Alles was ich tue, sollte idealerweise in die Software einzahlen und Dokumentation tut das eigentlich nicht. In dieser Folge setzen wir uns mit den Herausforderungen und Fallstricken auseinander, die zu Beginn eines Projekts oft auftreten. Probleme von übermäßigen Dokumentationen und User Stories, die zwar gut gemeint, aber oft praxisfern sind. Wie eine starre Fixierung auf umfangreiche Dokumente die Flexibilität und Kreativität im Entwicklungsprozess hemmen kann und warum ein schlanker, fokussierter Ansatz oft zu besseren Ergebnissen führt. Wir besprechen, wie man effektiv zwischen dokumentierten Erwartungen und der realen Umsetzung navigieren kann, um Softwareentwicklung nicht nur effizienter, sondern auch zielgerichteter zu gestalten.

In episode #314 of The Hormone P.U.Z.Z.L.E Podcast, our guest Alex F, talks about Navigating Male Factor Infertility and Embracing Donor Conception. More about Alex: Alex has been married to his high school sweetheart Laurin for 12 years and together for 19. When they began trying to conceive, they experienced male factor infertility, specifically azoospermia (zero sperm). It was a devastating and shocking diagnosis that took them years to overcome. After lots of doctors appointments, grieving, and therapy, they decided to move forward using donor sperm. They now have an almost 4 year old daughter named Delaney who is the light of their lives. They have an Instagram profile called Pursuing Fatherhood where they share their story and try to support others going through something similar, with the goal of raising awareness for these issues and letting others know they're not alone.

Jakob's journey into causality started when he was 12 years old. Deeply dissatisfied with what adults had to offer when asked about the sources of causal knowledge, he started to look for the answers on his own. He studied philosophy, politics and economics to find his place at UCL's Centre for Artificial Intelligence, where he met his future PhD advisor, Prof. Ricardo Silva. At the center of Jakob's interests lies decision-making under partial knowledge.He's passionate about partial identification, sensitivity analysis, and optimal experiments, yet he's far from being just a theoretician.He implements causal ideas he finds promising in the context of material discovery at Matterhorn Studio, earlier he worked on sensitivity analysis for quasi-experimental methods at Spotify.Want to learn what a 1000-years-old church, communism and Justin Bieber have to do with causality?Tune in! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ About The GuestJakob Zeitler is a researcher at Centre for Artificial Intelligence at University College London (UCL) and a Head of R&D at Matterhorn Studio.

Unless we actively challenge our belief systems and question the way our subconscious minds are conditioned to think…we stay in the habit of wanting validation from others.” “ I define being fully expressed in 4 key aspects: Living in radical self acceptance, practicing trust within yourself, embracing your true desires, and igniting creativity.”“When we begin to achieve big goals and realize that they're not as fulfilling as you'd imagined, it means that something is not in alignment with who you really are.” “Confidence is owning your value from the inside out. Being connected to your innate worth and value."

Recorded on Nov 29, 2023 in Cambridge, UK. Video version available on YouTube Should we continue to ask why? Alicia's machine learning journey began with... causal machine learning. Starting with econometrics, she discovered semi-parametric methods and the Pearlian framework at later stages of her career and incorporated both in her everyday toolkit. She loves to understand why things work, which inspires her to ask "why" not only in the context of treatment effects, but also in the context of general machine learning. Her papers on heterogeneous treatment effect estimators and model evaluation bring unique perspectives to the community. Her recent NeurIPS paper on double descent aims at bridging the gap between statistical learning theory and a counter-intuitive phenomenon of double descent observed in complex machine learning architectures.

Recorded on Aug 29, 2023 in München, Germany. Video version available on YouTube.Can we meaningfully talk about causality in dynamical systems?Some people are puzzled when it comes to dynamical systems and the idea of causation.Dynamical systems well-known in physics, social sciences, and biology are often thought of as a special family of systems, where it might be difficult to meaningfully talk about causal direction. Naftali Weinberger devoted his career to examining the relationships between system dynamics, causality and the phenomena known broadly as "complexity". We explore what does "intervention" mean in a dynamical system and we deconstruct common intuitions about causality and system's equilibrium. We discuss the importance of time scales when defining a causal system, analyze what could have inspired Bertrand Russell to say that causality is a "relic of a bygone age" and ponder the phenomenon of emergence. Finally, Naftali shares his advice for those of us just starting exploring the uncharted territory of causal inference and discovery. Warning: this conversation might bend your sense of reality. Use with caution! Ready to dive in? About The GuestNaftali Weinberger, PhD is a Researcher at Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy at LMU.

Is private money lending the next best way to invest? To the everyday landlord, home flipper, or once-in-a-while investor, private lending seems completely foreign. Why would you lend money when you can put it into your deals? And even if you wanted to, wouldn't it take millions, or at least a few hundred thousand dollars to get started? Surprisingly, private money lending is available to more people than you think, and it could be your next way to make truly passive income.Alex Breshears and Beth Johnson were neither millionaires nor active investors when they started lending private money. Over time, they realized that they had grown relationships with active real estate investors, many of which always needed funding for the next deal. While swinging hammers and painting baseboards may sound fun to active BRRRRers or flippers, to Alex and Beth, the passive income that came in from private money lending was even better.They're now so ingrained in the world of private money lending that they've written the newest BiggerPockets book, Lend to Live, where they talk about how to build “hassle-free passive income” by lending private money. In this episode, they go over how a new investor can start lending, what to look out for in a lender when you need money for deals, and how even with a few thousand dollars, you too can start building truly passive income streams.In This Episode We Cover:How any investor can start lending money for a substantial profitWhy private lending has become more popular as investment funding becomes limitedHard money vs. private money and why you should never confuse the twoWhat to look for in a private money lender and how to vet them before you investProtecting your money as a private lender and what you need to do to secure a returnWhere private money lenders can find investors who are looking to invest And So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Pro MembershipBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets BootcampsBiggerPockets PodcastGet Your Ticket for BPCon 2022Listen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceLearn About Real Estate, The Housing Market, and Money Management with The BiggerPockets PodcastsGet More Deals Done with The BiggerPockets Investing ToolsFind a BiggerPockets Real Estate Meetup in Your AreaDavid's BiggerPockets ProfileDavid's InstagramRob's BiggerPockets ProfileRob's YoutubeRob's InstagramRob's TikTokRob's TwitterWhy Private Money Lending is a Perfect Alternative to Active InvestingThe Perks & Process of Becoming a Private LenderBooks Mentioned in the ShowLend to Live by Beth Johnson and Alex BreshearsExtreme Ownership by Leif BabinCashflow Quadrant by Robert KiyosakiPsycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz, M.DConnect with Beth & Alex:Alex and Beth Email on Lend2LiveBeth's Email on Flynn Family LendingAlex' BiggerPockets ProfileBeth's BiggerPockets ProfileLend2LiveFlynn Family LendingClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-642Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?
