    ‘Let them all assault me’: Records show armed, off-duty Phoenix cop's plan at student anti-ICE walkout
    https://www.fox10phoenix.com/news/let-them-all-assault-me-records-show-armed-off-duty-phoenix-cops-plan-student-anti-ice-walkout
    We’ve learned that an armed man who authorities say created a tense situation for high school students protesting ICE in Chandler is a Phoenix police sergeant. The incident he’s involved in is now under review by the Professional Standards Bureau. These student walkouts happened a week after federal agents in Minneapolis shot and killed Alex Pretti on January 24. Pretti was armed with a handgun he legally owned. As for this protest against Immigrations and Customs Enforcement in Chandler, the armed counter-protester is Dusten Mullen, a Phoenix PD community action sergeant with the Sound Mountain Precinct who was off-duty. According to this Chandler report, his goal was to get juvenile protesters to assault him.

    Ultraviolet light illuminates species-specific biofluorescent casque patterns in cassowaries (Casuarius) - Scientific Reports
    https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-026-40230-1
    Cassowaries possess prominent keratinous and bony cranial ornaments, called casques, which have been suggested to function in visual signaling. Despite possessing vividly colored head and neck skin, casque keratin appears dull, which has abated the casque’s proposed role as a visual indicator. Given that cassowaries, like many other birds, can perceive color in the ultraviolet (UV) range, we exposed heads of living and museum-preserved cassowaries to UV wavelengths (365; 385–395 nm) and discovered that casque keratin possesses biofluorescent patterns that differ significantly between species (Casuarius bennetti, C. casuarius, C. unappendiculatus). To assess whether casque surfaces reflect these patterns, we tested for the presence of UV reflectivity using a UV-sensitive camera. We found that casque keratin reflects 365 nm UV light, a wavelength within the range of cassowary eye sensitivity. However, our observations cannot confirm whether species-specific patterns can be detected by cassowaries in natural light conditions.

    Sam Altman May Control Our Future—Can He Be Trusted?
    https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2026/04/13/sam-altman-may-control-our-future-can-he-be-trusted
    New interviews and closely guarded documents shed light on the persistent doubts about the head of OpenAI. Yet most of the people we spoke to shared the judgment of Sutskever and Amodei: Altman has a relentless will to power that, even among industrialists who put their names on spaceships, sets him apart. “He’s unconstrained by truth,” the board member told us. “He has two traits that are almost never seen in the same person. The first is a strong desire to please people, to be liked in any given interaction. The second is almost a sociopathic lack of concern for the consequences that may come from deceiving someone.” The board member was not the only person who, unprompted, used the word “sociopathic.” One of Altman’s batch mates in the first Y Combinator cohort was Aaron Swartz, a brilliant but troubled coder who died by suicide in 2013 and is now remembered in many tech circles as something of a sage. Not long before his death, Swartz expressed concerns about Altman to several friends. “You need to understand that Sam can never be trusted,” he told one. “He is a sociopath. He would do anything.” Multiple senior executives at Microsoft said that, despite Nadella’s long-standing loyalty, the company’s relationship with Altman has become fraught. “He has misrepresented, distorted, renegotiated, reneged on agreements,” one said. Earlier this year, OpenAI reaffirmed Microsoft as the exclusive cloud provider for its “stateless”—or memoryless—models. That day, it announced a fifty-billion-dollar deal making Amazon the exclusive reseller of its enterprise platform for A.I. agents. While reselling is permitted, Microsoft executives argue OpenAI’s plan could collide with Microsoft’s exclusivity. (OpenAI maintains that the Amazon deal will not violate the earlier contract; a Microsoft representative said the company is “confident that OpenAI understands and respects” its legal obligations.) The senior executive at Microsoft said, of Altman, “I think there’s a small but real chance he’s eventually remembered as a Bernie Madoff- or Sam Bankman-Fried-level scammer.”

    Polymarket apologizes for allowing wagers on fate of U.S. pilots downed in Iran
    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/polymarket-apologizes-allowing-wagers-fate-us-pilots-downed-iran-rcna266715
    Prediction market platform Polymarket issued an apology for allowing users to place bets on the fate of American pilots aboard a U.S. fighter jet downed over Iran. A two-seater F-15E Strike Eagle was shot down on Friday, according to a U.S. official. One crew member was rescued, but the other remains missing. In a since-deleted market, users were able to wager on when the pilots might be rescued, with the majority predicting a Saturday rescue. “US confirms pilots rescued by...?” the market read. Rep. Seth Moulton, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who served in Iraq, slammed the market in a post on X, noting that bets were being placed as a dangerous search and rescue operation was ongoing in Iran. "They could be your neighbor, a friend, a family member," the Democrat from Massachusetts wrote. "And people are betting on whether or not they’ll be saved." "This is DISGUSTING," he added. In a reply to Moulton's X post, Polymarket apologized and said it took the market down.
