Substack is how twitter was in 2018. Plethora of novel and insightful content.

🚨 SHOCKING: LISA SU’S $1,499 LUNCHBOX ANNIHILATES NVIDIA’S $4K AI BEAST!

AMD CEO Lisa Su walked on stage, held a lunchbox sized PC in one hand, and ran a 235 billion parameter model live.

No data center. No cloud. No rented GPU.

The chip inside is the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395. It is the first x86 chip where the CPU and GPU share the same pool of memory. Up to 128GB of unified memory. That one design choice is what changes everything.

An RTX 5090 gives you 32GB of video memory. A 4090 gives you 24. This box gives you more than three times either of them in a chassis you can carry in a backpack.

On DeepSeek R1 inference, AMD's chip beat an Nvidia RTX 5080 by more than 3x. A desktop the size of a thick paperback outrunning a dedicated graphics card that costs over a thousand dollars on a real AI workload.

Now do the math on your subscriptions.

Claude Code Max is $200 a month. ChatGPT Pro is another $200. Cursor is $20. Gemini is $20. That is $5,280 leaving your account every year before you build a single thing.

The 128GB version of this machine starts at around $2,399. At that run rate it pays for itself in under a year and then runs free.

Install Ollama. Pull Qwen3 235B. Point Claude Code at localhost. Same interface you already use. Nothing leaves your machine. Nothing costs per request. No throttling at 3am when you finally have time to build.

Lawyers stop worrying about what OpenAI does with their files. Developers stop watching the token counter. Founders stop killing prototypes because the cloud bill scared them off.

Private AI just became something a normal person can own.

We’re proud to share our latest advance in fault-tolerant quantum computing using high-rate quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes, which we have found directly reduce qubit overhead.

With our trapped-ion hardware, we can demonstrate logical qubits with a high encoding rate on a single device, which requires much lower qubit overhead than other popular approaches like the surface code. This result represents substantial progress toward IonQ’s large-scale quantum architecture.

Congratulations to the team who have been working across labs on this research: Edwin Tham, Michael Goldman, Shantanu Debnath, Ashay Patel, Jyothi Saraladevi, Jason Nguyen, Erik Nielsen, Neal Pisenti, Kenneth Wright, John Gamble, and Nicolas Delfosse.

Make new friends, but keep the old.

A new photo captures the Moon's near side on the right (the side we see from Earth, identifiable by its dark splotches) and its far side on the left. The Artemis II crew are the first to see the far side with human eyes.

[NASA @NASA]

It’s not a straight shot to the far side of the Moon! 🌕

Over approximately 10 days, the Artemis II astronauts will orbit Earth twice before looping around the far side of the Moon in a figure eight and returning home.

@oprydai @jack Money and direction is the real gap, things can be engineered with right funding into a project.

🚨 Do you understand what happened in the last 24 hours?

> Zuckerberg killed the Metaverse after burning $80 billion on cartoon avatars nobody used

> Sam Altman took $13 billion from Microsoft then sold OpenAI's cloud to Amazon for $50 billion.. Microsoft just found out they funded their own competition

> Anthropic made an AI that takes orders from your phone and does your work while you sleep..

> X dropped a dislike button AND a mute-entire-countries button in the same week..

> YouTube asking you to flag AI slop is just Google getting 2 billion people to train their next model for free

> 93% of US jobs can now be partly done by AI.. Same week companies started giving the weakest raises since 2008

> Apple started rejecting vibe-coded apps from the App Store

> xAI is paying Wall Street bankers $100/hour to teach Grok how to replace Wall Street bankers.. They're taking the money..

> A mystery AI model appeared on benchmarks beating everything.. Developers think DeepSeek is quietly testing their next weapon

> Bloomberg asked "Is the AI bubble about to burst" the same day Nvidia said the chip market will hit $1 trillion.. One of them is dead wrong..

> The UK government backed down on AI copyright after artists revolted.. First government to flinch

> The Fed said rate hikes are back on the table and blamed AI data centers for making inflation worse

And it's only Wednesday. See you tomorrow. It'll be worse.

Software engineering was never about coding. Code is the last step, like pouring concrete into a foundation. The real work is architecture, systems thinking, trade-offs, and product-market fit.

You’re confusing tools with the discipline. Better materials don’t change structural physics. AI may help you build faster, but it doesn’t replace engineering judgment.

And engineering isn’t about chasing perceived demand for personal gain, it’s about building systems that actually solve customer problems. If the outcome for users is secondary, that’s not engineering, that’s chasing a payslip.

[Osho Priya @osho_priya]

@bercankilic @chris_j_paxton Open AI trained their data the same way, using African workers.

India doesn’t pay its workers in dollars. Purchase parity.

Ironic though that you use AI generated image as your background on X. This kind of rendering wastes a lot of electricity, water, and US taxpayer’s money.

This experiment is profound... it suggests there is an underlying geometry to causality, it takes time for the topology to unravel like our particle meeting its antiparticle! https://t.co/8R4u8hvhGB

Same. It’s definitely the caffeine reposting.

[Lex Fridman @lexfridman]

It might be the caffeine speaking, but I love you all ❤️

Happy Valentine's day you sexy mf'ers.

I'm writing this at a coffeeshop. Rain outside. A first date happening next to me, I'm hoping they make it.

I'm feeling happy & grateful for all of this, human civilization, life on Earth, a spinning rock in space. There are 100-400 billion other planets in our galaxy alone. And there are ~2 trillion galaxies in just the observable universe.

And somehow we have a chance to crack open the mysteries of the universe, to solve physics, biology, intelligence, to understand our own mind, to travel out toward the stars.

And at the same time, we often bicker about the stupidest shit. The whole thing is hilarious and beautiful.

All of this is a miracle ❤️

PS: It's definitely the caffeine speaking 🤣

whoa. A robot made of liquid.

These shape-shifting robots basically behave like a liquid, so they can slip through tight gaps, but they still don’t fall apart. A team at Seoul National University made them and calls them particle-armored liquid robots, or PBs.

The core idea is simple: it’s a water droplet wrapped in a thick coat of hydrophobic particles. That outer particle “armor” gives it mechanical strength, while the inside stays liquid. Because of that combo, PBs can move through messy spaces, swallow and carry cargo, fuse with other PBs, and even go from water onto land without breaking.

They move using acoustic radiation forces, which is basically sound waves pushing them.

The neat trick is how they get that particle coat to be so dense. They freeze water into a cuboid (like an ice cube), coat the ice with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) particles, then let it melt. When the ice turns back into water, the particles stay tightly packed on the surface, forming a tougher shell than older methods.

That extra particle density boosts stability, so PBs can take compression and impacts that would pop less-armored liquid robots.

The team suggests future use as soft, wireless robots inside the human body for targeted drug delivery, like getting drugs right to a tumor site.
