"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Most people hear “heat pump” and think of small air-source units at home. But Germany is building one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Mannheim: a 162 MW river-source system using heat from the Rhine.
Big reminder that heat-pumps scale far beyond households — they can decarbonise whole cities.

Here is my peace plan for Ukraine/Russia.
1. Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine.
2. Putin goes on trial in the Hague.
3. Russia pays everyone for everything.
4. Trump gets impeached, convicted, and sent to jail.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.

DOGE is not really gone, it’s just been made standard operating procedure now. Please stop celebrating DOGE ‘ending’ as a ‘win.’ It’s not. Their cuts have already killed 600,000 people. Elon stole all your data. Don’t fall for the clickbait.

Since 2000, political donations from the richest 100 Americans have increased nearly 140x.
They collectively spent over $1B in 2024, amounting to 1 in every 13 dollars spent during the election.
Is it any wonder why so many regular people feel like they no longer have a voice?

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.
