Phantom Electric Ghost With Neena Pandey Mom, Wife, Serial Enterprenuer, Forbes Author How to break through 9-5 grind I am a serial entrepreneur. I have bootstrapped and successfully scaled two companies. IndieRoots, my lifestyle brand, grew to more than $1M annual sales in less than two years without any marketing expense. My education business, ClubZ Tutoring,, was America's fastest growing franchise in the space in just under one year of operation. I have a track record of creating impact and building revenue generating businesses along the way. I recently launched my fashion brand String Code that's creating waves ever since it's launch.     Before I took the plunge into entrepreneurship, I was a marketing executive in Silicon Valley. During my tenure at technology companies, I achieved a consistent record of driving market impact, revenue delivery, and customer delight. At Zyme, I successfully launched a new product in a new category. We disrupted the market and launched in multiple markets thereafter. At Sun, for a new product, I exceeded goals by 106%. At Oracle, I proposed an idea that's now a star offering.   My extensive experience launching product and service related business uniquely positions me to share my experiences with other like-mind individuals who want to break free of corporate 9-5 job or just want to create something meaningful and earn consistant income along the way.

In this Nomad Futurist podcast, Bill Skinner, Operations Services Manager at Bloomberg LP, shares a dynamic journey highlighted by a commitment to constant learning in the critical infrastructure space — a path that has led him to operationalize training programs at Bloomberg and serve as a data center evangelist within the tech community through his position as President of the NYC/NJ metro chapter of AFCOM. Skinner had a natural proclivity for tech from an early age. His first computer was a Tandy 500 which he tinkered with, broke, reassembled and improved. In high school he excelled at computers, studying programming languages and software development as well as electronics. “My dad said, ‘you're going into computers.'” After graduating college with an IT degree and despite the dot-com crash, he managed to get hired by Sun Microsystems supporting Bloomberg financial. He hit the ground running. At Sun he received intensive training in data center engineering, learning about hardware, and working on what at the time were supercomputers. “Where I really learned was on the job. I've always been able to jump in and learn new things.”  Skinner talks about his career evolution, how he gradually became aware of the myriad elements that make up the data center environment:  the servers, the racks, the power, the batteries, the cooling. He moved into middle management in Bloomberg's New York City data center and was tasked with transforming the siloed work culture. He asked workers to expand their remit and found that those that met the challenge excelled. “My passion is leadership at this point…really growing people and helping them succeed, growing the department.” Skinner talks about the importance of having ongoing conversations with technology vendors to stay ahead of the curve, ensuring that the right questions are being considered and the right issues addressed.   “You go out there and ask what's coming? What should we be learning? What should we be addressing? Never hire for what you need today, hire for what you need tomorrow.” He also highlights the importance of continuous training and how that has been incorporated as an ongoing process at his company where they have instituted weekly internal seminars to challenge their employees and help teams grow. Skinner also talks about his leadership involvement with AFCOM where he was instrumental in revitalizing the NYC/NJ metro chapter after superstorm Sandy flooded and disrupted much of lower Manhattan. As a strong believer in the power of collaboration and community, Skinner's focus for the organization stressed and continues to encourage education, networking, and the pooling of information. “Let's see how you're doing it. Are we doing it differently? Are you doing it better? Let's compare notes so this will help everyone!”   Bill Skinner has twenty years of experience in the Data Center and Technology Infrastructure environment and is currently Operations Services Manager for Bloomberg LP, managing a range of teams responsible for automating infrastructure services for the company's extensive engineering/developer community. During his 17-year tenure at Bloomberg, Skinner has managed data center facilities, developed new standards, processes, and technologies, and built and enabled highly successful IT teams.  Bill Skinner is a frequent speaker at industry events and is the President of the NY/NJ Chapter of AFCOM. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology from Plymouth State University.

Oxide and Friends Twitter Space: August 23rd, 2021The episode formerly known as ℔We've been holding a Twitter Space weekly on Mondays at 5p for about an hour. Even though it's not (yet?) a feature of Twitter Spaces, we have been recording them all; here is the recording for our Twitter Space for August 23rd, 2021.In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, speakers on August 23rd included Neal Gompa, Tom Lyon, Laura Abbott, Jeremy Tanner, Matt Campbell, Simeon Miteff and others.

Tock multitasking embedded OS, and Bryan's “Tockilator: Deducing Tock execution flows from Ibex Verilator traces” video ~12mins In Tock, dynamic program loading is central. Hubris functions as a security-minded service processor. The programs it will use are all known in advance; so dynamic loading (and the accompanying security concerns) can be left out.

QNX vs monolithic systems. QNX was robust against module failure, so bugs in modules were tolerable. At Sun, faults in a module were system faults, so bugs were unacceptable. Memory protection.

Previously, Peter was also the CTO/CIO of CBS Interactive where he brought CBS into the cloud. At Sun, Peter was the CTO of the Liberty identity consortium that designed SAML 2. In Today’s Episode We Discuss: How did Peter make his way into the world of enterprise SaaS with the founding and selling of 6 companies and how did InCountry come about? What is that founding moment? Why does Peter feel like it enterprise is really hard again? Why is it no longer to come into large enterprises with a small contract and expand? How does Peter think about enterprise pilots today? Do they really mean anything? What proof points suggest an enterprise is really bought in? What benchmarks should startups bake into the agreements?  How does Peter think about and approach market sizing today? Why is market risk no longer a risk he is willing to take? Where do many entrepreneurs make mistakes when it comes to market timing? In terms of timing, how should entrepreneurs think about whether to start at SMB and move to enterprise or start enterprise and move to SMB? What are the considerations?  Why does Peter believe that large orgs are so dysfunctional today? What can founders do to extract the truly special talent out of these large orgs with big pay packets and troves of options? How has Peter found the transition from CTO to CEO this time? What have been some of the challenges? Where has he asked for external help?  Having built numerous successful remote teams, what have been Peter’s biggest learnings in what it takes to successfully build remote teams? Where do many people go wrong? Does it have to be from Day 1? When is the right time to start thinking about this as a startup?   Peter’s 60 Second SaaStr: What would Peter most like to change about the world of Silicon Valley and tech? Who is the biggest rockstar in the valley that is less well known? Hire fast, fire fast, agree or disagree?  Read the full transcript on our blog.

Everest?  Enter Shailee Basnet.   After growing up with "the secret dream to go out and play" in the face of a culture that discourages women from doing so, Basnet was presented with the opportunity to summit Everest.  She took it, and has never looked back.  Since conquering the tallest mountain on earth, Basnet spearheaded the Seven Summits Women Team, which became the first female team in the world to climb the highest peak in each continent.
