Feeling more confident about finding the right reads is a common bookish goal. In today's conversation, Anne welcomes Tynisha Coleman to the show to talk about her current reading goals. Tynisha is a leadership development coach, university lecturer, and sci-fi and fantasy lover from New Jersey. She doesn't shy away from books that tackle tough plot points, which often feature in the emotionally resonant books she loves. But she does expect these trickier developments to serve a sense of purpose to the plot, and she'd like to avoid reading experiences that send her into the depths of despair. Right now, Tynisha is looking for titles that offer a sense of escapism, both in her current preferred genres, and while also keeping open to other works she'll enjoy. Anne has a bunch of ideas to share. Find the list of titles mentioned in today's episode at our show notes page, at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/480.

The book suggests that at this point in the book you cannot unknow what your now know. If you choose to ignore what the book suggests you do - awaken and find your journey in this world. You will always know there is another choice. Its important to embrace the unknown and forge a path guided by the universe and one which only provides peace, joy and love.Thanks for listeningemail: trifectanow3@gmail.comAlways Love, Denyse

In this episode of Smart Advice, Carissa Lucreziano sits down with the Honourable Lisa Raitt, former federal cabinet minister and current Vice Chair of CIBC Capital Markets, to navigate the complex interplay of politics, economics, and markets. With insight shaped by decades of experience in government and now in the financial services sector, Lisa cuts through the noise to reflect on what matters most: Canada's sovereignty, strategy, and resilience in a rapidly changing global landscape.Be equipped with insights to make sense of volatility, understand the tools available to weather potential changes in US-Canada relations, and learn where smart money might be headed next. This episode is for every Canadian asking how to turn economic uncertainty into actionable opportunity.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Learn how political shifts, including Canada's new leadership, could reshape economic priorities at home and abroad.Understand the long-term implications of Donald Trump's return to the global stage and how Canada must prepare for potential changes in US-Canada relations.Gain clarity on growth opportunities in sectors like power generation, manufacturing, and national defence.ResourcesCIBC's "Smart Advice" Podcast and Website - Website | Apple Podcast | SpotifyThe Raitt StuffVisit CIBC for more Smart Advice, including a recent piece on ‘Navigating uncertainty and market volatility'Episode highlights[00:05] Are Canadians ready for future US-Canada relations?Lisa Raitt is introduced as a former cabinet minister in natural resources, labor, and transportation, now serving as Vice Chair at CIBC Capital Markets.Canadians today face rising global tensions, inflationary pressures, and heightened political transitions which are reshaping economic expectations and policies.Lisa shares her optimism over the clarity offered by Canada's newly elected Prime Minister, Liberal leader Mark Carney, noting the stability—even in a minority government.The current US-Canada relations may shift with Prime Minister Carney's approach, but Lisa warns against overconfidence.Trade negotiations require more than charisma—leaders must find practical ways to provide the U.S. with a political “win” while protecting Canadian interests.[02:24] The rise of economic nationalismLisa outlines how economic nationalism, especially in the US, has led to the weaponization of tariffs and elevated supply chain threats.Canada's dependence on US trade is now seen as both a strength and a potential vulnerability—prompting calls for increased self-reliance.She advocates for doubling down on sectors where Canada already has a comparative advantage: energy, agriculture, mining, and forestry. [08:48] Lisa: “What has happened in the time of Trump is we realize that you can't continue on just accepting the United States growth as the growth that we're going to get; that we actually have to do some work ourselves” Government must play a dual role—advocating for global trade fairness while supporting long-term investment in domestic capacity and infrastructure. [09:31] Understanding Trump's policy visionUnlike previous leaders, Trump's economic policy direction is guided less by data and more by ideology, particularly focused on ‘Made in America' mandates.Lisa emphasizes that traditional counter-arguments (e.g., logic, economic impact) often fall flat with the Trump administration.Trump is unapologetically focused on rebuilding American manufacturing—painful or not—for the long-term benefit of US jobs and industrial strength.Canadian leaders and citizens must stop assuming rational policy shifts or midterm electoral changes in the US will automatically solve trade tensions. [12:18] What's driving American progress?Despite controversial rhetoric, some of Trump's policies—bringing semiconductor production back, advancing nuclear energy—could deliver strategic benefit.The concern lies in whether these wins are drowned out by large-scale costs: fractured alliances, damaged supply chains, and fragile diplomacy.[13:42] Lisa: “When you're presented with a dog's breakfast of tons of different policies, some of them are going to be good. The question, though, is whether or not the overall policy direction is such that it kind of takes away all the wins because the losses are so massive.”Canada's response needs to be realistic, grounded in its own capabilities and long-term values rather than reactive politics. [14:05] Canada: Not the 51st US StateLisa strongly believes in Canadian sovereignty, rejecting the suggestion that Canada could—or should—become the 51st US state.She suggests that the idea may stem from a desire for closer cooperation, but realizing that idea must not come at the cost of Canada's national identity or self-determination.However, it may be beneficial to push for stronger strategic collaboration in areas like North American defence, transportation infrastructure, and trade logistics.According to Lisa, Canada and many other NATO states have neglected their roles in national defence, often relying on U.S. military spending. [18:50] Market trends to watch amidst shifting U.S.-Canada relationsLisa identifies power generation as the backbone of future economic infrastructure—no longer just a policy option but a necessity.Energy constraints are already impacting provincial decisions, signalling long-term opportunities for investors.Lisa urges Canadian investors to continue trusting expert advisors—and to anchor their portfolios to well-researched macro insights.Branching into sectors like energy, resource extraction, and clean technology offers more stability in an uncertain political environment.Watching how the Carney government navigates energy pipeline development will be crucial; investors should blend pragmatic strategy with public policy foresight. [25:04] Charting a path forward for CanadaLisa remains hopeful yet cautious about the government's ability to deliver meaningful results in the next four years.The speech from the throne will be telling as to whether there's a break from past policy gridlocks toward more resilient, future-focused legislation.Maintaining stable US-Canada relations involves more than policy; we have to remember to distinguish between governments and people.The thickening of the U.S.-Canada border is another sad consequence of political tension, and efforts must be made to restore trust and open channels.About Lisa Lisa Raitt is the Vice Chair at CIBC Capital Markets, bringing decades of experience in navigating economic and political landscapes.

More info: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/overview The AI coding wars have now split across four battlegrounds: 1. AI IDEs: with two leading startups in Windsurf ($3B acq. by OpenAI) and Cursor ($9B valuation) and a sea of competition behind them (like Cline, Github Copilot, etc). 2. Vibe coding platforms: Bolt.new, Lovable, v0, etc. all experiencing fast growth and getting to the tens of millions of revenue in months. 3. The teammate agents: Devin, Cosine, etc. Simply give them a task, and they will get back to you with a full PR (with mixed results) 4. The cli-based agents: after Aider's initial success, we are now seeing many other alternatives including two from the main labs: OpenAI Codex and Claude Code. The main draw is that 1) they are composable 2) they are pay as you go based on tokens used. Since we covered all three of the first categories, today's guests are Boris and Cat, the lead engineer and PM for Claude Code. If you only take one thing away from this episode, it's this piece from Boris: Claude Code is not a product as much as it's a Unix utility. This fits very well with Anthropic's product principle: “do the simple thing first.” Whether it's the memory implementation (a markdown file that gets auto-loaded) or the approach to prompt summarization (just ask Claude to summarize), they always pick the smallest building blocks that are useful, understandable, and extensible. Even major features like planning (“/think”) and memory (#tags in markdown) fit the same idea of having text I/O as the core interface. This is very similar to the original UNIX design philosophy: Claude Code is also the most direct way to consume Sonnet for coding, rather than going through all the hidden prompting and optimization than the other products do. You will feel that right away, as the average spend per user is $6/day on Claude Code compared to $20/mo for Cursor, for example. Apparently, there are some engineers inside of Anthropic that have spent >$1,000 in one day! If you're building AI developer tools, there's also a lot of alpha on how to design a cli tool, interactive vs non-interactive modes, and how to balance feature creation. Enjoy!

In this episode, I, Stewart Alsop III, sat down with AJ Beckner to walk through how non-technical founders can build a deeper understanding of their codebase using AI tools like Cursor and Claude. We explored the reality of navigating an IDE as a beginner, demystified Git and GitHub version control, and walked through practical ways to clone a repo, open it safely in Cursor, and start asking questions about your app's structure and functionality without breaking anything. AJ shared his curiosity about finding specific text in his app and how to track that down across branches. We also looked at using AI-powered tools for tasks like dependency analysis and visualizing app architecture, with a focus on empowering non-devs to gain confidence and clarity in their product's code. You can connect with AJ through Twitter at @thisistheaj.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 – Stewart introduces Cursor as a fork of Visual Studio Code and explains the concept of an IDE to AJ, who has zero prior experience. They talk about the complexity of coding and the importance of developer curiosity.05:00 – They walk through cloning a GitHub repository using the git clone command. Stewart highlights that AJ won't break anything and introduces the idea of a local playground for exploration.10:00 – Stewart explains Git vs GitHub, the purpose of version control, and how to use the terminal for navigation. They begin setting up the project in Cursor using the terminal rather than GUI options.15:00 – They realize only a README was cloned, leading to a discussion about branches—specifically the difference between main and development branches—and how to clone the right one.20:00 – Using git fetch, they get access to the development branch. Stewart explains how to disconnect from Git safely to avoid pushing changes.25:00 – AJ and Stewart begin exploring Cursor's AI features, including the chat interface. Stewart encourages AJ to start asking natural-language questions about the app structure.30:00 – Stewart demonstrates how to ask for a dependency analysis and create mermaid diagrams for visualizing how app modules are connected.35:00 – They begin identifying specific UI components, including finding and editing the home screen title. AJ uploads a screenshot to use as reference in Cursor.40:00 – They successfully trace the UI text to an index.tsx file and discuss the layout's dependency structure. AJ learns how to use search and command-F effectively.45:00 – They begin troubleshooting issues with Claude's GitHub integration, exploring Claude MCP servers and configuration files to fix broken tools.50:00 – Stewart guides AJ through using npm to install missing packages, explains what Node Package Manager is, and reflects on the interconnected nature of modern development.55:00 – Final troubleshooting steps and next steps. Stewart suggests bringing in Phil for deeper debugging. AJ reflects on how empowered he now feels navigating the codebase.Key InsightsYou don't need to be a developer to understand your app's codebase: AJ Beckner starts the session with zero familiarity with IDEs, but through Stewart's guidance, he begins navigating Cursor and GitHub confidently. The key idea is that non-technical founders can develop real intuition about their code—enough to communicate better with developers, find what they need, and build trust with the systems behind their product.Cursor makes AI-native development accessible to beginners: One of the biggest unlocks in this episode is seeing how Cursor, a VS Code fork with AI baked in, can answer questions about your codebase in plain English. By cloning the GitHub repo and indexing it, AJ is able to ask, “Where do I change this text in the app?” and get direct, actionable guidance. Stewart points out that this shifts the role of a founder from passively waiting on answers to actively exploring and editing.Version control doesn't have to be scary—with the right framing: Git and GitHub come across as overwhelming to many non-engineers, but Stewart breaks it down simply: Git is the local system that helps keep changes organized and non-destructive, and GitHub is the cloud-based sharing tool layered on top. Together, they allow safe experimentation, like cloning a development branch and disconnecting it from the main repo to create a playground environment.Branching strategies reflect how work gets done behind the scenes: The episode includes a moment of discovery: AJ cloned the main branch and only got a README. Stewart explains that the real work often lives in a “development” branch, while “main” is kept stable for production. Understanding this distinction helps AJ (and listeners) know where to look when trying to understand how features are actually being built and tested.Command line basics give you superpowers: Rather than relying solely on visual tools, Stewart introduces AJ to the terminal—explaining simple commands like cd, git clone, and git fetch—and emphasizes that the terminal has been the backbone of developer work for decades. It's empowering to learn that you can use just a few lines of text to download and explore an entire app.Modern coding is less about code and more about managing complexity: A recurring theme in the conversation is the sheer number of dependencies, frameworks, and configuration files that make up any modern app. Stewart compares this to a reflection of modern life—interconnected and layered. Understanding this complexity (rather than being defeated by it) becomes a mindset that AJ embraces as part of becoming technically fluent.AI will keep lowering the bar to entry, but learning fundamentals still matters: Stewart shares how internal OpenAI coding models went from being some of the worst performers two years ago to now ranking among the top 50 in the world. While this progress promises an easier future for non-devs, Stewart emphasizes the value of understanding what's happening under the hood. Tools like Claude and Cursor are incredibly powerful, but knowing what they're doing—and when to be skeptical—is still key.

Allan Weitz had little idea of the grand photographic adventures in store when he signed on as host of the B&H Photography Podcast shortly before the show's debut in October 2015. As a self-described big mouth, and with more than 40 years as a working pro fueling his curiosity about all things photographic, Allan quickly honed his chops to become the voice of the show. Today's episode marks a crossroads, as Allan passes his hosting mic to the show's incoming host, Derek Fahsbender, producer and host of the B&H Event Space. During a lively chat, we celebrate Allan's long and successful career, both on assignment and at the helm of the podcast, with some never before told stories and audio clips from memorable interactions with guests. A few of the many topics we cover include, how a kid from Sheepshead Bay made a name for himself photographing classic yachts, the ways in which Allan's time behind a New Jersey deli counter enhanced his ability to engage with people on a human level—among other benefits to career reinvention—and how his shift into podcasting taught him to use his voice as an instrument. As Allan aptly summarized for attendees of the podcast team's 2018 presentation of Podcasting 101: “It's not always what you say, but how you say it.” Guest: Allan Weitz Episode Timeline 3:38: Allan's B&H Event Space segment from Podcasting 101. 8:35: The back story to Allan's one-word podcast intro “Greetings!” 10:44: Allan's chat with digital camera inventor Steve Sasson about their shared Brooklyn roots. 13:56: Allan's hosting skills as a court jester—or Tummler in Yiddish. 16:12: Gear talk, and a clip from Allan's chat with Bellamy Hunt of The Japan Camera Hunter. 21:19: Allan waxes poetic about his love for the Hasselblad Superwide, plus his early adoption of digital gear. 28:24: Branching out from commercial assignments to tech writing and other things. 38:18: Episode break 39:27: Memorable stories and life lessons from Allan's assignment career. 44:22: Allan's entrée to the world of yachting photography and portfolio tips. 50:44: Allan's career evolution in the rarified 1980s photography landscape. 57:31: The art of the interview and the value of collaboration among the podcast team. 59:53: Getting beyond difficult pictures during an interview with Bruce Gilden 1:03:50: Upcoming plans and Allan's Kodachrome book project. 1:10:31: Allan offers listeners his Tusen Takks for their trust in his time behind the mic. Guest Bio: Allan Weitz started taking pictures when digital meant doing something with your fingers. A graduate of New York City's High School of Art and Design and the School of Visual Arts, Allan is the founding host of the B&H Photography Podcast, one of the highest-rated photography podcasts in Apple's Creative Arts category. For more than 50 years, Allan's photographs have graced the covers and inside pages of dozens of publications, including New York magazine, Esquire, GQ, Yachting, and Nautical Quarterly.

From Dust is a 24-minute VR Opera by composer Michel van der Aa that is premiering this week at the Rotterdam Immersive Tech Week, and I had a chance to get a sneak peak at the end of my trip covering IDFA DocLab in Amsterdam. The emotional core of From Dust is the top-notch composition from van der Aa and brilliant musical performance by Sjaella. It was a really powerful and moving immersive journey that seamlessly integrated my GenAI prompts creating a personalized experience. I can highly recommend checking it out to see where immersive music experiences are headed here in the future. The throughput of this piece is only 3-4 people per hour, and so it may be hard to be able to see it once they start touring it around Europe to different musical festivals. van der Aa told me that this is the lease commercial project that he's had a chance to ever work on, and acknowledges that this is a piece of subsidized art. There have been a lot of broader discussions happening within the XR industry about the sustainability of these types of location-based experiences, and the need for creators to understand some of the more pragmatic financial constraints for exhibition taking into consideration earlier in the production process. I'm in the process of finishing up the public report from the Think Tank at Venice Immersive this year on this very issue, and the MIT Open Documentary Lab is also actively starting to study these types of distribution questions as well at the R&D Summit at IDFA DocLab this year. But at the same time, it's also great to see artists who are able to get this type of work funded who are willing to push the virtual reality medium to the limits of creative expression despite some of the financial impracticalities of exhibition. Especially as it may drive the adaptation of this type of work into a format like the Apple Vision Pro or PCVR where it can be within a form factor that is a lot more scalable, even if there are compromises on fidelity or on the GenAI elements using the open source LLM of Flux that can not be distributed Steam due to Valve's restrictions on AI integrations within games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig9VqdLW9X0 I had a chance to catch up with van der Aa last week in order to get more context on his journey and process on creating the piece, as well as get some elaboration on the degree on some of the branching mechanics. There are some questions that they ask during the onboarding process that categorize the user's Big Five Personality characteristics, and then they are creating some invisible branching of my experience that was completely imperceptible to me. van der Aa told me that about 75% of the musical experience is the same for everyone, but that there are some explicit and implicit branching that is happening musically, but also a bit more visually as they are integrating my GenAI prompts in 4-5 different places throughout the experience. It's certainly an innovative and ambitious piece that has some GenAI parallels to Tulpamancer from Venice 2023, but one that shows the potential of combining musical composition with these types of immersive adventures that are able to tell a much richer story when combined.

HER Style Podcast | Buy Less, Shop Smarter, Build a Wardrobe You Love
One of the biggest shifts I've seen in the last 5 years or so in fashion is the desire many of us have for less in our wardrobes. I hear words like “streamlined closet”, “simple outfit formulas”, and a general want for fewer but better options when it comes to getting dressed. Our lives are busier and we want our wardrobes to be more functional than ever. Maybe you find yourself in a position like our anonymous community member who sent in today's Q&A Thursday question. She's on the hunt for pieces that can go from casual to dressy, so she doesn't need to stock up on more than is necessary for her life as a mom and new business owner. She wants to transition easily and effectively from caring for her littles to meeting with clients. But of course, this doesn't mean your wardrobe needs to be boring! Because she's also looking for ways to add fun pops of color and dress in hues that flatter her skin tone. If you're nodding along right now, thinking about how much you want this, too. Then, stick around and join me for this episode where we're going to talk about easy ways to dress up your outfits in a snap along with fool-proof tips to branch out from neutrals and pick pops of color that bring out your best.

In today's episode, we are joined by Dr. Andrew L. Hipp, the Director of the Herbarium and Senior Scientist in Plant Systematics at The Morton Arboretum. With a Ph.D. in Botany from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Dr. Hipp got into plant work as a way to work outdoors. Now, more than 20 years later, he has a lab that focuses on various aspects of plant biodiversity – with a strong focus on phylogenetics. Using molecular systematics, genomics, community ecology, and herbarium study, the Arboretum's Hipp Lab's current research, which includes oaks, sedges, and the use of phylogenetic and trait diversity, is not just theoretical. It is informing practical questions in ecological restoration and community ecology, making a tangible impact on the world we live in… Listen in to find out: The history of oak tree development and diversity. How oaks are most typically used. Where evolutionary history and ecology intersect. A common misconception about tree roots.

Branching off from last week's episode, we discuss weed management and some key in-the-field observations. Mitch mentioned that there are three common "modes of action" to control weeds including mechanical (tillage, hand pulling), chemical (herbicide), and biological (plant competition). Is it possible to manage weeds with only one? This week's guest on the Pennsylvania Woodsman is Troy Dietterich who shares some interesting observations from his personal hunting property. Troy and his wife prefer to limit the use of pesticides on their property. This is something anyone can do successfully if they stay dedicated and work hard towards. That's not to say it doesn't come a little more difficult and with a greater learning curve. Troy has used a multitude of seed blends and management styles on his food plots; some successful and some not. We dive into what worked, what didn't, and what key observations were made in order to make better decisions moving forward. This episode is a great example of just because someone says you should do something a certain way (this includes recommendations from Mitch!), doesn't mean you can't modify tactics to better serve your property and personal goals!
