In an era where government tech projects often end in billion-dollar failures and privacy nightmares, there's a tiny Baltic nation that's quietly revolutionized what's possible. Estonia—a country of just 1.3 million people—has built what might be the world's most efficient digital government. Every public service is online. Digital signatures save 2% of GDP annually. And in a twist that should intrigue American conservatives, they've done it with smaller government, not bigger.How did a former Soviet republic become a model of lean digital governance? What's their secret for avoiding the "big-bang IT project" disasters that plague Washington? And most importantly—can America's divided political system learn anything from Estonia's success?Joining for this episode are two experts who've studied Estonia's digital miracle up close. Dr. Keegan McBride is senior policy advisor in emerging technology and geopolitics at the Tony Blair Institute. He's also a Non-Resident Senior Fellow at the Foundation for American Innovation. Joel Burke is the author of Rebooting a Nation: the Incredible Rise of Estonia, E-Government, and the Startup Revolution, and Senior Public Policy Analyst at Mozilla.

Tariffs, Trade Routes, and Tech: Freightos' View from the Cargo Frontlines 2025 is shaping up to be a wild year for global trade, and few companies have a vantage point on the impacts of every-changing tariff policy quite like digital cargo-booking platform Freightos (NASDAQ:CRGO). This week, we catch up with Freightos CEO Zvi Schreiber. He shares how the shifting trade flows are showing up in Freightos' numbers, and how companies are adjusting to meet the new challenges. Zvi also discusses why the shipping industry has long resisted digitization and how Freightos has made headway since closing its combination with Gesher I in January 2023.  

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Michael Thiessen interviews Pastor Nick Thompson about his book Sacred Streaming, which explores the implications of digital technology in church worship. Thompson reflects on his experiences during the COVID pandemic that led him to question the legitimacy of live streaming in worship.

The discussion also touches on the regulative principle of worship, the essentiality of public assembly, and the means of grace as ordained by God. In this conversation, Nick Thompson and Michael Thiessen explore the implications of digital technology on worship practices, particularly focusing on the nature of baptism, the limits of digital engagement, and the importance of public worship. They discuss the theological and pastoral challenges posed by live streaming services and the necessity of lamenting the loss of physical gatherings during the pandemic. The conversation emphasizes the need for a balanced approach that honours God's design for worship while acknowledging the realities of modern technology.

Rohan Grey, Assistant Professor of Law at Willamette University, joins Money on the Left to discuss his urgent new paper, "Digitizing the Fisc." During our conversation, we recount the events surrounding Elon Musk & the DOGE boys' unconstitutional takeover of the Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service, while explicating the right-wing theory of the "unitary executive" that underwrites such actions. Next, we analyze the structural deficiencies and choke points in the current Congressional appropriation process that have made DOGE's illegal interventions possible. Turns out, the US fiscal process involves several readily exploitable weaknesses, making it somewhat akin to the almighty Death Star's unprotected thermal exhaust port in Star Wars (1997). Finally, we consider Grey's proposal for a more streamlined, distributed, and democratic digital architecture for coordinating federal expenditures. Building legal concepts and procedures into the very materiality of digital design, this alternative system not only secures Congress's constitutional spending power against authoritarian interference and impoundment. It also unbundles fiscal policy from public debt management, making clear to the world that legislative action does not redistribute extant funds, but rather creates money afresh every time Congress votes to spend. Visit our Patreon page here: https://www.patreon.com/MoLsuperstructureMusic by Nahneen Kula: www.nahneenkula.com

In this episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Fadi Zoghzoghy, founder and CEO of Bridge Athletic. Fadi shares his insights about the transformative power of tech for the training market, particularly for college and professional athletes and coaches. With a strong background in tech, Fadi goes further into how Bridge is digitizing weight rooms and enhancing athlete development through personalized training, learning, and adaptive learning strategies. Bridge is not just about efficiency, but also about improving performance and player engagement. On bringing coaching "into the 21st century and seeing a white space," Fadi states, "There are no tools out there to help them do their job . . . efficiently and effectively. They're spending a lot of time in Excel designing these training plans. They're sending YouTube links. They're following up via text messages. It's all pretty much done in 1990's tech. That was the opportunity that we went after initially." Key themes discussed Digitizing athletic training and development Empowering strength coaches with modern tools Pricing software's value proposition Measuring user engagement stickiness Athletic program performance analysis Success stories in fitness innovation Entrepreneurial impact on community A few key takeaways:  1. Bridge Athletic's Impact on Efficiency: Bridge is a tool designed to digitize the weight room and optimize the workflow of strength and conditioning coaches. The platform helps them move away from traditional pen and paper or Excel-based methods to a digital system that saves coaches an average of forty minutes per day. 2. Focus on Strength and Conditioning: Initially targeting the strength and conditioning community, Bridge aims to enhance the efficiency of coaches by allowing personalization of training plans and facilitating better engagement and compliance from their athletes. 3. Adoption and Retention: The platform boasts high retention once an organization brings them in. Once coaches and athletes see the benefits of Bridge's digital strategies and how much more efficient things become, the tech becomes an integral part of the training processes. 4. Versatile Applications: Bridge is also used across various sectors, including pro teams, college athletics, tactical communities, and the fitness industry. Its applicability ranges from enhancing athlete development to aiding fitness professionals in business growth. 5. Positive Experiences and Testimonials: The platform has significantly impacted users, which is evident from their many unsolicited testimonials ranging from helping athletes in recovery journeys to contributing to their performance and overall satisfaction.

Digitizing Domesticity in the 1980s: The Intimate Life of Computers (U Minnesota Press, 2024) shows how the widespread introduction of home computers in the 1980s was purposefully geared toward helping sustain heteronormative middle-class families by shaping relationships between users. Moving beyond the story of male-dominated computer culture, this book emphasizes the neglected history of the influence of women's culture and feminist critique on the development of personal computing despite women's underrepresentation in the industry. Proposing the notion of “companionate computing,” Reem Hilu reimagines the spread of computers into American homes as the history of an interpersonal, romantic, and familial medium. She details the integration of computing into family relationships—from helping couples have better sex and offering thoughtful simulations of masculine seduction to animating cute robot companions and giving voice to dolls that could talk to lonely children—underscoring how these computer applications directly responded to the companionate needs of their users as a way to ease growing pressures on home life. The Intimate Life of Computers is a vital contribution to feminist media history, highlighting how the emergence of personal computing dovetailed with changing gender roles and other social and cultural shifts. Eschewing the emphasis on technologies and institutions typically foregrounded in personal-computer histories, Hilu uncovers the surprising ways that domesticity and family life guided the earlier stages of our all-pervasive digital culture.

Over the last decade, humanitarian organizations have digitized many of their systems, from registering refugees with biometric IDs to transporting cargo via drones. This has helped deliver aid around the world, but it's also brought new risks to the people it's meant to protect. This week we're revisiting a talk by tech and human rights ethicist Aarathi Krishnan who points to the dangers of digitization —  like sensitive data getting into the hands of the wrong people — and lays out five ethical principles to help inform humanitarian tech innovation. After the talk, our host Sherrell shares a practical way to assess the costs and benefits of digitizing aid using Krishnan's principles.

Episode 191: Digitizing Ibadi Libraries in Jerba and the Jebel Nafusa In this podcast, Paul Love talks about his work digitizing Ibadi libraries and collections in Djerba and the Jebel Nafusa (northwest Libya). Through these projects, Love evokes broad debates within critical cultural heritage studies. He discusses challenges in terms of preservation and conservation, such as preventing human misuse and regulating human activity in relation to historical manuscripts and other documentation, while sharing anecdotes of successful projects that illuminate the relationships that can be built through these efforts. Throughout the podcast, he raises questions about who gains from digitizing resources, the strengths and challenges of "democratizing" information, and larger directions in digital humanities. Paul Love is Associate Professor of North African, Middle Eastern, and Islamic History at Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane (Morocco). He is also currently director of the Mohammed VI Library at the same institution. His research interests revolve around the history of Ibadi Muslim communities in Northern Africa, especially the social history of manuscripts and libraries. For the past several years, he has also worked in collaboration with colleagues in Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, and France to document and to protect manuscript collections across the region.  This podcast was recorded via Zoom on the 5th of September 2023, at the Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEMAT). We thank Hisham Errish, a music composer and an Oud soloist, for his interpretation of “When the Desert Sings” in the introduction and conclusion of this podcast. Production and editing: Lena Krause, AIMS Resident Fellow at the Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEMAT). 

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Today I will talk about digitizing analog photos. I will talk about two methods. I have scanners from different manufacturers, flat bed scanner and dedicated film scanner. Each scanner is delivered with software. Each software is generally good. But it is a problem to manage several software. Secondly, none of them works for Linux operating system. I wanted to simplify my software learning, so I wanted one software for all my existing and any future scanner. Secondly I intended to migrate to a Linux operating system, which I now have done. Those two requirements lead me to switch over to VueScan software. I had tested VueScan before and also gotten recommendations from photographic friends. VueScan is a proprietary software made by a small family run company. It’s available for Linux, Windows and macOS. VueScan supports very many hardware scanners. I do not know about any better software for Linux and is maybe also the best choice for any operating system. I do not regret my switch to VueScan. A second method to digitize photos is reproduction with a camera. That is to use a camera to shoot a photo of the photo. Some say it is the superior technology. I don’t know. But as I am coming from the scanning technology and starting to explore the repro technology, I will give my early thoughts from that perspective. My initial plan has been to use repro photography for prints that are glued into albums and therefore difficult to manage in the scanner. It is also an excellent method to digitize other papers in book format. But I have not really started to do that. However, a while ago I started to look into 6x9 cm negatives. My scanner can just manage 6x9. But I do not have a fixture for 6x9. So it is both somewhat tricky to position the negative as well as to keep it flat. A thin plexiglass plate might be possible to use to keep it flat. Even without plexiglass, I have tested I can get well acceptable result with the scanner. I started to try out the repro method. I have not come so far in my trials that I can decide which is the best method for me. My camera is a modest camera compared to state of the art. My flat bed scanner should give better or comparable resolution than my modest digital camera. The fixture I have for repro do not keep the negative fully flat, because 6x9 is a rather big size. So I plan to explore if I can improve quality with a plexiglass plate above the negative. An issue with the repro method is to keep all angles in control, to mount the camera in exactly correct angle in relation to the object. Focus can also be another issue. I consider it is better to use manual focus rather than auto focus. When I take the repro photos, I have the camera connected to a laptop and I use the Entangle software to control the camera settings. I can use the camera live view to position the object as well as to focus. I use RawTherapee software to convert the negative photo to a normal photo. RawTherapee comes with pre-installed profiles for this process. The default profile values can be adjusted and also stored as new personal profiles. A major advantage of the repro method compared to the scanner method is the speed. Once all is configured, it takes one hundred of a second or so to do the digitize itself, while it can take minutes with the scanner. I use digiKam as my photo catalog software. All software I currently use with the exception of VueScan are free and open source. I use all on Linux operating system, some of them are available on other platforms. I include links to their websites in the show notes. If you have any opinion or experience on digitizing analog photos, I will be happy to read your comments or listen to your show.
