The first CPU built for agents is going to work at scale. @SpaceX is deploying NVIDIA Vera to accelerate the orchestration, code execution, and data processing that powers its next generation of agentic AI — keeping GPUs fed and agents acting fast. From gigawatt AI factories to orbit. One NVIDIA architecture, everywhere.

Singapore just went all in on birth rates Fertility fell to a record-low 0.87 in 2025. Birth rates have fallen seriously low That’s not just a dip. That’s a whole country nowhere near replacing itself. It's a massive problem for the country So Singapore is going directly after the biggest things making parenthood harder: money, time, childcare and housing Money: - Every Singaporean child will receive around S$70,000 in direct financial support from birth to age 17 - S$10,000 Baby Gift during the first year - S$2,000 every year from age 1 to 16. - Plus MediSave, CDA support, Edusave and another S$10,000 education top-up at 17 - And every child gets the same baseline support regardless of whether they’re the first or fourth child Time: Childcare leave is increasing to: • 8 days for one child • 10 days for two • 12 days for three or more And it now covers children all the way through age 12. The government will cover the cost of statutory child-related leave up to the reimbursement limit, taking that burden off employers Housing: - First-time families will get an extra BTO ballot chance for every child they have or are expecting. - More kids = more chances of securing a home. The BTO income ceiling is also rising from S$14,000 to S$16,000 Childcare: - Government-supported full-day childcare is being pushed toward S$150/month and infant care toward S$300/month by 2030 Cash alone was never going to fix collapsing birth rates. Singapore is attacking the actual friction around having children: the cost, the time, childcare and getting a home If you want people to have more children, make having children easier Singapore is actually trying that

this is the real problem most people just don't realize the scale of the fertility collapse. population pyramid inversion in almost all countries and old people massively outnumbering kids is THE cataclysm you won't see the tsunami coming or the meteor in the sky or people dying in a pandemic, but that doesn't mean it’s less existential In the US, if the current fertility trajectory continues, for every 100 people today you'll be left with 25 people in a century. that's like having a pandemic that kills 75% of people worse than your “cataclysmic” bubonic plague. but it happens slower and for self centered people it’s impossible to grasp. the tragedy of modern man is that he has been removed from history and for him nothing exists but today and maybe tomorrow, that’s a real catastrophe. “it doesn’t affect me personally so it’s not a problem” what’s even worse is that the economy might even keep doing great because of AI and robots. the market will boom while humans bring themselves to extinction. you can have rising GDP per capita and a dying civilization at the same time things always get better until they don't

SpaceX has just officially announced Starbase, Louisiana, a new $100+ billion spaceport in South Louisiana near Pecan Island. Construction starts in 2027, with the first Starship launch from the new site planned for 2029. Starbase, Louisiana will be built to support thousands of Starship flights a year. This self-sustaining spaceport will have propellant production, power generation, deep-water shipping capabilities, vehicle processing facilities, and an airport. SpaceX is committed to investing at least $100 billion and creating more than 3,000 new jobs at Starbase, Louisana hiring heavily from nearby communities and utilizing Louisiana workers’ extensive experience of building complex infrastructure in their unique environment. In Vermilion Parish, the shoreline is eroding between 3.3 and 23 feet per year. SpaceX is partnering with state and federal agencies to expand Louisiana’s Coastal Master Plan and Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act projects, including Gulf shoreline protection breakwaters designed to reduce wave energy and slow loss along the Gulf edge.
