You have to admire the level of people’s ingenuity these days. Someone actually ran a simulation swapping the basketball careers of Michael Jordan and LeBron James to see who is truly better. https://t.co/I1zRZlknWd #basketball#nba
It’s actually riveting
The data center debate is really an architectural debate.
Energy. Cooling. Water. Noise. Land. Pollution. Infrastructure strain.
We are learning that intelligence is never just “in the cloud.” It has a body. It has walls. It has a footprint.
My new essay traces the line from Lower Manhattan’s carrier hotels to what I call the cognitive wall: architecture that senses, remembers, and co-regulates.
“The carrier hotel was the place where the network met the city. The cognitive wall is the place where the city begins to think.”

The AI conversation is maturing.
It’s not just “who has the most chips” anymore.
The next race is memory bandwidth, inference economics, context length, batching, latency, cooling, and architecture.
This Reiner Pope conversation with @dwarkesh_sp is where the focus should be moving next.
AI is becoming infrastructure.

Japanese engineers developed a “Sword Tip Visualization System” for the Fencing World Championships, and it makes fencing look absolutely incredible to watch.
this is pretty cool
some MIT students turned a building into a giant playable game of Tetris on Saturday at midnight
rigged each window with LEDs
MIT students are on a diff level
