1792 m. iki kraštų laivus prigrūdęs teleskopais, (naudotais) laikrodžiais ir Neapolio priemiestyje užverbuotais kinų kalbos vertėjais Lordas Macartney išsiruošė diplomatinei kelionei, kurios metu siekė pralaužti prekybinių santykių ledus su Kinijos imperija. Deja, Qing dinastijos imperatoriaus Qianlong nesužavėjo britų nenoras keliaklupsčiauti, o ir vakarietiško pasaulio išradimai jam tebuvo menkaverčiai niekučiai – Kinija apsčiai visko turėjo. Tačiau Britų imperija net neplanavo taip lengvai pasiduoti, juk porcelianiniai arbatos servizai buvo įgyti ne tam, kad stovėtų tušti. O užpildyti juos tikrai buvo kuo. Po daugiau nei 70 epizodų grįžtame į enteogenų sodus ir gilinamės į dvi XVIII-XIX a. įtakingiausias substancijas – arbatą ir opijų. Nuo svaigios neramių sielų paguodos iki stipriausio didžiausių to metų imperijų nuodo – visą šį virsmą seksite kartu su Čefyro katinu, kapitonu Flintu ir naujausiu Aivaro veikėju.   Iliustracija: @tinymischiefs Muzika: QubeSounds, Pumpupthemind, SergeQuadrado, Sonican, Humanoide_Media, Pixabay, kazoom, Nion_Official, Land_Of_Books   PAGRINDINIAI EPIZODO ŠALTINIAI: ✳ Stephen R.

In the 14th episode of Season 8 of the Meet the Mancunian Podcast, host Deepa Thomas-Sutcliffe interviews Hemant Patel, CEO of Anumana. They discuss Hemant's passion for community support, inspired by his mother and Indian cultural values, and his initiative, the Code Academy. Patel highlights the academy's mission to address challenges in the tech sector, such as lack of diversity, skills gap, and social mobility barriers. The academy offers a free 16-week Python programming course to Manchester schools delivered by University students, targeting students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Hemant also shares the struggles and successes of establishing this program simultaneously with his business, Anumana, and emphasises the importance of relatable role models in inspiring young talent. The episode concludes with insights into the program's impact and Hemant's advice for creating similar initiatives. In Hemant's own words: “I think the biggest common myth is that you have to have a specific skill set and I guess the biggest common myth is that you have to come from a computer science background to be able to program, or you have had to have previous program experience to program. I think certainly there are a lot of programs out there where people are retraining from completely different vocations into programming.” #Youth #Coding #students #community #Manchester #GM #SocialImpact #NonProfit #Podcast Did you know:  ·     In 2024, the House of Commons Library reported that 18% of UK adults lack the digital skills needed for the workplace.  ·     The Government's 2022 Digital Strategy states that over 80% of UK job advertisements require digital skills, and the skills gap could cost the economy up to £120 billion a year by 2035. ·     Young people face several barriers to entering digital training and careers, including a lack of encouragement, limited awareness of options, and low teaching quality. Many also hold negative perceptions of the tech sector, seeing it as difficult, with long hours and high discrimination. Additionally, retraining is hindered by financial costs and a lack of junior-level roles   Key resource: Anumana Code Academy   Time stamps of key moments in the podcast episode & transcript: (00:55) Introduction to Hemant Patel and Anumana (01:42) Finding Passion for Community Support (02:46) The Birth of Code Academy (06:33) Challenges in Building Code Academy (07:50) Scaling and Sustainability of Code Academy (09:20) Impact and Success Stories (12:31) Debunking Myths in Coding and IT (13:36) Advice for Starting Similar Movements (18:25) Personal Reflections and Life Lessons (19:49) Signature Questions and Closing Remarks Listen to the episode and read the transcript on www.meetthemancunian.co.uk

In this episode, we have a Boundaryless Conversation with John Robb, the owner and principal analyst for the monthly Global Guerrillas Report, that covers the intersection of War, Politics, and Technology.  Its goal is to provide people with the frameworks needed to make sense of our relentlessly chaotic world. In other words, John helps people think clearly at a time when that kind of help is in short supply.   In our conversation with John, we explore how the rapid power shifts we're witnessing towards open source, and self-organizing networks are going to change the way we organize society and the economy. We touched upon the fact that the emergent future of organizing may not disrupt or obsolete the existing markets, but rather coexist, and that there's no way we can get away with ignoring the question concerning technology as society literally "becomes a technological artefact" as John said.

In this episode I'm joined by Ben Nelson, co-founder of Lambda School, an increasingly popular coding bootcamp with a slightly different structure and monetization strategy than the others. Computer Science programs at a university are known to be tough, painful, and exhausting. This is because of the nature of the material, duration of the program, and the fact that you're probably going to be challenged with difficult classes outside the direct scope of software development. This is where coding schools such as Lambda School come into play because these are programs that are designed to teach you relevant workforce skills in short amounts of time. Ben Nelson experienced a traditional university, switched to a popular coding bootcamp, and then started his own coding bootcamp because of the experience it was giving students. I personally only ever completed a Computer Science program at a university, so this episode shares perspectives and information from both points of view.

To become a leader, first get ready to do the grunt work Shay Howe is a man of many talents and has helped build some of the best-known tech companies in the Midwest, including Groupon, Belly and Codecademy. But before he became a leader in the field, he was a kid just out of college, living in Chicago, unsure of how to build his career. But, as a group of like-minded developers started to organize a Refresh Chicago meetup, Shay volunteered to not only take part, but do the little things that organizers didn't have time for. This meant showing up and being reliable while doing things like setting out the chairs for the audience, and ordering way too much pizza. And, as you'll hear in this story, that dedication to the little things is what changed his entire career. Midwestern values lead to prizing the ability to lead honestly and with integrity Shay grew up in Ohio (no offense, Michiganders), the son of two educators who never quite took to education himself. He tells the story of how when he struggled with spelling, his mother would spray shaving cream on the kitchen table, and have him carve out the letters in the foam, to make learning fun for him. His father taught and worked a side business as an athletic trainer, which showed him how to work hard and pursue what you love. Shay credits his dad's work ethic, and his mother's creative teaching style that put student first, with his approach to his own career in development. Sometimes you don't need business school, you just need to play in a band In high school, Shay played in a band and quickly learned that if you don't look out for the business side of music, people will try to pay you in free drinks and snacks. He took over the management of the band, booking shows and ensuring they got paid, unwittingly providing himself his first lessons in business. But when he tweaked the design of the band's MySpace page, and other bands noticed, his two loves merged: He was doing front-end development, and he was getting paid to do it. But it was another lesson he learned from his days in the band, that would go on to accelerate his career. Doing the grunt work led to his first big opportunity and a major critical shift It turned out, moving the chairs around and ordering the pizzas got Shay noticed, and he was asked to give a talk at Refresh Chicago. He prepared for at least 40 hours for that 15-minute talk, and the work paid off, getting him invited to speak at another conference, which eventually led to his first big job. Shay credits the time he invested into that talk with helping get his career on the right trajectory, but it also triggered something else in him: a desire to follow in his parents' footsteps and teach. As he says in the interview, “So many people opened doors for me, of course I was going to open doors for a few others.” From Codecademy to Lead Honestly, a career spent helping others When Shay worked at Groupon, the coding boot camp Codecademy opened in their office space. Shay began spending hours there, volunteering to teach students and eventually put out a free resource for learning how to code (which was eventually turned into a book). After his time at Belly, he started the company Lead Honestly, which takes his years of experience building relationships and partners with organizations to help them connect better with their employees. The company sends five questions out to managers every week that will help them better understand and engage with their staff. This is a fascinating interview with a self-starter, a leader, and a dyed-in-the-wool educator.

In this episode, I talk to my first in-person coding instructor and good mentor friend, George Mandis of Snaptortoise Development. George is a Portland, Oregon-based freelance web developer, who taught the first classroom-based web development bootcamp I attended when first learning to code, Code Academy at Mount Hood Community College. It turned out, I was already pretty advanced for the class, and he ended up being a great mentor to me!

In a world of screens, parents face some tough questions: To limit or not to limit? By how much and when? How different is Candy Crush from Codeacademy? And what is all the new tech doing to our children? In this episode, we dive into the conundrum with the techies themselves -- the parents who code the apps and create the devices on your desk or in your pocket. We want to find out if they know something the rest of us civilians don't. We'll hear from Sameer Ajmani, a Google software engineer, who deployed some evidence-based parenting and experimented with screen time extremes for his seven year-old. It didn't go so well as you might imagine, but the lessons were probably worth it. “The reality is that [tech execs] actually have a better understanding of where tech can go wrong than most non-tech parents do,” Nick Bilton. Nick Bilton, tech columnist for the The New York Times, joins Manoush to swap stories after informally surveying tech execs in Silicon Valley about their family rules. It seems the parents most entrenched in the tech world are the ones most weary of what they've created.  This episode will leave you thinking about your own house rules, whether or not you have kids. If you've figured it out, even just a little bit, we'd love to hear from you in the comment section below.

Here are those rules Manoush mentions from the American Academy of Pediatrics about screen time for kids. Heard in this episode:  “Anything that you do in excess is probably not good for you,” Nick Bilton. “No parents in history have ever had to cope with the unprecedented convergence of a ubiquitous sophisticated alluring habit-forming screen technology and unfettered unregulated advertising," Susan Linn, founder of The Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. “Addiction in the 60s was about sex, drugs, and rock n' roll. The response in the 80s was safe sex education, say no to drugs, and the commoditization of popular music. This generation, the addictions are games, social media, and upbuzzclickbaitworthy articles.  What's the response?” Sameer Ajmani, parent and programmer.
