What do shoppers actually want in 2026? Do brand vibe, culture, and ethos matter more than the clothes? Is experience-based fashion just better marketing? And what does “integrated fashion” look like when your wardrobe is built around music, sports, clubs, video games, vintage, coffee shops, and the internet?On this episode of Pair of Kings, Sol Thompson and Michael Smith break down the largest survey they've run on fashion preferences, shopping habits, and taste: 1,500+ responses on how people look for, select and justify clothing today. The duo use the season's thesis of “integrated fashion” to interrogate why brand culture matters, how shoppers decide between buying piece-by-piece vs building a full aesthetic, why brand storytelling still works, and what makes a fashion brand captivating enough to hold an audience.We get into Rick Owens, Kozaburo, Rolling Dub Trio, Lost Control cowboy boots, Undercover, Comme des Garçons, Celine, Hedi Slimane, CC41 wartime tailoring, vintage band tees, Bruce Springsteen shirts, KMFDM, Electronic Research Department / ERD, Daft Punk, and controversy-driven fashion marketing.Sol and Michael also discuss Everlane's sale to Shein, sustainability fatigue, ethical fashion, cost per wear, quality vs longevity, resale liquidity, wardrobe economics, consumer inequality, and why the modern fashion industry is selling lifestyles as much as clothing. Further, they ask what sparks the desire to buy: Honey Dijon at Coachella, Saturday Night Fever, The Batman motorcycle jackets, FKA twigs, Interplanetary Criminal, video games, old magazines, X-Files tees, Julian Carter, and archive fashion grails.Other topics include: NYC summer style, Havaianas and flip-flop discourse, Birkenstocks without socks, finance guys in Lululemon khakis and On Running shoes, Kangol hats, men's matching sets, white jeans, World Cup style, vintage soccer jerseys, Newcastle kits, Nike Total 90s, Puma Speedcats, Big Red Boots, brand pop-ups, shock drops, fashion coffee shops, Instagram style discovery, raves, punk shows, clubs, flea markets, Harajuku, Santee Alley, gay clubs, furries, online fashion communities, The Devil Wears Prada 2, whether good marketing can compensate for bad clothes. We hope you enjoy just as much as we did recording.Lots of love!Sol---Episode Tags: fashion podcast 2026, integrated fashion, fashion survey, menswear, streetwear, high fashion, archive fashion, shopping habits, brand culture, experience-based fashion, Rick Owens, Kozaburo, Everlane Shein, sustainable fashion, vintage fashion, World Cup jerseys, Nike Total 90, Puma Speedcat, Celine #fashion #fashionpodcast #rickowens #archivefashion TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 — Intro: 1,300+ Person Integrated Fashion Survey 1:09 — Sol & Michael Introduce the Episode 1:53 — New York Summer Fashion and the Style Reset 2:23 — Fit Check: Birkenstocks, Kapital Denim & Vintage Bruce Springsteen Tee 6:37 — KMFDM Shirt, Vintage T-Shirt Care & Washing Old Tees 7:14 — ERD Daft Punk Shirt, Vintage Resale & Controversial Fashion Marketing 11:42 — NYC Summer Style: Flip-Flops, Havaianas & Birkenstocks 16:27 — Finance Guy Fits: On Running, Lululemon Khakis & No-Show Socks 18:07 — Kangol Hats, Lower East Side Trends & One-Weekend Menswear Fads 20:22 — Matching Sets and Summer 2026 Menswear Predictions 21:16 — White Jeans, Vintage Soccer Jerseys & World Cup Style 25:05 — Everlane, Shein and the Future of Ethical Fashion 26:29 — Sustainability Fatigue and Rick Owens Sustainable Cotton 27:23 — Consumer Economics: Who Fashion Brands Actually Sell To 29:15 — AI Data Centers, Consumption and Environmental Cost 31:10 — Fashion Survey Begins: How Young Shoppers Buy Clothes 32:07 — Do Brand Vibe, Culture and Ethos Matter? 32:44 — Rick Owens, Kozaburo and Buying Into Brand Worlds 35:17 — Wardrobe Building: Piece-by-Piece vs Full Aesthetic 36:06 — Rick Owens Harness Boots and Buying in a Vacuum 40:03 — UJ Militaria, CC41 Wartime Blazer & Archive Menswear 43:00 — Brand Storytelling: Undercover, Sustainability and Fashion Narrative 45:24 — What People Consider Before Buying Clothes 46:14 — Cost Per Wear Debate 50:15 — Sustainability, Ethics, Price, Fit, Resale Liquidity & Durability 52:16 — What Makes People Want to Buy Clothing? 52:41 — Honey Dijon, Coachella, Saturday Night Fever & Cultural Inspiration 56:09 — CDG, Archive Fashion and Mental Catalogs of Grails 56:42 — FKA Twigs, Interplanetary Criminal, Video Games & Fashion Inspiration 57:39 — Do Fashion Influencers Actually Influence Fashion People? 59:38 — The Batman, Motorcycle Jackets & Style Obsession 1:01:13 — Hedi Slimane's Celine “The Dancing Kid” Beanie 1:03:15 — Experience-Based Fashion: Drops, Pop-Ups, Coffee Shops & Activations 1:06:02 — Influencer Gifting, Clothing Waste & FOMO Marketing 1:08:41 — Big Red Boots, Puma Speedcats & Hype Products That Disappear 1:10:01 — Nike Total 90, Slim Soccer Sneakers & Footwear Trends 1:10:20 — Where People Experience Fashion: Raves, Flea Markets, Clubs & Coffee Shops 1:13:37 — Instagram as a Fashion Scene and Style Discovery Tool 1:17:44 — Clubs, Raves and the Anti-Commercial Fashion Scene 1:19:04 — Song of the Week 1:21:58 — The Devil Wears Prada 2, Fashion Movies & Reboot Culture 1:26:37 — Speed Racer, Style Nostalgia & Closing Thoughts 1:26:59 — Outro #FashionPodcast, #Menswear, #Streetwear, #Fashion, #Style, #FashionCulture, #FashionCommunity, #FashionDiscussion, #FashionAnalysis, #FashionCommentary, #MensFashion, #MensStyle, #ArchiveFashion, #FashionArchive, #VintageFashion, #FashionHistory, #DesignerFashion, #LuxuryFashion, #FashionResearch, #FashionWriting, #IntegratedFashion, #FashionTheory, #FashionConsumer, #FashionShopping, #FashionTrends, #FashionIndustry, #FashionMarketing, #BrandCulture, #FashionConsumerBehavior, #FutureOfFashion, #RickOwens, #CommeDesGarcons, #Undercover, #HediSlimane Sol Thompson and Michael Smith explore the world and subcultures of fashion, interviewing creators, personalities, and industry insiders to highlight the new vanguard of the fashion world.

As Pope Pope Leo XIV prepares for his visit to Valencia, one of Spain's greatest religious mysteries is once again back in the spotlight: the search for the true Holy Grail. And surprisingly, Spain has not one… but two famous chalices, both believed by some historians and believers to be the authentic cup used by Jesus during the Last Supper.The best known contender is kept inside Valencia Cathedral. Known as the Holy Chalice of Valencia, this small dark red agate cup has a story worthy of a Hollywood movie. Tradition says Saint Peter took it from Jerusalem to Rome, where early Christians protected it during periods of persecution. Later, during the Muslim invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in the 8th century, the relic was secretly moved across northern Spain, hidden in monasteries deep in the Pyrenees before eventually arriving in Valencia in the 1400s.What makes this grail especially fascinating is that several Popes, including Saint John Paul II and Benedict XVI, have actually used it during Mass. While the Vatican has never officially confirmed it as the authentic Holy Grail, historians agree that parts of the cup date back to the time of Christ.But Valencia is not alone. In the city of León, inside the ancient Basílica de San Isidoro, another chalice challenges Valencia 's claim. Known as the Chalice of Doña Urraca, researchers created worldwide headlines after suggesting it may also have travelled from Jerusalem through Egypt before reaching medieval Spain through royal alliances and Christian kingdoms.Faith, history, politics, and legend all collide in these mysterious cups. Whether authentic or not, Spain has become one of the world's most unexpected guardians of one of Christianity's greatest legends.For Jorge: Small Group Tours in Spain & PortugalWebsite: https://travelingwithjorge.com/Small group tours Spain, cultural tours Spain and Portugal, authentic travel experiences, guided tours for mature travelers, food and wine tours Iberian Peninsula.If you're dreaming about discovering Spain and Portugal beyond the typical tourist routes, Jorge designs small group cultural tours that combine history, local gastronomy, wine experiences, and meaningful human connections.

In this episode, the Bo-Hosts are joined by Canadian rock historian, podcaster and author Tim Durling (Tim's Vinyl Confessions) to continue the 40th-anniversary celebration of Van Halen's 5150.Tim shares his "on-ramp" story—the moment "Why Can't This Be Love?" changed everything—before diving into a world of physical media mysteries. From the "holy grail" 5150 8-track (yes, they existed in 1986!) to the hunt for the highly-elusive VOA, the trio explores the technical quirks and bizarre track-lists of a dying format.Then the guys bridge the gap from 5150 to Sammy's 1987 solo record, I Never Said Goodbye. They dissect Eddie Van Halen's quiet fingerprints as a producer & bassist on the album and how this "contractual obligation" record became a Gold-selling bridge between 5150 and Ou812 eras and in some cases, "honorary" Van Halen tracks!It's a high-speed session on rare gear, 80s nostalgia, and the peak of the Red Rocker era.

Joe Poirot joins the show as the Strongsville conversation continues, bringing fresh pickups and hobby momentum into the discussion. From trade night stories to major vintage acquisitions, the segment highlights the decisions collectors make when upgrading, selling, and refining their collections. The conversation then transitions into a deeper look at the hobby's scale and trajectory as Chris McGill and Josh Adams join. Topics include Card Ladder's reported $600 million month, what that number actually represents, and how much of the hobby's true transaction volume may exist beyond tracked platforms. This episode blends collector behavior, big card energy, and thoughtful discussion around the size, sustainability, and direction of the sports card market.

In this powerful message, Bev Murrill explores how God uses the challenges, pain, and irritations of life to shape us into something beautiful. Drawing from Jesus' parable of the pearl of great price, Bev reminds us that true transformation takes time and surrender. Like an oyster forming a pearl around a grain of sand, God covers our pain, pride, and fear with His grace until it shines with His glory.She challenges us to let go of the “holy grails” we cling to. Our opinions, control, and need to be right and instead pursue the priceless treasure of becoming more like Christ. Real healing comes not from what we hold on to, but from what we release into God's hands.This message will inspire you to trust God's process, find beauty in difficulty, and keep seeking the pearl of great price, Jesus Himself. No matter the cost.
Pack and Brett sit down and talk through the week in collecting and the week in football. They open with family updates and Colts and Bears storylines, then move into Mosaic Football and why the design hits for some collectors and misses for others.They break down borders, true one of ones, and the mindset behind chasing second-year cards of a quarterback who's starting to figure it out.The conversation shifts to Card Ladder sales as they highlight vintage, Select Gold, and a wild Drake Maye result that raised eyebrows across the hobby.They close with what makes a grail feel like a grail, why the word gets thrown around so often, and why defensive bidding has no place in the hobby.For collectors who love football and want a conversation that meets them where they are, this episode fits the moment.Vote for Heystack for Innovation of the YearVisit Heystack to explore their partner breaks.

Librairies Intégration de LangChain4j dans ADK pour Java, permettant aux développeurs d'utiliser n'importe quel LLM avec leurs agents ADK https://developers.googleblog.com/en/adk-for-java-opening-up-to-third-party-language-models-via-langchain4j-integration/ ADK pour Java 0.2.0 : Nouvelle version du kit de développement d'agents de Google. Intégration LangChain4j : Ouvre ADK à des modèles de langage tiers. Plus de choix de LLM : En plus de Gemini et Claude, accès aux modèles d'OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, etc. Modèles locaux supportés : Utilisation possible de modèles via Ollama ou Docker Model Runner. Améliorations des outils : Création d'outils à partir d'instances d'objets, meilleur support asynchrone et contrôle des boucles d'exécution. Logique et mémoire avancées : Ajout de callbacks en chaîne et de nouvelles options pour la gestion de la mémoire et le RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation). Build simplifié : Introduction d'un POM parent et du Maven Wrapper pour un processus de construction cohérent. JUnit 6 est sorti https://docs.junit.org/6.0.0/release-notes/ :sparkles: Java 17 and Kotlin 2.2 baseline :sunrise_over_mountains: JSpecify nullability annotations :airplane_departure: Integrated JFR support :suspension_railway: Kotlin suspend function support :octagonal_sign: Support for cancelling test execution :broom: Removal of deprecated APIs JGraphlet, une librairie Java sans dépendances pour créer des graphes de tâches à exécuter https://shaaf.dev/post/2025-08-25-think-in-graphs-not-just-chains-jgraphlet-for-taskpipelines/ JGraphlet: Bibliothèque Java légère (zéro-dépendance) pour construire des pipelines de tâches. Principes clés: Simplicité, basée sur un modèle d'exécution de graphe. Tâches: Chaque tâche a une entrée/sortie, peut être asynchrone (Task) ou synchrone (SyncTask). Pipeline: Un TaskPipeline construit et exécute le graphe, gère les I/O. Modèle Graph-First: Le flux de travail est un Graphe Orienté Acyclique (DAG). Définition des tâches comme des nœuds, des connexions comme des arêtes. Support naturel des motifs fan-out et fan-in. API simple: addTask("id", task), connect("fromId", "toId"). Fan-in: Une tâche recevant plusieurs entrées reçoit une Map (clés = IDs des tâches parentes). Exécution: pipeline.run(input) retourne un CompletableFuture (peut être bloquant via .join() ou asynchrone). Cycle de vie: TaskPipeline est AutoCloseable, garantissant la libération des ressources (try-with-resources). Contexte: PipelineContext pour partager des données/métadonnées thread-safe entre les tâches au sein d'une exécution. Mise en cache: Option de mise en cache pour les tâches afin d'éviter les re-calculs. Au tour de Microsoft de lancer son (Microsoft) Agent Framework, qui semble être une fusion / réécriture de AutoGen et de Semnatic Kernel https://x.com/pyautogen/status/1974148055701028930 Plus de détails dans le blog post : https://devblogs.microsoft.com/foundry/introducing-microsoft-agent-framework-the-open-source-engine-for-agentic-ai-apps/ SDK & runtime open-source pour systèmes multi-agents sophistiqués. Unifie Semantic Kernel et AutoGen. Piliers : Standards ouverts (MCP, A2A, OpenAPI) et interopérabilité. Passerelle recherche-production (patterns AutoGen pour l'entreprise). Extensible, modulaire, open-source, connecteurs intégrés. Prêt pour la production (observabilité, sécurité, durabilité, "human in the loop"). Relation SK/AutoGen : S'appuie sur eux, ne les remplace pas, simplifie la migration. Intégrations futures : Alignement avec Microsoft 365 Agents SDK et Azure AI Foundry Agent Service. Sortie de Jackson 3.0 (bientôt les Jackson Five !!!) https://cowtowncoder.medium.com/jackson-3-0-0-ga-released-1f669cda529a Jackson 3.0.0 a été publié le 3 octobre 2025. Objectif : base propre pour le développement à long terme, suppression de la dette technique, architecture simplifiée, amélioration de l'ergonomie. Principaux changements : Baseline Java 17 requise (vs Java 8 pour 2.x). Group ID Maven et package Java renommés en tools.jackson pour la coexistence avec Jackson 2.x. (Exception: jackson-annotations ne change pas). Suppression de toutes les fonctionnalités @Deprecated de Jackson 2.x et renommage de plusieurs entités/méthodes clés. Modification des paramètres de configuration par défaut (ex: FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES désactivé). ObjectMapper et TokenStreamFactory sont désormais immutables, la configuration se fait via des builders. Passage à des exceptions de base non vérifiées (JacksonException) pour plus de commodité. Intégration des "modules Java 8" (pour les noms de paramètres, Optional, java.time) directement dans l'ObjectMapper par défaut. Amélioration du modèle d'arbre JsonNode (plus de configurabilité, meilleure gestion des erreurs). Testcontainers Java 2.0 est sorti https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-java/releases/tag/2.0.0 Removed JUnit 4 support -> ups Grails 7.0 est sortie, avec son arrivée à la fondation Apache https://grails.apache.org/blog/2025-10-18-introducing-grails-7.html Sortie d'Apache Grails 7.0.0 annoncée le 18 octobre 2025. Grails est devenu un projet de premier niveau (TLP) de l'Apache Software Foundation (ASF), graduant d'incubation. Mise à jour des dépendances vers Groovy 4.0.28, Spring Boot 3.5.6, Jakarta EE. Tout pour bien démarrer et développer des agents IA avec ADK pour Java https://glaforge.dev/talks/2025/10/22/building-ai-agents-with-adk-for-java/ Guillaume a partagé plein de resources sur le développement d'agents IA avec ADK pour Java Un article avec tous les pointeurs Un slide deck et l'enregistrement vidéo de la présentation faite lors de Devoxx Belgique Un codelab avec des instructions pour démarrer et créer ses premiers agents Plein d'autres samples pour s'inspirer et voir les possibilités offertes par le framework Et aussi un template de projet sur GitHub, avec un build Maven et un premier agent d'exemple Cloud Internet cassé, du moins la partie hébergée par AWS #hugops https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/20/aws_outage_amazon_brain_drain_corey_quinn/ Panne majeure d'AWS (région US-EAST-1) : problème DNS affectant DynamoDB, service fondamental, causant des défaillances en cascade de nombreux services internet. Réponse lente : 75 minutes pour identifier la cause profonde; la page de statut affichait initialement "tout va bien". Cause sous-jacente principale : "fuite des cerveaux" (départ d'ingénieurs AWS seniors). Perte de connaissances institutionnelles : des décennies d'expertise critique sur les systèmes AWS et les modes de défaillance historiques parties avec ces départs. Prédictions confirmées : un ancien d'AWS avait anticipé une augmentation des pannes majeures en 2024. Preuves de la perte de talents : Plus de 27 000 licenciements chez Amazon (2022-2025). Taux élevé de "départs regrettés" (69-81%). Mécontentement lié à la politique de "Return to Office" et au manque de reconnaissance de l'expertise. Conséquences : les nouvelles équipes, plus réduites, manquent de l'expérience nécessaire pour prévenir les pannes ou réduire les temps de récupération. Perspective : Le marché pourrait pardonner cette fois, mais le problème persistera, rendant les futurs incidents plus probables. Web React a gagné "par défaut" https://www.lorenstew.art/blog/react-won-by-default/ React domine par défaut, non par mérite technique, étouffant ainsi l'innovation front-end. Choix par réflexe ("tout le monde connaît React"), freinant l'évaluation d'alternatives potentiellement supérieures. Fondations techniques de React (V-DOM, complexité des Hooks, Server Components) vues comme des contraintes actuelles. Des frameworks innovants (Svelte pour la compilation, Solid pour la réactivité fine, Qwik pour la "resumability") offrent des modèles plus performants mais sont sous-adoptés. La monoculture de React génère une dette technique (runtime, réconciliation) et centre les compétences sur le framework plutôt que sur les fondamentaux web. L'API React est complexe, augmentant la charge cognitive et les risques de bugs, contrairement aux alternatives plus simples. L'effet de réseau crée une "prison": offres d'emploi spécifiques, inertie institutionnelle, leaders choisissant l'option "sûre". Nécessité de choisir les frameworks selon les contraintes du projet et le mérite technique, non par inertie. Les arguments courants (maturité de l'écosystème, recrutement, bibliothèques, stabilité) sont remis en question; une dépendance excessive peut devenir un fardeau. La monoculture ralentit l'évolution du web et détourne les talents, nuisant à la diversité essentielle pour un écosystème sain et innovant. Promouvoir la diversité des frameworks pour un écosystème plus résilient et innovant. WebAssembly 3 est sortie https://webassembly.org/news/2025-09-17-wasm-3.0/ Data et Intelligence Artificielle UUIDv4 ou UUIDv7 pour vos clés primaires ? Ça dépend… surtout pour les bases de données super distribuées ! https://medium.com/google-cloud/understanding-uuidv7-and-its-impact-on-cloud-spanner-b8d1a776b9f7 UUIDv4 : identifiants entièrement aléatoires. Cause des problèmes de performance dans les bases de données relationnelles (ex: PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server) utilisant des index B-Tree. Inserts aléatoires réduisent l'efficacité du cache, entraînent des divisions de pages et la fragmentation. UUIDv7 : nouveau standard conçu pour résoudre ces problèmes. Intègre un horodatage (48 bits) en préfixe de l'identifiant, le rendant ordonné temporellement et "k-sortable". Améliore la performance dans les bases B-Tree en favorisant les inserts séquentiels, la localité du cache et réduisant la fragmentation. Problème de UUIDv7 pour certaines bases de données distribuées et scalables horizontalement comme Spanner : La nature séquentielle d'UUIDv7 (via l'horodatage) crée des "hotspots d'écriture" (points chauds) dans Spanner. Spanner distribue les données en "splits" (partitions) basées sur les plages de clés. Les clés séquentielles concentrent les écritures sur un seul "split". Ceci empêche Spanner de distribuer la charge et de scaler les écritures, créant un goulot d'étranglement ("anti-pattern"). Quand ce n'est PAS un problème pour Spanner : Si le taux d'écriture total est inférieur à environ 3 500 écritures/seconde pour un seul "split". Le hotspot est "bénin" à cette échelle et n'entraîne pas de dégradation de performance. Solutions pour Spanner : Principe clé : S'assurer que la première partie de la clé primaire est NON séquentielle pour distribuer les écritures. UUIDv7 peut être utilisé, mais pas comme préfixe. Nouvelle conception ("greenfield") : ▪︎ Utiliser une clé primaire non-séquentielle (ex: UUIDv4 simple). Pour les requêtes basées sur le temps, créer un index secondaire sur la colonne d'horodatage, mais le SHARDER (ex: shardId) pour éviter les hotspots sur l'index lui-même. Migration (garder UUIDv7) : ▪︎ Ajouter un préfixe de sharding : Introduire une colonne `shard` calculée (ex: `MOD(ABS(FARM_FINGERPRINT(order_id_v7)), N)`) et l'utiliser comme PREMIER élément d'une clé primaire composite (`PRIMARY KEY (shard, order_id_v7)`). Réordonner les colonnes (si clé primaire composite existante) : Si la clé primaire est déjà composite (ex: (order_id_v7, tenant_id)), réordonner en (tenant_id, order_id_v7). Cela aide si tenant_id a une cardinalité élevée et distribue bien. (Un tenant_id très actif pourrait toujours nécessiter un préfixe de sharding supplémentaire). RAG en prod, comment améliorer la pertinence des résultats https://blog.abdellatif.io/production-rag-processing-5m-documents Démarrage rapide avec Langchain + Llamaindex: prototype fonctionnel, mais résultats de production jugés "subpar" par les utilisateurs. Ce qui a amélioré la performance (par ROI): Génération de requêtes: LLM crée des requêtes sémantiques et mots-clés multiples basées sur le fil de discussion pour une meilleure couverture. Reranking: La technique la plus efficace, modifie grandement le classement des fragments (chunks). Stratégie de découpage (Chunking): Nécessite beaucoup d'efforts, compréhension des données, création de fragments logiques sans coupures. Métadonnées à l'LLM: L'injection de métadonnées (titre, auteur) améliore le contexte et les réponses. Routage de requêtes: Détecte et traite les questions non-RAG (ex: résumer, qui a écrit) via API/LLM distinct. Outillage Créer un serveur MCP (mode HTTP Streamable) avec Micronaut et quelques éléments de comparaison avec Quarkus https://glaforge.dev/posts/2025/09/16/creating-a-streamable-http-mcp-server-with-micronaut/ Micronaut propose désormais un support officiel pour le protocole MCP. Exemple : un serveur MCP pour les phases lunaires (similaire à une version Quarkus pour la comparaison). Définition des outils MCP via les annotations @Tool et @ToolArg. Point fort : Micronaut gère automatiquement la validation des entrées (ex: @NotBlank, @Pattern), éliminant la gestion manuelle des erreurs. Génération automatique de schémas JSON détaillés pour les structures d'entrée/sortie grâce à @JsonSchema. Nécessite une configuration pour exposer les schémas JSON générés comme ressources statiques. Dépendances clés : micronaut-mcp-server-java-sdk et les modules json-schema. Testé avec l'inspecteur MCP et intégration avec l'outil Gemini CLI. Micronaut offre une gestion élégante des entrées/sorties structurées grâce à son support JSON Schema riche. Un agent IA créatif : comment utiliser le modèle Nano Banana pour générer et éditer des images (en Java, avec ADK) https://glaforge.dev/posts/2025/09/22/creative-ai-agents-with-adk-and-nano-banana/ Modèles de langage (LLM) deviennent multimodaux : traitent diverses entrées (texte, images, vidéo, audio). Nano Banana (gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview) : modèle Gemini, génère et édite des images, pas seulement du texte. ADK (Agent Development Kit pour Java) : pour configurer des agents IA créatifs utilisant ce type de modèle. Application : Base pour des workflows créatifs complexes (ex: agent de marketing, enchaînement d'agents pour génération d'assets). Un vieil article (6 mois) qui illustre les problèmes du format de fichier YAML https://ruudvanasseldonk.com/2023/01/11/the-yaml-document-from-hell YAML est extrêmement complexe malgré son objectif de convivialité humaine. Spécification volumineuse et versionnée (YAML 1.1, 1.2 diffèrent significativement). Comportements imprévisibles et "pièges" (footguns) courants : Nombres sexagésimaux (ex: 22:22 parsé comme 1342 en YAML 1.1). Tags (!.git) pouvant mener à des erreurs ou à l'exécution de code arbitraire. "Problème de la Norvège" : no interprété comme false en YAML 1.1. Clés non-chaînes de caractères (on peut devenir une clé booléenne True). Nombres accidentels si non-guillemets (ex: 10.23 comme flottant). La coloration syntaxique n'est pas fiable pour détecter ces subtilités. Le templating de documents YAML est une mauvaise idée, source d'erreurs et complexe à gérer. Alternatives suggérées : TOML : Similaire à YAML mais plus sûr (chaînes toujours entre guillemets), permet les commentaires. JSON avec commentaires (utilisé par VS Code), mais moins répandu. Utiliser un sous-ensemble simple de YAML (difficile à faire respecter). Générer du JSON à partir de langages de programmation plus puissants : ▪︎ Nix : Excellent pour l'abstraction et la réutilisation de configuration. Python : Facilite la création de JSON avec commentaires et logique.

Loi, société et organisation Microsoft va imposer une politique de Return To Office https://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-execs-explain-rto-mandate-in-internal-meeting-2025-9 Microsoft impose 3 jours de présence au bureau par semaine à partir de février 2026, débutant par la région de Seattle Le CEO Satya Nadella explique que le télétravail a affaibli les liens sociaux nécessaires à l'innovation Les dirigeants citent des données internes montrant que les employés présents au bureau "prospèrent" davantage L'équipe IA de Microsoft doit être présente 4 jours par semaine, règles plus strictes pour cette division stratégique Les employés peuvent demander des exceptions jusqu'au 19 septembre 2025 pour trajets complexes ou absence d'équipe locale Amy Coleman (RH) affirme que la collaboration en personne améliore l'énergie et les résultats, surtout à l'ère de l'IA La politique s'appliquera progressivement aux 228 000 employés dans le monde après les États-Unis Les réactions sont mitigées, certains employés critiquent la perte d'autonomie et les bureaux inadéquats Microsoft rattrape ses concurrents tech qui ont déjà imposé des retours au bureau plus stricts Cette décision intervient après 15 000 licenciements en 2025, créant des tensions avec les employés Comment Claude Code est né ? (l'histoire de sa création) https://newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/how-claude-code-is-built Claude Code : outil de développement "AI-first" créé par Boris Cherny, Sid Bidasaria et Cat Wu. Performance impressionnante : 500M$ de revenus annuels, utilisation multipliée par 10 en 3 mois. Adoption interne massive : Plus de 80% des ingénieurs d'Anthropic l'utilisent quotidiennement, y compris les data scientists. Augmentation de productivité : 67% d'augmentation des Pull Requests (PR) par ingénieur malgré le doublement de l'équipe. Origine : Commande CLI simple évoluant vers un outil accédant au système de fichiers, exploitant le "product overhang" du modèle Claude. Raison du lancement public : Apprendre sur la sécurité et les capacités des modèles d'IA. Pile technologique "on distribution" : TypeScript, React (avec Ink), Yoga, Bun. Choisie car le modèle Claude est déjà très performant avec ces technologies. "Claude Code écrit 90% de son propre code" : Le modèle prend en charge la majeure partie du développement. Architecture légère : Simple "shell" autour du modèle Claude, minimisant la logique métier et le code (suppression constante de code superflu). Exécution locale : Privilégiée pour sa simplicité, sans virtualisation. Sécurité : Système de permissions granulaire demandant confirmation avant chaque action potentiellement dangereuse (ex: suppression de fichiers). Développement rapide : Jusqu'à 100 releases internes/jour, 1 release externe/jour. 5 Pull Requests/ingénieur/jour. Prototypage ultra-rapide (ex: 20+ prototypes d'une fonctionnalité en quelques heures) grâce aux agents IA. Innovation UI/UX : Redéfinit l'expérience du terminal grâce à l'interaction LLM, avec des fonctionnalités comme les sous-agents, les styles de sortie configurables, et un mode "Learning".

James Brittain-McVey from The Vamps joins Perri and Rashawn to talk about how he got into watches through his father-in-law. He shares stories about touring with expensive watches, his custom Christopher Ward Bel Canto based on a 1962 Fender Stratocaster, and why he loves indie brands over the typical luxury flex pieces. James talks about his grail 1655 Explorer II, the importance of community in watches, and how collecting connects him with people outside the music world. He also discusses traveling with watches, his take on precious metals versus steel, and why the watch community reminds him of what he loves about being a musician.

We're back for another exciting episode of The Self Portrait Gospel Podcast with our friend, the talented multi-instrumentalist, artist, and fellow Nicolas Cage enthusiast, IIyas Ahmed. Pulling up a digital chair to chat with us about his visceral vision of the world and the people in it, the never-ending landscape of jazz, and its related juxtaposition, Ahmed tells the tonal tale joining the melodic machine that is Grails, his favorite films, a solo career that spans over two decades, and the intimate instincts it takes to be an artist in this day and age. Having come from a Greek/Pakistani background, Ahmed, like most of his generation, connected with the critical climate of the punk and hardcore bands of the 1980s before establishing a more spiritual setting on the melodic meter of self-discovery and existential expression. While exploring the atmospheric alchemy of instrumental music and its cinematic nature, Ahmed's overall style and approach are undeniably universal, as he confidently communicates a language that is both lyrical and legitimate.
This week we talked to David Weed! We chopped it up about comic books, video games, food that will burn your mouth, secondary condiments, basketball, puppets, and so much more. Oh, we are back! Music this week:David Weed, Grails, Armpit Termites, and Private Lives
Dial STAR 67… it's time for Confession Session.This week, Kim takes on confessions that cut across love, beauty, ambition, and pure survival: breaking cycles with shitty exes, the products she'd replace the same day she lost them, the fear of leaping into full-time entrepreneurship, and one girl's rent-free hustle that might just be iconic.No sugar-coating. Just the truth, a little tough love, and a reminder that you're not the only one figuring it out.

Send us a textThis week, Teko & McFlei are talking “G.O.A.T.S. & Grails”—those once-coveted sneakers from nearly 20 years ago that could've been worth a down payment on a house, now collecting dust on shelves below retail or moving for just a few hundred bucks instead of the thousands they once commanded.The fellas also give an update on how the streets responded to the ongoing Undefeated Jordan 4 release—were there riots, police shutdowns, or did it all go smoother than expected? They unpack it all.Plus, they cover the Awake x Air Jordan 5 dropping in two colorways with extremely limited stock, along with fresh heat from Anthony Edwards and James Harden as their signature lines start making noise again heading into the 2025–2026 NBA season.All this and much more on this week's episode of The Sneaker Dads Podcast!Support the show

Welcome back to All One Song: A Neil Young Podcast. We're spending the summer talking to some great musicians and writers about their one favorite Neil Young song. Or at least one of their favorite songs. Last week, our guest was Steve Shelley of Sonic Youth — and of course, the conversation went deep into Steve's memories of Sonic Youth's tour with Neil and Crazy Horse in 1991, when both bands were bringing incredible waves of feedback to the masses across North America. An exciting time! For Neil, the tour resulted in a fairly traditional live album, the classic double-disc Weld. But that wasn't all. Inspired partly by what he heard Sonic Youth doing, Young also put together Arc, one of — if not the — most avant-garde pieces of music Young has ever created. Basically, it's a 35-minute noise collage consisting of the elongated and improvised endings of various songs that he and the Horse played in early 91. It's the sound of amplifiers pushed to their limits, of things falling apart in ragged, glorious fashion. It's an expressway to yr skull, as Sonic Youth put it. Here this week to examine the mysteries and magic of Arc is Ilyas Ahmed. The Portland, OR-based musician has been making consistently fascinating music for well over two decades now, whether all on his own or in close collaboration with fellow travelers like Grouper, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, Golden Retriever, Dania Shihab and many more. He also serves as guitarist in Grails, an awesomely uncategorizable collective that just put out one of the 2025's best records — the appropriately named Miracle Music. No matter what Ilyas does, it's always infused with a sense of curiosity, adventure and imagination. Our conversation about Arc goes in a bunch of different directions — it's a rich text, as the academics like to say. So let's get into it … Looking for a digital music platform that feels more like a record shop?

In Part 3 of this week's Sports Cards Live, Theo Rebottini (@clementecollector) makes the bold claim that player collecting is the best way to collect—and Jeremy pushes back. What follows is a passionate and nuanced debate about the pros and cons of collecting your GOAT, the emotional risk of collecting modern players, and the limitations of a narrow player PC. Jeremy shares his multi-focused approach and personal player PCs (including Dale Hawerchuk and Teemu Selanne), while Josh Adams and Ben Burrows weigh in with their thoughts on pre-war baseball, set collecting, oddball regionals, and even hot dog juice! Topics include: Focused vs. unfocused vs. multi-focused collecting Player PC risks: boredom, budget burn, team trades Vintage vs. modern player collecting Set collecting and being “a prisoner to the checklist” The beauty of “flight collecting” Regional oddballs, grails, and crossover value The collector–investor spectrum Plus, the conversation starts to shift into SGC's future under Collectors and whether their grading legacy is at risk. Each week we tackle hot hobby headlines with a rotating panel of hobbyists, taking your questions and comments! We are likely to go into overtime so join us live grab your favorite beverage and snacks and bring your questions and comments as they will be in play.

Emily Ratajkowski just got the worst haircut of her life—her words, not ours—but somehow turned it into a genius Kérastase ad. We had thoughts, so naturally, we had to kick off this week's Uncensored ep by dissecting the whole thing. Then, in honour of 25 Years of Adore Beauty, we’re revealing the three best-selling, most iconic products of all time—and trust us, the results might surprise you. We also sat down with the woman who started it all: Kate Morris, co-founder of Adore Beauty. From launching Australia’s first online beauty retailer at just 21 to shaping how we shop for beauty today, Kate has seen (and tried) it all. She spills on the products currently taking up prime real estate on her shelf and takes us on a nostalgic trip down memory lane—including the story behind the iconic Adore Beauty Tim Tam. And finally, do your nails really need a break? We dive into the debate and share our best advice (and product picks) for this week's Beauty IQ Hotline.

How far would Nike possibly go when it comes to bringing grail sneakers back out of the vault? Could untouchable sneakers like the “Red October” Air Yeezy 2 and the Nike Mag actually see some sort of retro? Would people line up all over again for a classic like Sean Wotherspoon's corduroy Air Max 1/97? What about the return of Virgil Abloh's Off-White x Nikes? In light of Nike bringing back heat like the Wu-Tang Dunks and Undefeated x Air Jordan 4s, co-hosts Joe La Puma, Brendan Dunne, and Matt Welty debate the merits of that kind of retro in this episode. Also in the episode: the best Air Jordan retro era ever, Stussy's Nike Baltoros, and the leopard print Adidas Sambas. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We'll talk about all of that in more in this, the first episode of the THIRD YEAR of The Coin Jam Podcast!Welcome to The Coin Jam Podcast, a show about repairing, restoring, and collecting classic coin-operated amusement machines.

This week, we've got the final file from Felix's Hong Kong adventure, and we've undoubtedly saved the best til last. Zoë Abelson, better known on Instagram as @watchgirloffduty has built a life and a career hunting down rare timepieces. These days that business has coalesced into Graal Watch, which makes her the perfect person to find that obscure reference. We chat with Zoë about the pros and cons of hunting other people's grails and explore the ambiguities implicit in the watch dealers' role as tastemakers, as well as what those tastes are looking like today: pro tip — smaller watches are where it's at. Before all that, Andy and Felix tackle the thorny issue of giving Andy's dad a watch. Let us know in the comments what you think that watch was.

This cast ties together the 90's era of our story to the current ERA.💫 (if you want some XTRA background you can re-listen to the episodes 'Moving to LA' & 'Moving to Portland' as those two set this one UP.) The opening catches listeners up to Portland, Oregon in 1999 and the emotional STATE of things... but this cast could ultimately be called "The beginning of GRAILS". The bottom line is that one often has to throw everything out the window to open up a new horizon of possibilities. And that horizon, by definition, can often begin with a pathetic and destitute situation by LAW. But from that desert floor,, grow the WEEDS that become the terrain in every hero's journey rite? This cast features a couple very special guests... Alex Hall (Grails co-founder, who's living out in Malmo, Sweden) weighs in on the frame by frame situation from his perspective. And then Emil & Alex realize that they didn't so much 'start' Grails but that their mutual friend Brad Adkins (who introduced them) forced them to start the band against their WILL. So not only do you often begin the dream out in the desert with no food or water,, but sometimes there's a GUN to yr back too.🔥🚣♂️🔥 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
