Ukraine is flipping the script on modern warfare, moving from a recipient of aid to a global defense powerhouse with a proposed $50 billion drone pipeline. While Kyiv pitches low-cost interceptors to the Gulf, Meta is "de-layering" its human staff to fund a $135 billion AI infrastructure binge. From acquiring a social network exclusively for bots to pushing a 1:50 human-to-AI management ratio, Zuckerberg is betting the farm on a future where your coworker is a line of code.
The "Year of Efficiency" gets even weirder as an EU study finds a 100% failure rate in headphone safety, revealing that your favorite "premium" brands are leaking hormone-disrupting chemicals directly into your ear sweat. To cap off the chaos, a new $100,000 H-1B visa fee designed to tax tech titans has accidentally "body-slammed" rural schools and hospitals. We’re breaking down how a policy aimed at Mark Zuckerberg ended up making a special ed teacher from the Philippines cost more than a Ferrari.
