NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang addresses employees following reports of ties to suspected Chinese spy.
"I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her and our children. There is no excuse for what I did. I am deeply sorry.
Throughout my life, my family has given me love and support. They deserve my honesty and loyalty. Instead, I let them down and damaged the life we built together. I take full responsibility for what I did and the hurt I caused, and I accept the criticism that comes with it.
To my wife and family: I love you. I know an apology cannot undo what I have done. I hope our family will heal and that, over time, I can earn back your trust.
To my colleagues at Nvidia, including those I have worked alongside for decades, our board, partners, and shareholders around the world: you deserve better from me. Leading Nvidia is the privilege of my life. My responsibility is to serve you and be worthy of your trust. I have fallen short of that responsibility. I am fully committed to Nvidia and will work to earn back your confidence."

People will stand in line for an hour for another human to press the computer keys for them instead of just checking in at home on their phone

My conspiracy theory is the data center thing is funded by Virginia and Texas and maybe a few other states to attract more data centers
The results are in and data centers lost 46 of 47 ballot initiatives in the midterms.
We should expect to see those failures met by even larger-scale bans when new governors, Congressmen, and state officials take office.

You can find the details of their last big upgrade from the 1990's and the tech they used was outdated then too.
IP and ethernet were on a tear in the 1990's and the FAA used some older 70's or 80's networking tech
Probably because of old people in charge

CVS stores are perpetually empty. The pharmacy holds up the garbage that sits on the shelves and never sells.
CVS CEO David Joyner just said on CNBC that the Break Up Big Medicine legislation by @SenWarren and Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) is one reason he is breaking up his company.

there are non-stop flights from NYC to St. Louis. Why would anyone want to take a train there and stop in chicago?

how could anyone who works in tech be this stupid
treat your work laptop like a pure unspoiled virgin
Binance published the postmortem on its $6.34 billion hack.
It started in June.
An engineer searched for an AI coding tool.
Downloaded a tampered Homebrew installer.
Binance caught it. Replaced the laptop. Rotated the credentials.
But the attackers had already learned who worked on the wallet team.
September.
A second engineer gets approached on a real job platform.
By someone posing as a project director.
Live video interview with "HR".
Then a take-home assignment.
Downloaded onto a work laptop.
The assignment swapped pyenv for a malicious copy.
Binance's security tools didn't flag it.
October 20.
The attacker used that machine and Binance's own internal AI tool to reach two more wallet engineers.
One had a container deployment token sitting on his laptop.
October 29.
Container deployed. Signing service reached.
Funds started leaving at 20:05 UTC.
Binance suspended withdrawals.
The money kept leaving.
The attacker had already authorized his own contract on the hot wallet, on-chain.
Halting withdrawals didn't touch it.
Revoking it was harder.
The wallet uses MPC.
No single private key exists to sign the revoke.
So Binance had to design a revoke procedure while the funds were still moving.
The last stolen ETH left almost four hours after the first transfer.
The security model designed so no one person could steal the keys.
Also meant no one person could stop it.
Binance says it recovered about 2.85 billion.
And put aside enough to cover the rest.
The FBI says North Korea did it.
Five months of recruiting, interviewing and waiting.
The most expensive take-home assignment ever submitted.

I wonder if they order one medal per runner or a little less than the total number of runners expecting some to DNF

NYRR says to use the portable toilets for the marathon. They had hundreds for the race. They were in the corrals right before you head off to the start line.
They warn you that you can be banned for doing it in the street. Some guy peeing on I-278 about 2 miles in
People dumb

I don't know why, but when i did this walk for the first time after the NYC Marathon last year I thought of the Bataan Death March from WW2

Craziest thing about the NYC Marathon is there are three groups that run different routes and they all equal the same distance.
I call this the great merge where the pink group joins blue and orange on 4th ave in Brooklyn.
We ran a mile on I-278

The emperors of the Holy Roman Empire and other kingdoms were also elected.
GL didn't make this up
One very strange thing about Star Wars politics: “Queen” Amidala is supposedly democratically elected. I suppose Lucas liked the optics of royalty but didn’t want to show a good hereditary monarch. But that raises an interesting question, why the hell would Naboo CHOOSE to elect a 13 year old? Have you met one?
