Convex Arbitrage
Tail-positive strategies across domains.
Identifying asymmetric opportunities where downside is bounded and upside remains open.
Receiver Saturation, Attention Fatigue, and Stress-Relaxation Masking Observed Across CFD, Optical Interpretation, and Thermo-Mechanical Models
Embera Field Report documenting three empirically observed behaviors identified during Automation Run #90. Each behavior was derived from actual simulation runs: receiver-side saturation and masking under sustained exposure across CFD, optical interpretation, and thermo-mechanical domains.
From Emergent Behavior to Governable Systems
Closing the Gap Between Simulation Power and Operational Trust. Modern engineering organizations can simulate almost anything. Yet despite this power, a familiar problem keeps surfacing: The simulation works — until it matters.
Why Street Turns Are No Longer an Optimization — They're a Labor Strategy
In a market where qualified driver labor is structurally constrained, street turns are no longer about efficiency. They are about preserving human capacity inside a system that no longer has slack.
Preventing "Mass SOS Day"
Recent nationwide cellular outages demonstrate a structural failure mode in modern telecom architecture. This article introduces a tessellated network architecture that replaces single-core dependency with local closure, quorum identity, and bounded fallback operation.
Convex Arbitrage in Simulation: Why Structure Ages Better Than Prediction
In physical systems, certain properties persist regardless of how finely we attempt to observe them. These are not artifacts of modeling choices. They are invariants. When validation ignores these constraints, it becomes retrospective and fragile.
Louisiana Grid Siting Strategy Report
Actionable Parish Shortlist for Hyperscale, Industrial, and AI-Scale Loads (2026–2030). Author's lens: downstream operator + interconnection reality. This is not a marketing map; it's a build-order strategy.
Why Empty Miles Are No Longer the Real Cost — Timing Is
What live terminal behavior is now revealing that most logistics networks still miss. For years, logistics optimization has focused on the same set of levers: reducing empty miles, improving asset utilization, tightening dispatch, and protecting margin through efficiency. Those still matter. But they're no longer where the biggest losses hide.
Street Turns Are Not an Optimization — They Are a Structural Signal
Results from Daily Recursive Detection Across U.S. Terminals (November–Present). Since mid-November, we've been running a street-turn detection engine daily across multiple U.S. container terminals. The goal was not to model opportunity or forecast behavior, but to observe real reuse as it occurs.
Why Malls Are Quietly One of the Best Data-Center Sites We Have
Most conversations about data centers start in the wrong place. They begin with land acquisition, greenfield builds, hyperscale campuses, or remote siting strategies. Meanwhile, one of the most utility-rich, structurally overbuilt, and underutilized building types in North America already exists—at scale. It's the suburban shopping mall.
Empirical Validation of a Graded, Viscosity-Selective Manufacturing Floor
We present an empirical computational validation of a graded, viscosity-selective manufacturing floor intended to localize hydrocarbon contamination while permitting water percolation. Using two-phase porous-media CFD in OpenFOAM v10, we demonstrate stable execution of a layered floor architecture under gravity-driven flow with strong viscosity contrast.
When Contracting Becomes the Cleaner Option
Hiring remains the right answer for most roles. But some categories of work no longer fit that model — not because the work is less important, but because it is episodic, cross-functional, and interpretive.
Stop Competing for Rare Earths. Compete in Production.
The current debate around rare earths is framed as a resource race: who controls supply, who can stockpile, who can choke exports first. That framing is already outdated. The real competition is not over materials. It's over who can produce function under constraint.
Patterns Precede Sensors
Most modern sensing architectures are built on a quiet assumption: If we see enough, soon enough, we'll understand what's happening. That assumption is increasingly backwards. In complex systems, patterns emerge before sensors resolve them. Sensors don't create understanding; they confirm it.
A Guide to Buyback Gains — Without Buybacks
How Low-Marginal IP Outperforms Capital Returns Under Production Constraints. When capital is forced back into production, the question is not whether shareholder value can still be created. It's whether firms understand where value actually compounds.
When Sensors Multiply, It's Usually a Geometry Problem
Modern sensing stacks are expensive for a reason — but it isn't the one most people think. The proliferation of sensors didn't happen because engineers were careless. It happened because geometry has never been allowed to carry certainty on its own. When geometry isn't trusted, systems compensate by adding viewpoints.
48–96 Hour Action Window
Over the next 48–96 hours, terminals and fleets that delay empty returns and prioritize local reuse will outperform by $75–$220 per container move relative to baseline contracts.
Fenway Tail Arbitrage — Target Board
Market-undervalued, CBT-fit profiles evaluated on run-value impact in failure states. Players ranked by tail suppression behavior at Fenway, not peak outcomes.
