Filed yesterday. Some of the numbers are hard to look at directly.

$16.3 billion in revenue for just the first half of 2026: up over 1,200% year on year. At the same time, a net loss of roughly $80.7 billion in the same period. To be fair, most of that loss traces to changes in the fair value of bonds that convert into company shares, not cash burned on servers so it's not as apocalyptic as it looks on the surface. But still.

The filing outlines more than $500 billion in long-term compute and infrastructure commitments. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley lead the underwriting with a group of 22 banks behind them, targeting a listing during the week of November 16.

The part I keep coming back to: the prospectus flags potential catastrophic threats to humanity among the dangers tied to AI. That sentence has probably never been in an S-1 before. They're going to Wall Street to raise money for a technology they openly acknowledge could be an existential threat. They've always been upfront about that tension but it's a strange thing to read in a stock filing.

The share count and price range aren't set yet. The employees are apparently called Ants internally. So that's the ticker sorted.

I signed an offer this morning after being unemployed for around 30 months. I submitted more applications than I can count, revised my resume again and again, and got ghosted after interviews that seemed promising, so it still doesn't feel completely real.

The job is a full-time hybrid position as an Account Support Coordinator. It also has a consistent weekday schedule, benefits, and a quarterly bonus, which is exactly the kind of stability I've been trying to achieve.

There were many times when I started wondering whether my previous experience still had any value at all. I enrolled in a short certificate program in office systems and bookkeeping, asked several people to review my resume with complete honesty, and kept practicing answers to interview questions until I could answer without freezing up.

For this interview, I kept a page of notes next to me on my laptop and prepared examples for every question I thought they might ask. The conversation went better than I expected, but after all the rejection I'd experienced, I refused to get excited. Then the hiring manager called me today and offered me the job.

If you're stuck in the application cycle and feel completely worn down, I understand. Rejection can shake your confidence even when you're doing everything right. Keep improving the things you can control, take breaks when you need them, and don't treat every rejection as proof that you're not good enough.

I’m a field technician and my boss said he’ll buy me a “reasonable” price toolkit so I can better do my job. Issue is I don’t know what are good toolkits so I was wondering if you all would know any?

One of the countries changed its time zone in September where we have a major engineering centre. Since Windows 11 update is controlled by IT admin team, they took one month to push the time zone update.

This resulted in sync issues where people from that centre asked us to join meeting that used to show one hour earlier in calendar. Loss of hours and utter incompetence shown when Time zone update rolled out late. Personal devices updated correctly.

Hello, I’m 15, and ever since I was young, I’ve wanted to work in IT. However, I’m also kinda scared about how AI might affect this type of career in the future and whether it will make it harder for me to find a job. I’ve learned a few things so far, such as installing windows, experimenting with vms, and even hosting a website on my own domain using an Ubuntu VM. I’d really appreciate it if you could recommend any youtube videos that could help me learn a frw more things. Any advice from people with actual experience in the IT industry would be good aswell.

I just started working at an msp (yes I know) and I’m not sure how I’m going to stay up for a whole week. They aren’t giving me a pager and I can’t connect my phone for email alerts. Any recommendations?

I have a bachelor's in Business with a concentration in Information Systems. I also have my Security+ and CCNA certifications as well. I want to start applying for IT help desk jobs, but I'm not sure if I should spend the money to take the exam or just study/practice for the exam to learn everything I need to know for a help desk job.

If you are following the shift toward agentic AI, understanding BabyAGI is one of the best places to start. I put together a simple breakdown of how this autonomous framework plans, executes, and reprioritizes tasks on its own.

​The framework relies on a continuous loop. You give it a single objective, and it automatically breaks the goal down into subtasks, runs them using an LLM, saves context to a vector memory store, and creates new follow-up tasks based on real-time execution results. Seeing a minimalist loop manage complex multi-step research or operational workflows shows where autonomous software is heading.

​I wrote a breakdown explaining the architecture, setup, and key use cases here: https://interconnectd.com/blog/3/babyagi-simply-explained-build-your-autonomous-ai-colleague-2026/

Have you experimented with autonomous loops or task agents yet?

If a company or vendor is brought in to handle a complete ICT lab setup (networking, cabling, hardware installation, etc.), what specific certifications would you expect their technicians or company to hold?

Trying to get an idea of what credentials are standard or expected in the industry for this kind of work.

I am 17, turning 18 in two days and in my last year of high school, and everyone I know is saying that if I do not go to college I will never make anything and will be doing poorly. I abhor sitting in a classroom. What are some ways I could get into any kind of tech related job without any college experience? What kind of certifications do I need? I am currently learning Java right now. I really love computers but want to avoid going to college at all costs.

Edit: I've recently earned my Eagle Scout rank, I thought that might be worth mentioning and was curious if that would help my chances with getting hired and make up for the lack of college.

I’m huge into Technology and IT and I see cool devices and projects all the damn time. I even have a local AI running on a big ass server for production (my small app).

But are we deadass? 8 local AI models just imported put on a damn 64 GB flash drive… 999 sold FOR…get this… $89-99…

Fuck me man this is just a scam.😤

Title says it all. She is not the most technologically savvy person. Based on her description of how enjoyable and convenient it has been to purchase drugs through whatever services she has been interacting with I doubt she has taken any steps to protect herself and our shared network beyond whatever protections are put in place by her browser.

She has no intention of stopping using it, and wouldn’t tell us if she was using it in the future.

What steps can I take to better protect our network?

Update: She hasn’t been using a VPN and didn’t even consider doing that because “it costs too much”

I'm a prior service Army commo guy with 7 years experience in the military, and I'm looking at some of these job posts and i'm kinda mind blown. Is this just how the market is? An active Secret clearance and CISSP/Security X with 6 years of exp for 60k? Maybe I'm a little far removed from how the market actually is since I just got out but jeez. I make around 50k for level 1 in a similar area...

Hi everyone. I'm a student writing an article on leadership in IT and tech careers and I need to interview someone working in the field. It's due soon so a quick reply would be appreciated.

If you work in IT or tech (any role and any level), would you answer the questions below in a comment or DM? Short answers are totally fine. Please include your occupation/job title.

1. What's your current job title and what does a typical day for you look like?

2. How did you get started in tech?

3. Have you led or managed people or projects?

4. What's the biggest difference between being good at the technical work and being a good leader?

5. Can you share a specific moment where your leadership made a real difference on a project or team?

6. What's the hardest challenge you've faced in tech and how did you handle it?

7. What skills matter most for someone who wants to be in/lead in tech someday?

8. What advice would you give a student interested in an IT or tech career?

I'll credit you by first name and job title unless you'd prefer to stay anonymous.

Is pursuing a career particularly RPA (Robotic Process Automation) in JP Morgan Chase Philippines progressive? How about the work setup and benefits?

Does anyone know of any companies hiring for entry level IT that is remote. I want to get into IT but its been hard to find a job that is for entry level positions.

Before you guys light the pyre, it's rough out here. I am about to graduate and have no experience. I've tried applying for internships, doing at-home projects, applying for underpaying low-hanging fruit, asking companies if they need help, paying $200+ for a terrible resume writer... EVERYTHING. I am more than competent to handle tier 1 Helpdesk work. I feel like Will Smith's character in The Pursuit of Happyness (when he was selling those machines). I simply want a job. I'm willing to do the grunt work, TaskRabbit, everything but selling sex. I feel like I'm networking and constantly getting leads, but no work. I would even take a part-time high school-level job just to get experience. I say all that to ask: How do I effectively lie on my resume for an entry-level role? I don't know if I need to fabricate my entire work history or just embellish the time/role I had at previous positions. I need work. I appreciate any advice except advice that says "Don't lie" - I will block you. I mean it. Don't even comment that. Thank you guys very much!

EDIT: since it was in the comments about a cert, I have my CompTIA Sec+. I am working toward my CCNA next, while refining my full stack abilities. I have experience through coursework with programming css, html, php, MEAN stack, networking, packet tracer, sql, and cloud.

I'm applying for an IT Support Specialist role. I'm asking for advice on my résumé.

1. is it too sparse or short? if so should I extend to 2 pages to fit more experience?

2. Should I include projects and less experience?

any advice will be greatly appreciated!
