My guest today is Dylan Patel. Dylan is the founder and CEO of SemiAnalysis. At SemiAnalysis Dylan tracks the semiconductor supply chain and AI infrastructure buildout with unmatched granularity—literally watching data centers get built through satellite imagery and mapping hundreds of billions in capital flows. Our conversation explores the massive industrial buildout powering AI, from the strategic chess game between OpenAI, Nvidia, and Oracle to why we're still in the first innings of post-training and reinforcement learning. Dylan explains infrastructure realities like electrician wages doubling and companies using diesel truck engines for emergency power, while making a sobering case about US-China competition and why America needs AI to succeed. We discuss his framework for where value will accrue in the stack, why traditional SaaS economics are breaking down under AI's high cost of goods sold, and which hardware bottlenecks matter most. This is one of the most comprehensive views of the physical reality underlying the AI revolution you'll hear anywhere. Please enjoy my conversation with Dylan Patel.

On this episode of The Defense Unicorns Podcast, host and CEO of Defense Unicorns, Rob Slaughter, sits down with Lauren Knausenberger, Chief Innovation Officer, and Bob Ritchie, CGO/CTO, at SAIC, to unpack the evolving intersection of defense, technology, and innovation. From their roots in the Department of Defense to leadership roles at a Fortune 500 integrator, Lauren and Bob bring a front-row view into how mission-driven tech is reshaping the national security landscape.They share what it means to partner across startups, integrators, and government, and why solving the toughest defense challenges requires an open, collaborative ecosystem. Lauren reflects on the cultural and structural shifts sparked by efforts like AFWERX and DIU, while Bob breaks down how cloud platforms and open source models are changing the game, especially at scale.Together, they dig into the growing momentum behind outcome-based acquisition, the importance of credible venture investment in national security startups, and why the real question isn't “who owns the tech,” but “who's focused on the mission.” From acquisition reform to continuous ATOs and lessons from Ukraine, this episode is a grounded, insider perspective on what it takes to modernize defense in both mindset and execution.Key Quotes:"We do bias towards companies that are dedicated to open source and towards the ability to help support those companies succeed, which is one of the most amazing things about what you've done with Defense Unicorns – just the one of the top Kubernetes contributors in the world, then the largest, open source contributor in the industrial base. So, those sorts of principles and values of dedication to mission, and the high standard of craftsmanship around software delivery that it takes to do your software development in open source, is something that really attracts us and how we go and think about partnerships.” - Bob"Our core competency is solving really gnarly problems and bringing all of the tribe and all of the pieces together, and solving the problem. We're not going to be a hyperscaler and an individual enterprise services provider – we can't possibly do all of those things better than everyone else. The warfighter and the operators, they deserve the best capabilities for the mission. So, we do take it very seriously to constantly survey the environment and see who has amazing capabilities that we can bring in now and who has capabilities that we think we need in two years that maybe we should seed through our Ventures program." - Lauren Time Stamps:(00:44) The Mission and Vision of SAIC(08:04) The Impact of Defense Innovation Programs(12:23) SAIC's Approach to Partnerships(21:31) Changes in Defense Policy and Funding (39:32) Today's Modern Warfare and Information Dominance(45:30) Recommendations for Innovators for Today's DefenseLinks:Connect with Bob RitchieConnect with Lauren KnausenbergerConnect with Rob SlaughterLearn More About Defense Unicorns Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

By popular demand, we're bringing back one of the most impactful episodes! This conversation dives into the powerful link between stress and behavior in autistic children, and why compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming approaches make all the difference. You'll discover how to reframe behavior as communication, support self-advocacy, and create environments that reduce stress and meet the unique needs of autistic children. Whether you're an educator, therapist, or parent, this episode offers practical tools you can use right away. Key Takeaways: Stress and behavior are closely linked for autistic children. Environments that increase stress can make behaviors harder. Behavior is communication—understanding it is essential. Compassionate approaches focus on unmet needs, not compliance. Compliance-driven methods can harm emotional well-being. Self-advocacy is critical for safety and empowerment. Protests and refusals are valid forms of communication. Predictable routines can ease anxiety. Co-regulation helps children manage emotions. Communication tools empower autistic children to thrive.

The spaces we live in and surround ourselves with shape our thoughts, our habits, and ultimately, our destiny. In this message, Pastor Troy unpacks the importance of building intentional environments, places that align with God's Word, encourage growth, and protect us from compromise.When we guard our atmosphere, we guard our hearts (Proverbs 4:23). Scripture reminds us that environments matter: they can draw us closer to God (Psalm 92:13) or pull us away from Him (1 Corinthians 15:33).Through passages like 1 Corinthians 14:40 and Acts 2:1–4, we learn that the right atmosphere prepares us for God's presence, shapes who we are becoming, and empowers us to live on mission.This week, discover how to create environments that nurture faith, strengthen integrity, and set you on the path to intentional living.

Today, we are joined by Drs. Robert and Elizabeth Bjork.Dr. Robert A. Bjork is a Distinguished Professor of Psychology at UCLA and one of the world's foremost experts on human learning and memory. His pioneering research on concepts such as desirable difficulties, retrieval practice, and goal-directed forgetting has fundamentally reshaped how we understand what it means to learn effectively. For decades, Dr. Bjork has guided educators, leaders, and organizations in applying evidence-based strategies that enhance retention, mastery, and long-term performance. His work bridges the gap between theory and practice, helping learners update their "learning operating systems" for real-world results.Dr. Elizabeth L. Bjork is an accomplished researcher and applied learning expert, renowned for translating cutting-edge memory science into actionable strategies for adults and organizations. Her work emphasizes metacognition, context-dependent learning, and practical approaches to improving retention and skill transfer in professional settings. Elizabeth's research and guidance empower leaders, trainers, and educators to design learning experiences that stick, fostering mastery, confidence, and measurable impact across teams and organizations.In this fascinating conversation, we explore the counterintuitive principles that make learning stick and why making things harder on yourself in the right way actually enhances long-term retention. The Bjorks reveal why cramming feels effective but fails for lasting learning, how forgetting can actually strengthen memory, and why failure should be embraced as a learning opportunity rather than avoided.Key topics include:-Why "desirable difficulties" enhance learning and the illusion of mastery that comes from easy practice-The difference between storage strength and retrieval strength in memory formation-How spacing and interleaving create better long-term retention than massed practice-Why cramming works for immediate tests but fails for lasting knowledge transfer-The New Theory of Disuse and how forgetting can actually strengthen memory-Why changing contexts and environments improves learning transfer and flexibility-How retrieval practice and testing yourself enhances retention better than re-reading-Applications of learning science in sports training and professional development-The importance of embracing failure and mistakes as learning opportunities-Why variation in practice conditions leads to more robust skill developmentWhether you're a leader looking to improve team training, an educator seeking evidence-based strategies, or a professional wanting to enhance your own learning effectiveness, the Bjorks' research provides scientifically-backed insights that challenge common assumptions about how learning really works.The Bjorks' Research: https://bjorklab.psych.ucla.edu/research/-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesgood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(02:00) Tool: Academic Journeys into Mathematical Psychology and Learning Science(06:00) Technique: Why Making Things Hard on Yourself Enhances Learning(09:00) Tip: The Illusion of Mastery from Cramming vs. Lasting Learning(12:00) Tool: Storage Strength vs. Retrieval Strength in Memory Formation(15:00) Technique: Interleaving and Variation in Sports and Skills Training(19:00) Tip: The New Theory of Disuse and How Forgetting Strengthens Memory(22:00) Tool: Embracing Failure and Mistakes as Learning Opportunities(25:00) Technique: Changing Contexts and Environments for Better Transfer(28:00) Tip: The Spacing Effect and Optimal Timing for Retrieval Practice(31:00) Tool: Practical Applications Across Different Learning Domains(33:00) Conclusion
Old photos often remind us not just of where we've been, but of how much we've changed. While it's easy to see the external shifts, it's much harder to make sense of our internal journey, especially when we feel defined by our stumbles. This message explores how our moments of greatest failure can become the surprising location of our deepest healing. Discover a practical path forward where your past doesn't get the final say over your future.
What can tiny island lizards teach us about surviving a changing world? Dr. Jenkins sits down with Dr. Christian Cox, Associate Professor at Florida International University, to explore the surprising answers. Christian's research spans the colorful world of reptile evolution—why some snakes and lizards look and behave the way they do, how size and shape vary between the sexes, and what feeding habits reveal about survival. But at the heart of this conversation is his decades-long study of Anole lizards living on hundreds of islands in a massive lake linked to the Panama Canal. These natural experiments reveal how reptiles respond to sudden environmental shifts, offering clues to how wildlife may adapt in the face of climate change.Connect with Christian at FIU.

https://jo.my/z5py4k Heat Stress, Hydration & Working Outdoors: Clothing and PPE for Hot Environments Working in a warehouse during peak summer heat isn't only uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. Heat stress doesn't wait for lunchtime or breaks. It builds fast, especially when you're wearing the wrong gear. One of the top priorities of a solid Safety Culture is protecting workers from heat-related illnesses. That starts with what you wear and how you protect yourself from the sun and rising temperatures. You can feel it in the air; the heat sticking to your skin. Now imagine stacking pallets or loading trucks in that same heat, all while covered in heavy, non-breathable clothing. It's a recipe for heat exhaustion. But the good news? You can fight back with the proper PPE and clothing choices. Here's what can help reduce heat stress while keeping you safe: Go light. Select lightweight, breathable fabrics that allow your body to dissipate heat effectively—synthetic blends designed for moisture-wicking are ideal. Cotton feels good but holds sweat. And that sweat turns into a wet blanket real fast. Keep it cool. Cooling vests, neck wraps, and towels aren't just fancy add-ons. They're game-changers. When available, rotate them in during your shift. Even a damp towel around your neck during breaks helps regulate your core temperature. Ditch the dark. Black and navy clothing absorbs heat. Opt for lighter colors, such as tan, gray, or white, whenever possible. Also, avoid layering unless it's PPE-required. Vent that hard hat. Ventilated hard hats or sweat-wicking liners can make a huge difference. If yours isn't breathable, ask if there are approved alternatives. Your scalp overheats fast, and it's not something most people think about. Protect your eyes and skin. UV-rated safety glasses cut glare and protect your vision. Applying sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) to exposed skin helps prevent sunburn, especially in areas near dock doors or outdoor loading zones. Please don't skip it, even on cloudy days. Staying cool isn't just about comfort; it's also about maintaining your health. It's about avoiding heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and long-term health issues. And, believe it or not, it also keeps you more focused, resulting in fewer mistakes, better reaction times, and safer hands on the job. Discuss with your supervisor if your PPE isn't suitable for the heat. No one should be sweating through clothes that trap heat or having their safety glasses fog up every ten minutes. Heat safety begins with how you present yourself daily. Make smart choices. Listen to your body. And help your coworkers stay accountable too. Thank you for joining us for another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next week, have a great day and stay safe! #Safety #SafetyFIRST #SafetyALWAYS #StaySafe #SafetyCulture #WorkplaceSafety #SummerSafety #WorkSafeInHeat #HeatSafetyTips #BeatTheHeat #StayCoolStaySafe

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we embark on a thrilling journey through the cosmos, exploring the potential for life on Mars, a remarkable discovery in the outer solar system, and the crucial mapping of sulfur throughout our galaxy.Searching for Life on MarsA new study reveals that thick layers of clay on Mars could indicate stable environments conducive to life billions of years ago. Researchers have identified that these clay deposits likely formed in standing bodies of water, providing the right conditions for chemical weathering and potentially supporting ancient life. The findings suggest that the balance between water and carbon cycles on Mars may explain the planet's geological history and the absence of carbonate rocks. Lead author Rhianna Moore discusses how these stable terrains could have fostered habitable conditions for extended periods, offering insights into the Red Planet's wet past.Discovery of 2020 VN40: A Distant Cosmic CompanionAstronomers have discovered a rare celestial body, 2020 VN40, located far beyond Neptune, moving in perfect synchronicity with the ice giant. This trans-Neptunian object orbits the sun once for every ten orbits Neptune completes, providing new insights into the dynamics of the outer solar system. The discovery, reported in the Planetary Science journal, enhances our understanding of how distant objects interact with Neptune's gravity and offers clues about the solar system's evolution.Mapping Sulfur in the Milky WayA groundbreaking study has mapped the distribution of sulfur across the Milky Way, an essential element for life. Utilizing the CRISM X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy mission, scientists have directly measured sulfur in both its gaseous and solid forms within the interstellar medium. The findings shed light on sulfur's role in the cosmos and its potential implications for understanding life's distribution throughout the galaxy. This research marks a significant step in answering fundamental questions about the building blocks of life in the universe.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Astronomyhttps://www.nature.com/natureastronomy/Planetary Science Journalhttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2632-3338CRISM Missionhttps://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/asteroids/overview/crism.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.
