In this episode, we look at one of the most puzzling stories of Bayis Shani, the story of Sukkos. The possuk seems to imply that this was the first time they kept Sukkos since Yehoshua. How do we understand this? We also look at the basic dynamics of the times of Moshiach. How does the dynamic between Israel and the other nations change? And similarly we discuss the Ingathering of the Exiles. This week's episode is dedicated לרפואה השלימה לשרה פעשא בת יפה אסתר by her family Nach Yomi: Join R' Wittenstein's Nach Yomi on WhatsApp. We learn a perek a day five days a week, with a nine minute shiur covering the key issues.

W świecie Domain-Driven Design, Agregat jest powszechnie uznawany za jeden z fundamentalnych wzorców odpowiedzialnych za spójność danych. To on wyznacza granicę transakcyjną, wewnątrz której pilnujemy niezmienników biznesowych, gwarantując integralność naszego modelu. Ale co w sytuacji, gdy ta z góry zdefiniowana, statyczna granica staje się pewnym ograniczeniem? Czy w każdym procesie biznesowym potrzebujemy dokładnie tego samego, silnego poziomu spójności i czy sztywny podział na agregaty zawsze idealnie odzwierciedla dynamiczną naturę problemu, który modelujemy?Okazuje się, że możemy podejść do tego zagadnienia w bardziej elastyczny sposób. W tym odcinku, wraz z moim gościem, Pawłem Pacaną z firmy Arkency, dokładnie przyjrzymy się koncepcji Dynamic Consistency Boundary. Porozmawiamy o tym, jak można myśleć o spójności nie jako o statycznej, raz ustalonej granicy, ale jako o koncepcji, która dopasowuje się do kontekstu konkretnej operacji biznesowej.W tym odcinku usłyszysz między innymi o:trudnościach w projektowaniu i długoterminowym utrzymaniu agregatów w systemieDynamic Consistency Boundary i czym ten wzorzec różni się od klasycznego podejścia z agregatemtagowaniu i linkowaniu zdarzeń pomiędzy strumieniamiwymaganiach dla event-store, aby stosowanie Dynamic Consistency Boundary było w ogóle możliwe pułapkach, na które należy zwrócić szczególną uwagę, by wykorzystanie DCB nie stało się problemMateriały dodatkowe do tego odcinka znajdują się na stronie tego odcinka na bettersoftwaredesign.pl.YouTube Alert!

Communion 2025 is open for enrollments, where we show you real life examples of what it takes to live your life from your feminine energy. Learn more at https://infinitedevotion.com/communion2025 In this episode, Andrew speaks directly to women about the truth of feminine energy—and why so many feel exhausted, burnt out, or disconnected from their natural state. He unpacks common misconceptions, exposes the trap of “performative femininity,” and explains why most women today live in an inverted polarity that keeps them stuck in control, obligation, and depletion. You'll learn: • The real definition of feminine energy—why it isn't about softness, slowness, or performance, but about receptivity. • What inverted polarity looks like—the “doing to get” energy that leads to control, burnout, and disconnection. • Why performance isn't femininity—and how real feminine expression includes the full range of emotions, not just softness. • How burnout reveals misalignment—and why women who live from obligation rather than fullness always feel exhausted. • The link between feminine expression and submission—how true surrender and obedience flow naturally when a woman is full, alive, and receptive. • Practical steps to begin shifting—slowing down, practicing discernment, closing the “drain” of over-giving, and cultivating devotion to self. Andrew also shares why his course Communion exists: to guide women out from behind the masculine shield, into their natural feminine expression, and into the freedom of surrender. This episode is for women who long to feel more alive, radiant, and free—and for men who want to truly understand and lead the feminine.
Hebrews 10From the series titled: CommunityPastor John King – September 7, 2025
As we enter the second phase of our September 2025 fasting period, it is essential that the Word of God to reflect key spiritual values and principles relevant to the significance and dynamics of this fasting. Fasting encompasses several important objectives that should be clearly understood by any follower of Christ who practices it. During this season of fasting, we have outlined specific goals and objectives: pursuing mindset mental transformation, seeking spiritual growth and maturity that broadens our perspective, and preparing the Body of Christ prophetically for spiritual challenges in the days ahead.The future is not one that can be engaged through self-help, motivational preaching orientation as seen today. A deeper sense of spiritual quest, identity and readiness must become the gear we wear to advance the prophetic redemptive counsel of heaven for creation. To put our hope, strength and focus on the arm of the flesh will be translated to absolute failure. I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all. Ecclesiastes 9:11 According to First Corinthians, we encounter one of the most critical subjects that must be addressed in the sacred place of fasting: the concept of authentic spiritual development through the manifestation of the fruit of the Spirit.The Corinthian Christians present us with a sobering case study. These believers had become so proficient in operating spiritual gifts that they achieved a dangerous level of spiritual blindness. Paul writes, "I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God, which was given to you by Christ Jesus, that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you. So that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 1:4-7). Yet despite this supernatural giftedness, they remained spiritual infants, as Paul later declares: "And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ" (1 Corinthians 3:1).This paradox reveals a fundamental truth: the operation of spiritual gifts does not automatically qualify one for spiritual maturity. The Corinthians had mistaken gifting for growth, manifestation for maturity. They believed their supernatural abilities indicated readiness for Christ's return, representing the highest form of spiritual delusion. When believers assume that functioning in spiritual gifts qualifies them for spiritual maturity, they fall into the same trap that ensnared the Corinthian church.
The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. This need has led to many different ideas and perspectives on how the modern minuteman should approach specialized platforms and some look to the military for answers. Although the military can offer many valuable insights into fighting methods, the military doctrine and approach to the use of machine guns is very specific. In this episode Stephen and Jacob sit down with Ben Price (a fomer USMC 0331 Machine Gunner) to explain the ways military machine gun tactics differ from small unit auto rifle tactics. These differences are important to highlight because we believe it better informs the overall concept of what platforms best serve the mission of the modern minuteman.

In this episode of The Happily Ever After Divorce Podcast™, Sara Khaki and Shawna Woods unpack the “work wife/work husband” dynamic and its impact on marriage. Using the recent Astronomer CEO scandal as a backdrop, they discuss how workplace relationships can cross emotional and physical lines, create disconnect at home, and even lead to infidelity—and why shared purpose, open communication, and conscious effort are key to keeping relationships strong.
Nelson Repenning and Don Kieffer joined host Jamie Flinchbaugh to discuss their collaborative book "There's Got to Be a Better Way" and their approach to dynamic work design. Nelson Repenning is the School of Management Distinguished Professor at the MIT Sloan School of Management, while Don Kieffer is a senior lecturer in operations management at MIT Sloan and founder of ShiftGear Work Design. Their partnership represents a unique blend of academic rigor and practical factory floor experience spanning nearly three decades. The conversation began with personal connections, as Jamie noted his long history working with Don during transformation efforts at companies like Harley-Davidson, and his experience as one of Nelson's first students in systems dynamics at MIT. Don shared how Jamie helped translate complex manufacturing concepts into accessible language during their work at Harley-Davidson. The guests explained how their five core principles evolved through years of teaching and practical application. Nelson compared their development process to a stand-up comedian perfecting their act, starting with rough material and refining it through constant testing. The five principles they developed are: solve the right problem, structure for discovery, connect the human chain, regulate for flow, and visualize the work. When discussing the challenge of solving the right problem, Nelson referenced Daniel Kahneman's work on conscious versus automatic thinking. He explained how people often revert to automatic processing under pressure, making structured problem-solving methods essential. Don emphasized how experienced problem solvers can jump to solutions too quickly, bypassing the crucial step of properly defining the problem. The principle of structuring for discovery addresses why organizations should welcome more visible problems rather than hiding them. Don explained that problems reveal weaknesses in systems and create opportunities for innovation and stability. Nelson added that instead of helping people understand complex environments, they focus on structuring environments to be cleaner and more manageable. Regarding connecting the human chain, Nelson emphasized that humans excel at processing uncertainty and ambiguity, particularly in face-to-face communication. He criticized how many organizations use long PowerPoint meetings for information sharing while handling uncertainty through digital messages. Don illustrated this with the frustration of call center scripts that cannot handle unique problems, explaining their concept of "huddles" versus "handoffs" in work design. The discussion of visualizing work highlighted the particular challenges of knowledge work. Don explained that unlike manufacturing, where broken equipment is obvious, knowledge work problems remain hidden. People can be continuously interrupted and overloaded without visible signs. Nelson shared a striking example from Harley-Davidson where the average time to solve problems equaled the months remaining until product launch, regardless of when problems were discovered. Don noted that while executives can easily draw organizational charts, they struggle to map how work actually flows through their organizations. The guests emphasized that simple visualization techniques can yield enormous gains in knowledge work because the dysfunction costs are typically hidden and accepted as normal. Throughout the conversation, both guests stressed the importance of leaders staying connected to actual work rather than remaining distant from operational realities. They advocate for methods that make work visible and create structures that support both stability and continuous innovation.

This episode is an edited version of a TikTok live stream that took place on August 31, 2025. In this episode, I address an 18-year-old who is feeling misunderstood and share my philosophy on navigating life's transitions through mindfulness and inner wisdom. I explore the concept that we are all "dynamic processes" constantly evolving, rather than static beings locked into fixed identities or paths. Key topics I cover include: Learning to listen to your inner compass rather than seeking external validation My three pillars of personal growth: grounding, healing, and transformation Understanding healing as the capacity to hold suffering with compassion Breaking free from codependent patterns and victim consciousness The power of surrendering to uncertainty and embracing being "wrong" My personal journey from musician to spiritual guide through intuitive surrender I re-introduce my RISE journaling practice (Release, Inquiry, Self-awareness, Empowerment) and invite listeners to join my upcoming journaling challenge. The episode weaves together practical wisdom about mindfulness, meditation, and finding authentic alignment with your soul's calling.

Carl and Mike close out the show with final thoughts on college football and some of the outings from over the weekend and share more thoughts on why they believe Kalen DeBoar may not be ready or the guy currently for the Alabama program as they struggled in the season opening loss to FSU. They also note they believe Georgia Tech did a great job in pulling out the win against Colorado, however they need dynamic play from other players than Haynes King.
Most men think dominance means force. They bark orders, tighten control, or push until she submits. But that kind of control only creates compliance, not devotion. In this episode of Dom Sub Devotion, I share why true dominance doesn't come from pressure or intimidation, but from presence. Your ability to be steady, grounded, and unshakable in yourself. Over the course of this hour, you'll learn: • Why force erodes trust while presence builds it. • How to become a man whose energy shapes the room before he speaks. • The role of consistency in dissolving her fear and resistance over time. • Daily practices to cultivate presence—breath, stillness, clarity, intention. • How presence transforms erotic power exchange and deepens submission. Presence is harder than force, because it's not something you can fake. It's not a trick you pull out in a scene or an argument. Presence is who you are in every moment—at the dinner table, in conflict, in the bedroom, and beyond. And when you embody it consistently, it becomes the gravitational pull that she naturally yields to. Key Quote from the Episode: “Force can win a moment. Presence can win a lifetime.” Listen now to learn how to build the kind of dominance that doesn't have to demand, because it compels devotion on its own. ⸻ Resources & Next Steps If you're ready to go deeper, explore our courses and offerings: • Rapture — a journey into devotional D/s and erotic embodiment. https://infinitedevotion.com/rapture • Becoming a Dominant Man — Andrew's path for men ready to lead with clarity and integrity. https://infinitedevotion.com/becoming-a-dominant-man • Structuring Your D/s Dynamic — build a relationship structure that actually works for you. https://infinitedevotion.com/structuring-your-ds-dynamic • OnlyFans.

Today on Become A Calm Mama, we're continuing our conversation from last week about The Drama Triangle. This week, we're diving deeper into a healthier model, The Empowerment Dynamic (TED). You'll Learn:Unhelpful stories that you might be telling yourself right nowHow our thoughts and beliefs become our reality (and how to use this to your advantage)Questions to ask yourself to determine which roles you fall into mostHow to shift yourself and your family from drama to empowermentWhich roles I default to most and whyIn this episode, you'll learn HOW to actually switch roles and shift into this healthier dynamic. This is one of those episodes where you may want to grab your journal, answer some questions, and work through where these roles are showing up in your own family. ----------------------------------------In The Empowerment Dynamic, the roles shift from…Victim → CreatorPersecutor → ChallengerRescuer → CoachShifting Into The Empowerment DynamicWe all take on different roles at different times. It's normal to switch between them (even within a short period of time). But my guess is that there are a couple that you do most often. The challenge for you is to figure out how you act and why. Victim → CreatorBecoming a Creator is about getting creative with how you want to respond to life's challenges. It is inevitable that we will all experience sadness, pain, and misfortune. But you get to choose the way you look at and respond to these obstacles when they arise.The Victim has a “poor me” mindset. They don't really believe in their own power. They don't take responsibility for the circumstances that they find themselves in. They feel very helpless and trapped, doubt their own capabilities, and look to others to solve their problems for them.You can see how it would be easy for our kids to fall into this role. They're young, and little, and they do need our help. But there are ways to provide that help and guidance without being a helicopter parent or bulldozing a smooth road for them (which does nothing to help their self-confidence).If you think you or your child might be in a victim mindset, ask:Do you feel helpless?Do you feel like you have power here? Like you can do something about this situation?In the Empowerment Dynamic, we want to shift from the role of Victim into the role of Creator. This shift develops resilience and confidence.The Creator wants to create and be their best self. A creator thinks things like, “I'm good enough. I get to choose how to respond to my life,” and, “I am capable. I have the ability to take care of myself,” and, “I can trust myself. I know that I am worthy of trust.”You can help your child make this shift to believing in their abilities by affirming that:I know you are strong.I believe in your ability to figure this out.This is hard right now, but I know you're going to be okay.Don't bypass the feelings. Validate their emotion, show your support, and ask, “What do you want to do now? How do you want to handle this?”If you are in a victim mindset yourself, think about how you can get what you want in a healthy way. Think about times in the past when you have overcome challenges and feel gratitude for your strength in those moments. Persecutor → ChallengerThe shift from viewing someone as a Persecutor requires you to look at them from a more neutral place. Rather than seeing them as “the bad guy”, you see the circumstance as a challenge that you can overcome.And if you are showing up as a Persecutor, this shift...

Marty talks about a new precision fit patent filed for Apple Vision ProProNotesA Future Version of Apple's Vision Pro may provide users with a Precision Fit through Dynamic Adjustment Mechanismshttps://www.patentlyapple.com/2025/08/a-future-version-of-apples-vision-pro-may-provide-users-with-a-precision-fit-through-dynamic-adjustment-mechanisms.html The gist: Apple just had a patent spotlighted that's all about a “precision fit” Vision Pro—hardware that dynamically adjusts (think buttons/levers/dials, possibly motor-assist) to match each person's head and face. What Apple's aiming to fix: Current headsets (including today's Vision Pro) rely on manual straps and swapping cushions—fine, but fiddly—and comfort can drift during longer sessions. Apple's patent pushes toward auto-tuning hardware that gets you into the sweet spot faster and keeps you there. How it might work :- Dynamic supports: A headset frame that actively redistributes pressure so you don't get forehead/cheek hot spots. - Smart light seal concepts: Related Apple filings describe air bladders/valves that balance pressure across face zones—tight where you need it, forgiving where you don't. - Guided fit is the point: All of this is about landing your eyes in the optical “sweet spot” quickly and repeatably—clearer picture, less strain. (IPD alignment = sharper visuals is a known VR truth.) Why users should care:Comfort goes up, face marks go down. Longer, easier sessions. Faster hand-off: Family or teammates can throw it on and get tuned quickly—less strap fussing. More consistent clarity: Staying centered improves text and UI readability and reduces fatigue. Why this could advantage Apple vs. competitors:- Closed-loop fit (hardware + software): If Apple marries sensors, adjustable seals, and on-device guidance, you get a set-and-forget fit most rivals can't match with manual strap/IPD dials. - Perceived quality without new screens: Better, repeatable alignment makes the whole system feel sharper and more premium—no panel change required. - On-boarding win: Less tinkering = more people actually enjoying the demo, which matters for adoption. Where we are today: Vision Pro already uses swappable Light Seals/cushions and bands to improve fit; the patent path suggests Apple wants to automate more of that. Caveat: Patents ≠ products. Timelines aren't promised, but Apple's recent filings draw a clear line: comfort and precision fit are priority areas for the next wave of Vision hardware. Bottom line: If Apple ships even part of this self-tuning fit stack, Vision Pro could feel lighter, clearer, and friendlier to share—a practical edge that's hard for manual-only headsets to match.Follow the live stream at YouTube.com/@VisionProfiles on Monday nights at 9 PM EST or catch the video later on Youtube or audio on any pod catcher serviceMacStockMacstockconferenceandexpo.com Email: ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.comWebsite: ThePodTalk.Net

Dawn rejoins Andrew to celebrate 100 Episodes! Two years ago we launched this podcast with a simple vision: to share our real life as a Dom/sub couple beyond the limitations of short captions and quick clips on social media. Week after week, we've opened our lives, our marriage, and our devotion. Today, Episode 100 is a celebration, and a reintroduction. In this conversation, we revisit the heart of Infinite Devotion: • Who we are as a couple, and how our 24/7 D/s dynamic has shaped us. • What we stand for: truth, freedom, authenticity, and devotion. • Why we share our life so openly, from this podcast to social media to OnlyFans. • Why devotion and long-term commitment are essential to the depth we've built. • How D/s has been a path to growth, courage, honesty, and sexual liberation. • Why we're not here to give you a rulebook, but to show you how we live, so you can find your own path. We also reflect on what's changed since those first clunky recordings — the growth, the lessons, and the willingness to keep showing up every week. This is not a “how-to” podcast. We're not here to tell you how to live D/s. We're here to show you how we live it — and what's possible when you combine devotion, erotic expression, and unconditional love inside a long-term, committed relationship. ⸻ In This Episode You'll Learn: • Why authenticity matters more than rules or labels in D/s. • The difference between devotion and codependency. • How to recognize when fear and shame are blocking your freedom. • Why triggers are often pointers toward the very desires we need to claim. • How kink and everyday life can be integrated, not separated. ⸻ Resources & Next Steps If you're ready to go deeper, explore our courses and offerings: • Rapture — a journey into devotional D/s and erotic embodiment. https://infinitedevotion.com/rapture • Becoming a Dominant Man — Andrew's path for men ready to lead with clarity and integrity. https://infinitedevotion.com/becoming-a-dominant-man • Structuring Your D/s Dynamic — build a relationship structure that actually works for you. https://infinitedevotion.com/structuring-your-ds-dynamic • OnlyFans.

Send us a textIn this episode, we analyze the Malfoy family and discuss what should be carried over into the TV show. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:· 1:53 Something has to change. I'm not saying something is wrong, that's just a fact. The books are the books and the films are the films. The TV has to show us something new, and that will mean they have to change something. They can either put in more, or less. More would make them worse and more potent, and less would draw the curtain back a little and show us a softer side to them.· 11:03 Lucius is terrible. Should we keep that? I think we should, but not for the reason you might expect. We saw enough in the films to understand that there is so much more under the surface than we might imagine. I want to see more of that.· 14:53 Narissa is the good guy. Should we keep that? For her, it might be worth a change. We don't know her as well because she was introduced later in the story, so if we can change some moments around to gain more perspective on her sooner, that might be more valuable. · 19:41 Draco is the victim. Keep that? For sure. There isn't much wrong with how he was portrayed. We got more of those deep, vulnerable scenes from him that really show us who he is. Draco is under immense pressure when Voldemort orders him to kill Dumbledore, and that should be preserved.· 25:17 More Malfoy inner workings. We didn't get many scenes where the three Malfoys were interacting with each other outside of other company, and those kinds of scenes might be the most important in terms of understanding who they are as a family.Having anything you want to hear or say?

The Modern Minuteman concept is still being fleshed out and developed with lots of considerations when it comes to modern warfare. Among the many details to establish has been the apparent need for weapon platforms that can increase engagement tempo and firepower offering tactical options for small units and teams. Having a platform available that can offer "flip-the-script" capability has been hard to attain due to laws and lack of demand, but times have changed. Looking back at history and at fighting philosophies that were used to great effect, the "Auto Rifle" platform quickly emerges. To help explore this topic further and to truly breakdown the Auto Rifle and how it is attainable in topday's world, Jacob and Stephen sit down with Cody of Red Right Hand LLC. In this episode, Cody talks about the Auto Rifle purpose and it's role within small unit fighting philosophies as well as highlighting the AR pattern Auto Rifle / LMG uppers that his company developes.

A little over a year ago, I made a short reel discussing ventilating a patient in a severe metabolic acidosis. In the video, I mentioned that minimal to no PEEP might be appropriate. Not because the patient doesn't need PEEP, but because the shortened cycle time at higher respiratory rates can unintentionally generate dynamic PEEP on its own. But what if it was intentional? What if the presence of a wider pressure when the ventilator switches into exhalation would cause the air to exit more rapidly? In this podcast, I discuss my thought process with respiratory therapist extraordinare, Melody Bishop @melodybishop_rt. She helps surface some definitions and distinctions to terms like air-trapping, Set PEEP, & auto-PEEP while we discuss ventilation strategies in metabolic acidosis. The blog below was what I had sent her before the podcast to get all my thoughts & illustrations down in writing. As always, please follow your local guidelines, and I hope you enjoy listening to the conversation.
