TechTime with Nathan Mumm

Embark on a roller coaster of tech updates and laughter as we navigate the tumultuous OpenAI and The New York Times saga. Feel the heat of the moment as we dissect hacking claims, copyright disputes, and the ramifications for the AI industry. But it's not all courtroom drama; prepare for a shift in gears as we chuckle over Elon Musk's Windows 11 woes and Wendy's foray into the dynamic world of surge pricing. Your fast-food favorites might just get a little more unpredictable, and we're here to give you the scoop.
Nick Espinosa, our cybersecurity expert, joins us to unravel the knotty aftermath of a ransomware attack on Change Healthcare, a linchpin in the US pharmacy supply chain. This isn't your everyday tech talk; it's a reality check on safeguarding our healthcare infrastructure against the ever-looming digital threats. Meanwhile, we're tipping our hats to tradition with a sip of Benjamin Pritchard's Sweet Lucy bourbon-based liqueur.
Concluding this episode is a cultural mash-up where tech meets history and whiskey blends with geekdom. We reminisce about the game-changing Echo One satellite and debate if playing Doom on a smart lawnmower is peak multitasking or just plain madness.
Join our TechTime Radio community, grab your favorite glass, settle in, and let's toast to the extraordinary world of technology that continues to shape our lives in the most unexpected ways.
