Hello to you listening in Victoria, BC, CanadaLand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for a change up) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.My friend Michelle asked me something that made me stop and think. She said, "You always end Story Prompt Friday with 'Write that story!' But you believe in the music of the spoken word - telling stories out loud - why not say that?Michelle knows me well.Here's the thing about our voices - they carry magic that our fingers can't capture. When you write your story, you're having a conversation with yourself. It's a lovely and necessary place to begin. But when you speak your story out loud, something different happens. Something powerful.Your voice carries the rhythm of your heartbeat. It holds the catch in your throat when you remember something tender. It speeds up when you get excited and slows down when the moment matters most. These aren't just sounds - they're the music of your experience.Think about the last time someone told you a story that made you lean in closer. Was it their words alone? Or was it the way their voice dropped to an intimate whisper? The way they paused right before the surprise? The way their whole face lit up when they got to the good part?When you tell your story out loud, you're not just sharing information. You're sharing yourself. Your voice carries your personality, your emotions, your truth in ways that words on a page simply cannot.Here's what I've learned in thirty years of teaching people to tell their stories: most of us have forgotten how powerful our voices are. We text instead of call. We email instead of visit. We've become quiet.Your story needs your voice. It needs the way you say certain words. It needs your pauses, your emphasis, your breath. These aren't extras - they're essential story ingredients.When you stand up and tell your story, you're claiming space in the world. You're saying, "This happened. This matters. I matter." That's not just storytelling - that's courage.And here's the magical surprise: when you tell your story out loud, you hear it differently than when you write it. You discover new meanings. You find the parts that will move your listeners. You learn which moments need more time and which ones can move faster.Your voice teaches you about your own story.Your stories are waiting for the full power of your voice. They're waiting for the music of the spoken word only you can make.So yes, write your stories. But don't stop there. Find someone to tell them to, a loved one, an animal companion, even to yourself as you're walking outside or working in your garden. That's where I practice! What's important is that you have a story to share.Give others that gift. Give yourself that gift. If you need a hand up I can help. Email me at info@quartermoonstoryarts.net to arrange for a no obligation Discovery Call or reach out to me ("Wyzga on Words") on Substack. I'd love the opportunity to work with you!

A senior state employee filed a lawsuit last week alleging that Governor Jared Polis has violated state law by cooperating with a subpoena for information from ICE. Anti-ICE protesters have been marching in Denver's streets all week and Polis was already in hot water with Democrats after he set his personal record for vetoing bills, so why would he do this now? David Seligman is a candidate for state attorney general and the executive director of Towards Justice, a non-profit law firm that just joined the lawsuit against Polis, and he's on with host Bree Davies to break down the case and try to imagine what the governor is thinking. After we recorded this conversation, we heard back from Governor Polis's spokesperson. She send us the following statement: “The Governor is committed to preventing the illegal exploitation and trafficking of children. This lawsuit is unfortunately delaying an investigation focused on looking into child exploitation and trafficking. The decision to respond to this federal subpoena to support the investigation into crimes against vulnerable minors was carefully considered in accordance with Colorado law, which allows for sharing information to support timely criminal investigations. Keeping kids safe is a top priority, child exploitation is a deeply concerning issue, and has no place in our state. Complying with this federal subpoena meets the requirements laid out in state law and providing this information is in service of investigating and preventing criminal activity, which Governor Polis is deeply committed to.” What do you think about this lawsuit? Or about the anti-ICE protests playing out in Denver right now? We want to hear from you!

In this podcast you'll meet my brother Noah Teicher, and my nephew Colton Teicher. I have two younger brothers, but my brother Noah (the middle child) has two boys who had a rare disease. And we talk about their journey from having a rare disease to being cured. Noah and Colton talk about their journey with the Children's Organ Transplant Association (COTA). Rick Lofgren has been the non profits president for more than two decades. Rick helps raise millions each year to support families with the cost for transplantation. In addition to all he does, Rick is married with kids of his own.I learned about Rick, from my brother. My nephews Colton and Caden had a rare disease called Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD). CGD is passed down through the mother, only to sons, not daughters. CGD causes frequent and life-threatening infections because their immune system can't fight off certain harmful bacteria and fungi. My nephew's mother is the carrier. Women do are only carriers of the genetic disease, only boys have the genetic diesase. The great news: there is a cure. Both my nephews were cured. About my brother and nephew. Noah works for Abbott Laboratories as a district manager across several states and has three kids, and a stepson wife his wife Lisa. My nephew Colton is a Patient Care Coordinator at a specialty Pharmacy in Detroit. Colton is an advocate for his disease and the rare community.This is a reminder that it's good to share information because after my brother told me about COTA, I connected with Rick at COTA. The Bonnell Foundation and COTA are now partners helping people who need funds for transplants, and all that it entails.Colton will be post transplant for three years on September 3rd, 2021Caden will be post transplant on December 16th, 2022To connect with Colton: coltonteicher@yahoo.comTo connect with Noah: noahteicher@yahoo.comFor information about COTA: https://cota.org/get-started/ Please like, subscribe, and comment on our podcasts!Please consider making a donation: https://thebonnellfoundation.org/donate/The Bonnell Foundation website:https://thebonnellfoundation.orgEmail us at: thebonnellfoundation@gmail.com Thanks to our sponsors:Vertex: https://www.vrtx.comViatris: https://www.viatris.com/en
In this conversation, Lorna discusses the challenges of sharing health information with others who may not be ready or interested in receiving it. She shares a personal story of someone who brought healthy snacks to a friend's house, only to be met with resistance and dismissal. Lorna emphasizes the importance of understanding that not everyone is on the same journey or ready to make changes. She encourages you to be mindful of how to share information and to respect others' choices. The key takeaway is to approach conversations about health and wellness with empathy and understanding.JOIN MY ROOT & REWIRE MEMBERSHIP!CONNECT WITH LORNA:---> Instagram @lorna_bingeeatingcoach---> Tiktok @lorna_bingeeatingcoach---> DOWNLOAD FREE GUIDE: Top 3 Tips To Stop Binge Eating---> Join my private Facebook group Ditch The Diet & End Binge Eating Support Group

"Be true to you and let them talk." - Wendy This week on Wrench Turners Podcast BDC Specialist and Trainer Serial Student in Automotive and people Podcast Host of The Human Side of AI BDC Angels LLC owner,
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Post-mortem on Wytham Abbey, published by WythamAbbey on April 1, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. In response to requests for a post-mortem on the Wytham Abbey project, we[1] have decided to publish this in full. This EA Forum exclusive will include a blow-by-blow account of the decision-making process. TL;DR: We determined that the project was too controversial. The primary source of controversy was the name, especially with regard to how to pronounce "Wytham". First some background. We decided to hold a brainstorming session to determine the best way forward for the project. This was held in Wytham Abbey, of course. We consider this brainstorming session to be a success, and reaped the benefits of having an " immersive environment which was more about exploring new ideas than showing off results was just very good for intellectual progress". When considering the name, we observed that some people pronounce it "with-ham". This is incorrect, however there was an entire breakout room in Wytham Abbey given over to discussing this pronunciation. Most members of the Wytham Abbey team considered it offensive, because we all have broad moral circles and object to things being "with ham". We also considered changing the name to "Wythout-ham", however anything that foregrounded ham was simply unappealing to many people in our team. One person, a certain Hamilton B. Urglar[2] proposed that the caterers might bring in some ham immediately so everyone could try some, just to make sure we were right to be opposed to it. Someone else threatened to put a post on the forum entitled "Sharing Information about Hamilton Urglar". It all got a bit tense, but then the Hamburglar offered to buy vegan burgers for everyone. Nobody was really reassured by this until he offered to provide screenshot evidence that the burgers had, indeed, been bought; provide a 200 page document justifying his actions; and put it on the EA Forum together with pictures of Wytham Abbey. There then followed a breakout session dedicated to the pronunciation "White-ham". One member of the project team proposed changing the spelling of Wytham to "White-ham" to avoid further confusion.[3] Another person thought this was stupid, and said we may as well change the name to "Blackham Abbey". We needed some more time in the immersive environment of Wytham Abbey, but we finally concluded that: " Blackham is a more stupid name than White-ham or Wytham". Someone wrote this sentence on a blackboard. Thanks in no small part to the immersive environment of the glorious abbey, we harmoniously came to the conclusion that "We like this sentence and think it is true". Someone then suggested that it should have been written on a whiteboard instead of a blackboard. Then people started arguing. All hell broke loose. After further arguing, it seems that comparing "Blackham" to "Whiteham" was more controversial than any of us realised. Who knew?! As a result, the EV board decided to oust Wytham Abbey from its position in the portfolio. It did not seem wise to foreground all the controversies at the heart of our decision-making process, so the board simply stated that Wytham Abbey was "not consistently candid in its communications with the board, hindering the board's ability to exercise its responsibilities". Unfortunately, there then followed a sustained campaign with the rallying cry "Effective Ventures is nothing without its castles"[4], and half the EV board got sacked, and Wytham Abbey got reinstated. The End.[5] [6] ^ We have carefully avoided specifying who we mean by "we". For more details, see footnote 6. ^ Hamilton B. Urglar is sometimes known as the Hamburglar, and also sometimes known simply as "Ham". Some might argue that this biases him to be more favourable to ham. The Hamburglar argued that he could counter all the...
TakeawaysHeather Cooper's background in education and her love for reading and storytelling have influenced her approach to tech writing and content creation.Visual communication is a powerful tool for breaking down complex information and making it accessible to a wide range of audiences.AI has the potential to revolutionize education by providing personalized learning experiences and supplementing traditional teaching methods.Educators should embrace AI as a tool to enhance learning and provide additional support to students, rather than viewing it as a form of cheating.Heather emphasizes the importance of empathy, adaptability, and resilience in navigating different fields and learning new skills. Twitter was a great platform for Heather to learn how to condense ideas and write effectively.Compelling titles, hooks, and images are essential for grabbing people's attention and conveying the main idea.Heather curates and shares information using various tools, such as summary tools and AI platforms.She aims to make these tools accessible to regular people and help them navigate the overwhelming amount of information available.Heather explores different art styles using AI models and emphasizes the importance of understanding the techniques and vocabulary associated with each style.She encourages others to start their projects and not wait for the perfect time, as tomorrow is never promised.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background01:27 Heather's Journey and Approach to Education04:12 Transition to Writing and Creativity07:02 Learning Coding and Tech Writing09:01 Using Visual Content and AI in Education13:47 Heather's Superpower17:13 Applying Skills and Mindset to AI19:14 Overcoming Hurdles in AI Education23:18 Bringing People Together with AI28:02 Curating and Processing Information29:06 Sharing Information and Tools36:03 Organizing and Managing Information39:01 Creating and Organizing AI Artwork40:37 Prompt Creation and Exploration42:20 Analyzing Prompts and Effects43:48 Using Emojis as Prompts45:11 Testing Prompts on Different Generators46:07 Combining Art and Mechanics47:31 Exploring Different Perspectives and Lenses48:27 Applying Traditional Photography Techniques to AI Art49:21 Expanding Vocabulary and Language Use50:26 Embracing Change and Learning New Skills51:17 Don't Wait, Just Get Started53:46 Raving About Heather's YouTube Platform56:18 Where to Find Heather's WorkResourcesVisually AI Newsletter by HeatherVisually AI YouTube ChannelHeather on Twitter/X

Recently, Ben Pace wrote a well-intentioned blog post mostly based on complaints from 2 (of 21) Nonlinear employees who 1) wanted more money, 2) felt socially isolated, and 3) felt persecuted/oppressed. Of relevance, one has accused the majority of her previous employers, and 28 people of abuse - that we know of. She has accused multiple people of threatening to kill her and literally accused an ex-employer of murder. Within three weeks of joining us, she had accused five separate people of abuse: not paying her what was promised, controlling her romantic life, hiring stalkers, and other forms of persecution. We have empathy for her. Initially, we believed her too. We spent weeks helping her get her “nefarious employer to finally pay her” and commiserated with her over how badly they mistreated her. Then she started accusing us of strange things.

How did Ben get so much wrong?(12:14) Ben admitted in his post that he was warned in private by multiple of his own sources that Alice was untrustworthy and told outright lies. One credible person told Ben Alice makes things up.(20:35) Alice has similarities to Kathy Forth, who, according to Scott Alexander, was “a very disturbed person” who, multiple people told him, “had a habit of accusing men she met of sexual harassment. They all agreed she wasnt malicious, just delusional.” As a community, we do not have good mechanisms in place to protect people from false accusations.(23:41) Why didn't Ben do basic fact-checking to see if their claims were true?

(0:12:16) - Protecting Against Fake Restraining Orders (7 Minutes) This chapter explores the use of fake restraining orders as a strategic tool in high-conflict custody battles.

(0:19:03) - Legal Rights and Social Media Impact (5 Minutes) This chapter explores the challenges of co-parenting and the control issues that can arise when one parent withholds access to their children. It emphasizes the importance of establishing legal custody rights, especially for unmarried couples, to avoid being at the mercy of the other parent. The chapter also addresses the use of social media as a tool for manipulation and conflict between co-parents, advising against publicly sharing personal grievances and behaviors that could negatively impact a custody case. Effective communication and boundaries are highlighted as essential in co-parenting relationships.

Bonnie also discusses the use of behavior orders to regulate negative behavior between co-parents and the consequences of violating them. The key takeaway is to prioritize the well-being of the children in these situations. To connect with Bonnie, you can find her on various social media platforms under LJ Law LV.

Selene Yeager is an elite athlete who started professionally competing at 40. She's also a Health & fitness writer who lives what she writes as a NASM certified trainer, USA Cycling coach, Pn1 certified nutrition coach, pro licensed off-road racer, and All-American Ironman triathlete and content creator for Feisty Media. Selene is grounded and into her own zone and power, Post Menopause. But it didn't start off like that. Perimenopause was a deeply confusing time to her because, like so many of us, it caught her unaware, She lost muscle seemingly overnight, her joints started aching like never before and her sleep became unusually erratic. She is keen to share as much information about this time of life as possible and to make sure that we all do the same in order to take the shock, confusion and fear out of it. We must share all the information from night sweats to vaginal dryness and everything in between. In this episode we discuss the changing landscape of elite endurance sports - spoiler alert: more mature women are competing and they're winning! We talk about new studies emerging on women that are relevant to hormonal health, muscle health and brain health and one that has just dropped on low carb availability: could you be sensitive to carbohydrate deprivation? Is intermittent fasting or low-carb dieting not feeling good to you? And why should we exercise after all? You can find Selene on IG @FitChick3, on https://seleneyeager.contently.com and if you haven't found it yet - listen to Hit Play Not Pause, you're in for a treat.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Sharing Information About Nonlinear, published by Ben Pace on September 7, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Epistemic status: Once I started actively looking into things, much of my information in the post below came about by a search for negative information about the Nonlinear cofounders, not from a search to give a balanced picture of its overall costs and benefits. I think standard update rules suggest not that you ignore the information, but you think about how bad you expect the information would be if I selected for the worst, credible info I could share, and then update based on how much worse (or better) it is than you expect I could produce. (See section 5 of this post about Mistakes with Conservation of Expected Evidence for more on this.) This seems like a worthwhile exercise for at least non-zero people to do in the comments before reading on. (You can condition on me finding enough to be worth sharing, but also note that I think I have a relatively low bar for publicly sharing critical info about folks in the EA/x-risk/rationalist/etc ecosystem.) tl;dr: If you want my important updates quickly summarized in four claims-plus-probabilities, jump to the section near the bottom titled "Summary of My Epistemic State". When I used to manage the Lightcone Offices, I spent a fair amount of time and effort on gatekeeping - processing applications from people in the EA/x-risk/rationalist ecosystem to visit and work from the offices, and making decisions. Typically this would involve reading some of their public writings, and reaching out to a couple of their references that I trusted and asking for information about them. A lot of the people I reached out to were surprisingly great at giving honest references about their experiences with someone and sharing what they thought about someone. One time, Kat Woods and Drew Spartz from Nonlinear applied to visit. I didn't know them or their work well, except from a few brief interactions that Kat Woods seems high-energy, and to have a more optimistic outlook on life and work than most people I encounter. I reached out to some references Kat listed, which were positive to strongly positive. However I also got a strongly negative reference - someone else who I informed about the decision told me they knew former employees who felt taken advantage of around things like salary. However the former employees reportedly didn't want to come forward due to fear of retaliation and generally wanting to get away from the whole thing, and the reports felt very vague and hard for me to concretely visualize, but nonetheless the person strongly recommended against inviting Kat and Drew. I didn't feel like this was a strong enough reason to bar someone from a space - or rather, I did, but vague anonymous descriptions of very bad behavior being sufficient to ban someone is a system that can be straightforwardly abused, so I don't want to use such a system. Furthermore, I was interested in getting my own read on Kat Woods from a short visit - she had only asked to visit for a week. So I accepted, though I informed her that this weighed on my mind. (This is a link to the decision email I sent to her.) (After making that decision I was also linked to this ominous yet still vague EA Forum thread, that includes a former coworker of Kat Woods saying they did not like working with her, more comments like the one I received above, and links to a lot of strongly negative Glassdoor reviews for Nonlinear Cofounder Emerson Spartz's former company "Dose". Note that more than half of the negative reviews are for the company after Emerson sold it, but this is a concerning one from 2015 (while Emerson Spartz was CEO/Cofounder): "All of these super positive reviews are being commissioned by upper management. That is the first thing you should know ...

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Thoughts on sharing information about language model capabilities, published by Paul Christiano on July 31, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. Core claim I believe that sharing information about the capabilities and limits of existing ML systems, and especially language model agents, significantly reduces risks from powerful AI - despite the fact that such information may increase the amount or quality of investment in ML generally (or in LM agents in particular). Concretely, I mean to include information like: tasks and evaluation frameworks for LM agents, the results of evaluations of particular agents, discussions of the qualitative strengths and weaknesses of agents, and information about agent design that may represent small improvements over the state of the art (insofar as that information is hard to decouple from evaluation results). Context ARC Evals currently focuses on evaluating the capabilities and limitations of existing ML systems, with an aim towards understanding whether or when they may be capable enough to pose catastrophic risks. Current evaluations are particularly focused on monitoring progress in language model agents. I believe that sharing this kind of information significantly improves society's ability to handle risks from AI, and so I am encouraging the team to share more information. However this issue is certainly not straightforward, and in some places (particularly in the EA community where this post is being shared) I believe my position is controversial. I'm writing this post at the request of the Evals team to lay out my views publicly. I am speaking only for myself. I believe the team is broadly sympathetic to my position, but would prefer to see a broader and more thorough discussion about this question. I do not think this post presents a complete or convincing argument for my beliefs. The purpose is mostly to outline and explain the basic view, at a similar level of clarity and thoroughness to the arguments against sharing information (which have mostly not been laid out explicitly). Accelerating LM agents seems neutral (or maybe positive) I believe that accelerating LM agents increases safety through two channels: LM agents are an unusually safe way to build powerful AI systems. Existing concerns about AI takeover are driven primarily by scaling up black-box optimization, and increasing our reliance on human-comprehensible decompositions with legible interfaces seems like it significantly improves safety. I think this is a large effect size and is suggested by several independent lines of reasoning. To the extent that existing LM agents are weak it is due to exceptionally low investment. This is creating "dry tinder:" as incentives rise that investment will quickly rise and so low-hanging fruit will be picked. While there is some dependence on serial time, I think that increased LM investment now will significantly slow down progress later. I will discuss these mechanisms in more detail in the rest of this section. I also think that accelerating LM agents will drive investment in improving and deploying ML systems, and so can reduce time available to react to risk. As a result I'm ambivalent about the net effect of improving the design of LM agents - my personal tentative guess is that it's positive, but I would be hesitant about deliberately accelerating LM agents to improve safety (moreover I think this would be a very unleveraged approach to improving safety and would strongly discourage anyone from pursuing it). But this means that I am significantly less concerned about information about LM agent capabilities accelerating progress on LM agents. Given that I am already positively disposed towards sharing information about ML capabilities and limitations despite the risk of acceleration, I am particularly positive about sharing...

Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest running podcast in compliance. In this episode, I am joined by Sam Tate partner at RPC. Sam is a co-author of the leading UK anti-corruption compliance textbook “Bribery: a Compliance Handbook”. He works closely with a number of FTSE 100, international and privately owned entities and individuals in relation to financial crime proceedings, investigations, and practical crime prevention programs. He recently led the settlement on the ground-breaking 11th and 12th UK DPA's and conducted the independent investigation for the Financial Times of allegations made by Wirecard against its reporters. In this episode, they discuss the proposed Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill and how it could have a major effect for companies not based in the U.K. The bill includes verification for all new and existing registered companies, directors, and persons, as well as provisions making it easier for the National Crime Agency. Sam Tate predicts that this will result in more focused prosecutions than Deferred Prosecution Agreements, although it should make settlements easier. This collaboration between the UK and the U.S. will be a lasting legacy of our time.

"So if you have a fraud offense, then a corporate doing probably doing any business in the UK, or having a presence in the business in the UK, so it could be one in the US, it could be one anywhere in the world, anywhere in the world with presence business in the UK, would be corporately criminally liable if it failed to prevent fraud unless it had a series of adequate procedures in place to prevent that." 2. "It's something we call the 'guidance in mind' test. They are the brains of the company and they've got to be involved for the corporates to be criminally live criminally liable." 3. "Bribery is defined in in our legislation as offering something with intention of causing another person to improperly perform their duties. Fraud takes a few forms, worth essentially is deceit of one kind or another, sometimes with the abuse of trust or over opposition to trust." 4. "It's not entirely clear what that is because we haven't have ton of cases. But it's a registered office, a large part of your business, or even a smaller part of your business, a trading arm, perhaps doing your accounts here. Probably something a little bit more than trading on the UK stock exchange, but not much more is enough to have a part of your business in the UK.""

This is number two in a series of six podcast episodes I am making about content creation for content marketing for the medical practice or medical practitioner. share info or solve a problem tell a story re-imagine content do one thing well keep a schedule For each of the next five episodes I am going to work down the list and break down each principle or concept as I understand it. These concepts are not original thoughts of mine, just a short list of five things I thought could help me frame what, why, and how to create online content for “content marketing. Marketing is finding our market, our niche, those people who need our services, and letting them know who we are, what we do, and where to find us. The idea in online content marketing is to put stuff—websites, blogs, videos, podcasts, etc.— out into the digital world that helps your market learn about your expertise and creates a bond and a trust that leads someone to become your patient or customer. We should see content marketing as a positive. It allows those people who need us to find us. And it helps those who don't need us or who we can't service to look elsewhere. If we are a doctor or a medical practice wanting to dive in to online content creation all we have to do to get started is to ask ourselves, what information do I have that I can share, and what problems can I help solve with whatever content I create? If you are a urologist or a urology practice the answer is actually pretty easy. We are experts in kidney stones, enlarged prostates, bladder/prostate/kidney cancers, recurrent urinary tract infections, incontinence and voiding dysfunction and the list goes on. Pick one of those and start typing or hit record on some electronic device and then pick a platform where you are going to put that out into the world.
