Podcasts about binaries

This week, it's Coco & Cody Dahler while Nish is away at the Fringe! With the recent, shocking news of Jason Arday's death, they're joined by broadcaster and writer Natasha Devon to reflect on the role of legacy media, and where the line is drawn between public interest and pile ons. Also: is Britain living through a ‘nuance drought'? Coco, Cody, and Natasha wrestle with the decline of the ‘critical friend' perspective, and ask how we can bring back the grey area when people are encouraged to pick a side–not just in politics, but wider society. And when pain is preferred to certainty, is Farage the devil we know? They discuss ideological fault lines, false binaries, social media bans, and burning everything down…USEFUL LINKSIf you have been affected by any of the issues raised during this episode, you can call the Samaritans on 116 123 or visit www.samaritans.org Pre-order Natasha's book here: https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-nuance-drought/natasha-devon/9781837733170 Petition demanding a public inquiry into Jason Arday's death: https://goodlawproject.org/petition/jason-arday-letter/ ‘Farage Fest' AI music video: https://x.com/reformparty_uk/status/2089464382925205526 CHECK OUT THESE DEALS FROM OUR SPONSORS VANTA: https://www.vanta.com/PSTUKSHOPIFY: https://www.shopify.co.uk/podsavetheukPod Save the UK is an Intelligence Squared production for Crooked Media.Don't forget you can get in touch!

Irregular, der Evaluierungsdienstleister hinter den Containment-Vorfällen bei OpenAI, Anthropic und Meta, hat ein Postmortem veröffentlicht. Für uns eines der vagesten und widersprüchlichsten, das wir je gelesen haben. Alle Vorfälle werden als "not materially separate incidents" in einen Topf geworfen, ein paar Absätze später ist dann doch von verschiedenen Organisationen die Rede. Keine Incident-Anzahl, keine Zeitpunkte, keine Aussage dazu, ob betroffene Drittfirmen informiert wurden. Dazu diskutieren wir, wie unabhängig ein Dienstleister sein kann, dessen drei größte Kunden genau die Labs sind, deren Modelle ausgebrochen sind.Max bringt ein Update zum Trivy-Angriff: Fünf Monate nach dem ursprünglichen Vorfall sehen wir immer noch Folgeschäden. TeamPCP hatte Binaries und Version-Tags manipuliert, sodass der Schwachstellen-Scanner selbst zum Credential-Stealer wurde. Daraus wurde CanisterWorm, daraus 141 kompromittierte NPM-Pakete, daraus die LiteLLM-Kompromittierung – auf der Opferliste stehen Roku, Nvidia, Orange, Boeing und Splunk. Fast niemand überwacht die eigenen Security-Tools.Zum Schluss der Cyberangriff auf die Berliner Verwaltung: Betroffen sind die Senatsverwaltungen für Stadtentwicklung sowie Mobilität und Verkehr, beide seit Freitag vom Landesnetz isoliert. LKA, Staatsanwaltschaft und BSI ermitteln. Zu Entry Vector und angeblichem Datenabfluss halten wir uns bewusst zurück, solange nur anonyme Quellen zitiert werden.Das Postmortem von Irregular (Original)https://www.irregular.com/research/addressing-recent-incidents-ongoing-findings-and-path-forwardKritik am Irregular-Postmortem (The Record)https://therecord.media/irregular-ai-hacking-model-blogIrregular schweigt zu weiteren Betroffenen (The Record)https://therecord.media/irregular-ai-security-company-incidentsDrei Labs, ein Dienstleister – die Evaluierungslücke (TNW)https://thenextweb.com/news/irregular-ai-testing-vendor-openai-anthropic-meta-breachesWenn der Safety-Test zum Safety-Risiko wird (TechCrunch)https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/09/the-ai-safety-test-is-becoming-a-safety-risk/MiniShai-Hulud / TeamPCP NPM-Kampagne (StepSecurity)https://www.stepsecurity.io/blog/mini-shai-hulud-is-back-a-self-spreading-supply-chain-attack-hits-the-npm-ecosystemOffizielle Mitteilung der Senatskanzlei Berlinhttps://www.berlin.de/rbmskzl/aktuelles/pressemitteilungen/2026/pressemitteilung.1703898.phpCyberangriff auf Berliner Landesnetz (heise online)https://www.heise.de/news/Cyberattacke-auf-Berliner-Verwaltung-Ermittlungen-laufen-11416539.htmlKrisensitzung, Datenabfluss, betroffene Verwaltungen (Tagesspiegel)https://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/wir-sind-praktisch-arbeitsunfahig-hackerangriff-auf-berliner-senatsverwaltungen-15952358.html

A wide-ranging conversation about identity, therapy, psychedelics, and artificial intelligence. He shares how his own origin story shaped his understanding of narrative agency, self-knowledge, and the limits of expert systems. The discussion also digs into the promise and risks of combining EMDR, ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, and AI in therapeutic work. MARK A. MICHAELS, a writer and conceptual artist. Mark's work examines fundamental paradigm dilemmas in both traditional psychotherapy and contemporary psychedelic therapy. In his forthcoming preprint, BINARIES, MULTITUDES, AND BEYOND, Mark focuses the lens on his own journey and uses narrative analysis and critique to explore how authority, expertise, and healing are currently defined. https://markamichaels.com/about/ Key topics In this episode, Mark Michaels explains why he calls himself an "uncontrolled experiment" and how being conceived through artificial insemination shaped his worldview. The conversation covers the secrecy and social shame around sperm donation, infertility, and the long-term effects of not knowing one's biological origins. Mark describes the eight-year process of uncovering his biological father through research and DNA testing, and how that discovery changed his sense of self. He connects that origin story to his interest in identity, narrative agency, psychotherapy, and the promises and limits of science. Mark discusses his early exposure to therapy as a child and his teenage experimentation with LSD, including an early bad trip and later renewed interest in psychedelics. The episode centers on his recent treatment program combining EMDR, ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, and AI-assisted reflection after a severe post-divorce mental health crisis. Mark argues that ketamine-assisted EMDR can accelerate therapeutic work by making clients more open and reducing psychological defenses. He is sharply critical of therapy culture when it becomes passive, overly rigid, or unwilling to share power with clients. The conversation examines the shortcomings of therapist training, especially when practitioners cling to one modality and fail to support client-led exploration. Mark and the hosts discuss the "wild west" state of psychedelic therapy, including concerns about over-medicalization, bad actors, and unregulated practice. The AI section focuses on both usefulness and danger, including hallucinated facts, false confidence, "kissing my butt" responses, and the risk of reinforcing poor psychological ideas. Mark explains that AI is best used as a high-speed organizer and drafting tool, but only if the user already has enough subject knowledge to challenge errors. The episode closes with Mark encouraging people in crisis to get help, evaluate whether therapy is actually working, and seek support rather than enduring alone.   To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support.

In this episode, we're challenging one of the most common assumptions in modern spirituality: that light is inherently good, darkness is inherently evil, and our spiritual paths should always move toward one while avoiding the other.Together, we explore how these binaries shape the way we think about deities, magic, death work, shadow work, healing, and even ourselves. What happens when we stop viewing darkness as something to fear? What if light isn't always gentle, and darkness isn't always harmful?Join us as we unpack the importance of unlearning spiritual binaries and embracing a more balanced, nuanced approach to practice, one that leaves room for complexity, curiosity, and a deeper relationship with the divine.This path isn't about perfection; it's about presence.

Algol does something amazing. Every 2.9 days, the star fades to just one-third of its usual brightness. In centuries past, the stars were thought to be unchanging. A star that changed so blatantly was a bit scary. So it was given a name to match: “Algol” comes from an Arabic phrase that means “head of the demon.” But the star’s odd behavior isn’t scary it all – Algol fades as the result of eclipses. The system consists of three stars. Two of them form a tight binary. The members of the binary orbit each other once every 2.9 days. We see the system edge-on, so the two stars eclipse each other. One star is much brighter than the other. When the fainter star crosses in front of it, the system fades dramatically. When the bright star covers up the faint one, though, the difference is tiny – much too subtle to see with the eye alone. Astronomers have cataloged hundreds of eclipsing binaries. And the eclipses are important. They reveal the relative sizes and masses of the two stars, details about their orbit, and more. So there’s nothing to fear from these up-and-down star systems. Algol is low in the northeast at nightfall, in Perseus. It should be at its brightest tonight. The faint part of its cycle will happen during daylight for the next few cycles. It’ll be visible during nighttime later in the month. Sometimes, a star can change brightness all on its own, and we’ll have more about that tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

I've been so looking forward to sharing this conversation as it is an area that I am particularly passionate about. I feel very strongly that the way we think and talk about learning, teaching and education is so rooted in Behaviorism and Cognitivism and the dominant language of training and metaphors of the brain as a computer. And there is a still a widespread lack of awareness of the emerging insights of cognitive science - often called 4E cognitive science, referring to embodied, embedded, extended and enactive cognition. This is the idea that our understanding, thinking and learning in the world happen in our relationships with each other, our environments, the tools we use, and our bodies, not just as abstract representations in our brains.And there is no-one better to be talking about this with than Andrea Hiott who among other fantastic work, is the host of the Love and Philosophy channel and substack.All of her life, Andrea says, she has been motivated towards the same goal: "Finding ways for us to move beyond either/or mindsets, and to explore our multiplicity."Andrea is a philosopher, cognitive scientist and writer and is currently a researcher at numerous universities, she is also the author of various books, including Thinking Small and her latest book ‘Holding Paradox: the navigational approach to mind and consciousness' is out in 2026.Andrea's website: https://www.andreahiott.net/Andrea's Love and Philosophy channel: https://lovephilosophy.substack.com/Andrea's community philosophy Substack called Waymaking: https://communityphilosophy.substack.com/Just released: Andrea's latest paper on 'Radical Embodied Relation at any Scale, from Remembering to Navigating' - https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11245-025-10256-7Useful paper on 'What is 4E Cognitive Science?' by Cameron Alexander: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11097-025-10055-w

Guest Teacher Jazz McKinney celebrates C3's Pride Sunday with their teaching Liberation Through Fluidity: The Power of Seeing Beyond Binaries.

27 As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus. ~Galatians 3:27-28 This week, we celebrate PRIDE Sunday. While there are passages in the Bible that have been used to “clobber” our LGBTQIA+ siblings, there are also beautiful verses like the ones above that invite us to consider how the family of faith grows as God continues to speak to us. Paul writes to the church in Galatia about the inclusion of people not of Jewish faith in the early church. “There is no longer Jew or Greek,” he writes, challenging the binaries we impose on people. In 2025, our call to be an inclusive family of faith continues to grow as we listen to our still-speaking God, especially our growing need to affirm our LGBTQIA+ siblings. On Sunday, we will read Paul's passionate plea for inclusivity as we reflect on what it means for First Congregational Church to be an increasingly inclusive and affirming family of faith.

"You're either with us, or you're against us." False binaries tell us that there are only two possible outcomes when many different outcomes may be available to us, and we use them all the time to structure how we understand our world. Is this hurting our dating culture? In this episode, Megan and Steven discuss what false binaries are, how they show up in dating conversations, and how to interrogate your own to get to the root of what you actually want.

In the first part of the program, Nikki Morse, Noam Brown and Prince Jooveh talk about the album Bending the Bars, a project created via makeshift jail phone setups in order to uplift and amplify the voices of incarcerated musicians. Our guests discuss the myriad powers of music, from therapy to frontline reporting to bridges between rival gangs and political perspectives. They dive into the barriers and indeed the freedom in creating an album without the support or collaboration of the carceral system, and how their work can be, and indeed should be repeated by others across the prison industrial complex. Next up, journalist and organizer Jen Deerinwater joins the show again, this time to talk about indigiqueer identities, how colonization violently imposed the binary, missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, two spirits and relatives, and how this violence is inextricably linked to ecocide. Jen also uplifts the upcoming decolonized beatz, Indigenous world pride, a global event celebrating the powerful creativity of 2SLGBTQIA+ Indigenous artists, performers, and storytellers coming up in late may in Washington DC.

In this unforgettable Full Frontal of What's Your Position, we sit down with the incomparable Jessica Lynn—international speaker, educator, and trans rights advocate whose personal story has changed laws, hearts, and minds around the world. With raw vulnerability and unapologetic brilliance, Jessica opens up about her decades-long fight for truth, identity, and justice—including her high-profile custody battle that became a lightning rod in the global conversation around transgender rights.   We explore her evolution from a life lived in hiding to one of radical visibility, and how her scientific knowledge, emotional intelligence, and deep compassion have made her one of the most sought-after voices in gender education today.   Fewer than 30% of trans adults over 50 say they have strong support systems. Jessica is changing that—one conversation, one courtroom, and one country at a time.   This episode is honest, intimate, and full of the kind of truth that lingers long after the mic goes off. Whether you're questioning, learning, or unlearning, Jessica's story will move you to think deeper, love harder, and show up louder. Check out her website here: Jessica's Website

We talk a lot about — and when I say 'we,' I mean the wider queer community — how upsetting it is that queer bars and clubs are closing at an accelerated rate. But I think the bigger tragedy is the disappearance of queer cafés.And maybe it's wrong to pit them against each other, but queer cafés offer that beautiful intermediate step. They're not as full-on or intimidating as a bar or a club, and they're places where you can just be. There's no pressure to perform, no need to match the thump of a bassline — just you, your overpriced oat flat white, and the comforting hum of conversations that sound a little more like home.One of the absolute best queer cafés that ever existed — and I won't hear any counterarguments — was First Out Café in Central London. Before it closed in 2011 to make way for yet another railway construction project, it was a sanctuary. A place where you could nervously nurse a tea while pretending to read the free gay magazines that used to exist, all the while sneaking glances at the other queers who had found refuge there too.It's also where today's guest, drag king extraordinaire Mr Wesley Dykes, took his first tentative steps into queerdom. Growing up between Lagos and South London, Wesley navigated the complexities of identity, family expectations, and self-acceptance. And when that weight felt a little too heavy, First Out Café was there — offering a cup of tea and the reassuring presence of a community.Other episodes about First Out Cafe'The First Gay Place That I Went Inside...' - with Alex Iantaffi from Gender Stories PodcastFirst Out Cafe, London (with Ali Brumfitt)Follow meInstagram: ⁠⁠www.instagram.com/lostspacespod⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.facebook.com/lostspacespod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@lostspacespod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up to the Queer Word newsletter: https://queer-word.beehiiv.com/subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠Support meBuy Me A Coffee: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/lostspacespod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow my guestInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrwesleydykes/

Miranda Ferriss Jones brings a refreshing blend of storytelling, activism, and creativity to this episode. With her upcoming concert, Spiral Bound, she discusses her passion for challenging societal binaries and feminine identity through her music and performances. We dive deep into how her upbringing in Vermont, with a Black father and a white mother, shaped her perspective and inspired her to explore themes of race, gender, and identity in her work. Miranda also opens up about her experience with ADHD, and how it fuels her creativity, helping her balance multiple projects, motherhood, and her commitment to activism. Miranda's journey is a testament to the power of storytelling and the importance of being true to oneself. She shares the story of how her father's passion for jazz and her mother's love for Motown influenced her artistic path, and how her work continues to be rooted in her lived experiences and the desire to see positive change in the world. Tune in to hear about her activism, her thoughts on societal binaries, and the inspiration behind Spiral Bound. Miranda Ferriss Jones is a Vermont-born songwriter, theatrical storyteller, performer, and creativity/vocal coach whose work explores feminine identity and challenges societal binaries. She has four shows in development, including The Precipice, which received support from Bob Weir and was workshopped at Williamstown with Laura Benanti, who is also a creative producer on Miranda's song cycle Spiral Bound. Her other works include Edmonia, gearing up for a spring workshop, and Showing Up, which had readings at Middlebury College and Princeton University.

Today  we have a special show for fund drive co hosted by feminist Queer activists  Kate Raphael and Rae Abileah  who will talk to Jewish Feminist Queer  author, scholar  and activist  Judith Butler about two topics they have become famous for reshaping and making part of everyday discourse, that is  gender and anti-zionism .  If  somehow you are one of the few people who  haven't heard of  American philosopher,  gender studies scholar and anti zionist and Queer feminist activist Judith Butler   they have written over a dozen books including their seminal book Gender Trouble which came out in 1990 and which shook up the academic and political world with her redefinition of gender.  and they have been have been a major  influence on  political philosophy, ethics, and the fields of third-wave feminism,[2] queer theory,[3] and literary theory, and if they wasn't enough they  are also important to anti zionist activist and Queer activists since  to many in these movements they are  a huge force in support of these  movements. for Butler's  concept of gender as having  been constructed they have been seen as a threat throughout the modern world — to national security in Russia; to civilization, according to the Vatican; to the American traditional family; to protecting children from pedophilia and grooming, according to some conservatives and by Zionist they are excoriated as a defender of Hamas terrorism and banned from Israel. And to interview Judith  Butler we are very lucky to have two experienced Queer activists,  novelist, journalist, anarcha/feminist and queer activist and a long-time producer with  KPFA's  Women's Magazine Kate Raphael is  co housing with social change strategist and ordained  Jewish faith leader Rae Abileah  and they will be leading  our  conversation with Judith Butler today .  In the first half of the interview  Kate Raphael will talk to  Butler about their  newest book on gender “Whose Afraid of Gender” that looks at the right wings  utilization of gender to attack Queers, trans people  and women. And in the second half of the show Rae will talk  with  Butler about her  book “Parting Ways Jewishness and the Critique of Zionism” that came out in 2013  as well as  her thoughts about anti-zionism today.  The post Judith Butler – Challenging the right, gender binaries and Israeli settler colonialism appeared first on KPFA.

Tiffany Thompson is a unique human being. She's driven by curiosity, and that's going to come shining through in our conversation today. Tiffany weaves the analytic rigor of her early career as a CIA analyst with the explorative creativity of her recording artist career. So, to say she wears multiples hats or weaves multiple identities is probably an understatement. She is the founder and CEO of Artistic Leadership, which is a creative consultancy that uses the power of art to unlock creativity and connection. Creativity and connection are really what today's conversation is all about. How can you use a spark of curiosity to improve your ability to innovate, to create, to build something? That is really at the core of Tiffany's positioning, of her communication, of everything that she stands for. Tiffany had a number of amazing insights during our conversation. Some of them include: “I would consider the CIA to be a very creative and artistic place” (6:50). “People choose to work [at the CIA] because they're driven by mission” (7:10). “As an artist [at the CIA], I felt encouraged to explore the things I was curious about” (7:20). “I have always been somebody who loved creating with my friends” (13:40). “To have a lifelong friendship, you have to let it change” (20:10). “I'm never afraid of being the friend who leads the friendship. I actually find that to be an honor” (22:50). “Let's not hide the broken fractures, let's actually accentuate them” (28:40). “When we're in fix it mode, it's about speed and getting something done” (30:55). “When you shift into mending, curiosity really becomes that tool for understanding what it is you're trying to create” (31:10). “Binaries are rarely helpful, or perhaps real” (35:10). “At its core, [art] is a process” (36:25). “Novelty is such a powerful stimulant for our brain” (50:15). “We're not going to succeed alone. We're going to have to work together” (53:25). “Part of being an artist is being a steward of your art form” (57:55). “Discipline, to me, has two parts: it has commitment, and it has craft” (1:00:40). “Craft is a word heavy with intention” (1:01:40).

Today we are replaying one of our most popular episodes from last year with Jeremy Giffon. I spend all my time trying to find people who have some “singularity” to them. People who seem like they can do an N of 1 something. Having spent many days with Jeremy, he strikes me as one of those people. He was the first employee and general partner at private equity firm/holding company Tiny, which buys and holds internet and technology-focused businesses. Prior to that, he was on the founding team of MediaCore, which was acquired by Workday. The focus of our discussion is on esoteric opportunities that exist in private markets and how misaligned incentives and coordination problems create special situations for people like Jeremy to invest in. The rest of the conversation is wide-ranging and covers everything from compensation advice to meeting your heroes. Please enjoy my discussion with Jeremy Giffon.

What roles do our left and right brains play in creativity and mysticism? How are our spiritual beliefs and practices shaped by our cosmologies? How might we shape a future beyond either/or dogmas?To immerse in the work of Xenia Viray is to dissolve boundaries between worlds, to question arbitrary distinctions between disciplines, and to delight in the heart as a sacred alchemist in service of the mystery.In this conversation, Xenia and I explored the poetic capacities of the intellectual mind – drawing connections between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, individualism and collectivism, productivity and creativity. We also sprinkled in our personal stories and our respective relationships with meaning-making systems.Here's Xenia's bio:Xenia Marie Ross Viray (she/they) is an imagination healer, frequency artist, and creativity catalyst with a focus on experiential learning containers and writing. She is the eldest of three sisters, and her name means kindness to strangers. Born as a brick-and-mortar fashion business, Myths of Creation (the name of Xenia's collective body of work) is a container for experiments, art, writing, and gatherings at the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and meaning-making. Xenia's work reconnects communities, ideas, and art forms that are traditionally siloed to enrich the pool of imaginal possibility. Her offerings are designed to help spirited innovators anchor their natural genius into form and include Imaginal Temple, a creative mystical mentorship, the Garden of the Imaginal Substack, and an evolving cornucopia of courses, workshops, and 1:1 sessions which you can find at MythsofCreation.com and @mythsofcreation on IG.Join Xenia's offering Creation Portals, a 3-month workshop series starting on June 11th. We mentioned Iain McGilchrist's TedTalk on The Divided Brain.

Last year, we had some predictions about what 2023 would bring. How'd we do? There's some news to cover from the past two weeks, like the release of the Fedora Asahi spin, Wayland *not* breaking everything, and the very cursed diagonal monitor mode that only Linux supports. SystemD adds encrypted boot support, Chimera OS might be worth a look for your HTPC, and the Fedora stearing committe is weighing a round of interesting changes for Fedora 40, like unifying /bin and /sbin. Then we cover predictions for 2024, like the importance of Ubuntu's next LTS, AMD's GPU outlook, the future of Cosmic, and how exciting 2024 is going to be for desktop Linux users. We cover our favorite tips from the year, and sneak in a couple more aliases you might want to use. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/3veYhix and join us next time for a whole new year of Linux!

How can we know the difference between a yes, an absolutely yes, a maybe, a probably not, and a no? And what do we do with the simple one line advice that doesn't always seem to apply? Listen in.

My guest today is Jeremy Giffon. I spend all my time trying to find people who have some “singularity” to them. People who seem like they can do an N of 1 something. Having spent many days with Jeremy recently, he strikes me as one of those people. He was the first employee and general partner at private equity firm, Tiny, which buys and holds internet and technology focused businesses. Prior to that, he was on the founding team of MediaCore, which was acquired by Workday. The focus of our discussion is about esoteric opportunities that exist in private markets. How misaligned incentives and co-ordination problems create special situations for people like Jeremy to invest in. The rest of the conversation is wide-ranging and covers everything from compensation advice to meeting your heroes. Please enjoy my discussion with Jeremy Giffon.
