Is loneliness something that happens when you're not looking? And if so, could meaningful connection be found in a simple but purposeful café, where the lonesome are paired with the perfect partners for deep conversation? That's the fantasy at the heart of Kathy Wang's new novel, “The Satisfaction Café.” It follows Joan who starts the book as a Chinese graduate students in California in the 1970s. But her life quickly turns, as revealed on page one, when Wang writes: “Joan had not thought she would stab her husband.”From there, Joan is off to the races, marrying an older white man as a second husband, navigating his wealthy world, all while trying to find her own purpose and place.“The Satisfaction Café.” is one of the must-reads of the summer — and this week, Wang joins Kerri Miller on Big Books and Bold Ideas to talk about loneliness, the curse (or blessing) of small talk, why some cultures are OK with brazenly talking about money (and some aren't) and why she truly believes a third place like the Satisfaction Café could benefit us all. Guest: Kathy Wang is the author of “Family Trust,” “Imposter Syndrome” and “The Satisfaction Café.” She is a graduate of UC Berkeley and Harvard Business School, and lives in the Bay Area.

In this Swift Chats episode, Marie Swift speaks with Any Wang, Managing Partner at Runnymede Capital Management, host of the Inspired Money podcast, and a LinkedIn Top Voice, to explore how he has strategically leveraged LinkedIn to grow his following, build authentic connections, and generate business opportunities, all while staying grounded in his mission of helping others. Wang shares the evolution of his LinkedIn presence, from posting blog links in 2016 to becoming an early participant in LinkedIn's Creator Program and Accelerator. With over 18,000 followers and millions of video views, he explains how short-form, vertical video has become his secret weapon for visibility and engagement. While Wang utilizes AI tools to aid in brainstorming and structuring posts, he cautions against relying too heavily on them, emphasizing the need to infuse personal voice and storytelling to avoid generic content. He emphasizes the importance of consistency, storytelling, and humanizing content, often filming candid 60-second tips in real-life settings, such as track meets or beach vacations. Throughout the conversation, Wang underscores the opportunity LinkedIn presents for advisors: fewer than 1% of users post weekly, creating a powerful opening for those who do. His advice to peers is clear: be yourself, show up consistently, and let your content do the connecting. Learn more about Andy Wang and Runnymede Capital Management at Runnymede.com

Adam's Paternity Leave continues, so why not go undercover again? Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. After that first payment, you won't be charged again until we're dropping new content (which we'll warn everyone is coming), so if you want more of this it can be had, along with access to the fully uncut episodes from 100 to present and Movie Club episodes.Today's SVU episode ("Hothouse" S10E12) takes some fairly wild turns between drifting bodies, Ukrainian prostitution rings, elite prep schools, and the New Jersey justice system, but somehow Josh and Adam take it even further.

Dallas may be known for its sprawling layout, business-friendly climate and good fundamentals, but its office sector tells a more layered story. Whereas the vacancy rate is still lagging and some landlords are rethinking their investment strategies due to underperformance and volatility, some fundamentals still shine.One segment of the office market is defined by outdated buildings dragging up vacancy, whereas the other is led by high-quality trophy assets drawing strong tenant interest. Financial institutions remain the main tenant base, but investors can find opportunities everywhere if they look at the bigger picture.In this episode of Step Into My Office, I am joined by Newmark's Head of SE Research, Ching-ting Wang and Executive Managing Director of Global Research, David Bitner, as we zoom into the market's performance. Although some fundamentals might pose challenges, office absorption across the metro still performs well, especially in submarkets such as Uptown Turtle Creek and suburban areas. The evolution of workplace strategies, paired with current volatility in the sector, calls for caution, but also optimism.Most of the time, it's about perspective, they say. So, what will shape the next chapter of Dallas' office market and how is it comparable to other markets across the US?Here's what we discussed about:Vacancy rate highs, but positive absorption(01:39)Which submarkets are most resilient?

Economists and policy advisers have said that it is a strategic necessity for China to further scale back holdings in United States government debt in order to safeguard national financial stability, amid waning confidence in the dollar-based system and persistent geopolitical tensions.经济学家和政策顾问表示，在对以美元为基础的体系的信心减弱和持续的地缘政治紧张局势下，中国进一步缩减对美国政府债务的持有是一种战略必要性，以维护国家金融稳定。To pursue a more balanced, controllable allocation of foreign exchange reserves, the country is also likely to increase investments in non-dollar assets, including financial instruments of its Asian trading partners and crucial resources such as gold, energy and food, they added.他们补充说，为了实现更平衡、更可控的外汇储备分配，中国还可能增加对非美元资产的投资，包括其亚洲贸易伙伴的金融工具以及黄金、能源和粮食等关键资源。Yu Yongding, an academic member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, called for China to continue reducing US government debt holdings in an orderly manner.中国社会科学院院士余永定呼吁中国继续有序减持美国国债。"The ideal approach would be to increase imports and utilize the excess foreign exchange reserves to purchase high-tech capital goods and strategic materials. This could require China to narrow its trade surplus, move toward a basic balance in the trade of goods and services, or even run a trade deficit for a while."“理想的做法是增加进口，利用多余的外汇储备购买高科技资本货物和战略物资。这可能需要中国缩小贸易顺差，实现商品和服务贸易的基本平衡，甚至在一段时间内出现贸易逆差。”"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. We must closely monitor the US fiscal situation and prepare contingency plans to avoid being caught off guard," Yu said.余表示：“非常时期需要非常措施。我们必须密切关注美国财政状况，制定应急计划，避免措手不及。”。After stepping back from being the second-largest holder of US debt to third place in March, China further reduced its holdings of US Treasury securities in May by $900 million, to $756.3 billion, the lowest since February 2009, when the reading was $744.2 billion, according to the US Department of the Treasury.根据美国财政部的数据，中国在3月份从美国债务的第二大持有者退居第三位后，5月份进一步减少了9亿美元的美国国债持有量，至7563亿美元，为2009年2月以来的最低水平，当时该数字为7442亿美元。The reduction bucked the overall rebound of foreign holdings in US debt after a drop in April. Foreign holdings of US Treasury securities increased from April's $9.013 trillion to $9.046 trillion in May, with major US debt holders such as Japan, the United Kingdom and Canada increasing their holdings.这一减少抵消了外国持有的美国债务在4月份下降后的整体反弹。外国持有的美债从4月份的9.013万亿美元增加到5月份的9.046万亿美元，日本、英国和加拿大等主要美国债务持有者增加了持有量。Wang Peng, an associate researcher at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, said that China's holding cut in May—the third consecutive month of decrease despite other major holders' increased exposure—stems from a continued effort to optimize the structure of foreign exchange reserves.北京社会科学院副研究员王鹏表示，尽管其他主要持有者的敞口增加，但中国5月份的减持是连续第三个月下降，这源于持续优化外汇储备结构的努力。The aim is to reduce the risks of overreliance on US government debt and limit potential economic losses from geopolitical tensions, including the risk of asset freezes in the event of US sanctions, Wang said, adding that the move also reflects concerns about growing US fiscal deficits and uncertainty about the US economy.王表示，此举的目的是降低过度依赖美国政府债务的风险，并限制地缘政治紧张局势造成的潜在经济损失，包括在美国制裁的情况下冻结资产的风险。他补充说，此举也反映了人们对美国财政赤字不断增长和美国经济不确定性的担忧。Pan Gongsheng, governor of the People's Bank of China, the nation's central bank, has pointed to the risks associated with the US dollar's dominance as the global reserve currency, saying last month that US fiscal and financial regulatory problems could spill over, while the dollar could be weaponized in geopolitical conflicts.中国央行中国人民银行行长潘功胜指出了美元作为全球储备货币的主导地位所带来的风险，他上个月表示，美国的财政和金融监管问题可能会蔓延，而美元可能会在地缘政治冲突中被武器化。Guan Tao, global chief economist at investment bank BOCI China, said there is no immediate risk of a US sovereign debt crisis, as market demand for US Treasuries remains strong, and US Treasury yields could fall if the US Federal Reserve cuts rates later this year. Bond yields move in the opposite direction of prices.投资银行中银国际中国（BOCI China）全球首席经济学家关涛（Guan Tao）表示，目前没有美国主权债务危机的风险，因为市场对美国国债的需求仍然强劲，如果美联储今年晚些时候降息，美国国债收益率可能会下降。债券收益率与价格走势相反。But the deeper concern, Guan said, is US debt's long-term sustainability. If US government debt keeps expanding without a path to stabilization, it will eventually trigger problems.但关表示，更令人担忧的是美国债务的长期可持续性。如果美国政府债务继续扩大而没有稳定的道路，最终将引发问题。Credit ratings agency Moody's downgraded the US credit rating to Aa1 in May, citing runaway deficits, while the US administration's massive tax-and-spending bill, effective this month, could intensify such concerns, as it is forecast to increase US federal deficits by more than $3 trillion over the next decade.信用评级机构穆迪在5月份将美国信用评级下调至Aa1，理由是赤字失控，而美国政府本月生效的巨额税收和支出法案可能会加剧这种担忧，因为预计未来十年美国联邦赤字将增加3万亿美元以上。Chen Weidong, director of the Research Institute of Bank of China, said, "As the third-largest holder of US Treasuries, China must build a multilayered, systematic strategy to guard against mounting risks tied to US sovereign debt and the dollar-based financial system.中国银行研究院院长陈卫东表示：“作为美国国债的第三大持有者，中国必须建立一个多层次、系统的战略，以防范与美国主权债务和以美元为基础的金融体系相关的日益增长的风险。"This is not only vital for China's financial security, but also has far-reaching implications for the evolution of the global financial order," Chen said, adding that China has cut its US Treasury holdings by over 40 percent since 2013.陈表示：“这不仅对中国的金融安全至关重要，而且对全球金融秩序的演变也有着深远的影响。”他补充说，自2013年以来，中国已将其持有的美国国债减少了40%以上。He said that key priorities for China going forward include gradually reducing US Treasury holdings, optimizing the dollar investment portfolio by allocating more to short-term securities, increasing non-dollar investments, and advancing renminbi internationalization.他说，中国未来的主要优先事项包括逐步减少美国国债持有量，通过将更多资金分配给短期证券来优化美元投资组合，增加非美元投资，以及推进人民币国际化。He also called for deepening financial cooperation within Asia—which together holds over 60 percent of global reserves in dollar-denominated assets—so that Asia can form an internal reserve circulation system and reduce its reliance on external markets.他还呼吁深化亚洲内部的金融合作，亚洲拥有全球60%以上的美元计价资产储备，这样亚洲就可以形成内部储备流通体系，减少对外部市场的依赖。China has been stepping up efforts to diversify its reserve assets.

China is spearheading job creation through the introduction of new occupations, providing diverse career paths and high-quality employment opportunities.中国通过引入新的职业类别来推动就业增长，为人们提供了多样化的职业选择和高质量的就业机会。The move, led by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, will align talent development with emerging fields and bridge skill gaps, an official said on Tuesday.一位工作人员周二表示，这项举措由人力资源和社会保障部牵头，旨在使人才发展与新兴领域相契合，并填补技能缺口。According to data released by the ministry on the same day, China added 6.95 million new urban jobs nationwide in the first half of the year, achieving 58 percent of this year's target and maintaining a year-on-year urban unemployment rate of 5 percent in June.据该部门当天发布的数据，今年上半年中国全国新增城镇就业岗位695万个，完成了全年目标的58%，并且6月份城镇失业率保持在5%的水平。Various policies including introducing new occupations have been implemented to support job stability, the ministry said, adding that from August last year to date, it has launched 17 new occupations and 42 new job types.该部门表示，已实施了包括引入新职业在内的多项政策以保障就业稳定，并补充称，从去年8月至今，已推出了17个新职业和42种新工作岗位类型。Wang Xiaojun, deputy head of the ministry's department of vocational capacity building, said at a news conference in Beijing that the creation of new occupations generates a greater number of high-quality employment opportunities. "It provides workers with broader and more diverse career development paths," she said.该部门职业能力建设处副处长王小军在北京的一场新闻发布会上表示，新职业的设立带来了更多的高质量就业机会。她说道：“这为劳动者提供了更广阔且多样的职业发展路径。”The rapid growth of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big data, is creating numerous new digital professions, Wang said, citing AI-generated animation producers and unmanned aerial vehicle swarm flight planners as examples of roles emerging in response to the evolving job market.王表示，新兴技术（如人工智能和大数据）的迅速发展正在催生众多新的数字职业。他以人工智能生成动画制作人和无人驾驶飞行器群飞行规划师为例，说明了这些新职业是为应变不断变化的就业市场而出现的。By the end of 2024, there were about 1.62 million registered UAV owners in China, which was double the number compared with the previous year, she noted.她指出，到2024年底，中国登记注册的无人机拥有者约有162万人，这一数字较上一年增长了一倍。Wang also highlighted the rise of new professions catering to evolving consumer needs, such as indoor environmental specialists, sleep health managers and customized travel photography planners.王还强调了新兴职业的兴起，这些职业旨在满足不断变化的消费者需求，比如室内环境专家、睡眠健康管理师以及定制旅行摄影策划师等。"The ministry plans to establish standards, enhance training and align talent development with market demands to bridge talent gaps in emerging fields," she said.她表示：“该部门计划制定标准、加强培训，并使人才发展与市场需求相契合，以填补新兴领域的人才缺口。”Li Chang'an, a professor at the University of International Business and Economics' Academy of China Open Economy Studies, said the release of a new catalog each year serves, regulates and manages emerging roles.对外经济贸易大学国家对外开放研究院的李长安教授表示，每年发布新的目录有助于规范和管理新兴角色。"The emergence of numerous new roles is followed by training activities. The primary goals of releasing new occupations are standardization and training, which enable individuals to hold qualification certificates for the new positions," he said.“随着众多新职业的出现，随之而来的便是培训活动。推出新职业的主要目的是实现标准化和培训，这样就能让个人获得新岗位的资格证书。”他说道。New occupations play a crucial role in guiding employment, Li said. "Individuals, especially young people, are made aware of diverse job opportunities, prompting them to engage in career guidance tailored to evolving occupational categories," he added.李表示，新的职业类别在引导就业方面发挥着至关重要的作用。“个人，尤其是年轻人，能够了解到各种各样的就业机会，从而促使他们接受针对不断变化的职业类别而制定的个性化职业指导。”他补充道。The Chinese government will conduct subsidized training for 10 million candidates annually over the next three years as yet another tool to enhance employment.在未来三年内，中国政府将每年为1000万名求职者提供有补贴的培训，以此作为促进就业的又一举措。Furthermore, the government will add positions in key sectors in the digital, green, silver and nighttime economies.此外，政府将在数字、绿色、银色和夜间经济等关键领域增设职位。new occupationsn.新职业/njuː ˌɒkjuˈpeɪʃnz/high-quality employment opportunitiesn.高质量就业机会/haɪˈkwɒləti ɪmˈplɔɪməntˌɒpəˈtjuːnɪtiz/

In this wide-ranging Hoover History Lab discussion, Kleinheinz Senior Fellow Stephen Kotkin joins Research Fellow Dan Wang to explore the craft of history and its relevance to the present.  From his office in Hoover Tower, Kotkin reflects on his efforts to answer the big questions of history, guided by a methodology rooted in rigorous archival research, deliberate engagement with contradictory evidence, and a strategic approach to empathy in order to grasp the contexts and motivations that shape human choices at critical historical junctures. In constructing what he calls an “analytical narrative approach” with audiences, he explains how historians can apply their training and skills to show historical patterns, as well as illuminate drivers of change, relationships between structures and agency, and the workings of power: how it is accumulated, exercised, and leaves its mark on societies.  Wang and Kotkin talk about the enormous demand for historical understanding across society and sectors. In responding to that demand, Kotkin underscores the historian's responsibility to reach both scholarly and public audiences, the dangers of using “junk history” to inform policymaking, and the need for emerging scholars to engage thoughtfully with Artificial Intelligence.  The conversation closes with Kotkin's reflections about what historical perspective can show us about achieving sustained global peace and prosperity; details about his work and vision at the Hoover History Lab aimed at cultivating rising generations of scholars and meeting widespread public  demand for policy-relevant history; and his recommendations for five books that the audience should consider reading. ABOUT THE HOOVER HISTORY LAB The Hoover History Lab is not a traditional academic department but instead functions as a hub for research, teaching, and convening—in person and online, in the classroom and in print. The Lab studies and uses history to inform public policy, develops next-generation scholars, and reinforces the work of Hoover's world-class historians to inform scholarship and the teaching of history at Stanford and beyond. The Lab's work is driven by its principal investigators, who spearhead research and research-based policy projects. The Lab also encompasses a strong cohort of “staff scientist-equivalents”:  research fellows ranging from the most senior, world-renowned scholars to a full slate of exciting next-generation talents who bring fresh, multifaceted insights to our research. Rounding out our team, some of our postdoctoral scholars serve as research and teaching fellows, and we also leverage the talents of exceptional Stanford undergraduates as our student fellows, who participate in leading-edge research, just as in a scientific laboratory. This full-range approach to personnel, spanning all ages and levels of experience, ensures that the mission of the lab carries forward into the future and across to other institutions with a positive, powerful impact.

‘Attention Is All You Need', co-wrote by Illia Polosukhin in 2017, laid the foundation for arguably one of the most consequential tech breakthroughs in our recent history. 1 year later, Illia founded Near AI, which later became Near Protocol. They were visionaries ahead of their time and, although AI took several more years before becoming a viable product, the experience of scaling databases would later prove valuable and applicable in blockchain world. As a result, Near Protocol aims to become the infrastructure layer for AI apps and the agentic economy. In order to achieve this, scaling was paramount, thus Near is one of the first blockchains to implement execution layer sharding, asynchronous execution and stateless validation, which brought the finality time down to 1.2 seconds, with a block time of 0.6 seconds.Topics covered in this episode:Bowen's backgroundNear's pivot from AI to blockchainsThe role of Near OneNear's tech stack upgradesOptimizing network architectureStateless validation & block propagationSharding & asynchronous executionMessage passing between shards & shard ‘equality'Challenges of implementing stateless validationApplications benefiting from Near's finality speedIntent-based infrastructureAI use cases on NearExpanding Near's ecosystemDevelopment challengesNear's vision and goalsEpisode links:Bowen Wang on XNear OneNear on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Chef Shuai Wang was the runner-up on the 22nd season of Bravo's Top Chef and is the force behind two standout restaurants in Charleston, South Carolina—Jackrabbit Filly and King BBQ—where he brings together the flavors of his childhood in Beijing and the spirit of the South in some pretty unforgettable ways. He grew up just a short walk from Tiananmen Square, in a tiny home with no electricity or running water, where his grandmother often cooked over charcoal. Later, in Queens, New York, his mom taught herself to cook—her first dishes were a little salty, but they were always made with love. And somewhere along the way, Shuai learned that cooking wasn't just about food—it was about taking care of people. After years working in New York kitchens, he made his way to Charleston and started building something that feels entirely his own. Today, we're talking about how all those experiences come together on the plate, the family stories behind his cooking, and what it's been like to share that journey on national TV.

Andrew Wang says despite the tariff news, markets keep climbing higher and that banking earnings provide a good read on the rest of the economy. In the wake of bank earnings from JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Citigroup (C) and others, he says trading volumes appear to be remaining healthy as investors look at future government spending post "One Big Beautiful Bill." In terms of global trade, Andrew highlights that none of this week's tariff headlines have impacted trade with China yet.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Is there collusion in our field? Do we have elites running wild, making sure that their work gets published whilst the rest of us struggles to find room to publish our own work? And are we handling conflicts of interest that may exist between authors and the editors who are charged with making decisions about their work? These are serious questions. They target the core of our field, they have the potential to undermine – or bolster – the legitimacy of all our scholarship, and they pose serious material consequences for all scholars, their careers and ultimately their lives. We came across a new paper that reports an analysis of the potential conflict of interest issues in academic publishing, and we use this paper to reflect on our experiences as both authors and editors. We try to draw a few conclusions and recommendations about how we can raise awareness and build institutional trust to minimize if not avoid any questionable or outright unethical practices in publishing.

Was wäre wenn …? Hätte ich doch nur … Müsste ich nicht eigentlich…? Das kennt wahrscheinlich jeder von uns: Gedanken, die immer wieder um dieselben Themen kreisen. Man kommt nicht runter vom Gedankenkarussell. Wiederkehrende, belastende Gedanken sind ein zentrales Merkmal vieler psychischer Belastungen. In dieser Folge fragen sich Atze und Leon, warum wir dazu neigen, in solchen Denkschleifen zu verharren und werfen einen Blick auf aktuelle Forschungsansätze und evidenzbasierte Strategien zum Grübeln. Was ist normal und was ist schon nicht mehr gesund? Und was können wir konkret im Alltag tun, um das Gedankenkarussell zu stoppen?

Xiao-Jing Wang is a Distinguished Global Professor of Neuroscience at NYU Xiao-Jing was born and grew up in China, spent 8 years in Belgium studying theoretical physics like nonlinear dynamical systems and deterministic chaos. And as he says it, he arrived from Brussels to California as a postdoc, and in one day switched from French to English, from European to American culture, and physics to neuroscience. I know Xiao-Jing as a legend in non-human primate neurophysiology and modeling, paving the way for the rest of us to study brain activity related cognitive functions like working memory and decision-making. He has just released his new textbook, Theoretical Neuroscience: Understanding Cognition, which covers the history and current research on modeling cognitive functions from the very simple to the very cognitive. The book is also somewhat philosophical, arguing that we need to update our approach to explaining how brains function, to go beyond Marr's levels and enter a cross-level mechanistic explanatory pursuit, which we discuss. I just learned he even cites my own PhD research, studying metacognition in nonhuman primates - so you know it's a great book. Learn more about Xiao-Jing and the book in the show notes.

In this academic-themed interview episode of Decoding the Gurus, Matt and Chris sit down to chat with Dorsa Amir and Chaz Firestone (@chazfirestone) about their recent paper 'Is Visual Perception WEIRD? The Müller-Lyer Illusion and the Cultural Byproduct Hypothesis.'In a conversation that serves as a welcome tonic to the endless lamentations of the gurus about academic groupthink and closed-minded silos, Dorsa and Chaz discuss the interdisciplinary nature of their work, debates around universal vs. culturally specific psychology, and the strength of evidence that visual perception varies between cultures. We also learn about the dangers of being STUPID: Studying Topics Uninformed by Prior Investigations in the Discipline, and attempt to uncover just how much Chaz enjoys popping balloons.A fun one that might even leave you a little bit more optimistic than usual!LinksAmir, D., & Firestone, C.
