Gary Rivlin — Multi-Part, Part Two: Gary Rivlin turns to the clash of ideologies and corporate power plays defining the current AI era. Rivlin details the divide between accelerationists, who believe AI progress should not be hindered by regulation, and doomers, who fear catastrophic risks. He notes that while the public is often fearful, safety measures and government standards, similar to those developed for the automobile and railroad industries, are essential to building trust. The conversation addresses critical concerns regarding privacy, copyright, and the cultural biases of AI creators, who are largely a small group of young male gamers. The melodrama of the trillion-dollar race is exemplified by the November 2023 firing of Sam Altman by OpenAI's nonprofit board, which felt he was prioritizing commercial growth over safety. Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella expertly navigated this crisis, nearly hiring the entire OpenAI staff before Altman's reinstatement, and later hiring Mustafa Suleyman and the team from Inflection AI to bolster Microsoft's internal efforts. Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg has adopted an open-source strategy for Meta to challenge the dominance of closed-source rivals such as Google and OpenAI. Finally, the segment highlights a major shift in regulation; while the Biden administration sought common-sense testing requirements, the Trump administration and figures such as JD Vance favor an aggressive accelerationist stance to ensure the United States defeats China in the global race to dominate and cash in on artificial intelligence.

Weeks after Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky fired Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, the fallout is still reshaping Kyiv's political landscape. Lawfare Ukraine Fellow Anastasiia Lapatina is joined by Danylo Mokryk, a war crimes investigator at the Kyiv Independent and the author of a YouTube blog about domestic Ukrainian Politics, to unpack what's happened since Federov's departure. They discuss the dismissal of General Syrskyi, Fedorov's rejection of a hollow "vice prime minister" role, and his rise in the polls despite having no formal political ambitions. They also dig into why Zelensky refuses to explain his personnel decisions to the public, why the shrinking street protests may actually be a bad sign for the president, the reshuffling of appointments across Ukraine's security services, and what all of this says about the erosion of institutional trust during wartime.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra is proposing a “Power Hour” program that would give qualifying households up to two free hours of electricity daily during midday periods when solar energy is abundant. He says the plan could lower utility bills, reduce grid strain, and help working families cope with rising energy costs.

The Hockey Loons are back to debate how the Wild should deploy their powerplay structure and personnel with the departure of Matts Zuccarello. Is it as simply as replacing his spot with another player, or should John Hynes and the coaching staff look to make wholesale changes to the unit? One thing is clear: a powerplay with Quinn Hughes, Kirill Kaprizov, and Matt Boldy should be an automatic top-10 unit; but Luke Sims, Justin Hein, and Justin Wiggins discuss the tweaks they can make to ensure it remains a top-5 group in this years NHL season.

Why does every dictator, sooner or later, want to host the World Cup?What did a military junta that never wanted the tournament discover once the goals started going in?And when a hundred thousand people are dancing in the street, who is that actually working for?Peter Frankopan sits down with investigative journalist Karim Zidan, who has spent a decade tracking how autocrats turn football into propaganda — and who found his own way into the story as a teenager being dragged out of a stand by Egyptian riot police.Mussolini wrote the blueprint in 1934 and nobody has much improved on it since: host the tournament, invest in the team, let the collective joy do the rest. Videla's junta inherited a World Cup it didn't want and got away with it. Putin raised the pension age while Russia were in the quarter-finals. Qatar ended a Gulf blockade without conceding a thing. Zidan's argument isn't that you should stop watching. It's that escapism and willful ignorance are not the same thing — and that the people buying your club are not your friends.Karim Zidan's podcast series Power Plays, presented by the Human Rights Foundation, is at powerplays.xyz.

In an era of AI, data centers and electrification, rising power demand presents a range of challenges and investment opportunities across the energy sector. Bottlenecks in the supply chain, such as the backlog in gas turbine production, have grabbed headlines while the power-hungry digital infrastructure buildout lifts energy consumption. With the grid increasingly strained, commercial-grade fusion power is one innovative solution emerging in a rapidly evolving energy landscape. PGIM's Daleep Singh visits Commonwealth Fusion Systems CEO Bob Mumgaard for a conversation inside the facility that houses SPARC, the company's prototype for what could be the first commercially produced machine that generates net energy from fusion. This milestone – expected in 2027 – would be significant, paving the way for the first generation of fusion power plants. Like geothermal energy and small modular reactors, commercially viable fusion power could make the national grid better equipped to meet forecasts for intense electricity demand – using dispatchable, zero-carbon power that could be more resilient through periods of geopolitical strife. Institutional investors will continue to play a role in deploying the long-term capital needed to scale new technologies, expand the power grid, and fortify energy supply chains. Listen for an inside look at the future of fusion power. This episode explores: CFS's plans to establish the first ARC plant in the early 2030s – and its ambitions to build thousands more The engineering and capital hurdles to create grid-scale fusion power plants Industrial policy actions and public-private partnerships that could accelerate the fusion buildout Why fusion energy's supply chain is less vulnerable to geopolitical chokepoints than traditional fuel sources

Human beings. Our blessed lives, this gracious breath, this universe. And then the small infractions blown out of proportion, the disputes, the ego play. Human beings doing what they do best - destroy what's good.    And then men & women with their particularities starting to chip away at the very foundation on which their worth and purpose and joy is built on - the people they love. Simplicity is never the preferred choice. Power, ego, insistences. Relationships become a web. To capture, enrapture, to keep, to not let freedom find its course.   A word, a tone, a brusque denial. Sometimes the smallest infractions make the deepest holes. And then a refusal to acknowledge, reluctance to seek understanding, an alacrity to come to conclusions - to not forget, to hold onto hurts. The refusal to heal as memory teases ego.   Men are boorish, physically, in nature - often just as a masculine cover for uncertainty. Women too are boorish - as they instinctively understand the chinks in their males and find ways to control - stooping cleverly, as it were, to conquer.   Nobody makes a mess like human beings - indeed, they conjure new ways to hurt, blame, destabilise, destroy. They wallow in self-pity, hit out viciously when encountering emotional cul-de-sacs, not realizing that when they maim, they hurt themselves too and become equal victims.   If you liked this poem, consider listening to these other poems on marriage and its complexities -  The Games of Thrones We Play With Ourselves Marriage Made Me a Philosopher A Love Letter From a Frustrated Husband to an Exasperated Wife Subscribe to my newsletter 'The Uncuts' Follow me on Instagram at @sunilgivesup.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of the WTR Small-Cap Spotlight Podcast, Jolienne Halisky, CFO of AIB Data Centers Inc. (NYSE American: AIB), joins host Tim Gerdeman and WTR equity research analyst James Kisner. AIB is a power-first developer of AI and high-performance computing infrastructure. The company locks up executed utility power agreements before it breaks ground, then builds modular, liquid-cooled facilities that tenants lease and fill with their own GPUs. Halisky explains why power, not chips, is the real bottleneck in AI infrastructure, and how securing it first lets customers deploy compute months or years sooner. She covers the recent name change from BlockchAIn Digital Infrastructure, the shift from Bitcoin hosting to AI workloads, and how the build-to-suit model keeps hardware obsolescence off the balance sheet. Halisky also walks through the roughly 40 MW live today, a pipeline approaching 395 MW, the debt-free capital strategy, and the milestones investors should watch.

Our next live podcast: Residential real estate trends are redefining Louisville's growth and neighborhoods. Join us for a live Access Louisville recording as we dive into the latest market insights. The event includes networking, breakfast and a spirited discussion of the latest news in our area. Our panel includes: Stacy Durbin, Semonin Realtors, Jakeeva Lee, Greater Louisville Association of Realtors and Jon Mand, Lenihan Sotheby's. Tickets and registration are available here.The Olmsted Parks wrap around Louisville like a string of pearls. And we chat about this civic jewelry on this week's Access Louisville podcast.Mary Grissom, president and CEO of the Olmsted Parks Conservancy, is on the show this week for an interview with LBF Editor-in-Chief Shea Van Hoy. The two talk about the history of the parks and bringing the renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted to the city, how the conservancy works with Louisville Metro Government and how the system sets the city a part from its peers."This is the original. This is the national legacy for Louisville," she said.She also speaks about the Olmsted Parks Conservancy's plans for restorative work at Chickasaw Park, following a $5 million anonymous donation.After the U.S. Civil War, Grissom explained, Olmsted personally believed in public parks that were open to all — our disunity as a nation had to do with us not being able to see the humanity in each other. In the 1920s, the city of Louisville went against those values and segregated its parks. It was around that time that Chickasaw Park was created on 61-acres and the city brought back the Olmsted firm to design that park, giving it the dubious distinction as the only segregated park developed by the firm. That said, the park is a very special place for generations of Black Louisvillians. And because of that, Grissom said she was honored that the conservancy can use the $5 million donation to work on upgrades and restoration there, including lighting, benches, playgrounds and walking paths.There'll be a refreshed master plan that's created with the feedback of park users and nearby residents "to ensure that both nature and park amenities are tended to," she said.Elsewhere in the system, she talked about restoration of the pavilion at big rock in Cherokee Park, building conservancy membership and bridging the gap between generations of park users. "We want to make sure that Olmsted parks are here for everyone. Always. Period."Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Hour 3 of The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers the kind of truth-telling that the mainstream media refuses to touch. Former St. Louis County Police Chief Tim Fitch opens the hour pulling back the curtain on Sam Page's calculated power play — using the county jail staffing crisis as a political weapon against the county council while local law enforcement and ordinary St. Louis residents pay the price. Derrick Morgan of the Heritage Foundation joins to sound the alarm on a nation approaching its 250th birthday with only 31% of Democrats saying they are proud to be Americans, a Democratic Socialist wave threatening major American cities, and a SAVE Act showdown that will force every politician in Washington to show their true colors. Sarah Parshall Perry of Defending Education exposes how Missouri State University was running secret campus thought police — allowing students to anonymously report classmates for pronoun violations — until Defending Education took them to federal court and shut it down. Then Kim St. Onge closes the hour with the story that perfectly captures how far off the rails the radical left has gone — Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson declaring a transfemicide state of emergency in a city where thirty-nine people were shot over one weekend and not a single victim was transgender. Hour 4 is straight ahead and it only gets better from here.

Most people who are experimenting with power play and BDSM aren't doing anything extreme. They're just two people who trust each other, trying to "spice it up." But skipping the negotiation conversation because it feels like it has to be a mood killer is a rookie move that can lead to real problems. I'm not talking bruises here, I'm talking about emotional distance, shut down, and loss of libido. This episode is built around a real couple — smart, communicative, good at relationships — who did years of power play without ever having a proper negotiation conversation, because they both assumed that trusting each other was enough. It wasn't. The fallout was a sexless relationship, nervous system shutdown, and a lot of hurt that took real work to untangle. I want to help you avoid that entirely.Whether you're using restraints, doing impact, or just soft-topping: the negotiation is the first scene. Done right, it's not a clipboard and a liability waiver — it's where the anticipation starts, where you find out what your partner actually wants, where you start co-creating something that's going to be really, really good. This episode is about how to do that.In this episode:Why smart, aware people keep skipping BDSM negotiation — and what it actually costs themWhat subspace is, why your prefrontal cortex goes offline in it, and why that means the bottom has to be an architect of the negotiation, not a passengerThe real difference between topping/bottoming and dom/sub dynamics (and why accidentally agreeing to the wrong one causes relationship problems)How to make the negotiation desire-forward, not just limit-focused — starting with how you want to feel, who you want to be, and what energy from a partner opens you upWhy aftercare isn't an afterthought, and how to talk about it before you playWhere to find real community and credible resources if you want to go deeperWhether you're kink-curious or have been playing for years, this one's worth your time.Resources mentioned: Yes, No, Maybe Lists from various sources (pick your favorite): Babeland: https://www.babeland.com/babe-blog/how-tos/yes-no-maybe/Bex Caputo: https://www.bextalkssex.com/yes-no-maybe/Sunny Megatron: https://sunnymegatron.com/consent-sexual-boundaries-yesnomaybe/Get my free guide: Get Out of Your Head: A Starter Guide to Releasing the Pressure, Shame, and "Shoulds" Around Intimacy at https://laurajurgens.com/guideMore links: Substack at https://laurajurgens.substack.com/Pleasure Path Diagnostic here: https://laurajurgens.com/diagnostic/About me, testimonials, blog, bookings: https://laurajurgens.com/Wheel of Erotic emotions, go to: https://laurajurgens.com/wheelCopyright notice: All content in this podcast is copyrighted and copying, scraping, data mining, or using the content to train AI is prohibited.
