🚅 “Magnetic levitation” — Japan’s 300 mph flying supertrain. Momofuku’s trademark crisis. Nutrition Labels for the internet.

Japan’s next-gen bullet train uses “magnetic levitation” to coast 4 inches above the track at 300 mph — Japan’s train megaproject reminds us of America’s Fusion Energy project.

Starting this week, internet companies must display “nutritional facts” for the cost and performance of their internet — The same nutrition labels from your Doritos are about to land on Xfinity.

Momofuku, the legendary noodle brand, owns the trademark on “chili crunch” — But asian restaurant entrepreneurs think copyright feels really a copy-wrong.

Plus, Starbucks just acknowledged that its stores are too loud — So it’s turning down the volume so their baristas can hear you.
