@gurgavin At $2trillion, a yearly revenue run rate of 88 billion probably doesn't sound so impressive. At that rate GOOGL would be worth $9.9trillion

@total_woke_ You seem to be a confused intellectual. The mental disorder may be in your head and not others.

@benitoz Not really comparing Apples to Apples in terms of the architecture supported by AWS Trainium 3 and Google TPUs. At 1,000,000 chips in a cluster, TPUs have more than twice the compute power. However, TPUs are heavily vertically integrated. Apples and oranges comparison.

@thuhkang They may have to flatten Tehran, before the gap between the two side closes. But that may not be good for the mid terms.

@LanceRoberts There should be a quality of life comparison in there. More money does not equate to better quality of life. Democratic socialist countries are generally happier and have better quality of life at much lower income levels. Lance wouldn't know anything about that.

@ozzy_livin Still waiting for your October call to play out. Time feels like moving in slow motion.

@LizAnnSonders @DataArbor Liz, stop trying to steal the election, seriously, prices have come down so much since the election. Give credit where its due, those BLS guys are going to be fired tomorrow for all the lies. Lock them up.😭

Dario is wrong.
He knows absolutely nothing about the effects of technological revolutions on the labor market.
Don't listen to him, Sam, Yoshua, Geoff, or me on this topic.
Listen to economists who have spent their career studying this, like @Ph_Aghion , @erikbryn , @DAcemogluMIT , @amcafee , @davidautor

@FurkanGozukara I like Christiane Amanpour but reality is, they were worlds apart on negotiations, Iran still saying they want to enrich Uranium. Only an idiot would have kept on negotiating with such a huge difference. They did what they thought was their only option. Iran is a bully.

NASA is the best of America, what America used to be: professional, science-based, dedicated to excellence, idealistic, and dazzlingly ambitious. May America one day recover its NASA soul.

NEWS: Massive budget cuts for US science proposed again by Trump administration

"It's an extinction-level event for science".

The US government is proposing massive cuts to almost every branch of science, from NASA to the National Institutes of Health. NSF would completely eliminate the social, economic and behavioral sciences directorate.

This would decimate the world's leading scientific system.

@ProudSocialist Or maybe Iran war is a pretext to plan for a conflict with China, you get all the manufacturing built up and scale just when you need it.

[Hiral @twithiral]

@ProudSocialist Maybe they plan to use the war as reason to delay the next election. Just like Ukraine.

@StockSavvyShay @fiscal_ai LOL, 🤣 Check the P/E or forward P/E or PEG ratio. You must think people are idiots.

@ZenZingers @seanfeucht Apparently God needs his help. What a God, what a God. There is no limits to the human ego.

[Hiral @twithiral]

@LanceRoberts @LanceRoberts you should follow your own advice, where are the sources for Al Jazeera praising US strikes, or UAE quietly shooting down missiles.I for one think Iran was the biggest threat to the GCC and we just took care of it for them.

@kingtutcap Smells of desperation @flyarcher, how low can you go? Time to bow out if you can't stay in the match.

[Hiral @twithiral]

@phildstewart Dunno, they better have zero when we are done otherwise it was a wasted effort.

[James Ward @JamesWard]

Programming language doesn’t matter until you need to:
- have actual parallelism
- scale horizontally
- scale vertically
- compile 1m LoC
- incrementally compile 1m LOC
- refactor without breaking anything
- review a large diff
- validate a change
- detect and remove dead code
- maintain backwards compatibility
- get a large team working efficiently
- onboard new hires
- validate the security of a system
- invent custom abstractions to reduce duplication
- work around abstractions someone else invented
- troubleshoot production issues at 2am
- be operationally efficient
- deploy on Friday
- deploy 100 times a day
- handle time & timezones correctly
- handle currency correctly
- eliminate null pointer exceptions
- depend on libraries that are maintained & secure
​​- produce something of more value than a tweet

@ozzy_livin So do I.
