Hamed Aleaziz, who covers immigration policy for The Times, goes inside one ICE operation and explains why the tensions over Mr. Trump’s aggressive approach may only get worse.
Guest: Hamed Aleaziz, who covers the Department of Homeland Security and immigration policy in the United States for The New York Times.

If you are listening to me speak these words and can understand what I’m saying, then you are a human being. If you are a human being, you are also a mammal, and if you are a mammal, you have hair….or at least the biological capability to produce hair.
But why exactly do we have hair? What function does it serve? Why do we have less than other animals? And why do people have different types of hair?
Learn more about hair, what it does, and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
It is impossible to overstate how hellish life in Gaza has been for the past 20 months.
The death count is above 50,000 people — more than 15,000 of whom are children — and at least 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.1 million people have been displaced over and over again. Starvation is rampant. Hospitals are either damaged or closed; there are only 2,000 remaining hospital beds.
Nearly two years after the atrocities of Oct. 7, Israel still has no plan for the day after the conflict ends. Instead, it is escalating its assault on what remains of Hamas and seizing territory to expand its security buffer zone.

In the West Bank, meanwhile, settler violence has increased sharply, and new settlements are moving forward at a record pace.
Ehud Olmert, the prime minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009, recently published a searing opinion essay in Haaretz, one of Israel’s most influential newspapers: “Enough Is Enough.

If you're looking to leverage the insane power of modern GPUs for data science and ML, you might think you'll need to use some low-level programming language such as C++. But the folks over at NVIDIA have been hard at work building Python SDKs which provide nearly native level of performance when doing Pythonic GPU programming. Bryce Adelstein Lelbach is here to tell us about programming your GPU in pure Python.
