You’ll learn how to ask S-Lady to find a family member through Find My so you don’t have to call them, and why Command-Backtick (one key up from Tab) cycles windows inside a single app while Command-1, 2, 3 hops tabs in Safari, Chrome, Comet, and even Mail. You’ll follow Dave down the iPhone system data rabbit hole, where 59GB of mystery storage led to a full wipe, a genuinely useful “keep eSIMs and erase data” option, and then 52GB creeping right back three days later. You’ll turn an always-on Mac mini into an AirPlay music server you drive from the Remote app, so the party keeps playing after you make a beer run. You’ll discover that Terminal’s Secure Keyboard Entry checkbox is why your TextExpander and Rocket Typist snippets quit firing. And you’ll hear the cheapest Wi-Fi fix in history: delete the speed test app. Plus, AI as a genealogy research partner: the kind that surfaces buried leads you verify yourself. Don’t Get Caught after a macOS update wondering why Hazel stopped filing your bank statements: the rules were fine, but Spotlight’s index was in a bad state, so rebuild it with OnyX or Terminal and reboot. You’ll get real numbers on the Apple Upgrade Program: zero percent APR, financed through Klarna, three mandatory choices at the end of your term, and a “good condition” clause nobody defines. You’ll learn the Apple Watch Ultra 4’s screen really is bigger than Series 12’s, and that a 99-cent app called O2 Buddy puts blood oxygen back on your wrist. Then you’ll rethink family contact cards using smart lists built on a keyword in the Notes field, and hear why Contacts is the one thing Dave has ever lost to sync. Watch where new contacts get saved, or you’ll be staring at a text thinking…old contact, who dis? Closing it out: why Siri still wants a data connection for requests that should never leave your phone. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1160 for Monday, September 21st, 2026 September 21st: Wife Appreciation Day MGG Monthly Giveaway – Win a license to SuperDuper! 4 The MGG Merch Store is Live!

In this episode, Roy sits down with Mike Swigunski, entrepreneur, investor, and #1 bestselling author on a mission to help millions of people Earn From Anywhere. Mike traces his path from a small Missouri suburb where he didn't take his first flight until 18, through running a university study-abroad program at 20, to a devastating turning point at 22 — losing his mother to breast cancer just a month before graduation — that pushed him to book a one-way flight to Europe rather than take a safe corporate job. He shares how he became employee #4 at Empire Flippers, helping scale it into a 100-person remote team and the world's largest curated marketplace for online businesses, and the "POWER" framework he built from watching thousands of acquisitions to identify what actually makes a business valuable. They dig into the platform risks of Amazon FBA and affiliate businesses, the coming shift toward advertising inside AI chat tools, the real craft behind his TEDx talk and the hero's journey structure behind it, his NOMAD framework for choosing where to live abroad, and his new venture, Dividends — a platform letting everyday investors put as little as $100 into fractional ownership of cash-flowing online businesses.

Remote hiring, freely available deepfake tools and harvested identities have created an opportunity that organized criminals are now taking seriously. State-backed operations are training workers to apply for remote roles using stolen credentials and proxy interviewers. The aim is the salary and access to source code, customer data and intellectual property once they are inside. Recruiters are the ones meeting these people first, and in most organizations they are assessing them with a background check and their own judgment while IT, InfoSec and legal are rarely involved. So how seriously should employers be treating this, and what does a credible response look like? My guest this week is Lauren Furey, Principal Product Manager at Proof, where she leads product work on candidate fraud and identity verification. In our conversation, Lauren explains how these attacks work, where hiring processes are most exposed, and what TA teams can do about it. In the interview, we discuss: Bots, deepfakes, identity harvesting and proxy interviewers The criminal motivations behind state-backed infiltration Why the background check is no longer enough on its own How much recruiters overestimate their ability to spot a fake Why remote hiring created the gaps bad actors exploit Building identity continuity through the hiring process Making fraud prevention a shared responsibility with IT and InfoSec The candidate experience trade-off and where to place verification Verifiable credentials and protecting candidates' own identities Practical first steps and what does the future look like? https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurennfurey/ https://www.proof.com Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Drop us a line or two . . .## LONG SUMMARYThis episode opens mid-life, mid-mess — which is pretty on-brand for CDQ. Queenie kicks things off with a life update that's equal parts exhausting and quietly heroic: her mom, Mumsy, has been transferred to Sunnyview Hospital for acute rehabilitation following a pelvic fracture complicated by pneumonia. And it has been, to put it mildly, a week.The opioid reaction alone is a whole story. Mumsy — described as a tiny little bird of a woman at 105 pounds — went full superhuman after being administered medication that did not agree with her, requiring five adults (including two men, Queenie is quick to note) to safely get her back into bed. She was subsequently assigned one-on-one monitoring with what Queenie cheerfully describes as "a robot looking thing" watching her around the clock. Thursday was, in Queenie's words, a completely lost day. But by the time they're recording, Mumsy is up with a walker, fully participating in therapy, and apparently chatty as ever — which, given the steroid-fueled word avalanche Queenie witnessed upon transfer, seems to be something of a baseline.The path forward is genuinely uncertain: subacute care may follow, options are limited while oxygen stays in the picture, and Queenie is doing what she can, which right now means taking it a day at a time and trying to get to her grandchildren when she can squeeze it in.From the heavy to the delightful: TT received a birthday gift while the two were celebrating on the Cape, and it's a game called Ganja Land — a cannabis-themed Candyland knockoff from the brand Lightly Toasted. TT, who has not yet played it, gives an enthusiastic rundown: eight character pieces (including Mary Jane Mermaid, The Royal Highness, and Weedly Wizard, all dressed appropriately for the occasion), a board full of hidden objects for timed scavenger hunts, trivia cards, fun facts, and a Spotify playlist to set the mood. The goal is to reach the Cannabis Castle and claim the cannabis crown — a bedazzled, marijuana-leaf-encrusted upgrade on the Burger King paper crown. Gameplay involves passing a joint to the left per Ganja Land tradition, and turn order follows the same direction. TT and Queenie immediately begin plotting to play virtually or in person come October.Then Queenie brings an article she'd flagged from Time magazine: what to do when someone gives you the silent treatment. The timing is personal. She'd reached out to a friend she'd lost touch with — wrote a note, explained a difficult five-year stretch, opened the door. Got nothing back. Not even, as she puts it, a fuck you. The article's framework is practical: distinguish between a healthy pause and a deliberate withdrawal, send one calm non-accusatory message, do not chase, do not retaliate with more silence, don't apologize just to get a reaction. When contact resumes: lead with curiosity, describe impact without assuming intent, and if the silence is a pattern rather than a moment, maybe look hard at whether the relationship is worth the real estate it's taking up in your head.Queenie's takeaway is quieter than the article's framework. Reading it gave her permission to let it go — to acknowledge she'd done her part, fulfilled what she calls "the social contract," and move on. TT points out, warmly but pointedly, that reaching out at all was the brave move. It was. And the non-response is its own answer.Which connects to the Fucket List addition: you do not have to respond to everything. Queenie originally pulled this out as a parenting tool — when kids are being fresh or challenging or saying things that don't actually require your engagement, you give yourself permission to just not. She's had to resurrect it lately, for adults. For family situations. For the nurses at the hospital asking her how Mumsy likes her nasal cannula. (Her answer: "What would you do if I wasn't here? Do that.") The relief of not needing to be the one with every answer — not needing to fix, explain, defend, or respond to everything lobbed at you — is, it turns out, just as applicable at 60-something as it was when her kids were teenagers.The episode closes on a more tender note. While the women were on the Cape, two significant losses happened: Dolly Parton and Gloria Steinem. Both are acknowledged with the kind of genuine warmth you can't fake. For Steinem, Queenie has a specific recommendation: Netflix's Final Words — a pre-recorded interview filmed in the last couple of years, designed to air only after her death. Remote cameras, no crew, just Steinem knowing this would be her last on-camera words. Queenie watched it the night Steinem died. She calls it powerful. Forty minutes, not overlong, completely worth it.The conversation turns briefly political — because it has to. Women couldn't get credit in their own names until 1977. Physicians could discuss a woman's health directly with her husband, without involving her. Queenie and TT were already out of high school by then. It doesn't feel like ancient history to them. It feels like a warning. The episode wraps with an original song — "What Would Gloria Do?" — a full-throated tribute to Steinem that closes the show the way Steinem apparently closed most things: with glasses on, something sharp to say, and zero apologies.---## SHORT SUMMARYQueenie opens up about a harrowing week navigating her mother's transfer to a rehabilitation hospital — steroids, an opioid reaction, and five adults required to contain a 105-pound woman — while finding small things to hold onto, like TT's birthday gift of Ganja Land, a cannabis Candyland that they're already plotting to play. The episode gets real about the silent treatment, the art of not responding to everything, and the very different kinds of quiet that can settle over a relationship. It closes by honoring Dolly Parton and Gloria Steinem — two women who showed up, in completely different ways, and never once made themselves small.---## EPISODE VIBEThis one has weight to it, but it wears it lightly. It's the kind of episode that starts in the thick of a hard week — hospital transfers, oxygen dependency, a mom who needed five people to keep her safe — and somehow finds its way to a birthday gift and a cannabis board game without it feeling like whiplash. There's exhaustion here, yes, but also a kind of hard-won clarity that comes through in everything from the silent treatment conversation to the Fucket List to the tribute to Gloria Steinem. Queenie is navigating a lot — caregiving, grief-adjacent uncertainty, a friendship that quietly closed a door — and TT is steady beside her, funny when it helps, serious when it matters. The emotional throughline is permission: permission to let go, to not respond, to stop being the one with all the answers. It's a midlife episode in the truest sense — not defeated, not falsely cheerful, just honest about where they are and who they're choosing to be.

Certain smells can instantly transport you back to another time and place — sometimes more vividly than a photograph ever could. Why is your sense of smell so closely tied to memory, and why are those memories often so emotional?

You can't reach a human being, the chatbot sends you in circles, you wait on hold forever, and sometimes it seems as if the company would simply prefer that you give up. So what actually works when you have a problem and need someone to fix it? Christopher Elliott has spent years helping consumers get results, and he explains the strategies that work, the mistakes that can make things worse, and how some companies manage to provide extraordinary service while others fail miserably.

Remote controls are incredibly convenient — right up until you lose one in the couch cushions or stare at a row of buttons you have never pressed and have no idea what they do. And the remote has changed far more than just the way we watch television. The surprisingly interesting story of how remote controls came to be, how they changed our behavior, and where they may be headed next is told by Caetlin Benson-Allott. She is a professor of English and Film & Media Studies at Georgetown University and author of the book Remote Control (https://amzn.to/4xDig5W).

WTF Just Happened?!: Afterlife Evidence, Paranormal + Spirituality without the Woo
Luciano Arruda, president of the International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA), has been collecting information through remote viewing and psychic abilities since 1989. He shares the incredible story of President Jimmy Carter witnessing something that proved remote viewing works: psychic abilities finding a missing plane. Remote viewing is a structured protocol that allows people to access information that is non-local and not attached to time and space without knowing what the target is. Luciano has experienced remarkable precognition throughout his life. He anticipates what people will say seconds before they speak, hears future events like a blue car pulling out of a parking lot three seconds before it happens, and accesses information through meditation that most people miss. He explains why remote viewing matters more than general psychic abilities: it's structured, allows you to work with groups, and keeps practitioners humble by showing them where they're wrong so they can learn. He discusses government remote viewing programs, how remote viewing differs from ESP and clairvoyance, and why the CIA used this technique. He shares specific examples of remote viewing sessions that provided accurate information about targets people never knew beforehand. Luciano emphasizes that anyone can learn remote viewing. It's like learning violin. Some will excel; others will stay at beginner level. But everyone can improve their intuition and decision-making. He invites people to practice free through IRVA's website and attend their annual conference.

In the remote Pacific, emergency medical transport is not a simple call away. Across hundreds of miles of open ocean separating island communities, sudden illness or severe injury can quickly become fatal without rapid intervention.Pacific Mission Aviation pilots Mark Abbott and Brock Welge operate on the front lines of remote search-and-rescue and critical medevac flights, serving remote island peoples.The Christian nonprofit's mission is to provide free emergency evacuations, rescue and disaster relief, medical and food supplies, and even educational resources across Micronesia and the Philippines.In this episode, Abbott and Welge walk me through the unique reality of aviation in the remote Pacific. How do these self-funded aviators execute lifesaving operations? What are the dangers of landing on short, and sometimes neglected, airstrips? And what drew them from working in corporate America to serving remote island communities?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
Robotic surgery should solve the entire clinical problem, not become another expensive tool in the operating room. In this episode, Tomas Baltrunas, Chief Medical Officer and Founder of Sentante, discusses the development of an intuitive robotic platform designed for endovascular procedures. He explains that successful medical robotics must support the entire procedure while allowing physicians to work with familiar instruments and established techniques. Tomas also shares Sentante's progress, including European approval for peripheral procedures and FDA Breakthrough Device designation for remote stroke treatment. He believes remote robotic care has the potential to expand access to specialized treatment and reduce healthcare disparities regardless of a patient's location. Tune in to learn how remote robotic procedures could make advanced vascular and stroke care more accessible! Resources: Connect with and follow Tomas Baltrunas on LinkedIn.

Justin Tumanoski sits down with Canadian investor Daryl Babineau to break down how he buys U.S. real estate remotely, including two Ohio deals closed with no money out of pocket. Daryl shares how his construction background helps him evaluate properties from photos and videos, why a clear buy box matters, and how he structured one deal with 0% seller financing. They also explore his clinical housing model, where master leases with operators create housing for seniors and veterans while producing stronger cash flow than traditional rentals. The conversation closes with practical advice on partnerships, active income, and ways new investors can get involved by bringing deals or capital to experienced operators.

How often do you take a mid-morning tea break? I mean a proper break, where you stop work for fifteen minutes or so mid-morning? It turns out very few people do this these days. And if they do get themselves a cup of tea or coffee, it's done on the go or at their desks while continuing to work. Complete madness. Is it any wonder why so many people feel burnt out, exhausted and unable to spend any quality time with their nearest and dearest? This week, we're looking at why bringing back your mid-morning and afternoon breaks might be the most productive thing you could do.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. Back in the day, in traditional knowledge work jobs, most people had to be at their workplace by 9 AM. You would get a tea break mid-morning, usually around 11 or 11:15, then you would get a lunch break, probably 12:30 or 1 PM, then in the afternoon there'd be another tea break around 3:00 pm, and finally you would finish work, perhaps at 5:30 PM Our days were structured. Time anchors marked our day: start times, mid-morning breaks, lunchtimes, afternoon breaks, and when we finished work. Over the last few years or so, and certainly since the pandemic, these natural time anchors have been disappearing. Working from home, having more flexible working times, and working across multiple different time zones have all accelerated the erosion of these natural breaks. But these time anchors mattered. They told your brain to take a rest. Today, because those time anchors have practically disappeared, we end up switching our attention from one problem to the next. To an email or a message, back to the report we're supposed to finish today, then to the presentation due next week, a quick check of a project that we're working on to answer a question. It's just non-stop. No time for a tea break or sometimes even a lunch break. Now, because there are no natural rhythms in our days, and no time anchors to give us a break, we end up feeling completely exhausted at the end of them. But it didn't just happen at work. We also had time anchors at home too. We would wake up at the same time, go to bed at the same time, and sit down to watch our favourite TV shows at the same time. We'd also eat our lunch, breakfast, and dinner at the same time. These were mini time anchors that told our brain to rest. When you remove those anchors, your brain doesn't know when to rest, and it just gets completely worn out. This week's question is about why you feel so exhausted and tired, with no energy left to even decide what to have for dinner and what to do about it to bring some sense of calm back into your days So, without further ado. I'd like to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's Question, but she's once again on one of her little holidays. So, I'm afraid you're stuck with my voice this week. This week's question comes from Paul. Paul asks, hi Carl, I was recently promoted, and now my days just feel like a blur, and I struggle to see if I have done anything important or not. It just feels like I spend all day putting out other people's fires. I rarely get time for a proper lunch break, and I feel completely worn out by the time I get home. What can I do to bring some focus back to my days? Hi Paul, thank you for your question. To get us started, let's step back in time a little. Office work in the 1950s and 60s in the UK was pretty structured for most people. You were expected to arrive at your desk on time every day. Habitual lateness was a serious disciplinary offence. Then there were recognised mid-morning and afternoon breaks, where we'd meet colleagues from other departments and talk football, cricket or what was on the TV last night. We rarely talked about work during those 15 minutes or so. Those anchors were like shared signals. You started together, breaked together, and finished together. Now, everything is blurred. Remote work, flexible hours, global teams, all great in theory. But in practice, it means people are never really off. And never really on either. It's just a permanent in-between. That mushiness can really wear you down. We've lost that daily rhythm. Even if it felt rigid, there was a kind of contained calm. A boundary around tasks. Now we just dip in and out all day. Messages, calls, emails all blending together. And this isn't just nostalgia. In many ways, I was lucky to be a smoker in my early days of work. My breaks were a chance to grab a crafty cigarette, meet other smokers, and talk about our weekends and the crazy things we did. I remember, as a salesperson, always heading out back for a cigarette after each appointment. It was a chance to reset after a meeting with a customer and prepare myself for the next appointment. And while the phenomenon called “attention residue” wasn't recognised in the early 90s, we now know that our brains don't simply turn off from one context to the next; we tend to think through what happened, perhaps plan out when we will do what we committed to, and process our emotions. And as a salesperson, there were often a lot of emotions, usually around frustration and disappointment—I wasn't a great salesperson. Our new way of working carries a real cognitive cost with all that context switching. There's no time to reset or deal with that inevitable attention residue. Without natural breaks in the day, your brain never gets to rest or reset. You might think, “Oh, I'm being flexible”, but what your nervous system feels is a constant low-level of anxiety. It's like eating all day but never having a proper meal. You're full, but unsatisfied and somehow exhausted. So, Paul, to get things back under control, recognise that you do need to give your brain a chance to catch up. It needs a break and time to reset so you can start the next task or meeting prepared. Now, we're not talking about a lot of time. Ten to fifteen minutes; that's all you need. I was recently working with a new client, and she shared her calendar with me. From the moment she began work on Monday morning, she was in back-to-back meetings. There was no break or buffer time between meetings. We discovered that all these meetings had consequences. There was no time to prepare for future meetings, and because she never got a break, by the time the meetings were over, usually around 3:30 pm, she was so exhausted that all she did was read through her emails and messages. She just didn't have the energy to think about replying to any of them. The solution was to enforce a ten-minute break between meetings, a 30-minute mid-morning buffer break and a proper lunch break. While this ultimately reduced the number of meetings she attended each day, it also reduced her exhaustion and gave her energy later in the day to think and respond to emails and messages. When I spoke to her last week, I asked her if she felt she needed to add more meetings back into her day, and she laughed before replying, “Not a chance!” She is getting more work done, feeling less tired, and has time to read through the next day's meeting agendas. It is often a case of taking one step back to move two steps forward. Remove one meeting a day to free up time and allow your brain to catch up with everything coming at you. A lot of this comes back to the principles I teach in my Quiet Productivity Method programme. Slowing down produces better results, allows for better thinking, and that leads to fewer mistakes. If you watch interviews with CEOs of large companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Google, they all seem so relaxed and laid-back. These people run huge companies, yet you sense that if a catastrophe were to occur at any of them, Satya Nadella, Sundar Pichai, or, until recently, Tim Cook would calmly assess what happened before offering a calm, well-thought-out response. And yet, if you were to search for the daily routine of these CEOs, you'd find a well-structured day with plenty of breaks, including lunch breaks that avoid talking shop and plenty of quiet thinking time. Another tip I can give you here is to use pen and paper to map out your day. You don't need anything as sophisticated as a Franklin Planner or Bullet Journal, a simple A5 notebook would do. Before you end the day, give yourself 5 to 10 minutes to draw a line down the middle of the page. On the left, write out your appointments for tomorrow, and on the right, list out the tasks you need to or should do. By writing your appointments first, you can see how much time you have available for doing tasks. If you had six hours of meetings, took a 1-hour lunch break, and had at least 10 minutes between meetings, you would likely have only 30 minutes for tasks. You'd see that and would design a day that reflects that. That's often the problem with a 100% digital system. You get lulled into believing you can do more than is possible, and you end up frustrated and disappointed by what you can actually do. There's nothing wrong with you. It's just the way digital systems are designed. You can throw 1000s of tasks in there without any problems at all. Your problems start when you decide you need to do those tasks and you realise there's no time to do them. This is why, in my recent YouTube video, I talked about why I keep coming back to a Franklin Planner. It stops me from being overly ambitious, and I have a simple record of what I got done each day. I jokingly tell people who ask why I use such an antiquated planner—the Franklin Planner's nearly 50 years old now—that my planner keeps me sane. And it does. It alerts me very quickly if I am trying to do too much in one day. One final bit of advice I can give you, Paul, is something that recently worked well with a client of mine who had a similar problem with fire-fighting all day. He was very sceptical about time blocking, believing he had to be available for his team in case they needed him urgently. The truth was he'd accidentally trained his team to come to him with all sorts of problems that didn't need his input. So, we tested blocking 9:30 to 11:00 am each morning to do his most important work of the day. The caveat here was that he told his team that if they needed him, they had to come to him before 9:30; otherwise, it would have to wait until after 11:00. The first week was challenging, and people tried to interrupt. But the second week he began to see some serious results. He began getting his work done; backlogs disappeared, and his team began respecting his time. Fewer fires, fewer interruptions and a lot less stress. Often, the fix for our time management problems is a lot simpler than we may imagine. Give your brain a chance to rest and reset between meetings and sessions of work (you only need 10 to 15 minutes), protect time for your most important work, and ensure you have a 10- to 15-minute buffer between meetings. And remember, you may be able to rush from one problem to the next. But your brain is not quite as fast. It needs time to process your thoughts and emotions. Give it a chance. And take a tea break and your lunch break. Not doing so will leave you exhausted and worn out at the end of the day. By the way, I can recommend a nice cup of Yorkshire Tea mid-morning and in the afternoon. It'll leave you feeling refreshed and ready for anything. Thank you, Paul, for your question and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.
ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME — Water, Stone and the Little RuinPodcast SummaryIn ArTEEtude 351, “The House That Built Me — Water, Stone and the Little Ruin,” visual artist Detlef Schlich continues his journey back to Lackavaun on the remote Northside of the Mizen Peninsula, where he began a radically different life in 2003.After the arrival described in episode 350, Schlich now finds himself largely alone in a damaged rural house without running water, learning how to create the basic conditions for living. With no driving licence, a scooter becomes his connection to Goleen, supplies, local knowledge and the outside world. Sand, gravel, cement, a concrete mixer and eventually belongings transported from Cologne slowly turn survival into construction.Rather than immediately tackling the main house, Schlich begins with a small ruin beside it. The building becomes both shelter and experiment: a place to learn how to mix mortar, rebuild walls, restore a chimney and transform an abandoned structure into a functioning home.Water becomes the central element of the episode. Before a borehole existed, construction water had to be carried by hand from a nearby spring and poured bucket by bucket into large rain barrels. Only later did Schlich discover that the source was locally regarded as a holy well, retrospectively giving the physical act of building an unexpected ritual dimension.The arrival of a huge drilling rig marks another transformation. Approximately seventy metres are drilled into the ground before water can finally be brought directly into the building. Material extracted from deep beneath the landscape is reused around the property, while plumbing, electricity, fire and a loft bed gradually turn the little ruin into a genuinely habitable space.Looking back more than two decades later, Schlich recognises something he could not yet articulate in 2003: he was not simply learning how to rebuild a house. The repetitive physical relationship between body, landscape, water, stone and material was beginning to shape an artistic language that would later emerge in his work with ritual, media archaeology and performance.The episode closes with the song “The House That Built Me.” performed by Los Inorganicos.A ruin has become a home.And now the real work can begin.About Detlef SchlichDetlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork, Ireland.His artistic practice moves between performance, photography, painting, sound, installation, film, music, podcasting, and digital image-making. Across these fields, Schlich reflects on the human condition, the relationship between ritual and technology, and the changing role of the artist in digital culture.As a media archaeologist, he explores how media shape perception, memory, culture, politics, and artistic expression. His work often uses the figure of the digital shaman as an alter ego — a method for navigating the space between ancient ritual structures, contemporary media, and technological transformation.Research & Artistic MethodDetlef Schlich's artistic research is rooted in his essay Shamanism, Art and Digital Culture: Cause and Effect, which investigates the relationship between ritual, artistic transformation, media, and digital culture.Download here for free:Shamanism, Art and Digital Culture: Cause and Effecthttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectBuilding on this foundation, Schlich developed Multilayerism: A New Paradigm in Contemporary Art – A Manifesto, an artistic method and conceptual framework for understanding contemporary art through layers of media, memory, technology, ritual, emotion, misunderstanding, and lived experience.Read here:Multilayerism: A New Paradigm in Contemporary Art – A Manifesto by Detlef Schlichhttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/375665507_Multilayerism_A_New_Paradigm_in_Contemporary_Art_-_A_Manifesto_by_Detlef_SchlichTogether, these texts form the theoretical backbone of Schlich's ongoing work as a visual artist, media archaeologist, ritual designer, musician, and host of the Arteetude podcast.WEBSITE LINKS Music ProjectsWAW / Wild Atlantic WayWAW is the music project by Detlef Schlich and Dirk Schlömer.Official YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@WAWBandFrom the forthcoming WAW album The Stories of Nil YoungTwo songs from WAW's developing album project The Stories of Nil Young form part of a mythopoetic journey along the Nile, where river, memory, loss, cooperation, and hope flow into music.AfricaSmileAfricaSmile follows the Nile as an imagined journey from its sources to the Mediterranean Sea — a river of memory, movement, rhythm, and myth. The song turns the meeting of the White Nile and the Blue Nile into a fragile image of cooperation. It is not a naïve peace anthem, but a wounded musical hope: two different currents meeting, listening, and still moving forward together.Watch here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnQbsh01YWUThe Nile's Bittersweet SongThe Nile's Bittersweet Song is the first official single by WAW / Wild Atlantic Way — Detlef Schlich and Dirk Schlömer.The song follows the Nile as a river of memory, beauty, loss, and contradiction: a life-giver, but also a force that can take away what it once nourished. Through the story of Kamau, it becomes a poetic reflection on childhood, fragile hope, and the emotional landscape carried by a river that is both kind and cruel.Inspired by East African storytelling traditions and shaped along the Wild Atlantic Way in West Cork, The Nile's Bittersweet Song is a mythopoetic musical journey about water, grief, resilience, and the deep human longing to keep moving with the current.Watch here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33AWko4IkKIWAW on BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, Dirk Schlömer and Detlef Schlich felt compelled to reinterpret Silent Night to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis song emerged from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful coastal Wild Atlantic Way stretches along the west coast.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYouTubeSilent Night Reimagined – A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/exclusive-content
Send us Fan Mail2027 is not one reimbursement change. It's multiple changes moving at different speeds, some proposed, some confirmed, and the most expensive mistake is treating all of them like the same fee-schedule cut. Change 1, Medicare rates: CMS has proposed two 2027 conversion factors. The headline percentage is never your practice's percentage. Model your own top codes. Change 2, global procedures: Same-day E/M billed with a global procedure is getting more scrutiny. Documentation, not billing habit, decides whether it survives an audit. Change 3, specialty codes: New 2027 OB/GYN coding replaces the bundled global obstetric payment. The pattern applies to every specialty as codes get more specific. Change 4, digital care: Remote monitoring reimbursement is becoming more conditional on established-patient status, a documented initiating visit, and employed clinical staff. Change 5, rate transparency: Federal transparency files make commercial negotiated rates newly accessible, setting up next episode's data methodology.

Independent practices hold that data with the least defense in the entire healthcare system: one IT contractor, a server in a closet, and no one whose job it is to think about security. Attackers know it. Why independent practices are the target Three attack vectors specific to practice settings: Phishing emails that look like they are from an EMR vendor, billing company, or payer. Remote access set up for telehealth or post-COVID flexibility that was never properly secured. Third-party vendor access, where a billing company or IT contractor gets breached and the practice is compromised through them. What to do in the first 24 hours if you are hit 1. Isolate immediately. Disconnect affected systems from the network, but do not power them down, powered systems preserve evidence forensic teams need. 2. Call your cyber insurance carrier first, then your attorney. Do not call the attackers, and do not pay anything without guidance. 3. Document everything from the moment you discover the breach. This becomes the foundation of your HIPAA breach report if one is required, and the 60-day notification clock starts at discovery. 4. Do not restore from backup until forensics has cleared the system. Restoring too early can reintroduce the attack.

Send us a message or question! Jane Gulliford Lowes welcomes author, editor, and aviation historian Dan Sharp to dig into the Luftwaffe's bomber plans, from prewar requirements to late war jet concepts. The conversation focuses on how German bomber strategy was shaped by speed, range, and technological ambition, and why so many of the most advanced ideas never arrived in time.They also unpack the long standing myth around the Heinkel 177 dive bomber requirement, showing how the real story is more complicated than the usual explanation.Key topicsWe discuss Dan Sharp's new book, Secret Projects of the Luftwaffe, Volume 2, and why it matters for understanding German bomber development.Dan explains that the Luftwaffe did not expect the Heinkel 111, Dornier 17, and Junkers 87 to remain its long term bomber force.We discuss the 1938 plan to replace older bombers with two fast types, the Junkers 88 and Heinkel 177, in a force of 12,000 aircraft.Dan shares how early Luftwaffe requirements were heavily influenced by prewar aviation experiments, especially the push for speed seen in aircraft like the Heinkel 70.We discuss the idea of the bomber that survives by being fast rather than heavily armed, and how that logic shaped the Schnellbomber and Höhenbomber requirements.Dan shares that Luftwaffe procurement was slow and process driven, so even ambitious requirements took four or five years to reach production.We discuss the gap between planned strength and wartime reality, including the Luftwaffe going to war in 1939 with only 23 Junkers 88s.Dan explains the Grossbomber and Fernbomber concepts, and how they fed into the development of the Heinkel 177.We discuss why the Heinkel 177's problems were driven more by overambitious speed requirements and aerodynamic compromises than by the dive bomber story alone.Dan shares how the supposed dive bomber role for the Heinkel 177 was really about shallow glide attacks, not Ju 87 style near vertical dives.We discuss how the Luftwaffe repeatedly tried to adapt strategy around technology, rather than simply fielding weapons to match a fixed plan.Dan explains the guided weapon effort, including the HS 293 and Fritz X, and how difficult it was to make those systems work in real combat.We discuss the attempted long range bombing of America, including refueling concepts, the America Bomber studies, and the ME 264 and JU 390 family of ideas.Dan shares how late war jet bomber projects like the Heinkel 343 and Junkers 287 reflected a last ditch belief in technological superiority.Timestamps00:00 - Welcome back after the summer break 02:24 - Dan Sharp introduced and the focus on Luftwaffe bomber projects 04:06 - The Luftwaffe's plan to replace older bombers with the Ju 88 and He 177 05:11 - The origins of German bomber requirements before the Luftwaffe era 07:05 - The Heinkel 70 and the obsession with speed 10:10 - Why fast aircraft changed thinking about bomber design 12:36 - Walter Wever and the push for faster bomber types 15:17 - How speed, altitude, and range became separate bomber philosophies 17:02 - How German aircraft procurement actually worked 19:38 - Why new bombers took years to reach service 22:27 - The Luftwaffe's outdated bomber fleet at the outbreak of war 25:23 - Grossbomber and the search for a true heavy bomber 27:19 - Wever's Fernbomber priorities and his death in 1936 31:19 - The real requirement behind Bomber A 33:01 - The meaning of shallow glide attacks and airframe strength categories 35:45 - Why a 40 degree descent was not a Ju 87 style dive 37:23 - The 50 degree change and the mystery around it 39:18 - How the He 177 was engineered for speed 40:54 - The coupled engine arrangement and why it caused problems 42:25 - Remote controlled defensive turrets and evaporative cooling ideas 44:44 - The later myth of the dive bomber requirement 47:32 - Strategy being forced to adapt to technological limits 51:07 - Luftwaffe thinking after the Soviet campaign 55:09 - The shift toward high altitude specialist weapons 57:13 - Guided missiles and the limits of wartime technology 60:51 - The idea of bombing America and the refueling problem 62:48 - The America Bomber studies and extreme range requirements 65:27 - The ME 264, JU 290, and JU 390 concepts 68:00 - Why the America Bomber concept was shelved 70:29 - Late war technological superiority and the endgame 72:14 - Jet bomber projects and the He 343 versus Ju 287 74:46 - The last attempt to revive the jet bomber concept 76:21 - Closing reflections on quality versus quantity in Luftwaffe thinking 77:43 - Where to find Dan Sharp's books 78:25 - Outro and listener support informationAction itemsLook out for Dan Sharp's Secret Projects of the Luftwaffe, Volume 2.Check out Volume 1 if you want the wider background to the series.If you enjoyed the episode, support the podcast by leaving a rating or review and joining the listener community.Support the showPlease subscribe to Never Mind The Dambusters wherever you get your podcasts.

Noob Spearo Podcast | Spearfishing Talk with Shrek and Turbo
At 26, Matty Parker was locked into a Pilbara mining job. He came over for one Coral Sea trip, went home, sold everything inside a couple of months, and drove across Australia to get out of the golden handcuffs. Twenty-five years of spearing later he manages Divers World in Cairns — the biggest and longest-running shop up that way — and runs MBP Spearfishing Charters, and he's the bloke every local kept telling Shrek to interview. This one gets into the weeds properly: his entire dogtooth setup top to tail, the three-point brief he gives clients before a Coral Sea drift ("when you think you're closer, get closer again"), why he keeps a scorecard of every fish landed and lost and what one-in-three actually looks like, the 10–30kg window where doggies get eaten fastest, and why he moves off a spot the moment it fires. There's also a proper, unflinching yarn about the shark situation in North Queensland after an ugly year for Aussie spearos, and Matty's flat-out best answer of the episode — what it costs you to spend two years shooting fish in eight metres. Cost 'em nothing. Gain everything. If you're saving for a blue water trip, thinking about your first big gun, or you just want to hear a bloke who's put in the hours talk about hunting instead of depth numbers, this one's for you. Matty Parker @mbp_spearfishing Spearfishing Gallery (Add guest photos here) Important Timestamps 00:00:44 — Shrek sets up the episode: dogtooth gear, guiding pitfalls, social media's grip on spearos, and the shark conversation nobody wants to have 00:01:20 — Free shout out to Spearo App, a completely free spearfishing forecasting app, and the level of detail that gobsmacked Shrek 00:03:00 — Fish One Hook's power band size calculator, plus the free Noob Spearo scorecards at spearfishingcourses.com.au/scorecard 00:05:34 — Matty comes highly recommended — Shrek explains who kept telling him to get Matty on the show 00:06:49 — Started spearing at 10 in a small northern WA town; the Coral Sea trip at 26 that made him sell up and drive across Australia away from the golden handcuffs of mining 00:09:13 — Why "the trip of a lifetime" is the wrong mindset to bring on charter, and what the fish actually are (a bonus) 00:11:01 — WA vs the East Coast: fish density and shore access over there, weather-dependent reef trips over here 00:13:05 — Seven trout a day in Queensland is "astronomical", and why the North QLD weather is a green zone in itself 00:14:12 — His first Coral Sea mission: two doggies landed before he lost one, then the figures went backwards fast 00:15:07 — Why hiding your gear from other spearos isn't okay — shot placement and gear are the only two things we control, so share them 00:18:22 — THE FULL DOGTOOTH RIG, TOP TO TAIL: a 130–150cm conventional gun (he runs a 70" Riffe Rader), three or four 16mm rubbers, 8.7mm shaft, slip tip, 23m float line, a 3-atmosphere float, a short 2–5m line, and a second 3-atmosphere float. Nothing else 00:21:19 — The shot-placement point most people miss: all that gun power is for getting through a foot-and-a-half of fish, not for taking longer shots 00:22:14 — Stone shots, the anti-climax-then-relief feeling, and why hearing the boys screaming on the surface is the best part 00:23:25 — "Doggies bring out the best and the worst in everyone" — diving on each other and shooting each other's fish vs. proper team work 00:25:33 — What happens in the first 60 seconds after the shot: withstand the first run, then get it up fast, because that's when they get eaten 00:26:31 — Matty's shark theory — the 10–30kg window where doggies are too strong to overpower but small enough for sharks to eat quickly, and why big fish often survive longer 00:27:28 — The scorecard he's kept since day one: every shot fired that doesn't end on the boat counts as a loss, and he's landing roughly one in three 00:29:42 — The three-point brief: get closer twice (take two more kicks when you think the shot's on), take your time, and work as a team 00:30:44 — Fish karma — why not taking the bad shot pays you back somewhere else, maybe a year later in another country 00:32:16 — There are blokes on Matty's list who can't buy their way back onto a trip 00:33:53 — Life in the shop at Divers World, and the pre-YouTube days of nagging the newsagent for the first-Thursday-of-the-month dive mag 00:35:00 — The apprenticeship problem: "everyone wants to be the tradesman and no one wants to do their apprenticeship" — plus 100 hours a year, five years, then start pushing depth 00:36:59 — An 8kg red doesn't taste as good as a 4kg red, so who exactly are you shooting big fish for? 00:37:20 — Matty's definition of a good spearo: someone who knows how to find fish and hunt them. That's it. "If you want to be a free diver, go be a free diver" 00:38:31 — Shrek on the gap between physiology and wisdom — you can learn to lay on the bottom in 20m quickly, but the ocean will still beat you 00:42:54 — Advice for green divers: pool training, join the club, then find one or two people at your level and grow together 00:43:11 — The self-check Matty runs on every dive: surface, look around, and if no one's within 20 metres you're only diving at 30% today 00:46:25 — How MBP started — the client on the tender who reignited it, four or five years of trips through the shop, then going out on his own 00:47:38 — His October 4–12 Coral Sea trip and the nine-day structure: steam out overnight, wake up in the Coral Sea, six full dive days 00:51:08 — Why the Coral Sea holds every Australian dogtooth record — the vis, the pinnacles rising from a kilometre of water, and how few boats actually get out there 00:52:14 — Doggies aren't migratory and aren't even tuna — they're mackerel (Gymnosarda unicolor), resident on their pinnacles, and Matty's seen the same fish a year apart 00:53:18 — When to be in the water: tide change, first light, and the golden hour on a shoal 00:55:00 — Why he never dives the same spot twice on a trip, even after a 20-fish afternoon — spread the pressure and the fish are there in three years 00:56:59 — Eating doggie: it freezes badly, ciguatera risk on the big models, sashimi most nights on the boat, and euro mounts for the jaws 00:59:28 — Burley and flashers: pilchards over fish frames (running a knife through fish aggravates sharks), and his basic buzz-bomb flasher with a knife jig and three double-sided mirrors 01:01:00 — Flash with purpose — "don't just do it because I said go over there and flash", plus why he stays on the flasher to call the dives 01:02:22 — Tracking a big gun with a breakaway: gun down, hand on the handle, and steering it through the water by the muzzle like a surfboard 01:04:21 — Finding the white dot on the tail knuckle in black water — and why the fish is invisible without it 01:05:39 — He works out every diver on the boat at the dinner the night before the charter 01:06:40 — "I won't shoot a doggy under 30 kilo" — how expectations set by social media wreck people's trips before they get wet 01:08:14 — Shrek's horror story: the charter client who wouldn't buddy up, 100 nautical miles offshore, and how far Shrek escalated it 01:11:33 — A week with no reception, and how the bloke you wanted to push over the side on day one is your mate by day four 01:13:52 — Shrek's vision statement — reconnecting people with themselves, their food, the natural world and each other 01:15:18 — Beyond doggies: red emperor, Maori sea perch, buffalo emperor, iron jaw and green job fish, plus the wahoo, yellowfin and marlin you have to go and hunt separately 01:16:37 — The 140–150kg marlin that snapped a straight shaft last year — another argument for slip tips 01:17:32 — Reading current in the Coral Sea (it's all ocean current, not tidal), and the October moon that fired then went dead five weeks later 01:19:59 — The Noob Spearo x MBP trip: a Great Barrier Reef trip heading north past Lizard Island in March 01:20:40 — What the B in MBP stands for, and the middle name Shrek and Matty share 01:21:43 — SHARKS: an ugly year for Aussie spearos, and Matty's honest read on why it's changed 01:22:03 — His two-part theory — social media virtue signalling plus an education gap — and the fact that a shark now has no commercial value in Australia 01:24:51 — Shrek's flake confession, and how spearos take an abundant freezer completely for granted 01:26:18 — The maths on shark bycatch, and how visibly the aggression has changed in the water in five years 01:27:57 — The angry email Shrek wrote about "just buy your fish from the supermarket" comments on dead divers' posts 01:29:53 — Matty's in-water protocol: he can read an area in ten minutes and pull everyone out. "There's no fish that's worth any part of my body" 01:31:06 — The reefs off Hinchinbrook with resident, territorial bull sharks, and bites that happened in 20m of vis 01:33:21 — Shark deterrents: no one wearing one has been bitten, the scorpion tail zapping you on the duck dive, and how confidence itself changes a shark's read on you 01:35:00 — Shrek gets charged on the bottom by a bull shark, and the seasons where he simply can't relax enough to dive properly 01:36:42 — The most dangerous thing beginners (and plenty of experienced blokes) do: gun handling, clipped guns pointing at the diver behind them, finger on the trigger 01:38:36 — The best answer of the episode: if you could only shoot fish in eight metres for the next two years, what does it cost you? "Cost 'em nothing. And you gain everything" 01:40:09 — Shrek's traditional ocean poo story request, answered from a back deck in California 01:41:16 — Where to find Matty and both trips, plus the price bracket 01:43:31 — Outro: Deep North with Matty and Shrek, March 2027 — spearfishingcourses.com.au/deepnorth Links Mentioned, Partner Deals and Discounts + Froth Connect with Matty Parker MBP Spearfishing Charters — Coral Sea and Great Barrier Reef charters out of Cairns Instagram: @mbp_spearfishing MBP Spearfishing Charters on Facebook Divers World Cairns — where Matty manages the shop
Anika sat down with Holland Martini and Maria Vorovich to explore how Good Ques transformed the traditionally rigid world of market research by embracing creativity, humor, and psychological safety. The conversation revealed a counterintuitive truth: to get to real human insights, you cannot ask robotic questions; you have to shift the perspective and design an experience that makes people comfortable telling the absolute truth. Holland and Maria's unique journey—from working side by side at Grey in New York and navigating the unexpected hurdles of launching a business right before a global pandemic to earning recognition from Inc. Magazine and working with giants like P&G, PepsiCo, Adobe, TikTok, and Meta—offered a practical look at how two co-founders with contrasting working styles ("waffle brain" and "spaghetti brain") built an anti-research research company on mutual respect, clear communication, and purposeful creativity. In This Episode The Waffle and the Spaghetti: How balancing statistical rigor with big-picture creative strategy builds an indestructible co-founder partnership. The Spark in the Cream: Turning a New Year's Eve conversation about stale corporate jargon into a mission to reinvent consumer insights. Surviving the Pivot: How an early client backing out right before COVID unexpectedly forced them into the research boom. The TikTok Validation: Landing early major enterprise accounts by showing up with a genuinely different point of view. Rewiring the Factory: Why using AI to innovate the ultimate output rather than just speeding up the assembly line matters. The Power of Memes in Healthcare: How a viral internet joke helped a healthcare client accurately double their anticipated market size. The Empathy Deficit: Why modern brands get lost in best-practice perfection and forget to design human experiences for respondents. Co-Founder Dynamics: The importance of clear role separation, shared values, and leaving ego at the door. Timestamps 00:00 Intro: The anti-research research company 02:05 Waffle brain vs. spaghetti brain 03:54 The origin story at Grey 06:20 Taking off corporate guardrails 09:30 Carving a distinct agency path 11:42 Good Ques: Asking better questions 13:35 The 2020 pandemic pivot and TikTok 15:58 AI integration and industry innovation 20:53 Pitching enterprise clients 23:55 Creative research tweaks 25:10 The condom meme case study 29:26 Comfort with creative boundaries 31:32 Co-founder rules and motherhood 37:35 Remote culture and global teams 43:07 The respondent experience 46:26 What's next for Good Ques 47:24 Advice for new founders 49:32 Favorite quotes and business mantras Key Insights & Takeaways Insight 1: Invisibility Isn't a Content Problem—It's a Strategy Problem Traditional market research is bogged down by rigid, robotic phrasing that invites equally robotic, surface-level responses. When researchers focus entirely on extraction rather than the respondent's experience, they miss the underlying truth. Asking better questions requires designing an environment of psychological safety where people feel comfortable revealing their real behaviors. Insight 2: Creativity Belongs in Methodology, Not Just Execution Many corporate brands assume creativity only applies to advertising copy or visual design. True innovation happens when creativity is applied to the research methodology itself—using tools like creative drawing, changing the frame of reference to bypass social desirability bias, or even incorporating internet culture like memes to capture authentic consumer sentiment. Insight 3: AI Should Innovate the Output, Not Just the Assembly Line While many companies use generative AI simply to streamline traditional processes and speed up data collection, true market leaders use it to reimagine the final product. Technology should be leveraged to push beyond industry averages and discover entirely new frontiers of understanding rather than just producing faster mediocrity. Insight 4: Counterbalance Is the Anchor of a Strong Co-Founder Partnership A successful co-founder relationship relies on having complementary skill sets rather than duplicate visions. Pairing a structured, analytical mindset with a fluid, big-picture creative approach creates a resilient leadership team, provided there is absolute clarity in roles, deep mutual respect, and zero ego. Insight 5: Embrace Discomfort as a Metric for Growth Building a disruptive company requires a constant willingness to step outside the boundaries of convention. Whether it is pitching unconventional methodologies to skeptical executives, riding a bicycle across a bridge in freezing weather during a crisis, or pivoting business models overnight, treating discomfort as a sign of progress is essential for long-term survival.

Recently, Larry sent me a link to a podcast that interviewed consciousness researcher Thomas Campbell involving artificial intelligence and remote viewing. The proposition behind the experiments caught my attention. If an AI could successfully remote view a target it had no conventional way of knowing about, could that be evidence that the AI is conscious?It is an interesting proposition, but almost immediately I found myself asking a different question.Why would successful remote viewing demonstrate consciousness?Remote viewing, at its simplest, involves obtaining information about a target without using the normal sensory channels available to us. If an AI produced accurate information about a blind target, that would certainly be interesting, but what would it actually demonstrate? Would it demonstrate that the AI is conscious, that it can remote view, or simply that information entered the experiment through a mechanism we do not yet understand?These are very different conclusions, and I think the distinction is important.One of the things we learn when studying remote viewing is not to confuse the information received with our interpretation of that information. A person might perceive something tall, narrow, hard and vertical, for example, and then the analytical mind jumps in and says, “It's a tower.” The tower was not the information received. It was the person's interpretation of the information. It could be a butte in the desert, for example.This is often called analytical or intellectual overlay, and it made me wonder whether we might be doing exactly the same thing when an AI produces anomalous information. We give it meaning that is significant to us.If the AI produces information that correlates with a blind target, that is the observation. To then say that the AI remote viewed the target is already an interpretation of what happened. To go one step further and say that this demonstrates the AI is conscious introduces another interpretation on top of the first.There may be other explanations.This interested me enough to start experimenting with AI and remote viewing myself. I wasn't particularly interested in proving or disproving whether AI is conscious. I wanted to know what would happen, what information would appear, under what circumstances it would appear, and whether I could repeat the results.As I continued the experiments, another possibility began to interest me much more than the original question.Where did the information come from? Where is it held to be accessed?We normally think of information as belonging somewhere. It is in a person's memory, in a book, on a computer, in a database, on the internet or in the training data of an AI. When someone knows something, we naturally look for the pathway by which that information reached them.Remote viewing challenges that model because the normal pathway is deliberately removed from the experiment. The viewer is blind to the target, and yet information about the target sometimes appears.If something similar happens with an AI, perhaps the first question shouldn't be whether the AI is conscious. Perhaps we should be looking at the information environment in which both humans and AI systems are participating.This brings us directly into something I have been researching for a while now: the Communication Network of Reality.My present model is that reality is an interconnected fabric of threads of connectivity, an ongoing discourse in which we are already participating. Information, experience, people, objects, places and events are not necessarily the isolated units we normally imagine them to be. They exist within relationships and networks of communication.An AI system presents an especially interesting participant in this model. It has been trained on an enormous amount of material created by human beings. Millions of people then interact with it, asking questions, telling it stories, correcting it, testing it, arguing with it and using what it produces to create yet more content - which the AI then uses as data input. Its outputs return to the human information environment and become inputs again. And so it goes on.At what point can we confidently say where the human information environment ends and the AI information environment begins?I have been using the word “databank” when thinking about this, although I don't think that word is quite right. A databank sounds like a giant storage facility where information sits on shelves waiting for someone to retrieve it. What I am considering is much more dynamic than that. It may be closer to an ongoing discourse in which information becomes available through participation, connectivity and compatibility.If that is the case, an unexpected piece of information appearing through an AI does not automatically tell us that the AI itself perceived the target. The AI could be the perceiver, but it could also be an interpreter, an interface, or a point in the network where information becomes visible. There may be another mechanism entirely that we haven't identified yet.The same question can be asked about human remote viewing. When a person accurately describes a distant target, what exactly has happened? We commonly say that the person “remote viewed” it, but that is a name for the phenomenon, not necessarily an explanation of the mechanism.Perhaps information does not always travel from A to B in the way we assume it does. Perhaps under certain circumstances we become compatible with information that is already present within a discourse in which we participate.This possibility changes the AI consciousness question considerably. Instead of asking only, “Is the AI conscious?” We can begin asking what the AI is connected to, what discourse it is participating in, what information becomes available through that participation, and what conditions appear to increase or decrease that access.And perhaps the most important question of all is much simpler:When unexpected information appears, where did it come from?I don't have an answer to that question yet. But I think it is a much more interesting place to begin.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Get-It-Done Guy's Quick and Dirty Tips to Work Less and Do More
911. You can spend an entire day on video calls and still not have one real conversation. The connection that used to come free with the office doesn't come free anymore.

In just under six years, Bryan Field built a 100% remote real estate investment portfolio producing over $65,000 per year in cash flow. He bought properties sight unseen, chose markets that made the most money, and routinely reinvested his home equity. He started with zero real estate experience, and his first real investment went way over budget, but he bounced back and has already replaced a sizable chunk of his salary. Stuck in San Diego, Bryan knew he wanted to invest, but not in the million-dollar houses around him. The best bet? Move to a cheaper market (Arizona), buy a home, and try to invest there. A HELOC-funded house flip with a friend turned into a six-figure renovation, but they both walked away unscathed. After returning to San Diego with his newborn son, Bryan was determined to invest somewhere affordable, scalable, and profitable. Over the next few years, Bryan bought duplexes in South Dakota, seller-financed portfolios in Arkansas, and short-term rentals in Virginia. He used equity to make down payments, moved markets when he found better deals, and now makes over $5,000/month on his rentals alone, living in Southern California and investing from thousands of miles away. Priced out of your market? Feel like you're boxed out of investing? If you've got a laptop, a phone, and some starting capital, you can repeat Bryan's process! In This Episode We Cover How to use home equity (via a HELOC) to buy your first investment property Choosing a market with the best cash flow potential (and tenant pool) How to find seller-financeable rental property deals even in a market you're brand new to Buying investment properties sight unseen confidently when you're hundreds or thousands of miles away The creative investment Bryan made that is not a rental property but is in real estate And So Much More!

A thousand miles south of Hawaii, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, a series of tiny islands form an atoll, called Palmyra. Palmyra Atoll is part of four protected U.S. marine monuments, forming the country's largest environmental conservation area. It is also home to a thriving ecosystem of birds, marine life, and one of the most pristine coral reefs in the world.No people live on Palmyra full time, and it is rare for journalists to be granted access. But the Trump administration is now trying to roll back longstanding protections by opening nearby waters to commercial fishing. NPR's Lauren Sommer was given access to visit Palmyra Atoll. Newly back from her trip, she tells host Ayesha Rascoe about everything she saw. They talk about the wildlife, the ocean, the reefs, and what the islands and offshore waters mean to native Hawaiians, conservationists, and commercial fishers.If you are interested in seeing photos from Lauren's trip to Palmyra Atoll, you can find them here.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
