Okay. Everyone else ready? Okay, it looks like FPGA is much more interesting topic choosing by the number of attendees here but now we are going to talk about PCBs. Why did you place me right in the lunchtime? Is that for a special reason? Okay. We are talking, my name is Patrick and today I want to like to introduce you Zazaf. The working title you see on the FOSTA page is Ruby Bindings for LibGovView because we came up with the name Zazaf like four days ago so I did not have any time to update it. The clever guys of you may recognize the name, otherwise just ask me later. So has anyone of seen these windows here? They are out of the eagle, cut soft eagle, out-of-desk eagle, whatever you call it. The resolution is quite bad. If you do not recognize this, these are the windows to penalize a PCB. You can do the same, you know penalizing PCBs if you want to order them at a PCB Fab and you only have tiny one, you add some more to get a cheaper price. You can do this in KeyCatch 2 using the Python scripting functionality but what I ask myself is why are we doing this within the EDA CAD application because actually tasks like penalization are CAM tasks because they are not about your project, they are about manufacturing of your project. So this is a really red stop sign for me. If it comes to penalization, adding D-cuts for the Fab so that you display them where to cut your PCBs, fiducial drills of the actual PCB because you do not want to have them on your project but they are more a support for manufacturing the PCB. So what I ask myself is why are we using EDA applications like KeyCatch, Eagle, whatever for these tasks. I think the reason for this is that right now we have no open source CAM tools at all. If you have a tool, please shout out. Yeah, GovView. But have you tried to draw a frame around your PCB with GovView? That's the point. Yeah, GovView is totally fine for viewing PCBs. I know a lot of PCB VAPs which use GovView because it has excellent GovR support for visual proof of the PCBs. But what I discovered is that actually LibGovView, the library behind GovView, is actually able to not only display GovR files but also to edit and save them. But none of this functionality is represented in the UI application. Everything is in the back in the LibLibrary. So the homepage says GovView is split into a core functionality library and a GUI portion. Developers wishing to incorporate GovR pausing, editing, exporting, rendering into other programs are welcome to use LibGovView. So I thought, oh wow, this is handy. Why is no one using this? If you look up LibGovView on Google, you get the documentation and that's it. No one is really using this library. So I thought, okay, there must be a reason for it. So I did some experiments with this library using C and it was really a struggle to use it. And usually this should be suitable for electrical engineers where the profession is not only software development but also hardware development and they are not able to use LibGovView, the C bindings, because it's really, really complicated. So we found a solution for this and the solution is Ruby bindings for LibGovView. I have two examples for you. The first example is adding fiducials for PCB assembly to the PCB and the second one is penalization of a PCB. The resolution of the beamer is quite low. I hope this will fit. We start off with this example. So I'm not able to mirror the screen so I have to look at it on my own. What we do is we create a new shot of project. This is the same as what you get when you open GovView. You have an empty project where you can add single GovBar files. So we start off with an empty project and then I add some GovBar files to it. That's the same as you drag and drop or plus in GovView, add more GovBar files because GovView does not know about what kind of GovBar files this is right now. I have some handy regex here in the end which just extracts something like top copper layer or board outline out of the file name and then adds it to the project so that we are able to recognize the files later. So after adding all the files, what we do is we take a bounding box of the PCB because we want to have the exact dimensions and then I want to add a few fiducials. So fiducials is used if you mount the parts on the PCB. This is a camera system which recognizes the fiducial point for the absolute placement of the roboter. So I want to have most PCB assembly lines require this to have at least three fiducials on the corners of your PCB. It's really important and here we are adding three fiducials to the upper left, bottom left and bottom right corner of the PCB and this all scripted. So if we change the dimension of the board, the bounding box will change and then the absolute position of the fiducials changes accordingly. So in the end I just iterate over all the fiducials I just created, draw them on a layer that's done using the raw GERB view call. So the bridge class is used to take the bridge over to a lib copy and then we are just saving all the files with fiducial and the layer name. So let's give this script a try. Ruby to fiducials. Performance is quite good because it's a C binding, so nothing actually working. Now we take our beloved application GERB view to check the result. I will take this solder mask top layer and board outline and will invert the color of the top solder mask and what we just did using this script is to add these three fiducials over here and this is all done by script. So this is really fast, it's reputed so you can run it over and over again and the next script will do a penalization. So what I want is I want to have this project on a new panel in four rows and four columns. So in the end I want to have and up with 16 PCBs on my panel and I do this with this line where I say okay to the image please add the image from the project and apply a transformation and the transformation is basically just a bounding box around the PCB multiplied by the column and row where we are right at the moment and because it's handy for our PCB fab we create a zip file in the end. So what I expect by running this project is to take our GERB files, read them, penalize so that we end up with 16 PCBs and then save them within a zip file. That's it. We check the result. So I'm going to open the top layer in the board outline because it's sufficient to see the result. Here we go and now the nice thing about this is we have a self-contained script with just one dependency. The dependency is GERBView and what I really like and what I'm passionate about is to take software engineering techniques to electrical engineering. So now that we have the script I thought okay maybe we can use this in continuous integration now. So every time I check in new GERB files into my JIT repository I automatically want to have this panel ready for order. So let's see. So some of you may know I think all of you know GitLab and GitLab has a really handy continuous integration and this continuous integration is run by a JITLab CI file and what this JITLab CI file does is it installs or first it checks if Ruby at all is available then it installs Joseph and then runs the penalize job and the penalize script itself is within the repository and in the end we create an artifact that's the result of the continuous integration job and the artifact is named by this name. So what we end up is we call it a new GERB file to the JIT repository. All the CI is run and then and that does not fit on the screen here we can download the penalize job. So no more struggle with opening some UI application just run the CI which actually run automatically download the zip file and send it off to the PCB FAP. So we could extend this even more by adding v-cards for our FAP everything automatically and it's okay these are the benefits now I will go on with the presentation. So what are the benefits then? It's really easy to install just if you're using Debian Ubuntu whatever aptitude GAT install GERB view for the OS X view this here just brew install GERB view and then you can actually use it. Next thing is no UI necessary I think that's that's a feature because all the CAM applications all the commercial CAM applications I know have a huge UI and you have to do hundreds of clicks just to get a panel or add a few lines so it's really complicated and I prefer code much over clicking UI because I can check it in into source control I can actually see what it is doing and this is really important I guess for hardware because we want to check is there some change in it then it's battle proven we use this binding within our company and we do PCB manufacturing every day so we never got an issue because of the binding or of GERB view so and GERB view itself I guess is really battle proven because it's the last release is like five years old and it really has great compatibility to the current GERB standard and it's high performance but this does not really I don't care about the performance because it's run as a currency and that's fine so what is the current situation about this project then as I said we use it in our company okay five minutes left thank you we were able to pull down the cost of PCB manufacturing for low quantities in a domestic fab by 70 percent because of this library because all the tasks which are right now done by hand we can automate them with this library so that is also the reason why all the features are as requested by the company's interest so there might be features missing which are important for for single use cases but they are not added yet the coverage of the whole GERB view functions is about 80 percent but I have no plans to extend this but because some functions are not you just do not use them then the test suite is there is a test suite that's a good thing but it's really really basic so it checks if drawing things work and if the GERB file is properly formatted but that's it and what you might notice if you look into the source code it was split out of a larger library like a few days ago and sometimes you notice that there are some deadlines so what I really would like is to have a new GERB v release because the last release as I said is like five years old and we have some recent changes which for example make it possible to rotate PCBs right now the release included in the main distributions are not able to rotate PCBs and some other features are also missing and I don't get why there is no effort to make a new release so if anyone knows that guy because all the comments on the GERB view did repository come from him please contact me so that we may can organize a new release so if you want to super job of and you are not a software developer just try to use it as much as possible because this is I think really important for such a project then report issues if you have if you have any knowledge about software development the task I would prefer is to add some more high level usage because I guess the script I just showed was like 30 lines we can shrink it even more then extend the R-specs huge that's not a really nice task but has to be done and some features are missing like font text support it's not a possible to write text on your GERB files right now so just lines circles rectangles and something like this no text at all so if you like this there's a coupon code for my company if you order PCBs regularly cheapest price in Europe with domestic manufacturing that's it thank you questions yeah I heard of God merge I used it like half a year ago so the question was if we have heard about God merge what I do not like about God merge is is that it implements all of the Gerber stuff on its own and it's it's not really complete so there are situation where does not work and from an open source perspective I think it's much better to work on one project to support Gerber than on different projects it's pretty active that's the reason why I don't get that the latest release is from 2011 yeah look up the Debian packages so Ubuntu packages but it's really really hard to compile I tried it and the the make scripts and all the auto configure script is really outdated so I wasn't able to compile the current masterhead at all I tried the mailing list but when when I last tried there was no effort with this jam maybe now it's more successful to give a reason because I guess the reason why there is no new release is is that as GERB view itself has no editing functionality there will be no release for lipgob view with editing functionality because they if it's not within the UI application no one will use it so you can delete elements yeah that's it you can delete elements but the lipgob view has much more functionality there's a question over and for testing you want to test them all at once so you want to have like traces on the panel so that you can just plug in your whole panel into a test rig and all was tested at once okay so the question was is was if I do a panel where all the projects on a panel have overall functionality I want to check I've not seen that use case of a panel I see it much more from the manufacturing position and there the point is all the time put as much projects on as a really small place that's it one over here I use it for example to count drills you have to find single single subjects to check on for example what an idea of mine was to do some checking if for example the paste layer changes you could create a hex digit digest out of the paste layer and then check if it changed so that you know if you have to do a new stencil or not that might be an idea but but you can run aspect tests on your gubba files that's right one over here uh I know this you're right now you look like you're just supporting scoring and writing so there's no more there's no like margin between the boards like you don't not all boards are square and you're not going to always be able to snap yeah the reason why there is no space between the boards is I wanted to keep the example script as simple as possible just add a little spacing so you know just add plus and measurements are in inches here and you have margin that's it that's a nice thing about scripting right you have basic drawing functionality use this just just draw a few lines what we do is we usually mill the PCBs so we draw a milling pass but creating the milling pass is another topic but adding the milling pass to a gubba layer that's the task of Shazaf one question over here panel or the manufacturer I guess you send the whole panel to assembly and then how do you get the updated coordinates for all the all the parts you place on the panel um Shazaf is not able to process pick and place files but my advice is to write down a file with the coordinates given here and then just add them using excel I mean it's Ruby you can just write the file and have the top left coordinate of the of the according PCB it I think gubview has support for picking place files but I did no research on it and as picking place files are somehow arbitrary so everyone has different picking place files I think is really hard to get a binding for it that's it thank you


The Internet of Things IoT faces several challenges related to privacy and security. These include improper device updates, lack of effective security protocols, user unawareness, and popular active device monitoring. To address these challenges, we propose a new IoT layered model consisting of three distinct layers, cloud, edge, and IoT. This model is implemented using the Amazon Web Services, AWS, Cloud Platform, and a Raspberry Pi 4 hardware kit with support of the Greengrass Edge environment in AWS. Security protocols and critical management sessions are established between each layer to protect user data. Additionally, the model utilizes security certificates to facilitate data transfer between the layers. Furthermore, the model incorporates the best security practices to counteract potential cybersecurity threats. This article was authored by Lowe AI Tawalba, Fadi Muhidat, Maze Tawalba, and others.


Okay, so, well, I'm going to introduce with my English from Premier de Mar, so sorry for my English, but I have the pleasure of to introduce Angela, who is the head of programs and contributor, yeah, contributor experience of Automatic, we have Angela here, and in fact Angela lives here in Spain, in Madrid, but is her first time here in work in Barcelona, because, well, this work come is the last work come was in like five years ago, so it makes sense. And, well, she's going to talk about leadership, and I think that everyone can be a leader, or everyone has some skills or some little skills, and she will talk about it, and how we can improve in the community, in the WordPress community with improving our skills. So, let's start with this talk, fostering the WordPress of tomorrow today. Thank you, and applause. Hello everyone, and thank you for letting me give this talk in English, I would love to be able to give this talk in Spanish, but I'm not quite there yet, but one day. So, yes, I am the head of programs and contributor experience at Automatic, and I am very fortunate to be able to say that I love my job, I get to work with contributors around the world, and do this incredible work together, and it's with that in mind that I'm really excited to give this talk today, because WordPress has this big mission of democratizing publishing, and while that creates a lot of like wonderful connections and fun, it also unlocks a lot of opportunities for people who otherwise may not have them, things like building digital literacy, and also really advanced tech skills, and so we create a lot of opportunities, both through networking, professional opportunities, we find business partners here in WordPress, and so in my role, I think a lot about this, how do we sustain and make really, really resilient what we have here today, and continually improve that for tomorrow's WordPress, and what I firmly believe we need to do is this, leadership at all levels, and this is something that I think is already there in the WordPress community today, but we may not necessarily recognize it right away, and so what I'd love to do today is to help you see what leadership at all levels is, and how we can bring more of that into our space, and so when I talk about leadership at all levels, this is about a belief that leadership skills and behaviors should be present at all levels throughout an organization, not just for like a few people at the top, and it's grounded in a belief that leadership, excellent leadership is a shared responsibility. It's not something that just a small group of people should have, and the first time I ever heard about leadership at all levels, it was quite a long time ago, this was before I joined the WordPress community, and I was working at a consulting firm where I was the receptionist. It's a very important role, but not necessarily one that people think of traditionally as a leadership role, and I remember I had a performance review, and my boss asked me, he said, how are you demonstrating leadership? I said, well, I'm the receptionist, I'm not a leader, and he looked at me and he said, Angela, you are the receptionist, you interact with all of our clients from beginning to end, and by communicating well and consistently, that's one way that you lead by example, and that really changed my view of what leadership is, right? Because when we think about traditional leadership, we often think about hierarchy and decision making, and if you are a manager at a company, how many people report to you? But that's a really narrow view of what leadership is, and if that is what we measured good leadership against, it might be how many people report to you or how many decisions that you make. But when we think about really good leadership, we think about the qualities, we think about excellent communication, ability to inspire others, to help people through a crisis, to unblock things, to make connections, to make informed decisions, and so by challenging this notion of traditional leadership and having leadership at all levels, we're able to do that in a more resilient way together. We're able to inspire others, welcome more people in, and really think about how we set ourselves up for the future. And so this brings us to leadership in the WordPress community because like our traditional view of leadership is that there's a hierarchy, right? But the WordPress community, we generally don't really like hierarchy. We try to be as anti-hierarchy, hierarchical as possible, and we do, I said this earlier, we do practice leadership at all levels. We just don't necessarily recognize it as such. And traditional leadership comes up, that hierarchy comes up because as you scale, you do need some structure. It makes sense. It is something natural that happens. And so in the WordPress community, we do have some hierarchy. We do have, whether we like it or not, we had to have structure. And so we have Matt Mullinweg as the project co-founder and Josepha Hayden Champosi as our executive director. And so annually they are the ones who put together a vision and the top three things and share that with everybody. However, that is not made, those decisions aren't made in silos. Those decisions are made through tons and tons of input that they gather throughout the year, through conversations and discussions. And so by and large WordPress, this is how WordPress is led through coalitions. We have a lot of discussions. We connect in Slack over on the make WordPress blogs and we discuss a ton of things over and over until we have all the information we need in order to make those decisions. And so it is in this everyday work that we see how leadership works in the WordPress community. And so my personal mission here is to grow leaders at all levels within the WordPress community because what it takes to make things happen in this community, to work together, to communicate together, to make decisions together, those are all exemplary leadership skills that we need. And so I hope that everyone in this space can think about how they are leading and how they can set the best example for each other. And to do that, we start with you. How are you leading in this space today? And what leadership skills do you already have?  And I see them every single day in the WordPress community. And so I hope that you can kind of realize that you have these. And if you don't believe that, let me tell you the other secret about leadership, which is that all leadership skills can be learned. And so it really takes intentionality and practice. But we all can do it. And because I find frameworks very helpful, I'd like to share this framework with you called the four stages of leadership. This is a really common framework when it comes to growing your leadership. And there's a lot of different versions of what I'm about to share with you. But this is the one that I find is most relevant to the WordPress community. And so the first stage of leadership is called self-leadership. The emphasis is on being able to lead yourself. You're showing up, you're holding yourself accountable, and you're using the knowledge you already have to contribute to the space. A really good example of self-leadership is team reps. The basic expectation of what a team rep does is that they show up to the team, they put together an agenda, they facilitate a meeting, they put up some notes afterwards. That's all it takes. But by showing up consistently, you are leading in this space. And so that's a great example of what self-leadership is. The next stage of leadership is direct leadership. And in direct leadership, you are actively taking on more responsibility. You're proactively taking on more responsibility. And it often looks like helping somebody else out. So at this point, you have knowledge around how to do something. And so you go, you see somebody else trying to figure it out. And so you say, hey, can I help you do this? And then you walk them through it, and then they're able to do it on their own. And a good example of this is a polyglots, a GT or a PT. They review translations, they give feedback, and they help a new translator make a translation. And the third stage is intentional leadership. And here we have a distinct break between the first two stages, because the first two stages are based off of knowledge that you have. In intentional leadership, you may not have all the information. Leaders never have all the information. If we counted on leaders to have all the information, we would have no leaders at all. Nobody has all the information. But in intentional leadership, your confidence continues to build because you know the value that you bring. And that value often translates into being able to solicit input, to gather lots of opinions, and bring together lots of people to make decisions. And so, yeah, you're constantly seeking input, facilitating dialogue, and holding others accountable as well. A good example that we see in the WordPress community is what our community deputies do. These are people who are familiar with how our community team works, with how word camps and meet-ups are organized, and so they work together to guide how the community team itself continues to grow. And the last stage of leadership is mentoring leadership. And here, the emphasis is on modeling the behavior and not necessarily doing the thing yourself, but helping others discover their leadership, knowing that they have to find their own style. It cannot be exactly the same as yours. And so, here, you are leading by example. You're creating opportunities and sharing them with others so that they can take on more leadership roles as well. And so, in these four stages of leadership, none of this is tied to hierarchy or decision-making, but it is tied to experience and willingness to lead. And we see a lot of this across the WordPress space, and I would love to see more of it, because I think having this really sets us up for long-term success. It would really change the way that we bring people in and help them continue to grow in this space. Now, the four stages of leadership might help you recognize where you are in your leadership today, but it's not necessarily the most immediately actionable. And so, I wanted to take some time to talk through things that you might be able to do today that are all excellent leadership skills and behaviors to practice as you interact in this space. And so, yeah, here are some quick thoughts. First is be the example. Beyond just giving advice or showing people how to do something, think about how you show up in this space. In any community, people will look to each other to know what is acceptable, especially new contributors. And so, by showing up in the way that you are most proud of, you also set that example for others. Then I want you to listen and be really, really curious, because this is how we hear and this is how we welcome other people and help them feel very included in this space. A great way to do this is to ask a lot of open-ended questions. How did you get started in WordPress? What do you hope to achieve here today? And this is a really lovely way to gather information. And beyond listening, I want you to actively seek input. How are you getting feedback and getting opinions and thoughts on the projects that you are doing? And this is really valuable, because what your perspective is just one side of things. And if we are building WordPress for everybody, we need lots and lots of opinions in order to make this the most reflective of who we are building WordPress for. And so, be bold, be clear in your communication, tell everyone what you know, what you don't know, and ask for their thoughts as well. And this is how WordPress builds coalition. This is how we make decisions to the best of our ability. And when you do share information that you have, do it in a way that encourages further input. If anybody here is into improv, there's an exercise called yes and, where one person says something and then the next person says yes and then they add another sentence. And this is a really lovely way to build together in a very encouraging way. Sometimes we do have to say no, but say no, but, and then provide context as to why we do need to say no, and what we can do instead. And then give kind of feedback. I know feedback sometimes can be a scary thing because we often associate it with negative feedback. But feedback can also be positive feedback. In all cases, it should always be constructive. And giving, if you're going to give feedback, do check in with the other person to make sure they are willing to receive the feedback because feedback is a two-way street. It's a conversation. And by giving feedback on the work itself and providing lots of context and describing what the impact is, we are able to know how we want to continue to working, how we want to continue working together. It's also a really excellent skill for any manager to have as well if you do work in a more traditional environment. And then I want you to go and create and let others have opportunities. If you are constantly the one doing that one thing and nobody else can do it, that also means that you are less open to new opportunities. So the more that you can think about what opportunities you do have that you can encourage others to have that makes you less likely to be a single point of failure and it also opens you up to take on something new and keep growing yourself and celebrate all the successes because who doesn't love a good celebration? This, I think all too often sometimes we focus on the hard things and the failures because they draw our attention and it's easy that we keep working and keep working and we skip past all of these successes but celebrate them because there's a lot to celebrate and it's worth sharing that with your teammates. And so these are just some very quick and very common leadership skills and behaviors that anyone can do today.  And this is what I want you to do. I want you to reflect on a leadership skill you already have. It could be something I mentioned here. It could be something else that you've identified. Think about all the great leaders that you look up to. What do they do that you want to be able to do? And I want you to commit to applying it this week at least once. Try for a few more times. All right. And that's really all I have for you today. I love talking with people about growing leadership. It is something that I personally find most gratifying about my work. And so if you want to talk about leadership, I have a ton more recommendations than what I just threw here today for you. And this is how you can find me. So I would love to hear from any of you. If you want to try in Spanish, I will do my best. But English is the language that I am most comfortable with today. So thank you so much. Congrats, Angela. Thank you so much for your talk. Well, let's go with the questions. The first one. Yeah. Okay. We are going to translate it. Okay. In English. Thank you very much, Angela. We love your talk with your speech here. Thank you very much. I just have a question. You mentioned the word democracy. And I wonder if you understand the organization of WordPress. Would you describe it also as a meritocracy? I don't know if this word exists in English. Yeah. So, yes. So hopefully everyone can hear the question since it's piped through the microphone. But the question, as I understand it, is earlier I mentioned that WordPress's mission is to democratize publishing. And you were wondering how it ties into the concept of meritocracy. Great. Excellent. So meritocracy is a concept that has been part of open source for a very long time. And it is around that by showing up and consistently showing up, that is how we gain more power or decision making. We have that our voice has a little more weight in the project. We gain, what am I trying to say? We have merit by showing up consistently. And so where meritocracy fell out of favor with open source was that it's not everyone can show up consistently. Not everyone can show up safely. And so we have abandoned meritocracy to some degree. There have been updated definitions of what meritocracy looks like in a more equitable way in open source. And so I do think some of the updated definitions of meritocracy do apply. But yeah, I think when we think about democratizing publishing, I really, the question that I really love to ask is if we are building WordPress for everyone, how are we hearing everybody's voice? Not just those who are able to show up today. Thank you, Angela. Very good reflection. Do you have some book recommendation about leadership? So many. One of the best books that you are reading about. So three or? Yes. I don't know. Two numbers. Thank you. Leadership books. Yeah, I mean leadership is one of those topics that is written about extensively. A few that I really like. Simon Sinek. Leaders eat last. The coaching habit. And then just one more. I'm going to say being strategic by Erica Anderson. And the culture map. Yeah. That one is really good for working around the world as we do, because there are so many cultures. The way we work with each other is incredibly different. And so putting together, like I said, I love frameworks, putting together some framework for that has been really, really wonderful for me. Really interesting. Okay. Another question. We can throw this. So, I mean, why do they say it in English? We can translate it. So if someone wants to speak in Spanish, or in Catalan, of course. We are here. Or in Calego. I don't know can see. Hi. Thank you for the presentation. I'm interested in the from the perspective of leadership. Can you please explain in a few words how WordPress stands apart in the open source community? How the WordPress community stands out in the open source landscape? That's a good question. You know, one thing that I've always found really interesting about the WordPress community is that we've taken open source, because open source, the concept of open source was originally tied to code. But what we've done is taken these open source values around like everybody being able to read the thing and take it for themselves and build on top of it. And we've applied it to the way that we work. And so that is really how the whole WordPress community works. Whereas some of the other open source communities, they only apply open source values to just the code or to very specific segments of their community, not the whole thing. And so that's one thing that is very unique about WordPress that I particularly enjoy. Another one? Come on, Nora. In English? Okay. Let's do that. Thank you very much for your talk. Sometimes when we are trying to be in leaders in a project, in a group, we sometimes misunderstood leadership with being like the protagonist, it's okay to say that. I mean, to be the main person and to keep the others in that spot, do you understand me? Not quite. Sorry. I mean, when you are trying to be a leader, like, okay, I'm taking the leadership of a project, sometimes we misunderstood it and we've become the one person, the person who is above the rest. Can you recommend us something we have to keep in our minds to avoid like a collapse on the rest of the people and being a leader, but not being the protagonist of the thing? Yeah. Yeah, I think, yeah, that's a really good question. I think sometimes as it's challenging, right? Like, when leaders often will have a very broad view of things and feel that that is holistic enough, I think one question that all leaders should continually continue to ask themselves is, what am I missing? And how do I go about seeking that kind of information? Who am I not talking to that I really need to talk to in order to take the next step, to make a recommendation, to make sure that I am connected with as many people as possible? Okay. Thank you. Okay. Thank you, Nora. Another one? Hi, just a question. Two years ago, I discovered a concept that originated with me in terms of leadership and sort of teamwork that was using vulnerability as an asset to connect with other people. Is there anything that you have discovered, some style of leadership that has challenged your view of leadership or has challenged you to see leadership in a different light? Yeah. Yes. One concept that I really like to use is where a leader should be if they were leading a group of people. And so if a group of people are in a room together, are you the leader that stands at the front of the room? Are you the leader that stands in the middle of the crowd? Or are you a leader that stands at the back of the room? And I really like this visual representation of leadership because it really represents different styles of leadership, right? And one of the most challenging things about leadership is that there is no one right way. It's depending on the situation that leadership is most effective. And so if everybody is in a crisis and things are not going well, sometimes a leader being at the front of the room and saying, all right, let's go that way is really helpful because it gives that kind of grounding sense of like, okay, we're in chaos, but we have a direction to go. A leader being in the middle of the room and working alongside everybody is a really empowering thing for the whole group. And if the group is doing really well and they're, they have direction, you know, you don't want a leader there saying like, okay, everyone, now let's go this way. Instead, you want a leader at the back of the room saying, great job, everyone, let's keep going. And so I really like that visual representation when I think about leadership and where I want to be with a group of people. So yeah, yeah. Okay, that's question. If there's anyone. Okay, yeah. Okay, so this question is more about your experience itself, because as a woman in interest in tech industry, it's been complicated in order to scale, let's say, or to have leadership roles. So my question will be because I'm right now in a position where I'm growing in the field, let's say, and I hope every day together to gather a little bit more of leadership. So what will you say are like three tips or something that you can give to someone as in my spot for a woman in my spot that can be taken into consideration for good leadership? Yeah, surround yourself with people who are supportive and who are going to be helpful and who are who are helpful in a very constructive way. And it is it is really hard in in this world to to there are a lot of people who may want to get in your way. But just as much there are people who will support you. And so surrounding yourself with the people who are who want to see you succeed and will celebrate your successes. That's that's very much my my top suggestion. And then discover your own leadership style. Everyone's leadership style is going to be different. There's no one right way.  And then never stop learning. There is I think leadership doesn't just stop. You just you have to keep learning and you have to be willing to to iterate just like word for us. And so the more that you are absorbing information and continuing to grow yourself, I think that's a really a really powerful thing. Okay, thank you so much. Okay, the real last question. Okay, more. Anyone? Okay, so let's thank you so much.


So can you guys hear me okay? One moment while I get everything situated. Nina makes this a little bit higher. Higher. So that I can see, you guys can see what goes on. If you're new here, hi, hello, what's up? I'm Erica. This is Madeline, Jeffrey. And going back here, I'm being a very amazing director. He directs like a silent director. He is a silent director. Y'all can see everything okay? So we, Tudor actually brought us these ones. They're plastic. I haven't done them plastic, but we're gonna see. And we got some these, which I went ahead and coated this one so you guys wouldn't have to wait, but they're they look like this and they have a light inside. I didn't even know I got these on our thing. Seconds I'm gonna add them to our thing. So since I went ahead and coated that one for you, you can go ahead and start adding colors. We're gonna do some things that are a little bit different this time compared to the last time. If you didn't see what we did last time, we swirl some pouring medium. This is by Vallejo. You can use a gloss Mod Podge as well. So I'm just gonna add them to the thing after the live because I have to do it from my computer because Jeff and I both order Christmas stuff for each other.  That's so great. What's up JJ? Thank you so much for visiting us. This week we've eaten half of everything. So if you guys didn't see the last one, here's an example of what they do look like in the process that we're doing them. These splotches that look a little bit different. They have some variants. That is from the something gum Arabic that we're gonna put in there. Otherwise it would just look also fun but have a little bit less dimension. So if you use the gum Arabic, you have to put it in first. It gives these cool dark bits. I'm actually gonna do, I'm gonna level up this one that I already did by using some, this is a UV resin that I got on Amazon because I'm out of the ones that we do. Well, since your goal is to just have only that in there, then yes, you're doing that right. I just put some UV resin on my this and I'm gonna set it real quick for it, it's too far. And then I'm going to kind of dust gold on it in my head. That's what I'm gonna do. So what was your goal in that one? Just to have this color in here. Oh well crushed it. So when I asked you to come art with me and you were like, I'll do one. Your one is just to put some color in there. Well, I didn't know they have lights in them. So if using UV resin doesn't take long, it doesn't take long to cure. I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna like let this aim at it. It's mostly here already. Have you guys made your own ornament? If you guys were with us the last time we did ornaments, then you saw me do this. And I just kind of sprinkled a whole bunch of my primary elements on here and dropped some of my pouring medium on. But it did this on the other side. So now I'm like, I want to refine this because I think it looks really cool. So I brought some of our coasters over here as well. And notice that this is ultimately what you want it to look like. Not any dripping. There's some drip in this corner. You can see it, but that's what you want to avoid having too much up. Because if it drips, it's gonna streak your design. I'm gonna get you guys up in closer to the action. Just put them in there, bang it about, dump it out. I would put my thumb over the opening. What colors have you used? I used some gold interference, abalone shell, gold. Sounds like it has not a whole lot to stick to. Done then? Yeah, I mean, if it has nothing to stick to then.  And then the last thing I would do is put some of this copper or gold in there because that'll fully fill in any opening. So this is the gum Arabic. This is where all my splotches are going to be. I accidentally put a little bit of color in there before. You always want to beat the devil out of it a little bit. That will kind of jump your color from one side to the other. These holes are bigger than the ornaments that I usually use, which is pretty awesome because you have more ability to manipulate it, I think. I'm just gonna use all purples and gold. That's gonna look super fun. This is gonna look amazing. So mine's gonna look pretty great. So it's not telling me that you guys made your own. Oh my goodness, I miss so many messages. What's that Vegas maniac? How are things? Lights, game changer, right? I hope I fixed camera being too far away, Pamela. Adding some interference red. Sue said she did this last year with plastic ornaments and that the color has come away from the sides. I haven't used plastic before. This is my first time using plastic in my glass ones. I haven't had that issue, but now that I'm using plastic, I will be able to tell you what I find out. Only the red and purple ones. Most of mine have reds and purples in them, so we'll find out today. I'm gonna put some of this dark color in there. So funny, it like sets up and then what's not set up, it comes out of the drip. I had one of those too. So maybe can you get that up there and show them what you're talking about? Really difficult to see. We're like 10 feet above our table. Hello, hello, hello. Thanks Miss Pam. Have a good night. So what he's saying is that as he's curing the UV resin, it's still continuing to drip and so it's like folding over the existing drip. So bear in mind, hey Cynthia, have a fun clear coating your counter. Can't see much blue in that, but I'm gonna put some gold and then let this one just do what it does. So you can still see that Dom Arabic is still big white splotches, but those big white splotches will turn into these dark, awesome areas. It just has to soak in the pouring medium that we had in there. Now I'm using some old gold. You know what I'm thinking? This stuff should do it. It probably will, but it's not really sweet at all. I have to wait till it's fully appeared to peel it off. So I'm gonna let this one live and then we'll come back to it. That's strange too. I got nothing. What's up Ginny? How are things? I'm gonna do this one blue and yellow because those are Tudor's favorite colors and heart tutor. And he got us these. I'm gonna take my pouring medium. I'm using Vallejo, but you can use whatever. You just swirl it around in there. You want to get a good coating, but you don't want to have so much in there that it takes forever to get out. You want to get as much of it out as possible just so it's not fully dripping, but just coated or else your design is going to kind of droop. But I will show you guys what that looks like. I'll do this one. Oh, what if you put this stuff inside? What if you put this inside of it, powder in, and then set it. That's what you're going to do, light change. What if you shine a light in the hole? I know, but I wonder what I wonder like... That could be it. The mixing the water into the Mod Podge could have made it the binder a little bit weak. I don't know. I've never Mod Podged. I mean, never watered down Mod Podge for the inside of it. I guess maybe I could only have what, only half my brain is here. I'm refilling the hot tub. That is an awesome place for your brain. Okay, so I've only been draining this for a moment, but you can see as soon as I lift it up, we'll start to get a bit of drooping where it's kind of running back down. You can kind of see it. Maybe, maybe not. I can see it. I don't know if you guys can see this kind of drip right here. You know, I had it too close because I forgot I zoomed everybody in. It's all right here. Anyways, when you're looking at your own piece, you'll be able to see it drip and you want to just get a little bit more of the medium out before you get it going with it. Actually, I'll just do it with as much in it so you guys can see what I'm talking about in terms of the drip. If you want to reuse your pouring medium, don't have it right under where you're adding color. It will mix together when you're swirling it around. Maybe let's do it on one of these ornaments that you can get on our website. Shameless plug that way. Once you put one of your colors or the spirit gum in there, you want to beat it about just a little bit because you can barely see the light. You want to be able to see the light on mine. You can see the drippy right here because it's got a little bit of the spirit gum in it. That's going to keep moving because I didn't let enough of it drip out. Anyways, so the reason why we do this is because it's fun. It lets out aggression from the holiday and if you keep the spirit gum that's too opaque, then the pouring medium can't penetrate it all and it'll leave a little bit of a white area instead of fully turning the color of your. Oh, that's actually a pretty color, that olive color. I mean, that's what you can do with your leftovers is turn it into a color because that's boy cat. Every time we're live, he tries to get into the merch. He wants to just lay on your merch and get the boy cat hair on them so that we can't sell them. I am now adding some gold interference. Who's gonna love this ornament? Ooh, it's such a pretty color blue. It looks like midnight blue from this resin. It's a little bit more teal in it than it looks like it has in the how pretty that is. This stuff is all water soluble, pretty sure. And so it would be an awesome thing to do with family when you're home for the holidays, the holidays. You too for fighting. Boy cat, this blue is called something nebulous star from primary element. So you can see it having that runny look here instead of just the splotches of color because of the amount of pouring medium I have in it. That's okay. It'll still be awesome. Jeff is just gonna put some also some laguna, which I think is a pretty green that's also in your color wheelhouse. Wipe it off. Here is handy for coaster slash ornament.  One day in major box stores, box stores, package stores, Ikels, I'll be lobby, the gum Arabic drives white and tips. So fractured fairy tales. You're saying that when you did this whole process, these bits where the gum Arabic is never turned into just splotches of the accent colors, it just stayed the white color. Glam and a tee. What's up? How are you doing? I know the blue is amazing. Yes. Okay. So that could be from two things. Either you're not letting enough of it come off by doing this. You do this a little bit more.  It's a very fine powder. Very fine powders can stick together. That's why when you mix a powder into resin or a pouring medium, sometimes you get those little freckles of color that don't really blend in because finely ground pigment can just stick together. So there's that.  There is such thing as having too much of your pouring medium run out, or letting it dry a little bit before adding your color. And then when that happens, your gum Arabic doesn't fully soak up the pouring medium. It's not going to kind of dissipate into your color. It's going to stay white. Those are the two things that I've encountered personally with gum Arabic. We're doing good. So you think this with a holographic glitter would look good? Maybe I'll do that on the top of it. A little less at a time and Wackenmore is definitely, that's definitely options to get it to work better for you. So what you're doing at Nextra, I think that's pretty where it like falls, but it's not going to stay. So I accidentally got some gold on the outside and it kind of just went, I love how it like fades off like that, but it's not going to stay because it's on the outside. Unfortunately, ooh, that looks even more fun. But it also is going to stay. I guess I could just leave it and then like spray like an archival spray over it. Tutor's gonna love this because it's his favorite colors. That's just a little song I like to sing sometimes because you don't know these are tutors favorite colors. We should put on here tutor second Christmas because we didn't get them in one of my last year. If it's hollow, I need it, but that's not surprise. I actually got in some black halo powder. Pretty awesome. Let me go get it. I don't have it in the store yet. I've been wondering what I'm doing. I'm making gold frosting or look right. But well, I'm going to paint the back. What I'm doing is I'm just trying to wipe this excess off, but the stuff sticks to everything. So it's really hard to here's my black halo doesn't look like amazingness yet, but just you wait. Oh, the back looks fun. And the back looks fun. Yeah, but it's really like, there's like, that's way different from the back. Doesn't she always wait, what? Oh, yes. Is that the front or the back? Oh, it looks like it has your shadows on it already like the front, but the back looks more awesomer. So it's lemon and tea. If you want to get some of the black halo powder, just order some oak lawn on the website and just in the notes, but black. So I'm just going to coat another one. I'm not going to put it in here because I feel the wasteful. I'm going to put it into here so I can pour it back into there. That's getting so extra right now. And right now he's winning on the coaster off that I didn't even know we were having. I wonder if I put some more pouring medium in here if it would kind of wake up. I think I drained this one a little bit too long. For this one, I need it to drain a fair amount. I'm not going to be doing the gum arabic and all of that. I'm only going to be putting this glitter in there. I'm not worried about gum arabic, like being like woke up with the pouring medium. I'm not worried about color slouching. Well, I am. I'm worried about my glitter slouching. And so since I'm not worried about gum arabic staying white or anything like that, I'm just going to pour out as much as I can. And I guess I'll just start on that. Okay, so this is what I'm going to do without fully filling it with like color because that's going to keep the lights from and I don't want the lights need to be green. Here's with our barks. How are the our barks today? Slash how's dancing going? Hope amazing because your screen name is still one of my favorites. Which reminds me, anybody's seen sour cream lightly? I still have a little bit too much. So I'm just going to take a sippy. Okay, they can't do what you're doing. Another layer over this will be shiny. Probably just smooth it about with this. Happy I cried a lot. I found you and subbed a few weeks ago. Well, thank you. Are y'all in Dallas? Yes. I heard Oplon. As in Dallas area, I used to live there. Goodbye. Do your way. Yeah, we live in Dallas. We actually have a loft downtown and we love Oplon. And so we named our super sparkliest rainbowy glitter after one of our favorite neighborhoods in Dallas. Also that. Hey guys, we'll just so adhere over a canvas that has been sealed with polycrylic. I don't see why it wouldn't suit them, but if you're really concerned about it, you can funding primer. Definitely assist. If you weren't live and having so much going on, I think also tilting it back and forth like that's going to give you lumps. You'd have it leveled off how you want it and then horizontal. Okay, I'm going to do one with some breakaways. I'm going to try to add everything in kind of this vertical fashion. So when I hit it, I'm just going to hit it down like that so that everything just stays all vertical. I've never done one like this. So I'm a little bit nervous, but also okay. Okay, so there we go. We have everything in up, down, fashion, friends. Words are hard. Keep on memories too. Y'all are awesome. Thanks for your hits and so much info. It's our pleasure. We love art and we love sharing what we know and helping other artists to become the best artists they can be. So we're here for it. Thank you for watching and loving. Leaving me, I have a suggestion. What about doing a monthly pack up of any new pigments and or tools that way we miss a lot of, we know what's new and exciting. Jenny, that is not a bad idea. I thought about doing something similar to that like literally a monthly subscription that just maybe is the top four or maybe top eight new colors or products that we have in. That's a great idea. We have our this. I guess this one's open so we'll start with this color. Vertical, vertical. I'm gonna try to go basically right over where the gum Arabic is so that I can leave some openness for the lights to shine through. In theory. I don't know. The holly days. I think doing this vertical nonsense. I can't hold the question. Oh, yeah. Two more ornaments and then two.  It's almost scary, isn't it? What's the plan? I think I need like a brighter. Is there any update on the resin mixer stand? VAMP messaged that company after the last way brighter than I anticipated. Maybe it'll calm down once it starts to mix with the corn medium. VAMP emailed them for me and I don't think she's heard back quite yet. PG also emailed the resin mixer manufacturer. They said they'll be emailing you in the product code slide. Oh, yes. That's what. Yep. Now I remember. They did get back with VAMP and said that it's like on Kickstarter or something. Something to that effect and I don't know. I don't know why they would send me something that wasn't fully live. That's right. I don't want it to cover up everything. I'll leave it there because it's going to cover up everything. Oh, you can see what happens when it runs. It's running around this gum Arabic, but you can see it's already starting to soak in. Just because I'm impatient. I'm going to just go ahead and light this up. I'm so festive. It's going to look super good once the gum Arabic gets soaked in and all that. They have a lot of stuff, right? I also asked them about carrying it in my shop. I haven't. They haven't gotten back to me with pricing. I guess that's something that comes post Kickstarter knows, but as soon as I hear back one way or the other, I will let you guys hear. I could be the first to know. So the light is definitely a difference maker. Betty Brody, how are you doing, ma'am? I get to see you a lot over in Rhonda's videos. That's missing. Peter's going to love this one. The fact that you said the Lighty Uppy ornaments makes me want to hold it. Do you have your phone or phone in it? Then I'm going to go to the computer and add it real quick. The Lighty Uppy. Talk to the people who they know what that is. Trying to do a mix, mix, mix. A mix, mix. The blue. I really wanted the blue to show. I didn't put that much. So nice. This blue is really good. Places show up a little more. If one of you lovely mods can add our influencer shop link to the chat feed, I went ahead and put, oh my goodness. I really like that. How did you do that? I tried to mix it.  Yeah. Guys, look how rustic that is. Oh my goodness. I love this. Did you put any of the gum Arabic in here? You don't, but it would have like brought out these dark browns. I love this. I like these little hints of blue. It looks like a baby blue patina. Thank you, JJ, for putting the link in the chat screen. If you are watching this as a rerun, click in the description box below the video. There's like an Amazon stop link, and that is everything that we don't carry in our shop that we like to use on the channel. On Amazon. Looks like rusty copper rights. Oh, that's a good idea that gets me in yet. You're visiting Tucson. We still live in Tucson. I hope you have an awesome time. I used to be visiting a family. Jeff did jump outside the box, and I am super excited about it. Okay, so I'm going to use this. Oh my goodness. I hope it's not dry already.  You made my like new favorite ornament. So hopefully I let enough of this kind of droop out so that my color won't dip. Do you guys see the rainbow in this? How does it just lay in rainbow? I have questions. Can't like how it's made. Okay, I'm at like a precipice. Should I continue letting it be black halo all the way up, or should I put like gold powder in to fill the rest of it, or just put a light in it for some strain ornament? I get that. Silver, that's a great option. I'm pretty sure I have some 002. Now I have to do one of these. Now I have to dirty for a powder. Well, what I did is I put three of them in, right? Yeah. It's like pouring the paint. Do you think it goes next to each other, but not this? I scraped the sides of it. It's okay. I'll just put more oak lawn in there. Black oak lawn. I hope that fills in. If not, I'll keep it clear. Another contrasting halo. So the other contrasting halo I have is silver. I hope it would make much difference. I need a filler. I need a background filler filler, but I don't know if that's going to ruin the look of the halo. I guess that's where you're for. We use a test so you don't have to. So let's just put a gold back there because I have it open. I don't know where my silver is. So everywhere that the color kind of scraped, you can see, and where it scraped off, it kind of chunked up a little bit, and the chunks kind of relocated themselves when I did that dance move. I'm not mad at this at all, but I'm going to wait to put our lights back in there till it cures a little bit. So this is one of the first ones I worked on today. I'm just trying to cure it up a bit, and I'm going to add gold. But I don't know if you guys can see this nub right here. That's what Jeff was talking about before with that first one he was working on. That it kind of kept slumping as he was curing it with the UV light. So that's like two different trails of UV resin. You could also do this with hot glue. Hot glue just may not look quite as flat, but it may not look quite as quote unquote drippy. What would happen if you put a two-phase powder in first and then black? It would look awesome. Do you have any interference colors? Those would look funky with black halo behind them. I do have some interference, but the black halo is heavier. So I don't know if that would really show through that well. Now that I have this UV resin in kind of a tacky state, it's basically dry, but not quite. There's a little tack to it. I'm going to go ahead and dust on this gold powder. This one is old gold from Color Passion. You can use a number of different kinds of golds. Just make sure that it's like a metal powder, not just a gold colored mica because it's not going to look the same. The shine on it don't look very different. Give a shout out to my husband for this idea of putting the resin out and then dusting it with gold. I said to my husband, that's crazy person in there. I'm going to wipe off this excess. You could wait till everything's done setting to do this. It's probably smarter to do it that way, but I don't have that luxury because we're live, so I'm going to dust off what I can now and then I'll really do that. It looks like that. It looks like a little top's kind of melting down. Now you can really see those like kind of looks like candle wax. I'm loving it. Just regular. Could you use Elmer's glue on the inside if you've dented out a little bit? I mean, I've never used Elmer's glue, but ultimately that's what a mottage is. I don't see why that wouldn't really work. What's up, Jerry? How are you doing? This is the one we had a little bit too much of the pouring medium in, so since I had it laid on its side, it all ran. So I'm going to let this one set upright. Oh yeah, I want to try to do one like Jeff did. What colors did you use them on? They were this bold. And so you put the powder in like powder here, powder here, powder here? Yeah. Yeah, I'm so nervous. Oh, Danielle said she's done it with glue and it goes okay. This is not what you like. Is it? Do you see that, Aurora? It might have been because there was one, it was a brown that wanted it to be that brown with the blue, you know? Like why does it look different here than when you open it? Like it looks like it's a purple. I thought I had a deeper brown here. Oh, was it this one? Yep, but it's kind of chunky, so drop this down a little bit. This is chestnut. How much of this did you use? Um, that many? Yeah, put a lot more blue when you do that, because the blue is what really makes it look, octopus. I'm going to use lagoonazool a little bit. It goes to green. Don't have a good patina blue. No, it's not that fun aqua. Arctic opal. I'm just going to put this aqua. Oh, put that over there with where the oasis is. And then the gold. I like tilted the top so that you know. How much gold did you put? More than that. Two. I'm going to use gold and a little bit of this rose gold. This 006. Is it good? Why am I so nervous? A plant. Mod Podge is better because it's thicker. Got it. Have you guys ever used resin thickener for vertical poor dust? And you have trying that out later this spring.  Gravity is still getting gravity. Okay. TG just had drum roll. I don't even have one of these thin things, Brett. So give me just a little bit longer of a drum roll. Anyways, so since it's vertical, you still may have issues. I have something called High Build and it's from, who's it from? You like him out of the UK? It's called High Build and it's okay, Bowie. He's in the kitchen wanting a present. So High Build is a lot like that stuff that has the thickener in it, but it's still going to droop a little bit. So just be mindful of the fact that it's done a droop. In my opinion, the best way to address a vertical surface is to just pour it on like foam or a thin MDF that you then mount onto the wall. Sorry to get distracted, but I got to let a little bit more of this drain out. So let's just, while that's draining out, recap. This is something that I'm kind of trying to recreate, but I'm going to try to not forget the gum aerobic. Y'all, let me forget to put that in because I think it would bring out some character in this. Also, Jeff did this one. I think it's nice and soft. I like it. Ooh, see, that's what the gum aerobic does, these dark bits. I'm hoping I didn't let too much of, yeah, see, hoping I didn't let too much of the pouring medium dry out before I did that. This awesome design is because I tried to put the lights in there too soon and I just, oh, but that looks crazy. Scrape the edges. So then we put some gold in there to fill in the gaps. I'm just going to do that with that, with the blue, but I wondered if it would stick to it. After you scrape it? Yeah, I was going to like put one of those sticks and just go and turn it and then pull it upward. So it'd be kind of a spiral and then see if that, I don't know, but I think you have.  And you could wipe those edges off of it. Yeah, cloth. I was just going to let it be for a minute. We have this guy that's still relaxing. So since I turned it vertical, all those sideways drips are going the way I want them to go. So just be mindful of that. If you want your design to be vertical instead of horizontal, make sure you store it upright because that was not a mistake. That was not bad. And then we have this one that we did for Tudor is starting to soak up the gum Arabic parts. And where those were, there's those dark marks. Looking pretty cool. I think he's gonna like it. Tudor, second Christmas. And a happy hole. I forgot about this, this one that Jeff did. I don't think I have enough room for the holiday. Well, there's your happy hole. So I got your TG right there. It is a way to put any drip. So we've let it drain out. I turned it upright. It's still got a little bit extra in there, but whatevs. Okay, now B, tell me about your application. When you put it in there, what? I didn't put anything like that in there. I know, I'm making mine a little bit different. But when you poured that in there, did you like turn it? I just put it in there and they just started shaking it. Put it in there and shake it. I think I did turn it. Is my cup bent anyway? In case we're gonna smack the devil out of it because we don't want our spirit gum to not dissolve. Because if you leave it... Spirit gum? The gum gum. The proper gum for this. If you don't beat the devil out of it, you're gonna have peaks where your pouring medium may not be able to penetrate all the way to the front area. So just beat the devil out of it. Since I'm like, how does the light work? Oh, they came in our ornaments. It's just a little this and it has a little this on the top. So it's just a little teeny tiny baby string of ornaments that are in there. I mean, nope, the string of light that's in our ornament. Well, definitely turn them off. Like when you go to bed. I'll be running. Oh, for sure. I don't know what kind of batteries in there, but I'm sure it's tiny. But having if you add the gum Arabic to the pigment powder first. I'd imagine that it would just be an all over darkness. Yeah, it's just going to make your color dark. So the reason why we do add it is to give some like depth of tone like these dark splashes that are here. They'll be fine. These darker splotches. That is from the gum Arabic and you just have it all over in there. And there would be no variants of tone. It would just be all the same. So for example, this is a gum Arabic spot. This is a gum Arabic spot where it's soaking in on these areas. But if I just mix it in, then it would all be this color, which would be fine if you were looking for all that color. Now. Okay, this isn't a very long one. So we're just going to just go turn it and pour it or turn it.  Well, I am after you start smacking it around, put it in the camera view. You are not in camera view. Oh, I could leave it just like that and be happy. Shake it up so I can do this. Ready? Go. So that other color that we put in, get out. You can go. It actually, do you guys even see it that like lighter brownish color? That is something. Where did it go? It's here. This Arctic opal, which is basically like an interference. See kind of blue, a oval color. I cannot wait to see how this looks after it sets up. A little bit of waste, but that is a color that I may use later. It's like a platinum blue. I'm going to use that later. Look, I like it. All the magic. Yeah. I definitely like the more brown. Where did you go? I wish we had like a fun happy medium between what I did and what you did. However, your blue is starting to turn. It's not longer this color blue. It's like where it's with the browns. Anyways, I'm going to be excited to see how this goes. I'm going to store it upright because I've got to let things fall where they may. And I'm just going to leave this out for Minyana. I will be live tomorrow early because tomorrow is our last day here before we go to my family's for Christmas. So if you need anything from my shop, get it in tomorrow because after that, you're going to have to wait till we get back in a town from Christmas. I've never put the pouring medium after the everything was in there. So I'm just going to see what I have. So yeah, now's your chance just coating the inside and then I'm going to dump it right. So for today, if you want something before Christmas, the pouring medium I'm using is Vallejo pouring medium. You can also use Modpodge. Bolden has pouring medium. Just make sure it's a gloss and that it dries fully clear. That's what Gum Arabic is for is watercolors. Super jealous that you make your own watercolors, Danielle. I'd love to see how that happens. Do you have the big glass that, is that what mulling is? Oh yes, polycrylic as well can work. So I hope you guys enjoyed this feed. I don't know what I'm going to be paying tomorrow, but I will definitely be showing you guys what these probably maybe just wrapping presents live tomorrow because we need to do that. Fun fact about mine and Jeff's presents for each other this year. So here's what happened. Let me get the mic because so here's what happened other than baby presents, which are those, those, those, those. So Jeff and I order a lot for each other off of Amazon for Christmas because we don't have time to go shopping, etc. So I ordered off of our business account so that I don't see what Jeff got from me and vice versa. So he used our personal account, but they're all just willy nilly together. And I have no idea who's is who. So basically, we are going to be wrapping presents and putting a question mark on the two and a from me and him on the from because I don't know what else to do. Oh yours are from Santa's, Santa's shops at Amazon. Hmm, that's awesome, Danielle. Anyways, that is what our Christmas is going to be. But I will show you guys tomorrow what these turned out looking like. And we're going to get crafty with different wrapping options and making bows and stuff. So hope you turn in tomorrow. Don't know what time, but make sure you subscribe and hit that notification bell so you can sometimes probably have the time knowing we go live have to open them first. Ooh, that's not a bad idea. But also I think it's kind of cute that maybe just opening, I don't know, maybe to open that's that's a good idea. I didn't even think of that. No, but he could like open them here and be like, this is Erica pile. Sounds fun, actually. Good luck, Danielle. If you have any questions, we started our own shop. I'm happy to help if I can be of assistance there. Anyways, Devon, I haven't really eaten anything today. So we're going to go do that. And I hope you guys have an awesome evening. We'll see you back live. And yeah, till then, be kind to one another because you never know what someone's going through. And always remember, we do the tests. So you don't have to also guess what? My face is a stencil. They'll be live on the site soon.  Anyways, see you guys tomorrow. Bye.


All right everybody what is going on and welcome back to another video welcome to well, it's a recap of the 2020 NFL combine in to What's just occurred over the weekend, which is the 2020 NFL draft and I'm looking forward to it I hope you guys are too you've probably watched it I haven't I've done exactly what I normally do when when a series of video comes out when it when it's games or if it's Interviews or if it's highlights or if it's anything anything that comes out that I know I Genuinely have a real interest in watching that and I really want to bring these videos to my channel. I will Purposely not read a thing not watch a thing not look at a thing and if I do see something It's like a consciously or unconsciously don't take it in because I'm like there's no point I don't want to do that. I don't want to know anything before watching these videos And that's exactly how we come to you as today so With that being said I haven't watched any of the draft and it's been extremely hard It's it's happened over the last three days But one of the reasons why I didn't do that is because I hadn't watched all of the workouts from the combine So today we've got a job We do have a job to do and the job is to get my head around the top players at the combine And then go and watch the draft with this information still fresh in my head and I can't wait to do it So guys I'm gonna be completely open and honest and transparent. I have a Entire plunger of freshly made coffee. I've got my laptop I've got a whole selection of videos that we're gonna run through I'm gonna get the screen recorded going and let's get into this shit now I'm gonna address the elephant in the room my head if you've watched the previous videos you would have seen this This creation you could call it in the middle stages, okay, it was between brown and blonde now What I'll say is that I'm actually not I'm not yeah, I'm not complaining. I actually quite like it I don't mind it. I really don't So I don't know how I'm gonna keep this hairstyle, but the way that it's looking at the moment It's not a bad color. It's not too yellow. There is parts at the front, but that's because it's wet If you look on this side, that's nice and like Nordic Ice white blonde and and I quite like that. So if I could have that color all over my head, it might just be the lighting I'm not sure. I'm still a little I'm still a little bit self-conscious, but we're working on it. Here we go Okay, so with the combine I watched the 40-hour dashes and I knew at the time that that's probably not gonna give me the information I needed so I knew that I was gonna wait till the draft I could go back watch the best of the best of the workouts get to know you know a little bit more about the Players and then I guess start to make my own mind up as to who these first picks are gonna be and then watch the draft as if It's live So with that being said guys the first video of the day is best of Quarterbacks workouts at the 2020 NFL combine. It's had 1.8 million views. It was brought out exactly two months ago and It's 13 minutes long Let's get into it You Let's try again. Okay, Justin Herbert Oregon. He looks tall. That's not surprising to me anymore First of all start off I'm gonna 468. I mentioned these cornerouts a little bit earlier 50 hours now Watch how easy this just comes out. Just an explosive arm from Herbert You've been talking about him. Just let it rip let it go and on these corner routes We've got a chance to see him do just that hang on your back leg look at the air I'm up there. Just really pretty balls. You see him Again drop back couple hitches on that one a real tight firm ball Rich there it's always interesting looking at where Their hands and their fingers end up after throwing and the reason I look at that is because the first time I ever looked at a video Trying to learn how to do a spiral. I got told that once you let the ball go Your throwing hand is almost going to come down as if it was like a seatbelt Across your body and it's gonna be as if your throwing hand ends up in your opposite sides hip pocket and That's one thing that struck me and that's similar to his motion As DJ was talking about a lot of times when you watch Herbert throw, that's a nice route You know, we always say is a quarterback You just got to get back and let it go. You got to trust yourself and let it go But a lot of times it looks like he's aiming out. You saw that on that first slam He's like aiming, you know Kurt Justin Herbert never took a snap under center in college And so this is all brand new for him as well as this for a lot of these guys To get your weight going back and get set on the top. This is a nice. It's a nice route Okay, this is all about the quarterbacks, but all you guys know already the only people I'm focusing on are these wide receivers running routes I love it Holy shit, he is over six feet six inches tall Monster much more comfortable really pushing this ball down the field 236 pounds he looks That's almost a hundred. That's almost 110 kg and he doesn't look big It's amazing how that extra like four to six inches on top of a six foot guy How much weight that actually adds to a body. It's you see him starting to let it go a little bit down there Yeah, I mean, I think this is where he finds. Oh my god What a throw I think this is weird that looked effortless from the 10 To the 35 Yeah, he likes that And again on the from the 10 to the 35 what a ball The love work out in the next group and you've heard his name with Indianapolis Well, if they go out and get full up rivers of Tom Brady, maybe that changes their plans for what they're gonna do These are just bombs Is there anything to the borough bangles saying You've heard his name, you know mentioned prominently with the Dolphin so like the Miami Dolphins Thanksgiving will never be the best conference for the egg It's Herbert again See I'm watching this and I'm thinking the closest thing in rugby that we have to a ball traveling in That trajectory having a guy in a rugby team on the wing just like a wide out run forward and catch the ball on the on the full We have a play that is similar. It's just the ball gets kicked Not thrown and the player that's going to catch it has to stay behind the kicker So that's it. That's as if this wide receiver Has to stay behind the quarterback until the quarterback releases the ball and then he can go forward to try and catch it That's the basis of the rules around rugby Little bit trying to guide that one. Just just let it go man. Let it rip That one's better. You're always looking for that turnover too, right?  I 10-5 in the broad jump. That's pretty good That's something that what is impressive. I wonder where he went That's the cool thing about this is we watching this and literally today. We're gonna be able to see where they went in the draft How good Be measured instead of just letting go just getting back and let it rip Jalen hurts.  I don't want to see it. Oh fuck sake I Jalen hurts Jalen hurts, you know a lot of people Bucky Brooks is somebody that's you know, you you might have something with him I think he could come out of this thing when it's all said and done people he can do as a playmaker and you're seeing That's one to 20 He's got some things to clean up, but there's there's a lot to work with there as bold as bull doesn't seem to be quite as long Jalen hurts has sometimes his vision and anticipation which you're not gonna really see in this setting But we saw the athlete that he is and you see him to throw the football the ball is live It jumps out of his hand and watching him go through the drop right here I think his feet when you stack for some reason he reminds me of basketball player I don't know if it's about his look or what but he looks like he should be playing point guard Relax and not coming up But you're right. I mean the biggest thing is this kid is an athlete He reminds me a lot of a Russell Wilson type player that It's a little bit of a gamble there potentially Herbert doesn't have any of those issues. So if it's close if you have those guys very close Honestly, I think it's because of his haircut Because a lot of football guys have at least something going on on top of their head I think I have to a pretty good bit ahead of Herbert, but those are the type of discussions that are happening with these teams Yeah, I mean, I think that's the worst tape of him Earlier this week and just thought man if there was no questions about health Man, it was neck and neck with him and Joe and I could see a lot of guys go the other direction You just start to wonder on what did you have elite quarterback here when you find it good, you know That was not one of our blessings man you Okay, well, I've just completely missed something I was talking about is here they're talking about Quarterbacks here now. Why is that are they saying that a quarterback has to have a pretty out there hairstyle because I'd have to agree Excuse me the day Elite quarterback here We've got it we've got to get to side by side because people were and I think he wanted some time really to evaluate There's a lot that goes into expecting a four six eight. I can't remember. Oh four fifty-nine You need to be accurate for this throw I guess to as Jalen hurts for him today on the field and Not bad as well ran a four five nine brought down to ten five vert 35 inches Jake from You're saying Justin Jefferson to add the tape That we've seen to the four four three that he officially ran That is quite a night so far. Here's Jake from of Georgia I Had a chance to study from I have watched it Let's say a long ball Doesn't have a big arm rich, but you will see with him timing anticipation He's had this thing on his whole life So he knows how to navigate around some of those concerns get the ball out early Nice catchable ball. I don't think he fits every team But I think there's a handful of tea reminds me of Derrick car and don't tell me you don't think the same College Atlanta makes sense to me you look at And if they are and let's say They decided to marriage They're rare company. I was gonna guess Vincent Jackson, but I guess Vincent Jackson long ball Jack just they ran four four six This guy is flying down the field I used to cheat this thing I had such a noodle arm and I had the quickest five you've ever seen and I just popped that thing up As fast as that good This guy Jake yeah, Jake George Jordan love I watch it and the big thing is I don't want to see his feet ever come together You know you get to the top of the top you want to see that base so you stay in a passing position You see right there still little push small little he has March 18th or something that is correct How many how many yards is this route? It looks like it's 15 yards into a 90 degree turn From the 15 to the 32 Short order 17 that comes out nice Jordan love So Matt Patricia's comments after it was discussed that Matthew Stafford might be correct Yes, and his stance on it versus what we've heard from the Raiders. That's my It's my point Hey, yeah, yes, sir With the Jordan love you talked about him moving up Is he a guy that plays or is he a guy to sit back and allow him to develop and mature?  Oh, he's a red shirt for me Steve. I'm a red shirt him for a year beautiful lose that We've never Love more than we need love Great throat Jordan love let love rule You're looking maybe top 10 for Jordan love. I mean, it's not Yeah He's neat Steve. I look good enough to be proficient those other ones early You can swing back around for some of these wide receivers. They also have some office alignment on their roster Who are not a job who are not the type of office? Likes to use in a running game. These are guys who are heavy That receiver was explosive They aren't like that Ryan to Leos. These are guys who are really stiff in hips the Cleveland The Cleveland Browns coach said he was just about to tell them that Until I came in Could that receiver actually see that ball to tell them that yeah, he's looking up now, okay During the broadcast that is not easy to do These are these his best throws or every single one of his throws because Some of these catches some of these routes run a pretty incredible And I'm thinking if he's just throwing bomb after bomb after bomb all these quarterbacks I mean that hasn't even been one drop pass, but I'm pretty sure that's because they're only including the highlights But anyway wishful thinking I'm gonna think that we're seeing every single one of their passes I'm gonna make my judgment on that Yeah That is beautiful sight Absolutely beautiful sight those massive bombs and it's quite cool because we can see we can see the actual trajectory of the ball without you know the crowd and the smoke and the the flames the fans the colors the flags And everything else like drowning out the ball That it's an empty stadium. We can see the ball. We can hear everything. It's quite a cool concept and I just cannot even imagine how cool it would be to be there as an athlete Although I was thinking before imagine all these top quarterbacks top running backs white receivers as they come together that first day As they come together to you know that we're looking around like you know Sussing each other out they would have known the top prospects from the other schools and all they've done throughout these Previous three years or whatever. It's just played against each other, but now they're actually competing For spots It's just that dynamic. It kind of reminds me of an athletics like a school athletics tournament. You know what I mean? You go through the whole year Seeing all these guys in the playground hanging out after school doing whatever but there's that one day where we all come together as athletes and we're all competitive and It can either bring out the best or the worst than someone But I just love it Washington 39 for those guys And doing other things early because when he does he is something special Whoa, I do like about what he's done already Let's have a look at that kid because when he does he is something special and one thing I do like about what he's done already waiting at 236 I think he should be 240 or beyond to make sure he has enough body armor on to take the hits in the NFL It looks like a big man Check it out Peter Schrager's guy Jacob Eason. All right now Here's the deep throws that Peter Schrager was telling us to keep an eye out for Really That's the first deep ball that I've seen dropped That's exciting man to hear he's got a massive pass Be a little bit better and more consistent with this touch and accuracy, but arm strength wise this is top shelf I'm gonna have the ability to five quick hits ball out before they turn around They're throwing a cone right between those cones right back at the quarterback So you see the back of the head you let it go with a nice little touch but firm That should be stanging it out of there That's why I receive a guy's also I want to see a guy come out of this break And I want to see his feet placement when he catches the ball If he still has one foot in front of the other that means he has to take a few more steps before he can get Turnside correlate to a three-step drop a five-step drop and so it's the when I started with young quarterbacks It's always like I'm always gonna start them under center So they can start developing that clock in their head on the timing of the routes on the outside And you see that often with guys that are primarily in the gun is they lack timing because they never develop that Timing in their head, you know, this is when that ball needs to come out run through a lot of these guys, man They're not running through as fast as they can. I think it's important to do that And that's why it's so important to start guys under the center and be able to correlate that stuff and develop that timing That we always talk about that clock in our head And I'm fully with you these throws down the field have been much much better than they're underneath stuff Well, we just saw on that route there And it was a great report from Kim Jones giving the back story of chasing like Not a guy Extraordinary to my left just handed me a note Daniel Since 2003 only two wide receivers have come to the combine Measured at least six foot four Wait 235 pounds and run the dash and under 445 one of them's got to be Calvin Johnson and the others chase 2003 you know how many times do you watch a game Sounds like a lethal wide receiver that thing That's who he is Yeah, I can't catch that All right, okay, so that was a quick look at the the quarterbacks now Let me just job my memory the first guy was probably the most impressive If I'm remembering correctly and his name was Justin Herbert from Oregon. He had a very consistent long arm No drops, but I am gonna hold my judgment because I think Joe burrow went number one and we didn't see Joe burrow work out So we're gonna hold it there in the next one guys. We're gonna look at the best of the wide receivers I have no idea who that is, but he's looking very determined and it looks like he's just made a nice clean catch Let's just hope he follows through. Anyways guys have a have a fantastic day We have absolutely no time to lose although I have tried to do this outro clip six times So really I've lost two minutes already and that's two minutes too many To two minutes too many. All right guys. I need another sip. I'll see you in the next one for the wide receivers


Hello friends. I am Sanjay Gupta. I welcome you on Sanjay Gupta Tech School. In this video, I'm going to cover these two points related to lightning flow in Salesforce. So first is what happens when flow fails and how to analyze flow at our email. So whenever flow fails, it sends an email to the user who last modified it or created it. So we will learn how we can do these two points. Before starting, if you want to follow Salesforce training videos, you can search my name Sanjay Gupta on YouTube. And you can follow my YouTube channel and you can see various playlists are available related to Salesforce and other programming languages. So you can follow my channel to watch these videos. So now coming onto the topic. So right now I'm going to fail a flow knowingly. So in my previous video, I demonstrated you how we can create opportunity with the help of screen flow. So let me open these screens again and go through with this. So this screen is related to opportunity name and closed date. So for opportunity name, you can see this red S-risk is available because it is required and closed date is not having required. So in my previous video it was required, but now I unchecked it. So it is not required. You can leave it blank as well. Then if you go to second screen. So whenever you want to open the screen, you need to double click on that. And that screen will be open or you can say that element will be open. And here you can see first stage S-risk is also available. So two components are required and one is optional. And third element is for creating record. So this will create opportunity record. So here we are filling these information name, closed date and stage name. So now if you have modified something in the flow before executing it, you need to click on save. If you are using your flow on any component, then you need to activate it. Right now we are not using flow on any component. So we are not activating it. We are just clicking on debug. I clicked on debug. So from here you need to click on run. Here you can see the opportunity name is required. So we need to pass this to test opportunity from flow for error. Now we need to fill closed date, but right now I'm not filling it. And if we move to opportunity and if we try to create new opportunity. So here you will see whenever we want to create opportunity record, we need to fill opportunity name, closed date and stage. So closed date is required field, but I'm not putting any value in that. I'm leaving it as blank. Clicking on next. So you will see on right inside all debug information is available. So opportunity name is available, but date is blank. Now I'm selecting stage as let's say need analysis. And I'm clicking on next. So here you can see error occurred. And this error occurred when the flow tried to create records. Required field missing. So this is the required fields are missing. So it is showing which field is missing that is closed date. You can look up. Exception code values in the SOAP API developer. Right. So apart from this error, it also throws an email to the user who last modified the flow. So here you can see the mail is available and it is showing all the details. All screen inputs, all components values it is showing. So it is showing flow API name name is this flow type is screen flow type is one status is inactive or name is this, then flow interview detail, create opportunity, data and time, current user username and record ID, start time, duration, then how the interview started. So all these information are available then screen details. So screen one is having opportunity name, but it is not having close date because we knowingly didn't mention that then screen two is having stays as need analysis. Then it tried to create record. So close date you can see it is null name is this and stays name is needs analysis then result is free to create record and error occurred. So this is the error which is shown here. So this way the thing that I told you in the starting like what happens when flow fails. So it throws an email and how to analyze through an email. So I demonstrated you how you can analyze this email. So remember that whenever flow fails, it throws an email and mail will be sent to the person who last modified the flow. So through that you can analyze what errors occurred. So right now we debugged it. Let's say if we didn't debug it and we directly executed this flow. Let's say from record detail base. So this error won't be coming there. Right. Then you will be dependent on this email. So if you have this email, you can easily debug your flow like what error was there so that you can identify each steps are available here. So you need to identify the errors for that purpose. You need this email. So friends remember that whenever flow fails, an email is triggered and you can analyze what errors and what step you executed so that you can debug the flow and you can correct it. So this is all about these two things in this video. I hope you understood whatever I demonstrated. If you want to watch more Salesforce training videos, you can search my name Sanjay Gupta on YouTube and you can watch various playlists related to various programming languages. Thank you for watching this video.


So I'd like to start by thanking the Brain Foundation sponsors and donors for this very generous research gift. I'm a junior neurologist coming towards the end of my PhD and my research interest is in the area of the inflammatory neuropathies. So these are autoimmune conditions where the body attacks the nerves, supplying the arms and the legs. The two most common inflammatory neuropathies are CIDP or chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and multifocal modern neuropathy or MMM. These disorders can present with muscle wasting causing significant weakness and as such patients may present with difficulty walking and issues with performing activities of daily living. Often the patients are also very young and it may affect their ability to be able to work. Unfortunately these disorders can be difficult to diagnose and many patients that we see have been to numerous doctors for a diagnosis and a therapy has been instituted. The standard therapy for the inflammatory neuropathies is a product called intravenous immunoglobulin or IVIG. This is a blood product which consists of poured antibodies from blood donors. Not all patients will respond to therapy so it's really a trial and error approach that we use but some patients will respond to other forms of therapy. It's also a very expensive therapy and requires patients to go into hospital to have the infusion administered usually on a monthly basis. The inflammatory neuropathies are extremely heterogeneous and variable in their presentation so as a disorder it's often very difficult for us to treat. So I've spent the last three years working on my PhD through the Brain and Mind Centre in Sydney and during this time I've had the opportunity to recruit and assess a large number of patients with inflammatory neuropathies. We've been focusing on the clinical features and neurophysiological techniques. So these are techniques using electrical stimulation and looking at how the nerve responds. We've also established an antibody panel through our immunology laboratory and this has allowed us to establish a number of antibody tests for some newly discovered antibodies in CIDP and this is now available for clinicians in the country. So with this gift from the research foundation we're extremely helpful to continue the research that I've begun. So my aim is to look at patients in a longitudinal fashion and to determine the clinical and neurophysiological features which may help us provide targeted treatment approaches. We'll also build on the cohort that we've currently established of patients with antibodies that have been recently discovered and determine the features that may be able to help us provide targeted treatment but with minimal side effects. In addition we'll be adding some MRI techniques, some new techniques such as diffusion tensor imaging or DTI into this protocol to determine subtypes of inflammatory neuropathies again aiming to improve diagnosis and to provide more targeted therapy. Thanks again to the Brain Foundation.
