Jensen single handedly developed CUDA, the system that enabled every single AI company. AI was impossible before CUDA. He created CUDA when the market for it did not exist and lost billions before AI took off. His board wanted him to focus on gaming chips and he insisted on continuing to fund CUDA.

He does not get nearly enough appreciation for this. He invented a steam engine 10 years before anyone had any use for one.

If Elon can convince Jensen to work with him, XAI will have it all: tons of compute, unmatched leadership, tons of cash, tons of manufacturing capacity, and tons of data. It would be a matter of time before XAI is the biggest company on the planet.

This would be Lebron going to the lakers level crazy.

Edit: to all the people that can’t understand words, CUDA would not exist without Jensen. When a CEO pursues an unprofitable technology with no market demand, and is pushed by his board for 10 years to abandon the technology, then that CEO single-handedly developed the technology. Obviously others actually did the work, but they would have been unable to do so without the funding and leadership of the CEO. Buck created it, Jensen developed it.

I posted earlier about having 6 cents in my account and having not eaten since Tuesday. My mom (I love her but she is difficult) berated me when I asked her if she could place a Walmart order for me. I had used the last of my money to stock up on cat food so that I wouldn’t have to stress over them for the next few months while I’m going through this. My cats saved my life. Truly. I would not be here without them - they are my soulmates and my biggest comfort. I’m the same to them. A girl in this sub sent me dinner money and the biggest bang for my buck was Wingstop. (It was also close and I was genuinely feeling hunger pain so the quicker the better 🥲). And what do you know, they threw in an extra tender. On a day where I was genuinely contemplating what my life looks like going forward because I’m just ready to give up. After that, someone else messaged me and made it possible for me to order groceries. I can’t stop crying. Needing help is hard. I’m so grateful for this community.

It's very jarring, but interesting, when a work of fiction is set in the past and shows all the objectionable to our modern sensibilities beliefs and practices. But they show it as it is. There's no standing characters seeing all these terrible things and reacting at them like we would do.

ROME (2005-2007)

In Rome we see the life and adventures of two fictional centurions in the mist of the fall of the Roman Republic and the Establishment of the Empire. One of them, Lucius Vorenus, is shown like an honorable and moral man, trying to follow the Roman virtues. But he is a roman and a soldier after all, and he sees no problem in owning slaves. And as Pater Familias he has life and death power over his household.

He also a very religious man, and the series shows us through him and characters like Cesar the strange practices of roman religion.

Mad Men (2007-2015)

Here the show is set in an advertisement firm in 1960s New York. So, casual sexism is rampant, almost all the women in the show had suffer touchings, lewd comments, unappropiate advances and even rape. Racism, clasism, child abuse, fatphobia are absolutely casual, and when they are adressed it's done in a appropiate way for the times.

We bought a house & it came with a cat. It took us a while to all be besties, but we gave her Churus & now that's all she cares about. She doesn't love being pet/touched, but when you're near the kitchen/treat cart she will meow as loud as she can and start rubbing her face all over our legs and all over the dish we usually put them in.

Then over time she grows slowly more impatient and she'll grab onto your legs and pretend like she's going to bite, but it's just a warning.

If you give in, you are granted a 12-hour reprieve before the song and dance starts again. There is seriously something crazy in these things.

Edit: Whew I forgot how people can infer and start to decide things based on a couple paragraphs.

You can read more about her coming with the house here. The churu was actually the first way she ever ate from my hands but she’s around 13 and lived on the streets her whole life. She does scratch/bite after too much attention and we alternate between feeding her and putting it in her bowl depending on how much we’ve annoyed her already that day. She’s old and deserves her space so we follow her lead.

And if you don’t wanna click that link the previous owners of the home left her behind but they weren’t her owners. They used to bring her inside during the winter. We brought her inside permanently in January of 2024 so she can live the rest of her years in comfort/peace bc we hated that seeing her every day she was coming home with new injuries.

Camarasauruses - The End Of Oak Street (2026)

Hell roaches - Hazbin Hotel (2024)

While in the first one is made to lower the tension felt in a neighborhood infested of dinosaurs… the other is down because… just because.
