Hey Strangers, #AlexandrWang #scaleai #ai In a bold move last month, Scale AI CEO Alexandr Wang took out a full-page ad in The Washington Post, telling President Trump that “America must win the AI war.”The statement sparked mixed reactions, as seen during Wang's appearance Sunday during the opening night of Web Summit Qatar. When Wang's interviewer, Axios' Felix Salmon, polled the room, asking how many people agreed with that opinion, he counted just two hands. When he asked the room how many disagreed, Salmon noted an “overwhelming” number of hands went up.So Salmon asked Wang to defend his opinion. “AI is going to fundamentally change the nature of national security,” Wang explained. He noted that he grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico “the birthplace of the atomic bomb” and that both of his parents were physicists who worked at the National Lab.=======================================Go to the Piza partyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWIgGxr4VXk&t=42s**************************************************My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************article links:https://techcrunch.com/2025/02/24/web-summit-attendees-arent-buying-scale-ai-ceos-push-for-america-to-win-the-ai-war/======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangersTwitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcoderBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/strangestcoder.bsky.socialmerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

Carolyn Pearce is busy digging up, cutting up and even x-raying ancient glass across the globe for study. Why? She’s trying to figure out the properties of the strongest glass on earth today, ones that have survived for thousands of years. That way the U.S. Department of Energy can be confident in its science to bind up radioactive wastes for thousands of years to come. Some of the glass she’s working with is from a Swedish hillfort, some from glass beads from a burial site in Poland, and some from the Newberry volcano in Oregon. We sit down with her at our remote studio on the Washington State University Tri-Cities campus.
In an interview at the AWS Summit, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) Chief Scientist for AI Court Corley and Director of the Center for Cloud Computing Scott Godwin discussed their efforts to enhance research through AI and cloud computing.

Lino Chaparro Ramírez, periodista, editor de Economía en Libertad Digital (España) y de Golfo Radio (Qatar) y Miguel Morales, matemático e ingeniero en petróleo por la Universidad De Texas y becario en Los Álamos National Lab, presentan la primera conferencia nacional sobre la Inteligencia Artificial (IA) aplicada. Chaparro indicó que quieren entrar en la misma sintonía que el resto del planeta, la tecnología, la Inteligencia Artificial y las carreras STEM, que son de los campos de conocimientos con mayor proyección en la historia. Explicó que han querido unir a quienes tienen estas inquietudes académicas, tecnológicas y científicas para mostrarles esta posibilidad y que, partiendo de esta base, puedan mejorar su entorno y proyectarse profesionalmente. «Hemos decidido trabajar en dos áreas, la primera que dirige el profesor Morales, se basa en habilidades duras; la segunda comprende las habilidades blandas, la ética, comunicación, trabajo en equipo que no tiene un entrenamiento académico formal» añadió el periodista. Morales destacó que la iniciativa tiene planteado hacer 8 fines de semana de curso, que a su vez se divide en dos secciones, una para la ciencia de datos, donde se pueda ver cómo manejar estos, y la segunda para aplicar técnicas de “machine learning”. Señaló que en el campo de la medicina, se pueden buscar datos para suministrarle el mejor tratamiento según sea el caso, siendo este uno de los tantos beneficios de este proyecto.

We're joined for this episode by the wonderful Kelly M. She's the founder and Executive Director of Sweet Trades, a non-profit focused on helping individuals land living wage jobs, a Senior Software Engineer at a fortune 100 company, and a Data Scientist at a U.S. National Lab. So you can see why we were excited to book her in for a chat. Kelly switched into DevRel from technical writing, but before all of that she got a degree in left-handed puppetry. Well, not really. She jokes that it would have been just as useful as her actual degree, which was in HR. Kelly is a huge advocate for following your own path, and believes that a colourful background can only come to serve you well in DevRel. She speaks about how DevRel, while holistic in a sense, also needs to be practical. There comes a time when DevRel's need to put on their business hats, especially in the current climate. Metrics aren't everyone's favourite thing, but Kelly believes that knowing the value you add to a company will not only increase your confidence, but genuinely help you with job security. She also tells us about her current project, her non-profit, Sweet Trades. Kelly became attracted to tech initially for the reason a lot of people do: adequate compensation. But she went on to learn that tech doesn't have to be the bastion of a financially secure career. Many roles in various trades can be higher earning positions than a lot of tech roles, and Kelly is on a mission to bring light to these roles and make their presence known. Not just to graduates, but to young adults in urban areas that often have even less access to information about these jobs.

"We got very good at testing things to failure" Virginia “Ginger” Wright is the Energy Cybersecurity Portfolio Manager for Idaho National Laboratory's Cybercore division within its National and Homeland Security directorate. She leads programs focused on cybersecurity and resilience of critical infrastructure for the Department of Energy, DARPA [Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency] and other government agencies. Her recent research areas include cyber supply chain for operational technology components, instant response, critical infrastructure modeling and simulation and nuclear cybersecurity. Some quotes from this episode:"Idaho National Laboratory is the only national laboratory that is focused on nuclear energy. Part of that legacy was in testing what are today normal commercial nuclear installations and understanding where the boundaries of either operational resilience were, or the boundaries of particular material and installation methods that would cause that infrastructure to fail. We have, of course, taken that ability to turn things into failure and use that to develop our own adversary guided thinking about defensive cybersecurity.""In the energy infrastructure, we have devices that are in regular use today that are decades old. In the IT world, I have Patch Tuesday where every week my critical infrastructure is updated. Then after about three years. I toss it and I get another one that is completely and wholly built on the more modern incarnation of technology. When we think about operational technology, applications, energy or water, we certainly can't re-engineer those systems on that cycle of replacement. So often we may not be able to patch or the technology that we are using is so old that the vendor is now no longer supporting patches.""I think a lot of engineers understand materials that they build with. They understand wood, concrete, but they don't often get taught to think about digital systems in the same way they think about materials - that these systems have stress points and failure points and they can be trusted to a certain level but after that we need to build protections into our system to protect us from the ways that they can fail or be brought to failure by an adversary"

BEST OF: For UFOs/UAPs we turn to Area 51 and Wright-Patterson; for atomic bombs we turn to Oak Ridge, Los Alamos, and Hanford. With the recent briefing of the upcoming UAP-‘disclosure' documents by late June 2021, the government has acknowledged that a series of Naval incursions with these craft could not be ruled out as interactions with ‘alien' technology. It's certain the wording will be leading, suggestive and confusing when the final report is published, but while enthusiasts gather around the disclosure campfire for a good story they tend to miss pertinent details already available to the public. Idaho has the highest per-capita UFO-sightings in the United States and it just so happens to be home to the Idaho National Lab, where nuclear reactors, energy, RandD, etc., were developed beginning in the early 1940s. INL crisscrosses between atomic energy and UFOs, particularly because of its location and the curious interest UFOs supposedly have in such technology in the hands of humans. It is also home to one of the worst and ongoing series of radiological contamination in the world.
Logan Finney is joined by Idaho National Laboratory Director John Wagner for a web-exclusive episode of Idaho Reports. They discuss INL's net-zero carbon emission goals, the lab's work in cyber security, and where nuclear power fits in global and regional energy policy.

Finally! A deep dive into the Fungi Kingdom. It took me 36 episodes, but we're finally here thanks to fungi expert Damon Tighe (instagram, iNaturalist). Damon is a skilled naturalist, photographer and science communicator, biotech educator, and prolific iNaturalist contributor. He has a biology and chemistry degree from Saint Mary's college, and has years of professional experience in genomics and DNA sequencing, including with the Human Genome Project at the National Lab's Joint Genome Institute. Damon is also a core member of the California Center for Natural History.Today, Damon describes the basics of fungi - what they are, and how they reproduce. Damon covers the three primary lifestyles that fungi take on - saprophytic, which like to eat dead stuff, parasitic, which like to eat something still alive, and mycorrhizal, where they team up with something, often a plant.We discuss fungi and mushrooms that one might encounter, their seasonality, how to read the landscape to find mushrooms, and how to identify them. Damon covers some common mushroom myths as well, and whether it is OK to pick mushrooms for identification or general foraging. Damon also tells us about some fascinating mushroom behaviors, such as how Chicken of the Woods fruit in anticipation of rain, and the story of the notorious Deathcap mushroom. Throughout the episode Damon mentions many species, and I've included pictures in the FULL SHOW NOTES. You definitely need to see the Chantrelle!We wrap up with a discussion of the convergence of DNA sequencing technology and citizen science. DNA sequencing is achievable at home relatively inexpensively, and a community of citizen scientists are driving new discoveries.

In this episode, we speak with Suzanne Singer, Founder and Executive Director of Native Renewables, an Indigenous-led nonprofit organization that empowers Indigenous families to achieve energy independence by expanding renewable energy capacity and affordable access to off-grid power.It may be surprising to learn that by some estimates, up to one third of U.S. households suffer from some form of energy poverty, meaning that they find it difficult to afford the energy they need to heat and cool their homes and provide basic lighting, cooking, device charging, and entertainment. Energy poverty is a particular challenge for Indigenous communities, many of which are rural in nature and continue to rely on expensive and carbon-intensive diesel, kerosene, and other fossil resources for the limited electricity access they do enjoy. So, in this episode, we take a deep dive into this issue with Suzanne Singer, the Founder and Executive Director of Native Renewables.Growing up, Suzanne's grandparents, members of the Navajo Nation, lacked access to electricity and running water. This, in part, inspired her to establish her organization, which is specifically focused on installing off-grid solar PV systems and batteries for community members of the Navajo and Hopi Nations. In addition to the origins, mission, and operations of her nonprofit, we also discuss Suzanne's career transition from the prestigious National Research Laboratories to mission-driven entrepreneurship and the particular challenges faced by Indigenous women leaders. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did. Note: The Hannon Armstrong Foundation provided a grant to support the efforts of Native Renewables.

This analysis, however, is more about the aria, "When my sweetheart returns," which is in the famous French opera, Nina, or The Woman Crazed With Love. "When my sweetheart returns" is the background music in the HNL teaser and, as we Stranger Things fans know, there is nothing included in this show or its marketing that doesn't have a theory (or 1,000) surrounding. I attempt to analyze how this song could potentially give us answers about season 4 and what becomes of Eleven this season.

“Supply chain and procurement at a National Lab is so complicated–we do manufacture; we do R&D; we do maintain 42 square miles of facilities; we do have 12,000 employees using state-of-the-art technology... We kind of have it all, which is the problem.” Christine Hipp, Leader of ASM Center of Excellence at LANL, walks us through her life journey, and describes how she has climbed all the way up to “the Hill” to find herself a successful career at Los Alamos (LANL). In this episode, she also shares her personal experience with sustainability, digital transformation, and the challenges of sourcing and procuring for a national lab.
For UFOs/UAPs we turn to Area 51 and Wright-Patterson; for atomic bombs we turn to Oak Ridge, Los Alamos, and Hanford. With the recent briefing of the upcoming UAP-‘disclosure' documents by late June 2021, the government has acknowledged that a series of Naval incursions with these craft could not be ruled out as interactions with ‘alien' technology. It's certain the wording will be leading, suggestive and confusing when the final report is published, but while enthusiasts gather around the disclosure campfire for a good story they tend to miss pertinent details already available to the public. Idaho has the highest per-capita UFO-sightings in the United States and it just so happens to be home to the Idaho National Lab, where nuclear reactors, energy, RandD, etc., were developed beginning in the early 1940s. INL crisscrosses between atomic energy and UFOs, particularly because of its location and the curious interest UFOs supposedly have in such technology in the hands of humans. It is also home to one of the worst and ongoing series of radiological contamination in the world.

HPE is once again going to the ultimate edge: Space. Dr. Michael Roberts, Acting Chief Scientist, ISS U.S. National Lab, joins us to discuss how research in space is accelerating at light-speed with HPE’s Spacebourne Computer-2.
The NCI-MATCH trial was designed to reveal mutations in underexplored cancer types, allowing researchers to match patients to appropriate targeted therapies. Study investigator Alice P. Chen, MD, from the National Cancer Institute, reviews the goals and results of NCI-MATCH with host David H. Henry, MD, in this episode. Trial details NCI-MATCH has more than 1,000 participating sites. The trial is open to patients with advanced cancers that have progressed on standard treatment or rare cancers for which there is no standard treatment. Investigators use next-generation sequencing to identify mutations in tumor biopsies taken before the start of therapy. Sequencing is performed at MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston; Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston; MoCha at NCI’s Frederick (Md.) National Lab; Yale University, New Haven, Conn.; and commercial labs. Matching patients to treatment When a patient is found to have an actionable mutation, that patient is assigned to an investigational treatment, typically monotherapy. A patient cannot be assigned to a treatment that is already known to be effective against their cancer; for example, patients with BRAF-mutated melanoma were excluded. The NCI’s Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program sends the patient's targeted therapy to the participating site within 24 hours of notification. CT imaging is done prior to the start of treatment, and patients are monitored with repeat scans every two cycles. Results Data on 5,954 patients with refractory malignancies were recently reported (J Clin Oncol. 2020 Nov 20;38[33]:3883-94). About 38% of those patients had an actionable mutation, and about 18% were assigned to a targeted therapy. Reports have shown varying response rates to matched therapy, ranging from 2% to 38%, Dr. Chen said. Results from the trial's treatment arms can be found here: https://ecog-acrin.org/nci-match-eay131-findings. Dr. Chen noted that this trial was designed to match patients with single agents. Combination therapy has only been used in one arm of the study (J Clin Oncol. 2020 Aug 06. doi: 10.1200/JCO.20.00762). Future directions Nine treatment arms are still open, and one arm has yet to open. Conclusions are still pending the completion of the treatment arms. The next step for this research is expanding to include more combination therapies. There is also interest in comparing biopsies of tissue obtained at initial diagnosis and after treatment to further improve understanding of mutations.

In this episode, John interviews David Montgomery, Professor of Geomorphology at the University of Washington. John and David discuss soil regeneration at length, pulling from David’s experience developing new topsoil in dead, stony ground and his deep dive into the science behind it. David came to the field of regenerative agriculture from a unique position. As a geologist studying erosion, he became curious about agricultural impacts on soils. When David set out to write his first book, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations, he imagined it would tie the subject of landscape formation over millennia to how soil erosion affected ancient civilizations. He ended up writing about the history of farming, because that's where soil erosion and degradation connects back to human societies. Spending more than a decade looking at how agriculture has influenced soil loss resulted in an epiphany that led him to see regenerative agriculture as the solution to historically degenerative agricultural problems. In this thought-provoking interview, John and David discuss: How conventional farming practices have contributed to mining the soil, and how this impacts the future of global societies. David’s observations of rebuilding soil at scale and the science behind it The 3 principles of successful soil regeneration: Minimal ground disturbance Keep the surface covered Grow diverse crop rotations How the key to rapid restoration of soil fertility is about kick-starting the biology Why David is an unrepentant optimist on the issue of reversing soil degradation, something he didn’t think would happen when he wrote the book on erosion. John and David explore the soil-life effects of glyphosate as an antibiotic and mineral chelator, and conjecture as to it’s human health impacts. There is a fascinating glimpse of a South African farm that doubles as a cheetah rehabilitation area, that may spur new ideas on meshing agriculture with wildlife conservation. David shares about his two musical projects as well. https://www.bandmix.com/bigdirt/ David is the author of two books: Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations 2007 Growing a Revolution: Bringing Our Soil Back to Life 2017.
