Amazon has officially opened up its Sidewalk IoT
network to developers, allowing anyone to build
devices that can utilise the long-range,
low-bandwidth network. The network primarily
exists to help Ring cameras send motion
notifications even when theyโre offline and allow
Level smart locks to connect to the internet
without the need for battery-sapping Wi-Fi radios,
but it has the potential to benefit a range of
low-data IoT devices. The network reportedly
covers over 90% of the US population.

Newsletter platform, Substack, is seeking millions
from retail investors after failing to raise funds
from traditional investors last year, potentially
due to low revenue of $9 million in 2021 and a
high valuation. The company is offering a 10% cut
from the subscription fees its newsletter writers
charge, totaling over $300 million paid out to
writers, but the lack of transparency on cost and
revenue has raised concerns among investors.

Australian company Vow has created a mammoth
meatball in an attempt to demonstrate the
potential of meat grown from cells, without the
slaughter of animals, and emphasise the link
between livestock production and the climate
crisis. The meatball was created by mixing and
matching cells from different species, as part of
the firm's approach. The company, which is
developing meat from cells of more than 50
different species, raised $56m in investment to
date. The mammoth cells made by Vow are derived
from DNA sequences created at the Australian
Institute for Bioengineering at the University of
Queensland.
