Nintendo is gearing up to remaster Star Fox 64 for the Switch 2, marking the third time this beloved classic has been repackaged and sold to the masses. Now with more modern, more disturbing graphics, Star Fox (2026) is bringing Fox, Falco, Slippy, Peppy and the rest to center stage. When you put a character on center stage, the public expects them to deliver a monologue or sing a solo, right? Well, to meet these great expectations, we hear at DT!HQ have decided to cast the characters of Star Fox 64 in a beloved musical! Todd is hopelessly devoted to his answer. Matt is going out tonight with his answer. Kyle is satisfied with his answer.

Why This Episode MattersSabrina Maniscalco is one of the few people in quantum who has lived the full arc: two decades of academic work on open quantum systems and non-Markovian noise at Palermo, Turku, Edinburgh, and Helsinki, followed by founding Algorithmiq with three of her former researchers after an early Qiskit Camp. That trajectory matters now because Algorithmiq just had a landmark stretch — sole winner of the $2M Wellcome Leap Q4Bio prize for a quantum-enabled cancer drug discovery workflow, an €18M Series B, a global HQ move to Milan, and its Tensor Network Error Mitigation (TEM) function landing in IBM's Qiskit Functions catalog.If you're trying to make sense of where quantum software actually creates value before fault tolerance arrives — and what a credible "trajectory to advantage" looks like when paired with real clients in life sciences — this is a grounded, technically specific conversation with someone building it.EPISODE SPONSORThis episode is brought to you by Outshift, Cisco's incubation engine. The need for computational power is rapidly increasing in every sector. From drug discovery to material innovation to complex financial modeling, classical systems are reaching their absolute limits. It's time for a paradigm shift. The answer is a scalable quantum network, built on open standards and vendor-agnostic architecture. By uniting distributed quantum devices, you unlock limitless computational power.Learn more about the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch at Outshift.com.Go deeper with the blog post The switch that quantum networking has been waiting for.What We Get IntoWhy a background in open quantum systems and non-Markovian noise turned out to be unusually well-suited to running algorithms on noisy near-term hardwareThe actual science behind the Q4Bio winning workflow: simulating excited-state dynamics of a photosensitizer drug already in Phase II clinical trials, on up to 100 qubitsHow quantum-boosted DMRG works — and why it gives you a built-in benchmark against the best classical method via the bond dimensionThe tradeoff Sabrina would and wouldn't make between more qubits and lower noise, and why neutral atoms' slower sampling rates matter for chemistryWhy even fault-tolerant algorithms like quantum phase estimation still depend on getting state initialization and measurement rightAlgorithmiq's two-product structure: the Digital Quantum Interface (hardware-agnostic infrastructure) and the life sciences application frameworkHow methods built for chemistry are now opening doors into optimization and GenAI — and why that direction emerged from the work, not from a strategy deckWhat the move from Helsinki to Milan signals about the European quantum ecosystem and Algorithmiq's commercial scale-upHow an active learning pipeline is already proposing novel drug variants for synthesis in Prof. Sherri McFarland's labResources & LinksGuest & CompanyAlgorithmiq — The company Sabrina co-founded with Guillermo García-Pérez, Matteo Rossi, and Boris Sokolov; quantum software for life sciences and chemistry.Sabrina Maniscalco — University of Helsinki Research Portal — Publication record covering open quantum systems, non-Markovian dynamics, and quantum information.Sabrina Maniscalco — AI for Good Bio — Consolidated bio covering academic roles and advisory positions, including IQOQI Austria and CERN's Quantum Technology Initiative.The Q4Bio WinAlgorithmiq Wins $2M Wellcome Leap Q4Bio Prize — Company announcement detailing the photodynamic therapy workflow.Wellcome Leap — Q4Bio Prize Announcement — Funder's perspective on finalists and criteria.IBM Quantum Blog — Q4Bio Finalists — IBM's account of the workflow and quantum-classical integration.Funding & HQ MoveTech.eu — Algorithmiq's €18M Series B and Milan move — Coverage of Italy's largest quantum VC round to date.Quantum Computing Report — Algorithmiq Relocates to Milan — Strategic context including the Q4Bio win and IBM partnership.EU-Startups coverage — Investor lineup and Italy's National Quantum Strategy framing.Quantum Advantage & ToolingIBM Quantum Blog — The Dawn of Quantum Advantage — Includes Algorithmiq's TEM (Tensor Network Error Mitigation) function in the Qiskit Functions catalog.Algorithmiq & IBM Quantum Advantage Tracker — The heterogeneous materials experiment Algorithmiq and IBM put forward as a community benchmark.Silicon Republic interview with Sabrina — Useful prior context on her philosophy of using quantum to simulate quantum systems.Key Quotes & InsightsOn the foundation of the company's approach: "We learned very early what we thought were the bottlenecks of quantum computers — what you really need to worry about if you want to implement computation at scale." A direct line from Qiskit Camp Vermont to Algorithmiq's product strategy.On Q4Bio, in Sabrina's words: "This molecule is already in Phase II clinical trial. So it's not hydrogen. It's a real molecule." A useful counter to the common critique that quantum chemistry demos still live in toy-model land.On quantum-boosted DMRG (insight): In the worst case, the method matches the best classical technique; in the better case, it outperforms it — and the bond dimension tells you which regime you're in. Built-in benchmarking against the classical baseline.On the hardware tradeoff: Asked whether she'd prefer 100 higher-fidelity qubits or 200 noisier ones, Sabrina's answer is "it depends" — and the explanation about why neutral atoms' lower sampling rates limit chemistry use cases is one of the more concrete things you'll hear on platform tradeoffs.On strategy (insight): New verticals at Algorithmiq are ...

Kevin and Peter sit down with Jameson Collins, Destination Trail's HQ manager and course marking director, who just spent a week hanging dragons and ribbons across the entire course. Fresh off the trail, Jameson walks us through the loop aid station by aid station, with current-as-of-race-week intel on snow, water, blowdown, and everything in between.This year's race is a tale of two courses: a wild, remote, technical first ~100 miles through the Caldor Fire scar and forgotten corners of the El Dorado National Forest, then a return to the smooth, groomed "fairytale" Tahoe Rim Trail experience from Barker Pass home. Jameson breaks down where you'll be post-holing through soft snow (and why microspikes won't save you), which sections feel like bushwhacking dragon-to-dragon, where the jeeps will be crawling up Cadillac Hill, and why Wrights-to-Loon is the single hardest leg out there.Plus: gear and spike strategy, dressing for the brush and burn scars, the three sleep stations (Wrights Lake, Barker Pass, Brockway Summit), where the course dries out and water gets scarce, the brutal final climb under the Heavenly ski lifts, and Jameson's best advice for anyone tempted to quit with hours of cushion still in the bank.Race starts Friday, June 12 at 9 AM. 105-hour cutoff. Heavenly Stagecoach Lodge start/finish. Pacers allowed from Loon Lake (mile 87.6).Guest: Jameson Collins — Destination Trail HQ manager, course marking director, and founder of Huda Trail.

Will Robinson, VP of Exploration at West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSX.V:WRLG – OTCQB:WRLGF), joins me to review the key metrics returned from the updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at the Rowan Deposit and the first numbers from the Mt Jamie deposit. Both Rowan and Mt Jamie are satellite deposits nearby the flagship Madsen Gold Project, in the Red Lake district of Ontario, Canada. We also discuss some of the exploration news on tap in 2026 around the Madsen Mine. HIGHLIGHTS: Rowan Indicated gold ounces (“oz”) increased by 70% to 334,825 oz grading 13.03 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”), compared to 478,707 tonnes containing 196,747 oz grading 12.78 g/t Au in the 2025 MRE. Rowan Inferred gold oz increased by 52% to 179,013 oz grading 15.31 g/t Au, compared to 421,181 tonnes containing 118,155 oz grading 8.73 g/t Au in the 2025 MRE. Gold resource grade increased by 2% in the Indicated category and 75% in the Inferred category. Significant resource growth achieved with minimal exploration expenditures of C$3.5 million and relatively low drilling meters of 6,300m, representing a modest discovery cost of approximately C$17.60/oz gold. New drilling successfully expanded and upgraded several high-grade vein structures, including Veins 003, 006 and 013. Rowan continues to rank among the highest-grade undeveloped gold deposits in Canada based on an Indicated resource grade of 13.03 g/t Au. An initial resource estimate for the Mt. Jamie deposit was also prepared which includes an Indicated resource of 49,407 oz grading 14.13 g/t Au, with an additional Inferred resource of 35,791 oz grading 11.97 g/t Au. The Mt. Jamie deposit is located approximately 2km west of Rowan and shows strong potential for becoming an additional high-grade satellite in WRLG's Red Lake portfolio which presents obvious synergies to any future extraction scenario at Rowan. Expansion potential remains strong at Rowan and Mt. Jamie with mineralization open at depth and along strike and multiple vein zones demonstrating strong continuity beyond the currently modeled mineral domains. ROWAN 2026 MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE: The 2026 MRE update for Rowan incorporates an additional thirty-seven (37) holes for 6,300m of oriented HQ diamond drill core since the June 2025 MRE. A total of twenty-two (22) mineral domains were created to constrain the Rowan mineralization. This is a reduction from the twenty-six (26) domains used in the June 2025 MRE. The M&I resources from Rowan will factor into the upcoming combined PFS with Madsen A total of five (5) mineral domains were created to constrain the Mt. Jamie mineralization using drilling data in the existing database. Will mentions that more assays are still pending from the ongoing surface drilling into the prior-producing Starratt-Olsen area; which is near-surface and adjacent to the Fork deposit. There will be upcoming underground drilling planned along Austin 904 Zone, South Austin 4447 Zone, and the 13 East Drive drifting over into Lower Austin and eventually Derlak.

We recorded live from the SAP AI Intelligence Event hosted at the stunning Booking.com HQ in Amsterdam — a 3-day community-driven event that brought together SAP developers, AI practitioners, academics, and developer advocates from across Europe and beyond.Here's a taste of what we covered:AI Voice Agents in Healthcare — Ronald van der Looij (Versaia) shared how they're building AI agents to proactively manage medication reviews for elderly patients and reduce costly no-shows in mental health care. The ROI is real: one missed mental health appointment = €600 lost.The 4 Layers of AI — Evelien van der Hurk (CGI / former TU Denmark) broke down descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, and prescriptive analytics — and why the last one could unlock 20%+ savings for enterprises. Plus a sharp warning on AI bias that had the room talking.APM for ABAP — Marc Bernard introduced apm.to, a package manager for ABAP developers. Think NPM, but for SAP. Live in weeks. ABAP is not dead!SAP Developer Advocates — A brilliant panel on when AI actually makes sense (spoiler: not everywhere), the future of SaaS, and how to avoid getting lost in the hype.The big takeaway? AI is not the solution for everything — but knowing WHERE it adds real value is the skill that matters now.Huge thanks to Robert Eijpe for organizing this incredible event, and to Booking.com, Eswelt, Conduct, SAP, Lemongrass, AWS, and NL4B for making it possible.Chapters00:00:00 Intro00:01:12 Event setup with Robert Eijpe00:12:07 Agents working with agents and saving money with Ronald van der Looij00:24:02 4 layers of AI with Evelien van der Hurk00:42:43 APM for ABAP with Marc Bernard00:50:26 Round table with SAP Developer Advocates Nora, Kevin and Vitaliy and SAP Community Advocate Anne01:04:44 Wrap up

Jörgen Wigh, CEO of Lagercrantz Group Lagercrantz Group has completed 90+ acquisitions over 20 years and never sold one. CEO Jörgen Wigh runs 85 niche B2B companies under a 22-person headquarters with no integration, no exits, and no value realization targets. This is Part 2 of 2. Part 1 covers the deal model, while Part 2 is the operating culture. Jörgen gets into how 85 autonomous companies are governed without a matrix structure, why this model exists almost exclusively in the Nordics, what makes a founder walk away from a signed deal twice, why Lagercrantz deliberately targets a 10% failure rate, and what he would do differently starting from scratch today. What You'll Learn How Lagercrantz governs 85 autonomous companies with 22 people at headquarters Why the person who sources the deal always stays on the board post-close Why the Nordic compounder model exists here and almost nowhere else What makes a founder walk away from a signed deal twice What a 10% deal failure rate looks like when it's working as intended Why building this from scratch today takes at least a decade How cross-border deals get done when the legal contracts run 30 pages instead of 300 If you want to know how your team stacks up against the discipline Jörgen described across both episodes, take the M&A Competency Assessment. ____________________ This episode of M&A Science is presented by DealRoom.

Barack Obama's entire political career was built on image. The logo, the posters the "citizen of the world" speeches. The “hope and change.” The global adoration, the fainting crowds and the messianic language from the media. The Nobel Peace Prize before he had done anything to earn it. The carefully produced cultural aura surrounding him was always bigger than the man himself. Now that image has been literally poured into concrete and granite, with the result looking exactly like what it always was: cold, controlled, menancing, towering, and spiritually empty.“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, in 2023, Barack and Michelle Obama's Higher Ground Productions was attached to Netflix's 'Leave The World Behind', the dystopian thriller directed by Sam Esmail in which America begins collapsing through cyberattack, communications failure, infrastructure breakdown, mass confusion, and psychological terror. Netflix identified Higher Ground as part of the project, and the film itself was sold as a story about a mysterious blackout and a nation coming apart under invisible forces. Now take that imagery and place it side by side with Obama's new Presidential Library in Chicago. On one side, you have Obama's Netflix-backed dystopian nightmare: America cut off, Americans confused, phones dead, media gone, planes falling, tankers crashing, trust evaporating, and citizens left to wonder who is really behind the collapse. The end of the movie reveals it to be the American government. On the other side, you have Obama's real-world presidential tower that is massive, dark, nearly windowless, and standing over Chicago like the headquarters of the people who would remain after the collapse was complete. The official story is “democracy,” “hope,” “community,” and “civic engagement.” But the visual story is something very different. The visual story is granite, height, surveillance-age design, digital archives, curated memory, political legacy, and a near-religious treatment of a man whose presidency accelerated America's transformation into the globalized, technocratic, identity-driven, post-Christian system we are watching harden all around us. It is literally a depiction of George Orwell's '1984'. The UK Guardian said "Towering over a low-income area of Chicago, and wrapped in a speech that's hard to decipher, this controversial monolith feels like a menacing sci-fi HQ. Is it a monument – or a mausoleum?" That's a great question, and today we bring you all the news you need to know here on Day 2,270 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve!

Patagonia isn't just scaling mountains. They're scaling through affiliate strategy. This episode's guest, Cricket Treanor, went from the sales floor to HQ's Affiliate Marketing and Ecom team. When it comes to partnerships, they're thinking outside the box: cash back with Rakuten, listicles of the “best jackets”, and speaking out about social issues, to name a few. What should you do as a brand when you don't lean heavily into loyalty and deals? And, Cricket debunks some misconceptions about the affiliate space. It's more than just loyalty, it's actually about brand awareness. Affiliates aren't taking sales away from other channels. Where do they fit into the marketing funnel? Plus, Patagonia is more than just selling products, they're aiming to bring environmental awareness and sustainability efforts to their audience. How does the buy-back program contribute to Marketing strategy? In a world of overconsumption, how do you get customers excited about new products when overconsumption contradicts the brand mission? If you're a Marketer who wants to learn more about how partnerships, affiliate strategy, and digital marketing all play a role in scaling, this is the episode for you. Wrike brings structure, visibility, and accountability to work, so companies can make better business decisions, improve efficiency, and reduce risk.

Jörgen Wigh, CEO of Lagercrantz Group Jörgen Wigh has been CEO of Lagercrantz Group (STO: LAGR-B) for over 20 years. In that time he completed 90+ acquisitions, built a portfolio of 85 niche B2B companies, and delivered 15 consecutive years of record earnings per share. No capital raises. No forced integration. No exits. The Nordic compounder model has quietly outperformed global markets for decades, and Lagercrantz is one of the longest-running, most disciplined examples of it in operation. In Part 1 of 2, Jörgen walks through the deal model behind that track record. What You'll Learn How Lagercrantz finds companies that are not for sale, and why the first call almost never closes a deal How Jörgen pushes for exclusivity in weeks when most sellers are running a banker-led process The earnout structure Jörgen uses to keep founders motivated for three years after signing What he says when PE shows up at 11x and the seller is tempted to take the bigger check Why founders walk away from more money for legacy preservation, and the conversation that earns it How to close 8 to 12 deals a year without breaking pricing discipline If you are holding pricing discipline against private equity and want to know whether your team would do the same, DealPilot, powered by M&A Science, runs the M&A Competency Assessment so you can benchmark deal judgment before the next term sheet. ____________________ This episode of M&A Science is presented by DealRoom.

So much for the week off. Fraser and Lesley rush to the microphones for an unexpected, emergency podcast following Peter Murrell's guilty plea in Edinburgh. With Lesley literally broadcasting from a hotel car park in Wick on her way to the mass rally outside Holyrood, we unpack what this catastrophic pivot moment means for the SNP and the wider independence movement. In this episode, we discuss:The "Smoke-Filled Room": Why did the party choose to ignore the glaringly obvious warning signs for so long? * The Closed-Shop Legacy: Reflecting on the Sturgeon-Murrell era and how internal critics like Joanna Cherry and Douglas Chapman were sidelined.Corporate Festival vs. Grassroots Campaigning: How the party tilt shifted toward "Heathrow Lounges" and away from its own members.Taking Back the Mojo: Why the Yes movement needs to become a self-organising, self-authorising force rather than waiting on a nod from ANY party HQ. ★ Support this podcast ★

One heavy squat at 400 pounds was all Kalil Sherrod needed to know the poison hadn't won. Seven weeks before this recording, Kalil walked into elitefts HQ to hit his first major milestone since a brutal cancer diagnosis. That moment bridged the gap between his life as an elite performance coach and his reality as a survivor. Through two stem cell transplants and multiple rounds of high-intensity chemotherapy, he developed a conjugate-based survival blueprint—one that reinforces a hard truth: muscle mass is one of the most powerful insurance policies for the human body. Inside the Episode: The 93% Rule: Why maintaining a high performance floor matters more than chasing a peak during a competitive season Conjugate for the Court: Applying Westside methodology to basketball players without sacrificing vertical jump or shooting touch Training Through the Storm: How Kalil adjusted his training split during "ICE" chemotherapy to preserve lean tissue The Youth Development Gap: Why the loss of PE and martial arts is producing more fragile athletes—and how to reverse it The IV Protocol: A critical hydration strategy often overlooked during medical treatment Meet the Guest: Kalil Sherrod is a high-performance coach, author, and founder of Revenants Coaching. A former Division II basketball player, he serves as a Sports Performance Coach for the Thailand Titans and works with athletes at The Spot Athletics. He is the author of The Basketball Player's Training Guide and co-author of the elitefts eBook Mastering Conjugate Programming for Athletes. After surviving Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Kalil has dedicated his work to helping athletes and survivors use strength as a foundation for resilience.

Hegseth Struggles In The Hot Seat. Their King Is Better Than Our Wanna Be King. Dept Of War Name Change = $125m. Stabbing In Jewish Area In London. Idaho is in play. That's not spin from a party operative — that's the read on a state where 60% of voters identify as independent or independent-leaning, where a sitting senator is the fourth oldest and seventh richest in the chamber, and where a farm kid turned tank commander turned tech executive is running neck and neck with him among informed voters. Todd Achilles is the first 2026 endorsement from Independent Veterans of America, and on this episode of Independent Americans he lays out the no-BS case for why the rigged two-party system is finally cracking in places nobody expected. Paul Rieckhoff and Achilles get into the receipts: Jim Risch voting against the PACT Act and the CHIPS Act, a Senate Foreign Relations chair holding zero hearings on Iran or Cuba while the Pentagon books $25 billion in war costs and asks for a $1.5 trillion budget, and a $50 to $125 million bill just to rename the Department of Defense. They also dig into the human side — house parties with thirty-somethings who can't afford healthcare, 100+ town halls across all 44 Idaho counties, and a volunteer army built in an old restaurant turned campaign HQ.
