The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
@mfb_king_dbx@lemire I expect multi-board combos to be announced before fall 2026. It's such an obvious combination. The limiting factor will be availability of chips, but once chips are abundant so will the multi-chip clusters be.
@BobMcElrath@lemire Everyone will run at least some of their workloads locally. The mix will tilt massively towards on-device in the years to come. Paradoxically, this may in fact increase the off-local use also, since the local AI will be very good at figuring out how to use external AI.
@Michael_J_Black This is the most amazing thing I’ve seen this year, and given what year we’re in, that really says something. Incredible work and groundbreaking results! Congratulations.
UNIX shell scripting is concurrent functional programming, and was always intended to be. C programmers in shambles.
(Seriously—the UNIX tradition of “only produce results of computation to stdout” is so piping output to another process works!)
it's getting to the point that when something isn't agentic, I get noticeably irritated. I firmly believe this is the right instinct. Most tasks are BS and should be agentic anyway.
nobody wants to hear this but the classical NASA systems engineering is the perfect model for developing code with LLMs. people try to approximate this with planning modes, but if you’re explicit in your docs it’s never been easier to build, test, and verify complex codebases.
It's 2026. We're back to multi-hour-long compilation times, only this time it's human understandable specs that are being compiled into fully documented human critiquable systems. What time to be alive.
Meet Agnessa Pedersen - the 23 year old from Norway building mind controlled drones.
She has just spent the last 6 months in Ukraine building the product.
She has built non-invasive brain-computer interfaces that eliminate the need for physical controls, such as joysticks.
Her company, CEREBIONICS, is betting that all physical systems in the future will be controlled and operated via brain-computer interfaces.
At age 16 she built a robot arm in her bedroom to draw portraits for her, and now she's building mind-controlled drones.
WTF
Europe has some of the most amazing founders building the technology of the future.
And she's backed by @ProjectEurope_.
Great stuff @Kitty_Mayo_, @HarryStebbings.
@samoverunder@DanielSmidstrup@getalertio Exactly. They have money and just as important: playbooks for how to grow fast by spending it, and people who knows how to play their parts in those playbooks. Europe need to ramp up both. Basic tech is where the gap is smallest.
@rmz@DanielSmidstrup@getalertio I don't think the CEOs in Europe 'dont understand' but I feel our over regulated nature in Europe means we can only grow so far so fast. While America can steam roll ahead backed with capital we can only dream of.
