#Interconnects
Personal milestone: 1000 true fans of my newsletter Interconnects! Hitting a very long term goal feels great.

I’m happy to get to be an independent voice in AI. Cultivating a paid base helps me commit to that longer term, and scale Interconnects’ impact.

"Knowledge wants to be free" is an unofficial motto for Interconnects and related projects like my book :)

Solar panel arrays on 3 continents with giant interconnects between them, so you don't need storage

This is one I've wanted to do for a while: ask why RL has been continually underestimated in the last 2 years.

Topics I'd argue historical anarchist theory is better on than Marx and Engels: gender/patriarchy, the state (including how it arose and interconnects with capitalism), revolutionary strategy, imperialism/war. On other topics, like definitions of freedom, I think they have equally worthwhile ideas.

who wants to go in with me to buy some dark fiber and start setting up interconnects

tl;dr estonia, latvia, and lithuania are switching from russia's power grid (a holdover from when they were part of the soviet union) over to the EU's power grid.

Interconnects had >1.2 million total views on posts this year. Excited to 10x again 😎

Thomas the Tank Engine steamcyberpunk dystopia where the invention of the locomotive steam engine radically expanded the scope of human consciousness. Sentence flows from the boiler and the piston. An engine spirit interconnects all infrastructure. Diesel is a traded on the black market.

In all our documentation of open models/datasets for Interconnects, it's been clear for all of 2025 that Chinese labs are dominating. So far, doesn't seem like many people in the U.S. care.

Plz send me 10K gpus if you want American DeepSeek, we'll happily do it.

The argument would be that the NEM is multiple interconnected grids. WA has no interconnects.

Cut out is for mounting the audio jack, which might need special handling for overmolding.

Not 100% happy with the sync stripper, but it's probably the right call for HD15/VGA interconnects.

I worked in aerospace overseeing the mechanical design of satellite systems for about ten years.

I basically stared at spreadsheets and looked at PDFs of schematics and interconnects all day.
I strongly suspect this is true of every field. There is what people think they know about it, and then there is what the daily experience of it for those who are in it. There is a wide gulf, and every one of those jobs is harder than it looks from the outside.
I’m an architect and there is an enormous gulf between what people think we do and what we actually do. Design is such a small part of it.

Anyway some tax credits and speedups on interconnects could solve a lot of issues we have

2024 Interconnects year in review -- Two years writing every week on AI.
A good starting point for how to get up to speed with my writing if you recently found it, or if you want to review the core topics I cover (RLHF, post-train, open-source, etc.).
Here's to the next one!

Two companies are making AI chip interconnects using radio waves conducted by plastic waveguides. Claim that it is cheaper, more energy-efficient, and more reliable than optical interconnects.

Westward Waters ❄️

I feel our nation's fragile freshwater system living and breathing inside me today.

Every wilderness, every waterfall, every canyon interconnects through one precious thing:

Water. ❄️💙❄️

Let's protect it.
Save our Parks!

THIS!!!! The Texas and CA grids being national leaders is wild! CA can't sell that power well because of NIMBYism and TX can't help but kill off all the old people in every cold snap (nor can they sell that power because of dereg-driven limits on their interconnects)
It is no longer a boutique option for latte sipping coastal elites

It is literally powering Texas

I pulled some updated data for ATOM Project // Interconnects.
Qwen has taken the crown, is accelerating away in market share.
U.S. has signs of promise in GPT-OSS & Nvidia.

you already know it's interconnects come on
August 21, 2026 at 9:21 PM
Yup, pretty much. Lots of interconnects between nations here in Europe
