As I’ve said on the podcast, one you pass a certain income level inflation means absolutely nothing to you.
I noticed when my strip steaks went from $60 to $80 to $120 — but it had zero impact on my behavior
I have friends who haven’t flown commercial or been to a supermarket since 2000… they don’t understand what persistent 3-5% inflation has had on half the country
🚨 NOW: It's just been exposed that the effort to block a data center on an ABANDONED mall lot in Maryland is LINKED TO CHINESE COMMUNISTS
Imagine that.
"The Party for Socialism and Liberation took notice...that group is reportedly linked to controversial Chinese businessman Neville Roy Singham."
The CHINESE are happy with this move.
Their goal is to take every possible opportunity we get to expand our SI lead and give China an advantage.
We can't let them!
The shopping mall closed 24 years ago and was leveled. A data center developer offers to build but gets blocked—leaving the struggling community without jobs, a tax base and the ability to negotiate other concessions.
This NPR story compares it to the civil rights struggle and MLK.
Yes, data centers are the equivalent of the civil rights movement 🤦
My lord, we’ve lost the script, and China is laughing at us while they catch up and conceivably bear us to superintelligence.
Best advice: ask them to downsize the Data Center to half the space, require closed-loop water systems and have them build a giant trade school adjacent to the data center, offering free engineering and construction training to local community residents.
asked my russian gf (who is way out of my league) if she is secretly a spy after the jensen news
she laughed hysterically for a few, paused, and then said:
"you trade animal coins with retarded ppl on the internet"
somehow this is even worse than if she were a kgb agent
Ron DeSantis: "Young people have a very positive view of socialism compared to capitalism. The question is, why is that? Some of it is the education in our universities. But I think a big part of that is, what they're comparing is not free enterprise versus socialism. What they're comparing is how government gets involved in business, and you have crony capitalism. The best kind of indirect supporters of socialism are some of these corporatist republicans who propagate these crony policies. The average person is seeing that and saying, 'Wait a minute, you're trying to bend the government to funnel benefits to this corporation or that industry. What about having a competitive market? ... Young people really aren't seeing that. They're seeing just a handful of companies that have an outsized influence on our economy and on our society"
1) Jensen is one of the greatest entrepreneurs of this generation
2) he did something incredibly dumb
3) it was bad for America
4) but my guess is there was no bad intention
5) two mistakes don’t make a right, and I believe Jensen is irreplaceable for America’s AI leadership
An alert:
@JensenHuang is human. And he is an incredible human. Even incredible humans make mistakes.
He takes full responsibility as he should.
We should all support him and his family.
Onward.
