They are a true and authentic reflection of the personal experience of the host. Please speak to a healthcare professional before making any changes to your diabetes management, or if you feel you could benefit from emotional support. This is part two of a two part series looking at hybrid closed loop insulin pumps. The first part is a technical overview, so be sure to start there!Ok it's time to get personal about all things hybrid closed loop! At first glance it might not seem like an obvious topic - to talk about the emotional impact of using an automated insulin delivery (AID) system to manage type 1 diabetes... it's technology, right? A gadget? A means to an end?But that ‘means' is a system that has, for me, taken away so much of the wight and number of diabetes decisions, and that ‘end' is not only better health outcomes, but a brighter, happier, calmer human who is better equipped to tackle life in all of its forms - being able to focus at work, spend time with family, or head off on the next adventure.It's not a cure, it's not a magic solution, but it is space between my thoughts, time between my alarms and a version of myself that I'd only ever caught glimpses of in my 28 years of living with type 1 diabetes. In this episode we get reallllly into my journey with type 1 diabetes tools - from injections and finger pricks, to moving onto a ‘regular' pump, and then my most recent switch to hybrid closed loop and the way it has turned down the volume on a lot of the diabetes noise, allowing me to sleep better, live more and just feel more human.So if you're curious about what these gadgets can do for your life, this is the episode for you.Disclaimer: I use the Omnipod 5 insulin pump with the Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitor as my personal AID system.

They are a true and authentic reflection of the personal experience of the host. Please speak to a healthcare professional before making any changes to your diabetes management. What's a hybrid closed loop system? How does Automated Insulin Delivery actually work? Why is everyone talking about it? Is it really as good as everyone says for people with type 1 diabetes? What does artificial pancreas mean?These are the questions I'm hoping to help you with in today's solo episode! This is the first of a two part series digging into my experience of using an automated insulin delivery (AID) system, also known as a hybrid closed loop system, after 18 years on multiple daily injections and nine years on a ‘regular' insulin pump.I chat about the features and functionality of an AID system, specifically the Omnipod 5 with the Dexcom G6 as that's the setup I use and the only setup I have experience of. We cover what the three parts of the system are, how they interact with each other, how I interact with them and how I use the tool in the best way I understand to achieve improved time in range while doing a whole lot less diabetes business.In part two I'll cover the more emotional and psychosocial insights I've been able to gather from using the system after 28 years of living with type 1 diabetes.

The future of battery recycling is a closed loop ecosystem. David Klanecky, CEO of Cirba Solutions joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast for a wide-ranging discussion about the future of battery recycling.With growing demand for critical minerals, geopolitics and fluctuating commodity prices it's vitally important to build out the closed loop ecosystem of battery recycling. Batteries from consumer devices, electric vehicles, and industrial applications can all be recycled and enter a second phase of life if the right protocols are put in place at the end of life of the product.In addition to the environmental benefits of battery recycling, including a reduced carbon footprint and the creation of a closed-loop supply chain for battery materials, there are positive economic implications.Recycled batteries could potentially lower the cost of electric vehicles and other battery-powered devices. For this to happen, a closed loop ecosystem will have to be developed, scaled and monetized.Chapters0:00 Current State of Battery Recycling Market5:24 Quality Control8:13 More Efficient Battery Recycling12:05 Battery Recycling Process17:21 Commodities21:57 Battery Degradation23:16 Recycled Batteries29:08 Maritime Batteries31:14 Solid-State Batteries33:39 Future of Battery Recycling Business36:15 Key Takeaways--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy® is a leading source of data, insight and commentary on autonomous vehicles/trucks and the emerging autonomy economy™.Sign up for This Week in The Autonomy Economy newsletter: https://www.roadtoautonomy.com/autonomy-economy/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
As the accelerating deployment of variable wind and solar resources pushes us ever closer to Net Zero – or the state whereby we're not emitting any more greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere than we are simultaneously removing – we increasingly need to deploy both battery storage as well as dispatchable renewable baseload generation. But despite its ability to serve as dispatchable renewable baseload, geothermal energy today accounts for less than 1% of the world's primary energy supply. In this episode, Chad Reed chats with Jeanine Vany, co-founder and executive vice president of corporate affairs at Eavor, a next generation geothermal energy company based in Calgary, Canada. Jeanine adeptly explains how Eavor's Closed-Loop solution is different and better than traditional geothermal, discusses how Eavor plans to scale its initial projects, details the numerous environmental benefits next generation geothermal can provide and much more.Links:EavorUnderground, Underdog: The Eavor StoryLoonshots by Safi BahcallEpisode recorded June 21, 2024 Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, and Hilary at climatepositive@hasi.com or tweet them to @ClimatePosiPod.

Collaboration: Enhancing Efficiency Through Industry Partnerships Welcome to this week's edition of Scaling UP! H2O, where we explore the critical role of water treatment in optimizing industrial processes. Today, we are privileged to hear from two distinguished guests: Tony Mormino and Justin Lynch. Tony is Technical Sales and Marketing Director for Insight Partners and host of the The Engineers HVAC Podcast specializing in education, while Justin focuses on cooling tower Reconstruction Specialists. Together, they share invaluable insights into collaborative strategies that ensure the best and most cost-effective solutions for cooling towers and closed loop systems. Their discussion focused on the importance of collaboration, cost efficiency, and proactive maintenance in the field of water treatment. Tony and Justin's insights provide a roadmap for water treaters to enhance client outcomes and operational efficiency through strategic partnerships and informed decision-making. What Are the Cost and Efficiency Benefits of Proper Water Treatment? Cost efficiency emerges as a significant topic. Tony Mormino underscores the financial benefits of proper water treatment, citing examples where a modest investment in water treatment can yield substantial savings. "According to the Department of Energy, 40% of a commercial building's energy consumption goes to HVAC systems," explains Tony. "Simply improving water quality can lead to 5-10% savings in energy costs. It's a quick win for green building initiatives." How Do You Prevent Vibrations in Cooling Towers? Bad vibrations in cooling towers can be a significant issue if not addressed early. Justin Lynch highlights the importance of monitoring biological buildup and evaporative salts on the fans. "It's very difficult to do that if you don't catch it early. Let's say we go to a facility with an old tower and an old fan—there's going to be a little bit of biology on top, which is not a big deal. You can brush that off, do a light pressure washing, and it's not going to hurt it," explains Justin. However, the real issue arises when scale develops unevenly on each blade. "At that point, the fan may look horrible, but the tower still operates without vibration. If you clean five out of six blades well but can't get the scale off one blade, you just created a vibration, leading to other issues in the tower." Justin advises that while chemical treatments are effective, they should be done with caution and under professional guidance to avoid exacerbating the problem. This proactive maintenance is less of a concern for newer towers that have had chemical treatment from the start. How Does Air in Closed Loop Chilled Water Systems Affect Performance? Tony Mormino highlights a critical yet often overlooked issue in water treatment: Air in closed loop chilled water systems. This issue not only leads to rust and oxidation but also significantly impacts the system efficiency and longevity. Studies and practical examples underscore the importance of air removal systems: Removing air from the chill water system can result in substantial benefits: Increase in Tonnage Output: Youngstown State University reported a 16% increase in tonnage output, equivalent to 400 additional tons. Improvement in Delta T: From 8.5-10°, enhancing heat transfer efficiency across chiller barrels. Enhanced Building Discharge Air Temperatures: Temperatures improved from 65° to 55°, optimizing HVAC system performance. Reduction in Pump Energy Consumption: A notable 37% reduction in annual KWH requirements due to cleaner water and improved system operation. Moreover, practical cases like at Waukesha Memorial Hospital in Wisconsin showed a 22% reduction in Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) speed, leading to an 85% decrease in corrosion preventative chemical usage. These examples illustrate the direct correlation between air removal and energy savings, reinforcing the significant impact of proper water treatment practices on operational efficiency and cost savings in commercial HVAC systems. How Important is Passivation for Equipment Longevity and Performance? Justin Lynch highlights the critical role of passivation in maintaining equipment longevity, particularly in galvanized towers. "Passivation is essential to prevent corrosion and ensure optimal performance," Justin explains. "For instance, following Marley's guidelines for pH and calcium hardness during passivation can extend the life of galvanized towers significantly." Conclusion In the fast-evolving landscape of industrial water treatment and HVAC systems, collaboration and continuous learning are paramount. Justin Lynch's closing thoughts encapsulate this spirit perfectly: “Don't be afraid to call, don't be afraid to collaborate. You are the expert in your field; I'm supposed to be the expert in mine. There's too much going on in this industry. It's growing too fast for everyone to really understand everything. So, if you don't know, ask questions and learn together. When you can do that together, you build a good network, and customers trust you and respect you after that.” Embracing this collaborative approach not only enhances our expertise but also ensures that we provide the best possible solutions for our customers, fostering trust and respect in our professional relationships.

In today's episode, taken from live recordings at PREMIER 2024, we dive into an increasingly common treatment for type 1 diabetes: hybrid closed loop insulin pumps. We'll begin with a brief overview of traditional insulin pumps and explain how hybrid closed loops are different. The core of our discussion will be centered around three case studies, illustrating potential scenarios you might encounter in a pediatric emergency department and how to manage them effectively. With NICE's recent technology appraisal advocating for universal access to hybrid closed loop systems for all type 1 diabetes patients, it's crucial to understand these devices. Over the next few years, you'll likely encounter these systems frequently. We'll cover the essentials of how these pumps work, their benefits, and potential issues that might arise, such as connectivity problems, cannula issues, and handling intercurrent illnesses. Join us as we explore the revolutionary impact of hybrid closed-loop systems, which offer better glucose control and significantly improve the quality of life for those with type 1 diabetes. Dr Nicola Trevelyan has been the Clinical Lead for the Paediatric Diabetes Service in Southampton for the last 20 years. During this time, she has seen huge changes in the management of CYP with diabetes.

Apple announced Apple intelligence, integrating AI in a very Apple way. They are focusing on on-device AI to align with their privacy philosophy. The features are only available on the most recent Apple Silicon iPhone pro and newer models. The implementation of AI is focused on useful feature-centric applications rather than general AI. Apple's infrastructure play with their own data centers and Apple Silicon has strategic implications and could potentially lead to them becoming a cloud service provider for developers. The closed-loop environment of security and privacy is a key advantage for Apple. The integration of client to cloud with a common software layer is a powerful trend. Other companies like Arm are also exploring this approach.
This week, we speak to another member of the growing Highland Park mafia — Adam Pollock, a cook turned farmer, responsible for supplying some of the best restaurants in the city. Adam grows his produce right here in the heart of Chicago at Closed Loop Farms.

In this episode of the In Vivo podcast, Hakim Yadi, CEO and co-founder of UK techbio company Closed Loop Medicine, discusses how his company is pairing software and predictive analytics with medications old and new to tailor drug dosing to each patient.
Lou Lintereur, Chief Engineer for automated delivery systems at Medtronic Diabetes, brought his knowledge from working as an aerospace engineer at NASA to developing technology for those living with diabetes. He introduces the MiniMed 780G, a closed-loop system that combines an insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor (CGM) with a control algorithm that tailors itself to each patient's unique physiology and Meal Detection technology, which helps manage their blood sugar levels. Patient feedback is essential to the continuing innovation of these hybrid closed-loop tools to manage diabetes. Lou explains, "There are two main challenges we're always trying to deal with, and they kind of compete with each other. One is just the fundamental technology, trying to get the best therapy for the patients and the best outcomes for a long, healthy life where they're feeling good. With respect to diabetes, it's about keeping your blood sugar under as tight a control as possible within a normal glucose range. So that poses the technical challenges of how to design a control system to do that with all the uncertainties of human physiology and so forth." "But on the other side, the systems we make at Medtronic Diabetes are almost consumer products. In order to get the therapy that they need, the patient often has to contribute to the therapy. They need to indicate when they're eating, for example, and then help the system calculate how much they're eating so that they can dose the insulin properly to manage their meals better. It requires some cooperation with the patients. So, on that side of the challenge is, how do you make the system easy enough to use so that the patient can get the best outcomes possible and do as little work as possible? Because the last thing the patient wants to do is be bothered all the time having to manage their therapy." #MedtronicDiabetes #Diabetes #ContinuousGlucoseMonitor #CGM #InsulinPump medtronicdiabetes.com Download the transcript here

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Dangers of Closed-Loop AI, published by Gordon Seidoh Worley on March 22, 2024 on The AI Alignment Forum. In control theory, an open-loop (or non-feedback) system is one where inputs are independent of outputs. A closed-loop (or feedback) system is one where outputs are input back into the system. In theory, open-loop systems exist. In reality, no system is truly open-loop because systems are embedded in the physical world where isolation of inputs from outputs cannot be guaranteed. Yet in practice we can build systems that are effectively open-loop by making them ignore weak and unexpected input signals. Open-loop systems execute plans, but they definitionally can't change their plans based on the results of their actions. An open-loop system can be designed or trained to be good at achieving a goal, but it can't actually do any optimization itself. This ensures that some other system, like a human, must be in the loop to make it better at achieving its goals. A closed-loop system has the potential to self-optimize because it can observe how effective its actions are and change its behavior based on those observations. For example, an open-loop paperclip-making-machine can't make itself better at making paperclips if it notices it's not producing as many paperclips as possible. A closed-loop paperclip-making-machine can, assuming its designed with circuits that allow it to respond to the feedback in a useful way. AIs are control systems, and thus can be either open- or close-loop. I posit that open-loop AIs are less likely to pose an existential threat than closed-loop AIs. Why? Because open-loop AIs require someone to make them better, and that creates an opportunity for a human to apply judgement based on what they care about. For comparison, a nuclear dead hand device is potentially much more dangerous than a nuclear response system where a human must make the final decision to launch. This suggests a simple policy to reduce existential risks from AI: restrict the creation of closed-loop AI. That is, restrict the right to produce AI that can modify its behavior (e.g. self-improve) without going through a training process with a human in the loop. There are several obvious problems with this proposal: No system is truly open-loop. A closed-loop system can easily be created by combining 2 or more open-loop systems into a single system. Systems may look like they are open-loop at one level of abstraction but really be closed-loop at another (e.g. an LLM that doesn't modify its model, but does use memory/context to modify its behavior). Closed-loop AIs can easily masquerade as open-loop AIs until they've already optimized towards their target enough to be uncontrollable. Open-loop AIs are still going to be improved. They're part of closed-loop systems with a human in the loop, and can still become dangerous maximizers. Despite these issues, I still think that, if I were designing a policy to regulate the development of AI, I would include something to place limits on closed-loop AI. A likely form would be a moratorium on autonomous systems that don't include a human in the loop, and especially a moratorium on AIs that are used to either improve themselves or train other AIs. I don't expect such a moratorium to eliminate existential risks from AI, but I do think it could meaningfully reduce the risk of run-away scenarios where humans get cut out before we have a chance to apply our judgement to prevent undesirable outcomes. If I had to put a number on it, such a moratorium perhaps makes us 20% safer. Author's note: None of this is especially original. I've been saying some version of what's in this post for 10 years to people, but I realized I've never written it down. Most similar arguments I've seen don't use the generic language of control theory and instead are ex...

Hey, y'all! I've been thinking about what we do with ashes, whether they be from spells, rituals, home fires, or garden burns. It's just incredibly important to consider what created our ash and how to dispose of it in ways that are both magical and responsible to the environment. Today, I'm running through some of these moments with y'all: and it gets a bit scientific and teachy. Along the way, we also will cover closed loop systems and how they can utilize ash—as well as why they are critical to Witch Folk. Hope you find it helpful!
