@Bitdeer's Jon Wonsettler recently hosted Kelly Byer and Andrew Dolph for an ‘under the hood’ walkabout of our #Massillon# facility. We showcase the site design features that minimize environmental impact, including: 🔇 40ft sound walls to keep ambient noise under 60dB at the property line. 💦 Closed-loop water cooling system enabling limited and responsible usage of resources. At #Bitdeer#, we are committed to being a responsible, #CommunityFirst# partner. 💼 Apart from creating over 50 full-time employment opportunities that bring local talents such as Ezekiel Martin back home.

$KTOS: Kratos today announced that construction of its Indiana Payload Integration Facility (IPIF) for Hypersonic Systems located in Crane, Indiana, has been completed ahead of schedule. The 68,000-square-foot facility is fully equipped to perform advanced manufacturing, integration and testing of experimental hypersonic payloads. The IPIF engineering team will utilize enhanced workflows to simultaneously integrate, test and prepare up to six experimental payloads for critical hypersonic vehicles supporting programs like the Multi-Service Advanced Capabilities Hypersonic Testbed (MACH-TB). This new facility demonstrates Kratos’ steadfast commitment to advancing hypersonic system development and expanding the industrial base needed to accelerate Mach 5+ flight testing. The facility is expected to create over 100 high-tech jobs, with an estimated average annual wage of $80,000+, with significant hiring underway.

The AI boom is creating a generational divide in software jobs: US software developer employment for those aged 22-25 has declined -23% since November 2022, when ChatGPT was launched. At the same time, the 26-30 age group has seen a decrease of -5%. By comparison, employment among software developers aged 41-49 has risen +18% over the same period. This creates a 41 percentage point gap between the youngest and one of the most experienced groups within the same profession. Meanwhile, early-career workers in the most AI-exposed jobs have experienced a -16% decline in employment relative to less-exposed occupations and more experienced peers since November 2022, even after adjusting for firm-specific shocks. By contrast, employment among workers in less AI-exposed fields, as well as more experienced workers within the same occupations, has remained steady or continued to grow. The AI revolution is wiping out entry-level tech jobs.
