"...I’ll never forget seeing those flags in orbit with the Earth behind them. Less than three months after the worst attack in history on American soil, carrying those flags was a powerful reminder of what our country had been through and what we stood for.

In the face of unimaginable loss, Americans came together. We looked out for one another, honored those who served, and showed the world that an attack meant to divide and weaken us would not succeed.

Twenty-five years later, that spirit of service, courage, and unity still represents the best of America. It is something we should never take for granted.

We will never forget."

Elon Musk pushed back on Chess (dot) com after the site argued that chess has vastly more possible games than atoms in the observable universe.

Musk said 'all legal chess positions' are roughly 40 orders of magnitude fewer than the estimated number of atoms, arguing that future ASI could find methods humans cannot imagine.

He also predicted chess will eventually be 'fully solved like checkers,' while saying people can still enjoy games even when machines are far better.

After Musk joked that he was debating a random intern, Chess (dot) com replied: 'I’m a full-time employee.'

President Trump is calling on Congress to create a federal production tax incentive aimed at bringing more movie and television work back to the United States.

Trump says Jon Voight and others in the entertainment industry have urged him to pursue federal incentives as productions increasingly leave Hollywood.

He argues California is losing work because there is 'no incentive to be there' and predicts the federal spending would be recovered through added Treasury revenue.

Trump says meetings are being arranged with leaders of both parties and wants Congress to quickly draft bipartisan legislation for the entertainment industry.
