Memphis has a lot to be thankful to Elon Musk for. I don't see anyone else building the world's most powerful computer in Memphis of all places, a very high crime location.

They could also thank Trump for the National Guard and then thank the National Guard while they’re at it.

Lotus Notes will cut it down to x386 speed.

I would like to “employees” or similar instead of the commie word “worker” used at least some.

Headline broken.

“XAI: Today, on Site, We Have Over 2,000 employees Building a Silicon Calf AI.”

There. I fixed it for you.

IR removed the offensive and all too-common Marxist term for lumpen proletariat “worker,” and inserted an old testament oblique reference to false gods, modernized.

Was the announcement generated by a computer? That makes it completely accurate and believable, right?

My favorite Asimov story. And I've read them all. Number two is "The Billiard Ball".

And AC said, "LET THERE BE LIGHT!"
