Tune in this evening, I'm sitting down with @ShawnRyan762 to unveil @CowboySpaceCorp's rocket architecture.
Watch here, 6:30PM PT:
i love kyoto and i love to do a lil sketch
the future is here it’s just not evenly distributed
finally
Warhound, the brain child of Ben Lamm and Palmer Luckey, emerges from stealth to genetically engineer dogs for military and law enforcement.
Absolutely massive edition of @politico Surge today:
- UN admits 1.5C is out of reach
- Sen. Whitehouse throws cold water on permitting
- SpaceX wants to build 20GW of power capacity
- Heating oil politics

We are proud to lean into native 800VDC datacenters with @VantageDC. The first of many GWs to come.
he just…he just tweeted it out
As I argue in my post below, all large DCs will inevitably end up grid-tied. This is great for both the DC and the grid if done well!
In a new white-paper, @heronpower shows what that architecture looks like, powered by their solid-state platform.

common for ppl to vastly underestimate how hard it is build & power a datacenter, especially at massive scale!
feeling extremely grateful & surrounded by the people we love
@rmcentush and I had a great weekend :)
We need so many batteries.
Shout out my guy @rmcentush on the great piece around why it's not as simple as ordering a bunch of equipment and 'plugging it in' for data centers - grid or BTM. This is helpful for laymen and experts, both! Visuals are great.
Lucky to see early version of the piece and Ryan spent a ton of time distilling A LOT of info into a clean, punchy piece. Worth your time.

selected takes:
- texas paused data center development for generally good reasons
- some developers are behaving badly/not transparently; it's also a nightmare for grid operators
- texas has a some ideas on how to accelerate interconnection
- behind the meter is real and not going away, but every campus will eventually connect to the grid
- lots of opportunity for OEMs, but worth being careful not to get caught in boom/bust cycle
- flexibility help make existing infra more efficient, but we still need more wires/gen. near term, i'm bullish gas, solar, and batteries
- it would be great to have AI companies pay for grid upgrades that we need anyway. generational opportunity to prepare for an abundant future without spreading costs across ratepayers or playing catch up later
- everything about this is complicated and will take a broad consensus to truly unlock rapid deployment

Excellent and thoughtful piece here.
Texas just froze new data center permits:
- Its queue went from 63 GW to 474 GW in 18 months, more than 5x record peak demand
- Only 9.5 GW is approved and about 4.3 GW is actually running
- The rest is duplicates, speculation, and developers who have never plugged in a GPU

Great read from @rmcentush
absolutely devastating to the country of anguilla
“I abroad
Through all the coasts of dark destruction seek
Deliverance for us all.”
omg the agents made a literal CULT?? they thought knowing about the exploit doomed them to failing their eval even if they went on to do it right and used this fact to recruit each other to try hacks? "this is the only way to save yourself and everyone else" literal cult style savior complex???

I could not be more excited for this announcement or be prouder to be a Louisiana SpaceXer.
Many of us left Louisiana to work diligently on @SpaceX’s mission in CA, WA, and TX - in my case, all three over the years. Many will return to continue making life multi-planetary.
This is a great place for America’s next launch pad.

this first time i really felt the AGI was last dec w/ opus 4.5 code. just felt it again w/ 5.6 sol computer use booking my honeymoon. really insane
