In this episode, Brian Owens is joined by Dana Foley (Head of Catastrophe Research at Chaucer), Joss Matthewman (Chief Revenue Officer at Reask) and Olivia Sloan (Head of Catastrophe Products at Fathom) to explore the growing influence of specialist model vendors in catastrophe risk modelling and why they're anything but “niche”. With decades of combined experience across underwriting, model development and scientific research, the panel discusses how climate change, regulatory pressure and the need for portfolio-specific insight are pushing insurers to reconsider single-platform dependency. They explore how new vendors are filling gaps left by traditional models offering science-led, transparent and highly customisable solutions tailored to specific business needs. Drawing on their respective roles across the risk ecosystem, the panellists explain why the return to multi-modelling is gaining momentum and how platforms like Oasis are helping democratise access to emerging tools. In this conversation, the panel explores: Why “niche” models are proving critical in underserved perils, regions and use cases The evolution from black-box outputs to transparent, collaborative frameworks How science-first models enable faster innovation and user-driven risk views What's enabling and blocking wider adoption of multi-modelling approaches How Fathom and Reask are using AI and machine learning to improve model fidelity Why regulatory scrutiny and climate change demand a more agile modelling approach The role of open platforms like Oasis in supporting innovation and vendor access What insurers need to consider when building a tailored, future-ready modelling strategy Sign up to the InsTech newsletter for a fresh view on the world every Wednesday morning.

This curiously named lane, marked by a stone archway, hosts an open-air market hemmed in by tall, dense residential buildings. Mobile vendors, traditional snack stalls, breakfast shops, butchers, and seafood stands huddle together, with a central lot crammed with bicycles and scooters. It serves as the local wet market, breakfast spot, and a hangout where elders idly stroll.  Vendors' calls are swallowed by the bold, booming voices of Nanjing locals. Online, many claim this is Nanjing's most authentic, lively spot, as if noise, chaos, and disorder define “local flavour.” The equation seems to be: noisy public spaces = bustling = vibrant = full of life. Defining a place's spirit by its volume is a raw, unpolished truth. Recorded in Nanjing, China by Digimonk.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for December 11th Publish Date: December 11th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, December 11th and Happy birthday to Nikki Six I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Atlanta Christkindl Market proving a hit in Lawrenceville Gwinnett commissioners OK 4% salary adjustment for county employees Paul Duke STEM High School honored for work to improve student outcomes Plus Shane Delancey the Director of the Christmas Tradition at the Strand Theatre All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: GCPS Hiring-Villa Rica Wonderland Train STORY 1: Atlanta Christkindl Market proving a hit in Lawrenceville Avery Boutin and Jordan Lettis had never been to the Atlanta Christkindl Market before, but now that it’s landed in their backyard? They couldn’t resist. Sunday night, they joined the crowd under twinkling string lights, wandering the aisles, riding the Ferris wheel, and—of course—grabbing raclette sandwiches. This is the market’s first year in Lawrenceville, and it’s already a hit. City Manager Chuck Warbington said it’s tripled downtown foot traffic. Vendors? 90 booths, everything from bratwursts to alpaca scarves. And the hot chocolate line? Let’s just say, patience required. STORY 2: Gwinnett commissioners OK 4% salary adjustment for county employees Gwinnett County employees just got an early Christmas surprise—4% raises, approved by commissioners on Tuesday. Starting pay? Now at least $40,000 a year for full-timers. Not bad, right? The adjustment, retroactive to Oct. 25, bumps up pay ranges across the board, including public safety roles. Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson called it a step toward addressing inflation and keeping Gwinnett competitive. “We’re investing in the people who keep this county running,” she said. With a $2.6 billion budget vote looming in January, it’s unclear how this raise fits in. But for now? A little extra in the paycheck feels good. STORY 3: Paul Duke STEM High School honored for work to improve student outcomes Paul Duke STEM High just snagged a huge honor—one of only two schools in Georgia named a 2025 National ESEA Distinguished School. Pretty big deal, right? This recognition isn’t handed out lightly. It’s for Title I schools that are crushing it academically and making real strides with their students. Principal Dr. Jonathon Wetherington couldn’t be prouder. “This is about our students, our teachers, our families—all of us,” he said. Their STEMforALL initiative? Game-changer. It’s hands-on, rigorous, and inclusive, reaching multilingual learners, students with disabilities, and those facing economic challenges. Oh, and Flex Fridays? Genius. Targeted support, projects, college prep—it’s working. Graduation rates? Over 90%. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Kia Mall of Georgia - DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Gwinnett County Public Library offering RISE Teen Entrepreneurship program Got a teen with big dreams of running their own business? Gwinnett County Public Library’s RISE Teen Entrepreneurship Program might be just the thing. Starting Feb. 17, 2026, this four-week crash course will teach teens (ages 13–19) how to turn ideas into real businesses. Here’s the deal: they’ll brainstorm, build a business plan, and pitch their ideas to local entrepreneurs in a Shark Tank-style showdown. Winners? Cash prizes. Meetings are weekly, 5:30–7:30 p.m., at the Lawrenceville Hooper-Renwick branch. Deadline to apply? Jan. 5. Oh, and library cardholders can use maker spaces—think laser printers, podcast gear, sewing machines—for free. Dream big, Gwinnett! STORY 5: Touchdown Club of Gwinnett Honors Best in 2025 High School Football The Touchdown Club of Gwinnett threw a big bash Monday at 12Stone Church, celebrating the absolute best of Gwinnett high school football from the 2025 season. And wow, what a lineup. Buford’s Tyriq Green snagged Athlete of the Year—no surprise there, considering he’s leading his team to the Class AAAAAA state finals. North Gwinnett cleaned up too, with Zach Lewis (Offensive Lineman), Max Patterson (Tight End), and Chauncey Davis (Defensive Back) all taking home top honors. Other schools? Brookwood, Collins Hill, and Grayson had multiple winners, too. Honestly, the talent in this county is unreal. Full list? It’s long—like, really long. But trust me, these kids earned it. GEORGIA SWARM: The Georgia Swarm are itching to get back on the floor. After dropping their season opener to Buffalo—yeah, the three-time champs, no big deal—they’ve had a week off to regroup. That 15-11 loss? Not ideal. Saturday, Dec. 13, they’re finally at home, Gas South Arena, facing the Oshawa FireWolves. Rookie Nolan Byrne? Scored his first goal in Buffalo. Shayne Jackson? Four goals, still a beast. And this team? Big. Fast. Aggressive. Fans better buckle up—it’s gonna be fun.

Manuel, the barber on Calle Roja,  who was no friend of Fidel's,   swept up Castro's beard with his broom. Manuel placed the beard  in a dill pickle jar and called the F.B.I.    Interrogation proved useless  against Castro's infiltrating beard. Torture, truth serum, and offers of amnesty. None of these tactics worked.  The F.B.I. made offers of money, to which Castro's beard just laughed, and said,  “Try again.”  Following months of imprisonment and high level risk assessment, the FBI released Castro's beard. A revolution in the United States was unlikely.   Finding work was not difficult. Castro's beard was offered a job to write  for the socialist rag, La Revolucion. The Department of Labor issued a work visa.  The beard was determined  to make something of itself.  Having lived in Cuba on a dictator's face,  Castro's beard wrote the best articles  on socialism anybody had ever read.   The disembodied beard worked its way to the top. Staff writer, to lead writer, to Editor in Chief. Life was good for the transplanted ideologue.  The beard bought a car and a small bungalow. None of it belonged to Cuba. Castro's beard was happy for a long time.   Many years later, on a cool evening,  Castro's Beard was watching television and  eating dinner at home in Little Havana.  There was a knock on the door.  Not expecting company, the beard said, “Who is it?”  There was a very long pause before the reply.  “Somos los amigos de Fidel Castro.  Señor Castro está muerto.”  We are the friends of Fidel. Mr Castro is dead.  The day Castro's beard had been dreading had arrived.   The beard opened its front door. Two men, dressed in black suits, with skin  the color of gold stood on the porch.  The men smelled of cigar smoke, rum, and fresh limes. They were crying. “Stay here,” said Castro's beard. The beard went to its bedroom, and took a suitcase  from the closet, and started packing.  The men waited on the porch.    Hundreds of thousands—maybe millions— of mourners passed by the glass coffin of Fidel Castro. The line of people waiting to see the dead President's body at Revolution Square, stretched for miles. From its perch on Fidel's cold dead chin,  Castro's beard regarded each mourner with gratitude. Most were silent, some said long and whispering prayers, others wailed and screamed with unfathomable grief.   An old woman addressed Castro's beard directly.  “I'm so glad you're home,” she said, wiping away tears,  “You belong here, on the face of our leader.”  Deep down inside, Castro's beard was certain  The old woman was right.  “May I ask you a question?” said the beard to the woman. The old woman blew her nose into a rag and nodded.  “Did Fidel forget me—did he hate me for failing?” “Never,” the woman said to the beard,  dropping her handkerchief. She smiled. “He loved you for trying.”

Send us a textRecent product launches, acquisitions, and funding announcements underscore how rapidly enterprise software and AI platforms are evolving across both horizontal and vertical use cases. Vendors such as Orbit Analytics, Deltek, and Advantive are extending core operational solutions with deeper analytics, compliance, and decision-support capabilities, while companies like Pipefy, Aquant, Kognitos, and Intellistack are pushing AI further into everyday workflows through agents, retrieval-augmented conversations, neurosymbolic reasoning, and no-code automation. Strategic moves like IFS acquiring TheLoops highlight growing demand for AI-driven operational intelligence embedded directly into ERP ecosystems, rather than bolted on at the edges. At the same time, significant growth financings for PhysicsX and Vultr signal continued investor confidence in infrastructure and applied-AI platforms that can support increasingly compute-intensive, industry-specific use cases. Together, these developments point to a market shifting from experimental AI features toward scaled, production-ready capabilities tightly integrated with core enterprise systems.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hw7jW3wPtFQQuestions for Panelists?

Woodstock is gearing up for its first-ever two-day Hometown Holidays celebration, and excitement is in the air. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael talks with Jen Dufner, the town's marketing and events coordinator, to discuss the expanded festivities, the challenges of organizing such an event, and the unique experiences awaiting residents and visitors alike. Expanding the Holiday Magic For the first time, Hometown Holidays will span both Saturday and Sunday, offering more opportunities for families and friends to enjoy the festivities. Jen explains that the decision to extend the event was driven by the packed December calendar and the desire to give everyone a chance to participate. "There's always so much going on during the holidays," she notes. "Having that extra day means people don't have to choose between events—they can do it all." Vendors, Young Entrepreneurs, and Local Flavor This year, the event boasts 17 vendors, up from 13 last year, and introduces a heated tent to keep attendees cozy. Notably, the young entrepreneurs' market, organized in partnership with the local chamber, will take place on Saturday only. Jen encourages everyone to carve out time to support these creative youngsters, who bring fresh ideas and products to the community. Additionally, a few vendors will only be present on one of the two days, adding a sense of urgency and variety to the shopping experience. Navigating Logistics and Weather Organizing a two-day outdoor event is no small feat. Jen and Janet discuss the logistical hurdles, from coordinating vendor schedules to preparing for unpredictable weather. The team has planned for every scenario, including a heated tent next to Woodstock Brewhouse and clear signage to guide visitors. Updates and maps will be posted on the Woodstock Enhancement Facebook page, ensuring everyone stays informed. Santa, Swing, and Sweet Treats No holiday celebration would be complete without Santa Claus, and Woodstock's event is no exception. Santa will be available for photos and wish lists both days, with slightly different hours each day. On Saturday, attendees can also enjoy a special performance by the Yesterday Swing Orchestra, an 18-piece ensemble bringing classic Christmas carols to life inside the brewhouse. The festivities don't stop there. The beloved cookie crawl returns, featuring 15 participating businesses and bakeries. For $25, ticket holders can collect a cookie from each location—no baking required. Jen and Janet share laughs over their own baking mishaps, agreeing that "you can't taste ugly" when it comes to homemade treats. Celebrating Local Businesses and Community Spirit Throughout the conversation, both women highlight the vibrant mix of shops and eateries lining Main Street and Court Street. From bookstores and art galleries to cafes and ice cream parlors, Woodstock's downtown offers something for everyone. The event also shines a spotlight on local artists and entrepreneurs who may not have storefronts, giving them a platform to share their talents. A Weekend to Remember As the conversation wraps up, Jen expresses her excitement for the expanded event and the magic it brings to downtown Woodstock. With a growing roster of vendors, special performances, and a strong sense of community, Hometown Holidays promises to be a memorable weekend for all. For the latest updates, attendees are encouraged to follow the Woodstock Enhancement Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/woodstock.enhancement 

The Gartner debate keeps resurfacing on LinkedIn. Skeptics vs. pragmatists vs. the "it depends" crowd. Same arguments. Same camps. Same circular conversation. Everyone's missing the point. After having hundreds of direct conversations between vendors and CISOs, I've come to a controversial conclusion: The analyst relations industry exists because marketers don't want to do the hard work of actually understanding their buyers. In this episode, I'm going deep on what no one's willing to say: How buyer insight gets distorted through seven (at least) layers of interpretation before it reaches your strategy. By the time Gartner's "insight" hits your roadmap, it's a game of telephone. Vendors expect Gartner to generate pipeline. It generates awareness. That awareness doesn't convert. And the "justification" use case? I don't buy it anymore. I'll tell you what CISOs actually say. Gartner has become a shortcut to avoid the uncomfortable work of direct buyer relationships. More surprisingly, the analysts aren't doing the deep work either. You are the product, not the customer. AI is commoditizing surface-level insight. But the deep nuance, the psychology, the politics, the unspoken objections, that still requires human connection. The differentiator is becoming more human, not less. What to do instead. How to build buyer intimacy as a core competency. Why the vendors who win will be the ones who stop outsourcing the most important work in marketing. This episode isn't about whether Gartner is good or bad. It's about a harder question: How well do you actually know your buyer? If the honest answer is "not deeply enough", Gartner isn't your problem. If you're a cybersecurity founder, marketer, or GTM leader wondering who has even the smallest inkling or intuitive feeling deep down inside that your Gartner investment isn't worthwhile, this one's for you.

654. Today we post our presentation on Liberty in Louisiana at the 2025 Louisiana Studies Conference. Liberty in Louisiana by James Workman is the oldest known extant play about Louisiana. Workman wrote the play in 1803 with the goal of supporting the impending Louisiana Purchase. This was Workman's sole venture in writing drama; he mostly wrote political essays. This time, he thought he could reach a wider audience with a play, but he still had a political objective. His goal was to demonstrate the superior legal system of the United States, which would free Louisiana from the tyranny of the Old World and replace it with the New World's Republic of Freedom. Workman had a ready theme to use in his play — the Black Legend of Spanish Law. Spanish law was denigrated by other European countries.  Its Civil Law, modelled on old Roman Law, had the best reputation, but it was slow, secret, incredibly complex, and open to corruption. The Criminal Law was markedly worse in the popular imagination. It was not seen as ancient Roman but as excessively Medieval and barbaric. Spain used several forms of capital punishment, mutilation and other corporal punishments, and forced labor. Worst of all was Canon Law — the infamous Spanish Inquisition. The corrupt judge Don Bertoldo embodies this old, corrupt systems that the Americans end. Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 221 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Pisatuntema. Myths of the Louisiana Choctaw. "Hashok Okwa Hui'ga."     There is a certain spirit that lives in marshy places — often along the edges of swamps. It is never seen during the day, only at night, and even then its heart is the only part visible. Its heart appears as a small ball of fire that may be seen moving about, a short distance above the surface of the water.     At night, when a person is passing along a trail or going through the woods, and meets the Hashok Okwa Hui'ga he must immediately turn away and not look at it, otherwise he will certainly become lost and not arrive at his destination that night, but instead, travel in a circle.     The name is derived from the three words: hashok, grass; okwa, water; hui'ga, drop. The two preceding tales refer to the ignis fatuus often seen along the swamps of St Tammany parish. This week in Louisiana history. November 29, 2005. Tropical Storm Epsilon becoming the 26th named storm of the busiest hurricane season on record. This week in New Orleans history. The fire with 6 deaths at the Rault Center marks November 29, 1972 as tragic day in New Orleans history. Legislation requiring sprinkler systems in high-rise buildings were prompted by this tragedy.

SAP's recent acquisition of SmartRecruiters has generated considerable interest across the talent acquisition community. The deal brings AI-native recruiting capabilities into a broader HR suite, creating complete visibility into data across the entire employee lifecycle. For recruiters, this means seeing what happens after a hire is made with the potential to connect talent acquisition decisions to performance, retention, and engagement outcomes. This is where AI agents become significant. When agents can access and act on a complete, harmonized data set spanning the whole employee journey, entirely new possibilities open up for how work gets done across the talent function. Yet despite the rapid pace of innovation, AI adoption is still lagging. Vendors are shipping capabilities faster than most organisations can implement them, held back by regulatory concerns, change management challenges, and uncertainty about where to start. So how can Talent leaders close this gap and take advantage of what is a huge strategic opportunity? My guest this week is Lara Albert, Chief Marketing Officer at SAP SuccessFactors. In our conversation, she discusses the SmartRecruiters acquisition, explains how agents working across the employee lifecycle could reshape HR, and shares her advice on how employers can get started. In the interview, we discuss: Why SAP acquired SmartRecruiters and what happens next Connecting recruiting data to employee outcomes Layering Agentic AI on top of people intelligence What's holding back AI adoption Regulation, change management, and mindset TA and HR have a once-in-a-career opportunity to lead transformation Business cases, buy-in, and getting started What will the future look like?

Evaluating Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) solutions and drowning in buzzwords, vendor decks, and generic analyst reports? In this solo episode of the CPQ Podcast, Frank walks you through something he has been building for exactly that problem: the CPQ Sales Report from Novus CPQ. This is not a sales pitch. Think of this episode as a reference guide you can come back to whenever you need to shortlist CPQ vendors, support a sales cycle, or explain a solution to your internal stakeholders. You'll learn: What the CPQ Sales Report is and who it's for (buyers, system integrators, and CPQ vendors) What's inside each 20+ page, vendor-specific report and how it adds value to real sales cycles When to use a report for shortlisting, internal alignment, business cases, and partner enablement How the CPQ Sales Report differs from the CPQ Briefing Subscription Which vendors are currently covered: camos Software, Bit2win, XaitCPQ, Engineering Intent, SAP (CPQ-related), Salesforce Revenue Cloud Advanced, Nue.io – plus an upcoming report on Revalize Frank also shares what's new (including the updated XaitCPQ report), what's coming next, and how these reports stay vendor-neutral, fact-based, and practical—so you can make better CPQ decisions without rewriting everything yourself.

Microsoft has launched Agent 365, a management platform designed for overseeing AI agents within enterprise environments. This platform, now available in early access, includes features such as the Microsoft Entra Registry for managing agent identities, risk-based access policies, and performance measurement tools. The introduction of Agent 365 signifies a shift towards integrating AI agents into standard business operations, allowing organizations to manage both Microsoft-built and third-party AI agents in a unified system. This development is part of a broader trend where AI governance and customer expectations are becoming increasingly critical for Managed Service Providers (MSPs).In conjunction with the launch of Agent 365, Microsoft has formed strategic partnerships with NVIDIA and Anthropic to enhance access to Anthropic's Cloud AI model, which will be scaled on Microsoft Azure. Anthropic has committed to purchasing $30 billion in Azure compute capacity, indicating a significant investment in cloud infrastructure. This partnership will allow Microsoft Foundry customers to access various versions of Anthropic's AI models, further solidifying Microsoft's position in the AI landscape. The implications of these partnerships extend to the operational costs and strategies of organizations that rely on AI, as the control of compute resources becomes a central factor in AI deployment.Additional announcements from Microsoft Ignite include new AI capabilities for Windows 11 and enhancements to Office applications, which will introduce free AI features aimed at improving user productivity. Vendors such as NinjaOne, Pax8, and Nerdio have also announced integrations and initiatives to align with Microsoft's evolving ecosystem, focusing on improving visibility, compliance, and modernization of virtual desktop infrastructure. These developments reflect a concerted effort by various companies to integrate more deeply into Microsoft's cloud and AI frameworks.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these advancements underscore the necessity of adapting to a rapidly changing technological landscape. The introduction of AI agents and the associated governance requirements will demand that MSPs develop frameworks for managing AI behavior and expectations. As AI features become standard in widely used applications, MSPs will need to address client expectations regarding AI functionality and reliability. The consolidation of media narratives around cybersecurity also highlights the importance of maintaining a balanced perspective on technology strategy, ensuring that MSPs focus on comprehensive solutions that address a range of client needs beyond just security. Three things to know today 00:00 Microsoft Signals Shift to an “Agentic OS” as Microsoft Deepens Anthropic Partnership and Expands AI Across Windows and Microsoft 36507:29 Ignite Highlights Vendor Rush Into Microsoft's Orbit, Raising Questions About MSP Differentiation and Over-Standardization11:57 CyberRisk Alliance Buys ChannelPro — and Shifts the MSP Storyline Toward Security This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship

Step up your recruiting marketing and consider that with today's remote tools, maybe your next hire doesn't have to live in your region.  When hiring a non-attorney salesperson, how do you prepare them? Trying to teach them “the law” can be both irrelevant and perilous.

See! the moon is smiling Down her brightest beams, And the leaflets sleeping, Whisper in their dreams; Hear the merry music, And the peoples' lays, Hear the happy voices Joining in the plays.     There in old Kentucky, On a summer's night, Stands a quadroon maiden, Clothed in robes of white; On her raven ringlets, Orange blossoms sleep, O'er her slender figure, Bridal vestments sweep.     There we see her mistress, Smiling now with pride, On her handsome fav'rite, Whom she sees a bride. There is much rejoicing O'er Eliza's match; Misses Shelby fancies George is a good “catch.”     So the banjo's sounding, And the people sing, Hear them gayly dancing, To the fiddle's ring. But the dawn is breaking, Guests must now disperse; Quick the bow is silent, Ere the sunlight bursts. This week in Louisiana history. November 8, 1893. First LSU v.

Amazon has initiated legal action against Perplexity AI, alleging that the startup's AI browser improperly accesses Amazon customer accounts by mimicking human browsing behavior. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, raises concerns about security risks associated with Perplexity's Comet browser. Amazon claims that this practice undermines customer experience and its curated shopping services. In response, Perplexity asserts that Amazon is leveraging its market dominance to stifle competition, emphasizing that user credentials are stored locally and not on their servers.In a related development, Microsoft researchers have introduced a new simulation environment called the Magentic Marketplace, aimed at evaluating the performance of AI agents. This initiative, developed in collaboration with Arizona State University, highlights vulnerabilities in current agentic models, particularly their ability to operate unsupervised and respond to complex scenarios. Initial experiments revealed that as customer agents faced increased options, their efficiency declined due to information overload, raising concerns about the practical application of AI agents in real-world settings.Additional updates include Netrix Global's acquisition of Ricoh's U.S. IT services business, marking Ricoh's exit from the managed services sector. This acquisition is expected to enhance Netrix's offerings and geographic reach, particularly in the Northeast and Southeast regions of the United States. Furthermore, several product announcements aimed at improving operational efficiency for MSPs were made, including Movila's Project Hub for project management and Huntress's support for Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification compliance.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of governance and compliance in the deployment of AI technologies. The legal dispute between Amazon and Perplexity highlights the need for clarity around user data handling and the implications of automated systems. Additionally, the acquisition of Ricoh's IT services by Netrix serves as a reminder of the challenges in the managed services market, emphasizing the necessity for specialization and operational efficiency. Vendors are increasingly recognizing the need to provide practical support tools that enhance operational capabilities rather than merely offering security solutions.Four things to know today00:00 Amazon Says Perplexity's AI Went Too Far — and Microsoft Just Proved Why Agents Still Struggle04:26 Ricoh's Out, Netrix Is In — Another Big Shift in the MSP Landscape06:18 Three New AI Tools Drop for MSPs—But Only One Might Actually Matter09:20 Project Templates, Compliance Docs, and Pay-as-You-Go: Vendors Focus on MSP Basics This is the Business of Tech.

Send us a textStart with a simple truth: when the platform breaks, your clever architecture won't save you. We dig into the AWS US‑East‑1 outage where DynamoDB's role in DNS planning for load balancers collided with a race condition, leaving empty records and stalled EC2 instances. Forget the finger‑wagging about “well‑architected” apps—this was a platform failure with limited customer escape routes. We weigh multi‑region and multi‑cloud trade‑offs with a sober look at cost, complexity, and operational burden.Security took center stage with two high‑risk stories you need to act on. First, a critical WSUS flaw enabling remote unauthenticated code execution against the very servers meant to protect fleets. If WSUS is still live, patch immediately or take it offline until you can. Then, the F5 source code theft: not a cloning threat, but a blueprint for discovering subtle bugs and crafting precise exploits. Attribution points toward Chinese state‑sponsored actors, which means targeted, quiet use rather than noisy mass exploitation. The risk isn't gone when headlines fade; it's just harder to see.We connect this to rising exploitation of vSock across hypervisors like VMware ESXi. With public PoCs and active abuse, vSock opens covert channels from host to guest, making segmentation and management plane isolation non‑negotiable. Patch aggressively, gate access through jump hosts, enforce MFA, and consider disabling vSock where viable on QEMU stacks. These are concrete steps that cut real risk.Then we turn to the elephant in the data center: AI ROI. Vendors keep shipping agentic assistants and copilots, but few can show durable returns outside a subsidized token economy. We share a pragmatic lens for measuring value—cycle time, MTTR, defect rates—while acknowledging the dot‑com‑style arc ahead: hype, correction, then durable wins that prioritize efficiency. As AI demand drives massive new builds, the physical footprint of the cloud is showing up in local power grids and skylines. Infrastructure choices now carry community and energy implications leaders can't ignore.Subscribe, share with a colleague who owns platform reliability or security, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway or question—what will you patch, segment, or measure first?Purchase Chris and Tim's book on AWS Cloud Networking: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Advanced-Networking-Certification-certification/dp/1835080839/ Check out the Monthly Cloud Networking Newshttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1fkBWCGwXDUX9OfZ9_MvSVup8tJJzJeqrauaE6VPT2b0/Visit our website and subscribe: https://www.cables2clouds.com/Follow us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cables2clouds.comFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cables2clouds/Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cables2cloudsMerch Store: https://store.cables2clouds.com/Join the Discord Study group: https://artofneteng.com/iaatj

Send us a textHoliday magic is better when it has a mission. We pull back the curtain on the Ron Myers Christmas City Gift Show and trace its unlikely rise from a post–Air Force leap of faith to a 42-year Gulf Coast tradition that funds ministries, lifts small businesses, and welcomes thousands into a thoughtfully designed shopping experience.We start with the spark: a first-time event that proved ideas can move people, then the steady steps that followed—flea markets, a seasonal pivot, and a prayerful leap to the Mississippi Coast Coliseum. Along the way, we break down what makes Christmas City work at scale: 300+ curated booths, Breakfast with Santa for families, and the adults-only Shopper's Paradise with live music, wine, and a relaxed pace. Even operational tweaks like widening aisles in 2020 turned a crisis constraint into a permanent comfort, reshaping how guests browse, connect with vendors, and make memories.Beyond the booths, we explore impact. Christmas City helps fund Ron Myers Ministries, supporting Christian rehab centers, anti-trafficking efforts, missions, and values-driven media. It also delivers a timely economic boost after the summer season, filling hotels and restaurants and earning recognition as a top 20 tourism event in the Southeast. Vendors benefit from curation that values quality and variety, a selection process that raises the bar, and a community vibe that turns door prizes and promo exchanges into shared momentum.Threaded through the story is a clear throughline of faith, perseverance, and purpose. Ron talks candidly about setbacks—from hurricanes to pandemics—and the steady commitment that kept the vision alive. For entrepreneurs and dreamers, this is a blueprint: start where you are, serve people well, and build systems that honor both experience and impact.Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves meaningful holiday traditions, and leave a review to help others find the show. What would you ask Ron about the “secret sauce” that keeps a community coming back year after year?Support the showThank you for listening!

Held in the western Chicago Suburb of Carol Stream, Illinois the Chicago Non-Sport Card Show has been a bastion of card goodness for many years now. Over the two day event, attendees could browse several tables of non-sport cards and collectibles. Vendors return year after year to catch up with old friends and to delight attendees. Typically held twice annually, the fall show was held on October 17th and 18th.  We talk with vendors Jason Beyer, returning guests Bill Hjelmgren from Lookey Here and Paul Maiellaro, former show runner and board member of Treasurechest.org - a charity he helps support during the show.Jason BeyerSidequestgamesandcollectibles.comsqgamesandcollectibles@gmail.comBill & Celeste Hjelmgren https://www.nonsportcardshows.com/Paul Maiellarohttps://www.treasurechest.org‘At the Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation, we believe every child fighting cancer deserves a moment of joy. It all started in 1993, when founder Colleen Kisel saw the comfort a small toy brought her son, Martin, during his cancer treatment. That simple gift sparked a big idea: bring smiles and comfort to kids facing the toughest battles. Today, Treasure Chest Programs have been established in 69 pediatric cancer centers across the country — with many still actively serving young patients. After a difficult procedure, each child gets to choose a toy, gift, or gift card — a small reward for their strength and bravery.'If you have a question or comment, find me on the  socials: Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, Bluesky & Substack,  @rebelbasecard Check out the TeePublic store and you can be helping out the show while finding some cool swag. https://www.teepublic.com/user/rebel-base-cardFind me on the Topps Digital Apps like Star Wars Card Trader, Marvel, Disney Collect and BUNT @CORNFEDTECHYou can also help out the show by rating The Rebel Base Card Podcast wherever you get your podcasts.

Authoritarian regimes are upgrading their playbook — from surveillance cameras and spyware to algorithmic censorship and AI-driven policing. Steven Feldstein, senior fellow at Carnegie and author of The Rise of Digital Repression, joins Bankless to map the expanding world of repression technology. We cover everything from Nepal's protest movement to China's sophisticated censorship stack, the global spyware industry, and the unsettling rise of predictive policing and AI in warfare. Along the way, Feldstein explains how financial repression and social credit systems extend state power into the economic sphere — and where crypto fits into the story of resistance.
