Anduril is building America's largest shipyard since WWII. This space needs bold investment and decisive action.
In the 1790s, Baltimoore clippers were the fastest and most advanced sailing ships of their time. King George III didn't stand a chance. Time to run the same play.
Uh oh. Seeing multiple people I follow whose accounts have been taken over by bitcoin investment scams.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
What’s unique about AI is that we’re not just in an arms race against other people, we’re in an arms race against the technology itself openai.com/index/an-alien-mi…

I’ve noticed I’ve started to discriminate search results from unknown sources (websites, videos) by age with a premium for those more than a year old as a quick filter against AI slop

The bigger story is the complete IRGC force protection failure. A mile and a half from the entrance through the cays to the midget sub gantry. Even at 35 kts, that's more than two minutes. Those Corsairs looked like they were going much slower.

Yesterday, using multiple one-way attack surface drones, CENTCOM forces successfully struck a submarine and ship maintenance facility in Iran. Three Corsair unmanned surface vessels hit the port at Bandar Abbas Naval Base, marking the first time American forces have employed sea drones in combat operations. Last night’s strikes degraded Iran’s ability to continue attacking commercial shipping.

Ukrainian forces carried out a massive maritime strike in the Black/Azov Sea last night, hitting 28 vessels.
Ukrainian attack drones have now hit 76 ships over the last week, effectively shutting down the Sea of Azov to Russian surface traffic.

I spoke to a few of brigades about their FPV expenditure. One is using approximately 50 FPVs per day (it was 100 earlier this year in a more intense direction), another said up to 100, and another said 90-110. But they are primarily facing small infiltration groups. It can take 150 FPVs or more to stop a platoon to company-sized mechanized assault, and the demands would likely be higher in a non-positional fight.
The Army should treat drones like ammo, one officer said, estimating a brigade needs between 1,000 to 1,500 drones per week in sustained combat operations. defensenews.com/news/your-ar…
