How we moved from $150/hr to $25K/mo retainers to equity deals. The psychology and math behind each pricing model.
Hard-won lessons from evaluating dozens of ML vendors and consultancies. What to look for, what to run from, and how to structure engagements that actually deliver production systems instead of impressive demos.
A technical analysis of machine learning applications across upstream, midstream, and downstream oil & gas operations — covering what works today, what is overhyped, and where the highest-value opportunities exist for ML teams.
Schema evolution, backfill strategies, dead-letter queues, and the monitoring stack that lets you actually sleep at night.

After deploying ML systems in manufacturing, oil & gas, defense, and biotech, I've found that 80% of the architecture is the same. Here are the seven patterns that work everywhere and the 20% you must customize.
Cross-platform inference, quantization workflows, graph optimization, and benchmarks across CPU, GPU, and edge devices.
Real-time ML systems cost 5-20x more than batch systems, and most teams discover this after deployment. A breakdown of the infrastructure, operational, and organizational costs that never appear in the initial architecture diagram.
How we built a property valuation and investment analytics platform that processes 12 million listings, integrates satellite imagery and census data, and produces valuations within 4.2% of appraised values across 30 metro areas.
The assumption that existing DevOps practices translate directly to ML systems is the root cause of most MLOps failures. ML systems have fundamentally different failure modes, testing requirements, and deployment patterns that demand purpose-built operational practices.
