SummaryIn this conversation, Erik Hersman discusses the critical role of energy in driving productivity, health care, and education, particularly in rural communities in Africa. He highlights the challenges faced in utilizing excess energy generated in these areas and presents innovative solutions through his company, Gridless. The discussion transitions into the concept of the emergent grid, which aims to connect renewable energy generation with flexible computing loads to optimize energy use. Finally, Hersman draws parallels between energy challenges in Africa and the US, emphasizing the need for intelligent energy systems that can adapt to variable supply and demand.TakeawaysEnergy is essential for productivity and health care.Rural communities often struggle to utilize excess energy.Gridless acts as an economic shock absorber for communities.The emergent grid connects renewable energy with computing loads.600 million people in Africa lack electricity access.A significant amount of wind energy is wasted in the US.We need to stop wasting curtailed energy resources.Intelligent grids can enhance energy distribution efficiency.Modular energy solutions can be deployed faster and cheaper.The compute serves as a bridge to a resilient energy future.Chapters00:00 The Politicization of Bitcoin and Technology's Role in Society11:18 bp-introoutro_v2.mp4

Jean-Yves Stephan, cofondateur de Storio Energy, s'attaque à un défi majeur : optimiser le stockage d'énergie pour rendre l'industrie plus verte.Mais avant de co-fonder Storio Energy, Jean-Yves a déjà connu le grand huit de l'entrepreneuriat : une première startup passée par Y Combinator, un pivot, une croissance fulgurante et une revente réussie.Après cette première réussite dans la data entre Paris et San Francisco, il ressent le besoin de retrouver du sens. Il quitte le monde du logiciel pour s'attaquer à un défi plus concret, plus essentiel : Rendre le stockage d'énergie plus intelligent pour réduire l'empreinte énergétique des sites industriels. Avec Storio Energy, il installe et finance des batteries pour les grands consommateurs d'électricité, afin de réduire leurs coûts et leur empreinte carbone. Un secteur complexe, capitalistique, mais à fort impact.Au programme de cet épisode :→ Retours sur son premier succès entrepreneurial → La transition entre deux mondes : de la data au stockage → Comment trouver une nouvelle idée innovante→ Convaincre les industriels d'investir dans des batteries→ L'importance du financement et du partage des profits→ Les défis et réussites rencontrés en cours de routeJean-Yves nous partage son expérience d'entrepreneur, ses premiers succès, mais aussi les galères qu'il a dû surmonter pour bâtir son entreprise.

Il n'existe pas un âge unique où l'intelligence humaine atteint son apogée. En réalité, selon les chercheurs, différentes formes d'intelligence culminent à des moments distincts de la vie. C'est ce que montre une étude majeure publiée en 2015 dans la revue Psychological Science par Joshua Hartshorne et Laura Germine. Ces scientifiques du MIT et de l'hôpital de Boston ont analysé les performances de plus de 48 000 personnes à travers une série de tests cognitifs en ligne. Leurs résultats bousculent les idées reçues : l'intelligence n'a pas de “pic” unique, mais plusieurs sommets répartis sur le parcours de vie.Les capacités dites de “vitesse de traitement”, qui consistent à comprendre et à réagir rapidement à une information nouvelle, atteignent leur maximum vers 18 ou 20 ans. La mémoire de travail, qui permet de manipuler temporairement des données pour résoudre un problème, culmine un peu plus tard, autour de 25 à 30 ans. Ensuite, elle décline progressivement mais reste souvent suffisante pour la vie quotidienne. D'autres compétences, plus sociales ou émotionnelles, comme la reconnaissance des visages ou la compréhension des intentions d'autrui, continuent à se perfectionner jusqu'à la quarantaine.En revanche, ce que l'on appelle l'intelligence “cristallisée” — l'ensemble des connaissances acquises, du vocabulaire, de l'expérience — ne cesse de croître pendant des décennies. Elle peut atteindre son sommet bien après 50 ans. C'est pourquoi on dit souvent que la sagesse ou la capacité à prendre de bonnes décisions s'affine avec l'âge. L'étude souligne d'ailleurs qu'il n'y a pas un âge où l'on excelle dans tout, mais une série d'âges où chaque domaine cognitif brille tour à tour.Ces découvertes ont une portée optimiste : elles montrent que notre cerveau reste dynamique et adaptable tout au long de la vie. En continuant à apprendre, lire, échanger et relever de nouveaux défis intellectuels, il est possible de maintenir des performances élevées très longtemps. En somme, l'intelligence ne connaît pas un sommet unique, mais une succession de plateaux, différents selon les individus et les compétences. Comme le résument les chercheurs : il n'y a pas d'âge où l'on est “le plus intelligent”, seulement des moments où certaines aptitudes atteignent leur meilleur niveau. Hébergé par Acast.

In dieser Folge dreht sich alles um unsere Heizungen. Das Gebäude-Energie-Gesetz, das vielen wohl besser bekannt ist als „Habecks Heiz Hammer“ regelt, dass neue Heizungen in Neubauten seit Anfang 2024 zu 65% erneuerbare Energien nutzen müssen. Für Bestandsgebäude gelten Übergangsfristen. Das Ziel ist es, dass Deutschland so bis 2045 klimaneutral wird. Aber welche Möglichkeiten haben wir eigentlich abseits der viel diskutierten Wärmepumpe, um diese Vorgaben umzusetzen? Das bespreche ich mit Jens Wischmann, dem Geschäftsführer der Wirtschaftsvereinigung Gebäude und Energie in Deutschland und damit auch dem Betreiber des Portals „Intelligenz heizen“, welches Verbraucher:innen dabei unterstützen will, möglichst günstig und energieffizient zu heizen. Jetzt bitte nicht abschalten, falls du gerade nicht vor der Entscheidung stehst, dein Heizsystem zu wechseln. Denn wir sprechen auch darüber, wie man seine Heizung im Betrieb optimieren kann.

Last week brought the 13th annual ClioCon — the annual conference of legal technology company Clio — to Boston, Mass., where cofounder and CEO Jack Newton gave a keynote in which he laid out the company's vision for a new era of AI-driven legal work. That new era is one in which Clio becomes an "intelligent legal work platform" that serves not as a system of record, but as a system of action, powering lawyers through their workdays by automating much of what they do. Many had wondered what Newton's keynote would bring, coming on the heels of the company's $1 billion acquisition of legal research and AI company vLex, the largest deal ever in legal tech. Newton did not disappoint, announcing a slew of new products and features, ambitious plans to integrate AI throughout Clio's products, and formal expansion into the enterprise legal market with a new division and a new platform. It was a keynote that left some people thrilled, others shell-shocked. Perhaps most striking was that so much of what he outlined was not off in the future, but here today. The next day, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi sat down live with Newton for this interview in which they recapped much of what Newton covered in his keynote and discussed what lies ahead for the company and its leader.

In part one of my two part podcast series with Esteban Kolksy, Chief Distiller, Constellation Research, we discuss the AI debate, and our differences with that debate, and each other. Has the AI discussion changed this year at CCE 205? What were the key issues - and is there an AI gap between vendors and customers? We also hash out AI context, and why Kolksy doesn't like the "context engineering" catchprase, and why I have an equal problem with "grounding" of LLMs. Stay tuned for part two, where we shift gears to discuss Kolsky's progress on decision intelligence for executives and boards, why analyst firms are falling short, and how he uses AI (yes, AI) to assist with that research.

In this candid episode, Sarah explores a peculiar and frustrating challenge she has encountered repeatedly after years of running The Coaching Revolution: highly intelligent coaches are often the most difficult to teach.While it's reasonable to assume brilliant minds would be quick to implement proven strategies, Sarah reveals that the opposite is often true. She explains how intelligence, when combined with professional success, can create the most stubborn barrier to learning. This episode is a must-listen for any coach who prides themselves on their intellect but finds themselves struggling to get results.In this episode, you will learn:The Paradox of Intelligence: Why the assumption that highly intelligent individuals are easier to work with is "entirely wrong". Their advanced education and success often create a "stubborn barrier to learning".The "Special Case" Syndrome: How highly intelligent coaches resist new strategies. They don't question the methodology directly; instead, they "claim exemption", insisting their situation and their potential clients are special cases where the normal rules don't apply.Ego and Counter-Intuition: The resistance often stems from the "uncomfortable collision between intelligence and ego". Effective marketing can feel "counterintuitive" or simply "wrong", causing analytical minds to retreat into exceptionalism.The Power of Peer Validation: Why breakthroughs for intelligent coaches rarely come from expert instruction. The resistance only disappears when they engage with other highly intelligent professionals in a community who validate the process. Hearing from a peer carries more weight than instruction from a teacher.The High Cost of Resistance: Coaches who remain convinced they are special cases consistently fail, not because the teaching doesn't work, but because they won't implement it properly. They become their own biggest obstacle.The Path to Success: The most successful outcomes happen when intelligent coaches "temporarily suspend their need to understand why something works before they try it". True progress comes when they show humility and accept that brilliance in one field doesn't automatically translate to expertise in another.Have you enjoyed this episode?

In this episode of Becoming Unshakable, Heather reflects on a moment that reminded her what true leadership looks like from the inside out. Fresh from speaking to 13,000 nurses at the Atlanta World Congress Center, she shares how an experience that looked glamorous on the surface, with makeup, stage lights, and a long line of people waiting for hugs, became a powerful reminder that self-leadership is not selfish. It is essential. Heather unpacks what it means to prepare so thoroughly that you can show up fully. For her, deep preparation is an act of care, allowing presence to replace pressure and connection to replace performance. As she recounts her time with the nurses, she explores the toll that constant caregiving takes and how compassion fatigue quietly chips away at strength. Her message to them, and to all of us, is clear: when you care for yourself as intentionally as you care for others, you become the calm in the storm, the unshakable center that others can rely on. Through raw honesty, Heather shares her own turning point, the realization that the success she had built came at the cost of the people she valued most. That moment of clarity became the foundation of her teaching: align your life with your true values, lean on your team, ask for help, and give yourself permission to rest. Strong self-leadership is grounded in awareness, humility, and care. This episode invites you to look inward, to question the beliefs that keep you on autopilot, and to remember that balance is not weakness, it is wisdom. When you prepare with intention, lead with presence, and live in alignment with what matters most, you do not just survive the chaos. You become unshakable within it.

Investing in funds is not straightforward. We are faced with a countless range of options and constantly distracted by meaningless noise and turbulent markets. To make matters worse, our flawed beliefs and behavioural biases lead to repeated and costly mistakes, such as a damaging obsession with past performance and a dangerous attraction to thematic funds. There is a solution―a more intelligent way to invest in funds. In The Intelligent Fund Investor: Practical Steps for Better Results in Active and Passive Funds (Harriman House, 2022), experienced portfolio manager and behavioural finance expert Joe Wiggins brings simplicity and clarity to fund investing. Each chapter of this fascinating and highly readable book focuses on a vital element of investing in funds―exploring how and why investors can get it badly wrong, and providing direct, actionable steps for better results. Joe reveals: why we should avoid investing with star managers; how to decide between active and passive funds; why we should beware of smooth performance and captivating stories; why risk is far more than just volatility; the importance of a long time horizon; and much, much more. Using a combination of stories, empirical evidence and experience, Joe gives all fund investors―active and passive―what they need to reassess their beliefs, understand their biases, and make better investment decisions.

Akash Gupta of GreyOrange talks about warehousing and inventory challenges; taking a vendor-agnostic approach to tech; and hyper-intelligent orchestration. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [03.43] Akash's background and how and why he co-founded GreyOrange. “When we were in college, we were building humanoids… But the technology wasn't mature enough, so we explored industries that could really benefit from a combination of AI and robotics – and supply chain came to light!” [06.33] The story behind the name GreyOrange, and why culture is key to business success. [08.25] An overview of GreyOrange – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. [13.27] The ideal client for GreyOrange. [15.55] The current challenges and considerations in warehousing and inventory, and why optimizing inventory is crucial. “Optimizing inventory and working capital has been top of mind for the last few years, and balancing between warehouses and stores – how do you make sure you're able to use every single node?” [19.56] How industry challenges, and the way businesses are thinking about their changing operations, are driving GreyOrange's approach to innovation with flexibility, machine learning and commercial collaboration in mind. [23.40] GreyOrange's warehouse orchestration solution GreyMatter, and what makes it ‘hyper-intelligent.' “It's looking at every single aspect of the warehouse every second, and evolving the decision that can be taken for the next second.” [27.54] The challenge of change management, and how GreyOrange encourage tech adoption by empowering teams. “Change management is still a challenge in the industry… When you go from a manual warehouse to a technology-driven warehouse, leadership can feel that they're losing control, so we give them enough real-time visibility and power to influence decisions.” [31.51] From 30-40% cost-per-unit reduction to 250 thousand units picked per day, how working with GreyOrange drives big results in warehouses. [35.01] GreyOrange's approach to multi-robot infrastructures. “We support a wide spectrum of AMR's… GreyOrange is pretty much the only software that can bring all of these technologies together.” [37.45] The growth of GreyOrange's other flagship solution, gStore. “We've gone from having no presence in retail stores in 2022 to now operating more than 3,000 stores, connected to tens of thousands of IoT devices.” [41.00] Why GreyOrange put a focus on store associates to create a better experience for the end consumer, and why that's crucial for successful tech adoption. [43.19] A case study exploring how GreyOrange helped Fabletics with store inventory accuracy, boosting sales across their store network by 15-20% and increasing customer satisfaction, in only nine months. [46.03] Why GreyOrange is investing in building even more intelligent foundational models for warehouses and stores in 2026.

5. The Raven: Mythology, Intelligence, and Return AUTHOR: Stephen Moss BOOK TITLE: 10 Birds That Changed the World This excerpt examines the large, highly intelligent Raven (a crow on steroids). Its deep mythology stretches from the earliest civilizations, including Norse legend, where Odin's ravens (Huginn and Muninn) flew around the world as his eyes and ears. The myth states that if the ravens leave the Tower of London, the kingdom will fall. Historically regarded as harbingers of doom and persecuted as scavengers, ravens are currently making a successful, adaptable comeback in Britain. 1849

On this week's Modern Soccer Coach Podcast, Gary sits down in Rio de Janeiro with André Medeiros, the man who has helped shape Fluminense's methodology for over 25 years. Recorded during Gary's recent visit as part of the TetraBrazil Tour, this conversation dives deep into how Brazil's most respected academies view player development, coaching, and the evolving game. André shares incredible insights on: Why respect sits at the very top of Fluminense's core values. How coaches are taught to see themselves not as the center of the process, but as facilitators of player growth. The club's belief that “we don't build players — we develop them,” focusing on character, adaptability, and intelligence. The balance between athleticism, speed, and decision-making in the modern player. Why the future of football might see positions disappear entirely, replaced by fluid, dynamic systems built on player versatility. Beyond tactics and systems, André speaks passionately about the human side of the game — education, psychology, cooperation, and humility — all foundational pillars of how Fluminense produces not just great players, but great people.
