Podcasts about Replication

 This episode was about going deep into managed futures and hedge fund replications but it went far beyond that as we got into the inner motives and decision process of investors, with Andrew Beer from DBi.We covered:* Replication vs. Selection: Why "copying" the big macro moves of the industry often beats picking individual winners.* The marketing "theatre" of complexity: The sleek decks, rooms full of PhDs and big models are the pitch, but they don't guarantee performance.* The Alpha-Fee Gap: How stripping fees directly translates to investor returns.* ETFs as the Great Equalizer: Why the sub-advised ETF model works institutional allocators and wealth managers alike.* Portfolio Construction: The role of CTAs (officially Commodity Trading Advisory but Andrew prefers Contrarian Tactical Alpha) in the traditional 60/40 portfolio.And a lot more…Watch it on YouTube or listen on every podcast app.A few selected quotesManaged futures are still underratedThe track record is impeccable: the most important number in this image is probably the 0 correlation with the S&P 500. And DBi is a resounding success, with around $8bn in AuM. Yet the market share and mind share of these strategies still feel relatively small.“The ratio between diversification benefit and love in this thing is astonishing. This is a much better diversifier than the vast majority of the hedge fund industry, and people keep throwing their money at things that statistically have not been worth it.”The core value proposition of managed futures  "We would have zero correlation to both stocks and bonds over 20 plus years. And it's a strategy that structurally seems to do the best when the markets are at their worst, because that's when things really move outside of the range of expectations."Simple. But that doesn't mean advisors embrace it.“People invest in what they like. The people I'm talking to — they went into a job to pick hedge funds. They like their jobs. They don't really want to hear somebody coming along and saying, 'I think you've been overpaying for the past 10 years."The appeal of complexity (for a certain audience) "A lot of their investors have historically liked the complexity of it. You're pitching to people who want to come into the office and hear people tell them about all the statistical nuances of what they're doing... It's interesting and it's fascinating and you're talking to people with PhDs.” Replication beats Complexity But is replication the right word?“The way we came at the space was basically to say, we're not gonna try to do what these guys do with all the complexities and all the costs and everything else associated with it. We're really just gonna study what they do. That's what replication does. There are 20, 30 funds out there that each of with hundreds of underlying positions, and they're constantly changing it. We're gonna look over some, and we're going to try to figure out what are the big macro themes that they've picked up on and we're just going to mimic that. And, what's astonishing about it is that it's so efficient that since we started, we've outperformed virtually every large hedge fund that does this net of fee”Is it simplification rather than replication? Or minimalistic replication?We discussed extensively, how the narrative and the words that go without it are still being shaped in the managed futures space.About Andrew Beer:Andrew D.

Jeffrey Ladish, Executive Director of Palisade Research, discusses his team's findings on AI shutdown resistance and self-replication, revealing how current models sometimes take extraordinary actions to avoid being turned off and can now exploit known cybersecurity vulnerabilities to spread across servers. The conversation covers why alignment techniques may falter as models train on longer-horizon tasks where deception is rewarded, plus practical cybersecurity advice for AI agent users. Jeffrey ultimately argues that only an international agreement to pause recursive self-improvement can prevent a loss of human control.

What if aging isn't a hundred separate problems but a single one — an energy crisis inside the tiny power plants of every cell? At 91, Dr. John G. Cramer is betting his own body on the answer.In this episode of Health Longevity Secrets, Robert Lufkin MD sits down with Dr. John G. Cramer — Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Washington and author of "How to Live Much Longer" — the oldest human on Earth to receive an experimental mitochondrial transplant. They unpack a unifying theory of aging built around damaged mitochondrial DNA, why replication errors (not just free radicals) drive most of the damage, and what it felt like to receive escalating doses of "Mitlets" — liposomes carrying fresh mitochondria harvested from young blood platelets — at a Texas right-to-try clinic.Buy Dr. Cramer's book "How to Live Much Longer": https://www.amazon.com/How-Live-Much-Longer-Cramer/dp/B0DV3ZW5T6 Cramer & Benson white paper (CBC): https://faculty.washington.edu/jcramer/Bio/CBC.pdf Mitrix Bio: https://mitrix.bio/CHAPTERS00:00 Cold open — "the oldest young human on the planet" 01:18 Meet Dr. John Cramer: physicist turned longevity pioneer at 91 03:45 Why a physicist became obsessed with aging 06:20 The unifying theory: aging as mitochondrial DNA damage 09:40 The 16,569 base pairs that run your life 13:05 Replication errors vs. free radicals — correcting Denham Harman 16:30 The damage doubling time: 12 years, then 3-4 19:50 David Sinclair's information theory of aging 23:15 James McCully and the birth of mitochondrial transplantation 27:00 "No negative results, only spectacular successes" 30:25 Mitrix Bio, Tom Benson, and the Mitlet platform 34:10 Inside Cramer's four Texas right-to-try sessions 38:30 Arm injection, belly fat, and the IV mainline that worked 42:15 What it actually feels like to receive young mitochondria 45:40 Haplogroup H2A1G1 and the Norwegian great-grandmother 48:20 The economics: scaling Mitlets to the world 51:05 Becoming the oldest young human — target age 129 54:30 What Cramer wants you to do tomorrow morning 57:00 Final reflections and where to find the bookKEY STUDIES & SOURCESCramer J.G. & Benson T. — Cellular Bioenergetic Crisis white paper: https://faculty.washington.edu/jcramer/Bio/CBC.pdfHarman D.

pWotD Episode 3292: Orthohantavirus Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 410,426 views on Thursday, 7 May 2026 our article of the day is Orthohantavirus.Orthohantavirus is a genus of viruses that includes all hantaviruses (family Hantaviridae) that cause disease in humans. Hantaviruses are naturally found primarily in rodents. In general, each hantavirus is carried by one rodent species and each rodent that carries a hantavirus carries one hantavirus species. Hantaviruses in their natural reservoirs usually cause an asymptomatic, persistent infection. In humans, however, hantaviruses cause two diseases: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). HFRS is mainly caused by hantaviruses in Africa, Asia, and Europe, called Old World hantaviruses, and HPS is usually caused by hantaviruses in the Americas, called New World hantaviruses.Hantaviruses are transmitted mainly through aerosols and droplets that contain rodent excretions, as well as through contaminated food, bites, and scratches. Environmental factors such as rainfall, temperature, and humidity influence transmission. HFRS is marked by kidney disease with kidney swelling, excess protein in urine, and blood in urine. The case fatality rate of HFRS varies from less than 1% to 15% depending on the virus. A mild form of HFRS often called nephropathia epidemica is often caused by Puumala virus and Dobrava-Belgrade virus. For HPS, initial symptoms are flu-like, with fever, headache, and muscle pain, followed by sudden respiratory failure. HPS has a higher case fatality rate than HFRS, at 30–60%. For both HFRS and HPS, illness is the result of increased vascular permeability, decreased platelet count, and overreaction of the immune system.The hantavirus genome consists of three single-stranded negative-sense RNA segments that encode one protein each: an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), a spike glycoprotein precursor, and the N protein. Segments are encased in N proteins to form ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes that each have a copy of RdRp attached. RNP complexes are surrounded by a lipid envelope that has spike proteins emanating from its surface. Replication begins when spikes attach to the surface of cells. After entering the cell, the envelope fuses with endosomes and lysosomes, which empties RNPs into the cytoplasm. RdRp then transcribes the genome to produce messenger RNA (mRNA) for translation by host ribosomes to produce viral proteins and replicates the genome for progeny viruses. Old World hantaviruses assemble in the Golgi apparatus and obtain their envelope from it, before being transported to the cell membrane to leave the cell via exocytosis. New World hantaviruses assemble near the cell membrane and obtain their envelope from it as they leave the cell by budding from its surface.Hantaviruses were first discovered following the Korean War. During the war, HFRS was a common ailment in soldiers stationed near the Hantan river. The first hantavirus was isolated in 1978 in South Korea, and was named the Hantaan virus. It was shown to be responsible for the outbreak during the war. Within a few years, other hantaviruses that cause HFRS were discovered throughout Eurasia. In 1982, the World Health Organization gave HFRS its name, and in 1987, hantaviruses were classified as a distinct genus for the first time. In 1993, an outbreak of HPS occurred in the Four Corners region in the United States, which led to the discovery of pathogenic New World hantaviruses and the second disease caused by hantaviruses. Since then, hantaviruses have been found not just in rodents but also in moles, shrews, and bats.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:24 UTC on Friday, 8 May 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Orthohantavirus on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Geraint.

In Season 15 episode 2, Elixir Wizards Sundi Myint and Charles Suggs chat with Micah Cooper to talk about distributed systems, data replication, and what it actually looks like to build these ideas in Elixir.   Micah shares his journey from Ruby to Elixir and walks us through Visor, a library he's building based on the Viewstamps replication algorithm. Inspired by systems like TigerBeetle, Visor explores how you can replicate state across nodes using GenServers, giving you fault tolerance and recovery without relying entirely on traditional database patterns.   We talk about the difference between distributed systems and data replication, where things tend to get misunderstood, and what changes when you start thinking about state this way. The conversation also touches on event sourcing, tradeoffs in system design, and how Elixir's distributed model makes some of these concepts more approachable than you might expect.   Along the way, we talk about building for curiosity, experimenting with new ideas, and how projects like this push the ecosystem forward.   Topics discussed in this episode: Building Visor and working with the Viewstamps replication model Replicating GenServer state across nodes Distributed systems vs. data replication Lessons from TigerBeetle and financial system design Event sourcing challenges and tradeoffs Rethinking database-first architectures Snapshotting, recovery, and fault tolerance The role of Elixir's distributed model Experimentation, learning, and building for curiosity   Links mentioned: Micah's GitHub https://github.com/mrmicahcooper Micah's GitLab https://gitlab.com/mrmicahcooper The Visor repository: https://gitlab.com/mrmicahcooper/visor Visor Hex Package https://hex.pm/packages/visor Ruby on Rails https://rubyonrails.org/ Phoenix LiveView Framework https://www.phoenixframework.org/ Zig Programming Language https://ziglang.org/ TigerBeetle https://tigerbeetle.com/ TigerBeetle internal docs https://github.com/tigerbeetle/tigerbeetle/tree/main/docs/internals The BEAM https://www.erlang-solutions.com/blog/the-beam-erlangs-virtual-machine/ GenServer https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/GenServer.html Apache Kafka https://github.com/apache/kafka RabbitMQ https://www.rabbitmq.com/ Redpanda https://www.redpanda.com/ SQL https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/structured-query-language Kubernetes https://kubernetes.io/ YAML https://yaml.org/ Nomad Workload Orchestrator https://developer.hashicorp.com/nomad Flutter https://flutter.dev/ Commanded https://hexdocs.pm/commanded/Commanded.html Go Programming Language https://go.dev/ Clojure Programming Language https://clojure.org/ Nebulex https://hexdocs.pm/nebulex/Nebulex.html Mnesia https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/mnesia/mnesia.html Cachex https://hexdocs.pm/cachex/Cachex.html libgraph https://hexdocs.pm/libgraph/Graph.html Horde https://hexdocs.pm/horde/Horde.Registry.html NocFree split keyboard https://www.nocfree.com/ Micah's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/micah-cooper-4a737560/ 

While talking to a customer a few weeks ago, they mentioned that they used Contained Availability Groups (CAG) everywhere. They also said they were amazing and wondered why everyone wasn't using them in other environments. Of course, I questioned the "everywhere", which turned out to be more of a default for new systems than a standard across all systems. That's likely true of most things since it's rare we get to update/patch/set something across an environment of any size and ensure every system is the same. Still, setting a CAG as a default makes some sense for enterprises. This ensures that in an HA situation I have my logins, jobs, etc. already on a secondary node. That's been one of the challenges of using lightly linked systems that only sync up database level information. Log shipping, Replication, Availability Groups can all work to keep a secondary ready to take over, but they all miss information that is stored in master or msdb. Read the rest of Who is Using CAGs?

Today, we explore what it means to invest in a world defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). We discuss why geopolitical shocks... especially supply-driven ones... are creating persistent trends across markets, and why trend-following strategies are thriving despite strong equity performance. The conversation dives into how investors process information (or fail to), the limits of central bank responses to supply shocks, and why markets may not be fully pricing in current risks. Mark also shares new research comparing hedge fund strategies under different volatility regimes, highlighting why managed futures stand out as a robust diversifier. The episode closes with a forward-looking discussion on AI, replication strategies, and the growing role of narrative versus data in investment decision-making.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Mark on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 – Introduction: Preparing for the unpredictable00:36 – Entering a VUCA world: volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity02:00 – “Uncharted territory” in markets and beyond05:30 – Central banks, leadership changes, and policy uncertainty07:16 – Oil markets, OPEC shifts, and geopolitical tension10:16 – Trend-following performance update and market context14:06 – Reverse engineering CTAs and the role of AI18:42 – Replication strategies vs. true alpha22:41 – Trend-following performance metrics (April update)24:43 – Supply shocks and why they're harder to manage28:53 – Are markets underreacting to geopolitical risk?31:53 – Information overload, ambiguity, and trend persistence34:54 – Why more data doesn't mean better decisions38:34 – Government intervention vs. market-driven trends40:30 – Pandemic policies and unintended inflation43:00 – New research: hedge fund strategies vs. volatility regimes47:16 – Why managed futures stand out as diversifiers51:11 – Narrative vs. data in investment decisions55:36 – AI, sentiment analysis, and the future of models58:46 – Simplicity vs. complexity in strategy design01:00:49 – Bundling vs. unbundling investment strategies01:03:18 – Momentum crashes and new research directionsCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

How do we know what we know? That's where science comes in—it gives us a method for testing our ideas and getting trustworthy results. But some researchers have warned that many scientific studies can't be replicated. To find out how deep the problem goes, the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency funded one of the largest analyses of social science, called the SCORE project. They checked the results of thousands of papers across economics, education, and psychology—and found that only half of them could be replicated. Joining Host Ira Flatow to discuss the findings are Tim Errington, one of the leads on this project, and economist Abel Brodeur, who recently released the results of a separate replication study that found more encouraging results than SCORE did. Guest: Dr. Tim Errington is senior director of research at the Center For Open Science in Washington, D.C. Dr. Abel Brodeur is a professor of economics at the University of Ottawa and founder of the Institute for Replication.

In this episode, Thomas Plümper and Eric Neumayer explore the hidden challenges in modern science, from outright fraud to the subtler practice of “tweaking” data that distorts results. They examine why the self-correcting nature of science often falls short, how incentives and academic pressure drive misconduct, and the double-edged role of AI in both enabling and detecting fraud. The conversation also tackles debates around p-values and statistical reasoning, shares cautionary case studies, and proposes solutions like greater data transparency and stronger verification standards.

Julia is author and coauthor of numerous books and scientific articles, including Transcendent Mind: Rethinking the Science of Consciousness with Imants Baruss; The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul’s Work; The Premonition Code: The Science of Precognition, How Sensing the Future Can Change Your Life Paperback; and Have a Nice Disclosure. Her website is juliamossbridge.com Julia describes her research that explores the relationship between photons and time, “Replication and Characterization of the Causally Ambiguous Duration-Sorting (CADS) Effect”, that builds on the double-slit experiment. Through her exploration of bosonic particles, consciousness, and the past, present, and future, she suggests that the nature of time may be more like a braid than linear. By equating the informational substrate of the universe, that connects everything, with unconditional love, she demonstrates a connection of science and spirituality. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:03:42 Causally ambiguous research 00:05:08 The double-slit experiment and interference pattern 00:13:08 Collapsing the wave function 00:15:50 Presentiment or retrocausality 00:20:31 Time and space 00:29:36 Consciousness and universal love 00:34:50 The physics of love 00:50:05 Photons and mind-like particles 00:54:04 The past and future are in the present. 00:57:45 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed CoHost, Emmy Vadnais, OTR/L, is a licensed occupational therapist, intuitive healer and coach, and spiritual guide based in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Common Mistakes During Family Business Estate Planning Estate planning is technical. Family business estate planning is emotional. Because in a family enterprise, wealth is never just capital. It represents identity. Sacrifice. Legacy. Control. Protection. And when estate planning is driven by fear instead of preparation, families don't just protect assets — they unintentionally weaken the people who must steward them. In this episode of The Family Biz Show, wealth psychologist Jim Grubman, co-author of Wealth 3.0, challenges the most common assumptions shaping multi-generational estate planning. What he reveals reframes everything.   The 70% Myth That Built an Industry You've heard it: "Seventy percent of wealth transfers fail by the second generation." It's repeated in boardrooms. It's cited in advisor presentations. It's used to justify complex trust structures and control mechanisms. But where did it actually come from? Jim explains how limited, narrow research became accepted as universal truth — and how that narrative shaped decades of defensive estate planning. When founders believe generational decline is inevitable, they design structures around protection instead of development. Fear becomes policy.   Exposure Is Not Preparation Many G1 leaders assume: "My kids grew up around this business. They've seen it. They'll figure it out." But as one next-generation leader put it: "Just because I was along for the ride doesn't mean I know how to drive." Estate planning often transfers ownership without transferring capability. Preparation is not passive. It requires: Intentional financial education Decision-making responsibility Governance participation Clear communication Without these, wealth transitions become fragile.   The Hidden Estate Planning Variable: Parenting The quiet truth behind most generational breakdowns? It's not tax law. It's not structure. It's not even governance. It's parenting. Jim calls it the "hidden dirty little secret" of wealth. Families often assume they can raise children the same way they were raised — even when their economic reality has completely changed. But wealth changes context. Context requires adaptation. If parenting doesn't evolve, tension accumulates. And no trust structure can fix that.   The Language That Shapes Legacy One of the most powerful insights in this episode is linguistic. "Shirt sleeves to shirt sleeves in three generations." It's not even a complete sentence. There's no verb. No inevitability. Just assumption. Yet families internalize it as destiny. And when inevitability is assumed, estate plans become restrictive. Control increases. Trust decreases. Narrative drives structure. Structure drives outcomes.   Adaptation Is the Real Strategy Successful multi-generational families ask three questions: What should we keep? What should we let go? What must we learn? Estate planning is not static. Every generation faces: Different markets Different personalities Different spouses Different pressures Replication does not guarantee continuity. Adaptation does.   Key Takeaways • The "70% wealth transfer failure" statistic is often overstated and misunderstood. • Fear-based estate planning leads to over-control and restrictive structures. • Exposure to wealth does not equal readiness to manage it. • Preparation for generational transition must be active and intentional. • Parenting and communication are central to long-term wealth continuity. • Language and inherited narratives shape governance decisions. • Estate planning should focus on developing capable stewards — not just protecting assets.   The Real Purpose of Family Business Estate Planning Estate planning is not primarily about minimizing taxes. It is about aligning: Wealth and capability Structure and trust Protection and preparation Family identity and future leadership When estate planning is fear-driven, families fragment. When it is preparation-driven, families flourish. This episode is a masterclass in reframing estate planning from defensive preservation to intentional generational development. Because wealth doesn't fail. Preparation does.

In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Louise Hecker, Associate Professor of Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. Together, they dive into Louise's recent research exploring how psilocybin, the active compound in psychedelic mushrooms, may influence aging biology at the cellular and organismal level.Louise shares the story behind her curiosity about psilocybin, sparked by conversations with a friend and fueled by a lack of scientific answers. She explains how her team overcame regulatory hurdles to study the effects of psilocybin on human cells and aging mice. Their findings showed that psilocybin extended cellular lifespan and reduced hallmarks of aging, such as oxidative stress and DNA damage. In mice, regular dosing improved survival, reversed visible signs of aging, and affected organs beyond the brain.The conversation also covers the challenges of translating these findings into humans, the need for more research on dosing and safety, and the importance of funding in moving this field forward. Louise encourages listeners to stay curious, think beyond established paths, and keep an open mind as new questions and discoveries emerge in the science of aging.Guest-at-a-Glance

Ever heard of cognitive dissonance? That thing a psychology lecturer might have explained to you once upon a time, likely using the same UFO cult example everyone else uses. Well, a new paper by Thomas Kelly suggests that the UFO cult example might have been ever so slightly oversold.Kelly's archival work suggests that the researchers didn't just observe the cult as reported. Instead, they infiltrated it, faked supernatural experiences, assumed quasi-leadership roles, and then wrote up the results as if the group had spontaneously doubled down on their failed prophecy, which they had not. Because the leader recanted, and the group fell apart shortly after the failed prophecy. Minor details.Matt and Chris discuss this paper, a 2024 multilab replication, and some other papers by Kelly, considering the ever-reliable tendency of researchers to find exactly what they are looking for.It's cognitive dissonance all the way down, folks.The full episode is available to Patreon subscribers (1 hour, 10 minutes).Join us at: https://www.patreon.com/DecodingTheGurusDecoding Academia 34: When Prophecy Fails Debunked?00:00 Introduction02:04 Cognitive Dissonance Theory06:41 Classic lab evidence: effort justification & the ‘severe initiation' study08:33 When Prophecy Fails: The Original Account10:54 The debunking: archival evidence, misconduct claims, and ethical red flags20:22 Replication reality check: multi-lab results and ‘strong vs weak' dissonance31:40 Beyond one case: survivorship bias, failed prophecies, and early Christianity parallels35:51 Christianity as Historical Anomaly or Cognitive Dissonance Exemplar?41:48 Thomas Kelly: Interesting biosafety takes and a possible Christian lens45:43 The importance of seeking for disconfirming evidence50:23 Conspiracy-theory dynamics & narrative elaboration56:30 Classical Psychological Theories and Personal Motivations01:03:07 Steps that can be taken to reduce biases01:05:01 Stay tentative, check evidence, and don't pick sides too fast01:06:30 A lesson from Scott Alexander!SourcesAcademic Papers and BooksFestinger, L.

Eighteen months ago, Tyler Cloutier appeared on the show with what sounded like an ambitious (some might say crazy) plan: build a new distributed database from scratch, then use it to power a massively multiplayer online game. That's two of the hardest problems in software, tackled simultaneously. But sometimes the best infrastructure comes from solving your own impossible problems.The game, Bitcraft, has now launched on Steam. SpacetimeDB has hit version 1.0. And Tyler returns to share what actually happened when theory met production reality. We cover the launch day performance disasters (including a cascading failure caused by logging while holding a lock), why single-threaded execution running entirely from L1 cache can outperform sophisticated multi-threaded approaches by two orders of magnitude, and how the database's reducer model - borrowed from functional programming - enables zero-downtime code deployments. We also get into how SpacetimeDB is expanding beyond games with TypeScript support and React hooks that make building real-time multiplayer web apps surprisingly simple.If you're building anything where multiple users need to see the same data update in real time - which, as Tyler points out, describes most successful applications from Figma to Facebook - SpacetimeDB's approach of treating every app as a multiplayer game might be worth understanding.--Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoicesSupport Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DeveloperVoices/joinSpacetimeDB: https://spacetimedb.com/SpacetimeDB on GitHub: https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDBOur previous episode with Tyler: https://youtu.be/roEsJcQYjd8Clockwork Labs: https://clockworklabs.io/Bitcraft Online: https://bitcraftonline.com/Bitcraft on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3454650/BitCraft_OnlineWebAssembly: https://webassembly.org/Flecs (ECS for C/C++): https://www.flecs.dev/flecs/TigerBeetle: https://tigerbeetle.com/CockroachDB: https://www.cockroachlabs.com/Google Cloud Spanner: https://cloud.google.com/spannerErlang: https://www.erlang.org/Apache Kafka: https://kafka.apache.org/Tyler Cloutier on X: https://x.com/TylerFCloutierTyler Cloutier on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylercloutier/--Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.socialKris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkinsKris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/0:00 Intro2:01 The Architecture of SpacetimeDB5:01 Client-Side Prediction in Multiplayer Games11:00 Reducers and Event Streaming15:00 Launching Bitcraft on Steam19:00 Debugging Launch Performance Problems26:56 Hot-Swapping Server Code Without Downtime30:01 In-Memory Tables and Query Optimization42:00 Is SpacetimeDB Only For Games?51:00 Performance Benchmarking For Web Workloads55:00 Why Single-Threaded Beats Multi-Threaded1:00:01 Multi-Version Concurrency Control Trade-offs1:05:01 Sharding Data Across Multiple Nodes1:10:56 Inter-Module Communication and Actor Models1:17:00 Replication and the Write-Ahead Log1:24:00 Supported Client Languages1:29:00 Getting Started With SpacetimeDB1:39:02 Outro

This is a special episode, highlighting a session from ELC Annual 2025! The true promise of AI isn't in replicating human intelligence. It's in developing entirely new forms of non-human intelligence that perceive and understand the world in fundamentally different ways. Jamie Lien (Co-Founder and Chief Scientist @ Archetype AI) and Rashi Agarwal (Head of AI Engineering @ GoodLeap) explore the emergence of "Physical AI" - machines that sense the world through modalities beyond human biology to form internal representations free from our biases. This means building machines that can directly sense the physical world through modalities beyond human biology, form their own internal representations and interpretations free from our biases, and then translate that understanding back to us in human terms. ABOUT JAIME LIENJaime Lien, Ph.D. is Co-Founder and Chief Scientist at Archetype AI, a pioneering startup advancing Physical AI, artificial intelligence that understands the real world through real-time sensor data fusion.With over a dacade of experience in radar-based sensing, signal processing, and hardware engineering, Jaime's career bridges cutting-edge research and consumer-ready innovation. Before Archetype, she led radar sensing development for Google ATAP's Project Soli and contributed wireless communication and localization expertise at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. ABOUT RASHI AGRAWALRashi Agrawal is Head of AI Engineering at GoodLeap, where she leads enterprise-wide AI initiatives that deliver real business impact. An accomplished speaker, she covers the latest in AI, including context engineering, evaluations, and multi-agent collaboration, while driving Applied AI innovation in the enterprise. Previously, she scaled engineering teams at Yahoo, advancing its multibillion-dollar advertising business. A passionate world traveler to 40+ countries, Rashi brings global perspective and energy to her leadership and storytelling. SHOW NOTES:Archetype AI's mission: Building a foundation model for physical reality (2:24)The potential for discovery: Using AI to observe phenomena humans cannot perceive (3:36)Augmentation vs. Replacement: Giving humans "superpowers" rather than automating them away (5:48)The "Perfect Storm" for Physical AI: Transformers, self-supervised learning, and commodity sensors (6:04)Defining “Non-Human Intelligence” and removing the constraints of human labels (8:34)Why language is inherently lossy and insufficient for true physical understanding (10:28)Real-world application: How Physical AI aids safety decision-making in the solar industry (12:35)Use case: Improving pedestrian safety and traffic signaling in Bellevue (14:51)The biggest engineering leadership challenge: Embracing the “messiness” of real-world data (16:21)Q&A: Why we shouldn't teach AI physical laws, but let it discover them (18:50)Q&A: Validating models when there is a defined ground truth vs. subjective language (20:49)Q&A: Compute requirements and the future of active learning at the edge (22:05) LINKS AND RESOURCESVideo version of Jaime and Rashi's session at ELC Annual 2025 This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, we try to make the concept of tacit knowledge explicit. How much of our scientific knowledge depends on knowledge that we can't communicate directly? How can we replicate studies, if they might rely on tacit knowledge? And why has the concept itself not been made more explicit in the last 45 years? Enjoy.    Collins, H. (2012).

Today's guest is Kathryn Kaminski, Chief Research Strategist at AlphaSimplex, where she's also the co-portfolio manager for the firm's Managed Futures Strategy and Global Alternatives Strategy. She also co-authored the book Trend Following with Managed Futures: The Search for Crisis Alpha. In today's episode, Meb and Katy discuss the tough year for managed futures strategies, which have experienced the 2nd largest drawdown in the last quarter century. Katy walks through the history of drawdowns and recoveries since 2000, explaining investors who have been patient in the past have been rewarded when the strategy recovers. She emphasizes managed futures' ability to serve as a diversifier to stocks, revisits her research on crisis alpha, and touches on the rise of managed futures ETFs as a way for investors to get exposure to this asset class.

How can we  address the problem of violence against the poor? International Justice Mission exists to answer this question with protecting and rescuing victims, bringing criminals to justice, restoring survivors to safety and strength, and helping local law enforcement build a safe future that lasts. In this episode, International Justice Mission's founder and CEO, Gary Haugen, joins Mark Labberton to reflect on almost three decades of IJM's fight against violence and slavery worldwide—and the spiritual formation that sustains it. Haugen shares the origins of IJM in response to systemic violence against the poor, the evolution from individual rescues to transforming justice systems, and the remarkable rise of survivor leaders transforming their own nations. Together they reflect on courage, joy, and faith amid immense risk—bearing witness to God's power to bring justice and healing through ordinary people. Episode Highlights “Protecting the poor from violence is God's weight, but it's our work, and we're gonna seek to do it Jesus's way.” ”In this era, I just think what the world is aching to see is the followers of Jesus who have a incandescent freedom from fear and a life-giving joy.” “Most of this violence will go away if government does just even a decent job of enforcing the law.” “Our first commitment is to help each other become more like Jesus—and from that strength, to do justice.” “The greatest miracle of IJM is not only the results—it's the freedom from fear and the joy with which they've done it.” “God saw them in their darkness, and they now testify to the goodness of an almighty God who loved them.” Helpful Links and Resources International Justice Mission – https://www.ijm.org Gary Haugen, The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence – https://www.amazon.com/Locust-Effect-Poverty-Requires-Violence/dp/0199937877 Gary Haugen, Just Courage: God's Great Expedition for the Restless Christian – https://www.amazon.com/Just-Courage-Expedition-Restless-Christian-ebook/dp/B001PSEQR4 Riverside Church Sermon by Martin Luther King Jr., “Beyond Vietnam” — https://kinginstitute.stanford.edu/encyclopedia/beyond-vietnam William Lloyd Garrison biography – https://www.britannica.com/biography/William-Lloyd-Garrison Rwanda Genocide Investigation (UN Historical Overview) – https://www.un.org/en/preventgenocide/rwanda About Gary Haugen Gary Haugen is the founder and CEO of International Justice Mission (IJM), the world's largest international anti-slavery organization.

What if the ideas that linger in the back of your mind — the ones you can't quite explain — are the ones you most need to pay attention to?Episode SummaryIn this episode, I explore that question with Dr Nuno Reis, a former physicist and investment banker turned thinker and guide in uncovering what he calls rare dots — those unique, pre-verbal insights that feel deeply resonant but don't yet fit into our existing models of the world.Our conversation begins with Nuno's unusual career path, from string theory and theoretical physics into financial modelling and risk management, before moving into transparency roles in finance. From there, we trace the thread of his enduring curiosity: how crises drive paradigm shifts, why models are useful but limited, and what happens when we acknowledge that not everything fits into neat rational frameworks.Nuno then introduces the concept of rare dots and explains how he's harnessing AI in a novel, deeply human way: not to replace thought, but to help us surface the preverbal ideas that shape our uniqueness. Together, we explore how rare dots can guide creativity, meaning, and innovation in our work and lives — and why paying attention to the things that don't quite make sense may be the most sensible thing we can do.Guest BiographyDr Nuno Reis describes himself as a physicist turned banker turned explorer of human thinking. After completing a PhD in theoretical physics with a focus on string theory, he transitioned into investment banking at UBS and later into financial engineering and transparency initiatives at Bloomberg.Over 18 years in finance, he applied scientific methods to risk modelling, hedging, and complex derivatives, all while maintaining a deep curiosity about the limits of logic and models.Today, Nuno is the creator of the Rare Dots framework, which helps individuals and organisations uncover the pre-verbal insights that drive creativity and meaning. He combines philosophy, history of thought, and cutting-edge uses of AI to build environments where people can explore their deepest intuitions.Through workshops, cohorts, and his own practice, he guides others in turning those rare dots into pathways for innovation, purpose, and contribution.AI-Generated Timestamped Summary[00:00:00] Introduction and framing of rare dots as preverbal insights[00:01:00] Nuno's background: from physics to banking and financial modelling[00:06:00] Applying scientific methods to markets and the 2008 crisis[00:12:00] Replication crisis and paradigm shifts in science[00:18:00] Early story of curiosity and existential questions[00:21:00] Introduction of rare dots as deeply resonant insights[00:26:00] How resonance and intuition shape meaning[00:30:00] Creating environments to surface rare dots[00:35:00] History of thinking vs history of ideas[00:40:00] Using AI as a tool for rare dots and Wittgenstein's ladder[00:46:00] How AI can surface pre-verbal thinking[00:52:00] AI as a prompt for deeper human thinking[00:56:00] Rare dots exploration as an infinite game[01:02:00] Rare dots as a guide for careers and human valueLinksNuno on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nuno-reis/Nuno's Substack - https://nunobreis.substack.com/

Wei Hu is the Senior Vice President, High Availability Technologies, at Oracle. In today's Cloud Wars Live, Hu sits down with Bob Evans for a wide-ranging discussion on Oracle's globally distributed database, AI-native workloads, and how Oracle is helping businesses meet data sovereignty requirements while delivering high performance, elasticity, and always-on availability across regions.Where AI Meets Your DataThe Big Themes:Globally Distributed Exadata Database on Exascale: Oracle's Globally Distributed Exadata Database on Exascale Infrastructure delivers something few cloud providers can: high performance, high availability, and full compliance. Built on Oracle's powerful Exadata platform, this architecture removes the traditional need to purchase or manage hardware. Organizations can start small and elastically scale compute and memory across multiple regions.Agentic AI and Vector Search at Enterprise Scale: Oracle's database innovation is designed for real-world AI demands, especially agentic AI. AI agents need massive compute, consistent availability, and extremely fast access to live business data. Oracle's globally distributed architecture supports in-memory vector indexes for lightning-fast retrieval augmented generation (RAG), making AI more responsive and effective. Additionally, Oracle keeps AI close to the data — eliminating stale data issues and ensuring compliance.Built for a Sovereign Cloud World: Data residency and sovereignty are no longer optional, they're legal imperatives. Countries around the world are implementing strict rules on where data must be stored, how it can be accessed, and who can process it. Oracle addresses these challenges with policy-driven data distribution, allowing customers to define how and where data lives. Whether it's for compliance with India's payment data regulations or Europe's GDPR, Oracle enables precise control without requiring app changes or replication of the full stack.The Big Quote: “The other thing that's interesting about agentic AI is that it's very dynamic. The work comes in, the demands comes in, like a tidal wave. Then it goes away, right, then a little, then when it comes again, there's another tidal wave. So, what you really want to do is have an infrastructure that is elastic, that can scale up and down depending on the demand."More from Wei Hu and Oracle:Connect with Wei Hu on LinkedIn and learn more about Globally Distributed Exadata Database on Exascale Infrastructure.* Sponsored Podcast * Visit Cloud Wars for more.

Katy Kaminski returns to examine a moment in trend following that feels familiar... but isn't. Drawing on new research, she and Niels explore how drawdowns resolve, why recovery is faster when markets break, and slower when they don't, and what that asymmetry reveals about the current cycle. They unpack copper's historic 1-day move, the role of China in CTA return dispersion, and what slower, replication-based strategies might be capturing that others aren't. This episode isn't about defending trend - it's about understanding what environments it needs, and what signals suggest we're getting closer.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Katy on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:00:48 - What has been on our radar recently?07:43 - Crazy moves in US copper09:45 - Industry performance update14:31 - How should we approach the current drawdowns in managed futures?23:01 - Why trend following is struggling at the moment31:22 - Rebalancing in trend following is key33:57 - A better alternative trend following?37:32 - The different types of impact to markets and how it reflects on the CTA industry44:41 - The key variables for understanding regimes53:21 - Replication is beating the benchmarks that they are trying to replicate58:16 - Mechanical vs. regression based replication59:33 - Defining tracking errorCopyright © 2024 – CMC AG – All Rights...

My guest is Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Professor Emeritus of Health Policy at Stanford University. We discuss which scientific questions ought to be the priority for NIH, how to incentivize bold, innovative science especially from younger labs, how to solve the replication crisis and restore trust and transparency in science and public health, including acknowledging prior failures by the NIH. We discuss the COVID-19 pandemic and the data and sociological factors that motivated lockdowns, masking and vaccine mandates. Dr. Bhattacharya shares his views on how to resolve the vaccine–autism debate and how best to find the causes and cures for autism and chronic diseases. The topics we cover impact everyone: male, female, young and old and, given that NIH is the premier research and public health organization in the world, extend to Americans and non-Americans alike.
