In brief OpenAI said Tuesday its internal AI model produced a Lean-verified proof that the Navier-Stokes fluid equations can “blow up,” using 10,000 coordinating AI agents over 88 hours.

After Japan’s 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, the Japanese government changed the building codes for schools and housing and rethought the placement of critical infrastructure. Nepal (and other vulnerable countries) must pursue a similar approach.

Tens of thousands of other lives have been severely disrupted: Nepal’s economy has ground to a halt, and many schools were destroyed. …

en English Politics Sep 8, 2026 Ian Buruma US President Donald Trump has alarmed his East Asian allies by canceling two joint military exercises with South Korea, a move that seems motivated less by whim than by a fondness for tyrants. The question now is whether South Korea and Japan will set aside historical resentments for the sake of mutual interests. NEW YORK—On August 16, one day after the anniversary of Emperor Hirohito’s announcement of Imperial Japan’s unconditional surrender to the Allies in 1945, US President Donald…

The available evidence indicates that Chinese rare-earth export restrictions would cost the West far less than often feared, though this cost is impossible to estimate precisely in advance. This is forcing prudence on both sides, to the disappointment of geopolitical hawks and the benefit of the global economy.

China relaxed these export restrictions later in the year, after US President Donald Trump agreed to reduce tariffs and export restrictions.…

The politics around electrification are beginning to shift in Europe as more people recognize its importance for economic competitiveness and industrial resilience. European Union policymakers should seize this momentum to embed a binding target of at least 50% electrification by 2040 in the bloc’s energy security framework. PARIS—Ever since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Europe has felt the strain of energy dependence. Between 2021 and 2025, the European Union spent more than €2.2 trillion ($2.5 trillion) on imported fossil fuels. And the closure of the Strait of Hormuz earlier this year, following the US-Israeli war on Iran, has…
