Idk if this is bullish or bearish for Nvidia. But it seems like Sam Altman is really a talented salesman. www.wsj.com/tech/nvidia-...

I’m not a macro expert. What the hell is going on here? 2 points?? What is the intention here?

This is pretty funny. Tesla was going to launch “robotaxis” in the Bay Area using limousine permits. A driver would basically be using driver assist features and drive you around. Feels very 2014 Uber scrappiness. But this company is worth $1 trillion! www.reuters.com/business/aut...

The gold and platinum Trump visas just dropped and it’s basically an extension of the Trump tower condo brand.

Trump selling out America tax revenues to oligarchs on the cheap, while making life hard for tech & engineers $100k for H-1B visas $1m for US residency $2m for US residency without US taxes* (provides they don't stay >270 days p.a.) bloomberg.com/news/article...

People have probably said this already but it seems that Ramaswamy wasn’t actually fired from DOGE but rather saw what a shitshow Elon was and got out just in time to preserve his own brand. www.semafor.com/article/09/1...

Seriously though.. how did we end up in the dumbest of times?

Another day of Trump getting easily outmaneuvered by China.

@techmeme.com is now 20 years old. I've used it for a long time. Its one of those old-school websites that has remained very useful and basically never changes:

All these ideas are always based on a single conversation where Trump is like “whoa bro, so true, I’ll make it a law..” like 15 minutes of thought goes into these.

The worst few days of social media I can remember in a very long time

“Department of War” once again humiliates all the suckers who thought Trump was anti-war. Will be interesting to see how they spin this.

ICE is about to deport Sinner and Alcarez for working on their visitor visas.

Korea had to negotiate the release of LG employees (who were on business visas, mind you) and fly them back on a chartered jet. And now have suspended all employee trips to the US. No more battery factories! Brilliant stuff. koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/2025-09...

As an American, when I meet a European living in the US long-term, I think “Really? Really.. why??”

This is generally absurd and embarrassing. But the fact that Chamath is there is just unreal. The guy who built some.. shitty financial engineering and a failed VC firm?He He is one of the great grifters of our day. www.wsj.com/politics/tru...

I hate to say it, but this is a lot cooler than the dumb hot mic moments US politicians are having these days.

They can’t all be trillion dollar companies, can they? I have to say I’m a bit skeptical about this one 😅

It's August folks. Just emailed someone -got an OOO message -said to email their colleague for urgent matters. That email also had an OOO -said email a 3rd person for urgent matters. That OOO said to email the original person for urgent matters. I might be working too many hours, this has me dying 😂

One of the biggest foreign policy self-owns so far. No strategy, no plan.

Rebranding taxes as a business-style revenue source is impressive. But it does require a lot of people being really stupid.

Just discovered this from a few months to. A very informed and measured conversation about the current state of LLMs/AI. I really appreciate Yann LeCun as he is neither an AI marketer or a pure AI hater. youtu.be/qvNCVYkHKfg?...

One thing I’ve noticed over the years: there’s a surprising number of people who only know how to talk about themselves in casual professional conversation. It’s often fairly boring content. They have no curiosity about others. It’s shocking that these people become as successful as they do.

Maybe Trump will get a Nobel for this? If you know the region, you know making peace between India and China is an incredible achievement.

The depressing thing is that most people don’t see how this all comes from a fascist instinct. Feeding on fear with no regard for solving actual problems.

“Trump took just a few days to upend more than a decade of careful US diplomacy courting India as a regional counterweight against China” www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

One of the absolute funniest AI storylines - they simple cannot figure how to stop Grok from regurgitating facts

These people can only conceive of win-lose situations, and so they forgo win-win arrangements in favor of lose-lose arrangements

All these people seem coordinated in not understanding the purpose of Fed rates. It’s almost like they have to say something purposefully stupid to break through their target audience. I don’t understand why else this would happen.

I woke up to this news today and I gotta be honest, it shocked me once again. There is no bottom.

Meanwhile on X, the tech right is dying to use the n word so much that they post absolute gibberish.

This is how people get their news in 2025

This isn’t surprising at all but it still hurts my brain a bit to think about www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I had a very leftist friend tell me years ago that the only reason the GOP did so well in general was because democrats were so weak and incompetent. Every time I hear Chuck Schumer talk, I think about how she seems to be completely correct.

Looking at my feed and it seems like people are posting here a lot less. Is that anyone else’s experience? I’m a bit concerned for Bluesky atm

I cannot believe this is real. Are they really going to get her out of prison to make MAGA happy? The level of stupidity here is too much..

I sadly watched like 30 minutes of the Hunter Biden interview. Went from “wow this guy is kinda chill, he has been through a lot of tough times..” to “Oh wait he is sort of manic.. wait is he totally crazy? Is he smoking crack now??”

This is where we are at in the market cycle

Trump says 19% tariffs will go into effect on goods from the Philippines, another trade “deal” that leaves us orders of magnitude worse off than before Trump took office

We really got gifted the most darkly hilarious scenario. I can’t tell what the base is thinking right now but the entire Republican Party has gone into damage control to protect Trump on this. Just so cringe.

Reflecting on how insane it is - the public figure most implicated with being involved w/ Epstein (who is more linked??) tricked his followers into believing he was going to reveal the truth about Epstein. A charismatic psychopath having intense control of his followers. Really wild. 🤯

This is an interesting health discovery.

1) Trump puts tariffs on China 2) China retaliates by blocking rare earths 3) Trump does deal to resume rare earths by restarting advanced chips to China. Clearly a net concession! This admin doesnt get nearly enough credit for being so incredibly bad at their jobs www.reuters.com/technology/n...

It seems to be happening.

And here we are. Mr Nobel Peace prize has changed his tune. Of course.. of course..

This will be interesting. I feel like this might not go well for him. But honestly I’ve always been confused by NYC politics even after spending a good portion of my life there.

The motto of the Trump regime truly is «weakness masquerading as strength.»

I am launching a REIT for podcast studios. Even in an already frothy market we are seeing major upside.
