U.S. battery startups hit a rough patch when the One Big Beautiful Bill eliminated battery and EV incentives, undercutting a chunk of future demand. But recently, they've found a lifeline in the defense world, helping to power everything from drones and torpedoes to infantry radios and fighter jets. The Trump administration, despite its open disdain for EVs, acknowledges that batteries are an inescapable part of modern life.

Michael Polansky: The Unassuming Tech Entrepreneur Who's Also Lady Gaga's Partner and He's Revolutionizing Skin Science
Michael Polansky is remarkably unassuming for someone operating in a corner of the world known for outsize egos. Seated at a leafy patio outside a popular bakery in Mill Valley, an affluent town about 15 miles north of San Francisco, Polansky, bespectacled, his fresh face framed by dark hair shot through with gray, has the look and the friendly demeanor of a young professor. He is, in fact, both the co-founder of a buzzy AI and biology startup called Outer Biosciences and the creative, business, and romantic partner to Stefani Germanotta, better known as Lady Gaga. It's an unlikely double life. On the one hand, the couple invariably moves in the world that comes with celebrity; on the other, he's running an outfit that has spent years figuring out how to keep living human tissue alive outside the body for over a month, so far without anyone outside the company knowing.

I was an escort
Some readers may be aware that I have held down a variety of different jobs during my long working career. These include journalist (mostly as magazine editor-in-chief), business director, prison custodial officer, and UK government security policy official. For the past three years, I have worked as an occasional front-line security operative, just a few days a month. I like to think of myself as 'almost retired.' This is when I am not writing, of course, which is my main occupation these days, though the pay is lousy.
