this being 2.6B implies we have a lot more information density to stuff into LLMs

@mortimer_1 Pretty sure I own that MacBook model…

@JJ_McCullough As the tax base erodes, so does the currency.

Canada imports most of its food. My affinity towards after I left it doesn’t fix this either.

@EvanHoffman @bonchieredstate Term Limits, 100x Congressional Salaries, strongly crack down on corruption and insider trading.

@bonchieredstate There’s no monocausal explanation but I think a major factor in why everything is so fucked up these days is there’s just no incentive for good, competent people to go into politics.

[Substrate @substrate]

Substrate is building a next-generation foundry to return America to dominance in semiconductor production. To achieve this, we will use our technology—a new form of advanced X-ray lithography—to power them.

America invented semiconductors. We will lead again.

Edison Was Right

we took a century-long detour because nikola tesla figured out you could wiggle electrons up and down and move voltage around with coils of iron and copper. fair enough — in 1890, that was sorcery. transformers were the only way to change voltage, and the only trick we had was to shake the magnetic field at 60 hz and hope the iron didn’t saturate.

but that world’s gone. silicon rules now. wide-bandgap semiconductors — SiC, GaN, etc. — make voltage conversion solid-state. no moving parts, no humming oil tanks. we can step dc up, down, and sideways with converters that waste almost nothing.

every load worth caring about — batteries, EVs, LEDs, computers, servers, and modern motor drives — already runs on DC. new generation from solar and wind are also DC — we waste billions flipping it from DC → AC → DC again.

moreover, steel-coiled transformers are industrial fossils: 10,000-pound copper monuments with multi-year lead times. they hum because they’re ashamed. if we were building the modern grid from scratch, we’d run it DC from the rooftop to the rack — solid-state all the way down.

homes. cars. factories. data centers. ships. bases. no spinning rotors, no reactive power, no harmonic witchcraft. just clean, disciplined electrons flowing in one direction — like God, physics, and Edison intended.
