The Intelligence from The Economist - Mention the war: Germany awakes

For decades, Germany was doctrinally pacifist: a legacy left over from the second world war. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has changed that, seemingly overnight. As Russia’s military advance has stalled, it has turned its firepower against civilian targets, resulting in widespread death, but also in the destruction of Ukraine’s cultural legacy. And remembering one of the many brave, ordinary Ukrainians, fallen in defence of their country.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S6 Bonus: Verl Allen, Claravine

Prior to his current venture, Verl Allen spent 12 years at Adobe. During that time, he was raising 3 kids as a single Dad, so you can imagine that during that time, it took a large part of his focus. Outside of his profession and family, he loves to ride road bikes 3-4 hours a week, but in particular, long distance rides (to the tune of 200 miles in a single day). He is also a runner, which he finds takes less time to get a good workout in.

During his time at Adobe, Verl noticed a problem emerging with his exposure to acquisitions. He saw that the acquisitions were merging at the process level, but were not doing this down to the data level. When he found out about his current gig, the product was attempting to solve a specific use case of this problem, but was sorta falling over.

This is Verl's creation story of Claravine.

Honestly with Bari Weiss - Why No One Trusts Anything

What if I told you that all the brokenness in our society—from the increased rates in suicide and addiction to the decreased rates in marriage and sex to the crisis of faith in everything from the CDC to political leaders to our democratic elections—weren’t a series of separate catastrophes but symptoms of one underlying condition?


That’s the argument of my guest today, Yuval Levin. 


Yuval is a journalist and academic. He has served as a congressional staffer and as a domestic policy staff member under President George W Bush, he’s the author of several books including The Fractured Republic and “A Time to Build.” 


I think of him as one of America’s most insightful political philosophers. I learned so much from this conversation and I hope you do, too.

The Best One Yet - 🤐 “$3 per moocher” — Netflix’s password punch. Instacart’s TikTok tomato. Costco’s gas hack.

Netflix may be ending the password-sharing era with a new $3/month mooch tax. Last week, gasoline prices spiked, so this week people are joining Costco… because gas is the only price tag we see every day. And Instacart’s newest partnership is with TikTok to turn Stanley Tucci’s carbonara recipe into a 1-click ingredient delivery. $COST $NFLX Got a SnackFact?

On January 23, 1968, the USS Pueblo, a US Navy intelligence-gathering ship was on a routine surveillance mission in international waters off of the coast of North Korea. 

While on surveillance duty, it was intercepted by North Korean patrol boats.


Shots were fired, the crew was captured, and it set off one of the biggest international incidents of the Cold War. 

Learn more about the Pueblo incident, how and why it happened, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
