Anthropic signs $10B computing deal with infrastructure startup Volta, a cloud company that is only months old. A contract that size used to go to Amazon, Microsoft or Google, because only they owned the land, power and balance sheets for frontier training. That held while money was the scarce input, but power is scarce now, and the big three cannot energize a site faster than a newcomer can. So the deal went to Volta Infra, a startup valued at $2.4B after raising about $300M from backers including Nvidia and Michael Dell's family office. The startup owns almost none of the hardware. Its capacity comes from Bitdeer, a bitcoin miner that leased out 121MW at its Norway site for 16 years in a contract worth about $4.7 B. Nvidia supplies the chips and Dell puts the systems together, which leaves the middle company holding the financing, the contracts and the customer. Paying for all of that is heavy for a firm this young, so Volta lined up a $5B program with Azora to fund the buildout. Chief executive Ricard Boada described the arrangement publicly first, a $10B partnership worth roughly $1.7B a year to his company. The risk sits on the other side, where a $2.4B company has promised $10B of service on machines it leases from a miner. Anthropic is buying schedule here rather than servers, and the price of speed now includes counterparty risk no hyperscaler contract ever carried. --- bloomberg. com/news/articles/2026-08-04/anthropic-inks-10-billion-computing-deal-with-new-cloud-startup

最近前前后后换了好几个实习生了，有一点感悟 1. 实习生一定需要赛马，同时选取两三个实习生分配工作，最后有能力干活好的留下 2. 一定要量化工作或者有一个KPI，同时需要实习生做好定期汇报。 3.有拖延迹象的实习生，在一开始就需要pass 4. 中末流985的实习生以我最近的感触来说很差劲（非以偏概全，但是是普遍现象，自驱力很差），反而接触的普通一本的实习生很有劲头。 5. 大部分实习生不如 Codex，如果不是一些工作需要人来做，我会选择多买几个Codex🤣

发现了一个Codex中快速获取上下文并节省token的技巧： 当你发现Codex会话的上下文快满了，直接开一个新会话并在对话中输入： “@「旧会话」，总结核心信息并继续任务执行”
