   So about 5 years behind the cutting edge, SMIC showed their advanced lithography tools today(still no ASML) but come 2030 at this rate? Hard to say they won’t catch up.

   What’s the play here, China based revenue now makes 6% of Nvidia’s revenue down from 25% pre export control. Clearly the businesses claim they need Nvidia chips, so what are they trying to signal here?

   White bark pine in Yellowstone would die off if not for the Clarks nutcracker. Seed dispersing animals are incredibly important.

   https://archive.is/GJWPP Bloomberg article is better, has more details on the remedy. IMHO: They got off easy. Looking forward to reading Matt Stoller’s take on this.

    You do get to see them as white fast moving dots at night though. It doesn’t bother be personally but I can see people having issues with that.

    Came here to say that Big Query is a phenomenal product, that alone is a reason for a lot of companies to adopt GCP.

    Agreed. It was a bizarre exit and they did screw over their employees which leads to me to believe that the GenAI IDE market will be the first to implode.

    Good point. I wonder if the Windsurf folks saw the writing on the wall and cashed out when they could.

    The money committed to payroll for these supposed top AI is equivalent to a mid size startup’s payroll, no wonder they had to hit pause.

    Makes sense the payroll numbers of true are those of a 300+ person AI startup.

    Here in the US. I think for the young population there is a genuine affordability crisis, coupled with health insurance being so expensive it is a genuine blocker for a lot of people.

    Google already paid $2.4B out of the $3B OpenAI deal, to what I imagine is Cognition now. Cognition must have spent low 100s of Millions max.

    I hope Windsurf employees made some money in this whole kerfuffle. Would be terrible if they got left out of the payday.

    How long does Windsurf go on now? Losing your CEO to a poach job not even an acquihire must blow up any fund raising plans.

    Xbox has really become a sore point in the MS portfolio. Their pivot to a marketplace model where their games run everywhere is an admission that they lost the race to Sony. Block buster acquisition like Activision further have exacerbated

    This I can get behind. The Monday morning smell of gasoline fumes and noise is something I can do without.
