#129: The challenges of working with AI in single-player mode | Andrew Somervell (Co-founder @ Hamster)

When every individual on your team can suddenly move ten times faster, what stops them from moving ten times faster in ten different directions?In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Andrew Somervell, co-founder of Hamster, an AI-native workspace for product teams. Andrew and his co-founder built Taskmaster, the open-source tool that shipped plan mode before the major coding tools had it, and the question that kept coming back from users was how to take it to work. He explains why that pointed at a team problem rather than a tooling problem, and why he doesn't believe PMs want to live in a CLI.They explore the artifacts Andrew thinks a team actually needs, why he killed the PRD and what he ended up building in its place, the three meetings his team runs every week, and Ben's repeated pressing on the harder question underneath all of it: what genuinely changes when AI becomes multiplayer rather than a set of people each working alone with it.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Joseph Moore: Kiwi comedian on his new role with Saturday Night Live UK

Kiwi comedian Joseph Moore has been working behind the scenes as a writer on many iconic TV shows like Taskmaster, 7 Days and Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont-Spelling Bee - and he's hit the big time overseas. Earlier this year, he got chosen from hundreds of applicants to write for the new Saturday Night Live UK - and he's proven popular, with his 'Pub Song' skit going viral. He says he'd already moved to the UK with his wife, comedian and actress Laura Daniel, but he didn't expect to score something like this. "When we moved, we didn't know that SNL UK even in the works, let alone that it existed - but it was never going to happen...so to have landed here has surpassed anything that we were imagining."

It's our 7th year anniversary! So we celebrated like we do all of our milestones...by having a regular BFYTW game show. This week we are joined by Cimothy Jimothy as he stands in for Augie.SEVEN-YEAR-SPECIAL-ITCH Game 1 - Like Share Block (Stories from 2019) Like the normal LSB, but all of the news stories are from 2019. Story 1 - Fortune Teller Makes 2019 Predictions Using Asparagus https://www.vice.com/en/article/lady-who-uses-asparagus-to-predict-future-shares-her-premonitions-for-2019/ Story 2 - Florida Man Steals Over 70 Pool Floats, Take a Wild Guess Why https://www.fox7austin.com/news/florida-man-accused-of-stealing-more-than-70-floating-pool-toys-for-sex Story 3 - Tia Mowry Tries to Heal Her Twin With Breast Milk, Works? https://www.today.com/popculture/tamera-mowry-housley-drank-twin-sister-tia-s-breast-milk-t149266 Game 2 - Pop Culture Fight ClubIn honor of BFYTW's seven years of silliness and games, the question is - what is the best single moment of the last seven years of BFYTW? What one joke, news story, game or spontaneous event during recording of the past seven years has stuck in your mind as your favorite thing that has ever happened as a result of this show? You cannot choose a broad topic or theme (i.e., the friendships we made along the way) - this must be a single moment. Whichever of you convinces me that your favorite is the best wins the game and earns two episode points. Game 3 - Just Correlate Our favorite game of finding hidden connections is back! Our players will choose keyboard keys, CTRL, ALT, DEL, INSERT, HOME, and END - behind each one is a set of four clues, each has something in common. If they figure it out after one clue, 5 points, after two clues, 3 points, after three, 2 points, and if they need all four, 1 point. If the team/player doesn't figure it out, the other team/player gets a chance to steal with all four clues for one point. The player or team with the most points after all six keys have been chosen wins the game and gets three episode points.Promos NoDakNerd.Proudly Sponsored by Peace, Love, & Budhttps://www.plbud.com/WeedStockShoutouts to our Patrons; Mexi, Justin B, Kristin F ,Jeramey F ,Flaose, Todd, Jim, Flaos, Bridget F., David M., Dave A, Erin S, Donna/Colin Maggs,The GateLeapers, Kacey S., William M., Crunchie, DJ Xanthus, Crystal D., Jeff S, Gina W., 8Bit, Matt.Founding Members of @OddPodsMedia https://www.patreon.com/BFYTWShow Music by @KeroseneLetter and @Mexigun Our Merch Available by contacting us.

The US version of The Traitors also lands a huge multi-season renewal, while the BBC brings back The Walsh Sisters.Dave also takes a look at the new Goodnight Sweetheart novel Many Happy Returns, the latest HBO updates on The Last of Us, The White Lotus, Heated Rivalry, Big Little Lies and Harry Potter, plus the celebrity line-up heading into the castle for The Celebrity Traitors Series 2.The biggest story of the week sees the BBC formally beginning its search for the production company which will take charge of the next era of Doctor Who. Dave and Gray dig into the tender document, its planned 2028/29 return, the desire for a fresh perspective, and what the BBC might mean when it says it is not necessarily looking for another traditional showrunner.Lastly, there are previews of HBO Max family drama How to Survive Without Me, starring Ray Romano, Kaley Cuoco and Joshua Jackson, and ITV legal drama In Contempt, starring Jodie Whittaker.All that, plus the TV highlights to watch out for next week.Visit Geektown.co.uk for the latest UK TV air dates, renewals, cancellations, interviews, reviews and entertainment news.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/geektown.

Het nieuwe tv-seizoen is in volle gang. Het weekend zat vol met nieuwe programma’s en ook de talkshows zijn weer begonnen. Renze Klamer maakte zijn rentree aan een tafel op RTL 4. „Maar hij maakte bij zijn eerste aflevering meteen een kapitale fout”, oordeelt het panel van de AD Media Podcast. Het veelbesproken Wolven is eindelijk begonnen op NPO 1. Het BNNVara-programma dat erg lijkt op de RTL-show De Verraders is een co-productie met het commerciële Disney+ en ligt daarom onder een vergrootglas. Maar de vraag blijft: moest de NPO voor deze kopie van De Verraders in tijden van bezuinigingen geld uitgeven? RTL begon juist met Taskmaster van Arjen Lubach en Diederik Smit. Het is een format dat oorspronkelijk werd uitgezonden op de BBC. Angela de Jong vindt dat Lubach en RTL hiermee de kijker minacht. „Dit past zo niet bij hun publiek, dit is een NPO 3-programma.” De vlag gaat uit in de podcast, want Pierre van Hooijdonk vertrekt bij de NOS. Ook is er enthousiasme over de eerste aflevering van Beste zangers en is het panel zelfs lyrisch over het nieuwe seizoen van De Bauers. In het radiohoekje wordt stilgestaan bij de nieuwe ochtendshow op Radio 10 met Jan Willem Roodbeen en Jeroen Kijk in de Vegte. Dit en nog veel meer! Luisteren dus!

New episode out now! We watched the first episode of Deadloch, an Australian dark comedy mystery where two very different detectives are thrown together to solve a baffling serial murder case. We really liked how atmospheric it was, setting a very different tone which was then offset by the excellent and sharply hilarious writing. We discuss the two main characters and how they felt refreshingly unique in the mystery show landscape, loved the wacky small-town antics, think that female creators really know how to write nuanced and fleshed out relationships, and talk about how you can stereotype with love. Katy was clocked by her bird app, Carrie loves an adult choir, Maddy comes up with a great nickname, and Mack does not have anger triggers. We also talk about tropes of ‘90s feminism, get caught by rage bait, learn Australian slang, rant about hotel bathroom doors, and learn so much about seagull copulation. Listen to hear more about the murder cascade (or snowball), equal opportunity nudity, Columbo, speakerphone etiquette, lesbians, Taskmaster, and even more seagull sex facts.

Project Management Happy Hour
131: Don't be the PM everyone hates, with Rachel Losser

Project Management Happy Hour

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 12, 2026 50:53 Transcription Available


Your worst project management habit might also be your superpower — the trick is knowing which one you're wielding, and when. What actually separates a great project manager from the one everyone dreads seeing on their calendar? It's rarely a certification or a prettier Gantt chart — it's behavior. This episode of Project Management Happy Hour digs into project leadership, accountability, team dynamics, and the everyday habits that quietly undermine project delivery. The uncomfortable truth running through the whole conversation: our worst project management habits are usually just our genuine strengths turned all the way up, with no dial to turn them back down. Kate and Kim are joined by Rachel Losser, founder and managing partner of Losser Consulting Solutions, a delivery-focused firm known for its get-stuff-done philosophy. Together they walk through five "bad PM personas" — the versions of ourselves that colleagues quietly avoid — and, crucially, the more skilled counterpart each one can grow into. Rachel sets the tone early with a bit of grace: we're talking about these "with love and reverence," because everybody starts somewhere and most of us have been every one of them at some point. The practical throughline is nuance. Every strength becomes a liability when it's your only mode. Great PMs read the moment: when to slow down and build consensus, and when to say "we're going this way." They tell hard truths early, manage handoffs rather than just dates, and treat relationships and communication as the real currency of the job. As Kate puts it, the only way out of a struggling project is through it — not around the color of the status. Which persona are you under stress? That self-awareness, the hosts suggest, is where better project leadership actually begins. Grab a drink and join us. Quotes from the Episode "The PM has to be the brutal truth-sayer. Because if the PM doesn't say it, who's going to say it?" — Kim Essendrup "The only way out is through." — Kate Anderson "We had to live it to be able to write it." — Rachel Losser "You have no idea what people are motivated by until you implement something like that." — Rachel Losser Practical Takeaways Every PM strength has a shadow. Each of the five personas is a positive skill (documenting, reporting, follow-through, decisiveness, convening) overused into a liability. Report status honestly, then own the path back to green. Transparent "highlighter green" reporting builds credibility; greenwashing destroys it. Accountability beats date-moving. A Task Master probes why a deadline slipped and what will change, instead of silently updating the due date. Directive leadership works only in moderation. The Hammer is effective in a crisis precisely because they aren't operating at full intensity all the time. Every meeting needs a goal and buy-in. Confirming the objective at the top of a call is how you avoid becoming the Meeting Vampire. Closing Reflection Rachel's toast says it best: this is often a thankless job of late nights and "adult babysitting." But the difference between a PM everyone avoids and one everyone wants on their project usually isn't talent — it's the self-awareness to know which persona you default to under stress, and the discipline to reach for its better half instead. Which of the five is your worst habit — and what would its superpower version look like?

After being contacted by the unpredictable mercenary Deadpool, the team is hired to investigate a series of disappearances involving several missing mercenaries. Their search leads them to a seemingly abandoned pier in New York City, where clues suggest something far more dangerous is unfolding beneath the surface. But before the team can uncover the truth, the situation spirals out of control. A deadly figure emerges from the shadows of the shipping yard: Taskmaster.

O humorista Nuno Markl é o convidado de Daniel Oliveira, no Alta Definição em podcast. O locutor das “Manhãs da Comercial” e apresentador do programa “Taskmaster Portugal” partilha, pela primeira vez, a experiência que mudou a sua vida: os dois AVCs sofridos no espaço de poucas semanas. Foi o seu filho Pedro que ligou para o 112, recusando-se a aceitar a sugestão do pai de que “podia ser só cansaço”. “Não sei o que teria acontecido se não fosse ele”, admite Markl. O humorista recorda a tristeza demolidora da dependência total e o medo de nunca mais voltar a mexer o braço ou andar sem apoio. “As pessoas talvez não tenham noção do nível atómico de tristeza e solidão que se pode sentir sozinho num quarto de hospital, cheio de incertezas”, explica. Markl reflete sobre a habitual rotina antes do acidente, que descreve como “uma cavalgada insana”, o hábito de ignorar os sinais do corpo e o medo de ir ao médico. O processo de recuperação, que descreve como “o projeto mais importante da minha vida”, ensinou-lhe a valorizar as pequenas vitórias diárias e a aprender a dizer 'não'. “Antes disto acontecer, quando descansava sentia culpa por não estar a fazer mais. Agora já não.” O humorista fala ainda sobre o amor e a amizade que o sustentaram nestes meses, sobre a relação com a namorada Teresa, com a mãe, com a irmã e com os amigos que encheram o seu quarto de hospital.

One day, the dad comes home and is like it's time to go on a big adventure. They pack quickly get in the car and speed off just as the cops are starting to show up. Turns out, this isn't a normal family. It's Russian super soldier Alexei and his Black Widow operative wife. Natasha Romanoff and Yelena Belova pose as their daughters while they're working undercover. With valuable S.H.I.E.L.D. intelligence in hand, they flee to Cuba and Via montage, we see Natasha and Yelana being trained up by the Red Room become Black Widows.  21 years later, Natasha is on the run after violating the Sokovia Accords. She goes to a safehouse when at the same time, Yelena kills a rogue former Widow but is exposed to a synthetic antidote that frees her from the Red Room's chemical mind control. Hoping Natasha and the Avengers can help free the remaining Widows, Yelena sends several antidote vials to Natasha before going into hiding. While unknowingly transporting the vials, Natasha is ambushed by the mysterious masked person named The Taskmaster. After escaping, she reunites with Yelena and learns about what's still going on. Determined to destroy the Red Room, Natasha and Yelena free their ol papa Alexei from prison, hoping he knows where the Red Room leader is at. He directs them to their ol mama Melina, who lives on a farm.  Although Melina secretly alerts Dreykov, Natasha convinces her to switch sides, and the two use advanced face-mask technology to exchange identities before being taken to the Red Room in the sky.  Dreykov quickly realizes Natasha's disguise. Natasha discovers that every Widow is biologically unable to harm Dreykov because of a pheromone lock, so she deliberately breaks her own nose to sever her sense of smell and overcome the conditioning. Dreykov attempts to escape while the remaining Widows attack Natasha, but Yelena releases the antidote gas, freeing them from Dreykov's control. Natasha copies the locations of Widows stationed around the world from Dreykov's computer as the damaged facility begins to collapse. She rescues the remaining antidote vials and frees Taskmaster. Natasha gives the viral and the locations of the remaining widows to Yelena so she can rescue the others.  Natasha goes to free the imprisoned Avengers. Cut to after Natasha's death, Valentina Allegra de Fontaine visits Yelena at Natasha's grave. Claiming that Clint Barton is responsible for Natasha's death, Yelena now has her next target.
