Comment Cooperate or Die (Score 2, Insightful) 42

rivals like AMD and Intel offer competitive specs on paper, but their software stacks have struggled with bugs, compatibility issues, and weak adoption. As a result, Nvidia has built an Apple-like moat around AI computing, leaving the industry dependent on its expensive hardware.

Nvidia's competitors need to work together to improve open-source software tooling and to standardize hardware interfaces, or else go the way of Commodore and Tandy.

Jensen Huang to college grads: "Run. Don't walk" toward AI

https://www.axios.com/2026/05/...

Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang told graduates at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh yesterday that demand for AI infrastructure is creating a "once-in-a-generation opportunity to reindustrialize America and restore the nation's capacity to build."

Why it matters: With many college grads fearing AI could obliterate their career dreams, Huang pointed to boundless opportunity as a "new industry is being born. A new era of science and discovery is beginning ... I cannot imagine a more exciting time to begin your life's work."

Nvidia, which makes AI chips, is the world's most valuable company. Huang told 5,800 recipients of undergraduate and graduate degrees that the AI buildout will require plumbers, electricians, ironworkers, and builders for chip factories, data centers and advanced manufacturing facilities.

"No generation has entered the world with more powerful tools â" or greater opportunities â" than you," he said. "We are all standing at the same starting line. This is your moment to help shape what comes next. So run. Don't walk."

"Every major technological revolution in history created fear alongside opportunity," Huang added. "When society engages technology openly, responsibly, and optimistically, we expand human potential far more than we diminish it."

I didn't dictate any specific throttling algorithm. You are stabbing a strawman.

That may not be how they breach them. It's an extra layer or device that may have an inadvertent security flaw. The more turtles in the stack, there more turtles there are to hack.

I'm not understanding why the traditional approach doesn't need throttling. Keep in mind a DOS attack is usually considered a smaller "sin" than a breach(es). If you allow too many retries, then the second sin is more likely. I see no third option*, it's either a DOS freeze or lots of retries.

If hackers find a design weakness in your company's preferred/required password-keeper, they can potentially hack them all. A company can allow multiple keeper brands, but then they either have to vet them all, or accept that some users will select a dodgy brand.

> I read your setup as a global throttle. If that's not what you meant...

* The best throttling and/or DOS defense strategy/algorithm is a more involve topic, but so far not a difference maker in what we are comparing.
