I believe they are implying that the filing data is similar (I haven't checked myself) but the bottom two companies are not being targeted by the admin due to their links.

I'm not a hardware specialist. Qualcomm already has their custom CPU core. Can't they just switch out the frontend (fetch/decode) with RISCV and the rest shouldn't be a be big problem?

Qualcomm is pivoting.

It's now focusing on inferencing, both for data centers and edge. They already have an older AI100 NPU card and have other products in the pipeline including server class CPU that they are targeting for "Agentic" applications.

A different personal experience. I had Vit D deficiency. Started on 2000IU per day and was still deficient after months. Then started on 5000IU per day, initially daily but now every other day or so. My last test was in the middle of the "normal" range. I have been taking VitD for 4 years or so. A lot of my symptoms like tiredness, sleepiness etc have improved since then.

I asked my immediate family members to do a test as well. Male/female, young old, across states and even countries. All of them except my mother had low Vit D levels. My mother regularly supplements as its recommended for bone loss prevention in that age.

> Over 537,000 shares, which represent nearly 40% of the entire portfolio

@190/share this is $102 million

Also: > Vistra Energy, another 19% chunk, was wiped out as well.

> Moreover, the fund’s turnover hovered over 80%, leaving just three holdings: Tesla, Microsoft, and Apple.

Some would argue that tesla is a bigger bubble.

> his personal net worth is an eye-popping $16.3 billion as of 2025.

Copied from the end of the page:

What the law does: SB 53 establishes new requirements for frontier AI developers creating stronger:

Transparency: Requires large frontier developers to publicly publish a framework on its website describing how the company has incorporated national standards, international standards, and industry-consensus best practices into its frontier AI framework.

Innovation: Establishes a new consortium within the Government Operations Agency to develop a framework for creating a public computing cluster. The consortium, called CalCompute, will advance the development and deployment of artificial intelligence that is safe, ethical, equitable, and sustainable by fostering research and innovation.

Safety: Creates a new mechanism for frontier AI companies and the public to report potential critical safety incidents to California’s Office of Emergency Services.

Accountability: Protects whistleblowers who disclose significant health and safety risks posed by frontier models, and creates a civil penalty for noncompliance, enforceable by the Attorney General’s office.

Responsiveness: Directs the California Department of Technology to annually recommend appropriate updates to the law based on multistakeholder input, technological developments, and international standards.

Students have access to OPT (1y) and STEM OPT (2y) on the same visa to work after their degree. If they go for a higher degree then they can get OPT again. Grad students from US universities also get a separate quota in the H1B cap.

All of this should to a little extent alleviate some of the concerns.

The weighted system should still work since the candidate pool (from within the US) is likely mostly students on OPT. They should have comparable salaries, unless they are hired by rotten companies.

I once had an algorithms professor who would give us written home assignments and then on the day of submission take a quiz with identical questions. A significant portion of the class did poorly on these quizes despite scoring good on the assignment.

I can't even imagine how learning is impacted by the (ab)use of AI.

> Homeless people are unlikely to pay $20 000 per year which is the price of the drug though.

True, but think about all the people who are fully functioning and productive members of society and got afflicted with this disease. This med will increase the likelihood that they continue to be highly functioning and compliant with the treatment. This will allow them to keep their jobs and cognitive abilities.

Every person I know with this disease has trouble sticking to meds due to side effects, and not sticking to the meds and relapsing multiple times is probably one of the most important reasons that their condition regresses.

CDC defines dementia:

> Dementia is not a specific disease but is rather a general term for the impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities.

Article says:

> Long before people develop dementia, they often begin falling behind on mortgage payments, credit card bills and other financial obligations, new research shows.

> Credit scores among people who later develop dementia.....

Author is conflating the diagnosis of dementia with the development of dementia. It is not like a person wakes up one day with dementia. It progresses slowly. Early stage dementia is still dementia. I don't know what the formal requirements for diagnosis are but my guess is that that has to be a significant quality of life degradation for it to be diagnosed (or even for someone to be taken to see a doctor for that matter).

> New research shows that people who develop dementia often begin falling behind on bills years earlier.

I would say something like "New research shows that people in early stages of dementia often begin falling behind on bills years before it can be diagnosed."
