Remembering that one time 8 years ago when I laid out to my airplane seat neighbor how AI was going to decimate white collar jobs, knowing at the time I probably sounded crazy. Wondering if that guy remembered what I said as we see it unfolding.

What’s the difference between AWS ParallelCluster and AWS Parallel Computing Service?
It’s been a year since we announced AWS Parallel Computing Service (PCS). In a way this is the third generation of Slurm-based HPC orchestrators that we’ve brought to you. We’ve learned much from helping customers deploy serious production workloads on AWS ParallelCluster, which itself grew from the foundations layed by CfnCluster – the open-source project [...]

Yep. The grift keeps on trucking
The U.S. spending $20B to bail out Argentina seems completely random until you find out that hedge fund billionaires bet on their right wing government’s doomed economic plan and could lose a lot of money.
So this is actually a U.S. hedge fund bailout which explains why Trump cares.

Just crazy levels of self owns happening in the US.
A measles outbreak in South Carolina has sent over 150 unvaccinated children into a 21-day quarantine. The event highlights the consequences of local vaccination rates falling below the 95% threshold needed for community immunity.

Saw a post somewhere about how practice is only boring if you're thinking about something else. When you are focused on the actual activity practice is easy. I think this is why I am having trouble getting a regular exercise routine going.

Many media outlets hid the full truth of Trump -- his background in organized crime, his Epstein ties -- out of fear, only to be obliterated by him in the end. Had they not self-censored then, they might not be state-censored now. When you hide the truth, you face the consequences.

Hot take: freemium software deliberately doesn't fix the rough edges of the core product or improve documentation if the main dev stands to benefit from support contracts or running the default platform. Zero incentive to raise the bar.

The dream: AI boosts productivity so much we all get 4-day workweeks.
The reality: AI productivity gains are an excuse for companies to cut staff or ask why you need a hire at all. No one’s handing out Fridays off because your job got easier, just more pressure to justify your existence

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says AI will 'probably' bring 4-day work weeks: 'Every industrial revolution leads to some change in social behavior'
"I have to admit that I'm afraid to say that we are going to be busier in the future than now," Huang said in an interview on Fox Business Network.
