My guest today is Dara Khosrowshahi, the CEO of Uber. Before Uber, Dara ran Expedia for thirteen years. We start with why he took this job in 2017, and a big part of that story is Daniel Ek, who told him that life is not about happiness, it is about impact. We talk about what the chaos felt like on day one, and how his family leaving Iran when he was nine shaped the way he handles pressure today.  We spend most of our time on autonomous vehicles and Uber's role as the demand aggregator in a world of physical AI. Dara explains why Uber is a supply-led company, what it will take to win, and why he expects many winners in AVs rather than one.  We also discuss Uber's $10 billion in free cash flow, the push toward a single app for everything, and what he has learned from Allen & Co, Barry Diller and Reed Hastings.

Send us Fan Mail#385 - We runners love a challenge! So this week, I'm talking about 12 of the most dangerous trails in the US. They are dangerous for different reasons; some trails have huge elevation gains in short distances, while others have tricky and possibly dangerous trails while others are home to dangerous animals. Which one of these trails frighten you the most? You'll find out which one scares me the most! PS: I didn't include those trails that could be considered mountain climbing as that's not hiking or trail running. Also, I have individual episodes on the longest trails in the US and will continue those episodes on separate episodes. Fit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showMartha Runs the World websitehttps://www.buzzsprout.com/248027Email:martharunstheworld@gmail.comYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@martharunstheworldInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/martharunstheworld/#

Thousands of years ago, Ancient Greek travellers created a list of the most extraordinary sights they encountered: the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. These included places like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Lighthouse of Alexandria, and the Colossus of Rhodes. Today though, only one still survives: the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. So, in the early 2000s, a huge international campaign called the “New Seven Wonders of the World” aimed to create a modern list of wonders. Some governments launched campaigns encouraging citizens to vote for their country's monument. Critics argued that countries with larger populations had an unfair advantage. And UNESCO, the United Nations organisation responsible for protecting world heritage sites, was not involved in the project. So today, I want to explore the story behind the New Seven Wonders of the World. What are they? Why were they chosen? And do they really deserve the title of “wonder”? And we will do all of this while learning some new vocabulary and practicing your English listening comprehension.

Thank you For Listening. Click here to Send us a comment if you have any thoughts on the episode! The hardest part of a mission isn't always the heat, the long days, or the doors that never open. Sometimes it's the quiet moment in an airport when you realize you're about to leave a life that changed you, and you're scared of slipping back into the old version of yourself. Spencer Hutcheson just returned from serving as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Tucson, Arizona, and he joins me while the experience is still fresh, honest, and emotionally real.  We talk through the chaos of getting home, the reunion with family, and the line that has stayed with me ever since: “I don't want to go back to my nets.” From there, we get into what that means for returned missionaries and for anyone trying to live as a disciple of Jesus Christ when life gets busy. Spencer opens up about starting his mission without a strong personal testimony, leaning on his parents' faith at first, and why he chose to serve anyway because he needed to know for himself.  We also hit the practical side: work and school after a mission, job shadowing, resisting comparison, and building simple routines that keep spiritual momentum alive like early mornings, scriptures before the phone, prayer morning and night, service, and consistent temple worship. Spencer shares an MTC night he wanted to quit, the prayer that changed everything, and why going “all in” is what brings the deep feeling of accomplishment at the end.  If you feel nervous about serving, coming home, or helping someone you love who's struggling, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify with your biggest takeaway.Beyond The BeaconJoin Bishop Kevin Sweeney for inspired interviews with Catholics living out our faith!Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Fit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showThanks for listening!  Keep on Striving!Don't Forget to leave a review and rating.  Let us know your thoughts about the episode.  You can also follow on the following:YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@thejacksonhowellpodcastFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/TheJacksonHowellPodcastTik Tokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@thejacksonhowellpodcastInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/jacksonhowell5/

Today, we are breaking down Toast, a name we have covered before but are revisiting because the story has changed enough to be worth telling again. Most listeners will have tapped a Toast terminal without thinking much about the business behind it.  Our guest is Sean Barrett, founder, managing partner, and chief investment officer of Counter Global, who holds Toast as one of his largest positions and walks us through how a restaurant point of sale company became the operating system that runs the restaurant. He argues that Toast is best understood as the operating system for the restaurant rather than a payments terminal with software attached, and that the business grows as fast and as profitably as it does because the company spent years building purpose-built hardware, a multi-tenant software platform, and a sales force on the ground before it moved into new markets across grocery, enterprise, hospitality, and international.  We also discuss why a business winning roughly half of new restaurant openings in the United States still trades at a multiple that looks closer to a mature company than a category killer. Please enjoy this Breakdown of Toast.

My guest today is Dan Loeb, the founder and CEO of Third Point.  Dan started Third Point in 1995 with a few million dollars, and today the firm manages over 24 billion across equities, corporate and structured credit, venture, and insurance.  He is best known for his activist work at companies like Sotheby's, Sony, and Yahoo, and for the public letters he has written to boards over the years. What I find most interesting about Dan is how much his approach has evolved across thirty years.  He came up as a credit and event-driven investor at Warburg Pincus and Jefferies, built Third Point, then layered in quality investing, thematic technology investing, and now a very large credit business that sits alongside the hedge fund. We cover how he thinks about the AI stack and the companies inside it he believes matter most, the difference between good and bad governance, what FTX taught him about due diligence, the Sony and Sotheby's stories, and the power of writing.

In this episode of The Brainstorm, Brett, Nick and Sam are joined by Daniel Maguire and Tasha Keeney to discuss the expected June 12th initial public offering (IPO) of SpaceX. SpaceX's recently filed S-1 revealed a significant opportunity across launch, Starlink, AI compute, and orbital data centers. The team unpacks the bull and bear cases, Starship's role, and whether SpaceX could become the backbone of future AI infrastructure.Key Points From This Episode:SpaceX's S-1 reframed the company as an AI infrastructure story, with xAI, Colossus data centers, and the Anthropic deal suggesting a major opportunity beyond launch and Starlink.Starship is the key unlock, potentially driving launch costs below $100/kg, accelerating Starlink bandwidth deployment, and making orbital data centers economically viable.The biggest risks are execution and monetization, including Starship reusability timelines, turning bandwidth into revenue, staying competitive at the AI frontier, and managing potential future integration with Tesla.If you know ARK, you know we focus on long-term innovation.

Elyrea sells a kind of tour no traveler would think to search for, and Jean-Vladimir Deniau built the whole company around that fact.Jean-Vladimir Deniau is the founder of Elyrea, a French company that builds character-based immersive performances for the tourism market. The format is specific: a professional actor embodies a historical figure, Coco Chanel near Place Vendôme, Hemingway around Montparnasse, a GI on Omaha Beach, and walks a small group through that figure's neighborhood telling the story of their life. Deniau does not call himself a tour operator. He calls Elyrea a "Lego brick" that DMCs and tour operators build into the experiences they sell. The company has 15 of these performances running, almost all in France, and there is a structural problem at the center of it: nobody knows to ask for a tour with Coco Chanel, so the business cannot wait for B2C search demand. That one fact shapes how Elyrea picks its characters, how it sells, and how it funds itself.Mitch and Deniau cover the business behind the tours. Why Elyrea sells to the trade first and keeps its strongest tours off OTAs entirely. The capital-light model that built 15 tours with no outside investor. The four design rules behind a 90-minute performance, starting with the claim that you win or lose the audience in the first minute. And the recruitment problem of training an actor who learns the whole show, performs twice, and quits because the street is not the theater. Deniau also names the advice he would give any operator building an emotional experience: stay true to the place, do not overplay it, and keep the technology out of the way.Resources:Elyrea: elyrea.comLive actor booking for trade partners: elyrea.com/booking"The Colossus of Marousi" by Henry Miller, the travel book Deniau cites as the original spark

SpaceX filed its public S-1 with the SEC, revealing 2025 revenue of $18.7 billion — up 33% year over year — anchored by Starlink's $11.4 billion connectivity segment. The Goldman-led syndicate is targeting a $1.75 to $2 trillion valuation, more than double the December 2025 tender offer mark, with a Nasdaq debut under SPCX as early as June. If it prices at range, it will be the largest IPO in history.Cerebras just had one of the biggest tech IPO debuts in years. The AI chip company listed at $185, opened at $350, and closed up 68% at $311 — giving it a roughly $95 billion valuation and making it the largest U.S. tech IPO since Uber. The AI hardware window is officially open, and the market is now treating non-NVIDIA AI infrastructure as a real public-market category.Cisco shocked the market with a major AI infrastructure guide. Revenue hit $15.84 billion, AI infrastructure orders were lifted from $5 billion to $9 billion for fiscal 2026, and the stock jumped 15%. The same day, Cisco cut 4,000 jobs to fund the pivot. The AI capex boom is no longer just NVIDIA — it is spreading into networking, optics, security, and the second layer of the infrastructure stack.The Trump-Xi Beijing summit ended without a formal AI deal. The U.S. cleared major Chinese companies including Alibaba, Tencent, ByteDance, JD, and Lenovo to buy up to 75,000 NVIDIA H200 chips each, but Beijing paused the orders almost immediately. AI infrastructure is no longer just a company-level decision — it is now a geopolitical bargaining chip.Google disclosed the first confirmed AI-built zero-day exploit used in the wild. The attack targeted a two-factor authentication flow in a widely used open-source system administration tool, and Google says the planned mass exploitation event was stopped before it scaled. The cybersecurity impact of AI is no longer theoretical — AI is now accelerating both offense and defense.Inflation came in hot again. April CPI rose 0.6% month over month, the Fed held rates at 3.50-3.75%, and markets are now pricing a higher chance of a rate hike than a cut. And yet the S&P 500 still closed above 7,500, while the Nasdaq and Dow also hit major levels. The AI trade is overpowering the macro signal — for now.Runner-up: Anthropic and the Gates Foundation signed a $200 million four-year partnership directing grants, Claude credits, and engineering support toward global health, K-12 tutoring, and smallholder-farm agronomy. The deal lands the same week Anthropic absorbed Colossus 1 and signed Google for $200 billion in TPUs. The model lab is becoming an infrastructure-scale institution.Runner-up: VoltaGrid raised $1 billion from Blackstone and Halliburton at a $10 billion-plus valuation to build behind-the-meter power systems for AI data centers. Power, not just chips, is becoming one of the biggest constraints in the AI boom.Runner-up: Amazon is reportedly preparing another 14,000 corporate layoffs, which would bring 2026 reductions to roughly 30,000 jobs if confirmed. The AI labor reduction cycle is widening across Big Tech.Runner-up: A former Google engineer was convicted of stealing TPU trade secrets after transferring more than 500 confidential files tied to Google's AI chip architecture and software stack.

For decades, aging was seen as inevitable — a slow and irreversible decline. But a growing number of scientists now believe we may be entering a turning point, with research increasingly focused on extending not just how long we live, but how well we live.In the documentary Forever Young, filmmaker David Donnelly — alongside producers Dr. James Johnson and Dr. Thomas Lewis — explores the rapidly evolving world of longevity science, from biological clocks and AI-driven research to the power of lifestyle, purpose, and social connection.The film also confronts some of the field's biggest questions: what aging actually is, whether it should be treated as a disease, and who stands to benefit if the science succeeds. In this conversation with Peter Bowes, Donnelly reflects on skepticism, scientific disagreement, and why he believes humanity may already be living through a longevity revolution.--Learn more about Forever Young: The end of aging has just begunApple TV Pre-order | Official Website | Substack | Instagram | X | Facebook | YouTube | Watch the Trailer--DISCLOSURE: This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

SpaceX ha dado el paso definitivo hacia los mercados financieros. La compañía aeroespacial de Elon Musk ya ha comunicado oficialmente a la Comisión de Bolsa y Valores de Estados Unidos su intención de debutar en el Nasdaq bajo el símbolo SPCX durante el próximo mes de junio. Se trata de una de las operaciones bursátiles más esperadas de los últimos años y, si se cumplen las previsiones, la empresa podría alcanzar una valoración cercana a los 1,75 billones de dólares. Con esa cifra, la firma tecnológica se situaría entre las compañías con mayor capitalización del planeta. Además, la operación pretende captar alrededor de 80.000 millones de dólares, un volumen récord para una oferta pública inicial, superando ampliamente el estreno bursátil de Saudi Aramco en 2019. Para liderar esta histórica salida a Bolsa, SpaceX contará con Goldman Sachs como principal entidad coordinadora, aunque también participarán bancos de gran peso internacional como Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citigroup y JPMorgan Chase. Sin embargo, la documentación entregada a la SEC también ha revelado aspectos menos favorables sobre la situación financiera del grupo. Durante el primer trimestre del año, la compañía registró pérdidas de 4.200 millones de dólares pese a haber generado ingresos por 4.690 millones. Estas cifras reflejan el enorme coste operativo y de inversión que mantiene el conglomerado tecnológico en sus diferentes áreas de negocio. Dentro de la empresa, Starlink continúa siendo el principal motor económico. La división de internet satelital aportó el 69% de la facturación total, con ingresos de 3.260 millones de dólares y más de 10 millones de clientes activos en todo el mundo. Actualmente, es la única unidad rentable del grupo, ya que el negocio espacial acumuló pérdidas operativas de 619 millones de dólares y la división de inteligencia artificial perdió otros 2.500 millones durante el mismo periodo. En este contexto, adquiere especial relevancia el acuerdo estratégico con Anthropic, compañía dirigida por Dario Amodei, que deberá abonar 1.250 millones de dólares mensuales hasta 2029 para utilizar la capacidad informática del centro de datos Colossus 1. La documentación presentada también confirma el férreo control que Elon Musk conservará sobre la compañía tras su debut bursátil. El empresario mantendrá el 93% de las acciones con derecho a voto, lo que permitirá a SpaceX operar como una “empresa controlada” y evitar la obligación de incorporar consejeros independientes en su consejo de administración. Este movimiento llega en un momento de intensa actividad en los mercados, con numerosas tecnológicas preparando su salto bursátil. Entre ellas destaca OpenAI, rival directo de Musk en el ámbito de la inteligencia artificial, que según diversas informaciones planea salir a Bolsa en septiembre con el respaldo financiero de Goldman Sachs y Morgan Stanley, después de haber alcanzado una valoración de 122.000 millones de dólares en su última ronda de financiación apoyada por Amazon, Nvidia y SoftBank.

My guest today is Gavin Baker, founding partner and CIO of Atreides Management, and this is our sixth conversation. The central theme is watts and wafers, the two physical constraints that in Gavin's view will dictate the next phase of AI. On power, he thinks the near-term shortage starts to ease in 2027 and 2028 as new sources of energy come online, and that orbital compute solves it in the long term. On wafers, he explains what is different this time from the dotcom bubble and why TSMC's capacity decisions may be the single most important variable to watch. We also discuss Elon's Terrafab, the disaggregation of GPUs, the role of new chip companies, and whether the economic value of AI will keep accruing to frontier models.

“History is really interesting because it's about people. And people are interesting. So there are plenty of different ways of doing this, and I think there's room for everybody.” — Adrian Goldsworthy The greatest rivalry in antiquity is also uncomfortably relevant to us today. In Athens and Sparta: The Rivalry That Shaped Ancient Greece, the classical scholar Adrian Goldsworthy covers the long fifth century BC, from the Persian Wars that forced Athens and Sparta into alliance, through the Peloponnesian War that set them against each other. The parallels of the rivalry between Sparta and Athens are uncannily relevant today. Goldsworthy traces the NATO-like structure of the Athenian alliance, with its familiar complaint that the allies weren't paying enough. He notes that Athens, which outgrew its ability to grow its own food, had to secure its grain supply from the Black Sea — in the same way as closing the Straits of Hormuz has disrupted modern supply chains. And he observes that the Spartans won the Peloponnesian War by getting Persian money — while the Athenians were doing exactly the same thing. Persia, he notes, is always lurking in the background. There would be no “west” without it. Five Takeaways •       Athens and Sparta: Two Experiments, One Greek Longing: Both city states were driven by the same competitive Greek impulse — the desire to excel, to be the best. But they ran radically different experiments in how to achieve it. Athens: radical democracy, open society, maritime empire, philosophy, drama. Sparta: apartheid military state, in which a tiny Spartan elite was freed from all labour by a vast population of helots, so that they could devote their entire lives to being warriors and citizens. Two models for a polity that still structure political argument today. •       Thucydides: Essential but Embittered: The History of the Peloponnesian War is the essential source — and the problematic one. Thucydides was an Athenian general who failed to save a city from a Spartan-led force and went into exile as a result. He is analytical and apparently balanced in ways that seem modern. But he cannot hide his biases: the demagogue Cleon gets speeches written for him that make him look like a self-interested buffoon. And his silences are as revealing as his words — large events, including an Athenian disaster in Egypt, are mentioned only vaguely. He tells us what he wants to tell. •       The NATO Parallel: They Weren't Paying Enough: The Delian League — the Athenian alliance that emerged after the Persian Wars — has a structural similarity to NATO that Goldsworthy notes carefully. Athens, like the United States, is the dominant naval power that has mobilised for a great threat and then chosen not to demobilise. The allies, like European NATO members in successive administrations' complaints, weren't willing to send ships or men. They'd just send a bit of cash. The Athenian fleet ends up overwhelmingly Athenian. As the threat recedes, the other states increasingly resent the protection they're receiving from it. •       Persia Is Always There: The Spartans won the Peloponnesian War by securing subsidies from the Persian Empire. The Athenians were doing the same thing. The irony: both sides of the Greek world's greatest internal conflict ended up funded by the barbarian power they had united to defeat a generation earlier. Goldsworthy draws the modern parallel delicately: America is now fighting a war in Iran, once known as Persia. Europe chose not to join. The question of who Persia is in any given age is always live. Persia, he says, is always there. It always has been. •       Athens as a Theme Park: The Roman Legacy: In the Roman period, Athens and Sparta became what Goldsworthy calls “university cities or, in Sparta's case, a theme park.” Sparta, having lost any real military or political power, invented a public performance of its old customs — a tourist attraction for Roman visitors who wanted to see the old ways enacted. Athens was a university town for the Roman elite, whose children went there as we might go to Oxford. What we think we know about classical Greece is partly filtered through this late antique nostalgia — a celebration of how great we used to be. About the Guest Adrian Goldsworthy is a historian, novelist, and YouTuber with a DPhil from Oxford. He is the author of Athens and Sparta: The Rivalry That Shaped Ancient Greece (Basic Books, May 12, 2026), Caesar: Life of a Colossus, Augustus: First Emperor of Rome, How Rome Fell, Philip and Alexander, Rome and Persia, and many other books. He lives in Penarth, South Wales. References: •       Athens and Sparta: The Rivalry That Shaped Ancient Greece by Adrian Goldsworthy (Basic Books, May 12, 2026). •       Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War — the essential and problematic source, discussed at length. •       Episode 2897: Patrick Wyman on Lost Worlds — directly referenced in the interview as a contrasting style of history. •       Episode 2892: Jason Pack on the Iran war — the companion episode on the modern Persian conflict, referenced in the interview. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

Today, we are breaking down Auto1, and this is an interesting episode because we are tackling a business that most US listeners will not be familiar with, even though it resembles names they already know well. Our guest is Harrison Moot, co-founder and CIO of Sandstone, who walks us through Europe's largest vertically integrated online marketplace for used cars. Auto1 is often shorthanded as the Carvana of Europe, and the comparison directionally fits, but the differences are what make the company worth understanding on its own terms. The core of the conversation is how Harrison frames the company. He argues that Auto1 is best understood as a pan-European clearing house for used vehicles rather than a dealer with a website, and that the model only works because the company built its consumer sourcing engine and its wholesale dealer liquidity for nearly a decade before ever launching the consumer retail business. Owning the sourcing, logistics, refurbishment, and financing stack across thirty fragmented national markets gives Auto1 a pricing and routing advantage that local dealers and asset-light classifieds cannot replicate.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Alan Turing fue uno de los grandes cerebros privilegiados que alumbró el siglo XX. De ese cerebro salieron algunas de las ideas sobre las que se sostiene nuestro mundo. Sin sus aportes a las matemáticas, ni los ordenadores, ni los teléfonos móviles, ni internet existirían tal y como hoy los conocemos. Criado en Inglaterra mientras sus padres residían en la India, Turing mostró desde niño una inteligencia fuera de lo común. En el internado de Sherborne se enamoró de Christopher Morcom, un compañero cuya muerte prematura por tuberculosis le empujó a preguntarse sobre la relación entre la mente y la materia. En 1931 ingresó en el King's College de Cambridge, donde compaginó las matemáticas con el atletismo, disciplina que casi le lleva a los Juegos Olímpicos de 1948. En 1936 publicó el artículo que cambió la historia de la informática. Para responder al problema de la decisión planteado por David Hilbert, imaginó una máquina abstracta capaz de ejecutar cualquier cómputo definible mediante reglas. Demostró además que podía construirse una máquina universal capaz de imitar a cualquier otra. Aquella idea es el plano teórico del ordenador moderno y la raíz de toda la informática que nos rodea. Cuando estalló la guerra se incorporó al complejo secreto de Bletchley Park. Allí, junto a Gordon Welchman, diseñó la Bomba, un artefacto electromecánico que con que el consiguieron romper el cifrado de la máquina Enigma que utilizaban los alemanes para transmitir órdenes. Esa información, conocida como Ultra, permitió ganar la batalla del Atlántico, asegurar el desembarco de Normandía y acortar la contienda en dos o tres años. De su cabeza salió también Colossus, la que seguramente fue la primera computadora electrónica programable. Después de la guerra trabajó en el diseño del primer ordenador británico y, ya en la universidad de Manchester, siguió haciéndose preguntas. En 1950 publicó en la revista Mind un texto de gran importancia sobre máquinas pensantes en el que propuso el juego de la imitación, hoy llamado Test de Turing, la partida de nacimiento de la inteligencia artificial. En 1952 formuló su modelo de la morfogénesis, en el que explicaba matemáticamente cómo dos sustancias químicas pueden generar manchas, rayas y espirales. Aquel mismo año tras un robo en su casa confesó ante la policía una relación íntima con otro hombre. Juzgado por indecencia grave, le dieron a elegir entre ir a la cárcel o someterse a un tratamiento hormonal. Le retiraron la habilitación de seguridad y le aislaron. El 8 de junio de 1954 apareció muerto en su cama con una manzana envenenada con cianuro a medio comer en su mesilla. Tenía 41 años.

Alan Turing fue uno de los grandes cerebros privilegiados que alumbró el siglo XX. De ese cerebro salieron algunas de las ideas sobre las que se sostiene nuestro mundo. Sin sus aportes a las matemáticas, ni los ordenadores, ni los teléfonos móviles, ni internet existirían tal y como hoy los conocemos. Criado en Inglaterra mientras sus padres residían en la India, Turing mostró desde niño una inteligencia fuera de lo común. En el internado de Sherborne se enamoró de Christopher Morcom, un compañero cuya muerte prematura por tuberculosis le empujó a preguntarse sobre la relación entre la mente y la materia. En 1931 ingresó en el King's College de Cambridge, donde compaginó las matemáticas con el atletismo, disciplina que casi le lleva a los Juegos Olímpicos de 1948. En 1936 publicó el artículo que cambió la historia de la informática. Para responder al problema de la decisión planteado por David Hilbert, imaginó una máquina abstracta capaz de ejecutar cualquier cómputo definible mediante reglas. Demostró además que podía construirse una máquina universal capaz de imitar a cualquier otra. Aquella idea es el plano teórico del ordenador moderno y la raíz de toda la informática que nos rodea. Cuando estalló la guerra se incorporó al complejo secreto de Bletchley Park. Allí, junto a Gordon Welchman, diseñó la Bomba, un artefacto electromecánico que con que el consiguieron romper el cifrado de la máquina Enigma que utilizaban los alemanes para transmitir órdenes. Esa información, conocida como Ultra, permitió ganar la batalla del Atlántico, asegurar el desembarco de Normandía y acortar la contienda en dos o tres años. De su cabeza salió también Colossus, la que seguramente fue la primera computadora electrónica programable. Después de la guerra trabajó en el diseño del primer ordenador británico y, ya en la universidad de Manchester, siguió haciéndose preguntas. En 1950 publicó en la revista Mind un texto de gran importancia sobre máquinas pensantes en el que propuso el juego de la imitación, hoy llamado Test de Turing, la partida de nacimiento de la inteligencia artificial. En 1952 formuló su modelo de la morfogénesis, en el que explicaba matemáticamente cómo dos sustancias químicas pueden generar manchas, rayas y espirales. Aquel mismo año tras un robo en su casa confesó ante la policía una relación íntima con otro hombre. Juzgado por indecencia grave, le dieron a elegir entre ir a la cárcel o someterse a un tratamiento hormonal. Le retiraron la habilitación de seguridad y le aislaron. El 8 de junio de 1954 apareció muerto en su cama con una manzana envenenada con cianuro a medio comer en su mesilla. Tenía 41 años. El secreto oficial que pesaba sobre las actividades en Bletchley imposibilitó durante años conocer con detalle su importante contribución a la victoria. Fue a partir de los años 70 cuando empezó a ocupar el lugar que merecía. La película “Descifrando Enigma” de 2014 terminó de popularizar su figura.

What's your excuse? James Logan was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer two years ago — and he's still racing. In this powerful episode, James joins the conversation to share his extraordinary journey through surgery, recovery, and relentless forward motion. With part of his liver and colon removed and his rectum fully gone, James refuses to stop. He's now on a mission to raise $100,000 for the Ironman Foundation and has written a book, Just Keep Tri-ing, to help fund that goal.This is not our usual episode. It's raw, emotional, and one of the most inspiring conversations we've ever had. Keep the tissues close.

Jared and Mike hit Trump National Doral Miami to witness the unveiling of “Don Colossus,” a 22-foot, gold-covered Trump statue that seems to symbolize a particular affliction in MAGA's character. (Look closer, Lenny!) They also talk about Poodle Room veteran Kash Patel's balls-on-the-table stare-down with lawmakers on Capitol Hill, the grifty Trump phone, and infighting on the antisemitic flank of the GOP between Nick Fuentes and Dan Bilzerian over who is more of a fed. Jared and Mike also talk about Benjamin Netanyahu, who is on a lovely media tour blaming social media bots for Israel's unpopularity. The interview landed alongside a major The New York Times report on abuse allegations involving Palestinian prisoners, which sent pro-Israel influencers into immediate damage-control mode. There's never been a better time in America to flex nuts as a 22 foot golden man.Listen to the full episode on Patreon: patreon.com/postingthroughit

My guest today is Krishna Rao, the CFO of Anthropic. The center of our conversation is how he navigates the decision around procuring and allocating compute, which he describes as the canvas on which everything else gets built. We talk about what he calls the cone of uncertainty, the three chip platforms Anthropic uses fungibly across Trainium, TPUs, and GPUs, and the daily meetings they run to allocate compute between model development, internal use, and serving customer demand. He explains why the returns to frontier intelligence keep getting higher, especially in enterprise, and how Anthropic thinks about the line between platform and application and why they choose to build their own products like Claude Code. Krishna has such a unique seat watching one of the fastest growing businesses in history, and he is generous in sharing what he has learned since joining the company two years ago.

L'idéologie s'arrête quand les factures de compute arrivent — Elon Musk vient de louer toute la puissance de Colossus à Anthropic, la boîte qu'il traitait encore il y a trois mois de "menace pour la civilisation occidentale". Ce retournement spectaculaire révèle la vérité profonde de la guerre à l'IA : ce ne sont pas les meilleurs modèles qui gagnent, mais ceux qui contrôlent le métal et l'énergie.===========================

Loneliness is increasingly being recognized not simply as a social issue, but as a major threat to public health. Cardiologist and behavioral medicine pioneer Dr. Alan Rozanski says the evidence is now clear: meaningful human connection influences everything from heart health to longevity and emotional resilience. In this conversation with Peter Bowes, he explains how social isolation affects the body biologically, why purpose and vitality matter as much as diet and exercise, and why modern life may be weakening our ability to connect. He also explores the difference between being alone and feeling lonely, and the complex role technology and social media now play in our relationships. Ultimately, he argues that the strongest predictor of long-term wellbeing may not simply be how long we live — but how vital and connected we feel along the way. -- May is National Mental Health Awareness Month, observed annually since 1949 to reduce stigma, provide support, and educate the public on mental wellness -- --This podcast is supported by affiliate arrangements with a select number of companies.

Send us Fan Mail#382 - There's no exact line to say who's adventurous and who isn't. There are some guidelines and these loose guidelines can be applied to anyone who's trying something out of their comfort zone. I don't feel anyone else should pass judgement on us when we determine where that line is. There are too many in running and endurance sports telling us we need to take more chances, try more, do more. That's a personal decision and no one can decide that but us. This week, I give us something to think about, perhaps on your next run. Are you the type who likes to try next experiences head-on? Or do you like to stick with what you know? As I said, there are no judgements, no trying to talk you into doing something new. That's entirely your choice. We're just doing some long run thinking today.

My guest today is Brian Chesky, the co-founder and CEO of Airbnb. Our conversation traces the path from his early training as an industrial designer at RISD through the pandemic moment that forced him into founder mode.  He explains why he thinks AI founder mode will demand even more attention to the details and why founders are rarely good early CEOs. He walks through his eleven-star exercise, which is a way of imagining the most absurd version of a customer experience to achieve product market fit.  We also talk about what changed for him when he stopped chasing adulation and started making things for the love of making them.  For the full show notes, transcript, and links to mentioned content, check out the episode page ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.  ----- Become a Colossus member to get our quarterly print magazine and private audio experience, including exclusive profiles and early access to select episodes.
