well, it's the— yeah, well, I was gonna say, it's just the desperation of these moments. Well, and it's what plugs the entrepreneur back into the details of it all. Yeah, because for so long it's been okay. And, you know, not saying the business manager's lazy or doing a bad job, not saying that, but they're probably not going to be as tightened up and back to that, you know what I mean, as you are.

Scott Galloway · Pivot · Ellison's Rebrand, Netflix's Struggles, and Elon's Breakup · 2026-10-06If you like JAX, you can use it. But if you like PyTorch, we have torch.tpu, where your unmodified models, etc., can run." We've seen this throughout history, actually, with many, many examples. I've used the example of IP. Why did the Internet Protocol win? There were actually many competing protocols to IP. This is ancient history, in the '70s and early '80s. Why did IP win? It was because it was open standard, and it was this narrow waist to the hourglass where anything could run on top in terms of software and anything could run underneath it in terms of hardware. So open standard, interoperable, anyone who brought IP could plug into a router port and become part of the internet. Like that was, it was beautiful. And that's what allowed the internet to explode in its growth and reach across the world. So we really do believe in those open standards in terms of plugin points.
Amin Vahdat · Training Data · Google's AI Infrastructure Chief, Amin Vahdat, on the Physics & Economics of Frontier AI · 2026-10-06Now, if you want to plug in something highly specialized, You can, right? If you think that you've got a better thing to plug into our framework, you absolutely can. But we want to really support open standards, ideally open source around it as well.
Amin Vahdat · Training Data · Google's AI Infrastructure Chief, Amin Vahdat, on the Physics & Economics of Frontier AI · 2026-10-06And then, so in other words, one view you might have from a modular manufacturing perspective is these racks likely in 2036 are going to be manufactured centrally. And so whether they have 72 or 144 or 288 or probably more, you know, 576, 1152, pick your favorite multiple of GPUs since we're talking about the ineffable case, but then be the same for the TPUs, deeply integrated into a rack. Would a rack be multiple megawatts? You know, we don't know exactly how, but 2036, we get to imagine things. Could be multiple megawatts in a single rack. And now you bring water and you bring power and you bring fiber, right? You wheel that rack in, you plug those three things in, and you're off to the races as well.
Amin Vahdat · Training Data · Google's AI Infrastructure Chief, Amin Vahdat, on the Physics & Economics of Frontier AI · 2026-10-06Up in space by 2036? I wouldn't say that it's not possible. For 2036 for it to be then directly launched into space and then maybe taken by a robotic arm at some space station and then plugged into the right module. Yeah, maybe that for 2036. Fun. Fun to think about.
Amin Vahdat · Training Data · Google's AI Infrastructure Chief, Amin Vahdat, on the Physics & Economics of Frontier AI · 2026-10-06I'll add to your plug of that history. It really is a remarkable document for something that the U.S. government did, which is it's a pretty unsparing critique of the U.S. military as well as the broader U.S. government effort in Iraq done by very impressive U.S. military officers.
Daniel Byman · The Lawfare Podcast · Lawfare Daily: A Progress Report on the War on Terrorism with Peter Bergen · 2026-10-06I mean, luckily they made more mistakes than we did. And the first big one was bin Laden's faulty reading of American strategy, which he based on our pullout from Lebanon in 1983 after the Marine barracks attack killed 241 American service members. Ronald Reagan pulled the plug pretty quickly. We have some interests in Lebanon, but not enormous ones. Bill Clinton similarly pulled the plug after Black Hawk Down in Somalia, where 18 American service members, many of them US Special Forces, special operations forces, were killed in the course of one day. And Clinton, although he didn't serve in Vietnam, he understood the Vietnam era problem of doubling down on bad bets, and he We have no interest really in Somalia and he pulled us out. But so Bin Laden took the wrong lesson from that. In fact, the US military took the wrong lesson from Mogadishu and so did Bin Laden. So we'll start with Bin Laden.
Peter Bergen · The Lawfare Podcast · Lawfare Daily: A Progress Report on the War on Terrorism with Peter Bergen · 2026-10-06In Germany, the government is in danger of collapsing as coalition parties fight over tax hikes. Bloomberg understands measures to plug the widening budget gap could raise more than €4 billion a year, but the parties are struggling to agree which taxes to raise. The fight comes as factory orders plunged 10.6% in August, compared with a 1% decline forecast by economists. The data casts fresh doubt on the strength of the recovery in Europe's biggest economy.
Anna Edwards · Bloomberg News Now · France Unrest, Musk Is a Trillionaire Again, More · 2026-10-06Well, looking to Germany, where the government there is in danger of collapsing as coalition parties fight over tax hikes. Bloomberg understands measures to plug the widening budget gap could raise more than €4 billion a year. But the parties are struggling to agree which taxes to raise. The fight comes as factory orders plunged 10.6% in August, compared with a 1% decline for forecast by economists. The data casts fresh doubt on the strength of the recovery in Europe's biggest economy.
James Woolcock · Bloomberg News Now · Lescure: France Not In Market Dislocation, Merz Struggles, More · 2026-10-06And as long as we're at war, I don't see oil getting too far away from what I call the pinned price of $100, which has somehow become the war price for quite a chunk of time now. All right. So then let's examine the bond market. That's also misleading, too. Sure, there are tons of Paramount Skydance bonds flying around, $52 billion of what I would call untenable paper, meaning those who really need yield are reaching mightily for it with this company. Some of these bonds are trading at 9%. Now, that doesn't mean bargain. It means red flag to me because you're assuming a lot of risk to chase that yield. I never chase yield, but there are always people who think it's worthwhile to do so. I cannot protect them from themselves. We also learned the Treasury Secretary, Bess, basically copped to not being able to stop a bond market slide with his meager multibillion-dollar bond buys. He apparently bought something like $5 billion in change in bonds. He's plugging the dike with a finger and it's got $31 trillion in Treasuries behind it. I don't know what possessed him to say that he had better information than everyone else.
Jim Cramer · Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer · Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 10/5/26 · 2026-10-05Welcome back to Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing. You know, we did take a question from our mailbag at the top, but I want to put in a plug. If you have a question for anyone on our show, you can send those in at podcast@fool.com. We would love to take it if it's a Foolish question, if it's short enough to read, and you remember that we don't give personalized investing advice. But that email is podcast@fool.com. Podcast@fool.com. Now, we want to close off here with a topic that Matt brought to the table regarding bond yields. And bond yields, especially sovereign bond yields are surging. I saw in the news this morning that Japan's bonds are hitting an all-time high yield, but in the U.S., they're hitting high yields as well. This is typically seen as a not good thing for the economy, but we want to flip this around on its head and we want to talk about maybe where the benefit lies for some companies. Rachel, we're going to go with you first.
Jon Quast · Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing · Facing Our Investing Fears · 2026-10-05So I have this— I'm going to step back. So this is a— this is a skylight, which I don't know if you guys have ever You're a dad, David. So this is like a thing that normally hangs on your wall and it's supposed to be able to like, you know, you plan your kids like, you know, appointments, that kind of thing. And it's basically just an Android tablet without a battery and plugs into the wall. And my wife bought this and I did not like it very much. I did not think it worked very well. So through the use of AI, I got it working and obviously it's not working perfectly well. But if we go here, I can show you there's a dashboard. I can actually control the lights in my home. And my favorite little bit is I can actually do a grocery list app. And once I've done it, it actually comes up as a little receipt. And I've made this specifically because I needed— I'm at the fridge, or my wife usually is at the fridge.
John (listener) · The Vergecast · We hear pitches on the best vibe-coded apps · 2026-10-05She needs to send something to me to be like, can you please pick this up? Rather than having one running grocery list, I like getting them as tickets. And so now I get these Telegram messages, and they go into TickTick. But what's really cool What's really cool about it is it's actually like completely adaptable 'cause this is all just a web interface on the back. And so I can actually like go into Claude as it were or whatever and say, hey, I want an app that does this. I want an app that tells me where the Metro is. I want an app that shows me, you know, what the Potomac is doing right now. I want an app that sets timers and, you know, plugs into Home Assistant. So, you know, I want an app that for instance, like I've plugged my car into Home Assistant. So I want a tab where I can press a button and it turns on the climate control and tells me how long it'll be to go to work. And if I'm running late, then like, you know, can I get a Lime bike or something else instead? I think it's really cool that it's like, it isn't anything. It's just a blank slate. And you know, through just talking to it and spending a lot of money on tokens, um, you can get it to do whatever you want. And that's what I've really enjoyed about it.
