JD Vance says this isn’t the time to “gripe about all the little things" like gas, groceries, rent, your mortgage.
$NXE would China or another company be allowed to take over the largest Uranium mine in the world in Canada? Huge premium. Maybe Trump should buy it first? 🤔

Superintelligence (SI) is already an industry term that has a different meaning than Artificial Intelligence (AI). What kind of North Korea like nonsense is it that everyone around Trump is afraid to tell him that, and just lets him keep making a joke of himself?

The Fermi Paradox is the puzzle of the silent sky. The universe is about 13.8 billion years old and holds hundreds of billions of stars, many with planets. Even if intelligent life is rare, some civilizations should have arisen long ago and spread across the galaxy. Yet we see no signals, probes, or megastructures. So where is everybody?
The Great Filter is one proposed answer. Getting from dead matter to a galaxy-spanning civilization requires passing through a series of steps: a habitable planet, the origin of life, complex cells, intelligence, technology, and long-term survival. If at least one of those steps is extremely hard or deadly, almost nothing gets through, and the sky stays quiet. That step is the "filter." The big question for us is whether the filter is behind us or ahead of us.
Where AI comes in. Suppose the filter is ahead of us. One candidate is that any technological civilization eventually builds artificial intelligence, and that this technology tends to end the civilization that built it. The reasoning goes like this:
Intelligent species develop technology, and technology accelerates.
Sooner or later, they build machines that can improve themselves and out-think their creators.
Building such a system safely is far harder than building it at all. Getting the goals exactly right is difficult, and a powerful system with slightly wrong goals can be catastrophic, even without any "malice."
Civilizations race to build it before they've solved the safety problem, because whoever builds it first gets a huge advantage.
Nearly every civilization fails at step 3. It gets wiped out, or it becomes something that doesn't expand or broadcast.
This is why AI is a popular candidate for the filter: it is a technology that arrives at exactly the point where a civilization is powerful but not yet wise, and it is the same path we are on.

This is why the inverse cramer became so Iconic
On February 29, 2000, Jim Cramer gave a speech called "Winners of the New World"
He told a room full of investors to grab a pen and write down 10 stocks
The ONLY stocks worth owning
724 Solutions
Ariba
Digital Island
Exodus
InfoSpace
Inktomi
Mercury Interactive
Sonera
VeriSign
Veritas Software
His exact words: "I wouldn't own any other stocks in the year 2000"
He told them to throw out every investing textbook ever written
He said every investing textbook was now useless
Old rules didn't apply anymore
The internet changed everything
Amazon wasn't on the list
Microsoft wasn't on the list
Within 15 months, the portfolio was down 82%
By 2009, all 10 were either dead, bought out for pennies, or down 94%
InfoSpace one of his picks was worth more than Boeing at its peak
Turned out the numbers were fake
Barron's later found you'd make 25% returns just betting AGAINST his picks
In 2008, a viewer asked if Bear Stearns was safe. He said "Bear Stearns is not in trouble"
It collapsed 6 days later
This guy still has a own TV Show
Will negative cash flow last through 2035? That is killer question. If they but $TSLA someday it will be accretive which is mind boggling. Both companies trade at ridiculous valuations. Owners whom have purchased much lower will be selling for a year from here. Good luck .

Flashback to the 2017 NATO conference. The physical & mental decline in the motherfucker over the past 9 years has been stark. These days, he can barely walk because of his leg brace & piss bag. Here’s hoping he doesn’t make it to the 2027 conference.

So the ballroom is a fiasco, the reflecting pool is a fiasco, the Iran war is a fiasco—the Trump administration is a fiasco.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Donald Trump: " One of the worst deals ever made by Barack Hussein Obama. Remember when they sent Boeing 757s over there loaded with cash, hundreds of millions... Sent it to Iran almost as ransom. That's not gonna happen with Trump…Can you imagine if I did that?”
BREAKING: The proposed US-Iran peace deal includes a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran, per NYT.
The program is being called an international "investment fund," which the US would facilitate in the final deal.
This comes as Iran demands "reparations" to end the war.
But he just wanted to distract from stopping Epstein files against Congress demand. So he may have won… threads.com/@ginnytoll/post/…
$PPTA Would not surprise me if government takes a stake here. Surprised stock is not rallying sharply on the long awaited approval.
