One of the most under-appreciated opportunities for the Tesla Semi is to put @Tesla Solar on the roof of the shipping containers and convert them into mobile tiny homes. And when the owner isn't using it themselves, the Semi could spend its time earning the owner passive income using FSD for shipping companies hauling other containers, and the detached container home could even be rented out on @Airbnb earning a second passive income stream. Truly the possibilities are very exciting @elonmusk @woodhaus2 @larsmoravy @SawyerMerritt @Gfilche @teslaownersSV @wholemars
A robot inside a tech store appeared to attack a person after being shoved, before two store employees stepped in and held it back.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve raised a $40M Series A!
co-led by @MarathonMP and @chemistry, with participation from @Wing_VC, @AMD Ventures, @outsetcap, @fiftyyears, and @ycombinator, and our existing investors doubling down on @wafer_ai. we are also joined by an incredible list of angels, including @JeffDean (CEO, @DiscoLoopAI), @rauchg (CEO, @vercel), @andyfang (CTO, @DoorDash), @kvogt (CEO, Bot), @akothari (COO, @NotionHQ), @eastdakota (CEO, @Cloudflare), @deepgramscott (CEO, @DeepgramAI), and more!
Most inference optimization today is manual, service-heavy, and done one-time before deployment. Wafer’s vision is AI that optimizes AI. Wafer continuously learns from your workload’s traffic patterns and performance constraints, then finds the optimal deployment across model, engine, kernels, and hardware.
This capital helps us accelerate automating more of the inference optimization loop, giving every deployment the leverage of an expert inference-performance team that continuously finds ways to improve performance per dollar.
Thank you to the customers who trusted us with their workloads, the partners who built alongside us, the investors who believed in our mission, and the Wafer team members who have worked tirelessly to turn this vision into reality.

New Test Footage: Black Hawk executes rocket-powered launch of Altius-700.
At Project Convergence Capstone 6, an H-60M Black Hawk crew employed an Altius-700 hunter-killer team to autonomously find the target, pass data across the formation, and strike.
Another successful step towards fielding launched effects with Army Aviation, pushing sensing and weapons deeper into the fight without sending crews with them.
Next up: Altius-700 deploys with a Cavalry unit.
Perhaps my toughest and most surprising lesson on chip startups is you need to believe the new approach can be 50–100x better than incumbents today on some important metric (performance, cost, efficiency, whatever).
That’s a ridiculously high bar.
The brutal math: 4–5 years to reach production scale. Incumbents improve ~2x/year, so they’ll be 16–32x better by then. And the startup still needs another ~3x to overcome ecosystem, switching costs, skepticism and inevitable lack of optimizations.
10x better than today sounds extraordinary… and yet isn’t nearly enough.
Hardware is hard.

New research in Physical Review Applied introduces an algorithm for simulating #quantum systems on classical computers based on OR-represented algebra, enabling simulations at previously impractical scales.

A new study uses femtosecond trPOT to build one of the first reconstructions of an exciton wave function, establishing an experimentally accessible approach to visualize these functions with high spatial, phase, and temporal resolution.

A single neuron does three things and nothing more: weigh its inputs, bend the result with a
curve, then quietly shrink its own mistakes.
z = Σᵢ wᵢxᵢ + b a = 1/(1 + e⁻ᶻ) ŷ = a
That gentle S-shape is the entire reason deep networks can separate data that no straight line
ever could. The same unit now flags tumors, pilots drones, and predicts markets.
It has one goal: make the average distance between ŷ and truth as small as possible.
Linear algebra, then a nonlinearity. That is the art.
How to stop procrastinating:
– When unmotivated, don't clean, scroll, or wait it out
– Do something harder and more uncomfortable than your current state
– The steeper you drop dopamine, the faster you rebound out of it
– Cold shower or cold immersion works: raises dopamine for hours and forces your system to rebound faster
– The discomfort is the mechanism, not a side effect

@teslaownersSV I couldn’t care less. Scam Altman and Greg Stockman are utterly untrustworthy assholes who stole an open source nonprofit.
