When you walk through the door after work, are you actually present or are you still running the day's to-do list in your head?Is there ever a “good” time to have a baby in the middle of specialist training and how do you fund it?How do the best dentist-parents you know protect time with their kids without their careers stalling?And can technology actually give you hours back — or is that just another thing to feel guilty about?This is one for the dads. In this Interference Cast episode, Jaz sits down with Dr Sunny Marwaha — a dentist completing part-time specialist training in prosthodontics at Guy's, who became a father right in the middle of it. It's not a clinical episode. It's an honest conversation about doing the hardest career stretch (training, buying practices, building a name) at the exact same time you're raising young children — the sleep, the money, the guilt, and the strategies that actually help. Two dentist dads, comparing notes.What You'll Take From This EpisodePriority management, not time management — Decide what this season of life is for, and protect it; priorities shift as the kids grow.Leave the day at the door — both directions — The driveway is dad mode, the clinic is showtime; you can't take work home or home to work.Run the family like a small business — Regular family meetings and a “mind like water” system can help carry the load without living in your head.Use AI to buy back time — Make use of dictated notes, auto-drafted letters, and turning papers into audio for the commute. This is leverage, not cheating.Specialise or self-direct? — An honest filter for whether a structured training pathway or private courses and mentorship suits you better.Highlights of This Episode00:00     Teaser00:42     Daddy Dentist: Balancing Fatherhood and Dentistry03:42     Should You Specialise or Learn Through Private Courses?10:12      How to Time Having Kids Around Specialist Training13:32     Paternity Leave for Dentists: What's Realistic?16:42     Funding Specialist Training With a Young Family20:02     Why Family Support Is a Privilege, Not a Given22:57     Time Management vs Priority Management23:42     The Two Moments With Your Kids That Matter Most29:12      Protecting Sleep, Fitness and Your Mental Health30:13     Midroll39:03    Top Tips for Dentist Dads41:53      Using AI to Buy Back Time for Your Family45:53     Run Your Family Like a Small Business53:33     How to Cut Kids' Screen Time (and Make It Stick)59:23     Life After Specialist Training: A Shorter Week59:57     OutroFrom the GuestDr Sunny Marwaha is a dentist completing part-time specialist training in prosthodontics at Guy's (King's College London).

Episode 218: This episode was recorded August 25, 2026 and published September 1, 2026. Ant Pruitt and I have a discussion that looks at 2026 in all the things that are taking place with technology and our cameras, focusing on our smartphones.

Actually, two. Ant Pruitt is a model and commercial actor. He spent most of his professional life as an IT support member as well as a photographer covering local sports, events, and more.

Jeg har læst adskillige bøger om emnet og endda lavet et helt kursus i "Digital Ro" (til mit forløb Daglig Ro). Alligevel har jeg i lange perioder haft svært ved at styre min egen brug af min smartphone til min egen store frustration og ærgelse. Men noget har ændret sig - og det deler jeg med jer i dag på podcasten. Lyt med herunder i dagens episode, hvor jeg fortæller:Hvad der fik mig til at skære drastisk ned på min smartphone brug fra den ene dag til den andenHvorfor jeg har kunnet holde de gode vaner og er villig til at droppe sociale medier, selvom de er en del af min virksomhedHvad der har motiveret mig allermest og hvad, jeg bruger min tid på i stedetEt regnestykke, der måske vil chokere dig, som det chokerede mig3 ting jeg anbefaler dig at gøre, hvis din smartphonetid er stukket helt af, og du længes efter tid til kreative sysler, bevægelse og andet meningsfuldt

Neoborn Caveman is back with the untamed, unedited live radio show — marble-mouthed, vivid, nothing planned. He starts on America founded as a republic by the people for the people, and on how little of the official story still stands. From there NC looks at a UK car park where cash is banned, only the app still counts, and the fine is what you get for showing up with money and a working phone — sovereignty taken one payment at a time. After that Neoborn turns to Chinese cabbage dipped in formaldehyde and sold in Australia, but fear not, he offers a solution anyone can do to stay healthier. Later he takes the Havasupai trail in Arizona, a mother slashed after asking for directions. NC then investigates Network for Hope in Kentucky, the organ outfit HHS began decertifying under RFK Jr. after procurement started while patients still showed signs of life. He closes on the 1980s Pizza Hut revival and the real reasons people are driving back to those rooms, and finally on schools that spent three trillion and left three in ten proficient, and on heaven starting from within.Music guests: Big Sexy, Carlyle, Inoxidables, Van Hechter 00:00:00 On This Day Today - (no freedom yet)00:06:06 Big Sexy: Hiding in Romeo00:09:46 Fined for Not Having the App00:18:28 Carlyle: Without the Weed00:21:51 Formaldehyde Cabbage and Eating Where You Live00:30:14 Inoxidables: Sirena00:33:59 Wash Your Fruit and Veggies: Pesticides, Glyphosate, and Bayer00:44:00 Neoborn Caveman: Counterfeit Love00:46:28 A Hike, a Knife, Tolerating Crime00:56:08 Van Hechter: Boy Problems01:00:20 Organ Harvesting Comes Home: Network for Hope01:06:57 Big Sexy: This City Knows My Name01:10:17 Retro Pizza Hut, Hollowed-Out Schools, and Heaven Within01:23:05 Neoborn Caveman: Final ShowKey TakeawaysAmerica was founded as a republic by the people for the people.

How much technology should kids really be using at school?

Are screens replacing books, handwriting, play, movement, teacher interaction, conversation, or creative problem-solving?Melanie and Dr. Stacey discuss:Healthy screen time and technology use at schoolWhy teacher interaction and relationships matterTechnology use and young childrenWhat kids need to learn before AI does the work for themHow parents can ask schools better questions about classroom technologyPractical ways to create a more human-centered learning environmentTechnology is a tool—not the foundation. The child is the foundation.If you're concerned about kids and screens, technology in schools, digital learning, or AI in education, this episode will give you practical insights and questions you can take to your child's school.Support the showDon't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave a review if you enjoy the episode.

Mein neuer Podcast-Kanal "Stress dich richtig" ist online - schau' unbedingt vorbei! Wir wissen oft ganz genau, was uns guttun würde – mehr Bewegung, Grenzen setzen, besser schlafen, weniger Smartphone, klarere Prioritäten. Und trotzdem setzen wir es nicht um. Warum? In dieser Folge geht es um die Knowledge-Behavior-Gap und um zwei Wörter, die einen überraschend hilfreichen Blick auf unsere Stressbewältigung ermöglichen: einfach und leicht. Denn einfach ist nicht automatisch leicht. Einfach bedeutet: Es ist nicht kompliziert. Leicht bedeutet: Es ist nicht schwer bzw. kostet uns wenig Überwindung. Ein „Nein" auszusprechen, ist beispielsweise ziemlich einfach. Es im entscheidenden Moment gegenüber Kolleg:innen, der Führungskraft oder Menschen, die uns wichtig sind, wirklich zu sagen, kann dagegen verdammt schwer sein. In der Folge schauen wir deshalb auf eine 2×2-Matrix für die Umsetzung: •⁠ ⁠Einfach & leicht: Warum mache ich es trotzdem nicht? Will ich es wirklich – oder mag ich nur die Idee davon? •⁠ ⁠Einfach & nicht leicht: Welche emotionalen Hürden, Glaubenssätze oder Gewohnheiten machen mir die Umsetzung schwer? •⁠ ⁠Nicht einfach & leicht: Welche Fähigkeit, Technik oder welches Hilfsmittel fehlt mir, um es unkomplizierter zu machen? •⁠ ⁠Nicht einfach & nicht leicht: Ist das gerade wirklich der richtige Hebel – und wie kann ich die Hürde verkleinern? Anhand von Beispielen wie Yoga, Sport, Grenzen setzen, Kommunikation und Training zeige ich dir, wie du herausfinden kannst, woran deine Umsetzung tatsächlich scheitert. Denn gerade bei gesunder Stressbewältigung reicht Wissen nicht aus. Über Sport nachzudenken, baut noch keinen körperlichen Stress ab. Über Grenzen nachzudenken, setzt noch keine Grenze. Und eine gute Idee verändert noch keinen Alltag. Die Frage für diese Woche: Was möchtest du eigentlich schon länger umsetzen und ist es für dich einfach, leicht, beides oder keines von beidem? Außerdem in dieser Folge: Ich erzähle von meinem Besuch beim Frühstücksfernsehen mit meinem neuen Buch „Die 1-Minuten-Strategie gegen emotionalen Stress", von der Aufregung davor und davon, was mein Nervensystem nachts daraus gemacht hat. Zudem spreche ich über einen Gesundheitscheck, meine persönliche „Speed of Implementation" und eine sehr persönliche Podcastfolge mit Lukas Klaschinski, in der es unter anderem um meine Erfahrungen mit Depressionen und Psychiatrie geht. Triggerwarnung: In der genannten Podcastfolge mit Lukas werden Depressionen, Psychiatrie und psychisch belastende Erfahrungen thematisiert.  

Konsole an, Spiel rein, abtauchen - so sah Gaming lange aus. Heute stecken die Spiele in fast jeder Hosentasche auf dem Smartphone. Games wie Fortnite oder Roblox sind mehr als ein Zeitvertreib: Sie gelten als soziale Räume, in denen Menschen Freundschaften pflegen, miteinander konkurrieren, Geld ausgeben. Auf Plattformen wie Discord werden auch gesellschaftliche Konflikte ausgetragen. Gaming ist Alltag. Wie wichtig diese Welt auch für die Politik geworden ist, zeigt die diesjährige Gamescom. Zum ersten Mal besucht mit Frank-Walter Steinmeier ein Bundespräsident die Spielemesse; Demokratie ist ein Schwerpunkt in diesem Jahr. Denn wo Millionen Menschen zusammenkommen, stellt sich auch die Frage nach den Regeln des Zusammenseins: Wer bestimmt sie in digitalen Spielwelten? Wer verdient an unserer Aufmerksamkeit? Warum interessieren sich rechtsextreme Kräfte für Gaming-Communitys? Und kann man durch Computerspiele lernen, wie Demokratie funktioniert? Darüber spricht Tag-Moderatorin Hadija Haruna-Oelker mit hr-Reporter Stefan Kiske live von der Gamescom, dem Medienwissenschaftler und Games-Forscher Hanns Christian Schmidt, Maik Fielitz vom Institut für Demokratie und Zivilgesellschaft in Jena und Felix Zimmermann von der Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung. Podcast-Tipp: Quarks Daily GAMING - Was macht es mit Körper, Psyche und Beziehungen? Rund 34 Millionen Menschen in Deutschland spielen regelmäßig auf Konsolen, dem PC oder auf dem Smartphone. Gaming gehört zu uns. Trotzdem halten sich viele Klischees hartnäckig: Gamer seien übergewichtig, sozial isoliert oder gar süchtig. Aber was ist wirklich dran? Und was wissen wir aus der Wissenschaft über die Auswirkungen des Spielens auf Körper, Psyche und Beziehungen? https://www.ardsounds.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:9168f9a173bac893/

Revisiting an important episode this week with Dr. Alison Yeung, family physician and creator of @thesmartphoneeffectmd, where she talks all things smartphones, social media, and (of course) kids. Why are so many parents struggling to set screen time boundaries? How is technology impacting our kids' mental health, attention spans, and motivation? And how do we navigate platforms like Roblox, YouTube Kids, and even school-issued iPads?Renee and Dr. Yeung get real about balancing technology use, setting routines, and why it's not just about “parenting harder”—it's about pushing back against industries designed to hook our kids. If you've ever wondered when to give your child a phone (or if they really need one), how to protect their downtime, or how your phone habits shape theirs, this is a must-listen.FOLLOW ALISON:Instagram: @thesmartphoneeffectmdTHANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!AquaOmega - For your daily dose of Omega-3's, go to myaquaomega.com/MOMROOM and use code MOMROOM for 20% off.Bellesa - Today's episode is sponsored by Bellesa Boutique!

Amit Chachek spent two decades building award winning visual effects for brands like Walmart and Coke before founding WeR AR, an augmented reality company built to fix the physical retail shelf.His core argument is simple. Retailers know everything about their backroom inventory and everything about the point of sale, but the space in between, the shelf itself, is a blind spot.Amit walks through how WeR AR uses a standard smartphone camera, no robots or fixed shelf cameras required, to let employees detect, verify, and fix shelf issues in real time. He explains the RGIS partnership, how data ownership is split between the platform and the retailer, and why he still believes smart glasses are three to five years from being useful in the enterprise.Listeners get a grounded look at where AI actually helps on the retail floor right now, and where the hype around wearables and robotics still outpaces reality.Website: https://expanio.com/Podcast website: https://expanio.com/commerce-untold-podcast/Eitan Koter's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eitankoter/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@expanioglobalGuest: Amit Chachek, CEO, WeR ARAmit Chachek's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amitchachekWeR AR: https://wer.ioKey Takeaways: • The retail shelf hasn't changed in 100 years, and that gap between backroom and POS data is where retailers are blind • A regular smartphone camera can replace shelf scanning robots and fixed cameras, cutting hardware and ROI headaches • Augmented reality on shelf can cut daily shelf management tasks by fifty to eighty percent • Humans empowered by AR outperform robots because robots can detect problems but cannot execute fixes on the shelf • Vision-language models still can't consistently understand spatial environments from video, which is why smart glasses remain years away from real utility • Winning enterprise retail deals takes one internal champion willing to test in real stores for over a year before wider rolloutChapters:[00:16] Introduction: From VFX to Retail Shelves[01:11] Amit's ADHD Story and the Road to Entrepreneurship[04:20] Leaving Media and Entertainment for Augmented Reality[09:40] How AI Reshaped WeR AR's Roadmap[13:43] Pitching Shelf Intelligence to Store Managers[15:23] Smartphones vs. Shelf Scanning Robots[17:20] The RGIS Partnership and Retail Data Ownership[22:19] Smart Glasses, Qualcomm, and Why Phones Still Win

What if ancient myths are not simply stories, but encrypted records of forgotten history? And what if the technologies reshaping modern life are not separate from us, but extensions of human consciousness?In this episode of The Biohacking Standards, filmmaker, podcast host and former professional musician Ben Stewart joins Ashley Grace for a thought-provoking conversation about consciousness, creativity, mythology, hidden history, technology and human evolution.Ben has built his career exploring ideas that challenge conventional narratives and encourage people to think for themselves. Rather than creating films that tell audiences what to believe, he uses storytelling, imagery, music and emotion to open new possibilities. His goal is not to replace one accepted narrative with another. It is to inspire curiosity about who we are, where we came from and what we may be capable of becoming.One of the episode's most fascinating ideas is Ben's view that mythology may serve as a form of encrypted history. Stories carried across generations may contain memories of real people, events and civilizations—even if those memories were gradually transformed into symbols. Ben discusses lesser-known historical accounts, including reports of mummified remains found in Kentucky, and asks whether parts of humanity's past have been forgotten, misunderstood or excluded from the history most of us were taught.The conversation also turns toward technology and its powerful effect on human behavior. We often think of technology as something external: a tool we create and control. Ben offers a different perspective. Smartphones, social platforms, artificial intelligence and other technologies can be seen as extensions of human thought, memory, communication and creativity.But the relationship works both ways. We shape our technology, and our technology shapes us.It influences what captures our attention, how we communicate, what we value and even how we perceive reality. If technology amplifies human consciousness, what happens when it is driven by fear, distraction or unconscious behavior? Could greater self-awareness allow us to use these tools in ways that support creativity, connection and human development?Ben also shares the personal side of his creative journey. As a father of four, he is constantly balancing filmmaking and podcasting with the responsibilities of family life. Rather than seeing parenthood as an obstacle to meaningful work, he explains how raising children has deepened his thinking about culture, responsibility and the future we are creating.His earlier career as a professional musician continues to shape the way he approaches filmmaking. Ben understands that information alone rarely changes people. Art can reach places that facts and arguments cannot, engaging emotion, imagination and intuition alongside the intellect. A powerful film does more than communicate an idea—it creates an experience.In this episode, you will discover:Why ancient myths may preserve fragments of real human historyHow mythology can reveal cultural truths hidden beneath symbolismWhy consciousness may be the next frontier of human evolutionHow technology changes our attention, behavior and relationshipsWhat artificial intelligence may reveal about the human mindHow music shaped Ben's distinctive approach to documentary filmmakingWhy emotion and storytelling can transform beliefs more effectively than facts aloneHow Ben balances creative ambition with being a present fatherWhy questioning accepted narratives is essential to independent thoughtThis is more than a conversation about filmmaking, mythology or emerging technology. It is an invitation to examine the stories guiding your life, the tools influencing your behavior and the future you are helping to create.Listen now for a compelling exploration of consciousness, ancient wisdom, hidden history, creativity, technology and the evolving potential of the human mind.

We tend to replace our phones every few years, mostly because they're not very friendly to upgrade or repair. This hurts your pocket, and the environment. So, what would a phone built with this in mind look like?The company Fairphone has done just this, building a new, sustainable phone.Joining Seán to discuss is Newstalk's Technology Correspondent, Jess Kelly.

Nikki & Brie are back side by side for a catch-up that goes from surprisingly deep to completely ridiculous in record time. The twins get real about independence, relationships, and why finding peace on your own can change what you're willing to accept from other people. But this is Nikki & Brie, so the conversation quickly spirals into viral Bobby pin experiments, Nikki's questionable online shopping, their kids telling wildly creative stories, Gen Z trading smartphones for flip phones, and a debate over teaching children to set boundaries. And just when Brie thinks she's safe, Nikki brings up that embarrassing story again. Press play for sisterhood, real talk, big laughs, and absolutely no shortage of TMI.

In Tokyo Scramble wird die Protagonistin Anne nach einem Erdbeben in die Tiefen unterhalb von Tokio verschlagen. Dort lauern dinosaurierartige Kreaturen, denen sie ohne klassische Waffen möglichst aus dem Weg gehen muss. Stattdessen nutzt sie ihr Smartphone, um Maschinen und technische Einrichtungen in der Umgebung drahtlos zu aktivieren. Dabei wirkt der Switch-2-Exklusivtitel in Ästhetik und Spielgefühl wie ein vergessenes, leicht schräges Playstation-2-Spiel – irgendwo zwischen Survival-Horror, Stealth-Experiment und absurdem Dino-Abenteuer.Hagen Gehritz (GamersGlobal) und Micha waren von Tokyo Scramble entsprechend fasziniert. Nicht zuletzt, weil sich das Spiel per GameShare im Koop erleben lässt und mehrere Personen gemeinsam unterschiedliche Aspekte der Spielfigur steuern können. Wie gut das funktioniert, warum gerade die eigentümliche Präsentation ihren ganz eigenen Charme entfaltet, besprechen die beiden in der heutigen Folge. Hosted on Acast.

Wie kann es sein, dass du mehr Menschen erreichen kannst als jemals zuvor und dich trotzdem einsam fühlst?In Teil 4 meiner Come Alive Serie geht es um eine der 4 Säulen der Lebendigkeit: Verbindung. Meine zentrale These dieser Folge lautet: Verbunden ist nicht dasselbe wie vernetzt. Du kannst hunderte Kontakte im Smartphone haben, ständig Nachrichten bekommen und trotzdem das Gefühl haben, dass dir etwas Entscheidendes fehlt. Genau diesem Unterschied gehe ich in dieser Folge auf den Grund.Ich spreche darüber, warum soziale Beziehungen einen so großen Einfluss auf Gesundheit, Glück und Langlebigkeit haben und warum gute Beziehungen dich sogar vor deinen eigenen schlechten Entscheidungen schützen können. Dabei geht es auch um die berühmte Harvard Study of Adult Development und die Frage, was unsere Beziehungen mit unserer Gesundheit Jahrzehnte später zu tun haben.Außerdem geht es um die Schattenseite unserer digitalen Vernetzung: Online-Dating, Social Media, künstliche Beziehungen und die Gefahr, dass wir immer besser darin werden, miteinander verbunden zu sein, ohne wirklich miteinander in Kontakt zu kommen. Ich spreche darüber, welche sozialen Fähigkeiten uns dabei verloren gehen können und warum echte Begegnungen biologisch etwas anderes auslösen als digitale Interaktion.Viel Spaß beim Zuhören und Go for Flow! ► Diese Folge ist Teil der 5-teiligen Come Alive Serie – Die Wissenschaft der Lebendigkeit.

Originally aired: March, 2022Melanie welcomes back Dr. Richard Freed, author of Wired Child and a practicing Clinical Psychologist and supervisor studying the effects of technology on children. He is on the advisory board of ScreenStrong and is a contributor to many well-respected publications. A link to Dr. Freed's article, The Tech Industry's War on Kids, is included in the show notes. Melanie asks Richard to provide our listeners his perspective on frequently asked questions from parents related to screens in the classroom, how to modify and/or request help with reducing screen use for homework, how to request a support letter for an in-school accommodation for your child, and one of the most difficult questions to answer, what to say to your child that is struggling with addictive behaviors. Their discussion addresses how technology has changed the school experience and learning opportunities for our children, which have significantly impacted children's development of Social Emotional Learning (SEL), which encompasses the growth of personal identity, communication, empathy, and healthy connections with parents, teachers, and coaches within the overall community setting.

Welcome back to Cannabis School! This week's Sesh begins with a simple idea that opens the door to a much bigger conversation: people are people, and life may be better when we stop treating every issue like a team sport.Brandon and Jesse explore the labels we place on ourselves and others. A label may help explain part of your experience, but it can also become a box—a reason to believe you cannot grow beyond certain limits. The guys discuss ADHD, identity, self-awareness, and the difference between understanding yourself and using a diagnosis as an excuse.That leads into storytelling, audiobooks, and why reading with emotion can transform words on a page into something alive. Naturally, the conversation takes a quick trip through Dune, video games, and questionable websites before landing on the evening's most expensive lesson.After consuming cannabis, one of the guys gets pulled into a shopping app designed to turn purchasing into a game. A few confusing taps later, an unexpected $88 charge appears. The order gets canceled, but the mistake creates something more valuable: an opportunity for calm, honest communication between partners.Instead of becoming defensive, they slow down, clarify what happened, and make room for frustration without turning it into a fight. Sometimes “I'm fine” does not mean everything is fine—and asking one more thoughtful question can change the entire conversation.From there, the Sesh moves into how other people experience us, releasing old resentment, expressing emotion through art, and learning to observe our behavior before reacting. The guys also examine modern consumerism, smartphones, digital addiction, impulse purchases, and the strange tradeoffs that come with having nearly everything available through one screen.Of course, no Sesh stays completely serious. Expect detours into Nokia brick phones, sending 46,000 text messages in one month, Nintendo, PlayStation, GameStop, motorcycle helmets, Dune: Awakening, and the usual Cannabis School nonsense.This episode is about becoming more present: with your money, your relationships, your technology, and yourself.In this episode:• People, politics, and the problem with picking teams• When personal labels become limiting beliefs• ADHD, identity, and self-awareness• Reading with emotion and telling better stories• Cannabis and an accidental online purchase• Communicating without becoming defensive• Why “I'm fine” may deserve another question• How other people experience us• Releasing old resentment and changing your perspective• Creativity as an expression of emotion• Smartphones, consumerism, and digital addiction• Buying games versus actually playing them• Nintendo, PlayStation, and GameStop• Being more intentional with money and technologyFind everything in one place here:

Glow up your festival coat with programmable LEDs! ✨ In this DIY wearable tech tutorial, we'll show you how to add addressable LED lighting to a faux-fur festival coat and control it wirelessly with WLED - a free, open source LED control program. The lights are sound reactive, smartphone controlled, and completely customizable — with tons of colors, animations, and effects to choose from. This project is beginner-friendly and requires no coding. Set up different lighting zones so the cuffs and fur trim can run their own effects, giving the coat a much more dynamic look than a single LED strip. Perfect for Burning Man, EDM festivals, concerts, costumes, nighttime events, or anywhere you want to be a little more visible — and a lot more glowy. ✨ In this project: • Smartphone-controlled LEDs • Sound-reactive effects • Multiple lighting zones • Custom colors and animations • WLED control • No coding required • Beginner-friendly wearable electronics Full step-by-step tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/glow-up-your-festival-coat-with-wled/overview #LEDs #WearableTech #FestivalFashion #WLED #DIYFashion #LEDClothing #BurningMan #FestivalOutfit #Adafruit #Maker Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Vergeet de beursgang van SpaceX: die van Anthropic wordt nog veel groter. Het bedrijf groeide van amper een miljard dollar omzet eind 2024 naar makkelijk 50 miljard dollar in de eerste helft van dit jaar. En in 2028? Dan staat er 200 miljard dollar op de borden, zegt het bedrijf. Is dit net zulke science fiction als SpaceX in zijn prospectus zette? En hoe gevoelig is dit bedrijf eigenlijk voor concurrentie? Dat bespreken we in deze aflevering. Verder houden we bij BNR Beurs wel van een mooie comeback. BlackBerry is niet langer het telefoonbedrijf dat op sterven na dood was na de introductie van de iPhone. Het is een infrastructuurspeler geworden, met technologie die gebruikt wordt door robots, medische spelers en defensiebedrijven. En daarom werd het bedrijf het afgelopen jaar 2.5 keer zoveel waard. Boem! We bespreken hoe ze dat voor elkaar kregen. Natuurlijk moeten we ook nog even gluren bij de buren, nu het nog kan. Jane Street wil zijn eigen schuldpapier minder publiek maken, maar tot die tijd kunnen we meekijken hoe het bedrijf met de grootste handelswinsten op Wall Street eigenlijk zijn geld verdient. En wat blijkt? Het verloor tientallen miljarden aan Leopold Aschenbrenner, de jonge knaap en wonderbelegger wiens fonds vorige maand opbrandde in de atmosfeer. Tot slot die halfjaarcijfers van Ebusco. Als het niet lukt om een nieuwe kredietfaciliteit af te sluiten, en een grote aandeelhouder niet bijstort, denkt het bedrijf dat er materiële uitdagingen ontstaan om zijn verplichtingen na te komen. Lees: dan is het einde verhaal.Te gast: Niels Koerts van Stockwatch.nl en de podcast het Beurscafé.BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For a number of years now, our smartphones have played a central role in many aspects of our lives, from work to personal relationships to entertainment. There's a close and sometimes addictive connection.  Just think of doomscrolling for example, which is a phenomenon we've discussed in the past on Do You Really Know. It's a form of behaviour which sees us compulsively scrolling through depressing content on social media platforms like Instagram or TikTok. It can easily end up draining us, leaving us feeling unfulfilled and possibly leading to anxiety or exhaustion.  How can I recognise if I'm addicted to my smartphone? What about at other times of the day? What's the best way to get started? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Gen Z has romanticized the technology of the '90s—or the era's lack of it. Young long for a time when people were looking at each other instead of their phones.

In this episode, Melanie and Dr. Stacey explore how teachers and parents can collaborate to create a phone-free school environment. Teachers can support the policy by using research-backed education, setting an example with their own phone use, and staying alert to signs of phone overuse, like distracted behavior and declining grades. Parents play a crucial role by supporting the school's efforts, limiting contact with kids during school hours, and encouraging phone-free days.For parents wanting to go further, we'll also discuss becoming a Phone-Free Champion in your school, organizing fun, tech-free activities that encourage socializing and new hobbies.Tune in to learn how phone-free schools can help students stay focused, build friendships, and feel more connected.Download our Phone-Free School Resource Guide.Support the showDon't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave a review if you enjoy the episode.

We are continuing our investigation into the implications of the Economic Singularity, the time when we need a new economic system because full automation by AI means that people can no longer obtain the resources they need by doing jobs.Our guest today is Ewan McMillan, the founder of New Gradient, an Edinburgh-based consultancy that builds AI systems for a variety of industries, from biotech to mining. He took a degree in theoretical physics at the University of Edinburgh, and since then he has spent seven years delivering applied AI R&D. We wanted to have Ewan on the show because he also writes about the economics of AI from the perspective of someone who is actually implementing it. This spring he posted a series of thought-provoking articles called “The Economics of AGI”.Selected follow-ups:New Gradient - Company websiteEwan McMillan - LinkedIn"The Economics of AGI" - Part 1  of Ewan's essay"The Innovation Paradox" - Part 2 of the essay"The Allocation Stack" - Part 3 of the essay"Bitter lesson" (general AIs will in due course out-perform specific AIs) - Wikipedia"AlphaZero" (covers the chess match vs. Stockfish) - Wikipedia"Smartphones and Beyond: Lessons from the remarkable rise and fall of Symbian" - book by David"Culture series" (about science fiction series written by Iain M Banks) - Wikipedia"Aghion–Howitt model"  - Wikipedia2025 Nobel Prize in Economics (recipients include Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt)"The First Solo Unicorns Are Here: Meet the One-Person Companies Racing to $1B in 2026" - Founder Institute"Understanding Alpha in Investing" - Investopedia"'We Must Act Now': Sixteen Nobel Laureates Join Leading Economists and AI Researchers in Call to Prepare for AI's Economic Transformation" - Stanford Digital Economy LabMusic: Spike Protein, by Koi Discovery, available under CC0 1.0 Public Domain Declaration

Send us Fan MailThe Cape Cod time capsule that is One Crazy Summer. Some of the movies shot on the Cape and Islands. The creation of the cellular telephone.Episode 256 is a bit of a throwback for the podcast as it is loaded with Cape Cod topics.We start by going back 40 years ago this week. One Crazy Summer is among the best mindlessly fun comedies of the 1980s. It wasn't a major box office or critical hit, but it did have one thing that made it special, and that was a deep connection to Cape Cod. Watching it today is like opening up an old photo album for Cape Codders who grew up during that time. We celebrate the 40th anniversary of One Crazy Summer this week.Today it can feel as though cell phone technology has been around forever. In some ways that is true, but in other ways it's still relatively new. We go way back to the beginning and trace the evolution of cellular telephone technology. From World War II to Y2K and all of the bumps and detours, we look at just how cell phones became the indispensable part of life that they are today. Cape Cod dominates this week's Top 5. We look at some of the films that were shot on Cape Cod or the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. There are a few obvious ones, and some that might surprise you. We'll go over them all, good, bad, and very bad.As always, there is a brand-new This Week In History and Time Capsule, looking at the creation of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon. Or you can support my work and Buy Me A Coffee!Helpful Links from this EpisodeBuy My New Book, In Their Footsteps!Searching For the Lady of the Dunes True Crime BookHooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenMSFTS CommunityKingfisher Hotels Cape CodChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogCJSetterlundPhotos on EtsyListen to Episode 255 hereSupport the show

On January 9, 2007, Steve Jobs walked onstage and declared three "revolutionary" products were actually one: the iPhone. Newt closes his 15-part series with the invention that fused the telephone, the transistor, the internet, GPS, and the camera into a single device now carried by six billion people—three-quarters of humanity. From the App Store's trillion-dollar economy to the industries it upended outright, the smartphone is where every earlier episode converges. Newt closes the series by reflecting on 250 years of American inventors who were told it couldn't be done—and built it anyway.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hundreds of billions of dollars are flowing into AI data centers right now, and Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether - the company behind the world's most widely used stablecoin with 573 million users - thinks that investment is going to age very badly. In this episode, he joins Craig Smith to explain QVAC, Tether's open-source platform for running AI on smartphones, laptops, and edge devices, and to make a case that within five years, 90% of what ordinary people use AI for will run entirely on consumer hardware, without touching a data center. The evidence is already there: Tether's team built a 4-billion-parameter medical AI model that outperforms Google's 27-billion-parameter MedGemma, running on a good smartphone, and a 1.7-billion-parameter version that runs on the average $80 smartphone available in Africa. The deeper argument in this conversation is philosophical as much as technical. Ardoino applies the same disintermediation logic that made sending dollars to the world's unbanked free - zero transaction fees, revenue from treasury bill interest - to AI: "not your AI, not your intelligence." If you don't control how your AI runs and your data never leaves your device, the AI is genuinely yours. If it does, someone else is getting smarter with your information. He also makes a pointed economic argument: the AI companies currently charging $200 for subscriptions that cost $1,000 to $5,000 to deliver are subsidizing growth while private, and when they go public, retail investors will absorb the gap. His prescription isn't to stop building, it's to build differently, toward millions of small interacting models rather than trillion-parameter monoliths, toward devices that think locally rather than systems that route everything through Ireland and back.
