NVIDIA Throws a Billion Damn Dollars Into the Pool (Side)

So apparently, NVIDIA, those silicon-slinging bastards who can’t keep their GPUs in stock for more than ten bloody seconds, decided they haven’t been burning enough cash. Now they’re reportedly chucking *up to a billion f***ing dollars* into some AI startup called Poolside. Yeah, Poolside – because nothing screams “serious tech investment” like the name of a bloody resort cabana.

The idea, apparently, is that these Poolside dreamers are working on some kind of “AI coding assistant” — which, surprise surprise, will write your code for you. Because clearly the problem with tech right now isn’t clueless developers or feature creep, no no — it’s that people aren’t writing *enough* half-baked code fast enough. So NVIDIA shows up with their big GPU wallet swinging and says, “Here, take a billion and make us an AI that can replace the interns.” Bloody marvelous.

Of course, this makes perfect sense for NVIDIA. They’ve already got their claws in every AI project under the sun — might as well throw some cash into something that’ll make everyone even more dependent on their graphics cards. It’s like watching a dragon sit on a pile of gold, light a cigar with a $100 bill, and then buy another f***ing gold mine for fun.

So yeah — NVIDIA’s out here casually adding another billion to the AI hype inferno, and everyone’s pretending it’s all going to revolutionize software development instead of helping execs buy their next goddamn yacht. Pass the aspirin and a stiff drink, because this circus isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

Reminds me of the time the office manager thought “the cloud” was a physical thing and tried to ask me where it was stored. I told her it was right next to the f***ing rainbow factory — she didn’t get it. Some people really shouldn’t be allowed near technology at all.
