Popular history tells the story of how the tea boycott during the American Revolution caused a transition in American taste from tea to coffee, making the young country a coffee-drinking nation. In truth, Americans did not give up their tea so easily, and the United States grew to be the second-largest importer of tea from China. Diverging from British black tea traditions, U.S. consumers preferred green tea, cultivated a particular taste for Oolong tea, and invented the English Breakfast Tea brand to market Chinese black tea. This World in a Teacup: Credit, Taste, and Power in the U.S.-China Tea Trade, 1784–1911 (University of Nebraska Press, 2026) by Dr. Dan Du is the first book to detail the American tea trade with China after the American Revolution through the early twentieth century. Drawing on archival sources and perspectives from both sides of the Pacific, Dr. Du offers new insights to help understand fundamental developments in U.S.-China relations within a global context. This World in a Teacup shows that, rather than depending on hard-money transactions or a barter economy, a sophisticated credit system buttressed American tea purchases in China: Credit instruments such as promissory notes, bills of exchange, and checks financed the transactions between Chinese and U.S. tea merchants, crystallizing changing power dynamics in the global economy. This World in a Teacup explains how the circulation of these credit instruments challenged the conventional understanding of China's economy as a primitive system and how the power structure of American, British, and Chinese tea trade in the credit economy reshaped American consumption patterns. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Big Tech earnings are pushing valuations in opposite directions, reflecting differences in business mix and AI monetization timing. This public market split is influencing private financing terms and diligence focus on margins, cash generation, and concentration risk. Capital spending plans for AI infrastructure are affecting hyperscaler pricing, commitment structures, and startup compute costs. Platform policy changes are elevating distribution and channel concentration risks for smaller companies. Go to market efficiency, labor benchmarks, and compensation dynamics are shifting alongside these market moves. Founders are responding by tightening unit economics, diversifying channels, and planning for changes in cloud costs and sales cycles.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

We often hear about the backlash against sustainability and business and human rights in the United States, but does the perception reflect the reality when it comes to actual business practice? In this episode of Frankly Speaking, Richard Howitt was joined by Bennett Freeman, former US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor and Associate Fellow at the think tank Chatham House, as well as Senior Fellow at UC Berkeley, and Chloe Cole, Senior Researcher in US Business and Human Rights at the Business and Human Rights Centre.  Together they discussed the findings of the Centre's just-published research on how 54 large US companies have reacted to the changed American political environment, entitled: "Retreat or respect? Diverging corporate paths on human rights in a time of turbulence." You'll hear about: The three main ways top US firms have responded to the backlash – the good, the bad and the ugly  The positive role played by several US companies in response to the violence of ICE officials in Minnesota in January  Big Oil's aggressive lobbying against the EU CDDDD The corporate attempt to silence environmental NGOs, such as Energy Transfer's lawsuit against Greenpeace  Why companies choosing silence is not a neutral choice  The ultimate aim of the research: to encourage companies to keep going in their improving business and human rights  Listen in and follow us on LinkedIn and Youtube!

The Trumpet and divine Convergence:Prophetic Clarity for the Church in a Diverging AgePaul addresses the Corinthian church on the nature of sound in 1 Corinthians 14:8. A trumpet that produces an unclear note prepares no one for battle. Every sound carries a message, and every message carries a demand. The church that cannot interpret the trumpets sounding around it cannot respond accurately to what is actually unfolding before it.This principle extends beyond worship gatherings into the broader life of the believer. Every season produces its own sounds. A national policy shift, a sudden change in public sentiment, a movement that gains traction overnight, all function as trumpets. They carry signification. They demand a response. The believer who hears the sound but cannot interpret it will respond to the noise rather than to the message inside the noise.Discernment exists precisely for this purpose. The prophetic ministry is not a separate department of spiritual life reserved for unusual occasions. It functions as the interpretive lens through which the believer reads ordinary events and receives the meaning God intends, rather than the meaning the moment appears to carry on the surface. Without that lens, events that look negative, contradictory, or threatening get processed entirely within their natural appearance, and the believer responds from that appearance rather than from revelation.

Federal Reserve Transition and Rising Dissent The most recent Federal Open Market Committee meeting marked a significant transition point, as it was the final meeting led by Chairman Jerome Powell. While leadership changes at the Fed are not unusual, one unexpected development stands out: Powell will remain on the Board of Governors after stepping down as chairman, an uncommon move that introduces a new dynamic within the institution. This decision raises important questions about influence and governance. Former chairs rarely stay on due to the potential complications of overlapping authority, making Powell's continued presence noteworthy as the Fed prepares for incoming leadership under Kevin Walsh. Equally significant is the rise in dissent among committee members. Four out of twelve participants opposed the latest decision, bringing the annual dissent rate to approximately 19%, a relatively high figure by historical standards. While markets often interpret dissent as instability, it may instead signal a healthier, more transparent decision-making process. Diverging viewpoints can lead to more rigorous debate and ultimately stronger policy outcomes. In a complex and uncertain economic environment, unanimity may be less realistic, and less desirable, than thoughtful disagreement. Increased openness within the Fed could provide clearer insight into policy direction and improve market understanding over time. Technology Drives a Strong Earnings Season Corporate earnings have taken center stage, delivering a much-needed boost to market confidence. Following a period of geopolitical tension and rising oil prices, recent earnings reports, particularly from the technology sector, have exceeded expectations and helped propel the S&P 500 higher. The scale of growth within technology has been particularly striking. First-quarter earnings for the sector are projected to grow by more than 50%, far outpacing the rest of the index. Even more notable is the upward revision of future expectations, with 2026 earnings estimates increasing by nearly 15 percentage points as companies accelerate capital investments, especially in artificial intelligence. While debate continues around the long-term payoff of AI spending, early indicators suggest these investments are already contributing to stronger earnings. Enhanced productivity and improved margins are reinforcing the sector's leadership position. If execution remains strong and economic conditions stay supportive, technology companies appear well-positioned to sustain above-average growth. This momentum could continue to play a central role in driving broader market performance and potentially reducing volatility, particularly in historically turbulent election cycles. Economic Stability: GDP and Labor Market Strength The broader economic picture remains steady, with first-quarter real GDP coming in at approximately 2%, aligning with long-term growth targets. After accounting for inflation, this figure reflects a stable and resilient expansion, supported primarily by strong consumer spending. Consumers continue to be the backbone of the economy, representing roughly 70% of total activity. Their consistent spending has offset weaker areas such as housing, which has remained a drag on growth. Meanwhile, components like government spending, trade, and inventories have shown volatility, largely influenced by policy uncertainty and external factors. One of the most compelling data points comes from the labor market. Initial jobless claims recently dropped to 189,000, the lowest level since 1969 on a raw, non-adjusted basis. This milestone underscores the continued strength of employment conditions, one half of the Federal Reserve's dual mandate alongside inflation control. While inflation remains an ongoing challenge, the strength in employment provides a solid foundation for the economy. Markets have responded positively to these signals, though attention remains focused on how external pressures, such as geopolitical tensions and energy prices, may influence future quarters.

Global markets sent mixed signals as US data pointed to surprising resilience, while the eurozone slipped back into contraction. Rising energy prices remain a key concern, driving inflation pressures and weighing on confidence. Equity markets reflected this caution yesterday, with US tech stocks pulling back as several software names underperformed after reporting earnings. Meanwhile, signs of Swiss National Bank FX intervention are emerging, while oil prices continue to climb and gold has moved lower. Asia‑Pacific markets were mostly weaker, with Japan the notable exception following firmer inflation data ahead of next week's Bank of Japan meeting.

In this episode we talk about product strategy. How do you make sure your product wins in the market? How do you make key product decisions, and how do you manage mistakes?  We are here to help! In this episode we answer questions including:What do you do when big feature releases fail to move the needle?How do you balance different requests from different customers?What's the best way to communicate product roadmaps?All of these questions were submitted by listeners just like you. You can submit questions for us to answer on our website TheStartupHelpdesk.com or on X/Twitter @thestartuphd - we'd love to hear from you!Your hosts:Sean Byrnes: General Partner, Near Horizon www.nearhorizon.vcAsh Rust: Managing Partner, Sterling Road www.sterlingroad.comNic Meliones: CEO, Navi www.heynavi.comReminder: this is not legal advice or investment advice.Q1: What do you do when big feature releases fail to move the needle?Utility drives adoption, not novelty. If a release flops, you likely prioritized "pixie dust" (like bolting on AI simply to be trendy) over solving a "hair on fire" problem.Focus on Pain, Not Trends: New technology is a tool, not a strategy. A feature only matters if it delivers a 10x improvement on a core, high-pain customer job. If it's a "nice-to-have," it will be "rarely-used."The Iteration Mandate: Don't be afraid to ship imperfect work, but be terrified of stagnating. You cannot expect your first implementation to be the winning one. You iterate to find the 10x value; you don't start with it.Q2: How do you balance different requests from different customers?Diverging requests are a warning sign of a "Verticalization Challenge." You cannot build two businesses at once. If you try to serve every request, you multiply complexity and halve your focus. The result is a B+ product, and B+ products do not win categories.To win, you must be the best in the world for a specific customer profile before you can be good for everyone.The 60-Day Focus Framework:Select: Pick the profile with the best blend of pain, willingness to pay, and market size.Sprint: Ignore all other segments and focus on that profile exclusively for 60 days.Validate: If you don't see breakout momentum, pivot to the next profile.Q3: What's the best way to communicate product roadmaps?Trust is the currency of product management. You earn it by balancing two distinct timelines:Sell the Dream (Long-term): Customers treat their purchase as an investment in the future. Share your vision and intent to get them excited about where the ship is going.Deliver the Reality (Short-term): Ruthlessly over-deliver on the next 60-90 days.The Trust Equation: When you provide undeniable proof of execution in the short term, you earn the right to be ambiguous about the long term. If you miss short-term dates, your long-term vision looks like a hallucination. Give them proof so they can believe in the dream.

Edwin Chen is the founder and CEO of Surge AI, the data infrastructure company behind nearly every major frontier model. Surge works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google, providing the high-quality data and evaluation infrastructure that powers their models.  Edwin reveals why optimizing for popular benchmarks like LMArena is "basically optimizing for clickbait," how one frontier lab's models regressed for 6-12 months without anyone knowing, and why the industry's approach to measurement is fundamentally broken. Jacob and Edwin discuss what actually makes elite AI evaluators, why "there's never going to be a one size fits all solution" for AI models, and how frontier labs are taking surprisingly divergent paths to AGI. (0:00) Intro(0:56) The Pitfalls of Optimizing for LMArena(4:34) Issues with Data Quality and Measurement(9:44) The Importance of Human Evaluations(13:40) The Rise of RL Environments(17:21) Challenges and Lessons in Model Training(19:59) Silicon Valley's Pivot Culture(23:06) Technology-Driven Approach(24:18) Quality Beyond Credentials(27:51) Impact of Scale Acquisition(28:35) Hiring for Research Culture(30:48) Divergence in AI Training Paradigms(34:16) Future of AI Models(39:32) Multimodal AI and Quality(43:44) Quickfire With your co-hosts: @jacobeffron - Partner at Redpoint, Former PM Flatiron Health @patrickachase - Partner at Redpoint, Former ML Engineer LinkedIn @ericabrescia - Former COO Github, Founder Bitnami (acq'd by VMWare) @jordan_segall - Partner at Redpoint

Our guest reveals pioneer leaders’ differing views on Singapore’s Aug 9, 1965 split from Malaysia. Synopsis: The Straits Times’ chief columnist Sumiko Tan speaks to Janadas Devan, senior adviser at the Ministry of Digital Development and Information, on how the The Albatross File: Inside Separation sheds fresh light on the decisions that led to Singapore’s independence. Edited by Susan Sim, the 488-page volume is co-published by Straits Times Press and the National Archives of Singapore, and was launched by Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Dec 7 alongside an exhibition at the National Library. Mr Janadas, who coordinated the book, explains that Singapore’s 1963 merger with Malaysia was fraught from the outset, with the 1964 race riots further straining ties. Finance Minister Dr Goh Keng Swee kept a private file he code-named “Albatross”, a reference to the bird in Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s famous 1798 poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, symbolising the burden of the troubled merger. Documents inside the file range from an early Cabinet memo by Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew to the final Separation Agreement, and includes Dr Goh’s handwritten notes of his meetings with Malaysian leaders. Mr Janadas highlights how merger with Malaysia was a fundamental aim of Mr Lee’s People’s Action Party. It is something young Singaporeans today might find hard to understand, he acknowledges. But the merger was problematic, and proposals for a looser federation eventually collapsed, derailed by unclear terms and British anxieties as Indonesia’s Confrontation was then raging. Dr Goh led the talks for Singapore, navigating sensitive issues and political tensions. Within the Singapore leadership, views differed on whether Singapore should — or could — make it alone. Dr Goh pushed for going separate ways as the best option, while ministers Toh Chin Chye and S. Rajaratnam opposed separation once they learnt of it. Mr Lee was deeply torn, but ultimately authorised the move. Within a few years, Singapore's leaders concluded that Separation was the best outcome for Singapore.

Our guest reveals pioneer leaders’ differing views on Singapore’s Aug 9, 1965 split from Malaysia. Synopsis: The Straits Times’ chief columnist Sumiko Tan speaks to Janadas Devan, senior adviser at the Ministry of Digital Development and Information, on how the The Albatross File: Inside Separation sheds fresh light on the decisions that led to Singapore’s independence. Edited by Susan Sim, the 488-page volume is co-published by Straits Times Press and the National Archives of Singapore, and was launched by Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Dec 7 alongside an exhibition at the National Library. Mr Janadas, who coordinated the book, explains that Singapore’s 1963 merger with Malaysia was fraught from the outset, with the 1964 race riots further straining ties. Finance Minister Dr Goh Keng Swee kept a private file he code-named “Albatross”, a reference to the bird in Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s famous 1798 poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, symbolising the burden of the troubled merger. Documents inside the file range from an early Cabinet memo by Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew to the final Separation Agreement, and includes Dr Goh’s handwritten notes of his meetings with Malaysian leaders. Mr Janadas highlights how merger with Malaysia was a fundamental aim of Mr Lee’s People’s Action Party. It is something young Singaporeans today might find hard to understand, he acknowledges. But the merger was problematic, and proposals for a looser federation eventually collapsed, derailed by unclear terms and British anxieties as Indonesia’s Confrontation was then raging. Dr Goh led the talks for Singapore, navigating sensitive issues and political tensions. Within the Singapore leadership, views differed on whether Singapore should — or could — make it alone. Dr Goh pushed for going separate ways as the best option, while ministers Toh Chin Chye and S. Rajaratnam opposed separation once they learnt of it. Mr Lee was deeply torn, but ultimately authorised the move. Within a few years, Singapore's leaders concluded that Separation was the best outcome for Singapore. Mr Janadas also reflects on his father, Mr Devan Nair, who was the only PAP MP voted into the Malaysian Parliament at the time. When the two sides separated, his father decided to stay on in Malaysia, only returning to Singapore in 1969.

New to Solo? Start here! This re-release from the early days of the pod covers a concept that comes up again and again—in the podcast and Peter McGraw's book. The “relationship escalator” is the default path of dating, moving in, marrying, and merging lives. Amy Gahran, who coined the term, joins Peter to break it all down. We explore what the escalator is, why it's so invisible, and how Solos step off it—through consensual non-monogamy, platonic partnerships, sexual friendships, or simply going Solo.Love the show?

During the summer season, warmer temperatures and muted levels of demand should traditionally bring length to the LPG markets. This certainly appears to have materialized in the propane markets, but a tightness in the butane market seems to be painting a different picture. How has supply been affected over the summer months, and what can we expect from the LPG market in the short-term with re-emerging trends such as winter gasoline blending? Join host Gary Clark in a conversation with frontline reporters Geraint Moody and Matthew Tracey-Cook.  

In this episode of The Innovation Storytellers Show, I sit down with Thai Nguyen, Managing Director of Diverge, the corporate venture and innovation arm of Hensel Phelps. With more than 20 years of experience in architecture and construction, Thai is charting a bold new path for the built environment by reimagining how disruptive solutions are discovered, tested, and scaled. From laser scanning and drones to the rise of robotics and generative AI, Thai shares how innovation is reshaping everything from fieldwork to leadership mindsets. We explore why simplicity is key to adoption, how “field first” thinking drives sustainable change, and why empathy is critical when overcoming resistance to new technology. This conversation goes far beyond blueprints and buildings. Thai opens up about his nonlinear career journey, the appetite for change that has guided him, and his vision for creating a culture of open collaboration across the construction industry.  Whether you are in tech, design, or business leadership, his insights on navigating complexity, balancing people with technology, and leading through uncertainty will resonate.

In this episode, I shoot down last episode's proposal -- at least in the version I discussed -- based on an amazing observation from an astonishing paper, "Gödel's system T revisited", by Alves, Fernández, Florido, and Mackie.  Linear System T is diverging, as they reveal through a short but clever example.  It is even diverging if one requires that the iterator can only be reduced when the function to be iterated is closed (no free variables).  This extraordinary observation does not sink Victor's idea of basing type theory on a terminating untyped core language, but it does sink the specific language he and I were thinking about, namely affine lambda calculus plus structural recursion.My notes are here.

In this episode, Tamara and Casey discuss the conclusion of the YA fantasy duology, 'Six Crimson Cranes', 'The Dragon's Promise'.

The conversation around transportation in Denver can often feel like two steps forward, one step back. RTD built out a massive network of light rail lines thirty years ago, but now thousands of Denverites have abandoned the trains. Our elected officials talk a lot about ending traffic fatalities, but hesitate on making transformative changes to our streets. For almost ten years, Nate Minor has reported on Denver's unique transportation quandaries and challenges, driving the conversation on everything from RTD to bike lanes. But now he's leaving town for a job in Minnesota. So he's back on with host Bree Davies one last time to look back and share a few predictions. Nate mentioned Mayor Johnston's comments on transportation on our show back in February. For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.
