This one's about government. Yeah — I KNOW. Government right now feels completely useless. But a *functioning* government is likely the ONLY entity on earth powerful enough to help us make the kind of future we want, so please hear me out...!

Problem #3 with space: we're getting the order very, VERY wrong. I love Star Trek. But in Star Trek, humans didn't go to space to ESCAPE the Earth. They went there AFTER fixing a...

WTF is the difference between neoliberalism, liberalism, and libertarianism...?? And also, I'll tell you how Ayn Rand REALLY felt about libertarians. You can't make this stuff up...

You know exactly where you tax dollars go, right?? Yeah, of course not! But... WHY? Wouldn't we be better citizens if we actually knew what was happening...? In this week's episode of Hello Tomorrow, I get real with you about government budgets, why they're opaque, and what we should do instead.
I get really sick of "mainstream media pundit"-type folks dropping the ball when they could stand up for people and for good ideas. In this clip, I give the Hard Fork Podcast a good forking, and tell you exactly why an A.I. Shared Wealth Fund doesn't require the "U.S. to transform into Europe." 🙄
The U.S. is now so far over our skis on debt, the best hail mary is to pray for a productivity miracle. (Yeah, nobody in the news is using this exact language, but that's what's happening.) And there's really only one contender big enough to deliver the miracle...
Leaders: your organization might work a lot like our government. Please, don't let that happen.
"Neoliberalism" = how well do you know this word? It's not about politics. It's not even about liberalism, really... It’s about a word that has been quietly messing with your life for decades… even if you’ve never said it. Don't miss this week's episode of Hello Tomorrow, available now!
Have you heard of the "White City?" Our first stop on the World's Fair tour is 1893 in Chicago. The city is rotting and the White City is gleaming. What can we learn from this story about optimism...?
Three things for leaders: 1) Using A.I. as a cost-cutting tool will accelerate the consumer collapse. Don't do that. 2) Your workers are carrying ambient anxiety; name it directly or lose their trust. 3) Protect the space A.I. creates, don't re-spend it on more work. It's where wisdom grows.
We need a productivity miracle to get out of the financial mess we're in. The only thing I can see big enough to do it is A.I. But if the gains are concentrated at the top (like usual), the gains will be effectively useless for our larger collective problem.
Why do we create organizations, at all?? 100 years ago, an economist set out to answer this very question, and his definition has largely worked for all corporations since... ...until now. A.I. is about to unravel the reason organizations need to exist.
You've probably heard data centers guzzle water. And drive up energy costs. But they don't have to do EITHER of these things...!

Cllr Rachel Millward: "There is racial hatred across our societies like I haven't known in my lifetime. I'm so deeply worried about that." "Your party (Reform UK) needs to take responsibility for some of the narratives around immigration which are feeding that, it is wrong."
RP• @jesscraven101 Mayor Mamdani just did the impossible. He closed NYC’s 12B budget deficit without cutting any services or raising property taxes on working New Yorkers. How did he do it? Efficiency, cooperation with Albany, and TAXING THE RICH! 🤑 👏
Yesterday's attack on Hatzola ambulances - a Jewish charity that does amazing work for the community in North London - is an attack on all of us. As politicians we have to call out the rise in antisemitism wherever we see it.

Trump’s new Defense plan quietly outlines a “National Guard response force” trained in crowd control and civil unrest, to be deployed across all 50 states by April 2026. Let that sink in. They’re not preparing to leave office; they’re preparing to lock the country down.
