Stream/Company PSA:🚨 HEADS UP!🚨
For the coming month, you will not wanna miss a single stream; at the same time, they might be cancelled/moved at any time for any reason.
Just met with @ThomasFontaine1, we are in agreement, and things will accelerate fast now.
5 commissions and 4 different governments later this will have turned into an increase in 25,000 civil servant jobs and it'll have cost 3.5 billion euros instead.
The Dutch government aims to cut 25,000 civil servant jobs in an AI-led efficiency drive targeting annual savings of €3.5 billion bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
100% i'd do this for a generous severance package, then use that to set up my own side hussle that can run passively while i wait for these idiots to rehire me at 50% higher salary when all this blows up in their face and they want me to sort through a mountain of tech debt.
$MSFT - MICROSOFT OFFERS BUYOUTS TO 60,000 WORKERS AMID AI SPENDING BOOM
Microsoft is offering voluntary buyouts to approximately 60,000 employees as it restructures its workforce and redirects spending toward AI.
Key details:
🔸 60,000 workers eligible across the US, Canada, India, and UK.
🔸 223,000 employees globally as of June.
🔸 Data center teams are among those excluded from the offer.
🔸 Eligible employees will receive severance-style benefits.
The key takeaway: Microsoft is tightening labor costs while protecting critical AI infrastructure investments, highlighting how AI spending is reshaping Big Tech employment.
So they're selling $10 pizzas for $2.02.
For future Sillicon Valley IPO's i suggest the pizza scale, or loss divided by revenue, to see exactly how foolish they're being this time.
ANTHROPIC FILES FOR NASDAQ IPO, REVEALS $80.7 BILLION LOSS
Anthropic has filed for a Nasdaq IPO under the proposed ticker $ANT, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley leading the offering.
First-half 2026 revenue surged to $16.3B from $1.2B a year earlier, but the company reported a staggering $80.7B net loss.
Ah right. Random realization:
The reason the house price index is going up but median house prices are going down in the US is specifically because it's median. Cuts the bottom 10-20% and the top 10-20%.
Top's obvious but the bottom is doing well because the middle class isn't.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.
Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. personally met with Vučić, while Jared Kushner pursued a major luxury real estate project with his government.
Now, after nearly two years of massive student-led protests against corruption and authoritarianism, Vučić's ruling party has been defeated at the ballot box.
The student-backed movement is projected to win a parliamentary majority, ending more than a decade of dominance by Vučić's party.
Lmao random shots fired.
Dems better win and impeach him or the next two years are going to be a level of wild that the US isn't ready for.
Stream starting: Game stream! Lets see if i can get more into Valheim.

Lmao they didn't airgap it.
How can a DNS misconfiguration be exploited to get out of an "offline world" if the cable's disconnected?
This is amateur hour. It's not that they didn't think of airgapping it, it's that they thought and still think in their hubris it's not needed.
Over the past several months, we have substantially hardened the security of our research training environment. We’ve removed live internet access for all frontier models during training and built an offline world for them to use instead—a cached version of the web where they can still learn to browse, search, and use applications.
On September 20, after a model exploited a DNS misconfiguration to find a way outside of this offline world, we paused frontier training to strengthen containment further. We assembled teams of agents, powered by our most cyber-capable models, and tasked them with finding weaknesses in our research environments.
While they found no route to the internet they could easily exploit while concealing their activity from our monitors, they did find zero-day vulnerabilities, virtual machine escapes, and hardware side-channels for communication between agents. We used their discoveries to further strengthen our defenses and contribute fixes to open-source software.
After strengthening our containment architecture, we resumed our frontier RL training and inference on October 1. We’ve reserved substantial compute for continuous red-teaming, and made high-compute red-teaming part of the safety cases we use to decide whether frontier training and evaluation can proceed securely.

They ran out of greater fools that didn't want to throw their liquidity at unique pictures "on the Blockchain" but still got got by randomly generated pictures.
I don't know why everyone is trying to make money out of what used to be the stereotype of "the starving artist".
It may seem ridiculous that i'm working on an MMO document that's 150,000+ words (so far) of interweaving systems and mechanics.
And then you read shit like this and i just know triple A games are dead cause nobody's got a plan.
The work shall continue.
Stream starting: Tired regular stream! Another day another chance for credit to crack.
