The river and its stones There are so many stones in the river. Anyone standing at a creek knows the stones are why it sings. They are where the riffles form, where the current divides…
The gospel and the registration statement In June 1889 Andrew Carnegie published an essay in the North American Review under the plain title Wealth and became known as The Gospel of Wealth with the argument…
Peter van der Made saw, earlier than anyone I know, that the road to genuinely intelligent machines runs through the brain itself. In Higher Intelligence, he described neurons that integrate signals over time and fire…
Neuromorphic compute, the heterogeneous compute ontology, and industry rebuilds Rye on the Monongahela One of the first great American arguments about value leaving the place that made it happened in the hills of southwestern Pennsylvania.…
The broken bridge The EdgeAI Foundation put forward a video explaining Why Neuromorphic Development is Broken (And How to Fix It), featuring Gianvito Urgese. Urgese et al., in the IEEE Internet of Things Journal, argue…
The terms we use frame how we look at issues. Data center and edge are no exceptions. The problem? No one wakes up and decides to call their eyes the rim of themselves, still less…
No one wakes up one morning and decides to call their eyes “the edge.” The retina is no peripheral sensor bolted onto the brain, it grows out of the developing forebrain and it computes before…
A BrainChip AKD1500 in our racks spent this week teaching itself to tell things apart. That was the first step for what follows after the LLM/CUDA work I did last week. Nobody labelled anything for…
There is a recording of Down in the River to Pray made at the Shenandoah Christian Music Camp that I have gone back to more times than I can count. So many voices, four parts,…
Seventy demonstrations ran between December 2025 and July 2026. All of them sat on BrainChip Akida neuromorphic silicon and a heterogeneous compute ontology assembled from IBM Spectrum Symphony, IBM Spectrum LSF, and IBM Storage Scale,…
