VOV1 - Chính phủ Thái Lan sẽ công bố chính thức sáng kiến Fast Pass nhằm tạo hành lang ưu tiên, xử lý nhanh các thủ tục phê duyệt và cấp phép cho những dự án đầu tư quy mô lớn trong các ngành trọng điểm.Cơ chế này được kỳ vọng sẽ góp phần tháo gỡ các điểm nghẽn về quy định pháp lý, giúp Thái Lan kích hoạt thêm hơn 10 tỷ USD vốn đầu tư trong thời gian tới.Phó Thủ tướng kiêm Bộ trưởng Tài chính Thái Lan Ekniti Nitithanprapas mới đây cho biết lễ công bố chính thức sáng kiến Fast Pass sẽ diễn ra vào ngày thứ ba tuần tới (23/6) tại Tòa nhà Chính phủ.Fast Pass được thiết kế nhằm đơn giản hóa quy trình phê duyệt và cấp phép thông qua sự tăng cường phối hợp giữa các cơ quan chức năng liên quan. Với cơ chế này, thời gian xử lý thủ tục đối với các dự án quy mô lớn trong những ngành trọng điểm có thể được rút ngắn từ 20% - 50%.Phó Thủ tướng Ekniti Nitithanprapas nhấn mạnh Fast Pass có ý nghĩa quan trọng trong củng cố niềm tin của nhà đầu tư, góp phần nâng cao năng lực cạnh tranh của Thái Lan trên trường quốc tế. Theo số liệu mới công bố bởi Viện Phát triển Quản lý Quốc tế (IMD), Thái Lan đã cải thiện thứ hạng từ vị trí 30 lên vị trí 24 trong bảng xếp hạng chỉ số đầu tư quốc tế.Trong cuộc họp vào tháng 5/2026, Ủy ban đầu tư Thái Lan (BOI) đã lựa chọn thêm 9 dự án đầu tư trọng điểm để đưa vào cơ chế Fast Pass. Đây là lô dự án thứ hai được đưa vào danh mục ưu tiên xử lý nhanh, sau 16 dự án đã được lựa chọn trước đó. Với động thái này, tổng số dự án thuộc diện được xem xét đẩy nhanh quy trình phê duyệt và cấp phép theo cơ chế Fast Pass đã tăng lên 25 dự án, với tổng vốn đầu tư hơn 220 tỷ baht (khoảng 6,8 tỷ USD). Giới chuyên gia nhận định, cơ chế Fast Pass có thể giúp Thái Lan kích hoạt thêm khoảng 350 tỷ baht đầu tư (tương đương hơn 10 tỷ USD) vào các ngành trọng điểm từ nay đến năm 2027./.Quốc Hùng/VOV Thái Lan Ảnh Phó Thủ tướng kiêm Bộ trưởng Tài chính Thái Lan Ekniti Nitithanprapas - Nguồn Cục Quan hệ Công chúng Thái Lan

Los videojuegos son como un espejo de cada generación. Hemos pasado de soplar cartuchos y pelear por el mando a montar escuadras online y echar más horas en Discord que durmiendo. Entre bromas, piques y alguna pulla bien colocada, Delia, Josedan y Primy repasan cómo cada generación ha vivido los videojuegos a su manera: los veteranos flipando con cuatro píxeles, los millennials enganchados a las LAN y la Generación Z pensando que si un juego no tiene pase de batalla, igual ni existe. Los videojuegos ya forman parte de la cultura popular, de la educación, de las amistades y, para muchos, de un buen puñado de recuerdos imposibles de olvidar.

Peter and Eden run through a rapid-fire list of pop culture hot takes covering movies, TV, music, books, and games. The Star Wars watch order debate kicks things off (original trilogy only for Peter, release order for Eden), Eden defends Batman & Robin and F-Boy Island as unironically great, both agree the Beatles are played out, and they end on a shared appreciation for Alpha Centauri as the peak of the Civilization franchise.Show NotesWhat Eden's Been IntoK-pop roundup: LE SSERAFIM's new album, aespa's Lemonade LP, and ITZY's Motto EP (featuring solo tracks from each member)Reading: The web novel Long Awaited Feelings (1,900 pages about a woman who time-travels after her death) and rereading How Do We Relationship? (completed 14-volume yuri romance manga — "the best romance comic I've ever read")Games: Finished PowerWash Simulator (excited for the Star Wars DLC), played Loddlenaut (cute 5-hour pixel-art ocean cleanup game), and the Wuthering Waves x Cyberpunk: Edgerunners crossover eventWhat Peter's Been IntoDiablo 4: Finished the Vessel of Hatred campaign as a Warlock ("killing demons by summoning your own demons is a good time")Reading: 82% through Anji Kills a King by Evan Leikam (BookTuber debut from Tor) — enjoying it but struggling with the prickly protagonistMusic: New Khemmis self-titled album (Denver doom metal), Cult of Luna's new single "In the Shadow of Your Shadow" (album out November), and The Ocean's "Light Pollution" from upcoming Solaris — allaying fears after the post-Holocene lineup changeHot Takes — MoviesStar Wars watch order: Peter says 4, 5, 6 + maybe Rogue One, skip everything else. Eden says release order (4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, Rogue One) to preserve cultural/historical contextEden defends Batman & Robin: "It's the second best Batman movie. George Clooney's a bad Batman, he's got nipples on the Batsuit, he's got the Bat credit card — it's great."Eden declares Saving Private Ryan a bad movie to the horror of everyone at the comic book shopBest Pixar: Eden picks Ratatouille (doesn't like most Pixar). Peter picks The IncrediblesCorrect max runtime: 90 minutes (Eden) vs 120 minutes (Peter) — anything longer needs to earn itSequel that's better: Peter says Captain America: Winter Soldier > First Avenger. Eden says Tokyo Drift is the best Fast & Furious movieCitizen Kane: Eden concedes it's the rare masterpiece that actually earns its reputation — a bunch of first-time filmmakers who didn't know the rulesHot Takes — TVShows that stayed too long: The Simpsons (Peter). Nearly every comedy past season 3 (Eden)Best series finale: M*A*S*H's "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen" and Babylon 5 (Eden). Brooklyn 99 (Peter)Worst series finale: Battlestar Galactica (new) — "the most incomprehensible finale you'll ever watch" (Eden). Seinfeld (Peter)Reality TV worth defending: F-Boy Island — 24 guys, half are "nice guys" and half are fuckboys, the women pick, and the fuckboys can steal the $100k at the end. Nice guys get a villa; fuckboys get a literal prison camp on the beachAdult animation vs prestige drama: Eden says Bob's Burgers is the only good adult animation show right now. Prestige TV is in a nadir of expensive Game of Thrones clonesHot Takes — MusicNever need to hear again: The entire Beatles discography (both agree)Best decade by genre: 80s for rock/pop, 90s for alt, aughts for indie, right now for K-pop (Eden). 2010s for metal — the genre found its stride again after a grim 90s (Peter)Bands that should have stopped: Dream Theater after Awake (Eden). Opeth's last 15 years are all misses (Eden). Peter agrees on bothGreatest live album: Rush — Exit...Stage Left (Peter). The Bang on a Can recording of Terry Riley's In C (Eden — "the finest version I've ever seen")Albums > playlists: Both firmly team albums. Eden has a 16-hour "K-pop Brain Rot" playlist for shuffling, but that's the exceptionHot Takes — BooksAudiobooks = reading? Leans yes from both, but acknowledges the research is contradictory (small sample sizes, brain scan studies on both sides)E-readers vs physical: Peter goes digital 9 times out of 10 (lighter, portable, side-lit). Eden does physical for comics, e-books for prose (form factor matters less for text, but hates reading comics on a screen)Hot Takes — GamesFavorite game of all time: Mass Effect 2 (Peter — tighter gameplay than ME1, loyalty missions, assembling the crew). Doom (1993) (Eden — infinitely replayable with new WADs every day, nothing feels as fluid)Best console generation: Xbox 360 / PS3 era (both) — Halo 3 LAN parties, Gears of War couch co-op, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Fallout 3/NV, Viva Piñata, and yes, Sneak KingOpen world vs linear: Both prefer a tight 20-hour experience over a 100-hour open worldFranchise that peaked early: Age of Empires II (Peter — nothing since comes close). And Eden's shitpost answer of the day: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri is better than every Civilization game that came...

La N-525 no es solo una carretera. Durante décadas fue una vía de salida, de regreso y de esperanza para miles de gallegos que dejaron atrás sus aldeas en busca de trabajo y futuro. En este episodio recorremos parte de su historia y de su memoria, viajando entre los viejos puertos de montaña de O Padornelo y A Canda, los autobuses imaginarios de la emigración y los recuerdos que aún permanecen adheridos al asfalto. Desde ahí nos adentramos en otro vestigio de aquella España rural: los grandes silos de grano que todavía dominan el horizonte de la Meseta. Para conocer su origen, utilidad y futuro conversamos con Emma Nogueiróu. También hablamos del proyecto impulsado por Bernardino Rosendo para crear un espacio permanente dedicado a la historia de los viajes en moto, un lugar donde conservar motos, documentos, fotografías y recuerdos de toda una generación de viajeros. En Madrid compartimos conversación con Protea, bióloga, mecánica, escaladora, espeleóloga y viajera incansable. Una vida extraordinaria que nos lleva por África, por la naturaleza y por algunas de las historias más sorprendentes de su trayectoria. Además, charlamos con Teresa, de Interfolio Libros, sobre literatura, viajes y la figura de Ted Simon. Completan el programa las próximas citas de Motorbeach Viajes, la Ruta Transcantábrica de Estoy de Ruta, el encuentro Biker Friendly de Vegadeo y, por supuesto, los comentarios de los oyentes. Un episodio sobre carreteras que aún conservan memoria, edificios que se niegan a desaparecer y personas que han vivido varias vidas en una sola.
VOV1 - Thái Lan đang bắt đầu thực thi quyết liệt chiến lược kép: áp dụng mức thuế tối thiểu toàn cầu 15% nhằm xóa bỏ “thiên đường thuế.Thái Lan đồng thời chuyển dịch mạnh mẽ từ ưu đãi miễn thuế thuần túy sang hỗ trợ doanh nghiệp thông qua các hình thức như tín dụng thuế hoặc trợ cấp trực tiếp, để giữ chân dòng vốn FDI.Bước đi này được kỳ vọng không chỉ giúp Thái Lan bảo vệ nguồn thu ngân sách dự kiến 10 tỷ Baht (tương đương khoảng 305 triệu USD) mỗi năm, mà còn khẳng định cam kết minh bạch hóa tài chính theo chuẩn quốc tế.Đây được đánh giá là cuộc cải cách bước ngoặt, định vị lại vị thế cạnh tranh của Thái Lan trong kỷ nguyên đầu tư mới.

Last 4 days before regular tickets sell out at AI Engineer World's Fair - this is the single biggest gathering of AI Engineers, Founders, Leaders, and Researchers in the world. Attendees get >$5000 worth of sponsor credits and talk tracks are looking FANTASTIC. Join us!The AI scaling debate always focuses on the question of “how do we get more GPUs?” but the better question may be: how do we make the most of ones we already have.The fact that a frontier lab like xAI could be running at sub-10% MFU (Model FLOPs Utilization) is just a hint at what the real problem may be.For context, older frontier-scale training runs were already much higher than 10%. GPT-3 was around 21% MFU. Gopher was around 32%. Megatron-Turing NLG was around 30%. PaLM reached around 46%. And our guest Anjney says best-in-class MFU today is closer to 60–70%.It's not necessarily that xAI is uniquely incompetent (it's clear they have talented folks) but rather the priorities may be flipped in the GPU arms race.While GPU access is a bottleneck, simply increasing CapEx won't automatically translate to better models as frontier AI is increasingly a systems problem: scheduling, utilization, networking, kernels, frameworks, data pipelines, parallelism, cluster reliability, and the thousand small decisions that determine whether your theoretical FLOPs become real training progress.From building Discord's developer platform and backing frontier AI companies like Anthropic, Mistral, Black Forest Labs, and Periodic Labs to now building AMP's independent compute grid, Anjney Midha has spent years close to the real bottlenecks of AI scaling. In this episode, Anjney joins swyx at Periodic Labs to unpack why the AI race is not just about buying more GPUs, why 95% utilization would have been considered an outage at Google, and why the next era of AI infrastructure has to be more aligned, more efficient, and more responsible.We go deep on AMP's vision for a compute grid that makes FLOPs flow like megawatts, the difference between full-stack AI labs and horizontal pooling, why AI data centers need community buy-in, and how compute markets could evolve into something closer to an independent system operator. Anjney also explains why DeepMind's unpublished research points to a market failure, why end-of-life prediction remains one of the most important AI applications he has thought about for fourteen years, and why “output maxing” may become a new discipline for frontier systems.We also discuss Anthropic's culture, why “luck favors the prepared mind” in coding models, how Claude cracked coding, why too much capital too early can make AI labs fragile, what Periodic Labs is trying to do with science and superconductors, why great researchers can become great CEOs, and why Silicon Valley is both deeply missionary and deeply mercenary.We discuss:* Why 95% utilization was considered an outage at Google* Why AI infrastructure waste compounds at frontier-lab scale* Why “move fast and break things” does not work for AI data centers* How data center backlash, power grids, and community incentives shape AI scaling* AMP's vision for making FLOPs flow like megawatts* Why compute needs an independent system operator* How interruptible demand and dynamic prioritization worked inside Google* Why DeepMind research hoarding creates negative externalities* AMP's 1.2GW base-load ambition and the need for 6GW of spike capacity* Why end-of-life prediction could become one of AI's most important healthcare applications* Frontier Systems, output maxing, and full-stack alignment* Why APIs and abstraction layers become lossy as organizations scale* Superconductors, standards, and the dream of lossless systems* SF Compute, open protocols, and the future of compute marketplaces* Why non-NVIDIA chips can still benefit from NVIDIA's reference architecture* Trust boundaries and why chip startups need visibility into future model architectures* Why VCs often underestimate researchers as CEOs* Scientists as star athletes of the mind* Why great CEOs need to be confrontational up and down the stack* Why leading the frontier matters more than “winning”* How Anthropic cracked coding* Why culture is fragile, not a permanent moat* Why hardship was a feature, not a bug, for Anthropic* Why Anthropic's P0 was coding from day one* Periodic Labs, physics as the constraint, and technical reality* Silicon Valley mercenaries, missionary teams, and what happens after a breakthroughAnjney Midha* LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anjney* X: https://x.com/AnjneyMidhaAMP PBC* Website: https://amppublic.com/* X: https://x.com/amppublicTimestamps00:00:00 Introduction00:00:09 Why AI Compute Is Being Wasted00:03:17 Responsible Infrastructure and Data Center Backlash00:06:07 AMP Grid: Making FLOPs Flow Like Megawatts00:12:41 Foundry, Frontier Labs, and Research Hoarding00:14:42 Gigawatt-Scale Compute and End-of-Life Prediction00:24:08 Frontier Systems, Output Maxing, and Alignment00:27:38 Compute Markets, SF Compute, and Non-NVIDIA Chips00:32:57 Trust Boundaries, Co-Design, and Researcher CEOs00:38:17 AI Coachella and First-Principles Thinking00:42:43 Leading vs Winning in Frontier AI00:45:54 How Anthropic Cracked Coding00:48:25 Culture, Hardship, and Anthropic's P000:54:03 Periodic Labs, Physics, and Silicon Valley Mercenaries00:56:26 Rishi Valley, Singapore, and Money as a Measure00:58:47 Closing ThoughtsTranscriptIntroduction: Anjney Midha, AMP, and Compute WasteSwyx [00:00:00]: We're in Periodic Labs with Anjney Midha, CEO, founder of AMP. Welcome.Compute Utilization: Node Allocation, MFU, and AlignmentAnjney [00:00:09]: Thanks for having me. At Google, there are two types of utilization usually, right? That you're measuring in these clusters. One is node allocation, and then the other's MFU. Node utilization is usually like what percentage of cards in the data center are just, used, and that, if it's not at, 95%-Swyx [00:00:29]: There is no excuseAnjney [00:00:29]: There's no excuse, right? I think 95% at Google, which is where my co-founder, Seb, came from, he built the Borg, PBorg/GQM scheduler at Google, and there I think 95% was considered an outage, so 96% node utilization is, should be standard. And most single-tenant clusters are not running at that. So that's one. And then MFU should be, I would say the best in class today is somewhere between 60 and 70%. I think this is a leadership question, right? Fundamentally it's an alignment question, which is are the people who are funding the cluster and then deploying the cluster actually aligned? And sometimes theoretically they are, but in practice the number of people in the chain, the supply chain between, the capital and all the way to whoever's managing the cluster and then whoever's measuring what the output is, are just so many, degrees of separation away that, the, The Have you ever heard the radian metaphor, which is at the beginning of an arc, if you have two arcs that are two lines that are just off by a few degrees, that-Swyx [00:01:33]: It spreads outAnjney [00:01:34]: It spreads out, right? Or at scale. And I think what's happening is a lot of cluster implementations and infrastructure, a lot of frontier labs and other teams, that's what's happening, is they're, they initialize the plan, which is kind of like North Star with a team that wants to do good, but then they're, required to scale so fast instead of iteratively that the wastage just compounds really fast at scale. And so I think we know the answer, which is just do iterative bring ups. If you spend time with people who've been in the semiconductor industry or the DSN industry for a long time, this is not new, and I don't think AI should be an excuse. Sure. Something What is new? Okay. We have a lot of new capabilities, but that doesn't mean just abandon common sense. Common sense should always be in fashion. ? AI scaling doesn't change the in fact, if anything, AI scaling should be putting a premium on the value of common sense and infrastructure because the margin of error now is so much lower and the costs of wastage are so much higher. And the cost of wastage, by the way, is not just economic. I'm, obviously I'm, I'm an investor, or I'm an investor by background. Over the last few years now we're running an AI infrastructure business called, AMP. And I think that it's okay to say this time is different on the capabilities front. We are genuinely getting capabilities at, of the, of a kind we haven't had before. That doesn't give you an excuse to say this time is different for everything, especially infrastructure. So look, I love the hacker mindset and the hustler mindset. Now, that's great for the startup mindset, but you remember this moment where Zuck went from saying, “Move fast, break things” to, move-Responsible Infrastructure and Data Center BacklashSwyx [00:03:10]: Fast and stable infrastructureAnjney [00:03:11]: Move fast with stable infrastructure. I think now we need to move fast with, responsible infrastructure. People are going to ask where the impact is. There was a really In our class yesterday, Scott Nolan, who's the founder of General Matter, came by at Stanford to speak about energy bottlenecks. And he had a phenomenal idea. He said, “if you look at the marginal unit economics of compute per hour,” he goes, “let's call it, $4 an hour. If you're having to bring up a new data center in a new community, why not just say we're going to charge 4.50 an hour, and that marginal impact or that marginal increase, we just literally take that and give it to the local community as cash?” I can tell you as a customer of that compute, I would love that. I'd be happy to pay an additional 50 cents per hour at scale.Swyx [00:03:57]: Wow. Yeah.Anjney [00:03:58]: Because if that means the public benefit is so clear to the communities that the data centers are coming up in, I'm going to feel like that compute is much more reliable. Up to 20% of all data centers this year in the US, my understanding is are at risk.Swyx [00:04:13]: Of community backlash?Anjney [00:04:14]: Correct. Of not getting the community support they need to get brought up.Swyx [00:04:19]: Wow. That's a huge number.Anjney [00:04:20]: Yeah. Now, we, I think we should dig into what that number is. I think it's a little bit of overstated. These things can get over-reported, but it-Swyx [00:04:27]: They don't just care about jobs. They care about all the other stuff around it, right? They care about power grid, they care about environments-Anjney [00:04:33]: Power grid, permitting, and so on. And imagine I think if you said there's a new AI deal. If we're bringing up a data center in your community, we're actually going to reduce the cost of your electricity bill. Okay, now we're talking. Right? The community's going, “Okay. Now this is a deal. I feel like a partner in this.” Right now that's not happening. There will be audits, there will be investigations, and when the, when the regulators come, I don't know when it's going to be, the folks who are moving fast and breaking things in the name of AI progress better be prepared. That's certainly not how we're procuring compute. Or we're, we're trying as much as we can to work with partners who have long-term track records. Many of whom, by the way, are not, AI providers. I think this whole idea of neoclouds being somehow this new category is a lot of marketing speak. There are really good, reliable, trusted data center providers in America who've been around 20 plus years. I love those folks. They know how to Sure. Are they sponsoring happy hours at NeurIPS? No. Are they legibly listed in Build? No. Are they hanging out in my, in, situational awareness parties? No. But they're adults. I trust them.Swyx [00:05:44]: They can run LAN. They can run power.Anjney [00:05:45]: They can run LAN, power, and shell. They have credit histories. We sit down, we have a conversations. Many of them live in Silicon Valley. They've, they've had to deal with the boom and bust cycles of the internet, and I love those folks. They are stable infrastructure partners and thinkers. And I think there's a lot of short-term thinking going on in the compute layer, and it's going to catch up to us. It's not going to be good.AMP Grid: Making FLOPs Flow Like MegawattsSwyx [00:06:07]: You talk about aligning incentives, and, I would think that aligning incentives means you have the full stack in one company, which is xAI and OpenAI, right? So you as a standalone infrastructure layer, why are you somehow more aligned to your portfolio companies than people who just own the whole thing?Anjney [00:06:28]: In systems design, right, there's, there's two regimes of, architecture, right? You have integration, and then you have pooling and utilization, right? So the Or rather, the way to increase utilization often is you can do systems integration where you collapse a lot of process into one node, or you can pull out a process from a node and share that amongst various That resource amongst several different nodes. And so we see the AMP grid, which is, the, what, the system we're building here, which is basically a compute grid. We're trying to do for compute what the electric grid-Swyx [00:07:02]: PowerAnjney [00:07:02]: Yeah, what the power grid did for electricity. It-- this is a pooling and utilization layer across clouds, And so we're actually the opposite of a full stack integration like approach.Swyx [00:07:12]: Super horizontal.Anjney [00:07:13]: Where it's much more horizontal and it's, it's multi-cloud, it's multi-silicon. The goal is to try to make FLOPs flow like megawatts, and that is very hard to do today for many reasons. There's stranded pools of compute all over the place and there's no fungibility. And so right now we do it at the level of scheduling, and we often do it at the economic layer. But as we start to announce what we're working on, it's extraordinary like how many folks are coming out of the woodworks and saying, “Hey, I'm actually working on a way to make compute fungible at this part of the stack and that part of the stack.” And as a grid, we'd like all of these folks to participate on the grid. There's, people often ask me, “Andra, are you a new cloud?” And I go, “No, actually neoclouds are suppliers.” sometimes they'll ask, “Are you a venture capital firm?” I go, “No, actually they are, they are demand like sort of off-takers of the grid.” We see ourselves as what's called an independent system operator. So if you study the history of the electric grid, once it became legible to a lot of factories and industrial sort of participants that, hey, actually it turns out pooling is a good idea. We should pool our generators instead of all having a generator running at half capacity in our backyard. There was a need for an independent entity who could coordinate all these parties. Transmission line, power generation, facilities, transmission lines, factories, and that neutral coordination mechanism is very critical. In order-- If you study like the history of grids, the most enduring ones were those that never owned their own assets. They were ones that had, or often started with long-term anchors who are uncorrelated sources of demand, a steel factory, a shoe mill or whatever in a particular town who weren't competitive, where the steel factory want to spike up at night, the shoe mill wanted to spike up during the day. So then you pool and you share, right? So each of you is guaranteed some base load, but then you kind of schedule your spikes to drive a peak utilization across the town. The gold standard, so to speak, historically, has been these utility companies like PJM Interconnect in the northeast of America, where they, over many years became this what's called an ISO, an independent system operator of the grid. So that's how we see ourselves. Economically, that's what we are. From a technical perspective, we started at the scheduling layer because Seb and Mihai, who, run engineering here, built that at-Swyx [00:09:28]: Did your schedulingAnjney [00:09:28]: They did that at Google. And, -Swyx [00:09:32]: And you have infra shops from Discord as well.Anjney [00:09:35]: I have some.Swyx [00:09:35]: I don't know, I don't know if Discord is like the primary identity, but what-whatever, I'm just kind of-Anjney [00:09:39]: No, D-Discord was-Swyx [00:09:40]: Choosing a well-known name.Anjney [00:09:42]: Well, I So I was running the developer platform there. The internal infrastructure I was not responsible for. That was actually a guy by the name of Mark Smith, who was extraordinary. And yes, Discord did pool So Discord is actually a counter example. I had the chance to learn a lot about fully, full stack infra there because-Swyx [00:09:56]: It's the same thing, yeahAnjney [00:09:57]: It's the, it's the other architecture which is, Discord built its own WebRTC vo-voice and video infra. So like Discord did not use-Swyx [00:10:08]: For the calls, yeah.Anjney [00:10:09]: Yeah, did not For communication, Discord did not use third party infra. It was all built in-house. And then the way you maximize utilization was you pool demand from the world's 200 million plus monthly active gamers, right? And so that's, that's how those stacks were constructed. Again, in systems design, the two concepts that keep coming up over and over again are abstraction and composition, right? And-Swyx [00:10:31]: Bundling and unbundlingAnjney [00:10:33]: Bundling and unbundling, abstraction, composition, like verticalization and-Swyx [00:10:36]: HorizontalAnjney [00:10:36]: Horizontalization. So in that sense, AMP is an independent system operator of the grid. We pool demand, we pool supply from a number of partners we trust At about 1.3 gigawatt scale over four years. And then we pool demand from some of the world's best, research labs and so on. We're sitting at one, periodic labs who need extraordinary long-term demand. And the idea is that, each of them is guaranteed base load on the grid, but they can spike up and down flexibly on, for compute, with much shorter timelines as needed. That was roughly the design of the program I came up with at a16z called Oxygen. The same-- That was the same design of the GQM, BorgX, Borg GQM implementation at Google that Mihai and Seb had built. Which was that how do you allow, teams inside of Google, on the internal infrastructure to be guaranteed capacity, for their base workloads? But when they need to spike up on research, how could they ensure that was sufficiently there? And of course, the big innovation that was not discovered, but kind of implemented in the space, this infra space maybe three, four years ago at Google was the idea of interruptible demand, right? Where you just queue up a bunch of jobs and through this like sort of credit system, there can be a bidding mechanism.Swyx [00:11:53]: Like priorities.Anjney [00:11:54]: It's a dynamic prioritization Basically. And jobs can get interrupted based on somebody else who's saying, “what? I have 10 tokens, 10 credits I want to spend on this job.” Another like team lead, research lead is “Genie 3 or whatever is only worth five, credits, and NanoBanana2 is worth 10 credits,” and so the NanoBanana job gets priority. That's a, that's a made up example.Swyx [00:12:15]: It's very real. Brain Marketplace was real. And, we've, we've covered this on the pod with David Luan, who was-Anjney [00:12:20]: Oh, great. OkaySwyx [00:12:20]: Was there. And the criticism is that, well, actually sometimes you need central command to go all in on a thing. And actually sometimes capitalism via credits doesn't work. Not, this is not a criticism of AMP. I'm just saying, this is a thing that has been tried, internally within Google, and it led to Google missing GPT.Foundry, Frontier Labs, and Research HoardingAnjney [00:12:41]: Like, we structured ourself essentially very similarly to Google. We are structured as a holdings company. So, Alphabet holdings is Alphabet holdings, and then they've got these subsidiaries called Google and-Swyx [00:12:51]: Other betsAnjney [00:12:52]: Other bets and so on. We've got, AMP holdings, and we've got our infrastructure business, and then we've got a capital business called Foundry that incubates new frontier AI labs or invests in them as venture capital, like Periodic. We put a few hundred million dollars into Anthropic from our fund earlier this year. So wherever we feel like teams are making progress, especially researchers and so on who've pushed the frontier inside of existing labs like DeepMind, I find, there comes a point where they feel misaligned with the dictatorship of Alphabet holdings. And at that point, sometimes the dictatorship doesn't want them anymore. And they're “Thank you. You've done your job here. You've kind of helped us through the zero to one phase, and for whatever reason, we're going to deprioritize your amazing, omni model or whatever it is, and instead we're going to prioritize coding.” And, I think that's a tragedy, but I get it. They're Sergey and team are running their own business there. But that doesn't mean we the rest of us should sit around waiting for that progress to get unlocked for the rest of the world and humanity. If you think about how much extraordinary research has happened inside of DeepMind over the last 10 years, I, Demis and Sergey and those guys did such a great job. But at the end of the day, so much of that has never seen the light of day?Swyx [00:14:00]: Or they're like papers only, but they never actually shipped it to production or-Anjney [00:14:03]: What's worse is the paper is actually not even being published anymore ‘cause there's a six-month embargo inside of DeepMind, right? We've heard about this where a paper comes out, and then I think there's a six-month embargo window where if anybody on the business team says, “This could be interesting” It's embargoed for life.Swyx [00:14:18]: Exactly. So the stuff that gets published is the stuff that's not good enough.Anjney [00:14:21]: There's an adverse selection problem, basically. Yeah. At this point-Swyx [00:14:25]: It's, it's a common complaint at NeurIPS, by the way, that's “Well, why would I look at the papers that are the trash of GDM?”Anjney [00:14:31]: Again, I think it's a tragedy. I get it. They're running their business, but the rest of the I think there's negative externalities of research being hoarded, and so that'there's a market failure. And somebody needs to unlock that research, and we can't do it on our own. We only have 1.2 gigawatts of compute. That's nothing. That's about $40 billion of cloud spend. We're going to need a lot-Gigawatt-Scale Compute and End-of-Life PredictionSwyx [00:14:51]: By the way, is that's a new number. I haven't, haven't come across that gigawatt number. That's huge.Anjney [00:14:56]: Yeah. And to be clear, we haven't secured all of it. That's how much demand we have started to secure. I think publicly we haven't actually confirmed how much we have for this year. In order-Swyx [00:15:04]: Where do you want to get to?Anjney [00:15:06]: I think the steady state would be that we have a base load pool Of 1.2 gigawatts at all times Of base load capacity. For spike capacity, right now my estimate is we need roughly six gigawatts over the next four years for all our teams to feel like they were able to keep moving the frontier, whatever they're working on, whether it's, like superconductor discovery over here. There's a new investment we're working on right now, which is in the end of life prediction space in healthcare. It's extraordinary how much you can, you can give this was actually my graduate school work. I went to grad school for bioinformatics at Stanford Med. And I know we-Swyx [00:15:40]: Econ, MCS, bio.Anjney [00:15:41]: So my-- I was this really weird cat where, I was never satisfied with my major options. So at one point I was an econ major, then I was a CS major, then I was a MCS major called mathematical computational science, and they decided they were going to end that major. So I took all that coursework, and I applied it to grad school, my graduate degree in bioinformatics, which was the master's program, and then I thought I was going to do a PhD. I never ended up doing it. I dropped out and went to work at Kleiner. But I was lucky enough to apprentice with this professor at, Stanford Med. His name is Nigam Shah, and he was working on end of life prediction. Stanford is one of the only research facilities in America that has a longitudinal patient data set that's larger at scale. I think it's at least 12 million patient lives. The only larger data set is at the VA, the Veterans Affairs, of America. And to do research, like do any deep learning and so on that data set, it was called the STRIDE data set at that time, you had to be a Stanford Med School affiliate, which is why I went and enrolled in the bioinformatics department. End of deep learning was early. Nigam Shah had the visibility-- the vision to see that, you could do end of life prediction to help palliative care. In America, the, over 30% of all Medicare, Medicaid spend, at least at that time, was spent on end of life care. And what's we grew up in Asia, so we all-- Yeah, at least I won't speak for you, but I have A very different relationship with death than I find folks who grew up in America do. In America, spiritually and culturally, especially in Western societies where Christianity, the Christian tradition sort of frames death as this terminal point, there's often a judgment day and so on. The way we view death is with a finality. In Indian culture, in Hindu culture, death is one-Swyx [00:17:35]: Also, he's Buddhist as well.Anjney [00:17:36]: You're Buddhist, yeah. So it's one, it's one step in a journey of many lives, right? And so, I grew up in this city called Chennai in the south of India, and when people die, you dance on the street. There's like a procession where your body is carried to be cremated and your family, like celebrates and there's drums and so on. It's this huge thing. And, It's because the idea is that you're going to be reincarnated. You've been liberated from the responsibilities of this life, and now you're onto your next. It's a new It's like going off to a new college or whatever, right? And so it was so alien to me when I got here as an undergrad- That the medical system works backwards from that assumption that we have to view death as this terminal thing and delay it, postpone it's a bad thing. And so at the time, clinical decision support in the United States was this very primitive field. Even to this day, physicians in the United States often will tell you when you have a terminal disease, this is your, we've diagnosed you, which is great. Our ability to diagnose you is extraordinary. You have somewhere between six months to six years to live. What do you do with that information? The error bars are so high that then you In times of uncertainty, we default to culture, and when the culture is let's-- this is a bad thing, I've got to prolong my life, then you start doing things like And just to, just sort of from a systems perspective, what's going on there is Physicians often feel like they need to provide such high error bars because there's always some uncertainty in end of life diagnosis, and if you provide the wrong Diagnosis or recommendation to your patient, you can be sued for medical malpractice. And then your license can be taken away. It can be catastrophic for your career. In contrast, if in countries where that's not the case, what you often observe is that patients, physicians are quite prescriptive with their recommendation. They say, “Hey, this is your condition. The literature says that you probably have this much time on Earth left. My expert opinion is that you are an outlier or whatever.” And they try to be more prescriptive, and that empowers a patient, right? ‘Cause then a patient can say, “I trust my doctor. They said on average, I have six months to live, but if I do these things, I may have a shot because of my particular predispositions or my genetic history or whatever.” And that empowers you to go about your life in a actually more scientific way than leaning on religion, culture, spirituality, and so on. In contrast, here, because of that medical malpractice sort of thing looming over your head, a physician never gives you a clear recommendation. So instead you say, “Okay, Doc, well, let's try it all.” And then you start a whole regime of drugs and therapies, and then you often spend weeks and weeks in the hospital, and that deteriorates your quality of life. And when that deteriorates your quality of life, you instead of spending your last few days doing the things you love with your family, you're spending it on a hospital bed. And that ends up being thirty percent of Medicare and Medicaid. So it's worse for the patients. The doctors feel terrible. The American taxpayer is paying a huge amount of money. And so this is why Nigam Shah, who was this professor at Stanford, said, “Anjney, if there's “ I kind of sat down with him. I was this young, I'd, I was twenty-one, and I was “I want to work on a big problem.” He's “The big problem is end of life care.” And so we tried to do deep learning to say, to-- So we started trying to run deep learning on these tried patient data sets to say, “Could you have an AI system make a recommendation that is orders of magnitude more precise about how much time you have left once you've been diagnosed with a terminal condition than a human?” And then if we can get that precision to be high enough, then you can empower the patient. And it turns out the tech works. Like it's-- Once you get the data set, like RL works. Honestly, even regression models work. You don't need to get that fancy. At the time, we were just trying, doing like very simple neural nets.Swyx [00:21:54]: Simple solutions, yeah.Anjney [00:21:54]: Today, what we can do with RL is extraordinary. The problem remains then and now is regulatory, because you actually can't shift the burden of the wrong clinical diagnoses from the physician to the AI system. And so at that time, I got quite disillusioned ten years ago for, twelve years ago where, ‘cause I felt I just didn't have the resources to influence regulation. Today, I'm very lucky. I'm in a different place. I've, I'm a lot older, and so I've been spending a lot of time on my next incubation, which is how can we unlock the, patient empowerment by training AI models to do end of life prediction much, with much more precision and ac-Swyx [00:22:37]: Oh, wow. You're still focused on this the whole time.Anjney [00:22:40]: The-- I haven't been able to get, this out of my mind a single day for the last fourteen years. This is the hill I want, I would like to die on. There's two, I would say. What? I actually, I'd prefer not to die.Swyx [00:22:51]: Yeah, exactly.Anjney [00:22:52]: But I think two bipartisan issues, I think two issues that should be bipartisan in America are how do we empower patients to make the right clinical decisions at the end of their life, such that we're reducing the taxpayer burden with science? It's just good old science, and AI can help here. And the second is, net positive data centers, ‘cause I think that's the biggest critical bottleneck on training and good enough AI models to help people at the end of their life. So there's sort of two sides of the, of the same scaling bottleneck curve, but those two, we formed AMP as a public benefit corporation. My wife and I, who you've met, you've met Viv. Her passion is education. Her family is a long line of educators and so on, and, of physicists. And so this class is my attempt to stop being the black sheep of the family and be a, an educator. But if I'm not educating, the thing I would be doing is working, on these two problems, whether on the political spectrum or as a researcher back at, in some lab. And my hope is if anyone's listening to this podcast, if they're passionate about either of those two topics, I'd love to hear from them. We'll, we'll we can share the contact in the show notes, but, we're looking for people to join both of those missions on the, on the political side as well as on the medical side, on the research side.Frontier Systems, Output Maxing, and AlignmentSwyx [00:24:08]: You said, this is a discipline that you want to form. You call it's called variously called Frontier System. It's variously called One Person Frontier Lab. What is the ideal name or shape of this? Like the, what is the mission?Anjney [00:24:24]: Of the class?Swyx [00:24:26]: Of the discipline that you're, exploring, right? I The class is called Frontier Systems. But like for me, maybe one phrase is you're, you're just anti-waste, right? Which is wasting GPUs, wasting in human and Medicare. But is there, is there a broader theme that I'm, that maybe you can encapsulate more succinctly?Anjney [00:24:45]: Yeah. The, from an engineering perspective, it's very simple. It's output maxing. It's the, it's the department of output maxing.Swyx [00:24:51]: Making the most of what we have.Anjney [00:24:52]: Exactly. I'm a huge believer in optimal outcomes. I think both in America and other countries, we are losing our appreciation for nuance, and this is the thing of And AI is the same case, right? Oh, the bitter lesson holds. Okay, fine. But that doesn't mean you just like throw 500 GB300, 500,000 GB300s at your suboptimal model scaling and you waste a bunch of compute. It also doesn't mean that, the most optimal is to have like 50 different architectures where there isn't enough standardization. One of the reasons Anthropic has had extraordinary sort of velocity is ‘cause they picked the transform architecture and said, “This is simple. Let's double down on it,” right? And now luckily there's enough investment going to the space that we can afford other architectures, but at the time, investment was just too fragmented into other architectures, so that arguably unlocked scaling. So I think there's a philosophy. I think we all owe it to ourselves to do output maxing with a new capability called AI on a global level. I think if I was starting a new department at Stanford, depending on how fuzzy or technical I wanted to be, I'd probably call it the Department of Alignment. Like-Swyx [00:25:59]: It's an overloaded termAnjney [00:26:01]: But it is, But alignment really Is a hard problem. And I think when you unlock it, full stack alignment is super hard in any organization and in any system. Like in a, in a venture capital firm, if you can have full stack alignment between your limited partners and your, the founders who are creating the value and ultimately the public that owns the IPO stock, that is a gift that keeps giving. And when you study the history of these systems, when they start off, they usually start out small scale where the feedback loop is actually so tight that there's alignment. And then the more you try to scale, the more division of labor happens, the more specialization happens, and at each step you add abstractions. And wherever there's an API interface, there's like loss. There's communication loss. And so I think a really cool thing would be for us to figure out is there a way for us to have our cake and eat it too as an engineering discipline? Is there a way to actually scale up and scale out Without losing any alignment, without lossy transmission?Swyx [00:27:01]: You mean standards?Anjney [00:27:02]: So standards is one way. The other way is you just have net new capabilities. So like what we're trying to do here is discover new superconductors. A room temperature superconductor would be a lossless transmission mechanism for energy. We would have flying cars. We are right within a few years of having a new room temperature superconductor. So I think those are the two. You either have to standardize On protocols or API specs that allow lossless communication, or you can come up with a whole new capability that unlocks so much abundance, the standardization doesn't matter ‘cause you just unlock net new capacity. This, the, so this is what I spend my days thinking about these days.Compute Markets, SF Compute, and Non-NVIDIA ChipsSwyx [00:27:38]: No, I think every infra person at, who wants scale and wants to output max does eventually end up thinking about this. We don't have time to go into it, but we have done an episode with SF Compute-Anjney [00:27:50]: Oh, coolSwyx [00:27:50]: That is trying to standardize The futures contract for compute. I don't, I don't know how that's going by the way, but like at some point this will be public.Anjney [00:27:57]: Oh, I think Evan is awesome and SF Compute is the kind of effort that I hope we can accelerate because what often happens is these exchanges are very hard to get, they, it's hard to bootstrap them, right? Because they often require-- There's many inefficiencies between parties. There's trust boundary inefficiencies in infrastructure because you don't trust, one part of the stack doesn't trust another part of the stack to give them visibility. There's capital markets inefficiencies, there's operational efficiencies. So if you can inject like a single shock to the system of a ton of compute demand or supply, then you can accelerate, these new flywheels. And so my hope is one day, or soon, if SF Compute needs extra like has excess capacity, they just hook it up to the grid and they get flooded with demand from us. And on the other side, if they have a ton of demand but they don't have supply, they just again hook up to the grid and it's a two-way protocol where they can just hook up to our capacity. And I don't think we're too far from that. Today our working implementation of it is mostly through a group of labs, universities, and a few sort of trusted parties who are, who all feel like they're in alignment to borrow an over sort of used word. But our hope is to just have it be an open protocol that anyone can hook up to on-Swyx [00:29:20]: Hook up for demand or hook up for supply? In primarily demand, it sounds like. Like you-Anjney [00:29:25]: No, bothSwyx [00:29:26]: You would want to offer demand.Anjney [00:29:27]: Both. Yeah. Unfortunately, what's happened in the last six weeks is, we thought we'd have a bunch of excess capacity by the end of this year. It's all gone.Swyx [00:29:37]: It's exploding.Anjney [00:29:38]: It, yeah. It's all gone. And so I have, my text messages are full of friends, we know many of these people, these are founders who've raised billions of dollars in San Francisco going, “Oh, any chance you have like 50 nodes in the next few weeks?”Swyx [00:29:51]: What is the scope for, non-Nvidia, right? You have Lisa Su coming and, Rainer Pope as well. And so There is a lot of demand for, more performance Alternative architectures and all that. At the same time, this hurts your standardization.Anjney [00:30:11]: I don't think so. So actually Rainer's a great example, right? Rainer is a CEO and founder of, MatX. I actually had him by for office hours in the class earlier today, and there was an insight he brought up that I hadn't considered before, which is when they decided to pick the standard For their data center, they picked the NVIDIA reference architecture. So the MatX chips Just plug in to any site that has an NVIDIA bring up planned. And, the-Swyx [00:30:42]: It's just software then. It's, it's not the-Anjney [00:30:44]: A-Swyx [00:30:44]: Hardware.Anjney [00:30:46]: Well, from an input and IO perspective It's the same footprint as an NVIDIA rack.Swyx [00:30:52]: That makes sense.Anjney [00:30:53]: Where they have done, innovated a bunch from what I can tell is on systems co-design. Which is where a lot of the gains are to be had. And so he picked He was “Anjney, we, there's just so much work to do when you're building a new chip company.”Swyx [00:31:08]: Can't fight every front.Anjney [00:31:08]: You just can't fight on every front. So my question to him was, “Well, you're working on this new chip. Their tape-out is next year. What, who are you going to partner with to host the chips?” And he said, “Whoever will host them. That's just not, that's not my focus.” And I said, “But how did you “ you decided back to our earlier systems design question, he decided that, he didn't want to be a full, fully integrated chip provider. The bottleneck they're focused on is the logic die, and they, he feels they can crank out a ton of performance gains through co-design there. But then that means you delegate, to our question earlier, it, you he's the data center provider is a different part of the stack, and so then he's dependent on that part of the ecosystem to host his chips to get the performance gains to the customer. So now you have another abstraction, and you might have loss. So I asked him, “How do you prevent loss?” And back to your point, he said, “I just picked the NVIDIA standard ‘cause I didn't want to Like I wanted to piggyback off of an existing protocol.” And that, what's great about NVIDIA is that reference architecture is known.Swyx [00:32:15]: Open.Anjney [00:32:15]: It's open. They've published it. So Jensen's actually enabled someone like Rainer to build a chip company like MatX, and I don't see them as competitive. The compute demand is so high. Like, I don't I think NVIDIA's not able to meet the demands of production, so we just need more chips. And I think it's very smart what MatX has done, which is say, “We're just going to we're not going to innovate on the data center design ‘cause actually, thank you, Jensen, you've done all the hard work. Where we can innovate is somewhere else.” And I think that's, that's very healthy. I think that's how we unblock new bottlenecks. And my view is these, the, chip teams like MatX, who have arrived at the insight that co-design is the way, The primary bottleneck for them is trust boundary. To do co-design well, you need visibility into the next model generation as soon as possible ‘cause it takes two years to tape out. So if by the time I bring my chip to market, your model architecture's changed, I'm host. Now, when he was inside Google, he was sitting next to the Gemini team. He was on Palm or whatever.Trust Boundaries, Co-Design, and Researcher CEOsSwyx [00:33:19]: His co-founder was the, was one, was one of the Palm guys, I think.Anjney [00:33:23]: Yes. Yes, exactly. So when you're inside the trust boundary of Google, then your systems co-design loop is super tight. When you leave as a founder, one of the biggest risks you take is now you're outside the trust boundary. And so what I love doing is helping chip teams who can help us unlock more capacity for the independent ecosystem access to trust. Because when I If I've been, involved with a lab from day one, and I was lucky enough to work with Anthropic, and then I'm on the board of Mistral and helped Black Forest Labs get started. I think at this point I'm on six or seven different teams.Swyx [00:33:57]: Only six? I feel like my mental number was going to be 13, but yeah, it's-Anjney [00:34:02]: No, I go deep with one at a time.Swyx [00:34:04]: You're founding CEO of Arena.Anjney [00:34:07]: Nah, that was an, that was an-Swyx [00:34:08]: Administrative CEOAnjney [00:34:09]: It was an administrative five-month gig where Whalen and Anastasios were graduating from their PhDs, and they didn't need a product team. So I helped recruit the head of engineering product and design. But Anastasios has always been the CEO of that company. I played a pinch-hitting I'm an intern. I was CEO intern For five months. -Swyx [00:34:33]: I interviewed him, and he's he's very well-spoken. I think he's a debate, former debate, champion. But also very quantitative and mathematical, which is-Anjney [00:34:41]: He-Swyx [00:34:41]: Such a unicorn.Anjney [00:34:43]: See, what's amazing about him? If you look at his output, he's an output maxer. By the time he was graduating from his PhD, which he only graduated last year, he had published more work with a citation count than, people twice his age. But at the same time, he'd already started a project called LLM Arena that was being used by millions of people As a side project. And time and time again, what I've realized is venture capitalists suck at seeing human beings as, dynamic agents where-Swyx [00:35:14]: They want to put you in a boxAnjney [00:35:15]: They want to put you in a box.Swyx [00:35:15]: This is your thing.Anjney [00:35:16]: So the first time I got introduced to Anastasios, somebody had told me “Oh, he's amazing, but he's a researcher.” I was “what? What do you mean he's a researcher?” That's what-Swyx [00:35:28]: Like he's not a CEO, not a founder.Anjney [00:35:29]: Not a CEO, exactly. I was “Are you crazy? Do you Have you met Dario?” Dario's a scientist. He's gone from zero to, what will soon be a trillion-dollar company in four years. Being a CEO, nominally speaking, is not that hard. Being a good CEO is hard. Being a great CEO actually requires a level of performance that scientists who have already published at the top of their field have accomplished. It is super hard to be a competitive scientist. To publish in academia over the last 20, 30 years, to make it to the top of your discipline at a place like Berkeley, you are a star athlete. Like, you are an athlete of the mind, and you perform at the highest levels. And to get there, whether you're, Anastasios or Whalen at Berkeley, or you are Robin, who-Swyx [00:36:23]: BFL, yeahAnjney [00:36:24]: With Black Forest, who created Stable Diffusion, or if you're, like Guillaume at Meta, who created Llama before he started Mistral. The amount of human leadership you have to demonstrate to get the resources, like get the trust of the organization, publish it, put it up. I would just fund researchers all day Right? If who have contributed already to the field. If they've, if they've put SOTA out there, they're, they're star athletes already. If they haven't done SOTA Look, they can still be good CEOs, but then I find the failure mode is that they just don't want to be CEOs, they primarily want to publish, and that's okay, too. One of the things we do with the AMP Grid is we donate excess compute. We have two nonprofits, like university labs. We carved out like a couple thousand H100s. But I do think there's extraordinary research being done on university campuses. My father-in-law's a physicist. He's a professor. Extraordinary work in physics, and we need that. But if you want to be a CEO, what you need to be willing To do is be super confrontational, outside of science. Like within the scientific community, some of the best researchers are very confrontational about their convictions, right? This architecture is right. To be a great CEO, you basically have to be willing to be confrontational up and down the stack.Swyx [00:37:41]: To your own team.Anjney [00:37:42]: To your own team-Swyx [00:37:43]: To customersAnjney [00:37:43]: Hiring, recruiting customers. Well, I would say, Yeah, pretty much to everyone Everybody. Of course-Swyx [00:37:50]: I see, I feel a little bit of that in my own work, but yeah, I can't imagine the stakes that Dario has had to go through. It's, it's pretty insane.Anjney [00:37:56]: No, I don't think the stakes are that different From how you're feeling it, right? Stakes are personal scaling vectors, right? The stakes that seem so low to you, like having this podcast where you can talk to somebody and just have a you're an extraordinary communicator, right? Like already in this conversation, you've pulled more out of me than most people, and I've been on 12 podcasts in the last two weeks.AI Coachella and First-Principles ThinkingSwyx [00:38:17]: I think I, we've just seen each other enough that there's some base trust.Anjney [00:38:20]: There's base trust.Swyx [00:38:20]: And I think, and I know that you, that I've done my homework and like I know that trust is a big deal for you, so.Anjney [00:38:27]: I think trust is about consistency, and you and I have seen each other In the community for years, right? Like, I remember the first time we met was at NeurIPS in New Orleans. I don't know if you remember that, luncheon.Swyx [00:38:38]: Oh my God.Anjney [00:38:39]: Reiko had set up this Reiko's amazing, and he set up this luncheon and-Swyx [00:38:43]: Yeah, I was “Who's this Discord guy?” I'm “Okay.” But-Anjney [00:38:45]: No, you weren't-Swyx [00:38:46]: You were just “You made some investments.”Anjney [00:38:47]: You were much less polite. You were “Who's this VC?” You're like-Swyx [00:38:51]: No, I Was I? Oh my God.Anjney [00:38:53]: It was-Swyx [00:38:53]: I'm so sorryAnjney [00:38:53]: It was visible on your face.Swyx [00:38:54]: I'm so sorry. But you weren't, you weren't The introduction was bad. I was I didn't know who you were.Anjney [00:39:00]: The, see, this is the thing about context, right? Like, but then I think I heard your accent. And I was “Are you-”Swyx [00:39:06]: Singapore, yeahAnjney [00:39:06]: “Are you Singaporean?” And you're “Yeah.” And I said, “I went to high school, JC, in Singapore.” And then the ice broke. But This is the there are in the scientific community, sometimes the stakes are very high for people who haven't had the emotional, what is called EQ Coaching and mentorship, right? Which is like to have scientific impact, you often need to be a extraordinary emotional, like emotionally in tune person with the folks you're trying to influence. And so what comes so naturally to you is actually a super high stakes thing to other people. And so I wouldn't assume that Dario's more stressed out than you. These things are you'd be surprised how similar and small sometimes the problems are to you That some of the world's biggest, leaders are facing. And that's what I've learned from this class. The guest speakers are Sam, Satya, Jensen.Swyx [00:40:01]: AI Coachella.Anjney [00:40:02]: Yeah. It's AI Coachella, right? So we got to get all the headliners, and they're I'm very lucky that some of these people have either mentored me over the years or I've done business with them. And when you, take the performative stuff out and any assumptions you may have about these people that you read in the press or on Twitter, We're all just humans. We're all trying to get along. And what's so special about this moment is AI is forcing, like scaling, the bitter lesson is forcing a lot of people to revise their assumptions for how the world works and go back to first principles or go and educate themselves. So the kind of people I was, I won't name who this person is, but I was at an event last week in Texas and, ran to somebody who said, “Anjney, I came across the class. What do you think about real time action prediction models?” And I was, don't know how happy it made me feel when they asked me that question. I know they've done the work. They've challenged themselves. I'm, they didn't ask me, “What do you think of world models?” They said, “What do you think of n-”Swyx [00:41:04]: Real time action predictionAnjney [00:41:05]: “action, real time action prediction models?” World models, don't get me wrong, are cool and everything, but you and I both know that is a layer of abstraction that is sometimes not usefully precise enough. Right? Ours-Swyx [00:41:16]: There's like four different kinds of world models.Anjney [00:41:17]: Yes, exactly.Swyx [00:41:18]: We've done the part with general intuition, by the way, which is very focused on, -Anjney [00:41:22]: Oh, cool. Yes. I love Pim. Pim is great. And this is what I love about people who've done that level of work. They realize they're not in competition with people who the rest of the world thinks they're in competition with.Swyx [00:41:34]: Because they're not in the category, they're in the specific thing they're trying to do.Anjney [00:41:37]: They're focused on their mission, and they have a systems understanding of the bottleneck they're trying to solve. And when somebody else says, “I'm working on real time, action prediction models too,” Pim goes, “Oh, I love that person. I want, I can learn from them.” But the minute they're “Oh, that person's a world model person,” it's “like which type of world model person?” But mostly they're just trying to figure out if it's a waste of their time, because we don't have enough time. So, Pim, for example, is super, loves this other company I work with we've talked about called Black Forest Labs. And he's mentioned to me multiple times that he's so, He thinks what Flux is doing is really cool. Andy Blattman came by and spoke in the class. And what I find over and over again is for people who do the work, who can be usefully precise enough about like what is actually going on in the world of frontier research, The sense of camaraderie is still well and alive, but it gets lost sometimes when you have to like abstract The technical complexities in, business terms And then the VCs are “How are you different from that world model?” I'm going to say Where do I even start to explain this stuff? And then the misalignment creeps in.Leading vs. Winning in Frontier AISwyx [00:42:43]: This is good. Yeah, I think, people listening get a sense of, what it is like to operate at a real level, like yourself, rather than at, the journalist level, where you have to sort of put everyone in, a rough category and create a narrative of competition, and who's winning today, who's behind.Anjney [00:42:58]: It-- this idea of winning is so Weird to me.Swyx [00:43:03]: You do want to win. You want you want competitiveness.Anjney [00:43:06]: No, I think you want to lead.Swyx [00:43:07]: You want SOTA.Anjney [00:43:07]: No, I think you want to lead. Yes, so you want to push the frontier. You want to push the SOTA. You want to do something that hasn't been done before. You want to capture value, but you don't want to capture so much value that, people think you're unaligned with your mission or trying to do what's best for the world. You want to capture enough value that you can keep innovating, right? And I think that people want to lead, they don't really This idea of winning and losing, again, I love Jensen. He's a, he's a leader. The mindset that he talked about on Dwarkesh's podcast, right? He's “I didn't wake up with a loser mindset.” I think that was awesome, right? Because he's, he's an engineer. Dwarkesh has done the work. So there's at least-- even though the, to me, it was very obvious they're talking about the same thing, they just passed each other. They just had to basically, Jensen has this, five-layer cake abstraction of how the industry works. And Dwarkesh had, I think from that podcast, had more of, a pre-training, mid-training, post-training systems loop concept.Swyx [00:44:04]: It's just a factor of who he talks to, right? Again, it's very clear.Anjney [00:44:06]: It's the systems It's the abstraction, the mental models, the It's the whole-- Dude, so much of the problem in the world is reasoning by analogy. And then the assumptions that are held invisibly.Swyx [00:44:19]: Yeah, I've, I've said, this is actually the best time in human history for first principles thinkers. Because everything you think will happen is actually now coming true.Anjney [00:44:28]: Correct. And the venture capital community is, notorious for this, where people look-- In times of uncertainty, they, cling to axioms that ended up being true from the previous era, and they kind of like proclaim them with confidence as if they're truths, but they're not. And it's very important to see the distinction between a heuristic and an axiom. An axiom can be proven-Swyx [00:44:55]: Like from internal consistency point of viewAnjney [00:44:56]: With internal consistency. A heuristic is a way you kind of a shortcut. And my God, the number of people I have had to put up with over the last few years who proclaim-- use heuristics As axioms to judge people, to judge which companies are going to succeed or the number of people who are “Oh, yeah, Anthropic, they're just training models right now,” but this one continue.Swyx [00:45:22]: Because that's a B2B SaaS?Anjney [00:45:23]: Yeah, the, like Which over the fullness of time, if you squint at it, maybe. But the way you arrive there is so important that you can-- you just, you can dismiss people. Here's what happened, right? What happened is Anthropic basically achieved takeoff in October of last year. That training run-Swyx [00:45:41]: Whatever, three seven?Anjney [00:45:42]: I forget the numbers now, but whatever that checkpoint was-Swyx [00:45:45]: We saw the cognition.Anjney [00:45:46]: Yeah. Right? You probably-- The, to those of us in the community, especially once post-training was done and it was released in December-Swyx [00:45:52]: Yeah. Can I sneak a sneaky question in there? I don't know if you have a perspective, maybe you don't, I just The number one question is how did Anthropic crack coding, right? Because Claude One, Claude Two, okay, like it was part of it, but it wasn't a big deal. And the leading hypothesis, it's a lucky dice roll that was then compounded, right? Like it was like Mildly better, but then they saw it and they were “Okay, let's really invest.”How Anthropic Cracked CodingAnjney [00:46:17]: I had this very annoying teacher. I went to this boarding school called Rishi Valley in India, which is like this, bird preserve. It's like three hundred and fifty acres of bird preserve in rural India, and there was no technology for seven years. There was this teacher, I won't name them, but they would have this-- I hated it every time he said this to me. He was “Luck fa-favors the prepared mind,” which is like a common saying, but the way he delivered it, always grated me, ‘cause he was always I was always one of those kids who got, a good grade without trying very hard. ‘Cause like high middle school is not that hard if you, if you're generally, paying attention and so on. And there was this one time where I-- But then I would get an eighty percent grade, and he would keep pushing me to say “The reason you didn't get the ninety-five plus percent is because you're not that lucky.” And I would say, “What do you mean?” ‘Cause I would think that I deserved that grade, and I would sometimes argue with him. And he'd say, “You didn't have a prepared mind. If you want to get lucky again “ There was basically one time where I got like ninety-five or ninety-six on this, on this subject, and I, now that I felt entitled. I was “Okay, I'm going to keep doing this,” and I didn't. And then he was “Luck favors a prepared mind. You got lucky last time, but you got to stay prepared.” And I didn't understand what he meant. Now, as I'm older, I'm okay, these adults actually knew a thing or two. Anthropic has been the most prepared company for four years. And so then when the right, context data comes in, the right developers start sending in, the right context diffs, Sure, you could say you got lucky, but if you ask me, they're pr-pretty damn prepared with paranoia for like four years. And you have to remember, it was so hard for them to get going early on that they had to do so much more with so much less that you just have to be prepared to be so efficient.Swyx [00:48:06]: Yes. There's numbers on their burn compared to OpenAI. I've, I've written about it, but they are so much more efficient in their, in their tech stack.Anjney [00:48:14]: It's not even It's not funny.Swyx [00:48:14]: Not even close.Anjney [00:48:15]: Yeah. But it's so clear, right? Like how to output max for the world. They have been prepared, and you could call that luck, but Luck favors the prepared mind.Culture, Hardship, and Anthropic's P0Swyx [00:48:25]: This is one of those things that I was going over some of your old lectures and, you were data, people think it's a moat and actually it's culture and actually it's team Actually. And I, it's-- there's different levels of moats, and this is the ultimate one that determines everything else. Which you can then compoundAnjney [00:48:43]: You're saying culture is the ultimate moat? Yeah. But the thing about culture is it's very fragile. So moats, I don't think they're-- there's very few moats I found that are actually moats. They're-- It's, it's a nice concept, but in reality, you have to replenish your culture. Ben Horowitz was, the speaker in CS153 on Tuesday, and I asked him this question about the culture bottleneck in teams because, there are several AI teams-Swyx [00:49:09]: His book, Hard Things About Hard ThingsAnjney [00:49:11]: Hard Thing About Hard Things. But more concretely, there are so many AI labs today that have all the cash they need, they have all the compute they need, and they're still not able to ship anything SOTA. And then you start seeing people leave and so on, and my diagnosis, it's, is it's the culture. And so I asked him, Ben, they're-- He's been one of the most aggressive investors in AI labs. He goes back to this thing which resonates in my mind a lot. It-- When I used to work at a16z, I would, book a conference room, and right outside the conference room, which is closest to the toilet ‘cause it was the fastest way for me to go use the bathroom between Zoom meetings-Swyx [00:49:45]: Oh my God, I'll put maxing my toilet optimization. Okay, never mind.Anjney [00:49:48]: It was not healthy in hindsight, but maybe this is TMI. But anyway, outside that conference on the wall was this quote that was printed that said, “Culture is not a set of beliefs, it's a set of actions.” And it's by Bushido, is this, Japanese philosopher. And if you stop taking the actions that demonstrate the mission alignment to what you've said to your team and to your-- the world matters to you, then your culture starts to fray. So it's not actually a moat, I would say. It's a very brittle, fragile thing that requires daily tending to like a garden. But if you figure out the system to keep that garden tended, which I think ultimately comes down to knowing yourself ‘cause you most naturally, if you're authentic and so on, you'll naturally make trade-offs that seem effortless to you, but that reinforce your culture. And then That becomes this very hard thing for other people to catch up to. And at Anthropic, from day one, there was this mission like-- missionary like zeal and belief that, hey, these capabilities will scale. These systems are stochastic, not deterministic. There will be error bars, and until we crack interpretability, there's risk. And at some point, people will go-- stop using Claude just for coding. They'll use it in some mission-critical context where there's-- it'll throw off a bug, and then people are going to come blame them, and they want to be on the right side of history where they said, “Yes, this is a powerful technology. We think it's going to change the world, And we want to be very measured and scientific about the fact that, ‘Hey, guys, these are stats models, statistical models.' That's how statistics works.” ultimately, when you're training neural nets, it is just a statistical system. And I think that Belief that safety is important and that it might seem toy-like in the early days, and sometimes, you could say, “Anjney, they totally over-exaggerated the risk,” like two years ago when they said, “Let's not launch Claude One,” or whatever. Well, okay, maybe in hindsight, but hindsight is twenty/twenty. And at the time, they didn't know how that model would be used, and to them it felt existential if somebody came and said, “You weren't responsible. It-- This wrote a bug.” The liability associated with that is massive. So how do you prevent against that? Well, day in, day out, you say safety. And when you start deviating from that, you have the team hold you accountable, you have the world hold you accountable, and I think that becomes a moat over time. At some point, that moat will get challenged and so on, and then it become fragile. I hope it endures because that's the beauty of having founders run the show, ‘cause they can make really hard trade-offs to do mission alignment. The hardest part is in the earliest days when you don't have a group of people who are going through difficulty, stress, crisis together, then your culture doesn't get defined sharply enough, and that's what I'm worried about right now, is there's so much money going to these labs. There's no hardship. There's no-Swyx [00:52:50]: To anyone who knowsAnjney [00:52:51]: There's no to anyone who knows. And that, in hindsight, was a feature, not a bug for Anthropic. The number of people who said no, the number of people who said, “Sorry, we're all doing investors in OpenAI,” that is competitive difference. It forces you to really understand, what is the hill you want to die on at the expense of everything else. What's the P zero? And there, P zero from day one was coding. The reason, the mechanism system there was if we crack coding, Then we will crack AGI. Our mission is AGI. We want to get there safely. If we focus on codin

Tháng 04/2026, Nhật Bản “sửa đổi ba nguyên tắc về chuyển giao các thiết bị và công nghệ quốc phòng” để xây dựng chiến lược quốc phòng mới, trong đó có mục đích mở rộng hoạt động xuất khẩu sang cả các loại vũ khí sát thương. Một cơ chế mới cũng đã được thành lập - Chương trình Hỗ trợ an ninh chính thức (OSA) - nhằm mục đích thúc đẩy hợp tác kỹ thuật và trang thiết bị quốc phòng. Và Việt Nam được Nhật Bản xác định là ứng cử viên ưu tiên trong chương trình OSA. Những thay đổi mới trong chính sách quốc phòng của Nhật Bản có tạo thêm những cơ hội mới cho hợp tác với Hà Nội trong lĩnh vực này không ? RFI Tiếng Việt phỏng vấn nghiên cứu sinh Nguyễn Thế Phương, chuyên về lĩnh vực an ninh hàng hải, Đại học New South Wales, Úc. RFI : Trả lời báo tài chính Nikkei Asia ngày 23/04/2026, ông Minoru Kihara, chánh văn phòng thủ tướng Nhật Bản, cho biết Tokyo đã cho phép “sửa đổi ba nguyên tắc về chuyển giao các thiết bị và công nghệ quốc phòng”. Nội dung chính sách mới của Nhật Bản là gì? Tại sao Tokyo lại thay đổi chính sách vào thời điểm này ? Nguyễn Thế Phương : Sau Chiến tranh Thế giới thứ hai, toàn bộ tư duy chiến lược của Nhật là tập trung vô phát triển kinh tế nội địa và tư duy chiến lược của Nhật là chủ hòa. Việc Nhật Bản thay đổi “ba nguyên tắc về chuyển giao các thiết bị quốc phòng” nằm trong sự thay đổi căn bản trong tư duy quốc phòng, văn hóa chiến lược của họ kể từ khoảng đầu thế kỷ thứ XXI với sự trỗi dậy của Trung Quốc, môi trường an ninh khu vực diễn biến ngày càng phức tạp : Sự gia tăng sức mạnh của các hoạt động đơn phương mà nhiều học giả nói là “cố tình thay đổi trạng thái trật tự” của Trung Quốc, đặc biệt là những vấn đề tranh chấp trên biển. Đối với Nhật Bản, một trong những mối nguy nữa, đó là mối đe dọa từ Bắc Triều Bắc. Cũng nói thêm một chút, nước Mỹ dưới thời Donald Trump mong muốn đồng minh, đặc biệt là những đồng minh hiệp ước của họ, có những chính sách và có tiếng nói mạnh mẽ hơn trong việc tự lực xây dựng năng lực quốc phòng, chứ không còn hoàn toàn dựa vào Mỹ với tư cách là một quốc gia bảo trợ an ninh nữa. Điểm thứ ba là điểm mà nhiều người bỏ qua, đó là Nhật Bản cần một cách tiếp cận mới hơn để làm mới ngành công nghệ quốc phòng trong nước. Bởi vì từ trước tới nay, Nhật Bản cấm xuất khẩu trang thiết bị quốc phòng và vũ khí ra nước ngoài. Toàn bộ hạn chế về mặt xuất khẩu này khiến cho ngành công nghiệp Nhật, đặc biệt là công nghiệp quốc phòng, bị hạn chế tính cạnh tranh, đặc biệt trong bối cảnh hiện nay, với những cuộc xung đột khắp nơi trên thế giới thì thị trường vũ khí bắt đầu mang lại lợi nhuận rất lớn. Và Nhật Bản dường như cũng muốn bắt đầu thay đổi cách tiếp cận và tham gia vào thị trường công nghiệp quốc phòng chủ động hơn. Đọc thêmViệt Nam, Nhật Bản "mạnh mẽ" chống lại việc làm thay đổi nguyên trạng các vùng biển trong khu vực Và cuối cùng là yếu tố nội bộ, đó là sự thay đổi về mặt tư duy của liên minh cầm quyền Nhật Bản, bắt đầu từ thời Shinzo Abe. Cách đây khoảng 10-15 năm, đảng Dân Chủ Tự Do đề xuất Chiến lược Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương. Việc này cho thấy rằng đảng Dân Chủ Tự Do mong muốn đưa nước Nhật ra khỏi tư duy chủ hòa và tham gia nhiều hơn về việc tái định hình cấu trúc an ninh khu vực. Đây là bốn điểm tạm gọi là “bốn nền tảng” để giải thích tại sao Nhật Bản bắt đầu phải thay đổi nguyên tắc về chuyển giao thiết bị công nghệ quốc phòng. Với việc thay đổi nguyên tắc mới, họ sẽ bắt đầu không giới hạn thiết bị chuyển giao, mà sẽ mở rộng tới những loại trang thiết bị có thể là sát thương, ví dụ vũ khí tấn công, xe tăng, máy bay và những trang bị khác. Điểm thứ hai, Nhật Bản cho phép hợp tác phát triển các loại vũ khí song phương, một ví dụ ở đây là phát triển máy bay chiến đấu thế hệ thứ năm giữa Nhật, Anh và Ý. Điểm này sẽ cho phép Nhật chủ động hơn, thích ứng linh hoạt hơn trong chính sách phát triển công nghiệp quốc phòng. RFI : Việt Nam thiết lập quan hệ đối tác chiến lược toàn diện với Nhật Bản. Việt Nam là quốc gia thứ 11 ký một thỏa thuận chuyển giao thiết bị, công nghệ quốc phòng với Nhật Bản. Cho đến nay, Tokyo hỗ trợ Hà Nội như thế nào trong khuôn khổ này ? Nguyễn Thế Phương : Trước đây, việc hỗ trợ về mặt chuyển giao thiết bị hoặc công nghệ quốc phòng song phương, chủ yếu Việt Nam sẽ là bên nhận. Những hỗ trợ này chủ yếu xoay quanh việc nâng cao năng lực nhận thức hàng hải, an ninh biển và chủ yếu liên quan đến những loại trang thiết bị vũ khí phi sát thương. Điểm nổi bật thứ nhất là việc chuyển giao tàu tuần tra và phương tiện giúp Việt Nam có thể cải thiện năng lực tuần tra hàng hải, tiêu biểu là việc Việt Nam nhận một số loại tàu cảnh sát biển loại biên của Nhật Bản. Những tàu này thực ra vẫn rất tốt và vẫn phục vụ rất hiệu quả trong quá trình Việt Nam bảo vệ lợi ích trên biển ở thời điểm hiện tại. Đây là khoản hỗ trợ lớn nhất. Đọc thêmViệt Nam, Nhật Bản đạt thỏa thuận về chuyển giao công nghệ quốc phòng Thứ hai là thiết bị giám sát công nghệ hàng hải, ví dụ radar, các thiết bị lặn, công nghệ viễn thám, thông tin liên lạc phục vụ cho quá trình tìm kiếm, cứu nạn, giám sát thực địa trên biển. Và thứ ba là đào tạo, nâng cao năng lực chuyên môn cho các lực lượng của Việt Nam, đặc biệt là lực lượng cảnh sát biển và kiểm ngư. Đây là điểm mà hai bên thường xuyên tiến hành : Trao đổi đoàn, trao đổi tàu, lực lượng Việt Nam qua Nhật Bản để tập huấn. Ở đây tập trung vào một số vấn đề phi tác chiến, ví dụ quân y, phá bom mìn, khắc phục hậu quả chiến tranh, an ninh mạng. Đối với quân đội còn có gìn giữ hòa bình. Đó là ba mảng mà Việt Nam nhận được hỗ trợ có thể nói là rõ ràng nhất từ Nhật Bản thông qua chương trình chuyển giao thiết bị và công nghệ quốc phòng. RFI : Việt Nam được Nhật Bản xác định là ứng cử viên ưu tiên cho Chương trình Hỗ trợ an ninh chính thức (OSA). Anh có thể giải thích OSA là gì ? Theo một quan chức chính phủ Nhật Bản, “quá trình này đôi khi có thể mất thời gian”. Những nước được chọn để hợp tác an ninh thông qua OSA có vai trò như thế nào trong chiến lược của Nhật Bản ? Nguyễn Thế Phương : OSA (Official Security Assistance) là hỗ trợ an ninh chính thức. Đây là một trong những chương trình rất mới, là một công cụ đối ngoại rất mới của Nhật, được thông qua trong chiến lược an ninh quốc gia cuối năm 2022. ODA, là một khái niệm mà chúng ta rất quen thuộc, chỉ giới hạn nghiêm ngặt (ở đây từ “nghiêm ngặt” là từ quan trọng) cho phát triển kinh tế-xã hội. Cho nên nếu như Nhật Bản muốn hỗ trợ về mặt an ninh quốc phòng cho các quốc gia khác thì họ phải tạo ra một cơ chế hoàn toàn mới, chứ không phải là ODA. Thì OSA chính là kết quả. Nói một cách đơn giản OSA chính là ODA nhưng chỉ được dùng cho lĩnh vực an ninh và quân sự. Quá trình này rất mất thời gian bởi vì Nhật Bản sẽ phải thiết lập quy trình khảo sát nhu cầu của bên nhận, đối chiếu nhu cầu đó với pháp luật nội bộ của Nhật, mà chúng ta biết là pháp luật của Nhật về mặt này rất khắt khe. Và nó yêu cầu cả bên cho - ở đây là Nhật - và cả bên nhận - là các quốc gia khác - phải thảo luận rất lâu và rất kỹ để có thể đưa ra được một danh sách tiếp nhận các loại hỗ trợ cho phù hợp. Đọc thêmNhật Bản và Việt Nam tăng cường hợp tác an ninh, ủng hộ thương mại tự do Danh sách các quốc gia được hỗ trợ và có tiềm năng nhận được hỗ trợ OSA từ Nhật Bản vào thời điểm hiện tại chỉ tầm 12 nước, chủ yếu là các nước ở Ấn Độ Dương, Thái Bình Dương, trong đó có 5 nước Đông Nam Á (Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Việt Nam và Thái Lan). Nam Á có hai nước là Bangladesh với Sri Lanka. Ngoài ra còn một số quốc đảo Thái Bình Dương, ví dụ Papua New Guinea, Tonga. Có thể thấy rõ là có Đông Nam Á, khu vực cốt lõi trong chiến lược Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương của Nhật Bản, và đặc biệt là khu vực các quốc đảo Nam Thái Bình Dương hiện đang là khu vực cạnh tranh địa lý khá gay gắt giữa các quốc gia đồng minh của Mỹ và Trung Quốc. Gần đây, Tokyo tăng ngân sách dành cho OSA trong năm tài khóa 2026 lên tầm 112 triệu đô la. Số lượng sẽ không lớn đứng dưới góc độ về mặt ngân sách. Nhưng trong tương lai, ngân sách mà Nhật dành cho OSA sẽ ngày càng tăng và sẽ dựa vào khả năng nước Nhật thích ứng với sự thay đổi không ngừng của môi trường an ninh bên ngoài, cũng như trong chính sách đối nội của Nhật Bản, đặc biệt là việc Nhật điều chỉnh ba nguyên tắc hỗ trợ vũ khí và công nghệ quốc phòng. Trong tương lai, số lượng nước được nhận sẽ tăng lên, cũng như nội dung của OSA cũng sẽ được mở rộng hơn. RFI : Với chiến lược quốc phòng mới của Tokyo mở ra việc bán vũ khí sát thương, liệu trong tương lai, có thể có một chương trình hợp tác sâu rộng hơn về lĩnh vực này giữa Việt Nam và Nhật Bản ? Nguyễn Thế Phương : Nhiều người kỳ vọng rằng hợp tác giữa Việt Nam và Nhật Bản trong tương về chuyển giao trang thiết bị cũng như là hỗ trợ OSA của Nhật Bản đối với Việt Nam sẽ được mở rộng. Tuy nhiên như đã trình bày, quá trình này sẽ không nhanh. Thứ nhất một phần cũng bởi vì phía Nhật Bản, như đã nói, họ sẽ rất kỹ trong vấn đề lựa chọn chuyển giao, tính minh bạch ra sao. Đọc thêmNhật Bản và Việt Nam nâng cấp quan hệ lên thành đối tác chiến lược toàn diện Thứ hai, nhu cầu của Việt Nam ở đây là gì ? Nhu cầu Việt Nam vẫn sẽ có. Nhưng theo tôi, trong tương lai gần, khoảng 5 năm, hợp tác quốc phòng giữa Việt Nam và Nhật Bản cũng sẽ chủ yếu xoay quanh nội dung về an ninh hàng hải, hỗ trợ các loại tàu cảnh sát biển, hỗ trợ Việt Nam đóng một số loại tàu cho cảnh sát biển hoặc là cho kiểm ngư ở trong nước, nhận một số loại trang thiết bị liên quan tới bảo đảm an ninh hàng hải, cũng như là nhận thức hàng hải ở khu vực, hỗ trợ liên quan tới vệ tinh chẳng hạn và tiếp tục huấn luyện. Còn những vũ khí tác chiến, theo tôi, sẽ phải là tương lai xa, cho tới khi nào Nhật Bản hoàn toàn dỡ bỏ những hạn chế về mặt xuất khẩu vũ khí tiến công và cho tới khi nào ngành công nghiệp quốc phòng của Nhật Bản trở nên cạnh tranh hơn, thì khi đó Việt Nam mới bắt đầu xem xét có hay không lựa chọn các loại vũ khí tác chiến của Nhật Bản như là một lựa chọn trong quá trình hiện đại hóa quân đội. Còn ở thời điểm hiện tại, khả năng đó rất là thấp. RFI Tiếng Việt xin chân thành cảm ơn anh Nguyễn Thế Phương, Đại học New South Wales, Úc.

VOV1 - Cơ quan Phát triển Truyền thông Thông tin Singapore (IMDA) vừa ký kết biên bản ghi nhớ (MOU) với Tập đoàn công nghệ Microsoft để thử nghiệm an ninh đối với các mô hình trí tuệ nhân tạo (AI) tiên phong, nhằm chủ động đối phó với các nguy cơ bảo mật toàn cầu.Theo thỏa thuận ký ngày 12/6, IMDA và Microsoft sẽ đồng nghiên cứu các giải pháp đánh giá mô hình AI, bao gồm cả mức độ vận hành an toàn trên nhiều ngôn ngữ khác nhau, đồng thời trao đổi thông tin về các mô hình quản trị và thông lệ tối ưu.Động thái này diễn ra ngay sau khi giới công nghệ báo động về Claude Mythos Preview – mô hình AI mới nhất của phòng thí nghiệm Anthropic (Mỹ). Vào tháng 4/2026, Anthropic cho biết mô hình Claude Mythos Preview đã phát hiện hàng nghìn lỗi bảo mật ở mức độ từ "nghiêm trọng" đến "nguy cấp" trên tất cả các hệ điều hành và trình duyệt web lớn, trong đó có những lỗ hổng đã bị ẩn giấu hàng thập kỷ. Mô hình này cũng có thể tự thiết kế phương thức khai thác những lỗ hổng này – điều được cho là chưa từng có tiền lệ.Do năng lực quá mạnh mẽ và tiềm ẩn rủi ro cao, Anthropic chưa phát hành rộng rãi siêu AI này ra công chúng mà chỉ giới hạn quyền tiếp cận cho một nhóm doanh nghiệp thuộc dự án thử nghiệm mang tên Project Glasswing.Sự xuất hiện của Claude Mythos Preview đã kích hoạt chuỗi cảnh báo an ninh trên toàn cầu. Ngân hàng Trung ương Châu Âu (ECB) khẩn trương đánh giá các rủi ro hệ thống tài chính; trong khi tại Mỹ, Bộ trưởng Tài chính Scott Bessent và Chủ tịch Cục Dự trữ Liên bang (Fed) Jerome Powell cũng phải triệu tập cuộc họp khẩn với các giám đốc điều hành ngân hàng hàng đầu. Tại Singapore, Cục An ninh Mạng (CSA) cũng ngay lập tức phát đi khuyến cáo, thúc giục các doanh nghiệp siết chặt phòng thủ bằng cách cập nhật bản vá lỗi và bắt buộc triển khai xác thực đa yếu tố (MFA).Thông qua hợp tác với Microsoft, Singapore sẽ tận dụng nền tảng đám mây Azure AI Foundry của tập đoàn này để tiếp cận sớm các mô hình AI lớn và đa dạng hiện nay (bao gồm cả OpenAI và Anthropic), cùng với mô hình ngôn ngữ lớn riêng của hãng là Microsoft AI (MAI). Điều này giúp cơ quan quản lý Singapore chủ động thử nghiệm độ an toàn đa ngôn ngữ và xây dựng hệ thống phòng ngự trước khi các công cụ công nghệ này bị tội phạm mạng lợi dụng khai thác.Trước Singapore, Microsoft cũng đã ký kết các thỏa thuận hợp tác an toàn AI tương tự với Viện An toàn AI của Vương quốc Anh và Trung tâm Sáng tạo và Tiêu chuẩn AI của Mỹ./.VOV Thái LanẢnh: Reuters
Hello friends! I've been on a bit of an AI agent journey lately, and today I'm sharing my experience ditching OpenClaw and going all-in on Hermes — a self-hosted AI agent built by Nous Research. A Network Chuck video sold me on it, I wiped my Mac Mini (again), and baby's first Hermes adventure began! Here's what we get into today: Why I left OpenClaw — After getting the Mac Mini set up, OpenClaw left me feeling pretty meh: burning through API requests, random mid-conversation shutdowns, and a marketplace where the top listings were flagged as "potentially malicious." Hard pass. Network Chuck's five reasons Hermes rocks — His video summarized why Hermes stands out: (1) Nous Research has serious open source model cred predating OpenClaw, (2) more flexible persistent memory via markdown files + optional Honcho integration for building a profile of you over time, (3) a mission around humanistic and democratic AI, (4) a self-improvement loop where it writes its own skills after figuring things out, and (5) it just doesn't break — it feels like a product, not a project. The install — I used Claude to build a Mac Mini install guide from the Network Chuck transcript, and had Hermes up and running in about 15 minutes (one small Ollama hiccup aside). The install wizard lets you choose cloud models like Claude or ChatGPT, or go fully local with something like Gemma — I'm planning a hybrid setup with two Telegram bots. First real-world use: sitting in a truck running errands — With Hermes running on the Mac Mini and connected via Telegram, I asked it what it could do. It suggested Uptime Kuma for LAN monitoring — weirdly well-timed since I'd just been thinking about flaky IoT devices. I said "go install it," and it did — narrating its own troubleshooting out loud the whole time like a little robot intern. Remote access and Home Assistant — Had it install Home Assistant for smarthome control too, with plans to wire up TwinGate for remote access (it had a TailScale skill ready to fire in about two seconds, but I'm trying to keep VPN services consolidated). Daily digest via email — Hooked Hermes into a dedicated Gmail account and set up a 6 a.m. cron job that sends me a personalized morning digest: weather for my watched locations, recent breach/CVE news from select sites, and a summary of my favorite pentesting-focused Mastodon accounts. Needs tuning, but the first digest landed this morning and it's really good! The privacy angle — The real long-term win I see here is a hybrid model: feed raw, unsanitized pentest data to a local private model, let it analyze and sanitize, then hand off the clean version to a cloud model for deeper insight. Best of both worlds without the data exposure anxiety. Check out the Network Chuck video that started it all, and as always, if you're doing cool AI + security stuff, I'd love to hear about it.

You're tuning in to APEX Express, a weekly radio show uplifting the voices and stories of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. I'm your host, Miata Tan. We're nearly halfway through June, and Pride Month is in full swing. Pride is a time to celebrate, honor, and dig into the deep political history of queer and trans communities. And tonight, [00:01:00] we're zooming into a few distinct queer Asian American communities right here in Northern California. First, we'll hear from a collective of queer and trans Vietnamese artists, activists, and organizers based in the Bay Area, who have a brand-new documentary out this weekend. Then we'll dive into the political organizing of queer and trans Hmong communities in Fresno and Sacramento. And we'll close out the show with a queer Asian American community leader and some different ways that you can get involved this summer. Okay, let's get into it. First up, my conversation with QTViet Cafe Collective. And before you ask, no, QTViet Cafe is not a brick-and-mortar cafe that serves coffee. They are a Bay Area-based creative cultural hub for queer and trans Vietnamese liberation through gatherings, art showcases, cultural programming, and more. QTViet Cafe is a part of Asian Refugees United, [00:02:00] and tonight we'll be discussing their new documentary, Dong Hoi: Of the Same Womb. It is premiering this Sunday, June 14, as part of the 22nd Annual International Queer Women of Color Film Festival in San Francisco. Dong Hoi asks viewers what it means to return to a homeland, to a community, to yourself. Here's my conversation with the QTViet Cafe Collective. Miata Tan: Thank you all so much for joining me today on APEX Express. Sage, perhaps you can start us off. would you be able to introduce yourself and share a little bit about what the QTViet Cafe Collective is? Sage Tran: My name is Sage. I use they/them pronouns. One of filmmakers/digital archivists for QTViet Cafe Collective. we are a cultural hub where we focus on, diasporic themes around intergenerational Vietnamese and identity and queerness. We do a lot our [00:03:00] events and workshops and gatherings around food, remembrance, and, our gay and they selves. Miata Tan: Lovely. Jessie, who are you and what brought you to QTViet? Jessie Nguyen: Sure, my name is Jessie, and my pronouns are they or Jessie, and I've been part of the collective since, 2018. I think I found the collective in a place in my life when I was really searching for ways to, bring an intersection to all parts of my identities, QTViet Cafe Just like Sage said, it's a creative hub, it's a cultural hub that is really dedicated to uplifting queer and trans Viet liberation through ancestral practices , different, forms of art and intergenerational connection. yeah, I just really appreciate the ways that QTViet Cafe has just been so dedicated to our, art and then also uplifting our art to really, bring forth community, organizing work, solidarity [00:04:00] work and our own, like, queer and trans Viet excellence Miata Tan: Love that. Jean, could you share a little bit about yourself as well? Jean Pham: Thanks for having us here. my name is Jean Pham. I use they/them pronouns. i've also been a part of QTViet Cafe since 2018 when I had first moved here to the Bay Area. Like Sage and Jessie had shared, QTViet Cafe is, it's a really special space. I think as d- diasporic Vietnamese, speaking broadly, like culturally we experience being displaced on many different levels. Um, when people say that it's a cultural hub, really tangible in a, in a lot of the activities and things that we do. we've hosted like art residencies. We cultural dinners. We have language groups. QTViet Cafe, it really exists to fill a need. and I think part of that need brought us, to the culmination of this specific project, to bring us back into Vietnam Miata Tan: Yeah, lovely. And we can pick up from there your trip to Vietnam. this, was captured by Sage recently in a documentary. Sage, could you speak more about what, this new doco is about? where did this project come [00:05:00] from? Sage Tran: this project emerged from a collective hunger for wanting to return back to the motherland. for years of doing a lot of gathering here, specifically in the Bay Area, we've been able to stay rooted in the territories here. And, we all came to a consensus like , what would it be like to gather a bunch of us and connect with our siblings, brother, sisters, family, chosen fam out in the motherland? that became a seed that we cultivated, planted, tend to, and we fundraised with a lot of community support to get about 13 of us out uh, Vietnam. maybe Jessie can talk a little bit more about this, but Hai and Ma are the, folks who founded QTViet Cafe Collective [00:06:00] Jessie, Ma, and Hai. They all three went to Vietnam in 2022 and built a lot of beautiful connections of like local drag artists, queer trans collectives out there. That's kind of what birthed Dong Khoi. Miata Tan: so I've been lucky enough to, watch the film already. Donghui is the name of the documentary, but it's also the name of the performance that came together Jesse, perhaps you can speak to this this journey more and I know QTViet C- Cafe's been around since 2016, this project goes back, a few years as well Jessie Nguyen: Yeah, sure. I can speak a little bit about that and just chiming into, like, what Sage already shared. there was a small group of collective members that that came up with the idea of, like, what would it be like for us as, queer and trans Viet diasporic folks to go to the homeland. the original intent was for that trip to happen in 2020. And it [00:07:00] actually, because of the pandemic, I think obviously things were, logistically it just didn't work, but that, dream, like, surfaced again, so the question came up about, like, what would it be like for us to travel together to the homeland as a collective and also share our art, to , connect with other Viets in Saigon. You know, when we're in the Bay, so much of our work is really centered around gathering communities around our food, our art, and our stories. And so it really made sense for us to think about what would that look like in Vietnam. And so in 2022, as Sage was mentioning, me, Hai, and Ma,, went to Saigon and just kind of explored, like, what is the creative scene like and were able to connect queer and trans Viet artists who are doing insanely inspiring creative work. we connected with folks from the Baxiu Collective, and they're a group of, queer and trans Viet artists who are doing drag in different, performance spaces in queer bars in Saigon. And then I think in that moment we're like, “Wait, we would love to [00:08:00] collaborate with you.” from that unfolded, a, a year-long , like, planning of, what would it look like for us to do a shared showcase together. And so we identified built relationships with a queer bar in Saigon. and then so leading up to the homeland trip, we planned this showcase where it would be a mix artists from our collective and artists from their collective, and then a whole, a whole performance that unfolded. And I think in the year of 2023, that year I think we ended up fundraising, about 50K in order to really subsidize and support the whole journey of getting us to Vietnam. Like, stipending artists and creatives that we were collaborating with. it was, one of the biggest projects I think that QTViet has ever been a part of and really undertaken, and I think it definitely is, like, a huge highlight for, like, my time with QTViet. Miata Tan: Lovely, and it's so beautiful to see it all come together in the documentary. Jean, could you speak to your experience? I understand this was [00:09:00] your first time ever visiting Vietnam Jean Pham: Yes, it was my first time visiting Vietnam. so I had a well of emotions in terms of the lead-up to it. Like Jesse was sharing, you know, originally the plan was we were gonna go in 2020. That had to shift, you know, shelter in place and everything. A lot of the work that we do is reconnection, right? as diasporic Vietnamese being displaced from our ancestral land, as queer and trans people, um, a big rallying point for many of us is feeling displaced from our own families. And so part of, like, returning back together is fighting against it. It's like, what if we reconnect ? You know, what if we re- reunite? You know, w- if we're traveling together as queer community, we can really see and understand what it's like to be uh, Vietnam for ourselves. And so it was really, like h- it had this like gravity around it, and I think it made me really nervous but also excited. that being said, you know, a lot of other folks who are part of our cohort, even though they had gone to Vietnam before, a lot of them had also shared this is their [00:10:00] first time going without family, And we're going specifically towards, queer and trans community in Vietnam, which is also a departure from their other experiences too. Jessie Nguyen: Can I just add something? Because I just really loved what Gene shared. I just think that, yeah, I think that you really spoke to something there about how we can spend our whole lives, like, having this understanding of homeland that is actually quite disconnected from our queerness and our transness. And similar to, like, many other folks in the collective, like, I have been to Vietnam, multiple times before, but never in the context of centering my queerness and transness because I just wasn't sure, like, what felt safe. You know, without having, like, fluency in the language or even knowing, like, how to express my queerness in Vietnam. Oftentimes it just felt… I felt pretty invisibilized there, you know, because, like, being there with family, I just show up as, like, a, a family member, There's so much that is a part of me that is expressed through my queerness and my transness that [00:11:00] is that isn't as visible. And so I think that being in a space as a collective gave us permission to do and to feel deeply woven into our cultural experience was, like, in- in- incredibly liberating. Miata Tan: Yeah. That's really beautiful, Jessie. I also noticed in the film your aunt was also, part of it as well, so you were able to hold that familial side of yourself as well as the queer side. Could you speak more to that? Jessie Nguyen: Yeah. I was just watching the documentary yesterday too, and I was like, oh my gosh, I– it was so sweet that my aunt had a moment in that documentary. the thing that I was really interested in was trying to weave my connection with my family to, like, my connection with, like, my chosen queer family, And I think that became very possible when, we did the homeland trip. I'm, I'm not fluent in Vietnamese, and I'm especially not fluent in trying to articulate what it means to be queer and [00:12:00] Vietnamese. And so the idea of inviting QTViets to my aunt's home was, like, a way to be like, “Hey, this is who I and here are my– here's my community.” And maybe if I can't actually, like, articulate that, like, I I want my aunt to, like, feel that sense of, like, care and connection of my community. And then to me that felt like a way of inviting my Vietnamese family to this part of my life. I think that it's, it's oftentimes hard to even do that here in the Bay. You know? Like, the connection that I have to my blood family and then my connection to my chosen family here in the Bay, like, can feel quite separate. keeps me coming back to QTViet is that we always make space for that intergenerational connection that doesn't invisibilize our queerness and our gender identity . Miata Tan: Sage, could you speak more to this theme of family? It seemed to be really core to the documentary tell us about how that felt as the director, like being behind the [00:13:00] camera but also part of the QTViet team on this trip? Sage Tran: directing and being behind the camera had a lot of challenges. I think there's something where I'm not sure if y- like folks can relate to this, but when you are filming something with your iPhone or on your camera, there's a connection and a disconnection that happens at the same time. You're not able to fully present, but you are. I was straddling the line of like is this shot looking beautiful and also crying I think there was a moment where we were in a taxi or Grab car, and it was Hai, Jesse, and Jesse's aunt, she was dropping some heavy moments, and I just remember we're all crying in the car while the Grab driver is like blasting music, and it's like a super bumpy road. People are honking at us, and it was just like such a funny and rocky, symbolic, memory I just was like, “Wow, I can't [00:14:00] believe I'm getting to document this” like historical moment, not only for Jesse, but just like for the collective and what does it mean for folks who are queer and trans that can't have moments like this. It's just like kind of a reminder to slow down and being like, ” Okay,” am I getting to embody this moment while holding the stabilization of the camera?” And I think still I find that to be a challenge, but a, a really fun dance of filmmaking, directing and being there. Miata Tan: Yeah, definitely. I can't imagine trying to keep the camera still while you're bawling your eyes out. Sage Tran: Yes. Miata Tan: Jean, we've talked a now about this connection of blood family and found family as well. could you speak a bit to the QTViet Cafe family that sort of came together on the trip, but also this wider, Vietnamese, queer community you were able to find over there in Saigon? Jean Pham: Every step of the way it felt really [00:15:00] good because when, like, you know, we were traveling together as this, this giant mass of just gay people. and so I always felt like, oh, I could kinda be off guard, I understand that, like, for a lot of Korean trans people, w- when traveling we're on high alert, there's just a lot of unpredictability. There is safety in numbers. There's safety in communities. I felt like, you know, the QTViets have my back. There was a bigger group that came together in SFO, and we just t- all booked the same flights. And then there were some people who were coming, like, a little bit later. I had been with QTViets at that point for about six or seven years, and so there was a lot of trust already built. With the Saigonese Viets, it, it was like a, just a natural kinship. You know? It was like, it was also as if like we were just friends off the bat or there was just this shared understanding. We had a gathering, and I think this is featured in the documentary. after gathering, people were just kind of, getting to know each other in in their flat, and they were teaching us how to walk in heels, and it was so lovely. And I remember thinking like, “Oh gosh, what music do I play here? How do I set the mood?” But the, th- I think the reality is, [00:16:00] you know, Rihanna is like a common language, like among gay people. Everyone under like … It was, it was funny 'cause like, you know, I would, you know, I would play music that I would just listen to. Like, they're just, pop girlies that would play in the States. And, yeah, gay people, like, they, they just love a diva no matter where you are. And so that that was really nice. But r- truly, like, the DIY drag scene in Saigon is huge, and it c- it's, like, so varied. And, I do wanna shout out, like, all the queens and the Baxio Collective and all the trans artists who really helped, make our show and, like, really helped hone in our craft. And they were pr- they were strict, you know? They were like, “You have to come here early, and you have to come in, like, days before. And we're gonna have to practice over and over again.” And they had, like, really specific notes on how to make the show better. And so it was interesting as a culture exchange they were learning, how we were operating in terms of how we organize and a- I think a lot of the spoken word, slam poetry style that, like, some of our members were bringing. And from them, we were [00:17:00] learning a lot of the theatrics on really how to, like, have a show and really think, holistically about all the different components. Miata Tan: Jessie, could you speak more to the show? Uh, what did it look like? How did it feel? Jessie Nguyen: So back in 2022 was when we discovered that there is actually one queer bar in Saigon, and it's in District 4. this bar called Bar Zinga. And it's, like, in this alleyway. It's pretty divey. And so when we were there in 2022, we actually spent uh, New Year's there, and we got to know the owner, and we got to know, like, what they envisioned for the space, which is they've been using it as a space for, drag, drag performances, music sets, and things like that. And we're like, “Oh, wait. Maybe this could be a good spot for us to do something for QTViet.” And So essentially the vision for the show was for us to collaborate with, Babel and Yat, who are the co-founders of Bạc Xỉu Collective, they are incredible, like, production artists and drag artists. we [00:18:00] invited folks from the collective, if they wanted to share some of their art as well. And so we had… Let's see. I remember Irene, who is one of the poets and also, like, OG QTViets, shared, some poetry, and then we had also Hai sharing some erotica. Me, Hai, and Lan did a ao dai fashion runway show. and then there was, Oh, Judy and Hiroshi who did, like, a whole, like, lô tô, so that was, like, based off of, like, like a Vietnamese game, and they did a whole performance on that. yeah. So it was kind of, like, cool to be in this space and inviting folks from the community to come in, and it was a full house. people were feeling so nervous, but the, also the energy of, like, I can't believe this is happening. You know? that the art that we've created in the Bay, that we get to share it in Saigon. Miata Tan: So beautiful. yeah, it's really nice to see this, cross-cultural, international, connection that you've built with, the folks in Vietnam. Sage, could you speak more to, the [00:19:00] documentary itself, what you hope viewers will take away from the film, and especially seeing depiction of, of queer joy in the performance? Sage Tran: I think what I hope viewers take is like the power of remembering and the power of remembering with community. Cause I think like also editing this film, I'm like, I remember exactly what y'all said word for word. It's like ingrained in my head. I think there was something that, Jean, you said in… You said something where like it doesn't matter if you're Vietnamese, it doesn't matter where you were born. It matters and it doesn't, but also like there's so many cross-cultural connections and parallels that, tie us all together. And I think, on the theme of remembering and leaning into our joy and our creativity, there's so much that can unlock with, just living our truths. I think, yeah, I think that's what I hope viewers take away with Miata Tan: Beautiful. and the documentary will be premiering, this [00:20:00] June, as part of QSMAP here in the city in San Francisco. We have A little bit of time here, so I'd love to talk about, uh, what else QTViet has on the horizon, campaigns, workshops, other performances. Jean, Jessie, would either one of you be able to speak to this? Jessie Nguyen: The only thing that is really on my mind around QTViet is that we are celebrating our 10-year anniversary in September. And I don't know what that's gonna look like, but I think that it definitely is gonna be a invite and just a opportunity for us to reflect on everything that we've been able to cultivate as a collective, and also just to notice, like, how much we've evolved. I think that when so many of us joined in 2016 to 2018, we were, younger queers who were really looking for community and maybe felt pretty isolated. And I know that, like, where I am today, my connection to my Vietness and my queerness, like, feels so deeply ingrained. And a [00:21:00] huge part of that is because of having a container like QTViet. I was also gonna talk about Ordinary People, because it's actually a show that we're doing a audio visual storytelling performance that is led by one of the QTViet members, Jop, uh, Nguyen. And it's gonna include, several other QTViet members that are gonna be, contributing as, like, a band. there have been music and songs and videos and animations and, yeah, lots of different elements to really bring to life, like, what it feels like for our parents to, experience their homeland, their escape, their journey here, and then also how we really, how we connect to that story. Miata Tan: Thank you for sharing, Jessie. Sadly, this interview is airing after the Ordinary People performance, but I'll play a little snippet in a bit. Jean, final question. with this 10-year anniversary of QTViet Cafe, how do you see your recent [00:22:00] adventures informing your work? How you organize, how you gather Jean Pham: I think after the trip, there was, like, a re-invigoration of, purpose honestly, like, a new wave of renewed energy and also new people who were joining the space. we started practicing a lot more solidarity work. I think almo- almost immediately after returning, there were a few events that was in solidarity with, Palestine. And as we were returning from the trip, last year was also the 50th anniversary of the war in Vietnam ending, and so we used that as an opportunity to draw connections between how, the conditions of the Vietnam War was truly, like, politically activating for a lot of young people in the '60s, similarly to um, the genocide uh, Palestine was politically activating for people now, uh, and how, like, have a shared struggle. with 10 years of QTViet Cafe, I think it's more evident that QTViet is an, like, entity, a group that needs to exist. and we always invite people to join us. if anyone's listening who is diaspora queer and trans Vietnamese, is looking [00:23:00] for community, you know, looking for language classes or, like, just, uh, ways to build, you know, we're always more than happy to join people. You know, last year, Jessie and a a couple other friends organized this amazing trip to New York. there was really this big energy around uniting all the different scattered parts of QTViets all over and coming together and understanding that, you know, we, we all, um, um, have a lot in common. and so I, I do think that was really uplifted and highlighted in our trip, this feeling of, like, you know, we're not- we're actually not so alone, and there's so many of us, and we're, like, we're all so powerful. Miata Tan: Beautiful. I think that's a perfect place to end. Thank you all so much for joining me today Jessie Nguyen: Yay. Thank you so much Sage Tran: Thank you so much. Thank you. Jean Pham: I know, this is so lovely. Thank you. Miata Tan : That was Sage Tran, Jean Pham, and Jessie Nguyen with the QTViet Cafe Collective. Their new documentary, Dong Hue: Of the Same Womb, premieres this Sunday, June 14th at the Presidio Theatre in San Francisco.

For links to these events and more about QTViet Cafe and how you can get involved in the collective, check out the show notes for this episode. That's on our website at kpfa.org/program/APEXexpress Coming up next, queer and trans Hmong communities in California's Central Valley. But first, here's a taste of Ordinary People, a recent live performance by QTViet Cafe recorded in Oakland last month. Miata Tan : [00:25:00] [00:26:00] [00:27:00] That was a live recording from Ordinary People by the QTViet Cafe Collective, in Oakland last month. This is APEX Express, a weekly radio show uplifting the voices and stories of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. Tonight, in honor of Pride Month, we're turning our attention to queer Asian American communities right here in Northern California: who they are, how they organize, and the future they are fighting for. Miata Tan: My next guests are Shai Chang and Christine Thao from Queer Hmong Intersectional Pride, also known as QHIP. QHIP grows out of Hmong Innovating Politics, a grassroots advocacy group based [00:28:00] in Fresno and Sacramento, and focuses on building community and political power for queer and trans Hmong communities in California's Central Valley. Here's my conversation with Shai and Christine. Miata Tan : You both so much for joining me today on APEX Express. Could you share a little bit about yourself? Who are you, and what is your work with Hmong Innovating Politics? Shai Chang: Hi, my name is Shai, pronouns are they and them. I'm trans, non-binary, also Hmong, located in Yokuts Valley, Fresno, California. the work that I do in Hmong Innovating Politics is that I am a community organizer. I'm the Fresno Trans and Queer Community Organizer, I work specifically in the program called Queer Hmong Intersectional Pride, or QHIP, Q-H-I-P. And we do a lot of really great work with our trans and queer, in particular, like, intersectional folks, people of color within our, our communities and our members and our base to organize to fight, fascism, racism, also, like, transphobia and forms [00:29:00] of hate, moving us towards social justice and liberation. Miata Tan : It's really important work, and I'm excited to get into more of what, Queer Hmong Intersectional Pride looks like, Christine, could you share a little bit about yourself? who are you, and how long have you been with, HIP and QHIP? Christine Thao : Thank you so much for inviting my name is Christine Thao. I use she/they pronouns, and I am currently here on Nisenan, occupied Nisenan land here in the South Sacramento area. my role is the Sacramento, Trans Queer Community Organizer. And so I came into HIP, back in 2020, so during the COVID pandemic, and, um, I came on board as the administrative assistant. um, in 2024, I transitioned into the community organizer role. Miata Tan : Lovely. Yeah. Can't wait to get into the work that you do and the campaigns. to ground us in the history of, Hmong communities in America, Shai, could you speak to, who [00:30:00] the Hmong Americans are? I know that Fresno and Sacramento is home to some of the largest populations of Hmong people in the States. Shai Chang: Yeah, definitely. so the Hmong communities are from Southeast Asia, very much like indigenous folks that live within the mountain ranges and the hills. and the reason why we came to America was because of the Secret War the war that happened in Southeast Asia. one of our community members General Vang Pao was involved within this war and then pulled in the rest of the Hmong community to be part of this it is to say that, like many of our young men during that time was pulled into the war, and they were 13, maybe even 14, 15, and younger who were, pulled into the war to fight for America, um, with the promise of that America was going to give them a place that they could call home it was in 1975 where the war ended and, that's when the military went ahead and was able to, because of Ronald Reagan signed, um, a letter for immigration for, [00:31:00] these Hmong folks and refugees to come into the United States. Miata Tan : Yeah, perhaps you can take us back to then, 2018 when, QHIP sort of came to life. what was the need that you were seeing for, queer and trans Hmong people in, in specifically Fresno and, and Sacramento where you all are based? Shai Chang: the way Hmong communities have always existed was very much to be lay low, you know, not be sticking your head out. And so to be very clear, it's that we are still struggling, economically. we are still very much struggling racially. The ICE attacks definitely impacted our communities we are still very much immigrants and still very much not necessarily having a place of home. But internally is that the Hmong community still very much holds on to, like, the, the traditions. And so they're very patriarchal, um, very strict gender roles, and because of these things have then developed into, gender-based violence [00:32:00] as, like, trans and queer folks, it's that we definitely do experience another deeper layer of the oppressions, especially also in our community because there isn't actually any language in Hmong to talk about what trans or queerness is, where there's no exact word to describe, like, gay or lesbian and things like that. So there is definitely, like, an erasure that also has happened, and in the Hmong community is actually very conservative. Uh, But HIP was already a very progressive organization. And so it was in 2018 because of Hmong innovating politics coming to Fresno. it was at the Hmong New Years, I saw them. I was like, “Oh my gosh, I know who you are. I love you. Like, if there's anything I can do, please let me know,” ‘ Mai Thao was able to pull me in. It was like, “Hey, I want you to do something with us.” and with- was then funded three thousand dollars through HIP, to be able to go ahead and organize for whatever it means for me to trans queer Hmong work. during that time, it grew from, like, me, three people to having, like, fifteen people, [00:33:00] meet, once a week for three hours, and then another three hours we would go out and hang out. and so it really became this place for a social space for particularly, and, and I will name it, it's that majority of the folks in that space was gay cis Hmong men. And it wasn't until a year later from that first time that we first met in 2018 to we had a really hard conversation about our future, about the political work that that we should be doing. and so I've been with HIP for four years, and we've officialized during that time QTPIP to be a program, within HIP, and yeah, it's been really good. I don't have to worry about funding and things and organizing around that front end, and HIP has been able to be s- very supportive in being able to see that, and we can really work on the ends of what does it mean for us to organize around liberation and being on the ground with our community Miata Tan : Yeah, definitely. It's interesting to hear about the progression from [00:34:00] perhaps a group that was maybe more apolitical moving into that political space. Shai Chang: we've also been, struggling still even now to land on what it means for us to fight more intersectionally. that's where, like, QHIP and Queer Hmong and intersectional pride comes from, right? Is this word intersectional, coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw, is that We do have these cross identities that exist within ourselves. And so would love to have Christine talk more about what actually this issue is within not just Hmong communities, Hmong and trans queer communities. Christine Thao : Thank you, Shy. so Queer Hmong Intersectional Pride, we officially launched the program back in 2024. our QHIP program, It is open to young people between ages, 18 to 25. uh, young trans queer folks. Some go to college. Some, currently looking to be employed. Young people who are impacted, [00:35:00] young people who want to get involved, right, who, who do care about, this work, and who care about social justice, it's a eight-month program And our gatherings are, we call them our huddles, our QHIP huddles. And they're, we do them about biweekly, I can speak a little bit for Sacramento. we've been meeting up at a cafe. We also use our office space. And, this is just a really a moment in time for our members to, bring up and have critical conversations about things that are happening in their lives or things that they're seeing in their community. Miata Tan : Perhaps you could speak more to the organizing piece. What does this look like? Um, what sort of work are y'all up to? Shai Chang: Some of the ways in which we have organized, in our community is through the framework of BBB. It's our belong, believe, become, and it sounds really cheesy, but this is really how we mobilize our people, we know as trans and queer people, especially as a person of color, we don't know and have enough spaces of [00:36:00] belonging. we actually have a, such a hard time believing in ourselves, and because of that, we have such a hard time in becoming. And this sounds like the story of literally just transitioning. when you Transition is that you really need to have a space of, believing in yourself. You need to have a space in which you can belong, where you are safe, and then through that you can actually become and this person that you have always wanted to be. This is how we mobilize and organize our members and our community because once they start practicing this ability to be able to believe in themselves, have the spaces for them to organize and organize with other people. and to figure out, like, , what is our campaign strategy? What is the ways in which we wanna win in our community, right? And Uh, in gender-affirming care in Fresno and the Central Valley was very, very hard. many of the times folks will have to go to, like, the bigger cities like LA SF to get their care that they needed. We need actual, like, [00:37:00] materialistic wins for our communities so that way they can get to where they need to be. when I'm talking about Materialistic things, it's that, we need them to be housed. We need them to have the affordable, uh, care. We need them to have, the affirming care that they are needing, we know how hard it is for, in particular, trans and queer people to be able to afford literally anything. and it's so much more harder for them to find a career or a job, in a place where they actually also can live and exist through their identities. we've seen the, impacts of, ICE and immigration on our own communities these were, like, the works that were coming out constantly for our communities to fight for, these kind of justice issues, through these ways, we've been able mobilize and move our people to what does it mean for us to actually start thinking about a campaign strategy for us to win some kind of materialistic need and, of course, we work with youths a lot, right? So where is our youth justice at? And this is literally our youth justice, right? We're having our young people share their voices. We [00:38:00] have our young adults organizing in the community, um, doing protestings, and fighting against the system. in particular, more recently, this, board of supervisor in Fresno County banned and denied, LBGTQ books in the Fresno County libraries. and we've organized to get people to show up to write letters and to really be there, and hundreds of people shown up and yet they still continue to, not hear their own constituency and their own community They continuously vote against us. that's why HIP is political, right? Is that we have our civic engagement side, is that, okay, well, it sounds like we need to vote them out, right? And that's what is it mean, and that's what it's about now. Miata Tan : Yeah, I hear you. It sounds like you're really helping to build political power within Hmong communities in, in Fresno and Sacramento. I'm curious, what has wins look like, uh, for your groups there? how have, you perhaps helped to show those material, changes [00:39:00] for your young people? Shai Chang: Uh, to be honest, it's not much, We're still very new into formed more as a social group in 2018, and just finally became, you know what? Let's be political as f***. Let's be authentic as f***, you know? y'all really wanna make trans and queer identities political, Then let's be political. and we've just started mobilizing, moving around those kind of things and identities only just more recently, right? As Christine mentioned, in But the wins that we can really claim a name is that we have a 100% retention rate for our members. yeah. Um, we have tripled the amount of members that we had since then. and we are so excited for us to be able to, like, move and mobilize with our people intentionally and not just like, “Oh, we just need to be here for critical mass,” it is a two-part, right? It's that, one, we need critical mass. We And the other part of this is that we [00:40:00] people to come in intentionally to be a part of this movement work. I actually went to present about QHIP more recently, and they asked, “Oh my gosh, is there any, like, open meetings that you have flyers about? Like, when do y'all meet? And then, like, do you have a flyer for that? And I can share it with, my members.” And I was like, “Actually, we do meet, and it– we do meet biweekly on Fridays. The members themselves are holding the space for the meeting. and so I can ask them about that, but I also wanna let you know that it's not necessarily an open invitation for folks to just come in whenever they want.” We want people to come in intentional, and we want people to engage intentionally. And this is how we want us to move away from this autopilot into being able actively making changes and fights for our communities that will win us materialistic wins. Obviously in this administration, in the Trump administration, um, it has not been easy. just two years ago, they actually closed, the only LGBTQ [00:41:00] homeless shelter in Fresno, and a lot of folks now have, like, a hard time understanding where to go and what and how to navigate it. the Fresno, like, LGBTQ center also closed their doors for, like, the first time in, like, a long And so there is a lot of different impacts as impacting our community, from, like, LGBTQ centers closing, LGBTQ-serving organizations slowing down, And the way that our members and our community and our base have been organizing is As a community resource with one another is that like, ” Hey, I have an extra bed. Y'all can come sleep and crash ” there.” you hungry?” Let's go get food.” Right? Really checking with each other and also being able to ask our community for funding as So HIP, we were able to organize and did a fundraiser back in March 50K. That's huge we also know there are impacts that also is beyond us, too. it was with this past, like, Hmong New Year [00:42:00] that we did, that we wanted to do a Hmong New Year action, an action to really fundraise for our families who were detained by ICE. And so we did a mutual aid fundraiser, asking our community members to donate money, and we were able to raise… we only did it for, like, three hours, and we were able to raise $700. So we're like, ” What if we kept going?” Right? And that's where our fundraiser for 50K came from. so there is, like, ways in which we are trying to organize and mobilize our communities. And, to be very honest is that HIP and, QVIP is not necessarily a direct service organization and not necessarily in that way. I think many of the times people see HIP as like, “Oh, you're here to save us,” we're not that, right? We're really here to mobilize with our community, uh, we have our youth organization over in Edison High School, they were pushed into a small classroom, storage room, actually, for band and also, sports as well. And so it, it was being disruptive a lot. one of our [00:43:00] previous, like, young adult members recognized that, and they were like, ” Sh-uh, Shy and HIP, Please, can y'all do something about this issue?” And we're like, “No.” But we'll do it with you, right? and so we came in, we taught them about organizing, and literally those youths were able to organize themselves to have a classroom now, they remember that. They hold onto that, right? Regardless if we were here or not, they will still be able to know that and hold onto And so it's very much like that as well with our members, is that we want them to be able to organize within among themselves without having the need of, of HIP and entities being able to, have the, have the solution for them Miata Tan : mm, that makes a lot of sense. Really being able to work with community and give them tools so then they can continue to build is something really powerful that, you do at both HIP and QHIP. I'm curious, with this very challenging political moment that we're living through, not only for queer and trans folks, but immigrant communities as [00:44:00] well, how are you holding this, this pain alongside, trying to also celebrate and honor your communities, um, and especially your queer and trans community members? Shai or Christine, Christine Thao : At HIP we have what is called third spaces, and third spaces are heart spaces. these are, spaces where our young people, they continue to, build their organizing. They get to organize with one another and with HIP, to hold space to build community, to build belongingness, To show up, be present, make connections. is also a space where our young people, they get to decompress as well, in a world where it feels so chaotic, we do a lot of, the hard stuff with organizing, but then organizing can be so fun. and our young people, they get to see both sides, right, get to experience that. What I'm holding onto is being [00:45:00] engaged and getting involved, it is, Um, How can we connect our young people, to our community partners, right? To make those connections, to build deeper, this year it looks like us, being more intentional about our capacity and who we are, building out with, um… I'm on, I'm currently on the planning community for Elk Grove Pride, and so, uh, our young people are also a part of that, where they get to lead a role, and create, spaces of celebration, right? there's A lot of different opportunities our young people are also involved in, and, it, it is that wanting our young people to, feel empowered to get involved in these spaces as well. Miata Tan : Yeah. Lovely. Thank you so much, Christine. It sounds like you're really able to create, a beautiful space and community for your young people. Shy, uh, to close out, I'd love to know what's on the horizon for QHIP. It's Pride Month. unfortunately this episode is airing after Fresno Pride, but, perhaps you could [00:46:00] speak a little bit to that and what else is on the horizon. Shai Chang: Sure thing. the first thing I need to say is Happy Pride Month. so Happy Pride Month, everyone. Fresno always hosts their Pride parade, always the first Saturday of, of the Pride month it is On Saturday, June 6. Pride parade over at Tower District in Fresno. it's gonna be very fun. It's super exciting. We will be marching in there all together, and the theme for this year is, Pride Without Border. we're gonna be Extra powerful in calling out all of the different, struggles that our intersectional folks are all facing and being able to march together in liberation. what's also coming up next is, I- I'm foreseeing it to happen probably next month or in August, is that we will have a third space event to really celebrate Pride. we spend all our energy to be part of the Pride parade preparing our members and supporting them, but we haven't necessarily celebrated QHIP's [00:47:00] own Pride, you know, we work very politically in election works, and so we always have a bunch of these like, door hangers, Vote yes on Prop 3,” things like that, right? And so we have so much of those paper, and so what we usually do during this, like, Pride event that we do in QHIP is that we- we use these as an opportunity for us to do trash drag. it's an opportunity for us to get glammed out everyone gets to participate creating this, like, image through the trash drag. And so we're excited to be able to do that, so please keep on the lookout. Miata Tan : Sorry, why is it called trash drag? I'd love to know. Shai Chang: It's because, like, we had s- you know, this much f- okay, we, we have a lot of flyers from the our elections, And especially this year. You know how in, in the mail you'll get so much, like, ” Vote for this person, vote for this person.” all of this is all paper that is then thrown away without any second thought. and we will make them, and we'll make, like, thousands of copies , right? But we never are able to pass it all out. what we do is that we will go ahead and reuse them one last time for [00:48:00] them to have an opportunity for them to shine, We'll have them split up into teams, and then use all the different trash that they can gather and use, and glue them, tape them , staple them to make a dress, to make an outfit for this one person that they're gonna designate to be the drag mother for their team. Miata Tan : I love that. That sounds like so much fun. Shai Chang: Yeah. We're gonna be doing it in Fresno and also in Sacramento, so we'll figure out a ways for everyone to be involved. Miata Tan : Oh, how wonderful. Christine, could you speak to what events are coming up in Sacramento for us? Christine Thao : We are also having, um, Elk Grove Pride on June 20th. It's from 5:00 to 9:00. it's gonna be at the Elk Grove Laguna Town Hall. And so community is very welcome to attend. It is a free event. Think of it like, kind of like a resource gathering with, um, some really amazing performances we have, a lot of like, BIPOC TQ, artistes, and then also vendors [00:49:00] as well. So please show up and, would love to, to meet folks and connect with folks in these spaces. Miata Tan : Beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing, Christine, and we'll be sharing all the details of how you can get involved and learn more about QHIP and HIP at the end of this episode as well. Thank you both so much for joining me today. Shai Chang: Thank you so much for having me. Miata Tan: That was my conversation with Shai Chang and Christine Thao at Queer Hmong Intersectional Pride, also known as QHIP Miata Tan : this is APEX Express on 94.1 KPFA, a weekly radio show uplifting the voices and stories of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. To close out tonight's show, I have one final guest. Cynthia Fong is the lead organizer at Lavender Phoenix, also known as LavNix, A Bay Area organization building power for queer and trans Asian and Pacific Islander communities. You may have heard of them. Their new executive director joined us on [00:50:00] air just a few months ago. Here's a short conversation with Cynthia Fong on Queer Joy, community power, and what LavNix has coming up this summer Cynthia Fong: Thank you so much for having us. My name is Cynthia. I use they/them pronouns, and I'm here with Lavender Phoenix. Lavender Phoenix, we build trans, non-binary, queer API power through organizing in the Bay Area. We work with our members to demand true solutions to care and safety, and we're excited to be here with you all. Miata Tan : I'm so excited to close out the episode with you. And as we're in Pride Month, I hoped you might be able to share a little bit about queer joy and how Lavender Phoenix is celebrating that at the moment, honoring each other. Cynthia Fong: Yeah, absolutely. Especially in times like this, times of escalated violence against our communities, we know that queer joy, queer resistance, and queer power are truly antidotes to the systems that are making us sick. For us, that means in our work, we fight for care not cops, [00:51:00] we fight for budgets that truly reflect the needs of our people, we fight for a free Palestine, and we fight to abolish ICE. If you agree with all of the things that I just said we also do a lot of leadership exchange programs, and that is where we really cultivate that belonging and community in our trans and queer API community. Miata Tan : Oh, I love that. Could you share a little bit more about the leadership exchange with our listeners? Cynthia Fong: Yeah, absolutely. This is one of our time-honored traditions. It's called the Queer Leadership Exchange, it's also known as LEX. And this program will run for two weekends in July. we aim to provide training on fundamental organizing skills, trans and queer history in the Bay Area, and really to provide an opportunity for trans and queer Asian and Pacific Islanders to connect with, with each other in a space that's made by and for us. We invite you to apply if you are trans or queer [00:52:00] and if you identify as Asian or Pacific Islander. Our deadline is July 1st. And in these two weekends, we usually gather with about 20 to 30 folks, and it's really interactive. We have a mix of activities that we invite people to, to skill up on and, and really to become the leaders that our movements need. Miata Tan : Love that. Could you share a little bit about some leaders you've seen come out of these programs? Like, what does that look like? How are they, helping to, to organize community? Cynthia Fong: the folks who graduate from our LEX program, it, it's really a wide range of people, whether it's trans and queer APIs at work in other nonprofit sectors. It's also our folks who may be supporting our community in other ways, like as artists, as students, educators, as therapists. We see a lot of people take these skills and translate them into a variety of different sectors that we know trans and queer API people… we're everywhere, more and more so now. And we would [00:53:00] love every single one of us to be grounded in our histories when we do that work. And not only our histories, but also in a firm sense of belonging with one another, to know that we're not alone, to know that there are other trans and queer Asians and Pacific Islanders here in the Bay Area, all of whom share these values of wanting to build working class power. Miata Tan : that's so nice, a more multi-generational, multi-sector, Cynthia Fong: And, you know, we take it as an opportunity, too, for us to build with other organizations and people who, who are like-minded. We don't take it for granted. We know the Bay Area is a place where it's very diverse, where We are actively fighting for what values we believe in and whose agenda we are willing to put in power. And so we really welcome a wide range of people. No matter where you are, the real important thing is you, you share our values. you believe in true solutions to care and safety that are not rooted in systems of policing or incarceration Miata Tan : [00:54:00] That's really powerful. to close this out , Could you share a little bit more about what's on the horizon for Lavender Phoenix later in the year? You mentioned a few of the campaigns, Care Not Cops. perhaps if you wanna dive into some of those. Cynthia Fong: Yeah, absolutely. Um, we are joining a really big coalition of people from Alameda to Sacramento to San Francisco, all of whom are paying a lot of attention to our budgets, when you say Care Not Cops, we see our budgets to really be that moral document that show us where our priorities are. For us, June is Pride Month, but it's also budget season, Um, it gives us a really big opportunity to be as loud as we can about what we believe. and in San Francisco with $16 billion, it's quite shameful that we have our community partners like the San Francisco Community Health Center, Lyric, our youth programs being defunded, all the while new jails are being opened, all the while the police are getting new toys, they're [00:55:00] showing us that the money exists but it's not for us. And so we join the voices that are demanding for a people's budget, and we know that that's gonna be an ongoing fight. We've been in it for a few years now, and we plan to continue. In terms of our organization, we're actually super excited to say we have 100% of our membership really diving into what the next five years looks like for us. Folks may remember we came onto APAICS to announce a name change a few years ago. We were formerly known as API Equality Northern California. We came on APAICS a few years ago to share that we've changed to Lavender Phoenix, and we anticipate some new changes on the horizon being announced at the end of the year as well, hopefully with deeper clarity about what the next five years will look like for us. Miata Tan : Ooh. Interesting. It's not a new name change, is it? Cynthia Fong: No, no. We, we're gonna stay… We're keeping the t- we're keeping our name. We love our name. We love the history in our name. But it's really just the theory of [00:56:00] change, you know? I think our moment today is very unique, very different, very politically tumultuous, and we wanna be sharp. We wanna know what we're organizing for, what we're organizing against, and, and what it means for us to build power. Our last theory of change process is what resulted in us focusing on leadership programs, leadership development. It is also where we decided that healing is really important for our people. It's also where we decided that safety is really important for our people. And so I anticipate that it's gonna be a deepening not, not a change, but a deepening of how we orient to this bigger picture of our movement for liberation and justice. Miata Tan : So beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing, Cynthia. Um, it was really lovely to speak with you. Cynthia Fong: Yeah, absolutely. Thank you so much. I, hope to come Back soon. Miata Tan : That was Cynthia Fong with Lavender Phoenix. If you want to learn more about LavNix, we sat down with their team earlier in the year.

One city, a divided country, and the war that tore America apart. Saigon is an epic saga of love, blood and revolution starring Kelly Marie Tran and Rob Benedict. An eight-part audio drama for iHeart adapted from the best-selling novel by Anthony Grey, it is a story of political intrigue and romance in a time of war, across four tumultuous decades of Vietnamese history.Narrated by Trinh, the granddaughter of two central characters, the series begins in 1936 French-colonial Saigon, where an American journalist, Joseph, reunites with his childhood friend Paul, now a French policeman, and encounters Lan, the woman who will shape his destiny. Against a backdrop of tennis courts, luxury hotels, and colonial privilege, simmering tensions erupt as Lan's brother Tran rejects his wealthy family's collaboration with the French to join Ho Chi Minh's revolutionary cause, setting off an assassination that changes everything. As love, betrayal, and shifting allegiances entangle Joseph, Lan, Paul, and Tran, the drama follows them through World War II, Japanese occupation, the rise of Vietnamese nationalism, and America's war in Vietnam, tracing how personal passions and family loyalties are swept into the tides of history.Episodes available here:https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-saigon-330079751/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Ngày 07/04/2026, tổng bí thư Đảng kiêm chủ tịch nước Tô Lâm đã ký quyết định phê chuẩn Công ước của Liên Hiệp Quốc về chống tội phạm mạng (Công ước Hà Nội), đưa Việt Nam trở thành quốc gia đầu tiên ở Đông Nam Á và là nước thứ hai trên thế giới chính thức phê chuẩn Công ước này. Công ước mang tên Hà Nội là vì lễ ký Công ước của Liên Hiệp Quốc về chống tội phạm mạng đã được tổ chức tại Hà Nội vào tháng 10/2025. Cho tới nay đã có 75 quốc gia ký công ước này. Tuy nhiên, Công ước Hà Nội sẽ chỉ có hiệu lực một khi có đủ 40 quốc gia chính thức phê chuẩn để trở thành thành viên chính thức. Đông Nam Á nói chung và Việt Nam nói riêng đang ngày càng trở thành một trong những trung tâm của tội phạm mạng trên thế giới. Trong một bài viết đăng trên mạng ngày 09/03/2026, công ty Okta, chuyên về quản lý danh tính ( Identity Management ), cho biết: “Một hệ sinh thái tội phạm mạng rộng lớn bắt nguồn từ Việt Nam đã được liên kết với các chiến dịch đăng ký tài khoản giả mạo quy mô lớn nhắm vào các nhà cung cấp dịch vụ và nền tảng trực tuyến trên toàn thế giới. Các nhà nghiên cứu đã truy tìm hoạt động này đến một cụm cơ sở hạ tầng được đặt tên nội bộ là O-UNC-036, sử dụng địa chỉ email dùng một lần và bot tự động để tạo ra các danh tính kỹ thuật số giả mạo ở quy mô đáng báo động.” Theo công ty này, các tội phạm sử dụng những tài khoản trực tuyến gian lận như một cánh cửa để thực hiện các hoạt động tội phạm tài chính, từ thư rác và lừa đảo trực tuyến đến các vụ lừa đảo cá nhân. Các tổ chức tội phạm có tổ chức ở Đông Nam Á, đặc biệt là ở khu vực gần biên giới Trung Quốc, Miến Điện, Thái Lan và Cam Bốt dùng những thủ đoạn này để dụ dỗ nạn nhân vào các vụ lừa đảo tiền điện tử, lừa đảo tình cảm và tống tiền tình dục,... Các nhà phân tích của Okta đã xác định được một lượng lớn các đăng ký tài khoản đáng ngờ liên kết với nhiều tên miền email dùng một lần, trở thành sợi dây liên kết quan trọng giữa hoạt động này với một thị trường lừa đảo rộng lớn hơn có trụ sở tại Việt Nam. Thiệt hại về tài chính từ hoạt động này là rất lớn. Trong một báo cáo tháng 4/2025, Văn phòng Liên Hiệp Quốc về Ma túy và Tội phạm (UNODC) đã chỉ ra rằng thị trường ngầm này hiện có những người chuyên buôn bán bộ công cụ lừa đảo, dữ liệu bị đánh cắp, phần mềm độc hại, công cụ dựa trên trí tuệ nhân tạo (AI) và dịch vụ rửa tiền được sử dụng để nhắm mục tiêu vào các nạn nhân trên toàn cầu. Chính là để phòng chống những hoạt động lừa đảo trực tuyến như trên mà Công ước Hà Nội thiết lập một khuôn khổ pháp lý quốc tế toàn diện về phòng ngừa, phát hiện, điều tra, truy tố và hợp tác quốc tế trong xử lý tội phạm mạng. Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ ngày 22/05/2026, nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải, giảng viên Trường Tư pháp hình sự và tội phạm học Griffith, Úc và là chủ tịch Hội đồng nghiên cứu về tội phạm ma túy tại châu Á của Viện nghiên cứu AICS (Hoa Kỳ), cho biết Việt Nam đã chuẩn bị như thế nào cho việc tham gia Công ước Hà Nội : "Thứ nhất là Việt Nam đã hoàn thiện khung pháp lý nội địa, đặc biệt là trong các lĩnh vực an ninh mạng, bảo vệ dữ liệu và xử lý chứng cứ điện tử. Có thể nói rằng trong những năm trở lại đây, Quốc Hội của Việt Nam và các cơ quan, trong đó có vai trò rất là lớn bộ Công An Việt Nam, đã điều chỉnh, bổ sung và ban hành các luật, khung pháp lý nội địa rất kịp thời trong lĩnh vực an ninh mạng và xử lý điện tử, chứng cứ điện tử. Thứ hai là Việt Nam đã chuẩn bị khá kỹ trong việc nâng cao năng lực thực thi pháp luật, đặc biệt là đào tạo chuyên sâu cho các lực lượng điều tra tội phạm công nghệ cao. Song song với đó, đầu tư vào các hệ thống cơ sở hạ tầng số cũng rất là ổn định để kịp thời trước lúc tham gia Công ước Hà Nội. Thứ ba là tăng cường hợp tác quốc tế thông qua các cơ chế song phương, đa phương mà Việt Nam đã tham gia. Việt Nam không tham gia Công ước Hà Nội một cách hình thức mà đang từng bước thích nghi với các chuẩn mực toàn cầu về quản trị an ninh mạng và phòng chống tội phạm công nghệ cao." Công ước Hà Nội quy định đầy đủ các vấn đề từ hình sự hóa hành vi phạm tội, thẩm quyền điều tra, dẫn độ, tương trợ tư pháp, đến bảo vệ dữ liệu cá nhân. Các hành vi như truy cập trái phép, đánh cắp dữ liệu, gian lận điện tử, tấn công cơ sở hạ tầng trọng yếu, sử dụng không gian mạng để tài trợ khủng bố hay rửa tiền bằng tài sản số đều được định danh rõ ràng. Quan trọng hơn, Công ước tạo ra “chuẩn mực pháp lý chung”, giúp các quốc gia phối hợp hiệu quả trong xử lý các vụ án xuyên biên giới. Việc tham gia Công ước giúp Việt Nam có thêm công cụ pháp lý quan trọng để nâng cao hiệu quả phòng ngừa, phát hiện, điều tra và xử lý tội phạm mạng. Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ, nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải giải thích: "Công ước Hà Nội quy định rất toàn diện các vấn đề về hình sự hóa tội phạm mạng, thẩm quyền điều tra, hợp tác quốc tế, dẫn độ, hỗ trợ tư pháp và bảo vệ dữ liệu và cá nhân. Công ước mang lại cho Việt Nam một số công cụ pháp lý rất quan trọng, đáng chú ý ở đây là chia sẻ thông tin và chứng cứ điện tử nhanh hơn giữa các quốc gia. Có thể nói đây là một trong những yếu tố then chốt trong điều tra tội phạm mạng xuyên biên giới. Ngoài ra, Công ước Hà Nội còn hỗ trợ cho phía Việt Nam và các cơ quan tư pháp hình sự của Việt Nam hài hòa các định nghĩa, các cách tiếp cận về pháp lý liên quan đến tội phạm mạng giữa các quốc gia. Thứ hai là tăng cường cơ chế tương trợ tư pháp và dẫn độ khi triển khai Công ước Hà Nội. Thứ ba là Công ước này sẽ hỗ trợ trực tiếp các cuộc điều tra chung. Khi được thông qua, Công ước Hà Nội sẽ có thêm cơ sở pháp lý, hành lang pháp lý cụ thể và chính thống để tiến hành các cuộc điều tra chung, thành lập các đội điều tra chung ( investigation teams ) giữa các nước trong khu vực và thế giới, khi phát sinh các yếu tố liên quan đến phòng chống tội phạm mạng, đặc biệt là trong các vụ lừa đảo xuyên quốc gia và rửa tiền kỹ thuật số. Điều này giúp đáng kể khoảng trống pháp lý mà tội phạm mạng thường lợi dụng. Hiện nay không gian mạng rất khó kiểm soát và không có biên giới." Những công cụ mới mà Công ước Hà Nội mang lại sẽ tác động như thế nào đến việc phòng chống tội phạm mạng ở Việt Nam, nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải dự báo: "Ở đây ta có thể tiếp cận từ hai góc độ. Góc độ thứ nhất là tác động của Công ước Hà Nội đối với Việt Nam. Góc độ thứ hai là tác động của Công ước Hà Nội đối với các đối tác của Việt Nam trong khu vực và trên thế giới. Đầu tiên là trong nước, Công ước Hà Nội sẽ giúp cho Việt Nam, cụ thể là các cơ quan chức năng như bộ Công An hoặc bộ Thông Tin Truyền Thông, chuẩn hóa quy trình điều tra và xử lý tội phạm mạng, vừa bám theo Công ước Hà Nội, vừa nội hóa các luật nội địa Việt Nam đã ban hành, ví dụ như Luật an ninh mạng và gần đây nhất là luật về trí tuệ nhân tạo AI. Nó sẽ giúp chuẩn hóa quy trình điều tra và xử lý tội phạm liên quan đến không gian mạng, đồng thời nâng cao tính minh bạch và hiệu quả trong thu thập chứng cứ điện tử, thúc đẩy cách tiếp cận dựa trên dữ liệu và bằng chứng trong thực thi pháp luật của các cơ quan ở Việt Nam. Cấp độ thứ hai là với các đối tác của Việt Nam trong khu vực ASEAN, cũng như các nước ngoài ASEAN, trong đó có Úc, Châu Âu, hay Mỹ. Ở cấp độ xuyên quốc gia, tác động sẽ rõ nét hơn. Công ước tạo nền tảng cho việc phối hợp hành động nhanh hơn giữa các quốc gia, đặc biệt là trong việc truy xét dòng tiền, xác định máy chủ và triệt phá các mạng lưới tội phạm hoạt động ở nhiều quốc gia cùng một lúc trên không gian mạng. Tuy nhiên ở đây tôi cũng cần lưu ý rằng hiệu quả thực sự sẽ phụ thuộc rất nhiều vào mức độ thực thi và niềm tin giữa các quốc gia. Bởi vì xây dựng niềm tin pháp lý, chia sẻ thông tin ở không gian mạng hiện nay có lúc vẫn bị nhiều nước, trong đó có Việt Nam, đánh giá là những vấn đề nhạy cảm. Việc chia sẻ giữa các đối tác trong khu vực và ngoài khu vực đều có những hạn chế nhất định. Thậm chí nhiều lúc chưa có sự tin tưởng một cách tuyệt đối." Trong việc phòng chống tội phạm mạng, Việt Nam từ nhiều năm qua vẫn có sự hỗ trợ của Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc ( AFP ). Tháng 5/2026, Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc đã phối hợp với bộ Công An Việt Nam và cảnh sát các nước Đông Nam Á khác tổ chức một hội thảo ở Đà Nẵng về nâng cao hợp tác giữa các bên trong lĩnh vực. Là một trong những người tham gia hội thảo, nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải cho biết: "Hiện nay Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc ( AFP ) có một hệ thống sĩ quan liên lạc cảnh sát quốc tế phủ rộng toàn cầu, trong đó có Việt Nam. Văn phòng Việt Nam đã mở hơn 20 năm nay. Có thể nói, theo đánh giá của cá nhân tôi, văn phòng đại diện sĩ quan liên lạc cảnh sát Úc ở Việt Nam đã đóng một vai trò rất lớn là một cầu nối quan trọng để kết nối lực lượng thực thi pháp luật của hai nước trong việc cập nhật, trao đổi thông tin, phối hợp điều tra, xử lý, dẫn độ cũng như giải quyết các vụ án mang tính chất xuyên quốc gia. Sự kiện ở Đà Nẵng có ba nội dung trọng tâm mà hiện nay Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc nâng cao hiệu quả hợp tác với đối tác Việt Nam. Thứ nhất là chia sẻ thông tin tình báo và dữ liệu tội phạm mạng, một trong những điểm rất quan trọng. Hội thảo vừa rồi cũng đánh giá cao sự chia sẻ giữa các đối tác trong khu vực ASEAN và lực lượng cảnh sát Úc. Thứ hai là hỗ trợ đào tạo và nâng cao năng lực cho lực lượng thực thi pháp luật ở Việt Nam, thông qua nhiều kênh khác nhau, ví dụ như kênh về chương trình đào tạo quản lý lực lượng thực thi pháp luật khu vực châu Á - Thái Bình Dương, được tổ chức thường niên mỗi năm khoảng hai đến ba khóa, tùy vào các chủ đề liên quan đến tội phạm xuyên quốc gia. Những năm gần đây ưu tiên đặc biệt là các vụ lừa đảo scam qua mạng ( scam ) rất là nhiều. Qua kênh đào tạo này thì hiện đã có hơn 1000 cán bộ thực thi pháp luật, trong đó có nhiều cán bộ của Việt Nam đã được đào tạo cùng với các nước ASEAN và khu vực Châu Á Thái Bình Dương. Chính điểm thứ hai này đã tạo ra được một lực lượng rất là thiện chiến trong phòng chống tội phạm mạng và các vấn đề liên quan đến an ninh mạng cho phía Việt Nam mà phía Úc đã hỗ trợ. Hợp tác thứ ba nữa mà tại diễn đàn này tôi cũng đã tập trung trao đổi, đó là chia sẻ những kinh nghiệm, phương thức, chiến thuật, các hoạt động phối hợp điều tra các vụ án xuyên biên giới, đặc biệt liên quan đến các vụ lừa đảo trực tuyến, rửa tiền số và bóc lột lao động trong các đường dây lừa đảo. Có thể nói trong bối cảnh Đông Nam Á đang nổi lên như một điểm nóng của các trung tâm lừa đảo xuyên quốc gia, hợp tác Việt Nam và Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc đóng một cái vai trò quan trọng không chỉ ở khía cạnh thực thi pháp luật, mà còn trong việc chia sẻ các kinh nghiệm thực chiến và xây dựng các chiến lược phòng ngừa mang tính nhất dài hạn."

VOV1 - Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) do Việt Nam đăng cai tổ chức bước sang năm thứ 3, đã khẳng định vị thế là nền tảng đối thoại chiến lược, nơi định hình lộ trình phát triển bền vững cho khu vực đến năm 2045 và xa hơn nữa.“Với vai trò chủ nhà, Việt Nam không chỉ thể hiện năng lực tổ chức xuất sắc mà còn dẫn dắt hiệu quả các cuộc thảo luận đa phương về hòa bình và đổi mới” - Đây là đánh giá của bạn bè quốc tế dành cho Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) cũng như vai trò và vị thế của Việt Nam. Trực tiếp tham gia và tháp tùng Tổng thống José Ramos-Horta trình bày bài phát biểu chính vào năm ngoái, Đại sứ Timor-Leste tại Việt Nam João Pereira đánh giá, điểm nổi bật của Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) 2026 là việc mở rộng quy mô thảo luận sang các đại diện chính đảng và lãnh đạo các thành phố trong khu vực, tạo nên các cuộc đối thoại đa dạng giữa lãnh đạo ASEAN và các đối tác.“Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) không chỉ là một cuộc họp thông thường mà là một nền tảng đối thoại thu hút nhiều kênh đại diện khác nhau; thúc đẩy tư duy hướng về tương lai trước các thách thức dài hạn như an ninh, chuyển đổi số và phát triển bền vững”. Với Đại sứ Timor-Leste, đây là nền tảng mạnh mẽ để quy tụ các tầm nhìn, chính sách và chiến lược, giúp các nhà lãnh đạo cùng nhau xác lập cam kết cho Tầm nhìn ASEAN 2045 và chủ động ứng phó với các bất ổn khu vực cũng như toàn cầu hiện nay.Cùng quan điểm, Đại sứ Philippines tại Việt Nam Francisco Noel R. Fernandez III nhận định, trong khi các hội nghị truyền thống thường tập trung xử lý các vấn đề hiện tại, Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) mang sứ mệnh thảo luận về những gì sẽ diễn ra trong tương lai. Đồng thời, việc đăng cai AFF đã khẳng định vị thế ngày càng quan trọng của Việt Nam trong các diễn đàn đa phương.“Việc Việt Nam duy trì đăng cai tổ chức Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) không chỉ khẳng định vị thế dẫn dắt mà còn đặt ra yêu cầu quan trọng cho các nhà lãnh đạo: phải nhìn nhận nghiêm túc về lộ trình tương lai của khối trong 10-20 năm tới, nhất là khi khối đã có thêm thành viên thứ 11 là Timor-Leste”. Theo Đại sứ Philippines, Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN sẽ tăng cường hơn nữa năng lực dự báo chiến lược của ASEAN, vốn đã được chứng minh thông qua việc thiết lập khung pháp lý chia sẻ năng lượng và kết nối lưới điện trước các biến động toàn cầu thời gian qua. Đại sứ cũng đề cao sự tin cậy lẫn nhau, khẳng định sức mạnh ASEAN nằm ở sự đoàn kết, không quốc gia nào phải đơn độc trước khó khăn - những giá trị sẽ tiếp tục được nhấn mạnh tại Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN năm nay.Đánh giá cao không gian đối thoại mở và bao trùm mà Việt Nam kiến tạo, Đại sứ Thái Lan Urawadee Sriphiromya lại đặc biệt ấn tượng với chủ đề của Diễn đàn năm nay: “Tôi đặc biệt ấn tượng với chủ đề của diễn đàn năm 2026: “Cùng nhau kiến tạo tương lai chung: Hòa bình, Thịnh vượng và Phát triển lấy con người làm trung tâm”. Chủ đề này rất phù hợp với bối cảnh hiện nay, khi chúng ta cần phải đặt người dân vào vị trí trung tâm của mọi quá trình phát triển”.Đại sứ Thái Lan cũng hoan nghênh vai trò của Hà Nội khi lần đầu tiên đăng cai Hội nghị Lãnh đạo các Thành phố ASEAN. Theo Đại sứ, Hà Nội đang sở hữu vị thế thuận lợi khi vừa đạt tiến bộ lớn trong hiện đại hóa đô thị, quản trị số, vừa bảo tồn được bản sắc văn hóa lâu đời. Sự kiện này chứng minh cam kết của Việt Nam trong việc thúc đẩy hợp tác thực chất giữa các đô thị, mang lại lợi ích trực tiếp cho người dân trong nhiều năm tới./.Phương HoaĐại sứ Timor-Leste tại Việt Nam João Pereira
VOV1 - “Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) 2026 diễn ra tại Hà Nội không chỉ là không gian thảo luận chiến lược mà còn khẳng định vị thế ngày càng tăng của Việt Nam trong khu vực”.Đại sứ Vương quốc Thái Lan tại Việt Nam Urawadee Sriphiromya đánh giá cao sáng kiến của Việt Nam, đồng thời nhấn mạnh tầm quan trọng của quan hệ Đối tác Chiến lược Toàn diện Thái Lan - Việt Nam trong việc xây dựng một Cộng đồng ASEAN tự cường, đổi mới và luôn lấy người dân làm trung tâm.

GEODIS Brings an End-User View of Cisco Infrastructure Modernization to Cisco Live, Podcast, GEODIS shares how Cisco IQ, Cisco Services and SD-WAN are helping a global logistics company move from reactive IT to proactive lifecycle management By Doug Green “I'm just a guy in IT that's using an extraordinary product that I feel deserves the attention that it's getting.” In this Cisco Live podcast, I spoke with Scott Malone, Vice President of IT Infrastructure for GEODIS, about how a global supply chain and logistics company is using Cisco technology to strengthen visibility, resilience and operational control across a complex enterprise environment. GEODIS is an end-to-end supply chain company supporting freight forwarding, contract logistics, distribution, express delivery and road transport. For a company operating across multiple lines of business and global markets, infrastructure reliability is not just an IT concern. It is part of the company's ability to serve customers and keep logistics operations moving. Malone brought a valuable end-user perspective to the conversation. Speaking shortly after presenting on stage at Cisco Live, he described GEODIS as a company working to modernize critical IT infrastructure while giving teams better tools to understand, manage and secure the environment. A central theme of the discussion was the shift from reactive maintenance to proactive lifecycle management. Through Cisco IQ, GEODIS has gained greater visibility into infrastructure health, vulnerabilities and areas requiring attention. That insight helps the IT team prioritize work, focus resources and move faster on remediation. Malone also discussed how GEODIS is working with Cisco Services and Cisco SD-WAN to build a more resilient architecture. The company's goal is to support high availability across a distributed footprint while continuing to modernize remote access and LAN core infrastructure. For Technology Reseller News readers, the GEODIS story offers a clear look at what enterprise IT buyers value in today's environment: visibility, security, uptime, lifecycle intelligence and trusted support. The conversation also shows how Cisco's broader portfolio can help large organizations move beyond point solutions toward a more proactive operating model. As logistics, data, applications and customer expectations become increasingly dependent on always-available networks, GEODIS provides a practical example of how infrastructure modernization is becoming a business requirement.

We concluded the last episode with Jeff Kripal calling upon humanities scholars to break out of our conservative paradigms and to allow ourselves to “get weird.” So, let's do it! This season, we are going all-in on the mystical, mysterious, profound, reality-bending, and impossible aspects of Asian religions, medicines, and spiritualities.As usual, we'll launch the season the tables turned, with Lan taking up the mic to interview Pierce. Together, we think about traditional, modern, and postmodern approaches to Asian medicine. Usually, these epistemologies are competing or people are trying to integrate them… but could there be another approach that celebrates all of them without needing to reconcile dissonance?If you want to hear scholars and practitioners engaging in multidisciplinary conversations about Asian healing and mystical traditions, then subscribe to Black Beryl wherever you get your podcasts.

VOV1 - Từ hôm nay (1/6), Việt Nam chính thức bước vào một giai đoạn mới trong lộ trình chuyển đổi năng lượng khi phần lớn xăng không chì lưu thông trên thị trường sẽ được phối trộn thành xăng sinh học E10.Đây được xem là thay đổi lớn nhất của thị trường xăng dầu trong nhiều năm qua, là bước cụ thể hóa, nhất quán đường lối của Đảng, Nhà nước ta về phát triển năng lượng xanh, xây dựng nền kinh tế tuần hoàn và giảm phát thải.Tuy nhiên trước thời điểm áp dụng xăng E10, vẫn còn không ít băn khoăn: liệu loại nhiên liệu mới này có ảnh hưởng tới động cơ? Người tiêu dùng có phải thay đổi cách sử dụng xe? Và các quốc gia khác đã trải qua quá trình chuyển đổi này như thế nào? Trong Câu chuyện thời sự hôm nay, chúng ta sẽ cùng kết nối với các phóng viên thường trú tại nhiều quốc gia để nghe những câu chuyện về quá trình đưa xăng E10 vào lưu hành trên thị trường. Bởi thực tế từ nhiều năm nay, Mỹ, Brazil, Đức, Anh hay Thái Lan đã sử dụng loại nhiên liệu này từ nhiều năm nay. Thậm chí, có quốc gia còn tiến xa hơn với E20 hay E85 trong nỗ lực giảm phát thải và thúc đẩy nền kinh tế xanh.Từ 1/6/2026, xăng E10 sẽ chính thức được triển khai trên phạm vi toàn quốc

Neste episódio do podcast De Volta Para o Sofá, nós rebobinamos a fita até o ano de 1995 para revisitarmos "Mortal Kombat", primeira adaptação para o cinema do popular jogo de luta. O filme tem direção de Paul W.S. Anderson (que mais tarde também levaria "Resident Evil" para a telona) e no elenco principal estão Robin Shou (Liu Kang), Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (Shang-Tsung), Christopher Lambert (Rayden), Bridgette Wilson (Sonya Blade), Linden Ashby (Johnny Cage) e Talisa Soto (Kitana). Prepare o seu Fatality e aperte o play para revisitar "Mortal Kombat" com a gente! Venha descobrir se o filme ainda é tão marcante quanto na época em que o vimos pela primeira vez. Confira abaixo a minutagem dos quadros do podcast: 00:00:00 - Introdução 00:01:23 - Memória Afetiva: quando vimos o filme pela primeira vez e como foi revê-lo agora? 00:22:02 - Almanaque: uma coleção de informações, reflexões e curiosidades 00:44:12 - Deu Tilt: aspectos que ficaram datados ou cenas que não funcionam mais 01:03:53 - Momento Supra Sumo: nossas cenas favoritas 01:14:59 - Por Onde Anda: saiba o que o elenco principal está fazendo hoje em dia 01:38:17 - Música de Encerramento - Visite a página do podcast no site e confira material extra sobre o tema do episódio - Junte-se ao Cineclube Cinematório e tenha acesso a conteúdo exclusivo de cinema Em "Mortal Kombat", três relutantes lutadores -- Liu Kang, Sonya Blade e Johnny Cage -- são enviados para uma ilha remota onde enfrentarão adversários perigosos em um torneio no qual o destino da Terra está em jogo. Com a ajuda do poderoso Lord Rayden, eles terão que passar por combates mortais até chegarem ao confronto final contra o temido feiticeiro Shang-Tsung. Lançado quando os jogos de "Mortal Kombat" já eram uma febre mundial, o filme fez sucesso de bilheteria, mas foi alvo de críticas por retirar quase que integralmente a violência extrema e o sangue que fizeram a fama do game e o tornaram o principal concorrente de "Street Fighter" nos fliperamas. O longa teve uma continuação, "Mortal Kombat - A Aniquilação" (1997), e mais tarde a franquia ganhou séries de TV e um reboot no cinema, em 2021. No podcast, nós relembramos quando assistimos a "Mortal Kombat" pela primeira vez e você conhece diversas curiosidades sobre a produção. O programa traz ainda o quadro "Deu Tilt", no qual nós listamos aspectos ou cenas que não funcionaram na revisão do filme, e o "Momento Supra Sumo", quando nós elegemos nossas cenas favoritas. Você também fica sabendo por onde andam os principais integrantes do elenco. O De Volta Para o Sofá é produzido e apresentado por Renato Silveira e Kel Gomes, editores do cinematório.

Sometimes it's not the big moments that shape our relationships most . . . it's the little patterns we fall into without even realizing it.In this episode, we focus on the small shifts that can quietly change a relationship over time: the assumptions we make, the way busyness pulls us apart, and why people can genuinely care about each other and still miss what the other person actually needs.It's an honest, real-life conversation about connection, communication, grace, and learning to love people a little better in the middle of everyday life. We lean into the importance of staying tuned in to God — because sometimes His quiet nudges are what lead us toward more patience, more understanding, and a softer response than the one we were about to give.There's humor, perspective, a few “ouch, that's true” moments, and plenty of encouragement for anyone who wants healthier, deeper, more connected relationships without feeling like you need a complete life overhaul.Listen now and maybe even share it with someone who's been on your heart lately.Send us Fan MailFor more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF, visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.

What is it about midlife that makes you question things you never used to think twice about: your purpose, your energy, your priorities? There are the challenges: changing energy, menopause, body shifts, changing roles, and even moments where you barely recognize yourself. BUT there's also something unexpectedly meaningful happening beneath the surface.In this conversation, we talk about rediscovering parts of yourself that may have gotten buried under years of responsibility, learning to let go of other people's expectations, and recognizing that God may still be leading you into new things.Honest, practical, encouraging, and deeply relatable, this episode speaks to anyone navigating this season of life. From fatigue and identity shifts to confidence, peace, and rediscovering joy, Lanee and Sandy explore what it looks like to move through midlife with openness instead of fear—while sharing plenty of helpful tips and insight along the way.If you've ever wondered whether this season could hold more than just clichés and survival mode, this episode is for you. Press play, join the conversation, and maybe even begin to see midlife in a completely new light.Send us Fan MailFor more info on IMAGINE YOURSELF, visit imagineyourselfpodcast.com.
