I love Fedi because the safety tools that the platform provides mean that I generally have a positive experience whenever I open the app. Certainly it's far rarer that Fedi ruins my day than any other social media platform.

But unfortunately because a small number of people absolutely refuse to engage with any of the safety tools of the platform, sometimes my day still gets ruined.

This isn't Twitter, this isn't Tumblr, your dangerous incompetence isn't cute. Put content warnings on your shit.

The Afghan national who has been charged with shooting two members of the West Virginia National Guard this week was reportedly a member of the elite Afghan “Zero Unit” forces backed by the CIA — with the U.S. spy agency apparently having struck a 2021 deal with these Afghan commandos to bring thousands of the fighters and their families to the United States


CIA cut deal bringing 'Afghan Zero Unit' fighters, including accused guardsman killer to the U.S.

The CIA helped bring thousands of its Afghan partner forces — called the "Zero Unit" — to the U.S. under Joe Biden's watch, following the shambolic evacuation from Afghanistan in 2021.

According to a former intelligence officer who spoke with Just the News who declined to be identified, the terms of the deal were that if the Zeroes helped secure Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA) during the chaotic non-combatant evacuation operation (NEO) then, in exchange for that and for their years of coordination with the U.S. spy agency, the fighters and their families would earn an airlift to the U.S.

alright #gm what's happening today ...

cad designs in the morning. then maybe some more shop cleanup and later if i feel like it i may just swap ECUs in the civic and see if i can connect the tuning software on my windows VM on my laptop.

i want to just get the engine running on stock fueling using a base map and see how it runs. then tune for the new fuel components, which should deliver around 2-4x more fuel than stock

well, the one time a MS executive was testifying under oath to the French legislature, we got a crystal-clear answer:

Sadly my alma mater opted to recontinue its Office 365 contract. Sadly, Trump and Vance's disdain for a pusillanimous Europe unwilling to assume the burdens of sovereignty is no less galling for being richly deserved.

The answer more savvy outfits like AWS are peddling is Confidential Computing, i.e. AMD TEE, but that does not protect against Denial of Service (as happened to the ICC), and the opacity of the implementation does not guarantee there aren't NSA backdoors in it.

The Next Big Thing won’t be AI—because something that’s already everywhere doesn’t count as “next” anymore. It’ll be everything AI made you miss.

I’ve spent enough time watching hype cycles spin like a malfunctioning ceiling fan to finally say this with a straight face: the Next Big Thing isn’t a single thing at all. It’s a cluster of technologies that quietly moved from “sci-fi” to “oh wow this actually works” while everybody else was still arguing about whether a chatbot could replace a copywriter.

Synthetic biology is the first one. People still hear “synbio” and imagine glowing frogs or ethically questionable Jurassic Park internships, but the real story is that we can now program cells like we program servers. Not perfectly. Not cleanly. And definitely not without the occasional fermentation tantrum. But we’re crossing the threshold where enzymes, materials, fuels and drugs can be brewed like beer. This isn’t replacing one industry. It’s rewiring half the economy. And unlike crypto, you can actually hold a bioreactor and it doesn’t ask you to “HODL.”

Stats:

  • Global synthetic-biology market size ≈ USD 14.3 billion in 2024.
  • Projected synthetic-biology market size ≈ USD 63.8 billion by 2032 (CAGR ~20.7%).
  • VC / private investment into the synbio sector in 2024: USD 12.2 billion.
  • Global industrial enzymes market (a major synbio-driven sub-sector) ≈ USD 13.94 billion in 2024.
  • Drop in cost of genome-scale sequencing/synthesis over past two decades — enabling widespread bio-engineering (i.e. plummeting input costs for synbio R&D).

Batteries aren’t just improving. They’re mutating. Sodium-ion is the breakout star — cheap, abundant, non-flammable — and it blows a hole straight through the old lithium-only worldview. Suddenly grid storage gets affordable, EVs dodge fragile supply chains, and home batteries stop being luxury items. Add metal-air, iron-air and silicon-anode chemistries on top and you get a future where electrons are plentiful, storage is cheap and “energy scarcity” becomes a phrase future generations hear only in museums.

Stats:

  • Global value of battery packs in EVs and storage today is about $120B, projected to reach nearly $500B by 2030 in the IEA’s net-zero scenario.
  • The battery energy storage system market is forecast to grow from $37.2B in 2024 to $106.0B by 2030.
  • Global grid-scale battery storage capacity needs to expand 35×, reaching about 970 GW by 2030, to stay on a net-zero pathway.
  • Sodium-ion batteries are projected to grow from $0.67B in 2025 to $2.01B by 2030, a 24.7% CAGR, as a cheaper alternative to lithium-ion.
  • China’s sodium-ion market alone is expected to jump from 10 GWh in 2025 to 292 GWh by 2034, with the country supplying >90% of global sodium-ion production by 2030.

Next up is geothermal, which is the closest thing we have to a cheat code for the energy transition. It’s not a fantasy anymore. It’s directional drilling, fiber-optic sensing and heat reservoirs sitting under your feet quietly whispering, “Please free us so we can power your entire civilization.” As long as we don’t crack the crust of the Earth like an overcooked crème brûlée, this becomes 24/7 baseload renewable power. And every hyperscaler wants it yesterday.

Stats:

  • 800 GW – That’s roughly the global geothermal capacity that could be deployed by 2050 under cost-effective scaling, enough to meet a large slice of rising electricity demand.
  • 6,000 TWh/yr – The same modelling shows geothermal could generate ~6,000 terawatt-hours per year, equivalent to the current combined electricity demand of the U.S. + India.
  • 16.9 GW – That’s the installed global geothermal electricity capacity as of end-2024. We haven’t tapped even 2% of the upside yet.
  • USD 9.8 B → USD 13.6 B by 2030 — Market size growth forecast (CAGR ~5.3%) for the global geothermal energy market.
  • ≥ 700 M USD – Private-sector fundraising into geothermal over the last few years; capital flow accelerating as technologies mature and risk drops.

Water tech is the sleeper. Nobody thinks about water until they don’t have any. But membranes, desalination upgrades and atmospheric water generation are hitting the same quiet tipping point solar hit in 2009. First they’re niche. Then they’re boring. Then they’re everywhere. And we’re heading into a decade where “local water manufacturing” becomes as normal as local energy generation. When water becomes infrastructure you can deploy, regions rewrite their entire economic futures.

Stats:

  • USD 20.6B – estimated global water-desalination market value in 2024.
  • USD 44.0 B – projected size of the global desalination market by 2033 (CAGR ~12.8%) as water stress and technology adoption rise.
  • USD 2.45B – estimated global market for atmospheric water-generation systems in 2023.
  • USD 4.55 B – projected global atmospheric water-generation market by 2030 (CAGR ~9.4%) as scarcity and demand grow.
  • USD 35.9 B – approximate 2024 global value of water desalination and purification equipment, with forecasts targeting ~US$ 77.8 B by 2034 (8.3% CAGR) as infrastructure expands.

And finally, robotics. The one everyone thinks is already here, even though we’re barely in chapter two of the story. Robotics isn’t the future. Robotics is gravity now. Warehouses, hospitals, farms, construction sites, retail. Everywhere humans stand around doing repetitive physical tasks, a robot is slowly rolling up with the energy of “I’m not here to replace you, I’m here because nobody else applied.” The labour shortage isn’t going away. Robots aren’t hype. They’re inevitability with motors.

Stats

  • ≈ 4.66 million industrial robots are now operating globally (2024) — up ~9% from last year.
  • USD 53.2 billion — estimated size of the global robotics market in 2024.
  • Forecast to hit ≈ USD 178.7 billion by 2033 (CAGR ~16% from 2025-33).
  • Warehouse-robotics subset alone was USD 5.82 billion in 2024, projected to reach ≈ USD 18 billion by 2032.
  • At least USD 4.35 billion was invested globally into robotics startups just in July 2025 (93 funding rounds).

So when I talk about the Next Big Thing, I’m not talking about a trend.

I’m talking about the rising stack of real-world technologies that quietly crossed the threshold from “interesting” to “inevitable” while everyone else was still hypnotized by language models arguing about how to spell “solopreneur.” This is biology you can brew, energy you can bottle, heat you can tap, water you can manufacture and machines that don’t get tired.

This is the moment where physical technology stops waiting its turn and finally bulldozes past the digital world. The real breakthroughs aren’t happening on your screen. They’re happening under your feet, in your factories, in your grid, in your water supply, and soon in every corner of the built environment.

And for once, the revolution won’t be an app—it’ll be the infrastructure that makes apps look small.

A white humanoid robot with large, glowing blue eyes looks up toward the camera. Its smooth plastic face has a small, friendly smile. Soft blue accent lights run along its head and shoulders. It holds a tablet in front of its chest, and the background shows a tiled wall and warm wooden paneling.

I’d love tech CEOs to stick to a lane. Either AI makes workers so much more productive that they need to do layoffs or there’s so much work to and so few people to do it that everyone needs to work nights and weekends.

Now it just comes across that layoffs are happening for economic reasons with AI as a convenient cover story.
