Raakt Nederland zijn ziel kwijt? Veel mensen voelen een leegte. In hun eigen leven - heeft het allemaal echt zin? - maar ook in de samenleving: wie zijn wij nog, en wat houdt ons bij elkaar? Je ziet die vraag terug in discussies over politiek, migratie, identiteit en de toekomst van ons land. Vorige week deelde politicus Pieter Omtzigt in De Ongelooflijke Podcast al zijn zorgen: de bezieling moet terugkeren in ons land. Maar de grote vraag blijft: hoe dan?   Daarover spreken we met Theoloog der Nederlanden Arnold Huijgen. Zijn jaarthema is diepgaan: wat gebeurt er als mensen of samenlevingen door hun reserves heen raken? En waar vind je dan hoop? Arnold neemt ons mee in een fascinerend mini-college over de geschiedenis van de ziel: van Plato en Aristoteles tot Freud, hersenwetenschap en AI. Want als wij steeds vaker worden begrepen als brein, data of materie - wat raken we dan kwijt? En kan de christelijke traditie helpen om opnieuw bezieiling te vinden? David Boogerd spreekt Arnold Huijgen uiteraard samen met vaste gast, theoloog Stefan Paas, voor maar liefst 1200 Ongelooflijke luisteraars op het Opwekkingsfestival in Biddinghuizen. ⛪Kom ook naar Dit is de Bijbel live! (https://www.eo.nl/podcast/dit-is-de-bijbel/overzicht)  Dit is de Bijbel bestaat vijf jaar. Op woensdagavond 10 juni nodigen we je uit voor het 'Dit is de Bijbel Event' in de Grote Kerk in Hilversum. Arnold Huijgen, Almatine Leene en Stefan Paas zullen daar - onder leiding van David Boogerd - live praten over Arnold's nieuwe boek Inferno, over de hel.

We're hitting rewind for the next few weeks and bringing back some of our most popular episodes. So, sit back and enjoy these highlights from our archive. 00:12 Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast, the first stop on your cloud journey. During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:38 Nikita: Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Nikita Abraham, Team Lead: Editorial Services with Oracle University, and with me is Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs. Lois: Hey there! Last week, we spoke about how hypervisors, virtual machines, and containers have transformed data centers. Today, we're moving on to something just as important—the main cloud models that drive modern cloud computing. Nikita: Orlando Gentil, Principal OCI Instructor at Oracle University, joins us once again for part four of our discussion on cloud data centers.  01:14 Lois: Hi Orlando! Glad to have you with us today. Can you walk us through the different types of cloud models?  Orlando: These are commonly categorized into three main service models: Infrastructure-as-a-Service, Platform-as-a-Service, and Software-as-a-Service. Let's use the idea of getting around town to understand cloud service models. IaaS is like renting a car. You don't own the car, but you control where it goes, how fast, and when to stop. In cloud terms, the provider gives you the infrastructure—virtual machines, storage, and networking—but you manage everything on top—the OS, middleware, runtime, and application. Thus, it's like using a shuttle service. You bring your bags—your code, pick your destination—your app requirements, but someone else drives and maintains the vehicle. You don't worry about the engine, fuel, or routing planning. That's the platform's job. Your focus stays on development and deployment, not on servers or patching. SaaS is like ordering a taxi. You say where you want to go and everything else is handled for you. It's the full-service experience. In the cloud, SaaS is software UXs over the web—Email, CRM, project management. No infrastructure, no updates, just productivity.  02:45 Nikita: Ok. How do the trade-offs between control and convenience differ across SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS? Orlando: With IaaS, much like renting a car, you gain high control. You are managing components like the operating system, runtime, your applications, and your data. In return, the provider expertly handles the underlying virtual machines, storage, and networking. This model gives you immense flexibility. Moving to PaaS, our shuttle service, you shift to a medium level of control but gain significantly higher convenience. Your primary focus remains on your application code and data. The provider now takes on the heavy lifting of managing the runtime environment, the operating system, the servers themselves, and even the scaling. Finally, SaaS, our taxi service, offers the highest convenience with the lowest control level. Here, your responsibility is essentially just using the application and managing your specific configurations or data within it. The cloud provider manages absolutely everything else—the entire infrastructure, the platform, and the application itself. 04:05 Nikita: One of the top concerns for cloud users is cost optimization. How can we manage this? Orlando: Each cloud service model offers distinct strategies to help you manage and reduce your spending effectively, as well as different factors that drives those costs. For Infrastructure-as-a-Service, where you have more control, optimization largely revolves around smart resource management. This means rightsizing your VMs, ensuring they are not overprovisioned, and actively turning off idle resources when not in use. Leveraging preemptible or spot instances for flexible workloads can also significantly cut costs. Your charges here are directly tied to your compute, storage, and network usage, so efficiency is key. Moving to Platform-as-a-Service, where the platform is managed for you, optimization shifts slightly. Strategies include choosing scalable platforms that can efficiently handle fluctuating demand, opting for consumption-based pricing where available, and diligently optimizing your runtime usage to minimize processing time. Costs in PaaS are typically based on your application usage, runtime hours, and storage consumed. Finally, for Software-as-a-Service where you can consume a ready-to-use application, cost optimization centers on licensing and usage. This involves consolidating tools to avoid redundant subscriptions, selecting usage-based plans if they align better with your needs, and crucially, eliminating any unused license. SaaS costs are generally based on subscription or per user fees. Understanding these nuances is essential for effective cloud financial management.  06:05 Lois: Ok. And what about scalability? How does each model handle the ability to grow and shrink with demand, without needing manual hardware changes? Orlando: How you achieve and manage that scalability varies significantly across our three service models. For Infrastructure-as-a-Service, you have the most direct control over scaling. You can implement manual or auto scaling by adding or removing virtual machines as needed, often leveraging load balancers to distribute traffic. In this model, you configure the scaling policies and parameters based on your specific workload. Moving to Platform-as-a-Service, the scaling becomes more automated and elastic. The platform automatically adjusts resources based on your application's demand, allowing it to seamlessly handle traffic spikes or dips. Here, the provider manages the underlying scaling behavior, freeing you from that operational burden. Finally, with Software-as-a-Service, scalability is largely abstracted and invisible to the user. The application scales automatically in the background, with the entire process fully managed by the provider. As a user, you simply benefit from the application's ability to handle millions of users without ever needing to worry about the infrastructure. Understanding these scaling differences is crucial for selecting the right model for your application's need.  07:45 Join the Oracle University Learning Community and tap into a vibrant network of over 1 million members, including Oracle experts and fellow learners.

How does that work?  Orlando: Availability refers to the ability of a system or service to remain accessible in operational, even in the face of failures or extremely high demand. The approach of achieving and managing availability, and crucially, your role versus the provider's, differs greatly across each model. With Infrastructure-as-a-Service, you have the most direct control over your availability strategy. You will be responsible for designing an architecture that includes redundant VMs, deploying load balancers, and potentially even multi-region setups for disaster recovery. Your specific roles involves designing this architecture and managing your failover process and data backups. The provider's role, in turn, is to deliver the underlying infrastructure with defined service level agreements, SLAs, and health monitoring. For Platform-as-a-Service, the platform itself offers a higher degree of built-in, high availability, and automated failover. While the provider maintains the runtime platform's availability, your role shifts. You need to ensure your application's logic is designed to gracefully handle retries and potential transient failures that might occur. Finally, with Software-as-a-Service, availability is almost entirely handled for you. The provider ensures fully abstracted redundancy and failover behind the scenes. Your role becomes largely minimal, often just involving a specific application's configurations. The provider is entirely responsible for the full application uptime and the underlying high availability infrastructure. Understanding these distinct roles in ensuring availability is essential for setting expectations and designing your cloud strategy efficiently. 10:32 Lois: Building on availability, let's talk Disaster Recovery. Orlando: DR is about ensuring your systems and data can be recovered and brought back online in the event of a significant failure, whether it's a hardware crash, a natural disaster, or even human error. Just like the other aspects, the strategy and responsibilities for DR vary significantly across the cloud service models. For Infrastructure-as-a Service, you have the most direct involvement in your DR strategy. You need to design and execute custom DR plans. This involves leveraging capabilities like multi-region backups, taking VM snapshots, and setting up failover clusters. A real-world example might be using Oracle Cloud compute to replicate your VMs to a secondary region with block volume backups to ensure business continuity. Essentially, you manage your entire DR process here. Moving to Platform-as-a-Service, disaster recovery becomes a shared responsibility. The platform itself offers built-in redundancy and provide APIs for backup and restore. Your role will be to configure the application-level recovery and ensure your data is backed up appropriately, while the provider handles the underlying infrastructure's DR capability. An example could be Azure app service, Oracle APEX applications, where your apps are redeployed from source control like Git after an incident. Finally, with Software-as-a-Service, disaster recovery is almost entirely vendor managed. The provider takes full responsibility, offering features like auto replication and continuous backup, often backed by specific Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) SLAs. A common example is how Microsoft 365 or Salesforce manage user data backups in restoration. It's all handled seamlessly by the provider without your direct intervention. Understanding these different approaches to DR is crucial for defining your own business continuity plans in the cloud. 12:59 Lois: Thank you, Orlando, for this insightful discussion. To recap, we spoke about the three main cloud models: IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS, and how each one offers a different mix of control and convenience, impacting cost, scalability, availability, and recovery.  Nikita: Yeah, hopefully this helps you pick the right cloud solution for your needs.

Model „produkt jako usługa” (Product-as-a-Service, PaaS) zmienia zasady gry w biznesie – zamiast sprzedawać produkt, firmy oferują jego funkcję i efekt. Odpowiedzialność za utrzymanie, serwis i cały cykl życia pozostają po stronie dostawcy, a klient zyskuje gotowe, bezproblemowe rozwiązanie. W praktyce oznacza to większą przewidywalność kosztów, wyższą jakość i efektywniejsze wykorzystanie zasobów.O tym, jak PaaS działa w rzeczywistości biznesowej i jakie przynosi korzyści, rozmawiają goście trzeciego odcinka podcastu „Biznes o cyrkularności – rozmowy z liderami zmian”: Katarzyna Kryńska (Elis Textile Service), Tomasz Rudzki (Euro Pool System) oraz Agnieszka Sznyk (INNOWO). Nasi rozmówcy pokazują, jakie korzyści przynosi przejście z modelu własności na dostęp – zarówno dla firm, jak i ich klientów. To rozmowa o rozwiązaniach, które nie tylko odpowiadają na wyzwania rynku, ale po prostu się opłacają.Cykl podcastów powstał we współpracy z dziennikiem „Rzeczpospolita” w ramach projektu PARP „Akademia Transformacji Cyrkularnej dla Biznesu”.Projekt współfinansowany jest z Europejskiego Funduszu Rozwoju Regionalnego w ramach programu Fundusze Europejskie dla Polski Wschodniej (FEPW) 2021–2027.Kup subskrypcję „Rzeczpospolitej” podadresem: https://czytaj.rp.pl

Van wie is de staat – de overheid – eigenlijk? Van het volk? Maar wélk volk dan? De boze burger die zich niet gehoord voelt, of de progressieve, activistische voorhoede die de wereld wil redden? Of is de staat in handen van een technocratische elite, die denkt met beleid, modellen en statistiek ieder probleem weg te organiseren? Onze gast, Paul Frissen, denkt al decennialang na over deze vragen. Paul is bestuurskundige, filosoof en De Groene Amsterdammer noemde hem onlangs een van de belangrijkste conservatieve denkers van Nederland. Frissen ziet een elite die is losgezongen van het volk - niet zozeer sociaal-economisch, maar vooral cultureel en moreel. Een elite die volgens hem zogenaamd seculier is - dat woord valt opvallend vaak in zijn boek - maar ondertussen een eigen geloof heeft opgebouwd. Prikkelende stellingen dus, die hij uitgebreid uitwerkt in zijn boek De neutrale staat. David Boogerd spreekt Paul Frissen samen met vaste gast Stefan Paas, theoloog en hoogleraar aan de VU Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht.

Op 4 en 5 mei kijken we meestal terug op hoe het misging in de geschiedenis: hoe kan een land afglijden naar fascisme of nazisme? Maar vandaag draaien we het om: hoe blijft een land - een democratie - juist wél overeind? Historicus Beatrice de Graaf schreef een fascinerend essay (https://deongelooflijke.substack.com/publish/post/196089476?r=6cjvm1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true) voor De Ongelooflijke (https://open.substack.com/pub/deongelooflijke/p/drie-leugens-van-de-trump-regering?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web) over de jaren '30, met een intrigerende vraag: waarom werd Nederland toen géén fascistische staat, zoals nazi-Duitsland? Hoe bleef de democratie hier overeind - en wat kunnen wij daar vandaag van leren? Daarnaast kijken we naar misschien wel de interessantste actuele testcase: Hongarije. Viktor Orbán gold jarenlang als hét voorbeeld van hoe een moderne autocratie eruit kan zien - een model dat ook bewonderaars had bij politici als Trump en Wilders. Maar nu verloor hij de verkiezingen. Wat zegt dat? Stefan Paas heeft Hongaarse contacten en schetst een verrassender beeld: misschien hebben wij Orbán en Hongarije wel te eenzijdig bekeken. We bespreken dus twee momenten waarop de democratie onder druk stond - bijna een eeuw uit elkaar - en tóch niet viel. Dat leidt tot de centrale vraag: wat beschermt een democratie tegen de verleiding van een politieke verlosser? Extra actueel, nu in dezelfde week de Raad van Kerken zich uitsprak tegen radicaal-rechts gedachtegoed. David Boogerd in gesprek met hét Ongelooflijke duo: historicus Beatrice de Graaf (Universiteit Utrecht) en theoloog Stefan Paas (VU Amsterdam en Theologische Universiteit Utrecht).

En quelques heures, des dizaines de sites de streaming pirate ont affiché le même message d'erreur : le code Cloudflare 521. Traduction technique : le serveur qui héberge physiquement les contenus a cessé de répondre. Cloudflare, l'intermédiaire qui gère le trafic, n'a rien bloqué. C'est la source elle-même qui s'est tue. Aucun des sites touchés n'a communiqué. Ni la Motion Picture Association, ni aucune organisation anti-piratage n'ont revendiqué d'intervention. Et pourtant, la panne est massive.Pour comprendre pourquoi, il faut saisir comment fonctionne ce milieu. Ces sites ne stockent pas eux-mêmes les vidéos. Ils s'appuient sur des prestataires spécialisés — MegaCloud, VidCloud, RapidCloud — qui font office de serveurs médias mutualisés pour des dizaines de façades différentes, aux noms et aux visuels distincts. Les groupes anti-piratage ont baptisé ce modèle le « Piracy-as-a-Service » : la piraterie industrialisée en mode service. Quand un prestataire tombe, tous ses clients tombent avec lui, simultanément.Ces plateformes drainent des audiences colossales. En août 2025, l'un de ces réseaux totalisait à lui seul 622 millions de visites mensuelles, selon les chiffres transmis par la MPA au représentant américain au commerce. Leurs fondateurs originaux ont depuis longtemps disparu ; ce sont des marques zombies, exploitées anonymement sous des mains changeantes.Car ce milieu a ses propres mécanismes de survie. Après chaque fermeture, les opérateurs migrent vers un nouveau prestataire, changent de domaine, et rouvrent ailleurs. MegaCloud et ses homologues avaient eux-mêmes récupéré ce trafic après la fermeture de 2Embed par l'Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment en juillet 2023 — une opération qui avait rendu inaccessibles 302 sites sur 457 identifiés.Mais ce modèle distribué, conçu pour résister, contient sa propre faille. Plus les réseaux multiplient les couches d'intermédiaires pour échapper aux poursuites, plus ils se créent un point de vulnérabilité commun. Un seul maillon brisé, et c'est la chaîne entière qui s'effondre. Si l'infrastructure PaaS a bien été ciblée cette fois, ce serait le coup le plus dur porté au streaming pirate depuis 2023. Mais les opérateurs ont déjà prouvé leur capacité à rebondir. Sans propriétaire fixe, sans adresse stable, sans infrastructure propre — les marques, elles, survivent toujours. Hébergé par Acast.

We moeten het echt over AI hebben. Zeker deze week. Want het was de week waarin Trump in de problemen kwam door een AI-gegenereerd plaatje. De week waarin in Nederland auto's mogen rondrijden die niet bestuurd worden door een mens, maar door kunstmatige intelligentie. En ook op het slagveld was er een primeur: Oekraïne maakte bekend dat het een vijandelijke stelling van de Russen had ingenomen, puur met robots - daar kwam geen enkele grondsoldaat aan te pas. Allemaal ondenkbaar zonder AI. De impact is dus enorm, en dat zorgt voor grote beloftes én grote vragen. Luidt AI het einde in van de mens, of gaan we dankzij AI een langer, gezonder en beter leven tegemoet? Dat is ook een van de vragen die zij stelt in haar boek De Machtscode: Marietje Schaake. Ze onderzoekt dit thema al lang en werkt zelf in het hart van Silicon Valley, waar ze als onderzoeker verbonden is aan Stanford University. Eerder zat ze tien jaar in het Europees Parlement voor D66. Wat is AI nou eigenlijk? Wat moeten we ermee? En hoe gevaarlijk- of misschien wel geweldig - is het? En hoe houden we de menswaardigheid hoor in dit AI-tijdperk? David Boogerd spreekt Marietje Schaake uiteraard samen met vaste gast theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht.

In this episode of Fraudology, host Karisse Hendrick is joined by Frank McKenna, Chief Fraud Strategist at PointPredictive and the mind behind Frank on Fraud. Frank shares his latest deep dive into Starkiller, a sophisticated new phishing-as-a-service (PaaS) platform that emerged following the takedown of Tycoon 2FA.The conversation explores the terrifying mechanics of Attacker-in-the-Middle (AITM) attacks, where fraudsters use "headless browsers" to mirror legitimate login sessions in real-time. Frank provides an inside look at how this tool allows criminals to capture not just credentials, but also two-factor authentication (2FA) codes and session cookies, enabling them to maintain access even after a user logs out.We also explore the "hot topics" dominating the fraud landscape today:ATO Without a Login Event: How marketplaces are seeing "good" users perform legitimate actions, only to have their payout information changed moments later within the same session.The Democratization of Fraud: The professionalization of phishing kits on Telegram, which offer Netflix-style subscriptions and user-friendly dashboards for as little as $300 to $500 a month.Detection Challenges: Why traditional device intelligence and cybersecurity tools struggle to flag these attacks because the victim is interacting with the real merchant website, not a clone.

The tech industry is split between two fantasies  – that AI writes production software while you get coffee, and that everything AI touches is slop. The reality is messier and more interesting: AI tools are force multipliers for people who already know what good looks like, and an expertise amplifier disguised as an easy button. ... Read more »

De invloed van Big Tech - de grote technologiebedrijven - wordt steeds groter. Maar wie zijn de denkers achter die macht, en wat zijn hun - soms gevaarlijke - denkbeelden? Wat willen ze met de wereld… en met ons? Filosoof Haroon Sheikh kan dit als geen ander duiden. Hij studeerde in Leiden en Oxford, is bijzonder hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en senior wetenschapper bij de Wetenschappelijke Raad voor het Regeringsbeleid. Sheikh denkt veel na over de invloed van technologie - en dat gaat diep. Want het wereldbeeld van Big Tech vertoont soms bijna religieuze trekken: met ideeën over verlossing, esoterische geheimen en zelfs onsterfelijkheid. David Boogerd spreekt Haroon Sheikh uiteraard samen met vaste gast theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht.

Send a textStop guessing which software to trust. We break down a clear, repeatable path to evaluate commercial off-the-shelf tools, open source projects, custom third‑party builds, and cloud services so you can pass CISSP Domain 8.4 with confidence and protect your environment in the real world. We start with exam-winning tactics—how to slow down, read for intent, and think like a manager—then move into concrete practices that tame software risk without stalling delivery.You'll hear how to interrogate vendor claims, separate real certifications from marketing fluff, and judge patch cadences and incident response maturity. We dig into open source realities: vetting contributors, scanning dependencies against the NVD, building and maintaining an SBOM, and avoiding abandoned projects that explode under pressure. For third-party development, we outline what strong contracts look like—SLAs with teeth, security clauses, indemnity—and the proof you should see: code audits, SAST/DAST, penetration tests, and meaningful logging around integrations.Cloud isn't a shortcut; it's a shift in responsibility. We map the questions that matter for SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS: data protection, tenant isolation, hypervisor hardening, API security, and event visibility into your SIEM. Then we stitch it all into an evaluation workflow you can run every time: functional fit, vendor validation, layered security assessment, compliance and licensing review, sandbox integration testing, and a deployment plan that defines fix‑forward and rollback before anything hits production. Wrap it with monitoring, periodic reassessment, and documentation that procurement, IT, and security can actually use, and you've built a trustworthy software supply chain.If this helped you think sharper about software risk and the CISSP exam, subscribe, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review telling us your top vendor vetting question.

De onthullingen in de Epstein-files roepen de vraag op: hadden complotdenkers dan toch gelijk? Wordt deze wereld geregeerd door een perverse en verdorven elite? Of misschien beter gezegd: een hypocriete elite? Mensen die hoge idealen prediken, maar ondertussen dubieuze dingen doen op een privé-eiland, elkaar bevoordelen… of, hier in Nederland op kleinere schaal, politici die liegen over hun cv. De maskers vallen af – zo klinkt het – wie kan je nog vertrouwen?  Hoe word je niet cynisch? En kan hypocrisie ook iets goeds zijn? Belangrijke vragen, zeker nu deze week het nieuwe kabinet aantreedt. David Boogerd gaat in gesprek met hét Ongelooflijke Duo: historicus Beatrice de Graaf, hoogleraar aan de Universiteit Utrecht, en theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht. We gaan weer live met De Ongelooflijke! Donderdagavond 26 maart zijn we live in Flint Theater in Amsersfoort. Te gast is journalist en antropoloog Joris Luyendijk.

We’ve spent a decade figuring out how to (more or less) securely authenticate humans. Now AI agents are crashing the party, and identity just got a whole lot more complicated. Today we sit down with Dan Moore, Senior Director of CIAM Strategy and Identity Standards at FusionAuth, to explore the collision course between artificial intelligence... Read more »

Wat is er aan de hand met onze jongeren? Ze zijn vaker angstig, overprikkeld, depressief en opvallend vaak eenzaam. Maar wat zit daarachter? En wat zegt dat over onze samenleving? Een van de mooie dingen van het maken van De Ongelooflijke Podcast is dat we veel interessante en betrokken luisteraars hebben. Luisteraars die meedenken - en ons soms ook kritisch mailen. Zoals onze gast van vandaag: Pauline Calmez. Pauline denkt niet alleen na over jongeren en mentale gezondheid, ze staat ook met haar voeten in de klei. Met haar stichting Netwerk Nieuw Rotterdam werkt ze jaarlijks met meer dan 1.500 kwetsbare jongeren. In haar mail schreef ze dat er iets ontbreekt in de manier waarop wij - en veel andere media - spreken over jongeren en hun problematiek. Volgens haar kijken we te vaak te eenzijdig. Daarbij spreekt Pauline ook uit eigen ervaring. Ze was zelf in zekere zin een kwetsbare jongere, ze werd gepest. Pauline moest van ver komen, maar maakt inmiddels een vrij stormachtige carrière door. Ze stond in de finale van de Rotterdamse Zakenvrouw van het Jaar, werd opgenomen in de top 100 meest invloedrijke professionals in de filantropie - en dat allemaal vóór haar dertigste. Inmiddels is ze 31. David Boogerd spreekt Pauline Calmez uiteraard samen met vaste gast theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht.

In Den Haag werd vrijdag een nieuw coalitieakkoord gepresenteerd. Belangrijk natuurlijk, in een tijd waarin alles lijkt te verschuiven in de wereld. Nederland, en vooral ook Europa, moet zichzelf opnieuw uitvinden – en loskomen van Amerika. Zo klinkt het althans. Maar kan dat? En zo ja: hoe dan? Econoom Paul Schenderling is een van de scherpste duiders die wij kennen. Niet voor niets is hij al voor de vijfde keer te gast in De Ongelooflijke Podcast. We kennen Paul als inspirerend en hoopvol, maar in een nieuw essay van zijn hand proefden we een andere toon. Alarmerend. Unheimisch. Kunnen we eigenlijk nog wel veranderen? Maar vrees niet, Paul zou Paul niet zijn als hij niet óók ergens inspiratie vindt. En die vond hij in een verloren gewaande speech van Martin Luther King, over wat hij noemde ‘de grote kwaden van onze tijd'. En de inspiratie uit dat stuk, weet Paul als geen ander over te brengen, zo hoor je in het laatste half uur. David Boogerd spreekt Paul Schenderling uiteraard samen met vaste gast theoloog Stefan Paas, hoogleraar aan de VU in Amsterdam en de Theologische Universiteit Utrecht.

I've come to the conclusion that Sweller's Cognitive Load Theory is the single most important thing for teachers to know – Dylan Wiliam   On this episode Lars speaks with John Sweller, professor emeritus at University of New South Wales in Australia, about the field of cognitive load theory, a research field in educational psychology that John has been developing since the early eighties.  We talk about the cognitive architecture, how working memory and long term memory interact, and how this interaction and its limits make out the foundational insight that is explored in cognitive load theory; how our cognition is shaped by evolution, how David Geary's theory about biologically primary and secondary skills helped John put cognitive load theory into a bigger picture; some of the main effect that have been identified, like element interaction effect, worked examples, redundancy, split attention, and much more.    Recommended books and articles Ashman, G.

After BCE cut its dividend in mid-2025, investor capital rotated into TELUS as the next high-yield alternative. In this episode, we examine whether TELUS is now facing the same fate or whether the comparison is flawed. We break down the key differences between TELUS and BCE at the point of stress, focusing on free cash flow coverage, leverage, capital intensity, growth outlook, and management execution. While TELUS’s dividend remains uncovered today, improving free cash flow and contributions from capital-light segments such as TELUS Health and TELUS Digital differentiate it from BCE’s deteriorating position prior to its cut. We also discuss the specific scenarios that could force a dividend reduction, including stalled tech-segment growth, regulatory pressure, and prolonged share-price weakness, as well as one recent management move that raises concerns around signaling. In the second half, we shift to silver and explain what is driving the recent price surge. We cover CME margin hikes, record physical delivery requests, backwardation, U.S.–Shanghai price divergence, China’s new export restrictions, and silver’s addition to the U.S. critical minerals list. The conclusion: this is primarily an industrial and geopolitical supply story, not a monetary hedge narrative.

The S&P 500 is trading sideways and could see a slight pullback before a potential Santa Claus rally, according to Charles Schwab's Rachel Dashiell. However, she notes that the advance-decline line indicates strong market breadth. Rachel also highlights Chimera Therapeutics (KYMR), a biotech stock that has seen significant gains this year. Finally, she discusses Pan American Silver (PAAS), which has more than doubled this year, attributing its rise to the explosive run in silver prices.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, we dive deep into cloud security fundamentals, perfect for those preparing for the CompTIA Security+ exam. Join our study group as we explore the shifting security landscape from locked server rooms to identity-based perimeters and data distributed across regions. This practical, Security+-ready guide connects architecture choices to real risks and concrete defenses, offering valuable IT certification tips and tech exam prep strategies. Whether you're focused on your CompTIA exam or looking to enhance your IT skills development, this episode provides essential insights to help you succeed in technology education and advance your career.We start by grounding the why: elasticity, pay-per-use costs, and resilience pushed organizations toward public, private, community, and hybrid clouds. From there, we map service models—SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, and XaaS—and the responsibilities each one assigns. You'll hear how thin clients reduce device risk, why a transit gateway can become a blast radius, and where serverless trims surface area while complicating visibility. Misunderstanding the shared responsibility model remains the leading cause of breaches, so we spell out exactly what providers secure and what you must own.Identity becomes the new perimeter, so we detail IAM guardrails: least privilege, no shared admins, MFA on every privileged account, short-lived credentials, and continuous auditing. We cover encryption in all three states with AES-256, TLS 1.3, HSMs, and customer-managed keys, then add CASB for SaaS control and SASE to bring ZTNA, FWaaS, and DLP to the edge where users actually work. Virtualization and containers deliver speed and density but expand the attack surface: VM escapes, snapshot theft, and poisoned images require hardened hypervisors, signed artifacts, private registries, secret management, and runtime policy. Hybrid and multi-cloud introduce inconsistent IAM and fragmented logging—centralized identity, unified SIEM, CSPM, and infrastructure-as-code guardrails bring discipline back.We wrap with the patterns attackers exploit—public storage exposure, stolen API keys, unencrypted backups, and supply chain compromises—and the operating principles that stop them: zero trust, verification over assumption, and automation that responds at machine speed. Stick around for four rapid Security+ practice questions to test your skills and cement the concepts.If this helped you study or sharpen your cloud strategy, follow and subscribe, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review telling us which control you'll deploy first.Support the showArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod
