You're likely aware of many of the great things AI can do for you. And I'm guessing you've seen many of the nefarious things it can be used for. I was just brought up to speed on one of the latter items, and it's something you should be aware of as well. In my discussion with Marcus Webster, the Founder and President of Webster and Webster Associates, I learned that people are using AI to help them get jobs, and in some cases, they are jobs that they should not be getting, for security reasons. People are submitting fake resumes and even conducting fake video-based job interviews. Honestly, it's both fascinating and scary. Check out this week's Embedded Executives podcast to learn more.

Most software teams still think of payments as a chore. We take you inside the playbook that turns it into a growth engine. I sits down with NMI CTO Phillip Goericke to unpack how embedded payments evolved from a basic checkout to a full-stack platform that handles onboarding, underwriting, payouts, analytics, and even embedded finance. The conversation is straight talk on what actually works when you're shipping fast and scaling globally.We dig into the architectural choices that matter: start with a no-code drop-in to activate revenue quickly, then progress to low-code SDKs and finally full APIs when you need deep control. Phillip shares where platforms stall - manual KYC, fragmented global rules, and data blind spots and how a modular approach fixes these without ripping out your stack. You'll hear how compliance-as-a-service, network tokenization, and adaptive 3D Secure can raise approval rates, reduce fraud, and simplify audits while keeping the checkout experience seamless.Looking ahead, we explore why identity, compliance, and data are the foundation for embedded finance. Philip outlines NMI's unified experience that brings payments, onboarding, insights, and new services like business capital into one place. We also tackle AI with clear eyes: use it to augment decisioning and anomaly detection, but wrap it with deterministic controls so money-critical outcomes are consistently right. The key takeaway is a mindset shift: stop treating payments as a feature and start using it as a strategic lever for revenue, retention, and product velocity.If you're building software with transactions anywhere in the flow, this is your blueprint for turning payments into a competitive moat.

What happens when your childhood calling collides with a system that limits your capacity to live it out?In this Echo Episode, Dr. Maria Sturchler shares her extraordinary journey from first-generation college student to educator to medical student, years after being told she “wouldn't make it” in medicine. Now double board-certified in Emergency Medicine and Palliative Care, Maria reveals how serendipity, mentorship, and resilience brought her back to her original dream on her own terms.She and Andrea unpack the realities pushing talented clinicians out of traditional EM practice: night shifts, moral injury, violence in the ED, corporate interference, loss of autonomy, and the identity crisis that comes with stepping away. Maria gives voice to the hidden grief, burnout, and shame physicians carry when “the path” no longer fits.But this is not a story of defeat. Maria now leads an innovative palliative care model embedded inside the emergency department, freeing EM physicians from burdens that don't belong to them, reducing patient suffering, and restoring meaning to clinical work. Her message is equal parts invitation and disruption: medicine is not a prison. It's a “choose-your-own-adventure” and there are more off-ramps, pivots, and second chances than most physicians believe.You'll Hear How They:Reframe imposter syndrome and harmful feedback that derails dreamsNavigate grief when an identity built on EM no longer aligns with personal well-beingDescribe the hidden toll of EM: disrupted circadian rhythm, motherhood challenges, pandemic trauma, and corporate shiftsIntegrate palliative care inside the ED, reducing length of stay, improving communication, and radically supporting EM physiciansUse mentorship, self-inquiry, and values alignment to identify career pivots About the Guest“Medicine is choose-your-own-adventure.” — Dr. Maria SturchlerDr. Maria Sturchler is a dual board-certified physician in Emergency Medicine and Palliative Care, a three-time Ironman competitor, and a former mathematics educator whose doctoral work examined gender disparities in STEM. After being discouraged from medicine early on, serendipity and mentorship led her back to her calling. Today, she helps patients, families, and clinici'hat integrate palliative medicine directly into emergency care.LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/mariasturchlerWebsite: sturchlermd.comResources + MentionsUnlocking Us podcast — Brené BrownBring 'Em All In (referenced EM mantra)Multidisciplinary collaboration models in palliative and acute careTop 3 Key TakeawaysCareer paths are not linear—nor should they be: Your training is a foundation, not a life sentence. EM skills travel well into palliative care, leadership roles, education, coaching, and hybrid models that better honor your values.Boundaries are not betrayal—they are survival: Choosing your health, family, sleep, identity, and emotional bandwidth is not weakness. It is wisdom. Physicians cannot sustain compassion without protecting their humanity.The future belongs to systems that humanize care: Embedded palliative programs, interdisciplinary partnerships, and values-based innovations reduce burnout, shorten ED holds, and restore dignity to medicine—one conversation at a time.

A video post!The Miro board used in the video can be accessed here:https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVJi6NCs8=/?share_link_id=616280785572(PS: Miro, I'd love another sweatshirt!)This framework explains why tools help in some situations and fail in others by grounding everything in the current state of a behavior. Every important behavior in an organization sits somewhere on a spectrum: it might be purely aspirational, weakly practiced, inconsistent, friction-heavy, fully stable, actively suppressed, or not even clearly defined. Each of these states is held back by different blockers—lack of clarity, lack of skills, lack of time, workflow friction, political risk, or social norms—and each requires a different kind of support. Using a behavior-design lens like COM-B, the idea becomes simple: tools only work when they address the real blocker. Sometimes their job is to scaffold early steps and turn aspiration into practice. Sometimes it is to remove operational drag from a behavior that already exists. Sometimes it is to create shared visibility and reduce political friction. Tools matter, but how they matter depends entirely on the behavioral context they are dropped into.Show Notes (AI Generated) The Core QuestionWhen do tools matter, and how do they matter?Answer: It depends entirely on the current state of the behavior you want to see.The Seven Behavior StatesA. Normal States* Aspirational / Not RealizedOnly talked about. No real practice.* Weakly RealizedPeople agree it matters and occasionally try it, but it gets displaced by urgency and habit.* Partially Realized / InconsistentHappens in pockets. Conflicting interpretations. Local successes that have not scaled.* Mostly Realized but Friction-FilledBehavior is accepted and happening, but it is painful due to workflow friction, manual effort, tool constraints, or time pressure.* Fully Realized / StableConsistent, predictable, routinized. Embedded norms. Change feels risky.Special States* Actively SuppressedCounter-behaviors, incentives, or power dynamics prevent the behavior.* Contested / UndefinedNo shared understanding of what the behavior even is or how it should show up.COM-B EssentialsA behavior emerges when people have:* Capability* Psychological: knowledge, mental models, clarity* Physical: skills, practice* Opportunity* Physical: time, tools, workflow space* Social: norms, permission, cues, legitimacy* Motivation* Reflective: beliefs, intentions, identity, political risk* Automatic: habits, impulses, shortcutsTools can influence any of these.How Tools Help Depends on the Behavior StateIf the behavior is…Aspirational / Not RealizedPrimary tool role:Turn aspiration into a repeatable practice.Strategies:* Provide structure and scaffolding* Make early steps easy* Visualize desired state* Reinforce identity and intentWeakly RealizedPrimary tool role:Lower activation energy and make it harder to forget or skip.Blockers:* Not enough time* Habit competition* Too many steps* Short-term urgency wins over long-term valueStrategies:* Reduce steps* Support self-regulation* Nudge and cue the behavior* Make it easy to startPartially Realized / InconsistentPrimary tool role:Create a shared frame without forcing uniformity.Strategies:* Clarify purpose* Help reconcile or visualize different interpretations* Provide minimally viable standardizationMostly Realized but Friction-FilledPrimary tool role:Remove operational drag.Blockers:* Workflow friction* Manual coordination* Confusing handoffs* Tool gapsStrategies:* Standardize routines* Streamline workflows* Make bottlenecks visible* Automate repetitive workFully Realized / StablePrimary tool role:Preserve what works while reducing risk and effort.Blockers:* Risk aversion* Fear of destabilizing the ritual* Manual grind that no one wants to mess withStrategies:* Automate low-value steps* De-risk changes* Protect institutional knowledgeContested / UndefinedPrimary tool role:Clarify, name, and frame the behavior.Strategies:* Make interpretations explicit* Help teams converge on a definition* Reveal misalignmentActively SuppressedPrimary tool role:Shift legitimacy, visibility, and power dynamics.Strategies:* Provide shared visibility* Depoliticize the behavior* Reinforce norms or incentives* Create social proofTool Change Vectors (How Tools Influence Behavior)Tools can work through different mechanisms depending on the blocker:Influencing Capability* Clarification* Instruction* Cognitive offloading* Guided workflows* ChecklistsInfluencing Opportunity* Automation* Better workflows* Reducing steps* Making time and spaceInfluencing Motivation* Social proof* Legitimacy* Identity cues* Reduced political risk* ReinforcementWhat This Means for AIAI's role will differ depending on the behavior state:* In aspirational states: scaffold early steps, provide examples, generate clarity.* In friction-filled states: remove manual overhead, automate stitching, reduce coordination cost.* In stable states: protect quality, ensure consistency, prevent regressions.* In contested states: help surface meaning, definitions, and distinctions.AI is another lever in the COM-B system — not magic, but highly state-dependent.The Core InsightTools always matter, but they matter in different ways depending on:* Which behavior you're trying to support* Where that behavior currently sits on the realization spectrum* What is actually blocking it (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation)Getting this right means choosing the right intervention instead of assuming tools “fix” or “don't fix” things.

The criminal economy in South Africa is under the spotlight in the latest Africa Organised Crime Index. Chris Steyn speaks to Willem Els of the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) about the factors that contributed to South Africa moving up to Number Two. “…unfortunately, and I think it came out in recent months in South Africa as well, your State-embedded actors are actually driving the agenda If it were not for them, it would not have been possible to have these types of criminality levels...what came to the forefront in recent months, is how these things were facilitated for these criminal actors in terms of capturing our judicial system and the policing.” As for the country' chances of navigating out of that hot spot, Els says: “It seems that should South Africa actually start to implement the right things and move in the right direction, it will take up to 25 years before we can actually be in the green when it comes to criminality. So it's a long road ahead of us. We have to battle it. There needs to be that political war.” Els also gives an updste on a top-level investigation into allegations that Duduzile Zuma has “trafficked” people to Russia to be used in the war against Ukraine, as well as other cases of human trafficking of South Africans.

Most employers are wasting money on "cost containment" solutions that nobody uses. They buy a 1-800 number or a wellness app, hoping for savings, but get zero engagement because employees don't trust a stranger at a call center. If your advocacy solution has no engagement, it has zero ROI. It's like playing slots in the "Healthcare Casino"—you keep putting money in, but the house always wins.Real ROI requires real trust. My guest, Matt McQuide of Synergy Healthcare, joins me on The Broker's Voice to break down the financial impact of Embedded Clinical Advocacy. We discuss why assigning a dedicated nurse to a specific client (not a random voice on a phone line) is the only way to drive the engagement necessary to redirect care and prevent catastrophic claims. This is the strategy for turning advocacy from a line item expense into a massive return on investment.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY

Most of the RISC-V offerings that I've seen have been pushing very high performance, with lots of cores and lots of chips. Upbeat Technology is taking a different tack by looking at very low power levels. In my discussion with Jerry Chen, Founder and CEO of Upbeat Technology, he explains the reasons for that approach, and, as you'll hear, he tells it like it is and explains why the company partnered with SiFive. The applications that make sense for the Upbeat offering include always-on IoT, wearables, drones/UAVs, smart audio, predictive maintenance, and edge-AI sensors, basically anything battery-powered. Hear our discussion on this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

In this special crossover episode with the brand-new Embedded AI Podcast, Luca and Jeff are joined by Ryan Torvik, Luca's co-host on the Embedded AI podcast, to explore the intersection of AI-powered development tools and agile embedded systems engineering. The hosts discuss practical strategies for using Large Language Models (LLMs) effectively in embedded development workflows, covering topics like context management, test-driven development with AI, and maintaining code quality standards in safety-critical systems. The conversation addresses common anti-patterns that developers encounter when first adopting LLM-assisted coding, such as "vibe coding" yourself off a cliff by letting the AI generate too much code at once, losing control of architectural decisions, and failing to maintain proper test coverage. The hosts emphasize that while LLMs can dramatically accelerate prototyping and reduce boilerplate coding, they require even more rigorous engineering discipline - not less. They discuss how traditional agile practices like small commits, continuous integration, test-driven development, and frequent context resets become even more critical when working with AI tools. For embedded systems engineers working in safety-critical domains like medical devices, automotive, and aerospace, the episode provides valuable guidance on integrating AI tools while maintaining deterministic quality processes. The hosts stress that LLMs should augment, not replace, static analysis tools and human code reviews, and that developers remain fully responsible for AI-generated code. Whether you're just starting with AI-assisted development or looking to refine your approach, this episode offers actionable insights for leveraging LLMs effectively while keeping the reins firmly in hand. ## Key Topics * [03:45] LLM Interface Options: Web, CLI, and IDE Plugins - Choosing the Right Tool for Your Workflow* [08:30] Prompt Engineering Fundamentals: Being Specific and Iterative with LLMs* [12:15] Building Effective Base Prompts: Learning from Experience vs. Starting from Templates* [16:40] Context Window Management: Avoiding Information Overload and Hallucinations* [22:10] Understanding LLM Context: Files, Prompts, and Conversation History* [26:50] The Nature of Hallucinations: Why LLMs Always Generate, Never Judge* [29:20] Test-Driven Development with AI: More Critical Than Ever* [35:45] Avoiding 'Vibe Coding' Disasters: The Importance of Small, Testable Increments* [42:30] Requirements Engineering in the AI Era: Becoming More Specific About What You Want* [48:15] Extreme Programming Principles Applied to LLM Development: Small Steps and Frequent Commits* [52:40] Context Reset Strategies: When and How to Start Fresh Sessions* [56:20] The V-Model Approach: Breaking Down Problems into Manageable LLM-Sized Chunks* [01:01:10] AI in Safety-Critical Systems: Augmenting, Not Replacing, Deterministic Tools* [01:06:45] Code Review in the AI Age: Maintaining Standards Despite Faster Iteration* [01:12:30] Prototyping vs. Production Code: The Superpower and the Danger* [01:16:50] Shifting Left with AI: Empowering Product Owners and Accelerating Feedback Loops* [01:19:40] Bootstrapping New Technologies: From Zero to One in Minutes Instead of Weeks* [01:23:15] Advice for Junior Engineers: Building Intuition in the Age of AI-Assisted Development ## Notable Quotes > "All of us are new to this experience. Nobody went to school back in the 80s and has been doing this for 40 years. We're all just running around, bumping into things and seeing what works for us." — Ryan Torvik > "An LLM is just a token generator. You stick an input in, and it returns an output, and it has no way of judging whether this is correct or valid or useful. It's just whatever it generated. So it's up to you to give it input data that will very likely result in useful output data." — Luca Ingianni > "Tests tell you how this is supposed to work. You can have it write the test first and then evaluate the test. Using tests helps communicate - just like you would to another person - no, it needs to function like this, it needs to have this functionality and behave in this way." — Ryan Torvik > "I find myself being even more aggressively biased towards test-driven development. While I'm reasonably lenient about the code that the LLM writes, I am very pedantic about the tests that I'm using. I will very thoroughly review them and really tweak them until they have the level of detail that I'm interested in." — Luca Ingianni > "It's really forcing me to be a better engineer by using the LLM. You have to go and do that system level understanding of the problem space before you actually ask the LLM to do something. This is what responsible people have been saying - this is how you do engineering." — Ryan Torvik > "I can use LLMs to jumpstart me or bootstrap me from zero to one. Once there's something on the screen that kind of works, I can usually then apply my general programming skill, my general engineering taste to improve it. Getting from that zero to one is now not days or weeks of learning - it's 20 minutes of playing with it." — Jeff Gable > "LLMs are fantastic at small-scale stuff. They will be wonderful at finding better alternatives for how to implement a certain function. But they are absolutely atrocious at large-scale stuff. They will gleefully mess up your architecture and not even notice because they cannot fit it into their tiny electronic brains." — Luca Ingianni > "Don't be afraid to try it out. We're all noobs to this. This is the brave noob world of AI exploration. Be curious about it, but also be cautious about it. Don't ever take your hands off the reins. Trust your engineering intuition - even young folks that are just starting, trust your engineering intuition." — Ryan Torvik > "As the saying goes, good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment. You'll find spectacular ways of messing up - that is how you become a decent engineer. LLMs do not change that. Junior engineers will still be necessary, will still be around, and they will still evolve into senior engineers eventually after they've fallen on their faces enough times." — Luca Ingianni  You can find Jeff at https://jeffgable.com.You can find Luca at https://luca.engineer.Want to join the agile Embedded Slack?

It's not the first time this has occurred, but it is the latest—a previously commercial real-time operating system is now being offered as open source. In this case, it's SMX from Micro Digital. If you're wondering, like I was, where the company would choose to go this route, check out this week's Embedded Executives podcast with Ralph More, the Founder and President of Micro Digital.

In this comprehensive episode, Luka Mustafa, founder and CEO of Irnas Product Development, provides an in-depth exploration of Zephyr RTOS and its transformative impact on embedded development. We dive deep into how Zephyr's Linux Foundation-backed ecosystem enables hardware-agnostic development, dramatically reducing the time spent on foundational code versus business-value features. Luka shares practical insights from five years of specializing in Zephyr development, demonstrating how projects can achieve remarkable portability - including running the same Bluetooth code on different chip architectures in just an hour, and even executing embedded applications natively on Linux for development purposes.The discussion covers Zephyr's comprehensive testing framework (Twister), CI/CD integration capabilities, and the cultural shift required when moving from traditional bare-metal development to this modern RTOS approach. We explore real-world applications from low-power IoT devices consuming just 5 microamps to complex multi-core systems, while addressing the learning curve challenges and when Zephyr might not be the right choice. This episode is essential listening for embedded teams considering modernizing their development practices and leveraging community-driven software ecosystems.Key Topics[03:15] Zephyr RTOS fundamentals and Linux Foundation ecosystem benefits[08:30] Hardware abstraction and device tree implementation for portable embedded code[12:45] Nordic Semiconductor strategic partnership and silicon vendor support landscape[18:20] Native POSIX development capabilities and cross-platform debugging strategies[25:10] Learning curve challenges: EE vs CS background adaptation to Zephyr development[32:40] Resource requirements and low-power implementation on constrained microcontrollers[38:15] Multi-vendor chip support: STMicroelectronics, NXP, and industry adoption trends[42:30] Safety-critical applications and ongoing certification processes[45:50] Organizational transformation strategies and cultural adaptation challenges[52:20] Zbus inter-process communication and modular development architecture[58:45] Twister testing framework and comprehensive CI/CD pipeline integration[65:30] Sample-driven development methodology and long-lived characterization tests[72:15] Production testing automation and shell interface utilization[78:40] Model-based development integration and requirements traceability[82:10] When not to use Zephyr: Arduino simplicity vs RTOS complexity trade-offsNotable Quotes"With Zephyr, porting a Bluetooth project from one chip architecture to another took an hour for an intern, compared to what would traditionally be months of effort." — Luka Mustafa"How many times have you written a logging subsystem? If the answer is more than zero, then it shouldn't be the case. Someone needs to write it once, and every three years someone needs to rewrite it with a better idea." — Luka Mustafa"The real benefit comes from doing things the Zephyr way in Zephyr, because then you are adopting all of the best practices of developing the code, using all of the subsystems to the maximum extent." — Luka Mustafa"You want to make sure your team is spending time on things that make money for you, not on writing logging, for example." — Luka MustafaZephyr Project - Linux Foundation-backed RTOS project providing comprehensive embedded development ecosystemTwister Testing Framework - Zephyr's built-in testing framework for unit tests, hardware-in-the-loop, and CI/CD integrationZbus Inter-Process Communication - Advanced event bus system for modular embedded development and component decouplingiirnas - Open-source examples of Zephyr best practices and CI/CD pipeline implementationsCarles Cufi's Talk - Detailed presentation on Nordic's strategic decision to support Zephyr RTOS You can find Jeff at https://jeffgable.com.You can find Luca at https://luca.engineer.Want to join the agile Embedded Slack?

6. The Cold War Context and the Tragedy of a Government-Controlled Space Program. Bob Zimmerman discusses how the Apollo 8 mission was embedded in the global Cold War and the extreme chaos of 1968, marked by political turmoil and assassinations. The space race was intended as a demonstration that America, as a free society, could achieve great things better than the Soviet top-down system. While the astronauts were military veterans, the author disputes the notion that NASA was a military operation, emphasizing that it was run by civilian engineers and managers. Ironically, despite the goal of celebrating freedom, President Kennedy adopted a centralized, top-down, government-run structure—a "Soviet style" program. This centralized approach proved to be a tragedy, as the mission became viewed as a singular stunt. Once the moon landing was achieved, the program lost political and financial support, resulting in a "dead end" for future solar system exploration. 2014 GOLDEN MOON

There are lots of semiconductor vendors that do a great job of providing AI hardware. But unfortunately, for many of them, their offerings end there, requiring developers to source software and tools from multiple sources. It's no secret that designing a system with AI is complex enough. Having to go to different vendors for different pieces just adds multiple layers of complexity. Analog Devices is taking a different tack, where they are providing just about everything the developer needs, thanks to its CodeFusion Studio, which includes an IDE, a software development kit, and coding tools. Hear more about it on this week's Embedded Executives podcast, where I spoke to Rob Oshana, Analog Devices' Senior Vice President of Software and Digital Platforms.

Morris Hospital and Healthcare Centers is quite small: an independent, rural system of clinics including an 89-bed hospital. Yet the system is the largest employer in Morris, IL. In this interview, Kim Landers, their Vice President of Patient Care and Chief Nurse Executive, explains how they remain relevant and solvent, and the aid provided by moving to the MEDITECH Expanse online platform.While always having used MEDITECH as their EHR, Morris went online with Expanse in 2023. This move brought together all departments, which had previously used four different platforms. The unification of records was especially important in pulling together the ambulatory and in-patient settings.Learn more about Morris Hospital: https://www.morrishospital.org/Learn more about MEDITECH: https://ehr.meditech.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

Episode Notes:Dr Ho describes an empirical research agenda focused on how security actually operates in organisations. He explains his experience with getting this research off the ground to allow them to perform the research in this setting.Study setting and scope: eight-month randomised controlled trial at UC San Diego Health involving ~19,500 employees and ten distinct phishing campaign lures.Annual awareness training: the study found no significant relationship between how recently staff completed the mandated course and their likelihood of failing a simulated phishing campaign.Embedded training (when someone clicks a phishing simulation and is immediately redirected to training): the measurable improvement was very small (≈2% reduction in failure rate) and varied significantly by lure and engagement.Engagement challenge: The vast majority of embedded-training sessions were extremely short or incomplete, a key factor in explaining limited effect size.Variability of lure difficulty: Some phishing lures elicited very low click-rates (~1.8%) while others up to ~30.8%, indicating that the phishing stimulus matters as much as, or more than, the training intervention.Practical takeaway: Organizations should treat training (especially annually mandated modules) as only one part of a broader defence strategy, and design empirical measurement systems (including controls, realistic lures, and sustained engagement) before assuming large effect sizes.About our Guest:Dr Grant Ho Profile: https://cs.uchicago.edu/people/grant-ho/Papers or resources mentioned in this episode:Ho, G.; Mirian, A.; Luo, E.; Tong, K.; Lee, E.; Liu, L.; Longhurst, C.A.; Dameff, C.; Voelker, G.M.

In this episode, Antonia Senior speaks with journalist and author Jason Burke about The Revolutionists, and the extraordinary true story of Gunnar Ekberg — the Swedish spy who infiltrated radical left-wing movements in Europe during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Ekberg witnessed first-hand a moment of enormous ideological energy: when secular, nationalist and progressive revolutionary groups believed they were the vanguard of global change. Embedded inside these movements, he saw their organising, their fervour, their drift toward violence — and ultimately, their decline. But Ekberg's story also marks the hinge-point in modern terrorism. As the decade unfolded, the revolutionary energy that once drove secular movements shifted dramatically. Islamism emerged as the dominant revolutionary force in the Middle East, while Western Europe's security focus transformed as left-wing groups faded and jihadist networks rose. Through Ekberg's eyes — and Burke's deep analysis — this conversation explores how ideology, violence and global power structures evolved, and why that shift still shapes the world we live in today. terror history, Gunnar Ekberg, Jason Burke, The Revolutionists, 1970s radicalism, secular nationalism, Islamism, hijackings, European terrorism, Middle East extremism, podcast interview, history of terrorism.If you enjoyed this conversation, please subscribe, rate us, and check the links below for Jason Burke's book.

Everyone's talking about AI. Almost no one's getting specific. And that's the problem. Rob and Justin break down the three categories that matter: chat agents you talk to, embedded assistants baked into your workflows, and headless systems running quietly in the background doing the grunt work nobody wants to do. This isn't theory. This is how AI is finally working for real companies. They walk through Vendor Bot, Scheduler Bot, and Budget Bot — small, focused tools that do one thing exceptionally well. Because here's what keeps happening: the "one bot to rule them all" projects collapse under their own weight every single time. But stack a few narrow, reliable bots together? That's when things get interesting. If you've been wondering why AI works for some teams and stalls for others, this episode has your answer. Spoiler: it's not about going bigger. It's about getting ruthlessly specific. The "we're all in on AI" era is over. The "we know where it fits" era just began.

How did Brahma create alluring women, and for what purpose? Why did the righteous King Bhangashvana choose womanhood? How did the sage Markandeya's pupil prevent his guru's wife from committing adultery? What role did Indra play in the births of Vishvamitra and Parashu Rama? How were death, diseases, desire and anger created? Why and how did the institution of kingship come about? What can one learn from the mouse who escaped the cat, the owl, the mongoose and the hunter; or the wise jackal who was betrayed by the lion king?

In this episode, I sit down with Jon Fry, CEO and co-founder of Lendflow, to explore how AI is transforming the embedded lending landscape. Jon shares his unconventional journey from building websites in college to becoming a key player in embedded lending, including the challenge of launching LendFlow in early 2020—just as COVID shut down the lending market.The conversation dives deep into how LendFlow's AI-powered platform is making lending more efficient and accessible, why the small business lending space hasn't advanced as quickly as many expected, and what survival through multiple market cycles has taught the industry's most resilient players. Jon paints a compelling vision of the next five to ten years, where AI will create truly magical lending experiences and finally deliver on the promise of embedded finance for small businesses.In this podcast you will learn:How Jon went from building website in college to starting Lendflow.What is was like launching a lending software business in early 2020.What Lendflow does exactly.Who is their core customer.What has changed in embedded lending in the last five years.How brands can customize their loan offerings with Lendflow's platform.Why Lendflow encourages brands to connect directly with lenders.What a neutral embedded lending network is.How Lendflow uses AI and what problems it is solving.Why we are not quite ready for a fully agentic workflow yet.What a fully agentic workflow could look like in the future.Why Jon thinks lending software hasn't developed that quickly in the past decade.What he thinks the next five to ten years holds for lending.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

SMBs don't have access to the same level of sophisticated lending options as consumers.There is one fundamental problem that prevents this class of product from pushing forward: lenders juggle multiple data vendors, wrestle with disconnected point solutions, and these tools lack the ability to paint a full picture of the SMB customer and their needs. The result is an ecosystem where a majority of time is spent on solving operational blockades rather than building solutions that cater to the whole lending lifecycle of a SMB customer. “We need something that covers everything. There can't just be a bunch of point solutions," says Jon Fry, founder and CEO of Lendflow. Lendflow has tackled this challenge by building a unified embedded lending infrastructure that works with over 200 companies to streamline three critical pillars in the lending lifecycle: distribution, decisioning, and workflow automation. The firm is not a lender today, nor are they interested in becoming an embedded lender in the future; instead it has positioned itself as the technology backbone that enables existing lenders to become embedded lenders themselves. Lendflow's approach is paying off for clients like BHG Financial, which uses the firm's entire platform suite and has seen dramatic improvements in operational efficiency and approval rates through the partnership. Listen to this podcast to learn how Lendflow is helping lenders break out of the fragmentation quagmire and access a full agentic AI toolbox that helps re-engage borrowers, as well as improve efficiencies for internal processes.

Every IoT device should comply with the Connectivity Standard Alliance (CSA) Matter standard, but we know that's not the case. For some developers, doing that is a no-brainer. However, there are some developers who struggle with the process. For that latter group, the CSA recently released a Matter-compliant platform certification that should help them get to market far more quickly. To explain how that works, I spoke to Jon Harros, who leads the Alliance Certification and Testing team at the CSA, on this week's Embedded Executives podcast. Jon goes through the need for the program, how it's implemented, and what developers need to know.

Or just "Embeds" as we more frequently refer to them as. Stephen and Chris talk about the fairly meaty project which was re-writing our Embeds for a CodePen 2.0 world. No longer can we assume Pens are just one HTML, CSS, and JavaScript "file", so they needed a bit of a redesign, but doing as little as possible so that existing Embed Themes still work. This was plenty tricky as it was a re-write from Rails to Next.js, with everything needing to be Server-Side Rendered and as lightweight as possible (thank urql!). Time Jumps

professorjrod@gmail.comCloud perimeters are fading, identities are multiplying, and threats move faster than patches. We dive into the real mechanics of securing a hybrid world—mapping cloud deployment choices, clarifying shared responsibility across SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS, and showing how Zero Trust reshapes defenses around identity, posture, and context. It's a practical tour from first principles to field-tested patterns, grounded by case studies like Capital One and SolarWinds and anchored in frameworks such as NIST SP 800-207.We start by decoding public, private, hosted private, community, and hybrid models, then connect those choices to risk: multi-tenant isolation, data flows between zones, and the observability challenges of decentralization. From there, we move into reliability engineering—high availability, geo-redundancy, disaster recovery—and the role Kubernetes plays in scaling securely, with a frank look at container pitfalls and how least privilege and image scanning reduce blast radius. Automation takes center stage with infrastructure as code, autoscaling, and software-defined networking, plus how SASE brings secure access to a remote-first workforce without bolting on more complexity.Embedded systems and IoT get a hard look: scarce memory, weak encryption, default credentials, and unpatchable firmware that turns convenience into risk. We offer a simple playbook—segment aggressively, enforce egress controls, rotate credentials, and plan device lifecycles—to stop small sensors from causing big outages. Zero Trust ties it all together: never trust, always verify; microsegment to prevent lateral movement; and evaluate every access request through identity, device health, and real-time signals. Along the way, we weave in Security+ exam-style questions so you can test your knowledge and lock in the fundamentals.If this helped you see your cloud and Zero Trust roadmap more clearly, follow the show, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review.

At last night's Boston School Committee meeting, members dove immediately into another discussion about the Exam School Admissions Policy Recommendation, foregoing the usual Superintendent's Report. In response to committee requests from the last meeting, the district presented new simulations that gave equal weight (as opposed to 70% grades and 30% MPA score) to both GPA and MAP assessment scores. The district found that there was minimal change in the overall makeup of students admitted to exam schools. Secondary Schools Policy Update: The Committee then moved through grant approvals and then heard a report on secondary school policies, including graduation and vocational admissions criteria. The Committee discussed adding weighted lotteries for all vocational programs, spurring questions about the complexities of admissions for families. District leaders outlined new competency determination requirements to align with updated state (DESE) standards for the Class of 2026 and beyond, with adjustments for multilingual learners, students with disabilities, and those with exceptional circumstances. Embedded in the district's presentation was also a recommendation for a watered-down MassCore with a “D-” signaling mastery in certain courses. This raised concerns about expectations and abiding by the previous Committee votes to use MassCore as the graduation standard.  Additionally, the district failed to present data for the Class of 2025, prompting Member Brandon Cardet-Hernandez to question how many students are currently on track to meet graduation standards. He noted that in the presentation disseminated by the district only 41% of the Class of 2026 appears to be on pace to complete MassCore, and therefore graduate. Summer Learning Initiatives: Next, the Superintendent presented on Summer Learning 2025, reporting participation from 14,600 students, up 600 from the previous year. The district highlighted stronger collaboration across departments and improved multilingual family communications. However, outcomes from these summer programs were nonexistent.  Member Cardet-Hernandez questioned whether the district is truly committed to evaluating outcomes. He pressed for evidence that these expensive programs are actually closing achievement gaps. Member Skerritt echoed that same concern, asking for longitudinal tracking of student outcomes, noting that with today's data tools, the district should be able to easily compare participants' attendance, growth, and testing results to prior years. MCAS and Accountability Results: The final report of the night centered on 2025 State Assessment and Accountability Results. Superintendent Skipper cited “encouraging progress” in literacy for grades 3–8 and said Boston outperformed other large districts statewide. But a closer look revealed troubling trends. Member Cardet-Hernandez questioned the effects of “social promotion,” advancing students who haven't met grade-level standards, and how this impacts high school achievement. Member Skerritt then asked what proficiency targets the district is actually aiming for, suggesting BPS set clear districtwide goals through 2030. As the below chart indicates, MCAS scores remain below pre-pandemic levels across all grades: Despite these declines, the district framed the results as “encouraging,” a characterization that is difficult to reconcile with the data. What's Next:  The meeting was emblematic of the district's current crossroads: a push for optimism and narrative control amid academic stagnation. The next meeting will be held on October 29th.

Picture this: You're selling your old phone on eBay when a single click offers you the chance to send wildfire relief to LA. No forms, no guilt trip, no second-guessing—just pure impulse-to-impact conversion. You might do it without thinking twice.If you did, congratulations—you just participated in the $4 billion revolution Nick Aldridge has been quietly building for 18 years. While the nonprofit world obsesses over donor retention rates and capital campaign thermometers, Aldridge placed a different bet: What if generosity could be so frictionless that people do it almost by accident?The gamble paid off spectacularly. PayPal Giving Fund has moved money to 227,000 charities by embedding charitable giving into the mundane moments of digital life—not by creating new donors, but by catching generous impulses before they evaporate.Nick reveals why the gap between wanting to help and actually helping isn't about money or motivation—it's about the three extra clicks nobody wants to make.Join us to explore how removing friction unleashes generosity at unprecedented scale.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

FBI Tells Congress It Had 275 “Plainclothes Agents” Embedded In Jan. 6 Crowd — And That's Just One Agency

Welcome to September. Public media has had a rough summer. On July 18th, Congress passed the Rescissions Act of 2025, which eliminated $1.1 billion in funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Then on August 1st, CPB announced they would be winding down operations.When folks talk about these cuts, they usually talk about the vital public services public media provides, such as emergency alerts. But we'd be remiss if we didn't also talk about how NPR is an audio storytelling powerhouse. Throughout the month, we've partnered with our friends at NPR to present four pieces that represent the breadth and depth of their incredible reporting.We hope you enjoy.****************************In the mid-1980s, an OBGYN in Brazil noticed that far fewer pregnant women at his hospital were dying from abortion complications. It wasn't a coincidence. Brazilian women had made a discovery that allowed them to safely have abortions at home, despite the country's abortion restrictions. That discovery eventually spread across the globe. Embedded+ supporters get first access and sponsor-free listening for every Embedded series. Sign up at plus.npr.org/embedded.
