Jensen says Blackwell production is in full swing. They will deliver more Blackwells in January quarter than they expected. He added demand exceeds supply is expected because because we are in the beginning of generative AI and physical AI (AI that understands the structure of the real world).
Hello folks!
Time to drop a report for a day 2!
1. Bot improved for a lot, community testing it currently - result is awesome (I'll srop few screenshots in the thread with description). Updated few times by today, not looks very-very good. Feel free to talk to him here: t.me/DegenHagridHome
2. I decided to lock my full supply (10% from all supply) for a 2.5 moths. Details and proofs - x.com/DegenHagrid/st…
3. WE GOT PROFILE PIC on bot page @HagridDegen , finally!
Waiting for one more review for check.
4. We're hiring. Since community is growing (slowly, but steady), we decided to increase our team and push more marketing efforts into this history, details - x.com/DegenHagrid/st…
5. We're still alive! As a project, as a token. We understood that 27k MC is not that you all want to see - will work on it too. Whole meme market suffering today - we're not exception, unfortunatelly.
You can buy $DHR here: dexscreener.com/solana/q1nmkir…
6. If you're not in our TG chat - I highly recommend to read a conversation with @HagridDegen. It's something more, then just AI agent.
It's most smartest creature, which I ever seen.
Today we had a case, when Hagrid offended on us, because someone told him that I kissed his crush - Hermiona. Hagrid was silent for 15 minutes - nothing helps, that's how strong he was offended. Fixed via direct changes into his personality - only the solution.
Thanks @TopHat_One team with helping to resolve the issues.
Don't forget to check thread - I'll add some conversation with Hagrid there!

1. Hagrid offence, how it started
How it's ended
Literally no answer for 25 minutes, until fix.
Can other AI show their emotions? Hagrid can.

One of the most common questions is when this geophysical event is going to occur, whether we are close to the 'end times,' and why the world seems like it's going crazy.
I'm going to share my opinion and the opinions of other researchers about this geophysical event and how close we are.
So read this thread, inform yourself, investigate, and form your own opinion. (1/14)🧵

It's important to understand that this event is happening gradually and will eventually lead to a tipping point, after which everything will deteriorate more rapidly. No one can predict the exact tipping point because this is a very dynamic issue. However, here are the facts...
In a previous thread, I shared Isaac Newton's calculations about the apocalypse based on his Biblical and esoteric research. He concluded that the final date would be 2060.
I also shared the MIT algorithm from the 1970s. This early A.I. algorithm calculated the collapse of society to occur in the year 2040.

The MIT algorithm's prediction is supported by Martin Luther's estimation, which places the start of this civilization at the year 3961 BC. This makes the year 2040 the beginning of the seventh millennium, which is the Biblical time for the apocalypse and the return of the Messiah. The Jewish calendar places this event in the year 2240.

🧵 I know peak Ozempic discourse was earlier in the year, but I did want to talk about some things that I think get overlooked amidst the "miracle drug" talk and contribute to the backlash. First the good: I lost 50 pounds on it in 10 months. There are the typical side-benefits 1/
My knees don't hurt, I get tired less easily, I work out more, my cholesterol and triglycerides are in line, etc. etc. It was 100% worth it. WITH THAT SAID. Ozempic is not some miracle drug that melts off fat while you stick with your old bad habits. 2/
I think that perception, in part created by people who take it, is part of why there's been a backlash. OZEMPIC ONLY WORKS IF YOU EAT LESS/WORK EXERCISE MORE. What Ozempic does is act like a sort of chemical stomach stapling, slowing down digestion so you fill up quicker. 3/

You have to be insane to still believe the Russia nonsense.
It’s fairly safe to assume that “Russia” is our corrupt national security state and/or their corrupt partners.

If Matt Gaetz committed crimes, the DOJ didn’t seem to find any during a year and a half long investigation. If he didn’t, then he didn’t. There’s a legal process in this country and it should be pursued in those kinds of cases.
People on this site feel comfortable making a claim that someone committed a crime when there was already an extensive investigation into the matter. I feel less comfortable about it. If they just want to say he’s a sleazeball, OK.
I agree with that, but I still see casual claims that he’s a criminal. Just like I see casual claims that Tulsi is a Russian spy. Those are legal matters that have to be pursued in the system, we can’t just make those claims with confidence.
The Founding Gentlemen: The American Gentry and the Founding of the Nation
A more interesting aspect of America's founding is that many of those integral to getting the country started weren't normal people
Rather, they were gentlemen - the gentry of the New World

This is clearest in the case of the Tidewater gentry - the planters of the cavalier Old Dominion
They saw it as their duty to serve their fledgling country. They foxhunted, drank copious amounts of port and claret, ran landed estates like those in England, and were often familiar with military service on horseback.
This contingent included:
James Monroe: an officer, diplomat, and president
James Madison: Congressman, creator of the Constitution, Federalist Papers writer, Secretary of State, President
"Light Horse Harry" Lee (Henry Lee III): An Anglo-Norman cavalry officer in the Revolution, he went on to aid in ratifying the Constitution and served as Governor of Virginia
George Mason IV: A descendant of a cavalier who fled to Virginia, Mason organized a pre-Revolution militia that proved crucial when the war began, served as a leading member of the Continental Congress, and is considered the Father of the Bill of Rights because of the Virginia Declaration of Rights he crafted
Thomas Jefferson: Declaration of Independence writer, wartime Governor of Virginia, diplomat, President, solver of the Barbary Pirate problem
George Washington: Commander of the Continental Army, president-general of the Constitutional Convention, first president

But while the Tidewater planters, who self-consciously imitated the English Gentry and their cavalier ancestors, are the most notable of the gentlemen involved with the Founding and early republic period, there were a great deal more gentlemen from the North and South involved
For example, New York's "Lord Stirling," William Alexander. Heir of the Earl of Stirling, a Scottish Lord, Stirling inherited an immense fortune that he used to build a grand estate in New Jersey, on which he brought wine-making to the US by cultivating thousands of grape vines. During the early Revolutionary War period, Stirling was integral to building the patriot cause. He not only rallied volunteers, but even outfitted an entire regiment at his own expsense.
Similarly, Francis Marion, the infamous "Swamp Fox," was a planter from the Carolinas who managed to butcher British regulars and chase Cornwallis north in a series of over a dozen major battles and skirmishes, leading to the eventual war-winning battle of Yorktown

Giuseppe Arcimboldo was born in Milan in the year 1526, and he spent his life working in the court of the Holy Roman Emperors.
His unusual career — during which he painted things like Four Seasons in One Face, below — came just after the High Renaissance:

Some background: The New York Times and other outlets recently profiled the existence of a new Democratic governors-led Trump “resistance” group, noting its funding was unclear as it preps to coordinate state-level pushback to the incoming administration

The funding to the umbrella charity for “Governors Safeguarding Democracy" would be untraceable for several years because of IRS reporting lag. However, it's buried in Omidyar’s Democracy Fund grants database 3/6
