Locus Alpha (@TheLocusAlpha) reportedNvidia Beat for the 15th Straight Quarter. The Week of Fear Was the Predictable Part The Setup Nvidia reported after the close on August 26. Revenue: $96.22 billion. Adjusted earnings: $2.22 a share. The Street wanted about $91.85 billion and $2.10. It beat on both, the 15th consecutive quarter above expectations. Then the guide. Third-quarter revenue of $108 billion, plus or minus 2%, against a $104.19 billion estimate. Next fiscal year growing about 70%, roughly $100 billion more than analysts had modeled. An expanded Amazon Web Services partnership on top. Shares reversed after hours, up more than 4%. Micron, sold all week, rose more than 3% after hours. Now rewind four days. Options priced a 5.4% move in either direction, about $280 billion of value on a coin flip. Micron fell 6% to open the week. The Nasdaq 100 dropped around 1% on Monday. Chip names sold in sympathy while the AI trade braced for the number to break it. The number didn't break anything. It printed $96.22 billion and the fear was gone by morning. The Lesson Fear and greed are enemies. The system is the weapon. The crowd didn't trade Nvidia's results last week. It traded how it felt before them. Scared Monday through Wednesday. Greedy four hours after the bell. Same script, 15 quarters running. That's the part nobody writes down. The number changes every quarter. The crowd's script doesn't. Fear into the print, greed out of it. The result barely moves the emotion. A beat gets bought, a miss gets bought harder because the fear got oversold. The cycle is the most reliable thing about this trade. So who pays. The trader who sold into Monday's fear sold the bottom of the panic. The trader who now chases the gap buys the top of the relief. Both were trading the crowd. Neither was trading the company. The company printed $96.22 billion and guided 70% growth, and neither number needed any of the emotion wrapped around them. You can't predict the number. The fear before and the greed after are close to a given. The mood runs on schedule. The print doesn't. That is where a system finds its edge. A swing trader sits through this cycle every quarter. The temptation is to do something, because it feels like the big moment. But the print resolves overnight and the gap opens without you. The decision that actually matters was made days earlier: your level, your size, your stop. The 15th straight beat is not an event to react to. It's a reminder that you already knew the script. The Rule Trade where you are in the cycle, not the narrative in front of you. Before any binary event, ask one question. Is the crowd already scared, or already greedy? A week of selling on a rumor means the fear is mostly priced. A gap up on the number means the greed is mostly priced too. Concrete version: map your levels before either extreme. If you want a chip name, write the price you'd buy it at before the panic starts, and only take it if price gets there and stops falling. Not because the fear feels right. Because price confirmed a level you picked cold. If you want to sell into the gap, write the level where the chase stalls, and act only if price gets there and fails. Write the level first. Then act when price confirms it. If you can't say whether the crowd is scared or greedy before you click, you're about to trade a mood. And size for the move. A 5.4% implied move means a 1% stop is noise and a full position is too big. Widen the stop, cut the size, decide both before the bell. The number prints and the gap does what it does. Your only job is to be standing at the level you picked, with the size you already decided. What the System Does A rules-based system treats the earnings number as one input and the crowd's position as another. It reads the implied move before the print and sizes for it, wider stops and smaller size. It doesn't guess whether the company beats. It models what the panic and the euphoria do on the other side, because that part repeats. So the system has a defined response for the gap up, the gap down, and the no-move. It doesn't short the fear into the print and it doesn't chase the greed after it. It waits for price to reach a level it already mapped, then acts. The number prints and the system follows the plan it wrote before the bell. Not investment advice. Trading involves risk.

Haley Bryant 💛 (@haleymbryant) reportedearlier this year, i backed a team with a big platform vision for a market and user behavior that doesn't exist yet. to figure out where to start, they mapped every constraint holding the market back and ran a bunch of experiments. they landed on one high-friction bottleneck involving 6+ intermediaries. they're now attacking the problem from a direction that feels so far removed from the original thesis it could be a different company. but zoom out far enough and you can see how one domino sets off a multi-chain reaction. a couple years ago i'd have called this unfocused or overbuilt. now i think the market is going to reward founders who can operate inside massively complex systems and still produce something that feels simple and delightful to the end customer. this isn't new. amazon built aws to solve its own infrastructure problem. spacex built starlink to fund mars. it just used to take that kind of scale and capital to hold that much complexity and still ship something usable. now a team of ten can. the next generation of great startups may look like rube goldberg machines on the inside, and feel effortless to end users outside.

Dian (@Dian5) reported@AmazonHelp I’ve told you more than once that I’m having great difficulty having my package delivery instructions followed. I have been enjoying the services of Amazon Fresh l, who HAS been following my delivery instructions, for months without a problem. I was expecting a delivery of ordered items today, but instead, I find out, Amazon cannot even locate my address!!!!! What the heck is going on?!?!🤬

Chaz Wargnier ♨️ (@DataChaz) reportedLet's take @Snowflake as an example. Working there gave me a clear view of the data problems hiding behind most ambitious AI roadmaps. Because Snowflake is natively deployed on AWS and available through the AWS Marketplace, it fits right into a modern stack. If you are building an AI feature, a sensible pattern looks like this: > Isolated customer events land securely in Amazon S3 from day one > Snowflake transforms raw data into a governed, usable layer > Flexible Amazon ECS compute routes only approved context to Amazon Bedrock Getting this pipeline right early means less time fixing data leaks and more time shipping AI features ↓

Ron Mason (@CosmicNeighbrs) reported@AmazonHelp This has now been unresolved since June 2—nearly 3 months. Amazon has acknowledged in writing that my Same-Day Delivery problem is address-specific, not an account, product or order issue. I’ve been told repeatedly it was escalated and being worked on, including by your Social Media Resolution team. Then communication stopped. Meanwhile, neighboring homes continue receiving Amazon Same-Day/Flex deliveries. I need this escalated beyond standard support to someone who can actually investigate and resolve the address eligibility issue. Please contact me privately for the existing case details.

Les Bourne (@bourne_les) reported@Suiz2024 @doomernat22 Don't play the fool. Lenin was wrong plain and simple. His overarching point was that capital and output, as capitalism matured, concentrated in a few players. While it is true that businesses owing to M&A and efficiency building tend to concentrate (Baran & Sweezy wrote extensively on the subject and they were wrong too) during certain technologically slow eras, at other times, like today, capital deconcentrates. As proof tell me where were the biggest corporations today, say, a mere two decades ago: Where were Google, Amazon, Apple, Tesla, Nvidia, etc. they did not even exist or were tiny companies. These are all brand new players and are the largest ones around. Where is all the concentration Lenin predicted. It does not exist.

Squall Loire (@squall_loire) reported@saga2K9 @TwitchSupport Indeed it's down to AWS, but they should still be able to handle this kind of surge in demand. They should at least be able to adapt to it in a reasonable timeframe, especially as Amazon owns both Twitch and AWS.

Robert Farrington (@rrobfarrington) reportedEnd of an era. I saw Amazon Mechanical Turk is shutting down on September 30th. That was one of the very first online side hustles I ever did. I remember doing silly little tasks while sitting in college classes and making like $20 a class.

Adam Van Buskirk (@AHVanBuskirk) reportedOne reason I am big doubter on "resources running out" narratives is that there are vast tiers of efficiency that 1st world countries don't even bother with (or don't allow) simply because we are flush with energy. Most passenger traffic and much light freight could shift to e-bikes or trikes with an instant 10x reduction in net energy use, and industrial society would go on basically as normal. This is same dynamic applies to literally everything. For instance, A/C set at perhaps 80 or even 85 eliminates actual medical heat distress, a $15 jacket from amazon would allow heating thermostats to go from 75 to 55, etc. Society doesn't actually go suddenly from crew-cab pickups as daily transportation and houses in AZ kept at 62 all summer to "dying in the dark." There are endless step down levels IF energy actually becomes scarce at any point, which it never seems to do.

Kamil Kwapisz (@kamilkwapiszpl) reportedOpenAI wants to be judged on more than model quality now. This week's Jalapeño benchmark release is the clearest signal of that yet. > 1.5x to 1.9x more throughput per watt across GPT-OSS 120B, DeepSeek R1, and Kimi K2.5. > End-to-end latency down 1.7x to 3.6x. > up to 4.1x faster than the Nvidia Blackwell system they benchmarked against (wow) Most coverage frames this as OpenAI versus Nvidia. The bigger picture is who else already built this. Google has run its own TPUs since 2015 and now handles roughly a quarter of the world's AI compute outside Nvidia entirely. Amazon has shipped over a million Trainium chips. Microsoft has Maia. Meta has MTIA. OpenAI is actually late to custom silicon among the big labs, not early. For Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, building their own chips was a cloud margin play from the start, since they sell compute to everyone else too. For OpenAI, this reads more like survival math. Compute is their single biggest cost line, and every dollar spent on Nvidia GPUs is a dollar not going toward their own margin. OpenAI increasingly frames this as compute scarcity, not model quality, being the real ceiling on their growth. OpenAI isn't walking away from Nvidia, and it's not trying to become the next Nvidia either. They're still buying enormous volumes of Nvidia GPUs. Jalapeño isn't even for sale. OpenAI says internal demand is so high it can't imagine selling the chip to anyone else. The competition with Nvidia here is about needing to buy less from them. This is the conversation I keep having with SaaS companies I work with. The AI competition everyone watches is model versus model, OpenAI versus Anthropic versus Google. The competition that actually decides who's still standing in three years is who controls their own compute economics.

Justin Woll (@RealJustinWoll) reportedAn asset that's 80% right doesn't cost you 20%. That's the part that's easy to miss about creative, pages, and store setup. A landing page that's nearly there doesn't lose you a fifth of your sales once. It loses you a slice of every visitor it will ever see, and you paid full price to send every one of them there. Same with a video that almost holds attention. Same with a theme that mostly converts. The gap doesn't sit still, it compounds against every dollar you push through it for as long as it's live. Which is why the assets are worth getting right early rather than fixing on the fourth pass. And to be clear about why they so often don't get built that way, it has nothing to do with the person building them. Producing professional video creative, landing pages, ad copy, targeting, and a properly configured store from scratch, while simultaneously learning the business and running it, is genuinely one of the hardest ways to do this. Most people are building the skill and depending on the skill in the same week. That's not a shortcoming, it's just a difficult position to execute from. That's exactly what Beyond Creatives is for. It's our in-house team, and they build your assets to the same 8-figure standard the entire BSF system runs on. Not a freelancer interpreting a brief. The same framework, executed by the people who use it every day across hundreds of stores. Here's the full menu. Product Research - We locate products for you, every one approved by Justin himself, with multi-platform verification of demand and market size across Amazon, YouTube, AliExpress and Google Trends. The same process behind well over 8 figures in student sales. Landing Page Copy - Pitch paragraphs, unique benefits, a relatable story and a reinforcing conclusion, written to the BSF method. Students using these pages consistently hit add-to-cart rates above 10%. Landing Page Creation - The entire page built and uploaded live. Emotional story, formatted testimonials, the pitch, media section and product images, all in the proven framework. Video and Thumbnail - Ad creative built to the BSF structure. Students see CPMs 3x lower than they get from other agencies or their own VAs, and more than double the clickthrough rate. Ad Copy - Attention-grabbing first line, product pitch, benefit bullets and accolade sentence, systematized so you can test dozens of products without ever waiting on copy. Targeting Sheet - 11 separate audiences per sheet, each one a different angle into the same market, built on the algorithmic targeting method behind millions in student sales. Facebook Pixel Setup - Correct technical implementation, so every decision you make from day one is built on data that's actually accurate. BSF Store Theme Setup - Our custom Shopify theme imported and configured for perceived value, conversion rate, AOV, and speed. Optional add-on to configure all your store pages and images as well. OCU Funnel - One-click upsell funnels built out, with margins, customer experience and technical logistics handled, so your AOV climbs without any additional ad spend. One Product Store Setup - When you've got a proven winner and you're ready to double down, a focused single-product store built to maximize conversion rate and AOV on it. Custom Videos, Scripts and Commercials - Custom scripts, voiceover, UGC testimonials, or something built from scratch, from the team that's produced work with Shark Tank companies, NFL quarterbacks and 9-figure global brands. DFY Start To Finish - The whole thing. A full done-for-you store with every asset built, suppliers connected, funnels live, and the store handed to you ready to run. The students who move fastest aren't the ones who do the most themselves. They're the ones who put their own hours where their judgment matters, and let a team that's built this hundreds of times handle the production. - Justin Woll #ecom #shopify #dtc
