Due Diligence Field Guide
A household motto turned into a portable checklist: the one-sentence screen, three comprehension deficits, six questions that cost something to answer, and the red-flag pairings that separate earned strategy from borrowed language.

The Human-Centered Alibi
The humane case for AI is sound, which is why the most accomplished users of it are the people it was written to restrain — flattening versus preserved judgement, contextualisation versus comprehension, and a six-question audit that costs something to answer.

The Quantum Comprehension Premium
Fabulism as a capital-allocation error — three comprehension deficits with distinct write-downs, a one-sentence diligence screen, and the premium stated so it can be measured.

The Gravity That Will Not Quantize
A mainstream post describes the quantum-gravity problem as a 'quiet scandal.' The scandal is real. The quiet part is ending.

The Interface Changed How We Learn
A field note on the @SciTechera claim that AI changed access and speed but not learning. The correction: the interface did change how we learn, and that is the whole problem.

The Profit Case for Humane AI
Public hostility read as a price signal — sycophancy as a balance-sheet item, trust as a retention asset, extraction as a loan against the customer, and four positions a CFO can defend.

Strategic Resilience in the Post-Prime Era
The Riemann singularity and the lattice transition — what actually rests on RH, why the machinery is the threat rather than the theorem, the silent decryption disadvantage, and the case for hybrid post-quantum geometry.
