There’s nothing better then meeting old colleagues/friends and over a bottle of wine, debating our deeds and whether we left the world a better place.

Stumbled upon it in an airport and read it on a long flight, utterly amazing. It reinforces how literature can find you and change you regardless of the horrible context you find yourself in (the prison camp, not my flight).

Very short but enjoyable book. Finished in one sitting.

@JohnHultquist @HackingLZ I think about this quote at least every week.

Keep your problems smaller than your life. A flat tire is a flat tire. A bad meeting is a bad meeting. A canceled flight is just an extra two hours. These things become catastrophes when you let them. But they stay manageable when you remember the depth of your real life- the people you love, the work you care about, the beautiful years still ahead. Zoom out. Fit your reaction to the size of the problem.

I saw a post on Reddit that said, “When you walk through a museum, you’re not just looking at art. You’re moving through centuries of people trying to explain love, grief, power, beauty, and belonging.” I don’t think I’ve ever seen a museum described so beautifully.

A very overdue announcement - we raised $830M in December at a $7.5bn valuation from Situational Awareness.

The US must add hundreds of gigawatts of compute in the coming years in order to ensure that domestic AI labs continue to win. This is a buildout of unprecedented scale - larger than the Arsenal of Democracy, the Marshall Plan, and the Apollo Program combined.

Fluidstack will build this infrastructure faster and at a larger scale than anyone else on the planet. This will be required to ensure that democracy wins and that every human on Earth benefits from transformatively powerful AI.

We are looking for exceptional people to come join us - my DMs are open - please reach out.

In the Frasier series finale, Kelsey Grammer recites the entire final stanza of Alfred Tennyson’s Victorian-era poem “Ulysses,” about the last voyage of Odysseus, in an episode that was seen by twenty-five million people.

Nolan’s adaptation of Homer looks all wrong. Old ships and wooden horses and mythical creatures. Homer works at a power plant and eats donuts. He’s friends with Lenny and Carl. I guess we’ll see. 🤷‍♂️
