Today we are talking about Drupal Canvas, What it is, and when we can use it with guest Lauri Timmanee. We'll also cover Starshot Demo Design System as our module of the week.

There's a Drupal theme for that. Module name/project name: Starshot Demo Design System Brief history How old: created in July 2024 by longtime Drupalist Kristen Pol of Salsa Digital Versions available: 1.0.6, which supports Drupal 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation - Multipage writeup of SDDS, including contribution and development guides Number of open issues: 34 open issues, 3 of which are active bugs Usage stats: 79 sites Module features and usage Some of our users may have already tried out the pre-release demo of Canvas that phenaproxima posted on Github. That actually has the Starshot Demo Design System, or SDDS, baked in. So, even if you watched a demo video of Canvas, you've probably seen SDDS in action SDDS is itself built on CivicTheme, a Drupal theme built to act as a component-based atomic design system. As such, CivicTheme includes a rich component library, built from published Figma and Storybook UI Kits. And because some of the early builds for SDDS were for GovCMS, the Australian whole-of-government CMS project, it is accessible, with WCAG 2.2 compliance out-of-the-box While the official purpose of SDDS is providing a platform to use for demos in Driesnotes and other presentations to illustrate the progress being made on Canvas, I think it's also safe to say that testing the latest features of Canvas with a fully-realized design system has also helped to identify issues in Canvas itself. That means the products of all the work that has gone into SDDS will include a more production-ready stable release when that gets tagged (hopefully in time for Vienna)
Die KI übernimmt ab morgen die Verwaltung. Dieser Hoffnung geben sich so manche Politikerinnen und Politiker hin. Klappt aber nicht ganz. Ganz real sind aber die Erfahrungen der Stadt Nettetal, die seit ein paar Jahren nicht nur mit KI experimentieren, sondern echten Fortschritt erzielen. In ehrlicher Handarbeit. Und genau darum geht es heute. Von künstlicher Intelligenz versprechen sich viele Menschen eine Lösung für den Fachkräftemangel in der Kommunalverwaltung, für langsame Prozesse und komplizierte Sachverhalte. Das Potenzial zu erkennen, ist einfach, es zu heben, aber ungleich schwieriger, gerade für Kommunalverwaltung. Ich habe mit dem IT-Leiter der Stadt Nettetal aus Nordrhein-Westfalen gesprochen. Torsten Rode hat sich organisatorisch und technisch viele Gedanken gemacht und diese auch erfolgreich umgesetzt. Vor allem hat er aber die Brille der Bürgerinnen und Bürger aufgezogen und Lösungen live gebracht, die echten Nutzen erzeugen. Was Nettetal gebaut hat, wie sie vorgegangen sind und was sie noch vorhaben, das ist heute Thema in dieser Episode.

B2B Closing-Rate verdoppeln: Mit smarter Angebotsdramaturgie & starken Testimonials führst du Entscheider gezielt zum Ja – im Gespräch mit Jan Roskosch (MOVYNG Media). Viele Deals scheitern nicht am Preis, sondern an fehlender Struktur. Deshalb brauchst du eine Dramaturgie, die dein Angebot für das Buying-Center unverwechselbar macht. Zusätzlich erhöhen kurze, hochwertige Video-Testimonials die Glaubwürdigkeit genau dort, wo Einwände entstehen. Dadurch leitest du dein Gegenüber Schritt für Schritt durch die Entscheidung – und dein Champion kann dich intern souverän verkaufen. Der Prozess beginnt mit einem klar geführten Quali-Call. Danach folgt die Projektskizze mit 30–40 Folien: 80 % bewährter Kern, 20 % passgenau auf Ziele, Use Cases und KPIs zugeschnitten. Wichtig ist: Du präsentierst live – statt PDFs zu verschicken. So entsteht ein „betreutes Lesen“, alle haben denselben Informationsstand, und Einwände lassen sich unmittelbar einordnen. Außerdem platzierst du an Schlüsselstellen kurze Referenz-Clips, die Wirkung, Qualität und Time-to-Value belegen. So setzt du die Angebotsdramaturgie um: Früh primen. Kündige bereits im Erstgespräch eine Projektskizze mit Referenzen, Optionen (S/M/XL) und nächsten Schritten an – dadurch weiß das Buying-Center, was kommt. Live präsentieren. Anstelle von PDF-Pingpong führst du durch Nutzen-Story, Risiken und Preise; so kontrollierst du Tempo und Kontext. Testimonials punktgenau. Kurze Clips zu Prozess, Qualität, ROI und Implementierung liefern sozialen Beweis, während du Argumente aufbaust. Mutual Action Plan. Vereinbare verbindliche To-dos und Termine – das formale Angebot folgt erst nach dem Gremium. Up-/Cross-Sell timen. Nutze positive Projektmomente für Erweiterungen und sichere danach das Kundentestimonial; so verstärkt sich der Effekt. Darüber hinaus lohnt Qualität bei Testimonials. Professionell produzierte Videos zahlen auf deine Marke ein und treffen insbesondere im Enterprise-Umfeld die Erwartungshaltung. Gleichzeitig genügt oft eine knappe, thematisch exakt passende Sequenz – damit bleibt dein Flow erhalten. Wenn du diese Bausteine kombinierst, steigen nicht nur Win-Rates. Häufig wechseln Kund:innen vom kleinsten ins mittlere oder sogar größte Paket, weil Risiko sinkt, Wirkung sichtbar wird und Auswahl leichter fällt. Somit kannst du deine B2B Closing-Rate verdoppeln oder zumindest deutlich erhöhen. Hör rein und bau dir dein eigenes Angebots-Playbook – mit Beispielen, Leitfäden für Testimonial-Interviews und konkreten Vorlagen, die Champions stark machen.
Show Notes: Sandor Marton, a McKinsey alum and co-founder of Chronos Insights introduces the AI research companion tool and explains its features. Sandor shares his background in growth strategy, commercial strategy, and due diligence work. He identifies the problems faced by small firms and independent practitioners who don't have large teams in place to assign people to do the massive amount of necessary foundational research, which limits the size of projects they can take on. An Overview of Chronos Insights Sandor discusses partnering with Matt Jones and Dustin Chrysler to develop an AI-powered solution for market and competitive landscape research. He talks about the background of the team and the issues they initially tackled. The team aimed to create a specialized prompt leveraging ChatGPT's large language model while moving away from ChatGPT's programming “to make people happy” and to deliver more accurate results. They developed their tool, Chronos, with a different approach. The tool uses neural search and keyword search to provide more accurate and sourced research solutions. Sandor talks about how they tested the agents. He found it saved 75% of research time using the platform and emphasizes the need for review and revision of AI-generated outputs. Chronos Research Capabilities The conversation turns to access to proprietary databases, and Sandor explains the current use of the alpha version sources publicly available information. He also talks about their engineering resources and can build a version that taps into proprietary, private, or licensed resources, and that the user can direct the agent to source from specific sources. Sandor refers to a large Fortune 100 company that has hired them to build an agent to work with their internal research team. Sandor discusses potential future features like an interview finder tool and a composite self-referencing insights feature. The discussion touches on the flexibility of the tool in handling different types of research problems. User Interface Explained Sandor explains the simple UI of the tool, which includes five landing pages: Project Overview, Research Statement of Work, Research Plan, Research Tab, and Research Summary. The tool creates a research plan based on the user's research statement of work, breaking it down into discrete task prompts. Sandor demonstrates how to use the tool by copying and pasting a Word document into the Research Statement of Work tab. The tool generates a detailed research plan, including market landscape, competitor landscape, and key trends and developments. Project Overview Research Plan Generation Sandor explains the process of generating a research plan, including organizing research tasks by major research categories and subsections. He shares an example of the various categories to be researched within the statement of work. The tool creates task prompts for each topic within the research statement of work. Users can edit tasks and change the language model used for research. Sandor highlights the efficiency of running multiple tasks concurrently using the platform and demonstrates how it works and the various categories of research that can be explored, analyzed, and summarized. How Chronos Summarizes Prompts Sections Identified and Tasks to Complete Subsections Explained Reviewing and Exporting Sandor demonstrates how to review and export the research outputs generated by the tool. The tool provides citations for each task, allowing users to verify the sources. Users can rerun tasks and edit them as needed. The tool offers a research summary feature, which condenses the research outputs into a concise format. Research Task Overview Market Landscape Research Use Cases and Future Developments Sandor talks about use cases and future developments. He explains that it can handle various research topics and how they have programmed the agent to eliminate errors. Sandor mentions a project which included researching sales cycles and client selection criteria. The tool has potential for developing primary research, valuation and diligence work, and incorporating proprietary or licensed material.

What if one spray could upgrade your brain, protect your mitochondria, and outperform IV therapy and liposomal supplements? In this episode, you'll discover the breakthrough science behind topical glutathione delivery that uses your skin's water channels to raise intracellular glutathione levels in just 60 seconds. Learn how this powerful antioxidant works at the cellular level to reduce oxidative stress, support mitochondrial function, and drive real improvements in brain health, emotional resilience, and human performance. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Nayan Patel, a world-leading pharmacist and formulator who pioneered this next-gen delivery method. With over two decades of clinical work in functional medicine, Nayan has helped reshape how we think about glutathione benefits, systemic detox, and performance optimization. His research shows that topical delivery bypasses traditional fat-based absorption, achieving higher brain uptake and faster results than IVs or capsules. You'll learn: • Why glutathione for longevity is foundational to biohacking • How it protects against cellular inflammation and improves TBI recovery issues • Why pairing glutathione with NAD+, vitamin C, or pharmaceutical nicotine creates a powerful synergy • How it preserves NAD+, supports sirtuins, and enhances ATP production • When to use glutathione as an immune booster for resilience and recovery This conversation also reveals the truth behind liposomal supplements, how your age affects glutathione absorption, and why this molecule is critical for anyone using nootropics, in ketosis, or pushing metabolic limits. This episode is essential listening for anyone into biohacking, cold therapy, functional medicine, or RFK-style medical freedom. You'll walk away with practical tools to boost nitric oxide naturally, prevent dysfunction, and optimize your biology whether you're on a carnivore diet or just looking for an edge. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence (AI) Podcast
Today, we're joined by Fatih Porikli, senior director of technology at Qualcomm AI Research for an in-depth look at several of Qualcomm's accepted papers and demos featured at this year's CVPR conference. We start with “DiMA: Distilling Multi-modal Large Language Models for Autonomous Driving,” an end-to-end autonomous driving system that incorporates distilling large language models for structured scene understanding and safe planning motion in critical "long-tail" scenarios. We explore how DiMA utilizes LLMs' world knowledge and efficient transformer-based models to significantly reduce collision rates and trajectory errors. We then discuss “SharpDepth: Sharpening Metric Depth Predictions Using Diffusion Distillation,” a diffusion-distilled approach that combines generative models with metric depth estimation to produce sharp, accurate monocular depth maps. Additionally, Fatih also shares a look at Qualcomm's on-device demos, including text-to-3D mesh generation, real-time image-to-video and video-to-video generation, and a multi-modal visual question-answering assistant.
