Devět let trvalo, než se Evropská unie a Indonésie propracovaly k podpisu vzájemné obchodní dohody. Vnitroevropská bezcelní oblast se tak rozšířila o další území, obývané čtvrtým nejlidnatějším národem na světě. Doba, kterou zabralo vyjednávání o dohodě, proti dvacetileté době, během které trvalo uzavřít podobnou dohodu s jihoamerickými státy, sdruženým pod názvem Mercosur, byla zázračně krátká.
For episode 611 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Tim Lewis, Co-founder of tea.xyz.Tea Protocol's CoinList token launch comes at a pivotal moment as critical open-source infrastructure faces a funding crisis. With Shipyard ceasing support for libp2p, the networking backbone powering Ethereum, IPFS, and $100B+ worth of blockchain networks, on September 30th due to resource constraints, Tea.xyz's blockchain-based solution for compensating open-source maintainers has never been more relevant. Founded by Homebrew creator Max Howell, Tea represents the convergence of crisis and solution, demonstrating how crypto can finally solve real infrastructure problems rather than fueling speculation. ⏳ Timestamps: (0:00) Introduction(1:17) Who is Tim Lewis?(6:10) What is Tea Protocol?(10:36) Solutions for open source software development(18:45) Dev incentivization & contributors(20:52) Tea Token Sale(22:47) Tea roadmap(26:12) Events & Conferences(27:25) Tea website, socials & community

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Michael #1: PostgreSQL 18 Released PostgreSQL 18 is out (Sep 25, 2025) with a focus on faster text handling, async I/O, and easier upgrades. New async I/O subsystem speeds sequential scans, bitmap heap scans, and vacuum by issuing concurrent reads instead of blocking on each request. Major-version upgrades are smoother: pg_upgrade retains planner stats, adds parallel checks via -jobs, and supports faster cutovers with -swap. Smarter query performance lands with skip scans on multicolumn B-tree indexes, better OR optimization, incremental-sort merge joins, and parallel GIN index builds. Dev quality-of-life: virtual generated columns enabled by default, a uuidv7() generator for time-ordered IDs, and RETURNING can expose both OLD and NEW. Security gets an upgrade with native OAuth 2.0 authentication; MD5 password auth is deprecated and TLS controls expand. Text operations get a boost via the new PG_UNICODE_FAST collation, faster upper/lower, a casefold() helper, and clearer collation behavior for LIKE/FTS. Brian #2: Testing is better than DSA (Data Structures and Algorithms) Ned Batchelder If you need to grind through DSA problems to get your first job, then of course, do that, but if you want to prepare yourself for a career, and also stand out in job interviews, learn how to write tests. Testing is a skill you'll use constantly, will make you stand out in job interviews, and isn't taught well in school (usually). Testing code well is not obvious. It's a puzzle and a problem to solve. It gives you confidence and helps you write better code. Applies everywhere, at all levels. Notes from Brian Most devs suck at testing, so being good at it helps you stand out very quickly. Thinking about a system and how to test it often very quickly shines a spotlight on problem areas, parts with not enough specification, and fuzzy requirements. This is a good thing, and bringing up these topics helps you to become a super valuable team member. High level tests need to be understood by key engineers on a project. Even if tons of the code is AI generated. Even if many of the tests are, the people understanding the requirements and the high level tests are quite valuable. Michael #3: Pyrefly in Cursor/PyCharm/VSCode/etc Install the VSCode/Cursor extension or PyCharm plugin, see https://pyrefly.org/en/docs/IDE/ Brian spoke about Pyrefly in #433: Dev in the Arena I've subsequently had the team on Talk Python: #523: Pyrefly: Fast, IDE-friendly typing for Python (podcast version coming in a few weeks, see video for now.) My experience has been Pyrefly changes the feel of the editor, give it a try. But disable the regular language server extension. Brian #4: Playwright & pytest techniques that bring me joy Tim Shilling “I've been working with playwright more often to do end to end tests. As a project grows to do more with HTMX and Alpine in the markup, there's less unit and integration test coverage and a greater need for end to end tests.” Tim covers some cool E2E techniques Open new pages / tabs to be tested Using a pytest marker to identify playwright tests Using a pytest marker in place of fixtures Using page.pause() and Playwright's debugging tool Using assert_axe_violations to prevent accessibility regressions Using page.expect_response() to confirm a background request occurred From Brian Again, with more and more lower level code being generated, and many unit tests being generated (shakes head in sadness), there's an increased need for high level tests. Don't forget API tests, obviously, but if there's a web interface, it's gotta be tested. Especially if the primary user experience is the web interface, building your Playwright testing chops helps you stand out and let's you test a whole lot of your system with not very many tests. Extras Brian: Big O - By Sam Who Yes, take Ned's advice and don't focus so much on DSA, focus also on learning to test. However, one topic you should be comfortable with in algortithm-land is Big O, at least enough to have a gut feel for it. And this article is really good enough for most people. Great graphics, demos, visuals. As usual, great content from Sam Who, and a must read for all serious devs. Python 3.14.0rc3 has been available since Sept 18. Python 3.14.0 final scheduled for Oct 7 Django 6.0 alpha 1 released Django 6.0 final scheduled for Dec 3 Python Test Static hosting update Some interesting discussions around setting up my own server, but this seems like it might be yak shaving procrastination research when I really should be writing or coding. So I'm holding off until I get some writing projects and a couple SaaS projects further along. Joke: Always be backing up

Stāsta UNESCO Latvijas Nacionālās komisijas Kultūras sektora vadītāja Beāte Lielmane. No 13. līdz 19. oktobrim Latvijā atzīmēsim ikgadējo UNESCO nedēļu. Tā mums atgādina, ka jau vairāk nekā trīsdesmit gadus esam daļa no šīs starptautiskās organizācijas, kas visā pasaulē rūpējas par izglītību, zinātni un kultūru. Šogad nedēļas uzmanības centrā būs dokumentārais mantojums un UNESCO programma “Pasaules atmiņa”. Tās mērķis ir saglabāt mūsu kolektīvo atmiņu un nodot to nākamajām paaudzēm. Daudzi no jums zina par UNESCO Pasaules mantojuma vietām – piemēram, Tadžmahalu, Versaļas pili vai mūsu pašu Rīgas vēsturisko centru. Daži noteikti ir dzirdējuši arī par nemateriālā kultūras mantojuma sarakstiem, kurā iekļauta Dziesmu un deju svētku tradīcija. Taču reti kurš zinās, ka savs nozīmīgāko vērtību saraksts ir arī dokumentārajam mantojumam. Tajā iekļautas liecības, ko cilvēce pierakstījusi vai citādi iemūžinājusi grāmatās, vēstulēs, rokrakstos, fotogrāfijās, skaņu ierakstos, filmās, pat zvanos un zīlēšanas kaulos. Pasaules atmiņas izveide diemžēl cieši saistās ar kara radīto postu. 1992. gadā Sarajevas bombardēšanā tika iznīcināta Nacionālā bibliotēka ar simtiem gadu laikā uzkrātu zināšanu bagātību. Pēc tā UNESCO nolēma: cilvēces kopīgā atmiņa ir jāsargā. Un jau 1995. gadā tika izveidots starptautiskais Pasaules atmiņas reģistrs, kurā šobrīd ir 570 unikālas liecības no visas pasaules. Kādas liecības reģistrā ir atrodamas? Bēthovena Devītās simfonijas manuskripts un Astrīdas Lindgrēnas arhīvs, Čornobiļas atomelektrostacijas katastrofas dokumenti un Austroungārijas telegramma, kas aizsāka Pirmo pasaules karu. Pasaules Veselības organizācijas programma baku izkaušanai, Annas Frankas dienasgrāmata, Amundsena Dienvidpola ekspedīcijas materiāli un Īzaka Ņūtona rokraksti. Šīs un citas liecības stāsta gan par notikumiem, kas izmainīja vēstures gaitu, gan zinātnes atklājumiem, gan par izcilu personību radošo devumu un cilvēka gara diženākajiem sasniegumiem. Arī Latvijas vēstures un identitātes aspekti ir ierakstīti šajā kopīgajā cilvēces atmiņā: Dainu skapis, kurā glabājas vairāk nekā 200 000 tautasdziesmu tekstu, Baltijas ceļš, kas vienoja Baltijas valstis vienotiem centieniem pēc brīvības, dokumenti par Hanzas vēsturi, kas raksturo visa Baltijas jūras reģiona vēsturi, un Ļubļinas ūnijas akts, kas, lai gan glabājās Polijā, tomēr, ir svarīga liecība arī mūsu vēsturē. Lai arī Latvijas arhīvos, bibliotēkās, muzejos un citās atmiņas institūcijās meklētu, atrastu un izceltu izcilākās dokumentārās vērtības 2009. gadā tika izveidots “Pasaules atmiņas” Latvijas nacionālais reģistrs. Šobrīd tajā ir iekļautas 10 nominācijas, kuru iepazīšana ir kā ceļojums laikā. Strenču fotodarbnīcas stikla plašu kolekcijā redzam, kāda pirms simts gadiem bija mazpilsētas ikdiena. Eduarda Krauca stikla negatīvos soli pa solim izsekojam Ķeguma spēkstacijas celtniecības gaitām. Pieminekļu valdes ekspedīciju fotogrāfijās varam ieraudzīt prasmes un dzīvesveidu, kas mūsdienās gandrīz izzudis. Fonogrāfa valču ierakstos saklausām latviešu tautas mūzikas skanējumu no pagājušā gadsimta sākuma. Rīgas rātes protokolu grāmatas paver vēstures lappuses Latvijas galvaspilsētas attīstības iepazīšanai gandrīz triju gadsimtu garumā. Nozīmīgs pavadonis šajā pagātnes izpētes ceļā ir arī Johans Kristofs Broce, kura rūpīgajos zīmējumos un rokrakstos iemūžināta Latvijas teritorijas vēsture no 13. līdz 19. gadsimtam. Tāpat Latvijas nacionālajā reģistrā tiek sargāti mūsu literārie un garīgie dārgumi: Raiņa un Aspazijas vēstules vairāk nekā 30 gadu garumā, Hernhūtiešu rokraksti, kas apliecina latviešu identitātes dzimšanu, un Sibīrijā rakstītās vēstules uz bērza tāss, kas atklāj cilvēka spēju saglabāt cerību pat vissmagākajos apstākļos. Tāpat reģistrā glabājas arī Latvijas Centrālās Padomes 1944. gada 17. marta memorands – apliecinājums mūsu gribai pēc neatkarīgas valsts. Šogad notiks Latvijas Nacionālā reģistra papildināšana, un pavisam drīz uzzināsim, kādas jaunas vērtības to bagātinās. UNESCO programma “Pasaules atmiņa” mums atgādina, ka dokumentārais mantojums nav tikai papīru kopums arhīvā. Tie ir dzīvi stāsti, kas tver pagātnes liecības, veido mūsu kopīgo identitāti, un ir nozīmīgi saglabāšanai nākotnē.

What happens when one of Google's top AI strategists also happens to be a yogi, author, and self-described “Happy Human”?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists' Summer Series, hosts Timothy Henry and Dev Patnaik speak with Gopi Kallayil, Chief Business Strategist for AI at Google. Together, they explore how businesses can navigate radical uncertainty in an age of exponential technological disruption and why AI should be seen as a tool for human advancement rather than a threat.From Google's pivots (“search-first” to “mobile-first” to “AI-first”) to lessons on experimentation, failure, and 10x thinking, Gopi pulls back the curtain on how the tech giant adapts in the face of constant change. He also offers a deeply human perspective: blending insights from his books The Happy Human and The Internet to the Inner-Net, his yoga practice, and his spiritual explorations of what he calls AI, NI (natural intelligence), and DI (divine intelligence).This conversation isn't just about artificial intelligence - it's about what it means to stay human, conscious, and purpose-driven while riding the waves of disruption.Listeners will gain insights into:Why moments of disruption are opportunities for nonlinear breakthroughsHow Google cultivates a culture of experimentation, iteration, and failing wellThe importance of 10x thinking over incremental improvementsWhy companies should start with business strategy - not an “AI strategy”How AI is already transforming industries like healthcare, retail, and entertainmentWhat AI, natural intelligence, and divine intelligence can teach us about consciousnessPractical steps leaders can take to embrace uncertainty and future-proof their organizationsWhether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, or simply curious about the intersection of AI and consciousness, this episode offers both strategic guidance and soulful wisdom.**If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

Dev Hynes has felt like an outsider since he was a kid. But as a singer-songwriter and producer, he's been able to transform that sense of otherness into some of the most acclaimed and interesting music of the last decade. For the last few years, Dev questioned if he would ever return to his solo project Blood Orange, but after losing his mom, he was called back to it. Now, he's released his fifth album as Blood Orange, “Essex Honey.” Dev joins Tom Power to talk about his journey and how being an outsider has not only shaped his own music, but also the sound of some of the biggest artists in the world.
To the point of what about giving up one's home, going to the forest, and fasting most of the time? The answer is the process of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa Mahāmantra doesn't require these. And the answer is in Prabhupāda's letter, where he uses the phrase "forced meditation." Force means power, and "forced" means pushed by a power greater than oneself. The chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa is infused with Kṛṣṇa's unlimited powers. What's more, when chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa with attention, Kṛṣṇa, the all-powerful, pushes us along. Consider how when someone forces us to do something, that person is more powerful than we are. When someone forces us to do something, we are not doing it voluntarily. For example, a mother may force her child to go to school. Consider the phrase, "Clyde's mother forced him to go to his first day of school, as he was at first unwilling." Clyde's mother, in this sense, is more powerful than Clyde, and she makes him go to school for his own good. When we chant the mahāmantra, we invite Kṛṣṇa to push us forward on the spiritual path, even if we are unwilling. Those who chant japa avail themselves of Kṛṣṇa's power. The Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is a prayer requesting The Lord to engage us in His spiritual service. Getting out of the material world, the world regulated by Māyā Devī, is not easy. We are stuck, not just in her orbit, but we are imprisoned in her world. Devī-dhām—a place of torture—that is impossible to escape. Who will intervene on our behalf? Who will save us? Kṛṣṇa will. But more precisely, Kṛṣṇa's names have appeared as our liberator. Our chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, therefore, is our cry for Kṛṣṇa's help, recognizing that he is not only more powerful than we are but he is also the master of Māyā Devī. What's more, he knows better than we what is good for us. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
