Tesla’s optimus hits snags in hands, suppliers as scale-up begins
Tesla is now building several hundred Optimus humanoid robots per week at Fremont, roughly 10 times its Q2 output, according to a new report. But the robots coming off the line still can’t handle generalized tasks – limiting their usefulness. The report also describes fragile hands, misaligned parts on the assembly line, and suppliers that […]
Jevmem – automatic project memory for Claude Code, built on Jev
Automatic project memory for Claude Code. Also works with Cursor and Codex. What it does jevmem-launch-readme-v2.mp4 Saves decisions, constraints, bugs and todos from your Claude Code chats into JEVMEM.md, automatically.

Gravity Seems Holographic. What Does That Mean for Reality?
In my first months as a physics journalist nearly a decade ago, I kept running into an inscrutable string of characters: AdS/CFT. Thoroughly intimidated, I decided to just ignore it. But I couldn’t keep my head in the sand for long. I soon learned that those characters are shorthand for a surprising connection between the […]

Allow Carriers on Planes
The FAA has one of my favorite examples of thoughtful rulemaking. They haven’t banned flying with a baby on your lap, because the extra cost would mean many parents would drive instead. Since driving is far less safe than flying, a ban would lead to more deaths. I’d love to see more of this “all […]
First Principles Thinking
I’ve re-read Sunil Pai’s “the senior engineer death spiral” several times this week. It’s very good. If you haven’t read it, start there. It’s resonating with me because I think almost every senior engineer has felt some version of being stuck. You get good at what you do, then things change, and the experience you’ve […]
ASML says it sold ‘absolutely nothing’ in Europe in 2026
As the world’s only supplier of EUV lithography systems, ASML is Europe’s largest company by market capitalization, currently valued at around $660 billion. But it earned almost nothing in Europe this year, down from 1% of total profits in 2025 and 5% in 2024. Why? European chipmakers bought no lithography equipment from ASML in 2026 […]
