.

Claude was already used in offensive operations in Iran and Venezuela. Why on earth would I want America to have a commanding lead on this? So we can drone strike anyone who disagrees with renaming the Pacific the "American Ocean"?

That seems like either the behavior of an extremely devoted husband or the behavior of a husband who cheats shamelessly and then gives her showy gifts to "make up for it"

Once you open pandoras box, you dont put it back in. It doesnt matter what age.

The whole, they didnt get enough when younger, sounds like a very strange weird explanation that falls flat when you think for more than 5s about it.

You don't write about it in the NYTimes unless there's a purpose. That purpose is leverage. If you're negotiating, you don't blow all your leverage upfront; you subtly let the other party know you have it, and then wait to see if they play ball. If they don't, that's when you apply pressure.
