from the mind of a seasoned tech leader
AI data centers face soaring costs and environmental stress, but solutions exist. Liquid cooling, renewable power, optical networking, edge deployment and futuristic ideas like high-altitude or space computing could make AI cheaper, cleaner and more sustainable.
Astrophage is a fictional organism with extreme energy storage, inspired by real biology like ATP, lipids, and extremophiles. Andy Weir grounds the concept in real science, exploring how life might store massive energy or survive near a star while pushing biology into speculative territory.
TrackMan data now drives MLB scouting, shaping draft value and trade decisions. Pitch metrics like spin, movement, and VAA help teams identify pitchers with elite traits, while exit velocity and barrel rates reveal hitters with strong projection and underlying power.
A weekend project created a 3D Solar System simulator that models planets, orbits, propulsion systems, and flip-and-burn trajectories. It blends science and visualization, showing how fast complex space-travel tools can be built with modern AI-assisted development.
AI agents now generate code, plan tasks, and work across tools, making clear communication essential. Technical writers are becoming key players in guiding and structuring AI-driven development, shaping how software is planned, built, and maintained.
AI is transforming white-collar work, but trades like plumbing and electrical work remain hard to automate. While AI can design and diagnose, real-world repair requires dexterity, judgment, and trust—skills robots still lack. The future will augment, not replace, the hands-on worker.
Companies are pouring money into AI, like Amazon’s Anthropic deal, while cutting jobs to fund it. They’re restructuring around automation to boost efficiency, stay competitive, and future-proof operations, shifting routine work to AI and reskilling some workers for new roles.
The days of pulling up Google to search for answers to question are already coming to an end. What will the future "search" on websites look like in a few months, a year, or the next 10 years?
I've been using Copilot for a while now, but started to experiment with a portfolio side project using Claude, and I fear I can't go back now.
