She sells a $100,000 package.When she talks about it in her friend circles, she hears,“Who are you to charge that?”or“That's nuts. Nobody will ever pay you that.”So-she started to doubt herself too.This week, she participated in the retreat in Nice, France.We did intense writing sprints.We reflected on deep questions out loud.We shared stories we had never shared before.We shared dreams we had never shared before.At the end, she wrote, “You know? Now-I feel more confident. I have a group of people who are encouraging me to take risks and step outside of my normal box.”Things feel possible for her.What changed?Her environment design.Because, you are not only the sum of the 5 people you surround yourself with, you are also the sum of the 5 people THEY surround themselves with.Workplace culture expert David Burkus cites a study in a Medium article:In it, they found that if your friend smokes, you are 61 percent more likely to be a smoker yourself.If a friend of your friend smokes, you are still 29 percent more likely to smoke.And for a friend of a friend, the likelihood is 11 percent.That's the power of the 5 people you surround yourself with. And the power of the 5 people THEY surround themselves with.My client has always questioned herself when posting content to get clients.Ever since the retreat, she has been on FIRE! and churning out some of the best writing I have seen from her.I'm so proud.All it took was changing her environment design. Surrounding her with 5 women who normalized the ambition to sell a $100,000 package.Now on to..​The 6.16 Nice Edition of What I Did Last Week (and what I"m looking forward to)​Whenever you're ready, there are 3 ways I can help you: 1.Join the Samita Lab Mastermind.

In Episode 32 of A is for Architecture's second season, Susannah Hagan talks about her book Revolution? Architecture and the Anthropocene, published by Lund Humphries in 2022.  Susannah is an emeritus professor of architecture at the University of Westminster, founder of R_E_D (Research into Environment + Design) at the Royal College of Art, and has been a leading light in the establishment of environmental design as a serious, measured discipline within architecture. Revolution? is the fourth book in a series Susannah has written, documenting the relationship of architecture to the natural environment, including Taking Shape: A New Contract Between Architecture and Nature (Routledge, 2000), Digitalia: Architecture and the Environmental, the Digital and the Avant-Garde (Routledge, 2008), and Ecological Urbanism: The Nature of the City (Routledge, 2015). The book deals with a peculiar difference – that of the wild success modernism in the twentieth century, contrasted to ecological architecture's remarkable failure to impress upon the public its argument or ethics. For the publication, Susannah wrote ‘the particularities of [sustainable] architecture's problem […] lie in its 20th century history and its self-perpetuating self-aggrandisement. What use is a profession of self-styled leaders who in the main have been, and still are, loitering at the back?' That's a good question, always. Have a sticky, see what you think. And share like you give a damn. Available on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts and Amazon Music.   More on Susannah here (on Wikipedia!), on Research Gate here, and on R_E_D here. There's a good article in the AR from 2015 called Ecological Urbanism, which she also penned.

Professor Renshaw is a major researcher in the Constraints-led Approach to motor learning. In fact, you'll see his name on several of the books and studies recommended throughout the Combat Learning Podcast. In this episode, Professor Renshaw teaches the "Environment Design Principles," a set of 4 considerations that help guide us into creating effective constraints-led training sessions. Those principles are: - Session intention. - Constrain to afford. - Representative learning design. - Repetition without repetition.

Multiple approaches have been proposed, each with their own set of advantages and drawbacks. This paper presents ACCEL, which takes the next step into the direction of constructing curricula for multi-capable agents. ACCEL combines the adversarial adaptiveness of regret-based sampling methods with the capabilities of level-editing, usually found in Evolutionary Methods.

A promising avenue for improving the robustness of RL agents is through the use of curricula. One such class of methods frames environment design as a game between a student and a teacher, using regret-based objectives to produce environment instantiations (or levels) at the frontier of the student agent's capabilities. These methods benefit from their generality, with theoretical guarantees at equilibrium, yet they often struggle to find effective levels in challenging design spaces. By contrast, evolutionary approaches seek to incrementally alter environment complexity, resulting in potentially open-ended learning, but often rely on domain-specific heuristics and vast amounts of computational resources. In this paper we propose to harness the power of evolution in a principled, regret-based curriculum. Our approach, which we call Adversarially Compounding Complexity by Editing Levels (ACCEL), seeks to constantly produce levels at the frontier of an agent's capabilities, resulting in curricula that start simple but become increasingly complex. ACCEL maintains the theoretical benefits of prior regret-based methods, while providing significant empirical gains in a diverse set of environments.

Abstract: It remains a significant challenge to train generally capable agents with reinforcement learning (RL). A promising avenue for improving the robustness of RL agents is through the use of curricula. One such class of methods frames environment design as a game between a student and a teacher, using regret-based objectives to produce environment instantiations (or levels) at the frontier of the student agent's capabilities. These methods benefit from their generality, with theoretical guarantees at equilibrium, yet they often struggle to find effective levels in challenging design spaces. By contrast, evolutionary approaches seek to incrementally alter environment complexity, resulting in potentially open-ended learning, but often rely on domain-specific heuristics and vast amounts of computational resources. In this paper we propose to harness the power of evolution in a principled, regret-based curriculum. Our approach, which we call Adversarially Compounding Complexity by Editing Levels (ACCEL), seeks to constantly produce levels at the frontier of an agent's capabilities, resulting in curricula that start simple but become increasingly complex. ACCEL maintains the theoretical benefits of prior regret-based methods, while providing significant empirical gains in a diverse set of environments.

Ca a été une grosse claque pour nous, alors acrrochez-vous pour le résumé ! Vous découvrirez notamment :  - pourquoi la manière dont on fixe nos objectifs nous pousse à échouer  - les 4 manières pour changer nos habitudes (ou comment utiliser la dopamine à votre avantage) - comment rendre ce sytème durable dans le temps --- Et si vous aimez cet épisode, venez nous laisser 5 ⭐️ et un avis sur Apple Podcast, ça nous ferait notre journée :). 

Recently I have had a breakthrough with understanding better the vision for my life.

Hi there!I had the immense pleasure of having a wonderful conversation with Denise Joy Hart, who is a designer, artist, playwright, professor, and...so much more!

We all need the environment that we live in, to deter crime. And for that very reason, we need markers, surveillance, and signs of ownership - three main pillars of defensible spaces. All about these in this episode, based on an excerpt from the Universal Principles of Design.

Think of that person you know that's always effortlessly lean.Yeah uhhh... what the hell?Why is it that you have to diet for months to see even a blurry outline of abs... meanwhile, they're lean year round without even paying attention to their nutrition.If it's comforting, you're not the only person experiencing this.For years, there has been debate over The Body Fat Set Point Theory; the idea that you have a “genetic blueprint” that fights to keep you from deviating too far from your "body fat set point".⠀

Today's episode is part 3 in our 4-part Making of the Grove series. We hear from Emily Vogeltanz and Kerri Stanfill who have been on our team from the very first days, as well as Audrey Moseley, our Grove Coordinator, and Raz Khan, a custom builder who specializes in furniture and environment design. Emily and Kerri take us back to the days before the Grove - when there was just vision and prayers of faith - and talk about building a team and what the first gatherings looked and felt like. Audrey and Raz help us see what it takes to create our breathtaking environments each month, and how we steward our resources in the process.

I’ve recorded hundreds of episodes of Muscle for Life on a huge variety of things related to health, fitness, and lifestyle, ranging from the basics of diet and exercise like energy and macronutrient balance and progressive overload and training frequency and volume to fads like the ketogenic and carnivore diet and collagen protein to more unfamiliar territories like body weight set point and fasted cardio. Some episodes resonate with my crowd more than others, but all of them contain at least a few key takeaways that just about anyone can benefit from (that’s what I tell myself at least). And as cool as that is, it poses a problem for you, my dear listener: Ain’t nobody got time for that. Well okay, some people do make the time to listen to most or even all of my podcasts, but my wizbang analytics tell me that while many listeners tune in on a regular basis, they don’t catch every installment of Muscle for Life and thus miss out on insights that could help them get a little better inside and outside the gym. People have also been saying they’d like me to do more shorter, multi-topic episodes, like my Q&As. And so I got an idea: how about a “best of” series of podcasts that contains a few of the most practical and compelling ideas, tips, and moments from my most popular episodes? This way, people who are new to the show can quickly determine if it’s for them or not, and those who enjoy what I’m doing but don’t have the time or inclination to listen to all of my stuff can still benefit from the discussions and find new episodes to listen to. So, in this episode of The Best of Muscle for Life, you’ll be hearing hand-picked morsels from three episodes: 1. Bret Contreras on Understanding Nutrition & Exercise Science (Originally published March 3, 2017) 2. How to Lose Fat Faster With Fasted Cardio (and Keep Your Muscle) (Originally published October 31, 2018) 3. Motivation Monday: How to Use “Environment Design” to Accomplish Your Goals Easier and Faster (Originally published Sept 17, 2018) And we’ll be starting with number one, Bret Contreras on Understanding Nutrition & Exercise Science. 5:45 - Bret Contreras on Understanding Nutrition & Exercise Science 16:01 - How to Lose Fat Faster With Fasted Cardio (and Keep Your Muscle) 25:35 - Motivation Monday: How to Use “Environment Design” to Accomplish Your Goals Easier and Faster --- Mentioned on The Show: Shop Legion Supplements Here: https://legionathletics.com/shop/ --- Want free workout and meal plans?

This is our pilot episode and its focus is on how urban planning can and cannot impact conflict zones. Our guest, Dr. Mitchell Sipus, gives us some great insight utilizing his experience in the field on what it's like to take part in conflict zone planning! If you're a fellow Urban enthusiast like us, tune in with our hosts Saba Serkhel and Brett Conn, Urban Planning grad students from the College of Environment & Design at the University of Georgia.

Lettus Talk is a podcast spawned from the clever minds at Lettus Collective, fueled by the need to speak on topics often censored within the College of Environment & Design's 3 disciplines: Urban Planning, Historic Preservation, & Landscape Architecture.

This episode is part of a weekly series that I have dubbed “Motivation Monday.” (Yes, I know, very creative of me. What can I say, I’m a genius…) Seriously though, the idea here is simple: Every Monday morning, I’m going to post a short and punchy episode that I hope gets you fired up to tackle the workouts, work, and everything else that you have planned for the week ahead. As we all know, it’s one thing to know what you want to do, but it’s something else altogether to actually make yourself do it, and I hope that this series gives you a jolt of inspiration, energy, and encouragement to get at it. So, if you like what you hear, then make sure to check back every Monday morning for the latest and greatest installment.
