The plan here seems to be to generate passive income by building a warehouse full of GPUs that are powered, in part, by 276 diesel generators. What do we know about GPUs? They have finite lifespans. What do we know about diesel? The price is rising. How is it funded? Venture capital.

My pet peeve is lavishly costumed and set up historical dramas, where every detail is perfect, EXCEPT... the character use idioms, speaking styles that are only 5-20 years old

Oh thank god Jackson Lamb is shoving something into his mouth disgustingly and chewing like a big fucking pig every scene of slow horses otherwise I’d never know he was foul

2024 election marked the end of a cycle of de-democratization by Modi's BJP. India’s opposition is back as a force to be reckoned with. Not just a reinvigorated party system but the creativity of social movements from below. Must read by the great political scientist Christoph Jaffrelot
