Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jim talks about creating a media-safe home. Is technology use, especially social media, bringing your family closer together or farther apart? I have two estranged adult kids. I set some boundaries and now I can't see my grandkids. Should I try to make amends with them? My fiancée's brother is a drug and alcohol abuser, he is in and out of rehab and won't get help for his mental issues. His mother enables him; how can my fiancée talk to her about it? Recently my wife left me while I was out of the country and served me with divorce papers. In the past I betrayed her and went to Every Man's Battle; is it too late to pursue her to reconsider the divorce? Is there hope for my daughter to cope with her verbally abusive ex on a court-appointed parenting app? The app isn't monitored, so he just says whatever he wants, and she has constant PTSD from his abuse.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jacqui encourages us that it’s not too late to start over again when you’re older. Some of the teachings in our new church make me uneasy and anxious; my 20-year-old daughter is dating the pastor’s son. Is my issue with the church or with me letting go of my daughter? How does one move from shame and guilt over past mistakes? How do I accept my 5-month separation that may be headed to divorce? We have only been married four years. I had childhood abuse, and my wife was bounced between 40 foster homes in her youth. Would counseling or coaching be the better fit for parents of an adult child who is neurodivergent?

In this Tyler Tech Podcast episode, Mike Cook, IT director for the city of Redondo Beach, California, shares how his organization is approaching modernization as a foundational shift from aging infrastructure and manual processes to a more stable, automated, and scalable environment. Recorded live at Tyler Connect 2026 in Las Vegas, the conversation highlights Redondo Beach's journey from legacy, on-premises ERP systems to a modern cloud solution, earning the city a Tyler Excellence Award along the way. Like many local governments, Redondo Beach was operating with a highly constrained IT team, aging servers, and outdated software across its technology stack. Frequent downtime, mounting cybersecurity risks, and resource limitations made it increasingly difficult to maintain core systems, let alone improve them. Moving to the cloud helped stabilize the environment, reduce operational risk, and eliminate much of the ongoing maintenance burden that had previously consumed the team's time. With that foundation in place, the city has shifted its focus to modernizing long-standing workflows that remained largely unchanged for nearly two decades. From manual invoice processing and paper-based approvals to broader document digitization efforts, Redondo Beach is now working to streamline operations, introduce automation, and prepare for emerging AI capabilities in a more intentional and strategic way. Throughout the conversation, Mike offers a pragmatic perspective on modernization — emphasizing the importance of aligning technology decisions with business needs, taking a phased approach, and building toward long-term transformation without losing sight of day-to-day service delivery. This episode also highlights the 2026 State CIO Priorities Playbook, designed to help government leaders turn strategy into action. The playbook provides practical insights, real-world examples, and actionable guidance across top priorities like AI, cybersecurity, modernization, accessibility, and digital services. 2026 State CIO Priorities Playbook: From Planning to Execution: Turning Priorities Into Progress And learn more about the topics discussed in this episode with these resources: Download: NASCIO 2026 State CIO Top 10 Priorities Download: AI for Impact: Proven Results for Government Download: Modern Governments Live in the Cloud Download:Building a Resilient Government Watch:What Our Clients Are Saying About PACE Read:ERP Partnership That Deliver Results Read:How Digital Services Shape Public Trust in Local Government Listen to other episodes of the podcast.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Marc shares about Father's Day and estranged children. Ask yourself, “Can I accept who the other person is and not who I would like them to be, and can I make that first move towards peace?” I was estranged from my 22-year-old son for over 2 years, and now we're reconciled. Don't give up–pray! I moved back to help my elderly dad who has cancer. I haven't spoken to my brother in years; what can I do to get us back together? After prison and living in a sober living house, I have been sober for over a year. How can I begin to repair things with my partner? He has been so supportive but has huge trust issues. I've tried to set a boundary by asking for a separation, and my emotionally abusive husband said if I don't like it, file for divorce. What should I do as a Christian?

The 7 Principles of Successful Partnering in the Age of AI Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://theultimatepartner.com/ebook-subscribe/Check Out UPX:https://theultimatepartner.com/experience/ In this engaging session, Vince Menzione reflects on his extensive career transitioning from direct enterprise sales to building massive channel ecosystems, while unveiling the seven core operating principles essential for modern partnering. Highlighting tectonic industry shifts—from the PC and Cloud eras to the current AI revolution—Vince explains how traditional playbooks are becoming obsolete and why adopting a growth mindset, modeled by leaders like Satya Nadella, is critical for survival. He delves into the rising importance of hyperscaler marketplaces and co-selling, urging leaders to cultivate adaptability (AQ), emotional intelligence (EQ), and mutual trust to thrive in this rapidly changing tech landscape. https://youtu.be/5n8dqiamnmE Key Takeaways Traditional industry playbooks are outdated almost immediately due to the rapid acceleration of AI and market changes. Implementing a “growth mindset” is a foundational operating principle that can transform corporate culture and drive massive valuation increases. Executive commitment and clarity of vision are mandatory for aligning an entire organization around successful partnering. Building a strong brand story and maintaining a maniacal focus on OKRs turns strategic vision into executed results. The technology landscape has experienced massive tectonic shifts from the PC era to the Cloud, Mobile, and now AI, requiring high adaptability (AQ). Mutual trust remains the non-negotiable foundation for any successful professional relationship or partnership. If you're ready to lead through change, elevate your business, and achieve extraordinary outcomes through the power of partnership—this is your community. At Ultimate Partner® we want leaders like you to join us in the Ultimate Partner Experience – where transformation begins.

[00:00:12] Vince Menzione: We just came back from Ultimate Partner live in Bellevue, Washington, where we hosted incredible leaders for two amazing days. Come join us for this next session where we explore the tectonic shifts we’ve all been seeing. What a list. Oh my gosh. I gotta tell you, I was just going back this morning and, and looking to see first of all the number, the sheer number is incredible. [00:00:36] Vince Menzione: But look at, look at all these top executives. These are, these are like market movers. The game changers. These are people that are doing more in our world, in our ecosystem than most others. And we are very fortunate to have the representation from these organizations. From these leaders in the room, and we try to curate an event that is more than a, a sales pitch. [00:01:00] Vince Menzione: We’re, in fact, we, we’re not a sales pitch. We’re all about, you know, helping you achieve more. And we try to frame that around operating principles. So, uh, a little bit of a roadmap lately. I mean, this started out like how did we get here in like, maybe five spots along the way. But, uh, for those of you who don’t know me and my background, and I’ve had an incredible career, I’ve been very blessed. [00:01:20] Vince Menzione: I did a startup that we grew from 6 million to 125 million. Went public on the Toronto Exchange. I’m still friends with the CEO, by the way. Helped, helped him grow and exit that company. Uh, I then followed one of the leaders there to go do a turnaround with Golden Gate Capital, and we took that and that’s where I built my first channel. [00:01:37] Vince Menzione: I went from doing enterprise sales as a direct seller, direct sales leader, VP to then going to building a channel. During nine 11, uh, this company was selling rugged notebook computers. Our biggest competitor was not a US company, and I spent a lot of time on Capitol Hill. I met with several congressmen and senators at a time when people did that, and they talked to each other. [00:01:58] Vince Menzione: And, uh, I built a channel. I got its a GSA schedule, and I understood. So I understood intuitively, even from that point in my career, how to move, how to shift from direct selling to building a channel, building a business around that. We became the growth engine of the company. One of my partners was one of the largest defense contractors, general Dynamics. [00:02:19] Vince Menzione: They had the big contract if you were selling to the US Army. And I knocked down the door basically and said, you got a partner with us. And that’s how we got the relationship established. And they wound up buying us for like 10 x what Golden Gate Capital had had spun us out for. And then Microsoft recruited me. [00:02:36] Vince Menzione: And for almost 10 years I was the GM of public sector partner strategy. And so I was, I was there and we’ll talk about Satya and other things, but I was there when we started the cloud. I was there when we pivoted the business from the old model and working with OEMs and trying to, to do things a different way to the cloud and co-selling and things like that. [00:02:56] Vince Menzione: And, uh, had a great experience. And then when I left I was like, oh, I’m just gonna go work for another big tech company. I started a podcast. I had a friend who said, you should do a podcast on partnering. You know a lot about this more than you probably think you do. And almost 10 years ago, I started a podcast in a spare bedroom. [00:03:13] Vince Menzione: And you know, it, it was, it built a following and there’s a lot of work, by the way, people, a lot of people do podcasts today. It was a lot of work for those of you. I congratulate anybody doing that. Uh, I went back inside for two years because I felt like I needed to go back into a big corporate environment. [00:03:29] Vince Menzione: And then I left during COVID and I learned a lot being at a big corporation about how hard it was to partner. Like it’s still hard. I don’t know how many people in the room feel this way. I know, I know the numbers are much better and Jay will talk through the numbers, but it’s not easy and a lot of organizations don’t understand it. [00:03:47] Vince Menzione: And that’s what we talk about here and we try to help people to achieve more and how to, how to get that mindset in the right place. But anyway, so. We started, we started doing the podcast after COVID, it took off. We did an event. Uh, there’s actually four of the five people that did partner. We called it Partner Mastermind. [00:04:06] Vince Menzione: We did an event about four years ago, uh, separately. And that led to Ultimate Partner. And it’s a long, the long history in the last four years of 10 events, like it’s been an incredible blast. And I want to thank each of you for being along this, this incredible ride with us as we continue to grow and expand. [00:04:24] Vince Menzione: We’ve been doubling every year for the last four years and um, I feel very blessed to be part of this. So I did wanna spend a minute with you on this. I don’t like the drain this slide, but I do wanna identify what I believe are seven operating principles of what makes successful partnering. And you know, you might say there’s eight, you might say there are other things I think about principles as opposed to tactics. [00:04:50] Vince Menzione: Tactics are transactional. They’re temporary and a point in time, and it’s how you respond and react to a situation. Principles are things you take with you, and that’s what we hope to do at Ultimate Partner. Take those things with you and then, then apply some of the things to the tactics that we need to have. [00:05:06] Vince Menzione: And so we talk about growth mindset. Uh, you know, depending on where you stand about Microsoft, these days, when this guy came in, stock was $36 a share. Okay. It’s in the four hundreds now. It was up to over 500 not long ago. He applied a different mindset. The first three things he did, Le got a copy of Carol Dweck’s book about mindset. [00:05:28] Vince Menzione: Growth mindset versus fixed mindset. Uh, he brought in Dr. Michael Vet, who’s a leading sports psychologist, like in, in the industry, who was the Seattle Seahawks sports psychologist. Mike’s been a podcast guest of mine. I’ve been to his studio. Um, and then he, we, he, he changed, he, he brought down, he took down the walls of the way Microsoft operated because leaders fought with each other. [00:05:51] Vince Menzione: They competed with each other for resources, for monetization, for everything. And he changed the mindset. Nobody’s a perfect CEO, but if I was to say to you who I think the best CEO of the last 10 years were, I’d give it to Saja Nadella, but it’s about mindset. It’s about changing or having the right mindset and applying that growth mindset to a successful partner. [00:06:12] Vince Menzione: Executive commitment, I talked about that. Other organizational will go nameless, but if you don’t, you can have the CEO down to the selling floor. Everyone needs to speak partnering, like in order to get it right in an organization. The whole company, the resources, the investments, the alignment, all has to align around partnering. [00:06:32] Vince Menzione: Executive commitment is incredible. Tony Saan took a small MSP to a half a billion dollar exit, took them to go, uh, Google Partner of the Year, seven straight years in a row. I think they’re eight this year. Uh, but Tony’s a good friend of mine. He is also been a guest on the podcast and, uh, somebody I’ve admired and worked with. [00:06:50] Vince Menzione: This is Dr. Michael Dravet. We talk about clarity, like once you get your mindset, once you get executive commitment, you then need to determine like how, what’s the vision? How do we drive success together? You need to turn, you need to know internally how to go do that. Then you lock arms with another organization and then you apply it to that partnership. [00:07:10] Vince Menzione: So that’s incredibly critical. Then, then you gotta do everything right? Like I always kid around about my days at Microsoft, we’d have these incredible meetings with leaders. They’d come meet with us at partner conference. I would literally go back to back for several days in the room. Slide deck after slide deck. [00:07:27] Vince Menzione: We’re high fiving at the end. [00:07:29] Vince Menzione: We’re gonna go do it [00:07:31] Vince Menzione: six months later. Crickets. Nothing happens, right? This happens a lot in partnering. Unfortunately, like we, we set up the right situation. We line everybody. We’re gonna go execute, we’re gonna drive results. You have to apply maniacal, focus, OKRs, everything to everything you do. [00:07:48] Vince Menzione: You need to apply. And by the way, you’re gonna hear from a lot of leaders here that do this type of work. So this is incredibly, uh, critical to success, brand and story. Like I wanna work with Microsoft. There’s gonna be probably 40 plus Microsoft leaders in the room, some of ’em sitting here and around the room. [00:08:06] Vince Menzione: How do you do that? Right? This is Ducks Raymond S. Good friend of mine at Point. I knew at point when they were just starting out. Scott Sackett is here. He’ll be up on stage. Uh, this man was expert on brand and story. Learn from people that are successful, how to be successful yourself, if you wanna be a top partner, if you wanna grow your business, whether you’re working with Microsoft, Google, Amazon, or any of the other partners in this room. [00:08:30] Vince Menzione: You need to be very clear about your brand, articulate it well, and drive a story against that. And that’s really super critical for success. And then once we do all those things, we start driving a flywheel of success. Aaron Feiger and some of the other people in the room, Reese Barry, are gonna be talking about how they do that. [00:08:47] Vince Menzione: They will help these organizations be successful. Pick putting that stake in the ground and driving it. And then what happens is after you drive this incredible success, what does my partner do? My tech giant, the company I’ve been working with, they go change everything. The market changes, the dynamics change. [00:09:05] Vince Menzione: This thing in November of 2022 called AI Happens, Chad, GBT hits the market. How do I respond and react to that? I need to be adaptable. I need to drive an AQ strategy on top of my EQ and iq, and we’ll talk more about that. So these are the operating principles, and we lay it out as a, as a diagram. And by the way, you see mutual trust. [00:09:26] Vince Menzione: Trust has to be in every room without trust, you have no partnerships, without trust, you have no business success. Like you can get buy in business, you can get buy in life, but trust is foundational. And I was very blessed to have that like grain ingrained in me as a young boy. Uh, so that’s our, that’s our operating principles. [00:09:48] Vince Menzione: Um, I’m working on a book right now. It’s almost done though. We’re, we’re talk, we’ll talk about that more, but that’s, that’ll be in the book. Um, and then we’ve been talking about tectonic shifts and I don’t know who said it first, Jay or, or me, but I know who you said it in the studio several years ago. [00:10:04] Vince Menzione: Jay’s been in our, our Boca studio many, many times. But we’ve been talking about tectonic shifts and Oh my gosh, right? So think about, I want everybody to think about this for a second. If you’ve been around tech for a while. We’ve gone through several, like these 10 year phases, the PC era, the cloud era, the well, the cloud. [00:10:23] Vince Menzione: We had client server, pc, client server, we had cloud, we had mobile, and now we hit ai. Those eras all took a period of time, right? They didn’t happen overnight. Like there was a trend like five, six years, seven years, maybe eight years, and then COVID happened, and I believe that COVID was the acceleration point because. [00:10:44] Vince Menzione: We were all forced to do things we didn’t do before. People went out and bought PCs that didn’t have them. Kids had to learn from home. Healthcare was administered tele telehealth, we didn’t do telehealth before. We had like 5% of the population to telehealth before that, uh, our work environment changed, right? [00:11:02] Vince Menzione: We were doing Zoom calls or teams calls back when I was at Microsoft Days, but the world started doing it. Our life started to change. That’s why being in the room places like this is so important. And so that really has accelerated everything. And this, you know, all these things have been accelerating over time and these are significant shifts. [00:11:22] Vince Menzione: We have the three leaders of the three marketplace organizations coming on stage here. Uh, the three hyperscalers, because marketplace went from, we were talking about it like, this is really cool. You need to go do it. A few years ago. So Microsoft lowering the rates on it, and then everything changed and then everybody started accelerating and it became the fungible token. [00:11:43] Vince Menzione: ’cause we used to, we used to partner, we used to take spreadsheets and put ’em up against each other and try to figure out deals and fax copies of deals that came in and say, we want credit for this one. And then Marketplace became a way to create a fun non fungible token. And really drive your success. [00:11:59] Vince Menzione: And so we have all the leaders that are running marketplaces in this room, by the way. So this is gonna be like the most incredible rich conversation. Co-selling. Co-selling is a, you know, a non-starter day. You have to co-sell it. People, we used to do vendor channel, which means I had somebody selling my stuff that’s not happening anymore. [00:12:19] Vince Menzione: And Jay, we’ll talk about the seven seats at the table. But this is all, these are all the things that have been changing. And of course, ai. I think that we are sitting here and I, I, I’ll share, and I’m stressing this, like this is, you need to be in this room because you’re gonna hear from leaders about what the next steps are. [00:12:35] Vince Menzione: ’cause I think we’re all paralyzed by AI and all the changes that are going on in our world and playbooks are no longer good because they’re outdated the week after they come out. So I need to, I need to follow this in real time. I think this is super important that you do, and it’s why we exist and it’s why this time is like no other. [00:12:53] Vince Menzione: I think, you know, we said maybe a generation, maybe it’s a lifetime in terms of the shifts that we’re seeing. So I, I kind of started here and I wanted to end here, uh, just because the light doesn’t go out. That’s what it’s all about. And this is it. This is it for me, right? This is my, my last run. I’m not gonna go work for a company after this. [00:13:16] Vince Menzione: I’m not gonna go into become a consultant. And I want this truly to be like special. And I want you to all feel like you’re part, you are part of it, and however much you wanna lean in and be part of it in the future, we want to grow this in the right way. I, I feel that we have an a unique opportunity. [00:13:34] Vince Menzione: Because we’re not a vendor, we’re not selling anything. I feel like we’re a platform. We’re that we’re that lighthouse and others can come in that are experts and I feel like more and more of ’em are showing up. And you know, the PDG guys did a great job today and others in the room and people that have been friends and supporting us for for years as on that sponsor slide. [00:13:56] Vince Menzione: And so we just want to continued this journey with each of you. Um, and so I want your feedback on what we’re doing. I want, I love your support. I love your passion. I love the fact that you’re still here in the room talking with, with or being here, listening to me today. Um, this is, that lighthouse is, you can see these pictures. [00:14:15] Vince Menzione: These are all family photos. Um, we go to that lighthouse, not because it’s a lighthouse, but uh, it happens to be like a landmark in our town. And, uh, it’s kind of cool. And actually the re Joe Namath has owns the restaurant across from the lighthouse, so we, we’ve got to see him a couple of times, which is kind of cool. [00:14:34] Vince Menzione: But I, I, I, I was posting this lighthouse when I started the podcast. And I was, yeah. ’cause that’s where I live and it’s my hometown. And I think about Dakota Rings and I think about other things. But, um, this is what matters. This is what matters is helping others. And we all are gonna need each other in this world because AI is gonna change our lives. [00:15:00] Vince Menzione: And dramatically it’s, I I think this is a once in a lifetime thing.

What can small language models teach us that the largest AI models cannot? Kelly and Julian are joined by Microsoft Cloud Advocate Gwyneth Peña-Sigüenza to explore why working with small language models (SLMs) may be one of the best ways to understand AI. Rather than relying on increasingly capable models that hide complexity, Gwyneth argues that constraints build stronger fundamentals. From prompt engineering and context management to deployment and security, SLMs force learners to think more carefully about how AI actually works. The conversation extends beyond AI models into learning itself. Gwyneth shares her self-taught journey from growing up on a remote farm in Ecuador with limited internet access to becoming a Microsoft Cloud Advocate and creator of the Learn to Cloud platform. Along the way, the group discusses productive struggle, mentorship, cloud engineering, Python, security, and what educators should prioritize as AI becomes part of every student's learning experience. The episode closes with a thoughtful discussion about AI dependency, judgment, and whether we would actually flip the switch and turn AI off if given the choice. Show Notes Wins of the Week Gwyneth celebrates the New York Knicks reaching the NBA Finals after more than 50 years. Julian shares that he has accepted a new role as a Fractional CTO. Kelly reflects on taking her first real vacation in over a year—and how stepping away from work sparked unexpected ideas. Small Language Models Why SLMs are valuable teaching tools Learning prompt engineering through constraints Running models locally on everyday hardware When local AI makes sense for classrooms Understanding tokens, context windows, and model limitations Why bigger models can sometimes hide important lessons Learning Through Constraints Learning to drive in an old manual pickup truck as a metaphor for learning AI fundamentals Why difficult learning experiences often create lasting understanding Building strong habits before relying on more capable tools Consistency versus constantly chasing the newest resource Self-Taught Learning Growing up without reliable internet in rural Ecuador Downloading YouTube playlists to learn programming offline Developing discipline through limited access The value of repetition and focused practice Why mentorship accelerates learning Python Journey Transitioning from cloud engineering to Python advocacy Learning Python beyond scripting Discovering what "Pythonic" really means Wrestling with list comprehensions and other advanced syntax Favorite learning resources: Fluent Python Effective Python Learn to Cloud Building an open-source cloud engineering curriculum Hands-on labs and automated verification AI-assisted assessment Supporting self-taught learners around the world Creating accessible technical education Cloud, AI, and Security Deploying AI applications to the cloud Containers, virtual machines, and serverless deployments Why operations and security deserve more classroom attention Introducing secure development practices early The importance of authentication, secrets management, and responsible deployment Teaching in the AI Era Helping students understand how AI works instead of simply using it Why productive struggle still matters The changing role of educators Balancing AI assistance with independent thinking Preparing students for a future where AI is always available Final Thoughts AI dependency versus capability Judgment as the skill that matters most Human connection in an AI-driven world Would we actually turn AI off?

Why Men Feel Lost (And How to Find Direction) Masculinity has become a moving target. One day you're told male strength is the problem, the next you're told you're failing unless you look like a superhero and never show emotion. We sit down with licensed marriage and family therapist Jacob Sedan and Deacon Anthony from St. Anthony the Great Antiochian Orthodox Church to clear the fog and name what healthy masculinity actually requires: responsibility, accountability, integrity, and a life rooted in Christ rather than image.We get concrete about what men miss when “I work and pay the bills” becomes the whole definition of fatherhood. We talk about the power of example, how hypocrisy teaches louder than lectures, and why emotions are not the enemy. From a clinical perspective, Jacob breaks down the cycle of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and what it looks like when men swing to extremes, either suppressing everything until it explodes or expressing everything in ways that make relationships feel unsafe.Then we go straight at the pain point for a lot of young men: dating. We unpack fear of rejection, the trap of wearing a persona, and why authenticity and consistency create real safety. We also share practical frameworks for men who did not have strong role models, including building an “internal board of advisors” from faithful men, saints, and mentors. We close with boundaries that protect marriage, including a hard truth many couples learn late: your spouse cannot be your therapist.If you want a Christ-centered roadmap for modern manhood, press play, share this with a friend who needs it, and subscribe and leave a review so more people can find the series.

190 Comfort Measures in the Hospital: What They Mean and How They Help Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, explains what "comfort measures" mean when offered during a hospital stay. Comfort measures begin when curative care stops and the focus shifts to relieving discomfort, pain, and distress for patients nearing end of life through appropriate medications and bedside care. She notes that comfort measures are not a full care program and lack the added support hospice can provide, but they are still valuable, especially when hospice is not offered or available due to insurance or location. Marie encourages families to participate at the bedside, report symptoms such as anxiety or shortness of breath, and expect fewer disruptions, limited transports and procedures, and a calmer environment. She also mentions hospice or palliative care as options depending on eligibility and time. 00:00 Welcome and Disclaimer 00:29 Meet Your Host 00:42 What Comfort Measures Mean 01:12 Comfort Measures vs Hospice 01:51 How Families Can Help 02:20 Creating a Calm Hospital Room 03:01 When to Choose Hospice 03:43 Palliative Care Option 04:15 Closing and Subscribe If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Sheri shares that her mother recently got an infection after surgery, and a nurse recognized her and shared that she had been listening to New Life for 30 years! It was an answer to prayer for God to send someone to take care of her mom. Should I give my friend more time to reconcile with her daughter? She set boundaries in their relationship because she felt their conversations always centered on her daughter’s views about her father or God. I've had a neighbor harassing me for 17 years. I moved away and now rent out the property, but the harassment continues. How do I handle ongoing conflict and protect my peace? I've struggled with pornography addiction since I was a teenager, and I’m tired of hurting my wife the last 17 years. What are the next steps?

The conversation around artificial intelligence often creates the impression that software development has already been transformed beyond recognition. Social media feeds are filled with stories about AI agents replacing teams, generating applications automatically, and eliminating the need for traditional development processes. The Enterprise AI Reality is much more nuanced. While AI has become a valuable tool inside software organizations, large enterprises are approaching adoption far differently than many public conversations suggest. The gap between experimentation and production remains significant, especially when millions of dollars, regulatory requirements, and customer trust are involved. About Samuel Otero Samuel Otero is a Software Solutions Specialist with Deloitte US and a technology consultant with nearly 14 years of experience spanning enterprise software development, government projects, commercial consulting, and large-scale digital transformation initiatives. His career began with an early Microsoft internship that shaped his approach to continuous learning and technical humility. Since then, he has worked across media, public-sector, and enterprise environments, helping organizations deliver complex software solutions while mentoring the next generation of developers. Based in Puerto Rico, Samuel is also an advocate for developer growth, career development, and practical AI adoption in modern software engineering. Links LinkedIn Enterprise AI Reality Is Different from Social Media One of the strongest observations Samuel shared was the contrast between what people see online and what happens inside large organizations. Social media often highlights extreme success stories. Teams appear to build entire products using AI agents. Individual developers showcase impressive workflows that dramatically accelerate delivery. Those examples are real. However, enterprise software operates under different constraints. Systems support financial transactions, critical business processes, compliance requirements, and large customer bases. Mistakes carry significant consequences. As a result, organizations are adopting AI incrementally rather than replacing existing development practices overnight. Enterprise AI Reality Requires Trust Before Automation Every technology faces a trust curve. Before organizations automate critical workflows, they need evidence that systems perform reliably under real-world conditions. Samuel described how enterprises often use AI first in lower-risk scenarios before allowing it to influence more critical components of a platform. Features with limited business risk become testing grounds for new approaches. This pattern mirrors previous technological shifts. Cloud adoption happened gradually. DevOps adoption happened gradually. AI adoption is following a similar trajectory. The technology may be powerful, but trust must be earned through consistent results. Enterprises don't adopt technology because it's impressive. They adopt it because it's reliable. Enterprise AI Reality Still Depends on Human Expertise One misconception surrounding AI is that generated code eliminates the need for technical understanding. In practice, the opposite may be true. The more organizations rely on AI-generated outputs, the more important validation becomes. Developers must understand architecture, business requirements, security concerns, and implementation details well enough to verify what AI produces. Samuel emphasized a simple but powerful habit: asking AI to explain exactly what it did and why it made certain decisions.   That approach transforms AI from an answer machine into a learning tool. Developers who understand generated solutions become more effective. Developers who blindly accept generated solutions create risk. Never merge AI-generated code until you can explain its behavior to another developer. Enterprise AI Reality Is Creating New Skill Gaps The rise of AI is changing how developers gain experience. Historically, growth came from solving difficult problems manually. Developers researched documentation, struggled through debugging sessions, and built mental models through repetition. AI reduces much of that friction. While this increases productivity, it also creates new challenges. Developers may complete tasks successfully without fully understanding how those tasks were accomplished. Over time, this can create a dangerous gap between perceived capability and actual expertise. Organizations must address this by emphasizing understanding rather than output alone. The future belongs to developers who combine AI acceleration with deep technical comprehension. Enterprise AI Reality May Increase Software Complexity An interesting prediction from the discussion involved software quality. As AI accelerates development, more software will be produced. More features will be released. More experiments will reach production environments. That acceleration creates opportunity. It also creates risk. Samuel suggested that many organizations are still learning where AI performs exceptionally well and where it struggles under enterprise-scale conditions. During that learning period, users may experience more bugs, patches, and corrective updates as teams discover limitations. This isn't evidence that AI has failed. It's evidence that every transformative technology goes through a maturation phase before reaching stability. Faster development cycles can produce bugs faster if organizations don't maintain engineering discipline. Enterprise AI Reality Still Comes Back to Problem Solving Perhaps the most important lesson from the entire conversation is that technology itself is rarely the source of professional value. Languages change. Frameworks change. Platforms change. AI models will change. The underlying business need remains consistent: solving problems. Samuel's closing advice focused on developing problem-solving skills rather than attaching identity to a specific technology stack. That mindset provides resilience regardless of how quickly tools evolve. Developers who can understand problems, communicate solutions, and create business value will remain relevant long after today's AI tools are replaced by tomorrow's innovations. The most durable technical skill isn't coding. It's problem-solving. Conclusion The Enterprise AI Reality is neither the dystopian future predicted by skeptics nor the fully automated paradise promised by enthusiasts. Instead, it's a period of careful experimentation, measured adoption, and ongoing learning. Organizations are discovering where AI delivers value, where human expertise remains essential, and how both can work together to build better software. The developers who succeed during this transition won't be the ones who resist AI or blindly trust it. They'll be the ones who learn how to use it responsibly while continuing to strengthen the problem-solving skills that define great engineers. Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community

Cloud-first AI sounds great until you remember what a factory actually is: proprietary recipes, fragile uptime, legacy controls that still run fine, and a small team expected to keep everything profitable. We sit down with Brian Thykin, Head of Revenue at Sorba AI, to talk about what industrial AI and machine learning should look like when it's built for OT instead of for slide decks. The through-line is simple: the people closest to the process should be the ones shaping the models, and the tech should meet them where they work. We break down Sorba's end-to-end on-prem AI ML platform, from industrial data connectors and unified data access to no-code AutoML that can produce anomaly detection, forecasting, advanced process control, and digital twin models. Brian explains why “AI needs the cloud” is often the wrong assumption for manufacturing, how closed-loop control can drive more consistent yield than reactive PID hunting, and why the best results come from rapid iteration that proves value in minutes rather than burning months on a traditional data science cycle. Then we zoom out to careers and credibility. Brian shares his hot takes on what skills survive automation, why fundamentals and hands-on troubleshooting still matter, and why “one size fits all” pre-trained models rarely match how your specific plant behaves. We also call out the difference between a real digital twin that enables what-if optimization using time-series data and the kind that looks nice but doesn't move KPIs. If you care about industrial AI, OT security, predictive maintenance, digital twins, and the future of controls engineering, this conversation will sharpen your filter for hype and help you spot practical wins.

Marc Berte is the Co-founder and CEO of Overview Energy, a startup developing space-based solar power systems designed to turn existing solar farms into around-the-clock power generators. By placing satellites in geosynchronous orbit, collecting near-continuous sunlight, and beaming energy back to Earth as safe near-infrared light, Overview aims to dramatically increase the utilization of solar infrastructure already deployed around the world.  In this episode of Inevitable, Marc explains how space solar works and how Overview's approach differs from decades of prior space solar concepts. He talks about the economics of “photon fuel,” the company's gigawatt-scale agreement with Meta, and the concept of “supply response”—delivering power exactly where and when grids need it most.  The conversation explores the manufacturing challenges of deploying thousands of satellites, the role of defense and energy security applications, and why the long-term value of solar assets could change dramatically if space-based power delivery becomes commercially viable.  Finally, he shares one of the more unconventional engineering stories you'll hear this year: how 75 pounds of Otter Pops helped cool Overview's airborne power-beaming demonstration system.
