Within ~5 years, probably ~5 times as many satellites as rest of world

For those who are unaware, I’m the guy that the media crucified in 2022, for reporting on the US-funded biolabs in Ukraine. Fact-checkers and dozens of MSM outlets, like WaPo, claimed I was an “extremist” and “QAnon figure”, for accurately reporting on these labs, which they said did not exist whatsoever. In other words, the US government, in conjunction with their lapdogs in the media and social media, coordinated together to censor and smear me, for reporting on completely accurate information. I had my life ruined and spent the last 4 years living in absolute hell. Meaning my Constitutional Rights have been violated by elements within the US intelligence community. Attached is a thread I made when Elon let me back on Twitter, with a sample of some of the many defamatory articles written about me. I don’t know how or when, but one day, I will be compensated for the wrong that was done to me. I will have justice.

Elon Musk created thousands of millionaires in his career. Elizabeth Warren created 1, herself. Keep that in mind.

Every single person who still cringes at the memory of trying to bullshit their way through an interview or exam question: today, the slate is wiped clean. Set down your burden of shame. Nothing - nothing, I say - could touch this.

At least 85% of modern industrial production requires actuators and magnets to drive automated factories and machinery. One of the hardest components of actuators to produce domestically is permanent magnets. One of the strongest magnet types requires rare earths like Neodymium (NdFeB). China controls 85% of Neodymium production and 94% of NdFeB magnet production. This is Niron Magnetics. They produce the world's first powerful, rare-earth-free permanent magnets made from Iron Nitride. They are out of Minnesota and customers are receiving magnets today.

Microsoft: “The AI agent only sees what you allow it to see.” Enterprise admins: “Excellent.” opens SharePoint permissions “Oh.” The AI rollout isn’t discovering company knowledge. It’s discovering 15 years of exceptions, inheritance, temporary access, break-glass accounts and things nobody wanted to touch. The context window was never the scary part.

I just used opus 4.8 to migrate an old server to a new one on AWS and it was flawless. Even caught errors I had left over from when I originally installed stuff.

CEOs are quietly realizing the AI replacement plan has a problem. Two problems, actually. One: the token costs for running AI agents are now exceeding what they were paying the employees they fired. Two: when the tokens run out, the AI stops. Just stops. No continuity. No workaround. Just a spinning wheel where your workforce used to be. You fired humans to save money and bought a subscription that bills you into a corner. The employees you let go knew what to do when things broke. The AI just invoices you for the outage. And then there’s the permission problem nobody wants to talk about. To do its job, the AI agent needs access. Full access. Your systems, your patents, your contracts, your future plans. Everything you spent years building, handed over to a process that has no loyalty, no discretion, and no skin in the game. You didn’t hire a replacement. You gave a stranger with no soul the keys to everything you own. Enjoy.

We uncovered something far bigger than I ever expected. After seeing coordinated false attacks against the Utah data center project, we brought in an advanced data science team to trace where the content was coming from and the results were shocking. What we found led back to organized networks, political activist groups, and funding trails tied to massive international entities. We dug through IRS 990 filings, tracked IP data from around the world, and uncovered what appears to be a coordinated campaign targeting energy and data center projects across multiple regions. I shared 90 pages of evidence with federal law enforcement and raised concerns directly with contacts at the White House. This isn’t speculation. The filings, funding records, dates, and connections are documented. There’s a coordinated PR war happening around energy infrastructure and data centers, and we’re not going to ignore it.

Every generation has its doomers. 💀 A new tool appears. Serious people announce the end of everything. A few years later everyone uses it, and the doomers quietly move on to the next thing.

OK, this slaps 🙌

I’ve joined OpenCode as a Principal Engineer 😎 My time at @wundergraphcom taught me a lot about developer tooling, infrastructure, product building, and what it takes to build for developers at scale. Now it’s time to build again. There hasn’t been a more exciting moment to build for developers in years. Developers don’t just need access to better models. They need strong defaults, reliable inference, tools that actually do the job, and the freedom to choose their models, own their stack, control their data, and optimize costs without getting trapped in someone else’s ecosystem. I’m super excited to help make OpenCode the best way to build agents: from the best developer experience across the SDK and tooling, to great model choice and reliable inference for teams doing serious work with coding agents. The pace is wild. The opportunity is massive. And this team’s ambition immediately pulled me in: @thdxr @jayair @fanjiewang.

Eric Schmidt should’ve stopped mid-speech and said: “Fine. Boo AI. But make your next Preply class Chinese, because the civilization cheering this stuff is not waiting for you to finish your campus struggle session.” China’s grandmas are lining up to install AI tools. Chinese developers are shipping open-source models like their hair is on fire. Their public is overwhelmingly positive about AI (83% feel positive about the future while in the west we are circling the drain around 30%). Their companies are moving fast, copying fast, improving fast, innovating fast, deploying fast. And in America? Our most educated children boo the mere mention of the most important technology since electricity. Why? Because our AI leadership class has spent three years doing the dumbest possible PR campaign in the history of technology. One half of them tells everyone AI will kill them. The other half tells everyone AI will take every white-collar job in 18 months. Then the closed-model cartel runs to DC whispering that ordinary people cannot be trusted with powerful open-source AI, that the future must be locked behind a handful of corporate APIs, safety boards, export controls, permission slips, and East India Company monopolies. And everyone acts shocked when the kids hate it. You told them AI means unemployment. You told them AI means extinction. You told them AI means no future. Then you walk onto a graduation stage and say “AI” and wonder why they boo. This is what strategic suicide looks like. The country that taught the world to love computers, the internet, open source, startups, hackers, builders, weirdos, tinkerers, and permissionless innovation is now teaching its children to fear the next platform shift. Meanwhile China looked at AI and said: deploy it, open it, copy it, improve it, integrate it, normalize it. We looked at AI and said: regulate it, monopolize it, catastrophize it, litigate it, protest the datacenters, ban the open models, blame every layoff on it, then act mystified when the public thinks it’s a demon machine. NIMYBs are moving from blocking housing to blocking datacenters. The same folks that stopped nuclear, the cleanest energy we have, are now joining hands with the NIMYBs. The hard right nationalists in Bannon and the hard left socialists in Bernie are joining hands in a new American party with mad Max Tegmark spending billions to terrify children about AI. Wonder what they'll call themselves? Maybe the National Socialists? The West does not have an AI capability problem. It has an AI civilizational-confidence problem. And if we keep telling our kids that the future is something to boo, don’t be surprised when the future answers back in Mandarin.
