This deserves more attention, because it’s a really cool @Starlink use case. They’re using collars on cattle that connect to Starlink satellites in space, allowing ranchers to create and adjust a “virtual fence” in real time right from their phone in the middle of nowhere. You don't need to be close to a radio tower anymore. Literally no-one has done this before.
Halter announced today the launch of direct-to-satellite connectivity using SpaceX's @Starlink for its smart cattle collars, a world-first that removes the need for cell towers or on-ranch infrastructure. "Using Starlink enables ranchers to manage cattle anywhere they can see the sky. Combined with a suite of new tools for reproduction, animal behavior, and precision pasture management, the release significantly expands what is possible for cattle ranch management. Beef ranchers in remote and rugged regions that were limited by connectivity can now turn to virtual fencing to run more productive and sustainable operations - at a time when they face rising fuel costs, labor shortages, and an aging workforce pressures." Halter’s internal modeling estimates direct-to-satellite capability expands coverage of the U.S beef cattle market by 2.5x. Until now, Halter’s solar-powered, GPS-enabled collars relied on Halter’s proprietary long-range radio towers. With direct-to-satellite, the collars can communicate via Starlink, eliminating ground infrastructure entirely.

"get comfortable with the art of selling"

That awkward moment when you realize: Management Consultant = sales General Contractor = sales Investment banker = sales VC/PE Partner = sales Real estate = sales Recruiting = sales

vertical AI agents are going to be a BIG opportunity in 2026 and here’s why (save read this 2x): the market is flooded with horizontal tools trying to do everything. bloated. generic. and most are TERRIBLE. the real money is in specialized agentic systems that solve one bottleneck in one industry. here are some examples: • an agent that handles client intake for personal injury firms. qualifies leads, books consults, sends follow-ups. replaces 15 hours/week of admin work. • an agent that processes RFQs for construction companies. reads specs, pulls pricing, generates quotes. cuts response time from 2 days to 2 hours. • an agent that manages patient scheduling for dental practices. handles cancellations, fills gaps, sends reminders. no more front desk phone tag. each system sells for $10K . deploys in weeks. and copies across every similar business in the vertical. why vertical wins: • easier sale. “built for law firms” beats “built for everyone.” • higher prices. specialists charge more. always have. • less competition. everyone builds generic. nobody goes deep on HVAC or assisted living. • faster delivery. build once, deploy dozens of times. 80% code reuse. • compounding expertise. you learn the edge cases. you fix problems before clients notice. horizontal AI is commoditized. vertical is wide open. TLDR: pick an industry. find the bottleneck. build the agent. own that niche. RT comment “ALPHA” and I’ll send a playbook on selling AI to businesses (must follow so I can DM)

If you faced a simple choice between the federal government we now have and one that would spend 75% less—with no assurance as to where the cuts would be made—which one would you choose?
10% Current spending levels

Our Tesla cyber truck was vandalized this weekend in NH. While staying at our hotel, our vehicle was keyed within an hour of arriving. James “Jim” Pelis & chuck smith either didn’t know or didn’t care that they would be recorded. Charges pending! Class A felony In NH.
