There are two reasons to write a business book, according to Brad Stone , author of “The Everything Store.” You’re either writing a thriller or a how-to-manual. In “The Nvidia Way,” veteran technology journalist Tae Kim manages to do both. Kim charts the improbable rise of Nvidia from a fledgling three-person ‘90s era graphics chip startup, one of countless others in a crowded and cutthroat field, to the largest and most influential computer company in the world. Kim also lays out the reasons for Nvidia’s success. It wasn’t just that they had talented leaders, good timing, or industry-leading technology. Nvidia succeeded because it cultivates a unique culture of excellence which he dubs “The Nvidia Way.” At the center of this story is CEO Jensen Huang, described by one employee in the book as an “extremely persuasive and extremely hard working” leader, who has been leading the firm and shaping this culture since its founding in 1993. Huang is one of the longest-tenured CEO in the technology industry and one of the few lone founders still running the show. As Kim readily acknowledges, the Nvidia Way is really the Jensen Way. He sets the culture. What is the Nvidia Way? First, hire the best people. When in doubt, go for raw talent over experience. Second, reward performance and compensate your best people very well. Third, demand excellence and accountability from everyone all the time, starting at the top. Huang is a Taiwanese immigrant of humble origin who excelled in math and table tennis and graduated high school at 16. He later befriended Nvidia’s other co-founders, Curtis Priem, who also began programming computers in high school, and Chris Malachowsky, who realized midway through his MCAT exam he didn’t want to be a doctor, in Silicon Valley’s tight-knit community. Over countless coffees at a neighborhood Denny’s, they convinced each other to quit their jobs and start a new company. From day one, Huang was CEO. Priem and Malachowsky are interesting figures, and we get to know them a little, but if the Nvidia story was the Avengers, Huang is Iron Man, the star of the show. Nvidia launched at “the perfect time,” says Kim. By 1993, the demand for graphics chips powering video games like “Doom” was exploding. But despite the favorable market conditions, Nvidia’s first chip, the NV1, was a flop. “Nobody goes to the store to buy a Swiss Army knife. It’s something you get for Christmas” Huang later recounted about the product, which was fatally overengineered. “When we were younger, we sucked at a lot of things, ” says Huang,” adding that Nvidia might have done better if he simply was not around in the first five years. A new chip, the RIVA 128, saved the company. Nvidia even turned a modest profit in its first year. This success would be short-lived. The next half-decade was characterized by both big wins, and large setbacks. “Building a company is a new skill,” Huang admits. Nvidia often found itself on the back foot early on. Designing and launching a graphics card took more than a year, but chip buyers were refreshing their lineup of PCs every six months, meaning no one company could ever stay on top. Huang’s solution: “We’re going to fundamentally restructure the engineering department to line up with the refresh cycles.” This decision changed the chip industry as every other competitor was forced to keep pace or die. Huang calls this “moving at the Speed of Light,” the theoretical limit of how fast anything can travel, to win. A “Star Trek” fan, he was talked out of dubbing this culture of quickness the much geekier “Mycelium Spore Drive.” After a few years, Nvidia began to hit its stride, going public in 1999 and then winning the contract for the first Xbox from Microsoft. Later, Nvidia grabbed 85% of Apple’s entire computer lineup. As the company grew more successful, Huang became obsessed with “The Innovator’s Dilemma,” a concept coined by professor Clayton Christensen, which describes how incumbents are often disrupted by more nimble upstarts. Huang’s fear of getting disrupted drives him. “The only thing that lasts longer than our products is sushi,” he likes to joke. It’s why he’s partial to erasable whiteboards, which “represent the belief that a successful idea, no matter how brilliant, must eventually be erased, and a new one must take its pace.” Nvidia’s first true killer product was the graphical processor unit, or GPU, launched in 2003. The GPU changed the market perception by putting the GPU (the graphics engine) on par with a better-known CPU, or central processing unit. This was more than marketing hyperbole. The new class of chips was programmable, which meant they could be used for a myriad of use cases. At first, Nvidia had no clue just how versatile the GPU truly was. “Really the modern GPU, we kind of stumbled onto,” said Nvidia scientist David Kirk. As it turned out, super powerful graphics engines were great for other kinds of computation, including the nascent field of AI research. In fact, academics credit Nvidia’s GPU with leveling the playing field in research by democratizing computing power. Recognizing the AI opportunity early, Huang declared in 2012, “We need to consider this work as our highest priority.” To make the GPUs easy for non-graphics users to program, Nvidia created a software interface known as CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). Over time, CUDA became the company’s greatest asset. Once you get used to programming chips in one environment, you never want to leave. Nvidia also began aggressively cultivating AI researchers through grants, joint ventures, and partnerships with academia. This decades-long effort helped to effectively create a market for its GPUs. As Nvidia grew, they remained vigilant against the corporate bloat and inertia that kills companies. Huang hates corporate hierarchy. “You want a company that’s as large as necessary to do the job well, but to be as small as possible.” For him, the goal is to have a Vulcan mind meld (another “Star Trek” reference) with his people, where people can share and anticipate each other’s thoughts. Kim’s book leaves readers with the impression the AI age is just getting started. Nvidia, for their part, thinks the entire data center market, made up mostly of CPUs, will need to switch to GPUs, representing more than a trillion dollars in chip purchases. The “big bang” for Nvidia came in 2023, shortly after the release of ChatGPT, when the company beat its revenue estimates by a staggering $4 billion. For some, Nvidia’s rapid ascent to being the world’s largest company was a shock. For anyone paying attention, Kim argues, their eventual success should have been obvious. “It is Jensen’s personal will that has shaped Nvidia,” says Kim, asking what happens when he and the company part ways. That question goes unanswered. For now, Nvidia sits unassailable atop the mountain, surrounded by a cultural moat few can traverse.

Dortmund coach Nuri Sahin, who on Tuesday announced that defender Niklas Suele would be out for several months and is also missing defender Waldemar Anton, said Schlotterbeck's potential absence would be a major blow to the team. The Germany international was injured in the final move of the game after having headed the ball over the Barcelona goal. As he landed, he badly turned his ankle and had to be treated on the pitch after the final whistle before being taken off on a stretcher. "It would be a complete disaster if he was also sidelined," Sahin said. "I don't have a diagnosis yet but obviously he is completely dejected." "I saw the images and they are horrible. We will have a sleepless night tonight and then we will have to see how it develops tomorrow," said the coach. Dortmund, in sixth place in the Bundesliga, have been struggling with injuries for months and at some stage were missing as many as 10 players. The defeat against Barcelona saw Dortmund, last year's finalists, drop to ninth place on 12 points with two matches remaining, with the top eight earning automatic qualification for the round of 16. "I am fuming because we played well," Sahin said. "We have to win these games. We deserved more in the second half." "I do not want to hear that we played a good game. There is no room for mistakes and we have to learn that. We keep up with these top teams but in the end I want to sit here and say 'we won the game'. That is the development we need." Sign up here.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Tyler Huntley stepped in for Tua Tagovailoa and stepped up for the Dolphins. Miami still has a playoff pulse. Huntley scrambled for a touchdown and threw for one while starting for the injured Tagovailoa, and the Dolphins stayed in the AFC wild-card race heading into their season finale with a 20-3 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. With Tagovailoa sidelined by a hip injury, the backup known as “Snoop” did enough for the Dolphins (8-8). “This was not ideal in any way, shape or form,” said Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel, adding he held out hope up until just before kickoff that Tagovailoa might play. “But it was a tremendous outing for (Huntley). It showed how far Snoop has come.” Miami needs to win next weekend at the New York Jets and hope the Denver Broncos lose at home to Kansas City to get a postseason berth. Unfortunately for the Dolphins, quarterback Patrick Mahomes and many of the top-seeded Chiefs' starters are expected to rest. “For the first time in my life, I'm about to be a huge Chiefs fan,” Dolphins defensive tackle Calais Campbell said. “It might not happen (making the playoffs), but we have an opportunity. And if it does happen, look out, we're coming.” Tagovailoa's status for next week is unclear, but Huntley showed he can get the job done if necessary. He finished 22 of 26 for 225 yards and didn't have any turnovers in his fourth start this season. The 26-year-old was with Cleveland in training camp before being released in August. Huntley downplayed any thought he was seeking revenge against the Browns. “When I left, that was it,” said Huntley, who was signed by Miami in September when Tagovailoa suffered his latest concussion. “For him to get cut, it was our blessing picking him up,” Campbell said. Tagovailoa was limited in practice all week with the hip injury suffered two weeks ago against Houston. McDaniel said “it's impossible” to know whether Tagovailoa will be available to face the Jets. “From a medical perspective, it was not an option for him to play today,” McDaniel said. Tagovailoa spent the afternoon on the sideline in sweats, encouraging Huntley and his other teammates. The quarterback was not available for interviews afterward. The Browns (3-13) dropped their fifth straight, finished 2-6 at home and could be headed toward another offseason of major turnover. They improved their draft position for 2025, when they will likely look for a quarterback. “I have no comment on that,” said Browns coach Kevin Stefanski, whose job appears safe despite the team's regression after making the playoffs last season. Dorian Thompson-Robinson isn't the long-term answer. In his second straight start, the second-year QB completed 24 of 47 passes for 170 yards. He also threw an interception, lost a fumble and was flagged three times for intentional grounding. “We were harassing him all day,” Campbell said. Both offenses had issues in windy and wet conditions, but Huntley handled them better. He ran for a 13-yard touchdown early in the third quarter to put the Dolphins up 13-3. After rolling right, Huntley made several precise cuts as he picked his way down the sideline and into the end zone. “He was just making plays,” said receiver Tyreek Hill, who had nine catches for 105 yards. Hill said Tagovailoa pushed as hard as possible to play. “Basically, it was the staff trying to save a player from himself,” Hill said. The Browns had a chance to cut into the lead, but Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey broke up Thompson-Robinson's fourth-and-goal pass toward Jerry Jeudy in the end zone. Huntley connected with tight end Jonnu Smith on a 7-yard TD with 3:38 left. Miami's Jason Sanders kicked field goals of 54 and 39 yards. He's made a franchise-best 25 in a row, the streak helped by a friendly bounce off the crossbar on his 54-yarder in the first quarter. The Browns tied it when Dustin Hopkins, who was benched for a game during a recent slump, kicked a 25-yard field goal. Sack happy (birthday) Browns defensive end Myles Garrett celebrated his 29th birthday with a pair of sacks. Last season's defensive player of the year has 14 this season, making him the first player in league history to get that many four years in a row. Injuries Dolphins: LT Terron Armstead was forced out in the second quarter with a knee injury that has bothered him for weeks. Patrick Paul filled in. ... WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) was inactive. Browns: CB Denzel Ward (shoulder) didn't play in the second half after getting hurt in the second quarter. ... LB Jordan Hicks was ruled out with a head injury. ... RB Jerome Ford (ankle) was forced out in the first half. He came back but was only on the field for one play after halftime. ... RB Pierre Strong Jr. left with an apparent head injury in the final minutes. Up next Dolphins: Wrap up the regular season against the Jets on Jan. 4 or 5. Browns: Visit Baltimore next weekend.

The former Picture Palace is the 26th historic building in Prescot town centre to benefit from restoration work as part of Knowsley Council’s wider regeneration programme for the town. The Grade II listed building is a rare example of its type and was one of the earliest cine-variety houses in the country. The expert restoration work focussed on the exterior of the building and was carried out by Knowsley Council with support from Purcell, specialist conservation-accredited architects. Historical photographs were used to help recreate some of the original design features, which were created in the flamboyant Edwardian Neo-Baroque style. This has all helped to bring the building back to its former splendour. READ > Works to major M62 junction to cause 'unavoidable delays' The work has been funded jointly by Historic England and Knowsley Council as part of the Prescot Heritage Action Zone project. The work includes: Cllr Tony Brennan, Knowsley’s cabinet member for regeneration and economic development said: “The restoration of the former Prescot Picture Palace building is the single biggest project the council has undertaken as part of our successful High Street Heritage Action Zone project here in Prescot. "The architectural heritage and cultural history of this iconic building is incomparable, and I am delighted that we have been able to safeguard this building and its heritage for many more years to come.” A picture taken inside Prescot Picture Palace in 2021 (Image: Stock) Associate Architect at Purcell, Jane Roylance added: “We are proud to have contributed to the conservation of the Grade II listed Prescot Picture Palace, a much-loved icon of Knowsley’s heritage, which has carefully restored the building’s original features. The works form the first phase of the building’s regeneration which will secure its future for generations to come.” Historic England’s Julie Griffiths said: “We’re delighted to see this historic gem in the heart of Prescot now fully restored and ready for a new use. This is testament to the hard work of Knowsley Council, local people and expert contractors who’ve worked together to make this happen.” The former Prescot Picture Palace Cinema at 8-14 Kemble Street was established in 1912. The Prescot Picture Palace Company Ltd purchased number 12 to 14 Kemble Street (a pair of amalgamated C19 town houses) and plans were approved by the Urban District Council for their conversion into a cine-variety theatre in September of that year. At its opening it was described as presenting a palatial appearance and ‘quite luxurious’ with the theatre seating 630 customers, which increased with the addition of a balcony around 1913. The U-shaped balcony, carried on ten pairs of columns, was accessed by a central L-shaped staircase off the foyer. The Picture Palace served as a picture-drome, music-hall and Variety Theatre. It was operated as part of the J F Emery Circuit by 1923, renamed ‘Palace Cinema’ in 1927, and equipped with a British Thomson-Houston (BTH) sound system by 1929. In 1957 the cinema closed, and the building became a carpet and furniture warehouse. The plan form remained unchanged until the mid-1970s, although the 1920s cinema seating was removed from the auditorium and stored in the upper floors. Around 1975 former shops (8-10 Kemble St) were purchased by Tudor Bingo and incorporated into the cinema building. Number 8 was a purpose-built early-C20 shop, with an Edwardian shopfront to the ground and first floor, and Number 10 a former C19 house converted to a shop. Both shop frontages were boarded up and modifications included the creation of internal access between the newly purchased buildings and the former cinema, and the removal of the cinema entrance entablature for a fascia sign. A flat roof extension was added to the rear of numbers 8-10 and another at the south end of the auditorium’s east elevation. Internally the east arm of the balcony was extended to the south end of the auditorium, over the stage and beneath the proscenium arch. Coral Bingo took over the bingo club in the late 1980s and established a social club, with the loss of the shop front to number 10 for the insertion of two ground floor windows. In 1995 the buildings were purchased by Prescot Community Church (an Elim Pentecostal Congregation), who remained in residence until 2021. Knowsley Council acquired the building in 2021, and the revival of the building is the single largest project of Prescot’s High Street Heritage Action Zone project, jointly funded by Knowsley Council and Historic England. Prescot was selected as one of the 68 high streets to benefit from the High Streets Heritage Action Zone scheme in 2020. The £3.1 million heritage-led regeneration programme has seen major investment from Knowsley Council and Historic England into a number of key projects in Prescot town centre.NoneThank you for another year of education advocacy
