We tracked like 17 million train arrivals last year to see where delays happen, and this is the result 🗺️

💉 💉 COVID / Grippe Double-Whammy: Check ✅

Mein Hausarzt hat extra ein neues "Fässchen" für mich aufgemacht - obwohl für heute keiner weiter zum Impfen angemeldet war.

Wenn Ihr also in Berlin unterwegs seid und noch keinen Schutz für die Feiertage habt, holt Euch doch einen Schuss bei der Praxis am Kleistpark!

(Boosts welcome, hihi)

May's tech-hype predictions for 2026 onwards:
- The month after major public pensions and governments buy huge stakes in the AI companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc), the US AI bubble will start crashing. This will happen in 2026.

- At this point, free access to LLMs will go away. Corporate LLMs will raise their prices by at least 100x to make up for the loss in users and casual revenue.

- Unfortunately, this^ means AI coding /marketing wouldn't go away. It'd just be far, far more expensive and require deeper approvals. Your boss will have AI and you won't be able to summarize it.

- China and the rest of BRICS will take over the free AI market because they can. Perfect opportunity for propaganda and cyber warfare here.

- Many software products that wrap base commercial models will see their operating costs skyrocket. They'll basically need to rip it all out, or embed a cheaper model.

- Essentially, companies who haven't built out a proper data/AI team will fail unless their base non-AI product is still relevant.

- Small companies will die when they fail to transition out of this mess. There will be a wholesale buyout, like the dot com crash. This means deeper consolidation at the FAANG level.

- We've had essentially an entire generation of juniors who had a cheap/free magical crutch for years. How will you train people to read, write and code again across every industry?

- The costs of cloud services will also skyrocket, since they need to pay off their bullshit AI hardware/data centre investments. We may see a return to on-prem/hybrid IT. (This will be REALLY interesting for how software evolves from the current SaaS model.)

- Some people will start hyping quantum, but we're at least 2+ hype cycles away from that.

- (This one's a wild guess.) The next hype cycle is probably going to be in hardware/wearables/physical space, but that's ridiculously expensive to get into. It'll basically just be marketing.

- The techbro doomers will claim to have predicted this the whole time. They'll have more than enough money to start the next hype cycle for the next round of VC/PE hot potato.

- Western governments are still going to try to implement "AI" even after the crash and the prices go up.
