    The Phia Scandal: How an AI Powered Fashion App Got Caught Cookie Stuffing

    Phia was supposed to be the Google Flights for fashion. An AI shopping assistant co-founded by Phoebe Gates and Sophia Kianni, backed by $43.5M and a Coachella lineup of celebrity investors. Then researcher Ben Edelman caught their browser extension cookie stuffing: silently taking affiliate credit for sales it didn't drive, possibly even swiping commissions from your favorite influencers' links. In this solo episode, Eden breaks down how the scheme worked (feature flags, background tabs, and a setting literally called "enable coupon auto drop"), why it only targeted iPhone Safari users, whether Phia's Series A investors were misled, and what past cookie-stuffing cases, from the eBay wire fraud convictions to the ongoing Honey lawsuits, might tell us about what happens next.

    The Full Stack of a Health Wearable: Silicon to Software

    It’s the golden episode (season 3, episode 3), and Eden and Ellen are getting a little science-y. This one’s all about health tech wearables — the rings, watches, and bands tracking your every move, and what’s really happening under the hood. We break down: How the hardware senses your body — optical PPG (photoplethysmography), ECG, LED light, and why the fingertip and earlobe are prime real estate for readingsThe metrics — heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, blood pressure, temperature, and how each one is actually derivedSignal vs. noise — why your ring is more trustworthy asleep than mid-workout, and the adaptive filtering that cancels out your footstepsAI, machine learning & inference — the difference between measured data and educated guesses, and why you are your own baseline (and why that baseline is the real product lock-in)The competitors — Oura, Whoop, Garmin, Apple, and up-and-comers like the Lumia ear cuffYour data & who’s protecting it — privacy policies, consent screens, Washington’s My Health My Data Act, Senator Cassidy’s proposed HIPRA, and what happens to your data when a company changes hands As always — we’re no doctors, lawyers, or geopolitical specialists. Stay safe out there.

    DAIS Recap

    In this solo season-three opener, Ellen recaps Databricks' 2026 Data + AI Summit, unpacking the keynote's core framework — Context, Control, Cost, and Choice — and CEO Ali Ghodsi's argument that AGI already exists but lacks the enterprise access needed to be useful. She walks through the expanded Genie product family, including Genie Code, Genie One, Genie Agents, Genie ZeroOps, and Genie App Builder, along with the underlying Genie Ontology layer that powers them. The episode also covers two major infrastructure announcements: the Rayden engine for real-time analytics, and LTAP, which unifies transactional and analytical data, eliminating traditional data pipelines. The episode closes with a brief look at Omnigent, a Day 2 open-source tool Ellen has adopted into her own workflow.

    AI Needs a Mother

    Why does representation in tech (especially in AI) actually matter? Because we've seen what happens when it's missing. Eden and Ellen walk through a history of products built without women in the room: crash-test dummies modeled on the average man that left women 47% more likely to be seriously injured, drugs dosed for male bodies, heart attacks misdiagnosed because the textbook symptoms are men's, hiring algorithms that penalized the word "women," and facial recognition that couldn't see darker-skinned women. The through-line is simple. When women aren't in the room, tools get built without them in mind, and the harm is real. Now AI is being shaped in exactly those rooms. This episode is about why that can't happen again, what the numbers at the top labs actually look like, and why getting women in early isn't optional.

    Off Season Recap - Vibe Coding Hackathons, Being Al Native, and Adjusting to New Coding Standards

    It's an off-season check-in because some things just can't be an email. Ellen and Eden are back at the mic to catch up on everything since production wrapped — TGC Media is officially an LLC (yes, there's a prenup), merch is incoming, and the new website just went live thanks to Eden's Claude Design and Claude Code build. Both Ellen and Eden came back from their work trips with the same question on their minds: how do you actually vibe code as a team? From merge conflicts and over-documented AI-generated code to whether any of it is production-ready, this one's for anyone navigating the messier side of building with AI. Plus — AI slop horror stories, Eden's surprising change of heart on in-person work, and a TikTok about Gen Z IQ decline that makes the whole "AI native" thing feel a little more complicated,

    Data Centers 101: Where AI lives and where its going

    This week I'm diving into one of the most fascinating infrastructure stories happening right now — data centers. We're going full 101 on what they actually are, how they work, and why AI has completely broken everything the industry thought it knew. We cover the four pillars every data center is built on, why a random suburb in Northern Virginia became the backbone of the global internet, and what happened when drone strikes took out three AWS data centers in the Middle East earlier this year — and what that means for how we think about digital infrastructure as a target of war. Then we get into the AI shift — why a single Nvidia GPU rack draws 42 times the power of a standard server rack, why Meta scrapped two years of construction mid-build because their facility was already obsolete, and why Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are all racing to secure nuclear power plants just to keep the lights on. And then we go to the frontier. Space-based data centers — and why the cooling problem doesn't disappear just because you're in orbit. The moon — and why 14 days of complete darkness makes it nearly impossible. And the ocean floor off the coast of Denmark — which is actually working right now.
