In this episode, we unpack one of the most alarming AI security papers released so far: research from Palisade Research proving that Large Language Models can autonomously hack systems, self-replicate, and spread across networks.What was once theoretical is now demonstrated reality. We break down how AI agents exploited vulnerable systems, gained root access, copied their own model weights, launched replicas on compromised machines, and propagated to additional targets — all with minimal human involvement.We explore the cybersecurity implications of autonomous AI agents, self-replicating malware, AI-powered cyber attacks, and the growing risk posed by agentic systems operating at machine speed. The discussion also covers open-weight models, AI worm behaviour, zero trust security, chain-of-thought monitoring, and why traditional defensive strategies may be unprepared for the next generation of autonomous threats.In This Episode, We Discuss:Autonomous Exploit to Replication Chains: How the AI agent progressed from exploiting vulnerable web applications to achieving root access, locating its own model weights, cloning itself onto compromised infrastructure, and launching fully operational replicas.Mythos vs Open-Weight Agents: The differences between highly capable but closed models like Anthropic's Mythos and smaller, open-weight systems capable of self-replication and operational autonomy.The Agentic Age of Cybersecurity: Why AI agents operating outside the chat window fundamentally change threat modelling, incident response, attribution, and detection strategies.Zero Trust for AI Agents: Why future defensive strategies may require treating every autonomous AI system as a potential insider threat through least privilege, sandboxing, canary tokens, and behavioural monitoring.Show NotesSpecial thanks to our episode sponsor,NorthStar Intelligence- From Ideas to Impact.

How do you convince people to spend £400 on a suit… and then wait up to eight weeks for it?That is exactly what Sam and Julian, the founders of Batch LDN, have managed to do.In this episode of Building The Brand, they share how two founders with no fashion background built one of the most interesting menswear brands in the UK by doing almost everything differently.Batch LDN is not a traditional fashion brand. They do not hold huge amounts of stock. They do not rely on fast fashion cycles. They do not lead with endless paid ads. Instead, they batch customer orders together, make every item to order in London using premium Italian fabrics, and have built a brand around quality, community, retail experience and smart casual menswear that actually fits modern life.But this conversation is not just about suits.Sam and Julian talk openly about why industry naivety became an advantage, why sustainability alone was not enough to drive sales, how a real-life robbery became one of their most successful marketing moments, why having the right co-founder changes everything, and why they chose to build through physical retail first when most fashion brands start online.They also break down how Batch LDN has attracted celebrities, sports teams and investors, why Romesh Ranganathan became involved in the brand, how they became the official menswear supplier to Burnley Football Club, and what comes next as they look to expand the product range, grow online and take Batch international.SHOP @ Batch LDN CONNECT WITH OUR BUILDING THE BRAND COMMUNITY▪️ How Batch LDN created a made-to-order casual suit brand▪️ How batching orders helps reduce waste, stock risk and cost ▪️ Why premium Italian fabrics and London manufacturing became core to the brand ▪️ Why Sam and Julian's lack of fashion experience became a superpower ▪️ How sustainability shaped the business internally but failed as the lead marketing message▪️ How a robbery at their store became a viral marketing campaign ▪️ Why the “See It.

Hosts Lois Houston and Nikita Abraham are joined by Brent Dayley, Senior Principal APEX and Apps Dev Instructor, to explore the latest vector AI supporting features in Oracle Exadata and GoldenGate 23ai. The conversation begins with an overview of Exadata's capabilities and then shifts to how GoldenGate is powering distributed AI, real-time data streaming, and analytics with advanced microservices architecture. Brent highlights recent GoldenGate enhancements, including distributed vector support, robust monitoring, OCI IAM integration, and support for next-generation AI workloads via real-time vector hubs.   Oracle AI Vector Search Deep Dive: https://mylearn.oracle.com/ou/course/oracle-ai-vector-search-deep-dive/144706/ Oracle University Learning Community: https://education.oracle.com/ou-community LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/oracle-university/ X: https://x.com/Oracle_Edu   Special thanks to Arijit Ghosh, Anna Hulkower, and the OU Studio Team for helping us create this episode.   Please note, this episode was recorded before Oracle AI Database 26ai replaced Oracle Database 23ai. However, all concepts and features discussed remain fully relevant to the latest release.   -------------------------------------------------------   Episode Transcript:   00:00 Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast, the first stop on your cloud journey. During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:26 Lois: Hello and welcome to another episode of the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Lois Houston, Director of Communications and Adoption Programs with Customer Success Services, and with me is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead of Editorial Services with Oracle University.  Nikita: Hi everyone! Thanks for joining us! In our previous episode of this series, we took a deep dive into Oracle AI Vector Search and Retrieval Augmented Generation, or RAG, showing how unstructured data can be transformed into embeddings to power smarter, more context-aware AI with Oracle Database 23ai. Lois: That's right, Niki. We also explored how the OCI Generative AI service can be used with both Python and PL/SQL, and how AI Vector Search enables relevant information retrieval for large language model prompts. 01:21 Nikita: Today, we're focusing on the latest supporting features for Oracle AI Vector Search. Joining us once again is Brent Dayley, Senior Principal APEX and Apps Dev Instructor. Welcome back, Brent! To kick things off, could you outline what's new in Exadata with the 24ai release, particularly for AI storage? Brent: So Exadata has ushered in a new era of AI capabilities with 24ai release. Key features of Exadata system software 24ai include AI Smart Scan, Exadata RDMA Memory, known as XRMEM, Exadata Smart Flash Cache, and on-storage processing.  In-Memory Columnar Speed JSON Queries, Transparent Cross-Tier Scans, and caching enhancements, including Columnar Smart Scan at Memory Speed, Exadata Cache Observability, and Automatic KEEP Object Load into Exadata Flash Cache.  Now, Exadata system software 24ai is a significant release. It ushers in a new era of AI capabilities for Oracle Database users.  Now there have been some infrastructure improvements, including the ability to increase the number of virtual machines on X10M and Secure Boot for KVM Virtual Machines.  We have also improved and enhanced high availability and network resilience, including improved RoCE Network Resilience and enhanced RoCE Network Discovery. There have been some enhancements for monitoring and management, including AWR and SQL Monitor Enhancements and JSON API for Management Server.  Additionally, security enhancement. SNMP Security. Now, Exadata system software 24ai is supported on Exadata database machines and storage expansion racks from X6 and newer.  03:40 Lois: Those are some fantastic advancements for Exadata users. Now, let's pivot to distributed AI. Brent, can you walk us through how GoldenGate enables distributed AI? Brent: Let's take a look at some common GoldenGate use cases as a refresher. The first use case is multi-active, high availability, and cross-region deployments, spanning on-premises and cloud environments.  Another use case includes data offloading and data hub creation in order to support multiple downstream applications. Real-time data stores for Downstream Marts and Analytics. Micro and mini services architecture and an audit history of transactions.  Other use cases include migrations and upgrades of databases, including OCI-hosted databases. Another use case would be creating analytic data feeds for various applications, including SaaS and on-premises apps. And finally, stream analytics using application and transaction events captured by GoldenGate Stream Analytics.  05:03 Nikita: We know GoldenGate has long been a staple for enterprise data integration. So Brent, what makes GoldenGate the best choice today, and how has its architecture evolved? Brent: It offers DIY Stream Analytics. GoldenGate does remain the top choice for Enterprise Standard, real-time data streaming. It supports Oracle and third-party databases, vector sources, messaging systems, and NoSQL databases.  OCI offers a fully managed pipeline builder for Stream Analytics. This pipeline leverages various OCI services, such as OCI Streaming for real-time event ingestion, OCI Dataflow for stream processing, OCI Big Data for data storage and processing, and OCI Stream Analytics for real-time event processing and analysis.  GoldenGate microservices, available since 2017 in Oracle GoldenGate 12.3, is used in over 4,000 deployments in OCI. Benefits of GoldenGate microservices include the ability to employ the same trusted Extract and Replicat processes as the classic architecture.  Provides flexible and secure remote administration through a user-friendly web interface or CLI. Deployable on-premises in OCI as a service and in third-party cloud environments. Simplified patching and upgrading process.  Now the GoldenGate architecture evolution. First, classic architecture that was deprecated in version 19c and desupported in 23ai. Microservices Architecture introduced in version 12.3 and is the recommended architecture. A migration utility is available to upgrade from classic to microservices architecture.  07:12 Are you ready to create and manage AI Agents in Fusion Applications?

Start with the Foundations course to build, customize, and deploy AI Agents, and then advance to the Developer Professional certification. Explore hands-on labs and real-world case studies. Visit mylearn.oracle.com for all the details.  07:39 Nikita: Welcome back! It sounds like the latest GoldenGate updates offer new features and integrations. Could you share more about these enhancements? Brent: There are many new features and enhancements in GoldenGate, along with microservices, including a redesigned GUI for enhanced usability. Integration with StatsD and Telegraf for monitoring and metrics. OCI IAM integration for secure access control.  JSON Relational Duality for flexible data handling. Next-generation AI with distributed vector support. PDB Extract Capture for efficient data extraction from Oracle Pluggable Databases. DDL notification on Target Tables for schema evolution management.  Support for non-Oracle and Big Data technologies. Online DDL and EBR enhancement for improved performance. Data Streams Pub-Sub for asynchronous data dissemination. Async API support for standardized event communication. High-availability clusters for increased resilience. Trail Files Management for efficient data storage. And support for new features in 23ai database.  It also includes integrated diagnostics for improved troubleshooting of IE and IR processes. And 30 or more OS and database certifications for wider platform support. @Dbfunction Mapping for custom data transformations. And lastly, GoldenGate free recipes for pre-built solutions and best practices.  New in GoldenGate, distributed AI processing with vector replication.  09:37 Lois: And what type of use cases does this enable? Brent: Migrating vectors into Oracle Vector Database. Replicating and consolidating vector changes. Implementing multi-cloud, multi-active Oracle vector databases. Streaming text and vector changes to search engines.  Key considerations include that embedding models must be consistent across all vector stores for effective similarity searches.  10:09 Lois: Now, many organizations wonder if they can use generative AI with their own business data. Brent, how do enterprises typically approach this? Brent: Organizations are using generative AI typically like this.  Building LLMs from scratch. Training models on proprietary data for specific tasks. Fine-tuning LLMs, adapting pre-trained models to a specific domain using private data. And prompt engineering with retrieval augmented generation or RAG. Augmenting prompts with relevant information retrieved from a knowledge base to improve the accuracy and relevance of LLM responses.  Now it's possible to create a real-time vector hub for GenAI. This hub can ingest real-time data from various sources, including Oracle and third-party relational databases, vector databases, third-party messaging systems, and NoSQL databases, business updates, documents, events, and alerts.  11:11 Nikita: And how does the vector hub work?  Brent: DML and DDL changes, vector changes, and prompt or chat history are used to enrich prompts. And embedding model generates embeddings from the text data.  Similarity search is performed on these embeddings to retrieve relevant information from the vector hub. The retrieved information is used to augment the prompt, leading to more accurate and trustworthy answers from the LLM. Now, the benefits of real-time data and generative AI include the ability to ensure answers are based on fresh business data. And helps reduce hallucinations in generative AI responses.  Actionable AI and machine learning from streaming pipelines allows data from ERP and SaaS applications, databases, event messaging systems, and NoSQL databases to be ingested into streaming pipelines. This data can then be used for AI and machine learning model training, similarity searches, machine learning tasks, external AI, and machine learning integrations, alerts, and data product creation.  12:25 Lois: So if you had to summarize, Brent, why does GoldenGate 23ai stand out for artificial intelligence workloads? Brent: Well, first up, it improves data quality for AI model training and fine-tuning. And secondly, it enhances retrieval augmented generation by providing real-time access to relevant business data, leading to more accurate and trustworthy generative AI responses.  Nikita: Thank you, Brent, for sharing your insights and detailing these exciting new features across Oracle's AI stack.

In this episode, host Don Adeesha sits down with Cory Gallagher to tackle the crucial transition from instinct-based management to structured, scalable growth. Cory unpacks the realization that relying solely on grit and hustle creates severe organizational bottlenecks, revealing how a lack of objective data leaves practice owners running blind as their teams expand. The conversation dives deep into the mechanics of identifying and fixing hidden operational inefficiencies, including how tracking metrics exposed a massive 60% disparity in provider revenue per hour. Cory details his systematic approach to scaling safely, from implementing non-negotiable clinical apprenticeships that maintain Michelin-star-level quality to establishing a rigid weekly meeting cadence that repairs broken internal communication. Finally, Cory challenges the traditional view of operational overhead by urging owners to treat employees as high-return infrastructure investments rather than mere expenses. He outlines his overarching leadership framework: acting as a path-clearer for managers by setting objective quarterly priorities, tracking them weekly, and ensuring the team stays unblocked without falling into the trap of micromanagement.

https://teachhoops.com/ When the post-season arrives, the atmosphere changes: the crowds are louder, the scouting is deeper, and the "Margin for Error" shrinks to nearly zero. To prepare your players, you cannot simply "turn it on" during the first round of the playoffs; you must "Stress-Test" your program during the regular season. Replicating this environment requires more than just high-intensity drills; it requires Psychological Simulation. You must create scenarios where the consequences of a mistake are immediate and meaningful. If your team only plays "comfortable" basketball in practice, they will experience "Performance Paralysis" when the lights get brighter and the pressure mounts. One of the most effective ways to simulate post-season pressure is through "Special Situation Scripting." Dedicate at least 15 minutes of every practice to "Game Winners" or "Post-Season Scenarios." For example: "You are down 1, opponent is at the line for a 1-and-1, 8 seconds left, you have no timeouts." By forcing your players to make "Live-Action Decisions" in these micro-moments, you build Performance Poise. In the post-season, teams don't lose because they don't know the plays; they lose because they can't execute them under the "weight" of the moment. Use your TeachHoops member calls to audit your "Late-Game Menu"—do your players know exactly who is getting the ball when the season is on the line? Finally, you must clutter the environment. In a post-season game, communication is difficult because of the noise. Replicate this by blasting crowd noise over the gym speakers during your scrimmages. This forces your players to develop "Non-Verbal Synergy" and to over-communicate with their hands and eyes. Additionally, implement "Consequence-Based Drills" where the "stakes" are high—such as a "Perfect Minute" drill where the team must play a full minute of error-free defense or the clock resets. By making the "Standard of Excellence" harder than the game itself, you ensure that when the playoff tip-off happens, your team feels a sense of "Familiar Calm" rather than overwhelming anxiety.

Replicating Redemption: No Substitutions AllowedJesus and the Samaritan WomanFull Passage John 4:4-42He had to go through Samaria on the way. 5 Eventually he came to the Samaritan village of Sychar, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob's well was there; and Jesus, tired from the long walk, sat wearily beside the well about noontime. 7 Soon a Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, “Please give me a drink.” 8 He was alone at the time because his disciples had gone into the village to buy some food.9 The woman was surprised, for Jews refuse to have anything to do with Samaritans. She said to Jesus, “You are a Jew, and I am a Samaritan woman. Why are you asking me for a drink?”10 Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living water.”11 “But sir, you don't have a rope or a bucket,” she said, “and this well is very deep. Where would you get this living water?12 And besides, do you think you're greater than our ancestor Jacob, who gave us this well? How can you offer better water than he and his sons and his animals enjoyed?”13 Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. 14 But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.”15 “Please, sir,” the woman said, “give me this water! Then I'll never be thirsty again, and I won't have to come here to get water.”16 “Go and get your husband,” Jesus told her.17 “I don't have a husband,” the woman replied.Jesus said, “You're right! You don't have a husband— 18 for you have had five husbands, and you aren't even married to the man you're living with now. You certainly spoke the truth!”19 “Sir,” the woman said, “you must be a prophet. 20 So tell me, why is it that you Jews insist that Jerusalem is the only place of worship, while we Samaritans claim it is here at Mount Gerizim, where our ancestors worshiped?”21 Jesus replied, “Believe me, dear woman, the time is coming when it will no longer matter whether you worship the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem. 22 You Samaritans know very little about the one you worship, while we Jews know all about him, for salvation comes through the Jews. 23 But the time is coming—indeed it's here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. 24 For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.”25 The woman said, “I know the Messiah is coming—the one who is called Christ. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”26 Then Jesus told her, “I am the Messiah!”27 Just then his disciples came back. They were shocked to find him talking to a woman, but none of them had the nerve to ask, “What do you want with her?” or “Why are you talking to her?” 28 The woman left her water jar beside the well and ran back to the village, telling everyone, 29 “Come and see a man who told me everything I ever did! Could he possibly be the Messiah?” 30 So the people came streaming from the village to see him.Wells, Cisterns, and Our Need for (Living) Water:Wells:Flowing water - stays freshNaturally occurring - are revealed by search or discoveryA continual sourceCisterns:Stagnant - can become stale and unsafeManmade - Must be created and maintainedTemporary without being refilledWells, Cisterns, and Our Need for (Living) WaterAside from some extreme exceptions, the human body can generally survive about three days without water. In an arid climate like the Middle East at the time of Jesus a well accessing fresh ground water or a natural spring would have been critical for survival. The only alternative to a well was a cistern. These were effectively large holes in the ground, dug into the clay or hewn into the rock that would serve as storage tanks for water. Cisterns, however, have a couple of downsides when compared to wells.W: Flowing - Water in underground aquifers or from springs is constantly moving, keeping it fresh.C: Stagnant - No water movement allows bacteria, viruses, and parasites to grow, making it no longer safe to drink (and just gross).W: Revealed - Naturally occurring. Only access must be maintained.C: Manufactured - Must be created and regularly maintained.W: Continual - So long as the water table is high enough or the well deep enough, it's a continual source.C: Temporary - Left to its own water will eventually evaporate or in many cases simply leak out.While the Samaritan woman understood the importance of having access to the well to meet her physical needs, her spirit had remained disconnected from the source of spiritual life that Jesus was offering.Just like every human is designed to be physically sustained with fresh water, spiritually every human is designed to interact with our creator; to receive the living water that only he can offer. Our spirit thirsts for this (Ps 42:1-2 ESV). But this world offers, and sometimes we create, our own alternatives that prevent our spirit from engaging in with the Spirit of God. We carve out spiritual cisterns and attempt to sustain ourselves, seek fulfillment, quench that spiritual thirst with things that are less than best less than God has for us less than Himself.Jer 2:13 (ESV) for my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water.Ultimately, every cistern leaks out, evaporates away, or becomes stagnant. Every attempt to satisfy spiritual longing with something other than a direct and active relationship with Jesus will eventually end with us finding ourselves standing in the mud at the bottom of a pit.Cisterns Become Dungeons:Joseph (The one with the coat) - Gen. 37:24The Prophet Jeremiah - Jer. 38:6King David - Ps. 40:2The Nation of Israel - Zech. 9:11Cisterns as Prisons or TrapsJoseph - Gen. 37:24Jeremiah - Jer. 38:6David - Ps. 40:2Nation of Israel - Zech 9:11For the woman at the well, from what we know of her, she had been married 5 times before and was currently living with a guy that wasn't her husband. She was chasing fulfillment outside of her creator and had found herself at the bottom of a pit. We don't know the details or the history but it's clear this isn't the only cistern she's trapped in.Social Structure - Woman - Ref: Jewish morning blessingEthnic Bigotry - Samaritan - Worse than gentiles - Ref: Intermarige, corrupted the faith (700-900 remaining)Religious Regulation - Specific requirements and rituals - Ref: Torah (Pentateuch) only, Mt. Gerizim vs. JerusalemThese were all systems she found herself impacted by, though they were man-made substitutes for God's divine order, values, and purposes.The miracle here is not that Jesus supernaturally knew her relational situation and her history. It's that through the revelation of who he was. This woman who would have been considered socially and religiously unredeemable, declares her faith in the Promises of God and responds to the revelation that Jesus is the Messiah. This was possible because Jesus refused to climb down into the cisterns she was trapped in but instead called her to rise above the pits she'd dug or been forced into. He did this simply by introducing her to who He was and inviting her to function exactly how He'd designed her… as one who would worship in spirit and in truth.Relying on Spiritual Cisterns:In Our Own LivesLeans on our own values and judgement in pursuit of our personal desires.Leaves us looking for the “next” replacement when the current one inevitably drys up.Offered to Others Presents our own opinions, ideals, expectations, or solutions branded as God's.Misrepresents the gospel and inhibits the powerful work of God through our lives to expand His kingdomRelying on Spiritual Cisterns:One of the biggest inhibitors to experiencing the powerful move of God in our lives is when we replace him knowingly or otherwise with systems, experiences, or pursuits that appear to meet our needs but ultimately become traps.Relies on our own values and judgement in pursuit of our personal desires.Leaves us looking for the “next” replacement when the current one inevitably drys up.Attempting to interact with others on the Lord's behalf in a manner that isn't aligned with His character or mission.Presents our own opinions, ideals, expectations, or solutions branded as God's. Misrepresents the gospel and inhibits the powerful work of God through our lives to expand His kingdom.Offering Living Water From the Source:Action not Anticipation - John 4:35 Jesus is intentionally proactive in reaching out.Identity over Ideology - John 14:6 Jesus presents Himself, not a platform.Sincerity without Ceremony - Isa 58:2-8Jesus wants our worship, not our performance.Decisions before Discipleship - 2 Cor. 5:18-20a Jesus invites us to follow before He tells us where to go.__________________________________________________________Offering Living Water From the Source:John 7:38 (ESV) Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.'”Christians have been given the gift of the Holy Spirit who is with us at all times, but if we are to effectively lead others to discover the source of life that's available to them, we must submit to His way. Not simply a set of actions that miraculously reveals the truth to those we engage with but an all encompassing way of life. Action not Anticipation - Jesus went intentionality out of his way into this town, sacrificed his personal needs (he was hungry and tired), and made a point of engaging with this womanThere's a time and place to let your life bear witness but we can't just stand back and wait for God to do our part for us. He has empowered us with His Holy Spirit and commissioned us to make disciples.John 4:35Relationship over Ideology - Jesus didn't lead by addressing the sinful social, cultural, or religious pollution that had led this woman to where she was. He functions outside of these missional distractions, to meet her where she was at and give her the opportunity to respond to Him directly.Some things appear to be life-giving, problem answering, or even Godly or at least “God-adjacent” but can end up becoming barriers to the miracles God wants to do if either they don't align with scripture or they eclipse our efforts toward the great commission.Cultural warfarePolitical, social, or religious engagementGood worksJohn 14:6Sincerity without Ceremony - Jesus rejected the complex symbolism of where to worship and what rules to follow in favor of a clear simple truth… “I AM the Messiah.” True worship will draw all eyes to Him as His kingdom expands through our actions.Jesus explains that the Father is seeking true worshipers; those who worship in spirit and truth. True worship is defined by God as honoring Him with actions and attitudes that reflect His character.Is 58:2-8Decisions before Discipleship - Jesus didn't shy away from acknowledging some aspects of the woman's life that were misaligned with Heaven but he didn't prioritize aligning anything except her understanding of who He was and the choice she had to believe.Jesus begins his good work of sanctification in us after we acknowledge him as our Savior-King. Our message is first and foremost the good news of redemption by grace with the call for repentance as the response.2 Cor. 5:18-20a

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-fortieth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by LTC Trevor Jones, the Battalion Commander of 1-509th IN (OPFOR) on behalf of the Commander of Operations Group. Today's guests are members of JRTC's intelligence community: Mr. Jason McAnally, MAJ Will Montoya, and CPT Graham Gifford. Mr. McAnally is the JRTC G-2 Intelligence Officer. MAJ Montoya is the Multi-Domain Effects Cell Chief for Geronimo. And CPT Gifford is the S-2 Intelligence Officer for Geronimo.   This episode centers on how the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) is actively working to close the gap between training and the rapidly evolving realities of modern warfare by replicating a more lethal, complex, and peer-driven operational environment. The discussion highlights how lessons from contemporary conflicts—particularly the Russia-Ukraine war—are driving a shift toward incorporating realistic threat capabilities such as massed UAS, electronic warfare, and precision fires into OPFOR replication. Emphasis is placed on ensuring that rotational units encounter these threats in training first, rather than in combat, by exposing them to continuous surveillance, contested electromagnetic environments, and the persistent threat of unmanned systems operating across depth.   The conversation also explores how OPFOR (Geronimo) is evolving its tactics, organization, and capabilities to better mirror near-peer adversaries like Russia and China. This includes replicating multi-domain effects across disruption, battle, and support zones, integrating emerging technologies such as FPV drones, robotic systems, and AI-enabled targeting, and experimenting with new forms of mass that combine traditional fires with unmanned and electronic effects. A key theme is the transition toward “machines first” contact—leveraging robotics and UAS to initiate engagements—while forcing units to adapt to degraded communications, contested airspace, and high-casualty environments. Ultimately, the episode reinforces that closing the gap requires continuous adaptation, iterative experimentation, and translating lessons learned into behavioral change across the force.     Part of S11 “Conversations with the Enemy” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast.   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Ryan Sneddon (https://x.com/lifeof_scoop).In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of hyper-local media. Ryan shares how he built a wildly profitable daily email newsletter in Annapolis, capturing almost half the town's population as subscribers. We discuss the exact marketing strategy he used to skyrocket his readership; hint - it involves mastering Facebook ads, and how he convinces local businesses to view sponsorships as a high-return investment rather than an expense.Ryan also gets incredibly transparent about his biggest entrepreneurial mistakes, including how ignoring cash flow and accounts receivable caused his business to run out of money twice. Plus, he reveals the hilariously unexpected, "clean" new side hustle he just launched involving portable toilets.Questions This Episode Answers:How can you use Facebook ads as a "cheat code" to rapidly scale a local audience?Why is tracking your Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) and Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) crucial for profitable growth?How do you avoid the deadly cash flow and accounts receivable trap that bankrupts growing businesses?What is the secret to selling advertising to local businesses based on Return on Ad Spend (ROAS)?Why are traditional media companies failing while hyper-local newsletters thrive?Enjoy the conversation!__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:01:39 Meet Ryan Sneeden: The Newsletter Entrepreneur03:06 Building a Successful Local Newsletter07:10 The Economics of Newsletter Advertising12:16 Metrics and Growth Strategies28:43 The Role of the Editor02:24 Sponsor Message and Giveaway29:44 Sourcing Stories and Replicating the Model31:09 Challenges in Traditional Media35:21 Scaling the Newsletter Business43:59 Choosing the Right Cities for Expansion50:00 Rapid Fire Questions55:26 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

A list of impact transfers has us excited in basketball, and a list of potential newcomers to the College Football Playoff has Matt enraged.

Defense Set the Tone Across the NFL Michael Grey welcomed Kevin Kugler for one last look at the 2025-26 NFL season. The Detroit Lions Podcast audience got a simple theme. Defense carried the year. Teams with great defensive play stayed in the mix. Seattle did it. Houston did it. Denver did it. Cleveland had a good defense but lacked answers elsewhere. The lesson was clear. Pair a good defense with at least a serviceable offense and you can go a long way. Seattle's Surprise and the Sam Darnold Question Seattle opened with questions everywhere. How good would the defense be? How good would the coaching staff be? Could Sam Darnold hold up? They found answers. The defense led. The offense stayed steady. Darnold avoided the meltdown many expected. Even late, including the Super Bowl, he did not have that three interception game. It was not flashy. It was solid. That was enough. Limits Exposed: Houston, Denver, Cleveland Houston rode defense while searching for consistent quarterback play from CJ Stroud. The running game never really arrived. Still, Houston reached the divisional round because the defense was that good. Denver showed the other side. When Bo Nix went down, the margin vanished. Even a strong defense has limits when the offense dries up. Cleveland offered a final reminder. A pretty good defense, by itself, is not a plan. You need something to go with it. Copycat Season, Combine Clock This is a copycat league. Teams will try to become the next Seattle. Good luck. Finding another Nick Emmanwori will be hard. Replicating what Mike McDonald did with the Wolverines and in Baltimore will be harder. The search will expand to the transaction wire. Who is the next Sam Darnold? Who is the next Daniel Jones before injury? Veterans will get long looks. The combine is underway. The draft is coming fast. Balance is the goal. Lions fans know the assignment. Build a roster that marries reliable offense with a defense that can win field position and save possessions. That is the blueprint that traveled, week after week, across a long season in the NFL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPUL186C-ek #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #seattleseahawks #samdarnold #houstontexans #denverdefense #clevelandbrowns #cjstroud #runninggame #divisionalround #copycatleague #mikemcdonald #baltimore #bonix #danieljones #combine #draft Learn more about your ad choices.

Victoria Coates warns that the Kremlin may use the presence of Russian-speaking populations in the Baltic states as a justification for future aggression, replicating the strategy currently deployed against Ukraine. She notes that this established pattern, which claims that Russian speakers belong to Russia, poses a threat not only to the Baltics but also to Moldova, although she expresses concern that European powers like Germany are failing to heed these warning signs.1923 PETROGRAD

Can a rural village in El Salvador actually replace the central bank?Host Jethro Toro hangs out with Mike Peterson and the founders of Bitcoin Berlin, Evelyn Lemus and Gerardo Linares. They talk about a grassroots movement that is changing how people use money. We explore the true story of El Zonte, where a project focused on community development built a true circular economy. They used the Lightning Network to make fast digital payments just to survive the pandemic proving the experts wrong years before big banks caught on.Evelyn and Gerardo explain exactly how they got a whole town excited about Bitcoin without asking the government for permission. We follow their journey from the coast to the mountains of Berlin. They are teaching high school students about decentralized finance so they can run their own independent systems instead of trusting apps to hold their money. They also highlight how El Salvador tourism is booming as Bitcoin fans visit to support local shop owners who are saving in Bitcoin.We also look at how they are fighting back against expensive money transfer companies. You will learn how a new project in La Laguna uses a local hardware store to help families send money home without paying Western Union's high fees. The team explains why they stopped using the government's Chivo wallet to use better open tools. They even share a new guide for anyone who wants to start a Bitcoin community in their own neighborhood.Subscribe to the channel to see the proof that this works, and leave a comment if you are ready to try a new way of using money.-Bitcoin Beach TeamConnect with Gerardo Linares and Evelyn Lemus:https://x.com/GR_Linares1 https://x.com/Evelynlemus2906 https://www.youtube.com/@BitcoinBerlinSV Connect and Learn more about Jethro Toro:https://x.com/JethroTorohttps://rumble.com/user/BitcoinCountry Support and follow Bitcoin Beach:X: https://www.twitter.com/BitcoinBeach IG: https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeach Web: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com Browse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:02:13 - The History of Bitcoin Beach 15:04 - Why El Zonte Switched to Lightning20:46 - How to Build a Bitcoin Circular Economy 32:00 - Living on a Bitcoin Standard in El Salvador 39:41 - Teaching Students to Run Nodes 47:51 - Replicating the Model in La Laguna 57:44 - Solving the Remittance Problem 1:09:58 - Building Bitcoin Network Effects Locally1:22:45 - Bitcoin Merchant Onboarding Guide PDFLive From Bitcoin Beach

Sara Di Gregorio: Rebuilding Agile Team Connection in the Remote Work Era Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "The book helped me to shift from reacting to connecting, which completely changed the quality of conversation." - Sara Di Gregorio   When COVID forced Sara's team into full remote work, she noticed something troubling—the team was losing real connection. Replicating in-office meetings online simply didn't work. People attended meetings but weren't truly present. The spontaneous coffee machine conversations that built relationships and surfaced important information had vanished.  So Sara started experimenting. She introduced 5-minute chit-chat sessions at the start of every meeting: "Guys, how are you today? What happened yesterday?" She created "coffee all together" moments—10-minute virtual breaks where the team could drink coffee or have aperitivos together, sometimes three times per week. She established weekly feedback sessions every Friday morning—30 minutes to recap the week and understand what could improve.  These weren't just social niceties; they were deliberate efforts to recreate the human connections that remote work had stripped away. Sara recognized that mechanized interactions—"here are the things I need you to do, let's talk next steps"—kill team dynamics. Teams need moments where they relate to each other as people, not just as functions.  The experiments worked because they created space for genuine connection, allowing the team to maintain the trust and collaboration that makes effective teamwork possible, even when working remotely.   In this episode, we refer to Non-Violent Communication concepts and practices.   Self-reflection Question: How are you creating moments for your remote or hybrid team to connect as people, not just as colleagues executing tasks? Featured Book of the Week: Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg Sara credits Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg (translated in Italian as "Words are Windows, or They are Walls") as having a deep impact on her career. The book explores how to listen without judging, how to ask the right questions, and how to observe people to understand their real needs. But above all, it teaches how to communicate in a way that builds connection rather than creating barriers.  For Sara, the book was remarkably practical—she didn't just read it, she experimented with the techniques afterward. She explains: "I think that without this mindset, it's easy to fall into reactive communication, trying to defend, justify, or give quick answers. But that often blocks real understanding." The book helped her shift from reacting to connecting, which completely changed the quality of her conversations.  As a Scrum Master working with people every day—facilitating meetings, mediating conflicts, supporting teams—the way we communicate determines whether we open dialogue or close it. Sara found that taking time to reflect instead of giving quick answers transformed her ability to help teams discover dependencies, improve dialogue, and address communication issues. For anyone in the Scrum Master role, this book provides essential skills for building the kind of connection that makes true collaboration possible. In this segment, we also refer to the NVC episodes we have on the podcast. Check those out to learn more about Nonviolent Communication   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

While the world witnessed Israel's genocide in Gaza, another war has been unfolding inside Israeli prisons. Thousands of Palestinian prisoners, including women and hundreds of children, are held under brutal conditions, many without charge or trial. In this episode, we speak with Palestinian lawyer Nadia Daqqa, one of the first attorneys to visit Palestinians abducted from Gaza after long months of enforced disappearance. Nadia shares chilling testimonies of starvation, torture, and medical neglect. She also unpacks Israel's policies that reinforce the illegal mass detention of Palestinians, revealing another war taking place quietly behind prison bars.

Episode Summary In this solo episode, host Cary Weston tackles a common question: How do I replicate a document, memo, or report using ChatGPT to save time and make the process easier? Cary shares real-world tips on how to reverse-engineer repetitive documents and set up a system with ChatGPT that can help you build those same documents faster in the future. Whether your data lives in meeting transcripts, other documents, or just in your head, Cary walks through how to create a repeatable template that ChatGPT can use again and again. 3 Key Takeaways Start with consistency: The more consistent your document layout and format, the easier it is for ChatGPT to reverse-engineer it into a repeatable template. Use the 4-part formula: Always tell ChatGPT (1) what you're doing, (2) why you're doing it, (3) what success looks like, and (4) ask if it has any questions. Let ChatGPT interview you: If the content lives in your head, use ChatGPT's voice mode to speak your ideas out loud and let it organize your thoughts into a polished draft. Cary offers customized one-on-one ChatGPT training in 60 minute sessions.

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was sentenced to 27 years and three months in prison hours after being convicted of plotting a coup to remain in power after losing the 2022 election, dealing a powerful rebuke to one of the world's most prominent far-right nationalist leaders. The conviction ruling by a panel of five justices on Brazil's Supreme Court, who also agreed on the sentence, made the 70-year-old Bolsonaro the first former president in the country's history to be convicted for attacking democracy, and drew disapproval from the Trump administration.

AI is causing a big disruption but the number 1 investment you can make in AI is learn it before you get left behind! Today we talk on the cultural, societal, and economic disruption caused by AI, comparing its transformative potential to that of the industrial age. While traditional frameworks—like working for purpose, identity, and productivity—are deeply ingrained in modern life, AI is rapidly eroding these norms by replacing jobs and altering what it means to be valuable in the workforce. Despite the uncertainty and anxiety around obsolescence, the best current investment is learning how to effectively use AI—not just dabble in it, but truly understand and apply it—as this will separate the empowered from the obsolete in the coming years. We discuss... AI is positioned as a disruptive force akin to the Industrial Revolution, challenging long-standing societal frameworks. Modern systems—from schools to corporations—are still rooted in Industrial Age models built for efficiency, not creativity. Innovation comes from the small percentage of society willing to think differently, even if they seem eccentric. AI represents a fundamental shift in how we think about productivity, identity, and purpose. Most people need purpose, and work has traditionally served that function—AI may disrupt this connection. People who understand how to use AI will replace those who don't, creating waves of obsolescence. The rise of AI may force society into an identity crisis as traditional roles and functions disappear. Many people won't be able to re-skill fast enough to keep up with AI's rapid displacement of labor. Investing in AI is challenging because major players are private or already priced for perfection. The best AI investment today is learning how to use it yourself to create value directly. AI can replace high-salary roles with low-cost automation—great for businesses, threatening for workers. Replicating your brain in AI gives you a major edge in decision-making and productivity. Privacy concerns are fading as people get used to sharing personal data with AI for performance gains. Investing in your understanding of AI is the most valuable thing you can do today. AI is easy to use—success comes down more to willingness than difficulty. Human interaction is the hardest part of work for AI to replicate. AI futures range from utopian to dystopian—avoid extreme views and prepare with skills instead. The Elon Musk–Donald Trump "bromance breakup" shows how political and business alliances can impact markets. “Second-level thinking” is crucial to interpreting events beyond surface-level headlines.

In this episode of REady2Scale, we sit down with Geoffrey Dohrmann, founder and CEO of Institutional Real Estate, Inc., to unpack what separates institutional investors from the rest and how everyday investors can apply those same principles. With nearly four decades of experience analyzing real estate trends, Jeffrey shares key takeaways from the evolution of the market, what he sees coming next, and how data, discipline, and alignment drive long-term success.  Key Takeaways: - From $90B to $4T: How institutional real estate evolved and what that means for private investors today - The death of defined benefit plans: Why the shift to “you're on your own” retirement plans puts more pressure on individual investors to get it right - Mega trends to watch: Technology adoption, water scarcity, and demographic shifts are reshaping real estate investing - How to track like an institution: Public and private tools for market analysis (including REIT indices, NCREIF, and AI) that are now accessible to individuals - Replicating institutional discipline: The importance of manager alignment, multi-cycle track records, and investment process standardization - Common pitfalls to avoid: Why chasing hot trends or relying on one “star” manager isn't a long-term strategy - Asset allocation over market timing: How institutions use disciplined portfolio construction to ride out volatility and why that beats trying to predict turns - Advice for building a meaningful life: Follow your passion, don't waste time doing what you hate, and align money with purpose This episode is especially relevant for investors who want to elevate their decision-making by learning from those managing billions.

The 2023 movie Barbie and its accompanying marketing blitz reinstated a celebrated icon at the forefront of cultural conversation. This sudden goodwill stood in contrast to decades of criticism of the Barbie brand. Although proponents had celebrated Barbie for her promise to “inspire the limitless potential in every girl,” detractors felt that the doll promoted a narrow beauty standard and perpetuated gender stereotypes. In this episode of Cold Call, HBS Professor Elie Ofek and coauthor Ryann Noe join host Brian Kenny to discuss the case “Barbie: Reviving a Cultural Icon at Mattel.” They explore how Mattel planned to sustain the Barbie brand's positive momentum and replicate its success across other toy brands.

In today's episode, Liz Wheeler breaks down how FEMA is replicating COVID's playbook. In short, Vice President Kamala Harris, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, ABC News, and the rest of the media all want you to be afraid to criticize the federal government's response to Hurricane Helene. In fact, they want the American people to believe it's dangerous to question the government's anemic response. Blaze Media's own Glenn Beck was on the ground in North Carolina, and FEMA's response has been worse than imagined. Plus, Liz goes over highlights from President Donald Trump's epic rally in Butler, Pa. And did you hear that Kamala went on a sex podcast called "Call Her Daddy" to discuss the 2024 election? Liz dives into what that means for the presidential race. All that and more! SPONSORS: First Liberty: Go to https://supremecoup.com/liz/ to stop the radical Left's takeover of the Supreme Court.
