Atlas of the Present

Collect the state of technical reality — and keep it true.

The Atlas of the Present is a public, editorially maintained living map of technical reality. It is not a news site, not a future-explainer blog, and not an opinion outlet.

The assignment is: collect the state of technical reality — and keep it true. What appears here should be checkable. What cannot be checked is filed as a claim, or omitted.

Three layers

Established now · E1 / E2

Established now

What stands on named evidence: reproduced, measured, in operational use. Grades E1 and E2.

Claimed · E3

Claimed

What is said but not shown: announcements, demos without transfer, single results without confirmation. Grade E3.

Constrained · Limit

Constrained

Where it fails by design: energy, fabrication, data, physics, institutions. The limit is part of the state.

Dossiers

Twelve fields. Every entry follows the same structure. As of 27 October 2026. Three openings today: dossier 06 proteins — truncating the target protein to the interface window keeps the binding site almost unchanged across 15 targets and 3,666 designs (median CαRMSD 0.37 Å), cuts RFdiffusion and AlphaFold3 GPU time by about 88% in one epitope, and an agentic loop with a human in the loop raises the computational hit rate under a fixed budget from 5.06% to 9.33% (E2); dossier 12 linkages — in a model calibrated to German 2025 data, price-responsive EV charging raises the local-grid peak by 260% if wholesale prices are assumed fixed, but by only 5% when prices respond to charging demand (E2); dossier 04 quantum computing — frequency-multiplexed gates over shared control lines, shown at a 1:4 ratio: parallel CZ gates with mean error (6.4±0.2)×10⁻³, XY gates about 1.1×10⁻³, without statistically significant multiplexing-induced degradation; one to two orders of magnitude fewer lines is a projection (E2). Still unchecked by Josef.

What this atlas is not

Not a news site and not a ticker.
Not an explainer blog for “the future”.
Not an opinion outlet and not a forecasting stage.
