How Scientific Empires End

Roald Sagdeev has already watched one scientific empire rot from the inside. When Sagdeev began his career, in 1955, science in the Soviet Union was nearing its apex. At the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow, he studied the thermonuclear reactions that occur inside of stars. A few lab tables away, Andrei Sakharov was developing the hydrogen bomb. The Soviet space program would soon astonish the world by lofting the first satellite, and then the first human being, into orbit. Sagdeev can still rememb

Figma’s IPO price hit a $19.3B valuation out of the gate

Elon Musk Is So Unpopular, He May Be Hurting the Entire EV Industry

Elon Musk’s increasingly controversial reputation among U.S. liberals has become so polarizing that it’s turning some away not just from Tesla, but from electric vehicles altogether. A new study published this week in the journal Nature examined whether perceptions of Musk have made Teslas more polarizing than other EVs. The researchers conducted a series of surveys starting in November 2023 up until March 2025. In each, participants were asked whether they would consider purchasing either a Te

They knew they were hiring too many developers, but they did it anyway because of corporate greed. They wanted to control the talent pool. They wanted to make as much money as possible,

Sir William Hamilton was the British ambassador to the court of Naples and Sicily from 1765 to 1800, as well as a passionate volcanologist. During his time in Italy he must have seen Mount Vesuvius erupt a number of times—certainly enough to leave a lasting impression. So much so that in 1775 he designed a rotating device that, with mechanical movement and light, could bring to life the fiery magma depicted in Pietro Fabris’ 1771 watercolor, “Night view of a current of lava.” While experts aren
