In ep 125 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, American voice actor Laura Doman joins Sam and Mark from Atlanta to talk about lingerie, the loss of a family pet and how bringing warm and fuzzy sometimes isn't easy because the script wording is hard and corporate. We have fun with Vikings, Egyptologists and witness a caterpillar (or could it be a worm) breaking out of her chrysalis.Our VO question this week is all about the skills you use in acting that can make a client's life so much easier.Get involved! Have you got a Wildcard suggestion that we should try or an idea for the show? Send it to us via Mark or Sam's social media or email it directly to podcast@britishvoiceover.co.ukScript 1While most fashion brands outsource photoshoots to agencies and hire studios by the hour, we do things very differently at Frill Seeker. Apart from manufacturing, everything happens right here at our HQ in the heart of Oxford, UK—from designing and sampling to picking and packing your orders. And tucked away at the top of our three-story building is a little creative sanctuary: our in-house photographic studio.Having our own studio means we're able to punch well above our weight when it comes to imagery. It gives us the freedom to shoot whenever inspiration strikes, without worrying about rental fees, scheduling, or hauling wardrobes across town.Script 2One of the most common questions we hear is:How do I know I'm getting MY pet back?This concern is completely valid, as the cremation process can feel mysterious to pet parents. Our answer reflects the foundation of our culture. One pet at a time. This commitment is supported by our proprietary software, Pet Tracker, and the honesty, integrity and trust demonstrated daily by our team members.Pet Tracker incorporates location barcodes throughout our care center to track your pet every step of the way.We'd love your feedback - and if you listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, hit the follow button today!**Listen to all of our podcasts here - you can also watch on YouTube, or say to your smart speaker "Play How Do You Say That?!"About our guest: Laura Doman is a Corporate turned Creative, a recovered cubicle dweller who found her true calling later in life as a voice and on-camera actor, living her childhood dreams in film, TV, commercials, and industrials and behind the mic voicing commercials, characters, and all things corporate.

In deze aflevering van De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast spreken hosts Ronald Kers (CNCF Ambassador) en Jan Stomphorst (Solutions Architect bij ACC ICT) met Evelien Schellekens, Solutions Architect bij Elastic. We ontmoeten haar tijdens een live opname op de Veluwe, waar de sfeer informeel en energiek is – een perfecte setting voor een spontaan en inhoudelijk gesprek over Kubernetes, logging, observability en certificering.Van astronautendroom naar Kubernetes-certificeringen Evelien vertelt hoe haar IT-carrière begon met het open schroeven van computers samen met haar vader. Inmiddels heeft ze haar sporen verdiend met meerdere Kubernetes-certificeringen – vier in drie dagen tijd! Ze deelt haar aanpak, hoe ze zich voorbereidt, waarom AI soms helpt (en soms juist niet), en wat haar dreef om zich in recordtempo te certificeren.Elastic: meer dan Elasticsearch Ze legt uit hoe Elastic geëvolueerd is tot een veelzijdig Search AI Platform met drie hoofdoplossingen:Search: van productzoekmachines tot document indexingObservability: metrics, logs, tracing, profilingSecurity: SIEM, endpoint protection en anomaly detectionElastic draait perfect op Kubernetes met behulp van de Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) operator. We bespreken best practices zoals het gebruik van CRD's, het vermijden van single points of failure, en waarom drie master nodes het minimum zijn voor een productiecluster.Logging zonder sidecars Een interessant deel van het gesprek gaat over logging: hoe je zonder sidecars volledige observability kunt realiseren via agents zoals Filebeat of Elastic Agent. Evelien legt uit hoe je debug-logging onder controle houdt met ingest pipelines en log-retentiebeleid, en waarom sommige developers nét iets te enthousiast debug inschakelen.De toekomst: OpenTelemetry Volgens Evelien ligt de toekomst van observability in OpenTelemetry, een CNCF-project dat snel aan populariteit wint. Net zoals Kubernetes nu de standaard is voor container orchestration, ziet zij OpenTelemetry als de aanstaande standaard voor vendor-neutrale observability én security-integratie.Eindconclusie Evelien combineert technische diepgang met een heldere uitleg van concepten. Of het nu gaat om logbeheer, schaalbaarheid op Kubernetes, of de rol van Elastic binnen moderne DevOps-praktijken – deze aflevering zit vol praktische inzichten én een flinke dosis energie.Stuur ons een bericht.Dutch Cloud Native Day 2025Koop je tickets met kortingscode: Community30 en ontvang 30% korting! https://acc-ict.com/liveSupport the showLike and subscribe!

EASY LISTENING DEP'T.: The New York Times would not allow itself to write a news headline asserting that the president is abusing his power, but it's perfectly happy to go fishing for a quote that will say that. In this case, the fishing line is still visible, as what Trevor Potter, the president of the Campaign Legal Center and a former Republican chairman of the Federal Election Commission says, specifically is, “and yes, this is an example of Trump publicly and improperly threatening,” etc. which points back to his having been asked by the reporter to affirm the proposition that Trump is abusing his power. So he got the quote, the quote goes in quotation marks, and the Times simply reports it, as a thing in the world that someone factually spoke.

What if you could use ElasticSearch serverless? While at Build, Carl and Richard chatted with Ken Exner about the new announcements around Elastic providing serverless storage and search! Ken talks about paying for only the data you move and store with serverless, rather than needing to operate any infrastructure for Elastic. The conversation digs into the potential of Elastic in Azure AI Foundry to provide ultra-fast access to current company data for your LLM implementations. Elastic did vector databases before LLMs made them essential for RAG - and you can take advantage of it!

In this episode, Bill Banham talks with Marina Farthouat, the new Vice President, People at Oyster - the global employment platform that enables companies to hire, pay, and care for distributed teams. Marina brings a refreshing perspective to the HRchat Show about transforming workplace norms through remote and distributed teams. Drawing from her diverse background spanning investment banking to startups, Marina shares why her most connected workplace experiences have consistently been in remote organizations."Talent doesn't have a nationality," Marina asserts, challenging traditional location-based hiring approaches. She makes a compelling case for distributed teams as both a talent strategy and a resilience measure. When recent blackouts hit Spain and Portugal, Oyster's globally distributed workforce demonstrated exactly this kind of operational continuity—shifting activities seamlessly to unaffected regions.What makes Marina's perspective particularly valuable is her holistic view of remote work benefits. Beyond the usual flexibility talking points, she highlights how remote arrangements positively impact families, especially children who no longer lose parents to long commutes. She dismantles the myth that remote workers feel disconnected, explaining how digital platforms actually create more egalitarian access to leadership and information than traditional office environments where proximity matters.The conversation tackles economic concerns head-on, addressing fears that global hiring simply shifts jobs to lower-cost regions. Marina offers a more nuanced view: global talent acquisition isn't about replacement but expansion and resilience. She emphasizes that startups particularly benefit from access to diverse talent pools while managing burn rates effectively.By the way, if you enjoy this conversation and want to learn more about Marina's team and some of the people challenges they tackle, check out episode 338 with Oyster Co-founder Jack Mardack.Marina leads the company's people strategy with a focus on building a human-centric, inclusive, and sustainable culture across a global workforce.She brings a wealth of experience leading People functions in remote organizations, most recently at ClickHouse and Elastic.

Martin Mao is the co-founder and CEO of Chronosphere, an observability platform built for the modern containerized world. Prior to Chronosphere, Martin led the observability team at Uber, tackling the unique challenges of large-scale distributed systems. With a background as a technical lead at AWS, Martin brings unique experience in building scalable and reliable infrastructure. In this episode, he shares the story behind Chronosphere, its approach to cost-efficient observability, and the future of monitoring in the age of AI.What you'll learn:The specific observability challenges that arise when transitioning to containerized environments and microservices architectures, including increased data volume and new problem sources.How Chronosphere addresses the issue of wasteful data storage by providing features that identify and optimize useful data, ensuring customers only pay for valuable insights.Chronosphere's strategy for competing with observability solutions offered by major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, focusing on specialized end-to-end product.The innovative ways in which Chronosphere's products, including their observability platform and telemetry pipeline, improve the process of detecting and resolving problems.How Chronosphere is leveraging AI and knowledge graphs to normalize unstructured data, enhance its analytics engine, and provide more effective insights to customers.Why targeting early adopters and tech-forward companies is beneficial for product innovation, providing valuable feedback for further improvements and new features. How observability requirements are changing with the rise of AI and LLM-based applications, and the unique data collection and evaluation criteria needed for GPUs.Takeaways:Chronosphere originated from the observability challenges faced at Uber, where existing solutions couldn't handle the scale and complexity of a containerized environment.Cost efficiency is a major differentiator for Chronosphere, offering significantly better cost-benefit ratios compared to other solutions, making it attractive for companies operating at scale.The company's telemetry pipeline product can be used with existing observability solutions like Splunk and Elastic to reduce costs without requiring a full platform migration.Chronosphere's architecture is purposely single-tenanted to minimize coupled infrastructures, ensuring reliability and continuous monitoring even when core components go down.AI-driven insights for observability may not benefit from LLMs that are trained on private business data, which can be diverse and may cause models to overfit to a specific case.Many tech-forward companies are using the platform to monitor model training which involves GPU clusters and a new evaluation criterion that is unlike general CPU workload.The company found a huge potential by scrubbing the diverse data and building knowledge graphs to be used as a source of useful information when problems are recognized.Subscribe to Startup Project for more engaging conversations with leading entrepreneurs!→ Email updates: ⁠https://startupproject.substack.com/⁠#StartupProject #Chronosphere #Observability #Containers #Microservices #Uber #AWS #Monitoring #CloudNative #CostOptimization #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #LLM #MLOps #Entrepreneurship #Podcast #YouTube #Tech #Innovation

We had the pleasure of sitting down with Luis Mesquita—physiotherapist, S&C coach, and co-founder of The Peak training facility—whose deep dive into eccentric strength and deceleration performance truly stopped us in our tracks. In this episode, we explore the science behind "putting on the brakes" and why it might just be the performance edge cricketers are missing.You'll Learn:How deceleration and eccentric strength affect everything from sprinting to bowling, and why the best athletes have the best “brakes.”Training methods to develop force quickly without overwhelming athletes—critical for fast bowlers and injury prevention.How excess fat and poor fueling sabotage athletic performance, even among elite athletes.Why eccentric work in the gym complements—but never replaces—sports-specific training on the pitch.Key Takeaways:Eccentric strength is foundational for elite movement: Athletes who can absorb force quickly—like triple jumpers—perform better and stay healthier, especially in high-impact sports like cricket.Jump tests reveal hidden weaknesses: Many cricketers underperform in basic tests like the broad jump, indicating poor force production and transfer—issues that limit bowling speed and power.Different athletes need different strength strategies: Not everyone benefits from max strength gains. Elastic, reactive athletes often thrive with speed and plyometric work over heavy lifts.Body composition is a performance multiplier: Lean athletes not only move better—they recover faster. Poor body comp often signals deeper issues in professionalism and mindset.High-quality reps beat high-volume grinds: Intensity trumps volume when developing speed and reactive strength. Fewer, sharper reps with maximal focus deliver better results than “junk volume.”Quotes:“You don't absorb force—you produce force to break.” “Better athletes make better cricketers.” “Technique and physical capacity can't live without each other.” Find Luís on:Instagram: @luismmesquitaFind James on: Instagram: @jamesbreese Twitter: @_jamesbreese To learn more about Cricket Matters and download your FREE copy of The High-Performance Handbook, please visit www.cricketmatters.com

The pace of change is accelerating in the market, which means we can always take a step back to understand where those changes have come from and how that drives business activities.Bill Wright, head of global government affairs at Elastic, joins for this episode to explain how the fundamentals of the Trump administration's approach to artificial intelligence and cybersecurity line up with those from the Biden Administration.Yes many things are different, but several others are not as well. For Wright, this shows just how critical cyber and AI are to the federal government. As he tells Editor Nick Wakeman, the Trump administration is looking to expand the government's AI and cyber strategy with a greater emphasis on commercial technology.And of course, speed and efficiency are key points Wright addresses too. As he explains, understanding where customers have come from and where they want to go is step one in finding growth opportunities across today's market.Here are the tech takeaways from Trump's budget proposal‘Just wait' to see how CISA reforms play out, DHS head tells cyber communityIndustry awaits how OMB AI guidance on paper will be implemented in practiceWhat the federal workforce could look like with AI government employees

Marketing isn't just about tactics, it's about strategy. And most times, the smartest move is playing the long game.That's the strategy behind Settlers of Catan, a board game built on resource trading, calculated risks, and thinking three steps ahead. In this episode, we're drawing inspiration from its gameplay with our special guest, Jen Grant, Chief Marketing Officer at Dialpad.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from staying focused on their own path, anticipating competitor reactions, and building a diversified strategy that drives long-term growth. Because in both Settlers of Catan and marketing, the real power play is thinking beyond your next move.About our guest, Jen GrantBefore joining Dialpad as Chief Marketing Officer in October 2024, Jen served on the Dialpad Board of Directors, held C-level positions at Cube and Appify, led Looker's marketing, drove the rebrand of Elastic, and grew Box to an industry-leading enterprise content company. Jen holds an MBA from Wharton, a BA from Princeton, and has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Princeton Technology leaders.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Settlers of Catan:Play your own game. In Catan, constantly reacting to what others are doing can leave you scrambling. The same applies in B2B marketing. Jen encourages a more grounded approach: “You do much better, sort of very quietly focusing on your own growth.” Instead of chasing competitors or mimicking market leaders, build a strategy that aligns with your own long-term vision. Because sustainable growth isn't won through noise, but through quiet, deliberate moves.Always be forecasting. Winning at Catan means thinking ahead, not just about your next move, but the ones after that. Jen says,  “I actually really love the strategy part of it. Thinking about, okay, we're about to launch a particular feature. What's that gonna make the competition do?” In a competitive landscape, it's not enough to plan for what you control; you also need to anticipate how others will react. Great marketers operate like strategic game players. Don't bet on just one road to victory. Catan punishes one-dimensional players. You can't win by hoarding sheep alone, you need balance. Jen explains, “It is never one thing…It's all of the things at the same time, executed perfectly well.” Diversification isn't just about spreading risk; it's about orchestrating a full-spectrum effort that compounds over time. The most impactful marketing isn't siloed, it's symphonic.Quotes*“The thing about Catan, and other board games, this might come into play too, but you could potentially spend all of your time trying to crush the other players…And when you play a game a lot, you're like, oh, I'm gonna try this strategy this time, see what happens. And one of the things that I've definitely never seen work is if you focus all your energy on messing with other people. You do much better sort of very quietly, focusing on your own growth.”*“ I actually think the reason I like the game so much is the game theory of thinking ahead, 2, 3, 4 steps ahead. And so you're thinking how am I gonna achieve my goals, but what are they gonna do when I do, whatever it is, buy this road. I love that part of the game. I love thinking out ahead, okay, if we do this, then what are they gonna do? And for marketing, I think we often get caught up in the fun, creative part of marketing. But I actually really love the strategy part of it, of thinking about, okay, we're about to launch a particular feature. What's that gonna make the competition do? Are they gonna freak out? Are we kind of catching up to them? And maybe we shouldn't be so loud about it 'cause we should have had this before. All of the different implications of what you do in a market and then how the competition actually responds.”*“ So the thing about Catan at the very beginning of the game is that there are numbers on every square. And so you get to choose two places to put your little settlement, and there are three numbers for each of those settlements. So right there, you have six numbers, and the numbers are on resources. And what's really important, and many people don't think about this, is you wanna have all of the resources available to you on numbers that get rolled frequently, but you can't be on only two numbers. And it kind of speaks to diversifying tactics. So that to me goes right to marketing. Oftentimes, we'll get CEOs or CFOs, probably more likely. Just find that one thing that works really well and put all your budget into the one thing, and you're like, it is never one thing. Never, never, never is it one thing. It's all of the things at the same time executed perfectly well.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Jen Grant, Chief Marketing Officer at Dialpad[02:10] Why Settlers of Catan[03:08] The Role of CMO at Dialpad[04:52] Dialpad's Evolution[09:19] Dialpad's Super Bowl Ad[10:40] Origins of Settlers of Catan[16:23] B2B Marketing Lessons from Settlers of Catan[49:47] How Jen is Investing in Brand and Content[56:25] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Jen on LinkedInLearn more about DialpadAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES—Psychedelia has an image problem. At least that's what editor and journalist Hillary Brenhouse realized after she saw through the haze.Both in art and literature, psychedelia was way more than tie-dye t-shirts and magic mushrooms. Instead of letting that idea fade into the mist, she kept thinking about it. And the more she looked, the more she realized maybe she should create a magazine to address this. And so she did.Elastic is a magazine of psychedelic art and literature. It says so right there on the cover of the beautiful first issue that just launched. So this is not your standard issue lit or art mag. After all, this is one backed by … Harvard, and UC Berkeley, and a couple of major foundations. Hillary Brenhouse has learned a lot about the craft and the business of making and selling magazines this past year. Lucky for us, she and her team are quick studies. You can see it on every page of Elastic. And she also may have redefined the literary magazine. Without a single tie-dyed t-shirt or magic mushroom in the lot, man.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Zoekfunctionaliteit is een fundamenteel onderdeel van de moderne digitale wereld. Elastic, het bedrijf achter Elastic Search, voorziet daarin met een platform dat meer doet dan enkel door data bladeren. Elastic Search stelt gebruikers in staat razendsnel complexe queries uit te voeren op grote datasets, iets waar traditionele databases moeite mee hebben. Dat maakt het niet alleen geschikt voor webapplicaties en e-commerceplatforms, maar ook voor beveiligingssystemen en operationele monitoring. Bedrijven als Uber, Netflix en Wikipedia maken dan ook gebruik van Elastic-producten.

Zoekfunctionaliteit is een fundamenteel onderdeel van de moderne digitale wereld. Elastic, het bedrijf achter Elastic Search, voorziet daarin met een platform dat meer doet dan enkel door data bladeren. Elastic Search stelt gebruikers in staat razendsnel complexe queries uit te voeren op grote datasets, iets waar traditionele databases moeite mee hebben. Dat maakt het niet alleen geschikt voor webapplicaties en e-commerceplatforms, maar ook voor beveiligingssystemen en operationele monitoring. Bedrijven als Uber, Netflix en Wikipedia maken dan ook gebruik van Elastic-producten. De oorsprong van het bedrijf ligt in Amsterdam, waar de basis werd gelegd voor wat uiteindelijk een wereldwijd opererende speler is geworden. Het idee voor Elastic Search ontstond uit een persoonlijke behoefte: oprichter Shay Banon wilde een tool bouwen om recepten voor zijn vrouw makkelijk doorzoekbaar te maken. Daaruit groeide een open-sourceproject dat uitgroeide tot een infrastructuurproduct dat in duizenden bedrijven wordt ingezet. Toch brengt die open-source-aanpak ook uitdagingen met zich mee. Elastic heeft in 2021 een wijziging doorgevoerd in het open-sourcemodel, juist omdat grote cloudproviders hun technologie gebruikten zonder bij te dragen aan de ontwikkeling. Die stap was voor Elastic noodzakelijk om zichzelf duurzaam te kunnen blijven ontwikkelen. De balans tussen openheid en commerciële haalbaarheid blijft daarmee een voortdurende afweging. In een wereld waarin hyperscalers domineren, is de vraag gerechtvaardigd of puur open-sourcemodellen levensvatbaar blijven. Inmiddels is Elastic ook meegegaan in de golf van kunstmatige intelligentie. De toevoeging van vector search en AI-koppelingen aan de bestaande zoektechnologie maakt nieuwe toepassingen mogelijk, zoals semantisch zoeken of realtime analyses op ongeordende datasets. Daarmee sluit Elastic aan op de groeiende behoefte aan AI-native infrastructuur, zonder zijn kernproduct uit het oog te verliezen. De organisatie zelf is ingericht zonder traditioneel hoofdkantoor. Het bedrijf is meer dan 7 miljard dollar waard, maar kent een sterk gedistribueerd team. Dat blijkt goed te werken, zeker in een post-pandemische wereld waar locatie minder bepalend is voor samenwerking. Wel blijft de vraag hoe Europa zich verhoudt tot de mondiale techgiganten. Vanuit Nederland is Elastic uitgegroeid tot een voorbeeld van internationale schaalbaarheid, maar het Europese ecosysteem mist volgens Elastic soms de slagkracht om écht door te pakken.

Not every messy piece of code needs a refactor. Noémi Ványi, Senior Software Engineer at Xata, joins Robby to discuss how to develop the intuition to know when refactoring is truly necessary and when it's just unnecessary churn. She shares her approach to balancing pragmatism and maintainability, how product teams and developers can work better together, and why developer autonomy is key to sustainable software.Drawing from her experience working on both open-source and closed-source projects, Noémi reflects on the unique challenges each presents—whether it's dealing with unresponsive GitHub issue reporters, handling unanticipated user behaviors, or navigating large-scale refactors in existing systems. She also shares her philosophy on technical debt: not all of it needs to be paid down, and some of it can actually be strategic.Robby and Noémi also explore the importance of writing meaningful commit messages, the hidden benefits of reviewing open-source pull requests, and why developers should stop waiting for permission to clean up their codebases.Episode Highlights[00:01:00] The characteristics of well-maintained software: modular design, good tests, and observability.[00:02:00] Open source vs. closed source software: Why communication matters more than you think.[00:04:50] Not all technical debt is worth paying down—how to decide when to refactor.[00:06:20] Developing engineering intuition: How experience shapes decision-making.[00:11:08] Lessons from refactoring a log processing system at Elastic.[00:17:09] Strategies for modernizing legacy systems without unnecessary rewrites.[00:19:52] Why maintainability is a business requirement, not an afterthought.[00:24:03] Should developers ask for permission to clean up code or just do it?[00:27:00] The impact of good commit messages and pull request documentation (GitHub PR Templates).[00:30:00] Are issue templates in open source a helpful guardrail or a barrier?[00:32:00] How to gain autonomy as a developer and advocate for technical improvements.[00:39:00] Noémi's advice: Only fix problems that are actually problems.Resources MentionedNoémi Ványi's WebsiteNoémi Ványi on GitHubElasticGitHub Pull Request TemplatesGitHubBook RecommendationLost in Thought: The Hidden Pleasures of an Intellectual Life by Zena Hitz

Brian Cox and Robin Ince expand their knowledge of elasticity with Olympian Bryony Page, comedian Jessica Fostekew & experts Dr Anna Ploszajski and Prof James Busfield. What makes stretchy things stretch? Together our panel journey through different applications of elastic materials and examine, at the molecular level, what happens when we stretch a material and crucially what causes it to return to its original shape. This is especially pertinent to our guest Olympic and British champion trampolinist Bryony Page who has capitalised on elasticity in her 24 year long career. We discover that the bounce of a trampoline mainly comes from the elasticity of steel and how dependent this is on temperature. Cold temperatures are not only treacherous for trampolines; we explore how the cold proved fatal to the elastic components of both the Titanic and the Challenger space shuttle.Plus we hear how scientists sometimes just can't beat nature; natural rubber and spiders silk are two such cases. Anna Ploszajski takes us through some of the more inventive techniques scientists have engineered to produced more of these natural materials, including genetically engineering goats to be milked for silk.Producer: Melanie Brown Exec Producer: Alexandra Feachem Researcher: Olivia JaniBBC Studios Audio production

For today's episode, we dive into Elastic Chain and the core principles of ZK technology. Imagine if interacting across blockchains was as simple as sending an email - no fragmented bridges, no multiple wallets. That's exactly what ZK Sync's Elastic Chain aims to deliver. At its core, Elastic Chain is built on a powerful premise: scalability, interoperability, and user experience can coexist seamlessly. Through its modular approach, builders can create custom chains with their preferred configurations - from sequencers to data availability models - while maintaining fluid interoperability across the ecosystem. The momentum is already building, with Abstract, TreasureDAO, and others developing consumer-focused chains within the Elastic Chain framework. The platform empowers builders with true sovereignty, letting them choose whether to opt into shared models while fostering healthy competition with other rollup clusters like Superchain and AggLayer. But key questions remain: Do we need another interoperability solution? How will Elastic Chain compete with existing standards? When can we expect it to launch? Join us as we unpack the Elastic Chain story and explore these critical questions.

Either way, it's not a great place to end up.  On Tuesday they announced the acquisition of Kubecost, a FinOps startup that helps teams monitor and optimize their K8 clusters, with a focus on efficiency – and ultimately cost.  This acquisition follows the acquisitions of Apptio, Turbonomic, and Instana over the years.  Kubecost is the company behind OpenCost; a vendor-neutral open source project that forms part of the core Kubecost commercial offering.   OpenCost is part of the Cloud Native Computing Foundations cohort of sandbox projects. Kubecost is expected to be integrated into IBM’s FinOps Suite, which combines Cloudability and Turbonomic.  There is also speculation that it might make its way to OpenShift, too. 02:26 Jsutin- “…so KubeCost lives inside of Kubernetes, and basically has the ability to see how much CPU, how much memory they’re using, then calculate basically the price of the EC2 broken down into the different pods and services.” AI Is Going Great –

Today's podcast features Bill Hartman and Chris Wicus. Bill Hartman is a physical therapist and in-demand educator with his modern approach to human mechanics and training. Bill has been an influential figure to many guests on this podcast, as well as my own views on training. Chris Wicus is a health and performance professional with 15 years of experience, a former professional ultimate frisbee player, and a 2nd degree black belt in karate. He has coached a wide variety of athletes across 17 sports and has been mentored by many top experts in the field. Bill and Chris host the “Reconsider” podcast together and speak on various cutting-edge approaches to human movement in a way that prompts thinking on existing processes in the field, and how to move forward with current understandings of training and biomechanics. So often in physical training, athletes are told to master the basics of “Squat, Hinge, Push, Pull, Etc.”, but unfortunately, within this framework, there is little to no consideration of how various body types have the capacity to carry out those lifts, and what impact intensifying those movements will have on indivdiuals. On today's show, Bill and Chris speak to the nature of the big lifts (squat, bench, deadlift), and how both “Narrow” and “Wide” ISA athletes (elastic and muscular) will be able to process those movements. We talk about the helical nature of our human design, and how it impacts movement preferences. We also discuss specific strength strategies for athletes who are more narrow and wide, and how to better tailor one's overall strength program to one's athletic needs.

So then I start just running more. And by the end of my athletic career was just mostly sprinting and running and not so much of, like, the slow grindy stuff." – Chris Wicus "You look at the difference between 100 meters sprinter, an 800 meters runner, and then a 5K runner, and you're going to see this progressive difference in body type – Bill Hartman “At all measures of scale in a human, all levels of scale. So down to your DNA. So DNA is structured helically. A collagen fiber is structured helically. All of your joints move on helical pathways. So we are helically designed” - Bill Hartman “And so it's not, that narrows can't do deadlifts, but we're going to make modifications that are going to make it more ideal” - Bill Hartman "Too much force production because of the way that we produce force takes away something else that I needed." - Bill Hartman “The best, the most athletic I ever got, I had, like, a 38 inch vertical at one point,
