You've built your FastAPI app, it's running great locally, and now you want to share it with the world. But then reality hits -- containers, load balancers, HTTPS certificates, cloud consoles with 200 options. What if deploying was just one command? That's exactly what Sebastian Ramirez and the FastAPI Cloud team are building. On this episode, I sit down with Sebastian, Patrick Arminio, Savannah Ostrowski, and Jonathan Ehwald to go inside FastAPI Cloud, explore what it means to build a "Pythonic" cloud, and dig into how this commercial venture is actually making FastAPI the open-source project stronger than ever.

My college has an alumni holiday party every year and it's a fun opportunity to meet people both younger and older than me. At this last one, I met two groups of recent grads and I was struck by the difference in their approaches to the prospect of networking. It seemed to me that one group had a lot they could teach the other.They were all very nice – but the first students I talked to – let's call them the freshest grads – were clearly there for some help with their careers.

The truth is out there, and now it's organized. Logic is a fickle thing, especially when everyone seems to have their own version of it. Put on your tinfoil hat and adjust your antenna, because things are about to get uncomfortably organized. Finding Logic within The Arcana Unity In this episode, Jess Krazier takes a stab at nighttime radio with "Is That Right?". His first guest is a man who is both secretive and terrible at hiding his identity. It seems this shadowy figure has developed a digital solution to the world's most baffling contradictions. The Conspiracy Reconciliation Algorithmic Processor is a revolutionary program designed to smooth over all those stubborn wrinkles. Just feed in the problem and it turns a mountain of clashing theories into one smooth, dramatic narrative. But can it handle the problems Jess's callers give it?  "The Arcana Unity" is waiting for those brave enough to stop asking "why" and start asking "how does this all fit together?" The phone lines are open and the truth is waiting. Listen to the latest episode now and decide for yourself what's real.

¡Hola, amiguis! En el programa de hoy os hablamos de que hemos visto la serie New Girl entera. Por lo visto (no nos acordamos ni lo mas mínimo), en su momento (hace algo más de 13 años), le dimos una segunda oportunidad y no nos debió de convencer tampoco, pero ahora, (ah, el tiempo lo cura todo), nos ha entretenido mucho y lo hemos pasado muy bien… ¿Nos hemos quedado sin comedias de las que no pueden gustar? Decidnos si se os ocurre alguna y nos echáis un cable, pero ahora mismo estamos en un momento de «procedimentales ligeros» y estamos viendo White Collar… pero eso para otro día. Ah, y mandadnos mensajes para el programa 500, que lo grabaremos en breve, por fi. ¡Nos escuchamos pronto! Nos podéis escuchar (y dejar reseñas/comentarios) en Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iVoox, Amazon Music o en cualquier sitio en el que escuchéis podcast. Dejadnos vuestros mensajes en Instagram, Bluesky, Mastodon, Twitter, Facebook… o mandadnos un e-mail. Podéis comprar en Amazon a través de este enlace y nos llegará una comisión por vuestro pedido de forma anónima. Si os apetece, también podéis «invitarnos a un café» con Ko-fi, una web para apoyar a los creadores, en la que podéis decirnos que os gusta lo que hacemos pagándonos una tacita virtual :) -Este es nuestro episodio número 499.

Show NotesAustralian composer Lawrence English has spent over two decades treating sound as something that occupies your body, not just your ears. Putting The Tonearm's needle on Lawrence English means entering a sonic world where you're never quite sure what you're hearing or where it's coming from, and if you are a listener like our host, that will suit you just fine.Lawrence's recent album Trinity pairs him with Stephen Vitiello and guests like Brendan Canty from Fugazi and Chris Abrahams from The Necks. Each track builds what English calls "impossible trios," turning geographic and other constraints into creative fuel.Lawrence is here to discuss collaboration, the art of curation, and what it means to make meaningful work in an age drowning in content.(The musical excerpts heard in the interview are from Lawrence English & Stephen Vitiello's album Trinity)–Dig DeeperArtist and AlbumVisit Lawrence English at lawrenceenglish.com and follow him on Bluesky, Instagram, Facebook, and BandcampPurchase Lawrence English & Stephen Vitiello's Trinity from American Dreams, Bandcamp, or Qobuz and listen on your streaming platform of choiceLearn more about Room40, Lawrence English's label celebrating its 25th anniversaryCollaborators on 'Trinity'Chris Abrahams (The Necks) - pianistStephen Vitiello - sound artist and composerAki Onda - multidisciplinary artistMarina Rosenfeld - turntablist and composerBrendan Canty (Fugazi, The Messthetics) - drummerThe late Steve Roden - artist and lowercase musicianBooks and TheoryPeter Szendy - 'Listen: A History of Our Ears'Neil Postman - 'Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business'Lauren Berlant - Cruel Optimism theoryMark Fisher - cultural theoristPlaces and ConceptsGunkanjima (Battleship Island) - abandoned coal mining island off NagasakiHashima Island history - most densely populated place in historyJapanese Metabolist architecture - architectural movement English researchedArt Gallery of New South Wales - collected English's bell workMusical Groups and EnsemblesThe Necks - Chris Abrahams' improvisational jazz trioTenniscoats - Japanese duo Saya and Takashi UenoAcademic and Philosophical ConceptsRelational listening - English's PhD theory on reconciling psychological and technological auditionAcid nostalgia - English's working concept on how contemporary nostalgia corrodes the pastNatsukashii - Japanese concept of longing for a time/place you were never part ofTsundoku - Japanese word for collecting books you don't readMa - Japanese concept of the space between elementsRelated WorksLawrence English - 'Cruel Optimism' (Room40)Lawrence English - 'Wilderness of Mirrors' (Room40, 2014)Chris Abrahams - 'Thrown' (Room40)Chris Abrahams - 'Appearance' (Room40, 2020)–Dig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

Send us a textThis year, the Bita kaulo munthos (the little dark month) has brought with it yet more rain. This time of year can be a hard time. Mid-winter; the time of lambing, Imbolc and the Cailleach. Strung halfway between winter solstice and spring equinox, Imbolc heralds the mid-point of what for many seems to be turning out to be a very hard winter. Join us tonight around our fire as we contemplate how this time can help to prepare us for the uncertainties of the coming year.      Journal entry:6th February, Friday.“A stern hatch slides back And a head appears. ‘Has it been raining all day?' I am asked 'Just about.' I reply. We laugh as I splash passed.One of the puddles In the field goes up to Maggie's tummy.”Episode Information:In this episode I refer to Lea Leendertz's (2024) A Year in Story and Song: A celebration of the seasons, as well as reading short excerpts from Ruth Binney's (2010) Wise Words and Country Ways: Weather lore and John Clare's poem ‘November.'With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.

Show NotesAustralian composer Lawrence English has spent over two decades treating sound as something that occupies your body, not just your ears. Putting The Tonearm's needle on Lawrence English means entering a sonic world where you're never quite sure what you're hearing or where it's coming from, and if you are a listener like our host, that will suit you just fine.Lawrence's recent album Trinity pairs him with Stephen Vitiello and guests like Brendan Canty from Fugazi and Chris Abrahams from The Necks. Each track builds what English calls "impossible trios," turning geographic and other constraints into creative fuel.Lawrence is here to discuss collaboration, the art of curation, and what it means to make meaningful work in an age drowning in content.(The musical excerpts heard in the interview are from Lawrence English & Stephen Vitiello's album Trinity)–Dig DeeperArtist and AlbumVisit Lawrence English at lawrenceenglish.com and follow him on Bluesky, Instagram, Facebook, and BandcampPurchase Lawrence English & Stephen Vitiello's Trinity from American Dreams, Bandcamp, or Qobuz and listen on your streaming platform of choiceLearn more about Room40, Lawrence English's label celebrating its 25th anniversaryCollaborators on 'Trinity'Chris Abrahams (The Necks) - pianistStephen Vitiello - sound artist and composerAki Onda - multidisciplinary artistMarina Rosenfeld - turntablist and composerBrendan Canty (Fugazi, The Messthetics) - drummerThe late Steve Roden - artist and lowercase musicianBooks and TheoryPeter Szendy - 'Listen: A History of Our Ears'Neil Postman - 'Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business'Lauren Berlant - Cruel Optimism theoryMark Fisher - cultural theoristPlaces and ConceptsGunkanjima (Battleship Island) - abandoned coal mining island off NagasakiHashima Island history - most densely populated place in historyJapanese Metabolist architecture - architectural movement English researchedArt Gallery of New South Wales - collected English's bell workMusical Groups and EnsemblesThe Necks - Chris Abrahams' improvisational jazz trioTenniscoats - Japanese duo Saya and Takashi UenoAcademic and Philosophical ConceptsRelational listening - English's PhD theory on reconciling psychological and technological auditionAcid nostalgia - English's working concept on how contemporary nostalgia corrodes the pastNatsukashii - Japanese concept of longing for a time/place you were never part ofTsundoku - Japanese word for collecting books you don't readMa - Japanese concept of the space between elementsRelated WorksLawrence English - 'Cruel Optimism' (Room40)Lawrence English - 'Wilderness of Mirrors' (Room40, 2014)Chris Abrahams - 'Thrown' (Room40)Chris Abrahams - 'Appearance' (Room40, 2020)–Dig into this episode's complete show notes at podcast.thetonearm.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

Death might be one of the most relational acts possible. I think death is that threshold moment where that illusion is dissolved. Our death is a moment of redistribution of nutrients, of memory, of rhythm, of vibration into the wider field, from the illusion of a single self into the remembering of an entangled self. I love to think about death as a teacher of surrender and a trust in the intelligence of regeneration. - Azul Carolina Duque(Below is the script that you can hear me narrate in this episode.)Its January 20, 2026. I was going to publish this roundtable called death as transformation later this year to inaugurate the 7th season of the conscient podcast but I changed my mind – imagine that - and have added it to season 6 because I've decided to take a long break from producing both of my podcasts and my Substack in order to do some thinking and meditation and self-care but I wanted to get this very special episode out to you now in case I decide not to continue with the podcast after my break.It's one of those pivotal moments. Here's back story on this episode. In November 2025, Artistic Director of New Adventures in Sound Art, Darren Copeland, asked me if I would like to participate in an episode of his monthly Making Waves radio program, which is broadcast on WGXC 90.7 FM in New York's Upper Hudson Valley and also available as a podcast. Darren wanted to talk about one of my favorite topics, climate change and asked me what would I like to talk about specifically? And to my surprise I immediately answered: death. I went on to explain that I meant death in the sense of how our spirit and consciousness continues when our body goes back to the earth, and what might this spirit and consciousness sound like? I was also interested in how this heightened awareness might help us relate to complex issues like climate change and societal disruption. So I helped Darren select an expert panel of sound artists and on December 2, 2025, I moderated a 55 minute recording for the December 13, 2025 edition of Making Waves that featured three former guests of my conscientpodcast : Azul Carolina Duque, who you can hear on e211 art as medicine, Kenneth Newby who you can hear on e207 living with grace and Wendelin Bartley who you can hear on e222 restoring our connection with nature.So what you're about to hear is a rebroadcast of this conversation.This conversation is quite magical because we were able to share some very intimidate stories about our own vulnerabilities, our relationship to death and how our practices as sound artists relates to this transition. You'll hear that I ask each of my guests to respond to this 12-word sentence by a friend of mine, Tim Brodhead: Death as a natural transformation of energy and consciousness, not an end.And won't worry the episode is actually a lot of fun and quite enlightening. It's really more about transition than an end. I'm so pleased that it concludes this chapter of the conscient podcast and in a way begins whatever might come next. Thanks so much for listening. Thank you Darren, Azul, Kenneth and Wendelin.See you next time.  *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020. It's my way to give back.This Indigenous Land Acknowledgement statement was developed by members of the Algonquin community for my former employer the Canada Council for the Arts. I have adapted slightly to make it my own.I acknowledge that my studio, located in Ottawa, is on the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation whose presence here reaches back to time immemorial.I recognize the Algonquins as the customary keepers and defenders of the Ottawa River Watershed and its tributaries. I honour their long history of welcoming many Nations to this beautiful territory and uphold and uplift the voice and values of our Host Nation.Further, I offer my respect and affirm the inherent and Treaty Rights of all Indigenous Peoples across this land and honour commitments to self-determination and sovereignty that have been made to Indigenous Nations and Peoples.I acknowledge the historical oppression of lands, cultures and the original Peoples in what we now know as Canada and fervently believe the Arts contribute to the healing and decolonizing journey we all share togetherIn parallel with the production of the conscient podcast and its francophone counterpart, balado conscient, I I publish a free ‘a calm presence' monthly Substack see https://acalmpresence.substack.com.Your feedback is always welcome at claude@conscient.ca and/or on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, Tik Tok, YouTube and Substack.Share what you like, etcI am grateful and accountable to the earth and the human labour that provided me with the privilege of producing this podcast, including the toxic materials and extractive processes behind the computers, recorders, transportation systems and infrastructure that made this production possible.
