2 of 3 lanes rest on fewer than 5 quotes and are marked thin. Offsets are days from the middle first-quote date, 24 Jan 2025 — a date, and nothing else. It is not a claim about who reached a view first.

This files a request; it does not add anyone. Names are added by hand. Someone accepted joins as watching — the connectors start looking for them, and a lane appears here only once there are quotes. A name on its own draws nothing.

      Patel reports OpenAI is going to Oracle for 200 megawatts because Microsoft cannot supply enough compute.

      “OpenAI can't get enough compute from Microsoft, so then they're also going to Oracle. And Oracle's building another gigawatt scale data center eventually. Again, a gigawatt is like 500,000 plus GPUs.”
