Why Calling It the Robot Olympics Is a Stretch (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A robot ran itself straight into a wall this year, and what happened next is the kind of clip that gets shared for the wrong reasons. Carmi Levy has been watching the robot games closely enough to know the wall isn't the interesting part. What he's noticed is a technology moving faster than the label being slapped on it. That label is the real argument. If a person driving a controller counts as an athlete, does a machine with no human touching it at all get to stand next to them under the same
The Best Newspaper is the Paper You Can Only Get At One Deli (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's a paper being handed out in one Calgary neighbourhood right now that most people have never heard of, made by two residents with no funding and no interest in changing that. Ryan tracked it down to find out why anyone bothers. Inside, opinions get settled that nobody asked to have settled. One drink gets ranked against its competitors by taste alone.

ICYMI - What Actually Happened Before the Towers Fell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A quarter century after 9/11, Nathan Radke makes the case that understanding what happened requires going back to a Cold War strategy most people never learned about, one built entirely around bleeding the Soviet Union dry in Afghanistan rather than helping the country recover.

If AI Can Do Every Job, Why Sell It as a Subscription? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Greg Fish has a test for separating what AI is actually good at from what it's being sold as, and it comes down to one sharp question he keeps asking companies that make the biggest claims: if it can really do that, why haven't you already done it yourselves? He runs the math on one of the industry's most quoted funding pitches, and the number that comes out the other end is not small. It's the kind of figure that makes the whole subscription model look strange in hindsight. A tool that can alre
Shiftheads - Why a Yoga Pants Resale Program Might Backfire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A new program from Lululemon lets shoppers trade in gently used gear for a payout, but the fine print reveals exactly what the company is hoping people choose. Tony Chapman lays out why one option is worth more than the other, and what that says about the real goal behind the program. Shane brings a real example from a high-end consignment shop, where a designer item sold for a fraction of its original price with the tags still attached. It's a glimpse at how large the secondhand market around p
