Does reading about a great man actually change you, or is the whole exercise just larping? Plutarch answers that question himself, in the Life of Pericles. He says that a statue or a poem can delight us without making us want to become the sculptor or the poet. But virtue works differently. The moment we admire a virtuous act, Plutarch argues, we already want to perform it ourselves.
Napoleon spent much of his youth, especially at military academy, reading Plutarch’s Lives. He read about Alexander and Caesar, searching the past for inspiration and lessons. His classmate Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne remembered the intensity of the habit: “Napoleon would run to the library, where he read with great eagerness books of history, particularly Polybius and Plutarch.” The Corsican patriot Pasquale Paoli went further, telling Napoleon plainly that Plutarch had made him who he was: “There is nothing modern in you, you are entirely out of Plutarch.” Napoleon read constantly, and most of what he read was biography of the greatest men of the ancient world. He treated Plutarch and the other classics as inspiration, then as manuals on power, strategy, and leadership.

SpaceX has introduced a new website for its AI training clusters in Tennessee/Mississippi. New info: • Tesla Megapacks will provide 3.3 GWh to Colossus 2, enough to power Memphis for two hours, making it America’s largest grid-connected battery pack. • SpaceX has invested millions of dollars in sound walls, silencers, and next-gen turbines with advanced quieting technologies. • Since joining the community in 2024, SpaceXAI is investing more than $90 billion in the region. Estimated 2026 tax revenue will be $60M+ • 7,500 local jobs supported • SpaceXAI is investing $360 million, at no cost to the city, in a clean water recycling plant. It is designed to process up to 10 million gallons of wastewater a day and would offset ~3.64 billion gallons a year from the Memphis Aquifer. • In Memphis, SpaceXAI is investing $35 million in a 150 MW substation to support MLGW and another $20 million in a second substation. Both come online at no cost to MLGW or homeowners. • Temporary power is coming off. Under an agreed order with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, all remaining temporary turbines must be removed by July 2027. SpaceXAI is already taking units offline and expects to complete removal well ahead of that deadline. Website: spacex.com/Mid-South

Everyone @X is extremely grateful for the support of @AGToddBlanche @AAGShumate and the entire @TheJusticeDept against European efforts to punish free speech and limit free discourse.
Under @AGToddBlanche, @TheJusticeDept will not tolerate European regulatory overreach to try and control American engines of innovation and economic growth.

The U.S. Department of Justice has released a statement backing Elon Musk and X in their legal fight against the European Commission. • The United States has formally asked to intervene in support of Elon and X before the EU’s General Court in Luxembourg. • Elon and X are seeking to overturn the European Commission’s December 2025 decision, which imposed a €120 million fine over alleged Digital Services Act violations. • The DOJ says the Commission engaged in “regulatory overreach” by extending its authority to American companies that were not operating within its jurisdiction. • It argues that the EU unfairly targeted Elon personally and implicated separate American companies he owns, even though they had no connection to the digital services involved. • The DOJ also raised concerns about extraterritorial jurisdiction and the Commission looking beyond X’s corporate structure to hold its shareholders responsible. • This is the first challenge to a DSA enforcement decision to reach the EU’s General Court. • The filing was prepared with the U.S. State Department because the outcome could affect other American technology companies and U.S.-EU relations. This is bigger than Elon or X. The United States is standing up against foreign regulatory overreach and defending American innovation.

Scaling of atoms is the neglected half of robotics. Most Western robotics groups scale bits and assume someone in the East will scale atoms.

My office @bot spontaneously started flagging @X Posts and news stories relevant to current work issues. Autonomous personalization and adaption to my workflow is cool, mimics a human assistant learning what I need. Useful for non-technical people doing normal office work.

On a similar note, my personal bot yesterday ordered professionally taken photos from one of those annoying websites, ordered two prints from some other site, and also ordered a frame---all with just a couple prompts. Pretty useful!

Rarely does the rhetoric from those trying to score cheap political points match reality. SpaceX in Memphis is a force multiplier for good
BREAKING: Shelby County Health Department data shows SpaceXAI is not even among the county’s top 20 air pollution sources. Memphis Councilwoman Yolanda, who represents the areas where SpaceXAI’s data centers are located, said she was “stunned” by the ranking and questioned where the misinformation was coming from. The official data tells a very different story from the false claims made by activists about SpaceXAI.

Texas football coach Steve Sarkisian's response when asked by @ThomasJonesAAS about playing in front of President Donald Trump: "This will actually be my second time. I’ve had one other opportunity to do that. The one thing that you have to be aware of when the president goes to any game is that anytime he enters the stadium, leaves the stadium or changes locations within the stadium, they cut all communication. So they cut your headsets. They cut the headsets to coaches. They cut headsets for coach-to-player communication. "So you have to have a plan for that, if and when it happens, and you get no warning. It just gets cut out. So you have to have a plan to adjust if and when he comes in the middle of the first quarter, leaves in the fourth quarter, or decides he’s got to use the restroom, whatever that looks like. You’ve got to be prepared to have no communication for a short amount of time.” orangebloods.com/

1. We will keep accelerating. Our AI efforts are only 3 years old, vs 6 and 10 years old for Anthropic and OpenAI. If our second derivative remains strong, SpaceX will reach pole position in about 6 months. 2. Once you far exceed the caliber of intelligence needed for a class of tasks, additional intelligence is pointless. You don’t need (and it would be cruel to put) Newton-level intelligence in your toaster! 3. Hardware is hard. Bringing massive compute online rapidly is incredibly difficult. SpaceX has demonstrated exceptional ability in this regard and will only get better.
