> Its shares fell more than 10 per cent in after-hours trading[...] The share price drop, if sustained, would wipe more than $400bn from the group’s market value, the largest single-day loss in the company’s history.
Nothing worth a trillion bucks can be sold today. :)
Also, this does include things like property and equipment ($375bn), which I'm guessing are essential for running the business.
That aside, GOOG does hold $265bn in cash and near cash, which in my book is a lot of money.

But, I imagine, no stock either?
For the grayscale, I'm guessing each physical display would need to be individually calibrated? I also wonder whether the calibration is sensitive to environmental factors, i.e. gets out of whack if the display is too hot or too cold.
"We give a deterministic algorithm that computes the discrete Fourier transform at every length n in O ( n ( log n ) ** (1 − 10 ** −13)) operations. The model uses exact complex arithmetic, unrestricted coefficients, specified Fourier roots, and unit-cost logarithmic-size indexing; scalar preparation and array organization are included."
(Gosh, it's been a decade already.)
What's the source for such recent revenue numbers?
And 50% over what -- two months ago, same months last year etc?
Maybe, but who is Waymo to decide whether your trip was gratuitous? Perhaps you had brief business in Embarcadero and chose the particular mix of modalities for one reason or another (timing; or had to carry something heavy one way but not the other etc).
"Investors are questioning whether Anthropic can sustain its extraordinary growth as [...] the potential for AI to destroy humanity cloud[s] its blockbuster IPO."
What a time to be alive.
Bitcoin derivatives arbitrage doesn't sound like something I'd personally be comfortable getting into, but I'd be curious to hear more about the types of things you're doing (to the extent you're happy to share).
I can see how it can be useful to start with a broad type, e.g. a union, and narrow it down in a block. However, I don't quite get the opposite direction shown in their example (first an int, then a string, then a union).
My thought experiment was along the lines of "Let's say I'm Anthropic and I want to significantly improve my frontier model's performance on, say, theoretical physics research. How do I build a fully autonomous process capable of constructing an eval that's somewhat outside the current capability in some useful direction (decided by the autonomous process itself)?"
Would love to hear folks' ideas. :)
What other potential uses are there? Uploading books without WiFi is the only one that comes to mind.
The pitch is that, if you know you'll need a certain amount of compute at a certain point in the future, you can lock in the rental price today.
