Why Compute? Jevons Still Explains the Shortage
Why COMPUTE? Jevons, 1865. Watt made the steam engine more efficient, coal got cheaper per unit of work, and Britain burned more coal than ever. That’s the part the efficiency crowd keeps getting backwards. Every drop in cost per token
IREN’s Bottom Line: The Hard Truth Behind Its AI Pivot
The bottom line on IREN is more complicated than the headline. The company combines renewable power, controlled sites, data-center capacity, and two possible revenue engines: Bitcoin mining today and AI infrastructure tomorrow. That combination is what makes IREN unusual. Mining

Power, Part 2: The Queue Nobody Can Skip
POWER, PART 2. The queue nobody can skip. Part 1 was who owns the electrons. This is why nobody else can get any. THE TURBINE $GEV $SMNEY $MHVYF Three companies on earth build heavy duty gas turbines. New orders run
Open Weights Push the Moat to Power, Land, and Chips
Chamath is describing the second half of Jevons. Open weights are the efficiency shock. Cost per token collapses, which means more people run more models in more places, which means more compute burned, not less. Watt made the steam engine
Bitcoin’s Golden Cross Is a Signal, Not a Thesis

Land Is the Cheapest Input in the AI Power Stack
Land is the cheapest input in the AI power stack. The scarce resources are the pieces that determine whether a data-center project can actually become energized capacity. The binding constraints are tightening: New heavy-duty gas-turbine orders run about three years.

Speed to Usable Capacity Is the Whole Neocloud Trade
“Speed to usable capacity” is the whole neocloud trade in four words. A gigawatt campus is a 2029 asset. A 100MW site with power already flowing is a 2026 asset. The labs are not shopping for cheap compute. They are
