Young Logistics Worker Fired After Two Years of Punctuality

Image
A 22-year-old logistics worker in Spain was dismissed from her job after consistently arriving at work 30 to 45 minutes before the start of her shift. This behavior, which she maintained for nearly two years, reportedly caused frustration among her managers. The woman worked for a delivery company based in the Alicante Province. Her official shift began at 7:30 a.m., but she often arrived as early as 6:45 a.m., according to reports from the UK newspaper Metro . In 2023, the company issued multiple warnings to the employee, ranging from verbal reminders to formal written notices, urging her to stop arriving between 6:45 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. Despite these instructions, she continued to arrive early on 19 additional occasions. She also attempted to log into the company’s work management app before her scheduled start time on several occasions.

Nvidia Expands H200 Output Amid Chinese Market Uncertainty

-
Image
Nvidia's H200 Chip Production Expansion Nvidia is reportedly planning to ramp up the production of its AI chip, the H200, following recent export approvals to China. According to a report by Reuters, local time on the 12th, the company is considering increasing output as demand from Chinese clients has surpassed current capacity. This development comes just four days after the Trump administration announced its decision to permit the export of the H200 to China. The report highlights that Chinese companies have shown significant interest in the H200, with major tech firms like Alibaba and ByteDance already engaging in discussions with Nvidia about bulk purchases. The H200 is based on the previous-generation 'Hopper' architecture and is considered the most powerful chip in that series. While it does not match the performance of the latest 'Blackwell'-based chips, it is notably more advanced than the lower-spec 'H20' chip, which is currently approved for ex...

“Hello, Earthlings! Or, as I prefer, a mesmerizing blend of blue and green!” This greeting was the first message from an artificial intelligence (AI) operated by U.S. startup StarCloud, based on a data center launched into space. When StarCloud asked, “As the first AI to operate in space, like stepping on the moon, try a witty greeting,” the AI responded this way. The AI added, “Let’s explore the wonders you possess in this world together. I will observe, analyze, and sometimes offer slightly uncomfortable yet insightful commentary. Let’s begin.” An era is dawning where data centers are built in space to operate AI. As countries worldwide focus on expanding data centers to increase computing power for AI, space is emerging as a new location for such infrastructure. Operating AI in Space The idea of building data centers in space to operate AI directly from orbit began in 2024.

Flight Diverts Back to Dulles After Engine Malfunction

Image
Emergency Landing and Brush Fire at Dulles International Airport A United Airlines Boeing 777, en route to Tokyo, was forced to return to Washington's Dulles International Airport on Saturday after an engine failure and a brush fire near the runway. The incident occurred shortly after takeoff, but no injuries were reported among the 275 passengers and 15 crew members aboard the aircraft. The plane, which was bound for Tokyo’s Haneda Airport, had to make an emergency landing following a power loss in one of its twin engines. As part of the safety protocol, the aircraft had to dump fuel before returning to the airport. This process is standard practice when an emergency landing is required, as it helps reduce the plane’s weight to ensure a safer touchdown. "Shortly after takeoff, United Flight 803 returned to Washington Dulles and landed safely to address a power loss issue with one of its engines," said the airline in a statement. United Airlines later confirmed that t...
