SoftBank, once best known for having lots of money, is seeking a $5b margin loan (on ARM shares!) to invest in OpenAI

A generational all-in bet on AI infrastructure and we are nearing the finance equivalent of turning over couch cushions to find cash to pay for it

DARK FROG HAS ENTERED THE CHAT #PDX

The Portland frogs are multiplying. I’m watching the livestream at katu.com/watch
Three green froggies and a skeleton frog! These are inflatable costumes and some of the frogs have little capes. They’re protesting on the other side of the street from ICE.

I have considered so many simulations while going to the bathroom that I will never make, but the thought is there

It should strike people that the stock market isn’t crashing despite the shutdown. Like sub-prime mortgages, it has yet again totally detached itself from economic reality while they speculate on how many workers they can fire to replace with AI. It is helping a failing economic strategy save face.

I got a day of clemency on this today but I still have $400 I absolutely must raise by tomorrow morning before I have to leave for work. Any bit helps, especially just sharing this when you see it to get it in front of more eyeballs. I just don’t want to lose my roof this week.

I sincerely thought I wouldn’t need to do this this week, but something fell through and now I need to raise $800 by Thursday to pay for our room and to get to and from work til next payday. If you’re able to spare anything, even a share, it would be tremendous.

Anything helps!

essentially no one looks worse in all this than Biden, followed closely by the tiresome, morally bankrupt blue wave scolds who shouted at all of us about how Biden couldn’t do anything

This week has confirmed my suspicion that Biden’s Middle East policies will look worse, and will be even more embarrassing for Democrats, with the passage of time.

All this only happened because we let one guy control the military. True democracy would be every citizen having one soldier
