Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Season 2 finale of House of the Dragon.
Season 2 of House of the Dragon ended not with the long-awaited Battle of the Gullet but with a montage that left viewers with more questions than answers. Who took Otto Hightower prisoner? Did Rhaena mount Sheepstealer? Seriously, where is Daeron?!
And what about that conference between Rhaenyra and Alicent? Will both sides stick to their promise?
Governments made a “lack of concrete progress” toward regulating artificial intelligence this year even as the question of the technology’s safety rocketed up the global agenda, according to the 2023 “State of AI” report, published Thursday.
The field of AI safety “shed its status as the unloved cousin of the AI research world and took center-stage [in 2023] for the first time,” the report said. But amid a lack of global consensus on the way forward for regulation, the developers of cutting-edge AI systems were “making a push to shape norms” by proposing their own regulatory models.
Folks around NASA don’t much care for this time of year. It was 56 years ago last week—January 27, 1967—that astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee lost their lives in a launch pad fire inside their Apollo 1 spacecraft as they were running a dress rehearsal for countdown. It was 37 years ago—on January 28, 1986—that the shuttle Challenger exploded during launch due to a faulty seal that caused one of the solid rocket boosters to ignite the external fuel tank.

A.A. Milne’s books—including the simply titled Winnie-the-Pooh, which was published on this day in 1926—made Winnie the bear and his animal friends world famous, but they were not only the product of Milne’s imagination. The author, along with illustrator Ernest H. Shepard, actually based his work on some very real stuffed animals—those of Milne’s son, Christopher Robin Milne.
Although the book was published 89 years ago Wednesday, the beloved character got his start five years before, when Milne gave his son a toy bear for his first birthday on Aug.
Whatever the reason, Im not complaining, because when I get too excited, I can shoot pretty quickly. Its embarrassing, especially when I have someone who came all the way down from Harlem to visit me in Brooklyn, and I only last 2 minutes. (You can only say, Sorry, youre just so sexy, I couldn't hold it so many times.) According to WebMed , studies dating as far back as 2007 have found that using sprays can delay ejaculation by twofold.

IPO REVENGE Shareholders have filed a record number of class actions this year, with nearly half the suits alleging IPO foul play. Investors can watch the bloodbath on securities.stanford.edu which offers weekly e-mail updates. But for potential plaintiffs, a partner at Milberg Weiss, one of the largest class-action firms in the U.S., offers a bit of advice: “We don’t want grumbling or speculation.
Imagine if the U.S. were to open interior Alaska for colonization and, for whatever reason, thousands of Canadian settlers poured in, establishing their own towns, hockey rinks and Tim Hortons stores. When the U.S. insists they follow American laws and pay American taxes, they refuse. When the government tries to collect taxes, they shoot and kill American soldiers. When law enforcement goes after the killers, the colonists, backed by Canadian financing and mercenaries, take up arms in open revolt.
