EVs can power the grid. Why aren't more of them doing it?
Bidirectional charging can send power to the grid when it's under stress, and earn money for EV owners. But rolling it out is a challenge.

Kimi K3 just dropped. 2.8 trillion parameters, 1M-token context window, open weights. Capabilities comparable to Fable 5. 🔥 And every enterprise buyer is doing the same math right now. Here is what running it yourself actually costs: - 16x NVIDIA H200 GPUs: ~$500,000. That's GPUs only. No chassis, no networking, no power infrastructure. - Model weights on disk: 1 to 1.7TB depending on quantization. - What's left for actual context: somewhere between 550 and 1,250GB of KV cache.

You know those Nazis people were living next to in Germany, back in the day? You’re living next to them right now. And they have those lovely families and the house next door and every day they go to work at corporations that are complicit in genocide. And if you’re wondering what you would have done about it back then… well, you’re doing it now. And, more than likely, it’s exactly what most folks did in Nazi Germany. Which is absolutely fuck all.

It’s just •astonishing• how many eye-popping stories of LLMs doing amazing omg-verge-of-magical-superintelligence things turn out to be just unvarnished plagiarism.

It was a lot less impressive when I dug up the 2 or 3 online passages which it had copied almost verbatim and stitched together (sprinkling in a couple of extra words that made it less accurate).

The reasons we consider plagiarism to be cheating in school and malpractice in professional contexts are many of the same reasons that LLMs are not going to replace all knowledge-based human labor. (Details left as an exercise for the reader.)
And yes, a whole lot of what LLMs do •would• count as plagiarism if one of my students did it manually, and •should• count as plagiarism just the same if they use a machine to do it — not just in a “that’s cheating!!” sense, but more importantly in a “that’s not really doing the work” sense.

Congress gave orders to Trump officials on foreign aid spending, but officials have largely refused to follow many of them, likely in violation of the law, experts say.
Officials have made little effort to spend aid money that Congress earmarked for specific purposes like nutrition and have reduced funding for HIV and other diseases.
