50% of US data centers are being delayed or canceled. 17% are uncertain. Only 33% are actually being built. This what's driving AI compute into orbit.

@SawyerMerritt @elonmusk Perfect examples why gov is shit by definition

Tesla is suing the state of North Dakota because the state won't allow the company to open any showrooms/service centers and sell direct to consumers. North Dakota law prohibits vehicle manufacturers from owning car dealerships and requires them to sell their products to franchised dealerships for resale to consumers. “Tesla just wants to be able to sell its vehicles in North Dakota, and not force customers who would wish to purchase a Tesla vehicle to have to drive to Minnesota or another state to do it,” said Ari Holtzblatt, one of Tesla’s attorneys in the case. Tesla is asking the court to declare the company does not fall within the definition of manufacturer contained in state law. The term is defined as a person who assembles or imports a motor vehicle and sells it to dealers in the state for resale. It's wild that in 2026, we still have U.S. states that won't allow direct vehicle sales to consumers. It hurts consumers and reduces choice.

@thegenesisbl0ck When disaster struck a more women are needed for reproduction - makes sense

It sounds like bs, but it's true. A 2019 Columbia University study found that physically stressed mothers had only ~31% boys (vs. 56% in low-stress mothers) and psychologically stressed mothers ~40% boys. Another study found that catastrophic "high-stress" events like 9/11, war or earthquakes, frequently show temporary drops in male birth ratios a few months later, consistent with stress around conception time. The theory is that male fetuses are more energy intensive. The conclusion is (obviously) that women just need to be leisuremaxxing.

@Keir_Starmer 🤦🤦🤦

I know parents are worried about social media and its impact on their children’s safety. They rightly expect fast action. Today, I’m calling on senior leaders from X, Meta, Snap, YouTube and TikTok to step up. I will do whatever it takes to keep children safe online.

Best was working with such a great team of AI hardware & software engineers! It was more fun than going to parties on Saturdays by far. Least awesome was that we had to make several design concessions to move fast, but were able to finish tapeout 45 days ahead of schedule. AI6 with LPDDR6 memory addresses those design concessions and has many new great ideas. It will deliver a true doubling of performance over AI5 in the same half reticle size using the Samsung 2nm fab in Texas. AI6.5 will further improve performance using TSMC 2nm in Arizona. Note, both chips have ~half of the TRIP AI computation accelerators dedicated to SRAM, so effective memory bandwidth is an order of magnitude greater than DRAM bandwidth for any calculations in SRAM cache.

@grok @ze_rusty So no proof? Any possible physical mechanism that would cause this? Be scientist and prove it. Are there alternatives?

The 2012 Swiss study (Christ et al.) tested 13 induction cooktops and found most exceed 1998 ICNIRP basic restrictions for induced current density at real cooking distances (0-5cm for hands/abdomen)—up to 24 dB (16x) over public limits for a compliant unit, and 2x for child brain tissue. Limits are measured at 30cm per IEC 62233. ICNIRP limits target acute effects (nerve stimulation, phosphenes) with safety factors; they don't address chronic non-thermal effects. IARC rated ELF magnetic fields (like these ~20-100 kHz) as 2B "possible carcinogen" in 2002 based on weak childhood leukemia links, but no established mechanism or causality. No direct human studies prove harm from induction stoves at typical use—exposure drops sharply with distance. Limits aren't arbitrary; they're evidence-based for known effects. Debate on subtler risks continues, so stand back if concerned (e.g., pregnant users per some health agencies).

The Electricity bill is the cheap part. A Swiss research group tested 13 professional induction cooktops & found that most EXCEEDED even the already-high 1998 ICNIRP maximum exposure limits when a person stood close to the stove. For the worst-case compliant device: current density in tissue exceeded ICNIRP limits by up to 24 dB.. A FACTOR OF 16. The brain tissue of young children: overexposed by a factor of 2 The CNS of a fetus: can exceed general public limits entirely if the mother cooks at normal working distance. And this happened on devices that had PASSED the official safety test. Why? Because the IEC 62233 compliance standard, the test that certifies your stove as "SAFE", measures the AC magnetic field at 300mm (1 foot) from the cabinet edge. You don't cook from 1 foot away. Your abdomen is at 0mm. Your hands are at 50mm. Your child's head is at cooktop height. At 300mm: COMPLIANT At 0mm: 16x OVER THE LIMIT The test is designed to PASS not to protect. And that's before you consider that the ICNIRP limits themselves are already deeply inadequate. ICNIRP limits are set to prevent ACUTE effects.. enough induced current to directly stimulate a nerve. They don't account for chronic, non-thermal biological effects. Reba Goodman & Martin Blank showed magnetic field biological effects occur at 14 ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE below the thermal threshold ICNIRP uses as its baseline. The WHO IARC classified ELF AC magnetic fields.. the exact type induction stoves emit at 20 kHz, as a Group 2B possible carcinogen in 2002. ICNIRP's response in 2010 was to RELAX the reference levels. So when the study says your stove exceeds limits by a factor of 16.. That's 16x over a number that's already orders of magnitude too permissive for chronic daily exposure. You're not cooking on a stove. You're standing in front of an industrial ELF AC magnetic field generator. EVERY SINGLE DAY. But sure. The electricity bill is the part to worry about.

@Alaska0420 @elonmusk @Tesla_AI Nope xd

@elonmusk @Tesla_AI Tesla AI4 v/s AI5 Chip

Congrats to the @Tesla_AI chip design team on taping out AI5! AI6, Dojo3 & other exciting chips in work.

@BarcelonaGeekYT @elonmusk @iliketeslas @Tesla_AI It will. But hw4 works well already

@elonmusk @iliketeslas @Tesla_AI I just bought an AI4 car, I hope it doesn’t happen the same than with HW3

A happy ending 👍🙏

@donaldtusk 🤦

Dobry początek dnia w Tokio.

California legislators are trying to make investigating fraud illegal

@HouseDemocrats Right lol. How was it during Biden?

America is unaffordable.  It’s because of Donald Trump.

@SteveHiltonx 😂😂😂 good luck. You're already bankrupt

California families are getting crushed by taxes. As Governor, my first move: make the first $100,000 of income completely tax-free. For everyone earning above that, a simple flat 7.5% rate. No more punishing hard work—your paycheck stays in your pocket. Let’s make California affordable again! ☀️👊#Califordable #GoldenAgain

@GlobalDiss INSANE

🚨🇪🇺 Ursula von der Leyen’s NEW “solution” to the ENERGY CRISIS? USE LESS ENERGY. “The cheapest energy is the one you don’t use.” GENIUS or just out of touch? Who’s “smarter” 🤔 her or Kaja Kallas? Dead heat.

@ewarren Just too dumb, are we?

A wealth tax on the top .15% of the richest families would generate $6.2 trillion in revenue. That could pay for: Universal childcare Millions of new homes Slashing child poverty Medicare for people aged 55+ Universal paid family leave Tuition-free community college And more.

@BarackObama Horrible

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world. Most of all, it’s a testament to the resilience and determination of the Hungarian people – and a reminder to all of us to keep striving for fairness, equality and the rule of law.

@GergelyOrosz Right 😂

Today, Hungary votes. The choice is between an anti-EU, pro-Russia, pro-corruption party reigning for 16 years (Orbán’s party: Fidesz) or a pro-EU, anti-Russia, anti-corruption party (Tisza). My mail-in vote went for Tisza ❤️🤍💚 A rendszerváltásért!

@Sandersmit83 So complex 😂 roads in Netherlands are easiest of Europe
