Architecture Over Scale
W49 - When Google validated my AI thesis, I didn't celebrate. I shrugged. While they wrote 50-page theories, I'd already built the solution—in $75 cow tags. They're just arriving at the starting line as I cross the finish. Being right too early feels exactly like being wrong. Until it doesn't.

AI Won't Take Your Job. It'll Take Your Purpose. That's Worse.
W47 - What took 200 years to destroy rural America will take 5 years to obliterate white-collar work. The farmers were blindsided by mechanization. We're not blindsided—we can read every word of our obsolescence in the Terms & Conditions. We just keep clicking 'Accept' anyway.
