Podcasts about track changes

In this episode, we dive into the recent NASCAR Cup Series race at Darlington, where Denny Hamlin's unexpected victory sparks a lively discussion. We analyze William Byron's dominant performance and strategic missteps, Tyler Reddick's lead change, and Ryan Blaney's impressive navigation through the field. We also touch on Darlington's track changes and the nostalgic appeal of throwback paint schemes. Additionally, we discuss the upcoming NASCAR schedule, the impact of PJ1 traction compound, and Brandon Jones' Xfinity Series win. We reflect on driver accountability and a tribute to the late Shige Hattori. We then turn our attention to a Suzuka Snoozer, with Max Verstappen finding a new gear in qualifying and Jack Doohan trying out a sim move in real life with dire consequences.

Abby and Patrick welcome Lisa Borst and Mark Krotov of literary magazine n+1. The magazine is celebrating its twentieth anniversary this year and marking this milestone with the publication of The Intellectual Situation: The Best of n+1's Second Decade. Lisa, Mark, Abby, and Patrick engage in a conversation that ranges from the history of the magazine to the legacy of the Iraq War to the early dysphorias of the Trump administration to the contemporary publishing landscape and more. But at heart, it's a discussion of the psychodynamic dimensions of the relationships between writers and editors, editors and publishers, and outlets and their audiences. We talk about how good writing can help readers, writers, and editors process the world, and about how such writing emerges from a profoundly intersubjective relationship that unfolds via drafts, correspondences, revisions, and more than a little transference.You can catch Mark and Lisa in person in NYC on October 8th (free but RSVP required): https://www.nplusonemag.com/online-only/events/why-is-everything-so-ugly-a-discussion/The Intellectual Situation is available here: https://shop.nplusonemag.com/products/the-intellectual-situation-the-best-of-n-1-s-second-decade?srsltid=AfmBOoojmEq9XJN4YJ3Mt3x8wEhGneEnhqQU-cZdGdtqoLRjRa91H8BWHave you noticed that Freud is back?

IndyCar St. Petersburg Winner Josef Newgarden dominated the IndyCar season opener in Florida. He won the Pole and led the most laps. It was such a dominating win he admitted that team boss Roger Penske warned him to stay focused and not throw the car into a wall. Newgarden laughed at the suggestion but he went on to talk about changes in the St. Pete airport track and other street races the IndyCar series may want to consider for future events. Listen...

Early one Monday morning, having spent three and a half years building their life in Biloela, the Nadesalingams are forcibly removed from their homes, thrown into white vans, and flown to a detention centre in Melbourne. The family are told they can't get access to a phone unless they sign documents saying they would leave the country. What do they do?Why was their visa application unsuccessful? What information is the government using to assess them? And what else can they do to not be sent back to danger? Meanwhile, the Biloela community are left shocked by the sudden disappearance of the Nadesalingams and start organising.

In this week's SlatorPod, we are joined by Mark Lawyer, General Manager of Trados, the key technology product line of UK-based Super Agency RWS.Trados is a translation technology adopted by hundreds of thousands of freelance translators, LSPs, and enterprise customers — the three main market segments of the localization supply chain.Mark begins with his journey to joining the localization industry straight out of university, with roles spanning business development, solution architecture, and global customer experience management. He shares some of Trados' milestones starting with its creation in 1984.Mark talks about the flexibility of the Trados platform and why they offer cloud capabilities with the desktop app to provide a hybrid working environment for translators. He discusses how user feedback allows them to release hundreds of best-in-class features each year.Mark highlights how user experience and accessibility are critical to Trados, where there are multiple configurations available to users based on their role. For example, a post-editor will have the Track Changes feature and fuzzy-match repair available to them. With more than 270,000 linguists using the platform, Mark shares how they strike the right balance between functionality and features without overwhelming those users.Mark shares his views on Google's Translation Hub and how it can bring awareness to the industry, which he sees as still being very fragmented. The pod rounds off with Trados' roadmap for 2023, plans to invest money in security, AI-driven features, the modern user experience, continuous localization, and building out that ecosystem.

The whole world pays attention to Churchill Downs on the first Saturday in May for the Kentucky Derby. Track Changes brings you the people and stories who make up the track and its neighborhood the other 364 days a year. Take an immersive trip through historic and present-day south Louisville, from wherever you are in the world. Your tour guides have ridden horses, sewn jockey silks, parked cars and run juke joints, all in the shadow of the twin spires. Produced by the Louisville Story Program and Louisville Public Media.

 Local 10's Bryan Norcross and Betty Davis explain the slight changes to the Hurricane Dorian forecast and whether South Florida could be in the clear on the Bryan Norcross Podcast. 

This week we continue our discussion of literary "selfies" with a piece by Jennifer Lunden that appeared recently in Diagram, called "Evidence, in Track Changes". The piece includes an essay written by Lunden, plus margin notes added by her mother and Lunden herself. We talk about what makes an experiment like this feel organic, rather than gimmicky, and what sorts of writing lessons that line might offer. Also, plenty of our usual foolishness, including some discussion of trends that (like selfies) might stick around and become more or less accepted, another installment of Millennial M0m3nt, and for some reason a digression into the relative merits of Three Musketeers and its #ThrowShine hashtag. What do you expect from us, high-minded literary talk?
