Bridge Builders: A Bifocal Life
Bifocals can confuse your brain, causing you to stumble. Doctor Power recommends getting your eyes checked regularly. Learn the poor eyesight risks you can avoid today!
In this blog post you will learn all there is to know about bifocal and progressive lenses so you can feel more confident in making decision about which type of lenses is best for you!
This is episode 224 recorded live at 365EduCon in Seattle on May 13th, 2022 where John & Jason go over the April 2022 Power BI updates and an update on the state of BIFocal.show & it's hosts. For show notes please visit www.bifocal.show
Life comes at you fast. Meta-Averse is taking a break. Hopefully not for long, but that remains to be seen. Some unexpected changes in the earn-a-living portion of my work life mean I need to shift focus, at least for awhile, away from the podcast and towards other tasks. I don't know exactly how long the shift will take, but I do know that while it's happening I won't be able to produce the pod on a regular basis. For a number of reasons, I'd rather call time-out than try to put episodes out when I can grab the time, and not on a regular schedule. So I'm calling time out, taking a break, and going on hiatus for a bit. Thank you to all of you who've listened, read, emailed, helped, or otherwise engaged with the pod. This episode captures some of my thoughts on what I've learned over the course of the first ten episodes — TL;DR: Cryptocurrencies aren't all that interesting to me right now, probably because I'm not big on risky, speculative investments. Web3 and the blockchain hold interesting potential for community building, organizing, and expanding our notions of what “assets” and “identity” mean online. But, personally, out of all of this stuff, I'm most interested in the potential of Augmented and Extended Reality (AR/XR). There's a lot of science behind current explorations of what VR sessions can do to a person's brain and body, and as VR hardware becomes lighter, cheaper, and more powerful, I'm optimistic in the potential of the tech to further human well-being. Similar technologies also hold promise in the realm of so-called “AR Smart Glasses,” that can dynamically layer data over a person's field of vision, reacting dynamically to both the user's environment (eg, Serving as tour guide in a museum or on a walking tour, Showing turn-by-turn navigation directions in a driver or cyclist's field of view, etc), and data coming from external networks (Showing incoming messages akin to a phone screen embedded in your glasses, et al). Personally, I've long been interested in AR/VR/XR, and subscribed to the notion that while VR will likely remain a “niche” technology, AR has serious mainstream potential. I'm keeping an eye on two potential watershed moments in the field that may be on the horizon: The launch of Apple's mythical smart glasses. Apple has a track record of pushing emergent consumer tech into the mainstream. I'll leave it at that.The evolution of dynamic vision correction technology. If and when I can replace my progressive vision lenses (aka Bifocals) with tech that can sense where I'm looking and dial up the best Rx for my eyes, on the fly … well, sign me up! Couple that with AR-style data in the field of view, and we could be looking at a game-changer. Several companies have filed for patents, and even launched pre-order concepts along these lines, so I'm remaining cautiously, excitedly, optimistic on this front. There's plenty to keep tabs on, remain skeptical of, and get excited about when it comes to the metaverse, Web3, and XR. So stay tuned, keep learning, and remind yourself to use all of this new tech to further well-being for all. I'll see you on the other side, hopefully sooner than later! This is a public episode.

In our most chaotic episode yet, we provide some meaningful advice such as: “when you feel bad, don't feel as bad.”

Paul Harvey - Bicycle Bank Robber (Bifocal Bandit)
Jon Schneck,longtime guitarist for Relient K,checks in today to chat about the band's forthcoming tour which touches down at the TLA on South Street in Philadelphia March 21, 2022. Schneck shares about family, faith, his marketing & business consulting company (Bifocal, found at www.bifocal.co), fantasy sports, his Rubik's Cube skills and more including RK songs. More info can be found at www.jonathanschneck.com and relientk.com. We're also glad to have Katie J. Trent be part of the show regarding her new book Dishing Up Devotions--36 Faith-Building Activities for Homeschooling Families. Each chapter includes a Scripture passage, brief story/thoughts from everyday life, a prayer, an affirmation, family activity, and baking buddies section featuring delicious recipes such as "set apart peanut butter chocolate chip cookies," "mini lemon loaves," "humble crumble pie," and "upside down apple tart" (chapter 14 which revolves around God's faithfulness). The book is very flexible and can be used in a curriculum-like manner or simply as a reference/family one-off even for those who have no homeschooling background. Tim caps off the show with a brief update on Victoria Joy (his daughter with special needs) and her spinal fusion surgery. Thank you for your prayers! God is answering them. More are needed if you're up for it--for continued healing & for wisdom for Tim & his wife Tina to know how to best care for and love Tori Joy in this next season of life.
