SPOS #999 – Noah Giansiracusa On The Algorithms That Run Your Life

Welcome to episode #999 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Noah Giansiracusa is an associate professor of mathematics at Bentley University and a visiting scholar at Harvard who has built a reputation for translating the hidden power of algorithms into plain language that empowers individuals. With a PhD in algebraic geometry from Brown, he's always bringing a mathematician's eye to the cultural and social impact of technology. His earlier book, How Algorithms Create and Prevent Fake News, was praised by Nobel Prize–winning economist Paul Romer as “the best guide to the strategies and stakes of this battle for the future.” In his latest book, Robin Hood Math - Take Control Of The Algorithms That Run Your Life, Noah shows how banks, insurers, tech giants and governments use algorithms to make decisions that shape our lives, and how ordinary people can reclaim agency using simple mathematical tools. At a time when our feeds, finances and even friendships are increasingly mediated by code, Noah argues that math can be a democratizing force: a way to cut through the opacity of “black box” systems, understand who benefits from them, and make better choices in daily life. His work emphasizes that algorithms are neither inherently good nor bad, they tilt the balance of power depending on who wields them. By unpacking formulas like the weighted sum that underpins credit scores, college rankings and even TikTok virality, he provides a way to see through the manipulation and complexity. In this episode, Noah discusses the double-edged nature of technology, the transparency gap in digital platforms, the cultural consequences of algorithm-driven media and why math education must evolve to reflect the algorithmic realities students are already living. For anyone curious about reclaiming autonomy in a world increasingly designed by machines, his message is clear: a little math can go a long way in leveling the playing field.

Mere Spirituality by Joshua Spatha Mperspective.org https://www.amazon.com/Mere-Spirituality-Joshua-Spatha/dp/1636986331 With new insights into ancient wisdom, Mere Spirituality will challenge people to embark on their own spiritual journey with practical and tangible results in mind. Western society is in cognitive dissonance, paying lip service to scientific materialism while simultaneously searching for meaning in life, believing in spiritual realities, and experimenting with different religious practices. Being fed an anemic diet of the shallow and superficial, society is starving for depth and searching for purpose. Mere Spirituality offers a concise commentary on the state of Western civilization, highlighting the successes and failures of its modern worldview and philosophy while reintroducing essential elements that formed its foundation. By diagnosing the current spirit of the age, it then prescribes a healthier alternative without sacrificing rationality, explaining the concept, reason, and practice of spiritual disciplines. Bridging the gap between the left and right brain, Mere Spirituality speaks the language of reason to establish the deeper purpose and meaning of life and the logical arrival at spiritual conclusions. The result is a fascinating and insightful study of humanity, society, and reality, with a greater understanding of the “what” and “why” of spiritual disciplines that don't just preach to the choir. This inspirational guide will encourage people—whether they're mystics or skeptics—to step out of their spiritual comfort zone.About the author Joshua Spatha majored in anthropology with a minor in Old Testament studies before he began serving in full-time missions in 2006, traveling primarily in the Middle East and Asia.

Jeg har hørt om én, der kan hjælpe," sagde Ida med øjne, der strålede af håb.En: "Freja! I heard about someone who can help," said Ida with eyes shining with hope.Da: "En forsker fra syd har studeret lignende sygdomme."En: "A researcher from the south has studied similar diseases."Da: Freja tøvede, vidste, at mange i landsbyen ikke ville være glade for at bringe en udenforstående ind.En: Freja hesitated, knowing that many in the village would not be pleased to bring in an outsider.Da: Men Ida havde plantet et frø af håb i hende.En: But Ida had planted a seed of hope in her.Da: Uden at spilde tid besluttede Freja at skrive til forskeren for at få hjælp.En: Without wasting time, Freja decided to write to the researcher for help.Da: Dagene gik langsomt.En: The days passed slowly.Da: Freja ventede nervøst på svar.En: Freja waited nervously for a response.Da: Til sidst kom der et brev.En: At last, a letter arrived.Da: Forskeren, Dr. Hansen, var villig til at rejse til Lapland for at hjælpe.En: The researcher, Dr. Hansen, was willing to travel to Lapland to help.Da: Men Freja vidste, at det ville kræve overtalelse for at få hele landsbyen med på idéen.En: But Freja knew it would take persuasion to get the entire village on board with the idea.Da: Freja samlede landsbyen, Jens, Ida og de andre, for at tale om situationen.En: Freja gathered the village, Jens, Ida, and the others, to talk about the situation.Da: "Vi har brug for hjælp," sagde hun.En: "We need help," she said.Da: "Dr. Hansen kan måske redde rensdyrene.En: "Dr. Hansen might be able to save the reindeer.Da: Men vi skal være åbne for nye metoder."En: But we need to be open to new methods."Da: Der gik en murmur igennem flokken, mange skeptiske blikke.En: A murmur went through the crowd, many skeptical glances.Da: Men Freja stod fast, hendes stemme stærk og klar.En: But Freja stood firm, her voice strong and clear.Da: "Vi kan bevare vores traditioner og samtidig beskytte det, vi elsker."En: "We can preserve our traditions while also protecting what we love."Da: Til sidst lagde Jens en hånd på Frejas skulder.En: Finally, Jens laid a hand on Freja's shoulder.Da: "Vi må prøve," sagde han, og langsomt nikkede de andre i enighed.En: "We must try," he said, and slowly the others nodded in agreement.Da: Dr. Hansen ankom kort tid efter og satte straks gang i undersøgelserne.En: Dr. Hansen arrived shortly after and immediately began the investigations.Da: Sammen med Freja og landsbyen arbejdede de dag og nat.En: Together with Freja and the village, they worked day and night.Da: Efter mange døgn afslørede analyserne problemet: en ukendt svamp i mosset, som rensdyrene åd.En: After many days, the analyses revealed the problem: an unknown fungus in the moss that the reindeer ate.Da: Med dette nye kendskab kunne Freja og landsbyens folk tage affære.En: With this new knowledge, Freja and the village people could take action.Da: De ryddede områderne af mos og sørgede for sund kost til rensdyrene.En: They cleared the areas of moss and ensured a healthy diet for the reindeer.Da: Sygdommen begyndte at trække sig tilbage.En: The disease began to recede.Da: Freja så på mens rensdyrene igen græssede frit, og med lettelse kunne hun mærke stoltheden i landsbyens øjne.En: Freja watched as the reindeer grazed freely again, and with relief, she could sense the pride in the eyes of the villagers.Da: Kombinationen af tradition og moderne viden havde gjort en forskel.En: The combination of tradition and modern knowledge had made a difference.Da: Freja havde vundet en ny styrke, og hendes mod og vilje til at forene det gamle med det nye havde sikret deres fremtid.En: Freja had gained new strength, and her courage and willingness to unite the old with the new had secured their future.Da: Rensdyrerne levede videre, og med dem, Frejas arv og landsbyens hjerte.En: The reindeer lived on, and with them, Freja's legacy and the heart of the village.

This IDD Health Matters podcast features a conversation between Dr. Craig Escudé and Ley Linder, focusing on a collaborative initiative called “Unlocking Behaviors.” This project, inspired by Dr. Rick Rader, aims to bridge the gap between medical and behavioral approaches when evaluating challenging behaviors in individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The discussion emphasizes the importance of integrated healthcare, where medical, mental, oral, and behavioral health professionals work together to uncover the root causes of behaviors that may initially seem purely psychological but often have underlying medical explanations. Both speakers highlight the critical role of direct support professionals, who, despite lacking formal training, possess deep knowledge of the individuals they care for and can provide essential observational insights. The conversation also addresses the lack of formal training in both medical and behavioral fields regarding the intersection of health and behavior, advocating for ongoing education and openness to interdisciplinary collaboration.

In this episode, we spoke with Richard Savoie, Co-founder and CEO of Adiona Tech, about how AI and logistics software are accelerating the transition to smarter, greener cities. Richard shared his journey from medical devices to sustainable logistics, and how Adiona is helping global enterprises—from Coca-Cola to Australia Post—optimize fleets, cut emissions, and prepare for an electric and autonomous future. We explored why electrification requires new software, how AI digital twins reduce risk, and how sustainability can become a competitive advantage in logistics. Key Insights: • AI-powered fleet optimization: Adiona uses digital twins and AI simulations to boost vehicle utilization from ~60% toward 100%, maximizing assets while reducing costs and emissions. • Bridging electrification gaps: EVs and cargo bikes behave differently than diesel fleets, and Adiona's software closes that gap, making sustainable adoption practical and profitable. • Scalable impact: Partnerships with PepsiCo and Australia Post demonstrate measurable reductions in emissions and logistics costs, while improving customer retention. • Sustainability as strategy: Companies are turning emissions reporting into a competitive edge, with leaders like PepsiCo using low-carbon fleets to differentiate their brand and win contracts. • Future-ready logistics: We discussed autonomous vehicles, sidewalk robots, and hybrid delivery networks that will reshape how goods move through cities.

When the towing and trucking industries seem locked in an endless cycle of misunderstanding and tension, one Kentucky couple has found a remarkable way to change the conversation – by taking their 50-ton rotator to major truck shows across America.Clifton and Joyce Parsley of Crossroads Towing are on a mission to transform how the trucking community views the towing industry. What began as simply displaying their wrecker with an American flag at the Atlanta Motor Speedway has evolved into a nationwide campaign of goodwill that's winning trophies, changing perceptions, and building bridges between industries that desperately need better relationships."We didn't know what kind of response we would get from taking a rotator wrecker to a trucking show, but it has really been positive," explains Clifton. With their impressive 6x10 American flag illuminated at night by boom lights, they've created a display that draws crowds, sparks conversations, and gives them the opportunity to educate truckers about the realities of the towing business beyond what they see on reality TV.Their story gained even greater depth when Joyce, a registered nurse, was thrust into running the entire business during Clifton's two-month hospitalization with COVID-19. "I knew he was coming home, so I was going to keep his dream alive," she shares. This experience gave her invaluable insights into operations, regulations, and the day-to-day challenges of running a towing company.From participating in Christmas parades with the Grinch on their hook to connecting with veterans who appreciate their patriotic display, the Parsleys demonstrate how community engagement can transform industry relationships. Their advice to fellow towers? Get involved locally, attend both towing and trucking shows, and pursue ongoing education through industry certifications.Join us at the International Towing Museum in Chattanooga on October 9th for a live podcast recording where you can meet industry leaders working to strengthen connections between these essential transportation services.

In this comprehensive discussion, Bryan sits down with Brad Cooper, an experienced HVAC instructor from Arkansas, and JD Kelly, a trade school graduate, to tackle one of the most pressing questions in the HVAC industry: Is trade school worth it? Rather than offering a simple yes or no answer, the trio dives deep into the nuanced factors that determine whether trade school provides real value for aspiring HVAC technicians. The conversation begins with Brad's unique perspective as both a field technician with over 20 years of experience and a current instructor who transitioned to teaching five years ago. His father's business background and the common frustration of having to "go behind people and fix stuff" motivated Brad to enter education, believing that proper training from the start could eliminate many field problems. JD brings the student perspective, having attended trade school while working full-time, which gives him insight into both the challenges and benefits of formal HVAC education. A significant portion of the discussion focuses on what to look for when evaluating trade schools. The guests emphasize that the investment in laboratory equipment and facilities often reflects the school's commitment to the program - you can tell immediately upon walking into a lab whether the institution truly prioritizes HVAC education. They stress the importance of accreditation, particularly from organizations like HVAC Excellence, which provides regular oversight and ensures schools meet industry standards. The conversation reveals that accreditation isn't just about having a certificate on the wall; it represents a school's willingness to submit to external scrutiny and maintain educational quality. The discussion also addresses the critical balance between theoretical knowledge and practical application. All three speakers agree that the most valuable trade school experiences combine classroom learning with real-world field exposure through partnerships with local contractors, apprenticeship programs, or internship opportunities. They emphasize that instructor quality matters more than having the latest equipment - a humble, field-experienced teacher who can adapt to different student skill levels and learning styles proves far more valuable than someone with extensive theoretical knowledge but limited practical experience.

Most people facing legal problems don't see them as legal at all—they see them as life problems with landlords, employers, or benefits agencies. That disconnect leaves millions without meaningful help, even when lawyers or courts are available.  In this episode, Zack Glaser talks with Professor Rebecca Sandefur (Arizona State University, American Bar Foundation) and Matthew Burnett (Georgetown Law, ABF) about their research on community justice workers and why people-centered solutions may be the key to closing the justice gap.  They explore how community justice workers operate in Alaska and beyond, why legal help doesn't always have to come from lawyers, and how rules around unauthorized practice of law are evolving. You'll hear evidence that trained non-lawyers can be just as effective—sometimes more so—than attorneys in resolving critical issues like housing or benefits.  Rebecca and Matthew also discuss what “success” really means: scalable, sustainable programs that meet people where they are, in their own communities, in their own language. And they argue that broadening access to justice isn't just about legal services—it's about strengthening democracy itself.  This episode is for lawyers, policymakers, and innovators who want to reimagine how legal help is delivered—and build a justice system that actually works for the people it's meant to serve.  Additionally, Zack and Stephanie talk about the upcoming ClioCon 2025 in Boston, MA.

Two builders walk into a podcast studio… no, seriously. This isn't the start of a joke, but the beginning of a deeply fascinating exploration into the very architecture of social change. We're talking about the kind of change that doesn't just rearrange the furniture, but rebuilds the house from the foundation up. And that, my friends, is a far more intricate and precarious undertaking.This week on Mission Forward, we're joined by not one, but two remarkable individuals who embody this spirit of courageous construction. Stacey Palmer, editor of The Chronicle of Philanthropy, sets the stage  introducing Eboo Patel, founder of Interfaith America, and Iara Peng, the visionary behind JustFund. Together, Eboo and Iara paint a vivid picture of what it truly means to build a more just and equitable world. They share their hard-won wisdom, gleaned from years of experience battling bureaucratic inertia and challenging deeply ingrained biases. Eboo recounts his early struggles navigating the labyrinthine world of philanthropic gatekeepers, a story that resonates with anyone who's ever dared to dream big. Iara, meanwhile, offers a glimpse into the future of giving, where technology empowers donors to align their actions with their values, transforming philanthropy from a passive act of charity into a dynamic force for change.This episode is a call to action, a reminder that we all have a role to play in building the world we want to see.

In Episode 180 of Earned, CreatorIQ's Chief Marketing Officer Brit Starr sits down with Ted Raad—founder and CEO of Trend, a top U.S. creator management agency—to explore what happens when business acumen meets creative purpose. After a career in mergers and acquisitions, Ted's perspective shifted thanks to one person: his wife, a fashion and lifestyle creator navigating brand partnerships and authenticity. Now, he's helping lead the charge toward a more thoughtful, long-term approach to creator marketing—one rooted in trust, transparency, and community. Ted shares what it means to prioritize brand-aligned creators over one-off conversions and how his agency is evolving to support both ROI- and awareness-driven partnerships. He also makes a compelling case for integrating creator marketing into core brand strategies, not just siloed campaigns. Throughout the episode, we dig into what's next: the growing role of AI in streamlining workflows, the challenge of standardizing measurement, and what it'll take to future-proof creator programs at scale. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Ted Raad believes advocacy and authenticity are the foundation of sustainable creator careers. What brands should consider before expecting direct sales from a first-time influencer campaign, and how long-term relationships create stronger returns. How Trend evolved from a bedroom idea into a full-service agency by focusing on helping creators build businesses around who they are and what they value.

In this episode, Bart speaks with longtime THG consultant and Professor of Voice, Acting, and Performance Research at Concordia University, Noah Drew, about the deep connection between presence, performance, and leadership. Noah shares how his journey through theatre and voice work shaped his understanding of what presence really means, and why it matters for both actors and leaders. Bridging his work in theatre and leadership development, Noah introduces the Presence Triangle. He breaks down the three points of the triangle: the inner experience of the speaker, the outer awareness of the audience, and the material at hand, and explains why great communicators stay attuned to all three. Along the way, he offers practical ways to assess your own presence, strengthen it, and show up more fully and authentically in the moments that matter. Whether you're preparing for a high-stakes presentation or simply want to be more intentional in everyday interactions, this conversation will help you lead with greater clarity, connection, and presence.
