While using Elementor, you need to get your settings right. For example, the site identity is going to talk about what you see here. For example, if I go to my website, I see that the site name is listed as my blog, but I could change this to my business name so that that is what people see with me get to my website. So I'm going to reload this and just visit my website and you'll see now it has taken a repress right here yet in the settings, I just changed the site name. You can also change the vision or the description of your site and say, this is a channel for WordPress things. And once I do that, I can update and notice that once I reload, this is already live for my site. Now, the other things that you can add to your site like a logo or a favicon and the favicon is it's a little logo that shows up there. So let me just use this for my media, update it. If we go and reload here, you'll see that we have this little favicon showing up and we make it look much better inside that browser. So you can do the same thing if you have a logo to add your site and that will show up here. So that's how we deal with the site settings inside our Elementor. You can also choose to have a background that can either be a type of color or it can be an image. So for example, a color or it can be an image you choose by uploading here and you'll have it over. So you can choose to either position it in the center or choose to repeat it across the site or you can choose it to have a different feel depending on the size of the image. You can choose its size, whether it contain and just stay within the boundaries of the site or to cover by having one big image going all over. So you can center it and give it different position depending on how your image and how you want it to look on your website. So you can also choose a gradient and that would show up inside your site. So let's say you choose one color to be black and then you choose the other to be pink. You can have it in different locations by adjusting this to know what kind of gradient you're going to have and you can change the angle from all across different directions. And that's how you make sure that your background looks as you always wanted it to be. In the settings again, you can choose your layout and determine what width you want to have your website to be. So I can choose to increase it and make it 12 by 80, 12, 80 pixels wide and then the height will go as much as my content will take me. So you can also choose to have a different space in between the widgets by setting it here and you can also add different breakpoints for the mobile and the tablet. Maybe your mobile has to be 250 and then your tablet will be 760. Now you can research more about the breakpoints you want by looking through Google to find out what you want but these are mostly the usual breakpoints that we do have. In the settings, we also can set up for our images to be handled by lightbooks. Now lightbooks essentially makes all the images that you have on your website clickable, expose a bigger image. So let me show you by example, I'll save this, come back here, add an image from my widgets to this point and I'm going to add a relatively smaller image. I'm going to choose to reduce this in size and maybe say it was a thumbnail and I'll left align it. Now I'll link it to the media file itself and I can choose to make it a lightbox. So what happens is that whenever I click on this, it pops up with that ease in and exposes it into a bigger image. So in your site settings, you can choose to have lightbox stand on all your images so that they can easily pop up and they can do the different things. So you can even add a title, you can add a description to the image so that it's more interactive with the people that are using it. So for example, we have the title here and the description of our images. So if I choose to have none for this and update this, when I click on it, you will see right down here, we no longer have our title and our description showing up because I've disabled them inside the lightbox. So this gives you a general feel of what will be across the whole site. You can change the text color on the lightbox and make other settings in here. Now, if you want to attach custom CSS, maybe well advanced with this, you will need to have the pro version. There is a link inside this video description for you to support the channel by buying from Elementor, the pro version, and you can use it so that you can add your custom CSS to your website when you use it. So if you don't know much about custom CSS, you don't need to worry about that. But this would be a good feature for people who are developers. And lastly, if you choose to add additional settings, they open up inside Elementor in the admin area, and you will see all these different settings that you can add to your style to advance and be able to do much more with your Elementor from this point forward. But the basics of using this box, the settings box, the site settings is essentially that.  So if you enjoyed the video, please give it a thumbs up, share it with your friends, and don't forget to subscribe if you haven't yet to this channel. Thank you for watching and enjoy your day.

Yeah, so I applied for another job With a big brother big sister and You know as long as I can work remote That would be fine With that job because it pays like 120,000 a year And I think it's right up my alley especially seeing how I have a A patent pending program that I wrote designed to help families who are at risk of dissolution Children going through the reunification process and for parents in need of parenting classes that I could bring along with me Two big brother big sister And you know pay is great And I think it's you know, it's right up my alley for you know psychology and my love for children Yeah The the thing is it was it was like if he if it is Have it only had things I think so many days a year Three weeks Having that off that would be a real complex if he couldn't work from home Because where would we fit in that?

He'll pick up the guitar And uh, it's a prop for him basically It'll he'll be making these chords with his hands and I'll just start laughing because what he's doing with his hands If you're a guitarist, you know, that's not even a chord So I'll see him holding the guitar and strumming like he's making a chord and I'll just start laughing But it gets me to smile when I'm on stage And it's awesome.  Yeah, so yeah Yeah, yeah So you could get some gigs out of that. Couldn't you mean that's what they're hoping for is Well, he he played recently, I guess he gets gigs at On a regular basis at this one posh hotel Here in sarasota called ovation and uh It pays really well and goes the next time i'm there. Do you want to play with me? I'm like, hell, yeah, I'm in I'm in. Yeah, I'll do it so We'll see you've wanted this for a long time. Haven't you with your friend brian? It's a well with brian. Yeah, that would have been great Yeah, yeah Well, maybe it will still happen you know Yeah, maybe you said about um nowhere to practice though, didn't you but um Yeah Well, it you know with just chucking me it's easy to do Because I can just learn my part and Yeah, you know, yeah, that's all I have to do is know my part and it's easy And at the ovation it's not just country. We can do anything from Which I know I actually know some of this older stuff like the platters and frank frank sinatra Because I played it for my parents when I recorded their 65th wedding anniversary video I Got the backing tracks for a platter song and frank sinatra song So I could actually play that kind of stuff, but we could play that kind of stuff Over at this hotel ovation. We could do hendrix if we wanted to there so like music that is Does he mind that That guy does he sing that as well? He said that he's the one that told that to me. I'm like, oh I'll sing hendrix if he doesn't want to I that I can do I can sing a little but Yeah It's all happening darlin. It's all moving since Since you've come out of that That um cloud it's all shifting So the energy's shifted hasn't it so yes And I was I was having fun lady virgo. Yeah I'm sorry. I'm sorry Just That's a great amp though, you know, he he had good taste in guitar amplifiers Yes, john lennon was Libra. So we're both lead singers Well, both of the main lead singers for van halen david lee roth and sammy hakar are both Libras Yeah I missed the joy that I had watching my son play his guitars. Ah Yeah, I still take my guitar to the beach, which I probably shouldn't now that We're going to be having paying gigs because it's just going to ruin my guitar And I don't have a backup So I know Yeah, and if you look back I had two other uh guitars, they were both black And uh, they were just a little different one from the other. They were both fernandez guitars All the guitars I've been playing for a number of years. I've been fernandez. I love that brand But uh, yeah, um, both of those ferment fernandez guitars Got ruined basically because I brought them to the beach all the time Please be Greg and it's great for your high vibe. Yeah, definitely and chuck is such a great guy He's one of my beach buddies. He and I are like he we look like we could be brothers, you know Brothers from another Yeah Yeah, no, I think it's good. I would love that. I'm not going to say no I would love that Yeah You looked at guitars over here, didn't you when we was um, we went up um, home by hind street Went to the guitar shop there Yeah, yeah Yes They had some nice guitars there Yeah I wouldn't know nice one from a not nice one to be fair. I wouldn't know Yeah, unfortunately My parents when when we were little they bought us acoustic guitars with nylon strings, but the strings were like This far off The neck they weren't down here.  I thought, you know, when that's your first guitar You think all the guitars are like that Then my grandfather when I was 12 bought me my first electric guitar And but it was basically just and and amp But it was basically just a loud Acoustic because it didn't have distortion on the amp the amp wasn't that powerful And I didn't understand distortion. I didn't understand how to get my guitar to sound like You know, jimmy page from led zeppelin And it was wasn't until my sister's Boyfriend david who was a drummer, but he also played guitar He had a fender stratocaster and a fender twin reverb amp That he showed me that and uh and distortion and Everything took off from that point Yeah I um, I got to to meet tina the other day We did a reading so Yeah, just disco tina disco tina. Yeah, it was uh, yes, she's so lovely. She's so bubbly and Um, I think we got on really well didn't we tina? Yeah This is lovely. She's got an indoor pig.   Oh, it's not the same one. Oh, I'm so sorry. She's got the same kind of name Oh Oh, that's I'm so sorry love I'm sure I get to meet you one day Hi more I'm getting on late. I wanted to tell you that I loved your post and You three sounded really awesome. I watched the video several times. Oh, thank you. Yeah, I appreciate that thank you But I mean this could go, you know, you could do weddings and all sorts, couldn't you like yeah well Corporate gigs are what we would really want because they have like stipends for You know, they they're allotted like up to like ten thousand dollars To get entertainment, you know, we could do it for you know charge three or four thousand dollars or whatever Yeah, this could be the job that you're looking for.  Yeah Yeah, it's not gonna happen overnight We got to learn a lot a lot of songs anyway, so Well, I I do chuck already knows them Yeah, yeah So keep visioning these names at the bottom guys keep putting lots and lots of you know positive energy in to these names Claudette says my father-in-law played bass guitar. He lost a finger and they changed the position of the strings So he could still play they changed the position of the strings How do you change the position of the strings? It's all to do that that it's all to do with that I would think that it's like you've got a wooden wooden bridge thing, haven't you I would have thought Yeah, that's what i'm thinking like down here On the top Well, it'd be there and here they'd be on both ends So I'd imagine you'd make that narrower You'd bring them in tighter So you wouldn't have to reach as much because a bass guitar is four strings, but they're You know, it's like that wide and you know if you made it less wide Maybe it'd be easier for a person with one less finger I guess That's cool that they did that so they didn't lose out Yeah, yeah good I saw this dude on The johnny karson show the most impressive guitar performance i've ever seen Oh, wow, okay, he played stairway to heaven by led zeppelin With his feet. He didn't have any arms and he played it better than 99 percent of the people with arms Did they adapt they must have adapted that guitar as well surely probably probably Made it open tuning to like, you know, maybe a g or some I don't know What, you know, it was probably open tuning, but still I challenge anyone to play stairway to heaven with their feet I couldn't play with anything Yeah, absolutely no way Oh So we'll be doing global predictions later on this evening. So if there are any questions have a think about them and Let us know Yeah, you can go over there right now and start posting them How do they go How how do they do that? Go to the m5d youtube channel the the video is already listed For I got you Yeah, you can post it in the Live chat there or you can post it below the video either way. We're gonna see it And that way we can scroll back if you post it here, uh, there's no guarantee I'm just reading barb's comment then Um, what do we do if our love did not incarnate with us? Well, I was given some important information actually recently about that. So are you talking about your twin? If you're talking about your twin, I've got information. It's um I was told That due to the changes of of the earth at the moment That your twin Um, if they didn't incarnate down here with you Sometimes they come down here as a walking So anybody heard this before but this is what my guides have told me So that could be for you know a lifetime together or it could be um like a moment, but Yeah, so you still may end up getting that um That energy of your twin coming in So Yeah, but you're still it's still a perfect partner moment, isn't there? So You know that's when I do the readings and um I'm doing the beginning middle and end of each month And if somebody wants me to include You know love life in that to find out what's happening with their partner now if they haven't got a partner Then I will be asking for what's happening with their perfect partner So that's perfect partner for them right now So, um, I then say, okay, so this is the this is what they're doing. This is the life lesson That they're emotional life lessons that they're learning at the moment And it calms people down because they're thinking Um, why are they not coming to me? I'm ready. I've been ready for a long time But when you look into them And you're doing a love life reading you're looking into their perfect partner You can sometimes clearly see that they're in the middle of a lesson And you're thinking I've learned that lesson years ago. They really are not ready for me It calms you down And it makes you more patient because you think well Um, you know, obviously, you know, we've still got stuff to do That doesn't mean so it's going to take years and years for them to catch up with you spiritually Because we're we're learning this really quickly all the time So, you know, just I don't know if that answers what you will mean That's fascinating actually, you know, I I haven't heard that before No mean So you might have decided But the reason for it I because I said to I said to my guys Why why why would that be happening? Um, because you you know, you made a pact to one of you not come down here You know, why why why would this change? And this is because of the need for the love vibrational energy of twins Um, or of that soulmate kind of energy, whatever you want to call it Um, they're needing that to shine out As brightly as possible to help with this transition And so, you know for them to come in as a walk in And still have that energy of that spark that happens when twins get together Um, then yeah, it can still can still happen so Yeah Made sense to me I'm seeing the same Django Django Reinhardt. Is that how you pronounce it? A couple of people are talking now you play it played with two fingers two fingers Have you got any footage of that? Yeah, I'm gonna I gotta I gotta look him up Bella says I completely believe in walk ins. Yeah, you probably would wouldn't you? Her and Brittany both have seen walk ins with you Yeah Yeah, he started listening didn't he belly started listening to different music completely different genre music and You know different food tastes, wasn't it? You didn't I don't know if that was with um, Bella and Brett, but um That might have been with the food and the jump music would might have been with michelle But I I've had I've had walk ins throughout my life, you know lots of and you know when something specific happens Uh, you know that that's out of your normal character Yeah The simple halftime gig the guys in the white blown up suits dancers. They reckon they were Subliminally showing those chinese white balloons. What do you think? I don't I don't know. I didn't watch the halftime show I don't know Did you know did you know what you? No, no, I I just don't care for Rihanna and that kind of music Yeah, just Yeah, I I don't know what the hell I did. Oh, I was I was cooking Went to kitchen kitchen making bites and you called me. I think you called me Didn't we talk halfway through Well, you know I came on came on during the first quarter When you were doing your astrology readings and it was tied up That's right, that's right Yeah Yeah walkins are real Yeah, they are When that soul has learned that lesson another soul can come in also they'll come in If you brought in as much light as you can bring in and you want to upgrade they'll come in one one with a higher Vibration even you know that that you're finally ready for will come in and Give you that upgrade To so, you know, they'll help you welcome in more light and more energy But sometimes like I said said they they're gonna You're gonna have characteristics that you might not be used to Yeah, yeah Yeah, you see that walk in Why was visualized and this walk in is coming to somebody else And then you then meet In this lifetime, right? Yes Yeah, yeah Rihanna and red All the dancers were there and white blow up blown up like painter suits Rihanna was saving and all the minions around her. Yeah, wouldn't surprise me, you know that It seems like every year for the Super Bowl, you know in the Grammy Awards and all of those shows there there's always a satanic kind of Theme to it. So wouldn't surprise me It's just another one of them trying to make that a trend, you know, so that people, you know get even more dark and You know Just it's it's horrible, isn't it? But it's changing this world is changing Rihanna and said gone vegetarian At the moment. She's she's not going to list it as definite. She's just She put off a meet. She was she's um since some programs on the meat industry and she can't bear it. It broke her It absolutely broke Yeah And I don't blame her but she was so distraught. She had to tell somebody So I had to then listen to it as well. So it's just tormented me now Is it her or the her and the rest of the family? No, no, she's just not it's actually up to them up to them what they do Yeah But she won't be cooking any meat for them. No, she's cooking it. Okay. It's won't eat it Okay Yeah, I don't think her crags very impressed. He likes his meat Yeah, but hunter. Do you know, I mean, it's like, you know He's uh, he's got his uh, his uh shotgun and he does do he does do that I remember he gave he there was some mystery meat on the plate When we went for dinner. It was like He said just taste that meat for me and I was like, oh, I don't know really I don't know so anywhere tasted it and it and I said taste a little bit like I can't even describe it and he said does it taste like squirrel? I was like, what?  Yeah Yeah Brian said I've not had Ascension symptoms, but I've been told my aura Being purple and yellow That 5d would have no trouble getting there. You stole that at at a psychic fair Purple and yellow purple that's interesting and a color for the aura. Yeah That's the crown chakra And the solid Yeah, exactly Yep Yeah That's some aplexis is Where you're trying to learn how you feel about other people Um, and how you accept criticism and how you Um, are coping with you know, unexpected news and unexpected Um outbursts and things like that with the yellow Hi shannon Hi shannon. Thank you for joining us Yeah, shannon is the Pisces So is ali Yeah, I am Oh my god astrology this week. Did you see it? Oh Pisces this week. It's not good this week loves. I'm so sorry I tried I tried I did the timeline thing Okay, because sometimes you're like reading it and you're going oh, I don't like that timeline. That's not nice Um, no matter how I was looking at it because I do try and keep it light. I'll still give the information Um, but it's keep it like Well, I looked at it and I thought okay, so now we know that there's going to be probably some Um, arguments and battles and things like that. It was like quite It was some of those and I thought okay, so I said right we'll keep a bit Let's let's just do another shuffle now. We know that Um, let's see if there's a more positive timeline that we can concentrate on So we shuffled it again. Oh me my god shuffled it again. I came out with it Same cards. So I said, I'm sorry. We're stuck with it. We're stuck with it Yeah So I do apologize when when I uh was putting the timestamps On the video, you know, I I I just go forward until you change that little Banner down there and I I know, you know, that's where to stop But I I gotta rewind it a little to hear, you know up to that point of where you change over And I could tell though at the I knew at the end of Pisces something was Something was different on on the Pisces reading I could tell by your voice I didn't like it. I didn't have to hear it, but I could tell just by at the end Yeah, it's interesting that you brought that up. Yeah Yeah Yeah Oh, look. Yeah, Bella said I even switched decks. I did Yeah, I did switch decks. It was the same Wow I tried But you know Saturn you just you just have to learn don't you just have to learn lessons and their karmic stuff And you can't bypass it Yeah Saturn aka Satan is going to be entering Pisces in March big shift for certain Yeah Hi serious love great name Yeah Hey, hey Lynn is on an Aries in Western astrology and Pisces in Vedic What's Vedic? Have I asked this before probably asked this before? Yeah, I'm not good at that It's Vedic is the one that has 13 signs where Ophiuchus is one Yeah, okay, I get it I don't know what I am in that one and I don't need to because I resonate so strongly with Libra Yeah, there's no doubt on my mind especially You know the one of the key traits of a Libra is we have the hardest time making our minds up on the simplest things Yeah Anyone that's a Libra understands We've got a plebby thing in the in the chat. Okay We'll get the plebby things So what did you guys get to do on Valentine's Day? Um, and I want to know the people out there single Let me know I want you to write in there single or partner. I want you to let us know single or partner And we're going to um Perhaps it's a good time. Actually, we've got about 15 minutes We could do the uh visualization that would be good, wouldn't it? So, yeah Whoever's game for that now if you're in a partnership with this visualization, we're going to um putting that out there as well Um, you know to strengthen your relationship that you're actually in This is why Greg and I's uh details are actually on this as well. Okay, so Because obviously, you know, we've got a strong relationship, but we want to be physically together obviously that's that's what we want So, um, so yeah Um, and I want to know people out there Darling, I don't know what oh you got it Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to Always trying to Delete that person I did and I'm just making sure that there's no other I wouldn't click on that guys for that job because That could be that could be a spam and I wouldn't want you guys to get in It was just one post So, yeah, I got it. It's gone Yeah Yeah, so um, anybody wants to join in um, we can light our candles now. Should we do it now darling? It's got 15 minutes left. Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna give you the spotlight again I'm gonna light my candle and Give you the floor Okay All right So if you want to join in um, please do Yeah, I mean at the end of the day sometimes it's just about loving yourself Okay, you know, um, there's always an option It's like sometimes we think, you know, uh, it's like when I was single Everyone would say oh you'll meet somebody soon and I'd be and I'd look at them and go I'm really happy on my own. I don't need that. I'm good um, you know and I feel as if if you can get to that stage with being single You know, what you're doing is you're clearing the decks Ready for this new one to come in Um for the right one to come in because you've got rid of all of that But you can usually sometimes I think sometimes you need that time on your own so that you can understand yourself Um, maybe analyze previous relationships and find out, you know, what was going on What was going on in that, you know, because we always say what was their fault There was a bitch or there was a bastard or whatever and it's like but what what happened with you You know, could you have prevented it? Could you have changed it? You know, what else? Um, so Anyway, let's let's do this Okay, so if you haven't got a candle you can look into this candle. Okay So let's do a bit of a visualization. All right Okay So stare into your candle guys You'll do the same What we're going to do is we're going to We're going to bring in The goddess and the positive energy around us of love And anybody who would like to do this for themselves or you can just shine your light out there Um for the collective of the single people trying to meet Their partner Or strengthen their relationship within their partnership This could also be strengthen relationships with family Friendships Okay, this is a love vibrational energy So I want you to visualize yourself in a bubble right now And I want you to Also think about that happiest moment that you've that make sure heart sing Visualize that Take a deep breath Take a deep breath Fill your heart with that love And breathe out And I want you to visualize this as pink swirling energy Some of you may have a bit of green energy in there as well. Just visualize this swirling energy of pink love Green love And now what we're going to do Is you're going to connect With everybody Who wants to Meet that person strengthen that relationship to start to Beam that light out there now everybody Send a beam out there So that your perfect partner Can find you your perfect partner can draw closer And closer And closer to you And that perfect partner may be the partner that you're with now if in which case visualize that partnership strengthening becoming more understanding The communication skills getting better For those of you who want to strengthen friendships family Also feel that love vibrational energy And send that signal out And allow that person's energy to come towards you With love vibration You're protected by this bubble. You're protected by this love It is protection that you can have So it is So There you go So we'll see What happens so let us know Next week maybe and see See what's what's been happening in your life.

Despite numerous studies supporting an African origin and high transmission of West Nile virus WNV in Europe, it is unclear whether WNV circulates between Africa and Europe. Our study shows a Northern-Western African origin of WNV lineage 1L1 with back and forth exchanges between West Africa and Southern-Western Europe and a Southern African origin of L2 with one main introduction from South Africa to Europe and no back introductions observed. We also noticed a potential overlap between L1 and L2 Eastern and Western phylogyography and two aphropeliastic bird migratory flyways. Future studies linking avian and mosquito species susceptibility, migratory connectivity patterns and phylogyographic inference are suggested to elucidate the dynamics of emerging viruses. This article was authored by Julia Minkatelli, Marie-Henry Tewonayong, Andrea Silverge and others. We are article.tv, links in the description below.


Wikibon.org, and we're here with Colin Mahoney of Vertica. Again, Colin, welcome back. Thank you. It's good to be here. So this is my second year here, a big change, pretty noticeable change from last year. What's changed in the marketplace, the whole? We talked a lot about big data. We met on an airplane, actually. Yeah. You shared with me some of your insights. What's changed in the last six, nine, 12 months, other than the fact that you guys got caught? Yeah. Well, so I think one of the things that I've seen change in this market is that people have recognized that, quote unquote, big data is everywhere. You don't have to be a Fortune 50-sized company to be dealing with it. Everybody wants to leverage information. And I think we all know what it can do from a competitive differentiation. If you can leverage data in near real time and make decisions on it that can affect your business, it has huge implications. And so I think data has always been there. And what's different now is that people really understand the value of that data. And I think, secondly, the cost of storing, managing, and analyzing that data is just dropping dramatically. So on the one hand, you have a cost curve that's going down, and you have a value curve that's going up. And I think in between there is where everybody sees the value. And so there's a lot of activity going on. Mike Olson was just making the point that he sees this whole Hadoop movement as incremental value creation. He doesn't see it as a cannibalization of anything transaction-oriented. Do you see it the same way? I do. I really do. I think that the transactional systems remain. There are still many transactional systems, many what I call structured data systems that are outputting structured information and inputting that as well. There's so much other information that's coming in that, frankly, I think was difficult to capture. And that's where Hadoop plays a huge role. It's really easy just to place the information on the HDFS or on the Hadoop clusters. And then you have all the flexibility of the different types of analytics that you can do with it. And so what Vertica sees is really where those two things come together. We have connectors to Hadoop, bidirectional. And I think if you really want to harness the value of information, you need all of the information. You need a 360-degree view of that information. That's unstructured, semi-structured, structured data. Yeah, so somebody tweeted out today. I don't believe Hadoop gives me a 360-degree view of the information. And it's not like an enterprise data warehouse potentially. So talk about that a little bit and what role you guys play there. Well, I think one of the most important factors for getting information out is the ecosystem of tools that can connect to any data source, whether it's an enterprise data warehouse or it's Hadoop or something else. There is a rich set of ecosystem BI tools, frankly, that everybody's using to ultimately output the visualizations. There's also companies here like Datamir who have some next generation solutions that run on Hadoop. But I think that that's a huge part of it, being able to have the applications that are written to analyze and report the data, communicate directly with Hadoop. And to a certain extent, that sometimes lack of structure on some of this data can create challenges. Because a lot of those tools were made for SQL as an interface. And it's not there. But that's coming. And I always think there's going to be a lot of other sources of data. And what we as vendors have to do is make those connection points between all these different pieces of infrastructure seamless so that you can use the best tool for the job, but you don't have to go through the pain of integrating everything. And I think that's the direction that we and many others in this space are trying to move towards. We had Daniel on from Yale, Daniel Abadi from Yale. And he told us, basically, he got sick of watching Stonebreaker start company. So he decided to start one. I'm paraphrasing, of course. But so a lot of interesting innovation there. But one of the things I want you to talk about is what's different about Vertica. What impressed me when we met on the plane is you shared with me your guy's dogma in a way. I mean, you have a really solid philosophy around what the right direction is. And I mentioned Stonebreaker. He obviously was pretty influential in that direction. But talk a little bit about your perspectives around your fundamental architecture. Yeah, so when the company was founded in 2005, we saw the data tsunami that was happening. And on the one hand, you look at a data cager of 40%, but you look at IT budgets that are growing between 2% and 5%. And that was true back then. It's probably even more true now. So something has to give. You can't have that much information with budgets the way they are. Meanwhile, most of the traditional database technologies that were out there, they were created for OLTP environments, transactional environments. They weren't created for analytics. So the premise of Vertica was to design something from scratch, a purpose-built analytic platform that can handle both the volume of data, the real-time nature of analytics, and the scale of big data. And we wanted to make it sort of big data for the masses, something that's very simple for not just programmers and PhDs to be able to work with, but really for anybody that's been trained with SQL, leverage this platform, but also fix a lot of the inherent issues with traditional relational technology around scalability, around flexibility. So we put together a platform that I think is very unique when compared to a lot of the other database platforms out there. And so it was primarily SQL-based for the first four versions. And then in 5.0, we introduced a software development kit and we support procedural programming that leverages the parallelism of our platform. But again, all of that is handled automatically. The compression is automatic. So you don't have to deal with a lot of the hand coding that you might on some other type of platform. What are we expecting for you guys this year at HP? Because obviously HP had bought autonomy. And you guys were in that special group with Leo and Shane Robertson. He's left the company. There's everything shaking out now. Are you going to be in a division, your own division? Can you share? You probably can't, but I hope to, you know. Yeah, so I can't share too much, but what I will tell you is you will start seeing a lot of information very soon come out on what we have. And frankly, I think what HP now has is one of the most robust data management platforms in the world, frankly. I think one thing that's very unique about HP's strategy, if you look at what they've brought together, they didn't say, let's go and reinvent the old stack. Let's go and get this type of vendor, that type of vendor. What they did do is they said, where is the growth coming from? What are people doing today and what are they going to be doing tomorrow? And I think you can imagine some of the use cases where there is a lot of unstructured data and you need to go through that data and understand the meaning of that data. It's not easy to do, but then when you understand the meaning of the data and now you can categorize, classify that data, let's put it into an environment where now it does have structure that can actually report and analyze that structure. So it really takes both of those things. In many ways, it's similar to some of the things that we're talking about here at Hadoop World. So what I like, and of course I'm biased, but what I like about the approach is let's not reinvent yesterday because the world doesn't look anything like it did even three years ago today. Let's look at today and where we think it's going to go. And I think that's- Yeah, we heard from Mike Olson just, you were listening about how disruptive and how it's really not taking away from anything this new marketplace is plowing new ground, new fields of being plowed. So it's not really cannibalizing like MySQL or JVOS did. The Hadoop movement is about going side by side. So it's interesting. So that you guys play in all that legacy area at HP. So we were interested. So when you're ready to tell us, please share with us. No, we absolutely will. And would love to get in the cube and talk about it. I think you hit it on the head. When you think about this company from a services perspective, converged infrastructure hardware perspective, many applications that HP has, Vertica, Autonomy. There is a lot of certainly technology, wonderful people, and solutions that can get pulled together. And frankly, the biggest disconnect I see in this industry right now is I go out there and I meet with a lot of other vendors and I meet with a lot of customers. And on the one hand, I meet these lines of business and they have these grand aspirations for what big data can do for them. And then you will also meet with a lot of the people on the ground who are working with data. What's missing is this huge middle ground where people are taking the business use case and the technology and they're really figuring out how to maximize what the two can do for one another. And I think that's where these solutions and some of the glue that's coming in is going to be so important. There are not a lot of business use cases that you hear around big, everybody says big data, monetize data. And then you say, okay, let's double click on that. What exactly are you doing? A lot of people can't answer that. I think we have over 500 customers that are answering that question every day. We're creating more material around it. And I think the entire industry- Well, our speculation, because we've been speculating is the whole autonomy thing and going on for months. And our speculation is quite frankly, we're bullish on HP. We think HP's got all the elements in place that you just kind of get your story together. It's like, okay, it's like redesigning the suit that hangs together, which pants to put with the jacket and shirt. So we think you guys have it there. So, cloud, same thing, all the open stack is, we're questioning that. But in general, HP's poised. So we're curious to see who's the leader of what the story is and the products, of course. Our line on HP, I just shared, John, you coined it again, HP all-stake no sizzle. So it's like, okay, you've got the ingredients, now you're going to start to bring it together. And it's going to take some time. Meg just came on, right? She needs a little time to digest everything. She made one good decision to keep the PC division. We were happy about that. Yeah, we were. Yeah, I mean, like I said, there's not a lot I can comment on. One thing I can tell you is that the stake sizzle comment, Vertica has a long history of announcing things six months after they've been out in production. And on the one hand, you could say from a marketing perspective, that's terrible of Vertica. You guys have so much, you have the customers tell the stories. But I'd much rather have that than the other way around. Because I think water is quickly finding its own level in this industry. And we want people to know that we have real solutions. We're solving real problems and we're creating real values. The noise is going to fall away when dollars are stuck in the table, which say this is the proof that it is here at the Hadoop world is that it's not just about Cloudera now, it's an ecosystem of vendors who multivend, it's the classic multivendern situation, which you guys know a little bit about. Well, that philosophy has served HP really well. I mean, obviously you guys score very, very high in all the customer delight surveys that we look at and so forth. So, you got a very loyal customer base sticking with you. So, we buy that. What's your take? I want to talk about the competition that's come in. That's one of the other big things that's changed in the last 12 months is you've seen EMC partner up with MapR, you see Hortonworks now, we're going to have them on the queue a little bit later. Yep, yep. What do you take on that?  I think we've talked in the past about you guys just taking the core of the Apache Hadoop code. So, what do you see as the competitive landscape? What does it mean to you guys? What's your angle on that? So, from the Vertica perspective, we partner with a lot of companies in the BI space and the ETL space and we have a very robust partner ecosystem. It's the same thing now that we're seeing play out in the Hadoop world. We think that so long as this industry doesn't get fragmented, which I think would be a disaster as it's just ramping up, that's a very good thing. Having different competitors work on product in a certain market. So, our philosophy is let's work with as many of the companies in the space as we can. We do work on our connector ourselves, but we work with vendors like Hortonworks, we're Apache, obviously, Cloudera. And we will continue to do that. We also have a lot of our own initiatives around expanding what we do on top of Hadoop. We came out with the Vertica Community Edition. We announced that about a month ago. That's something that's very different for us, but it ties very well into this space where we give away a one terabyte license on three nodes of Vertica to anybody that wants it. So anybody that wants to sign up can go to vertica.com slash community and there's the quote unquote free version of Vertica. And we really believe that our biggest challenge to scale is just letting more people know about what we do. And I think that's true of many vendors that you're seeing here today is we gotta get the word out that there are solutions to help people as they analyze and monetize this data. So all of these vendors, from our perspective, form a very important ecosystem. We have no plans to do our own, say, distribution of Hadoop, which sounds like what you might have been referring to. We were joking that SiliconANGLE announced the Hadoop distribution a couple months ago. Back in the day when everybody was doing it. We're actually gonna announce an H-based implementation of something, actually, real product. That was just a joke before. Yeah, so you're not gonna package your own distribution. The important works clearly is not a fork, right? You would agree with that, I presume. Yeah, as far as I know. Pure Apache. Yeah, Pure Apache. EMC Green Plum, different story. Different story. And you can say the same about LexusNexus, right? Yeah. Those are strategies that would be a fork if they took off as a de facto standard. Yeah, and I think, frankly, you look at companies like EMC where you were saying this is mostly incremental. I think companies like that actually have the most to lose. If storage is your business, the one thing that Hadoop is doing, HDFS specifically, is it is taking storage share. And if I'm EMC, I think, you know, I can look really hard about that and worry about it. Whereas for analytics and databases and those sorts of things, yes, they cut into part of that market, not nearly as pronounced as some of the storage. Well, and hence the Green Plum acquisition and probably the strategy to go proprietary. I mean, there's a logic behind it. So I just got a Facebook text that Bill Schmarzl's watching. So he's like, I'm William. We mentioned Green Plum. He's like, I'm watching. Hi, Bill. We cover all the bases. Yeah, I wish you were here for HB who says you want to watch out for your storage. That's vertical. It's not the storage division. That's good. Okay, so you've got this new competitive landscape emerging. I guess that's the consensus amongst the cloud area executive that we talked to is that's a good thing. Yeah. You know, if we didn't have that competition, we'd sort of be wondering what's wrong? How come nobody's jumping into this space? Yeah, I mean, that's what I would love. I wish that we had no competition over the last five years with Vertica, but frankly, I think that the entire market and what I tell customers all the time is they are so much better off. You look at the price per terabyte of database systems today versus where it was when Teradata was the only game in town and their prices are coming down, down, down. Why? Because all of us are driving their prices down and as a customer, that's exactly what you want. As a vendor, maybe not, but it's a lot easier for us because we didn't have this huge, incumbent install base. So we're happy to do it. The competition has made us better. I think we've made it better and that's playing out in the whole industry. It's good for the industry. The competition enforces alternatives. No lock-in, although everyone wants to lock-in, but I mean, people want choices. Customers don't want one vendor dominating. That's right. So, okay. Colin, thanks so much for coming inside the studio. Thank you for your support. Congratulations. Can we hear the story? Thank you.


Does YouTube allow conspiracy videos on the platform? We've done the research to give you the answer so that you can keep your channel safe and monetized. Hello and welcome to Freedom Quick Tips where we dig every lead, track down every source to bring you the truth on whether conspiracy theory videos on YouTube are being held down by the man. Man. First, what is conspiracy theory? Dictionary.com defines it as a theory that rejects a standard explanation for an event and instead credits a covered group or organization with carrying out a secret plot. While lexico.com says it's a belief that some covered but influential organization is responsible for an unexplained event. Some famous examples of conspiracy theories are the hollow earth theory which, as the name implies, claims that the earth is hollow and that an advanced civilization resides within. The theory that Apollo 11 moon landing was faked and done on a sound stage directed by Stanley Kubrick and that an extraterrestrial spacecraft crashed in the United States in Roswell, New Mexico and was subsequently covered up by the US government. There is no shortage of conspiracy theories on the internet, just the cursory search will reveal articles upon articles, video upon videos of your favorite flavor of conspiracy, a seemingly unending torrent of information, a lot of which resides on YouTube but if this is the case that there are numerous such videos on the platform, how is it that there are still channels getting demonetized or terminated? In early August of 2018, Alex Jones, a popular American radio show host and conspiracy theorist, had his channel of 2 million subscribers terminated by YouTube. For violating community guidelines after getting banned by Facebook and Apple, in a similar fashion, former football player and British conspiracy theorist David Ick had his 900,000 subscriber YouTube channel terminated after also being booted out of Facebook days earlier. When asked, YouTube provided this statement. YouTube has clear policies prohibiting any content that disputes the existence and transmission of COVID-19. As described by the WHO and the NHS, due to continued violation of these policies, we have terminated David Ick's YouTube channel. So what did both Alex Jones and David Ick do wrong? YouTube doesn't actually have any policy-specific conspiracy theory videos and while the phrase conspiracy theory conjures up images of wild-eyed tinfoil hat-wearing recluses, it's important to point out that not all conspiracy theories have been proven wrong. Some, such as the MKUltra, where the CIA was accused of conducting mind control experiments on unsuspecting American citizens, have actually been proven to be real. So if you're going to be making conspiracy theory videos on YouTube, what then should you keep in mind? First, be sure that you're mindful of YouTube's community guidelines, specifically the hate speech policy. You can check out our video about the subject in the descriptions below, but in a nutshell, YouTube does not allow content that promotes violence or hate against individuals or groups based on these following attributes. Number one is age. Number two is caste, disability, ethnicity, gender identity, and expression.   Persons with noted attributes are dogs, or persons with noted attributes are like animals. Persons with noted attributes is scum of the earth. Group with any of the noted attributes has an agenda to run the world and get rid of us. All the so called victims of this violent event are actors. No one was hurt and this is just a false flag. Another thing to keep in mind is the advertiser friendly content guidelines. We won't get too much into it now, but take note of the harmful or dangerous acts section. The hateful content section which echoes the hate speech policy, incendiary and demeaning, and controversial issues and sensitive events. In essence, don't post content that promotes or advocates for harmful health or medical claims or practices like implying that serious medical conditions do not exist or are an elaborate hoax or anti-vaccination or AIDS denialist movements. Insights hatred against, promote discrimination, disparages or humiliates an individual or group of people based on the attributes we discussed in the hate speech policy. Focus on shaming or insulting an individual or group or single out someone for abuse or harassment, malicious personal attacks, slander or defamation. Covers a relatively recent, unforeseen event in which there has been a loss of life, typically but not solely as a result of a pre-planned malicious attack. These events can cause a mournful response from the public or an extreme or visceral reaction. Lastly, take note as well that YouTube's term of service states that YouTube can either remove your videos or terminate your channel if they believe that your content may cause harm to YouTube, our users or third parties. Again, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, please keep those things in mind when uploading your conspiracy theory content. Otherwise, you'll run the risk of having your videos get a yellow icon at the least, to having your channel demonetize or terminate it at the most. Oh, and one more thing, YouTube has taken pains to recommend conspiracy videos less as they announced back at the start of 2019, and it has seemed to have paid off for the number of conspiracy theory videos getting recommended being cut nearly in half as a recent study showed. So even if you do stay within the lines, you might not get as much traction on your videos as you otherwise would be were you covering a different subject. Guess this is one instance where the man really keeping you down, eh? Okay, recap time. Conspiracy videos are okay as long as you make sure that your videos do not incite hate or violence. Provide advice that could harm people and be recognized of the fact that I might not get recommended by YouTube as much. As always, let us know if you have any questions in the comment section below, and don't forget to like, subscribe, and ring that notification bell icon. This has been Freedom Quick Tips. See you all in the next video. Goodbye!


Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure to present brief remarks at this critical SDG digital event. It is a magnificent opportunity to showcase practical digital solutions to the most urgent challenges of our time. Indeed, digital transformation has the power to drive sustainable development, creating myriad opportunities, among other things, for education, economic empowerment, gender equality, and social inclusion. Yet today, 2.6 billion people, 33% of global population, are still offline. Many of them, in small island developing states, least developed countries, and landlocked developing countries. By placing digital innovation at the very heart of our 2030 Sustainable Development agenda, we can spark holistic development towards a world that is just, more sustainable, and more prosperous for all, leaving no one behind. The SDG Digital Initiative marks a significant pivot towards inclusive and responsible digital transformation. But harnessing the full potential of such a transformation can only bear fruit if the benefits accrue to all equally. I take this opportunity to urge all governments and partners, including the tech industry, to heed the repeated calls for transfer and sharing of technologies. Technology is a much needed means of implementation to leapfrog many developing countries towards the realization of their sustainable development. I therefore welcome the launch of the SDG Digital Acceleration Agenda as a key roadmap for how we can responsibly harness the potential of data and digital technologies. This initiative emphasizes the need for accelerated collective action and solutions to bring the SDG's back on track. In this regard, I wholeheartedly congratulate the winners of the SDG Digital Game Changers Competition. Your inspiring and creative solutions will help empower communities, protect the planet, build prosperity, and build inclusive, sustainable peace for all. In essence, reflecting the four priorities I have chosen for the 78th session. Now is the time for action, not tomorrow, not next year, not when we restore global levels of growth to P pandemic levels. But now, let us nurture these diverse collaborations and partnerships. Let us expand the available funding for digital solutions. Let us solidify our collective resolve to create meaningful digital connectivity that leaves no one behind. I thank you.


Mitä on tärkeä kapitollista ja tärkeä kapitollisuudesta? Oikein, että olet tarvitsevasti käsittämisestä. Mutta mitä erilaisuudesta tai käsittämisestä on ollut työntekijöitä ja viciä? Olemme toivottavasti, että viciä ei olisi tullut tämän epäiseksi. Joo, minä voin tullut sanoa täällä. 2015, kun löysimme kompaniin, me just left our consulting summer jobs and my for instance for myself my job at the bank and then like go to like voluntary duties that I had besides school and for a year it was like his job at the marketing agency just for an idea and we didn't raise any capital in the beginning so actually for the first half a year we went with our own savings we just wanted to learn and try out paljon asioita. Meillä oli ollut todella kertaa. Nyt tuli vähän myös yksinkertaisuudesta, ja meillä oli joitettu minkälaista eri business-konceptit. Ja sitten me katsottiin Billa Vesterinen, joka oli sitten vuosien investoittajan reaktor-venturissa. Ja sitten me olemme vain valmiina niitä, joissa ei ole Se on hieman tullut, mitä haluamme vielä, mutta hän on hieman ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ympäristöryhmä, ja mitä me olemme tehdä, niin se on tullut, että se on tullut, niin se on tullut tullut. Mitä me tehdään, jos me sinutimme 55k? Ja miten paljon on erittäin järjestelmä, voitte testata ja esittää? Tämä olemme tullut sen 2015. Mutta sitten kun tuli 55k, olemme tullut järjestelmällä vuosina. Se ei ole oikein, se ei ole meidän ympäristöryhmä, se on tullut koko ajan. joten me sitten valimme niin langen, että kuten student-loonin ja selviimme, ja me haluamme hyvää katsoa VZ-moneen, jota voimme esittää asiaa asiaa ja kun meillä löysi sitä, ja kun meillä oli Poodstrapi, Poodstrapi, Swapii, miten paljon oli 200k netreveniä per per month. That was when we raised our first, like actual proper round in 2018 January, so yeah, it has been a lot of downs in the first two years as well, I would say, living on a shoestring budget and on noodles. Hopefully not anymore, yeah. What is the, how is the, as an entrepreneur, how is there your sort of, how is the company culture changed, but how is running the company changed after this sort of practically the day to day. And I'm not trying to press too much like get into the negatives of the thing, but like, are there any compromises even that you've had to make or has it been mostly positive? I would say mostly positive. Like, of course the role, I would say the biggest change as he also asked, like phrased in the question in a way has been the change of the role. So in the really early days when you had under 50 people, the role was very, very operational. And just like, when we grew from four people to 50 people that happened in the first half a year after raising the first funding round. And, you know, like when you look at those numbers, like in the first year after raising like seed round, growing from four people to 60 people and then over the next year growing to 200, you need to adapt really quickly. And I would say one of the most important traits or one of the most one of the toughest challenges also in a way has been that you need to. You need to, you need to, you cannot have too much ego in the game and you need to constantly hire people who are smarter than you. But that also means like giving away some of the things you are actually good at because you just, you just find smarter people who are much better than you. So that has been, of course, I would say like probably for us as founders, but also for a lot of early employees also. It's not always easy, but that's something you have to do and then you just need to learn into your new roles because it changes all the time. And you're already present in quite many international markets as well.  When we, when we started, started the firm, we knew that like Finland is such a small market even in this space that we need to go abroad basically immediately. So that's, that's how we started. So to Sweden, we went just, we went to Sweden mainly because it was, it's one of the easiest markets in a way to enter from Finland. We have a lot of Swedish speakers here and so on. But then after that, we made this kind of like expansion research all over Europe. So we were looking at the kind of like GNI metrics and everything and everything else like data on the market, like which markets are the most appealing in this space and the hypothesis on that. But then actually we, we didn't enter the number one market on the list. We went to one of the toughest markets instead. Even, even after doing the research and we decided, decided to go to Italy because we knew that like if you want to be a number one player in the world in this business, in this space, you need to enter some tougher markets first and not necessarily the easiest or the most appealing one. So we knew that even if we would fail, we would learn so much faster in one of the toughest e-commerce markets than we would do anywhere else. So that was the number one reason in the early days. But after that, when we noticed that this kind of like the playbook that we built around it, it works anywhere when you just adapt kind of like the right things in the market, market big model and in the kind of like in the early stages of any market in the research stage.
