Hyperbound (YC S23, Series A) needs a Engineer with something to prove
We’re in-person, 5 days a week. We move fast and expect a lot. You’ll ship something the night before a customer demos it in front of 20,000 sales reps at their SKO. You’ll watch a feature you built be the reason a customer signs an $800K contract. That kind of thing either sounds like your […]
The path to ubiquitous AI (17k tokens/sec)
By Ljubisa Bajic Many believe AI is the real deal. In narrow domains, it already surpasses human performance. Used well, it is an unprecedented amplifier of human ingenuity and productivity. Its widespread adoption is hindered by two key barriers: high latency and astronomical cost. Interactions with language models lag far behind the pace of human […]
I tried building my startup entirely on European infrastructure
When I decided to build my startup on European infrastructure, I thought it would be a straightforward swap. Ditch AWS, pick some EU providers, done. How hard could it be? Turns out: harder than expected. Not impossible, I did it, but nobody talks about the weird friction points you hit along the way. This is […]
Untapped Way to Learn a Codebase: Build a Visualizer
The biggest shock of my early career was just how much code I needed to read that others wrote. I had never dealt with this. I had a hard enough time understanding my own code. The idea of understanding hundreds of thousands or even millions of lines of code written by countless other people scared […]

Web components, custom elements, shadow DOM, and native event systems let developers create modular, reusable UI pieces that communicate elegantly — and AI assistants […]
GPU Rack Power Density, 2015–2025
1,000W Per Blackwell Chip 132kW Current Rack Density 240kW Expected 2026 50-100kW Air Cooling Limit The Physics Problem NVIDIA’s latest Blackwell GPUs generate up to 1,000 watts per chip – over three times more heat than GPUs from just seven years ago. Traditional air cooling physically cannot dissipate heat at these densities. Above 50-100kW per […]
