I HAVE worked with interns over the years, and that was more a matter of teaching them than anything else. They didn't make me more productive.

Food too. That's where the revolution is coming from. You have people that are facing imminent starvation or just plain dehydration.

That's one reason the revolution is happening. There are a lot of reasons to hate the Iranian government, among them the censorship that results in shutting off the internet.

Incidentally, that is the secret of the Soviet system: people are not so annoyed by the evil dictator at the top (Stalin), but they are extremely annoyed by their immediate superiors. Communism gave the masses the ability to retaliate against their immediate bosses (even if it was ultimately run by an evil dictator).

Ahead of next week’s conference, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas wrote a letter to French President Emmanuel Macron (...) The letter condemns the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack that triggered the war and calls for a release of all hostages still held in Gaza.

If Abbas agrees to a two state solution, that will be a huge step forward and very encouraging.
