The MSP market is undergoing a critical shift toward risk management as the central value proposition, with operational accountability now defined by the ability to produce defensible documentation and deliver rapid incident response. According to Dave Sobel, MSPs are no longer primarily offering stack management, but are increasingly brokering risk through cyber warranties, insurance underwriting, incident retainers, and AI governance frameworks. Those unable to support their claims with evidence and formal processes risk becoming mere facilitators for third-party terms and losing control over their margins. Recent developments reinforce this shift. A Splunk report finds that nearly all CISOs now view AI governance and risk management as their responsibility, citing threat actor sophistication as a primary driver. AI is assisting with event triage and data correlation, but verification—especially around AI-generated content—is unreliable, with detection tools struggling against advanced fakes. Insurance mechanisms are becoming productized with prioritized incident response, and legal intelligence is being embedded into MSP workflows. Vendors like N-able, Monjur, SentinelOne, and DocuSign are directly integrating financial, legal, and governance functions into their offerings, fundamentally altering client and vendor relationships. Adjacent stories illustrate volatility in traditional safeguards and the operational reality of adaptive threats. CISA leadership changes indicate instability in public response institutions. AI-powered malware exemplifies the challenge: ESET's PromptSpy uses Gemini to continuously adapt its persistence, outpacing static detection models. Insurance underwriters are increasingly demanding machine-verifiable evidence of controls, using detailed questionnaires to distinguish autonomous AI from marketing claims. The risk is no longer just technical; it is structural. For MSPs and IT leaders, operational posture is now shaped by an ecosystem of embedded warranties, legal terms, governance requirements, and adaptive threats. The ability to document, defend, and productize risk controls becomes a baseline for credibility and insurance eligibility. Failure to build evidence pipelines and clarify vendor-imposed liabilities exposes service providers to compounded risk. The practical implication is a necessity for MSPs to treat governance and detection as measurable, documented capabilities—not assumptions or routine paperwork. Three things to know today: 00:00 CISOs Own Governance, Detectors Lag Fakes, Response Gets Contracted — Accountability Follows 03:14 N-able, SentinelOne, DocuSign Move Risk Management Into the Stack — MSP Terms Follow 05:10 CISOs Want Agentic AI, But Insurers and Adaptive Malware Are Forcing the Timeline 07:32 Why Do We Care?  Supported by:  CometBackUpSmall Biz Thoughts Community

In this second part of our series on engineering organizations, Jeff and Luca explore how companies that build products should focus their efforts differently depending on their stage and scope. We start with startups and early-stage companies desperately searching for product-market fit, where the brutal truth is: quality doesn't matter yet. Your MVP should embarrass you—if it doesn't, you waited too long. We discuss the critical mental shift from throwaway prototypes to proper engineering once validation arrives, and why technical founders often fail by solving the wrong problem brilliantly. Moving up the ladder, we examine narrow-focus companies that have found their niche—like the German firm that does nothing but maintain a 100-year-old anchor chain machine, or specialists in medium-power electrical switches. These companies win through efficiency and deep expertise, but face existential risk if the market shifts. Finally, we tackle wide-focus companies introducing multiple product lines, where the challenge becomes running internal startups while managing established products, each requiring radically different approaches. The key insight: your focus must match your product's lifecycle stage, whether that's ruthless speed, cost optimization, or high-level process learning. Key Topics [02:30] Startups and early-stage companies: the existential search for product-market fit [06:45] The MVP philosophy: if you're not embarrassed, you waited too long [11:20] Quality vs. speed vs. scope: why quality doesn't matter in early stages [15:40] The Potemkin village approach: building facades to validate demand [19:15] Embedded products and MVPs: when physical products need creative shortcuts [23:50] The critical switch: from prototypes to proper engineering after validation [28:30] Narrow-focus companies: German hidden champions and deep specialization [34:10] Wide-focus companies: running internal startups within established organizations [40:25] Product teams and parallel focuses: managing different lifecycle stages simultaneously [45:00] Large established companies: high-level process learning and avoiding organizational weight Notable Quotes "If you read the Lean Startup, they will explicitly say: if you weren't embarrassed by your MVP, you waited too long. It really has to be painfully flimsy because you cannot afford to do it well." — Luca "Quality doesn't even factor because you're very explicitly building mock-ups from chewing gum and paper mache. They are fully intended to be thrown away." — Luca "Getting that product-market fit is existential. You will die if you do not get it and get it relatively quickly." — Jeff Resources Mentioned The Lean Startup - Eric Ries' book discussing MVP philosophy and the importance of being embarrassed by your first product The Mom Test - Rob Fitzpatrick's book about getting real customer feedback and validation through financial commitment The Art of Innovation - Tom Kelley's book on IDEO's design process, including the clothespin switch story Luca's Website - Trainings on embedded agile, AI in embedded systems, and more Jeff's Website - Consulting services for medical device software development You can find Jeff at https://jeffgable.com.You can find Luca at https://luca.engineer.Want to join the agile Embedded Slack?

Deals worth millions still start with a handshake, even as AI prices risk in milliseconds. We dive into Finance X's milestone 20th edition to map how insurance is shifting from shiny apps to deep architecture—modern MGAs that wrap legacy balance sheets with real-time data, AI underwriting engines, and API-driven distribution. We explore why authenticity is the scarce signal in a world of perfect pitches, how events flip mindsets from inbox defense to open discovery, and why only a small slice of conversations become sales yet compound into 12–18 month wins.From there, we trace the product and capital overhauls defining 2026. Cyber coverage now operates like an active security service, preventing claims before they exist. Embedded insurance matures beyond checkout buttons into full lifecycle servicing that handles midterm changes, complex claims, and audits without ejecting users into legacy workflows. As data volumes surge, open insurance and the EU's FIDA framework push hard questions about governance, access, and monetization—balancing privacy with the data liquidity AI needs to perform.On the balance sheet, risk migrates into global capital markets via insurance-linked securities. Parametric triggers and smart contracts deliver instant, objective payouts and uncorrelated yield, while sovereign ILS turns pre-funding resilience into a macroeconomic stabilizer. Regional spotlights ground the theory: Belgium's SME consolidation accelerates with M&A insurance replacing escrow; Romania's Web3 oracles reveal the clash between “code is law” and civil law; and Ireland sets the bar with a simple standard—tested, evidenced, defensible. We close with the core dilemma: when frictionless systems fail, does accountability rest with the algorithm or the human who shook on the deal?If this lens helps you navigate AI underwriting, MGAs, embedded servicing, ILS, and the coming wave of financial market infrastructure change, follow the show, share it with a colleague, and leave a review with your biggest question—we'll feature the best ones next time.Thank you for tuning into our podcast about global trends in the FinTech industry.Check out our podcast channel.Learn more about The Connector.

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross breaks down the so-called “SaaSpocalypse” after $1 trillion in SaaS market cap vanished in a single week. While headlines scream that “AI will replace SaaS,” Ross argues the reality is far more nuanced. He introduces a three-part framework ; Exposed, Embedded, Evolved , and outlines the strategic shifts founders and marketers must make to survive and compound in the age of AI agents. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The $1 Trillion Wake-Up Call -SaaS stocks were crushed in early 2026, triggering fear across markets. -AI agents, LLM advancements, and disappointing earnings accelerated the correction. -The dominant narrative says AI will replace SaaS , but the situation is more complex. -Market fear is loud. Structural change is quieter, but very real. 2.AI Agents, Vibe Coding & the Death of Per-Seat Pricing? -AI agents interacting directly with APIs challenge traditional SaaS interfaces. -“Vibe coding” demonstrates how quickly software can now be replicated. -Per-seat pricing models are under pressure as automation scales output. -The interface is shifting from dashboards to conversations. 3.The Data Reality Most People Ignore -Global SaaS spending is projected to grow from $318B (2025) to $500B+ (2028). -Enterprise contracts and deep dependencies don't disappear overnight. -Pricing models may change. Market leaders may change. -Software demand isn't vanishing, it's evolving. 4.The Extinction Stack: Exposed, Embedded, Evolved -SaaS companies fall into three survival tiers. -Not all SaaS companies face equal risk. -Your future depends on depth of integration and data moat. -Operators must identify where they sit, now. 5.Type 1: The Exposed -Horizontal point solutions with weak moats and low switching costs. -Easily replicated with AI tools in days or weeks. -Rely on habit rather than proprietary advantage. -Most vulnerable to margin compression and churn. 6.Type 2: The Embedded -Deeply integrated systems of record inside enterprises. -Painful and complex to replace due to migration risk. -The risk isn't extinction ,it's interface disruption. -Must become AI-first before agents abstract them away. 7. Type 3: The Evolved -AI-native or aggressively AI-integrated platforms. -Built on proprietary data, regulatory moats, and deep user memory. -AI increases the value of their data advantage. -Positioned not just to survive, but accelerate. 8.Distribution Is the New Defensive Moat -AI can replicate features. It cannot replicate trust. -Brand equity, audience relationships, and distribution compound. -As product development gets cheaper, distribution becomes the advantage. -This is the moment to double down on quality and amplification. 9.From Time-Based to Outcome-Based Thinking -Per-seat and time-based pricing models face structural pressure. -The future favors outcome-driven pricing and accountability. -Buyers will demand measurable impact, not access. -Service businesses must shift from hours sold to results delivered. 10. Intentional AI vs Fear-Based AI -Two types of teams are emerging: intentional adopters and reactive adopters. -AI without process creates noise, not leverage. -10,000 mediocre AI assets won't move the needle. -10 strategic, AI-enabled assets can change a business trajectory. —

My latest guest is Chris Black, CEO of Thread Bank, a Nashville-based community bank that has been purpose-built around embedded banking. Chris came to banking by way of a career as an Air Force pilot, followed by time on Wall Street analyzing banks during the financial crisis, before eventually making his way into community banking in Nashville. He partnered with fintech investor Joe Maxwell of Fintop Capital to recapitalize a small Tennessee bank and transform it into an embedded banking platform focused on vertical software companies serving small businesses.In our conversation, Chris talks about how Thread navigated the BaaS regulatory storm of 2023 and 2024, what they look for in fintech partners, and how their fiduciary-first philosophy was already in place long before regulators came calling. We also discuss the wave of fintechs now seeking bank charters, the future of community banking in America, and what Thread has on the horizon with the launch of embedded lending and merchant acquiring.In this podcast you will learn:Lessons Chris learned during his time in the Air Force.How the idea for Thread Bank came together.How they took the acquired bank and made it ready for embedded banking.When they took on their first fintech partner.What they are looking for in a fintech partner.Where Chris sees the biggest opportunity for Thread.How Thread navigated the BaaS regulatory hurricane of 2023 and 2024.Why the shift in regulatory focus with the Trump Administration has not changed their thinking.What Chris thinks about all the fintechs that are now acquiring bank charters.What it takes for a new fintech to be onboarded with Thread.The process when a fintech wants to do something that Thread does not think is reasonable.The key to a thriving community bank sector over the next decade.What exciting developments are coming down the pipe.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

Is banking really changing at the core, or are we just putting better apps on old rails?In this episode of Couchonomics with Arjun, Arjun is joined in studio by Jayesh Patel, CEO of Wio Bank PJSC, to unpack what real transformation inside a bank actually looks like, how AI is reshaping operating models, and why stablecoins may compress time in money movement far more than most people realize.They break down the difference between digitizing processes and restructuring around the customer, why SME banking still has structural gaps, and how Wio is building with micro AI agents, smart offices, and long term product bets like family banking. They also dive into crypto as an investment class, regulated stablecoins in the UAE, and whether banks should issue, distribute, or build on top of digital currencies.

Send a textIn this episode of Embedded Insiders,  Mikko Savolainen, Silicon Labs' Senior Product Line Director of Commercial, joins the podcast to discuss the partnership between Silicon Labs and Emanate Wireless on the RadioVision solution. The battery-powered, AI-enabled Bluetooth doorway chokepoint system is a Real-Time Location System (RTLS) designed to help hospitals accurately track staff, patients, and equipment. Watch the video segment here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwJoOMbcg4gNext, Rich and Simon Ford, the Founder of Blecon, discuss the joining forces of Bluetooth and Industrial, and how Bluetooth is enmeshed in the industrial sector. But first, we're highlighting some recent research from Penn State on DNA-based data storage. Researchers have combined synthetic DNA with electronic materials to create a brand-new kind of computer memory. For more information, visit embeddedcomputing.com

Bluetooth is everywhere, right? Until recently, I would have said “Almost everywhere,” since it hadn't yet affected the industrial sector. However, according to Simon Ford, the Founder of Blecon, Bluetooth has now entered that final frontier. It's done so for obvious reasons, like power, performance, and ubiquity, and a few other reasons. Hear what Simon has to say on this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

The cross-border payments market remains stubbornly difficult despite billions in venture capital and countless smart founders attacking the problem. The core challenge isn't technology—it's economics. Western Union's margins weren't exploitative greed; they reflected the brutal reality of cash distribution networks, compliance infrastructure, and dual-country regulatory overhead. Palla Financial cracked this by inverting the entire model: instead of fighting for expensive US-based senders, they partnered with Latin American banks to let recipients pull funds. This approach taps into the world's largest remittance corridor ($160+ billion annually flowing from the US to Latin America) while sidestepping the customer acquisition bloodbath. In this episode, Enrique Perezalonso, CEO of Palla Financial, breaks down why recipient-driven payments eliminate distribution costs, how they rebuilt their product three times based on bank feedback, and why the "no CAC" embedded model still requires massive partner investment to actually work. Topics Discussed: Why cross-border payments remain broken: dual-country regulations, cash distribution economics, and two-sided transaction complexity The shift from cash-based infrastructure to digital rails and its impact on unit economics Palla's pull-based model: embedding payment requests inside bank apps to flip sender/recipient dynamics Revenue mechanics: $3 consumer fees, FX markup economics, and interchange/revenue sharing with bank partners The buy-vs-build calculus for banks and why a Central American banking group returned after a four-year internal build attempt Creating a new category and watching competitors attempt to copy the embedded approach Selling into banks with no standardized buyer: navigating from remittance teams to CEOs depending on organizational maturity The reality of "indirect" CAC: why embedded distribution still requires heavy investment in partner success Implementation failures and the shift from hands-off best practices to consultative partner enablement GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Flip expensive distribution by attacking the other side of the transaction: While competitors burned cash acquiring US-based senders in saturated corridors (US-Mexico, US-India), Palla partnered with recipient-side banks in Latin America. Banks gained deposits, interchange revenue, and digital channel differentiation without building infrastructure. The lesson isn't just "find cheaper distribution"—it's recognizing that two-sided markets have two potential wedges, and the less obvious side may offer superior economics and strategic positioning. Target buyers who already tried and failed to build: A Central American banking group spent nine months evaluating Palla, decided to build internally, then returned four years later. This wasn't poor execution—it was competing priorities, lack of scale economics, and the reality that cross-border payments isn't their core business. The strongest signal for partnership readiness isn't interest, it's previous build attempts that stalled. These buyers understand the problem deeply and won't need convincing on value. "Embedded" and "no CAC" are myths without massive partner investment: Palla initially provided best practice guides and light coaching, assuming banks would naturally drive adoption. They saw "lackluster results" until they became "more and more hands-on," shifting to consultative implementation with proper incentive design and accountability frameworks. The volume business requires scale, and scale requires active partner management. Budget for partner success resources as if you're hiring an implementation consulting team, not just doing integrations. Use speed to rebuild the product in real-time with customers: The product Palla launched bears little resemblance to their original vision. They rebuilt features "hand in hand" with bank partners, leveraging their advantage over large competitors: no bureaucracy, hunger to make it work, and speed. This isn't about "customer feedback"—it's about treating early partners as co-developers and having the discipline to throw away your original roadmap when partners show you what actually solves their problem. Extreme focus means saying no to everything adjacent: Palla deliberately limits themselves to "two or three products" all within cross-border payments, explicitly avoiding cross-sell opportunities and adjacent revenue streams. Enrique notes this is both their moat and "a potential pitfall" when opportunities multiply with success. The discipline isn't about focus when you're struggling—it's about maintaining focus when growth creates endless plausible expansions. Each "yes" to something new is a "no" to deepening your core advantage. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

In this episode of "Gerrin' on wi' it," Paul Hayes speaks with Dr Dan Olner from the University of Sheffield about bridging the gap between academia and local government. As a policy fellow embedded within the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA), Dan shares his experiences working at the intersection of data science, regional economic policy, and collaborative governance. Dan discusses his dual role as both university researcher and embedded policy analyst, explaining how he helps answer critical questions about South Yorkshire's economy, growth sectors, and regional strengths. Rather than operating as a traditional academic expert transmitting knowledge from on high, he describes a collaborative model where experts from different backgrounds work together on equal footing. Dan contrasts his ongoing, open approach with traditional consultant models, emphasising the value of sustained relationships and accessible data. The conversation also examines the sustainability of such embedded roles, the benefits to both academics and policymakers, and the need for collaborative funding from national bodies, regional authorities, and universities to mainstream this type of engagement. Ultimately, Dan makes a compelling case for why these bridging roles matter for evidence-based policymaking and regional development. This episode was recorded on 17 December 2025. If you would like to get in touch, please contact contact@y-pern.org.uk. A transcript of this episode is available. About the speakers: Paul Hayes is Senior Policy Engagement Fellow at Leeds University Business School, supporting academic colleagues in developing impacts from their work and in engaging with the policy community and public bodies. He was formerly corporate policy manager at Wakefield Council and policy lead for the Key Cities Group, an association of 27 mid-size UK cities. This role encompassed policy advisory work to local, regional and national politicians; development and authorship of local and regional strategies and plans; engagement with and representation on working groups of UK government and national bodies; and responses to consultations. The role also included scoping, commissioning, and joint development of academic and think tank research and engagement with business and voluntary and community sectors. Dr Dan Olner is a data analyst and geographer based in the School of Management at Sheffield University and, through the Yorkshire & Humber Policy Engagement Research Network (Y-PERN), is working with South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority on all things economic and regional and data. Dan hasn't strayed far from Yorkshire, studying politics at Sheffield University and a PhD at Leeds University. Find out about Dan's work at

When revenue is unpredictable, leadership is reactive. But what materially changes when your data finally stabilizes and your "revenue machine" starts humming? Courtney Baker, David DeWolf, and Mohan Rao wrap up our RevOps mini-series by defining the shift from departmental "counseling" to data-driven confidence. They explore how replacing anxiety with evidence-based discipline turns gut-feel debates into high-velocity decisions, allowing leaders to see around the curve and fix account issues before they become post-mortems. Alyssa Nolte joins us for part two of her conversation with Courtney. They talk about the intersection of AI and customer success, featuring a provocative hot take: if you haven't sacrificed something you want for a customer, you aren't actually customer-centric. Alyssa explains why your AI strategy must align with your true identity—whether you are product, operation, or customer-focused—to ensure your implementation doesn't feel disconnected from your mission.

“What's Buggin' You” segment for Monday 2-23-26

We've Been Calling This Normal | Dr. Gabor Maté on Trauma, Stress, and Modern Life What if many of the pressures we accept as ordinary life are actually conditions the human nervous system experiences as chronic threat? Episode Description For generations, we have normalized stress, emotional suppression, relentless productivity, and disconnection from our own needs, treating them as the price of success. Dr. Gabor Maté argues that what we call normal in modern society often reflects patterns of adaptation to environments our biology was never designed to navigate. . But what if trauma is not primarily psychological at all? What if it is biological? Embedded. Lived through the nervous system long after the event is over. . In this profound and deeply human conversation, Dov Baron sits down with Dr. Gabor Maté to challenge one of the most entrenched assumptions in modern culture. That suffering is a personal failure rather than a physiological imprint of lived experience. . Together, they explore how addiction, anxiety, chronic illness, perfectionism, and even high achievement can emerge from the same root. Not moral weakness. Not a lack of discipline. But adaptive responses to disconnection, stress, and unmet developmental needs. . This episode is not about diagnosing what is wrong with people. It is about understanding what happened to them and what their bodies learned to survive it. . And more importantly, what becomes possible when we stop asking, "What's wrong with you?" and begin asking, "What happened to you?" In This Episode You'll Discover Why trauma is not defined by events, but by how the nervous system adapts to them How addiction often begins as an attempt at self regulation, not escape The hidden link between chronic stress and physical disease Why high-functioning success can mask unresolved developmental wounds How modern culture normalizes disconnection while pathologizing its symptoms The difference between intellectual insight and embodied healing Why compassion is not soft science, but biological necessity How reconnecting to authenticity becomes the foundation of real resilience   Why This Conversation Matters Now We live in an era that rewards performance while quietly eroding connection. Many leaders are celebrated for endurance while their nervous systems remain locked in survival mode. Dr. Maté's work reframes healing not as fixing broken individuals, but as restoring relationship. Relationship to self. To the body. To meaning. To one another. This is not self help. It is a paradigm shift in how we understand human behavior, health, and leadership. About Dr. Gabor Maté Dr. Gabor Maté is a physician, speaker, and internationally recognized authority on trauma, addiction, stress, and human development. His work bridges neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience to illuminate how early environments shape lifelong patterns of health, behavior, and identity. He is widely known for challenging conventional medical models by integrating compassion, connection, and social context into the understanding of illness and healing.

In this episode, Cherise is joined by Gianpiero Pugliese, Founding Principal at Audax with offices in Toronto, Ontario, and Palm Beach, Florida. They discuss St. Catherine's Chapel in Florence, Italy.You can see the project here as you listen along.Saint Catherine's Chapel is conceived as an architectural excavation rather than an object placed in the landscape. Embedded entirely beneath an artificial hill in Viola Park, the chapel asserts its presence through spatial sequence and light rather than mass or monumentality. Carrara marble is employed for liturgical furnishings, anchoring the space in both regional material tradition and architectural longevity.If you enjoy this episode, visit arcat.com/podcast for more.If you're a frequent listener of Detailed, you might enjoy similar content at Gābl Media.Mentioned in this episode:Social Channel Pre-rollPromotes the YouTube channel, ARACTemy, and social handle.

What happens when our homes get smarter than ever… while we also crave going totally unplugged? In this episode of I AM HOME, the team explores a major shift shaping home life in 2026: design and lifestyle trends are moving in two very different directions at once. "Bells & Whistles" trends are making homes smarter with AI health tools, pet wearables, beauty gadgets and elevated kitchen upgrades, while "Less Bells & Whistles" is pushing back with fewer screens, more hands-on comfort and retro tech like turntables and CD players. The takeaway? The future of home isn't all high-tech or all unplugged – it's intentional, blending innovation with calm to create spaces that truly support everyday life. Resources: nfm.com/podcast

Bluetooth claims to own the low-power wireless space with its Low Energy (LE) flavor. A newer, yet older entrant in the space wants to claim that throne. That would be Low Energy UWB, or LE-UWB. And now you understand the reference to newer-older. UWB has been around for many years, but the LE variant is relatively new. In addition to lower power, it also offers a much higher bandwidth than Bluetooth, amongst other benefits, all of which are detailed by Frederic Nabki, the Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of SPARK Microsystems. Frederic joined me on this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

What would change if, instead of prioritizing romantic relationships, we made friendships the center of our lives?

Julie Brams is an Earth-centered psychotherapist, meditation teacher, and author of The Nature Embedded Mind: How the Way We Think Can Heal Our Planet and Ourselves. Her work sits at the intersection of psychology, ecology, and social justice, exploring how our deep sense of separation from nature affects both personal well-being and collective health. Drawing from clinical practice, scientific research, and lived experience, Julie challenges Western psychology's assumptions and invites a new foundation for mental health—one rooted in reconnecting with Earth and remembering that we are not separate from nature, but embedded within it.Find Julie Brams and The Nature Embedded Mind: How the Way We Think Can Heal Our Planet and Ourselves online:Julie Brams - HomepageJulie Brams, LMFT - InstagramThe Nature Embedded Mind: How the Way We Think Can Heal Our Planet and Ourselves - BookFind me online:This Sustainable Life: Solve For Nature Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://shows.acast.com/solvefornatureBlog: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://verdantgrowth.blog/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/c/verdantgrowth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/verdantgrowth.bsky.socialFacebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/realverdantgrowth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://instagram.com/verdant.growth ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://instagram.com/verdantgrowthofficial Hosted on Acast.

If you think that the sales tax that's shown on your receipt is the only tax you're paying on a retail transaction, you are sadly mistaken.  You don't see it on your receipt, but today's retail prices are significantly inflated by the billions of dollars in costs that the federal income tax system imposes on businesses of every size.This week, the FAIRtax Guys revisit chapter five of Boortz and Linder's FAIRtax book to explain how the income tax system drives up the price of everything you buy.

This episode is shared from Critical Care, a podcast produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace.What happens when sustainment stops being a service and becomes a partnership?In this episode of Critical Care, produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace, we head to Vliegbasis Woensdrecht in the Netherlands to see a new model of military aviation support in action — one that places engineers not behind desks, but on the hangar floor, shoulder to shoulder with pilots and technicians.Colonel Ted Meeuwsen of the Royal Netherlands Air Force shares how an initial contractor relationship with Collins evolved into something far deeper: an embedded, trust-based collaboration that has transformed how quickly sustainment issues are resolved — often within hours, not weeks. What began as workshop-level support for helmet systems has grown into a dynamic model of co-located engineering, real-time diagnostics and a shared commitment to mission readiness.We also hear from Chris Norris and Michael Nelson of Collins Aerospace, who explain how this approach goes far beyond shortening repair cycles. It reduces risk, enhances sovereignty, and creates a blueprint for other nations facing similar challenges.As the pace of technology accelerates and operational demands mount, this episode shows how co-location, communication and collaboration can reshape sustainment from a supply chain issue into a strategic advantage.Next time, we look ahead to the technologies set to revolutionise sustainment — from AI-powered diagnostics to predictive maintenance and condition-based logistics.

There are many different ways to look at the tangled web of AI. For example, tackling from the inference perspective is one way of looking at the puzzle, as not everyone is doing that. One vendor, who may have a leg up, is VSORA, who claims to "make AI more accessible, efficient, and sustainable than ever.” That sounds like a tall order, but a great move to reaching that goal is to bring along someone who's actually climbed the mountain before. In this case, that would be Sandra Rivera, a long-time Intel veteran and former CEO of Altera, and now the Chairwoman of the Board at VSORA. Sandra was my guest on this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

In this week's podcast, we're exploring the three trends poised to redefine how we design, simulate, and deploy complex systems in 2026 and beyond: agentic AI and the model context protocol for tool integration, hybrid terrestrial and non‑terrestrial wireless networks, and moving AI onto embedded hardware using virtual sensing and reduced‑order models. My guests, Seth DeLand and Houman Zarrinkoub from MathWorks, and I explore the practical problems in engineering workflows driving interest in agentic AI, the engineering challenges of hybrid terrestrial and non‑terrestrial wireless networks, and how smaller AI models can enable faster simulation and real‑time system responses.

Episode 87 of The Mental Game features Troy Moles, Ph.D., CMPC, HSPP — the Director of Counseling & Sport Psychology for Indiana University Athletics.Why should you listen? Fresh off Indiana's historic football National Championship, Moles is uniquely positioned to tell you what truly lies behind the “championship culture” you often hear discussed in the media.Embedded inside an athletic department, Moles occupies a rare hybrid role. As a licensed psychologist, he oversees mental health services for IU student-athletes. As a certified mental performance consultant, he also helps athletes perform under pressure, build confidence, and navigate the mental demands of high-level competition.A former collegiate track and field student-athlete himself, Moles has spent his career working directly with performers in real, high-stakes environments — from individual athletes battling confidence swings to entire teams navigating pressure, injury, and identity beyond sport. His background includes work at Miami (Ohio) University, Premier Sport Psychology, and the University of North Texas Center for Sport Psychology & Performance Enhancement.On this episode of The Mental Game, Moles…Breaks down the “championship culture” in Indiana's athletic departmentExplains what really happens in the brain during high-pressure moments and why athletes tighten upDives into how revenue sharing, NIL and gambling affect student-athlete mental healthAnd much more…The Mental Game podcast is produced by Sam Brief and music is courtesy of David Brief and Channel J.

Saunders and embedded systems expert Elecia White, host of Embedded.fm and author of Making Embedded Systems, to discuss the trade-offs of using open source in embedded development. The conversation goes beyond debates about “open vs. proprietary” to explore how a single library can quietly introduce sprawling dependency chains, unclear maintenance responsibilities, licensing obligations, and long-term security exposure,  especially in devices expected to operate for years or decades. Elecia and Joe share guidance for using open source intentionally, including how to set guardrails early, limit dependency blast radius, and design systems that can respond when vulnerabilities emerge, even when patching isn't easy. Together, they cover: Why embedded teams don't get burned by open source, they get burned by unexamined dependenciesHow transitive dependencies and “helpful” packages quietly expand attack surfaceWhy professionalism, documentation, and disclosure practices signal trustworthy projectsWhy build-time SBOMs matter more than after-the-fact analysisHow Secure by Design thinking reduces reliance on emergency patching For embedded engineers, product leaders, and security teams balancing delivery pressure with long-lived risk, this episode offers advice for using open source without inheriting future incidents.The podcast and artwork embedded on this page are from RunSafe Security, which is the property of its owner and not affiliated with or endorsed by Listen Notes, Inc.

In this episode from our archive we spoke to the archeologist and broadcaster Neil Oliver, a figure familiar to millions in the UK. While Oliver's television work has taken him around the world, he retains a special connection to his Scottish homeland. One historical site, in particular, continues to enchant him: Skara Brae. Skara Brae on the wind scoured Orkney Islands is the best-preserved Neolithic settlement in all of western Europe. Embedded inside its stone houses and in the surviving monuments are tantalising clues to how our ancient ancestors lived and how they died. In this episode Oliver takes us back four and a half millennia to around 2,500BC to see Skara Brae as a dynamic, living community. He then explains the mysteries that surround its abandoment and considers the significance of the settlement to us today. Show notes Scene One: A day in the life of Skara Brae Scene Two: The great mystery of the settlement's abandonment Scene Three: Where did the people go?

I don't know anyone who enjoys filing their taxes. It is something we begrudgingly do every April, or earlier for the well-organized, and it is usually a somewhat painful exercise. What if filing your taxes was easy, taking less than 30 minutes? What if tax planning wasn't a once-a-year chore but an embedded feature in your banking app, payroll platform, or investment account?In this episode, I sit down with Ben Borodach, founder and CEO of april, the first company to build a nationally licensed tax engine in over 15 years. Ben shares how april is transforming tax from an annual burden into real-time financial intelligence, partnering with banks, fintechs, and payroll platforms to embed tax services directly into the financial tools Americans already use. We discuss the massive technical challenge of building tax infrastructure from scratch, why embedded tax makes sense for financial institutions, and how bringing tax decisions to the point of transaction, whether selling stock, adjusting payroll withholding, or buying a home, can fundamentally change how people manage their financial lives.In this podcast you will learn:How he came to the idea of building a fintech company focused on tax.How april was incubated inside Team8.Why they decided to create an embedded tax solution rather than go direct to consumer.What their product offering does.How they are helping consumers to think about taxes beyond once a year.The three categories of companies they are focused on.Why banks should be offering tax services to their customers.Why being integrated into the banking cores is not a high priority right now.How april is different to the big tax providers, TurboTax and H&R Block.How their customers present the tax offerings.What it means to be a nationally licensed e-file provider.How they integrate with the IRS and the state tax agencies.How they are leveraging the growth of embedded finance.What is involved from a technology perspective to integrate with april.How he thinks about tax policy, as a tax infrastructure company.Ben's vision for april.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

This is despite US tariffs which were initially set at to 49%, but later negotiated down to ~20%. At the same time, Chinese exports to the US plunged -40% YoY in Q3 2025. This comes as the region has a massive cost advantage over US and European manufacturing, which ranges from 20% to 100%, even after tariffs. Companies use Southeast Asian economies as alternative export bases to avoid China’s 37% reciprocal tariff. As a result, the amount of trade rerouting from China hit a record $23.7 billion in September.

Anchored by the Trump Corollary, asserting a sovereign, American‑led Western Hemisphere and demonstrated in both the flawless military operation in Venezuela and the broader regime‑pressure strategy, this doctrine is not theater but an integrated fusion of economic, security, and hemispheric power. These changes are as profound in their structural implications as the original Jacksonian pivot, and those who assume Trump is a merely performative politician and strategist are therefore sorely mistaken, confusing a disruptive style with a coherent focused project to realign America's coalition, its economic model, and its role in the world.

Greenland is the theatre where any strategic exchange between Washington and Moscow is contested. If you want to intercept a ballistic missile, the best point to do so is at the apogee, at the top of the flight path. The shortest route for an interceptor to get to an apogee is from directly below the apogee. That's where Greenland is. So, without stating what should happen here, this is **why** the Trump administration says they **need** Greenland for national security. The other thing that is happening is that the Northern Passage through the Arctic is opening up, and soon there will be Chinese cargo ships sailing through the Arctic to Rotterdam. It's faster than the Suez and the ships aren't limited to Suezmax size so China and EU trade is going to accelerate a lot. This means Chinese submarines will also be venturing under the Arctic into the Northern Atlantic, IF THEY AREN'T ALREADY DOING SO. Hence, the North East coast of Greenland serves not 1 but 2 critical strategic security objectives of US national security.

Demonstrations have now spread to multiple cities throughout Iran, with citizens openly defying the Islamic Republic and targeting its symbols of power.

They insist the world runs on rules now and that borders are sacred. Also that true power has been replaced by paperwork. This belief is not moral in the least. It's f*****g archaeological. They live inside institutions built by violence, defended by men they no longer understand, and guaranteed by forces they refuse to acknowledge. Like tourists wandering a fortress, they admire the stonework while mocking the idea of a siege. They confuse order with nature. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Then blame the person that reminds them of this. Civilization is not the default state of humanity. It is an achievement that is temporary, fragile, and expensive. It exists only where force once cleared the ground and still quietly patrols the perimeter. A lion does not debate the ethics of hunger. Neither does a starving empire. History is not a morality play, it is a pressure test. When pressure rises, abstractions collapse first. Laws follow power; they do NOT precede it. Property exists only where someone can prevent it from being taken. Sovereignty is not declared, it is enforced. The modern West outsourced this enforcement, then forgot the invoice existed. So when someone points out uncomfortable realities (whether about Greenland, Venezuela, or the broader balance of power) they respond with ritual incantations: “You can't do that.” “That's wrong.” “That's against the rules.” As if the rules themselves are armed. As if history paused because we asked nicely. This is how empires fall. Not from invasion alone, but from conceptual rot. From mistaking a long season of safety for a permanent condition. From believing lethality is immoral instead of foundational. Every civilization that forgot how violence works eventually relearned it the hard way. The conquerors did not arrive because they were monsters; they arrived because their victims could no longer imagine them. The tragedy is not that power still exists. The tragedy is that so many have forgotten it does. Idk who needs to hear this but civilization is a garden grown atop a graveyard. Ignore the soil, and someone else will plant something far less gentle. Hate me for being the messenger and asking the hard questions about conquest if you want. You're just wasting your time. War/Peace Zelenskyy Announces the Appointment of Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister, Chrystia Freeland as Economic Advisor  Chrystia Freeland was the former lead of the Canadian trade delegation when Trudeau realized he needed to try and offset the economic damage within the renegotiated NAFTA agreement known as the USMCA. Freeland was also the lead attack agent behind the debanking effort against Canadian truckers who opposed the vaccine mandate. In addition to holding Ukraine roots, the ideology of Chrystia Freeland as a multinational globalist and promoter for the World Economic Forum's ‘new world order' is well documented.    given the recent revelations about billions of laundered aid funds being skimmed by corrupt members of the Ukraine government, we can only imagine how much of the recovery funds would be apportioned to maintaining the life of indulgence the political leaders expect. In response to the lucrative “voluntary” appointment, Chrystia Freeland has announced her resignation from Canadian government in order to avoid any conflict of interest as the skimming is organized.

The “Coalition of the Willing” (including the UK, France, Germany, and others) is coordinating these pledges to reassure Kyiv, but the framework explicitly ties into U.S.-backed elements like ceasefire verification and long-term armaments.  Russia has not yet shown willingness to compromise on core demands, so the deal’s success remains uncertain, but this step advances the security pillar of the overall plan.

President Trump signs Executive Order 14287 in the Oval Office. The title reads like standard bureaucracy: “Protecting American Communities from Criminal Aliens.” But in the third paragraph, a single phrase changes everything: Sanctuary jurisdictions are engaging in “a lawless insurrection against the supremacy of Federal law.” Insurrection. The exact statutory term from 10 U.S.C. §§ 332-333 . The language that unlocks the Insurrection Act of 1807. Georgetown Law professor Martin Lederman publishes analysis within days. The executive order mirrors Section 334 requirements. The formal proclamation to disperse before military deployment. It designates unlawful actors, issues formal warning, establishes consequences. Governors dismiss it as political theater. Constitutional attorneys recognize something else. The proclamation was already issued. Trump just didn't announce it as such. THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK January 20, 2025. Inauguration Day. Hours after taking the oath, Trump issues Proclamation 10886 declaring a national emergency at the southern border. Section 6(b) requires a joint report within 90 days on whether to invoke the Insurrection Act. The deadline falls April 20, 2025. Eight days later comes Executive Order 14287 . National emergency declaration establishes crisis conditions. The 90-day clock forces formal evaluation. The executive order provides the legal predicate. Section 334 of the Insurrection Act mandates the president issue a proclamation ordering insurgents to disperse before deploying military force. April 28 order satisfies every requirement. It names the actors. Describes their unlawful conduct. Warns of consequences. Grants opportunity to comply. Governors treated it as negotiation leverage. It was legal notification. The trap locked in April 2025. Everything since has been documentation. THE TESTING PHASE Throughout 2025, the administration attempts standard enforcement. National Guard deployments under existing authority. October 4, 2025 . Trump federalizes 300 Illinois National Guard members to protect ICE personnel in Chicago. Governor J.B. Pritzker files immediate legal challenge. Federal courts block the deployment. Posse Comitatus restricts military involvement in domestic law enforcement. November 2025 . Portland judge issues permanent injunction against Guard deployment in Oregon. December 23, 2025 . The Supreme Court denies emergency relief in Trump v. Illinois. Justice Kavanaugh files a brief concurrence with a consequential footnote: “One apparent ramification of the Court's opinion is that it could cause the President to use the U.S. military more than the National Guard.” Northwestern Law professor Paul Gowder decodes the signal : “This is basically an invitation for Trump to go straight to the Insurrection Act next time.” The courts established ordinary measures cannot succeed when states organize systematic resistance. They certified that regular law enforcement has become impracticable. They documented the exact threshold Section 332 requires. The founders designed a system that assumed conflict between federal and state authority. For decades, that friction was suppressed. Emergency powers normalized after 9/11, federal agencies expanded into state domains, courts deferred to administrative expertise. The Guard deployment battles weren't system failure. They were constitutional gravity reasserting itself. Courts blocking deployments under Posse Comitatus didn't weaken Trump's position. They certified that ordinary measures had become impracticable, crossing Section 332's threshold. December 31, 2025 . Trump announces Guard withdrawal from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland via Truth Social. Governor Newsom celebrates: “President Trump has finally admitted defeat.” But the machine's interpretation misreads strategic repositioning as retreat. You cannot claim ordinary measures have been exhausted if contested forces remain deployed. Pull back. Let obstruction resume unchecked. Document the refusal. Then demonstrate what unilateral executive action looks like when constitutional authority aligns. THE DEMONSTRATION Trump v. United States . THE HIDDEN NETWORKS Intelligence sources describe what the roundups since fall 2025 actually target. Embedded cartel operatives running fentanyl distribution chains under state-level protection. The riots following military arrests aren't organic resistance. They're funded backlash from criminal enterprises losing billions. Pre-staged materials appear at protest sites. Simultaneous actions coordinate across jurisdictions. The coordination runs deeper. Federal employee networks across multiple agencies held Zoom training sessions in early 2025. Officials with verified government IDs discussed “non-cooperation as non-violent direct action,” the 3.5% rule for governmental collapse, and infrastructure sabotage through coordinated sick calls. They planned to make federal law enforcement impracticable. The exact language Section 332 requires. Sanctuary policies exist because cartel operations generate billions flowing through state systems. Governors sit on nonprofit boards receiving federal grants. Those nonprofits contract back to state agencies, cycling federal dollars through “charitable” organizations. Cartel cash launders through these same construction and real estate networks. When Trump's operations extract high-value targets, they disrupt the business model. The Machine defends itself through coordinated obstruction designed to make federal enforcement impracticable. This transcends immigration policy. This tests whether states can capture governance for criminal enterprises and nullify federal supremacy. THE LINCOLN PARALLEL Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation confounded supporters and critics alike. Abolitionists expected moral thunder. Instead they received dry legalese about “military necessity” and “war powers.” The document deliberately avoided the word “freedom.” It specified which states, parishes, counties. It exempted border states still in the Union. Constitutional historians recognize the genius. Lincoln wasn't making a moral proclamation. He was establishing irreversible legal predicate under war powers. Once issued, even Northern defeat couldn't fully restore slavery. The proclamation made restoration of the old order structurally impossible. Trump's April 28 order follows identical construction. Critics expected immigration rhetoric. Instead: technical language about “unlawful insurrection” and “federal supremacy.” Specified sanctuary jurisdictions, formal notification procedures, funding suspensions. Avoided inflammatory language. Constitutional attorneys recognize the structure. Irreversible legal predicate under insurrection powers. Even political defeat cannot fully restore sanctuary authority. States would have to prove they're not in systematic insurrection. Both presidents disguised constitutional warfare as administrative procedure. THE COMPLETE RECORD When you review the eight-month timeline you recognize what most ‘experts' miss. The April 28 EO satisfied every Section 334 requirement. It designated sanctuary conduct as insurrection. It provided formal notification. It established consequences. It granted eight months to comply. Compliance never arrived. California and New York passed laws shielding criminal networks. Illinois officials threatened to prosecute ICE agents. Multiple states coordinated legal defenses against federal authority. Courts blocked every standard enforcement attempt. They certified that ordinary measures have become impracticable. Every statutory requirement checks complete: Formal proclamation warning insurgents to disperse: April 28, 2025 Executive Order 14287 Extended opportunity to comply: Eight months from April to December 2025 Documented systematic multi-state obstruction: Sanctuary laws, prosecution threats, coordinated resistance Exhausted ordinary enforcement measures: Guard deployments blocked by federal courts Judicial certification of impracticability: Supreme Court ruling with Kavanaugh footnote The legal architecture stands finished. The predicate has been established. Only the final triggering event remains. Thomas Jefferson signed the Insurrection Act into law on March 3, 1807 . He understood executive authority: forge the instrument ahead of the storm, then await the conditions that justify its use. Abraham Lincoln used it to preserve the Union when eleven states organized systematic resistance. Ulysses S. Grant invoked it to shatter the Ku Klux Klan when Southern governments refused to protect Black citizens. Dwight Eisenhower deployed federal troops to enforce Brown v. Board when Arkansas chose defiance. Each invocation followed the same pattern. Local authorities refuse to enforce federal law. The president issues formal proclamation. Forces deploy when resistance continues. The current situation exceeds every historical precedent in scale and coordination. Multiple state governments coordinating systematic obstruction. Sanctuary jurisdictions spanning dozens of cities. Criminal enterprises funding the resistance through captured state institutions. The April proclamation gave them eight months to stand down. They chose escalation. THE COUNTDOWN The January 4 statement confirms what the legal timeline already established. Prerequisites met. Constitutional threshold crossed and judicially certified. The operational timeline is active. The next escalation triggers the formal dispersal order. Section 334 requires the president issue proclamation ordering insurgents to “disperse and retire peaceably to their abodes” before deploying military force. That's the legal tripwire. Once issued, if obstruction persists after the compliance window closes, federal troops can enforce federal law. Active duty forces under the Insurrection Act. Constitutional. Unreviewable. The forces won't conduct door-to-door immigration raids. They'll provide security perimeters while federal law enforcement executes targeted operations against high-value assets. Operatives. Trafficking nodes. Criminal infrastructure. Targeting oath-bound officials elected and appointed, as well as federal employees who swore to uphold federal law and chose insurrection instead. THE RESTORATION Sanctuary jurisdictions received explicit insurrection warnings last spring. More than half a year to comply. Every olive branch rejected. Courts blocked ordinary enforcement repeatedly, certifying impracticability. The Venezuela op demonstrated unilateral resolve. Yesterday's statement activated the operational sequence. Pattern recognized. Machine is exposed. Evidence is complete. What remains is execution. They're just waiting to hear it tick. The most powerful weapon restrains until every prerequisite aligns. Until mercy extends fully and meets systematic rejection. Until the constitutional framework demands its use. Every prerequisite has aligned. Mercy has been extended and rejected. The framework demands its use. Revolution destroys. Reversion restores. The Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves. The Insurrection Proclamation frees a republic.  https://twitter.com/EkoLovesYou/status/2008304655156342936?s=20 https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2008597603412308341?s=20 (function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:13499335648425062,size:[0, 0],id:"ld-7164-1323"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src="//cdn2.customads.co/_js/ajs.js";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,"script","ld-ajs");

The media like to present themselves as objective, balanced, and free from any bias or agenda. Reality suggests something quite different. The media function as weapons of mass distraction. Much of what passes as news is, sometimes subtle, sometimes crude, propaganda. The media are large conglomerates that serve to mobilize support for the special interests that dominate state and corporate power. In democratic societies, populations are not controlled by force. Rather, they are subject to more refined forms of ideological manipulation. Emotionally potent oversimplifications and necessary illusions are created and repeated endlessly. Embedded ideas, such as Washington's right to intervene anywhere in the world, go unexamined and unchallenged. Consent is manufactured. The public, reduced to being spectators, is marginalized.
