Hello from the Pacific Northwest during a major rain event, distinguished by a more or less complete absence of any actual freaking light or color. So here’s something I snapped a couple days ago, by way of eye therapy.

Ed Zitron offers 15K words on whether Nvidia is like Enron (or several other famous fraudsters) or not. It's amusing and erudite and most people just won't have time to plow through it. Which is a pity, because 80% of the way through there’s a section called:
“Is NVIDIA Shipping Millions Of GPUs And Putting Them In Warehouses? Where Are The 6 Million Shipped Blackwell GPUs?”
His findings are absolutely shocking. Tl;dr: That headline just above.
1/2 In which I cover a couple of the weird/scary aspects of the #genAI bubble and try to get a feel what the post-bubble hangover will feel like. Tl;dr: Not like the dot-com bust.
for the first time. A small number of years ago I would have called the idea ridiculous. Now I think that, if you got the right people together, it could have a good outcome.
I think this is absolutely the right approach. I think that there's a nice business opportunity in Mastodon-Instances-as-a-Service (MIaaS?), where by “nice” I mean “you can make a nice living” but totally not “Venture capitalists would invest in it and insist on hypergrowth at all costs.”
