On April 2nd, 2025, our president announced major new taxes on imports from foreign countries (“tariffs”), ranging from 10% to 49%. The stated goal is to bring manufacturing back to the United States and to “make America wealthy again”. These tariffs will not work. In fact, they may even do the opposite, fail to bring manufacturing back and make America poorer in the process.

China has named three individuals working at the National Security Agency it claims hacked computer systems for the Asian Winter Games earlier this year. The country rarely publishes the names of alleged nation-backed hackers, even though the United States routinely outs actors linked to China. On Tuesday, police in Harbin, where the games took place, named three alleged NSA agents as culprits in the hack—Katheryn A. Wilson, Robert J. Snelling, and Stephen W. Johnson.

People say many things about entropy: entropy increases with time, entropy is disorder, entropy increases with energy, entropy determines the arrow of time, etc.. But I have no idea what entropy is, and from what I find, neither do most other people. This is the introduction I wish I had when first told about entropy, so hopefully you find it helpful. My goal is that by the end of this long post we will have a rigorous and intuitive understanding of those statements, and in particular, why the u

Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately. At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable. Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 Countries have called Representatives of the United States, including the Departments of Commerc

A new report from Reuters today says that Apple supplier Luxshare is considering moving some production outside of China, including to the United States, in response to Trump’s tariffs. According to the report, Luxshare co-founder Wang Laichun made the comments during a call with analysts on Wednesday. Laichun explained that Trump’s tariffs will “have little impact on profits and revenue” for Luxshare, as the company exports “only a small amount of finished products to the United States.” Toda

Trump’s massive 104% tariffs on China are set to go into effect at midnight tonight, a move that will have a major impact on Apple and its supply chain. Ahead of that, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said today that Trump firmly believes that Apple can move iPhone manufacturing to the United States. In response to a question from Maggie Haberman of The New York Times about the types of jobs Trump hopes to create in the U.S. with these tariffs, Leavitt said: “The president wants to

President Trump’s sweeping global tariffs have rocked the stock market since being announced on Tuesday, with just about every major tech company down double-digits. Semiconductors were largely spared from an immediate impact, however, as chips from Taiwan and other nations were exempted. Most electronics sold in the United States are powered by chips made in Asia, meaning tariffs would have a significant impact on prices. But Trump told a White House press pool on Thursday that tariffs on semic

As President Trump pushes his massive global tariffs into effect, America’s former trading partners are designing their own, retaliatory tariffs, that are sure to have a walloping effect on Americans’ pocketbooks. On Thursday, the recently elected prime minister of Canada, Mark Carney, announced a new 25 percent tariff on American-made automobiles. The tariffs will apply to all vehicles that do not comply with the USMCA, the trade agreement between Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. that was signed i

In early 2024, the bird influenza that had been spreading across the globe for nearly three decades did something wholly unexpected: It showed up in dairy cows in the Texas Panhandle. A dangerous bird flu, in other words, was suddenly circulating in mammals — mammals with which people have ongoing, extensive contact. “Holy cow,” says Thomas Friedrich, a virologist at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. “This is how pandemics start.” This bird flu, which scientists call highly pathogenic avian

These more-sweeping changes will only cause delays. The administration could fix the problems with the program via waiver and avoid slowdowns. Shovels could already be in the ground in three states, and they could be in the ground in half the country by the summer without the proposed changes to project selection. 2.

The US government has imposed tariffs of 25 percent on all imports from Mexico and Canada. The measure promoted by Donald Trump threatens the free trade system that the three countries have maintained for more than 30 years. Even before the confirmation that the tariffs went into effect on March 4, Marcelo Ebrard, head of the Mexican Ministry of Economy (SE), warned that these taxes would represent an approximate cost of $20.5 billion dollars for about 89 million American families.
