Hi everyone, welcome to the addiction recovery channel. I'm Ed Baker. I'm your host I'm very happy today to have as our guest Representative Taylor Small. Thank you so much for having me on. Thank you. Thank you so much for being here I know that your your day is busy to say the least. You are right about that one Taylor is in her second term as a member of the Vermont House of Representatives and really representing Chittenden County and very well versed in this public health Emergency catastrophic emergency that we face in Vermont today and that will be the topic of our discussion Taylor just in your own words could you I mean describe what you feel about what's going on what you see Going on you've been watching this for a number of years now. What what do you make of it? What do we make of this? I mean simply put out its heartbreaking It's heartbreaking to know that when these conversations first started we were talking about an opioid crisis We were talking about recognizing that pharmaceutical companies were to blame for a lot of addiction that we were seeing in our communities And we were starting to talk about getting folks into treatment and what recovery would look like and now Because we haven't been as aggressive as the drugs that are coming out onto the streets We are now having to talk about an overdose death crisis We have to talk about addressing overdoses instead of just addressing substance use disorder at its core And that is is what's most devastating. I think back to my first year in office when we were working on this We had the very poignant message said to us that a hundred and eighty people had died of overdoses in that year and To think as elected representatives in the state of Vermont. There are a hundred and eighty of us that occupy those seats There was a moment taken where representative Dane Whitman presented this bill and said For every seat that we occupy that is one person that has died in the state And I said I don't want to see that again And I came back the next year and Vermont once again set a record with over 200 deaths What year was that first year? The first year so I came in in 2021 So I believe 2022 is when we first tried to pass H728 focused on overdose prevention and that was simply to study overdose prevention sites and that was vetoed and then It really showed that that work was needed when we set another record the next year and again this coming year And we're about to set another record of overdose deaths, and that's not what I want to see for Vermont I think we're really backtracking in what is addressing this issue and really focusing on the fact that we have a hub-and-spoke model Which yes is helpful in getting folks into treatment, but it's not the panacea of what the current What is currently happening on the streets? You know, I mean you describe it so poignantly that in the year that you Began your service in the Vermont House of Representatives There was exactly the number of overdose deaths as there are seats in the house. That's mind-boggling it is since then The Centers for Disease Control has a little bit of a different estimate of death in Vermont their estimate for Vermont in 2022 Was 264 beloved Vermonters taken from us 264 do you Do you have figures at hand for Chinden County for 2022 or going into 2023? I don't know those figures Right off hand, but I know that the rate of overdose in Chinden County is escalating to the point that Unlikely characters are coming out of the works to say hey what we are doing is not working I think in particular what is really highlighted for me is our emergency medical services As well as our fire department who is saying we are spending more of our time Responding to and addressing overdoses in communities than we are to doing our regular jobs we're being held up by addressing substance use disorder in our communities and Because of us not taking action on the state level We're putting it back on communities and local fire departments and EMS agencies to try to figure out new solutions So in Burlington, we saw that the fire department was seeing this increase in calls And so they started having just a rapid response for overdoses alone Yeah, I think that is so commendable of what we are seeing in Burlington And yet that is not what I want to be seeing I want us to be addressing this as a state issue and thinking more broadly than a case-by-case or municipality idea I understand and I do have the figure for 2022 because because I've spoken with Sarah George lately it was 54 54 people in Chinden County Mm-hmm Just in our county and the majority of them are concentrated in downtown Burlington and just to highlight your point about the police department and the fire department Chief LaChance recently saw him speak and he quoted that This year 2023 the number of overdose responses is going to be two point five times higher than the national average than the City average for the past three years so two hundred and fifty percent more These these people are back on their heels and like you say Their response is commendable To have fire department personnel working overtime not taking out fire engines, but in a van Reversing overdoses. I I couldn't agree with you more, but it it shouldn't be that way right, we should have services that are more medically based more science-based more available to us that we don't have and It's the same thing when you look at we look at the citizenship of Vermont Every place I go people are are in a deep grief about what's happening here They have a tremendous motivation to do something about what's happening here, but there's sort of almost being stopped by The status quo and I'd like you to speak a little bit about that that kind of Momentum we have To do what's best, but the fact that we're not being allowed to Yeah, I think in recognition that this has been at minimum Seven-year conversation in Vermont about hosting an overdose prevention center and really thinking about evidence-based Just interventions that Might not be popular at the time, but are actually lifesaving and so when we think of how the trajectory of overdose prevention centers especially from the state legislative perspective In 2018 was the first time that this really came up as a potential option and where we studied it and at that time We looked at biased research that came together to say that there would be no buy-in here in Vermont Within our communities to put overdose prevention centers forward that there was no researcher data into the rural efficacy of these Centers and that it just wasn't needed that's simply what the report said I remember that and we came back and We decided no we want to really focus on folks who are doing this research We want to look at the feasibility right here in Vermont based on data that we can look right above us up in Canada where there are rural interventions there are mobile interventions and When we tried to pass that legislation it was vetoed in the last biennium and the governor and his veto letter very vehemently opposed safe injection sites and that is not the language that we're using in any of our legislation because we Recognize that not only does using the language of safe injection sites or safe injection facilities Increase this idea of stigma as you and I have talked many times it creates this image of what is happening within those facilities. It's simply For myself it conjures this image of someone who is just going in to use drugs and then they're going to leave and yet When we talk about overdose prevention centers, they are so much more than that and so as we're having these conversations We're talking about yes It is a place for folks to use pre-obtained drugs in a safer manner under the supervision of medical or trained professionals and It also is not just about injection because when we're talking about safer consumption We're not saying that it is safe to consume drugs if it was safe to consume drugs We wouldn't be putting overdose prevention centers in place But what we are saying is that there are other ways that folks can consume drugs that would reduce their likelihood of overdose and reduce Their likelihood of death and that's what these facilities are. They're educational their prevention And when we look at the data as to where other overdose prevention centers are We know that about 80% of folks within a two-year time period are going to get connected to treatment or additional services where they are on that path way to recovery and so To be constantly going head-to-head with an administration that is not looking at the science Even though they are saying that they are looking for data and they are looking at the research But they are neglecting the science that is right here in the United States Neglecting the research of other health departments such as Rhode Island or most recently Massachusetts saying that these are not only evidence-based, but necessary interventions It makes it really hard for the average for mantra to truly understand what an overdose prevention center is and why we would move forward with such an Intervention and instead what we hear is more stigma about who is using drugs where they are using drugs currently and What those activities look like in our communities, especially in the realm of public safety, you know, I couldn't I couldn't Agree with you more and it's such a pleasure to To talk to someone and have someone on the show Who has actually done their homework who has reviewed the literature listened to experts more than once and And and integrated the information in a way You know that that's Not biased to open yourself and be changed by science be changed by your experience I was abstinence based abstinence centric for a very very long time What happened to me in my career was I began to see people dying when we tried to offer them services Based on Accomplishments, they couldn't meet like don't take drugs and we'll help you yeah the people that are dying on our streets most frequently are the people that are most difficult to engage and They are taking drugs in overdose prevention center just to Highlight what you're saying is a place that says come to us while you're taking drugs We care about you so much that we're not going to place unrealistic demands on you and we're going to help you to stay alive because Tragically the drugs you are taking are are lethal You know Kalen C. I know Kalen C for the viewers Kalen C is the Special project director at on point New York City the first overdose prevention center in America and and what she says is the actual observing of The self-administration of drugs at the overdose prevention center is that's the least time they spend With a participant They talk to them. They get to know them. They engage them. They help them with their needs They refer them for health supporting services 85 90% of the time spent with these people is really in a harm reduction and Health support so to call a Center like that an Injection facility is clearly the intentional use of Stigmatized language to miseducate the public would you agree on that? I would absolutely agree and I think To your point and really recognizing what is happening on our streets and when we look at our drug supply We need new interventions when there is new data being presented And so just it is staggering to think about and I didn't think Vermont would get to this point but when we were receiving testimony from the Overdose prevention centers up in Canada and the researchers doing this work. They talked about how the drug supply up there moved from being Pharmaceutical prescription opioids to heroin to just fentanyl where they're not even seeing heroin come Across their toxicology reports Yeah, and I think what was most staggering in the most in the recent Comstant meeting for Burlington was to see that The majority the vast majority of overdoses are fentanyl base and only about three of them if I'm remembering correctly We're heroin. Yeah, and then we're mixing these drugs of Extremely fatal fentanyl with xylazine So we have these overdose reversal agents in community And yet that is not going to combat the xylazine that is also in the drug supply And I think that's just one variation of the mixtures that we're seeing that is increasing this likelihood of overdose death And so if we were talking about the same Issue if we were talking about the same problem of the pharmaceutical industry and folks being overprescribed or being addicted to prescription opiates then the the Hub and spoke model actually works it works in that very limited capacity And now we have to be looking at the hub and spoke model as just one Tool in our tool belt. I think there are also many improvements I need to be made to our hub and spoke model because of the impact of fentanyl We know that buprenorphine is not necessarily the panacea in getting folks connected to medication as a treatment And yet methadone is so much more difficult for folks to access on a regular and consistent basis gosh one story that always sticks with me is When we were had the ability to go Vin and Visit Jenna's promise up in Johnson, Vermont And one of their employees there was saying how he has successfully been on methadone for the last year and When we asked about it like how is this working? How is it helping with you in getting into employment? He said well the most challenging thing for me is to get to work on time Because right now while I'm here in Johnson I have to drive an hour an hour and a half to Newport, Vermont to get methadone Before my shift starts and I have to make sure that it is within the hours that the hub is even open And so there are just so many barriers for folks to consistently maintain on treatment That it feels like we are setting folks up for failure if we are not actually looking at how we bring services back To the people who need it most I I hear you I hear you loud and clear and I know that Our wonderful mayor Weinberger is pressing now for low barrier access to methadone for exactly those reasons it works with people who have fentanyl addiction and I want to highlight the fact that There's money Been allocated by the legislature That was allocated from the opioid abatement settlement committee For exactly that But the money is lying there because of red tape and it may lie there for 16 months Because of red tape So I want to I want to just for the viewing audience. I want to say that We will be convening a panel at the end of the show with with Taylor Tanya Vahovsky representative Taylor Senator Vahovsky Mayor Weinberger and they're all they're all Weinberger and our state's attorney Sarah George And we're going to be looking at this but to just summarize for for today Tell her I think what correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there are basically three points one that there is an ever accelerating velocity of accidental overdose death in Vermont and this will continue and We're not doing everything we can about it very true to that the governor and And and and forces that align with the governor are actively Discouraging us from implementing overdose prevention centers, which are a science-based medically necessary service that will help this the same population that's dying Three that that there is money available Specifically opioid Settlement money and also we have tremendous reserves in the state coffers $264 million I read somewhere. I do not have that information Yeah, I read that I read that today somewhere. There's there's a reserve that that money That's available is not being released in an urgent timely fashion. Would you agree with those three points? Absolutely, and I think You know to the third point. I think It is Unintentional that the money is being held up. I will give them that but the unintentionality is due to Maintaining a lean government and that is something anyone a lean government and Governor Scott has been very adamant about this of not having a robust State government and instead what this means is that when we don't have positions filled within state government it takes longer and longer for us to have the solutions come to fruition so it is one thing for us to pass legislation and for us to Allocate funding from our state budget to various nonprofits or to the folks who are actually going to be doing this work in our communities It is another to have Follow-through and implementation from the executive branch on what has been done within the legislature And so my hope is that we can move in a direction where our state agencies are fully Brought up to staffing where we're not running into these workforce issues and where we're having grants that are going out in a Timely manner so that we can be responsive to these issues because not only are we not seeing money being addressed for methadone But I think another important component is drug checking That folks do not even know the drugs that they are using because it is an unregulated supply and With that unregulated supply We need to be able to know if we're not going to have overdose prevention centers How we can address or at least let folks Reduce the harm or use more safely the substances that are already going to be consuming Thank you. Thank you so so so well said and I'm so grateful to have you as a leader in our in our beloved state well, I'm grateful to be doing it and Truly honored to be having this conversation with you because I think we don't talk about it enough I think we can address that there is an issue and that it is heartbreaking and devastating for all of us in our Communities, but it is so often that we don't get to the point of what are the actual solutions that we can put in place Yeah, so thank you and we will continue with solutions at the end of the program


Everybody forced here ripping 2022 immaculate baseball hobby a box case number 18 random team style There's the results. Thanks for joining everybody and good luck. I'll let you guys know right now I'm not gonna do a recap on this break.

He just needs to learn how to catch the catch the ball when it's in the outfield That's it. That's all you gotta do Jersey card A's Frankie Montas 10 of 99 Which means the Red Sox will trade him and then he'll become a great defender and you'll have like 30 homers 20 steals Yeah, bet relic Paul Goldschmidt 24 of 25 Cardinals Goldie Again Red Sox rookie patch auto chair and Iran 91 of 99 Red Sox again Tanner how Jersey Otto 17 to 25 Red Sox are crushing it last two boxes Save some hits for the rest of the teams Tigers What am I trying to see here laundry tag Otto six of six Matt Manning.

Oh, I don't want to think about it That's gonna do it. Thanks again everybody again not gonna recap this one. We got to catch up some time here Got the finish coming up


Okay. Hello, everyone. It is a great pleasure for me to have an opportunity to talk in Open Source Summit Japan today. I am Konno Kazuhiro from Japan, and I talk about my work in an Open Source Java Virtual Machine, OpenJ9, adding support for a new processor architecture to it. I am speaking live and I speak in English in this session. I have to show this page and the next page by the rule of my company, disclaimers and notices for the trademarks. Let me start with who I am. I am a software engineer at the Software Development Organization in IBM Japan. I joined the company in 1995, and I have been working on folding and delivering IBM Java to embedded systems for nearly 20 years. My target devices include printers, vending machines, and carnivalation systems, for example. A certain percentage of you may have consumer devices at your home with IBM Java internally or had such devices in the past without knowing that, although I cannot mention the name of the products I have worked on. I became a committer of two Open Source projects, Eclipse OpenJ9 and Eclipse OMR, a year ago. I will talk about the Open Source projects in the following pages. Today's agenda looks like this. I am going to talk about OpenJ9 and my work in the OpenJ9 project to add support for ARC64 Linux. Let me start with OpenJ9. Eclipse OpenJ9 project was created three years ago in 2017. It is an implementation of Java Virtual Machine. It originates from IBM's J9 Virtual Machine, so the name is OpenJ9 now after Open Source. J9, IBM's own Java Virtual Machine implementation is a proven and enterprise-grade Java implementation. It has been the core of IBM Java SDKs for many years and has been available bundled in IBM software such as WebSphere application server. IBM Java SDK supports systems with power architecture and IBM's mainframe system Z, as well as XID6, Linux, Windows, and macOS. J9 was open sourced three years ago to reach developers outside of IBM. IBM Java SDK now uses OpenJ9 as its core. You can see the advantages of OpenJ9 over other Java VM implementation at the OpenJ9 project site. That includes fast startup and smaller footprint. OpenJ9 needs also a cloud-aware. That means it is optimized for use in containers. OpenJ9 has technologies called shared classes and AOT. AOT is ahead-of-time completion. They contribute to faster startup. Please visit the project website for more details of the advantages of OpenJ9. I'd like to talk about the structure of OpenJ9 here. OpenJ9 is an implementation of Java Virtual Machine. You may know that there is another Java Virtual Machine that originates from Sun and Oracle, which is called Hotspot. There is an open-source project called OpenJDK. Hotspot is a virtual machine developed in the OpenJDK project. You can see it on the right side of this page. Hotspot is not the only component in the OpenJDK project. You can see the OpenJDK class library in the box above. IBM has been collaborating with Oracle in the OpenJDK project for the class library since 2010. IBM has used the OpenJDK class library in IBM Java SDKs. Our Java runtime combines the OpenJDK class library and the OpenJ9 Virtual Machine replacing the Hotspot Virtual Machine in OpenJDK. You can see it in the left side of the page. There is the Eclipse OpenJ9 Java Virtual Machine at the bottom. On top of it is the OpenJDK class library. There is an adapter code that bridges between the OpenJ9 VM and the class library. This structure is basically the same as it used to be with IBM Java SDK before OpenSourced. Next page. I'd like to talk about OpenJ9 and OMR. When J9 Virtual Machine was OpenSourced, it was divided into two projects. One is Eclipse OpenJ9 and the other is Eclipse OMR. Eclipse OMR is a project that implements language-independent runtime technologies. That includes garbage collection and compiler and polling layers. The components in OMR can be used to build other languages such as Python and Ruby. There are implementations of such languages based on OMR. Please don't ask me what OMR stands for. It used to be an acronym of something, but it is now OMR is OMR. Eclipse OpenJ9 project is on top of OMR focusing on the Java Virtual Machine implementation and the Java-specific part of the components. You can see the compiler code resized in both projects. In the OMR site, the compiler component is the infrastructure for building compilers. In the OpenJ9 site, it implements the Java-specific part of the JavaJIT compiler. Now, I am moving to the topic of AAC64. It is sometimes called as ARM64 or ARMv8a. Those words sometimes have slightly different meanings, but I mix the use of AAC64 and ARM64 in this slide. Please don't care about that. AAC64 is a 64-bit architecture from ARM and it was announced in 2011, nine years ago. ARM has its 32-bit architecture and that was widely used in embedded devices, but when they introduced 64-bit architecture, they defined a new instruction set and register set. What is important here is that it is not a simple extension from the previous 32-bit architecture and there is no upper compatibility between the instruction sets. You can execute 32-bit instructions when you are running in 64-bit mode of x86 or power architecture, but that does not apply to ARM. Nowadays, most smartphones and both iPhone and Android run on 64-bit ARM processors. Japanese supercomputer, Fugaku, uses CPU cores of AAC64 architecture with vector extension. You may know Fugaku was number one in the recent top 500 lists of supercomputers and you may also know that Apple started to switch the processor in their Macintosh from Intel processors to its 64-bit ARM processor last month. As I mentioned in this talk earlier, I belong to a team in IBM Japan that delivers embedded Java solutions to our customers. It was clear that many of our customers were going to switch from 32-bit ARM to 64-bit ARM in the near future. That is the reason why our team decided to add 64-bit ARM to the list of supported architectures of OpenJ9 in early 2018. The target OS is Linux. In supporting a new processor in OpenJ9, the JIT compiler is the T component. Most of the other components in OpenJ9 are written in TNC++ and you can just run compilers for the target systems to build those components. But the JIT compiler is a compiler. It needs to generate instructions for the target processor and I will explain what the JIT compiler does later. And by the way, most of the developers of J9 and OpenJ9 in IBM are located in countries like Canada and United Kingdom and India. But I had worked with those developers around the world in 2015. That was before J9 was open sourced. I joined the development of IBM Java SDK for 32-bit ARM at that time. And I learned the structure of the JIT compiler and how to debug the JIT compiler at that time. And that's the experiences made it possible for me to work in this project for AX64. I am the main developer for AX64 support, but I was not the only one. There are two others from IBM and also there were nearly 10 students from a Canadian university who are interested in compiler technology. The students were working with an IBM laboratory in Canada through the program called IBM CAS, Centres for Advanced Studies. That is a collaboration program of IBM and universities. We used Slack and JIT Hub and we also had weekly calls to exchange our status. Development timeline looks like this. I started the development by writing calls for the compiler in the OMR project in May 2018. It took me more than half a year to implement functions in the OMR side. That includes the time for learning the AX64 instruction set and the JIT compiler structure. I used single board devices like Raspberry Pi's and Jetson Nano's development platform. Then I built and enabled the Java byte code interpreter in the OMR project in early 2019 last year. By doing this, we were able to run Java programs on AX64 Linux without the JIT compiler at this point. The JIT compiler development continued in the OpenJ9 side from February last year. That implements the Java-specific part of the JIT compiler. That includes writing runtime routines of the compiler and that took very long. It was summer last year when the JIT compiler first generated instructions for very simple Java methods. Just like returning a value past as an argument shown in the slide. Another IBM developer joined in September to accelerate the development and we were able to run many Java programs with the JIT compiler enabled by November. Then we added support for ahead-of-time completion and enabled tests in the network builds at the open source project. We spent a couple of months in dividing before we finally released the first release in April this year. That was JDK 11 only at that time, but we added JDK 8 and 15 in October. Now I'd like to talk a little more detail on what I did starting with the work for building the Java bytecode interpreter. It is written in C and C++ and it is highly portable except that there are some files written in assembly code. I had to add those files for AX64. As you can see in the file names on the right of this page, those assembly files written in M4 macros. You also need to add configuration files and make files for AX64 and add fdev lines for AX64 in many places. I needed to learn how the whole Java runtime was built. It is a very big system and takes a very long time to build. It took me three weeks in total for adding those files and for debugging the interpreter before it started to work. It was the interpreter without the JIT compiler. So it is very slow, but you can run Java programs in an AX64 environment. I'd like to talk about the JIT compiler next. As you may know, JIT is short for just-in-time and JIT compilers are popular these days and they are used not only with Java, but in other environments like JavaScript and .NET and many other languages. In Java, the JIT compiler translates Java bytecodes into native instructions at runtime. Look at the simple example on the right side, translating four bytecodes into three native instructions. In OpenJ9, the JIT compiler is also used for ahead-of-time compilation. AOT stores the compiled codes in OpenJ9's shared class cache, so that the compiled code is reduced. The JIT compiler in OpenJ9 is written in C and C++ and assembly code. Now look at the structure of the source tree in this page. This page focuses on the structure of the compiler directory in OMR. This is an OMR project, but OpenJ9 project also has a similar structure in its compiler directory. On the left side, there are platform-dependent, platform-independent directories that controls the compiler and that performs optimizing the code. The boxes on the right side show the platform-dependent directories. OpenJ9 and OMR used to support P that is power architecture and X for Intel X86 and Z, that is IBM's mainframe and there's a box for 32-bit ARM, but the code for 32-bit ARM is not maintained actively in supporting ARC64. We added a new directory here on the right and we wrote the code in it from scratch. As I mentioned earlier, ARC64 is not upper compatible with 32-bit ARM and you cannot just extend the existing 32-bit ARM code to support ARC64. This page shows the work items in the JIT compiler development. On the OMR side, it contains the capability of generating ARC64 instructions and register assignments. It also has the implementations of more than 300 evaluators. Evaluators are the functions that convert the operations at the intermediate language of OpenJ9 into native instructions. On the top tables of ARC64 native instructions, the initial version of the native instruction table was written by the university students. I mentioned in a couple of pages back, the OpenJ9 side of the JIT compiler implement the Java-specific part of the compiler. That includes evaluators for such as allocating new objects in Java or checking types, check chest or instance of that kind of evaluators. You also need many runtime routines and you also need interface with Java interpreter. We looked at the code in the P and ARM directories as the reference when we implemented code for ARC64. P and Power and ARM risk processes and they are more similar to ARC64 than the other architectures X86 and Z. The size of the code in the ARC64 directories of OMR and OpenJ9 is nearly 40,000 lines in total after two years and a half of work. This page shows the history of my code contribution to the two projects. On the left side is OMR. I started working with the compiler code in the OMR side in May 2018 and worked hard toward the end of the year. Then I switched to the OpenJ9 project in early 2019. I enabled the Java interpreter for ARC64 without the Java JIT compiler first then continued to write code for the JIT compiler. During that time, I also worked on the OMR side too because the features in the OpenJ9 side required some changes in the OMR side. I was elected to be a commander of these two projects at the end of last year and I review and merge pull requests in those projects now. I'd like to talk about challenges in the development activities in this page. First, communication with other contributors. I work in Japan and many other developers in IPM are located in North America and Europe. We had remote meetings weekly but it is not easy to have real-time communication with other developers because of the time zone difference. Second, it was the first news processor architecture that was added to J9 and OpenJ9 in these more than 15 years. People in IBM don't remember how to develop this compiler for new architecture from scratch. The structure of the JIT and the features of the JIT compiler is much different from those in early 2000. Some people in the compiler technologies have already left the company since that time. We have designed documents of the JIT compiler in IBM but they are too old and the code has changed since they were implemented. I had to read the code of other architectures like power and 32-bit arm for understanding what this function does and what that function does, how this function relates to each other. I needed to understand not only the AAC-64 instructions but the instructions of other architectures. Another problem was the computing resource. The number of the AAC-64 servers available in the projects were limited and they are used for daily CI builds and natively builds for testing. I mentioned earlier I used Raspberry Pi and other single-board computers for my development target. I had to use them because of those limited computing resources. Building the OpenJ9 runtime on Raspberry Pi takes very long. I built the runtime on X86 Linux to save time. This page shows the history of the performance improvement. It is a relative speedup compared to the interpreter in early 2019. When the first release was made in April this year, only the low-level optimization was enabled in the JIT compiler because we wanted to focus on the stability in that release. The performance at that time was around five times faster than the interpreter. After that, in May and June this year, we enabled compiler optimization at higher levels, which includes our technique called recompilation. The July release is faster than the interpreter by 16 times. We are implementing more work items in the JIT compiler to improve the performance now. The next page shows the comparison of memory sizes of OpenJ9 and Hotspot running OpenLiberty web server. I said that a smaller footprint is one of the advantages of OpenJ9. As I measured the memory size, that is in VMRSS resident memory size, OpenJ9 is 21% smaller compared to the other JVM implementation. I would like to talk about our future work. To be honest, the AX64 build of OpenJ9 is not as optimized as three other platforms, P and X and Z at this point. We have many work items to be implemented for better performance. That includes methods called improvement and inlining recognized Java methods, such as array copy. That is one example. Also, we need to catch up with new features that will be in new versions of JDK. We now support JDK 8, 11, and 15. 8 and 11 long-term support versions. JDK 16 and 17 will be coming in next year. JDK 17 will be the next long-term support version. We are also interested in supporting Apple Silicon Mac. We found that supporting Apple Silicon Macs is not very easy. That need to be changed because Apple introduced a new restriction with permissions of allocated memory for security reasons. By the way, there are some people in the OpenJ9 community who are working to enable the JIT compiler for RISC 5. The OpenJ9 bytecode interpreter for RISC 5 is already working and Natalie builds available. They are working toward enabling JIT compiler. I am helping them to implement the JIT, sharing the information on what we did with AIK64 in these two years. I am closing the talk by introducing... There is a site called Adopt OpenJDK. If you want to try OpenJ9 with the application, you can download the binaries from this site. This site distributes both hotspot and OpenJ9. Make sure you choose OpenJ9 on the right side of the page. The OpenJ9 community welcomes your participation to the project. There are GitHub repositories for OpenJ9 and OMR. You can open issues and pull requests there. If you want to build OpenJ9 binaries yourself, go to this document shown in this page for building instructions. This is the last page to summarize OpenJ9 is another implementation of Java Virtual Machine that was originally in the IBM Java SDK. I and the team added AIK64 Linux to supported platforms of OpenJ9 after two years of work. The main component that took time was the JIT compiler, as I explained in this session. Again, you can download and try OpenJ9 by downloading from Adopt OpenJDK. That's all from me today. Thank you for visiting this session. I would like to take questions. Of course, I don't mind asking Japanese questions. I see no questions in the chat and Q&A tabs. Again, I'd like to thank you all who joined this session. I'm stopping the broadcast now. Thank you for joining. Bye.


So, let's talk about the Nakba. The Nakba is the catastrophe. It is the term the Palestinians use and the pro-Palestinians use to describe the refugee reality that occurred in 1947-48, primarily 1948, even into 1949, where depending on who you want to read, but probably 600,000, 600,000 Palestinians left or were kicked out or were evicted from their homes and left to neighboring countries. Although some historians today are claiming that it's close to a million people, but that is a, as Afan Kosh shows in his book, that is a complete fabrication. About 600,000, I think is a realistic number. Some say 700 possible, but 600,000, I've been convinced that that is probably the number. The Palestinians argue that they were evicted. They were thrown out. They were intimidated into leaving that the Jews basically went village by village, throwing them out, stealing their land, demanding that they leave. So, let's put this in historical context and then talk about whether this happened and to what extent it happened. Again, I'm not going to give you the whole context, but enough to say that Jews would be coming to Palestine from the late 19th century all the way to 1947, had been buying land, settling that land. Jews during this period built agriculture, the agriculture that succeeded enormously. They built factories. This is a really untold story of Israel's founding is the role of the industrialists, the businessmen, the traders, the people who really established Israel as a dynamic, prosperous economy. And this happened. We hear about the Kibbutzim and the agricultural phenomena, but that ultimately is not where the wealth came from. That ultimately is not where most people live. Most people lived in the cities in Haifa, but in the new city, created out of nothing in Tel Aviv. Those are the people who created a thriving industrial country. And, you know, they built hospitals. They dried swamps. Palestine was a malaria infested cesspool.  And the Jews came and they civilized it. They modernized it. They bought, again, Western medicine, hospitals, dried swamps, technology, modern farming, and modern industry. Life expectancy among the Arabs skyrocketed. Infant mortality skyrocketed. Cases of malaria plummeted among the Arabs, benefited enormously. Before the Jews arrived in the area, people born in what was called Palestine, typically many of them left. There was a significant exodus of people out. Once the Jews settled in Palestine, economic activity was created. Everything, there were more jobs. There was more, you know, again, diseases and all of that declined. People stayed. And indeed, there was some in migration, population of the Arabs in Palestine skyrocketed. So, up until 1947, the Jews had come. They said, look, we'd like to form a Jewish state here. We're willing to give equal rights to the Arabs under this state. All we are asking for is open immigration for Jews to come in. Arabs have 22 other countries they can go to. We're asking that in this piece of land, Jews can come in because of everything I said about anti-Semitism and the need to protect ourselves. So, Arabs didn't like that. They don't want these Jews coming, in spite of all the benefits they received. Now, that's not exactly true. I shouldn't say that. I'd say the common person, the average Arab in an average village, actually liked having Jewish neighbors. And they respected each other and they were peaceful and they acknowledged the benefits they were getting. But the politicians and the intellectuals among the Palestinians and the Arab nationalists in the rest of the Arab world hated the idea of creating a state for the Jews in Palestine and fought it. And what that meant was fairly regular violent actions against Jews. And let me just say, I never said what I consider Jews.  People who the anti-Semites consider Jews. For the purpose of Israel, that's what Jews are, at least from my perspective. Anybody who is discriminated against because he's Jewish, even if he doesn't consider himself Jewish, should be counted as a Jew and should be allowed free immigration into Israel. All right, so in 1947, the British had a mandate over Palestine. They wanted to leave. They'd had enough. Both the Jews and the Arabs were attacking the British. Both the Jews and the Arabs wanted them to leave. The Arabs wanted to establish an Arab state. The Jews wanted to establish a state for the Jews. The Jews were willing to share. That is to establish two states. The Arabs were not willing to share. They wanted just one state and they wanted to kick out all the Jews that had come there since World War I. They wanted to kick them up. So the British went to the UN and said, UN, you deal with this. The UN sent a commission. The commission reported back and they decided to partition the land into two, a Jewish state or a state for Jews and an Arab state. And the Jews celebrated. The Arabs said, no way, no way. The next day, they already attacks on buses between Jewish communities. People were killed. They continued to be in the weeks and months following. Ultimately, the Jews in Israel, for example, in a place like Haifa, tried to tell the Arab population in Haifa, which was quite large. Look, we want to live together. Please lay down your arms. You will be equal citizens in this new state. Don't worry about it. The Arabs said, you got to be kidding. They fought back. There was bloodshed on both sides. Ultimately, the Arabs realized they were going to lose and they left. They left. They got in their cars. They got on boats. They got on trains and they left. They went to Lebanon. They went to Syria. They went to Jordan. They went to Egypt. They went to Europe. They left. And they continued leaving. They started leaving right after the partition plan. By April, and the Jews had clearly won the battle for Haifa, most of the population left. Then only a small number of Arabs remained in Haifa. Interestingly, even though there was a large, these were not, these Arabs were not all Muslim. There was a very large contingency of Christian Arabs. Even they left. They did not want to be there. They did not want to live in a state for Jews, even though they were told over and over and over again that they were welcome and that they would be given equal rights. And indeed, the ones who stayed were granted equal rights. Same thing happened in Jaffa, the largest city, Arab city in Palestine at the time. Same thing happened in the villages, in the Galilee, and everywhere else. They initiated the violence. When they lost, they all went away. And then at some point, they just ran away. Now they ran away for a number of reasons. One, they were scared. Two, they didn't want to live with Jewish leadership. Even though they went Haifa, the mayor was already Jewish, because just over half the population was Jewish and there was a Jewish mayor, could have been an Arab mayor. It was very close in terms of the size of the population. So they left because they were afraid. They left because they didn't want to live under a Jewish rule. They left because they headed the Jews, many of them. And they left because the Arab nations said over and over and over again that they were going to launch a war soon as the British left Palestine, which was scheduled for May 1948. And as soon as they came in, they said, we want to clear out the civilians. You don't get hurt. And we're going to win pretty quickly. And once we win, you can come back. Now, I'll just note that not a single Arab country fought in that war in order to establish a Palestinian state. Every single one of them fought in that war in order to grab a piece of Palestine. Every single one. Now, there were announcements in Haifa. There were people walking, going around in cars with megaphones, Arabs, encouraging Arabs to leave, telling them they should leave, telling them that is what the leadership wanted, whether it was Palestinian leadership, the Mufti of Jerusalem, Hussaini, who was a Nazi, went to Germany in World War II, hung out with Hitler, talked about the final solution, talked about exterminating the Jews in Palestine. He was a full-fledged on sympathizer to the Nazis, recruited Muslims to fight with the Nazis, I think in the Balkans. This was the leadership the Palestinians had. Once the Arab armies invaded, again, Palestinians ran away. Or were told to evacuate. Evacuate because the Arab armies wanted a clear field. They wanted just soldiers on the front. They didn't want Palestinian civilians getting in the way. Now, there are cases. In which Israel did evict civilians in population centers. In Ramele, which is near where the international airport is today, these are two Arab towns that had fought, that had, again, were part of the initiation of force against the Jews, rejected partition, rejected the idea of a state for Jews. When they tried to create, they tried to have a ceasefire, the ceasefire fell apart, violence erupted. And then at the end, the Jewish leadership decided, look, this is a strategic location on the path from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. We do not want an enemy behind us. We do not want an enemy in our rear. And the populations there were evicted. They were sent away because they posed a threat, a security threat, to the Israeli army at that point and its ability to defend itself and fight the invading Arab armies. That happened in Ramele and in Lod. It also happened in several other villages. But it's about, of all the people who left Palestine, 600,000, let's say, it's maybe 10%, at most 15%. And always, for what you have to, what you would see as strategically necessary reasons in terms of, this is an enemy at my back. Can't afford to do that. All right. So was there a Nakaba, a catastrophe? Yes. But the catastrophe was of the Arabs making. And indeed, in 1949, after the war was over, the Palestinians' complaints were not about the Israelis. The Palestinians' complaints were about other Arabs, their own leadership, the Palestinian leadership, and the leadership of the Arab states who fought Israel, who told them to leave, and who didn't win, but lost.  It's a catastrophe, absolutely. But not one that can be blamed on Israel. If they had never initiated force, then they would have never had to leave. Once they initiated force, if they surrendered, handed over their weapons, and said, okay, we're willing to live here in a Jewish state, they would have become equal citizens, they would have maintained their property rights, nobody would have taken anything away from them. But they chose to run away, to leave. And, of course, this is a catastrophe of the Arab leaders who decided to invade Israel in May of 1948, and then went on to lose the war, and strand hundreds of thousands of people as refugees. Israel, after the war in 1949, made an offer to accept the whole of the Gaza Strip, God, and in it at the time were 100,000 refugees, and accept them into Israel, and accept the Arab population that was there into Israel as part of a peace deal with the Arab states. The Arab states said, no. Indeed, the catastrophe is the unwillingness of the Arab world to live in peace with Israel, to accept this state, this free, relatively liberal, relatively democratic, democratic in the positive sense of elections, state among them, because it was free, and they were not. There's no Arab state that is free in any sense, and because it was a state dominated by Jews. So the catastrophe is an Arab catastrophe. It's fault is the fault of the Arabs. And the Palestinians, if they have any complaints, it should be to their own leadership, and to the leadership of the Arab world, a leadership, by the way, that has rejected peace deal after peace deal after peace deal for a long, long time. Could have solved these problems a long time ago.


I've been a fan my whole life. We're founding season ticket members. I started coming to the games when I was old enough to walk. I've been a season ticket holder for this my third year. And Titans games are so much fun in my favorite part of the year. I'm really honored, and I'm very humbled to have this opportunity to come. And I'm very thrilled to St. Thomas, very thrilled to try this. The first time I've ever seen this empty, normally I'm just trying to scoop past people, get to my seats, sit down, watch the free game. This is really, really weird. It's like a ghost town. Just got finished seeing the team warm up, and it's going to be exciting to see how the game transpired with only being eight people in the sand. You're going to cheer, and I'm just going to make an effort to cheer to the top of my lungs since there's only eight of us in here. Before the game, I said, hey to Arthur Smith as he was walking out. He looked at me, gave me a point. I don't want to say I helped inspire him with some of the play calls, but I don't think I did anything to hurt the Titans offense. I know we are cheering that no one else is, but me and Aaron definitely will be yelling every time there's a big third down. Be able to cheer the Titans on, it's awesome. So we're really excited to see you in a minute. We're hoping that for a win today. Fires into the end zone, both caught. But it's also kind of nice to hear what's happening. It's praying that they'll win today.


Hello guys and welcome back to my channel. For today's video I will be doing a DIY hair mask using Shikakai powder. I've seen many great reviews about this DIY and since I'm trying to add more Ayurvedic DIYs in my hair care regimen, I thought this would be a great one to try. This will be my first time using a clay type of mask so this should be interesting. For those that have never heard of Shikakai, let me just briefly explain what it is and the healthy hair benefits it has. Shikakai, also known as Akesha Consina, is a small shrub-like tree which grows in India. Its pod-like fruit is collected, dried, and then grounded into fine powder. It has been used traditionally for hair care in the Indian subcontinent since ancient times. Shikakai is used to cleanse your hair. It promotes hair growth, prevents dandruff, strengthens your hair from its roots, and adds shine and softness to your hair. Due to these benefits, this powder was named Shikakai which means fruit of the hair. Typically Shikakai is mixed with water to make a paste which is worked through the hair. It lathers moderately and cleanses hair beautifully. It has a natural low pH, is extremely mild and doesn't strip hair of its natural oils. Traditionally no conditioner is used since Shikakai also acts as a detangler. This ancient product is probably the world's oldest pH balance shampoo. All you need to make this DIY is simply some warm water, that's it. I'm not using any specific measurements, I'm just eyeballing it to the consistency I'm looking for. I don't want it too thick or too runny, but somewhere in the middle. Just a word of caution, this powder is very fine so be careful not to inhale it. It has a pretty strong smell. Once I get that consistency I'm going to pour it into an applicator bottle to easily apply it to my hair. Next I will be blending an aloe vera plant for added conditioning and also to prevent any irritation just in case this powder doesn't agree with my hair. I love using aloe vera whenever I can because it prevents hair loss, it promotes hair growth, soothes itchy scalp, it's a great conditioner, it detangles and it also strengthens and repairs your hair. Now that I have everything prepped and prepared for this DIY, I'm going to go ahead and start the application. So without further ado, let's get started. This DIY was very cleansing to my hair, I felt that it gets drippled all over the product in my hair.  But my hair feels amazing, my curls are popping and it also feels very strong. I do feel that through the process of using this DIY that I had less shedding, I experienced less shedding. I actually expected to have more shedding than I did but it actually lessened the shedding a lot so I was very impressed and pleased by that. And overall I think my hair just held up very well. So going forward I will be using this DIY and incorporating it into my natural hair care and just doing more things with it. But it definitely will stay in my natural hair routine just going forward. I was a little hesitant initially to use this. I've actually been sitting on this DIY for quite some time because the first time I used it as a patch test, it did irritate my scalp. But I noticed that this time I did not experience any irritation which was really great. So I really didn't have to use the aloe vera but just in case I just want to use it, just in case it started to get irritated later. But no problems, no irritation whatsoever. It took to my hair nicely. It cleaned my scalp really good. And I think a lot of that is due to the shampoo bar that I had been using because it does have the shikakai in the shampoo bar. So I think over time of using the shampoo bar it just kind of conditioned my hair and my scalp to really take this ingredient. So yeah, I will definitely be continuing this in my DIY. So I'm very glad that I gave this product a try, a fully gave it a try because it does make your hair feel really good and cleansed. And again, it's a great alternative to using a traditional shampoo. If you don't want to get the shampoo you can definitely get a shikakai powder and get a real deep cleansing of your hair. So I really enjoyed this DIY. If you guys would like to give it a try just watch this video again. It's just two simple things that you need to do but I'm sure you will love it as well. So also don't forget to check out my Amazon store. A lot of the products that you see me use in my videos that you see me do DIYs and product reviews on are in my Amazon store. You can check it out. I'll purchase it. But I hope you guys enjoyed this video. If you did don't forget to like, comment, subscribe. It's Jess Janine. I will see you guys on the next video. Bye guys!


another one, another live video for you out here in the woods, hope everyone's having a good day, so this is a discussion video, I did a premiere earlier today when the narcissist realises they play themselves, definitely check out that video, it's a really big one and this is the discussion video, so I'd like to hear from you, tell me about your experiences where the narcissist realises they play themselves and this is actually a common misconception, people think that they never come to this conclusion, they never think that they play themselves, when that's really not completely true, there is a moment there's a small window where they do reflect, where they realise what they've done and how they've just caused their own demise, especially if you bring it to their attention and that's why you see the narcissistic injury, that's why you get the rage, if they didn't know at some level what they did and how they sabotaged their own success, why would they be so mad, but like I said there is only a small window, it goes very quickly, they fight it and then they just shift up, they shift the blame on to you, they want to make you feel like you're at fault, but yeah I'd like to hear from you, tell me about your experiences in the comments, narcissistic abuse survivor says my ex is playing it hard saying that she has bared her off without me, she feels alive again, I was the miserable nasty toxic part of the relationship, yeah that's how they want to make you think, they have a dualistic mentality where someone's either right or wrong, all good or all bad and you have to be the bad person for them to feel like they went at fault, but yeah at some level they do know, they do know what they did, they do know what they've caused, that's why you see the injury, that's why you see the rage, if they didn't think they were at fault they would be very peaceful, the reason why they're so mad is because that's when they entertain that idea and then you just see them trying to deflect it, but when they're deflecting something it's because there's something to deflect, something to think about, just how you're at the beach, yeah although there may be that small window where they're forced to entertain the idea that they messed up and that they played themselves, they are going to do whatever it takes to fight it, they're not going to entertain that idea for long periods of time, so you're never going to get a narcissist who admits their faults or mistakes, that's never going to happen, they're just going to leave you and then they're going to find someone else, someone who doesn't know what they're really about, thanks for the donation, God's child, we are just out here sitting by the beach, just enjoying life and that doesn't mean that life is perfect far from it, but that doesn't mean that I won't take some time out just to appreciate life, just to appreciate nature, you have to get out here and appreciate these things, don't let the narcissist get you down, you have to enjoy life, even if that is the last thing they want you to do, you still have to do it, you have to do it, you have to practice self-love, it's an act of self-care for you to do that, the narcissist may not approve of it but this is me live giving you permission to do that, to enjoy life, to be out here on the beach, this is what we're doing, we're just out here, we're doing this, I hope you can appreciate this with me, sometimes I just look around and it's like the abuse has taught me to appreciate things I may never have noticed before, like sometimes I just look around at the sand, the waves, the sky, even when it's full of clouds it's so beautiful, I feel so blessed to live this life and I don't just mean being a YouTuber, just being alive is really incredible and I love every moment of it and I know not everyone is there yet but I know that you can all get there with time, with healing, just have to take it step by step, appreciate the small things, everything you see, take it in, take in the beauty of it, marinate in it, let it become a part of you, 110 live viewers, I appreciate you all, I'd like to thank you all for your support, thank you for joining me and I look forward to talking with you in another live video hopefully tomorrow so you all have a good day


Hello friends, welcome to the session I am Shashi and I am going to help you with the following question. Question says the probability that a student is not a swimmer is 1 upon 5 then the probability that out of 5 students 4 are swimmers is we have to choose the correct answer from A, B, C and D. Let us now start with the solution. Let us assume that x denote number of swimmer students in 5 students. Now the repeated selections of students are Bernoulli trials, we know Bernoulli trials are finite in number, they are independent, they have exactly 2 outcomes success or failure and probability of success remains same in each trial. Now since event of selecting student is independent and number of trials is definite that is 5, so the trials that is repeated selection of students are Bernoulli trials. Now x has binomial distribution with n is equal to 5 and p is equal to 4 upon 5, we know n represents the total number of trials that is 5 and p is the probability that a student is a swimmer. Now we are given that probability that student is not a swimmer is 1 upon 5, so probability that a student is a swimmer is equal to 1 minus 1 upon 5 which is further equal to 4 upon 5. Now probability that student is not a swimmer is represented by q it is equal to 1 upon 5. Now we know probability of x successes is equal to n c x multiplied by q raise to the power n minus x multiplied by p raise to the power x where x is equal to 0, 1, 2, till n. Now we know x represents the number of swimmer students in 5 students. Now probability of 4 swimmer students in 5 students is represented by p x is equal to 4 which is further equal to 5 c 4, you know n is equal to 5 value of x is equal to 4, here value of q is 1 upon 5 and n minus x is equal to 5 minus 4 that is 1 and value of p is 4 upon 5 and here we will substitute value of x that is 4. Now this is further equal to 5 c 4 1 upon 5 multiplied by 4 upon 5 raise to the power 4. What we can write it as 5 c 4 4 upon 5 raise to the power 4 multiplied by 1 upon 5. So probability that out of 5 students 4 are swimmers is given by this expression. So our correct answer is a, so this is our required answer, this completes the session, hope you understood the solution, take care and have a nice day.
