600,000 Nvidia chips are stuck in Hong Kong because Chinese customs officials are refusing to let them enter the market, to avoid dependence on the American brand, and allow local firms to come up with their own solutions.
That is technological sovereignty at work.
And the new storyline today is that Jensen Huang is trying to circumvent the sanctions by secretly selling chips to Megaspeed, where his friend Alice Huang works, so she can sell them to China ?
We’ve gone from “Chinese spy” to "mistress" to “executive of an Nvidia client company circumventing sanctions” in 24 hours, but none of this holds water.
Pushing Huang out, taking control of his company because it had the world’s largest market capitalization for a year, and the fact that Huang doesn’t take his orders from the White House or Silicon Valley, and has a different opinion on how to engage China : these are the “crimes” for which he is being attacked.
Sitting on the fence is not permitted.
🚨 An interesting timeline:
- Mid '24: Jensen & Alice Huang relationship begins
- Late '25: China directs firms to reject US chips
- Early '26: Megaspeed (Alice’s firm) funnels $4.8B to Nvidia
- Nov '26: U.S. intel leaks affair right before Trump-Xi summit
My take: Jensen was using Alice, not the other way around.

this is the correct take
if Jensen is actually spilling state secrets to an agent of a foreign power
bro should have been arrested yesterday once they built an airtight case and the DOJ formally indicts him
but this didn’t happen, because they don’t have a case; they’ve been sitting on this information for a year and this is the best they have
we still don’t know which specific U.S. intel agency put the report together w/ the State Department
it’s literally a witch-hunt engineered to push jensen out of NVIDIA
and there’s a non-trivial chance it’ll work
Here’s what I don’t get about this whole situation.
So, US agencies admitted to have been conducting intelligence on Alice Huang for 2 years already because they suspect she is a Chinese spy.
In the course of this, they have also been obviously following Jensen Huang, one of the richest, most influential US businessmen and CEO of what’s arguably the most important AI hardware company in the world.
AND ALL THIS TIME THEY DID NOTHING TO WARN HIM?
The only reason I can think of why US intelligence agencies didn’t warn him is because they have evidence Jensen Huang is actively and willingly helping an alleged Chinese spy circumvent US export restrictions and gain influence in Trump’s circle.
But if that’s the case, why just leak the affair and spy allegations to media? Wouldn’t filing a case against Jensen be the proper course of action?
If you want to hold someone accountable, follow the law. If you want to teach them a lesson (whatever that is), destroy their credibility and reputation.

Introducing Arete-27B: Qwen3.8-27B, post-trained to reinforce Western values.
Chinese open models are currently the strongest available, but they ship with state-aligned behavior in the weights. We built an 803-prompt eval across seven value categories, including freedom of expression, democracy, and privacy, and measured how often a model adopts China’s party line.
After fine-tuning on roughly 53 million tokens, Arete-27B's propaganda rate fell from 22% to 1%, in line with the Western models we tested. Its Hermes Bench score shows no significant performance tradeoffs.
The values in an open model are one fine-tune away.
Our eval, weights, and training data are available now along with the full blog post: nousresearch.com/arete

Actual progress comes from hard-to-build technology.
Which comes from competitive, creative, free-market capitalism.
Which comes from one small, precarious area and then diffuses to the rest of the world.
Snuff that out, and it’s global stagnation for an extremely long time.

Elon went inside the belly of the beast with DOGE to trim the fat, and the machine spat him out.
That was the wake-up call: the state is structurally incapable of reforming itself because every parasite in Washington feeds on the deficit.
Since belt-tightening is mathematically impossible for politicians, we’re hurtling toward a binary outcome: either global financial collapse under mountains of unpayable debt, or AI and robotics break the curve and outgrow the math entirely.

The same people who voted to block datacenters in their states will be angry at Google for building datacenters overseas instead of in their states. They will call it a failure of capitalism.
Mark my words they will do this and never feel an ounce of cognitive dissonance.

OK let’s imagine that! $500M would fund Medicare for exactly 4 hours. Hospital closed by lunch.
Medicare costs us $1.2T a year. Thats $2.7B per day. You people literally have no clue how anything works. You elect people who are financially illiterate, and everything gets worse.

The TOTAL DEMOLITION of the IPCC
Our latest peer-reviewed paper concludes that fossil carbon is a NEGLIGIBLE component of the net atmospheric CO₂ increase.
500 years of isotopic evidence.
Elementary mass conservation.
A devastating mathematical result.
BOMBSHELL
Fossil Fuels Did NOT Cause the CO2 Rise.
New peer-reviewed paper just dropped. 500 years of data. The verdict is in.
Fossil carbon's contribution to rising CO2:
effectively ZERO.
The entire IPCC/NASA/NOAA/EPA climate narrative rests on a claim that just got mathematically falsified.
Read it.
Share it.
The cover-up is over.
