"from a global allocation perspective" is exactly what's wrong with these type people. Next they will take your car; it's only used 5% of the time. Then your XBOX. Then your wife.
I love having powerful computers that sit there and wait for me. That's what it means to be rich.
sam: local inference is a terrible allocation of scarce resources
“a lot of people want local inference, and somehow they assume that the problem is solved now because we have open-source models, we're going to be able to run them on our computers, and so we're not going to need all the stuff in the data centre
but from a global allocation perspective, actually it's quite terrible to have everybody, like, have a bunch of the world's limited supply of DRAM sitting in their own computer and being used five percent of the time
you want maximum utilisation in the cloud if you're trying to deal with this very supply-constrained environment
somehow many people's intuition is the opposite of that”

Massively underreported: an official Claude Code extension was compromised and installed backdoors on developer machines.
Could it be behind the Binance hack?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The post misstates the facts: a tampered copy of the Claude Code extension was published briefly to Cursor's marketplace only and was not developed by Anthropic; official channels and distributions were unaffected.

I mean... I wasnt as bullish as Nik, but it is up 8.24% since this post. Good call out. Respect.
Someone talk me out of putting my ENTIRE net-worth into MCDs??!
It's trading at 5 year lows despite:
- Revenue up 40%
- Operating Income up 70%
- 3.3% dividend (50 years of increases 😳)
- 46k stores, 95% franchised
I freaking LOVE McDonalds but what am I missing?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
McDonald's revenue grew ~16% and operating income ~22% from 2021-2025; the 40%/70% gains reference 2020 pandemic lows instead.

So... is the internet, like... done for?
Turbulent times ahead y'all.
Suddenly taken back to like 2015 or 16, I had a laptop start doing some crazy stuff. At the time, I thought maybe a crypto miner.
I took it off the internet, removed the battery and stuffed it in a box. I still have it to this day.
Kinda curious if I should poke it with claude.
Maybe some coins sitting around in there?

Some stats on #php2shell. In the 10 hours before it was publicly announced, across the @Cloudflare network we saw thousands of attempts to exploit it. That jumped to tens of thousands in the 45 minutes post announcement, hundreds of thousands within 2 hours, and millions now.
One of my former employees shared this on Facebook.
It gave me goosebumps thinking back on all that we accomplished. Thinking back on how, against all odds- I, who grew up with an incarcerated father, had a part in changing the laws that locked him up, stood up an industry, and built an incredible company of some of the best people I've ever had the honor of serving.
I did things I never dreamed were possible for someone like me. I built multi-millon dollar construction projects from the owners side of the table, instead of the engineer's. I hired Doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, HR professionals, security managers... you name it. I grew a company from an idea and a burning desire into a machine with 8 figures of revenue and more than two dozen employees. So much time in the trenches with such a talented group of people taught me more about life, relationships, and purpose than any pther period of my life so far. I will be forever grateful for every experience I gained along the way. That chapter of my life story is closed behind me and the bar for success for the next chapter of my life has been set respectably high. Lets GO!!!
Just picked this up to try to track down a tick noise under the hood of my ICE truck. A problem I wouldn't have if it were CyberTruck.
But for now, since I'm hard of hearing and need to rule out AFM failure, this $8 buy will have to serve us.
My son and I are building some random Halloween decorations when he asks me "do adults think farts are funny?" His mom quickly replies, "Farts will always be funny!"
Reading this thread of Elon and Yan Lecun making fart jokes around flying cars, I'm sure she gave the right answer.
Well this is a first for me... I just dropped my debit card down the window crack into the inside of the door.
Hmm... to try to dig it out or just cancel it and let it rest in peace in there...
Today I learned all the data in my email inbox might be worth about $30 in pizza.

Long overdue but I'm finally setting up my Grok Bot. I'm proud to say the first task it took over for me was managing replies to am OpenAI Support ticket I opened like a week ago.
Thanks Elon!
Seriously though, this bot looks quite promising.
Definitely think im gonna build this.
