On Your World of Creativity, we travel around the world talking with creative practitioners who turn ideas into impact. In this special roundtable episode, Mark brings together leaders from film, animation, hospitality, consumer brands, immersive experiences, and big-tech UX to explore one powerful theme:Teamwork.When creative outcomes depend on dozens—or even hundreds—of contributors, how do you align vision, manage complexity, and still leave room for magic?Today's PanelistsMichael Robinson — Hotel & Hospitality Operations LeaderDiego Pulido — Lead UX Designer, Amazon (formerly Google, Walmart, Adobe, JPMorganChase)Matt McLean — Organic Consumer Juice Brand FounderTom Bairstow — Event, Concert Production & Immersive Visual Experiences Rich Magallanes — Children's & Animated Content ProducerSteven Puri — Focus app creator, ex-studio exec/producer Fox, DreamWorks, SonyTogether, they share real-world lessons from film sets, animation studios, hospitality teams, live events, consumer brands, and product design at scale.In This Episode, We Explore:Creativity as a Team Sport. What great collaboration actually looks like across industries—and why creativity doesn't happen in isolation.Aligning Vision Across Many Contributors. How leaders communicate creative direction clearly when working with writers, designers, engineers, performers, vendors, and operational teams.Conflict, Constraints & Creative Breakthroughs. How budget limits, timelines, technical requirements, and differing opinions can either block creativity—or unlock it.Leadership in Collaborative Environments. What it means to lead when you're not the only decision-maker, how to build trust quickly, and why delegation is essential for scale.Practical Takeaways for Better Collaboration.

Episode Sponsor - Airia.comThe AI Compiler Debate: Anthropic's Claude-generated C compiler has sparked controversy; while marketed as a milestone, hands-on testing reveals it is fragile, significantly slower than traditional compilers (like GCC), and heavily reliant on human-written code.The SaaS "Death Spiral": The traditional "per-seat" licensing model for software is under threat as AI agents begin to do the work of multiple people, leading to massive market cap losses for giants like Salesforce and Adobe.Safety and Ethics Concerns: Beyond the "doomerism" of upcoming AI documentaries, real-world concerns are mounting, including lawsuits against AI-powered surgical tools (TruDi Navigation System) and Meta's patent for AI that replicates the online behavior of deceased users.Innovation vs. "Vibe Coding": There is a growing shift toward "vibe coding"—prioritizing the speed of AI generation over long-term stability—which critics argue creates bloated software and significant technical debt.The Rise of Autonomous Models: Intelligence is becoming a commodity through high-performance open-weight models (like Qwen and MiniMax), pushing the industry away from human-centric dashboards toward autonomous orchestration.@trikcode@rushicrypto

In this episode of The Risk Reversal Podcast, Dan Nathan and Guy Adami break down the massive rotation rocking the tech sector. Why are investors dumping software darlings like Salesforce, Adobe, and Oracle while Apple hits new highs? The guys debate whether the "AI tailwind" has officially become a headwind for SaaS companies and if the massive infrastructure spend by Microsoft and Google will ever generate a real return. After the break, Dan sits down with Jason Wilk, Founder and CEO of Dave ($DAVE). Jason shares his incredible founder journey—from a professional golf aspirant to landing Mark Cuban as a lead investor who capped his salary at $30k. They discuss how Dave is using AI-driven underwriting to disrupt JPMorgan and Wells Fargo, slashing default rates from 20% to 1%, and the future of fintech in a high-rate environment. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media

I've been delaying this episode for a long time because the topic is genuinely difficult and, for many of us, scary. AI is threatening not just to our livelihood, but to our sense of self-worth as creators.In this episode, I don't offer false guarantees about job security. Instead, I frame the problem through the lens of microeconomics and rational incentives to help you understand how to remain employable. We discuss why you must separate your ego from your current skill set and how to position yourself not as a competitor to AI, but as a force multiplier.• The Hard Truth: I explain why the "abstinence" approach—hoping the industry rejects AI or that it turns out to be a bubble—is a high-risk gamble that is unlikely to succeed.• Ego vs. Employability: We discuss the difficult mental shift required to disconnect your self-worth from the act of writing code manually, allowing you to adopt new tools without feeling like you are losing your identity.• The Microeconomics of Your Job: Understand the cold reality that a rational market only pays you if you generate more value than you cost; if AI can do the same task with less risk or cost, the market will choose AI.• The Non-Zero Sum Game: Learn why the economy isn't a fixed pie. The goal isn't just to survive, but to recognize that the combination of Human + AI can generate more total value than either can alone.• Multiplicative Value: I challenge you to stop thinking about linear skill acquisition and start thinking like a manager: how can you use AI to multiply your output and become indispensable?• Accepting Atrophy: We confront the reality that your core coding skills may degrade over time as you rely on AI, and why accepting this trade-off might be necessary for your career survival.

We discuss the recent market dislocation where SaaS stocks are crashing while the broader market hits all-time highs. We break down the three main fears driving the sell-off and debate which companies—like Adobe and Salesforce—are actually at risk. Finally, we share how we are handling the volatility, with Jeff buying more Shopify and Jason using a "barbell strategy" to stay sane.02:27 Housekeeping03:53 Episode Setup06:37 Three AI Threats to SaaS: 09:23 Is AI Really Different? 12:59 Stock Spotlight: Adobe18:35 The Real Issue: Moats, Stickiness, Switching Costs, and Resetting SaaS Multiples23:18 LLMs Aren't Free23:49 Why SaaS Stocks Are Selling Off25:11 Shopify vs. Toast27:06 Disruption Timelines & Valuation Reratings29:19 Earnings Season as the Reality Check31:53 Tactical Moves: Selling Puts for Margin of Safety33:02 Barbell Portfolio Strategy: Growth on One Side, Dividends on the OtherCompanies mentioned: ABNB, ADBE, ASAN, CRM, CRWD, ENPH, EPR, MNDY, MSFT, NOW, O, PYPL, SHOP, SQ, TEAM, TOST, TTDFind where to listen & subscribe,  portfolio contests, and contact information at https://investingunscripted.com*****************************************To get 15% off any paid plan at fiscal.ai, visit https://fiscal.ai/unscriptedListen to the Chit Chat Stocks Podcast for discussions on stocks, financial markets, super investors, and more.

Kiren Sekar (CPO @ Samsara) joins us to deconstruct the "Innovation Engine" behind Samsara, and how this system drives real-world impact and ROI across their products. We explore Samsara's decade-long compound product strategy and the mechanics of accelerating feedback loops in an era where the primary bottlenecks shift from code generation to customer feedback and absorption of change. Kiren details how their data flywheel expands the aperture of what is possible to build and we dive into the system of customer-driven innovation: advisory boards, “spark sessions” to test hypotheses and gain unfiltered feedback. Plus we talk about the power of embedding engineers in frontline environments (from truckyards to construction sites) to cultivate “taste,” customer empathy and trigger non-linear ideas. ABOUT KIREN SEKARKiren Sekar is the Chief Product Officer at Samsara (NYSE: IOT), where he has helped lead the company from a hardware-hacking startup in a basement to a global leader in Connected Operations with over $1.5B in ARR. An early leader at Meraki (acquired by Cisco for $1.2B) and an Apple veteran with multiple patents, Kiren specializes in the rare intersection of hardware, massive-scale data, and AI. He is the architect of a platform that now processes trillions of data points for the industries that keep the world running—trucking, construction, and logistics. This episode is brought to you by Retool!What happens when your team can't keep up with internal tool requests?

Instead of following trends, Satisfy chooses to build a brand that's different. Daniel said it best: “The easiest way to do something quite different is to not look at anything at all.”In a landscape where brands benchmark competitors and chase fleeting trends, Satisfy focuses on culture. They hire for it before skill, treat customers as guests, and think in decades rather than moments.This philosophy shines through in the Satisfy Pro Team. It's not just a sponsorship roster, but a reflection of the brand's commitment to process and discipline. The key takeaway: Most brands chase relevance, but Satisfy builds consistency. They react to culture, while Satisfy hires for it. They aim for long-term impact, not short-term hype.This conversation is a masterclass in long-term brand strategy and the discipline of saying no.Watch the video version of this podcast on Youtube ▶️: https://youtu.be/CRUMwdDoj5o

John Glasgow, is the founder, CEO and CFO of Campfire AI native ERP with more than $100m in funding, built to help high growth companies close faster, get richer visibility from their accounting data, and scale. John brings his insights as an operator who has spent time in FP&A and strategic finance, including at Adobe and an executive at Invoice To Go, leading that finance company to a $625 million sale to bill.com. Campfire came out of firsthand frustration with legacy ERPs and a need to rebuild the general ledger for the AI era. In this episode: My years in FP&A and strategic finance at Adobe before becoming a founder  CFA Certification  Invoice to Go acquisition what I learned   The frustration and origin story of frustration and why Campfire was set up Why building our own AI model makes sense  Key quote: “If you slap AI on top of an ERP with summarized revenue data, then you're essentially gonna get no insights that are of any value.”

Is AI eating the software industry, or is it just making it more powerful?In this episode, we sit down with Braden Dennis, CEO and co-founder of Fiscal.ai, to discuss the shift happening in enterprise SaaS. If you've watched our videos, you know we use Fiscal's charts every single day to analyze the markets, so it was great to get Braden's perspective on where the industry is headed.We dive deep into the software apocalypse narrative and whether it's based in reality or just a market overreaction. Braden explains why maintaining software is getting easier, how his engineering team has achieved 10x productivity, and why internal AI solutions are coming for the "busy work" that off-the-shelf SaaS can't solve.Join us on Discord with Semiconductor Insider, sign up on our website: www.chipstockinvestor.com/membershipSupercharge your analysis with AI!

Emmanuel et Guillaume discutent de divers sujets liés à la programmation, notamment les systèmes de fichiers en Java, le Data Oriented Programming, les défis de JPA avec Kotlin, et les nouvelles fonctionnalités de Quarkus. Ils explorent également des sujets un peu fous comme la création de datacenters dans l'espace. Pas mal d'architecture aussi. Enregistré le 13 février 2026 Téléchargement de l'épisode LesCastCodeurs-Episode-337.mp3 ou en vidéo sur YouTube. News Langages Comment implémenter un file system en Java https://foojay.io/today/bootstrapping-a-java-file-system/ Créer un système de fichiers Java personnalisé avec NIO.2 pour des usages variés (VCS, archives, systèmes distants). Évolution Java: java.io.File (1.0) -> NIO (1.4) -> NIO.2 (1.7) pour personnalisation via FileSystem. Recommander conception préalable; API Java est orientée POSIX. Composants clés à considérer: Conception URI (scheme unique, chemin). Gestion de l'arborescence (BD, métadonnées, efficacité). Stockage binaire (emplacement, chiffrement, versions). Minimum pour démarrer (4 composants): Implémenter Path (représente fichier/répertoire). Étendre FileSystem (instance du système). Étendre FileSystemProvider (moteur, enregistré par scheme). Enregistrer FileSystemProvider via META-INF/services. Étapes suivantes: Couche BD (arborescence), opérations répertoire/fichier de base, stockage, tests. Processus long et exigeant, mais gratifiant.   Un article de brian goetz sur le futur du data oriented programming en Java https://openjdk.org/projects/amber/design-notes/beyond-records Le projet Amber de Java introduit les "carrier classes", une évolution des records qui permet plus de flexibilité tout en gardant les avantages du pattern matching et de la reconstruction Les records imposent des contraintes strictes (immutabilité, représentation exacte de l'état) qui limitent leur usage pour des classes avec état muable ou dérivé Les carrier classes permettent de déclarer une state description complète et canonique sans imposer que la représentation interne corresponde exactement à l'API publique Le modificateur "component" sur les champs permet au compilateur de dériver automatiquement les accesseurs pour les composants alignés avec la state description Les compact constructors sont généralisés aux carrier classes, générant automatiquement l'initialisation des component fields Les carrier classes supportent la déconstruction via pattern matching comme les records, rendant possible leur usage dans les instanceof et switch Les carrier interfaces permettent de définir une state description sur une interface, obligeant les implémentations à fournir les accesseurs correspondants L'extension entre carrier classes est possible, avec dérivation automatique des appels super() quand les composants parent sont subsumés par l'enfant Les records deviennent un cas particulier de carrier classes avec des contraintes supplémentaires (final, extends Record, component fields privés et finaux obligatoires) L'évolution compatible des records est améliorée en permettant l'ajout de composants en fin de liste et la déconstruction partielle par préfixe Comment éviter les pièges courants avec JPA et Kotlin - https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2026/01/how-to-avoid-common-pitfalls-with-jpa-and-kotlin/ JPA est une spécification Java pour la persistance objet-relationnel, mais son utilisation avec Kotlin présente des incompatibilités dues aux différences de conception des deux langages Les classes Kotlin sont finales par défaut, ce qui empêche la création de proxies par JPA pour le lazy loading et les opérations transactionnelles Le plugin kotlin-jpa génère automatiquement des constructeurs sans argument et rend les classes open, résolvant les problèmes de compatibilité Les data classes Kotlin ne sont pas adaptées aux entités JPA car elles génèrent equals/hashCode basés sur tous les champs, causant des problèmes avec les relations lazy L'utilisation de lateinit var pour les relations peut provoquer des exceptions si on accède aux propriétés avant leur initialisation par JPA Les types non-nullables Kotlin peuvent entrer en conflit avec le comportement de JPA qui initialise les entités avec des valeurs null temporaires Le backing field direct dans les getters/setters personnalisés peut contourner la logique de JPA et casser le lazy loading IntelliJ IDEA 2024.3 introduit des inspections pour détecter automatiquement ces problèmes et propose des quick-fixes L'IDE détecte les entités finales, les data classes inappropriées, les problèmes de constructeurs et l'usage incorrect de lateinit Ces nouvelles fonctionnalités aident les développeurs à éviter les bugs subtils liés à l'utilisation de JPA avec Kotlin Librairies Guide sur MapStruct @IterableMapping - https://www.baeldung.com/java-mapstruct-iterablemapping MapStruct est une bibliothèque Java pour générer automatiquement des mappers entre beans, l'annotation @IterableMapping permet de configurer finement le mapping de collections L'attribut dateFormat permet de formater automatiquement des dates lors du mapping de listes sans écrire de boucle manuelle L'attribut qualifiedByName permet de spécifier quelle méthode custom appliquer sur chaque élément de la collection à mapper Exemple d'usage : filtrer des données sensibles comme des mots de passe en mappant uniquement certains champs via une méthode dédiée L'attribut nullValueMappingStrategy permet de contrôler le comportement quand la collection source est null (retourner null ou une collection vide) L'annotation fonctionne pour tous types de collections Java (List, Set, etc.) et génère le code de boucle nécessaire Possibilité d'appliquer des formats numériques avec numberFormat pour convertir des nombres en chaînes avec un format spécifique MapStruct génère l'implémentation complète du mapper au moment de la compilation, éliminant le code boilerplate L'annotation peut être combinée avec @Named pour créer des méthodes de mapping réutilisables et nommées Le mapping des collections supporte les conversions de types complexes au-delà des simples conversions de types primitifs Accès aux fichiers Samba depuis Java avec JCIFS - https://www.baeldung.com/java-samba-jcifs JCIFS est une bibliothèque Java permettant d'accéder aux partages Samba/SMB sans monter de lecteur réseau, supportant le protocole SMB3 on pense aux galériens qui doivent se connecter aux systèmes dit legacy La configuration nécessite un contexte CIFS (CIFSContext) et des objets SmbFile pour représenter les ressources distantes L'authentification se fait via NtlmPasswordAuthenticator avec domaine, nom d'utilisateur et mot de passe La bibliothèque permet de lister les fichiers et dossiers avec listFiles() et vérifier leurs propriétés (taille, date de modification) Création de fichiers avec createNewFile() et de dossiers avec mkdir() ou mkdirs() pour créer toute une arborescence Suppression via delete() qui peut parcourir et supprimer récursivement des arborescences entières Copie de fichiers entre partages Samba avec copyTo(), mais impossibilité de copier depuis le système de fichiers local Pour copier depuis le système local, utilisation des streams SmbFileInputStream et SmbFileOutputStream Les opérations peuvent cibler différents serveurs Samba et différents partages (anonymes ou protégés par mot de passe) La bibliothèque s'intègre dans des blocs try-with-resources pour une gestion automatique des ressources Quarkus 3.31 - Support complet Java 25, nouveau packaging Maven et Panache Next - https://quarkus.io/blog/quarkus-3-31-released/ Support complet de Java 25 avec images runtime et native Nouveau packaging Maven de type quarkus avec lifecycle optimisé pour des builds plus rapides voici un article complet pour plus de detail https://quarkus.io/blog/building-large-applications/ Introduction de Panache Next, nouvelle génération avec meilleure expérience développeur et API unifiée ORM/Reactive Mise à jour vers Hibernate ORM 7.2, Reactive 3.2, Search 8.2 Support de Hibernate Spatial pour les données géospatiales Passage à Testcontainers 2 et JUnit 6 Annotations de sécurité supportées sur les repositories Jakarta Data Chiffrement des tokens OIDC pour les implémentations custom TokenStateManager Support OAuth 2.0 Pushed Authorization Requests dans l'extension OIDC Maven 3.9 maintenant requis minimum pour les projets Quarkus A2A Java SDK 1.0.0.Alpha1 - Alignement avec la spécification 1.0 du protocole Agent2Agent - https://quarkus.io/blog/a2a-java-sdk-1-0-0-alpha1/ Le SDK Java A2A implémente le protocole Agent2Agent qui permet la communication standardisée entre agents IA pour découvrir des capacités, déléguer des tâches et collaborer Passage à la version 1.0 de la spécification marque la transition d'expérimental à production-ready avec des changements cassants assumés Modernisation complète du module spec avec des Java records partout remplaçant le mix précédent de classes et records pour plus de cohérence Adoption de Protocol Buffers comme source de vérité avec des mappers MapStruct pour la conversion et Gson pour JSON-RPC Les builders utilisent maintenant des méthodes factory statiques au lieu de constructeurs publics suivant les best practices Java modernes Introduction de trois BOMs Maven pour simplifier la gestion des dépendances du SDK core, des extensions et des implémentations de référence Quarkus AgentCard évolue avec une liste supportedInterfaces remplaçant url et preferredTransport pour plus de flexibilité dans la déclaration des protocoles Support de la pagination ajouté pour ListTasks et les endpoints de configuration des notifications push avec des wrappers Result appropriés Interface A2AHttpClient pluggable permettant des implémentations HTTP personnalisées avec une implémentation Vert.x fournie Travail continu vers la conformité complète avec le TCK 1.0 en cours de développement parallèlement à la finalisation de la spécification Pourquoi Quarkus finit par "cliquer" : les 10 questions que se posent les développeurs Java - https://www.the-main-thread.com/p/quarkus-java-developers-top-questions-2025 un article qui revele et repond aux questions des gens qui ont utilisé Quarkus depuis 4-6 mois, les non noob questions Quarkus est un framework Java moderne optimisé pour le cloud qui propose des temps de démarrage ultra-rapides et une empreinte mémoire réduite Pourquoi Quarkus démarre si vite ? Le framework effectue le travail lourd au moment du build (scanning, indexation, génération de bytecode) plutôt qu'au runtime Quand utiliser le mode réactif plutôt qu'impératif ? Le réactif est pertinent pour les workloads avec haute concurrence et dominance I/O, l'impératif reste plus simple dans les autres cas Quelle est la différence entre Dev Services et Testcontainers ? Dev Services utilise Testcontainers en gérant automatiquement le cycle de vie, les ports et la configuration sans cérémonie Comment la DI de Quarkus diffère de Spring ? CDI est un standard basé sur la sécurité des types et la découverte au build-time, différent de l'approche framework de Spring Comment gérer la configuration entre environnements ? Quarkus permet de scaler depuis le développement local jusqu'à Kubernetes avec des profils, fichiers multiples et configuration externe Comment tester correctement les applications Quarkus ? @QuarkusTest démarre l'application une fois pour toute la suite de tests, changeant le modèle mental par rapport à Spring Boot Que fait vraiment Panache en coulisses ? Panache est du JPA avec des opinions fortes et des défauts propres, enveloppant Hibernate avec un style Active Record Doit-on utiliser les images natives et quand ? Les images natives brillent pour le serverless et l'edge grâce au démarrage rapide et la faible empreinte mémoire, mais tous les apps n'en bénéficient pas Comment Quarkus s'intègre avec Kubernetes ? Le framework génère automatiquement les ressources Kubernetes, gère les health checks et métriques comme s'il était nativement conçu pour cet écosystème Comment intégrer l'IA dans une application Quarkus ? LangChain4j permet d'ajouter embeddings, retrieval, guardrails et observabilité directement en Java sans passer par Python Infrastructure Les alternatives à MinIO https://rmoff.net/2026/01/14/alternatives-to-minio-for-single-node-local-s3/ MinIO a abandonné le support single-node fin 2025 pour des raisons commerciales, cassant de nombreuses démos et pipelines CI/CD qui l'utilisaient pour émuler S3 localement L'auteur cherche un remplacement simple avec image Docker, compatibilité S3, licence open source, déploiement mono-nœud facile et communauté active S3Proxy est très léger et facile à configurer, semble être l'option la plus simple mais repose sur un seul contributeur RustFS est facile à utiliser et inclut une GUI, mais c'est un projet très récent en version alpha avec une faille de sécurité majeure récente SeaweedFS existe depuis 2012 avec support S3 depuis 2018, relativement facile à configurer et dispose d'une interface web basique Zenko CloudServer remplace facilement MinIO mais la documentation et le branding (cloudserver/zenko/scality) peuvent prêter à confusion Garage nécessite une configuration complexe avec fichier TOML et conteneur d'initialisation séparé, pas un simple remplacement drop-in Apache Ozone requiert au minimum quatre nœuds pour fonctionner, beaucoup trop lourd pour un usage local simple L'auteur recommande SeaweedFS et S3Proxy comme remplaçants viables, RustFS en maybe, et élimine Garage et Ozone pour leur complexité Garage a une histoire tres associative, il vient du collectif https://deuxfleurs.fr/ qui offre un cloud distribué sans datacenter C'est certainement pas une bonne idée, les datacenters dans l'espace https://taranis.ie/datacenters-in-space-are-a-terrible-horrible-no-good-idea/ Avis d'expert (ex-NASA/Google, Dr en électronique spatiale) : Centres de données spatiaux, une "terrible" idée. Incompatibilité fondamentale : L'électronique (surtout IA/GPU) est inadaptée à l'environnement spatial. Énergie : Accès limité. Le solaire (type ISS) est insuffisant pour l'échelle de l'IA. Le nucléaire (RTG) est trop faible. Refroidissement : L'espace n'est pas "froid" ; absence de convection. Nécessite des radiateurs gigantesques (ex: 531m² pour 200kW). Radiations : Provoque erreurs (SEU, SEL) et dommages. Les GPU sont très vulnérables. Blindage lourd et inefficace. Les puces "durcies" sont très lentes. Communications : Bande passante très limitée (1Gbps radio vs 100Gbps terrestre). Le laser est tributaire des conditions atmosphériques. Conclusion : Projet extrêmement difficile, coûteux et aux performances médiocres. Data et Intelligence Artificielle Guillaume a développé un serveur MCP pour arXiv (le site de publication de papiers de recherche) en Java avec le framework Quarkus https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/01/18/implementing-an-arxiv-mcp-server-with-quarkus-in-java/ Implémentation d'un serveur MCP (Model Context Protocol) arXiv en Java avec Quarkus. Objectif : Accéder aux publications arXiv et illustrer les fonctionnalités moins connues du protocole MCP. Mise en œuvre : Utilisation du framework Quarkus (Java) et son support MCP étendu. Assistance par Antigravity (IDE agentique) pour le développement et l'intégration de l'API arXiv. Interaction avec l'API arXiv : requêtes HTTP, format XML Atom pour les résultats, parser XML Jackson. Fonctionnalités MCP exposées : Outils (@Tool) : Recherche de publications (search_papers). Ressources (@Resource, @ResourceTemplate) : Taxonomie des catégories arXiv, métadonnées des articles (via un template d'URI). Prompts (@Prompt) : Exemples pour résumer des articles ou construire des requêtes de recherche. Configuration : Le serveur peut fonctionner en STDIO (local) ou via HTTP Streamable (local ou distant), avec une configuration simple dans des clients comme Gemini CLI. Conclusion : Quarkus simplifie la création de serveurs MCP riches en fonctionnalités, rendant les données et services "prêts pour l'IA" avec l'aide d'outils d'IA comme Antigravity. Anthropic ne mettra pas de pub dans Claude https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-is-a-space-to-think c'est en reaction au plan non public d'OpenAi de mettre de la pub pour pousser les gens au mode payant OpenAI a besoin de cash et est probablement le plus utilisé pour gratuit au monde Anthropic annonce que Claude restera sans publicité pour préserver son rôle d'assistant conversationnel dédié au travail et à la réflexion approfondie. Les conversations avec Claude sont souvent sensibles, personnelles ou impliquent des tâches complexes d'ingénierie logicielle où les publicités seraient inappropriées. L'analyse des conversations montre qu'une part significative aborde des sujets délicats similaires à ceux évoqués avec un conseiller de confiance. Un modèle publicitaire créerait des incitations contradictoires avec le principe fondamental d'être "genuinely helpful" inscrit dans la Constitution de Claude. Les publicités introduiraient un conflit d'intérêt potentiel où les recommandations pourraient être influencées par des motivations commerciales plutôt que par l'intérêt de l'utilisateur. Le modèle économique d'Anthropic repose sur les contrats entreprise et les abonnements payants, permettant de réinvestir dans l'amélioration de Claude. Anthropic maintient l'accès gratuit avec des modèles de pointe et propose des tarifs réduits pour les ONG et l'éducation dans plus de 60 pays. Le commerce "agentique" sera supporté mais uniquement à l'initiative de l'utilisateur, jamais des annonceurs, pour préserver la confiance. Les intégrations tierces comme Figma, Asana ou Canva continueront d'être développées en gardant l'utilisateur aux commandes. Anthropic compare Claude à un cahier ou un tableau blanc : des espaces de pensée purs, sans publicité. Infinispan 16.1 est sorti https://infinispan.org/blog/2026/02/04/infinispan-16-1 déjà le nom de la release mérite une mention Le memory bounded par cache et par ensemble de cache s est pas facile à faire en Java Une nouvelle api OpenAPI AOT caché dans les images container Un serveur MCP local juste avec un fichier Java ? C'est possible avec LangChain4j et JBang https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/11/zero-boilerplate-java-stdio-mcp-servers-with-langchain4j-and-jbang/ Création rapide de serveurs MCP Java sans boilerplate. MCP (Model Context Protocol): standard pour connecter les LLM à des outils et données. Le tutoriel répond au manque d'options simples pour les développeurs Java, face à une prédominance de Python/TypeScript dans l'écosystème MCP. La solution utilise: LangChain4j: qui intègre un nouveau module serveur MCP pour le protocole STDIO. JBang: permet d'exécuter des fichiers Java comme des scripts, éliminant les fichiers de build (pom.xml, Gradle). Implémentation: se fait via un seul fichier .java. JBang gère automatiquement les dépendances (//DEPS). L'annotation @Tool de LangChain4j expose les méthodes Java aux LLM. StdioMcpServerTransport gère la communication JSON-RPC via l'entrée/sortie standard (STDIO). Point crucial: Les logs doivent impérativement être redirigés vers System.err pour éviter de corrompre System.out, qui est réservé à la communication MCP (messages JSON-RPC). Facilite l'intégration locale avec des outils comme Gemini CLI, Claude Code, etc. Reciprocal Rank Fusion : un algorithme utile et souvent utilisé pour faire de la recherche hybride, pour mélanger du RAG et des recherches par mots-clé https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/10/advanced-rag-understanding-reciprocal-rank-fusion-in-hybrid-search/ RAG : Qualité LLM dépend de la récupération. Recherche Hybride : Combiner vectoriel et mots-clés (BM25) est optimal. Défi : Fusionner des scores d'échelles différentes. Solution : Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF). RRF : Algorithme robuste qui fusionne des listes de résultats en se basant uniquement sur le rang des documents, ignorant les scores. Avantages RRF : Pas de normalisation de scores, scalable, excellente première étape de réorganisation. Architecture RAG fréquente : RRF (large sélection) + Cross-Encoder / modèle de reranking (précision fine). RAG-Fusion : Utilise un LLM pour générer plusieurs variantes de requête, puis RRF agrège tous les résultats pour renforcer le consensus et réduire les hallucinations. Implémentation : LangChain4j utilise RRF par défaut pour agréger les résultats de plusieurs retrievers. Les dernières fonctionnalités de Gemini et Nano Banana supportées dans LangChain4j https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/06/latest-gemini-and-nano-banana-enhancements-in-langchain4j/ Nouveaux modèles d'images Nano Banana (Gemini 2.5/3.0) pour génération et édition (jusqu'à 4K). "Grounding" via Google Search (pour images et texte) et Google Maps (localisation, Gemini 2.5). Outil de contexte URL (Gemini 3.0) pour lecture directe de pages web. Agents multimodaux (AiServices) capables de générer des images. Configuration de la réflexion (profondeur Chain-of-Thought) pour Gemini 3.0. Métadonnées enrichies : usage des tokens et détails des sources de "grounding". Comment configurer Gemini CLI comment agent de code dans IntelliJ grâce au protocole ACP https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/01/how-to-integrate-gemini-cli-with-intellij-idea-using-acp/ But : Intégrer Gemini CLI à IntelliJ IDEA via l'Agent Client Protocol (ACP). Prérequis : IntelliJ IDEA 2025.3+, Node.js (v20+), Gemini CLI. Étapes : Installer Gemini CLI (npm install -g @google/gemini-cli). Localiser l'exécutable gemini. Configurer ~/.jetbrains/acp.json (chemin exécutable, --experimental-acp, use_idea_mcp: true). Redémarrer IDEA, sélectionner "Gemini CLI" dans l'Assistant IA. Usage : Gemini interagit avec le code et exécute des commandes (contexte projet). Important : S'assurer du flag --experimental-acp dans la configuration. Outillage PipeNet, une alternative (open source aussi) à LocalTunnel, mais un plus évoluée https://pipenet.dev/ pipenet: Alternative open-source et moderne à localtunnel (client + serveur). Usages: Développement local (partage, webhooks), intégration SDK, auto-hébergement sécurisé. Fonctionnalités: Client (expose ports locaux, sous-domaines), Serveur (déploiement, domaines personnalisés, optimisé cloud mono-port). Avantages vs localtunnel: Déploiement cloud sur un seul port, support multi-domaines, TypeScript/ESM, maintenance active. Protocoles: HTTP/S, WebSocket, SSE, HTTP Streaming. Intégration: CLI ou SDK JavaScript. JSON-IO — une librairie comme Jackson ou GSON, supportant JSON5, TOON, et qui pourrait être utile pour l'utilisation du "structured output" des LLMs quand ils ne produisent pas du JSON parfait https://github.com/jdereg/json-io json-io : Librairie Java pour la sérialisation et désérialisation JSON/TOON. Gère les graphes d'objets complexes, les références cycliques et les types polymorphes. Support complet JSON5 (lecture et écriture), y compris des fonctionnalités non prises en charge par Jackson/Gson. Format TOON : Notation orientée token, optimisée pour les LLM, réduisant l'utilisation de tokens de 40 à 50% par rapport au JSON. Légère : Aucune dépendance externe (sauf java-util), taille de JAR réduite (~330K). Compatible JDK 1.8 à 24, ainsi qu'avec les environnements JPMS et OSGi. Deux modes de conversion : vers des objets Java typés (toJava()) ou vers des Map (toMaps()). Options de configuration étendues via ReadOptionsBuilder et WriteOptionsBuilder. Optimisée pour les déploiements cloud natifs et les architectures de microservices. Utiliser mailpit et testcontainer pour tester vos envois d'emails https://foojay.io/today/testing-emails-with-testcontainers-and-mailpit/ l'article montre via SpringBoot et sans. Et voici l'extension Quarkus https://quarkus.io/extensions/io.quarkiverse.mailpit/quarkus-mailpit/?tab=docs Tester l'envoi d'emails en développement est complexe car on ne peut pas utiliser de vrais serveurs SMTP Mailpit est un serveur SMTP de test qui capture les emails et propose une interface web pour les consulter Testcontainers permet de démarrer Mailpit dans un conteneur Docker pour les tests d'intégration L'article montre comment configurer une application SpringBoot pour envoyer des emails via JavaMail Un module Testcontainers dédié à Mailpit facilite son intégration dans les tests Le conteneur Mailpit expose un port SMTP (1025) et une API HTTP (8025) pour vérifier les emails reçus Les tests peuvent interroger l'API HTTP de Mailpit pour valider le contenu des emails envoyés Cette approche évite d'utiliser des mocks et teste réellement l'envoi d'emails Mailpit peut aussi servir en développement local pour visualiser les emails sans les envoyer réellement La solution fonctionne avec n'importe quel framework Java supportant JavaMail Architecture Comment scaler un système de 0 à 10 millions d'utilisateurs https://blog.algomaster.io/p/scaling-a-system-from-0-to-10-million-users Philosophie : Scalabilité incrémentale, résoudre les goulots d'étranglement sans sur-ingénierie. 0-100 utilisateurs : Serveur unique (app, DB, jobs). 100-1K : Séparer app et DB (services gérés, pooling). 1K-10K : Équilibreur de charge, multi-serveurs d'app (stateless via sessions partagées). 10K-100K : Caching, réplicas de lecture DB, CDN (réduire charge DB). 100K-500K : Auto-scaling, applications stateless (authentification JWT). 500K-10M : Sharding DB, microservices, files de messages (traitement asynchrone). 10M+ : Déploiement multi-régions, CQRS, persistance polyglotte, infra personnalisée. Principes clés : Simplicité, mesure, stateless essentiel, cache/asynchrone, sharding prudent, compromis (CAP), coût de la complexité. Patterns d'Architecture 2026 - Du Hype à la Réalité du Terrain (Part 1/2) - https://blog.ippon.fr/2026/01/30/patterns-darchitecture-2026-part-1/ L'article présente quatre patterns d'architecture logicielle pour répondre aux enjeux de scalabilité, résilience et agilité business dans les systèmes modernes Il présentent leurs raisons et leurs pièges Un bon rappel L'Event-Driven Architecture permet une communication asynchrone entre systèmes via des événements publiés et consommés, évitant le couplage direct Les bénéfices de l'EDA incluent la scalabilité indépendante des composants, la résilience face aux pannes et l'ajout facile de nouveaux cas d'usage Le pattern API-First associé à un API Gateway centralise la sécurité, le routage et l'observabilité des APIs avec un catalogue unifié Le Backend for Frontend crée des APIs spécifiques par canal (mobile, web, partenaires) pour optimiser l'expérience utilisateur CQRS sépare les modèles de lecture et d'écriture avec des bases optimisées distinctes, tandis que l'Event Sourcing stocke tous les événements plutôt que l'état actuel Le Saga Pattern gère les transactions distribuées via orchestration centralisée ou chorégraphie événementielle pour coordonner plusieurs microservices Les pièges courants incluent l'explosion d'événements granulaires, la complexité du debugging distribué, et la mauvaise gestion de la cohérence finale Les technologies phares sont Kafka pour l'event streaming, Kong pour l'API Gateway, EventStoreDB pour l'Event Sourcing et Temporal pour les Sagas Ces patterns nécessitent une maturité technique et ne sont pas adaptés aux applications CRUD simples ou aux équipes junior Patterns d'architecture 2026 : du hype à la réalité terrain part. 2 - https://blog.ippon.fr/2026/02/04/patterns-darchitecture-2026-part-2/ Deuxième partie d'un guide pratique sur les patterns d'architecture logicielle et système éprouvés pour moderniser et structurer les applications en 2026 Strangler Fig permet de migrer progressivement un système legacy en l'enveloppant petit à petit plutôt que de tout réécrire d'un coup (70% d'échec pour les big bang) Anti-Corruption Layer protège votre nouveau domaine métier des modèles externes et legacy en créant une couche de traduction entre les systèmes Service Mesh gère automatiquement la communication inter-services dans les architectures microservices (sécurité mTLS, observabilité, résilience) Architecture Hexagonale sépare le coeur métier des détails techniques via des ports et adaptateurs pour améliorer la testabilité et l'évolutivité Chaque pattern est illustré par un cas client concret avec résultats mesurables et liste des pièges à éviter lors de l'implémentation Les technologies 2026 mentionnées incluent Istio, Linkerd pour service mesh, LaunchDarkly pour feature flags, NGINX et Kong pour API gateway Tableau comparatif final aide à choisir le bon pattern selon la complexité, le scope et le use case spécifique du projet L'article insiste sur une approche pragmatique : ne pas utiliser un pattern juste parce qu'il est moderne mais parce qu'il résout un problème réel Pour les systèmes simples type CRUD ou avec peu de services, ces patterns peuvent introduire une complexité inutile qu'il faut savoir éviter Méthodologies Le rêve récurrent de remplacer voire supprimer les développeurs https://www.caimito.net/en/blog/2025/12/07/the-recurring-dream-of-replacing-developers.html Depuis 1969, chaque décennie voit une tentative de réduire le besoin de développeurs (de COBOL, UML, visual builders… à IA). Motivation : frustration des dirigeants face aux délais et coûts de développement. La complexité logicielle est intrinsèque et intellectuelle, non pas une question d'outils. Chaque vague technologique apporte de la valeur mais ne supprime pas l'expertise humaine. L'IA assiste les développeurs, améliore l'efficacité, mais ne remplace ni le jugement ni la gestion de la complexité. La demande de logiciels excède l'offre car la contrainte majeure est la réflexion nécessaire pour gérer cette complexité. Pour les dirigeants : les outils rendent-ils nos développeurs plus efficaces sur les problèmes complexes et réduisent-ils les tâches répétitives ? Le "rêve" de remplacer les développeurs, irréalisable, est un moteur d'innovation créant des outils précieux. Comment creuser des sujets à l'ère de l'IA générative. Quid du partage et la curation de ces recherches ? https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/04/researching-topics-in-the-age-of-ai-rock-solid-webhooks-case-study/ Recherche initiale de l'auteur sur les webhooks en 2019, processus long et manuel. L'IA (Deep Research, Gemini, NotebookLM) facilite désormais la recherche approfondie, l'exploration de sujets et le partage des résultats. L'IA a identifié et validé des pratiques clés pour des déploiements de webhooks résilients, en grande partie les mêmes que celles trouvées précédemment par l'auteur. Génération d'artefacts par l'IA : rapport détaillé, résumé concis, illustration sketchnote, et même une présentation (slide deck). Guillaume s'interroge sur le partage public de ces rapports de recherche générés par l'IA, tout en souhaitant éviter le "AI Slop". Loi, société et organisation Le logiciel menacé par le vibe coding https://www.techbuzz.ai/articles/we-built-a-monday-com-clone-in-under-an-hour-with-ai Deux journalistes de CNBC sans expérience de code ont créé un clone fonctionnel de Monday.com en moins de 60 minutes pour 5 à 15 dollars. L'expérience valide les craintes des investisseurs qui ont provoqué une baisse de 30% des actions des entreprises SaaS. L'IA a non seulement reproduit les fonctionnalités de base mais a aussi recherché Monday.com de manière autonome pour identifier et recréer ses fonctionnalités clés. Cette technique appelée "vibe-coding" permet aux non-développeurs de construire des applications via des instructions en anglais courant. Les entreprises les plus vulnérables sont celles offrant des outils "qui se posent sur le travail" comme Atlassian, Adobe, HubSpot, Zendesk et Smartsheet. Les entreprises de cybersécurité comme CrowdStrike et Palo Alto sont considérées plus protégées grâce aux effets de réseau et aux barrières réglementaires. Les systèmes d'enregistrement comme Salesforce restent plus difficiles à répliquer en raison de leur profondeur d'intégration et de données d'entreprise. Le coût de 5 à 15 dollars par construction permet aux entreprises de prototyper plusieurs solutions personnalisées pour moins cher qu'une seule licence Monday.com. L'expérience soulève des questions sur la pérennité du marché de 5 milliards de dollars des outils de gestion de projet face à l'IA générative.

Jackie and MJ are BACK and joined by the nerd that's NOT LIKE THE OTHER NERDS, Jake Young, to goss' 'bout flashin' back to them early days of internet memes and whatnot, plus a recent Adobe blunder with Adobe Edge, Jackie watched the Olympics because she was trapped in the bed with a norovirus haaaaze! There's controversy around the Serena Williams GLP-1 ad as well as Mike Tyson's "I was a big gross fatty" ad, Bad Bunny did AMAZING, but there was faaaaar too much AI slop in the ads! The Olympics are experiencing a PENIS GATE involving acid injections (and not the fun kind), plus the first legal back flip on ice in 28 years, and MJ will be going with their mother to see "Dancing with the Stars" Live for their 40th! In the afterglow of his Super Bowl, which revealed the cereal eating while driving was STAGED, William Shatner said he was relentlessly bullied for his name. Then it's a LIST of CURSED behind the scenes stories of movies that were WAAAAAAAAAAY more chilling than what actually made it to the THEATRE! Then we got some SUPER BOWL THEMED BLINDZ! Lastly, we got a very scrotal lookin' Valentines Jackie's Snackie's starts at 1:11:00.790, with a SWEET TREAT MJ's Minute Munchies starting at 1:17:26.046 AND A THEME SONGED Jakie's Slakie's starting at 1:20:52.740, going til 1:27:50.198!Want even more Page 7?

Great creative does not fail because of ideas. It fails because of operations.In this episode of the OnBase podcast, Chris Moody sits down with Michael Miller, founder and head of creative at Consigliere, to explore why modern CMOs must think like architects of complex marketing systems. They unpack the hidden operational bottlenecks that sabotage performance, why agencies often get blamed unfairly, and how outdated marketing models are slowing teams down.Michael also shares a pragmatic view on AI: use it to buy back time, streamline process, and visualize ideas, not to replace creativity. If you are leading marketing in a performance-driven environment and trying to protect brand and creative quality, this episode offers a blueprint for doing both.About Michael MillerMichael Miller has built an impressive track record over his 20+ year career, developing award winning creative and digital experiences for some of the world's top companies including Delta Airlines, Jeep, Citi, Adobe, Southwest Airlines, Apple, Lucasfilm, AT&T, Nike and Etihad Airways.Prior to founding Consiglieri, Miller was the Vice President of Marketing at T-Mobile where he founded their internal agency & TMO studios, and led the modernization of the brand's marketing, creative and digital operation. Miller also architected T-Mobile's industry leading social organization.Miller was the SVP Executive Creative Director at Publicis | Razorfish for 12 years prior, leading global, digital transformation for some of the largest brands in the world.Connect with Michael.

Do you remember the early days of your career? You likely spent hours coding late into the night, fueled not by a paycheck, but by the sheer joy of building. But somewhere along the way, that intrinsic fire faded, replaced by the extrinsic motivators of Jira tickets, performance reviews, and ultimately the almighty dollar.In this episode of the Career Growth Accelerator, I explore why this shift happens and how it might be the very thing keeping you stuck. We discuss the "Overjustification Effect"—how getting paid for your passion can actually degrade your performance—and how to reclaim the autotelic personality required to enter a flow state and accelerate your career.• The Overjustification Effect: Learn why introducing extrinsic rewards (like a salary) for a task you inherently enjoy can weaken or completely replace your intrinsic motivation, eventually making the work feel like a chore.• The Loss of Flow: Discover how moving from hobbyist to professional changes your relationship with the work, often stripping away the conditions necessary for "flow state," such as risk-taking and immediate feedback.• Autotelic Personality: Understand the concept of being "autotelic"—doing something for its own sake—and why this trait is critical for high-quality, creative work that pushes your career forward.• The Stagnation Trap: Recognize that if your only motivation is doing what is required to get paid, you are unlikely to take on the voluntary challenges necessary to grow to the next level.• Reclaiming Your Drive: I discuss how finding pockets of intrinsic motivation—even if they are ancillary to your main job—can reignite your ability to enter flow, improve your work quality, and break through career plateaus.

Today on the podcast, I am welcoming back my good pal and friend of the show Andy Lambert, who was actually one of my very first guests back on episode 43! Since then, the social media landscape has changed dramatically, and Andy has gone from co-founding ContentCal to becoming a Senior Product Marketing Manager at Adobe. In this episode, Andy gives us a veritable masterclass on LinkedIn, explaining why it is currently the single best platform to find your audience. We dive into the concept of "Social First" marketing, why personal profiles are outperforming company pages, and the data-backed reasons why consistency wins over viral hacks. If you have been struggling to make sense of LinkedIn or want to know where to focus your energy in 2026, this episode is absolute gold.   Key Takeaways: The "Social First" Approach: Marketing has shifted; social media teams are now the closest to the customer and should be leading the wider marketing strategy, rather than just being a distribution channel at the end of the process. The 95-5 Rule: Research from the B2B Institute shows that 95% of your potential buyers are not in the market to buy right now. Your marketing job is not just to convert the 5%, but to build memory structures with the 95% so they think of you when they are ready. LinkedIn is the place to be: Andy wagers that LinkedIn is currently the best platform for organic reach and precise audience targeting, especially for B2B and service-based businesses. Zero-Click Content: Social platforms no longer want you to link out to your website. The best performing content (like PDF carousels on LinkedIn) keeps people on the platform and increases "dwell time." Employee Advocacy is vital: People trust people more than brands. The most effective way to grow a company's reach is through the personal profiles of its founders and employees, not just the brand page.   Episode Highlights: 02:15 – Andy shares his journey from founding ContentCal to its acquisition by Adobe and his current role. 06:50 – What "Social 3.0" means and why social media needs to move from the "kids' table" to the boardroom. 12:44 – The "95-5 Rule": Why most marketing fails because it ignores the 95% of people who aren't ready to buy yet. 18:41 – A LinkedIn Masterclass: Andy breaks down exactly why LinkedIn is working so well right now. 26:24 – Understanding "Zero-Click Content" and why PDF carousels are generating huge reach. 36:12 – The importance of video and how to repurpose podcast clips for LinkedIn and YouTube Shorts.   About The Guest: Andy Lambert is the Senior Product Marketing Manager at Adobe and a founding member of ContentCal, a social media marketing software that was acquired by Adobe. He is also the author of the book Social 3.0, which explores the future of social media marketing. With over a decade of experience in the industry, Andy is passionate about helping businesses understand the power of a social-first strategy. You can find Andy on LinkedIn (it's the best place to get a response!) or check out his book on Amazon. Mentioned in this episode: Social 3.0: Andy's book on the evolution of social media.

Founders often delay leadership coaching until a major crisis hits, leading to significant costs in productivity, team churn, and poor decisions. In this episode, James Birchler (Technical Advisor & Executive Leadership Coach) argues that early coaching is a game-changer for a startup's success. We explore the hidden costs of waiting and the benefits of intentionally installing leadership and communication systems before you scale. James shares specific self-awareness mechanisms, like advisory groups and feedback loops, to help founders design their day and create accountability. You'll also learn practical strategies like the "5-Minute Alignment Loop" for spotting communication breakdowns & for reinforcing clarity. Plus insights on how to "install your leadership OS" so it can scale with your company. ABOUT JAMES BIRCHLERJames Birchler is an executive leadership coach and technical advisor who specializes in helping engineering leaders and founders develop greater self-awareness and build high-performing teams. He combines deep technical expertise with practical leadership development, making him particularly valuable for technical leaders scaling their organizations.As both a founder and engineering leader, James has more than 20 years of experience leading teams at companies ranging from early-stage startups to Amazon, where his current role is Technical Advisor to the VP of Amazon Delivery Routing and Planning. Most recently, he founded NICER, a premium natural personal care company, and Actuate Partners, his executive coaching and technical advisory practice. He also held VP of Engineering roles at companies including Caffeine (backed by Greylock and Andreessen Horowitz), SmugMug (where his team acquired Flickr), and IMVU.At IMVU, James implemented the Lean Startup methodologies alongside Eric Ries, author of The Lean Startup and creator of the methodology, literally the first company to apply these principles. His team helped pioneer the DevOps movement by building infrastructure to ship code to production 50 times per day and coining the term "continuous deployment." This experience in systematic experimentation and continuous improvement now informs his coaching approach through frameworks like CAMS (Coaching, Advising, Mentoring, Supporting) and the Think-Do-Learn Loop.James completed his executive coaching certification at UC Berkeley Haas School of Business Executive Coaching Institute. His coaching practice focuses on self-awareness, integrity, accountability, and fostering growth mindsets that support continuous learning and high performance. He writes the Continuous Growth newsletter and offers both individual executive coaching and peer learning circles for technical leaders.Through his advisory work with growth-stage startups in the US and Europe, James helps leaders navigate common scaling challenges including hiring and interviewing, implementing development methodologies, establishing operational cadences, and developing other leaders. His approach treats leadership development like product development—with systematic feedback loops, measurable outcomes, and continuous improvement.You can find James at jamesbirchler.com, LinkedIn, and Substack. This episode is brought to you by Retool!What happens when your team can't keep up with internal tool requests?

Online safety in the age of AI w/Fuzzy Technoogies CEO Kalie NitzscheFuzzy Technologies CEO Kalie Nitzsche is an online safety advocate, and former Adobe tech sales leader, whose founder story began by necessity after falling victim to a dating app dupester.    As an MBA who went to college on a soccer scholarship, her track record is one of bringing passion, grit and smarts to all her endeavors.   But despite having savvy in spades, it wasn't enough to protect her when she unwittingly swiped right on the wrong profile.  After discovering the deception in the most dramatic of ways and crying all the tears, Kalie realized she was not alone in suffering at the hands of bad players who falsely represent themselves online and that it was time to make Lemon Drop martinis from the lemons life had served her. After doing research and being unable to find an easy-to-use, affordable consumer online identity check app, Kalie made her heartbreak actionable and the idea for Fuzzy Digital Gutcheck was born.  Links:https://www.fuzzywatchdog.com/https://www.instagram.com/kalienitzsche/Tags:AI Ethics,Celebrity,Female Entrepreneur,Inspiring,Online Dating,Safety,Single Mom,Startup,Startup Fundraising,Tech Entrepreneur,Phantom Electric Ghost Podcast,PodcastSupport PEG by checking out our Sponsors:Download and use Newsly for free now from www.newsly.me or from the link in the description, and use promo code “GHOST” and receive a 1-month free premium subscription.The best tool for getting podcast guests:https://podmatch.com/signup/phantomelectricghostSubscribe to our Instagram for exclusive content:https://www.instagram.com/expansive_sound_experiments/Subscribe to our YouTube https://youtube.com/@phantomelectricghost?si=rEyT56WQvDsAoRprRSShttps://anchor.fm/s/3b31908/podcast/rssSubstackhttps://substack.com/@phantomelectricghost?utm_source=edit-profile-page

"I didn't use my own software this week because the OpenAI agents were better. And that's me retiring my own software." — Keith TeareSomething broke this week. Both Anthropic and OpenAI launched multi-agent systems—"agent swarms"—that don't just assist with tasks but replace custom-built software entirely. The market noticed: Adobe, Salesforce, Workday, and other legacy SaaS companies saw their stocks collapse in what some are calling a trillion-dollar selloff. Keith Teare joins Andrew Keen on Super Bowl weekend to unpack what may be the most consequential week in AI since ChatGPT launched.The conversation ranges from the Anthropic-OpenAI advertising spat (Dario Amodei's Super Bowl ad vs. Sam Altman's "online tantrum") to the deeper structural shifts: Microsoft and Amazon becoming utilities, Google betting $185 billion on an AI-first pivot, and Elon Musk merging SpaceX with xAI to put data centers in space. Along the way, Teare and Keen debate whether the AI race is a myth or a wacky race, whether venture capital is in crisis, and what happens to human labor when agents do the work.About the GuestKeith Teare is a British-American entrepreneur, investor, and technology analyst. He co-founded RealNames Corporation, a pioneering internet company, and later served as Executive Chairman of TechCrunch. He is the founder of That Was The Week and SignalRank, and publishes a widely-read weekly newsletter on technology, venture capital, and the business of innovation.

The tech sector faced dramatic volatility this week as AI developments triggered major selloffs across software and hyperscaler stocks. While Oracle dropped 16% in eight trading days and software companies lost over 22% year-to-date, a different story emerged for dividend-focused retirement portfolios built around quality companies. AI Disruption Triggers Tech Sector Turmoil The market experienced significant turbulence when Anthropic released new AI capabilities that simplified software replication for programmers. This development sent shockwaves through major tech companies including PayPal, Adobe, and Microsoft. As Mike Johnson explained, “The software sector just got their heads knocked off…year to date now it’s down 22%.” Amazon stock declined 7-8% after announcing $200 billion in capital expenditure plans. Combined with Microsoft, Meta, Oracle, and Alphabet, these hyperscalers plan to spend $600 billion—more than Germany and Mexico’s spending budgets combined. Markets that celebrated Oracle’s $300 billion open AI investment with a 40% single-day stock jump last summer now react with skepticism to similar announcements. The Market’s Contradictory Signals on Tech Investment Tom Dupree observed this fundamental shift: “Back in June or July when Oracle said they were gonna invest 300 billion in open AI and the stock went up 40% in a day…now when all these hyperscalers are announcing these huge investments, the market’s like, Nope, sorry, we gotta see proof.” This creates opportunities in “picks and shovels” companies that supply infrastructure for AI development. James Dupree noted the disconnect: “It’s bonkers that they’re selling off those names. When these companies announced that they’re gonna invest more money, that’s obviously good for the picks and shovels.” Quality Dividend Stocks Deliver Steady Returns While tech volatility dominated headlines, personalized investment management portfolios focused on dividend-paying quality companies produced different results: Verizon: Up 17% year-to-date from total returns, jumping nearly 12% in a single Friday session Chevron: Similar 17% gains demonstrating energy sector strength ConAgra: 8% total return combining 4-5% price appreciation plus dividend income since late October purchase Nestlé: Strong food sector performance during market uncertainty Mike Johnson emphasized the strategy’s foundation: “In a risk-off market…what the market’s looking for is quality. Balance sheet quality, cash flow quality, lower leverage, more predictability in revenues.” Why Separately Managed Accounts Outperform Packaged Products Tom Dupree explained their portfolio construction philosophy: “The way we put that philosophy together was we didn’t wanna sell annuities and we didn’t wanna buy bonds, so we bought stocks that paid dividends like a bond and raise their dividends over time.” This approach offers critical advantages over mutual funds and other packaged products. During the 2008 financial crisis, some closed-end funds with embedded leverage faced conflicts of interest. As Mike Johnson noted, “If portfolio managers sold everything in the portfolio before things got really bad, that means the portfolio manager’s out of a job…inevitably you have those conflicts of interest within package products that raise their head at the worst possible time.” Separately managed accounts provide: Direct ownership of individual securities Complete transparency on holdings and fees Dynamic portfolio management without commingling with other investors No embedded conflicts of interest Lower overall costs without packaging fees Learn more about the investment philosophy behind this approach. Income-Focused Investing for Retirement Security The cornerstone of retirement portfolio management centers on reliable income generation. Mike Johnson described the strategy: “The price appreciation, everybody’s happy when prices are going up. But the cornerstone of our portfolio is the income.” This philosophy differs fundamentally from buying dividend aristocrat indexes. Mike explained: “There’s a difference between the analysis and the holdings that we have in the portfolio versus buying the dividend aristocrats…What that doesn’t take into account is current valuation.” Attractive valuations on overlooked companies like Verizon and Chevron created opportunities for both income and price appreciation. “For retirement investors, you find the safety net, if you will, of the income, and then the price appreciation over time,” Mike noted. Dynamic Portfolio Management Adapts to Market Conditions Active management allows response to changing market conditions. When quality company stock prices decline 20% without fundamental business changes, the portfolio team may add to positions. Tom Dupree clarified: “We own it for a long time, but it’s not just a buy and hold situation…the dynamic nature of the portfolio has to square up with the dynamic nature of retirement.” This includes tax-efficient strategies like: Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs): Transfer IRA funds directly to charities without reporting as taxable income Roth Conversions: Situational strategies for specific client circumstances Strategic Rebalancing: Taking profits on winners and adding to undervalued positions Explore more insights in the market commentary archive. Key Takeaways for Retirement Investors Software sector vulnerabilities exposed by AI developments demonstrate tech concentration risks Quality dividend-paying companies provide downside protection during market volatility Separately managed accounts offer transparency and control unavailable in packaged products Income generation creates stability regardless of price fluctuations Dynamic management adapts portfolios to both market conditions and retirement needs Current valuations matter more than historical dividend aristocrat status Questions About Your Retirement Portfolio? Tom Dupree summarized the value proposition: “The thing about investing that’s so hard is obviously the emotions. You see a stock going up that you already own a little bit of, and you’re like, I should add to this, which is the worst thing you can do while it’s going up. And then you see a stock going down that you own and you’re like, well, I should probably sell this stock.” Professional portfolio management removes emotional decision-making while maintaining the transparency and control investors need for retirement security. If you don’t know what you own in your portfolio, you need to. Schedule a complimentary portfolio analysis with Dupree Financial Group.

Frequently Asked Questions Q: How does dividend investing protect against tech sector volatility? Dividend-paying quality companies in defensive sectors like telecommunications, energy, and consumer staples provide consistent income regardless of tech stock fluctuations. Companies like Verizon and Chevron demonstrated 17% year-to-date returns while software stocks declined 22%. Q: What’s the difference between separately managed accounts and mutual funds? Separately managed accounts provide direct ownership of individual securities in your own brokerage account with complete transparency on holdings and fees. Mutual funds commingle investor assets and may contain embedded conflicts of interest that surface during market stress. Q: How do portfolio managers decide when to add to existing positions? When quality company stock prices decline 20% without fundamental business changes, the investment committee may add to positions. Valuations matter more than simply holding dividend aristocrats regardless of price. Q: Can I transfer retirement funds to charity without paying taxes? Yes, Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) allow direct IRA transfers to charities without reporting as taxable income. Age and annual amount restrictions apply—discuss your specific situation during a portfolio consultation. Q: Why are “picks and shovels” AI companies attractive despite hyperscaler selloffs? Infrastructure providers benefit when tech companies announce increased capital expenditure plans. Despite market selloffs, $600 billion in planned AI infrastructure spending creates revenue opportunities for equipment and component suppliers.

Ep 54 - Paranormal explorations of Drugs and Demonic Influence, Negative Near Death Experiences (NDEs), & the megalithic underground structure at Khara Khora.Welcome to episode 54 of The Paranormal Rundown! We have a small crew this time, just Vic, David, and Randy, but we have some wide ranging discussion! We consider the possibility of drugs and alcohol creating a vulnerability to Demonic Influence, Negative Near Death Experiences, AI and the components of Consciousness, and finish with a trip to Khara Khora, an ancient underground structure made with massive megalithic stones. Along the way we explore Evidence of an Afterlife, Purgatory and Limbo, Reincarnation and the Veil of Forgetfulness, Exploding Head Syndrome, the Animist View of Spirits of Objects, the Brain as a Receiver of Consciousness, the discoveries below the Giza Plateau, and much more. We even take on a detailed analysis of the voices Vic hears in his head at bedtime!We also would like to apologize for the delay getting the episode out this week. Vic was going to try to make this our first video episode, but alas, Adobe had other ideas. Needless to say, we have been besieged by a series of technical gremlins! We promise to do our very best to make it up to you next episode, where we will have return guest Sylvia Shults, what a treat!The poll on Spotify this week is about how many topics you think should Vic bring up when he spins the wheel. Right now we do 6, but David has a horrible memory and is trying to get it reduced to 4. So please, either go to the episode on Spotify and vote for your preference: 4, 5, or 6 topics per turn, or just email us your thoughts at feedback@paranormalrundown.comWe are await your decision!The Paranormal Rundown is a partnership between the hosts David Griffith, Father Michael Birdsong, Randy Cantrell, and Vic Hermanson.Be sure to check out our partner podcasts:You can find Vic at Trailer Trash Terrors, https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/vic-hermansonYou can find Father Birdsong at https://www.becomingahouseofprayer.com, as well as hear his new podcast Ending the Curse at:https://open.spotify.com/show/5yL7ZAN4wcRKnMPAlalVXW

That was fast. Hours after Adobe announced it was ending Animate (used on shows like Smiling Friends) and gave a firm deadline for end of life, the community manager for Adobe posted on Reddit that whoopsy doopsy they should've phrased it better. Adobe Animate is still effectively dead and they're no longer supporting it, but now you get to pay a subscription fee indefinitely to access the deprecated software. Isn't that a bargain?Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.CLOWNFISH TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary podcast that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer's point of view.

In the episode of Redefining AI, host Lauren Hawker Zafer speaks with Sangeet Paul Choudary, the bestselling author of Platform Revolution and the 2025 Thinkers50 Strategy Award winner for his latest book, Reshuffle.Sangeet argues that we are currently repeating the early mistakes of the Cloud era, viewing AI through the narrow lens of productivity and intelligence benchmarks (like GPT-5) rather than the structural reorganization of work itself. Lauren and Sangeet dive deep into why the next 18 months will bring a massive "narrative correction" as organizations move from asking what AI is to what it does to their capital allocation and organizational architecture.In this episode, you will learn: The Intelligence Trap: Why focusing on brute-force AI performance is a distraction from true system restructuring.The Workforce Split: How to lead through the divide of "Blind Believers" and "Blind Rejectors."The Reshuffle Framework: Why AI is the "missing glue" for complex systems and how to redistribute work now that knowledge is no longer scarce.AI-Native vs. AI-Adopter: How to tell if a company is truly transforming or just "tacking on" tools (The Adobe vs. Figma distinction).Sangeet Paul Choudary breaks down the fundamental shift from AI-adopting to AI-native, and unpacks the most relevant issue in 2026:In an AI-adopting company, the person is the "node" and AI is the tool. In an AI-native company, the system is the node, and work is redistributed based on where intelligence (human or artificial) is most effective.Here is a sharp, condensed way to state that principle:The true shift isn't about augmenting individuals; it's about rethinking the architecture of the organization itself. If you assume work must still be organized around individual silos, you aren't being AI-native. Real transformation happens when you stop asking how AI helps the person and start asking how work should be redistributed and restructured now that intelligence is a decentralized utility.00:00 –  Sangeet Paul Choudary, author of Reshuffle, 2025 Thinkers50 Strategy Award winner 01:30 – The Problem with the "Intelligence-First" AI Narrative02:50 – Beyond Intelligence: How AI Restructures Organizations04:00 – The Winners and Losers of the AI Value Pie05:10 – Moving from Task-Level AI to System-Level Assumptions06:20 – Lessons from the Cloud: Why History Rhymes with AI08:00 – Adobe vs. Figma: A Case Study in Native Architecture09:40 – Reimagining Returns: Breaking the Productivity Optimization Loop11:15 – 2025 Prediction: The Tension, Transition, and Transformation Phases12:50 – Avoiding the Split: Blind Believers vs. Blind Rejectors14:10 – The 18-Month Narrative Correction: From GPT-5 Hype to ROI Reality15:30 – How to Spot a Genuinely AI-Native Company17:00 – Rethinking Organizational Design: Distributed vs. Individual Work18:40 – Why AI is a Strategy and Capital Allocation Decision (Not IT)19:50 – Closing: Aligning Sales and Leadership with the New AI Architecture 

Today on the 5: Adobe announced the cancellation of Animate, a popular animation tool many creators depend on. After getting a severe amount of negative response, they almost immediately reversed most of that decision. The problem is, the most significant impact of that blunder can't be undone.

“To keep kids away until they're ready, I think that is the monumental circuit breaker move that we need to move to.”Katy Watson speaks to Julie Inman Grant, Australia's eSafety Commissioner about the country's social media ban for under 16s.Brought up in Seattle, North America Julie has spent her career in the technology sector working for Microsoft, Twitter and Adobe in public policy and safety before moving into government. She moved to Australia more than 25 years ago and from 2017 Julie has been working on online safety. In her role as commissioner she's become the target of free speech absolutists like Elon Musk, who've accused of her trying to censor the internet.No stranger to controversy and abuse, she's now the public face of Australia's landmark social media ban for children under 16 which came into force in December.Now countries around the world are considering similar bans as cases of online addiction, self harm and abuse are reportedly on the rise.Thank you to Katy Watson and Dan Soekov for their help in making this programme.

In this episode of Builders Wanted, we're joined by Ann Rich, Senior Director of Design at Adobe. Kailey and Ann dive into the intricate world of product design where empathy drives innovation. They discuss the challenges and strategies in leading design at scale, how Adobe builds trust in the era of generative AI, and the importance of cross-functional collaboration. Ann shares insights on inclusive design, co-innovation with customers, and the evolving role of designers in creating user-centric and technologically advanced solutions.-------------------Key Takeaways:Successful AI-era design requires deep technical understanding alongside creative craft—designers must know the models and technology behind their interfaces to bridge human needs with AI capabilities.Speed and adaptability are essential as market paradigms can shift between conception and launch, requiring experimentation, customer co-innovation, and iterative validation over traditional research cycles.Design leadership gains influence by grounding decisions in data and user needs rather than aesthetic opinion, transforming design into a strategic driver in executive and engineering conversations.-------------------“ [Design] is really changing from a two-way model of communication and interaction to a three-way or more discussion. That's really thinking about it being a human, the interface they're working on, and then all of the things happening behind the scenes. In order for someone to be successful with what you're designing, designers have to start understanding the technology behind it. Because in order to deliver on the use case, you actually have to understand the technology and it will change the interface.” – Ann Rich-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(01:50) - Ann's mission at Adobe as a design leader‍*(08:15) - How trust factors into Adobe's design process‍*(16:53) - Ann's approach to inclusive design‍*(25:08) - What design teams should stop doing‍*(31:12) - A recent project that made a measurable difference for users‍*(39:06) - Ann's advice for designers looking to elevate their voice-------------------Links:Read Ann's Article How to Adapt Your Design Practice for the Age of Generative TechnologyConnect with Ann on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorBuilders Wanted is brought to you by Twilio – the Customer Engagement Platform that helps builders turn real-time data into meaningful customer experiences.

En este episodio de VG Daily, Juan Manuel de los Reyes y Eugenio Garibay analizan cómo el último reporte de ADP reencendió el debate sobre la salud del empleo en EE. UU. y lo que eso puede implicar para el pulso de la economía. Desde ahí, conectan el dato macro con el tema que está dominando el sentimiento del mercado, el impacto de la IA generativa sobre los modelos de negocio del software.En el bloque central, revisan por qué acciones de software como Intuit y Adobe reaccionan a la baja ante el temor de que modelos como los de Anthropic aceleren la “comoditización” de ciertas funciones, presionando márgenes y poder de precios. Ese mismo miedo se traslada a firmas de crédito privado y alternativos como Blue Owl y Apollo, que enfrentan sensibilidad por su exposición a compañías de software y tecnología, en un contexto donde el mercado vuelve a mirar riesgos de refinanciamiento y concentraciones sectoriales.El episodio cierra con el reporte de AMD, resultados sólidos, pero recibidos con dudas por parte del mercado, reflejando que hoy no basta con “buenos números” si la narrativa de demanda de chips para IA, competencia y visibilidad de crecimiento no termina de convencer. El hilo es claro, empleo, IA y crédito se están mezclando en una sola conversación, y el oyente se lleva un mapa de por qué un dato laboral puede amplificar movimientos en software, alternativos y semiconductores en la misma semana.

En el podcast de hoy te comparto una reflexión personal sobre un caso que seguramente afecte a más de uno de vosotros.

Are you looking to save time, make money, and start winning with less risk? Then head to https://www.ovtlyr.com.Alright… today was wild.We took the Joker's stock picks and actually ranked them from Lambo to food stamp using a 0–9 scoring system. No hype. No “trust me bro” price targets. Just straight-up trend analysis, market structure, and real risk management.We went through PayPal, Meta, Amazon, AMD, Salesforce, Adobe, Nike, SoFi and more. And here's the thing… if you can't instantly see the direction of a stock using the 10 EMA, 20 EMA, and 50 EMA, you're trading blind. Direction is math. Duration and magnitude? Nobody knows. But direction? That's visible.We also break down something most traders ignore:✅ 40% of a stock's move comes from the market✅ 30% comes from the sector✅ 30% comes from the stock itself✅ Order blocks show you trapped buyers✅ Sell signals matter more than opinionsAnd yes… we talk about the danger of setting ridiculous price targets. If a stock hasn't seen $200 since 2021 and it's sitting at $43, are you really going to wait five years just to “be right”? That's how capital gets stuck while better opportunities pass you by.We also hit the “buy the dip” myth. Because here's the truth nobody wants to say out loud: you don't know how far it's going to dip. But when something is ripping in a confirmed uptrend? You don't know how high it can go either.This is about discipline. It's about structure. It's about not setting 40% of your money on fire because you fell in love with a stock.If you want practical stock analysis, technical breakdowns, and a smarter way to approach the market, that's what OVTLYR is built for.Watch the full breakdown. Rank your stocks. Trade with structure.

Adobe dropped a bomb on 2D animators today. In less than a month, they're discontinuing Adobe Animate, formerly known as Adobe Flash. They're giving artists and studios a small window to find a replacement but... it's catastrophic. So many productions have been built around this software for DECADES. And so many animators are completely freaking out because it's not as easy as just switching to another package.

To make good creative work, you'll inevitably do a lot of bad work along the way. So building a thriving creative practice relies on showing up and doing the work consistently, whether you feel inspired or not. And we can get trapped into thinking that if only we had the perfect space, or the best pen, or right notebook, it would all be easier. This is a preview of a premium episode. To listen to the full interview, visit: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/austin-kleon But our guest today, Austin Kleon, has built a remarkable creative practice around a deceptively simple toolkit: index cards, newspapers, scissors, and glue. He's the bestselling author of Steal Like an Artist, Show Your Work, Keep Going, and Don't Call it Art. What makes Austin's approach so valuable is how he's translated these ideas into a sustainable daily practice that's lasted over a decade. In our conversation, Austin shares why he starts every day writing in his diary before he picks up the phone, how constraints (time, space and materials) actually unlock creativity rather than limiting it, and why the path to doing your best digital work might start with picking up a pen. If you've ever struggled to maintain a creative practice, felt overwhelmed by tools and options, or wondered how to keep going when the work feels hard, this episode is for you. Bio Austin Kleon is the New York Times bestselling author of a trilogy of illustrated books about creativity in the digital age: Steal Like An Artist, Show Your Work!, and Keep Going. He's also the author of Newspaper Blackout, a collection of poems made by redacting the newspaper with a permanent marker. His books have sold over two million copies and have been translated into over 30 languages. He's been featured on NPR's Morning Edition, PBS Newshour, and in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. New York Magazine called his work “brilliant,” The Atlantic called him “positively one of the most interesting people on the Internet,” and The New Yorker said his poems “resurrect the newspaper when everybody else is declaring it dead.” He speaks for organizations such as Pixar, Google, Netflix, SXSW, TEDx, Dropbox, Adobe, and The Economist. In previous lives, he worked as a librarian, a web designer, and an advertising copywriter. He lives in Austin, Texas, with his wife and sons. Visit him online at www.austinkleon.com
