Hes saying that caring for oneself is the only thing that matters, that others should fend for themselves.
Thiel is a pure randian. Hes not advocating for building strength to help build up a community. Hes advocating for communities where only the strong can afford to buy into, while everyone else dies.
Just insane ramblings from a man that would be safely ignored if he didn’t have billions of dollars and decades of king making giving him unimaginable leverage into our nation and world.
The bigger, bigger context of the quote is that this game was initially supposed to be released in 2014, and now 2026 is looking unlikely.
And yes, im just talking about squadron 42, the spinoff fps of the even later game that is even farther from release, Star citizen.
The 12 years of release date slippage makes people extra wary about any qualifiers or maybes that the devs add, regardless of context.
That or something like it is literally part of the EU demand. Google has to pay the fine and tell them their next step to ending their conflicts of interest in 60 days.
Openai has an “at cost” azure deal with Microsoft. They don’t make any azure money from them.
This feels like a mix of “keep the bubble moving somehow” hype and a shot across the bow at Microsoft, who are in a nasty back and forth with Openai right now because openai wants to break its early deals with Microsoft to go fully for profit to get a large amount of funds from Softbank. Microsoft isn’t okay with that, as it would cost them exclusivity to Openais tech and various other things.
If you’re sure you’re going to make $1,000,000,000,000,000 as long as you hold onto 10000 pieces of paper, selling them for way, way less than that is very stupid. Even if it’s generational wealth, it’s still very stupid.
Most of the openai share owners are already millionares, either via the high salaries or whatever. To have people like altman, a billionaire, sell “trillionare” shares for mere millions of even hundreds of millions strongly implies a need to cash put at the top of the bubble, put those hundreds of millions in your hyped up pocket, and let the rubes hold the bag.
The other part of this is the marketing. It may very well be the biggest IPO ever, which will be splashy and loud and keep the bubble going longer, which is exactly something you want if you have no substance to show instead.
The jury basically did exactly that. They weren’t buying Tesla’s multi-year denial that they had the data as an “oopsy doopsy” story.
They found Tesla liable for $235 million. It’s the first case Tesla hasent been able to settle, and that’s a big ol’ number. They are going to have more lawsuits coming.
China spending 1/20 of what the US does to subsidize cars isn’t relevant? Sure thing buddy.
The whole point of all of these “china is only dominating in EV sales due to subsidies” comments is to throw shade on China’s impressive progress in clean tech. A contrast of their subsidies vs other countries in the same space, motor vehicles, is entirely relevant.
You should learn about US fossil fuel subsidies. The US alone pumps almost 800 billion/yr into subsidising the industry. Total subsidies worldwide are around 7 trillion/yr.
China tossing 40 Billion/yr into EV/battery subsidies is basically pocket change.
The video is 2 years old. Any new developments?
ZFS has built in error checking and correction if you have parity data. Its less if they have had corruption and more that it doesnt matter, because their system is designed to correct it automatically anyway.
With EXT4 over 30 years, you’ve likely been lucky or unaware of any corruption. Guess thats the same thing in the end.
Just use solar panels to power the ac to cool the water that makes the nuclear. Bonus points for floating solar arrays that cool the panels while shading the cooling water.
Extra bonus: you get to blame perfectly functional renewables when nuclear fails.
15k for several distinct hotspots in a city is pretty reasonable, depending on what equipment they are using.
Enterprise quality IT gear is expensive. Each access point can easily be 1k, and that excludes any routers/firewall/switching that you may need at each site. As an example, I’ve worked in places that had small retail locations that at a minimum had 8k of network equipment, with some locations pushing into the 100k+ range based on needs and size. That’s per site. The above is all in USD, but just equipment. Labor can add 30% to the costs.
15k euro for a whole city that includes equipment and installation sounds very fiscally responsible.
Im sure they’ll try to get you to order ammo as they explode.
Check out mango. Its pleasant and has a really nice interface.

The ceo is the son of one of the founders of Inuit, the turbotax/quickbooks company. Hes even on sliptgates board.
The owner is pure nepo and will never face any consequence for failure. Its pretty easy to see why they dont care about killing the company and fucking the employees.
Plus market dynamics means that even if it’s 90% cheaper to make, they will only reduce the price compared to LFP by 10% to maximize profits.
