But Japan has long had few startups and a taboo against the defense industry, including severe restrictions on arms exports. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/07/japan/society/japan-investment-defense-startups/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #society #defense #defenseministry #startups #airkamuy #sdf #sanaetakaichi #constitution

🚨 Ex-OpenAI CTO Mira Murati just launched Tinker, a new service from Thinking Machines Lab.
Tinker strips AI training down to 4 simple functions — you focus on data + algorithms, it handles the GPU chaos.
Is this the Kubernetes moment for AI training?

🫧 Former Facebook Exec Warns AI Industry Is Entirely Built on "Vibes"
｢ some 33 US-based AI startups have raised over $100 million in 2025 alone. A handful of those funding rounds were in the billions. So far, none of them are even close to turning a profit on AI, something even the leading big tech giants can’t seem to figure out ｣

Hi everyone, figured it was time to write a new introduction. I’m John, and I live on the east coast of Canada. I’m a 50-something physicist who invented a laser technology to detect diseases using exhaled breath in addition to some holographic technologies. I love research but the best part of my career has been mentoring promising young scientists, engineers, and founders. I have a wide variety of interests that include music, art, science, health, photography, books, reading, video games, biking, hiking, gardening, and much more. I am a lifelong feminist and ally. When I came to Mastodon from Twitter in the fall of 2022, I had no idea that I was actually autistic. If you made it this far, please wave or say hello! #introduction #actuallyautistic #physics #science#Canada #startups #founder #mentoring #books
