THE FDA FINALLY REMOVED THE BLACK BOX WARNING on both systemic estrogen and low-dose vaginal estrogen — and it's one of the biggest wins in women's health in decades.For years, millions of women avoided hormone therapy because of outdated, frightening warnings that did NOT match the scientific evidence. This led to unnecessary suffering — from painful sex to recurrent UTIs to fear-based avoidance of safe, effective treatments.In this episode, Dr. Carolyn Moyers (Board-Certified OB/GYN + Menopause Specialist) breaks down the NEW FDA labeling, the real data on hormone therapy safety, and why vaginal estrogen is one of the safest and most life-changing treatments in menopause care.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jessica Talisman, founder of Contextually and creator of the Ontology Pipeline, about the deep connections between knowledge management, library science, and the emerging world of AI systems. Together they explore how controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and metadata shape meaning for both humans and machines, why librarianship has lessons for modern tech, and how cultural context influences what we call “knowledge.” Jessica also discusses the rise of AI librarians, the problem of “AI slop,” and the need for collaborative, human-centered knowledge ecosystems. You can learn more about her work at Ontology Pipeline and find her writing and talks on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman to discuss Contextually, ontologies, and how controlled vocabularies ground scalable systems.05:00 They compare philosophy's ontology with information science, linking meaning, categorization, and sense-making for humans and machines.10:00 Jessica explains why SQL and Postgres can't capture knowledge complexity and how neuro-symbolic systems add context and interoperability.15:00 The talk turns to library science's split from big data in the 1990s, metadata schemas, and the FAIR principles of findability and reuse.20:00 They discuss neutrality, bias in corporate vocabularies, and why “touching grass” matters for reconciling internal and external meanings.25:00 Conversation shifts to interpretability, cultural context, and how Western categorical thinking differs from China's contextual knowledge.30:00 Jessica introduces process knowledge, documentation habits, and the danger of outsourcing how-to understanding.35:00 They explore knowledge as habit, the tension between break-things culture and library design thinking, and early AI experiments.40:00 Libraries' strategic use of AI, metadata precision, and the emerging role of AI librarians take focus.45:00 Stewart connects data labeling, Surge AI, and the economics of good data with Jessica's call for better knowledge architectures.50:00 They unpack content lifecycle, provenance, and user context as the backbone of knowledge ecosystems.55:00 The talk closes on automation limits, human-in-the-loop design, and Jessica's vision for collaborative consulting through Contextually.Key InsightsOntology is about meaning, not just data structure. Jessica Talisman reframes ontology from a philosophical abstraction into a practical tool for knowledge management—defining how things relate and what they mean within systems. She explains that without clear categories and shared definitions, organizations can't scale or communicate effectively, either with people or with machines.Controlled vocabularies are the foundation of AI literacy. Jessica emphasizes that building a controlled vocabulary is the simplest and most powerful way to disambiguate meaning for AI. Machines, like people, need context to interpret language, and consistent terminology prevents the “hallucinations” that occur when systems lack semantic grounding.Library science predicted today's knowledge crisis. Stewart and Jessica trace how, in the 1990s, tech went down the path of “big data” while librarians quietly built systems of metadata, ontologies, and standards like schema.org. Today's AI challenges—interoperability, reliability, and information overload—mirror problems library science has been solving for decades.Knowledge is culturally shaped. Drawing from Patrick Lambe's work, Jessica notes that Western knowledge systems are category-driven, while Chinese systems emphasize context. This cultural distinction explains why global AI models often miss nuance or moral voice when trained on limited datasets.Process knowledge is disappearing. The West has outsourced its “how-to” knowledge—what Jessica calls process knowledge—to other countries. Without documentation habits, we risk losing the embodied know-how that underpins manufacturing, engineering, and even creative work.Automation cannot replace critical thinking. Jessica warns against treating AI as “room service.” Automation can support, but not substitute, human judgment. Her own experience with a contract error generated by an AI tool underscores the importance of review, reflection, and accountability in human–machine collaboration.Collaborative consulting builds knowledge resilience. Through her consultancy, Contextually, Jessica advocates for “teaching through doing”—helping teams build their own ontologies and vocabularies rather than outsourcing them. Sustainable knowledge systems, she argues, depend on shared understanding, not just good technology.

In the Pulse of Franconia: A View of the Nuremberg Underground Scene Far away from the commercial glitter world, where honest music beats to the rhythm of the city, we illuminate the pulsating Nuremberg underground scene. Our expedition leads us deep into the electronic hemisphere of the Franconian metropolis, in search of the "hottest shit"—the authentic and unadulterated sounds that define the true sound of Nuremberg. Amidst the urban fabric, away from mainstream hotspots like Die Rakete or Hirsch—which serve as established venues—lies an oasis of creative independence: the collective nb grooves. This artist collective has made it its mission to consolidate the underground culture and give it a common platform, always focusing on local players and the interplay of different genres and crews. nb grooves is more than just an event organizer; it is a center of gravity for those whose roots are deeply anchored in the underground. Whether it's the unconventional beats of Ivan le Mutant or Trip Inc, the profound soundscapes of Wartenberg, or the energetic sets of Stefan Riegauf and Hannoi—they all embody the essential energy and the courage for the niche that distinguishes this scene. They create a counter-world where the music itself is the headliner. Rts.fm is taking a close look at these currents. We inspect the scene in its purest, most original form, searching for the direct, unadulterated, and true musical expression of this city. It is a sonic retrospective, an archaeological search for the frequencies that shape Nuremberg and its Franconian surroundings beyond the popular buzz. Our goal is to peel back the layers and give a voice to those artists whose works most authentically reflect the raw and passionate soul of electronic music. Stefan Riegauf The Nuremberg native, born in Schwabach in 1972, turned his love for music into a profession early on. His passion for vinyl and electronic music led to his first steps as DJ Solaris at the legendary Prime Rose Club in Nuremberg. In 1996, he opened his own record store, "Recordstore," together with Stefan Volkert (Warren). With him, he also organized events like "SoundLab" at Desi for several years and formed the DJ duo Warren & Solaris. From 2003, he was the literal heart of the Nuremberg techno and house club "Die Rakete" (The Rocket), which he successfully co-managed until 2020. As a Rakete resident, his warm and organic sound, somewhere between House and Techno, evolved there. With empathy for the dancefloor, an instinct for the right track at the right time, and influences from Dub, Acid, and Electronica, he always manages to span a large arc across his sets. For his own event series "Super Klub," he invited fellow DJs such as Levon Vincent, Subb-An, Gerd Janson, Barnt, and many more. His monthly event series "Mitkete" at the "Mitte Soundbar" was also a constant fixture of Nuremberg's nightlife for years. Since 2014, he has been releasing tracks produced with Markus Homm on labels such as Bondage, Cyclic, and Brise, including remixes by Mihai Popoviciu and Schlepp Geist. With nearly 30 years of experience behind the decks, he repeatedly manages to create surprising moments and transmit a positive vibe.

E in questa corsa alla costruzione di data center per il funzionamento dell'intelligenza artificiale la Cina potrebbe vincere la corsa proprio perché avrà energia a basso costo ottenuta grazie alle rinnovabili. Un esempio che anche l'Italia dovrebbe seguire vista sua possibilità di sfruttare risorse come il solare.

Aditi Bhalla's story reads like a cautionary tale about high achievement. A specialist prosthodontist who ticked every box—academic success, specialist training, teaching positions—she found herself breaking down in surgery in 2018, asking the question so many high achievers eventually face: is this it? After developing De Quervain's tenosynovitis from repetitive movements and stress, Aditi was forced to step away from dentistry. What followed was an unexpected journey into spirituality, meditation, and ultimately, retraining as an integrative psychotherapist. Now she works predominantly with dentists and other professionals who've achieved everything they thought they wanted but still feel lost, anxious, and burnt out. Her transformation from perfectionist dentist to spiritual guide offers a roadmap for those struggling with the same questions she once faced.In This Episode00:02:15 - High achievers feeling lost 00:03:10 - The perfectionism plateau 00:04:10 - Growing up as the brainy kid 00:06:35 - School captain to dental specialist 00:08:15 - Choosing prosthodontics 00:10:20 - Breaking down in surgery 00:11:45 - Discovering spirituality 00:14:30 - The spiritual awakening path 00:21:00 - Retraining as a psychotherapist 00:28:00 - Meditation fundamentals 00:32:25 - Breathwork techniques 00:42:00 - Self-compassion versus weakness 00:44:00 - Contentment and ambition coexisting 00:46:20 - The wrist injury that changed everything 00:57:15 - Therapy versus dentistry 01:00:00 - Understanding spirituality 01:03:10 - Blackbox thinking 01:12:10 - The Wellbeing Hub 01:14:35 - Fantasy dinner party 01:16:20 - Last days and legacyAbout Aditi BhallaAditi is a former specialist prosthodontist who trained in India before completing her specialist training at King's College London.

Can we automatically and provably quantify and control the information leakage from a black-box processing? From a statistical inference standpoint, in this talk, I will start from a unified framework to summarize existing privacy definitions based on input-independent indistinguishability and unravel the fundamental challenges in crafting privacy proof for general data processing. Yet, the landscape shifts when we gain access to the (still possibly black-box) secret generation. By carefully leveraging its entropy, we unlock the black-box analysis. This breakthrough enables us to automatically "learn" the underlying inference hardness for an adversary to recover arbitrarily-selected sensitive features fully through end-to-end simulations without any algorithmic restrictions. Meanwhile, a set of new information-theoretical tools will be introduced to efficiently minimize additional noise perturbation assisted with sharpened adversarially adaptive composition. I will also unveil the win-win situation between the privacy and stability for simultaneous algorithm improvements. Concrete applications will be given in diverse domains, including privacy-preserving machine learning on image classification and large language models, side-channel leakage mitigation and formalizing long-standing heuristic data obfuscations.

Welcome back to the 256th episode of The Cup which is our a weekly (give or take, TBD, these are unprecedented times) performing arts talk show presented by Cup of Hemlock Theatre. With the theatres on a come back we offer a mix of both reviews of live shows we've seen and continued reviews of prophet productions! For our 256th episode we have a new artist interview. This particular conversation is between our Co-Artistic Producer Mackenzie Horner and the Director, Costume and Production Designer of the production Romeo Pimp which we recently covered and the Artistic Director of The King Black Box Sophie Ann Rooney. Together they unpack Sophie's creative process — from conceptualizing and designing a piece to bringing Romeo Pimp to life.

Alex Buciu's story reads like something from another era. From endodontics in Romania to amalgams in Northern Ireland, his path through dentistry mirrors a deeper journey through loss, resilience and reinvention. When your mum dies at 14 and you're watching it happen, something shifts inside. When you arrive in a new country with £3,100 in your pocket—half of it borrowed—you learn what matters. Alex talks about communication trumping clinical skill every time, about choosing kindness when you're capable of violence, and why he'd rather be a brilliant generalist than a mediocre anything-else. There's philosophy here, hard-won wisdom, and the kind of honesty that only comes from someone who's genuinely fought for everything they have.In This Episode00:02:15 - Qualifying in Romania and building an endodontics practice 00:03:10 - The shock of NHS dentistry 00:08:40 - Why leave Romania 00:18:45 - Finding mentor Kieran 00:20:05 - Arriving with £3,100 00:26:00 - How to choose courses wisely 00:26:45 - The occlusion eureka moment 00:32:05 - Why not endodontics in the UK 00:37:35 - Moving to Peterborough 00:42:45 - Building from zero patients 00:44:00 - Favourite courses and lecturers 00:52:40 - Communication beats clinical skill 00:58:15 - Growing up under Ceaușescu 01:08:25 - Losing his mother at 14 01:14:20 - Volunteering in trauma 01:17:10 - Near-death experiences 01:24:50 - Blackbox thinking 01:35:40 - Fantasy dinner party 01:41:55 - Last days and legacyAbout Alex BuciuAlex qualified in Romania in 2004 and built a successful endodontics-focused practice before moving to Northern Ireland in 2018, later settling in Peterborough. He works as a private associate, focusing on restorative dentistry, occlusion and TMD, with a particular passion for continuous education and patient communication. Despite significant personal challenges, including arriving in the UK with minimal resources, he's built a reputation as an excellence-driven clinician who believes communication matters more than clinical perfection.

There's something about meeting someone who's truly hungry to learn. Payman spotted it straight away when Sanaa Harroussi walked into his Mini Smile Makeover course—that rare fire in the belly. But here's the thing: Sanaa's journey from Rabat to Paris to West London isn't just about collecting qualifications. It's about a woman who aced the ORE first time, built a fifteen-year career in the same practice, and then had everything turned upside down when her second son received a six-month life expectancy. What follows is a masterclass in resilience, the art of not taking anything for granted, and learning when perfectionism helps and when it hurts.In This Episode00:00:45 - Introduction and first impressions 00:01:25 - Growing up in Rabat 00:02:20 - Competitive entry into dental school 00:02:50 - How dentistry happened 00:03:50 - The serious student 00:06:25 - Postgraduate training in Paris 00:07:15 - Paris versus London 00:09:20 - The ORE challenge 00:11:20 - Blackbox thinking 00:17:10 - Finding her first job 00:20:30 - NHS reality check 00:21:55 - Patient expectations 00:24:25 - Family life begins 00:26:30 - The diagnosis 00:29:45 - Fighting for treatment 00:32:00 - Life with disability 00:33:40 - One day at a time 00:38:20 - The improvement obsession 00:40:00 - Retreats and self-care 00:40:30 - Clinical loves and methods 00:43:25 - Rubber dams and labs 00:48:40 - The digital question 00:51:10 - Invisalign journey 00:57:15 - Fantasy dinner party 00:58:45 - Last days and legacyAbout Sanaa HarroussiSanaa Harroussi trained in dentistry in Morocco before completing postgraduate studies in prosthodontics in Paris.

Clive kicks off in Belfast's Black Box as the Belfast International Arts Festival begins to light up venues around the city. Poet Brian Bilston is in town after putting some of his poetry to music with the help of The Catenary Wires. US folk and blues musician Chris Smither tells all about his musical journey spanning over six decades. Someone else who knows a lot about blues as of recent is opera singer Jolene O'Hara, who has taken on the role of County Down musician and 'godmother of British blues' Ottilie Patterson in the one-woman show, Ottilie. Plus, Teresa Livingstone has plenty of embarrassing stories from former jobs and her own work in stand-up, so she's channelling it all into gathering the same from other comedians in her podcast Scundered.Belfast's AOIBHA reflects on her year of her debut EP Insignificance, and folk-duo Stick in the Wheel chat about their current tour as they bring a bit of Tudor-era satire with their track The Cramp.Presenter: Clive Anderson Producer: Anthony McKeeA BBC Audio Northern Ireland production for BBC Radio 4.

What happens when a complaint over a scale and polish changes everything? For Alif Moosajee, a GDC investigation became the catalyst that transformed him from a dentist flying under the radar into the owner of Oakdale, one of Leicester's most distinctive private practices. This conversation charts his path from undergraduate struggles with imposter syndrome through the crucible of regulatory scrutiny to building a seven-surgery practice rooted in authentic patient care. Along the way, Alif shares hard-won insights about guided implantology, the perils of well poisoners, and why breaking kayfabe—wrestling's term for dropping the performance—might be the most honest thing you can do for your patients. It's a story about choosing growth over comfort, one calculated risk at a time.In This Episode00:01:00 - The Smiling Dentist origins 00:02:20 - Tony Robbins and the power of physiology 00:15:00 - Undergraduate struggles and fixed mindset 00:16:25 - The GDC complaint that changed everything 00:22:20 - Buying Oakdale practice 00:26:40 - Growing up in Slough and choosing dentistry 00:31:55 - Building the practice vision 00:35:20 - Firing the well poisoner 00:38:30 - Custodian of the vision 00:47:00 - The unmeasurable things that matter most 00:53:30 - Surprise and delight tactics 01:00:25 - Contentment versus ambition 01:06:00 - The Tony Robbins business mastery mistake 01:09:00 - Dark days in practice ownership 01:19:00 - Blackbox thinking 01:24:15 - Switching to fully guided implants 01:28:30 - Fantasy dinner party 01:33:55 - Last days and legacyAbout Alif MoosajeeAlif Moosajee studied dentistry at Birmingham and owns Oakdale Dental in Leicester, a seven-surgery private practice where he focuses on implant dentistry and digital workflows.

Für manche Unternehmen in Deutschland hat sich die Unterbringung von Geflüchteten zum profitablen Geschäft entwickelt. Doch das geht auf Kosten der Allgemeinheit und zu Lasten der Geflüchteten, wie Recherchen von Till Uebelacker für das ARD Radiofeature zeigen. Im Gespräch mit Palina Milling erzählt der Investigativjournalist über den Verdrängungswettbewerb in der Flüchtlingsversorgung, die schleichende Verschärfung der Migrationspolitik und warum Flüchtlingsheime inzwischen nicht nur zur Cash-Cow, sondern auch zu einer Black-Box geworden sind.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jared Zoneraich, CEO and co-founder of PromptLayer, about how AI is reshaping the craft of software building. The conversation covers PromptLayer's role as an AI engineering workbench, the evolving art of prompting and evals, the tension between implicit and explicit knowledge, and how probabilistic systems are changing what it means to “code.” Stewart and Jared also explore vibe coding, AI reasoning, the black-box nature of large models, and what accelerationism means in today's fast-moving AI culture. You can find Jared on X @imjaredz and learn more or sign up for PromptLayer at PromptLayer.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop opens with Jared Zoneraich, who explains PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench and discusses reasoning, prompting, and Codex.05:00 – They explore implicit vs. explicit knowledge, how subject matter experts shape prompts, and why evals matter for scaling AI workflows.10:00 – Jared explains eval methodologies, backtesting, hallucination checks, and the difference between rigorous testing and iterative sprint-based prompting.15:00 – Discussion turns to observability, debugging, and the shift from deterministic to probabilistic systems, highlighting skill issues in prompting.20:00 – Jared introduces “LM idioms,” vibe coding, and context versus content—how syntax, tone, and vibe shape AI reasoning.25:00 – They dive into vibe coding as a company practice, cloud code automation, and prompt versioning for building scalable AI infrastructure.30:00 – Stewart reflects on coding through meditation, architecture planning, and how tools like Cursor and Claude Code are shaping AGI development.35:00 – Conversation expands into AI's cultural effects, optimism versus doom, and critical thinking in the age of AI companions.40:00 – They discuss philosophy, history, social fragmentation, and the possible decline of social media and liberal democracy.45:00 – Jared predicts a fragmented but resilient future shaped by agents and decentralized media.50:00 – Closing thoughts on AI-driven markets, polytheistic model ecosystems, and where innovation will thrive next.Key InsightsPromptLayer as AI Infrastructure – Jared Zoneraich presents PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench—a platform designed for builders, not researchers. It provides tools for prompt versioning, evaluation, and observability so that teams can treat AI workflows with the same rigor as traditional software engineering while keeping flexibility for creative, probabilistic systems.Implicit vs. Explicit Knowledge – The conversation highlights a critical divide between what AI can learn (explicit knowledge) and what remains uniquely human (implicit understanding or “taste”). Jared explains that subject matter experts act as the bridge, embedding human nuance into prompts and workflows that LLMs alone can't replicate.Evals and Backtesting – Rigorous evaluation is essential for maintaining AI product quality. Jared explains that evals serve as sanity checks and regression tests, ensuring that new prompts don't degrade performance. He describes two modes of testing: formal, repeatable evals and more experimental sprint-based iterations used to solve specific production issues.Deterministic vs. Probabilistic Thinking – Jared contrasts the old, deterministic world of coding—predictable input-output logic—with the new probabilistic world of LLMs, where results vary and control lies in testing inputs rather than debugging outputs. This shift demands a new mindset: builders must embrace uncertainty instead of trying to eliminate it.The Rise of Vibe Coding – Stewart and Jared explore vibe coding as a cultural and practical movement. It emphasizes creativity, intuition, and context-awareness over strict syntax. Tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor let engineers and non-engineers alike “feel” their way through building, merging programming with design thinking.AI Culture and Human Adaptation – Jared predicts that AI will both empower and endanger human cognition. He warns of overreliance on LLMs for decision-making and the coming wave of “AI psychosis,” yet remains optimistic that humans will adapt, using AI to amplify rather than atrophy critical thinking.A Fragmented but Resilient Future – The episode closes with reflections on the social and political consequences of AI. Jared foresees the decline of centralized social media and the rise of fragmented digital cultures mediated by agents. Despite risks of isolation, he remains confident that optimism, adaptability, and pluralism will define the next AI era.
Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Ken Fuller and Jeffrey Crecelius This week it was a pleasure to welcome Billy Sherwood to the YMP once again. We spoke to him just before a rehearsal at Mickey's Black Box rehearsal facility as the band prepared for the 2025 Fragile Tour of the US. Since that conversation, Yes have played 2 concerts. We spoke to Billy about the tour, his gear and the new Yes album. He was as gracious and open as usual - a great conversation that I know you will enjoy. Following the first concert on the tour, Mark and I got back together again to discuss the setlist. Clearly, if you don't like spoilers, you'll want to press stop on your device after the Billy interview to avoid hearing the specifics of what the band will be playing. What will the band be playing on this tour? Has Billy's kit changed? What is it like to play The Fish live?
