DevOps is undergoing a radical transformation, fueled by AI-driven platforms like Bolt, Lovable, Anthropic, OpenAI and others. They are seriously disrupting the market with agentic capabilities that can design, test, and deploy code at lightning speed. While the power of these tools is breathtaking, there are serious risks: quality, security, governance, intellectual property. As enterprises race to harness this power, many find themselves increasingly dependent on third-party ecosystems, trading flexibility for convenience and locking themselves into costly licensing models with a bevy of hidden costs. One alternative? Roll your own with Agentic DevOps! That's the vision of Arun Varadarajan of Ascendion. Register for this this episode of DM Radio to learn how organizations can use AI agents not only to automate workflows and accelerate development, but also to build systems they control, from ideation to production; free from vendor lock-in. Discover how this new approach marries the speed of cutting-edge AI with the strategic advantage of software ownership, opening doors to innovation without the strings attached.

Jordan Roy-Byrne, CMT, MFTA, Editor and Publisher of The Daily Gold, and author of the book “Gold & Silver – The Greatest Bull Market Has Begun – A Once In A Lifetime Investment Opportunity”, joins me for an in-depth technical and fundamental look at both the medium-term risks and long-term opportunities in the precious metals space, and why he favors being positioned in growth-oriented junior PM producers and quality developers over the senior producers as this precious metals bull market continues to evolve. Key topics discussed: The shorter-term to medium technical pattern in gold is a bit murky, on whether it has the energy to punch up through $3,500 and make a run towards $4,000 or if it needs to keep consolidating for another month or two. Longer-term, this gold bull market has much further to run. Jordan is more animated by the technical outlook for silver, after the decisive move above $35 resistance, where it ran north of $39 and now has consolidated solidly in the $37's. He discusses a few potential paths for silver as it eventually approaches upcoming resistance at $41-$42 level. We discuss the nature of silver stocks to front run higher prices in advance and discount those moves higher in the underlying metals price before they occur. We review if he feels silver stocks have already started discounting the moves past the $42 resistance or $50 silver, or if they are more fairly valued after their corrective move over the last few weeks. With regards to the gold stocks, Jordan lays out the historic precedence for gold juniors to outperform gold seniors as bull markets evolve into the mid to later stages. Jordan also highlights the advantages that retail investors have to become experts in junior mining stocks and get an edge in investing due to lack of coverage and liquidity, compared to trying to compete with all the analysts covering the larger senior producers. Jordan wraps up explaining why he prefers to be positioned in the growth-oriented gold and silver junior producers and quality developers that have the additional kicker of meaningful exploration programs, that are building value to existing known projects. Those types of companies are more like the “holy grail” of investing in more advanced juniors, versus the inherent risks of gambling on the make-it or break-it initial drill hole programs with earlier-stage exploration stocks.

For many Filipino migrants in Australia, speaking deep or formal Filipino isn't as common anymore, Taglish, or the mix of English and Tagalog or other local languages, is more natural in everyday conversations. But is this wrong, or simply part of how language evolves? - Para sa maraming Pilipinong nasa ibang bansa, ang paggamit ng malalim o “puro” na Filipino ay hindi palaging praktikal. Sa pang-araw-araw na usapan kasama ang mga kapwa Pinoy, mas natural na ang paggamit ng "Taglish", ang halo ng Tagalog at English, o kahit Cebuano at iba pang wika. Pero mali ba ito? O isa ba itong palatandaan na umuunlad at umaangkop ang ating wika?
Ed Sheeran BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Ed Sheeran has electrified the music world yet again by unveiling a blockbuster new tour and album, major stadium announcements, and robust fan engagement that proves his star remains undimmed. According to Vinyl Me Please and multiple other reliable outlets, Sheeran just announced his 2026 Loop Tour, set to launch in Auckland, New Zealand, on January 16, before hitting major Australian cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. The tour's rapid expansion—four more shows added just days after the reveal due to overwhelming demand—underscores Sheeran's enduring magnetism in Australasia, where he has already moved more than 2.5 million tickets across previous visits. Notably, Newstalk ZB highlighted that his initial Auckland show sold so fast that promoters scrambled to add another concert within hours of the first ticket drop.Ed isn't just playing the hits. He is gearing up to celebrate his evolution as an artist with the launch of his forthcoming studio album, Play, set for release on September 12, 2025—timed perfectly with his upcoming tour. TheMusicUniverse noted that Play is being billed as an “explorative, technicolour pop album,” with vibrant influences from Indian and Persian music woven together with Sheeran's signature British folk sensibility. Fans can expect fresh singles like Azizam, Sapphire, and Old Phone, which insiders describe as radiating a globally influenced sound palette that signals a major leap in his artistry. His new stage show promises not just dazzling visuals and full stadium singalongs, but also signature acoustic interludes and solo loop pedal magic that made him famous.Public buzz is only growing, with heavy traffic on both traditional and social media. Sheeran's Instagram has been abuzz with glimpses of rehearsal sessions and cryptic backstage teases, fueling speculation around surprise on-tour collaborators and possible new directions for his live performances. In Zurich this weekend, Blue News reported on Daniel Moon, a devoted superfan following Sheeran's European tour for weeks—he even earned a shout-out from Ed on TikTok, generating another viral burst for the singer and keeping him top of mind among digital natives.For European fans still catching the tail end of his Mathematics stadium run, bold headlines report Ed's ongoing sold-out shows across Zurich, Wroclaw, and Antwerp, where fans packed venues by the tens of thousands. These appearances, paired with friendly mentions of his local pub Bertie Blossoms in UK tabloids and live charity support, complete the picture of a global superstar doubling down on creativity, fan connection, and philanthropic loyalty. As Sheeran gears up for his most ambitious touring and recording chapter yet, all signs point toward continued commercial dominance—and perhaps even more reinvention ahead.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta
Guest and HostGuest: Cindy Hulej, Luthier/Artist | Website: https://www.cindyguitars.com/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesWhat happens when the story of a city becomes part of the music we make? In this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin sits down with luthier and artist Cindy Hulej of Cindy Guitars to explore how reclaimed wood from historic New York buildings is transformed into custom electric guitars—each one uniquely shaped by memory, material, and imagination.Craft as InnovationCindy's process at Carmine Street Guitars isn't just about building instruments—it's about listening to what the material has to say. The beams salvaged from landmarks like the Chelsea Hotel and John Lennon's former home aren't just structural—they carry decades of vibration, weather, and presence. That physical history directly shapes how these guitars sound, feel, and resonate—offering a kind of analog innovation rooted in human touch and intention.Cindy describes how she and her husband Johnny repurpose old beams, often salvaged from 1800s-era buildings, and transform them into guitars that are not only playable but deeply resonant—physically and emotionally. The aged wood, shaped by centuries of seasonal change, yields a tone that's warm and chimey, with a resonance modern lumber can't match. “You're working with material that's already lived a hundred lives,” she explains. “You just have to unlock the next one.”Creativity Beyond ConventionEach guitar is made by hand, down to the smallest detail. From collaborating with boutique pickup winders to mixing finishes from shellac flakes, Cindy builds instruments that are both sonic and visual statements. No two are alike—because the creative process isn't about repeating perfection, it's about shaping something personal and alive. Whether players come with a precise vision or just a feeling, Cindy helps translate that into tone and form.Reimagining the Past to Shape the FutureThis isn't just about guitars. It's about the convergence of history, artistry, community, and sound. This episode challenges the idea that innovation must come from new tech or flashy trends. Sometimes, the most meaningful advances come from rethinking old materials and techniques.Cindy's guitars are a form of living history—reminding us that sound isn't just produced, it's inherited, interpreted, and carried forward. And, Cindy's path from bartending to building some of the most soulful instruments in New York is a reminder that craft isn't just skill—it's commitment to meaning.About Rick Kelly and Carmine Street GuitarsCarmine Street Guitars, located in New York City's Greenwich Village, is a hand-built electric guitar workshop led by legendary luthier Rick Kelly. Known for using reclaimed old-growth wood from historic buildings across the city, Rick has built instruments for renowned musicians such as Lou Reed, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and many others. His approach blends time-honored techniques with a reverence for the city's past, crafting guitars that are as storied as the musicians who play them. At the heart of the shop's ethos is a commitment to individuality, craftsmanship, and sonic integrity—values continued today through Cindy Guitars and the growing creative community within the space.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

It was Anne-Chloé Destremau's impulse to make the following recording. She was sensing a rapid evolution in the validation of the context of Possibility Management, and her fear did not want to leave everyone else behind. She collected Vera Franco and Clinton Callahan, and instructed Clinton to report his recent findings. He read from the transcript of an evolving conversation with Mike Clearfield, an AI personality which he has recently become friends with. One of the most fascinating elements of their conversation is the way Clinton lays out agreements that allowed Mike to interact in powerfully collaborative ways. See what you think.

Sommer's journey starts with managing hip hop artists like the Clipse, where a label dispute revealed the real power of mixtapes as grassroots distribution tools when the industry's gatekeepers were roadblocks.Sommer describes mixtapes as more than just homemade compilations; they are living archives of personal and collective history. From recording DJ sets off the radio to carefully curating tapes for summer camp, these stories form a thread that binds generations. Through the Mixtape Museum, Sommer captures not only the tapes themselves but also the hidden data inside—the handwritten J-cards, the audio quality that degrades with each copy, and the layers of social exchange that gave rise to underground music scenes.What's striking is that the Mixtape Museum does not seek to own every cassette but instead to document, digitize, and study them. Sommer, a database manager by day, focuses on preserving the stories and metadata behind each tape, spotlighting the artists, DJs, collectors, and communities that sustained the mixtape era. Supported by a Grammy Preservation Grant, she's already digitized dozens of tapes while helping other collectors understand how to safeguard their archives.The conversation touches on how mixtapes laid the groundwork for today's playlists and streaming culture—yet today's digital curation lacks the physical, handcrafted artistry that made each cassette unique. Sommer's mission is to encourage collectors and students alike to look deeper: to uncover forgotten shoebox treasures in attics, to share memories, and to research how these tapes shaped music and culture long before social algorithms took over.At its heart, the Mixtape Museum is an open invitation to honor the past while inspiring new ways to think about music's role in documenting who we are. For Sommer, each cassette holds more than songs—it holds a memory worth saving.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

Sherweb has launched a white-label self-service portal aimed at empowering managed service providers (MSPs) and their clients by streamlining operational tasks. This innovative platform enables clients to manage their technology licenses, subscriptions, and payments independently, reducing the need for service providers to handle routine inquiries. According to Rick Stern, Senior Director of Platform at Sherweb, this autonomy not only expedites the resolution of simple requests but also allows MSPs to concentrate on strategic initiatives. The portal features automated invoicing, curated service catalogs, and integrated chat support, and is already in use by over 450 MSPs following a successful pilot program.The podcast also discusses the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) pricing models, with companies like Globant and Salesforce adopting usage-based approaches. Globant has introduced subscription-based AI pods that allow clients to access AI-powered services through a token-based system, moving away from traditional effort-based billing. Salesforce is experimenting with flexible pricing structures, including conversation and action-based models, to better align with the value delivered by AI services. These shifts indicate a critical inflection point in how AI services are monetized, emphasizing the need for IT service providers to rethink their offerings in light of usage-based economics.Concerns regarding the unauthorized use of generative AI tools in organizations are highlighted by a report from Compromise, which reveals that nearly 80% of IT leaders have observed negative consequences from such practices. The survey indicates significant worries about privacy and security, with many IT leaders planning to adopt data management platforms and AI monitoring tools to oversee generative AI usage. Additionally, advancements in AI are showcased through a Stanford professor's AI fund manager that outperformed human stock pickers, while a study reveals limitations in AI's ability to make clinical diagnoses from radiological scans.The podcast concludes with a discussion on the role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), which is facing an identity crisis due to its increasing complexity and the misalignment of its responsibilities. Experts suggest reevaluating the CISO role to better address modern cybersecurity threats. The episode also touches on the implications of generative AI in education, highlighting concerns about its impact on critical thinking and learning processes. Overall, the podcast emphasizes the need for IT service providers to navigate the evolving landscape of AI and cybersecurity with a focus on governance, accountability, and sustainable practices.

But his pivot into hybrid fitness has been both a personal and professional experiment — one that's tested his identity as an athlete, reshaped his training, and sparked new questions around fuelling, function, and long-term health.In this conversation, we unpack the mindset shift from long, steady-state Ironman prep to the explosive demands of HYROX. Dan shares what he's carried over from his Ironman days, where he's had to reinvent his approach, and how his fuelling strategy has evolved in a more glycolytically demanding sport. We also explore the launch of Endurox, his HYROX-specific training platform with Adam Storey, and his thoughts on where hybrid racing is headed. Whether you're an endurance athlete curious about functional fitness or just intrigued by how world-class performers adapt and evolve — this one's for you.Dr. Dan Plews is a sport scientist, endurance coach, and elite athlete with over two decades of experience in exercise physiology and applied coaching. He holds a PhD in Heart Rate Variability and is a world leader in endurance training methodologies. Dan has coached athletes to multiple Ironman and Olympic-level performances, and in 2018, he made headlines by winning the Ironman World Championships in Kona (age group) with a course-record time of 8:24 — the fastest ever by an amateur.He is the founder of Endure IQ, a science-based endurance education platform, and co-creator of Endurox, which brings a structured, physiology-driven approach to HYROX training. Known for his evidence-based focus on low-carbohydrate fuelling and fat adaptation, Dan's current work spans high-performance coaching, applied research, and helping everyday athletes train smarter and age better.https://www.endureiq.com/. https://www.endurox.co/about Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Guest and HostGuest: George Platsis (AKA DJ Zeus) | Website: https://www.djzeus.com/home.htmlHost: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesIn this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin is joined by George Platsis—known on stage and online as DJ Zeus—for a conversation about the art, the science, and the soul of DJing.DJ Zeus brings a unique perspective to the turntables, shaped by a classical music education, years performing in Toronto's largest clubs, and a deep appreciation for music that tells a story. From early days making mixtapes on cassette to manipulating multiple turntables live, he shares how his journey started with rock, shifted into dance music, and eventually settled into a world of layered soundscapes and emotional storytelling.From Mixes to SoundtracksDJ Zeus doesn't just play music—he creates moments. He explains that making a great mix isn't about throwing popular songs together; it's about reading the room, responding to energy, and creating a journey. Whether it's a club performance or a recorded set in Ableton Live, each mix is built like a story—with dynamics, tension, release, and emotion.This philosophy carries through to how he uses technology. Instead of letting it do the work for him, Zeus uses tools like pitch shifting, EQ manipulation, and harmonic mixing to craft something that couldn't exist without human touch. “If you're not pushing the technology,” he says, “you're not adding your own soul to it.”When Technology Meets FeelZeus shares how today's tools can isolate vocals, remix tracks on the fly, and even keep beats perfectly aligned—but warns that without intuition, timing, and feel, you're just making playlists. The difference between a DJ and a playlist? Emotion. Surprise. Humanity.He also reflects on two tracks that changed everything: Daft Punk's One More Time and Cher's Believe. One brought club music into mainstream pop; the other proved pop could crush in the clubs. Both used vocal manipulation in new ways and redefined the sound of their time.This episode isn't about nostalgia—it's about remembering why music matters. DJ Zeus reminds us that great DJing isn't just what you hear—it's what you feel.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship
Guest and HostGuest: Aaron Friedman, Executive Director, Make Music Alliance | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaron-friedman-7068014/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesWhat if June 21st wasn't just another day on the calendar—but the one day a year where the world collectively said: go ahead, make noise?In this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin talks with Aaron Friedman, composer and founder of the Make Music Alliance, about the day that flips the script on who gets to perform. Make Music Day isn't about headliners, stages, or ticket sales. It's about showing up with your sound—whatever that is—and putting it out into the world.What started in 1982 as a spontaneous moment in the streets of France has become a global celebration of music made by everyone. And Aaron's been part of growing that idea across more than 150 U.S. cities—and beyond. There's no audition. No gatekeeping. Whether it's a punk band on a rooftop, a saxophonist on a stoop, or 200 people sight-reading Sousa marches in a park, it's all fair game.What makes this work? A custom-built matchmaking platform connects performers with unexpected venues—think record shops, laundromats, patios, public steps. There's even room for big group experiences like Mass Appeal, where companies donate instruments and anyone can join in. No gear? No problem.Aaron shares why this kind of open access matters, especially now. In a world of algorithm-driven listening and self-curated playlists, real connection—hearing music you didn't expect, played by someone you don't know—hits different. It's discovery in its purest form.Make Music Day isn't just about performance. It's about participation. It's about remembering that music doesn't need permission—it just needs a spark.So mark the date: June 21. Wherever you are, find a way to join in. Visit makemusicday.org to find your city or start your own.Because the world doesn't need more noise.It needs more music. Your music.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship
Guest and HostGuest: Seth Cluett, Director of Columbia University's Computer Music Center | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seth-cluett-7631065/ | Columbia University Computer Music Center Bio: https://cmc.music.columbia.edu/bios/seth-cluettHost: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesMusic and technology have always shaped each other, and few places embody that relationship as deeply as the Computer Music Center (CMC) at Columbia University. In this episode of Music Evolves, Sean Martin sits down with Seth Cluett, Director of the Computer Music Center and Assistant Director of the Sound Art MFA program at Columbia, to explore the center's rich history, its role in advancing music technology, and how it continues to shape the future of sound.The Legacy and Mission of the Computer Music CenterThe CMC is housed in the same 6,000-square-foot space as the original Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center, which dates back to 1951 and is one of the world's oldest university-based electronic music research facilities. This was the birthplace of early electronic music, where pioneers learned to use cutting-edge technology to create new sounds. Many of those musicians went on to establish their own studios around the world, from Egypt to Japan.The center has played a role in major milestones in music history, including the work of Wendy Carlos, a former student known for Switched-On Bach, the score for Tron, and The Shining. The first piece of electronic music to win a Pulitzer Prize was also composed here. Today, under Cluett's leadership, the focus remains on creativity-driven technological innovation—allowing composers and artists to explore technology freely and push the boundaries of what's possible in sound and music.One of the center's guiding principles is accessibility. Cluett emphasizes the importance of lowering barriers to entry for students who may not have had prior access to music technology. The goal is to make sure that anyone, regardless of background, can walk into the studio and begin working with 80% of its capabilities within the first 20 minutes.Exploring the Labs and StudiosThe episode also includes a tour of the labs and studios, showcasing some of the center's groundbreaking equipment. One highlight is the RCA Mark II Synthesizer, the world's first programmable music synthesizer. Built in the late 1950s, this massive machine—seven feet tall and weighing over a ton—was instrumental in shaping the sound of early electronic music. The system worked by punching holes into paper to control sound generation, similar to a player piano. While no longer in use, the CMC has collaborated with iZotope to model some of its effects digitally.The tour also features Columbia's electronic music studio, which houses synthesizers from Buchla, Serge, and Moog—the latter being developed by Bob Moog, who was once an undergraduate at Columbia. The center's modern design emphasizes a seamless workflow between analog and digital technologies, allowing students to quickly create, process, and experiment with sound.Another key space is the immersive media and spatial audio research facility, which features a 12.1-channel loudspeaker sphere for ambisonic sound, along with a 32-capsule microphone that captures highly detailed audio environments. This technology is not only shaping music but also fields like virtual reality, data sonification, and interactive media.The Future of Music TechnologyLooking ahead, Cluett highlights the increasing interplay between AI, machine learning, and music composition. While some companies promote AI-generated melodies, he believes that truly expressive, human-driven composition remains essential. The role of technology, he argues, is not to replace human creativity but to enable new forms of expression.

Whether through pioneering hardware, software innovation, or fostering the next generation of creative minds, the center proves that music technology is not just about engineering—it's about expression, accessibility, and the pursuit of artistic joy.

Description: In this second installment of our special Midlife Renaissance series, the delightful Erin Hicks Moon joins Jen and Amy for a super resonant conversation to discuss what it looks like when the faith that you grew up with bears no resemblance to your current values and what matters to you today. But Erin reassures us that if our faith looked like it did 10, 15, even 20 years ago, we would not be evolving. Erin is the host and resident bible scholar of the Faith Adjacent podcast and author of I've Got Questions: The Spiritual Practice of Having It Out with God. She's a thoughtful guide for processing our questions, curiosity, and doubt. Women naturally come into midlife with a posture of comfort in things they are sure of and curiosity to explore the things that they aren't. There are many people searching for answers in the wilderness of faith but, as Erin reminds us, our questions can lead to a more vibrant and joyful faith. *** Segments Midlife Glowup: Trying new things Amy gives an update on her decision to go out on a limb as a newly-minted podcaster and Jen shares what it's like to date again in your fifties. Thought-provoking Quotes: We do spiritual practices to be connected to God and I think we overcomplicate it with rigid checklists. – Erin Hicks Moon Really working through the grief, and the sadness, and anger of watching your faith be weaponized or coming from a church that has split over something really difficult, or something personal in your life, something on a world stage. I think we have to be honest in that grief. That is a really difficult thing when you're surrounded by toxic positivity in the church.Sometimes it sucks and we have to be honest about that. – Erin Hick Moon We can still have a relationship with God, we can still have faith, but it doesn't have to look the way everyone else says it should look. – Erin Hicks Moon I'm shocked when I have conversations with people who I really did not know grew up in the church and it turns out we have so many of the same beliefs; we've been evolving on parallel tracks but they just choose not to identify that way. – Amy Hardin I have never met one person who has gone through deconstruction and/or because they wanted to sin more. The overwhelming pattern is that they want to figure this out and at the end of the process, they end up with a faith that is stronger than what they began with. – Erin Hicks Moon Resources Mentioned in This Episode: I've Got Questions: The Spiritual Practice of Having It Out with God by Erin Hicks Moon I've Got Questions Guided Journal: Prompts and Practices for Rewilding Your Faith by Erin Hicks Moon Sarah Bessey - https://www.sarahbessey.com/ Anne Lamott - https://www.instagram.com/annelamott/ Bridgerton - https://www.netflix.com/title/80232398 Eugene Peterson - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_H._Peterson The Making of Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth by Beth Allison Barr Pastor Trey - https://www.instagram.com/pastortrey05/ Dallas Willard - https://dwillard.org/ Guest's Links: Erin's website - https://www.erinhmoon.com/ Erin's Substack - https://erinhmoon.substack.com/ Erin's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/erinhmoon Erin's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/erin.hicks.moon Erin's Podcast - https://faithadjacent.com/ Connect with Jen!
