In this week’s episode rerun, host Daniel Raimi talks with Kim Stanley Robinson, acclaimed author of many books, most recently “The Ministry for the Future.” Robinson’s books vividly illustrate some of the most devastating potential consequences of climate change, but that’s not all they do—the books also offer innovation and optimism, imagining the ways in which we can prevent some of the worst impacts of climate change and adapt to the impacts that are unavoidable. Robinson discusses his recent visit to COP26 and his views on climate economics, modern monetary theory, space opera, and more.

We’re rebroadcasting this episode from the Resources Radio archive while the podcast team is on a break through the rest of December. We’ll be back with new episodes in the new year; in the meantime, enjoy this throwback and poke around the archive at Resources.org for more topics you might be interested in.

Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz said he would introduce legislation to establish AI sandboxes to allow companies “room to breathe” without running up against regulations. Cruz announced that proposal as well as a legislative framework for AI policy ahead of a Wednesday hearing before the Subcommittee on Science, Manufacturing, and Competitiveness on the administration’s recent AI Action Plan. The concept of regulatory sandboxes were among the more than 90 policy recommendations outlined in that document. Cruz said during the hearing: “Under the Sandbox Act, an AI user developer can identify obstructive regulations and request a waiver or a modification, which the government may grant for two years via a written agreement that must include a participant’s responsibility to mitigate health or consumer risks,” adding that “a regulatory sandbox is not a free pass. People creating or using AI still have to follow the same laws as everyone else.”

Drew Myklegard is stepping down from his role as deputy federal CIO after nearly four years, FedScoop has learned. Two sources with knowledge of the matter said Myklegard told colleagues he’s taking a role in the private sector and that his last day will be Sept. 22. A holdover from the Biden administration, Myklegard was appointed to the deputy federal CIO role in early 2022, after a more than eight-year stint in supporting IT operations at the Department of Veterans Affairs. During his time in the Office of the Federal CIO, he championed a number of key governmentwide technology modernization initiatives, including rolling out a new policy reforming federal cloud security authorizations under FedRAMP and guidance on how agencies acquire and inventory AI tools, among others. On Monday, Myklegard was recognized with a FedScoop 50 award in the Golden Gov: Federal Executive of the Year category.

bioniX Musical RefleX - For the love of.music, let yourself grow ....

—the artist now known as Bionix—found his musical destiny on the streets of West Alameda, California. There, amid the city's rich cultural mosaic, the beats of acid techno and hyphy hip-hop mingled with the legacy of 90s West Coast hip-hop. It was a golden age, and for Jess, it was an education. He didn't just listen to the city's rhythms; he absorbed and remixed them.
As a young Latino nicknamed “Breeze” by his crew, he built his world of sound from the ground up, turning salvaged electronics into beat machines and blending hip-hop's soulful storytelling with futuristic synths. This love for tech and tunes fused into a sound that was raw and utterly original: cyberpunk hip-hop, a collision of urban grit and sci-fi sonics.

Through years of grinding, odd jobs, and late-night sessions fueled by scraped-together savings and a second-hand laptop, he earned his stripes. As the artist "Glazzes," he electrified underground clubs and spread his sound across platforms like SoundCloud and TikTok, drawing listeners in with tracks that showcased both rawness and finesse.

Fame brought new challenges—the pressure to evolve and to navigate the industry without compromising his creative vision. But change has always been a catalyst for Jess, not a compromise. Now, as Bionix, he continues to push boundaries, building a career rooted in sonic innovation and community impact. His career is a testament to his dedication, supporting his family and uplifting others through his music. Looking ahead, he plans to launch music workshops in his hometown of Alameda, passing his journey and skills on to the next generation of creatives.

Music is more than sound for Jess; it's his lifeblood, his compass, his constant evolution. He welcomes everyone into his world, from artists to explorers, because passion is the only credential that matters. "Before you bounce," he says, "a little reminder: life’s rhythm is bold. Embrace range. Stretch your sound.
Whether making music or making moves, let creativity be your compass."

As he continues to build his legacy, Jess remains grateful for his listeners. He appreciates everyone who has supported his music and encourages them to follow the "dopetok klick," where he drops new productions every Friday. He is always open to requests, emphasizing, "for the love of music..." Only the best of tiktok and more!

An odd teenager, that (for unknown reasons) got a strong urge(enough for painting a shirt and a face mask) to look like Gabumon, a BotBr, and decided to open his Soundcloud(previously privative) for publishing more specific songs.

My Dj Sets and Productions were not created entirely for club and dj sets. they serve as a reference to my journey as I can revisit and study sets of when I began and compare them to where I am now, 
allowing me to study my self and greater evolve with music. Respect the arts...
