This weekend, looking at the troubles confronting Rachel Reeves, the FT explores indicators that growth has stalled & a recession looks likely, but doesn't once mention this has been the express intent of BoE/MPC policy for the last two years.
Its a conspiracy of silence that is really annoying me (this article is not the first to exclude the BoE/MPC' policy actions in this regard, nor is the FT the only offender).
A recession is what the sado-monterists have been working towards
Israel's military said Saturday it had failed to intercept a "projectile" launched from Yemen that landed in Tel Aviv, with the national medical service saying 16 people were lightly wounded.
In a statement, the Houthis said they had "targeted a military target of the Israeli enemy in the occupied area of" Tel Aviv using a ballistic missile.
The Yemeni group has repeatedly launched missile attacks against Israel since the war in Gaza began.
WIRED article forecasting the generative AI bubble will burst in 2025. This is more optimistic than my own expectations, but if WIRED are printing it, it's the direction sentiment in Silicon Valley is running in.

@Charlie Stross @Profane tmesis a year ago everyone on Internet forums was all, “let’s ask ChatGPT!”
And now when someone posts a GPT response, the answers are always, “why did you post this? That thing lies”
Gives me hope.
@ptmesis It's so very obviously a market bubble. Generative AI makes for amusing toys but it's fundamentally not conscious or aware in any way—so its answers veer towards "plausible bullshit" rather than "meaningtful".
Which is why spicy autocomplete gets you results like this screencap ...
Meanwhile using non-generative tools for spotting cancer in breast scans seems great, but you can't milk gullible non-techie investors of billions that way.

Video of the failed attempt to intercept the Houthi missile last night over Tel Aviv:
At the beginning of the video - two interceptors go out to the missile, fail to intercept it and apparently destroy themselves in the air, immediately afterwards - the missile strikes Tel Aviv.

The Christmas market attacker in Magdeburg Germany is a 50-year-old male doctor from Saudi Arabia with permanent residency in Germany, where he had lived for 18 years.
He was a lone offender.
The motive was unclear.
The suspect was not known to German authorities as an Islamist, according to local broadcaster MDR.
A Saudi source told Reuters the kingdom had warned German authorities about the attacker, who the source said had posted extremist views.
