PEDAC 2023, we're on the floor with Nicole Brewster from Renforth. How are you today? I'm great. Thanks. How are you? I'm so delighted that Neil has brought us back together so we can have an opportunity to find out what is Renforth up to and what are your goals here at PEDAC? Yeah, no, it's great to see you again. Renforth has a spectacular Boutery Metals property in Quebec's near north. 29 kilometers of mineralization, plus more we haven't proven yet. And what am I doing at PEDAC? Just telling my story. That's all I can do. I'm my own largest shareholder, I'm my own biggest fan, but I want to share the news with everyone and perhaps find new shareholders and just pure marketing.  There's a lot of investors, there's only so many investors on the tarmac. What makes your company competitive? What would you say is the reason why Renforth is the company you should pull up your sleeves and learn more about it and maybe come on board? Well, first and foremost we're not looking for the mineralization, we have it. We have two structures, we've ground-truthed and drilled. The first one's 20 kilometers, drilled over 2.2 kilometers. This is an ultramafic with nickel, cobalt, platinum group elements, along with fingers of a VMS giving us zinc, copper, silver and gold. Four kilometers north of that, same property, it's 330 square kilometer property. Four kilometers north, a longer band we see in the magnetics, however we've only ground-truthed 9 kilometers, we've only drilled about 500 meters. So we're growing, we'll be drilling in a couple of weeks. It sets us apart, in my opinion we're ultra active, we're in the field, we're putting the money in the ground, the marketing is pretty much me, what you see is what you get anyway so you may as well see it, right? But I'm aggressive in terms of trying to, I think I hear a clock ticking. I hear the opportunity. It's not about having the minerals, it's also in this business about having them at the right time, and the time is definitely now. We're brownfield, we're beside Canada's largest open pit gold mine, mineralization is on surface, we will build an open pit forward-looking statement, but in the future, that's what I see happening. You know, we've got hydroelectric power, we've got roads on the property, first nation relationship is good, no big bodies of water, no people, no animals at risk, we're beside mining towns. You couldn't operate cheaper than we operate, and that's going to be, right now, having seen as little as we have, I would tell you we have a large-scale, low-grade nickel sulfide polymetallic. You get that mouthful out of the way. In there, we've got nickel that's coming out at around 0.25%, but we've drilled 3.4% nickel, but we're drilling structure, we're literally just drilling structure, not grade. What does that mean? Our grades could go up, for sure they could go up. And even if they don't go up, with all our logistical advantage, being in Quebec, our security of title, it's wholly owned, it's not encumbered, our bar, to be a mine, is probably as low as it could be. And I'm excited about that. I think that's a huge advantage. Well that's here at PDAC 2023 on day one, Nicole. Thank you so much for joining us today. It was my pleasure. Thank you.


Welcome back to another LPM 101 class. My name is Megan. I'm the video producer and editor here at LPM and I'm so excited to talk about one of my favorite aspects of video creation which is lighting. So to jump right in we're going to be discussing the basic three-point lighting system which includes the key light, the fill light, and the back light. The key light is going to be your primary and brightest source of light. It sets the overall exposure for your shot and all the other lights are really there to complement it. The key light is typically placed to the side of the camera, lighting the front of the subject at a 45 degree angle from the camera as shown here. Now at this point in your setup light is only hitting one side of your subject. That's where we have to add others to create a more evenly lit subject or to balance out that key light. This is where your second light, the fill light, comes in. The fill is going to mirror the key. It's placed on the opposite side of the camera to fill out the shadows that the key makes. This light is typically not as bright as the key light but that also does depend on the mood you're going for within your piece. A dimmer light is going to show more dimension and more shadows while a brighter light is going to give you more even coverage of light. And you know sometimes a fill light isn't even a light. It can be a reflector, a bounce card, a white wall, just really anything that that key light can bounce off of and just fill those shadows that are coming in the opposite direction. But we'll get into that a little bit later. Next we're going to be talking about our back or hair light and it does essentially what the name says. It's on the subject from behind creating a sort of halo effect around the crown of the head. A good backlight will create a rim of light behind the subject separating them from their background and giving the shot a greater sense of depth. Another great light to add, which now makes it a four-point lighting scheme, is the background light. So that's different from the back light or the hair light because you are lighting the background space. So if you see there is a light shining on my background here to give me a little more depth and to separate me even further from my background. So if I am closer to my background that might be a great light to add. Once you've got the basics down it's kind of fun to play around with the different things you can do with lighting and soon you'll notice that a lot of films use lighting to convey a certain mood or tone to the piece. That's because light can add or subtract humanity in our minds. Think about your favorite movie series. My personal favorite is The Dark Knight. Now a lot of darker, more low-key lighting scenes are used in this movie as you can see here. This is used to create a more dramatic tone which is really what you want in a superhero or action film such as this one. Now let's talk about old-school horror films. You ever see this lighting scheme? This is a classic. It's used to distort the face, make it look more menacing and exaggerate the features. And it's used time and time and time and time again to kind of subtract humanity to make you scared, to make you feel something and to convey that sort of mood. And you can do this with your projects too. Now something else you might want to consider with lighting is the color of the light that you use which is also used to convey mood or tone. Think about the movie Slumdog Millionaire. Yellow is used a lot in that movie whenever the main character is around his love. It's used in the beginning when they are children and at the end when they reunite, I'm sorry if I just spoiled that movie for you but it's very old. But anyway they use a lot of yellow to give you the sense that whenever yellow is around this character is happier or this is the destination that the main character is trying to get to. If blue is used it's often to convey a more sad or somber moment. And the more you think about color and how it makes you feel the more you'll start to realize how color is used to manipulate how you think about films and videos and how you can use it too to convey any sort of mood that you're trying to get across in a more subtle and creative way. Since lighting is arguably one of the most important parts of video productions but not all of us have access to all of the different lighting sources that we may want to use let's talk about some ways you can fake good lighting in your production. First use sunlight. Sunlight is one of the best available light sources that you're going to come across. It's harsh it's direct you can dilute it if you use diffuser use a sheet let's something over a window but that is going to be one of your greatest key lights if you don't have access to an actual light source. Next use reflectors as I previously spoke about fill lights reflectors are anything that light can bounce off of you can find them in your home a white wall is always a great reflector white loves to bounce light off of it while black likes to absorb it so anything white is a great reflector and can be used as a fill light so say you are working with sunlight sunlight is coming through the window bouncing off of a white wall opposite of it you have a great two point light scheme right there. Also something you might not think about is aluminum foil aluminum foil is very shiny it likes to bounce light off of it too if you don't have that white wall or white foam board you can use aluminum foil easily as a nice fill light. Next is changing the settings of your ISO or gain on your actual camera now ISO or gain is essentially pumping artificial light onto your subject so if you're in a really dark area and you can't find a light source you might want to pump up the ISO on your camera to add some artificial light back into the shot so you're able to see but you have to be careful with this anything above an ISO of I would say 800 tends to add a lot of noise or grain into your photo or video which if you're not going for that look and you might not want to pump that up and lastly would be editing your lighting in post but it's always best to get it done right in production so you don't have that headache in post production. There's so much more to learn about lighting and there's really no right or wrong way to do it but it is important to learn the basics. Thanks for watching and let us know if you want to learn more about the ins and outs of lightings but until then it's lights out.


Hello and welcome this video is part of a series be sure to check out the description of this video for the full playlist I recommend watching the previous videos this video I think 15 or so on using Eureka doom editor to create dooms or levels for dooms or levels for dooms levels or maps for doom And doom 2 and a few other games Today, we're gonna be looking at so far. We've created a lot of very straight rooms square rooms rectangular rooms Let's work on creating a round room a circular room So let's say I wanted to create a sector a room that was round. I can try To create something like that.  Let's go ahead and undo that Let's just say let's take an existing sector right here this first sector here I'm gonna split my grid with the number six here What I'm gonna do is I'm just gonna add in some extra vertices right now We only have four and you the smoother circle you want the more vertices you want So I'm just gonna left click left click left click left click and I'm just gonna put extra vertices all the way around This sector on the grid where there are not any vertices already Perfect now I'm gonna go into sector mode and choose that sector go back into vertices mode to make sure I have all these vertices selected, but I'm gonna unselect the ones from our teleporter We don't want those right now and all I have to do is hit shift and the letter o and It turns what I have selected into a perfect circle or at least as close as you can get with that many vertices If we go ahead and save and test that with control s control t you can see it is now a round room Perfect. Let's say we wanted to create a pillar in the middle of that room That is circular because in the past we did something like this And then we deleted that sector and that gave us a Square pillar in the middle of the room. Let's go ahead and the same process works Let's control z to undo that a little bit. I'll make my grid a little bit smaller Using again the number row and the top there or of course you can use the drop down here And I'm going to go overseas and I can add them in Now or I could have done this when I created this little sector We'll do both ways Adverse is there. I will select that sector go v and then just shift Oh, and now we have a round sector, which is currently invisible But I can select that sector hit delete and now if I start the game up control s control t. There we go We have this Little pillar there now This texture doesn't really matter. Let's go ahead and change the texture of that L for lines and I'll select those and I'll give it something With a little more detail on it. We'll just do something like this And although that that looks pretty neat that's not what that texture supposed to look like. Let's see I'm trying to pick something that looks Here like this with the window, let's see how this works out This one may or may not work out depending on the size of my pillar but again with those lines like that I can hit shift a and it will adjust the texture to Line up properly and right there. We got a double window, but it lined it up pretty good If I wanted all the windows to be the same size, I'd have to adjust the size of my pillar but something like this, you know, I can hit shift a a couple times and If you keep hitting shift a and it keeps on wibbly wobbling like that That means it's not lining up perfect. It's going to continuously try it will never create a perfect texture Alignment, but in certain cases like this, I don't see where it's not lining up with this particular texture You can do something like this again shift a it's going to continuously try and I don't even see most textures you probably won't notice where it's off this one maybe No, that still looks pretty good, but again before I did that these textures looked very funky But shift a will align them. I said it a couple of times if you need to So again, let's do that again by this time. I'll just create Again in vertices mode and I'm hitting spacebar to add new vertices that are connected with lines and Then with those vertices selected I'll hit shift o the letter o s to choose that Well, I don't have to delete it if I want maybe a table there. I have sector selected Let's go into our 3d preview here. I'll just hit the period a couple times Bring this down Again, I can adjust my wall textures if I want that particular texture. It looks okay but if I wanted to I can go into line mode and Choose something Like this this this this might look a little yeah, so those boxes if I hit shift a now It's going to line that although that's a weird texture to have on a round room since it's like a box texture But there you go. It lines it up for you and again in sector mode. I can choose a different Ceiling and ground texture for that little round room there again, I turned a Square room into a round room, but you can also do that. I'll even go into free mode here and just start oops V for her disease mode and then I hit shift o once I connect all those and we'll make a round room for me so I don't need that room that sector and Let's say I did something like this let's go ahead and these With things I can also shift o Or not. I thought shift o would align those up in a circular pattern I was wrong about that ignore the last 10 seconds of this tutorial So that's creating round rooms, but let's talk about creating Staircases that are curved not necessarily fully round so I could let's expand this room over here a little bit I'll just move this wall up. Let's uh Turn snap to grid back on by hitting F. I'll just make this room a little bigger Like so So I could create something like this if I wanted hit shift o and then inside there I can add some more vertices And then hit shift o now these two circles have different number of faces But that's okay for what we're doing if I move my 3d view into here. I can now Make a little, you know Stare well going down kind of like an amphitheater type thing Let's say I just want to curve not a full circle. Let's go ahead and work on that next So I will move this room down here and make this room a little larger What we're gonna do is we're gonna want to get a rough idea of what we want our Curved stairway to look like or doesn't have to be a stairway It could just be a curved wall. We don't want a full circle wall We want a curved wall but the same thing applies if you're making a stairway you just make different sectors for the different stairs but just to Not make this video go too long. We'll just create a wall here. I'm gonna go free mode here and I'm going to try to do the same number of vertices on the top as I did the bottom and just eyeball a little curve wall And obviously that looks horrible, but what I can do now is I can now select some of these the top half and Instead of hitting shift O which would try to make that a circle I can hit shift C and it makes it a 120 degree I believe curve is what it does Now select the bottom Verses here and again, I will hit Shift C and now I have this curve here. I'm going to my view here and in sector mode Make sure I have that sector selected Period a couple times and now I have a nicely curved wall Very nice. Okay Again, if you wanted curved stairs you would just cut this into Different sectors Choose all those sectors Sometimes sectors get messed up and that's something I'm going to talk about in the next video Like right now I have this these last two sectors just aren't letting me select them Yeah, there's just something not right about that and let me just go ahead and See if I can manually fix this just by deleting these right now. It's probably gonna mess things up more Yeah, this sector is all types of messed up. So let's just go ahead and Choose all these and delete them I'm gonna talk more about fixing errors like that in a future video That's not why I'm not talking about now But that's how you would create stairs if you didn't screw up the sectors like I did which sometimes happens And I'm not sure why other times I get why but luckily Eureka doom editor has a built-in thing that tries to fix things like that for you So let's end this video here and in the next video. We'll talk about fixing errors Yeah, thank you for watching. Please is films by Chris calm That's Chris the K. There's a link in the description of video and as always I hope that you have a great day


from the Fokker-Planck equation that is the Claim Cramer's equation, we can determine the evolution of the probabilities of Brownian particles under any situation including external forces in time and in space as well as in velocity. For that sometimes it is quite useful to carry out some non-dimensional non-dimensionalization of the space, time and velocity variables from within the existing parameters. As you can see we derived this following equation in the previous lecture d W by dt plus V the velocity d W by dx plus the external force d W by dV equal to gamma by 2 d 2 W by dV square plus beta d by dV of V W. We in fact can combine these two in by taking the d by dV out, but here we write explicitly. So, specifically let us say fx equal to 0 no external force it is a free particle it is not necessary to do that, but this is just as in illustration. Then the equation takes the form d W by dt plus V d W by dx equal to gamma by 2 d 2 W by dV square plus beta d by dV of V W. This is a second order equation both in velocity and a first order in space somewhat interesting because if you go back to the Fokker-Planck equation that was second order in space and that second order term accounted for diffusion. Here the second order is in velocity and the therefore, it is basically referring to diffusion in velocity space that is what Brownian motion is that diffusion in velocity space is going to introduce randomness in excess space via a first order coupling. So, mathematically it is somewhat not so obvious how one gets a Fokker-Planck equation for example, from this and it is a bit of an advanced kind of an exercise to perform that, but right now we work with how we can make this equation look simpler. So, for that we note that when we have put force equal to 0 we have basically 2 parameters gamma and beta and they are not all unrelated and we have this thing to note that beta is basically kt by f as we said beta is sorry beta is f by m and gamma equal to 2 beta kt by m where m is the mass of the particle kt is the temperature f is the friction coefficient etcetera. Beta has a dimension of reciprocal time and hence 1 by beta provides a natural time scale for the system. So, we define natural time length and velocity scales that is the way we always non-dimensionalize. First we should look for what are the natural scales. One thing is obvious that the tau relaxation or the characteristic time let us say Tc, c always represents the characteristic scale that can be 1 by beta. The for the velocity v it is a characteristic velocity is the thermal velocity it is always root kt by m that provides the natural velocity. Now the once we have a characteristic time and a characteristic velocity we can generate a characteristic length. Hence a characteristic length lc that is going to be it is a product of velocity into time vc Tc meter per second and per second. So, it is automatically generated. So, with that we can scale these are characteristic scales. With that we can generate for example, the term gamma can now be expressed because it is 2 beta kt by m which is going to be vc square by Tc and now we define dimensionless variables. Normally we write it as a x star right. So, you can say for example, velocity let us start with the velocity first. Velocity dimensionless velocity is true velocity divided by the characteristic velocity. But somehow to avoid tediousness in writing we do not use a star, but let us say I decide we use u when we say u which means it is dimensionless velocity v. Similarly now we define a dimensionless length you can call it x star which is x divided by characteristic length which we already defined. But again for ease of writing I call it as xi. Similarly T star the characteristic time the scaled time dimensionless time is a true time divided by the characteristic time scale. Again for ease of writing I call it as tau. So, these are dimensionless variables of the problem. If we substitute these things, if we substitute these characteristic times eliminate beta v x t gamma by 2 exactly in terms of all these variables all the hanging the parameters cancel out. The entire equation is an exercise that you should do to get the feeling the entire equation takes a form free of any parameter it is becomes an easy to remember in the dimensionless u the probability density expressed in terms of these quantities instead of x we said it is going to be xi which is the dimensionless length scale that becomes d 2 w by d u square plus d w d by d w of u w. It is a very elegant looking one dimensional equation for free particle you know this cannot be done very generally or universally when there is a force field. If you know the force field it is dependence on x again of course, the same scaling you can introduce and you can write down, but it may also have its own length scales. So, there will be new length scales will develop. So, that is a matter of detail which we do not take up now. So, this is non-dimensionalized KKE non-dimensional claim climbers equation specifically for f x equal to 0 it has no hanging parameters now everything is in non-dimensional form. For a free particle we should specify the domains or xi domain could be the real physical space domain the velocity domain of course, it will be again minus infinity to infinity and of course, the time is always positive. So, these are also an additional thing with that we can note. Being a second order in space as being a second order in velocity we one may wonder that we may need boundary conditions two boundary conditions on velocity, but by virtue of the fact that velocity the domain of velocity includes infinity and generally in most problems velocity cannot be controlled from outside its domain cannot be regulated and then the velocity at large values cannot occur very frequently and they should decay down hence W will be assumed to tend to 0 when velocity tends to either plus infinity or minus infinity. So, a natural this equation therefore, has a natural boundary condition in the velocity space all that one might have to provide are the initial conditions or the boundary conditions in the position and time space. Let us develop some simple solutions most of the solutions we have attained in some way we have obtained in our exercises earlier, but this is basically reassertion of the same via the Klein Kramer's equation. So, let us consider case one solutions some solutions to Klein Kramer's equation. Let us consider case one equilibrium solution. So, when we say a system is in equilibrium there should be no flux of any type and there should be no change in time and hence equilibrium by definition means d by dt or for that matter d by d tau in our new variable this should be 0. Similarly, there should be no space change which basically implies that d by d psi should be 0.  So, first integral can be easily executed.  Now what is the how do you determine this constant? Here we invoke the fact that I just mentioned that the domain of velocity includes minus infinity and plus infinity and since this is supposed to be constant across all velocities the if you determine the value at one velocity that should be sufficient and we know that when velocity is infinity when u tends to plus minus infinity both w and d w by d u should tend to 0 and in fact, w should tend to 0 much faster than any power when that is required because we need to have moments of w that is why. So, in other words even u w will go to 0. Once we invoke this condition it implies hence K has to be 0. So, this brings us to the next level of simplicity one has this equation d w by d y d u u w equal to 0. The first order equation I simply write the solution w equal to w u now we can call it as w infinity maybe subscript w infinity u some constant e to the power minus u square by 2 the non-dimensional way and let us recall u was a non-dimensional expression for the true velocity in terms of the characteristic velocity and characteristic velocity was root KT by m where vc was root KT by m. Hence w infinity in terms of the true velocity will be somewhere constant a e to the power minus m v square by 2 KBT. It is always put KB for the Boltzmann constant because not to confuse with many case we use. So, this basically means now a will be determined a determined by normalization of the probability by integral w infinity d v should be 1 which of course will give you an expression in terms of KT and m. So, with that we can so that leads us to w infinity v after you do that basically will be root of square root of m by 2 pi KBT e to the power minus m v square by 2 where T is the temperature. So, this equation there is nothing new in this this only guarantees that the equation we derived is consistent with the physics that we started because this is the well known Maxwell Boltzmann distribution and also is consistent with the principle of equipartition of energy etcetera. It will reproduce all the results that we had used from basic equilibrium principles in obtaining the second moments etcetera of the Langevin dynamics. Let us however go a little further let us take to a now a little more complicated problem that is where now particle starts with an initial velocity. It is not an equilibrium solution it is a non equilibrium situation with an initial velocity v naught or in the u space u naught, but it is homogeneous in space. You can imagine a situation that particles are distributed homogeneous in space, but all of them have a particular velocity that is we continue to hold that d by dx is 0, but w therefore it is a function of v at a time 0 is delta let us say we are working with the u variable. So, we can straight away write it for u variable as that u minus u naught particles is projected at some velocity u naught, but homogeneous in space. So, the equation now is a same equation, but it does have time dependence d w by d tau has the right hand side d by d u of u w with the initial condition that w u at tau equal to 0 is delta u minus u naught. This equation looks similar to the Fokker-Planck equation in position space or what we call as diffusion equation, but it is not. So, mainly because of this term this adds a certain level of complexity and it is definitely of theoretical interest to develop skills to solve this kind of linear equations. It has been already done, but just to illustrate how such things are done, we quickly go through the method of Fourier transforms which is very useful. So, as usual apply Fourier transform simply call it as f t. So, by definition we know that there is a conjugate variable for velocity. For velocity we do the Fourier transforming time remains the same. So, velocity goes over and by definition it is integrated over u and conjugate to u is going to be k and my distribution function becomes transformed to 1 with a carrot now. So, with this definition the thing that we are familiar is that the Fourier transform of the second order term is well known. We have seen that Fourier transform of the second derivative it is going from u to k that is what we are going to do. This Fourier transform is simply minus k square Fourier transform of the density itself which is a function of k and tau. This is known. So, the question or some exercise that one has to do is what is the Fourier transform of the second term that is d by d u of u w. So, this term requires some exercise for that we note that this is basically minus infinity to infinity by definition i k u then d by d u of u w integrated over all u. Do an integrating factor method integrate this and also integrate the second term and differentiate this term then apply the limits for the first part and those limits will disappear because limits will lead to the function to go to 0 and then one is left for left with only the second term which is minus of when you differentiate you are going to get i k here and then the integral will be e to the power i k u and this integral is going to be u w d u. So, this part is quite fine, but how do I do this because it is not just w it is u w for that. So, to do that we note that if we differentiate the definition since w carrot is given as integral e to the power i k u w d u if I differentiate with respect to k I am allowed to do because it is a function of k then I will have by d k for example then u will come here and i will come out.  So, f t of u w is the minus i d w by d k and when we put all of them together in the Fokker-Planck equation we get a nice looking first order equation.   So, when we combine all that we obtain in the transformed space a first order equation that is the beauty of Fourier transforms it is going to be minus k square w cap minus k d w by d k or I can take this to the LHS right d w by d tau plus k d w by d k equal to minus k square w. So, it is the partial differential equation now it has become first order partial differential equation from the second order. So, there is a advantage this first order equations are generally solved by the method of characteristics and well to do that we need some initial condition and in view of the fact that we have this initial condition we can apply it over to the transformed variable which is nothing but integral e to the power i k u delta u minus u naught d u which is e to the power i k u naught. So, we have this system now which is completely determined to which we have to find a solution for that we use method of characteristics or a new variable we will find out or transformations in many ways the first order. The simplest way is to go to a new set of transformations say new variables in from the old variables k and tau where the old variables we go to new variables eta and tau prime. So, if you choose this eta is this and of course, the tau prime let us say is the same as tau, but just because it is a new coordinate system we put a prime to it with this these are the new variables. Then if you do a transformation for example, then use things like this we need d by d tau. So, d by d tau is going to be d by d tau prime d tau prime by d tau plus in terms of the new variables it is d by d eta d eta by d tau etcetera. Similarly, d by d k is going to be d by d tau prime d tau prime by d k partial plus d by d eta d eta by d k. And one thing we notice this is 0 and this is 1 and this of course, can be easily expressed by differentiating eta with respect to tau which is going to be k e to the power minus tau itself and minus sign will come. So, it will be minus eta this will become minus eta. So, likewise we can we need d eta by d k and d eta by d k is simply e to the power minus tau prime this will be e to the power minus tau or tau prime. So, when we put all these transformations the equation actually cancels many terms cancels one gets a very simple equation d w by d tau prime. Now in terms of this variable simply minus of eta square e to the power 2 tau prime w cap in terms of eta tau variables. So, we can integrate this noting that this is a function of eta and tau and it is a partial derivative. So, when we integrate this we will get w eta tau prime is going to be some unknown function it can be a function of eta can easily verify and it will be minus eta square by 2 e to the power 2 tau prime or go back to the original variables go back to k tau and then this attains the form w carat k tau will be the unknown function c will be a function of k e to the power minus tau e to the power minus k square by 2. Here c is unknown function. Now the unknown function we determined by the initial condition since we know that since w cap k 0 is e to the power i k u naught by putting tau equal to 0 we simply obtain c k therefore, is going to be e to the power i k u naught plus k square by 2 or c k e to the power minus tau which is what we want is going to be e to the power i u naught k e to the power minus tau plus k square by 2 e to the power minus 2 tau with all that. So, finally, our solution therefore, is going to be k tau equal to e to the power i u naught k e to the power minus tau minus minus k square by 2 into 1 minus e to the power minus 2 tau. Now formally the solution is obtained in the k tau space we have to do inversion from k to real velocity u. So, since it is a Gaussian integral inversion we know and we leave it to that. So, when we do that final inversion we get the probability density distribution w u tau equal to 1 by square root of 2 pi into 1 minus e to the power minus 2 tau e to the power minus of u minus u naught e to the power minus tau whole square divided by twice of 1 minus e to the power minus 2 tau. So, this is a Gaussian, but with the shifted mean and if you carefully see the mean is actually the one we had already obtained u naught e to the power minus tau and this is the variance which we had seen as 1 minus e to the power minus 2 tau by actually by actually working with the Langevin equation. But this gives you the confirms that the equation that we developed is consistent with the Gaussian approximation that we carried out and if one has to plot initially we had a delta function like this particularly that had some velocity at tau equal to 0 some velocity u naught. But before it attains equilibrium it becomes quite broad and the peak shifts with the time at any time to tau this is to any time tau peak shifts to a value e naught e to the power minus tau and the standard deviation here which is becomes square root of 1 minus e to the power minus 2 tau. So, this is the essence of the free particle problem solution to the free particle problem from the claim Cramer's equation. One can actually increase the level of complexity this has been done long ago and it is very well known and the classic book of S. Chandrasekhar reviews of modern physics in 1943 gives variety of solutions. Solutions for a projectile for example, where we do not assume that it is distributed uniformly in space particle is localized in velocity as well as in position solution is of course, apparently possible same double Fourier transform one has to use both for velocity as well as for position we get a very complicated multi Gaussian bivariate Gaussian distribution you will get and that has been done. One can further work with greater complexities of particles having some force field specially harmonic forces. So, its Brownian motion of bound particles all that can be done via the claim Cramer's equation. The claim Cramer's equations great advantages it enables us to understand how particles surmount barriers, why chemical reactions take place and many many other aspects. All this is relatively more advanced subject and we relegate all this to future. For now more or less we have examined ourselves starting from random walk model to Fokker Planck equation model to Cramer's model the kind of stochastic phenomena that a real physical systems encounter and how they can be described. Thank you.


Welcome back to the Kathy Rayleigh show presented by Buffalo Wild Wings I'm Sam Murray joined now with Stevenson women's lacrosse head coach Kathy Rayleigh and coach last time we talked It was winning. You're in you won you're in and now you're on to the semi-finals after beating Arcadia 9-7 in the first round talk about that game. Well, you know from start to finish it was an exciting game was back and forth goals Seemed like throughout the entire game We know we played great defense. We went in with a really good game plan But I think the shiniest part of that win is we really connected on attack So even though we only scored nine goals. We really controlled the clock. We moved the ball Well, we really made them have to come up with big stops And I was really really pleased with that because that's something that we'd been struggling with all year long So I was very very happy to see the attackers move. I mean we were scoring in transition We were getting great shots on goal and every settled play So, you know, we forced their goalie to step up big In order to keep them in the game, which was great and defensively. We just we just took the ball from them a Time which is just lovely to have that both ends of the field. We transitioned pretty well We did what we wanted to do on the draw. So kind of all came together What I'm hoping for is that carries into today today Yeah, one of the statistics that your team has done well all sees longs free position Mary Kate White scored three goals in Monday's win all three at the free position You play Messiah today in the semi-final going back to when you played them in the regular season That last 18 minutes when you're held scoreless had five free position attempts. How big is that going to be today? You know, I don't know the exact step It was something like we were two and 13 on free positions. They gave us 13 opportunities to score Now in the way that the game is today with how they position the defenders on either side And now in the women's game you have defensive specialists on free positions It's changed the percentage of free position success. However, when you get 13 opportunities We have to capitalize on five or at least five of those if not more on those I'd love to see 50% on that So we work a lot on free positions just to see our success is not a surprise You know, Messiah has a very good goalie. We talked a lot about what her strengths and weaknesses were Their defense is very very quick very good. So a lot of our free positions They were on us before we realized that we needed to get the shot off So we we really talked about a lot of that stuff We hope and we think if we can control the clock today That will take better advantage of those free position shots and hopefully come out with a win When we talk last time previewing Messiah in the regular season goal tending You said was going to be a huge difference in the win over Arcadia Mac Ferguson had 14 Messiah's they seem to split their goalies 30 minutes in each half. Is that's going to be a key again today? I Definitely think so Mac is gonna have to have a really big game. We know how they shoot We know what kind of shots they like and we know where they shoot from we've been working on it with her And she's really seeing the ball well this time of year So, you know, I want a big game for her because I do think that she's one of the best goalies around and a Lot of goals that went in on her this year We're you know one versus keeper, which is not fair and doesn't help doesn't help her her statistics very much So, you know to see her not be First team in the Mac that that was disappointing and we hoped that she can show today Why she kind of deserved to be that You know in the game against Albright I real I mean not Albright Arcadia I think that we really did a great job of forcing shots that were easy for her to save We we you know some of them that was like somebody was passing to the goalie, which was great It was just a great team effort We weren't giving any shots right in front of her which is so difficult for a goalie in and the goalie You know, it would be a miracle if they save something like that everything was far out under high pressure So to me, that's team defense. You did another team's gonna shoot It's what kind of shot you provide your goalie and what kind of odds you give her to say make the save that really counts You know all throughout the year, but especially now All coach we wish you the best luck tonight and hopefully Saturday. Yes And beyond and beyond yes for Kathy Rayleigh. I'm Sam Murray and this has been the Kathy Rayleigh show


Eukaryotes have many types of non-coding RNAs and NCRNAs that play important roles in regulating gene expression and controlling various biological processes. These include housekeeping NCRNAs, which are involved in basic cellular functions such as DNA replication and repair, and regulatory NCRNAs, which are involved in more specialized processes like development and metabolism. NCRNAs interact with each other, as well as with proteins, DNA, and other RNAs to form complex networks that control gene expression. Transcription, translation, and post-translational modifications also affect how NCRNAs function. By understanding these mechanisms, researchers can gain insight into how NCRNAs influence cellular processes and how they may be used for therapeutic purposes.

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الحمد لله والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله وعلى آله واصحابه اجمعين We praise Allah سبحانه وتعالى We send blessings and salutations upon Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم The best of creation, the most noble of all prophets of Allah سبحانه وتعالى His household, His companions may Allah bless them Bless every one of us grant us goodness And we ask Allah سبحانه وتعالى لكي تفاعلنا في هذه المنزل والمنزل. أمين. أخي وصديقاتي وصديقاتي ، نحن نذهب إلى المنزل والمنزل ونذهب إلى الحديث من the Prophet ﷺ. عائشة رضي الله عنها. The wife of the Prophet ﷺ tells us in a narration that the Prophet ﷺ taught me the following. He told me and instructed me to make a dua to call out to Allah using the following words. And I started off this hadith and I continued. But the reason why I want to pick up from that particular point is because we need to understand the value of these words. Here is the best of creation. Speaking to his most beloved who is عائشة رضي الله عنها. Once the Prophet ﷺ was asked who do you love the most. He said عائشة. And then he says her father. سبحان الله. Which means أبو بكر. الصديق رضي الله عنه. So here is the most beloved unto Allah telling his most beloved. Something very important. What is that? He says use these words to call out to Allah. Imagine he is telling his most beloved, his wife عائشة رضي الله عنها. He is saying use these words to call out to Allah. We are so fortunate to know what those words are. Amazing. Look at the value of it سبحان الله. So Allah سبحانه وتعالى has informed us of these words. And I made mention of these words. I'm moving on to another hadith of أبو هرير رضي الله عنه. Where the Prophet ﷺ has taught us this دعاء اللهم أصلح لديني الذي هو عصمة أمري وأصلح لي دنياية التي فيها معاشي وأصلح لي آخرة التي فيها معادي وجعل الحياة زيادة لي في كل خير والموتا راحت لي من كل شرن. That O Allah. Make good for me my deen that is the most important of my affairs. Make good for me my dunya which is the world that I need to live in or in which my life is. And make good for me my hereafter where I am actually going. That much we have already covered in the previous episode. Now we go to the next part of the same دعاء the same supplication. He says the Prophet ﷺ taught him وجعل الحياة زيادة لي في كل خير. O Allah make life for me a means of increase in goodness for me.  You see if we go back to the Ambiya and the Prophets of Allah سبحانه وتعالى we will find that Allah سبحانه وتعالى instructed for example Yunus ﷺ there is a narration that makes mention of how he would be receiving a reward a double reward. For everyone who was guided and everyone who did good. The same happens to everyone of us to a different level obviously but we also get a good reward for those whom Allah has used us to guide. Now while we are alive let that life be a means of increasing the good. Let that life be a means of increasing the good. If Allah knows that now the life that you are going to be having is not going to increase you in goodness but it's going to make things worse then that is where you say O Allah take us away. Take us away. So we're not making dua to Allah to take us away because of a problem we have a difficulty we have but because lack of obedience or lack of seriousness we might not be on the best terms with Allah the day he takes us away but it's going to make things worse on the best terms with Allah the day he takes us away and that's called a bad death.  So وَجَعَلِ الْحَيَاتَ زِيَادَ تَلِّيْ فِي كُلِّ خَيْرْ أو الله make life goodness make life an increase in goodness for me in every way. So as long as you're keeping me alive let goodness keep on increasing and let death be a means of ease for me from all the evil.  So the dua is so powerful saying oh Allah if you've kept me alive let that life be a means of goodness and if you've taken me away let that be a means of me being saved from calamity, disaster, negativity, etc. So I'm going to repeat this dua إن شاء الله with the idea of perhaps all of us maybe repeating or saying it with me or after me إن شاء الله calling out to Allah اللهم أصلح لي ديني الذي هو عصمة أمري وأصلح لي دنيا يلتي فيها معاشي وأصلح لي آخرتي التي فيها معادي وجعل الحياة زيادة لي في كل خير والموت راحة لي من كل شر. That is the hadith it's narrated in Sahih Muslim There are different narrations of the same hadith with slight variations in wording but that could be because the Prophet ﷺ taught it several times he may have used it several times taught it to different companions slight variations in wording you know آخرتي التي إليها معادي in one narration here it is فيها معادي So this is a beautiful narration of the Prophet ﷺ and it's a lovely dua that is the hadith of Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه the previous one was that of Aisha رضي الله عنها I'd like to move on to the narration of Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه another narration you see Allah سبحانه وتعالى instructed Muhammad ﷺ to call out to him to seek knowledge to seek increase in knowledge although Muhammad ﷺ was the most knowledgeable and although Allah سبحانه وتعالى had bestowed upon him the greatest and the highest favor Allah says وقور رب زيدني علما and say Oh my Rabb increase me in knowledge so the Prophet ﷺ having heard that he immediately used to make this dua quite often اللهم فعني بما علمتني وعلمني ما ينفعني وزيدني علما Oh Allah benefit me from the knowledge that you have granted me and grant me knowledge that is beneficial and grant me increase in knowledge so oh Allah benefit me from whatever you've taught me and teach me what will benefit me that's the literal translation of it and increase me in knowledge so this hadith is absolutely important because it shows us the various rights of knowledge we need to seek knowledge we need to benefit from the knowledge and we need to want increase in knowledge increase in knowledge will come when we have practiced upon that particular knowledge so when you practice upon knowledge you get increase the same applies to wealth when you earn you will only earn more in real terms when you start spending so there is no point in earning and amassing the Quran has actually cursed the person who has earned and amassed ويل اللي كله مزة اللمزة اللذي جمع مالا وعددة destruction be upon those who are very abusive with their tongues they lie they have deception and they despise and so on who are they the ones who gather their wealth and keep on counting it so they are miserly they come up with so much and they keep counting it and they have not benefited anyone with that wealth they haven't benefited from it as well because you only benefit from the wealth when you spend it when you use it that's the only time you actually benefit from the wealth so in this narration also we are taught that if I am to say اللهم منفعني بما علمتني oh Allah benefit me from what you've taught me that would mean I need to make an effort to put into practice what I've learnt if I've learnt what will happen is I must be able to benefit from that knowledge what's the point of having so much of knowledge and you haven't even you haven't even practiced upon that knowledge it is the point of knowledge it is a waste of knowledge isn't it so this is why the حديث says علمني ما ينفعني teach me that which will benefit me now one might say it should have been a different order oh Allah teach me that which will benefit me and benefit me from that which you've taught me teach me that which will benefit me and benefit me from that which you've taught me that's what one might have thought is the order and it is the order in another narration but this narration is correct authentic and it goes to show that what is more important is to benefit from the knowledge what is more important is to benefit from the knowledge so I have knowledge that is beneficial but have I benefited from it someone might say there is repetition in this حديث there's no repetition the reason is I can have beneficial knowledge and do nothing with it so what has happened it's beneficial it's good but I haven't benefited from it so one is to get beneficial knowledge and to benefit from the beneficial knowledge and the benefit is mentioned before getting the knowledge because of its importance because of how serious that matter is and this is why at the end it says زدني علمن oh Allah grant me increase in that particular knowledge or in knowledge this حديث is narrated in سننة ترميدي and it's something we need to constantly ask الله سبحانه وتعالى may Allah make it easy for all of us to learn and to put into practice and to convey to others I sometimes sit and I think how the صحابة رضي الله عنهم the wives of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم how seriously they took up a knowledge and the study of knowledge they passed on the baton generations it is as fresh as ever and it's come to us when we sit with the Qur'an we know for a fact that these are the words of Allah unchanged uncontaminated although it's 1400 and 30 odd years later but سبحان الله we are convinced the same applies to the حديث of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم there are narrations when we are so convinced these are the words of the Prophet as fresh as ever because we know they made a great effort my brothers and sisters surely we could make even a small effort and inshallah we would be earning the pleasure of Allah سبحانه وتعالى I want to actually move on to another beautiful very very important حديث of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم where he used to say the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم used to say this is a beautiful حديث it has many different narrations many different wordings so the one wordings that I've made mentioned of here is امام احمد there is another one which says you see the greatest sin that could be committed by mankind is شرك شرك meaning association of partnership with Allah sometimes people don't know or they don't realize or they don't you know pay attention to certain things that could just be شرك it could be association of partnership with Allah it's important that we give this matter you know great relevance because it is a matter that is very very serious where Allah says I will forgive anything but شرك I won't forgive surely we should be talking about it it's something serious because some people don't like to talk about it they say what's this you know why should we keep repeating this issue because that's the only thing Allah says if you were to do it I'm not going to forgive you if you were to do it I'm not going to forgive you so I'm going to be speaking about it you should be speaking about it everyone should be speaking about it and whenever someone speaks about it we should be from among those who realize its importance so much so that the prophet peace be upon him himself has taught the people this is a hadith of أبو موسى الأشعري رضي الله عنه he says the prophet gave us a lecture one day and he says يا أيها الناس اتقوا هذا شرك you know be careful of this shirk be careful of it and the hadith goes on to say that he taught us a dua he taught us a dua that we should say اللهم إنا نعود بك من أن نشرك بك شيء أن نعلمه ونستغفيرك لماذا نعلم oh Allah we seek your protection we seek your protection from having engaged in any participation of or in any association of partnership with you that which we know and we seek your forgiveness for that which we don't even know سبحان الله so it shows us that there are two different aspects that which you know that which you don't even realize you know my brothers and sisters when we sin sometimes we don't even realize we sinning because it's become so common sometimes you know we backbite without realizing you're backbiting we engage in slander sometimes without realizing I forwarded a message I've spread something and it's a major slander so sometimes we become you know subconsciously we just pass it through without thinking this is where we need to improve إن شاء الله we need to start becoming more conscious of what we say what we do what we forward what we receive and so on even on our mobile devices which is you know the current device of the age the mobile device and we're so into knowing what's happening in everybody's life that is quite dangerous but that having been said that is connected to sin that is connected to participating in that which would displease Allah by doing what he doesn't want you to do which is lesser than شرك however there is something far greater than mere sin and that is شرك it is association of partnership with Allah سبحانه و تعالى not only should we be careful of it learn what it's all about so that you know what it is and what it's not but you should also ask Allah to protect you from شرك O Allah protect me from شرك when last did we say that let's be honest O Allah protect me from شرك O Allah protect me from association of partnership with you I can't remember when last we've said that سبحان الله here is a dua the Sahaba رضي الله عنهم are saying that O Allah that the Prophet ﷺ is teaching them this dua O Allah we seek your protection we seek refuge in you from شرك from committing شرك which is association of partnership with you in a way that we know and we ask your forgiveness for that which we don't know may Allah سبحانه و تعالى make us from among those who really understand this issue you know when Luqman the wise who was according to the narrations he was from Noba he was from Sudan an African Allah makes mention of him in the Quran because of his advice Allah makes mention of him in the Quran because of the advice he gave his son the first piece of advice he gave his son و إذ قال لُقْمَان لِبْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَعِظُمُوا يَا بُنَيَّا لَا تُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ الشِرْكَ لَظُلْمُنْ عَظِيمُ remember when Luqman gave his son advice while he was advising him he said to him O my dear son do not perpetrate shirk do not engage in shirk do not associate partners with Allah for indeed that is the biggest sin you could commit سبحان الله here is the man giving the pieces of advice he starts off with one factor that we don't even talk about sometimes may Allah سبحانه وتعالى make us from those who understand and realize so my brothers and sisters we move on to another hadith of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم this time of Abdullah ibn Abbas رضي الله عنهما it's a powerful narration as well and it goes to show that the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was indeed sent as as a mercy to us he was indeed sent as a mercy he taught us every single thing the صحاب رضي الله عنهما say ما ترك خيرا إلا ودلنا عليه ولا شرا إلا حذرنا منه there is no goodness that he forgot to teach us every goodness he taught us and there is no evil that he did not warn us about so we really have to praise Allah for this beautiful gift that he has bestowed upon us so this narration of Abdullah ibn Abbas رضي الله عنهما he says the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم used to say he used to say so he didn't just say it once كان يقول he used to say اللهم لك أسلم تو Oh Allah unto you I have submitted for you I've submitted now I want to pause for a moment and remind you while you are listening to this every one of us should be thinking about it for ourselves Oh Allah for you I have submitted اللهم لك أسلم تو Oh Allah for you I have submitted و بك أمن تو and in you I have believed Oh Allah I have submitted unto you and I believe in you و عليك توقل تو and I have laid my full trust in you this is the beginning of a beautiful supplication و إليك أنبتو and I have turned to you I have returned to you you know to come back to الله سبحانه وتعالى in obedience و بك خاصم تو and through you I argue you know when we have an argument when we have a dispute it's all through Allah سبحانه وتعالى it's for the sake of Allah and it's with the name of Allah سبحانه وتعالى so it's either to portray the truth or it is to achieve justice it is الخاصم actually means a dispute and خاصم here could mean you know when the argument or the dispute when we say through Allah سبحانه وتعالى it's for Allah it's for the sake of Allah either to achieve clarity about worship regarding who Allah is etc. or even just for justice so Oh Allah it is through you that I argue or dispute اللهم إني أعوذ بإزتك Oh Allah I seek refuge in I seek refuge in your power I seek refuge in your power from what now before making mention of from what the the du'as pauses for a moment and it says لا إله إلا أنت there is none worthy of worship besides you so it's worded this way اللهم إني أعوذ بإزتك لا إله إلا أنت أنتو ضل لني Oh Allah I seek refuge in your power in your might and there is none worthy of worship besides you from being led astray you see so it's actually the the middle of that has in it لا إله إلا أنت there is none worthy of worship besides you Oh Allah I seek the protection in your power there is none worthy of worship besides you from being led astray سبحان الله اللهم إني أعوذ بإزتك لا إله إلا أنت أنتو ضل لني سبحان الله now it continues praising Allah أنت الحي الذي لا يموت والجن والإنسو يموتون you are the all living you are the ever living the one who does not die but as for mankind and jinn kind they will die so the du'a here is only asking الله that we be saved from being misguided that's all but look at the introduction the praising of Allah Oh Allah I surrender to you I believe in you I lay my trust in you I return to you I through you I dispute and argue Oh Allah I seek protection in your power there is none worthy of worship besides you from being led astray you are the all living the ever living who does not die the jinn and the ins you know humankind jinn kind they do die سبحان الله so this is something really amazing it's a hadith رواه الإمام مسلم and it goes to show that we will surrender to Allah and this is actually a beautiful du'a that we can make all the time Oh Allah I surrender to you I believe in you you know when I'm dispute it's you that I'm always always after Oh Allah and I want you to protect me from misguidance and it also goes to show how serious the issue of misguidance is you know when people are misguided it is the worst thing that could happen to someone guidance is in the hands of Allah so definitely we need to ask Allah guidance and Allah allows that misguidance therefore we ask him to protect us from misguidance as well so my brothers and sisters that's the beautiful hadith of the prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم إن شاء الله I look forward to the next episode and until then أقول قولي هذا والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله


From New York, it's theCUBE. Covering Escape 19. Hello and welcome back to theCUBE's coverage here in New York City for the first ever inaugural multi-cloud conference called Escape 2019. Escape, we're in New York, we're not escaping from New York, we're escaping from the cloud. Jim Walker, Vice President of Product Marketing at Cockroach Labs, the custodian founders of Cockroach Database, welcome back, good to see you. Congratulations on your new role, new gig in there for a while. Yeah, it's been a while since I've seen you, John. I've jumped out of the data space in Indie Kubernetes and so, yeah, I landed at Cockroach Labs about a year ago and I'm having fun. It's interesting, the game is still the same, data is still the center of the value proposition with software. Data is now code, data is interacting with software, data control planes, data layers, data lakes, all of this is an evolution of stuff we were talking about back in the open source days at Hortonworks, the data is in motion, data in flight, data at rest. Data is continuing to be critical in automation, security, every single app. It's at the center of the big battle right now, right? There's this like, I just sense there's a larger battle going on for the platform right now and the platform is being battled out by these large public cloud providers and it's who can get compute, who can get actually people, residents in their cloud and data has always been the centerpiece of that and data has gravity, before it was on-prem so the battle was in-house at all these people and now it's like, how do we get this stuff to move on? We were talking before you came on camera and also we talk online a lot and have a lot of connected friends and the cloud native space but now that cloud 2.0 has arrived where it's enterprise, hybrid, people starting to get excited about that, you're seeing the re-platformization or refactoring, whatever word you want to use, a modern enterprise architecture that has the best of cloud native, that has the best of what the enterprise used to do with compute, like mini-computers and whatnot. Now packaged up in an operating model, this modernization trend is hitting every thing, note, developers, security. This is kind of where you're playing right now. You look at what Google's done with Spanner database and where that's all come from and these kinds of large scale data problems. Modernization's here, what's your take on this? I think it's just modernization, it's stuff we've been doing for a long time. I was talking to Steve Milani earlier. Steve's brilliant, right? And Steve's talking about, you know, 1992, we saw this transition to kind of client server. I've never seen anything like this trend. This transition and this modernization is much bigger than any of the other trends that we've been through. Back when we were talking before is the Hadoop game and we were talking modern data architecture. How do we actually transform the way we thought about data from these kind of, you know, single kind of stove pipes of data into larger data lakes and this sort of thing? That was the beginning. What we're seeing this time though is a massive, you know, transformation up and down this stack of which data is one huge massive piece of it. And as we know, man, data has gravity and it's at the center of this battle again. What's your definition of multi-cloud? We're the first ever multi-cloud conference. What is multi-cloud? You know, I got to ask this a fair amount. So as I was looking for speakers, I was like, what do you mean a multi-cloud conference? What does that even mean? There's a lot of people, like multi-cloud unbelievers. I think we already live in a multi-cloud world. I think hybrid cloud is just multi-cloud. You know, I talked to a lot of people through the CFP process for the conference.  I'm like, well, if you look at it, it's just servers. They're just servers that are everywhere. And actually, how do we actually start to attach all this stuff? It's all multi-cloud.  You may own them, you may not. The challenge is going to be, how do we tie all that together? You know, how do we? I mean, computer history has proven, if anything, heterogeneous environments, multi-vendor.  I mean, that was a real threat to the mainframe. Internet working completely changed the game. At that time, PCs were exploding in growth and multi-vendor was a big dump buzzword. And that was the reality. You had to compete and service multiple vendors in an environment. Multiple clouds, just multiple vendors. John, and it's, you know, it's kind of, it's like the multi-cloud conference. And, you know, my friend, Joseph Jackson, Joseph and I have a lot of conversations about things, you know, and he's brilliant in terms of how he thinks about commercial open source and how these things are. And, you know, I really played around with changing the name of this to the open and independent cloud conference because that's really what this is about. It's about, how do we have a conversation in the open about how we open up the cloud? And, you know, I just got, I was a little frustrated with some of the conferences I went to because I think people are talking about this, but it's not lip service. It's just difficult to talk about it in a broader sense.  Stu and I have debates about this. And, you know, I'll put in, okay, of course. But people who know what I mean know that I believe that multi-cloud reality of I have Amazon, I got Azure, I got, I mean, hell, if you upgrade Office 365, you have Azure. So that's another cloud. So yes, people have multiple clouds in their environment, but the foundational work is being done now. You guys are doing it. And that's what I was getting at. There's no multi-clouding going on and meaning sense of the seamless workloads, what HachiCorp's doing. So this is the foundational, what you guys are getting at in my mind, at least from my perspective, is a foundational conversation around what is the foundation of multi-cloud look like? And John, look, there is a technical equation here. I think a lot of people will argue the technical merits of what is multi-cloud. Is it even possible to combine networking and security? Those are really, really difficult problems to solve. At Cockroach Labs, to solve the database problem, to solve the data problem, to actually have, I could spin up a note of Cockroach on this laptop that's sitting next to you and have that participate in a database that spans multiple clouds. That's awesome. But there's a whole other side of this conversation, John, around what does it mean for my skills in my organization? What does it mean for the financial side of things? So legal. And so I think we're all dealing with a lot of these multi-cloud kind of concepts. We're just addressing them yet. And so it's complex. Well, first of all, it's fun too, it's complex. But what innovation is complex? But here's the thing. Dave and I were joking around Cloud 2.0. And we picked that term out. We were talking about Cloud 2.0. Mainly because I remember during Web 2.0, it was just everyone, what is Web 2.0? It creates such a debate. And so to goof on Web 2.0, we said Cloud 2.0. But what we mean is that it's changing, right? I'll give you an example. I mean, to me, Cloud 2.0 or multi-cloud is having a fully horizontal scalable infrastructure on demand, elastic at resource, with domain specialty application development that takes advantage of data and machine learning for a domain-specific context. And then having an addressable data layer on top of that. Yes. That's what you need is multi-cloud now. And being able to service your customers no matter where they are. And unfortunately, the public com providers don't have full coverage across the whole planet. So we inherently live in this multi-cloud world. If you want to deploy an application today, I'm sorry, but the world is your audience. There's no segmenting your app to just New York, right? And so how do you actually service customers when they're coming at you from all over the planet? It's another challenge that we have. And fortunately, I want to add to your Cloud 2.0 conversation that it is a world of hybrid and multi- and multi-region and single region. And it's the evolution between these different kind of flavors of this, such a, I feel is the emerging trend that's happening. Categories are changing. Network management becomes observability. Configuration management becomes automation.  This redefining moments here where white spaces are becoming larger categories. I mean, look at observability. Yeah. Public, it bought. Look at what Google did over the past like 10, 12 years. And look at the startups that are now out there that are kind of doing this really innovative stuff. We have light stuff here. Cockroach is another great example. What the up-found team is doing. And so like, people have been through this. From a data point of view, we couldn't agree more. I mean, I can spin up an instance of RDS, Postgres, and it's going to be a single instance that's going to live in one region. That's going to service one bit of a cloud in one corner of the world. The cloud and this massive distribution of stuff, you have to inherently start over when you're building these technologies. And that's why the CNCF has come about, right? There's a fundamentally different approach. You're at the CNCF. I love those guys. And we're going to go to CubeCon. But one of the things that I was talking with the Hashicarp co-founder earlier today, he was talking about workflows. And I was talking about workloads. And so I think the conversation is still technical and geeky. But if you just abstract out all the nerd talk and geek talk and say, what's the workflow? And what's the workload? You go, okay, no other buzzword should be talked. You got to go on stage. So you got to go, Jim Walker, Vice President of Product Marketing and Cockroach Labs, good friend of the Cube, and part producer of this show with Mike Harrow and the team, Escape 19. First, inaugural multi-cloud conference. We'll be back with more after this short break.


Hey, this is Brett and this 2018 BMW 35i with X-Drive is stock number 22J109A. I'm here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. You're new and used SUV headquarters. This 2018 BMW 35i has the 3.0-liter turbocharged i6 engine, puts out 300 horsepower. This vehicle has been fully-safetyed and inspected by our service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this vehicle is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around inside, start it up, take a look under the hood in this video. Alpine white is the color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities turn them on right now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition options and cleanliness of the vehicle before seeing it in person. And if you like the video, you can subscribe to the YouTube channel, youtube.com. And as you go down this side of the vehicle you can see just how nice and clean those doors are. I didn't see any dents, I didn't see any dings on them. The hood is in excellent shape as is the fender. This one comes with the painted and polished aluminum 19-inch rims, and it has Goodyear Eagle LS tires. These are 23550R19 tires, and I would say they have probably about 60% of the tread left on them, so really good tread left on those tires. Rims are in excellent shape. Front fender is in excellent condition as well. Those have the HID headlamps, factory fog lights, they look like they're LEDs. Front bumper is in nice shape, didn't see any major dents or dings on there. It does have the front bumper parking sensors. The hood is in fantastic condition, I didn't see any dents or dings on there. Looks really good, and the passenger side front fender is in excellent shape as well. Passenger side rim, no major scuffs or scrapes on there. And as you go down this side of this 2018 BMW 35i X-Drive, take note of how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. I take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the vehicle, hear the vehicle, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. And if this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesmen know that you saw the video that was helpful and that Brett sent you. The rim is in excellent shape as well. And the back tires have just as much tread as the front tires. Four wheel disc brakes on this vehicle. Coming around to the back, the rear bumper is in very nice shape as well. You get the dual rear exhaust, back of parking sensors, and the rear gate is in fantastic condition as well. So it does have a lift gate, so it lifts up like so, and then it has a little tailgate as well. So that's kind of a neat feature. Those seats do fold down for extra storage.  Here's your owner's manual and all your stuff. And it does have a sun shade as well, which is a nice feature. If you've got valuables back here, you know, kind of keep them out of sight, out of mind. Or if you've got groceries, just keep them out of the sun, so that's kind of a neat thing to have. Lift this close, just lift that up, and it does have the power down gate as well. That shuts nice and solidly. Down the rest of this side of the vehicle once again looks really good. This back rim is in excellent shape too. And driver's side doors are in fantastic condition. Does have heated power mirrors, built in directional signals. Inside you get the black leather interior, power driver's seat, memory driver's seat, no rips, no tears. On that seat, very nice. Weather tech floor mats, does have auto headlamps, you have power telescopic and tilt steering wheel, heated steering wheel, wood grain trim, power windows, power locks, power mirrors. These mirrors do power fold in. Now it's like showing both sides so that you know that both sides are working properly. Take a quick look at the back seats. Back seats are just as clean as the front seats. No rips or tears back here. Does have the latch child safety system for any child car seats, weather tech floor mats back here. And you get rear air controls, and these back seats are heated on the outboard side. These backrests do fold down like so, so that's a nice feature to have as well if you get a whole bunch of extra stuff.  Add safety locks on the back doors, and the bottoms of the doors all look really good. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this BMW has to offer on the interior. Alright, you can see that this one has 68,080 miles digital, or the instrument cluster is very nice and clean. And you get the heated leather wraps steering wheel, Bluetooth and audio controls on the right, cruise controls on the left, paddle shifters right there has the infotainment system here. And it does have the factory navigation system, it does have highway 41 there, so you know that's working nicely. And you get this control pad right here, where you can go to your media and all that different stuff, serious satellite radio, AM, FM, and you have your different menus where you can go through all of this, my vehicle, connected drive, and all that good stuff. So that's working nicely, dashes nice and clean, does have the heated seats, dual climate controls, CD player, you get a little bit of storage here, cup holders, automatic transmission stability control, you got your different ride settings, downhill assist control parking sensors, electronic parking brake, and auto hold, passenger side, format and seat are in fantastic condition, I don't think this vehicle's ever been smoked in. And that does have the panoramic sunroof, that is in nice shape, do get SOS assist right there, controls for that sunroof, and then you get your home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lighting systems in the mirror. So we'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Also check out all those HID lights and everything up front. Starts right up, no check engine lights or anything like that. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video you've been able to verify the quality condition options and of course the cleanliness of this BMW all the way around inside out. There are those HID headlamps, the LED fog lamps, and then your LED running lights are the halos around those main lights. And under the hood we have the 3 liter twin power turbo i6 engine, 300 horsepower engine base, very clean, runs very smooth. Once again this vehicle has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop as a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off, runs really smooth. And this vehicle is 100% ready to go. There is your emissions sticker. And I would highly recommend this BMW 35i from a quality and condition standpoint and to see more pictures of this vehicle or one of our other 550 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, Wranglers, you name it, we've got to go to that website right there, summitauto.com.

OH NO! IT'S TAKES ON MAN TUESDAY! HAHAHAHA! Nick, there's no way you could like the show that much. There's only been three episodes. I'm sorry to say it, but this show went to, like, top five material after the first episode.  Because I like offending people. I love it. I love every second of it. Today, guess what? I'm gonna love it even more.   I'll let you know. I'll be the first one to say it. I kinda regret getting a Makama shirt. I-I shoulda got a Power shirt. You know what? I already bought one, actually. It's coming in the mail. Anyways, that's it. This intro is done. I'm gonna shut up, and we're gonna get to Dengie's adventures to touch in Power's titties. HUUUH WHAT THE FUCK?! HE MADE IT! Broad is motherf***ing has more screen time on this show than a demon slayer! Broad is three of you! We just started!  Bro, look, I have one here, one there, and I have one here, bro. It's him! It's all three of them! NOOOO!  Who do you know? NOOOO! Power! Oh my God, I just- I just ordered a shirt. I'm getting a refund. Makimot's back to you. You manipulate me, do what you want.  Nah, man. Those are literally Chatharo's cousins, man. M-m-m-m-might be his second, brothers. I don't- I don't wanna watch this. I don't wanna watch this episode. I- I can't do this.  S-st-st-st-stop. Stop st-st-stop it? Stop it stop it stop it. Nobody gave me a warning. There was no warning before the episode started. Alright, the cows, you can fuckin' murder. I don't care. You didn't have to eat the birds! Broad is lookin' at all the wildlife! There you go! Is she eating it? Yeah, that was kind of hot. NOOOOOO!  Awww. This cat better not- Every ever- It- it's just gonna be the whole episode. Awww. No. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry- I'm done standing here. I'm done. I'm done, guys. I'm done.  Y'all have pandas in Japan, I know you do!  You're safe for now! No, don't eat him, he has no meat! Man, jokes aside- This is sad. You motherfucker, I shouldn't be feeling bad for you after what you just did. Oh wait. OH WAIT! OH WAIT! No, oh, from last week, she's in the stomach! I told you she's not dead! Satama over here. Murdered the elephant bat. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, give it up to me. The 9-11 cartoon had just happened. This dude's like, alright, titty time. That's all that matters, bro. Denji, I'll feel you. Where? Where? I want to see it happen! No, no more birds! I don't trust this show with birds anymore. You mean we're not gonna see the titty?  What's the point of watching this? Oh wait! This is Denji's moment. This is more important than anything in any other anime, in Chainsaw Amazing. Now he can't grab the titty! You know, I saw a picture of her, and I was like, hear me out. No! No, I'm not going there. I'm not going there. Like, just imagine! Like, imagine! With those lips! No! Wait, he's Chainsaw, man. Bro, like, that's so much to play with. Alright, let's get serious. Let's get serious. I'm still not forgiving her for the birds! That can't be good for him. He just did it. There has to be repercussions. Yeah! Yo, this is brutal! Oh, y'all know I like that!  Batty? Bro, that motherfucker is so big, he couldn't come up with a different name, but Batty? Don't wonder why he's dead.  That was her man. How they... Oh, they definitely had fun.  What do you want to change, so long as you're asshole? Then... Die! Because he already did it! Bro, I don't... This show never slows down! It just had a crazy episode, now we're right back to the action! Like, what? Mafa!   Is this how you fight? That's all he cares about. He needs to get us a hand back, so we can grab you. Damn! Because his name's Batty. Oh my god. That was your dream? It's kind of like my dream. No, it's not! Man, what's wrong with this bitch?  This would be like me and my ex.  I like that. His first gig as a voice actor. Like, tell me not, the denji voice actor is killing it, man. Like, seriously. Listen to this guy. The action in this show is god-tier. I can't imagine what it's going to be like towards the end of the show or the season. Yo! Give this guy all the jobs! Your dream's weaker than Fano Fingertip.   I wish somebody would say that to me. I can't get over this voice actor!  His chainsaw's soft. Bro, you hear these noises he's making? Like, these animal sounds? He sounds like an animal. Oh no, why'd I rewind? Crunchyroll doesn't work when you rewind. Did I learn my lesson? He's an animal! This is what a guy would do to touch a tittie. I'm telling you, I would act like this if it meant a tittie was on the line. Give this guy every award, voice actor of the year, because Wow!  No overreacting, man. I'm cringein' from that.  Oh no! Okami? Yo, that made my heart stop, that was sick! Yo! Oh my, oh wait, it is, that's a guy. This dude looks like the most normal looking guy, but watch him actually be powerful.  Am I gonna stand her? Damn it, dude! I've been waiting to see his powers! That was in the trailer! It is a girl, but she has an eye patch, I don't believe in her.  Damn, look at those side effects from music it's twice. He's thanked him! What a... Ten minutes! Damn! Thank god, now he can touch the titties, he better not forget, he's not gonna forget that. Oh, what is Makima gonna do? It's like Pochita! Aw, she is cool. I love power. Except for what she did in the beginning. This is that OST that makes you stop. If you're making jokes, if you're laughing, you're smiling, it just makes you stop.  Man, I'm starting to like him. I like his attitude. Because he saved them! Aw! That's right. Tanji saved you. I was waiting to see him!  Man, push the plate to him! Oh god, what's that condition? What are they gonna make a contract? There are enough contracts. This is how Kanye must feel. They're relaxed, man. Unbutton the button. You don't dream small. Your dream is about power. Nothing small about her. Oh, I thought he was about to punch him. It's him getting sacked in the nut sack. Man, the animation. This is such a beautiful shot. Every shot, like these scenery shots that they do, it's just beautiful. Like, look at this with the lighting and the buildings on the side, the angle, everything! God, man, I'm simping over this show! Yeah, hurry up! I know you might like that. I do, but... I gotta just have how her character's gonna be. I can tell by her attitude. That's not what the opening said, when y'all were dancing and throwing balls against pins. Y'all are gonna be dancing soon. You better become friends. Yo! I'm waiting for this dude to smile. What's gonna make him smile? That's my question. We're gonna see him smile one day and that's gonna be the thumbnail. Because it's gonna be iconic. Man, I might actually like her more now. Because of power eating all those chanteros in the beginning. You're not interrupting anything. She's just planning her next evil scheme. Man, this looks better than New York.  Now she's gonna whip Denji! Put him in a doghouse. That might actually happen. That's all she cares about. Her dog's behaving, and you can win their job. Man... Call her sir. Yeah, that's right! My asshole! Even her face! She was like... I thought that was Saitama's house for a second. I got excited. He looks nice with his hair down. Damn, okay, Zaddy. I'm gonna get that apartment right next to him.  I'm sorry if I'm... Nick, stop pointing, you're ruining it!  Beautiful. He'd be a beautiful woman. You see what I mean? You see why I love this show? You see what I mean? Putting paste on a brush has never looked more aesthetic than what I just saw. Dude, this is his daily morning routine. I love this.  I prefer watching this than every Marvel movie that's out. And TV show. Bro, that literally looks better than the coffee I made this morning. With his newspaper? Aw, he's a little old man. I like him. Finally, we're getting into him. I mean, it's the fourth episode. I shouldn't be saying finally. Like three seasons past.  Damn, Mappa, you better be giving him food. This looks like foodless behavior. I smoke cigs after everything I just saw. Especially after Power, bro. I might develop a new habit. He's so wholesome, man. I wanna marry him. Oh, y'all, every woman, you need to find a man like this. This guy is perfection. What else could you ask for? Dude's wearing an apron. He's gonna put on a maid outfit soon. He thinks he's a dog. Machima! What are you doing to him? No, that sounds like Power. Power would knock on a door like that. Machima wouldn't. I'ma try that. It's Power, I'm telling you. I know that! Oh, she brought little meowie with her. Damn, though. I like that fit. I'm telling the girl, I'm talking to you. You better start dressing like Power. Yo! They're gonna be bunk buddies. Now they're gonna be like best friends all three of them. I love this. It's like having two kids in the house. He's like the mommy and the daddy. Oh, he's daddy. She's always plotting. I don't trust her at all. The girl says she'll behave.  Look, he's daddy and mommy.  He's gonna get a baby stroller. Get a crib for the both of them. Oh, that's my kind of woman. Bro, he has a cat. He has like three devils in the house right now. I love it. Bro, where's his wolf at? Let him play with meowie. I'm surprised he starts smelling his seed. Yeah, wait. Oh, thank God. I thought that was something else on the stick. I thought it was shit, but I forgot they censored that in Japan, I think.  I'm surprised he didn't start looking at him. You forgot about my titty? Yeah, yeah!  Yo, she didn't forget.  Oh my God. Oh! Oh! Bro, she's doing the whole presentation. What the? Oh, this episode better be anything soon. I gotta take care of business. No, just grab it! I mean, can we do even numbers? One more.  Bro, is he better explode?  No! No! No, I knew that was gonna happen. I knew we were gonna see it. At least we got some jingle mechanics, though. That, I'll let it slide. But power, I still can't forgive you to what you did to his brothers. That was unforgivable. The only way I would have forgave you if you let me touch your titties now. That's the only way. The only way. Even if it's a cosplayer, as long as y'all let me do it, I'll forgive her. But right now, she's on my bad side. I'm debating on wearing her shirt or not when it comes in the mail. I don't know what I'm doing, guys. Anyways, what'd you guys think of the episode? I loved it. Funny, eventful, suspenseful, action heavy.  The animation, everything about it is just so interesting. I'm loving every second of the show. I'm loving it. I mean, y'all see me enjoying other anime's and I do. I love them. But chainsaw, man, just gives me that attack on Titan love. I'm just so excited every time I react to it. I'm fully involved into the story, fully engaged with it. I just want more and more. And it's sad that the season is almost ending in a week or something, in a week, in seven episodes. That's not enough. We need 30 episodes at once. But yeah, that's it. I'm gonna go take care of business. I gotta edit this fast.


I thought we contained them we can't we couldn't score you know and and you know what nobody talks about is their first in the league and you know defense I believe right and so they're really tough to score on they got great room protection I thought their defense was was outstanding we struggled struggled to score obviously struggled to shoot the ball so but big credit is is to the defense defense is good but what do you need to see on the offensive side of the ball to get into a little bit of a better rhythm listen you know it's it's part of the NBA I think where we're going through a tough stretch we obviously have some guys out and some guys back and mixing mixing and matching I like what we do offensively sure we can move it better but it's tough when you're not making shots you know it's it's and then we just start driving it into a crowd you you have to keep them honest you know from the perimeter it's tough to go five four forty two from three they just keep keep crowd in the paint so see you drive it but they're all in there so it's it's you know we gotta we gotta figure out how to make some make them make them pay for being in there you've always you've had problems with their length before I mean it's always it's been an ongoing issue are you was this them or is this you guys not moving the ball the way that the ball had stuck in the last couple of games yeah was that more you was that more them I think tonight it's a lot them I really do part of it is us not making shots but we've been in a little bit you know seven a game shooting funk for whatever reason I we gotta we gotta figure it out like I said I thought our defense was was you know we held the fort defensively should have given us a chance to be in the game if our offense was at any kind of a normal level so we'll look at the tape you know Orlando I looked at the tape I thought it was a case of a lot of miss shots tonight we'll look at it but I do think they're they're an outstanding defensive team and they have great length great length at the rim great versatility and they've a lot of excellent defenders quite honestly playing every other day for the next few days coach how do you manage rest and try to you know deal with the yeah yeah we've been doing it you know we've been we've been find a ways you know until we get everybody back healthy I think we're you know we have good strategies in place to to manage that listen I think everybody's you know Milwaukee's tired everybody's tired it's you know right before the all-star break so we just got to recoup you know we'll have a little practice tomorrow and and get ready for Denver
