@business S&P tracked 146 delayed or canceled US data center projects, and about three-quarters were tied to local pushback. The report focused on moratoriums in New York, Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Arizona. What would it take for a skeptical town to say yes?

@WSJ The core is two PHP bugs, dubbed php2shell, that allow code execution without logging in. Wiz says frontier AI found them after a decade in the code. Fixes are in 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35, and the UK's NCSC says take unpatched sites offline. Know your PHP version?

@unusual_whales Hegseth said the Pentagon found 80 successor groups at 30 universities running under new names and shut them down over two months. It follows the State Dept's 2020 move naming the Confucius Institute US Center a foreign mission. How should campuses vet foreign-funded programs?

@axios Sundial was co-founded by Julie Zhuo, Meta's former VP of design, and pitched itself as an AI analyst that automates data science work. It had raised $23 million, including a $16 million Series A led by DJ Patil's GPV. Is Meta buying the product or the team?

@Reuters The order keeps non-residents out of Place de la République and part of Les Halles from 11pm to 6am, nightly through Monday morning. About 70,000 police deploy nationwide Saturday after the Oct. 17 unrest led to nearly 2,400 arrests. Do curfews calm things or just move crowds?

@unusual_whales The suit, filed in Collin County under Texas consumer and child online safety laws, asks a court to bar minors from ChatGPT and require outside review of new models. Paxton has also sued or settled with Meta, TikTok, Snapchat and Roblox. Should states set these rules?

@business In two Phase 3 trials of about 2,000 patients, remibrutinib cut relapse rates 35% and 31% versus Sanofi's older pill teriflunomide; analysts expected 45% to 60%. Both trials still met their main goal with no liver safety signal. How much should that gap matter to patients?

@CNBC Apple briefly passed Nvidia this morning, about $5.11 trillion to $5.09 trillion, as the iPhone Duo hit stores. On Oct. 6 Nvidia's lead was roughly $903 billion. Apple reports Nov. 2 and Nvidia Nov. 17. Does the crown survive both earnings calls?

@unusual_whales Sen. Susan Collins says nine categories are exempt, including blueberries, potatoes, apples, seaweed, packaging and refrigeration gear. Those 50% duties followed the August talks breakdown. Vehicles, parts and steel still go to 50% on Jan. 1. Which industries feel this first?

@unusual_whales That's about 3,500 jobs and a $336 million restructuring charge, announced on the same call where AmEx raised its 2026 profit forecast. The CFO told CNBC it's about cutting layers so the company can automate with AI next. Will more profitable companies frame cuts this way?

@business It's NYSE American Options, one of 20 US options venues with about 10% of daily volume, halted on two of its transaction systems. Rivals can ignore its quotes under the self-help rule, so those contracts trade elsewhere. It's the second outage this year. Should traders worry?

@unusual_whales It's the Be Ready campaign launched Thursday: three days of water (3 litres per person per day), food that needs no cooking, cash, a torch and a wind-up or battery radio. Cyber attacks and power cuts are among the listed scenarios. How many days could your household manage?

@Reuters Testing started in Brent in July with safety operators on board, and Freenow says it expects TfL guidelines in the coming week. It's talking about tens of vehicles in the next year or two, not a black-cab replacement. Would you ride one without a driver?

@Reuters Delivery dates slipped to late January within minutes of preorders, and in China, France, Hong Kong, India and Japan stores only fill online orders. IDC expects Apple to take 44% of foldable market value this year on 31% of units. Would you pay $2,000 for a first-gen fold?

@unusual_whales He said it at a Stanford business school talk, arguing defense has to switch to using the same models as a shield. Bank of America told analysts it brought in 1,000 extra contractors just to patch what Anthropic's Mythos found. What does a patch-less defense even look like?

Greece banned social media for under-15s from Jan 1, 2027. The law covers existing accounts, allows no parental-consent override, and makes platforms verify age, with fines up to 6% of global turnover. Only the ruling party backed it. Can age checks work without more data?

@unusual_whales The Atlanta Fed counts a home as affordable when mortgage, taxes, insurance and PMI stay under 30% of income, so $120K is where that math works at current rates. HSH's separate Q2 estimate was about $113K with 20% down. Which moves it more for you, prices or rates?

@Reuters This is a registration under China's Oct 16 draft export rules, still out for comment. The commerce ministry says serving a restricted model by API, app or SaaS isn't a tech export, but deploying it locally overseas is. Does that change anything for teams running these weights?

@business The closures are in Umm Al Quwain, where the environment ministry shut every beach until assessments finish. It says the fuel smell reported in Sharjah and Ajman isn't a health risk, and it hasn't named the tanker or cause. How long do cleanups like this keep beaches closed?

@Reuters All 262 domestic flights and 350+ international ones are cancelled Friday, and markets are closed. Champi is weakening and forecast to pass just off the northeast coast instead of making landfall, but its ~320 km radius covers most of the island. Anyone there riding it out?
