Scott Galloway said Jensen Huang would resign "in the next 72 hours"
He posted this last night. This morning Nvidia's board announced Huang was out as president, CEO and board member, effective immediately π³
Why he was so sure:
β The board wasn't going to fire him. They opened a special committee but never put him on leave
β The White House wanted the stock up, so nobody there would push him either
β The pressure would come from a Senate hearing, where every text and email gets read back to him under oath
The same day, a New York Times report said Huang had a second relationship, with an Nvidia executive who reported to him
"I usually get the timing wrong, but there is just no way this guy gets out of this"
Love Is Blind's Sarah found out her husband was texting an escort and swiping on Tinder at 3am while she was asleep at home π³

Bre Tiesi had a baby with Nick Cannon and wants him out of her house at least 4 days a week
In the video below she explains why:
she doesn't cook, she doesn't clean, she doesn't want his clothes in her house
he can come over on Thursday for date night
and she has always had multiple partners at a time
When women tell her they could never share a man, her answer is "well girl, I'm not you"
Could you live like this?
Replit CEO Amjad Masad says a big company scoped an internal project at $10 million. They built it on Replit for $250,000
In the video below, he tells Paul Graham why he thinks the whole outsourcing industry is "sort of dead at this point"
Replit started as a coding site for students and teenage hackers. Then it went all in on AI agents that write and ship the app for you
The first people who paid them real money weren't programmers at all. They were people who used to hire freelancers on outsourcing sites:
β an app from an engineer somewhere: around $100,000
β the same app from Replit: around $1,000
He calls it a two orders of magnitude difference, and says it is still that big today
At one point Replit even ran "bounties" where teenagers on the platform built software for clients using AI. It grew fast and he shut it down himself, because he could see customers would soon skip the teenagers and ask the agent directly
Now the same thing is happening inside banks and multinationals. A few employees start vibe coding internal tools, and suddenly SaaS they pay millions for gets replaced
Paul Graham admits he used to think outsourcing shops were just terrible. Looking back, he says they were a sign of demand all along
Is this the end of hiring developers for simple apps, or will $1,000 AI apps create more work for real engineers?

Bobby Cummines ran a London crime firm in the 70s and charged people "insurance" so their shop windows stayed in one piece. Later he knelt in front of the Queen and got an OBE
In the video below, he explains how a man in his world shoots someone and still sleeps at night
He grew up the youngest of 8 kids in a family of "straight goers". He says he was the one who corrupted them all, because they had never seen that kind of money
By his teens he was doing armed robberies. Later he named his sawn-off shotgun Kennedy, because his birthday is November 23 and JFK was shot on the 22nd
His answer to how you pull the trigger is cold. You stop seeing a person. You see a rat. "If you start thinking about wives, kids, grandmothers, you couldn't do it"
But one death broke the rule. In 1978 a hostage died during a robbery, choking on a gag. He went down for manslaughter and spent around 12 years in max security, including Parkhurst, Britain's Alcatraz
He says it's the one thing in his life he would undo, and he still lights a candle for that person in church
When he got out he co-founded Unlock, a charity for ex-prisoners, and spent decades telling kids in schools and jails that crime isn't glamorous
In 2011 the Queen gave him an OBE. He died this March at 74
Can a man who lived like that ever really pay it back, or does some of it stay on you forever?

Dan Houser wrote Grand Theft Auto for 21 years and helped make it one of the best-selling game series ever. He says the whole time he felt like "a terrible fraud"
In the video below, he tells Lex Fridman what the pressure behind GTA really looked like
He co-founded Rockstar and was the lead writer on GTA III, Vice City, San Andreas, GTA IV, GTA V and both Red Dead Redemption games
The money side was never as safe as it looked from the outside:
β when GTA III came out, the company was "basically broke"
β during GTA IV the Hot Coffee scandal nearly made Rockstar implode "several times"
β on Red Dead Redemption 2 they were behind schedule and "over budget so much I didn't want to think about it"
His rule for not going insane: you are spending a huge amount of someone else's money, and the only way to make it back is to make something great. If it didn't sell, that had to be okay
He left Rockstar in 2020 and did not write GTA VI, which comes out on November 19
From a broke studio to the most anticipated game ever, and the man who wrote the first ones will be playing it like everyone else
Will GTA VI still feel like GTA without Dan Houser, or was it always the team?
