I pride myself on creating ways to use technology in unique ways and using the right technology for the job.

@jonstephens85 I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Can I get another intro to your old team?

@timcoolmode @KytenTech @zachglabman There is a lot of sw that massively accelerates hw design, testing, & manufacturing. But it takes lived-experience in this process to design it. We'll be applying our lived-experience to build said sw.

I quit my job at SpaceX, the only company to crack volume aerospace manufacturing, to build an aerospace component supplier (@kytentech) on @zachglabman's thesis below. I want to highlight a couple of his best insights & add my perspective to them: "The response I hear to [the absence of a domestic drone/robotics supply chain] is “we do have [domestic] suppliers but they are too expensive” The money and talent supporting new defense/manufacturing has overwhelmingly gone to OEMs. Everybody wants to be the SpaceX of their sector, but they're stuck with a supply chain built for Boeing; expensive, slow, and specialized. It's unusable. "the valley of death for robotics and drone startups is entirely a scale problem in the US. We have great prototyping, but no direct path to scaling with partners here in the US in an economically feasible way." Given the current state of the US supply chain, I cannot put into words how difficult scaling hardware manufacturing is. Starlink did it because they stood on the shoulders of Tesla's process knowledge, had the most talent-dense team in the world, unlimited cash, and pushed as hard as humanly possible. This is not a repeatable formula. There’s no law that says these actuators must come from Shenzhen, in fact there probably will be one that says they can’t. The DoD is prohibited from procuring battery cells or packs from China starting on Oct. 1st, 2027. @KytenTech is the Shenzhen-esque alternative. China, Japan, Korea and Germany all did one thing very well, and that was understanding the relative importance of component supply chains (Tiers 2, 3, 4) to building great end products. If you look at Tesla/SpaceX and your takeaway is that vertical integration is the way to start a manufacturing company...you are wrong. It's a survival response to a supply chain that can't meet your needs. There is no reindustrialization without strong, allied component supply chains. @2112Power is right when he says we need 20 more Hadrians.
