As a listener of TOE you can get a special 20% off discount to The Economist and all it has to offer! Visit https://www.economist.com/toe In this episode, I speak with Frederic Schuller, an award-winning theoretical physicist and professor, who insists the undergrad tale of energy sloshing between kinetic and potential is just talk unless the math says so. Borrowing Port-Hamiltonian thinking, he's building probability ports to pull measurement talk into actual quantum formalism—no change to QM, just sharper math. He also flips gravity: start from the matter action and construct the compatible gravitational dynamics—Maxwell in, Einstein–Hilbert out. And if nature ever breaks our current causal picture, the scheme points to richer structures (and the gravity to match)—a modest idea, pushed hard.

Crypto has its own secret language — and if you don't speak it, it can feel overwhelming. In today's episode of New To Crypto, I'm breaking down three of the most common (and most important) terms you'll hear everywhere in the crypto space: HODL, FUD, and FOMO.✅ Learn the funny origin story behind HODL and why it's become a badge of honor for long-term investors. ✅ Understand how FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) spreads through the market — and how to separate signal from noise. ✅ Discover why FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is one of the fastest ways beginners lose money — and how to avoid falling into the trap.By the end of this episode, you'll not only know what these terms mean but also how to spot them in action and make smarter investing decisions.If you've ever felt lost in the jargon, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to join the conversation like a pro.

In an age when AI models are becoming exponentially more sophisticated and powerful, how does one ensure that proper results are being generated and that the AI model functions in desired parameters? This pressing concern of AI alignment could be solved through cryptographic verification, using zero knowledge proofs. ZKPs not only allow for verifying computation at scale, but they also confer data privacy. Lagrange's DeepProve zkML is the fastest in existence, making it easy to prove that AI inferences are correct, scaling verifiable computation as the demand for AI grows.Topics covered in this episode:Ismael's background and founding LagrangeAI x crypto convergenceZKML use casesAI inference verifiabilityAI safety regulationsRevenue accruing tokensPitching Lagrange to enterprise clientsAssembling a dedicated teamCryptography researchEpisode links:Ismael Hishon-Rezaizadeh on XLagrange on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Send us a textI'm starting with the alarming Putin and Trump Alaska summit where Putin's focused speech about economic expansion into the US and his emphasis on Alaska's proximity to Russia as a former Russian territory really freaked me out, especially knowing his associate Volodin was simultaneously meeting with Kim Jong-un in North Korea which no one covered. I'll tell you why this is important. Then I'm breaking down the most shocking tea that connects Bravo's Next Gen NYC star Charlie Zakkour to one of the most disturbing crypto kidnapping cases in New York history! In this deep dive, I reveal how Charlie wasn't just friends with crypto kidnappers John Woeltz and William Duplessie - he was actually working as their recruiter, bringing models and young women to their Prince Street townhouse where the alleged torture took place for money. I expose Charlie's connection to The Box nightclub scene, how he used Riley Burruss and other Bravo kids as marks to pay expensive bottle service bills while he recruited women for these dangerous men, and why parents like Teresa Giudice and Meredith Marks should be furious their daughters were put on a show with someone involved in this world. I'm also revealing the truth behind Jacqueline Laurita's $750,000 default judgment drama that turned out to be completely misreported by the media plus Todd Nepola's unhinged 10-minute Instagram rant threatening to sue Bravo producers over claims that don't add up with what Alexia has said publicly and what I know. Plus, I'm spilling exclusive new details about the mysterious Montauk murder of bathing suit company owner Martha Nolan O'Ceallaigh, who was found dead on insurance mogul Christopher Durham's boat after a night of partying - and why her naked host running from the scene screaming raises major red flags. Also I wonder if Dorit Kemsley knew her and it was odd RHOBH was filming there when it happened. From Putin's concerning rhetoric to crypto torture dungeons to mysterious boat deaths, this episode connects all the dots you've been missing!For the Full epsodes go here for only $6.00 per month plus more show! https://www.patreon.com/c/DishingDramaWithDanaWilkeySupport the showDana is on Cameo!Follow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo learn more about sponsorships, email DDDWpodcast@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel

The #1 Mistake New Crypto Investors Make (And How to Avoid It) episode:

In the gripping second part of this episode of the Mike Drop Podcast, guest John Nores dives deeper into the escalating issues at the U.S. borders, focusing on the alarming rise of Chinese nationals crossing illegally and their potential ties to organized crime and terrorism. The discussion uncovers the calculated destruction of identification documents by these operatives, making it nearly impossible to trace their identities, and explores the sophisticated transportation networks facilitating their entry. We examine the collusion between Chinese organized crime and Mexican cartels, highlighting their roles in fentanyl production, human trafficking, and the operation of illegal grow sites. The conversation also addresses the vulnerabilities of the northern border, particularly in Montana, where limited resources and vast terrain create opportunities for smuggling and other illicit activities. The episode reflects on the positive shifts under the new administration, with improved communication between federal agencies and law enforcement, and a renewed focus on combating cartels. We also explore the challenges faced during California's sanctuary state policies under Governor Newsom, which restricted information sharing and media outreach about cartel activities. The discussion touches on the role of cryptocurrency in potential money laundering schemes and its geopolitical implications, as well as the need for a more streamlined immigration process that distinguishes between non-criminal immigrants and dangerous offenders. Beyond the serious topics, the episode lightens up with stories of community engagement, including John Nores' involvement in a Montana-based rock band, Area 56, which has provided a joyful outlet amidst the intensity of his work. From adapting military tactics for law enforcement to tracking fugitives like a former Army Ranger in rural areas, this episode is packed with insights into the evolving challenges of border security, environmental protection, and public safety.
