At Home in the Levant, plate 15 of 25
Computing Is Local Infrastructure
A community network that keeps working offline.

The plate in brief
The building runs its own small network on a low-power core, with AI nodes that wake up when they’re needed. It hosts a local wiki of community knowledge, translation between Hebrew, Arabic, and English, repair help, tutoring, booking for shared tools and rooms, and building care like irrigation and leak detection. The cloud is optional.
If the internet goes down, the core controls stay local and the building keeps working. The illustrative average compute load is one to three kilowatts, and the real capacity should follow the workloads people actually run.
