Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S7 Bonus: Tapan Pattnayak, Addverb

Tapan Pattnayak life revolves around technology - his friends, professional colleagues, etc. and even his wife is an engineer, who he met at a company he was working at. He's passionate about making kids fall in love with science, and inspire a generation of young people to roll up their sleeves and dig into hardware. He believes that engineering is taught from the passion of other engineers. Outside of tech, he used to play sports, specifically cricket. When time limited the play of cricket, he started reading philosophy and history, with the goal of predicting what is happening in macro or societal trends.

While growing up in India, Tapan was contacted by his good friend in the states to join his company. At first he was hesitant, but he came to a point in his life where he felt he needed to do something different - something that was high energy, open, and impactful to the rest of the world.

This is Tapan's creation story at Addverb.

Bay Curious - Why Do People Fish off Hwy 101?

There’s a stretch of Highway 101 between South San Francisco and Candlestick Park where the road gets very straight and runs right next to the Bay. Even though there are lot of 'No Parking' signs in the area, some people are willing to risk a ticket for the good fishing in that particular spot. What are they catching, and what other treasures are fisher folk pulling out of San Francisco Bay and beyond? We sent producer Katrina Schwartz out to reel in the answer, and dip her own toes into the water.

The Best One Yet - 🍸 “Hot Martini Summer” — White Claw’s vodka pivot. The Fed’s 2 monsters. Amazon’s MIA moment.

White Claw already disrupted beer with spiked seltzer… now it’s disrupting both with its own vodka. The Fed just made its biggest policy decision of the year as it fights 2 monsters with 1 weapon: Inflation and a bank crisis. And Amazon’s moves with Panera Bread look nice, but it’s not making any moves in AI — because Amazon is best when it plays like John Stockton of the Utah Jazz. $SAM $AMZN $SPY Follow The Best One Yet on Instagram, Twitter, and Tiktok: @tboypod And now watch us on Youtube Want a Shoutout on the pod?

Everything Everywhere Daily - Alcohol in Early America (Encore)

In the very days of the United States, the country was mostly made up of farmers. 

They primarily ate the food they grew and maybe hunted to supplement their diet. 

They also drank. Alcohol. A lot of alcohol. In fact, the amount of alcohol consumed by early Americans on average might have been more than any other people in human history. 

Learn more about the alcohol consumption habits of early Americans on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Todd McGowan, “Capitalism and Desire: The Psychic Cost of Free Markets” (Columbia UP, 2016)

If you have ever gotten excited over buying a new object only to feel let down once you acquire it, then today’s discussion will be relevant to you. My guest is Todd McGowan, author of the book Capitalism and Desire: The Psychic Cost of Free Markets (2016, Columbia University Press). We discuss his critique of capitalism as a system that encourages us to forever chase satisfactions that never come. And we explore his suggestion that true satisfaction lies in the wanting, not the acquiring. It’s a fascinating conversation that will radically change the way you approach everyday consumption and how you think about your own satisfaction.

Todd McGowan is professor of film studies at the University of Vermont. He is the author of several other books, including Enjoying What We Don’t Have: The Political Project of Psychoanalysis (2013, University of Nebraska Press), Only a Joke Can Save Us: A Theory of Comedy (2017, Northwestern University Press), and Universality and Identity Politics (2020, Columbia University Press). He is also co-host, along with Ryan Engley, of the podcast Why Theory.

Eugenio Duarte, Ph.D. is a psychoanalyst and clinical psychologist practicing in Miami. He treats individuals and couples, with specialties in gender and sexuality, eating and body image problems, and relationship issues. He is a graduate and faculty of William Alanson White Institute in Psychiatry, Psychoanalysis, and Psychology in New York City and former chair of their LGBTQ Study Group; and faculty at Florida Psychoanalytic Institute in Miami. He is a contributing author to the books Introduction to Contemporary Psychoanalysis: Defining Terms and Building Bridges (2018, Routledge) and Patriarchy and its Discontents: Psychoanalytic Perspectives (2023, Routledge) and has published on issues of gender, sexuality, and sexual abuse.

What A Day - Interest Takes A Hike

As Donald Trump faces possible criminal charges in New York, the former president faces another, and potentially more serious, legal threat. An appeals court ruled Wednesday that one of his own attorneys must testify before the grand jury investigating his handling of classified documents.

The Federal Reserve raised the benchmark interest rate by a quarter percentage point. It’s the ninth rate hike in a row the central bank has made over the past year to fight inflation, despite concerns it could lead to more instability in the banking system.
