JD Tuccille, Reason, May 12, 2025. excerpt: Putting major opposition parties under the designation of “extremists” will be subject to surveillance. This is a horrifying step towards democracy. “One of the things I appreciate about America is that when the federal government attacks free speech, it is instantly pushed back into civil society,” replies Jacob Muchangama, future director of free speech at Vanderbilt University, responds to the controversy. “People take us on the streets.

Why the L&D no code isn’t always a smooth voyage The no-code movement has changed the way learning and development (L&D) teams approach digital solutions. The simplicity of drag and drop allows anyone to build workflows, automate manual tasks, and develop custom learning portals. No developer required. But while the promises of speed, agility and empowerment are real, risk is also realistic. The no-code platform offers incredible control to L&D professionals, but that control can backfire when misused or misunderstood. From malicious goals to poor governance, no-code projects can fail just like traditional projects. Good news? Most pitfalls can be…
Donald Cardwell, a British history of science and technology, famously observed that “no country has been more historically more creative than a short mass.” Known as Cardwell’s law, this dictum haunts many people who are worried about the future of innovation. Can the US, or other countries, be freed from the Cage of Cardwell’s laws and create an environment rather than cultivating innovation indefinitely? It will help to expand from the national level to the urban level to a better understanding of this challenge. Cities often act as engines of innovation.

How Small Lessons Can Drive Big Impact Attention spans are shrinking; research famously pegged the average human attention span at around 8 seconds (shorter than a goldfish). Modern learners also expect information on demand and in bite-sized formats, much like they consume social media or YouTube tutorials.

Best practices that will work in the next compliance training When most employees hear the term “compliance training,” the initial response lies between yawning and sighing. Dry module. Legal terminology. Infinite click-through. But in reality, compliance training in the workplace is not just about chopting boxes, but also about protecting your people, your brand, and your revenue. Also, for L&D leaders, the question of how to make compliance training effective is the high stakes. Ineffective compliance training creates real business risks, not only because it scores low, but also because it does not bring yawning learners. Legal exposure, reputational damage,…
