Nvidia AI and simulation is used for faster and more profitable AI data centers.

Nvidia with dynamo, Nvlink and other optimizations increases the revenue AI data centers can generate. AI Data Centers are power limited. They need to have energy and compute optimization to generate more tokens per second and more valuable tokens.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's GTC 2025 keynote describes AI advances and reaching $1 trillion per year for AI data centers. The key area is being able to use AI to improve computer chips.

There are some potentially valid criticism about the Nuclear Salt Water Rocket (NSWR). The criticisms highlight real physical constraints. A hydrogenous mixture will moderate neutrons, preventing a fast-spectrum detonation and likely limiting the reaction to a thermal fizz. However, Zubrin's NSWR isn't necessarily aiming for a weapons-grade explosion but rather a controlled, continuous supercritical reaction. ... Read more

Youtuber Mark Rober made a video sponsored by Luminar Lidar (valuation about $170M-200 Million) which used a large billboard sized picture of the road ahead to supposedly causes Tesla Autopilot to fail.

AI gives a thumbs up to Brett Bellmore innovative modifications to Robert Zubrin's Nuclear Salt Water Rocket (NSWR). Switching from water to polyethene and storing in sausage strings could enhance its performance and safety, particularly focusing on avoiding criticality during storage, minimizing parasitic mass, and addressing practical challenges like micrometeorite protection and fuel state. Robert ... Read more

Robert Zubrin's Nuclear Salt Water Rocket (NSWR) design is a rocket that uses known physics and engineering . There are versions that could reach 7-8% of light speed. The use of low grade uranium enrichment for a more near term version is the one that is often described. However, if weapons grade uranium (90% enrichment) ... Read more

The large swings in egg prices has had a noticeable impact on the actual CPI. Normally a small 0.1% component would not have a noticeable impact but increasing by 250% or decreasing by 60% has an effect. Today, the trading economics egg price tracker using USDA information shows that egg prices have dropped to $4.15 ... Read more

The Startup Pulsar Fusion is proposing a 2 Megawatt nuclear fusion orbital components for 2027. Pulsar has now proceeded to phase 3, the manufacture of the initial test unit. Static tests are to begin in 2025 followed by an In Orbit Demonstration (IOD) of the core technology components in 2027. With Sunbird in Orbit: A ... Read more

Nuclear pulse propulsion is a technology that would work. It was being developed in the 1960s but it was stopped because of the nuclear test ban treaty and concerns over fallout inside the magnetosphere of the earth. The reasons not to use Project Orion or to not massively rely on nuclear power fade away on ... Read more

There is possibility that the world will double the amount of natural has energy is used over the next 15 years to power AI data centers. 704 GW of natural gas and an increase of 6170 TWh/year. In future decades there can be increase of 10X or 100X more energy for AI. If this energy ... Read more

The share of eggs in the CPI represents the proportion of total consumer spending attributed to eggs, expressed as a percentage. This weight is small because eggs are just one of many items in the basket, which includes thousands of goods and services.
