The Diff
Incisive analysis at the intersection of finance, technology, and the forces shaping the future.
The Diff by Byrne Hobart occupies a unique niche at the intersection of technology, finance, and geopolitics. Each issue attempts to answer the question: "In a few centuries, when historians reach a consensus on what was happening today, what will they believe?" The result is some of the most intellectually ambitious analysis in the newsletter space.
Free subscribers receive weekly essays, while paid members get daily issues covering Big Tech, startups, financial markets, and the competition between the United States and China. Hobart's writing attracts a sophisticated audience of investors, founders, and strategists who appreciate his ability to connect seemingly unrelated dots across industries. He also co-hosts "The Riff" podcast with Erik Torenberg.
