China’s government has reportedly told the country’s largest oil refiners to suspend exports of diesel and gasoline as an escalating conflict in the Persian Gulf disrupts the arrival of crude from one of the world’s largest producing regions. Officials from the National Development and Reform Commission, the country’s top economic planner, met refinery executives and verbally called for a temporary suspension of refined product shipments that would begin immediately, Bloomberg News reported. The refiners were asked to stop signing new contracts and to negotiate the cancellation of already-agreed shipments, the report said. An exception was made for jet and bunker fuel held in bonded storage and supplies to Hong Kong and Macau. According to one Seeking Alpha analyst , i t is not a coincidence that China has bet so much on renewables over the last few years and has started to accumulate a huge amount of onshore crude inventories: a record high of 1.20 billion barrels in early January. Considering that China typically imports 5 million oil barrels on a daily basis coming from the Strait of Hormuz, if closed, it would take 240 days (34 weeks) to run out of all the oil inventories. " What if the war lasts more than 34 weeks? That’s a major concern, but not only for China, for all the world. If anything, China is less of a problem compared to the European Union and Japan, both oil-dependent economies that don’t produce it… China has many more levers to pull before getting severely hit by this war, and for now it is still well covered."

"Mirrors falling off, tail lights falling off - all that sort of thing, which we are having to address. "But the much more significant problem is that the vibration is transmitted ultimately into the driver's fingers. "So Fernando [Alonso] is of the feeling that he can't do more than 25 laps consecutively before he will risk permanent nerve damage to his hands. "Lance [Stroll] is of the opinion that he can't do more than 15 laps before that threshold." The team have worked at finding ways to prevent the vibrations from the engine leading to failures in the batteries in the engine's hybrid system, which afflicted them during pre-season testing. These have been introduced on the car for the Australian GP. Honda F1 boss Koji Watanabe said they would only know whether the countermeasures were effective once the car starts running on track on Friday. The fix introduced only stops the vibrations reaching the battery. They are still being transmitted into the chassis, and from there into the steering. "There's no point in not being open and honest in this meeting on our expectations," Newey said. "We are going to have to be very heavily restricted on how many laps we do in the race until we get on top of the source of the vibration and improve the vibration at source." Alonso said the vibrations made his hands and feet feel "numb" after a number of laps, but added: "If we were fighting for the win, we can do three hours in the car, let's be clear. But definitely it is something that is unusual. It shouldn't be there. "We don't know the consequences either if we keep driving like that for months. So a solution has to be implemented." Alonso said the team would decide after practice and qualifying how to approach the race, when they had a better understanding of how the changes to the car had affected the problem. The Honda engine is also significantly down on performance as F1 begins a new engine regulation period based on a 50-50 split between the internal combustion (ICE)...

【导读】刚刚，YC最新创业清单点名「AI欺诈猎手」。当黑灰产开始用AI作案，防守方也在组建智能体军团——反欺诈的终局，或许不是更强风控，而是一个自带安全基因的智能体世界。 Y Combinator（YC）作为全球最有影响力的创业孵化器及投资机构之一，会在每季度发布一个创业需求清单（RFC, Requests for Startups），即是YC的最新投资方向，也逐渐成为行业的热点风向标。 2026年春，YC发布了最新的RFC清单（完整清单见Reference 1），其中一项「政府欺诈猎手基础设施」（Infra for Government Fraud Hunters）引起了我们的共鸣。 成立15年来，通付盾在能源、金融、政府等行业的反欺诈领域持续深耕，深知其工作的艰辛坎坷，而智能体时代的来临让我们相信，反欺诈领域的格局正在产生根本性的变化。 反欺诈领域的「非对称竞争」 反欺诈本质上是一场攻防博弈。在过去相当长的时间里，这场博弈的主动权往往掌握在攻击者手中。 核心原因在于一种深层次的「成本不对称」——当防守方还在权衡合规风险与技术可行性时，攻击者早已利用成本优势发起了下一轮试探。 第一层不对称，在于单次失败的代价。对于黑灰产团伙而言，一次攻击被拦截不过是浪费了若干IP、一批虚假账号，或者一套自动化脚本。 这些资源的获取成本极低，甚至可以规模化批量生产。 而对于银行、政务平台或大型企业来说，一次防御失败意味着什么？可能是数百万用户的隐私泄露、直接的资金盗用损失，以及难以估量的品牌声誉崩塌。 这种「攻击者可以输一百次，防守方一次都不能输」的局面，构成了传统反欺诈最沉重的枷锁。 第二层不对称，在于技术创新的「负担」。黑灰产是新技术最激进、最不计后果的尝鲜者。 当深度伪造（Deepfake）刚刚出现时，他们已经开始用于突破人脸核验；当自动化流程工具流行时，他们迅速将其改造为「打码」和「撞库」的利器。 他们不需要考虑新技术的伦理边界，不需要通过层层合规审批，更不用顾及是否会误伤正常用户。 反观防守方，尤其是金融、政府等关键领域的机构，任何一项新技术的引入都必须经历漫长的安全评估、数据隐私审查和业务流程适配。 当一个反欺诈模型历经千辛万苦终于上线时，攻击者可能早已转向了新的绕行路径。 然而，人工智能，特别是智能体（Agent）技术的成熟，正在为防守方提供一次历史性的翻盘机会。 智...
