standard electrode potential. the strength that drives a reaction forward.
E0 physics
the ground state. the baseline that every excited state is measured from.

On capability at the frontier of deep technology

Conjecture 1. At the frontier of deep tech, capability is independent of credentials.

Axiom. Curiosity precedes credentials.

Lemma 1. The binding constraint is access, not aptitude.

Lemma 2. The instruments of the frontier are cheaper than they have ever been.

genome $95,263,072 2001 $525 2022
orbital launch $54,500/kg 1981 $2,600/kg 2023
gpu-hour $1,040 2008 $19 2023

Lemma 3. A room of obsessed peers compresses the distance from curious to capable.

Theorem. Let curiosity precede credentials, and let the binding constraint be access. Access is now cheap, and a room of obsessed peers supplies what remains. Then nothing in the path from curious to capable requires a credential to have been granted first. A credential is a lagging record of capability at the frontier, rather than a prerequisite.

Corollary 1. Your age is not a variable in the proof.

Corollary 2. The people the system calls unqualified are often closest to the problem.

five frontiers

  1. 01

    Neuro / biotech

    interfaces to the brain, edits to the genome. biology as an engineering substrate.

    primary focus — now

  2. 02

    Spacetech

    propulsion, guidance, smallsats. getting mass off the rock and keeping it alive.

  3. 03

    Physical AI

    intelligence with a body. manipulation and control that survive contact with the floor.

  4. 04

    Materials science

    alloys, ceramics, superconductors. every other frontier is rate-limited by what it can be built out of.

  5. 05

    Quantum

    computation where the universe stops being classical. qubits, error correction, cold machines.
