  @bscholl $ASTS Blake Scholl Discovers AST’s Thesis, Then Forgets AST Exists Blake correctly identifies the hybrid terrestrial/satellite future, then skips enough due diligence to declare Starlink the “only good” satellite network while ignoring the company purpose-built for exactly that architecture. AST SpaceMobile has nearly 60 MNO relationships representing roughly 3 billion subscribers. AT&T and Verizon are strategic partners. Vodafone, Rakuten, Bell, TELUS and stc are partners. Vodafone, Orange, Telefónica and Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile’s parent, are now conducting integration testing across Europe using ordinary smartphones and carrier spectrum. The fatal blow to Blake’s premise arrived three months before his post: AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon announced a technology-neutral D2D venture explicitly intended to support multiple satellite providers, preserve existing agreements and increase competition. The carriers’ published strategy is the opposite of surrendering themselves to an exclusive Starlink bottleneck. The products are not equivalent either. T-Mobile still advises using Starlink outdoors with a clear view of the sky and warns that coverage may be unavailable inside buildings, aircraft and other obstructed locations. AST’s giant phased arrays are designed to provide carrier-integrated broadband, including voice, video, apps and “one wall in” connectivity. AST is carrier-neutral infrastructure that aligns with MNOs instead of trying to subordinate them. Blake identified the future, ignored one of its central companies, contradicted the carriers’ actual strategy, and typed “QED?” as if kissing Elon’s *** were a substitute for due diligence.

  DEAR AT&T and TELUS, Are you paying attention? A company is only as good as it's service and attention to the most remote and poorest members of its service area. (I still say the same thing about unions too). When areas in SE Alaska don't have phone and internet their lives are highly at risk. It's not just about a drop in communications, gaming, streaming movies or social media. It's a drop in safety tools for these island dwellers too. Not to mention that with millions of tourists every year robbing the locals of bandwidth with high data traffic locals end up in last place as highpaying users for lack of competition. Ketchikan’s main internet (KPU fiber via the Canada route, plus cellular from providers like GCI/AT&T) has "finite capacity". When multiple cruise ships dock and thousands of tourists flood downtown with phones and devices, and that shared bandwidth gets congested—slowing speeds for everyone. When the service is down, many local busineses lose the use of POS machines (but still pay the rent to have them). Starlink solves this in several practical ways: -independant backup, -reliable pathways and -outage resilience. Starlink is already a tremendous service for the Alaska Marine Highway System which is a class 1 essential service for SE Alaska, whereby these ferries are often the only way form of transportation between island communities for so many of these remote residents. In this age of high technology, the current tools, even with their own redundancies, just don't offer enough protections. This isn't an advertisement nor do I get paid for mentioning Starlink. But I will post pricing for SE Alaska residents because these remote areas need options: As of August 2026, Starlink’s regular U.S. Residential pricing (which applies in Southeast Alaska) is: Residential 100 Mbps: $55/month Residential 200 Mbps: $85/month Residential MAX: $130/month New customers can download the Starlink mobile app and the sign up opens on the initial screen. Competition is a beautiful thing. Just saying...

  9/ Then start applying to legitimate platforms. Examples worth researching include: • DataAnnotation • Outlier • Appen • TELUS Digital AI Community • Scale AI ecosystem • Other verified AI evaluation/data-annotation companies But don't assume every platform accepts workers everywhere. Country, language, project demand and eligibility can change. Always check the current listing before applying. 10/ Here's something most “make money with AI” posts won't tell you: Getting accepted is NOT the same as getting consistent work. AI-training work is often project-based. Workers report differences in task availability, pay and acceptance rates across platforms and projects. So don't quit your current income source because someone showed you a $50/hour screenshot. Treat it as an opportunity until you've actually established consistent work.
