Weekly output: Feds okay T-Mobile-UScellular deal, Rivian adds Google Maps, GENIUS Act becomes law, Mark Vena podcast

July so far is feeling like a traditional August in terms of how under-scheduled it’s been: So far, this month has featured all of three work events to drag me away from my home office. I also left home Thursday to catch that evening’s Fort Reno concert.

7/14/2025: T-Mobile Secures Government Blessing of UScellular Purchase After Ritual Sacrifice of DEI Policies, PCMag

This was yet another case of a post starting with an idea for its headline materializing in my brain. Writing it took a bit longer because I needed to explain the gap between the Department of Justice’s ambivalent thumbs-up and the Federal Communications Commission’s more enthusiastic approval of this deal.

7/15/2025: Rivian Switches to Google Maps for Its EVs’ Navigation, PCMag

Rivian switching from a Mapbox-based navigation app to one built on Google Maps is a bigger deal than might be immediately apparent: That EV manufacturer does not support Apple’s CarPlay or Google’s Android Auto, so the car’s built-in software represents the only way to get driving directions on the biggest screen in the dashboard.

7/18/2025: Trump Signs the GENIUS Act, Creating a Regulatory Framework for Stablecoins, PCMag

I took a little time to look up some useful posts explaining what a stablecoin is and why people and businesses might find a cryptocurrency tied to the value of a real-world asset more useful than a more volatile digital currency. And to point out how President Trump stands to benefit from government regulation of stablecoins.

7/18/2025: Ep 113 SmartTechCheck Podcast — Nvidia and China, chaos at Xbox and Meta “AI superintelligence”, Mark Vena

I suggested we talk about Mark Zuckerberg’s AI ambitions, which remind me of the Facebook founder’s earlier fervor for the metaverse. A normal company might hold its CEO accountable for being so wrong about one tech trend before green-lighting hundreds of millions of dollars in hiring incentives to chase another tech trend–but Zuck’s control of a majority of shareholder votes ensures that Meta cannot be a normal company.

I am interested in speaking with 2-3 guests on the #GlobalConversations webcast to discuss/debate activism in #equityandinclusion.

I am searching for a female discussant(s) for a future Spring #GlobalConversations webcast recording on how #toxicmasculinity affects the progress of EDI initiatives and #organizationalchange. I already have men who add to the talk. Send me a DM if you're interested or know anyone who would, but also would be open to discussing other topics.

January is #NationalBloodDonorMonth - a time to review FDA's blood donation policy, specifically restricting blood donations by men who have sex with men. With advanced diagnostics and blood shortages, is this prudent?

Read in the new Policy Capsule!

Many of my followers will notice I don't toot much about urban planning and I'm ok with that.

This is a fresh account and will have new discussions about, in no particular order, #orgchange #equityandinclusion #belonging #globalmajority #wine #craftbeer #bourbon #inclusiveleadership and #culturalintelligence.

At some point in 2023, I want to be #ProSci certified and in 2024 trained in #CQ. The latter can happen sooner if someone pays for it.

If you are starting your #equityandinclusion journey, The Good Ally by Nova Reid is a good book to read. If you're an experienced practitioner or leader, this book isn't for you. At the same time, for the North American audience, you're learn about the Black and #GlobalMajority UK experience. https://www.novareid.com/the-good-ally

Have you read it @marsharamroop @EDI_SarahMQ @CarolineRN ? Thoughts?

Where are my mixed ethnicity/heritage #GlobalMajority people at? We need to have a conversation about your lived experiences navigating work and personal lives.

This is perfect! We need a change in nomenclature from BIPOC to BIPGM. Doesn't roll off the tongue but it's more reflective of reality. Via https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbu7DQxgv9q/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
