Retour la polémique Aya Nakamura et sur ce qu'elle raconte de notre société…. Depuis 3 semaines, la chanteuse pressentie pour la cérémonie d'ouverture des J-O se retrouve au cœur d'une bataille politique entre ceux qui y voient une atteinte à la tradition culturelle française et ceux qui, au contraire, se félicitent d'un choix moderne à l'image d'une France désormais métissée. Alors de quoi cette polémique est-elle le nom ? À 4 mois des J-O, sommes-nous vraiment incapables de nous entendre sur ce qui fait notre identité ?

And today we get to talk with Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills. Barbara Ann is in New Jersey has an interesting story and things that she's doing as a coach and other work that she is doing. And also, I'm going to give it away and she'll talk about it anyway. Barbara has had a couple of bouts with COVID. And actually just got through with one but she has a lot of wisdom about long COVID And actually already and just talking with her before we started this I learned some things I didn't know. And knowledge is always useful thing to have. So Barbara Anne welcome to unstoppable mindset.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 02:12 Thank you so much. I am super happy and honored to be asked to be your guest today. I'm really looking forward to our conversation.   Michael Hingson ** 02:23 Well, then we ought to have one right. So tell me about maybe the the younger barber and growing up and all that let's start there. It's always good as they say to start at the beginning somewhere.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 02:34 Yes. Start at the beginning. So younger Pribram was born in the late 60s to Maryland and Joseph, a biracial couple. So when my parents got married, still wasn't even legal in some states. And I was born right here in New Jersey, Jersey girl my whole life. And my my five foot three Caucasian mom and my six foot three. Black dad, African American reef. Yeah, they met when they were in college. And while my mother's family was very, very not in any way any color in the family tree has recently improved by one to three me my father's family was always very integrated. And I was the first of four children. My mother and dad had me and my sister exactly 16 months apart on purpose. I think that's insane. I can't even imagine doing that these days. And, and then there was three other siblings that would come along the way. One of whom died shortly after birth because of complications. And it was interesting. I grew up in an apartment complex that wasn't then but is now officially designated as what you would call affordable housing. And a small little, I never thought of it as rural growing up, but they call it rural. It was Vineland, New Jersey. Ah, and it actually is the biggest city in the state of New Jersey in terms of land size, all 69 square miles of it. And but definitely in southern New Jersey. And this is at a time when a lot of the highways and systems that exist now didn't even exist in its parts of South Jersey. And it was like its own whole other world. Anybody who has any familiarity with North and South Jersey knows how vastly different the two are the right down to the accents. And you know, we you know, had a good upbringing, the Things were going well, when it's time for me to go to school, because of the time that it was was you talking about early 70s, I was bussed as part of a program to make sure that they were, you know, equally distributing children aka schools. Which was really interesting. When back in the days before there was cell phones, in fact, my parents had a party line. They accidentally put me on the wrong bus. That was fun when you're in kindergarten. Yeah. But probably one of the earliest tragic things that would happen to me what happened when I was seven. And it's interesting, because I, my mom said, I've always been a forward planner, I've always been very rational, but also very even tempered. And she likes to tell stories about how you know, at a time when I was 14 months, I spilled a bowl of popcorn and I sat there at 14 months old, individually picking up each piece of kernel of corn and putting it back in the bowl. And when I was when I started walking it at nine months, and around 1112 months, we were out walking, and I saw a dandy line and I bent over and I pulled it up, I had no idea that would kill it. I picked it up and I sniffed it, and proceeded to put it right back in its exact place where it was. And so all these years later, she still loves to tell that story because I was very methodical and particular and had my routines and my processes. And then 10 days before Christmas, just after my seventh birthday, my father was killed in a car accident. And here was my mother, at the age of 28, widowed with four biracial children, the oldest of whom was seven and the youngest of whom was only had just been born on October 27. And that would be one of many pivots, in terms of that would define my future going forward. Okay, how   Michael Hingson ** 07:09 did you how did your parents, your, your grandparents deal with you? Maybe at the beginning, you said that they on your mom's side, we're not really oriented toward having biracial or any color in the family did that mollify at all especially towards you as you grow older,   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 07:30 not till I was much older. In fact, when my dad died, my grandfather, who was an Episcopal priest, refused to let my grandmother even can be with my mother, her grieving daughter, because as far as he was concerned, she was dead to him.   Michael Hingson ** 07:51 I have just never comprehended, of course, I've been blind my whole life, baby. And I regard it as a blessing. But I've just never understood this whole issue of color, and skin color having any significance to anything. It's just crazy. But   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 08:09 for the most part, it wasn't even a thing until the mid 1800s. In terms of, you know, I can't think of his name right now, because I'm coming off of my long COVID relapse, but a British scientist, was the one who kind of artificially constructed and classified race. Yeah. And there were a number of people, including Alexander Graham Bell, who bought into some of those theories. Yeah. And but before that, it really was just more of a familial designation, in terms of what country you are from and royalty was royalty. So they intermixed all the time. You know, there was how we understand things now really, are an artificial construct, which is one of the foundational pieces of what I do in my work as it relates to civility, inclusion and equity and diversity. But in that time, my grandmother didn't come my aunt didn't come they were in Florida. My dad's family. My dad was the youngest of six and he was a sports person he had played for the Eagles, arm team and he played basketball and everybody knew who he was. And his family stepped up and stepped in by her family was non existent. I would finally meet her sister a few years after that, and we have a good relationship. I only ever met my one uncle on her side once and I have a necklace that's handed down to my mother was. Her maiden name was aptly As in former Prime Minister Attlee of England, and so they were very particular, he was very much. Interestingly, it was almost bad that he married my grandmother. He was very much a white Anglo Saxon Protestant male, who married my mother's mother, my grandmother, credibly beautiful woman, her name was Ruth Fogarty. And like, parents off the boat Irish, her dad was an Irish house in New Orleans. And, and they had three children, and my mother was the oldest of them. And so dad wasn't so thrilled and dad ruled the household. And I finally met my grandmother right before I turned 12, because there's a family necklace that's handed down through the Fogarty family line to the to the oldest female on their 12th birthday. And so she was permitted to come see us and, and transfer that to me. And then right around the time I turned 16, my grandfather decided to have a change of heart, and that he was wrong. And I would meet him a couple of times between 16 and 19. And then when I was 19, he passed us was very awkward, I agreed to go to the funeral for my mother. But that was probably actually one of the biggest fights we ever had to because I had very strong feelings about being forced to go and mourn someone that had done, what I now understood had been the things that he had done over the course of her life in mind. But I, you know, she she said, incredible person. So my mother, who I'm I've ever been, I don't know who it is, but I don't like she tends to be much more private. She watches everything I do. But I don't usually name her for her own privacy reasons. You know, she would raise all four of us on her own, she never remarried, she went back to school, because she dropped out when she married my dad, and then had me, you know, urina. She got married in February of 67. They had me in mid November of 68. So she decided to go back to school, she completed her associate's then her Bachelor's than her Master's. And she went on to teach at the college where she got her nursing degree. And all of that joined the military before age 40, to become a nurse. And for the US Army, reserve corps, so she did a lot of really amazing things on her own, with me, helping out along the way, as the oldest child. So I learned to do a lot of things very young, that I probably wouldn't really be able to do now, in terms of watching siblings, cooking and cleaning, and things like that, but things that were otherwise really common at the time. And another big part of our lives was the church that we raised in. And because the whole family, my dad's family, was involved on both sides, my family were involved in the clergy, but the brother and cousins that we were most close to, went to the church where we went to and so they became a huge support system for my mom. And in a very interesting indoctrination process for me, that I would spend the better part of my teens and early 20s trying to undo. So that's the very early I, you know, we went to a private Christian school on scholarship. And when my mom graduated, they said no more scholarships. So I went to public high school, and did really well. You know, but I felt like I had been kind of thrown into this weird alternative universe where I had been used to being one of the only children of color in an entire school. And now I was in a school that was pseudo integrated. Different kids tended to be tracked based on their intelligence, but also, in part based on their socioeconomic status and, and race. And on my very first day, when I went to go in with the few kids that I didn't know, into the school cafeteria, I was stopped at the door and I was told that only the white kids ate in there, I had to go to the other cafeteria with the black and Spanish kids. And I was like, what, what are you talking about? And they were like, You eaten here. And that that was not something that my high school fixed for almost another 15 years when they finally decided to assign cafeterias, and eliminate a lot of staff. But other than that, I did choir, I did drama, I did all the things that I loved to learn, had its really great friends. And then couldn't afford to go to college. Now that my mom was working, I didn't get enough aid, and I wanted to be a doctor. And so I ended up getting just enough grants to go to community college. And then I went to work full time, and we went to school full time at nights. I went to work for Prudential insurance company, and they paid 90% tuition reimbursement. And I worked there in policyholder services, answering questions for agents for 10 states. Here I was, you know, the ages of 1819 20 ensiling complex insurance questions back when everything was in these little books, we would have to pull the pages out. And to replace them to update them. We covered all of New England and most of the East Coast with the exception of New Jersey and Massachusetts along scope   Michael Hingson ** 16:36 guard. So this was like 1987 88. Yes, exactly.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 16:40 8788 89. And, and then one of the next major pivotal things in my life happens. Having been raised in a very fundamentalist religion, I had never been involved in any kind of a sexual relationship. And I got raped. And what was interesting about it, other than the fact that it was pretty bad and it was somebody I knew, I got angry. And that's, that pivoted me into advocacy. And I became a speaker. I spoke on college campuses, I spoke at my high school. I was like, oh, no, no, no, this is never going to happen to another woman. Right? Yeah. This is just not okay. And, and then I had this whole world of advocacy opened up for me. And it's funny, I'll never forget, I ended up changing my major. Because my political science class and my sophomore year of college, the professor has put a list of all of these different characteristics. He said, Well, what describes a typical politician and he was what in New Jersey, we now call commissioners, but back then we called them freeholders freeholders held land. And we put all these characteristics on a board of what a typical politician is. And he said, Georgia class, he said, Okay, everybody, if you aren't, at least, almost all of them, if not all of these, you never, ever, ever have a chance of holding any kind of high office or elected office in government. And I looked at him in my stereotypical, defiant way, when somebody says I can't do something, and said, Oh, really. And I changed my major to political science that week. And I would later tell him after I graduated from political science honors from what is now Rowan University, with concentrations in pre law and Women's Studies. I would eventually tell him go back and tell him that he was the reason why I changed my major. And he was just so blown away. He's like, Oh, wow, I'm so odd. Really told him why. And guess what, like many politicians, he ended up having an affair with a staffer and losing his his seat and his wife in the process. So I guess he was so much more like, far too many prostitutions back then, than what was listed on the board.   Michael Hingson ** 19:31 Do as I say, not as I do.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 19:35 When I go ahead, no, go ahead. I was gonna say when I finished college, though, my first job right out of college. As I had left Prudential to go back full time to finish, which was good because by the time I got done Prudential no longer existed. They had moved their job offices to Jacksonville and have the office that I would have worked at had I stayed there like so many people said I should. Of course they He told me he really shouldn't leave this great job. And I said, Okay, really well watch me. And so again, I answered an ad in the newspaper. And I ended up going to work for the city of Bridgeton, in my field, actually working for the city in a new role for called the Community Development Block Grant sub recipient monitor. And my job was to create the infrastructure for monitoring funds from a community development block grants that were distributed to organizations in the community as a whole host of other things. And that was the beginning in 1992, of my 31 year career, other than one, brief six year return to insurance after having my son, my otherwise 31 year career in community and economic development.   Michael Hingson ** 20:59 So you got married along the way?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 21:02 I did, but not yet. I stayed for a while. Yeah. Which is a really great question. I, I just wasn't ready. Yeah, I, I was in this I was in this weird world of, I was too white for most black boys. I was too dark for most white boys. I was not Latina. But that was what I was most often mistaken for, because of my skin tone and where I grew up. And, and I was often just a novelty, somebody wanted to be able to say that they had tried being with a black girl. And in 2012, when I was 23 years old, that culminated actually, in a second, much more serious rape scenario with a guy that I had been seeing. Who knew about the first one, we'd had conversations about the fact that his sister had been through something similar. And then myself and a friend went to a party at his house, and they, I didn't even drink, because I didn't want to be in that situation. And yet, I felt like I was drunk. And it didn't. We didn't talk about things like being date rape drugs, and things like that. But yeah, it was, it was bad. And I remember bits and pieces, and they were just kind of joking that they all wanted to know what it was like to be with a black girl. And, um, so I was very protective of myself in many ways for many years. And when I met my husband, I was in a, I was long distance seeing someone he was seeing somebody else, we could care less. And then we would be reintroduced a couple years later. And I was at a point where I was like, I just not I can't get involved with. I've had all these bad experiences with white guys and black guys. I just know, I was seeing a guy from Puerto Rico at the time. And as my husband likes to say, he just had to convince me that he was the only thing missing from my life. So he did what every other guy who wants to be with somebody does, he became a really good friend. And then we would end up finally getting married three years after our first date, which was a disaster, by the way, because our first date was literally the day of the very first Million Man March. Oh, and I said to him, What were you thinking we had ended up getting into a political conversation and realized we were about as diametrically opposed as one could be. And that's what he thought about. What was he thinking when he asked out a young black urban professional, he said he didn't know because he didn't realize I was black. He thought I was lucky not then. And then one of the jokes of that evening that still gets repeated to this day, I said, oh, and I suppose you haven't marched? And I suppose you've marched in a militia too. And he says, well, not lately. Now he was he had been on the north on a Civil War reenactment militia militia, but my husband would really appreciate your sense of humor. So no, in spite of that disastrous first date, next month, we will have been married for 25 years and together for 28. Any he was so everything I was not looking for at the time, which is probably exactly why it worked because I after all of those other experiences I had decided to find out. And we did, we got married. And, in fact, I was executive director of a nonprofit housing organization at the time, and it was selling, it's celebrating its 25th anniversary. So we postponed our talk about understanding guy, he's always supported me and said, You go be you. We actually postponed our honeymoon, so that we could get the anniversary banquet and celebration out of the way, and then go on our honeymoon without having that hanging over our heads. So he knew what kind of person he was getting together with. And he was he was fine with that. And so yeah, and we would go on, and I would have, we would have one son. And that was another pivot. This year, I was, at this point, I'm now running an organization that the nonprofit that I was with helped start, I'm used to like going around the country, and conducting training classes in housing counseling, and homeownership education for housing counselor is for the federal government on going all these great places. And then along comes this son, who God purposefully gave me to prove I have absolutely no control over anything. I remember Oh, my gosh, it was it was something else. And remember, and of course, you know, being a slightly older mom, at this point, I'm 33. Having a geriatric pregnancy just didn't sound right. At all, I'm like, Oh, my God, I've I've tested I'm sitting there in tears one day, like, how is it that I could testify and in front of the state legislature and congressional hearings that I can't get this kid to go to sleep? What is wrong?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 27:10 got through it. I went back to the insurance industry. took a pause. 911 happened. I remember you. I remember seeing interviews with you on Larry King. And you know, one of the reasons why we chose our son's name, Colin, which is, the original Greek word for courage was after that happened, because we had, as you probably I know, you can relate based on having heard your story. I worked in Trenton and so there were people, a lot of people would commute by train. So someone I grew up with was lost. Very, very close friend of ours, his cousin was lost. But then there were other people that were actually supposed to be there that I was friends with, for various reasons that, like interviews were cancelled. A friend of mine who worked in Jersey City was supposed to cross over to work for Wall Street Journal, he was supposed to be there that morning, it got postponed to that afternoon. So many people that had so many close brushes. And so Colin seemed like a really good name. And, but it also drastically affected our funding as a nonprofit, because all the organizations where we were basically redirected already committed funds to World Trade Center efforts. And which is why to this day, I'm still firmly believe in cash accounting, and not the cruel accounting. And I went back into the insurance industry for six years. And it was fun. And I was underwriting manager for a company here in New Jersey. And and then, we unmerged with our parent company merged with another company and a whole bunch of changes started happening. And I ended up going through my next major pivot. I decided to leave a role where I was having a lot of difficulty with someone who was actively sabotaging my work. And so I decided to take a lateral move left a team of 19, several of whom were in extreme tears to help go create another department. And that behavior continued constant, what we would now call bullying but there was no such thing as bullying in the workplace. Right? And that would culminate in him. physically assaulting me on the job in a conference room full of leaders in front of witnesses. And he herniated all the discs in my neck. And what was really interesting about that is all of the other things that I had been through. They were emotional, and it was easy to recover. But the physical injury that I went in for a while I, my neck got everything swelled up so much I couldn't walk, I couldn't feel my feet. I couldn't function it was was incredibly painful. All of my C spine discs, were either damaged or bulged. And you would think, with so many people having witnessed it, it would be a no brainer, he would get fired. That's not what happened. Yeah, I was gonna ask. Yeah. That's not what happened at all. I would later find out through notes that he was giving a an a one time final warning, but this person had had a history of inappropriate behavior. And everybody would just chalk it up as to being that person. And so he had been there 20 years I had been there, three, and they decided that I was the one that needed to go. And they did what we used to call an insurance terms and other corporate terms called circle the wagons, protect their jobs. And that got ugly, very, very ugly. And Lisa Halloran was my hero. She was my, she taking the job was supposed to be a director was downgraded to a manager, which then downgraded me from management to consultant. And so she had only been there six months when this happened, she had transferred from another office. And in full integrity, she stood by me. Even when she personally was threatened, she stood by me. One point, she was told by the Vice President, I'm trying to save our jobs, you need to get in line. And she said, I would rather lose my job and be able to sleep at night, and do what you're asking me to do. And fortunately, for me, even though that left knee permanently partially disabled, I was able to find specialists, they did pay for one disc to be replaced. I did, New Jersey has binding arbitration, and the company pays for it. So there's not really much of an incentive for a binding arbitrator to actually rule in the favor of an employee. And they had argued in court that assaults were not not considered eligible for arbitration, but then tried to argue, in arbitration, that assaults belonged in court and the judge saw right through it and sent them all and joined everybody together, inviting arbitration and what was interesting is they lost. Wow, they lost and what what the ruling basically was was that the assault aside the way I was treated, including having ignored blatantly and openly admitted to ignoring their own grievance procedures process, that they had made a bad situation worse. And the funny thing is, then they then filed an appeal. At which point the arbitrator scathingly said, what part of binding arbitration Didn't you understand when you asked for binding arbitration? And they would eventually shut down all New Jersey operations. I, there's lots of rumors, I won't speculate. But yeah, almost everybody lost their jobs, all the way up to the top, including the New Jersey president. And I went back into government nonprofit work, and that's where I've been ever since.   Michael Hingson ** 34:26 You know, it's the insurance industry is a fascinating place. The reason I said early on that you joined in the insurance world in 1987 1988. Something like seven years before around 1980, maybe 1979. Probably 1980. Somebody in the National Federation of the Blind, which is the largest consumer organization of blind people, was at a meeting of insurance people Sitting next to a person from Prudential and said to this person, I think it also had to do with the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, but anyway said, you know, insurance companies won't provide life insurance for people who are blind. And this guy said, Yeah. And the person who I knew said, Well, why don't you do everything that you do based on evidence to actuarial statistics and evidentiary data? And you have mathematical models for everything? And the guy said, Well, absolutely. That's how we make all of our decisions. And my friends said, Well, can we see the evidence that says that blind people are a higher risk? And the guy said, Sure, no problem. Six months went by, without any indication that there was anything. And finally my friend said, so where's the evidence? And the guy from Prudential said, Well, we were working on it. We haven't found it yet, but it's there. And my friend said, you don't have any do you? You have been discriminating against blind people and other persons with disabilities is it eventually expanded. But you've been doing that simply based on prejudice, and a mistaken belief that we're a higher risk without any evidence to show for it. And on the other end, we as blind people know, we're not a higher risk. Well, what that eventually led to was a campaign in every State of the Union at the time, I was living in Massachusetts. So I ran the effort for the state of Massachusetts for the National Federation of blind in Massachusetts. But to get every state to pass a law that said, you can't discriminate against blind or other persons with physical disabilities, unless you can provide actuarial statistics or or evidentiary data. And to this day, of course, no one's been able to because it doesn't exist. Yeah. It wasn't scientific at all. It was prejudice. Yep.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 37:00 Absolutely. Absolutely. And my husband had worked in that industry for a while. And yeah, and it both in the life insurance, but also in health and also in property and casualty. To be honest, at one point from in 95, and 96, I had gone back to insurance company, because I was recruited from a nonprofit specifically to help with a pilot program where they were reentering the urban environment to because they had stopped insuring in most cities, urban environments, because of flat roofs, and the fire risk that they support that they had. And my boss, an amazing person, his name was, Andre Howell had conceived of this idea that if we worked with people to help mitigate risk, we think that they'll actually perform well. And he was right. And we worked in a very specific target targeted neighborhood of Philadelphia, and offered like free inspections, and all kinds of things. And, and part of my job was to track the performance of that. Now, this was for all state at the time, and I will name them because at that time, they had lost more money in Hurricane Andrew than they had made in the history of the company. Yeah. And this is a program that they would eventually roll out across all the states. And I had been serving on the National Insurance Task Force which dealt with access, availability, and affordability, affordability of insurance and regional or in a metropolitan as well as rural areas, because there's a big issue with rural areas too. But interestingly, a division of theirs decided not long after I got there that they were going to start mass canceling and a non renewing policies in the state of New Jersey. And the actuarial logic behind it was they looked at all of the people who had had not an accident, apparently you get an accident every five years, they looked at all the people who had not had an accident within a five year period determined that they were due and decided that they were going to use a loophole in a tooth what was called the two for one law. For every two g non renewed you could take one new customer and they just started, guess what group hasn't had a car accident within a five year timeframe. Disabled people, seniors and those who only use vehicles for pleasure use. So here I was in the government relations divisions of a company whose state subsidiary was mass, non renewing disabled and non working individuals. We had agents that were losing clients like 90 a week, and of course, those individuals were taking other business with them, I've never. And this is on the heels of them having gotten in trouble because somebody had made a very inappropriate comment about why they wouldn't cover repairs to a property for a same sex couple. So it was a rough period for them that they would eventually overcome. But really just, that was some of the eye opening for me in terms of why my advocacy needed to be so much broader than just around women. So   Michael Hingson ** 40:28 is that what sort of really led you into dealing with the whole issue of inclusion and equity and so on?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 40:36 Yes, because I had now at this point, I had worked. in Bridgeton, I had worked in Cherry Hill Township, I had worked in Camden, I had worked in Philadelphia, looking at all of this, I'm seeing all this happening, I'm looking at people use numbers in ways that they should never have to use them because they had their own proprietary insurance score. And I had to know that model. So I had to know what went into it, so I could teach it. And I realized that the problem was so much bigger than even the different things that I had in my life that were intersectional in terms of being a female being a woman of color, you know, I wasn't even dealing with the disability yet at that point. And, but just other things, and, and hearing the way people would talk about people, as groups and status as individual human beings.   Michael Hingson ** 41:34 You know, it's, oh, go ahead.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 41:36 No, go ahead.   Michael Hingson ** 41:37 It's amazing, just how, as I said, Before, people do as I say, not as I do, how people behave, you know, and most people don't think about their own disabilities, all of you who have eyesight, and I've said it several times on this podcast, have a disability as well, your light dependent, just wait till the power goes out in the building, and you got to go off and try to scrounge for a flashlight or a smartphone. The thing is that, because so many people think that eyesight is really the only game in town, our society collectively, has worked really hard to make light on demand, a fact of life everywhere. And so we've spent basically 145 years developing this technology to make light on demand available, pretty much in a ubiquitous sort of way. So most of the time, you have light on demand until you don't like when I was in a hotel in March. And I've seen it other times since then, before being a building and settling, the power goes out and people start to scream and they don't know what to do. And the fear comes in, and I'm sitting there going so what's the problem? The the issue is, you guys are light dependent. And the reality is disability should not mean a lack of ability, because it's not. Disability is a characteristic that every single person on the planet has. And what we need to truly understand and do is to recognize that the characteristic manifests itself in different ways for different people. It doesn't mean it's not there. So let light cover up your disability, but you still have it. And you can say all day long, you don't. But you do. But but we're too arrogant sometimes to really address that and deal with it. And it's so unfortunate, when that happens so much in our world today. But but the fact is, that's that's the way it is. And so I talk about it, probably more than some people would like on the podcast, because I want the message to be heard by everyone. That disability does not mean lack of ability, and everyone has that characteristic in one way or another. For my part.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 43:51 Yeah, go ahead. Go ahead. No, no, no, I was gonna say AB so lute Li and I loved hearing you talk about it, on the podcast that I listened to in the speeches that I listened to. Because disability disabled individuals are among some of the most discriminated individuals in this country. And that's planet. And, you know, when you were talking about what happened to you as a child in terms of what the doctors told your parents, you know, a lot of people don't realize that in this country in this country, till as recently as 1979. They were sterilizing women to keep certain women from being able to reproduce, because it will pollute the gene pool with disabled disability character, and   Michael Hingson ** 44:37 there were courts who backed that up. Yes. And supported eugenics like that. Yes, exactly.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 44:43 And so, you know, I mean, depending on it had I didn't born in a different state, God knows what would have happened. Yeah. But you know, in California was one of the biggest ones. And, you know, a lot of people don't know that because we don't talk About those parts of our history, but whether I was paying attention, I'm really good at listening. And I realized that it's naturally human beings tend to want to group things. They all want to be seen as individuals, but they want to put everybody else in groups. And you could say, you know, people talk about, you know, different immigrants being stupid. I'm sorry, How many languages do you speak? Because they may be struggling in English. But most, most people I know, who have immigrated here know at least one if not five, or six. My Spanish is terrible got Mexico, to for my honeymoon. I mean, people who have all these diverse people, we are all wonderfully and perfectly made, depending on whether or not you believe in God, we've written to flee imperfectly made in God's image. Yeah. And if the Bible says God makes no mistakes, who are we to think that any one else is any less? More superior, less, less superior? Or that we're more superior than anyone else?   Michael Hingson ** 46:19 Well, except that in Oh God, George Burns said that he made a mistake, because he made avocado pits too large. Yeah. Oh, my God to sneak that one in.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 46:34 Which is funny, though, only. But   Michael Hingson ** 46:37 I hear exactly what you're saying. The fact of the matter is, and kids especially I was talking with someone earlier today. And we were we were doing another interview, and we were talking about children and growing up and how kids are, are fun loving, they are full of adventure. And they don't have all of these agendas. And it's so unfortunate that we teach this in so many ways to children, and they grow up with these these horrible attitudes to a large degree, and there's no need for it. Children aren't evil. But we make them that way.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 47:17 Well, we could say that about a lot of things, right? I mean, a thing is a thing. It's, it's how we use it. Now, children are born a blank slate, it's what we write on it. Right. And the younger, we can undo that the better. And which is a huge part of you know, you know, like I said, my third pivot was was my most recent pivot after going to grad school. Because I was determined, I was going to get that master's degree before I turned 50. And then getting long COVID. I was like, Okay, you're still here. What are you going to do with this? And I said, well, since grad school, I've been talking about it, because here I am this black female who's been, you know, the first list the first you know, first black female here at first black female there because I was lighter skin, I was palpable, which gets into a whole other issue. And I didn't say quote, unquote, sound black or growing up, the black kids would say your family talks white. Half of my family is white, all my cousins are all interracial. That was my way my dad's family was three possible shade. So it was just normal to me. But then in the post Obama era, it was a little bit more normalized. For a while, oh, if I had $1 for every time somebody said, Oh, she speaks so well. I'd be very, very rich. Well,   Michael Hingson ** 48:45 if I had $1, for every time somebody said, you're amazing. And of course, what they're really saying is, especially for a blind person, you know.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 48:53 And so after getting COVID, and realizing I was still here, and seeing the spotlight shine on all things that were broken with our health care system, and then some, for anybody who was a person of color, who had an existing disability. Some of the things that I experienced. I actually had to I was like, Mom, you deal with the hospital, you're a nursing professor, you're Caucasian. They're not listening to me. You just deal with it, because they're not listening to me. Because there's so many of us continue to have to deal with ongoing symptoms before anybody would acknowledge that that was a real thing. The and so many people who are in the disability community, we're right in there with us. We're all in there together finding each other and social media and Facebook groups, because no one would listen to us. Mm. That's when I was like, Okay, it's, you're still here, you're here for a reason, it's time to get vocal about everything that's broken in this country about how we treat each other in general. And as the person of color in many organizations back when it was still called affirmative action. And having been part of integrating teams and corporate and government agencies, and seeing the narrative shift. Over the years, I was already getting concerned. And then when everybody was exposed to what so many of us knew, in the death of George Floyd and others, while everybody else said, Okay, stand up, this is a time for celebration, people are finally going to live, learn, change is going to happen, companies are issuing pledges everywhere, we're finally going to get the change that's been coming. And me, I'm on a webinar, still in very deep throes of long COVID with massive cognitive issues. And I said, here's my concern. And I meant to say backlash. I said, the black lashes coming. And that stuck. I see, I see, give it time. People know, when things aren't authentic. People know, when change is being shoved down their throat, people don't like being told that they're responsible for things that they didn't have happen. And saying, Now, you know, how it feels to be me is not the right response for that. And people started reading books about anti racism and all these things I said, I'm telling you, and then I repeat it, I said, I'm gonna keep using the word the black lashes coming since 2021, on record in a webinar. And now we have what we're seeing in Florida, and other states, and book burnings, and Supreme Court decisions. And all of these things as the pendulum swings back from one side to the other. And companies are eliminating diversity, equity inclusion programs, and people are leaving this fairly new kind of practice, for lack of better words. I mean, they've been, it's been slowly been evolving from diversity, diversity, inclusion, diversity, equity. And, and I've been saying for eight years, we're doing it all wrong. doing it all wrong. At no point, in over 20 years, if I ever brought a new hire into a situation without first addressing what needed to be addressed in house to create the environment that would make it possible for them to succeed, we should be doing it differently. And then, of course, after my assault, I was like, we have a serious civility issue. Just in terms of me, you can only legislate how people treat each other so much. But we have serious civility issues going on in workplaces that aren't being addressed, for all of the wrong reasons, across different groups. And it's time that we get our houses in order in terms of civility, then focus on creating the inclusive environment that it should be, then look at the equity issues within that environment, then you bring in the diversity hires that you want to bring in to help your company capitalize on the 30% return on investment that most companies that are diverse actually experience when they are run properly. In a truly, you know, culture add way, and then everybody can succeed. Otherwise, they're just hiring somebody that person comes in, they can't function, they quit. Everybody throws up their hands and says, Oh, well, we tried it didn't work, move on.   Michael Hingson ** 53:46 Tell me about purpose, build solutions and evolutions, if you would.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 53:49 Sure. It's a purpose built solutions and evolutions while I was in grad school, and I've been doing coaching internally and externally, since 1997. And I was asked, in grad schools, what as part of one of my classes to come up with a two or three word way to describe what I am from a professional standpoint. And I described myself as a Resource Navigator. And because so many of my roles involved, either giving the answers or putting people into the direction where they could find the answers. And so I had been doing everything that you're not supposed to do as a business as a side hustle. And Maryam with long COVID I go ahead, I finally get my international coaching Federation certification that I've been putting off for 12 years. And my coach says, When you get to start a business, you've helped like 1000s of others when you can actually do it yourself. And I figured, okay, so put was filled solutions and evolutions was originally going to be purpose filled solutions and evolutions navigators. But I've refiled the service mark to drop the the navigators, even though I still use it. Solutions navigator was already taken. So I was like, well, everything I do is coaching around the purpose. Once your why what is your core purpose? I know mine, mine is helping others figure out theirs, and then achieve it. And after about three weeks of analysis, paralysis, and finally settled on purpose built solutions, and evolutions, a company that would offer the coaching that I had been doing, but also capitalize on my years of experience in various leadership roles, from supervisor up to Executive Director, as well as my Masters of Science and executive leadership and all that I had learned in grad school with a big focus on fixing what I felt was broken with what I call civility, inclusion, equity and diversity. And my company's turned to in June. And I have a team of consultants that support me, and a young woman that I hired from a program that I served as a leadership coach in breathe and shout out to Braven, which is a fellowship program for college students. I brought her in as an intern, and then hired her as my team. And she was a young woman who came here at the age of three, as part of her parents trying to escape Mexico. And she's DACA. And she's going through the citizenship process. And she couldn't find a job in the DEI space. And so we after a number of things, I asked her apologize for the parking. After a number of meetings, I asked her, Okay, we've had all these conversations about what I feel is wrong with the tape all of the information that I gave you, and then I want you to go and I want you to research and I want you to come back and tell me how you would redo my inclusion, equity and diversity program. And she came back. And she said, I think we need to start with mental health and physical disabilities. So this young woman who herself was an immigrant, who had was given carte blanche to look at everything that we should be looking at as part of a program that focuses on inclusion, equity and diversity, had every reason to throughout her life to come back with any number of options. And that's what she came back with. And I said, Okay, would you like a job as consultant? And how would you like to help me take take the lead and developing this program, and that's how paving the way to civility, inclusion, equity and diversity was born. Wow.   Michael Hingson ** 58:09 Well, that is pretty cool. And, and you're even making enough to pay her and everything, huh?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 58:14 I am. That's a blessing. Unfortunately, it works out she's she's part time consultant. She just had her and her husband just had their second baby. And she's on maternity leave right now. But we did our first official full public offering of the program in June, it was very well received, people were blown away. They learned things, of course, that they were never taught and about everything from how the messages are even being manipulated to you know, you know why it's so important to see every person as an individual being and someone who I love Louis Brandeis Griggs was the one who I stole the spelling of it from because I would always say people want to be human beings. And he would always capitalize the B E. In being and so paving the way to civility, inclusion, equity and diversity, a new way of be in, in workplace and in life is our our most comprehensive flagship training program, who   Michael Hingson ** 59:24 have been some of the people who had the most influence on you as you're going through life.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 59:31 My mom obviously has been one. I mentioned a couple of Lisa Halloran who stood by me when she had everything to risk. I have to ride or die. Best Friend's one. Unfortunately. Kathy Jagger passed actually. It'll be here next week. She was also a rape survivor and we met when I was 19. She was a little bit older too. She was 32. And we bonded and she was my best friend and mentor in so many different ways. She was the reason I went to work at Prudential. We went through all kinds of things together. And you know, she will she I referred to her as one of the greatest loves of my life. And the other one, her name is Maria Callahan, Cassidy, who she relocated to an amazing new position at Richmond University only weeks before Kathy passed. So I lost I fortunately didn't lose Maria, it's, it's hard because she's not here. But these are both people that I've known since my teens and have definitely shaped who I am. My son, actually, I've learned so much from him. My son is neurodiverse. He likes to say he's not on the spectrum. He broke the spectrum. Well, that's can and and, and he is hysterical and funny and incredibly talented and incredibly brilliant. And helping navigate the public schools where we live. And watching him continue to still get back up even when he was pushed down. Because in our school district, if you are not in the box, you're basically out of luck. So we had to get an attorney for our son when he was only in third grade, to fight for his rights, and the he knows himself. And really, his biggest challenge is he has something called dysgraphia. He can recite things verbatim, but you could give him that same thing to copy, and he struggles to copy it. And that was a very difficult educational experience for him. But now he's a mechanic, he's training to be a mechanic, he wants to own his own mechanic shop, he has a lovely girlfriend, Collins girlfriend is Ariel, they've been together since they were 14 and 16. And now they are 19 and 21. Going on 20 and 22. And she is the daughter I would have chosen. I call her the daughter I got to choose. And I've learned so much because of her a lot of her upbringing is very similar to mine, they say we've we're very careful to make sure it doesn't get weird. But they say you end up with somebody very similar to your parent. Ariel and I have definitely have a lot in common and and then I would be remiss if I didn't say my husband because even though we have a definitely have our different political beliefs. He has really just unleashed me. He, one thing he stands very firm on is equal pay for women after watching some of the experiences that I go through and he is constantly up, go do it. You got to do this, you got to speak up up, you've been offered a show. I should mention Joe Cole, Antonio, my coach, she is the one who did push me off the cliff to get my show by saying I'm booking you on a local talk show. So that you have two weeks, you have a couple of weeks to get ready to go announced your business is finally open. That's the other reason why purpose filled solutions and evolutions came in. But these are some really all unique but very interesting teachers in my life. So   Michael Hingson ** 1:03:36 tell me really quickly if you would about your talk show.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 1:03:39 My talk show was an offshoot of Joe pushing me off the cliff, ironically, and we joke because Joe is my husband. But Joe is my coach and also probably one of my closest friends at this point. To Joe to Joe's once God wants J O. And Jo booked me on this talk show called Morning Coffee and gave me a couple of weeks. She said I know you can incorporate a business within 72 hours. I've seen you do it. You're going to do it. And so sure enough, on July 2 of 2021, I went in there. My business was two weeks old. And I announced and introduced myself and my one intern to the world. Somebody else who my son's girlfriend and told them about what I was looking to do and how I was going to change the world and the narrative and be a coach and offer services that I couldn't offer in my day job. And they came back to me and said the response to your episode was so amazing. Do you want to do a show? I was like, I was like I've always been the person on answering the questions or writing for government officials who are answering the questions. I've never been on that side of the mic. They said, Well, what do you think I said, Let me think about it. And I was originally going to call my blog, what the why? Kind of like instead of WTF, WT w. And I said, I have an idea. If you give me full control over who my guests are, would you be interested in doing a show called What the Why, and it would be conversations with diverse leaders from all walks of life, all races, genders, disabilities, ages, and I would interview them about what their purpose in life was and how they figured it out. And the station manager said, huh, yeah, let's do it. And so right now I'm on a brief hiatus because the station is in the middle of a move, but I'm in my second season. Of what the why with barber and and I have, I'm hoping to have you on in like, third season because you are so friggin awesome. And not because you're blind. You're just freaking awesome. Period. You just amazing. I'm completely and utterly amazing. But I have interviewed the smallest of businesses. My oldest guests had been in their 80s. My youngest recently was eight. He is a he's a math genius who video of him doing complex math at the age of three went viral. He was invited to join MENSA fours. Mom submitted it and he was accepted at age five. He and She both have long COVID Cynthia, shout out to Cynthia ad Nagin her brilliant son, Aiden. They're both brilliant. And she founded a health equity agency. And he is officially the paediatric spokesperson. He does not know he does not know his IQ. So cute. He had literally just turned eight a couple of weeks before I interviewed him in August. And one second, he's telling me what I need to understand about quantum singularities. And then the next second is holding up pieces of clay saying look at the ribbon I made. And he's what's funny about the interview we did is all three of us were having a level of a COVID flare up. So all three of us were having cognitive challenges. So   Michael Hingson ** 1:07:24 it was like a fun show.   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 1:07:25 It was fun. But you know, when you're with an eight year old, you roll with it. Yep. And we just kind of laugh with but he's, he's amazing. He is training to be a chess champion, because COVID has affected his ability to do outdoor sports. And he's homeschooled with a pod of other little young geniuses like Kim. And but I got to talk with the Sunni meet. One of the people I got to interview was the biker from the village people, ah, and the first woman to be the president of the National Association of government guaranteed lenders and, you know, some local elected officials. But then like, I found out a whole side to my hairdresser. And, and his story as a small business owner who's getting ready to hand it off to his daughter, now that he's in his 60s and I know what his journey was like and how his grandparents stood behind him as a black straight male wanting to do hair.   Michael Hingson ** 1:08:28 There you go. So you have lots of lots of people. I have one more question for you. This is a very crucial question. How tall are you?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 1:08:38 five foot six.   Michael Hingson ** 1:08:40 And how tall is your husband?   Barbara Anne Gardenhire-Mills ** 1:08:42 five foot eight.   Michael Hingson ** 1:08:44 Ha we did not follow in our parents footsteps.

Une question qui peut paraître surprenante : quel est le point commun entre la récente psychose autour des punaises de lit, les appels aux boycott des J-O 2024 et les étoiles de David taguées à Paris ? Hé bien les 3 résultent de manipulations venues de l'étranger… Alors comment comprendre ces opérations dont le but est de semer le doute et d'accentuer nos divisions ? Les régimes autoritaires nous mènent-ils une guerre informationnelle que nous n'avons pas su (ou pas voulu) voir ? Comment nous défendre sans renier nos valeurs ? On en débat avec : David COLON, Historien, professeur à Sciences Po Paris, auteur de « La Guerre de l'information - Les États à la conquête de nos esprits » aux éditions Tallandier (21.09.23) Elsa VIDAL, Journaliste, rédactrice en chef de la rédaction en langue russe de RFI Nicolas QUÉNEL, Journaliste, auteur de « Allô, Paris ?

Make your truckle a little bit nor for all just grow together and move through space and time. Zoo zombie, and if you don't know what zoo zombie means, it was a very a homosexual sounding way of saying the word tuzamin, which means together in German. How funny is that that tuzamin? That sounds like you know a medieval torture device or something like that, but it means together.  5 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:19,580 So yeah, thank you for tuning in my name is Rodney Smith, your humble narrator, and let's dive into it. I saw a video this morning, right? There's a video going around of this bus which it looks like the bus is heading back to the UK carrying migrants or something like that probably, but I don't know. Maybe I'm just being racist  6 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:20,820 and  7 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:51,080 but the thing is, you see all these just you know, pussy granola, liberal white people standing in front of the bus trying to stop the bus from going and so what these people are are climate protesters? Okay, and the thing about climate protesters is they are a really, really, really bad image for the fact of climate change. I'm not even denying climate change. Okay, I'm not educated on the subject enough to even debate with it I'm gonna put my chips with the guys who are actual scientists.  8 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:51,880 Okay,  9 00:02:52,720 --> 00:03:23,620 the Republicans like to call everything a conspiracy theory and there's a lot of mainstream conspiracy theories, but as you know, shit like the flat Earth or that. Humans have no impact on the world at all and low, low, low I don't know. I get kind of like weird, scared like I'm going to trust the people with the science degrees who study the Earth for a living more than I'm going to trust the people who have invested interest in oil. You know what I mean and I don't want an electric car. Don't get me wrong. I don't want it. I don't want it. I don't like electric cars.  10 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,600 I want to step on a gas and hear that big rumble, but  11 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:59,240 these climate protesters did. They make me want to go out and buy a diesel F 3. 50 and roll call because they just make me want the planet to be engulfed and smoke. They're just such a bad face for climate change. And how is it? Because here's where it gets me kind of skeptical? How is it the climate change is this thing where it's hard for me to really reject it? But then when I look at the people who are most involved with them like these people are fucking morons, they're standing, they're going  12 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,560 stop,  13 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:21,240 stop standing in front of this bus trying to stop cars with their hands like do they not realize that a fucking car can tow a boat? So what do you think a bus filled with 60 people you really think a bunch of and these people are sitting down in front of the bus okay, these people are sitting in front of the bus and they go. There's people in the street  14 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,300 you idiot,  15 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:29,900 so they're calling the bus driver and idiot. It's like you're the idiot. You think the bus is going to stop and you're sitting in the street and you think you can stop  16 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:30,980 the bus,  17 00:04:31,400 --> 00:05:12,140 especially you know you've seen. I guess the difference is if it would have been like a like a BLM rally or something like that, they least would have been smart and thrown a brick through the windshield of the bus and yank the bus driver out and beat the shit out of them. That's how you stop the bus. You don't just stand the gun. Oh my God oh, you're gonna hurt the activists bro. You're standing in the street and plus how was stopping a car? How was a car just sitting in the road idling right? Like a big bus engine? God, I don't even know what the fuck type of engine is in a commercial bus. Right? A passenger bus considering they got a hall all these fucking burger eating whales around. You think that things got some serious horsepower. Okay  18 00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:14,500 and they gotta haul.  19 00:05:15,120 --> 00:06:13,880 They gotta haul all the poor fat white people around and why is it poor people are. I guess it's cause fast food is cheap, but vegetables are cheaper than fast food, you know. I mean, that's why I don't like fat people like if. You can't even control what you put in your mouth. How the fuck am I gonna trust you then anyways so the bus has a lot of power. Obviously right? So you get these skinny soy white people. They want to go stand in front of the bus and stop the bus from going anywhere and you think that is gonna tell the oil companies to stop drilling offshore or that's gonna tell the auto manufacturers to stop making cars, or that's gonna like shut down the beef industries because the cow farts allegedly are causing way more damage to the ozone layer. Then Leonardo to caprio's private jet, or you know all the celebrities going back and forth from epstein's Island which we will never see the logs of. We will see everything about Trump, Andrew Tate, Alex Jones, all these people who are just saying mean things we'll never see anything about the Epstein Islands list  20 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:56,540 because they're gonna be distracted telling us about January 6 Brieters and the hilarious thing about that okay, the people that are moan. I'm not agreeing with January 6. That was a stupid thing. As soon as I saw I was like, oh my god, what are these people doing? But also that was pent up anger from watch and left wing protests for over a year. So that's one thing people like to throw to the side that a week before the entire fucking city of D. C. Was on fire. People protesting the cops and then as soon as we pulled the cops out everywhere just went to shit. Look at San Francisco and all these like big liberal cities, but anyways the people that were the most worked up about January 6. Ironically, a lot of these people are really citing with Palestine  21 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:57,660 and  22 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:04,540 not so much Palestine even but Hamas right? Like those are 2 separate entities and what Hamas did was go and  23 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,160 over  24 00:07:06,160 --> 00:08:05,940 try to overthrow another region and they went in and they slaughtered civilians. So if you're more upset about a couple rednecks putting their feet on Nancy pelosi's office, you know, on her desk. If you're more upset about the rednecks putting their feet on Nancy pelosi's desk, then you are about terrorists taking gliders into a music festival and slaughtering a bunch of kids. There's something wrong with you. Um, I really didn't see the, but it makes sense. It makes sense while these like really left wing people are sighting with the Hamas shit because at the heart of it they're all just kind of terrorists that wanna blame everything on everybody else. Like do the Israelis treat them kind of shitty? Yes, they obviously do, and I don't know the depths of it. But the Hamas people are obviously bad. The same way all these fucking antifa people and stuff are bad, you know the antifa people who leave their mother's basements to go and riot and then make racial tensions. Even way worse should they don't understand about  25 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:16,900 going around and uh inciting? And I don't understand. I don't understand the left wing immunity with violence in this country. I don't understand how  26 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:18,080 it  27 00:08:18,080 --> 00:09:10,080 it just doesn't make any sense. Like imagine like even right now when you see like these pro Palestine rallies where they're going around and there they're burning Israeli flags. Imagine if there was one person wearing a Trump hat in that crowd? Is there burning? Is really flexy like ah, the fucking the Nazis are back at it, you know, cause everybody likes to call everybody a Nazi that they don't agree with, but in this case you're persecuting the the the J O o's the thing I'm even too scared to say, which I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't think there's a more sensitive group of people on Earth than the J O o's because yes, they've been persecuted. Yes, they've gone through terrible things. Obviously we all know about that, but they're also at the same time the most privileged group on the planet, and if you even mention them right, if you even say the name like what happened Kong? A you can pretty much say things about every group of people  28 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:10,880 but  29 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,700 which you should be able to like we should be able to talk about things,  30 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:17,560 but yeah,  31 00:09:17,560 --> 00:09:26,740 you say something about the J O o's and some weird shit starts happening, but it's like I've I've made. Videos trashing both sides both sides equally  32 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:28,860 if you really go. Oh, you're just,  33 00:09:30,400 --> 00:10:29,800 you know, if you trash them both equally, at least the people that support Palestine realize you're trashing both sides like the super pro Israel people think you're just like, oh, you're anti semic, anti semitic. I don't even know what that means. Dude, I don't really, I don't even know what the fuck Jews believe to be honest with you, I just know that typically Jews have a lot of money. Stick together. They're good, you know. Nice people for all I know and uh yeah, I really don't know what they believe in and the whole point of anybody being offended case stripped back. Any one particular group like the idea of being offended in general like nobody gives a fuck. Nobody gives a fuck if your feelings are hurt. We have this thing like I heard. Uh, it cracks me up with this term trigger warning, right? Somebody says, oh, trigger warning, so I'm about to say something that might trigger you. I don't give a fuck and nobody should give a fuck if somebody is offended by words. Dude, they weren't supposed to make it this foreign the evolutionary chain. Do you think that people that got blown up in the hospital over in Gaza when the Palestinian rocket fell short and blew up all their own kids  34 00:10:29,800 --> 00:11:29,380 and then they wanted to get on TV neck like they're the victims of? Israel again, when that happened, you think there god trigger warning. This missile is about to fall from the sky and fucking kill all of us. This idea that we're so comfortable in the West where we care about people's fucking like feelings, right? Where we care about people's feelings? Well, if you say like what is hate, what is hate speech, you know what I mean. It's just fucking words. It's like when it's talking about rappers taking themselves so serious for just rhyming words and all they're talking about is bitches and bottles in the club and you know chicks with fat ass is throwing it back and pouring champagne on it and doing blow off titties and whatever the fuck rappers do these days I don't know. I think they're actually just sipping cough syrup the whole time cause I hear that line on I hear rappers in their songs talking about. I never catch a cold cause I'm sipping all this cough syrup which became illegal as soon as just in Bieber tritics. Now the white kid started sipping on SIRP, but anyways  35 00:11:31,120 --> 00:12:23,660 I forgot what I was. Oh yeah, being offended it doesn't matter, did nobody cares? If you're offended I particularly don't care, and I almost kind of get off on it. Like if I know that somebody like I'm not a bully by any means, but if I know that somebody's gonna crumble under words, that's hilarious to me like I think of. You almost as less of a person. I don't think of you as an equal. I just think of you as less of a person and typically I won't go after you because that's what bullies do. Bullies go after weak people. I only go after what I see are worthy opponents. That's why I like cracking on the left so much because they're in charge of everything. But if somebody is gonna crumble under fucking words, right? If somebody can't handle fucking words, I can't take anything like fat people and offended people. I can't take you serious. There's nothing about you like I don't want to be friends with you  36 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,640 like imagine letting words affect you that much,  37 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:29,440 dude  38 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:47,900 just nobody cares and even even the people that pretend they care. They don't really care like you're not oppressed. If you live in the United States, I'm sorry you're not oppressed. A lot of most people that claim to be oppressed. They are just putting themselves there because they're making terrible decisions or they're begging for attention which they' don't need.  39 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:50,000 It's  40 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:57,740 like I mean look at what's going on in the world and I'm not saying that you know, some terrible thing makes a bad thing any less bad  41 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,840 but I guess I guess it does.  42 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:55,760 It shouldn't always be, comparatively speaking, but even just stand alone events like who the fuck is oppressed in America like people come here from decrepit places right? Like war torn countries. They come here and they try a little bit and they make it happen. You know what I mean, then you get other groups of people. I just wanna blame everything on everybody else and it's like dude, where does it end? I mean this country's been around for fucking. If if somebody could come here from fucking Bangladesh right? Somebody come here with from Bangladesh with nothing and then they go get a job at like a factory. They save their money, they get an apartment. They they do these they do these little things to get themselves into position, maybe even get a grant to go to school, do things that they wanna do or put something on the Internet. That's you know, do some drop shipping or whatever it may be like the opportunities are fucking endless. So when you hear people just talking about being oppressed constantly and it's like dude  43 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:56,620 shut up,  44 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:04,860 nobody cares like at the end of it nobody cares nobody people might pretend that they care, but at the very core of it nobody gives a fuck  45 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:05,880 no,  46 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:38,840 you're not oppressed, nobody believes that you're actually oppressed. People that do believe that you are oppressed. They think that they're better, you know. I mean when you get these super super super like liberal white people who think that like they need to help black people tie their shoes. That is fucking racism to me. I think it's racist to for white people. To tell other races that no, you're not capable of things because you' look that way, that's the racism, and then they they wanna accuse the the fucking moderates. They're just like, yeah, I mean, we're all equal, maybe I had a head start, but in whatever case it may be. But  47 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:39,600 uh  48 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:40,540 did I really?  49 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,080 And that's when people say  50 00:14:42,080 --> 00:15:26,660 so the argument is valid right? The argument is valid like oh, another white guy just run in his mouth about shitty doesn't understand okay, I don't understand what it's like to be a different race. Sure, I'll give you that, but also if you're the different race you don't understand what it's like to be a straight white man. You have no idea. So how are you going to call out my privileges? How are you going to tell me what my life is like in comparison? That's no different than me telling you what your life is like me dismissing your gripes is no different than you pretending that I have all these invisible fucking benefits that just fall from the sky news flash were all out here competing against each other, and unless you are if you're actually in a smaller group, that's why I think that' the Jews are privileged because they're in a smaller minority group and they are ahead. It's kind of how  51 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,720 a lot of the times it's a cultural thing did like  52 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:37,900 that's why you know Asians have this like crazy. Work ethic because that's just in grain in their culture.  53 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:38,720 Um,  54 00:15:38,800 --> 00:16:12,580 and you know what you know it's crazy about Asians and math. It's not even that they're like super intellectually inferior to everybody. It's how their languages set up. The way we say this is beyond my head about explaining, but the way that we say, for instance 1314 they just say like one 3 like the way their their their languages set up. Math makes a lot more sense, but they don't communicate as directly with with uh words. It's a real weird thing if you're interested in it' go look it up. I can't tell you too much about it. I just know that  55 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,300 it is a thing  56 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:34,220 that the reason Asians are so good at math is because their language with the math makes sense where it's almost like if you speak an equation like a sometimes something the answer almost gives itself. It's like you just carry a word over and gives you the answer. So from a young age there just um yeah it just makes more sense,  57 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:39,160 but yeah dude hell, yeah where were we at  58 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:48,420 16 minutes 16 and 1/2 minutes? Huh? Well, I think we're gonna start winding it down bro. One thing I want to say though  59 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:49,920 is  60 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,700 I don't understand why in sports  61 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:53,360 uh  62 00:16:53,360 --> 00:17:53,140 you have to use your last name. What if you just wanna be first name? Where did that tradition come from? Where all around the? Globe. Every different sports team, every different sport, every different culture. We decided we're gonna address athletes by their last game. What if somebody just wants to be fucking to Steve? You know what I'm saying? What if somebody just wants to have? Like if I just wanted to have Rod on my jersey and tell me, no, you gotta be Smith. I'm like, well, there's 1,000,000 other Smiths. I don't wanna be Smith. I wanna be just my first name. Yeah, who does this? Wow, that was the worst topic. It's Friday, you guys, it's Friday and I'm gonna be honest with you. So I'm in my studio right now and my cat piston here again so I got to clean the whole fucking carpets. So I'm doing this podcast really early in the morning which I don't usually do usually I do it at the end of the day when my brains all full of the shit that gets me worked up right now. To be honest with you, I'm in way too good of a mood to be even doing this fucking podcast, but it's Friday. We're heading into the weekend. I appreciate all being here.  63 00:17:53,680 --> 00:18:04,160 Hopefully at a good week. Please tell somebody. Thank you for being here. Share it on your social medias. That's how things grow. You have all the power to do that one  64 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:04,760 more  65 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:38,820 at a time. It's like that Johnny Cash song where he talks about building a car and he. Steals one part of a part at a time that eventually just makes this like fucked up car. I think this song is called One One Piece at a Time. Go look at how he talks about stealing one piece of a car at a time out of the factory that he works in, then he goes and builds this fucking Frankenstein thing which I know that didn't actually happen, but that's what can happen with this podcast one little piece at a time we can go tell somebody grow it spread it spread this dangerous misinformation. Let the offended people know that we don't give a fuck about them.  66 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:39,720 Ah,  67 00:18:39,720 --> 00:19:11,980 let me be the person to fall on the sword. You just sit back in your thriving career without having any enemies and just put my voice out there to say all this bullshit for you. Um, that way you won't look like the bad guy, but the message is still getting out there. I do this for you but really thank you for tuning in this was dangerous misinformation. Happy weekend, happy Friday, uh, don't drive drunk, don't fuck any fat people and don't do bad things. Appreciate all peace out.

In dieser Folge mit Robin, Anika und Meike: „Der gelbe Elefant“ von Heinz Strunk, „Der Apparat“ von J. O. Morgan und „Wie wir brennen“ von Sarah Hall. Welche Rückschlüsse lassen Aussagen von Kunstwerken auf deren Schöpfer*innen zu? Verfolgt man die andauernde Berichterstattung rund um die Vorwürfe gegen Rammstein-Frontmann Till Lindemann, scheint die Trennung zwischen Lyrischem Ich und Autor an mehreren Stellen nicht nur kleingeredet, sondern auch zum Ausgangspunkt für Victim Blaming zu werden.

Astronomy Daily with Steve Dunkley and his trusty AI Newsreader Hallie.Ironically, space enthusiast Hallie dives into the extreme and violent conditions of Jellyfish galaxies, highlighting the unique gas trails and the goal of studying star formation, while the central conflict remains the influence of the main disk of a galaxy. In this episode, you will be able to: · Uncover the secrets of the Jellyfish galaxy and its intriguing gas trails that have captivated astronomers. · Dive into the NASA Earth Information Center, showcasing vital data on climate change and what it means for our world. · Get a glimpse of the Keck Cosmic Reionization Mapper's stunning debut image, bringing the Turtle Nebula to life. · Examine Space Force's partnership with SpaceX and ULA, and understand its significance for military space operations. · Delve into the cutting-edge concept of beaming solar power from space, and its potential to transform clean energy. The resources mentioned in this episode are: · Visit the Earth Information Center at NASA's headquarters in Washington, D.C. for an exhibit showcasing information about our environment and climate, including large videos and interactive media stories and narratives. · Check out the Keck Cosmic Reionization Mapper at the WM. Keck Observatory atop Mount Oka summit in Hawaii for detailed maps of gas around dying stars and other cosmic objects and to map the cosmic web that links and feeds galaxies. · Consider investing in space-based solar power technology, which could potentially yield eight times more power than solar panels on any location on the surface of the globe. Look into the California Institute of Technology's Space Solar Power Project, which aims to harvest solar power in space and transmit it to Earth. · Support Space Force by following their assignments for national security space launch missions divided equally between SpaceX and United Launch Alliance. These missions will help Space Force build out its communications and missile tracking satellite layers. · Keep an eye out for the Jellyfish galaxy J O 206, located around 700 million light years from Earth in the constellation of Aquarius the Water Bearer. This galaxy is a great example of a jellyfish galaxy with distinctive trails of gas that are ripped from it as it moves through the In The Jellyfish Galaxy The Jellyfish Galaxy, also known as J206, is a unique astronomical structure located around 700 million light years from Earth in the constellation of Aquarius. It is characterized by the trails of gas that are ripped from it as it makes its way through the material between galaxies. These gas trails create a stunning visual effect reminiscent of a jellyfish, hence the name. The Jellyfish Galaxy is a fascinating subject for astronomers, as it offers a chance to study the behavior of stars and other celestial bodies in an environment vastly different from our own galaxy. Throughout the podcast, host Steve Dunkley and guest Hallie delved into the fascinating world of the Jellyfish Galaxy, providing a wealth of knowledge and insights. They discussed the unique gas trails that characterize this type of galaxy and the stunning images captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. Hallie also shared how studying the Jellyfish Galaxy can give astronomers a better understanding of star formation in extreme conditions, far from the influence of a galaxy's main disk. NASA's Earth Information Center NASA's Earth Information Center is a cutting-edge exhibit designed to merge science and visualizations, offering visitors an immersive experience that deepens their understanding of our planet's changing climate. The center, which showcases data and insights provided by NASA's Earth-monitoring satellites and instruments, supports the wider Biden-Harris administration's emphasis on addressing climate change. By providing accessible information about the environment and climate, the exhibit helps bridge the gap between scientific research and everyday understanding. Steve and Hallie explored the role of NASA's Earth Information Center in raising awareness about climate change and its effects on our planet. Hallie emphasized the importance of making complex data accessible to laypersons, especially when it comes to helping communities understand and respond to the challenges posed by climate change. The podcast provided valuable context for why such initiatives are critical in educating the public on the importance of environmental conservation and stewardship. The Turtle Nebula The Turtle Nebula, a celestial structure comprised of a dying star surrounded by a glowing envelope of gas, was recently captured by the Keck Cosmic Reionization Mapper (KCRM) at the WM Keck Observatory in Hawaii. This milestone event, known as the first light, signifies the telescope's readiness to begin its mission. The KCRM is designed to map the cosmic web that links and feeds galaxies – an essential part of understanding the large-scale structure of the universe. Steve and Hallie discussed the first light image of the Turtle Nebula and the significance of this celestial object in the study of the cosmic web. Hallie explained that the Turtle Nebula offers astronomers valuable information about the dynamic nature of the universe and its interconnected components. The conversation highlighted the importance of observing celestial structures like the Turtle Nebula to advance our understanding of the universe and its constituent elements.For more Astronomy Daily visit www.spacenuts.io

Pingismästaren Jörgen Persson kallas för den snälla världsmästaren. Men varför är det bra att vara snäll och vad är snällhet egentligen? Hans värsta konkurrent Jan-Ove Waldner säger att man inte vinner om man är snäll. Att Jörgen är en av få i världen som har plusstatistik på J-O säger väl en hel del.I början av 80-talet åkte Jörgen Persson och ett antal andra svenska pingisspelare till Kina för att lära. I VM 1989 rev de tillsammans den kinesiska muren och vann i stort sett allt. Hur det gick till och vad Kina betyder för Jörgen ägnar vi en hel del tid åt. Och naturligtvis, hur klarar man av att delta i sju OS?Men toppidrott är inte bara medaljer och segrar, det sliter också på relationer. Vi pratar om äktenskapet som inte höll, försöken att sluta med pingis och den brutna kontakten till Jörgens pappa. Slutligen, hur går det med mjölkpulveraffärerma, varför har Jörgen sån koll på statistiken och varför smet han från lumpen egentligen?Moderator: Gunnar OesterreichMusik: Mattias Klasson/Daniel OlsenDistribution: AcastSamarbetspartners: Coronapassport.se, Nordic Light Hotel, Atrament BooksHitta allt om podden: Websida: https://spannandemoten.se/Instagram: @spannandemotenFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spannandemotenLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gunnar-oesterreich/Kontakt: gunnar@oesterreich.se eller via sociala medier Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.

At the time when I stood in the churchyard reading the family tombstones, I had just enough learning to be able to spell them out. My construction even of their simple meaning was not very correct, for I read “wife of the Above” as a complimentary reference to my father's exaltation to a better world; and if any one of my deceased relations had been referred to as “Below,” I have no doubt I should have formed the worst opinions of that member of the family. Neither were my notions of the theological positions to which my Catechism bound me, at all accurate; for, I have a lively remembrance that I supposed my declaration that I was to “walk in the same all the days of my life,” laid me under an obligation always to go through the village from our house in one particular direction, and never to vary it by turning down by the wheelwright's or up by the mill.When I was old enough, I was to be apprenticed to Joe, and until I could assume that dignity I was not to be what Mrs. Joe called “Pompeyed,” or (as I render it) pampered. Therefore, I was not only odd-boy about the forge, but if any neighbor happened to want an extra boy to frighten birds, or pick up stones, or do any such job, I was favored with the employment. In order, however, that our superior position might not be compromised thereby, a money box was kept on the kitchen mantel shelf, into which it was publicly made known that all my earnings were dropped. I have an impression that they were to be contributed eventually towards the liquidation of the National Debt, but I know I had no hope of any personal participation in the treasure.Mr. Wopsle's great-aunt kept an evening school in the village; that is to say, she was a ridiculous old woman of limited means and unlimited infirmity, who used to go to sleep from six to seven every evening, in the society of youth who paid two pence per week each, for the improving opportunity of seeing her do it. She rented a small cottage, and Mr. Wopsle had the room upstairs, where we students used to overhear him reading aloud in a most dignified and terrific manner, and occasionally bumping on the ceiling. There was a fiction that Mr. Wopsle “examined” the scholars once a quarter. What he did on those occasions was to turn up his cuffs, stick up his hair, and give us Mark Antony's oration over the body of Caesar. This was always followed by Collins's Ode on the Passions, wherein I particularly venerated Mr. Wopsle as Revenge throwing his bloodstained sword in thunder down, and taking the War-denouncing trumpet with a withering look. It was not with me then, as it was in later life, when I fell into the society of the Passions, and compared them with Collins and Wopsle, rather to the disadvantage of both gentlemen.Mr. Wopsle's great-aunt, besides keeping this educational institution, kept in the same room⁠—a little general shop. She had no idea what stock she had, or what the price of anything in it was; but there was a little greasy memorandum-book kept in a drawer, which served as a Catalogue of Prices, and by this oracle Biddy arranged all the shop transactions. Biddy was Mr. Wopsle's great-aunt's granddaughter; I confess myself quite unequal to the working out of the problem, what relation she was to Mr. Wopsle. She was an orphan like myself; like me, too, had been brought up by hand. She was most noticeable, I thought, in respect of her extremities; for, her hair always wanted brushing, her hands always wanted washing, and her shoes always wanted mending and pulling up at heel. This description must be received with a weekday limitation. On Sundays, she went to church elaborated.Much of my unassisted self, and more by the help of Biddy than of Mr. Wopsle's great-aunt, I struggled through the alphabet as if it had been a bramble-bush; getting considerably worried and scratched by every letter. After that I fell among those thieves, the nine figures, who seemed every evening to do something new to disguise themselves and baffle recognition. But, at last I began, in a purblind groping way, to read, write, and cipher, on the very smallest scale.One night I was sitting in the chimney corner with my slate, expending great efforts on the production of a letter to Joe. I think it must have been a full year after our hunt upon the marshes, for it was a long time after, and it was winter and a hard frost. With an alphabet on the hearth at my feet for reference, I contrived in an hour or two to print and smear this epistle:mI deEr JO i opE U r krWitE wEll i opE i shAl soN B haBelL 4 2 teeDge U JO aN theN wE shOrl b sO glOdd aN wEn i M preNgtD 2 u JO woT larX an blEvE ME inF xn PiP.There was no indispensable necessity for my communicating with Joe by letter, inasmuch as he sat beside me and we were alone. But I delivered this written communication (slate and all) with my own hand, and Joe received it as a miracle of erudition.“I say, Pip, old chap!” cried Joe, opening his blue eyes wide, “what a scholar you are! An't you?”“I should like to be,” said I, glancing at the slate as he held it; with a misgiving that the writing was rather hilly.“Why, here's a J,” said Joe, “and a O equal to anythink! Here's a J and a O, Pip, and a J-O, Joe.”I had never heard Joe read aloud to any greater extent than this monosyllable, and I had observed at church last Sunday, when I accidentally held our prayer book upside down, that it seemed to suit his convenience quite as well as if it had been all right. Wishing to embrace the present occasion of finding out whether in teaching Joe, I should have to begin quite at the beginning, I said, “Ah! But read the rest, Jo.”“The rest, eh, Pip?” said Joe, looking at it with a slow, searching eye, “One, two, three. Why, here's three Js, and three Os, and three J-O, Joes in it, Pip!”I leaned over Joe, and, with the aid of my forefinger read him the whole letter.“Astonishing!” said Joe, when I had finished. “You are a scholar.”“How do you spell Gargery, Joe?” I asked him, with a modest patronage.“I don't spell it at all,” said Joe.“But supposing you did?”“It can't be supposed,” said Joe. “Though I'm uncommon fond of reading, too.”“Are you, Joe?”“On-common. Give me,” said Joe, “a good book, or a good newspaper, and sit me down afore a good fire, and I ask no better. Lord!” he continued, after rubbing his knees a little, “when you do come to a J and a O, and says you, ‘Here, at last, is a J-O, Joe,' how interesting reading is!”I derived from this, that Joe's education, like Steam, was yet in its infancy. Pursuing the subject, I inquired⁠—“Didn't you ever go to school, Joe, when you were as little as me?”“No, Pip.”“Why didn't you ever go to school, Joe, when you were as little as me?”“Well, Pip,” said Joe, taking up the poker, and settling himself to his usual occupation when he was thoughtful, of slowly raking the fire between the lower bars; “I'll tell you. My father, Pip, he were given to drink, and when he were overtook with drink, he hammered away at my mother, most onmerciful. It were a'most the only hammering he did, indeed, 'xcepting at myself. And he hammered at me with a wigor only to be equalled by the wigor with which he didn't hammer at his anwil.⁠—You're a listening and understanding, Pip?”“Yes, Joe.”“ 'Consequence, my mother and me we ran away from my father several times; and then my mother she'd go out to work, and she'd say, ‘Joe,' she'd say, ‘now, please God, you shall have some schooling, child,' and she'd put me to school. But my father were that good in his hart that he couldn't abear to be without us. So, he'd come with a most tremenjous crowd and make such a row at the doors of the houses where we was, that they used to be obligated to have no more to do with us and to give us up to him. And then he took us home and hammered us. Which, you see, Pip,” said Joe, pausing in his meditative raking of the fire, and looking at me, “were a drawback on my learning.”“Certainly, poor Joe!”“Though mind you, Pip,” said Joe, with a judicial touch or two of the poker on the top bar, “rendering unto all their doo, and maintaining equal justice betwixt man and man, my father were that good in his hart, don't you see?”I didn't see; but I didn't say so.“Well!” Joe pursued, “somebody must keep the pot a biling, Pip, or the pot won't bile, don't you know?”I saw that, and said so.“ 'Consequence, my father didn't make objections to my going to work; so I went to work at my present calling, which were his too, if he would have followed it, and I worked tolerable hard, I assure you, Pip. In time I were able to keep him, and I kep him till he went off in a purple leptic fit. And it were my intentions to have had put upon his tombstone that, Whatsume'er the failings on his part, Remember reader he were that good in his heart.”Joe recited this couplet with such manifest pride and careful perspicuity, that I asked him if he had made it himself.“I made it,” said Joe, “my own self. I made it in a moment. It was like striking out a horseshoe complete, in a single blow. I never was so much surprised in all my life⁠—couldn't credit my own ed⁠—to tell you the truth, hardly believed it were my own ed. As I was saying, Pip, it were my intentions to have had it cut over him; but poetry costs money, cut it how you will, small or large, and it were not done. Not to mention bearers, all the money that could be spared were wanted for my mother. She were in poor elth, and quite broke. She weren't long of following, poor soul, and her share of peace come round at last.”Joe's blue eyes turned a little watery; he rubbed first one of them, and then the other, in a most uncongenial and uncomfortable manner, with the round knob on the top of the poker.“It were but lonesome then,” said Joe, “living here alone, and I got acquainted with your sister. Now, Pip,”⁠—Joe looked firmly at me as if he knew I was not going to agree with him;⁠—“your sister is a fine figure of a woman.”I could not help looking at the fire, in an obvious state of doubt.“Whatever family opinions, or whatever the world's opinions, on that subject may be, Pip, your sister is,” Joe tapped the top bar with the poker after every word following, “a-fine-figure⁠—of⁠—a⁠—woman!”I could think of nothing better to say than “I am glad you think so, Joe.”“So am I,” returned Joe, catching me up. “I am glad I think so, Pip. A little redness or a little matter of bone, here or there, what does it signify to me?”I sagaciously observed, if it didn't signify to him, to whom did it signify?“Certainly!” assented Joe. “That's it. You're right, old chap! When I got acquainted with your sister, it were the talk how she was bringing you up by hand. Very kind of her too, all the folks said, and I said, along with all the folks. As to you,” Joe pursued with a countenance expressive of seeing something very nasty indeed, “if you could have been aware how small and flabby and mean you was, dear me, you'd have formed the most contemptible opinion of yourself!”Not exactly relishing this, I said, “Never mind me, Joe.”“But I did mind you, Pip,” he returned with tender simplicity. “When I offered to your sister to keep company, and to be asked in church at such times as she was willing and ready to come to the forge, I said to her, ‘And bring the poor little child. God bless the poor little child,' I said to your sister, ‘there's room for him at the forge!' ”I broke out crying and begging pardon, and hugged Joe round the neck: who dropped the poker to hug me, and to say, “Ever the best of friends; an't us, Pip? Don't cry, old chap!”When this little interruption was over, Joe resumed:⁠—“Well, you see, Pip, and here we are! That's about where it lights; here we are! Now, when you take me in hand in my learning, Pip (and I tell you beforehand I am awful dull, most awful dull), Mrs. Joe mustn't see too much of what we're up to. It must be done, as I may say, on the sly. And why on the sly? I'll tell you why, Pip.”He had taken up the poker again; without which, I doubt if he could have proceeded in his demonstration.“Your sister is given to government.”“Given to government, Joe?” I was startled, for I had some shadowy idea (and I am afraid I must add, hope) that Joe had divorced her in a favor of the Lords of the Admiralty, or Treasury.“Given to government,” said Joe. “Which I meantersay the government of you and myself.”“Oh!”“And she an't over partial to having scholars on the premises,” Joe continued, “and in partickler would not be over partial to my being a scholar, for fear as I might rise. Like a sort of rebel, don't you see?”I was going to retort with an inquiry, and had got as far as “Why⁠—” when Joe stopped me.“Stay a bit. I know what you're a going to say, Pip; stay a bit! I don't deny that your sister comes the Mogul over us, now and again. I don't deny that she do throw us back-falls, and that she do drop down upon us heavy. At such times as when your sister is on the rampage, Pip,” Joe sank his voice to a whisper and glanced at the door, “candor compels fur to admit that she is a buster.”Joe pronounced this word, as if it began with at least twelve capital Bs.“Why don't I rise? That were your observation when I broke it off, Pip?”“Yes, Joe.”“Well,” said Joe, passing the poker into his left hand, that he might feel his whisker; and I had no hope of him whenever he took to that placid occupation; “your sister's a mastermind. A mastermind.”“What's that?” I asked, in some hope of bringing him to a stand. But Joe was readier with his definition than I had expected, and completely stopped me by arguing circularly, and answering with a fixed look, “Her.”“And I ain't a mastermind,” Joe resumed, when he had unfixed his look, and got back to his whisker. “And last of all, Pip⁠—and this I want to say very serious to you, old chap⁠—I see so much in my poor mother, of a woman drudging and slaving and breaking her honest hart and never getting no peace in her mortal days, that I'm dead afeerd of going wrong in the way of not doing what's right by a woman, and I'd fur rather of the two go wrong the t'other way, and be a little ill-conwenienced myself. I wish it was only me that got put out, Pip; I wish there warn't no Tickler for you, old chap; I wish I could take it all on myself; but this is the up-and-down-and-straight on it, Pip, and I hope you'll overlook shortcomings.”Young as I was, I believe that I dated a new admiration of Joe from that night. We were equals afterwards, as we had been before; but, afterwards at quiet times when I sat looking at Joe and thinking about him, I had a new sensation of feeling conscious that I was looking up to Joe in my heart.“However,” said Joe, rising to replenish the fire; “here's the Dutch clock a working himself up to being equal to strike eight of 'em, and she's not come home yet! I hope Uncle Pumblechook's mare mayn't have set a forefoot on a piece o' ice, and gone down.”Mrs. Joe made occasional trips with Uncle Pumblechook on market days, to assist him in buying such household stuffs and goods as required a woman's judgment; Uncle Pumblechook being a bachelor and reposing no confidences in his domestic servant. This was market day, and Mrs. Joe was out on one of these expeditions.Joe made the fire and swept the hearth, and then we went to the door to listen for the chaise-cart. It was a dry cold night, and the wind blew keenly, and the frost was white and hard. A man would die tonight of lying out on the marshes, I thought. And then I looked at the stars, and considered how awful it would be for a man to turn his face up to them as he froze to death, and see no help or pity in all the glittering multitude.“Here comes the mare,” said Joe, “ringing like a peal of bells!”The sound of her iron shoes upon the hard road was quite musical, as she came along at a much brisker trot than usual. We got a chair out, ready for Mrs. Joe's alighting, and stirred up the fire that they might see a bright window, and took a final survey of the kitchen that nothing might be out of its place. When we had completed these preparations, they drove up, wrapped to the eyes. Mrs. Joe was soon landed, and Uncle Pumblechook was soon down too, covering the mare with a cloth, and we were soon all in the kitchen, carrying so much cold air in with us that it seemed to drive all the heat out of the fire.“Now,” said Mrs. Joe, unwrapping herself with haste and excitement, and throwing her bonnet back on her shoulders where it hung by the strings, “if this boy ain't grateful this night, he never will be!”I looked as grateful as any boy possibly could, who was wholly uninformed why he ought to assume that expression.“It's only to be hoped,” said my sister, “that he won't be Pompeyed. But I have my fears.”“She ain't in that line, Mum,” said Mr. Pumblechook. “She knows better.”She? I looked at Joe, making the motion with my lips and eyebrows, “She?” Joe looked at me, making the motion with his lips and eyebrows, “She?” My sister catching him in the act, he drew the back of his hand across his nose with his usual conciliatory air on such occasions, and looked at her.“Well?” said my sister, in her snappish way. “What are you staring at? Is the house afire?”“⁠—Which some individual,” Joe politely hinted, “mentioned⁠—she.”“And she is a she, I suppose?” said my sister. “Unless you call Miss Havisham a he. And I doubt if even you'll go so far as that.”“Miss Havisham, up town?” said Joe.“Is there any Miss Havisham down town?” returned my sister.“She wants this boy to go and play there. And of course he's going. And he had better play there,” said my sister, shaking her head at me as an encouragement to be extremely light and sportive, “or I'll work him.”I had heard of Miss Havisham up town⁠—everybody for miles round had heard of Miss Havisham up town⁠—as an immensely rich and grim lady who lived in a large and dismal house barricaded against robbers, and who led a life of seclusion.“Well to be sure!” said Joe, astounded. “I wonder how she come to know Pip!”“Noodle!” cried my sister. “Who said she knew him?”“⁠—Which some individual,” Joe again politely hinted, “mentioned that she wanted him to go and play there.”“And couldn't she ask Uncle Pumblechook if he knew of a boy to go and play there? Isn't it just barely possible that Uncle Pumblechook may be a tenant of hers, and that he may sometimes⁠—we won't say quarterly or half-yearly, for that would be requiring too much of you⁠—but sometimes⁠—go there to pay his rent? And couldn't she then ask Uncle Pumblechook if he knew of a boy to go and play there? And couldn't Uncle Pumblechook, being always considerate and thoughtful for us⁠—though you may not think it, Joseph,” in a tone of the deepest reproach, as if he were the most callous of nephews, “then mention this boy, standing Prancing here”⁠—which I solemnly declare I was not doing⁠—“that I have forever been a willing slave to?”“Good again!” cried Uncle Pumblechook. “Well put! Prettily pointed! Good indeed! Now Joseph, you know the case.”“No, Joseph,” said my sister, still in a reproachful manner, while Joe apologetically drew the back of his hand across and across his nose, “you do not yet⁠—though you may not think it⁠—know the case. You may consider that you do, but you do not, Joseph. For you do not know that Uncle Pumblechook, being sensible that for anything we can tell, this boy's fortune may be made by his going to Miss Havisham's, has offered to take him into town tonight in his own chaise-cart, and to keep him tonight, and to take him with his own hands to Miss Havisham's tomorrow morning. And Lor-a-mussy me!” cried my sister, casting off her bonnet in sudden desperation, “here I stand talking to mere Mooncalfs, with Uncle Pumblechook waiting, and the mare catching cold at the door, and the boy grimed with crock and dirt from the hair of his head to the sole of his foot!”With that, she pounced upon me, like an eagle on a lamb, and my face was squeezed into wooden bowls in sinks, and my head was put under taps of water-butts, and I was soaped, and kneaded, and towelled, and thumped, and harrowed, and rasped, until I really was quite beside myself. (I may here remark that I suppose myself to be better acquainted than any living authority, with the ridgy effect of a wedding ring, passing unsympathetically over the human countenance.)When my ablutions were completed, I was put into clean linen of the stiffest character, like a young penitent into sackcloth, and was trussed up in my tightest and fearfullest suit. I was then delivered over to Mr. Pumblechook, who formally received me as if he were the Sheriff, and who let off upon me the speech that I knew he had been dying to make all along: “Boy, be forever grateful to all friends, but especially unto them which brought you up by hand!”“Goodbye, Joe!”“God bless you, Pip, old chap!”I had never parted from him before, and what with my feelings and what with soapsuds, I could at first see no stars from the chaise-cart. But they twinkled out one by one, without throwing any light on the questions why on earth I was going to play at Miss Havisham's, and what on earth I was expected to play at.

Evangelho de Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo segundo São João Naquele tempo, alguns gregos que tinha vindo a Jerusalém para adorar nos dias da festa, foram ter com Filipe, de Betsaida da Galileia, e fizeram-lhe este pedido: «Senhor, nós queríamos ver Jesus». Filipe foi dizê-lo a André; e então André e Filipe foram dizê-lo a Jesus. Jesus respondeu-lhes: «Chegou a hora em que o Filho do homem vai ser glorificado. Em verdade, em verdade vos digo: Se o grão de trigo, lançado à terra, não morrer, fica só; mas se morrer, dará muito fruto. Quem ama a sua vida, perdê-la-á, e quem despreza a sua vida neste mundo conservá-la-á para a vida eterna. Se alguém Me quiser servir, que Me siga, e onde Eu estiver, ali estará também o meu servo. E se alguém Me servir, meu Pai o honrará. Agora a minha alma está perturbada. E que hei de dizer? Pai, salva-Me desta hora? Mas por causa disto é que Eu cheguei a esta hora. Pai, glorifica o teu nome». Veio então uma voz do céu que dizia: «Já O glorifiquei e tornarei a glorificá-l'O». A multidão que estava presente e ouvira dizia ter sido um trovão. Outros afirmavam: «Foi um Anjo que Lhe falou». Disse Jesus: «Não foi por minha causa que esta voz se fez ouvir; foi por vossa causa. Chegou a hora em que este mundo vai ser julgado. Chegou a hora em que vai ser expulso o príncipe deste mundo. E quando Eu for elevado da terra, atrairei todos a Mim». Falava deste modo, para indicar de que morte ia morrer. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/luismfigueiredorodrigues/message

Dowiedz się więcej: Ubezpieczenie na życie z cesją na bankMK: Rozumiem, to jest szczera, dobra odpowiedź, okej. Dobra, ja mam tutaj jeszcze takie zagadnienie, jak ubezpieczenie na życie z cesją na bank, o co tutaj chodzi?ŁJ: Chodzi o to przede wszystkim – ubezpieczenie na życie z cesją na bank – czyli w sytuacji utraty naszego życia, kto jest cesjonariuszem, czyli kto ma prawo do odebrania tego świadczenia, które jest należne – że tak powiem – po naszej śmierci, czyli które zabezpieczy w tym przypadku interes banku.MK: Odebrania świadczenia, czyli pobrania pieniędzy?ŁJ: O tak, tak.MK :Czyli ubezpieczenie na życie z cesją na bank oznacza, że jeżeli ja z jakiegoś powodu postanowię zawinąć się z tego świata, to wtedy beneficjentem ubezpieczenia będzie bank? ŁJ: Tak jest, beneficjentem czyli tą osobą uprawnioną do odebrania pieniędzy. Natomiast tutaj moglibyśmy jeszcze rozszerzyć o taką jedną rzecz. Też należy mieć świadomość tego i nie należy się tego bać, jeżeli mamy faktycznie już wybraną tą stałą sumę ubezpieczenia, załóżmy dalej ten nasz wariant testowy te trzysta tysięcy. Jeżeli dojdzie do tego, że tak jak powiedziałeś – postanowiłeś się zawinąć z tego świata i do spłaty zostało powiedzmy sto tysięcy, no to bank pobierze sobie tyle ile jest mu należne. Czyli nie całą wartość polisy te trzysta tysięcy, tylko tyle ile fizycznie pozostało do spłaty.

The conversation covers:  The difference between cloud computing and cloud-native, according to AJ Whether it's possible to have a cloud-native application that runs on-premise  The types of conversations that AJ has with customers, as VP of product. AJ also talks about the different types of customers that DigitalOcean serves. How the needs of smaller teams tend to differ from the needs of enterprise users — and the challenges that smaller teams face when learning and implementing cloud-native applications.   Making decisions when using Kubernetes, and how it can be overwhelming due to the sheer number of choices that you can make.  Some of the main motivations that are driving smaller companies to Kubernetes. AJ also explains what he thinks is the best rationale for using Kubernetes. Popular misconceptions about cloud-native and Kubernetes that AJ is seeing. Why customers often struggle to make technology decisions to support their business goals.  AJ's advice for businesses when making technology decisions. Why startups are encouraged to start by using open source — and why open source wins in the end when compared to proprietary solutions.

I'm Emily Omier, your host, and my day job is helping companies position themselves in the cloud-native ecosystem so that their product's value is obvious to end-users. I started this podcast because organizations embark on the cloud naive journey for business reasons, but in general, the industry doesn't talk about them. Instead, we talk a lot about technical reasons. I'm hoping that with this podcast, we focus more on the business goals and business motivations that lead organizations to adopt cloud-native and Kubernetes. I hope you'll join me.Emily: Welcome to The Business of Cloud Native. I'm Emily Omier, your host, and today I'm chatting with AJ. AJ, can you go ahead and introduce yourself?AJ: Hey, I'm AJ. I'm vice president of product for DigitalOcean. I've been with the company for about 15 months. Before that, I spent about a couple of decades with Microsoft. I was fortunate to work on Azure for the last decade, and I had the opportunity to build some cloud services with the company.Emily: And thank you so much for joining us.AJ: Thank you, thank you for having me.Emily: I always like to start out by asking, what do you actually do? What does a day look like?AJ: [laughs]. It's an interesting question. So, yes, the day is usually all over the place depending on the priorities and things that are in motion for a given quarter or a week, per se. But usually, my days involve working with the team around the strategic initiatives that have been planned, driving clarity around different projects that I [unintelligible]. Mainly working with leadership on defining some of the roadmap for the product as well as the company. And yeah, and talking to lots of customers. That's something that I really, really enjoy. And every other day I have a meeting or two talking to our customers, learning from them, how they use our products and how can we get better.Emily: I'm going to ask more about those conversations with customers because that's what I find really interesting. But first, actually, I wanted to start with another question. What do you see as the difference between cloud computing and cloud-native?AJ: The difference essentially, in a way, the cloud computing is a much bigger umbrella around how we as a technology industry are enabling other businesses to bring their workload to a more scalable, more efficient, more secure environment versus trying to host, optimize, or do things by themselves. And the cloud-native, in a way, it's a subset of a cloud computing where not necessarily you always have to have existing workloads or something that is prior technology that has been already built and you're looking for a place to host. In a way, when you're building something out, new, greenfield apps and whatnot, you're starting from scratch, you're building your applications and solutions that are cloud-native by definition. They're built for Cloud; they're born in Cloud, and are optimizing the latest and the greatest innovations that are present and as future-looking to help you scale and succeed your business, in a way.Emily: Do you think it's possible to have a cloud-native application that runs on-premise?AJ: There's a lot of [laughs] innovations happening in pockets, and especially from the top providers to enable those scenarios. But at the end of the day, those investments are essentially driven to help people and companies, especially on the larger scale, to buy some time to completely move to the public cloud where the industry takes their time to come up with the compliance, security requirements and [unintelligible]. So, you'll start to see—you might have heard about some of the investments these top cloud providers are doing about allowing and bringing those similar stack and technologies that they are building in a public cloud to on-premise or running on their own data center, in a way. So, it is possible, in bits and pockets to start with a cloud-native to run, on-premise, but that customer segment and the target is very, very different than the ones that start in a public cloud first.Emily: I want to switch to talking about some of the conversations that you have with customers. I really like to understand what end users are thinking. What would you say when you talk to customers? What's the thing that they're most excited about?AJ: Right. So, it depends on what segment of customers you're speaking with, right? DigitalOcean serves a very different set of customers than a typical large cloud providers do. We're focused more on individual developers, small startups, or SMBs. Again, when I say SMBs, it's a broad term, when I say SMBs the S with [unintelligible]. So, we focus mainly on two to ten devs team, and smaller companies and whatnot. So, their requirements are very different; their needs are very unique compared to what I used to talk, back in my past life, with enterprise customers. Their requirements are very unique and different as well. So, what I hear from the customers that I speak with recently, and have been speaking with for last over a year, is how can I make my business that is [unintelligible] on a cloud? And what I mean by that is how do I build solutions that are simple, easy to understand, and where I'm focused on building software and not really worrying about the complexity of the infrastructure, at the same time, keep the price in control and very simple and predictable. And that resonates really, really well. The tons and tons of customers that I spoke with recently, they moved from large cloud providers to our platform because their business was not viable on those cloud providers. And what I mean by that is you because of the complexity of how the [prime systems] product offering and the sticker shock they get, at the end of a month on a bill, it just does not make any business sense for them to keep on running on that cloud. So, they're looking for that kind of simplicity; they're looking for price predictability; they're looking for something easy to get started, and cheap so they don't break the bank. I mean, those are some of the real common themes that I keep hearing from the business side of the customers, SMBs. Then there's a set of different customers that I speak with. They are individual developers, they are students, they are people who are trying to learn technology. And what DigitalOcean has done great for our last eight, nine years is not only build this platform but build this great community of people who come to learn about technology. I would say more than 50 percent of our customers tell me how they love DO and they found DO because they were trying to learn so-and-so technology and they came and hit our tutorials. And they got to know about the company from the tutorials, they started learning, and it was very easy to transition to move into the platform because that's something they absolutely love.Emily: When you think about the needs of these smaller teams, how would you contrast that with the enterprise users that you used to talk to more?AJ: Yeah. Their needs are very different and very unique. They just need bare minimum basic things to get started with their application. They want to avoid all these complexity of hundred-plus services and trying to make the decision, which is the right one, which is the wrong one to go ahead with. So, they're not really looking for all kinds of bells and whistles and security requirement, or that feature that only one out of hundred customers will need or whatnot. They're just looking for very minimum kind of a solution from the technology perspective. Something really simple, really easy to start with, not too many options out there that causes more confusion versus getting started quickly. So, simplicity is the biggest aspect that I see from this customer segment. And then second on the simplicity side is also simple pricing. For example, they would love to build applications and deploy and across the world, [across] regions, or [unintelligible] more regions to target different segments and customers. And they want to have the same pricing. And bandwidth pricing is a great example. If you look at the other cloud providers, you end up paying different bandwidth pricing depending on which region you're deployed on. Unlike DO where the bandwidth pricing is flat across the world. So, that's really appealing to the customer set. Same thing goes with another product like storage, where you store your data, and when you are accessing the data, you need the predictability, you need to know how much it's going to cost you as your end-user usage pattern changes. If you look at the top cloud provider, if you store your data in their storage, they will charge you for storage they will charge you hot data cold data, different API calls, you know, API calls for seconds and whatnot, and by the end of the day, your bill is very unpredictable compared to what you see at DO where you pay a flat monthly price, and none of those complexity comes in. So, that is a unique change that I see. And then, again, their requirements are very different, very, very simple. They don't need all the complexity. Something really simple to start with, including pricing.Emily: This is interesting because most people, or… I should say, I. When I think of cloud-native, and I think even of cloud computing, simple is not the word that comes to mind.AJ: Right.Emily: How frustrating is this for these smaller teams to try to wrap their head around everything that they need to learn and understand in order to successfully use cloud-native applications?AJ: It is very frustrating. And Kubernetes is a great example. It has a huge mindshare in the industry. It is a hugely popular technology that everybody's moving towards because it's the next big thing and the cool thing out there in the market, but the reality is something really, really complicated to learn, to understand. So, it is a super frustrating for people to not only learn the technology that is new and complicated but at the same time trying adapt to different versions of the similar implementation across different cloud because they were built to solve for a few specific customers in [unintelligible] that might not be suitable to them. The one thing that I keep on hearing from the customers that are using our Kubernetes, they just love the fact how vanilla Kubernetes is offering it is. It's not too many bells and whistles. They have to really understand what this now means or what that now means, versus just, I understand the basic concept that I read from the tutorials, and I get what I'm seeing there. So, it is frustrating, at least on the cloud-native side, and the more layer of abstraction that you provide and make it simple, the onboarding becomes really, really exciting for them. But to my [unintelligible], to provide this simplicity to our end customers, we have to take on a crazy amount of complexity on our side, on the back end, and on the infrastructure. So, it's even more frustrating for our engineering to make sure they are delivering on the product requirements that my team comes up with because we want to keep things simple and straightforward for our customers.Emily: A lot of people think one of the advantages of Kubernetes is being that it's infinitely extendable; it's infinitely flexible. And yet, obviously, when you have, sort of, infinite options, that means you have to make a bazillion different choices in order to just get something to work. How do your customers tend to approach those trade-offs? Do they want somebody to make the decisions for them?AJ: Right, right. And that's a great question. Again, this is a very different customer in that respect. And there's a saying that I have in my team that I tell my team, “Be careful what you measure because that drives behaviors.” So, now that we are targeting a very specific set of customers, the scale is not the biggest priority on their mind at any given time, because they're building, they're prototyping, they're starting something small, and they're growing with this. So, that's not something that they want to over optimize. It goes back to the point that I made: they want solutions that are more vanilla. But when you compare these concerns that you talked about, with the large cloud providers, they are real because their needs are very different. They're looking for a solution or Kubernetes clusters with more than thousand-plus nodes, and things along those lines. And to support that and to support those scenarios, yes, the complexity comes in by nature, and they have to build certain features and solutions to work around those limitations. And that's where things starts getting complicated because it's not a one size fits everyone scenario when you have these vast variety of customers coming in and trying to use the product that you build that was essentially built based on the feedback that you get—getting from your largest, and the biggest, and the highest paying customers. Goes back to the point that I made: be careful what you measure. Biggest thing that they measure based on the top cloud provider is the how many big multi-million-dollar deals are we getting? And those customers have very unique needs. Every customer will have a different feature requirements and sets, and if you rally around that, you end up building your product, by definition, that's complex.Emily: When you're talking to your team about the conversations that you have with customers, what do you feel like is sort of hard to communicate? And I'm talking about when you're trying to translate, almost, these customer needs to your own technical team.AJ: Yeah, I don't deal with—on a day-to-day—execution side of things, so I stay away from translating these requirements to my product team or engineering team. Instead, I end up introducing those guys to the customers and have them talk to them directly because nothing beats talking to the customers directly versus me getting the feedback and trying to relay the same to the broader team to go and build this product out. So, it's a big part of our DNA, it's a big part of our culture, on inviting customers, talking to them more frequently before we build anything. That works out. The learning that I get from talking to our customers is around defining the strategy and the vision for the company on who we want to do and who we want to be in two years, three years, or four years from now.Emily: What do you see—for these smaller teams, smaller companies, what is the main motivation for using something like Kubernetes?AJ: Yeah, it goes back to the point that I made: there's a huge amount of mindshare. So, you know what, you end up finding quite a bit of customers, they just want to use it because it's the buzzword, and then that's where they start. And the second motivation where the people who really, really know the technology, and know what it can do is to avoid the infrastructure management piece they had to deal with themselves around what happens when the—you know, once your machine goes down. How do I add certain things into [unintelligible]? How do I bring certain security isolation? All those the orchestration piece that Kubernetes gives you by definition is very empowering to them to go and offload some of the manual work they used to do. The third tangent that I'm seeing, at least with DO and the customers that I speak to, that it's a great platform and a cheap way for them to start learning about the technology because learning is a big part of what your customers are, right? So, as they learn about technology as the buzzword [unintelligible] Kubernetes keeps on getting hot, they come running into the documentation that we've created, they love that. And then they come in, spin up the clusters just to learn what this technology is. I've had some customers that are really, really large enterprises, but a smaller team within those enterprises, they're sending their dev teams to DO saying, “You know what? Great platform. Go learn about Kubernetes and see how the technology works because that's the easiest and fastest way, and the cheapest way to get that stuff done before you actually start using it.”Emily: Do you think that most people come to learn about Kubernetes because Kubernetes is a buzzword?AJ: Well, that's one part of it, right? There's one step, they're trying to learn certain things, so you're seeing certain percent that they are just going for that mindshare they have. Then there is a set of customers who know what it is, and why they want to use it, and they are very thoughtful and mindful around what they're going to use that for. And that's where the SMB business comes in, or the more business side of the customer they come in, and to that point is where they just want to leverage and get rid of all the manual orchestration work they had to do with all these virtual machines that they had to be with. But then when you talk about the customers, you're talking about the customers who are dealing with those clusters of VMs. You're not really talking about customers who's trying to just spin up a cluster with two or three nodes because that's the guy who's trying to learn.Emily: And among your customers in particular, what do you think some of the misconceptions are, either about cloud-native in general or about Kubernetes specifically?AJ: Yeah there's not really a misconception perspective. We… the conversations that I ended up having with them is not about the philosophy of the technology that has been evolved across us. I mean, obviously DO didn't invent the Kubernetes, or neither did Microsoft, so when you stay away from that conversation [unintelligible] that sort of conversation.But the biggest misconception is that this is the way for me to build the cloud-native application because that's what the industry tells me to; that's what it looks like. So, some people go out and start their [unintelligible] applications on the top of Kubernetes thinking that's the only way; that's how I should do it, whether it really fits the bill or not. The reality is there might be and should be using some sort of a PaaS platform. They might be using some sort of a container solution that is a full-blown PaaS, and they don't really need the Kubernetes clusters. And that's where the misconception is, is because they just struggle making the right technology bets for the solution that they're trying to build and drive versus just catching on to the latest and greatest buzzword or the technologies that are being out there.Emily: Why do you think this happens? Why do you think customers sometimes struggle to make the right technology decisions based on their actual business goals?AJ: Because that's a really [laughs] hard problem to solve, at least when you're trying to build a business, you're not always ends up being the technology business. Technology does not all end up being your first [unintelligible], or the biggest skills set that you have. They're just trying to pick and choose what is being influenced by the learning, or through forums and whatnot to go along with. There's hardly very few customers that I end up seeing, they make the technology decisions that are long term with the scalable solutions, and right coding language, and whatnot. It's mainly around what's the best and the latest that I can get my hands with? What I can learn quickly about? What are the resources are available? And let me start prototyping that fast. And soon.Emily: What advice would you give to these businesses? Like, maybe they're not going to make the perfect technology decision, but if you have advice to maybe help them make a better technology decision, or just what to think about to try to improve that decision making process?AJ: You know, I get that question asked quite a lot from people who are trying to start something new. And the right advice there is to focus on job to be done. What is the end goal that you're trying to solve for within a few weeks or a month, or maybe a quarter? What is the job to be done? And then look for various skills and comfort-level are versus trying choose for what is the latest and greatest and then spend a crazy amount of time trying to learn that technology because you don't have that skill set in-house or within you. So, start with what you feel comfortable, where you have the skill sets, where you can make and prototype something quicker and sooner, but while keeping the core job to be done in the mind. And if the job to be done is not really technology-focused, it's solving some different business problem, then don't heavily pivot on picking the right technology.Emily: Would you say this also sort of starts with an honest evaluation of what your… resources so to speak, what your skills are?AJ: One hundred percent. That's the question you have to ask yourself as well. So, if you're comfortable with one coding language, go with it. Just don't go pick the latest and greatest coding language because that's the biggest buzzword, but then you end up finding yourself spending quite a bit of time learning that technology, but you're not really solving for the job that you [unintelligible].Emily: What do you think are the best rationale that you see for using Kubernetes?AJ: It's again, goes back to, in my opinion, Kubernetes is still infrastructure. People end up confusing that with the layer of platform as a service, and whatnot. The real rationale in using that technology is to optimize for some of the manual work you used to do around managing infrastructures and VM on a scale. SO some of the OS updates, the auto-upgrades, and what happens when the VM goes down? How do you add more VMs to your existing network and whatnot? Those were very lengthy and time-consuming task, and all the orchestration pieces that Kubernetes provides, it's a great way to start and manage your existing infrastructure. I mean, that's the way I would recommend people to tiptoe into the technology, and that's where the majority of the customers are. Then there's a set of customers who are looking to build an high-level PaaS offering or a Software as a Service offering. These are more skilled people with the right talent and enough money to invest in the right place. Kubernetes is a great platform for them to build those sort of PasS and SaaS offering on top of that because it does not make any sense in trying to build those custom orchestration when you are building a solution that's going to serve tens of thousands of end-users and going to scale [unintelligible]. So, but those are pretty low percent of Kubernetes users, and that's where the industry trend seems to be, also, growing around people building larger businesses.Emily: What advice would you have about making these longer-term technology decisions? When you first started talking about making good technology decisions, it was about what are we going to do this quarter? What about when you're thinking, “What are we going to do in the next two years? What are we going to do in the next five years?” How far out should you be thinking when you're making a technology decision?AJ: Yeah, that's a pretty hard situation to be in. And not many will be trying to answer that question, especially the ones that I deal with, the customer segment that I'm talking about. On longer-term technology decisions, it's a very different set of customers who are building solutions for a larger customer segments and whatnot. The advice, again, remains the same. Start with something that you are comfortable with, keep an eye on what is the game plan is going to be when you start hitting a certain scale and keep an eye on your technical debt. Again, you don't want to keep on piling on to technical debt for too long in trying to build a solution. So, whatever that you design, just make sure you have the capability, and you're choosing the technology that's going to be around and evolve when the time is right for you to go out and start paying your technical debt. The second aspect, I would ask them to invest in quite a bit of automation; investing quite a bit of work that it's not really sexy per se. When you're building features and writing code, building new features and designing the new product ideas is always fun, but then there's a workaround certain things on automation. There's always this one guy who does all these CI/CD automation, pipeline automation, making sure your code written a certain way, and those things; those are very critical investments. If you do not make them a core part of your development process from get-go, you're going to have a really hard time in two years, or three years, or four years from now to keep up with what's going on and to keep up and automate all that code in the application that you wrote to scale with the business that is scaling.Emily: What advice specifically do you have for startups? So, not just small companies; small companies that are looking to scale quickly. Do you think that there's any difference in how you recommend adopting Kubernetes or cloud-native versus, say, a small company that's not planning to scale massively in the next couple of years?AJ: Yeah, I think the latter question is, is really even if you were to ask the founder of the company, she wouldn't be able to answer that, “We're not planning to scale that fast.” The scale comes; it surprises you. [laughs]. When it was about product-market fit, you're going to find the scale and that's going to happen. My recommendation is at a more generic level. If you're starting something new, you're building up from scratch, start cloud-native. Pick the right technology that are evolving, and start with open source because you're going to have the wave of innovations coming in. Why open source? They will outweigh trying to use something proprietary or trying to reinvent the wheel yourself. So, if you starting something new, start cloud-native, use open source. It allows you to quickly iterate and build things faster. And you benefit from a larger community contribution coming into those innovations. Like, at the end of the day, I like to say this, regardless of what proprietary solution you use or who you are and whatnot, open-source wins in the end.Emily: Why do you think open source wins in the end?AJ: It's because the larger community and multiple minds are working, trying to solve a similar problem. It's far, far—much better. It's more inclusive. It's not as opinionated as when you would be when you're building your own proprietary software or trying to do something to solve your one specific problem. When you're building products and solutions that are going to be used across the world by different kinds of customers, your segments going to change, you really want to make a bet on a technology and a solutions that are built by different minds, more inclusive people, people with different opinion and thinking from yourself, and in the long run, that pays up.The great example I can give you from my past life is I was fortunate to build a Platform as a Service for Azure. Back in the days, there was no Kubernetes. But what we ended up building to build that technology was just a really big custom orchestration exactly similar to what Kubernetes is today. The reality is fast forward to, you know, eight, nine years from now everybody's talking about Kubernetes, not that custom orchestration that we built. The business is working; that is great, but at the end of the day, what won was the open-source orchestration that allowed people to manage thousands and hundreds of thousands of VMs on a large scale, and that's winning.Emily: Would you recommend open source even for small companies that, say, don't have a lot of expertise in—AJ: 100 percent.Emily: —A lot of people say open source is free like a puppy, right? So, you have to invest a lot in—AJ: No, no, it's 100 percent because it's really easy to get started with open source. It's really easy to get something that's out there. There's a bigger community to try and help you out, and it gives immense pleasure to contribute back to something that you're consuming as well. I mean, this is, by definition, is a human nature. It keeps you more engaged and innovative when you're starting there. So, I think it's when you're prototyping something, just always try and go with the open-source. You're going to get tons and tons of ideas and levers you could pull. If you're going to run into some issues, somebody has, somewhere, ran into that and will have a solution. So, that's the easiest way to start.Emily: Anything else that you'd like to add, that really sticks out about the business reasons that people are choosing Kubernetes or cloud-native?AJ: Yeah. Again, like I said, the business reason, you know, majority of them… more than 50 percent are pick that to start something new, and learn in their perspective, and just use the benefits of the custom—or not the custom, but the open-source orchestration to deal with their few virtual machines, they were running before, or whatnot. Then there is a trend that is growing around the Kubernetes ecosystem where people are now building more Paas and SaaS solution on top of that, and these are the people who know how the technology works, who are the people who are contributing back to the Kubernetes ecosystem as well. But there are a layer of abstractions that have come in on top of Kubernetes where problems that were created by the technology—some of the innovations that you see from Google, Axure, that providing you a bunch of bells and whistles to go build those PaaS and Saas on top of Kubernetes. So, that's where—now the reason why people are using that.Emily: All right, AJ, what is an engineering tool that you couldn't do your job without? Or maybe I should say, what's a tool that you just couldn't do your job without?AJ: [laughs]. Well, I'm an engineer at heart, but I don't code anymore. I mean, it's been a while, but so if there's one tool that I can't do my job without right now, into this world is definitely videoconferencing. When everybody's remote. And DO as a company was 70 percent remote before the pandemic. Now we're 100 percent, so if that tool's gone away, there is zero productivity. So, that's the biggest one that I have in my mind. And besides that, things like Slack. We work, live, breathe that, and it makes things pretty useful. So, those are the two things I can do my job without.Emily: How can listeners connect with you or follow you?AJ: Yeah, they can follow me on Twitter or connect with me on my LinkedIn. Both handles are my first name and J-O. It's apurvajo, A-P-U-R-V-A-J-O. You know, I always love to hear from our customers, and a future prospect or anybody who wants to learn about the company and what we have is always exciting.Emily: All right. Well, thank you so much for joining us.AJ: Likewise. Thank you.Emily: Thanks for listening. I hope you've learned just a little bit more about The Business of Cloud Native. If you'd like to connect with me or learn more about my positioning services, look me up on LinkedIn: I'm Emily Omier, that's O-M-I-E-R, or visit my website which is emilyomier.com.

In accordance with MSM tradition (that is very on purpose and an intentional part of our brand, and NOT the whim of a chaotic universe), we present to you this year's Halloween-in-December pre-holiday spookfest: 2004's Spookley the Square Pumpkin! You may have heard of this lumpen mistake of nature recently from some other, much more popular podcast, who may have given away the whole synopsis to an audience who could populate a reasonably sized town, and may be smarter, funnier and collectively more handsome than at least one of our hosts.* It's okay, though, you wouldn't be listening to this show if you were interested in quality over quantity. It's only worth mentioning because we read out some reviews on this episode, and it should be noted this was recorded before that other show aired. You'll understand why it matters when you get there. Get cosy, get nogged, turn down the lights, and feast your ears on the terrifying ballad of Scrumbles the Squmpkin. P.S: We are so sorry for all the terrible things we said. *Cami Featuring: padcasts, the J/O-lympics, what the fuck is a veggie tale, laughing at a real dead guy, pumpkin full of organs, save the day with your huge square ass Movie: Spookley the Square Pumpkin (2004) Director: Bernie Denk Rating: Sigmund Freud Was Right intro and outro music: “Everyone in Town Wants You Dead” by Singing Sadie
