Podcasts about Inefficiency

Efficiency is king in a factory. But it doesn't quite work that way in a family.Reading Plan: Old Testament - Jeremiah 37-38Psalms - Psalm 119:113-120Gospels - John 6:16-24New Testament - 1 Peter 3:1-7Visit https://www.revivalfromthebible.com/ for more information.

Perhaps consumerism is the product of and the fact that most people now cannot afford to own a home, or a house or single property, single-family properties, and as a consequence, pours all of their time money and resources towards recurring objects, kind of like the low testosterone version of Tyler David, who just spends his whole life occurring the ideal little old furniture objects from IKEA or whatever to complete him himself? Fucking c'est la vie!.I suppose one of the biggest innovations in grand things about bitcoin is that, 99.999% of people could never afford a single family home, a single-family house, a single-family home home ownership. As a consequence, people pour all their money and resources into superfluous stuff like materials, material objects, iPhones, shrink it gadgets and wizmos, etc. I also wonder them, as a consequence and offshoot, what does then promote also is drugs, and alcoholism because once again, people have no other way of expansion, and as a consequence, seek escape and escapism from this otherwise cramped and depressing life.Something that's actually kind of shocking to me is that, I think the whole time I actually had no idea but, it does seem that the honest truth is that having a big ass house, a big ass plot of land, a single-family home, with a big ass backyard, with room to expand grow develop and build, is in fact, a quadrillion times better than renting an apartment. Especially if you have a young kid.Also for me as an adult, it's kind of shocking because I never thought that I would actually like only a single-family home, sweeping up the home, etc., and as a consequence, I think the big thing that I learned is the reason why you should never take peoples advice or ask them for their opinion is because they are not the same shoes as you.For example, like almost 100% of people are employed by somebody else but not themselves.Honestly it is extremely rare for me to ever meet anybody who is successful and also self-employed, ideally a sole proprietor, kind of like my friend Todd Hata, and more recently, a guy I bumped into named Codey,,, who apparently does set design for T-Pain, and also design for Shaquille O'Neal.  I think the wrong thing that people tried to chase is Security stability and perhaps some sort of like arbitrary notion of a big income? And as a consequence, people end up making the wrong life decisions because .Your thoughts shape reality AutomotonManly.aiHow to become more manly .Perhaps the purpose of having had is to just keep your head warm, you don't actually need to block the sun? Then ironically enough, once the sun is out, take off your hat? .Men, standing men, are superior to cars, stationary, short carsIt is true that the Germans, have superior craftsmanship, attention to detail.For example the Audi, Audi Q7 is like 1 trillion times better than any Tesla car.Then the question is, what is better quality, Audi, Lamborghini, Porsche Ferrari or Lexus?Also a bold idea, is it possible that Lexus could create some sort of new sub brand, or even more of an elite brand, which is like, the Rolls-Royce version of Lexus? Like imagine making some sort of like Lexus Rolls-Royce phantom?,The virtues of bark for a backyard… It's good at absorbing moisture?.Inefficiency is a virtue I guess getting my film Leica MP was a good idea it's kind of amazing because even after all this time, it still works amazing! Even going through major technological changes like AI etc.

Your Amazon bill isn't proof of overspending, it's proof of a missing rhythm.In this fifth episode of the Six Money Leaks series, Chanie uncovers why supply management is one of the most overlooked operational leaks in schools. From the toner that's reordered twice in a week to the “just in case” stockpiles that clutter closets, poor systems quietly drain thousands of dollars and create chaos for your team.You'll hear how one school leader cut supply costs by 50%, not by cutting corners, but by building rhythms of accountability, teacher ownership, and smarter purchasing strategies. Chanie explains how strong leaders use systems to bring predictability to supplies, just as they do in staff culture, enrollment, and every other gear of sustainable growth.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy supply challenges aren't spending issues, they're system issuesThe five pillars of supply management: inventory, seasonal planning, equipment lifecycle, vendor strategy, and storage organizationHow to create baselines that give you real data on usage and costsThe role of leadership rhythms in preventing waste and burnoutPractical steps to cut costs without sacrificing quality or cultureKey InsightsLeadership is stewardship. Systems, not sticky notes, are what protect your budget and your team's time.Culture is built in the details. When supplies are predictable, teachers feel supported and operations run smoothly.Growth requires optimization. Scaling isn't about more—it's about refining what you already have.Why This Matters for School LeadersWhen supply management runs on chaos, leaders end up overspending, overfunctioning, and burning out. When it runs on systems, leaders free capacity for strategy, teams feel supported, and operations hold under pressure.Resources & Next StepsDownload the free Money Leaks Diagnostic and assess your school's supply systems: schoolsofexcellence.com/moneyleaksMentioned in this episode:The 6 Money Leaks in Schools™Turn Financial Blind Spots into Immediate Profit.

Ike, Spike and Fritz play audio from Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown who says that the inefficiency on the Eagles passing offense is fair to talk about despite being 2-0.

Ray Didinger joined the 94 WIP Morning Show to talk about the Eagles offensive efficiency and his thoughts as well as his analysis of Drew Mukuba. Ray believes the Eagles' passing inefficiency has mostly been due to starters not playing pre-season games. AJ Brown seems like deep down he may be upset about the passing game, but he has kept it inside. The Morning Show listens to some audio from AJ's post-game press conference to decipher if there is an underlying issue.

In Episode 37 of The Choral Director's Toolbox, host Dr. William Baker makes "The Case for Inefficiency," challenging the idea that rigidly scheduled rehearsals always yield the best results. He shares why flexibility, exploration, and a willingness to linger in the music often lead to deeper artistry and more memorable performances. This week's listener question asks whether it is ethical, or even legal, to modify a composer's music, with Dr. Baker offering practical and thoughtful guidance. Today's inspiration is the spiritual "I Been in the Storm," arranged by Robert DeCormier and performed by The William Baker Festival Singers.

Australia's housing market is under pressure from many directions, but one of the most overlooked barriers is stamp duty. Once a relatively modest transaction cost, stamp duty has ballooned into one of the biggest financial hurdles for homebuyers. Just to give you an idea – in Sydney, stamp duty on a median-priced house has gone from around 45% of a household's disposable income in 2000 to 120% today. And it's not just buyers who are suffering. Stamp duty distorts housing decisions, locks people into homes that no longer suit them, and acts as a handbrake on productivity. Today, I'm joined by Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain, whose recent report makes a compelling case for replacing stamp duty with a fairer, broad-based land tax. Whether you're a property investor, a home buyer, or just somebody who's interested in the housing markets, I'm sure today's chat with Dr Nicola Powell will give you a new perspective as I also want to discuss their latest report on who has profited from property over the last few years.   Takeaways  ·         A growth mindset is essential for success in property investment. ·         Stamp duty presents significant financial barriers for home buyers and investors. ·         The burden of stamp duty has increased over time, affecting housing mobility. ·         Capital gains tax on family homes could discourage movement and exacerbate housing issues. ·         Stamp duty is economically inefficient, costing more in lost activity than it raises. ·         Housing misallocation is a significant issue in Australia, with many living in homes that exceed their needs. ·         Consumer confidence is a key driver of property market trends and price growth. ·         Longer holding periods for properties generally lead to greater capital gains. ·         Location plays a crucial role in property investment success. ·         Reform of stamp duty is necessary for improving housing mobility and economic productivity.     Chapters  01:58 Introduction 05:14 Australians Holding Their Homes for Longer 08:07 How Stamp Duty Deters People from Moving 09:56 The Inefficiency of a Stamp Duty 11:34 The Caveats of a Stamp Duty Reform 14:02 Recent Domain Report Results 18:35 The Confidence has Come Back into the Market   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here- www.PropertyTrivia.com.au ·         Win a hard copy of Michael Yardney's Guide to Investing Successfully.  Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.     Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan Click here and have a chat with us   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here   Dr Nicola Powell, Chief of Research and Economics at Domain  https://www.domain.com.au/news/author/dr-nicola-powell/   Domain's property profit and loss report:https://www.domain.com.au/research/profit-and-loss-report-1410018/ Domain's Stamp Duty suggestions: https://propertyupdate.com.au/stamp-duty-is-holding-australia-back-why-we-need-bold-reform/?   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at www.PodcastBonus.com.au     Also, please subscribe to my other podcast Demographics Decoded with Simon Kuestenmacher – just look for  Demographics Decoded wherever you are listening to this podcast and subscribe so each week we can unveil the trends shaping your future.

[This episode originally aired on Sept. 26, 2023]  This period of history has been marked by incredible leaps in efficiency: things that used to take a great deal of time and effort can get done more quickly and easily than ever  •  but there are whole areas of reality that can't be accessed by efficiency, no matter how quick or clever or speedy we are  •  in fact, the harder we try and the speedier we get, the further away we are  •  there's a value, at least once in a while, of taking a break from trying to be efficient, from trying to get somewhere faster  •  I'm not talking about rejecting the idea of efficiency, replacing it with some other approach; it's more about recognizing the limits of that attitude and that approach, and our tendency to apply it where it doesn't really fit  •  I have an old dog who I take on “walks,” although they're very, very slow, and he's very, very stubborn  •  if I think of these walks as walks, as exercise, or as trying to get somewhere, accomplish something, I just get more and more frustrated and impatient  •  but when I just drop that whole concept and just relate to the dog sniff by sniff, it's actually quite enjoyable.

As healthcare systems grapple with persistent staffing shortages and rising patient volumes, the need for streamlined, tech-enabled workflows has become urgent. A 2024 time-motion study across four hospitals found that clinical pharmacists spend over 80% of their time on clinical activities, with nearly 12% dedicated to face-to-face patient interaction. That leaves less than 20% for administrative and logistical tasks like inventory management, highlighting the opportunity for automation to further maximize clinical value. Omnicell's push toward an “autonomous pharmacy” seeks to rebalance this equation by automating routine operations and freeing up clinicians for patient-facing care.Can real-world automation and AI truly relieve cognitive burden without removing the human touch from healthcare?This second episode in a two-part Highway to Health series, hosted by David Kemp, features Omnicell's Randall Lipps, CEO and founder of Omnicell, and Nish Parekh, SVP and Chief Product Officer. They discuss how robotics, RFID, and predictive analytics are transforming medication workflows while restoring human connection in clinical care.Key Takeaways:The Autonomous Pharmacy Vision: Omnicell aims to automate repetitive pharmacy tasks, allowing over 200,000 pharmacists to reengage directly in patient care.Real-World AI and RFID in Action: The lab's MedTrack OR system uses RFID to track anesthesia meds in real time, solving inventory blind spots and reducing manual counts.Collaboration is the Catalyst: Every solution stems from customer-driven feedback. The Innovation Lab is not a showroom—it's a collaborative workspace to solve “big, hairy” problems.Randall Lipps is the founder, chairman, and CEO of Omnicell, where he has led the company from a single-product startup to a global leader in pharmacy automation and medication management. Drawing from his background in airline operations and logistics, he pioneered Omnicell's vision of the Autonomous Pharmacy, now serving over 5,000 hospitals and 40,000 pharmacies worldwide. Lipps also serves on several healthcare and digital health advisory boards and is recognized for his leadership in automation, innovation, and operational efficiency.Nish Parekh is a healthcare technology executive and current SVP and Chief Product Officer at Omnicell, where she leads global product strategy, innovation, and marketing. Her career spans leadership roles at IBM Watson Health, Epic, and AppliedVR, with a focus on AI, digital therapeutics, and advancing pharmacy automation. A recognized voice in health tech, she has been featured in Fast Company, spoken at SXSW and CES, and was named one of the Top 50 Women Leaders in Health Tech.

Friday Night Live 30 May 2025In this episode, I discuss the profound implications of artificial intelligence on society, prompted by Mike Cernovich's warnings about rapid advancements. I challenge the narrative that technology boosts productivity, citing how it often leads to inefficiency and bureaucratic overload. While I acknowledge AI's potential—drawing from my own experiences with technology in research and the promise of self-driving vehicles—I candidly address the likely job losses it may bring. I urge listeners to adapt to change and reflect on their own journeys, advocating for mutual care in relationships while maintaining boundaries in our emotional investments.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

TT – Broken Logic and Government Inefficiency  In this episode, the teenagers (Deven and Ethan) discuss many of the illogical things the government has done for far too long. From stopping you from using your own property (or making you pay to use it), to trying to stop people from helping others, and more. They also talk about some good news, including government being cut and even 1 corrupt person possibly being arrested. www.RealPowerFamily.com Info@ClearSkyTrainer.com 833-Be-Do-Have (833-233-6428) News insert: http://www.newsy.com/

Physician executive Tim Wetherill discusses his article, "Why AI is the perfect neutral arbiter for health care claims." Tim explores how deeply embedded incentives, inefficiencies, and subjectivity in the current claims adjudication process create opportunities for manipulation and inefficiency. He explains how AI, when trained on clear, bias-free rules, can standardize decision-making and eliminate ambiguity, reducing the need for multiple vendors and decreasing billing errors. Tim argues that AI is uniquely positioned to serve as an unbiased third party—improving outcomes for health plans, providers, and ultimately, patients. His insights point to a future where fairness and efficiency drive health care claims resolution. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

The practice of pastoral visitation in homes has fallen on hard times. For many of our forefathers in the faith, however, it was deemed an essential part of ministry, enabling effective oversight of the souls of the people of God. This week, we 'revisit' the area of pastoral visitation, although for many of us, it may be the first time we've considered the nature and benefits of this practice for ourselves and those we may serve in the church.   Featured Resources: – 'Pastoral Visitation—A Needed Revival', James Howard Lynch, featured in the Banner of Truth Magazine, Issues 731–732 (August & September 2024). – Excerpts from Charles Bridges, The Christian Ministry, with an Inquiry into the Causes of its Inefficiency (1850; repr. Edinburgh: Banner of Truth, 2018), pp. 344–360. – Ian Hamilton audio taken from Pastoral Visitation – Excerpts from 'The Directory for the Public Worship of God' in The Westminster Confession, with Associated Historical Documents (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth, 2023), pp. 562, 574.   The artwork featured with this week's episode is Richard Norris Brooke's 'A Pastoral Visit' (1881, Public Domain, now at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.

Media reports suggest that the rather haphazard attempts to restructure the US government could cost half a trillion dollars in lost tax revenues this year. Investors have not priced the restructuring as an efficiency improvement (more efficient government would boost both bonds and equities). While record wealth levels in the US suggest that the high fiscal deficit can be funded, losing tax revenue on this scale will raise concerns about sustainability at some point.

In this must-listen episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how the Democrat Party lost its way following their 2024 election defeat. From non-stop cries of a “constitutional crisis” to unapologetic support for a bloated administrative state and failed institutions, Professor Giordano dissects the core issues that pushed voters away.

Vehicle fuel efficiency requirements, also known as Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, were enacted in response to the 1970s oil embargo. But CAFE regulations have been buffeted by energy politics since that time. Once in office, President-elect Donald Trump is expected to carry on that tradition. Also in this episode: Homeowners affected by natural disasters have mortgage relief options, employers in expensive areas invest in manufactured housing and tech giants (still) dominate the stock market.
