Iran v. Israel going at it, protests in the US, and Sam Altman on the Gentle Singularity. Eventful week! PS: Polymarket's probability on Iran nuke seems way too high.

One of the Chinese carriers sailed inside Japan’s EEZ of Japan’s easternmost island, for the first time. This marked the first time that a Chinese aircraft carrier has sailed east of the so-called second island chain that includes Guam, where a US base is located.
