The AI bubble RAM crisis is caused for non-existent problems by non-existent money for a non-existent infrastructure to meet non-existent demand to make non-existent business and will utterly destroy real business based on real demand and real infrastructure built with real money for real problems.

I don't hate technology. I don't like scams, fraudsters, grifters, the harm to the environment, the gross and unethical behavior, the privacy violations, humans losing their jobs so sleazebag billionaires get even richer. And that's basically all what Big Tech and especially AI is now.

And remember this: systems built on distributed power do not surrender easily. They absorb. They resist. And eventually… They prevail. In other words, bring it the f*ck on. America isn’t letting this happen on our watch.

This is completely correct other than the infrastructure not existing. I think people need to realize WHY this is happening is because, for example, NVIDIA sells GB200 NVL72s (racks of 72 GPUs) with *17TB of RAM* and likely over 500TB of storage.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Voting against someone because they don’t fit your ideal version of a candidate in hopes of the country suffering enough to produce the perfect candidate is just like trickle down economics, history proves it doesn’t work… nobody is perfect and incremental progress gets taken away under republicans
