Thinking in public
Long-form arguments and working research on the systems connecting energy, compute, industry, and the built world. Finished essays state the case; working notes expose the questions still being developed.
Kimi Hit the Limits of Its Compute. The Model May No Longer Be the Moat
Frontier capability is clustering more tightly. If intelligence becomes easier to reproduce, the durable advantage must move outward.
Why AI Is Reshaping Electrical Infrastructure
Higher density and synchronized loads are changing electrical design from the accelerator to the utility substation.
Understanding Utility Interconnection Queues
The grid's least visible administrative process determines which projects can connect, what they pay, and how long they wait.
Why Mission-Critical Facilities Are Growing So Quickly
The high cost of interruption is reshaping how hospitals, fabs, exchanges, data centers, and other critical facilities are built.
The Power Problem Behind AI
Compute capacity can be ordered faster than grid capacity can be built. Much of AI infrastructure strategy follows from that gap.
How Semiconductors Became Strategic Infrastructure
Semiconductor production now shapes industrial policy, trade, defense, and infrastructure planning.
The library distinguishes finished essays from working notes so readers can see the maturity of the argument. New entries should preserve that status label and join one or more system topics.
