At the storefront event, a man waiting outside told me he’d booked an appointment for 11:30 but noted he was an hour early and wasn’t allowed to come inside yet. He was visiting from Poland and said his boss had attended the party the night before and was “super hyped” about the orb concept. “I don’t know if it’s gonna be like a worldwide revolution, but I just want to be on the wave,” he said.“My only hesitation is that they are super huge,” he added. “I’m pretty afraid that they can actually do some stuff that we will not…

أعلن جهاز الاستخبارات الداخلية الألماني -أمس الجمعة- تصنيف حزب “البديل من أجل ألمانيا” حزبا يمينيا متطرفا، في خطوة تصعّد من المواجهة بين السلطات الألمانية وأحد أبرز أحزاب المعارضة. ويتيح هذا التصنيف لأجهزة الاستخبارات تقليص القيود القانونية التي كانت تمنعها من استخدام أدوات لمراقبة الحزب، مثل التنصت على المكالمات الهاتفية وتجنيد عملاء سريين داخل الحزب. وقالت الهيئة إن القرار اتُّخذ بناء على ما وصفته بمحاولات الحزب “تقويض النظام الديمقراطي الحر” في ألمانيا، مشيرة إلى سلسلة من التصريحات المعادية للأجانب والأقليات، خصوصا المسلمين، من قبل قيادات بارزة في الحزب. وسارعت قيادة “البديل من أجل ألمانيا” إلى التنديد بالقرار، واصفة إياه بأنه “ضربة…

In 2022, as junior investment bankers complained of burnout from a record-breaking dealmaking boom, Citigroup had a solution for bringing in and retaining new talent: a better work life balance working in Spain’s Costa del Sol. The US bank hired 27 analysts to work from a newly opened office in Málaga — a city favoured by tourists and Spaniards alike for its cocktail of sun, sea, restaurants and bars — promising eight-hour days and free weekends. Citi’s rivals labelled it a publicity stunt that would do little to change the culture on Wall Street. But Manolo Falcó, then the bank’s global co-head…

Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) operates on a core underlying assumption: The United States should be run like a startup. So far, that has mostly meant chaotic firings and an eagerness to steamroll regulations. But no pitch deck in 2025 is complete without an overdose of artificial intelligence, and DOGE is no different.AI itself doesn’t reflexively deserve pitchforks. It has genuine uses and can create genuine efficiencies. It is not inherently untoward to introduce AI into a workflow, especially if you’re aware of and able to manage around its limitations. It’s not clear, though, that DOGE has…

On ThursdaY, Reuters published a photo depicting then-United States national security adviser Mike Waltz checking his phone during a cabinet meeting held by President Trump in the White House. If you enlarge the portion of the image that captures Waltz’s screen, it seems to show him using the end-to-end encrypted messaging app Signal. But if you look more closely, a notification on the screen refers to the app as “TM SGNL.” During a White House cabinet meeting on Wednesday, then, Waltz was apparently using an Israeli-made app called TeleMessage Signal to message with people who appear to be top US…
