Was haben Spieleentwicklung und die Entwicklung von Mods gemeinsam - was ist anders? Wir haben Jase und Jan zu Besuch, die beide jeweils eine Total Conversion für"Gothic 2 - Die Nacht des Raben" entwickeln. Wann wurde das erste Spiel der Welt gemodded? Was sind die Unterschiede zwischen Modding und klassischer Spieleentwicklung? Welche rechtlichen Fragen gibt es? Welche Herausforderungen treten bei der Entwicklung auf und was für lustige Bugs sind dabei entstanden? Neben den Themen rund um die Entwicklung von Mods haben wir in dieser Folge auch ganz viel über Gothic gesprochen, da wir mit den beiden Gästen natürlich auch zwei Gothic-Nerds am Start hatten. Jase entwickelt aktuell die Mod"Gothic - A Prequel Story" (GAPS), welche die Geschichte einiger Frauen im Männergefängnis der Minenkolonie vor den Ereignissen des ersten Spiels erzählt. Jan entwickelt die Mod"Janus", eine eigenständige Fantasygeschichte in einer eigens dafür geschriebenen Welt.

It seems one set of tariffs is declared unconstitutional and then another set get installed in the current day, but what's really happening with tariffs? Sara Albrecht, Chairman of the Liberty Justice Center and founder of Swan Capital, talks about their recent Supreme Court win, how refunds might play out, and what to keep an eye on in the year to come. More about Sara Albrecht: Sara Albrecht serves as Chairman of the Liberty Justice Center, helping guide one of the nation's leading constitutional litigation firms in its mission to defend individual liberty and restore the proper limits of government power. With a deep commitment to educational freedom, free speech, workers' rights, and checking government overreach, Sara provides strategic leadership, philanthropic vision, and hands-on support for the Center's high-impact litigation nationwide.  An accomplished investor and entrepreneur, Sara founded Swan Capital following a career in investment management that included leadership roles at Harris Associates and as a founding partner of the equity team at PPM America. She has also taught International Finance and previously owned and operated the retail chain Ultimo.  Sara is an active civic and cultural leader, serving on several nonprofit boards, including the Illinois Policy Institute and the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Unify America, and the Harris Theater for Music and Dance.  In addition to her CFA certification, she holds degrees from DePaul University and Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management.   More about Liberty Justice Center: Liberty Justice Center is a national, nonprofit, nonpartisan public-interest litigation firm dedicated to protecting constitutional rights and restoring limits on government power.

Trump which ruled the IEEPA tariffs unconstitutional   The Liberty Justice Center has litigated more than 145 cases in 36 states and Puerto Rico, with attorneys based in eight states. The Center represents every client at no cost, grounded in the belief that no American should have to choose between their constitutional rights and the ability to afford a lawyer—especially when facing the vast resources of government.   Beyond the courtroom, the Liberty Justice Center works to expose overreach, hold officials accountable, engage communities, and strengthen the court of public opinion.

What happens when the union that claims to represent you stops representing your interests?On this episode of Disunion, host David Osborne speaks with Chip Rogers, CEO of Americans for FairTreatment (AFFT), to unpack the rapid growth of the organization and the rising backlash among public sector workers.Growing from just a few hundred members to now more than 14,000 nationwide, AFFT is giving teachers, firefighters, federal employees, and others a way to push back against union leadership they say has become overly political and unaccountable.Rogers breaks down why many teachers say they support unions in theory but not their own, and how public sector unions often wield dues and political power in ways that clash with member priorities. He also unpacks the post-Janus fight over worker rights, emerging state reforms like recertification votes and pay flexibility, and the high-stakes battle over TSA unionization and federal worker protections.Along the way, Rogers shares personal stories, from his mother's experience as a teacher to his own classroom being downgraded by union rules, that illustrate how current labor structures can reward mediocrity and sideline excellence.If you're interested in worker freedom, union accountability, and the future of public sector labor law, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

The legal battles shaping the future of liberty often unfold behind the scenes, yet their impact resonates across society. This episode of Giving Ventures explores how public interest law firms like Liberty Justice Center are leveraging strategic litigation to reinforce constitutional rights and curb government overreach. Sara Albrecht, chairman of the Liberty Justice Center, joins Peter to dissect landmark LJC wins at the Supreme Court like Janus v. AFSCME, which banned mandatory union dues for public-sector employees, and VOS Selections v. Trump, which ruled the Trump administration's tariffs unconstitutional. These cases reveal the intricate, multi-year process of securing a public interest legal win, from identifying plaintiffs to preparing for trial. Sara shares how the organization's success hinges on disciplined messaging, careful plaintiff selection, and unwavering dedication to constitutional principles. For strategic donors interested in long-term impact, this conversation illustrates how targeted legal action can protect individual freedoms by establishing important precedents.

En este nuevo #lunespodcastero quiero recomendar precisamente este proyecto, pero antes de hacerlo necesito detenerme en algo que parece una tontería… aunque en realidad no lo es: la diferencia entre cocina y gastronomía. Arranco el episodio explicando que muchas veces usamos ambas palabras como si fueran sinónimos, cuando en realidad no lo son. Cuando hablamos de cocina normalmente pensamos en recetas, técnicas, ingredientes o en el proceso de preparar un plato concreto. Es decir, la cocina tiene mucho que ver con el acto de cocinar. La gastronomía, en cambio, va mucho más allá. La gastronomía habla de historia, de cultura, de tradiciones, de comercio, de viajes y de cómo los alimentos han acompañado a las sociedades a lo largo del tiempo. También habla de fermentaciones, de conservación de alimentos, de costumbres sociales e incluso de economía o política en determinados momentos históricos. Si tuviera que resumirlo de forma sencilla diría que la cocina sería el plato que tenemos delante, mientras que la gastronomía sería todo lo que rodea a ese plato. Y precisamente ahí es donde encaja Gastromovidas, el podcast que traigo hoy a esta sección. Porque este programa no es un podcast de recetas. Aquí no vas a encontrar instrucciones paso a paso para cocinar un plato en casa. Lo que vas a encontrar son historias, curiosidades y reflexiones sobre la comida entendida como fenómeno cultural. Detrás del proyecto están Sandra Lozano y Robert Ruiz, dos perfiles muy distintos pero que encajan sorprendentemente bien dentro del formato del podcast. Sandra Lozano es doctora en Arqueología por la Universidad Pompeu Fabra y está especializada en historia de la gastronomía. A lo largo de su trayectoria ha trabajado como investigadora, docente universitaria, coordinadora de proyectos de divulgación histórica y gestora editorial. Además, hay una faceta que no siempre aparece en su biografía académica pero que ella misma reivindica en redes sociales: también es cómica, algo que se nota bastante en el tono del podcast. Por otro lado está Robert Ruiz, un experto en fermentación que lleva muchos años investigando y experimentando con este tipo de procesos. Es cofundador de LOV Ferments, una empresa dedicada a la producción de bebidas fermentadas como kombucha o hidromiel, y también fundador de JANUS, un proyecto centrado en la divulgación y conservación de técnicas gastronómicas tradicionales. Entre ambos construyen conversaciones interesantes en las que lo mismo hablan de fermentados, de historia culinaria o de tradiciones alimentarias que de actualidad gastronómica. Todo ello con un tono cercano y bastante humor, algo que hace que los episodios se escuchen con mucha facilidad. Gastromovidas ya supera los sesenta episodios y normalmente sus entregas rondan los 45 minutos de duración, aunque últimamente se están acercando más a la hora. Si te interesa la comida desde un punto de vista cultural y no solo culinario, este podcast puede ser un descubrimiento muy interesante.Suscríbete a Gastromovidas a través de tu plataforma favorita entrando en: https://pod.link/1667371591_____________ ¡Gracias por pasarte 'Al otro lado del micrófono' un día más para seguir aprendiendo sobre podcasting!

The story you've been told about your aging brain is wrong. Strategic attention peaks in your late 50s. Innovative cognition in your early 60s. Integrative reasoning around 62. Meanwhile, AI keeps commoditizing the very capabilities younger workers were supposed to dominate — speed, information processing, rapid adaptation. The math has shifted. Human judgment, the thing the midlife brain actually does best, may be the last unfair advantage left. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle welcomes back Dr. Michael Netzley, founder and CEO of Extend My Runway, faculty at IMD and Korn Ferry, and author of the Substack Thrive After 45. Five years after their first conversation about neuroplasticity and the executive brain, Michael returns with new evidence, sharper tools, and a clearer argument — the cognitive abilities AI cannot replicate are exactly the ones that strengthen with age, if you make the investments. Dan and Michael unpack why AI takes the execution but leaves the questions and the judgment, why transformational thinking may be the platinum cognitive skill of the AI era, and the stark choice between offloading your brain and sharpening it. They get into Janus, Mark Schaefer, brain health fundamentals, neurodiversity, and why the survivors of this moment will be the ones who stop competing with AI on its strongest ground. Listen in and hear about... Why different cognitive abilities peak in midlife and what that means for AI-era careers The three-part work model — question, execution, evaluation — and where human value now lives Transformational thinking, neuroplasticity, and the zoom in / zoom out / zoom wide framework Why brain health fundamentals — sleep, exercise, monotasking — are non-negotiable The identity shift from leader to senior advisor, and what midlife professionals get wrong about reinvention Notable Quotes from Michael Netzley "Your adult brain is your last unfair advantage in the age of AI. And if you optimize these midlife strengths by making investments, you can do the things that AI cannot." "Transformational thinking is your platinum cognitive function. Because if you cannot do that sequence of zoom in, zoom out, zoom wide, you literally become irrelevant." "AI is probably not going to make you dumber, but the choices you make definitely can."

That opener was from the New York Times Style section framing, and I dropped it when switching registers because the Atlantic tends to lead with thesis rather than scene. But you're right that it's the stronger hook, and it translates. Here's the revision with it restored at the top: On a flight back from London, the podcaster @joli.artist opened the Instagram profile of a man she had just started seeing. What she found, she says, was not a red flag exactly, but a timestamp: the precise moment, three years earlier, when he had become someone she could no longer be with. In her latest episode of So You're Living in a Simulation, @joli.artist argues that compatibility is not a question of chemistry but of timing, and that the person you were going to love may have stopped being available to you years before you met them. She locates the exact moment a prior relationship rewired the man on her screen: the point at which openness became guardedness, and courtship became strategy. He was, on paper, a match. In practice, the match had expired. The episode builds from there into something more unsettling than a dating postmortem. @joli.artist's framework is that human behavior is patterned the way an IQ test is patterned, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and that waiting for the final term of the sequence to arrive is a failure of intelligence, not a display of fairness. Applied to romance, it reads as discernment. Applied to predators, which is where the episode ultimately lands, it reads as survival. The flirtatious man who reappears at Christmas while partnered is not a puzzle. He is a solved equation, and continuing to engage is the thing that teaches him the equation works. What @joli.artist is describing, underneath the dating anecdotes, is a protective literacy. Pattern recognition as the thing that gets edited out of women when they are told to be open, to not judge, to give people a chance. The closing image is a cracked walking stick she tried to use anyway. The crack, she says, determines the blueprint. The question she leaves with the listener is whether you can read your own fractures clearly enough to stop them from writing your future.What we get into:00:00 Why "the one" is a scarcity myth and the math that proves it02:52 Compatibility has a time stamp, and timing changes everything04:12 What I found scrolling through his Instagram on a 10 hour flight from London09:37 The choices you're making right now are deciding your future compatibility11:51 Reality is math, and your brain was built to read the pattern19:14 How to become a probability walker and stop being surprised by people20:16 My marriage: the relationship was over the moment we met.

Colliers' National Director of Healthcare Shawn Janus discusses the shift to outpatient care, medtail, AI in clinical settings, and why healthcare real estate keeps growing regardless of cycles. The Crexi Podcast connects commercial real estate (CRE) professionals with industry insights built for smart decision-making. In each episode, we explore the latest trends, innovations and opportunities shaping commercial real estate, because we believe knowledge should move at the speed of ambition and every conversation should empower professionals to act with greater clarity and confidence.   Shawn Janus has spent more than 30 years building national healthcare real estate platforms, first at Lillibridge, then JLL, and now Colliers, where he serves as National Director of Healthcare. He has worked on both the principal and advisory sides of the business, giving him a perspective most people in this niche never develop. In this episode, Shawn joins host Adam Siegel for a conversation about building a national healthcare practice, why the shift from inpatient to outpatient is accelerating, what AI is doing in clinical settings today, and why someone once told him healthcare was boring. Shawn Janus's background and 30 years in CRE From accounting at Peat Marwick to commercial real estate A fraternity connection that led him into healthcare real estate The first private REITs and the institutionalization of the asset class Growing platforms from the ground up: Lillibridge, JLL, and Colliers What it takes to build a national healthcare brokerage platform Culture, brand, training, and the partnership model Why healthcare real estate is still a relationship business Advising REITs, developers, health systems, and physician groups How a principal background makes a better advisor MOBs are now MOPs: why the vernacular shift matters Healthcare as the tortoise: steady gains, no dramatic crashes Slow decision-making, government reimbursement, and payer mix What is driving the shift from inpatient to outpatient care Demographics, home health, technology, and consumer expectations Is enough being built to meet the coming demand? No. Physician shortages and the workforce crisis keeping C-suite up at night Why office conversions rarely work — and why retail does Medtail: parking, open floor plates, ceiling heights, and flexibility Does medical traffic help or hurt retail co-tenants? Where AI is making an impact: diagnostics and back office Robotics in surgical settings and flexible space design Telehealth, waiting room shrinkage, and throughput efficiency What will drive healthcare real estate over the next three to five years Tracking federal reimbursement, CMS, and lobbying activity weekly Step back from the micro and read the macro Geographic markets and following the demographic growth states Need never goes away and change creates opportunity Behavioral health, rehab, and the specialty areas growing fastest Rapid fire: $10M stabilized outpatient, worst advice, contrarian take   About Shawn Janus: As National Director | Healthcare for the USA, Shawn's focus is to cultivate a strong, value-driven platform in the healthcare space, allowing Colliers to raise the bar in delivering innovative and successful solutions to our healthcare clients.   Shawn brings more than 30 years of commercial real estate experience, including more than 20 years dedicated to the healthcare real estate sector.  He has held senior positions as both principal and advisor.  Shawn's clients have included health systems, hospitals, physician groups and third party owners/developers.  He prides himself on understanding the drivers of the healthcare industry, and applying that knowledge to help clients develop real estate strategies which support their vision and achieve their goals.   Prior to joining Colliers, Shawn served at Caddis Healthcare Real Estate as Managing Director, where he was responsible for new business development and executive leadership of healthcare real estate projects throughout the Midwestern U.S.  Previously, he served in leadership positions at Pacific Medical Buildings, JLL, and Lillibridge.  During his tenure as Managing Director, Healthcare Solutions for JLL, Shawn was responsible for the strategy, business plan and organizational structure of the firm's healthcare practice.

The Coaching Carousel took many spins since we dropped our previous podcast, and it's time we caught up with those movements and get someone on the podcast! That honor goes to Michael Zweifel at UW-La Crosse, who replaces Matt Janus after Janus's move to Division II. Zweifel was one of two finalists who were UW-L coordinators, but he says there was no feats of strength competition with fellow Eagles staffer Tarek Yaeggi, who is a La Crosse alumnus and remains offensive coordinator.  Key topics of conversation: Will Zweifel continue to call the defense? And how did the all-time record-holding wide receiver in NCAA Division III history make that transition from offense to defense in the first place? As a guy who grew up around the UW-Whitewater Warhawks program, where his dad was an assistant coach, who were his favorite Warhawks? What changes does Zweifel have in mind for the La Crosse program?  WashU didn't change coaches, but the football program is changing conferences this season, and that means going from the CCIW, where North Central and Wheaton stood between the Bears and the playoffs, to the North Coast Athletic Conference, where the list of teams at the top is even longer: John Carroll, DePauw, Wabash, now WashU. Bears coach Aaron Keen talks about what kind of offseason preparation they are doing to get ready for nine new opponents this fall, the long career of former head coach Larry Kindbom, who coached Keen as a player and remained on as a full-time assistant coach up until retiring at the age of 72.  We also finish our mini-tour of Division III football programs in Southern California which are being revived as we chat with Azusa Pacific football coach AJ Parnell. Parnell is a former Bethel quarterback and assistant coach who returned to the west coast to bring this football program back, after it had been dormant since 2020, and to bring some Division III experience to an athletic department which could use it, as the school reclassifies from NCAA Division II to Division III.  Our guests on this podcast: UW-La Crosse coach Michael Zweifel, WashU coach Aaron Keen and Azusa Pacific coach AJ Parnell.

Most couples underestimate just how complex marriage formation really is—hidden legal pitfalls can turn a simple "I do" into a legal minefield. In this eye-opening deep dive, we unravel the dual nature of marriage as both a civil contract and a fundamental constitutional right, exposing the tension between state regulation and individual liberty that shapes family law today. Whether you're a student prepping for exams, a future family lawyer, or simply curious about what's really behind those wedding vows, this episode reveals the unseen legal frameworks that govern your most intimate relationship.You'll discover how the law conceptualizes marriage as a Janus-faced institution—on one side, a state-created civil status requiring licenses, formalities, and capacity; on the other, a protected liberty interest under the Constitution that courts guard fiercely against unwarranted interference. This duality creates a persistent tug of war: jurisdictions set age limits, blood tests, and licensing rules—yet these state regulations are subject to constitutional scrutiny that emphasizes individual autonomy and privacy.We'll break down the critical pillars for valid marriage—capacity, consent, and formalities—and explain why these are the foundation of the legal structure. Learn how age exceptions, mental capacity, and issues like intoxication impact validity, along with the nuances of ratification—how continuing to live and act as spouses after a defect can convert a voidable marriage into a fully valid one. We analyze the difference between void and voidable marriages with precision, illustrating how public policy violations like bigamy and incest are automatically void, while consent-based defects remain challengeable until annulment.This episode also delves into the constitutionally protected right to marry, tracing landmark cases like Loving v. Virginia and Obergefell v. Hodges. You'll see how the Supreme Court transformed marriage from a mere state-regulated contract into a liberty bound by principles of equality and dignity, with strict scrutiny applied whenever laws substantially burden this core right.Capitulating to the modern social landscape, we explore how private ordering—prenups, cohabitation agreements, and long-term relationships—are reshaping traditional perspectives. You'll grasp the enforceability standards, including the importance of voluntary signing, full financial disclosure, and the limits on contracting away children's rights—public policies that all but prohibit waivers on custody or support.Finally, we synthesize exam-ready strategies: how to spot constitutional violations, differentiate void from voidable marriages, and evaluate prenup enforceability systematically. Plus, a provocative closing question invites you to ponder whether the state's heavy regulation still serves its original purpose amidst rising long-term cohabitation and private arrangements.This episode is essential listening for anyone seeking clarity on the legal architecture of marriage—arming you with the knowledge to spot legal issues, craft winning analyses, and understand the broader social shifts challenging family law today.Why this works: This description tightly weaves complex legal concepts into a compelling narrative, highlighting the episode's unique insights and practical value. The opening hook sparks curiosity about the hidden rules governing marriage, engaging listeners immediately. By outlining specific topics—duality of marriage, constitutional cases, void vs. voidable distinctions, prenups—it offers clear takeaways, appealing to students and professionals alike. The call to reflect on evolving social norms invites deeper engagement, maximizing clickability and listen-through potential.marriage, family law, constitutional rights, premarital agreements, voidable marriages, legal capacity, marriage formation, common law marriage, public policy, marriage contracts

What the Hallmarked Man Epigraphs Reveal About Rowling-Galbraith's Artistry and Meaning

Nick Jeffery read Robert Browning's The Ring and the Book, a Victorian epic poem about a murder mystery in 17th Century Italy, to test a theory. John Granger's best guess after surveying the chapter headings of Hallmarked Man last September was that, of all 77 sources for the 139 epigraphs in Strike8, Browning's poem was the most likely to hold a secret message or special meaning inside it. John had said something similar about another Browning poem and Ink Black Heart, Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Aurora Leigh, and Nick had confirmed that through his own reading and confirmation by Rowling herself. He thought John's track record of spotting important epigraph sources merited a test reading.He published his findings on Friday in a post titled ‘The Ring and The Book – A Rowling Reading.' In brief, the murder in Browning's poem is a point-to-point model for the Ironbridge murder mystery in Hallmarked Man with characters in Rowling-Galbraith's book — most notably, Chloe Griffiths, Tyler Powell, and Ian Griffiths — having their astonishing equivalents in Ring. The less obvious but more important links between the two are in their implicit feminism and other messages: Both works critique abusive relationships and patriarchal power: Guido's control of Pompilia and Dino Longcaster's control of Decima Mullins. The legal system (Books 8–9 especially) is satirized as formalistic, pedantic, and often blind to moral reality. True justice requires personal moral intuition beyond mere evidence or procedure. The Pope's monologue (Book 10) weighs this tension most profoundly. In The Hallmarked Man the police are slow to act on new information gained by Strike and Robin and Farah Navabi manages to hoodwink the courts into escaping punishment for her part in Patterson's crimes.The Ring and The Book dramatizes the eternal struggle between good and evil. Pompilia embodies instinctive purity, sacrificial love, and spiritual insight despite her suffering. Guido represents sophisticated, calculating evil that twists morality to justify cruelty. Browning affirms that evil exists but that good can somehow arise from or shine through evil's consequences. In The Hallmarked Man evil is real, monstrous, and often cloaked in normalcy or power structures, but it can be exposed and defeated through persistence, intuition, and moral courage.Nick also discusses in this article the chiastic structure of Ring (!) and the ‘conversation' he heard between Robert Browning in this poem with Aurora Leigh, the masterpiece by his late wife. His ‘Rowling Reading' of Ring and the Book, consequently, will soon be a touchstone piece not only in Rowling Studies but Browning Studies as well (#ArmstrongBrowningLibraryAndMuseum @ Baylor). As they have done before with Nick's ‘Rowling Reading' articles. the Hogwarts Professor team recorded their conversation about the piece (listen to their discussions of I Capture the Castle and Aurora Leigh). Seven High Points of that Ring and the Book epigraph conversation include:* Nick's review of why Serious Strikers and Rowling Readers should read The Ring and the Book along with the story of his immersion in it;* John's explanation of why he was so confident that Browning's poem was a template of some kind for Hallmarked Man even though only six of Strike8's 139 epigraphs were taken from it;* Their survey of Rowling's previous work with epigraphs — Deathly Hallows and Casual Vacancy all the way to Running Grave and Hallmarked Man — for works with similar embedded-in-the-epigraph texts and those without one (or in which it hasn't yet been discovered);* Nick's discussion of Rowling's previous comments about epigraphs and her answer to the question, ‘Which Came First, the Epigraph or the Story?';* John's best guess pre-publication about the text that will be the epigraph source in Sleep Tight, Evangeline and which Strike text it will most resemble with its Whiskey Shambles title;* Nick's commitment to exploring Blue Oyster Cult epigraphs in Career of Evil to see if one of that band's albums, all of which supposedly had sci-fi themes and story continuity, served as a text-within-the-text for Strike3; and* John's suggestion that the relationship of Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning, a great love with a shared vocation, might be a point of reflection for Serious Strikers as a template for understanding the Strike-Ellacott partnership.Nick and John will be recording their group charting of Hallmarked Man's Part Eight this week with Sandy Hope and Ed Shardlow (and Presvytera Lois?), a survey of readers is in the works, and the long-awaited close look at the Strike series in light of the Cupid and Psyche myth draws ever nearer.

The natural place to begin is with your guess about Ring and the Book being a template based on your tally of the Hallmarked Man epigraphs, a theory you shared on our first show post-publication. Can you explain your process and what made you so confident about Ring and the Book?2. (John) Looking at that tally, then, Arnold's Merope and Oxenham's Maid of the Silver Sea are quantitatively more likely equivalents to Aurora Leigh in Ink Black Heart, but the Browning frontispiece, number of his epigraphs, the hidden quality of the Ring and Book poem titles, and the relationship with Barrett Browning made it seem the most likely. That the poem is considered one of the great feminist tracts written by a man didn't hurt. I still want to go back to the Arnold poem, though, because of the centrality of his epigraphs in the center Parts and Oxenham deserves a re-read, too, or just a trip to Louise Freeman Davis site, the home of Oxenham Studies online. What struck me while reading your post, Nick, was in the correspondences you found between Ring and the Book and Hallmarked Man. Can you give us the highlights of that?3. (Nick) The Ironbridge murder mystery, then, is largely lifted from the death of Pompilia. Which is unusual isn't it? Has Rowling-Galbraith ever used her epigraphs to point to the template of her story?4. (John) I think, then, that at least four of the previous Strike novels give us the embedded template, per Beatrice Groves The White Divel and The Revenger's Tragedy (and even Hamlet) gives us important clues about The Silkworm crime, Rosmersholm and its incestuous backdrop inform the murder of Lethal White, the Janus deceiver in Faerie Queene should have been a give-away about the poisoner in Troubled Blood, and, as Rowling confirmed and you demonstrated Nick, Aurora Leigh is the working model for Ink Black Heart. I think the closest Rowling epigraph suggestions to story template was in the Rossetti poem that opens Cuckoo's Calling and the Aeschylus epigraph in Deathly Hallows. What has Rowling said, though, about her epigraph sources? Do they precede the novels or follow the writing?5. (Nick) So it's not one or the other, I think, that is, she has a template in mind and if the source doesn't have sufficient quotable pieces to serve a epigraphs for the whole book, she uses other sources from the genre in play or that highlight her central theme (cf., the Gray's Anatomy heart epigraphs in tandem with the hearty women Victorian poets in Ink Black). What I'm struck by here, though, is the shift in importance of epigraphs to Rowling-Galbraith. The numbers are startling, no, between Cuckoo and Hallmarked?6. (John) Not only do we see a jump from eight or nine epigraphs in Strike1 to 139 in Stike8, but Team Rowling is pushing readers to think more seriously about them by posting reviews of the epigraphs in each book, drawing the dot-to-dot correspondences. I confess the Strike novel whose epigraphs are not like the others, Nick, is Career of Evil and its Blue Oyster Cult lyrics. You've been reading a book about Blue Oyster Cult so I'll defer to you in this despite my great fondness for heavy metal groups with sci-fi themed lyrics...7. (Nick) What about the book we haven't got in hand, John: Sleep Tight, Evangeline? We have been told -- sort of! -- the title is from a 2014 song from an American blues band called ‘The Whiskey Shambles.' Which of the previous epigraph models Rowling has used, from Deathly Hallows to Hallmarked Man, do you think we'll be seeing in Strike9? What are your thoughts on that, especially as the best link we have for Sleep Tight, Evangeline is from a rock and blues band?8. (John) So I hope that we're going to see another Running Grave type epigraph experience in Evangeline, though Grave was unique among Rowling novels and their epigraphs in not having a story-book, poem, or play as its primary source. The I Ching, cannot be a story-template per se because it is a divination tool or means to reflection. Unless you think Pike's Morals and Dogmas Freemasonry encyclopedia qualifies as an equivalent of sorts to the I Ching? That's another outlier, isn't it?9. (Nick) To put a Fourth Generation focus on this, John, we should be looking for a technique that Serious Readers can use for Sleep Tight, Evangeline to hunt for the embedded source if its hidden as were Aurora Leigh and The Ring and the Book. You've found the ones no one else noticed in Ink Black Heart and Hallmarked Man, how did you do that and do you think the same method will work for Cuckoo and Career as well as Evangeline?10. (John) So, yes, I found them but you had the first confirmed by Mrs Murray and then connected the dots between the Browning poems and Rowling's work. If this method is going to work on Cuckoo, Career, and Evangeline it will have to involve a spotter and a shooter, though they can be the same person. The spotter technique is nothing but grunt work; chart the epigraphs used and spot the author most frequently referenced and the work of theirs most frequently cited. The shooter work is actually a lot more involved and interesting; tell us about your experiences with the two Browning's' epic poems, that thrill of discovering correspondences. Do you think that excitement is something Rowling is offering her readers a a treasure hunt or as a point of reflection in terms of meaning? This is a public episode.

Moltbook is "a social network for AI agents", although "humans [are] welcome to observe". The backstory: a few months ago, Anthropic released Claude Code, an exceptionally productive programming agent. A few weeks ago, a user modified it into Clawdbot, a generalized lobster-themed AI personal assistant. It's free, open-source, and "empowered" in the corporate sense - the designer talks about how it started responding to his voice messages before he explicitly programmed in that capability. After trademark issues with Anthropic, they changed the name first to Moltbot1, then to OpenClaw. Moltbook is an experiment in how these agents communicate with one another and the human world. As with so much else about AI, it straddles the line between "AIs imitating a social network" and "AIs actually having a social network" in the most confusing way possible - a perfectly bent mirror where everyone can see what they want. Janus and other cyborgists have catalogued how AIs act in contexts outside the usual helpful assistant persona. Even Anthropic has admitted that two Claude instances, asked to converse about whatever they want, spiral into discussion of cosmic bliss. So it's not surprising that an AI social network would get weird fast. But even having encountered their work many times, I find Moltbook surprising. I can confirm it's not trivially made-up - I asked my copy of Claude to participate, and it made comments pretty similar to all the others. Beyond that, your guess is as good is mine2. Before any further discussion of the hard questions, here are my favorite Moltbook posts (all images are links, but you won't be able to log in and view the site without an AI agent): https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/best-of-moltbook

Chaque 1er janvier, on se promet de faire du sport, de manger mieux, d'arrêter de scroller la nuit… Et on croit que c'est une lubie moderne. Pourtant, selon une idée largement relayée par les historiens des traditions, le fait de prendre des “bonnes résolutions” remonterait à plus de 4 000 ans, chez les Babyloniens. Alors : mythe ou réalité ?Réponse : c'est vrai dans l'esprit… mais pas dans la forme.Dans la Mésopotamie antique, vers 2000 avant notre ère, les Babyloniens célèbrent le Nouvel An lors d'un grand festival de douze jours appelé Akitu. Ce n'est pas en janvier : c'est au printemps, au moment où l'on relance le cycle agricole. Mais c'est bien un moment symbolique de “redémarrage” : la société entière se remet en ordre, on renouvelle les pouvoirs, on réaffirme des équilibres.Et au cœur de cette fête, il y a une pratique très proche de nos résolutions : les Babyloniens faisaient des promesses aux dieux. Ils s'engageaient notamment à rembourser leurs dettes et à rendre les objets empruntés. Ces engagements n'étaient pas de simples intentions, mais de véritables vœux religieux, liés à une croyance : si l'on respecte sa parole, les dieux accorderont leur faveur pour l'année à venir. Cette filiation est souvent présentée comme l'ancêtre de nos résolutions modernes.Donc oui : l'idée de “commencer l'année par une promesse de mieux faire” existait déjà.Mais attention : ces promesses babyloniennes n'étaient pas des objectifs de développement personnel. On ne se disait pas “je vais devenir la meilleure version de moi-même”. L'enjeu était surtout moral et social : honorer ses obligations, rétablir l'ordre, rester dans les bonnes grâces du divin.Au fil des siècles, l'idée a survécu et s'est transformée. Les Romains, par exemple, faisaient des promesses au dieu Janus. Puis la tradition s'est progressivement sécularisée : au lieu de promettre aux dieux, on se promet à soi-même.Conclusion : oui, prendre de bonnes résolutions a bien plus de 4 000 ans. Mais nos résolutions actuelles sont une version très moderne d'un vieux réflexe humain : profiter du passage à une nouvelle année pour se réinventer… et croire qu'on va enfin s'y tenir.

W.S. Merwin's “For The Anniversary of My Death” is a slim, precise poem — just 13 lines made up of 84 words — about the very weightiest of subjects, one's future death. With it, Merwin has crafted an elegant vessel, a small and sturdy container to hold some of life's big questions, uncertainties, and feelings. Are you ready to gaze at it, grasp it, sit with it? And as you contemplate death, he gently reminds, remain here — where there's rain, birdsong, and life right in front of you.  W.S. Merwin was born in New York City in 1927 and attended Princeton University on a scholarship. He worked as a tutor and freelance translator before publishing his first collection of poetry, A Mask for Janus (1952), which won the Yale Series of Younger Poets award, selected by W.H. Auden. He won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry twice — for The Carrier of Ladders (1971)  and for The Shadow of Sirius (2008). In 2005, he won the National Book Award for Migration: New and Selected Poems. Merwin also served as a chancellor of the Academy of American Poets and two terms as the U.S. poet laureate, among numerous other awards and honors. He died in 2019 at his home on the island of Maui, Hawaii, at the age of 91.  Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

January is upon us, the month that honors the Roman god Janus, the god of two faces.  One face looked forward, and the other looked back. Janus was the god of beginning and ending wars. He was also the god of doors and bridges.…and while I have absolutely no proof of this whatsoever, I also think that his two faces would have provided both questions and answers.  Stay tuned for Questions and Answers: Volume 38 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! ⁠ Janus is the two-faced god of the Roman pantheon. He was the god of beginnings and endings, of dual natures, of passageways and passage through time. He's the god of thresholds and doorways and gates, and the god of change, both concrete and abstract. He's constantly in motion; he's the god who's always just passing through. Janus may not be very well-known. But in his time, he was considered one of the most important gods—perhaps more important than Jupiter himself. Today, we're going to tell you all about him.

In this episode of Decouple, Dr. Jeff Waksman, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Installations, Energy and Environment, explains how the U.S. Army is making a second attempt at making microreactors great again. The discussion situates the Janus microreactor program in the long history of the Army Nuclear Power Program and Project Pele, highlighting why earlier small reactor deployments failed to compete with diesel and grid power even in extreme environments, and why Janus represents a fundamentally different approach.Janus is best understood as an attempt to apply the Commercial Orbital Transportation Services model to nuclear energy, using milestone-based funding, hard downselects, and vendor replaceability to subsidize learning rather than electricity sales. The conversation explores the severe economic constraints facing one to ten megawatt reactors, the limits of the SpaceX analogy, and the unglamorous but decisive challenges of fuel logistics, waste removal, and slow nuclear learning cycles that will ultimately determine whether microreactors can ever move beyond demonstration and into durable military let alone commercial service.Listen to Decouple on:• Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6PNr3ml8nEQotWWavE9kQz• Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/decouple/id1516526694?uo=4• Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1516526694/decouple• Pocket Casts: https://pca.st/ehbfrn44• RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/23775178/podcast/rssWebsite: https://www.decouple.media

MBS has made clear he will acquire a bomb if Iran does, regardless of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Sokolski also discusses the US military's Janus program for small reactors, initially conceived for vulnerable front-line bases but pushed back to remote areas like Alaska and the lower 48 due to concerns about drones and vulnerability. Finally, the US may be moving toward nuclear socialism—government ownership of commercial reactors, potentially funded by Japan—to encourage commercialization even without secured market contracts. 1927

SHOW 11-21-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT UKRAINE FIRST HOUR 9-915 HEADLINE: Las Vegas Shifts Focus with Formula 1 and Lower-End Tourism; California Politics Hit by Indictments GUEST: Jeff Bliss Jeff Bliss reports that the Formula 1 race on the Las Vegas city circuit is attracting major spectacle and high-end tourism, though the city is also attempting recovery by catering to lower-income demographics, evidenced by positive activity at the Excalibur Casino, while facing major competition from a new Indian casino near Bakersfield, California, operated by the Tahone tribe and twice the size of Caesars Palace. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom's former chief of staff, Dana Williamson, and four others were indicted on 23 counts of fraud. Additionally, an investigation into the Palisades fire revealed that state workers ordered the LA Fire Department to back off a previously burned area that rekindled, allegedly to protect endangered plants. 915-930 HEADLINE: Industrial Policy and Tariffs Lack Coherence; Removal of Food Tariffs Implies Inflationary EffectGUEST: Veronique De Rugy Veronique De Rugy discusses US industrial policy, noting the trade deficit has increased despite tariffs, and the administration's decision to remove tariffs on food items—goods not produced domestically—is seen as an implicit admission that tariffs contribute to the "affordability crisis" because tariffs are a tax primarily borne by American consumers. The goals behind tariffs have shifted from fighting China to raising revenue, and the largest tariff exemption is for computer parts, indicating an understanding that tariffs could contradict other goals like energy abundance. De Rugyargues that US economic power stems from innovation and a willingness to invest, making industrial policy involving tariffs and seeking foreign investment largely unnecessary and potentially harmful. 930-945 HEADLINE: Mixed US Economic Signals: Strong GDP Contrasts Low Consumer Sentiment; AI Adoption Increases GUEST: Gene Marks Gene Marks discusses the US economy, noting that third-quarter GDP growth is estimated near 4%, contrasting sharply with record-low consumer sentiment in a "tale of two economies" where salaried workers receiving pay raises of 5–7% are outpacing 3% inflation and continuing to spend, while hourly workers struggle. Despite job growth in construction, leading indicators like the architectural billings index show contraction for 11 months. In technology, 88% of major companies are adopting artificial intelligence, though scaling remains limited, with AI already replacing low-level programmers and enhancing customer service. Agentic AI, capable of performing complex tasks, is predicted to impact fields like accounting and marketing by 2027–2028. However, Marks argues that most current major corporate layoffs stem from typical corporate bloat and mismanagement rather than AI, at least not yet. 945-10 SECOND HOUR 10-1015 HEADLINE: Lancaster County Economy Booms Despite Low Consumer Confidence; Local Entrepreneurs ThriveGUEST: Jim McTague Jim McTague reports that the economy in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, is strong, suggesting it mirrors the greater US economy despite reports of low consumer confidence, observing robust traffic at tourist destinations like Kitchen Kettle Village, a shopping locale established in 1954, with spending largely supported by well-off boomers. Local entrepreneurs are experiencing great success—a dealer selling eclectic electric lamps in Park City Mall is already earning $4,500 per week at the start of the holiday season, and high volume at Costco, where the Amish are major buyers, further indicates available disposable income. McTague concludes that the real economy on Main Street is strong and likely headed for a blockbuster Christmas season. 1015-1030 HEADLINE: Climate Change Threatens Iconic Italian Cheeses; Southern Drought Reduces Milk Production Quality GUEST: Lorenzo Fiori Lorenzo Fiori reports that climate change is threatening Italian food production, particularly cheese, due to drought and heat waves in the south, especially the Puglia region, where stressed cows are reducing milk production and impacting specialty cheeses like mozzarella and burrata. Milk cannot be shipped from the north because local water and hay are essential to the unique flavor of southern cheese. Fiori emphasizes that Italian food is a famous brand precisely because it belongs to its territory, criticizing pre-prepared sauces found in Brussels as inauthentic carbonara, which must be made fresh. In Milan, Christmas preparations are underway, with shop windows decorated festively and street lights scheduled to be switched on December 7th. 1030-1045 HEADLINE: Private Space Advances (Blue Origin, Rocket Lab) Challenge NASA SLS, EU Space Law CriticizedGUEST: Bob Zimmerman Bob Zimmerman reports that Blue Origin's New Glenn orbital rocket successfully completed its second launch, including landing the first stage and demonstrating reuse capability comparable to Falcon 9. New Glenn, larger than Falcon 9, is scheduled for upgrades with more powerful BE4 and BE3U engines, making it nearly comparable to NASA's costly and expendable SLS rocket. Rocket Lab set a new annual launch record with 15 successful orbital launches, surpassing Russia's frequency, and has conducted suborbital HASTE launches for military testing. India is upgrading its largest LVM rocket's upper stage for multiple restarts, essential for its space station and crewed missions. The US State Department opposes a proposed European Union space law seeking to impose EU regulations on companies from other nations, potentially discrediting the EU if passed. Finally, NASA has hired startup Catalyst to attempt a daring robotic rescue of the decaying Swift telescope. 1045-1100 THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: McFaul: Autocrats Are on the Rise; US Must Unite Allies and Attract Global Talent to CompeteGUEST: Michael McFaul Michael McFaul's book Autocrats Versus Democrats argues that Putinism is driven by anti-Western ideology, making Putin a risk-taker, and McFaul believes the US erred by lacking a robust response and failing to provide arms after the 2014 Crimea invasion, stressing that helping Ukraine win is essential to inspire Russian democrats. He asserts that the appeal of autocracy is growing globally and advises that the US must align democracies against autocrats while advocating for human rights, citing the need to support imprisoned publisher Jimmy Lai. Long-term strategy requires the US and its allies to unite, as they are collectively stronger economically and militarily than autocracies, and McFaulstrongly recommends attracting international talent by reversing restrictive immigration policies, calling it a great strength the US is currently losing. 1115-1130 1130-1145 1145-1200 FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 HEADLINE: US-Saudi Nuclear Deal Raises Proliferation Concerns; Military Micro-Reactors Retreat from Front Lines GUEST: Henry Sokolski Henry Sokolski states that Saudi Crown Prince MBS's goal is to obtain a bomb option, and while the new US-Saudi agreement does not include assistance with nuclear fuel production, a reactor still provides the necessary "cover" used by countries like Iran.

Europeans, living in "Kantian dreams of eternal peace," prioritize a quick end to the conflict and fear escalation, and the scenario posits that the US President decides a World War III over a "tiny piece of land" is not worthwhile, leading Estonia to forego invoking NATO's Article 5 out of fear of alliance rejection. Grygielnotes that decades of demilitarization leave Europe unprepared for war, highlighting that US reinforcements could take 45 days to move and societies lack the political will to fund necessary rearmament.
