Episode 276 addresses a question often asked by partners of addicts in recovery: “Do I have to wait for the formal amends process before I see real change?” The authors explain that real transformation in recovery should not be postponed until Steps 8 and 9 of the 12-step model. They draw a clear distinction between a simple apology and the deeper process of making amends, emphasizing that true recovery begins with personal accountability, transparency, and a willingness to face difficult truths—not with a formal ceremony or set timeline. Waiting for a specific step to begin meaningful repair in a relationship is not only unnecessary, but often counterproductive.The article also explores why addicts may avoid transparency, citing both nefarious and sincere motivations. Some use recovery language as a shield to delay vulnerability or to avoid accountability, a behavior referred to as “weaponizing recovery.” Others may believe they need to handle everything on their own, often stemming from unhealthy family systems or distorted beliefs about responsibility. These patterns, while sometimes well-intentioned, still prevent the growth and emotional openness necessary for healing. The authors stress that full transparency should begin early in recovery, as emotional honesty is foundational for any real connection or rebuilding of trust.For betrayed partners, the article offers a roadmap for reclaiming personal empowerment. It encourages them to build outside support systems, gain clarity about their own needs, and hold firm boundaries—not as a means of controlling their partner's behavior, but to protect their own healing. The message is clear: real recovery is demonstrated through consistent honesty, presence, and vulnerability long before any formal amends are made. Partners do not have to—and should not—wait for a specific step before expecting accountability and meaningful change.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:  Do I Have to Wait for "Formal Amends" Process Before My Addict Partner Shows Any Real Change?Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

Introducing yourself at a meeting seems simple, right? But when the pressure is on, you might not know how to do it professionally in Luxembourgish. Saying your age, hobbies, and ending with "... an dat ass alles", might not be the best approach in a formal setting!

Are Forest leading the race for Liverpool flop Darwin Nunez? The Footy Network - https://www.youtube.com/@TheFootyNetwork?sub_confirmation=1 Welcome to Forest Fan TV! In this video, we're diving into the latest transfer buzz surrounding Nottingham Forest and Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez. With the summer window on the horizon, reports are swirling about a potential move for Nunez to the City Ground, and some outlets are even claiming Forest have tabled a formal £50m bid for the Uruguayan forward. But how realistic are these rumours? We'll break down the likelihood of this blockbuster transfer and ask the big question: should Forest really commit such a hefty chunk of their budget to Nunez, especially with Champions League qualification still up in the air? Alongside the transfer talk, we've got an update on Nottingham Forest's financial situation. Football finance expert Kieran Maguire has shed light on how the club turned a profit in their latest figures, and we'll explore what this means for Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) compliance and how much spending power Forest might have this summer. Will this financial boost give Nuno Espírito Santo the freedom to splash out, or should the club play it safe? We want to hear from you—drop your thoughts on Nunez's potential move to Forest in the comments below!

Send us a textSeason 2 is finally here! In today's episode, we're tackling one of the trickiest yet most commonly used words in French: "me." Whether it's acting as an object pronoun or appearing in reflexive verbs, its pronunciation shifts dramatically in real speech. Plus, if you're translating directly from English, you might be using it wrong!We'll break it all down, including:Pronunciation of "Me" in Spoken FrenchIn formal speech, "me" is pronounced as [mə] (like "muh"), but in fast speech, it almost disappears, becoming just [m']:"Il me donne un cadeau" → "Il **m'**donne un cadeau.""Tu me vois" → "T'me vois""On me dit souvent..." → "On **m'**dit souvent...""Ils me respectent" → "Ils **m'**respectent""Me" in Reflexive VerbsWhen "me" is part of a reflexive verb, meaning you're doing something to yourself, it follows the same pattern:"Je me réveille" → "J'me réveille.""Je me demande pourquoi" → "J'me demande pourquoi.""Je m'en souviens plus." → "J'me souviens plus."In real speech, these contractions happen all the time, making it essential to train your ear!Common Mistakes: "Me" vs. "Moi"English interference can lead to unnatural sentences like:❌ "Me, I love it!" → WRONG: "Me, j'adore ça!" ✅ CORRECT: "Moi, j'adore ça!"Another classic mistake: ❌ "Il a dit me" → WRONG ✅ CORRECT: "Il m'a dit."Listening Practice: Real-Life ReductionsTime to train your ear! In this section, you'll hear how "me" changes in casual vs. formal speech.Masculine Examples:Slang: J'me souviens plus. → Formal: Je ne me souviens plus. → English: I don't remember anymore.Slang: Il m'mérite pas! → Formal: Il ne me mérite pas! → English: He doesn't deserve me!Slang: Ils m'm'ont tout pris! → Formal: Ils m'ont tout pris! → English: They took everything from me!Feminine Examples:Slang: Elles m'matent bizarrement. → Formal: Elles me regardent bizarrement. → English: They're looking at me weirdly.Slang: Ça m'ménerve! → Formal: Ça me dérange! → English: That annoys me!Final Thoughts & Recap"Me" as an object pronoun: Il m'aide."Me" in reflexive verbs: J'me prépare.Don't use "me" for emphasis—use "moi" instead!Homework & ChallengeTry listening for "me" reductions in TV shows, movies, and conversations. The more you expose yourself to real spoken French, the more natural it will sound!Thanks for listening—send in your questions, and see you next time!

In this episode, Frankie Tortora and Steve Folland have a chat in response to a question from Detective Don Burns aka Anonymous. They say:“Hi Frankie and Steve!I have a childcare question for you…With our first born, we never considered putting her in nursery. I reduced my hours at my (employed) job and my partner and I shared looking after her by working alternate days.This time around I'm self-employed, and with my partner now working 5 days a week, I'm only able to work after 4pm which is really hard. I'm getting work done, but it's incredibly difficult to get motivated to work at that time.Our youngest is now 2 and therefore qualifies for the 15 ‘free' hours a week. But we both feel incredibly guilty about thinking of using a nursery, even for a couple of afternoons a week. I personally feel like I'm being selfish, because we are making it work at the moment without formal childcare, and the number 1 reason we'd put him in a nursery would be so I can work during the day a bit more.Sooo, can I have your pros and cons for using paid-for childcare when you're in a situation like mine? When you don't NEED to.Thank youPs. I'd like a detective name please”What would your advice be?

Rembrandt van Rijn is the best known of all the Dutch masters. His range was vast, from landscapes to portraits to Biblical scenes; he revolutionised every medium he handled, from oil paintings to etchings and drawings. His vision encompassed every element of life – the sleeping lion; the pissing baby; the lacerated soles of the returned prodigal son. Making the case for him in this debate was Simon Schama. For him Rembrandt is humanity unedited: rough, raw, violent, manic, vain, greedy and manipulative. Formal beauty was the least of his concerns, argues Schama, yet he attains beauty through his understanding of the human condition, including to be sure, his own. But for novelist Tracy Chevalier it can all get a little exhausting. Rembrandt's paintings, she believes – even those that are not his celebrated self-portraits – are all about himself. Championing Vermeer, she claimed that his charm lies in the very fact that he absents himself from his paintings. As a result they are less didactic and more magical than Rembrandt's, giving the viewer room to breathe. Chevalier has been obsessed with Vermeer since the age of 19, when she first saw his Girl with a Pearl Earring. The girl's startled eyes and luscious, inviting mouth produce a tantalising sense of mystery and contradiction. An other-worldly mystery also veils Vermeer's Delft street scenes and interiors. Apparently so everyday, they are lifted to a higher sphere by the indirect gaze and the turned back, all bathed in that fuzzy, filmic Vermeer veneer. And so often they, too, ask a question. Who wrote the letter that the woman in blue reads so attentively? Who does the girl in the gold jacket strum her guitar for? The questions are never answered but we are lured back again and again in search of an answer. Which of these two titans is the greater master – Rembrandt or Vermeer? ------ If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

During a storm, the calmest place is the center of the hurricane, also called the "eye of the storm." There is no strong wind here, a person calms down and relaxes, but all this is illusory and temporary, like the hurricane itself. The life of each person is a cyclone that can change everything in seconds. We all need to learn to live in this, realizing the illusory nature and brevity of any moment of existence.

If a business has spent $100 million developing a product, it's a fair bet that they don't want it stolen in two seconds and uploaded to the web where anyone can use it for free.This problem exists in extreme form for AI companies. These days, the electricity and equipment required to train cutting-edge machine learning models that generate uncanny human text and images can cost tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. But once trained, such models may be only a few gigabytes in size and run just fine on ordinary laptops.Today's guest, the computer scientist and polymath Nova DasSarma, works on computer and information security for the AI company Anthropic with the security team. One of her jobs is to stop hackers exfiltrating Anthropic's incredibly expensive intellectual property, as recently happened to Nvidia. Rebroadcast: this episode was originally released in June 2022.Links to learn more, highlights, and full transcript.As she explains, given models' small size, the need to store such models on internet-connected servers, and the poor state of computer security in general, this is a serious challenge.The worries aren't purely commercial though. This problem looms especially large for the growing number of people who expect that in coming decades we'll develop so-called artificial ‘general' intelligence systems that can learn and apply a wide range of skills all at once, and thereby have a transformative effect on society.If aligned with the goals of their owners, such general AI models could operate like a team of super-skilled assistants, going out and doing whatever wonderful (or malicious) things are asked of them. This might represent a huge leap forward for humanity, though the transition to a very different new economy and power structure would have to be handled delicately.If unaligned with the goals of their owners or humanity as a whole, such broadly capable models would naturally ‘go rogue,' breaking their way into additional computer systems to grab more computing power — all the better to pursue their goals and make sure they can't be shut off.As Nova explains, in either case, we don't want such models disseminated all over the world before we've confirmed they are deeply safe and law-abiding, and have figured out how to integrate them peacefully into society. In the first scenario, premature mass deployment would be risky and destabilising. In the second scenario, it could be catastrophic — perhaps even leading to human extinction if such general AI systems turn out to be able to self-improve rapidly rather than slowly, something we can only speculate on at this point.If highly capable general AI systems are coming in the next 10 or 20 years, Nova may be flying below the radar with one of the most important jobs in the world.We'll soon need the ability to ‘sandbox' (i.e. contain) models with a wide range of superhuman capabilities, including the ability to learn new skills, for a period of careful testing and limited deployment — preventing the model from breaking out, and criminals from breaking in. Nova and her colleagues are trying to figure out how to do this, but as this episode reveals, even the state of the art is nowhere near good enough.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Rob's intro (00:00:52)The interview begins (00:02:44)Why computer security matters for AI safety (00:07:39)State of the art in information security (00:17:21)The hack of Nvidia (00:26:50)The most secure systems that exist (00:36:27)Formal verification (00:48:03)How organisations can protect against hacks (00:54:18)Is ML making security better or worse?
