Measure space. Without a ruler.

Can you measure the size of a slice of space by counting events? The 60-second explainer — video and full text — of the separator-counting paper: count the two causal layers straddling a slice, correct exactly for the diamond's edges, and the prediction lands within 0.8% of the simulations.

Robots can do the work. Almost none of it pays yet.

Anthropic's robot exposure index finds robots and AI together reach about 80% of U.S. job tasks by working time — and that robots are cost-competitive for 0.3% of tasks today. We read the study. Here is what it measured, what holds up, and what it means for Michigan plants.

Oakland County is losing jobs. Here is why.

Oakland County has about 9,600 fewer employed residents than a year ago while the rest of metro Detroit edges up. The losses concentrate in engineering services and auto work — an EV pullback, a bank merger, and jobs consolidating out of the county — and an August drop that looked statistical, with a dated update on what the next releases showed. The numbers, and the evidence behind each cause.
