The major fault with the argument that the current conflict parallels Gallipoli is that in 1914-1915, Britain was the consumer of the commodity flowing through the checkpoint. This was an existential vulnerability.

But the US is the world's largest oil producer and a net exporter. Britain in 1914 is more analogous to Japan/South Korea/India and China... dependent nations with short term inventory.

In short: the commodity dependency risk simply does not exist for the US in regards to oil. The US attack on Hormuz is motivated by geopolitical control, not existential oil risk. The US can survive a closed Hormuz far more easily than Britain could a century ago.

The second failure point is that Epic Fury is currently in a ceasefire. It is not a military failure by any definition of the word. The US is simply dominant, end of story. Galipolu was about a military operation that failed, this is not that.

There are numerous other reasons why its an imperfect analogy but not sure anyone is reading so I'll cut it off here.

@bridgemindai @bridgebench Every Chinese model I've used has sucked balls in comparison to the glowing reports always planted about them. So... no thanks.

@TenreiroDaniel Because being poor sucks. And not being wealthy enough sucks, too. Hope I resolved that for you

[QuantNerd @FastTradeKing]

@valuedrift This is completely false.

@wilzerjb @DanielMiessler Pretty easy actually, that can just authorize via https://t.co/wOevmQG4c0.

What's wrong with limiting access to such a good (and potentially dangerous) technology to US citizens? While I don't have access to Mythos, I've seen enough to know with high confidence that it excels at finding subtle interactions in complex code that lead to undesired side effects.

@MartinShkreli Cialis is a vasodilator. Does wonderful things for blood pressure. Can tell you that from first hand experience. Dunno about the rest.

@TMTLongShort AI cold war playing out as expected. This is the inflection point.

@SubxNews "he be"??? What language is that

Fable is really good but too expensive and burns through credits too fast, even on an enterprise plan. Non-starter, back to Opus. @AnthropicAI you need to fix this.

[QuantNerd @FastTradeKing]

@Mlke_Mik @daniel_mac8 I've been hitting it hard and it's coding circles around Opus. It also discovered some novel improvements in my trading systems which were immediately profitable.

@SantiagoAuFund Luke is a master at crafting analysis which proves his foregone conclusions.

@xsteenbrugge Agreed. It's very dense, often elegant in how it selects just the right word as shorthand for complex concepts. Very powerful stuff.

@pmarca And what will you be doing, sir

@bearlyai Honestly, this is the best way

@MaxTheoKi @MilesCranmer I don't think he's saying that at all. I think the paper explicitly says he's not saying that (IIRC it's not in front of me). He's implying that the substrate matters though.
