Hi, I'm Grzegorz and in this video we will talk about project estimation, analytical versus holistic. So far we have been talking about the analytical approach. We estimate the effort time and cost of a project from the bottom up sum of the project activities that make up the WBS. So the general idea is, okay, we do a deep dive in the WBS and then we will analyze each part of the WBS, then we get the estimation of the effort, then the duration, then the cost and from the duration we build the network activities and define the critical path and get the duration of the project. From the effort we analyze the cost of each activity, sum the cost of all activities plus the secondary cost and then we get the cost of the project. But we can do it differently. We can use it a holistic approach. What is an holistic approach is the estimation that can be done globally in the top-down approach using the same type of the methodologies as for the analytical approach by analogy, by static data, by delphi, or by algorithmic tools. So we in a holistic approach we estimate by analogy, by counting product features in using an algorithmic approach such as function point analysis. There are others, but in this course we will talk about function point analysis. Function point analysis is a method of measuring the size of software projects. It is based on the end user's vision of the functions required for the application regardless of the technology, tools, or programming language used. So to use the function point we classify these views in the following features, internal logical files, external interface files, external inputs, external outputs, and external interrogations. In this view for each view is given a different weight. For the internal logical files the weight factor is 10. For the external internal interface files the weight factor is 7. For the external inputs the weight factor is 4. For the external outputs is 5. And finally for the external interrogations is 4. What means that we identify the software requirements and we categorize into the one above categories, internal logical files, external interface files, external inputs, external outputs, and external interrogations. That will give us the idea of the dimension of the project. And from this and using the weight factors we calculate the UFPs and adjusted function points. Function points must become adjusted by the complexity. And to do so we will evaluate four general system characteristics which measure the requirements that affect the application as a whole. Each general characteristic of the system is rate on a scale ranging from 0 not present to 15. Strong influence. So the function point analysis and the functional vision we must rate data communication, distribute processing, performance, heavily used configuration, transaction rate, online data collection, and user efficiency, online update, complex processing, possibility of reuse, easy of installation, easy of preparation, and multiple installations. We must rate each one from 0 not present to 15 strongly present. And then we can calculate the technical complex effect which is done by this formula and .65 plus .01 times the degree of influence which is the degree of influence, the sum of the scores of the 15 order characteristics that we analyzed before. So just to recap we rate each of these items between 0 and 15. Then we sum all the points in the degree of influence and then we calculate the technical complex effect. Using the technical complex effect and the adjusted function points we can calculate the function points. Then using these function points we have tables that we can use to calculate the size of the project in person permits or in another time measure. Several studies have shown that the analysis of function points is quite consistent with reality. You can consult the tables to make the adjustment of the function points to the size of the project in the International Function Points User Group IFPUG and in this website. Just to note that despite the all these techniques to determine the size of the project, the cost of the project, we must take into account the following. If we don't have a huge experience on the technology and in the business area of the project, our estimation can be quite uncertain. This picture shows that you have four plus or four less uncertainty against your estimations and in the beginning in the discovery and analysis of the project you are too far from the dates and the size of the project and that of course with the time during the project you will approach for more defined and more precise calculation and estimation. However, if you have a lot of data and a lot of experience in the technology and the business area, of course, this uncertainty is reduced. But just keep in mind that it is better to estimate, even if you know that you have some error associated, then do not estimate at all.


Time of football is about to hit the road to Nashville to attend the NFL draft. Come along with me. Why don't you? What's up everyone? My name is Hasan Khan of Time of Football and I'm so glad that you're joining us for this video. We are traveling from our hometown of Atlanta, Georgia all the way to Nashville, Tennessee to attend the 2019 NFL Draft. Do I care that right after I'm going to be driving four hours back home at 3 a.m. because it's too expensive to stay at a hotel? No, I don't care. Do I care that it's going to be soaking wet because it's going to be outside on Broadway Street? No, I don't care. Do I care that I'm willing to be soaking wet just to hear a guy that everybody hates announce a few names on stage? No, I don't care.   All right, Hasan. Focus. Draft experience right outside Nissan Stadium. Guys, there's a lot of people here. A lot of people reppered their team, their own team gear, their own swag, but people are enjoying themselves. So let's go see if we can try to catch up with some people and get their thoughts on the draft. How was I going to draft by a receiver? Am I a Cooper with the first round people? I'm pretty sure we're going to get in for it. And we know that slick Rick probably isn't going to get to sleep on his bed. He's going to get bumped to the couch. So hopefully he doesn't come home with another corner tonight. And hopefully this is our year. Go Cowboys. He speaks for himself. Six rings, you know, we've been holding it down. We just got this, but we plan to get to seven first, you know what I'm saying? We might get about it. I think we're going to have it. I think they were just holding us back. Zim's defense is going to lock it down. I think the offense is going to get rolling this year and it's going to be a much better show in the last year. It was time to head over to main stage and watch the draft. When I say that the crowd you saw on TV was not an exaggeration, trust me, you had to be there. 200,000 people were in attendance, including some big names. It rained most of the night, as you can see right here. 15 headed round draft. The New York Jets select Quentin Williams. Umbrella's just got on the way of everything, so I decided just to embrace the rain. The Washington Redskins select Dwayne Haskins. I got closer and closer to the stage as the night went on, being all the way back here for the first pick, the Arizona Cardinals select, and all the way here for the last pick. Nikhil Harry, wide receiver, Arizona State. It was pretty freaking dope, not going to lie. I'm pretty soaked because it rained throughout the whole entire night, so I just wanted to embrace the fun. I wanted to get away. You know why not? It had a Woodstock feel, minus all the sacks. But yeah, it was a great night and I'm so glad that I went. This place is gorgeous, had an awesome time. Nashville, you were awesome. The edifice draft was amazing. We appreciate you guys watching this video in its entirety.

Item number SCP-044 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures A constant stream of hydrogen ions, unbound oxygen atoms, and other trace-free radicals emanate from the muzzle of SCP-044 at all times. Because of this, the docking stations of SCP-044 are to be well ventilated that keep dangerous gasses and moisture from accumulating. Muzzle coverings are to be fitted at all times to keep birds and small animals from investigating the large open barrel of SCP-044. Addendum ██, 2000 As SCP-044 has not been involved in any significant incident in the ██ years that have been held by the Foundation, SCP-044 has been reclassified as safe. Does that really define significant incidents? If containment procedures and standard safety protocols are followed, ██ appears to be no more dangerous than any other big ██ gun. No. The bare incident does not count. O5 ██ Description SCP-044 is a howitzer, secretly manufactured in the late stages of the Second World War by Krupp engineers. Supposedly supervised by Albert Speer, German Minister of Armaments and War Production under Adolf Hitler. SCP-044 is unique, not only because of its size, 251,000 kg, or 251 metric tons, but also because it fires unconventional artillery using an atypical delivery method. Rather than having a breach for loading shells, the rear of the barrel is configured into a massive air compression chamber. Any object, or pile of objects at bits, may be loaded into SCP-044's muzzle to be used as ammunition. Because of its size, SCP-044 must remain rail-mounted and requires two freight locomotives to move. Researchers believe that SCP-044 weakens molecular and atomic bonds in any material loaded into its muzzle. However, the method by which SCP-044 affects molecular bonds is not known, due primarily to the numerous complex mechanisms that compose the housing and workings of SCP-044. In fact, some mechanisms appear useless and seem to do nothing other than spin or make noise, even when SCP-044 is not supplied with power. Both equipment and personnel have been lost while exploring the inside of SCP-044's barrel. When SCP-044 is fired, all matter within its barrel is ejected at a high rate of speed of the glowing red slug, proportional in size to the amount of mass loaded into the muzzle. Upon striking a solid object or the ground, the slug explodes with the yield proportional to the mass of the original ammunition, at no less than a ██ per cent mass to energy conversion rate. The yield will also increase somewhat the longer the slug remains in the barrel. The greatest known yield was achieved when the Administrator's 8,900 kg or 19,500 lb. personal diesel pickup truck was loaded in its entirety into the muzzle of SCP-044 and fired in the pictured experiment.


Hello Earth citizens! My name is Chris, a brain education instructor from Rolling Hills, California. Today we're going to do part two of the Three Treasures Keegan Flow. So part two has to refers to our middle dungeon, our heart chakra, or our connection to nature, or humanity for all living creatures. So we're going to try to open our heart and connect to those through the flow today. So we're going to bring our feet open, about shoulder width. We're going to start with just a little gentle bouncing.  You want to wake the hands up.   Well done. So as you activate the energy in your hands, now we're ready to start the flow. So we're going to start with a little tai chi opening. So as we inhale, let your hands go down. Let your heart rise, your tailbone sink. As you exhale, tuck your tailbone sink your arm. Good. Inhaling up, exhaling down. Good. Feel that connection, the energy coming up and down through your body. So as we start to connect this energy in our hands, in our body, we're going to start to bring it in towards our heart, towards our middle dungeon to connect with nature, humanity, all life. And slowly stop. Bring your arms up like you're hugging the giant tree. Except this time, we're going to flip our hands around and face out. Relax the shoulders, elbows are down. Feel the energy from your palms radiating out to all beautiful people, living animals, plants, anything that touches your heart. Relax your shoulders, really charging that energy, that mind, that intention allows you to really utilize the energy well. So as we charge energy through our heart, now we're going to pour it into our heart. So you're going to bring your hands to face your heart, sending this energy into your heart. Relax your shoulders. You may feel a tingling, a vibration, you might feel a pouring in or an expanding with it. Feel that heart. Good job. Now we're going to come down to our base flow.  Now as we exhale, we're going to push down and out. As we inhale, we're coming up our spine. As we exhale, we're going to push out. Small inhale up, exhaling. Or as we inhale, we come back down to our energy ball. And then we exhale down and out. Inhaling up, pushing out. Inhale, back to your end. As you can see a little bit of my flow of my spine, my torso. As I exhale, I come down, I sit in. As I inhale, I come up. I exhale, I push, I sit. As I inhale, I come back to my energy ball. Inhale, exhale down. Inhale, pull it up. Exhale, pushing. Inhale, back to your energy ball. In times, base flow. Small circle, back to your energy ball. Down and out. Draw out the energy out. Pushing out. Now we're going to slow down. We're going to go through our nature flow, our heart flow. So we start with the same out. And when we get to our heart and we push out, this is where we change. Exhale, out. So here's where we start that flow. You're going to open your hands to the rise and everything on here. Open your heart. Good. And then as you exhale, here's our spiral coming down, grounding through the first trunk ground. Good. Now as we inhale, we're going to gather energy up. Now this time as we exhale, we're going to pour energy into our heart.  Pour the energy in. Inhale, fill it. Exhale, release. Inhale to your energy ball. Exhale, down and out. Inhaling up to your heart. Pushing out. Opening the horizon. Spiral down. Lifting energy off the horizon. Picture the sunlight pouring into your heart. Exhale in. Inhale, fill your heart. Exhale, release. Inhale, energy ball. Down and out. So the energy pouring it into your heart, you exhale. Inhale, refill your heart. Exhale, let go. Two more times, energy ball. Pour into your heart. Exhale. One more time. Pushing out. Pouring it into your heart. Touch your sternum. Inhale, fill your heart. Exhale. It's the gather. It's the gather right in the left. Good. Bottom hand goes first. Pulling the energy down. Connecting upper dungeon, middle dungeon, lower dungeon. All through the exhale. Fear yourself becoming much more centered. Much more grounded. Time to decide. Now let's breathe out the sky. Breathe out. Energy being integrated. Gather, refreshed.  Your middle dungeon. The center for nature. For life. For all of humanity. Feel it. Re-invigorate it. Heart is open. Feel the heart beating and buzzing. Radiating love. Clasping your hands. Come down to our dungeon. Bring your feet more narrow. And then swaying in the breeze. Feel the connection with the earth. Good knees, your feet. Feel the radiating energy from your heart. In the road. Hit your hands. Block wise or on your outfit. Gathering, storing all this energy into that lower abdomen. Lower dungeon. Hold your stomach and breath in. Check out any of our legs. Good. So thank you for joining for part two of our three treasures, Keaton Flow. Keep an eye out for part three to be coming soon. If you'd like to experience a full one hour for an education-based class, please contact the Body and Brain Center near you.


Okay, thank you very much. So I'm gonna talk about the joint work with Grigori Garkusha. And the main idea of this work is to construct an explicit fiber replacement of a certain spectra in the stable material model category. So in this talk, we're gonna work over the Batesfield key, which is infinite and perfect field of characteristic difference from two and we'll be interested in the stable motivic model category, right? We're gonna need two descriptions of this category. Either we can think about this as a category of P1 spectra or the category of GM S1 by spectra. And the main target is to construct explicit fiber replacements of certain spectra in this stable motivic model category. So the main example, the main motivating example is the algebraic cavodism spectrum, MGL. That's the spectrum that consists of the spaces which are the tom spaces of the tautological vector bundles of rank I. So tau I here is the vector bundle over the Grasmanian I, where Grasmanian I is the co-limit of Grasmanian of subspaces of dimension I in the space of dimension N when N goes to infinity. So then there is a tautological vector bundle over this Grasmanian and then the tom space of this tautological vector bundle is the space in the algebraic cavodism spectrum, MGL. And let me first formulate our main result for the spectrum MGL and then I'm gonna talk a bit about similar spectra that looks similar to MGL that also consists of the tom spaces of certain vector bundles. That's what we are calling the motivic tom spectrum. So let me start with the construction with the explicit construction of the fiber replacement of the spectra in the stable motivic model category. So for this construction I need several steps. The first step, I need to introduce the notion of omega correspondences. So if U and X are smoothed varieties over K, I'm gonna introduce omega correspondences from U to X as a group point of the certain objects. So the objects look like this, these are the heads. Use the X where the map P from Z to U is finite, flat and locally complete intersection morphism. And Z here is some scheme over K. It not need to be reduced, it's just a certain scheme over K that's with a locally complete intersection map to U, which is finite and flat, right? So these are the objects and isomorphisms in this group where it adjusts the usual isomorphisms of these heads. If we have two such heads, Z and Z prime, an isomorphism between them is just a map that can be used with both projections and both maps from the top of the heads to the variety X. So that's the group point. And then for every smooth variety U, we can associate the nerve of the group point core omega from U to X. And this is gonna be a pre-chief of simplicial sets. So that's the first subject I need to introduce. Then we can construct a fiber replacement from the subject just in two more steps. So the second step I need to do, I need to apply the single or simplex construction C star. So C star and core omega of U X, that's a simplicial object that looks like this. So it's zero simplices are just nerve and core omega U X. It's one simplex. One simplex is this N core omega of U cross delta one over K into X. Two simplices are N core omega of U cross delta two K, X and so on. So then that's again, it's gonna be a simply show pre-chief and delta one and delta two here. I just algebraic simplices. So delta one K is just a spectrum K X zero X one, where zero plus X one is equal to one. Delta two K is the algebraic two dimensional simplex and so on. So we apply this simplexial construction to this nerve of the group void of the omega correspondences. Excuse me, Sasha, there's a question for you. What does the omega stand for? Omega here is just a reference to the co-boardism. It's really, I mean, it's just for some historical reasons. There's no real reason to call it core omega. That's just how we call it. Okay. Okay, thank you. So the next step, we need to make it an S one spectrum. So we're gonna construct a final replacement in the category of GM S one by spectrum rises naturally as the GM S one by spectrum rather than P one spectrum. So here we constructed just the spaces, the simplexial pre-shifts. So now we need to make an S one GM by spectrum. So first of all, we construct the S one spectrum and it's constructed also in a standard way. So to every U, we just associate the spectrum C star and core omega U X smash S. And that's a spectrum that consists of the following things.  Right, instead of X, we can put a simplexial scheme as X plus smash S one, X smash S two and so on.  So then the sequence of simplexial pre-shifts naturally becomes an S one spectrum. And then the last step, we need to make it into S one GM by spectrum where, so it's a GM spectrum of S one spectrum. So it consists of the following things. So the first element is the aspect from C star and core omega U X smash S. The next is C star and core omega U X smash GM smash one smash S and so on. The next gonna be C star and core omega U X smash GM smash two, smash S and so on. Where GM smash one here is a simplexial scheme. Also that's just a cone, simplexial cone of the inclusion of the point into the pointed variety GM. Sasha, a question for you again. Yes. Would you mind describing the structure maps in step three? Oh, the structure maps in step three. Okay, so we have C star and core omega X, sorry, U X smash SI smash S one goes to C star and core omega from U to X plus smash SI plus one. So basically this map is constructed in as the following sequence. So first of all, we have a map into C star and core omega U X plus smash SI, smash S one. And then it goes over here where, yeah, the idea here is that the C star and core omega X it's covariant with respect to the second argument. So when I have any simplexial scheme and I put it on the second argument, I automatically get a simplexial reshift here. Okay, great, thanks. Okay, right. So here I did the first step. So here I got the S one GM by spectrum and this is everything we need to know. I can formulate the following theorem. Yes, or I didn't give a name to this. Let me call this by spectrum C and C star N core omega U X smash G smash S. So then our main theorem tells that this S one GM by spectrum C star N core omega X smash G smash S is locally equivalent to a motivic fiber. So it's not a fibrant replacement itself, but it's locally equivalent. In particular, it has the same homotopy groups as the fibrant. So it has the same local homotopy groups as the honest motivic fiber replacement of the spectrum X smash MGM. Or more precise, to make it a fibrant replacement, what I need to do, I just need to, I just need to make it a fibrant replacement what I need to do. I just need to put every step of my GM spectrum, of my S one GM by spectrum. I just need to apply the fiber replacement in the local model structure without any A one occurrences. All right, so if I do this on every step, then this S one GM by spectrum will be there, will be motivically fibrant and will be weakly cool into the spectrum X smash MGM. Right, so in particular, if we wanna compute say, sheaves of homotopy groups of the spectrum MGL, the sheaves of homotopy groups will be the same as, so A one homotopy groups of the spectrum X MGL computed on local Hensel and U will be just homotopy groups of this A one S one spectrum C star and or omega of U X smash S. Okay, so that's the main application and similarly we can do a similar result for other spectra that are similar to MGL so other examples where we can state similar results are MSL and MSP. So these are the spectra for special linear co-bordance that sublactic co-bordance. But let me talk a bit about how this result is related with the theory of frame correspondence. Basically, this result is just an application of the techniques that are available to us thanks to the theory of frame correspondence. So the frame correspondences were introduced by Wojewódzki, developed Garkus and Pani. So here let me look at a bit more general situation. Suppose E is a Tom spectrum and by Tom spectrum, I mean the spectrum that consists of Tom spaces. So E has spaces E0, E1 and so on, where EN is a Tom space of some vector bundle VN where VN is a vector bundle of rank N over XN, right? So the main examples of this Tom spectra are suspension spectrum, X plus dash T X plus dash T square and so on. The second example that we've already seen is just the X plus dash MGL or similarly, we can think about X plus dash MSL and X plus dash MSP. But we need to be a bit careful here because naturally there arises T square spectrum but again similar things can be done for these two spectrum. But let me mostly concentrate on these examples on the suspension spectrum of a smooth variety and on the just MGL spectrum. Then we can, if we have such a Tom spectrum, then we can introduce the E frame correspondences from U to X as just the home set in the category of pointed misnaved chiefs from U, MSP, MSN, into X plus smash E N. And by Lemo Wojcicki, this set of homes in the pointed category of misnaved chiefs has the following geometric description. So all these homes can be described using the following geometric data. So first of all, that's a close subset into affine space A N over U, which is finite over U. Second ingredient here is an etal neighborhood of Z in the affine space. And the next is the map from the etal neighborhood W into the vector bundle V N such that Z is the pre-image of the zero section Q. And also the second part of the data is just a map from etal neighborhood to the variety X. So this map phi here that defines Z inside V, we call them a framing. And that's the frame, the E frame correspondence that arise with respect to the Tom spectrum E. So yes, so this sets of data describe this morphisms up to a certain equivalence where the data Z, W, phi, F is equivalent to Z, W prime, phi prime, F prime. If W and W prime are two etal neighborhoods of the same close subset Z and all phi and phi prime, F and F prime coincide on their common refinement on W cross A and U, W prime. So in this data, we can just shrink our etal neighborhood W and the correspondence stays the same. So then that's the description of this home set. Excuse me, just a quick question, Sasha. So does this also holds without A1 invariance? That's, here we don't discuss any A1 invariance. So this are just, so here we just talk about the pointed Nisnevich sheaves. So there is no A1 invariance here so far. Okay, thanks, thanks. Okay. And then if E is just a suspension spectrum, it's just point T, T square and so on. Then this frame, the E frame correspondences from U to X are just usual frame correspondences from U to X. Okay, when we consider just a suspension spectrum here instead of vector bundle VN, we just have a trivial vector bundle over a point. So then we can use their theory of frame correspondences to use this E frame correspondences to construct a fiber replacement for the material spectrum E. So again, we can do this in two steps. First of all, we construct an S1 spectrum MEX that again, I need to apply the C star construction to this pre-sheaf frame E from U to X and then make it into an S1 spectrum, right? And I didn't say what is frame E here, frame E from U to X is just a co-limit when N goes to infinity of frame N, E from U to X where I can embed frame N, E from U to X into frame N plus one, E from U to X is just, I just need to embed A and U inside A and plus one U and then instead of W, I take W across A1 and so on. So there's a natural stabilization process that makes the level of this frame correspondence bigger. Right, so then I take the co-limit with respect to N, apply the simplicial construction C star and make it an S1 spectrum. So then what I get, I get this S1 spectrum MEX and then we can make it into G spectrum using the same construction as we saw before. It's a S1 GM spectrum consisting of MEX, MEX smash GM smash one and so on. So that's gonna be an S1 GM by spectrum and then the general theory of frame correspondences tell us that MEGX is locally equivalent to a motivic fiber replacement of X smash E. So MEGX is locally equivalent to the motivic fiber replacement of E smash X and this motivic fiber replacement looks like this. Again, I just need to apply local fiber replacement. So MEX smash GM, smash I, F here is a fiber replacement of MEX smash GM smash I in local stable Nisnevich stable, S1 stable Nisnevich model structure. So in particular, again, if we interested in the, yes, it's locally equivalent to this one, sorry, and this one, this S1 GM spectrum is motivically fibrant and is equivalent to X smash, sorry, smash E. So in particular, if we interested in the homotopy groups, then the homotopy groups can be computed explicitly as the homotopy groups of the corresponding S1 spectrum. So that's the general result, it works for every Tom spectrum. So it works for the suspension spectrum, it works for MGL and so on. And next for MGL and some others Tom spectrum, we can further make a reduction and make this construction a bit simpler. So let me show you the steps of the reduction we needed to do in order to obtain the result for MGL. So the first step, that is also a general one that works for every Tom spectrum is the following. Instead of considering the frame correspondence, we can consider an object, which we call normal frame correspondences. And that's the following thing denoted as frame and E tilde from U to X. So that's the set of the following geometric data. So first of all, again, we have a variety U, we have affine space A and U, and we have a closed subscheme of A and U.  We have a fully complete intersection subscheme and the map from Z to U is finite and flat. Then again, we consider a tall neighborhood of Z inside A and U. But now instead of the whole map from W to the vector bundle VN, we just construct a map. We just need to consider a map from W to the base XN of the vector bundle. So here VN is the vector bundle over XN from the definition of the Tom spectrum. Here we consider the map from the et al neighborhood Psi, the inclusion I. And then instead of framing here, we have the isomorphism between the normal bundle of Z inside A and U and the induced vector bundle by this map Psi I from Z to XN, right? And then the second piece of information is the map from Z into X. And then we have a similar equivalence relation where we can shrink a bit et al neighborhood W when we shrink et al neighborhood W. The normal bundle will not change and we just need for this isomorphism fight to stay the same when we shrink the et al neighborhood. So here what we did instead of having the, having a whole set of equations that define Z inside W, we just remember one piece of information. We just remember how these equations give us an isomorphism between the normal bundle of Z inside W, which is the same as normal bundle of Z inside A and U and the actual induced bundle on Z that's induced from XN, right? So that's a normal frame correspondence and as a side remark, it looks especially nice where XN is just a point. Right, so where VN is just a trivial vector bundle of rank N, XN is just a point. Then what we have here, this data is just equivalent to the following data. We have Z, which is finite flat over U. It's a locally complete intersection sub-scheme of A and U. And then we have a trivialization of a normal bundle of Z inside A and U. Right, let's say X is also a point here.  And that it's really very similar to what's known in topology as frame cavortism introduced by Pintragan. So that's the first reduction step we need that instead of the whole framing, we just keep track of the isomorphism on the normal bundle of the supports. We're gonna call Z here, the support of the framed correspondence. So it turns out that instead of the whole frame correspondence, we can just consider the isomorphism of the normal bundle of the support with the bundle induced from VN. Right, so. So then the theorem says that if I construct in the same way the normal frame motif E of X, which is just C star frame E tilde of X C star frame E tilde of X meshes one and so on, then M E tilde. So there's a natural map from M E of X to M E tilde, right on the level of frame correspondence. And when we have a frame correspondence like this, then it defines Z as if I consider not just a closed subset defined by the equations phi by the whole closed sub-schemes Z defined by phi, then it defines Z as the whole closed sub-schemes in Z defined by phi, then it's gonna be a locally complete intersection, it's gonna be finite flat, automatically gonna be flat over U. And then this phi gonna induce the isomorphism between normal bundle of Z inside A and U with the bundle induced from VN. So we have naturally a map from a usual frame, E frame correspondence to the normal E frame correspondence just by forgetting some structure. Then it induces a map on the level of S one spectra and it turns out that this map is locally in a coolance. So it turns out that for any E frame spectrum we can simplify our construction like this. So that's the first step, it works for every term spectrum. And now let me show you other steps that work specifically for the spectrum MGL. So for E, it goes MGL, we can simplify the construction further. So when E is MGL, then VN we have here is just a total logical vector bundle of rank N, right? So this normal frame correspondence we're gonna give us the isomorphism of the normal bundle of Z with a pullback of the total logical vector bundle. And then it turns out that we can get rid of this information as well.  So that the projection onto U is finite and flat and then just a map from the support Z into X, right? So here then we have a natural map from normal frame correspondence from U to X into this embeddings and UX that just takes all this data Z, W, Z, Psi, Phi and F and just forgets everything keeps only Z and F, right? So then we can show that this thing after we apply the C star construction is an equivalence. So C star frame and E from U to X into C star embedding N from U to X is an equivalence of simplicial sets for any smooth affine scheme U, right? So for the case of MGL, we can forget about the framing and the only thing we need to keep track of is the support actually. And then the last step for MGL, we can also forget about the embeddings of Z inside the affine space, right? So there is a natural map from embedding and UX into the set of core omega, UX where we take this embedding data and just forget the embeddings. So we have, we just keep Z, U and X. So we need this map peak here to be finite flat LCI map from Z to U. So that's what I started with the set of omega correspondences, right? And then it turns out that when I apply the simplicial construction again, so here I map to the set of, to the zero, zero simplices of the nerve. So when I consider a map from embeddings and into nerve of core omega of UX then it turns out that this is also, is a weak equivalent of simplicial sets, a smooth and affine. And then this is how we arrive at the result I started with. So we start with, we start with the general construction of a final replacement for every term spectrum MEG of X. Then we reduce it to the spectrum that we get using the normal framed correspondences. And then for MGL, we first of all reduce this normal frame correspondence to the spectrum that can be constructed using this embeddings and then to the spectrum that we construct using this omega correspondences. All right, and another remark here is that embeddings and UX is representable by a smooth scheme. So that's gonna be the smooth part. It's gonna be a LCI part of the Hilbert scheme of A and U and then C star, then the spectrum C star embedding X, G, S that we can construct from this data will be a local model for motivic fiber replacement of X mesh MGL which is representable just by co-limits, directed co-limits of smooth, simplicial schemes. So I guess it's a good point to stop here. That's what I wanted to tell you about. Okay, thanks. Thanks a lot, Sascha. Thank you. Wonderful. I'm gonna press a whistle. Let's see, I'll do some questions. A little question, can I ask? To what extent does this tell you about the various P1 suspensions, the maps on the P1 suspensions of things like MGL or MSL, like negative or positive suspensions? So naturally these things they live in the GM S1 spectrum. So it's not clear, but does it tell you about the P1 suspensions? Mark, if you positively suspense Tom Spector, everything works. Yeah, but on the negative ones, it's unclear. Negative ones are unclear exactly. Oh, okay, good. Okay, great. Thanks. Any other questions? Just maybe this is a question from many times. So in this remark, you described the say take X to be correct. So take local model for the Mach-Evic factor replacement of MGA. And it is representable as you described by smooth, superficial, coordinates of smooth, superficial things. Can we just work in with this model proof consolation theorem for this by Spector? The GM consolation? Yeah, means not taken back to original kind of omega MGA correspondences. I'm not sure if you can. So your question is, can you get the GM consolation directly from this description? Yes, yeah. I don't know, it's hard to say. It's not clear to me. Okay, so that was the question. And I got an answer. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, I can wait a little bit longer for possible other questions. And maybe I will ask one more question. Could you take that a little bit up? Say, okay, say for the step three. In the step three, you require U is to be smooth and defined. Could you comment why it is enough? Means that typically one should expect that U should be taken to be local Hymns alien. And in your case it is smooth and defined. The point is why it works for smooth and defined because actually we are able to construct an explicit homotopy between. So if you have the same Z over U but you have different embeddings of Z inside an affine space, then you can construct a homotopy that drags one embedding into the other embedding. And for this thing to work, it's just enough U is enough to consider a smooth and fine U. Uh-huh, okay, very good. And is it kind of the same principle which works for the previous step? Means for the step number two? Yeah, for the step number two, you mean the step for normal frame correspondences. This you have shown to me the step number one, but go a little bit down there. Yes, step number two. Yeah, here it is here. The step number two goes from the normal frame correspondences to the embeddings. Yes, again, the reason why it works over the smooth affine U is that we're able to construct an explicit homotopy that works over smooths and affine U. So the point here is that when we talk about this normal frame correspondence for MGL, then what we have here, we have just a total logical vector bundle, VN. And so the framing here is an isomorphism of a normal bundle with a pullback of the total logical vector bundle. And every vector bundle is isomorphic to the pullback of the total logical vector bundle over the affine variety. So actually turns out that we can just, if we have two isomorphisms to the pullback of the total logical vector bundle, then again, what we can do, we can produce a homotopy that sort of transforms one into another in a consistent way so that it makes this as cool as possible. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Sasham. Okay, we have some more questions for you, Sasham. I can read them. So Tonya Nala asks, what part of the geometric part of ultrubatic cobaltism can be represented by these methods? What part of? Of the geometric part of ultrubatic cobaltism can be represented with these methods. So geometric part, do you mean two N and diagonal? I guess. Okay, so actually locally, we can compute everything using these methods because if you have a AB homotopy group of A1, say MGL smash X on U, U is local zillion, then using these methods, this is gonna be equal to just by A of C star and core omega of, sorry, I guess I need to write A minus B here, right? Because we have a simplicial sphere of dimension A minus B and here we have GM smash B, smash U into X. Yeah, the point here is that, so GM smash B, smash U is not local Henselin anymore, but because everything here, all the sheaves we have here, they are framed sheaves. And for the framed pre-sheaf, which is A1 invariant and with some additional properties at hold here, we know that it coincides with this sheafification on the open subsets of affine space. So actually this computation here of the A1 homotopy groups, it works not only for local Henselin schemes, but also works for all the open subsets of affine space. So every A1 homotopy group can be explicitly, can be computed as the usual, simplicial homotopy groups of this. So sorry, I need to write down S1 spectrum. So when U is not local, we don't have this result, but when U is local Henselin, we can get this description. Okay. So maybe we'll specify a little bit. The previous question, not of mine, but you try to answer it. Say, substitute U to be speck of a field going on in this field. When U is what? U is speck of a field. Okay. And say X is a point. So you answer on the question of the person before mine, as I understood you answer it like this, that you take this pi a-b of this simplicial set. And so this is the answer, yeah? Yeah, this simplicial spectrum, but it's omega S1 spectrum starting from the first. So we can actually rewrite it like this. You can say it's a-b plus one of this simplicial set C star N or omega of GM smash B K plus smash S1. So then that's an explicit simplicial set that computes the promote A1 homogeneity of MGL. Yeah, good. Then there's two more questions, at least two more questions, Sasha. So one of the questions says, is this the non-borel-more-bordism of X? Is non-borel-more-bordism of X? I'm not sure what's exactly the question. So maybe that's because the map to X is not proper. I think that's the question. Oh, what's the difference with the algebraic-cobordism of this construction? Yeah, the point is that Z here, first of all, Z is not a variety. Z can be a scheme. And also, yes, the map from Z to X is not proper. It's just any map. So Z here is a scheme. And the only thing we need from Z is that it's the map from Z to U is a locally complete intersection map and it's finite and flat. Okay, so that's good. Then another question from Ola Sande. Could you explain why you need to take the nerve of core omega? Oh, that's because when we forget about the embeddings here, the point is that we need to keep track of the isomorphism between the tops of the heads because it's not gonna work if I just take, say, an isomorphism class of the heads of core omega. Just, we'll not get a wicked clue here. So, because when we forget about the embeddings here, we still have to keep track of the isomorphism on the top of the heads. Okay, great. Then Kirsten asks, if you can say something more about the relation with Hilbert schemes. Oh, yeah, so the relation with Hilbert scheme is pretty straightforward. So when X is a point, say, then this embedding N of U into the point, that's just the, by definition, that's the sub-scheme of a Hilbert scheme that consists of LCI schemes. And it's known that this part of the Hilbert scheme is smooth. So this embedding, so U goes to embedding N from U to K is just represented by a sub-scheme of Hilbert scheme of A N, that then the sub-scheme of Hilbert scheme of A N is exactly this sub-schemes of Hilbert, the sub-schemes that form the Hilbert schemes that are locally completed intersection sub-schemes. Okay, so I, seems that wraps up the question round. So thanks a lot, Sasha, and also thanks to all the attendees. Wonderful to have you. And we'll see you all tomorrow. Thanks a lot indeed. Thank you. Thank you very much, Sasha. Okay. Lidry, how to say our pleasure in French? Our pleasure? Possibly, it was on pre, something like that. Yeah, yeah, that's it. Do you see, I'm improving, Sasha, during my stay in Digital Paris. Very good. At least I promise to learn more French words during the two weeks. That's it. You did. Okay.


Everyone, this is Christian Buckley doing another MVP buzz chat and I'm talking today with Bernat. Hello. Hi. I almost say it correctly, but yeah. Great. So close. So for folks that don't know you, who are you, where are you and what do you do? So my name is Bernat Agullo. I'm living in Barcelona and I'm a partner in a small data consulting company and we help our customers get their data right. Oh, that's just that easy. Wow. Well, yeah. I mean, my story is a bit more complex than that. I come from an engineering background and then I went to, I did some Erasmus program in Germany, but then I decided I wanted something more fancy. So I went to Japan and not only that, but I did a PhD in sort of like organizational behavior. So I went right into the social sciences realm and somehow I managed to finish that, but I also decided that this was not my thing. So after hanging out there a little longer with a friend I made, I helped him like doing stuff in Excel and so on. And when I came back, I managed to move into the, to Excel and macros because yeah, there's a lot of work there and that's what I started really doing macros. So I just like done one before that job, but that job was like macros and Excel. So I did like for five years, I love that because it's like every day I learn new stuff. Eventually, I had to move out of that project and I like, well, did some other stuff. And at some point, I joined another project where I was doing macros, but macros with a SQL server. So I learned SQL, which was very nice. And from there, I finally moved to my current company. And then that's what I learned like integration services. And then I did something with Tableau at the beginning. And then at some point I did see Power BI. I was like, whoa, this is very nice. And I love that a lot. And then I did the project in click and it was like, oh my God, I love Power BI so much now. And then I, well, and there was a pandemic and all that. And at some point, I heard about projects were like not coming that often. Yeah. And I decided, okay, well, it's not a big deal. Let's learn this Power BI thing all to the very bottom of it. Yeah. So in the process, what happened is, I don't know, during the pandemic, one of the side effects is that I gave up on Facebook and I started hanging out in Twitter. It's like, okay, which I hated before. And I was like, okay, then when I started focusing on Power BI, I said, okay, let's see what's up in Power BI in Twitter. And then I found out that's like, quite an interesting thing going on. And then I also saw that even when I posted something, and I received very warm welcome is like, wow, this is cool. And so on is like, wait, wait a minute. And then I realized, okay, let's do this properly. So I started a block. I started the Power BI only Twitter account. Actually, the other one just died. And I started being very focused on that. So I would not follow anything out of Power BI. I would not like even things that were not Power BI. I will only post Power BI stuff. And I keep focusing on also on putting stuff on my block. Yeah. So at some point it started to work. So also I did, well, in this process, I discovered this MPP thing as like, oh, this is very nice. And okay. So let's see how this works. So I started to look for opportunities to share what I was there. At the beginning, I was fine just in the hanging out in the Power BI user group in Barcelona, which is a WhatsApp group mostly. I mean, they do have like some activities going on on Meetup. But this is a very active and very nice WhatsApp group. And then from there, I, somebody said, hey, there's this activity.  It was like, I don't know. I could do something on calculation groups, which was a topic that people were starting to think of me and calculation groups like as a together thing. Because I would always post things about calculation groups. And I said, maybe I can handle like an introduction to calculation groups presentation. And I did that in the Power BI boot camp in 2021. Was that your first time presenting? I mean, you did. Yeah, I jumped right into that. But I mean, with your with your education, you had a lot of experience going through and presenting and defending your work and doing that side of it. So it's that's harder than than doing it. But sometimes people just make it to be so scary to do that first session, share my work. I don't want people to be critical of the project. Yeah, this is something I realized in my job now with my partner. And he like wrote a PowerPoint. And then I like, would you like some feedback? He gives me and I was like, this is out, out, out, out. This should be the other way. And he has to grow used to my very extensive feedback on anything that I'm asked about. Hey, have somebody to go through and do editing. That's a cherished thing. I wish I need more of that in my life. Yeah, this is, I think it's basically what I learned on my PhD is to write properly. But this is very valuable. Like, what do you want to say, you know, like, don't go around it, don't make words that look nice and really like be able to say, this is, yeah, just a filling word. And this is what you mean. Bernard, I have to tell you, I'm a bit stuck on the Japan organizational management PhD. Well, don't worry too much about it. Well, the only reason because I so I absolutely love, I took Japanese I've forgotten it all, you know, but took it when I was younger. I almost moved my family there for an earlier job. But I also so I had I was on the fence of doing an MBA, which I ended up doing in technology management or the MAOM and going that route, because my plan was to go get a PhD in social informatics and study collaboration technology and the impact. So the social teams like so we'll have to we'll have to have a conversation separately on that. Yeah, probably take a look. But it was very, very cool. I mean, in the space, it was funny when I think it would be when you're talking about macros, like, so I was a hardcore Excel like 30 years ago is started my career as an analyst and a technical writer. And the old version of Excel before they Microsoft, you know, like kind of rebuilt it. And so I would build these simple macros and automate printing and table creation and kind of for publishing purposes. And, you know, it got so complex very quick, but it almost feels like with power platform, and with all the data platform, MBPs, and specifically people doing power platform development, that we're getting back into kind of where it feels like where I started in my career, which was databases everywhere, combining and integrating databases, trying to build intelligent applications. Of course, we were there was no system or platform for building them 30 years ago, we were, it was very rudimentary and very messy. But it just feels like we're getting back into that world where everybody is kind of experimenting with building apps and creating pulling from multiple data sources. And it's just it's a growing area. True. I mean, what I mean here that the business that Microsoft is holding into is that there's a lot of people waiting for the IT team to solve their problems.  And they allow this, well, working solutions to be put in place, but then of course comes the governance. How are you going to do that? Do you even allow the user to get what they want? The answer should be so yes, because at least when the IT has the time to do it, at least we'll have something that already works to get in the hands into, which is much better that we need so and so. And then when they are finished, maybe this is not needed anymore. So in the process, you'll have some solutions that will fall apart and the other ones that will stick. And so I think it's a good thing that people are more empowered to do what they want to do. But you cannot forget about doing things properly. So you need to have a good way to do things. You cannot leave everything around forever. That's one of those big questions around the governance around building all these solutions. And it's not that there's one answer for that. It's not like, hey, I installed the governance app and we're good now. No, it's takes a lot more thought and runs around. But I do like that idea, having been in largely IT organizations most of my career of encouraging people to go and self-solve, even if they just do a mock-up. I mean, I remember people bringing to us, I ran a shared services team for years, and people would bring like a mock-up that they built in PowerPoint. Here's how I want it to. This is what I needed to do. It was like, hey, well, that's a lot more to go and build a solution. That's better than an email, indeed. The flip side of that is organizations need to be looking at the solutions that their people are. They can't just say, oh, yeah, well, it's going to be scalable. It'll work. It'll be secure. We're compliant. No, you can't just assume those things. You need to have a process to review. I mean, it's good because you allow people to think deeply on the problem. Yeah, sometimes, of course, the customer will come up with a solution that they imagine, and maybe they don't know that there's some other technology that can maybe make things better. But in terms of interface, it's very, very helpful what they imagine because it's what will feel natural to them. And if you have something better that you think it's better, then you have to prove it. But they already have some idea. And, well, I don't know. That's what I like, especially on BI, having one feet on the technical side and one feet on the business side, you need to learn so many things. Now I'm like, I don't know, loans. There's so many concepts going on. I have to learn all these things to make sense of all the data that they're going about. And, well, and then it was hotel reservations or anything that comes into the business. And it's fun. It's fun, actually. But I actually like the fact that not being there forever, you know, it's just like kind of a story that you leave, you help, you do it best. And it's like, okay, now you're good to go. And you can take on another challenge. Well, that's something about, you know, I think about the gig economy and, you know, and project workers or consultants. And for many years, I mean, I'd say the first half of my career, you know, it was almost like looked down upon.  It's like, well, hiring a lot of these people is like, look, I hired them to solve that problem. They did. We looked around for some other things. Maybe there's another project or not. But there's it's, it's much more acceptable now to think that way about finding skilled personnel to build things. But yeah. Yeah. But after all, it's also about helping people get things done, you know, and it is always a good thing to do. And that's, I think that's what I like most about this job is the fact that I can help people. Like, we have this problem. Okay, we can do it this way. And I was like, oh, beautiful. And I was like, okay, let's do this. And yeah, and it's quite creative after all. I mean, even if we're like, we have a very, you know, fixed outcome, what they, what they want and how it should look at the same time. Now there's even more options than they used to be. And I'm like, oh, should we do that in data factory or SSIS or I don't know, power query? I don't know. There's so many interactions between the different technologies now. They're like, well, we could start with this and then maybe we'll move to some other thing else. And even from the technology side, it's not so square as I believe it used to be at least. And also from the governance side, now I'm in the Melissa coach course and also like, well, you could do this or you could do that. It depends on your organization and what you value most and how the culture is. And so at the end of the day, it's like, okay, you think a lot and okay, let's go this way. And from there we'll take it. If it's wrong, then we'll change course. Otherwise we'll stick with it. I cannot do much better than this. My philosophy is always like, well, let's move things forward.  Just learn from that. Go and iterate, fail quickly, learn from it, improve upon it. Yeah. Get your best decision with what you have now and then maybe later you'll have more things and then you'll have a better decision, but it's okay. It's okay. Well, that's kind of the secret to management. It's management is about making decisions for the business and you have to make decisions based on limited data. And so you do your best with the data that you have and then you learn and you adjust as you go. That's part of what I like about a lot of the data platform space, the power platform space is that, again, let's go and iterate on this. Let's build a solution that solves this. Because the other problem, this goes back to my business analyst role at the beginning of my career. It's like, when do you ask people, what are you trying to achieve? What do you want out of this solution? And people will share their requirements, the desired outcomes, based on their lens of understanding today. So if they're going to go and give you the requirements based on what they think the limitations are of the system. So if you go in and show them all this fancy advance, keep them like, we can do all these things, suddenly their requirements will pile up. They'll get very crazy. Then you have to pair it down. What do you actually need there? And so that's why the iterative process allows you to help them envision what else you can do, which opens up their minds to, hey, I didn't even think of this. If we can do that, then that allows us to also do these other things, integrate with this other system, or automate this aspect. This style is still hard to sell at least here in Barcelona. Look, just assign us some people and we'll work better and you'll see that, yeah, but we need the date and the cost. It's like, okay, it's a waterfall. It's complicated. I mean, at the end, it might look like it, but it would be easier if they get on board and trust that the system will provide value to them. Right. Now, that is the dilemma of modern development is exactly that. Very cool. I mean, because there are teams that maybe will not deliver that value. So I understand that this is not, I mean, they could go on and on forever. So they want to have something like, hey, you said you would have this and you don't have it. Well, that's why I go back to what I said. It's great to have citizen developers in there. It's like, hey, this is working or we get 80% of what we need here. Here's what they did. You might then go in there and say, well, yeah, but it's not, from a governance standpoint, you're not compliant with these things that you need. It's unsecured in these ways, but you understand what they're trying to do and then can re-architect or modify and go from there. Or thoughtful and scratch, we just have to scrap entirely. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, but even scrapping it entirely, but you have an idea of what there is the expected behavior, what they need. Yeah, that is true. That is true. Yeah. I mean, I've seen all possibilities already. Like some companies, it's free for all. Everybody do whatever they feel like. Some other companies, they have like a reporting department. Nobody gets hands on the data outside that department. You have all the possibilities out there and well, it's good to get used to them. Yeah. Well, again, that's why I said it feels so much like, that's where I started with my career. It felt like that. It was a bit of the wild west. We're trying to do more with that, but where we'd have outside of consultants and be like, want to go and re-architect. We're like, yeah, that's fine, but we're live, we're in production. So we want to modify, we want to improve it. We want to build the newer model that's more secure and all those things, but we can't stop what we're doing today. Ooh. Okay. Anyway, so yeah, that was a different world. That was a long time ago. I'm old, but that's all.  Anything that like has stood out to you that you're really passionate about? New developments. I don't know. I'm, you know, one of my two topics that are more like, that people associate with me more and more is like, one is calculation groups, which is, which I think there's something coming up from what I've seen on Twitter. So we'll see what happens if they finally arrive in the desktop or what. And then there's a, well, the C sharp scripts for a tabular editor. They finally have like some intelligence built in the tabular editor three and and then hopefully like custom classes will be stored easily soon. We'll see how that works as well. And yeah, I don't know. I just, I like to promote these two worlds and which combine quite a lot. And I've been signing up for presentations like in Spanish, English, and Japanese, which I signed up yesterday for two presentations, which I still haven't figured out how I will do them. I did one last year in December. And that was very, very good in a way because I used to do them like in a PowerPoint and then jumping into the Power BI desktop and showing something back and forth. But the Japanese people, there's something that they like very much. And that is something that is easy to understand, which probably everybody likes, but Japanese people like it more, I think. If somebody says to your presentation, that was easy to understand. You should take that with the most valuable thing ever. I mean, they love that. So not that mine was like that, but in the rehearsal process, which was very kindly offered by one of who is now in the cut team, so Aikisui, and then one of the group organizers there in Japan, it was clear that it was not easy to understand what my approach was. And then I really decided to redesign the whole presentation and do it all inside Power BI desktop. Because he was like, okay, you mean that? Okay, show me. And then boom, I have to like, oh. So I can show people directly in Power BI desktop. It was a pain to set up because you have to set up so many bookmarks and stuff and so on. But after that, you put that bookmark visor thing, then would you just click next, next, next, next? And you can do sort of a Power BI and interact with all of the Power BI, not just the report, but also you can show people how's the definition of the measure or how the table looks like. And then jump into our tabular editor and show back and forth. And I think that was a big improvement to my presentation. So I'm very glad I did that. We'll see how these next presentations go. One is an introduction to C-sharp scripts. And the other one is about data validation in Power BI, which is like something I've come back to a few times. And then I put all the topics together in one presentation. So things that you can check about your data. I mean, you should not blindly trust your data. So something might be wrong. And if you're lucky, it will break your loading process. But you should be sure. I mean, that it loads, but also if something left out because of errors, also about the referential integrity, do you have things missing on your dimensions? And then the other one is like business logic. I mean, maybe there's a field that can have two values and then suddenly the third value appears. I mean, most of the cases, maybe you don't need all those checked. But if you need them, how should you go about it? And then there's some scripts that make most of this work easy. And to have like some summary and then some dynamic button. And these I'll be showing as well in, I'll go live in Sweden this year. I'll be traveling there on my own with my family. We'll just like the end of the summer. And are all these primarily community events like the Japan events? The Japan is a data platform event. Yeah, I think it's a bit bigger than the regular user group thing. Yeah. And the one in Sweden is the data Saturdays. So I really don't know much, but I think it'd be larger than the user group. Kind of the theme of the other events. Yeah. I don't know. I had a friend that was like, okay, I'll send a session if I get accepted, I'll go visit her. Yeah. So that's what we'll do. That's another thing for people that are wanting to kind of get into this speaking and sharing more like the community. It's like user groups are really easy to go and do. Everybody like everybody's always looking for speakers. There's a lot of opportunities for brand new people, even if you've never done a presentation before. But some of these larger events and there was like SQL Saturday and SharePoint Saturday. Now community days and there's all versions of those all over the place as well that people can get into depending on your focus area. There's Azure events that are happening all the time. There's a lot of ways that you can go and if you want to share the project that you're working on at work that you're proud of and it doesn't mean you're an expert in all things, but here's what we did. Here's how we did it. Here's how we answer this issue and share that. It's a great way to get started. Yeah. Actually, when I started, I did that first one without thinking much and probably I would come and then later I realized that there's reasons and events call it new stars of data or something like this, which is especially focused on new speakers. But then because I had already presented, it was like not eligible anymore. It was like, okay, whatever. Just roll on with the next day, man. But you need really to be careful because sometimes you sign up for too many things and then you end up stress out for something that is completely volunteer. It doesn't make any sense. It's the FOMO. It's the fear of missing out. A lot of people get that. I can proudly say that for the most part, I do not have FOMO anymore. That's a good thing. Yeah. Yeah. You have to just let go and you don't need to be everywhere and do everything. But yeah. Well, very cool. Well, Bernard, it's really great to meet you. I hope to see you more than virtually at some point and get over to your part of the world. So we'll keep in touch. But thanks for participating in this series and for folks that want to get in touch with you. What are the best ways to reach you via social or otherwise? Yeah, I would say Twitter is a great place to find me. So Agulio Bernard. And otherwise, LinkedIn is also there. And I do even have my email on my MVP page. So feel free to contact, especially if it's about calculation groups and C-sharp scripts. Of course. All right. Well, hey, really appreciate your time. Thank you.


Death tolls soared in the fighting between Israel and Hamas on Thursday with more than 2,800 lives claimed on both sides as the elevated conflict entered its sixth day. More than 1,572 Palestinians have been killed in the fighting, with over 7,200 wounded, the Palestinian Health Authority said on Thursday. The tally includes 1,537 deaths and about 6,600 injuries in the enclosed territory of Gaza. Death toll on the Israeli side rose to 1,300, with around 3,300 wounded, according to the Israeli Ministry of Health, as cited by a local TV station on Thursday, the ongoing conflict escalated drastically on Saturday after Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, fired thousands of rockets into Israel in a massive surprise attack. Israel has responded with numerous airstrikes and retaliatory measures. Oh, this side has half of it. After all, it burned the other half.

I am Jasper Thiebo, I'm a research soil assistant professor at the Carrington Research Extension Center at NDSU. In 2017, we started a study to examine the effects of planting dates as well as phosphorus application on the yields of soybeans. It was important for us to do this study because it is widely believed that when soybean is planted early, there's a higher responsiveness to phosphorus applied. So we started this study in 2017 and we are conducting this study for the last year in 2020. We did this study at three sites, two at Carrington, one under dryland and one under irrigation. And we did one at an offsite location, Oaks, which is also under irrigation. Now we had three rates of phosphorus. We applied 40 pounds and 80 pounds of phosphorus. We did not apply phosphorus to one of the plots. What we have found is that for all the three years that we have conducted this study, phosphorus has not significantly impacted soybean yields, except for one. So for three site years, meaning three years, three sites, giving a total of nine site years, we had one single year where yields were significantly improved by phosphorus application. And this happened in Oaks, where the previous crop was potato and the potato was desiccated. So because of desiccation, some of the microbes in the soil, the mycorrhizae, were affected. As a result, when soybean was planted the following season, this mycorrhizae could not make the phosphorus available for uptake by soybean. So when we applied fertilizer, it enhanced availability and uptake by the crop. That was probably the reason why there was an impact of phosphorus applied at Oaks. But in the other locations and other years, phosphorus did not impact yields. Now, when we did the economics, we calculated, we estimated how much the farmer would have made or lost based on the treatments. In 2017, with the application of 20 pounds of phosphorus at Carrington, there was a loss of 28 or almost $29 per acre. Meanwhile, under irrigation, still at Carrington, the farmer would have lost $55 per acre. Now you multiply those by two to get the rate at 40 pounds phosphorus. At Oaks in that 2017, the only year that we had significant effect of phosphorus on yield, the farmer would have made $33 per acre in gain when he applied 20 pounds of phosphorus. And at 40 pounds of phosphorus, he would have made $19 per acre. So like we said, for the rest of the other seasons, growing seasons, the farmer did not see any significant yield improvement. So he was at a loss. Now, when farmers apply phosphorus, most often it is to enhance or increase the amount of phosphorus in the soil to maintain the level at the sufficiency level so that when the next season corn or wheat is planted, you should have adequate phosphorus and just enough to apply that the corn or the subsequent crop would take up. So farmers are recommended to apply just the amount of phosphorus that the crop would take up when they have adequate amount of phosphorus in the soil. What is adequate amount? Now, when the phosphorus in the soil is less than 9 ppm, which is 18 pounds per acre, it is inadequate. It is not sufficient. Now from about 9 ppm to about 12 ppm, that is sufficient or that is medium. But we want the recommendation is for farmers to apply phosphorus so that they can maintain a high level from 12 ppm to about 15 ppm. When phosphorus in the soil is above 15 ppm, phosphorus is not recommended for farmers. Now, in North Dakota, recommendations are made because we want to maintain the phosphorus at adequate level or at high level. Secondly, to ensure that yields are not penalized when the phosphorus in the soil is less than adequate. We also want to ensure that there's enough phosphorus for a subsequent crop that comes after soybeans. Now, North Dakota farmers should be cautious to not expect an economic benefit from applying phosphorus to soybeans. This presentation will be available also on PowerPoint. And if you have any question, please email me or call me using the link or half on the PowerPoint. Thank you.


An unhealthy population is at a higher risk to die of COVID-19. That's bad news for Americans, says preventive and public health expert David L. Katz. Older people and people with significant prior health conditions, such as heart disease and diabetes, are much more likely to be hospitalized or die from the coronavirus. Immune system disorders, cancers, and chronic lung diseases are also associated with greater risk. Dr. Katz and his colleagues estimated that about 45 percent of Americans, based on a CDC survey, had at least one of the factors that put them at a higher risk for severe infection. Utah had the lowest percentage of people at risk at 40 percent, while West Virginia was the highest with 60 percent. They also estimated that around 30 to 35 percent of people in China have at least one risk factor. If true, this could mean the U.S. is facing a potentially higher mortality rate than China. Everyone knows a better diet and more physical activity lowers the risk of chronic diseases, but these actions can also reduce acute risk from the coronavirus today.


There you have it. It's official. The Ravens have placed a non-exclusive Franchise tag on quarterback Lamar Jackson So Lamar Jackson is free to negotiate with whichever team he's interested in or and is interested in him as well And it's like yes those reports that came out a couple days ago, they end up being correct About the Ravens strongly considering thinking about using the non-exclusive franchise tag. They did it They did it In the way, I know y'all know already how it works because we have all talked about this a lot but the way that it works is Team can sign him to an offer sheet Lamar can negotiate with a team They can come up with a deal that team signs him to that that deal on offer sheet Ravens have one two three four five days to match it Five days to match it and if they match it, it's like alright Lamar. You're staying in Raven. Alright, that's the deal They came up with okay. We got it. Let's go. Let's get it. Let's make it happen or They can decline to match it And they can give you whatever reason they can say oh well, we just couldn't do it or they could just say we just Not gonna do it They will take the two first-round picks The the teams 23 and 24 first-round picks 2023 and 24 first-round picks And it will be by to Lamar Jackson So we'll see Now we just gotta wait it out and see we've waited this far. I mean, what's another Who knows how long this next process is gonna be now Because now it all depends on Lamar Now the Ravens have officially put the ball in Lamar's court all the way Because now he can go talk to whoever come up with whatever deal and again the Ravens could be like yay or they could be like nay I don't know man. I I do still think that this is gonna end with Lamar Jackson not Being a Baltimore Raven. I hope it doesn't end that way, but to me it just seems that way Ravens willing to take a risk like this And I mean they they did talk about Eric Dacosta came out and said it and I believed him when he said that when he said that They got contingency plans. They thought about all their different options and their business So they have to do that they have to do this I ain't knocking them for thinking about both life with and both life without Lamar because as a business as a franchise You have to think about those things. I Just wish that life during Lamar that the thought process would have just been a lot different But that's the past now. We hear now. We hear so Now it's just a matter of time And I wonder how Lamar is gonna paste this thing I wonder if he's gonna start talking to people immediately Because this is this is based on his interest Say for instance the Panthers they hit up Lamar. They like hey look we want to sign you to this deal This is the guarantee done. Dada Lamar could be like. Yeah, okay cool Lamar could be like no, no, thanks Say for instance the Dolphins because the dolphins have been a team that a lot of people been talking about say for instance The dolphins hit them up like hey Lamar. This is what we're gonna give you We can give you this much guarantee for this long and this the average for a year. Dada Now if Lamar likes the deal he could be like hey dolphins. I love that but He would have to wait until after the draft Because the dolphins don't have a 2023 first-round pick and since the dolphins don't have a 2023 first-round pick They cannot sign him to an offer sheet before the draft So they got to sit this one out for now at least so It's gonna be interesting how this thing works out But again, if he does one of if the dolphins are interested in him and he is interested in them They would just have to wait Until after the draft was over then they could talk all they wanted to because then it would move to a 2024 and 2025 first-round pick that the Ravens would get for one Lamar Jackson And then even a scenario like that That would make it even more interesting because then we will be watching extra closely at what the Ravens draft And if the Ravens ended up drafting a quarterback Then that would pretty much let us know like okay. It's over But what if the Ravens didn't draft the quarterback? Well, I mean again, so so like I'm glad that we finally have something solid The transaction has been made between the Ravens and Lamar Jackson Well, the Ravens on Lamar Jackson because he ain't signed it yet, but It's not over and it's not close to being over yet But this is a step in I can't even necessarily say the right direction, but this is a step in Whatever the direction both parties are going in now So Yeah, man, like I said, risky business risky business This could pay off in a big way for the Baltimore Ravens. It could work in their favor If Lamar got a team that he interested in and they signed to offer sheet and it looks like this friendly to the Ravens It's something that they were gonna do and it could be a great deal for them for Lamar for both sides. Oh, yeah, let's go We'll definitely match that But if it looks too scary for them if it's something that they don't feel like is worth it then Yeah, and if a team wants Lamar, then they are going to try to structure this thing so the Ravens don't match it Because no team will waste their time signing Lamar Jackson to an offer sheet and Coming up with a deal and constructing a deal if they really did not want Lamar There will be no point in even wasting anybody's time So, you know, whatever team signs them to an offer sheet. There's gonna be somebody that's genuinely interested Diana Rossini She said that the Falcons She said that out of the Lamar Jackson sleepsticks. She said they will no longer be pursuing Lamar Jackson And Initially, I'm like, okay. Well, that sounds good at that takes a team out of it But then at the same time, I felt like hold up. We've heard stuff like this before Where a team is heavily interested in somebody and then they like, ah, you know what? No, never mind, but then we see sometimes stuff changes as we all know things can change just like that and a team ends up changing in mind Circling right back. Oh, you know what? We actually all injured. So we'll see but for now, at least the Falcons are apparently out of it But what teams are in We won't know till we know so Waiting game again Waiting game Like I said earlier, we got this far. So I guess we can get as far as this thing is going to stretch yourself out for but one of the the beauties about this whole thing is that when when Lamar does sign The next offer sheet what whoever he gets the offer sheet from whatever team decides it wants to be that team Whoever he signs it with We will know within a little less than a week from that point if Lamar Jackson is going to remain a Baltimore Raven or If he is going to be out
