You need to “get it” because it’s really important. We’re all in here arguing about PE ratios of tech companies reaching 100x. Is that too much? Who knows. For the best tech compan…

The number of companies that wish they were a SW company rather than a HW company is very long, and despite all their efforts once they get to a certain size the die is cast.

No. First off, it’s a HW/SW solution and things like CUDA/NCCL/etc make a HUGE difference. Second, the token/watt ratio of every other option is nearly an order of magnitude differ…

THIS. As much as I wish I put all my money into NVDA when I bought it, I’m happy to have a lot of diversity in high tech IT. The daily swings are not nearly as bad and aim not biti…

Insanely high PE? On earnings day? Isn’t today the day that it adjusts for this new amount? I still don’t find the forward PE to be that bad for the best tech company in the world …

A16Z is a totally f-cktified VC. They made so much money with the pump and dump blockchain startups that they have completely lost their way. Now you have complete moron GP/MD leve…

Is he going to label Sesame Street as a militant gang next?

Not news. Monster Energy has been suing every single company using the word Monster in their title. This has been happening for years. For every company you hear about them suing, …

“ AWS has a much worse uptime than my homeserver.” I find this extremely hard to believe.

Another day, another indication that Meta is an awful company from top to bottom, ruled by a socially awkward buffoon from his private island. I wonder what is in store for tomorro…

That’s not the problem. The problem is that companies forbid their employees from using it if they can’t pay for it.

Is it even possible that there will be future investors?

It’s a Chinese company, they don’t care about OSS licenses.

This is what a socially awkward billionaire who lives on his own island thinks is socializing. Not surprising at all.

There is really no one in charge over there. They haven’t had an actual CEO since Sandberg left. Mark thinks he can run the business from his private island, there are major proble…

Makes sense, they haven’t had a CEO for a while now. When was the last time Zuck went into the office? 6 months?
