Je hersenen zijn in theorie beter en sneller in het verwerken van informatie dan een computer. Toch lijkt dat niet altijd zo. Wat nou als je die twee werelden combineert; je hersenen verbinden met een computer. Dan kom je uit bij een bedrijf als Zander Labs en hun CEO, Jonathan Zwaan, is te gast in Techzine Talks. We praten met hem over de deeptch van BCI, oftewel Brain-Computer Interfaces.   Als je de term Brain-Computer Interface hoort, denk je wellicht meteen aan het kunnen bedienen van computers met je brein. Dat is niet wat Zander Labs doet. Het gaat bij het platform dat dit bedrijf ontwikkelt om passieve Brain-Computer Interfaces. Dat houdt in dat er met behulp van EEG-scans van de hersenen een respons op bepaalde gebeurtenissen naar een computer gestuurd wordt. Het doel is om hiermee een reeks basisreacties te definiëren, die voor alle mensen gelden. De computer kan deze dan gebruiken als input voor een specifieke actie.De mogelijkheden van het koppelen van het menselijke brein en computers op deze manier heeft zonder meer veel potentie. Zo kan het een belangrijke rol spelen bij de ontwikkeling van Artificial General Intelligence, om een zijstraat te noemen. Eenvoudig is het echter niet, zo bespreken we in deze aflevering. Ook zitten er kanten aan die wellicht niet meteen wenselijk zijn. Die gaan we zeker niet uit de weg in dit gesprek.Een ding staat wat ons betreft vast, Zander Labs is een Nederlandse start-up die samen met partners weleens een grote impact op de wereld van computers en AI kan gaan hebben. Of dat ook gaat lukken, is vanzelfsprekend afwachten.

În cadrul unei conferințe de presă, președintele ales Donald Trump și-a reiterat ambițiile teritoriale, menționând Canalul Panama, Canada și Groenlanda. El nu a exclus ideea folosirii forței pentru a-și atinge obiectivele. Bluf sau intenții serioase? Presa internațională comentează. ”Trumpismul a fost adesea greșit reprezentat ca izolaționism. Dacă această tendință există într-o parte a dreptei americane, ea nu spune nimic despre ambițiile teritoriale pe care le nutrește președintele ales”, comentează Le Monde.Iar The New York Times constată că „niciodată un președinte american ales nu a amenințat atât de flagrant că va folosi forța pentru a extinde granițele teritoriale ale țării sale, din vremea lui William McKinley, care s-a angajat în războiul hispano-american la sfârșitul secolului al XIX-lea”.După cum transmite BBC, ”declarațiile au venit în timp ce fiul său, Donald Trump Jr, vizita Groenlanda.Înainte de a ajunge cu un avion privat în capitala Nuuk, Trump Jr a spus că merge într-o „excursie personală de o zi” pentru a vorbi cu oamenii și nu are planificate întâlniri cu oficialii guvernamentali.Întrebat despre vizita lui Trump Jr în Groenlanda, premierul danez Mette Frederiksen a declarat pentru televiziunea din țara sa că „Groenlanda aparține groenlandezilor” și că doar populația locală îi poate determina viitorul.Ea a spus că „Groenlanda nu este de vânzare”, dar a subliniat că Danemarca are nevoie de o cooperare strânsă cu SUA, un aliat al NATO”.The Wall Street Journal citează consilieri ai președintelui ales potrivit cărora declarațiile sale „nu trebuie luate la propriu”, președintele american încercând în principal să facă presiuni asupra țărilor în cauză pentru a obține rezultate economice sau câștiguri de securitate.„Promisiunea lui Trump de a anexa Canada” ar fi „doar o lăudăroșenie menită să pună presiune asupra guvernului înainte de negocierile comerciale cu Ottawa”, spun unii consilieri. În ceea ce privește amenințarea sa de a prelua Canalul Panama, a fost „un truc pentru a obține prețuri mai mici pentru navele americane care tranzitează. Obsesia lui de a dobândi Groenlanda urmărește să obțină acces la pământurile rare și să le refuze Chinei”, adaugă consilierii citați de cotidianul american.The Washington Post notează însă că, „în timp ce mulți consideră remarcile președintelui ales ca fiind trolling, pentru consilierii lui Trump ele fac parte dintr-un plan mai larg de a reduce influența Chinei și a Rusiei”. (Sursa: Courrier International)Ziarul italian La Stampa consideră, de partea sa, că remarcile lui Trump trebuie luate în serios.„Ele trebuie luate în serios pentru că Trump are convingerea, voința și mijloacele pentru a le pune în aplicare. Există puține constrângeri instituționale interne, nu are inhibiții personale și trebuie să acționeze rapid. (...) Trump nu a exclus în mod explicit nici constrângerea economică, nici intervenția militară. (...) Groenlanda aparține Danemarcei. Așa că a nu exclude intervenția militară înseamnă că, pentru noul președinte american nu ar fi de neconceput să invadeze teritoriul unui aliat NATO”(Sursa: Eurotopics).

Ascensiunea extremei drepte, continuarea războiului de către Rusia și declarațiile amenințătoare ale președintelui ales Donald Trump la adresa Canadei și Danemarcei au ceva în comun: ele amintesc de perioada sumbră de dinaintea izbucnirii celui de-al doilea război mondial. Va reuși omenirea să-și păstreze rațiunea și să învețe din lecțiile trecutului? Asemănările sunt prea multe și prea flagrante pentru a scăpa neremarcate.Extrema dreaptă tropăie peste tot prin Europa și în același timp, asistăm la o degradare până la prăbușire a sistemului internațional.Războiul de agresiune al Rusiei asupra Ucrainei – primul de acest fel în Europa de după 1945 – și conflictul Israel-Hamas, care a urmat atacului terorist  din 7 octombrie 2023 nu au putut fi gestionate în cadrul sistemului internațional.Având în Rusia agresoare un membru cu drept de veto în Consiliul de Securitate, Organizația Națiunilor Unite s-a dovedit incapabilă de acțiune. Și există destule asemănări cu felul în care Societatea Națiunilor a eșuat în a preveni izbucnirea celui de-al doilea război mondial.Anul 2025 a început, în mod sumbru, cu conferința de presă în care președintele ales al Statelor Unite și-a provocat doi aliați din NATO. El a vorbit despre alipirea Canadei și preluarea insulei Groenlanda, aparținând Danemarcei.Donald Trump nu a exclus chiar folosirea forței pentru a-și atinge obiectivele. Bluf? Intenții reale? Toate acestea contează prea puțin câtă vreme această retorică nu face decât să să dea o justificare agresivității din partea cealaltă. În definitiv, de ce să mai continue sancțiunile internaționale la adresa Rusiei, din moment ce America este gata să facă la fel?Lumea în care am fost obișnuiți să trăim, departe de a fi perfectă, a încercat măcar să respecte anumite reguli, prima dintre ele fiind că granițele nu se modifică prin forță. Pare că intrăm într-o perioadă în care nu regulile sunt cele care contează, ci forța. Înclusiv în schimbarea frontierelor.Există și unele deosebiri față de perioada premergătoare celui de-al doilea război mondial. Prima, deloc de natură să ne liniștească, este că acum există armele nucleare, ceea ce face lumea un loc cu mult mai periculos.O a doua deosebire ar fi, totuși, memoria istorică. Acum cunoaștem lecțiile trecutului și n-ar trebui să le repetăm, dacă ne păstrăm un minimum de rațiune.Problema este însă că suntem în pericol de a aluneca într-o eră a iraționalului, așa cum vorbește jurnalista Anne Appelbaun, într-un excepțional articol din revista The Atlantic.Articolul începe printr-o descriere a celebrului clip în care candidatul pro-rus Călin Georgescu înoată într-un lac înghețat. Și se întreabă de unde această combinație ciudată – nostalgia Gărzii de Fier și trolii ruși, plus remediile naturiste propuse de soția sa. Cine este exact Georgescu? Cum pot fi clasificați asemenea oameni?”Deși este tentant să-i descriem drept „extrema dreaptă”, ei ar fi, de fapt, profeții Noului Obscurantism, oferind soluții magice, o aură de spiritualitate, superstiție și cultivarea fricii.Printre ei, șarlatani și influenceri care și-au dezvoltat ambiții politice; fanii mișcării cvasi-religioase QAnon și ai teoriilor conspirației, pro-ruși și anti-vacciniști, promotori ai naționalismului.Iar această elită internațională în creștere creează ceva foarte diferit: o societate în care superstiția învinge rațiunea și logica, transparența dispare, iar acțiunile nefaste ale liderilor politici sunt ascunse în spatele unui nor de prostii și distragere a atenției.Nu există controale și echilibre într-o lume în care doar carisma contează, nici o regulă de drept într-o lume în care emoția învinge rațiunea - doar un gol pe care oricine are o poveste șocantă și convingătoare îl poate umple”, spune autoarea.Iar cu așa ceva, omenirea nu s-a mai întâlnit. Ascultați rubrica ”Eurocronica”, cu Ovidiu Nahoi, în fiecare zi, de luni până vineri, de la 8.45 și în reluare duminica, de la 15.00, numai la RFI România

Kun én historie er ægte, og resten er snedigt opfundet af nyhedsoraklerne (Freja og Lucas).  Vi hører i dette afsnit om en makakabe på Gibraltar, der på frækkeste vis stjæler et par kvalitetsbriller. Så er der fortællingen om maskotten Dunse, der tragikomisk mister sit hoved og efterlader en flok traumatiserede børn i kølvandet.

Because if they perceive me as being grounded and competent and confident in what I'm saying, they're more likely to buy into the information I'm sharing.” 24:20 “Whenever I talk about nervousness or anxiety, I love this quote by Mark Twain. He said, "There are two types of speakers in this world, the ones that are nervous and the ones that are liars."” 28:15 “I think it can be really empowering to know – what's the most effective way to organize information so that it can be easily understood or acted on as an example. There is an acronym that they use in the military called BLUF, B-L-U-F. They follow it mostly in writing, but it applies to speaking as well. It stands for Bottom Line Up Front. Some of you might be familiar with it. Essentially, what it means is the very beginning of what you're writing or saying should be the bottom line. It should be, what is my main takeaway?

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 much is reducing catastrophic and extinction risk worth, assuming XPT forecasts?, published by rosehadshar on July 25, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. This is a post I drafted some months ago, in the course of analysing some XPT data and reading Shulman and Thornley. It's not very sophisticated, I haven't checked the workings, and I haven't polished the language; but I'm posting anyway because that seems better than not posting. Note that it's a personal take and doesn't represent FRI's views. Thanks to Josh Rosenberg at FRI and Elliot Thornley for help and comments. BLUF: if you make a bunch of assumptions, then even quite low absolute risk forecasts like the XPT ones imply quite high spending on reducing GCRs, conditional on there being sufficiently cost-effective ways to do so. In 2022, what has become the Forecasting Research Institute ran the Existential Risk Persuasion Tournament (XPT). Over 200 forecasters, including superforecasters and domain experts, spent 4 months making forecasts on various questions related to existential and catastrophic risk. You can see the results from the tournament overall here, and a discussion of the XPT AI risk forecasts in particular here. These are the main XPT forecasts on catastrophic and extinction risk: Biological--Engineered pathogens--Natural pathogens--AI (superforecasters)AI (domain experts)NuclearNon-anthropogenicTotal catastrophic riskBiological--Engineered pathogens--Natural pathogens--AI (superforecasters)AI (domain experts)NuclearNon-anthropogenicTotal extinction risk 2030 2050 2100 Catastrophic risk (>10% of humans die in 5 years) 1.8% 0.8% 1% 0.01% 0.73% 2.13% 0.35% 5% 12% 0.50% 1.83% 4% 0.0026% 0.015% 0.05% 0.85% 3.85% 9.05% Extinction risk (human population

By Adam Turteltaub You really should listen to this podcast. That's my advice. If you do you'll hear Scott Garland, Managing Director, Sanctions, Cyber, Fraud and Ethics Compliance & Monitoring at Affiliated Monitors give better advice on giving advice. He begins by advising a bit of humility: remember that having a quick and ready answer is not always best. You are likely the newest person to learn about the problem and least familiar with it. As a result, you need to take the time to learn and determine not just what the immediate problem is but also what the situation as a whole is. Don't be afraid to ask others to slow down to ensure you understand things completely. Then, make sure you get the facts and context right. Be sure, too, to identify assumptions being made by the advice seekers to ensure that they are correct. They may not be. Once you have that information and the goal that the advice seekers have in mind, as well as what they see as the ideal outcome, then it is time to give advice. When you do, give them, he advises, a recipe and not a treatise on cooking. They don't need to know the long history of the rules and the many exceptions. Instead focus on bite-sized information that they can use and share with others. The BLUF approach can be very effective: Bottom Line Up Front. By summarizing the issues succinctly at the top, you are more likely to reach people who are far more focused on the advice than the reason behind it. Listen in to learn more about how to give advice wisely, the importance of documentation and the role of empathy, and if you're in SCCE member, read two articles on the topic by Scott on COSMOS.

Bonus EpisodeLeveling Up Your Emotional IntelligenceWelcome back! We are happy that you have tuned in to the Undeniable Level Up Podcast with your hosts, Jose Medina and Crystal Garcia. This bonus episode will help you level up your emotional intelligence. Understanding personalities and how they differ is paramount to increasing your emotional intelligence. Just like us, we know that you have experienced interactions where you were left feeling confused by the other individual's reaction to you or maybe even the situation itself.  Prepare to be enlightened today! Emotional intelligence is key to leading successfully and even living successfully. According to Travis Bradberry, “Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others, and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships.” Q: What are your thoughts on this description of emotional intelligence?  Though this description is accurate it's missing the inclusion of how personality plays into this.  Personality is the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character. Part of being emotionally intelligent is understanding the individual's response(s) in relationship to their personality.  Q: What are your thoughts on the importance of personality in being emotionally intelligent? Well for starters there is a misconception that being emotionally intelligent is strictly about reading emotions and it's not. An individual's personality determines not only how but why they will respond in various ways. If you know and understand personality differences at the most basic level, you can increase your emotional intelligence immediately. This increase in your emotional intelligence allows you to confront interactions almost like you have received a full brief prior to that interaction.  Q: So what are the different personalities? I am sure most people are aware that there are a multitude of personality tests and styles. However for the purposes of this podcast , we are going to utilize the easiest and most basic personality identification model DISC. Each letter of the DISC model signifies one of the four personality types. D (Dominant) – RedI (Influential) – YellowS (Steady) – GreenC (Conscientious) – Blue So, we are going to break down each personality. As we do this, think about what personality you are. Think about the personalities of those you interact with.  We will start this off with what I refer to as a, “red.” The D or dominant personality trait. Famous people with this personality are Arnold Schwarzenegger and Oprah Winfrey▪ Communication Method - Direct  ▪ Emotional Intelligence – High (they are able to recognize and draw out potential in others)▪ Valueo Achievement – achieve results and are competitiveo Action – take action quicko Control – they will take charge▪ Their Driveo Desire to Wino Doing Something Meaningfulo Goal Orientation▪ Their Motivatorso Challenges – solving problemso Implementations/Changes – Implementing new things, adapting to changes▪ Challengeso Aggressive – They can be aggressiveo Details – They do not like details, they see them as unnecessaryo Pushy – they can seem pushy because they do not give up and believe there is a way around anythingo Sensitivity – due to their value in action and achievement they can come off as being insensitiveo Type “A” – like to take credit and may come off as “know it alls” Connecting with a red requires for you to:▪ Allow them to make their own decisions▪ Ask them if you want insight into their decisions, they will tell you▪ Promote competition▪ Recognize them in front of others▪ Utilize BLUF (bottom line up front) when communicating with them “Meat & Potatoes” The I or Influential personality is what we will refer to as a yellow. Famous people with this personality are Kevin Hart and Robin Williams.▪ Communication Method – Passive (tends to avoid conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they connect and build relationships easily)▪ Valueo Attention – they are energized by people and love attentiono Connection – they like to connect to many peopleo Image – they dress to be noticed and care about their image▪ Their Driveo Connecting with otherso Image▪ Their Motivatorso Connection – they are moved by personal storieso Fun & Happiness – they like things fun, when its not fun they get boredo Social Recognition – they love social recognition▪ Challengeso Attention – they have a short attention spano Avoidance – they avoid pain rather its physical or emotionalo Boredom – they bore easily and quicklyo Follow Through – if its boring or no longer interesting they will stop doing it Connecting with a yellow requires for you to:▪ Be enthusiastic when you communicate new things▪ Follow-up with them▪ Make things fun when possible▪ Reward them▪ Support them▪ Tie changes to image The S or Steady personality is what we will refer to as a green. Famous people with this personality are Nelson Mandela and Julia Roberts.▪ Communication Methodo Passive (w/ passive aggressive tendencies)o Calm (avoids conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they require clear and concise information and guidance)▪ Valueo Collaboration – they like working in groupso Formal Roles – they like formal roles in activitieso Support – they like to both give and receive support▪ Their Driveo Desire to “help”o Desire to make a difference▪ Their Motivatorso Appreciation for “help”o Given the opportunity to help make a difference▪ Challengeso Blame – they often blame other for their situationo Change – they do not like changeo Collaboration – they are reluctant to share without total comforto Decision Making – they do not take sides (they like to make everyone happy)o Emotional Intelligence – they often misread what is said or doneo Emotions – they respond and lead emotionallyo Focus – they can't handle numerous taskso Motivators – they will not take responsibility for others motivatorso Time Management – they take their time with tasks; often unorganized Connecting with a green requires for you to:▪ Encourage them / to complete projects▪ Help them explore ways to save energy, time, and money▪ Question them to gain insight into what they need▪ Show them appreciation for their contributions▪ Show them the necessity for change▪ When faced with decisions, ensure they understand the responsibility is theirs The C or Conscientious personality is what we will refer to as a blue. Famous people with this personality are Steve Jobs and Warren Buffet.▪ Communication Methodo Passive (avoids conflict)▪ Emotional Intelligence – Low (they enjoy one on one conversations)▪ Valueo Facts & Standards – they don't like information without facts and they like standardso Genuine & Meaningful Connection – they are very selective with who they befriendo Loyalty – they are loyal and expect loyalty in returno One on One Conversations – they do not like big parties and being in the spotlighto Solitude – they are energized by working and being alone▪ Their Driveo Solitude▪ Their Motivatorso Loyaltyo Solitude – they like to be aloneo Solving Problems▪ Challengeso Constructive Criticism – they do not take constructive criticism wello Forgiveness – they can be unforgiving because of their value in loyaltyo Private – they prefer to keep their lives private, so this may be hard for people to understando Sensitive – they can be easily hurto Solitude – they are prone to depression because of their desire for solitude Connecting with a blue requires for you to:▪ Follow through with you piece of the puzzle▪ Give them a plan of action▪ Give them time to make decisions▪ Provide them data when you want to implement change▪ Provide facts▪ Recognize them privately Q: So now that we have shared each personality type, what do you think we can do to leverage this information to increase our emotional intelligence? If you know and understand your own personality and those with whom you interact, you can leverage that in how you communicate to connect and motivate.  Q: Have you leveraged this information to increase your emotional intelligence and if so how? Q: Do you know your personality Crystal and if so, what can you tell us about it?Yes. I am a Red, Blue, Green, Yellow. My red and blue are very close to one another though my red is a little higher. My green is a bit lower but still very much a part of my personality. Now yellow, is almost non-existent, LOL! With information, I am a BLUF or meat and potatoes person, but I also want data. I can make hard decisions based on data and quickly. If you are not meeting the mark, I'll be direct.  Q: So what can our listeners do to identify their own personality and those with whom they work? We have provided a DISC personality assessment in the show notes. Most theorists say claim that your EQ (like your IQ) measures how well you can leverage this information in handling your emotions in yourself and others.  Victor E. Franel says, "Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom.” CTAWe challenge all of our listeners to utilize this information in their daily lives and see how much their interactions change for the better.DISC Model Personality Test Link  ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

What are some of the biggest interviewing mistakes JMOs should avoid when transitioning to business? What are some tips for avoiding a verbal professional faux pas? We can help. After 50+ years of coordinating interviews with officers in our program and our client companies, we've learned a thing or two! Our team puts together five conferences per year, each averaging 500+ interviews over the span of two days. The success rate of our officers? For the past year, we've been sitting at 100%. Every officer in our program receives a personalized transition preparation experience, ranging from individual career coaching phone calls to mock interview preparation. However, we do know that interviewing comes with its challenges. We work hard to ensure officers in our program avoid some of the more common interviewing mistakes we've seen over the years. These are some of the most common interviewing mistakes we see JMOs make along with tips on how to avoid them. Self-Deprecation. Be sure to avoid any phrases like "...I don't have much experience in business..." and instead jump straight to "...I'm a hard worker and won't let you down!" If client companies are interviewing JMOs, they know you don't have directly relatable experience. Don't undervalue your worth by falling into this mistake. The "...what can you do for me?" Mentality. In every interview, the decision maker has a problem—an open position. Your first priority in the interview is to help them see a solution to their problem (AKA: your ability and interest). Pronouns. In many cases, officers like to give credit to their teams using pronouns like "you" and "we". This is definitely a good thing! However, the interviewer wants to know more about your impact. When interviewing, try to use "I" for a more powerful statement. For example, instead of saying something like "...when you lead a team, you should first..." say "...when I lead a team, I...". Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF). When answering accomplishment-focused questions, use this BLUF method. Ultimately, the recruiter wants to know what you did and the final outcome of the situation. Leading your example with the bottom line gives a direct answer to the question, sets the scene for your story and helps you stay on track during delivery. Memorize the Method, Not the Answer. You don't want to sound like a robot when delivering answers. This can be incredibly obvious to a recruiter. Once you know your methods backwards and forwards, it'll be easier to color in the lines with personal experiences.

Who? When? How? Why? – Government has more questions than answers, lets talk about this Assume we answered all the above questions, whats next? ​then provide tangible benefits, then tell them where you have done it successfully = Strength/Significant StrengthCan you give some examples how this could be done? ​How can we apply solutioning  for a quick turnaround and commercial proposals? Lets talk about Why Solutions So Hard? What are the 3 main issues? Lets pick one at a time and talk about it. 1.Lack of Subject Matter Expertise (SME)Result: Fluffy proposals – Losing bidsFix: get experts or no bid!2.Lack of Solutioneers/Facilitators (Capture Managers, Solution Architects, etc.)Result: nuts and bolts described with no big picture or benefits to the customer (what are they buying?)Fix: Hire professional help (or no bid if no sufficient budget)3. Lack of Time/PatienceResult: Incomplete solutioning leads to lack of solutionsFix: Be patient – it takes time….or if the timeline is very limited – no bid – it's likely wiredIn summary, what is the solution magic and how can solutions improve bottom line profit? ​Support the show (https://pod.fan/scribble-talk)
