The Intelligence from The Economist - Help them, Obi: one hopeful candidate in Nigeria

Our correspondent meets with Peter Obi, who has a handsome poll lead and an appeal that spans the country’s religions and ethnicities. But his presidential bid still faces obstacles. Myanmar’s ruling junta is doing more than suppressing the country’s people: it is battering the economy equally efficiently. And remembering Brother Andrew, who made daring deliveries behind the Iron Curtain.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 E8: Waseem Daher, Pilot

Waseem Daher had two immigrant parents from Lebanon. He was born in the states, after the migrated to the states in the 80's. With his relatives around him, he saw that it was possible to run your own business, and do it well. His love for computer science really culminated when he went to MIT to complete is undergraduate studies, where he actually met his current co-founders. He is married with a 2 year old - so all additional time he has outside of work is spent with his young family.

Waseem and his co-founders have done many startups together. Inevitably, with every business they started, they found the back office type processes were important to have each time, but not the area of expertise for the founders - and much less, not the focus of said business. So, they built the service they wished they had in prior ventures.

This is the creation story of Pilot.

Burn Wild - Episode 6: The Line

As they visit the site of an ELF arson twenty-five years ago, Leah and Georgia meet inhabitants of a town that two years ago was lost to forest fire.

The Earth Liberation Front had a clear line they wouldn’t cross: they would never cause any physical harm. And they never did.

As climate change bears down they ask - where is the line now? A time when the stakes have gotten higher, the consequences sharper.

Leah and Georgia hear from those who spent years behind bars as a result of their actions in the name of the ELF, and environmental activists today - including the founders of mass civil disobedience movement Extinction Rebellion.
