@neetintel @livsanns46868 @IpowpowUnownow you’re getting boosted by a bigger account and being an obtuse jackass to a broader audience than you’re used to, most of whom are just seeking context in good faith

@ianawren @livsanns46868 @IpowpowUnownow No, that's not why at all lol

EAM broadcasts from the HFGCS ground stations and from the Mercury E6Bs are now happening at the same time and overlapping with each other.

@neetintel @livsanns46868 @IpowpowUnownow a lot of people are probably asking grok because you’re bad at explaining things yourself

@livsanns46868 @IpowpowUnownow A lot of people are asking Grok 'what is this' which is a completely ridiculous use of AI. What AI is good at it, particularly, is rephrasing things *existing* you're having trouble understanding and explaining it to you.

@mattguthmiller @allgarbled McDonald’s app gonna rock your world buddy

@allgarbled I mean if it can order from the store along my route that will have it ready at the same time as I’ll be passing that store, I’ll be pretty impressed.

Imagine you go work for OpenAI and you’re like I’m gonna be building state of the art machine intelligence and they’re like no no no buddy you’re doing the Starbucks integration

@bdmarotta @DylanoA4 post them. that’s the whole point of the quote

@DylanoA4 I have multiple stories that relate to this line. Never posted them because I don't want to tempt fate, but it is a powerfully true line.

I say this line by Cormac McCarthy in my head at least twice a week

@Noahpinion c’mon man

@izakaminska @70sBachchan dictating that it “probably needs to be studied by academics” when you aren’t aware of what academics have been studying for a long time is already bad doing so as a “founder editor” of something literally called “The Blind Spot” just pushes this into satire territory

@izakaminska @70sBachchan this post is really ironic bc the effect you are describing was very clearly articulated in publicly available literature decades ago lol

The hysterical reaction to Palantir’s “manifesto” demonstrates the total stupidity of how information disseminates and gets absorbed these days. I call it the packet curse. I’ve seen so many accounts claiming this is some sort of sudden declaration of intent, when nothing in the post is new. All of these arguments were fully set out in Karp and Zamiska’s book over a year ago. The post is basically a synopsis of the book. And if you read the actual book, you understand the grander context, which imho comes across as entirely reasonable. There were some great points in it. But of course nobody reads books anymore. And the lag between information becoming publicly available and being absorbed by the public/market consciousness only grows larger every day. This effect probably needs to be studied by academics focused on efficient market hypothesis. I think it resembles a sort of latent virus effect, where the true consequences of a piece info beginning to circulate don’t become apparent until something triggers an activation. It is a very weird environment. We are both over exposed to information and more under informed than ever.

@birria_Energy @Parag_Oilman @FracSlap Sounds like their supplier exercised a contract option that was easily foreseeable etc etc

@birria_Energy @Parag_Oilman @FracSlap A more efficient compute market means they probably just would have been rug-pulled slightly sooner.

Microsoft pulled all of our GPUs from us a couple of weeks ago without explanation. I think it's likely because Anthropic needed compute and all the small guys like us got kicked out. It's part of the game and just how it goes, but highlights how much dependency risk companies are going to have on Microsoft and other cloud providers when it comes to compute for running inference on agents. Companies are going to deploy agents then just get rug pulled on their compute. Fortunately for us, we have deep experience in energy and our clients are some of the biggest energy producers in the world. We will eventually build on-prem compute for our clients on their energy assets. This will allow them to have closed loop systems where they own the energy, the compute, and the AI stack.

I modeled the grid

Most data center projects are “GW scale campuses” in the same way most guys on Hinge are 6 foot tall.

@ToddWenning @BowTiedCrow What regulation is this? Genuinely curious.

@BowTiedCrow Costco keeps is Gold Membership rates at or below a California regulation that caps nominal membership rates. Anything above that rate has an added sales tax. Since CA remains a major part of their revenue base (~20%) they have historically not pushed the basic fee above it.

Raise Costco membership fees by 10x expeditiously. Holy fuck.

stopping PEPFAR is genuinely cruel and evil with no upside. a very cheap program that saves tens of millions of lives. it is a brainworm to see everything in the language of exploitation and the exploited and does not bring out the best in a culture

Taiwan made the largest single greenfield FDI in US history through TSMC. Now, instead of receiving gratitude for helping the struggling US chip industry, Taiwan faces potential tariffs. In his zero-sum worldview, there are no friends. x.com/WilliamYang120…

@Radtse @OlsonRbrt @JStauner @Austen @cayblood yeah ok lmao

@OlsonRbrt @JStauner @Austen @cayblood The worst part is he's got a white guy as his PFP when he's Asian. What a bitch

This guy is the worst account on X

“Oh you haven’t literally read Marx in the original German?” is such a milquetoast gotcha from a crowd that can’t even do math

hold up gonna ask my boss if i can take some time this week to historicize my methods of knowledge production

@BaniaInvestor @winterrose it’s called opportunity cost dude

@winterrose Is this a typo? You're spending $1500 per person for a week of food?

I just got Chipotle meal prep - $1500 for a week's worth of food - Absolutely delicious - Healthy - No work - I made my wife pay for half Why tf haven't I done this years ago??
