And I believe the recording is on. Okay. Hi everybody. Thanks for joining the Jenkins advocacy and outreach sick meeting today is Thursday, February 9. On the agenda I have just a couple of action items to go over. And we're going to do a recap of Fostum so I'm hoping Jean-Marc and Bruno can walk us through that a little bit give us a little bit feedback. And then we'll talk about G sock. She code Africa. CD con and scale. Is there anything else that we need to add to the agenda. Nope. Okay, sorry. All right, so I have already submitted the, the G sock application for for Jenkins as the mentoring org so we will wait for that until believe us to 22nd. This is where you have a drum roll. Yeah. So that's done. And we're, we're just in waiting mode at the moment. And then the January newsletter has been published. So thank you, Bruno, for all of that and thanks to all the sick chairs for their contributions there. So we're going to the agenda so Fostum. Jean-Marc, I'll start with you. What was your some of your key takeaways and what are some things that we can improve for next year. It was what was good. It was good seeing people and being able to interact with people. There was a huge crowd, a lot of interest, and a lot of that positive interest was triggered. First by the very nice. Mini cluster that Jenkins cluster that Bruno brought with flickering, flickering lights and all that that created a lot of attention as well as the new UI, the UI improvements. And at the same time, these two elements were great. Icebreakers or to start a conversation with the people and they were a lot of good conversation that were done there. Stickers were, I don't know what they do. They were so hungry that they were eating them. I don't know, but nearly all the stickers went away. We had a good collection of them and it's, it's a nice way to also break the ice and start a conversation. As you would guess, I had a lot of discussions around Google summer of codes and was somehow disappointed by the fact that at least in Europe. The program is not that no. So this is something that we could improve or an attention point. Now, what we could have improved. Well, Well, first thing the fun factor was very high. So there was good very good humor. My idea with coming from from sales from sales background there. We could make it even better in organizing conversations. Preparing or having a little briefing on how do you engage the conversation. What are the main messages to pass or a lot of questions were about what is the future of Jenkins where we heading. When will this be fixed. And unless you're deeply rooted in all the affairs and decision making process in the Jenkins and looking at Mark White here, most of us have to improvise a little bit. Preparing that part better would give even more efficient and powerful message to the various users and contributors. So that was one. That would that was the the main, the main improvement. I think the impact we had at that conference with barely lippin means was very high. And I was super satisfied by participation to that to that conference. To mark his hand. Yes, and you need to stop. Mark, I think I saw reference to a presentation of of Tim Jacome and Jan Farachiks. What's next in in Jenkins UI. How was that presented was it shown as a video on the screen was Tim there to talk about it was young there to talk about it. What was the what was the presentation mechanism and how was it received. Well, as far as I know, it was just a preview website, something that a mock up of something that we were showing up after the first time somebody asked on Twitter for some more information and then only answered about the video of team and project. Got it. Okay, so, so what was shown at the at the conference was screenshots or or a website, whichever it was. At best, just the visualization of their markup no conversation about it no, not presenting Tim's and Jan's observations about why this is important why that is important that kind of thing. Okay, thank you. And this goes in it into the direction. The people at the stands myself or others. We could have been better prepared to explain this or to share that, but even with the little preparation we had we had some very good conversation. So, I have an action item pending from the governance board to update and make the current roadmap on Jenkins that I owe actually current but I assume that during the FOSM segment you didn't refer to the roadmap probably at all. No. So, so the fact that it's badly out of date compared to actual implementation was not harmful to you, but it also did not help you. Yeah, okay. Sorry. But here that this this shows the the feeling of not having the right tools or not mastering the right tools to even better leverage the contacts we had. Got it. Thank you. Okay, thanks very much. Bruno does this this summary. Yeah, it perfectly fine. Thank you. We had the same kind of experience. I don't have much to add. No, frankly, the thing is, I've already said it to Mark and Alisa first and helped me to realize that open source is not just a bunch of people working on the same projects. It's more of a spirit of trying to help people and powering them to get, you know, better or something and just to be free. In fact, and that's something I felt deeply when being in the first dam. People just wanting to share knowledge to help each other to think of partnerships to, you know, to grow together and that's something that you don't always get when you are just interacting on GitHub, Twitter, whatever. This was really different. Yeah, less mechanical, you know, I tend to think of open source like just to get a punch card. It's much more than that and this showed up pretty big at first. So we know what we can improve for this or other conferences. For sure. Yeah. And did we did in the past conferences we've run a rotating slide deck with with mini-gen running on the screen that you had I assume you were focused on keeping Jenkins visible rather than doing any rotating slide deck. We had the rotating slide deck. We made it on the booth. So we had a few slides, but most of the time we were showing Jan and Tim's UI proposals, and then we were going back to the mini-gen control dashboard. So we were, we had three tabs and rotating between the three of them. Okay, so that was an important thing. So as Alyssa and I are going to head to a conference here in the United States in March, you rotated screens by just switching tabs on the browser. Yeah, yeah. Okay, all right. Switch browser tabs. And we had just one Wi-Fi network for the whole booth that holds the machines on the machine composing mini-gen but also Damian's laptop, everyone was sharing the same Wi-Fi but it was easy to show things. Okay. And Alyssa, you're bringing, you're bringing the screen to scale, right? I don't have to bring a screen. Bruno, your mini-gen has inspired, I'm intending to build my own, and I'm bringing a cluster of pies to the scale conference as well to have a physical device to to incent people to come have a conversation with us. We'll see. Yes. We haven't done that kind of physical device story in the past. And so we'll see if it helps increase traffic at scale. It worked one time. Hopefully it will work multiple times. We'll see. As long as people don't get bored, let's continue. But at least, at least it wakes up the curiosity of the people. Yeah, it was a nice eye-catcher. This is where you, where exactly, this is where you need to jump. It's like when you give stickers and you say, well, help yourself. By the way, are you using Jenkins? And what do you do with it? And where does it help you and what are the pain points? Yes. And the last thing I was not prepared to was people just wanting to come and testify about their love and use of Jenkins. I was afraid of getting some hate, something, you know, but no, people love Jenkins. That's cool. A lot of very satisfying stories. Very nice. So I mentioned to Bruno, the one thing that we have in common is that, so I go to a lot of conferences in the States and in Europe. And when I'm at the Jenkins booth, they come and they say the same thing, regardless of where I'm at. So the messaging is quite consistent. So I believe in it. I thought at first I thought, well, people are just, you know, it's just a way to break the ice. But they're just trying, being nice. But it's pretty much the same everywhere we go when we have a Jenkins booth. And I was amazed at the variety of industries that people are using Jenkins in. Of course, I already knew about embedded automotive, but we had somebody from CERN. I actually remember the acronym. It's something about nuclear in Europe. High energy physics. Yeah, that's where the worldwide web got invented. And boom, people are using, people from CERN are using Jenkins. There's lots and lots and even, I don't know, Domotique in French, you know, things to automate your blinders, your house, your door, whatever. OpenHAB is the name of the project. They came and said, we're using Jenkins. We love it and so on and so on and so on. Jenkins is just about everywhere. The only message that was not that good was that most of the people using Jenkins for embedded software were building with Jenkins, but not testing or deploying things to Jenkins. So that's something we should maybe have a look at. Great. Thanks, John Mark and Bruno for sacrificing your weekend to staff the stand. Totally worth it. I loved it. And to be frank, yeah, being able to come in country. Yeah, and see John Mark, Damien, Oleg, Alexander, Olivier, for example, for real, having them all for me and for the others just for the weekend, that was super cool. Very nice. Okay. So moving on to GSOC. So as I mentioned, we did apply as a mentoring org. We made it before the deadline. And so now we are planning our next phase, which is the office hours. So we're going to assume that we've been accepted. So we're going to plan as such a little bit snobbish. We're going to be optimistic. It will work. Yeah. And with John Mark's magic touch and meeting the GSOC folks in FOSTA, that's like 99.9% confidence in me feeling that we're going to get accepted so we're planning ahead. So the next phase is going to be the office hours where the mentors will go over the project ideas in detail and answer any questions we contributors potential contributors might have. Like I said, the announcement, well, the announcement for the accepted mentoring orgs is going to be February 22nd. So as soon as that is announced, we will, we're going to go ahead and schedule for the office hours to be on the 23rd. So if I can jump in there. So these office hours are the backbone, or the next important phase, which is where the students are preparing their submission for that. So that this is a month and a half long, and we'll start immediately. I'm currently preparing with the help of Alyssa, a poll to know what is the adequate time for that. So historically, we held the office hour around four o'clock p.m. UTC, which is about this time now this winter time. And so I have, I have some doubts. I'm going I'm preparing and reviewing the poll might go out tomorrow. I need to do a test review with a couple of of you. So because currently I think it's midnight in Hong Kong, or nearly midnight. Chris. I think it's okay though I prefer this time. Yeah, so I need to check with India. I like this this time because this is where we cover most of the earth and the other part of the earth that is not covered is just water, the Pacific Ocean. So, but we're fine tuning. Another important thing is currently there is a huge amount of activity and interest on the various channels that we have. And some mentors in particular Chris are super active, guiding the people, helping them out. I have precise figures of how many people are interested, but I would like to thank Chris here for his dedication and the great work he's doing in mentoring and helping all those people. So Chris, thank you, thank you very much for all you're doing. To recap, next steps for Google Summer of Code. We are helping out people that are still building their last Jenkins muscle as I named that face, we are preparing the first office hours. And as we are confirmed to be part of the program, February 22. We roll, and we start by explaining in details every project. This is where we standing. I listen back to you. Thank you, Sean mark. Any questions on G suck. Okay, so she code Africa mark I will hand that over to you. You're on mute mark. Me being the bearer of bad news. We've done the she code Africa contribute on I think two or three of the latter two or two or three years now, and, and felt like it was a good, a good use of, of our energy. I've told the cloud bees that they donated $6,000 each year to to fund the Jenkins projects participation. This year, I don't feel like we should do she code Africa contribute on and so I've made the personal decision, I'm not going to do she code Africa contribute on and since I was the primary driver in the past. That means the Jenkins project will not do she code Africa contribute on. I think we should focus our effort on Google summer of code. The, the realization came to me as I was describing to other mentors that even during this phase of Google summer of code a mentor should expect to spend four to eight hours a week on their project, preparing to mentor preparing for the selections preparing getting themselves more deeply involved, and I can't do that and, and also run she code Africa contribute on and so it's a this is an intentional choice on my part that she code Africa contribute on won't happen in the Jenkins project this year, because I believe we'll get more value out of focusing all our energy on Google summer of code. I'm open to other disputes, but my sense, I've told Zeno, I won't we won't be participating and, and they'll just have to go ahead without the Jenkins project. I personally believe that, given, given the current situation, we're, we're low on on mentors and people that are able to dedicate their time that we need now to be very cautious and thoughtful. About where we put the energy and there are a lot of, there's a lot of attention and also requirement in Google summer of code. As Mark, Mark said, it's a sad decision. Right, but we the choices have to be done. I think she code Africa, the challenge there. It's pretty much the same as G sock. There's finding mentors is really hard and mark in the past couple of years has been shouldering this on his own for a few years so I think it's a lot. It's a lot so now let's focus on quality versus quantity. Super. Thanks. That's all that I had on that one. Okay. Thanks, Mark. So CD con, we're still planning for that. The CFP is open until tomorrow tomorrow's the last day so mark if you want to make a submission there we have one more day. And then they're also talking about doing the Jenkins awards again so past couple of years, we've been doing the same award. Most valuable advocate most valuable contributor security MVP, and we will be driving this award within the project or from the project, and then CDF will showcase or announce the award at CD con. So there are some important dates there that I will need to work on. So the nomination is already actually. Yeah, it's already open but I need to get to create a pull request for that. So, keep an eye out for that so once that is open I will announce it via Twitter and LinkedIn and you got submissions nominations please nominate folks. And then scale planning is in progress as Mark mentioned he will mimic the, the great idea from Bruno and create a cluster of PIs and we'll have that on our table at our stand hopefully that will I'm sure that will attract attention and and be a conversation starter for us. I didn't realize it was so near. Yeah, nine is is. Yeah, for weeks so. Typically the open source events for us is it seems to happen beginning of the year the first one or two and three months. That's when we're most busy. Yeah. And then, okay. And then for today's security advisory. Yep. I got that so I will work on that after this meeting Mark. Yeah, and unless I was going to offer usually that's not when we want to put on you just because the phrasing has to be relatively precise. Okay, I'd even say if you don't mind let me take it, particularly because of how deeply I'm involved in that particular set of things that's a platform sig topic. And if it were phrased incorrectly it might look like it where I get plug in problem when it is in fact not. Okay, so so it's, it's the words, the words are carefully chosen when we do security, security tweets. And if we don't say exactly the right words, we risk that someone will be confused and will create unnecessary unnecessary angst or concern. Got it. Okay. Thank you for taking that over. I'm not going to play complain about less work. Okay, I, that's it. Unless anybody has anything else that they want to cover tiny little thing I'm giving a talk next week in the local university about open source and Jenkins. Right. Cool. Bruno, do you want to put the information on this document and then I will, then I'll send out a tweet. Let me know the link and the date and all that stuff. We'll do. Okay. Awesome. Alrighty.


The first randomized, controlled study of a gluten-free, casein-free diet for autism found that parents in the diet group reported their kids did significantly better. But that could just be the placebo effect, where parents attribute changes to the diet, particularly since they're putting so much work into it that they may be biased towards seeing evidence of success that may not actually be there. OK, so what if you don't just rely on parental report? What if you do a blinded study of a gluten- and casein-free diet? The parents know what the kids are eating, but you don't just ask the parents how the kids are doing. You have investigators objectively assess all the kids without knowing who was in which group, the diet group or the control group. And they found a significant, beneficial effect at 8, 12, and 24 months on core autistic behaviors with a gluten- and casein-free diet. And this was one of the largest such studies ever done, starting out with 73 children, but they didn't end up with 73, since about a fifth dropped out, mostly from the diet group. If a family didn't feel their child was making strides on the diet, they may have been more likely to drop out of the study, thereby skewing the analysis towards those in which the diet appeared to work better. And so the remarkable results they got in terms of improved social interaction and fewer ADHD-type symptoms may have ended up exaggerating the effects of the diet, since the kids for which it didn't help may have gotten kind of disproportionately weeded out. Also, because the parents were very much aware whether they were in the diet group versus the control group, because they were the ones cooking the meals, they may have changed their own behavior towards their children. Like in that famous sugar study where mothers were lied to and told their children they'd just received a whopping dose of sugar, even though they hadn't, not only did the mothers rate their children as significantly more hyperactive, they inadvertently changed their own behavior. They were videotaped, and the mothers who falsely believed their kids just got a load of sugar exercised more control and were more critical, so their expectation of an effect may have actually ended up having an actual effect in changing their children's behavior. So in these autism studies, here the parents are upending their families' diet, hoping, expecting that their child will get better and maybe unconsciously treating them differently, such that they end up behaving differently when assessed later by the blinded investigators. That's why we need double-blind studies, where no one knows who's in the diet group, who's in the control group, not the parents, not the kids, so why didn't the researchers do it? Why didn't they secretly sneak some gluten or casein into their diets to see if they got worse again? Same excuse as before, it wouldn't be ethical. But that's pre-deciding the outcome, it's like circular logic. We can't test to see if it really works because it may really work, but we can't test that. Finally, however, researchers at the University of Florida broke through the impasse by performing a double-blind study. Now, this is not an easy thing to do, I mean you have to provide all meals and snacks so that the families remain clueless as to whether they were randomized into the gluten-free and casein-free diet group or were actually in the control group getting the same foods but with gluten and casein slipped in. Then after six weeks, they switched the food so the gluten-free casein-free group started getting wheat and dairy, and the wheat and dairy control group were covertly switched to gluten and casein-free. Before they broke the codes to see who was in which group, the parents were asked as to whether they thought their child was on the special diet during the first or second six weeks, and five got it right, two had no idea, and six got it wrong. In other words, no better than a flip of a coin chance. The half pretty much thought their kids got better on the casein and gluten, so no statistically significant findings, though several parents did report an improvement in their children claiming market improvements in language and decreased hyperactivity, decreased tantrums, so much so that a bunch of the parents decided to keep the children on the diet even though the researchers just told them that it didn't work. Look, you don't want to miss anything though, some of the parents claimed significant improvement. So what the researchers did was go back and examine the videotapes they made of the kids before and after and showed them to blinded examiners. Did their language really get better? Apparently not. The videotape showed no improvement, so again did not support the efficacy of a gluten-free casein-free diet from proving some of the core symptoms of autism, or at least within six weeks' time. The non-double-blind studies that showed an effect had kids in the diet for a year or two, and so the failure to find an effect in the double-blind study should not necessarily be interpreted to mean that diet doesn't work, given the relatively shorter duration of dietary intervention. The same issue cropped up years later in a 2014 study in Texas. The whole study design put everyone on a gluten-free casein-free diet, and then randomized parents to get baggies each week, filled with either gluten-free casein-free brown rice flour, thereby sticking to the diet or an identical-looking powder with gluten and milk mixed in. So no one knew until the end who really remained gluten-in-casein-free and no meaningful changes were found in either diet group. OK, but this study only lasted four weeks, and diet proponents suggest it may take months of gluten-in-casein to properly assess a response. The problem is there hadn't been any double-blind studies that lasted that long until now. We'll find out what they found next.

Hi, this is Pastor David Rosales of Calvary Chapel of the Chino Valley, California. In the Gospel of John, chapter 6, verse 67, John wrote, Then Jesus said to the twelve, Do you also want to go away? This is a question that I believe can be asked of any who have come to faith in Jesus. It is a question that can come in various ways, but I have become convinced that in the life of every believer, this question will inevitably be asked, Do you also want to go away? It can come in a season of pain, it can come in a time of confusion, it can come when least expected, but it is a question that will one day be asked of every believer. This question came to me when I was a young believer, I was around 25 years old, and I had gotten to the point of where I just wanted to give up. I'm not sure why I wanted to throw in the faith towel, but so many things had piled up on me at that time that I had just gotten to the point of breaking work, college, teaching two Bible studies a week, an emotional letdown, plus an assortment of other concerns had just pushed me over the edge. I'd gotten to the point of just wanting to give up. I just didn't care anymore. I didn't have the strength to even try to push myself forward. I can still remember my mother's face when she and I were talking, and I told her that Christianity was a good philosophy for some, but it just no longer seemed to work for me. She was so upset and understandably so. I had led her to the Lord in January of 1971, and here it was, November of 1975, and I was talking about walking away from Jesus. I had been teaching Bible studies in my parents' home since September of 1973 and had shared many times about the love and faithfulness of God, the purpose of trials and how God would never leave you nor forsake you. I knew these things were promises of God found in Scripture, but for me it seemed as if the heavens were brass and God had turned His face for me. I had somehow become convinced that God loved other people, but He just didn't love me. So I told her Christianity just doesn't work for me. As she walked out of the den I felt terrible. I didn't want to be the cause of stumbling for her, and yet I honestly was so depressed I just blurted out what I was feeling. A couple of weeks passed after that conversation, and I can still remember as I was seated on a couch in the den with my Bible open next to me, I didn't want to read it, but I picked it up, began reading the Gospel of John chapter 6, and I came to verse 67, and I read Jesus' question, do you also want to go away? I really can't explain it very clearly, but I must simply say that I knew God was asking me that question. I remember praying, God, where is there for me to go? When I got saved, I lost all my old friends. I'm in Bible college. I only dream for the last five years has been to one day pastor at church, where can I go? There's nowhere I can go. These were not words of faith and love. They were confused, angry. I was frustrated. I felt like I was stuck. I had no alternatives. After speaking these words, I continued reading the passage, and John went on to write that Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Also, we have come to believe and know that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God. As I read those words, I began to cry. I remember praying, where can I go, Jesus? What is there in life but you? I'm hurting so much inside. I feel like it could die.  I know that you are the Son of the living God. Help me, please. I wish I could tell you that immediately my sorrow of heart left him, but it didn't. I struggled for some time after, but the struggle changed. I no longer felt like a helpless victim of circumstance. No longer felt abandoned by God. I understood that the victory that would overcome the world would be faith. Faith in a loving God who would walk with me through the valley of the shadow of death. My healing came through surrendering to God's word, receiving God's promise to be with me and to never leave me. Today, if you're hurting, feeling low, trusting the promises of God, return to his word. After all, where can you go? He has the words of eternal life. This is Pastor David Rosales of Calvary Chapel of the Chino Valley, California.


One of the things that's difficult about stress is the, when you're under chronic stress, it becomes difficult to see it in yourself and it becomes difficult to remember who that person was who wasn't stressed out, you know? So I think in terms of resilience and stress management, a lot of it is around trying to keep yourself out of that red line area, right? Because once you cross, it's like once you cross this certain threshold of chronic stress, it can become much more difficult to ramp yourself back down. What's up everybody and welcome to the show today. We drop great content each and every week and we wanna make sure that you guys get notified and in order to do that, you're gonna have to smash that subscribe button and hit that notification bell. And if you've gotten a lot of value out of this, make sure you give us a like and share our videos with your friends. I'm curious because you guys have a really big platform, like do you experience that? Do you have to like tune things out? Oh, absolutely. Anytime you put your voice out there, your perspective, there's going to be people who don't agree even with the most mundane of all takes that we have. And some in our audience don't agree with the tone of our voices or the way that we interview our guests. And it's interesting because everyone has a different style and the way that we choose to bring on guests is we wanna hear more practical information that the audience can use and Johnny and I are penultimate learners. We're constantly learning from our guests. So for me, it's an opportunity to get an hour to actually learn how I can personally grow and of course, share that with the audience. And there are other interviewers that will take different styles with the exact same guests that we have on. But we've learned over the years that if you get too hung up on the hate, well, you're never gonna hit publish. You're never actually going to put something out there, realize that it just comes with the territory. And even Joe Rogan talks about not looking at YouTube comments for that exact reason. And I wanna add to this, the easiest thing to recognize and understand is people are always gonna dig into the most obvious thing. So I have a rock and roll haircut. That's what they go in on. I have a voice that is unique. That's exactly what they go in on.  And that's the one, those are the things that you have to lean on that make you special, that make you different, that show your unique approach to things. But yet that is the exact thing that they wanna hammer on and take from you. So over time, I guess you just know, like these are the things, this is what's gonna happen. Yep. Trying to get used to it.  Well, a funny little anecdote around this exact thing and I think will be interesting to the audience in a number of ways. Part of bringing you on the show was my own issues with stress over the summer and stress really got the best of me and I ended up working with one of your therapists at your clinic and he did this exercise with me.  He rattled off a list of things for me to put in one of these sections. So at the very top of the piece of paper, the left most box is completely in my control. The right most box is completely out of my control. The middle box is the gray area. And we went through a lot of prompts, but the one that he gave me is people like me. Is that in my control, is that out of my control or is that in the gray area? I think many who listen to this show would assume that I would put that's completely in my control in the left hand box. Some listeners would say, okay, AJ, that's in the middle based on what we've learned and I actually put it in the right. It's completely out of my control. I can put my best foot forward and I've learned in 15 years of being on the show that I could deliver what I think is my best performance and people are gonna hate it and people aren't gonna like me for reasons that are completely out of my control. And coming to terms with that, in the beginning caused me a lot of stress and a lot of pain and anguish.  Of course you wish you could have more control and agency in getting people to like you. And even with all the tips and tricks and secrets we have our guest share that Johnny and I have worked on our communication, our presentation, I put it in that right most box because even with my best efforts on my best days, there are people listening to this who are clicking to the next episode, going into iTunes and giving us one star and that's out of my control. And I understand that now and it doesn't cause me stress anymore. So it was a very profound exercise to go through to realize how am I orienting my life? And the last prompt he asked me was, where would this have been five years ago or 10 years ago? Would you still put it in this right box? And I said, no, actually I probably would have put it in the left box. I would have said it's in my control. Of course I want people to like me and I can control them. But that's a fallacy. We don't have that level of control in the way people perceive us. And when you start hitting publish, you start putting things out publicly. You learn that lesson rather quickly. Yeah, yeah. Well, I appreciate you talking about that.  Like we want to be liked and we recognize that there's a lot of upside to that. And so we spend the first half of our life, you know, all high school all the way up through there, through there, figuring out how to be liked in a lot of ways. Like what are the things that if I do them, people are gonna respect me, girls are gonna like me or whoever, you know, like that's a really important part of growing up. And then at a certain point in your life, you have to be able to step away from that and think about, okay, how do I be true to myself? How do I find what I really have to offer and trust that if I'm able to do that and put down those old strategies that I'm gonna find my way into the right parts, the right places in my life, the right career, have the right friends, the right partner partners, you know, like those, those are all the fruits of doing the work to figuring out who you really are. And it's difficult, man. It's hard. It is, and it can be stressful. And part of what Johnny and I have shared on the show is our upbringing, being blue collar in nature and both of our dads telling us to work our tail off and be stubborn and keep outworking people. And unfortunately that stiff upper lip, that work ethic can lead to you not managing stress well. And I had a brief hospital stay a few years back because of blood pressure and stress. Even with that warning signal, I just started taking the meds, listened to my cardiologist and just thought, oh, I'm not gonna worry about the stress component, the mental health component. And then things piled up in the past year from having to change the business, remove all of our in-person training, which is something that Johnny and I absolutely love doing and having a crossroads of, well, what are we doing as a company now with COVID? And that stress just piled high. And I was fortunate enough that my fiance, Amy, recognized the warning signs and said, hey, I don't think you're managing stress very well, but internally I didn't know that I was really managing or not managing it. I just took it as, well, that's what happens when you work hard. Like this is just how life is supposed to be. It's supposed to be stressful. So if you could help our audience recognize some of these warning signs that maybe they aren't managing stress as well as they think they are, and those opportunities that maybe you should seek some support and some help. We drop great content each and every week and we wanna make sure that you guys get notified. And in order to do that, you're gonna have to smash that subscribe button and hit that notification bell. And if you've gotten a lot of value out of this, make sure you give us a like and share our videos with your friends. Yeah, so one of the things that's difficult about stress is when you're under chronic stress, it becomes difficult to see it in yourself and it becomes difficult to remember who that person was who wasn't stressed out, you know? So I think in terms of resilience and stress management, a lot of it is around trying to keep yourself out of that red line area, right? It's like once you cross a certain threshold of chronic stress, it can become much more difficult to ramp yourself back down. So it's not so much about having strategies to use in the moment when you're really stressed, although we can talk about those too. I think overall what we're trying to do with our clients is help people put together a lifestyle, a series of behaviors, you know, make consistent decisions that are gonna help them stay out of that red zone, right? You asked about how can you recognize when you're there. I mean, I think if you're noticing that you're losing your appetite for one thing, you know, if you're not sleeping, like these are physiological markers, right? But like if your physiological physical health is not where it should be, I think that's the first thing that you should notice. And for a lot of people, sleep is a big indicator of clients who say that, you know, they can only get a good night's sleep when they're on vacation from their job. Well, that's a good indication that you're experiencing chronic stress, right? So that's a big one. I think noticing the way you react to people, like, you know, how combative, how irritable can you be? You know, when you're under chronic stress, you are unable to censor yourself, right? You're unable to inhibit those responses that are not necessarily helpful. And we see that like there's a good physical reason for this, right? There's a good biological reason for this. If you think about like the fight, flight or freeze response, right? When an animal is under stress, animal is stressed out, you know, they're gonna be looking for the exits, like that's the fight response or the flight response. The freeze response, you know, feeling overwhelmed and unable to respond, you know, just get small and kind of freeze up, that's a defensive response. And then there's the fight aspect where, you know, you get combative and irritable and kind of like test you with people when you're really stressed out.  The problem for human beings, right? Like we're not just, you know, rats or something, right? Like the problem for human beings with being under stress, aside from health consequences, because I would say that's a whole other thing that there's a lot of misunderstanding about that. What I'll talk to clients about and try and help them understand is that like the problem when you have chronic stress like this is that you can't show up and be the person that you wanna be. You, most of us wanna show up and be someone who is patient and who is kind and who is able to access that charitable empathetic parts of ourself, right? But when we're stressed out, we can't do that. We can't be creative, like that's the other thing. If you look at an animal who is in a very relaxed state, they have a lot of like behavioral, a big wide behavioral repertoire is how you would talk about this in behavioral psychology. They can do a lot of different things. Once that animal gets very stressed out and scared, you know, they're just looking for the exits or whatever it is, very narrow in terms of what they can do and what they can focus on. We live in a world now where we need to be creative to live our lives. We need to have access to like creative thinking. And if we're always in a place of like, okay, how do I just get through this? How do I get through this? How do I get out of this? We're not going to be able to live the lives we want. It's definitely demonstrated through Maslow's hierarchy of needs. When you have those basic needs set and you're feeling good, then your brain has the freedom to start looking at other areas. What things can I make? What things can I do better? Where can I improve? What can I do now outwardly to help other people now that we are taken care of? And I think the other thing that you mentioned there and to be able to understand and see the warning signs before it gets too heavy is having a good base of how you feel when you're at your best and to live in that lane for a while so you know when you're off of it.  I'm not at 100%. I'm a little blurry today or something's not feeling right. I'm a little off because without that, if you live a life that isn't structured and you're perhaps dependent on or doing a lot of drinking for myself and I used to smoke cigarettes, like these things don't allow you to reach at your height, at your best. So it's difficult to gauge whether or not you're off or not. And that makes it easy for stress to compound and then overwhelm you. I agree, like those things will cloud your judgment and again, the more stress you're under the less good your judgment's gonna be, right? Cause you're probably not sleeping as well and eating as well and things like that. So having practices that will lead you back to that person and give you, I always think of like, if you've ever been to Swampland or like a lake or something, they have that depth marker coming up and it says like the water is at like five feet, whatever, when you have practices like meditation, for example, or exercise or journaling where you're gonna do this thing every single day, no matter how you feel, it kind of acts like that marker where you can go, like I'll have days where I sit down and meditate and I'm like, I feel fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.  Like, Jesus, I'm like super anxious today. Like I didn't even realize that. And then once I see it, I can kind of go, all right, what's going on today?  I did not realize I was that irritable or whatever.


Hi and welcome to the session. My name is Priyanka and the question says, find the equations of the tangent and normal to the hyperbola x square upon a square minus y square upon b square is equal to 1 at the point x0, y0. So here we are given equation of the hyperbola as x square upon a square minus y square upon b square equal to 1. Now on differentiating the given equation with respect to x we get 2x upon a square minus 2y upon b square dy by dx equal to 0. That implies now dividing the whole equation by 2 we are left with x upon a square minus y upon b square dy by dx equal to 0. That further implies x upon a square is equal to y upon b square dy by dx. We have the value of dy by dx as b square x upon a square y. Now the value of this dy by dx at the given points that is given to us as x0, y0 will be equal to x0, b square upon y0, a square isn't it? Now since the value of dy by dx at x0, y0 is this. That means this is the slope of the tangent. Since slope of the tangent is this, so slope of the normal is reciprocal to 8 having a minus sign. This is the slope of the tangent and slope of the normal. Since we need to find the equation of the tangent and normal we need to have the slope for both tangent and normal. Now let's proceed by finding the equation of tangent as well as equation of normal. Now here we have y minus y1 that is y0 equal to slope that is x0, b square upon y0, a square x minus x0. Which implies y, y0, a square minus y0, square, a square equal to x, x0, b square minus x0, square, b square. This further gives us on dividing both the sides by x square, sorry, a square, b square we get y, y0, a square minus y0, square, a square divided by a square, b square. And on the other side also this is equal to y0 upon b square minus y square upon b square equal to x, x0 upon a square minus x square upon a square. But we know that x square upon a square minus y square upon b square is equal to 1 and at points x0, y0. So we have, so we have this equal to 1. So this means that x, x0 upon a square minus y, y0 upon b square will be equal to 1. Now this is the equation of the tangent. Now in the same manner we will be finding out equation of the normal. It will be y minus y0 equal to slope of the normal that is found out above as minus a square y0 upon b square x0, x minus x0. This implies b square x0, y minus b square x0, y0 equal to minus a square y0, x plus a square y0, x0. Now this gives us on taking b square x0 common we are left with y minus y0 and here on taking minus a square y0 we are left with x minus x0. Which can be now written as y minus y0 upon a square y0 plus x minus x0 upon b square x0 is equal to 0. This is equation of the normal. So let us write down both the answers we have for tangent. It is x, x0 upon a square minus y, y0 upon b square equal to 1. And equation of the normal is y minus y0 upon a square y0 plus x minus x0 upon b square x0 is equal to 0. So this completes the session. Hope you understood the whole process when you enjoyed it too. Have a nice day ahead.


The Morning Markets Kickoff with your host, Tommy O'Brien. Hey, buddy, I'm Tommy O'Brien, coming to you live from TFNN headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida, 8.30 a.m. Monday morning, one hour to go until the opening bell, and we have a negative market in a pretty dramatic fashion to start things off. Right now, you've got Dow Futures, negative 451 points. You heard it correctly, that's more than 1.5% in the red, trading at $28,482. S&P Futures, negative by 49 right now, that's 1.5% as well, trading $32,44. NASDAQ Futures leading the way down off 162 points, that's about 1.8% in the red, trading at $89.82, it's a NASDAQ 100. Oil, negative $1.49, the oil slide continues on a growth concern, having to do with the coronavirus in China, and that's spreading across the globe. Oil down at $1.49 or 2.7% at $52.70, bonds trading higher in price, lower in yield the 10-year, 1.62% as the safe haven of bonds is where investors seem to be flocking to. And we're going to start things off this morning with the Volatility Index. As you may expect, markets opening up between 1.5% to almost 2% in the red. You have the extension of the fear on Friday, pretty remarkable that we go from almost a 12-handle on Thursday. We almost hit a 19-handle at about 6 a.m. this morning, 1876, the high on that Volatility Index, 1845 currently, with 1 hour to go until the opening bell. Let's jump over to the markets. We'll start things off with the Dow. We'll back it up to last night, and you can see the jump. Things began right away. Futures open at about 28,613 in the Dow, and we've extended those losses. The slide is about 3.30 in the morning. We go from 28,690. We're currently sitting right near the lows 28,484. S&P 500, pretty similar action. We open at about 3253. We're now about 10 points below that level, 3243. The low overnight, 6 a.m., 3236. NASDAQ 100, the NASDAQ, the leader in negative territory, we open at about 9,011. We make it all the way down to 8,944, currently trading 8,975. There's your crude oil market, pretty similar action. We closed last week at 5,429. Keeping things in context, folks, you back it up. We were almost at $60 to begin last week. This week, 5,269, we actually made it down as low as 5,216, almost got a 51 handle on the price of March crude. Gold catching a bid made it as high as 1585 at 6 a.m. last night. When we opened, we were up at 1587 last night, Sunday, 6 p.m. in the February Gold Future and the Euro-US Dollar trading at 1,1028. All of this having to do with the Wuhan coronavirus, more than 2,860 cases now confirmed that death toll rising to 81 people on Monday. Chinese Premier visited the epicenter of the outbreak. You now have China extending the lunar holiday. Their market's going to be closed until February 3rd. That is a week from today. You have an—and to get into it, we now have 2,862 cases, the death toll rising to 81. Pretty remarkable over there. In terms of what else you have happening in the market. This sinking to the 41—excuse me—410 points. The Dow 438 points at one point is where it was. China is the biggest driver of global growth, so this couldn't have started at a worse place in terms of just the number of people. The stocks that you look to in terms of biggest action this morning—we'll jump over the charts in a moment—airline stocks, American and Delta, both down about 3 percent pre-market united 3.2. Of course, stocks like Las Vegas Sands and the wind relying on Macau, 7.2 and 5.8 respectively, MGM down about 3 percent, travel stocks, Expedia, Carnival, Marriott all pull back at least more than 2 percent, consumer shares with exposure to China, Apple, Disney, Nike, Estee Lauder dropping 1.9, Caterpillar, a bellwether for global growth, 2.3 percent, jumping over to some of those charts as we pull it up. We'll jump to the airline stocks first. United, looking to open at about 78.85, closed at 81.90. Delta, DAL, looking to open at about 56.50, closed at 58.81. We'll jump over to Apple, closed at 3.18.31, made it as low as 308.59, now at about 3.11.75. Boeing, Boeing dealing with their own woes, they had a plane that supposedly went down—believe it was in, not sure, but there was a Boeing that potentially went down—Boeing, out with their earnings on Wednesday, they'll have a conference call, they have a lot to answer for outside of the coronavirus in terms of the 737 Macs, they'll be dealing with their own woes, their earnings on Wednesday under their new CEO, a huge week this week in earnings overall. We get 145 stocks this week alone of the 500 S&P stocks. Some of those stocks, as we pull it up right now, we'll jump over. And here we are. So DR Horton, they're already out with their earnings, I believe. DHI, let's jump to them this morning. And there's the action. You actually had DH Horton spiking to 60.26, pulling back now under the close of 58.51 you had on Friday. We also had Sprint earnings this morning, delivering some subscriber growths, but looking to be pretty much where we were in terms of closing it Friday at 483, Sprint right now trading right at 483. The rest of the week, some of the bigger stocks out there, you got Tomorrow, 3M, Harley Davidson, Lockheed Martin, Pfizer, United Technologies, AMD, Apple, eBay, Starbucks, Xilinx after the close, Wednesday, Anthem, AT&T, Boeing, as we mentioned, Dow, MasterCard, McDonald's before the open, Facebook, Microsoft, Mondaliz, PayPal, Tesla, I mean, it's a huge week in tech and a huge week just overall. You got Apple Tuesday, as we mentioned, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon on Wednesday as well. Ah, excuse me, Amazon on Thursday, Biogen, Coke, Eli Lilly, General Electric, Hershey, UPS, Valero, Verizon before the open on Thursday, Visa. Some of those credit card companies will jump over to those in a moment. They're getting hit hard, especially as well in terms of growth concerns. People not able to spend money as they're just basically curtailing that growth because of the virus. And Friday, Caterpillar, Colgate, Palmolive, Chevron, Exxon before the open, jumping over to some of them. As I mentioned, Visa, as you'd expect, closed at 205 down about 2.5% at 200.60. American Express, with their earnings last week, great earnings Friday morning, but the coronavirus fears curtailing some of that profit as they spiked to 138.13 on Friday. As the market started to pull back on Friday, you saw a lot of those gains paired, and it looks like American Express is going to give back almost all of those gains back to where we closed at Thursday. They came out with their earnings. You see it on the Thinker Swim platform, we're looking to open about 132.04 this morning on American Express and some of the other bigger stocks out there. Earning this morning, closed at 140.08, looking to open 136.36, Nike shares, 102.03, looking to open under 100 to 99.49, McDonald's I mentioned, earnings this week, closed at 211.24, looking to open at about 207.50, no matter where you look in this market, folks, with indices down between 1.5% to 2%, red across the board, fears gripping, the markets will be right back, folks. If you're in the CD market and looking for a secure investment, the Tiger First mortgage program may work for you. The security for these first mortgages are building lots in the tax opportunity zone in St. Petersburg, Florida. The Tax Act of 2018 set up tax-free zones across the country where you can build and hold for 10 years and pay no tax on the profits, which makes these lots valuable. The investment is anywhere from $30,000 to $75,000. The interest paid is 7% yearly paid on a monthly basis. According to bankrate.com, the best rate for a four-year CD in the country as of February 20th is 3.1%. A $50,000 investment at a normal four-year CD rate of 3.1% would give you income of $1,550 per year or $6,200 over the four-year period. That same $50,000 investment in the Tiger First mortgage program would give you $3,500 per year or $14,000 over the four years. What should you prefer, $6,200 or $14,000 of interest on your investment? If you would like more information about the Tiger First mortgage program, you can call me at<PHONE_NUMBER>.

Folks, checking in on markets right where we started off, dial off about 450 points. S&P futures negative by 49 right now, NASDAQ futures negative by 162 points. Oil in the negative, we'll jump to that chart. Hang it out, 52.59, you're the gold spike higher to 15.87 overnight. And we're going to jump to yields. As Treasury yields falls to the lowest since October. As a flight to safety, a flight to the bonds, the note market, have Treasury yields falling to the lowest since October. I heard this morning you have the yield curve flattening to now just 18 ticks between where the two-year and the 10-year getting into it. Here's your two-year, 1.45%. You have the 10-year now, 1.62. That's actually 17 ticks as the curve. You see the flattening, three months, 1.52, the year 1.52, you get a dip in terms of the two-year and the five-year down to about 1.45 and then you're back up to about 1.62. But that difference between the two-year, 1.45 and the 10-year, as you've really seen that 10-year pullback pretty strongly as there's been just a flight to safety. As people pull money out of the markets, flight to safe haven, risk off as they call it in the markets. So, the 10-year note, 1.6194, the 30-year bond also lower 2.076, 10-year Treasury yield touched a low of 1.603% this morning. And in terms of other news we have happening this week, so we covered the earning sector in terms of the economic calendar. New home sales coming out this morning. We have Dallas Fed manufacturing, that's the other thing we haven't touched on. It is Fed week, folks, lost in all of this. It would be interesting to see in terms of what Jerome Powell cut, not even priced in remotely, but boy, oh, boy, if we get a huge acceleration, if we get dramatic growth fears gripping the market, I wonder if that will play into the Fed meeting coming in the first one in January. That begins tomorrow. An announcement due on Tuesday and there will be, excuse me, an announcement due on Wednesday and there will be a press conference. Tuesday, durable goods, December preliminary, 0.9% expected, 2.1 negative being the prior. Durable goods transportation, jumping to Wednesday, MBA mortgage applications, wholesale inventories month-to-month, pending home sales. Thursday, we get GDP quarter-on-quarter, fourth quarter, 2.2 expected, 2.1% expected, 2.2% was the third quarter reading. You get personal consumption, PCI, core PCE, quarter-on-quarter, lots of numbers coming out. Of course, you get continuing claims, jobless claims, initial claims, week ended, and then employer cost index, personal income in December. So lots of numbers coming out this week. And I mentioned it before and there is the headline that there was Boeing main passenger plane crashing in Afghanistan it was. So that hitting Boeing shares this morning as well. And we got to mention it pretty sad story over the weekend. I'm sure you may have heard about it. It's pretty remarkable that you can almost assume everybody has heard about it because the man was such a legend. Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, who is 13 and seven others dying in a helicopter crash in California yesterday. That news reverberating around the globe yesterday. Sad story, quite an amazing man legend in the world of basketball and also remarkable that he was in the news the day before because LeBron James had just passed him for number three in the all-time scoring. So when people started to see that headline, it was kind of like, is this for real? And sure enough, sadly enough, it was. Life is short, folks. Pretty remarkable, sad. Kobe Bryant dead at the age of 41 as of yesterday and lots of sadness and lots of tributes paid to him in the games yesterday. There are 24, a lot of the games going on with the 24 shot clock, second shot clock expiring in remembrance of Kobe Bryant. Back to the markets, J&J. So as we proceed in this coronavirus, Johnson & Johnson, chief scientific officer said he believes the drugmaker can create a vaccine in the coming months, boy, oh boy, months. I mean, this is where things get dicey. We've seen an escalation now where I believe on Friday when we started things off. There were 400 to 600 confirmed cases. We kick off Monday morning with 2,860 cases. We began Friday morning to put things in context with one confirmed case in the U.S. I believe we start off Monday morning with five confirmed cases now in the U.S. Months, that could get pretty dicey if it takes months, but that's, I imagine, even quick in terms of how a virus vaccine could be created. You have Johnson & Johnson, chief scientific officer. Now again, he's, of course, going to be touting his own skills, keep this in context. But they have dozens of scientists working on this, so we're pretty confident we can get something made that will work, stay active for the longer term. We'll see in the next few weeks how this goes. Chinese officials said there are now more than 2,800 cases of the flu-like coronavirus. One of the most—one of the scariest things about this virus is that it reportedly has a two-week incubation period, that you could be a carrier for two weeks, not even know it, not show symptoms, and be spreading the virus. That is pretty scary, to say the least. Most countries are also reporting coronavirus cases, including the U.S., which on Sunday confirmed the fifth, as I mentioned. The new strain comes from a large family of viruses known as coronavirus. This strain, though, brand new, they are known to cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as the outbreak of SARS, which was now about 17 years ago, 2002 to 2003. This gentleman said the pharmaceutical company needed to start from scratch on this vaccine, much like how it operated in the Zika outbreak, though Johnson & Johnson could shave two to three months off of that due to technological advances. We're going to take an approach with at least five different constructs and different partners and collaborations over the world in order to see which part of that virus we can use to make an effective vaccine, and hopefully they have some success. Several companies, including Disney, are suspending operations. You have Disney Shanghai closing. You have McDonald's and Starbucks closing stores across Asia. Also, temporary ban in wild animals in China as China just really tries to reverberate things to kind of clamp down on that market, jumping over to some of those stocks in particular. Mickey D's, excuse me, 207.41. You see the slide from even Friday, 214. And we mentioned Starbucks, SBUX as well. It was up to 94.28 at the beginning of Friday. Looks like we're going to have an 89 handle to start things off this morning on Starbucks. Checking back in on the VIX as things reverberate, 1846. VIX just kind of hanging there right now on that market. And Netflix this morning, jumping around. Netflix actually getting an upgrade, still trading lower. But Netflix getting an upgrade on the fact that cord cutting is accelerating. And I would have to agree with that just fundamentally. Myself, I cord cut myself. And I got Netflix, you got Prime. I might get Disney Plus, the Hulu, the ESPN Plus streaming service. Netflix, quite a pop on Thursday and Friday, traded from 323.30, all the way up to almost 360 at the beginning of Friday, now back to about 345. And in terms of high flyers, got to check on the biggest high flyer of the mall recently. Tesla made up to 594.50 as of Wednesday, backing off a bit. You now have Tesla this morning, looking at about 539.74, but putting Tesla in context, folks. Even, let's just back it up 20 days. How about that? We were almost at 400, almost made it up to 600, let alone if you back this up even 180, you were down in June at 176. The run really began when we were back in about October 23rd at $252, in the span of a heartbeat, you were above 300. And you haven't even looked back. And then you back it up to about December 5th from 330, and you almost doubled the price of the stock of Tesla from $326 when we were out there at about December 5th, now trading 539.50 this morning in Tesla.
