"Every day $1bn worth of goods crosses the river dividing Detroit, Michigan, and Windsor, Ontario, two largely blue-collar US and Canadian cities that have come to act as one in the creation of North America’s auto industry.
News this week of Donald Trump’s escalating trade spat with Canada has everyone worried. Political and economic leaders and observers labeled the move an act of “hubris” , blamed Trump’s “ego”, and called the escalation “insanity”.
“We don’t need Canada, they need us,” Trump declared.
But many are hoping that Trump’s imposition of 50% tariffs on Canadian goods this week will not last long, with the upcoming midterm elections as a pivotal reason the plan may be scrapped.
Control of the US Congress hangs in the balance and will almost certainly be decided by several close Michigan races. It also comes just two months after polling highlighted Michiganders’ fatigue with and opposition to the president’s unprecedented tariff program.
By a 63%-31% margin, residents here oppose tariffs on Canadian goods, according to a June Epic-MRA poll, including 35% of Republicans. Meanwhile, nearly 75% of Michiganders said the tariffs are fueling high prices.
Trump doubling down on an unpopular policy deep into election season is viewed by many observers as a gift to Democrats, and there is a real possibility that it contributes to a midterm loss for the Republicans. Meanwhile, there seems to be little upside for Trump.
“I don’t understand what Trump is thinking,” the Epic-MRA pollster Bernie Porn said."

The Trump FCC’s Chinese Drone Ban Continues To Be A Sloppy, Protectionist Mess

@thekoreaherald editorial: “Washington’s rapid shift from temporary global duties to new Section 301 #tariffs shows that #protectionism is no longer a temporary negotiating tactic but an enduring element of economic policy. Tariffs now serve several objectives at once: generating revenue, encouraging domestic production and strengthening Washington's bargaining position. Future US administrations may alter the tools, but reversing the broader trajectory will only become harder.”

Regulatory FUD and the China Label: Who Really Benefits From AI Panic

The Moose has Left the Woods!
OR when your business model is crumbling before your eyes - go BEG the government to "protect" your product!
AI Executives are shitting their pants given the release of Moonshot AI’s Kimi K3. I seem to recall a similar situation re DeepSeek-1 in Jan. 2025.
All the freaking out about "winning and losing" and whining about "distillation" re China are the WRONG things to focus on.
It is a fallacy to think US Frontier Labs would be successful in locking down AI models and charging high prices for access in perpetuity. It is inevitable that open weight models would catch up, and put SERIOUS pressure on pricing.
Welcome to software - It just happens that China is leading the charge on this one.
The magic is NOT about the model. The magic is creating the guardrails and infrastructure (ecosystem) around the model, and supporting practical use cases the model excels at, and making them so good to use that no user wants to switch to something "almost as good", even if it’s a touch cheaper.
Net-net, governments cannot stop software at the border. Import/Export controls will NOT be effective at stopping Chinese firms from distilling US models, even if the USA is successful at starving China of inference, which also will NOT happen. https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/ai-execs-quaking-boots-chinese-models #AI #LLMs #Kimi-K3 #Kimi #FrontierModels #USA #China #ImportControls #ExportControls #Software #Distillation #Open-Weight-Models #AIPloicy #Protectionism #AIRegulation #DeepSeek #Software #OpenSource #Moonshot

Why Trump’s New Tariff Obsession is a Dangerous Gamble
The Tariff Trap: Why Trump’s Economic Obsession Risks a "Catastrophic" Reckoning by Winston Wendell Watching the latest news about Donald Trump and his planned wave of new tariffs, I can't help but feel like we've seen this before—and not in a good way. Trump likes to talk up these tariffs, spinning them as a way to force other countries to play by our rules and to shield the American economy. But truthfully, the reality looks a lot harsher. What we're seeing is a strategy built for […]https://bluepress.blog/2026/07/21/why-trumps-new-tariff-obsession-is-a-dangerous-gamble/

Weekly output: Waze updates, Google Images turns 25, Samsung turns to more titanium, Frontier Airlines + Starlink, bill to ban Chinese cars
This week may have featured an unwanted import of smoky, hazy air from Canadian wildfires, but at least that miasma did not descend on the District until Friday–the day after I got to the one Fort Reno concert I’m likely to be able to see this summer.
Patreon readers got a bonus post assessing when I’m likely to need to replace my three oldest computers–and explaining why the oldest machine is not at the front of that list.
7/13/2026: Waze Gets AI, Personalization Options—Including One to Make It Less Chatty, PCMag
I have to admit that I had not used Waze in quite some time, so I downloaded a copy to refresh my memory. I’m glad I did, as this exercise reminded that Waze has yet to match Google’s ability to show which routing will be most efficient.
7/14/2026: Google Images Marks Its 25 Birthday by Adding AI Image Generation, PCMag
This was another Google item from an embargoed announcement. It was going to be an unusually short post, but then I realized that Google’s anniversary post didn’t mention the date the company launched Google Images. Some quick Googling surfaced a New York Times story apparently written on that day, July 12, 2001.
7/14/2026: Samsung Teases New Screen Substrate for Its Next Foldable: Titanium, PCMag
One of my editors asked if I could pick up this announcement; since I try to be the guy who solves problems for my editors and since I rarely get to cover metallurgical topics, I said I would.
7/15/2026: Frontier Airlines Is Adding Starlink, But You Might Have to Pay for It, PCMag
I was going to write this Tuesday but had to set it aside for the Samsung news. But that delay gave me some extra time to send a further round of questions to Frontier’s PR office about their weird unwillingness to say what the service will cost (if an ultra-low-cost carrier that literally has “ULCC” as its stock ticker doesn’t say upfront that a service is free, it’s not going to be free) and whether they would finally add power outlets (apparently not).
7/18/2026: Bill Would Ban Chinese Connected Cars in the US—From Sale and on the Streets, PCMag
I could have written this post in fewer words if I hadn’t gotten into how Congress has done nothing to address people’s privacy concerns about non-Chinese connected cars, but I wasn’t going to do that. I will not stop reminding readers about how Congress keeps failing to pass any sort of comprehensive privacy legislation.
