Why: bipedal maybe not, but non-flying can usually carry more.

Well humanoid / non-flying robotic weapons are already being used, and have been for a while. e.g. Zelenskyy https://x.com/KaterynaLis/status/2043827043863863404?s=20 talking about their successful use recently.

He’s not talking about humanoid robots. He’s talking about tracked and wheeled weapons platforms that are essentially small RC tanks.

I get 10g symmetric in Austin for $150/m. I had Cox before, and it was $180ish for 1g down and ~50mb up. Things are improving!


Because Google Fiber HQed there. Come to Houston, where you'll pay >$200/mo for 5Gbit if AT&T covers your area or MUCH LESS if Ezee is an option.

What provider has 10G? Highest I've seen is 5. Genuine question - I'll keep them in mind next time I move across town!


You can get 8gb fibre for around $65/usd a month in Toronto.

I'm Russ, one of the founders of 9 Mothers. We're making AI weapon systems out of Austin, TX. Our first product is for stopping group 1 suicide drones. We started in 2025 - still a small team under 20 people. We're hiring for a lot of roles, but mostly in software and robotics.

Cool! Are you interested in defense? If so, we're based in Austin, TX and in the current YC batch.


Are you interested in more robotics / defense?



Ditto. Though, I fixed my M1. I have an M4 max for work; the nano screen is a win. The perf is better, but it's really marginal unless actually doing stuff with the GPU, then it's super slow compared to a decent GPU anyway (i.e. h100, gb etc)


One of our engineers built a web-app crawler from scratch (why? enable users to quickly build a QA test plan). Jiri researched existing crawlers first and found nothing: he wrote about why build from scratch, plus technical challenges he ran into.


So good!
