Arbiters of Truth
Courtney Cox on AI in Adjudication [live from the Institute of Law & AI's Workshop on Law-Following AI]

Courtney Cox, Associate Professor of Law at Fordham Law School, joins Kevin Frazier, AI Innovation and Law Fellow at the University of Texas School of Law and a Senior Editor at Lawfare, to discuss her forthcoming article, Hardwiring Hercules?.It's a great read that builds on Dworkin's idea of a perfect adjudicator, Hercules. Courtney argues that the debate over a “right to a human decision” has missed a central problem: normative uncertainty. Machines may struggle to explain their decisions, but humans often struggle too—especially when judges are uncertain about what they ought to do. At the same time, the common response that people merely have a right to a “better decision,” whether by human or machine, assumes we know what “better” means. Courtney's paper challenges both sides of the debate and asks what AI governance should look like when regulators, engineers, and judges cannot simply “hardwire Hercules.” Hosted on Acast.

Supernatural with Ashley Flowers

For millennia, the legend of Medusa has haunted the human imagination, a creature so terrifying that a single glance could turn the living to stone. While most dismiss her as pure mythology, some researchers point to serpentine monsters appearing independently across ancient cultures and ask: were they all describing the same thing? But look closer at Medusa's story, and something shifts. Because some say she wasn't born a monster; she was made into one.  For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/mystical-medusa Did you know you can listen to So Supernatural ad-free?

50th Anniversary of The Rescue At Entebbe, Operation Yonatan, The Greatest Military Rescue in History: Interview with IDF General Matan Vilnai - Alan Skorski Reports

Alan Skorski sat down for an interview with former IDF General and paratroop commander, Matan Vilnai, who along with Muki Betser and Yonaton Netanyahu, led Israel's elite unit, the Sayeret Matkal, to perform the greatest military rescue of hostages in history. On June 27th 1976, a French airliner was hijacked en route from Israel to France. After stopping in Athens, the airliner was hijacked by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and West German terrorists, then flown to Entebbe, Uganda, following a brief stopover in Libya. The hijackers demanded the release of 53 terrorists imprisoned in Israel, Kenya, and West Germany. In response, following failed attempts to get the hostages released through diplomatic channels, on July 3, Israel dispatched four Hercules cargo planes carrying over 100 soldiers, and escorted by Phantom jet fighters. While the planes were dispatched on July 3, the mission wasn't officially approved by the Knesset until they were in the air for 2.5 hours of a 7 hour flight. The mission itself took place on July 4. After flying roughly 2,500 miles from Israel to Uganda, the Israeli forces rescued the hostages within an hour after landing. During this historic rescue, 3 hostages were killed in the crossfire, and another hostage, Dora Bloch, was murdered by Ugandan troops while in a Ugandan hospital. The operation, initially code-named Operation Thunderbolt, was later renamed Operation Yonatan, after it's leader Yonatan Nentayahu was killed during the rescue. During the interview Skorski asked General Vilnai questions like where he was when news broke of the hijacking, what thoughts went through the minds of him and his colleagues about the potential of a successful rescue mission, and what his feelings are now, 50 years later. Listen to the interview for the real inside story of how the entire operation unfolded from beginning to end, and whom General Vilnai credits for the success of the mission, and what was the most important lesson learned from Entebbe. Note: General Vilnai is featured on the far right of the ramp by the Black Mercedes as they rolled the car back out onto the tarmac upon their safe return to Israel.

An airport director discusses air service and passenger growth, airport expansion, ATC impacts, and the implementation of a new RNP approach. In the news: DCA changes may increase the likelihood of helicopter-on-helicopter collisions, Collaborative Combat Aircraft airframers are selected while mission autonomy software is decoupled, Canada and the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP), harmonizing FAA and EASA certification rules, and another runway near-miss. Guest Paul Bradbury is the Airport Director at the Portland Jetport in Maine. We look at Air service and passenger statistics, and Paul announces the Jetport's first seasonal transcontinental service with United to San Francisco and Los Angeles. He explains the opportunities small hub airports can realize through continued upgauging of aircraft. Paul notes that passengers have been willing to pay higher fares due to increased fuel prices.    See: United Airlines Launches Nonstop Flights from SFO and LAX to Portland Maine. To address parking capacity issues, Paul is now wrapping up the design and permitting for the revised $8.6 million surface parking plan, which the Portland City Council approved in April. This has been a lengthy process, and opposition from some area residents had to be resolved. See: Portland approves $10 million Jetport parking expansion. Paul also tells us about the challenges of Air Traffic Control capacity issues and the FAA’s capping of flights. We also learn about how the Jetport worked with Flight Tech Engineering to implement a new RNP approach to PWM that keeps flights over water. This approach was published on April 16, 2026, but is just now available for assignment by PWM ATC. Aviation News Helicopter collision risk higher after D.C. airspace changes, Coast Guard leaders say Following the January 2025 midair collision, the FAA made changes to the congested airspace around Washington, D.C. But in a public Transportation Research Board (TRB) meeting, U.S. Coast Guard representatives criticized the FAA, saying the revisions may increase the risk of a serious accident between helicopters. The Air Current reports that USCG pilots suggested that “the FAA did not adequately weigh the risks of a helicopter-on-helicopter collision when moving to eliminate helicopter routes and change airspace procedures to protect against close calls between rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft.”  The changes put helicopters closer together and made it harder for crews to train for proficiency. The pilots said there was an increased risk of helicopter controlled flight into terrain. In a written statement, FAA assistant administrator for communications Hannah Walden said, “Claims that these changes increased the risk of helicopter-to-helicopter collisions are not supported by the data.” She added that the FAA’s actions were guided by the National Transportation Safety Board’s emergency recommendations following the 2025 crash. The Transportation Research Board is part of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The Board seeks “to anticipate and solve complex transportation-related challenges.” This is accomplished through more than 5,500 engineers, scientists, and other transportation researchers and practitioners from the public and private sectors and academia. The program is supported by state departments of transportation, federal agencies, and other organizations and individuals. Air Force picks General Atomics, Anduril to build first CCA drone wingmen The Air Force selected General Atomics and Anduril to build the U.S. military’s first Collaborative Combat Aircraft, beating out Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman in a re-solicited competition. The Anduril FQ-44A Furry and the General Atomics FQ-42A Dark Merlin will be fielded as production aircraft. The acquisition strategy is unique in that the Air Force is pursuing a “software sold separately” approach, in which the purchase of the airframe and the CCA’s mission autonomy software are decoupled.

Canada Throws A Curveball As It Signals Interest In Joining GCAP Sixth-Gen Fighter Program In a Tokyo meeting, David McGuinty, the Minister of National Defense of Canada, said he is “interested in learning more about” the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP). That next-generation fighter program is a joint venture with BAE Systems (UK), Leonardo (Italy), and Japan Aircraft Industrial Enhancement Co Ltd (JAIEC). Each holds a one-third share in Edgewing. The Tempest is a crewed fighter with a targeted service date of 2035. A demonstrator is currently underway with BAE Systems in the UK. McGuinty said, “I'll take it back to my team and see what it looks ‌like.” The speculation is that Canada could join the GCAP program with “observer status.” FAA Proposes to Speed New Commercial Aircraft Certifications The FAA recently proposed changes to modernize and harmonize commercial aircraft certification rules with EASA. The proposal would provide consistent requirements and reduce the cost, time, and complexity of certifications. This would streamline certification and benefit manufacturers. Aircraft Certification: Comparison of U.S. and European Processes for Approving New Designs of Commercial Transport Airplanes The U.S. Government Accountability Office issued GAO-22-104480 on June 30, 2022. The study directly compared FAA and EASA certification processes and found a significant asymmetry that harmonization could eliminate in the wrong direction. EASA uses a risk-based approach to evaluate compliance findings and reviews the technical basis for compliance determinations, including oversight of all aspects of the airplane’s design. The FAA, by contrast, reviews the completeness of certification packages and compliance determinations in high-risk areas, but this review does not customarily include an independent review of the technical basis for compliance determinations. American Airlines flight aborts takeoff in Miami after business jet enters the same runway After American Airlines Flight 308 bound for Bermuda received takeoff clearance at Miami, the flight crew observed NetJets Flight EJA434 entering the same runway and aborted their takeoff. Addressing the NetJets plane, the controller said, “You just crossed an active runway.” The pilot responded, “You just told me to cross the runway, sir.” The controller said, “No, we said Amerijet 461.” National Air and Space Museum Celebrates 50 Years With Opening of Five New Galleries Hillel attended the National Air & Space Museum media preview for the opening of the five new galleries. He recorded the opening remarks by Christopher Browne, the John and Adrienne Mars Director of the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum. Chris joined the museum as deputy director in 2017 and served as acting director from 2021 to 2022, when he was named director. Hillel also interviewed Carolyn Russo, the curator of the art and trophy collections and the temporary curator of the poster collection. She has over 30 years of experience at the Museum, and is the author of four books: Art of the Airport Tower (Washington, DC: Smithsonian Books, 2015), In Plane View: Abstractions of Flight (New York: powerHouse Books, 2007), Artifacts of Flight (New York: Harry N. Abrams, 2003), and Women and Flight: Portraits of Contemporary Women Pilots (Boston, New York, London: Bulfinch Press, 1997).

We are breaking down the entire short-list and ranking, review, and digging into the 2026 Nebula Novel nominees from worst to best. We dive deep into the writing styles, the structure, the highs, the frustratingly bad endings, and reveal exactly who took home the final trophy. Are these books actually masterclasses in modern sci-fi and fantasy, or did the hype train leave the tracks?  Here is our definitive 2026 Nebula breakdown:  7. Death of the Author by Nnedi Okorafor  You should read it if: You love deep-dives into African culture, Ibo and Yoruba roots, and tech concepts like futuristic exoskeleton legs. You shouldn't read it if: You require a persistent central conflict, cohesive subplots, or a "story-within-a-story" that actually goes somewhere. 6. Wearing the Lion by John Wiswell You should read it if: You want a cozy Hercules retelling where Hera calls Zeus a "dipshit" and Heracles tries to befriend mythological monsters instead of fighting them. You shouldn't read it if: You get annoyed by overly preachy or cloying endings, repetitive quest structures, or confusing second-person POV shifts. 5. Katabasis by R. F. Kuang  You should read it if: You are obsessed with dark academia themes, the dangers of academic flow states, and complex, highly allusional world-building. You shouldn't read it if: You need to deeply connect with your protagonists or get easily annoyed by writing that feels a little too self involved. 4. When We Were Real by Daryl Gregory You should read it if: You love quick, humorous POV switches, AGI, simulation theory, and brain emulation concepts. You shouldn't read it if: You are looking for a groundbreaking, deeply unique masterpiece—this one is cute, but a bit unspecial. 3. Sour Cherry by Natalia Theodoridou You should read it if: You like heavy foreshadowing, experimental voice-switching (shifting to 2nd person), and intense meta-narratives. You shouldn't read it if: You hate a massive buildup that doesn't actually come together or stick the landing at the end. 1. (TIED) The Incandescent by Emily Tesh You should read it if: You want adult-oriented cozy fantasy in a magic boarding school featuring a workaholic, middle-aged bisexual teacher and casual, biscuit-eating printer demons. You shouldn't read it if: A rushed, abrupt ending with a thin villain motivation is going to completely sour your overall enjoyment of a great setup. 1. (TIED & WINNER) The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones You should read it if: You want a beautifully written, highly literary Native American Blackfoot vampire revenge story set in the brutal landscape of the American West. You shouldn't read it if: You get bored by a monotonous middle section where the central premise loses steam and repeats itself. No spoilers anywhere in this episode.

Send us Fan MailSeptember 1999. On the small south-east Asian island of Timor, demands for independence from Indonesia which had ruled over the population there since annexing it in 1976 had grown to such an extent as to spark open violence between those who wished to remain Indonesian and those who wanted the island to take control of its own future. This forced the United Nations to intervene, creating a peacekeeping force predominantly led by Australian defence forces to intervene and secure an open and fair referendum on independence. To assist with this difficult task, the Australian government turned to its two longest and most natural allies namely New Zealand and the United Kingdom for assistance. Dubbed the International Force for East Timor or INTERFET, it included a special operations detachment which arrived in theatre aboard a Royal Australian Air Force C-130 Hercules transport flying out of Darwin, Australia. Disembarking from the aircraft in their specially modified Land Rover Defenders was the small British contingent of around 20 troops who were captured briefly on camera by a news crew. For the British civilian population back home, this was one of the first real glimpses they'd had of arguably their country's most secretive special forces units – the Special Boat Squadron or SBS. In this episode, we are going to examine the often-overlooked origins of the SBS and cast some light on this most shadowy of groups. Welcome to Wars of the World.Support the show

Many astronomical discoveries have come in stages – a series of “aha” moments where we learn more about the nature of an object. A good example is Messier 13, the Great Hercules Cluster. Under especially dark skies, it’s just visible to the unaided eye, so people have known about it forever. It looks like a faint, hazy star. But during the 1700s, the cluster was “discovered” several times. The first discovery was made by Edmond Halley. Using a small telescope, he came across it in 1714. He described it as “a little patch.” Charles Messier saw it a half-century later. He described it as “round, beautiful, and brilliant.” But, he wrote, “I am sure it doesn’t contain any star.” He made it the 13th object in his catalog. In 1779, though, William Herschel contradicted Messier. M13 “is a most beautiful cluster of stars,” he wrote. Many other discoveries have followed. They’ve told us that M13 contains hundreds of thousands of stars packed into a tight ball. And the cluster is ancient – 12 billion years old or older. Messier 13 is 25,000 light-years away. In early evening, look in the east-northeast for the Keystone of Hercules – a lopsided “square” of stars. M13 is between the two stars at the top of that pattern, a bit closer to the one on the left – a giant cluster that’s still producing amazing discoveries. Script by Damond Benningfield

How did Louis XIV use his day-to-day life, especially his marriage, to help create the mythology of the Sun King as semi-divine, radiant and unrivalled?In 17th-century France, monarchy was performed, witnessed, and widely circulated. Using portraits, medals, sculptures and official pamphlets, Louis XIV meticulously constructed his own image, appearing as Apollo, Jupiter, Hercules, Neptune, a Roman emperor, and even as the sun itself. Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Dr. Abby Zanger explore the Sun King's carefully staged world.More:Marie AntoinetteListen on AppleListen on SpotifyMontaigne: Philosopher of the French RenaissanceListen on AppleListen on SpotifyPresented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

A pair of eyes stares down from the northeast as night falls now – the eyes of Draco, the dragon. They’re to the upper left of brilliant Vega, one of the night sky’s most prominent stars. The brighter eye is the star Eltanin, the dragon’s leading light. The name means “the serpent,” because the star once represented the entire dragon. Eltanin is an orange giant. It’s a good bit bigger, heavier, and brighter than the Sun. That makes it easy to see even though it’s more than 150 light-years away. The star should get a lot easier to see in the coming millennia. That’s because Eltanin and the Sun are moving closer together. In about one and a half million years, they’ll be at their closest – just 28 light-years apart. Assuming Eltanin hasn’t changed much by then, it’ll be the brightest star in the night sky – about as bright as the current champ, Sirius. The other eye, Rastaban, is just above Eltanin. Its name means “head of the serpent.” It’s more than twice as far as Eltanin. It, too, is a giant, but it’s much bigger and brighter – a thousand times as bright as the Sun. So it looks only a little fainter than Eltanin despite the extra distance. The rest of Draco curves to the left and above the dragon’s eyes, and curls around Polaris, the North Star. The eyes stare in the opposite direction – toward Hercules, who killed the dragon before both of them were placed in the heavens. Script by Damond Benningfield

SCHEDULE OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 5-7-2026.1945 BERLIN.Ian Buruma discusses his book Stay Alive, focusing on his father Leo's 1943 decision to enter mandatory labor in a Berlin factory to protect his parents from Nazi retaliation. The narrative explores Berlin's transition from a striving capital into a city facing bombings, malnutrition, and lice. (1/16)Ian Buruma describes Joseph Goebbels as a master propagandist who used entertainment to distract Berliners from wartime horrors. He explains "unpolitical" as a psychological justification for ignoring Nazi atrocities. The segment also details the complex Nuremberg racial laws used to systematically categorize and persecute Jewish populations. (2/16)Ian Buruma defines the wartime greeting "Stay Alive" and profiles resistors like von Moltke. He discusses jazz guitarist Coco Schumann, who survived Auschwitz by playing in a band while others were executed. The segment also covers the Wannsee Conference, where the "final solution" was organized. (3/16)Ian Buruma details the "U-boats," young Jews living clandestine lives in Berlin without legal papers. He describes the city's descent into lawlessness following the defeat at Stalingrad. Survival became transactional, relying on the goodwill or opportunism of strangers in a society where Hitler was the law. (4/16)Ian Buruma examines the failure of strategic bombing to break civilian morale, which instead fostered solidarity. He recounts his father's letters from a Berlin labor barracks, describing the harsh conditions of malnutrition and vermin. He also highlights diaries showing how individuals navigated the criminal regime. (5/16)Ian Buruma discusses the moral dilemmas of survival, focusing on Stella Kübler, who betrayed other Jews to save her parents from Auschwitz. He asserts that information about the Holocaust was widely available via the BBC and soldiers' letters, meaning that for many Berliners, ignorance was a choice. (6/16)Ian Buruma recounts the final months of the war, dominated by Goebbels' "death cult" propaganda and the film Colberg. He describes the trial of resistor von Moltke, who stood up to the sadistic judge Roland Freisler, and the eventual bombing of the court that killed the judge. (7/16)Ian Buruma details the Soviet occupation of Berlin, characterized by mass looting and rape. He tracks the fates of his book's protagonists: his father Leo narrowly escaped execution by a Russian soldier, while resistance leader Borchardtwas tragically killed by a stray shot after liberation. (8/16)Anatol Lieven analyzes China's diplomatic strategy, noting Beijing's desire for a Trump-Xi summit despite Middle Eastern conflicts. China aims to manage trade tariffs and stabilize Taiwan relations, believing that U.S. involvement in external wars may ultimately weaken American alliances in Asia and strengthen China's regional standing. (9/16)Anatol Lieven analyzes reports of Vladimir Putin operating from bunkers to avoid precision strikes. He discusses Ukraine's emergence as a "drone war startup" and the resulting economic strain. Lieven notes that while the frontline remains frozen, Russian public support for the conflict is beginning to crumble. (10/16)Rick Fisher reveals China's plans to double the size of the Tiangong space station by 2030. He warns of its military dual-use potential, suggesting the station and Shuntan telescope could serve as orbital "battle stations" for surveillance or strikes, providing China with a significant new strategic deterrent. (11/16)Rick Fisher explores the militarization of the Moon, citing Chinese interest in lunar radar and "moon hoppers" for resource discovery. He describes a technological competition with the U.S. involving nuclear power plants, lasers, and satellite constellations intended for both peaceful research and potential offensive or defensive combat. (12/16)Veronique de Rugy critiques government-matched savings plans like the "Trump IRA." She argues these technocratic fixes add to the national debt without addressing core tax code flaws. She highlights how high penalties for early withdrawals and payroll taxes effectively discourage lower-income workers from saving for the future. (13/16)Jim McTague examines the AI boom, noting the high valuation of DeepSeek and its use of black-market chips. He discusses a lawsuit against Character AI for unlicensed medical advice and the economic impact of data centers, which provide local tax revenue but consume significant real estate. (14/16)Ken Croswell describes the Milky Way's structure as a barred spiral galaxy. He explains that the central bar exerts massive gravitational force. This gravity has trapped billions of "Trojan stars" into two vast whirlpools, similar to how Jupiter's gravity captures Trojan asteroids in its orbit. (15/16)Ken Croswell details the discovery of the "Hercules stream," stars resonating with the galaxy's central bar. He notes that as the bar's rotation slows, there is a 20% chance Earth's solar system will join this "exclusive club" of Trojan stars in two billion years, changing our galactic position. (16/16)

Big Sal from Peshtigo is in the recliner, meatball sandwich in hand, and he is FIRED UP. ESPN Milwaukee and ESPN Madison — the hometown guys, the cheese curd crowd — are calling the Lukas Van Ness fifth-year option a bust move. Thirteen point eight million dollars guaranteed, and they're calling it stupid. Sal is here to tell them exactly how wrong they are, receipts in hand, like a man returning a busted toaster oven. Van Ness posted 23 pressures in a half season on a busted foot — a career high — and ten pressures in his final three games. That's not a bust. That's Hercules warming up. The market context is damning for the critics: Kingsley Enagbare just got TEN million for ONE year from the Jets. Van Ness at thirteen point eight for two years is a bargain by comparison. With Rashan Gary traded to Dallas, Kingsley gone, and Micah Parsons rehabbing a torn ACL, the Packers needed Van Ness. The runway is finally clear — and Gutey made sure it wasn't empty.
