In today’s episode, we chat about system architecture, Ruby, Elixir, and everything in between with Greg Mefford, the senior back-end engineer for the Bleacher Report. We open the conversation by asking Greg about his start in coding, leading to a story about how Greg was that bored kid pressuring a math teacher to teach him QBasic. He shares how he fell in love with Ruby before discovering Elixir and Nerves. Having faced some challenges when learning Nerves, Greg talks about how he began documenting his pain points and writing documents to help onboard newcomers. We discuss Greg’s work with Nerves, his project aspirations, and his recommended resources for anyone looking to get into Nerves or Elixir. After providing his hot take on the latest Code BEAM V conference, we ask Greg what system architecture means to him. From there we get super meta about the meaning of architecture and what it means to translate design into practice. We touch on the struggle of understanding domain-driven design and Greg’s approach to pre-code planning before delving into how the Bleacher Report is set up. As Greg goes into details, you’ll hear why their servers now run on Elixir and not Ruby. Near the end of the episode, we talk about Poncho versus Umbrella apps, and Greg shares his passion for multi-user dungeons (MUDs). Tune in to learn more about Greg and his role in the Elixir and Nerves landscape. Key Points From This Episode: Greg’s start in coding and his transition from electronics design into IT. Why Greg loves Ruby and how he discovered the magic of Elixir. Greg’s contribution to the Elixir and Nerves community by helping onboard newcomers. What Greg’s job as a senior engineer for Bleacher Report looks like. Greg recommends resources for beginners getting into Nerves and Elixir. Creating a kid’s game using Nerves and Greg’s Blinkchain library. Greg’s take on the Code BEAM V conference and hating on the Whova app. What architecture means to Greg. This one gets deep. How translating designs into software has changed over the years. Why Greg struggles with the idea of domain-driven design. The state of Extreme Programming practices and how they synergize together. How Greg views pre-code planning; something that’s become his specialty within his latest job. The many elements that contribute to how the Bleacher Report’s IT is set up. Ruby servers versus Elixir servers and why the Bleacher Report uses Elixir. Why the Poncho system was designed to fix Nerves issues not covered by Umbrella apps. Greg’s history creating multi-user dungeons (MUDs) and playing DragonRealm.

7-Eleven owner to buy US petrol station chain for $21B The owner of the Japanese retail giant, 7-Eleven, is buying the US petrol station chain, Speedway, for 21-billion- dollars. The deal will add 4-thousand outlets to the grocery chain's existing 9-thousand- 800 shops in the US and Canada. 7-Eleven's profits fell 73-percent in the second quarter compared to last year becuase of the pandemic. HSBC's first-half profit plunges 65% to $4.3B on bad loans Profits at Europe's biggest bank, HSBC, plummeted 65-percent to 4.3-billion- dollars in the January to June period compared to last year. The lender has had to ease repayment terms on 27-billion- dollars' worth of loans. It's also setting aside 13-billion- dollars for bad loans, as a rising number of its clients suffer during the outbreak. US department store Lord & Taylor files for bankruptcy And one of America's oldest department stores, Lord & Taylor, is filing for bankruptcy. Its iconic flagship store on New York's FIfth Avenue was auctioned-off last year. Now its French owner, Le Tote, is looking for a buyer for the remaining 37-outlets. Meanwhile, Texas-based Tailored Brands is also restructuring nearly 700-million- dollars in debt.

eMarketer principal analyst Andrew Lipsman discusses how the coronavirus pandemic will affect retail and the balance of power between Amazon and the competition. He then talks about eBay appointing a new CEO, 'Amazon Shipping' being put on hold and Le Tote and Lord & Taylor going online-only.

Want to listen to anything NOT about COVID-19? We got the episode for you! Eduardo Porter (@portereduardo) joins Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) to talk about a much lighter subject: the history of racism in class divides and how it still affects us today. They talk about the hopes we’ve had in the past for a racially diverse working class coalition and how it’s been destroyed time and time again by exclusive language. Afterwards, they talk about how our social welfare will probably not cut it for everyone over the coming weeks as we all lose our jobs to this virus. Finally, they talk about what we can do to stay positive when tackling seemingly unsolvable issues.  Learn more about Eduardo’s book, American Poison.

What kind of modern conveniences do you enjoy? In today’s world, if you want it, there’s a subscription service for it! Today, Leslie and Leslyn share the subscription services they are loving at the moment with a few other great shout-outs. Leslie and Leslyn start out the episode talking about Stitch Fix a personal styling subscription service that comes right to your door! They both use this service and have the Style Pass. It eliminates the need to even go to the mall, as you are getting hand selected pieces that your stylist thinks you’ll love. You can get a box whenever you want, the box includes 5 items that can be anything from clothing, shoes, or accessories. Leslie prefers to get just 5 clothing items, making Stitch Fix an incredibly flexible and customizable service. If you do not have the Styling Pass, there is a $20 styling fee applied to every box that goes towards whatever you keep, and if you keep all 5 items you get an extra 25% off! If you are interested in the Style Pass, you pay $50 a year, receive $50 on your first order, and are never charged a styling fee or to send any of the items back!Leslie also has the subscription service, Little Passports, for her children. Little Passports is divided into different age categories and sent in a “little suitcase”. The first box sends you basic items such as a coin collector. Each box after that, every month, is to teach your kids all about a new country!There are a few other clothing subscriptions that are mentioned one being Nordstrom’s Trunk Club that Leslyn says is similar to Stitch Fix. Le Tote is a rental clothing subscription that allows you to pick items and them send back after you wear them for whatever event you are planning! Rent the Runway is a little more elegant subscription as it allows you to rent designer dresses for special occasions. With Rent the Runway, you choose two sizes and are sent both dresses, you wear the one that fits and send them both back after your event!The meal service that Leslie and Leslyn love is Hello Fresh. For Leslyn, she orders two meals every other week giving her 4 servings in two weeks. After trying all the meal services, this was the one that worked best for her. You get stuck eating the same recipes, you put yourself in a burn out of the same food for months. Hello Fresh facilitates in putting variety into your meals. Everything is included, spices and all, portioned correctly so you don’t waste. It’s about $9 a meal, but you are getting restaurant quality and relatively healthy food in your own home!Leslyn also brings up one of her favorites, Naked Wines Club which is a great convenience for her as she’s so busy. It charges $40 a month and Leslyn lets that build and once a quarter buys a crate of wine. By doing this, she is usually getting a free bottle or two for buying in such large quantity! This is a great subscription service as it introduces you to wines from all over the world and is a nice way to try lots of different wines.Leslie’s next recommendation is Mighty Nest, which is only $10 a month and sends you different green, healthy home products. She has found some of the coolest products through this subscription service and actually is offering the first giveaway on one of their products!Try This at Home’s first giveaway showcases one of Leslie’s favorite products from Mighty Nest. It’s called a Spaghetti Scrub; this is an environmentally friendly sponge alternative. It’s a great product as it’s environmentally conscious, anti-bacterial, and doesn’t scratch your dishes! This sponge alternative is cost-effective and last up to six months. If you would like a Spaghetti Scrub, reach out on any of our social media platforms or on the website telling us, “I want a spaghetti scrubber!” We will put your name into a drawing for a free Spaghetti Scrub!A mega convenience for Leslyn is grocery delivery. Leslyn is an incredibly busy person and let’s face it, who actually likes to grocery shop? It can be one of the most frustrating things especially when you know you could be doing something more productive. Leslie and Leslyn offer a few services that could help alleviate this errand for you! Instacart cost $14.99 a month with a $30 minimum delivery fee. If you want a more cost-effective delivery service, Walmart offers a $10 a month subscription to have free delivery on every order at a $30 minimum.With all these great subscription services, Leslyn asks the tough question of which is the favorite of all the services in the episode. For Leslie, Mighty Nest is her favorite as it’s cheap and she has found many great products through their service. For Leslyn, food services are her favorite as it helps save her time and money! The biggest pro to these services is the convenience, as they free up time in your schedule and could possibly save you money in the long run.If you are interested in trying Hello Fresh, Leslyn has several coupons for $40 off a Hello Fresh Box—she is happy to give these away to the first few listeners to reach out on social media or the website, she just needs your email address! The Try This at Home of the week is to consider some of these subscription services that we have talked about today and if you’ve used them already, really assess the value that it brings to your life. Or, if you have never tried one before maybe think about trying one that you’re interested in!A few other great subscription services are mentioned in the episode, links can be found below!Subscribe to this channel for new podcasts EVERY WEDNESDAY and Try This at Home!Next Week’s Episode: What is Normal?One of our goals this year is to grow the podcast audience and you can help!We would truly appreciate a share or a shout out if you found the ideas here helpful.Don’t forget, you can always touch base with us personally on our Facebook, Instagram, and our website trythisathomepodcast.comLinks to Look At:Stitch Fixwww.stichfix.com/Little Passportswww.littlepassports.com/Trunk Clubwww.trunkclub.com/Le Totewww.letote.com/Rent the Runwaywww.renttherunway.com/Hello Freshwww.hellofresh.com/Blue Apronwww.blueapron.com/Naked Wineswww.nakedwines.com/Mighty Nestwww.mightynest.com/Fab Fit Funwww.fabfitfun.com/Dollar Shave Clubwww.dollarshaveclub.com/Honest Boxwww.honest.com/Grove Collaborativewww.grove.co/Amazon Subscribe and Savehttps://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=15283820011Instacartwww.instacart.com/Walmart Groceryhttps://grocery.walmart.com/Spaghetti Scrub (Enter to Win in the Giveaway!)https://mightynest.com/shop/green-cleaning/household/dishwashing/spaghetti-scrub-set-of-2Can’t Get Enough?

Rakesh Tondon is the co-founder and CEO of Le Tote, an online clothing rental business that recently acquired Lord & Taylor and opened its first physical location. Tondon shares how Le Tote is disrupting the fashion industry, why it’s opening physical locations and why it’s imperative for retail to continue evolving if it wants to survive. Learn more at retailgetsreal.com.

Le Tote plans to modernize Lord & Taylor’s assets, including integration with Le Tote’s rental business to drive upselling. Retail industry veteran Robert Escobar has signed on to help Le Tote create a roadmap for a supply chain makeover to meet its business objectives. Find out more in this MCM CommerceChat podcast interview. The post How a Supply Chain Makeover Will Help Le Tote Integrate Lord & Taylor appeared first on Multichannel Merchant.

I’m Jeff Tanner, Dean of the Strome College of Business at Old Dominion University and this is a Strome Business Minute. I honestly thought Lord and Taylor was dead and gone but it’s not. Bought by a clothing rental company, Le Tote, in August, the deal included free rent for three years and closing five stores. One of the closures before the sale was the company’s flagship in New York City, which was nearly seven hundred thousand square feet. Lord & Taylor’s previous owner, Hudson Bay, sold the eleven story building to WeWork, a company struggling financially. Let’s hope they got paid in cash. Lord & Taylor’s new owners are now launching a new New York City store, a tiny twenty four hundred square feet or less than one percent of the old store’s footprint. Perhaps this type of reduction is the direction all retailing will take. To learn more, visit odu.edu/business.

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your daily briefing.With your Retail E-Commerce Briefing for today, Wednesday, December 4th, I'm Vincent Phamvan.IntroductionBeauty advent calendars haven’t always been in demand, but as they’ve evolved, beauty brands and retailers are now capitalizing on high consumer interest to drum up new customers for the holidays.First, here are some retail headlines.Lord & Taylor Opens Small-Format Store in NYCAt the beginning of the year, Lord & Taylor closed its massive New York store after more than 100 years in business. Now, the department store will end 2019 by opening a new small-format store in Manhattan this holiday season. The new shop will be just 2,400 square feet, much smaller and tightly curated than its flagship on Fifth Avenue. The small-format store will open for two weeks in mid-December in New York’s SoHo district. This will give Le Tote, the company’s new owner, a chance to re-connect with shoppers in the midst of the busy holiday shopping season.Best Buy Looking to Continue to Scale Fulfillment OptionsBest Buy launched order pickup services in 175 CVS and UPS stores in New York this quarter. According to the company’s CEO, Corie Barry, they are “focused on expanding both our fulfillment options and in-home resources.” Roughly 99 percent of Best Buy customers live in an area where next-day delivery is available, up from 80 percent last quarter. For customers who choose to buy online and pick-up in-store, 80 percent of orders are ready in under 30 minutes. The company is looking to scale the program nationally after the holidays.Cyber Monday Once Again Big Day For AmazonFor Amazon, Cyber Monday was yet again, “the single biggest shopping day in the company’s history, based on the number of items ordered worldwide.” The e-commerce giant also said that its Marketplace sellers sold more items during Cyber Monday than any other 24-hour period in the company’s history. The company noted customers bought a record number of Amazon devices globally over the holiday weekend. The announcement came shortly after Adobe reported Cyber Monday sales hit a record of $9.4 billion dollars in retail this year.Growing Beauty Advent Calendar Craze Boosts Brand Awareness and Customer AcquisitionAdvent calendars are a holiday staple for many households, traditionally filled with chocolates behind 24 small doors. But what about beauty advent calendars? They aren’t a new phenomenon, with some being introduced by companies as early as 2013, but they’ve evolved significantly. They’ve become more sophisticated and elaborate, including higher-value items, and often coming with a premium price tag.Now in its sixth year, Liberty’s beauty advent calendar priced at $277 dollars remains the retailer’s fastest-selling product in its 147-year history. After trialing an advent calendar that sold out within seven minutes, fragrance brand Jo Loves doubled down for 2019 with a Christmas tree calendar that contained exclusive products and brand favorites for $390 dollars. The day that Jo Loves calendar went on sale marked the brand’s biggest e-commerce sales moment to date, bringing in record traffic levels.The beauty advent calendar can be used as a discovery tool for new customers. For a multi-brand retailer like Liberty, the beauty advent calendar offers customers a chance to try new products they wouldn’t have considered before. With a curated mix of popular brands and newer or lesser-known products, Liberty is able to entice customers while also promoting awareness of alternative offerings in the store.It’s also a great way to bring in new customers. For Jo Loves, about 50 percent of calendars were sold to new customers. For Liberty, 56 percent of sales this year also came from new customers. Jo Loves general manager said, “It really gives people who don’t necessarily know the brand the opportunity to try lots of different things within the range.” While currently a UK-centric trend, awareness is starting to grow largely thanks to social media. Nordstrom and Bloomingdales are now selling beauty calendars and Target is offering a $10 dollar bath bomb calendar.ClosingWant to stand out?

Yes, somewhere there's a millennial in Brooklyn writing fake reviews by the truckload. Peter Crosby and Rob Gonzalez talk the dark underbelly of the reviews world plus Lord & Taylor getting snapped up by Le Tote.

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your daily briefing.  IntroductionWith your Retail E-Commerce Briefing for today, Monday, November 11th, I'm Vincent Phamvan.Express just debuted direct-to-consumer brand, UpWest. The company’s new direct-to-consumer brand launch comes at a time when many online companies like Allbirds, Casper, and Glossier, have garnered success. First, here are some retail headlines.Gap Inc. CEO DepartingLong-time Gap Inc. CEO and President, Art Peck, is departing the company. According to a company press release, Board Chairman, Robert Fisher, has taken the job of interim chief executive, effective immediately. Peck’s exit comes just months before Old Navy plans to spin-off from the parent company. Previously, Gap Inc. had said Peck would take the reigns of the new Gap Inc. entity, which includes Gap, Athleta, and other small brands.Le Tote Complete Lord & Taylor AcquisitionFashion rental subscription service, Le Tote, has completed its acquisition of Lord & Taylor. With the deal now closed, Le Tote has become the first digitally native brand to acquire an established brick and mortar retailer. The company has assumed operations of 38 Lord & Taylor stores and the brand’s digital channels. Through its rental platform, Le Tote said it will offer shoppers access to the largest selection of styles and brands in the industry.Ralph Lauren Announces Digital InitiativesIn a press release, Ralph Lauren announced the company is seeking growth through digital initiatives that will include “rental, subscription, and resale models”. Executives from the company said that will include a partnership with Urban Outfitters’ new rental effort, Nuuly. Ralph Lauren’s CEO said that digital initiatives including working with Nuuly and Rent the Runway in apparel rental, and Nordstrom’s Trunk Club in subscriptions, are essential to reaching younger consumers, which he indicated is a key growth tactic.    Express Debuts New Direct-To-Consumer BrandExpress introduced a new direct-to-consumer brand, Upwest. The brand will include casual apparel, loungewear, and sleepwear for men and women, according to a press release. The brand will also debut a mobile pop-up concept in major cities like Chicago, Nashville, and Austin.The company’s new direct-to-consumer brand launch comes at a time when many online companies like Allbirds, Casper, and Glossier, have garnered success. According to a study that came out last year, 81 percent of people said they will make at least one purchase from a direct-to-consumer brand within the next five years. For Express, the new brand could be a way for it to diversify its offerings as many apparel retailers struggle.Additionally, UpWest’s focus on comfort may play to its favor as athleisure continues to be a rare area of growth for retail apparel. Express CEO Tim Baxter said, “While our primary focus remains on returning the Express business to long-term, profitable growth, UpWest brings something new and exciting to the market,”.ClosingThanks for listening to this latest episode of the Retail E-Commerce Briefing.

Goodness, according to Emerson, is where the roots of wisdom are planted. In this episode of Ponderings from the Perch, Momma Bird Priscilla McKinney talks with Baillie Buchanan, cofounder and CRO of Research for Good. Research for Good has a disruptive business model. They specialize in market research sample and fieldwork solutions, but their unique mission provides charitable donations for each response, in addition to compensating the respondents. For the past few years, that charity has been Action Against Hunger. Baillie and Priscilla talk about what motivates respondents to provide the highest quality of feedback, how technology is impacting the market research landscape, and the future of work culture. Research For Good, beginning with only three founders, has grown to over 50 employees as an entirely remote-based business. Baillie says this feat is attributable to accountability, as well as a few technological advancements. They also talk about humanizing data, recognizing survey fatigue, and the awesomeness of Women in Research’s WIRexec. Check out Research for Good, and find Baillie on Twitter and LinkedIn.

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your weekly briefing.IntroductionWith your E-Commerce Retail Briefing for today, Tuesday, September 24, 2019, I'm Vincent Phamvan.The clothing rental industry has seen a lot of growth as consumers seek sustainable and affordable options. Traditional retail sales may take a hit as clothing rental services gain steam.First, here are some retail headlines.Sephora Tops Sailthru's Retail Personalization IndexSephora topped Sailthru’s annual Retail Personalization Index for the third consecutive year. According to a survey, Sephora earned high marks for their mobile and email customization. The RPI ranking indicates that Sephora is the brand to emulate when it comes to personalizing the user experience, especially on mobile. Nordstrom ranked second on the list, seeing an improvement in its mobile score versus last year. Urban Outfitters and The Home Depot were also among the top performers.Macy's Piloting Same-Day DeliveryLast week, Macy’s announced they would be piloting free same-day delivery in select markets. They also revealed that free same-day delivery on orders over $75 would be available in 30 markets by October 1st. Macy’s will be partnering with Deliv to fulfill same-day orders. They didn’t say when the pilot would end, but Andrew Lipsman, an e-commerce analyst for eMarketer, sees it as a temporary play to win over holiday shoppers.Trigo Raises $22 million in Series A FundingComputer vision startup, Trigo, has raised $22 million in a Series A funding. The company uses a series a cameras throughout a store to monitor shoppers and their baskets, similar to Amazon Go. The startup wants to connect with grocery retailers that have watched Amazon Go’s development and want to implement AI without getting involved with Amazon. The company also has plans to implement their technology in 280 stores in the next five years.Clothing Rental Takes Aim At Traditional Apparel SalesClothing rental services are a growing trend, which may affect traditional retail sales. Brands like New York & Company, Bloomingdale’s, and Banana Republic are offering to rent their clothing for a monthly rate. Even H&M, with almost 5,000 stores globally, announced in August they were launching their own rental service.While most services are online, some brands are creating physical spaces for people to drop off, pick up, or browse available clothing. Fashion rental service Le Tote bought the operations of Lord + Taylor stores. In the next nine months, it plans to build drop-off lockers and display areas in 38 Lord + Taylor department stores. Rent the Runway has also expanded its physical presence with partnerships with WeWork and Nordstrom.The risk for retailers is that rental services could take spend away from more traditional sales. Changing shopping habits and falling prices have nearly halved the spend on apparel by the average U.S. consumer over the past 30 years. In 2018, In addition, the U.S. apparel rental market was worth $1 billion in 2018, less than 1 percent of total apparel market. But, it grew 24 percent in that year compared to 5 percent for the wider clothing market.Though clothing rental seems to be well liked among consumers, it comes with risks, so it remains to be seen if rentals will chip away at traditional retail sales over the longer term.ClosingThanks for listening to the latest episode of the E-Commerce Retail Briefing.

“Girl code,” you know what we’re talking about! Those unofficial rules that every member of our tribe understands, the code of behavior that governs female friendship. We have guidelines (even if we don't say them out loud) on everything from dating to clothing, keeping secrets, and how we mother each other’s children. In this episode, cross-generational friends and co-hosts, Darlene Brock and Julie Graham, give real-life examples of how women live by this set of rules. When we do, our relationships become strong and life-giving. And yes, they can be downright funny. Listen, laugh, nod, and share this one with your girls! Viewing in an app? Full show notes here!

Léger et pratique le “Tote Bag”, ce sac en tissu réutilisable est devenu une alternative au sac plastique. Entièrement personnalisable, il rencontre un vif succès même dans l’univers très fermé de la mode.

Looking back we all recall the mom phrases: “Don’t roll your eyes, they’ll get stuck like that”, “If your friend jumped off a bridge...” and “Because I said so, that’s why!” These all-too-familiar phrases became ones we mouthed in the backseat of the car as we were growing up. There also may have been phrases like “I love you no matter what” that she never said, but you wished she would have. On this episode, Darlene and Julie revisit several expressions moms are famous for, as well as ones they didn’t say, but you needed. If you’re a mom, you will find yourself repeating these to your kiddos, because they were true then and still true now (and will continue to be for generations to come). A few are funny, several seem to have fallen on deaf ears but deserve a fresh look, and then there are the nuggets of pure wisdom that bear repeating. Listen now, and maybe give your mom a call!

Kellie and Allen are in love with their new rescue dog, Larry. But let's be honest, Allen is obsessed. He's not just Alpha Dog...he's declared himself Alpha WOLF. Allen has bought all the books on doggie nature and discipline and decided something he learned from the Dog Whisperer Cesar Milan can help Kellie with her anxiety.Before Larry, Kellie had George. When George passed away last year, it took a long time for her heart to heal enough to welcome a new dog. But when she was cleaning out her purse, Kellie came across a tract someone sent her right after George died that addresses the question, "Will I see my dog again in Heaven?" One man who lost his dog searched the Bible for answers and Kellie shares what he believes -- and hopes -- to be true.And before Larry derailed the entire podcast with a potty break, Allen and Kellie try to squeeze in some podcast listeners' letters with "Ask Allen Anything."Thank you to our sponsors!Ring.com/Sandwich -- Use this special web address to get a special offer on a Ring Starter Kit with a video doorbell and a motion-activated floodlight cam.LeTote.com -- Enter promo code SANDWICH at checkout to get 20 percent off your first month.Stamps.com -- Click the microphone at the top of the home page and type in SANDWICH to receive a special offer that includes up to $55 in free postage, a digital scale and a 4-week trial.Learn more about your ad choices.
