中国官媒《环球时报》前总编辑胡锡进说，强制社保引发退休金不公平讨论后反对声变大，体制内人群退休金是农民上百倍，这是让人遗憾的中国社会现实，但强制社保“绝对是国家善意”，“不要被激进言论忽悠”。
胡锡进星期天（8月10日）在微博发文称，强制社保一开始是一些企业担心负担过重，但这两天话题焦点被引向退休金的不公平上，反对声一下子大了起来。
他提到，有人拿农民每月只有100元（人民币，下同，约18新元）至200元退休金为例，抨击社保改革乃至社保体系。比如有人写道，体制内人群每月上万元退休金，是农民的几十上百倍。还有人称，在城里工作一个月至少要交1000多块的社保，但家乡的老父亲每月只有一两百块钱退休金。
胡锡进说：“这是我们社会的现实，非常让人遗憾。做这样的对比，以建设性的态度激励国家要不断扩大社会福利体系，不断改善农村父老乡亲的生活水平，是对的，积极的。”
他指出，中国的进步决不能甩下农村父老乡亲，但需要多路并举，只有经济发展强大，提高农民生活质量和农民养老金才会有基础。“强制社保是在农村以外广大地区公平建设的重大举措，同样是在推动国家进步，我们应当支持。”
胡锡进认为，在推进强制社保的改革中，被纳入进来最多的无疑是进城打工的农民工，他们之前被雇主拒上社保的情况最多。“他们将因此而集体受益，权益得到保护，老有所养，这也是中国解决农村问题的一个路径。”
他说：“据我了解，进城打工的人里头，无论快递员，还是家政服务者，几乎没有人不愿意加入社保的，因为社保是中国不断进步的最大福利体系。它仍有缺点和不足，比如一些人批评的体制内和体制外社保差距这一历史遗留问题，它是需要不断改革和缩小的，中国也的确在做这方面的努力。”
在胡锡进看来，中国在人均财力还远不如发达国家的情况下，已经在拿发达国家的福利体系做参照自我鞭策。“强制社保就是从发达国家引入的经验。这个时候，一些企业担心负担过重，有其真实的部分，但是一些人拿农村地区的低退休金做理由，反对包括大量农民工参与的社保体系进步的合理性，这就不应该了。”
胡锡进认为，两者的指向并不一样，强制社保首先是对雇主的要求，不允许任何雇主不给员工上社保，不许他们剥夺劳动者的基本权利，“这绝对是国家的善意”。
他说：“中国是共产党领导的国家，这个国家的性质决定了民生领域的重大决策一定会朝着对最大多数人民群众有利的方向来做出。如果有人连这一点都怀疑，他的价值体系和判断力就很容易出问题。所以，请不要被一些激进言论忽悠了。”
中国社保强制缴纳政策9月1日起生效，任何规避缴纳社保的用工协议或承诺都将被认定无效，料对中国为数众多的餐饮、商铺等小微企业造成冲击。
随着人口老龄化加剧，中国领取养老金的人数越来越多，而缴纳养老金的人数增长缓慢，社保体系的可持续性面临严峻考验，目前中国正采取多种方式保证未来的收支平衡。
美国科技巨头英伟达H20晶片被中国官媒指不安全不先进“我们可以不买”后，公司再度重申晶片不存在“后门”。中国官媒则持续发难称，英伟达已三次做出类似回应，需要进一步的行动来印证。
定位为“中美贸易战对美斗争需要”的中国央视新媒体“玉渊谭天”，星期一（8月11日）在微博发文称，“玉渊谭天”星期天（10日）“起底H20晶片可能存在的后门”后，英伟达回应称：“网络安全对我们至关重要，英伟达的晶片不存在‘后门’，不会让任何人通过远程方式访问或控制晶片。”
“玉渊谭天”称，自中国国家互联网信息办公室7月31日约谈英伟达，要求说明晶片的漏洞或后门的安全风险问题以来，英伟达已三次做出类似回应，均强调网络安全对英伟达至关重要，晶片不存在“后门”。“这样的回应需要英伟达用进一步的行动来印证。”
“玉渊谭天”指美国曾就人工智能晶片开“后门”的事情有过一整套系统性的考虑。“美方还特别提到，如果企业配合美国政府安后门，那美国政府可以将其排除在出口管制之外，其中就有放宽对中国低风险客户的出口。”
“玉渊谭天”星期天曾发文介绍，后门主要分为硬件后门和软件后门。硬件后门是晶片在设计或制造时留下的物理装置，主要是具有后门功能的逻辑电路；软件后门可理解为在软件中植入具有后门功能的指令，通过运行软件来对用户的系统造成破坏、窃取机密等。
文章以英伟达H20晶片为例说，“单从硬件‘后门’角度考虑，就完全可以实现‘远程关闭’等功能”，并称：“美国政府允许英伟达出口H20到中国，不免有些细思极恐。无论从哪个角度讲，H20对于中国来说，都算不上是一款安全的晶片。”
文章总结道，H20晶片既不环保，也不先进，更不安全。“作为消费者，我们当然可以选择，不买。”
中共中央机关报《人民日报》8月1日也发表题为《英伟达，让我怎么相信你？》的评论文章，称英伟达回应归回应，唯有按照约谈要求拿出令人信服的安全证明，才能消除中国用户的后顾之忧，重获市场信任，强调绝不能让“带病”晶片上岗。
彭博社分析，《人民日报》的警告可能表明，中国官员认为，性能不如英伟达最先进晶片的H20不值得采购。
法新社的报道则指出，随着中美紧张关系加剧，中国国家主席习近平已要求加快自立自强，尤其是在AI和半导体等关乎国家安全的关键领域。
H20是英伟达专门为中国市场制造的晶片。美国政府7月推翻了4月的出口禁令，允许英伟达恢复向中国销售H20。
英国《金融时报》星期天（8月10日）引述一名美国官员称，英伟达将向美政府上缴销华H20晶片的15%收入，以确保获得向中国市场输出晶片的许可证。
亲绿的台湾民意基金会发布的最新民调结果显示，逾六成民众不赞成大罢免，8月23日的第二波罢免投票，反罢方居绝对上风。
台湾首波大罢免投票7月26日举行，24名国民党立委和新竹市的民众党籍市长高虹安均安全过关。第二波罢免投票将于8月23日举行，届时面对挑战的是七名国民党立委，当天也将举行重启核三案的公投。
综合台湾《联合报》和ETtoday新闻云等报道，台湾民意基金会星期一（8月11日）发布的最新民调结果显示，61.4%受访民众不赞成大罢免，24%不太赞成，37.4%一点也不赞成；31.7%表示赞成，16.9%非常赞成，14.8%还算赞成；5.4%没意见，1.5%不知道、拒答。不赞成人数比赞成人数多29.7个百分点。
台湾民意基金会董事长游盈隆指出，目前不赞成大罢免与赞成的差距是上个月的五倍。在台湾，一个百分点约等于19.5万人，7月26日大罢免结果出炉后，赞成大罢免的人遽减10个百分点，不赞成的人飙升13.4个百分点，等于赞成大罢免者急遽减少近200万人，不赞成者急遽增加260万人以上。
民调指出，从罢免区角度，不赞成者比赞成者多37.6个百分点，显示罢区主流民意不赞成罢免比例比全台更高。
游盈隆认为，这项发现无疑是726第一波大罢免大杠龟的政治后果。
对于第二波罢免的选民投票意向，民调结果发现，75.4%受访民众表示会去投票，其中57.1%一定会，18.3%可能会；有20.5%不会去投票，其中10.8%一定不会，9.7%可能不会；2%没意见，2%不知道、拒答。
游盈隆称，这项发现显示第二波大罢免的投票参与热情依然高涨，宣称会去投票者高达七成五，意味第二波大罢免投票率仍上看五成以上。
若明天投票，民众的投票倾向虽然是53.1%同意罢免、33.8%不同意罢免，但是在罢免区，倾向投不同意罢免者比投同意罢免者多22.7个百分点，暗示反罢免方将再一次赢得全面性胜利。
这次民调的访问期间为8月4日至6日；对象是全台20岁以上成年人。
Heather Hamilton / @cornwallunderwaterThe UK's seas have had their warmest start to the year since records began, helping to drive some dramatic changes in marine life and for its fishing communities.
The average surface temperature of UK waters in the seven months to the end of July was more than 0.2C higher than any year since 1980, BBC analysis of provisional Met Office data suggests.
That might not sound much, but the UK's seas are now considerably warmer than even a few decades ago, a trend driven by humanity's burning of fossil fuels.
That is contributing to major changes in the UK's marine ecosystems, with some new species entering our seas and others struggling to cope with the heat.
Scientists and amateur naturalists have observed a remarkable range of species not usually widespread in UK waters, including octopus, bluefin tuna and mauve stinger jellyfish.
The abundance of these creatures can be affected by natural cycles and fishing practices, but many researchers point to the warming seas as a crucial part of their rise.
"Things like jellyfish, like octopus... they are the sorts of things that you expect to respond quickly to climate change," said Dr Bryce Stewart, a senior research fellow at the Marine Biological Association in Plymouth.
"It's a bit like the canary in the coal mine - the sorts of quite extraordinary changes we've seen over the last few years really do indicate an ecosystem under flux," he added.
Harry Polkinghorne, a keen 19-year-old angler, described how he regularly sees bluefin tuna now, including large schools of the fish in frantic feeding frenzies.
"It's just like watching a washing machine in the water," he said. "You can just see loads of white water, and then tuna fins and tuna jumping out."
@TheFalAnglersBluefin tuna numbers have been building over the past decade in south-west England for a number of reasons, including warmer waters and better management of their populations, Dr Stewart explained.
Heather Hamilton, who snorkels off the coast of Cornwall virtually every week with her father David, has swum through large blooms of salps, a species that looks a bit like a jellyfish.
They are rare in the UK, but the Hamiltons have seen more and more of these creatures in the last couple of years.
"You're seeing these big chains almost glowing slightly like fairy lights", she said.
"It just felt very kind of out of this world, something I've never seen before."
Heather Hamilton / @cornwallunderwaterBut extreme heat, combined with historical overfishing, is pushing some of the UK's cold-adapted species like cod and wolf-fish to their limits.
"We're definitely seeing this shift of cooler water species moving north in general," said Dr Stewart.
Marine heatwave conditions - prolonged periods of unusually high sea surface temperatures - have been present around parts of the UK virtually all year.
Some exceptional sea temperatures have also been detected by measurement buoys off the UK coast, known as WaveNet and run by the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas).
And the record 2025 warmth comes after very high sea temperatures in 2023 and 2024 too.
The Met Office says its data from the end of June 2024 to now is provisional and will be finalised in the coming months, but this usually results in only very minor changes.
"All the way through the year, on average it's been warmer than we've really ever seen [for the UK's seas]," said Prof John Pinnegar, the lead adviser on climate change at Cefas.
"[The seas] have been warming for over a century and we're also seeing heatwaves coming through now," he added.
"What used to be quite a rare phenomenon is now becoming very, very common."
Like heatwaves on land, sea temperatures are affected by natural variability and short-term weather. Clear, sunny skies with low winds – like much of the UK had in early July - can heat up the sea surface more quickly.
But the world's oceans have taken up about 90% of the Earth's excess heat from humanity's emissions of planet-warming gases like carbon dioxide.
That is making marine heatwaves more likely and more intense.
"The main contributor to the marine heatwaves around the UK is the buildup of heat in the ocean," said Dr Caroline Rowland, head of oceans, cryosphere and climate change at the Met Office.
"We predict that these events are going to become more frequent and more intense in the future" due to climate change, she added.
With less of a cooling sea breeze, these warmer waters can amplify land heatwaves, and they also have the potential to bring heavier rainfall.
Hotter seas are also less able to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which could mean that our planet heats up more quickly.
The sea warmth is already posing challenges to fishing communities.
Ben Cooper has been a fisherman in Whitstable on the north Kent coast since 1997, and relies heavily on the common whelk, a type of sea snail.
But the whelk is a cold-water species, and a marine heatwave in 2022 triggered a mass die-off of these snails in the Thames Estuary.
"Pretty much 75% of our earnings is through whelks, so you take that away and all of a sudden you're struggling," explained Mr Cooper.
Philip Haupt / Kent & Essex Inshore Fisheries and Conservation AuthorityBefore the latest heatwave, the whelks had started to recover but he said the losses had forced him to scale back his business.
Mr Cooper recalled fishing trips with his father in the 1980s. Back then, they would rely on cod.
"We lost the cod because basically the sea just got too warm. They headed further north," he said.
The precise distribution of marine species varies from year to year, but researchers expect the UK's marine life to keep changing as humans continue to heat up the Earth.
"The fishers might in the long term have to change the species that they target and that they catch," suggested Dr Pinnegar.
"And we as consumers might have to change the species that we eat."

Al JazeeraFour Al Jazeera journalists have been killed in an Israeli strike near Gaza City's Al-Shifa Hospital, the broadcaster has said.
Correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqeh and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal were in a tent for journalists at the hospital's main gate when it was targeted, Al Jazeera reported.
A fortnight ago, it condemned the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for what it called a "campaign of incitement" against its reporters in Gaza, including al-Sharif.
Shortly after the strike, the IDF confirmed that it had struck Anas al-Sharif, posting on Telegram that he had "served as the head of a terrorist cell in Hamas".
The IDF did not mention any of the other journalists who were killed. The BBC has contacted Al Jazeera for comment.
Al-Sharif, 28, appeared to be posting on X in the moments before his death, warning of intense Israeli bombardment within Gaza City.
A post which was published after he was reported to have died appears to have been pre-written and published by a friend.
In two graphic videos of the aftermath of the strike, which have been confirmed by BBC Verify, men can be seen carrying the bodies of those who were killed. Some shout out Mohammed Qreiqeh's name, and a man wearing a press vest says that one of the bodies is that of Anas Al-Sharif.
In July, the Al Jazeera Media Network issued a statement denouncing "relentless efforts" by the IDF for an "ongoing campaign of incitement targeting Al Jazeera's correspondents and journalists in the Gaza Strip".
"The Network considers this incitement a dangerous attempt to justify the targeting of its journalists in the field," it added.
The IDF statement accused al-Sharif of posing as a journalist, and being "responsible for advancing rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF troops"
It said it had previously "disclosed intelligence" confirming his military affiliation, which included "lists of terrorist training courses".
"Prior to the strike, steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munition, aerial surveillance, and additional intelligence," the statement added.
According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, 186 journalists have been confirmed killed since the start of Israel's military offensive in Gaza in October 2023.

Arne Slot led Liverpool to the Premier League title in his first season in charge
Arne Slot's Liverpool 2.0 got their grand unveiling at Wembley on Sunday and the reviews are in. Occasionally brilliant, occasionally shambolic, with improvements needed.
Four of Liverpool's summer signings made their first competitive starts for the club in the Community Shield, which they lost on penalties to Crystal Palace.
Record £116m acquisition Florian Wirtz started in attacking midfield, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez formed a new-look full-back pairing, while Hugo Ekitike led the line as the central striker.
The only new face not in the starting XI was goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili, who was on the bench as Alisson kept his place.
And there were some clear signs the revamp may lead to spectacular results. The game finished 2-2, with the goals coming through Ekitike and Frimpong. It is the first time Liverpool have had two players score on their competitive debuts since August 2006, when Craig Bellamy and Mark Gonzalez netted against Maccabi Haifa.
But Liverpool 2.0 have bugs. They twice had leads pegged back, were often sloppy in defence, and were on the ropes towards the end.
"We have four new players - we need time to adapt," Slot said at his post-match media conference at Wembley.
In this regard, the Community Shield was not an isolated incident. In Monday's 3-2 friendly win against Athletic Bilbao, Liverpool conceded twice from set-pieces.
Palace arguably had only two big chances in this game - Jean-Philippe Mateta's 13th-minute penalty and Ismaila Sarr bursting through with 12 minutes to go. They scored both.
As Slot pithily said: "We don't concede chances, but we concede goals."
Jeremie Frimpong scored Liverpool's second goal after 21 minutes at Wembley
Let's start at the back. For years, especially under Jurgen Klopp, one of Liverpool's defining traits was the attacking impetus brought by full-backs Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson.
Frimpong and Kerkez are, in many ways, in a similar mould - much more attacking than traditional full-backs.
But, while Kerkez is near identical to Robertson in how he plays, Frimpong stays far wider than his predecessor. Don't expect many Alexander-Arnold-like adventures into central midfield - but do expect some good, old-fashioned overlapping runs.
This attacking sense led directly to Liverpool's second goal when Frimpong jinked into the area and chipped Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson. Whether he meant to score or not, the dash into the box was a spectacular and impudent piece of skill.
This graphic shows the average positions of Liverpool's starting XI against Crystal Palace at Wembley, with Frimpong in particular clearly hugging the right touchline to provide added width - almost like a winger at times
This graphic shows Liverpool's average positions against Tottenham in April - the last match Alexander-Arnold and Robertson started together. Alexander-Arnold, unlike Frimpong, played much more narrow. More on the rest of the team shortly...
1 of 2
However, in defence, issues remain. Liverpool will have hoped that Frimpong would bring the defensive solidity they sometimes lacked with Alexander-Arnold, but the Dutchman played Sarr onside for the second equaliser.
And it was not only at full-back where Liverpool looked defensively suspect. They were opened too easily before the first-half penalty - Mateta was set free by a through ball, leading to the attack which ended in Virgil van Dijk fouling Sarr.
There was not a recognised centre-back on Liverpool's bench. Jarell Quansah has departed for Bayer Leverkusen and Joe Gomez "has a minor injury".
Slot expects him to be back soon, but Liverpool need to sign at least one more central defender before the transfer deadline on 1 September.
The one they would like to sign captained the opposition at Wembley. Marc Guehi - subject of transfer speculation as he enters the last year of his contract - once again laid everything on the line for Palace before being subbed in the dying seconds because of cramp.
Moving into midfield, Wirtz was the outstanding Liverpool player at Wembley. Slot has clearly tweaked the system to suit their record signing - and the early signs are positive.
Wirtz has been given a role freer and further forward than Liverpool had previously from an attacking midfielder - they had nobody to do that role last season.
He almost formed a strike partnership with Ekitike at times, so close together were they. Indeed by the time he was substituted, Wirtz was playing as a false nine with Ekitike already taken off.
This freedom allowed the German to float wide left after four minutes, to pick up the ball and play in Ekitike for the opener.
There were 22 passes in the build-up to Liverpool's first goal, a move that lasted 66 seconds and involved nine players.
Until being taken off in the 84th minute, Wirtz looked perfectly balanced, always in control, never flustered. His influence all over the pitch for Liverpool is already clear.
At the point of his substitution, Wirtz led Liverpool for passes and entries in the final third, crosses and touches in the Palace box. He had the third most touches in total. Everything went through him.
"It has been a really impressive performance for Wirtz," former Palace striker Glenn Murray told BBC Radio 5 Live. "Very dominant.
"He was tiring by the end of it and that is something he will need to get used to. But he is looking like a very good signing."
This does put a question on Mohamed Salah's role in the team. The Egyptian has now not scored in eight Wembley appearances, had only one shot on target and in the shootout blazed his penalty over. But that is a question for another article.
This graphic showing Wirtz's range of passing illustrates just how influential he was - from just about everywhere across Palace's half of the pitch
But this heat map graphic also shows he naturally gravitated towards the left, linking up with Ekitike and Kerkez
1 of 2
In front of Wirtz, Ekitike has the makings of a genuine, out-and-out centre forward Liverpool simply did not have before because of Darwin Nunez's shortcomings.
His goal was well taken, and his cross with the outside of his boot in the first half that found Cody Gakpo in an offside position was sumptuous.
But one should remember that Nunez's debut also came in the Community Shield - the 2023 win over Manchester City. The Uruguayan scored, looked streets ahead of Erling Haaland - and never hit those heights again.
And there was a touch of Nunez about Ekitike spurning a header inside the six-yard box less than a minute into the second half, and another chance he blazed over from 12 yards. Take one of those, and Liverpool win.
Ekitike scored the quickest goal in a Community Shield since Gary McAllister for Liverpool versus Manchester United in 2001
"Always nice to score a goal, but it would have been even nicer to win a game," Slot said of his new frontman.
"Ekitike had a good impact, but he came two weeks ago during the Asia tour. But he had a good game for sure."
So who will Liverpool add in the final three weeks of the transfer window? One name is on everyone's lips - Alexander Isak.
At times on Sunday, it looked as if the last thing Liverpool needed was another first-choice striker. But as Palace celebrated in the sun, the appeal of the wantaway Newcastle forward became clearer.
"Liverpool want another striker," former Reds goalkeeper Chris Kirkland told BBC Sport after the game. "We're all greedy. Every team wants as many strikers as they can.
"Liverpool want Isak, they have bid for him, and he wants to go. Normally, when that is the case, a deal gets done. I'd want a centre-back and a forward because we are all greedy in this world!"
This video can not be played
Do Liverpool need Alexander Isak?
There were also weaknesses deeper in midfield for Liverpool, but they are a cheaper fix.
Ryan Gravenberch was absent because his partner was giving birth, while Alexis Mac Allister was only fit enough for a cameo off the bench.
Curtis Jones lined up alongside Dominik Szoboszlai in holding midfield, and completed all 53 of his passes.
"Gravenberch was a massive miss today - he was my player of the season last year," said Kirkland.
There can be no question Liverpool will be disappointed to miss out on a trophy, especially against the side who finished 12th last season and have several injury issues, with Eddie Nketiah and Cheick Doucoure among those set to miss the start of the season.
But Reds fans should not take it too harshly. For starters, only one of the past 14 winners of the season opener have gone on to lift the Premier League trophy - Manchester City in 2018-19. In the Premier League era, only eight of the 33 winners of the Charity or Community Shield have gone on to win the title.
And in more relevant terms, Slot 2.0 is still at the troubleshooting stage - there are 38 product launches to come.
Getty ImagesChip giants Nvidia and AMD have agreed to pay the US government 15% of their semiconductor sales in China, the BBC has been told by a source close to the matter.
The agreement is part of a deal to secure export licences to the world's second biggest economy.
"We follow rules the US government sets for our participation in worldwide markets. While we haven't shipped H20 to China for months, we hope export control rules will let America compete in China and worldwide," Nvidia told the BBC.
AMD did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Under the agreement, Nvidia will pay 15% of its revenues from H20 chip sales in China to the US government, while AMD will give the same percentage from its MI308 chip revenues, which was first reported by the Financial Times.
Washington has previously banned the sale of Nvidia's H20 chips to Beijing over security concerns, although the firm recently announced that this would be reversed.
The H20 chip was developed specifically for the Chinese market after US export restrictions were imposed by the Biden administration in 2023. Its sale was effectively banned by the Trump administration in April this year.
Nvidia's chief executive Jensen Huang has spent months lobbying both sides for a resumption of sales of the chips in China.

Sergen Sezgin/Anadolu via Getty ImagesOne person has died in Turkey after a magnitude 6.1 earthquake struck the north-west province of Balikesir on Sunday evening.
An 81-year-old woman passed away shortly after she was pulled out from rubble in the town of Sindirgi, which was the epicentre of the quake, Turkey's interior minister said.
Sixteen buildings collapsed as a result of the tremors, and 29 people had been injured, Ali Yerlikaya added.
Turkey's disaster management agency said the quake was recorded at around 19:53 local time (16:53 GMT), and was felt as far away as Istanbul.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan issued a statement wishing a swift recovery to everyone who was affected, and said that all recovery efforts were being closely monitored.
"May God protect our country from any kind of disaster," he wrote on X.
Search and rescue operations have now concluded, and the interior minister said that there were no other signs of serious damage or casualties.
Pictures from Sindirgi, however, show large buildings totally flattened and towering piles of twisted metal and debris.
Berkan Cetin/Anadolu via Getty ImagesSergen Sezgin/Anadolu via Getty ImagesTurkey is located at the intersection of three major tectonic plates, and experiences frequent seismic activity as a result.
In February 2023, more than 50,000 people were killed when a 7.8 magnitude earthquake devastated the south-eastern region of the country.
A further 5,000 were killed in neighbouring Syria.
More than two years on from that quake, hundreds of thousands of people remain displaced.

据财联社报道，宁德时代星期一（8月11日）证实，位于江西宜春的枧下窝矿区采矿资质星期六（9日）到期，目前已暂停开采作业。根据有关法律要求，需要办理延续申请。不过宜春其他主要矿区还在正常生产经营中。
宁德时代在投资者互动平台称，待获批后将尽早恢复生产，对公司整体经营影响不大。
宁德时代是全球最大汽车电池制造商，公司枧下窝矿区因产能规模较大，是中国锂供应激增的重要源头，采矿证到期后会否停产一直受到市场关注。
彭博社星期天（10日）引述知情人士报道，矿区已停产且至少持续三个月。鉴于北京正加大力度控制各经济领域产能过剩的问题，相关报道引发市场对更大范围减产的预期。
因此，星期一开盘后中国锂价及澳大利亚的上市锂企股价双双上涨。彭博社引述交易员透露，广州期货交易所锂价开盘即上涨8%触及当日涨停，中国上市锂企股价涨幅达19%；澳洲上市锂企股价一度飙升25%。
市场目前关注电池金属生产中心宜春的其他矿区会否也受到采矿限制。此前，当地政府部门审计中发现矿产登记和审批流程存在违规后，已要求宜春八家涉锂矿山企业在9月底前完成储量核实报告编制。
分析认为，枧下窝矿区暂时停产尚未改变市场产能过剩的局面。不过，如果9月30日后宜春其他矿山的停产范围扩大，锂价或进一步走高。这个行业已受供应过剩困扰超过两年，供应链重要环节的暂时停产将是一大利好。
中国国家信访局局长李文章说，如果信访问题久拖未决，个别性事件可能激化为群体性事件，影响大局稳定；要正确处理维权和维稳的关系，从源头预防减少社会矛盾，引导群众理性合法表达利益诉求。
中共中央党校机关报《学习时报》星期一（8月11日）在头版头条刊发李文章署名文章《充分发挥信访工作反映社情民意“晴雨表”作用》。
文章称，信访制度是“中国民主政治制度的一项重要内容”，是群众权利救济的重要补充渠道，必须正确处理新形势下人民内部矛盾，努力把矛盾纠纷化解在基层、化解在萌芽状态，引导人民群众通过理性合法途径表达利益诉求、维护合法权益。
李文章指出，如果群众反映的信访问题久拖未决，个别性事件就可能激化为群体性事件，局部性问题就可能转化为全局性问题，非对抗性矛盾就可能转化为对抗性矛盾，不仅会影响社会和谐，还可能影响大局稳定。
他说：“我们必须始终从群众的立场考虑问题，加大保障和改善民生力度，妥善协调各方面利益关系，认真对待群众的合理合法诉求，正确处理好维权和维稳的关系，从源头上预防和减少社会矛盾。”
李文章认为，信访工作是维护权益、防范风险的重要渠道，要始终把解决好人民群众最关心最直接最现实的利益问题摆在突出位置，聚焦群众反映的急难愁盼问题，带着感情和责任为群众排忧解难，解决好影响国家安全、社会安定、人民安宁的信访突出问题，不断筑牢社会和谐稳定的坚实基础。
他也说，信访问题大多是关乎群众切身利益的民生问题，政策制定得好不好、问题解决得好不好，群众最有发言权。“把信访工作做到群众心坎上，让群众由衷感到权益受到公平对待、利益得到有效维护，赢得群众的信任和支持，厚植党的执政根基。”
李文章最后提出综合施策化解信访突出问题，准确把握信访矛盾复杂性、敏感性、突发性，分析研判信访形势和矛盾风险动向，压实属地、部门和领导责任，妥善消除各类问题隐患；开展领导干部接访下访，包案化解群众反映强烈的突出问题；推动建立健全政策性群体性信访问题、重点领域突出信访问题、疑难复杂信访问题协调化解机制，全力维护社会大局安全稳定。

由原兵器装备集团分立的中国新央企长安汽车董事长朱华荣，在履新的第11天到深圳拜访中国科技巨头华为创始人任正非，交流产业竞争态势和未来格局。
长安汽车董事长朱华荣上周六（8月9日）在微博发文称，他上周五（8日）前往深圳拜访华为创始人任正非，围绕产业竞争态势、未来竞争格局等交流学习。当天是朱华荣履新长安汽车集团董事长的第11天。
朱华荣说：“任总还就支持长安汽车、阿维塔品牌等提出针对性、指导性意见。任总的视野、格局、睿智、激情，我等感触颇深，受益匪浅，令人敬佩！”
据《证券时报》 报道，阿维塔成立于2018年，最初由长安汽车与蔚来汽车合资成立。在2021年蔚来退出后，阿维塔引入华为、宁德时代两大战略投资者，形成“CHN（长安、华为、宁德时代）”协同模式。
朱华荣透露，他还与华为副董事长、轮值董事长徐直军以及华为常务董事、终端业务集团董事长余承东等高管进行了交流。
7月29日，中国长安汽车集团有限公司在重庆挂牌成立，朱华荣任集团党委书记和董事长。
这家新央企由原兵器装备集团实施分立，拥有117家分子公司，主要经营业务包括汽车整车及零部件、汽车销售、金融及物流服务、摩托车等。
长安汽车集团负责人说，集团未来将着力打造智能汽车机器人、飞行汽车、具身智能等新质生产力，探索海陆空立体出行新生态，并加速全球化发展，加快开拓东南亚、中东非洲、中南美洲、欧亚和欧洲五大区域市场。
长安汽车集团是继一汽集团、东风汽车集团后，中国的第三家汽车央企。
中国湖南湘阴县一名男子留言12字批评“豆腐渣工程”后被行拘，法院曾指留言对中共湘阴县委政府及领导产生负面政治影响，历经两年三次判决在湘阴时任“一把手”落马后才获翻案引发争议，当地已启动调查程序。
综合大象新闻和《大河报》报道，2023年7月，湖南岳阳市湘阴县居民肖新良在一段网络视频下留言批评“还在搞豆腐渣工程，统一招牌？”，随后被湘阴县公安局以“不实言论”“在网络上起哄闹事”，构成寻衅滋事为由，处行政拘留五日。
这条12字的留言仅收到六个点赞和一条留言。一名网民在肖新良的评论下回复道：“那你就不晓得吧！他好多姨妹子、舅子都是做广告公司的。”
肖新良说：“这个‘他’，我觉得说的就是当时的湘阴县委书记李镇江，统一招牌的事就是他上任后才开始的。”李镇江2021年出任湘阴县委书记，2024年1月被查，同年7月被“双开”（开除中共党籍和公职）。
肖新良对行政拘留处罚决定不服，被释放后便向法院提起行政诉讼。从2023年7月开始，两年来经历两次上诉三次判决后终于翻案。
2023年12月，湖南汨罗市法院开庭审理此案时，一度做出“驳回肖新良的诉讼请求”的判决。法院在判决书中称，“肖新良发表的评论意见与他人的恶意诋毁评论点赞具有延伸性、扩展性，对湘阴县委政府及领导个人产生了一致性的负面政治影响”，破坏了社会公共秩序，构成寻衅滋事。
今年6月，湖南省高级法院就本案做出第三次判决：“原一、二审判决主要证据不足，适用法律错误，应予撤销。”至此，肖新良曾接受的行政处罚被撤销，并获赔人身自由赔偿金。
湖南省高级法院的行政判决书也指出，肖新良的评论虽不当，但并没有具体的指向对象，评论下有六人点赞、一人评论，社会不良影响轻微，可以批评教育，但认定为扰乱公共秩序或者寻衅滋事的证据不足；湘阴县公安局以肖新良行为构成寻衅滋事作出行政拘留五日的处罚决定，认定事实不清，证据不足，过罚明显不当。应予撤销。
这起案件在上周经由中国媒体披露后，在社媒上引起网民高度关注。《南方日报》上周五（8月8日）评论称，从时间轴上看，撤销判决则是在被指“产生负面政治影响”的官员落马之后。“之后遇到同类案件，究竟是依法办理还是看人下菜？”
岳阳官媒《岳阳日报》星期天（8月10日）引述岳阳市委政法委称，湘阴县公安局已履行再审判决，并按要求支付人身自由赔偿金。针对案件涉及的执法司法行为，岳阳市公安局、市中级法院已启动调查程序，并将依据调查结果依法依规作出处理。
英国媒体报道，美国两大科技巨企英伟达和超微将向美国政府上缴销华晶片的15%收入，以确保获得向中国市场输出晶片的许可证。
英国《金融时报》星期天（8月10日）引述一名美国官员称，英伟达将向美政府上缴销华H20晶片的15%收入；超微向美政府上缴的同等比例收入，将源自对中国出口的MI308晶片。
英伟达受询时表明将遵照美政府的出口规定，超微则未回应置评请求。
《金融时报》上周引述美官员报道称，美国商务部旗下监管出口管制的工业和安全局，已开始为H20晶片发放许可证。此前两天，英伟达首席执行官黄仁勋再与美国总统特朗普会晤。
那之前，黄仁勋到白宫直接游说特朗普，后者上月撤销H20晶片输华禁令，英伟达也提出口申请，但美官方在撤销禁令三周后，仍未开始发放许可证，令英伟达感到懊恼。
H20是英伟达专门为中国市场制造的晶片。中国网信办7月31日约谈了英伟达，要求说明晶片的漏洞或后门的安全风险问题，并提交相关证明材料。在中国监管部门对晶片安全的疑虑未能彻底消除的情况下，中国科技公司未必会立即恢复大规模采购。
另一方面，路透社转述美国《华尔街日报》星期天引述知情人士称，英特尔总裁陈立武预计将于星期一（11日）赴白宫。白宫未立即回应路透社的置评请求。
特朗普上星期四（7日）在社媒体上说，陈立武应该立即辞职，称他与其他中资企业的关系引发质疑，“存在严重利益冲突”。
据悉患有自闭症的8岁男童，在云南大理苍山参加夏令营时失踪，大理官方组织救援队目前仍在搜寻，并通告将奖励提供关键线索者；当地180名志愿者也登记加入搜救。
综合新京报、澎湃新闻和广州日报等报道，一名男童在苍山走失的话题星期天（8月10日）登上微博热搜。同日，大理官方成立的“8.9搜救工作组”在官方微信通报情况。
通报指，大理公安局星期六（8月9日）下午1时43分许接警，一名8岁男童在大理市大理镇阳和茶厂附近走失。大理市立即组织公安、消防救援、应急等多方力量开展搜救。
男童走失地附近区域沟壑交错、植被茂密，截至星期天下午4时40分，已累计投入救援力量300余人次，搜救犬两头、无人机四架、热成像仪五部。
工作组星期天深夜再发通告，载明男童身高约1.2米，体型偏瘦，走失时上身穿蓝白色相间上衣，下身穿深色牛仔裤，背橙色儿童背包，身上有标牌及家属电话号码。提供关键线索者核实后将获适当奖励。
《中国新闻周刊》从知情人处了解到，失踪男孩患有自闭症，仅能进行简单的语言交流。
《新京报》引述当地民宿老板张先生称，男童是去大理参加名为“明日之光”的独立营，其中包括户外运动课程。组织者的过往微信文章显示，课程主要针对孩子的“自闭问题”。
截至星期天下午4时，已有180多名志愿者登记自发参与搜救。大理市应急管理局表示，全市各部门100多人也参与到搜救中。
截至星期天晚8时30分，男童仍未找到，当地多部门正持续搜救。

低龄老人迎来就业黄金期
“香港浸大撤销杨景媛博士录取资格”，这条在7日晚间开始急速传播的传言，先是由一些自媒体账号转发，而后再由少数几家机构媒体的公众号跟进，所转内容是一篇AI明显的“通稿”。目前，机构媒体官号已撤下转发挽尊，多数自媒体的还在。
这个操作显然是舆论战的手法，它的短期目的，是要对冲另一条出现了两天以上的另一则传言。这则同样未经证实的传言内容是，杨景媛向武大提交了知网论文的修改稿，并声称当初“受媒体滋扰”，才提交了那篇有瑕疵的论文。
这条更早的传言试图制造这样的效果：武大调查组似乎准备轻拿轻放杨景媛的论文问题，让她过关。而从处理逻辑来说，只要杨景媛保住武大硕士学位，浸大作为下家就可以保留杨的博士资格。所以，关于浸大的传言，是在做一种假想中的狙击战。
而关于浸大传言的另一重目的，是用一种似是而非的裁定结论强化舆论对“撤销杨博士资格”的心理预期——在浸大7月28日做出“不评论个案”的公告后，内地舆论形成对浸大的不满和敌意，希望它像武大一样顺应一审判决，这就是孕育“传言”的舆论母体。
几家机构媒体未作核实，就照登那则浸大传言，累及大众媒体的声誉再次受到讥讽与谴责。但这个传言事件的重点，不是机构媒体失察，而是在武大图书馆风波中出现了反女权的舆论战术，机构媒体不幸被卷入，舆论再次僭越了新闻。
很有一些朋友，将浸大传言斥责为谣言，再据此表示对媒体的恨铁不成钢。其实大可不必，一是因为对这部分朋友来说，哪怕媒体依据专业主义干了活，也会被他们瞧不上，比如一年前南都编辑打给杨景媛的核实电话被挂，这部分朋友将其作为媒体厌女证据。
二是因为在武大图书馆一事中，对肖的谣言更多，人身诋毁色彩更重，微博官方前几日封掉了两个冒充肖校友说他转笔偷窥女厕的账号，即是证据。只能说，在反肖的谣言后，出现了反杨的谣言，这是舆论中的新动向，预示双方对其战术颗粒度，重点不是机构媒体做了或没做什么。
造谣肖明瑫是副区长儿子与造谣杨景媛被浸大除名，犹如硬币的正反面，本质上没什么两样。作为一个理中客，你不能无视前者，而对后者锱铢必较，反之亦然。至于说，机构媒体在提供准确信息上的责任，在武大宣布调查进程后，环境已不允许。
从略高的视野看，不少爱国大V加入反女权斗争，他们所惯用的手法进入舆论对决的过程，并非不可理解。从这个角度看，受浸大传言震动的也许不该是媒体业者，而是在这件事中持女权立场的人，因为不讲事实的原则及其应用不再为女权运动独有。
新闻媒体的天职是排除传言，但“新闻”这个东西，以事实为准绳，提供描绘真相的材料，其结果必定不是意识形态斗争的任何一方所乐见。在新闻式微，不足以成为媒体强前缀的现实中，媒体发生什么都是可能的，包括它迸发新闻的激情，或导致新闻的黯淡。
很多人不喜欢听到“激进女权”“极端女权”“田园女权”这些词，但他们似乎对“激进媒体”“极端媒体”“田园媒体”这类称呼无感。机构媒体现在的存在状态，就很“激进”、很“极端”。这就很有意思了，同样的词修饰不一样的社群，触碰不同立场，爱憎却如此分明。
媒体的激进在于认清了一个事实，大众并不能成为新闻生产可依靠的力量，因为大众受舆论影响最大。绝大多数媒体无法“上岸”，只能晾晒在沙滩上，依据新闻规律或听从宣传纪律做事，得到的结果差不多，媒体在有争议的性别选题中得到的都是贬低。
几家机构媒体无核查转发浸大传言，即使不是舆论的重点所在，可若要真追究它的象征意义，也许首要象征的不是媒体的过去（荣光不再）和未来（黯淡无光）如何，而是媒体现在的、此刻的内在恼怒，以及“一起与世界毁灭吧”的暗暗疯狂劲。
大众媒体不像2011年前后那样过度追求价值感，它们现在不是任何群体的同路人，更不是激进女权的“社运伴侣”，那种蜜月期早就随风而逝，它们走上了各自的歧路，关系不复从前。即使彼此可能拥有短暂的平和期，也都服务不一样的生存原则。
有人希望谣言是遥遥领先的预言，对浸大被传谣一事不拒绝不生气不表态，一如另外人群对待肖的传言一样。他们当然也有记者一样的恼怒，只不过这种恼怒不是被维权者当枪使的恼怒，不是被网红当事人蔑视的恼怒，而是不管怎样都能擂上几锤媒体这面破鼓的恼怒。
Getty ImagesNew measures to make it easier for NHS employers in England to take on newly qualified nurses and midwives have been announced by the government.
The move comes after warnings there are up to three times more graduates than vacancies in some areas of the health service.
The aim is to free up trusts in England to recruit more easily by cutting red tape and simplifying regulations, including allowing them to employ staff based on what they think they might need and before vacancies formally arise.
The Royal College of Nursing welcomed the move but said the test would be if students could actually find jobs. Employers said it was not clear how the new measures would be fully funded.
Health officials said there were 4,000 more nursing and midwifery graduates than vacancies. This is out of a total of 24,870 who have already graduated or are due to over the next six months.
New measures would also see some support worker posts be temporarily converted to midwifery roles to create new openings for graduates.
The Department of Health said the changes would tackle concerns about jobs after record numbers chose to train for NHS professions during the pandemic – with fewer nurses and midwives quitting.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting said: "It is absurd that we are training thousands of nurses and midwives every year, only to leave them without a job before their career has started.
"I am sending a clear message to every newly qualified nurse and midwife. We're here to support you from day one so you can provide the best care for patients and cut waiting lists."
The Royal College of Nursing general secretary Prof Nicola Ranger said she welcomed the news, noting it should "provide hope to students", but added a note of caution.
"When the health service urgently needs nursing staff, it was absurd to leave people in limbo," she said. "The test of this will be if students can find jobs, vacant posts are filled, and patients receive the care they deserve."
Gill Walton, chief executive of the Royal College of Midwives, said: "We're pleased that the government has listened to the voices of student midwives who are desperate to start their career, only to find those opportunities blocked.
"I know today's announcement will come as a relief to student midwife members."
But it was not clear in the announcement what extra money there might be for employers already under pressure to cut costs.
Daniel Elkeles, chief executive of NHS Providers which represents trusts, said it was good that staff concerns were being addressed - but added that there were questions over the finances.
He said: "It's not clear how this will be fully funded, nor what it could mean for other staff groups facing similar challenges.
"Trust budgets are already under enormous pressure. There is no spare money."
The health union Unison said ministers should also deal with a lack of opportunities for new graduates in occupational therapy as well as paramedics and other professions.
The attempts to make it easier for newly qualified nurses and midwives to get jobs comes at a time of a growing row with the government over NHS pay in England.
The Royal College of Nursing is calling for talks with ministers over pay issues after a consultative ballot of members showed a large majority opposing the 3.6% pay award. Future strike action has not been ruled out.
Another health union, the GMB, has said there will be talks on Monday at the Department of Health after its members also came out against the wage award in a ballot.
Al JazeeraFour Al Jazeera journalists have been killed in an Israeli strike near Gaza City's Al-Shifa Hospital, the broadcaster has said.
Correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqeh and cameramen Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal were in a tent for journalists at the hospital's main gate when it was targeted, Al Jazeera reported.
A fortnight ago, it condemned the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for what it called a "campaign of incitement" against its reporters in Gaza, including al-Sharif.
Shortly after the strike, the IDF confirmed that it had struck Anas al-Sharif, posting on Telegram that he had "served as the head of a terrorist cell in Hamas".
The IDF did not mention any of the other journalists who were killed. The BBC has contacted Al Jazeera for comment.
Al-Sharif, 28, appeared to be posting on X in the moments before his death, warning of intense Israeli bombardment within Gaza City.
A post which was published after he was reported to have died appears to have been pre-written and published by a friend.
In two graphic videos of the aftermath of the strike, which have been confirmed by BBC Verify, men can be seen carrying the bodies of those who were killed. Some shout out Mohammed Qreiqeh's name, and a man wearing a press vest says that one of the bodies is that of Anas Al-Sharif.
In July, the Al Jazeera Media Network issued a statement denouncing "relentless efforts" by the IDF for an "ongoing campaign of incitement targeting Al Jazeera's correspondents and journalists in the Gaza Strip".
"The Network considers this incitement a dangerous attempt to justify the targeting of its journalists in the field," it added.
The IDF statement accused al-Sharif of posing as a journalist, and being "responsible for advancing rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF troops"
It said it had previously "disclosed intelligence" confirming his military affiliation, which included "lists of terrorist training courses".
"Prior to the strike, steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munition, aerial surveillance, and additional intelligence," the statement added.
According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, 186 journalists have been confirmed killed since the start of Israel's military offensive in Gaza in October 2023.
