OpenAI’s operating results in 2025

Revenue: $13.07B
Total Costs and Expenses: $34B
Loss from Operations: -$20.92B

Q1 2026 they grew to $5.7B in revenue and a -$7B operating loss.

Their losses are scaling with revenue which is a bad pattern. The question is if spending will slow or they can pivot to raising prices.

FEBO in Almere struikelt over de Bibob procedure - Het BetaBlog

In de regio Amsterdam is de snackbar keten FEBO een begrip. Dat voor de vestiging in Almere in 2022 twee vergunningen zijn ingetrokken door de Bibob procedure zal nagenoeg niet bekend zijn. Net als de eerder genoemde horeca zaak volgt een lange procedure die uiteindelijk [...]

"Any increase in European sovereignty will lead to a loss of business for US big tech, and they know this. They do not come to your event to help Europe lower their profits. They come to raise doubts or with dubious attempts to be “part of the solution”.

@harld jij vandaag ook in #010?

just found out the vatican used to name their nameservers after the archangels, having had `michael.vatican.va`, `gabriel.vatican.va` and `raphael.vatican.va`; as well as having other servers named after the apostles

this goes kinda hard as a naming scheme, i can't even lie

W Social, Public Institutions and the Theater of European Digital Sovereignty

European public institutions are betting big on digital sovereignty and open source software. And yet they recently moved their Bluesky accounts to W Social, a private, for profit network owned by Swedish entrepreneurs that has quietly gone closed-source.
