Chinese AI chip exports are set to hit the world at scale in just a couple years.
@RyanFedasiuk and I have worked on a report on Chinese chip production for the next few years and why chip exports and compute self sufficiency are closer than assumed

Seven Havens proves itself as a worthy successor to Last Airbender and Legend of Korra with a powerful, emotional, and thrilling final quartet of episodes.
Our full review: bit.ly/4iv8EUA
ALT Seven Havens ends its first season going for the heart with a powerful quartet of episodes which go very, very dark and answer some big questions while raising others. It’s safe to say after 13 episodes, Seven Havens is a worthy successor to both The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra. Bring on Book 2. Score: 9
Not without more satellites in orbit can actual risky strategic moves be taken

The WSJ lays out what keeping Gulf oil flowing actually involves:
-50,000 US troops, 20 Navy ships, two carriers across the region.
-$2–3 Billion USD/month or 67-100 Million USD/day above normal military spending
-Aircraft, warships and crews under mounting strain.
-Some US officials see the situation as untenable without more international help. Coalition efforts have failed.

The most fundamental reason why China cannot disavow Mao, despite the many many horrors under Maoist rule, is because he is the founding father of the modern Chinese state. All nations are founded on origin stories that mix history with myth; disavowing the founder can feel like disavowing the nation itself. But for those who think Mao was simply a well-intentioned leader with misguided policies or bad advisors, I would invite you to read Ning Zhang's work on Mao's campaign against counterrevolutionaries. The sheer indifference to loss of human life and suffering was an outlier even for the time.
If this was a scheme to not engage with Star Wars in the future, then great, mission accomplished
NEW: Why did EA shut down BioWare? Twitter thinks the studio failed because it was too woke. BlueSky thinks Saudi Arabia killed the studio for being too gay.
The real reason? Star Wars bloomberg.com/news/newslette…
I don't think y'all understand the meaning of the word maximum
We’re renaming our Max plans:
Max 5x → Max
Max 20x → Ultra
Max is still $100/month, and Ultra is still $200. If you’re a subscriber, there’s nothing you need to do.
We’re also removing the 5-hour limit for verified Ultra accounts, starting today with most existing subscribers. Newer accounts keep a temporary limit until they’re verified, which helps us prevent fraud and abuse. You'll get an email when it's removed.
Weekly limits remain unchanged. View our plans here: claude.com/pricing

Wait till Bay Area AGI people start reading The Life of Milarepa
I'd love to watch a Japanese historical drama about the Soga vs Mononobe-Nakatomi conflict leading to the Taika Reforms.
Parallels to the Meiji period, religious conflict, clan politics.
It's one period of history I'd love to be a fly on the wall for
Investing into a massive diamond trading complex just as synthetic diamonds start crashing the world market is the most apt metaphor for a traditional mindset
Three years ago, PM Modi inaugurated the 3,200-crore Surat Diamond Bourse, calling it “the best diamond in the world” and an example of “Modi’s guarantee” for Surat.
Today, the “world’s biggest office space in a single project” is a largely empty shell.

Succinctly captures decades long Indian thinking towards technology products.
Spending on own R&D is seen as “useless expenditure when one can leverage someone else’s matured tech and settled mfg line” from which one pays after the amortized cost.
The shipyards need orders but by the time these orders will be filled, they will be facing fleets of UUVs and even underwater sustainment platforms getting deployed.
One wonders what the state of Indian UUV programs are

Patrick Stewart was, like many of the greatest British artists of the 20th Century, a working class boy who became a world-class artist thanks to a public arts education made possible by Post War social democracy. He never forgot it.
Golf is one of the worst legacies the British left in India. The day each remaining ground is seized and turned into a datacenter so the water can be used productively is the day India will be a high income country

As an American, I’m pained to say this, but the United States has a huge credibility problem. Given the fate of the JCPOA and the fact it was attacked twice during negotiations, Iran has to worry that, if it makes concessions, the United States will attack it anyway. (1/n)
