I get to review one of the hottest shafts out of Korea, the Attomax Pro Atom Blue wood shaft! This $900 shaft features super high-end carbon fiber and an amorphous metal wire technology for added stability. I break down the new LAB Golf prototype putters spotted on tour. Reviewing the new Bettinardi BB Series putters has been awesome and I am really liking the new Variable Depth Fly Mill face. It feels great and puts a good roll on the ball.

Building data capability from zero is not a tooling problem, it is a trust and prioritization problem. In this episode, Laura Guerin, Head of Data and Data Science at Bevi, breaks down how she goes from blank slate to real business impact, without getting trapped in endless plumbing or endless meetings. Laura shares how she runs an early listening tour, prototypes value before asking for bigger investment, and decides when to hire scrappy generalists versus specialists. We also get practical on AI, where it helps, where it is unnecessary, and why quality data and a clean semantic layer still decide whether anything works.Key takeaways• Start with business priorities, then map data work to the actions and outcomes leaders actually care about• Prototype the end deliverable fast, even if the backend is duct tape at first, then scale after stakeholders see value• Use cases first for AI, most problems do not need AI, but the right problems can see real acceleration• Early teams win with adaptable generalists who can wear multiple hats across data, analytics, and data science• Trust is a shared responsibility, build reliability, then create a culture where users flag weirdness quicklyTimestamped highlights00:44 Bevy explained, smart bottle less dispensers and why the business context matters for data priorities02:01 The listening tour playbook, exec alignment, stakeholder map, and using AI to synthesize themes into a SWOT04:00 The MVP reality, manual prototypes to prove value, then the conversation about scalable pipelines06:33 AI without the hype, use cases, when AI is not needed, and two examples with clear business impact09:22 Hiring from zero, why generalists first, the data analytics data science spectrum, and the personality traits that matter14:21 Self service reimagined, Slack as the interface, semantic layer and permissions, and how to keep a single source of truth20:19 Keeping trust when things break, checks and balances plus a shared responsibility model22:39 Making innovation real, baking it into expectations so the team has time to learn and test new approachesA line worth stealingData on its own is not typically a priority. It is more about the action or the impact that comes out of the data.Pro tips• Run a structured listening tour early, capture themes, then pick two or three priorities you can deliver quickly• Show the business an MVP output first, then use that proof to justify the unglamorous backend work• Treat AI like any other tool, define the problem, validate the use case, then confirm the data quality inputsCall to actionIf you are building analytics, data products, or AI inside a growing company, follow the show and subscribe so you do not miss the next operator level conversation. Share this episode with one leader who is asking for data outcomes but has not funded the foundation yet.

The University of Galway has today launched its new Medical Device Prototype Hub, supported by medical device company Medtronic. The development of the facility is part of the five-year €5 million signature innovation partnership between Medtronic and the University, announced in 2023, which focuses on three pillars: developing the MedTech ecosystem, STEM engagement and research. President of University of Galway, Professor David Burn, said: "The launch of the Medical Device Prototype Hub at University of Galway marks a hugely significant milestone in our signature partnership with Medtronic but it also sends a strong message to all those in the sector and all those who are driving innovation – University of Galway is creating the ecosystem in which our partners in research and innovation can thrive. We look forward to celebrating the breakthroughs and successes that this initiative enables." Ronan Rogers, Senior R&D Director, Medtronic, said: "Today's launch of the Medical Device Prototype Hub represents an exciting next step in our long?standing partnership with the University of Galway. Medtronic has deep roots in the west of Ireland, and this facility strengthens a shared commitment to advancing research, accelerating innovation, and developing the next generation of medical technologies. We are proud to invest in an ecosystem that not only drives technological progress but also supports talent development. This Hub will unlock new avenues for discovery and accelerate the path from promising ideas to real?world medical solutions for patients." The Medical Device Prototype Hub forms part of the Institute for Health Discovery and Innovation, which was established in the University in 2024, as part of the signature innovation partnership. It will be further supported through collaborations with government agencies and industry leaders. The Medical Device Prototype Hub sits within the University of Galway's new Technology Services Directorate, which provides shared research infrastructure and technical expertise to underpin activities across both the Institute for Health Discovery and Innovation and the Institute for Clinical Trials, established in 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Hub will be further enhanced through partnerships with government agencies and industry leaders, creating a collaborative environment that supports translation, innovation, and regional growth in life sciences and medical technologies. The development is part of an integrated ecosystem at the University of Galway, which enables sustained, research-led development, further positioning Galway as the centre of Ireland's global MedTech hub and the University as integral to research for the public good on the world stage. Aoife Duffy, Director of Technology Services Directorate at University of Galway, said: "The Technology Services Directorate brings together key research facilities that support fundamental research at University of Galway. It aims to advance our research excellence by bringing together state-of-the-art core facilities and making strategic decisions on infrastructure and investment. The new prototype hub significantly enhances the innovation pathway available for the university research community and wider, and we look forward to working with Medtronic on this partnership". Professor Ted Vaughan, Director of Institute for Health Discovery and Innovation (IHDI), said: "The Medical Device Prototype Hub will serve as a central core facility, providing the engineering infrastructure and expertise to design, build and test new devices. It adds to the vibrant healthtech and medtech ecosystem in the west of Ireland and provides fertile ground to drive its growth.

Why your best life isn't about having the right answers, but about asking the right questions.Finding meaning and purpose in life isn't about having all the answers. For Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, it's about having the courage and curiosity to constantly engage with the questions.As designers, Burnett and Evans have careers spanning everything from academia to companies like Apple, Electronic Arts, and Hasbro. But beyond fashioning better products and user experiences, they've also put their expertise toward the transcendent, writing several books about designing and living lives filled with meaning and purpose.“Compasses say North, not Seattle,” says Evans, highlighting how many mistakenly think of purpose as a single destination. “We're all a dynamic, flowing, constantly changing thing. So how could a changing thing have one static right answer?” Instead, he and Burnett maintain that meaning is more about “going the right direction, not [finding] the right destination.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Burnett and Evans join host Matt Abrahams to explore their strategies for leading a purposeful life. Rather than “rehearsing [an] answer,” their method involves “living [a] question” — embracing curiosity and designing a life through dialogue with ourselves and with others.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Bill BurnettDave EvansBill and Dave's Book: How to Live a Meaningful LifeEp.181 Why Happiness is a Direction, Not a Destination: Communication, Happiness & WellbeingEp.138 Speak Your Truth: Why Authenticity Leads to Better Communication  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:02) - Meaning & Purpose as a Direction (01:42) - Coherence & Living in Alignment (02:23) - Design Thinking for Life Decisions (03:56) - Prototyping Conversations (05:29) - Odyssey Plans: Three Possible Futures (07:33) - The Four Elements of Meaning (09:22) - Wonder Glasses: Shifting Perspective (10:48) - Transactional vs. Flow World (12:36) - How to Build a Formative Community (13:59) - The Practice-to-Production Trap (15:07) - The Final Three Questions (18:35) - Conclusion

A working prototype does not mean your product is ready for mass production. In this episode, our host Adrian and Paul Adams, Sofeast's head of NPD, explore a real-world case where ignored DFM feedback led to predictable, preventable, and extremely costly manufacturing issues. From tooling limitations to material behavior and assembly inconsistency, this conversation explains why DFM exists, and why skipping it can cost hundreds of thousands (or even millions) later.   Episode Sections: 01:17 – Why DFM feedback gets ignored (and why it's dangerous) 01:58 – Real case: prototype worked, DFM warnings dismissed 03:19 – What prototypes are actually meant to validate 04:56 – Why prototype tolerances don't match production reality 05:00 – Material differences: same polymer, different behavior 06:08 – Tooling realities: demolding, deformation, surface damage 07:02 – How cosmetic defects become functional failures 07:32 – Assembly inconsistency, labor costs, scrap, and rework 08:21 – Transport and environmental failures after launch 09:07 – The true cost of returns, warranty, and brand damage 09:53 – The cost multiplier: pre-tooling vs post-tooling fixes 10:34 – How rushing actually delays your launch 11:50 – Investor pressure and the hidden risk it creates 13:36 – Best practices: how DFM should really be used 14:48 – Why early CM involvement matters 16:41 – The role of NPI checklists and structured processes 18:06 – Final warning: don't ignore expert manufacturing feedback   Related content… Sofeast conducts your DFM review for Manufacturing in Asia The New Product Introduction Process Guide Handover to Manufacturing: What NOT to do & Best Practices Get in touch with us Connect with us on LinkedIn Contact us via Sofeast's contact page Subscribe to our YouTube channel Prefer Facebook? Check us out on FB

I have SOLVED who Poppy Playtime's Prototype really is…for real this time! Mob released a few new teasers and I noticed one small detail that completely changed my understanding of this franchise's most mysterious character, Experiment 1006, the Prototype.

Design for Security from the Start: Making Medical Device Cybersecurity More ResilientMedTech innovation is revolutionizing healthcare but is also introducing new cyberattack vectors that can put manufacturers, hospitals, and patients at risk.In Episode 44 of the MedTech Speed to Data Podcast, Key Tech VP of Business Development Andy Rogers and Senior Computer Engineer Jamie Kendall discuss the FDA's latest cybersecurity guidance.Need to knowSmart, connected devices have greater risks — Medical devices are emerging vectors for bad actors targeting the healthcare industry.FDA's 2025 cybersecurity guidance update — The agency recommends risk-based development frameworks to make device cybersecurity more resilient.Clarifying “cyber devices” — The FDA's guidance applies to any medical device that runs software and could connect to the Internet.The nitty-gritty“Cybersecurity was always baked into our process,” Jaime explains. More specifically, Key Tech has adapted the TIR57 risk-based standard for managing medical device security to the new rules. “[The FDA's] 2023 guidance really laid the groundwork for our latest process. We've tweaked it slightly with the [latest update]. There are more explicit documentation requirements around vulnerability monitoring and more details on the software bill of materials (SBOMs).”Jamie goes on to describe how Key Tech's cybersecurity risk management plan informs product development. The security team starts by developing a threat model based on evaluations of data flows, data storage, and the cybersecurity activities protecting that data. “One of the first things that we always do is a threat model. This is a visual model of the system to show the elements of the device, where data is flowing, and where your trust boundaries are. This is a one-page, digestible visual that everyone can look at, assess, and go ‘yep, that makes sense' and then build your initial architecture and risk assessment based on that.”The security team documents the resulting security architectures using the FDA's recommended views:Global System View: Describes how software integrates with hardware and networks and the associated cybersecurity mitigations.Multi-Patient Harm View: Identifies mitigations for vulnerabilities or failures that could compromise multiple devices and harm multiple patients.Updateability/Patchability View: Summarizes the end-to-end process for distributing software updates and patches, especially if manufacturers do not control the entire path.Security Use Case View: Documents scenarios in which vulnerabilities can compromise the device's safety or effectiveness.“To give a sense of scale,” Jamie says, “this isn't one or two documents. It's a pretty large effort, and it's one of those things that you want to start early in your development process.”Data that made the difference:Throughout his conversation with Andy, Jamie shares some of the lessons Key Tech has learned about designing secure medical devices, including:Design for security from the beginning. Late changes are expensive, especially once in pre-production or after your FDA submission.Avoid cyber rabbit holes. Rather than addressing every possible threat, use data and risk to prioritize the real threats.Don't roll your own cybersecurity. Stick to standard practices, or you risk introducing unknown, novel vulnerabilities.Fully document your SBOMs. Standard libraries introduce layers of dependencies that you must understand. That's the only way to control your exposure to new vulnerabilities.Design devices that are truly safe. Cybersecurity risks are real. Don't treat compliance as a check box.Watch the whole conversation in the video below to learn more about designing for cybersecurity, the importance of third-party penetration testing, and more.

Episode Description:To launch our “From the Archive” series, James revisits his candid talk with Sara Blakely about turning fear into fuel, reframing failure, and selling a simple product with language and grit. You'll hear the bathroom demo that won Neiman Marcus, the three-part courage engine she still uses, and how to protect the thinking time that sparks real ideas. What You'll Learn:A usable framework for courage: how gratitude, mortality, and mission help you act when you're anxious. Cold-call tactics that open doors: lead with humanity, humor, and a clear benefit; remove “doubt language.” Naming and language as strategy: why one word, cadence, or sound (“K”) can change response and recall. Prototype → proof → order: how to create momentum before the back office exists—and survive it. Idea hygiene: protect thinking time, keep an “idea log,” and test small, real-world demos fast. Timestamped Chapters:[02:13] “What did you fail at this week?” — redefining failure at the dinner table. [03:13] Why this conversation outranked a big news assignment. [04:25] Mission beyond profit — Belly Art Project and maternal health. [06:17] Empowering women: the through-line from day one. [08:00] Gratitude and anxiety — learning courage in real time. [10:12] Mortality as perspective; the loss that changed her trajectory. [12:19] Purpose larger than self—doing the scary thing anyway. [14:50] The Warren Buffett premiere pep talk: “Get over yourself.” [17:08] Stand-up as training for product storytelling. [19:00] Seven years of cold calling: rejection as reps. [21:33] Wayne Dyer and “how to think” vs. “what to think.” [26:16] The “fake commute”: protecting thinking time. [30:00] “Are you my idea?” — from cut-off pantyhose to a canvas under clothes. [33:00] The value of a word: comedy, cadence, and copy. [34:03] Why she bet on a name with a hard “K.” [42:52] The Neiman Marcus call, the in-person pitch, and the bathroom demo. [49:31] “We don't have crotches” — surviving ops chaos on the first big order. [52:00] Tears in Office Depot and learning the bill of lading.

A lot of people today say they're "followers of Jesus"—but what does that actually mean? Is it just liking posts about Him, agreeing with a few of His ideas, or calling Him our friend while living a completely different life? To answer that, we have to look backward—way back—to one of the very first stories of Scripture, where God called an ordinary man named Abram into a life of healing, purpose, and partnership. And the same God who called Abram is calling us too: to be healed by His life‑giving presence and to become a source of healing for the world around us.

Today's guest is someone I first came across on the Irish People in VC list—and I'm really glad I reached out. Because it turns out Maureen Haverty has one of the most fascinating jobs you can imagine: helping build the future of space. As a Principal at Seraphim Space, the world's leading space-focused VC firm, she invests globally in technologies pushing the boundaries of what's possible —and shaping the future of space startup investment.Maureen began her career in nuclear engineering, earning a PhD from the University of Manchester before making the leap into startups. At Apollo Fusion, she survived a hard pivot into space, ultimately becoming COO and steering the company through a $150M acquisition by Astra. That experience—what she calls a startup “baptism by fire”—now informs how she backs early-stage founders as both investor and board director. Her insights have been featured in The Times, and she'll soon take the stage at Web Summit to speak on “Space as a Strategic Frontier.”Key Takeaways“Build just enough”: Space startups win by testing early and often, not waiting for perfection.Kill fewer dreams: Rigor matters—but so does nurturing half-formed ideas.Get to space ASAP: In-orbit validation creates trust and unlocks massive growth.From Gantt charts to fast loops: High-performing teams test weekly, not quarterly.Customer conversations still matter: Even in space, talking to users beats assumptions.Additional InsightsWhy VC funding in space is shifting toward earlier MVPs.The hidden costs of acquisition for startup culture and speed.How Starship may reshape what's possible—size, cost, and assembly in orbit.The role of government contracts in fostering a competitive space ecosystem.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode RecapMaureen Haverty shares how balancing rigor with creativity helped her evolve from nuclear engineer to space startup COO to VC. The key? Learning when to test, when to build, and when to let wild ideas breathe.01:35 – Guest Introduction: Maureen HavertyBarry introduces Maureen Haverty, Principal at Seraphim Space and advocate for grounded rigor in an industry literally aiming for the stars.03:35 – Learning When Not to Kill IdeasMaureen reflects on being labeled a “dream killer” and how she transformed that mindset to foster innovation with constructive rigor.07:34 – Applying Rigor Without Stifling InnovationHow Apollo used just-enough testing, internal prototyping, and diverse team strengths to build better, faster.13:54 – Rethinking MVPs in Space StartupsWhy even space companies now push to generate early revenue and test hardware pre-launch.18:19 – Customers Want Something They Can SeeBuilding a physical, testable product—even a crude one—outperforms pitch decks every time.20:32 – The $70M Lesson of In-Space TestingHow one flight test flipped customer hesitation into a flood of contracts.26:12 – Surviving the Shift from Prototype to ProductionThe real scaling challenge: maintaining culture and customer trust while redesigning for scale.30:15 – The Hidden Power of Primes and PolicyWhy space remains deeply shaped by government buyers—and how that's changing with new VC-backed players.35:33 – Starship and the Future of SpaceMaureen shares what could shift when larger...

Most founders dream of selling their company once. John Arrow sold the same company twice. He bootstrapped a mobile product development firm (Mutual Mobile) in college, scaled it to 300 people, and pushed nearly $50M a year in revenue. But the real unlock came from one bold decision: moving upstream into enterprise clients. Prior to that, his model was unsustainable. He and his co-founders made the decision to fire all of their customers and only work with companies with a spend of at least $1M/year. That's when their company took off.  In this episode, John breaks down the decisions that unlocked explosive growth, the typical traps most founders never see coming, and why selling a services company is far more about timing and terms than topline revenue.  You'll hear why he and his co-founders turned down a $100M offer, the minority deal that allowed him to take chips off the table, and how John was able to come back as CEO years later to orchestrate an 8-figure exit.   Key Takeaways 00:00 Intro 01:05 How He Started & Scaled Mutual Mobile 02:55 Why Shifting to Enterprise Clients Changed Everything 07:48 What Uber Taught Him About Testing Ideas Fast 09:34 The Pros & Cons of Using AI and No-Code to Prototype 11:04 The Life-or-Death App That Validated Their Model 14:20 How Mutual Mobile Found Its Identity Along the Way 16:47 The 2nd Dumbest iPhone App of All Time 20:22 An Unusual That Attracted Enterprise Deals 24:56 Why Austin's Tech Scene is a Recruiting Goldmine 29:22 The Real Economics of Owning a Private Plane 44:47 How He Ended Up Selling the Same Company Twice 53:06 The Earnout Terms That Actually Matter 55:43 Creating AI Software with Zero Censorship 57:42 Why Operators Make Better Investors 58:57 When (And When Not To) Invest in Side Ventures 01:01:50 John's Advice for Entrepreneurs in the AI Era     Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/zHnqoPxen0k      Let's Connect: Website | Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Twitter | Facebook

Double Tap Episode 440 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Mitchell Defense, Night Fision, Second Call Defense, Rost Martin, and Swampfox Optics   Welcome to Double Tap, episode 440! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Aaron Krieger, Nick Lynch, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Text Dear WLS or Reviews. +1 743 500 2171 - Dear WLS Operative Enthalpy - Dear WLSWhat are your thoughts on a tunable gas block, like the one from Odin Works, versus a standard gas block, or an adjustable gas block. Is it a solution looking for a problem that should be solved by having a proper gas port size in your barrel, or is it a somewhat valuable option for tuning a range or hunting gun to function smoothly for general operating conditions.Operative Enthalpy Anonymous Coward from GA - Do you think the top part of a mermaid also tastes like fish or that it would actually be red meat? Would there be a solid line where the meat changes in their body or would it kind of blend? Could you make a surf and turf platter with one carcass? Fisher Cat - Hey guys, was thinking of getting a shotgun. In your opinion should I get a Remington 870 or a Mossberg 500? Both of them are at my LGS for $400 and I'm torn between which would be better for home defense and hunting. Also, would a shotgun be a good weapon to have in an event where society collapses? Thanks keep up the good fight #ssb#ShootStraight Gaston Glock - Is the aftermarket beaver tail for Glocks to adjust the grip angle to be more like a 1911 a gimmick or would it actually be something to consider if you like how a 1911 feels in your hand. Zac C - Hey guys, just wanted to give an update on what I went with for my son's first real gun for his 13th birthday.

Added an sig buckmaster 3x9 that my brother got him paired with some leupold rings. Thanks for the opinions that I might hear before his next birthday. Shute str8 notes in 90-120 business days Scott G - I noticed we don't talk about Brownells anymore. Are they no longer a sponsor? Matt A - 2 questions…I have a comp'd g43x and am thinking about changing out the guide rod and spring to a lighter weight than the 17# oem spring. Is the a difference or an advantage in using a single spring guide rod set vs dual spring sets? Ammo used is defensive 124 gr jhp. In regards to ammo, what's the benefit to using +p ammo in a comp'd handgun and will the extra pressure negate what the compensator is supposed to do?Thanks and love the show.   Chris M - How much does the Gideon Guardeon 1-8x FFP scope weigh?

SpaceX Explosion, Chinese Stranding Highlight Private Space Successes and Major Space Failures — Bob Zimmerman — Zimmerman reports on a SpaceX Super Heavy prototype explosion during testing, emphasizing that engineering failures are vital mechanisms for program advancement and refinement. In stark contrast, the Chinese space program's lack of transparency regarding capsule damage resulted in taikonauts being stranded without functional lifeboat capability—a historic first in crewed spaceflight. Boeing's Starliner manned capsule program was downgraded to cargo-only operations due to persistent technical deficiencies, resulting in substantially reduced contract valuation.
