President accused of having ‘lost control of this war’ as deaths of trio in Iranian military strikes fuel rising concern

Democrats have seized on the deaths of three US troops killed in Iranian strikes to urge Donald Trump to urgently reverse his resumption of the war with Iran amid widespread anxiety over climbing casualties.

Even as US forces launched a 10th consecutive wave of attacks against Iranian targets, concern over the deaths of American service personnel threatened to complicate moves to escalate the conflict, which has reignited after he last week walked away from a memorandum of understanding agreed with Iran in June.

Daniel Ortega, the 80-year-old authoritarian leader, says move will ‘build a wall’ against the opposition

Nicaragua’s long-serving president, Daniel Ortega, has said the country will hold no further elections to prevent the opposition from coming to power.

Turmoil likely as Trump officials say Canada unfairly discriminated against US autos, alcohol and dairy products

Donald Trump is imposing 50% tariffs on most Canadian goods in response to the country retaliating against previous US tariffs, the White House announced on Monday, declaring Canada has unfairly discriminated against American cars, alcohol and dairy products.

The tariffs will hit a wide range of products, the White House said, including wine, hockey sticks and cement. They also include goods previously protected from import taxes under the United States-Mexico-Canada (USMCA) agreement.

Darline Graham, the South Carolina interim senator and sister of the late Lindsey Graham, said she plans to run for a full Senate term after Donald Trump endorsed her last week.

In an interview with Sean Hannity that will air in full on Monday, Graham – who was appointed by Governor Henry McMaster to finish the remainder of her brother’s term – said she had “made a decision”.

Israeli prime minister is subject of an arrest warrant issued by international criminal court over alleged war crimes in Gaza

Donald Trump has said Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, “will not be arrested” if he visits the US.

Alpine ski resorts in New South Wales and Victoria saw climate records shattered at the weekend with maximum temperatures up to 12C above average.

Ski areas of Mount Hotham and Falls Creek set July records for their hottest daytime and night-time temperatures and Thredbo also set a new hottest July day, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.

We want to see more Australian ideas commercialised, more Australian technology deployed globally, and more of the economic value harnessed here at home.

На текущий момент можно считать, что не имеется некоммерческих библиотек или компонентов, позволяющих создать качественный gRPC-клиент (автор, конечно же, в курсе про «DelphiGrpc», но в нынешнем виде полагает её малопригодной для практического использования – хотя бы из-за устаревших версий зависимостей); во многом остроту данной проблемы снимают платные решения – давно существующий компонент TipwGRPC, а также относительно недавно появившийся TsgcGRPCClient. В связи с этим, если по каким-то причинам применение коммерческих вариантов невозможно, то потребуется реализовать указанный клиент своими силами, для чего в статье рассмотрен лишь начальный (но довольно-таки важный) этап разработки: а как, собственно говоря, использующий клиент станет вызывать gRPC-методы – посредством каких функций или процедур, какие параметры они будут требовать, и далее в таком духе? В грубом приближении, что должно быть в этом прототипе вместо многоточий?

function CallMethod(...): ...;

Надо заметить, что представленное здесь рассчитано больше не на универсальные gRPC-клиенты, а скорее специализированные – когда работа всегда ведётся либо с одним и тем же сервером, либо с несколькими похожими и без кардинальной разницы – их возможные нюансы можно не выносить в настройки клиента, заложив непосредственно в код реализации, а оставшиеся немногочисленные параметры указывать прямо в CallMethod.

Также хочется проговорить явно, чтобы читатель не имел ложных надежд, – материал совершенно не содержит ответа на вопрос «как», тут только предложен вариант программного интерфейса к gRPC-клиенту (весьма подробно, однако, расписанный).

The United States, Mexico, and Canada co-hosted the nearly six-week tournament. NPR's team of journalists who covered the World Cup reflects on the experience.

Сейчас часто можно услышать мнение, что LLM и AI-агенты способны значительно снизить стоимость разработки. Вместо того чтобы расширять команду, достаточно дать задачу модели, и она выполнит работу за минуты.

Мне кажется, в этой идее есть рациональное зерно, но есть одно важное уточнение, которое я вынес из личных наблюдений за последние месяцы.

• Leandro Paredes was shown red card after final whistle

• Fifa looking into Falklands banner at England game

Fifa has opened an investigation into the violent scenes that followed Spain’s World Cup final win on Sunday, with several Argentina players facing bans.

Nahuel Molina appeared to strike Spain’s captain Rodri in the stomach as he ran on to the pitch following the final whistle, while there was also a large melee on the halfway line, where Leandro Paredes appeared to grab Eric García by the throat before throwing Gavi to the ground.

A team of firefighters saved the pup from the water in a mission that utilized boats, trucks and a drone

Firefighters rescued a small dog that had been missing for weeks after finding it swimming into the San Francisco Bay.

The dog had gone missing over the Fourth of July weekend, according to the Menlo Park fire protection district. But someone called 911 on 16 July to say they had seen a dog enter the bay near the Dumbarton Bridge in East Palo Alto.

A Seven producer urged Pauline Hanson to travel to Britain to meet Nigel Farage and film a Spotlight special highlighting so-called “uncontrolled immigration”, according to a pitch posted to social media by the One Nation leader.

The pitch also suggested that Seven might cover some of the travel costs for the One Nation leader and her team and that the program wanted the Reform UK leader to “invite Ms Hanson to Britain”.
