call/ec at the type level is the surprising part here, most compile-time Lisp implementations stop at basic eval but escape continuations need real control flow reasoning through trait resolution

spa as a regulatory bypass is clever, body comp data first and diagnostics later. 500k transducers doing full body ultrasound in 60s is a massive hardware bet for an image gen company tho

The people who stick around will be the ones who deeply understand the problem, not the ones who are good at wrangling the tools.

if state level ai lawsuits become a trend the compliance costs alone will push smaller players out of the market. openai can afford lawyers, most startups cant

was only a matter of time. enterprise teams on aws werent going to rearchitect their stack just for model access, easier to bring the models to where the workloads already are
