In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jessica Talisman, founder of Contextually and creator of the Ontology Pipeline, about the deep connections between knowledge management, library science, and the emerging world of AI systems. Together they explore how controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and metadata shape meaning for both humans and machines, why librarianship has lessons for modern tech, and how cultural context influences what we call “knowledge.” Jessica also discusses the rise of AI librarians, the problem of “AI slop,” and the need for collaborative, human-centered knowledge ecosystems. You can learn more about her work at Ontology Pipeline and find her writing and talks on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman to discuss Contextually, ontologies, and how controlled vocabularies ground scalable systems.05:00 They compare philosophy's ontology with information science, linking meaning, categorization, and sense-making for humans and machines.10:00 Jessica explains why SQL and Postgres can't capture knowledge complexity and how neuro-symbolic systems add context and interoperability.15:00 The talk turns to library science's split from big data in the 1990s, metadata schemas, and the FAIR principles of findability and reuse.20:00 They discuss neutrality, bias in corporate vocabularies, and why “touching grass” matters for reconciling internal and external meanings.25:00 Conversation shifts to interpretability, cultural context, and how Western categorical thinking differs from China's contextual knowledge.30:00 Jessica introduces process knowledge, documentation habits, and the danger of outsourcing how-to understanding.35:00 They explore knowledge as habit, the tension between break-things culture and library design thinking, and early AI experiments.40:00 Libraries' strategic use of AI, metadata precision, and the emerging role of AI librarians take focus.45:00 Stewart connects data labeling, Surge AI, and the economics of good data with Jessica's call for better knowledge architectures.50:00 They unpack content lifecycle, provenance, and user context as the backbone of knowledge ecosystems.55:00 The talk closes on automation limits, human-in-the-loop design, and Jessica's vision for collaborative consulting through Contextually.Key InsightsOntology is about meaning, not just data structure. Jessica Talisman reframes ontology from a philosophical abstraction into a practical tool for knowledge management—defining how things relate and what they mean within systems. She explains that without clear categories and shared definitions, organizations can't scale or communicate effectively, either with people or with machines.Controlled vocabularies are the foundation of AI literacy. Jessica emphasizes that building a controlled vocabulary is the simplest and most powerful way to disambiguate meaning for AI. Machines, like people, need context to interpret language, and consistent terminology prevents the “hallucinations” that occur when systems lack semantic grounding.Library science predicted today's knowledge crisis. Stewart and Jessica trace how, in the 1990s, tech went down the path of “big data” while librarians quietly built systems of metadata, ontologies, and standards like schema.org. Today's AI challenges—interoperability, reliability, and information overload—mirror problems library science has been solving for decades.Knowledge is culturally shaped. Drawing from Patrick Lambe's work, Jessica notes that Western knowledge systems are category-driven, while Chinese systems emphasize context. This cultural distinction explains why global AI models often miss nuance or moral voice when trained on limited datasets.Process knowledge is disappearing. The West has outsourced its “how-to” knowledge—what Jessica calls process knowledge—to other countries. Without documentation habits, we risk losing the embodied know-how that underpins manufacturing, engineering, and even creative work.Automation cannot replace critical thinking. Jessica warns against treating AI as “room service.” Automation can support, but not substitute, human judgment. Her own experience with a contract error generated by an AI tool underscores the importance of review, reflection, and accountability in human–machine collaboration.Collaborative consulting builds knowledge resilience. Through her consultancy, Contextually, Jessica advocates for “teaching through doing”—helping teams build their own ontologies and vocabularies rather than outsourcing them. Sustainable knowledge systems, she argues, depend on shared understanding, not just good technology.
Ever been inspired by a teacher who taught 100 years ago? I have to say that it's a new one for me! In this episode I'm reviewing "The Thread That Runs So True" by Jesse Stuart. Surprisingly, this 1949 autobiography of a Kentucky mountain school teacher impacted me more than I expected. What struck me most: Stuart's experiences are extremely relatable. (Maybe you haven't been able to sleep at night either because you're trying to figure out how to help your beginner students?!) He valued people – his students, his teachers, the community in which he taught, and himself. He wanted his students to learn but not just facts and figures. Learning also included responsibility, respect, and relationship. Despite the century between us, his struggles and joys as an educator feel very present. And his story reminded me why I teach — not just to cover pronunciation rules and vocabulary but to build confidence, create meaningful connections, and help students express their true selves. My biggest takeaway? I'm on the right path. And after 20+ years of teaching, that validation from across a century means a lot. Listen in to hear about Stuart's leadership qualities, his surprising teaching philosophy, and why this book belongs on every English language teacher's reading list.

This episode of the Blue Dragon podcast features Jason Brown, a seasoned cybersecurity leader, former CISO/vCISO, and author, discussing his book, "Unveiling NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0". The conversation centers on the NIST CSF 2.0, emphasizing the critical addition of the "Govern" function. Jason frames the CSF as an excellent introductory framework for building a cybersecurity program, often used in conjunction with the Center for Internet Security (CIS) controls. A key theme is moving cybersecurity beyond a technical "IT problem" and a "checkbox exercise" to a strategic business value driver that builds trust and unlocks revenue. Both speakers highlight the growing global focus on supply chain security (NIST CSF, NIS2, DORA) and the rising personal liability and accountability for CISOs and executives in the US and Europe. The discussion concludes with a deep dive into the importance of a well-structured three-layered documentation approach (Policy, Standard, and Procedure) and a formalized document lifecycle to maintain organizational security maturity.LINKS➰ https://bluedragonpodcast.com➰ linkedin.com/in/jasonbrown17➰ jason@jasonbrown.us➰ https://jasonbrown.us➰ Book: bit.ly/Unveiling-NISTCHAPTERS(00:00:00) 00:00:00 Introduction (Guest: Jason Brown, Author) (00:03:39) Guest Background & Path to Writing NIST CSF 2.0 Book (00:05:20) Core of NIST CSF 2.0: The addition of the 'Govern' function (00:06:34) Primary Driver for CSF 2.0: Supply Chain Governance (00:08:05) CSF's Role: An introductory framework, often paired with CIS Controls (00:09:21) Security as a Value Driver: Moving past compliance for revenue and trust (00:11:48) CISO's Role: Building relationships for program and financial support (00:14:00) Common Mistakes: Failing to assess gaps or focus on the 'how' (00:15:48) Overview of the Six CSF Functions (Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover) (00:17:43) Prioritizing Governance: It is the hardest step due to changing people (00:19:32) Overcoming Governance Hurdles: Dialogue with Executive Leadership Teams (ELT) (00:21:20) Executive Accountability: Personal liability and fines (US SEC, EU NIS2) (00:25:54) Communicating Value: Use Enterprise Risk instead of technical jargon (00:27:53) Security as a Business Problem: Not just an IT problem (Jaguar example) (00:30:41) Engaging Leaders: Involving department heads in identifying critical assets (ID.BE) (00:32:19) Future CSF Evolution: Expected integration of AI and emerging technologies (00:33:36) Three-Layered Documentation: Policy (what), Standard (guidelines), Procedure (how-to) (00:37:05) The Open Policy Framework: Jason's structured documentation approach (00:38:02) Document Lifecycle: Annual review prevents reliance on outdated, breakable standards (00:40:04) Personal Updates: Break from writing for family time (00:40:29) Automotive Industry Security: Brief mention of OT concernsKEYPOINTS1. NIST CSF 2.0's "Govern" function is key for a complete cyber program; it is the most critical starting point due to the challenge of changing people.2. Cybersecurity must be framed as a business value driver and revenue generator, moving past a simple compliance checklist mentality.3. The CISO's role is strategic: acting as a business enabler by communicating security needs via enterprise risk to the ELT.4. Global regulations (NIS2, SEC) are increasing personal liability for executives, making robust governance mandatory, not optional.5. A strong governance structure uses three distinct layers: Policy (public commitment), Standard (confidential guidelines), and Procedure (technical configuration).6. Security documents must have a formal lifecycle with annual reviews to ensure standards remain current and effective against threats.
In this episode, Helen and Ana Paula Biazon Rocha discuss Ana's journey in ELT, emphasizing her passion for pronunciation and teacher development. She started teaching at 17 in Brazil, influenced by her family of educators and legacy. Anna's interest in pronunciation stemmed from personal challenges and feedback from teacher trainers – while seeking to improve, she discovered a passion. She highlights her shift from a teacher-centered to a student-centered approach, the importance of human connection in learning, and the need for us teachers to feel that we're not alone but part of a teaching community. Ana's career evolved through self-study, workshops, and courses, including a Cambridge Delta and an MA in TESOL. She says that students become teachers who become students… The learning cycle is ongoing! Ana advises novice teachers and those coming to another country to learn, grow, and teach to believe in themselves, study, and embrace continuous learning. Be an open teacher-learner and find your passions!Ana mentions:- Cambridge Delta- MA in Applied Linguistics - University of Sheffield- MA in TESOL - University of Sheffield(Ana completed the MA in Applied Linguistics with TESOL in the academic year 2017-2018. After the COVID pandemic, this course was split into two: MA in Applied Linguistics and MA in TESOL, so her original Masters course does not exist anymore at the University of Sheffield. Students choose one or the other now.)- An article Ana wrote: MA student Ana Paula Biazon Rocha on why she chose Sheffield(Side note: This goes back when she was interviewed by the University of Sheffield to talk about my life as an MA student in 2018.

In this episode, Hemish was joined by Karin von Hodenberg, VP of Quality at Monte Rosa Therapeutics.Karin has repeatedly built quality systems from the ground up across med device and biotech, and she translates that experience into practical, phase-appropriate guidance for early teams.Karin's journey is anything but typical: a business background, supply chain and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt training led her into quality at GE Healthcare and Philips, before moving into biotech with bluebird bio during rapid growth. She's since led in several startups and now at Monte Rosa, where she's implemented validated systems early and embedded a genuine culture of quality across GxP.She talks about the following:Why a non-traditional path (business → supply chain → Six Sigma) can be a superpower in Quality.From paper to validated eQMS: how bluebird bio migrated training & documents and why they verified 100% of records.Trigger points for moving beyond paper: signs you're outgrowing a doc control room and how to stand up DMS/LMS/LIMS early.Phase-appropriate, risk-based thinking: using data, science and regulations - without becoming a blocker.Making quality ‘cool': education, storytelling, and visible sponsorship from ELT.Leading without fear: replacing “inspection readiness day” with “inspection readiness every day.”Critical thinking over checkbox compliance: hiring, interview questions, and building the muscle across teams.Working with functional heads: cadence of 1:1s, being a partner (not a gate), and influencing through solutions.Roadmaps that breathe: Karin's 3‑year plan, quarterly outcomes, and how transparency sustains engagement in uncertainty.AI pragmatism in quality: where note-taking and drafting help now - and where human judgment still rules.Karin is a thoughtful, pragmatic Quality leader who balances compliance with business value - bringing people with her as she builds systems that last.Thank you Karin for sharing your incredible journey.Hope everyone enjoys the show!
Nike's Principal Data Engineer Ashok Singamaneni joins Benjamin and Eldad to discuss his open-source data quality framework, Spark Expectations. Ashok explains how the tool, which was inspired by Databricks DLT Expectations, shifts data quality checks to before the data is written to a final table. This proactive approach uses row-level, aggregation-level, and query data quality checks to fail jobs, drop bad records, or alert teams - ultimately saving huge costs on recompute and engineering effort in mission-critical data pipelines.

Average search times have historically stretched from 18 hours with a VFR flight plan to more than 60 hours with no plan at all. Even today, two to three hours is considered fast for locating a downed aircraft. ELTs: The Critical DifferenceCyriel stresses the enormous difference between old 121.5 MHz ELTs and modern 406 MHz beacons. The older units provide only a vague signal and are prone to false alarms, often ignored. A properly registered 406 beacon, by contrast, transmits GPS coordinates via satellite, dramatically reducing search times. But here's the catch: as many as half are mis-registered, with outdated or missing phone numbers. That makes even the best ELT nearly useless until rescuers conduct a blind search. Flight Plans, Contacts, and ADS-BFiling a flight plan helps, but only if searchers can reach someone who knows your intended route. Cyriel urges pilots to list an emergency contact not on the aircraft in the remarks section—ideally a spouse, friend, or FBO. While apps like ForeFlight allow pilots to enter contact details, those aren't passed to the FAA. ADS-B provides an even bigger safety net: an aircraft with ADS-B out can usually be pinpointed within yards, while non-equipped aircraft may take days to locate. Survival LessonsCyriel shares personal changes he's made after years of analyzing accidents. He always keeps his cell phone in his pocket so it won't be lost in a violent crash, carries a handheld transceiver tuned to 121.5 MHz, and wears or packs high-visibility gear. He emphasizes staying with the aircraft, since wreckage is easier to spot than a single person. Route planning also matters—flying near highways or populated areas at night increases survivability compared to wilderness routes. Behind the Scenes of NRATMax and Cyriel dive into how NRAT works with the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center (AFRCC). Using radar, ADS-B, and even cell-phone forensics, the team helps determine whether an incident is a false alarm, an accident with no survivors, or a mission where lives can be saved. They coordinate directly with controllers and search crews, sometimes correcting errors in coordinate formats that would otherwise send helicopters to the wrong location. Success Stories and ScaleIn 2024, AFRCC handled nearly 500 aviation missions, with over 200 lives saved. Civil Air Patrol was involved in more than 300 of those missions, while NRAT contributed to 71 cases—directly responsible for dozens of finds and 10 documented saves. Cyriel recalls a dramatic case in Montana where local ADS-B receivers installed by uAvionix employees helped locate a couple who survived a crash into icy water; thanks to quick coordination, a helicopter pulled them out within 20 minutes. Key Takeaways for PilotsCyriel closes with a checklist: Make sure your ELT is registered correctly. Consider adding a personal locator beacon. Use ADS-B out whenever possible. File a flight plan and put a reachable emergency contact in remarks. Carry your cell phone and handheld radio on your person. Stay with the aircraft if you go down. Max underscores the theme: nobody takes off expecting to crash, but hundreds of missions each year prove it happens. With preparation, you can improve your odds not just of surviving the impact, but of being found in time.

Martin is joined by fellow TTR hosts Graham Stanley and Tom Rogers as they pay tribute to Phil Longwell, ELT teacher, who sadly passed away recently after a battle with cancer.
In this episode, Helen & Laura Patsko discuss her ELT journey, describing her career as a mix of diverse elements, like salad or spaghetti. She began in advertising, transitioned to ELT after influential conversations, and completed her CELTA and DELTA in Prague. Laura then worked in teacher training and for Cambridge University Press before going freelance. She emphasizes the evolving acceptance of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) and the impact of technology, particularly messaging apps, on remote professional development. Laura advocates for embracing the “mess” of non-linear "squiggly" career paths following personal interests and values over a rigid career trajectory, if that is right for you.You can find Laura on LinkedIN.Laura's Portfolio:https://blackbirdlxd.com/?page_id=494The “Continuing Professional Development through mobile messaging apps” project Laura did in 2023 with BC Argentina: https://americas.britishcouncil.org/sites/default/files/0412_cpd_report_eng.pdfLaura mentions:Sandy Millain's Take your Time DELTA: https://www.takeyourtimedelta.com/NILE's distance teacher training: https://www.nile-elt.com/catalog?pagename=NILE-OnlineTo find the complete archive of Developod episodes, go to tdsig.org/developod-tdsigs-podcast

Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
The most critical feedback loop in a democracy is a free press and access to vital information. Yet decades of corporate consolidation allowed giant conglomerates to annihilate local news outlets and predatory hedge funds are leaving news deserts in their wake. In 2025, a fifth of people in the U.S. live with little or no access to local news and three quarters of newspaper jobs have been axed over the last 20 years. But new models are crystallizing to fill the void, thanks to innovating journalists and publishers. Featuring Larry Ryckman, co-founder and Editor of The Colorado Sun, was previously: Senior Editor at The Denver Post; Managing Editor at The Gazette in Colorado Springs; and City Editor at the Greeley Tribune. Madeleine Bair, founder of El Tímpano, an award-winning civic media organization designed with and for the Bay Area's Latino and Mayan immigrant communities.
