Now he's trying to export the same playbook across the global South. We talk through how Uruguay pulled it off — the hydro “battery” for wind & solar “baseload,” the cross-party political deal, the market redesign — and what actually transfers to countries without the same advantages. We also discuss why, seven years on, no other country has followed Uruguay's path.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction03:09 – From particle physics to a nuclear proposal05:46 – Taking the job as energy secretary07:00 – The 2008 crisis: drought, expensive oil, blackouts09:26 – Getting every party to sign the same plan12:51 – Why climate was not the lead argument15:42 – Attracting private capital without privatizing20:22 – What a public utility made possible23:06 – Planning a grid where wind and solar are the base load29:26 – Thermal plants as insurance, and the last 2 percent32:36 – EVs, smart meters, and building an electrostate37:33 – Why bills fell less than generation costs39:46 – What transfers to other countries44:15 – Optimum curtailment, Colombia, and Haiti50:51 – The political work, and the argument against the dominant narrative56:36 – The Global South and the NDC as development catalyst

The National Drug Code (NDC) is a critical identifier used throughout the healthcare supply chain, supporting product identification across manufacturers, distributors, pharmacies, providers, payers, and data systems. In this episode, Reid Jackson and Liz Sertl chat with Ullrich Mayeski, Community Engagement Director - Healthcare at GS1 US. He explains the FDA's transition from the current 10-digit NDC format to a 12-digit format planned for 2033. Ullrich discusses why the change is happening, how the update will affect healthcare organizations, and why businesses should begin reviewing the systems, processes, and trading partner connections that rely on NDC data. The conversation explores the move toward a consistent NDC structure, the role of 2D barcodes, and how better product identification can support traceability, data exchange, and patient safety throughout the healthcare supply chain.

As political activities ahead of the 2027 general election begin to gather momentum, Nigeria's opposition is once again talking about unity. The goal is to present a single presidential candidate capable of challenging President Bola Tinubu.But with key parties and influential figures already expressing different views, many are asking whether that ambition can become a reality.Today on Nigeria Daily, we ask: Can Nigeria's opposition truly unite behind one presidential candidate, or are the cracks already too deep?

Senator Rufai Hanga has resigned from the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, barely five months after joining the party alongside his political ally, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.His resignation comes amid weeks of reported disagreements over political positions and candidate selection in Kano, and after a series of conflicting signals about his political future.So, is Hanga's exit simply a personal political decision, or does it point to deeper tensions within the Kwankwasiyya movement and the opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 elections?That is our focus today on Nigeria Daily.

As political parties prepare for the 2027 general election, unity may prove just as important as popularity.But a fresh Appeal Court ruling involving the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has raised questions about the party's internal leadership and what lies ahead.Today on Nigeria Daily, we ask: What does the Appeal Court ruling really mean for the ADC?I am Luqman Awwal Agono. My guests are Bolaji Abdullahi, National Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC); Paul Ibe, spokesperson to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar; and Mr. David West, political analyst.
The opposition says it is determined to unseat the ruling APC in 2027. But can it achieve that if one of the platforms expected to play a major role is caught in a legal battle?A recent court ruling has thrown the future of the NDC into uncertainty, prompting questions about what happens if the party eventually loses its registration. Would that derail Peter Obi's political ambitions? Would it affect ongoing talks among opposition figures? Or is this simply another legal hurdle that can be overcome?In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine what the court's decision really means, what the opposition is saying, and whether Nigeria's political landscape could change before the next general election.

How can sysadmins help software developers work securely and make more secure applications? While at NDC in Toronto, Richard sat down with Tanya Janca of SheCodesPurple to discuss what admins can do to help address the security challenges software developers face. Tanya talks about securing development environment and pipelines - developers routinely work from high privilege accounts because their tools require it, and as a result, have become the targets of black hats to get access to accounts, keys, and other exploitable resources. There are plenty of tools available to help work through the issues, including the latest AI-powered tools. LLMs can also help generate more secure code in the first place, and Tanya has created a set of prompts you can use to create more secure software. The threat landscape is shifting with these tools, and we need to act quickly to resist the new attacks!

The 47-day certificate is coming! While at NDC in Toronto, Richard received an update from Todd Gardner about his show last year: certificate authorities are moving toward SSL certificates that last only 47 days! Todd talks about the first decrease in duration that has already passed - as of March 2026, the longest duration certificate you can buy from certificate authorities is 200 days. At the core of these changes is the problem that certificate revocation just isn't working properly, so a short certificate lifespan is the effective solution. Short certificate lifespans make automation to replace certificates essential - and that's where CertKit and other tools come in!

For years, political defections have remained a recurring feature of Nigeria's democratic journey, with politicians frequently moving from one party to another after winning elections.Now, the National Democratic Congress, NDC, has introduced a policy requiring all candidates seeking elective offices on its platform to sign anti-defection affidavits and indemnity forms, committing themselves to vacate their seats if they leave the party after winning elections.The move has sparked fresh debate about political loyalty, party discipline and whether elected officials should be allowed to retain their mandates after defecting from the parties on which they were elected.Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily as we examine why the NDC introduced the policy, what it hopes to achieve, and whether anti-defection affidavits can help strengthen Nigeria's democracy ahead of the 2027 elections.
For years, political parties have served as the platforms through which politicians seek power, build alliances, and contest elections in Nigeria.Now, a Federal High Court ruling directing INEC to deregister the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and four other political parties has sparked fresh debate about the future of opposition politics and democratic competition ahead of the 2027 general elections.Join us in this episode of Nigeria Daily as we examine what the ruling means for the ADC, the politicians aligned with the party, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and the future of Nigeria's political landscape.
What can go wrong with machine learning? While at NDC in Toronto, Richard chatted with Megan Robertson about her experience with machine learning projects, often using retail datasets, and where they can go wrong. Megan talks about getting clear expectations and metrics for projects, so you know when you succeed, but then digs into the specifics of problems in machine learning, such as overfitting on test data. Your results are only as good as the data you put in, so a lot of focus goes into building good sets, carefully developing the model with those sets, and using techniques like cross-validation to ensure the model is behaving appropriately. There's a lot that can go wrong, but the results with an effective model can be very powerful - it is worth the effort! Links Cross Validate Model Megan's Website Recorded May 7, 2026

In Nigeria's political space, internal party disputes are not new. But when those disputes move from party offices into the electoral arena, they raise far more serious questions.The Peoples Democratic Party, one of the country's biggest opposition platforms, is once again at the centre of such uncertainty. Competing factions within the party continue to lay claim to authority, raising concerns about who truly represents the PDP structure.But beyond the leadership struggle lies a more complex scenario what happens if rival factions of the same party go beyond disagreement and present separate candidates in an election?At that point, the issue is no longer just about party unity. It becomes a question of legality, recognition, and ultimately, where votes will go on election day.So today on Nigeria Daily, we examine the unfolding situation within the PDP, speak with a Daily Trust correspondent following the crisis closely, hear from a lawyer on the legal implications, and later, a political analyst helps us understand what this could mean for Nigeria's opposition politics going forward.

For years in Nigerian politics, incumbency was seen as almost untouchable. Once you occupied political office, many believed securing another party ticket was only a formality. But the latest APC primaries across Nigeria have challenged that belief, as several serving lawmakers and political heavyweights lost their return tickets despite their influence and political structures. So, what really changed? Has the power of incumbency weakened, or are deeper political forces quietly reshaping the APC ahead of 2027? Today on Nigeria Daily, we examine why many incumbent office holders could not survive the APC primaries and what it could mean for Nigeria's political future.

More than a decade after leaving office, former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is once again becoming a major topic in Nigeria's political conversation.From social media campaigns to growing public debates, some Nigerians say the country needs Jonathan's leadership style back, while others believe Nigeria should focus on new political alternatives instead of returning to former leaders.But are these calls truly widespread among Nigerians… or simply driven by nostalgia and frustration with current realities?In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we examine the growing calls for Jonathan's return, what Nigerians really think about it, and whether such a comeback is politically realistic.

In Nigeria's political space, loyalty is often tested and sometimes, it doesn't last.A wave of defections is sweeping through the country sparking debate, raising eyebrows, and leaving many voters wondering where their leaders truly stand.From one party to another, politicians continue to switch allegiances… sometimes overnight, and often without explanation.For some, it's a matter of political survival.For others, it raises serious concerns about trust, accountability, and respect for the voters' mandate.Because when Nigerians cast their votes, they are not just choosing individuals…They are choosing parties, policies, and promises.So what happens when those choices suddenly change?Should politicians be free to move as they please…Or should there be consequences?Should Nigerian politicians be sanctioned for defecting?That's our focus today on Nigeria Daily.
In Nigeria's political space, alliances are rarely permanent and loyalties often shift when least expected.In recent days, the political scene has been stirred by fresh realignments and heated debates, following reports of key figures leaving the ADC coalition for a new platform the NDC.With these developments, questions are now being asked about what this means for Nigeria's opposition politics ahead of the next general election.Is this the beginning of a stronger, more united front? Or another cycle of political fragmentation that weakens the opposition once again?And today, we are looking at: Can the NDC become the new third force in Nigeria's politics?

NDC-12 might seem like a minor data change. But in practice, it affects far more than the code itself. In this episode, Reid Jackson and Liz Sertl speak with Rose Campasano, Principal Consultant of Global Compliance & Enterprise Systems at Criterion Consulting, about what companies need to do now to prepare for the NDC-12 transition. Rose explains how NDC-12 impacts labeling, scanning, software systems, and business processes across the healthcare supply chain. She also highlights the complexity of supporting both 10-digit and 12-digit codes during the transition, and why coordination across partners is critical. This is not just an IT task. It is a long-term program that requires alignment across finance, quality, regulatory, and operations teams.

A new survey is providing a clearer picture of the challenges businesses across the Twin Cities are facing due to the two-month long surge of federal agents. Neighborhood Development Center, or NDC, heard from more than 130 businesses and shared the results with a state Senate committee in February. Almost two thirds of respondents said the impact has been “high or critical.” Nearly 80 percent saw emergency financial assistance as the top priority. Natalia Mercado, director of business services with NDC, shared more of the findings with host Nina Moini.
What if the differences between us aren't the problem, but the gift? This January and February, NDC is stepping into a new series on Generations. We're exploring the stories, questions, and faith journeys that shape each generation.
Independent pharmacies are dispensing more prescriptions than ever—but too many are seeing their profits shrink month after month. In this episode of This Week in Pharmacy, hosts Todd Eury and CEO of MatchRx Johny Kello sit down with Saeed Dinno Director of Pharmacy for a group of independent pharmacies in MI. For a practical, plain-English breakdown of one of the most overlooked metrics impacting pharmacy profitability: GCR, let's dive into this! This episode isn't about policy debates, compliance theory, or vendor hype. It's a real-world conversation designed to help pharmacy owners, managers, and buyers understand how everyday sourcing and dispensing behaviors directly influence margin—often without anyone realizing it. Saeed explains what GCR actually measures, what it does not measure, and why two pharmacies filling the exact same prescription can end up with completely different financial outcomes. From convenience buying and emergency orders that become routine, to default NDC selection and a disconnect between the buyer and the bench, the episode highlights the subtle habits that quietly erode profitability over time. More importantly, the conversation delivers actionable steps pharmacies can implement immediately. Saeed outlines the core disciplines that improve performance—smarter buying strategy, better alignment between purchasing and dispensing, and simple operational guardrails that don't slow workflow. The focus is not on “working harder,” but on working differently. The episode closes with a clear, clip-worthy takeaway: one specific action pharmacy leaders can take this month to start moving the needle. If you've ever wondered why your pharmacy is busy but the numbers don't reflect it, this is an episode you'll want to listen to twice—and put into practice the very next day. Second segment of TWIRx is with Jonathan Adly, CEO of TJM Labs, to discuss his powerful new book, The Innovative Pharmacy: How to Build an 8-Figure Pharmacy One Idea at a Time. At a time when independent pharmacies are being squeezed by rising labor costs, shrinking reimbursements, and increasing operational complexity, Adly delivers a refreshing message: success is still possible—but it requires innovation, clarity, and execution. Jonathan shares why this book is not a “one-size-fits-all” business blueprint, but a collection of real-world frameworks inspired by hundreds of high-performing pharmacies across the U.S. and Canada. We explore the principles behind sustainable growth, including identifying your ideal customer, building scalable systems through automation, simplifying operations, and playing offense when the math works. This conversation is a call to action for pharmacy leaders ready to build smarter, faster, and stronger—one bold idea at a time.
