segment 1, Top of Mind–Politics & Y Combinator (0:00): Sam Altman’s Bay Area incubator gets money from a wealthy Drumpf supporter, and they’ll disavow Drumpf, but not the supporter. Gizmodo things Altman should have to step down. What do we think?

segment 3, Juris Prudent–Warranted Overreach?

To that end, they’ve begun writing warrants that pre-suppose the ability to force you to unlock your phone with your finger prints.
segment 4, Total Recall–Climate Change All Fixed! (45:10 ): That global climate change world meeting we discussed last week? They reached an agreement! But, does it have teeth? Meanwhile, scientists have found a cheap and efficient way to remove CO2 from the air and turn it into fuel.
segment 5, What’s Your Take?–Rewriting The Genetic Code of Life(52:49): Scientists are now taking the genetic modification to the lowest biological building blocks, giving them the ability to manipulate… pretty much anything. Should we apply these capabilities to agriculture? To medicine? To how we reproduce?
