In 1916, the same year that Einstein published his general relativity paper, Carl Schwarzschild published his exact solution for space around a large, non-rotating mass. His metric is now called Schwarzschild metric, and it works quite well for slowly rotating masses like the Earth and the Sun and the planets in our solar system. We'll use this metric for the first three tests. Let's take a look at what our space-time curvature looks like with this metric. If we draw the circumference of the Earth's orbit, we get a length that is 2 pi times our distance from the Sun. If we existed in flat Euclidean space, we would calculate the circumference of an orbit one kilometer closer to the Sun and see that the distance between the orbits is one kilometer. But because of our positive curvature, if we were to measure the circumference with a radius that is one kilometer shorter than the first, we'd find that it is less than 2 pi times the shorter radius, which means that the distance between the circumferences would be greater than the one kilometer difference in the radii, but only a little. We can repeat this process all the way to the surface of the Sun. With each successive radius, the difference between the orbits would increasingly diverge from the Euclidean numbers. If we were to telescope this picture, you'd see the standard diagrams that are used to help explain general relativity, but diagrams like this are misleading in two ways. First, they represent an external curvature into another dimension, when in fact we are talking about intrinsic curvature. There is no evidence for the existence of a fourth spatial dimension. Second, it looks like you need a downward force on the object to get it to drop into the hole. That would be gravity, but that's what the lines were supposed to represent. So we'll avoid using this technique. For over a half a century before Einstein's time, it was known that there was something odd about the orbit of Mercury. The elliptical path it carves around the Sun shifts with each orbit, leaving its perihelion or closest point to the Sun 56 arc seconds forward on each pass. Newtonian equations accounted for all but around a half an arc second per year. And of course, they couldn't take into consideration the effects of curved space because the idea that space wasn't flat hadn't been considered yet. With Schwarzschild's metric, Einstein came up with the exact number to cover the mysterious half an arc second. He had passed the first test of his new theory.


Objective reasoning means reasoning according to a set of logical and objective standards, while subjective thinking refers to reasoning without objective standards. Objective reasoning means reasoning that is independent of the specific subjective context, not influenced by personal characteristics, feelings or opinions of the subject. An idea can be said to be objective when it's not conditioned by the subject stating it, when it expresses a reality without subjectivity modifying it. Objective thinking implies an impartial and balanced inquiry. In reasoning one has to define what is of value and relevance in so doing assign weight to the different factors involved. This assigning of importance to the different factors involved then defines much of the context to the following process of reasoning and its outcomes. When it is done subjectively and over emphasis is placed on some factors whilst others are diminished depending on the character of the subject doing the reasoning. Objective reasoning implies an impartial balanced inquiry that applies relevant weight to the different factors involved in the process. This objective view of the world does not come naturally to human beings, in fact quite the contrary. The biological evolutionary context to our condition originates in a very subjective perspective, one which leads to an imbalance in our worldview. Subjective thinking in the form of egocentric thinking for example comes natural to us as humans. We do not have to train people to believe what they want to believe. What one wants to believe is what one will naturally believe. In contrast people need to be trained or train themselves if they want to believe something other than this. Whereas the subjective thinking of altruism and egoism that we previously talked about leads to an imbalanced emphasis on either the individual or on others. Objective thinking strives to overcome this in order to achieve a balanced judgment. Objective thinking represents the capacity to experience phenomena as in some way independent from our subjective condition, to be able to regard other entities as existing in and for themselves independent of our own will. As this is not an innate feature of human cognition it involves having to develop a framework based upon some objective logic that can define the value of things independent from their significance and value in relation to one's own agenda and desires. It is only in being able to do this that one can ascribe the appropriate significance to things and thus make a balanced inquiry that is the central part of critical thinking. Objective thinking is only really achieved by creating standards because the results of one's thinking cannot be any better than the quality of the process by which conclusions were reached. With the use of standards one can develop objective thinking the placing of an objective value on phenomena. The psychological differentiation of the individual during development is an important part of achieving balanced objective reasoning. Differentiation during the individual's development means the separation of different spheres in particular the separation of self from others and other things so as not to be as psychologically and emotionally attached to them which results in one placing an over evaluation on them. This distinction between subjective and objective thinking can be understood as a relationship between a system and its environment. When something is subjective it is a point of view it is not based upon some logic within the environment. When thinking is objective it is true regardless of points of view as it is based upon the logical set of relations within the environment. If one's ultimate aim is not to adapt and conform one's reasoning to some larger logic within the environment then the reasoning will inevitably be flawed. Objective reasoning is about following standards that will enable us to develop knowledge that reflects the logic of our environment. It is not so important if one makes a mistake during reasoning. What is important is that we have the framework in place that makes reasoning responsive to some broader environmental context so that we can identify when our reasoning is misaligned. What is important is that our conceptual system can adapt and change in response to the logic of some broader context. The logic of one's thinking must conform to the logic of the environment for it to be successful and the objective standards of reasoning create the framework for conforming our reasoning to the logic within our broader environments. A central question in the distinction between objective and subjective thinking is then whether the individual adapts reality to their thinking or do they accommodate and adapt their thinking to reality. Critical thinking and science aims to create standards so that we accommodate our thinking to the logic of the world around us and not the other way around because this is the only effective solution in the long term. Trying to shape reality to fit into a misconstructed conception of it will only last for a certain period of time as the conceptual system at some stage will be forced to deal with the reality of its environment. Subjective reasoning leads the individual to conclusions that are in some way desirable to that subject. The world though does not always turn out to be how people would like it to be. In fact it has no regard whatsoever for how people would like it to be and thus often turns out to be something very different. To accept something that is an undesirable logic requires discipline and living by the standards of reasoning. All thinking by its nature is subjective but by adhering to standards we try to achieve greater objectivity in our thinking. Our minds will tend to take a path of least resistance unless we make a specific high-energy effort to step out of these processes and think in a more clear and logical manner. Cognitive biases of subjective thinking lead us into invalid or fallacious thinking rather than into formal logical ways of thinking. These biases are numerous, pervasive and can have a very powerful influence on how we think and it requires exerting a concerted effort to remove them in the form of applying cognitive standards to our thinking. If one wants to be the best high jumper or the fastest runner one has to be disciplined in the use and training of one's body in order to gain a certain height or speed advantage. The higher one wants to jump or the faster one wants to run the more disciplined one will have to be in the training of one's body and the same is true for thinking. There is the same standards but this time it's not jumping higher or running faster it's about being able to use higher levels of abstraction effectively and according to an objective set of rules. One can only do this by structuring the most basic elementary concepts. Once one has these basic building blocks it is then possible to move up to building more complex and abstract patterns out of these. However one cannot move up to higher level reasoning until the basic concepts are being formed. If one tries to do this the reasoning will be flawed just like building a house out of weak building blocks that will fall apart if we build too high. In order to make the basic building block solid one has to have discipline in their construction so that they are well structured and balanced. What this means in more practical terms is that one has to define things properly until a concept has been properly defined it is not possible to use it properly in the building of higher level more abstract constructs. Thus we need to employ discipline in our reasoning in order to define things properly. The better we can define things the more solid our reasoning will be and we'll be able to build higher more abstract conceptual systems which in turn means that we can reason effectively about more complex systems. When we properly define things we try to get at their most elementary features that define them as distinct from other entities. Every word in the dictionary is distinct in some way or else it would not exist. It may be very similar to others but never exactly the same in all contexts. If one does not use objective standards in reasoning and define things properly then it will not be possible to see what is the same and what is different unless we'll form false categories that will not correspond to those within the environment creating tension and conflict. And we'll pick this theme up again of subjective and objective reasoning in the next module as we talk about motivated reasoning.

I actually have the winners for the corporate competition. And they are Precision Bernie's School of Dance and DAX. I think it's actually DAX Trucking, I hope. I don't know if any of them are here, but thank you very much for joining us. The winners will receive their awards at a later date. And again, thank you very much. And now the winners for the non-profit Wrangler Jeep which put on an awesome show, by the way. You guys rock. VW Club and Making Spirits Bright. Thank you very much. And now here's the best part that you all have been waiting for. Now please, help me give a warm welcome to Mike I mean, wow. Mayor Mike Vanersteen as he will say a few words and we will commence with the lighting ceremony. Thank you very much. Well, good evening everybody. Thanks for coming out for the 26th annual J.C. Holiday Parade. Let's give Kyle and his committee a great hand. They did a super job. Well, now we've got a very important thing to do and that's light up our display here at the Meade Library Plaza for the Christmas season. I've got a young man in the crowd. Eli, will you please come down here and give me a hand? Eli was a little bit nervous so he's bringing his assistant along to help out with this but, you know, this is something that we've been doing for several years and it just keeps on getting bigger and better every year. So I want to thank all of you for sticking around after the parade to see this lighting ceremony. Eli. Okay, now we're going to need a little bit of assistance. We have to do a countdown. We're going to start with the number 15 and count down and then Eli is going to pull the plug and we're going to light up the trees. So 15 14 13


Next speaker is Martin Naelman. I was just chatting to Martin a bit about himself and he sort of says that his job is just to come up with and implement crazy ideas. So that sounds quite cool and that he likes doing scary live demos. So hopefully this will be a good treat. Martin contributes to Meet Your JS, he also contributes to Firefox OS and is one of the team behind Numbers, which is sort of in the banking javascript world. Last night he built his own slide deck software because he realised that if he's going to talk on web components he should really be using some slide deck software that's built in web components. So we were checking earlier that was going to work and hopefully fingers crossed it will. So a big warm welcome to Martin Naelman. Hi, thank you. All right. Hi everybody. Thanks for having me here in Barcelona. It's really, really nice to be here. It's really, really cool to see all these great people here doing great stuff and especially the talks yesterday rocked it, today rocked it and I hope I kind of give something nice as well. By the way, Barcelona is really, really nice if you have not been here before or if you're not from here, just walk around the city. This is actually a picture I took while being on one of these touristy buses. So what I do is, as I got introduced as well, I work for Numbers, which is the product of Central Way. I'm the tech ambassador. So I'm talking to guys outside of the company, developers and as well as engineers inside our company. And I work with a ton of different technologies. There's Go, there's Ruby, there's Javascript, there's Java as well. We're doing banking, right? So we have to have some sort of Java contact, I guess. And I'm from Zurich and some people yesterday and even someone on this speaker's dinner said like, oh, Zurich is pretty boring, isn't it? And I'd just like to slightly sidestap here and say, no, actually it's not as boring as you may think. So there's a couple of days ago actually what they did as every year on the end of April to sort of say goodbye to winter, which looking at the climate data from Switzerland is very optimistic to do in April. They basically built this huge snowman full of explosives and set it on fire. So obviously that thing blows up at some point. And the fun thing is why are we doing this?  And sort of to say goodbye winter, hi summer. And the legend says that the time it takes from setting it on fire, the snowman which is called Burke actually. So the time it takes from setting it on fire to it actually blowing up will tell you if the summer is going to get warm. And Switzerland wouldn't be Switzerland if we wouldn't actually analyse the data. So here you see, you can see on the y axis, on the vertical axis, you see the temperature, the average temperature, and on the x axis you see the time it took to actually blow up and you don't really see a correlation here. Someone on Twitter actually then took this picture and just threw a random line and went like, yeah, that's exactly how it goes. But still it's fun, right? I mean, who else is blowing up a snowman just for the fun of it? Right, anyway, so actually I'm here to talk about something completely different. So let's talk about it. Web components. So who of you ever has heard of web components before? And keep your hands up if you have used them. It's still pretty good. So to understand what web components are for, you have to understand sort of how the web came to be and how it became so successful. So now while we are trying or we developers are tending to go all in our wonderful world of programming and try to express everything as programs, that's not what many other people do. So originally the web came about to be sharing your research results so you needed something that makes documents. And it turned out that actually it was pretty easy to build stuff. Like this little girl built awesome stuff with awesome building blocks and so HTML sort of came to be the awesome building block. At some point you separated out the presentation from just the content and then that became CSS and then you had some interactivity with JavaScript. So the problem is that that wasn't really meant to be any sort of really super bonus interactive thing. Though we have seen today that you can build awesome interactive applications but applications are very different from being documents. So you came from these very, very simple forms, very, very simple building blocks to super complicated, sophisticated UIs for applications. And not just the UIs, also just applications were built with this, right? We could build a banking application for example or you could build a game or whatever with these building blocks today. But that became more complicated because we needed to sort of keep backwards compatibility with what is out there and the standardisation so that you do not end up in the situation like in 1999 or 2000 with IE. The standardisation needs to be well thought out and actually well executed as well which just takes some time. So the standard bodies couldn't really keep up with this. Unluckily. And that ended up with stuff like that. So this is a filterable list of Chuck Norris jokes and you could then go for I want a dad or I want something where he kills something, alright. So the problem with this is, so yes, we use the very, very simple basic building blocks to build such a thing. The bad thing about this is that we are sort of mixing it in into the rest of the application so it is not really encapsulated. It makes it really hard to compose it. This thing is horrific to maintain. Imagine that something else has for some reason something with an ID of filter term and then this whole thing blows apart which is easy to spot in such a simple case. It is really, really hard to actually figure out what's going on if you have a really sophisticated application that is composed of lots of modules. And that's sort of the problem that many, many libraries and frameworks try to address. There's, for example, Blade Runner that we heard about which tries to do this thing with blades and components and then there's Angular Directives and a lot of others try to sort of do this encapsulation as well. So that is where the, hello? That is where you ask yourself when you build something like that, how do I move on? Now, you could just leave it like that or package it up as a jQuery plug-in and just hope that it never, ever blows up anywhere and you get blamed for it which is not really the best attitude to this sort of stuff because it's your code and you're sort of responsible for it as well. You can try to directly go into the browsers and sort of do the native implementation and sort of hide it away from your user by encapsulating it by making it an actual component or an actual part of the browser. But then again, there's tons of browsers and there's pretty much more fragmentation to come maybe with mobile devices. So that's a hard thing to do as well. And maybe you're not that much into C++ or Objective C for anything else. So not really a way to go. So that leaves you with actually making sure that you're talking to the standards bodies and making sure that it becomes a standard. And that is a very idealistic goal nonetheless. Standards bodies have to take into account what is out there and it's a democratic thing that's going on and so there's lots of hard discussions and lots of reasons not to do something though it is awesome to do and it just takes a really, really long time. I want to give a shout out to the W3C guys. They're doing a really, really good job at that and they're really, really working hard on this stuff and I don't want to be in this discussion and I actually as a web developer I have to move on, right? So I built this component and then I'm like, yes and now I want to at some point reuse this thing or actually give it out to the world so others can use it as well. I don't want to spend two hours a day in some sort of IRC channel where I get shouted at on having seen something and that's where web components sort of come into play. So the idea is instead of having us muddle through with all these technologies on very, very shaky grounds it is creating a set of standards that is there to just give us a proper method of encapsulation and reuse and composability of all the things that we just created and they should to the user and that goes back into this building blocks idea of HTML to the user it should just feel like it was part of HTML forever. I don't want to do any jQuery stuff where I have to go like oh yeah and then you need that library and that dependency over here or you just use Bower to install all these magical dependencies that are over there and then you have to have this CSS and then you need the theme to make it pretty or this and that. It's really complicated for a user who's not really into programming. Imagine a designer just going like I just want to demo to my boss some concept and I just want to drag a component somewhere or write a component, declare a component somewhere and then just have it work. So this is where these standards come in. So web components whenever someone says web components think of these four things there's the fifth one which is not really specced out yet which is decorators but ignore it for the moment practically these four cover your basis. So and I'm going to go into details with some examples for each of these four and you're going to see how they play together really really well to build composable things which also takes some pressure off the standards bodies because then we can just pretend to actually have it sort of in the language already or in our toolbox and then they can go actually that thing 95% of the people use and that thing is a low hanging fruit so let's just standardize this thing and actually deliver it in a proper way. So what you do is you use the building blocks you have HTML, CSS and JavaScript to build new elements and new components that you can then just plug together and have it working. Whatever your component is depends on you it could start with a filterable list like I did it could go on with a photo booth app that you just plug in into a complex application like I don't know Spotify or Facebook where everything could be a component like imagine Spotify has the playlist and that's a component that is actually built into another component that is the thing that you see and then inside there there's more components. So this is how the slide deck is done by the way. This is one huge component that's a slide deck that takes care of moving slides back and forth and styling slides generally and then each slide is one component that takes care of displaying itself properly and then you see these live demos are another component that allow me to load a file display it on the left-hand side and actually run it on the right-hand side and updating it and all this kind of stuff. So let's start with the template element. That one has been around pretty long and is actually pretty well supported in browsers nowadays except for Internet Explorer unfortunately but you kind of expect that today. By the way, I'm trying to sort of balance future in today's with the counters so at the end I'm going to ask how am I doing and I'm going to try to balance it out again. Anyway, so yeah, we have this wonderful template element and what is up here is basically a piece of document that is not active yet. It is inert. It just sits there in a way to be called or copied or actually called into action. So this script in there does not get executed unless I actually put it somewhere, somehow. And then I have this button and I can click on it and then it will ask me for a headline. Hello, FutureJS. Today is a wonderful... Whoops. Day. Day should never pass. Away. Very poetic. And here we have our wonderful headline. Now, what does this give me? Well, it allows me to actually prepare my template somewhere and somehow I could load this asynchronously from a script or something instead of actually having it there. So it sort of makes templating a little easier. When you actually want to insert it, it's pretty easy. You just query it, use the content of it and then just clone it somewhere or move it somewhere, I could have moved it as well. And that's about it. It's very simple actually. So that is that. But then I have this problem that it sort of leaks. So what I mean with that is let's modify this a little bit. You're going to see me modifying demos today quite a lot because it's sort of a life coding thing and I wonder if I can... Can I move these? Do I get shouted at? I hear no shouting, that is great. Okay, that's a German method. In Switzerland, I would never ever do that because I got probably, I don't know, jail for it or something. Swiss people are super defensive but really, really nice folks. You should visit Switzerland. Anyway. So what I could do is I could do an order that does document.crayselector or... So I get all the headlines that are in the document and I count them and I tell me if it happens. And I say, today is so nice. And then it says one, and obviously if I do this a second time, future.js, it's two words, so future counts. And then it's two. So it still leaks. But I imagine this not just having a tag, this having an ID or a class selector or anything or style sheet attached. That would mean that I now actually leaked something that should not be outside of my little world into the document using it. And that's bad. That was fun. And that is where the shadow DOM comes in. So it's sort of the same code. It has a little adjustment, but first of all I'm too lazy to type that stuff in so I have a test for headlines thing that says fountain zero headlines. Woo! And I have this button at again and this time what I do is I create a new div. Just a div element. No fuss about this one. And then I create a shadow root on this div. Now what does that mean? Well, who of you has actually seen how shadow DOM works already? In that case I'm going to explain it. Great for those who actually have. Awesome. So what it does is it says basically I cut it out here and whatever, I create a new node in the DOM but it's disconnected. So I put stuff below this node. I add child, it's a subtree as well as the rest of the DOM is the tree. But the position in the tree, so from the top perspective if I'm the browser I sort of go in but if I'm the application that lives somewhere here in the tree I could query the tree and I would go shadow root and then I just go on somewhere else. I will never ever go into the shadow root. I can, I shouldn't. So that's what happens here. So I create a new node in this DOM tree and it is a shadow root and then I add my content from the template into this shadow root and then I append the container just as I would anyways onto the document. So that works still pretty well. Is this the future of live coding? Today we'll find out. Okay, now I click on this test for headlines and it still says zero headlines. So it did not leak but it is there, right? So there is a headline but it says like no, is there something broken in my code? Let's just try that. I could say I'm now appending directly to the container so I basically make the step useless but it doesn't matter. And I click on the test for headlines and now it found the headline. So this thing sort of does what it is supposed to do, right? And it even works on IDs as well.  By the way, ola is basically 80% of my Spanish knowledge so I try to use that as much as possible so I get the best out of it. Again, Swiss thing, I guess, get the best for your money. So now it found this hotline and if I now go back into the shadow DOM thing, see, es bueno. And that is 100% of my Spanish and I click on this and it goes zero headlines. Isolation! Wonderful, so that I keep doing this. So that is pretty good. So now we have the shadow DOM but it's still a little quirky to use because we have to deal with this still with the JavaScript bit and we can still make mistakes and it can still be really, really nasty and it's not really declarative and it does not really solve the problem of people just wanting to drop elements somewhere like they would be in native HTML. In native HTML you don't have to do anything like document.createElement. You can just put the tag in where you want it and you're done. We want that as well for our wonderful new components. What I do here is I introduce the custom element which is the third of the four standards and as well as the shadow DOM the shadow DOM just landed in Firefox. I think it's in stable now. I'm not sure about that but it's prefix probably and in Chrome beta it is without prefix and I think Chrome did a sort of Hail Mary manoeuvre there. I was like, oh yeah, we'll just write you to let you know that we're actually shipping it without the prefix and everyone was like, whoa, whoa, what? So yeah, it's out there now but it's hidden behind the flag as far as I'm aware so if you want this to run you have to enable some flags and you have to certainly run Chrome it's not possible to do this in other browsers yet but there's poorly filled. And so what was I talking about? Oh yeah, exactly, custom elements.  So what we do is I could be more specific here but I just say I use the prototype of an HTML element so that I have all these funky properties that I need and then I create a new object from that which is my new prototype then it has lifecycle callbacks the created callback happens when the browser loads your element because that can happen asynchronously so that means that it's not already there if you're unlucky. And this tells you all right I'm ready I can actually now process you and make you happen somewhere in the DOM and make you appear and work so get yourself prepared so this is sort of the initialisation on the global level component not for a certain instance of your component and what I do in here is I create the shadow DOM and I put the content in and that's it and then you go on with the attached callback which happens whenever the parser because the parser line goes again through the DOM and goes like that's one of these components and then this callback is actually called when it's inserted into the DOM right before it's inserted into the DOM so what I do here is I then ask for the message that I should display for this particular instance so that I can have the messages per instance rather than again globally and then we just register it and it happens down here so we say our attack should be called x-headline that you see that x pretty often is just random because people are lazy to type stuff but you could say like I could say numbers-account list or something or you could say whatever you feel like. Important is that it has to have a dash because the dash makes it easier for the browser to figure out alright this is actually not a normal component so the dash is mandatory by the spec and that then registers it with the browsers for use in the documents and I give it just the where is it the prototype that I created over here so that it knows how it should behave and I make it available on the document so that I then can just say I'm creating a new x-headline that's the imperative way and then there's a test again so I can do this now and it doesn't work that's great it's probably because I ran this beforehand and the problem is that if it's already registered and it tries to register again then it throws a syntax error so this demo is not really suited for this particular use case but well that's what you get weee an element in HTML how futuristic does that count? now it counts it's two words alright yay there we go and I can obviously now I'm going to run into this problem again that the element is already registered so I rename this into headline yay really bad naming but doesn't matter and I put it in here just to show you that you can do it on declarative as well headline yay slash x line yay not making a syntax error here and then it directly asks me for the message because now it got attached and I say okay right and it's there and I can still then create headlines headlines and I can still do this and it still says there's no headline here so it's still isolated everything working fine so now we finally got ourselves into a position where we sort of have an isolated working declarative and imperative component but if you look at the code it's still like that is not really user friendly imagine that you have to ship that around okay you could put it in a java script file and then they have to figure it out but I don't want that to be semantically more useful or actually more expressive because putting it in a java script doesn't really tell you what's going on and why the java script is there so they got us covered there as well which is html imports and html imports are just nothing else than another type of link that you can set so you have this link type for style sheets and now you have a link type for imports which happens over here so this is the basically the whole thing that I wrote beforehand is adapted now to the filter list with javasnode and jokes and it's put in this separate file so I can now just import it like I would import a style sheet as well it's just more I feel it's more semantically useful or expressive because it's actually a link to something that I want to import to use I would prefer to be called like link relation component but you know you just don't get to vote everywhere so yeah and then you have just the filter list and you have the list items just as you would with a normal list and I could do fancy stuff here as well I could show something when it comes to Shadow DOM which is what you can do in Shadow DOM is you can specify actually no I make it here best naming convention ever I just make this things up so because another question that I often get asked is how do you get this in in a declarative way because right now the content in this one comes from sort of imperative magic and that doesn't have to be I can do this content slash content which takes whatever is in here the future is nice so is the weather today and I I can declare this thing somewhere down here I lose the lines and I can make sure that it doesn't try to ask me something to overwrite this thing so that now the attached prototype sort of is useless I go in here and then it just takes it from here and what is really nice with this is that you can say I want to select a certain thing and this is just a CSS selector so I can say primary and then I want a secondary hatline as well and I can say I'm just a little lazy today and I make this a hatline ja3 and I can now go in here and say I want to have this or make it diff just for funs and giggles class equals primary as when and then I have some sort of other content that doesn't really matter diff ABC and just to show off my awesome Latin skills I can do diff laurum ipsum the laurum said almond or something I modify this thing down here and I run the demo again and as you can see it now selected the thing that I said is primary for the H1 element and the whole rest goes in whatever and the least specified content element ever and I only have a second one so it just goes like oh this one I pick for my H1 element for my hatline and then the rest are just stuck next to it into the H2 element as well and I hope it didn't break the demo to actually go there as well so this all being nice and fine one of the things that I said when I saw the web components stuff for the first time I said that's really cool stuff it's just very sad that we can't use it and it's pretty ironic actually if you think about that this stuff is there to help us get away from the problem of oh yeah this is really cool stuff but we can't use it because my browser doesn't support it yet and we can't use that to fix this problem because the browsers don't support it so it's sort of ironic really but I have pretty good news which is first of all this is really really active it's sort of bleeding edge I woke up this morning just to check if I'm still up to date only to find out that I'm not so yeah that's fun I really really hope that my Macbook wouldn't crash because then maybe Chrome would update automatically when it restart and then all my demos would stop working that would be nice but I was lucky it didn't crash or Chrome didn't update and I'm not sure which one happened really I can't remember so web components are sort of in your browser already so this is what happens when you actually inspect there's a setting in the Google Chrome developer tools that says show shadow DOM and inspect user agent shadow DOM and you click on the video element that's what you see so even the Chrome guys couldn't really be bothered to actually use native stuff they just use the different diffs and an input here and an input there and you can do that with pretty much everything an input is not a native input anymore it is actually a diff that has content editable set to true so the browsers are sort of dock footing on this which is pretty handy and that sort of blew my mind because I mean who of you expected that actually these elements are not native elements but just a random collection of web stuff who did so hands up you're gonna get probably something smack in the head or so I don't know so yeah that sort of blew my mind nonetheless the browser support just isn't quite there yet as you can see the the IE guys are a little behind some of the things that are yellow I would consider not really yellow but dark orange but okay that's very optimistic but that's the compatibility matrix and the good thing is that there's some polyfill from the google guys and some framework to help you not deal with the problems that I just deal with which is these standards are in flux so they are still not finalised, they are evolving they are actually under rapid and active development and so the stuff changes right so that is why I wouldn't use that in production but I don't know why I came up with this idea yesterday evening it's like oh let's completely redo my slides as web components which worked out which is surprising but it's cool so these two frameworks sort of abstract away the nasty bits and pieces wiring that you have to do so that you have a more or less consistent interface to work with stuff and Polymer you could use whatever you feel like you could either use the whole framework which is contrived off a set of it's the polyfilts it is elements that they build for you so you don't have to build them again like a style rating, widget and things you can actually use them with vanilla web components as well so they are interoperable, that is pretty cool and then there's just the platform thing so you could use whatever layer you want and with X tags it's pretty much the same they use the same polyfill they just apparently couldn't be bothered to write another polyfill and why I mean it works and so that supports down to IE 10 or now actually it supports IE 9 plus all the mobile browsers if someone here is doing phone gap applications it also works on phone gap and something Polymer doesn't the polyfill does fine and then if you just want to give it a try I highly recommend the Mozilla App Maker it's really really cool you can drag and drop stuff my now 4 year old nephew played around with it and built it sort of a mobile app that you have a button, you press a button and then it fireworks very impressive and then we have our collection of web components ready to use Brick is more in the direction of X tags so they are trying to get tied in there while custom elements is more bound to work with the Polymer so most of the elements there require some sort of Polymer stuff and that was my talk you find the slides online already as I say you need a Chrome browser that actually supports the flags so you have to set the experimental web platform stuff but the fog will be recorded anyway and then you find me on Twitter I'm Geekonaut with 3 instead of E and yeah thanks for having me here, thanks for listening I hope it was entertaining and useful thanks a lot so I imagine if you would like to have a nice component based architecture you would like to nest components into another component or just shadow DOM and other solutions the presentation was all about that the presentation literally is built as a slide deck component which nests slide components which then may have a demo component you could use each of these components standalone or you could nest them so basically all the demos that you saw were actually nested within three layers of components and it just works you're welcome what's the coolest thing that you've actually seen in production using this stuff using polyfills or whatever what's the best thing you've seen in production using this what's the most exciting thing you've created with it for me personally my laptop has gone the most exciting thing I have done is that or I didn't do it that's what's exciting about my nephew literally I'm not making this stuff up my nephew five years old dragged and dropped stuff with the app maker onto a canvas that was sort of trying to be a phone and then he said look I click this button and it makes fireworks and the coolest thing is you then click on publish and then you install it on your phone who can do this stuff with five years and it's just because it's so freaking easy it is Lego for the web that is cool I think cool awesome thank you very much you're welcome


of Dr. Sherman's office hours. The current date is December 23rd, 2023, and we are taking a quick little shy of an hour to kick back and t'was the night before Christmas this ish. So I am sitting here with my chat pulled up. I've got the wiki on hand in case we need to research the database. Although the wiki dot has been very unstable the last few days if you've had trouble getting into the scp wiki that would be why there is a the best way to get on the scp wiki right now is to google the scp wiki or any scp and then use that link and if it doesn't work go back to google and try again we don't know what's going wrong with wiki dot because we never know what's going wrong with wiki dot but that's the best we can do a little bit it's a little too quiet little scp lo-fi in the background. David Rodriguez in the chat wants to know if the scp foundation is real and one big rule in the scp community is that we do not keep kayfabe in that scenario kayfabe of course is the wrestling term for pretending things are real even though everyone knows it's an act so the scp foundation is not real it's important to do that because that's why we had those crazy kids back in the aughts that stabbed their friend because slender man told them to we don't want that to happen again so we do not pretend to be real we're a great community you go to the ren fair you stay in character you keep kayfabe but you don't pretend the ren fair is real outside of the ren fair that's not how it works so yes you want to make sure that you uh the foundation is just a creative writing community no wink detected 232 concurrent viewers right off the bat good job team although the likes are looking a little shy down at only 32 my my my catch those likes up to the viewers my friends that's what the site 42 staff is good at adam thank you for your don't know to the site 42 coffers make sure to grab yourself a cup of coffee on your way past the site 42 commissary turn this a little bit this way there we go shake shake shake shake is ania forger considered an scp so the child is psychic so technically speaking it would be considered an anomaly now remember the difference between an anomaly and an scp is whether it's classified on the scp database so on you forger is anomalous but not an scp because she does not exist in the scp universe help site 19 is being raided well those guys they have the best on site security staff of any site they're gonna be fine trust me the little court guns we have over here at site 42 ain't gonna help them out that much when will the tree scream oh how i would love to know and specifically to be the one who makes it so can i hug scp 999 well that depends day one is it your turn to hug scp 999 did you submit your permission slip did you put so in triplicate did you make sure hr approved your uh request because if so then probably within six to eight weeks it will be your turn you're on your deathbed and that tree screams and says no one will believe you what do you do well wane glensky i gotta admit it's a personal satisfaction thing for me in the tree so it doesn't matter if uh anyone else knew about it only matters that i knew about it rancy gaming youtube thank you for your don't know make sure to grab a crawler on your way past the site 42 commissary would the foundation work with or contain the doctor from doctor who so 100 percent uh the foundation would try to contain that monster and the reason being number one obviously an alien life form anomalous all that time travel business we want to study the tARDIS we want to study its alien biology we want to study its sonic screwdriver all that anomalous tech and just as a fact of the matter uh yeah it can work alongside unit from time to time it can work alongside torch wood from time to time but it never sticks around and it never stays in its box so uh it's very frustrating that way if it wanted to be an anomalous member of staff and worked with us well it could but it doesn't want to and therefore it has to go in a box and not another pandorica we've done two of those and it broke out both times with paradoxes that don't even make any sense so hmm we need a better plan adam thank you for your don't know make sure to grab yourself a i'm gonna i'm gonna say that you can have a cheeseburger over at the commissary tell them dr sherman sent you i'm a level four researcher well adam i have no reason to disbelieve that right yet how is scp 096 well foxy gang scp 096 is just fine in its box with its little bag over its head we got it back in after yesterday's breach and so we still have the uh we're up to one day since containment breach one day and hopefully it stays that way have you ever put a paper bag over 096 is that video game nerd yes of course we have and you know fabric bags work better they stay on better especially if you can tie them leona thank you for your five i guess that's a euros or a pound i'm not sure the symbol i want to know though i want to know the currencies to be kind and well informed of people who are being kind to the say 42 cause okay that's a euro and so that must be a pound it is a pound thank you for your don't know and the answer to your question is that number one i don't trust 343 in the first place i think that jerk is lying about being god and it's silencing the people who are saying otherwise which is why i can't say so very loudly but beyond that yeah when i asked it to make the tree scream it just laughed at me what a jerk i think he's more of a jerk i think it's more of a jerk because i don't believe it's actually god andre c2a good to see in the chat today what do you think of project crossover i think it's very important wait no no you're not talking about the thing i'm talking about project crossover scp okay okay uh what is the uh before i answer your question what was the thing i was thinking of project scp project foundation scp no there's a oh okay yes what i thought you were talking about is the plan to migrate the scp wiki off of wiki dot and onto its own servers that way it is not uh tied to wiki dots shaky infrastructure he says on the day that wiki dot is uh not working but that plan is so far back in anything happening with it that uh it's not even worth talking about it is uh far far far far far far far far far far far far far future plans but what do i think of project crossover your actual question uh project crossover was a contest on the wiki this is your challenge right a crossover fanfic between the scp foundation and any other fictional universe of your choice so i have only seen a couple of these and i did find some of the humorous uh in fact really funny the diary of an existential kid which is of course a diary of a wimpy kid crossover with scp actually got uh seen by the author of diary by a wimpy kid and so we got a twitter reaction about that and uh he actually liked it i think so that was pretty funny uh but overall i think it's a fun little project here and there uh i don't really know any of the stories too well so uh that's the 2012 era mostly but yeah it's a fun little idea i love a good crossover now and then frankie thank you for your two pound don't know make sure to grab yourself a cookie on your way past the commissary uh well i don't see anything particularly sinister about that phrase from the beginning so uh our day will come stimp 27 thank you for your $5 don't know make sure to grab yourself a can of capri sun at the commissary that's right our capri sun comes in cans not pouches that's how weird we are at the foundation oh and thank you both of you for being your first don't know to the site 42 team uh if a that thing can be considered an anomaly how do you contain it so we have on the scp wiki you know i try not to say its name because i'm trying to like go by the laws of the supernatural creature but that w named native american cannibal spirit uh is scp 323 i believe darn you wiki dot wake up all right what if i navigate to it by uh using links rather than trying to type it in boom it worked so the scp 323 is what you're looking for and so we already have one and so if you're asking how we contain it uh scp 323 is to be kept in a 17 cubic meter concrete containment cell in site 91 the object is to be restrained in the center of the cell with a one cubic meter container of 8.8 centimeter thick transparent armor transparent armor lined with one-way laminate which is to be fit with one electronically locked access port what is transparent armor uh what is transparent armor bulletproof glass is that what it is is a bulletproof glass that's weird that's a weird way to say bulletproof glass transparent armor just to be aware site 42 staff we're currently at 191 viewers and 153 likes you can pop that like over the viewer account very easily i believe in you site 42 staff let's get it done for the foundation no personnel are to enter 323s containment cell except to examine the integrity of 323s or strength measures strength measures are to be examined bi-weekly and he signs a damage or to be repaired all personnel who enter 323s containment cell are to be accompanied by an armed guard personnel not to be within 323s containment cell for longer than 45 minutes and any communication around 323 is to be written or spoken in a language other than english or french that's okay so it's a skull and it can move a little bit and it has an influence that makes people want to wear it and then it turns them into crazy crazy uh but yeah that is our version of that so enjoy scp 323s since that's what you're interested in zebra and member of five months welcome to the chat good to see you i like when it shouts you out right here that makes it easy thank you youtube for doing the job i'm gonna move this a little bit just so you see more of my face while i'm searching i gotta put you guys like here no i'm gonna put you guys like oh lace it lace it through gotta be careful there there more in front there that way i'm here and it's still a side view but it's not square and still square i didn't fix a gosh darn thing oh well i thought unless i move you a little closer can't lose 049 though all right where was i rancy gaming thank you for your other donut second donut tonight dr sure i'm in a d-class at site redacted has exhibited a property that nullifies other scp properties would you like it it's to send it for site 42 for research well if it's at site redacted i don't know what their capabilities are so quite possibly nullifies other scp properties you know i just read about an article that does that one second what article was that i just read that last night because we're doing a video on it 584 dang it i can't do that i can't use the wiki by typing in numbers right now this is really frustrating uh 6584 this is a lesson in procrastination yes 6584 is actually a thomial that nullifies scp's so i would suggest as sending it to either site 19 or site 43 would be better than sending it to us i mean as much as i want to get my hands on it we have to follow proper protocol you did it site 42 staff we have more likes than we have viewers give yourself a hand an accelerated visit scp 999 for all present congratulations jack lupin new member welcome to level one researcher site the real mumble bee thank you for your dono make sure to pick up a croissant way by the site 42 commissary uh you said that question already stmc 27 uh go check out two uh three scp 323 for your intels right there nova hey dr sherman what's your current salary i hope you're being compensated all right for the amazing work you do thank you for your five dollar dono that helps to site 42 coffers to pay me that salary so right now my current seller is a in negotiation with the overseers you know they take you away from your uh whole entire life and family and they put you in a dark site and i mean it's it's a dark site but there is like a campus kind of like a college campus but bigger and there's more guards everywhere but we have off-brand versions of the restaurants love you love like apple booze and we can go to chole's we can get some burger eaters they got a wick donald's over there wick donald's is a good one the burger queen a little bit of arbos engineer vr sir when do you think we can make that tree scream well i wanted to do it before christmas this year but it does not seem that we're going to succeed and i was sure it was going to happen at the holiday party but i just uh couldn't pull it off unfortunate but i'm looking it's looking really promising for 2024 i got some new intense procedures that'll probably get the job done so here's a here's a hoping and make sure to grab yourself a fruit cup on your way past the commissary andre what would happen if scp 507 is infected with scp 3002 before teleporting to another dimension well i would need to know what scp 3002 does so let's take a quick peek at the database i'm not gonna i'm not gonna type it because i've learned that it doesn't work i need to navigate using the in wiki menus because i'm i'm a clever dan all right attempts to assassinate thought is the title here all right so single prisoner affected by 3002 is to be kept for the purpose of testing and analysis they will be held in a standard humanoid containment cell inside 41 verbal and physical interaction is to be limited to approve testing rain prisoners and staff members of south rock penitentiary have been given class B amnestics and are being monitored for any recurrence of 3002 uh 3002 refers to a specific memory shared by 85 of the prisoner population in the south rock penitentiary located near lafayette indiana affected inmates are all able to recall a specific day from their childhood specific dates vary between subjects but the majority remember this day occurring sometime between the ages of 10 to 13 3002 accounts consist of the individual walking through or playing in a forested garden with their best friend at the time at some point in their memory and mates recall getting into an argument with their friend several accounts have details that conflict with the person's actual life as several subjects did not live in or travel locations with force until their adult life three news originally discovered when dr susan fairbank a psychologist working at the prison there's a large amount of inmates mentioning specific memories that all seem to be identical the incident brought to the attention of the foundation psychology board different anomaly shared memory inmates were able to recall details of scp 3002 with idetic idetic memory clarity after several interviews the subject code began to recall progressively less details in 3002 to the point where recollection of the affected memory was similar to normal memories the reason behind this is unclear the more times they remember it the more they forget it how interesting uh incarcerated interview new blocks transfer it's not a normal transfer not permanent good grub go back to your childhood fun birthdays broken bones call me whatever but why do you care some sort of shrink answer the question me and john were playing in brum woods john's time when i had kids i go i went by joy back then john denizio was confirmed to be an actual person through census records and social media he is currently living in lansing michigan observation revealed no anomalous effects anyways we were messing around being dicks to some squirrels it was cloudy for a while blah blah blah savakia what is it all right so what is what is can i get a long story short for oh don't break on me now don't break on me now scp wiki all right let's do scp lakonic scp 3002 let's see if i can get a lakonic explanation for 3002 long story short lakonic description object class keter provide anyone infected with scp 3002 is to be killed on site and all information is to be heavily suppressed scp 3002 is a sentient memetic hazard that slowly takes over your mind and rewrites your memories until you lose consciousness and it has control of your body talking about it will spread to other people at the time of writing almost 80% of the human population is infected originally written for the 3000 contestant features an mk class total loss of human consciousness scenario so i would assume that if we were to infect 507 with 3002 and then it poofed to another dimension then number one that dimension would probably be messed up because our foundation would not be able to find it before it spread the memory there long long enough and b when it got back it would probably infect our crew causing it to be the foundation to be taken as well basically not a good thing because we can't contain 507 well joseph ward hello dr sherman hello joseph ward welcome back to the chat good to see you again sydney welcome back to the chat oh uh joseph and sydney you are both allotted free popcorns at the commissary if you drop by make sure not to miss that i hope you're getting santa a glass of scp 686 and forcing him four attempts at 1459 with these reality anchors i stole 686 and 1459 686 and 1459 686 and 1459 no that's uh that's uh six thousands not six hundreds 686 was the freaking uh milk again you are you seem to be obsessed with this thing 1459 yep okay so uh you got this thing in your mind you need to uh maybe see if that's a memetic if you can get that worked out but okay what's 1459 doot doot doot doot doot gotta go the long way because the upside is broken 1459 the puppy machine but are you so are you trying to get him cookies for his milk is that your plan it's a very roundabout way to do it you can just go to the commissary for milking cookies i'll actually uh i'll sponsor those for you that'd be a much quicker solution yeah yeah it's a way easier solution than whatever this uh elaborate rub goldberg machine of terror you have planned is sniper fox 86 thank you for your donation make sure to pick yourself up a grilled cheese sandwich at the commissary on your way by i have a question regarding scp 173 will 173 kill a blind man i'm basically asking whether 173 kills people for not looking at it or for looking away from it after initially viewing it i am 99 sure that i read somewhere on the wiki that a blind person is still susceptible to 173 i don't think it plays fair like oh you're blind so i won't you i think it's gonna do it either way so i do not think blind people are safe but if you find a tale or article that says otherwise i'm happy to be proven wrong joseph ward you're having trouble with the d class this morning well what's the problem i need more information otherwise we don't know how to uh sorry i just saw something in the chat that i'm going to address in just a minute uh yes what's the problem with the d class uh how do we need to do we need to terminate the whole class immediately do we just need to uh discipline them uh we need more intel rancy gaming have you tried using disney magic on the tree this is what i saw that was funny to me and this is because as an inside joke back in the days when i played a whole lot of uh super smash brothers uh they had the fireworks item and we would always yell eat disney magic every time we shot that at each other disney magic motherfucker and so we have not tried shooting fireworks at the tree but now you've got it in my mind shoot fireworks at the tree let's uh throw that in there it's a great idea you've done well engineer vr dr everything about how we use fire to make scb 4521 scream hey those go together quite well you guys are teaming up in the right room now we have done some fire related incidents uh we did use that branding iron which was really tacky but uh didn't work uh we burned several parts of it but you know it's it's a trio if we burn it too much it won't be around and then we can't make it scream so we gotta be we gotta be careful very very controlled burns i saw dr cleft fraternizing with scp 1471 uh day one you absolutely must be mistaken because i know for a fact that dr cleft would not cheat on scp 173 and if you haven't seen the uh scp tale date night to see the depths of that relationship well we haven't recorded on the site 42 video archive so you can go listen to that and it's uh it's certainly something joseph or the d-class are having a fight so we separated them and the strongest punched me and made scp breach containment how did they do that last part how did punching you make the scp breach containment did you have the did you did you have the gate release button in your back pocket again did did it punch you the d-class punch you and then you fell on your back pocket and you let everyone out i told you how irresponsible that is you can't be sitting there keeping the scp cage release button in your back pocket how irresponsible now obviously we're gonna terminate that d-class but we're also going to have to dock your pay for a week for having to clean up this mess that you so irresponsibly created this yes engineer use the tune force to make that redacted tree scream well if we have any scp's that have access to tune force because right now i mean i'm i don't have tune force that's a very limited resource right along with hammer space so uh we'll have to go check out and see where we can find that andre what would you do when the end of death event occurs well my main goal would be to not fall in a hole uh where i could not be rescued to basically i just try to live the healthiest safest life i could because if i'm not gonna die i don't want to end up in a situation where i die and it's terrible that i did that because i have two seven one eight which is highly classified so don't tell people i told you about this that one we already know that when you die your consciousness doesn't fade you just feel your body rotting until your entrails and everything turns to dust and then the dust flies away but you're still conscious and that's messed up but then end of death it's also like that because you're still alive even when you are decrepit and injured and comatose and so you just uh you want to stay safe and you want to stay healthy that's the key to end the death the opposite of everyone who just tries to off themselves because that doesn't help they stay alive it's bad for your health and sanity joseph no they stole it ah they punched you and they stole the button why do you have the button on you in the first place shouldn't have been that in the security office shouldn't that have been in the security office and even if you need it at the time shouldn't have been in the d-class pen what are you doing in the d-class pen there's a lot of suspicious things going in your account here i'm gonna have to uh make sure security questions you about this engineer i think i know man sir monkey d luffy you know i don't think pirates are going to be super keen on working with a fascist secret organization it's just a hunch but they're a little bit too hippie-dippy freedom force for that i don't think uh don't think that one's gonna be on our side although i'd love to contain it i mean anomalies and anomaly let's put in a box but i don't think it's gonna help us willingly the fbi the fbi you unusual incidence units suckers are gonna show up in a foundation chat where's your budget are you uh working off a compi 386 over there how long does it take the chat to fly by because it's flying pretty fast i'm pretty sure you're bargain basement tech


Do you have a scheduled time that you put aside every day for your postings? Okay, there's a little bit of method to the madness, let's say. I could go, I could talk for a while about it, to be honest with you, but I try to post on Instagram once a day, two if I can, right? I like to try to do a video and picture once a day, too. I love to get that video out about 11-ish. I think when it comes to what time are we posting, because are you talking about how do you fit it all into your schedule, or are you talking about when's the best time to post? Fitting it into your schedule? Because to me, it doesn't matter when you post. Post. Don't try to pre-qualify when people are looking or what's going on. The algorithms, the way they are now, you can post 10 times a day on Instagram, and it's not going to flood people's feet, because they're only going to see whatever that one was that you had just posted, and then Instagram is going to show them other people's posts. It's not spamming. You could post 10 times a day, and it's not going to spam your followers. You know what I mean? See, they built the algorithms for the end user, so that it's not spamming. It creates a situation where you can post as much as you want to, but as far as fitting into your day, you just have to get into a routine. I like to try to hit Twitter a couple of times a day, and then Instagram a couple of times a day. It's really just kind of, but I have it in my mind, like before lunch, I need to post on a bunch of different platforms before I go to lunch. At the end of the day, I like to hit that YouTube video, whatever I'm going to put out, and here's the thing I've been doing lately, is I'll post it as unlisted on YouTube, and then it goes out on my email the next morning, and they don't get a notification of it. They get the email and they watch it, and then it creates all these views and all this engagement before it's even public, and then flip it to public. Now, all of a sudden it's got all these views and it's public, and YouTube kind of likes that is what I've found. Can you tell me more about this? So she posted something about her personal life, and then, okay. Okay, inspirational, inspirational quote. Okay, that's okay. Well, let me ask you though, why why does she care if that person took the quote? She said that she felt like it was an emotional, very full, personal experience. Just like she did the right thing, she did the right thing, block them and move on. Things happen, and you feel uncomfortable, if you feel something uncomfortable, somebody does something uncomfortable, get rid of them, and then forget about it the second, that second, and keep going. I mean, how do you handle haters? Because I'm sure you have. No, I don't think I have any.  You know what I mean? It's like if you're letting the super positive, that's getting your head up, and then somebody posts a negative comment, and then it just deflates everything.  I have a motto, and it's do not care. Seriously, seriously, I don't care about how hard it's going to be, how long it's going to take, what anybody thinks, anything. I do not care about anything. Seriously. And I think that's the way you have to be. Don't care, just do it. Work. There's sort of a structure to Ricky's interview clips. Somebody asks him a question, and then he immediately says the last thing they're expecting to hear. The last one I saw, somebody asked you, well, what do I do when clients are taking up too much of my time? And his response is something along the lines of spend more time talking about them, and again, I don't care. And then that immediately as an audience member is like, well, that wasn't what I was expecting to hear. And you lean in, and you're engaged, and you now want to hear his explanation and really think about how can I make them feel something? How can I bring them value? And specifically, how do I create that gap to make them lean in, which I'm always impressed. I think you do, I don't know if you do it on purpose, but you do it almost every single time. It's calculated. Yeah. Guys, just to add on to that, he calls it the gap. We call it a hook. Yes. And what it is, and it is very calculated, all of my content is every piece of it is set up to draw you in the very first word of a Twitter post, the very first part of a YouTube video, or the, you know, whatever, you know, the stories, whatever it is, I'm trying to draw you in. I see people's attention span is so small, and it's getting smaller and smaller and smaller, and it's going to get worse. You have to develop the skill of knowing how to grab someone's attention immediately. And every- When they're scrolling- And when they're scrolling. Yeah. It's as tall as the statue of Liberty, right? Like, that's how much they're scrolling in the day. You have like 0.2 of a second to grab their eyeballs, right? And say something that's going to make them want to engage and be like, Hey, what is he talking about today? What's he talking about? And you need to do that. When you give away all the information up front, why are they going to engage with you? Right? You're telling them everything. You've got to tease them. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Gap hook, tease, got it. That's our hashtag. Yeah. And I'll say too, every piece of content you do is not going to go viral, and it's not going to, you know, get, get all the likes and everything. That's not really, and here's something I want you guys to really think about too. All right. Everybody is so concerned with how many likes and, and comments and all of the engagement, right? That's what we're really shooting for here. But what I think you're not even paying attention to this right there under your nose is the impressions. His stats on his group, he said he had X amount of impressions, 2200 something engagements, right? But you got to think the impressions, that means somebody saw it. Just because they didn't double tap didn't mean that they didn't see that you're doing an open house on Saturday. Right. The double tap didn't mean they saw that you're going to be there on Saturday and they know that you're out there working. The impression to me is just as valuable as the engagement. Okay. And the same thing goes for emails because I'm an email marketer and everybody's so concerned with open rates. To me, my best clients aren't even looking at my emails right now because they're not ready. They're going to, they're going to start looking, they're going to start opening that email in three years when they're ready. So a lot of people are scared. I don't know what to put on my emails. I don't, they're not even going to, chances are they're not, your clients aren't even looking at your emails yet, right? Or a lot of them aren't. But the fact that they saw it in their inbox, every Wednesday, you know, for so many years, it's the impressions. So start thinking too, about impressions. Look at your impressions. What's up guys? You see everybody leaving. We just got through here with the panel of social media. Had a blast. Everybody got a lot of value out of this. So all of you guys that came, thank you so much. Today is that long-term game. Now I play the circle prospecting game. That's my game. That's where I live. Circle prospecting is going back door on the market. If you do for sale, boners and expires, even if you're really, really good, okay, there's a lot of other agents calling those for sale, boners and expires. So what's most efficient?
