The spreadsheet says moving your fabrication to China adds 400 basis points to EBITDA.

Did some math, and this week is pretty wild, on what local ai has saved me One week of running my law firm's AI locally (GLM-5.3 Flash trellismx my own GPUs):
14.4 billion tokens in, 120 million out.
At Claude Fable 5.1 API rates that is about $15,000 with prompt caching, or $150,000 without.

The bootstrap myth is destroying Christian families.
You kicked your son out at eighteen with a suitcase and a college loan because “you made it on your own.”
No you didn’t. You inherited a civilized Christian social order built by men who sacrificed for you.

Repent of your pride. Bring your own people into the business.

SB tactical carried us through the NFA. If and when they decide to make a stock, we should all buy one or ten of them, even if we don't need them. Buy just to support them for supporting us for all these years.
