About ClintClint is the CEO and a co-founder at Cribl, a company focused on making observability viable for any organization, giving customers visibility and control over their data while maximizing value from existing tools.Prior to co-founding Cribl, Clint spent two decades leading product management and IT operations at technology and software companies, including Splunk and Cricket Communications. As a former practitioner, he has deep expertise in network issues, database administration, and security operations.Links: Cribl: https://cribl.io Cribl sandbox: https://sandbox.cribl.io Cribl.cloud: https://cribl.cloud Jobs: https://cribl.io/jobs TranscriptAnnouncer: Hello, and welcome to Screaming in the Cloud with your host, Chief Cloud Economist at The Duckbill Group, Corey Quinn. This weekly show features conversations with people doing interesting work in the world of cloud, thoughtful commentary on the state of the technical world, and ridiculous titles for which Corey refuses to apologize. This is Screaming in the Cloud.Corey: This episode is sponsored in part my Cribl Logstream. Cirbl Logstream is an observability pipeline that lets you collect, reduce, transform, and route machine data from anywhere, to anywhere. Simple right? As a nice bonus it not only helps you improve visibility into what the hell is going on, but also helps you save money almost by accident. Kind of like not putting a whole bunch of vowels and other letters that would be easier to spell in a company name. To learn more visit: cribl.ioCorey: And now for something completely different!Corey: Welcome to Screaming in the Cloud. I'm Corey Quinn. My guest this week for this promoted episode is Clint Sharp, the CEO and co-founder of a company called Cribl. Clint, thank you for joining me, and let's get the big question out of the way first: what is Cribl?Clint: Yeah, so Cribl makes a stream processing engine for log and metric data. And that sounds really dry and boring, but what it really means is, we help connect, in the observability and security world, lots of log and metric sources, so you can take stuff from anywhere and put it to anywhere. And you can think of it like ETL or you can think of it like middleware; it sits there in this particular space, and it's built for SRE and security people.Corey: Now, I looked into this a little bit previously, and I had a sneaking suspicion when I started kicking a few of the tires on this, that there's probably going to be an economic story of optimization and saving money because of a couple things. One, that's what I do; I pay attention to things that save customers money in the end run, and to your company's called Cribl—that's C-R-I-B-L. That should probably have another L and certainly, you should buy a vowel to go in there somewhere, but that's someone optimizing but still keeping things intact enough to be understood slash pronounceable. It really does feel like in this space, saving money on vowels is a notable tenet for companies that focus on saving money.Clint: Yeah, so what's interesting about enterprises is they care about money, and then they don't care about money. And so it's a really good way to get a meeting. We definitely do help people save a ton of money, but ultimately, I think what the value people get out of the product is helping connect all the things that they have. And so one of the biggest problems that we see in the spaces is, “Hey, I have all these agents deployed.” Maybe it's Fluentd or Fluent Bit, or Elastic Beats or Splunk's Forwarder.And I want to get this data over to my fancy new data lake, or over to my machine learning and AI systems, and maybe I want to put it on a Kafka Topic, but it's only designed to work with the thing it's designed to work with. So, if I have Beats deployed, it works with Elastic. Okay, great. How do I also use that same data elsewhere? And really, that's the big problem that we end up solving for our customers.Corey: It's the many-to-many problem. There's a lot of work that's implemented multiple times in multiple ways; it feels like it's effectively you're logging the same thing 15 different times in 15 different ways.Clint: Well, then you look at the endpoint, and you find, “Oh, hey, we've got, like, eight agents rolled out here,” which is, you know, one from each vendor, they're all collecting the same thing. And then people are like, “Oh, man, this is chewing up a ton of resources and we're spending 20 or 30% of every box just, like, collecting security data and IT data. And couldn't that be better?” And then oh, by the way, each one of those agents has their own security surface area, so you have to make sure that those agents themselves are secure because they're often making outbound connections; they're listening for inbound connections. So, we really kind of help at the edge, help people reuse existing resources.Corey: One thing you said a few sentences ago caught me a little bit off guard and I want to dive into that a little bit. You talked about the observability and security world. Now, every time I talk to folks in one of those two spaces, they're sort of tangentially aware of the other one exists, on some level, but they're always framed as two very distinct universes. And you talk about them as if they're effectively one and the same. Was that intentional?Clint: Well, the data is the same. And it starts there because we're collecting log data, and that log data may go into a SIEM tool, and people are using that to try to understand their security posture, and malicious actors, and threats. Oh, and by the way, that same log data is also used for understanding the performance and availability of your systems. The same type of metric data is used in both, the same type of catalogs that say, hey, what is my inventory, and what assets do I have, and where are they deployed? And all of that is relevant for both sides.And the tooling often ends up being very similar, if not identical. And I used to work in Splunk many years ago; that's a tool that's well known for being popular in both camps. And so I developed this decade-long perspective of like, man, I'd show up and actually, they're sitting right next to each other; there's DevOps—DevSecOps now, which are now trying to marry those things. And so certainly, there's just a ton of overlap.Corey: It's still all just sparkling systems administration, but people fight me on that one.Clint: Oh, yeah. Well, yeah, so SRE is sysadmin plus, plus, plus, plus, plus.Corey: Now, I've told it—what is it, it's SRE if it's in the Mountain View region of Silicon Valley. Otherwise, it's just sparkling DevOps? Yep. Same story. It's from my perspective, we called ourselves sysadmins, and then if we called ourselves DevOps, but, “I know, but DevOps isn't a job title.”Great, but it is a 40% raise so I'm going to be quiet about the purity of titles and take the money was my approach back then. And now there are 10 or 15 different ways you can refer to people who are more or less doing the same job and there's no consistency between company to company in many respects. They almost become buzzwords and trite at some point, but it's easier than trying to have a 15-minute conversation in response to, “So, what do you do at whatever company you work at?”Clint: Well, also the grizzled sysadmin persona very much now a security person as well, right? So, you know, coming out of that sysadmin lineage, now I have to learn a whole bunch of new words, and security very much as a discipline, what I would criticize as saying, is very gatekeeper-y in terms of, “Okay, we're going to come up with their own vernacular so that we know that you're not one of us.” That's one of my big criticisms of security. But the skill set, the same people who were sysadmin 20 years ago are definitely becoming security specialists, they're becoming SREs. And so if you share the same lineage, then you're really not all that different.Corey: Well, that's why I launched Last Week in AWS security newsletter podcast combo that just as just recently started launching as of the time that this airs because, “Security is everyone's job,” but strangely, they don't pay everyone like that. And it ties into an entire ecosystem of folks who have to care about security, but the word security doesn't appear in their job title. And most security products seem to be pitched at the executive level where they use the same tired wording that you'll see on airport ads everywhere, or they're talking to InfoSec practitioners—whatever those might look at—and tying into, in some cases, a very hostile community. In other cases, they're talking extensively about the ins and outs of how to overcome and defeat particular attack styles, or the—worst of all worlds—where it just reduces down into compliance and auditing checkboxes, which no one gets super excited about. I'm not interested in any of that.I want to tell stories about, okay, as someone who has other work to get done, what's the security impact of what's happening lately? How do you round it up and distill it down into something useful, instead of something that winds up just acting as a giant distraction and becoming a budget justifier?Clint: Well, security detection, I think, is a really fascinating area. You're seeing a lot of consolidation now between traditional SIEM companies that—Splunk would be in there, but then you've got newer players like Exabeam, you got newer players like CrowdStrike who are coming from the EDR space, and they're coming very strongly and saying, “Hey, look, I own the endpoint but really what I need to be able to do is analyze all this data.” And that's where really these things are combining because tell me that XDR is not fundamentally the same—like, I keep using the word lineage, but the same type of product that I was building a SIEM from before. And most people I talked to are having a really hard time. Like, “What's the difference between XDR and SIEM? Aren't these things largely the same?”But at the same time, then when you look at observability, it's the same problem; I need to be able to ask and answer arbitrary questions of data. And security detection is fundamentally the same problem, I have all this data that's being egressed from my complex systems, all my endpoints, all of my VMs, my containers, all of my infrastructure, all my applications, and I need to be able to detect when someone is doing something wrong, like, some malicious actor is doing something wrong. Tell me that's not observability.Corey: Of course it is. And the same problems apply to both where, if I have something happened in my application and my observability tooling doesn't tell me for 20 minutes, that's kind of a problem in the same way that you have that in the security space. Yet somehow, AWS's CloudTrail takes about that, on average, to wind up surfacing various things that are happening in the environment. In many cases, the entire event can be over by the time CloudTrail says, “Hey, there's a thing going on.” For those who aren't familiar, CloudTrail effectively captures management events that happen talking to the AWS APIs.So, someone creates something, someone accesses something, et cetera, et cetera. That's useful when you need that, but if you're going to take action based on that, you want to know sooner rather than later. Same story with any sort of monitoring tool that, “Oh, yeah, the site's taking an outage and our system will let us know in only 20 short minutes.” Oh, I assure you customers will tell us long before then.Clint: That's sort of dovetails into some of the things that we see in the marketplace that we help with which are—talk about CloudTrail, people say all data is security relevant but I have to pay for all that data, too, so that data has to go somewhere. Do I care about every cloud—of course, I don't care about every CloudTrail event; I care about some subset of those.Corey: And honestly, in the full sweep of time, you really care about that one specific CloudTrail thing, but it's the needle in the haystack.Clint: And so AWS, this is a constant conflict between people who have to observe and secure systems need all the data because I may not know in advance what question I want to ask, but at the same time, I do know that not all of that is necessarily interesting right now, and so there's a fundamental tension between, okay, the developer says, “Well, look. You can't ask a question of data that's not there, so I'm going to put everything in the log. Literally every byte of data, everything that I could ever think of, I'm going to put in that log.”And then the receiver of that says like—I'll give a good example. We've been talking about EDR. CrowdStrike EDR logs, phenomenal data source, have a ton of really interesting information about the security of your endpoints, and they also have an extra 100 fields that nobody gives a crap about. So, what do I do with that data? Do I pay to ingest all that data because all my vendors are charging me based off the bytes of data that are going into their platforms? And so there's a real optimization potential there to have a really strong opinion on what good data is.Corey: Part of the problem, too, is that you absolutely want the totality of everything captured around the specific event you care about. But by and large, we've all been in environments where we have a low-traffic app, and we see giant piles of web server logs. “Okay, great. Let's take a look at what those web server logs are.” And by volume, it's 98% load balancer health checks showing up.It seems to me there might either be a way to strip them out entirely or alternately express those in a way that is a lot more compact and doesn't fill things out. I still feel like there's some terrible company somewhere where their entire way of getting signal from noise is to pay a whole bunch of interns to read the entire log by hand. I like to imagine that is me speaking hyperbolically, but I'm kind of scared it's not.Clint: Yeah. And then the question is, well, then how do I achieve a goal of actually getting the right data to the right place? So, that's something that we help out about. I think that the—I feel a lot for the persona of this kind of sysadmin, this type of security person because they're caught in this tension: like, do I go write code? My skill set as an SRE or my skill set as a security person is being an expert in the data itself.I know that event is good, and I know that event is bad. Am I also supposed to be a person who then needs to go write a bunch of pipelines and Lambda functions, and how do I actually achieve the goal because there's always way more demand than there is capacity to be able to onboard all of this data. So fundamentally, how do we get the right thing to the right place?Corey: That's, on some level, a serious problem. I will say that looking at what you do and how you do it, you take a whole bunch of different disparate data sources, and then effectively reduce all of those into passing through the Cribl log stream, and then sending the data out to exactly where it needs to go. And I have to imagine that when you talk about what you're doing to typical VCs and whatnot, their question is, “Ah, but what if AWS launches a thing to do that?” To which I can only assume that your response must have been, “You're right, if AWS does learn to speak coherently and effectively across all of their internal service teams, we're going to have a serious problem.” At which point, I can only imagine that your VCs threw back their heads, you shared a happy laugh, and then they handed you another $200 million, which you have just raised. Congratulations, by the way.Clint: Thank you so much. It's, you know, people say a lot of times in startup-land, like, “Oh, we shouldn't celebrate the fundraising.” I'll tell you, as a person who's done it a few times, I celebrate. That's a shitload of work.Corey: Oh, absolutely. I looked into it in the very early days of, okay, as I'm building out what would become The Duckbill Group, do I talk to VCs and the rest? And I did a little bit of investigation, and it's, wow, that it's so much work to build the pitch deck and have all the meetings and wind up doing all of that. I'd rather just go and sell things to customers and see how that works. And oh, that turned out to raise money that I don't have to repay.Okay, that seems like a different path. And there are advantages and disadvantages to every approach you can take on this. I mean, yeah, no shade here on how you decide to build out a technology company using VC-backed up resourcing, which is a sensible way to do it, but it's a different style. And the sheer amount of work that very clearly goes into raising a fundraising round is just staggering to me. And that's for seed-level rounds; I can only imagine down the path. This is not your first round.Clint: Yeah, I mean, it's a validation, I think, of where we're going, and really, kind of, our vision because we've been talking a lot about how data moves, but I think one of the other key concepts that we're advocating for that there's a net-new concept in the industry is this concept of an observability lake. And back to that tension of there's always way more data, S3 as an example provides excellent economics, but very few people provide a way for you to use just raw data that I end up going and dumping into S3. And that's really the fallback for it. Like, if I don't know what to do with this data, I don't want to delete it because what if it becomes security relevant? Let's talk about the SUNBURST SolarWinds attack.Everybody in the industry wishes that they had every flow log, every log from every endpoint dating back two or three years so that they could actually go do a detailed investigation of, “Okay. That SolarWinds box got breached, and what all was it talking to?” And they can actually build a graph from that and go understand that. But most people have deleted all that data. They've decided that I can't afford to have it anymore.And so really, this concept of a lake is like, well, look, I can finally at least put it somewhere as an insurance policy and make sure that's actually going to be relevant. And then eventually what's going to be happening is people are going to go help you make use of that data—and we will as well—be going out there to help you take petabytes and petabytes and petabytes of logs data, metric data, trace data, observability data and give you the ability to analyze that effectively.Corey: My constant complaint about the term ‘data lake'—because I've seen this happen in various client environments, AWS will release something that specifically targets data lakes, and I'll talk to my client about that service. “This is a data lake solutions, but it would be awesome.” And they look at me like I'm very foolish and say, “Yeah, we don't have a data lake.” To which my response is, “Great. What's that eight petabytes of data sitting in S3?” “Oh, it's mostly logs.”And I don't think that they're foolish, I don't think I'm foolish, but very often talking to folks who have data lakes do not recognize what they have as being a data lake because that feels almost like it's a marketing term that has been inflicted on people. Like, they would consider it—because we all consider it this way—as more of a data morass. You're not really sure what's in there; you're told by your data science teams, who are incredibly expensive, that one day we'll unlock value in all of those web server logs, the load balancer health checks dating back to 2012, but we just don't know what that is yet. But do you really want to risk deleting it? And it becomes this, effectively, deadstock that sits there.So, you want to retain it, particularly if you have compliance obligations. There's—theoretically at least—business value locked up in those things and you need to be able to access that in a reasonable way. And anytime I see tooling that winds up billing based upon amount of data stored in it, so just cut retention significantly. It feels like it cuts against the grain of what they're trying to do.Clint: I mean, yeah, retention, I mean, especially for security people—this is the difference between security and operations because operations is like, “Last 24 hours a data, I need. Pretty much after that, give me some aggregated statistics and I'm good.” Security people want full-fidelity data dating back years. But I think one of the other important concepts that we haven't seen in the industry, and part of what we're trying to change is, you know, I put data into a tool today. It's that tool's data, right?So—and it doesn't matter which tool it is that I'm put—they're all the same. But fundamentally, I put data into a metrics or time-series database and put data into a logging tool, and that data is now owned by that vendor. And the big difference that we see in the concept of a lake is raw data at rest in S3 buckets—or other object storage depending on your cloud provider, depending on who, on-prem, is providing you that interface—in a way in which I can choose in the future, what tool is going to use to analyze that and I'm no longer locked in. And I think that's really what we've been trying to advocate as an industry is that every enterprise I've talked to has everything. They've got one of every single tool and none of them are going away.There is no such thing as a single pane of glass; that's a myth that we've been talking about for 30 freaking years and it's just never actually going to happen. And so really, what you need to be able to do is integrate things better and just make sure that people can actually use the tool that they want to use to analyze the data in the way that they see fit, and not be bound by the decision that was made six months ago as to which tool to put it in.Corey: This episode is sponsored in part by Thinkst. This is going to take a minute to explain, so bear with me. I linked against an early version of their tool, canarytokens.org in the very early days of my newsletter, and what it does is relatively simple and straightforward. It winds up embedding credentials, files, that sort of thing in various parts of your environment, wherever you want to; it gives you fake AWS API credentials, for example. And the only thing that these things do is alert you whenever someone attempts to use those things. It's an awesome approach. I've used something similar for years. Check them out. But wait, there's more. They also have an enterprise option that you should be very much aware of canary.tools. You can take a look at this, but what it does is it provides an enterprise approach to drive these things throughout your entire environment. You can get a physical device that hangs out on your network and impersonates whatever you want to. When it gets Nmap scanned, or someone attempts to log into it, or access files on it, you get instant alerts. It's awesome. If you don't do something like this, you're likely to find out that you've gotten breached, the hard way. Take a look at this. It's one of those few things that I look at and say, “Wow, that is an amazing idea. I love it.” That's canarytokens.org and canary.tools. The first one is free. The second one is enterprise-y. Take a look. I'm a big fan of this. More from them in the coming weeks.Corey: I can tell this story—why not. I don't imagine it was your direct fault, but nine years ago, now—so I should disclaim this. I am not even suggesting this is the way it is today. I was at a startup and we reached out to Splunk to look at handling a lot of our log analysis needs because it turned out we had a bunch of things that were spewing out logs. Nothing compared to what most sites look at these days, but back then for us, it felt like a lot of data.And we got a quote that was more than the valuation of the company at the time. Because it seems like their biggest market headwind at the time was the rise of democracy basically making monarchies go out of fashion, and there were fewer princesses that we could kidnap for ransom in order to pay the Splunk bill. And, to their credit, they reached out every quarter and said, “Oh, have your needs change any?” “No, we have not massively inflated the value of this company so we can afford your bill. Thank you for asking.”But the problem that I had is when I pushed back on them on this—because it's not just one of those make fun of it and move on stories because Splunk was at the time very much the best-of-breed answer here—their response was, “Oh, just go ahead and log less and that brings your bill back into something that's a lot more cohesive and understandable.”Clint: Which destroys the utility of the whole tool to begin with.Corey: Exactly. The entire reason to have a tool like that is to go through vast quantities of data and extract meaning from it. And if you're not able to do that because you have less data, it completely defeats the value proposition of what it is you're bringing to the table. Because in the security space, in many ways in the observability space, and certainly in my world of the cost optimization space, it's an optimization story. It does not speed your time to market, it does not increase revenue in almost every case, so it's always going to be a trailing function behind things that do.Companies are structured top to bottom in order to increase revenue and enter new markets with the right offerings at the right times and serve customers because that can massively increase the value of the company. Reduction and, I guess, the housekeeping stuff is things people get really excited about for short windows of time and then not again. It's inconsistent.Clint: Yeah, about every time the bill comes due is when they get really excited about it.Corey: Exactly. And I have to assume on some level, this was one of those, “Okay, first start using it. You'll see how valuable it becomes, and then you'll start logging more data.” But it didn't feel right because it's either being disingenuous, or it's saying that, “Oh, don't worry. You'll find the money somehow.”Which is not true in that scenario. Now, they've redone their pricing multiple times since then. There are other entrants in the market that help us look at data in a bunch of different ways, but across the board, it's frustrating seeing that there are all these neat tools that I wanted to use and I was perfectly positioned to use back then, and now nine years later, when someone says, “Oh, we use Splunk.” My immediate instinctive reaction is, “Oh, wow. You must have a lot of money to spend on services.” Which is not necessarily even close to reality in some cases, but first impressions like that really stick around a long time.Clint: Oh, absolutely. They stick around often because they're reaffirmed multiple times throughout [laugh] people's continued interactions. And I think there's just really a fundamental tension in the marketplace where the value proposition is massive amounts of data. And massive is different, depending on the size of your organization: if you're a big Fortune 100, massive might be, you know, a 100 petabytes at rest and a petabyte a day of data moving; or for you, massive might be a terabyte a day moving, and maybe a 50 terabytes at rest. But—and by the way, that's not going down.So, some of the bigger trends that we're seeing with the advent of zero trust, with the advent of remote work, with just in general growth of cloud containerized workloads, microservices, people are seeing a lot more data today than they were seeing two years ago, three years ago. And by the way, it's not like IT went from 2% of the budget to 10% of the budget. The budget's the same, so I got to do more with less. And it's a tension between data growth and cost and capacity. And so we got to get smarter.Corey: I like the fact that you're saying that you have to get smarter as you think about this from a tool perspective of being able to serve your customers, as opposed to a lot of tooling out there seems to inherently and intrinsically take the world view—and I don't know if this is an actual choice or just an unfortunate side effect—of, “Yeah, we have to educate our customers because right now, our customers are fairly dumb and we'd like it if they were smarter. If you were smart enough to appreciate how we do things, then things will go super well.” And I always found that to be a condescending attitude that doesn't serve customers super well. And it also leaves a lot of money on the table because for better or worse, you have to meet customers where they are: at their level of understanding, at their expression of the problem. And I've talked to a number of folks over at Cribl and, similar to certain large cloud providers, one of the things that you focus on is the customer; it's clearly a value of the company. How do you think about that?Clint: I'm a thousand percent agree with you. And for us, what I found after having been a practitioner for a decade and then working my way over to the vendor side, it's really nothing specific about one particular employer. Being a vendor is so complex. There's all these things that you're trying to con—you have investors, and you have the press, and analysts, and you have people who are constantly trying to influence where it is that you're—“I need to be in the upper right of the Gartner Magic Quadrant, so I have to make sure that those analysts really believe what it is that I'm saying.” And then pretty soon, just nobody even talks about the customer anymore.It's like, well, do people actually want to buy it? Is this thing actually solving real problems? And so from the beginning, me and my co-founders, we just wanted to make sure that the concept of the customer was embedded at the core of the company. And every time that an employee at Cribl is interacting and talking about what should we do next, and what features should we build, and how should we market, and how should we sell, let's make sure the customer is there. Customers first always is the value, including in how we sell.We actively leave money on the table when it's not in the customer's right interest because we know that we want them to come back and buy from us again, later. When we market, we try to make sure that we're speaking to our customers in a language that is their language. When we're building a product, we use the product, we try to make sure that this is actually everyday, we don't look at, hey, it needs to look like this and have these features to meet these criteria and be called this. It's just like, “Well, does it actually help the customer solve a real problem for them? If so, let's build it. And if not, then who gives a [BLEEP]?”Corey: Exactly. It's understanding what your customers' pain points are. I mean, I ran into some similar problems when I was starting my consultancy where I—it turns out that I knew people who were more or less top of their class when it came to AWS bill understanding, reconciliation, and the rest. And those are the people I reached out to because I assumed that they knew what they're doing. There must be lots of people like them, everyone must be like these folks.And I talked to them about how they looked at their AWS bill. And, okay, “They said I would—I'd love to hire you to come in and do this as a consultant, but I would expect this, this, this, this, and this.” And, “Okay, I better come loaded for bear.” And so I did. And it turns out there's a lot more people out there who have never heard of a savings plan or a reserved instance before or, “Wait. You mean continues to charge me even after I'm still using it if I don't turn it off?” Yes, that is generally how it works.There's nothing wrong with that level of understanding of these things—well, there are several things wrong but that's beside the point—but understanding where folks are and understanding how you can meet them where they are and get them to a better place is way more important than trying to prove that I'm the smartest kid in town when it comes to a lot of the edge case, and corner cases, and nuanced areas. And so many tools seem to have fallen in love with their own tooling, and in love with how smart they are, and how clear their lines of thought leadership are, that they've almost completely forgotten that there are people in the world who do not think like that, who do not have the level of visibility or deep thought into the problem space; they just know that the logs are unmanageable, or the bill for this thing is really expensive, or whatever their expression or experience of that problem is, there are tools out there that can help them, but all of the messaging, all of the marketing distills down to, “Oh, you must be at least this smart to enter,” like it's an amusement park ride with a weird sign.Clint: Software is fundamentally a people business and when you end up implementing a tool—what's become fascinating to me as I've become the CEO of this company, rather than just kind of a product guy, so now I've had to sell it and I've had to market it, and I had to start very much from scratch, is that this stuff doesn't just get implemented by magic; even if they download the tool and is the easiest to use tool that you've ever used, they still don't have the time to learn all the details and intricacies of your product, and so hey, they actually want some professional services people to come and go install that; they want a salesperson to help them understand the value. I know a lot of people, especially coming from my background in, like, SRE or sysadmin from when I was doing it, kind of, “Oh, salespeople.” But, like, they do a real job; they help you articulate the value of this thing so that your bosses understand what you're actually buying. The sales engineers help you understand what those features are. And so having a customer-aligned company means that every interaction that they have with you needs to be a really, really great interaction so that they want to interact with you again because fundamentally, even though the bits are really awesome and they solve this really awesome technology challenge, nobody really cares about it.Ultimately, they're buying from people, they're implementing software built by people, and they're calling for support—which is another important part—from people who fundamentally care about them as well. So, in every interaction, fundamentally software is a people business, and you got to have the best people and the people that care.Corey: I wish more people took that philosophy because, frankly, it's missing from an awful lot of different expressions of what companies do. It's oh, if we can make the code just a little bit smarter, a little bit more predictive, then we never have to talk to the customer at all. It's, “No. You shouldn't write a line of anything before doing a whole bunch of customer research to validate that your understanding of the problem space aligns with theirs.”Clint: A good way to find out that doesn't work is to fail for a while, too. So, [laugh] so we did our fair share of that, too, and kind of pontificating and trying to figure out what we thought was best at the market, and it turned out that really what you needed to be able to do was to work closely with customers and understand their problems and tightly pair that sales cycle, that marketing messaging, that product all towards customer pain. And if you do that, customers are great because they see the people who care, and they will reward you by becoming your customer and continuing to advocate for you and talk about you. And it's so rewarding if you can take the right perspective.Corey: So, we've covered a fair number of things: your philosophy on the world of security versus observability; we've talked about meeting customers where they are; we've talked about AWS being so inept at communicating internally and cross-functionally that you're able to raise staggeringly large rounds, and we've talked about, I guess, how we wind up viewing the world of log collection, for lack of a better term. If people want to learn more about what you're up to, and how you get there, where can they find you?Clint: Yeah, go to cribl.io. If you're a hands-on product person and you just want to see what we do, you can go to sandbox.cribl.io. And there's an online learning course, takes about an hour, walk you through the product. We'd love for you to try it.Corey: Oh, I don't have to speak to a salesperson?Clint: No, you don't have to talk to anybody. You can download the bits, you can try our cloud product for free at cribl.cloud. We are all about making sure that engineers can get access to the product before you have to talk to us. And if you think that's valuable, if this helps you solve a problem, then and only then should you engage with us and we'll see if we can figure out a way to sell you some software.Corey: Customer-focused. I'm also going to take a spot check here. I'm going to guess that given your recent funding news, you're also aggressively hiring.Clint: We are hiring across every function, and if you are interested in working for our customers-first software company and this sounds refreshing, please check out cribl.io/jobs, and we've hiring everywhere.Corey: I can endorse. We used to hang out, back before you wound up starting this place, and you were kicking around this idea of, “I have an idea for a company,” and my general perception is, “Eh, I don't know. Doesn't sound like it has legs to me.” And well, here we are. I sure can pick them. Badly. Clint, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me.Clint: Thanks, Corey. It's been a pleasure.Corey: Clint Sharp, CEO and co-founder of Cribl. I'm Cloud Economist Corey Quinn and this is Screaming in the Cloud.

Last week's mass shooting in Plymouth is still reverberating, and the latest headlines suggest that police are revisiting their decision to rule out terrorism... so to help us sort through the debris, is one of our favorite guests here at Incel: friend of the pod, Phil Gurski (@borealissaves).

Two General Applications from John 2:10 “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.” ...the cheaper wine… What are you sipping on? ...you have saved the best till now... Would you like for the next half of your life to go differently than the first half? It can - through Christ. A Special Application: Moms and Their Sons Based on subtle nuances in this passage, Mary had some hidden motives that Jesus knows about and deals with while at the same time, actually addressing the need. Sue Bohlin of Probe Ministries helps us here. Here's the wisdom she's learned about being a mom to a son. • Push your son towards his father and encourage their relationship. • Affirm your son's masculinity. It's great that you're a man. • Allow for emotional distance and independence. Don't try to keep him bound to you like a baby as he gets older. • Refuse to diminish the glory of the father / son relationship; don't get in the middle of it. • Nurture and comfort with empathy, but allow your husband to nurture differently (aggression nurturing), such as “Hop up, you're OK.” Boys need to learn to develop a thicker skin from their dads. • Don't insist that he look you in the eyes when you're having a difficult conversation (except when it's time to apologize). It's especially threatening and painful for most boys. Take a walk or drive with him where you are shoulder to shoulder, or talk to him in dim lighting (such as bedtime), to encourage him to open up to you. Rhonda Stoppe shares that there are some possible negative consequences that could result from coercing or plotting for a son's success. 1. He will realize that you are attempting to gain recognition for yourself through his accomplishments and will rebel. “Why do you involve me?” “Eh, because I want to prove to everybody how wrong they've been about me.” 2. He will find himself pushed into a position he is not ready to take on. “It's not my hour.” Jesus knew how to handle his mother; most sons don't. 3. He will become prideful, arrogant, and self-exalting. Again, Jesus guards against this by remaining behind the scenes at the wedding. 4. He will become a momma's boy who can't pursue accomplishments on his own. Was Jesus a momma's boy? Did he say on track with his mission? 5. He will feel he is entitled to special treatment. Jesus refused that mindset. That's what the hour was about – the time when I'm treated the opposite of how I should be. 6. He will be resented by his peers and siblings. When people see a mom trying to get her son the starting spot or the best job or the limelight, they resent it. And Jesus' siblings resented him. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/shcc/message

Habíamos tenido que mover, con mucho cuidado, la pantalla de la computadora. Estar cenando en medio de una pequeña oficina a la luz de las velas era surrealista. —Estupendo —dije, entusiasmado, mientras me frotaba las manos—. Me encantan las tortas. Frente a la torre donde tengo mi apartamento, allá en Ciudad de México, había un sitio que vendía unas tortas estupendas. —¿Tortas? —se extrañó Bianca—. No me digas que en México le dicen así a los sándwiches… —Sí, claro —contesté. —¡Qué curioso! —dijo Bianca—. En Uruguay, una torta es un pastel dulce. Lo típico en un cumpleaños. Xavi rio. —No lo vais a creer, pero en España, una torta es un puñetazo —dijo—. Lo que vosotros llamáis «torta», Bianca, en España es conocido como «tarta». —¡Me estás tomando el pelo! —respondió Bianca, riendo también—. ¡En Uruguay y en Argentina, una «tarta» es siempre salada! Puede estar rellena de atún, o de verduras, o de jamón y queso… —O de todo eso —sugerí. Pero la cosa no había acabado ahí: —Lo que vosotros llamáis «tarta», en España es conocido como «empanada». Esta vez fue Francisco quien respondió: —En México, y creo que en la mayoría de los países de Latinoamérica, una «empanada» es una masa de hojaldre rellena —dijo. —Lo que en España se conoce como «empanadilla» —dijo Xavi. —Eh, chicos… —dijo Diego, y todos lo miramos—. Llámenlos como quieran, pero ¿podemos comer ya? Glossary poner la mesa: to set the table. en realidad: actually. torta: (in Mexico) sandwich; (in Spain) slap; (in Argentina and Uruguay) cake. pastel: cake, pie. puñetazo: punch. tarta: (in Spain) cake; (in Argentina and Uruguay) pie. tomar el pelo: (idiom) to pull someone's leg. atún: tuna. empanada: (in Spain) pie; (in Latin America) salty pastry. empanadilla: (in Spain) salty pastry.

This jam is 8:28 long! Haha, I didn't realize how long I made it, oh well. If you listen to the whole tune, well; I certainly appreciate it! I was going for a more mellow beat this week. If you were wondering about the cat, well...she's doing fine. I named her Deckard. I guess, if you name an animal, chances are, you're probably going to keep it. Eh, maybe...if I find a better person than myself (which is extremely hard to find), I might give her up. I'm not really a cat person, but I also have a heart and didn't want her to die. Once again, thank you for wanting to listen-in on my beats/jams. I don't want my creative side to die on me, so that's why I continue to pursue this. Imagine, playing a video game, and you hear one of my tracks in the background! That's my ultimate dream actually, to do just that. Hopefully, it works out for me, but these days, it's hard to find any optimism in this dire world of ours. See you on 8.20.2021...Deckard says hello.CDL2021

Eh, weirdos!! Did I spell "thieves" right?! That's a tough word. This week are continuing our edition of Hometown Haunts CANADA! But it turns out not all Canadians are polite and it sure is a lot darker now that DJ is gone... This time 'round we're covering Canadian true crime! This episode is full of disturbing topics and listener discretion is advised. Lauren is covering Canadian serial killer Wayne Clifford Boden whose fetish gave him the moniker "The Vampire Rapist." Ashley is covering the Saskatoon freezing deaths which is a part of a bigger phenomenon in Canada known as "starlight tours" where police officers pick up indigenous people for minor crimes and drive them several miles out of town and leave them in the freezing cold temperatures, sometimes to die. As I said before, this episode is particularly serious and we cover some pretty sensitive topics. Rape, murder, mutilation, the abuse of indigenous people and police brutality. It leads to a brief discussion about the meaning of ACAB and even the murder of George Floyd. If these are topics that upset you, or topics that you don't wish to hear about we suggest you skip this one!

Ca y est ! « La rencontre tant attendue des Ivoiriens vient d'avoir lieu », nous dit L'Infodrome. « Après 10 années d'inimitié […] une rencontre historique », « Alassane Ouattara et Laurent Gbagbo main dans la main au palais présidentiel d'Abidjan », lit-on sur le site internet. Et voit-on également, car les photos des deux hommes sont évidemment partout. « Un grand moment », pour L'Intelligent d'Abidjan. « Ouattara et Gbagbo tout sourire, comme souvent avant les 3.000 morts de la crise postélectorale de 2010-2011 », rappelle L'Intelligent. « Comme de bons vieux amis », titre L'Avenir. Oui, c'étaient des « retrouvailles chaleureuses » confirme Soir Info. En somme, de « belles retrouvailles », résume L'Inter. Pour L'Intelligent d'Abidjan, elles marquent plus largement le « soulagement » et l'« espoir d'un apaisement durable ». Mais, cela, tout de même note le journal, « sur fond d'interrogations et de prudence ». C'est vrai, c'est « un grand pas de franchi, mais le plus dur commence », estime aussi Le Nouveau Réveil. L'importance des premiers mots Lors de ces rencontres, les premiers mots sont toujours importants. L'Intelligent fait justement quelques indiscrétions, en livrant ce que « Ouattara et Gbagbo se sont dit au moment des accolades ». Eh bien, en descendant de sa voiture, « Laurent Gbagbo a voulu retirer son masque de protection pour saluer le Président de la République, apprend-on, mais celui-ci lui a lancé gentiment, avec un large sourire "Non, non ! Garde le masque, pour qu'on donne l'exemple" ». Tout un symbole. Après cela, « ils se sont aussitôt jetés dans les bras l'un de l'autre », écrit L'Intelligent et « alors qu'ils étaient encore enlacés », le président Ouattara a dit comme il était heureux de retrouver Laurent Gbagbo. L'ancien président, lui a retourné la politesse et s'est excusé pour son retard de 20 minutes. L'importance des mots suivants Et les mots qui suivent ont également toute leur importance. Sur le fond, lors de leur entretien, « l'ex-président » Laurent Gbagbo a invité son « ex-rival » à « libérer les prisonniers politiques », rapporte L'Infodrome. Oui, L'Infodrome écrit désormais « ex-rival », voilà un autre symbole. Avec cette rencontre au sommet, L'Inter le note également, « Ouattara et Ggagbo rétablissent la confiance ». Il est donc loin le temps où les deux hommes politiques se « regardaient en chien de faïence », « la guerre est un vieux souvenir », estime le journal indépendant. Le souvenir des victimes et des proches Or, les souvenirs des victimes et leurs proches, eux, sont toujours là. Certains donnent de la voix pour le rappeler. Issiaky Diaby, notamment, « a rué dans les brancards », souligne L'Inter. C'est le président du collectif des victimes en Côte d'Ivoire, et il a préféré tenir une cérémonie de recueillement au cimetière municipal de Williamsville, dans la commune d'Adjamé. Il voit cette rencontre au sommet comme un « épiphénomène », dit-il à L'Inter. « La réconciliation ne peut pas se résumer à la rencontre de deux citoyens », affirme-t-il. Issiaka Diaby souhaite que la question de l'indemnisation des victimes « soit de mise ». Le sort des victimes de cette crise interpelle d'ailleurs jusqu'au Sénégal. Là-bas, Walf estime que si les « deux vieux caïmans de la politique ivoirienne ont montré qu'ils ont fumé le calumet de la paix, la mort de trois mille Ivoiriens due à leur duel politique passe alors par pertes et profits. Laurent Gbagbo a été acquitté par la Cpi, après avoir croupi 10 ans en prison, de même que son ancien ministre, Charles Blé Goudé. Dans le camp du pouvoir, aucune poursuite judiciaire n'a été intentée contre un proche du président Alassane Ouattara. Donc, au finish, il n'y a aucun coupable désigné de cette crise de 2010-2011. Comme si tout était normal aux yeux de Ouattara et Gbagbo, déplore le journal sénégalais, alors que des familles de victimes pleurent toujours. » Conclusion de Walf : C'est donc visiblement cela aussi « le prix de la réconciliation », à savoir « le sacrifice » ! Les opposants togolais ciblés par Pegasus A lire dans la presse française. C'est Le Monde, membre du consortium de médias internationaux à l'origine des révélations sur le logiciel israélien qui nous le dit ce mercredi matin. Le journal consacre sa Une à la situation tunisienne et au « coup de force risqué de Kaïs Saïed », mais il révèle également en effet qu'au Togo, « les opposant sont surveillés comme des criminels ». À l'image d'un professeur en médecine rencontré par Le Monde et qui n'a pourtant rien, dit le quotidien, « du dangereux terroriste sahélien ni du mafieux international ». Au total, ce sont ainsi « plus de 300 numéros togolais qui apparaissent dans la liste des cibles potentielles du logiciel espion ». Parmi ces numéros, également « ceux de journalistes et de militants des droits de l'homme », affirme Le Monde qui souligne aussi la proximité entre Lomé et l'État israélien. Le Togo n'est pas le seul pays concerné et si Le Monde pointe le régime de Lomé, il pointe par ailleurs dans son édito le « laisser-faire coupable d'Israël ».

Celles de Clarisse Agbégnénou, en Une de Libération comme en Une de L'Equipe évidemment. Le Figaro préfère quant à lui nous montrer le sourire qui a suivi, et la médaille. « Agbégnénou, enfin sur l'Olympe », affiche pour sa part L'Humanité. « Quelle classe Clarisse ! », s'exclame Le Parisien, « elle l'attendait tant ce titre olympique », nous dit le journal. Et ce mardi 27 juillet, la judokate française de 28 ans « a obtenu sa revanche avec brio, face à la judokate slovène qui l'avait privée d'or à Rio », il y a cinq ans. Elle devient donc la nouvelle championne Olympique des -63kg, la dernière médaille qui manquait à son palmarès, souligne L'Équipe. Un message personnel de L'Équipe « Entre Clarisse Agbégnénou et L'Équipe, il y a toujours eu beaucoup d'amour, mais il fut parfois un peu vache », ironise d'emblée l'édito. Le quotidien sportif nous apprend que la judokate en voulait à la rédaction pour n'avoir pas consacré de Une à son cinquième titre mondial, décroché le mois dernier à Budapest. « Que faut-il que je fasse de plus pour qu'une de mes victoires soit en Une de votre journal ? », s'agaçait alors la sportive. Eh bien, « la réponse était simple », lui dit aujourd'hui L'Équipe. Ce qu'il fallait faire, c'est « ça » : « Triompher le jour J, comme judo, parachever un palmarès déjà éblouissant, passer de plus grande judoka de l'histoire à légende du sport français ». Voilà la réponse de L'Équipe, pas si simple finalement mais quant au bilan, ce n'est pas David Douillet qui dira le contraire. Interrogé par Le Parisien, l'ancien judoka, légende lui-aussi, affirme que Clarisse est « aujourd'hui la Marianne de la France ». « Elle n'a pas fait plaisir qu'à ses amis et ses proches, elle a fait plaisir à un pays tout entier » affirme-t-il. Une anecdote, qui fera sûrement plaisir à nombre de nos auditeurs également. Savez-vous ce qui motive la championne avant ses combats ? On l'a vue, hier, « casque sur les oreilles à côté des tatamis », alors Libération lui a posé la question. Elle écoute de l'Afro trap, répond Clarisse Agbégnénou. On sait que la championne est d'origine togolaise, alors l'Afro trap, voilà visiblement sa clé du succès. Et peut-être quelques heures d'entrainement au passage. La parité hommes-femmes enfin respectée Plus largement, cette victoire de la judokate est aussi l'occasion de noter que les JO accordent enfin une vraie place aux femmes. « Les femmes en forme Olympique ». À lire dans Libération encore : « Elles étaient 22 à Paris en 1900. Elles sont 5176 à Tokyo » cette année, « presque la moitié du contingent total des athlètes ». Oui ces jeux, ce sont « les premiers à accueillir quasiment autant de femmes que d'hommes », observe Libé, et « les nouvelles disciplines comportent toutes un programme féminin ». Polémique sur la sexualisation des tenues Or il reste tout de même du pain sur la planche, Libé le voit bien tout comme Le Monde : des polémiques sexistes demeurent, notamment sur les tenues genrées. La tenue des sportives, est-ce « un tissu de sexisme ? », s'interroge alors Le Monde. Le journal relaie le combat des gymnastes allemandes qui ont choisi de se produire « dans une combinaison intégrale plutôt que le justaucorps traditionnel ». Et avec elles, nous dit Le Monde, « de plus en plus de sportives se mobilisent ainsi contre la sexualisation de leur corps ». Sexualisation renforcée par « l'essor du sport-spectacle », explique le journal avec un exemple parlant à l'appui : « Une étude sur la manière de filmer le beach-volley aux JO de 2004 avait évalué à 37% la part des plans centrés sur la poitrine ou sur les fesses ». C'est plus d'un plan sur 3 ! Et si vous tentez d'échapper aux tenues sexy, ça peut parfois déboucher sur une amende infligée par les fédérations. Non, ça suffit, s'exclame la gymnaste allemande Elisabeth Seitz, toujours dans Le Monde « chaque femme, chaque personne devrait décider de ce qu'elle porte ». Cette année, les gymnastes allemandes ne sont pas parvenues à se qualifier pour la finale du concours olympique, espérons qu'à l'avenir elle gagne au moins ce combat-là.

Si sa, la cucina è una parte importante della cultura italiana e ci sono tantissimi stranieri in tutto il mondo che vogliono preparare ricette italiane a casa loro, perché i ristoranti italiani all'estero non sempre sono… davvero italiani... Molto spesso però le ricette sono disponibili solo in italiano, e questo può essere un ostacolo, perché anche chi ha un livello abbastanza avanzato di italiano non sempre conosce tutti i verbi presenti nelle ricette, quindi, tra una cosa e l'altra, deve fermarsi e cercare la parola sul vocabolario e vedere gli esempi più adatti al suo contesto, eccetera. In questa lezione vedremo tutti i verbi più importanti e comuni che troverete nelle ricette in lingua italiana! Pronti? Cominciamo subito e attenzione: potreste ritrovarvi con l'acquolina in bocca! I verbi della cucina CUCINARE vs CUOCERE Per prima cosa, voglio chiarire un dubbio di molti stranieri: qual è la differenza tra i verbi CUOCERE e CUCINARE? CUCINARE - si riferisce ai vari passaggi che si fanno per la preparazione di un piatto, quindi non solo la cottura in sé, ma anche tutto il resto delle azioni necessarie per il risultato finale. CUOCERE - si riferisce alla trasformazione del cibo da crudo a cotto, attraverso il processo di riscaldarlo con un fiamma o comunque del calore. E basta. Un'altra cosa interessante è che l'italiano non ha un verbo per quello che in inglese è “to bake”. Infatti, in italiano si dice CUOCERE AL FORNO. Perciò, se volete dire qualcosa come “I like baking”, sarebbe meglio se cambiaste la struttura della frase, e usaste qualcosa come “Mi piace preparare le torte”, “Mi piace preparare i dolci”, “Mi piace preparare piatti al forno” e così via… Eh già, lo so, non è molto bello… Nelle vostre lingue, invece, avete un verbo per “to bake”? Fatemelo sapere! Ora… proseguiamo! I verbi più utilizzati nelle ricette in italiano BOLLIRE - riscaldare fino a far formare bolle di vapore SBOLLENTARE - immergere per qualche minuto in acqua bollente senza farlo cuocere completamente CUOCERE AL VAPORE - metodo di cottura che evita il contatto diretto tra l'acqua e il cibo CUOCERE A BAGNOMARIA - metodo di cottura con cui si immerge un recipiente con il cibo in un altro più grande contenente dell'acqua calda o bollente LESSARE - cuocere un alimento immergendolo in acqua o brodo bollente GRIGLIARE - cuocere alla griglia (spesso con carboni ardenti) AFFUMICARE - esporre al fumo un alimento per conservarlo o dargli un sapore particolare FRIGGERE - metodo di cottura con cui si immerge un cibo in olio o altri grassi disciolti e bollenti SOFFRIGGERE - tenere un alimento in olio o burro per qualche minuto, finché raggiunge un colore dorato PELARE - eliminare la scorza di ortaggi con un coltello o uno strumento apposito AMALGAMARE - mescolare ingredienti diversi fino a ottenere un composto omogeneo AMMOLLARE - immergere e tenere un alimento in acqua o altro liquido per farlo ammorbidire APPASSIRE - far ammorbidire verdure ed ortaggi attraverso la cottura in padella con olio o burro, a fuoco molto basso e con il coperchio, senza che perdano il loro colore ARROSTIRE - cuocere la carne, il pesce o altri cibi al forno, allo spiedo o alla griglia, senza l'aggiunta di acqua BRASARE - far cuocere un alimento a fuoco lento in una casseruola ermeticamente chiusa con poco liquido DORARE - 1) far cuocere un cibo nel condimento in modo da fargli assumere una colorazione biondo-oro - 2) spennellare con un tuorlo d'uovo la superficie di un impasto prima di infornarlo IMBIONDIRE - tenere in olio o burro per qualche minuto a fuoco alto verdure tritate, finché assumono una colorazione chiara, dorata (“bionda”) ROSOLARE - far colorare gli alimenti in olio o burro a fuoco basso SCOTTARE - far cuocere leggermente da tutte le parti un alimento (soprattutto carne o pesce) su una superficie ben calda della padella, del tegame, della griglia od in acqua bollente,
« Le pass sanitaire s'impose dans la douleur », titrent Les Échos. Il « s'impose malgré les réticences », précise la Une du Figaro. « Après une semaine de débats d'une grande intensité, peut-on lire, députés et sénateurs réunis en commission mixte paritaire ont adopté le projet de loi amendé par Les Républicains. » Le Figaro parle d'un « suspens jusqu'au bout », et « d'échanges très vifs » dimanche encore entre les sept sénateurs et les sept députés de la Commission, mais le texte instaurant le passe sanitaire a donc finalement été définitivement adopté. « Au Conseil constitutionnel de jouer désormais son rôle de juge de paix », conclut Le Figaro. Des manifestants de plus en plus nombreux N'en déplaise aux manifestants, pourtant de plus en plus nombreux : « Plus de 160 000 personnes ont défilé samedi dans toute la France ». « C'est beaucoup, nous dit Libération, un tiers de plus que le samedi précédent. Et ce qui frappe Libé comme les autres journaux, c'est l'aspect « hétéroclite » des cortèges. « Des antivax purs et durs, complotistes ou extrémistes, souvent les deux. Des anti-pass raisonnables mais soucieux de préserver une liberté à leurs yeux trop malmenée. Et aussi des gilets jaunes radicalement anti-Macron » C'est certain, cette mobilisation est déjà « furieusement protestataire » mais elle est surtout « protéiforme », nous dit également La Croix : « Les défilés comptent à l'évidence nombre de personnes de bonne foi […], analyse le quotidien catholique, mais ils drainent aussi un pur concentré de mécontentements dans une solution mêlant complotisme et manie de la persécution. » Une mobilisation qui affiche des dérives Une mobilisation furieusement protestataire mais aussi, parfois, furieusement limite. Il y a des travers et des dérives. « Comme la semaine dernière, on a encore vu samedi, des références aussi absurdes que honteuses à la traque des juifs pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale », déplore La Croix. « Comme l'Italie – où l'on a manifesté aussi samedi, la France serait devenue "une dictature", voire un régime nazi. On a même entraperçu, s'étonne La Croix, une pancarte suggérant que plutôt d'adopter le pass sanitaire, il vaudrait mieux demander l'asile politique en Corée du Nord ». Rien que ça ! Alors, « chiche », ironise le journal. Des travers à éviter également pour le gouvernement C'est l'édito du Figaro qui met en garde. « Le gouvernement a beau jeu de renvoyer les protestataires dans le camp des complotistes et des simples d'esprit. Il a tôt fait de jeter les réticences des anti-passe dans la grande soupe des antivax et il joue désormais de toutes les cordes sensibles », arguant d'un « retour à la vie normale » avec ce passe. « Soit, poursuit Le Figaro, mais il est inutile cependant d'habiller ce pass de vertus qu'il ne possède pas. Nul ne voit venir ce nouvel avatar du coronavirus de gaieté de cœur. Le pass sanitaire n'est évidemment pas "la vie normale", estime encore Le Figaro, mais plutôt, à nouveau cet impensable d'hier devenu raison d'aujourd'hui. » Et pendant ce temps, la vaccination… « Si 160 000 Français ont défilé samedi, pointe Libération, ils étaient, le même jour, deux fois plus nombreux à se déplacer pour recevoir leur première dose. Le cap des 40 millions de primo-vaccinés sera franchi ce lundi », développe Libération. Mais il reste du pain sur la planche et L'Humanité, qui s'inquiète aujourd'hui de la quatrième vague provoquée par le variant Delta et d'une possible saturation des hôpitaux en août, rappelle également que « l'accélération de la vaccination ne dépend pas que de la bonne volonté des citoyens ». L'Humanité renvoie alors vers une étude « passionnante » publiée ce lundi par Le Monde. Une étude qui « révèle sans surprise l'ampleur des inégalités vaccinales » sur le territoire national, « morcelé » comme d'habitude entre « centres urbains au-dessus de la moyenne » et « périphéries ». « Sans parler bien évidemment du gouffre qui sépare les quartiers populaires et les communes riches de nos métropoles ». En somme, Le Monde et L'Humanité dressent une fois de plus le portrait d'une France « malade de ses fractures sociales ». Et pendant ce temps, les banques européennes... Elles veulent « tourner la page de la crise sanitaire », nous disent Les Échos, avec ici en revanche « comme un air de retour à la normale ». Eh oui, on n'est pas tous logés à la même enseigne. « À partir du quatrième semestre, le secteur bancaire pourra reprendre sans contraintes ses versements de dividendes », rapporte le journal économique. « Alors que l'économie paraît déjà moins gênée par la crise sanitaire que l'an dernier », les banques de la zone euro commencent cette semaine à publier leurs résultats trimestriels et seront dont « très attendues », expliquent Les Échos… Deutsche Bank mercredi, BNP Paribas et Unicrédit en fin de semaine. On a vraiment hâte !

Welcome to episode #67!This week, Matt and Braden bust myths about blue balls and wet dreams. Tune in to hear yet another episode about things you've probably never heard talked about in public. Blue balls are real - but not nearly as common or bad as men claimThis is the definition of blue balls from healthline.com:"Blue balls, known medically as epididymal hypertension (EH), is a condition that can affect people with male genitals. It's not serious, but causes pain and aching in the testicles after having an erection without an orgasm."Is this real? Yes. Is it life threatening for every man? No. Typically, a man can distract himself for 5-15 minutes, go to the washroom, and take deep breaths to make an erection go away. When he does this, the physical tension that is built up will disappear and he'll feel completely normal physically. There might be emotional disappointment that he has to deal with about not having an orgasm, so he'll have to deal with that if it's there.Blue balls should never be used as manipulation for sex in a marriage!Wet dreams don't stop at 20We're told that only teenagers get wet dreams, but lots of teens don't even get them because they masturbate from a young age. When people start conquering their addiction, even as adults, wet dreams will commonly start happening because God designed the male body to release the semen in this way periodically.In the episode, the guys expand on what to do if you have shame around wet dreams or if you're a wife and are ashamed that your husband is getting them. You're not alone if this is the case. Seek understanding and don't allow shame to fill your thought life!Don't be a victimBlue balls and the visual dreams that come with wet dreams can seem overwhelming in the moment, but they are in fact only momentary. Don't be a victim to either because then you're saying that it's God's fault that you're in sin or it's your wife's fault that you're turning to other outlets. Learn to conquer both blue balls and the thoughts of fantasy that can associate wet dreams.

We started podcasting exactly 12 months ago in the midst of the pandemic, but finally, FINALLY, we have, FOR THE FIRST TIME, a review of not a years-old classic but a BRAND NEW RELEASE, in theaters, RIGHT NOW, in July 2021. This week we review the 24th MCU film, "BLACK WIDOW." And... Eh, it's okay. We discuss the overall feel of the movie, its value & placement within the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the experience of being back in the theater for the first time in 1.5 years. Grab your tight-fitting leather uniform, guns, electroshock batons, Widow's Bite, and vest of many pockets, as we strike a showy fighting pose with...Black Widow. Note: Because we wanted to keep this review spoiler-free, and full disclosure, it was one of three episodes we recorded in one night, this review is brief and not our usual deep dive. *But*, if you'd like us to take a deeper dive and/or spoiler-filled approach on this movie, or have feedback about any other topics, you can contact us at...

Aquí en México es la única empresa que le hace frente a la compañía de mi tío, pero tienen presencia en toda Latinoamérica. Es una competencia feroz. —Entonces ¿por qué te escriben? —dijo Xavi. Yo dudé. No me había dado cuenta de algo importante: Lolo estaba ahí, al lado mío. El sobrino de José Luis Flores, el fundador de Aventuras Viajeras. No era una situación cómoda. —Eh… —dije—. Me están ofreciendo trabajo. Bueno, más bien quieren entrevistarme primero. Todavía no están del todo decididos. —¿Neta? —preguntó Lolo. —¿Qué tipo de trabajo? —preguntó Xavi. —Uno muy bueno —respondí—. Quieren que conduzca una serie web de viajes por Latinoamérica.

Todas las semanas conversamos con venezolanos que viven fuera de Venezuela, para que nos cuenten sus historias migratorias (sus procesos de adaptación, sus experiencias laborales y sus consejos para los próximos migrantes). Cada entrevista que hacemos es en una ciudad diferente del mundo. Nos puedes encontrar todos los martes en www.lostrabajosylosdias.com, y las principales aplicaciones de podcast, a partir de las 7:00 a.m. (Toronto).RSS Feed: https://feeds.transistor.fm/los-trabajos-y-los-dias///Transcripción (por corregir)ttdd-103RLM: Hoy es 6 de julio de 2021, es el episodio 103 de los trabajos y los días 7 de la mañana en Toronto y continuábamos la segunda serie sobre los emprendedores con Angélica Pedrol, en la ciudad de Bogotá, en Colombia. Angélica, bienvenida a los trabajos y los días, muchas gracias por aceptar nuestra invitación. AP: No, René. Gracias a ti por la invitación, por bueno tomarlos en cuenta. Por aparecer en el camino de trabajos de ese día y bueno, poder contar un poquito de nuestra historia y poder inspirar a más emprendedores. RLM: Angélica Yo entiendo que tú tienes aproximadamente tres años viviendo en Colombia. Qué fue lo primero que pasó por tu mente? El día que llegaste a Bogotá, sabiendo que ya llegaste ahí para vivir? AP: Bueno. Eh, es una pregunta que te da vuelta, eh? Porque una de las cosas o la primera que me pasó en ese momento que puse la frontera, eh? Fue pasarme un con su ejército y decir Angélica a comenzar. Pero no era comenzar de cero del todo, era comenzar. Desde la experiencia que me dejó me estaba dejando mi pa'i, eh? Aún así, yo iba a regresar en tres meses que llevo tres años. Bueno, eran porque. Porque eso era lo que tenía en mente en ese momento. Pero lo que iba a recibir Colombia o por lo menos Bogotá, era una mujer, pues es una mujer soñadora la que en el momento pisa esta ciudad y totalmente fría. Y ver qué? Que cada persona era algo un poco más lineal en su vestuario e un poco más clásica, tal vez un poco más frías en cierto modo. Puedo decir que no todas, pero sí en su mayoría. Pero fue lo primero que pasó por mi mente pasar de un swinger a decir Angélica, que nadie te conoce. Hay que comenzar, pero no es cero. Y bueno, de ahí partieron muchas respuestas, muchísimas Ren. RLM: Bueno, Angélica. Y hay algo que tú y yo comentamos previamente. Yo lo he conversado en otros episodios de este podcast, en entrevistas que me han hecho a mí. La razón por la que nació, Los trabajos y los días es que hace aproximadamente tres años yo dejé acá de Toronto. Veían las noticias, una cantidad de venezolanos viajando de Venezuela hacia Colombia, Ecuador, Perú, etcétera, en autobús. Y yo entiendo que tú, tú llegaste pues en ese grupo de gente que yo vi en la noticia y muchísimas personas con buenas intenciones, con neutras malas intenciones, no sé, e hicieron mucho esfuerzo en presentar esa situación como problema regional, como fuiste tú recibida en Colombia. Cómo fue esa situación que te lleva a ti a convertirte en emprendedor? AP: Bueno, la experiencia primero de tomar la decisión de irme en autobús Renes fue porque tenía que traerme mi segunda mano, que eran máquinas de coser. E iba a emigrar bajo un concepto al que todos llamamos emigrar, pero no era en base a pensar que yo me iba de vacaciones. No lo viví en ese punto de vista. Nunca lo había hecho. Nunca viví en otro país y en ningún momento simplemente era de vacas benignos ver el concepto como tal y que lo que era envidia y pasar ese viaje de tres días en bus. Gracias a Dios nos protegió zonas problemático e pasamos sin problema. Yo iba acompañada del esposo de mi amiga Kim residiendo acá en Bogotá. Y pues cuando llegamos me di cuenta que Angélica era una mujer. Era una mujer aguerrida. En mi casa había un concepto de Angelika muy, muy mujer, muy, muy digámosles, muy delicada, muy sensible. Y no se imaginaron que yo podía dar ese paso. Cuestón marinadas alucinaron que yo voy a viajar en avión. Pues como todo el mundo, pero yo no voy a dejar máquinas de coser y nagyon en un maleta. Entonces dije vamos siempre, pues me he considerado una persona que va a lo que va. Y creo no me detuvo, no me tuó absolutamente nada, sino las ganas de emprender. Y mi emprendimiento surge en Venezuela, como ya te había comentado. Pero esas ganas de emprender en otras fronteras, en otro país, en otra ciudad, era esa misión, esa visión de cincho. Quiero más, yo quiero crecer, yo quiero llegar a otros lugares. Yo quiero que Angélica Padrón sea una marca que no me importa cuánto me demore. No lo sé porque no sé cuánto me voy a demorar emprendiendo en otros viajes partiendo de una vida. Emigrar, eh? Me dije vamos a darle, porque si no lo intento o no sé o no lo experimento, no va a saber de qué se trata esto. Y así pues. RLM: Perfecto, entonces estás allí, estás tú, estás trabajando en eso y para beneficio nuestra audiencia para contexto, eres diseñadora de moda y es un oficio que comenzaste en Venezuela, en eso te formaste y hizo, ya trabajaba. De hecho, cuando me miraste te llevaste tus máquinas de coser y tus equipos, como lo llamas tu segunda mano. AP: Si. RLM: Cómo fue comenzar en Colombia que te conseguiste diferente en el público, en la forma de vestir, en la moda, como cómo fue? AP: Bueno, comenzá, como te dije al principio, me tuve que pasar un switching a decir Angélica, que nadie conoce a su peque haceralgo primir Forth, pero un año con mis màquina me venia con digámonos con capital pero no muy muy grande porque era por tres meses y ya empezaban a exigir el lo que le llamamos la vida en la bimbo, la KRUMITZ a tus cosas personales para tu de conda porque bueno yo venia a mi cargo y a las manos de Dios asi a veces era un poco crudo, pero eh, muchas veces digamos no de una forma. Si las personas que te reciben son Angelelli, es un apoyo, un trampolín, pero no quiere decir que tu vas a ser un peso para sus vidas cuando ya tienen un día a día, una forma, una planificación y a mí me tocó, siempre me ha tocado y me identifico como una mujer muy independiente. Este generar, seguir generando, porque ese recurso se me iba a agotar en algún punto y tenía que empezar a ser relacionarme con otras personas y veía que muchas personas estaban trabajando en Restaurant Vito Общества y bueno, metí lo que le llaman acá en Bogotá o en Colombia, la hoja de vida y pues me aceptaron primera vez en mi vida y llegué al restaurante primera de mi vida que ya había servido mesas o ha a una clientela en esa categoría, pero me lo disfruté y me hizo interactuar con otras personas. AP: Algo muy cómico era que no es aprovechar el tiempo, sino de salir del restaurante, empezado a ver otras tiendas, lo que me llamaban el centro. E Yo hice todo lo opuesto a lo que pude haber hecho en Venezuela, la verdad, todo lo opuesto, ya que esta experiencia, este viaje, me enseñó a experimentar todo lo opuesto que había hecho en Venezuela como emprendedora y llegué a ser clientela como de negocios muy informales, pero que tenían diseños y una una proyección muy bonita de crecimiento. Y así comencé a nuevamente generar recursos y enfocarme en mente. Angélica Pedro porque era algo que me pasaba, trabajaba para alguien y yo decía no, no puedo. Hay algo que me llama a seguir enfocada en mi proyecto, así que vamos a hablar. Y así empecé. Así empecé. Reni del restaurante Haplin de. RLM: Déjame entender una cosa angélica sobre el restaurante. Entraste al restaurante? Es algo que no habías hecho antes. No tiene nada que ver con tu profesión, con tu Bobobo, tu emprendimiento que ya tenías en Venezuela. Bueno, como como te adaptaste? Como fue? Cuáles fueron las ficultad que te conseguiste haciendo? AP: Bueno, mira, me acosté pensando en la empatía de esas personas que también se lían, a mí me sirven a mí en un restaurante. Y yo pues eso, por lo que es este sitio que me pasé, que dije bueno, vamos a darle una experiencia, parte del proceso de parte del storia y a de mi historia, de lo que yo estoy viendo como Angélica Pedro, tanto como persona como Mark. E Fue muy bonito porque nosotros, los venezolanos o los venezolanos somos muy alegre y este es algo que muchas veces acá, al menos en Bogotá, es algo que impacta porque somos muy de sueños. Decimos buenos días a cada rato. Muchas gracias, gracias, gracias. Qué bueno! Cuando yo atendía a los clientes era eso, era lo primero con lo que yo me presentaba con una sonrisa y enseguida me identificaban. Eres venezolano? Yo sí me hago propinas, cosa que yo no quería ni nada. Y era cómico porque la chica del restaurante se preguntaban por qué a ella le dan propina y a nosotras no, y yo lo único que le dije es no, no vayan a armar un conflicto, un dilema, simplemente sonrían, se haga Sean Bublé, muestren la parte agradable del ser humano y ahí, ahí viene la magia. O sea, y la magia incluso mucho del año que nos atiende la venezolana no nos de la isla y eso me ha mucha risa. En cierta forma me llenaba porque? Porque esa parte humana es la que te abren las puertas, esa parte humana o esa parte sensible de nosotros, la que nos abre las puertas. También encontré que en una oportunidad ni tocó la hora del almuerzo y entró una señora y estaban dando la noticia de los venezolanos. AP: Y aquí? Se escuchaba mucho el rumor de que los venezolanos vinieron a robarle el trabajo a los bolivianos de no sé qué porque se regala, se pagan muy económico, cosa que no pasaba la ex eran nuestras ganas de Chile Pichón, como lo llamamos nosotros y cerdada. En ese momento estaba un señor almorzando y le hice disculpe que nadie sabía que yo era venezolano, o sea Gnaghi, ese momento cuando sale este tema a. Desde? Cómo que belleza dejan de bregar? La señora sale un señor y dice disculpame que le creen, pero con lo que te estoy diciendo. Pero nosotros también nos presentamos en Venezuela de una forma muy fuerte y ellos abrieron la puerta y también pasó lo positivo y lo negativo. Sí, para, es que no es que ellos vinieron a esto, era más desempleo y ya que era golpista sale a defender. Le dice ella es venezolana y ella vino acá con una profesión, pero tiene que arrancar de algo y no viene a quitarle el trabajo a nadie, es trabajar y yo como que wahoo. Y yo no señora, mire, somos seres humanos, todo en el planeta nos llamamos seres humanos y hacemos lo mismo. Entonces porque seamos de otros países no podemos generar esta, esta división o общества. Este le era yo le dije fue como esta discordia entre nosotros mismo, porque nosotros no nos obligaron o nos están dando una invitación a pasar unas vacaciones en Colombia y en cualquier parte del mundo. Es que la situación nos llevó a esto y como joven creemos aspirar cosa mejor desde Bannen. Esas fueron parte del cositas que se me presentaron en el camino en un autobús en Ovoide Bahts. RLM: Y déjame entender una cosa. Cuánto tiempo trabajaste entonces en el restaurant? AP: 4 mis 4000000. RLM: Cuatro meses y después de esos cuatro meses, qué pasó? AP: Empecé a participar en ferias en donde pues por cosas de Dios no pagaban ni un peso colombiano. Me invitaban y este me iba súper bien en esa feria en donde yo me traje muchos diseños de Venezuela, principalmente una pieza que le llamamos como muy conocido jugger que se usa para Yogo de todo eso, pero bueno, pero lo convertimos en una pieza versátil que se puede usar en diferentes ocasión y con eso tapamos a varia clientela. Entonces bueno, mis primeros dos meses acá gracias a Dios e bueno, mis primeros dos meses fueron los pasé por una feria donde me mantuve. Entré al restaurante después de este restaurante los dos meses siguientes con sus patrones y los meses siguientes me superbién y de ahí empecé a Desdiga. Empecé a despegar caminando más que no, bueno, no te puedes ir caminando porque usamos el Transmilenio, pero digo caminando en un sentido figurativo de que no sabía que estaba por Bogotá y que llegué a lugares de Bogotá, que no imaginaba que esa búsqueda me llevó a muchos lugares. RLM: Quiero preguntarte sobre cómo te decidiste a tomar la transición, pero antes de eso daros un poquito de contexto para los que nunca hemos estado en Bogotá. Y entiendo que la recorriste bastante, las recorrió. Cómo es Bogotá? Cómo se vive en Bogotá? AP: Es una ciudad muy linda, muy linda, muy organizada, puede tener sus cuotas, sus pros y sus contras. En referente pasa lo que nos. Hay partes seguras, no tan seguras. Es una ciudad de encuentros, personas cálida pero muy fría también en donde un buenas tardes puede convertirse en un silencio total y rotundo. Un buenos días tal vez. Подробнее Exista, eh? El adulto mayor es, digamos, obviamente desde lo que nos enseñan en casa a respetar. Pero es un poco vulnerable. E tal vez por su forma de crianza, de vivir en en. Cuando te presentas como venezolano, por simplemente tu acento e. Hay un. Como un impacto. Como que Anguila es venezolana o es venezolano. Entonces. Como un. Un rechazo. Yo no quiero usar la palabra que siempre se usa en este término. E xenofóbico, digámoslo así. Pero si un rechazo, eh? También hay lugares en donde te reciben con los brazos abiertos como partes en alrededor de Bogotá, que en su valle son personas sumamente humanas que te dan una confianza increíble. Justamente con una ellas trabajo en Ren Alianza e iré más, osea ahí de todo. Yo pienso que tanto en Bogotá como en el mundo hay de todo, pero es una ciudad hermosa para recorrerla. Es preciosa. RLM: Cómo es el clima? Como en geografía. AP: Es frío, frío. Boda está, eh? Exactamente no sé cuántos pies del mar, pero estás en Long al alto altísimo, allez, le llaman la nevera. Con eso te digo todo. RLM: O sea, es frío comparado con Caracas, por ejemplo, AP: No más. RLM: Y más frío. AP: Matería. RLM: Muy bien. Y plano es montaña, como AP: Es RLM: Comeis? AP: Montañas, mucha montaña, mucha montaña. Bogotá está en la cima de una montaña realmente. RLM: Entonces tú llegaste trabajando en un restaurante, en una ciudad que a nivel social y tiene una estructura, por lo que te escucho más bien rígida y donde hay gente muy buena, muy decente, también hay gente que puede tener cierto rechazo con Convert y un venezolano bien estratificada, según he escuchado decir. Pero un día dijiste ya pasaron estos meses, llegó a ser mi transición. Vuelvo a mi emprendimiento y hacer autoplay, lo cual implica también desprenderte de tu salario fijo, que más que evidente gana Haugen en tu restaurante, en un país donde no tienes a nadie. Como llegas tú a esa decisión que te hizo sentir que tenía la seguridad necesaria para hacerlo? AP: Porque bueno, ya me había relacionado con varias personas jóvenes como yo, amigos, ángeles, bueno, del bajo todos esos nombres, porque esos por lo que ellos se convirtieron en ese momento, eh? Entré a un taller de diseño, la hice de una diseñadora de moda en el área de bordado y eso me permitía dedicarme a mi marca en la mañana y trabajar en su taller de diseño en la tarde. Pero ya había, ya estaba haciendo contacto con personas, ya estaba creando como un contacto directo con ciertas cliente. Eso sí, voy a resaltar y las personas que han llegado a Angélica, pero sí hay personas que me han abierto los brazos y no han hecho parte de ellas y se han convertido en clientes fieles de nosotros y puestas sin buscarlas simplemente. Así nos puso Dios la vida. Y esa forma todo se fue, se fue desplegando. Trabajé en ese taller próximamente como dos meses. Pues es que es muy complicado para el que es emprendedor desde el principio e independiente. Entonces eres tu propio jefe, eres tu propia todo, prácticamente todo. Y se me hacía muy difícil estar al mando de alguien, y más cuando tú temas de documentos está ciertamente a la mitad, pero este tienes un permiso, pero el simple hecho de ser extranjera, entonces no se te da el valor de tus horarios, de tu boca, de tu pagos, de tu salario. AP: Simplifico entonces. E decía eso chocaba mucho conmigo y decía no, no, no, no, no, yo no, no, no me dejes a mí algo en mis manos, yo tengo que seguir, pues al poco tiempo del 2018 ya creo que en febrero. Eh? Pues conozco a quien es actualmente mi esposo y las cosas se dieron de una forma tan bonita, tan digamos, tan rápida que pues apoyo y gente linda me arropó, perono Wawrinka un paso en esta historia. Y es que cuando yo llegué acá yo llego a la casa de mi, a mi amiga, pero mi blog es una familia costeña de Valledupar, prácticamente me adopta, me abrieron sus brazos, me dejaron esta estadía en su casa a donde yo no pagaba, riendonos, pagado comida, no pagaban nada porque ellos querían, era que John de Saras estabilizara, fueron ángeles en mi camino larga. Entonces así sucedió, así ha pasado. RLM: Hoy por hoy, tú no eres en a nadie. Eres tu propia jefa. Tienes tu compañía. Tú me contabas más temprano. Tú eres una compañía de una sola empleada. Quieres tú? AP: Matia. RLM: Lo cual quiere decir que el día que tú te enfermas no viene absolutamente nadie a trabajar a la compañía. El día que tú descansa no viene nadie a trabajar a la compañía. El día que tú no sales a vender, pues no hubo departamento de ventas. Tú, el día que tú no produce nuevo producción, el día que tú no haces algo, no lo hace nadie. Cómo haces tú para darte vacaciones? Cómo te has tenido días libres? Cómo te fijas el sueldo? Cómo? Cómo te tratas tú a ti misma como empleada? AP: Me organizo Ren. Eso es lo que me ha enseñado de eso. Ser la multi multifacética de Angélica. Pero me ha enseñado a organizarme en viaje, producción en días de descanso e trato de trabajar de lunes a viernes, sábado en la tarde y ya. Yo trato de dejar los domingos para mí. Si llega alguna información, la manejamos, pero todo el trabajo en la semana. Pues cuando me encuentro indispuesta te digo algo. Sólo le hablo a mi mente y amo tanto lo que hago que para. Para Angélica pues no existe. No existe eso. La hinduísmo tiene que ser algo muy, muy grave, muy grave, muy fuerte para que eso pase. Pero del resto, eh? Si me entrego de lleno a mi trabajo e amo lo que hago muchísimo es sueño. Si, como te comentaba e sueño con un equipo que se va a construir, que se va a solidificar, que se va a crear y ese equipo van a ser mujeres, cabezas de hogar. Estoy trabajando para eso y bueno, en el nombre de Dios, cuando él lo indique, así va a ser. RLM: Angélica lo el principal desafío hasta ahora para ti de vivir en Colombia. AP: El principal desafío tener a mi familia en Venezuela Instal de Alpi. Eso es lo más desafiante en todos los días, porque siempre he sido muy familiar, enriquecido y de mi casa. Es primera vez que Angélica sale Centollo. Salgo exactamente a los 30 de mi casa, siendo muy independiente, porque estaba, vivía con mis padres, pero muy independiente, eh? Pero es ese como le llamamos, ese destete de tu hogar, el desprenderte, el niñito de la gallinita, del gallito, del pollito, de la pollita que es tu hermana. Este me ha costado, me ha costado mucho más por el monto, el tiempo que vivimos hoy de pandemia de la incertidumbre. Obviamente cree, confía, creyendo en Dios plenamente, que esto va a pasar y que bajo su recuerdo, pues nada llega a nosotros. No, pero ese ha sido mi desafío, el Macca. RLM: Y me está tocando un tema muy interesante que es la la pandemia. Y te cuento de que la pandemia empezó. Yo, por ejemplo, estoy trabajando desde casa, prácticamente no he comprado ropa como ese. Entonces, para una diseñadora de moda autoempleo, como ha sido para ti precisamente vender ropa durante la pandemia. AP: Bueno, literalmente como la montaña rusa. Así lo voy a describir desde lo más alto. Pueden ir el pico más alto y de repente la bajada más fuerte. Pero algo que me mantenía mietras de mi sueño y de este proyecto es que creo en él, creo en lo que hago. Cuando comiencen la pandemia empezó el tema mal tapabocas Angelika Pedroni. Decidí hacer tapabocas, pero no era para vender, sino para obsequiar. Después la teoría me cambia porque me empezaron a pedir tapabocas. Entonces las empecé. Empecé a investigar sobre las telas, la cuestión. Todo esto que pasó con el permiso que pasé resistente, que fuese anti cluidos, que no pasara nada, uido, blablabla. Me fue muy bien. La verdad que el 2020, para mí un año muy bueno. Salieron pedidos, salieron clientas por mayor y todo, y la verdad que fue maravilloso. Siempre viene un una coma como un vacío. Pero creo que es normal en todas las empresas grandes o pequeños micros como nosotros este. Pero pues nunca me falla. Nunca nos falta el trabajo. Cuando yo digo no, es que yo no hablo por Angélica, pero es que yo hablo porque yo hablo a mis mil versiones, mis mil versiones. Entonces nunca nos falta, nunca nos falta trabajo, nunca nos faltan pedidos, nunca nos faltan clientes que están interesadas. Me ha tocado desarrollar cha paciencia, Reni, mucha calma y entender que parte del proceso, gracias a Dios cuento con el respaldo de mi esposo. Este bueno, a mi le voy dando, remando, remando, remando. RLM: Y yo estoy pensando en una cosa tuya, gastase más o menos tres años, tenías cuatro meses en el restaurante, fuiste haciendo la transición. Quiere decir que llevamos año y medio de pandemia. Casi todo tu trabajo independiente ha sido durante pandemia entonces. AP: Sí, sí, exactamente. Exactamente. Es que es Kenshi. Aun si fuera un fragmento fragmentos de trabajo en el taller. Luego, cuando conocí a Boso, ellos tenían una como la empresa de distribución. Trabajé ahí en telemarketing, recibiendo llamadas. Mi cosa estaba de la mano con mi marca. Luego de ese espacio me vuelvo a dedicar de lleno a la marca. entrarÃn AM a feria a seguir en exposiciones. Este al por mayor rindiéndole unidades especiales como tal, enviando porque aún así, con todo y este desbarajuste de cosas que llaman Harajuku planeaciones ajuste son procesos que son claves en nuestro desarrollo. Cuando llega la pandemia, nosotros estábamos en el punto de hacer ya la parte exportación de jarabe a Miami, Perú, Argentina y bueno, todo se nos preñó y este año lo pudimos hacer. Hicimos nuestra primera prueba piloto Perú este viernes y aquí a México Freiburg. Hoy vamos. Ahí va. Siempre digo que. Que todo lo de empresa. Mira, yo le hablo mucho a mis clientas y hay un espacio en el que Angélica está desarrollando, que es la diseñadora. Quería hablar porque detrás de una marca hay alguien que tiene muchas cosas que contar. En este caso soy yo. Y es que. El emprendedor que piense que se las va a ganar todas en el primer año. Yo creo que mejor quien lo intente queda lustrar. Va a llorarlo a deja todo ahí a la borda. Entonces, a mí todo esto me enseñó a recopilar un contenido tan bonito que lo compartí en. En febrero de este año, en un foro de la Asociación Gremial de Asesores de Imagen de Chile, en donde compartimos nuestra experiencia como emprendedora como Maik. Y era eso si nosotros como emprendedores pensamos que el primer año, el segundo año, a saber el buga fangoso, mejor ni lo intentemos derra. RLM: Es muy difícil. Yo me imagino que es hasta imposible diseñar para un país, para una, para un gentilicio, si no se conoce de sus costumbres, su forma de ser, su forma de pensar. Tú tienes que entender como es la dinámica de una sociedad. Si vas a diseñar para ella. Y si bien Colombia y Venezuela tienen muchas diferencias, también son como hermanas mellizas, como hermanas, morocha, alguna manera el país más parecido que podemos conseguir a Venezuela forzosamente Colombia. Cuál ha sido la. La tradición, la costumbre, la idiosincrasia que más te ha llamado la atención o que más te ha impresionado? Pie Colón. AP: Mira, hoy dijiste algo que son muy, muy hermanas, casi que mellizos. Pero si son muy difere, muy être. Son muy diferentes muchas cosas, y más aún cuando un segmentados por ciudades, por lo menos no es Barranquilla. Barranquilla es lo que se aproxima más al valenciano, el caraqueño. Es lo que más se le aproxima al trato. Sí, calor humano está esa parte, expongamos. Bogotá es un pueblo muy opuesto, tanto así que tanto Bogotá y Barranquilla, pues hay como que hubo un choque, hay, un choque hay. Pero esa es esa diferencia. O es que me menciona? Y mira, yo creo que yo creo que hasta el cielo a la tierra somos muy penín hasta en la comida. Dicen que la arepa es colombiana. Nosotros decimos que es buena. Yo sigo diciendo que el venezolano no cree que la come motto Ren distinta. Pero algo que sí he notado de toda esta esta ola en migratoria y es que los países adoptan de nosotros cosas muy importantes como nuestra cultura de la comida. Los platos típicos causan curiosidad, el pan de jamón, la arepa, la hallaca e aquí venden lo que es el bueno. Barranquilla es el pastel. Aquí en Bogotá el tamal desenvuelven una hoja de plátano. Es con la masa y todo, pero la preparación es distinta e. Yo, yo, yo siento que esto ha dejado algo muy positivo, en cierta forma ha dejado algo muy positivo, muy positivo. RLM: Los paises adoptan de nosotros muchas cosas, pero nosotros cambian de los países que son nuestros anfitriones, que ha adoptado tu Colombia. AP: Qué apoyo de ex novias! Sabes que me ha gustado a mí Colombia es la persistencia, el trabajo. Y son muy, muy metódicos al realizar un proyecto. A mí como marca me han dejado hacer pulcra en cada detalle, a perfeccionar, a entregar algo perfecto, algo bien presentado, algo bien empacado, algo que cuando la cliente colombiana lo reciba diga Wow, esta chica trabaja con ganas, trabaja bien. Eso es lo que me ha enseñado a mí, eh? Esta parte de lo que me lo tenía impregnado, digámoslo así, más allá de enseñarme, tenía impregnado a ser muy perfeccionista, muy detallista, mucho. Belding. RLM: Bueno, Angélica, pero en Bogotá llegaste hace tres años a Colombia. Te has empeñado no solamente en no ser un problema para el país, sino en ser una ciudadana ejemplar, una ciudadana que crea su propio empleo, que crea movimiento económico, que está buscando exportar. Si en este momento te está escuchando una persona, a lo mejor va en el autobús camino a Colombia o está pensando hacer el mismo viaje que tú. Qué te gustaría decirle? AP: Que lo haga con la mayor seguridad. Que no importa los baches del camino porque se van a presentar a que vayas en avión o en barco, en un buen carro, en lo que sea, pero hay que hacerlo. Y más cuando las señales se te presentan en el camino. Yo pienso que los sueños son el impulso para nosotros ir tras ellos y no tenga sueño. Yo pienso que está muerto en vida, porque lo que nos mueven y eso, los sueños, las ganas de hacer las ganas, siempre y cuando e. Estos sueños juegan con el enfoque de beneficiar a otros, de beneficiar a la humanidad y aportarle al mundo. Y eso es lo que yo le diría a una persona que te ama. Que paso de emigrar. Si quieres cosas mejores, pues hay que arriesgarse por esas cosas mejor. Siempre y cuando sea de la forma correcta, de la forma legal, de la forma honesta. Siempre hay que arriesgarse. Qiang. RLM: Angelika Casi cierro esta entrevista y no te hago una pregunta importantísima cómo te seguimos en redes sociales? Cómo te encontramos? Cómo vemos tu trabajo? AP: Claro que sí, bueno, puede contar en Instagram como @angelicapedron pegado @angelicapedron, y en Facebook de la misma forma. Allí van a ver todo en este trabajo, toda realmente nuestras redes sociales son nuestra vitrina en esta tienda virtual en donde mostramos todo. Es una marca enfocada a inspirar a la mujer, a sentirse única y merecedora de que puede ser bella, independientemente del tipo de cuerpo, la estatura, el color de piel. Mi helicÃptero es una marca que gusta vestir a millones de mujeres en el mundo. Con el favor de Dios.

This weekly show features conversations with people doing interesting work in the world of Cloud, thoughtful commentary on the state of the technical world, and ridiculous titles for which Corey refuses to apologize. This is Screaming in the Cloud.Corey: This episode is sponsored in part by Thinkst. This is going to take a minute to explain, so bear with me. I linked against an early version of their tool, canarytokens.org in the very early days of my newsletter, and what it does is relatively simple and straightforward. It winds up embedding credentials, files, that sort of thing in various parts of your environment, wherever you want to; it gives you fake AWS API credentials, for example. And the only thing that these things do is alert you whenever someone attempts to use those things. It's an awesome approach. I've used something similar for years. Check them out. But wait, there's more. They also have an enterprise option that you should be very much aware of canary.tools. You can take a look at this, but what it does is it provides an enterprise approach to drive these things throughout your entire environment. You can get a physical device that hangs out on your network and impersonates whatever you want to. When it gets Nmap scanned, or someone attempts to log into it, or access files on it, you get instant alerts. It's awesome. If you don't do something like this, you're likely to find out that you've gotten breached, the hard way. Take a look at this. It's one of those few things that I look at and say, “Wow, that is an amazing idea. I love it.” That's canarytokens.org and canary.tools. The first one is free. The second one is enterprise-y. Take a look. I'm a big fan of this. More from them in the coming weeks.Corey: This episode is sponsored in part by our friends at Lumigo. If you've built anything from serverless, you know that if there's one thing that can be said universally about these applications, it's that it turns every outage into a murder mystery. Lumigo helps make sense of all of the various functions that wind up tying together to build applications. It offers one-click distributed tracing so you can effortlessly find and fix issues in your serverless and microservices environment. You've created more problems for yourself; make one of them go away. To learn more, visit lumigo.io.Corey: I'm Corey Quinn. I'm joined this week by Cassidy Williams, principal developer experience engineer at Netlify. Cassidy, thanks for joining me.Cassidy: Thanks for having me.Corey: So, you're famous in many circles for things that have nothing to do with your actual job. Or at least that's the perception. So, let's at least start there because I'm not sure we'll get back to it. What is Netlify? And what does a principal developer experience engineer do at such a place?Cassidy: Yeah, so the shortest answer is, it's a place where you can host your website. The longer answer is it's a whole development workflow. You can build whatever types of complex websites that you want, and we make it very easy to get it up and running. And my job there is on the developer experience team. And basically, what we do is we are developer experience engineers. We try to build things and show developers how to make their apps, their websites, their various products, and projects easier to build on Netlify.Corey: Sort of the whole idea of what I used to think of, I guess, as static websites and various ways to host it, which I think is now called Jamstack. But that probably also misses a fair bit of nuance because I'm going to be completely transparent here: I am crap at all things frontend.Cassidy: It takes all kinds to make a project work. Yeah, so it is more than static. I like to think of it more as static first. The way I've defined Jamstack, that kind of clicks with most people is, writing Jamstack—and for those who don't know, it initially was an acronym, where it was:, JavaScript, APIs, and Markup stack. And so, it's less about technologies and more about the philosophy of building websites.But the philosophy of it is, it's kind of like building mobile applications, but in the browser, where you try to build as much as you can upfront, and then pull data in as needed. Because in a mobile application, when you have something native, you don't, server-side, render the UI every single time. The UI is built pretty—Corey: Well, not with that attitude anyway.Cassidy: [laugh]. That's true. That's true. But when you're on a mobile app, you don't normally pull in the UI every single time. It's built-in, and then you pull in data as needed; sometimes it's local, sometimes it's on a server somewhere. And that's what Jamstack is all about. It's building as much as you can upfront and then pulling in data as needed.Corey: The idea is incredibly compelling, and it gets at a emerging trend that I don't think that there's any escaping, and—maybe this is overblown, I'd love to get your feedback on it—I can't shake the feeling that JavaScript is the future—not necessarily a frontend—in general, when it comes to, effectively, computers. We're seeing it on the backend, we're seeing it on the frontend, the major cloud providers are all moving in a direction of approaching folks who have JavaScript experience, and that's the only certainty in that persona that they wind up identifying. It is very clearly not going away while getting more capable. Is that fair? Is that missing something? What's the deal there?Cassidy: I keep hearing there's, like, a rule that people are saying, like, “If it can be built in JavaScript, it will,” because I think it started as kind of this toy language that people didn't really take seriously. But it has not only become more powerful, but also browsers have become more powerful too, and you can just build more and more with it. And because it's kind of a low barrier-to-entry language, it's relatively simple to at least initially learn JavaScript before you get into all the nuances of everything, that I think, just because there are more people using it and it's easier and faster to pick up then something like assembly or C++ or something. I hesitate to make generalizations because you never know, but it does feel like that sometimes, that JavaScript is just the way that things are going.Corey: And I admit, a couple of times I have tried to get into the JavaScript world, and it isn't clicking for me. My lingua franca is crappy Python. And it's just crappy enough to run, but it's neither elegant nor well-designed. It is also barely functional. And every time I have brought in an actual developer to turn some of my scripts into something a bit more robust, they ask me what it does, they smile and nod a lot and never take their eyes off me for a second, and then immediately get rid of everything I might possibly have touched.This is, of course, a best practice where I'm involved. But it runs. Like, “This is the worst code I've ever run.” “Ah, yes, but it does run.” The problem I have with JavaScript is that I do not understand it. The idea of asynchronous calls on a browser completely melt my brain whenever I look at it.That's caused a few of my early naive mistakes where, “Oh, go ahead and set this value and then use it here down below, and—wait. Why is it completing before it has that value and it's not you—what is going on here?” And now I understand the general principles of it, but I'm still getting lost and confused in the weeds. Now, is this just another expression of being secretly terrible? Or is there a nuance here that I'm not picking up on?Cassidy: I was smiling the entire time you were saying this because I feel like almost everybody who is new to JavaScript coming from another language has had the exact same issues. So, you're not alone, and you're not a total idiot. [laugh].Corey: So, I decided that it was time to learn it the second time, and I—all right, I'm going to break my own rule, which is the way I normally learn something new is I'll dive into it and start building something and then we'll see what happens. Sure, it means I'm a full stack overflow developer, and my primary IDE is copying and pasting, but I can get something sort of functional that works. That approach wasn't working for me, so what I did on my second attempt was odd. I'm going to go actually do the unthinkable for me, and read some documentation and/or some tutorials.And I was almost immediately blown off course there because suddenly, I find myself just wandering onto what I can only describe as a battlefield between all of the different frameworks I could have chosen between, and it seemed like the winning move was not to play. What am I missing? Are these frameworks hard requirements for doing anything that even remotely resembles frontend in a responsible way? Are they nice-to-haves? Is it effectively an aside current debate that I got suckered into and lost the forest for the trees?Cassidy: You probably got sucked into many debates because there are so many in this world, I do not think you need a framework to do complex web apps or any web apps. I mean, my personal website, as much as I love React—and I'm deep in the React world—I did that with vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and that's all it is. And plenty of the projects that I do, I start with vanilla, and then I add React as needed. I think it's something where these frameworks, you don't need them, but it's really nice once you start building large applications where you don't want to reinvent the wheel. Because there have been plenty of times on my own projects on other projects, where I start to basically start implementing state-driven components, and trying to parse templates and stuff that I end up making for myself. Where if I did React, I probably wouldn't need to actually implement all of those. And so you don't need these frameworks. That being said, they can be very helpful as you make more complex projects.Corey: So, I periodically post an architectural diagram of the pipeline slash workflow thing I use to write my newsletter every week. And I was on the verge of just hiring a frontend developer to build something frontend because it turns out that there's not a great experience in using a whole bunch of shell scripts that require a CLI to post at random API endpoints. And then a discovered Retool, which is one of those low-code tools that more or less is Visual Basic for frontend. It was transformative because suddenly, it's, “Oh. When I click this button, make this query that hits some API that I can define,” and oh my stars. It was transformative, and I was actively annoyed I hadn't discovered it years ago.Cassidy: [laugh]. Yeah, all of those low-code tools for web devs, they've been growing, that is a really interesting realm of the web that I'm curious about. I've played around with quite a few of them, and some of them, I kind of end up just wishing that I built it myself in the first place, and then for some of the others, I'm like, “You know, this saved me some time.” And yeah, I think those things are really, really powerful. I don't know if they'll ever fully replace having an actual developer, but for a lot of individual smaller tasks, it's really nice to not have to, again, reinvent the wheel.Corey: And you're right. These tools are getting more capable. The problem I have is, whenever I talk to the teams building these things, they're super excited about them and can't wait to show them off. And then I say, “Just a quick question. Of all your engineers here, how many of them don't know JavaScript?”And the answer is always the same. None of them? Great. Yeah. Now, there's an opportunity to present this to existing frontend developers so they can get back to what they were doing when they build a quick internal tool for someone else in a business unit, but there's an entire untapped market of people like me who don't understand JavaScript. So, when we see these things described in JavaScript context, it looks like it's not for us, even though it very much is. There's something to be said for making things accessible to an audience that would benefit from them.Cassidy: Yeah. I've actually given a few talks where it's geared towards a backend developer who might want to dip their toe into frontend but have no idea where to start. And that is a whole world of people who are like you who just don't understand the DOM in the browser, and how the interactions happen, and how the async await stuff works, and how promises work and everything. And they're very weird concepts that just aren't in other parts of programming, typically. And I think that's a marketing problem where a lot of these low-code tools or no-code tools don't understand the opportunity that's available to them.Corey: I think that there's a misunderstanding in many respects, where I've also seen a fair bit of, I can only call it technical bigotry, I guess, is the best framing here of, “Oh, where frontend is easy, and backend is the hard stuff, and that's really where it's at.” And having worked with qualified teams on both sides and looking at all the intricacies on both sides, where the hell does that come from?Cassidy: You know, I think it just comes from the past.Corey: So, do I. And I don't agree with it. It's just such a misunderstanding and a trivialization of such a valuable area of things. It kills me every time I see it.Cassidy: Yeah, it's frustrating, I admit, because I've faced that a lot in my career. I actually—I used to do backend. I used to do Python stuff, and I have a computer science degree, but plenty of times, there's some kind of backend dev who's just like, “Eh, well, I know HTML and CSS, so I know frontend.” And that's about it. Or they'll say, “Well, do you really need to know this kind of algorithm or this way of doing things in an optimized way because you're just putting a pretty face on the data that we're producing for you.”And it's an annoying sentiment. And I really think that it's just from a previous time because a long time ago, from five to seven to ten years ago, that might have been more true because we didn't have some of these frameworks that do a lot on the frontend. And we didn't have things like GraphQL, and really powerful tools on the frontend. Where back then, it was a lot of the backend doing stuff, and then the frontend making it look good. But now the work is distributed a bit more where our backend teams, I can say, “Build however you want. You can change your language to Rust, to Go, to whatever, do whatever you want; as long as the data is exposed to me, I can use it and run with it.”And then all the routing ends up happening on the frontend, all of the management of that data happens on the frontend, all of the organization and optimizing for the browser happens on the frontend. And so I think both sides have been empowered in recent years in that regard because, again, with that modularity, you can scale a lot better, but those lingering sentiments are still there. And they're annoying, but unfortunately, we've got to live with them sometimes.Corey: So, let's talk as well about, I guess, sort of the elephant in the room. Your Twitter feed is one of the most obnoxious parts of my day, specifically because every time you post something I am incredibly envious about the insight it provides, the humor inherent in it. “I wish I had thought to go in that direction,” is almost always my immediate response. And, ugh, it kills me. Let's talk a little bit about that. How did it start? And how is it continuing?Cassidy: That's a good question. So, I've always been a bit of a clown, both on and off the internet, but I was never very, very public about it, for a while there. Either that or just had a small audience and people were just like, “There she goes again. Maybe she'll shut up someday.” And so I've always had those little drops of humor where I can because I think I'm amusing myself at least.But about a year and a half ago, I discovered TikTok. And with TikTok, basically, it has such a good video editor—that was the only reason why I got the app because it made it so easy to make videos on my phone—where I was able to suddenly not just type my tweet jokes and my snarky humor, I could make a video about it, I could add music to it, I could make a dumb face. And people seem to like it, and it's worked out.And I try to approach things rather from a realistic or educational perspective first and then drop in the humor later, I don't try to lead with the joke, but at the same time, it's always fun to have a joke in there because people like to say, “Oh, something funny is happening. I'm getting ready for it.” And it's kind of fun that I'm able to do that a lot more now that people actually expect humor. [laugh].Corey: When I was an employee—which I was, let's be very clear here, terrible at. There is no denying that—it was always a problem for me where the biggest fear that anyone had—start to finish—was that I would open my mouth and say something. And credit where due, my last job was at a large finance company. And at that point, they're under such scrutiny that anytime someone opens their mouth on anything, it has the potential to trigger an SEC investigation, and no one knows what I'm going to say. Yeah, there's a lot of validity and being concerned about that.I felt like I couldn't ever just shoot my mouth off and be me. And I always had this approach of, no company in the world would ever be willing to tolerate my shenanigans, therefore, I should never look to either do these things in public or later, go to be an employee again. You're living proof that it is in fact possible to have both.Cassidy: Yeah. It brings a levity to our very serious industry—I used to be in FinTech; I know how serious that can be—but then just in tech in general, a lot of tech people take themselves way too seriously. And I understand we're doing awesome work. Some people think they're gods because they can think something and make it into an app. There's ego there, but I feel like making fun of the problems, pointing out the problems in the industry and, kind of, just making light of it and making certain tech jokes and making certain concepts humorous as well as educational, I think bringing that approach to things is just really, really effective.And I'm really happy to be on my team, honestly, at Netlify because a bunch of them are just dorks [laugh] where pretty much every single meeting, we try to make it a little bit fun. And it makes our meeting so much more enjoyable and productive because we're not just seriously staring at our screens and saying, “Okay, let's make this decision for our OKRs,” or anything like that. We have a good time in these meetings while being productive, and it makes for a really nice team dynamic. And I think there should be more of that, in general, in tech.Corey: One of the things that you have always done with your platform that I am, I guess, slowly warming up to is that you're never mean, or in the rare occasions where you punch at something, it's a dynamic; it's not a company and it's not a person. I have a strong rule of not punching at people, but large companies have always been fair game from my perspective. And that is a mixed bag. Yours is—how to put this—unrelentingly positive where it's always about building people up, and shining a light on things that used to be confusing, and reminding people that they're not alone in being confused by those things. And that's no small thing.Cassidy: Yeah. I appreciate you noticing that. I do try to do that, not only, necessarily, to be just like, “I want to be the positive star in tech,” but also because you never know what someone is dealing with, and someone might be pretty mean, and there have been plenty of people who have said some not great things towards me or towards other people and that cuts deep. And so I do try to avoid those kinds of pointed things. Believe me, it's difficult; sometimes I do just want to call people out and be just like, “I know what you did to this group of people, and I hate it.” But you never know what people are going through, and I'd rather just make sure that the people who are doing well are the ones who are uplifted, and they get the attention that they need, or deserve, rather.Corey: I did a little research—I know, I know; shock—before I wound up inviting you here, and it's not just your Twitter account. It's not just your TikToks, it's not just your weekly multi-hour livestreaming on Twitch—or ‘Twetch' or however it's pronounced. I'm old, and that's fine—it's not the platforms; it's the fact that no matter where you are, you're constantly teaching people things. And I want to be clear, that doesn't seem like it's in your job description, is it?Cassidy: No, but it's something that I really care about. I really like teaching in general. A lot of the resources that I provide and the things that I do are me trying to give people things that I didn't have when I was in the industry, trying to give advice that I wish I had, trying to give resources that I didn't have. Because a lot of times, people don't know where to look, and if I can be that person that can help them along, some of the greatest joys I've ever felt have been when people say, “This blog post that you wrote helped me get my first job,” or, “This thing that you said, was the kick in the pants that I needed to start my own company.” Little things like that. I love hearing it because I really just love making people successful and helping them get to that next step in their careers. And that's my passion project, and I tried to do that and all the things that I do.Corey: There's really something to be said about being able to reach people who have pain and have needs. I mean, the one crossover talk that I gave that really transformed the way that I saw things was “Terrible Ideas in Git” because if there's one thing that unites frontend, backend, ops folks, data scientists, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, it's Git as being the common thing that no one really understands. And by teaching people how to use Git, first, it was sort of my backdoor, sneaky hack into finally having to teach myself how Git works. But then it was a problem of where, now I need to go ahead and find a way to present this in a way that's engaging, and fun, and doesn't require being deep into the weeds. And I was invited to speak at Frontend Conference, Zurich, which was just a surreal experience.Incredibly nice people, very gracious community and I'm sitting there for the first half of the day watching the talks, and it's a frontend conference and everyone's slides are gorgeous. And this was before I started having a designer help me with my slides. So, it was always a black Helvetica text on a white background. And mine looked like crap, and I only had a few hours until my talk, so what do I do because I'm feeling incredibly out of place? I changed the font on everything to Comic Sans and leaned in on that.And it definitely got a reaction. The talk was great. It really did work. And it was fun. And in hindsight, I don't think I'd do it again because I keep hearing rumors that I can't quite confirm, but it's significant enough that I want to be clear, that Comic Sans is apparently super accessible when it comes to people with dyslexia, and I don't want to crap on something like that. It's not funny when it makes people feel out of place.Cassidy: Yeah. These kinds of things, it's delicate to talk about because you have to figure out, okay, how can I make this accessible to as many people as possible? How can I communicate this information? And then, meanwhile, when you are this person, that just means your DMs are very, very full of people who want one-on-one help and you have to figure out how to scale yourself, and how can you make these statements that are helpful for as many people as possible, provide as many resources as you can, and hope that people don't feel bad when you can't answer every DM that comes your way. And yeah, there's a delicacy when it comes to all the different things that you could be poking fun at, or saying you don't like, and stuff, and my answer to pretty much everything has turned into just, “It depends.”Whenever people are just like, “What's the best framework to learn?” I'm kind of like, “Eh, it depends on what you want to build.” Because first of all, that's true, but second of all, there's enough opinions out there in the world saying, like, “This is the worst font.” “This is the best font.” “This is the worst way to build web apps.” “This is the only way to build web apps.” I mean, you hear this constantly throughout the tech industry. And I think if more people said, “It depends,” we would be a [laugh] much happier industry in general.Corey: This episode is sponsored by ExtraHop. ExtraHop provides threat detection and response for the Enterprise (not the starship). On-prem security doesn't translate well to cloud or multi-cloud environments, and that's not even counting IoT. ExtraHop automatically discovers everything inside the perimeter, including your cloud workloads and IoT devices, detects these threats up to 35 percent faster, and helps you act immediately. Ask for a free trial of detection and response for AWS today at extrahop.com/trial.Corey: I really think that you're right, and I think the hardest part is getting there. You say that the answer to, “What framework should I pick?” Is, “Well, it depends.” And that's very true. The counterargument is that it's also supremely unhelpful. It's—Cassidy: Right.Corey: —“I'm looking to build a web page that has a form on it, and when I click a button, it does a thing.” And at that point, it feels like it's, “Well, there are an entire field of yaks before you, all of them need to be shaved before the form will exist.” And it just becomes this. “Oh, my god, are you just trying to tell me not to bother?” And no, that's never the response.But having a blessing, I guess, golden path of where you can focus to get something done, and then where it makes sense to deviate gets signaled, I like that approach. But people are for some reason worried about being overly prescriptive. And I get that too.Cassidy: Yeah, there's a balance there. But I should append to my previous answer. I say, “It depends, but here's how I would do it.” And that gives some direction. Some people might be just like, “Oh, well, I don't want to use React,” or something like that, and I'm like, “Well, then, unfortunately, I can't help you. You're on your own. But I'm sure it'll work for you.” And just kind of roll with it from there because you never know.Corey: Yeah, what I've never liked the questions that the asker already has an answer they want to hear, and they're looking for, almost, confirmation bias.Cassidy: Yeah.Corey: Yeah.Cassidy: That's common.Corey: At that point, why bother? Just say, “This is what I'm thinking about doing. Please tell me it's not ridiculous.” And if it is, people will generally try and be kinder about it. But we'll see.Cassidy: Yeah, a lot of times, too—and I hate to say it, but a lot of times, too, people come in with such an arrogant air, and oftentimes, that's either because they're insecure about something, or they don't have a lot of experience in something. But [unfortunately 00:23:27], that's almost always the case. There have been times on my stream, for example, where someone will say, “If you use this framework, it will solve 99% of your problems.” And I'm kind of like, “Eh, will it though?” And I don't want to just straight up say you're wrong, but I kind of have to keep asking questions and try to be one of those teachers where I'm saying, “Okay, I'm going to ask you these questions. Are you sure that this edge case is in that 1%? I think you're being a little bold here.” And not trying to specifically humble them, and know that they are wrong, but also turn it into a moment where you have to learn that nothing really solves 99% of your problems. [laugh].Corey: And whenever someone says something like that, I always assume conflict of interest somewhere. It's like, “With this framework you're suggesting, I don't know, just so happened to integrate super well with the thing your company does? Huh, how about that?” Whenever someone can't identify an area that they're offering is crap in, I assume that they're, effectively, evangelizing something with almost a religious fervor, and aren't really people to take overly seriously. I have technologies that I adore, but if I can't articulate use cases in which they would be wildly inappropriate, then I'm not really being fair, either to the person I'm talking to, honestly, the product itself.Cassidy: Exactly. There's always cons. Yes, there might be a lot of pros and the pros may outweigh the cons, but you have to be able to speak to those if you're going to give a credible answer to any sort of recommendation like that.Corey: So, let's talk about platforms a little bit. You have a newsletter which I'm a fan of, and will of course link in the [show notes 00:25:05]. You stream on Twitch, which is similar to a podcast, only it's video and it's live so, unlike here where we can edit heavily if someone winds up breaking down crying, like I tend to every third episode—Cassidy: Yeah, we should cut out those farts earlier, by the way.Corey: Oh, yeah. Oh, we've already edited that out.Cassidy: Okay, great. [laugh].Corey: We're already set. We do this in real-time here. But you have to do things like that in real-time on Twitch; as soon as something happens on camera, it's done, it's out there, and it's a very different experience. You do it also on hard mode, where you and I are having a conversation back and forth, whereas when you do Twitch, you're doing it solo. You are effectively in an empty room—or what appears to be one anyway—and you're talking to the camera, and there's no other audio other than you and a lovely backing track.There's no conversation, you are monologuing for the duration of that. People mention things in the chat with a slight delay, and then you can take action based upon that. But that feels like an awful lot of pressure to wind up filling the dead air while you're waiting for the next question to come in.Cassidy: Yeah, it's something that has taken practice. And I think it's something that because I have done quite a bit of public speaking, I've done a bunch of teaching, I am comfortable with the silence. And the music also helps that a lot. Some people when they are about to livestream, or they're learning how to livestream for the first time they kind of panic at the silence. They're like, “Oh, my gosh, how am I going to fill it?”Meanwhile, with me, I'm just like, “Ah, nobody's asking a question. I can take a drink of water now.” And try to keep it as natural as possible. I try to make this stream—I started doing it more regularly during the pandemic, as something that's kind of just co-working and kind of having something in the background, because usually when people are in the office or working at a cafe or something, you get to hear interesting conversations, and a voice, and you can chime in on occasion. And I try to make that what the stream is where people don't have to be paying excessive attention, but I open it up where you can ask me pretty much anything and I will give you an honest answer, and just try to make it a space where people can not worry about asking a stupid question because I think that none of these questions, whether it's about tech jobs, or certain frameworks, or opinions about things, none of them are dumb.Sometimes it's just people who aren't sure what the answer should be, or they aren't sure if their biases are correct or anything like that. And I really enjoy the livestream because it gives me a connection with the community that I can help teach further. And then as they ask questions, I can take that and run with it, and build a demo, help them come up with project ideas, show how I would build something, something like that.Corey: Oh, there's an incredible authenticity to what you do, and that is, I think, one of the most impressive aspects of what you do. I've never yet seen you make someone feel like a jerk for asking a question. I've also never once seen you claim you knew how something worked when you didn't. You point people at resources to find the right answer. You are constantly gracious, you're always incredibly authentic, and it's become really easy to consume your materials because I know you're not going to make it up if you don't know the answer. And that's no small thing.Cassidy: Thank you. [laugh]. I appreciate that. It's not easy, but it's very fun. And I do hope that it makes people more comfortable with the concept of streaming, coding, and any of that.Corey: You also seem to have some of the same problems than I do, specifically—not the jerk problems. That's unique to me—but the problem in the context of answering a difficult question, namely, “So, what is it you do?” Because as mentioned, you have the newsletter, you have the job, you have the Twitch stream, you have the TikTok, you have the Twitter. You do courses from time to time, if I'm not mistaken, as well?Cassidy: Yes, I do. I have a few online courses on Scrimba on Udemy on Skillshare on O'Reilly. I like teaching JavaScript and showing people how React works, and stuff, under the hood. And you're right, it's hard to explain what I do sometimes. [laugh].Corey: And that's the hard part is when someone asks, “So, what do you do?” What's your default answer?Cassidy: I have created this tagline that I'm kind of just sticking with, and we'll see how long it lasts me. But I say, “I make memes, streams, and software.” And I just kind of leave it at that, and people be like, “Okay, Cassidy, shut up.” [laugh] and I leave it at that. But yeah, if someone asks me what I do, I kind of start with, “I code.”And then if they press further, I'll be like, “Well, I teach people how to code, and I show people how to code best.” And usually, that's where my grandpa stops asking. He's just like, “Okay, it's that computer stuff.” If it's a tech person, I start diving more and more into all of the things, and it's very hard to explain. I wish there were a word for trying to make people laugh, and teach, and build things, and stuff, but I don't know what that word would be.Corey: Yeah, it's a hard problem. My answer has always been to spin it depending upon who I'm talking to.Cassidy: True.Corey: If it's at a neighborhood barbecue and people ask what I do, I try and make myself sound like some sort of esoteric accountant because if I say even slightly incorrectly what I do, suddenly people are asking me about their printers. And honestly, how do I fix a printer? I throw it away and I buy a new one, but that's not really helpful to people who are looking for actual help. So, it's a matter of aligning what I do with people's expectations. “I make fun of Amazon for a living,” is technically accurate, but boy does that get some strange looks.Cassidy: [laugh]. Yeah, it definitely, definitely varies on the audience. If I'm, for example, going to some kind of church barbecue, I just say, oh, I'm a software engineer. Questions stop there, and I leave it at that. If I'm at a tech meetup, I'll be just like, “Oh, well, I specialize on frontend things, but I also do some dev advocacy and stuff.”And I can generally stop there. But you're right, depending on the audience, I have to be careful because I don't want people to just ask me to fix their WiFi all the time, even though they do anyway. And to them. I usually say oh, I build computer things. I don't know how to work them, though. And I leave it at that.Corey: Oh, hey, I'm building a computer, too. Can you recommend some parts? Absolutely not. Is my—Cassidy: Nope.Corey: —I don't know what I'm doing there.Cassidy: I kind of just Google and accept whatever I'm told. [laugh].Corey: Yeah. And the other side of it, too, is if you're not direct enough and say, “Working with technology,” people tend to think that you're being condescending. It's like, “Oh, I do some cloud computing finance work.” And they're like, “Oh, so what, you fix an AWS bill?” Yeah, exactly. “You could just say that, you know?” “Well, yeah. To you, but there's a whole world of people out there to whom that sounds like I'm blowing them off with geekspeak.”Cassidy: Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And it's almost harder if it's a mixed group of people, too, because sometimes people who are in tech but I don't know the rest of the people, they might say, “Oh, she makes tech jokes on Twitter.” And they'll say, “Oh, really? Say something funny.” I'm like, “Uh—I don't know how.” [laugh]. It's not that easy. It's interesting trying to figure out how you define that for other people.Corey: “Oh, you're a comedian. Great. Make me laugh.” Like, “Oh, God.”Cassidy: Just please, no.Corey: Yeah, that's the best setup for a good belly laugh is command performance of, be funny when you weren't expecting it?Cassidy: Yeah. Ugh, can't handle it. I just freeze up and give up.Corey: Ugh. Again, these are not common problems. One thing that I did find incredibly funny was that when we started talking, we talked about things that we had encountered as we wound up going through expanding audiences on Twitter and whatnot. And you sent a screenshot, at one point, of tracking your Twitter follower count over time in a private Slack channel that you had. And you said, “This is ridiculous, and no one ever does it.” And then I responded with a screenshot of me doing the exact same thing, which is—Cassidy: So funny.Corey: —first, hilarious because I've never seen anyone else do that. And, two, a bit of product feedback, perhaps, for the team at Twitter.Cassidy: It really is. Yeah, no, when I found out you did that, too, I laughed so hard because so many times people have been just like, “You know there's tools for this? You don't have to just write a number in DM to yourself on Slack.” But this is the tool that works for me. It's quick. It's done. I can see, generally, how things are going. Someday I should put it in a graph of some type, but eh.Corey: But it's always forward-looking, too, because all those tools don't go back in time to your account's inception. And, “Oh, you had this person follow you at this time.” There's no historical record there.Cassidy: Yeah. It is totally product feedback. I have no idea how I'd be able to say, “Hey, look at this DM, fix this problem,” to a specific Twitter person, but, eh.Corey: Four years ago, I had 1500 Twitter followers and it had taken me seven years to do it. And people ask, “What were the big inflection points when you wound up getting significant audience boosts?” And if I had dates on that stuff, I could absolutely do some correlation like, “Oh, there's re:Invent.” “Oh, that's where I was visibly thrown out of a bar on the news.” Kidding. But being able to tie it to things like that would be helpful, but it's happened, it's gone. I just have to basically try and remember, and assume I'm somewhat close to accurate.Cassidy: Yeah. And I don't do it consistently, mind you, there's definitely weeks where I just totally miss it. But sometimes, for example, if I'm about to tweet something funny, I'll mark it and then make the post and just see where it goes. And it's more just interesting for me; I will probably never share this with people, besides you when we talk about our [laugh] strategies. But yeah, I mean, I guess that also speaks to building what's best for you is often the best solution.Corey: Yeah, and it changes, too. And the part of the reason that these conversations tend to happen behind closed doors because the easy, naive response is, “Oh, that'd be super interesting to watch and see how those problems get addressed.” But so much of what we're doing and how we approach it is not helpful until you're at a certain point of scale. If you have 200 Twitter followers, for example, frankly, you're making better life choices and either one of us are, but the things that we are concerned with and have to pay attention to, just don't apply in any meaningful way.Cassidy: Right.Corey: Conversely, if you have a small following Twitter account, that is a freedom that we don't really have because past a certain point, as I'm sure you can attest, you can't say that you like waffles without getting someone asking, “Well, what's the problem you have with pancakes?” And then insulting you and following you around until you block them.Cassidy: It's so true. I was talking with someone about this yesterday because it's not like I ever say things that are particularly controversial or anything, but word choice matters so much more when there are a lot of eyes on you. And so many times I'll make a joke, and then I have to do a follow-up tweet saying, “This is a joke. Please don't tell me how to exit vim.” Or something like that. Because oh, my word. People just will never take things the right way en masse.Corey: No, I have learned there's no possible way to say something without it being misinterpreted. And I try and wind up turning it back around, and every time I read something, I do my best to assume good faith. I don't always succeed, and sometimes I look like a fool for basically taking a troll seriously, but I'd rather that than the alternative of someone asks a naive question, and I assume they're just being a jerk and block them or I mock them. Because the failure mode of me looking like I got hoodwinked is better than making someone else feel crappy.Cassidy: Right. Exactly. I remember a while ago, this was, like, a couple years ago, there was someone who was not being nice to me in the mentions, and I was just like, “Why would you respond to me like this? Just leave me alone.” I said something like that.And it was a lesson for me and for them, where they ended up getting really upset with me and yelling at me in the DMs because they were getting all of this negative commentary on there and for being the mean one, and then I end up looking like a jerk because I ended up spotlighting this person who might have been having a bad day. You never know. And the algorithm works against you when you have a lot of eyes who are looking at what you're tweeting about. And so, yeah, you have whenever stuff like that happens, you kind of just have to ignore it and learn to pick your battles, I guess.Corey: Oh, yeah. And I assume that's going on now. I imagine that one day, the AWS Twitter account is going to finally snap and just quote-tweet me with some incredible roast and there will be no coming back from that for me. I look forward to that day. It would be so nice to see that come out of them. I worry, I may die before it gets there, but hope springs eternal.Cassidy: [laugh].Corey: Cassidy, thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me. If people want to hear more about what you have to say—as they damn well should—okay can they find you? Take a deep breath; run through the list.Cassidy: All right, they can find me on all sorts of platforms. You could look up Cassidy Williams, and you'll find either me or a Scooby-Doo character, and I'm not the Scooby-Doo character. Or you could look up cassidoo—C-A-S-S-I-D-O-O—cassidoo.co is my website, cassido on Twitter on GitHub on CodePen on LinkedIn all those platforms. That's where you can find me.Corey: And we will put links to all of those things in the [show notes 00:38:03] because honestly, that's someone else's job, and I am going to hurl that mess to them.Cassidy: [laugh]. Perfect.Corey: Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me. I really appreciate that.Cassidy: It was really fun. It was good chatting with you, too.Corey: It really was.

On this episode of WE Have Cancer, seasoned Hollywood voice actor Rob Paulsen shares his unique story battling throat cancer, and the important roles laughter and joy played in his treatment and recovery. Rob brings along some of his most famous characters to put a smile on everyone's faces during this bright and inspiring episode. Guest Biography: Rob Paulsen is one of Hollywood's busiest and most gifted voice performers. If you don't recognize his name, you may recognize some of his most famous characters, including: Raphael and Donatello from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Pinky from Pinky and the Brain, Yakko from Animaniacs, and many, many others. He was diagnosed with throat cancer at age 60, and the journey of his treatment inspired him to write and publish his own story, Voice Lessons, which is now available in both print and audiobook format. Table of Contents:The Joy of Making People Laugh Rob deeply believes laughter is healing and is one of the keys to health and wellbeing. He says, "Laughter is the best medicine because you can't overdose and the refills are free!" Diagnosed with Throat Cancer at Age 60 Rob's ENT Doctor found a lump on the side of his neck and performed a biopsy. When he got the news with his throat cancer diagnosis, all he could think was how lucky he was to have such a long, fulfilling life. "Everyone was so Kind" Rob says everyone involved in his case was kind and professional and patient, and that the compassion was remarkable. He believes some people just have a true calling, and it's a heroic thing to watch. Giving Back to Medical Practitioners with Laughter When people find out what Rob does, it makes everyone joyful. He shares how he was always making his practitioners laugh, which made him feel like a million bucks. He says, "If I get to lighten their load a little bit, that's all I can ask for." Eh, What's Up, Doc? Rob shares a special moment of getting to meet Mel Blanc before he passed. Blanc was the voice of countless famous cartoon characters, including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Barney Rubble. Rob says he learned a lot from him and still carries those lessons with him. Learning to Embrace the Unexpected Rob shares he was not particularly good at living in the moment before his diagnosis. He used to “what if” himself to death, but since his treatment he's learned to take life one day at a time. Why He Wrote His Book, "Voice Lessons" Rob says, "I'm not a movie star, the characters that I voice are the famous ones. I thought the last thing the world needs was another celebrity bio from another 'non-celebrity.'" After his throat cancer diagnosis, he became very involved in his treatment in terms of trying to learn as much as possible. Then he thought it might be a great story, which then turned into a great audiobook. Rob Pauslen's Biggest Lesson Lee asks Rob what his biggest lesson has been, to which Rob shares his experience learning to simply "be enough." He says he's smart enough to know what he doesn't know, and "it's a lot." He learned there are certain days where it's okay to simple "be enough."

[While Bob & Cheryl Enyart go fishing we invite you to enjoy from the RSR archives our favorite List of Not So Old Things! Photos from today, June 25, 2021.] -- Finches Diversify in Decades, Opals Form in Months, Man's Genetic Diversity in 200 Generations, C-14 Everywhere: Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams present their classic program that led to the audience-favorites rsr.org/list-shows! See below and hear on today's radio program our list of Not So Old and Not So Slow Things! From opals forming in months to man's genetic diversity in 200 generations, and with carbon 14 everywhere it's not supposed to be (including in diamonds and dinosaur bones!), scientific observations fill the guys' most traditional list challenging those who claim that the earth is billions of years old. Many of these scientific finds demand a re-evaluation of supposed million and billion-year ages. * Finches Adapt in 17 Years, Not 2.3 Million: Charles Darwin's finches are claimed to have taken 2,300,000 years to diversify from an initial species blown onto the Galapagos Islands. Yet individuals from a single finch species on a U.S. Bird Reservation in the Pacific were introduced to a group of small islands 300 miles away and in at most 17 years, like Darwin's finches, they had diversified their beaks, related muscles, and behavior to fill various ecological niches. Hear about this also at rsr.org/spetner. * Opals Can Form in "A Few Months" And Don't Need 100,000 Years: A leading authority on opals, Allan W. Eckert, observed that, "scientific papers and textbooks have told that the process of opal formation requires tens of thousands of years, perhaps hundreds of thousands... Not true." A 2011 peer-reviewed paper in a geology journal from Australia, where almost all the world's opal is found, reported on the: "new timetable for opal formation involving weeks to a few months and not the hundreds of thousands of years envisaged by the conventional weathering model." (And apparently, per a 2019 report from Entomology Today, opals can even form around insects!) More knowledgeable scientists resist the uncritical, group-think insistence on false super-slow formation rates (as also for manganese nodules, gold veins, stone, petroleum, canyons and gullies, and even guts, all below). Regarding opals, Darwinian bias led geologists to long ignore possible quick action, as from microbes, as a possible explanation for these mineraloids. For both in nature and in the lab, opals form rapidly, not even in 10,000 years, but in weeks. See this also from creationists by a geologist, a paleobiochemist, and a nuclear chemist. * Finches Speciate in Two Generations vs Two Million Years for Darwin's Birds? Darwin's finches on the Galapagos Islands are said to have diversified into 14 species over a period of two million years. But in 2017 the journal Science reported a newcomer to the Island which within two generations spawned a reproductively isolated new species. In another instance as documented by Lee Spetner, a hundred birds of the same finch species introduced to an island cluster a 1,000 kilometers from Galapagos diversified into species with the typical variations in beak sizes, etc. "If this diversification occurred in less than seventeen years," Dr. Spetner asks, "why did Darwin's Galapagos finches [as claimed by evolutionists] have to take two million years?" * Blue Eyes Originated Not So Long Ago: Not a million years ago, nor a hundred thousand years ago, but based on a peer-reviewed paper in Human Genetics, a press release at Science Daily reports that, "research shows that people with blue eyes have a single, common ancestor. A team at the University of Copenhagen have tracked down a genetic mutation which took place 6-10,000 years ago and is the cause of the eye colour of all blue-eyed humans alive on the planet today." * Adding the Entire Universe to our List of Not So Old Things? Based on March 2019 findings from Hubble, Nobel laureate Adam Riess of the Space Telescope Science Institute and his co-authors in the Astrophysical Journal estimate that the universe is about a billion years younger than previously thought! Then in September 2019 in the journal Science, the age dropped precipitiously to as low as 11.4 billion years! Of course, these measurements also further squeeze the canonical story of the big bang chronology with its many already existing problems including the insufficient time to "evolve" distant mature galaxies, galaxy clusters, superclusters, enormous black holes, filaments, bubbles, walls, and other superstructures. So, even though the latest estimates are still absurdly too old (Google: big bang predictions, and click on the #1 ranked article, or just go on over there to rsr.org/bb), regardless, we thought we'd plop the whole universe down on our List of Not So Old Things! * After the Soft Tissue Discoveries, NOW Dino DNA: When a North Carolina State University paleontologist took the Tyrannosaurus Rex photos to the right of original biological material, that led to the 2016 discovery of dinosaur DNA, So far researchers have also recovered dinosaur blood vessels, collagen, osteocytes, hemoglobin, red blood cells, and various proteins. As of May 2018, twenty-six scientific journals, including Nature, Science, PNAS, PLoS One, Bone, and Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, have confirmed the discovery of biomaterial fossils from many dinosaurs! Organisms including T. Rex, hadrosaur, titanosaur, triceratops, Lufengosaur, mosasaur, and Archaeopteryx, and many others dated, allegedly, even hundreds of millions of years old, have yielded their endogenous, still-soft biological material. See the web's most complete listing of 100+ journal papers (screenshot, left) announcing these discoveries at bflist.rsr.org and see it in layman's terms at rsr.org/soft. * Rapid Stalactites, Stalagmites, Etc.: A construction worker in 1954 left a lemonade bottle in one of Australia's famous Jenolan Caves. By 2011 it had been naturally transformed into a stalagmite (below, right). Increasing scientific knowledge is arguing for rapid cave formation (see below, Nat'l Park Service shrinks Carlsbad Caverns formation estimates from 260M years, to 10M, to 2M, to it "depends"). Likewise, examples are growing of rapid formations with typical chemical make-up (see bottle, left) of classic stalactites and stalagmites including:- in Nat'l Geo the Carlsbad Caverns stalagmite that rapidly covered a bat - the tunnel stalagmites at Tennessee's Raccoon Mountain - hundreds of stalactites beneath the Lincoln Memorial - those near Gladfelter Hall at Philadelphia's Temple University (send photos to Bob@rsr.org) - hundreds of stalactites at Australia's zinc mine at Mt. Isa. - and those beneath Melbourne's Shrine of Remembrance. * Most Human Mutations Arose in 200 Generations: From Adam until Real Science Radio, in only 200 generations! The journal Nature reports The Recent Origin of Most Human Protein-coding Variants. As summarized by geneticist co-author Joshua Akey, "Most of the mutations that we found arose in the last 200 generations or so" (the same number previously published by biblical creationists). Another 2012 paper, in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology (Eugenie Scott's own field) on High mitochondrial mutation rates, shows that one mitochondrial DNA mutation occurs every other generation, which, as creationists point out, indicates that mtEve would have lived about 200 generations ago. That's not so old! * National Geographic's Not-So-Old Hard-Rock Canyon at Mount St. Helens: As our List of Not So Old Things (this web page) reveals, by a kneejerk reaction evolutionary scientists assign ages of tens or hundreds of thousands of years (or at least just long enough to contradict Moses' chronology in Genesis.) However, with closer study, routinely, more and more old ages get revised downward to fit the world's growing scientific knowledge. So the trend is not that more information lengthens ages, but rather, as data replaces guesswork, ages tend to shrink until they are consistent with the young-earth biblical timeframe. Consistent with this observation, the May 2000 issue of National Geographic quotes the U.S. Forest Service's scientist at Mount St. Helens, Peter Frenzen, describing the canyon on the north side of the volcano. "You'd expect a hard-rock canyon to be thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years old. But this was cut in less than a decade." And as for the volcano itself, while again, the kneejerk reaction of old-earthers would be to claim that most geologic features are hundreds of thousands or millions of years old, the atheistic National Geographic magazine acknowledges from the evidence that Mount St. Helens, the volcanic mount, is only about 4,000 years old! See below and more at rsr.org/mount-st-helens. * Mount St. Helens Dome Ten Years Old not 1.7 Million: Geochron Laboratories of Cambridge, Mass., using potassium-argon and other radiometric techniques claims the rock sample they dated, from the volcano's dome, solidified somewhere between 340,000 and 2.8 million years ago. However photographic evidence and historical reports document the dome's formation during the 1980s, just ten years prior to the samples being collected. With the age of this rock known, radiometric dating therefore gets the age 99.99999% wrong. * Devils Hole Pupfish Isolated Not for 13,000 Years But for 100: Secular scientists default to knee-jerk, older-than-Bible-age dates. However, a tiny Mojave desert fish is having none of it. Rather than having been genetically isolated from other fish for 13,000 years (which would make this small school of fish older than the Earth itself), according to a paper in the journal Nature, actual measurements of mutation rates indicate that the genetic diversity of these Pupfish could have been generated in about 100 years, give or take a few. * Polystrates like Spines and Rare Schools of Fossilized Jellyfish: Previously, seven sedimentary layers in Wisconsin had been described as taking a million years to form. And because jellyfish have no skeleton, as Charles Darwin pointed out, it is rare to find them among fossils. But now, reported in the journal Geology, a school of jellyfish fossils have been found throughout those same seven layers. So, polystrate fossils that condense the time of strata deposition from eons to hours or months, include: - Jellyfish in central Wisconsin were not deposited and fossilized over a million years but during a single event quick enough to trap a whole school. (This fossil school, therefore, taken as a unit forms a polystrate fossil.) Examples are everywhere that falsify the claims of strata deposition over millions of years. - Countless trilobites buried in astounding three dimensionality around the world are meticulously recovered from limestone, much of which is claimed to have been deposited very slowly. Contrariwise, because these specimens were buried rapidly in quickly laid down sediments, they show no evidence of greater erosion on their upper parts as compared to their lower parts.- The delicacy of radiating spine polystrates, like tadpole and jellyfish fossils, especially clearly demonstrate the rapidity of such strata deposition. - A second school of jellyfish, even though they rarely fossilized, exists in another locale with jellyfish fossils in multiple layers, in Australia's Brockman Iron Formation, constraining there too the rate of strata deposition. By the way, jellyfish are an example of evolution's big squeeze. Like galaxies evolving too quickly, galaxy clusters, and even human feet (which, like Mummy DNA, challenge the Out of Africa paradigm), jellyfish have gotten into the act squeezing evolution's timeline, here by 200 million years when they were found in strata allegedly a half-a-billion years old. Other examples, ironically referred to as Medusoid Problematica, are even found in pre-Cambrian strata. - 171 tadpoles of the same species buried in diatoms. - Leaves buried vertically through single-celled diatoms powerfully refute the claimed super-slow deposition of diatomaceous rock. - Many fossils, including a Mesosaur, have been buried in multiple "varve" layers, which are claimed to be annual depositions, yet they show no erosional patterns that would indicate gradual burial (as they claim, absurdly, over even thousands of years). - A single whale skeleton preserved in California in dozens of layers of diatom deposits thus forming a polystrate fossil. - 40 whales buried in the desert in Chile. "What's really interesting is that this didn't just happen once," said Smithsonian evolutionist Dr. Nick Pyenson. It happened four times." Why's that? Because "the fossil site has at least four layers", to which Real Science Radio's Bob Enyart replies: "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha", with RSR co-host Fred Williams thoughtfully adding, "Ha ha!" * Polystrate Trees: Examples abound around the world of polystrate trees: - Yellowstone's petrified polystrate forest (with the NPS exhibit sign removed; see below) with successive layers of rootless trees demonstrating the rapid deposition of fifty layers of strata. - A similarly formed polystrate fossil forest in France demonstrating the rapid deposition of a dozen strata. - In a thousand locations including famously the Fossil Cliffs of Joggins, Nova Scotia, polystrate fossils such as trees span many strata. - These trees lack erosion: Not only should such fossils, generally speaking, not even exist, but polystrates including trees typically show no evidence of erosion increasing with height. All of this powerfully disproves the claim that the layers were deposited slowly over thousands or millions of years. In the experience of your RSR radio hosts, evolutionists commonly respond to this hard evidence with mocking. See CRSQ June 2006, ICR Impact #316, and RSR 8-11-06 at KGOV.com. * Yellowstone Petrified Trees Sign Removed: The National Park Service removed their incorrect sign (see left and more). The NPS had claimed that in dozens of different strata over a 40-square mile area, many petrified trees were still standing where they had grown. The NPS eventually removed the sign partly because those petrified trees had no root systems, which they would have had if they had grown there. Instead, the trees of this "fossil forest" have roots that are abruptly broken off two or three feet from their trunks. If these mature trees actually had been remnants of sequential forests that had grown up in strata layer on top of strata layer, 27 times on Specimen Ridge (and 50 times at Specimen Creek), such a natural history implies passage of more time than permitted by biblical chronology. So, don't trust the National Park Service on historical science because they're wrong on the age of the Earth. * Wood Petrifies Quickly: Not surprisingly, by the common evolutionary knee-jerk claim of deep time, "several researchers believe that several millions of years are necessary for the complete formation of silicified wood". Our List of Not So Old and Not So Slow Things includes the work of five Japanese scientists who proved creationist research and published their results in the peer-reviewed journal Sedimentary Geology showing that wood can and does petrify rapidly. Modern wood significantly petrified in 36 years these researchers concluded that wood buried in strata could have been petrified in "a fairly short period of time, in the order of several tens to hundreds of years." * The Scablands: The primary surface features of the Scablands, which cover thousands of square miles of eastern Washington, were long believed to have formed gradually. Yet, against the determined claims of uniformitarian geologists, there is now overwhelming evidence as presented even in a NOVA TV program that the primary features of the Scablands formed rapidly from a catastrophic breach of Lake Missoula causing a massive regional flood. Of course evolutionary geologists still argue that the landscape was formed over tens of thousands of years, now by claiming there must have been a hundred Missoula floods. However, the evidence that there was Only One Lake Missoula Flood has been powerfully reinforced by a University of Colorado Ph.D. thesis. So the Scablands itself is no longer available to old-earthers as de facto evidence for the passage of millions of years. * The Heart Mountain Detachment: in Wyoming just east of Yellowstone, this mountain did not break apart slowly by uniformitarian processes but in only about half-an-hour as widely reported including in the evolutionist LiveScience.com, "Land Speed Record: Mountain Moves 62 Miles in 30 Minutes." The evidence indicates that this mountain of rock covering 425 square miles rapidly broke into 50 pieces and slid apart over an area of more than 1,300 square miles in a biblical, not a "geological," timeframe. * "150 Million" year-old Squid Ink Not Decomposed: This still-writable ink had dehydrated but had not decomposed! The British Geological Survey's Dr. Phil Wilby, who excavated the fossil, said, "It is difficult to imagine how you can have something as soft and sloppy as an ink sac fossilised in three dimensions, still black, and inside a rock that is 150 million years old." And the Daily Mail states that, "the black ink was of exactly the same structure as that of today's version", just desiccated. And Wilby added, "Normally you would find only the hard parts like the shell and bones fossilised but... these creatures... can be dissected as if they are living animals, you can see the muscle fibres and cells. It is difficult to imagine... The structure is similar to ink from a modern squid so we can write with it..." Why is this difficult for evolutionists to imagine? Because as Dr. Carl Wieland writes, "Chemical structures 'fall apart' all by themselves over time due to the randomizing effects of molecular motion." Decades ago Bob Enyart broadcast a geology program about Mount St. Helens' catastrophic destruction of forests and the hydraulic transportation and upright deposition of trees. Later, Bob met the chief ranger from Haleakala National Park on Hawaii's island of Maui, Mark Tanaka-Sanders. The ranger agreed to correspond with his colleague at Yellowstone to urge him to have the sign removed. Thankfully, it was then removed. (See also AIG, CMI, and all the original Yellowstone exhibit photos.) Groundbreaking research conducted by creation geologist Dr. Steve Austin in Spirit Lake after Mount St. Helens eruption provided a modern-day analog to the formation of Yellowstone fossil forest. A steam blast from that volcano blew over tens of thousands of trees leaving them without attached roots. Many thousands of those trees were floating upright in Spirit Lake, and began sinking at varying rates into rapidly and sporadically deposited sediments. Once Yellowstone's successive forest interpretation was falsified (though like with junk DNA, it's too big to fail, so many atheists and others still cling to it), the erroneous sign was removed. * Asiatic vs. European Honeybees: These two populations of bees have been separated supposedly for seven million years. A researcher decided to put the two together to see what would happen. What we should have here is a failure to communicate that would have resulted after their "language" evolved over millions of years. However, European and Asiatic honeybees are still able to communicate, putting into doubt the evolutionary claim that they were separated over "geologic periods." For more, see the Public Library of Science, Asiatic Honeybees Can Understand Dance Language of European Honeybees. (Oh yeah, and why don't fossils of poorly-formed honeycombs exist, from the millions of years before the bees and natural selection finally got the design right? Ha! Because they don't exist! :) Nautiloid proves rapid limestone formation.* Remember the Nautiloids: In the Grand Canyon there is a limestone layer averaging seven feet thick that runs the 277 miles of the canyon (and beyond) that covers hundreds of square miles and contains an average of one nautiloid fossil per square meter. Along with many other dead creatures in this one particular layer, 15% of these nautiloids were killed and then fossilized standing on their heads. Yes, vertically. They were caught in such an intense and rapid catastrophic flow that gravity was not able to cause all of their dead carcasses to fall over on their sides. Famed Mount St. Helens geologist Steve Austin is also the world's leading expert on nautiloid fossils and has worked in the canyon and presented his findings to the park's rangers at the invitation of National Park Service officials. Austin points out, as is true of many of the world's mass fossil graveyards, that this enormous nautiloid deposition provides indisputable proof of the extremely rapid formation of a significant layer of limestone near the bottom of the canyon, a layer like the others we've been told about, that allegedly formed at the bottom of a calm and placid sea with slow and gradual sedimentation. But a million nautiloids, standing on their heads, literally, would beg to differ. At our sister stie, RSR provides the relevant Geologic Society of America abstract, links, and video. * Now It's Allegedly Two Million Year-Old Leaves: "When we started pulling leaves out of the soil, that was surreal, to know that it's millions of years old..." sur-re-al: adjective: a bizarre mix of fact and fantasy. In this case, the leaves are the facts. Earth scientists from Ohio State and the University of Minnesota say that wood and leaves they found in the Canadian Arctic are at least two million years old, and perhaps more than ten million years old, even though the leaves are just dry and crumbly and the wood still burns! * Gold Precipitates in Veins in Less than a Second: After geologists submitted for decades to the assumption that each layer of gold would deposit at the alleged super slow rates of geologic process, the journal Nature Geoscience reports that each layer of deposition can occur within a few tenths of a second. Meanwhile, at the Lihir gold deposit in Papua New Guinea, evolutionists assumed the more than 20 million ounces of gold in the Lihir reserve took millions of years to deposit, but as reported in the journal Science, geologists can now demonstrate that the deposit could have formed in thousands of years, or far more quickly! Iceland's not-so-old Surtsey Island looks ancient.* Surtsey Island, Iceland: Of the volcanic island that formed in 1963, New Scientist reported in 2007 about Surtsey that "geographers... marvel that canyons, gullies and other land features that typically take tens of thousands or millions of years to form were created in less than a decade." Yes. And Sigurdur Thorarinsson, Iceland's chief geologist, wrote in the months after Surtsey formed, "that the time scale," he had been trained "to attach to geological developments is misleading." [For what is said to] take thousands of years... the same development may take a few weeks or even days here [including to form] a landscape... so varied and mature that it was almost beyond belief... wide sandy beaches and precipitous crags... gravel banks and lagoons, impressive cliffs… hollows, glens and soft undulating land... fractures and faultscarps, channels and screes… confounded by what met your eye... boulders worn by the surf, some of which were almost round... -Iceland's chief geologist * The Palouse River Gorge: In the southeast of Washington State, the Palouse River Gorge is one of many features formed rapidly by 500 cubic miles of water catastrophically released with the breaching of a natural dam in the Lake Missoula Flood (which gouged out the Scablands as described above). So, hard rock can be breached and eroded rapidly. * Leaf Shapes Identical for 190 Million Years? From Berkley.edu, "Ginkgo biloba... dates back to... about 190 million years ago... fossilized leaf material from the Tertiary species Ginkgo adiantoides is considered similar or even identical to that produced by modern Ginkgo biloba trees... virtually indistinguishable..." The literature describes leaf shapes as "spectacularly diverse" sometimes within a species but especially across the plant kingdom. Because all kinds of plants survive with all kinds of different leaf shapes, the conservation of a species retaining a single shape over alleged deep time is a telling issue. Darwin's theory is undermined by the unchanging shape over millions of years of a species' leaf shape. This lack of change, stasis in what should be an easily morphable plant trait, supports the broader conclusion that chimp-like creatures did not become human beings and all the other ambitious evolutionary creation of new kinds are simply imagined. (Ginkgo adiantoides and biloba are actually the same species. Wikipedia states, "It is doubtful whether the Northern Hemisphere fossil species of Ginkgo can be reliably distinguished." For oftentimes, as documented by Dr. Carl Werner in his Evolution: The Grand Experiment series, paleontogists falsely speciate identical specimens, giving different species names, even different genus names, to the fossil and living animals that appear identical.) * Box Canyon, Idaho: Geologists now think Box Canyon in Idaho, USA, was carved by a catastrophic flood and not slowly over millions of years with 1) huge plunge pools formed by waterfalls; 2) the almost complete removal of large basalt boulders from the canyon; 3) an eroded notch on the plateau at the top of the canyon; and 4) water scour marks on the basalt plateau leading to the canyon. Scientists calculate that the flood was so large that it could have eroded the whole canyon in as little as 35 days. See the journal Science, Formation of Box Canyon, Idaho, by Megaflood, and the Journal of Creation, and Creation Magazine. * Manganese Nodules Rapid Formation: Allegedly, as claimed at the Wikipedia entry from 2005 through 2021: "Nodule growth is one of the slowest of all geological phenomena – in the order of a centimeter over several million years." Wow, that would be slow! And a Texas A&M Marine Sciences technical slide presentation says, “They grow very slowly (mm/million years) and can be tens of millions of years old.” But according to a World Almanac documentary they have formed "around beer cans," said marine geologist Dr. John Yates in the 1997 video Universe Beneath the Sea: The Next Frontier. There are also reports of manganese nodules forming around ships sunk in the First World War. See more at at youngearth.com, at TOL, in the print edition of the Journal of Creation, and in this typical forum discussion with atheists (at the Chicago Cubs forum no less :). * "6,000 year-old" Mitochondrial Eve: As the Bible calls "Eve... the mother of all living" (Gen. 3:20), genetic researchers have named the one woman from whom all humans have descended "Mitochondrial Eve." But in a scientific attempt to date her existence, they openly admit that they included chimpanzee DNA in their analysis in order to get what they viewed as a reasonably old date of 200,000 years ago (which is still surprisingly recent from their perspective, but old enough not to strain Darwinian theory too much). But then as widely reported including by Science magazine, when they dropped the chimp data and used only actual human mutation rates, that process determined that Eve lived only six thousand years ago! In Ann Gibbon's Science article, "Calibrating the Mitochondrial Clock," rather than again using circular reasoning by assuming their conclusion (that humans evolved from ape-like creatures), they performed their calculations using actual measured mutation rates. This peer-reviewed journal then reported that if these rates have been constant, "mitochondrial Eve… would be a mere 6000 years old." See also the journal Nature and creation.com's "A shrinking date for Eve," and Walt Brown's assessment. Expectedly though, evolutionists have found a way to reject their own unbiased finding (the conclusion contrary to their self-interest) by returning to their original method of using circular reasoning, as reported in the American Journal of Human Genetics, "calibrating against recent evidence for the divergence time of humans and chimpanzees," to reset their mitochondrial clock back to 200,000 years. * Even Younger Y-Chromosomal Adam: (Although he should be called, "Y-Chromosomal Noah.") While we inherit our mtDNA only from our mothers, only men have a Y chromosome (which incidentally genetically disproves the claim that the fetus is "part of the woman's body," since the little boy's y chromosome could never be part of mom's body). Based on documented mutation rates on and the extraordinary lack o
