204.8T of Switching Capacity Per Tray in the AMD Helios AI Rack
At HPE Discover 2026, the most interesting thing I found on the networking side was not a GPU.

Early Mornings and Quiet Water in Naples, Florida
I recently spent a few days in Naples, Florida, and it ended up being one of those trips that felt simple in the best way. The weather was perfect the entire time. Warm, calm, and predictable, which made it easy to settle into a routine. I found myself waking up around 5:30 every morning without…

Leavenworth, Washington: Bavarian Charm, Mountain Views, and the Cost of Getting There
Leavenworth, Washington sits tucked into the Cascade Mountains, a small town that committed fully to a Bavarian identity decades ago and somehow made it work.
