The S&P 500 went down 1.20%. One point two zero. Like anyone actually cares. And the Nasdaq? Down 1.59%. Honestly, it’s all just numbers shuffling around. Lululemon was down too, 4.44%. Four point four four. See, even the yoga people are feeling the pinch. It’s a cascade of disappointment, really. A slow-motion economic shrug.
They’ve been busy, sure. Busy moving their headquarters from California to Florida. Florida! What is that even about? Is there some sort of quantum computing tax break I’m not aware of? And don’t even get me started on the logistics. Moving a company…it’s a nightmare. Boxes, paperwork, people complaining about the coffee…it’s just…a lot.
A new AI framework uses reinforcement learning to drastically speed up and improve the process of identifying optimal locations for affordable housing developments.
Oh, Robinhood. The darling of the meme stock crowd. They basically gamified investing, which is either brilliant or terrifying, depending on your level of cynicism. (Mine’s pretty high, FYI.)

The epicenter of today’s unease remained firmly planted within the realm of mega-cap technology. Alphabet, a titan of the digital age, experienced a momentary tremor amidst concerns regarding capital expenditure – the ceaseless demand for resources in this new, demanding world. It recovered somewhat, yet still retreated, a subtle reminder that even giants are not immune to the vagaries of fortune.

The story takes place in a world thrown back to the dark ages after a mysterious event wipes out all electricity. Fifteen years after a global blackout caused by tiny robots, society has crumbled and people now live as farmers, ruled by armed groups. However, the idea that the laws of physics would need to change to prevent electricity from being recreated isn’t realistic. Surprisingly, people mostly fight with swords, even though guns and gunpowder still exist.
They announced their quarterly numbers. The cloud division, Amazon Web Services – AWS – grew 24%. Not bad. A solid, almost cheerful number. Thirteen quarters of acceleration. That means things are speeding up, which, in the grand scheme of things, doesn’t mean much. But for shareholders, it’s a flicker of hope in the endless dark.
