Launched in May at London's iconic The Gherkin tower, HappySignals' Pasi Nikkanen sits down with benchmark lead Sakari Kyrö to unpack the brand-new 2025 Global IT Experience Benchmark Report.

You think you know Fireball? Think again. In this episode, Rob and Mark crack open a bottle of Fireball Blazin' Apple, a cinnamon-apple flavor bomb not even released to the public yet, and explore its sugary punch, the genius of its marketing, and why this might be the tailgate hit of the season. But first, they take a deep dive into the real story of Johnny Appleseed, frontier philosopher, land hustler, and the unexpected grandfather of American booze culture. Throw in a prank cricket, some Benchmark whiskey for courage, and a few questionable flavor pairings, and you've got one wild episode of Whiskey@Work. Hosted on Acast.

In 2024 the Lithium market saw huge price drops related to oversupply, a slowing EV adoption rate globally, as well as macroeconomic headwinds. Is this a pause or a more structural challenge? What is the long-term demand picture? How does geopolitics fit within that? Does technological change threaten the outlook? And in such a volatile market, why is risk management essential? Our guest is Caspar Rawles, Chief Operating Officer at Benchmark, the Independent Price Reporting Agency for Critical Minerals, including Lithium, which will soon be launching three Lithium futures contracts with the Intercontinental Exchange, ICE. What are those contracts and what do they mean for the sector?

This podcast introduces a novel profiling technique for identifying vulnerabilities in smart contracts (SCs), specifically proposing an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (EGA). It details the architecture of SCsVulLyzer (V2.0), a tool designed for feature extraction and optimization in SC analysis. The paper further categorizes and analyzes existing vulnerability detection methods, contrasting non-learning-based approaches like rule-based systems and finite state machines with learning-based techniques such as machine learning and deep learning. Ultimately, the research demonstrates the superior performance of the EGA model in accurately detecting various SC vulnerabilities compared to traditional and neural network-based methods, while also visualising and defining common profiles for both vulnerable and secure SCs.

You ever save a life at 2 a.m. with homemade elk jerky and a hazy memory of the Heimlich? Rob did, and that's just how this episode starts. From wild wedding whiskey hauls to marshmallow-flavored regrets, the guys dive into a shopping spree gone sideways and wrap up their epic Benchmark Bourbon series with the bold Bonded and Full Proof bottles. They debate the true meaning of "full proof," accidentally insult Oak & Eden, and sip their way through some of the smoothest high-proof bourbon around. It's Whiskey@Work, hydrated, educated, and probably a little overproofed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On Tesla (TSLA), she notes Benchmark upping its price target on expectations of improving macro conditions. The same can't be said for the Trade Desk (TTD), which got a downgrade from Wells Fargo.

Rob's headed north where the trees are few but the bourbon might be plentiful, and Mark's just trying to remember which Benchmark bottle he poured. In this second sip of our Benchmark Whiskey series, we crack open the Small Batch and Single Barrel, dig into what makes a bourbon “blended” or “single,” and uncover why “small batch” means... whatever a distillery wants it to mean. We also chat about England finally giving its whiskey some proper rules, a wild new release from Little Book, and Maker's Mark doing something they haven't done in 70 years. Buckle up, this one's smooth, oaky, and a little nerdy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Donald Trump hat in der Nacht eine Waffenruhe im Nahen Osten verkündet – wenige Stunden nachdem der Iran Raketen auf eine US-Basis in Katar gefeuert hat. Eine offizielle Bestätigung aus Israel und dem Iran steht heute früh noch aus.Bill Gates hat die Bundesregierung aufgefordert, den Kampf gegen die globalen Gesundheitsrisiken in den armen Ländern zu verstärken. „Ich hoffe, dass Europa seine Großzügigkeit wieder steigert“, sagt Gates im Gespräch mit Michael Bröcker. „Benchmark für diese Großzügigkeit waren immer die 0,7 Prozent des BIP. Deutschland war auf diesem Level, ich hoffe, es kommt dahin zurück.“ Momentan sei es schon ein Erfolg, wenn die Entwicklungshilfe nicht weiter gekürzt werde.Die technologischen Fähigkeiten in Deutschland seien herausragend, die Gelegenheit für Deutschland sei weiter groß.

In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson talks about the frequency of benchmarking retirement plans, focusing on fee benchmarks rather than employer contributions or eligibility periods. Using data from Callan's 2023 and 2025 defined contribution trend surveys, Eric notes that 80% of large plans reviewed fees in 2022 and 75% plan to do so in 2023. He highlights that 70-80% of these plans benchmark fees annually, with 90% doing so at least every other year. Eric emphasizes that all plans regardless of size have a fiduciary duty to monitor fees and suggests consulting the right experts for specific benchmarking frequencies.Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information contained herein is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.It is not intended to provide a specific recommendation of any type of product or service discussed in this presentation or to provide any warranties, financial advice or legal advice.The specific facts and circumstance of all qualified plans can vary and the information contained in this podcast may or may not apply to your individual circumstances or to your plan or client plan specific circumstances.

You won't be replaced by AI—you'll be replaced by someone using it better. Returning guest Marco Figueroa is back with a frontline report on the AI agent boom. This isn't a prediction—it's a tactical update from someone tracking every release, every benchmark battle, and every edge worth chasing. In this episode, Ron is joined by Marco as he breaks down the rapid evolution of AI agents—from Claude Code to Codex to Google Flow. He explains why general-purpose models are leveling off, how specialized tools are reshaping the landscape, and why creativity is now your most valuable edge. Whether you're in code, ops, or content, your two-year advantage starts right here.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Fyre Festival rises from the ashes yet again—but not as a festival, because even Billy McFarland finally figured out he's better at selling pipe dreams than tents. Meanwhile, Amazon and Microsoft are tapping the brakes on their AI data center dreams, Google's AI keeps confidently explaining made-up nonsense like it's gospel, and Kevin Roose once again tries to convince us to have empathy for the glorified autocomplete machines. (Spoiler: We won't.) Also, OpenAI wants to buy Chrome even though they can barely afford their own lunch tabs, Perplexity says the quiet part loud about stalking your browser habits, and Meta lays off more VR developers while pretending they care about human rights.In the “it's all stupid, but at least it's entertaining” department: Uber gets sued for making it harder to cancel than joining Scientology, Adam Neumann dupes investors again, sperm racing is now a real thing (and yes, there's crypto involved), and Bluesky caves to the almighty blue checkmark. Plus, Affinity Suite reminds us you don't have to sell a kidney to escape Adobe, The Wheel of Time gets an open-world game that'll probably drop after the heat death of the universe, and Wednesday Season 2 is on the way, because Netflix refuses to let its only hits rest.Stick around for The Dark Side with Dave where we grumble about Andor Season 2, lament bad writing decisions, geek out over old-school arcade games, and learn that memory colors are apparently a thing. Oh, and if you're feeling fancy, go ahead and thank ChatGPT for wasting millions in server bills—because if Sam Altman's crying about manners costing money, we're grabbing the popcorn.Sponsors:Insta360 - The first 30 people who use code “gog” at store.insta360.com get a free 45” invisible selfie stick worth $25!DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
