Bitcoin mining is set to roar louder under Trump. Miners have unveiled plans to add another 2.42 GW in capacity since November—equivalent to 2m US households. I looked at what this means for eardrums and grids throughout rural America. theguardian.com/technology/202…

The top holders of Trump’s cryptocurrnecy won a dinner with the president tonight. However I found that almost half lost money from their purchases—a combined net loss of more than $8.95m. theguardian.com/us-news/2025/m…

The VC gender gap is getting worse. Just 0.7% of U.S. funding has gone to companies founded exclusively by women this year—the lowest rate since records began. I looked into why. qz.com/venture-capita…

Pharma tariffs would hit uninsured Americans the hardest because the US depends on generics made overseas more than any other country. via Niamh Quartz. #Pharmaceuticals #Tariffs qz.com/pharma-trump-t…

I looked into a new wave of AI startups reaching billion-dollar valuations in a matter of months, with only a few employees. Their challenge: to prove that growth is sustainable, and their tools carry weight.

The U.S. Gov has been gifted ChatGPT and Claude for $1, amid a federal push to embrace AI. The DOJ already uses LLMs to generate content, while ICE uses machine learning to prioritize targets. Both examples offer a glimpse into how the bots may be used.

Hedge funds have a growing ability to save or sink bond markets. They've worsened financial shocks, but have also forced leaders to backtrack (Trump's tariffs, Truss's tax cuts). This casts hedge funds in an unlikely — and uneasy — new role as fiscal watchdogs.

In towns where DC is an abstraction, the post office is the front desk of American democracy – sometimes the only public space at all. The USPS binds the nation together. Trump would like to see it privatized theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Sam Altman and Elon Musk say universal income is coming and it will redistribute AI's returns ... Are our Big Tech overlords soft launching their socialism? Will the means of production be gifted to the proletariat after all? (Spoiler: no) qz.com/universal-basi…

Use of public office for private gain is a clear violation of the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch. But he does it anyway. My comments in an interview with Niamh are here: The legality of Trump as America's CEO qz.com/donald-trump-n…

Trump is estimated to have made ~$3 billion this year, doubling his fortunes. I dug into why the courts can't stop him. “Congress has an obligation to act. It needs to start doing its job," the White House ethics lawyer under George W. Bush told me. qz.com/donald-trump-n…

I’ve dated Henry VIII, DJ’d with Princess Diana and hit Black Friday sales with Marx….Consigning the ghosts of celebrities to haunt Sora for ever might feel wrong, but is it legal? OpenAI is willing to take the risk and find out later. theguardian.com/technology/202…
