If curbing a spiralling multibillion-dollar transport fare subsidy bill was as simple as an Octopus card system reset, the revamp to make the concessionary scheme for senior and disabled passengers more affordable for public coffers would have been much less bumpy.

If curbing a spiralling multibillion-dollar transport fare subsidy bill was as simple as an Octopus card system reset, the revamp to make the concessionary scheme for senior and disabled passengers more affordable for public coffers would have been much less bumpy. Without restoring the age eligibility threshold of 65 to check the growing pool of beneficiaries – currently at 2.7 million people – the Hong Kong authorities sought to rein in spending first by footing less for longer and costlier...

Torsten Asmus/iStock via Getty Images Market Update and Portfolio Review Markets experienced higher volatility in the first quarter of 2026, driven by geopolitical conflict, persistent inflation fears and increased policy uncertainty. After three years of outperformance, large-cap growth stocks declined and categories that trailed in recent years gained, including small-cap, value and real estate. The nominal 10-year U.S. Treasury bond yield finished Q1 slightly higher. Several crosscurrents influenced bond yields, including softer labor-market data, higher near-term inflation expectations, a shift in monetary policy expectations and medium-term fiscal challenges.

Raising Girls Who Won't Be Bullied Off The Starting Line Authored by Patti Garibay via RealClearPolitics , The parents of California high school track athlete Reese Hogan did something no parent should have to do. They went to the press to ask why Gov. Gavin Newsom is fine letting a biological boy compete against their daughter for a girls' title . Reese put in the hard work required for a girl to take home the title. Reese is the one who deserves the trophy. But in 2026, asking for a fair race makes you the troublemaker. A few hundred miles up the coast, Nicki Minaj said she's done biting her tongue . Her California home keeps getting "swatted," and Newsom's office hasn't lifted a finger. She accuses Jay-Z and Roc Nation of trying to destroy her career. To be clear, Minaj has made choices and taken positions many conservative Christians wouldn't endorse. But that's precisely what makes this so revealing. Even someone who once fit in so comfortably within an elite cultural crowd can be cast out the moment she refuses total ideological conformity. She has become a whistleblower of what many women already knew: The woke crowd celebrates women only as long as they stay compliant. The second you deviate from the approved script, you're on your own. Let's think about that for a minute. A rap star with millions of fans feels she's run out of room in today's celebrity culture. If she can't speak her mind, what hope does a stay-at-home mom in Cincinnati have when she shows up to a school board meeting? These examples illustrate that feminism is no longer about women. It's about sticking to a script. Question the script - about your body, your faith, your daughter's locker room, your right to stay home and raise babies - and the same crowd that once chanted about your "liberation" will call you a danger to society. Our girls grow up watching this unfold, learning very early what kind of woman this culture will tolerate. Nowhere is the script more obvious than in the fawning ...

Xiaomi's MiMo AI team has open-sourced MiMo Code V0.1.0 , a terminal-native AI coding assistant that the Chinese electronics giant says outperforms Anthropic's Claude Code on key agentic coding benchmarks, especially on long-horizon, multi-step tasks (200+ steps) — at least, according to its own internal beta release and survey of 576 developers. It's also bundling limited-time free access to MiMo-V2.5, its multimodal flagship model with a million-token context window, requiring no registration to get started. The release was announced June 10, 2026 in a post on the social network X from the official @XiaomiMiMo account , which described the tool as "more than an AI coding assistant in your terminal — it's the smartest coding partner you'll ever work with." MiMo Code is available now on GitHub under an MIT license , and installs with a single terminal command ( curl -fsSL https://mimo.xiaomi.com/install | bash ) on macOS and Linux or via npm ( npm install -g @mimo-ai/cli ) on Windows. The project is a fork of the open-source OpenCode agent, which Xiaomi has extended with its own memory architecture, workflow modes, and model harness. The end of AI coding agents' amnesia? As any avid vibe coder would surely attest, AI coding agents degrade over long working sessions: as the context window fills, earlier decisions, conventions, and task state get compacted away or lost entirely, forcing developers to re-explain their projects. Xiaomi argues this approach is doomed at scale. "What we need is not better compression, but an explicit storage-and-retrieval mechanism that decides what information should be written into persistent structures, and when it should be recalled," the MiMo team noted in their launch blog . MiMo Code attacks this with a cross-session memory system, powered under the hood by SQLite FTS5 full-text search, that spans four layers: project memory (a persistent MEMORY.md file), session checkpoints, scratch notes, and per-task progress logs. The note-taki...
