No major surprise here. >100 distinct car brands competing in basically the same market. Massive subsidies driven by provincial governments’ desires to be *the* automotive manufacturing region.

Will take serious and thoughtful intervention from the CCP to prevent a minor catastrophe here.

IMO if this doesn't raise >$500m we've passed peak bubble. The "growth" of the last couple of years is only justified by an end-goal of true AGI/ASI. If the industry doesn't jump on this they've given up on that goal and will be judged by the markets accordingly.

One thing that I think isn’t discussed enough in the context of AI capex spend is the HUGE involvement of private equity/credit. The Hyperscalers ™️ are leaning heavily on joint venture type partnerships to scale up investments without dirtying their balance sheets too much.

Very interesting paper from DeepSeek. In training a 3B OCR model, they discovered that its encoder could be used to “compress” textual information into an image format that the decoder could understand with 97% precision.

I know they say history repeats itself but this is taking the piss. MI5 must have seen the 23 year anniversary coming up and had a sudden epiphany for how handle this whole Iran ordeal.

This is insanely cool. They’re claiming SOTA performance on maths and code with NO LABELLED DATA.

From what I can tell they’re using a sort of GAN-esque paradigm with a “Proposer” (generates tasks) and “Solver” (produces solutions) instead of a generator/discriminator.

This is what ICE does: just like they stalked the family’s car and smashed the windows in to kidnap them.

They attack people on the streets grab them and take them to concentration camps.

Entire neighborhoods gather to protect little babies & their moms from being separated & kidnapped.

Gerry Adams is nothing if not committed to the bit - fair play

We have had nearly two decades of panic about Free Speech on Campus and not a single case, not even the ones they made up, were as bad as what's happening now

Reasoning in latent space is one of those things that just *feels* like it should have huge potential - will be interesting to see how larger models based on this approach perform in more general applications

For anyone else that likes messing around with potential coalitions - i hacked together a small app

I have a real appreciation for people that fulfil stereotypes to a cartoonish extent. Pilot with thick moustache and aviators, fireman with Dalmatian, etc. but Willie O’Dea is taking the piss. I have never seen a more brown-envelope-taking-‘90s-Fianna-Fáil politician-looking person in my life. #GE24

Is there a mainstream “Developer” feed on here that isn’t largely BlueSky/dApp dev focused? I think that stuff is cool and all but feel like it kind of obscures the more general dev discussions you’d see on Twitter.
