Apple and Angels
Chris EdwardsThisCato study examines wealthy people funding startup businesses. Since the early industrial revolution, angels have been investing in highly risky businesses that financial institutions such as banks won ’t touch. Most such investments fail, but angels occasionally launch a revolution.Steve Wozniak is one of the heroes of America ’s high‐tech boom. He designed the Apple 1 and 2 computers and co ‐founded Apple Computer with Steve Jobs. In the Cato study, I note that Mike Markkula was the angel who gave young and broke Wozniak and Jobs the money to launch their pathbreaking fi...

Manav Sevak, CEO, Memora Health: Interview & Demo
Manav Sevak is the (young and very smart) CEO of Memora Health. I must admit to thinking that their service was just a patient chatbot, but it’s a lot more than that. It’s digitizing care workflows that touch both patients and of course the clinical care teams that support them–especially outside the walls of the hospital. They also collect a lot of patient data, and then guide their patients through their complex journey. Manav dives deep into the product and shows us a tad of the secret sauce behind the relatively simple front end of the product. Memora raised $40m earlier this year ($50m total) with Tr...

A Short Commentary on Why We Advocate for the Treatment of Aging
Recently, I had the occasion to make one of my very infrequent trips to the emergency room. As always the case to date, I get to walk out afterwards, after a very long period of hurry up and wait. Not everyone is so fortunate. One of the things one tends to find in emergency rooms is old people. So many more of life's slings and arrows become an emergency when one is frail, and old people are increasingly frail. Fall over? Emergency room. Sudden infection? Emergency room. And so on and so forth.
Nurses and doctors are inordinately overworked, and there is a long backstory to this state of affairs in which the Americ...

The Ineffable Power of Humor
In the filmed opera Annette, conceived and written by the perpetually-failing-and-suddenly-hip band Sparks (brothers Ronald and Russell Mael), the protagonist, Henry McHenry, is a perpetually failing comedian played by Adam Driver. He’s asked over and over again by his audience “Why did you become a comedian?” He eventually answers “Why? I’ll tell you why. To disarm people. Make them laugh. It’s the only way I know how to tell the truth without getting killed.”
In this fraught time, when the US harbors far and away the most armed civilians,* where enough of them are willing to fire their guns on peopl...

How to Overcome Fear: 6 Powerful Strategies You Can Start Using Today
“When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Fear.
It's so easy to get stuck in it. To let it hold you back.
I have been there many times in my life.
The fear has, for example, held me back from:
Trying new things. It has held me back from trying something new for lunch or a new hobby because I feared I would have a bad experience or fail. And so I stuck to my usual routine and choices.
Asking someone out for a da...

You Need Some Smarter Clothing
BY KIM BELLARD
Much as I’d love to write about Instagram’s feud with the Kardashians over changes to the Instagram feed, and how that and proposed changes to Facebook’s feed reflect Meta’s efforts to combat TikTok’s growing influence, I’ve already given healthcare plenty of warnings about TikTok. Instead, I’ll write about something else that the Kardashians care about: fashion.
Well, not fashion per se, but clothing. If the old, sexist statement was “clothes make the man,” then soon we may be saying “clothes make your health.”
The Washington Post got my attention when it report...
