Two new super clusters are coming!
Replying to @herbertong @CernBasher
Macroharder and Minihard both have 220k GB300s with 800 gig nics configured for training. Gun Range will have the same. Spam (used to house Hormel products) will have ~200k GB300s, but configured for inference, so much simpler networking and less than half the fiber.
I walked the whole Colossus 2 site around midnight and again this morning.
Good progress by the SpaceX team and contractors. Gun Range is tracking to be operational by end of November and Spam in December.

James Talarico wants to kill the filibuster so Democrats can pack the Supreme Court and make DC a state.
When Manchin and Sinema saved the 60 vote rule in 2022, they blocked DC statehood, a bigger Court, and mass legalization.
He is running as the vote that ends it.
He even told Semafor the rule stops voters from judging the next election.
He is open to expanding the number of justices, backs citizenship for long term illegal immigrants, and called ICE a secret police force terrorizing communities.
Btw, Abdul El Sayed and Peggy Flanagan support packing the Court too.
Texas votes Tuesday.

Things you don’t need to worry about when buying a Tesla:
• Driving (FSD takes you everywhere)
• Oil changes
• Stopping at gas stations
• High gas prices
• Spark plugs or ignition coils
• Transmission fluid changes (Tesla has a simple single-speed gearbox)
• Exhaust system repairs (mufflers, catalytic converters, oxygen sensors)
• Radiator, water pump, or coolant flushes
• Timing belt/chain replacement
• Fuel pump or fuel injector cleaning/replacement
• Serpentine belt or accessory belt replacements
• Head gasket failures
• Replacing 12V batteries (Teslas have lithium batteries)
• Transmission faults or failures
• Emissions testing & failing smog checks
• Overheating from coolant leaks or failed thermostats
• Multiple brake pad/rotor replacements (regenerative braking enables brakes to last onwards of 100k-200k miles)
• NO MORE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS.
• Driving past 3 gas stations because “it’s 10 ¢ cheaper 2 miles away”
• Catalytic converter theft (yes that’s a thing)
• Not dealing with aggressive dealerships and service.
+ many more.
All the maintenance a Tesla really needs is:
• Tire Rotations
• Cabin Air filter replacements
• Brake fluid changes if needed after many years
Unlike a gas car that has 2,000-3,000 moving parts in its powertrain, a Tesla has only 20-50 moving parts.

Bernie Sanders and 12 House Democrats quietly demanded that Meta turn over its communications with the Trump administration.
This isn't about an American election. It's about Brazil's.
Rashida Tlaib, Pramila Jayapal and Austin's own Greg Casar signed on too.
They say Meta was too easy on Bolsonaro and too hard on Lula.
Lula won anyway.
They still want an outside auditor inside Meta's moderation data, plus its internal playbook for policing foreign elections.
Answers are due Nov. 4, the day after our midterms.
These are the same people who cheered while Big Tech throttled Americans for years.
Censorship was never their problem.
Losing control of it is.

🚨 FACT CHECK THIS, TEXAS!
In 2019, James Talarico voted NO on permanently banning a state income tax in the Texas Constitution.
The House passed it 100 to 42. Talarico was one of the 42.
Texans approved the ban anyway, with more than 74% of the vote.
Now he wants you to believe he has "always" been against an income tax.
Texas, finish the job on Election Day.

Another truckload of Cybercabs being shipped out with decals visible on the rear 👀
May indicate production-level models ready for the fleet 🧐
The question is, where are these cabs headed? 🤔 (Please be Dallas)

🇺🇸 California used to be a REPUBLICAN presidential stronghold.
Then the map flipped, and it never flipped back.
Republicans carried California in 6 straight presidential elections from 1968-1988.
Since George H.W. Bush's 1988 victory, however, Democrats have won the state in every presidential election.
Reagan's 1986 immigration amnesty was a turning point.
California's transformation also unfolded alongside major demographic, migration and political changes.
By 2024, California's registered voters included roughly 10.36 million Democrats versus 5.64 million Republicans.
One of America's former Republican strongholds became one of its most reliably Democratic states.

Leave California over a wealth tax? Tax them nationwide.
Leave America? Get global leaders to impose the same tax.
The strategy: leave taxpayers nowhere to escape the tax.
And they wonder why many call them globalists.👇🏽

$AMZN is in a stronger position now than at any time in its past
The vibes right now
Vote for all the Americans that have been killed by illegal immigrants.
Vote against the party that killed Charlie Kirk for standing up for peaceful dialogue.
Vote for the safety of your family and against the part that wants to protect criminals instead of victims.
