Distributed manufacturing allows goods to be produced closer to where they're needed — but enabling that future requires a complete rethink of infrastructure, systems, and workforce development.In this episode of The TechEd Podcast, Dr. Charles Johnson-Bey joins host Matt Kirchner for a deep dive into Engineering the Future of Distributed Manufacturing — the new national report from the Engineering Research Visioning Alliance (ERVA). Charles, a former professor and recently retired Senior Vice President at Booz Allen Hamilton, brings decades of experience in defense, systems engineering, and academia to this conversation.Together, they break down ERVA's five priority areas for enabling distributed manufacturing: modular and reconfigurable infrastructure, digital design tools, edge-to-cloud data systems, workforce education, and new performance metrics. Charles also shares how these priorities came from input across industry, academia, and government — and how they'll guide research, funding, and education in the years ahead.Listen to learn: What distributed manufacturing actually looks like in practice — and why it matters nowWhy “digital twins + AI” are critical for linking design, production, and data-driven decision-makingThe essential role of public infrastructure in enabling connectivity and access for all communitiesWhy proximity to advanced tools like a digital twin or a cyber-physical testbed is essential for scaling distributed manufacturing3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Distributed manufacturing is a modular approach to resilient, tech-enabled production. Charles defines distributed manufacturing as a system where production assets can be easily moved, reconfigured, and localized closer to the point of need. He describes how smaller, agile, and digitally connected systems—like reconfigurable machines and regional testbeds—enable manufacturing to respond to disruptions, like the ones exposed during COVID-19.2. The workforce of the future needs digital fluency—and systems thinking. Students must be prepared not only to operate new technologies, but to understand how those technologies interact within broader systems. Charles highlights the importance of human-machine teaming, digital twins, and cyber-physical testbeds, and calls for education that helps learners “fall in love with the rigor” of complex technical work.3. America's manufacturing strategy must include small and mid-sized firms. Charles points out that most manufacturers in the U.S. are small to mid-sized, yet lack access to advanced infrastructure and scalable tools. He argues that national strategies must focus on democratizing technology—making AI, automation, and data systems affordable and available to all levels of the manufacturing sector.Resources in this Episode:Read the ERVA Report: Engineering the Future of Distributed ManufacturingLearn more about ERVAFollow Charles on LinkedInVisit the episode page for more!We want to hear from you!

This special episode of The Mob Mentality Show is a cross-post from Tuple's podcast/videocast Distributed, where Chris and Austin join host Jack Hannah for an in-depth conversation about mob programming, agile leadership, and the evolving role of AI in software development. Originally recorded for Distributed, this discussion brings a fresh outside perspective to topics Chris and Austin have explored in over 300 episodes of The Mob Mentality Show—but here, they dive even deeper into the origins of mob programming, how it spread across the organization, and what it takes to protect team culture while scaling. Listeners will hear stories about early experiments—like rearranging office spaces to make pairing/mobbing possible—navigating challenging product owner relationships, and using “cellular division” to grow teams without losing their collaborative spirit. The conversation also covers AI in social coding, from generating code in domain-specific languages to treating AI as another member of the mob, plus honest thoughts on whether AI could ever replace pair or mob programming. Key Topics in This Cross-Post Episode: How one team's mob programming experiment became an org-wide practice Lessons from creating and sustaining 300+ agile/XP episodes Office and workflow changes that enable collaboration at scale Maintaining team culture through growth and change Where AI fits (and doesn't) in mob and pair programming Practical advice for teams without internal XP mentors The future of AI in collaborative software development If you're interested in agile leadership, developer experience, extreme programming, or the human side of software engineering, you'll get proven strategies you can apply immediately—plus inspiration from seeing how practices spread beyond their starting point.

This week, Clint Leavitt returns from paternity leave, bringing with him fascinating observations about the fifth commandment, 'Honor your father and mother.' He invites us to dive deep into the heart of family relationships and their profound impact on our spiritual lives. The message challenges us to see honor not as a mere greeting card sentiment, but as a transformative force that shapes individuals and entire societies. We're reminded that honoring our parents isn't just about obedience, but about recognizing their inherent value and allowing that recognition to guide our actions. This commandment, found in Exodus 20:12, is presented as a pathway to personal and societal flourishing. The parallels drawn between our earthly parents and our Heavenly Father are particularly striking, encouraging us to view our family relationships as a reflection of God's covenant love. As we grapple with the complexities of honoring imperfect parents, we're called to a higher understanding of grace, forgiveness, and the unconditional love that can heal even the deepest wounds.

The Red Dirt Agronomy Podcast team traveled to Wichita for High Plains Journal Live, where they sat down with Dr. Shannon Ferrell of Oklahoma State University. In this lively conversation, Dr. Ferrell dives deep into the realities of farm succession planning, from the traditional “farm kid vs. city kid” dilemma to the increasingly common “no heirs returning” challenge. He explains how recent legislative changes in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” affect payment limits for LLCs, estate tax exemptions, and spousal portability—critical details for farm families planning their future.The discussion also turns toward energy, with a look at the booming solar industry, the economics of battery storage, and what the phase-out of renewable tax credits might mean for rural Oklahoma. Dr. Ferrell offers a bold proposal for modernizing transmission easement compensation, encouraging landowner participation in much-needed infrastructure projects. Whether you're thinking about passing down your farm or eyeing new opportunities in renewable energy, this episode is packed with insights you can use.Key TakeawaysFarm transition planning is shifting from farm kid vs. city kid challenges to situations where no heirs return to the operation.LLCs can now receive combined payment limits for partners, removing a barrier to certain succession structures.Estate tax exemption rises to $15M per individual in 2026, with spousal portability ensuring up to $30M passes tax-free.Gift tax exclusions allow $19,000 per person annually without impacting the unified credit.Renewable energy development in Oklahoma remains strong despite upcoming tax credit phase-outs.Solar power costs have plummeted globally, with innovative uses emerging.Battery storage is now economically viable, making renewable power dispatchable.Phase-out of federal tax credits may alter investment patterns but likely won't halt projects.Transmission easement models may need modernization to include ongoing revenue for landowners.Distributed generation could reduce long-distance transmission needs, but grid resilience still requires infrastructure expansion.Timestamps00:00 – Live from High Plains Journal Live in Wichita, KS02:00 – Introducing the Dream Team of Dirt03:15 – Dr. Shannon Ferrell's summer speaking tour highlights04:39 – Farm succession planning: Farm kid vs. city kid dilemma06:32 – No heirs returning: options for farm asset transitions08:14 – “One Big Beautiful Bill” and changes to payment limits for LLCs09:14 – Estate tax updates and spousal portability explained13:49 – Gift tax rules and unified credit in farm succession15:15 – Tax provisions that impact transition planning15:46 – Renewable energy development: wind, solar, and batteries18:08 – Phase-out of renewable energy tax credits and industry impacts20:36 – Battery storage economics and dispatchable power22:15 – Tariffs, supply chains, and domestic manufacturing for energy tech25:18 – Transmission easements and incentivizing landowners27:38 – Distributed generation and grid resilience28:21 – Wrapping up the Summer Ferrell Tour RedDirtAgronomy.com

Crazy Wisdom Key Takeaways FarmBot is a robotic farmer for your garden, designed to take care of your garden by performing functions such as planting seeds, watering, weeding, and monitoringSimply being open source is not enough. For a project to be genuinely useful, it must also have extensive, clear documentation and use open, affordable file formatsToday, the vast majority of food that people eat is grown very far away and in ways that is not great for the food or environment We have very little control over the food production system, which is vital to our existence Let us get back to the smaller scale, more diverse polycrop system of food production; many follow-on benefits will result Building a resilient alternative to industrial food systems (which often rely on single-crop farming) reduces single points of failure along vulnerable supply chains The more that we can distribute the food system and bring it closer to the end-eater, the more robust our overall food system becomes Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgOn this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop speaks with Rory Aronson, CEO of FarmBot, about how his open-source hardware project is transforming home gardening into a more automated and accessible practice.

On July 4th, searchers from Buscadoras por la Paz Sonora made a devastating discovery near Highway 36 in Sonora, Mexico—three little girls found murdered, dressed in pajamas, holding one another. A day earlier, their mother's body had been found nearby, executed and discarded.In this episode, we uncover the chilling timeline of betrayal and violence that led to the femicide of 28-year-old Margarita Tapia Trujillo and her daughters—11-year-old twins Meredith and Medellín, and 9-year-old Karla. The perpetrator wasn't a stranger. He was someone they trusted. Someone who used love, protection, and even life insurance as tools of manipulation and control. We also hear from the girls' father, the collective that found them, and the growing community fighting to call this violence what it is: femicide. This is the femicide of Margarita, Meredith, Medellín, and Karla Tapia Trujillo.Now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms.—-El 4 de julio, integrantes del colectivo Buscadoras por la Paz Sonora hicieron un hallazgo devastador cerca de la Carretera 36 en Sonora, México: tres niñas pequeñas asesinadas, vestidas con pijamas y abrazadas entre sí. Un día antes, el cuerpo de su madre había sido encontrado cerca, ejecutado y abandonado. En este episodio, revelamos la escalofriante línea de tiempo de traición y violencia que llevó al feminicidio de Margarita Tapia Trujillo, de 28 años, y sus hijas—las gemelas Meredith y Medellín, de 11 años, y Karla, de 9 años. El responsable no era un desconocido. Era alguien de confianza. Alguien que usó el amor, la protección, e incluso un seguro de vida como armas de manipulación y control. Escuchamos también al padre de las niñas, al colectivo que las encontró y a la comunidad que exige justicia, nombrando esta violencia por lo que realmente es: feminicidio.

In this episode of Elixir Wizards, Charles Suggs sits down with Chris Grainger, co-founder and CTO of Amplified and creator of the Explorer library. Chris explains how Explorer brings the familiar data-frame workflows of R's dplyr and Python's pandas into the Elixir world. We explore (pun intended!) how Explorer integrates with Ecto, Nx, and LiveView to build end-to-end data pipelines without leaving the BEAM, and how features like lazy evaluation and distributed frames let you tackle large datasets. Whether you're generating reports or driving interactive charts in LiveView, Explorer makes tabular data accessible to every Elixir developer. We wrap up by looking ahead to SQL-style backends, ADBC connectivity, and other features on the Explorer roadmap. Key topics discussed in this episode: dplyr- and pandas-inspired data manipulation in Elixir Polars integration via Rust NIFs for blazing performance Immutable data frames and BEAM-friendly concurrency Lazy evaluation to work with arbitrarily large tables Distributed data-frame support for multi-node processing Seamless integration with Ecto schemas and queries Zero-copy interoperability between Explorer and Nx tensors Apache Arrow and ADBC protocols for cross-language I/O Exploring SQL-style backends for remote query execution Building interactive dashboards and charts in LiveView Consolidating ETL workflows into a single Elixir API Streaming data pipelines for memory-efficient processing Tidy data principles and behavior-based API design Real-world use cases: report generation, patent analysis, and more Future roadmap: new backends, query optimizations, and community plugins Links mentioned: https://hexdocs.pm/explorer/Explorer.html https://www.amplified.ai/ https://www.r-project.org/ https://vita.had.co.nz/papers/tidy-data.pdf https://www.tidyverse.org/ https://www.python.org/ https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/ https://go.dev/ https://hexdocs.pm/nx/Nx.html https://github.com/pola-rs/polars https://github.com/rusterlium/rustler https://www.rust-lang.org/ https://www.postgresql.org/ https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html https://www.elastic.co/elasticsearch https://arrow.apache.org/ Chris Grainger & Chris McCord Keynote ElixirConf 2024: https://youtu.be/4qoHPh0obv0 https://dbplyr.tidyverse.org/ https://spark.posit.co/ https://hexdocs.pm/pythonx/Pythonx.html https://hexdocs.pm/vegalite/VegaLite.html 10 Minutes to Explorer: https://hexdocs.pm/explorer/exploringexplorer.html https://github.com/elixir-nx/scholar https://scikit-learn.org/stable/ https://github.com/cigrainger https://erlef.org/slack-invite/erlef https://bsky.app/profile/cigrainger.bsky.social https://github.com/cigrainger

Colab is cozy. But production won't fit on a single GPU. Zach Mueller leads Accelerate at Hugging Face and spends his days helping people go from solo scripts to scalable systems. In this episode, he joins me to demystify distributed training and inference — not just for research labs, but for any ML engineer trying to ship real software. We talk through: • From Colab to clusters: why scaling isn't just about training massive models, but serving agents, handling load, and speeding up iteration • Zero-to-two GPUs: how to get started without Kubernetes, Slurm, or a PhD in networking • Scaling tradeoffs: when to care about interconnects, which infra bottlenecks actually matter, and how to avoid chasing performance ghosts • The GPU middle class: strategies for training and serving on a shoestring, with just a few cards or modest credits • Local experiments, global impact: why learning distributed systems—even just a little—can set you apart as an engineer If you've ever stared at a Hugging Face training script and wondered how to run it on something more than your laptop: this one's for you.

For many creative people, music is a central part of life. Count us in that camp. We've long admired Sonos products for their quality and easy integration into our homes, and everything they design is beautiful. The integration of design and technology is often a challenge for companies. From the outside, it would seem that Sonos has something figured out in this department. To learn more about their approach, we spoke with Matt Benatan, Principal Research Scientist, and Naphur van Apeldoorn, Senior Manager, Hardware Development Engineering. We chat with Naphur and Matt about how Sonos decided to invest the time and energy into a new product—Arc Ultra, and what the R&D and prototyping process looked like—as a distributed team, they “share” physical prototypes using a 3d printer. We also talked about how they're using onboard AI for speech enhancement, and why it seems like movie dialogue has become harder to hear over recent years (even if you don't have kids making noise in the background while you're trying to watch

Today we are joined by Selena Larson, Threat Researcher at Proofpoint, and co-host of Only Malware in the Building, as she discusses their work on "Amatera Stealer - Rebranded ACR Stealer With Improved Evasion, Sophistication." Proofpoint researchers have identified Amatera Stealer, a rebranded and actively developed malware-as-a-service (MaaS) variant of the former ACR Stealer, featuring advanced evasion techniques like NTSockets for stealthy C2 communication and WoW64 Syscalls to bypass user-mode defenses. Distributed via ClearFake web injects and the ClickFix technique, Amatera leverages multilayered PowerShell loaders, blockchain-based hosting, and creative social engineering to compromise victims. With enhanced capabilities to steal browser data, crypto wallets, and other sensitive files, Amatera poses a growing threat in the wake of disruptions to competing stealers like Lumma.

Proofpoint researchers have identified Amatera Stealer, a rebranded and actively developed malware-as-a-service (MaaS) variant of the former ACR Stealer, featuring advanced evasion techniques like NTSockets for stealthy C2 communication and WoW64 Syscalls to bypass user-mode defenses. Distributed via ClearFake web injects and the ClickFix technique, Amatera leverages multilayered PowerShell loaders, blockchain-based hosting, and creative social engineering to compromise victims. With enhanced capabilities to steal browser data, crypto wallets, and other sensitive files, Amatera poses a growing threat in the wake of disruptions to competing stealers like Lumma. Complete our annual audience survey before August 31. The research can be found here: Amatera Stealer: Rebranded ACR Stealer With Improved Evasion, Sophistication Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to B The Way Forward Interludes - a series of conversations that don't necessarily fit in our regular season, but are just too good to not share. Dr. Timinit Gebru is one of the leading voices in AI research calling for more responsible and inclusive AI systems. Or, as she puts it - “a technological future that serves our communities instead of one that is used for surveillance, warfare, and the centralization of power by Silicon Valley.” As the Founder and Executive Director of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (DAIR), Timnit isn't just calling out the dangers of Big Tech's approach to AI - she and her colleagues are working to forge new approaches and new ways to imagine what our future can look like. In part 2 of our conversation, Timnit shares why the “Distributed” aspect of DAIR is so important, the kinds of projects they undertake that could never be done within the halls of Big Tech or Academia, and why the current method of designing LLM's flies in the face of core engineering principles. Plus, you all had a lot of questions about AI at our recent Responsible AI Forum by AnitaB.org - and Timnit has some answers for you. --- At AnitaB.org, our mission is to enable and equip women technologists with the tools, resources, and knowledge they need to thrive.

Brian reflects on the importance of being loud as a leader and having the right team when looking to the future.
Clean energy attracts nearly $3 trillion in investment annually, but most of that capital flows to massive utility-scale projects through the world's biggest banks and large-scale asset managers. Meanwhile, smaller distributed projects — rooftop solar, batteries, microgrids — face a structural financing challenge that Amanda Li calls "death by a thousand cuts." As co-founder and COO of Banyan Infrastructure, Li sees this dynamic constantly. Distributed infrastructure developers are trying to secure deals for $500,000 or $1 million, but face the same transaction costs as billion-dollar projects. "You might have a thousand times the amount of data at every single one of those stages, a thousand models, a thousand PDF documents or contracts, a thousand counterparties," Li explains. "So that's where the overhead really becomes crushing." Rachel Halfaker, who leads the community infrastructure program at the Milken Institute, sees the same fragmentation from a different angle. Unlike utility-scale projects with a single counterparty, distributed energy involves "a hundred business owners, a hundred nonprofits, a hundred YMCAs or churches" who aren't accustomed to thinking about term sheets and risk profiles. The solution they are pursuing? Standardization. But previous attempts have failed for specific reasons that go beyond market immaturity. "Everyone intellectually understands and believes in the benefits of coordination and standardization," said Li. But past efforts lacked dedicated coordinators and sufficient critical mass. The complexity of distributed energy finance makes standardization uniquely challenging. These projects often require blended capital stacks where three or more financing sources must align simultaneously. "All three things have to be in coordination in order for that deal to pencil,” said Halfaker. This orchestration typically falls to local developers with small teams, rather than the armies of investment bankers and lawyers that structure utility-scale deals. The result is frequent near-misses where viable projects nearly fall apart due to financing complexity. In this episode, recorded live as part of Latitude Media's Frontier Forum series, Stephen Lacey talks with Li and Halfaker about why standardization is critical for scaling distributed energy into a trillion-dollar asset class. They explore how standardization could eventually enable securitization — the "holy grail" that would create secondary markets for distributed energy assets. This episode was recorded live as part of Latitude Media's Frontier Forum with Banyan Infrastructure. Watch the full video here and download Banyan's white paper on standardization here.
This week, we are joined by Michael Gorelik, Chief Technology Officer from Morphisec, discussing their work on "New Noodlophile Stealer Distributes Via Fake AI Video Generation Platforms." A new threat dubbed Noodlophile Stealer is exploiting the popularity of AI-powered content tools by posing as fake AI video generation platforms, luring users into uploading media in exchange for malware-laced downloads. Distributed through convincing Facebook groups and viral campaigns, the malware steals browser credentials, cryptocurrency wallets, and can deploy a remote access trojan like XWorm. The campaign uses a layered, obfuscated delivery chain disguised as legitimate video editing software, making it both deceptive and difficult to detect.
