Tempting if looking to build a new workshop or garage. Tear it down, and build from scratch.

Be warned, once you get into mechanical watches it can be a debilitating addiction. :-). I started out with a Tag Heuer Aquaracer Professional and then sold that to buy an Omega Seamaster Diver which I love. I’m lusting for a Audemars Piguet Royal Oak but that’s a ways off.

It all comes down to financial incentives. Unlike the internet and software where the barrier to entry was essentially free. Open source frontier models are extremely capital intensive, infact virtually impossible without hordes of money and power. So where are the incentives for investors to back an open source model? There isn’t any. The exception is Meta because they have so much capital they can endure the loss, but they have fumbled Llama.

Another potential player could be Apple if they open sourced a frontier model, and make back some of the capex on hardware. Imagine AIserve hardware with continued expansion of MacMini’s and Mac Studios.

Microsoft CEO Nadella just recently said their Fairwater (315-acre facility in Wisconsin) only uses around the same amount of water as a single restaurant over the course of an entire year.

25 data center projects were canceled in 2025, up sharply from only 6 in 2024. 2026 numbers gonna be dramatically higher. 69 jurisdictions have enacted some form of moratorium, ban, or restriction on new data center construction. The friendly states such as Texas are just going to have all the data centers and thus reap all the financial and job benefits.

The quickest way to lose the AI battle to China and reinstate censorship and model political bias is to hand the industry over to the government. This doesn’t just benefit democrats, whatever political party is in power will use them as tools of political means. Not to mention almost certainly pricing won’t act in accordance with free market forces but instead be regulated. See healthcare.

One reason is that politicians have vilified them for their own political means. Creating false narratives like they use huge amounts of water, when in fact the cooling is a closed loop system and use less water than a single busy restaurant. They are being used as yet another pawn piece to push inequity and climate change agendas. It’s been quite a successful strategy.

Ahh that's very nice. Unfortunately the default version of sqlite3 provided by Debian Trixie is 3.46.1.

The biggest annoyance about SQLite for me is no ability to:

    ALTER TABLE users MODIFY COLUMN…

    ALTER TABLE users ALTER COLUMN…

    ALTER TABLE users ADD CONSTRAINT…
You have to create a new temporary table with correct schema, copy data into this new table, drop the old table, and then rename the temporary table.

Smart move IPO'ing ahead of Anthropic. Can take a lot of AI capital being first mover... That is, until Anthropic IPO's which I expect shortly.

A shout out to Databasus (https://databasus.com). It’s a remarkably simply utility and web interface to schedule PostgreSQL backups. I use it in my homelab and works great.

Appreciate the analysis and agree it's gone more vertical than a Saturn V rocket. I sold a large chuck today in AF. My point withstanding is the tech crowd (including HN comments) and tech YouTubers are clueless when it comes to investing. Perhaps when sentiment on HN of a publicly traded company reaches peak bear you buy, buy, buy.

Examples: Boeing during "covid". Tesla pretty much anytime. Intel....

I’ve been a holder of Intel since low $20’s and kept on accruing more and more.

Every once in a while opportunities like intel come along where a previous tech market leader loses strength and the market overreacts and drives the price down way too much.

Mainstream media latches on, calls the end of the company, tech YouTubers and the HN comment section follow suit. Price further falls to ridiculous lows and becomes a screaming value buy.

It doesn’t happen often, but when it does it’s a great opportunity. There are of course exceptions (Kodak comes to mind) but a company like Intel when we are going through perhaps the largest ever compute and processing demand surge was just silly.

Awesome. I’m currently using AWS SQS which invokes lambda functions for asynchronous tasks like email sends, but Honker seems like a great local replacement.

Any conflicts or issues when running Litestream as well?

His passion and oration skills are something to behold. Love the intro tie in with mechanical watches and cars, it's the same level of OCD as us computer nerds.
