Another day, another Trump rape revealed.

i got into this whole industry thinking (wrongly) that the mainstream press just had to systematically be corrected and nudged in the right direction after decades of right-wing bullying. no. the right has a noise machine. the way to combat that noise machine is to out-shout it. period.

hm. lula succeeded by out-shouting the right and not begging for the press to do the lift for him and his supporters? wow, wonder who has been saying something like that in america for almost 20 years?

Didn't expect a Sunday night "Is that good?".

NBA announcer: You can really feel the electricity in the arena tonight! Me (carefully taking their mic away from them): I think that's a bad ground you've got there.

PHP hero has jokes!

So a volunteer IT engineer from Czechia has fixed the PHP issue that blocked 70% of all websites. Imagine if this guy was working for Elon Musk instead…

I know you shouldn't judge a book (oops, album) by its cover, but this looks like it would have to be really bad.

Saving this for regular reports on the stock market under Trump.

Business Insider confirms it: Amazon has warehouses of GPUs that can’t be installed, and is buying them so far in advance that a supply chain team said they “didn’t have a clear forecasted path” to installing them. www.businessinsider.com/amazon-220-b...

Allow me to finish with a question: Does any of this feel like the future? Are you witnessing the next industrial revolution? Or are you watching the spark that ignites the next financial crisis? And are you sufficiently angry at the people responsible? www.wheresyoured.at/ai-had-bette...

I also wanted to pull out a special part of the piece: fuck Jensen Huang. By forcing customers to take early delivery of GPUs to boost quarterly revenues, he artificially inflated the price of RAM and every consumer electronic. What he and his hyperscale paypigs have done is morally reprehensible.

He's just going to wait until they go bankrupt first.

Maybe after the containment arch is repaired, and the old remains of the reactor building eventually disassembled, they should ship all the pieces to Moscow. What's the old expression again? Oh yeah, "If you break it, you bought it."

Life is a Minestrone...

I picked chestnuts from my neighbors’ trees and then tried to sell them to my neighbors, including the neighbors from whom I stole. I was six years old. Realizing now this is the same business model as AI.

This summer, Judge John and Bailiff Jesse Thorn went on a boat with some listeners and tried some weird chips. A LOT of weird chips. Now their taste test is available, ONLY on YouTube! Watch them decide which chips passed the taste test and which were found GUILTY here: youtu.be/zFzb_mHGeSc?...

A "Scaramucci" is still the standard unit of measurement. All other press secretaries are measured against a Scaramucci, even those fired more quickly. There isn't any need to muck up the units with more metric v. imperial faultlines.

Oh, wow! I hadn't noticed the date.

Again, it's not a joke. Trump is entirely serious.

This is an example of the type of statement that people use as an example when they say Trump has a sense of humor. Basically, an insult, followed by a brag. People assume that it's funny because Trump doesn't actually mean it. He does.

A.I. is going to change everything.

I leave this definition of the word "prescient" for no reason in particular. Prescient is an adjective meaning having or showing knowledge of events before they happen, or possessing remarkable foresight and intuition.

running to lock myself in my closet, shaking, screaming "don't come any closer!! I don't trust you, you have to get out of here, don't come near me with that" to someone trying to show me new election polling

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Today's newsletter is about how the AI bubble is inflated on the basis of made-up numbers that don't tell us anything, but serve to distract from the the fact that we have no actual information about the industry's financials. www.wheresyoured.at/annualized-e...

In this week's Better Offline monologue, I talk about how Anthropic’s big Q3 revenues underwhelmed an already-nervous market, and how the more of the real numbers we learn about AI, the worse things seem to get. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m... linktr.ee/betteroffline
