Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has been edged out of the headlines this past week, or so, by the administration's current flirtation with a constitutional crisis. But the DOGE team is still busy. One project on the office's agenda, originally reported by WIRED late last month, is to rewrite the Social Security Administration's code base—in other words, the agency's computer programs, which handle millions of Americans' personal and financial data. Brooke sits down with Clive Thompson, author of Coders: The Making of a New Tribe and the Remaking of the World, contributing writer to New York Times Magazine, and monthly columnist for Wired, to discuss the coding language under DOGE's microscope.

In the face of what is inarguably bad governance and fake—but spectacular!—technocracy (the list goes on and on, but we'll stop at AI-generated tariffs), we thought we'd take a moment to join the conversation about what good governance looks like. A couple of weeks ago, one of us reviewed Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson's new book, Abundance, for the New York Times, and then the other one of us reviewed the review. So we figured: let's work it out on the pod? No guests on this episode, just the two of us in a brass-tacks, brass-knuckles discussion of the abundance agenda and the goals of twenty-first century economic policy.We dive right into what the abundance agenda is and who its enemies are: innovators and builders against NIMBYs and environmentalists on David's account; techno-utopians who discount the environment and politics on Sam's. We agree that housing policy, at least, has helped the better-off create a cycle of entrenching their position through stymieing construction and production. We find another point of agreement on how Klein and Thomson's abundance agenda attempts to harness the power of the state to build, and that certain left-wing critiques are off base, but disagree about whether their proposal is a break from the neoliberal era of governance and what that even was. In some ways, we end up right where we started, disagreeing about whether the abundance agenda seeks to unleash a dammed-up tide that can lift all boats, or whether the abundance agenda leaves behind everyone but a vanguard of “innovators” in the technology and finance sectors. Let us know if you've got a convincing answer.This podcast is generously supported by Themis Bar Review.Referenced ReadingsWhy Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress―and How to Bring It Back by Marc DunkelmanStuck: How the Privileged and the Propertied Broke the Engine of American Opportunity by Yoni AppelbaumOn the Housing Crisis: Land, Development, Democracy by Jerusalem DemsasOne Billion Americans: The Case for Thinking Bigger by Matthew Yglesias“Kludgeocracy: The American Way of Policy” by Steven TelesThe Rise and Fall of American Growth: The U.S. Standard of Living since the Civil War by Robert GordonThe Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Order: America and the World in the Free Market Era by Gary GerstlePublic Citizens: The Attack on Big Government and the Remaking of American Liberalism by Paul Sabin“The State Capacity Crisis” by Nicholas Bagley and David SchleicherRed State Blues: How the Conservative Revolution Stalled in the States by Matt GrossmannThe Captured Economy: How the Powerful Enrich Themselves, Slow Down Growth, and Increase Inequality by Brink Lindsey and Steven Teles“Why has Regional Income Convergence in the U.S. Declined?” by Peter Ganong and Daniel Shoag“Exclusionary Zoning's Confused Defenders” by David Schleicher“Cost Disease Socialism: How Subsidizing Costs While Restricting Supply Drives America's Fiscal Imbalance” by Steven Teles, Samuel Hammond, and Daniel Takash”On Productivism” by Dani Rodrik

From the courtroom to the law office, AI is no longer a futuristic fantasy but a tangible force transforming how legal services are delivered. We'll explore the increasing adoption of AI tools to enhance efficiency, conduct research, and even predict litigation outcomes. However, this technological shift also brings forth critical considerations surrounding ethical obligations, regulatory compliance, data privacy, and intellectual property rights.

You're back. I'm back.GOTTA ASK YOU THIS:Instead of giving up on getting an audience to see your art because you'd rather scoop your cat's litter box for all of eternity than research SEO keywords for another second, What if “making content” felt more like divulging secrets to your best friend? What if content marketing was as easy for you as pickleball is for Serena? What if your content (non-derogatory) loaded people onto a proverbial express train to your work and created a scene even Warhol would envy?If making content felt fun, would you finally put yourself out there with your full chest?In today's episode, I'm going to give you a total reframe on content. And before I lose you, here's what this episode is NOT:* It's not about lack mindset!* It's not about believing in yourself!* It's not about changing your self-perception!* It's not about your fear of being seen!Don't get me wrong. I love to talk about those things, too. But that's not this episode.Today, I'm sharing one crucial shift in the actual act of making content that will make you feel like a celebrity multi-millionaire infused with their daily vitamin IV drip. In other words: invigorated.IN TODAY'S EPISODE, we'll answer these questions:* What qualifies as content and what qualifies as art?* What is the function of content for indie artists?* What are the different quality levels of content that artists should focus on?* How do you make boring “content marketing” into something more dynamic and easier to produce?* What are some examples of artists who are using this strategy and how does it work across industries?* Can content be part of your body of work without selling out or copying everyone else?* Will your art suffer if you focus on content?AND DON'T MISS:More Lore Less Bore, from the Twelfth House+ Podcast (A good place to start if you've never written a manifesto.)Vulfpeck's website.

Justin Ferrell, author of “Billionaire Wilderness: The Ultra-Wealthy and the Remaking of the American West,” dives deep into understanding of money moving to the West, the impact of an increasing population of the ultra-wealthy, and the issue of whether wealth can solve the problems wealth creates. Then, Jonathan Schechter, a member of the town council in Jackson, Wyoming, talks about how extremes of wealth are affecting life in mountain towns. And the husband-and-wife team of Mack Tilling and Ann Vivian talk about their sweet new business, Mack's Finest Gelato.

When Elon Musk hosted “Saturday Night Live” back in May of 2021, he went public with his Asperger's diagnosis, linking innovation and neurodivergence in a way that — in that moment — made him a role model for a community that's often struggled to find employment or acceptance. Since then, Musk has referred to that diagnosis to justify how out of touch his motivations seem with society's (or even humanity's), which is more controversial. And now that he's become arguably the world's most powerful person and his politics have turned in a direction that threatens the lives and livelihoods of millions, commentators are divided on what to make of his claims. Many accept his explanations, making sense of his political moves in terms of his autism, while others — including those in the autistic community — argue for separating his political conduct from his neurodivergence.There's more heat than light on this issue right now, so we reached out to someone who actually knows what they're talking about: Simon Baron-Cohen, a psychologist and author who is one of the world's leading experts on autism. His recent book The Pattern Seekers is essential reading for anyone interested in how people with autism or on the spectrum may have built not just Silicon Valley, but human civilization itself. Baron-Cohen joined us to discuss our changing understanding of autism, what it means to live in a tech-driven world increasingly shaped by leaders who are on the autism spectrum, and how we can balance the innovative drive of super-systematizers with the empathy that's critical to holding society together.A programming note: More Live conversations!Come back Monday, March 24, at 12:30 p.m. Eastern for a live call-in show with Anand.

Finding period-correct tires has become next to impossible or prohibitively expensive when restoring vintage mountain bikes. Bike industry veteran and vintage bike enthusiast, Wakeman Massie, recognized this void and founded House of Looptail to fill it. Wakeman has painstakingly recreated some of the most iconic tires in mountain bike and BMX history.In today's Bikes and Big Ideas conversation, Wakeman talks about some of the other well-known products he designed before getting into vintage tires, like the Travel Agent, Tooth Fairy, 1x1 Blowerdrive, Surly Singleator, and the legendary Surly 1x1 frame. Wakeman and Simon discuss the challenges of recreating tires when the drawings and molds no longer exist, why the new tires are better than the old ones, why vintage mountain bikes deserve to be ridden and not thrown in the landfill, and a whole lot more.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Catherine of Aragon (1485-1536), the youngest child of the newly dominant Spanish rulers Ferdinand and Isabella. When she was 3, her parents contracted her to marry Arthur, Prince of Wales, the heir to the Tudor king Henry VII in order to strengthen Spain's alliances, since Henry's kingdom was a longstanding trade partner and an enemy of Spain's greatest enemy, France. For the next decade Catherine had the best humanist education available, preparing her for her expected life as queen and drawing inspiration from her warrior mother. She arrived in London to be married when she was 15 but within a few months she was widowed, her situation uncertain and left relatively impoverished for someone of her status. Rather than return home, Catherine stayed and married her late husband's brother, Henry VIII. In her view and that of many around her, she was an exemplary queen and, even after Henry VIII had arranged the annulment of their marriage for the chance of a male heir with Anne Boleyn, Catherine continued to consider herself his only queen.With Lucy Wooding Langford Fellow and Tutor in History at Lincoln College, University of Oxford and Professor of Early Modern History at Oxford Maria Hayward Professor of Early Modern History at the University of SouthamptonAnd Gonzalo Velasco Berenguer Lecturer in Global Medieval and Early Modern History at the University of BristolProducer: Simon Tillotson In Our Time is a BBC Studios Audio ProductionReading list:Michelle Beer, Queenship at the Renaissance Courts of Britain: Catherine of Aragon and Margaret Tudor, 1503-1533 (Royal Historical Society, 2018)G.

In this conversation, Trevor welcomes in Santiago Capital's Brent Johnson to delve into the complexities surrounding the Mar-A-Lago Accord, a conceptual restructuring of US debt and the implications of a new monetary system under the Trump administration. The idea is a theoretical, and as of yet unconfirmed, plan under consideration by the Trump administration. It aims to restructure global trade and financial systems, specifically addressing the U.S. national debt and trade imbalances. Key objectives include weakening the U.S. dollar, incentivizing domestic fixed-asset investment, and fundamentally altering the terms of international security arrangements. It draws comparisons to historical currency accords like Bretton Woods and the Plaza Accord, suggesting a potentially profound impact on the global economic order.Brent and Trevor discuss the potential revaluation of the US dollar, the challenges of de-dollarization, and the intertwining of economic and national security policies. The dialogue emphasizes the need for a coordinated approach to address the urgent issues facing the US economy and the global financial system. In this conversation, Brent Johnson discusses the complexities of the U.S. economy, focusing on the monetization of the balance sheet, the implications of tariffs, and the evolving dynamics of global trade, particularly with China and Russia. He emphasizes the potential for a gold revaluation and its impact on financial markets, while also exploring investment strategies in uncertain times.This episode of Mining Stock Daily is brought to you by...

Republicans are riding high in Washington, with control of the White House, the U.S. Senate and the House. Back here in Rhode Island, the GOP faces a very different situation. The party holds just 14 of 113 legislative seats -- a number that remained unchanged after November's elections. One bright spot for the local GOP: the Republican leader in the Rhode Island Senate, Jessica de la Cruz. She's among the most visible members of her party in the state and she offered a sharp response to Democratic Governor Dan McKee's State of the State address last month. But de la Cruz has not been able to build the Republican presence in the Senate and it's unclear who will represent the GOP in the fast-approaching 2026 race for governor. So what are de la Cruz's plans? Can she form her critique of McKee into legislation? And what does she have to say about Democrats' voluminous criticism of President Trump? This week on Political Roundtable, I'm going in-depth with Rhode Island Senate GOP Leader Jessica de la Cruz.

On the campaign trail for DNC chair Ken Martin said the Democrats need a work horse not a show pony and, now that he has the job, he's being clear the ultimate goal is to win - to beat back this horrible, far right extremist Republican Party so the party can start making real change from a place of power. Join us as we discuss how he plans to do that. The mainstream media is a joke. Our country's under attack and they aren't even talking about it.

A discussion with Jason Baxter, Nicholas Colloff and Mark Vernon.The Abolition of Man is a series of three lectures given by C.S. Lewis in defence of objective value, arguing that modernity has undermined our humanity by uncoupling intellect from instinct. With hearts divorced from minds, first the world empties of presence, then life empties of meaning and people become “men without chests”.That Hideous Strength is a fictionalised version of the abolition, exploring the impact of transhumanism, aggressive rationalism, absent gods, and an inability to contemplate and know reality as it is.Till We Have Faces also tells of a world in which humanity is veiled and power rules, though in which gods make unexpected appearances and humanity is restored by learning to bear the weight of being once more.How do these works account for today? What remedies do they offer? Why might we keep reading them?0:00 Introductions01:47 The core ideas of The Abolition of Man04:46 All truths cannot be relative!09:38 The need for an aesthetic education12:13 Owen Barfield on objectivity and subjectivity 20:02 Chivalry and recovering spiritual practices28:25 A time in which everything is real30:56 The core ideas in That Hideous Strength39:48 The uninvited powers of material times41:48 The need for wisdom communities44:25 Why the Arthurian weaves in the story?49:10 Learning about and learning from53:21 Lewis's violence and the eruption of power56:48 The core ideas in Till We Have Faces59:45 The retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche01:01:52 When truth is too much to bear01:04:07 The recovery of humanity and the face of God01:06:02 The value of myth and moving from the linear01:09:30 Remaking or merely copying?

There’s a concept in business called the first-mover advantage. Basically, it means that if you’re the first company with a successful product in a new market, you have the opportunity to dominate the market and fend off rivals. But that advantage can be short-lived. Take Netscape Navigator, the first popular commercial web browser. Microsoft entered the field with Internet Explorer, and it wasn’t long before Navigator crashed. In AI chatbots, two of the first movers are OpenAI and Anthropic. But recently the Chinese company DeepSeek made a splash with an AI chatbot that it reportedly developed for a fraction of what its competitors have spent. Marketplace’s Stephanie Hughes spoke with historian Margaret O’Mara, author of the book “The Code: Silicon Valley and the Remaking of America,” about whether America’s artificial intelligence industry should be worried about newcomers like DeepSeek.

In President Trump's short time in office, he's already made sweeping changes to US public health policy—from RFK Jr.'s nomination to lead the health department to withdrawing the US from the World Health Organization. On the GZERO World Podcast, New York Times science and global health reporter Apoorva Mandavilli joins Ian Bremmer for an in-depth look at health policy in the Trump administration, and what it could mean, not just for the US, but for the rest of the world. President Trump has made it clear: he wants to slash government spending and remake institutions like the CDC, NIH, and FDA. But are those plans a much-needed correction to an overly bureaucratic system or prescription for the next pandemic? What do we need to know about bird flu and changes to USAID? Bremmer and Mandavilli discuss RFK Jr.'s influence in Trump's second term and what the future of health and medical policy in America could look like.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Apoorva Mandavilli Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

In his first days in office, Donald Trump set about radically reshaping America with a long list of executive orders. He declared a national energy emergency in America, promised to "drill baby drill," renamed the Gulf of Mexico, and ended many national environmental engagements, including the Paris Accords. On the immigration issue, he went after cartels, began deporting illegals, and confronted foreign governments like Colombia, which at first refused to take back its citizens. Many have called this Trump's effort to "repeal the 20th Century." It may seem radical, but is it all that bad? Trump has also called for an end to the income tax, the opening of an external revenue service (ERS), and more tariffs to help encourage manufacturing to return to the U.S. In this episode, we talk about what these executive orders mean for the next four years.

Take Home Notes: Indispensable: Remaking the Body of Christ1. Everyone Matters in Christ's BodyEach member of the body of Christ is indispensable, regardless of their role or visibility.The less obvious or less "honored" parts are clothed with greater respect in God's eyes.2. Unity Through InterdependenceJust as a physical body relies on all its parts, we rely on each other in the body of Christ.When one member suffers, we all suffer; when one rejoices, we all rejoice.3. Your Gifts Are for Building the KingdomThe Holy Spirit has given each of us unique gifts to strengthen the body and glorify God.Without your contributions, the church isn't at its full strength.4. Remaking the NarrativeLike Paul reimagined the story of the body, we are called to challenge societal norms that devalue others.Christ's body is not hierarchical but rooted in love, equity, and interconnection.5. You Are Beloved and IndispensableYour presence, talents, and service matter deeply to Christ and the community.Whether seen or unseen, celebrated or quiet, you are vital to the church's mission.Reflection Questions:How does knowing you are indispensable to Christ and His body change your perspective on your role in the church?What unique gifts can you offer to strengthen the body of Christ?How can you honor and uplift others in the body, especially those who may feel overlooked?Memory Verse:“Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.” – 1 Corinthians 12:2
What effects will generative AI have on coding and software engineering? Will it make anyone a coder? Will it just turn software engineering into copy/paste exercises? How will the top coders use AI to hack their own efficiency and productivity, and why is it so hard for the large tech companies to do the same things that the smaller ones do?Clive Thompson is a journalist for the New York Times Magazine and Wired as well as the author of multiple books, including Smarter Than You Think: How Technology Is Changing Our Minds for the Better and Coders: The Making of a New Tribe and the Remaking of the World.Greg and Clive delve into the cultural and societal impacts of the rise of coders, exploring how the coding mindset infiltrates various aspects of life and business. They also discuss the nature of work in software engineering, the shift towards iterative and agile methodologies, and the potential future shaped by generative AI and its implications for the field. Clive explains the paradoxes of efficiency, the challenges of maintenance over creation in coding, and how his life experience and interests converge in his upcoming book about cycling across the United States and the future of mobility. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Show Links:Recommended Resources:Max WeberNeil PostmanSamuel Taylor ColeridgePaul GrahamRay OzzieJeff AtwoodReid HoffmanGuest Profile:CliveThompson.netWikipedia ProfileSocial Profile on XProfile on LinkedInHis Work:Amazon Author PageSmarter Than You Think: How Technology Is Changing Our Minds for the BetterCoders: The Making of a New Tribe and the Remaking of the WorldWired ArticlesEpisode Quotes:Why do coders need an intense level of focus? If this thing happens [in coding], it will change this other thing. If that thing changes, this thing over here has to happen, and that's also reliant on this other thing. And it's so hard to get the structure of this in your head that you might spend several hours just looking at what you're trying to do, just thinking about it, sort of, getting it in your head. And when it's finally there, then you can begin to do the work. And of course, a couple interesting things fall out of this psychology. One is that you want to stay there. It took you three to four hours to get there, so you don't want to leave. So, you want to stay there for 10, 15, 20, 48 hours. The huge problem with managing coders.[18:15] This is a huge problem with managing coders is that they love learning, in a weird way. You would argue, isn't this an ideal employee? Someone who is eager to learn. Constantly learning new things. Very few employees are like, “I am just omnivorous in my spare time when I'm not being paid, I'm going to do more of this.” I mean, how many accountants at your company go home, and then from eight o'clock at night to two in the morning, do more accounting for fun, just voluntarily? That's a coder, right? And what they're doing is they're going home, and they're doing crazy new forms of software that they're not really allowed to do at work, but they often try and bring that in, and they'll be like, “I'm now obsessed with this framework. Hey, boss, can we use this? And it's like, “No! That framework is experimental and not reliable, and I want you to do the same old boring thing we've been doing for 30 years, because that is reliable.” And this is just a very hard thing. There's an excitement in the craft that a lot of software developers have that's not what the job requires.An interesting analogy between law and codingThat's a great analogy that I'd never heard or thought of before, which is that law needs to be patched the way that software needs to be patched. Because it's the same challenge, which is that [in] writing code and writing law, you're trying to create a system that other people are going to use. Humans are going to use it. And so you, the author of the law, or you, the author of the code, have to try sitting at your desk to imagine all the things that those dozens, hundreds, thousands, millions, or billions of humans will do with this system. And you can't. There's no way you can. So, you have to just put it out there and watch and see what they do, and then fix it as it goes, basically. And, of course, the more critical the system, or the less critical system, the more or less you can get away with.The mental character of coding is closer to that of an artist than it is to many other forms of engineering.Coders hate being interrupted, and that's part of why they're regarded as being such irascible weirdos. [It] is like, if you tap them on the shoulder, they'll bite you.There's something delightful about that mentality of focus. There's something maybe even [to] be learned from it. It's one of the reasons why I realized the more I talked to coders about their attentional needs, and the sweep and drama, and a sort of, epic mental toil, that it reminded me of novelists, of artists, of poets, of temperament. The mental character of coding is closer to that of an artist than it is to many other forms of engineering.
