Single mothers I'm gonna hit on single mothers for a bit because not a lot of people talk about it I came out of a three-year relationship with a single mother last couple years This is this is a meme that somebody sent me that I Kind of chuckle that but I'm not going to read it off. You can see it there for yourself I'll leave it up for a sec, but there's but there's truth in every joke Okay, when you see these stand-up comics up on stage telling their jokes The reason why they're funny is because there's elements of truth in them Okay, so when you see stuff like that you got to think about it the thing about single moms is You're gonna end up with double triple quadruple the heartbreak This ex of mine had a couple boys and when you spend time playing halo with little Timmy and zeroing the scope in on the BB gun of Billy And you take trips and you do the blended family stuff when she goes they go to you'll never see them again And even though they might have driven you absolutely nuts You have like double or triple the heartbreak when you deal with somebody like that It's also very easy for them to end the relationship because I've done it once at my age I was dating mostly divorced women seven at it seven or eight out of ten women are divorced because they initiate the divorces So it's very easy for them to move along and just you know slide into the next relationship They have questionable judgment skills You talk to single moms that have been divorced You'll hear all kinds of stories from them about why they got married the children why they made all these decisions and choices And after a while you'll start to ask yourself That's pretty questionable and I don't see you taking a lot of ownership on whatever it was that you contributed to that You'll never be a priority You'll come in behind the kids the cat the dog the extracurriculars apparent student nights You're like fifth or six, you know the tree that needs to get removed in the backyard sort of thing You're not going to be a priority You know save yourself for somebody else that has the capacity of the time They think the world is going to revolve around her and her kids. She's emotionally unavailable I talked about the amount of fucks you have in your day to give the things that are truly fuckworthy. Well single moms have kids They're going to take up a lot at a time and resources most single moms have custody of their children more than the men Okay, so they're going to have to deal with a lot of parenting issues Mothers tend to doad over their children more than men do men are kind of more of like let me teach you how to deal with this Sort of thing and mothers are like, are you okay?  Are you eating well? And all this sort of stuff. I'm you know, I'm in my 40s My mom still mothers me, you know, they eat up a lot of time and resources You can even ask married men in this room what it's like to be married And you'll start to recognize after a while that a lot of energy and resources even in married couples where they have the children together Is eaten up, you know with a mother spending time with the kids. They're not yours Emotionally unavailable her kids will work against you They're not intentionally trying to do this But even your presence in that relationship you're pissing on the flame of reconciliation between the two parents whether they choose to acknowledge it or not Okay, even if you're a stand-up virtuous guy, you can bend over backwards and do everything under the Sun for them You're still your presence is still pissing on the flame of reconciliation the way they see it depending on what their age is Especially if they're younger They have a distorted self-image All you have to do is go on any dating app See single moms in there, they think they're a 10 when they're like a six, you know, everybody's had that experience I'm sure they don't take a lot of ownership for the mistakes that happen in their life And it's a hundred percent investment with zero percent ROI At least with my own daughter what I invest in her I get something back. I mean I'm invested in my own lineage Okay, you don't get anything back invested in some other man's children Lesson number nine


A paper out of Texas A&M last year suggests that it may be the arginine content of nuts. How does arginine get the job done? They're not sure. The underlying mechanisms are likely complex at molecular, cellular, and whole body levels. In other words, they have no clue. But they do review the evidence that it may involve the stimulation of mitochondrial biogenesis, more power plants per cell, and brown adipose tissue development, which is what our body uses to generate body heat, so we'd be converting more of our fat into heat. Either way, they suspect arginine to play an important role in fighting the current global obesity epidemic. Well then, where in the diet can we find arginine? I'll give you a hint. According to the CDC, 78 million Americans aren't getting enough. So you know the top few sources have got to be in healthy foods, because no one's getting any. And indeed, here's the list for the top 15 food sources of arginine you'd likely find in a typical store. Number one, isolated soy protein, which is what they make veggie burgers and meat-free hot dogs, and the like out of. Number two, pumpkin seeds and squash seeds. Number four, watermelon seeds. Isn't that crazy? Not as crazy as number five, fried pork rinds. Not kidding. Maybe Americans should be getting more than I think. Number six, barbecue flavor pork rinds. It must just concentrate on the skin. Number seven, sesame seeds. Number eight, peanuts. Number nine, soy beans. Number 10, peanut butter. And then tahini, sesame seed paste, almonds. Number 13, pine nuts. Number 14, fava beans. And number 15, sunflower seeds. So basically, soy seeds, nuts, and beans for arginine. Although dried beluga whale meat evidently has a lot, the first non-pork rind animal food that you could actually find in a typical store clocks in the USDA database at number 95th down the list, bacon.


Studying at Saxon is very unique because you enter a completely international environment and you meet new people and new experiences. The way I stay in contact with my teacher is by joining the class early to have a little bit of a conversation to ask how we're doing. I think my tip for students who are going to start studying online is to organize yourself because in the beginning it feels like oh it's just online classes I have enough time because I don't have to go physically to school but no it is a lot harder than you think because you need to plan your own time and your own study. Moving to the Netherlands was a little bit difficult for me because I come outside of Europe so I did have to get a lot of documents done. Saxon helped me with that and I contacted international office so as we can see I'm here so it wasn't that difficult and don't be scared of the environment because all of us are internationals we're all in contact you can always contact us. I'm Marina and I'm studying at Saxon University of Applied Sciences.


पहरल्स विद तुड़े इपने खल्दून के फलोस्पी के रेलिवें सगराज के जमाने के साथ शको रिलेएट करना हो, तु इसकी हम्हियत बहुल जादा है, and when we want to discuss about इपने खल्दून's contribution in context of the discipline of political sociology, तु हम के कहने में बजा है, के इपने खल्दून एक असे बड़े political sociologists है, जिनके नजर्यात, जिनके contribution के रेलिवेंस आज के modern time period के अंदर भी है, because it is important that after almost 600 years later, the concepts that इपने खल्दून introduced in the mukadma are still relevant, तु अंदर्स्टन्टिंग तु बभी है, because there are many governments, those are trying to extend their social solidarity or social cohesion, even nowadays that is because the social cohesion is the most important indicator of modern days world order. तु अंदर्स्टन्टिंग जिनके बड़ेलिवें के आज के नजर्यात बड़ेलिवें के आज के नजर्यात बभी है, whose citizens share a common sense of identity and who feel able to trust their neighbours, their institutions and governments, are more likely to thrive and prosper than those who did not have the same situation and the people, the societies, those are divided and those are fragmented, they are considered much more weaker. So, with this situation while keeping in mind the political polarization that is whipping across western democracies nowadays, it is actually a concern for the western democracies. So, we can say that if Ibn Khaldun's theory of history holds true, we might be witnessing the first stage in the declining of the western powers that have dominated the world stage since the fall of the Islamic empire. So, many experts of society, political sociology, international relations and even political science, they are claiming that the 21st century will be known as the Asian century. Today, what is the debate in the world that the 21st century is actually called an Asian society and these people will dominate the politics of the world. But what is the biggest challenge for these people? According to Ibn Khaldun, if we relate the philosophy of Ibn Khaldun with the current state which is rising on economic basis, then the formula of rising on economic basis, along with the condition of Ibn Khaldun, was that if internally these societies are strong, if they have social solidarity, then only they can rise. In this, we can talk about an interesting example of India, that the Indian government claims that India is going to rise as a big economy. But their social order, the challenges there, if they remain the same, then according to the philosophy of Ibn Khaldun, the political sociology of Ibn Khaldun, if they remain the same, then India is going to rise as a rising power, and the biggest challenge there will be is the internal situation of India, because Indian society is dividing day by day, and their social cohesion is not seen anywhere. So, we can talk about the influence that Ibn Khaldun's philosophy, in the political sociology context, the views that he gave many years ago about the rise and fall of societies, that they will rise along with the time, which will be internally strengthened, and then there will be a proper framework for their leadership. So, Europe has a challenge of political polarization, and the rising economies have a challenge of social cohesion or social solidarity.


I think it was better, you know, the command was better.  You mentioned the breaking ball. Do you feel like that slider had a lot more depth tonight? Yeah, of course. I think it was good. I think I was more on top tonight. And like I said, you know, I was, you know, commander of all my stuff. You seemed a little surprised when Boone came out to get you there in that sixth inning. Were you unhappy with the fact that he came out and got you? I mean, of course. I mean, I got like 80 something pitches. You know, I asked him to give me one more header.  Robertson came and did a good job. What did he say to you? What did you say to him? I asked him to give me one more batter. He said that was it. I mean, did you... By saying that, did you think you might change his mind? Maybe.  Do you think if this was... if this game tonight was in, you know, June or early July that you would have allowed you to pitch further into the game? I mean, I don't know. I don't know. But I saw the pitch count when I got like 80 something. Even if I got to 90, that's a low, you know, count for pitches. Did you need this game for your confidence? My confidence always up, you know. I have some struggles, but that's not the thing that I can fix. So I was going to go to the mound and give my 100% and compete for my team. Luis, what's the feeling in here right now? Your wild card lead is down to one over Okun now. I think everybody here, you know, they're working, you know. They're doing the best possible game to win games, you know.  Although this was great.


This is Christian Buckley doing another MVP BuzzChat interview and I'm here this morning with Ducks. Hey Ducks, how's it going? Hey Christian, it's great. I can't wait to hit the waters. Yeah, I completely believe that you are where you say you are there, so. Hey man, look, I've got my paddle. I'm ready to go. Ready to hit the water, all right. That's right. I've got the SPF 100 out there. It looks warm and bright out there.  Hi everybody, my name is Ducks and I serve as the CMO of Abpoint and I'm also, also very grateful to be a Microsoft Regional Director and MVP. I've known Christian for a long time. I'm based out in Washington, DC. I started my career as a similar programmer and for those that doesn't know what that is, you weren't born yet, but fast forward to today. Boy, I get to work closely with a lot of organizations around the world, helping them out to figure out how to best maximize Office 365 technologies, like Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Planner, Project, the whole nine yards. You know, we've known each other for over 10 years now. I didn't realize that you had started as a similar programmer. What kind of stuff were you working on? Oh yeah, my degree was electrical engineering and my very first job, I worked for a small company called Siemens and I had to program these Motorola chips for a lot of their integrated circuit boards and that didn't last too long, maybe a couple of months because I realized while I know how to program, I enjoy programming, but I don't enjoy working by myself with a computer. I prefer working more with people and engaging with people. Right, and where was that based? Cause I, did you work in the telecom space? Any specific? Yeah, I was in, actually I was in Atlanta at that time and this was a part of their manufacturing business. So it's a lot of the equipment they sell to manufacturing companies. I spent a lot of time going between the logos, hot spots in the telecom industries, Atlanta, Alpharetta specifically. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was actually in Alpharetta. It's for Siemens automation business. Yeah, I think I've been out to a bunch of those locations but yeah, well that's interesting. So some of the stuff, I guess that the main question I like to ask in these part of these interviews is I know you're out there, you do a lot of events, a lot of things that AvePoint is doing, the Shift Happens event, when is that? When that's coming up, isn't it? Yeah, Shift Happens is coming up June 22nd and shameless plug here. If you all want to join, please sign up. It's free, it's shifthappenscon.com and for every person that register and attends, we're gonna donate $5 to the World Health Organization, COVID-19 fund. So we as techies get to learn a lot but also more importantly, we want to make sure we spread the goodness to everybody else. Well, one of the things I like about what you guys do with the conference too is that there's certainly a lot of the other events and we'll kind of get into some of the other things that are coming on, I know, because you're out there actively presenting and I want to ask you about kind of your topics that you're most passionate about. One of the things that I like about what you guys do with the Shift Happens event though is you're talking about real-world business cases, the scenarios around that. So it's not just techies talking tech and here's the latest features, here's how you do those things but it's the business scenarios and that's, I know, I feel is often lost at a lot of these events. And this actually, this feedback came from a lot of our customers. Certainly, like you said, there's tons of phenomenal events. I mean, especially these days, there's a lot of great online events produced by Microsoft, the community and people learn a lot around the technology but what's been missing is the real-world stories from the trenches. So that's been the feedback the past couple of years from our customers. So we figured we'll put one together. So for this upcoming Shift Happens conference, typically we have it in person, face to face but certainly due to current situation, we're gonna have it online so it's not gonna stop it. We'll have companies like FedEx talking about how they've adopted teams. We'll have Heathrow Airport talk about how they've adopted the Power Platform. Deloitte, they're gonna talk about how they're providing Office 365 as a service. So certainly it's not Contoso talking about how everything's perfect but what's critical here is what we learn from these organizations as they move to the cloud. You can't knock the Contoso though. I mean, because they're everywhere. They do everything. And they're still around, right? I know it's between Contoso and Top Spin Toys, I believe. They're also, they just are involved in so much, yeah. Yeah, there's the other like the sports company or the outdoor company that used to be the SQL Server example. I forgot what's the name of it. Of course, for those that don't know, we're talking about the Microsoft, the generic companies that they use. Contoso though, I think there's Contoso T-shirts. I need to go get one of those that it's missing from my wardrobe. So there's a real Contoso company? No, no, no. There's just the fake Contoso company T-shirts, you know. But so for the topics that you're passionate about. So one of the things that you're known for and you've been talking about for many, many years and I'm actually getting back into and writing more and more about is the project management side of there. Because you wrote one of the most popular books in the Microsoft ecosystem around project management. But what are the topics that you're actively speaking on, presenting on these days? Yeah, so project management is still near and dear to me. In fact, I think two weeks ago, maybe a week ago I spoke online for the Microsoft Project User Group. I also spoke at a local PMI chapter online. So that's still near and dear to me because that's my background. Shortly after I left Siemens, I got to work in the realm of project management. And as you mentioned, I got to write the book SharePoint for project management. But past that, one, a couple key areas that really I talk to customers about and also I present about first and foremost in how do you practically migrate to the cloud? So I know a lot of people may be thinking, oh, companies are all in the cloud, they've migrated, not quite, especially we're seeing a lot of large organizations like government organization. It's exciting to see a lot of government agencies moving to the Microsoft Cloud. So I provide a lot of guidance around that, how to do it in a compliant way. The second area I spend a lot of time with customers and also the community on is this idea of what does practical governance look like? I know you talk a lot about that, you write a lot about that. And I think there's a common misunderstanding around governance. People think about governance as just how do you provision these workspaces? Well, that's an element of it. There's really three core areas of governance. One is how do you provision a lot of these workspaces in Office 365 via Teams or SharePoint or Yammer? But second, once it's provisioned, how do you manage and enforce policies? That's part of governance. And not a lot of people think about or talk about that. And then the last part which is equally as important is this idea of how do you govern information lifecycle? What happens to the container such as Teams or SharePoint when you're not using it? Does it just sit there? Does it sprawl? Does it mushroom all over the place? So those are the three key area of governance that I talk a lot about. I share examples and I provide guidance to customers. So that I would say is one of the most hottest topic in the past six to 12 months that I've been focusing on. You know, I hear that question a lot. I know you're doing office hours. There's a lot of us. We're doing community office hours and just doing kind of an AMA style answering questions, live stream out on the web. And one of the more common questions we get a lot of questions almost every week. We do ours twice every Monday around those governance questions. And it's, I think that, of course, historically, both of us working in the SharePoint space for a long time and there was a lot of talk around SharePoint sprawl. And I think those of us that talked a lot, wrote a lot, spoke a lot on governance when Teams was released, what, four years ago now? Yeah, about four. Three years, it was. Announced like three and a half, four years, almost four years. Correct, correct. It's October. I remember October 2016 or 2017, something like that. But it was, you know, I think when I saw that I was excited about the features but instantly I thought about, I saw the way that the architecture of the layout and leveraging Exchange and SharePoint, the first thing I thought of was the sprawl problems all over again. And some of that is, of course, been realized. It was true, but then again, the community was a lot smarter about it. We had seen this, we knew what questions, what to expect, the user behaviors around using this technology. So it has been these kinds of questions have been at the kind of the forefront of the expansion, the adoption of Teams. I would say in a very brutally frank way, I think Teams compared to SharePoint with regards to sprawl, I think can be much, much more complex and dangerous. Not, no, dangerous, sorry, dangerous is the wrong word, but could be exponentially be more challenging. And the reason why I say it is SharePoint at that time, right?  That's a no-no. Right. Now, I'm not saying Teams is bad. Teams, no doubt, is great. Teams is what SharePoint should have been 10, 15 years ago. But what a lot of people don't realize, Teams is a front end to a lot of other technologies where data can live. SharePoint being one of them. You've got one note, you've got Outlook calendars, you've got Planner. And those different containers can have data in it. So now the question becomes, okay, I'm working on a project. Let's go to a project management example. I create a team. I run my project in a team. I put my task in Planner, our notes in OneNote, conversation is in Teams conversation, some of the documents in SharePoint. Okay, project is done. I'm being a mindful project manager. I'm gonna delete it or have a process to archive it. But then there are things around regulations and compliance which may not have existed 10 years ago. Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, HIPAA related, where maybe some records management retention policy. So as a project manager, what do I do? I will remember every single switch and every single knob I have to turn and make sure this one piece of content needs to live forever, everything else I can chuck, right? So that's why I say it's more complex. Then this one piece of content may not just necessarily be in the SharePoint library of your teams, that piece of content you may have drag and drop into one though, right? You could have had conversations, you could have had conversations about it in one-on-one chats, in threaded conversations in Teams. It may have been a discussion that was in a private community over in Yammer. That's right. It could have been a conversation that's attached to the documents themselves as part of that, all those different places. And it's still one of the problems. There's no archive button in Teams that then goes and captures all of those, that footprint of those items. Even if everything that you're doing, your Yammer, the SharePoint team site, the Teams activities are all tied to that Office 365 group. It's all related, it's all part of that, in scope of that project. But there's no easy button that then pulls all that in together and then applies policies to that. And short of that easy button, this goes back to your point around upfront, right? Look, you can't boil the ocean, but upfront have some semblance of what's your strategy around being able to practically govern, at least as you get started with this, your Office 365 environment around, once you provision it, when people are using it, and then once you're done using it, right? Well, so what is the, people like to have consumable short lists, like Ducks, tell me what to go and do, what's the right approach for this? You mean you talked about it with kind of your three areas of governance. I mean, you need to think about the provisioning process. Sure. And there are a lot of organizations which will rush out and lock down that provisioning process, which then halts a lot of the purpose, right? Yeah. Right, yeah. What's the point of that? Sure. What's the guidance that you give people? Yeah, so some practical things, right? So let me go through those three pillars and let me give you some quick hits here. So when you think about provisioning, you gotta go back and think about the maturity of your organization. If you leave cell service on, which is perfectly fine, you gotta trust that your organization's mature enough that when they do a cell service provisioning, you won't wake up one day and suddenly you have 100,000 teams sitting there. But if not, the answer is not also the other end of the spectrum where you lock everything down and go back to the olden days of everything I need, I had to ask IT, dear IT, I bought you three rounds of Guinness last night, can you give me a team, right? Doesn't work. So you gotta find that middle ground. The good news is Microsoft recently released a Request A Teams app. So you can have that somewhat of a request middle ground process within Teams. So it's out there, you can find it. So that's one option. The other option is, if you have Azure AD Premium, you can actually limit who could do self-service. So let's say your model can be okay, now that we've trained the HR team, we're gonna enable self-service provisioning only for HR. However, in order to do that, you gotta have Azure AD Premium One license. That's a separate license that you have to buy for the organization. And then the third option is around that too is, look, we talked about self-service everything, middle ground with things like Azure ADP One or Request A Teams app. If you want it to be much more specific, right? You wanna say HR can do self-service, marketing cannot, accounting cannot, executives can't, if you want to go down that path where it's not a one size fits all, either you write PowerShell scripts yourself or you look for third party solutions, that's out there and certainly that's the business we're in. So those are some of the options of provisioning. And then the second piece, once you provision, right, how do you enforce some of the policies? And when I say enforce, how do you make sure people don't randomly upload documents that they're not supposed to or create subsites off of the SharePoint site collection? So you can look into advanced things like what the Office 365 Compliance Center offers. Think about retention policies, labeling and also if you want to extend it further, you can look at AIP, Azure Information Protection. So you could do things like auto classification and auto tagging, which is already available. And then the last part, once it's not being used anymore, you wanna make sure sprawl does not happen to govern your information lifecycle. Then you look at capabilities around expirations because in case you don't know, as a part of Azure ADP one, you can put a default expiration for teams if it's not being used. So you can say, okay, if any team's not being used for 30 days, ask the owner if they want it and if they don't, get rid of it. So you can take advantage of these capabilities. So the good news is a lot of these capabilities are there is just that it's not configured or turned on. And rightfully so, because every organization is different, right? Right, well, and another key part of that too is understanding what your organizational requirements are. Most of us here, we work in industries, we're in a space where there are, you may not be aware of what they are, but there are likely rules in place. Like this is how we must archive our data. These are the policies that must be in place for us to be compliant, to be secure. And so you need to understand what those things are as you go through. Look at all the things that Microsoft 365 can do and kind of pick and choose the ones that you understand. Go and understand what the requirements are to build in part of that. And whether you can do it out of the box, whether you need to do additional scripting to enable that or need to go and employ a third party tool will be determined by what those requirements are. And as Christian mentioned, I've spoken at length about this, I've written blogs about it, just either go look for it, go online or go to our blog, apppoint.com slash blog to search governance. You'll find a lot of detailed information around this. Yep, a lot of tools, a lot of stuff that's out there. Well, it's very cool. So the other question I like to ask is, other than the stuff that we're out there that you're talking about, the things that App Point does, anything else that's really kind of struck you that gotten you excited about what's happening? There's so much innovation that's coming out of Redmond now and just it's like every week there's something from personal and team productivity to there's tons of stuff happening in AI and over in Azure, what else is just getting you excited about what Microsoft is doing? Yeah, I think what's really got me excited, I have to think because I can't frame the right words but this new platform, and I say new because now finally it's coming together power platform. I feel like this whole power platform movement, it reminded me when SharePoint first came out. For friends, for folks that are not familiar, our platform is made out of Power BI, our automated power apps and a common data object model where essentially non-developers can build apps easily and quickly. So for example, they even have virtual agents that you can use and deploy. These are intuitive bots that you can put on your website or your apps, it's part of power platform. So that's really got me excited because now you talk about empowering every organization, every person in the world, power platform actually can continue to expand that mission statement. Yeah, no, I agree, I don't know if this is officially true, just kind of my perception is it's one of the fastest areas of growth, certainly within the MVP community. A lot of these business apps, business intelligence experts that are kind of springing up from industry. So people that have just kind of embraced the platform, building solutions, sharing it with the community and then Microsoft is just like recognizing these experts from the man to the MVP community. And so it's been very exciting. And like you say, it's a lot of people that are not even traditional coders, engineers, they're business people that are just solving real world problems and getting excited about the platform. I mean, this is the whole citizen development movement. So as a good example, I was sharing earlier that Heathrow Airport will be speaking at our events shift happens conference and how they got started Power Platform is because of a security officer. Now, when I see security officer, imagine TSA, right? These, they pat you when you go to the airport. So, Samud Saini has been working at Heathrow Airport for over 14 years, a security officer, no IT background. And then one day he's like, so his pain point at that time was, he has a book that he carries with him with all the different languages to show passengers, you know, take off your belongings, whatever. And he said, there could be a better way of care instead of carrying this book and flashing this to, you know, passengers. So he asked his boss, can IT help us with this? Like build an app, right? And they're like, no, IT's too busy. But we have Office 365, see if you can figure something out. So he just clicked around one evening and saw this thing called PowerApps, went online and he just scanned this manual and built an app on the phone. So now they don't have to lug around this book or even when it needs to be updated because it's all in the app and they just show the passenger. And now it speaks a language, it talks, it's so powerful. As a result of that, guess what he's doing now? He's working for IT. He's one of the leaders of their power platform environment at Heathrow Airport. So that's really, really inspiring. And that's what excites me. Another story is a guy named Keith. He was a bus driver for over 18 years in London for a transportation company. Again, same thing. He came across PowerApps or his pain point was getting these buses service in, you know, whatever shop and he's trying to schedule and all that. I was like, there could be a better way. So he built a PowerApp. That's very cool. There's, you know, we're getting more and more stories out of that. I know that there's a lot of activity, a lot of growth. It's the, I mean, here are local user groups. The community here, it's one of the fastest growing areas. They probably have the biggest crowds. Well, prior to COVID at the biggest crowds. But yeah, a lot of excitement, a lot of interest because, you know, as he said with the citizen developer movement, regular people can go and deliver value to their businesses. And one of the best ways to get started, you talk about some of the bots, some of the apps that are out there is go and see what's available and add on to them, configure them, play with those, build on top of something that already exists, learn the technology and then kind of go from there and what else, think about what else you could do for your organization. Well, cool. Well, Ducks, really appreciate your time today and people want to find out more about you. How do they find out about you? Get in touch with you. Hey, thank you so much for having me, Christian.  So, one place you won't find me is the FBI's most wanted list. I'm sorry. Oh well, maybe someday it will inspire to that, you know. No, no, that's not a place where I want to be at. But I'm so grateful for this opportunity, Christian. Hope all is well with you and your family during this time.  Make sure you have your flotation devices. I know, it's completely realistic, Ducks, completely. Okay, okay, how about let me go to space this time? There we go. I see the Aurora Borealis, how's that? There we go. All right, Ducks, we'll talk to you soon. Take care, bye.

Hi, my name is Chris Long. Welcome to another episode of Whiteboard Friday. Today, we're going to talk about five different ways that you can use ChatGBT to enhance your SEO processes. First one we're going to talk about is featured snippet optimization. ChatGBT is really, really good at creating these succinct summaries of overall topics, but really capturing a lot of information within those summaries. One way we've had a lot of good success using it is let's say you're optimizing for the featured snippet for index funds. Actually telling ChatGBT, hey, create a two to three sentence summary of index funds and the rules are always using is statement and always start both sentences with the target keyword of index funds. Generally, ChatGBT is really, really good at creating these summaries and it's a fantastic use case to create these succinct summaries that are really going to translate well to featured snippet opportunities. The next way you can use ChatGBT to enhance your SEO is getting feedback on content. I think a lot of the way we think about using ChatGBT is only a content creator, but I think that's a more limiting belief. One of the ways we really like to use that GoFish digital is to really have it give feedback on content that we're optimizing. So for instance, if you're writing an article on how to break in running shoes, you can actually paste that article into ChatGBT and say, hey, how do I make this content better for the user and it'll actually give you sections you could add. It might say, hey, create some FAQs around running shoes or add a section around common problems around running shoes. And really, instead of using it to create new content, you're using that as a guide, a personal assistant that's really helping you leverage how you can get the best quality of the content that you already have. Next way that you can use ChatGBT for SEO is really enhancing your knowledge base and that's another underrated aspect from an SEO perspective. In SEO, if you think of all of the great minds that write really long, sometimes more technical articles, for instance, the late great Bill Salasky used to write really long articles that analyze Google patents. And what we've been doing is testing and running them through ChatGBT and saying, hey, explain Bill's article to me like we're in high school and ChatGBT is able to create a really, really succinct summary that's actually helpful. In essence, this really democratizes content from thought leaders like Bill or Google's documentation as an industry becoming and enhancing our technical SEO skill sets is a challenge. ChatGBT helps democratize that content by making it more accessible for everybody. Next way I recommend using ChatGBT for SEO is screaming frog extractions. I think ChatGBT is really gonna open up screaming frog for a lot of SEOs. For instance, if you want to extract elements from a page, whether that's the breadcrumbs or the structured data, whether that's author biographies, previously you were required to know XPath or some type of other extraction method. Now with ChatGBT, you can plug in the HTML that you're trying to extract, say, hey, write me an extract code and screaming frog will be able to create you an XPath that will work in about one minute's time. I'm just really gonna open up tools and allow us as a community to really create more extraction information, more extraction prompts than we've been able to before. Final way I would recommend using ChatGBT for SEO is really creating your custom tools. I think one of the biggest powers is that ChatGBT is going to empower us to be a community of creators and create technical solutions, regardless of what our technical background might be. So for example, you could have ChatGBT actually create you your own custom Chrome extension. I was able to, with limited coding knowledge, be able to create a Chrome extension that extracts basic information, like page title, H1 tags, publish date, all in about 30 minutes time with a little bit of debugging. And you could also create your own Chrome extension that really suits your individual needs as a search marketer. As well, you can use it to create tools that can help you scale out your own processes. Using ChatGBT, we actually created our own Google Sheets function that runs information through Google or through Open API or through ChatGBT's Open API. And basically what you can do is, in the Sheets function that will allow you to create custom title tags, meta descriptions, using ChatGBT, making it drag and drop directly in Google Sheets. And we'll link that article in the video description should you want to run through that process. So I think there's a lot of really, really great use cases for ChatGBT when it comes to SEO that's even more than just creating new content. It's a lot of really creative ways you can leverage these tools. I believe SEOs that are leaning into it, learning how to use these tools are going to be the ones that really see success in the long term. So thanks for joining me everyone. And that was this week's edition of Whiteboard Friday.


Hey guys, welcome back to my channel. My name is Sinali. If you guys didn't already know me today I'm gonna be sharing with you what camera I vlog with and why I think it is the ultimate best camera to use for vlogging So first of all by vlogging I mean day-in-the-life type like hold the camera with your own hands not a tripod type thing This would be like a main channel video even though I don't have two separate channels But then my other videos like taking you guys like shopping with me You're like to the coffee shop stuff like that. I would consider vlogging so the camera that I use is the Sony a5 100 I actually used to have the Canon g7x. I noticed that the autofocus wasn't that great Obviously it took good pictures and stuff like that, but I wanted it for video and it was just not performing It's best. I've also noticed that like vloggers like Aspen and Parker used the Canon g7x And they were talking about how bad the autofocus was and at the time I was really into like taking pictures of my makeup and I did a lot of research about that too This camera is used by a lot of beauty gurus for their instagrams to take pictures of like their makeup and their work on other people So at the time that's kind of why I got it because I just thought it would like take a lot better pictures But I noticed that the video quality is a hundred thousand times better than the Canon g7x And it literally makes me want to cringe when people keep buying the Canon g7x because it is shit And that's why I'm putting this video out there because obviously if you see a lot of hype about a camera You're gonna want to buy it So for example since like almost every vlogger in the world has the Canon g7x you're gonna want to buy it But in reality it's like literally such bad quality. So first of all the Canon g7x is so much more expensive I think it's like totals to 600 and the Sony a5 100 I think it's just like 500 or like 400 something one thing that this camera doesn't have that the Canon g7x Does have is a touchscreen. I got over that really quickly and I adapted so it's not that bad But this camera does have the flip-up screen and what's really cool about this camera is that you can buy other lenses for it and switch It out which I wouldn't because all I really use it for is videos So I don't really need to because this lens that it comes with is perfect and the ones that it comes with is the e 3.5 to 5.6 1650 I like playing with cameras about know all the technical terms like that But it is a perfect lens for it So I do not recommend getting any other ones for it also the picture quality is so amazing I really like it because it kind of gives you like at the blurring effect in the background And I feel like the Canon g7x didn't really ever do that for me Especially for selfies and the biggest pro of this camera is that it has a smoothing skin effect on it So I do have that on just because like it looks a lot nicer So it did come with like a really long strap like a DSLR strap And I don't have it on but I feel like I'm gonna have to put it on because these things keep like making noise And my vlogs and it's really annoying So maybe I can like find a shorter one So I don't really want like a long neck one on this little thing if you guys want to see some comparisons You can watch my recent vlogs and compare them with my really old vlogs I know this was short But I kind of wanted to just do this as like a public service announcement like stop buying Canon g7x's And start buying these Sony a5 100s because first of all it's cheaper and it's better quality like what more can you ask for? So that's it of this video I hope you guys enjoyed it and if you guys have any friends or family that are wanting to start blog channels Definitely share this video with them because we need to stop the world from buying Canon g7x's nothing against Canon I have a Canon 70d and I love it to death. I love Canon so much But that camera is just so overhyped. All right, so that's it of this video. I will see you guys in my next one Bye guys


It's DK and I have a question for you. What is more important? Is it time or is it miles? Come up below and let me know. I hope you like my style. In today's video, we went out there and got busy. We had three Lowe's from our carrier company. Lowe's number one, about to go out here and get these funds. We were driving 17 Danhead miles, 33 miles loaded. So, we're gonna drive 50 miles altogether for 150, but we do have a, we got an issue baby. It's the thing, right? We have to pick the load up at 5 p.m. and then we have to drop it off to the drop off location the next morning at 6 a.m. But it's time for us to get this trim and let's give it in, let's go. And just like that, I think we're here baby. I have gotten lost. I'm talking about, I've been driving on the building this whole time. I don't know where I'm at, see. I don't know where I'm at, I'm what I'm supposed to do. Oh, that's gotta ring the doorbell. I don't know. I'm lost. Let me tell you right now. You see the jeep here, we see cars. I'm gonna help you. How you doing boss? I have a load to pick up from you guys. I don't know exactly where to go. All right, cool. Just go ahead and go down on the ramp on your left-hand side. Okay.  Once you go down that ramp. Okay. All right, appreciate it boss. You have a good one. My God, just got me right baby. See, go down the ramp ski. Must that right, right, right. See, they don't have any signs. That's the problem. They don't have any signs, no shipping and receiving signs or nothing. I don't think this is it either. See, go down the ramp and then bust the right. I think he's talking about that. But we're gonna see. Where are we going to see? Is this here shipping and receiving? Yeah. Okay. Go ahead. Appreciate it. I'm lost, man. I don't know what I'm doing. I got lost how to come in here. Okay. Okay, so I'm gonna go. Yeah. Oh, that's this guy right there. Okay. Going this way, right? How you doing boss? I got a load to pick up from you guys. Going where? To Kenosha. To Kenosha? Yeah, it said, I got a van. So I'm sure it's some small, it says like three hands or something. You got a phone number by chance? Oh, you said a phone number? Well, you got a pro number. All the tracking number? Most people here. You're just my first time here. So I don't know what's going on, but this is the paperwork they told me to print.  Yeah, they told me to pick up today at five and then drop it off tomorrow morning at six.  This is not even here yet, bud. It's not here? No. The jig is up. You remember the one that they were... This too? You know what I'm bragging about? You remember the one that if you were supposed to go around to Kenosha? It's not here yet, it's on my hall. What is on my hall? I told them. It's over the ropes. It's not our fault, we told them. I don't know, they just told me to come here and see, if you look right here, you can see it's pick up at five right there. Yeah, no, this is still coming in route. So it's not here? We just have to strip out the trailer and do all that extra stuff. So you have no idea when it's gonna be here? No, it's not gonna be here yet, so I'm excited to see it. Okay. Maybe they can... Wow, they really want that break. They want that piece. Thirsty, they're thirsty, you are.  This won't be here until another two hours. Oh, about an hour and a half. Then y'all got to do all the other stuff. And we have to unload it and dig it out. Yeah, we'll have to dig it out. But yeah, this won't be ready for another two, three hours because we have our old outbound operation. Okay, so now I figure out what I'm gonna do. I don't know if they're gonna want me to wait here. I definitely don't want to do that. I hear you, man. I will contact if this message is going on, but it's gonna be up there probably. I'm just gonna tell them it ain't here yet. I'm gonna let them figure it out after that. They're gonna do it, they gotta do it. Appreciate you, boss. You guys have a good one. One hour later. While they're sending you guys out here, when the freight's not ready, I mean, if it was ready, we would advise, hey, freight's ready, come pick it up, but it's not ready. Hey, that trailer, ending in 3768, your tail. Hey, by chance, can you drop that one in the door and you can leave your lead in the yard? Yeah, I got you. I'll pay you for it, but just put the tail in the door. Put it into the door, put it in door 91. What's going on? Sheesh. I've been waiting for $3,000, baby. Go ahead and give me together. Give me rice, G. It's literally been two hours, y'all. Two hours on a dot. Don't get to this money. We ain't gonna never stop. You feel, you need, she's freezing out here. Hold on one second. Yeah, come straight in, Paul. Yeah, keep straight ahead. Yep, if you can, can you put it right between the wheel wells if it's possible? That light probably messing y'all up. I don't know if y'all can see this thing good or not. Perfect. Appreciate you, boss. And just like that, it's time to hit the roll and tomorrow we gonna go, let's go. The next day. It's six in a morning, I'm trying to get this money Get this money. Oh, I'm supposed to go. I guess I'm supposed to stay right here and wait for somebody. Six in a morning. Coming below, let me know if you know about that. And we are trying to get this money. Get this money. Yeah, we wanna go. I'll have to go in here? Okay, good morning. I didn't know I was supposed to come in here. I have a job offer for you guys from Munderland. Are you at a door yet or not yet? Yeah, I have a van. I'm right here at this first one. Okay, he's gonna unload you. So you rigged me up like when I was at 11.30 and then for a different department, but they don't get here till seven, so he's gonna do something for you. Okay, thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah, you're welcome. That could have been another headache. Thank you. Y'all see what's going on with me? My God, by the given right. That's an extension, y'all see? For my cook, came with an extension. And I'm talking about, thank you. I don't even know what to say about this, baby. The pickup, at the pickup, it was a complete disaster. I literally sit there for two hours and 10 minutes before they got everything situated. It was not the pickup location for it. It wasn't that they thought. It was either the carrier company or it was the people who ordered the freight. It was one or the other. And they told me at the pickup location, they specifically told them that the order was not gonna be ready at five o'clock. The freight was not even there. So the person who had the freight and their semi, they was coming from another state.  So I literally waited two hours and 10 minutes. And I only got an extra $10 for sitting there and waiting. Now, why did I only get an extra $10? I only got an extra $10 because in like the, this whole trucking thing is the thing called detention. And with detention, I only get paid a certain amount after I sit there for two hours. So after you wait two hours, I usually get $40 an hour every hour after the first two hours. The first two hours is free. So I only got an extra $10 for that for two hours and 10 minutes. We barely got any, but we had to do, we had to do.   You're supposed to get more. Look, this was my whole mindset about taking this order. First off, let me just be honest. I didn't want to take the order in the first place. I was at home, editing the video. The order came in. The suggested price was $150. I'm like, I really don't want to do it, but I'm trying to get this money, understand me. So I'm gonna put it in at $150, right? Paul, I put the bid in at $150. So they called me, let me know we got the low. Go ahead and start heading there. The reason why I took this load in the first place, I'm gonna be honest with you guys, I did not want to take it because it was already 5 p.m. The pickup time was 5 p.m. It was like four o'clock. It's not that far from ours. It was like 35 minutes from my house to pick up the load, right? I didn't want to take it because I knew it was gonna be more traffic. But my whole theory behind taking this order was I'm gonna make $150. I'm gonna come out the gate at six in the morning and I'm gonna be already up 150 right there. So that's my whole theory about it. I know that some people may frown upon you letting it, you're supposed to get paid more for a layover because it's staying in your van over $9 stuff. Man, look, I'm trying to get this money as fast as possible. So that was my whole theory behind taking this load. I know that I had to keep it overnight, but my whole thing is at the end, I don't have to pay for it in the beginning, but in the end, we gonna win. We'll keep on getting these different ends. Now, load number two, get this money is what we about to do.  This is a pretty bad order.  We are gonna drive 54 deadhead miles, 92 miles loaded. So 146 miles altogether for $200. Hey, when they hit me, they holla. I know, I know, I know. I'm gonna explain everything, but it's time for us to go get this green. Let's go. Hey, how you doing, sir? I'm gonna have a load to pick up from you guys to go to Bensonville, Illinois. I say have a load to pick up from you guys to go to Bensonville, Illinois. Okay, all right. Thank you, sir. All right, bye-bye. And just like that, my dad about to get us right so we can get our pockets tight. You know what I'm talking about? I'm about to pull it off. I'm pulling it off on you. It's actually pretty light stuff. Yeah. I think it's like 109 pounds or something like that. The lighter, the better. The lighter, the better. Yeah, our logistics guy made me keep quite yesterday. I already quit by his last day yesterday, so. Logistics guy, really? Yeah, I don't know, J. No. I've never heard of you before. Wow, really? So now you have to do everything by yourself?  All you guys do is sit in the office. That's what they say. That's what they say. And just like that, we gone. It's time for us to get it on. Let's go.   I'm trying to ball it like a hot sauce, baby. Your copies, the rest. So the ones right here are our copies. So what you do now, you're gonna hit that blue button right there in that gate. And you're gonna wait in line with those guys, okay? Whenever they come and get you, show them this right here. Whenever they finish, they'll keep this one, so they'll sign those for you, all right? Okay. Thank you very much, sir. I appreciate your help. You have a good one. I didn't get to put on a double camera for y'all, man. I had to get in and get out, baby. You know what I'm talking about? I'm trying to do what I can do and how I can do it. We're not gonna do what I can do it. Thank you very much, you guys. Have a good one. Now, let's get right down to business. Why did I take this order? I asked you guys in the beginning of the video, which one is more important to you? Is it time or is it the mouse? Comment, if you ain't coming below and let me know, comment below and let me know right now. Don't try to, hey, don't try to use what I use.  Tell me how you really, tell me how you really feel about which one is more important to you? Is it the mouse or is the time? Now, let me explain to you guys the reason why I initially took the order in the first place. I took this order in the first place because we had just dropped off that order at 6 a.m., the first order. We dropped that off at 6 a.m., right? So we come towards home, right? So I put in a few bids. We didn't get it. We didn't get it. We didn't get it. We didn't get it. Then this one comes up and it's going from north. We just up north. It's going north to south. I know when we get to south, that is where all the freight comes out. That's where everything comes out at in that area. That's right by the airport. If you're familiar with the area, it's in the Dez Plains, Bensonville, Wooddale, all that area right there. That's where everything flow out of. So I'm like, okay, cool. We're going to shoot up here. It only took us one hour to get to the pickup location from where we visit. It took us one hour. And then it took us an hour and 30 minutes back to get to the drop off location. So we just made $200 in two and a half hours. Comment below and let me know, aren't you doing that? I know that the mouse is, you're worrying about the mouse, the mouse, the mouse, the mouse, the mouse. I understand. But we just made $200 in two and a half hours. If I had put $200 in two and a half hours on the title, you would have clicked it, right? You would have clicked that. And you would have said, yeah, I'm trying to make $200 in two and a half hours. I'm just saying, come up below and let me know. Now I know you're going to say this, what about the gas? I understand about the gas. We use less than a half a tank to do that. So it doesn't go to take like $60 to fill up the tank. So we, so take away $30. So we made $170 in two and a half hours. Come up below and let me know if you would do it now. But guess what? We have another order. Let's go out here and get an order. This one is one deadhead mouse, 14 miles loaded. So 15 miles altogether for $100. Come up below and let me know if you would go out there and pop your collar, let's go. We're here now. You all know that a couple Porsche trucks, a couple old schools. My guy Russ. Right on time. We got here on the ground. What's going on with you, boss? Yeah. I got something going to Franklin Park. Do you want the number? I got the number you needed. No, I got it. I got something else to check on it. Okay. I'll meet you in a minute. All right, we'll set you off. Perfect. I'm good right there. Yep. Now to get this paperwork so we can make that paperwork. You did. We'll set you off, so you have a good one. And just like that, we gone. Y'all already know what time it is. We're talking about the school. Let's go. How you doing? Hey, yourself? Guess I'm pretty dirty. Shake the hand. I'm dirty. Oh. What's up? Can you get another one? Yes, sir. I wish I had one every day, but I can't have them all. My guy, Ron. Super cool dude. I've been great. I can't complain. I woke up this morning. Some people didn't make it. So we got to be thankful for every day. So right here, like this, you're so positive. Hey, that's how it's supposed to be, Ron. That's how it's supposed to be. I understand life hard, but complaining ain't going to change nothing. It's still going to be the same thing when you're done. That one got some weight to it, huh? Yeah, no keepin'. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. I wish I took this one for nothing else, but hey, you got to do some time to brace our load right now. So there it is. Thank you very much. You have a good one, sir. Hey, I explained everything and why I did what I did, baby. I understand that some people may disagree. Some people may agree. Some people may think that you're tweakin'. I'm messin' up the race. I'm doin' all this stuff. I'm doin' it. I ain't gettin' no money. I know you think all of that right now, baby. We just made $460 in seven hours. Would you do that? Comment below and let me know. I know I know about the gas and it's... Me personally, I'm just gonna tell you guys the truth. I'm choosin' time over the miles every single time. It's not even a question for me. This is why, let me explain to you what, right? Why choose the time over the miles? If you look at one of the orders, so say we in Chicago, right? We're downtown. We in Chicago, gettin' busy, right? They're miles and my miles here is not the same thing. It's not even close. Five miles in Chicago may take you 40 minutes, 30 minutes, cause all the traffic and everything. Five miles, here's gonna take you five minutes. That's how fast it's gonna be, five minutes. So, you do wanna consider that while you are here trying to get busy. I know everybody has a different situation. Everybody lives in different areas. So, hey, your five miles is my five miles. My five miles is not your five miles. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. And if you're not subscribed, make sure to subscribe, but also give me a thumbs up. And don't forget to throw them seas up. Throw them seas up before we go. Y'all already know we went out there to go, get a pop like Chris Co. I will see you guys on the next one.


From the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, it's theCUBE, covering AT&T Spark. Now, here's Jeff Frick. Hey, welcome back, everybody. Jeff Frick here at theCUBE. We're at AT&T Spark event. It's up in San Francisco at the Palace of Fine Arts, really all about 5G. And we're excited to be here. You know, there's been a lot of conversation about 5G for a very, very long time, and we're super excited to have the expert in the field. Maribel Lopez has been following this forever, so Maribel, first off, thanks for stopping by. Thanks for hosting a few segments and great to catch up. Excited to be here. Absolutely, so 5G, you made a funny comment before we went on. He said, Jeff, this 5G's been going on forever, never and ever, but now it's finally starting to come to reality, to fruition. Yeah, I got to see all the Gs. The 2G to 3G, the 4G, now the 5G. And for a couple of years, we were just talking about standards. So what's really exciting to me is that now people are talking about doing production stuff, not just rolling in a test van and prototype equipment, but actual things that we might be able to see deployed within the coming year. People are talking about lighten-up cities, AT&T announced another five cities that they were gonna put, actually seven, I think, on the category. We're gonna do a dozen, I think, now that they had another. Yes, they had seven, they had another five, and then another seven, so we're really starting to see momentum in 5G. It's gonna happen. Right, so there's a bunch of things in 5G that are fundamentally different than the last G. And the first one, right, is it wasn't really developed just for faster voice. That was not the objective of 5G. It's really to take advantage of IoT and this whole kind of machine to machine world in which you're entering. That's a fundamental difference in terms of the applications that it can open up. Yeah, we're seeing, to your point, I mean, we talked a lot about bandwidth before. Yes, you get more bandwidth, but you also get lower latency and that's the thing of how fast something can travel. And that opens up a huge amount of new applications like autonomous driving. If you want a wireless connection and autonomous driving, you need 5G, so you have that really sharp response time to make it happen. If you're doing remote medicine, 5G gives you both bandwidth, but also the latency to see if something's happening so that you can do things that are real-time in nature. So I think it's that real-time in nature with high speed that everybody's talking about. We saw eSports and gaming listed today and the discussion about how you could now do it on a low-end PC because between your 5G network and new software, you've got this huge opportunity with the cloud to just do a whole new different way of gaming and entertainment. So lots of great applications are coming out with 5G. It was pretty interesting on that demo because it was an NVIDIA guy talking about having basically an NVIDIA data center to do all the graphic computation back in the cloud at the NVIDIA data center and then delivering it to whatever kind of low-end edge device that you had in this case, a laptop. The funny thing about the latency that I thought really kind of struck home for me was they talked about when your audio and your video are slightly out of sync when you're watching a video. When it's just off a little bit. Not enough like, wait, this is broken, but enough to actually get nausea. You actually have a physical reaction. So I think that was really interesting. That is what's going to go away when we have the better connectivity speeds, everything else with 5G. And I think that's been one of the things that's been holding back the immersive nature of new applications like VR. So that disconnect that you talked about is really important to get rid of that. And you can get rid of part of that with wireless and part of it with low latency. So if we get the headsets a little smaller and we get more content, I think we'll start to get a better vision of what's happening there. I also think we're starting to see these things come into the enterprise. The enterprises are really taking 5G seriously. They're looking at doing things like their own private 5G networks and things like manufacturing and robotics, for example. Right, right. Yeah, the private 5G, interesting. There's a lot of conversation too about doing it for the first responders to have their own dedicated network. But one of the topics I thought was interesting was the commitment to software and the commitment to open source. And we've kind of seen the rise of the telcos in OpenStack. We've been covering OpenStack I think since 2013. And you could see with each and every passing year that the telco presence within the OpenStack community just increased and it really seemed to find a home. And here they dedicated a whole keynote session to AT&T's embracing of open source. Yeah, open source is actually interesting because I think it's counterintuitive to think that a large enterprise customer like AT&T would go so deep into open source. But when you really think of it, if you want to be innovative and you want to run at what we now consider cloud speed, digital native speed, then you need to have that concept of open source and open APIs to build on top of so that really what you're focusing on is the part of your business that differentiates you, not on building the whole stack. So the days of building your whole stack from scratch are over and open source is really important. And what I found really interesting about that was the takeaway that so many companies, even competitors of each other, had all thrown in on this concept of this open source technology so that they could basically bootstrap their innovation. Right. The other kind of theme that came up which I found really interesting is if you've ever seen Jeff Bezos speak on his investment in Blue Origin, he talks very specifically that he wants to put a platform in play, leveraging the winnings that he's gotten from Amazon, to enable future entrepreneurs to have an infrastructure in which they can build cool applications, in this case for space. We heard the same message here within this kind of 5G, the concept of infinite compute, infinite bandwidth, and infinite storage, asymptotically approaching zero, what applications would you build in that world? And really this constant conversation of experience, whether that be a business experience, a consumer experience, first responder experience is really what's behind the excitement on this 5G conversation. I think there was always a disconnect of when you get data and how quickly you can analyze that data and get it back to somebody to do something meaningful. So this whole experience is about even if you are not holding a 5G handset or some 5G thing in your hand or elsewhere, what that will do is because they've built the 5G infrastructure, you get the opportunity to make 4G better for everybody. So I think people think, oh, I've got to wait for 5G. It's like, no, you're going to see the benefits of 5G long before everybody's ubiquitously deployed and long before everybody has 5G devices, things are just going to work better and that you can get that data faster and new experiences faster. So I'm excited for it. Right, and then the other piece that we hear over and over is AI, machine learning. And again, it's not AI and machine learning just for the sake of AI and machine learning. It's baked into all these other applications to make them all work better. And again, that's another big thing that we hear here at the Keynotes. Yeah, I think the AI machine learning is interesting because we've had it for a long time but now everybody has access to it, right? We've got cloud services that give you algorithms. We've got massive compute and now we've got the ability to take all the data from IoT sensors and other things and get it back to either a centralized place or to do edge compute on it, which I think is really exciting. Right, so just to wrap, get your final impressions on the show and again, you said you've been here for all the Gs. So is the 5G, is this a big difference from our prior step functions? I think it is because of that latency that we talked about and the ability to do much more real-time and data-intensive apps. So you've always had this concept of moving to more data but it had lower latency, it might have had higher costs. Now we're getting that right kind of combination of cost, bandwidth, real-time nature. So I think every G gets better and 5G is just better than 4G, but in different ways. So. All right, and Maribel, thanks again for stopping by and also for helping us out, I guess I was thinking a few segments. Thank you. All right, she's Maribel, I'm Jeff. You're watching theCUBE. We're at AT&T Spark in San Francisco. Thanks for watching.


Going on everyone Sam here with late and sports cards. We are ripping I died you too.

It's electric She's electric Like the most boring player to lack of all time Just mid-range God six standing tungsten Some mid-range mid-range jumpers dude know about that sick That is pop what's up Shane Shane in some doubts tonight Shane Think so like Mitchell and sparkle of Luke Schlager Fractor Cade Morris Jason Savakool Jake Cunningham jet Eric Patonsi Colton Ledbetter Barca Lamar first base out of Blake Mitchell very nice. Here we go. Let's start Congrats on that Here we go Royals. That's Jones and Bryce Eldridge Hell yeah, it is that a Tuesday connection Wednesday nights always pop off to Both ways I feel like there's always I'm in Gatlingbury without the Xbox for a few days. Gosh. No, no not Gatlinburg That's a pretty cool place That's Tennessee, right? Troy very torn city You gotta go to Dollywood Shane come on get over to pigeon forge Noble Meyer and Jake the Leo to 125 No, no Brady's yet. No Brady's yet surprisingly pulled some earlier like I not me personally But we have is the company James Woods in 99. Yeah, it's definitely quicker than I thought com Camp Alderman Brayden Taylor Max Clark Carlson Reed are burns. I was in red. Oh, we're bush. They saw it Nice one there. So preacher preacher. What up, buddy? Marcelo Andrew Jones And it's been a good one. Yeah, it's a big card tonight. Yeah, it's some really good cards Woodson, I like Chuck Woodson. That's a good pick Yeah, exactly Kong. Oh Yeah, I'll point you to chase Well, I mean, yeah, I mean there's even if the even when the 12 of 15 and the 12 of 25 we uphold There's still like 60 Brady autos out there. You know, I mean white Langford plus I mean all the base to all the numbered base so Like this product's always gonna have a lot of values for Brady just still Brady. Oh, yeah Johnny for a mellow Nice one there for the Mariners and a 250 Jackson Shurio Like they're never gonna this product's never gonna like truly die Yes, I believe he did bleach.

Oh Yeah, I'm gonna wait a little bit. Yeah, true True. I mean, it's crazy. Just even like looking back at like 2022 bowman like how big it is because Ellie's in the big now like James Woods shot up and Other guys have made their debuts and all that kind of stuff wild man Like 21 drafts. We're starting to see guys like slowly filter into the MLB Skeens first will be a cool thing to hit in a couple years. Yeah.  We're like, oh my god. What's God about this? Looks like he's in the wrong place, dude Walker Lucas courts like I took a kid out of the crowd put him into a uniform Jb shoes Get real Gonzalez nice Blake Mitchell to one 499 Grats on that one. There you go. Let's go Royals get that into a mag.

Thanks again for the fill coming up next is the last mixer of the day number 15


Let's now take you to River State where the governor, Similay Fubara, has declared the air on the decision of the River State government to cancel the recent employment at Ignatius Ajiro University of Education, saying it was as a result of the glaring irregularities associated with the process. Governor Fubara gave the explanation while addressing the River State chapter of the National Youth Council of Nigeria, who were on a courtesy visit. The governor said the employment process contravened the earlier approved 420 academic staff out of a total of 867 persons. Contrarily a total of 1,900 persons were employed out of which only 123 were academic staff. He requested for the employment of 867 persons for employment in the academic institution. 430 something are supposed to be academic staff and the difference non-academic. Now you submitted already employed list of 1,900 and something. Out of this 1,900, you employed only 123 academic staff. Is it proper? In the higher institutions, who are the major people you need? Is the academic staff? Just a few. So in that kind of situation, what do you expect us to do? Because we want to please our people. We swallow it. No, we can't do that. That is the major reason of that council. Earlier in his address, the Chairman of the National Youth Council of Nigeria, River State Chapter, Chijouke Ihonwar, said the visit was to congratulate the governor on his electoral victory and the appointment of a youth activist, Chisoum Bali, as commissioner of youth affairs in the state. U.S.L.S.E., we like your policy. The flag of the protocol tree, the ring root cut across the six local governments. It's going to develop our states. Multinationalists, we need to come in. There will be business moving our state. U.S.L.S.E., you want to also call on you to also please. That while we don't have access to these IOCs, because they are most of the head office are not in protocols. And if the state assembly can enact a law, asking them to come back and also ensure that 70% of their workforce should come from where they operate, we can now have access to what is happening. For example, we go to our GPC, a senator from the North, recommending somebody on IT from Kuala Lumpur to come here for IT after the IT person becomes staff. Now in a whole state where these businesses are holding, now people finish and nothing for them, they will ask you to wait, wait and we are still waiting. As I say, please, this appeal want to make to you.
