Pain is real whether it is felt immediately after a traumatic event or in the absence of apparent tissue damage on imaging. We now know through pain neuroscience research and understanding the biopsychosocial approach to chronic pain that patients' perceived experiences of pain are unique to them and are entirely valid. On the show today, we have Dr. Neel Mehta, MD. He is the Division Chief of the Weill Cornell Pain Management Center and an Associate Professor of Clinical Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medical College. He also leads research on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN).We chat about the uses, benefits, and side effects of LDN and how it can be used with patients with hypermobility, fibromyalgia, interstitial cystitis, and more. Dr. Mehta discusses how little research has been done on the drug and how he hopes to delve deeper into it to maximize patient outcomes. Dr. Mehta also serves as a Co-Director of Och Spine at Weill Cornell Medicine.  He is the Immediate-Past President of the Eastern Pain Association and Secretary of the New York Society of Interventional Pain Physicians. Dr. Mehta completed his fellowship in Interventional Pain Medicine in the Tri-Institutional Pain Medicine Fellowship at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, Hospital for Special Surgery, and Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Connect with him and his team:646-962-7246weillcornell.org/services/pain-management@wcmpain

This week, Ashto and Jonesy delve into Swipe to Unlock: an introduction to technology and business strategy concepts, and a compulsory read for anyone pursuing a career in the tech industry. Understanding technology is becoming essential no matter what you do for a living. Doctors are now using artificial intelligence to diagnose patients. Farmers are using drones to grow better crops. If the world's biggest companies used to be oil and electric firms, they have now been replaced by the likes of Apple, Amazon, Facebook, Google and Microsoft.In this book, Aditya Agashe, Neel Mehta and Parth Detroja use real-life examples to break down software, hardware and business strategies, and show you the tools to understand them better. You don't need to be a master coder to learn these technological concepts. Whether it's the ins and outs of the internet or the business strategies of tech giants, the authors of Swipe to Unlock believe that everything is understandable in plain, simple English.

Once Bitcoin started to gain traction, it became inevitable that other cryptocurrencies would start to appear. And so the altcoins were born.    An altcoin - as you may remember from the last episode - is any cryptocurrency that isn't Bitcoin. There are now thousands of altcoins in existence, but the flood began as a mere trickle with the release of Namecoin in 2011. Slowly, other altcoins began to emerge - some of which are still with us today, many of which have faded into obscurity.   In this episode, we look at a few of the most notable altcoins to break out in the decade following Bitcoin's entrance into the world. As so many are no longer relevant, we've focused mostly on the ones that have survived in some way, shape or form. It's a useful look into crypto's past, which will help us better understand its present over the course of future episodes.    This episode will also serve as a useful primer for our upcoming series of episodes about the king of all the altcoins: Ethereum.   Some interesting chapters and snippets about altcoins can be found in several of the books we've referenced before. These include:   Bubble or Revolution? (2021), by Neel Mehta, Adi Agashe and Parth Detroja The Age of Cryptocurrency (2015) by Paul Vigna and Michael J. Casey   We hope you enjoy the show.   Producer for iHeart Media: Noel Brown Editor: Sam Moult See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're getting to the end of our exploration of blockchain technology, which means we're almost ready to start talking about cryptocurrency. In this final blockchain-focused episode, we clarify a few definitions and look at what exactly is going on under the hood when a bitcoin transaction is made. Although blockchain can get pretty complicated, we know that a basic understanding of it will stand you in good stead when we start to talk about crypto in earnest. Further reading for those who like to curl up with a good book: The Truth Machine: The Blockchain and the Future of Everything (2018), by Michael J. Casey and Paul Vigna The Basics of Bitcoins and Blockchains (2018), by Anthony Lewis Bubble or Revolution? (2021), by Neel Mehta, Adi Agashe and Parth Detroja Blockchain Revolution (2016), by Don and Alex Tapscott We hope you enjoy the show.

Last time we started talking in earnest about blockchain: the technology that makes cryptocurrency possible. We avoided getting too deep into the weeds, as it's easy to get swamped by technical jargon if you're not careful. This time, we're wading out a little deeper and talking more about how blockchain works. We'll explore some of the processes that take place when we use a blockchain and explore how they're able to function.  Naturally, things get a bit more technical from here, but never fear - we'll explain everything as we go along. We'll look at hash functions, Merkle trees, nodes, miners and much more besides. And, if that all sounds a bit too technical we'll also be exploring how one man ended up spending 10,000 bitcoins on pizza.

Cryptocurrency couldn't exist without a technology that many have heard of, but few really understand. Blockchain is something of a buzzword these days and, from the outside, it can look dauntingly complicated. Surely this is something best left to the geeks, right? Well, blockchain is indeed pretty complex, but that doesn't mean it's incomprehensible: it just needs some careful explanation. In this episode, we'll begin to explore the subject of blockchain; what it is and what it's designed to do. We'll introduce a few terms that are useful to know in the world of crypto, but we're going to keep things pretty simple today. The tricky stuff comes later! A working knowledge of blockchain technology is an invaluable aid to understanding cryptocurrency. Once we start to talk about Bitcoin in later episodes, a little blockchain know-how will go a long way. If you want to dig deeper into the wonders of blockchain, then there are a number of well-written and easy-to-understand books available. We found all of those below super-helpful when researching blockchain for this and later episodes. The Truth Machine: The Blockchain and the Future of Everything (2018), by Michael J.

AV software is becoming extremely popular because of the its percieved protection. Even the average person is aware they want AV on their computer (see AOL, Netscape, Netzero, Earthlink, and other ISP television ads). What if: Instead of protecting ppl from hackers AV software was actually making it easier for hackers? This talk will outline general binary auditing techniques using AV software as an example, and demonstrate examples of remote AV vulnerabilities discovered using those techniques. Alex Wheeler is a security researcher, who specializes in reversing engineering binaries for security vulnerabilities. His research experience was cultivated during his time with ISS X-Force, which he spent auditing critical network applications and technologies for security vulnerabilities. Alex's recent audit focus on AV products has lead to the discovery of serious systemic and point vulnerabilities in many major AV products. Neel Mehta works as an application vulnerability researcher at ISS X-Force, and like many other security researchers comes from a reverse-engineering background. His reverse engineering experience was cultivated through extensive consulting work in the copy protection field, and has more recently been focused on application security. Neel has done extensive research into binary and source-code auditing, and has applied this knowledge to find many vulnerabilities in critical and widely deployed network applications.

This presentation addresses the stated problem by focusing specifically on C++-based security, and outlines types of vulnerabilities that can exist in C++ applications. It will examine not only the base language, but also covers APIs and auxillary functionality provided by common platforms, primarily the contemporary Windows OSs. The topics that will be addressed in this presentation include object initialization/destruction, handling object arrays, implications of operator overloading, and problems arising from implementing exception handling functionality. Various STL classes will also be discussed in terms of how they might be susceptible to misuse, and unexpected quirks that can manifest as security problems. This presentation will include discussion of bug classes that have yet to be discussed or exploited in a public forum (to our knowledge) for the topic areas outlined.
