Välkomna till Laddingtons 3. Jag vill tala lite om karbohydraten och fatt. Och det här är faktiskt en ganska kontroversal tema. En gång tillbaka gjorde jag en videon där CrossFit började basera Facebook för att bli utopien socialt. Det var en fun och ganska random sak att lägga, men de också brådde upp det att Facebook har delit en väldigt populär page där folk sker sina erfarenheter med en hög fatt diet. Så det kanske är något att hålla i mindre när vi diskuterar den här wholea problemet av karbohydraten och fatt. Så Facebook, apparently for whatever reason, maybe they got pressured from some grain companies or, I don't know, but they did delete a large group with a million or so followers or members. So that was only the something to throw out there before I begin to talk about my perspective upon it. If you want a bit more political angle to this nutritional topic. Now as you might have noticed, the comment section is open and that is because as usual when there is a topic that is worth discussing, it's something important such as diet, it's an excruciatingly important topic in my humble opinion. I will start talking more about it because after all what you eat on a daily basis is very important for your mental and physical well being. And if you fuel your body with the good stuff, you will produce good thoughts, simple as that.  And there is a lot of evil people in this day and age. And I am absolutely certain it has something to do with the water and the food, everything we take into our bodies. And then of course, obviously things such as drugs, etc. Now on to the topic of carbs and fat. My perspective is this, I want to be as strong as possible. I want to be able to sink a battleship with this fist and this fist and the same thing goes for my legs. I want to look as aesthetically pleasing as possible. I want people to just stare at me, admire me and see how epic I look. I want to be able to formulate the best possible thoughts in my mind. I want to be able to write as well as possible. And I want to be as clear as possible in my everyday life, how I plan things. So that is how I view, that is how I approach this topic. I want to be a demigod basically. I want to be a demigod. There is no sense in denying this fact, I am being honest about this. And then I have to approach nutrition in such a way, how can I best facilitate all of these goals I just said to you. And what we have to keep in mind is that carbohydrates is a supplement. It's a sports supplement used for athletic performance. So I will hit the gym later, therefore I have loaded up with a meal of carbohydrates. And I made a Gains Kitchen video showing you roughly how that meal can look. You can just watch through my Gains Kitchen series here on YouTube and I will make more Gains Kitchen videos. Because as I said I think it's a very important topic, nutrition. So I view carbohydrates in that sense. I don't view it as food per se, but I view it as a supplement I use to fuel my performance. So if I want to say that I want to be as strong as possible, I want to be able to bench press a mountain. I need carbohydrates to fuel up my muscle. So if we look upon my physique, carbohydrates is my way to fuel my body. So I can push through sessions. So if someone asks me how to break these stalls in the push press or in the squats or in the bench press or what have you. I say try to increase your intake of carbohydrates for a while. Same thing if I want to partake in some sort of more cardio, intense endeavor. Then I also load up with carbohydrates because it's good fuel for athletic performance. So in my humble opinion I view carbohydrates as a means to fuel your performance. It can also of course be cultural. You have most pleasant things here in life are made out of carbohydrates. So if you want to have a nice meal there will be elements of bread or what have you. Most meals contain carbohydrates and that's completely fine. But keep in mind that it's either for nice eating or it is for sports performance. Now if we're talking about fat, a high fat diet, if I don't train as much I eat more fat. If I wouldn't go to the gym, if I wouldn't train MMA, I would probably eat a lot more fat and a lot less carbohydrates. Because if I don't train, if I'm just out to optimize my cognitive abilities, then I focus on fats. And if I don't need to fuel a performance in the gym, I don't really need carbohydrates either. So that is my take there. Fats are to ensure a good hormonal production and to ensure a good cognitive ability.  So with that being said I don't endorse any low fat versions and I don't endorse over consumption of sugar. I will make a separate video on sugar later on. Now this was just a short video, sort of an introductory video to coming videos I will make later on. So if I make gains kitchen videos and I talk about low carb meal or high fat meal etc. You know the reasoning behind it. So for example if I'm having a day where I don't train at all, I try to eat more fat. So eggs with bacon, lots of butter, meat and butter, that sort of stuff and cream. So just heavy on fat and low on carbohydrates. On the contrary if I need to perform in the temple of iron for some bench press for example. Then I need to load up with carbohydrates. So that's the short answer, that's the short take on my views on carbohydrates or not. And yeah, as I said I will make more nutrition videos in the coming time. And if you watched this far I salute you and I encourage you to follow me on telegram. And also if you are in Sweden check out yourtonamenutrition.se to get some good supplements. And who am I? I'm the Viking of Wisdom XXO. Buu!


Het is stoon voor tijd. Ja. We kunnen gaan. De laatste presentatie in de Eredevroom voor vandaag. We zijn blij om Janik Kmoij, is dat correct? Ja.   Ja. Ik hoop dat je met mij begint dat er geen beste manier is om zo een lange dag te zijn dan met pointeren in alacis. At least, ik ben heel blij met dit project. Toen ik 10 jaar geleden in Edakar begon te werken op spark, had ik vorig jaar werken op analiseren van C++, C at Edakar, ik heb ook al werken op analiseren van Eredevroom. En in alle deze languages, eindde ik als een nachtmaar. En eindelijk, met spark, hadden we de language die kunnen worden analiseerd. Maar het was altijd zoals deze kleine stoon in jouw schoen, dat je niet pointeren in spark kan gebruiken. En dus hadden we altijd een look voor dat. En sinds de laatste 2 jaar hebben we werken om wat moeilijke pointeren in spark te geven en ik ga dat proberen. Dus wat is spark eerst? Het is een subset van FEDA, maar het is niet zoals andere subset, maar gewoon een koningstader.  En je kunt naar de vier functionele correcten van de kleinere deel van de code, van iets simpelers te ontdekken, die is een simulant koningstader gegeven je goede garanties over de code, zoals geen side effects in functions, geen gebruik van pointers precies. En als je tussen deze 2 gaat, je hebt hier wat we konden de bronze level, die je garanties over de initialisering van de data die je readen en de correcte data flows en geen aliasing. Aan de civil level, dat is over absence of runtime errors, dus dat is een groot deel. Dat is waar je de buffer flow, integer of flows, al deze soorten overflows en andere runtime errors die voor de veiligheid en de veiligheid zijn. En dat goal is waar je de probleemproperatie begint, dus als je je contract gebruikt, niet alleen voor dynamische vertrekking, maar als je de type invariant en programma contract probleemt. Dus de meer je gaat, de hoger het is voor de tool en voor de user, maar hopelijk de tool helpt je te gaan op deze camp. Dus waarom didn't we gebruiken pointers tot nu? Because that's the view of pointers for Spark. That's the view, in fact, of pointers for analysis. If you want to do sound analysis where you don't miss any errors, that's the view of the complexity of using pointers because you can end up with this mesh. But also of all the traps that pointers lead to. So in Ada, that's as point full pointer support, you can end up with double free, you can end up with memory leaks, you can end up with pointers in that point to the allocated memory. And there are a number of concepts in Ada features that help you avoid these problems. But still with unchecked allocations, so the Ada name for free, you have all of this. So there are uses for pointers in Spark. In particular when you have some data structures that need pointers because they need to grow, for example. So that's typical for containers that don't have a fixed size because they have elements that don't have a defined compile size. So for example strings or any indefinite type in Ada that you must point to. That's the same for class-wide types, so the objects in Ada that were mentioned before. Or because you have a recursive data type. So if you want to have your own list or tree or similar recursive data type, you need to use pointers. So what changes with ownership? So this concept that has been used in other languages, the most famous being Rust. What changes with ownership is that it brings these great crew solutions, so concurrently exclusive writes, which is exactly what you need to analyze code. So that's what already we're using in Spark for analyzing code with references. So references are these special pointers if you like, so pointers at the executable level but not at the source code level. That can be manipulated when you pass arguments to a function in-out, input or output. In that case, Spark already analyzes the calls to make sure that there is no conflicting aliasing between things through which you will write. So there will be only one writer in the function and if there's one writer there won't be any reader through another path. So we already do that in Spark for references. So of course for pointers we want to do the same. Same kind of non-analysing check with some addition because if you have pointers you can assign pointers all over the place. So you can create your own local aliases and this is the kind of thing we want to prevent and that's where ownership kicks in. So when you are going to assign a pointer to another object you're going to move the ownership. And if you stop that you can do useful things but you're still stuck. For example, if you want to traverse the recursive data structure without destroying it because each time you're going to move your current pointer you're going to destroy it. You're going to take the ownership of the things you had before. So what you need for that you need some local handles that will restore the ownership when the scope is finished. So when we borrow observe the data that maps to the rest concepts of multiple borrows or simple borrows. So what's provable with this pointer ownership? So we have a prototype right now and what you can do is you can write this kind of code with a pointer type that is in excess so that's the way to denote in Ada pointer to T. And you can implement this swap contents or swap pointers and so I don't show the code of the body but you can imagine very easily swap contents will swap what's underneath these two pointers by differencing them and using a temporary variable and swap pointers will simply swap the actual values of X and Y. That's why swap contents takes just input parameters X and Y and swap pointers takes in out because it will change the value of these objects. And so if you put the right precondition postcondition here not only you can prove with the Spark tool you can prove that all of these differences in Ada is dot all to the reference and objects are safe so the pointer is not null and you can prove what you usually prove with Spark absence of runtime errors in general and the contract so here that the postcondition holds so they are essentially the same except here you're repeating the nonality of the arguments and all this because we can assume thanks to the ownership system put in place that's when swap contents and swap pointers are called respective arguments are non-aliased that's very important here otherwise you cannot verify this implementation so that's what it does now let's look now at every one of these operations that I mentioned the move, borrow and observe operations so the move is when you assign a pointer so that's either assignment statement or when you're passing an out or in out parameter in the procedure and the thing that you're assigning from loses the ownership of the data and becomes unreadable and the ownership goes to the thing you're assigning to so for example the implementation of swap pointers can be this one I take a local variable temp here that takes the ownership from the value pointed to by x then I can write into x I cannot read x but I can write into x the value of y and then I can write in y the value of temp is correct so now if I make a mistake so for example here instead of writing temp in y I write y well y was moved already here so I cannot move it again it was moving to x so I cannot move it again and our borrow checker so our implementation of these rules in the compiler say that there's no sufficient permission for doing that the object was already moved if we make another mistake and now so instead of moving temp moving x so here y was moved in x x was moved in y so that seems not very useful but at least for these two lines that respects the ownership principles but when you return from swap pointers here it realizes so that's why it's pointing here to the spec file it realizes that there's not enough permission for x so x you're supposed to return to the color with this parameter there's no ownership of the underlying memory there's an implicit assignment and here it realizes that's not possible because it was moved here now let's listen to the borrow so borrow occurs when you're passing an input parameter of access type or pointer and temporarily the actual parameter in the call will lose ownership of the thing it points to and it will regain it automatically so it's an input parameter it doesn't change through the call the actual value of the pointer and there will be checks like for references before that there's no possible conflicting aliasing between the arguments so for example if I call this swap contents so swap contents was taking input parameters x and y are okay there are two different pointers here x and x is not and it will be code by the analyzing check now let's look at the more complex borrow the local borrow so we can define local variable here of an anonymous access type that's how we distinguish this from the move and here we're because we're writing that the ownership system understands that we are borrowing x into this local variable what it means that for the scope of the local variable x becomes unrightable and so here I can still write but through the borer to the underlying memory by x still but that it doesn't own so I can still I can implement swap contents like that let's look at what happens if I make a mistake so if here instead of local x the borer I mentioned the borer we I get an error that says that the object was already borrowed before and and that's all for borers finally last operation the observe the borrow here was the mutual borrow of rust the observe is just the regular borrow that's for passing parameters of a composite type so an array, a record or a combination thereof that has pointers in them here we're going to consider that the parameter only provides a real only view to all the memory underneath all the possible tree of data and that's the same for defining a constant of this type again the top level objects in Ada is immutable but in Spark for this ownership system we're going to consider that all the tree of pointed to data is also immutable that allows for more analysis and after the scope of the call or the scope of this constant ends then the original object recovers its ownership during this scope both objects the borer and the borer have read only permission so let's look at an example so yeah so this was for constant and parameter the more complex observer is the like previously the local observer and here we recognize it that's our choice of design by saying that it's local variable of an anonymous access to constant so not the name type like before and here instead of a move again we do an observe so y has a read only access to the underlying memory and during its scope y also has a read only access so I can read local y here and the memory pointed to and I could replace this local y by y so that works when I make a mistake so here so if I move the final assignments up inside the scope so here in the scope where y is observed it's an error to try to write through y so read only access to the underlying memory and that's what the borer checker says so there are some limitations we are only focusing right now on what we call inata pool specific types so not the general access type that's when you define the access type as all or constants because these are much more liberal inata and that would be much more complex in the rules for having proper support in Spark so it will be either limited or there won't be any possibility to take the address of a variable in the stack so that's the kind of things we're discussing right now to define the exact rules of what we want to allow and what we can implement in the checker in any case it will be less powerful than the system of rust we don't plan to have any annotation in fact we want to have something that integrates very well with existing code or code that is regular AIDA even if it's new and so we don't plan to have annotations for lifetime we want the borrowing observing relationship to be statically known some of these constraints come from the wish to have no additional annotations and some other come from the fact that we want to do something the goal is different than from rust we want to be able to do formal verification and so what about this statically known relationship is something very important otherwise you end up with things complex like what researchers do exploring formal verification or first end up with and there are things that are specific to AIDA so when we add these ideas to AIDA there are different types and for example array types when you take an element of the array when you move it you're going to mentally move all the array because you don't know which cell it is so if you want to for example swap elements in an array you will have to do it through a call so that the call hides the fact that two different elements of the array are moved you won't be able to do it just taking index i in a variable and then doing the swap locally so there are some kind of limitations that come from the limitation of the aesthetic analysis in terms of roadmap so what we expect to do by the end of this spring so may, june when we issue the net community release which now includes spark and the GPS and everything we hope to stabilize the reference manual rules so we're still working on this so if you want to have a look if you're curious that's there, that's online and I still a bit evolving to make sure that we have something sound that maps to the implementation to complete the implementation of the ownership checking so what I showed was what's working right now but there's still a lot of work to make it work in all conditions and to implement all the rules that are already defined and to adapt the flow analysis engine so spark goes in two different stages for analysis there's this flow analysis that does local static analysis simple one for all the flows reaching essentially the bronze level and then there's proof and the hood and to reach the higher levels of guarantees of silver etc we want to finish that flow analysis which we haven't started and for the next years we want to support local borough and observing proof which we don't do right now so it's more complex to support proof of our requisite data structures and here what you want to be able to do is to quantify over the contents of these things so for all elements of my list I have this property so that's more complex we have prototypes in the underlying technology Y3 and we have to leave that to spark and to check absence of memory leaks so the rules are set up so that we can check that by proof and we haven't done that yet and I think that's all thank you yes I think it's cool too so my question is about at the beginning of the talk you talked about use cases one use case was for example this container you don't know how much content will be in the container I wonder how does can you go back to your use cases explain for example is it possible to create an AVL tree or something like that and now with this new technique so it's planned but the proof support right now doesn't support requisite types yet it will so the 3 use cases that I mentioned well the first ones the first 2 ones are the easy ones that are supported already well partially because flood analysis is not there yet etc but just having a tree which is not recursive yes it's already supported so that's cool welcome yes so spark works locally so in order to be able to do this powerful analysis using SMT solvers you have to be modular otherwise do something else like symbolic execution that traverses the thing so we are in the realm of deductive verification where we really are looking at the piece of codes although we do things like in lining so there are ways to go around these limitations yeah yeah so that's the same what I just use the examples that use plain variable but the same applies to fields I mean that fields are followed individually so what we have in terms of implementation is that we unfold on demands the structure of the tree of the type to go deep inside the fields of given variable so you can borrow for example if you have something that points to points to


Hi, this is Nicole Rogalski from CalTV Entertainment, and as many of you know, it's Coachella season. Couldn't make it to Coachella this year or ever. Don't worry because I have some fun tips to bring Coachella to you. Coachella is so expensive, but with the price of tickets, transportation, housing, and food, to avoid the inevitable feeling of FOMO of not going to Coachella, just throw your money away. It's practically the same thing.   I'm sorry, but not really. If you go to Coachella, you have to camp to get the full experience. Or at least that's what I've heard. I've really never been to Coachella, so I'm kind of just going off of what I hear on the interweb and like for my friends. Anyways, my DIY tip for this is to not shower for a whole week and to sleep in a tent in your backyard. Cheap and easy. Oh, hey there, I have another tip for you. Purchase a strobe light and then project a concert onto a wall in your room, help all your roommates sing the words to the songs really loudly in your ears. Did someone say DIY crowd effect? No, but I just did, so it's okay. Skip all of your classes Thursday and Friday, maybe even Wednesday if you're feeling a little crazy to get that pre-Coachella rest. The best way to feel like you went to Coachella is to get behind on all of your schoolwork. This tip is honestly the easiest for me to accomplish and I'm really sorry, Mom. Not really. Well, I hope you learned some tricks of the trade of how to bring Coachella to your own backyard. Thanks for watching, I'm Nicola Rogowski with CalTV Entertainment.


Coming up on DTNS, Apple just goes and dumps a 16-inch MacBook Pro in its store. Chromebook users finding it cold in the shade that Apple's Phil Shiller threw. And Sony bringing back game cartridges. This is the Daily Tech News for Wednesday, Wednesday the 13th of November 2019. In Los Angeles, I'm Tom Merritt. And from Studio Redwood, I'm Sarah Lane. From my dark pit in Salt Lake City, I'm Scott Johnson. And from somewhere in LA County on the show's producer, Roger. Is that your sith name? Dark Pit. Dark Pit. Yeah. Ew. Hey, that's not what we were talking about a good day internet. We were actually just talking about why I irrationally want four terabytes of space in my laptop and other things like that. If you want that wider conversation, you got to get good day internet. Become a member at patreon.com slash DTNS. Let's start with a few tech things you should doubt. Alibaba released its secondary listing plan in Hong Kong. The company plans to sell 500 million new shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with an option to add 75 million shares subject to demand. Alibaba will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange as well, as it has since 2014. Sweet. I still get my stormtrooper outfits on there. The Windows 10 November 2019 update began rolling out to those who go in and request the update in Windows update. This update is mostly stability and performance improvements. It includes a managed notifications button for more control, like permanent mute from apps, that sort of thing. That'll be a welcome addition here for me. You can also hover over the start button without having to click and even or excuse me, add events to calendar from the task bar. That's pretty cool. File Explorer search has also been improved. Tencent reported a 13% drop in quarterly profit with falls in revenue from smartphone games, media advertising and computer games revenue. Tencent has faced tighter Chinese government control on games. That really has affected mobile. There's also a slowing economy in China and there's more competition for Tencent from ByteDance, who makes a do-it-in in China and that other one. What's it called? Tick something? Tick talk? Yeah, tick talk. That's it. Yeah, the advertising fall was blamed on unpredictability and releases causing lower intake on Tencent video. However, Tencent did see rapid growth in commercial payment services. Tencent's first profit fall since Q4 last year. Q4, bad quarter for Tencent the past couple of years. Revenue rose 21% to 97.2 billion yuan, but was still short of expectations of 98.2 billion. U.S. Federal Court in Boston ruled Tuesday that suspicionless searches of smartphones and laptops at U.S. airports violates the Fourth Amendment rule against unreasonable search and seizure. U.S. border officers must now demonstrate individualized suspicion of contraband before they can search a traveler's device. We'll see if that gets appealed. But so far, no word on that. All right, let's talk a little more about Google getting into the banking business kind of ish. Yeah, maybe not in the way people think. Google will partner with banks and credit unions to offer checking accounts as part of its project called CASH spelled C-A-C-H-E, like clear your cash, that kind of cash. Google will put the financial institutions front and center with customers, unlike programs like Apple Card. Google will gain insights from data and use that data to help the banks develop better products. Google does not use financial data, including existing data from Google Wallet and Google Pay as part of its advertising program. Google may also offer the loyalty programs on top of the bank offerings, as well as possibly waiving fees. Google is working with Citigroup, Stanford Federal Credit Union, among others. It kind of reminds me of their travel search situation right now, where you basically can just do a search for travel and it will hook you up with buying from the airlines. But Google isn't operating a travel agency. They're not operating an airline. I think what they're doing here is a little similar to that. They're going to have partners that say we'll offer checking accounts to Google customers. If you'll help us understand the customers data a little more, the data doesn't have to be Google's. It's just Google saying, yeah, we'll provide our AI services. That's one of the things we do to help you figure out more about your customers and hook us up with the customers. It's a marketing plan as well. There was a great article on The Economist this week about the fact that it is easier to set up an online only bank in Europe than it is in the United States, especially easier in UK, because they have laws specifically to help you set up an online bank. In the United States, you have to get a bank charter to set up any bank, whether it's online or not. And one of the things the bank charter usually requires is a physical presence. So when you see those online only banks, they're generally using another bank as the platform provider. And I think this is a way for Google to try to help bring online only banks to especially younger people looking for a new bank account by saying, hey, here's the ones that that have all those online only features you might want. Yeah, I think somebody who's a little bit more of the, you know, I care about my data and maybe slightly paranoid will say, OK, well, they're not using it for advertising, supposedly. But how what kind of insight are they gaining? And is this going to be an issue for me down the road? Yeah, potentially.  And I go, people still have checking accounts.  I'm so used to. I have a checking account. Yeah, the checking account doesn't mean you write checks. You may never write a check on your checking account, but it's the one that you can easily set up to fund all of your digital wallets. Right? Right. And it makes sense that that I guess they're still just called that, but I was kind of thrown by that first. I thought checking accounts are still a thing. But for me, my entire life revolves around a business account and a credit card, paying down that card every month, which I use to pay for all my services and whatever. And then you just pay that card off every month. I think a lot of people probably do that, but it never occurred to me. Not my 22 year old daughter. She has, she needs, she needs different kinds of services for the kind of sort of just getting started sort of life she's living. And this makes a lot of sense potentially if, you know, if the services are services she wants. So it'll be interesting to see how they do. Disney Plus announced it has more than 10 million signups since it launched on Tuesday. Now they were signing up people earlier. I think that's counted in here. But as of now, Disney says they have 10 million signups. Hulu, which Disney owns, reported more than 28 million subscribers in May. Netflix claims more than 60 million paid domestic members and more than 97 million international. So 10 million on day one. Not bad progress for that little upstart Disney. If you are still having problems with Disney Plus, we talk some about that. They seem to be going away, but I'm more.com has an excellent write up about why you might see the famous error 83 on Disney Plus. The first reason seems to be less of an issue as we hit day two of the launch. That's a server timeout. Now, it's not the back end. It's not the video server. It's DRM. DRM requires authentication more than just when you log in. Any time it's accessing an asset, it may check to make sure that you are authorized to access, even just showing you a thumbnail, it may do that. So if the authentication servers are overloaded, it may take a couple tries to get your video to play and pass the DRM check to actually reach the server where the video is, I'm more says, especially with a laptop, the first time you use it, there's a way that by the time you press play, the DRM check fails and so you have to just kind of go in and then try to play it again and it should have passed by then. It can also happen if you're using a platform that isn't supported by Disney DRM, so Linux can't use Disney's DRM, so it'll just keep throwing you everywhere 83 Opera the same way, less popular browsers. If you're using something that's a little less popular than the big four, you're going to have the same issue. I, it's funny, this must be the gamer in me, but I went into yesterday knowing I was going to have problems. I figured with the service this big, with this much hype around it and the fact that it's Disney in their back catalog plus new stuff plus the Mandalorian, I mean, like I could make a list nine miles long or the reasons people are interested in this, I just knew it was going to be a little bit rough. And so as soon as I logged in, it gave me an error and it showed me Wreck-It Ralph saying, sorry, things down. And I said, yep, this sounds about right. I'll check this in an hour. See how we're doing. I checked it. It was fine. I got in, watched about four episodes of The Simpsons and then it crashed again or gave me the air again. And then I thought, I'll wait another hour. But for whatever reason, none of this really bothered me. And I heard people online going, ah, they want to take on Netflix. They better be prepared to be as good as Netflix on day one. And I just kept thinking, I don't think this exists anymore. When you launched this big, like if Netflix was the Disney of today and they were about to launch their service, I guarantee you we'd probably have some outages or some problems, plus Cox had an outage for a while, so did Verizon. So there are other issues not related to Disney Plus that were causing some customer's issues. So I don't think it's that big a deal. And I don't know what that makes of me. I don't know if that makes me. Well, we kind of kicked around this, this, this whole conundrum on the show yesterday saying, I mean, what, what's the worst that can happen? The worst that can happen is someone's like, I'm not going to subscribe anymore. I'm out of here. It's unlikely that somebody excited about Disney Plus is going to do that because of an error within the first three days of launch, you know, and maybe even longer. And it doesn't mean that it's not super annoying and confusing for people. But I doubt there is going to be that much of, you know, a mass exodus because Disney didn't have their ish together. Yeah, I think, you know, I think we're going to see fewer problems today as fewer people are trying to sign up all at once, like we talked about yesterday. Now I've already started to see people turn their attention. Who was it in here? Somebody was saying, are they even making money off this with all the free users they're giving out of that 10 million? They don't have to. That's one of the things that I haven't thought about enough recently is Disney could give this thing away for free and make the money up on merchandise. That is essentially the way Disney makes money is we get you into our park. We get you into our movie. We get you into our TV show. And then we sell you stuff. We sell you plushes. We sell you lunchboxes. We sell you dolls. We sell you stickers. I mean, look around, take today and look for somebody wearing something Disney. I bet you will find more than one, probably multiple examples. So the 699 is just a way to like make sure that you defray some of the cost of this launch. But the success of Disney Plus is going to be how many people they can get into the gate. And then sell them more stuff because they're so excited about the Mandalorian or high school musical or whatever it is. Yeah, I mean, it's I was digging through it. And I'm I'm surprised how excited I am about things. I forgot Disney owned. So a movie would pop up and I'd go, oh, I didn't know they did miracle. The one about the Russian American hockey game that one time in 81 Olympics, whatever was like, I love that movie. And I forgot it was Disney. So I don't know. I feel like over the next few days, you're going to have a lot of discovery. A lot of people getting excited. You'll have a second wave of interest. They'll be more prepared for it. It'll come at a slower rate. The long term, a lot of outrage over older movies with culturally insensitive depictions, which Disney has already warned people about the cropping of the Simpsons and the first. Oh, yes. Stevens. Yeah. Big controversy there. We did get a lot of feedback from folks about the launch, some who either had issues logging in or didn't have issues logging in or had some thoughts about how it might have been handled better. Paul, the software entomologist wrote in and just again, lots of feedback here, but we only have time for one who said, I don't think it was purely a marketing decision not to have a prelaunch app ready for Disney Plus, because we talked about that yesterday. Maybe that would have mitigated some problems. Paul says, to do that, you either need the app done early, then you just flip a switch or you release an app to update the day of the launch with the first option. You have to have multiple platforms ready to go early with the second option. You have to coordinate a launch on multiple platforms still, so you potentially have the same problems anyway. Either way would be costly at Disney's scale. So kudos to the company for taking an agile software approach and just fixing bugs fast. Release early, release often. Yeah, he said he would have picked a rollout strategy by platform or by an invite system, but that has cost too. So yeah, I thought that was really smart of Paul to identify this as just an agile software approach. And at this scale, it's going to cause a lot of people to be upset that they haven't fixed all the bugs. But if they fix them fast, then I guess it's fine. Well, this might make some folks excited as well. A Sony patent patent filing from Let's Go Digital describes a solid state drive exclusive to Sony's PlayStation 5. So storage amounts ranged from one to three terabytes. The SSD slot in the PS5 would be easily accessible so that users could keep multiple SSDs handy. Sony has demonstrated near instantaneous load times in its SSD implementation in the PS5 and the company says it will release the PS5 by the holiday shopping season next year. So we don't know if this is going to be part of that, but it points to a potentially being part of it. Well, the way the design looks, it looks like it might have to be if implemented the way the design is.  Take your old Sega Genesis cartridge. Imagine something roughly in that shape, a little longer that you would plug hot swappable, presumably into the PS5 with tons of games. Let's say huge terabytes worth of games that you just can't fit all on one. So you're like, well, I want to play that other game, pop that out, pop the other one in like we're back to cartridges potentially, but in a very different way, a very different kind of implementation. And if it's simple and somewhat affordable, I could see this taking off. I know most PS5 users or PS4 users and Xbox one users. Most of the people I know that own those end up getting a secondary drive at one point, either external or internal. So expanding storage, especially as the prices come down, is not that unusual. What will be unusual is if Sony can get people convinced to do this with a proprietary ish SSD interface versus some other external, you know, Thunderbolt or USBC style interface. And maybe they do both. They've done that in the past as well. But I'm really interested to see how this gets implemented because we've not seen the chassis of the machine at all. There has been no hardware reveal other than specs. So we don't actually know if this has been implemented or if it's purely a patent request on something they'll never do. But we'll know by at least E3 next year, if not earlier. I hope they call it the Sony memory slab in honor of the memory stick. I mean, look, that thing was so successful. Why not? In an interview with CNET meant to be about the MacBook Pro's keyboard, Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller responded to a question about the phase or excuse me, the place of Chromebooks in the education market. Yeah, that's right. Chromebooks. Schiller told CNET's Roger Chang, not this Roger Chang, different Roger Chang, that Apple did a study and found that kids who are engaged have the best results and that cutting edge tech help them stay engaged. Schiller then said, quote, yet Chromebooks don't do that. Chromebooks have gotten to the classroom because, frankly, they're cheap testing tools and required for required testing. If all you want to do is test kids, well, maybe a cheap notebook will do that, but they're not going to succeed. Unquote Chromebooks cost the classroom about 150 bucks compared to the 299 for an iPad. Chromebooks have about 60 percent of the market share for laptops and tablets in the US as far as classrooms K through 12 are concerned. This is a case of why you need to make sure that the antecedent of your pronoun is very clear because people are hearing Schiller say, but they're not going to succeed. And assuming he means the kids and turning that into if kids use a Chromebook, they won't succeed in life, which is a horrible thing to say. I don't know that. I don't think that's what he meant. I didn't read it that way. They refers to Google Chrome Chromebooks. Yeah, the makers of the Chromebooks aren't going to succeed in helping kids because their Chromebooks aren't enough cutting edge and they can engage kids as much, which is still controversial, but much less. Well, the line says, if all you want to do is test kids, well, maybe a cheap notebook could do that, but they're not going to succeed. Meaning, as Tom pointed out, the books, not the kids. Right.  It's still a little tribal and weird, whatever. I mean, I feel like Apple gets a chance. Chromebooks are also more than cheap testing tools. I mean, you can do a lot with a Chromebook. So that is like, yeah, an executive from Apple would say something like this, but it's just a piece of junk. You know, that's all kids want. Well, you know, best of luck, everybody. But but but and that's not accurate. But I understand that Apple has to take the stance of will we go above and beyond? And you know, if you're not using our products, our services and our hardware in schools, then you're missing out. Yeah. And you're also paying half the money if you're not using us, which is an important point here. Like why wouldn't the schools give entire budget restrictions? Look at things like Chromebooks. The Chromebook in our house is my wife's favorite computer. She'd rather use that over everything. And I asked her why she says because it's simple and straightforward. And I don't worry about getting hacked every five minutes like I do on a PC. Hey, you know, it engages kids simple and straightforward and not getting hacked every five minutes. Not that Apple gets had iPads don't get hacked every five minutes. So that that's pretty much a wash. But but yeah, it's it's real. It's it. I would say the Chrome OS is simpler than the iPad OS at this point. Yeah. And it's fine for what it is. It's good.

The keyboard uses a one millimeter travel scissor switch. Goodbye butterfly mechanism that is used on the current 13 inch MacBook Pro still as well as the older MacBook Pros. You're also getting a physical escape key now to the left of the touch bar. And the arrow keys are in a T formation. Uh huh. The new MacBook Pro is point seven millimeters thicker than the previous one. So not much thicker, but a tiny bit bigger than the previous one. It has a redesigned thermal system with 35 percent more surface area on the heat sink. Fans that can push 28 percent more air through. So you're not going to have the heating issues that some people have had. You at least shouldn't. They maxed out the battery. The battery can only go to 100 watts under U.S. regulation. So they said we're just going to 100 watts. It only gets 11 hours of wireless web at 100 watts. So this thing is going to pull more watts than the older MacBook. But adding the extra 100 watts means that they can get an extra hour out of the battery. And also as a six speaker sound system, a three microphone array that they call good enough for podcasting, which I'm not sure if it's an insult to podcasting or an over estimation of their three microphone array. But the testing I've seen so far says it's better. It's a better microphone. I don't think it replaces a really good mic. 3072 by 1926 16 inch display. That fits in the same body size as the 2015 15 inch MacBook Pro. So the the most recent MacBook Pro was a little bit slimmer than this. But not again, not by much. And if you have a 2015 15 inch MacBook Pro, you're going to get a 16 inch screen in exactly the same size laptop. You can get a six core Core i7 or eight core Core i9 processor. You can choose from 16 up to 64 gigabytes of RAM and from 512 gigabytes up to eight terabytes of storage, the 16 inch MacBook Pro also completely replaces the 15 inch MacBook Pro in the Apple store starts at the same price at those minimum specs. It cost you two thousand three to ninety nine dollars. And if you speck it up to the max with all eight terabytes of storage, it's going to run you six thousand ninety nine dollars. They found my happy middle. I've been complaining about this for weeks. I almost went full PC on my on my production stuff. I could never find the software I needed to make that work right. So I just stick them with my old machine. It's aging out. I love Mac OS. I prefer it for a production environment, for audio, for art, for everything else. And I felt priced out of the market because my only options are I Mac Pro and the new pros Mac pros that are coming out at a minimum of six grand plus way more if you need a display and if you want their display way, way more and for a stand for that display. Another grand. So that thing was very expensive. Eight nine thousand dollars for a pretty minimum spec is not in my department. And the I Mac Pro is still starts at around six. So this has this is they came they swooped in with the thing that I think I can do this with. Like I didn't really want a notebook, but the truth is I just connect a big, you know, LG display to my existing Mac anyway, I'll just use that thing as a as a device that is my production machine, but I can take it with me if I need to. So I think they may have found me again. Yeah, one of somebody who was who was kind of in the market for a new laptop. I I I had yesterday. I was like, it's might come tomorrow. And then this morning I was like, boom, did. And he said, yeah, it's gonna be so heavy and traveling and do a lot of travel. And as you mentioned, Tom, this really isn't too different than a 15 inch Mac Pro that's a few years old. Yeah, it's slightly bigger, but it's mostly bigger in the display because the bezel is smaller. It's this is not something that was like the 17 inch Mac Pro of your, which I had one. And it is really hard to travel with, but it was also I mean, that's that's old news. It was also really great as a display, depending on what I was doing. And sometimes I was doing a lot of creative stuff on the go. And so maximizing the screen to a 16 inch Apple's obviously done, you know, they've done enough internal testing that they think that this is a sweet spot in order to get rid of the 15 because you wouldn't want you wouldn't want both. But but yeah, I I I feel like the size is polarizing, but maybe for the wrong reasons because people think, oh, it's just this huge laptop. I have a 13 inch road and 11 inch even MacBook. And it's not. I don't think it's the behemoth that that that that folks are worried about.  But if you like a 15 inch laptop, the 16 inch laptop is going to be the same size for all intents and purposes. It's just kind of better. If you have a four year old 15 inch MacBook Pro, it's going to be exactly the same size. It's not going to be any different. Yeah, it's really about specs and it's about that screen and whether you think that that give the fact that you're staying in the same form factor, yet getting an extra inch of diagonal screen is cool. I mean, for me, it's just that it's finally in a pricing place where spec for spec. Like I did I did this while we were getting ready for the show just as a quick comparison. But for me to spec out a MacBook Pro, the new one versus an iMac Pro to get roughly the same specs. And I know there are differences between, you know, the Xeon processors and all of that. But something close. I'm paying around fifty seven ninety nine for the iMac Pro and I'm paying with those same specs four thousand ninety nine for the for the notebook. And especially if you have an external display hanging out that can work, you know, that's nice. It's it's it's it's hard to justify that iMac Pro because I've done the same thing as you, Scott. And I want it, but it's just it's so much. But then also now the intern and that's with two terabytes of space. I didn't go the full aid or anything, but that's two terabytes on this on the way I spec the pricing out. That's with an upgrade on Ram to maximum sixty four. Currently I'm running thirty two, which I think still generally is a pretty good number for for Ram. But I'll go ahead and do that and still I'm can save a considerable money. So it's not exactly ideal because really I'll use it mostly as a shut clamshell over here with a bunch of stuff plugged into it. But that's the option they're giving me. And I guess I'm happy about it. I don't know. I'm still feeling. Well, I mean, there's always the the the fact of the matter is you can get a similarly specced laptop HP or Dell or or Lenovo for less money. It's usually not as much less money as people think because you can't really spec them out exactly the same. But it is more affordable to get windows. What what this is for is somebody who who prefers Mac OS and wants a professional machine and what I found most interesting about the way Apple pitched this. And I think this ties into the fact that they didn't do an October announcement is they are pitching these Macbook Pro Mac Pro and Pro display XDR and even that I Mac Pro as like truly professional options. These are for companies to buy. These are for freelance video editors to buy. These are not for consumers. And for a while, it felt like Apple was moving away from professionals because they were in they were empowering consumers to do great things with the tools that they have. And that was leaving professionals behind or like, wait, we we've got the money. We want to spec something out a lot higher. And it does feel like that's what they're doing now is saying, OK, we're going to make a Macbook Pro that is really for professionals. This isn't for the average consumer. They also announced that that new Mac Pro and display XDR are coming in December. So this is the new way of doing it. Professionals don't care about a big splashy announcement, right? You're not trying to bring in a wide net of people for these professional models. Professionals read the trades. They listen to shows like this and then they decide, OK, yes, that is the machine I want to have. So I think this is a smarter way for Apple to announce these things.  They wanted a scissor switch keyboard. They wanted more storage options. They wanted higher ram options. And they I think they hit it on all points for the professional here. I do, too. I guess I would just say part of me is bummed out that there's not. I liked that they were gravitating gravitating toward the middle, mostly for price. Also, people out there going, Scott, just build a hack and toss for half the price. I run a like reputable business. I can't do a thing that's like pretty dubious and illegal. Also, it takes a lot of time to maintain a hack and touch. It'll save you money. But if the money you save is lost because you spend the time make maintaining that. Right. Yeah, it's like it's time is money. Yes.  And I just I think I'm I'm in a weird position where I'm both happy and sad that they are focusing on professionals again. But then it makes some of us who feel like we were kind of in the little middle pro area going, oh, I can't afford those. And these are too slow.  So this is the closest they've gotten to that middle again, and I'm happy for that. I mean, the Mount costing two hundred dollars. I was rolling my eyes pretty hard. But. Oh, well, you know, get what you get. A lot of things are expensive out there. Hey, thanks, everybody, who participates in our sub reddit.

This one is from Halloween 2 in the beginning. It's sort of the end of the first that's continuing. I shot him six times! I shot him six times! I shot him in the heart! This man, he's not human! I shot him six times!


This research has developed a new type of lightweight nanostructured aerogel material which can be used as an effective EMI shielding material. This material consists of ultra-thin cellulose nanofibers and transition metal carbide or nitride, emzene, particles. These particles are arranged in a way that allows them to form a structure similar to the nacre of a pearl. This structure provides excellent electrical conductivity and interfacial polarization, resulting in a very strong EMI shielding effectiveness. Additionally, this material is extremely lightweight and has a low density, making it ideal for use in applications where weight and size are important considerations. This article was authored by Jer Huizheng, Changxian Wang, Gilberto Sikara, and others.


Hi there, this is Pastor Vlad and Lanna here. We are super excited to invite you to the Race to Deliver conference. I'm going to tell you how that conference began. About three years ago we started our conferences in the spring and that conference originated from the verse in the Bible where it says that God would raise judges to deliver the children of Israel from their oppressors. And so we really believe that in this conference God wants to raise a generation to be the deliverers of their generation for deliverance, healing and salvation. Three years ago, our first conference, we just had it in our church and we were the ones that were ministering the whole conference. People were healed. I remember one guy who had asthma all his life, you remember the guy who got healed and till this day, completely waxing his healing. Last year we had Apostle Genchi who came, we rented a track, a larger facility and a lot of people came out and a lot of great things happened. Healings happened and just really, really amazing things took place. And this year we are so excited for 2017 Race to Deliver conference. One of the things that I'm super excited is the Saturday morning we're going to have a special youth service for the youth. And with that, after the youth service, we're going to be going out to the mall, to Starbucks, coffee shops on the streets and evangelizing. It's going to be practical evangelism, meaning we're going to pray for the sick on the spot, we're going to heal people, Jesus will heal people through us and we're going to save people right on the streets. If you're a pastor watching, we have a special service that will be just for the pastors with John Chi, where it's going to be a service for impartation, where he's going to pray for them. We're really excited, it's going to be on Saturday. And so awesome things will happen. What else is going to happen at this conference? We are so excited that our worship team is actually launching their first album, music album. We are super, super stoked about that and you will hear it if you come. Yeah, and it will be available after the conference. So this conference is going to be incredible. We are praying for it. We're expecting every one of you there. If you are interested in it and you have more questions, like where to stay, about the prayer line and hotels and everything, all that information is on our website, hungrygen.com slash conference. Click on the frequently asked questions and you will see all the questions that you have will be answered. We hope to see you there.


The entire Lakeland News viewing area saw widespread snow last night up to six inches in some area. The winter storm caused the city of Brainerd to declare a snow emergency. But what exactly does that mean? Clayton Castle tells us. The snow has fallen and now the cleanup begins. Late last night, the Brainerd city engineer declared a snow emergency to aid in plowing the streets. We revised the language so that when I declare a snow emergency, there are certain parking restrictions on streets that we have designated on certain days. The snow emergency has broken up into two days allowing for plow drivers to plow certain streets and routes. And on a day one of a snow emergency, so if I declared it at 5 a.m. on the first day, we plowed north and south streets in Brainerd and anything west of the Mississippi River and in our industrial park. The second day is reserved for the east and west streets. For those who don't comply with the snow emergency, there are consequences. If someone gets plowed around on one of those snow emergency routes, we actually will take it and tow them immediately. The snow emergency is a larger effort to avoid problems the rest of the winter and into the spring. We have our plow drivers have certain routes they take. We still try to plow the whole city in a day. But this gets cars off certain streets on certain days so we can plow them curb to curbs. We don't run into issues come springtime. In the end, the city engineer says the snow emergency is important to maintaining safety on the roads after major accumulations and that your help is needed to make that happen. The real purpose of the snow emergency is to get cars off the streets on certain days so we can actually plow the whole street curb to curb. Now only when all the streets are plowed after the second day will the snow emergency be declared over. Reporting in Brainerd Clayton Castle, Lakeland News. The previous ordinance had a set snowfall total for declaring a snow emergency, but the new revisions call for a snow emergency to be declared at the discretion of the city engineer.

Hey everybody, what's up in this video? We're going to wrap up the behind-the-scenes on the dark artifact video series with five Lessons that I learned while making my first Star Wars fan film. So let's get started All right So the number one thing that we want to start with is make sure that you have a full story that you want to do I've started lots of projects that I didn't quite know what I was going to do We started trying to shoot some stuff and we got about halfway through and didn't quite know what we were doing and the product Really shows it's really just kind of trying to throw something together Without really knowing what you're doing. It's not really going to work for you very well So in this case we actually used the Dan Harmon story circle to create this entire Story ahead of time so in the first part of this series we go into all of that how we wrote the story using the story circle And I will link that below in the description for you so that you can see that it was super helpful to do that We actually knew where we were going to go with the story and that helped us in the second part Which was to creating the storyboards made that part a whole lot easier So this brings us to the second thing that we learned from this experience and that was creating storyboards is super helpful So for this we just took some blank paper. We just drew some rectangles We you know took our story circle and we just started to break down the story into these chunks that we knew You know, these were the things that we were going to need to film This was the way that we sort of envisioned all of this to work And it was very very helpful for us to see what locations we were going to need What pieces we weren't really going to be able to film what we were going to have to fill in with something else and You know just in general it allowed us to take that simple story from the story circle and to lay it out into these frames So that we could actually begin to start visualizing and seeing what this was going to look like in the end So the third thing that we learned here was all about camera angles and camera trickery You know making someone believe that you are in a different situation is a cool thing about movie making It's actually one of my favorite things is to be able to you know only show You know your story through you know a very small frame anything else could be going on outside of that Nobody has to know they only see it through this one little view and you can completely craft that to tell whatever story that you want And so in this case we were able to use just a blue screen and some you know dramatic lighting We were just in a condo in Florida an extra refrigerator, but all of a sudden we are transported to a sith temple where the story is Taking place so camera trickery great tip study it learn it. It's very very useful So the fourth thing that we learned here was you know You really just can't shoot everything sometimes You know you're gonna have a flyover scene or you're gonna have a wide shot or something that you really just can't film on your own And so in these cases you know don't be afraid to use some stock footage You know make sure that you're licensed of course in this case I have a story blocks license that I use all the time so since we're not trying to make any money off this It just made sense for us to look through there Try to find some things that would make this process a whole lot easier for us And as I show in our special effects video we're able to grab several things off of there including you know This Mayan pyramid that became our sith temple You know a flyover of a jungle which you know was our spaceship entry the spaceship itself Which was actually a green screen spaceship that was already available lots of things like that You know that I really didn't have time to try to create these things on my own So for this project just since we were trying to do it in just a few days The stock footage was great highly recommend it and I'll use stock footage in Probably all of my projects going forward because it was just so easy So and then the fifth thing that we learned in this is that you know this video is not going to be perfect We are not experts. This is not our job to do this We're just learning how to do this on our own just for fun So you know just be happy with whatever you can do try to get better Don't wait to put this out until your effects are perfect. They're never gonna be perfect You know you are not a team at ILM You know you are not the people who actually creates Star Wars, you know well, I mean maybe you are but I'm not You know so for in this case. We're just learning. We're just doing this You know sure it looks kind of funny and whatever But you know next time will be better and the time after that will be a little bit better And so it's just a learning process But the main thing is you know, it's not gonna be perfect Don't sit there and just nitpick it forever Actually, just do something and just put it out and be happy with it You know it's still better than what 99% of the people are putting out You know in fact, you know if you don't like this Star Wars film put yours in the comment I would love to see it, you know, I would love to learn from other people who are doing this This is just a learning experience. So, you know ball means take these five tips and you know, create your own of Short stories or fan films, whatever you would like to do, you know But just the point is just create just get out there and do this stuff This is the whole point of this channel is to show people how to do this type of thing Show that it's easy, you know and show my mistakes and my successes and learning how to do this So make sure you subscribe if this is your first time here and drop this video a like if this has been helpful And we'll see you next time


And with the plan of a third force as an alternative for the two major political parties in Nigeria, ahead of the 2023 elections, a political analyst and professor of political science, Bayero University kind of state, Professor Kamil Lu Fege, who was at a guest at the breakfast spoke of the possibility of a third force ahead of the general election. It depends on how tough they are and how serious they are in trying to actually form a third force, if we can call it. Because from the look of things, they haven't come out clearly to say that they want to form a party, but they say they are trying to have like a crazier group, composing on people from different parties, so that they will come and make sure that credible people are elected in 2023. The time is rather a little bit late, because if you look at the calendar of INEC, they don't have sufficient time to try to replicate what happens in 2015. Trying to come back support to form a solid political party that will continue with the two major ones that we have now. Okay, whatever the all the reasons behind their coming together, let me eat a little bit. If we look at it, it's likely going to be an old wine in new bottle. Third force, given the nature of multi-party democracy, I think it's necessary. We should have major parties that can compete among themselves, that can give the electorate a...


The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Wright and Reben Jamun Khalia's urge for synergy among the three branches of government to create a suitable national constitution for the country's growth and development. Khalia opened a two-day retreat for legislative aides in Abuja, ordering them to contribute to the sources of the Executive Legislature and did the sharing. Our nation's democratic values. So you must carry it with pride, you must represent me and represent the office and the nation. An essential asset of your duties lies in economic advisory. We are tasked with dealing with complex issues surrounding projects and budgets. This duty requires an in-depth understanding of our national economy, like one of the speakers mentioned a few minutes ago, strong analytical skills and a commitment to promoting sustainable economic growth. Now the Clerk of the National Assembly orders our legislative aides to perform their functions professionally while EU ambassadors and echoers are promised assistance in electoral reforms, democracy and inclusivity, particularly regarding women's participation. On one hand the retreat is organized to provide senior legislative aides with opportunities to engage in combination that foster intra and the interchamber synergy in the National Assembly with the aim of achieving success and on the other hand it is to enhance the intellectual abilities and skills of senior legislative aides to facilitate effective collaboration and enhance the delivery of legislative services. In conclusion I am confident that this power part of the retreat will reshape your thinking and significantly contribute your capacity development to a great increase in productivity towards accomplishing a legislative agenda that the people's house has set to achieve. In three of these key areas where we are ready to synergize our efforts with you. First elections as the largest democracy in Africa, Nigeria is critical to strengthen democratic governance in West Africa where democracy is under threat, strengthening and deepening Nigeria's democracy is key to reverse the situation and send a powerful signal to the region. So the Honourable Deputy Speaker, we look forward to working together with you to synergizing our efforts to further strengthening and improving the electoral process in Nigeria based on the lessons learned from the General Election of 2023. Now for Honourable Deputy Speaker's advice legislative aides to now remain loyal to their principles for successful constitutional duties during our two the retreat ending in our budget tomorrow. I remember because most of the people 65% of this is I don't believe that the right of them to struggle to survive. Look at me and trust they are giving this responsibility. At the end of the day you will find another bloc writing letters to agencies seeking for one favour or the other, would add a concept or even knowledge of the chief of staff, let alone its empty speaker and this brings down the image and impetition of the institution we all are working for. I want to beg of all of us, not to find our center there. So rest in that this speaker has higher responsibility than you have in the Senate because it shares the committee of the whole, which is a very, very, very, very important responsibility and so we can't share the committee of the whole, the committee of the whole means the deputy speaker is supposed to be nominated on several subjects, monetary, economy, security and culture and so that's why it has it. So the it is supposed to help the deputy speaker every session and breaking his attention to things that he can do. So you get notified about fresh news updates.


Pittsburgh Steelers. Ironically on this team Antonio Brown is not starting. Juju Smith, Antoine Randall L, Jonte Johnson and Manuel Sanders basically a 99 overall wide receiver corp. We got Levion Bell and guess what university you went to. Yep that's the biggest one in the nation, Michigan State University. Michael Vick appears on a lot of teams it feels like.  But hey whatever. Defensively we have some of the best legends ever. Kevin Green, Ryan Shazir, Devon Bush, TJ Y, Paul Amalu, Mel Blunt, Stephen Tewitt, Jivon Hargrave, Meme Joe Green, Cameron Hayward, Cameron Hayward, Joe Hayden, Rod Woodson. How many 99s is this? This might beat the record. The record I think was the chiefs team. One, two, three, four, so that's six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11. Is 11 the record? I'm thinking 11 is the record. A 96 overall Steelers team. I like this a lot. Anthony thank you so much for letting me use the team. Anthony is an all-star so this could be quite the game right here. Let's do it. Top three is Woodson, Juju, Michael, Vick. What's my opponent got? Have a theme team bro. Oh he does it. It's got a squad though. I'll say that. We do get the kick return. That's a bad kick. Rod Woodson's got a lot of room. Oh okay. You know what? Maybe it was the perfect kick since I fumbled already. Ooh look at this slip screen. Look at how he weaves. Ooh I've never seen that. All right let's do it. Uh-oh that's a blitz. This could be bad. No I didn't get to it. It's so open that was like a touchdown. All right we're gonna hit a manual sanders here on this bubble. Is it there?  Okay well this is. Okay Anthony I'm sorry man but this is a rough start. Third and 20. I'm gonna try this drag under play. Do I expect good results? Honestly no. There is a QB spy. Why is kind of open maybe? Nope. Dropped it. Hey Steelers has a nasty defense. I'm not too worried. I thought that'd be inside zone. It's not. It's an out route. You know I've never seen anyone throw an out route in this game. That's pretty crazy. Crazy play call. It's either inside zone or it's an out route. It's not inside zone. Oh get there! Palamalu! Big hit that's fourth and two. You want that field goal my friend? You should take it. It's free. It's right there. He ain't taking it. Okay. Okay I like this play call. We're gonna go a cover two.  No inside zone. It's slants. Go get him. I've got these clamps. No. I had them all locked up. That one really hurts. I'm going Mink on Kyle Murray. Oh it's a pitch. We ain't there and and we ain't even close to there. All right Rod Woodson. I would like it if you did not fumble this time. He goes from big hitter fumbling to returning a kick. What a savage bro. Hey he show boated on me when he scored a berry so I gotta do it right back. Return to sender. I feel like it is unnatural how many kicks I return. I feel like I'm pretty bad at some aspects of this game and I'm really good at kick returns. Let's see if he can do the same thing though. Loser. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe you can just kick return release in this game.  That's really cool. Okay so one guy missed.  He's in five wide. Kyler Murray gets sacked by Cameron Hayward. All right that's a good start. We've been struggling so it's good to see that. Second at 19. He goes with a handoff here and cuts it back. Whoa. How did you get those yardage on that play? This is a run of some variety. Can we get there? Oh my god. This is this is silly. This is silly. What's happening then? First in ten. Let's see if the real game. Oh my god. What is this guy doing to me bro? I'm getting bullied. All right third and two. I'm staying with the inside zone. I think it's going to be there. Okay lots of room on the edge.  Let's get this touchdown before half. I'll feel good about that. Ooh I like this idea. Especially with how much he's been just cooking me with these blitzes. Okay right there. What a throw. No Barry's still in. Shit. That's supposed to be LeVion Bell. It didn't matter though. That was all a Michael Vick play so whatever. Let's get to that second level block. Yes sir. Cut it back. No great play by him. LeVion Bell. I miss you baby. Let's see it. Oh yes sir. So much room. No what Buddha Baker. How did you get that tackle? I'm mad. Emmanuel Sanders. You want to grab this one? Who wants it? Oh he's sent. Laney A. He missed. I'm hitting him. No. Bad. No. Isn't that dashing dead eye? How is that mad at dashing dead eye throw right there? Fourth and goal. I'm going for it. I know this might be a little unorthodox but I want this TD bro. I want it bad. Ebron. Hit him. Damn. It is not there. Damn.   What is it? Is it a touch pass? No. It's a Kyler Murray dude and I was that. Oh my god he fumbled. Why did he fumble? It's that easy.  It's winnable. I'm going to QB Spy with TJ Watt and we're just going to play straight up defense. Okay. Bombs won. That's my ball. Dude. Don't slap that.  I hate when they do that. All right. This is definitely a smart call on the punt but I'm thinking if I can return this we can get at least a field go out of this. So 23 seconds left. Three timeouts. Oh he's going with the fake.  Joe Hayden all the way. Joe Hayden all the way. One stop. Oh. I got three timeouts though. I'm in an excellent position here. No QB Spy. No QB Spy. Vic takes it out. We got six seconds on the clock. We got another timeout. Wow. What are you running? This should be an Antoine Randall L touchdown. Easily. Yes sir. How is it 20 to 21 to 21? Like how? This game felt like just the biggest loss and we're pulling it together. Oh is this that touch pass bubble screen again? Oh no it's not. He hands off to Barry who I don't even know what happened there but I think Rod Woodson can get this angle. Wow. Good human joystick but he ran right into Troy Palamalu. Oh that was the last play in the quarter. Oh my god. I didn't even know. I'm so glad I didn't know. I think I would have freaked out if I knew. He's gonna go left side with Barry. I've got a lot there. Somebody will make the tackle. He's getting way more yards than he should be getting on these runs though. Third and three Palamalu is having a field day hitting this dude. I think this is either a counter or a pitch. It's not. It's neither. He throws underneath. That's not going anywhere. Fourth and three. What's he gonna do here? Is this a run? I would run it if I was him. Fourth and three. It's a slip screen but Shaz is on it. Let's go. I was down 21 to 7. I'm on a 21-0 run right now. Come on. Come on. Keep your spine. Keep your spine. Keep your spine. Or Blitz. I'm gonna hit you. That was so sketchy. That was the side his user was on so I felt really scared throwing that but it totally worked. Big balls. Big rewards. That's my new saying. I just came up with it. We're going with it. I'm gonna rifle Ebron in the back. Vance McDonald. Big balls. Big rewards. 35 to 21. How have you let this game slip my friend? Oh the fake weird looking handoff but the defense flies on the Steelers team. I don't know what he's gonna look for here. So play action. This is not even a little bit open. Oh I said it wasn't even a little open and you threw it. If I'm being honest.  Oh no I missed him. I was there to make that tackle and I missed him. I'm just gonna use the whole middle with Palomalu and send the Blitz. Oh good D. Let's go. Great job boys. Finally learning how to contain this very Sanders. Good lord. I don't know what he's going with here. Are you really running it? Oh the pitch. He scored on this earlier but Palomalu and Kevin Green are there. You have marched all the way down this field my friend. Are you gonna get stonewalled on the red zone? For your sake I hope not. Covered it. Covered it. Covered it all. Fourth and 11. All right T.J. Wah on the QB spy. I got the dig. I got both the digs and I got that. Rob Woodson almost lost it but it wouldn't have mattered. I expect him to rage quit now since there's really no point in playing this out. Pittsburgh Steelers with a huge dunk. We went from 21 to 7 to 35 to 21 and unanswered 28 points. Hey Anthony thanks for letting me use your team. You're now 4 and 0. You're welcome. Boys I'll see you in the next show. Thanks for watching as always. Peace out.
