Podcasts about Ramachandran

Pour tout comprendre ici il vous faut imaginer que je vous montre deux formes.La première est toute ronde, avec des courbes douces, alors que la seconde est hérissée de pointes et présente des angles très marqués.Et ensuite je vous demande maintenant laquelle s'appelle « Bouba » et laquelle s'appelle « Kiki ».Et bien vous avez probablement attribué le nom « Bouba » à la forme arrondie et « Kiki » à la forme pointue. Et vous n'êtes pas le seul.C'est ce que les psychologues appellent l'effet Bouba/Kiki !Il faut savoir que cette expérience est devenue célèbre grâce aux travaux du neuroscientifique Ramachandran et de son collègue Edward Hubbard, au début des années 2000, mais son principe est en réalité beaucoup plus ancien. Oui. Dès 1929, le psychologue Wolfgang Köhler avait observé un phénomène similaire avec les mots « takete » et « maluma ».Et ce qui est fascinant, c'est que les mots « Bouba » et « Kiki » sont inventés. Ils n'ont donc aucune signification préalable permettant de choisir logiquement une forme.Pourtant, une grande majorité des participants font spontanément la même association.Comment l'expliquer ?Et bien parce que notre cerveau ne traite probablement pas les sons et les images comme deux univers totalement indépendants. Certaines caractéristiques d'un son semblent naturellement correspondre à certaines caractéristiques visuelles.Prononcez par exemple « Kiki ». Les consonnes « k » sont brèves et relativement abruptes. Le mouvement de la bouche et la sonorité peuvent évoquer quelque chose de tranchant ou de discontinu. Cela correspond assez intuitivement aux angles de la forme pointue.À l'inverse, « Bouba » contient des sons plus doux et des voyelles qui s'accompagnent d'une articulation plus arrondie. Le mot semble donc mieux correspondre à une forme faite de courbes.On parle de correspondances intermodales : notre cerveau établit des liens entre des informations provenant de sens différents.Et l'effet ne se limite probablement pas à la vue et à l'audition. Des expériences montrent que nous associons également certains sons à des dimensions comme la taille, la luminosité ou encore certaines sensations tactiles.L'effet Bouba/Kiki remet ainsi en question une idée simple : celle selon laquelle le lien entre les mots et ce qu'ils désignent serait toujours complètement arbitraire.Bien sûr, appeler un chien « chien » ou une table « table » dépend largement des conventions d'une langue. Mais certaines sonorités semblent posséder des caractéristiques qui orientent notre perception. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Shreya Ramachandran was just 13 when experiences with water scarcity in California and India moved her from curiosity to action. What began with research, workshops at libraries and community events, and eventually The Grey Water Project has grown into a decade of environmental leadership. In this episode of Walk Talk Listen, Shreya reflects on growing up as a self-described "library and museum kid," her connection to her grandparents and family roots in Chennai, and the freedom her parents gave her to explore, including allowing more than 100 plants to temporarily take over their bedroom for her greywater experiments. Looking back, she says she would tell her 13-year-old self to hold onto the same "boundless enthusiasm and energy" and the belief that she could change the world.      Now a Stanford graduate with a master's degree in Sustainability Science and Practice, Shreya works at the intersection of climate resilience, youth participation and environmental policy. She has represented young people through UN processes, helped develop climate action plans, and argues that meaningful youth participation requires bringing young people into agenda-setting and decision-making rather than inviting them in after decisions have already been shaped.  Our conversation explores what sustainability really means, why "action breeds hope," what older and younger generations can learn from one another, and why climate action becomes more powerful when people can see its connection to their own lives and health. We also talk about agency, kindness, the future she hopes to help create, and why she chose Rachel Platten's Fight Song as the music that represents her.   Listener Engagement: Learn more about Shreya and her work via her LinkedIn or Instagram.

**ÚNETE A “EL MAPA DE LA ANSIEDAD”** Cursos, recursos y una comunidad en la que compartir experiencias con personas que comprenden lo que estás viviendo: https://www.skool.com/elmapadelaansiedad ️ **LA TEORÍA DE LA MENTE | HISTORIAS DE UN JUEVES** Di en voz alta una palabra: **“kiki”**. Ahora prueba con **“bouba”**. Aunque ninguna de las dos significa nada, probablemente hayas imaginado que “kiki” tiene una forma puntiaguda, con ángulos y bordes afilados, mientras que “bouba” parece redonda, suave y ondulada. ¿Cómo puede un sonido tener forma? ¿Y qué nos cuenta este extraño experimento sobre el nacimiento del lenguaje humano? En este episodio de *Historias de un jueves* buscamos un fósil que quizá nunca podrá encontrarse bajo tierra: **el fósil de la primera palabra**. Los sonidos desaparecen en cuanto los pronunciamos. No dejan restos en las rocas ni pueden desenterrarse junto a una hoguera prehistórica. Sin embargo, nuestro cuerpo, nuestro cerebro y nuestra manera de comunicarnos todavía conservan algunas pistas. Exploramos el efecto **bouba-kiki**, el simbolismo sonoro y la sorprendente capacidad de la mente para encontrar relaciones entre sonidos, movimientos, formas y sensaciones. También analizamos cómo la lengua, los labios, la mandíbula, la laringe y la respiración convierten cada palabra en una pequeña acción física. ¿Pudo comenzar el lenguaje con los gestos? ¿Aprendió la boca a reproducir algunos movimientos de las manos? ¿Por qué gesticulamos incluso cuando hablamos por teléfono y nadie puede vernos? A través de las hipótesis de Ramachandran, los estudios sobre comunicación animal, las neuronas espejo y las redes cerebrales relacionadas con el lenguaje, descubrimos que hablar nunca ha sido una actividad exclusivamente mental. El cuerpo participa constantemente en lo que pensamos, expresamos y comprendemos. Pero este viaje no termina en la evolución humana. También nos lleva hasta la consulta psicológica y hasta esa voz que nos habla por dentro cuando estamos preocupados, sentimos ansiedad o anticipamos que algo terrible va a ocurrir. La voz interna también tiene ritmo, tono y estructura. No es una verdad flotando en nuestra cabeza: es una forma de habla aprendida. Frases como “voy a perder el control”, “no podré soportarlo” o “algo malo va a pasar” pueden sentirse como predicciones inevitables, aunque sigan siendo construcciones lingüísticas. En el episodio proponemos ejercicios de **defusión cognitiva** para observar las palabras de otra manera: repetir una frase hasta escucharla como un sonido, cambiar su entonación, hablarse utilizando el propio nombre o preguntarse de quién aprendimos esa forma de tratarnos. Esto no significa que cambiar unas palabras elimine un trastorno de ansiedad. Tampoco sustituye la ayuda profesional. Significa reconocer que el lenguaje con el que interpretamos nuestra experiencia no es una fotografía neutral: es un relato, y algunos relatos pueden revisarse. Quizá nunca sepamos quién pronunció la primera palabra. Tal vez ni siquiera existió un único comienzo. Puede que el lenguaje surgiera a través de miles de pequeños acuerdos entre una mirada, un gesto, un sonido y alguien capaz de comprenderlo. La gran maravilla no es solamente que podamos describir el mundo. Es que utilizamos músculos, aire y movimiento para construir un puente entre dos mentes. La próxima vez que tu voz interna te diga algo terrible a las tres de la mañana, quizá la primera pregunta no sea si tiene razón. Quizá sea: **¿de quién aprendí a hablarme así?** ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ **Nuestra Escuela de Ansiedad:** https://www.escuelaansiedad.com **Nuestro nuevo libro, “El mapa de la ansiedad”:** https://www.elmapadelaansiedad.com **Visita nuestra página web:** http://www.amadag.com **Facebook:** https://www.facebook.com/Asociacion.Agorafobia/ **Instagram:** https://www.instagram.com/amadag.psico/ ▶️ **YouTube AMADAG TV:** https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC22fPGPhEhgiXCM7PGl68rw

My guest today is Mathangi Sri Ramachandran, Co-Founder of YuVerse. The conversation included Mathangi 's early fascination with data-driven decision-making → AI as a force for democratisation → empathy at scale → career choices driven by impact → sustaining a long career as a woman → the ecosystem behind innovation and patents.00:00 – Introduction: A life and career deeply rooted in AIMathangi introduces herself as someone whose “heart and soul” are in AI. She talks about her role as CEO and co-founder of U-verse, a last-mile AI company focused on taking frontier AI models beyond experimentation and applying them to real business workflows and outcomes.01:20 – What does “last-mile AI” really mean?Mathangi explains the gap between powerful frontier models and actual enterprise outcomes. She discusses how AI transformation requires bringing together technology, workflows and the human elements of work—across banking, insurance, real estate, retail and other industries.02:30 – A 20-year journey in data scienceLong before the current generative AI wave, Mathangi was working in data science and analytics. She reflects on the long history of AI and reminds us that data-driven decision-making, machine learning and conversational technologies have been evolving for decades.03:50 – The campus interview that changed her career directionA simple example during a GE campus interview at NIT Trichy—using data to decide where windmills should be located—sparked Mathangi's interest in scientific, data-driven decision-making. That idea became a defining theme throughout her career.05:00 – Using data to improve decisions at scaleFrom marketing analytics to risk scorecards in financial services, Mathangi saw first-hand how large-scale data could improve enterprise decision-making. She shares her belief that moving from human judgement alone towards data-informed systems can help reduce bias and democratise access.06:30 – Can machines deliver empathy at scale?In one of the most thought-provoking parts of the conversation, Mathangi challenges the assumption that machines cannot be empathetic. Drawing from her experience with conversational AI, she argues that machines can deliver consistent empathy across hundreds or thousands of difficult interactions in ways that are extremely challenging for human agents.07:40 – Why difficult customer conversations can escalateUsing debt collection conversations as an example, Mathangi explains the emotional burden placed on human agents who may handle a hundred difficult calls every day. She demonstrates how quickly a human-to-human interaction can escalate—and how well-designed conversational AI can maintain consistency and bring the emotional temperature down.09:35 – From an idea today to an outcome tomorrowThe arrival of large language models has dramatically shortened the distance between an idea and its implementation. For Mathangi, this makes the current era one of the most exciting times to work in AI.10:55 – What continues to motivate her after two decades?The answer is simple: possibilities. Mathangi talks about her desire to use technology to build a better world by reducing bias, improving decision-making and democratising access to services.11:20 – AI, financial inclusion and a more equitable worldBetter decision-making can enable deeper financial inclusion and expand access to capital. Mathangi connects AI and data science to a larger societal purpose: ensuring that more deserving people can access opportunities without being excluded by individual biases or subjective judgements.12:50 – AI and access to healthcare and emotional supportMathangi explores the possibilities of AI in healthcare and therapy, particularly for people in underserved communities. She imagines a woman in a remote village being able to safely access a culturally aware, local-language AI companion when human support may be unavailable or difficult to approach.14:45 – Why this is the best time to be working in AIIdeas that once took years to reach the market can now move from concept to implementation at extraordinary speed. Mathangi reflects on why she has never enjoyed her work more than she does today.15:55 – Where the rubber meets the road: making AI deliver impactLooking across her career, Mathangi describes her current entrepreneurial journey as particularly impactful because she can not only build AI solutions but also take them directly into enterprises—improving processes such as customer conversations, underwriting and claims processing.17:40 – The AI tailwind and pressure from the boardroomAI adoption is increasingly being driven from the top. Boards are asking organisations what they have done with AI and, importantly, what measurable impact it has created. Mathangi discusses both the opportunities and the risks of this pressure.18:35 – Leadership is hard 95% of the timeMathangi offers a candid perspective on leadership: most days can be difficult and can test your sense of purpose. But the small percentage of moments when you see meaningful impact can make all that difficulty worthwhile.19:15 – Choosing a bigger canvas over compensationThroughout her career, Mathangi has made decisions based on one guiding principle: where can she create the maximum impact? At times, that has meant walking away from significant compensation and lifestyle benefits in exchange for a larger canvas on which to build and contribute.20:55 – A lesson from her mother: “Keep your job”Mathangi shares one of the most important pieces of advice she received from her mother. Through motherhood, travel, guilt and the many pressures women encounter, she remained determined not to compromise on her career.21:40 – Designing life around a career, not a career around everything elseRather than fitting her career around domestic responsibilities, Mathangi says she consciously worked to organise her personal life so that her career could continue. She reflects on the grit required to sustain a career over more than two decades.23:20 – The invisible infrastructure behind a long careerMathangi speaks with gratitude about mentors, organisations and, especially, her family. She explains why support at home is foundational to sustaining a demanding career—and why a headwind at home can be far harder to overcome than challenges at work.25:00 – Staying rooted in Bangalore while building a global careerDespite opportunities to relocate internationally, Mathangi made a conscious decision to keep Bangalore as her family's home base. Instead of treating that as a limitation, she built her career around the constraint—travelling extensively while remaining rooted in one place.27:00 – The story behind nearly 100 patentsMathangi credits the innovation ecosystem at [24]7.ai for creating the conditions in which patentable ideas could flourish. She discusses why innovation requires more than individual creativity—it also needs organisational encouragement, funding, legal support and processes.28:20 – What makes an idea patent-worthy?Not every mathematically sophisticated model becomes a patent. Mathangi explains that patentable ideas need novelty, meaningful technological application and executability. She reflects on what she learned about innovation, prior art and protecting ideas during her time in an organisation that actively encouraged invention.29:58 – The ecosystem that enables innovationReflecting on Mathangi's experience of filing nearly 100 patents, the conversation highlights how innovation is rarely an individual effort alone. A supportive organisational ecosystem—including encouragement from the team, financial resources, processes and institutional support—can make a significant difference in turning ideas into protected innovations.31:15 – Career advice for young women: build grit and resilienceMathangi's first piece of advice is particularly for young women entering the workforce: develop the grit not only to grow, but first to survive and persist. She speaks candidly about the headwinds women can encounter over the course of a career, including societal biases, workplace biases and even self-imposed pressures.31:50 – Why biases can become more visible as women progressMathangi reflects on something she wishes she had understood earlier: biases may become more pronounced as women move into more senior positions. Being aware of this possibility, she says, can help women build the resilience needed to navigate difficult moments without being completely shaken by them.32:55 – “Resilience is the crux of a long career”Her advice is simple and powerful: don't give up. For women in particular, where the headwinds may be stronger, resilience and the ability to keep going are fundamental to sustaining a long career.33:10 – Advice for AI professionals: start with the problem, not the technologyWhether the technology is AI, LLMs, data science, machine learning or whatever comes next, one thing remains constant: the problem. Mathangi urges technology professionals to develop genuine empathy for the person experiencing the problem they are trying to solve.33:35 – Let the problem guide the solutionRather than starting with a technology and searching for a problem to fit it into, Mathangi advocates the reverse: understand and empathise with a meaningful problem, and then use your skills and technology to solve it. Finding the right problem to work on, she suggests, can shape as much as 90% of a career.34:00 – Exposure, curiosity and finding problems worth solvingFinding meaningful problems requires stepping outside one's immediate world—speaking with people, seeking different perspectives and actively looking for opportunities to contribute. This mindset is valuable whether someone is just beginning their career or is already a senior executive.34:25 – Ending where the conversation began: empathyThe episode comes full circle. What began as a discussion about empathy in AI ends with empathy as Mathangi's central piece of career advice: understand the people and problems you are solving for. Alongside grit and resilience, empathy becomes the connecting thread across technology, innovation, leadership and a long career.Quotable quotes“Machines can do empathy at scale,” “Give me a handkerchief, I'll make it into a huge blanket and then paint on it,” “Whatever it is, I'm not going to compromise my career—and I'm unabashedly so.”Brief BioMathangi Sri Ramachandran is an accomplished technology leader, data scientist, and AI practitioner with extensive experience in building and scaling data-driven products, platforms, and teams. Over the course of her career, she has worked at the intersection of technology, data, artificial intelligence, and business, helping organisations translate complex technical possibilities into meaningful outcomes.Beyond her professional achievements, Mathangi is passionate about building strong technology communities, mentoring the next generation of professionals, and encouraging more women to grow and thrive in technology and leadership roles. She brings a valuable combination of deep technical expertise, leadership experience, curiosity, and a practical perspective on how technology continues to shape the way we work and build.In this conversation, we explore Mathangi's journey through the world of technology and data, the experiences and choices that have shaped her career, and the lessons she has gathered along the way.Mathangi can be reached at https://www.linkedin.com/in/mathangisri/ 

👉 Únete a nuestra comunidad El Mapa de la Ansiedad en Skool: https://www.skool.com/elmapadelaansiedad ¿Es posible que una experiencia mística tenga una explicación biológica? En este episodio de La Teoría de la Mente exploramos la fascinante frontera entre la neurología y la espiritualidad. Partiendo de las investigaciones del neurólogo V.S. Ramachandran sobre la epilepsia del lóbulo temporal, analizamos cómo nuestro cerebro interpreta el mundo, crea significados y a veces, ante la incertidumbre, construye certezas que pueden tanto sostenernos como secuestrarnos. No se trata de reducir la experiencia humana a una simple descarga eléctrica, sino de entender cómo nuestro sistema nervioso procesa lo sagrado, lo simbólico y lo intenso. Hablamos de la diferencia entre intensidad y verdad, de la importancia de no confundir el mapa con el territorio y de cómo la madurez emocional consiste, en gran medida, en aprender a convivir con el misterio sin necesidad de cerrarlo todo con respuestas rápidas.

WHAT'S EMERGING AND WHAT IT MEANSThe question is shifting from “should writers use AI” to “what kind of writing is worth doing.” Tim Moon argues the shame regime around AI use is making honest conversation harder. The Atlantic piece shows the detection question is real but temporary — and the deeper question is what's lost when the thinking that produces writing goes away. Ramachandran shows the Commonwealth Prize fiasco was really a story about what we'd been rewarding. Sun and Morine both argue the writer's comparative advantage is not the absence of AI but the presence of voice and testimony and the kind of writing only this writer would do.For the writers I'm trying to publish at Crossroads—for the writers in the cohort, for the writers I'm talking to in discovery calls—this is the frame I want to model. We are not the press that takes a position on AI. We are the press that asks whether every paragraph is bearing weight, whether the voice on the page is the writer's voice, whether the manuscript contains things the writer brought back from somewhere only they have been.Those questions can be asked of a manuscript written entirely by hand or one written with AI assistance or anything in between. The questions are the editorial standard. The tools the writer used to get there are the writer's business.What's freeing about this conversation is that it lets serious writers be honest about their actual practice without performing a position. That's what Sun and Ramachandran and Moon and Morine are doing. That's the tone I want for Crossroads, for the show, and for the writers we're working with.THE READING LIST- Sanjana Ramachandran, The Print — Should we leave writing to AI?- The Atlantic — How to Tell AI Writing (May 2026)- Tim Moon, Substack — AI: The Scarlet Letters- Jasmine Sun, jasmi.news — Comparative Advantage of Independent Writers- Nicholas Morine on LinkedIn — Mile Wide, Inch Deep---If you're working on a manuscript and want a publisher who thinks this way about the editorial standard—voice, testimony, weight per paragraph—Crossroads is that press.We're in our founding season through summer 2026 with founding-rate engagements.Discovery call → 20 min, free, let's chat.Author Engagement and First Draft Cohort here!—Chad Get full access to The Descent at chadprevost.substack.com/subscribe

pWotD Episode 3295: Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 322,104 views on Sunday, 10 May 2026 our article of the day is Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.The Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu is the head of government of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. In accordance with the Constitution of India, the governor is the state's nominal head, but real executive authority rests with the chief minister. Following elections to the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, the state's governor usually invites the party (or coalition) with a majority of seats to form the government. The governor appoints the chief minister, whose council of ministers are collectively responsible to the assembly. Given that he has the confidence of the assembly, the chief minister's term is for five years and is subject to no term limits.Since 1950, Tamil Nadu has had 14 chief ministers. The first four chief ministers belonged to the Indian National Congress, of which K. Kamaraj held the post for the longest for more than nine years. With the rise of Dravidian parties in the state, C. N. Annadurai of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) became the first non-Congress chief minister in 1969. Annadurai, who was from the Tamil film industry, and since his tenure, a significant number of the state's chief ministers have hailed from the industry.M. Karunanidhi of the DMK succeeded Annadurai, and was the longest-serving chief minister, who held the office for nearly nineteen years across five tenures. M. G. Ramachandran of the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) took office 1977 and served for a decade across three terms. V. N. Janaki Ramachandran of the AIADMK was the first woman to hold the position of chief minister in 1987. J.

With elections in Tamil Nadu gearing up, one development drawing sharp attention is the entry of Vijay, whose political debut is expected to command a significant share of the vote. He comes from a long line of figures in the State who have transitioned from cinema to politics. In Tamil Nadu, the film world and politics have mutually benefited each other. The Dravidian movement changed the face of cinema. C. N. Annadurai, founder of the DMK, and former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi deeply influenced Tamil cinema. Cinema became a medium to propagate ideas of social reform. The dialogues Karunanidhi penned for Parasakthi, starring Sivaji Ganesan in the lead role, marked a clear departure from a cinema that had been largely dominated by songs. This helped the DMK secure power in Tamil Nadu. Similarly, M. G. Ramachandran, popularly known as MGR, used cinema to meticulously cultivate an image that later helped him in politics, going on to become the Chief Minister of the State. But does entering politics necessarily guarantee success? And how crucial has cinema been in defining the political landscape of Tamil Nadu? Learn more about your ad choices.

We unpack why the “SaaS-Pocalypse” is less about software dying and more about buyers finally right sizing cloud and marketplace deals with better data. We dig into AI unit economics, token driven cost volatility, and how procurement, FinOps, and venture capital are being rewritten in real time. • Flywl as a cloud meta marketplace across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud • Buyer pain and buyer empathy as the product design center • Why AI inference costs make traditional FinOps reactive • Treating a marketplace purchase as a transaction lifecycle asset • Real time consumption tracking, alerts, and contract renegotiation timing • Outcome based pricing challenges with token variability and agentic workflows • Revenue recognition uncertainty in consumption and outcome models • Why humans still matter in go to market despite AI agents • The data cleanup problem in procurement and the need for universal product IDs • Why enterprises are not rushing to build all SaaS internally with AI • 2026 VC dynamics, mega rounds, capital concentration, and what counts as real recurring revenue “SaaS-Pocalypse” makes for a great headline, but the real shockwave is quieter and more disruptive: enterprise buyers finally understand their cloud environment well enough to demand better deals, better governance, and real proof of value. We sit down for a roundtable on cloud marketplaces, AI unit economics, and the new reality of software procurement where a purchase is no longer a static line item, it's a living asset you have to monitor, benchmark, and continuously right size. Ankur Srivastava, CEO and founder of Flywl, explains why he built a cloud meta marketplace to unify buying and selling across AWS Marketplace, Azure, and Google Cloud and why “buyer empathy” is the only way to fix a broken procurement playbook. Priya Ramachandran, founder and managing partner at Foster Ventures, connects the dots from operator experience to investing, and breaks down why traditional FinOps can't keep up with AI inference costs, token volatility, and outcome-based pricing models like per ticket resolved. Then we zoom out to the 2026 venture capital environment: mega rounds, capital concentration, and the debate over whether AI-native efficiency makes old funding assumptions obsolete. Along the way, we tackle an agentic economy question: when algorithms negotiate with algorithms, what happens to trust, brand, and human relationships in go to market?Ankur Srivastava: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ankursrivas/Ankur Srivastava is the CEO and Founder of Flywl, the world's first cloud meta-marketplace transforming how enterprises buy and sell software across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud.

Educational Pearls: Physiologic stimulation of ventilation occurs through changes in levels of: Arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) Arterial oxygen (PaO2) Hypercapnia is an elevated level of CO2 in the blood - this primarily drives ventilation Hypoxia is a decreased level of O2 in the body's tissues - the backup drive for ventilation Patients at risk of hypercapnia should maintain an O2 saturation between 88-92% Normal O2 saturation is 95-100% In patients who chronically retain CO2, their main drive for ventilation becomes hypoxia An audit was performed of SpO2 observations of all patients with a target range of 88–92% at a single hospital over a four-year period This found that excessive oxygen administration was more common than insufficient oxygen and is associated with an increased risk of harm Individuals at risk of hypercapnia include but are not limited to patients with COPD, hypoventilation syndrome, or altered mental status References Homayoun Kazemi, Douglas C.

Thoughts on the episode? Let us know.Divya Ramachandran helps startup founders do the hard work needed to bring new ideas into the world.And while she advises on strategy and investment and go-to-market and minimum viable product, her real focus lies in sharpening the mind and body of her clients.That is, she guides them to clarity, which helps them prioritize and make better decisions.And she helps them explore their energy expenditure. Energy is partly about working long hours, but it's also related to how much the founder's identity is bound up in the eventual success or failure of the business.Through emotional clarity and self-awareness, people who are doing hard things to make the world a better place can find peace and joy even within the most intense moments of the struggle.Enjoy!LinksDivya's WebsiteThe Guest House, by Rumi (translation Coleman Barks)Support the Show.

While all eyes and brains are on what SCOTUS thinks about making Trump emperor-king, a lesser known case will be heard Monday that could have a huge impact on how social media can (or cannot) keep election workers safe this year. Murthy v. Missouri arrives at the high court as the result a lawsuit filed by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana, along with a group of social media users—including some doctors and right-wing commentators—who argued that officials in the Biden administration censored their online speech about COVID-19, the 2020 election, among other issues The plaintiffs don't claim that the administration directly silenced their speech. Instead, they argue that, by working with social media companies to limit the spread of misinformation, the government unlawfully chilled the free expression of their ideas. Gowri Ramachandran serves as deputy director in the Brennan Center's Democracy program.The amicus brief filed by her team from the Brennan Center in Murthy draws the Justices attention to another aspect of election disinformation . Ramachandran explains to host Dahlia Lithwick that combating election disinformation has always been important, but it is especially critical now, as election workers struggle to keep on top of voting issues. Later in the show for Slate plus subscribers, Mark Joseph Stern joins to talk about the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals taking a swing at teens' access to contraception, and a new effort to combat the scourge of judge-shopping.  Learn more about your ad choices.
