It’s back – revived TEDxHongKong challenges assumptions and reframes beliefs

Hong Kong is an international economic powerhouse brimming with talent and capital, but how much of that has trickled down to local communities? This was the question that weighed on Daniella Lopez’s mind when she acquired the licence for TEDxHongKong – which had been inactive since 2017 – in late 2025. There have been more focused TEDx events in Hong Kong, such as TEDxTinHauWomen, that had specific themes. But TEDxHongKong is about building a broader platform that uses local expertise and...

Europe Scrambles to Contain the Energy Shock

The European Union and the Eurozone are feeling the energy shock as the Iran war enters its fourth month. The spike in oil and gas prices amid the Middle East crisis is raising inflation and moderating economic growth expectations in the EU and the Euro area, which are grappling with the second energy crisis in four years. Comparisons with the 2022 inflation and gas supply shock in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine are flawed as circumstances are different and the likelihood of runaway

How do you think the SpaceX IPO will affect other space stocks (RKLB, ASTS, LUNR, etc.)?

Do you see these other stocks benefiting from the space-based bonanza? Or do they take a hit, as space-focused investors withdraw to reallocate their funds into SpaceX? Or is all already priced in, and the other space stocks will see neither a benefit nor a hindrance due to SpaceX's emergence? Very curious to hear everyone's opinion. submitted by /u/TomGerity [link] [comments]

Taiwan opposition leader promotes cross-strait peace during US trip

The need for Beijing and Washington to pursue “reconciliation and cooperation” and avoid war is the central message of her US trip, Taiwan’s main opposition leader Cheng Li-wun said in San Francisco. Cheng, leading a delegation from the Kuomintang (KMT), arrived in San Francisco on Monday evening, beginning a two-week US visit closely watched in Beijing, Taipei and Washington. In San Francisco’s Chinatown on Tuesday, Cheng said China and the US should forge “a relationship of friendship and...

SpaceX IPO will pop the AI bubble

OBS: im making this post mostly because I genuinely want to hear other opinions, especially from people who understand markets, tech, or macroeconomics better than I do. Just to give some context I’m an aerospace engineer and I work with satellites, so I’m definitely not an Elon Musk or SpaceX hater. But I really think people should be careful over the next few months because the AI bubble is close to bursting, and I believe a SpaceX IPO could be the trigger. If you believe “this time is differe

Nokia’s quantum-safe integration with QuStream that hasn’t been widely disclosed yet

Been digging into some quantum security stuff and came across what looks like a quiet collaboration between Nokia and a smaller player called QuStream. At Nokia’s Swiss Innovation Day this year, QuStream’s CEO Adrian Neal (who also leads post-quantum at Capgemini) presented their joint work. They’re running QuStream’s Quantum Safe Network (QQSN) on Nokia’s high-performance hardware, with firmware integration and upgrades planned. The tech stands out: it uses information-theoretic security with p

US House votes to stop Iran war in rebuke to Trump

The Republican-led House voted on Wednesday to halt the war with Iran, breaking with US President Donald Trump on an unpopular foreign conflict that is taking an escalating economic toll on Americans. The 215-208 vote showed worries over the war spreading in the president’s own party five months before congressional elections. Last month, a Senate resolution to end the war also advanced past a procedural hurdle for the first time, though that legislation has not yet come to a formal vote. The...

Opinion of older people on the younger generation

I came across this video and am quite shocked by the statements of the first 2 people: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Jm-n7zI0hr8 Are they serious? These are individual opinions, right? You work yourself to death here and then statements like that are like a punch in the stomach. On the other hand, that would also explain the election results of the last federal election. Apart from the fact that "more work" would not solve our economic problem... submitted by /u/Zestyclose-Can5544 [li

US’ Bessent says China eyeing more Boeing purchases ahead of Xi visit

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claimed on Wednesday that China is “very interested” in additional Boeing plane purchases, an issue the Trump administration plans to press when President Xi Jinping visits the United States in September. “They agreed to 200 aeroplanes during the visit. We will see if they commit to a larger number when Xi Jinping arrives in Washington,” Bessent said in his budget request testimony to the Senate Finance Committee. China’s commitment to buy 200 Boeing aircraft.

First Trump, then Putin go to China. Does great-power diplomacy now hinge on Beijing?

Despite recent back-to-back visits to Beijing by US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, no new trilateral framework or major diplomatic breakthrough has emerged. Yet, according to observers, the summits highlight Beijing’s growing ability to manage its two most important relationships on separate tracks: sustaining a deep strategic partnership with Moscow, while pursuing a more transactional, stability-focused engagement with Washington. Several analysts said the pattern

Energy Costs Are Catching Up With Big Tech

Artificial intelligence is all the rage these days, and so is its energy consumption. From a game-changing technology that would usher in a new era, AI has recently turned into a problem for many—a problem that makes electricity more expensive while, apparently, not really living up to the promise of its developers. Big Tech is still pledging tens of billions in AI spend. Now, it may have to spend a bigger portion of those billions on securing its own energy, and on proving its worth the money t

US and ‘Five Eyes’ allies warn of LinkedIn China spying threat

The US and its “Five Eyes” intelligence partners issued what they said was an unprecedented joint notice warning about attempts by Chinese spies to use websites such as LinkedIn to recruit assets. “China’s military intelligence services are using an increasingly wide array of professional networking sites and online job platforms to target Five Eyes government and military personnel – and anyone with access to classified or privileged information,” according to a joint statement by the FBI,...
