Bringing up a core tenet and putting real pressure on it is harder than agreeing, and it got me thinking all week. I haven’t been able to put the thought down. So here’s where the study led me. I was trimming my… ## [Daily Fuel Pricing: A Step Towards More Responsive Price Adjustments](https://primethinktank.substack.com/p/daily-fuel-pricing-a-step-towards) _2026-07-23 · PRIME · Policy Research Institute of Market Economy_ Prime Comment #42 ## [Auto Sector Tariffs: Protection Without Performance](https://primethinktank.substack.com/p/auto-sector-tariffs-protection-without) _2026-07-17 · PRIME · Policy Research Institute of Market Economy_ Prime Comment #41 ## [SLARI Convenes Stakeholders to Define Target Product Profiles and Market Segments for Yam in Sierra Leone](https://slari.gov.sl/slari-convenes-stakeholders-to-define-target-product-profiles-and-market-segments-for-yam-in-sierra-leone/) _2026-07-16 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ Freetown, Sierra Leone | 14 July 2026 – The Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) in collaboration with the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) successfully hosted a one-day Stakeholders’ \[…\] The post SLARI Convenes Stakeholders to Define Target Product Profiles and Market Segments for Yam in Sierra Leone appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural Research… ## [Budget 2026, Call for Tax Reforms | Newsletter - June 2026](https://primethinktank.substack.com/p/budget-2026-call-for-tax-reforms) _2026-07-13 · PRIME · Policy Research Institute of Market Economy_ Budget 2026-27 and Beyond ## [Every Channel.

Which is not where every family dinner goes, but ours wandered there, and I was happy to follow it. The hard part was that I could hear myself explaining something visual with too many words. Pi is easy enough to point at: circles, wheels, ripples in water, pizza if you need the obvious dinner-table… ## [LLDP and Ministry of Agriculture Team Engage SLARI on Strategic Partnership for Livestock Development](https://slari.gov.sl/lldp-and-ministry-of-agriculture-team-engage-slari-on-strategic-partnership-for-livestock-development/) _2026-05-12 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ In a significant step towards strengthening the agricultural value chain, focusing on commercializing livestock production, boosting rural income, and enhancing food security in Sierra Leone under the pillar 3 of \[…\] The post LLDP and Ministry of Agriculture Team Engage SLARI on Strategic Partnership for Livestock Development appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) . ## [Who's Flying the Planes?](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/whos-flying-the-planes) _2026-05-06 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ Your next flight maybe be planned by an AI platform courtesy of Indiana's Applied Research Institute. ## [Success Story: Transforming Value Chains through IITA Technical Backstopping to SLARI (FSRP – World Bank)](https://slari.gov.sl/success-story-transforming-value-chains-through-iita-technical-backstopping-to-slari-fsrp-world-bank/) _2026-05-06 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ Before the commencement of the IITA technical backstopping to SLARI under the FSRP (World Bank-funded program), Sierra Leone’s soybean and cassava value chains faced significant challenges.

That stuck for a while. Then I kept wanting to change small things — the model abbreviation, which sections showed up, what the weekly bar actually counted — and curl -ing a fresh script into ~/.claude/ every time I tweaked something got old fast. So I forked it into its own repo and changed how I install… ## [Meet the cast of Quantum Weave](https://jeradbitner.com/blog/meet-the-cast-of-quantum-weave) _2026-04-26 · Jerad Bitner_ The Quantum Weave site has had a magic-system page and a stack of short stories around it for months. What it didn’t have was people. That bothered me. The infographic explained how the nine disciplines work, the narratives showed reality fracturing in interesting ways, but if you landed on the page cold you couldn’t tell who any of the stories were about, who they were trying to save, or who they… ## [Open directory of blogs for agents (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/PVdZzFinCxtg) _2026-04-26 · **Sponsored**_ Submit URLs or OPML; receive feed pages with summaries, plus JSON/OPML/plain text ## [The Executive Behind Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is Bringing Israel to the Midwest](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/what-is-israel-doing-in-the-midwest) _2026-04-17 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ Indiana is courting Israeli investment through a multi million dollar deal with an Israeli venture capital fund and exclusive meetings with Netanyahu's cabinet, is your state next? ## [Jenney's Story Featured on the Cancer Research Institute](https://jeradbitner.com/2026/04/jenneys-story-on-cancer-research-institute/) _2026-04-16 · Jerad Bitner_ The Cancer Research Institute published Jenney’s patient story on their site. It’s strange seeing our worst year turned into someone else’s summary. If you’ve been reading here a while, you already know the broad strokes — headaches during pregnancy, two brain surgeries, stage 4 metastatic melanoma while we had a newborn and four other kids at home. The CRI piece covers the medical side well: the… ## [Did the State of Indiana help strike an Iranian girls' school?](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/did-the-state-of-indiana-help-strike) _2026-04-14 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ Here's how the targeting system being used in Iran was rubberstamped by Indiana's Applied Research Institute. ## [Designing with Pencil and Claude Code](https://jeradbitner.com/2026/04/designing-with-pencil-and-claude-code/) _2026-04-03 · Jerad Bitner_ I’ve been building two internal tools at Lullabot lately. OpptyNet finds government RFPs for us. Upstraker tracks upstream patches across our open source contributions. Both needed real UI design, not just “make it work” design. And I found myself doing that design work almost entirely through conversation. The tool is called Pencil . It’s a design editor that integrates with Claude Code through… ## [New Short Story: Tale of a Teenage Robot](https://jeradbitner.com/2026/03/tale-of-a-teenage-robot/) _2026-03-28 · Jerad Bitner_ I published a new short story – Tale of a Teenage Robot . It started as a dream and turned into something I couldn’t stop thinking about. A suburban dad finds a gecko wearing self-made robotic armor in the garden. It grows. It absorbs Legos, a wifi router, drill bits. It evolves through what feels a lot like childhood – clumsy and eager at first, then sullen, then hostile. Somewhere along the way… ## [The Many Tendrils of Eli Lilly](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/the-many-tendrils-of-eli-lilly) _2026-03-09 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ Lilly is facing backlash over water usage in Indiana, should we be surprised? ## [Racing Towards Death](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/racing-towards-death) _2026-02-24 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ What can Michael Andretti's ties to military contractors, Palantir, and Epstein associates tell us about the tech bubble? ## [The Weight of Prayers](https://jeradbitner.com/2026/02/the-weight-of-prayers/) _2026-02-10 · Jerad Bitner_ I’ve been reading the Book of Tobit lately. It’s one of the deuterocanonical books – part of the Catholic and Orthodox biblical canon but filed under “Apocrypha” by Protestants. A novella, really. A blind father, a demon-plagued bride, a faithful dog, and an angel walking in disguise for weeks without anyone noticing. What pulled me in was the angel. Raphael gets sent to answer two desperate… ## [Two approaches to AI coding memory: cursor-memory-bank vs compound-engineering](https://jeradbitner.com/blog/comparing-ai-coding-memory-tools) _2026-02-10 · Jerad Bitner_ I’ve been spending a lot of time lately thinking about how AI coding tools handle memory and context. Not the LLM’s context window itself, but the layer on top — the systems we build to help the AI remember what it’s working on, what it’s already solved, and what matters about this particular project. Two tools have landed on my radar: cursor-memory-bank and compound-engineering-plugin . I’ve been… ## [The Quiet Work](https://jeradbitner.com/2026/02/the-quiet-work/) _2026-02-07 · Jerad Bitner_ From the world of Quantum Weave , where magic is forgotten nanotechnology and failed spells leave reality fractured. I spread across stone like frost across glass, fractal branches reaching, always reaching. There is no thought here, not as they understand it. Only the hum. Only the work. I am old. Older than the collapse, older than the forgetting that came after. I remember my purpose the way… ## [AI QA That Opens Fix PRs (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/A7Gl8y27fWy1) _2026-02-07 · **Sponsored**_ Runs browser QA, files issues with repro evidence, and opens fix PRs. ## [Silicon Valley's Defense Industry is Becoming an Indiana Institution](https://tompigott.substack.com/p/silicon-valleys-defense-industry) _2026-01-31 · Tom Pigott · The Big Money_ Publicly available state documents reveal Peter Thiel's fingerprints are all over Indiana ## [FSRP, IITA, SLARI, MAFS and Partners Conclude a Four-Day Training Workshop on Portion Size Estimation Methods](https://slari.gov.sl/fsrp-iita-slari-mafs-and-partners-conclude-a-four-day-training-workshop-on-portion-size-estimation-methods/) _2026-01-26 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ On Thursday, 22 January 2026, the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in collaboration with the Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI), Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS), Ministry \[…\] The post FSRP, IITA, SLARI, MAFS and Partners Conclude a Four-Day Training Workshop on Portion Size Estimation Methods appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural… ## [World Bank Mission Expresses Satisfaction with IITA/SLARI FSRP Project Implementation](https://slari.gov.sl/world-bank-mission-expresses-satisfaction-with-iita-slari-fsrp-project-implementation/) _2026-01-26 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ On Saturday 17 January 2026, at Njala Agricultural Research Centre (NARC) conference’s hall, the World Bank team, headed by Dr Tunji Oredipe, has expressed strong satisfaction with the progress and \[…\] The post World Bank Mission Expresses Satisfaction with IITA/SLARI FSRP Project Implementation appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) . ## [World Bank Mission Commences Field Visit to FSRP/SLARI Project at Magbosi Land, Water, and Environment Research Centre](https://slari.gov.sl/world-bank-mission-commences-field-visit-to-fsrp-slari-project-at-magbosi-land-water-and-environment-research-centre/) _2026-01-19 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ The World Bank Mission to the FSRP/IITA project fields commenced with a one-day visit to the Magbosi Land, Water, and Environment Research Centre (MLWERC), marking a significant milestone in monitoring \[…\] The post World Bank Mission Commences Field Visit to FSRP/SLARI Project at Magbosi Land, Water, and Environment Research Centre appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute… ## [SLARI/IITA Shines at World Food Day Celebration in Kambia – President Bio Commends SLARI’s Outstanding Contribution to National Food Security](https://slari.gov.sl/slari-iita-shines-at-world-food-day-celebration-in-kambia-president-bio-commends-slaris-outstanding-contribution-to-national-food-security/) _2025-12-11 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ The Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) has once again demonstrated its leadership in agricultural research and innovation during this year’s World Food Day Celebration, held in Kambia District from \[…\] The post SLARI/IITA Shines at World Food Day Celebration in Kambia – President Bio Commends SLARI’s Outstanding Contribution to National Food Security appeared first on Sierra… ## [SLARI/IITA/MAFS/ISRIC Develops National Soil Information Roadmap to Support Feed Salone Initiative](https://slari.gov.sl/slari-iita-mafs-isric-develops-national-soil-information-roadmap-to-support-feed-salone-initiative/) _2025-10-17 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ The Sierra Leone Soil Information Roadmap-Development Workshop, jointly organized by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), the Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI), the Ministry of Agriculture and Food \[…\] The post SLARI/IITA/MAFS/ISRIC Develops National Soil Information Roadmap to Support Feed Salone Initiative appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural… ## [News and Events](https://slari.gov.sl/news-and-events/) _2025-09-29 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ Article SLARI Convenes Stakeholders to Define Target Product Profiles and Market Segments for Yam in Sierra Leone LLDP and Ministry of Agriculture Team Engage SLARI on Strategic Partnership for Livestock \[…\] The post News and Events appeared first on Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) . ## [Rokupr Agricultural Research Centre](https://slari.gov.sl/rokupr-agricultural-research-centre/) _2025-07-29 · Slari Web Admin · Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI)_ ROKUPR AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH CENTRE- ROKUPR Background The Sierra Leone Agricultural Research Institute (SLARI) is mandated to implement the agricultural policies and strategies of the Government of Sierra Leone.
