Every technological age got the institutions it deserved: the printing press got the nation-state, the factory got the bureaucracy. Superintelligence will get one too. The only question is whether builders design it, or inherit someone else's. Praxis is choosing to design.
Apply to help us design a society for the superintelligence age,

Absolutely correct. The opinions of journalists and whiners don’t matter. This was a targeted hit - a corporate raid on Nvidia. It’s a well-practiced method for eliminating someone. This world deserves to see Atlas shrug one day.
No. Bill Clinton did not resign.
Jensen Huang shouldn’t either.
And the Nvidia board shouldn’t fire him.
Particularly in the heat of the moment.
Ride it out and ignore the journos.
Clinton did. And then no one cared.

Crypto people are particularly stupid about AI. You trained your brain on a market that is pure psychology / zero fundamentals, because fundamentals (driving value to the token) was illegal.
AI is different. There are fundamentals to analyze. Your analysis is actively wrong, and creates opportunity those paying attention.

i am insanely underslept in this clip but i feel very strongly about this principle. most times your job in the world is to turn things into “just” f() of something (dollars/gpus/tokens/standard labor/…)
.@willdepue argues that the biggest breakthroughs come from turning difficult problems into something you can scale with money, compute, or AI tokens:
"Once you figure out how to attach these LiDAR sensors to these planes, suddenly the number of Mayan artifacts found was simply a function of flight time."
"The longer you fly this plane over these jungles, the more area you can cover."
"The second any problem in the world is simply a function, f of compute, f of dollars, f of tokens, it's really, really easy to find those inputs. There's a lot of money, there's a lot of tokens, a lot of GPUs in the world."
"A lot of the hard work is what Mehran did of coordinating with the Mexican and Belizean government, partnering with these institutions, finding how to get the plane in the air. And then the raising money part is honestly pretty trivial."

🚨 35,578 Grok-built apps were accessible online without signing in.
Some exposed confidential X documents, employee passwords, and patient data.
Even hard-to-guess app URLs could be found through searchable DNS records.

Our spacecraft just made interplanetary history - twice.
Blue & Gold flawlessly executed powered Earth gravity assists, two days apart, to slingshot our planet and shoot for Mars' orbit.
This is the first time the highly complex maneuver has been executed successfully by spacecraft.
ESCAPADE has proven a new path is possible to make it to Mars outside the typical Earth-to-Mars launch window that occurs every 26 months.
Next ESCAPADE mission milestone: Mars Orbit Insertion, September 2027.

SpaceX has ordered 100 GW/year of HJT solar manufacturing equipment from Singulus in Germany.
This is for Starmind to create a sentient sun.
We have signed a major supply contract with SINGULUS to create a durable option for advanced solar cell manufacturing to support more than 100 GW of equipment as we accelerate the production of our Starmind satellites in Bastrop, Texas → singulus.com/2026/11/10/spac…

INVESTIGATING AREA 51 with Planet Labs AI
What changed at Area 51 over the last 5 years?
“You see there were 2 planes on there & they're gone.”
“I actually don't know what that is.”
Planet CEO Will Marshall (@Will4Planet):
BREAKING: Inside Planet Labs (NYSE: $PL )
If you had access to every image of the entire Earth over the history of time, what questions would you ask? What would you explore?
FACTORY TOUR
I got a 1st look inside @planet Labs' new manufacturing floor w/ Co-Founder & CEO Will Marshall (@Will4Planet)
This is our Part II of Planet series, Part I: Sit-Down Interview below.
Planet has built 700+ satellites, second only to SpaceX, their constellation captures 4 MILLION images daily, powering intelligence across defense, agriculture, infrastructure & more.
We toured the manufacturing floor, where satellites can be built in just 8 hours at ~1,000X lower cost than traditional spacecraft, explored next-generation satellites, and saw how they survive 200G launch shocks.
We also discussed SpaceX's collision avoidance efforts and tested Planet's new AI platform to investigate 5 years of changes at Area 51.
Inside the factory:
• Area 51: We used Planet's new AI platform to investigate 5 years of changes at the secretive military base
• 8-hour production: Planet can manufacture up to 40 Dove satellites per week
• 1,000X cost reduction: How consumer electronics transformed satellite manufacturing economics
• Next-generation satellites: Inside the clean room with Pelican-10 and a look at Owl, targeting 1-meter daily imagery
• SpaceX & collision avoidance: Starlink's push to open-source space traffic data and the challenge of tracking ~100M pieces of orbital debris
• 10X more data, 10X faster: The next generation of Planet's Earth imaging network
• 200G shock testing: How satellites survive rocket launches, extreme vibrations & temperature changes
• Software-like margins: Why Planet's vertically integrated hardware infrastructure creates a high barrier to entry for its data business

The idea that “our people” have never pulled stakes and set up camp somewhere else is just wrong.

My ancestors came to America, an untamed wilderness, in the 18th century to build a new nation.
We can do the same today.
