The Capex Cut

On Thursday, April 23, Meta cut 8,000 jobs and Microsoft offered buyouts to roughly 8,750 more. Both cited AI. Neither was losing money. Microsoft’s program is the first voluntary buyout in its 51-year history, eligibility set by a “rule of 70” — age plus tenure must reach seventy, capped at senior director level, with notifications going out May 7. Meta’s chief people officer Janelle Gale told staff in a memo obtained by Bloomberg that the cuts are “to offset the other investments we’re making.” Severance is 16 weeks plus two per year of service; effective date May 20. The company is also closing 6,000 unfilled roles, removing 14,000 headcount positions from its 2026 plan.

Сколько стоит внедрить AI？Отвечаем с LCOAI

Компании во многих отраслях переходят от AI-экспериментов к масштабным внедрениям, сталкиваясь с трудностями в оценке сопутствующих издержек. Традиционные фин.модели не всегда отражают экономическую сложность развертывания и сопровождения AI решений, что приводит к заблуждениям в сравнении альтернативных вариантов решений. В сегодняшней статье разберем LCOAI - адаптированный для AI подход к оценке стоимости владения цифровым продуктом - и ответим на вопрос "Сколько же стоит внедрить этот ваш ИИ?“.

The article is a bit skimpy on details and the curves really simplistic – well it's log scale – but the conclusion I can see, even if fusion power plants would work, they probably won't be cost effective soon.

Fusion power unlikely to become competitive - Nature Energy

While nuclear fusion power is often hailed as a future source of abundant, clean energy, current dominant fusion designs, magnetic and laser inertial, are unlikely to become competitive due to their expected low experience rates. Accordingly, policymakers should not rely on, or fund, fusion power as a core pillar of future clean energy systems unless designs with different characteristics are developed.

Expanding our #S3:

- #seaweedfs: 3 masters, 3 filers and 6 volume servers across 2 zones (datacenters)
- #garage: 2 different clusters, one of that consists of 6 nodes across 3 zones, the other is just 3 nodes in single zone.

But we still use S3 from cloud providers (mostly for archiving), because those are more flexible and cheaper on #capex.
