[01:09:46] S2: Dude, people are gonna realize that old supermarkets can be turned into saunas. Okay. And start the conversion process. [01:09:55] S1: Potentially. Potentially. I think it's time to get an icebox, get the get the ice ice man coming and delivering with the big tongs. Time for that. In Ireland, 13 super value stores were affected. In Belgium, a butcher reported that hackers raised his refrigerators to 64 degrees. Again, very odd that, the the the goal seems to be just to cause damage. Ketrian Eggers, spokesperson for Belgium's Center for Cybersecurity, says no one knows who is behind these attacks and that we may never know since no one has demanded a ransom. There's growing suspicion that the goal is simply to cause damage rather than make money. Strategy risks. Melissa Chen thinks the rise of these kinds of attacks is good reason to hold on to older appliances that aren't connected to the Internet. Interesting. [01:10:42] S2: In other news, Apple and Palantir reporting earnings today. We really want Apple to, we really want Apple to crush. Yes. Otherwise, I think it's... It's been rough.... Seen a lot of red out here. It's rough. After that... Yeah. And and Palantir will be an interesting signal as well just Yeah. From an infusion standpoint. [01:11:04] S1: Yeah. [01:11:05] S2: More news. Mark Walter is exploring selling Cadillac f one at a $3,000,000,000 valuation. [01:11:12] S1: Interesting.

[01:11:13] S2: Less than two months ago, TWG said it was not considering exiting its stake in the team. This is from Sportico. [01:11:22] S1: Wonder how I wonder how the business is doing. We heard Toto Wolff on Cheeky Pint talking to John Coogan about the economics of the Mercedes [01:11:30] S2: F1 team. Like that he just has, like, an amazing business. Yeah. But he was, like, very realistic about, like... He he was basically saying, like, I'm being valued on my cash flows [01:11:39] S1: Yes. [01:11:39] S2: More than hype. [01:11:40] S1: Yes. It's not a trophy asset like an NBA team, like an NFL team, like some of the other teams that trade where they're not really generating a lot of cash flow, [01:11:48] S2: but Yeah. It's interesting because with a with a team, there's so much there's so much demand from somebody who's like, I live in LA, and I wanna own the Lakers. Right? Or, like, I live in New York, and I wanna own x y z team. With f one, it's like your team is just going all over the world all the And so you really have to, one, wanna go to a lot of races. [01:12:09] S1: Or have business all over the world potentially and be more, more global. Yeah. Yeah. It it almost feels like, if you want to go really big into f one, like, you know, partnering with Las Vegas in some way or Miami. And and and if you're a Miami [01:12:26] S2: Yeah. [01:12:27] S1: You know, business person, you you would just want to make sure that you're... You wanna buy the heat and then also participate when Or just do

[01:12:27] S1: You know, business person, you you would just want to make sure that you're... You wanna buy the heat and then also participate when Or just do [01:12:34] S2: Do what George Russell did, which is, you know, become a big become a big part of AMG and Yeah. And then, you know, deliver the world's youngest world champion. Yes. Incredible. Yesterday, really Kimi. Really amazing. [01:12:48] S1: So good. And early too. We're still early in the season, so great to see. Northwood Northwood is on an absolute tear. Northwood space, we've had Bridget on the show multiple times at this point. She's back raising $375,000,000 at a $2,000,000,000 valuation, co led by a 16 and DFJ Growth. Just less less than nine months after series b, Northwood says this round of funding will be used for accelerating delivery on existing contracts, talent acquisitions, the build out of Northwood's ground... Global ground network for commercial US government and allied space missions. And we've seen, just, yeah, just incredible. It it was a very contrarian move. It's not exactly like a bet against Elon, but it's it's it's standing... It's expecting that the other players will be taken seriously, that there will be, you know, a way to either work with SpaceX ultimately or work with all the other partners who want to have a separate backbone. So, it was just like the right idea at the right time, great execution, and, yeah, what what what an absolute run. What else is in

So, it was just like the right idea at the right time, great execution, and, yeah, what what what an absolute run. What else is in [01:13:56] S2: the time? Really sad news. The Texas family that was on the Plane. Plane crash yesterday was a 44 year old tech entrepreneur named Adam Robinson, who had a company called retention.com. I never knew Adam, but I know that a lot of people in ecom were were customers and, yeah, just a really tragic event all around and a rough year for the Austin tech community. [01:14:28] S1: For sure. Yeah. There was another plan [01:14:30] S2: Prayers with with their family.
01:14:30 · Jordi Hays, John Coogan
[01:14:30] S2: Prayers with with their family. [01:14:31] S1: Yes. Yes. And it is a palate cleanser. I mean, let's go over to Andre Kirkpaty because he hacked together HackerTube, which is... He built his own YouTube. You saw this with the content recommendations. So he has he has all the different comments and Hacker News submissions. He filters those through Claude and then creates a new YouTube, fully vibe coded, just clone of YouTube, so he can, just watch exactly the videos that he wants recommended by real programmers. Sort of an interesting moment of, of, you know, these, like, instantiated, like, custom software. It's like, it's like a lot [01:15:14] S2: And I like I I like how people were like, what... What's your prompt? And it was just, like, this is the most simple Yeah. That he shared. And it was like it was like two sentences. [01:15:21] S1: It was like, here's the idea. Make it. Yeah. Yeah. Encode [01:15:25] S2: them. I I want I want I want this... I basically want my YouTube... My exact YouTube algorithm Yeah. No AI voice. I don't want any I don't want any videos where the creator Yeah. Isn't talking through it themselves. Yeah. That's a good start. Yeah. And then I think secondary is, like, detecting, like, pure AI scripts. [01:15:42] S1: Yeah. Yeah. Also, mean, you can easily go through the channel and go backwards to see when the channel was created. And that helps to know is it some new... [01:15:50] S2: Channels older than than four years old.
01:15:50 · Jordi Hays, John Coogan
[01:15:50] S2: Channels older than than four years old. [01:15:52] S1: Yep. Basically. And this is interesting. The the trick is I don't watch a lot of YouTube on desktop. I need an iPhone app, Andre. So let's get into [01:16:03] S2: the app [01:16:04] S1: I don't watch YouTube on TV. [01:16:06] S2: Really?
