Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand and other countries are pouring money into the tech sector, and not without reason -- business is set to boom. But the Bloomberg View editorial board says sometimes the best thing states can do to encourage startups is nothing at all.

Why the U.S. Pretends Drone Strikes Are Secret
Yemen and Pakistan have allowed U.S. airstrikes in their territory, and they want to keep it quiet -- but Eli Lake says that diplomatic discretion comes at a price.
Sexual Harassment Is Invisible to Half the Population

Trump's Kinda-Sorta-Probably-Maybe Veep
Although he hasn't made an official announcement, multiple news outlets reported Thursday that Donald Trump has selected Indiana Governor Mike Pence as his running mate. Margaret Carlson reports the prominent social conservative gave his all during his vice-presidential tryout, while Jonathan Bernstein argues the pick -- if confirmed -- would signal to voters that Trump can govern as a normal Republican after all.
