Podcasts about snapshots

At First Baptist Church in Kearney, Pastor Ken usually preaches through books of the Bible. So today we'll begin a brand new series through the book of 1 Samuel. Join Pastor Ken for this new series entitled "Snapshots of Sovereignty."

Food insecurity is a pressing topic these days as families are faced with rising costs and the uncertainty of government assistance. Kansas City is lucky to have Harvesters, who works to feed hungry people today and end hunger for tomorrow. They are facing challenges in meeting that mission, which leads to our conversation in today's episode. We're excited to talk with KC native Cierra Howe, the Special Projects Content Manager at Harvesters, The Community Food Network. Cierra leads social media, video production, Spanish-language communications, and storytelling across the organization. She is also a mom to two young boys, ages four and one.  In our conversation, we discuss: Cierra's journey into this work and how her role supports Harvesters' mission of feeding neighbors across Kansas City The challenges families face when seeking food assistance, especially language and cultural barriers- and why clear, culturally thoughtful communication matters so much How Harvesters has been affected by the federal government shutdown and delays in SNAP payments Cierra's hopes for the future and simple, meaningful ways you and your kids can get involved. Cierra Howe is the special projects content manager at Harvesters - The Community Food Network in Kansas City, Missouri, where she leads efforts in social media, video production, Spanish communications and storytelling. She also has a side photography business called Snapshots by Cie. Cierra is the mom of two young boys, 4 and 1, with big imaginations and wild spirits.

Story Transcript:Fr: Le ciel de Paris s'assombrissait rapidement en ce bel après-midi d'automne.En: The sky over Paris was rapidly darkening on this beautiful autumn afternoon.Fr: Des nuages lourds de pluie formaient un tapis gris au-dessus du célèbre fleuve de la Seine, créant une atmosphère intime et mélancolique.En: Clouds heavy with rain formed a gray carpet above the famous Seine River, creating a cozy and melancholic atmosphere.Fr: Emilien, un jeune homme pensif avec un carnet et un crayon à la main, s'était réfugié dans un café au bord de la rivière.En: Emilien, a thoughtful young man with a notebook and pencil in hand, had taken refuge in a café by the river.Fr: Ses yeux étaient souvent attirés vers l'extérieur, où les arbres perdaient leurs feuilles d'or.En: His eyes were often drawn outside, where the trees were losing their golden leaves.Fr: Le café, chaleureux avec ses meubles en bois et ses effluves de café fraîchement moulu, était un abri parfait contre la pluie qui menaçait à chaque instant.En: The café, warm with its wooden furniture and the aroma of freshly ground coffee, was a perfect shelter against the rain that threatened at any moment.Fr: Les fenêtres embuées reflétaient une lumière douce et tamisée.En: The misted windows reflected a soft and subdued light.Fr: Emilien se perdait dans ses pensées, essayant de capter l'essence de l'automne à travers ses coups de crayon.En: Emilien lost himself in his thoughts, trying to capture the essence of autumn through his pencil strokes.Fr: Mais, la pluie incessante trouble sa concentration.En: But, the incessant rain troubled his concentration.Fr: Non loin, Fleur, une jeune femme dynamique avec un appareil photo autour du cou, poussait la porte du café.En: Not far away, Fleur, an energetic young woman with a camera around her neck, pushed open the door of the café.Fr: Elle était exaltée par cette journée, mais quelque peu frustrée.En: She was exhilarated by the day, but somewhat frustrated.Fr: La pluie imprévisible avait interrompu son projet photo.En: The unpredictable rain had interrupted her photo project.Fr: Elle cherchait une photo parfaite qui raconterait l'histoire de l'automne parisien.En: She was searching for the perfect photo that would tell the story of Parisian autumn.Fr: Assis à une table voisine, Emilien observait les allées et venues des autres clients.En: Sitting at a nearby table, Emilien observed the comings and goings of other customers.Fr: Son carnet ouvert, il croquait les détails d'une scène chaleureuse : un couple partageant un croissant, un étudiant absorbé par ses livres, un chien patient devant son maître.En: His open notebook captured the details of a warm scene: a couple sharing a croissant, a student absorbed in their books, a dog patiently waiting for its owner.Fr: Il s'arrêta en voyant Fleur, attiré par son énergie et sa passion évidente pour la photographie.En: He paused as he saw Fleur, drawn by her energy and evident passion for photography.Fr: Fleur remarqua les esquisses d'Emilien.En: Fleur noticed Emilien's sketches.Fr: Curieuse, elle s'approcha et engagea la conversation.En: Curious, she approached and started a conversation.Fr: "Tes dessins sont magnifiques," dit-elle en souriant.En: "Your drawings are beautiful," she said with a smile.Fr: Emile, surpris mais flatté, répondit timidement.En: Emilien, surprised but flattered, replied timidly.Fr: Ils échangèrent sur leurs passions respectives, découvrant un amour mutuel pour l'art et la ville qui les entourait.En: They exchanged words about their respective passions, discovering a mutual love for art and the city that surrounded them.Fr: La pluie cessa soudainement, et une vive lumière inonda le café.En: The rain suddenly stopped, and a bright light flooded the café.Fr: Fleur, inspirée par ce moment, leva son appareil et prit une photo d'Emilien en train de dessiner, capturant un instant où deux mondes se rencontraient.En: Fleur, inspired by this moment, lifted her camera and took a photo of Emilien while he was drawing, capturing a moment where two worlds met.Fr: Alors que le soleil se couchait, Emilien offrit à Fleur un de ses croquis, un geste qui scella une nouvelle amitié.En: As the sun set, Emilien offered Fleur one of his sketches, a gesture that sealed a new friendship.Fr: "Je t'enverrai la photo," promit-elle, joyeuse, en griffonnant son email sur un coin de papier.En: "I'll send you the photo," she promised joyfully, scribbling her email on a corner of paper.Fr: Ils sortirent ensemble du café, changeant.En: They left the café together, changed.Fr: Emilien, d'habitude si réservé, avait découvert le plaisir de la connexion humaine.En: Emilien, usually so reserved, had discovered the joy of human connection.Fr: Fleur trouva que les meilleures photos étaient souvent celles qui naissaient des rencontres inattendues.En: Fleur found that the best photos were often those born of unexpected encounters.Fr: Ainsi, dans la lumière dorée du jour déclinant, commençait une nouvelle histoire au bord de la Seine, une histoire où les talents se mêlaient et les destinées se croisaient au gré d'une pluie parisienne.En: Thus, in the golden light of the declining day, a new story began by the Seine, a story where talents intertwined and destinies crossed with the ebb and flow of a Parisian rain.

Hoy te cuento, en formato monólogo y sin rodeos, qué es ZFS y por qué cambió la forma de guardar y proteger datos. Veremos su modelo copy-on-write, snapshots y clones, checksums con autocorrección, pools (zpool, vdev), RAID-Z (1/2/3), compresión LZ4, deduplicación y cifrado nativo. Además, comparo ZFS con Btrfs, XFS y ext4 para que sepas cuándo elegir cada uno en Linux y FreeBSD (y dónde encaja TrueNAS). Cierro con ventajas, limitaciones, y buenas prácticas para que lo apliques con criterio en tu NAS o servidor.

professorjrod@gmail.comWhat keeps a business alive when the lights flicker, a server drops, or an ISP blinks? We pull back the curtain on practical resilience—how continuity planning, capacity, and clear runbooks turn chaos into a minor hiccup—then pressure-test the plan with drills, documentation, and ruthless honesty.We start by grounding COOP in the messy reality of people and places: cross-training gaps, pandemic downsizing, and the strain of return-to-office on infrastructure that never fully grew back. From there, we break down high availability without fluff—hot, warm, and cold sites, plus cloud recovery that scales on demand. Testing gets real with load and failover exercises, because hope is not a strategy. We go deep on clustering choices (active-active vs. active-passive), health checks, and the power stack that actually carries you through outages: dual PSUs, smart PDUs, UPS coverage, and generators that are not just installed but tested.Security on paper fails at the door, so we layer physical controls that work in the real world: lighting, sight lines, bollards, access vestibules, badges, biometrics, CCTV, alarms, and trained guards who can respond when seconds matter. We add deception technologies to slow attackers and capture valuable telemetry. A blunt backup story drives the point home—retention policies, daily verification, and restoration drills aren't optional. Snapshots enable quick rollback; off-site copies protect against building-level incidents; simple file naming saves hours under pressure. We even share personal lessons on NAS setups, cloud sync, and the small frictions that derail good intentions.If you care about uptime, user trust, and sleeping at night, this conversation gives you a blueprint: map critical services, set real RPO/RTO goals, diversify dependencies, practice failover, and verify backups every day. Subscribe, share with a teammate who owns “the pager,” and leave a review with your best resilience win—or the failure that taught you most.Support the showIf you want to help me with my research please e-mail me.Professorjrod@gmail.comIf you want to join my question/answer zoom class e-mail me at Professorjrod@gmail.comArt By Sarah/DesmondMusic by Joakim KarudLittle chacha ProductionsJuan Rodriguez can be reached atTikTok @ProfessorJrodProfessorJRod@gmail.com@Prof_JRodInstagram ProfessorJRod

How is it that we can feel unhappy when we see someone else happy? And what does that reveal about the condition of our mind and heart? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore envy through Shakespeare's words, Patrick Henry's warning, and Aghāsura's jealousy in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.12.   They discuss why resentment is a form of spiritual self-sabotage, how bhakti transforms envy into empathy, and why the cowherd boys' simple joy surpasses even the achievements of the greatest yogis.   Highlights include: • Shakespeare on envy: “O, how bitter…” • Patrick Henry's verdict: jealousy = the only vice with no pleasure • Aghāsura as cruelty and violence fueled by envy • Why fame is fickle, and why validation addiction cripples meditation • Snapshots of Vrindavan's joy: bugles, lunch bags, peacock feathers, and even sacred “sadness”   A lively mix of scripture, reflection, and humor—designed to help us see envy for what it is and train the heart toward genuine joy in others' happiness.

Episode 4 of our series around Pure's fundamental design principles dives into aspects of Pure's technology that drive realistic efficiency for users. This episode tackles capabilities most Storage professionals are familiar with - snapshots, efficiency metrics and adaptive flexible RAID. Pure learned from the challenges created by legacy architectures to build better versions of these features into our all-flash array portfolio. Hear about how Pure Storage's snapshot architecture focuses on instant, efficient, and immutable copies that serve both operational and security needs. Snapshots can be created instantly with no performance overhead and used for rapid recovery, cloning, or replication—each one functions as a “gold copy version” and maintains group consistency, enabling rollbacks to any point in time without dependencies or data duplication. Their design is tightly integrated with metadata, enabling efficient thin provisioning and consistent protection, while SafeMode extends these benefits by enforcing privileged access and retention policies for ransomware resilience. Around realistic efficiency metrics - we deliver transparent and realistic efficiency metrics by directly reporting space consumption trends and physical storage utilization, rather than relying solely on claims about thin provisioning or data reduction. Our user interface distinguishes between budgeted capacity, usable capacity, and used space, with a focus on showing only live user data (volumes and snapshots), and hiding internal system overhead, RAID overhead, and reclaimable space until critical thresholds are reached. Finally, we tackle RAID - Pure's RAID architecture is built for flash, utilizing a flexible, adaptive structure that never requires manual configuration while continuously ensuring optimal data protection and performance. Series Overview: Pure Storage's foundational approach to product engineering is guided by 15 architectural decisions that were established at the company's inception and have shaped both the technical and user experience across its product lines. These architectural choices were not made arbitrarily—they stem from a deliberate focus on simplicity, efficiency, and scalability, ensuring Pure could deliver storage solutions that break away from legacy complexity and enable continuous innovation without compromise. This series will guide viewers through all of the 15 principles, helping you understand why certain choices were made, how they impact your operations, and how they compare to other industry features and products. Join Pure Report podcast hosts Rob Ludeman, Andrew Miller, and J.D Wallace for this fun technical retrospective on Pure Storage.
