Quote me, people will be breaking into homes to steal RAM and sell it on facebook by the stick for highly inflated prices. RAM is basically not going to exist starting next year for at least 2 years.
Micron is shutting down its Crucial consumer RAM business in 2026 after nearly three decades, citing heavy demand from AI data centers.

The evils of the world are because of people not taking enough humanities classes. More people should be like Alex Karp, who has a bachelor's degree in philosophy, a JD, and a PhD in social theory.

#StarCitizen Moments [008/150]
Took a break from relentlessly hunting the Vanduul Tech Smugglers to pay my respects on Anthony Tanaka Remembrance Day. Found another Citizen with great taste and the same idea. We shared this fleeting moment of reverence in silence. For Tanaka.

Doing some smaller videos for #StarCitizen lore and remembered Lin Sool, the wealthiest Banu we have ever known about who got his wealth being the best fighter pilot we've ever seen. Basically flying combat missions from the age of 6.
CIG made a Banu that is basically an Ace Combat character.

This should be shared with every military officer. When the admin orders you to do war crimes, and you go through with it, they will blame YOU for it. Remember, this admin is going to end and it'll be a VERY easy political win to arrest and prosecute some scape goat from the military afterwards.
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?
LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

This applies to coding, too. My process is to "mess around" for a bit until something clicks, and it's the little details that are the grit in the oyster that becomes the pearl. In contrast, skimming pages of vomited-up/buggy boilerplate are not fertile soil for critical thinking.
Using an LLM for ideation is nonsense. When I'm writing I'm organizing my thoughts -- the mental clarity is the product, not the text. What's the point of hallucinating an approximation of that vestigial document?

The grocery store before Thanksgiving is no joke. It's every man for himself, kids flinging themselves across aisles, abuelitas climbing shelves, "alpha" males squaring off in mating displays in the baking aisle.
We went in with a mission and a list, and by god, we made it out alive.
