Reuters got some of the IPO docs. Anthropic is a total dog of a company. Spent $12.6bn to make $4.6bn in revenue in 2025, $7.33bn of which was compute costs. Operating loss of $8bn. Losses getting worse year over year. Amazing stuff www.reuters.com/business/fin...

Summary
Companies
• Anthropic IPO could value the company at more than $2
trillion
• Anthropic lost $42 billion in 2025
• Al lab spent $7.33 billion on compute and infrastructure last year
• Operating loss widened to $8.06 billion in 2025 from $2.98 billion in 2024
• Execs, industry analysts have expressed concerns over harms of Al tech
Sept 28 (Reuters) - Anthropic is making a massive bet that Al will transform the global economy more profoundly than industrialization, electricity and the internet, according to its IPO prospectus seen by Reuters.
But the cost to get there will be staggering. Anthropic reported a net loss of $42 billion in 2025, and plans to spend $518 billion on cloud, computing and infrastructure obligations in coming year, according to the
prospectus.

There’s something to be said for how most of the political spectrum can unite around hounding some lesbians over niche drama in their spaces but huge segments of society are silent about pervasive campus rape impacting a huge population of primarily youngwomen

A computer can never be horny, therefore a computer cannot make art.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

One of the Cornell students accused of gang rape, Scott Kretzschmar, denies it and says through his attorney that they are going to “confront” the survivor through the court system. I can already tell you that means victim-blaming, DARVO, and smears. She is going to need a lot more of our support.

I find it infuriating that nations who for decades have profited off the exploitation of immigrant labour, who have indeed engineered the conditions for that exploitation through making the countries of origin nigh unliveable, now dare to turn around and call migrants a drain.

What a surprise, the organizers of the covid cautious dyke bar hated the article, rejected its framing, and is defending their covid cautious patrons and performers. Anyone who joined in on the viral harassment campaign started by Jesse Singal wanna say oops or…? recorder.com/2026/09/24/g...

Current and former owners of Last Ditch could not be reached by phone, email or social media. However, Last Ditch did share on Instagram that the Globe story allegedly misconstrued statements from Noire, and urged community members to stop harassing Noire.
"It is neither productive, progressive, nor valiant to attack a Black patron. He has been a collaborator and performer of Last Ditch for a while, and he deserves to speak his mind about accountability and repair from the bar," the Last Ditch statement reads. "There are so many misconceptions due to the disorganization of the Globe article. He did not call for the bar to be firebombed. Further, he did not disparage the owner for being homeless.
"As a result of this abysmal journalism, he has been getting additional threats, slurs, harassment, and is being reported to the police over something he did not do," Last Ditch continued. "This is not supporting us at Last Ditch, and it is, at its core, anti-Blackness hysteria."

Might have done a bit of a rant at my MP. It's quite a nice feeling actually. Give it a go.

It has been promoted and pushed and egged and funded and nurtured by social media, where the racism, the hate. the disdain for our country's values is open and constant - and which remains unregulated to the cost of us all; and by the British media, also entirely unregulated (I suppose we could crowd fund some dentures for Ofcom but I remain unconvinced that it would know what to do with them), including those parts of it which are most trusted by the British public (link to BBC article below, where the thugs are referred to as if they are ordinary protesters, and a life-threatening criminal act in the channel aqainst RNLI staff is relegated to a brief mention in paragraph 15).

We used to hear "both sides" from the news. and even then, that was an absurd position, where only one side ever provided facts, and the other only ever provided feelings. We don't hear that any more. Now we only hear one side. it is the racist. hateful side. and it is framed, always, as "legitimate concerns".

They are not legitimate. We saw no village-wide protest from Piddington, when they had 2,600 mostly white young men in those barracks, and endured crimes, including rape, associated with those men. But 1200 brown men? Suddenly that's "legitimate concerns". It isn't. It's racism.

We cannot predicate the human rights of a person upon the strong feelings of a group that hates them.

That is not how human rights work ir this country, or it didn't used to be. We have done precisely this to trans people in this country - handed their harmless lives directly to the tiny, well- connected, well-funded group that hates them most. We are now normalising racism in precisely the same way. This is going to destroy our society.

What we need from the government urgently is:-
• Press regulation, sharp-eared enough to identify a dogwhistle and bold enough to call it what it is: with the good of our inclusive society at it's core and meaningful punishments
• Social media regulation: frankly X should be shut down. and the embarrassing fact that we don't want to annoy the chief nazi because he owns Starlink needs to be faced, because X's continued influence or our society must end. Facebook isn't much better: regulate them or end them.

• We need clear, unequivocal statements from our PM. and from our MPs, about the fact that this is racism and terrorism. It is not "legitimate concerns".
• We need these Blackshirts and their leaders proscribed as terrorists, and sentenced accordingly
• And we need a concerted public information campaign to offset the colossal, constant untruths the press and social media have propagated: our society has hardly any crime. Refugees aren't disproportionately criminal. And tell people what benefits refugees get because it's shockingly low and people believe utter nonsense they read on Facebook. Educate people! We used to have incredibly effective public information films on prime time TV - I'm old enough to remember when drink driving went from "a bit of a laugh, ho ho ho evervone does it," to "nobody does that now" virtually overniqht, because of such a campaign.

I realise government is hard, and that our current qovernment is tasked with undoing 20 years of utter incompetence. But that must start from the basis of British values. "Respect and dignity" isn't an idea. It's an action, taken every day, it's the courage to stand up against hate, every day, and to call it what it is and to say the uncomfortable thing and sometimes, yes, the unpopular thing.

I hope that our government has this courage. I have not seen it yet,
Yours faithfully,
