Lost Debate - Ep 87 | Obama on Democrats, Gig Workers, Licensing Laws

Ravi and Rikki start by discussing former President Obama’s appearance on Pod Save America and why his remarks on inclusivity seem so novel in today’s Democratic landscape. Then the hosts turn to a specific kind of deregulation that both Democrats and Republicans might be able to get behind: cutting back the red tape around licensing laws. Finally, Ravi and Rikki explain the Biden administration’s recent move to reclassify gig workers and debate whether the rationale adds up.

Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - CLASSIC: The NSA: Fact, Fiction and Fright

Since the 1950s, the National Security Agency has been responsible for collecting, analyzing and verifying a vast amount of signals intelligence, ostensibly to protect the people of the United States. Over the decades the agency has grown to become one of the world's premiere repositories of intelligence -- everything from internet search histories to phone calls and texts, as well. In the final days of President Obama's administration the NSA was quietly allowed to share this information with every other US intelligence agency. So what happens next? They don’t want you to read our book.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E9: William Falcon, Lightning AI

Will Falcon did not have a traditional path to tech. He is originally from South America, and moved to the US when he was a teenager. Later in life, he went through Navy Seal training and served the country for 6 years, doing primarily special reconnaissance. After leaving the military, he taught himself how to code and "fell into" the world of AI. He finds the dynamic of uncertainty in the military translates over to the tech startup world. Outside of tech, he likes to try random things, but digs surfing, swimming, and doing art.

In his undergrad program, Will created a toolset to help you scale code within the deep learning, AI world. Prior to joining Facebook, he open sourced his tooling and shared it with the world. He noticed that many large enterprises were adopting his toolset, and in doing so, they were running into the same problems - problems that this current iteration could fix.

This is the creation story of Lightning AI.
