Washington State is on the brink of completing America's first comprehensive, statewide inventory of every single sidewalk and pedestrian path — and along with it, a collection of tools that make it easy for transportation professionals and every day travelers to see exactly where those paths fall short.  But why did it take any American state so long to create something like this, even in an era of Google Maps and ubiquitous AI? And what will it take to bring it to communities across the country in a way that lasts — and allows the data to keep getting better?  Today on The Brake, we chat with Dr. Anat Caspi about the resource she's calling OS Connect — short for Open Sidewalks — and the upcoming conference to explore the challenges and opportunities of leveraging big data for big change in the pedestrian realm. And along the way, we explore how her late daughter, Aviv, helped inspire her work, the tool named in her honor, and the importance of "anti-ableist AI" and bringing the human perspective to technology.

Er zijn mensen die precies weten wat ze willen maken. Die hun carrière plannen als een route op Google Maps: start, bestemming, geschatte aankomsttijd.Mette Hoekstra is dat niet.Alle wegen leiden naar Rome, zegt men. Voor Mette gold het andersom: Rome was waar het begon. 2002. Niet met een plan, maar met aanwezig zijn. Amsterdam volgde. Dan Londen. Dan Spanje. Dan het Mejuffrouw Boomplein in Bussum, wat op zich al een bestemming is die je niet kunt verzinnen. (Maar die ze wel heeft helpen mee bouwen) Net als De Groene Afslag.Onderweg ontwierp ze onder andere de Tony Chocolonely-reep, die iedereen wel eens heeft gegeten. Een reep die je herkent zodra je de naam hoort. Dat ontwerp zegt veel over hoe Mette denkt: niet vanuit het product, maar vanuit de mensen. Vanuit de gedeelde herinnering. Vanuit wat al bestaat voordat jij er iets aan toevoegt.Dat is creëren op een manier die ik zelden zo helder heb horen verwoorden.In ons gesprek voor De Dag dat Alles Anders Werd hadden we het over rommelmarkten, over ruimte maken, over werk dat voelt als werk en werk dat voelt als leven. Over liefde ook, want dat kon niet anders.Maar wat ik meenam was iets anders.Mette volgt haar hart. Niet als cliché, niet als Instagram-caption. Als navigatiemethode. Ze gaat ergens naartoe omdat het klopt, niet omdat het logisch is. En dat vraagt iets. Vertrouwen, namelijk. In jezelf. In het proces. In de rommel die er tussenin zit. Trouwens rommel blijkt dat ook heel vaak niet te zijn. Ik weet niet of je dat kunt leren. Maar ik denk dat je het kunt oefenen.Veel plezier met deze aflevering.

Parce que… c'est l'épisode 0x711! Shameless plug 25 et 26 février 2026 - SéQCure 2026 31 mars au 2 avril 2026 - Forum INCYBER - Europe 2026 14 au 17 avril 2026 - Botconf 2026 28 et 29 avril 2026 - Cybereco Cyberconférence 2026 9 au 17 mai 2026 - NorthSec 2026 3 au 5 juin 2026 - SSTIC 2026 19 septembre 2026 - Bsides Montréal Description Introduction : une menace sous-estimée Dans cet épisode, l'animateur reçoit Vicky Desjardins, dont le parcours en criminologie l'a amenée à se spécialiser dans la victimisation en ligne. Sa motivation est à la fois professionnelle et personnelle : devenue tante, elle souhaite rendre le monde numérique plus sécuritaire pour ses neveux et nièces. Le constat de départ est clair : la technologie n'est pas aussi inoffensive qu'on veut bien nous le faire croire, et ses dangers — tant sur la santé mentale que sur le plan criminel — restent largement méconnus du grand public. Les jeunes : une cible de plus en plus jeune L'un des points les plus frappants de la discussion est le rajeunissement des victimes potentielles. Là où l'on parlait autrefois de risques à partir de 13 ou 15 ans, on constate aujourd'hui des situations problématiques dès 6 ou 7 ans. Cette réalité est amplifiée par les fonctionnalités vocales des plateformes, qui éliminent la barrière de l'écriture et permettent aux très jeunes enfants de communiquer sans difficulté avec des inconnus. Vicky souligne également que l'éducation à la sécurité en ligne a longtemps ciblé principalement les filles, laissant les garçons sous-éduqués face aux risques. Pourtant, ces derniers sont eux aussi très visés, notamment via les plateformes de jeux vidéo — un environnement qu'ils fréquentent depuis bien plus longtemps. Des jeux comme Roblox, Minecraft ou World of Warcraft permettent des communications en temps réel, créant un terrain fertile pour le grooming (manipulation progressive d'un enfant par un prédateur). Le grooming par les jeux vidéo La particularité du grooming en ligne, par rapport aux dangers du monde physique, réside dans la création d'un lien de confiance progressif. Contrairement à l'image du « monsieur louche dans le parc », le prédateur numérique prend le temps de construire une amitié. Pendant que l'enfant est concentré sur son jeu, les conversations se déroulent en parallèle, sans que son attention critique soit pleinement mobilisée. Le prédateur exploite des expériences universelles — les devoirs difficiles, les tensions scolaires — pour créer des points communs avec sa victime, quel que soit l'écart d'âge. Il peut mentir sur son identité, son âge, et capter rapidement les expressions propres à chaque génération. Avec le temps, la garde de l'enfant baisse : il perçoit son interlocuteur comme un ami, ce qui rend toute mise en garde ultérieure beaucoup plus difficile. La géolocalisation aggrave encore la situation. Des applications comme Snapchat, Instagram ou même Google Maps — utilisé de façon détournée par des jeunes pour planifier des rencontres via des points placés dans l'océan — permettent de savoir en temps réel où se trouvent les enfants. Ce qui était autrefois un obstacle logistique pour un prédateur (se déplacer sur des centaines de kilomètres) peut désormais se réduire à quelques kilomètres. Le rôle des parents : communication plutôt que contrôle Face à ces risques, Vicky déconseille de miser uniquement sur les contrôles parentaux technologiques, qu'elle juge souvent inefficaces, mal conçus, et facilement contournés par des enfants même très jeunes. Une surveillance excessive reproduit d'ailleurs un effet bien connu : les enfants les plus encadrés sont souvent les premiers à chercher à s'émanciper en cachette. La clé, selon elle, réside dans la création d'un environnement de confiance. Il faut que l'enfant se sente à l'aise de venir parler à ses parents sans craindre d'être puni. Cela commence par des gestes simples et non technologiques : valoriser l'honnêteté de l'enfant lorsqu'il avoue une bêtise, s'excuser soi-même en tant que parent quand on fait une erreur, et montrer qu'une conversation difficile n'entraîne pas automatiquement des conséquences sévères. Ce lien de confiance constitue le meilleur « contrôle parental » qui soit. Il importe aussi de connaître les influenceurs que suivent ses enfants en ligne et de surveiller certains signes d'alerte comportementaux, comme des attitudes sexistes envers les sœurs ou des comportements d'hypersexualisation précoce. Les aînés : une vulnérabilité différente La seconde partie de l'épisode s'intéresse aux personnes âgées, qui font face à des menaces différentes mais tout aussi sérieuses. La fraude aux grands-parents est la plus connue : un escroc se fait passer pour un proche en difficulté (emprisonné à l'étranger, par exemple) et réclame un transfert d'argent urgent. Vicky recommande d'établir avec ses aînés un mot de passe ou un souvenir personnel — quelque chose qui ne figure nulle part sur internet — pour vérifier l'identité de l'appelant. Il existe aussi des arnaques en personne, où des fraudeurs se présentent dans des résidences pour personnes âgées en se faisant passer pour des employés de banque. L'arnaque au pig butchering — qui consiste à gagner la confiance d'une victime pendant des semaines avant de la convaincre d'investir massivement en cryptomonnaie, puis de disparaître avec les fonds — est particulièrement dévastatrice, car elle exploite à la fois l'isolement et le désir de bien faire fructifier ses économies. Vicky rappelle aussi qu'il est tout à fait acceptable de ne pas répondre à un message ou un appel d'un numéro inconnu. La pression à la politesse est souvent utilisée contre les victimes. Conclusion : socialisation réelle et vigilance partagée Le message final est simple mais fondamental : rien ne remplace la socialisation dans le monde réel pour développer l'esprit critique et la capacité à détecter ce qui est anormal. Il faut investir du temps avec les enfants comme avec les aînés pour qu'ils comprennent les risques du monde numérique dans lequel ils évoluent. La technologie a ses bons côtés, mais elle ne doit pas devenir un substitut aux liens humains authentiques — ni pour les plus jeunes, ni pour les plus vulnérables.

Hablamos con la cantante Nikki García. El próximo 6 marzo publica su primer LP en castellano, que llegará en formato digital y de manera autoeditada. Aunque el título del disco aún permanece en secreto, las canciones ya conocidas permiten intuir un trabajo coherente, valiente y profundamente personal, donde cada herida se convierte en melodía y cada recuerdo en un acto de afirmación. Nikki García ha pasado los últimos 18 años poniendo voz a cientos de historias: anuncios, audiolibros, doblajes de películas, series y videojuegos, además de acompañarnos a diario como la icónica voz de Google Maps y del Asistente de Google. Pero detrás de esa profesional capaz de habitar mil personajes se escondía una máscara más difícil de sostener: la de una felicidad permanente. Su proyecto musical nace precisamente de ese desvelamiento.

And that's what Meredith Curtis is here to talk to us about. So, welcome Meredith. Thanks for being here.Meredith: Oh, thank you for having me. I'm really excited about this year's conference and I love this topic we're talking about. I either call it tools of learning or the seven Rs and they're just so helpful in staying focused and making the majors the majors and the minors the minors.Kerry: That's a great way to put it. We're going to dive into her seven Rs and how it can apply to your homeschool. But before we do that, could you just tell our listeners a little bit about you?Meredith: Yes, I would love to. So, my name is Meredith Curtis and I am a pastor's wife. I'm the mother of five homeschool graduates and I have eight grandchildren that are perfect angels and I feed them too much sugar.I love spending time with my grandchildren. I love to travel. I love to read. I love Jesus. That's probably the most important thing. And I'm a writer and a speaker.Kerry, I love creating curriculum. I love teaching. I love creating curriculum. I love writing Bible studies, studying the Bible. Probably one of my favorite things is I wrote a curriculum called Who Done It? It's my most popular book, and it basically is a high school English class that teaches teens how to write their own cozy mystery.And I actually started writing a cozy mystery series. I have three books in it so far—Tea Time Trouble, Pumpkin Patch Peril, and Old-Fashioned Christmas Murder.Kerry: Okay, y'all. She has two interviews and we've talked about the cozy mysteries in the last one. So, y'all go listen to that. But I was just fascinated. I knew she taught the kids, but now she's written three of her own mystery books. And so, I just think that is so exciting as well. Plus, her husband, does he have four books out now?Meredith: He does. Well, he actually has a fifth book that's not fiction. It's called Forging Godly Men, and it's about mentoring godly men.Kerry: The other ones are novels. So he's got the four novels plus the one on raising our boys to be godly men. Today we're going to talk about writing, but let's back up. I know you either call it the tools of learning or the seven Rs. How did you discover these tools of learning?How the 7 Rs Were Born from CrisisMeredith: Okay. So, I was in my early 40s and I had a four-year-old, five-year-old, six-year-old. My oldest was already graduating from high school, starting college. And so I had this wide range of five children.And my parents got really sick, Kerry. They were so sick and they live four hours away. So I was constantly taking a trip down to South Florida. I live in Central Florida and I would drive that 4 hours and stay with them a few days and then come home.I had to leave one of the older kids in charge of one or two of the younger ones and bring another older one with me with the younger one. And it was just very challenging. And of course, I was heartbroken because my parents were very sick.So during that time, I had to just ask the Lord, "What is the most important thing for my kids to get done?" Because they're going to be doing school apart from me. And the other one, we're going to be in the hospital or we're going to be in doctor's offices or we're going to be taking care of my parents. And I need to be able to at a glance know that they're getting it. So I really need help, Lord.And that is, you know, this is kind of birthed from that. You think about the three Rs, reading, writing, arithmetic. So, this is kind of what I felt like I discovered as a homeschool mom, that these were the tools of learning, the majors, and that if some of the other stuff fell by the wayside, these tools that I kept focusing on were going to allow them to learn anything at all that they needed.It was a really sad season in my life and my mom ended up passing away. My father moved close to us and then two years later he passed away. So it was a very hard season but out of that the Lord taught me not just life lessons but homeschooling lessons. God always brings good things out of very sad things.Kerry: I'm so sorry for your loss. And yet I see it because you got to take care of the majors and let go of things. And there are seasons in homeschooling, seasons in our lives that you may not go to every activity or every art lesson or whatever. You've got to just take care of the majors.Relationships: The Foundation of EverythingKerry: I know that you and I, there's one thing in particular even beyond academics and that's relationships. So why would you say relationships are so foundational to everything else?Meredith: Well, I think that life is basically number one thing relationship. God says he wants to have a relationship with us. In Revelation, he stands at the door and knocks and if anyone hears his voice, he comes in and eats with them. And you only eat with people you like. You know what I mean? Like that's relationship.So I think we have a relational God. He created people to be relational. And learning, I think when learning is birthed out of strong relationships, it is so different because I love Jesus. So I want to learn because I want to glorify him. I want to know what did he create and how does things work.When I became a Christian at 16, learning was a whole new thing for me. It just fascinated me. What is God doing in history? What is he doing here? And so I think when relationships are strong, that's the vertical relationship, but my relationship with my children, if my children know how much I love them, how much I respect them, how much I want their life to be blessed and fulfilled, they're going to be motivated to learn, not just for me, but with me.I think we learn as a family. I didn't know everything when I started homeschooling. I loved learning along the way. And every time we went back through US geography, I learned more.In contrast to that, when relationships are bad and there's yelling, there's always going to be fighting in a home, especially if you have more than one child. But how you resolve it can be resolved in a way that they can be closer afterward.But if there is constant bickering, if your children don't feel like you're for them, if you don't have a high opinion of your children, you're frustrated with them, learning doesn't really take place well. They might be learning, but so often in those situations, I see kids memorizing facts for a test, but they don't enjoy learning.I have just had some of my middle school classes that I teach online. These kids, they're not shy yet, you know, like some of the high schoolers are shy, but they're just—I love learning. And I think they have a family, a home that's happy, that they feel loved by their family and it always bears it out when they talk about their parents, they talk about their siblings, it's positive.So, I think relationships set the atmosphere, but also all the studies I've ever read, the most confident people know that they're loved. And when our children know that they're loved, it gives them a confidence that they can learn anything.Kerry: So good. And really, relationships are what's going to last forever and ever. I mean, even beyond this earth. And so we want to build those good relationships.Plus sometimes, you know, later in life, your kids, their siblings, they may need their siblings to be there for them. And we need to build that relationship and that security so that when they take that risk to go learn something that they're not really sure if they know how to go learn it, then they still feel safe in doing that.The Seven Rs ExplainedKerry: I know you've got these seven Rs. Can you just sort of rattle them off real quickly for us so people sort of have an understanding of what we're talking about?Meredith: Okay. So it would be relationships, reading, rhetoric—it's really communication and thinking—and then writing, research, arithmetic, and right living.Kerry: We're going to dive into some of these. And you mentioned rhetoric and that's a term that's sometimes thrown around. I believe that a couple hundred years ago, everyone really understood that because it was just part of education. And in the 20th century, we have really gotten away from that term. So tell us just a little bit about what that is and why that would be a tool of learning for our kids.Rhetoric: Learning to Think and CommunicateMeredith: Okay. So rhetoric is basically communicating in a way to inform or persuade. Cicero wrote about rhetoric, Aristotle wrote about rhetoric and people still read those. They're not really difficult reading, but some high school kids would enjoy reading those two men. Aristotle was Greek, Cicero was Roman.And it's basically being able to think through things and being able to communicate. So it would cover everything from greeting people and having casual conversations with them, saying, "Oh, Kerry, how are you today?" things like that. And then it would go all the way to watching the news and saying, "Okay, is this logical? Does this make sense? Does this jive with this over here?"And then being able to communicate in conversations, even as far as speaking, eventually reading aloud, all those things to communicate clearly and concisely and graciously.We have some really dynamic speakers in our day, Kerry, that are so ungracious. And sometimes I listen, I'm like, I agree with everything you say, but I wish you would be nicer or you wouldn't use bad language. And so, all of that is involved in rhetoric—the thinking and then what we allow to come through our mouth.Kerry: That is so good. And we need to teach our kids how to communicate instead of just regurgitate a bunch of facts which tends to be sort of our school system. And I could go off and tell y'all stories but we're not going to.Reading: From Struggle to SuccessKerry: I sort of jumped straight to rhetoric and I overlooked reading. Because you sort of have to be able to read. I mean, you can communicate like this, but we need to be able to read to then be able to make decisions and think through and think critically to then communicate. So, can you tell us just a little bit about raising our kids to be able to read and not hate it, maybe actually enjoy it a little bit?Meredith: Yes. Yes. And so, I mean, I could do a whole workshop on this, so I'm going to be really quick, but basically, teach your kids to read. I taught with phonics. I thought it was very simple. But teach them to read and then once they can read, give them everything possible that they can read that's easy and makes them feel successful.In everything when you're homeschooling, you want to lead children from success to success to success, a challenge, then more success, success, success, so that they're mostly feeling confident and then sometimes challenged.And so with reading, they read all these easy readers and then you start introducing classic literature like Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little and then you just keep going with classic literature.The reason I say classic literature is because a lot of the writing even for adults in our culture is at about a third grade level if you went a hundred years ago. So, if we want our children to value freedom, they're going to have to read things by John Locke. They're going to have to read things by Edmund Burke, and they're going to need to be able to read at a stronger level.So, when you keep giving children classic books, the stories are amazing. It's going to build their vocabulary. It's going to help their reading, and they're eventually going to be interested. They hear about a topic, they'll think, "Oh, I'll pick up that book and read it."The way I really made sure that my children enjoyed reading, that was my goal for them to enjoy reading. So I never assigned books until they were in high school.What I did is I had a bookshelf and it had about six shelves and I filled it. They could read anything they wanted from that bookshelf and they just had to tell me the book they read and I would write it down and I would say did you like it or who was your favorite character or what was your favorite thing about it.I never had them—I taught them how to write a book report and they wrote like two or three but that wasn't my goal because I wanted them to love to read and I wanted them to meet friends in make-believe places, in real places and say I want to go back, I want to read that again. So that was my goal.My son was my hardest and he just hated to read and he loved math but he didn't like reading. And so I remember he got saved in like middle school and he came to me. He's like, "Mom, I didn't read any of those books I told you that I read." And so this summer I'm going to read them all because now I want to live for God.But in high school, by the time he graduated from high school, his favorite book was The Count of Monte Cristo, which is like a thousand-page book. So eventually he learned to read. I never gave up on him. But I always tried to find things that he would like, series that he would like. He loved biographies and I got him a lot of biographies. I got him like all these war books about, you know, this bomber, this plane.My goal the whole time was I want my children to love to read and to be able to read anything they want.And I just want to add this. If you have a child with a learning disability, don't just limit them to listening to audio books for the rest of their life. Maybe they need to listen to every other book audio because the reading assignments are too much. But if they're going to do audio, have them read along with the book and follow with the book because that is going to help them to become a stronger reader.There's also a lot of tools for kids with learning disabilities. Don't give up on reading. I've met like 11th graders and they're like, "I don't read. I just listen to audiobooks" and I'm like, "Oh, I'm going to challenge you to read."I had one student like that. And he said, "Okay, I'm going to read this book." And we were reading Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford. He didn't get the modern translation. He got the one from the 1600s.And I said, "Honey, this was the worst book that you will ever read in your life. And if you got through that, you can read anything." And he loved to read after that, but his mom had told him he couldn't. He had a learning disability. And so he had a lot of drive to be able to read like the other kids in our homeschool co-op.I think reading opens the door. You have to read emails, you have to read texts, but reading is just such an open door to adventure. So, I love reading. I'm a very big fan. My parents were both big fans of reading, too.Kerry: Well, and I think your story plays out. I know for me, you've got to get if you have a child that doesn't like to read, continue to search for something of their interest. And you just have to be patient and give them grace. Give yourself grace.My son did not—I mean he could read, he could read a book and he would do it but did he enjoy it? No. And now he's 31 years old and once he got out of college, he loves to read. We exchange titles but like that was 15 years of time just waiting and you're thinking oh next month they're going to love to read.Look, God takes time to work with me so be patient and give yourself years. For my son, it was 12 years.Kerry: And we're like, okay, our kids are grown. Take it from someone that's already been there, not someone that's in the same level as you are.Writing: From Speaking to the PageKerry: So we have reading, we've got rhetoric. Then the next thing, what do you see as any kind of secret to writing effectively?Meredith: Well, I think if you can communicate an idea, then it's easier to write it. So if you can speak, it's easier to write.So what I would often do with my children is—number one, if I was asking them to write a paragraph, we would read paragraphs together. See how this is a topic sentence and how these sentences—or let's read this essay. This is so interesting.First of all, I think for writing, you have to be able to read the kind of writing that you're going to write. Children just don't naturally know how to write an essay. And if you give them the directions, but you don't give them an example, they still don't know what to do.I would always have my children talk to me. Tell me what you want to write about. And then we would just talk and oh that's a great idea. And you know, kind of helping them think through. I had a pattern for teaching writing.I spent a couple of years on sentences because a good sentence makes or breaks a paper. And I still, you know, I teach high school kids and I have some of them who can't write good sentences. So we spent a lot of time writing sentences.First they were so young they would dictate to me and I would write it and then soon they could write their own and then we wrote paragraphs and we wrote all kinds of different paragraphs and we always enclosed our writing in a letter to grandparents because that teaches children early on.Okay, so you're writing this paragraph for grandma, then you're going to write it differently than this paragraph that you're writing for Aunt Julie because she's interested in horses whereas grandma is interested in books and knitting. It teaches them to think in terms of an audience which is really important when you write.So then from paragraphs we would actually move to reports, essays and things like that in middle school. So we did a lot of basic writing and then whenever they wanted to write stories, I'd say, "Oh yeah, write the story." And if they couldn't write well, they could dictate to me and I would type it on the computer.Then in high school, we did all the analyzing literature, writing a research paper. We wrote a novel one year. And fiction is very different than writing non-fiction. So I think my kids wrote every kind of essay, every kind of report. But I tried to make it really fun.And one thing I also did in high school was I'd say, "Okay, here's a paper from two years ago. I'd like you to turn it into a blog post." And they really enjoyed that. But blogging is a completely different kind of writing than writing an essay.We always shared our writing with other people because I wanted them to have in their mind an audience. Whenever I teach homeschool co-op classes, I always have the kids read their papers out loud and that allows them to have an audience.So I say when you're writing this paper, look around the room. This is your audience and you're going to read it out loud to them and you want to write something they'll enjoy. So when I grade their writing papers, I always look for readability. Is it enjoyable to read? Is it written for the audience?And three of my children went into writing. So one became an editor at a magazine and she writes—now she has her own business. She writes. My other daughter taught writing and literature at the local university and now she's a stay-at-home mom. And my youngest daughter has written a screenplay and short stories and stuff like that.Now my daughter Juliana who works for Verizon says she hates writing but she's actually a very good writer. She just doesn't like it.Kerry: That is so good. You know you said something that I know we did a lot in the beginning years. It is easier for kids to speak sentences than to write their first few sentences. So if they speak it as a sentence, I would type up—Hunter would be talking to me about snakes or whatever we read about and we would type it, then the next day he would copy it or edit it.The other thing is giving your kids a reason to write and getting a grade is not a real life reason to write. You've got to have an audience. And if there's an audience, that alone can motivate some kids to actually do a better job because they feel like they're writing to a person. And if you're just writing for a grade, that's sort of dull sometimes.Arithmetic: Consistency and MasteryKerry: We've got writing, then we have arithmetic. And I know there's some moms that have some fear. I was a math minor and by the time my kids got in high school I was like what did I learn in my math minor years? I loved math in high school but by then I didn't really care for math as much. So what kind of tips can you give them because we do need our kids to be able to use math skills?Meredith: I think my number one tip for math would be do math every day and put a time limit on it so it doesn't feel like, oh my goodness, I'm going to be here two hours to finish this lesson. But I think consistency is the most important thing with math.And be confident. Don't be afraid to hire a tutor for math or to put your kids in a co-op class for math because if mom hates math then it's hard for kids to like math. And I have a friend named Leanne and she did so much tutoring in our church for co-op kids because their moms just hated math.I was like you—when my son took calculus I said honey, no idea. I don't know. But so I would say make sure that they're scoring 90% or higher on their tests and they know why they got the problems wrong.And here's why. The early years they learn so many foundational things. And a lot of times when I'm helping kids who have trouble with pre-algebra, with algebra, with algebra 2 or geometry, it goes all the way back to fractions and decimals and multiplying and dividing.One child was really struggling with math. So I just repeated a grade. I just repeated a whole grade in a different curriculum. And she ended up joining this engineering club called Math Counts in middle school and went all the way to state. So she wasn't dumb. She just needed more repetition.I hear people say, "Well, why should they do repetition?" Well, I would say that math is learning to get the problems right over and over and over again until you're solid.I always started with math because I feel like it kind of gets all the neurons charged and working—like sort of the workout for the brain. But again, I would just do it every day. It's better to do a half hour of math every day than do like a slug session for three hours because you're behind.If kids get behind in math, they get behind in math and that means we do some math over the summer. That was kind of how I looked at it. But I was a real stickler with math and as a result the kids did well with math. But it wasn't necessarily anyone's favorite except for Jimmy my son.Kerry: Well you know I think you hit on another good point—mastery. I was a public school teacher and we did have a minimum but nowadays it didn't matter if you know it or not. You just keep moving those kids through the school. What's the point?If those kids do not understand single-digit division, they're not going to understand long division. So, work on it. And, you know, you can find some fun activities to make it all work. There's lots of hands-on. I do believe mastery in math because it is sequential and it keeps building on it like you said with geometry.Meredith: That's a good point. Math is one of the few things that is sequential. Everything else you could learn, you know, American Revolution and then ancient history. It doesn't matter. But math is sequential. And so if they don't learn the basics, they're always going to struggle.Research: Beyond "Hey Google"Kerry: Okay. So after arithmetic, next we have got research. So how is that a tool? How would you encourage moms?Meredith: Okay. Well, I think right now if you say research, people just look things up on Google.Kerry: I know that's true. Or you know what? My grandkids wouldn't look it on Google. I'm not going to do it because I've got a little Google machine. They just go, "Hey, Google." And then they'd ask whatever that question is and let it speak to them and they don't even have to read it. They'll just listen.Meredith: I always think, what if an enemy of the US just shut down our internet for a week? It would be like, oh my goodness.But I think it's important for kids to know how to find things in books, like how to read a textbook to find the table of contents and how to go find the subject you're looking for. How to use directories, how to use an atlas, how to use maps. They could use Google Maps, but how did they find stuff on Google Maps?And then just being able to go to different kinds of research books like a dictionary, a thesaurus, an encyclopedia, and then actually to research—to look things up and to find different books about it and research a topic and especially in research to read about opposing viewpoints.I think that's very important to read about this viewpoint and this viewpoint that are completely polar opposites. I think that's an important part of research because there's been a main point in our school system for years and it's been like almost brainwashing kids but we don't want to do the same thing.We want to make sure that our children know both sides of the issue and then where we stand and why we stand where we stand logically, not just based on emotion.I think that's an important part of research. It kind of ties in with rhetoric. Also everything is research from looking up a recipe and finding the best recipe to researching for a research paper.And so, you know, one of the things about research is trying out different things until you find what's best. Trying out different exercises till you find the one that works the best or you enjoy the most. So, research is really a lifelong thing.Kerry: Even if you are saying, "Hey, Google."Meredith: Yes. They're like, "Oh, Gigi, that's okay. We'll go find—here. Come here." And they take me over to their little machine and ask it a question. Sometimes they understand, the girls, sometimes they don't.Kerry: That is so good. And I like that idea of research is all different things. It's not just writing a research paper. My kids actually every year in high school had to write one research paper. And we just really—the requirements in ninth grade were different than the 12th grade because hopefully they were growing in their research skills as well. And they do have to write so many research papers in college. So that was probably really helpful for them.Now we got AI. So y'all go listen to the AI talks that we have in this summit because we're going to show you—no, you can't just go get AI to write your research paper. So we got a few little speakers on that. Y'all probably need to go listen.Meredith: Oh, I need to listen to it because someone mentioned it and I was like, "My children in my classes would never use AI."Right Living: The Closing BookendKerry: The last one we started with relationships, which I think is super important. We got a lot of academic things. Right living—and that's the last one. But I don't think it's the least. So, tell us a little bit about that and why you put that there.Meredith: Well, I put it last because it's kind of a sandwich of the academics. Relationship and then right living because right living is weaving through everything.And you teach children to be polite, to be obedient, to work hard, not just with their chores, but with their schoolwork. And so it just makes sense.And also there's something about living right even before children give their hearts to Christ. When you live the right way in a way that's moral, you feel better. You don't have like a lot of guilt. You don't have a lot of shame because you've done the right thing. You've worked hard. You've done what you need to do.So, I feel like it's a confidence booster as well to have right living be part of a focus, but it makes teaching easier when you're focused on training children to have manners, to have virtue. It makes it easier to get school done because it's just part of their character to—okay, this is kind of my job. I'm going to do it well.Kerry: That's so good. And I was thinking I didn't mean to steal your thunder by saying what I said, but relationships, right living—that's the most important. And I got the academics in the middle.Meredith: Exactly. Yeah. It's like a sandwich. And so it's a reminder—I think when you start with right living, you can become legalistic, you can become harsh. But if you start with relationships and sandwich it with right living, I think it helps you have a really good balance between the two.The 7 Rs ResourceKerry: That is so good. Hey, I know you've got a really good resource about these seven Rs that could help our homeschoolers. Could you tell people a little bit about that?Meredith: So, this is called The Seven Rs of Homeschooling. And you can tell all my books have a little Florida flair. A lot of them do. But it goes through each of the seven Rs I mentioned—how to teach them, practical resources.It was again birthed out of that season where it was a necessity for me to major on the majors and minor on the minors. And so it's not like oh this is my theory from my Ivy League tower but this is where we had to live. And it really helped me kind of refocus.And it ended up putting writing assignments and speaking, conversational—that's how we ended up putting book clubs in our literature classes and history classes because I found out how important conversation was. We just would have conversations all the way down to my parents' house.So I really recommend The Seven Rs. It's an easy read and it goes through each one and how it's a benefit and how you can in practical ways—it talks about if you have some issues with reading with your kids and how to go step by step.It's written for elementary, middle, and high school. So, you can pick it up when they're still in high school and just sort of give an overview of your children. If you pull your kids out of high school, out of a public school, and you bring them home, one of the things you want to do is you want to kind of evaluate where they're at in these—not with a test, but with just observing what are they able to do, what are they confident in, what do they still need more help. So, this is another good tool for that.Kerry: That is awesome. So, wherever you're listening to this, look below and we will have a link that you can click on and go grab a copy of this excellent resource because I mean this will give you practical tips to be able to implement these seven Rs and evaluate where your kids are.Meredith, thank you so much for being here. I am going to put a little note on there saying I'm sorry for the darkness on parts of the video, but I know we were in the late of the day and the sun's going down and we couldn't get the light to work. But you know what? The content here is excellent. So, thank y'all for just listening as well. And thank you for being here, Meredith. I appreciate it.Meredith: Thank you for having me. I always love being here. Thank you.Kerry: All right. And I'm Kerry Beck with Life Skills Leadership Summit. We'll talk to you next time.Ready to major on the majors in your homeschool?

Los mapas no solo representan la realidad geográfica: también la construyen, reflejan equilibrios de poder y proyectan visiones del mundo que condicionan cómo entendemos nuestro entorno. Desde las primeras representaciones en cuevas prehistóricas hasta los mapas digitales de Google, la cartografía ha evolucionado como una herramienta científica, pero también política e ideológica. En este episodio recorremos la historia de los mapas: cómo los griegos sentaron las bases de la cartografía moderna, cómo la Edad Media los convirtió en expresiones religiosas, cómo la Era de los Descubrimientos los transformó en instrumentos de dominación colonial y cómo el siglo XX los digitalizó bajo hegemonía estadounidense. Hoy en "No es el fin del mundo" hablamos de cómo se han hecho los mapas.

Processus long et exigeant, mais gratifiant.   Un article de brian goetz sur le futur du data oriented programming en Java https://openjdk.org/projects/amber/design-notes/beyond-records Le projet Amber de Java introduit les "carrier classes", une évolution des records qui permet plus de flexibilité tout en gardant les avantages du pattern matching et de la reconstruction Les records imposent des contraintes strictes (immutabilité, représentation exacte de l'état) qui limitent leur usage pour des classes avec état muable ou dérivé Les carrier classes permettent de déclarer une state description complète et canonique sans imposer que la représentation interne corresponde exactement à l'API publique Le modificateur "component" sur les champs permet au compilateur de dériver automatiquement les accesseurs pour les composants alignés avec la state description Les compact constructors sont généralisés aux carrier classes, générant automatiquement l'initialisation des component fields Les carrier classes supportent la déconstruction via pattern matching comme les records, rendant possible leur usage dans les instanceof et switch Les carrier interfaces permettent de définir une state description sur une interface, obligeant les implémentations à fournir les accesseurs correspondants L'extension entre carrier classes est possible, avec dérivation automatique des appels super() quand les composants parent sont subsumés par l'enfant Les records deviennent un cas particulier de carrier classes avec des contraintes supplémentaires (final, extends Record, component fields privés et finaux obligatoires) L'évolution compatible des records est améliorée en permettant l'ajout de composants en fin de liste et la déconstruction partielle par préfixe Comment éviter les pièges courants avec JPA et Kotlin - https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2026/01/how-to-avoid-common-pitfalls-with-jpa-and-kotlin/ JPA est une spécification Java pour la persistance objet-relationnel, mais son utilisation avec Kotlin présente des incompatibilités dues aux différences de conception des deux langages Les classes Kotlin sont finales par défaut, ce qui empêche la création de proxies par JPA pour le lazy loading et les opérations transactionnelles Le plugin kotlin-jpa génère automatiquement des constructeurs sans argument et rend les classes open, résolvant les problèmes de compatibilité Les data classes Kotlin ne sont pas adaptées aux entités JPA car elles génèrent equals/hashCode basés sur tous les champs, causant des problèmes avec les relations lazy L'utilisation de lateinit var pour les relations peut provoquer des exceptions si on accède aux propriétés avant leur initialisation par JPA Les types non-nullables Kotlin peuvent entrer en conflit avec le comportement de JPA qui initialise les entités avec des valeurs null temporaires Le backing field direct dans les getters/setters personnalisés peut contourner la logique de JPA et casser le lazy loading IntelliJ IDEA 2024.3 introduit des inspections pour détecter automatiquement ces problèmes et propose des quick-fixes L'IDE détecte les entités finales, les data classes inappropriées, les problèmes de constructeurs et l'usage incorrect de lateinit Ces nouvelles fonctionnalités aident les développeurs à éviter les bugs subtils liés à l'utilisation de JPA avec Kotlin Librairies Guide sur MapStruct @IterableMapping - https://www.baeldung.com/java-mapstruct-iterablemapping MapStruct est une bibliothèque Java pour générer automatiquement des mappers entre beans, l'annotation @IterableMapping permet de configurer finement le mapping de collections L'attribut dateFormat permet de formater automatiquement des dates lors du mapping de listes sans écrire de boucle manuelle L'attribut qualifiedByName permet de spécifier quelle méthode custom appliquer sur chaque élément de la collection à mapper Exemple d'usage : filtrer des données sensibles comme des mots de passe en mappant uniquement certains champs via une méthode dédiée L'attribut nullValueMappingStrategy permet de contrôler le comportement quand la collection source est null (retourner null ou une collection vide) L'annotation fonctionne pour tous types de collections Java (List, Set, etc.) et génère le code de boucle nécessaire Possibilité d'appliquer des formats numériques avec numberFormat pour convertir des nombres en chaînes avec un format spécifique MapStruct génère l'implémentation complète du mapper au moment de la compilation, éliminant le code boilerplate L'annotation peut être combinée avec @Named pour créer des méthodes de mapping réutilisables et nommées Le mapping des collections supporte les conversions de types complexes au-delà des simples conversions de types primitifs Accès aux fichiers Samba depuis Java avec JCIFS - https://www.baeldung.com/java-samba-jcifs JCIFS est une bibliothèque Java permettant d'accéder aux partages Samba/SMB sans monter de lecteur réseau, supportant le protocole SMB3 on pense aux galériens qui doivent se connecter aux systèmes dit legacy La configuration nécessite un contexte CIFS (CIFSContext) et des objets SmbFile pour représenter les ressources distantes L'authentification se fait via NtlmPasswordAuthenticator avec domaine, nom d'utilisateur et mot de passe La bibliothèque permet de lister les fichiers et dossiers avec listFiles() et vérifier leurs propriétés (taille, date de modification) Création de fichiers avec createNewFile() et de dossiers avec mkdir() ou mkdirs() pour créer toute une arborescence Suppression via delete() qui peut parcourir et supprimer récursivement des arborescences entières Copie de fichiers entre partages Samba avec copyTo(), mais impossibilité de copier depuis le système de fichiers local Pour copier depuis le système local, utilisation des streams SmbFileInputStream et SmbFileOutputStream Les opérations peuvent cibler différents serveurs Samba et différents partages (anonymes ou protégés par mot de passe) La bibliothèque s'intègre dans des blocs try-with-resources pour une gestion automatique des ressources Quarkus 3.31 -

https://www.the-main-thread.com/p/quarkus-java-developers-top-questions-2025 un article qui revele et repond aux questions des gens qui ont utilisé Quarkus depuis 4-6 mois, les non noob questions Quarkus est un framework Java moderne optimisé pour le cloud qui propose des temps de démarrage ultra-rapides et une empreinte mémoire réduite Pourquoi Quarkus démarre si vite ? Le framework effectue le travail lourd au moment du build (scanning, indexation, génération de bytecode) plutôt qu'au runtime Quand utiliser le mode réactif plutôt qu'impératif ? Le réactif est pertinent pour les workloads avec haute concurrence et dominance I/O, l'impératif reste plus simple dans les autres cas Quelle est la différence entre Dev Services et Testcontainers ? Dev Services utilise Testcontainers en gérant automatiquement le cycle de vie, les ports et la configuration sans cérémonie Comment la DI de Quarkus diffère de Spring ? CDI est un standard basé sur la sécurité des types et la découverte au build-time, différent de l'approche framework de Spring Comment gérer la configuration entre environnements ? Quarkus permet de scaler depuis le développement local jusqu'à Kubernetes avec des profils, fichiers multiples et configuration externe Comment tester correctement les applications Quarkus ? @QuarkusTest démarre l'application une fois pour toute la suite de tests, changeant le modèle mental par rapport à Spring Boot Que fait vraiment Panache en coulisses ? Panache est du JPA avec des opinions fortes et des défauts propres, enveloppant Hibernate avec un style Active Record Doit-on utiliser les images natives et quand ? Les images natives brillent pour le serverless et l'edge grâce au démarrage rapide et la faible empreinte mémoire, mais tous les apps n'en bénéficient pas Comment Quarkus s'intègre avec Kubernetes ? Le framework génère automatiquement les ressources Kubernetes, gère les health checks et métriques comme s'il était nativement conçu pour cet écosystème Comment intégrer l'IA dans une application Quarkus ? LangChain4j permet d'ajouter embeddings, retrieval, guardrails et observabilité directement en Java sans passer par Python Infrastructure Les alternatives à MinIO https://rmoff.net/2026/01/14/alternatives-to-minio-for-single-node-local-s3/ MinIO a abandonné le support single-node fin 2025 pour des raisons commerciales, cassant de nombreuses démos et pipelines CI/CD qui l'utilisaient pour émuler S3 localement L'auteur cherche un remplacement simple avec image Docker, compatibilité S3, licence open source, déploiement mono-nœud facile et communauté active S3Proxy est très léger et facile à configurer, semble être l'option la plus simple mais repose sur un seul contributeur RustFS est facile à utiliser et inclut une GUI, mais c'est un projet très récent en version alpha avec une faille de sécurité majeure récente SeaweedFS existe depuis 2012 avec support S3 depuis 2018, relativement facile à configurer et dispose d'une interface web basique Zenko CloudServer remplace facilement MinIO mais la documentation et le branding (cloudserver/zenko/scality) peuvent prêter à confusion Garage nécessite une configuration complexe avec fichier TOML et conteneur d'initialisation séparé, pas un simple remplacement drop-in Apache Ozone requiert au minimum quatre nœuds pour fonctionner, beaucoup trop lourd pour un usage local simple L'auteur recommande SeaweedFS et S3Proxy comme remplaçants viables, RustFS en maybe, et élimine Garage et Ozone pour leur complexité Garage a une histoire tres associative, il vient du collectif https://deuxfleurs.fr/ qui offre un cloud distribué sans datacenter C'est certainement pas une bonne idée, les datacenters dans l'espace https://taranis.ie/datacenters-in-space-are-a-terrible-horrible-no-good-idea/ Avis d'expert (ex-NASA/Google, Dr en électronique spatiale) : Centres de données spatiaux, une "terrible" idée. Incompatibilité fondamentale : L'électronique (surtout IA/GPU) est inadaptée à l'environnement spatial. Énergie : Accès limité. Le solaire (type ISS) est insuffisant pour l'échelle de l'IA. Le nucléaire (RTG) est trop faible. Refroidissement : L'espace n'est pas "froid" ; absence de convection. Nécessite des radiateurs gigantesques (ex: 531m² pour 200kW). Radiations : Provoque erreurs (SEU, SEL) et dommages. Les GPU sont très vulnérables. Blindage lourd et inefficace. Les puces "durcies" sont très lentes. Communications : Bande passante très limitée (1Gbps radio vs 100Gbps terrestre). Le laser est tributaire des conditions atmosphériques. Conclusion : Projet extrêmement difficile, coûteux et aux performances médiocres. Data et Intelligence Artificielle Guillaume a développé un serveur MCP pour arXiv (le site de publication de papiers de recherche) en Java avec le framework Quarkus https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/01/18/implementing-an-arxiv-mcp-server-with-quarkus-in-java/ Implémentation d'un serveur MCP (Model Context Protocol) arXiv en Java avec Quarkus. Objectif : Accéder aux publications arXiv et illustrer les fonctionnalités moins connues du protocole MCP. Mise en œuvre : Utilisation du framework Quarkus (Java) et son support MCP étendu. Assistance par Antigravity (IDE agentique) pour le développement et l'intégration de l'API arXiv. Interaction avec l'API arXiv : requêtes HTTP, format XML Atom pour les résultats, parser XML Jackson. Fonctionnalités MCP exposées : Outils (@Tool) : Recherche de publications (search_papers). Ressources (@Resource, @ResourceTemplate) : Taxonomie des catégories arXiv, métadonnées des articles (via un template d'URI). Prompts (@Prompt) : Exemples pour résumer des articles ou construire des requêtes de recherche. Configuration : Le serveur peut fonctionner en STDIO (local) ou via HTTP Streamable (local ou distant), avec une configuration simple dans des clients comme Gemini CLI. Conclusion : Quarkus simplifie la création de serveurs MCP riches en fonctionnalités, rendant les données et services "prêts pour l'IA" avec l'aide d'outils d'IA comme Antigravity. Anthropic ne mettra pas de pub dans Claude https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-is-a-space-to-think c'est en reaction au plan non public d'OpenAi de mettre de la pub pour pousser les gens au mode payant OpenAI a besoin de cash et est probablement le plus utilisé pour gratuit au monde Anthropic annonce que Claude restera sans publicité pour préserver son rôle d'assistant conversationnel dédié au travail et à la réflexion approfondie. Les conversations avec Claude sont souvent sensibles, personnelles ou impliquent des tâches complexes d'ingénierie logicielle où les publicités seraient inappropriées. L'analyse des conversations montre qu'une part significative aborde des sujets délicats similaires à ceux évoqués avec un conseiller de confiance. Un modèle publicitaire créerait des incitations contradictoires avec le principe fondamental d'être "genuinely helpful" inscrit dans la Constitution de Claude. Les publicités introduiraient un conflit d'intérêt potentiel où les recommandations pourraient être influencées par des motivations commerciales plutôt que par l'intérêt de l'utilisateur. Le modèle économique d'Anthropic repose sur les contrats entreprise et les abonnements payants, permettant de réinvestir dans l'amélioration de Claude. Anthropic maintient l'accès gratuit avec des modèles de pointe et propose des tarifs réduits pour les ONG et l'éducation dans plus de 60 pays. Le commerce "agentique" sera supporté mais uniquement à l'initiative de l'utilisateur, jamais des annonceurs, pour préserver la confiance. Les intégrations tierces comme Figma, Asana ou Canva continueront d'être développées en gardant l'utilisateur aux commandes. Anthropic compare Claude à un cahier ou un tableau blanc : des espaces de pensée purs, sans publicité. Infinispan 16.1 est sorti https://infinispan.org/blog/2026/02/04/infinispan-16-1 déjà le nom de la release mérite une mention Le memory bounded par cache et par ensemble de cache s est pas facile à faire en Java Une nouvelle api OpenAPI AOT caché dans les images container Un serveur MCP local juste avec un fichier Java ? C'est possible avec LangChain4j et JBang https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/11/zero-boilerplate-java-stdio-mcp-servers-with-langchain4j-and-jbang/ Création rapide de serveurs MCP Java sans boilerplate. MCP (Model Context Protocol): standard pour connecter les LLM à des outils et données. Le tutoriel répond au manque d'options simples pour les développeurs Java, face à une prédominance de Python/TypeScript dans l'écosystème MCP. La solution utilise: LangChain4j: qui intègre un nouveau module serveur MCP pour le protocole STDIO. JBang: permet d'exécuter des fichiers Java comme des scripts, éliminant les fichiers de build (pom.xml, Gradle). Implémentation: se fait via un seul fichier .java. JBang gère automatiquement les dépendances (//DEPS). L'annotation @Tool de LangChain4j expose les méthodes Java aux LLM. StdioMcpServerTransport gère la communication JSON-RPC via l'entrée/sortie standard (STDIO). Point crucial: Les logs doivent impérativement être redirigés vers System.err pour éviter de corrompre System.out, qui est réservé à la communication MCP (messages JSON-RPC). Facilite l'intégration locale avec des outils comme Gemini CLI, Claude Code, etc. Reciprocal Rank Fusion : un algorithme utile et souvent utilisé pour faire de la recherche hybride, pour mélanger du RAG et des recherches par mots-clé https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/10/advanced-rag-understanding-reciprocal-rank-fusion-in-hybrid-search/ RAG : Qualité LLM dépend de la récupération. Recherche Hybride : Combiner vectoriel et mots-clés (BM25) est optimal. Défi : Fusionner des scores d'échelles différentes. Solution : Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF). RRF : Algorithme robuste qui fusionne des listes de résultats en se basant uniquement sur le rang des documents, ignorant les scores. Avantages RRF : Pas de normalisation de scores, scalable, excellente première étape de réorganisation. Architecture RAG fréquente : RRF (large sélection) + Cross-Encoder / modèle de reranking (précision fine). RAG-Fusion : Utilise un LLM pour générer plusieurs variantes de requête, puis RRF agrège tous les résultats pour renforcer le consensus et réduire les hallucinations. Implémentation : LangChain4j utilise RRF par défaut pour agréger les résultats de plusieurs retrievers. Les dernières fonctionnalités de Gemini et Nano Banana supportées dans LangChain4j https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/06/latest-gemini-and-nano-banana-enhancements-in-langchain4j/ Nouveaux modèles d'images Nano Banana (Gemini 2.5/3.0) pour génération et édition (jusqu'à 4K). "Grounding" via Google Search (pour images et texte) et Google Maps (localisation, Gemini 2.5). Outil de contexte URL (Gemini 3.0) pour lecture directe de pages web. Agents multimodaux (AiServices) capables de générer des images. Configuration de la réflexion (profondeur Chain-of-Thought) pour Gemini 3.0. Métadonnées enrichies : usage des tokens et détails des sources de "grounding". Comment configurer Gemini CLI comment agent de code dans IntelliJ grâce au protocole ACP https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/01/how-to-integrate-gemini-cli-with-intellij-idea-using-acp/ But : Intégrer Gemini CLI à IntelliJ IDEA via l'Agent Client Protocol (ACP). Prérequis : IntelliJ IDEA 2025.3+, Node.js (v20+), Gemini CLI. Étapes : Installer Gemini CLI (npm install -g @google/gemini-cli). Localiser l'exécutable gemini. Configurer ~/.jetbrains/acp.json (chemin exécutable, --experimental-acp, use_idea_mcp: true). Redémarrer IDEA, sélectionner "Gemini CLI" dans l'Assistant IA. Usage : Gemini interagit avec le code et exécute des commandes (contexte projet). Important : S'assurer du flag --experimental-acp dans la configuration. Outillage PipeNet, une alternative (open source aussi) à LocalTunnel, mais un plus évoluée https://pipenet.dev/ pipenet: Alternative open-source et moderne à localtunnel (client + serveur). Usages: Développement local (partage, webhooks), intégration SDK, auto-hébergement sécurisé. Fonctionnalités: Client (expose ports locaux, sous-domaines), Serveur (déploiement, domaines personnalisés, optimisé cloud mono-port). Avantages vs localtunnel: Déploiement cloud sur un seul port, support multi-domaines, TypeScript/ESM, maintenance active. Protocoles: HTTP/S, WebSocket, SSE, HTTP Streaming. Intégration: CLI ou SDK JavaScript. JSON-IO — une librairie comme Jackson ou GSON, supportant JSON5, TOON, et qui pourrait être utile pour l'utilisation du "structured output" des LLMs quand ils ne produisent pas du JSON parfait https://github.com/jdereg/json-io json-io : Librairie Java pour la sérialisation et désérialisation JSON/TOON. Gère les graphes d'objets complexes, les références cycliques et les types polymorphes. Support complet JSON5 (lecture et écriture), y compris des fonctionnalités non prises en charge par Jackson/Gson. Format TOON : Notation orientée token, optimisée pour les LLM, réduisant l'utilisation de tokens de 40 à 50% par rapport au JSON. Légère : Aucune dépendance externe (sauf java-util), taille de JAR réduite (~330K). Compatible JDK 1.8 à 24, ainsi qu'avec les environnements JPMS et OSGi. Deux modes de conversion : vers des objets Java typés (toJava()) ou vers des Map (toMaps()). Options de configuration étendues via ReadOptionsBuilder et WriteOptionsBuilder. Optimisée pour les déploiements cloud natifs et les architectures de microservices. Utiliser mailpit et testcontainer pour tester vos envois d'emails https://foojay.io/today/testing-emails-with-testcontainers-and-mailpit/ l'article montre via SpringBoot et sans. Et voici l'extension Quarkus https://quarkus.io/extensions/io.quarkiverse.mailpit/quarkus-mailpit/?tab=docs Tester l'envoi d'emails en développement est complexe car on ne peut pas utiliser de vrais serveurs SMTP Mailpit est un serveur SMTP de test qui capture les emails et propose une interface web pour les consulter Testcontainers permet de démarrer Mailpit dans un conteneur Docker pour les tests d'intégration L'article montre comment configurer une application SpringBoot pour envoyer des emails via JavaMail Un module Testcontainers dédié à Mailpit facilite son intégration dans les tests Le conteneur Mailpit expose un port SMTP (1025) et une API HTTP (8025) pour vérifier les emails reçus Les tests peuvent interroger l'API HTTP de Mailpit pour valider le contenu des emails envoyés Cette approche évite d'utiliser des mocks et teste réellement l'envoi d'emails Mailpit peut aussi servir en développement local pour visualiser les emails sans les envoyer réellement La solution fonctionne avec n'importe quel framework Java supportant JavaMail Architecture Comment scaler un système de 0 à 10 millions d'utilisateurs https://blog.algomaster.io/p/scaling-a-system-from-0-to-10-million-users Philosophie : Scalabilité incrémentale, résoudre les goulots d'étranglement sans sur-ingénierie. 0-100 utilisateurs : Serveur unique (app, DB, jobs). 100-1K : Séparer app et DB (services gérés, pooling). 1K-10K : Équilibreur de charge, multi-serveurs d'app (stateless via sessions partagées). 10K-100K : Caching, réplicas de lecture DB, CDN (réduire charge DB). 100K-500K : Auto-scaling, applications stateless (authentification JWT). 500K-10M : Sharding DB, microservices, files de messages (traitement asynchrone). 10M+ : Déploiement multi-régions, CQRS, persistance polyglotte, infra personnalisée. Principes clés : Simplicité, mesure, stateless essentiel, cache/asynchrone, sharding prudent, compromis (CAP), coût de la complexité. Patterns d'Architecture 2026 - Du Hype à la Réalité du Terrain (Part 1/2) - https://blog.ippon.fr/2026/01/30/patterns-darchitecture-2026-part-1/ L'article présente quatre patterns d'architecture logicielle pour répondre aux enjeux de scalabilité, résilience et agilité business dans les systèmes modernes Il présentent leurs raisons et leurs pièges Un bon rappel L'Event-Driven Architecture permet une communication asynchrone entre systèmes via des événements publiés et consommés, évitant le couplage direct Les bénéfices de l'EDA incluent la scalabilité indépendante des composants, la résilience face aux pannes et l'ajout facile de nouveaux cas d'usage Le pattern API-First associé à un API Gateway centralise la sécurité, le routage et l'observabilité des APIs avec un catalogue unifié Le Backend for Frontend crée des APIs spécifiques par canal (mobile, web, partenaires) pour optimiser l'expérience utilisateur CQRS sépare les modèles de lecture et d'écriture avec des bases optimisées distinctes, tandis que l'Event Sourcing stocke tous les événements plutôt que l'état actuel Le Saga Pattern gère les transactions distribuées via orchestration centralisée ou chorégraphie événementielle pour coordonner plusieurs microservices Les pièges courants incluent l'explosion d'événements granulaires, la complexité du debugging distribué, et la mauvaise gestion de la cohérence finale Les technologies phares sont Kafka pour l'event streaming, Kong pour l'API Gateway, EventStoreDB pour l'Event Sourcing et Temporal pour les Sagas Ces patterns nécessitent une maturité technique et ne sont pas adaptés aux applications CRUD simples ou aux équipes junior Patterns d'architecture 2026 : du hype à la réalité terrain part. 2 - https://blog.ippon.fr/2026/02/04/patterns-darchitecture-2026-part-2/ Deuxième partie d'un guide pratique sur les patterns d'architecture logicielle et système éprouvés pour moderniser et structurer les applications en 2026 Strangler Fig permet de migrer progressivement un système legacy en l'enveloppant petit à petit plutôt que de tout réécrire d'un coup (70% d'échec pour les big bang) Anti-Corruption Layer protège votre nouveau domaine métier des modèles externes et legacy en créant une couche de traduction entre les systèmes Service Mesh gère automatiquement la communication inter-services dans les architectures microservices (sécurité mTLS, observabilité, résilience) Architecture Hexagonale sépare le coeur métier des détails techniques via des ports et adaptateurs pour améliorer la testabilité et l'évolutivité Chaque pattern est illustré par un cas client concret avec résultats mesurables et liste des pièges à éviter lors de l'implémentation Les technologies 2026 mentionnées incluent Istio, Linkerd pour service mesh, LaunchDarkly pour feature flags, NGINX et Kong pour API gateway Tableau comparatif final aide à choisir le bon pattern selon la complexité, le scope et le use case spécifique du projet L'article insiste sur une approche pragmatique : ne pas utiliser un pattern juste parce qu'il est moderne mais parce qu'il résout un problème réel Pour les systèmes simples type CRUD ou avec peu de services, ces patterns peuvent introduire une complexité inutile qu'il faut savoir éviter Méthodologies Le rêve récurrent de remplacer voire supprimer les développeurs https://www.caimito.net/en/blog/2025/12/07/the-recurring-dream-of-replacing-developers.html Depuis 1969, chaque décennie voit une tentative de réduire le besoin de développeurs (de COBOL, UML, visual builders… à IA). Motivation : frustration des dirigeants face aux délais et coûts de développement. La complexité logicielle est intrinsèque et intellectuelle, non pas une question d'outils. Chaque vague technologique apporte de la valeur mais ne supprime pas l'expertise humaine. L'IA assiste les développeurs, améliore l'efficacité, mais ne remplace ni le jugement ni la gestion de la complexité. La demande de logiciels excède l'offre car la contrainte majeure est la réflexion nécessaire pour gérer cette complexité. Pour les dirigeants : les outils rendent-ils nos développeurs plus efficaces sur les problèmes complexes et réduisent-ils les tâches répétitives ? Le "rêve" de remplacer les développeurs, irréalisable, est un moteur d'innovation créant des outils précieux. Comment creuser des sujets à l'ère de l'IA générative. Quid du partage et la curation de ces recherches ? https://glaforge.dev/posts/2026/02/04/researching-topics-in-the-age-of-ai-rock-solid-webhooks-case-study/ Recherche initiale de l'auteur sur les webhooks en 2019, processus long et manuel. L'IA (Deep Research, Gemini, NotebookLM) facilite désormais la recherche approfondie, l'exploration de sujets et le partage des résultats. L'IA a identifié et validé des pratiques clés pour des déploiements de webhooks résilients, en grande partie les mêmes que celles trouvées précédemment par l'auteur. Génération d'artefacts par l'IA : rapport détaillé, résumé concis, illustration sketchnote, et même une présentation (slide deck). Guillaume s'interroge sur le partage public de ces rapports de recherche générés par l'IA, tout en souhaitant éviter le "AI Slop". Loi, société et organisation Le logiciel menacé par le vibe coding https://www.techbuzz.ai/articles/we-built-a-monday-com-clone-in-under-an-hour-with-ai Deux journalistes de CNBC sans expérience de code ont créé un clone fonctionnel de Monday.com en moins de 60 minutes pour 5 à 15 dollars. L'expérience valide les craintes des investisseurs qui ont provoqué une baisse de 30% des actions des entreprises SaaS. L'IA a non seulement reproduit les fonctionnalités de base mais a aussi recherché Monday.com de manière autonome pour identifier et recréer ses fonctionnalités clés. Cette technique appelée "vibe-coding" permet aux non-développeurs de construire des applications via des instructions en anglais courant. Les entreprises les plus vulnérables sont celles offrant des outils "qui se posent sur le travail" comme Atlassian, Adobe, HubSpot, Zendesk et Smartsheet. Les entreprises de cybersécurité comme CrowdStrike et Palo Alto sont considérées plus protégées grâce aux effets de réseau et aux barrières réglementaires. Les systèmes d'enregistrement comme Salesforce restent plus difficiles à répliquer en raison de leur profondeur d'intégration et de données d'entreprise. Le coût de 5 à 15 dollars par construction permet aux entreprises de prototyper plusieurs solutions personnalisées pour moins cher qu'une seule licence Monday.com. L'expérience soulève des questions sur la pérennité du marché de 5 milliards de dollars des outils de gestion de projet face à l'IA générative.

This week Chris and Jamal talk about the latest Wayfarer news, including issues with map sync delays that are causing approved Wayspots, edits, and removals to take hours (or even more than a day) to appear in games. Niantic is currently running manual syncs while investigating the problem, and the hosts also highlight a community comment suggesting that player-submitted Wayspots should replace some of the newly generated street PokéStops. The bulk of the episode focuses on a deep dive into the newly released Wayfarer Map. Chris and Jamal review what the first version can currently do, then walk through a long list of known issues pulled from forum discussions — such as delayed live data, broken location searches, visual problems with Google Maps layers, missing Street View, translation gaps, and the inability to filter certain Wayspot types. They also discuss features they hope appear in future updates, including improved zoom controls, filters for personal contributions, the ability to edit locations directly from the map, plugin support, and results from Jamal's recent experiment using the tool. Finally, the hosts evaluate Niantic's 2025–2026 Wayfarer roadmap and measure progress so far. They run through each promised improvement — from appeals and distance changes to quality surfacing, leaderboards, and rating systems — noting that only the Wayfarer Map and web submissions have fully launched so far. Chris argues that despite many items still pending, these two features are major wins and, when broken down mathematically, put the team roughly on pace if development continues steadily through 2026.

Part 2 of the 2026 essential checklist shows first time homebuyers how to research neighborhoods, tour homes strategically, and protect themselves while shopping in today's weird housing market. This episode jumps from planning into the “fun stuff”: a practical checklist for researching neighborhoods and shopping for homes like a pro instead of a scrolling-Zillow zombie. You'll learn how to use tools like Google Maps, Street View, WalkScore, crime maps, school ratings, zoning plans, and even old-school paper maps to understand a community before you ever step inside a house. David then walks through smart touring strategy—bundling showings, ranking your top three, watching for surveillance cameras, checking commute times and internet service, and touring midweek to beat the weekend crowds. Finally, he explains how to avoid traps with open houses and new construction, why list prices are “garbage,” how to spot opportunity in “back on market” and badly photographed listings, and why your realtor's most valuable job is negotiating and protecting you once you've found a home.“I'm going to give you the checklist for home shopping.” - David Sidoni Highlights How can you use online tools and maps to spot the right neighborhoods before you ever book a showing? What should you look for when driving neighborhoods at different times of day to really understand daily life there?

We're introducing a new segment called 'On The Trail' aimed at providing short, meaty, and to-the-point tips for online marketing!!In this episode, we're diving into a question I'm hearing from a lot of therapists lately: Is it just me, or has my website traffic and inquiries dropped off a cliff? I'll walk you through what's happening behind the scenes in SEO and online marketing, and what you can do about it.Therapists are seeing fewer website visitors, fewer calls, and wondering if something's broken. It can feel isolating, like maybe your practice is doing something wrong. But you're not alone — this is a trend we're seeing industry-wide.You might think the solution is just to post more on Instagram or start a blog. While those can help, they won't fix the core issue. The truth is, search engine behavior and how people find therapists online is changing... fast.Key Highlights:1. What's Changed in SEO Over the Last YearGoogle's algorithm updates have prioritized helpful, original, and authoritative content.AI-generated content has flooded the web, so Google's gotten stricter on quality signals.Local SEO results are more competitive — especially in saturated markets.2. How AI is Changing the GameMore people are using ChatGPT or AI tools to ask questions instead of searching Google.Google's AI snapshots (Search Generative Experience) are pulling answers right into results pages — meaning fewer clicks to websites.3. It's Not Just You — It's a Landscape ShiftEven well-optimized therapy websites are seeing fluctuations.Less organic traffic doesn't always mean fewer clients — but it does mean we need to be more strategic.So what can you do about it?...✅ 1. Get an SEO Assessment of Your WebsiteBefore you start making changes, it's essential to understand why traffic has dropped. An SEO assessment can reveal:Technical issues (like slow load times, broken links, poor mobile experience)On-page optimization gaps (are your keywords still relevant?)Local SEO visibility (are you showing up in Google Maps for your city?)This gives you a clear baseline and prioritizes what to fix — instead of guessing. (This is exactly what we do with our SEO assessments at Private Practice Elevation.)✍️ 2. Update or Create One Piece of High-Intent ContentChoose one key service (like EMDR therapy or couples counseling) and ask:Does your website have a page that clearly explains what this is, who it helps, and how someone can get started?Is that page optimized for local search terms (e.g. "EMDR therapy in Denver")?Focus on creating or refreshing one solid, helpful page — rather than trying to write 10 blog posts.

//The Wire//2300Z February 6, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: IRANIAN FORCES HIJACK TWO VESSELS IN STRAIT OF HORMUZ. GRENADE ATTACK REPORTED IN FRANCE. RUSSIAN GENERAL TARGET OF ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT IN MOSCOW. DETAILS EMERGE REGARDING TERROR ATTACK IN GURNEE, ILLINOIS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Middle East: Yesterday Iranian forces seized two tanker vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. These vessels have not officially been named yet, however the footage provided by the IRGC-N indicates these were smaller, more-regional tankers carrying fuel to other locations around the region. Otherwise, on the diplomatic front, the talks between Iranian and American officials concluded today without much note, other than mainstream media sources claiming that the Iranians have refused to halt the enrichment of Uranium.Analyst Comment: The Iranians say this quite literally every time, and today was only the first day of negotiations. The positive news is that neither side flipped the table and walked away; all parties have further talks planned after today's meetings in Oman.Russia: Overnight, a high-ranking General was the victim of an attempted assassination in Moscow. The Kremlin states that Vladimir Alekseyev was shot several times by an unidentified assailant, at his apartment near a pizza restaurant in northwest Moscow. LTG Alekseyev is serving as the deputy chief of Military Intelligence for the Kremlin.France: This morning an attack involving explosives was carried out in Grenoble, after two assailants threw a hand grenade into a beauty salon near the downtown area. The suspects recorded a video of the attack, and provided a video confession as well, which linked the attack to Fenec38, an Algerian gang/criminal group.Analyst Comment: Details on this exact criminal group are hard to come by, at least in English-speaking publications, so it's possible that this is a smaller group trying to improve their standing in the web of criminal groups that now completely dominate the city of Grenoble.This attack also bears striking resemblance to another attack, carried out in the same manner, on a similar target, in the same city, using the same weapon. Back in February of last year, a hand grenade was tossed into a bar/lounge in Grenoble, near the old Olympic village. Concerning today's target (the beauty salon), it's not entirely clear as to why this target was chosen. However, as per the Google Maps listing for the site, some sort of home health company is also registered at this address.While no direct causal link can be established between the two incidents beyond the similarities already observed, it must be noted that these individuals are ruthless killers. In both cases, soft targets were chosen to inflict as much violence on innocent people as possible, with the attacker today throwing the hand grenade quite literally at the feet of a child in the salon. It is only by sheer miracle that the six people inside the salon only suffered minor wounds, and were not immediately killed outright. Instead, the shrapnel from the grenade missed every person in the salon, and none of the victims even required hospitalization, at least according to local media reports. Nevertheless, the attackers attempted to carry out the mass murder of innocent people, continuing what has become a trend throughout France, as ordinary street gangs and organized crime groups alike continue to wage war on the nation.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In Illinois, more details have come to light regarding a vehicle ramming attack and stabbing incident that took place in Gurnee on Monday. At the time, local media initially reported that the incident was an accident involving two people struck by a car in the parking lot of Gurnee Mills Mall. However, after the details of the arrest that was made became public, t

In Episode 492: Underground Base and Hadron Collider of Illinois, we are joined by the boys from Cryptids Of The Corn, Justin and Jay. They were originally in town to visit me in the studio with Joel from Kill The Mockingbirds and Erick from uNcomfortable podcasts for the recording of our Nephilim Portal Babies episode. Justin and Jay were the only ones of the bunch who had never been featured on The Confessionals so we wanted to give them the spotlight for a couple of hours!Justin begins talking about a man he worked with who had discovered a secret underground facility deep under the O'Hare International Airport in Chicago. We discuss the possibilities of what this facility could be and why it is located in Chicago. Later Justin shares his experience discovering a hadron collider in Illinois as a wildlife biologist. What started out as a routine day of testing for “nerd stuff” in a local creek ended with armed men surrounding him and his team as they entered a location that doesn't exist on Google Maps, but houses a secret hadron collider. We wrap up the conversation by discussing Justin's family property and how they were tormented by bigfoot for nearly two years.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Google is phasing out the classic Q&A section on Google Business Profiles and replacing it with AI-powered "Ask" features in Google Maps, driven by Gemini. For clinic owners, chiropractors, physical therapists, acupuncturists, med spas, and other healthcare providers, this shift means patients now get instant AI-generated answers about your services, insurance, hours, accessibility, and more - pulled from your profile, reviews, website, photos, and beyond.⚡Episode guide, blog & podcast notes:  https://propelyourcompany.com/google-ai-answers/If your info isn't clear and consistent, the AI might say "I don't have enough information" or get it wrong - costing you leads to competitors.In this episode of the Clinic Marketing Podcast, Darcy Sullivan from Propel Marketing and Design breaks down:Why the old Q&A vanished and where the new AI "Ask about this place" button is appearing (especially in Google Maps).Why healthcare categories (like many medical clinics) are rolling out unevenly - but the change is coming.Real patient questions clinics face: "Do you take my insurance?", "Same-day appointments?", "Do you treat kids/sciatica/migraines?", "Parking available?", "Wheelchair accessible?"A clinic-specific AI-feeding checklist: GBP basics, categories/services/attributes, strategic photos/videos, review prompts for detailed language, website FAQs, social posts, and more.7-day action plan to audit and optimize your Google Business Profile + website this week.How to monitor AI answers and avoid misinformation risks.Even if the feature hasn't hit your listing yet, building an "AI-ready" info ecosystem is one of the top local SEO moves for clinics right now - boosting visibility in Maps and search.Tune in for practical steps to make sure Google's AI answers questions the right way... your way.Send in your questions. ❤ We'd love to hear from you!NEW Webinar: How to dominate Google Search, Google Maps, AI-driven search results, and get more new patients.>> Save your spot

“Friction-maxxing,” a term coined by The Cut columnist Kathryn Jezer-Morton, is the art of adding more inconvenience to our lives —as technology pushes us to eliminate it. That might look like taking the bus to the grocery store instead of DoorDashing meals. Or asking a stranger for directions rather than checking Google Maps. It means putting ourselves in contact with the world, with all of the vulnerability and unpredictability that entails. We'll talk with Jezer-Morton and tech journalists about how doing things the hard way can bring us more joy, serendipity and human connection. How do you friction-maxx?

Getting more Google reviews does not require awkward scripts, expensive software, or nonstop reminders. In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry Kennedy breaks down a simple, repeatable system chiropractors can use to get more reviews consistently without disrupting patient care. Most chiropractors know reviews matter, but many struggle with inconsistency. They ask for reviews for a few weeks, stop, then start again months later. Others rely entirely on automation and wonder why it does not work as well as promised. This episode explains why both approaches fall short and what actually works long term. Jerry walks through a practical review strategy designed specifically for busy chiropractors who want steady growth, stronger Google Maps visibility, and better patient trust. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why most chiropractors struggle to get reviews consistently • The biggest mistakes chiropractors make when asking for reviews • How to make reviews feel normal inside your practice • When to introduce the idea of reviews to new patients • The best time to ask for a review so it has real marketing value • Why asking in person still outperforms texts and automation • How to use simple tools like QR codes and review cards • How to build a review schedule that runs on autopilot • Whether reputation management software is actually worth it Key Takeaway for Chiropractors The best way for chiropractors to get more reviews is not by chasing patients or automating everything. It is by creating a simple system that fits naturally into your practice culture. When reviews become part of the patient experience instead of a marketing task, they start compounding over time and helping your practice stand out locally. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for: • New chiropractors building their online presence • Chiropractors with low or inconsistent review counts • Solo and small-practice chiropractors • Chiropractors focused on Google Maps and local SEO • Chiropractors who want steady growth without hype Resources Mentioned • Rocket Chiro chiropractic websites and local SEO: https://rocketchiro.com/best-chiropractic-websites/ • Website and SEO review requests at RocketChiro.com: https://rocketchiro.com/contact/chiropractic-practice-assessment/ • NEXT Step chiropractic business coaching: https://rocketchiro.com/chiropractic-coaching/ Listen, Subscribe, and Share If you found this episode helpful, subscribe to the Rocket Chiro Podcast and share it with another chiropractor who wants a better way to get reviews without feeling salesy.

In this article, we're gonna break down the simplest questions to answer before you decide which part of the city to stay in.Because the most important factor when choosing where to stay in NYC isn't just price.Here's what we'll cover:Before you look at locations, answer thisThe #1 factor for a good stay, no matter the neighborhoodA note about Airbnb and short-term, non-hotel rentalsOur 3 recommendations for the best places stay in New York CityTips for finding the best hotel rates (and comparing reviews)Note: See the full article with specific hotel recommendations here: https://rebrand.ly/where-stay-nycWhat Do You Care More About, Saving Money or Proximity to the NYC Experience?When you're trying to figure out where to stay when visiting NYC, you must ask yourself a this-or-that question. Odds are you can't have both, so you'll have to decide.The Question: What do you care more about, saving money or proximity to the NYC experience?You often, or almost never, can have both. New York City is expensive, and when you prioritize affordability, you will often trade that for distance from common NYC experiences. The same goes for the inverse.Is Saving Money the Most Important to You?You will spend very little time in your hotel during your visit to New York City. This is probably the strongest argument for prioritizing a cheaper hotel, even if it means a longer commute.So, if the cheapest lodging is your highest priority, look at places like:Hoboken, New JerseyLong Island City in QueensCertain pockets of boroughs, like Queens or BrooklynEven with that being said, I would never, ever, ever stay in the far reaches of Jersey, or distant parts in Queens or Brooklyn as a traveler. Nothing against those areas, it's just not where you're going to likely want to spend your time while visiting!New York City is a destination, and there is something to be said about staying in your destination, not near it.Is Proximity to the NYC Experience the Most Important to You?You will walk a LOT in New York City, part of why comfortable walking shoes are the #1 priority on our NYC packing list, and you will likely finish each day exhausted. Do you want to be dealing with a lengthy, challenging commute at the end of a long, tiring day?Being close to the action is not only fun, but it's practical. This is especially true for a short, weekend trip to NYC.So, if being close to the NYC experiences is your highest priority, look at places like:Upper MidtownChelseaFinancial DistrictWant even more NYC insights? Sign up for our 100% free newsletter to access:Dozens of Google Maps lists arranged by cuisine and location50+ page NYC Navigation Guide covering getting to & from airports, taking the subway & moreWeekly insights on top spots, upcoming events, and must-know NYC tipsGet started here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://rebrand.ly/nyc-navigation-guide

If you don't use it, you lose it. Does the same apply to AI and our brains? Today, we're talking to Jacob Ward, journalist, AI ethics and safety advisor, and author of The Loop. We discuss why AI will dissolve our brains just like Google Maps dissolved our sense of direction, how our unconscious decision-making makes us vulnerable to AI manipulation, and why kids saying "clankers" might be our best hope for the future. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast!  To learn more about Jacob's work, check out his website h

Sean Payton drops a line that sounds like a sneaky guarantee, and the guys argue if it counts. A new poll update pours gasoline on the Jets vs Giants embarrassment debate. Fernando Mendoza's interview sparks a surprisingly heated Apple Maps vs Google Maps argument. Plus, Giants fans get a letter from John Harbaugh, and the staff overhaul begins with early reports on who's staying and who's gone.

Show Summary: In this GMAP episode, Brandon Hall joins the conversation to break down what actually holds accounting firms back from meaningful scale—and why technology alone isn't the answer. Drawing from his experience as a CPA, firm founder, and real estate investor, Brandon explains why most firms don't have an operations problem—they have a sales and leadership problem. He challenges the idea that sales should be "balanced" with operations, arguing instead that healthy firms intentionally let sales outpace operations to force growth, systems, and accountability. The discussion dives into why firms stuck at the $1M mark struggle to reach $10M, highlighting the real blockers: weak accountability, the absence of a true leadership team, and outdated governance models that reward mediocrity over ownership. Brandon also addresses the role of AI, making it clear that while technology can enhance efficiency, it won't replace accountants who lead, think critically, and guide clients strategically. This episode is a must-listen for firm owners who want to scale with intention, build strong leadership structures, and move beyond survival-mode growth into long-term, sustainable success.   Website:www.therealestatecpa.com LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonhallcpa/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/realestatecpa Twitter: @TheRECPA   Corporate Partner:Kick - https://www.kick.co/ Profit First App Version 2.0 is here!  More Education.
