about me

> Hi, I'm Leonardo A. Cruz. A modern technology industrialist currently working on crystal-ball.xyz and earn.cpowerenergy.com. My goal is to maximize the amount of clean energy that is currently available in the fastest, most efficient way possible. I greatly value the advancements in science and technology that exist today and am on a lifelong learning journey to see where the frontier goes.

When I am not working, you can find me practicing yoga, breathwork, riding my bike, enjoying the outdoors, reading, writing, jogging, playing chess, poker, basketball, golf, or tennis. Also currently writing a short story about a pirate who is trapped in a turtle shell by a voodoo witch. It is a love story.

Occasionally I help:

  • facility and energy managers get paid to use a little less power when the grid needs it
  • companies with backup generators or batteries earn revenue from equipment they already own
  • businesses with high power bills understand their utility rates and lower their peak-demand charges
  • fellow lifelong learners who want to conceptualize where the energy technology market is heading

If any of that sounds like you, reach out.

An example of first-principles thinking with an AI agent is this exchange:“How do I go about doing X (in this case, we can use the example of connecting from my iPhone to my iMac computer)? Tell me the different pieces that are needed. Respond in one paragraph and one sentence.”{AI explains}You ask follow-up questions about the AI’s explanation and parts of it that are new to you.Once you have a goal in place, you move on to step 2.continue reading article >
