POLITICO Tech

This is a smart listen that has become a regular part of my morning routine. The host and his guests are some of the most authoritative and informed people on a variety of issues impacting the future of tech in society, like AI (though this might be covered a little too much tbh) and the role policy plays in shaping what’s to come. I’ve enjoyed listening and learning from the podcast and am better prepared to understand the interplay between tech and policy.

If you are a progressive voter, you will love it. They spoon feed you the cope you need to be blissfully ignorant about tech market workings. Everyone else, time is better spent elsewhere. The only reason I stay subscribed is to find out what low quality copium is being peddled.

Great episode on the historic mayoral race taking place in Boston both in primaries, and in November. It’s own moment of Lift.

The election analyst you had on Today did you no favors . He belongs on Fox News. He does not recognize data that is contrary to what he wants to say and minimizes that which appears to contradict it . It is the old trick of not having an opposing voice on while you are presenting . On Politico he does not . He is smooth and not bombastic but not truthful. He lies by omission and subtle distortion . My guess he is paid for and beholding to republican . If he is not he should be. You do not look like unbiased journalists with guys like this , especially when you do not present a counter point .
