Sounds like a cult to me: "In an interview on CNBC, Alex Karp, Palantir’s chief executive, criticised Burry and other short-sellers for “trying to call the AI revolution into question”."

Thanks. I very quickly get irritated at train-of-thought-derailing user interface peculiarities.

This absolutely insane gold price development makes me very worried that the economy is about to collapse. People are dumping their investments into a safe haven with a massive trade volume, and 100% increase in the last four years, with 20% just in the last […]

Glen and I have worked on a new version of our very handy flow-through capillary holders, useful for synchrotron and lab experiments.

On holidays, but still screwing around with electronics, trying to clean up the mess from the previous owners. This time, I’m replacing the old shunt (that stainless steel plate) with a new 500A Victron one. Went completely overboard on the bus bar design but […]

At work, I’m in charge of this beast. It’s been heavily transformed over the years, as have I. We work better now though.
