Fine, they've made a processor, but until I have an idea of how well tested and secure it is, I'm not running anything on it. I don't mean in a "Oh China, scary!" way but just because it's an unknown brand with no track record.

Making something that works most of the time is one thing. Making something bulletproof is another.

...and they're positioning this for servers.

Understandable. Everyone is sleepy this week.

He's taken the alternative approach. Cutting their GDP by 20%.

The stockpile was built in the 50s, 60s and 70a though. The vast bulk of it is 50-70 years old. Post soviet Russia didn't have the money, and prior to that the stockpile was good.

Nah. In those photos, where there's one or two tanks left but all the others have gone... those are immovable tanks. Couldn't even get them to the service bay. Why else would that one tank have been left behind?

If you like more light in the evening, go to bed late and wake up late. If you like light in the morning, go to bed early and wake up early.

Other way around. If you want a lighter evening, your day has to slide earlier so when you sleep is closer to sunset.

Well no, because if you remove DST you'd go for the time zone where noon means the sun is straight up. That's the winter schedule, so you summer evenings get an hour shorter.

If we get rid of DST everybody needs to start work an hour earlier IMHO.

First... I'm not reading all that, but are you aware that there are 2 congressional districts up for re-election this week to replace members who accepted cabinet positions (e.g. Mike Waltz). They were +20 red districts, both of them. Now they are competitive. Trump has also withdrawn his appointee for UN ambassador because of fears they would lose her seat (also a very secure Red win previously).

It's not November anymore, and there's been a torrent of things to change people's minds in the meantime.

"Makes" by selling what exactly?

Also, thats an insane valuation based on earnings. 120x

I don't understand how this gets him free of the loans. My understanding is that he financed $14B of the Twitter purchase with loans secured against Tesla stock. That $14B worth of twitter stock was then owned by Musk and he also had a loan.

This was an all stock purchase, so xAI stock was exchanged for equivalent value of Twitter stock (keep the old name to keep it clear). Now Musk's twitter stock that he bought with the $14B will become the equivalent value of xAI stock, and he still has the loan that bought it in the first place.

Unless $14B of stock has been sold somewhere to repay the loans they still exist.

Edit: just an addendum. Personally I think stock-for-stock trades should be illegal. Force the parties to move through cash. There's too much smoke and mirrors hidden by skipping steps. In this case xAI should have had to raise the capital to purchase X. If it can do it through selling stock so be it, but it's not a wholely internal affair.

Gitea is where Forgejo forked from.

Ironically the US is more likely to drop the sanctions before Germany, where Codeberg is based.

Edit: They've gone self hosted. That makes more sense.
