A fan is suing the Colorado Rockies after he got hit with a ball. He thinks the team should be held accountable for being so bad that he quit paying attention and got struck by the ball as a result.

Meta is turning to nuclear energy to power its artificial intelligence.

Palestinian solidarity protesters interrupted two congressional town halls in the metro area last week, calling attention to Rep. Jason Crow and Senator Michael Bennet's support for Israel, but also the role of one of Denver's largest and most mysterious companies: Palantir Technologies. So we're revisiting a conversation producer Paul Karolyi had a few years ago with Bloomberg Businessweek reporter Max Chafkin about his reporting on the defense contractor's co-founder Peter Thiel, how Palantir makes money, and why it moved to Denver in 2020.  This episode first aired on October 18, 2021.  Chafkin's biography of Peter Thiel is called “The Contrarian: Peter Thiel and Silicon Valley's Pursuit of Power.” Host Bree Davies mentioned two stories about former Palantir workers — one about a group of employees who sent an open letter to NPR and another from More Perfect Union about a former worker who became disillusioned about the company.  What do you think about Palantir? We want to know what you think about our new neighbor!

In this episode of ABA On Call, Rick and Doug dissect the behavioral science behind app design, revealing how tech companies use variable reinforcement schedules to hijack user behavior and drive compulsive engagement. Drawing from core principles of behavior analysis, they explore how seemingly harmless interactions, such as likes, swipes, and notifications, are systematically engineered to reinforce usage patterns. The conversation moves beyond theory into the ethical minefield of digital design, especially its impact on children, teens, and vulnerable users. With examples ranging from red-dot alerts to algorithm-driven content loops, the hosts challenge behavior analysts to confront the weaponization of reinforcement and consider their role in advocating for more ethical technology.   To earn CEUs for listening, click here, log in or sign up, pay the CEU fee, + take the attendance verification to generate your certificate!

Guest: Eden Bidani, Founder of CAPE agency, messaging strategy and copywriting for tech companiesIn this episode, I engage in a detailed discussion with Eden Bidani, founder of CAPE, a specialized messaging and copywriting agency for tech companies. We explore how her background in anthropology and sociology enhances empathy in marketing, especially relevant in the AI age. The conversation focuses on the five common mistakes in B2B landing page design, including the misconception that copy alone drives conversions and the need for a structured narrative flow. Eden highlights the importance of providing sufficient information to build trust, maintaining consistent messaging throughout the customer journey, and recognizing the complexities of B2B decision-making when crafting calls-to-action. We conclude with the significance of integrating landing pages within the wider website experience for a cohesive brand presence. Eden offers best practices and encourages a user-centric, experimental approach to marketing for improved conversion rates.What's in this conversation between Eden and Mony?0:07 Introduction 2:51 Anthropology in Marketing3:37 Common Mistakes in B2B Landing Pages11:35 Building Trust Through Information14:21 Length vs. Conciseness in Content17:18 Messaging Consistency Across the Funnel24:54 Avoiding Pushy Sales Tactics32:33 The Role of CTAs on Homepages36:41 Mistake Number Five: Disconnected Experiences41:50 Should You Drive Traffic to the Homepage?45:10 Closing Thoughts and Key TakeawaysReferences:

Welcome to the latest episode in the Terra Carta Series of the All Things Sustainable podcast, a collaboration with the Sustainable Markets Initiative. Throughout 2025, we'll be interviewing SMI member CEOs across industries and around the world about how they're approaching sustainability challenges and opportunities.   In this episode, we're talking with Brennan Spellacy, founder and CEO of Patch, a climate technology company that helps companies manage, sell and buy carbon credits. Brennan says interest in carbon markets is growing as a tool for companies to achieve their climate targets, even amid a challenging current environment.  "Even though the tactics might evolve in the short term, almost every [Chief Sustainability Officer] that I've seen is upping their investments in 2025 and 2026, not cutting them. But how you deploy and how you talk about that deployment is going to obviously evolve," Brennan says.  He outlines how Patch works to drive the integrity of carbon markets by providing companies with a universal framework for evaluating projects across a wide range of technologies on an apples-to-apples basis.  "The core theory of change at Patch is that it's incredibly difficult to understand this market," Brennan says. "And the way we're going to drive scaling within this ecosystem today is to remove the friction to understanding."  About the Terra Carta Podcast Series: The SMI is a network of over 250 global CEOs across finance and industry. It facilitates private sector diplomacy with the ambition of making sustainability the driving force of global markets and value creation. S&P Global is a proud SMI member.  We're calling this the Terra Carta Series based on the SMI's Terra Carta mandate. This is the guiding mandate for the SMI and sets out ambitious and practical actions to help the private sector accelerate progress toward a sustainable future. The name Terra Carta is a play on the historic Magna Carta.   Learn more about the S&P Global Sustainable1 Summit in Singapore June 26, 2025.  Listen to our first episode in the Terra Carta series featuring Sustainable Markets Initiative CEO Jennifer Jordan-Saifi.   Listen to our podcast episode about what's ahead for carbon markets.   Learn about the S&P Global Sustianable1's Energy Transition data.  This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1 and not by S&P Global Ratings, which is a separately managed division of S&P Global.     Copyright ©2025 by S&P Global            DISCLAIMER      By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.

In this episode, I'm joined by Megan Cornish, a social worker turned writer, for a powerful conversation about the realities therapists face when working with large mental health platforms. Megan shares her own journey out of community mental health and into writing, and together we dig into how these platforms can undervalue clinicians while prioritizing profit. We talk about the venture capital model and the ways it can exploit therapists—and just as importantly, what you can do to protect yourself. Megan offers thoughtful, practical strategies to help therapists stay grounded and strategic in a shifting industry.If you've felt uneasy about the rise of mental health tech or unsure how to navigate it while staying true to your values, this episode will help you feel more informed and empowered.For a full transcript of the episode and much more, check out the blog post on our website! https://moneynutsandbolts.com/?p=17821 To watch a video version of this, check it out on YouTube: https://youtu.be/h27aRIqBiy0 Connect with Megan CornishFind Megan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/megan-cornish/ Join the Facebook Group, The Fit Check for Therapists https://www.facebook.com/groups/1931610747282163/ Want to work with Linzy?Check out the FREE masterclass, The 4 Step Framework to Getting Your Business Finances Totally in Order, where you'll learn the framework that has helped hundreds of therapists go from money confusion and shame to calm and confidence, as well as the three biggest financial mistakes that therapists make. https://moneynutsandbolts.com/masterclass-signup-p/ Interested in learning more about Money Skills for Group Practice Owners?

Jo Haanstra is known in the tech world as a mover and a shaker and the startup she heads is launching an ambitious growth plan in Australia and the UK.

Agile Is Broken, So What Should Startups and Tech Companies Do Instead?Look, no matter where you stand on Agile, Scrum, or Jira, no one can name-call their way around the fact that continuous delivery and continuous improvement have, more often than not, given way to over-management, over-documentation, and over-scrutinization of the software development process, turning development into a joyless slog where nothing new and innovative gets done, and certainly not quickly — even at, and especially at, tech startups.How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

An Irish cardiac tech company has announced it is to create 20 jobs over the next three years, while targeting an additional €3m in revenue, as it expands overseas. The Louth based business will also be rebranding as Heart Rhythm International will initially target the UK, where they expect to add 30 additional hospitals and approximately 50,000 additional patients to their network before 2029. They will also be looking to bring their innovative cardiac care solution to Australia/ New Zealand and the US health markets in the coming years. Previously known as Heart Rhythm Ireland, the company operates a cloud-based cardiac rhythm management platform that supports patients as well as hospitals, clinicians and cardiac device manufacturers. Their system makes patient cardiac device information available in real time, delivering accurate, accessible and actionable data to patients and their medical teams. This improves patient outcomes by making device data more accessible, enabling timely clinical decisions and more coordinated care. HRI's system also provides patients with secure access to their information anytime and anywhere, making it easier to share critical data with healthcare providers in emergencies. The company is currently developing AI and predictive analytics capabilities, which are expected to further enhance the platform by supporting earlier insights and more personalised cardiac care in the future. Heart Rhythm International already supports over 65,000 patients across Ireland, with its platform in use at more than 50 cardiac hospitals nationwide. The company provides national coverage, working with leading institutions such as the Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Bon Secours Health System, Beaumont Hospital, Mater Private Network, University Hospital Galway, Blackrock Health, and Cork University Hospital. HRI expects to grow its team to 30 personnel in the coming years. For more than 15 years, HRI has served as Ireland's national electronic health record for cardiac devices, maintaining a registry of over 100,000 implant procedures and nearly one million clinical follow-up records. Alongside its commercial expansion, HRI is actively contributing to international research and innovation projects. It is a partner in Project CARAMEL, a €12 million initiative funded under the EU Horizon Europe programme, helping to develop AI-powered predictive models for cardiovascular risk in women aged 40 to 60. HRI is also an industry partner in the new Health Frontiers Technology Innovation Centre (HF-TIC), led by Ulster University and supported by €9.1 million in PEACEPLUS funding. Both initiatives reinforce HRI's leadership in AI-driven digital health innovation on an international scale. "Every 20 seconds, someone receives a cardiac implant, but the systems supporting their care haven't kept pace," said Robert Kelly, CEO of HRI. "HRI was set up to change that, by operating at the centre of a unique eco-system, supporting patients, hospitals and clinicians and cardiac device manufacturers. Through our system, patients receive greater peace of mind and better health outcomes, while medical personnel can make better-informed and more efficient decisions. Ultimately that improves patient care and helps save lives. "We've already demonstrated how we can enhance cardiac care in Ireland by supporting over 65,000 patients and working with more than 50 hospitals nationwide. Now, we're bringing that capability overseas. A key strength of our system is that it was built on scalable, cloud-based infrastructure in partnership with IBM, allowing it to be rapidly deployed by healthcare providers anywhere in the world." "We're managing our expansion step by step, focusing initially on the UK market. However, we are already discussing partnerships and opportunities with healthcare providers in the US and Australia/ New Zealand. We believe there is real opportunity for HRI to grow, to support more patients and doctors overseas, whi...

“If you don't innovate,” says John Lee, “you can't invent the products people use.” In this episode of the PNC C-Speak podcast, Lee, president and CEO of MKS Instruments Inc., shares the origin story and trajectory of the nearly 60-year-old tech enterprise. Based in Massachusetts, the company supports the advanced electronics industry. Innovation is only half of the secret sauce for MKS Instruments. The other prime ingredient, according to Lee, is inclusion.“I've spent a lot of time making sure everyone in the company – no matter where you are, which country you're in, what your political beliefs are or any other beliefs you have within the walls of MKS –  will be included. We will respect each other and you will be welcomed.”Tune in to this episode of the PNC C-Speak podcast to learn more about:Crisis lessons Lee learned during the Covid-19 pandemic (3:40)The components of team dynamics (8:29)Which major sporting event is on his bucket list (19:33)Powered by PNC Bank.Download a transcript of the podcast.

Today, Hunter spoke with Julie Ciccolini, the CEO of Techtivist. When she was working as a paralegal at the NY Legal Aid Society, Julie, like so many in a Public Defender Office, realized that there was immense amounts of data on police misconduct that was going un-used. So, Julie helped to set up a database that allowed Public Defenders to track and use this data in their cases. Realizing that this issue extended far beyond New York, Julie founded Techtivist as a way to help Public Defenders set up and utilize databases that keep track of police misconduct.     Guest Julie Ciccolini, CEO, Techtivist   Resources:   Check out Techtivist Here https://www.techtivist.com/ Read the Blue Wall of Silence Report Here https://www.nacdl.org/Document/DismantlingtheBlueWallofSilenceTrackLawEnfMiscond   Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?

“When I have a rich, powerful, mind expanding, mind bending conversation like this, I'll need to go and lie down in darkened room afterwards.”– Robert PoyntonThis week's guest is my friend and inspiration Robert Poynton, Founder of Yellow Learning, Associate Fellow at the Saïd Business School at Oxford, and author of three beautiful short books — Do Pause, Do Improvise, and Do Conversation — full of his insights from decades of designing and leading Executive Education leadership programs and hosting creative retreats in Spain.In Future Fossils Episode 196 Robert and I discussed how important it is to learn the principles of improvisation as a way of life. And as he notes in his latest book, most of us are already skilled improvisers because we spend our lives in conversation — not just with each other, but with our environments. How does trying on this frame transform the ways that we relate to them?In this episode we explore conversations as an art form and as a technology, technology as a conversation, and how weird this all gets when so many of us are having what feel like literal conversations with technology itself. Some of our topics:• How do we create fertile “conversational fields”? • How do different media constrain and open conversational possibilities?• What does it mean to “be generous” with our improv partners?• What might the structure of good conversation teach us about engaging with AI — and help us “converse” with the entire history of a person or a culture?At the heart of this project and this episode in particular is the belief that some things are worth doing not because they get us where we want to go, but because they're pleasures in themselves. Good conversations are their own reward, and conversations with Robert are especially rewarding.(Do yourself a favor and join a Yellow Learning cohort sometime…)PS — A bonus for subscribers this week: an extra mini-episode behind the paywall!

It looks forever. It looks untouchable, and people get attached by that kind of visible sense of scale. But there was a guy I knew many years ago who'd been around Silicon Valley long enough, and knew all the people, all these organisms that we call organizations or brands. And he always saw Silicon Valley as a network of personal relationships, which would every now and then explode into a visible platform or or company like Google or Apple. But he was kinda like, ‘That's not what's going on.' He would always say ‘It's the mycelial network of the relationships between the individuals.'”– Robert PoyntonHere you go: This is a public episode.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss whether Trump will in fact provide tariff relief for Chinese tech imports, and the internal struggle over tariff policy within the White House. They also talk about this weekend's assault on the governor's residence in Pennsylvania, and former Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz's appearance on CNN, where she called accused murderer Luigi Mangione “a revolutionary, who's famous, who's handsome, who's young, who's smart, he's a person who seems like he's this morally good man, which is hard to find." Mangione faces the possibility of the death penalty if convicted for the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Plus, how recent events suggest 3 different approaches for Democrats who oppose Donald Trump. Also, Katy Perry, Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez joined an all-female Blue Origin crew for a brief trip into space today. Why? And finally, Andrew talks to RealClearPolitics National Correspondent Susan Crabtree about internal reaction to today's new ad campaign to recruit Secret Service agents narrated by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and how Los Angeles and Chicago are taking different approaches to Trump regarding their status as sanctuary cities.

Tech stocks swung wildly as Trump reaffirmed global tariff plans, rattling markets after last week's $1.8 trillion sell-off. Major players like Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Nvidia closed higher despite early losses. Apple and Tesla ended in the red, while hopes of tariff delays briefly buoyed sentiment. Wall Street braced for a broader economic fallout, with … Continue reading Impact of Tariffs on Tech Companies' Stock Performance #1812 → The post Impact of Tariffs on Tech Companies' Stock Performance #1812 appeared first on Geek News Central.

The stock market has been a tad volatile lately. But this month, the digital physical therapy company Hinge Health filed for an initial public offering. Plus, a new tool out of Stanford University evaluates how various AI models perform in real-world health care. It grades them on tasks from patient education to clinical note generation. But first, Nvidia just hosted its annual GTC confab, where it announced a whole lot of collaborations and, of course, some new and improved chips. Main takeaway: The company has its fingers in a bunch of AI pies. Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino discusses all of this with Christina Farr, managing director at Manatt Health.
