American Idol runner up-turned author David Archuleta joins the Art of Kindness with Robert Peterpaul to discuss his authentic new memoir Devout. From the 'blur' of being on Idol to finding the courage to practice self-acceptance later in life, David and Robert openly discuss: Life-changing acts of kindness that saved David on his journey to coming out. Connecting with celebrities like Dolly Parton, Loren Allred and Demi Lovato. Plus, a surprise from his mom and BFF, and more! DAVID ARCHULETA: On Season 7 of American Idol, David Archuleta made over 30 million television viewers swoon with his angelic voice, ultimately winning runner-up on the show at the age of seventeen. His journey has included turning out multiple platinum-selling hits, achieving global acclaim as a live performer, and emerging as an undeniable fixture on the pop-culture scene. Since his first single “Crush,” he has released eight studio albums, twenty-four singles, and twenty-one music videos. Hit singles “Crème Brulée” and “Hell Together” have marked a striking evolution and new chapter for David as an artist and creative entrepreneur while continuing to expand his audience globally. Having grown up as a poster child for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, David struggled to be his true self and didn't come out as queer until 2021. He now advocates for members of the LGBTQ+ community. He lives in Los Angeles, California. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Send a textThese two Sundance Film Festival documentaries discuss human life, both in how we deal with aging, and the lengths that we go to live longer.The Oldest Person in the World chronicles the ever-changing Guinness World Record holders of the title of oldest person alive. Director Sam Green discusses his curiosity with our obsession with death, why the record holders are mostly women, and how the story became something bigger that he never saw coming.Sentient exposes the hidden world of pain in laboratory research (both from the animals and the scientists that work in the field), questioning the justifications for harming animals and our alternatives in the future. Director Tony Jones sits down to share his frustration with vaccine deniers in the US, how we can move forward without animal testing, and why his goal with this film is to make the audience feel like you're on an emotional roller coaster. Follow director Sam Greene on IGThank you to our sponsor, Standard Deviant BrewingSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!

Send a textThis episode brings you two Sundance documentary short films that touch on such timely issues that our filmmakers rushed to get them out as soon as possible.In La Tierra del Valor (The Home of the Brave), during a summer of grief and fear brought about by ice raids in Los Angeles, one small act of bravery brings a community of hope. Director (and return guest) Cristina Costantini and producer Alfie Koetter sit down with us to discuss how they met Nezza, the patriotism of immigrants, and how bravery feels a lot like fear. In short, FUCK ICE.Luigi is a short film about the cultural sensation (and obsession) following the murder charge of Luigi Mangione. Director (and return guest) Liza Mandelup shares why she was inspired to tell the story from this perspective, how she scouted online and in her own backyard of NYC for the subjects of her film, and our collective rage and frustration that has led us to this moment.

Happy Friday Mosquitoes & Mossies!In honour of our real life besties NEVER listening to our advice, we started this ep off with a lil bit of healing by way of giving advice to our bollywood besties who we believe had gone down the wrong path. Criminal guys and gals seem to be the flavour of the season when it comes to falling in love, and MOS does not approve. By popular demand we are back with an episode on the futility of advising your girl besties, broken female friendships, bury-the-body friends, and the myth that is a mature friendship breakup. Naina and Sakshi debate the difference between supporting your friends and enabling them, with a humble request from Sakshi to do some enabling when it comes to Meerut pronunciations. We also discussed whether our parent's generation did friendship better, Naina tried to start a pen pal community, and Sakshi requested that you remember that this is a comedy podcast - so have some pity on a bin-byaahi beti. Finally, we unpacked a few stories from MOS listeners who experienced some insane girl besties, and took a moment of silence for the mom friend of the group (hug your nearest mom friend, give them a day off, pls). Bonus: Exam szn got Sakshi feeling nostalgic and she gave us a mini-recap of a gadhyasankalan short story that has traumatized many an ICSE student.If you are a tru MOS bestie, go enable us by hitting like, share, hype, subscribe, follow, and scream it from the rooftops so that we can hit 100k.

Send a textThis episode brings you two Sundance documentaries that show very different ways that technology can have an impact on our lives.Joybubbles is a biopic about a deaf man (born decades before the internet or the computer) who learns how to manipulate the telephone system by whistling, and inadvertently lays the groundwork for the future of hacking and technology. Director Rachel J. Morrison joins us to share how she learned about Joybubbles from his obituary in the NY Times, his connection to Mr. Rogers, and the meta way in which she found hours of tapes of Joybubbles speaking about his life. Ghost in the Machine is a documentary that reveals the dark untold origins of Artificial Intelligence, and where we go from here. Director Valerie Veatch sits down with us to discuss her years long work examining the intersection of technology and society, why we should all be friction maxing everyday (and what the hell that actually means),  and how being a parent informs her work (and vice versa).Follow Joybubbles on IGFollow director Rachel J.

We sit down with director/writer Lily Platt and actor Sarah Steele to talk victimhood, privilege, and why everyone could use a little therapy. Congrats to Crisis Actor for winning the Short Film Jury Award for US Fiction!Taga follows a Filipino American as she travels to the Philippines to reconnect to her roots, but encounters a group of eco-volunteers who disturb the village and awaken ancient monsters. Director/writer Jill Marie Sachs and producer Louise Barretto join us to discuss the wealth of monsters and folklore in Filipino culture, why they prepared an offering for the land before filming in a remote village of the Philippines, and how "woke backpackers" can sometimes turn toxic.In Prime, a trauma victim joins a utopian farm and realizes she's bitten off more than she can chew. Director/writer Meagan Coyle joins us to discuss why people are drawn to cults, the art of pacing in a short film, and how she went from make-up artist to director.Follow director Lily Platt on IGFollow actor Sarah Steele on IGFollow Taga on IGFollow director Jill Marie Sachs on IGFollow producer Louise Barretto on IGFollow director Meagan Coyle on IGSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!

What does it take for a friendship to last from sixth grade to midlife?In this episode of Talking Smack 415, Jamie the Great and I we dive deep into the origin story of a forever friendship that belongs to Caryn and Jen and began at Brett Harte Elementary School in Cherry Hill, New Jersey — back when Guess jeans, first bras, and hours-long phone calls ruled the world.This is a story about growing up together and navigating friendship into adulthood. And about choosing each other again and again over decades.We talk about:Talking on the phone for hours (when life was innocent and drama meant who liked who)Playing Uno for hours and chatting on the swings ( a total stranger things moment)  The time they stood up for themselves after a teacher called them “dirt bags”Getting their periods and figuring out how to use a tamponAdmiration, loyalty, and the safety of a judgment-free zone A few “mean girl” moments (because high school…) Why this relationship remains one of the most important in their livesThrough middle school memories, teenage growing pains, and adult responsibilities, what has kept them bonded is something rare: A total judgment-free zone.This episode is for anyone who:Still talks to their elementary school best friendWonders how to maintain long-term female friendshipsBelieves women need lifelong friendships to thriveIs navigating midlife and reflecting on the people who shaped themBecause sometimes the most important love story in your life… isn't romantic. It's your best friend from 6th grade.Research shows that long-term female friendships improve mental health, longevity, and emotional resilience. But what does that look like in real life?It looks like:Phone cords stretched across bedroomsSharing secrets before you even know who you areGrowing up without growing apartChoosing loyalty over egoKnowing someone has seen every version of you — and loves you anywayThis is nostalgia, vulnerability, laughter, and real talk about why female friendships are foundational — especially in midlife.Share this episode with your friends and family who love to laugh.

What if life itself is just a really sophisticated computer program that wrote itself into existence?In this mind-bending talk, *Blaise Agüera y Arcas* takes us on a journey from random noise to the emergence of life, using nothing but simple code and a whole lot of patience. His artificial life experiment, cheekily named "BFF" (the first two letters stand for "Brainf***"), demonstrates something remarkable: when you let random strings of code interact millions of times, complex self-replicating programs spontaneously emerge from pure chaos.*Key Insights from this Talk:**The "Artificial Kidney" Test for Life* — What makes something alive isn't what it's made of, but what it *does*. A rock broken in half gives you two rocks. A kidney broken in half gives you a broken kidney. Function is what separates the living from the non-living.*Von Neumann Called It* — Before we even knew what DNA looked like, mathematician John von Neumann figured out exactly what life needed to copy itself: instructions, a constructor to follow them, and a way to copy those instructions. He basically predicted molecular biology from pure logic.*The Magic Moment* — Watch as Blaise shows the exact instant when his simulation transitions from random noise to organized, self-replicating code. It's a genuine phase transition, like water freezing into ice, except instead of ice, you get *life*.*Evolution Without Mutation* — Here's the twist that challenges everything you learned in biology class: this complexity emerges even when mutation is set to zero. The secret? Symbiogenesis. Things don't just mutate to get better; they *merge*. Two simple replicators that work well together fuse into something more complex.*We're All Made of Viruses* — This isn't just simulation theory. In the real world, the mammalian placenta came from an ancient virus. A gene essential for forming memories? Also a virus. Life has been merging and absorbing other life forms all the way down.The implications are profound: life isn't just computational, it was computational from the very beginning. And intelligence? That's just what happens when these biological computers start modeling each other.Whether you're into artificial life, evolutionary biology, or just want to understand what makes you *you*, this talk will fundamentally change how you think about the boundary between living and non-living matter.---TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Introduction: From Noise to Programs & ALife History00:03:15 Defining Life: Function as the "Spirit"00:05:45 Von Neumann's Insight: Life is Embodied Computation00:09:15 Physics of Computation: Irreversibility & Fallacies00:15:00 The BFF Experiment: Spontaneous Generation of Code00:23:45 The Mystery: Complexity Growth Without Mutation00:27:00 Symbiogenesis: The Engine of Novelty00:33:15 Mathematical Proof: Blocking Symbiosis Stops Life00:40:15 Evolutionary Implications: It's Symbiogenesis All The Way Down00:44:30 Intelligence as Modeling Others00:46:49 Q&A: Levels of Abstraction & Definitions---REFERENCES:Paper:[00:01:16] Open Problems in Artificial Lifehttps://direct.mit.edu/artl/article/6/4/363/2354/Open-Problems-in-Artificial-Life[00:09:30] When does a physical system compute?https://arxiv.org/abs/1309.7979[00:15:00] Computational Lifehttps://arxiv.org/abs/2406.19108[00:27:30] On the Origin of Mitosing Cellshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11541392/[00:42:00] The Major Evolutionary Transitionshttps://www.nature.com/articles/374227a0[00:44:00] The ARC genehttps://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/memory-gene-goes-viralPerson:[00:05:45] Alan Turinghttps://plato.stanford.edu/entries/turing/[00:07:30] John von Neumannhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann[00:11:15] Hector Zenilhttps://hectorzenil.net/[00:12:00] Robert Sapolskyhttps://profiles.stanford.edu/robert-sapolsky---LINKS:RESCRIPT: https://app.rescript.info/public/share/ff7gb6HpezOR3DF-gr9-rCoMFzzEgUjLQK6voV5XVWY

This week at the Desk of Ladyada, we're back to hardware... with a baby in a bouncer and an LLM on the clock. The VCNL4010 proximity sensor has been discontinued, so we need to move to the VCNL4030. That means a new EagleCAD library file, and we're testing whether Claude Code (Opus, high effort) can generate one straight from the datasheet. Historically we've had to create a footprint for each device we use - and one of our gripes is how annoying it is to convert when manufacturers spec edge-to-edge pad dimensions instead of center-to-center pitch, which is what every CAD tool actually uses. In our experiment, Claude Code handled the math, got the pad sizes (0.65 x 0.75mm) and pitch (1.05mm) correct on the footprint, arranged logical pin grouping on the schematic and matched pin-to-pad correctly.. It even matched our drawing style by learning from existing Adafruit library files in the repo. The whole run took about 4 minutes and 45 seconds.Nota bene: it's not perfect! Our first pass had schem label overlaps and an unnecessary exposed center pad (Gemini Deep Think was actually smarter about skipping that pad). We also tried having Claude Code design a full QT Py terminal BFF board... it worked-ish but needed enough back-and-forth that doing it by hand would've been faster. Footprint generation is ready for integration into our workflow - maybe we'll kick it off while we review the datasheet - but, full board layout isn't quite there yet. Other things on the desk: we're setting up OpenClaw to subscribe to every chip manufacturer newsletter and generate daily reports on new components worth stocking. New protos include the TMF8806 time-of-flight sensor from AMS (up to 10 meters, and possibly simpler drivers than ST's VL53 series) and a PMW3901 optical flow sensor often used in drone navigation.

Angelina Keeley & Aubry Bracco Survivor 50 Preseason Interviews Mike Bloom (@AMikeBloomType) is here to chat to the cast of Survivor 50! Join us to hear from your favorite returning Survivor players! Today, Mike Bloom starts a preseason deep dive into the Vatu tribe featuring returnees Angelina Keeley and Aubry Bracco. Angelina opens up about her major life changes since David vs. Goliath, while Aubry reflects on her evolution across her storied Survivor journey, setting the stage for a season full of big personalities, new alliances, and possible blindsides. Mike chats with Angelina about what it's like to be called back after seven years away from the game, including leaving behind a young family and a new business to take another shot at the title of Sole Survivor. Angelina breaks down her approach heading into the game, how being a mom and entrepreneur brings a new flavor to her gameplay, why her “BFF, friend, or foe” approach will guide her alliances, and how she handles being labeled “chaotic.” Aubry discusses her surprise at being invited back, what she's learned from her three previous seasons, and how she aims to play with more self-awareness, adaptability, and focus on one-on-one connections. Both women weigh in on their perceptions of fellow castaways, discussing new era strategists, obvious threats, and the push and pull between loyalty and gameplay. Angelina ranks her cast as BFF, friend, or foe in a candid alliances game, revealing beef, admiration, and strategic wariness, especially when it comes to winners and new era players. Aubry shares how being blindsided in Edge of Extinction changed her approach, and why she's focused on staying grounded and present this time around. Both discuss leaving behind kids, running businesses, and the “joyful warrior” mindset they hope to channel on the island. Each interview explores Survivor's evolving meta, including whether recent winners should be targeted, which returnees are most dangerous, and how pre-existing relationships will shape alliances. Funny moments include Angelina's dream “summer solstice” camp party and her family rooting for Ozzy right alongside her. As the anticipation for season 50 builds, Mike asks: Can Angelina or Aubry climb higher on the Survivor ladder, or will new threats and old friends stand in their way? How will personal growth off the island translate into better game performance in Fiji's high-stakes returnee showdown?
