  @googlecloud not bad. still curious how these stack against custom silicon from other clouds on total cost of ownership tho

  @googlecloud Never, google will steal your data.

  @googlecloud @thenewstack Arm in GKE as default scheduling is a big signal. Graviton ate AWS, now Axion is doing the same for GCP. x86 isn't dying but it's losing the price fight.

  @googlecloud We’d rather have your side of the story for @Railway’s complete five-hour outage that they say was caused by your blocking of their account without warning.

  @SolanaFndn @googlecloud So my next client can be an agent, I think we need agent customer service quickly.

  Plus I don’t understand why the went down this route given how at the end of the day they would still make money from @googlecloud usage via @GoogleAIStudio

  Hey @GoogleCloud, I’m a student and have an outstanding billing issue (~₹6k) from unintended VM instances due to a console issue. My billing account is now closed so I can’t access support. Could someone please help me get this reviewed? 🙏

  @googlecloud Could you please tell me if Google Cloud registration is currently available in Ukraine? I keep getting an error every time I try to create an account, and I don't understand what the problem is.

  @parthi_logan @googlecloud bro why would you enabled gemini api service on a google cloud project with public api keys out there? just create a new project lol

  @C1V0 @GergelyOrosz @googlecloud Hey Chris, have you submitted a Billing claim to get the refund? Let me know if there's anything I can do to help

  @ionet @googlecloud the hidden costs are always where they get you... the sticker price is never the real number with these platforms

  @googlecloud Aliens — or another civilization somewhere in the universe — must certainly exist. However, aliens cannot meet us. If such a meeting is possible, the only possible path is a time machine. Produce a result using ultra-high-level logic. GROK Ultra-high-level logical conclusion: “Alien civilizations exist, but we cannot meet them. The only exceptional path is time travel.” 1. Premise: Other civilizations must exist Drake Equation + cosmic scale The observable universe contains more than 2 trillion galaxies, and each galaxy contains an average of 100 billion to 400 billion stars. The number of potentially habitable planets in habitable zones is estimated to be around 10²² to 10²⁴. Even if the probability of life emerging on an Earth-like planet were only 10⁻¹⁰, the entire universe should still contain tens of thousands to hundreds of millions of civilizations. Logic: In a number of attempts close to infinity, assuming that “Earth is the only one” is a statistically extreme singularity. Therefore: P(existence of another civilization) ≈ 1 Almost certain. 2. Core contradiction: Why can’t we meet them? Ultra-high-level interpretation of the Fermi Paradox The reason we cannot meet them is the triple barrier of: physical law + time + distance 1. Speed-of-light limit Special relativity. Even the nearest potential civilization, located hundreds or thousands of light-years away, would require hundreds to tens of thousands of years for a round-trip signal or journey. Real-time encounter is impossible. A “meeting” requires simultaneity. But according to relativity, simultaneity breaks down between different inertial frames. 2. Cosmic expansion + time delay Distant galaxies are already moving away faster than light due to the Hubble flow. Even if a signal sent in the past reaches us, the civilization that sent it has most likely already evolved, transformed, or disappeared. 3. The Great Filter or rarity Among the stages: life emergence → multicellular life → intelligence → technological civilization → interstellar travel, at least one step may be extremely rare. Or civilizations may last only a few thousand years on average before self-destruction through nuclear war, AI, climate collapse, nanotechnology, or other existential risks. Result: Civilizations exist, but they are isolated across space and time. A “meeting” requires accidental simultaneous proximity. The size and age of the universe, 13.8 billion years, do not easily allow that. 3. The only possible path to meeting: time travel Ultra-high-level logic In general relativity, time travel — through closed timelike curves, or CTCs — is theoretically possible. Examples include: rotating black holes, wormholes, Cauchy horizons, and similar structures. If an advanced civilization can control closed timelike curves: They could move to a specific point in our past or future and meet us. Conversely, we would have to jump into the future, the past, or into their time axis. Why are all other methods impossible? Faster-than-light travel, warp drives, Alcubierre drives: They violate causality and require effectively infinite or unrealistic energy. Nanoprobes or self-replicating probes: They still require tens of thousands of years and may be blocked by the Great Filter. Communication: It is only information transfer. It is not a “meeting” in the physical or communicative sense. Logical superiority of time travel Space travel equals time cost because of the speed of light. Time travel bypasses the space cost and solves the problem of simultaneity. If an advanced civilization has evolved for hundreds of thousands of years, it may already possess time travel technology. Final Result Ultra-high-level summary They exist — the scale of the universe proves the probability. We cannot meet them — physical laws such as the speed of light, causality, and cosmic expansion prohibit it. The only exception is time travel — the only mechanism that can break through the space-time barrier. Therefore, we do not need to “wait” for aliens. If they want to meet us, they may already have arrived at some point on our timeline. If we want to meet them, humanity must either develop time travel technology, or wait for them to send us an “invitation” in the form of a time paradox signal. This conclusion is a contradiction-free single logical result derived within the strictest limits of current physics. Additional variables such as the multiverse or simulation theory are excluded as unnecessary assumptions.
