  • And Nvidia? Well, they were just a $300 billion dollar video game card maker 5 years ago

    That’s not entirely accurate. They may have had a $300 billion market cap but they were also a critical component of the Crypto supply chain. NVIDIA, more than basically everyone else except electricity companies, has been the primary beneficiary of two grifts in a row.

    Actually allow me to argue for a second that it’s really NVIDIA behind this bubble and not OpenAI. OpenAI might have been the flintstone that ignited the bubble but NVIDIA has been there investing in companies that turn around and give the money back to NVIDIA.






  • I dont really understand what the point of even having this position is. For people who care about decolonization it is obviously an important subject they will advocate for but if you are against it? What danger is there that it will even come to pass? It must be less likely to happen than solving global warming so why even bother arguing against it? You are getting mad at stuff that is so abstract and future facing you might as well be that cartoon with the guy making cardboard monsters.
