The neuromorphic robotic e-skin (NRE-skin) is assembled from a collection =

Biomedical progress has become less pro= ductive for the last several years despite staggering advances in basic sci= ence. One of the reasons for this is that institutional bureaucracy has bec= ome harder to overcome.

The primary users of infrastructure sof= tware are rapidly shifting from developers to AI agents. AI uses systems ve=

AI will likely make 24/7 on-call a thin=

s. There are often reference documents that engineers can follow to bring s= ystems back up, and if they fail, there's always a backup and recovery plan=
in place. On-call jobs have always been more systematic. This post introdu= ces an autonomous monitoring agent that does what an on-call engineer would=

Labor and capital have traditionally co= mplemented each other. While wealthy people can keep accumulating capital, =
it becomes less valuable when there aren't enough hands to use all of it, a=
