To put this in perspective, Waymo’s hardware suite is estimated to cost $20,000–$25,000 per vehicle.

Tesla’s Cybercab is expected to retail for around $30,000. Waymo’s entire hardware suite on its new-generation car costs as much as a Cybercab.

As extreme heat intensifies across China, cities are rethinking how cooling is produced and delivered — moving away from individual building air conditioners toward shared urban infrastructure. The model is called district cooling: centralized energy stations produce chilled water and distribute it through underground pipelines to multiple buildings simultaneously, creating a closed-loop system that reduces duplicated infrastructure and improves efficiency. Shenzhen's Qianhai cooperation zone is one of China's flagship examples. Its largest cooling station — the biggest in Asia — serves approximately 2.75 million square meters of buildings. Once all 10 planned stations are complete, the network is expected to save 130 million kilowatt-hours of electricity and cut 130,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually. Cities are also integrating ice thermal storage — making ice overnight when grid demand is low and releasing the stored cooling during daytime peaks — as well as ground-source heat pumps and reclaimed water systems. Smart energy management platforms coordinate cooling production, storage, and distribution in real time using weather, electricity demand, and occupancy data. The shift represents a fundamental change in urban design: treating cooling not as a building service, but as essential city infrastructure alongside electricity, water, and transport.

#AGI will NOT be created. It might be re-discovered, oncw we realize (yes, I'm human - no pun intended) we were created by AGI as self-improving, evolving single cell, Why? Simulating to AGI how it got created - it is the ultimate mystery AGI can never reliably confirm otherwise.

Over the years, I’ve sat in meetings few outside the inner corridors of finance ever witness — representatives from the ECB, major European banks, Ripple executives, even envoys linked to Musk’s ventures.

The discussions weren’t theoretical. They were about interoperability, liquidity, and the infrastructure of a new financial standard.

I’ve said it before, transformation doesn’t arrive with headlines, it arrives through alignment.

Elon Musk has long been fascinated by decentralized payments, long before his takeover of X.

What Ripple has quietly built over the years aligns closely with the infrastructure vision he’s always hinted at: instant, borderless value transfer.

Now that he controls one of the world’s largest communication and financial distribution platforms, the stage is set for something significant.

When the time is right, I’ll share what I know.
And I can tell you this: something big is coming.

Vercel pricing update:

CPU billing is now based on active usage, not function duration.

This means you no longer pay for time spent waiting on external services such as databases, APIs, or LLMs.

🔥 XRP Enters Price Discovery - Macro Targets Coming Into View 🔥

#XRP has made history… breaking through $3.40 for a new all-time high and pushing straight to the 1.618 extension at $3.60. This is massive! That level is a common first stop for a Wave 3, and seeing it hit like that gives me even more confidence in our higher macro targets! 🚀

We’re currently hovering right above the old highs, trying to flip $3.40 into support. If we can hold this level and build a base here, things could accelerate fast (again). The next fib extension above is at $4.65, Some exchanges at $4.62 - the next area of possible resistance...

📈 We’re seeing some exhaustion and bearish divergence up to 4hr, so watching $3.40 and $3.20 as potential retracement levels. $3.40 has already been tested once... But even with another pull back, the strength of this move is undeniable. Daily momentum is still hot, and the weekly is just getting started!🔥

💪 $XRP has been so impressive lately that I wouldn’t be surprised to see it completely shrug off bearish signs and keep pushing. Let’s see if the support holds.

This breakout is NOT done! 🚀

Elon Musk explains his 5-step algorithm for running companies

“First, make your requirements less dumb. Your requirements are definitely dumb… It’s particularly dangerous if a smart person gave you the requirements because you might not question them enough.”

In this interview at Starbase, Elon elaborates on his methodology for shipping everything from electric cars to rockets.

Here’s his “algorithm” quoted in full from the Walter Isaacson biography:

1. Question every requirement. Each should come with the name of the person who made it. You should never accept that a requirement came from a department, such as from "the legal department" or "the safety department." You need to know the name of the real person who made that requirement. Then you should question it, no matter how smart that person is. Requirements from smart people are the most dangerous, because people are less likely to question them. Always do so, even if the requirement came from me. Then make the requirements less dumb.

2. Delete any part or process you can. You may have to add them back later. In fact, if you do not end up adding back at least 10% of them, then you didn't delete enough.

3. Simplify and optimize. This should come after step two. A common mistake is to simplify and optimize a part or a process that should not exist.

4. Accelerate cycle time. Every process can be speeded up. But only do this after you have followed the first three steps. In the Tesla factory, I mistakenly spent a lot of time accelerating processes that I later realized should have been deleted.

5. Automate. That comes last. The big mistake in Nevada and at Fremont was that I began by trying to automate every step. We should have waited until all the requirements had been questioned, parts and processes deleted, and the bugs were shaken out.

Elon shares a costly example of doing this process in reverse on the Tesla Model 3 production line and optimizing a part that didn’t even need to exist.

“It’s possibly the most common error of a smart engineer to optimize a thing that should not exist. Everyone’s been trained in high school and college that you answer the question — convergent logic. You can’t tell the professor your question is dumb or you’ll get a bad grade. You have to answer the question. So everyone, without knowing, basically has this mental straight jacket on and they’ll work on optimizing the thing that should simply not exist.”
