Chardet dispute shows how AI will kill software licensing, argues Bruce Perens on the Register Also see this GitHub issue. Dan Blanchard, maintainer of a Python character encoding detection library called chardet, released a new version of the library under a new software license. (LGPL → MIT) Dan is allowed to make this change because v7 is a complete “clean room” rewrite using AI BTW, v7 is WAY better: The result is a 48x increase in detection speed for a project that lives in the hot loops of many projects. That will lead to noticeable performance increases for literally millions of users (the package gets ~130M downloads per month). It paves a path towards inclusion in the standard library (assuming they don't institute policies against using AI tools). Thread-safe detect() and detect_all() with no measurable overhead; scales on free-threaded Python 3.13t+ An individual claiming to be Mark Pilgrim, the original creator of the library, opened an issue in the project's GitHub repo arguing that Blanchard had no right to change the software license, citing the LPGL requirement that the license remain unchanged. A 'complete rewrite' is irrelevant, since they had ample exposure to the originally licensed code (i.e. this is not a 'clean room' implementation). Blanchard disagreed, citing how version 7.0.0 and 6.0.0 compare when subjected to JPlag, a library for detecting plagiarism. Blanchard told The Register he had wanted to get chardet added to the Python standard library for more than a decade since it's a core dependency to most Python projects. Brian #2: refined-github Suggested by Matthias Schöttle A browser plugin that improves the GitHub experience A sampling Adds a build/CI status icon next to the repo's name. Adds a link back to the PR that ran the workflow. Enables tab and shift tab for indentation in comment fields. Auto-resizes comment fields to fit their content and no longer show scroll bars. Highlights the most useful comment in issues. Changes the default sort order of issues/PRs to Recently updated. But really, it's a huge list of improvements Michael #3: pgdog: PostgreSQL connection pooler, load balancer and database sharder PgDog is a proxy for scaling PostgreSQL. It supports connection pooling, load balancing queries and sharding entire databases. Written in Rust, PgDog is fast, secure and can manage thousands of connections on commodity hardware. Features PgDog is an application layer load balancer for PostgreSQL Health Checks: PgDog maintains a real-time list of healthy hosts. When a database fails a health check, it's removed from the active rotation and queries are re-routed to other replicas Single Endpoint: PgDog can detect writes (e.g. INSERT, UPDATE, CREATE TABLE, etc.) and send them to the primary, leaving the replicas to serve reads Failover: PgDog monitors Postgres replication state and can automatically redirect writes to a different database if a replica is promoted Sharding: PgDog is able to manage databases with multiple shards Brian #4: Agentic Engineering Patterns Simon Willison So much great stuff here, especially Anti-patterns: things to avoid And 3 sections on testing Red/green TDD First run the test Agentic manual testing Extras Brian: uv python upgrade will upgrade all versions of Python installed with uv to latest patch release suggested by John Hagen Coding After Coders: The End of Computer Programming as We Know It NY Times Article Suggested by Christopher Best quote: “Pushing code that fails pytest is unacceptable and embarrassing.” Michael: Talk Python Training users get a better account dashboard Package Managers Need to Cool Down Will AI Kill Open Source, article + video My Always activate the venv is now a zsh-plugin, sorta.

Tokyo Marathon looks like a postcard until you remember one detail that can change everything: the cutoffs are based on gun time. We sit down with several of our friends fresh off a plane from Japan to get the kind of Tokyo Marathon recap runners crave, the stuff you can't learn from a highlight reel. They share how they got in (lottery vs charity), how they handled jet lag, what the expo is really like, and the cultural surprises that made Tokyo feel so different from any other World Marathon Majors weekend.Then we get into race morning reality: navigating to the start, corrals, bathrooms that are somehow both legendary and organized, hydration rules, and what it feels like to run with strict checkpoints hanging over your head. You'll hear the strategies that helped them stay calm, the moments that made the course memorable, and why that final stretch can feel like the longest kilometer of your life. There are PRs, happy tears, and a lot of respect for the planning it takes to finish strong.We also zoom back to runDisney life with Marathon Weekend registration coming up, a candid talk about whether your first Dopey Challenge should also be your first marathon, and a timely charity spotlight with the Special Forces Foundation on how their runDisney charity bibs work plus practical fundraising ideas. If you're mapping out your next big race goal, this one is packed with travel tips, training truth, and community support.Subscribe, share this with a running friend who's eyeing a major, and leave a review if the Rise and Run family has helped your journey.

Welcome to Episode 5 of our transformative "Fairy Tale Fitness" series on Random Fit! This week, hosts Wendy Batts and Ken Miller take you on a journey inspired by "Sleeping Beauty" to reveal the magic of rest and recovery in your fitness journey.

In this episode, we go deep on open-source Bitcoin mining firmware and tooling with Tyler, Skot, and eco. Skot shares his hack of running Mujina on stock Bitmain Antminer S19 control boards—no SD card, just Ethernet/USB flashing via LuxOS—unlocking full control of fans, single-board operation, and APW12 PSU management (with a cautionary tale about overheating and tripping a breaker). We discuss writing drivers for temps, fans, and the undocumented APW12 interface, 120V APW12 hardware mods (hat tip to Zach Bomsta and PivotalPlebTech), and why open firmware without dev fees beats closed alternatives. We also cover contribution best practices to Mujina, new CI pipelines, and how AI is accelerating clean, reviewable PRs. From immersion tweaks without fan spoofers to predictive maintenance and service models, we explore how open hardware/firmware/software can shrink repair times, improve reliability, and replace SaaS-style dev fees with real support. We zoom out to industry dynamics: opaque OEM support, warranty pain, and MOQs that stifle innovation—contrasted with community-built tools like HashScope (a Stratum MITM proxy for miner–pool debugging) and HydraPool experiments. We brainstorm miner incentives for 256F's pool (e.g., shared block rewards or firmware-level hash-splitting), touch on eHash experiments, and celebrate grassroots devices like the Bitaxe Turbo Touch. The takeaway: open-source stacks like Mujina, HydraPool, LibreBoard, and EmberOne are the path to resilience—from home heaters to megawatt farms—and they need community participation now. Support the 256 Foundation, try the tools, file issues/PRs, and help build the mining future together.

We all want to give our children the world we did not have, but at what point does our overcompensation become their greatest weakness? In a world of instant gratification and digital shortcuts, Nesha G and Moe G explore the fine line between being a supportive parent and raising a generation that cannot handle a lecture without crumbling. The dynamic between the hosts is on full display as they move from the lighthearted banter of gym "PRs" to the heavy reality of protecting your marriage from "creepy" neighbors and overstepping mothers.As the conversation unfolds, you will hear Moe and Nesha debate the "Builders" versus "Millennials" approach to life, education, and the sheer cost of living in 2026. They tackle listener letters about gaslighting in the car and the viral concept of the "damp paper towel" partner who refuses to stand up for his wife. This episode is a soulful blend of humor and hard truths that reminds us all that while the world is changing, the core values of respect and protection in a marriage must remain unshakable.Send a textSupport the show Thanks for rocking with us!

A weekend of sparkle, sneakers, and shared heart. Princess Half Marathon Weekend brought out everything we love about runDisney—creative costumes, cool-weather miles, and castle magic—but also the kind of community you can feel in your bones. We navigated an expo frenzy as Brooks' princess-themed shoes sent lines snaking across the building, watched Disney pivot fast to keep characters and bands on course during a misty 10K, and soaked in small moments that turned into big memories: a family's first 5K together, a triumphant TinkerBob, and the scent of BoardWalk bacon drifting through a fast, happy morning.The half marathon became a quiet masterpiece. Overcast skies, steady breezes, and a surprise wave from Cinderella, the Prince, and Fairy Godmother lifted runners through those famous Magic Kingdom miles. Near the finish, a semicircle of fairy godmothers dusted us with wishes, and the course felt less like a race and more like a rite of passage. Some of us set PRs. Others walked every step on purpose. All of us leaned on run-walk-run, hydration, and patience—the essentials Jeff Galloway taught us so many times.And then the finish line gave us a moment we'll never forget. A chair where Jeff once stood filled with Mickey gloves, ribbons, and a lone Gymboss. Pacers gathered with flags, cheering wave after wave just as Jeff would, offering thumbs-ups and “you did it” to faces still catching their breath. When the sun finally broke through, it felt like a blessing on a weekend that was both hard and healing. We also check in on races from Tel Aviv to Seattle and Atlanta, sharing wins, decade PRs, and lessons that carry beyond the parks.If you ran, cheered, or simply needed a reminder that miles can mend, this one's for you.

Ever been told to “Kegel before you lift” and wondered if it actually helps? We take a clear-eyed look at leaking under heavy loads, how bracing strategies can make or break pelvic pressure, and why a breath-first approach often outperforms constant clenching. As pelvic health and barbell training collide, we break down what's happening inside the core canister—pelvic floor, abdominal wall, chest wall, and back muscles—and how they're meant to coordinate automatically as load increases.We unpack the two big camps in pelvic health: prime the pelvic floor before every rep, or trust the body's automatic scaling. Drawing on a new pilot study using the FemFit intravaginal sensor, we talk through what researchers found during squats, deadlifts, leg press, and curls with and without a pre-contraction. The key takeaway: priming didn't push pelvic closure above interabdominal pressure, and in deadlifts both rose together. That challenges the idea that a pre-Kegel meaningfully prevents leaks at high loads, and it reinforces a smarter path—optimize breath and points of performance to guide pressure, then build capacity.We also get practical for pregnancy and postpartum athletes. You'll hear how to use pelvic floor training as a short-term coordination tool during recovery, when to start with low-load exhale strategies, and how to progress back to heavy bracing for top sets. Think of it like any rehab: deploy targeted drills to restore timing, then discharge them so the system can run automatically. Along the way, we share coaching cues that reduce bearing down, improve trunk stiffness for safer force transfer, and help you lift heavier with fewer symptoms.Whether you're a recreational lifter or chasing PRs, this conversation gives you the why and the how: fewer leaks, better mechanics, and a plan that respects both performance and pelvic health. If this helped reframe your setup under the bar, share it with a training partner, subscribe for more evidence-informed episodes, and leave a quick review so others can find the show.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

The Trio kick off with the rumors about Apple's March 4th event and the possible return of a budget 12-inch MacBook on an A18 chip, which leads to a very poorly researched price analysis and a pitch for a MacBook sock accessory. Steve and Aaron talk about how agentic-assisted coding at work has been mentally exhausting and how they miss actually writing code. The conversation covers why LLMs are rough for greenfield projects, what "vibe coding" actually means (and why they're not doing it), the Alex Hillman episode follow-up, and Steve's experiment running different models against Bento Fit to produce slop PRs that Kotaro then spent an hour reviewing for some reason. Steve also crashes out about the state of the industry and public perception of AI. It's a lot.## Chapters- 00:00 Introductions- 01:51 Rumors and Speculations on New Macs- 10:43 The Impact of Pricing on Apple's Product Strategy- 11:53 The Developer Perspective on a New MacBook- 17:36 Comparing MacBooks and iPads in Today's Market- 18:36 The MacBook Sock- 21:12 Mac App Renaissance- 22:26 Follow-Up: Alex Hillman Episode- 25:12 Agentic Coding Flow States- 29:50 Balancing Traditional and AI-Assisted Development- 33:26 Navigating the Challenges of Greenfield Projects- 38:00 The Dilemma of AI in Coding- 41:48 Navigating Agentic Coding and Professional Ethics- 43:50 The Reality of Code Maintenance- 44:36 Public Perception of AI and Software- 47:41 Steve Crashes Out About the Industry- 51:24 Bento Fit Slop PRs- 58:37 Wrap-Up- 59:37 One More Thing...- 01:00:50 Tag## Show Notes- Apple "Experience" event March 4th, rumored budget MacBook with A18, ~12 inch, fun colors, maybe $699–$799- Updated Studio Display and touchscreen MacBooks also rumored- People buying $600 Mac Minis for OpenClaw setups- Mac app renaissance?

The news hit like a thunderclap: Jeff Galloway, the voice behind run-walk-run and a steady light at so many runDisney start lines, has passed away. We pause to honor the coach who made marathons feel possible, share early thoughts through the shock, and invite everyone at Princess Weekend to carry his legacy in the miles ahead.From there, we shift into a packed, upbeat show that keeps community at the center. We break down the new Marathon Weekend artwork and what Donald's 30th half marathon anniversary might mean for medal design and race-day energy. Then we revisit Springtime Surprise medals—initially “simple,” until we spot the glitter and fluid movement that will pop in person. On the expo front, we debate the Brooks Princess releases: Rapunzel braids on laces, bold character palettes, why specific IP sells better than weekend branding, and where a Merida colorway could still shine. It's practical talk for anyone timing their expo line or eyeing limited drops.Our spotlight guest, Kristen of Running in Makeup, returns with real-world wisdom. After an injury and a purposeful pause from filming, she details how stepping back sharpened training, improved form, and delivered a 30-minute marathon PR. We trade chaotic race-morning tales (forgotten insoles!), celebrate inventive costumes (a Joffrey's coffee cup for the win), and lean into her post-long-run Dr Pepper ritual rooted in Baylor and Waco lore. The heart of it: how runners balance creativity, goals, and recovery without losing joy.We close with a sweeping Princess roll call and a coast-to-coast race report: Vegas lights and PRs, a gritty urban ultra in Ocala navigating painted horse statues, and the beloved Gasparilla challenges with donuts, sprinklers, and rainy-day grit. Whether you're chasing a first 5K or stacking a multi-race weekend, you'll find tips, laughs, and a reminder of why we show up for one another—especially now.If this moved you, subscribe, share with a running friend, and leave a review.

Matt went from AI skeptic to true believer in one week. This episode documents his conversion experience with OpenClaw - the autonomous AI agent that lives on his Mac mini, has access to his code repositories, and is currently rewriting his entire therapy practice management software while he sleeps. The conversation ranges from the practical ("What the hell is an AI agent?") to the philosophical ("Are we creating angels or demons?") to the theological ("What does it mean to be human when code writes itself?"). They both wonder if we're standing on the event horizon of something we don't yet understand. Also: marriage, children, and why Gen X was the best generation (objectively). Cheers y'all

Part 2 of our fireside chat with Randy Huntington goes deeper than technique and medals. This is a conversation about legacy, empathy, curiosity, and what it really means to coach—especially when the next phase of life begins.Randy reflects on his time in China, the isolation and growth that came with it, and how those experiences reshaped how he thinks about athletes, coaches, and the profession itself. We talk about the danger of losing the big rocks while chasing details, why simplicity is often the highest form of mastery, and why great coaches learn to say less, not more.This episode is also about transition—moving from coaching athletes to coaching coaches, from chasing outcomes to shaping people. Randy shares powerful stories about independence in athletes, emotional control in competition, and why fundamentals are still missing at the highest levels of the sport.Along the way, we dive into:* The loneliness and cultural stimulation of coaching abroad

Send a textA grade school jab said he'd never be an athlete. A lunch bet said otherwise. Joe Emus joins us to share how finishing dead last at the Toronto Zoo race sparked a lifetime of running—seven Bostons, five World Marathon Majors, and more than a thousand races fueled by community and curiosity. His secret isn't a shoe or a split; it's choosing joy over judgment and people over pace.We dig into the moments that make miles unforgettable: the phalanx of runners shielding each other from Arctic wind in Tromsø, a vineyard detour in Bordeaux that turned into a mad dash to beat the cutoff, and the blizzard day in Ottawa where Joe was both first and last in his age group. Joe's stories remind us that the best finish photos don't star a watch face; they star strangers who become teammates, a sunrise on the water, and a city chanting your name at midnight.Along the way, Joe unpacks the habits that keep him moving at 71: adopting Jeff Galloway's run walk method for durability, resetting PRs to zero every year to honor the season you're in, and learning fueling by doing—from early gels without water to his notorious frozen-bottle cone stashes. We talk aging with grace, choosing races for joy rather than medals, and why your shoes should change as your body changes. And yes, there are dad jokes, kilts, Tiffany bling, and the origin of “Cool Runnings, mon.”If you've ever needed permission to look up from your GPS, talk to the person next to you, and let the day be the reward, this conversation is your sign.

What if every step you took felt like a small miracle you could share? That's the energy running through this episode as we move from Princess Weekend prep into one of the most inspiring stories we've ever hosted. We kick things off with training touchpoints, expo strategy, and course notes for the Run Disney Princess 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon—plus our meetup details, virtual queue tips, and the can't-miss Main Street moment for first-timers. If you're mapping out corrals, merch runs, or yoga logistics, we've got your plan.Then we sit down with Amanda Ferrin—The Walking Miracle—whose life with a rare autoimmune disease didn't end her story; it sharpened it. Amanda shares how a spontaneous 7K in Denver led to a last-minute Disneyland 10K, a Dopey bib through charity, and a season of marathons from London to New York. She explains scleroderma's impact with honesty and warmth, talks about living with constant pain, and how moving—often dancing—through miles brings relief, dopamine, and community. Her signature sequin jacket isn't a costume; it's a choice to celebrate every day she gets.This conversation holds more than race talk. When Amanda needed specialized surgery and IV antibiotic therapy, the runDisney community rallied overnight to fund it—turning hope into action and a bill into a lifeline. We hear what recovery looks like now, the races she's eyeing next (Rome, Paris, London, and the New York City Half), and why joy, presence, and kindness matter more than pace. Along the way, we share a polished Princess Weekend guide—expo hours, Brooks drops, transport windows, photo tips—and a lively Race Report packed with PRs, scenic routes, runway 5Ks, and hot chocolate finishes.Subscribe for weekly stories, race guides, and real talk from a community that runs on heart.

The u-blox SAM-M8Q has been sitting on my bench for months. This little GPS module has a built-in antenna, coin cell backup, speaks both NMEA and UBX binary protocol over UART or I2C. So why isn't it in the shop already? Well, it's mostly cause of the 475-page interfacing datasheet documenting every command, struct, and config register. Hundreds of message types. I got partway through by hand with some Claude Code Sonnet assistance, but ran out of time - plus it was still tedious when babysitting Sonnet. However, now we're living in an Opus + Codex era! So I pointed my Raspberry Pi OpenClaw at it. https://github.com/adafruit/openclaw Here's the setup: Raspberry Pi 5 running OpenClaw, wired to a QT Py RP2040, which talks to the SAM-M8Q. Opus 4.6 reads the datasheet (converted to markdown first by Sonnet 4.6 with 1M context to minimize re-parsing that PDF every session) and builds the implementation plan. I review the plan to make sure it prioritizes the most common commands and reports, and flagged some unessential sections like automotive-assist or RTK-specific. Then Codex is assigned each message implementation task as a sub-agent and writes the actual C code for the Arduino library. Opus suggested using struct-based parsing rather than digging through each uint8_t array; we just memcpy the checksummed message raw bytes onto the matching struct and extract the typed bit fields. We've got four message types done so far. After each message is implemented, Codex also writes a test sketch that will exercise / pretty-print the results of each message, great for self-testing as well as regression testing later. Tonight I'm telling it to keep going while I sleep: code, parse, test against live satellite data, fix failures, commit and push on success, then move on to the next. To me this is a great usage of "agentic" firmware development: there's no creativity in transcribing 84 different structs from a 475-page datasheet. Once the LLMs are done, I can review the PRs as if it were an everyday contributor and even make revision suggestions.

In this episode I'm joined by astrologer and friend Chris van der Walt to discuss a Vedic astrological technique called the Ages of Maturation.If you're new to astrology, this is a tool you can hit the ground running with. And for advanced practitioners, it will add new layers of depth to your readings.The concept is simple: every planet has a specific year in which it matures. Starting the year before that age, the planet begins to bloom, marking a period where its full expression comes into play.For example, Venus matures at age 25. For someone with a prominent 10th-house Venus, we'd expect that energy to make itself heard in the public sector of their life between the ages of 24 and 25.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!PT IG: JewadegrahamcoachWant a real blueprint for becoming a high-level personal trainer, not just another fast-tracked certificate holder? We sit down with UK coach Graham to unpack what separates “certified” from truly “qualified,” breaking down how short courses can be the starting line—but never the finish—of a serious coaching career. From navigating UK awarding bodies like Active IQ and YMCA to understanding rent-versus-shifts models at PureGym and The Gym Group, we dig into the practical choices that shape your development and earning power.The heart of the conversation is coaching craft. Graham explains why the first 28 days with a client set the trajectory for long-term success, and how a clear onboarding process—assessment, communication, expectations, and feedback loops—builds confidence on both sides. We talk about translating anatomy into human language, ditching Latin for cues clients can use, and designing programs that progress or regress to match real lives and crowded gyms. You'll hear how to start natural conversations on the gym floor, stop opening with “Want PT?”, and instead lead with help that builds trust and makes selling unnecessary.We also address the allure and risk of business mentorships. Graham shares how to vet programs, avoid the shiny scams, and prioritize mentors who teach assessments, communication, and systems. The path he recommends is honest and demanding: one to three years of apprenticeship or mentorship inside an elite environment, building a portfolio of transformations, strength PRs, and rehab wins. That proof makes content easier to create and clients easier to retain. By the time you pivot to independent or online coaching, you're not guessing—you're scaling what already works.If you're serious about coaching excellence, this episode is your roadmap: develop soft skills, master onboarding, build undeniable proof, and only then go big.

In this week's live-stream replay, we go live for a 2-hour, hands-on deep dive into GPT-5.1 Codex Max with Alexander Embiricos, product lead for OpenAI Codex. You'll walk out feeling like an agentic-coding wizard, even if you're starting from zero. GPT-5.1 Codex Max is OpenAI's latest frontier agentic coding model. It's built on an upgraded reasoning backbone and trained to handle real-world software engineering tasks end to end: PRs, refactors, frontend builds, and deep debugging. It can work independently for hours, compacting its own history so it can refactor entire projects and run multi-hour agent loops without losing context. In this live session, we'll set it up together, build real agents, and push Codex Max to its limits.

A good mantra can change a season, and ours hits different: earn it in the winter, win it in the spring. We start with a candid weather check and slide straight into the nuts and bolts of racing life—updated Wine & Dine registration flows, random queue placement, why sellout times barely budged, and how our community rallied with Zoom rooms, phone trees, and charity backups  We map out Princess Weekend long runs, Springtime Surprise magic miles, and the kind of speed work that shakes off a post-Dopey lull and brings your spring fitness back online.Then everything sharpens into one story. Heather, a push-rim athlete many of you know, takes us inside the Donna 110—eight laps Saturday and a marathon Sunday—finished in historic Florida cold with frozen hydration lines and sheets of ice. She shares how triple-stack long runs, bike guides, a coach pacing a late lap, and a brand-new custom chair made the difference. The result: the first wheelchair finisher in race history, the only woman finisher this year, and a heady mix of grit, humor, and joy that included communion at mile one and counting dogs to stay present. Her perspective on adaptive sport is powerful and refreshingly inclusive: we're all out here doing hard things, visible or not, and the win is showing up with purpose.We round things out with Loopy Looper team interest surging, Tom's strength challenge for accountability and smarter training, and Fluffy Fizzies returning to the Expo with upgraded foot care, themed bath bombs, and easy preorder pickup. The race report delivers a streak of firsts and PRs—from stadium sprints to donut runs and frigid New England grit—that remind us how many ways there are to measure progress.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! In this episode, Jeff Dolan, an international executive at Starbucks, shares his journey from a busy executive to a high-performing triathlete. Initially, he struggled with balancing his demanding role with his passion for triathlon. After joining Purple Patch Fitness, he learned to focus on quality training over quantity, integrating nutrition, sleep, and recovery. This approach led to significant improvements in his performance, including PRs in 70.3 and IRONMAN races. Dolan emphasizes the importance of adaptability, energy management, and the value of small, consistent improvements. His story highlights the benefits of integrating sport into life to enhance overall well-being and performance.

One thing that took me way too long to learn was how to balance my health and my business scale. If you're new here, let me share a bit of that. I hit my first million in two years, and that's fast scale. What did that look like? Flatlined cortisol, premenopausal hormones and burnout. All I could think about was, “Is this really what business is like?” TL;DR: I fixed my body, supported my health and kept scaling. Now, I'm living in the best physique of my life, and my business continuously hits PRs. What are my macros? Training split? What peptides am I taking? And HRT? Any PEDs? Listen to this week's episode to find out. 

Jeffrey Stern is an elite ultrarunner, a coach obsessed with keeping athletes happy, and a storyteller inside the sport who understands what it really takes to stay in it for decades, not just seasons.Jeffrey has completed the oldest trail race in America, the Dipsea Race, an astounding 16 consecutive times–and even recorded a personal best in his most recent foray. He's also set several Fastest Known Times (FKTs), including the Backbone Trail (a 68-mile traverse in the Santa Monica Mountains), and the Los Padres Traverse (42 mile route).These FKTs didn't appear overnight: he has a history of crushing long-distance races of all kinds. His overall PRs in running include 15:55 for the 5000m, 1:12 for the half marathon, 2:36 for the marathon, 3:22 for the 50k, 6:07 for the 50 mile, 8:29 for the 100k, and 15:35 for the 100 mile. In the summer of 2024, he undertook a challenge to run two mountainous 100-mile races (Cascade Crest 100 and Angeles Crest 100) just two weeks apart. Jeff impacts the sport in many ways beyond just setting impressive long distance times. He serves as an assistant editor and columnist for Ultra Running Magazine, where he writes event recaps and athlete profiles.As a coach he provides customized training plans for endurance athletes. And he is the race director for the Tamalpa Headlands 50K, the same race that originally drew him into ultrarunning. His day job also includes being the Head of Sports Marketing for Suunto.If you care about running well, running long, and running for the right reasons, you don't want to miss this one.Tap into the Jeffrey Stern Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: I'm a new listener to the podcast and work as the sole developer for a sports team, which is the only company I've worked for since graduating from university 8 years ago. I listened to episode 493 while clenching my teeth as you told a listener to absolutely not take the job with the European football club as a solo developer. Yikes! While I feel I have continued to grow my skillset in my role, I'm now feeling vulnerable about having no professional experience working alongside other developers or on large-scale applications. I feel very conflicted about leaving my current company. I have a respectable developer salary for the (non-American) low cost of living area I'm in, have a great manager, and have built up a ton of good will and trust within the organization. I get all the freedom I could ask for to make design decisions, implement devops practices, try out new technologies, and make mistakes. I also find the work interesting and there's always something else to do! I'm a little scared of the horror stories that I hear about the real dev world and don't want to take my current situation for granted. I would really appreciate guidance on what you think I should do. I have clear skill deficits in certain areas, but would have to give up a lot of liberties with a role change. Listener Brian asks, My job is mostly okay, but could be better because of the people in it. I joined a greenfield project a few years ago as my first software engineer role after transitioning from other data work. I grew up with the project and improved my engineering skills. A year ago we hired two new people. They had relevant experience and seemed to know what they were talking about in the interview, and had five & ten years of experience (aka, more than me). Onboarding the first few months was whatever, BUT they've never really improved afterwards. They turn in work that has clearly not been tested or does not meet the ticket's requirements, barely review PRs and have never (!) left any comments/feedback, and despite their level (senior+). I don't really trust them to work on anything more than the smallest, simplest stories. I've provided specific feedback in PRs and in performance reviews (sometimes very low-level and specific, and sometimes very high-level about guiding questions or principles), but nothing's changed. I've felt frustrated, drained, and confused - why is it such a struggle to get someone with an entire decade of development experience to turn in a straightforward PR? One other teammate has admitted (privately) that some work was sloppily done, which is consoling but otherwise I'm not sure if it's bothering others as much as it does me. They're offshore so maybe it's just a communication thing? The rest of the team has been on the project since the beginning so maybe we're poorly set up for new devs. I have high standards for myself and others and I've always been the most junior developer on the team and am new to the senior role. Am I just being a perfectionistic jerk? Is that a bad match for (essentially) junior teammates? Should I just reset my expectations and accept that their level and years of experience don't translate into high performance? Thanks for any insights.

Host Seth Swerczek is joined by Preston Lentfer and Matt Ritchie to break down how competitive shooting disciplines like NRL Hunter, PRS, and even pistol matches translate into better hunting skills. From gear familiarity and shooting positions to time pressure and mental prep, the crew explores how competition sharpens the skills that matter most when it's time to take the shot in the field.

What does it actually mean to get stronger? In this episode of Beast Over Burden, Nikki and Andrew break down adaptation through strength training—how lifting builds muscle, bone density, and resilience over time, and why the real goal isn't just PRs. They discuss the two sides of adaptation: using training to drive physical change, and learning how to make your training adapt to your life and schedule so it becomes a lifelong habit. Because strength training only works long-term when it stops being a "to-do list" item…and starts being part of who you are. If you want training that lasts for decades—not just a few motivated weeks—this episode is for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode What adaptation through strength training really means How strength training builds muscle and bone as long-term insurance Why training must adapt to your goals and your life The tradeoffs that come with different fitness priorities How consistency matters more than chasing PRs Why strength training has to become a lifelong habit, not a short-term project Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction and the "A for Adaptation" theme 02:30 – Adaptation through strength training: choosing the goal you want 05:20 – Why real adaptation requires consistent stress and recovery over time 08:40 – Training can't stay on the to-do list: making it a lifelong habit 13:30 – Moving beyond PRs and finding deeper meaning in strength training PS - IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN TAKING ONLINE COACHING FOR A TEST RUN, CHECK IT OUT HERE.    Connect with the hosts Niki on Instagram Andrew on Instagram Connect with the show Barbell Logic on Instagram Podcast Webpage Barbell Logic on Facebook Or email podcast@barbell-logic.com
