*Nadella highlighted that “some of the biggest businesses we’ve built might not be as relevant going forward,” specifically worrying that Office, Excel, Word, and PowerPoint—products that have underpinned Microsoft’s growth—could be superseded by generative AI models capable of automating their core functions. He emphasized that long-held business categories might lose significance and that Microsoft’s value depends on its ability to continually create what’s relevant in fast-changing markets, rather than relying on legacy products.*

An interesting concept: hyperpalatability.
*There is science to suggest that indeed, some people clearly experience something very much like addiction from ultraprocessed foods. And we already have reasonable evidence that diets high in ultraprocessed foods are likely harmful to health.
Now, we have new science that suggests we overeat ultraprocessed foods mainly because they are energy dense and are formulated with nutrient combinations that are defined as hyperpalatable.*

*LLM decompression isn’t a silver bullet, but it’s a practical technique for systematically extracting value from trained models. The key insight is treating inference as a knowledge extraction tool rather than just a generation mechanism.
With efficient inference infrastructure, we can reverse-engineer the compressed knowledge in any model and convert it into structured, reusable datasets. This has immediate applications in model analysis, knowledge transfer, and training data creation.*

*It could be good for humanity to popularize some kind of sovereign kill-switch software. Something you install on your PC (so you don't need to trust some 3rd party) that would send an email to press/friends/social_media (with secret data you held because of threats) after few days inactivity.
If Kirk knew his at a risk of assassination, he could put all the threats/proofs in the kill-switch-message effectively punishing the assassinators post-mortem.
If every high-profile person did that, every government would think twice before taking down someone.*

*The Controllers' optimal Bitcoin path is a rising, volatility-capped channel: roughly $95k -> $190k median over five years, −30–40% max draw-downs, blow-offs sold, floors defended.*

*Why the clamp works
1) Paper share rises -> realized volatility mechanically falls (inventory + option overwrites).
2) Futures/ETF basis control -> suppresses reflexive squeezes.
3) Perimeter frictions (tax, Acceptable Use Policy, KYC wallets) -> keeps MoE niche; "number go up" is paced, not explosive.*

*If the US government wanted, they'd dramatically slow "illegal" chip exports to China (tighten end-user lists, ultimate consignee scrutiny, sanctions on third-country distributors, firmware locks).
They don't, because the net-benefit of controlled leakage (dependency + visibility + NVIDIA scale + escalation control) beats the cost of full denial (accelerated Chinese substitutes + retaliation + price spikes in global AI supply chains).*

A tokamak is a ring shaped magnetic bottle. Its fields guide charged particles so they loop around the torus instead of striking the walls.
That approach is called magnetic confinement. It lets scientists heat a thin gas until atomic nuclei have enough energy to fuse and release more energy.

They manage to keep the plasma stable for 22 minutes, breaking the Chinese record and bringing practical nuclear fusion closer.
Research teams at Chung-Ang University in South Korea and Qingdao University of Science and Technology have developed a breakthrough ruthenium nanocatalyst that can efficiently produce hydrogen from seawater while resisting corrosion from chloride ions. The catalyst addresses a major hurdle in hydrogen production: the dependence on freshwater in conventional electrolysis.

While ministers repeated the goal of lifting defence spending to 3 per cent of GDP, industry leaders noted that no detailed road map had been published to show how and when that money would be delivered. Without clarity, firms were reluctant to invest in scaling up. The policy that Britain would only buy what was built in Britain was also questioned. It was meant to support resilience and jobs, yet building new production lines and supply chains typically took five years, while demand for equipment was immediate. For certain high-end capabilities the fallback remained the United States, whose delegations were courted heavily. However much Europe talked about autonomy, American technology remained indispensable.
