Hey guys, this is Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. Footmis is here, and boy, did we get a surprise today when they actually started the Footmis promo with the team of the year nominees. All that stuff happened late. Team of the year nominees, Footmis, and Road to the Final Upgrades all happened today. So I wanna talk about all three of those things in this video today. I wanna go with the Footmis promo, what I think we can expect, talk about the team of the year nominees, and what that did to the market today, and also talk about the Road to the Final Upgrades, which actually just happened pretty recently when I'm recording this video right now. But obviously, everybody thought Footmis was coming today. We got the car design last night, we got the pack cover design, we saw all that stuff, and we had the loading screen as well. We had the team of the year vote yesterday as well, but I'm gonna talk a little bit more about this later in the video, but I feel like I should have expected more. I should have expected the team of the year nominees coming since we had that car design put into the pack code, and that was known last night. So that, I should have realized that because whenever they put something in the pack code the night before, usually something comes the next day. Like, if something gets put in the night before, it usually comes the next day. So I do wanna speak about that a little bit later. But two SBCs today, we have the Veet Sal and the Moses Simon SBC. Of course, Player of the Month's Sadi Omani which I think is really just getting overlooked because Mane has so many special cards.  We'll find out soon on who they draw for the knockout rounds, but he could very easily get a 91 rated card when his champions he got and gets upgraded.  But I think this SBC does come in somewhere along the lines of 800,000 coins. So, I mean, it is a bit of a, I think it's like a good value. I mean, it's probably about where that card would be valued if he was an inform, he might be around a million as an inform, maybe a little bit less. But that is a very good card.  But I wanna talk about Footmas. And a lot of times what we do for Footmas is we actually go and look at the page that EA has put out for us today. And the webpage that was Footmas, they have a cool little graphic right here. Starting today, December 13th, squad building challenges, daily squad building challenges. So kind of like last year, new objectives and FIFA 20 team, their nominees and packs for a limited time. That is a week. They are gonna be in packs until the 20th, so next week. But this is what I want you guys to understand today. This is one of the main things we're gonna talk about is the Footmas player SBCs and objectives. So we are going to be getting two player SBCs every 24 hours. So kind of like last year, we got three SBCs each day. Today we're just getting, or this year we're getting two, but we're getting more objective players as well. And I'm gonna show you this, it's actually kind of cool. So two player SBCs each day decided by nationality and decided by league, right? In the spirit of Footmas, one of the player SBCs will be inspired by the latest FIFA men's international rankings as of November 28th. The nation's category will start in December 13th with Axel Witzel from Belgium, who are ranked first in the world, will finish December 24th with a player from Switzerland, who are ranked 12th. So they're starting at number one and going to number 12 in terms of FIFA men's international rankings for international teams. And then for league, the other SBC that we'll get each day will be selected from either the Prem, Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligon or Serie A. So the top five leagues, actually, okay yeah, the top five leagues, I thought I read that wrong for a second, but our normal top five leagues, based on their league position standing at the end of the 2018-2019 season, we're gonna start with 12th place today with the Moses Simon, Nantes got 12th in Ligon and now we're gonna go down to first place and we're gonna rotate between those five leagues. And I, okay, I do remember this from last year, we didn't really get consecutive leagues in terms of when they count down the leagues, like since we got Ligon, we're probably not gonna get Ligon the next day tomorrow, right? We might not get a Ligon player, we probably won't get a Ligon player for the next position down in terms of the next, like finishing position in that league. So that's something to think about and you can maybe write off some of those cards to invest in that day, because a lot of the footnest cards, as we're gonna talk about, do go up and down a price depending on what is needed for those SBCs. In addition, the 24 player SBCs, so think about that boys, 24 different player SBCs we're gonna be coming out in the next 12 days. Six more players will be available through objectives, giving you a potential for 30 new footnest players to pick up this festive season. 30 different cards they're gonna be putting out for footnest this year. Now the first one we got today was the Whistle and we did get the Moe's assignment and it's kinda nice because they give us a loan version because you don't actually have to go out and do the SBC to find out if you want that card. You can do the loan version of the card at a very decreased value to figure out, test that card out for a few games to see if you want that card. And also, cards like this, the loans, if it's so cheap, man, I would consider doing a lot of these loan cards because you might end up down the road finding that one of these loan cards, all you have to do is turn in one leak unsquad with an overall rating of 55, so you can use silvers and bronzes. Well, you might have to use a couple silvers, maybe a gold or two, because of the block brick here in this SBC, but some of these could definitely help you out down the road with objectives because these loan cards are gonna be first owner and also if they're like a certain nationality like Nigeria for Moe's assignment or even Belgium for Whistle, if we ever have a KDB objective down the road or something like that or another Belgium player, something like this might help you. So if you're somebody who wants to be super duper prepared, but you don't wanna spend the actual coins for the SBC, maybe go out and just do the really cheap loan version, chuck in your club and it could help you for later. So that's one tip I have for you guys. But again, if you look at the requirements for the full versions of these SBCs, so we'll look at the full version of Axel Whistle, which according to Footbin, costs you around 47,000 coins, which isn't terrible. 47K for this card. You need a team of the week or foot champions players, minimum one and 84 rated squad and one Bundesliga player. So they use the league instead of the nationality, which is interesting because this SBC came from the Belgian nationality. But not too bad of an SBC. If you're a Dortmund fan, I mean, that's a pretty solid card you can throw in your squad. A lot of people are probably doing this one as a super sub, but it does cost you around 50,000 coins that you think is a little bit over the top. It actually required a once to watch player as well for this SBC, but I don't think that really made a once to watch players rise because you can easily get discard team league players at 82 or 83 rated. So I don't think that once to watch has really moved today a substantial amount because of that. But again, that is another SBC we've got today. The first two SBCs were kind of lackluster, right? Vitzel was decent value, but nothing fantastic. And then our objective player out here actually is pretty good. And that is Gabamen. Bombing, however you say his name. The Everton CDM, who so many people used early on this year in foot as a starter squad CDM for your prime teams. This guy does look very good, but it's gonna be a little bit of a grind to get him. There are multiple of these with rivals score using Ivory Coast players and four separate rivals wins. That causes Zaha to go up a lot today. Boys, I'm gonna be honest, when we get an SBC or an objective player like this, we're honestly any good objective player that requires something so specific like this, score using an Ivory Coast player and four separate rivals wins. When you have this really, really select nationality like that, I mean, think about all the guys in the Ivory Coast, right? The easiest one that's gonna be able to fit into most people's teams is gonna be Zaha. And that's the guy who went up a lot today. Probably some other ones did as well. But there's a lot of ways that you can quickly invest and quickly go and make purchases from the objectives that we get based on the stuff that comes out. And does this expire? When does this expire, man? It doesn't say that it expires. I don't see anywhere where this says it expires, interesting. I would assume that it will expire though at the end of the season maybe because these are season objective, I don't know, six days left in the season. So it would make sense that this promo is gonna end on Friday. So please probably end on Friday. But if you guys are getting that one, let me know. And of course we got a Footmist kit SBC today as well. Basically all you have to do is play a squad battles match, play some squad battles matches with Footmist players and you get actually some good packs here. So pay attention to this, to get the cool Footmist kit, play four squad battles matches with at least four Footmist players in your starting squad. You get a prime gold players pack. So I would do this, man. I would really do this if you can. That's not too bad of an objective right there. So that's basically the stuff we're talking about for Footmist. Now, if we kind of look ahead in terms of what can we look for after this? What kind of stuff can we look for after this? Obviously, this is the, this guy on Twitter right here, Iveala. We looked at his tweet yesterday. He's got another great tweet today. So tomorrow or today it's gonna be French. So we are expecting some big time possibilities for French today and possibly some cards that we could get for that French nationality. So I wanted to make you guys aware of that, okay? French nationality today could be a big player, SBC, excuse me, could be a Sasoko, could be a Furlan Mendi. Those are two names that I've seen thrown out a lot in the community. And then also we're gonna be getting a player that finished, their club finished 11th. So we're counting down from 12, now we're at to 11. So it's gonna be Watford, Hertha, Alves, Strasburg or Sasuolo. And if I would pick any club that I do think this could be from, I honestly might pick Sasuolo. I do think we could get, there's one Italian striker, his name might be Caputo, is that his name? He's gotten a team of the season cards in the past. That might be the type of player that we get tomorrow. But of course we could get a Watford card as well. And it may be, I don't know, there's plenty of options from Watford. And Hertha, plenty of options all around, but those are kind of the teams that we had to look forward to tomorrow. France is obviously gonna be a big nationality. So a Saturday on FIFA Ultimate Team, a lot of people are probably gonna be looking forward to a French SBC. It's kind of interesting, right? Because with the nationalities, we're starting big boys at the top. Belgium, France, Brazil, English, Uruguay, like all these nationalities are good, but we have some really big time possibilities early on with the foot miss SBC. So that makes me think about investing a little bit. Could we possibly get into any investments in terms of by that nationality or by what teams we saw come up today? You know, Watford, for the position in 11th place team with like Watford, Strasburg, I wouldn't really mess up with that one too much because out of those teams, I don't really see too much potential for really high rated players out of those. But we're talking French, and I think the French SBC is gonna be the one that is really, really important tomorrow. So if you could possibly get League One or French players, League One, I'm just basically saying because there's a lot of League One players in France. And if you need some high chemistry in those squads, you might need some links or those. Obviously, Rufi here is an 84 rated card. He's a goalkeeper, he's pretty cheap. You know, I'm thinking about guys like, well, Tolisso is technically impacts now. So basically if you just go through some of these nationalities or these ratings, I'm gonna sort by PS price on the 83 rated cards in the game. And then I'm gonna sort by Nations as well. I'm actually gonna search France, boom. So basically you can go in here to FIFA 19 or FIFA 20, FIFA 20 players and sort by your nationalities. So the cheapest French 83 right now is Sebastian Holler at 1.8K. That's not a bad shout, especially if it is a Soco. You know, you might need a Premier League player as well. Since the first day, they required a Bundesliga player on the SBC that came from the National Men's Ranking. You know, we got the Belgium Witzel and it required a Bundesliga player. So maybe it would require a Premier League player tomorrow if he gets a Soco. That's just a thought. It could require a LaLiga player. So maybe a guy like Thomas Lamarwood could be a buy. He's 3000 coins, a little bit inflated. As you can tell, there's not a ton of French guys in like the 83 rating. The 84 rating as well, I think is kind of low on the French kind of situation. And of course it all depends on who we get for the SBC tomorrow, but the high ratings have kind of returned to a lower level now in this game thanks to all the pack supply and the panic that we had today. There actually wasn't that many packs opened, but the stuff that went into packs made a lot of this stuff go down. And a lot of people are still probably like panic selling investments because of the messy SBC not really working out and so many people are unassigned and they're trying to get out of unassigned on some of those cards. So if you see any low costing French guys like Benzema's new card, the team of the year nominee Benzema is like the cheapest 88 rated car right now. Open just said he was 26K, looks like he's 29 now. But that's not a terrible shout for an SBC investment, right? Because these cards have very high pack weight but he's still gonna be really rare compared to any other gold cards or even UCL cards on the market because he's been packed for literally one day. He's been in packs. So if some of these guys like a Verratti or a Benzema is the cheapest by their player rating, that's a decent shout to maybe invest a little bit in, especially with like a France SBC coming the day. I would maybe look to pick a few of those up if you can. Stormy or transfer list just to see what happens. But I do wanna talk about these team of your nominee cards because they really, really shook up the market today. And actually you can't even see all the cards right here. So I'm gonna go back over to, I'm gonna go back over to EA Sports' Twitter to show you guys the full squads and what is in. Because this, again, this is something that I feel like I should have mentioned last night when I was talking about the foot mist stuff coming. The fact that this car design was in the pack code last night, it should have triggered something in my mind because every single other time something it's put in the pack code, that like triggers like, oh shoot, it's gonna come tomorrow. But for whatever reason with the team of the year vote, I didn't think twice about these team of the year nominee cards being a, their card put it being put into the code. And that should have registered, but it didn't.  It's even higher than last week's team of the group stage cards and that is really causing the market to take a tumble today. It's really interesting though, because these were plus one upgrades and they were basically just plus one across the board. They're like the equivalent of last year's UCL cards that we had. There were a plus one upgrade over the gold card and those came out early on in the year. So these are basically plus one upgrades over their gold cards.  So they are making waves in the market and they're causing a lot of prices to go down, especially if that card had other informs or other special cards. That's the case where it really drug some card prices down today. But it's honestly kind of cool, I think. I mean, a lot of people were mad at this today because, you know, they see these players come out, there's more cards and packs and it brings the market down and everybody's just kind of upset because the market just keeps going down and EA crashes the market every week and they keep losing coins. But in reality, that's how EA makes money and we just have to begin to prepare and maybe even put more work into trading or building teams, maybe around untradable players that we can use for longer periods of time just to be smart with these market crashes that seem to be coming every week. So I know that upsets some people today and I get it because every week you're going to look to maybe change somebody up in your team and instead of selling them for the same price that you bought them or a little bit more, you're selling for sometimes like three quarters or sometimes even half the price that you bought them at depending on how long you've owned them. But we're going to look at some of these cards today specifically, there's the goalkeeper nominees and then here's the midfielder. So some of these cards have other informs and special cards in the game already and some of them do not. And that's why these cards are going to be very interesting going forward because they're in the game for the rest of the year, right? They have a really high pack weight, they're in the game for the rest of the year and it's basically an option that we're going to have. These are basically like those UCL cards that I was mentioning from last year but they have a really sweet card design and some of them are entering the game and providing a kind of a nice little upgrade boosted card that you can use in certain positions. I'll just talk about one right away, right wing sterling. So many people love the sterling card but his first special card was the left wing team of the group stage. Now he has a right wing card and if you look at the price difference between the sterling right wing and the left wing, there's really not that much of a difference, man. Like I think sterling team of the group stage is still somewhere around like 210,000 coins. Maybe I can find it right in here. He's actually under 200K, he's like 190 at the moment and I think the new sterling version is actually somewhere around like 160 or 170. Yeah, 170 right here for this new sterling card. So yes, it looks cool, right? I know it's only a plus one in every statistic. Like you compare it to the normal, this is basically the gold card of sterling with the same stats as the gold and now you have this team of the year nominee item. The basically the difference is the dynamic image and that really makes the cards make some look cool, right? It makes people want to use them. The stats again aren't a huge boost but these cards got packed so much today. I think people opened a ton of safe packs that they had for team of the year today because we did not even get lightning rounds. Now of course the pack weight is high. We got one pack supply SBC which wasn't a huge pack and we didn't even get lightning rounds. We just had like these packs right here basically like the rare players packs, 6% chance out of a 50K pack. Insane by the way, huge, huge pack supply. But I think people opened safe packs today because they saw these cards come into the game and that really made sense for how much, not panic I guess, but some of the price movements that we saw on these cards early on in today's game. I want to look at one card, an example, right when the SBC promo, right when this promo dropped today when these cards came onto the market, this Allison card was 120,000 coins. It actually reached 111K at one point. I wasn't really watching him that much but I checked his price just to see where it was and I saw him at like 115K and then literally I checked his card 15, 30 minutes later and it was all the way up at 140. So the pack opening stopped kind of like the second hour after these cards had been put into packs and then everything just shot up after that because people want to use this card, right? It's an upgraded version of Allison with a dynamic image and it's a fricking sweet card design. It makes sense why people want to use these cards in their teams and in this game. And I think you're going to see this trend continue where these cards, people want to have these cards in their teams. Now you guys are playing Weekend League right now. So report back to me while you're watching this video if you've played any Weekend League. What kind of, what, like how often are you seeing these new cards in people's teams? That's my major question for you guys. How often are you seeing these new versions of these team of your nominee cards? Are you seeing them in a lot of teams? Because I would be really curious to see and to know if you guys are seeing a lot of those but your next question probably is why does it affect the market so much? Well, because a lot of guys, like the guy that I saw on my transfer list, right? Cool Bali had a team of the group stage that was around 90,000 coins. And today we had a team of your nominee Cool Bali get dropped onto the market. So obviously big drop in price for this 90 Cool Bali card. Some of the group stage cards actually have higher statistics than the team of your nominees do. But the team of your nominees, man, it's just the card design. And I'm going to be honest with you boys. I think some people think that these team of your cards are live items because why in the world would this Cool Bali 68,000 coins for Cool Bali as the new team of the year live item. And he is more expensive on the market than team of the group stage Cool Bali who has plus one pace, plus one physical and plus one dribbling on this card. It's literally just the fact that it's a new card in this game and that it's got the team of your card design. I really think that that's what it comes down to with these cards. So Cool Bali there at 75K. You can see that Cool Bali right here is going to expire for like 70K. Their prices are pretty similar now. He's a little bit up from where he was, he was 60K at one point. But I'm going to be taking some big Ls today. This is just one example. Okay, actually this card is cheaper than the team of the group stage. All right, people got their minds right now. DG's, it wasn't at one point, but that's where you saw a lot of the panic today. The overlapping on the special cards, Fabinho was another great example, right? So Fabinho's inform was around like 200,000 coins today before the promo came out. Now you look at Fabinho's inform, he's like 100,000 coins, 120, 115, crazy, crazy drop in price for this card because he basically got that new team of your nominee item. If I can find it, where is it at? Where is it right there? Basically another dynamic image and it's basically the same stats as his inform, minus one dribble, minus one defense. So that's why you see a lot of the panic on these cards today. Now, Alisson, like I mentioned, he doesn't have any other informs, right? So this card is really interesting to people because he doesn't have any special cards in the game. People love to use VVD and people love to use guys like Eddermila Tao as I cannot type in his price range. So this is a card that a lot of people have been looking for, like his team of the year. Like a lot of people would like Alisson's team of the year card. So you see this today and it's a reason where you can put Alisson in your team and an upgraded version of him instead of just using the gold or the UCL live. So I think a lot of people are putting these cards like Alisson or in Edderson as well or in Erickson who doesn't actually have any other versions of special cards. But he now has the new, this item, the new team of the year nominee. So that's where you're seeing the market impacted by these cards a little bit in my opinion. But then what does this mean for the rest of this week and the rest of this weekend with the market? If you have high rated players that like, I'm talking Neymars, I'm talking Messys, I'm talking literally a lot of stuff. If you, I mean, this pack weight really tells the story for everything. For the rest of this next week, I don't expect the market to go up kind of like during team of the group stage. I expect everything to stay low and not even rebound because all week it's gonna be an SBC promo alongside of a crazy pack supply team of the year nominee with a fricking sweet card design with not very big upgrades but a lot of cards and packs.  So you're pulling coins off the market by EA releasing SBCs and people are losing coins on their teams. The market is losing a lot of coins right now, right? So like we're looking Neymar for the moment. Neymars, we're not looking at Neymars new card, we're looking at Neymars gold card. I think he's like 830K. Okay, he rose up a little bit today after the initial panic. Wow, he actually rose up a decent amount. Neymar is 860, he was like 830, 820 at one point today. If you guys have these cards still in your teams, I would consider getting them out please just because there's gonna be more of a drop in the next coming couple of days in my opinion because everybody's gonna be focused on the new team of your nominee cards, whatever foot mist cards come into packs and even the road to the final upgrades, people are gonna be focused on those. So I would say if you have stuff that you're not losing on, icons rebound a little bit tonight. If you're looking at my transfer list, you can tell I've been trading with a lot of icons at the moment. Just small, quick little flips, you know, 10, 15. I think I made like, I made 20K on that card. That was a nice one. But that's kind of the stuff that's been, you know, stable and still on this market is the icons. So that's why I bought some of those today after the panic. But other stuff, I am strongly encouraging you guys to probably take the coins on it sooner rather than later because I do feel like this Neymar card could easily be 800,000 coins flat. Comes Saturday night. And yes, that's today, Saturday night. I do feel like this card could drop a decent amount because if you look at a special item, this one, there might be a decent amount of price difference between the special item and his normal card. Actually not really. That's not too big of a difference to be honest. One, let's go like what? You think he's like 1.2 mil? I honestly don't know too much about this card. Let me look on footbed. How much is Neymar's new team of the year item? Team of the year Neymar item. It's 1.6. Okay, it's 1.6. But that's gonna be dropping as we go through packs and a lot of packs being opened this week. During this Fubus promo, we're gonna be having player SBCs, which means you probably get player SBCs. You might get some packs back from those SBCs if it's got multiple different portions of it. We'll probably get pack supply SBCs as well. If you wanna check the prices of these cards, the best way to do it is to go on footbed and go to new FIFA 20 players right here. This is the best way to look at the prices of these cards right here. And you can kinda scroll down and look through them because as of right now, Footbed does not have an actual team of the week set up for those. Now, I've already made this video way too long, but for the last couple minutes, I wanna talk about road to the final upgrades, all right? These just happened not too long ago on FIFA Ultimate Team and a lot of these cards are, you know, they're not really moving that much in price. They're kinda going down a little bit and you're seeing some people list them up. A lot of them had already dropped a little bit today due to the new team of the year nominee cards like this Angola Kante. He's actually, right now, I just on Xbox, or excuse me, on PlayStation, he's about 1.168 at the moment. But you can see today on his hourly graph, he was about 1.3 this morning, the team of the years came out and he went down to like 1.2 flat. So he hasn't really moved too much since the upgrade came out. And for a lot of these cards, they haven't moved too much. A few of them have gone up a smidge and a few of them have gone down a smidge. Militao was down. Juan Jesus is one person that I really wanna touch on. He got a massive, massive upgrade. The 81 to 84 that we knew was gonna be a big upgrade, it was a massive one. He went from up plus five dribbling and really, really solid in-game stats. But this card today was extinct at 93K. Now he's got a 360,000 coin price limit on the PlayStation. And it says 100,000 on the Xbox. Is that true? Can you guys confirm for me on Xbox? Is he actually 100K there? That's crazy. I would be really curious to watch this card and see what it goes to. Because right now, I think most of these other road to the finals, if you still have them, I would sell them, get them out. Because I think those cards are going lower with the rest of the market in the next couple of weeks, especially this next week, in my opinion. But this Wanezu special card, it shows right now is 90,000 coins. And there's continued to be, like every single minute or five minutes that I look at this card, he just keeps dipping lower and lower because there are so many people that have invested in this particular card that he just keeps getting listed and listed and listed because people are trying to sell their investments. Like look at this, no games played, no games played, no games played. Like a lot of these cards, again, I mentioned this in another video earlier than I did. So many of these cards are fresh, first owner, or not first owner, but they're fresh cards that people really haven't used because they've been investing in this card. So I would look for some undercuts on this. Do I think there's a possible rebound for some of the ones that got bigger upgrades, like the 81s to 84s, like this Wanezu. If you see him get back down to like an 80,000 coin range, or maybe even a little bit below that, I do think there's a possibility that he could rebound up from there because people are gonna wanna try this card, right? He's in low-high work rates. He got a pretty sizable boost, 97 jumping, 97 aggression.  It's gonna be a fantastic card. So this is the type of card that I could see. You know, as you guys in the UK are waking up this morning, maybe you see this guy's price rise up a little bit because a lot of the panic selling is gonna happen now overnight, and then maybe a little bit in the UK in the morning and then during the midday, you might see this card trend up a little bit as people wanna buy it and try it because Brazilian, you know, you could probably fit him into a lot of your weakening teams, especially with some of the new team of the year cards, but the consensus on most of these cards for me is, I would just get him out and I would sell him. I mean, they did get upgrades, but like Allen's upgrades were all plus ones, plus twos, plus ones and plus twos across the board for most people. DePie's card looks a little bit better now. I was a little bit disappointed in Jadon Sancho's upgrade because they didn't give him 80 shooting, man. If they gave Jadon Sancho, if they would have given him 80 shooting, I would have been very, very impressed with that upgrade, but I think he's still somewhere down in the realms of, he still has 79 shooting. Yes, we has 90 pace, 92 dribbling, 81 passing and 79 shooting. If they would have given him that upgraded shooting boost, I would have been very, very intrigued with this card and I think it might have gone up. Seriously, one stat, literally one face card stat, I think this card would be 20 or 30,000 coins more just because you would see that 80. And to a lot of people, 80 is the threshold of good in this game. So you see that with Levin Dossky's Team of the Groupsage card and his inform going from 79 and the Team of the Groupsage being 81 pace. You see that Team of the Groupsage item being a lot more expensive because of that pace boost. So, row to the final cards. Honestly, boys, I would get pretty liquid. I am preparing for myself to take the big loss on all the cool bollies that I have. You can see them right here. I've got all these for around like 80, 82 to 86 or 87,000 coins on most of these. So I am definitely losing, I'm losing my 30K card almost on a lot of these. So that is a big L, 30K times like I have eight or nine of them, right? Three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. So that's like a 300,000 coin loss almost. I tried to make it up today with a lot of these flips. I have some more flips going on here with some of these informs. And then I probably actually have made it up almost with just these icon flips. These icon flips have been really, really solid. There's a lot of panic today on some of these cards. Some sniping as well. If you guys want to do some bidding and some sniping, these cards still fluctuate a lot right now because they're new and they're not as supplied but they're not as supplied as other ones. And a lot of people are trying these. So if you want to do something quick flipping with the new team of the year cards, you can give that a shot and it should be maybe a way to make some coins on that. We're talking like bids and snipes and stuff like that. So very long video today. Thank you guys for hanging in there. I greatly appreciate it. But tons of stuff that we had to cover today. And I wanted to get it out in all one video so that you guys could understand it, maybe think about it a little bit and be ready headed into the second day of foot miss and of the team of your nominees being at PAX and what all that means for this game. If you liked the video, smash a thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you do have any questions and subscribe to the channel if you are new. It's been Nate, The Foot Accountant. Catch you guys later. Peace out.


on this beginning of Holy Week, on this passion, or as we typically call it, Palm Sunday, it's coincidental that I will be preaching on the last of the seven last words of Jesus Christ from the cross. I still plan on preaching one more sermon on this topic on Holy Thursday, but today we reflect on the last statement of Jesus before he died, and these are his words from the Gospel of Luke chapter 23. Father, into your hands I commend my spirit. Father, into your hands I commend my spirit. To set this statement of our Lord just a little more in context, let me read more of the passage. Then the veil of the temple was torn down the middle, Jesus cried out in a loud voice. Father, into your hands I commend my spirit. And when he had said this, he breathed his last. He breathed his last. Again, on a very natural way, we can understand the words of our Lord to mean that after everything has been taken from him, after his life is now coming to a close, he has nothing left but God, his Father. And so his spirit about to leave his body, he commends it to the Father. So he says, Father, into your hands I commend my spirit. It's very appropriate. I think anyone who loved the Father would entrust themselves to the Father in such a last effort at the end of their life. So the words of our Lord are very appropriate on a natural level. And notice that the text says he breathed his last. Well, the word in Hebrew, ruah, for breath is the same word for spirit. So he spirated his last. He gave up his spirit. And that's when he died. But again, if we stop there merely at a simple interpretation, we're going to miss so much of what our Lord is trying to communicate to each one of us even now. Reflecting on the words of Jesus throughout the Gospels, one of the things he makes clear is that no one can take his life from him. Jesus says, I lay it down freely. So when we look at his passion at this moment, we can never think, oh, they took his life. No, he laid it down freely by choice. And why is this important? Because Jesus being God and also being in the flesh is revealing to us what perfect love looks like. And theologically, we know that perfect love is what's often explained as the gift of self, where you give of yourself to another. And to the extent to which you make yourself a gift, sacrificing your time, your energy, your money, to that extent is to the extent in which you have loved. So Jesus revealing the love of God, he gives everything to us, everything, every drop of his blood, every agony, his very physical life. And after he has given everything in love to us for our salvation, the only thing left is his spirit. But that doesn't really belong to him to give away. But notice he doesn't keep his spirit for himself at the end of his life. He even gives that away. Father, into your hands, I commend my spirit. At this moment when Jesus died, he was totally empty. Nothing belonged to him, not even his spirit, for he had given it away. This is the perfect example of love, of self-sacrifice, or making of yourself a gift to the beloved. Now we as humans are terrified to truly do this. As much as we love the idea of God loving us this much, and maybe would like to do it ourselves. When push comes to shove, and we're asked to sacrifice that much, like Peter being threatened, or you know Jesus, we deny it. No, I can't do this, sorry, this is too much. Don't know the guy. We run away. Without the grace of God in our lives, it is not possible to give all of yourself. You can't do it. And it's not just an example that Jesus sets for us, and yes, that is true. But through his gift, he is empowering us in his church and in the sacraments to make the same gift. And this is what really sets the great saints out from the rest of us, is they were so conformed to Jesus Christ that they did in fact give everything, everything. Think of St. Stephen, the first martyr. What were his final words? Father, into your hands, I commend my spirit as he was being martyred. Perfect imitation of Jesus Christ. It's possible. It's possible for each one of us. But it takes an intimate relationship with our Lord, because only love incarnate can teach you how to love in this world. How is it, though, that we can find even intellectually the courage to really empty ourselves in love for someone else? Spouse, children, neighbor, God, whomever. Well, we must look to the Trinity itself in order to understand the nature of love. Since God is love, then he has to be self-empting. Well, how does that work in the Trinity? Theologians teach us that the Father eternally gives himself to his son, pours himself out to his son, empties himself, and says, my son, I'm yours. All that I have is yours. And the son receiving that gift eternally empties himself out to the Father. Father, all I have is yours. Take me. And that self-gift is the Holy Spirit, that mutual giving of self. And that's how we get the three persons of the Trinity. That's what love is. And so even though it's fearful at times when you're giving of yourself and seeming not to get anything back, ideally, as we see in God, if I truly loved you as I was meant to, I would be empty of me. But I would be full of you because you would love me back. You would empty yourselves into me. I would always empty myself into you. You would always empty yourself into me in love. And both of us forever would be full of each other. It's a beautiful thing to consider. But in sin and in this world, that's not what happens, is it? We try to love and we don't get loved back. And so we try to empty ourselves. And since we're not being loved in return, we're just empty. We're just dying on our crosses. But that's how we imitate Jesus. That we love even when we are not loved in return. And in the end, when everything of us has been poured out, and there's nothing left to give except our spirit, we make the words of our Lord our own. Father, into your hands I commend my spirit, in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.


Yeah, hi. I'm Alex. Last year I've been doing a fellowship with Mozilla, but I'm a neuroscientist. That's my background And I just wanted to talk a bit today about What's next after juice in a books the spoiler is that it's more juice in a books? But first I just just kind of give you an idea of the the motivation of why I've started working on this stuff Is we're gonna do a little create our own adventure So I don't have anyone did those books as a kid where you get to choose the end of your story You get to use the path or on Netflix that was banned us naturally where you could do that as a show And we're gonna do one quickly now, and then I promise you it's relevant So it's a sunny day in Portland and you just have time and you're walking to give a presentation You're super excited about but the thing you're walking on is tiled So I don't know about you, but I sometimes just try and step in the center of the tiles rather than on the edges Maybe that's just me But so we're gonna have a vote do we think we should just ignore the tiles and walk maybe like a normal person? Or should we adjust our stride so that we don't step on the edges? So who thinks we should walk normally a and be who thinks this is just I'm stoked.  So we've got two choices now We can either have a look in the shot around the corner But it's a second-hand shop and they might not have our size or we can sprint all the way back home We should be able to make it there and back in time for the talk So who thinks a we should go to the shop on the corner And be who thinks we should run back home What do we think Let's I think I think we're gonna go with a So we walk pick pick up the pace and walk quickly to hats and cats Which is your favorite closure luckily, it's open and you have a quick look around and they have the perfect shirt And it's gonna go ace with your jacket And so that's the story I I could tell you that that was the most boring ending you could have possibly chosen You could have either adopted a cat you could have met Michelle Obama But unfortunately we've got a nice shirt anyway And so what what what I feel how I feel Let's skip Is that doing data analysis is often a bit more like this choose your own adventure thing than writing an essay But the way we present it is is if it's just a nice story and sometimes that's good It's nice to have a good strong narrative to be able to explain what you're doing to people But sometimes we want to share the whole process. We want to share these forks these decisions we've made And we want to be able to do that while we're developing We want to be able to take different directions and and be able to see from a high level what we're doing so what I'm gonna do is Describe a few pain points. I guess that we've observed from watching people use notebooks and have a look at some potential new concepts for interfaces that build off the Jupyter notebook stack and But allow us to have a little bit more complexity in these flows So the first set of observations I guess if anyone says they've worked with just notebooks and they don't have a folder that looks like this then I absolutely don't believe you The second one is people copy and pasting cells because you might want to make a little change to one cell But then you want to compare how the output of the first one looks to the second one and then you scroll up and down We're seeing bunch of people going through entire cells and commenting out each line Just because they're not sure whether they're gonna delete that or not And these kind of I'm not sure if I'll need it later things Tend to be the use case that people will say, okay, you should be using version control and that's great But often these small changes are not atomic things that you might want to commit as a single thing in version control And also you want to be really explicitly comparing what you had before to what change you had so We design an interface that kind of embraces this copy one copy two Thing but it doesn't in a little bit more of a structured manner. So Kind of on the on the basics. This is kind of like a normal notebook. Maybe with some cell templating The only thing to notice that's slightly different is that we Enforce that people have some text to describe what each cell is a tax-treat cell And then we can play it and the only other the other thing is that we pin the outputs to the bottom here Sorry, this is a bit unclear on the screen, but I think I think you'll get the idea So the key thing here is that we can then make a fork of this notebook But have it appear visually and so that we can see exactly what changes we're gonna make So what we've done there is just made a fork from that first cell and then we're gonna make a change in that cell And we can immediately see what the change in that cell there which is highlighted has had what impact that's has had on the output and we can do the same thing again, we could make another fork from that first cell and Maybe use a different style and we can compare them all we can collapse different things to see Compare back to the first one Don't know who's using this so slowly And we can also fork off any other cell as well not just the first one So maybe we want to change the data instead To make a fork here and then if we decided that this in fact this last one is exactly what we want We can make it or we can collapse the other ones and make this one the main branch in the end So this is concept number one So in terms of the implementation, this is just a collection of notebooks There's everything else is just UI on the top and but we can discuss that more in a bit if you want So the second set of observations is as hidden state bugs. So this is when people make a change to a variable in a notebook somewhere and or in any code And you don't realize that you've changed it somewhere else And you might be executing cells out of order and then you end up with a bug because of that We also see people have lots of shared cells between notebooks or they're scrolling up and down And that's because you want to explore multiple different avenues for analyzing one data set But those different avenues might share a lot of code But you don't necessarily want them to share all the state So we're trying to design an interface that allows us to like explicitly share some some stuff But not share the state between different parts So this is one example of what it might look like I can't pause it And So maybe we've we've loaded some data in here and then we're going to plot it down there because that's the first thing you do When you should load data is have a look at it But there's no reason that when I normalize this time series here There's absolutely no reason that any change in state here should be affecting anything I do here because they're not part of the same. They're not part of the same flow and so Here we filter the data and we plot it again and We can do some more things we can compare the signals Down here. I'm up here. We compute the energy of the signals, but again, there's no reason that this Anything that happens here should be affecting this plot. I made at the beginning So this idea that we can separate the state out in the user interface And also one of the nice things about having forcing people to have the text above each cell and not as a separate cell Is that we can do things like this we can collapse the whole thing and see That's exactly the right reaction And yeah, see the the whole flow there So the implementation of something like this there are a few different ways it That we're exploring that it could work. The first is that each Separate flow will have a different kernel and that's the easiest to do but causes some Certainly not the most performant way of doing it One of the ways is in object oriented languages or we can just serialize all of the objects that are in a particular cell And then we can do lookups when I whenever you execute each cell, which means you only have to execute your cell once Or we can do something that will work with all languages Which is capture the whole state of the process in memory at that time and serialize that to disk How much time Okay We'll just go through this last one So if any of you were in talk before we know that one of the I guess one of the things a lot of scientists struggle with is Having really complex processing pipelines and then having to change them later. So One of the things I've seen in almost every single lab I've been into is that people it's really difficult to onboard a new person to the lab with the whole pipeline that they have And you have a lot of debugging or reporting stages embedded in with the actual pipeline and it's really Difficult to just get an idea of what's going on without spending a lot of time diving heavily into some complex code so One of the things we've been working on is Whether we can use whether we can have a common graphical interface for a whole bunch of different pipelining languages. So Here we might Generate a shell script to the beginning you can set it up on the right and Then we can basically do anything with this So this is a bit like how to draw an owl and then we just press the button and everything comes up whoop There you go But the cool thing about this model is that the idea is that we're just building an interface So like Jupyter notebooks, we're not building the kernels. We're just building an interface And then we can have separate pipelining kernels in the background. So a pipelining kernel could just be Could just be something like make so Or it could be a common workflow language or it could be Apache Kafka It could be any of these amazing tools that people have already built But that are really hard to get a handle on of like exactly where the data is moving in those different tools Yeah, and that's it from me. Thanks All right, thank you Okay, we have about 10 minutes for questions so lots of question time Curious if you thought about how this this interesting work in the interface and work and stuff That's particularly for the the forking of notebooks might play with How that might play out in a different notebook environment Such as observable notebooks which are this reactive where you don't have the state problem like with the ordering of Evaluation problem and how that might Yeah, so I guess if anything that's like almost better to have it in that in in that environment so when I Started working on this I was kind of looking at observable Jupyter And I died as the kind of three data science in the browser things and All the work that we're gonna do is gonna be just UI so it could be put anywhere and so that would be the dream starting off with Jupiter just because it's got the most users and That's the way I think have the biggest impact But yeah having where something where you don't run the code Where where it's reactive like observable is like the dream use case for something like this But not everyone likes to do everything in JavaScript So Yeah, so at the moment I have a gear have repository called graphical notebooks the three different things at the moment have the the name I Hard to remember the name of the first one the first one is up for grabs if anyone wants to name it The second one is Jupiter canvas and the third one is Jupiter flow. I am currently writing a job post for a developer to prototype two of them and Yeah, so within the next few months will have prototypes and they'll be definitely links to it on the graphical notebooks It's really important station as you talk about this work are you finding that there's an awareness and appreciation for this distinction Can you can you clarify exactly the kind of Yeah And that's Yeah Yeah, so I think that's It's like there's a really interesting conflict because I think as humans we find it much easier to understand something as a story And so it makes sense to present things in that way to people But you're right. It isn't the process that actually underlies it I think there's kind of two sides with a like hypothesis driven stuff So you could still have hypothesis like very strong hypotheses But there would still be branches and you want to do check this and this and this there's very rarely like just one Plot that's gonna tell you the answer to something So I think I think yeah, it's always difficult to know How much of the complexity you should share or how much we should just be telling people This stuff nearly always starts out crazy and then you have to trim it down I Visualization system I Yeah, so I mean definitely everything that we're going for here is piggybacking off the notebook structure and So I was speaking to the team last week and I think like one of the biggest things that they've done with notebooks is have a Data format that's been around for now five years that's barely changed and it's really well structured And you can do basically anything with that And what people have done so far is just had cells in order But what we're now trying to do is so how can we organize this exactly the same data format but in different ways To fit different models of data exploration It's really useful. I wonder I have you Have you worried that by adding this new tool that could help you could actually inadvertently make things work Yeah, for sure The the kind of idea is that instead of we probably end up having exactly the same mess But a slightly more structured mess and for me, that's better But what certainly what we're planning on doing is as soon as we've got a like a reasonable prototype going is Giving this to a whole bunch of people and seeing what happens And we're totally happy to pivot if that if that is exactly what happens I see that you have like say four different notebooks that might be referring to like this choose your own adventure What are you doing under the hood that links them all together or is there like a schema that you're following that keeps it Yeah, so So that in the forking one or in the graphing in the graph one Is Okay, so the forking one The link is is just that they would probably literally just be notebooks in a folder with a naming schema So in terms of the deafing it would just we just do deafing using ambideum And so there's no explicit link that's not just enforced by the interface For the graphing one where we have we have splits and things like that It would it's all still fitting in within the notebook schema and just going to be metadata Where each cell will point to its next cell and it doesn't just go to the next cell automatically And so the idea is to do as little as possible so that all of this can still be used in a regular notebook browser So where do we go in Portland to meet Michelle? No, you have to turn up early for your talk and then she ends up being there waiting for you We have to have one more. I just more have a comment on why I like this I manage like teams of undergrads and I think a lot of things at vids at the Frickin studio designs We talk about managing teams and one thing that keeps coming up is the like sanity checks And those sanity checks when you're working alone are very invisible Um, but when I get their notebooks, I don't know what sanity checks they do So I redundantly do the sanity checks myself, which is a lot of times just like change the variable of this level So I love that that would be transparent. So one feature I would love for you to add Is a way to like mark those branches would be like reviewers check the sanity check or have that like sanity check like tag or some sort of tagging system for the branches That's the only sort of comment that's allowed in the talk Okay, that's a good one You might have answered this and I didn't quite understand what you're saying, but you're talking about observable Well, it's like we like we know like the end of the notebooks like the non linear flow of managing state And these things is like a challenge already and this seems to just exponentiate that problem, I'm just curious if like If there's other things you can add to this to stop that Like so to help the novice user know that they're actually manipulating their state in a non linear fashion Yeah, so there's the there's the out of order bit which um, I think so one of the one of the I guess one of the solutions I pointed out for having these these branches Is caching individual cells. So when we have something like this, this is actually a directed graph And so if we're once we caching what Each cell does let's say let's we know how we do that. We've got some cool ideas about how to do that um, actually if we Know that we're changing something here and none of this has changed we can rerun that without any penalty So we can actually have this like observable like reactive environment, but still using Jupiter Still using jupiter and python So that's that will be one of the cool Directions to go is like treat the whole thing as a directed graph and cache the state of each cell Or each flow each black combination of cells It would still be this it would just be a different kernel it would be that's Yeah, and yeah, yeah So So, um depends so they're two different so that if you're doing the the So if you would do the hash of each cell in terms of Oops disk space is the least sustainable So you're using the most space when you serialize the state of each cell In terms of computationally It's the most efficient because you never rerun anything that you don't need to rerun If you were to do multiple kernels, it's the opposite You don't save anything to disk it's more disk efficient But you have four kernels running at the same time, which if you're running a big jupiter finder have instances It is a big issue.  Um, we're trying to look at which one works best


Fascinating one for the brand is to be in the country for the last 20 years. To really break it down into very simple parts, we actually split that into three parts. The first phase was about building the brand. The second thing was about growing it, and then it's about acceleration. When we got into the country 20 years back, apart from a few people who knew about what McDonald's is and what it stands for, etc. The initial euphoria was done of miles long of queues to get inside and access that and all that. It clearly required the next level to move forward. That's when we realized that the barrier I treated to trial for McDonald's was... People felt that anything that's behind the glass and that's air-conditioned would be perceived to be an expensive place. That was the barrier that we needed to break. We actually didn't hit that insight. Even till date, when you talk to people who are the most recalled advertising of McDonald's, people very fondly speak about the stage fright. That promotion really really resonated very well with the consumers. It opened the gates to a whole lot of people who had that barrier to walking in the McDonald's. Once we were done with that, as we started getting into the growth phase of it, we needed to start appealing with more localization of flavor. Finally, if you have to explore any category in a country like India, it has to be based on value. That's when In came in, the McDonald's, which got people running in through the doors of McDonald's. It pretty much founded the category of burgers in the country. Post that, now we are actually in a very exciting phase of our journey. We are now pushing ourselves into adding more, apart from adding more stores, we are adding more conveniences to the brand. We are adding coffee, we are adding drive-throughs, we are adding highway stores. Just making ourselves more and more ubiquitous and ensuring that people can access us from any conceivable angle that you may want to access McDonald's. It's not just only about investment, of course investment is important, for which we have an outlet and that will be in the range of about 750 crores where we aspire to go from the current 245 restaurants to about 500 other restaurants. Like I was mentioning, what's important for us is that we are offering conveniences, value and menu to the people we serve. What I mean by that is we want to be relevant across day parts. We are the only player right now who is the only brand that is operating in a space like breakfast. Breakfast is a unique dimension that we want to see grow more than where we are actually. Coffee as a culture is picking up and therefore the proliferation in McAfees. In a city like Mumbai, we have about 45 McAfees and overall we are at about 90 or McAfees. Delivery as a platform is really getting natural tailwind in the candidate and we are expanding in that space. There is a whole lot of other things like drive-throughs and other conveniences which will get people to access us more often.
