WTF is this? No wonder Microsoft is eliminating 60,000 employees. Apparently all they do is snack and lounge around all day... My work day looks NOTHING like this!
This is how a typical day working at Microsoft looked like. These jobs aren’t coming back. AI will do them. Factory worker brain from 60 years ago cannot comprehend such working conditions.

I’m very sorry her father is an alleged paedophile and that she knew this while falsely accusing the Royal Family of being callous racists.

As someone with a portfolio of energized land assets here is what I am seeing: 1. Neoclouds are disorganized and poorly capitalized. Some are definitely better than others however. 2. Hyperscalers are intractable, bureaucratic organizations that take 3 months to do an NDA and want 18mo escrow periods. We built our portfolio by competing against these terms because of our speed and simplicity. The more future assets orgs like ours win, the bigger the problem for the hyperscalers downstream (see 3). 3. There are delays in the existing pipeline that will catch people off guard in 2027. Hyperacalers will (obviously) react by focusing on their own internal compute needs over any third party. If the third party is a model company, they will tell them to go through their model router where they will also take a non-trivial vig. Them telling Ant they have no compute for them (rumored in Ant’s S-1) if true is a huge tell that this is already happening. All of this is to say that it does look like there will be a lot of partially stranded compute and compute sitting in inventory in 2027 than is currently forecasted. This is bought and paid for but effectively underearning (below total cost of capital) or collecting dust. We see this as true for everyone - model companies, hyperscalers, neoclouds except ONE (you can guess which one). This dislocation will benefit two kinds of orgs: the non-bureaucratic big scalers who can build industrial scale quickly and the nimble, well capitalized players feeding them. 2027 will be a turbulent year because it will clear out a bunch of wrong/bad bets. It will also be a consolidation year for a few.

I think we’re going to see a lot of stranded compute in partially complete data centers

Canada once captured Vimy Ridge, stormed Juno Beach on D-Day, and freed the Netherlands from the Nazis. Today, its leaders embrace the regimes of China, Qatar, and Turkey, while locking the comments on their woke posts to shut out criticism,

One person killed by a white schizophrenic is a ‘turning point’ for France but the Bataclan massacre (130 dead) and Charlie Hebdo weren’t? Got it, okay.
Terrorist shooting in Paris suburb marks 'turning point for France', Macron says trib.al/ZstVQnF
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Macron called the attack a turning point as the first terrorist act targeting victims based on skin color or religion, but the 2012 Toulouse shootings by Mohammed Merah were Islamist terrorist attacks targeting a Jewish school and victims due to their religion. lefigaro.fr/politique/prem… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toulouse_…

New 30 km/h area speed limit signs will be posted at neighbourhood entry and exit points. Once you enter a signed area, the 30 km/h speed limit applies throughout the local road network until you leave that area. Slower speeds help reduce the risk of serious collisions and make neighbourhood streets safer. Learn more about the change: toronto.ca/LocalSpeed
