Los aficionados a las ucronias suelen afirmar que, si Hitler hubiera entrado en la Academia de Bellas Artes, hoy no habria documentales de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Y si Churchill no hubiera suspendido el examen militar y hubiera acabado en un cuartel remoto, lo mismo hoy hablariamos aleman. De igual manera, si Stalin hubiera seguido en el seminario, habria sido sacerdote en Georgia y no habria habido gulag. Quien sabe lo que habria pasado si Napoleon hubiera acabado como notario en Corcega, si Lenin hubiera conseguido un empleo en Zurich o si Mao hubiera triunfado en la poesia...Salvando las distancias, muchos nos hemos preguntado que habria sucedido si Marengo, el grupo de musica melodica en el que Carlos Mazon era vocalista, hubiera sido seleccionado para Eurovision, evento al que concurrio sin lograr clasificarse; que hubiera sucedido si finalmente se hubiera consolidado en los escenarios...Dice Jabois que lo unico que se recordara dentro de cien anos sera la factura del Ventorro y el paseo por el parking. Seguramente ni eso. A lo mejor dentro de cien anos nadie recuerda ni lo que era un parking. Pero hay algo que si perdura: la certeza de que lo peor que puede decirse de un politico cuando todo se ha dicho es que habriamos estado mejor si nunca se hubiera metido en politica.Ser feliz es ignorar, y nosotros ignoramos los desastres que se evitaron porque cierta gente no se metio en politica. No nos hagamos dano.
Der berühmt-berüchtigte französische Zentralismus, er bildet sich auch in der deutschen Frankreich-Berichterstattung der 1920er Jahre und darüber vermittelt unvermeidlich in diesem Podcast ab. Immer wieder hat es uns in den zurückliegenden Jahren nach Paris verschlagen. Auf Ausflüge in den kleinen Rest des Landes, den man vom Kirchturm von Notre Dame aus nicht überblicken kann, sind wir dagegen selten gestoßen; zweimal in Reims, einmal in der Provence, ein Blick ins Elsass – viel mehr sind wir bislang nicht herumgekommen. Walter Hasenclever indes wollte sich mit diesem Radius nicht begnügen und zog in seiner Sommerfrische hinaus bis weit aufs Mittelmeer, wo die Franzosen den Genuesen im 18. Jahrhundert die stolze Insel Korsika abgeknüpft hatten. Deren mittelalterlichem Charakter, stellt Hasenclever im Hamburger Anzeiger vom 30. Oktober 1925 fest, hatte dies zumindest stellenweise aber wenig Abbruch getan. Davon hat sich für uns Frank Riede überzeugt.
In this bonus interview, I sit down with Phillips Payson O'Brien and we discuss his latest book: War and Power: Who Wins Wars—and Why. For nearly two centuries, international relations have been premised on the idea of the “Great Powers.” As the thinking went, these mighty states—the European empires of the nineteenth century, the United States and the USSR during the Cold War—were uniquely able to exert their influence on the world stage because of their overwhelming military capabilities. But as military historian Phillips Payson O'Brien argues in War and Power, this conception of power fails to capture the more complicated truth about how wars are fought and won.Our focus on the importance of large, well-equipped armies and conclusive battles has obscured the foundational forces that underlie military victories and the actual mechanics of successful warfare. O'Brien suggests a new framework of “full-spectrum powers,” taking into account all of the diverse factors that make a state strong—from economic and technological might, to political stability, to the complex logistics needed to maintain forces in the field.Drawing on examples ranging from Napoleon's France to today's ascendant China, War and Power offers a critical new understanding of what makes a power truly great. It is vital reading in today's perilous world.Buy The Book HereSupport Western Civ

Phil Svitek and Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) do a bonus Bookmarked episode on George Orwell's Animal Farm—a quick-hit companion to our 1984 episode. We share overall reactions (Marisa read it right after 1984; Phil revisited it for the first time since high school) and dig into the big stuff: how a “fairy story” becomes a razor-sharp satire of revolutions gone sideways, why language manipulation (Squealer!) matters, the seduction of “ends justify the means,” and what “some animals are more equal than others” says about power today. We connect key moments—Boxer's tragedy, the windmill grind, Napoleon's myth-making—to modern propaganda, disinformation, and personality cults, then compare its bite to 1984's. It's not a deep dive—more of a guided reaction with themes and takeaways—and we'd love your thoughts: What parallels do you see now? Drop a comment and join the convo.
„Für die Adelshandbücher und Lexika des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts wird der GOTHA die Blaupause“, sagt Dr. Petra Weigel. Napoleon hat ihn zensiert, trotz seiner begrenzten Käufergruppe – die gut zurecht kam mit der kleinen und eng gesetzten Schrift (aka Augenpulver!) – konnte er sich fast 200 Jahre behaupten, und bis heute gilt er als wichtiger Vorreiter vieler medialer Produkte des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts: der Gothaische Hofkalender, der GOTHA, ist das wichtigste Adelslexikon Europas. Im Rahmen des 1250-jährigen Jubiläums der Stadt Gotha hat die Forschungsbibliothek Gotha der Universität Erfurt dem berühmten Adelskalender unter dem Titel „ADEL MACHT STAAT“ erstmals eine Ausstellung gewidmet. Warum der GOTHA trotz seiner Ausstrahlkraft bisher kaum erforscht wurde, wie er sich so lange am Buchmarkt halten konnte und wie es gelingt, aus 700 wenig erschlossenen Bänden, die im Archiv zusammen über 20 Meter fassen, eine anregende und höchst informative Ausstellung zu konzipieren, besprechen wir in dieser Folge mit den beiden Kurator*innen Dr. Petra Weigel, Abteilungsleiterin der Sammlung Perthes und Sven Ballenthin, Mitarbeiter der Sammlung Perthes. „Dem GOTHA gelingt es, sich Zeit seines Erscheinens in großer Wandelbarkeit zu präsentieren“, berichtet Sven Ballenthin. Adelskalender erscheinen jährlich im Format eines Taschenbuchs in verschiedenen Ausgaben und sind typische Zeugnisse der Buch- und Verlagskultur des 18. Jahrhunderts. Als sich das Herzogtum Gotha im 18. Jahrhundert zu einem überregional bekannten Verlagsort entwickelte, erschienen dort die ersten Kalender. Mit dem Vertrieb des GOTHA gründete sich der berühmte Justus Perthes Verlag Gotha, der heute vor allem durch seine hochwertigen Atlanten und Karten bekannt ist. Dennoch ist der GOTHA das am längsten verlegte Produkt des Verlags. Die zunächst sehr eingeschränkte Zielgruppe eines adeligen Adressat*innenkreises erweitert sich zunehmend, mit der Zeit ließen sich auch immer mehr Teile eines bürgerlichen Publikums von den Texten „zum Nutzen und Vergnügen“ im Gothaischen Hofkalender bzw. Almanach de Gotha unterhalten und informieren. Auch hier rangiert der frühe Gothaische Hofkalender mit seinen vielfältigen Texten, Kupferstichen und Zeichnungen als Vorbild für zahlreiche später erscheinende Medien wie etwa Reisejournale, Illustrierte und Modezeitschriften. Der GOTHA stieg zum bedeutendsten genealogischen Standardwerk des europäischen Adels auf und wurde zum einflussreichen Handbuch der Staaten der Welt – gelungen ist das durch seine große Kontinuität (jährliche Veröffentlichung), seine redaktionelle Genauigkeit (penibel recherchierte Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse mussten überprüft werden) und seine hohe Anpassungsfähigkeit an moderne Entwicklungen und zeitgenössische politische Strömungen. Erst jüngst wurde der GOTHA selbst Gegenstand eines Forschungsprojekts der Universität Hamburg, die den Hofkalender als wichtigstes genealogisches Kompendium der Moderne untersucht, um Abstammungsbeziehungen und die Verwandtschaftsstrukturen der Adelsschichten besser nachvollziehen zu können und so die Familiengeschichten zu erforschen. Erste Ergebnisse dieser Forschung finden sich ebenfalls in der Jahresausstellung der Forschungsbibliothek Gotha wider. Dr. Petra Weigel ist Abteilungsleiterin der Forschungsbibliothek Gotha der Universität Erfurt für die Sammlung Perthes. Zuvor arbeitete sie als Wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Lehrstuhl Thüringische Landesgeschichte und Mittelalterliche Geschichte der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena und war Lehrbeauftragte am Historischen Institut. In ihrer Promotion hat sie sich mit der Geschichte des Franziskanerordens im Spätmittelalter auseinandergesetzt. Weigel ist Mitglied der Historischen Kommission für Thüringen. Sven Ballenthin arbeitet ebenfalls an der Forschungsbibliothek Gotha und betreut das Archiv der Sammlung Perthes und damit verbundene Projekte. Davor war er Mitarbeiter am Lehrstuhl Neuere Geschichte an der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena. Der Gothaische Hofkalender zählt zu seinen Forschungsinteressen.

The audacious heist at The Louvre has captured the world's imagination after four men in construction vests pulled up in a stolen furniture truck in broad daylight and used an extending ladder to break in and raid display cases with disc cutters, taking off with France's priceless crown jewels in less than seven minutes. Their loot included a diamond necklace given by Napoleon to his second wife and now more than 100 investigators are working on the case. The first arrests have been made - but the world is asking, how could this happen in one of the busiest museums in the world? Piers Morgan speaks to world-renowned art detective Arthur Brand before further discussing the case with Ashton Bingham and Artsiom Kulik, hosts of the new Fox series ‘Scammed: Getting Even', former mobster Michael Franzese, Larry Lawton AKS YouTube's Jewel Thief and Cain Vincent Dyer, who was once one of the most prolific bank robbers in the US...

The doomed advance commenced around 5 a.m., when still quite dark. The idea was for General Bagration's left flank to initiate the attack on the French right flank and drive the enemy into the mountains. Officers were hurriedly drinking tea and eating a decent breakfast while buttoning their coats and buckling their swords. Battalion and regimental commanders, along with their adjuncts, mounted their horses and gave final instructions. Austrian guides were now moving among the troops and heralding the advance. Those who would be moving were anxious amidst the cold and mist. The soldiers had been eating their rations, which consisted of a biscuit, while some beat their feet (while sitting around fires) to a tolerable warmth. The allied army reached a critical point, to either keep what they had or destroy it. Thus, into the fires went chairs, tables, wheels and everything that was not needed or could not be carried. The men then hoisted their bags onto carts, readied their muskets, and ran to form rank. There were a lot of non-combatant equipment men and logistics people who harnessed and packed the wagons. Soon the tramp of thousands of marching feet resounded. The throng moved without seeing where they were headed, as great masses of familiar men were surrounded by smoke and fog. For most, their senses heightened and they listened intently and looked about, each strengthened by their numbers. The columns thus advanced, descending and ascending hills, going over new and unknown ground. Nowhere did they encounter the French. The troops marched with enthusiasm for about an hour before the greater part had to halt and an unpleasant consciousness of some blunder spread. Tolstoy notes how such a mindset moves through such a body so rapidly is impossible to define. It was understood that large units were crossing one other. For example, in one area, several thousand cavalry crossed in front of the infantry. In contrast to the jovial spirit with which the troops had started, they were now filled with vexation and anger. The disorder was attributed to “those stupid Germans,” often called “sausage-eaters.” There were even visible altercations between some Austrian and Russian leaders. While stationary, the troops grew listless and dispirited. After this inauspicious development that lasted the better part of an hour, some soldiers started to hear shots. It was beyond the fog and irregular but then came at more frequent intervals. A small contingent who expected to come upon the enemy down by a stream stumbled upon the French in the fog. Similar interactions, of advancing and halting and exchanging uneven shots with the enemy, played out among the first, second and third columns in the lowlands, amidst thick fog. The 4th column, which Kutuzov was with, stood on the Infamous Pratzen Heights. On this higher ground, much of the field was becoming observable as the day developed and sun rose. High up in the village of Schlappanitz –the Great Napoleon stood with his marshals, observing the field and the Pratzen Heights. He was basking in the crimson sun that was rising in a striking blue sky. He donned the famous blue cloak he wore on his Italian campaign, sitting on his gray Arab horse. He gazed at the hills which seemed to rise out of the sea of mist and on which his adversaries were moving, listening to the sounds of firing. He is imbued by as already having the air of having victory. One part of the Russian forces already descended into a valley toward the ponds and lakes and another were leaving the Pratzen Heights, which Napolean abandoned before the battle but intended to retake and regarded as the key position. Napoleon plainly noticed the disorderly movement of his enemy and that the columns moving near The Pratzen Heights constituted the center of the Russian army, which was sufficiently weakened to be successfully attacked.

ÄNTLIGEN börjar vi med vår storslagna italienska såpopera. ETT DUBBELAVSNITT OM ENANDET. Med Napoleon i grå rock, Metternich som försöker skruva tillbaka historien med skiftnyckel och ett Italien som ”bara” är en geografisk beteckning. Vi följer gnistan från franska reformer och plundrade bibliotek till hemliga sällskap, carbonari-källare och ideologen Mazzinis stora idé: att ett folk faktiskt kan bli ett land. Milano reser barrikader, påven Pius IX flirtar med liberalismen och 1848 års folkstorm får hela halvön att darra.Det är romantik och realpolitik i samma gryta: poeter som skapar språk, bönder som marscherar under helgonfanor, kungar som vill vara hjältar – och i kulissen skymtar en röd skjorta som snart ska bli myt. Resultatet? Ett Italien som ännu inte finns, men som redan känns.Lyssna på del 1 av Il Risorgimento – från Napoleon till Folkens vår 1848. Nästa vecka smäller det på riktigt: kunglig revansch, franska piruetter, Garibaldi med seglarhatt och vägen mot ett land som säger ”ciao” till splittringen.Läslista:Fagerström, Eskil, Italiens moderna historia, Historiska media, Lund, 2020Gendel, Milton (red.), Italiens historia i ord och bild, Norstedt, Stockholm, 1967Hägg, Göran, Ett alldeles särskilt land: 150 år i Italien, Norstedt, Stockholm, 2012Holmes, George (red.), The Oxford history of Italy, Oxford Univ.

After five years of turmoil, France needed a government. But how? With the Republic increasingly controlled by “rogues and scoundrels,” the battle was on for the Revolution's future. Assailed from all sides, the Committee of Public Safety emerged triumphant. This episode traces Robespierre's parliamentary victory of 25 September 1793, Saint-Just's decree of “Revolutionary Government” on 10 October 1793, and the Convention's decision to remain “until the peace.” From foreign plots and factional struggles to the subordination of ministers and generals, discover how dissent became treason as the Revolution laid the foundations for both survival and dictatorship.

Look, whether you're a Yankee or a Confederate at heart, you don't take much joy in what happened at what is called the "High Water Mark of the Confederacy." If you're a Civil War buff, you know that's where the Union Army turned back Pickett's Charge at the Battle of Gettysburg. Some 15,000 Confederate soldiers marched courageously across a field in a very tightly-packed formation, advancing on 40,000 Union soldiers. Only 150 of those Southern soldiers made it. General Lee had made an honest but tragic mistake. See, he'd been trained at West Point in Napoleon's war tactics - masses of men, advancing against imprecise, short-range weapons until they could overwhelm the opposing troops in hand-to-hand combat. Unfortunately, things had changed since that kind of strategy had won battles for Napoleon. Recent technology of that time had greatly improved the range and the accuracy of the rifles that the Union Army was using, which meant those masses of men were brought down long before they could ever reach enemy lines. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Today's Battles, Yesterday's Weapons." Robert E. Lee, the great general that he was, made the fatal mistake of fighting today's battles with what used to work. You know, a lot of us are still making that fatal mistake when it comes to fighting the battle for which Jesus gave His life - turning people from the death penalty of their sin to the eternal life that only Jesus can give them. When we lose that battle, a soul is lost forever. The message that Jesus died for our sin and came back from the dead to be our living Savior: that message, wow, that never changes. The Good News about Jesus always has been and it always will be the unchanging (in God's words) "power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes" (Romans 1:16). That message is always relevant, it's always powerful, it's never to be tampered with or watered down, or compromised. But the methods by which we present His message are always subject to change. And, frankly, many of us haven't changed our methods for a long time. We're still trying to reach people with what used to work. But today's lost people? They don't know the Bible, they don't understand our "Christianese" words we use to explain what Jesus did, they don't ever plan to come to our religious meeting to hear our religious speaker talk on a religious subject in a religious place, which describes a lot of the ways we try to reach them. The Apostle Paul, who never compromised his message, of course, was the same one who said in 1 Corinthians 9:22, our word for today from the Word of God, "I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some." In terms of method, Paul tells us you have to be willing to do whatever it takes, within Biblical boundaries, to rescue the dying. Which today may mean going to where they are instead of counting on them to come where we are, doing outreach in places where they feel comfortable - neutral ground - instead of where we feel comfortable in our religious setting, communicating Christ in non-religious words that a lost person can understand. Delivering the message in music that is their musical language instead of ours, realizing it's going to be the everyday believer like you that we'll have to depend on to rescue the lost more than those programs we've created. See, the program of God for rescuing the dying is the people of God. If we insist on fighting today's battle for the lost with what worked yesterday, we'll keep on reaching who we've already been reaching, while most of the spiritually dying people around us will live and die without God and without hope. We can't lose them because we insist on doing what we've always done, sticking to what we're comfortable with. The eternity of people all around us is at stake - this is a battle that is too costly to lose.

Prosecutors said four thieves used battery-powered disccutters or mini chain saws to enter the world's most-visited museum during the daylight raid, using a mechanized cherry-picker to gain access and two scooters to escape.目前案件调查仍在进行,卢浮宫于周一继续闭馆。检察官透露,此次白天劫案中,四名窃贼使用电池驱动的角磨机或迷你链锯闯入这座全球参观人数最多的博物馆。They made off with nine extremely valuable items from France's "royal jewels", including diadems, necklaces, earrings and brooches made in the 19th century for members of the royal family and imperial rulers.他们借助机械升降平台进入馆内,事后乘坐两辆摩托车逃窜,共盗走9件极具价值的法国“王室珠宝”,包括19世纪为王室成员及帝国统治者打造的王冠、项链、耳环和胸针。One of the items, a crown made for Napoleon III's wife, the Empress Eugenie, was apparently dropped as the thieves escaped. The ornate gold piece featuring 1,354 diamonds and 56 emeralds was damaged during the theft, the French TV station TF1 and the newspaper Le Parisien reported.据法国电视一台(TF1)及《巴黎人报》报道,窃贼逃跑时疑似遗落一件为拿破仑三世之妻欧仁妮皇后打造的皇冠。这件镶嵌1354颗钻石与56颗祖母绿的华丽金质皇冠,在失窃过程中已受损。The minister of culture, Rachida Dati, told TF1 that investigators have video of the thieves entering the ornate, gold-gilded Galerie d'Apollon, on the first floor of the museum, "calmly" before smashing display cases.法国文化部长拉茜达・达蒂向电视一台表示,调查人员掌握了窃贼进入博物馆一楼阿波罗镀金长廊的监控画面。画面显示,窃贼“镇定自若”地进入长廊后,随即砸毁展柜。They did not use violence and appeared "very professional" and "experienced", she said.画面显示,窃贼“镇定自若”地进入长廊后,随即砸毁展柜。她指出,窃贼未使用暴力,看起来“专业性极强”且“经验丰富”。The interior minister, Laurent Nunez, told France Inter radio that they moved "very, very fast" and that the heist was over in less than seven minutes, between about 9:30 am and about 9:40 am.法国内政部长洛朗・努内兹接受法国国际广播电台采访时称,窃贼行动“极其迅速”,整个劫案在上午9时30分至9时40分之间完成,耗时不足7分钟。The stolen items were "priceless" and "of immeasurable heritage value", Nunez said.他强调,被盗物品“价值连城”,且“具有不可估量的遗产价值”。The thieves told security guards to evacuate the area while they opened two glass display cases, police said. The Ministry of Culture confirmed that museum workers correctly followed procedure and did not attempt to tackle the thieves.警方表示,窃贼要求安保人员撤离该区域,随后打开两个玻璃展柜。法国文化部证实,博物馆工作人员严格遵守流程,未试图与窃贼对抗。Arthur Brand, an art recovery expert, told CNN that the theft amounts to a "national disaster" for France."These are the crown jewels from Napoleon, his wife and his successors. So these are the natural pride of France. It's a great loss."艺术品追回专家亚瑟・布兰德向美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)表示,此次失窃对法国而言堪称“国家灾难”。“这些珠宝属于拿破仑、其妻子及继任者,是法国天然的骄傲,此次失窃是巨大损失。”Jordan Bardella, leader of France's far-right National Rally party, put the blame at the foot of the government, writing on X: "The Louvre is a global symbol of our culture. This robbery, which allowed thieves to steal jewels from the French crown, is an unbearable humiliation for our country. How far will the decay of the state go?"法国极右翼政党“国民联盟”领袖乔丹・巴尔德拉将矛头指向政府,他在社交平台X(原推特)上发文称:“卢浮宫是全球文化象征,窃贼盗走法国王室珠宝的这起劫案,是我国难以承受的耻辱。国家的衰败还要持续到何种地步?”Nathalie Goulet, a member of the French Senate's finance committee, told the BBC that "we are all disappointed and angry"."(It is) difficult to understand how it happened so easily," she said.法国参议院财政委员会成员娜塔莉・古莱向英国广播公司(BBC)表示,“所有人都感到失望与愤怒”,“很难理解为何劫案能如此轻易发生”。Justice Minister Gerald Darmanin agreed, telling France Inter, "People were able to park a furniture hoist in the middle of Paris, get people up it in several minutes to grab priceless jewels and give France a terrible image."法国司法部长热拉尔德・达尔马宁对此表示认同,他向法国国际广播电台坦言:“有人竟能在巴黎市中心停放一台升降平台,几分钟内载人进入博物馆盗走珍贵珠宝,给法国抹上了污点。”brazen/ˈbreɪzn/adj.胆大妄为的;厚颜无耻的heist/haɪst/n.抢劫;盗窃ornate/ɔːˈneɪt/adj.华丽的;装饰繁复的diadem/ˈdaɪədem/n.王冠;冕
In this episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, hosts Joel Cheesman and Chad Sowash interview Barry Wolfe, a former Fortune 500 HR leader turned consultant and author of It's All In Your Head: Why Psychology Doesn't Help Your Employees Deliver Value – And What Can (2025). Wolfe critiques the "bullshit psychology industrial complex," comparing tools like Myers-Briggs and DISC to 19th-century phrenology, arguing they're unscientific and fail to predict performance. He blames executives' desire for easy answers for their reliance on these flawed methods, even as AI risks amplifying the problem with recycled "gibberish." Instead, Wolfe's Value-Centric Leadership model urges leaders to define business value through a “same page” document and replace appraisals with “success maps” focusing on measurable deliverables. HR, he suggests, can lead by demanding clarity on 3-5 value-added results per role. The candid, humorous discussion, peppered with banter about a Napoleon-era jacket, targets HR pros and leaders, urging them to ditch platitudes for results. Wolfe plugs a free Chapter 3 at argoshr.com/book, and the hosts endorse the book as “anti-bullshit.”
The Battle of Trafalgar, fought on October 21, 1805, was one of the most decisive naval battles in history.

Art historian Carl Brandon Stehlke is a world expert on the great 15th Century Florentine painter Fra Angelico, and this is his dream project: a historic, once-in-a-lifetime exhibition of the artist's work at the Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi and the Museo di San Marco in Florence. The show brings together more than 140 works from 70 different lenders and reunites the sections of Angelico's great altarpieces, scattered when Napoleon closed the city's churches and convents in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries, now fully restored and seen together for the first time in 200 years. Carl takes Maria Margaronis through the process of mounting such a massive exhibition from conception to grand opening. In the restorers' studios she hears how new technologies are revealing the limpid colours of paintings once thought beyond repair. And in the stillness of the San Marco convent Carl explains how Angelico's intimate, deeply humane frescos guided the friars' meditation and spiritual life, and how he fell in love with the artist's work nearly 50 years ago.

Find me on Substack: https://bogumilbaranowski.substack.com/Ritavan is a bestselling author of "Data Impact," former CTO, and data transformation expert with a decade of operating experience across sectors including banking (Société Générale), energy trading, consulting, and real estate technology, who advocates for treating digital initiatives like value investments rather than following technology trends.EPISODE NOTES3:00 - Ritavan shares the fascinating story behind having only one name—his grandfather's generation dropped last names as part of a social reform movement to combat caste-based discrimination in India, as colonial systems had turned last names into markers of social hierarchy.7:30 - Early career journey spans math research in Paris at École Normale Supérieure, market risk at Société Générale during the 2008 financial crisis obsession, and energy trading where he cleared his trading exam within six weeks despite not knowing what a megawatt was.13:45 - The core thesis emerges: following technology trends destroys business value. Ritavan argues that constantly chasing AI, cloud, or the latest tech is like an investor jumping between market fads—you're not playing the long game or building real competitive advantage.20:30 - Revolutionary perspective on value creation paradigms throughout history: hunter-gatherers relied 40-60% on traps (automation), agriculture depended on land, industrial age on machinery and raw materials, while the digital paradigm offers zero replication costs and near-zero personalization costs.27:00 - Introduces the SLASOG framework: Save (capital preservation, avoid groupthink), Leverage (find asymmetric opportunities), Align (commander's intent), Simplify (remove clutter), Optimize (maximize returns), Compound (play the long game), Keep (retain gains).36:30 - Roger Federer insight: He won only 54% of points but 80% of games due to tennis's nonlinear scoring system—a powerful metaphor for business success requiring asymmetric opportunities, not perfection.41:00 - Teaching the first LLM-native college students: Traditional assessment is obsolete when AI can summarize and synthesize better than humans. The solution? Open-ended problems with no single answer, forcing genuine creativity and collaboration.48:30 - Napoleon's battlefield genius: treating each battle from first principles, understanding the system, finding nonlinear advantages, and pioneering "commander's intent"—ensuring even illiterate foot soldiers understood strategic goals, not just tactical orders.54:45 - The North Star metric concept: Legacy businesses obsess over EBIT (backward-looking), but digital-age companies need forward-looking metrics that quantify customer value delivery to enable rapid adaptation and compounding gains.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC.

Four suspects made off with several priceless items of jewelry in what officials called a “highly professional operation.” The sapphire necklace of Queen Marie-Amélie and the emerald necklace gifted by Napoleon to his second wife Marie-Louise as a wedding present are among the pieces missing.

Der Jahrhundertraub im berühmten Kunstmuseum Louvre in Paris schockt Frankreich. Vier Täter steigen über ein Fenster in den Louvre ein und stehlen unschätzbar wertvollen Schmuck von Napoleon und französischen Königen. Der Fall erinnert viele an die Serie «Lupin» mit Meisterdieb Assane. Tatsächlich sind Raubfälle in Museen gar nicht so selten und auch oft nicht immer so ausgeklügelt wie in der Serie dargestellt. Das erzählen in dieser Podcastfolge eine Kunsthistorikerin, die ein Buch über solche Diebstähle geschrieben hat, sowie ein Fachmann für die Sicherung von Museen und Kunst. Museen wie der Louvre können sich mit verschiedenen Massnahmen schützen: Mit baulichen und technologischen - und mit gutem Personal. In der Praxis ist das jedoch weniger simpel, als es klingt. Museen sind komplexe Orte, die man nicht einfach hermetisch abriegeln kann, obwohl der Schutzbedarf sehr hoch ist. ____________________ Habt Ihr Fragen oder Themen-Inputs?

After years of war throughout the continent of Europe, in 1814, Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte abdicated and was exiled to the small island of Elba off the coast of Italy.

The French Revolution facilitated the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, but after gaining power he knew that his first task was to end it. In this book William Doyle describes how he did so, beginning with the three large issues that had destabilized revolutionary France: war, religion, and monarchy. Doyle shows how, as First Consul of the Republic, Napoleon resolved these issues: first by winning the war, then by forging peace with the Church, and finally by making himself a monarch. Napoleon at Peace: How to End a Revolution (Reaktion Books, 2022) ends by discussing Napoleon's one great failure--his attempt to restore the colonial empire destroyed by war and slave rebellion. By the time this endeavor was abandoned, the fragile peace with Great Britain had broken down, and the Napoleonic wars had begun. Charles Coutinho, PH. D., Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, received his doctorate from New York University. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history. He has written for Chatham House's International Affairs, the Institute of Historical Research's Reviews in History and the University of Rouen's online periodical Cercles.

“so subtly influenced by it” [STUD] It is well known that T.S. Eliot lifted lines from "The Musgrave Ritual" and appropriated them for Murder in the Cathedral, as well as found inspiration for Macavity in the Napoleon of crime. In this "Mr. Sherlock Holmes the Theorist" episode, Don Hardenbrook, BSI ("Huret, the Boulevard Assassin") found a deeper meaning in Four Quartets, a collection of four interlinked poems by Eliot.
