Tonight, 47 Senators supported my resolution to get accountability for the 9 Americans killed on the West Bank & for Palestinians who face injustices daily. That's more support than we've ever had in this fight. Republicans blocked us, but we won't stop until we get justice.

Full Retatrutide phase 3 obesity data published today. It's gonna take a minute to fill dissect this. The appendix alone has 70 pages of data. Long story short we created a drug that's almost too good. Huge chunks of people stopped or reduced doses from excess weight reductions.

Humans in the west work between 1/2 and 2/3rds the number of hours worked in 1870. The ‘winning’ of the 8 hour work day wasn’t until 1938 in the USA, but there’s no correlate drop off. Instead, it’s the congealment of numerous technological and social changes over time.

"What if the only way you could get home at night would be to ask the Nvidia GPU in your self-driving car" is a completely self-consistent good idea in Jensen's mind, as it will increase the TAM for Nvidia GPUs. He simply didn't have any other considerations than that when he said it.

Jensen is probably the most Jobs-like CEO left in the industry, in that he has a completely monomaniacal focus on producing and selling more GPUs no matter what. Things which are not relevant to that goal, such as knowing where you live, are discarded to fit more GPU sales ideas in his brain.

But partly as a consequence of the administration’s hasty approach, all that gold — hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth — [highlight] sits untouched in warehouses, [/highlight] according to three people with knowledge of the shipments. Refiners would need to guarantee, under international rules, that the gold has not funded gangs, environmental destruction or corruption.
