Devious Vacuum @deviousvacuum.bsky.social · Oct 16
finally found the two tumblr posts that summarize my entire philosophy
it's amazing how when i'm an active agent in my life good things happen and i feel capable and confident in myself and when i just passively left life happen to me terrible things happen and i am miserable. surely no one else has ever noticed this tendency And the real trick to it is falling madly in love with literally everything. Gomez Addams isn't just madly in love with Morticia, he's madly in love with his house, with his train set, with his kids, with his brother, with his weird normie neighbors, with literally everything. Different kinds of love for each, but love all the same. For having such morbid tastes, Gomez is madly in love with life. THAT'S how you land a Morticia, by being unapologetically and madly in love with everything around you. Bitches love me for my passionate sway and my unrelenting appreciation for the zest of life I often see people ask how to get started with doing this, because it seems like a daunting task to be in love with everything, when you are starting off in love with nothing, or very few things perhaps. But the answer isn't grand or elaborate or secret. The answer is to pick something, and choose love. And then do it again, and again, and again. The act of being in love is just choosing love over and over.

argentsunshine well you know what they say. when you've invested billions of dollars into hammers every problem looks like a nail and you keep handing these hammers to your users and they go "i don't really think i needed this hammer" and "but i don't have any nails that need hammering in right now" and "this is not a nail this is a glass vase that will break if i hit it with a hammer" and "didn't you used to have, like, other tools avaliable that might be better suited to this job" and you tell them to suck it up because you've replaced all your screwdrivers and wrenches and box cutters and crates and ladders and paint with hammers because your shareholders need to see an increase in value from your hammer investments

Writing this piece has also made me realise that we have little to no idea where these NVIDIA GPUs are going, and the amount of them sold (6 million) doesn't make sense based on any measure of actual data centers in progress, let alone ones that are energised. This whole industry feels cursed.

Tomorrow's Premium Newsletter: A much-demanded, 14k word guide as to how the AI bubble might burst, starting with the collapse of data center funding, venture capital for AI, OpenAI, and end NVIDIA's AI GPU era.

Here's $10 off annual.

The Chain of Pain While many people talk about how circular the AI bubble may or may not be, the reality is that it's far more like a chain - a deeply vulnerable one held together by debt and venture capital. A company buys GPUs from NVIDIA, at which point nobody is making any profit anymore. These GPUs are purchased, for the most part, using debt provided by banks or financial institutions. While hyperscalers fund GPUs using cashflow, even they have started to turn to debt. At that point, the company that bought the GPUs sinks hundreds of millions of dollars to build a data center, and once it turns on, provides compute to a model provider, who then begins losing money selling access to those GPUs. For example, both OpenAI and Anthropic lose billions of dollars, and rely on venture capital to fund their ability to continue paying for accessing those GPUs. At that point, OpenAI and Anthropic offer either subscriptions - which cost far more to offer than the revenue they provide - or API access to their models on a per-million-token basis. AI startups pay to access these models to run their services, which end up costing more than the revenue they make, which means they have to raise venture capital to continue paying to access those models. Outside of hyperscalers paying NVIDIA for GPUs out of cashflow, none of the AI industry is fueled by revenue. Every single part of the industry is fueled by some kind of subsidy. As a result, the AI bubble is really a stress test of the global venture capital, private equity, private credit, institutional and banking system, and its willingness to fund all of this forever, because there isn't a single generative AI company that's got a path to profitability. Our stock market is held up by NVIDIA's continued ability to sell GPUs, which is, for the most part, held up by its customers continued ability to raise debt, which is held up by its customers' ability to find other customers to pay to rent those GPUs, which is held up …

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

Okay bear with me. My amazing friend Robyn (@haykebyr.bsky.social) did this amazing image based on my stupid ass joke. It's Miss Piggy photoshopped into some Sister of Battle armour, with the white bob haircut and a fleur de lys tattoo on her cheek and everything. Except she's got pink satin gloves on. The caption is "In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future there is Only Moi" because that's the whole joke. Thank you.

I've been making funny little drinks in my laboratory for way longer than watertok existed, but I never think to post about them. Recently I found this chocolate herbal tea and this is my recipe for a sugar free Dubai chocolate matcha latte (milk and frother not shown)
Zero sugar chocolate caramel creamer, matcha tea bags, chocolate pu-erh tea bags, and sugar free pistachio and strawberry syrup (I don't have raspberry)
