“Complexity is at the core of this, and our mission at Broadcom has been how to address this complexity by making things simpler,” says Abhay Kumar, Global Head of Managed Services for Broadcom's VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) division. In this Technology Reseller News podcast, recorded live at VMware Explore 2025, Kumar discusses Broadcom's strategy for making the private cloud AI-native, portable, and partner-driven. Since acquiring VMware two years ago, Broadcom has focused on positioning VMware Cloud Foundation as the consistent foundation for enterprise workloads—whether on-premises or across hyperscaler environments. Key themes from the conversation include: AI-native private cloud – VCF now incorporates a private AI foundation, with expanded partnerships with NVIDIA and Canonical to accelerate AI and containerized workloads. License portability – Broadcom is giving customers the flexibility to dynamically move entitlements between on-premises and multiple clouds, protecting investments while enabling innovation. Ecosystem and choice – Customers can run workloads across AWS, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, and other providers while maintaining consistent control through VCF. Simplifying complexity – CIOs and partners face hybrid environments, containers, and AI workloads. VCF's single-pane-of-glass approach reduces operational complexity and ensures skills can be leveraged across environments. Kumar emphasized that Broadcom's strategy puts customers at the center, giving them the flexibility to innovate with AI services and advanced analytics while managing cost, efficiency, and control.

"You never listen to me", might be the start of a old fashioned shoot out in the wild wild west. Thankfully, the boys are much more civilized (so they say) and talk about the Frontier Firm. They end with a Kavalan, that has been on the shelve for ages and finally gets opened.Links to the material:2025: The year the Frontier Firm is bornhttps://buckleyplanet.com/2025/08/how-to-become-a-frontier-firm

In its first six years from 1998 to 2004, Google built one of the greatest products of all time (and certainly the greatest business of all time) with Search. Then in its next six years from 2005 to 2011, Google built seven (!) more billion+ user products: Gmail, Maps, Drive and Docs, YouTube, Chrome, Android, and Photos — all either started from scratch internally or acquired as startups that were still in their infancy. This six-year period of wild innovation STILL stands unmatched in technology history… no other tech company counts more than four billion+ user products in its portfolio total. And of course, this “Google 2.0” era culminated in the transformation of the very company itself into Alphabet.So the question we answer today is… how did they do it?? And why? What was the strategy that led a once “pure play” search company into such far flung fields as email, mapping, funny cat videos and operating systems? We unpack the brilliant (and sometimes accidental) strategies behind each product, the simultaneous three-front war Google fought against Microsoft, Apple, and Facebook, and the spectacular failure of Google Plus that nearly destroyed the company's culture — before ultimately setting the stage for both Alphabet and the AI revolution to come.Sponsors:Many thanks to our fantastic Summer ‘25 Season partners:J.P.

It looks like things are bad at this years Burning Man, A Bay Area Soccer team breaks US record for attendance, what was going on 10 years ago including stories on Caitlyn Jenner, Microsoft, and Princess Di.

Guest: Matthew Le Merle — CEO & Co-Founder of Blockchain Coinvestors, global blockchain VC, early investor in 1200+ startups (Coinbase, Kraken, OpenSea), author, and Silicon Valley board veteran. Background & Early Lessons: Matthew began his working life delivering newspapers as a child in rainy London, developing a lasting sense of responsibility and the importance of “seeing things through.” Earned a scholarship to Oxford for his academic and athletic excellence, then completed an MBA at Stanford. Built a career as a global advisor, executive, private equity leader, and later immersed himself in blockchain innovation. Blockchain Thesis: With 30+ years in Silicon Valley, Matthew saw the digital transformation of communication and content, but recognized a “missing link” for moving value securely over the internet. Blockchain/distributed ledger technology solved foundational challenges for digitizing finance — enabling secure, trustless, peer-to-peer transactions globally, overcoming flaws in traditional banking rails. Co-founded Blockchain Coinvestors, which invests via a fund-of-funds model across hundreds of VC funds and directly into more than 1,200 blockchain startups worldwide, spanning over 110 unicorns. Bitcoin's Future & Role: While he acknowledges that Bitcoin was a catalyst, Le Merle stresses it's the underlying technology's impact on payments, finance, and commerce that's world-changing. Believes Bitcoin (BTC) has enduring value as a store of value and “sovereign alternative” for people in unstable economies — sees it as “inevitable” that native digital finance will continue to grow globally. However, he notes BTC's long-term future depends on further technical evolution to enable faster, lower-cost, mass payments — real innovation will be when it is also digital money at global scale, not just a store of value. AI and the Arms Race: Sees both risk and opportunity in the intersection of blockchain, AI, and quantum computing: as threats emerge (e.g., AI-powered codebreaking), blockchain protocols must evolve, and the most secure blockchains—especially Bitcoin—will continue to improve. AI/quantum also unlocks new use cases (micro-payments, automated value flows) that legacy finance simply cannot address, making blockchain infrastructure and security ever more valuable. Venture Landscape & Defensibility: Le Merle's strategy: back the best VC fund managers, who in turn back top founders at the earliest stages, spreading risk and betting on the mavericks who build breakthrough companies. Warns that in AI (and other tech cycles), even groundbreaking startups can be displaced instantly by a new feature from a giant (e.g., OpenAI, Apple), so founders should build beyond “just a feature”—focus on defensible, deeply integrated solutions. Big Picture & What's Next: Digital assets, payments, and financial systems will become natively digital—blockchain is still in “early innings.” The best investment opportunities are at the convergence of Web3 and new agent/AI toolkits. Massive tech incumbents (Apple, Google, Microsoft) will keep acquiring—so both quick exits and rare breakout “escape velocity” stories are possible for top startups.

IntroductionI discovered another AI app that you can use to create slide show presentations (and videos like the one above). The app, Microsoft Copilot, allows you to create slide shows using PowerPoint. Both Copilot and PowerPoint are part of a Microsoft 365 subscription ($99 per year, personal edition).I started with three lines of information, as shown below. I entered these lines into the Create with Copilot option that comes up when you start up PowerPoint. Within a few minutes, Copilot and PowerPoint generated a sixteen-slide presentation that became the basis for the above video.Writer's Block: In Case of an Emergency, Break the GlassThere really is no such thing as writer's block or any other block to getting things done. Blocks only exist if you let them. If you move on, they melt away.As the blue collar comedians, say, “Get ‘er done!” Move on!The text for the video is showcased below. Note how Copilot took three lines and made sixteen slides with the following extensive content.Microsoft Copilot and PowerPointToday I'm showcasing another presentation program you can use, Microsoft PowerPoint combined with Copilot, to create another version of my writer's block information.So we're going to talk about understanding the concept of writer's block, debunking the myth, the reality of writer's block, practical strategies to overcome perceived blocks, and cultivating long-term productivity and creativity.Writer's block is commonly defined as an inability to generate new ideas or work, causing creative paralysis.These beliefs influence how writers view their creative struggles and shape their response to overcoming challenges.The creative blocks such as this are often portrayed in literature, where creative blocks are often depicted as a mysterious curse impacting writers, especially novelists, symbolizing an insurmountable barrier to creativity.Film and media portray creative blocks as unavoidable challenges that dramatically affect artists and writers' work.Anxiety can cause mental blocks by creating fear and stress that hinder creative thinking and writing flow.Perfectionism leads to unrealistic standards that prevent progress and increase fear of failure in writing tasks.Also, unrealistic expectations create pressure that can block creativity and cause frustration during the writing process.Writer's block is basically a myth.Many experts believe blocks are not a real condition but misconceptions about creativity. Creative pauses are often temporary challenges, not permanent stoppages in writing or creative ability. Also, lack of motivation can cause writing delays mistaken for writer's block.Prolific writers maintain consistent work habits, regardless of obstacles, highlighting consistency over inspiration.Discipline is crucial in overcoming challenges and driving steady creative output among successful creators.Persistence outweighs mysterious creative blocks, enabling writers to produce work consistent with their story.Viewing creative struggles as normal helps writers maintain motivation and reduces frustration during the process.Believing challenges are solvable fosters resilience and encourages persistent effort towards progress.A positive mindset helps sustain continuous progress despite encountering creative blocks.Practical strategies to overcome perceived blocks.Embrace imperfection. By accepting imperfection allows progress by reducing the pressure of perfectionism in creative work.Avoid overthinking. Moving on without over analyzing every detail prevents stagnation and fosters creativity.Set goals. Some of the techniques for maintaining momentum is to set goals.Break tasks into small goals to sustain momentum and make progress manageable and rewarding.Use timed writing sessions to reduce pressure and encourage focused, consistent work intervals.Employ free writing techniques that promote creativity and flow by removing constraints and allowing spontaneous ideas to emerge.Use humor. Humor eases stress and makes creative work more enjoyable, helping to overcome mental blocks.Simplify tasks, reducing overwhelm and making creative work easier and more approachable.Cultivate long-term productivity and creativity.Build resilient writing habits, first by establishing consistent writing routines to help you maintain discipline and overcome creative challenges effectively.Develop writing habits that anchor productivity by creating dependable pathways to sustain creativity and output.Embrace imperfection and continuous progress. Recognize that first drafts are not perfect and that helps reduce pressure and fosters creativity. Be ready to do ongoing revisions to help refine your ideas and improve the quality of work over time.Embrace imperfection enables sustained effort and growth in creative projects.Learn the lessons from blue-collar comedians. Get her done. Blue-collar comedians embody a straightforward practical mindset focused on action rather than excessive planning. The key lesson is to begin tasks promptly to overcome procrastination and build momentum.ConclusionEmphasize completion without overthinking to ensure productivity and success in any endeavor.Recognize that writer's blocks is often a mental barrier rather than an actual inability to write.Dispel common misconceptions about writer's block to foster a healthier writing mindset.And then implement actionable techniques—practical strategies to unlock your productivity and sustain creativity in writing.Gamma Vs. Microsoft Copilot and PowerPointBoth programs produced informative slide show presentations and videos. Personally I preferred the output from Gamma because it included actual examples and stories that enlivened the presentation.Book Marketing Success is a reader-supported publication.

Three Buddy Problem - Episode 59: Apple drops another emergency iOS patch and we unpack what that “may have been exploited” language really means: zero-click chains, why notifications help but forensics don't, and the uncomfortable truth that Lockdown Mode is increasingly the default for high-risk users. We connect the dots from ImageIO bugs to geopolitics, discuss who's likely using these exploits, why Apple's guidance stops short, and the practical playbook (ADP on, reboot often, reduce attack surface) that actually works. Plus, we debate Microsoft throttling MAPP access for Chinese vendors, the idea of “letters of marque” for cyber (outsourced offense: smart deterrent or Pandora's box?), and dissect two case studies that blur APT and crimeware: PipeMagic's CLFS zero-day and Russia-linked “Static Tundra” riding seven-year-old Cisco bugs.

Podcast Description In this episode of School Owner Talk, Duane Brumitt and Shihan Allie Alberigo dive into the growing attention span crisis among today's youth and how martial arts schools can adapt. They compare childhood in the 70s, 80s, and 90s to today's digitally distracted world, highlighting the challenges—and opportunities—for instructors. The discussion explores technology's impact on focus, why traditional class structures no longer work, and how martial arts can uniquely rebuild a child's ability to pay attention. This is Part 1 of a two-part series on using martial arts as the cure for shrinking attention spans. Key Takeaways Attention Spans Are Shorter Than EverKids today are wired for quick, constant stimulation—thanks to smartphones, video games, and fast-paced media—making long lectures or repetitive drills ineffective. Technology Is Both the Culprit and a ToolWhile screens fragment focus, kids often learn better from video demonstrations, proving that tech can be incorporated productively. Shorter, Layered Segments Work BestBreaking drills into 2–4 minute chunks, mixing in games, and disguising repetition keeps students engaged while still building skills. Structure and Ritual Provide StabilityBowing in, affirmations, and consistent class routines help signal the brain that it's time to focus—something many homes lack. Progressive Class Length Builds StaminaStarting beginners with 30 minutes, then gradually moving to 40 and 45 minutes, strengthens focus over time without overwhelming kids. Action Steps for School Owners Audit Your Class SegmentsReview how long your drills or lectures last. Adjust to shorter, more varied segments to meet kids where they're at. Use “Disguised Repetition”Teach the same skill through different methods—games, pad work, partner drills—so students practice without getting bored. Balance Energy LevelsDesign classes like a rollercoaster: high-energy drills followed by calm focus work, then back up again. Reinforce Rituals and Affirmations Make bowing in, “yes I can” statements, or leadership chants consistent so kids know how to mentally switch into focus mode. Gradually Expand Class TimeStart younger students with shorter classes, then build up as they grow. Treat focus as a muscle that strengthens with progression. Additional Resources Mentioned Deep Work by Cal Newport – understanding focus in a distracted world. Microsoft study on declining attention spans (from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds by 2015).
