🚨NEWS: There is a media blackout in Spain after a ‘woman’ had her throat sliced open in broad daylight by an ‘unknown man’ in Barcelona 🇪🇸 Locals are saying on social media the ‘woman’ was in fact a 15 year old girl and the ‘man’ was a migrant Awful

The machine that built the chip in this video should mass-humble every human who's ever lived. ASML's latest EUV lithography system costs $370 million, weighs 180 tons, and requires three Boeing 747s to deliver. It contains over 100,000 individual parts from 5,100 suppliers across 14 countries. It shoots 100,000 molten tin droplets per second with a laser, superheating each one past the temperature of the sun's surface to generate light at a wavelength so short that no natural material on Earth can focus it. So they had to invent new mirrors. Each one is polished with 100 alternating layers of molybdenum and silicon. The surface tolerance is so extreme that if you scaled a single mirror up to the size of Germany, the tallest imperfection would be 1 millimeter. Those mirrors took 20 years to develop. The company that makes them, Zeiss, had to build entirely new metrology tools just to confirm the mirrors were flat enough, because no existing measurement instrument on Earth could verify the precision they needed. The machine prints features at 2 nanometers. That's roughly 10 atoms wide. A human hair is 80,000 nanometers. A red blood cell is 7,000. A single COVID virus particle is 100. These machines are etching functional circuits 50 times smaller than a virus. TSMC is now mass producing 2nm chips in a Kaohsiung fab so large the cleanroom is twice the size of any competitor's. Each 2nm wafer costs $30,000 to produce. The entire 2026 production run was booked before a single chip shipped. Apple, NVIDIA, AMD, and Qualcomm all reserved capacity years in advance. TSMC is spending $28.6 billion just to build enough fabs to meet demand for this one node. The chip that comes out of this process is smaller than a fingernail, runs on less power than a light bulb, and contains transistors that wrap gates around nanosheets of silicon only a few atoms thick. The raw material it started as was sand. The sand cost a fraction of a penny. The civilization that processed it into this started by banging rocks together.

For decades f1 has been bragging to other motorsport series that its the pioneer, the pinnacle of motorsport. Things started going south when f1 started only caring about the investors and political correctness rather than the core fundamental, the fans. Now everyone is taking their turn ridiculing and making fun of once a giant of motorsport. Sad what this sport had become.

The comparison sounds clever on an Accenture slide. It falls apart the second you check the history. Edison spent years studying gas lamps, arc lamps, and every existing illumination technology before building the lightbulb. His key breakthrough, a carbonized bamboo filament that lasted 1,200 hours, came from testing 3,000 materials across 14 months of continuous iteration. He didn't skip the candle. He studied every candle ever made and then built something better. The iPhone was a continuous improvement of the Palm Pilot, which was a continuous improvement of the Newton, which was a continuous improvement of the Psion Organizer. Google was a continuous improvement of AltaVista. Tesla was a continuous improvement of the GM EV1. The consulting version of innovation sounds like "think different and skip the boring work." The actual version is "study every existing solution until you understand the constraints so deeply that the next step becomes obvious." Accenture charges $500/hour to show this slide to Fortune 500 executives. The companies that actually build the next electric light are in the lab running experiment 2,999.

In 2018 I argued we needed more nuclear power. I was labelled a “climate denier.” No debate, just cancellation. Today our unelected leaders spend more time fixing the consequences of their own bad policies than planning for the future. Lacking vision and expertise, they rely on WEF billionaires, corporations and lobbyists to steer policy. msn.com/en-gb/news/wor…

Crazy time
Kalshi Finance@Kalshi_Finance

Amazon just confirmed 16,000 layoffs but sources inside are telling me the real story is so much worse Word from three different VPs: the 16K number is just "Phase One" - internal docs show another 14,000 cuts planned for Q2 A director in AWS walked me through their new "efficiency matrix" - entire teams being replaced by 2-3 senior engineers running Claude Sonnet workflows The Alexa division got completely hollowed out. 847 engineers two months ago. 23 remaining after this week. All hardware development moved to a Bangalore team of 31 contractors with Cursor access Here's the sick part: they're making the outgoing engineers document their entire decision-making process into "knowledge transfer sessions" that are being recorded and fed directly into training datasets One L7 told me he spent his final two weeks creating detailed prompt libraries and workflow documentation. Thought he was being helpful for the transition Turns out he was literally training the AI agent that replaced his entire org The contractors offshore are using his exact prompts and shipping features 40% faster than his old team of 12 Americans ever did Internal Slack shows leadership celebrating "operational excellence" while badges get deactivated in real-time They're calling it "right-sizing for the AI era" in the all-hands But the P&L sheets I'm seeing show $280M in salary savings this quarter alone The knowledge extraction is complete If you're still at Amazon and haven't started job hunting, you're already dead
