Folks reposting that other guys clickbait about nvidia, the premise might not be wrong, but Ed will have actual coverage.
A few people have sent me this piece. It is riddled with outright lies, stuff about Arrow Electronics and NVIDIA (Arrow never mentions NVDA in any earnings docs and has said nothing about stock) and outright falsehoods about Oracle. This is very likely AI generated, written to panic people.

I remember reading some biography of a NI politician and they mentioned that Ian Paisley could turn off and on his roaring demagoguery and that he was quite personable one on one. It was all a performance which if anything makes it much worse
Guys it's ok. He only called for violence against gays and trans people and declared the Civil Rights Act a mistake for the money and power.

I get why everyone is making this rational argument, for the same reasons they did about Obama’s birth announcement, but learn the lesson: do not indulge the big lie. “Everyone saying the signature’s fake is doing so because they want to help Trump cover up his child abuse.” Stick to that story.
If Trump’s signature on the Epstein drawing is fake, I guess “they” planned this back in 2003, when Trump was Democrat, and also placed other fake signatures in private letters from Trump to match the fake Epstein signature? This is believable to some people?

It cost me €8 to get from the airport to my hotel in Amsterdam, which isn’t in the city center. In less time than an uber and much cheaper. We spent less time waiting for trains/transfers (10 minutes in total) than it would have taken for the first driver to pick us up.
Will the absence of robotaxis in Europe mark the moment its citizens notice how far their continent has fallen behind?

I think the people outside NYC who are maddest about Mamdani are the brain wormed folks who treat politics like sports
Because that would account for this being a legitimately devastating loss for them which also does not affect their lives in any way

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

My random WWDC25 / iOS26 feature request: Actual dual sim features like setting "silence unknown callers" on a per sim basis instead of globally. The phone knows which line it is calling from, let me select to ignore my US calls. (+ a 'wifi calling only' option to force simB to only use simA data)

I can’t believe I found this in a bookstore here in Wales. Note the punched hole in the cover, I assume this was meant to be a refunded book that was sold anyway.
