@EdwardMcKernan @PatrickMoorhead It's an acquisition in all but name. It was specifically structured to avoid antitrust scrutiny.

If it is a licensing deal and not acquisition then how does that violate anti-trust. Will the politicians claim hiring Groq engineers as anti-trust as well? And Remember part of the culture and success of Silicon Valley is the California law that allows employees to get up and move to any other company (even a competitor) and not be denied.

@josephuibeh @AdiOltean Every tech has overconfident haters and they usually never admit being wrong. Get used to it and move on.

Now that NVIDIA, Blue Origin, Google, and eventually every hyperscaler are investing in space data centers, I'd love to hear from the "experts" who dismissed Starcloud and SpaceX as idealistic, ridiculous, and impossible. The ones who threw around shallow fluency about cooling being unworkable in orbit. What do they say now? In less than six months, orbital data centers went from fringe idea to frontier market. And I've noticed some of those same experts rapidly updating their positions, not because the underlying technology changed, not because some breakthrough happened, but seemingly because Jensen said it out loud. Curious. What genuinely surprises me is the volume of hand-waving, shallow fluency, and outright dismissal that passes for expert commentary in public discussions about emerging markets. Space data centers aren't a proven success yet, I'll be clear about that. But two or three hours of honest first-principles work would have pointed any knowledgeable person toward the real possibility of it. That's the bar. Not certainty. Possibility. The problem isn't skepticism. Skepticism is healthy. The problem is confident dismissal dressed up as expertise. End of mini rant.

@AladinKumar1 @quetzal_rainbow These languages are intentionally designed to be as confusing as possible.

@quetzal_rainbow I mean, learning a new language is a proxy for learning a new API, or pattern, and in many cases that’s what software engineers do. I don’t think it’s a bad test, though I’m skeptical LLMs are as bad as they appear in solving that test

"Language models solve 10% of tasks in languages which would make your brain boil out of eye sockets which prove that they only memorize stuff"

No, you can't have a monitor. Why would you even ask for that?

@TDilTester Careful, they might break down your door.

Thanks to the Afroman trial, I now know that Adams County, Ohio has a Sheriff's department that is nothing but thieves and crybabies and all of them have wives that are easy to fuck. I would never have thought this if those incompetent wife swappers had not sued Afroman.

@coldhealing But the expectations are lower.

I like how Palantir's "neurodivergent fellowship" is the exact same salary and responsibilities as a normal consultant role at Palantir

@ryanaraine If they acknowledge it... so what?

Two full iOS exploit kits in one month, deployed via watering holes on public websites, potentially affecting hundreds of millions of devices. Will Apple acknowledge that this no longer fits the "very small number of highly targeted individuals" narrative?

@Srasgon Any analyst who owns this sweater has to report a conflict.

I’m sorely tempted. But I know it’s wrong…

@JoeWilsonEQ1 Megaton level banger

@socalfisherboy @sigfig I saw this movie. It didn't go well.

@sigfig why havent we sent someone to the sun yet. seems very important

people misunderstand the icarus story. the problem was not that he flew too high. it's that the wings were made of beeswax, which offered very little resistance to heating. with modern materials he would have had no problems. we can fly as close to the sun as we want now

@ethinva @sigfig As we know, jet fuel cannot melt steel beams so I'm sure the heat of the sun will be no problem.

@sigfig I have never seen metal melt so this seems right to me

@NathanpmYoung You can tell this is fake because Chani is smiling.

i think you just want to do a galactic jihad

You can see how Rubin no longer allows customization here. Besides changing gold to silver paint it looks identical to the Nvidia reference rack.

@loyalmoses Just like The Wire season 2.

Fun fact... I had my phone lines wire-tapped by the FBI when I was a professional hacker 25 years ago. I called to transfer my Chicago home phone and ISDN lines from our 47th floor apartment to the 8th floor, and when they had trouble, a support rep told me there was a hold code on my lines. They were new, so they put me on hold, looked the codes up, then came back and told me that there was a federal wire-tap (I can't remember the words he used). He then laughed and expressed how he was probably not supposed to tell me that. I remember laughing, but wasn't surprised -- it was the business I was in.

@bradcarryvc I saw this in 1999.

POV: you finally raised a $300k seed round for your startup and leased a penthouse “office” for the company that you happen to live in

@mizohdamka @SwiftOnSecurity @johnmccumber I think the propagation was intentional but the crashing wasn't.

@SwiftOnSecurity @johnmccumber I had read that the release and propagation of the worm was inadvertent; a mistake not anticipated. True?

In 1988, two men sit in a room. One of them is cryptographer Bob Morris, the father of Robert Morris, who had just released the first Internet worm. "A line had been crossed and the world we inhabited had changed." (@johnmccumber, Assessing&Managing Security Risk in IT Systems)

@mattyglesias When they green light part four next year

I will back whichever 2028 candidate vows to put a stop to this "epic conclusion" nonsense and force them to film God-Emperor of Dune.

Afroman just one-uped Omar with that flag suit.
