What are you measuring yourself up against? Sadly, for years, I was measuring myself up against so many other people. That's why my life and path looked like a dang heart rate monitor. Up here, down there, over there, back down, back up. It's dizzying just thinking about it. The shift happened when I started measuring myself up against a version of myself that I wanted to be. Shortly after, my path got clearer and straighter. And **my** version of success started becoming a reality. I'm not the only one this happened to. Former NFL Linebacker, Bryan Schwartz, has a similar story that will open your eyes wide, and he's my Guest on this week's episode of the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show. If you want a clearer and straighter path to your desired future, then lock in to this week's episode! In this episode, you'll hear: What to do when you're feeling like your contribution in life is not big enough. How to continue to move forward from the condemnation that comes with past failures and mistakes. The recurring problem that Bryan sees with high capacity people. Importance of maintaining an open mindset to seize unexpected opportunities. Examining the negative effects of comparison and pressure. Importance of seeking help and embracing grace and acceptance in personal development. Key Quotes “The best coaches in the world can see things in you that you can't see yourself.” - Bryan Schwartz “The enemy of your soul doesn't bring up accusations that aren't true. He's always bringing up things that are true.” - Bryan Schwartz “Reframe your failures through the light of God's goodness. It's the difference between trying to get forgiven and living FROM forgiven.” - Bryan Schwartz “You think differently when you know you've already won.” - Bryan Schwartz “Forget what you don't have. Go all in with what you do have.” - Bryan Schwartz Connect with Bryan Twitter: @BryanSchwartz58 | https://twitter.com/BryanSchwartz58 Instagram: @blschwartz | https://www.instagram.com/blschwartz/ LinkedIn: /in/bryanschwartz58 | https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryanschwartz58/ Website: https://www.bryanlschwartz.com/ Connect with J.R.

The struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow. - Robert Tew In a world of abundance, we take many things for granted. Our morning coffee is one such example. A morning brew helps many of us win the battle to wake up by winning a neurochemical war. However, there is another battle that takes place using chemical warfare. The battlefield? The dense, green foliage of the coffee plantation. Align to the left Align in the middle Resize to full width Align to the right Add a link to the embedded image Add alt text Delete image No alt text provided for this image Created using AI Like any crop, coffee plants are subject to attack by pests. Many plants and trees have developed fascinating defence mechanisms to protect themselves against such attacks. (Like the stinging nettle to the human touch) When insects nibble on the foliage of coffee plants, they release defence compounds. One of the defence mechanisms of coffee plants is the production of caffeine. Caffeine acts as a natural insecticide, deterring and even poisoning certain insects that attempt to feed on the plant. The caffeine content in coffee leaves and beans is toxic to many insects, making them less attractive to pests and reducing the likelihood of severe infestations. In addition to caffeine, coffee plants release an acid called chlorogenic acid. This acid acts as a natural fungicide and insecticide for the plant. When we drink our cup of coffee, we also drink these compounds. Chlorogenic acid is a powerful antioxidant and helps with weight loss, blood sugar control, and heart disease prevention. However, while protecting coffee plants with pesticides and insecticides might seem beneficial, this prevents the release of chlorogenic acid. Without insect attacks, the plant does not undergo stress or produce beneficial acids. Hormesis is a process whereby a beneficial effect (improved health, stress tolerance, growth or longevity) results from exposure to low doses of a toxin or stressor. Hormesis has been studied extensively with ageing. Researchers found that introducing stressors like intermittent fasting, exercise, and cold shower therapy produces resilience and anti-ageing effects. For example, when an optional cold shower activates a mild fight or flight response, it increases our tolerance for the cold and can guard us against catching a cold. Just as we can build up our tolerance for poisons, we can improve our tolerance for adversity. This coffee narrative is a helpful metaphor that resonates in our lives and business. It's about the essentiality of struggle and how it moulds us, adding depth and substance to our existence. Just as the coffee plant needs the insect's bite to release its acid and liberate its flavour, we must struggle to bring out the best in ourselves. This is the paradoxical advantage of adversity. The Adversity Advantage: Nurturing Resilience In our forthcoming series, with former Executive Director of Research for the Accenture Institute for High Performance, Paul Nunes explains how high-performance companies develop a hothouse of talent. Paul tells us, "Talent hothouses are like agricultural greenhouses". A company needs to start with the right seeds to ensure early success for the vast majority. As those seedlings grow, leaders must find ways to prepare high-potential talent for inevitable challenges ahead. That preparation includes steps to increase their hardiness, so managers must regularly expose employees to unfamiliar ideas and ways of thinking." High-performance businesses create environments—often highly challenging—for employees to acquire the skills and experience needed to climb up the corporate ladder quickly. The goal is partly to create what our Accenture colleague Bob Thomas, in his book on the topic, calls “crucible” experiences. These life-changing events, whether on the job or not, hold lifetime lessons that can be mined to help transform someone into a leader." “You learn ten...

Start going all in on the main client you want to attract.Posting on social media should be centered around who you want to attract. With these posts you should consider also what you love doing and highlighting that so you start attracting what you love to do and what you want to attract more.Here is one strategy-You want to attract more clients that are getting married at this venue you love. Clients at this venue have larger budgets and also the style of flowers you love to create.Step 1. You create a blog post on your website of a wedding you did at this venue highlighting what you can do, how beautiful your work is and more of what you want to attract at this venue.Step 2. You then make graphics about this wedding you featured in this blog post. You create a Instagram post graphic and take text from your blog post to post on Instagram. Use the venue's hashtags and tag the venue in the post.Step 3. You can resize that post and create and Instagram story graphic. Then you can use the Instagram sticker saying - NEW BLOG POST and then link the url from your blog.Step 4. Resize that graphic again to a Pinterest image. Create a total of 10 Pinterest graphics and use photos from your wedding highlighted in the post and have that link to your blog post. Trickle these out via a scheduling tool.Step 5. Next level- create a long form video tagging the video talking about areas you can put floral and share your excitement about the venue. Tag the venue and use their hashtags.Step 6. Make a reel with a quick 30-60 video of you talking about a fun idea for that venue, key floral considerations or something that speaks to that couple and that would benefit them to watch your video. You could also make a reel with trending music with a carousel of images from that wedding.

It's the 40th episode...wow! Thanks for following and listening! You all are amazing and I'm so grateful. Today, I explain step by step how to compress and resize images using the paid version of Canva. I am not an affiliate of Canva, I just use it a lot and I think it's a great tool to prepare images for websites - and you all know it drives me crazy when images aren't resized and compressed. Also, large files slow down the load and performance of your website which in turn affects your core web vitals. Follow along and learn. If you use PhotoShop, let me know and I can walk you through how to compress and resize images there too. Click on the link below to leave me a voice message!

The Defense Health Agency has been working for years on rightsizing the Military Health system. What that means is moving some TRICARE beneficiaries away from military hospitals and clinics and to private providers. DHA had to rethink that plan after COVID hit and now a new study says TRICARE patients might get lesser care in the private world. Federal News Network's Scott Maucione talks about how DHA is responding with DHA's Assistant Director of Healthcare Administration Dr. Brian Lein.
#seo #searchengineoptimization #marketing Images are crucial in ensuring that your content is more accessible, attractive, and engaging to users, but they're equally important in terms of #seo. First, they give search engines important contextual information. Second, optimized images speed up page loading, which increases user engagement and search engine rankings. To give your brand the best opportunity to succeed with #seo, you should understand the basics of image optimization. Hi, i'm cally, from the international institute of digital #marketing. Here are 8 steps to optimize images for #seo 1. Resize your images Image size and file size are not the same thing. Image size refers to the dimensionsof an image (e.g., 1024 by 680 pixels). File size is the amount of space needed to store it on the server (e.g., 350 kilobytes). 2. Optimize image file names Choosing the right file name is important for your page #seo and for ranking in image search results. Before uploading any image, name the file with relevant, descriptive keywords. 3. Use alt tags Viewers may understand what a picture is about, but search engine spiders still need clues. Without alternative text, it's impossible for search engines to accurately index your image content. 4. Include captions Image captions may not have a direct impact on #seo, but, unlike file names and alt text, captions are visible on a website page. For this reason, they can add to the user experience. Most people are drawn to image captions to get a feel for the overall content. Without image captions, your bounce rates could increase, damaging your credibility with search engines. 5. Use unique images Using stock photos is fine, but they won't necessarily help your search rankings, as other websites often use the same images. In the same way that unique written content is better for #seo, it's a good idea to upload unique images whenever possible. 6. Ensure that your text complements the images The copy on the page can help search engines determine the relevancy of your images. If it doesn't include enough information to explain an image, add more relevant text, and describe the image if possible. 7. Add image structured data Adding structured data to your pages helps search engines display your images as rich results. Google images supports structured data for product images, videos, and recipes. For example, if you have recipes on your site and you add structured data to your images, google can add a badge to your image showing that it belongs to a recipe. 8. Use site maps According to google, a site map is “a file where you can list the web pages of your site to tell google and other search engines about the organization of your site content.” In other words, it's a file that contains a map of your site's content.

The body only will be $849. So you get that great lens for only $200. ================================= Canon unveils AI-powered automatic camera, the PowerShot PICK - Full story on DP Review. The experimental PowerShot PICK camera can analyze a scene, identify people, track their faces and then, using artificial intelligence, determine the ideal moment to capture a photo. In a rough translation, Canon refers to the PICK as an 'automatic shooting camera.' The PowerShot PICK combines Canon's optical, video processing, and artificial intelligence technology. The PowerShot PICK uses a 1/2.3-inch 12MP CMOS image sensor. The sensor is paired with a 19-57mm equivalent zoom lens with a maximum aperture of F2.8. The PICK includes built-in image stabilization. The PICK pans 170° in both directions and can tilt 110°. The PICK records to a microSD card and weighs a mere 170g. As you can see in the video above, the PICK is small, with a height of about 3.5" (90mm) tall. While the PICK is designed to take photos automatically in the background, which Canon believes will result in more authentic images and better mementos, the PowerShot PICK can also be manually controlled using keywords. A user says, 'Hello PICK,' followed by commands to take a photo, record video, change subjects and stop capturing. The PICK will launch alongside a dedicated smartphone app, allowing you to view and share photos and videos captured by PICK. The app automatically recommends the best photos, although you can view all images. The Canon PowerShot PICK is currently available only to backers on Makuake. The price for the PICK works out to just under $400. Given the campaign's success, the only remaining units are for the PICK and charging cable. The tripod bundle has sold out. Canon intends to ship the PICK to backers this July. Canon hasn't announced global or public release plans, so it's unclear if the PowerShot PICK will be available outside of Japan.

ON1 Makes Good on Promise, Adds Plugin Support for Capture One You can read the article here on PetaPixel. ON1 has announced that its Effects, Portrait AI, Resize, and HDR plugins are now compatible with Capture One. The latest versions of these plugins were announced last year with the promise for Capture One support "soon." That promise has been fulfilled. Originally launched for Adobe Lightroom Classic and Photoshop, Affinity Photo, Corel Paintshop Pro, and Apple Photos, ON1's addition of Capture One to that mix nicely fills out its support for the majority of photographers who want to use the company's plugins.

This is an uninitialized memory usage detector. MSan is a special sanitizer because it requires knowledge of every entry to the basesystem library and every entry to the kernel through public interfaces. This is mandatory in order to mark memory regions as initialized. Most of the work has been done directly for MSan. However, part of the work helped generic features in compiler-rt. Sanitizers > Changes in the sanitizer are listed below in chronological order. Almost all of the changes mentioned here landed upstream. A few small patches were reverted due to breaking non-NetBSD hosts and are rescheduled for further investigation. I maintain these patches locally and have moved on for now to work on the remaining features. NetBSD syscall hooks > I wrote a large patch (815kb!) adding support for NetBSD syscall hooks for use with sanitizers. NetBSD ioctl(2) hooks > Similar to the syscall hooks, there is need to handle every ioctl(2) call. I've created the needed patch, this time shorter - for less than 300kb. New patches still pending for upstream review > There are two corrections that I've created, and they are still pending upstream for review: Add MSan interceptor for fstat(2)](https://reviews.llvm.org/D41637) Correct the setitimer interceptor on NetBSD)](https://reviews.llvm.org/D41502) > I've got a few more local patches that require cleanup before submitting to review. NetBSD basesystem corrections Sanitizers in Go The MSan state as of today Solaris support in sanitizers > I've helped the Solaris team add basic support for Sanitizers (ASan, UBsan). This does not help NetBSD directly, however indirectly it improves the overall support for non-Linux hosts and helps to catch more Linuxisms in the code. Plan for the next milestone > I plan to continue the work on MSan and correct sanitizing of the NetBSD basesystem utilities. This mandates me to iterate over the basesystem libraries implementing the missing interceptors and correcting the current support of the existing ones. My milestone is to build all src/bin programs against Memory Sanitizer and when possible execute them cleanly. This work was sponsored by The NetBSD Foundation.

As usual, these goals were wildly delusional. > The short answer is, my iron was back up to normal. My writing speed wasn't, though. I'd lost too much general health, and needed hard exercise to recover it. Yes, writing requires physical endurance. Maintaining that level of concentration for several hours a day demands a certain level of blood flow to the brain. I could have faked it in a day job, but when self-employed as an artist? Not so much. > Then there's travel. I did my usual BSDCan trip, plus two educational trips to Lincoln City, Oregon. The current political mayhem convinced me that if I wanted to hit EuroBSDCon any time in the next few years, I should do it in the very near future. So I went to Paris, where I promptly got pickpocketed. (Thankfully, they didn't get my passport.) I was actively writing the third edition of Absolute FreeBSD, so I visited BSDCam in Cambridge to get the latest information and a sense of where FreeBSD was going. I also did weekends at Kansas LinuxFest (because they asked and paid for my trip) and Penguicon. > (Because people will ask: why EuroBSDCon and not AsiaBSDCon? A six-hour transatlantic flight requires that I take a substantial dose of heavy-grade tranquilizers. I'm incapable of making intelligent decisions while on those drugs, or for several hours afterward. They don't last long enough for twelve-hour flight to Japan, so I need to be accompanied by someone qualified to tell me when I need to take the next dose partway through the flight. This isn't a predetermined time that I can set an alarm for; it depends on how the clonazepam affects me at those altitudes. A drug overdose while flying over the North Pole would be bad. When I can arrange that qualified companion, I'll make the trip.) > I need most of the preceding week to prepare for long trips. I need the following week to recover from time shifts and general exhaustion. Additionally, I have to hoard people juice for a few weeks beforehand so I can deal with folks during these expeditions. Travel disrupts my dojo time as well, which impacts my health. > Taken as a whole: I didn't get nearly as much done as I hoped. I wrote more stories, but Kris Rusch bludgeoned me into submitting them to trad markets. (The woman is a brute, I tell you. Cross her at your peril.) Among my 2017 titles, my fiction outsold the tech books. No, not Prohibition Orcs–all four of the people who buy those love them, but the sales tell me I've done something wrong with those tales. My cozy mystery git commit murder outsold Relayd and Httpd Mastery. But what outdid them both, as well as most of my older books? What title utterly dominated my sales for the last quarter of the year? It was of course, my open source software political satire disguised as porn Savaged by Systemd: an Erotic Unix Encounter. (https://www.michaelwarrenlucas.com/index.php/romance#sbs) > I can't believe I just wrote that paragraph. The good news is, once I recovered from EuroBSDCon, my writing got better. I finished Absolute FreeBSD, 3rd edition and submitted it to the publisher. I wrote the second edition of SSH Mastery (no link, because you can't order it yet.) I'm plowing through git sync murder, the sequel to git commit murder. I don't get to see the new Star Wars movie until I finish GSM, so hopefully that'll be this month. All in all, I wrote 480,200 words in 2017. Most of that was after September. It's annoyingly close to breaking half a million, but after 2016's scandalous 195,700, I'll take it. *** ###PG Phriday: Postgres on ZFS (https://blog.2ndquadrant.com/pg-phriday-postgres-zfs/) > ZFS is a filesystem originally created by Sun Microsystems, and has been available for BSD over a decade. While Postgres will run just fine on BSD, most Postgres installations are historically Linux-based systems. ZFS on Linux has had much more of a rocky road to integration due to perceived license incompatibilities. > As a consequence, administrators were reluctant or outright refused to run ZFS on their Linux clusters. It wasn't until OpenZFS was introduced in 2013 that this slowly began to change. These days, ZFS and Linux are starting to become more integrated, and Canonical of Ubuntu fame even announced direct support for ZFS in their 16.04 LTS release. > So how can a relatively obscure filesystem designed by a now-defunct hardware and software company help Postgres? Let's find out! Eddie waited til he finished high school > Old server hardware is dirt cheap these days, and make for a perfect lab for testing suspicious configurations. This is the server we'll be using for these tests for those following along at home, or want some point of reference: Dell R710 x2 Intel X5660 CPUs, for up to 24 threads 64GB RAM x4 1TB 7200RPM SATA HDDs H200 RAID card configured for Host Bus Adapter (HBA) mode 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD > The H200 is particularly important, as ZFS acts as its own RAID system. It also has its own checksumming and other algorithms that don't like RAID cards getting in the way. As such, we put the card itself in a mode that facilitates this use case. > Due to that, we lose out on any battery-backed write cache the RAID card might offer. To make up for it, it's fairly common to use an SSD or other persistent fast storage to act both as a write cache, and a read cache. This also transforms our HDDs into hybrid storage automatically, which is a huge performance boost on a budget. She had a guitar and she taught him some chords > First things first: we need a filesystem. This hardware has four 1TB HDDs, and a 250GB SSD. To keep this article from being too long, we've already placed GPT partition tables on all the HDDs, and split the SSD into 50GB for the OS, 32GB for the write cache, and 150GB for the read cache. A more robust setup would probably use separate SSDs or a mirrored pair for these, but labs are fair game. They moved into a place they both could afford > Let's start by getting a performance baseline for the hardware. We might expect peak performance at 12 or 24 threads because the server has 12 real CPUs and 24 threads, but query throughput actually topped out at concurrent 32 processes. We can scratch our heads over this later, for now, we can consider it the maximum capabilities of this hardware. Here's a small sample: ``` $> pgbench -S -j 32 -c 32 -M prepared -T 20 pgbench ... tps = 264661.135288 (including connections establishing) tps = 264849.345595 (excluding connections establishing) ``` So far, this is pretty standard behavior. 260k prepared queries per second is great read performance, but this is supposed to be a filesystem demonstration. Let's get ZFS involved. + The papers said Ed always played from the heart Let's repeat that same test with writes enabled. Once that happens, filesystem syncs, dirty pages, WAL overhead, and other things should drastically reduce overall throughput. That's an expected result, but how much are we looking at, here? ``` $> pgbench -j 32 -c 32 -M prepared -T 10 pgbench ... tps = 6153.877658 (including connections establishing) tps = 6162.392166 (excluding connections establishing) ``` SSD cache or not, storage overhead is a painful reality. Still, 6000 TPS with writes enabled is a great result for this hardware. Or is it? Can we actually do better? Consider the Postgres fullpagewrites parameter. Tomas Vondra has written about it in the past as a necessity to prevent WAL corruption due to partial writes. The WAL is both streaming replication and crash recovery, so its integrity is of utmost importance. As a result, this is one parameter almost everyone should leave alone. ZFS is Copy on Write (CoW). As a result, it's not possible to have a torn page because a page can't be partially written without reverting to the previous copy. This means we can actually turn off fullpagewrites in the Postgres config. The results are some fairly startling performance gains: $> pgbench -j 32 -c 32 -M prepared -T 10 pgbench tps = 10325.200812 (including connections establishing) tps = 10336.807218 (excluding connections establishing) That's nearly a 70% improvement. Due to write amplification caused by full page writes, Postgres produced 1.2GB of WAL files during a 1-minute pgbench test, but only 160MB with full page writes disabled. To be fair, a 32-thread pgbench write test is extremely abusive and certainly not a typical usage scenario. However, ZFS just ensured our storage a much lower write load by altering one single parameter. That means the capabilities of the hardware have also been extended to higher write workloads as IO bandwidth is not being consumed by WAL traffic. + They both met movie stars, partied and mingled Astute readers may have noticed we didn't change the default ZFS block size from 128k to align with the Postgres default of 8kb. As it turns out, the 128kb blocks allow ZFS to better combine some of those 8kb Postgres pages to save space. That will allow our measly 2TB to go a lot further than is otherwise possible. Please note that this is not de-duplication, but simple lz4 compression, which is nearly real-time in terms of CPU overhead. De-duplication on ZFS is currently an uncertain bizzaro universe populated with misshapen horrors crawling along a broken landscape. It's a world of extreme memory overhead for de-duplication tables, and potential lost data due to inherent conflicts with the CoW underpinnings. Please don't use it, let anyone else use it, or even think about using it, ever. + They made a record and it went in the chart We're still not done. One important aspect of ZFS as a CoW filesystem, is that it has integrated snapshots. Consider the scenario where a dev is connected to the wrong system and drops what they think is a table in a QA environment. It turns out they were in the wrong terminal and just erased a critical production table, and now everyone is frantic. + The future was wide open It's difficult to discount an immediately observable reduction in write overhead. Snapshots have a multitude of accepted and potential use cases, as well. In addition to online low-overhead compression, and the hybrid cache layer, ZFS boasts a plethora of features we didn't explore. Built-in checksums with integrated self-healing suggest it isn't entirely necessary to re-initialize an existing Postgres instance to enable checksums. The filesystem itself ensures checksums are validated and correct, especially if we have more than one drive resource in our pool. It even goes the extra mile and actively corrects inconsistencies when encountered. I immediately discounted ZFS back in 2012 because the company I worked for at the time was a pure Linux shop. ZFS was only available using the FUSE driver back then, meaning ZFS only worked through userspace with no real kernel integration. It was fun to tinker with, but nobody sane would use that on a production server of any description. Things have changed quite drastically since then. I've stopped waiting for btrfs to become viable, and ZFS has probably taken the throne away from XFS as my filesystem of choice. Future editions of the Postgres High Availability Cookbook will reflect this as well. Postgres MVCC and ZFS CoW seem made for each other. I'm curious to see what will transpire over the next few years now that ZFS has reached mainstream acceptance in at least one major Linux distribution.
