Podcasts about Compression

We weren't intending to have so many controversial stories this week, but here we are with some spicy topics on our hands. The main discussion was new research on Ethiopian athlete training, described as an “AI-assisted” study. The findings are cool, and we discuss those training points. But looking at the bigger picture, we have major fears about the use of AI writing across exercise physiology literature. The future is going to be weird and sloppy.We also talked about the $500 Adidas trail shoe. David thinks it's a big “screw you” to trail runners. Megan is also concerned, but thinks he needs to chill. You know, the usual. And there were tons of topics with varying levels of spice! Other topics: UTMB scores, Megan's popsicle form, Edmonton Marathon's mis-measurement, Kilian and Jim out of UTMB, age group doping, the blueberry recall, our problems with hog watch, Mike Macdonald's coaching prowess through vulnerability, the Lost Soul Ultra, emails from PED companies, zone compression for speed-oriented athletes, and lots more!As always, remember that many of the points we make are wrong, and if so, it was a joke. But if you agree with it, we were serious.We love you all!

Forget everything you've been told about resting and icing your injuries. True recovery isn't a passive waiting game or a one-size-fits-all formula, it is an active, dynamic process rooted in intuition, genetics, and smart, whole-body strategy. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon sits down with Dr. Victoria Maizes, an internationally recognized leader in integrative medicine, founding executive director of the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine, professor, and host of the Body of Wonder podcast. Together, they dive into Dr. Maizes' groundbreaking book, “Heal Faster: Unlock Your Body's Rapid Recovery Reflex”, to dismantle long-held recovery myths like R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) and reveal why traditional treatments like ice and NSAIDs might actually be delaying your healing. Tune in to discover evidence-based, integrative strategies across nutrition, mindset, and nervous system regulation designed to activate your body's innate healing power, break the cycle of chronic pain, and maintain peak physical vitality.   For more information about “Heal Faster: Unlock Your Body's Rapid Recovery Reflex” by Victoria Maizes, MD, please visit: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Heal-Faster/Victoria-Maizes/9781668046029 Audio versions of this book can be purchased at: https://www.amazon.com/Heal-Faster-Unlock-Recovery-Reflex/dp/B0FCYWS38C For more information about Dr. Victoria Maizes, please visit: https://www.drvictoriamaizes.com Connect with Dr. Maizes on Linkedin at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoria-maizes-b75a595/ Connect with Dr. Maizes on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/victoriamaizesmd/

We brought some big foot energy to this great episode! The main training topic was a discussion of “zone compression,” where harder efforts get sustainable for longer durations in weird and wild ways. Our theory: zone compression techniques are driving lots of training theory. We break it all down!Before that, the episode starts with David's news that he's going to get surgery on his foot. We discuss the process to get here and what comes next. Answer: jokes come next. Life!And this one had so many fun topics! Other topics: creatine update, a study on stretching and blood pressure, why the Tour de France Femmes absolutely ruled, a strange study on blueberries and performance, a paper on negative social ties, the Sierre Zinal mascot, a hamster that is taking over Strava, side short pees, a question on PEDs, what to wear in the home sauna, regrets, and so much more.So much love for you all!

AI agents can write code for hours, but ask them to do real work in the real economy, and they break. Mitch Troyanovsky is co-founder of Basis, a unicorn AI company whose agents run autonomously for hours — sometimes days — completing complex tax returns end to end. His answer to the reliability problem: stop grading outcomes, and start supervising the process.This is a definitive, reference-style conversation on building long-horizon AI agents. Mitch walks through the full history — from ReAct and the AutoGPT crash to reasoning models and RLVR — and explains why the industry abandoned process supervision in 2023, and why it's now coming back at a completely different scale. We go deep on behavior specs, the open standard Basis just released with Braintrust for defining and evaluating how agents behave across entire trajectories, with no ground truth required.Along the way: why context is really runtime training data, why your documentation must be treated like a codebase, ontologies as "worlds for agents to live in," the judge-as-agent architecture, why Basis hires philosophy majors as Language Architects, deploying agents as "onboarding 300 brilliant alien employees," and Mitch's prediction for when the bitter lesson swallows the harness.(01:09) Why Basis Engineers Whisper to Their Agents(04:12) Accounting as Compression: an Intelligence Layer Over the Economy(06:11) Defining Long-Horizon: When You Exceed the Context Window(08:24) Anatomy of a Multi-Day Autonomous Trajectory(10:19) Handoff Design: Optimizing Output for the Reviewer(11:17) ReAct and Why Reasoning Must Regulate Its Own State(12:33) Large Working Memory, No Long-Term Memory(14:13) Compounding Errors: Why AutoGPT and BabyAGI Broke(15:51) Opus 3, o1, o3: the Three Real Paradigm Shifts(17:07) Titrating Inference Compute Across Easy and Hard Steps(18:23) Process Reward vs. Outcome Reward: "Let's Verify Step by Step"(20:32) RLVR and Why the METR Curve Overstates Reliability(22:09) Verifiable at Runtime: the Real Reason Coding Won(25:14) No Ground Truth, No Cheap Verification, No Data(26:55) Encoding Deterministic Checks From Human Review Process(29:18) Synthetic Data Limits: Generating Artifacts, Not Text(33:16) 100 Evals Pass — Does It Generalize to Production?(35:53) Primary Sources vs. Pre-Training Knowledge(36:37) Behavior Specs: Markdown, Judges, and True/False/N.A.(39:58) Specificity vs. Brittleness in Spec Authoring(42:18) Context as Runtime Training Data(44:21) Judge-as-Agent: Trajectory Maps and Sub-Agent Attribution(46:45) The Move 37 Objection: Reliability Over Optimality(50:02) The Magic Box Model: Building Without Weights Access(52:41) "Nothing Paradigm-Shifting Has Changed Since o3"(54:56) Open-Sourcing the Behavior Spec Standard With Braintrust(01:02:54) Ontology Design: Virtual Filesystems, Graphs, Embeddings(01:04:20) Canonical vs. Non-Canonical: Docs as Codebase(01:06:33) Language Architects and Writing for Runtime Interpretation(01:09:05) Deployed Intelligence: 300 Alien Employees With No Context(01:11:10) Closing the Loop: Signal → Context, Tools, Harness(01:12:50) Context Slop: the Mistake Most Agent Builders Make(01:14:29) Reward Function Design and Credit Assignment Over Trajectories(01:17:01) Will the Bitter Lesson Swallow the Harness?(01:18:46) Business Moats vs. Technical Moats(01:21:03) Paradigm Thinking Over Timeline ADHD

In this episode of Beyond Reality, TV producer  Hayley Ferguson catches up with Olympic legend and Australian Survivor winner Shane Gould following her brutal first banishment from The Traitors Australia.Shane breaks down the jarring psychological contrast between surviving the elements in Fiji and navigating the high-pressure social compression inside the Traitors mansion. From being tagged an instant "tall poppy" threat to her unexpected bond with younger stars from Aussie Shore and Made in Bondi, Shane delivers an unfiltered look at player perception, gameplay blind spots, and why this episode marks her official "reality TV retirement."  In this episode, we discuss:The Compression of The Traitors: Why the lack of physical distance in the mansion makes reading social dynamics drastically harder than Survivor.   The Day One Target: How her status as a Survivor winner made her an immediate threat to the rest of the cast.   The Cam Decision: The ripple effect of being forced to eliminate a player instantly on day one.   The Round Table Strategy: What it felt like watching the room pivot against her and Dicko's role in driving the vote.  Unlikely Alliances: The dynamic with Monarchy and Lawson standing up for her at the round table.   Reality TV vs. Life Transitions: Shane's candid "grandmotherly" conversations with younger reality castmates about career sustainability beyond the screen.  Plus the Quick-Fire Round: Hard truths on whether Fiji elements or reality stars are harder to survive, her top murder target if she were a Traitor, and whether she'll ever grace reality TV again.   Support the show

I texted Don about a side gig: €5,000 for every 1% you shave off a zip file. It's a real contest. For 20 years, Marcus Hutter has offered €500,000 to anyone who can losslessly compress a gigabyte of Wikipedia below 110 megabytes. Gzip gets you to 322. After that you're on your own. So we tried. Run-length encoding. Pointing back instead of repeating yourself. Huffman coding worked out by hand. Arithmetic coding, which spends less than one bit per character. Then Claude Shannon's 1951 guessing game, and a paper where an LLM beats every record and still wins nothing, because the model counts against you. Don wanted the euros. I had other reasons for bringing him over. Episode Page Support The Show Subscribe To The Podcast Join The Newsletter  

What happens when the role that made you successful becomes too small for the person you've become? In this episode of Your Passion, Purpose and Personal Brand, Lisa McGuire introduces Identity Compression: the gradual process of becoming so identified with one successful role, title, or contribution that the rest of who you are has less room to breathe. It tends to show up as a byproduct of succeeding, not failing. The more dependable, capable, and respected you become, the more the world organizes itself around that version of you, until you're maintaining an identity that still works even though it no longer tells the whole truth. Lisa shares the deeply personal story of leaving an independent school community she helped build and served for eighteen years. What first appeared to be the loss of a career became something far more revealing: the loss of the role that had been reflecting her identity back to her. This conversation explores the difference between who you are and the roles through which you've expressed yourself, and why accomplished leaders, founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals can feel disconnected even when everything looks successful from the outside. You'll come away understanding how to recognize the signs of Identity Compression, why strategy alone can't solve a problem rooted in identity, and how reconnecting with the deeper pattern of your contribution can open the door to a more aligned next chapter. The truth is simpler than it feels. Somewhere in all that success, you lost access to parts of yourself that have been waiting for room to breathe again. In This Episode, You'll Discover * What Identity Compression is, and how it quietly develops over years of success * The expectation, obligation, and disconnection that success can create * Where your identity ends, and the roles you perform begin * How a reputation gradually turns into an obligation * Why career transitions so often trigger a genuine identity crisis * Signs that a once-successful role no longer fits who you've become * Relief tends to arrive before clarity does * The way strategy can quietly reinforce misalignment when identity gets ignored * Why identity has to come before positioning, branding, or business strategy * What your Category of ONLY™ reveals about the contribution that's always been yours CONNECT WITH LISA LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-mcguire/ Website: https://lisamcguire.com/ Successfully Stuck: The First Truth Kit: https://go.lisamcguire.com/first-truth-kit  ArchitectHer Website: https://architecther.org  Bonus: Mention that you heard about ArchitectHer on this podcast and receive a complimentary one-hour Identity Integration Session with Lisa upon enrollment in the ArchitectHer experience.

⭐️ #325 - Cet épisode est rendu possible grâce au soutien de Compressport. ⭐️On parle souvent du matériel de trail comme d'une histoire de feeling ou de marketing. Mais derrière une ceinture, un manchon de compression ou un sac, il y a parfois une vraie démarche scientifique. Dans cet épisode enregistré au sein du laboratoire de Compressport à Besançon, je suis allé comprendre comment on passe d'un besoin identifié chez un athlète à un produit fini, testé et validé.Avec Arnaud Ménétrier, directeur scientifique et docteur en sciences du sport, et Maxence Ramage, en charge des tests laboratoire et terrain, on décortique la R&D du matériel de trail, de triathlon et de running. On aborde la mesure du coût énergétique, l'aérodynamisme en soufflerie, la thermorégulation, la réduction des vibrations musculaires et les effets de la compression à l'effort comme en récupération.Trois protocoles sont mis en application en direct pour évaluer le maintien de la nouvelle Free Belt Pro 2.0 par accéléromètre, mesurer les vibrations musculaires des manchons de compression et observer l'effet de la compression sur la saturation en oxygène musculaire avec un capteur SmO2. On déconstruit quelques idées reçues et on te donne des conseils concrets, comme la meilleure façon d'organiser ton portage en ultra trail.

You leave a leadership team meeting where everyone got their assignments and everyone nodded — and you still can't shake the sense that the real problem never got said out loud. That feeling isn't paranoia, and it isn't a sign your team is conflict-averse. In this episode, Brooke Richie-Babbage names a pattern she sees constantly in growing nonprofits: capable, mission-driven rooms shrinking a genuinely hard problem down to something manageable, because there's nowhere organizational to put the hard version. Brooke reframes complexity avoidance as a design failure rather than a people failure, walks through the three moves a room makes when it does this — the Compression, the Peripheral Solve, and the Collective Agreement — and shows why the problem you don't name in the fall becomes the more expensive crisis you're managing by winter. Listeners will leave able to spot the pattern in their own meetings, and with one specific question that interrupts it.What You'll LearnThe three moves a leadership room makes to avoid complexity — and the specific "tell" that gives each one away, starting with the word "just."Why naming a hard problem feels like volunteering to own it in an under-resourced organization — and why that makes shrinking it a rational response rather than a personal failing.The one question to bring into your next leadership meeting that forces a concrete answer the room usually already has.Key TakeawaysA busy meeting and a real meeting can look identical from the outside. Engagement, action items, and relief in the room are not proof that the actual problem got addressed — they're often the evidence that it didn't.This happens because complexity only stays manageable when there's a container for it: shared frameworks for naming hard things, and clear decision rights that say whose job it is to hold a problem. When that architecture is missing, complexity becomes personal — and the self-protective move is to make it smaller.Avoided complexity doesn't disappear; it compounds. What a room declines to name in September becomes the February crisis, and the February version costs more in money, time, and staff morale than the version that was on the table months earlier.Want to work together?

For decades, RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation) was the standard advice for treating acute injuries. In this episode, we explore the history of RICE, why sports medicine is rethinking the role of ice, and what current research says about inflammation, healing, and recovery. We discuss the origins of RICE with Dr. Gabe Mirkin, the arguments presented in Gary Reinl's ICED!, the influential PEACE & LOVE framework, and the latest evidence from randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews examining cryotherapy and injury management. Whether you're a runner, coach, or simply interested in evidence-based recovery, this episode breaks down the science behind one of the most common injury treatments in sports medicine.Research discussed: Bleakley et al.

This solo episode explores the implications of a recent paper by Dr Lauren Pringel investigating whether it is better to minimize compressive loading on a tendon versus choosing movements and exercises which have high tendon compressive loading. But the secondary aim of the podcast is to explore other ways that we can explain the findings.  We want to look at other implications for the results to improve our critical thinking skills.   The paper is here

Here's something nobody tells you about a cancer diagnosis: it might be the most clarifying moment of your entire life. Studies show that up to 70% of cancer survivors report what psychologists call post-traumatic growth — not just surviving, but becoming. Today we're going somewhere most podcasts are too afraid to go. We're asking whether a terminal diagnosis could actually be a spiritual breakthrough — a forced consciousness shift that delivers the radical authenticity and flow state you've spent your whole life chasing.

Send us Fan MailWhat if chronic disease isn't just about hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, or aging, but about communication?In this fascinating conversation, Cody sits down with peripheral nerve surgeon and regenerative medicine pioneer Dr. Richard Jacoby to explore a provocative perspective on health: that many chronic conditions may begin with disrupted communication throughout the nervous system.Dr. Jacoby shares the principles behind his Global Compression Theory, explaining how nerve compression may interfere with blood flow, oxygen delivery, nutrient transport, and the body's ability to repair itself. Together, they discuss why symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, chronic pain, hormone imbalances, neuropathy, and metabolic dysfunction may all be connected in ways conventional medicine often overlooks.The conversation also dives into blood sugar, insulin resistance, regenerative medicine, stem cells, exosomes, and the future of healing, while thoughtfully exploring why innovative ideas often take decades to become mainstream.Whether you're navigating perimenopause, menopause, chronic inflammation, unexplained symptoms, or simply want a deeper understanding of how the body heals, this episode offers a fresh perspective on what it means to restore health from the inside out.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why Dr. Jacoby believes the nervous system is the body's communication network• What the Global Compression Theory is—and how it may relate to chronic disease• How nerve compression can affect circulation, cellular function, and healing• The connection between metabolism, glucose, insulin, and nerve health• Why neuropathy is about much more than numb feet• Early warning signs that communication within the body may be breaking down• How regenerative medicine, stem cells, and exosomes could transform healthcare• Why medicine is often slow to embrace new ideas• Practical ways to support your nervous system and overall healthIf this conversation gave you a new perspective on healing, share it with a friend or family member who has been searching for answers.Don't forget to subscribe to It's Hertime so you never miss an episode designed to help you understand your body and feel your best.Connect with Dr. Richard Jacoby:Website:  https://qstemcells.comInstagram: @dr.richardjacobySpecial Giveaway:  https://rickjacoby.coBooks: Sugar Crush, Unglued Upcoming Book: The Terminal ZoneDid you learn something new today?

Send us Fan MailDr. Eric Westman sits down with Leslyn Keith, occupational therapist and lymphatic specialist, to discuss lipedema, lymphedema, painful fat, swollen legs, and why these conditions are so often misunderstood in mainstream medicine.Leslyn explains how lipedema is different from normal obesity, why painful fat and disproportionate swelling should not be ignored, and how the lymphatic system plays a major role in fluid balance, inflammation, immune function, and fat metabolism. They also discuss why many patients are told to simply “eat less and move more,” even when that advice fails to address the underlying problem.This conversation explores how ketogenic and low-carb diets may help improve lymphatic health, reduce inflammation, lower pain, and support people living with lipedema or lymphedema. Leslyn also shares the research behind ketogenic nutrition for lymphatic disorders, why compression therapy is often used, and why diet may deserve a much bigger role in treatment.If you have painful fat, swollen legs, unexplained lower-body weight gain, lymphedema after cancer treatment, or lipedema that has been dismissed as simple obesity, this episode may help you understand what is really going on.00:28 Meet Leslyn Keith01:17 How Leslyn entered lymphatic care02:34 Discovering ketogenic nutrition03:23 Keto's impact on lymphedema patients05:16 Why healthcare gets so little nutrition training06:10 What the lymphatic system actually does07:00 Fat-soluble vitamins and chylomicrons10:21 Lymphedema after cancer treatment11:15 Why lymphedema is not only breast cancer related14:16 Can metabolic health affect lymphatic healing?15:18 Keto before or during cancer treatment17:10 Leslyn's lymphedema research21:41 What lipedema looks like23:25 How to recognize lipedema24:17 Painful fat is not normal26:29 Family history and hidden lipedema28:25 Keto as a treatment hypothesis30:08 Traditional lipedema treatment31:04 Can keto reduce the need for compression?33:41 Compression therapy explained35:00 Finding trained lymphatic therapists37:05 Why lipedema is more recognized now39:06 Lipedema in the GLP-1 era41:24 GLP-1s, fibrosis, and lipedema42:37 Who studies the lymphatic system?44:06 Does lipedema belong in obesity medicine?46:51 Surgery for lymphedema48:24 Hormones, IUDs, and lipedema flares49:41 Keto and pain reduction in weeks50:04 Leslyn Keith's books51:21 New textbook on lipedema53:12 Where to find Leslyn Keith55:00 Closing thoughts#Lipedema #Lymphedema #KetoMadeSimpleFor more Reacts Videos Click Here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL55Chm2jfDSpOrkAYNuux9Pri4k5QmrZu

Planning your tummy tuck recovery at home? In this solo episode of Big Butts No Lies, Mavi shares an updated recovery masterclass packed with raw, real notes straight from her post-op facility, The Recovery Haven. Mavi dives deep into what the first week after surgery actually looks like, starting with the reality of post-op pain and why the old myth that liposuction hurts less than a tummy tuck is completely false. She breaks down the exact gear you need to stay independent and comfortable, explaining why an electric power-lift recliner is vastly superior to a bed, and why a toilet riser is an absolute 10/10 game changer. You will learn how to safely build a "nest" if you are recovering from a combined tummy tuck and BBL, how to safely navigate your first shower, and why wearing a Stage 1 compression garment that is too tight can dangerously cut off your circulation. Plus, Mavi tackles the ultimate post-op hurdle—the brutal battle against narcotic-induced constipation—and shares her exact protocol for getting your bowels moving safely. ⏱️  Chapters00:00 — Notes From The Recovery Haven 02:55 — The Reality of Post-Op Pain 04:27 — Recliner vs. Bed for Home Recovery 08:42 — How to Recover Safely with a Tummy Tuck + BBL 12:11 — Essential Home Recovery Gear 14:03 — Walking, Blood Clots & Compression Socks 15:12 — Your First Post-Op Shower 16:15 — Choosing the Right Stage 1 Compression 18:53 — Managing Post-Op Constipation 21:00 — Mental Recovery & The Recovery Haven#TummyTuckRecovery #HomeRecovery #LiposuctionPain #Abdominoplasty #Stage1Garment #PlasticSurgeryRecovery #TheRecoveryHaven #PostOpConstipation #BBLNest #BigButtsNoLies✨SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: @bigbuttsnoliespodcastThe Recovery Haven Instagram: @plasticsurgeryrecoveryhavenSend us Fan MailSupport the show

What Makes a Sports Bra Actually Work?A conversation with Nicola, senior researcher in bra and breast biomechanics at the University of PortsmouthIn this episode, I speak with Nicola about the science behind sports bras, breast movement, and what actually contributes to support during activity.Nicola works in breast and bra biomechanics, a field that looks at how breast tissue moves, how that movement changes during different activities, and how bras can help control that movement. We talk about why sports bras are much more than a comfort item: they are an important piece of equipment that can affect whether women feel able to run, train, compete, and stay physically active.A major focus of the conversation is a University of Portsmouth study looking at how different sports bra design features affect performance. The study tested 98 sports bras on 77 women in 34B and 34D sizes to understand which design features reduced breast movement during running.The paper identified five key sports bra characteristics linked to performance:Bra style: Encapsulation and combination styles performed better than compression-only styles.Material: Bras made primarily from nylon performed better than those made primarily from polyester.Underband adjustability: Adjustable underbands were linked with better support than pullover styles.Padding: Padding appeared to contribute to movement reduction, not just modesty.Neckline height: Higher necklines were associated with better support than lower necklines.One of the most interesting parts of the episode is the idea that sports bra performance is not just about making a bra tighter. Breast tissue moves forward and back, side to side, and up and down, and different sports create different movement patterns. This means a bra that works well for running may not be the same bra someone wants for weightlifting, rowing, golf, or other sports.Nicola also explains why compression bras are not always enough, especially for larger cup sizes. Compression styles hold the breasts against the chest wall, while encapsulation styles support each breast individually. Combination styles can offer both the structure of encapsulation and the familiar “held in” feeling of compression.We also discuss how much is still unknown. Even after identifying several design features that contribute to sports bra performance, a large portion of what makes a sports bra work remains unexplained. That leaves room for more research into fit, materials, movement, comfort, breathing, and sport-specific design.Sports bras are often treated as a simple clothing purchase, but this conversation frames them as a health and participation issue. A poorly fitting or poorly performing sports bra can affect comfort, confidence, posture, breathing, and whether someone wants to keep participating in sport or exercise.Nicola also talks about the importance of getting this information to the people who need it, including athletes, school girls, and everyday consumers. The goal is not just better products, but better education, so women and girls know they do not have to accept pain, discomfort, or lack of support as normal.Referenced paper: Norris, M., Blackmore, T., Horler, B., & Wakefield-Scurr, J.

A poet who has lived two decades with incurable cancer on what faith sounds like when God feels more absent than present. Christian Wiman joins Mark Labberton to talk poetry, suffering, and friendship. "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Wiman reflects on writing "Every Riven Thing" after a single church service, surviving a last-resort clinical trial, and the friendship behind his new book with Miroslav Volf. Together they discuss the paradox at the heart of poetry, grief that explodes into joy, and why joy asks something of us. They also weigh Heschel and Lewis's clarity, the friendless American male, and chance turned into destiny by constant choice. Episode Highlights "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." "I would not let go of my despair, even though the poems were showing me something else." "Joy asks something of us on the other side." "The relief came from the communion between people." "I think that that was quite a shock to me to realize that we were each envying what the other had." About Christian Wiman Christian Wiman is a poet, essayist, editor, and translator, and the Clement-Muehl Professor of Communication Arts at Yale Divinity School, where he teaches religion and literature with the Yale Institute of Sacred Music. From 2003 to 2013 he edited Poetry, the oldest magazine of verse in the English-speaking world, tripling its circulation and earning two National Magazine Awards. He is the author, editor, or translator of more than a dozen books, including Every Riven Thing, the memoirs My Bright Abyss and He Held Radical Light, and the genre-blending Zero at the Bone. A former Guggenheim Fellow with two honorary doctorates, he has written candidly about faith and a long struggle with incurable cancer.

The last two weeks were a lot, demanding but the good kind of hard, the kind you actually work toward for years. If you've ever looked at your life and thought, I am doing everything right and I am still completely wrecked, why is this so hard? Push play now. Brandon and I pulled back the curtain on what it actually looks like to run a business, show up for your kids, navigate your own health, and try to take care of yourself all at the same time, without pretending any of it was graceful. There's something we talk about in this episode that I don't think gets enough airtime: the moment you realize a goal you've been holding onto has to go on the shelf for a bit, not because you failed, but because something bigger needed your WHOLE attention. And what happens in your nervous system when you finally let yourself do that. Brandon gets real about something he's been quietly navigating for a long time, and why taking it seriously right now is one of the hardest things he's done, harder, he says, than getting sober.  We talk about what it costs to add one new thing to a life that's already full, why "just do the healthy thing" is some of the most tone-deaf advice on the planet, and what it actually looks like to make decisions from your values instead of your anxiety when your CLC score is through the roof. This one's raw and if you're a high-achieving entrepreneur trying to figure out how to not lose your shit, or yourself while your life is actively demanding everything you've got, we get it.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This series is dedicated to exploring little-known—and occasionally useful—trinkets lurking in the dusty corners of UNIX-like operating systems. In UNIX Curio #4 ( HPR episode 4617 ), I teased the subject of file compression. Today I'm circling back to that. The history of data compression goes back at least to the 1970s, and in contexts outside UNIX and computers, probably even earlier. Somehow, it is refreshing to learn that humans have always struggled to have enough storage space to keep all the data they want to hang on to. One way around this limitation is to use some form of compression. I am only going to dive into lossless compression for this episode—that is, a compression method that can be reversed and will spit out the original data bit for bit. Lossy compression methods also have their places: you might be familiar with their use for audio (such as Ogg Vorbis or MP3); it's also used for images (such as JPEG). Lossy compression allows some of the original data to be thrown away, resulting in a smaller file than is possible with lossless compression, but the intent is for the result to still sound or look "good enough" to a human observer. Also, I am going to limit my discussion to generic methods used for many types of data; while FLAC does lossless compression, it is specifically designed just for audio. I should make clear that I have never studied computer science or information theory, so this episode will not get into the science behind various types of compression algorithms and how they differ. But in general, these methods take advantage of the fact that many types of data have recurring patterns. English text mostly consists of words that often re-appear many times—source code similarly has keywords and variable names that recur. Compression is accomplished by representing a piece of data that occurs multiple times with a symbol that is shorter in length. The first compression program in the UNIX world I could find is called pack , from 1978 1 . It was shortly followed in 1979 by a similar program called compact 2 . Both of these used a technique called Huffman coding, but with some differences between them. Files compressed with pack were given a .z extension and compact gave filenames a .C extension. Roughly every five or ten years after this, a new program would come along and achieve lasting popularity. There were, and still are, two opposing forces facing any new form of compression. Working in favor was the advantages it provided—first among these was achieving a better compression ratio, but performance improvements such as speed or reduced memory usage could also be compelling. The force against any new method was the fact that it was not yet widely supported—it doesn't much help to have a smaller file if the people you share it with cannot decompress it. The next major advance in compression arose out of three scientific papers: two in 1977 and 1978 by Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv (called LZ77 and LZ78), and one by Terry Welch in 1984 which built on LZ78. This last method is typically referred to as LZW. Our UNIX Curio for today is a program called compress 3 that implements the LZW method. Files compressed this way are named with the extension .Z . I had always assumed that this was to honor Jacob Ziv, but now that I've researched the history, it seems more likely to be a follow-on from how files compressed by pack were named. Since pack did not use any of the Lempel-Ziv methods, I would guess that it used .z because that wasn't already taken by anything else, but that's pure speculation. I do recall encountering .Z files in the wild, but feel certain that hasn't happened in the last 25 years, maybe longer. If you need to expand one of these, uncompress 4 is the program to use ( GNU's gunzip can also handle them 5 ). However, there was a serious problem that arose with the LZ78 and LZW compression methods. Both of them were patented, and the owner became aggressive in seeking payment from developers and users. The compress utility was developed within two months of the publication of Welch's 1984 paper and was included in Bell Laboratories' Eighth Edition UNIX before these shakedowns started. The paper did not disclose that a patent had been filed, and apparently Spencer Thomas and the other developers of compress were unaware of it. The utility became popular for a while, and was even standardized by POSIX, but people moved away from LZW once the legal threats started. Another important advance came in 1991 and was called the DEFLATE compression method. It combined the un-patented LZ77 method with Huffman coding to achieve a similar level of compression as LZW (actually, often better) without the legal trouble. DEFLATE was developed for PKZIP and was soon adopted by the GNU project's gzip compressor. While Phil Katz (the "PK" in PKZIP ) patented one way of implementing the DEFLATE method, it was possible to write a compressor and decompressor without infringing 6 ; also, he apparently never tried to enforce the patent 7 . As I mentioned in UNIX Curio #4, .zip is both an archive and a compression format. Each archive member can be compressed with one of several possible methods (or stored without compression). Unlike a tar file where compression can be applied to the entire archive, in .zip each archive member is compressed individually. This often means a .zip file will be slightly bigger than a tar file with the same contents compressed with gzip , because the .zip format cannot take advantage of duplication that occurs among more than one member of the archive. The vast majority of .zip files use only the DEFLATE and uncompressed storage methods and these are the only options if you want to follow the profile standardized in ISO/IEC 21320-1. Actually, since they both use DEFLATE, gzip is able to extract a .zip file in the special case where it only holds one member compressed with that method. From the 1990s onward, people paid significant attention to avoiding patent landmines, so only methods that didn't have that problem became broadly popular. While the patents on LZ78 and LZW have since expired, I feel like their most successful legacy was in discouraging people from using those methods, leading to DEFLATE taking the popularity crown. The next step came in 1996 and 1997 with the development of bzip and bzip2 by Julian Seward. The original method was quickly followed by bzip2 , which was the version that achieved true popularity. They use the Burrows-Wheeler transform, which does not itself compress data but re-arranges it to make it more compressible; this is combined with other techniques 8 . (At least, that's my understanding. I told you, I'm not up on information theory.) This provides a significant reduction in the compressed size of the data compared to earlier methods—however, it is slower than DEFLATE both during compression and decompression. Separate projects have developed parallel versions of gzip and bzip2 that can take advantage of multi-processor machines, but the original utilities run single-threaded. Another five years later, in 2001, Igor Pavlov added the Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain algorithm (LZMA), an enhancement to LZ77, to his 7-Zip compression tool. This was followed a few years later by LZMA2, a container format that allowed for LZMA compression to be split between multiple threads. Broad LZMA2 support came to the UNIX world in 2009 with the xz utility 9 . It offers roughly similar compression ratios to bzip2 , though it can be better or worse depending on the data to be compressed. While compression generally takes even longer than bzip2 , decompression is significantly faster (though still not as fast as gzip ). The Linux kernel relatively quickly supported booting from xz-compressed images 10 because it was a good match for that use case—compression, the time-consuming activity, only has to be done once while the more frequent decompression during boot happens relatively fast. The last method I will cover is Zstandard 11 , often written as zstd . This came about in 2015, and is another variation on LZ77 that uses finite-state entropy (which means nothing to me, but you might understand it). It performs about as well as DEFLATE in terms of compression ratios, but is much faster both when compressing and decompressing data. I should say that these statements are true with the typical default settings—depending on the compression level selected, it can compress more slowly, but compress the data smaller. However, decompression is always speedier than DEFLATE. This makes it attractive for some uses, and it is heavily promoted by Meta/Facebook, where Yann Collet developed it. For example, shipping large amounts of actively-used data between machines in a data center can go more quickly when the size is reduced; however, if the compression and decompression steps take too long that benefit is lost. A speedy method can be valuable even if it doesn't result in the greatest reduction in size. This use case stands in contrast to, say, a compressed backup file which might only be accessed in a disaster recovery scenario or never accessed at all, making size more important than speed. Both the xz and zstd utilities have some built-in support for multi-threading, but the default is to run in a single thread. While xz can use multiple threads for decompression (but only if the file was compressed in multi-thread mode), the reference zstd utility can only use more than one thread for compression, not decompression. There are many other methods of lossless compression that have been developed over the decades, but I believe these are the ones you are most likely to encounter in the world of UNIX-like systems. This is a personal opinion, and others might choose a different set. As mentioned, it can be tough for a new method to gain popularity and 35-year-old DEFLATE is still probably the most commonly used despite not being the fastest or offering the greatest reduction in size. Even systems like FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD that do not like to include GNU tools supported it by developing their own version of gzip based on the permissively-licensed zlib library. Technically, the LZW method used by the compress utility is still standardized by POSIX, so one might expect it to have the widest support. However, aggressive patent enforcement discouraged adoption, especially by Free and Open Source Software systems—even though the patent has expired, it is still out of favor compared to DEFLATE. For this reason, I feel justified in calling it a curio.

While not totally rigorous, I did run each compression and decompression multiple times to ensure I was getting consistent results. The laptop I used has an Intel Core i5-6200U CPU running at 2.30GHz, and the system had at least 5 GB of free memory for each run. While this processor has two cores and can run four simultaneous threads, all utilities were run single-threaded. The term "best" means the highest level of compression available (the exact level used is shown). For bzip2 , the default is the best. For zstd , "best" is -19, which is the highest "normal" level, but "ultra" levels that are even higher also exist. Ratios are the percentage of the original size that the file was reduced to (other sources might instead express the compression ratio as the reduction in size achieved).

What nobody tells you about facelifts, the real talk on natural results, real costs, and what actually matters. My plastic surgeon looked at my facelift consultation list and said no to half of it. Honestly? That's when I knew he was the right one. Listen to all the BTS of My Facelift Journey 

Nathan, Matt, and David put a series of common running beliefs to the test in a round of Fact or Fiction. They dig into questions about training, biomechanics, and gear — weighing the evidence on everything from compression socks and treadmill incline settings to warmup routines, arch support, and what the research actually says about running efficiency and injury risk.Get your DOR Merch: https://doctors-of-running.myspreadshop.com/Rabbit is the presenting partner of our podcast.

In this episode, we explore autism, identity, intuition, & the tension between authenticity and social conformity through psychology and philosophy. Expanding from part 1 & Carl Jung's work, we add Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, & Dostoevsky, and ask a deeper question: what happens when someone is naturally more connected to their internal structure than to the social roles the world expects them to perform? Topics include sensory processing, visual thinking, pattern recognition, the psychological cost of masking, and the struggle between the “self” and the persona people present to the world.This conversation explores why many autistic individuals experience tension not because of who they are, but because of constant pressure to become someone else. We discuss intuition, internal consistency, social adaptation, individuality, meaning, and the challenge of staying connected to yourself in a world that often rewards performance over authenticity. Rather than viewing autism only through deficits or labels, this episode examines it as a different orientation toward perception, identity, and human experience itself.Part 1 https://youtu.be/fqDAfjMXTBQ?si=Sf918WWPsyIsnNKQMAYU Water, use "autism" for 10% off at https://mayuwater.comDaylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismand Daylight Kids (!!!) https://kids.daylightcomputer.com/autism ‪Chroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autism00:00 – MAYU Water01:12 – Daylight Computer Company & Daylight Kids02:19 – Chroma Light Devices03:27 Introduction; autism, the self, and the tension between the individual and society05:05 Friedrich Nietzsche and the “herd”; stability, conformity, prediction, and why systems resist difference07:50 Immediate certainty, misunderstanding, and why insight depends on the structure receiving it09:38 Becoming vs being formed; imitation, social reinforcement, and developing from within11:40 Søren Kierkegaard, “the crowd is untruth,” and the danger of losing the self14:10 Internal alignment, masking, adaptation, and the cost of staying true to your structure17:36 Fyodor Dostoevsky; deep processing, overthinking, and translating complex internal worlds into social reality20:02 Compression, misunderstanding, and why depth can appear “wrong” to the external world22:05 Schools, workplaces, autism, stimming, eye contact, and the difference between “error” versus alternative structure25:14 Closing; the tension between internal structure and external expectation, and why the traits that create friction are often the ones that move systems forwardX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/@FromTheSpectrumemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Uterine compression sutures are effective, uterus-sparing techniques for managing severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) due to atony, avoiding hysterectomy. Keytypes include the B-Lynch suture (vertical, brace-like), Hayman suture (simplified vertical), and Pereira sutures (multiple, comprehensive sutures), and Cho Compression (quadrant square anterior to posterior closures), are applied when pharmacological methods fail. But these, while helpful with atony, do not address the LUS bleeding from previa which are below these applications. Even the O'Leary lateral sutures are often higher tha the bleeding and thin, anterior LUS affected by previa. Previa is a significant risk factor for PPH. In this episode, we will highlight 3 novel suture techniques which have been in print (TWO as recent as January 2026) which can be effective in stopping the LUS bleeding and avoiding hysterectomy. We will highlight the transverse circumferential purse string, the simple transverse Nausicaa suture, and theLUS WaveForm suture. These are easy to use and may be lifesaving. 1.   Shih J, Li J, Kang J .The Nausicaä suture in the management of the placenta accreta spectrum. AJOG.

Why do some experts command the boardroom while others are seen only as data recorders? Join Dr. Grace's Mastery Accelerator to move beyond the information hierarchy and start delivering the high-stakes synthesis executives actually value: https://masteryinsights.com/mentorship-pc What is the CHIEF Framework? The CHIEF Framework is a proprietary communication architecture (Capital Contextualization, Conclusion Headlining, Insight Synthesis, Trade-off Exposure, and Horizon Future-casting) engineered to optimize Information Economics within the C-suite. Designed by Dr. Grace, this five-pillar system transitions professionals from tactical operators to strategic advisors by shifting the unit of communication from raw data to wisdom. Key Concepts Information Economics: The principle of treating executive attention as a high-cost organizational resource that requires a maximized return on investment. The Hierarchy of Value: A structural ranking where Data and Information function as low-influence inputs, while Insight and Wisdom activate peer-level strategic positioning. Compression as Competence Signal: The capacity to condense complex context into its "minimum effective dose" as a direct signal of situational clarity and command. The Law of Conservation of Effort: A principle of intellectual honesty stating that any forecasted gain in one business quadrant necessarily produces a proportional cost or risk in another.

https://teachhoops.com/ Coaching can often feel like being on an island. You are expected to have the answer for every late-game scenario, every player conflict, and every parental concern, often with very little objective feedback. The One-on-One Member Call is designed to break that isolation. It moves the conversation from general "best practices" to specific program solutions. Whether you are struggling to implement a new motion offense or trying to fix a toxic locker room, having a dedicated "Second Set of Eyes" allows you to audit your program in real-time. This isn't just a Q&A; it's a strategic deep dive into the unique DNA of your team. The true value of these calls lies in the Compression of the Learning Curve. Instead of spending three seasons of "trial and error" trying to figure out why your press isn't working, a fifteen-minute focused conversation can identify the technical leak—whether it's your "trapping angles" or your "interceptors' positioning." By sharing your film or your practice plans, you receive Immediate, Actionable Feedback that you can take to the gym the very next day. This level of personalized mentorship is the "Force Multiplier" that helps good coaches become elite leaders. Finally, these calls provide Professional Emotional Support. Every coach faces "The Grind"—those weeks in January where the shots aren't falling and the energy is low. A one-on-one call serves as a "Reset Button," providing a fresh perspective that helps you refocus on your "Process" rather than the "Scoreboard." Use these sessions to "Stress-Test" your ideas before you bring them to your team. When you have a trusted mentor in your corner, you lead with more Poise, Confidence, and Clarity. It's the difference between "guessing" your way through a season and "navigating" it with a proven map.
