Geopolitics is now edging into the domain of computing, machine intelligence and NVIDIA. This is now touted as a political move for subsequent negotiations by and between the United States of America and the People’s Republic of China. This translates into the need for radical transformation in how existing LLMs and their underlying languages (Python, etc.) shift their respective technological hardware and computational dependence away from a uni-vendor set-up into more durable supply chain resilience. It’s already happening. Are you ready? Original CNBC Article:

Speaker Johnson says China is straining U.S. relations with Nvidia chip ban

The Cyberspace Administration of China ordered companies to halt purchases of Nvidia's RTX Pro 6000D, a chip that was made for the country.

When it comes to #money, a lot of wise eyes and ears pay attention to what sort of perspectives are deliberated from the likes of #JPMorganChase. So it’s not surprising that by connecting the dots between Figure 4 and Figure 8 in it’s September 2025 Energy Report, massive offshore wind energy reserves are within a day’s sail away to most LNG import and export terminals around the globe. It also means that by recycling all that supersaturated carbon in the world’s oceans into circular non-fossil natural gas product, makes a lot of commercial sense when it comes to operating an economically sustainable energy model. A model that is resilient, independent, and forever. Total world energy consumption in 2022 totals 27,000 TWh, ocean wave #energy potential alone, stands at 29,500 TWh. By recovering selected minerals from seawater brine, non-fossil natural #gas product is generated at competitive costs for energy markets. Today. A single #ThessalonicaHydroship GPA vessel (“Gas Production Area”) has a minimum capacity of 25,000,000 MMbtus per annum.
