That's why his mission to create delicious plant-based alternatives to popular Asian dishes both pushes culinary boundaries and involves a commitment to protecting the planet, animals, and society.  In this week's episode, David joins Evanna and Melanie to share his wisdom on how small, achievable steps to go meat-free can lead to significant changes in our food system and on how we can unite as a global team to build a more sustainable and compassionate world through our food choices.

Balances of powers are shifting as war continues on European soil, an global gas and food prices are rising. Regional powers and regional international organisations – such as the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation – that were long deemed of secondary relevance by the European political establishment – seem to grow in self-confidence and international agency. China's role in all of this is pivotal. Our conversation will explore what exactly are China's interests today and what tools and allies Beijing has to advance them.

The broader S&P500 rose +0.71% to 4,575.52, falling short of the 4,587.77 level needed to mark an exit from official correction territory. Consumer Discretionary climbed +2.67% to lead eight of the eleven primary sectors higher. Energy (down -2.56%) was the worst performing primary sector overnight as crude prices retreated, with Chevron Corp down -1.75% and Exxon Mobil Corp -2.81% Tesla Inc rallied +% after the electric vehicle giant disclosed plans to enable a stock split, which would be the second in two years. The Nasdaq rallied +1.31% to 14,354.90, the highest settlement for the technology-centric index since 9 February. Apple Inc rose +0.50% to log its longest winning streak in more than a decade, climbing for ten consecutive sessions. The latest modest rise came despite a report from the Nikkei Asian Review saying that the company intends to lower production orders for its new iPhone SE by roughly 2M to 3M devices for the June quarter. The U.S. tech giant also reduced orders for its AirPods earphones by more than >10M units for all of 2022, as the company predicted lukewarm demand and wanted to reduce the level of inventories. Apple also asked suppliers to make a couple of million fewer units of the entire iPhone 13 range than previously planned, but said this adjustment was based on seasonal demand. Netflix Inc rose +1.25% despite executives predicting that growth would suffer much more than expected at the beginning of 2022. The small capitalisation Russell 2000 settled flat.

Japan wants a cleaner, greener future, aiming to be carbon-neutral by 2050. But according to William Pesek, a Columnist at Nikkei Asian Review, that timeline could be more demanding and urgent, while also being contingent on Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga lasting the course in his role and his clean ambitions.

My guest for this episode is JJ Shurte. A post-apocalyptic writer and creator of the post-apocalyptic writing guide. I first met JJ on Twitter where we've exchanged many tweets about the apocalypse, writing, gaming and photography and other interesting topics. A little over a year ago, I interviewed JJ for my blog, and now that I have a podcast I thought he would be an interesting guest to have on. During our conversation we catch up on life, talk about the post-apocalyptic genre and some of the current events going on in Asia, where he lives. I had a great time talking with JJ and I'm glad he agreed to come on the show. Aside from our occasional exchanges on Twitter, we haven't really connected since our last collaboration, when I interviewed JJ for my Creating Awesome project. That was a little over a year ago and our entire world has changed since then. So before we get into the main topic of our discussion, JJ gives a brief background about himself, and what he's up to these days. End of the cold war Born in 1985 which is near the end of the cold war, JJ shares some memories he has of the events from the cold war at that early age. He remembers the Fall of the Berlin Wall and the Collapse of the Soviet Union. He also recollects some stories that his parents and other family members shared with him about the Soviet Union and the impending threat of nuclear war. Cold War 2.0 Increasing Tensions in Asia While the rest of the World is thinking about the effects of COVID19, protests and riots breaking out in major cities throughout the US and other countries, there seems to be an increase in tensions between the US and China and it centers on Taiwan. Just prior to this episode I read and article about this in the Nikkei Asian Review and we discuss this at length. Risk of war is rising rapidly, and China may seek to push tensions even higher Taiwan is potentially a powder keg that could kick off a major conflict between the worlds two largest super powers and lead to a shooting war. Post-Apocalyptic Fiction One of the books JJ has written is The Post-Apocalyptic Writing Guide and is partly the reason why we first got to know each other. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/andrewhall/message

Dịch bệnh do virus corona dĩ nhiên có tác động đối với nền kinh tế Việt Nam, vốn phụ thuộc rất nhiều vào kinh tế Trung Quốc, mà lại là quốc gia có chung biên giới với Trung Quốc. Trong phiên họp thường kỳ của chính phủ ngày 05/02/2020, thủ tướng Nguyễn Xuân Phúc cho biết là do tác động của dịch viêm phổi do virus corona, tăng trưởng kinh tế của Việt Nam trong quý 1 năm 2020 có thể giảm 1%. Ông Nguyễn Xuân Phúc cũng dự báo là nếu kinh tế Trung Quốc giảm mạnh do dịch bệnh kéo dài, điều này sẽ tiếp tục ảnh hưởng đến Việt Nam. Trong cuộc họp báo cùng ngày hôm đó, ông Trần Quốc Phương, thứ trưởng bộ Kế Hoạch & Đầu Tư, cho biết : "Các kịch bản tính toán cho thấy tác động của dịch bệnh này tới tăng trưởng kinh tế năm nay là rất nghiêm trọng". Hiện giờ chính phủ Hà Nội không điều chỉnh hoặc hạ chỉ tiêu tăng trưởng, tuy nhiên, bộ Kế Hoạch & Đầu Tư đã dự trù hai kịch bản tăng trưởng. Kịch bản 1 là, nếu dịch bệnh được kiểm soát trong quý 1, thì tốc độ tăng trưởng kinh tế năm nay sẽ đạt khoảng 6,27%. Trong kịch bản 2, nếu đến quý 2, dịch bệnh mới được kiểm soát, tỷ lệ này dự báo chỉ đạt 6,09% . Vấn đề là hiện nay chưa ai có thể đoán trước là dịch viêm phổi do corona virus sẽ diễn tiến ra sao, khi nào lên đến đỉnh điểm và khi nào mới chấm dứt. Trước mắt, những ngành sẽ bị sụt giảm mạnh nhất vì dịch bệnh là nông nghiệp, xuất khẩu, đặc biệt là hàng không, du lịch. Du lịch sẽ bị thất thu nặng Để ngăn chận sự lây lan của virus corona từ Vũ Hán, thủ tướng Nguyễn Xuân Phúc ngày 01/02/2020 đã ký quyết định công bố dịch ở Việt Nam. Chính phủ đồng thời đã cho ngưng toàn bộ các chuyến bay đến và từ Trung Quốc, ngưng cấp visa cho du khách Trung Quốc, cũng như những du khách ngoại quốc nào đã ở Trung Quốc trong hai tuần trước đó. Toàn bộ xe lửa chở khách đến và từ Trung Quốc cũng tạm ngưng hoạt động. Bản thân chính phủ Bắc Kinh kể từ ngày 27/01 cũng đã cấm dân Trung Quốc đi du lịch nước ngoài theo đoàn. Cho dù không bị cấm thì chắc là ít có người nào ở Trung Quốc nghĩ đến chuyện đi du lịch ở nước ngoài trong lúc này. Tất cả các biện pháp kể trên gây ảnh hưởng nặng nề đối với trước hết là du lịch, vì số du khách Trung Quốc chiếm tới khoảng 30% tổng số du khách ngoại quốc đến Việt Nam. Theo các số liệu chính thức, du khách Trung Quốc thậm chí chiếm đến một phần ba tổng số 18 triệu du khách đến Việt Nam năm 2019. Theo báo chí trong nước, trước khi các biện pháp hạn chế du lịch được ban hành, trong tháng 1/2020, mà năm nay trùng với Tết Nguyên Đán, đã có đến hơn 640 ngàn du khách Trung Quốc đến Việt Nam, tăng hơn 72% so với cùng kỳ năm ngoái. Nhưng trong tháng 2 này, chắc chắc là số du khách Trung Quốc đến Việt Nam sẽ giảm mạnh và số du khách ngoại quốc nói chung cũng sẽ giảm theo, bởi vì nhiều người sẽ ngại đến Việt Nam, quốc gia nằm sát cạnh ổ dịch Trung Quốc. Báo chí trong nước ngày 07/02 dự báo là dịch virus corona có thể khiến ngành du lịch Việt Nam thất thu từ 5,9 tỷ đến 7,7 tỷ đôla trong ba tháng tới. Xuất khẩu sang Trung Quốc sụt giảm Một lĩnh vực khác bị tác động mạnh, đó là xuất khẩu. Theo số liệu của Tổng Cục Hải Quan, trong tháng 1/2020, tổng trị giá xuất khẩu của Việt Nam sang Trung Quốc chỉ đạt khoảng 2,75 tỷ đôla, giảm đến hơn 35% so với tháng 12/2019. Nhập khẩu từ Trung Quốc cũng giảm hơn 20%. Ngoài lý do tháng Giêng năm nay rơi vào dịp Tết, một nguyên nhân khác khiến xuất khẩu sụt giảm mạnh như vậy đó là ảnh hưởng của dịch viêm phổi do virus corona tại Trung Quốc. Trong cuộc họp thường kỳ của chính phủ, bộ Công Thương Việt Nam dự báo là xuất khẩu của Việt Nam sang Trung Quốc có thể sẽ giảm từ 5 đến 8% so với cùng kỳ năm ngoái. Nhưng dự báo này dựa trên kịch bản là dịch viêm phổi do virus corona được kiểm soát trong vòng chưa tới 3 tháng, tức là kịch bản lạc quan nhất. Trong số các mặt hàng xuất khẩu sang Trung Quốc, bị nặng nhất là nông sản. Theo báo cáo của bộ Nông Nghiệp và Phát Triển Nông Thôn ngày 03/02, ngành hàng đầu tiên chịu tác động là sản phẩm hoa quả, cụ thể hiện nay quả thanh long và dưa hấu đang gặp nhiều khó khăn. Đây là hai mặt hàng chiếm tỉ trọng lớn trong số các nông sản xuất Trung Quốc trong dịp Tết và đang bị ứ đọng tại biên giới Việt - Trung do hai bên đều hạn chế giao dịch. Hai mặt hàng khác cũng sẽ gặp nhiều khó khăn trong xuất khẩu sang Trung Quốc, đó là sữa và thủy sản, theo Bộ Nông Nghiệp và Phát Triển Nông Thôn. Riêng về thủy sản, nhiều nhà nhập khẩu Trung Quốc đã thông báo cho các doanh nghiệp xuất khẩu thủy sản của Việt Nam là họ tạm dừng việc giao hàng cho đến hết ngày 9/2/2020, hoặc cho đến khi chính phủ Trung Quốc thông báo các hoạt động giao thương bình thường trở lại. Theo trang SeafoodSource ngày 05/02, Navico, một trong những nhà sản xuất cá tra hàng đầu ở Việt Nam, cũng dự báo xuất khẩu thủy sản sang Trung Quốc sẽ bị ảnh hưởng nặng nề trong quý 1 năm nay. Trong thông cáo đưa ra ngày 03/02, Navico nhận định là xuất khẩu cá tra sang Trung Quốc, khách hàng lớn nhất của công ty này, chắc là sẽ giảm trong đầu năm 2020 do tác động của dịch virus corona. Trước tình hình xuất khẩu nông thủy sản sang Trung Quốc có nguy cơ sụt giảm mạnh, bộ Nông Nghiệp Việt Nam cho biết sẽ làm việc với bộ Công Thương và các sứ quán Việt Nam ở các nước để giới thiệu nông sản Việt Nam và thăm dò các thị trường mới để đa dạng hóa các kênh xuất khẩu. Vậy, chính phủ Việt Nam nên có những biện pháp nào để hạn chế tác động của dịch virus corona, sau đây mời quý vị nghe phần phỏng vấn chuyên gia tài chính Huỳnh Bửu Sơn từ Sài Gòn. Huỳnh Bửu Sơn : Trong thời điểm hiện nay thì ưu tiên vẫn là làm sao ngăn chận được sự lây lan của dịch virus corona này. Chúng ta cũng thấy ảnh hưởng của dịch bệnh, trước mắt là đối với du lịch và ngay cả trong nước, những ngành về dịch vụ về ăn uống, về giải trí cũng bị ảnh hưởng rất nhiều. Rõ ràng là việc đi lại từ nông thôn đến thành thị, rồi việc tránh tập trung nơi đông người, nói chung việc phải bảo hộ, tránh lây lan cũng ảnh hưởng rất nhiều đến sản xuất. Điều quan trọng là nếu chúng ta thành công trong việc ngăn chận dịch bệnh, thì điều này sẽ tạo ra một ảnh hưởng tâm lý đối với người dân cũng như đối với sản xuất. Đó phải là ưu tiên, bởi vì trong cái tâm lý lo sợ như vậy, việc sản xuất hay kinh doanh đều bị ảnh hưởng hết. RFI : Trong bối cảnh hàng xuất khẩu sang Trung Quốc có nguy bị ứ đọng, Việt Nam có thể thi hành những biện pháp gì để đa dạng hóa các kênh xuất khẩu, để không quá phụ thuộc vào thị trường Trung Quốc ? Huỳnh Bửu Sơn : Việc chuyển hướng sang những nước khác, như là riêng đối với các mặt hàng nông sản hay các ngành công nghiệp thực phẩm, thì trong thời gian một, hai quý trước mắt, không dễ gì mà chúng ta có thể tìm những đối tác ở các nước khác để tiêu thụ lượng hàng mà Trung Quốc tạm thời ngưng nhập khẩu từ Việt Nam. Chiến lược xuất khẩu của Việt Nam từ lâu đã theo hướng đa dạng hóa, như là phát triển thị trường EU hay thị trường Bắc Mỹ, thậm chí đi tìm thị trường Nam Mỹ hay Phi Châu. Ngoài việc tham gia hiệp định thương mại với EU, Việt Nam còn đang triển khai hiệp định CPTPP, cho nên việc đa dạng hóa các nguồn xuất khẩu của Việt Nam đã được thực hiện trong nhiều năm nay và cũng đã thấy một số kết quả, chẳng hạn như đối với thị trường Mỹ, có thể nói là xuất khẩu của Việt Nam ngày càng tăng và xuất siêu từ Mỹ cũng khá là lớn. Cho nên tôi nghĩ là sắp tới, ảnh hưởng của nền kinh tế Trung Quốc đối với Việt Nam, nhất là về xuất khẩu sang Trung Quốc hay nhập khẩu từ Trung Quốc, sẽ ngày càng giảm đi, để nó không chiếm một tỷ trọng quá lớn trong kim ngạch xuất nhập khẩu hai chiều của Việt Nam. Nhưng để thay thế cho sự sụt giảm của (lượng hàng xuất khẩu sang) Trung Quốc thì có lẻ là chúng ta cần nhiều thời gian. Ảnh hưởng đến các công ty ngoại quốc Dịch viêm phổi do virus corona cũng ảnh hưởng đến hoạt động của các công ty ngoại quốc tại Việt Nam. Theo tờ Nikkei Asian Review ngày 06/02/2020, tập đoàn HOYA của Nhật Bản, công ty hàng đầu thế giới về đĩa thủy tinh dùng để sản xuất ổ cứng, đang xem xét khả năng "tạm thời tổ chức lại nhân sự" tại các cơ sở sản xuất của công ty này ở Việt Nam và Thái Lan. Một trong những phương án dự trù là tạm thời cho công nhân nghỉ việc. Tập đoàn Hoya dự báo là nhu cầu về ổ cứng ở Trung Quốc sẽ giảm mạnh do tác động của virus corona đối với sản xuất máy tính cá nhân và thiết bị trung tâm dữ liệu. Mà Hoya thì chuyên cung cấp đĩa thủy tinh cho các nhà sản xuất ổ cứng chuyên cung cấp cho các công ty Trung Quốc. Hiện nay, Hoya có hai nhà máy ở Việt Nam, một ở Hà Nội và một ở tỉnh Hưng Yên. Nhưng dịch virus có thể lại có một tác động tích cực cho nền kinh tế Việt Nam, đó là một số công ty ngoại quốc, như của Nhật Bản, sẽ dời cơ sở sản xuất từ Trung Quốc sang các nước khác ở châu Á như Việt Nam. Theo hãng tin Kyodo ngày 07/02/2020, các nhà sản xuất Nhật Bản đã bắt đầu chuyển cơ sở sản xuất ra khỏi Trung Quốc vì sợ các nhà máy tại nước này sẽ phải đóng cửa lâu dài do hậu quả của dịch virus corona. Các nhà phân tích được Kyodo trích dẫn nói rằng dời cơ sở sản xuất ra khỏi Trung Quốc không phải là một quyết định dễ dàng và tạm thời sẽ khiến chi phí tăng thêm, nhưng một số công ty Nhật không thể chờ cho đến khi dịch bệnh được kiểm soát. Toru Nishihama, kinh tế gia tại Viện Nghiên cứu Đời sống Dai-ichi dự báo là khác với dịch SARS những năm 2002-2003, rất có thể là Trung Quốc sẽ mất nhiều thời gian hơn để khống chế dịch virus corona.

Having a podcast with Moni Mohsin, face to face , was the much needed dose of laughter, humor, intellect, wisdom and experience. Honored and humbled to have her on 'dhaani' - A platform that wants to promote well-being, on the emotional, psychological, physiological, spiritual level - and laughter , humor and wit is an intrinsic feature of the human life. We spoke about privacy, laying safe boundaries, the need for solitude, social media and intrusiveness, and last but not the least Moni was generous to share her "Social Butterfly" snippets with us. Moni Mohsin was born in 1963 in Lahore, Pakistan. Since her father was from the landed gentry of Punjab and her mother from a business family in Lahore, she grew up between Lahore (where she attended a strict convent school run by Irish nuns) and Okara, where she ran wild with peasant children. Like her siblings before her, she left Pakistan at the age of sixteen to attend boarding school in England. Having completed her A'levels, she proceeded to Cambridge to read for a tripos in Archaeology and Anthroplogy. In 1986 she returned to a Pakistan gripped tight in the iron fist of General Zia-ul-Haq. She spent the next two years working for an environmental agency, where she produced Pakistan's first environmental news magazine, Natura. And then in 1988, when General Zia was assassinated and space for political discourse opened up once again, she moved to a new publishing venture, The Friday Times, Pakistan's first independent weekly. She spent seven years there, rising eventually to the position of Features Editor. She married in 1995 and moved back to England with her husband. Since then she has freelanced for a number of Pakistani magazines including The Friday Times, Libas and Zameen. She has also contributed short fiction to the creative writing issue of Wasafiri 2000 edited by Aamer Huussein and Bernadine Evaristo and an anthology on Lahore edited by Bapsi Sidhwa and published by Penguin India. She has also authored a travel book on Lahore published by the Guide Book Company and is currently in talks for the publication of her journalistic writings with Vanguard Books Pakistan and Penguin India. The Ceremony of Innocence is her first novel. She has two children and divides her time between Lahore and London. Moni Mohsin is a Pakistani born novelist and freelance journalist based in London. She has authored two novels, the award winning The End of Innocence (Penguin UK) and Duty Free (Vintage) which was adapted for Radio Four's Book at Bedtime. Her long running satirical column in the weekly newspaper, The Friday Times in Lahore, has been published by Vintage as The Diary of a Social Butterfly and its best selling follow up, The Return of the Butterfly, by Random House India. Her journalistic work has appeared in The Guardian, 1843, Prospect, The Literary Review, Vogue, The Times of India and Nikkei Asian Review. Last year her article ‘Austenistan' (published in 1843) was shortlisted for a Foreign Press Association award. She does book reviews, cultural features, political pieces, satirical columns and celebrity interviews and writes on topics ranging from domestic workers in the Middle East to Bollywood.

According to Nikkei Asian Review, there are 900 tech startups in Malaysia where the government has been supporting them with numerous initiatives, from tax holiday for up to 10 years for qualifying startups to the numerous education/talent pools, initiated by various federations in the country. And to build a sustainable entrepreneurship ecosystem, Malaysia launched MaGIC to further foster and develop a vibrant startup ecosystem in Malaysia and beyond. However, with new technologies changing business models and affecting the Malaysia economy by disrupting numerous businesses as well as creating new possibilities, the entrepreneurial mindset is also needed to turn ideas into actions.

US equity markets stormed back to post solid gains following the release of the September jobs report that quelled recession fears without downgrading the odds of further monetary policy easing from the Federal Reserve - Dow up +373-points or +1.42% , recovering from an earlier -335-point/-1.3% slide. The broader S&P500 rallied +1.42%, with Financials (up +1.93%) and Information Technology (+1.71%) leading all eleven primary sectors into positive territory. The S&P 500 also moved back above both its 100-day (2,927.04) and 5-day (2,942.08) moving averages. The NASDAQ +1.4%. Apple Inc rose +2.8%, buoyed by a report in the Nikkei Asian Review that the company has asked suppliers to increase production of its iPhone 11 models by up to 8M units, or ~10%. Sources cited by the Nikkei Asian Review said that the recent surge in iPhone orders is concentrated in the cheapest iPhone 11 model and the iPhone 11 Pro model, while Apple has slightly revised down orders for its top range model, the iPhone 11 Pro Max, which has a starting price of US$1,099. For the week, both the Dow (down --0.92%) and S&P500 (-0.33%) logged their third consecutive weekly decline, while the Nasdaq posted its first weekly rise (+0.54%) in the past three.

Console makers are weighing their options following a period of economic unease between China and the US and, according to sources speaking to Nikkei Asian Review, are considering moving some game console manufacturing out of China as a result. As the three companies warned in an earlier letter to the Trump administration, a significant shift in production like that would cause a significant supply chain disruption and raise console costs in the process. Rumors of the shift also come as both Sony and Microsoft are building toward the release of their next-generation consoles, while Nintendo reportedly has an unannounced new Switch model or two in the works as well. #sony #sonya #ps #photography #sonyalpha #playstation #a #canon #photographer #iii #gaming #nature #photooftheday #photo #nikon #samsung #mm #portrait #videogames #f #love #gamer #instagood #ig #travel #games #instagram #ii #like #bhfyp #d #iphone #landscape #m #xbox #huawei #picoftheday #alpha #game #sonyphotography #music #r #xiaomi #pro #s #art #naturephotography #model #portraitphotography #sonyimages #streetphotography #hdr #wedding #lightroom #follow #fujifilm #godofwar #sunset #sigma #macro --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/pixel-sultan/support

It’s crazy to think it’s been a year since we started working with our friends Eric McKay and Scott Apicella from Hardywood Park Brewery! Time flies when you are selling beer, which is why we have a DeLorean! The guys join us at the bar to tell us about what’s been happening in Richmond (and Charlottesville!), reveal their historic Jamestown beer, and bring the goods to try! They include The Original Five Flavors Ale, Dreamlike NE DIPA, Cuvée Peach White Wine Barrel-Aged Belgian Tripel, and Bourbon Cru Barrel-Aged Belgian Quad! We start the news with a followup to an item from last month. Back in July, Uproxx profiled some Instagram beer influencers to follow. A backlash then ensued over a Brewbound podcast that disparaged some of the women in that list. Our buddy Steve found Vinepair sharing Uproxx, Brewbound, and the Internet gaze on women in beer, which lead us to Uproxx itself talking with these same female beer Influencers, discussing sexism and representation in the industry. Next it’s a potential return of MegaMergerMania courtesy of The Motley Fool as they examine 3 reasons AB-InBev will probably try to buy Craft Brew Alliance, followed by Fox News visiting a beer festival that banned offerings with sexist names and labels. Then it’s Nikkei Asian Review reporting that Kirin is aiming to become Japan's top brewer with a jump into craft beer,and Reuters singing the praises that Guns N' Roses has settled a lawsuit over Guns 'N' Rosé beer. We wind up the week with The Daily Mail’s piece on a food historian who has recreated ancient Egyptian beer, and then Ohio.com shows who’s coming to the inaugural Pro Football Hall of Fame Craft Beer Fest! Last week’s #caskquiz asked when you visit a craft brewery, do you take the family? Just go with friends? Mix it up? This week we want to hear your take on the Uproxx/Instagram uproar! We so love hearing from you! Please send in feedback and beer suggestions by calling us at (919) 502-0280, Tweeting us, following our Instagram or friending us on Untappd, posting on and liking ourFacebook page, or emailing us!

Google ha apelado una multa de 1.500 millones de euros de la Comisión Europea por sus supuestas prácticas publicitarias "ilegales". En marzo, el titan americano de la tecnología recibió una multa sobre su negocio de AdSense por priorizar sus propias ofertas. Google rechaza la acusación de que AdSense era anticompetitivo. Desde 2017, la UE ha acusado a Google de otras dos multas por un total de más de 7.000 millones de euros por prácticas anticompetitivas vinculadas a Android y Google Shopping.   Ver artículo original: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2019/06/04/google-appeals-eu-fine-illegal-advertising-technology/   Fiat Chrysler ha rechazado un acuerdo para fusionarse con Renault luego de que la junta de la automotriz francesa pospuso su decisión sobre la propuesta. Una fusión entre Renault y Fiat habría creado al tercer fabricante de automóviles más grande del mundo, con un valor aproximado de $ 40 mil millones. Las dos compañías de automóviles buscaban fusionarse para reducir los costos de producción mediante la combinación de recursos, dice CNBC.   Ver artículo original: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-06-05/fiat-withdraws-merger-bid-after-renault-delays-decision-on-combination   Muchas personas exitosas atribuyen su productividad a un solo hábito: levantarse temprano. El CEO de Apple, Tim Cook dice que se levanta alrededor de las 4 a.m. Para aprovechar las horas de la mañana tranquila. Sin embargo, los expertos en sueño ahora dicen que despertarse temprano no tiene efectos beneficiosos para la salud, en realidad podría ser perjudicial para usted. No solo dormir demasiado empeora los estados de ánimo y disminuye las capacidades cognitivas, sino que despertarse muy temprano puede dañar su ritmo circadiano, lo que también puede provocar efectos negativos en el comportamiento.   Ver artículo original: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/05/style/self-care/waking-up-at-4-am.html   YouTube dice que ha "suspendido" la capacidad de una estrella con millones de fanáticos (Steven Crowder) de ganar dinero con sus videos, luego de una gran reacción   La decisión se produce apenas un día después de que YouTube se enfrentara a una reacción importante luego de que se negara públicamente a tomar medidas contra Crowder después de que se supiera que la estrella había hecho constantes comentarios homofóbicos y racistas sobre el periodista de Vox Carlos Maza. Crowder, que tiene 3.8 millones de suscriptores, se refiere con frecuencia a la sexualidad y etnicidad de Maza en su programa, utilizando frases como "lispy queer" y un "gay latino" para describir al periodista.

      Episode #23 Early on the morning of March 22nd, the Nikkei Asian Review published an article with the headline "Japan to warn Hong Kong-based crypto exchange: Criminal charges to be filed if Binance fails to halt Japan operations." Yikes -- It certainly got our attention! The FSA has been clamping down on cryptocurrency venues after a $500 million theft from Japanese exchange Coincheck in January. CZ, the CEO of Binance, took to Twitter saying, "Nikkei showed irresponsible journalism. We are in constructive dialogs with Japan FSA, and have not received any mandates." Within minutes of the news story circulating, bitcoin took a swift nosedive, dropping over 5% from $9040 USD to trade at just above $8600 later in the day, at the time of reporting. Do you think there any truth to this or is it just another case of irresponsible journalism as CZ claims?

The Nikkei Asian Review recently published a piece on rather surprising Moon Jae-in supporters leading up to the special election he won to replace former President Park Geun-hye who current remains jailed following her impeachment.

In this episode Simon and Aden are joined by regulars Ghela and Sarah for the news. This week we discuss all things politics on both sides of the pond, especially THAT Dodd Frank legislation repeal proposed by Trump, that seems to have flown slightly under the radar while we were all looking the other way, watching Comey’s testimony- and what this would mean for banks and their customers if it happens. Also on the table is the UK election result and the potential “Brexit dilemma”: other European fintech hubs could take the talent and budget away from London – will London fight back? They also tackle whether it’s possible for incumbents to ever truly become fintech firms, or will innovation always get bogged down in middle management? On the flipside is Coinbase, who has just achieved unicorn status with their latest valuation – is it a game-changer to have a cryptocurrency firm inducted into unicornland? The team also debate whether it’s a big deal that Apple have announced a peer-to-peer payment service, to compete with Venmo; and with Atom postponing the launch of their current accounts, are they struggling to be truly digital? Additionally they all agree that Ant Financial is a beast but it is not yet a bank, can it successfully make the switch? Finally, how do we feel about Australia’s attempt to rename its currency the Dollarydoo – and can the change of a currency’s name affect it’s worth?
