Podcasts about Preference

Today we sit with the old questions and let them breathe again, tracing the places where life begins to feel like a presence rather than a computer. Turner walks through the fault lines of modern biology, pointing to the quiet mind-like shimmer in organisms shaping their worlds. The conversation moves slowly, deliberately, as if the universe itself were leaning in to listen. By the end, the idea of agency feels less like a taboo and more like something we've sensed all along.Part 1: https://youtu.be/MOr-FZ_ogTIPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:08:43 – Gene-Centered Evolution Takes Over00:11:10 – McClintock's Discovery Breaks the Mold00:14:19 – Genes as Interpreted Signals, Not Dictators00:18:11 – From Mutationism to Epigenetics00:20:41 – Dawkins and the Selfish Gene Frame00:24:30 – Life Strives for More Than Survival00:27:47 – Culture as a Force in Evolution00:30:28 – Termites and Environmental Inheritance00:32:22 – When Literalism Distorts Science and Religion00:35:22 – Beyond Gould's Magisteria00:39:02 – The Aiming of Organisms00:41:58 – Desire, Agency, and Evolutionary Trajectories00:44:14 – Human Exceptionalism and the Myth of Evolution's End00:47:46 – Cultural Barriers to Integrative Biology00:49:39 – The Transcendence of Materials00:52:10 – Purposeful Behavior in Termite Societies00:55:35 – Preference and Purpose in Termite Architecture00:59:14 – Human Metaphysics and Cognitive Niches01:04:19 – Cracks in the Evolutionary Consensus01:06:39 – Biology as the Bridge Between Facts and Meaning01:08:58 – The Missing Definition of Life01:10:59 – Biology's Identity Crisis01:12:36 – Rethinking Life and the Universe01:15:08 – The Origin of Life Problem01:16:28 – From Chemistry to Cognitive Emergence01:20:27 – Life as a Gradual Flame01:23:13 – Agency as the Heart of Biology01:25:42 – The Scientific Struggle With Agency01:27:04 – Turner's Work on Organisms, Design, and Purpose #consciousness, #agency , #evolution, #originoflife, #emergence, #complexity , #cognition , #purpose , #epigenetics , #philosophy, #meaning, #physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

In this episode, Matt digs into the classic “What matters more for building muscle: diet or exercise?” and explains why exercise is the primary driver of muscle growth (because muscle adapts to mechanical tension), while diet matters most as a support system that keeps adaptation from getting held back. But the bigger lesson is how this “most important thing” mindset can lead you into analysis paralysis, marketing traps, and over-fixation on tiny variables that cost you motivation and consistency.You'll also hear why most people don't need a special tendon/bone program, how to spot your real “rate-limiting step,” and why personal preference and self-confidence are underrated performance multipliers.⸻Timestamps00:00 Welcome + the big question: diet or exercise for building muscle?01:10 Why fitness culture pushes “it's all diet” (marketing incentives)03:05 The real driver: mechanical resistance and the training stimulus05:20 Yes diet matters, but often it's not the needle-mover (unless it's truly awful)08:10 “You didn't optimize your diet… you stopped it from holding you back”10:25 Sleep comparison: fixing a limiter can feel like “the most important thing”12:05 Q&A: connective tissue and bone density (usually not the limiting factor)14:10 Why strength training already strengthens tendons/bones (and how bone loading works)16:40 The danger of chasing “the single most important thing” and getting trapped in a rabbit hole.20:35 Multi-influential approach: maximize results with minimal cost23:10 What matters most for you (self-assessment, consistency, and honest introspection)26:00 The raft analogy: drop what got you here when it stops moving the needle28:10 Certainty cravings → “the overs” (overtraining, overlearning, overdieting)31:15 Progress is a creative process (no perfect timeline, no crystal ball)34:05 Study takeaway: best training is what you enjoy and can repeat consistently36:05 Preference is power: “better” doesn't matter if it's not better for you38:10 Building self-confidence through small choices (customization over obedience)41:05 Emotional conditioning (and how life/media conditions you if you don't)44:10 Live Q&A: meals, stimulus “feel,” creatine, keto, and diet guilt52:10 Wrap-up + schedule notes + sponsor mention + how to contact Matt54:10 Closing: Be Fit.

Inner suffering is not caused by what happens, but by our preferences about what should or shouldn't have happened—the gap between reality and what we want it to be. Our entire preference system is built from the sum of our learned experiences, which compared to all else going on, is statistically insignificant. But we worship what we have experienced as “truth,” to be defended and fought for. When we stop fighting, we come to understand that everyone is driven by their own conditioned experiences and inner pain—so we stop judging and start asking, “How can I help?” We act from a place of clarity and compassion, not to get our way, but to raise the energy of whatever passes in front of us. © Sounds True Inc.

Better implant outcomes start with how we shape tissue from day one. In this episode of Everyday Oral Surgery, host Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes return guest Dr. Richard Akin, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon from Louisiana, to explore immediate implants and the art of crafting custom healing abutments. Dr. Akin explains how years of refinement shaped his chairside method for building custom healing abutments with bulk-fill composite. This approach helps capture and maintain the natural tissue contours during healing. He shares practical lessons on case selection, torque control, and grafting, and unpacks why wide-platform implants play such a critical role in the long-term success of posterior and second molar cases. Beyond surgical precision, Dr. Akin reflects on how collaboration with restorative dentists and lab technicians helps bridge knowledge gaps, streamline workflows, and ultimately improve patient outcomes. Tune in for a masterclass in technique, teamwork, and continual learning within oral surgery!Key Points From This Episode:An introduction to Dr. Richard Akin, an OMS practicing in Louisiana.How a 2010 course sparked his interest in immediate provisionals.The evolution of his chairside custom healing abutment technique.Using bulk-fill composite to capture patient-specific tissue contours.Publishing the “anatomic harmony abutment” concept in 2016.Why soft-tissue management is as critical as implant stability.Key benefits from his custom healing abutment technique.Dr. Akin's full immediate implant workflow from extraction to final abutment.Optimizing insertion torque for predictable immediate placement.Case selection, grafting, and managing buccal gaps for success.Preference for wide-platform implants in posterior and molar cases.Long-term recall data showing success in second-molar implants.Prioritizing thorough socket debridement and irrigation to achieve clean, bleeding bone.Avoiding over-drilling through feel and control during osteotomy preparation.Collaborating with restorative dentists and other specialists for improved patient outcomes.The importance of actively bridging gaps between surgeons, labs, and restorative teams.A breakdown of Dr. Akin's approach to maxillary immediate implants.Final reflections on teamwork, gratitude, and patient-centered care.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Akin — https://www.drakin.com/Dr. Richard Akin on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-akin-644aa932/Dr. Richard Akin email — rick@drakin.com‘A New Concept in Maintaining the Emergence Profile in Immediate Posterior Implant Placement: The Anatomic Harmony Abutment' — https://www.researchgate.net/publication/304779134_A_New_Concept_in_Maintaining_the_Emergence_Profile_in_Immediate_Posterior_Implant_Placement_The_Anatomic_Harmony_Abutment‘Clinical Advantages of Immediate Posterior Implants With Custom Healing Abutments: Up to 8-Year Follow-Up of 115 Cases' — https://www.researchgate.net/publication/363099744_Clinical_Advantages_of_Immediate_Posterior_Implants_with_Custom_Healing_Abutments_Up_to_8_Year_Follow_Up_of_115_CasesEveryday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyda

Building on the foundation laid in previous episodes, co-hosts John Shimp and Pastor Karl Dyrli are joined by Laura Forrester, who is a member of the worship team as well as the Director of Communications at Fellowship, to discuss the difference between doxology and personal preference. Together, they lay the groundwork for understanding what true, biblical worship really looks like and why worship is about giving God what he is worthy of rather than making the focus on our own preferences and styles.   They explore the tension between true worship and preference, why preferences themselves are not bad but become disordered when they are placed before Christ, how worship encompasses every aspect of life, why biblical worship is not an escape from reality but a response to God's kingdom breaking into the world through Christ, the freedom Scripture gives when it comes to style and expression, and so much more.

Send us a textDating with wisdom starts by turning your list into a mirror. We talk candidly about why so many singles overvalue appearance and chemistry, then feel blindsided after the wedding when character gaps show up at full volume. Attraction matters, but it won't hold a marriage together. What does? Shared faith, proven integrity, and the humble skills that make peace during conflict.We break down five practical filters for choosing well: spiritual alignment rooted in a real walk with God, character you can verify not just imagine, respectful conflict that doesn't turn doors into drums, inviting wise counsel into your relationship, and giving time the chance to reveal truth. Along the way, we challenge narrow “types” and cultural boxes that can blind you to a great match. Preference isn't a problem until it becomes a prison. If you've ever felt stuck between being pressed to couple up or too guarded to try, we show you the healthy middle: content in God, open to love, and clear on standards.You'll also hear why breakups can be protection, not proof you failed, plus four self-check questions to ask before saying yes. And we elevate the single season as sacred—an unmatched window to pursue purpose, deepen prayer, serve boldly, and become the kind of person your future spouse will thank you for. Whether you're building a new list or revising an old one, this conversation helps you choose a partner you can stay in love with through highs, lows, and everything between.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs clarity in dating, and leave a review with the one green flag you now look for.

In this special release episode, Matt sits down with Nathan Lambert and Luca Soldaini from Ai2 (the Allen Institute for AI) to break down one of the biggest open-source AI drops of the year: OLMo 3. At a moment when most labs are offering “open weights” and calling it a day, AI2 is doing the opposite — publishing the models, the data, the recipes, and every intermediate checkpoint that shows how the system was built. It's an unusually transparent look into the inner machinery of a modern frontier-class model.Nathan and Luca walk us through the full pipeline — from pre-training and mid-training to long-context extension, SFT, preference tuning, and RLVR. They also explain what a thinking model actually is, why reasoning models have exploded in 2025, and how distillation from DeepSeek and Qwen reasoning models works in practice. If you've been trying to truly understand the “RL + reasoning” era of LLMs, this is the clearest explanation you'll hear.We widen the lens to the global picture: why Meta's retreat from open source created a “vacuum of influence,” how Chinese labs like Qwen, DeepSeek, Kimi, and Moonshot surged into that gap, and why so many U.S. companies are quietly building on Chinese open models today. Nathan and Luca offer a grounded, insider view of whether America can mount an effective open-source response — and what that response needs to look like.Finally, we talk about where AI is actually heading. Not the hype, not the doom — but the messy engineering reality behind modern model training, the complexity tax that slows progress, and why the transformation between now and 2030 may be dramatic without ever delivering a single “AGI moment.” If you care about the future of open models and the global AI landscape, this is an essential conversation.Allen Institute for AI (AI2)Website - https://allenai.orgX/Twitter - https://x.com/allen_aiNathan LambertBlog - https://www.interconnects.aiLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/natolambert/X/Twitter - https://x.com/natolambertLuca SoldainiBlog - https://soldaini.netLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/soldni/X/Twitter - https://x.com/soldniFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comX/Twitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)Blog - https://mattturck.comLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/X/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) – Cold Open(00:39) – Welcome & today's big announcement(01:18) – Introducing the Olmo 3 model family(02:07) – What “base models” really are (and why they matter)(05:51) – Dolma 3: the data behind Olmo 3(08:06) – Performance vs Qwen, Gemma, DeepSeek(10:28) – What true open source means (and why it's rare)(12:51) – Intermediate checkpoints, transparency, and why AI2 publishes everything(16:37) – Why Qwen is everywhere (including U.S. startups)(18:31) – Why Chinese labs go open source (and why U.S. labs don't)(20:28) – Inside ATOM: the U.S. response to China's model surge(22:13) – The rise of “thinking models” and inference-time scaling(35:58) – The full Olmo pipeline, explained simply(46:52) – Pre-training: data, scale, and avoiding catastrophic spikes(50:27) – Mid-training (tail patching) and avoiding test leakage(52:06) – Why long-context training matters(55:28) – SFT: building the foundation for reasoning(1:04:53) – Preference tuning & why DPO still works(1:10:51) – The hard part: RLVR, long reasoning chains, and infrastructure pain(1:13:59) – Why RL is so technically brutal(1:18:17) – Complexity tax vs AGI hype(1:21:58) – How everyone can contribute to the future of AI(1:27:26) – Closing thoughts

What if there isn't one right way to do things, but many? Letting go of being right can open the door to creativity, flexibility, and even liberation. This episode offers a mindful and compassionate reframe: seeing our approaches as preferences—shaped by our experiences, values, and identities.  Pearls of Wisdom: • Softening into the idea of preferences fosters collaboration, both in medicine and at home. • Mindfulness helps us notice when judgment or irritation is a sign of unmet preferences. • Letting go of the need to be 'right' invites deeper trust, compassion, and innovation. • Seeing differences as diversity—not wrongness—can transform teams, relationships, and institutions. Reflection Questions: • Where in your life are you attached to doing things the "right way"? • How might it feel to see your way as simply your preference? • Whose preferences might you be overlooking at work or at home? • What would it look like to honor your own preferences without needing agreement? • How might this create more peace and possibility in your relationships? If you'd like support shifting from perfectionism to preference, or from rigidity to freedom, we would love to work with you.

Finally, Chris addresses sexual performance issues, emphasizing the importance of communication and understanding in intimate relationships.

Key Takeaways:Market Sentiment & Outlook:Commercial real estate is facing uncertainty into 2026, primarily due to macroeconomic volatility, interest rates, and capital availability.While capital was readily available previously, concern about raising funds or qualifying for loans is now considered the top risk by industry leaders.Most investors still expect to increase real estate holdings to hedge against inflation and diversify portfolios.Sector Performance & Trends:Some sectors like digital economy properties (i.e., data centers), logistics, warehousing, and industrial are performing well and attracting attention.Office investments are regaining traction, contrary to recent trends suggesting office decline.The hotel sector has struggled, with deal value down significantly year-over-year.Retail, especially malls, continues to be challenged, with shifting consumer behavior and design shortcomings cited as reasons.Development Climate:Rising construction costs, interest rates, and property taxes are obstacles for developers.Flex space development continues where supply is low.Affordable, "missing middle" housing and zoning reform are needed to address shortages and promote multi-use developments.Investment Strategy:Investors are more cautious, screening deals more carefully and not as aggressive as previous years.Preference for acquiring properties to hedge against inflation and for portfolio diversification.U.S. remains a preferred market, but interest in other countries (India, Germany, UK, Singapore) is rising, especially among larger firms.Audience/Participant Concerns:Questions targeted real estate taxes, staffing, capital raising, and partnership selection.Equity/capital raising remains a perennial challenge, given market dynamics and investor situations.Mixed-Use Development Advocacy:Strong views were expressed favoring conversion of single-use malls into mixed-use, live-work-play communities to revitalize retail real estate.

Why do children sometimes show a clear preference for one parent over the other? In this episode, Jess and Scott explore the psychology and science of parental preference. Drawing on attachment theory, developmental research, and family dynamics studies, we break down why children choose favourites, what influences these patterns, and how parents can respond in ways that strengthen connection, reduce conflict, and support healthy development.Get 10% OFF parenting courses and kids' printable activities at Nurtured First using the code ROBOTUNICORN.We'd love to hear from you!

Why do boys like to play with cars and trucks? In 2002, a study at Texas A&M University was designed to explore this question. Researchers took male and female monkeys, and gave them equal access to both traditional boy and girl toys. Interestingly, the male monkeys naturally gravitated towards the traditional male toys, like cars, while the females did likewise with the girl toys, like dolls. As much as our society would like to claim that there are no true differences between genders– boys are different from girls! Encourage your son to play with the “boy toys” he wants to– or, better yet, grab a race car and play along with him. You will see God's perfect design playing out right in front of you. To learn about the 5 critical needs of boys, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

Spiritual freedom is not freedom for yourself, but freedom from yourself.  As you gradually cease to strive to get what you want and avoid what you don't want, life transforms into a harmonious unfolding of the Tao, where peace and joy arise naturally from being in alignment with reality. As you cease to be bound by the personal, —you come to realize the true beauty of who you really are. © Sounds True Inc. Episodes: © 2025 Michael A. Singer. All Rights Reserved.

It's safe to say most of us love comfort. We like things set just right, from the AC to the music to how church feels. But what happens when God asks you to step out of what's comfortable? In this episode, the fellas talk about the difference between purpose and preference and how following Jesus often means saying yes when every part of you wants to say no. From baked potatoes and pumpkin bread to prayer meetings, Serve Days, and Peter's boat, this conversation will make you laugh, think, and maybe even squirm a little. Choosing purpose will always stretch you, but it is in those moments of humble obedience that God moves the most.   Did you accept Christ today?

In 2011, Coca-Cola introduced a white version of their Coca-Cola can. The drink inside was identical to original Coca-Cola, but customers drinking from this white can hated the taste.  The white can made buyers think the Cola tasted worse.  To explain why, I need to delve into the science of sensehacking. With Professor Adrian North, I'll explain why tennis players grunt loudly, why cars smell different when new, how a tablecloth alters our taste, and that music changes what you buy.  ---  Join the Nudge Vaults waiting list: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Join the Nudge Unit waiting list: https://maven.com/nudge-unit/course-cohort Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list   Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/   Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/  ---  Today's sources  Bschaden, A., Dörsam, A., Cvetko, K., & Stroebele-Benschop, N.
