Shampoo, lotions, guns, knives and a lot of other things are confiscated at airport security checkpoints every day. What happens to all those things? Can you ever get them back? This episode starts by taking a look. https://www.rd.com/article/return-confiscated-items-tsa/ Even if you don't believe in them, you probably participate in some superstitions. Maybe you knock on wood or avoid walking under a ladder or steer clear of black cats. Where do these superstitions come from? Why do they still exist since we know they don't really do anything? Here to explain this is Arie Kaplan, who has written numerous books and graphic novels and is also a television writer. Arie is author of a book called The Encyclopedia of Curious Rituals and Superstitions: Ancient and Remarkable Traditions That Will Captivate Your Mind (https://amzn.to/44xpZ8m). It is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's ride through Boston. While you likely learned something about it in school, there is much more to the story you probably don't know. Not only was Paul Revere a skilled horseman, he was also a “self-taught” dentist, bell maker and an excellent silversmith and engraver. And there is much more to his legacy as you will hear from my guest Kostya Kennedy. He is a former senior writer and editor at Sports Illustrated and has written books about Jackie Robinson, Joe DiMaggio and Pete Rose. He is also author of the book, The Ride: Paul Revere and the Night That Saved America (https://amzn.to/4klhtyY). What is the best way to construct a fire? There is one right answer whether you are building a campfire, a bonfire or stacking charcoal in your grill. What's strange is – you instinctively know how to do it.

Dell Technologies has introduced Concept Astro, an innovation that uses AI, digital twins, and automation to optimise energy consumption and streamline data centre operations. As artificial intelligence drives a new wave of digital transformation, growing energy demands have placed immense pressure on global data infrastructure. Increasing AI adoption continues to drive energy demands in the data centre, making the need for smarter, more sustainable solutions more urgent than ever. To meet this need, Dell Technologies has introduced Concept Astro, an AI-driven workload management solution that utilises agentic AI, digital twins, and automation to optimise IT operations and energy consumption. Concept Astro enables enterprises to forecast processing times, predict energy requirements, and prioritise workloads based on business needs, energy availability, and cost without disrupting operations. During a pilot collaboration with Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, Concept Astro helped researchers optimise AI-intensive workload scheduling, leading to a 20% cost reduction and a 32% decrease in emissions. The successful trial highlights how AI-powered scheduling can deliver tangible sustainability and efficiency improvements for data centres. Dell Technologies continues to invest in energy-efficient technologies that minimise operational costs while maximising business impact. By integrating AI-powered workload scheduling and improving infrastructure efficiency, enterprises can reduce energy consumption, enhance grid resilience, and drive sustainability across their operations. Speaking about Concept Astro, Alyson Freeman, Innovation, Sustainability, and ESG lead at Dell Technologies, said: "Rising AI workloads are expected to drive higher data centre energy use, costs, and emissions. Some experts even predict data centre energy consumption could double by 2030, placing added strain on already burdened power grids. As a result, reliable, resilient and affordable energy has become a top priority for data centre operations worldwide. One of our latest explorations, Concept Astro, uses agentic AI, digital twins, and automation to spur smarter decision making to improve IT operations and energy consumption. This capability is exciting but right now just a concept, with our engineers pushing the boundaries of what is possible to deliver at scale." As Dell Technologies continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in energy-efficient AI technologies, the company is committed to supporting businesses in Ireland and globally to enhance grid resilience, reduce operational costs, and drive sustainable progress.

Having good friends can help you live longer, see the world more positively and make you look more attractive. How can that be? Listen as I explain. https://www.thehealthy.com/family/relationships/friends-facts/ We are learning more and more about the healing power of music. You already know music can help your mood or help you relax or give you motivation. But it also can help with depression, Parkinson's disease, dementia and who knows what else? Why does listening to music and making music seem to have such positive effects? Joining me to reveal the latest research on this is Stefan Koelsch. He is a neuroscientist and music psychologist who has held positions at Harvard University and is currently a professor at the University of Bergen, Norway. Stefan is also author of the book, Good Vibrations: Unlocking the Healing Power of Music (https://amzn.to/44vkdoK). The adolescent years have a reputation of being difficult. For many teens it can be a time of rebellion, testing boundaries, pushing limits, risky behavior and emotional struggle. For others – not so much. So, what goes on in the adolescent brain that causes these things? Do teens typically “grow out of it?” How were your adolescent years? Is it different and more difficult to be a teen today? Here with some answers is Matt Richtel. He is a Pulitizer prize winning reporter for the New York Times who spent nearly two years reporting on the teenage mental-health crisis for the paper's multipart series Inner Pandemic, and he is author of a book called How We Grow Up: Understanding Adolescence (https://amzn.to/4kcS22F).

Correct.   Ayse: That is absolutely right.   Carol: Ahh, it's excellent.   Intro Voice: Manager Minute brought to you by the VRTAC for Quality Management, Conversations powered by VR, one manager at a time, one minute at a time. Here is your host Carol Pankow.   Carol: Welcome to the manager minute. I'm excited to have two distinguished guests in the studio today. Doctor Ayse Torres, associate professor in the College of Education and Doctor Javad Hashemi, professor in the College of Engineering and Computer Science at Florida Atlantic University. This cracks me up because Jeff and I talked before we were recording today, and what? We haven't had such two distinguished guests on the show like you all. So glad you're here. So, Ayse, how are things going for you?   Ayse: I'm doing great. Thank you. It's exciting to be here, and I'm really looking forward to talking more about our Project AccessTECH.   Carol: Yeah. Me too. Me too. Javad, how about you? How are things going for you?   Javad: I'm doing well as well. Thank you. And thank you for this opportunity to talk to you about our new initiative, the center. It's very exciting, and there is a lot to discuss.   Carol: Well, it is very exciting. And I had a chance, I was on your website and I was reviewing the video and I'm like, oh my gosh, I got super excited. I think everybody across the country needs to hear about what's going on with your project because it is super important. So for our listeners today, we're going to dive into the Disability Innovation Fund Group F grants and funded through the US Department of Education's Rehabilitation Services Administration. And we're spotlighting a bold national initiative to design and test new strategies that help youth and adults with disabilities successfully transition into competitive, integrated employment. And Florida Atlantic University is one of 27 grantees leading this charge. Their Project AccessTECHnology is already generating attention for its focus on creating pathways into high demand technology fields like cybersecurity, cloud computing, and 3D printing. But I don't want to steal your thunder, so let's hear directly from the team behind this exciting work. So, Ayse, let's start with you. Can you introduce yourself to our listeners and tell us about your role at FAU and with the AccessTECHnology Project?   Ayse: Absolutely. My name is Ayse Torres, and I'm an associate professor in the departments of Cancer Education, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Biomedical Engineering at Florida Atlantic University. My background is deeply rooted in vocational rehabilitation, where I help individuals with disabilities transitioning into meaningful careers. I worked in different capacities at the Division of Blind Services and Division of Vocational Rehabilitation in Florida for the past eight years at Florida Atlantic University. I focus on developing evidence based strategies to enhance employment outcomes for people with disabilities. With the AccessTECH Project I serve as the principal investigator. This project is an amazing opportunity to work with incredible partners like Doctor Javad Hashemi, associate Dean of the College of Engineering and Computer Science and Dean from the same college here at Florida Atlantic.   Carol: I just think that is the coolest thing. I could not believe your background when you were telling me you were part of the rehab counseling program to I'm like, what is happening? This is like mind blowing. I think this is an amazing partnership. So Javad, same question over to you. What's your role at the university and how are you involved in the project?   Javad: Thank you for asking the question. My name is Javad Hashemi. My training is in mechanical engineering. I'm a professor of mechanical engineering, but I've done a lot of research, for example in both mechanical engineering and biomedical engineering. I'm also the associate dean of research for the College of Engineering and Computer Science. My role is to coordinate research activities at the college, within the college, and between our college and other colleges. So this AccessTECHnology is an example of the type of initiative that the College of Engineering and the College of Education together have initiated, and this AccessTECHnology program. We bring the element of technology, high tech education and education of people with disabilities in key areas that we believe the nation needs.   Carol: This is so exciting. Ayse, how did the idea for this even come about? Like, how did you two get connected and come up with this awesome project?   Ayse: This is a great question. The idea really came out of our long talks with Doctor Hashemi and our partner, Doctor Tim Tansey, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We saw the unmet needs firsthand while working with people with disabilities, and we knew the tech sector is booming. But too often people with disabilities were left out because of several barriers. But these barriers sometimes related to training programs or employers feeling unsure about hiring, well, that's where this collaboration with Doctor Hashemi and the College of Engineering came into play. We ask ourselves, what if we created a program specially designed to bridge these gaps? Well, by combining tailored training, hands on internship and soft skills development, we could not only help participants thrive, but also redefine how employers view disability in the tech world.   Carol: I'm just like in I think this is super cool and I don't know anyone doing anything like this anywhere else. So can you guys walk us through the program? Like what are participants going to experience? From the training tracks to the whole certifications and internships? Lay it all out there.   Ayse: What's happening, of course, AccessTECH is divided into three main phases. First of all, we begin with Tech Prep, which is a program designed to build participants confidence in foundational employment soft skills. Then we move into specialized training tracks. Participants choose one of the three areas based on their interest and career goals. Cybersecurity, cloud computing or computer aided design and 3D printing. These tracks are hands on and immersive, running for 3 to 6 months and ending with a certification that's recognized across the industry. And lastly, participants engage with Paid Internship, which I highlight its paid internship with our industry partners like Dell Technologies. These real world experiences give them the chance to apply their skills, build professional networks, and gain footing in competitive workplaces. Our partners play a huge role here, not just by offering internships, by fostering rich environments that truly welcome different talents.   Carol: So I know you mentioned Dell, who are like your other key partners in this initiative. And are there opportunities for other people to get involved as the project expands?   Ayse: We have been building an incredible network of partners. This includes state vocational rehabilitation agencies across the country, community rehabilitation programs, and employers in the tech industry. Our advisory board also features stakeholders from disability organizations, local leaders and people with disabilities to ensure we are aligning with real community needs. Well, this is a great place to say, Carol, I'm just going to go ahead and say, for those who are interested in getting involved, we are always looking to expand our network. Whether you're an employer who wants to host interns or in agencies seeking resources for our clients, there is a place for you here in AccessTECH. Doctor Hashemi, what do you think?   Javad: I think it's exactly right. We have an advisory board that consists of more than 15 local companies. And all of these companies have committed to support this initiative. They're all very excited. And as we are advancing in the project, we are contacting and recruiting more companies. I think I had an idea to expand this to other states. We're going to pursue some of the venues that Ayse has thought of, and I think this number of companies will expand. The good thing about the program is that it can be done online. For example, the company could be in California, they could hire somebody in Pennsylvania, and the person in Pennsylvania can do this, that work in an online manner. Cybersecurity, you know, cloud computing solutions, these are all type of jobs that can be done online. We hope to expand this industry base that supports this project.   Carol: That really is the beauty of this project, because I think about some of our customers who are, you know, they're stuck really because of the rural nature of where they may live. They may not have access to some really awesome opportunities. But the pandemic showed us the world can be connected via the computer. You can get anywhere. And so as long as they can get some access to broadband and be able to get online, they could do the work. I think that is super cool. And what role does Tim Tansey play in this as your partner.   Ayse: He is such a great support for us. Like I cannot just say one word as his role. He has been from the beginning as been with us designing this study, every piece, every aspect of it. And also Doctor Emily Brink is working with us. This is such a great team that we are working with, and we can't do any of this without their support. They're super valuable.   Carol: Yeah, absolutely. I know that both of them, they've done a really good job because they've currently got the Quality Employment Initiative, the Technical Assistance Center, funded by RSA. So they have a lot of like real life experience to what's going on, Boots on the ground.   Ayse: Exactly.   Javad: Tim and Emily's role is really, really important in terms of doing the prep for our applicants, how to deal with industry, how to have a role in the work environment, how to communicate, how to collaborate in a team environment. I think these are the aspects that are truly important. They are equally and maybe even more important than the technology itself. So Tim and Emily's role I agree with Ayse is just crucial.   Carol: I think the cool thing about you guys is usually folks get these grants and it takes a long time for that to launch, but you all are already off and running. I mean, I can't even believe it. So we know you've launched your first cohort and you have this fully functional website. You have. All this stuff is out there already. What should state VR agencies know now that you're at go time, you're at the implementation stage. So what should our state VR agencies know about this.   Ayse: So as you said, we are so excited to share that we have officially formed our first cohort of participants. This is incredible. The first group includes individuals with different disabilities and a wide range of career interests in tech. They're about to kick off our first phase of the tech program. If you remember, I mentioned that this phase is all about enhancing soft skills. This is going to be great. Additionally, our fully functional website has been a game changer. It serves as the central hub for everything from detailed information about the program to easy online application. Everything is in one place in our website for the state VR agencies. Now is the perfect time to connect your participants with us, because the program is in full swing and we are excited to welcome participants from all over the country. AccessTECH makes the application process super simple. Participants can just head to our website and apply on their own. It's all about empowerment. If you want to refer your clients, just share our website with them. We have set up an easy three step application portal to make things so easy and smooth as possible.   Carol: I just want to underscore that I heard you right. This is a national initiative and participants can join from anywhere, Correct?   Ayse: That is absolutely right.   Carol: Ahh, it's excellent. So what is your recruitment strategy and how are you ensuring accessibility for this kind of broad audience?   Ayse: So AccessTECH is designed to reach people all across the country, whether you're in a big city or a small town. If you have a disability, a high school diploma and an interest in tech, this is just for you. When it comes to recruitment, the R strategy is multi-layered, but currently our recruitment plan focuses on to connect with state VR agencies and community organizations across the country. Also, our website is the central piece of scaling the program. It's not just informative but also functional, allowing anyone interested to quickly apply, learn about training tracks, or even connect with our team for questions by using strategic outreach. We are ensuring AccessTECH creates opportunities for a nationwide pool of participants.   Carol: How many people could participate in a cohort at a time?   Ayse: We are keeping the cohorts at this moment small, like 12 to 15, because we are actually piloting everything that we established in the past six months for the first time. This number will increase as the time goes by. This project is, you know, it's 4 or 5 years. So our goal is to reach 240 by the end of five years.   Carol: Nice, nice. So looking ahead, what's the long term impact that you hope to achieve overall? At the end of the program, you're looking back, end of five years, you right in the report, what's it say?   Ayse: Well I would say our goal for participant is very simple yet powerful to equip them with the skills, confidence and networks they need to build sustainable careers in technology. On a broader level, we aim to strengthen the tech industry workforce. What do you think, Doctor Hashemi?   Javad: I agree, I think that our main goal at the end of the project is to have a significant number of our applicants actually working with industry and having gained enough experience, like Ayse said, to have a sustainable career in any of these three tracks that we have developed. That's our goal.   Ayse: I would also add that once we demonstrate success in tech, we can apply similar models to other fields like robotics or programming and continue breaking barriers.   Carol: I love it, you guys, I think this is brilliant. And what's so wonderful is it's transferable. Other people are going to pick up on this idea, and it can be replicated elsewhere across the country. Like you said, different industries can get focused on having that same sort of partnership, but you give it that, kind of, that, oh, to go, and to go do this really well. So how can people get in touch or learn more about the project? You talked about the website. Can you give us the website address?   Ayse: Yes. You can visit our website at. www.FaU.edu/AccessTech. This is going to take you to a place to explore the program in detail and find contact information and apply to the program.   Carol: Very cool. Any other things you want our listeners to know about today about you?   Ayse: Very excited to receive applications and altogether strengthen this workforce.   Carol: I agree, I think this is great. I'm hoping you get a flood of applicants, I really do. I wish you both much success.   Ayse: Thank you, Carol, so much for having us.   Javad: Thank you very much, Appreciate it.   Carol: Thanks for being here. You're welcome. Good to have you.   {Music} Outro Voice: Conversations powered by VR, one manager at a time, one minute at a time, brought to you by the VR TAC for Quality Management.

Dell Technologies is al jaren bekend vanwege de hardware die in veel bedrijfspanden terug te vinden is. Alleen maar teren op de laptops en computers is echter al langer geen optie meer voor de tech-gigant. Het nieuwe debet is data-opslag. Steeds meer bedrijven spelen in op de hype rondom AI, maar dat kost een hoop data en rekenkracht en dat moet Dell faciliteren. Dat kost een hoop innovatiekracht en investeringen, waardoor topman Michael Dell ook kritischer is gaan kijken naar zijn eigen organisatie. ‘Leaner and meaner’ is het nieuwe plan van aanpak, ook in de Benelux. Isabel Moll heeft het bedrijf door deze reorganisatie moeten leiden, maar hoe heeft ze dat gedaan? Isabel Moll, managing director van Dell Technologies Benelux is te gast in BNR Zakendoen.

Ce vendredi x mois année, Liste INVITES et FONCTiON, se sont penchés sur les titres (....à lister... ), dans On achète ou on vend ? dans l'émission C'est Votre Argent présentée par Marc Fiorentino. C'est Votre Argent est à voir ou écouter le vendredi sur B

Dell Technologies has today announced that it has teamed up with the Crann Centre, a Cork-based charity, to develop an AI-powered solution that enhances care for children, adults and families living with neuro-physical disabilities. This collaboration has resulted in the development of a bespoke AI-powered intake application that reduces the administrative burden on Crann staff, streamlines intake processes, and enhances organisational efficiencies and service delivery. The collaboration began as a local volunteering connection, and it has since evolved into a relationship that harnesses the power of AI to support how care is delivered to families living with neuro-physical disabilities. Dell Technologies' Global Presales team worked closely with Crann to streamline their intake process, reducing processing time by 33%, enhancing data capture, and improving the overall experience for families. The solution has transformed how Crann performs its client intake appointments, improving the consistency and quality of data captured. The final step, currently in progress, will be the full integration of the app with Crann's Salesforce system to ensure a single and reliable data source. With fewer administrative burdens, the Crann team can now devote more time to delivering personalised support, strengthening relationships, and improving care outcomes. This collaboration is a testament to how AI can be used for societal good, increasing Crann's capacity to serve more families without requiring additional resources. Speaking about the collaboration Des O'Sullivan, Vice President, Dell Technologies Customer Solution Centres said "At Dell Technologies, we believe innovation truly matters when it drives meaningful change in people's lives. Through a shared commitment of making a difference, our team at Dell Technologies collaborated with Crann to develop an AI-powered solution keeping in mind Crann's deep-rooted commitment to family-centred wraparound care. "With the AI-powered solution that our team helped to create, Crann has increased capacity, allowing them to serve more families than requiring additional resources. The benefits extend far beyond efficiency; Crann team members now have the time and space to focus on deep, meaningful interactions with clients and their families, strengthening emotional and practical support. "As we look to the future, we're proud of what has been achieved. Our Dell Technologies team in Ireland and our broader Global Presales team has been at the heart of this journey, bringing Dell's AI innovation to life in a way that delivers real and lasting value to our community partners." The Dell-built solution is designed with future scalability in mind, offering a framework that can be adapted across sectors such as education and customer service. Crann, which offers wraparound services focused on improving independence and wellbeing, now has increased capacity to deliver support that spans generations underpinned by a shared commitment to personalised care and innovation.

The Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) has joined forces with Dell Technologies to develop a new AI platform that will advance research in cybersecurity, sustainability, healthcare and robotics. TUS established the Software Research Institute (SRI) with the goal to develop a leading national research lab, focused on driving innovation in the fields of cybersecurity, cloud-edge computing, robotic control, smart agriculture and healthcare. The new AI platform, powered by Dell PowerEdge servers, will help researchers gain real-time insights into large datasets and develop advanced AI models that power their research. The new AI platform will also support a number of cutting-edge research projects undertaken by TUS and funded by Horizon Europe, the European Union's key programme for research and innovation. This includes projects such as ResilMesh, which focuses on the cyber resilience of critical infrastructure and digital services. It aims to develop advanced tools and mechanisms to detect, prevent, and respond to increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and attacks. Another key initiative is SoilCrates, which is dedicated to restoring and preserving soil health. Through improved soil literacy, real-time monitoring of soil structure, promotion of biodiversity, and optimisation of crop-growing conditions, the project aims to support a more sustainable and resilient agricultural ecosystem. Additionally, the university is one of 17 research and development (R&D) centres in Ireland that runs research projects for the COMAND Technology Gateway Program that is set up in collaboration with Enterprise Ireland Innovation. Based at SRIs TUS Athlone campus, COMAND focuses on research and innovation in areas such as Augmenting User Interactions, End-to-end Applications and Intelligent Infrastructure. Under the COMAND program, the Dell-powered AI platform will be used to develop LLM-based chatbots to support programs around elderly care, automation of automotive assembly lines and robotics using imitation learning. More broadly, the new AI platform will provide the university with powerful AI compute capabilities to support data-intensive research, helping to accelerate data analysis and automate repetitive tasks - boosting research productivity by up to 50%, according to studies. The high-performance Dell PowerEdge servers are purpose-built for demanding AI workloads, delivering exceptional computing power. The servers feature a Cyber Resilient Architecture that offers multi-layered security to safeguard systems, detect threats, and ensure end-to-end data protection. This provides researchers with an IT environment that can simulate complex attacks, identify weaknesses in IT systems more efficiently and provide more accurate analysis on emerging cyber threats for organisations. Dr Yuansong Qiao, Senior Research Fellow, Software Research Institute at TUS, said: "Harnessing the power of AI has become increasingly important to advancing research in critical areas such as cybersecurity and robotics, which require analysis of increasingly large data sets. That's why it's crucial that TUS has the right infrastructure to manage the intensive workloads of advanced AI-powered research. Our collaboration with Dell Technologies delivers these capabilities and ensures that our researchers can now build highly complex AI models to examine and test more effective defence systems in cybersecurity and other domains." Jason Ward, EMEA North Vice-President and Managing Director of Dell Technologies Ireland, said: "As a global leader in compute, Dell Technologies is at the forefront of enterprise AI adoption, providing the cutting-edge technology and expertise that organisations in Ireland and worldwide need to adopt, scale and thrive with AI. This work represents a good example of Dell's dedication to expanding Europe's AI ecosystem, through our AI solutions and expertise making a real difference in critical industries like healthcare and susta...

A Note from James:Michael Dell. Founder of Dell. I remember in college, hearing about this kid who was building computers in his dorm and making millions. I thought it was a myth. It wasn't. He's the real thing—and he just kept going.I wanted to understand what drove him, what it felt like to deal with Carl Icahn trying to wrestle his company from him, and what success feels like after decades of being in the game. Also: I had to ask why Dell didn't invent Google. That, plus how he's now thinking about AI, cancer, and what “focus” really means.Episode Description:James Altucher sits down with Michael Dell, founder and CEO of Dell Technologies, to trace the entire arc of Dell's career—from building computers in a college dorm room to defending his company against Carl Icahn and taking it private. In this candid conversation, Dell shares how early obsession with tech and business turned into a multibillion-dollar global enterprise, the lessons he's learned about leadership, and how he's positioning for the future with AI, cybersecurity, and gene tech on the horizon.This is more than a business story. It's about risk, conviction, reinvention—and knowing when to walk away from Steve Jobs.What You'll Learn:How Dell's dorm-room business scaled to $80,000/month before he even left collegeWhat Michael Dell really thought during his showdown with Carl IcahnWhy most big companies fail to innovate—and how to keep a startup mindsetHow Dell Technologies is preparing for the explosion in AI and edge computingWhat makes a good leader at the head of a $100 billion companyTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] James introduces Michael Dell and the origin story of Dell Computers[01:00] The economics of building PCs in the early 1980s[03:00] Winning state bids with a bike and a dorm room[05:00] Pressure to become a doctor—and the 10-day “intervention”[10:00] Meeting Steve Jobs and licensing DOS from Bill Gates[13:00] Dell's early B2B focus and international expansion[15:00] Going public and the Icahn showdown[18:00] How activist investors play poker with billion-dollar stakes[21:00] What focus really means in business[24:00] Defining leadership at global scale[26:00] Encouraging innovation inside massive companies[28:00] The failed Mac OS licensing deal[30:00] Philanthropy, education, and urban poverty[33:00] COVID lockdowns and a $100M response[35:00] The future of work and city migration[39:00] AI, edge computing, and exponential data[42:00] Gene editing, mRNA vaccines, and solving cancer[45:00] Blockchain in enterprise (no bitcoin on Dell's balance sheet—yet)[47:00] Why cybersecurity is an arms raceAdditional Resources:Play Nice But Win – Michael Dell's memoir (Amazon)Dell Technologies – Official websiteJudge rejects Icahn's move on Dell buyout – CT InsiderRichard Florida on the future of cities – Vital City NYC interviewWhat is CRISPR? – Broad InstituteHistory of MS‑DOS – WikipediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you need to hire 1 person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world have the hustle and grit to deliver.  www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader Katie Gatti Tassin is the author of the "Money with Katie" newsletter and podcast, both acquired by Morning Brew in 2022. Katie provides fresh personal finance advice with a unique outlook, coupled with deep, self-taught knowledge.  Before founding Money with Katie in 2020, she worked professionally in marketing and user experience design for Southwest Airlines, Dell Technologies, and Meta. She's the author of Rich Girl Nation: Taking Charge of Our Financial Futures. Notes: If you're not curious about it, you're not going to give it your all. But if you are, you can become relentless. Chase your curiosity and obsessions with great rigor. That passion and love for whatever the thing is can lead to big opportunities in your life. Do you want 100% of a grape or 25% of a watermelon? Advice Katie got when she was considering accepting the offer to be acquired by Morning Brew. The importance of having a coach. Katie talked about the life-changing impact her coach, Elizabeth, has had on her. Ambitious, motivated people who have high standards need help, too. In fact, maybe as much as anyone. It's worth it to invest in yourself and find a person to talk with 1 on 1. Parents - High expectations, straight A's or bust. Driven, hard to turn it off. The Morning Brew acquisition - Money with Katie. Worked at Meta and did Money with Katie at the same time. Left for the acquisition. Austin Rief (CEO) DM'd her on Twitter and made an offer during their first 30-minute conversation. Big lesson - Your IP is everything. Book Dedication - “To the anonymous guy who 'works in finance' that used to relentlessly comment on my nascent website in 2018, urging me to quit writing about money and 'keep it to myself. I hope you're well." Acknowledgments - “Mom, for all those quiet days spent sitting on the floor of the Lents branch library or wandering the stacks at Barnes & Noble. Dad, for spending your time after work at the kitchen table with me every time my homework involved numbers, and for being my number one fan.” How much money do you need to be financially free? Katie breaks down the 4% rule, why it works, and how it can be personalized and optimized for each person's retirement needs. High Standards Can Be a Double-Edged Sword – "I am an incredibly driven person because of the people who raised me... But I also have a really hard time with turning it off. I can become very narrow-minded and obsessive about the things that I'm doing." Turn Critics Into Fuel – Katie dedicated her book to an anonymous finance professional who told her to "quit writing about money" and "keep it to herself." Sometimes the best fuel comes from those who doubt you. Money Transparency in Families Creates Advantages – Katie's parents openly discussed finances, including sharing their income. "I never really thought of it as something that was taboo... made it a lot easier for me now as an adult." The Power of Life Coaching for Entrepreneurs – After initial skepticism, Katie found a life coach who told her, "You are way too in your head. You are way too concerned with the minutia. You don't even know where you wanna go yet." Intellectual Property is Everything in Negotiations – "Your intellectual property is the most valuable thing that you are negotiating over... The primary value of the thing that I'm spending 60 hours a week working on needs to be accruing to me." The 25x Rule for Financial Freedom – Based on the 4% withdrawal rule: "Once you have accumulated 25 times your annual spending... You should theoretically be able to use 4% of that amount every year, withdraw it, and live on it." Marriage Changes Everything Financially – "Marriage is the most legally significant thing you will do in your life other than die, and you don't get so much as a leaflet about how your rights have just changed." Prenups Aren't About Distrust – They're about legal protection, especially for anyone who might leave the workforce. "If you spend decades out of the workforce... You need to ensure that if your partnership ends someday... You will have a certain amount of income." Desire Drives Excellence – "If you're not curious about it, you are not going to give it your all... There is such a difference in outcomes. If I am really into something that I'm working on, it's gonna be second to none."

How does tickling work? You can't tickle yourself. But if you are the ticklish type, you'll start laughing if you know someone is about to tickle you even though they haven't touched you yet. This episode begins with the weird ways tickling works. http://www.livescience.com/3882-tickle.html You know what is interesting about our 7-day week? It is totally artificial. In other words, the other ways we measure time - such as days, hours, months and years – those are based on the sun, the moon, the rotation of the earth and other things – but the week is just made up. Still, it seems to work very well. Imagine life without the week. Keeping a schedule would be extremely difficult. Here to discuss where the 7-day week came from and why it is so important is David Henkin, a professor of history at the University of California at Berkley and author of book The Week: A History of the Unnatural Rhythms That Made Us Who We Are (https://amzn.to/3InCDwl) There are a lot of cat lovers in the world. So, how did cats become household pets in the first place? They haven't always been. In fact, having an indoor cat didn't become a normal thing until the 1930s. There is an interesting story here and here to tell it is Jonathan B. Losos an evolutionary biologist at Washington University and author of the book The Cat's Meow: How Cats Evolved from The Savanna to Your Sofa (https://amzn.to/41PpAe1). If you have valuables in your home, where do you put them, so a burglar won't find them? Maybe in the freezer? In the closet? Well, you could but there's a place burglars almost never look.

La compañía se colocó en el mapa en 2024. Si Tesla tiene sus coches eléctricos, si Apple tiene el Iphone, lo que hizo posicionarse delante del resto fue su chip Blackwell. El año pasado fue el año de la Inteligencia Artificial y aquí la pole la lideró NVIDIA. Dentro de todos sus productos, destacó entre ellos este chip, que anunció la compañía a finales de marzo de 2024. Entonces, Jensen Huang, CEO de la empresa, aseguraba que el innovador chip era 30 veces más potente que su tecnología Hopper. NVIDIA hizo de Blackwell su bandera y marcó un antes y después en el desarrollo de la Inteligencia Artificial. Y es que el éxito de NVIDIA se entiende también con las asociaciones que tiene con algunas de las tecnológicas más importantes del mundo: Microsoft, Dell Technologies, Google, Amazon… para todas ellas desarrolla entrenamiento de Inteligencia Artificial. Para Javier Sanz, Fundador y CEO del Grupo ADSLzone, “esto solo puede ser el principio”. Los centros de datos fueron otra de las grandes apuestas de las tecnológicas. Muchas compañías apostaron por ellos, llegando a reabrir centrales nucleares para poder suministrarles energía. Aunque para analizar el éxito de NVIDIA hay que también poner el foco en las alianzas geopolíticas. Primero con Arabia Saudí, donde la tecnológica enviará 18.000 procesadores para IA GB300 Grace Blackwell para los centros de datos del país. Aunque la máxima preocupación de NVIDIA sigue siendo China y los aranceles. Así lo analizaba Jensen Huang en la conferencia de analistas. -HUANG-CHINA 2805 Los aranceles hicieron estragos en las cuentas del gigante tecnológico. El país asiático representó 17 000 millones de dólares de los ingresos de Nvidia durante su último año fiscal, según cifras de Bernstein. Esta es la cifra más baja de la última década. Si vence el problema chino, ¿NVIDIA podría protagonizar un 2025 tan bueno como el año pasado? Aunque la Inteligencia Artificial es ahora lo que marca el rumbo de la tecnológica, no hay que olvidar que la empresa nació con la intención de revolucionar el mundo de los videojuegos. Así consiguió en la década de los 90 desarrollar tarjetas gráficas para compañías como Sega o Microsoft. Sigue siendo un mercado que domina con puño de hierro, teniendo la tarjeta GeForce RTX 4060 como una de las más vendidas de este año.

Is it healthier to be short or tall? Not that you can do much about it – but this episode begins by exploring some interesting health differences between the tall and the short. https://www.bbc.com/news/health-32117018 All of us have had the urge to get revenge on someone for something they did to us. Seeking revenge is a very powerful feeling that many people cannot control. Yet, more often than not, getting revenge is not that satisfying and you often end up regretting it - road rage being the perfect example. James Kimmel, Jr. joins me to help us understand why feelings of revenge are hard to tame and what you can do when you feel revenge to de-escalate the situation. James is a lecturer in psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine, a lawyer, and the founder and co-director of the Yale Collaborative for Motive Control Studies. He is author of a book called The Science of Revenge: Understanding the World's Deadliest Addiction--and How to Overcome It (https://amzn.to/3SPx8v2). Fear of snakes is very common. Lots of people hate them - but the fact is they are fascinating creatures which have adapted to survive everywhere on earth (except one place). There are snakes that lay eggs and snakes who have live births. There are snakes that eat every day and snakes that eat only once a year. And just how dangerous are they? That depends. Listen as I talk with Stephen S. Hall, a science writer whose work has appeared in the New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic Monthly, National Geographic, Wired, Science, and more. He is author of the book Slither: How Nature's Most Maligned Creatures Illuminate Our World (https://amzn.to/44OPyne). People like to put their best foot forward on social media and often they will brag about a promotion or romance or post a photo of their new car or boat. But how is that actually received by the people who see it? Listen as I reveal what people think about this sort of “humble bragging.” https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/05/150512104037.htm PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Dell Technologies has announced Dell AI Factory advancements, including powerful and energy-efficient AI infrastructure, integrated partner ecosystem solutions and professional services to drive simpler and faster AI deployments. Why it matters AI is now essential for businesses, with 75% of organisations saying AI is key to their strategy and 65% successfully moving AI projects into production. However, challenges like data quality, security concerns and high costs can slow progress. The Dell AI Factory approach can be up to 62% more cost effective for inferencing LLMs on- premises than the public cloud and helps organizations securely and easily deploy enterprise AI workloads at any scale. Dell offers the industry's most comprehensive AI portfolio designed for deployments across client devices, data centres, edge locations and clouds. More than 3,000 global customers across industries are accelerating their AI initiatives with the Dell AI Factory. Dell infrastructure advancements help organizations deploy and manage AI at any scale Dell introduces end-to-end AI infrastructure to support everything from edge inferencing on an AI PC to managing massive enterprise AI workloads in the data center. Dell Pro Max AI PC delivers industry's first enterprise-grade discrete NPU in a mobile form factor The Dell Pro Max Plus laptop with Qualcomm AI 100 PC Inference Card is the world's first mobile workstation with an enterprise-grade discrete NPU. It offers fast and secure on-device inferencing at the edge for large AI models typically run in the cloud, such as today's 109-billion- parameter model. The Qualcomm AI 100 PC Inference Card features 32 AI-cores and 64 GB memory, providing power to meet the needs of AI engineers and data scientists deploying large models for edge inferencing. Dell redefines AI cooling with innovations that reduce cooling energy costs by up to 60% The industry-first Dell PowerCool Enclosed Rear Door Heat Exchanger (eRDHx) is a Dell- engineered alternative to standard rear door heat exchangers. Designed to capture 100% of IT heat generated with its self-contained airflow system, the eRDHx can reduce cooling energy costs by up to 60% compared to currently available solutions. With Dell's factory integrated IR7000 racks equipped with future-ready eRDHx technology, organizations can: Significantly cut costs and eliminate reliance on expensive chillers given the eRDHx operates with water temperatures warmer than traditional solutions (between 32 and 36 degrees Celsius). Maximise data center capacity by deploying up to 16% more racks of dense compute, without increasing power consumption. Enable air cooling capacity up to 80 kW per rack for dense AI and HPC deployments. Minimise risk with advanced leak detection, real-time thermal monitoring, and unified management of all rack-level components with the Dell Integrated Rack Controller. Dell PowerEdge servers with AMD GPUs maximize performance and efficiency Dell PowerEdge XE9785 and XE9785L servers will support AMD Instinct MI350 series GPUs, which offer 288 GB of HBM3E memory per GPU and deliver up to 35 times greater inferencing performance. Available in liquid-cooled and air-cooled configurations, the servers will reduce facility cooling energy costs. Dell advancements power efficient and secure AI deployments and workflows Because AI is only as powerful as the data that fuels it, organizations need a platform designed for performance and scalability. The Dell AI Data Platform updates improve access to high quality structured, semi-structured and unstructured data across the AI lifecycle. Dell Project Lightning is the world's fastest parallel file system per new testing, delivering up to two times greater throughput than competing parallel file systems. Project Lightning will accelerate training time for large-scale and complex AI workflows. Dell Data Lakehouse enhancements simplify AI workflows and accelerate use cases - such as recommendation engines, semantic...

Imagine an accounts‑receivable clerk clicking through four different systems just to finish one routine task. Chad Gold sees that bottleneck instantly. Fullstory's newly launched Workforce product maps every mouse‑stroke of such employee journeys, then surfaces friction points so companies can “make them more productive, so they can do even more value‑added things,” Gold tells us.The scene encapsulates the finance leader's thesis: data depth wins. “The companies that have the capabilities to capture the most comprehensive sets of data in a meaningful way are going to win,” he says. That conviction drew Gold—now in his fourth CFO chapter—to the Atlanta‑based behavioral‑data platform. Fullstory records the complete digital experience of each customer, from e‑commerce clicks to SaaS workflows, and feeds the corpus into AI models that flag churn risk or recommend instant actions, such as sending a coupon to a wavering shopper. The result drives revenue and reduces churn, he tells us.For its part, Fullstory has raised capital rounds through Series D and counts Kleiner Perkins, Stripes, Premier, Salesforce Ventures, GV and Dell Technologies among its backers, he tells us. Independent directors Ryan Barreto of Sprout Social and former Atlassian CFO Alex Estevez deepen the bench. After 22 years in finance, Gold values “lines, not dots”—long‑term relationships that provide partnership, not just cash. By pairing that philosophy with a platform built to illuminate every click, he aims to turn invisible friction—whether customer or employee—into the next chapter of growth. Stakeholders across the business will feel the lift, Gold predicts.

Do happy couples have more sex or does having more sex make couples happy? This episode begins with some surprising insight into that question. https://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2015/may/more-sex-does-not-lead-to-happiness.html There is something about board games. Chess, checkers, backgammon, Monopoly, Parcheesi – we like to play board games. What's fascinating is people all over the world love board games and have for centuries. Why is there this universal appeal? What do these games do for us? Here to offer up the answers and explanations is Tim Clare, an award winning writer and author of the book Across the Board: How Games Make Us Human (https://amzn.to/4kmAZvo). Everyone knows exercise is important. Still, a lot of people shy away from it. What is it that turns some people off while other people truly enjoy it? Is there a way to motivate people to exercise more beyond just telling them, “Exercise is good for you”? Can people who hate exercise learn to love it? How much exercise is enough to make a difference? Here to explore all of this is Katy Bowman who is the author of 11 books and a frequent speaker on the topic of movement and exercise. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Guardian, and Good Housekeeping and she has been on The Joe Rogan Experience, The Today Show and now she is here. Her latest book is I Know I Should Exercise, But...: 44 Reasons We Don't Move and How to Get Over Them (https://amzn.to/4dmWdHs). Do you have a calling? A passion?

People prefer to pay for things with plastic more than cash today. While it is convenient, it creates a problem that is likely costing you quite a bit of money. This episode begins by explaining the problem and how to solve it. https://www.forbes.com/advisor/business/software/people-twice-likely-spend-using-card-than-cash/ So many English words are pronounced nothing like they are spelled. Cough, salmon, laugh, doubt, and calf are just a few examples and I am sure you can come up with more. Why is this? Why can't the spelling of words match the pronunciation? Well, that's an interesting question with multiple answers. It's not that people haven't tried to fix this problem. Joining me to explain why English spelling is so bizarre is Gabe Henry who is author of the book, Enough Is Enuf: Our Failed Attempts to Make English Easier to Spell (https://amzn.to/3GP36VT) It's mind boggling to think about the infrastructure of a city - all the systems that must work for that city to function. There is water, waste, electricity, transportation, communications and more. How does it all work? Here with some insight is Sybil Derrible, a professor of urban engineering and director of the Complex and Sustainable Urban Networks Laboratory at the University of Illinois Chicago. He is author of the book, The Infrastructure Book: How Cities Work and Power Our Lives (https://amzn.to/3Fb6utx). There is a stigma about doing things alone.

The PC has been one of the most important personal devices of our lifetime. From the use of standalone PCs for word processing in the 1980s to the emergence of the World Wide Web and powerful processors in the 1990s to the rise of laptops in the 2000s and the era of 2-in-1s in the 2010s, the PC has continually evolved.Now AI is transforming the PC as we know it. AI-powered devices are helping to automate repetitive tasks, summarise documents and meetings, make adjustments to user behaviours and are enabling everyone to become content creators. New AI devices have updated components inside—the NPU, CPU, and GPU—which means they can handle workloads far more efficiently, allowing the user to have a smooth, engaging, collaborative experience and be productive at the same time.Ronan recently caught up with Tara Gale, Client Solutions Country Lead at Dell Technologies Ireland to find out more about how AI will redefine the PC and personal devices that we all now rely upon.

President Donald Trump met on Monday with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele. Trump 's top advisers and Bukele said they had no basis for the small Central American nation to return a Maryland man who was wrongly deported there last month. “The question is preposterous,” Bukele said. “I don't have the power to return him to the United States.”Global technology stocks rose on Monday after the United States exempted electronics such as smartphones and computer hardware from its steep reciprocal tariffs on China, offering relief to a sector battered by supply-chain uncertainty. Apple shares were up 5.5 percent in U.S. premarket trading. Other consumer product companies, including computer hardware makers HP and Dell Technologies, surged 6 percent and 6.8 percent, respectively, while chip giant Nvidia was up 1.8 percent as part of a broad-based recovery in semiconductor stocks.

What do you get when you mix one of the most iconic sporting events in the world with a masterclass in branding and personal storytelling? Episode 36 of Brand Slam. There are iconic brands—and then there's The Masters. In Episode 36 of the Brand Slam podcast, co-hosts Joe Kayata and (add)ventures President Mary Sadlier sit down with pro golfer Billy Andrade to talk about the power of The Masters brand and how it connects to the evolution of personal partnerships in sports marketing, Billy offers offers a unique perspective on what makes certain brands stick, both on and off the course. With only 96 players qualifying in 2025, The Masters is one of the most exclusive events in golf. But its prestige isn't just about who's on the leaderboard—it's about the experience. From the no-cell-phone policy to the limited-run merchandise that can only be purchased on-site, every detail is intentional. It's a place where tradition reigns, branding is subtle yet powerful and the patrons are treated to an atmosphere that feels more like a once-in-a-lifetime moment than a typical sporting event. Billy shares incredible stories from his decades-long career in professional golf, including his first time stepping onto Augusta National as an amateur—an unforgettable moment made even more surreal by playing alongside legends Arnold Palmer and playing a practice round with Jack Nicklaus. The conversation also touches on one of his most memorable career milestones: being the first player to win a PGA Tour event using the now-legendary Titleist Pro V1 golf ball. Throughout the episode, Billy reflects on how relationships have shaped his journey both on and off the course. For him, brand partnerships have always been rooted in personal connections. Whether it's Skechers, Dell Technologies or with Major League Baseball, he believes that strong brand relationships start with shared values and mutual respect. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in how authenticity, storytelling, and tradition can create lasting brand impact—on the green and beyond.

We know that smiling is a universal human expression of happiness. Everyone smiles - in fact, even babies born blind smile. What is the purpose of smiling? So, what does smiling do for you? Why are we attracted to a person's smile? Listen as I begin this episode with a brief look at smiling. https://www.livescience.com/5254-smiles-innate-learned.html We have all kinds of rituals. There are religious rituals, family rituals, holidays rituals, personal rituals – rituals are everywhere. By definition, rituals don't actually do anything really. They are just rituals. So why do we have them at all? It appears we have them because they are important and necessary according to my guest, Dimitris Xygalatas. He is an anthropologist and cognitive scientist who runs the Experimental Anthropology Lab at the University of Connecticut. He is also author of the book Ritual: How Seemingly Senseless Acts Make Life Worth Living (https://amzn.to/3Pq7U4b). We all know exercise is important for our health. Still, a lot of people hate it. Why is something so vital to human health so despised and avoided by so many? Maybe we never really evolved to exercise – at least not the way exercise is done today. This is according to Daniel E. Lieberman. Daniel is a professor of biological sciences and a professor of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University. He is also the author of the book Exercised: Why Something We Never Evolved to Do Is Healthy and Rewarding (https://amzn.to/3hoPQea). Listen and you'll never again feel guilty the next time you decide you really DON'T want to go out and exercise. Salt is bad for your blood pressure – that is common knowledge. But is it true?
