Fork the future.

Peter Thiel argued it’s impossible to innovate in a culture built on copying. Yet China, by mastering one-to-infinity, is out-engineering the Western world.

All that already works can and should be scaled up. Emergent properties are the fascinating thing with scale. Probably because most people stop at 80%, the remaining 20, which often is where massive unlock sits, is left to compounding outsiders bold enough to go all the way.

Cursor and Windsurf are good examples of this. They're forks of open-source VS Code iterating on great user experience and a merging of emerging systems, and now are worth billions of dollars in valuation.

Scaling open source, we believe, is a strong vertical to attempt. It's measurable. Perfect base to grow a tribe. And scales predictably.

Moore's law for all that works is the core idea.

The future is forward deployment at scale.

Fork it.

For reference:

Fork — the act of taking an existing open-source project or system and creating a new, independent version of it that evolves in a different direction; often toward use cases the original creators didn’t anticipate or weren’t willing to pursue.

Forward deployment — the strategy of pushing new technology or innovation directly into real-world environments early, often before it's fully polished, to maximize learning, adoption, and impact.
