My favorite part is when he tells them don’t let people tell you the future is decided and then proceeds to tell them the future has already been decide and AI is a big part of it.

I am SO glad he's taking that Reagan quote on directly. One of the more harmful lines and philosophies in US politics. Government is us. It is what we the people choose to do with our collective resources. It can be a force for good if we want it to be.

Fun fact: Listening to a real rich person talk for less than a minute increases the average person's agreement with the statement "Eat the rich!" five-fold.

I am severely in love with how the trump/musk manly-man fans are trying this “people aren’t used to seeing how masculine men argue” thing. yes bros that’s right. being a messy bitch online, that’s real alpha behavior. if Achilles were alive today he’d be in Hector’s mentions on social fucking media

If you stop looking at the Robovan pictures and just repeat “A bus, but it can only carry 20 passengers” over and over again, eventually you start to understand the intellectual bankruptcy of not just Musk but most of Silicon Valley.

More of this please.

Rest in peace, Nick Russo, you will be dearly missed. I grabbed a copy of his site in case his family does not keep it running, as it's a wealth of knowledge. drive.google.com/file/d/1jDVJ... What a tragedy for Nick's Family and the networking community.

#OnThisDay, 19 Apr 1967, Katherine Switzer becomes the first woman to complete the Boston Marathon as a registered runner, despite the organiser physically trying to stop her. She ran it again in 2017, 50 years later. #WomenInHistory #OTD #History #AmericanHistory
Katherine Switzer running along a road in a grey tracksuit. She is a white woman with dark hair. There are several other men running alongside her, also in running gear. They are protecting her from a man in a blazer who is attempting to rip off the number pinned to her back.

Interesting routing algorithms in use on broadcom's fabric. Most of these seem to be in-line/in the data path (in contrast to a central controller making decisions) but unfortunately aren't quite interoperable or standards-based (yet, at least, that might be in the works) #NFD32

Broadcom talking about Linear Pluggable Optics (LPOs) which remove the DSP and have tuned drivers that allow you to use much less power (and have lower latency). I think that this comes at the cost of reach, but in a DC/HPC application, that doesn't matter as much. #NFD32
