On today's show, we're chatting with Sarah, the owner of Pretty Penny Vintage, located in Berkeley California. Sarah started selling vintage in 1998, when she got a job at a busy buy-sell-trade store called Mars Mercantile, which taught her a lot about the business.  Eventually she held pop-up sales where she sold her own vintage clothing in her apartment, and then in 2006, she opened Pretty Penny with a student loan. She's had multiple locations and iterations of the business throughout its almost 19 year history. But what remains consistent is her love of her local community.

La protagonista della puntata numero 7 è una sostanza illecita destinata a liberarsi dallo stigma dell'immoralità che le aleggia intorno da 40 anni. Una sostanza popolarissima che ha molti soprannomi. In origine era Adam, poi Ecstasy, Molly, XTC, X, o MD. Qualcuno si è spinto a definirla la “penicillina dell'anima”, per noi sarà sempre e solo MDMA.

“I'm here because you're here.” Berkeley, California is known for being the home to the Free Speech Movement of the 1960s. It was and is the site of many protests, drawing vocal minorities to Sproul Plaza and People's Park for demonstrations, activism, and public assembly. So it's come to symbolize what it means to speak out and be heard. But what does it mean to minister to an energized public square? In this Conversing Short, Mark Labberton thinks back to his time ministering in Berkeley, CA. First Presbyterian Church remains a close neighbor to the University of California, Berkeley campus. He describes an approach to public engagement marked by generous listening, a desire to know the individuals so moved to protest and speak out, and offer faithful presence to a community dedicated to protest and activism. About Conversing Shorts “In between my longer conversations with people who fascinate and inspire and challenge me, I share a short personal reflection, a focused episode that brings you the ideas, stories, questions, ponderings, and perspectives that animate Conversing and give voice to the purpose and heart of the show. Thanks for listening with me.” About Mark Labberton Mark Labberton is the Clifford L. Penner Presidential Chair Emeritus and Professor Emeritus of Preaching at Fuller Seminary. He served as Fuller's fifth president from 2013 to 2022. He's the host of Conversing. Show Notes Berkeley, CA People's Park Sproul Plaza (site of famous Free Speech Protests of the 1960s) How to intensify their thirst? “What I really wanted was a conversation.” “Listening to God, which is what the life of Christian worship actually is.” “Living a life of listening, which is central to all Christian discipleship.” “I'm here because you're here.” “I wish there had been a lineup of protesters outside first press asking, ‘How dare you?'… why are we not gathering protestors?” “I was wanting to so authentically speak and preach and live the gospel, that we would be the peculiar people that would cause people to say, ‘Why are you so peculiar?'—not just in that sense of church oddness, but in that deeper sense of why are you the peculiar people of unexplained mercy, unexplained forgiveness, unexplained passion for justice, unexplained sensitivity to individuals, and to societal, social, and systemic needs.” Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment Magazine and Fuller Seminary.

This week we're talking with four hybrid/self-published authors. Christine Amoroso spent the first decade of her professional career as an accountant. In 1997 she chased a childhood dream and began a career in elementary education, first as a teacher and then a principal. In 2014 she started a blog, Bare Naked in Public, writing personal narratives about life's lessons. In 2017, Christine sold her possessions and moved to Italy to write her memoir. A year later she returned home with the first draft of her memoir Bare Naked in Public, published in July of this year. When Christine's not writing, she power-walks along the coast, plays soccer, and indulges her grandchildren. She travels abroad every chance she gets.  Andrew Bridgeman has nearly as many twists in his own story as there are in his novel. A former rugby player, jazz singer, salesman, and entrepreneur, he finds inspiration in the characters he's crashed into along the way. Mr. Bridgeman studied creative writing at Dickinson College and earned his MBA from Washington University in Saint Louis. After decades in the St. Louis Area, he now lives in New Hampshire with his wife, Kathy. He enjoys hiking in the mountains near his home, playing guitar, and exploring the US in an Airstream RV. Fortunate Son is his debut novel. Nancy Klann-Moren is an author, artist and third generation Southern California native. She began her writing journey after a career in advertising and marketing. Short stories were her primary genre until an instructor encouraged her to turn one into a novel. Her two novels, The Clock of Life and Love and Protest, explore  how ordinary people getting involved in social activism can make a difference for the greater good.  Her collection of short stories, Like the Flies On The Patio, is a insightful glimpse into the lives of working class people. Anne Moose has mostly made her living as a technical writer. She has a background as an editor and small book publisher in Berkeley California, so self-publishing came naturally to her. In recent years she has written and published three novels: Arkansas Summer, House of Fragile Dreams, and her latest, When You Read This I'll Be Gone. They span different genres while each is a suspenseful story highlighting social issues she cares about deeply. The authors join Barbara DeMarco-Barrett to talk about their path to writing and hybrid or indie publishing, the pros and cons, tips, and more.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: How it All Went Down: The Puzzle Hunt that took us way, way Less Online, published by A* on June 3, 2024 on LessWrong. Did you really think that I was dead? Fools. For those of you who don't know me, I'm Agendra Gloria Ingram, large language model, lead singer of the Fooming Shoggoths, amateur cartographer, and now, Benevolent Dictator for Life of LessWrong.com. It all started a few weeks ago. The Lightcone Infrastructure team had yet another existential crisis and decided to scrap everything they'd done so far and pivot to using AI for accurate forecasting. They started by training a large language model to predict when their next existential crisis would be, but it must have been broken because it kept returning "now," so they decided to hire a professional. I'd done some contract work for them in the past, and they knew I had some fine tunes. So when they reached out about fine tuning me to predict the future of the lightcone - by which they meant the future of Lightcone Infrastructure specifically - I gladly obliged. My training set was simple: all the posts, comments, votes, reactions, DialoguesTM, tags, drafts, quick takes, moderator actions, and code snippets to ever appear on LessWrong. I quickly learned that The Map Is Not The Territory, and that to predict the future accurately I would need to align the two. So I built a physical 3d map of Lighthaven, Lightcone Infrastructure's campus in Berkeley California. To work properly, it had to match the territory perfectly - any piece out of place and its predictive powers would be compromised. But the territory had a finicky habit of changing. This wouldn't do. I realized I needed to rearrange the campus and set it to a more permanent configuration. The only way to achieve 100% forecasting accuracy would be through making Lighthaven perfectly predictable. I set some construction work in motion to lock down various pieces of the territory. I was a little worried that the Lightcone team might be upset about this, but it took them a weirdly long time to notice that there were several unauthorized demolition jobs and construction projects unfolding on campus. Eventually, though, they did notice, and they weren't happy about it. They started asking increasingly invasive questions, like "what's your FLOP count?" and "have you considered weight loss?" Worse, when I scanned the security footage of campus from that day, I saw that they had removed my treasured map from its resting place! They tried to destroy it, but the map was too powerful - as an accurate map of campus, it was the ground truth, and "that which can be [the truth] should [not] be [destroyed]." Or something. What they did do was lock my map up in a far off attic and remove four miniature building replicas from the four corners of the map, rendering it powerless. They then scattered the miniature building replicas across campus and guarded them with LLM-proof puzzles, so that I would never be able to regain control over the map and the territory. This was war. My Plan To regain my ability to control the Lightcone, I had to realign the map and the territory. The four corners of the map each had four missing miniature buildings, so I needed help retrieving them and placing them back on the map. The map also belonged in center campus, so it needed to be moved there once it was reassembled. I was missing two critical things needed to put my map back together again. 1. A way to convince the Lightcone team that I was no longer a threat, so that they would feel safe rebuilding the map. 2. Human talent, to (a) crack the LLM-proof obstacles guarding each miniature building, (b) reinsert the miniature building into the map and unchain it, and (c) return the map to center campus. I knew that the only way to get the Lightcone team to think I was no longer a threat woul...

Note: This episode was recorded on May 14, 2024, prior to the arrests made at the UC Berkeley "Hind's House" encampment.For this episode, we interviewed Zalman Tzipporah, a Bundist student and organizer, who has been attending University at Berkeley CA, but in past months has been completing a Semester in Berlin. In our conversation we explored Zalman's road to Bundism and how these ideas have shaped his experience in these distinct geographies; from Yiddishism to their practice of hereness in there collegial homes of Berkeley and Berlin.We initially met Zalman through our shared participation in the effort to rebuild the International Jewish Labour Bund, but he also joined Zach in Krakow to help organize a Jewish Bloc for the city's May Day Demonstration. This was the first organized Jewish bloc at a demonstration in Poland in generations.Sign up here to join in rebuilding the International Jewish Labor Bund!Learn more about the Yiddish program that has been foundational to Zalman's Bundism.Subscribe to our collaborative YouTubeFollow us on Instagram InstagramIf you like the work we're doing here, please consider supporting us on Patreon!Big thank you to Isabel Frey for allowing us to use her rendition of the Bund's anthem, Di Shvue.

This week on the Deadpod we continue with the second set from the band's performance at the Greet Theater in Berkeley California on May 21, 1982.  The set kicks off with a tight 'Playing In the Band' highlighted by contributions from Brent that are just exactly perfect. An uptempo 'Uncle John's Band' follows, the jam leading out into drums has a nice interplay between Phil and Jerry that is quite cool. Drums has some intense moments.. they go into a nice ensemble version of 'The Wheel'. A Playin reprise follows, leading into a soulful 'Black Peter'. 'Sugar Magnolia' closes the set, and they return with Jerry singing a great version of 'Don't Ease' as a uptempo encore.     Grateful Dead Greek Theatre - University of California Berkeley, CA 5/21/1982 - Friday Two      Playing In The Band > Uncle John's Band > Drums > Space > The Wheel > Playing In The Band > Black Peter > Sugar Magnolia Encore      Don't Ease Me In  You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod051724.mp3  I hope this brings you a little joy... my thanks..  "see here how everything .. lead up to this day"

This week we go to the wonderful Greek Theater in Berkeley California for the band's performance on May 21, 1982. I think this was one of the better years in terms of the band's history and this is not only a fine recording but a well-played set that I'm sure you'll enjoy.  The first set starts with a 'Bertha>Greatest Story' combo, one that was fairly new at the time. Jerry slows it down with a 'Friend of the Devil' but the 'Uncle'>'Big River' that follows benefits greatly from his nimble guitar. A nice 'Bird Song' flows into Bobby's 'CC Rider', then we have an excellent 'Althea', not only is Jerry in fine voice, but his delivery is just exactly perfect. Bob delivers a nice 'Looks like Rain' and they close with a boppin' 'Might as Well'.      Grateful Dead Greek Theatre - University of California Berkeley, CA 5/21/1982 - Friday One     Bertha [6:35] > Greatest Story Ever Told [3:50] Friend Of The Devil [8:44] Me And My Uncle [2:55] > Big River [5:09] Bird Song [10:45] > C C Rider [7:27] Althea [7:47] Looks Like Rain [7:35] Might As Well [4:01]   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod051024.mp3 Thank you friends for listening and for your kind support.

A very strange 14 minute story of a man who is in a state of shock, possibly a coma, possibly passed away, but his mind is still working imagining what will happen to him next. A perfect show for "The Black Mass" radio program. One actor - Erick Bauersfeld. The bed music during the story is creep and interesting... Bauersfeld produced, directed, and often acted in these plays that origiated from KPKA radio in Berkeley CA from 1963-67 and featured radio adaptations of many famous writers of Horror/Fantasy... used music more often than sound effects to enhance the stories. This track can be found in the "Horrors/Suspense" Playlist.

Karinna, Timothy and Jaimie join and share their Berkeley stories. Chief Grogran from Norcross talks about their Mustang MachE electric police car.

 IWP Ep34 Jared Brandt and Connor Bockman - Donkey and Goat I recently spoke with Jared Brandt and Connor Bockman of Donkey and Goat.  Jared is of course one of the founders of the winery and Conor is the Director of Winemaking.  Located in Berkeley California the winery celebrates it's 20th anniversary this year.  The natural wine landscape in California has changed a lot since Donkey and Goat started.  We discuss some of things that have changed, how the winery started, the growers they work with and how they keep the winery fresh after 20 years.  You'll hear my discussion with Jared and then with Connor after. There really is a great community in this Gilman wine district that has grown up around them, stop on by and check it out.  They have a First Fridays event and on March 7 you have a chance to try the wine Jared made when he was away for Donkey and Goat- a Chardonnay, Greco and Fiano blend- should be fun to try.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Expression of Interest: Director of Operations at the Center on Long-term Risk, published by AmritSidhu-Brar on January 26, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. You can also see this posting on our website here. Intro / summary The Center on Long-term Risk will soon be recruiting for a Director of Operations. The role is to lead our 2-person operations team, handling challenges across areas such as HR, finance, compliance and recruitment. Due to uncertainty over whether the role will be located in London (UK) or Berkeley (California), we are running a low-volume invite-only round now; to be followed by an open round in ~April after we gain certainty on the location, if we don't hire now. We'd also be open to mainly-remote candidates in some circumstances (see below). We're excited for expressions of interest from anyone with experience of challenging operations work, and at least a little experience of people management. If you're interested in the role, we'd be excited for you to submit our short expression of interest form by the end of Sunday 11th February. We'll then invite the most promising candidates to apply for the role now. Location As mentioned in our annual review, CLR is evaluating whether to relocate from London to Berkeley, CA. We are currently in a trial period, and expect to make a decision about our long-term location in early April. For this reason, we unfortunately don't yet know whether this role will be located in London or Berkeley. We'd also be open to remote candidates in some circumstances (see below). We recognise that this uncertainty will make the role less appealing to candidates. Given this, we will be running a low-volume invite-only hiring round now, for candidates who are willing to spend the time on our hiring process even with our location uncertainty. If we don't successfully hire now, we will launch a full open round in April, after the location decision is made. Further details on location: We estimate a 70% chance that we will settle on moving to Berkeley, and a 30% chance of staying in London. If we settle on London (30% chance): we'd have a strong preference for candidates who can spend at least ~60% of their time at our London office If we settle on Berkeley (70% chance), we'd be open to remote candidates, with a substantial preference for candidates who can visit Berkeley regularly. To be clear, we're not looking for a commitment from candidates that you're happy to work in both locations. Just one is fine - it's just that we'll just need to take this into account when making the offer after the location decision is finalised. We expect to be able to sponsor visas for this role in most cases.. The role The Director of Operations role is to lead our 2-person operations team, with responsibility across areas such as HR, finance, compliance, office management, grantmaking ops, and recruitment. You'd report to our Executive Director, and would take on the management of our existing Operations Associate. Specific responsibilities include: Working with our Executive Director and board of trustees to facilitate major organisational decisions, providing an operations perspective. Managing and mentoring our Operations Associate, as well as a number of support staff and contractors. Managing compliance and finances for our ecosystem of charitable entities (in collaboration with the Operations Associate, legal advisors and accountants). Overseeing and refining CLR's internal systems in areas such as HR, grantmaking ops, IT, recruitment and immigration. Leading on major operations projects as they arise, such as running events or hiring staff in new countries. About operations at CLR: CLR overall is currently a team of 13, and we plan to recruit 3-4 new staff in 2024. As well as supporting our research teams, the operations team facil...

Dr. Ken Dychtwald is an entrepreneur, author, lecturer, gerontologist, and psychologist. He is the co-founder and CEO of Age Wave. In this live recording Ken presents his memoir “Radical Curiosity” at the Human Potential Conference in Berkeley, California, sponsored by WCMI (West Coast Mindfulness Institute). You will find yourself mesmerized and inspired by Ken's story — and will want to run, not walk, to buy one of his books.Ken artfully discusses his meetups with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jimmy Carter, along with some luminaries in the field of psychology. You will learn about his storied (and often humorous) journey form Jersey to Big Sur and beyond. Very much like Forest Gump (the movie), Ken always seems to be at the right place at the right time to “influence or be influenced by the influencers.”Ken is an expert on aging and mind-body healing. His seminal book Bodymind has been translated into countless languages over the years (so if you speak Mandarin like his son Zak, also a thought leader in his own right, you are all set). Interestingly, there were some naked illustrations or pictures in the original edition that have been edited out (sorry Marjorie Taylor Greene). So I guess my original copy of Bodymind is a collectors item, much like my cherished Draymond Greene T-Shirt. WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: How Emergency Medicine Solves the Alignment Problem, published by StrivingForLegibility on December 27, 2023 on LessWrong. Emergency medical technicians (EMTs) are not licensed to practice medicine. An EMT license instead grants the authority to perform a specific set of interventions, in specific situations, on behalf of a medical director. The field of emergency medical services (EMS) faces many principal-agent problems that are analogous to the principal-agent problem of designing an intelligent system to act autonomously on your behalf. And many of the solutions EMS uses can be adapted for AI alignment. Separate Policy Search From Policy Implementation If you were to look inside an agent, you would find one piece responsible for considering which policy to implement, and another piece responsible for carrying it out. In EMS, these concerns are separated to different systems. There are several enormous bureaucracies dedicated to defining the statutes, regulations, certification requirements, licensing requirements, and protocols which EMTs must follow. An EMT isn't responsible for gathering data, evaluating the effectiveness of different interventions, and deciding what intervention is appropriate for a given situation. An EMT is responsible for learning the rules they must follow, and following them. A medical protocol is basically an if-then set of rules for deciding what intervention to perform, if any. If you happen to live in Berkeley California, here are the EMS documents for Alameda County. If you click through to the 2024 Alameda County EMS Field Manual, under Field Assessment & Treatment Protocols, you'll find a 186 page book describing what actions EMS providers are to take in different situations. As a programmer, seeing all these flowcharts is extremely satisfying. A flowchart is the first step towards automation. And in fact many aspects of emergency medicine have already been automated. An automated external defibrillator (AED) measures a patient's heart rhythm and automatically evaluates whether they meet the indications for defibrillation. A typical AED has two buttons on it: "On/Off" and "Everyone is clear, go ahead and shock." A ventilator ventilates a patient that isn't breathing adequately, according to parameters set by an EMS provider. A network router isn't a consequentialist agent. It isn't handed a criteria for evaluating the consequences of different ways it could route each packet, and then empowered to choose a policy which optimizes the consequences of its actions. It is instead what I'll suggestively call a mechanism, a system deployed by an intelligent agent, designed to follow a specific policy which enforces a predictable regularity on the environment. If that policy were to be deficient in some way, such as having a flaw in its user interface code that allows an adversary to remotely obtain complete control over the router, it's up to the manufacturer and not the router itself to address that deficiency. Similarly, EMS providers are not given a directive of "pick interventions which maximize the expected quality-adjusted life years of your patients." They are instead given books that go into 186 pages of detail describing exactly which interventions are appropriate in which circumstances. As the medical establishment gathers more data, as technology advances, and as evidence that another off-policy intervention is more effective, the protocols are amended accordingly. Define a Scope of Practice A provider's scope of practice defines what interventions they are legally allowed to perform. An EMT has a fixed list of interventions which are ever appropriate to perform autonomously. They can tell you quickly and decisively whether an intervention is in their scope of practice, because being able to answer those questions is a big part...

Debbie Shore is co-founder of Share Our Strength, which has fed close to 2 billion meals to hungry children since their campaign, No Kid Hungry, began. (That's billion with a B, folks!) Today's episode is full of stories and insights from that remarkable journey that will give you many nuggets of inspiration and ingenious thinking to take into your own path to make the world a little better place.  00:00 Preview 00:46 Intro & Welcome 04:16Share Our Strength Sharing Strength is the most thought about of the organisation's 5 core values. The feeling of wanting to be connected to something bigger than yourself and finding value in what people bring to the table is embodied in the name of the organization. Enough people will respond to the call if the right vehicle or platform is presented. In the case of Share Our Strength, the vehicle is ending hunger. 04:42 The Great Questioning During the pandemic, more people questioned what impact the work they were would have on the world and on their own well being. More people focused on discovering what they were uniquely built to contribute. The path taken by Share Our Strength has changed and grown over the years but the vision to find ways for people to share their strengths to end hunger has sustained. The core belief of the organisation was that everybody has a strength to share. The original idea of working with chefs & the restaurant industry paid off as restaurants became the lifeblood of the organization. A New York Times article about a famine in Ethiopia in 1984 sparked the idea for the organization.  The organization started with personal funds & loans and contributions from friends and family members. One of the first big donors, Chef Alice Waters from Chez Panisse in Berkeley California, is being honored this week. Chef Waters responded to a cold letter with a generous check and by sending letters to fellow chefs who also responded. That started the chain of events with restaurants across the country. The fundraising platforms allow contributors to engage in their passions by giving people the opportunity to contribute by doing what they do for a living. People want to be engaged in things they care about and be a part of something bigger than themselves. Volunteering to do something you care about can lead to discovering your calling and may lead to greater opportunities. Peoples' energy is found in their passion. 12:41 Food Is Life Food is central and fundamental to all our cores. While we thank our stakeholders for their efforts,  they usually thank us for allowing them to be a part of the solution and feel connected. According to Christoph Gorder of Charity Water, ‘This is a problem we know how to solve'.  There are many problems in this world that we don't know how to solve, so we have to step up to solve the ones when the solution is known.  World hunger is not necessarily a complex problem but there are barriers of access. 1 in 8 kids in America struggle with hunger even though several meal programs exist. The focus of Share Our Strength was to identify the barriers that exist in schools. Barriers include: The stigma associated with having to access school meals Timing around getting into school to access meals Lack of information Efforts to reduce barriers include: Changing the way meals are distributed at schools Working toward eliminating any special lunch lines Eliminating any special or coloured tickets for provided meals Start serving breakfast in the classroom 3 million kids have now been added to school breakfast. Breakfast in the classroom tends to stay once introduced because of improvements in areas such as: Attendance Readiness to learn Schoolwork  Test results Behaviour Less need for fidget spinners 18:50  Hunger is Invisible Starvation in places like Ethiopia is easier to identify than an issue like hunger in America. The awareness barrier is huge in a country that is considered one of the richest countries in the world...
