As a steady stream of mourners filed in, two overcome young women threw themselves over the casket, howling in grief. More cries reverberated down the mostly silent street before everyone was ushered inside. Chief Rabbi Yehoram Ulman choked back tears as he paid tribute to his son-in-law Schlanger.

2+ min ago (339+ words) CHICAGO " Senior Border Patrol official Greg Bovino returned to the Chicago area on Tuesday, about a month after leaving to lead immigration enforcements in other cities, immigration advocates say. Bovino left Chicago in November to lead immigration operations in New Orleans and North Carolina. While immigration operations had continued in Chicago, they were noticeably subdued with fewer tense confrontations, and Tuesday's enforcements were among the most visible since Bovino left town. "As we said a month ago, we aren't leaving Chicago and operations are ongoing," said Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker complained that he was not given notice that Bovino and additional Border Patrol agents were returning to the Chicago area on Tuesday. And he said he doesn't know how long they'll stay. Pritzker also called on Bovino to testify in front of…...

3+ min ago (681+ words) Thinking Machines Lab has moved its Tinker training API into general availability and added 3 major capabilities, support for the Kimi K2 Thinking reasoning model, OpenAI compatible sampling, and image input through Qwen3-VL vision language models. For AI engineers, this turns Tinker into a practical way to fine tune frontier models without building distributed training infrastructure. Tinker is a training API that focuses on large language model fine tuning and hides the heavy lifting of distributed training. You write a simple Python loop that runs on a CPU only machine. You define the data or RL environment, the loss, and the training logic. The Tinker service maps that loop onto a cluster of GPUs and executes the exact computation you specify. The API exposes a small set of primitives, such as forward_backward to compute gradients, optim_step to update weights, sample to generate outputs, and…...
