Since 2020, I've taken on a Steve Jobs alter-ego (on a very, very part time basis, and often for humor purposes). The first essay I wrote wasn't even related to hardware, or solar powered-conscious operating systems that began around the same time. It was actually about one of my former jobs, regarding Knowledge Bases. Using one every day, I thought there had to be a better way to integrate steps taken into a ticket management system, to show proof of work. I won't say which system and which company, since it doesn't matter. I thought back at the time, where else did someone care so much about not only user experience, but the employee's experience?

But very few people will need that much data- maybe- I suppose 125GB/s might be useful for 16K uncompressed video, but I am not sure what else. Maybe lots of coordination feeds with other autonomous agents.
In 2023, I started thinking and writing about a parallel internet:
