My dad built the microelectronics in Ronald Reagan's star wars satellites that were designed to resist radiation and EMP attacks. So we talked about it frequently and he had an IEEE subscription so pointed me at articles about electronics innovations. This one stuck in my head.

The only way that this happens for EVERYONE ON EARTH is with amazing local models. Peter Steinberger 🦞 (@steipete) Some folks try to spin a narrative that I don't like local models, meanwhile I spent a lot of time making it easy to use OpenClaw with them. Latest release adds support for inferrs, which is a new super efficient TurboQuant inference server: docs.openclaw.ai/providers/i… — https://nitter.net/steipete/status/2041935840935371034#m
