Airr is a podcast app that lets you highlight and share moments from episodes. When I hear an insightful moment in a podcast I can now save a short audio clip by triple tapping my airpods.

The app sends my saved highlights, the podcast transcript and any notes I add to Readwise. 

Narro is a text to speech tool which converts web articles, pdfs, youtube videos and more into a podcast. The AI voices which narrate the text are more than suitable for the short articles I listen too.

This is a great way to listen to text or video content as a podcast in your favourite podcast player!

In 2000, Luis von Ahn was starting his PhD in computer science when he attended a talk and happened to learn about one of Yahoo’s biggest problems: automated bots were signing up for millions of free Yahoo email accounts, and generating tons of spam. Luis’ idea to solve this problem became CAPTCHA, the squiggly letters we type into a website to prove we’re human. He gave away that idea for free, but years later, that same idea had evolved into a new way to monetize language learning on the web, and became Duolingo. Today, the popular app is valued at $1.5 billion, and is seeing a big spike in growth while people are confined to their homes.

Clive had a deadly form of cancer, but fortunately there was a new drug to treat it. Imagine his anger when he was told the treatment was too expensive. He’d entered a world where unique human lives are given a value in a mathematical formula. So how much should we spend to extend or save a life? And are some lives worth more than others?
