I live in a neighborhood of older retired folks and I get this vibe from them as well when walking my younger kids. Their faces light up with joy. Just another season in life I suppose. Let's enjoy it while we can.

I can honestly say, I think there was a chemical change in my brain or a biological equivalent when my kids were born. That is to say, something more primal than the "love" you can get from a spouse/SO; you feel it in your bones, deep down, always on and changed forever.

This is really it. The biggest advantages of being remote are only unlocked with full remote.

Very similar experience. Bought a v8 GMC for RVing and while turbo v6s can handle similar payloads, the turbos themselves break very often. The v8 sound and feel is a nice extra benefit.

I don't have all the numbers but as someone who lives in VA and has had their power bill _double_ over the last year, I'd be hard-pressed to think DCs are commonly paying their fair share when tariffs like this need to be passed: https://virginiamercury.com/2026/08/05/scc-orders-dominion-t...

Using AI as leverage for labor is myopic. The businesses that thrive will be the ones that use it to automate and allow its employees to go deeper and innovate. The fish can rot from the head or not.

I think this ignores the potential impact of local AI across 2+B devices that no longer need SOTA models for the majority of use-cases. What does that do to datacenter demand?

My take is why not both? It’s good cover to use something that’s eventually going to happen and their name will be associated with the first.

Nonsense it was irresponsible. These are all steps threat researchers use to isolate and test real malware whose behaviour is essentially the same in this case for AI

Alignment is a mitigation and a poor one. The risk is non- determinism.

I read it as _now_ they have access to the models but not during the intrusion

It was either worth it or it wasn’t. They wouldn’t have agreed otherwise. This is trying to save face while having 85% margins. Apple is just defending its margin as well. They’re all playing the same game.
