In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Richard Easton, co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones, about the remarkable history behind the Global Positioning System and its ripple effects on technology, secrecy, and innovation. They trace the story from Roger Easton's early work on time navigation and atomic clocks to the 1973 approval of the GPS program, the Cold War's influence on satellite development, and how civilian and military interests shaped its evolution. The conversation also explores selective availability, the Gulf War, and how GPS paved the way for modern mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze, as well as broader questions about information, transparency, and the future of scientific innovation.

Richard Easton explains that the Navy and Air Force each had different ideas for navigation satellites in the 1960s. The Navy wanted mid-Earth orbits with autonomous atomic clocks, while the Air Force preferred ground-controlled repeaters in geostationary orbit. The eventual compromise in 1973 created the modern GPS structure—24 satellites in six constellations—which balanced accuracy, independence, and resilience.Atomic clocks made global navigation possible. Roger Easton's early insight was that improving atomic clock precision would one day enable real-time positioning. The hydrogen maser, developed in 1960, became the breakthrough technology that made GPS feasible. This innovation turned a theoretical idea into a working global system and also advanced timekeeping for scientific and financial applications.Civilian access to GPS was always intended. Contrary to popular belief, GPS wasn't a military secret turned public after the Korean airliner tragedy in 1983. Civilian receivers, such as TI's 4100 model, were already available in 1981. Reagan's 1983 announcement merely reaffirmed an existing policy that GPS would serve both military and civilian users.The Gulf War proved GPS's strategic value. During the 1991 conflict, U.S. and coalition forces used mostly civilian receivers after the Pentagon lifted “selective availability,” which intentionally degraded accuracy. GPS allowed troops to coordinate movement and strikes even during sandstorms, changing modern warfare.Secrecy and innovation were deeply intertwined. Easton recounts how classified projects like GRAB and POPPY—satellites disguised as scientific missions—laid technical groundwork for navigation systems. The crossover between secret defense projects and public science fueled breakthroughs but also obscured credit and understanding.Ending selective availability unleashed global applications. When the distortion feature was turned off in May 2000, GPS accuracy improved instantly, leading to new industries—geocaching, precision agriculture, logistics, and smartphone navigation. This marked GPS's shift from a defense tool to an everyday utility.Innovation's future may rely on decentralization. Reflecting on his father's era and today's landscape, Easton argues that bureaucratic “big science” has grown sluggish. He sees promise in smaller, independent innovators—helped by AI, cheaper satellites, and private space ventures like SpaceX—continuing the cycle of technological transformation that GPS began.

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores why sometimes not knowing can actually make you calmer, more focused, and more creative. Continuing the theme of counterintuitive brain science, she builds on previous Think Thursday episodes like The Paradox of Freedom, Novelty for Habit Change, and last week's Defensive Pessimism to show how Selective Ignorance helps protect the brain's limited capacity for attention, energy, and emotion.What You'll LearnWhy so many principles of neuroscience and psychology feel counterintuitive at firstHow your brain filters 11 million bits of information every second through the reticular activating systemWhy constant news, emails, and notifications drain your mental energyHow dopamine drives curiosity and why too much novelty burns it outWhat studies show about the benefits of “information fasting” and reduced mental inputPractical ways to practice Selective Ignorance to improve focus and reduce stressKey Quotes“The people who make meaningful change aren't the ones who know the most—they're the ones who filter the best.” — James Clear, Atomic Habits“Sometimes not knowing helps you know yourself better.” — Molly WattsPractical TakeawaysCurate your inputs.

In this episode of the Develop This! Podcast, Dennis Fraise is joined by Ashley Canada and Eric Canada for the third installment in a four-part series on building an AI blueprint. They dive into the essential role of workforce upskilling in successful AI adoption, explaining why AI training must extend beyond technical teams to prevent the creation of a two-tier workforce. The discussion highlights how inclusive AI training not only builds employee skills but also boosts morale, engagement, and organizational growth. Listeners will gain actionable strategies for empowering employees, leveraging AI to amplify human strengths, and involving staff in identifying opportunities for AI implementation. The episode also explores quick wins that spark awareness, the evolving roles of AI in economic development organizations, and practical ways to integrate AI into a broader workforce development strategy. Key Takeaways: Upskilling the entire workforce is essential for successful AI adoption. Selective training risks creating a two-tiered workforce. AI enhances human capabilities and engagement—it doesn't replace people. Inclusive training fosters morale, ownership, and organizational alignment. Staff input is critical for identifying AI opportunities that add real value. Automating repetitive tasks frees humans for higher-value work. Understanding AI tools amplifies unique human strengths. Economic development organizations play a role in broader community AI education. Quick wins in AI training build awareness and momentum. Future-ready employees will work alongside AI copilots to achieve more.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we cover the arraignment of former FBI Director James Comey. Host Jessica Levinson explains the charges against Comey and outlines his defense strategies, including claims of vindictive prosecution and challenges to the validity of the prosecutor's appointment. Tune in as Jessica breaks down the legal complexities and what this high-profile case means for the broader landscape of justice.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:Challenge to Validity of Appointment: Comey's defense intends to argue that the U.S. attorney who brought the indictment, Lindsey Halligan, may not have been validly appointed. If successful, the charges can't simply be refiled due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.Selective and Vindictive Prosecution Motions: The defense plans to file motions asserting that the prosecution was brought with political animus and lacked objective justification—raising important questions about equal protection and due process under the law.High Bar for Prosecution: To secure a conviction, prosecutors must prove that Comey knowingly made false statements and intentionally obstructed Congress—standards that can be difficult to meet, especially with the complex context and timing of the indictment.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

Add your email id here to get this directly to your inbox.Do subscribe to show Minimalist Techie over Apple Or Spotify Or YouTube podcast (Click on Hyperlinks for Apple Or on Spotify Or on YouTube) or hear it over email you received through my subscription or on my website.This weekly newsletter is mostly about the article, books, videos etc. I read or watch or my views on different topics which revolves around my head during the week.Point discussed in this Podcast,Why So Few Tech Jobs for Recent Grads? • The promise vs. the reality • Data showing how entry-level tech hiring has contracted • Why companies demand high experience from newcomers • Role of AI / tooling in shifting the job landscape • What grads and educational systems can do differentlyData Point & Implication* Entry-level hiring by top tech firms dropped by 50% since 2019 San Francisco StandardImplication - The largest tech companies are hiring far fewer fresh grads, undermining the promise of entry-level paths.* The share of tech job ads requiring ≥5 years' experience rose from ~37% to ~42% from 2022 → 2025 Indeed Hiring LabImplication - More roles are shifting toward “mid/senior-level only,” squeezing the bottom tier.* Projections show ~317,700 new job openings per year in U.S. tech & IT occupations through 2034 Bureau of Labor StatisticsImplication - The volume is there—jobs exist—but many are not entry-level or accessible.* Reports show that many grads (esp. CS grads) now face unemployment rates over 6% — double some liberal arts majors The Economic TimesImplication - It's a disruption: even in “hot” fields, grads aren't guaranteed jobs.* Indications that tech postings are down ~36% vs. pre-pandemic levels RedditImplication - The number of roles overall has contracted, increasing competition.Why This Gap Is Widening * Raising experience bars: Companies prefer safer bets — hiring those with track records, rather than investing in freshers. (Data: experience requirement rising)* Risk aversion & cost of training: Startup budgets and corporate HR often don't want or can't afford ramp-up time for newcomers.* AI & automation's shadow: • Some entry-level tasks (simple code, scripts, basic data cleaning) are increasingly tackled by AI/ML tools, reducing demand for junior labor. • This doesn't eliminate the need for human developers — but shifts the requirements higher.* Mismatch of curriculum & industry needs: Education sometimes lags behind tech trends. Graduates might know older languages but not the niche frameworks or cloud / ML / architecture knowledge companies now expect.* Selective hiring & “brand bias”: Companies often prioritize grads from elite universities or known tech schools, exacerbating inequality.* Market cycles & contraction: When the tech bubble deflates or macroeconomic headwinds rise, companies cut or freeze junior hiring first.What Grads / Postgrads Can Do * Build a portfolio of real-world projects • Open-source contributions, personal apps, data projects, internships—even unpaid or side work. • Projects that solve real problems, not toy examples.* Learn the in-demand skills & tools • Cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP), ML/AI basics, infrastructure, modern frameworks (e.g. React, Node.js), DevOps tools. • Certifications, bootcamps, micro-credentials. • Embrace continuous learning—because tech evolves.* Target smaller companies, startups, non-tech firms • These roles may have lower brand prestige but offer more flexibility and opportunities to learn. • Many “non-tech” companies need developers for automation, internal dashboards, ML, etc.* Network aggressively & find mentors • Use LinkedIn, meetups, hackathons. • Reach out to people in your niche, ask for code reviews, mock interviews, advice.* Be flexible in location / remote work • Don't confine your job search to top-tier cities only. Remote roles open more doors. • Be open to contract / freelance gigs to build experience.* Show results, not credentials • In interviews, emphasize outcomes, metrics, and problem-solving over “courses taken.” • Demonstrate how your work impacted something, however small.* Consider non-traditional entry paths • Apprenticeships, technical residencies, bootcamp-plus internships. • Some tech fellowships let you “earn while learning.”What Institutions & Industry Must DoTo make systemic change, certain players must act:* Universities / colleges: • Update curricula quicker; partner with industry; offer more work-integrated learning programs. • Bridge the gap between theory and current tools.* Tech companies / recruiters: • Re-evaluate job descriptions: reduce arbitrary thresholds (years of experience, brand school). • Build robust junior hire programs; commit to “grow-your-own” talent. • Use transparency in hiring pipelines (publish how many fresh grads hired).* Government / policy makers: • Incentivize companies to hire entry-level talent (tax credits, subsidies for training). • Support tech education & apprenticeships.To conclude, The tech industry can't thrive if new talent is blocked at the door. To preserve innovation, companies must open pathways; graduates must be strategic about learning and positioning themselves.That is all for this week.

Sometimes the best lessons come from losing something you thought you needed. When Karen lost her Facebook page and realized it wasn't the end of the world, it sparked a bigger conversation about how we approach social media strategy. The truth is, most of us are maintaining profiles on platforms that aren't moving the needle while scrambling to keep up with whatever trendy app just launched. In this episode, we get real about multi-channel social media strategy and why quality beats quantity every single time. We explore why different audiences live on different platforms, and why expecting one channel to do everything for everyone is a recipe for mediocre results. This isn't about abandoning social media — it's about using it strategically, focusing your energy where it actually matters, and showing up consistently in the places where your audience is already paying attention. Sometimes letting go is the most strategic move you can make.

There seems to be an ironic discordance among folks that, let's just say, didn't share Charlie Kirk's points of view. They claim that ‘it's time to move on' even when faced with a vigil being held by co-workers. Such was the case of the US House of Representatives minority party leader Hakeem Jeffries who, when asked why he didn't attend a Congressional vigil quipped; “I had a meeting.” Or take combative positions like Virginia Speaker Don Scott who responded to Governor Youngkin who echoed a question we asked on these pages. “Is Abigail Spanberger going to denounce the ‘Nazi' comment made by one of her supports, Chesterfield School Board Member ‘Dot' Heffron. Scott's social media response has since been edited but the original still exists and reads: “Spare us the sanctimonious selective outrage — you should be ashamed of yourself. You said nothing when a sitting GOP member of the Va House of Delegates said ‘Democrats killed [Charlie] Kirk' — a blatant lie that was never corrected even after learning a Trump supporter actually killed him. Thank God, this Governor and his hateful politics will be gone in 120 days.” The edited version now reads; “…. a blatant lie that was never corrected even after learning he was shot by a man from a family of Trump supporters.” Certainly much better. The member of the House he was referring to was Delegate Nick Freitas who posted “the other side murdered him” Delegate Freitas joins us to take us much further into this and what needs to happen next.

Celebrities attending the Emmys revealed their shameful ignorance about the Middle East this week, and conservative commentators exploited Charlie Kirk's assassination to spread anti-Israel conspiracy theories.Education is the best ammunition to silence the mounting conspiracy theories and rising anti-Jewish hatred in America. Find out how. Tune in now.
In this episode of the Low Meins Asylum Show, I dive into the recent shooting of Charlie Kirk and the outrage surrounding it. While his death is tragic, I break down why the media and certain communities are framing him as a “great man” while ignoring the damage he caused with his rhetoric. From his statements against LGBTQ+ rights, his attacks on immigrants, to his dismissals of civil rights progress, Kirk left behind a legacy of division. I also compare the public reaction to his death with other tragedies like the ongoing devastation in Gaza and the recent political assassinations in Minnesota where the loss of life and violence received far less attention. This episode is about calling out double standards, recognizing all victims of violence equally, and not sanitizing harmful legacies just because someone has passed away. Tune in for a raw, unfiltered take on how we grieve, who we uplift, and why consistency matters.
Institutional CRE investing: A market run by allocation math – and uncertainty My podcast/YouTube guest today is Greg MacKinnon, Director of Research at the Pension Real Estate Association (PREA). PREA represents the institutional real estate community - think pension funds, sovereign wealth funds, endowments, and other fiduciaries managing hundreds of billions on behalf of millions of beneficiaries. These are the investors who typically allocate to real estate as part of their overall investment portfolios and who set the tone for how capital flows through the entire real estate market. Greg explains how while institutional real estate remains a roughly 10% sleeve in diversified institutional portfolios, the number matters less than the mechanics behind it. When equities rally and private values fall, the real estate slice shrinks—creating a theoretical bid to “rebalance” back to target. In practice, that bid has been clogged by a fund-recycling problem: closed-end vehicles haven't been returning capital as quickly because exits have slowed, which leaves investors waiting for distributions before recommitting. Until that dam breaks more broadly, new capital formation into private real estate remains inconsistent across strategies and managers. Office: price discovery by compulsion Institutional portfolios built in a world where office was a core holding are still working through the repricing. Unlevered office values are down on the order of ~40% from pre-COVID peaks nationally; with leverage, many positions are effectively wiped out, explaining why owners resist selling and why trades are scarce. That stasis is ending as lenders tire of “extend and pretend,” loan maturities arrive, and forced decisions accelerate. The practical question for CIOs isn't simply “hold or sell” but how fast to harvest, return, and re-underwrite risk elsewhere. Expect more office volume but much of it distress-driven rather than conviction buying. The rate cut mirage: CRE runs on growth and the 10-year Market chatter obsesses over the next Fed move. Institutional capital takes a broader view. The cost of capital that matters for underwriting – term debt, cap-rate anchoring, discount rates – is tethered more to the 10-year Treasury than the overnight Fed funds rate. A policy cut can coexist with a higher 10-year if inflation risk re-prices, blunting any “cuts are bullish” narrative. More importantly: CRE performance tracks the real economy's breadth and durability. Historically, rising interest rates often coincide with strong growth and healthy real estate. Falling rates tend to arrive with deceleration, which is why “cuts” are not automatically good news for NOI or values. Underwrite your forward cash flows, not the headline. Policy risk is now an underwriting line item Global capital has long treated the U.S. as the default safe harbor. That advantage compresses when macro policy feels unpredictable – tariffs one week, reversals the next, and public debate over central-bank independence. Some non-U.S. allocators have simply chosen not to live with the noise premium, shifting incremental dollars to Europe. Domestic institutions aren't exiting the U.S., but the signal is clear: political-economy volatility now shows up as a higher hurdle rate, more conditional investment committee approvals, and a stronger preference for managers who can navigate policy in both research and structuring. Where the money is actually going Facing actuarial return targets and a cloudy macro, institutions are tilting toward “where alpha lives now”: Digital and specialized industrial: data centers; cold storage; and industrial outdoor storage (IOS) – think secured yards for heavy equipment – where supply is constrained and tenant demand is need-based. Housing adjacencies: single-family rental, manufactured housing, student housing, and seniors housing, plus targeted affordable strategies that can layer policy incentives with operating expertise. Selective core logistics and resilient multifamily: still investable but crowded; institutions need an edge in submarket selection, cost basis, or operations to meet return hurdles. Themes in common: operational complexity that deters industry tourists, local expertise that differentiates underwriting, and cash flows less correlated to the office cycle. The portfolio is changing: from “real estate” to “real assets” Many large investors are reorganizing how they bucket risk. Instead of a hard 10% “real estate” sleeve, they're adopting either a broader real assets mandate (real estate + infrastructure + sometimes commodities) or a private markets sleeve (real estate + private credit + private equity). The goal is flexibility: tilt to where relative value is best without tripping governance wires each time. This structural shift makes it easier for a head of Real Assets to move dollars from, say, mid-risk equity in apartments to long-duration infrastructure when spreads and growth argue for it, and to rotate back when underwriting improves. It's a quiet change with large implications for which managers get funded and when. “Institutional quality” is a culture, not a class of building Too many sponsors use “institutional quality” as shorthand for a gleaming asset. Institutions define quality as process: governance, repeatability, controls, reporting cadence, and audit-ready data, plus the discipline to say “no” when the numbers don't clear the bar. That's why a best-in-class niche specialist (e.g., Southwest self-storage or cold-chain) can attract blue-chip LPs without owning a single skyline trophy. Conversely, a sponsor with a glossy deck but ad-hoc reporting will struggle to cross the institutional threshold even in “prime” locations. What to do now (operators and allocators) Own the 10-year, not the headline. Build your assumptions around the 10-year Treasury and the yield curve, not the Fed's short-term rate projections. Stress cash flows under slower growth. Lean into complex operations. Data centers, IOS, cold storage, seniors housing, where capability barriers protect yield. Be distribution-aware. If you're raising from institutions, understand their recycling constraints; design pacing and structures that fit their liquidity reality. Institutionalize the back office. Reporting, controls, and data pipelines are capital-raising assets. Treat them as such. Bottom line: allocations still want to be filled, but the bar is higher and the path is narrower. Those who combine operating edge with institutional process will take disproportionate share when the dam finally breaks. n.b. Greg and I take a detailed look at what ‘institutional' real estate really means; how it's defined, structured, and operates. It's worth tuning in so you can separate fact from fiction the next time you see the term in a pitch deck. *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.

City Manager Brian Johnson joins host Rico Figliolini on Peachtree Corners Life for a practical update on projects shaping the city's next few years. He walks through the newly developed Simpsonwood Park master plan—designed to keep the park passive and natural while adding ADA-friendly access, renovated bathrooms, an updated chapel, selective forestry management, and a modest river overlook. Johnson also explains why the city is outsourcing maintenance of the Peachtree Parkway median so residents finally see consistent, five-day-a-week care despite legacy design constraints.The episode dives into traffic and road fixes at East Jones Bridge and 141 (longer turn lanes, better alignment, and a right-turn slip lane), the ESPLOST renewal on the ballot, and the last phase of the Waterside development—now tracking at roughly half the density initially allowed and focused on equity (for-sale) housing. With candid context on what's been approved or denied since cityhood, plus how extended-stay conversions and the Housing Authority factor in, this conversation is a clear, chart-backed look at how Peachtree Corners balances growth with character.Key takeawaysSimpsonwood Park will remain a passive park—no ballfields, pickleball, mountain biking, or major programming.Plan includes ADA-accessible paved paths, renovated bathrooms (including one closer to the river), resurfaced parking, and a chapel renovation.Selective forestry and wildlife/erosion work will improve long-term health of the park.City is outsourcing median maintenance on Peachtree Parkway; crews will be dedicated five days a week for mowing, edging, litter removal, and plant adjustments.Median design differs from Johns Creek (at-grade vs. raised), which has made upkeep harder; outsourcing addresses consistency and appearance.East Jones Bridge & 141: entrance realignment, longer left-turn stacking, and a right-turn slip lane to move traffic more safely and quickly.No municipal election this cycle for three council seats (no challengers qualified), but ESPLOST renewal is on the county ballot.Waterside final phase moves forward with for-sale (equity) units; overall buildout drops from up to 916 approved units to ~450.Post-2012 housing approvals show a measured approach—some apartment proposals approved, many reduced to townhomes or denied.Extended-stay hotel issues are being addressed, including a supervised conversion to efficiency units via the Housing Authority.Timestamp:(00:03:29) Simpsonwood Park master plan details and community input.(00:09:55) Renovation of chapel, bathrooms, and forestry management plans.(00:15:27) Outsourcing median maintenance on Peachtree Parkway.(00:24:27) Election update and ESPLOST renewal.(00:27:03) Waterside development's final phase and reduced density.(00:30:12) East Jones Bridge road improvements and traffic flow changes.(00:36:37) Housing trends, multifamily approvals, and denials over time.(00:42:41) Extended stay hotel conversions and housing authority oversight.(00:45:47) Balancing growth, community resistance, and long-term city planning.
Madlik Podcast – Torah Thoughts on Judaism From a Post-Orthodox Jew
Are there times were we should strive not to be present or in the moment? As we enter the month of Elul and approach the High Holidays, many of us instinctively tighten our grip on spiritual practices. We double down on prayer, intensify our focus, and strive for flawless kavanah (intention). But what if true holiness sometimes emerges when we loosen our hold? In this week's Torah portion, Ki Teitze, we encounter a surprising perspective on mitzvot (commandments) that challenges our assumptions about intentionality and control. Let's explore how embracing the unintentional might deepen our spiritual practice and transform our relationship with the Divine. Key Takeaways The nuanced approach to returning lost objects and when it's okay to "hide your eyes” How the agricultural law of forgotten sheaves (shichecha) relates to selective memory during the High Holidays The serendipitous nature of the bird's nest commandment and its character and environmental implications Timestamps [00:00:00] Holiness in forgetting and letting go [00:02:07] Rabbi joins from Italy [00:03:00] Announcements and upcoming live event [00:04:00] Returning lost objects in Deuteronomy [00:06:03] The subway lesson: looking away [00:09:00] Exceptions to returning lost items [00:12:00] The mitzvah of forgetting sheaves in the field [00:17:00] Selective memory and Rosh Hashanah [00:22:00] The bird's nest commandment [00:28:00] Wrapping up: intentional vs. unintentional holiness Links & Learnings Sign up for free and get more from our weekly newsletter https://madlik.com/ Safaria Source Sheet: https://www.sefaria.org/sheets/672300 Transcript here: https://madlik.substack.com/
It's easy to say we have faith in God until that faith confronts the parts of us we don't want to change. In this episode of Student of Life, we'll unpack the danger of selective faith: trusting God in the areas that feel safe while resisting Him where it costs us most. Real faith doesn't just comfort us it transforms us.
