Donald Trump is being taunted: if he backs down on his demand that Iran restrict its ballistic missiles program he will lose face in the Middle East. Janice believes that if Iran agrees to a deal that pauses its nuclear weapons program indefinitely Trump should take it and claim a big win. In the second half of the show Rudyard and Janice turn to the big finance news of the week - specifically the mass selloff in software stocks that wiped one trillion dollars from the stock market due to the release of new AI bots that can automate legal and financial services. How can software companies survive in this environment? Why was the market response to these AI bots so severe? This is a signal to how new technologies are coming for white collar jobs in a way that we can't even imagine. Are policymakers working on a response to how radical this job dislocation will be to our economy?

We're at a critical moment in education. New research and emerging technologies, such as Generative AI, have the potential to reshape how we teach and learn. With decades of leadership in education technology, Dell Technologies is supporting schools in this transformation – equipping students and educators with tools and programs designed for the AI era, ensuring they are prepared for the opportunities ahead. This commitment is reflected in Dell's expanded education portfolio – including new Dell Pro Education and Dell Chromebook devices – alongside programs that help prepare students for the future. These new PCs are purpose-built for modern learning environments: durable enough to withstand the school day, serviceable enough to maximise institutional investment and powerful enough to support the curricula. Expanding the Portfolio: New Purpose-Built Devices for Education Dell is expanding its education portfolio with new devices designed to meet the diverse needs of modern learning environments. These PCs are engineered for the realities of student life – ruggedised to military standards (MIL-STD 810H) with reinforced corners, spill-resistant keyboards and 180-degree lay-flat hinges tested to withstand tens of thousands of cycles. Powered by Intel N-Series processors, they deliver all-school day battery life and the performance modern curricula demand. Serviceability is built in from the start, with customer-replaceable batteries, shared parts across models and up to five years of warranty coverage to maximise investments and reduce e-waste. Wi-Fi 6E connectivity, built-in security and robust device management give IT teams the tools they need to deploy and support technology at scale, while Dell's Managed IT Services offer schools 24/7 monitoring, proactive issue resolution and dedicated support options. The lineup includes: Dell Pro Education 11 Laptop & 2-in-1 (Windows OS): Compact and lightweight with optional touch capability, ideal for younger students. Dell Pro Education 14 Laptop (Windows OS) and Dell Chromebook 14 Laptop (Chrome OS): New 14-inch additions to the portfolio offer larger screen real estate for multitasking, well-suited for high school students. Schools can choose the operating system that best fits their environment and curriculum needs. This expanded portfolio joins the Dell Chromebook 11, launched late last year, giving schools more choice in how they equip their students and staff. Shaping the Future Through Education Programs & Partnerships Beyond technology solutions, Dell has focused on making a lasting impact through collaboration with educators, non-profits, and community leaders to foster critical skills for the digital era. Recent examples include: Student TechCrew (U.S.): A program that helps schools create a student-led helpdesk, teaching 9th -12th graders about technology and repair while supporting peers and school staff with tech issues. Learn how to start a Student TechCrew chapter at your school here. Girls Who Game (U.S./Global): Fosters early interest in STEM fields while building leadership and critical thinking skills. This program was developed in partnership with Microsoft and Intel. Learn more about Girls Who Game here. Tech Career Circuit (Global): In partnership with Discovery Education, this initiative equips students in grades 6-12 with complementary hands-on resources, digital skills and AI-focused learning to prepare for in-demand IT careers. Access the Tech Career Circuit resources here. Data Dunkers (Canada): A program that uses basketball statistics to teach students in grades 5-12 data science and AI skills, fostering critical thinking and career exploration. Learn more about how to bring Data Dunkers to your school here.

Welcome to a brand new series here on the podcast I'm calling "On Becoming: The Art and Craft of Personal Storytelling." In this series, we'll dig deep into college essays from past students, talking about why we love them and how they came to be.  For me, this title "On Becoming" speaks not just to the craft of writing (how a story came to be), but to what I believe the personal statement is at its best: a record of becoming… the beautiful, sometimes messy process of witnessing someone learn to better understand themselves, articulate their values, and claim their voice in the world. Whether you're a student, parent, educator, or just someone who loves great stories, we hope there's something here for you. In our first episode, I sit down with Amanda McRaven, a dear friend and one of my first hires at College Essay Guy. In this episode, we dig into: Two of our favorite essays from former students A little behind the scenes of how they came to be, and The techniques that helped these stories reveal truths about the students who wrote them.  Amanda McRaven is an artist, teacher, theater director, and storyteller living in the Pacific Northwest. She's a veteran educator and writer with over 15 years of experience coaching students through the college essay process. But what really sets Amanda apart is her approach. She helps students mine their lives for meaning—to find the gold in seemingly ordinary moments, and to connect the dots between experiences in ways that feel alive, honest, and deeply human.  We hope you enjoy!   Play-by-Play: 3:20 – Something these two essays have in common 4:32 – How does Amanda help students find creative ways to tell their stories?  5:50 – What did early drafts of the "My Desk" essay look like?  6:45 – Amanda and Ethan analyze the intro paragraph of the "My Desk" essay   13:24 – Analysis of paragraph 2 – Laptop 19:30 – Analysis of paragraph 3 – Stack of books 26:11 – Analysis of paragraph 4 – Bead Bracelet 31:59 – Analysis of the final paragraph – Conclusion  34:49 – Ethan introduces the "Magic" essay 41:30 – What did the student's writing process look like for the "Magic" essay?  47:55 – How does the author incorporate values and extracurricular activities together with the topic?  51:22 – How can students find more uncommon connections or topics to write about in their essays? 56:20 – What can students take away from the "Magic" essay?  58:34 – What does Amanda enjoy most about working with students on essays?  1:00:13 – Closing thoughts    Resources: "My Desk" Essay "Magic" Essay College Essay Essentials  College Essay Guy's Personal Statement Resources College Essay Guy's College Application Hub

Fluent Fiction - Italian: When Laptops Swap: Serendipity Brews in Trastevere Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/it/episode/2026-02-01-23-34-02-it Story Transcript:It: Il sole invernale splendeva sul quartiere di Trastevere, dove un piccolo caffè era nascosto tra le strade strette di Roma.En: The winter sun was shining on the quartiere di Trastevere, where a small café was hidden among the narrow streets of Roma.It: Era un luogo perfetto per chi cercava una pausa tranquilla dal ritmo frenetico della città.En: It was a perfect place for those seeking a quiet break from the fast pace of the city.It: Dentro, l'aroma del caffè riempiva l'aria, mentre i clienti chiacchieravano e sorseggiavano i loro espressi.En: Inside, the aroma of coffee filled the air, while the patrons chatted and sipped their espressos.It: Lorenzo, un artista dal cuore d'oro e dalla testa tra le nuvole, sedeva a un tavolino, immerso nei suoi pensieri.En: Lorenzo, an artist with a heart of gold and his head in the clouds, sat at a little table, lost in his thoughts.It: Aveva appena finito di sistemare i suoi disegni, quando Paolo, il suo amico che lavorava al caffè, gli portò un cappuccino.En: He had just finished organizing his drawings when Paolo, his friend who worked at the café, brought him a cappuccino.It: "Grazie, Paolo," disse Lorenzo distrattamente, sfogliando il suo sketchbook.En: "Grazie, Paolo," said Lorenzo distractedly, flipping through his sketchbook.It: Nel frattempo, Giulia, una donna d'affari precisa e organizzata, entrò nel caffè in cerca di un tavolo libero.En: Meanwhile, Giulia, a precise and organized businesswoman, entered the café looking for a free table.It: Aveva un'importante riunione più tardi e stava facendo gli ultimi controlli sulla sua presentazione.En: She had an important meeting later and was making the last checks on her presentation.It: Si sedette accanto al tavolo di Lorenzo, senza notare i suoi disegni sulla sua destra.En: She sat down next to Lorenzo's table, without noticing his drawings to her right.It: Quando Lorenzo si alzò per prendere un dolce al bancone, prese di fretta la custodia del suo laptop – o almeno così pensava.En: When Lorenzo got up to get a pastry from the counter, he hurriedly took the case of his laptop — or so he thought.It: Tornato al suo posto, aprì la custodia solo per trovare dei grafici aziendali invece dei suoi schizzi.En: Back at his seat, he opened the case only to find business charts instead of his sketches.It: "Che strano!"En: "How strange!"It: pensò, mentre osservava meglio quella che era chiaramente una presentazione business.En: he thought, as he looked more closely at what was clearly a business presentation.It: Dall'altro lato del caffè, Giulia controllò il suo laptop e scoprì con orrore i disegni di un artista.En: On the other side of the café, Giulia checked her laptop and discovered with horror the drawings of an artist.It: "Questo non è mio!"En: "This isn't mine!"It: esclamò con preoccupazione.En: she exclaimed with concern.It: Fece una rapida ricognizione del locale e notò Lorenzo con una custodia che sembrava familiare.En: She quickly looked around the place and noticed Lorenzo with a case that seemed familiar.It: "Scusa!"En: "Excuse me!"It: disse Lorenzo, sollevando lo sguardo mentre Giulia si avvicinava.En: said Lorenzo, looking up as Giulia approached.It: "Credo che ci sia stato un errore."En: "I think there's been a mix-up."It: "Già," annuì Giulia, leggermente irritata.En: "Indeed," nodded Giulia, slightly irritated.It: "Credo che tu abbia il mio laptop."En: "I think you have my laptop."It: Lorenzo sorrise imbarazzato.En: Lorenzo smiled embarrassedly.It: "Ups, che pasticcio!En: "Oops, what a mess!It: Facciamo cambio?"En: Shall we swap?"It: In quel momento, Paolo osservava la scena con un sorriso di compiacimento.En: In that moment, Paolo watched the scene with a smile of satisfaction.It: Era quel tipo di serendipità a cui sperava di assistere.En: It was the kind of serendipity he hoped to witness.It: "Forse il destino sa cosa fa," pensò.En: "Maybe destiny knows what it's doing," he thought.It: Dopo aver risolto il malinteso e ristabilito l'ordine, Lorenzo e Giulia risero insieme, sedendosi di nuovo ai loro tavoli.En: After resolving the mistake and restoring order, Lorenzo and Giulia laughed together, sitting back down at their tables.It: "Sai," disse Lorenzo, "forse dovrei prestare più attenzione."En: "You know," said Lorenzo, "maybe I should pay more attention."It: Giulia, finalmente rilassata, rispose: "E io forse dovrei essere meno rigida."En: Giulia, finally relaxed, replied, "And maybe I should be less rigid."It: Poco dopo, Paolo portò due tazze di caffè e si unì a loro.En: Shortly after, Paolo brought two cups of coffee and joined them.It: "Vi offro questo per festeggiare una nuova amicizia," disse, strizzando l'occhio.En: "I'll treat you to this to celebrate a new friendship," he said, winking.It: Con il profumo di caffè fresco nell'aria e sorrisi sinceri sui loro volti, Lorenzo e Giulia scoprirono che c'era più che solo lavoro in quel caffè.En: With the scent of fresh coffee in the air and genuine smiles on their faces, Lorenzo and Giulia discovered that there was more than just work in that café.It: Tra i sorsi e le risate, il freddo di febbraio sembrava lontano, e così pure le frenesie del quotidiano.En: Between sips and laughs, the February cold seemed distant, as did the daily hustle.It: Forse, dopotutto, Paolo aveva ragione: il destino ha sempre un modo per riunire le persone giuste al momento giusto.En: Perhaps, after all, Paolo was right: destiny always has a way of bringing the right people together at the

In dieser Folge tauchen Daniel Dippold, EWOR, und Mike Mahlkow tief in ihre persönlichen Produktivitäts-Setups ein. Sie sprechen offen und konkret über die Tools, die ihnen wirklich Zeit sparen und ihren Arbeitsalltag effizienter machen – von E-Mail und Kalender über File Management und Meeting-Transkription bis hin zu Hardware-Tipps. Dabei geht es nicht um Tool-Overload, sondern um die Frage: Wie findet man die richtige Balance und was bringt wirklich Return on Time? Was du aus der Folge mitnimmst: Konkret & ehrlich: Welche Tools Daniel und Mike täglich wirklich nutzen und warum – von Superhuman für E-Mail, Raycast für Mac, cal.com/WimCall für Scheduling, Optiverse für Meeting-Transkription bis zu ClickUp und Google für Projekt- und Wissensmanagement. Prozess statt Hype: Wie man Tools auswählt und woran man erkennt, ob sich das Onboarding und der Wechsel wirklich lohnt. Hardware matters: Warum ein guter Laptop, stabile Kopfhörer, Mikro & Internet genauso produktiv machen wie die beste Software. Ergonomie & Gesundheit: Wie ein Laptopständer und externe Tastatur Nackenproblemen vorbeugen. Tool-Philosophie: Produktivität ist kein Tool-Overload! Es geht um wenige, aber wirkungsvolle Tools – und darum, regelmäßig zu prüfen, was wirklich Zeit spart. Bonus: Ausblick auf AI-Workflows und warum ein bewusster Umgang mit neuen Tools und Automatisierungen immer wichtiger wird.

Watch Us On YouTube! Scroll down for timestamps and details. Much to the disappointment of thousands of M2G fans around the world, Julian Kheel is back with Ed this week as they dig deeper into Bilt Cash, now that Bilt has finally filled in some of the missing details. They break down what works, what's confusing, and why expiration rules might actually limit how much spend ends up on the card. From there, the conversation shifts to travel news: Heathrow quietly becoming one of the easiest international airports to clear security, American Airlines' messy rollout of "free" Wi-Fi, Delta's long-awaited plan to replace coffin-class seats (eventually), and why JetBlue continues to embarrass the legacy carriers on connectivity. Plus, a reminder about a 15% Miles To Go listener discount on one of our favorite award-search tools.

What happens when you need a gap year from real life? When you’ve worked hard, climbed the corporate ladder and saved every penny to buy your first apartment in the big city, only to find yourself in a trap? Tim Abbott was living the quintessential city life. By 28, he had cracked the Sydney property market, secured a stable corporate career, and built a thriving side hustle making memes for over 100,000 Instagram followers. But behind the scenes, a shocking $11,500 quarterly strata bill and the crushing weight of the cost-of-living crisis brought him to breaking point. Tim realised he was "cosplaying adulthood" in a life he couldn't afford and didn't enjoy. So, he engineered what he calls a "Financial Gap Year." In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson speaks with Tim about his decision to trade his laptop for a tractor. Tim explains how he quit his job in digital marketing, rented out his apartment, and moved to a rural farm in Queensland to work on a timber plantation. Now, living in a caravan and cutting his expenses by 90%, he is on a mission to regain his financial freedom with a massive goal in mind: To save $100,000 in just 12 months. We unpack the "ego death" of leaving a "cool" city identity for high-vis and manual labour, the unexpected joy found in a simple existence, and how to tell the difference between what society wants for you and what you actually want for yourself. Join us for an honest and hilarious conversation about taking back control of your own timeline. THE END BITS: Want more from Sarah Davidson? Check out her podcast Seize The Yay.

In the early 1980s, portable computers were either one of two categories. Big and functional. Or small and basic. And while there were successes within each category, you can hardly identify them as today's modern laptops. Then in 1985, the Japanese company Toshiba releases a ground-breaking laptop PC that brings it all together for the first time. In today's video, let us look back at the first commercially successful laptop PC: The Toshiba T1100 and its successors.

Jeff Mao, founder of Knead and Nosh, educator, author, and former statewide leader in educational technology, joins Dr. Lisa Belisle on Radio Maine to reflect on a career shaped by curiosity, adaptability, and community. A Bowdoin College graduate, Jeff began as a teacher and coach before becoming a central figure in Maine's pioneering one-to-one laptop program, which helped transform how students and teachers across the state engaged with technology and learning. In recent years, Jeff has brought that same systems-thinking and love of experimentation to food, launching Knead and Nosh and earning statewide recognition for his bagels—including the award-winning Sichuan Dragon bagel, inspired by his Chinese heritage and culinary history. He shares how education, technology, and food intersect through storytelling, science, and culture, and how Maine's farmers markets and food community have become an extension of his lifelong work connecting people. Thoughtful, wide-ranging, and deeply rooted in place, Jeff's story is one of reinvention and purpose.

Hunter Biden is an American attorney, businessman, and author and the son of President Joe Biden. Born in Delaware and shaped by profound personal tragedies and a diverse career in finance, policy, and international ventures. His mother and sister passed away in a car accident when he was young, and his brother, who survived the accident, later passed at age 46 from brain cancer. Married to Melissa Cohen, with whom he has one child. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history from Georgetown University and earned a Juris Doctor degree from Yale Law School, before working briefly as a Jesuit volunteer in Portland, Oregon, and transitioning into banking and politics. Biden built his early career at MBNA America, then served at the United States Department of Commerce, focusing on e-commerce policy during the Clinton administration. In 2001, he co-founded the lobbying firm Oldaker, Biden & Belair, which worked on issues including online gambling. He served as a board member of Amtrak and is a founding partner of Rosemont Seneca Partners, an investment and advisory firm. He previously was on the board of BHR Partners, a China-based private equity firm, and from 2014 to 2019, he served on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, amid political investigations. In 2013, Biden joined the U.S. Navy Reserve as an ensign, but was discharged in 2014. Biden has publicly admitted to struggles with addiction, detailed in his 2021 memoir Beautiful Things, and has been sober since 2019. He faced public controversies, including the 2018 laptop scandal, and was under federal criminal investigation for tax matters and firearm possession. In 2024, he pleaded guilty to failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes from 2016 to 2019 on foreign income, which he spent on drugs and luxuries. In April 2025, President Joe Biden issued a pardon clearing Hunter of his federal gun and tax convictions. Biden continues to advocate for awareness of addiction through his personal story of recovery and resilience.
