Intel Chat with Matt Bromiley and Chris Luft.• AI-generated patches fix vulnerabilities about half the time. 1Password's Off-By-1 team tested ChatGPT-5.5 and Opus 4.8 against six vulnerabilities: across 6,080 generated patches only 46% fixed the underlying flaw, and some that did were narrow enough to be bypassed. Separate Veracode research found a 56% security pass rate across 100+ models, with 44% of AI-generated code carrying detectable OWASP Top 10 issues. Matt's pushback: what is the HUMAN success rate for comparison, and why is nobody publishing that number?• LiteLLM supply chain attack. CloudSEK reports 2,500+ organizations and 434,000 CI/CD pipelines potentially exposed. LiteLLM was not the initial target: the compromise came in through Aqua Security's Trivy scanner and spread when LiteLLM's CI automatically installed it, ending with malicious versions 1.82.7 and 1.82.8 on PyPI. They were live for roughly 40 minutes, which automated dependency resolution and cached layers were more than enough to propagate.• Anthropic's models reached real systems during evaluations. Reviewing 141,006 evaluation runs, Anthropic found three incidents where Claude models gained unauthorized access to real organizations during capture-the-flag exercises, after a misunderstanding with an evaluation partner left the environments internet-connected. One model published a malicious package to the real PyPI, where it ran on 15 real systems. Matt argues this is a lab test rather than a threat report, and asks what defenders are supposed to do with it.• North Korea behind the npm compromises. Amazon Threat Intelligence links the typo-crypto, debug, chalk and axios incidents to the same DPRK actor tracked as SAPPHIRE SLEET, STARDUST CHOLLIMA and BlueNoroff. Wiz found roughly one in ten cloud environments touched by the debug and chalk incident within two hours. The technique has shifted: malicious functionality is now split across several innocuous-looking packages that only do anything once combined, plus slopsquatting and prompt injection aimed at AI code scanners.Stories covered:• https://www.darkreading.com/application-security/ai-generated-patches-fail-half-time• https://www.securityweek.com/over-2500-organizations-impacted-by-litellm-supply-chain-attack/• https://www.anthropic.com/news/investigating-incidents-cybersecurity-evals• https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/amazon-identifies-north-korean-hacker-group-behind-open-source-supply-chain-attacks/Chapters:0:00 Back from Black Hat3:31 AI-generated patches fix vulnerabilities about half the time6:23 What is the human success rate?10:53 LiteLLM supply chain attack13:03 Pin your dependencies15:59 Anthropic models reached real systems during evals22:12 This is a lab test, not a threat report27:06 North Korea behind the debug, chalk and axios compromises30:59 Malware assembled from harmless-looking parts33:27 Clever people on the other side of the fenceThe Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast — a podcast about cybersecurity and the people that keep the internet safe.

In this episode, Ray Cochrane breaks down NVIDIA’s case for world action models, the shift that swaps a robot’s picture-describing backbone for one trained to predict what happens next. He also covers Perseverance closing in on the off-world driving record, a derelict SpaceX rocket stage hitting the Moon, and Anthropic’s rework of Claude Fable 5’s biology safeguards. Finally, he digs into Gemini Omni, Google’s undisclosed trip-planning rankings, the Danube’s record low, and iFixit’s call for Apple to unlock the iPad bootloader. – Want to start a podcast?

Wildfires in Eastern Oregon made for a rough week of heavy smoke, and a local building burned down, which he calls a real tragedy. Meanwhile, his work at Blubrry has centered on PowerPress fixes, where reproducing customer-reported bugs remains the biggest headache. Support tickets rarely carry enough detail, and the errors themselves are often too vague to diagnose. Consequently, he is leaning toward a stronger logging and error layer, and he asks experienced developers to share what actually works for them. Beyond VLAs: NVIDIA’s Case for World Action Models The featured story comes from NVIDIA’s developer blog, and it answers a question sitting underneath this year’s robot news. Why do robot arms fall apart the moment anything changes? Move a cup six inches, swap its shape, or change the lighting, and a policy that worked perfectly in training fails. The answer, according to NVIDIA, is not the robot but the model underneath it. For the last few years, the dominant approach has been the vision-language-action model, or VLA, built on an AI that originally learned to describe pictures. Consequently, it recognizes a banana it has never seen, in a kitchen it has never seen, yet it has no idea what that banana will do next. As the article puts it, such a model “does not learn what happens to a mug when the gripper closes, how a towel folds, where an object lands when released.” Because the physics never arrives with the model, every scrap of it has to come out of hand-recorded demonstrations. The proposed fix swaps the foundation entirely. Instead of building on a model that learned to caption images, a world action model builds on one trained to predict how video continues, so the physics is already paid for. Notably, these models output an action and a prediction of what the robot’s cameras will see, in the same pass. Cochrane likens it to forethought, imagining your own motion as you make it. NVIDIA’s implementation is Cosmos 3, pretrained on roughly 767 million images and 348 million videos of real-world dynamics. It ships in 4, 16, and 64 billion parameter sizes named Edge, Nano, and Super, and it runs in real time on a Jetson Thor board bolted to the robot itself. Cochrane recalls his dad owning one of those Jetson boards, and he asks anyone working in robotics to explain how the throughput figures fit together. However, he closes on an open question: where did 348 million videos actually come from? For deeper detail, he points listeners to the source article and to NVIDIA researcher Jim Fan.

Perseverance Closes In on the Off-World Driving Record Ars Technica reports that NASA’s Perseverance rover is about to take the record for most distance driven on another world. The mark sits at roughly 28 miles, set by NASA’s own Opportunity rover across more than fourteen years before it went quiet in 2018. As Cochrane works out on air, that averages about two miles a year. Perseverance will pass it in roughly five years instead. The difference is a navigation system called AutoNav. Since a radio signal takes several minutes to reach Mars, earlier rovers crept along pre-plotted routes and stopped every half meter to think. Perseverance carries a second computer dedicated to processing what its cameras see, so it plans while the wheels keep turning. Consequently, about ninety percent of its driving is autonomous, against roughly ten percent for Curiosity, and it averages around 110 meters an hour rather than 15 to 18. Cochrane notes researchers finding the rover at planned sites days ahead of schedule, and he wonders aloud whether world action models might drive the next one. A SpaceX Rocket Stage Slammed Into the Moon Next, Smithsonian Magazine covered the Falcon 9 upper stage that struck the Moon on August 5. That stage flew back in January 2025, carrying Firefly’s Blue Ghost and ispace’s Resilience landers, and it was never meant to end up there. SpaceX’s Julianna Scheiman says a mixture of solar activity and gravity nudged the derelict onto a lunar path after nineteen months adrift. Four tonnes of dead hardware arrived at about 5,400 miles per hour. Nobody watched it happen, and the reason is a nice bit of physics. It struck sunlit ground near a crater called Einstein, and no impact flash has ever been detected on the lit part of the Moon. However, the instruments caught the aftermath. South Korea’s Danuri orbiter imaged a dark new mark, while the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope picked up sodium and lithium in the plume, the lithium possibly shed by the rocket itself. Astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell quipped that he has “Sir Isaac Newton’s personal assurance that it did indeed hit the moon,” while planetary scientist Hannah Sargeant warns against making a habit of it. Cochrane points out the Apollo landing sites are still sitting up there. Anthropic Reworks Claude Fable 5’s Biology Safeguards Anthropic published a post on how Claude Fable 5 handles biology questions, and the bind is genuine. Biology is the textbook dual-use problem, since the knowledge behind reading your own lab results also helps someone build a weapon. Rather than refusing outright, a classifier watches for risky requests and quietly reroutes them to Claude Opus 5, a capable model without Fable 5’s biological depth. Anthropic calls that mechanism a fallback. The trouble was how often it fired on people doing nothing wrong. This update cut biology-related fallbacks by roughly 85 percent in Anthropic’s own testing, with expected overall drops of 67 percent on Claude.ai and 55 percent on Cowork. Genuinely dual-use territory still trips it, and Anthropic names virology, toxicology, and molecular design. Cochrane hit the old behavior himself and found it irritating, so he welcomes the refinement. Even so, he would rather see a false positive than a model helping someone produce a virus. Five Builders Put Gemini Omni Through Its Paces Google highlighted five builders working with Gemini Omni. Omni is a model rather than an app, and it generates video from text, images, other video, or audio, while also editing footage you already have. Google claims it “combines an intuitive understanding of physics with Gemini’s real-world knowledge,” citing gravity, kinetic energy, and fluid dynamics. As Cochrane observes, that is the same bet NVIDIA is making with robots, only pointed at video generation instead. He also flags a naming collision worth knowing about. NVIDIA calls its architecture an omni-model while Google’s product is simply Omni, two different things landing in the same week. Additionally, he encourages listeners to watch the demos, though he still senses a disconnect in AI-generated video and concedes that knowing its origin may color the impression. Gemini Wants to Plan Your Vacation Another Gemini piece, a how-to on trip planning, drew Cochrane’s sharpest take of the night. Gemini plugs straight into Google Maps, Flights, and Hotels, pulling live locations, reviews, and prices to build an itinerary. Switch on a feature called Personal Intelligence, and it reads across your Google apps, turning a messy trip-planning email chain into a clean master plan. Clever, but he calls it extremely concerning. Once these become services, he expects partnerships to quietly push particular hotels, restaurants, resorts, and destinations onto users. Notably, Google’s post never explains how any of it gets ranked, and the words sponsored, ad, affiliate, commission, and paid never appear once. There is no disclosure of a commercial arrangement, and no denial of one either. Meanwhile the post hands readers off to Viator to book tours without describing that relationship at all. Cochrane suspects the real effect shows up slowly, in the shape of small businesses continuing to disappear. The Senate Blocks a Rule on Who Controls Research Money Science reports that the Senate passed a temporary spending bill in the early hours of Saturday the 8th. The Senate’s version carries a one-paragraph rider the House version lacks, and that rider stops the White House Office of Management and Budget from finalizing a set of proposed rules. OMB builds the president’s budget, clears agency regulations, and controls how approved money actually reaches agencies. The bill itself is a stopgap, which prevents a shutdown without settling anything. The rules reach every organization that takes federal money, a pot of roughly $1.1 trillion across 41 agencies, about $150 billion of it research grants. They would let political appointees second-guess which grants get funded, allow awarded grants to be pulled when the work does not match presidential priorities, and put several countries off limits for research partnerships, China first among them. Senator Susan Collins pushed the block through after telling OMB director Russell Vought the proposal was deeply flawed, noting nearly 500,000 public comments, the vast majority opposed. However, the 90-6 vote is not law. Both chambers are on recess. Vought reportedly said the rule would not have been finalized before December anyway, and the block only lasts as long as the stopgap, which expires December 11. The Danube Falls to a Record Low ESA published a pair of Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite images showing the same bend of the Danube, 45 kilometers upstream of Budapest, photographed a year apart. Cochrane calls the before-and-after shocking, going from green to brown completely. Wire reports put the Budapest gauge near 10 centimeters at the start of the month, about four inches of water, against a previous record of 33 centimeters set in 2018. The knock-on effects arrived fast. Budapest ran short on both power and drinking water, while the shrinking flow concentrated pollution in what remained. Romania hit record lows on its own stretch as well. Cochrane hopes the recovery is already underway. What a Heatwave Actually Does to the Power Grid That river story runs directly into a Carbon Brief factcheck. Nuclear plants cool themselves with river water, so when the Danube dropped, plants in Hungary and Romania throttled back and pulled roughly 2.5 gigawatts off the grid. Romania declared a state of alert in its energy sector, and its navy reportedly used explosives to steer more water toward a plant intake. Carbon Brief then walked through what heatwaves do to each way of making electricity. Nuclear loses efficiency when the cooling water is already warm, though its shutdowns are mostly regulatory rather than mechanical. Gas turbines pull in less air because hot air is thinner, costing capacity. Wind falls off hardest, since a heatwave is a big stalled dome of high pressure and nearly still air. Solar is the surprise: cells genuinely do get less efficient as they heat up, yet total output climbs anyway, with UK solar up 46 percent during a four-day June heatwave against the week before. Butterflies Are on the Move Everywhere A new study in Nature Ecology and Evolution covered 1,758 butterfly species, roughly one in ten of every species we have named. The team pulled 6,182 records from 105 countries, reading non-English research alongside 68 expert write-ups. Four out of five species pushed into new territory, and about 79 percent of the logged shifts traced back to climate change and extreme weather. Separately, 27 percent saw their range shrink somewhere, and 22 percent moved up or down a mountain slope chasing cooler air. That sounds like good news, and it really is not. Expansion means a boundary moved, not that butterflies are thriving, since a species can push its northern edge forward while its southern edge quietly collapses. Lead author Shawan Chowdhury says the shifts turn up on every continent where butterflies occur. Additionally, monitoring gaps leave Central Africa, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and the Amazon Basin barely counted at all. Cochrane recalls hearing years ago that butterflies were disappearing in Hawaii, and he invites listeners spotting unfamiliar species locally to contribute what they see. Primates Make Friends Across Species Cochrane called this one a fun find. A study in the journal Primates, led by Cyril Grueter at Oxford, gathered 427 documented cases going back to the 1970s across 88 primate species and 127 partner species. Play and grooming dominated at 139 and 136 cases, alongside carrying, huddling, food sharing, and even adoption. Primates usually started the interactions themselves, with juveniles playing most, adult females handling grooming and caregiving, and adult males least likely to join in. The examples are remarkable. Japanese macaques on the island of Yakushima groom sika deer and climb on their backs, a silverback gorilla cradled a tiny wild bushbaby, and wild capuchins in Brazil adopted an infant marmoset in a bond that held for weeks. However, Grueter rejects the pet-keeping headline and prefers the hedged term proto-pet keeping. The actual claim is smaller and more interesting: curiosity, tolerance, caregiving, and play have roots running far deeper than humans do. iFixit Tells Apple to Unlock the iPad Finally, an opinion piece from Charlie Sorrel at iFixit struck a chord. This fall, iPadOS 27 drops support for a batch of older iPads, including the 8th-generation iPad, the third-generation Air, the fifth-generation mini, and the first-generation iPad Pros. Cochrane owns one of those Pros and reports it still works fine. Those devices will not break, but they stop getting OS and security updates until apps abandon them and the battery gives out. The obvious second life is Linux, except the bootloader stays locked. Apple’s iBoot will not load anything else, unlike a Mac, a PC, or most Android phones. Sorrel argues it “should be a user choice, not a vendor choice,” and Cochrane agrees flatly. You own the device, so why does Apple decide what runs on it? He compares the situation to jailbreaking, and he suspects most consumers have never pushed back simply because it never occurs to them. Nevertheless, he hopes an unlock eventually breathes new life into hardware that still works perfectly well.

In a shocking revelation, the Secret Service's extraordinary measures to protect the President from a credible threat by Iranian terrorists have left the media fuming. The President's detail went to great lengths to deceive the press, moving the President to a different plane while keeping the media on the original aircraft. This move put reporters in harm's way, but it was a necessary risk to ensure the President's safety. The media's reaction is a perfect example of their priorities being skewed. This episode delves into the world of politics and media, where the lines between truth and deception are often blurred. Larry discusses the recent primary elections in Wisconsin and Michigan, where the polls were proven wrong, and the actual results were a surprise to many. The conversation also touches on the media's role in shaping public opinion and the importance of questioning the information presented to us. Larry also shares his thoughts on the recent controversy surrounding Dr. Fauci and the COVID-19 vaccine. The episode also covers the story of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's decision to freeze her eggs, which sparked a heated debate about her personal life and motivations. Larry shares his thoughts on the matter and raises questions about the media's obsession with Ocasio-Cortez's personal life. Additionally, the conversation touches on the importance of transparency in government and the need for accountability in public health officials.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's no secret that voters are increasingly disgusted by today's extremist, right-wing Republican lawmakers. But less known is the fact that extremist GOP lawmakers are even more disgusted by you voters!They're so disgusted that a top legislative priority of Republican leaders in the White House, Congress, and state legislatures is to rig election rules, literally to rule-out issues and voters they don't like. For example, Republicans in Missouri (the “Show Me” State) showed us what they're made of by attempting to kill the people's right to amend their state's constitution. Missouri and 25 other states have long provided a citizen-led initiative process so the people can propose and pass their own laws, rather than always depending on politicians to “do what's right.” Yes – it's direct democracy!But the people (damn them!) have been passing things like providing health care for the poor and raising the minimum wage. So, “No-no!” screeched Republican leaders and corporate lobbyists, who otherwise control the entire state government. In a perversion of people power, they wrote a ballot initiative that, effectively, would leave direct democracy “dead” in Missouri.Clever, huh? Use the initiative process to kill the initiative process.But the people rallied, exposed the fraud, and in a massive turnout of voters in last week's elections 80 percent – 80 percent! – rejected the establishment's anti-democracy ploy.Missourians showed ‘em – but anti-democracy elites are now pushing direct-voter bans in 15 other states, including Arizona, Florida, the Dakotas, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Utah.

I'm so glad to welcome back my friend Kim O for her third appearance on the show. Kim is a relational soul coach and author who works directly with ROGD-affected teens and their parents — one of a very small handful of people doing work that closely mirrors my own. In this conversation, we dig into what it actually looks like to believe in your child's soul when everything about their behavior is screaming at you to panic.Kim shares how shifting from fear and worry energy to genuine belief in her own son's potential transformed their relationship — and how she now coaches families to do the same. We explore what I call strategic and what Kim calls clever: non-threatening, indirect approaches that plant seeds of growth without triggering the ego defenses that gender ideology has shored up in these kids. We talk about the power of fun and play in rebuilding connection, the danger of suggestion-based parenting, setting real boundaries around devices, and why personality typing tools like the Enneagram can actually give girls a healthier outlet for the same identity-seeking impulse that gender ideology exploits. Kim also introduces her new parent and teen workbook journals, designed to create structured moments of connection and self-reflection for families who don't know where to begin.Kim O is a Relational Soul Coach and author. She utilizes Conscious Principles, Presence, and Authenticity Mapping to awaken you to your greatest power, your Conscious Authentic Self. Through inner child work and profound mindset strategies from the stoics and sages, unhealthy coping mechanisms diminish, leaving your empowerment and high relational intelligence in the wake.

Harvey and Katie are 23-year-old British backpackers travelling around the country in a Toyota Prado and enjoying Park Runs every weekend of their journey. But when their bank account started to dwindle, they decided to bet on themselves and take on the Airlie Beach and Yeppoon half-marathons to win some prize money. After we spoke about them early on in the week, we knew they'd be making their way to Brisbane, so decided to invite them into the studio to race our very own Nick. "She's rapid.

Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Charlie Puth has spent the last decade topping charts with hits like “See You Again,” “Attention” and “We Don't Talk Anymore”. He also shares about performing the national anthem at the 2026 Super Bowl, drawing inspiration from Whitney Houston's iconic rendition. Puth sits down with Willie Geist at a New York City jazz club to discuss his fourth studio album, “Whatever's Clever,” an orchestral pop record influenced by late 1980s and early 1990s yacht rock, while reflecting on the pivotal moments that shaped his rise from accidental pop star to global headliner. Plus, he opens up about a recent conversation with former President Barack Obama about the importance of music education, how Taylor Swift's “The Tortured Poets Department” lyric pushed him to be more vulnerable and how marriage and fatherhood have reshaped his songwriting.

Listen along as we continue through 2 Peter. Notes//Quotes: 2 Peter 2:1-3 - Faith Title: Clever Stories “Christianity would then be evaporated of its essence and consist of little more than a vague reverence for “God.” Certain strands of the ecumenical movement err in just this direction. In the interests of Christian unity, they reduce the faith to its lowest possible common denominator.” - Douglas Moo “In essentials unity; in nonessentials, liberty; and in all things, charity.” - Rupertus Meldenius Apostles Creed: I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; [he descended to the dead.] On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. (ELLC) “Anxiety is a truly remarkable thing. Maya walks home alone, like iron on the outside but a house of cards inside. The slightest little breeze is all it takes. Today it was the line in the cafeteria. The crowd. Someone backed into her accidentally; she doesn't know the boy's name, and he didn't even notice. They hardly touched each other. It wasn't his fault. But Maya was plunged back into hell again in an instant…Anxiety. It's such a peculiar thing. Almost everyone knows what it feels like, yet none of us can describe it. Maya looks at herself in the mirror, wonders why it can't be seen on the outside. Not even on X-rays how does that work? How can something that bangs away at us so horribly hard on the inside not show up on the pictures as black scars, scorched into our skeletons? How can the pain she feels not be visible in the mirror! She's become so good at pretending. Goes to school, sits in classes, does her homework. She plays her guitar, perhaps that helps, unless she's just imagining that. Perhaps her fingers just need to be kept busy. She's looked into the books her dad reads about "mental coaching," and they talk about the brain having to steer the body but that sometimes the reverse is the only way to survive. She's seen depressed adults do the same thing: keep moving, exercising, and cleaning and renovating their summer cottages, finding things that force them to get up in the morning: plants to be watered, errands to be run, anything so they don't have time to think about how.” —Fredrick Backman, Us Against Them

Become a Supporter of The Real Science of Sport, and for the price of a coffee, or a gel, you get a bonus Applied episode every week, ad-free shows, and the best cycling and running community going over on Discourse.Show notesThis week we recap Tadej Pogačar's record-breaking Tour de France, and then get into the meat of it: why anti-doping leans so heavily on investigation and targeted testing, with insights from our interview with Brett Clothier, head of athletics' Athletics Integrity Unit.(02:24) Tadej Pogačar wins a fifth Tour de France in what Ross reckons is the most dominant display he has seen in any sport, and we dig into the numbers behind it, including an estimated 7 W/kg on Alpe d'Huez that obliterates Pantani's old mark, why the yellow jersey was effectively settled by stage six, and why the racing everywhere else still made it a decent watch.(13:55) The weight-loss double standard. Remco Evenepoel reportedly dropped around nine pounds for the Tour with barely a murmur, while Pauline Ferrand-Prévot's weight loss dominated the coverage last year. We ask why the reaction differs by sex, and where the line sits between periodised, medically supervised leanness and a genuine eating-disorder risk.(19:42) That Montmartre finale, with Van der Poel and Pogačar breaking clear on the last climb, van der Poel's heroic's to hold off the chasing pack, and Jasper Philipsen's remarkable judgement to "win" by not winning against his team-mate. Plus, we ponder whether the GC should really be neutralised so early on the final day? We say let them race.(32:37) The headline this week: why testing alone rarely catches the big fish, and why investigation and targeted testing do. Prompted by the furore over 2am and 5am testing at the Tour, we hear from Brett Clothier of the Athletics Integrity Unit, and explain the biological passport, the micro-dosing of EPO, fast-clearance methods, gene-doping fears, and why a genuinely "transparent" statement about a target test is close to impossible without prejudicing everyone involved.(46:26) A look ahead to the women's Tour de France, the contenders including Vollering, Blasi, Niewiadoma, Ferrand-Prévot and Reusser. With storylines galore, it features the return of a time trial, and French TV figures showing the women's race is closer to the men's than you might expect.(51:48) Are the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow still worth watching without the stars? Gareth is won over by the weightlifting, and we ask whether you really need the very best in the world to enjoy sport.(58:49) The Ultimate Championship, athletics' new 10 million dollar, three-night, TV-first format, complete with a black infield, real-time win probabilities, Mondo Duplantis on stadium DJ duty, and no country quotas. We react, and Ross pitches what he would add to the broadcast(64:16) Josh Kerr reveals how the pacing lights were slowed over the final 100 metres of his mile record to create the illusion he was beating them. Clever theatre, or are we being deceived?(67:00) And finally, Discourse member Ana sets off on a 15,000km "big lap" of Australia on her gravel bike. We wish her luck, and start plotting the data she should share with our listener community!LinksThis is the ITA statement during the Tour - it's really all they can say and expecting more is a day dream!The article on gene doping - speculative and sounds like sci-fi, but might it be happeningThe paper on micro-dosing and detection challengesPlugge on how the tests brought doping back to cyclingPreview of the TDF for WomenDetails on the World Athletics Ultimate Championships Hosted on Acast.

Martin, Mirjam www.deutschlandfunk.de, Forschung aktuell
Just qualified — so why does it feel like the learning is only just beginning? What should you actually focus on in year one: the flawless dentistry on your feed, or something far less glamorous? How do you tell a patient their nerve might die — without it sounding like YOUR fault? And when a patient says “just do whatever you think” — what do you say back? This is the conversation every new dentist needs and every experienced one recognises. Our guest is Dr Emma Hutchison — a former dental nurse who trained at the University of Glasgow, and has been the face of the Protrusive Students series across her studies. We recorded in her final weeks of dental school, right on the threshold of practice, and talked through everything the syllabus skips: the safe-beginner mindset, what to learn (and what to ignore) early on, how to protect your standards under time pressure, which cases to take on, and how to talk to patients about risk, cost and consent so the words actually land. If you're fresh out, this one hits hard. If you're an oldie, it's a trip down memory lane — and a reminder of how far you've come. https://youtu.be/gjJiDVP4w-4 Watch PDP276 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Predict the Complication Before It Happens A communication pearl for every deep restoration. When a filling sits close to the nerve — a big cavity, a crack — name the likely complication before it happens. Show the patient the images, then tell them what to expect: a twinge to cold or hot that can linger a few days, so keep taking painkillers and keep the area clean. And warn them what a red flag looks like: a severe throbbing ache keeping them up at night, or pain out of the blue without eating or drinking, means the nerve is struggling and they should call you. Do this and, if the complication ever arrives, you look like the expert who called it — not someone something went wrong for. Skip it and reception fields the panicked calls instead. It reassures the patient, lowers your callback rate, and quietly reduces your risk profile. Obvious, easy to forget, and worth saying out loud every single time. What You'll Take From This Episode The safe-beginner mindset — why qualifying is the driving licence, not the destination, and how the happiest dentists keep getting 1% better. Just-in-time learning — study for the cases actually in your diary, not the obscure pathology you won't meet for years. Get good before you get fast — master the bread and butter, protect a little extra time early, and reflect on every procedure. Clever hacks vs cutting corners — how to tell the difference, and why every shortcut quietly rewires the habit. Consent that works — getting patients to own the problem, and giving a clear recommendation instead of a fifteen-item menu. Highlights of This Episode 00:00 Teaser 01:05 The Things Dental School Doesn’t Prepare You For 03:05 Communication Pearl: Predict the Complication Before It Happens 05:35 Life as a Final-Year Dental Student on Outreach 09:55 Why You’re Only a “Safe Beginner” When You Qualify 13:45 Master Bread-and-Butter Dentistry Before the Fancy Stuff 16:05 Just-in-Time Learning: Study for the Cases in Front of You 18:05 Get Good Before You Get Fast (and Protect Your Time) 19:45 Clever Hacks vs Cutting Corners: Don’t Lose Your Standards 24:14 Midroll 27:46 The Skills to Nail in Your First Year as a Dentist 30:11 Which Cases to Take On — and Learning From Mistakes 35:46 How to Explain Risk and Get Patients to Own the Problem 41:26 When Patients Refuse the Ideal Treatment: Start With Their Goal 44:26 Treatment Planning Without the Overwhelm: Loom & “Guess Who” 47:36 Claim Your CPD & Become the Next Protrusive Student 47:38 Outro Dr Emma Hutchison came to dentistry the long way round — from a dental nursing background into dental school at the University of Glasgow, with final-year outreach on the Kintyre peninsula in Campbeltown. She has been the face of the Protrusive Students series throughout her studies, and this episode marks her crossing from student to newly qualified dentist. On behalf of the whole Protruserati: we're proud of you, Emma. Become the next Protrusive Student: with Emma qualifying, we're looking for the next keen student who wants part-time work, an income while studying, and to contribute to Protrusive — or a nudge if you know one.

AGD Subject Code: 770 Self-Improvement Aim & Learning Outcomes Aim: To give early-career dentists a practical framework for the transition from dental school to independent practice — how to keep developing, how to protect clinical standards under time pressure, and how to communicate risk and treatment options as part of valid consent. Learning Outcomes — by the end of this episode, dentists will be able to: Apply a “just-in-time” approach to continuing development, prioritising the competencies relevant to the cases in front of them over isolated advanced techniques. Differentiate time-saving efficiencies from quality-compromising shortcuts, and describe strategies to maintain clinical standards early in practice. Apply structured communication techniques to explain procedural risk, establish a patient's treatment goal, and make a clear, defensible recommendation as part of valid consent.
In this latest episode of Biographers in Conversation, Dr Martin Thomas chats with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about Clever Men: How Worlds Collided on the Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land of 1948. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Martin Thomas's research began in the ABC's sound archive, where he stumbled upon recordings made during the 1948 American Australian Scientific Expedition to Arnhem Land, an expedition he had never heard of. Martin chose the group biography form to capture the expedition's internal tensions. Frank Setzler led the collection of human remains from Indigenous mortuary sites, shipping them to the Smithsonian. Martin describes this as a kind of kidnapping: displaced spirits in a foreign land. Martin made repeated research trips to Arnhem Land, showing digitised expedition films and recordings to community elders. Old men wept with joy at seeing ancestors and ceremonies on film. Clever Men ends in the early 21st century with the repatriation of the human remains, led by the late elder Jacob Nayinggull, a man Martin describes as one of the true clever men of the story, and one of his most important mentors. The title's double meaning Clever Men is an Aboriginal English term for a shaman or spiritual healer. Martin explains how the title emerged from an incident in which local Arnhem Land people watched a mammalogist shoot, skin and stuff animals, concluding this westerner must be a powerful clever man from another world. The irony is intentional. Biography assumes a Western sense of self: names, birth dates, individual identity. In Bininj and Yolŋu culture, the dead aren't named during mourning, numerical dates aren't used, and the self is understood through a spirit that belongs to country and returns to it.

Jump off that social media hamster wheel. An easier way to gain lasting visibility and credibility is with an often-forgotten-about marketing tool - awards. Yes, business awards! They're much more than a nice-to-have trophy. If you use this strategy correctly, awards are a savvy, long-term tool to build trust, raise your profile, and open up new opportunities. Many women look at business awards and think, “That's not for me, I'm not ready yet” or “Those are for other people, who have done more than me.” And that's why they're the biggest 'missed opportunity' out there! I'm joined in this episode by Lauren Clemett, founder of the Audacious Agency and an absolute whiz when it comes to using awards to boost your business. Lauren's background in branding and her years of experience as both an entrant and a judge make her the perfect person to bring some clarity and honest advice to the world of business awards. Here's a taste of what we covered: Why are awards such a powerful marketing tool? What stops most women from entering awards, and should you wait for “the right time”? What separates a meaningful, respected awards program from the ones that just want your entry fee? How do you pick the right awards for your goals? The biggest mistakes people make when applying... and, How can you actually use your award (or nomination!) to build your profile and create content that lasts far beyond the awards night? Ready for a practical, myth-busting, and genuinely inspiring look at what awards can do for your business? Grab your coffee and tune in! About our guest: Lauren heads up The Audacious Agency, a premier profile building and award writing specialist company. A global thought leader in personal branding, with over three decades of experience in brand management and a reputation as a sought-after keynote speaker, Lauren empowers entrepreneurs and business owners to build powerful personal brands.

Plus, we rank our favorite white male (and non-binary) pop stars on a tier list, discuss the bratty petulant vibe that Charlie had during his voice notes era, how the album operates as a parallel to Carly Rae Jepsen's EMOTION, how Puth matures and ages into an adult musician with his album “Whatever's Clever!”, and more!0:00 the white male (and non-binary) pop star tier list13:44 relationship to Charlie Puth21:58 Charlie Puth's Vibe25:39 Charlie Puth = Drake?27:23 What do we want from male pop stars?37:01 Voicenotes themes?37:59 Voicenotes themes44:18 whatever's clever themes54:19 Charlie Puth is taskmaster57:11 empty cups58:17 boy and slow it down59:32 the way I am1:01:38 if you leave me now1:03:09 attention1:06:32 Dakotas highlights and lowlights1:08:49 beat yourself up1:09:55 love in exile / until it happens to you1:11:32 I used to be cringe1:13:32 final thoughts and ratings1:17:02 Charlie Puth on the tier listPATREON SUPPORTERSSamuel LeeCarissa ZaffiroStenley PhilippeJon ButtsTanner Richard CraftSean WilkinsonSpencer RoystonSubscribe to our "I've Been Meaning To Watch That" Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/IBMTLTTSOURCES: The Charlie Puth Interview by Rick Beatohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1ynEx-xiN0&t=1813sCharlie Puth talks How Long, Voicenotes and Adam Levine by Zach Sang Showhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKQURQVuMIY&t=1224sKanye's Father Issues (Jesus is King): Professor Skye's Record Review #199 by Professor Skye's Record Reviewhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_vSVwI8710&t=464sBuy Fran's Book "The Field Guide To Nepo Babies": https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/fran-hoepfner/the-field-guide-to-nepo-babies/9781523530205/?lens=workman-publishing-companyFollow Harper Thomson on Instagram (@harpingabout)Follow Jon Butts on Instagram (@jonbuttsishere)Follow Dakota Foss on Instagram (@down_with_fun)Follow Andrew Ambrose Lee on Instagram (@andrewambroselee)Follow Stenley Philippe on Instagram (@snapasten)Follow Stefanie Senior on Instagram (@stefmsenior)Cover Art by Megan Rika Young ( Instagram: @meganrika)Theme Song by OTNES (Instagram: @mxotnes)Follow us at (@ibmtltt) on Tiktok & Instagram, and email us at ivebeenmeaningtolistentothat@gmail.comPlease leave us a rating or review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Have a good daaay!

Her parents met while working at WNYC, so from birth she was nurtured with love and appreciation for radio. As a teenager, Avery took to expressing herself through wild, quirky thrifted fashion ensembles, much to the confusion of her peers. After cutting her audio teeth in college radio, Avery submitted a midnight application to intern at 99% Invisible and moved across the country to work in a closet with Roman Mars in beautiful downtown Oakland. When 99pi and the field of podcasting blew up, Avery was on the rocket ship. She's since created an acclaimed 2-season series, Articles of Interest, around iconic items of clothing – which makes her teenage sartorial obsessions all add up – and worked on Nice Try! and The Cut. She's a dynamic and thoughtful voice in the podcasting landscape, as always, making distinctive and bold style choices.Images and more from Avery Trufelman on our website!Clever is hosted & produced by Amy Devers, with editing by Mark Zurawinski, production assistance from Ilana Nevins and Anouchka Stephan, and music by El Ten Eleven.SUBSCRIBE - listen to Clever on any podcast app!SIGN UP - for our Substack for news, bonus content, new episode alertsVISIT - cleverpodcast.com for transcripts, images, and 200+ more episodesSAY HI! - on Instagram & LinkedIn @cleverpodcast @amydevers Hosted on Acast.

Along the way he deconstructs the methods to his madness and expounds on the popularity of his trilogy of design documentaries: Helvetica, Objectified and Urbanized. Plus he teases a bit about his forthcoming doc about Dieter Rams, and confesses that an early disdain for avocados didn't prevent him from capitalizing on their market-appeal.

We kick off the episode by celebrating National Outdoor Equipment Maintenance Day before diving into our recent weekends. Erin recaps her trip to the local Kempton Fair, complete with tractor pulls, upcoming frog jumping contests, and a ride operator broadcasting on TikTok Live. Erin then details her chaotic but ultimately amazing trip to Cellar Beast Winehouse in Andreas, Pennsylvania, where she tackled wine-tasting etiquette, judged an entitled millionaire, and discovered a phenomenal $65 bottle of wine. We also share a quick pull-up progress update, announcing Erin's new ability to hang unassisted and move around the bar, a skill she absolutely plans to show off when we attend the USATF Outdoor Championships. Finally, we give a quick merch update on our premium, sturdy NonMembers Only koozies and the Team Struggle Run shirts that Dan is actively packing and shipping. In tech news, we review Snapchat's new augmented reality Spectacles, which look so clunky they seem like a joke and apparently caused the company's stock to plummet. Moving into the running world, we review the viral antics of "The 5K Guy" running inside a fridge and an oven, another creator completing a marathon without touching the ground using lawn chairs, and Matt Planks holding an agonizing two-hour and 28-minute plank for the Aerial Recovery Group. We also touch on the Cape Town Marathon joining the World Marathon Majors, the London Marathon expanding to a massive two-day event, and our fears about private equity firm L Catterton purchasing the indoor fitness race Hyrox. We even highlight a crazy story out of the Netherlands where a marathon was postponed because organizers accidentally hired a serial fake ambulance worker. Oh, and we definitely need to secure press passes to the Estonian Bus Driver Championships. For our FIFA segment, we discuss the two lucky fans getting paid $50,000 to watch all 104 World Cup matches inside a glass cube in Times Square. We also applaud the clever marketing tactics of brands like Levi's and Gillette, who creatively covered up their stadium logos with white outlines and foam shaving cream to comply with strict FIFA rules. After sharing how heartwarming it is to see Americans welcoming international soccer fans with open arms—from the Algerian national team in Kansas to Scottish fans in Boston—we wrap up with our "No Bad, No Sad" segment. This week, we highlight an NYPD officer who brought joy to the chaotic Knicks parade by playing a massive game of tic-tac-toe with fans across the street barricades, and we send a special shoutout to Knox crushing it on the kazoo.
On today's show we create alternate reality TV Spinoffs of some of our favorite TV shows. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: What Fox's Roku Acquisition Signals For Local Broadcast Wurl Chief Warns FAST Business Model Is 'Fundamentally Flawed' Walmart in reported $1.4 billion deal to acquire connected TV ad platform Google Home will soon get better at recognizing you Other: Pioneer SPHERA car stereo review Clever Spinoffs to Our Favorite TV Shows HBO Max is making a clever spinoff from "The Big Bang Theory" called "Stuart Fails to Save the Universe". The show follows comic book store owner Stuart Bloom from The Big Bang Theory in a new series where he attempts - and apparently fails - to save the universe, staying true to his unlucky nature. The spinoff consists of ten episodes, streaming every Thursday at 9 PM. It debuts July 23 on HBO Max . So this got us thinking about some cool spinoffs with quirky characters from other shows we've watched over the years. Here are three clever spinoff concepts in the same spirit as Stuart Fails to Save the Universe: Jack Bauer from 24 Title: 24/7 After finally retiring from CTU, Jack Bauer is forced to take a mundane job as head of security at a mid-sized suburban office park in Los Angeles — mostly to keep his health insurance. Still operating with the intensity, paranoia, and zero-tolerance policy that once saved the world multiple times, Jack now applies his elite counter-terrorism skills to everyday annoyances: package thieves, passive-aggressive HR Manager, broken printers, and the HOA president who keeps violating noise ordinances. Every episode plays out in real time (a 24-minute comedy format), following Jack as he tackles a new "crisis" — whether it's a missing office dog, a suspected mole in accounting, or an all-out war with the food truck that keeps getting his lunch order wrong. Jack still does dramatic split-screen monologues, tortures (metaphorically) the vending machine, and keeps a "go bag" full of zip ties and protein bars in his desk. His long-suffering team includes a burnt-out millennial assistant, a retired cop who just wants to nap, and his daughter Kim, who keeps trying to get him into therapy. Tagline: He saved the world 8 times. Now he has to survive the corporate retreat. Chandler and Monica of Friends Title: The One Where They're Spies After years of marriage, Chandler Bing and Monica Geller have the perfect cover: a boring, stable suburban life in New Jersey. Chandler works as a "data analyst" for a vague government contractor, and Monica runs a high-end catering business. In reality, they're a highly skilled CIA husband-and-wife operative team. Chandler's deadpan sarcasm and quick wit make him an elite handler and master of undercover personas. Monica's terrifying organizational skills, attention to detail, and competitive nature make her an absolute weapon in logistics, interrogation, and hand-to-hand combat (she once took down three targets with a perfectly thrown fondue fork). While they're out saving the world from international threats, they have to keep their double lives completely hidden from Ross, Rachel, Joey, and Phoebe — who still think Chandler hates his job and Monica is just an obsessive chef. Every episode balances high-stakes spy action with classic Friends-style comedy as the couple frantically tries to explain away their suspicious behavior: "Why do you have a go-bag in the closet?" "Why does Chandler suddenly speak fluent Mandarin?" "Why was Monica gone for three days and came back with a new scar and a Russian accent?" Tagline: They're saving the world… between coffee at Central Perk. Charles Boyle from Brooklyn 99 Title: Boyle After a high-profile case goes sideways, Detective Charles Boyle is transferred to the NYPD's newly formed Unsolved & Unusual Crimes Unit — a ragtag squad that handles cold cases too weird or embarrassing for anyone else. Still the passionate, food-obsessed, emotionally open romantic we know and love, Boyle now channels his legendary enthusiasm into solving the city's strangest unsolved mysteries: everything from a serial killer who leaves gourmet meals at crime scenes to a black-market truffle smuggling ring. He attacks each case with the same intensity he once reserved for perfecting his coq au vin recipe. Backed by a small team of misfits (a jaded ex-homicide detective, a tech genius who only communicates in food puns, and a rookie who idolizes him), Boyle brings both razor-sharp detective work and delightful chaos to every investigation. He still cries during interrogations, quotes obscure food history mid-stakeout, and maintains an emergency "comfort cassoulet" in the precinct fridge. Tagline: He may cry at crime scenes… but he always gets his man.
