This doesn't add up, this bubble could burst any moment...
AI summary : OpenAI, a leading AI company, raised a record-breaking $40 billion in funding in late 2024, with $10 billion already received. However, the remaining $30 billion is contingent on OpenAI's conversion to a for-profit entity by the end of 2025. The funding round valued OpenAI at $300 billion, making it the most valuable private company in history. Despite this, OpenAI had revenues of only $4 billion in 2024, leading to a significant gap between revenue and valuation. The company has 20 million paying subscribers and over 500 million weekly active users. The funding round also revealed that OpenAI has a deficit of $5 billion in 2024 and expects its 2025 revenue to triple to $12.7 billion. However, it is unclear how OpenAI plans to achieve this revenue growth, as it lost money on every user in 2024. The company's costs are also increasing dramatically, with OpenAI projected to spend $13 billion on compute with Microsoft alone in 2025, nearly tripling what it spent in total in 2024. OpenAI also has a five-year, $12 billion compute deal with CoreWeave, with payments starting in October 2025. The company's expansion is dependent on two unproven startups, CoreScientific and Crusoe, which have never built an AI data center. OpenAI's future and the future of the generative AI industry are closely tied to OpenAI's ability to meet its financial and compute requirements.

Since previous release 0.6.0, we added serveral improvements to Plume. You can try them by checking out latest main
branch or pulling a docker image plumeorg/plume:latest
. Here are some of them!
According to @ahangarha, it's natural to read code blocks left-to-right in right-to-left documents in Persian. @FDB_hiroshima added dir="auto"
HTML attribute to make it work.
This improvement is applied to this fediverse.blog instance.
By an issue by @pullopen, I found Chinese translations were not embedded into Plume binary. I added translations for languages below:
Though some langs don't have translations actually, I added all langs registered on Crowdin, a translation platform we use.
You can sometimes neither like nor boost articles, nor follow someone on remote instances now. This happen when target article's title or writer's name includes non-ASCII characters. This problem will be fixed in the next release.
This fix is applied to this fediverse.blog instance.
@marek-lach fixed an issue that menu is not opened even though you tap the menu icon.
I have neither iPhone, iPad nor macOS. I'm so glad if you try it and send feedbacks, though surely I will test it before next release (should be 0.6.1 or 0.7.0).
This was a long time refactoring. Riker is an actor system library for Rust. By actor model, we can get simple perspective of system archtecture keeping it easy to write asynchronous tasks. This should make Plume more stable and performant.
@meena repeated trial & error many times, and eventually wrote a design doc. That's a great work. Thank you.
@dr-bonez sended a pull request to introduce proxy support and it was merged. You can run Plume and make it federate with the fediverse behind a proxy server.
I added tracing
logging library. I intend to use it for investigation of federation problems in the near future. We are often reported federation issues. Fixing it is so hard if we cannot reproduce the problem on our development environment. At that time, we need record logs on production environment, and tracing
should be a fundamental to help us well.
This is not our improvement, but what @pwFoo is attempting. Musl is a alternate libc for static link. By building Plume with it, you can get more portable binary and run Plume on variuos machines including Alpine Linux. See the issue if you're interested in it.
We updated Rust version to nightly-2021-01-15
.
Some day suddenly building Docker image on Docker hub failed. To fix it, we need to upgrade some crates and update Rust version. If you build Plume from source code, newer Rust will be donwloaded automatically according to rust-toolchain
file.
I create the 0.7.0 milestone on our Gitea instance and added some issues there. Those are not promises but useful for me to get concentrated on current task without keeping other tasks in my mind. In addition, I think some of you have wanted to know what is being developed now, and the milestone provides the information.
I started adding edit links to the site of article title in home and blog pages.
Now you need click links three times to reach to draft's edit page:
This improvement reduce it:
or,
I'm sure it's useful to put edit links in dashboard and blog pages. But I'm not sure whether putting them in home page is nice. Feedbacks are welcome!
Hi, would be nice to have a static build without dependencies. I'm build on alpine which fails. Have anyone finished a musl based static build of plume?Gitea: Git with a cup of tea

... there are several reasons for cheering up the decline in the stock market: it reduces wealth inequality by obliterating the wealth at the very top; it does not affect the incomes of most people (60% of Americans and 90-95% of the people in the world); and among those who are affected, it is la crème de la crème who lose the most and thus they are de facto taxed (a policy which otherwise is difficult to implement).

“Injustice is not anonymous, it has a name and an address”
Bertolt Brecht
In the early morning hours of June 27th [2024] we attacked the house and the police guard of the President of the Supreme Court, Ioanna Klapa, in the Papagos area. That summer evening found the cop who happened to be on duty instead of carelessly gazing at Instagram photos or playing slots (in earlier watches this seemed to be how those on duty spent their time) screaming from the Molotov cocktails that burned him and then being rushed to the emergency room by his colleagues, badly injured. And Klapa, instead of sleeping, fearfully putting out the fire in the entrance and garden of her house.
But why did we choose to attack Klapa while her house was being guarded?
First of all, it was an operational choice with three political considerations. It was not a matter of mere desire or convenience but of collective recognition of the need to attack, yes, using the element of surprise, but on a guarded target. In a field where, in theory, immediate engagement reflexes have been designed and provided for by the police guard to protect the high profile person. In this area there is not room for much analysis. Their preparedness and the proud spirit of the Greek police corps went out the window. Although their operational planning was disgraced, we, to tell the truth, acknowledge that we did not achieve anything particularly great. Life the next day went on as usual, a world of squalor and rot remained the same and the violence of apathy, misery and deadlock still lingers. We had no illusions that we would achieve the most decisive blow to the mechanisms of bourgeois justice and the police. To be a substantially dangerous pole in the social war, however, you have to sharpen the violent responses quantitatively and qualitatively. This is a finding that is eloquently described even by renowned academics and in particular by the jurist Manoledakis: “The overthrow of a political power, and especially today when the state has a perfected huge mechanism for eliminating its opponents, cannot be done on paper or with wishful thinking. In order for the ‘political criminal’ to reach his goal, he must willingly or unwillingly violate a multitude of legal value so that his crime always appears complex. The state is a legal value entangled with other legal values (human lives, personal freedoms, facilities, services, etc.). To reach it you have to go through these values”. So we recognized the importance of such an action and achieved a goal that was both realistic and decisive. To wound their confidence and arrogance, to wound the security they feel in the quiet of their homes and their service cars. We have succeeded, and literally. The burn scars of the security guard will be there to remind him and his colleagues when they notice them that they are in fact vulnerable no matter how much they may think otherwise.
Here lies the second aspect of the rationale behind our attack and the conditions under which it was carried out. The central outcome of our operational planning was to completely destroy the service vehicle and injure the cop, which is what happened. If to some ears this sounds too violent and alienating to their humanistic, pea-brained little minds, then we are speaking and addressing those who read this text and either consciously and with clear political and ideological commitment advocate revolutionary violence by all means or those who instinctively rejoiced and chuckled when they heard the news of a cop being injured that day. To all of them we say that this act was another contribution to the feud we have with the bollocks of the Hellenic Police. We owe this feud and its continuation to our dead. It is a deep and conscious choice with the first and foremost weapon being the determination that defines the need to avenge our dead.
“People do not judge like courts; they do not pass sentence, they throw thunderbolts; they do not condemn kings, they throw them into the void.”
Maximilian Robespierre
It is these dead people who directed us that night to examine Klapa and – instead of the position of the all-powerful judge as she is accustomed to have – to put her in the position of the guilty party. Klapa deliberately repeatedly and by being in an appointed office has been covering up for two years from her position as President of the Supreme Court the government’s responsibility for the murder of 57 people in Tempi. We found Klapa guilty of covering up and tampering with the traces left by the New Democracy killers. We found this scum guilty for not being ashamed to even take on the relatives of the victims. So we looked at her record as President of the Supreme Court and judged that the response of fire and the terror of an attack where her family comfort is housed is the very minimum she truly deserves. We do not expect every Klapa and every Adilini along with Bakaimi to deliver any justice. Just mentioning it makes us laugh. But we want to say one or two things to them. We know very well that among the worst things you can say to a judge and accuse him of is that he is controlled by political power. It gives them an allergy. They have nothing more sacred than maintaining the veneer of the shop window of the civil justice system as “independent”. Since it is not so unlikely that this text will fall into Klapa’s hands – after all, it concerns her – we say to her something that even the most ignorant (unless of course she belongs to the party apparatus and the core of the New Democracy) now believes: you right-wing tsarina, at least try to keep up appearances when you protect the boss who appointed you and don’t lick the Prime Minister’s ass so much. And one more thing, to the relatives of the victims – of the crime committed by those you so zealously protect – you’re going to make a toubeki*. Save the suggestions because as you saw your guarding wasn’t effective enough and as you remember we know where your house falls.
The duty to defend the memory of our dead cannot stop at a violent gesture, at a single attack. We must create at every opportunity the conditions that will allow a direct and dynamic response to the demagogues of our thoughts and dreams and the usurpers of our lives. The same applies, of course, to those who protect them. The conditions that we must take advantage of also arise from mass violent outbursts such as that of 28 February. Diffuse groups and individuals clashed that day, putting the mentality of acts of revenge for the murder of 57 people in Tempe at the forefront. Any similar opportunity must not be allowed to go to waste. Not with the logic of a fetishistic violent vision and a simple clean-up. Too many years of absence of mass aggressive clashes and the few exceptions in between have damaged the reflexes of the militant minorities and have left behind a conspiratorial logic in many parts of the people who take to the streets. From the righteousness of the December rioters and the mass militant stubbornness of 2010-2012, we have moved on to insatiable securitarianism and the baptism of provocative cops with an obsession that is truly impressive. Most people are more or less aware of the responsibilities of the left, let alone the KKE [Greek Communist Party], for this provocative propaganda. On top of that, the huge crowds on 28 February ensure the presence of many ignorant people about what violent mass clashes at central gatherings signify and their necessity. It can only cause laughter that all of them, at the sight of incidents in other countries around the world, pull out of the quiver of the know-it-all, the shouting at the apathetic new Greek who no longer resists. Only the constant and repeated confrontational presence will answer all these sputtering people. Let us have no illusions that all this number of people will read the analyses of the space on provocateurism. Let’s answer them in the street with our unyielding and determined intention to attack cops, capitalist targets and state property. If they don’t understand words, let’s give it to them in words. In the general strike on 9 April the conflict minorities must, if necessary, respond forcefully to possible challenges and any threat to their security by sputtering vigilantes of social peace.
KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS ALWAYS PRESENT
“What does it matter if death finds us? What matters is that our cry will be heard and another hand will be by our side to take our weapon and other rebels will rise up to catch the song, to hear the new cry of war and revolution.”
We dedicate this phrase of Che Guevara and its meanings to the dead urban guerrilla Kyriakos Xymitiris. We don’t need to talk about Kyriakos. His choices have spoken. The militant path he took was marked with signs of dedication, unadulterated faith and commitment to the struggle for the HOPE he so believed in. At noon on the 31st of October, Kyriakos Xymitiris left too early after a device explosion on Arcadia Street. But the signs that led him among the cyclones of a reality that struggles to impose apathy and starkism, those roads that Kyriakos opened with the stubbornness and passion of an armed rebel, those signs will be followed by all of us who will commemorate his passage into “illegality” along with the other outlaws Lambros Fountas, Michalis Prekas, Christoforos Marinos, Christos Tsouchouvis and Christos Kassimis. We will keep those streets bright because Kyriakos’ own life and his sacrifice prove so thunderously and blatantly that people who love the struggle for freedom and life are willing to risk it without a second thought. To give it totally to the revolutionary cause.

DN Note
*Τουμπεκί (Turkish: tömbeki) is the tobacco used in ναργιλέ, nargilé (shisha, hookah). In coffee houses until the interwar period, nargilé was widespread. There are various interpretations of the origin of the expression “κάνε τουμπεκί, kane tombeki”, which metaphorically means “shut up”, “shut it up”. The nargilé was prepared by the “tömbeki”, nargilé maker, of the coffee houses, and because they would catch up on the conversation and take a long time to offer it to the customer, the customer would in turn shout: “Kane tombeki”, meaning stop the conversations and make the tobacco.

in reply to Emmanuel Florac • • •Comme toujours, on oublie les problèmes principaux :
les SMR (les "petits" réacteurs nucléaires modulaires), sont des produits jetables, la plupart ne prévoient pas qu'on puisse les réalimenter...
il y a donc multiplication des déchets et donc du risque de gestion sur 150 000 ans (des durées tellement longues que personne ne sait comment faire)
Par ailleurs, ils peuvent être mobiles et donc se retrouver dans des villes ou des lieux fortement habités avec le risque d'accident catastrophique qui correspond surtout que leur nombre sera démultiplié.
actuellement la France à 19 sites (pour 57 réacteurs), on parle avec les SMR de milliers de sites... de la folie !
quand on dit que les accidents n'auront "pas la même échelle" c'est oublier cette multiplication des sites, de la gestions par du personnel moins spécialisé, du contrôle plus difficile sur des sites privés
