Recently, I read a fantastic LinkedIn post by Francisco Perez van der Oord, the founder of ITQ, in which he explained why he believes in Broadcom's strategic direction and the VMware portfolio. It was an interesting read, and for me, a great reason to invite one of our most valued partners in EMEA to the show. I want to thank Francisco for taking the time to sit down, as I know he has a crazy schedule.Enjoy the conversation!

Johan van Amersfoort, Chief Evangelist & AI Lead bij IBM Business Partner ITQ, schuift aan om te praten over de inspirerende projecten waar hij bij betrokken is vanuit ITQ. ITQ heeft een duidelijke multicloud-visie en ondersteunt bij het bouwen van cloudplatformen die geschikt zijn voor zowel moderne als traditionele applicaties, evenals AI-workloads.We staan onder andere stil bij een indrukwekkend project voor Airbus, waarbij maar liefst 16.000 developers zijn geholpen. Door gebruik te maken van onder andere HashiCorp Packer en Red Hat Ansible wist ITQ de deployment van base image management drastisch te versnellen — van maanden naar slechts weken of zelfs dagen.Daarnaast bespreken we wat Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) inhoudt en hoe ITQ organisaties helpt bij het ontwikkelen van een AI-platform, waarmee data kan worden omgezet in waardevolle applicaties of modellen.

En este episodio hablamos con Hermenegildo García, investigador del Instituto de Tecnología Química (UPV-CSIC), líder del grupo HG energy, especialista en catálisis y materiales emergentes, y uno de los pocos científicos españoles que ha logrado una prestigiosa ERC Advanced Grant.Conversamos sobre su trayectoria investigadora, desde sus inicios en la ciencia hasta sus trabajos más recientes con los MXenes, una familia de materiales ultrafinos que están captando la atención de la comunidad científica por su enorme potencial… y sus enormes desafíos.¿Qué son los MXenes? ¿Por qué podrían cambiar la forma en que hacemos catálisis? ¿Y cómo se llega a liderar un proyecto europeo que te permite investigar en esa frontera del conocimiento? Hermenegildo nos cuenta todo eso, pero también comparte algo más personal: su forma de pensar la investigación, la importancia de la intuición, cómo se combina riesgo y método, y por qué sigue emocionándose con un nuevo experimento, incluso después de décadas de trabajo en el laboratorio.Si te interesa la ciencia como proceso creativo y como aventura de largo recorrido, este episodio te ofrece una visión privilegiada desde dentro.Temas tratados:– Qué es la catálisis y por qué está en casi todo lo que usamos– Qué son los MXenes y por qué entusiasman tanto a la comunidad científica– Cómo se plantea y se gana una ERC Advanced Grant– La dificultad (y el valor) de investigar en materiales inestables– Reflexiones sobre el oficio de investigar: intuición, errores, persistencia y descubrimientoEnlaces mencionados:– HG energy: https://hg-energy.eu/– Instituto de Tecnología Química (ITQ): https://itq.upv.es– Nota de prensa sobre el proyecto ERC DISCOVERY: https://www.upv.es/noticias-upv/noticia-14798-erc-advanced-g-en.html¿Quieres seguir hablando sobre este episodio?Únete a nuestra comunidad de investigadores en WhatsApp:

In this episode, Michael spoke with Courtney Carothers, a professor in the college of Fisheries and Oceans at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. They discussed Courtney's work on "catch share", or individual transferable quota policies in fisheries, indigenous fisheries management systems, and the negative impacts that catch shares have often had on indigenous fishers. Catch shares are a dominant panacea being employed by the U.S. government to manage our shared fisheries resources, and a important critique of them discussed during the interview is the ways in which they prioritize efficiency and profit, lead to rights consolidation, and alienate local users from their traditional livelihoods. Courtney framed this process as being a symptomatic component of the broader processes of forced integration and colonization that has occurred in the U.S. and Canada. They also talked about how collaborative relationships can be built for transdisciplinary work.

Low Code ermöglicht Softwareentwicklung auf einer abstrakteren Stufe. Anders als bei den klassischen Programmiersprachen sind nur wenig Programmierfähigkeiten und -erfahrung notwendig, um erfolgreich Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Low Code Development ermöglicht Entwicklern mit Hilfe von visuellen Tools Logik, Benutzeroberflächen, Datenmodelle oder Geschäftsprozesse zu erstellen. Dies können zum Beispiel vorgefertigte Blöcke sein, die der Entwickler in seiner Anwendung platziert oder auch Logik in Form von Ablaufdiagrammen jeglicher Art. Durch diese simple gemeinsame Basis, die jeder Anwender in einem Unternehmen versteht, vom ungelernten Anwender bis hin zum IT-Spezialisten, ist es jedem möglich Software und Anwendungen zu entwickeln, welche auch einfach zu benutzen sind. Jeder Mitarbeiter kann sich produktiv einbringen. Dies beschleunigt den Entwicklungsprozess sehr stark.

In this interview we get to learn what a Bedfordshire IAG advisor does. I speak with Helen McHugh, an experienced IAG advisor. During the interview, Helen mentions the Children in Need project and Study Programme. The Children in Need project is a 9 session course called “Like It, Live It”. It is funded by Children in Need but is run by Develop. The course helps young people develop their confidence, team working skills and mental wellbeing. Study Programme is a full-time education programme run by Develop where young learners can study towards maths and English qualifications as well as qualifications such as Childcare, ITQ, Introduction to Beauty and Employability. Develop EBP is a company which provides learning courses for a range of ages, but predominately ages 16 - 19. Develop currently has training centres in Bedford, Dunstable, Hitchin and Norwich. (Probably should have covered this in the interview)Techie stuff: This interview was recorded using just a Zoom H4N handy recorder. No external microphones were used; only the Zoom’s internal mic was used. The Zoom was rested on a little chunk of foam beside myself and Helen. We were both sitting around 50cm from the Zoom’s mic. No headphones were used by either myself or Helen to listen to ourselves as we recorded.The advice I read about podcasting says that you should ideally have a microphone for each person involved in the interview, and experts suggest that it is good to use a dynamic cardioid microphone as this will just pick up what a person says and minimise background (ambient) noise.How distracting was the traffic noise for you?The interview took place in a small room beside a busy road. The windows were not double glazed and you hear spells of background noise from the road outside.Despite the problems, as an amateur I was actually quite pleased with the recording, in that afterwards, I could basically hear what was being said and that I had pressed the right buttons on the Zoom during the interview. I also liked just how quick it was to set up the Zoom and do nothing fancy. The introduction to the episode was recorded using a Blue Yeti USB microphone on its cardioid pattern. This section seemed to sound OKish before uploading but when I listen to it on the website I feel that it sounds a little different and not as clear, for some reason.From the interview-skills side of this piece I noticed that my questions were long and quite rambling. In post-production I cut out lots of sections and you may well notice some of the ham-fisted bits. I also actually had to cut out about a whole minute at the start when I went on a nerve-ridden ramble about getting Helen’s surname (McHugh) mixed up with the surname of Bruce Willis’ character (McClane) in the Die Hard films. Classy stuff.I edited the project in Audacity (free audio editing software) – moving some clips and music around, cutting out a few long pauses, adding fade-ins and fade-outs and finally exported the project as a wav file. I then put this wav file through a piece of free software called The Levelator which is recommended by some experts as a way to adjust the audio levels in the podcast. Finally, I converted this updated wav file to be an mp3 file so that it was ready to be uploaded and published. Without the Levelator the interview section of recording sounds very quiet. The downside to using the Levelator is that the traffic noise now sounds louder. The lesson here is to never use this room again with the Zoom recorder and also to experiment with individual cardioid dynamic microphones. Well... it's a start. The experiment continues.....

Verwacht een leuk gesprek wanneer de heren Johan bestoken met vragen over sizing, verwachtingsmanagement en hoe hoog de Wife Appreciation Factor moet zijn om een boek te schrijven. Je vindt de VDI Design Guide, compleet met voorwoord van VMware CTO End User Computing Shawn Bass vanaf begin augustus bij Amazon. Houd ondertussen het twitter account @vdidesignguide in de gaten voor details en meer nieuws!

We don't normally do sequels on ITQ, unless we reviewed an earlier film in the franchise.  Such is the case with Deadpool 2.  Andrew and Phil both liked the first film, but now the house is divided.  Andrew didn't care for the humor-saturated follow-up but Phil found the never-ending meta-qualities to be very amusing.  What do you think?  Is this a good next chapter in the Deadpool universe?

Lynne Ramsay is one of Andrew and Phil's favorite directors, so any new film from her is enough to send ITQ into a tizzy.  Ramsay's new film YOU WERE NEVER REALLY HERE blurs the line between reality and...not.  There are definitely times in this film where it's not clear if something is really happening, and our hosts are cool with that.  Sound and visuals are both used with style, and Phoenix's complex performance is equally arresting.

Subsequent work with Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Baby and the Cash Money Records roster solidified TQ as a creative force who carved a lane for himself amongst his A-List collaborators.   With acclaimed They Never Saw Me Coming LP, his lead single “Westside” catapulted TQ to international fame. In addition to being a Top 15 hit in the United States, it was a Top 10 single in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. Subsequent singles “Bye Bye Baby” and “Better Days” helped pave the way for TQ to sign with Cash Money Records.   While with the New Orleans-based label, he wrote and was featured on a string of gold and platinum albums, including Big Tymers' Hood Rich, Lil Wayne's 500 Degreez, the Baller Blockin' soundtrack; Birdman's Baby aka #1 Stunna, Juvenile's Project English and Hot Boys' Let ‘Em Burn, among others.   Today, the R&B veteran has established himself independently and has made time to get back to making meaningful music.
