Simple. Most billionaires are French-style aristocrats at heart and believe that they can once in a while throw a couple of dollar bills at the proles, and those will then build their palaces and empires for them like good worker ants. If they dress in denim and Hawaiian t-shirts and drink coffee with you for a minute at their regular talkathons, it's just show. They are not your friend, you will never be their friend, they don't want you near them for more than a minute at a time because they know all too well that most of you want their dosh, and they have professionals employed to make sure that very little trickles down to you. Stop being hopeful dumbfucks. View quoted note →

" Write a professional and engaging post from the perspective of Microsoft’s CEO, highlighting the impact of GPT-5 being integrated into Microsoft 365 Copilot. The tweet should: •Mention that it has been a few weeks since GPT-5 launched in Copilot. •Emphasize how it has quickly become part of the CEO’s daily workflow across apps. •Announce that 5 example prompts will be shared to showcase what’s possible. Keep it clear, concise, and in the tone of a tech leader." Microsoft is a company on the global top 10 of valuations, and the CEO is posting low quality engagement bait. "AI" Crash in coming in 2026, I predict, and I can't wait. View quoted note →

The strange thing about RFK is that while he is certainly an oddbal with certain strange if not outright wrong ideas, he is at the same time, in a few other ways, one of the most grounded and compassionate people in the Trump administration, which is replete with persons that are seemingly all too happy wielding power nearly indiscriminately and with few regards to the costs of their actions.

So, I was at a stand up comedy show in Russia where the comedian was making fun of Putin. The jokes weren’t that good but I loved the execution. #lol

I really, really hope that the 15th generation of Intel processors will be splendid good, because intel is a dead man walking if they keep fucking up. They're losing datacenter market share to Qualcomm and their gfx offerings have scarcely a thing on either Nvidia or AMD. But Linux users are up shit creek with AMD because AMDs implementation and optimization of both cpu and gfx architecture is lacking. As much as I wanted AMD to smack up intel good, it's not happening b/c i keep running into system instability when running Linux on AMD hardware, and that makes it useless for me. So i'm realistically stuck with intel. The clock is ticking. View quoted note →

The AI Report That's Spooking Wall Street

The majority of companies are failing to see any returns on their AI investments, a report finds.

q: "A new report from MIT is casting doubt on the hype around the financial value AI brings to businesses, and may be triggering a small tech stock sell-off on Tuesday. The report, The GenAI Divide: State of AI in Business 2025, found that the promised AI gold rush isn’t paying off for most companies yet." The comparison to the Gold Rushes of the US is apt since it was the case that it was not the gold diggers that became rich from the gold mania; it was those who sold tools and supplies to the hopeful golddiggers. Always beware of manias. #econ
