Hey everyone, welcome to figure fantasy. So we're here to discuss whether Ignite teams are really good as a pure ignite team or Would they be better with a little bit mix of other figures that don't have ignite, you know capabilities or synergy So with this team, I am with final counter strike in one of the teams I think I'm at level five, which I'm using Galatea team So for this team, we have a non ignite member, which is Ayane At this point, I don't have any other Defender to hold the fort. I have Sonad of course, but he's not built yet for this type of action So I have to be contented with Ayane. So going back to ignite teams They are mainly good as support, especially for damages, especially for mobs built Mobs like these wherein you have to take a lot of them down ignite teams are very handy, but definitely you'll be needing other Figures that are not part of the ignite team. So Ayane is one again of the examples We'll discuss more later about the possible ignite teams and Some of the possible additions that you could add to your ignite teams to make them Know more viable in this playing environment. So again, as you see there, I'm defeated But again, your ignite teams are kind of weak because they belong to Galatea and Galatea doesn't have That much options in terms of figures Okay, so going back to your ignite team Again, you have to mix and match with non ignite figures like for example, you can use Erixia She's she has no synergy With ignite but definitely she'll keep your team alive The other one that I mentioned for an ignite team is a possible synergy with is a possible You know add-on would be Ayane if you need more, you know, if you need more frontline or defenders And that's about it Only both of them. I feel You'll be, you know, you can't incorporate to your team as far as your ignite team is concerned If you want to put up a pure ignite team first and foremost, you have instead of Ayane you may use Sanada Okay, Sanada is if Sanada is actually good Particularly with ignite teams he holds his own well and You can actually incorporate him as your primary defender. The other option would be Zhaoyun here. So Zhaoyun could be your DPS could be your pseudo tank But definitely if you don't have these two leveled up high Ayane could really take their place So that's in position one. The other position is your front DPS would be Ultraman as well If you guys don't have him the option for him would definitely be Only Zhaoyun again again, if you haven't had Ultraman before then Zhaoyun would really take in his place again because Zhaoyun has a synergy with ignite due to his adornment and you don't have any other Vanguard DPS here to take their place So you'll have to be contented with Ultraman or Zhaoyun also for your For your militarist your options here would be the newly added Arisa Arisa is actually very good, especially if you are phasing up a big boss the other option for her if you don't have her is Is not him is Lubu. Lubu is a fantastic option She all those Lubu doesn't have any ignite synergy to him But an a possible swap in so Zhaoyun on the other hand As a must for any ignite team is your only healer here and combined with Eriksia they could be a very good defensive tandem for your team and The last one would be Akechi Akechi Matsuhide if you if you're trying to put in more offense instead of defense He can be good. So the my bottom line with ignite teams is They are good, but you need to supplement them at this point You cannot I think it would be impossible to put in a purely ignite team and expect that team to win I don't think it would be a reality So probably a three figure ignite team or a four figure ignite team Then the other two would be supplemented by non ignite synergy You know figures the other one that I would like you to consider guys is exploring beyond The brand so you can actually also put in re re has a very good ignite What do you call this as a very good ignite? Function so burn damage the lower the burn resist the hard amount burn damage taken so please take note of this because She gives out additional extra burn damage equal to 40% of these attack. So for her Lower burn resist is actually bringing Akechi because Akechi here is the one who Lowers Sorry To the passive reduces all enemies burn resist with 25% so if you plan to bring Re into play then you must bring in this guy here to add more Firepower to your ignite teams again. Those are options that you can pursue If you want to ask me your staple here with for your burn team if you want the the core of your burn team It would be basically is how you The other one the other staple would be ultra man supposedly But if you guys again, don't have him you have to replace him but they're going to be staples in your burn team and The other one the third one For your burn team as a staple would be This girl Arisa so Arisa Ultraman and Zau you will be your core the rest will be interchangable Definitely you can swap in Eryxia there For your defender you could choose between Ayane Sanada and Zau you the three of them that I mentioned Ultraman Zau you and Arisa are going to be your new mainstays for your For your ignite team. So hopefully guys I was able to you know Give you guys some tips in terms of how to run your ignite team at this point You can't really put in a pure ignite team. We still lack a lot of figures for Galatea, but again, I hope this helps and if you have questions on Team build please put them down in the comment section below. Thank you guys for staying this far.  This is the warden and I'm out of here


My name is Danny and welcome to Esoteric Moment. Today I'm doing another book review and that is a very popular book that many Druids really love that is the Druidry Handbook by John Michael Greer. This author wrote the book while he was the Archdruid of AODA, which is the ancient order of Druids in America. This book actually serves as the main textbook for their first course. Of course, purchasing the book does not automatically make you a member of their organization or start you along that path, but it is a really good way to catch the flavor of that order's Druidry. The book has a few different parts, the first part being mostly history, especially about the revival of Druidry. It's brief but very easy to read. If you're someone who's really into reconstructionist viewpoints and paganism, it's probably not going to be to your taste, but generally it's pretty interesting. This order does use a fair amount of work from this author. I'm just gonna write it up here because I can never pronounce it correctly. The order I belong to, Obad also does, but I'm always a little squeamish when he comes up as a source because his academic methods are really sketchy. You know, you have to look at his resources, understanding that he made up a lot of it. We're not sure what is really historical and what isn't, that doesn't take away from his inspiration, but I always like to throw that caveat out when he comes up. The second part of the book kind of talks about modern Druidry and what a practice in today's world looks like. The author talks a little bit about Olin, talks a little bit about the Olin symbol and rays of inspiration. He talks a little bit about inspiration for a modern pagan like Merlin, Taliesin, the King Arthur stories, how myth plays a role into a modern practice. And then part three is where you get to the meat of the book. And it talks about the order's three paths, the earth path, the moon path and the sun path. The sun path being celebrating the year, doing the equinoxes and solstices, celebrations and maybe cross quarter days. The earth path is one of action and practice, one of how do you make your life be more sustainable and in sync? How do you observe nature and work with it?  And then the moon path is all about meditation. And there's a lot in this book about that path in particular. Interestingly, the author goes pretty in depth about how he feels readers should be doing meditation and what meditation forms are best for a druid practice. And there's this weird kind of tension between the author saying, there are lots of ways of doing this and do what works for you. And also being like, this is the best way, this is really the way that you should be doing meditation. And that tension really kind of frustrated me, especially on meditation. I don't think that there is a best way of meditating. And I think beginners in particular benefit from feeling like they have lots of options and that they can't fail. And establishing a practice of meditation is one of the hardest things you can do. I think beginners should feel like they can be as comfortable as they want and whatever position works for them and that there isn't a wrong way practice. It is a practice. Generally, I think the book is well written. The tone is really easy to read. It's a pretty fast read. I think many people will get a lot out of this book and if you're interested in druidry but still kind of not sure what it means to have a druid practice or you're kind of thinking about what order works for you, I definitely would read this one. AODA is never an order that really appealed to me. Kind of the way they set up their groves and how ritual is done in their organization is just not quite my thing at this point. But there are lots of members and they have some great resources. This book being one of them. Interesting thing about the very end of the book is that it includes a pretty detailed explanation of what your first degree course would be like through this organization, which I think is a level of transparency that you don't get in all of the organizations for druidry and is really useful when trying to figure out what works for you. Or if you're deciding to work solitary, not belong to an organization at all, I think it can give you a really great jumping off point on how would you formulate a year and a day study practice or what would really work for you. If you are interested in other druid orders and you haven't experienced AODA, I think this is a great resource. And if you're just trying to understand what druidry means in a modern context, I really think this is a must read. In the comments below, I would love to hear if you have read anything by John Michael Greer and if so, what your favorite title was from him. Thanks for watching and as always may you find peace in the sacred grove. Today I am filming from Brittingham Community Garden which is one of the community gardens that I'm a member of. And I wanted to film from here so that we could talk about connecting to plants and learning how to really establish a relationship with those plants.


Hi, I'm Keith Ghostland. I'm Linda Quinlan. I'm Ann Charles. Welcome to all things LGBTQ. We're taping on Tuesday, May 3rd, and we'd like to acknowledge that we're in Montpelier, Vermont, which is unceded indigenous land. So now let's turn to Keith. And and this week's trivia question that I already said people should know the answer to this. We didn't. No, we didn't. But we'll explain at the end. So May is Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month. And this was the first out LGBTQ plus person elected to the US Congress. But bonus points if you remember the year. Good luck with that. So events. And you know where I'm going to start. You're discussing and discussing and women's discussion group is still meeting. Book discussion group is meeting. Yep. And you can find it all on rainbow umbrellas in the center of Vermont. Alrighty. So May 14th, Saturday night, my birthday, to celebrate your birthday, get out your dancing shoes because it's the 27th winter is a drag ball at higher ground. And this is sponsored by the House of LeMay. Now, this is a rescheduled event. So if you happen to have tickets from the previous date, they're still going to honor them. But if you didn't get tickets, you still got a chance. Our friends in East Montpelier, Fox Market, they bought the building. And they said they did it to ensure that there will be a community home for years to come. Good. And so to help them celebrate on Thursday, May 19th, they're doing drag karaoke. It kind of scares me, but from 7 to 9 p.m., but also on May 19th, from 1130 to 9 p.m. At El Gatos, at the Burlington locale, it's Pride Eats. 10% of all their proceeds goes to the Pride Center of Vermont. And of note, the Pride Center of Vermont's online auction ends if you're watching this on Saturday night tomorrow. So if there's something you're interested in, get your bid in now. May 21st is Community Planting Day at the Star Farm Community Garden in Burlington. It's not nude gardening. I know there's a day for nude gardening. You promised that you wouldn't share that. National Nude Gardening Day. For our next show, I'll look that up. And we'll see if we tell you locales. No, this was a joint effort between the Pride Center of Vermont and the Burlington Parks Recreation Waterfront. And it's to create ongoing LGBTQ plus community gardening space. So this is something that will continue year after year after year. So that felt kind of nice. The 21st is also Queer Youth Summit. This is outright Vermont's annual event. 10 in the morning to 8.30 at night. It's going to be at the Brattleboro High School. They're going to have a Queer Prom. Yeah, registration is open. So if there are GSA's youth who want to attend, now is the time to sign up. They're also looking for volunteers. People who are willing to go in and help set up, serve lunch, help deconstruct. Just be the handy person at need. Okay, the biggies coming up are Central Vermont Pride. Right. And I'm told there might be an event in the planning that might have to do with poetry and, you know... Other possible activities. And writers and... It could be comedians too. We're looking at comedians. And so a devious person could be working on that. Yep. But on Friday, June 3rd is the free concert of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra. And it's at the Episcopal Church here in town 7 o'clock. And I'm told that the Vermont Symphony is going to focus on Queer Composers. It isn't just... It's not that they're just doing this free concert. They're focusing on our communities. I wish they were doing show tunes. Steven Sondheim. It could happen. I haven't heard that it's being, you know, a narrow vision. But also, that's Art Walk. And they're looking at an LGBTQ plus theme as well. And then there is, both on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Shakespeare is doing their Romeo and Juliet Friday and Saturday at the Plainfield Opera House. Sunday afternoon is a matinee at the performance space in Hubbard Park. And then on Saturday, June 4th at 11 a.m. is the opening of Rainbow Bridge, which is the LGBTQ plus community center. Your calendar is getting full already. In Berry and Yesland, they're going to be offering, you know, support groups and speakouts and healthcare services. And they have a truly impressive board of directors to start with and service providers. So this is looking very interesting. But also on that day is the festival on the June 4th, Saturday, is the festival on the Statehouse lawn. You know, starting at noon, carrying on. Toussaint is supposed to be the emcee. Music, hopefully some poetry there as well. Just a chance for us to spend time with each other. And I haven't heard that they're planning any kind of speeches or whatever. This is truly a festival. And then the following weekend on June 11th, this is the Berry Pride Festival. And I still haven't seen a lot of details, but there are organizers in Berry that want to do something in downtown during the day. For visibility. Then Shakespeare is also doing performances there. And they're going to do the Central Vermont Drag Ball at night. Preceding it though is a, come on in, we'll have a drag closet and emoji. We'll be here and give you tips on how to dress up. So, and, and on our next show, I'll speak more about the future. Well, I was going to say all of the other Pride days that are popping up, there are activities planned for Rutland, Bennington, White River Junction, the People's Pride in Burlington, so we'll have more details on that. But I've taken too much time already. No, you, well, you know. You have to keep up. You'll cut me off if need be. Yes. Well, I have a story about Ellen DeGeneres' and her coming out. Rights of nature law clinic faces transphobia allegations. Progressives have been begging conservatives concerned about online censorship to join the fight to break up the biggest tech companies. Now those liberal activists are wondering whether to take on an ally with a separate agenda they hate. The limiting of trans and gay rights. So we'll see if they, what they do with that. Apple is quietly mobilizing. We'll have more on that. Director Caglin says she was opened up to horror by Carrie. We'll have more about that. Remember Carrie? I love that movie. Activists and author Patrice Cullors calls for resistance Incorporations. Oh, well, anyway, what she's, what she wanted to do was make sure that, you know, she's the queer founder of Black Lives Matter movement, and she cautions against getting caught up in the commercialization of pride. Oh, yeah. So she wants to remind queer people this month to join the larger resistance movements across the country. Oh, yeah. There we go. Yeah. And the director Juan Diego Solanas of top down on Netflix documentary about queer serial killer talks about how John Gacy crimes stretched far beyond Chicago killing grounds. Excuse me, he's doing a documentary because the generations isn't familiar with John Gacy. I don't know if that's important or not. I don't know if we were going to do LGBTQ plus history might opt to start someplace else. Well, there's Jeffrey Dahmer too. Moving on. Minnesota lesbian has labor pain, but it doesn't stop her. We have a picture of her. Erin May Quaid is part of the Democratic Farmers Labor Party where she spoke 24 hours before giving birth. She's running for the state Senate in Minnesota. Justice Department is hoping to stop Alabama's trans healthcare bill. The department filed a motion to intervene in a lawsuit against the ban and asked the court to keep it from becoming law and going into effect. A teacher, Calvin Hillisdell Land in North Dakota with 30 years experience and just before he's about to retire is coming under fire. A bigoted letter distributed to a group of trans high school students went public on social media. He is the German language teacher at Watertown High School, so he's going to get the boot. You see? Yeah, for supporting retirement. Kansas anti-trans bill officially dead. The state House of Representatives has failed to override Governor Laura Kelly's veto. The vote was very close, but fell short of the 84 needed. Good. Biden's nomination of Aina Rees, R-E-Y-E-S, if confirmed would be the first out lesbian and Hispanic judge to serve on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. It's probably Reyes. Maybe. R-E-Y-E-S, yeah. A bisexual student in Brigham Young University student found a way to show her pride at the school's graduation. Julian Orr opened her graduation gown to reveal a rainbow flag stitched inside by her sister, and I have a picture of her. She's happily opening her gown, and there's the rainbow flag. She knows how to accessorize an outfit. I know. Kansas lawmaker objects to huge transgender woman in the bathroom. Representative Cheryl Hellmer falsely claimed that trans people are predators, and denounced gender-affirming surgery. She objects to sharing the bathroom with her transgender colleague. Oh, there we go. Matia Roche is a lesbian super champ on Jeopardy. Another. Roche is 23 and has already gotten onto the list of Jeopardy records as she is 8th on the all-time consecutive games list and 10th on the all-time now on new tournament cash winnings. So she'll probably be up against, what was her name? Amy Schumer. Amy Schneider. Yeah, that'll be interesting. We'll have to watch that. And Jim Baker. You remember, I'll remember Jim Baker. We all discussed Tammy's death and everything on the show, yes.  I don't know where he's getting his information. Tammy told him.  Yeah, that's what they're saying. So. I'm in threatened to bomb Miriam Webster offices over the definition of female. David Hansen was charged in Springfield, Massachusetts. Bridgeton Stark, Golda Rocheville said that a lesbian director told her to stay in the closet, but they didn't say who that lesbian director was. Isabella Fierra stars in Crush, a new queer Hulu high school rom-com. And I think we'll move on to Ann, and I have some more stories, but we can get to them after. So, Ann, what do you have for us from around the world? Well, I have a lot of news. And remember, you're supposed to be the optimistic one now. I know I'm ending with an optimistic story. You're pacing yourself. It's a mixed report. Start with a bad news. From North America in Baja, California, the governor rejects a decree that prohibits efforts to correct sexual orientation and gender identity. So there's a conversion therapy outfit. And the legislature voted 20 to 4 to put it out of business. And the governor, instead of publishing it, actually she's the president, she announced that she's going to return it to Congress for revisions. Part of it was that she got it and made suggestions and they ignored her suggestions. This is my personal take on it. But there's a lot of quibbling about consent and so forth. But we'll see, actually, what she suggests. We have to wait and find out the modifications proposed by the governor of Baja, California. And if Congress defends the reform, it approved to ban this group. So there's a little controversy there. In South America, I have mixed news. The Inter-American Court rules in favor of a lesbian religion teacher in Chile. And I have a picture before you now. Her name is Sandra Pavez Pavez. She was fired in 2007. She was a religion teacher. She worked as a Catholic religion teacher and had done it since 1985 at Calejo Municipal Cardinal Antonio Samoriz in San Bernardo, a city just south of Santiago. The Catholic Church in 2007 revoked her certification that the Chilean Ministry of Education required for her to work as a religion teacher. She came out after a rumor began to circulate that she was involved with a woman. The clergy acted under a 1983 decree of the Pinochet, the notorious Pinochet government. And she also refused to undergo psychological and psychiatric therapy that the church offered. Which would have been conversion therapy. Probably. Chile's main LGBTQ rights group appealed the decision. It was rejected. And finally, the Supreme Court upheld the ruling. Both Chilean courts ruled that she had not suffered discrimination. So the Inter-American Court of Human Rights finally granted her appeal. As part of the resolution, the court offered comprehensive reparation measures to include a public act of recognition of international responsibility and guarantees of non-repetition. So this is a big deal, a breakthrough. Chile is also required to amend its policies towards educational institutions. PayPal has $35,000 in material and non-material damages and another $30,000 in costs and expenses. She retired in January without being able to return to the classroom. It was 15 years of struggle after my country denied me the right to practice the profession I studied and loved so much. I regret that the discrimination I suffered at the hands of the church and the Supreme Court was accompanied by the total silence of successive governments in Chile, which never showed solidarity with my cause. I trust that the current government will turn things around and fully comply with the sentence. The court has been clear that the state cannot discriminate, activists say, but of course this woman's career was ruined. So monetary compensation is good and of course the ruling is good, but a lot of damage was done to her personally. Now I have a picture from Uruguay of the first transgender lawmaker, Michelle Suarez, who has just died at 39. She was the first openly transgender lawmaker. In 2014 she won a seat in the Uruguayan Senate. She was an alternative senator without full voting privileges until October 2017. So she had kind of a checkered career. She was the first trans woman to graduate from a Uruguayan university and the first trans lawyer in the country. She wrote Uruguay's same-sex marriage law that took effect in 2013. So that's really her signal accomplishment. She resigned in December 2017 amid allegations that she forged legal documents. In 2019, a court in 2019 sentenced her to two years of house arrest and two years of probation. She was also banned from holding public office and working as a lawyer until 2023. And she had been in the hospital with a cardiac problem when she died. So it's a shame that her career was tarnished by these fraud charges and, you know, any of it. She's a trailblazer. Asia, good and bad news. I have two stories. The good news is South Korea's Supreme Court throws out the conviction of two gay soldiers. And I reported on this at the time.  And the court said that the conviction by a military tribunal stretched the reading of the controversial anti-sotomy law that's applicable to military personnel.  These two gay soldiers, it's the first time that a South Korean court has disagreed with the application of the law. In 2016, the couple, a first lieutenant and master sergeant were charged after they were found to have had sex in a private house outside their military bases. The court sentenced the first lieutenant to four months in prison and the master sergeant to three months. Both sentences were suspended. The Supreme Court said that the law could not have been applied in the case as the consensual sex act did not occur at a military facility. The view that sexual activity between people of the same sex as a source of humiliation and disgust for objective and regular people goes against a decent moral sense, the law said. In a press release, the court said the decision was important as the declaration that consensual sexual activity among military service members could no longer be considered as punishable in and of itself. According to Amnesty International, South Korea has in the recent past charged more than 20 gay soldiers under a military sodomy law for consensual sex. This decision therefore is groundbreaking. Do they get thrown out of the service too? No, I don't think so. Homosexuality is legal in South Korea, but there are no laws to protect LGBTQI people from discrimination or hate crimes. South Korea does not recognize same sex marriages and in January 2022, a court dismissed a petition filed by a gay couple for their relationship to be recognized. Still, good news from South Korea. Now, may I go to Saudi Arabia? Is it a long one? It's of interest. Dr. Strange in the multiverse of madness. You may wonder what that is. It's a movie.  I have that on my list of things here. You want to cover it? No, go ahead. Dr. Strange in the multiverse of madness won't be playing in Saudi Arabia or several other Arab countries due to the inclusion of a gay character. I just have it listed as interesting movies. Well, I can tell you a chapter and verse about the plot, but Saudi Arabian censors did not issue a permit to release the film in the kingdom since the changes they requested were not approved by Disney according to a source. Good for Disney. It stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the titular character and features a new hero, America Chavez, played by the babysitter's club, Sochil Gomez. Her character in the movie is reportedly gay, true to how she is portrayed in Marvel Comics. The Doctor Strange sequel, which will be released in the US on May 6th, was initially slated for release in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries on May 5th. But in the region movies concerning or containing sex homosexuality and religious issues are routinely cut to comply with censorship rules. In this case, Disney was either unwilling or unable to make the edits requested by the censors. Censorship in Saudi Arabia has recently also kept local audiences from watching Marvel's Eternals after Disney refused to make edits that included the pictures Same Sex Kiss and West Side Story because it features a transgender character. But this is not a problem that's specific to Saudi Arabia. Advanced ticket sales of Doctor Strange sequel are not available in Saudi, Kuwait and Qatar. They're on sale in the United Arab Emirates, indicating that the film will be released there since censorship in the Emirates has recently become less restrictive. Now I have a little paragraph of plot summary, but I guess I'll have to forego it. Keith. And talking about your plot summaries. On our next show, I will be talking about what our Vermont legislature did and did not do, because as was announced within the last 24 hours, they will not be adjourning this week. They're hoping to adjourn next week. And I'll also be talking about some of the recent US Supreme Court decisions and waiting may be advantageous because there are several other cases for whom arguments have already been presented and they're waiting for the ruling. So we may have more to talk about. But looking at fun stuff because we need some fun stuff. The Vermont Book Awards are back. And we want to acknowledge that the person who was granted the award for creative nonfiction was Allison Bechdel. Oh, the secret to superhuman strength. And there was a festival at the Vermont College for Fine Arts presenting the award. It's election year. Brenda Churchill, I announced on our last show had formally announced for the Franklin six seat. Well, Brenda's announcement came on the same day that we learned of Fern Feathers killing. So there will be another more formal announcement forthcoming. However, there is a website of people are interested in the candidacy. Didn't they have some function? No, no, no, it's coming up. It's going to be at one of the town halls up in her district. Yeah, but I saw a picture of Brenda at the Rusty. What is that place on something? Nail. Nails in Montpelier? Yeah. No, that was a party fundraiser. It wasn't specifically for Brenda. But Brenda is not the only out candidate that's announced. Wichee R2 has announced that he is running for the Wyndham County Senate seat being vacated by Becca Ballant. Who? Wichee R2. Wichee R2 and his husband are organic farmers committed to LGBTQ plus BIPOC community. People may know Wichee from the summit that out in the open has sponsored. They have been very active in the community in the Brattleboro area. Wichee is the person who did all of the work on the LGBTQ plus healthcare initiatives at Brattleboro Hospital and Grace Cottage Hospital that got the attention and recognition from the Human Rights Campaign as one of the best in the country. Great. So that's good news, I guess. Yeah, oh no, that's excellent news. But going on from that, it's Haydn in our backyard. Oh yeah. At the Pride Center in Burlington, there was an act of vandalism where during the night someone approached the building and through two concrete projectiles through the door and shattered it. And the community around them has rallied for them. And there has already been an anonymous donor who has said, I'm giving you the money to repair the door. You shouldn't have to endure this. And this was the statement from Mike Bensel, the executive director. I just want to recognize that the community, the LGBTQ plus is resilient and we are strong and our response to this type of violence is to respond with love and beauty. And there were various entities who have done fundraising special efforts to support the Pride Center. One is the Fox Market in East Montpellier. The other is the Poppy Cafe and Market, which is on Oak Street in Burlington, and the Red Wagon plants in Heinsberg. And I mentioned them because even though their immediate fundraising may have ended, these are businesses that were supportive. We should in turn support them. But Burlington wasn't alone. Northern Vermont University in Lindenville.  And over the weekend, the flagpole was broken, vandalized, and the flag was stolen. And this was the response from Alexa Morrigan, who is their coordinator for their inclusion club. It's everywhere. My response to the school is that we're not going away. And my response to the state is, we're not going away. We're here to stay. So, get ready. May I say something? I read a coverage of all of the stuff in Vice News, and they attributed this uptick in Vermont to Laura Ingraham's about the gender workshop.  Laura Ingraham took the online training and edited it and threw it out on a national. And then the chair of the GOP here in Vermont used it for their own fundraising efforts. It exceeded what he could control. He didn't know how to pull it back. And I'm going to look really quickly in New Hampshire. And this is a piece of legislation that people have missed. House Bill 1431. This is parental rights. And get ready to the language. And it is about preserving a parent's rights. And the way it's drafted is that they find it is the fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing education and care of their minor children. So that's like, okay, so now you can be in books because it's parental, right? Well, no, I want you to listen to the language. No, no, no, no, no. If you were a parent, oh, you're saying that I should have something to say about my child. Well, of course I'm going to support it. So the language is broad enough that it's like, oh, well, of course. But then it starts talking about a school or the state cannot do anything to infringe upon your rights. And they start putting in modifying language and I have a copy of the actual bill. And this is where it really started getting rocky is if my child goes in and says something to the faculty that is an indicator of a change in mental health or that they are to notify the parents immediately. So I go into school and reveal sexual orientation or gender identity to who I think is the support of faculty. They in turn have to call my parent. They don't have the right to hold it confidential. And that's where it's the back door. Let's trick people into voting for this.  So getting ready because there are 12 other states actively considering this. And this just passed in New Hampshire. It passed in the House on a 181 to 157 vote. It passed in the Senate on a 13 to 11 vote. Every sponsor was a Republican. Everyone who voted in favor of the bill was a Republican. Everyone who voted against it was a Democrat with the exception of one Republican.  Well no the Centers for Disease Control is saying that there is a major outbreak. Not just in Florida. Well in and the reason I'm saying it here is this is vacation time. It was spring break. We had people in Florida. This is about getting vaccinated for meningitis for menococcal meningitis. Which can have devastating impact. So if you are a man who has sex with men who has either vacationed recently in Florida. Or it's going you are have close contact with someone who has be looking for symptoms of fever, headaches, stiff neck, nausea, vomiting. And get health care immediately if you are thinking of vacationing in Florida in the near future. Please get vaccinated before you go. Okay. And they have no idea why that kind of started in Florida. Oh Florida's I mean anytime there are large groups of people particularly students on spring break. I mean that's a prime opportunity. Opportunity. Okay well we have Ellen Gigenaris who believe it or not 25 years ago she came out on her sitcom called Ellen remember that. It was very groundbreaking. She was Ellen Morgan. She won the toaster oven. And yes. And when she came out people warned her of course that she would ruin her career. She said that she didn't really have a job or much to do for three years after that. But all she has to say is look at me now. So. And rights of nature law clinic faces transphobia allegations. The law clinic spearheaded campaigns to establish legal rights for lakes and rivers. Last summer seven or 15 staffers and contract attorneys left saying that the organization resisted efforts to make the workplace more inclusive including LGBTQ people. Hmm. So I guess you can be trying to. Help you. Save trees but. Apple is quietly mobilizing its vast resources to lobby against anti LGBTQ legislature across the country. Oh good because we have all these Apple products. And unusual push by one of the world's most valuable companies into a consequential political debate.   Good. Good news. We have a good product. Director Katelyn says she was opened up to horror by Kerry, which was the movie if you remember from Stephen King novel. The body horror in the shower. The insecurity and rage. This is what she said. I felt so connected to her. I never forgot the palpitations in my chest. It was an emotional catharsis. That's when I realized that horror could be a healthy way to face my darkness. She began doing films after the 1916 election in October. 1916. No. 2016. Sorry. Okay. Election in October. LGBTQ horror fans. Fans include Sovam, Alone With You, Bad Girls, and Brain Dead at the Cinema Salon this year. There will be virtual programs streaming. The festival is in the first week of October. So there's that. I'm going to use my parental rights on what she's viewing. I can't wait. She'll be watching them alone. University of South Carolina settles lawsuit involving 80 men who accused a doctor of sexual misconduct. Former students, many gay accused Dr. Dennis Kelly of misconduct. Terms of the central settlement that they made have not been disclosed. Oh, I know. Activists file a complaint in Florida over the Bible being to walk. Chas Sanchez is using Florida GOP Stop Woke Act to prove the Bible's inclusion of topics like racism, sexism, and homophobia makes it inappropriate for the classroom. And then there's one of the movies after the, you know, we're talking about, um, so there's 17 films and TV shows which begin in May. I picked a few that I liked, but if you, you can find them online. And some of them are the staircase based on a true story about the death of Kathleen Peterson, Star Trek Strange New Worlds. These are LGBT films? Yes. Yes, that's why I would be reporting them. Oh, okay. Or they've got characters that would be of interest to us. Yes. I see. Anna's in love. A woman falls in love with her lover's partner. That should be pretty interesting. Lover is a man in, you know, anyway. And Dr. Strange. Oh. The Marvel gets gayer. Uh-huh. So there. I'd love to just read the plot summary of that. Well, you know. Well, Spider-Man. Kansas anti-transbill officially did. So we have that. Okay. So, Ian, I think we can move on to you now. I thought you'd be particularly interested. I am particularly interested. In this Spider-Man connection. I am. I'm going to watch it. All right. Uh, let's go to bad news from Africa.  I have a picture before you now. Sheila, uh, Tom, uh, Hiambo, LaMumba, 25. She was, they were found in their home by colleagues after they didn't show up for work. LGBTQ rights in Kenya, groups in Kenya are demanding justice over the killing of this non-binary lesbian. We're activists have said they were found murdered in their home after being attacked and raped by a group of men. The killing happened, uh, about three hours north of the country's capital. According to an autopsy report, a group of men broke into her house and raped them before killing them. Their body was discovered, um, days after their death by colleagues, uh, at the resort where they worked after they failed to show up for a couple of days. On social media, many have used, um, a hashtag to call for authorities to appropriately investigate the death and find those responsible. Um, a memorial will occur on, um, April 30th. It bears mentioning that unfortunately these are not isolated incidences and are part of a pattern of attacks and violence against LGBTQ plus persons in the country. Um, the group wrote on Twitter offering resources, uh, this is a rights group, to queer Kenyans. Last year, um, these, these hashtags were trending after the murders of a trans woman and activist Erika Chandra and LGBTQ plus activist, Hoash Masoti, the BBC reports.   It carries a punishment of up to 14 years in prison if violated. While the law specific to same sex sexual relations between men, Kenyan activists still say it affects lesbians by trans and non-binary people and creates an environment where anti-LGBTQ plus attitudes thrive. So that's terrible news. Um, let's go to Russia. No. We're meta. No, we're not going to Russia. Yeah. Um, well, I have to say there are two stories from Russia. Um, neither of them particularly affirming. Uh, Russia finds meta, which is, uh, formerly Facebook platform over quote LGBTQ plus propaganda. The Russian court on Tuesday find meta platforms, four million rubles for failing to delete posts that contain what it calls LGBTQ plus propaganda in 2013. Uh, a 2013 Russian law, decried by Western countries as state enforced bigotry bans the promotion of non-traditional sexual relations to minors. Meta did not immediately respond. In further acts of skelduggery, a Russian court has dissolved an LGBTQ rights group. It's called Sphere. I've mentioned it before on the show. It provided legal psychological assistance across the country. Last week, a district court in St. Petersburg ordered that the charitable foundation be liquidated. In February, the Russian justice ministry filed a lawsuit trying to liquidate it. More on. Right. Uh, it argued that the group activities were in contrary to traditional values. On April 21st, a judge ruled in favor of the ministry's argument that it ran country to contrary to the Russian state policy to preserve, expand and develop the country's human capital. The ministry also accused it of spreading LGBTQ views and working with people under the age of 18. And to act in violation of the country's gay propaganda law. This group was founded in 2011 by Russian LGBTQ rights activist Igor Kuchetov. And in 2016, authorities designated the Sphere Foundation a foreign agent and from there on a decline occurred. Upon learning of the ruling, the founder said, no, I am not crying or crying or crying. I'm proud of the work done by the foundation in 11 years. It should be clear that the ministry and the court made this decision and it is not on legal but on an ideological basis. No Russian law prohibits the activity of organizations that do not correspond with any values. There is simply no such basis in the law for liquidation of NGOs. In this sense, the decision of the court is iconic. Mandatory state ideology has returned and is now official. And then he added the work continues, their hands are dirty but too short to ban us. So Sphere released a longer statement and in more dirty deeds, the Russian ministry canceled the registration of Human Rights Watch along with Amnesty International and 13 other offices of foreign non-governmental organizations and foundations. Human Rights Watch had maintained an office in Russia for 30 years. The action was announced just days after the appeals court upheld the liquidation of another Russian human rights giant memorial. Human Rights Watch has been working on in Russia since the Soviet era and we will continue to do so, the executive director said. This new iron curtain will not stop our ongoing efforts to defend the rights of all Russians and to protect civilians in Ukraine. So they're going to fight despite this awful crackdown. Makes news from Hungary, which is kind of trying to borrow the playbook from Russia. Hungarian groups, however, are fighting the fines that groups have received for supporting LGBTQ rights. I mentioned the election and how voters were counseled to sabotage the ballot. And last week Hungary's Supreme Court rejected, this is really mixed news though, an attempt to levy punitive fines on 16 civil society organizations for opposing the referendum. Nevertheless, the court upheld fines against two groups setting a dangerous precedent for curtailing civil society advocacy. The National Election Committee subsequently fined the groups for encouraging invalid votes, arguing that they abused the electoral process. Hungary's Supreme Court, the Curia, rejected that argument in three of the five cases, finding that the voters had the right to cast an invalid vote and that organizations had not limited voters autonomy to make their choice. In two other cases, however, another curia council upheld the fines against Hatter, a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights group, and Amnesty International Hungary. So they're going after Amnesty International. Both groups have said they plan to appeal the decision to Hungary's constitutional court and I hope they succeed. Do you have a clip because we're getting close to the end of your time? Well, I have a couple stories. Well, I don't know that we have time for a couple more stories. Well, let's look at a picture now of Aidan Moffat and Michael Snee on the left. They are two gay men who were murdered in Ireland, pillars of the community. They weren't activists and they were murdered by Yusef Pallani, a 22-year-old man from Sligowurch is where this all occurred. He was charged with the murders of both men and was remanded to custody and it's very creepy because it's related to Grinder. And this guy had a list and these two were the first two people on it. Not only were they murdered, they were mutilated. So now let me go to my clip. Traveling through generations. Petit Maman. Petit Maman by lesbian director Salim Shama begins a nursing home with a scene bringing together three generations. Elderly women, mothers and their daughters. Nellie goes from room to room reading elderly women. Her mother Marion is seeing her own mother in the final days of her life. After the death of Nellie's grandmother, her family temporarily relocates to her house in order to empty it out. While her mother and father are busy, Nellie plays in the woods. She comes across another young girl building a tree fort. This girl turns out to be Marion, back when she was the same age as Nellie, Marion as Nellie's mother. The two bond immediately but the time in which they can spend together is limited. I have another paragraph I'd love to show you about. Well, look, we only have five minutes left. Alright, let's look at a clip of Petit Maman. I've never seen you before. I didn't tell you how I liked you. Nellie, I'm with my grandmother. She liked me last week. I like to make some chocolate and eat them. I found the place of Nellie's mother. We never talked when you were children. You're exaggerating, you always tell me. Yes, but it's just a little story. I have a secret. I'm your child. You come from the future. I agree with you on why I'm in Nellie. When? I don't even know when to invite her. It's just a little secret. I want to see that. What is it on? Okay, where can you see it? Well, it's premiering in French with English subtitles. It opens on April 22nd at Angelica Film Center and Film at Lincoln Center. Sounds good. Yeah, so it'll appear in general circulation pretty soon. Eventually. One more last story. It's involving a picture. This is Stephen Carter and Eric Bourne. They're the first same-sex marriage in UK's Antarctic territory. Yes. They got married on board the ship RRS or David Attenborough. It's the first same-sex wedding to take place on British Antarctic territory. And they're very excited. The captain decided 30 crew members attended a big celebration in Spain where one of them lives at a later date. Okay, but what was truly newsworthy about this is when this marriage occurred and Antarctica, we now have had a same-sex marriage in every country. A same-sex marriage in every continent in the world. Well, three cheers. Yay! That's positive. Yeah, it's very positive. Thank you. My great pleasure. Keith. So, I said you should know the answer to this. This was the first openly LGBTQ plus Asian Pacific Islander elected to the Congress. And I say that because every maze since this show has been on air, the answer has been Mark Takano, who is from California's 41st Congressional District. He is not only the first, he is the only openly LGBTQ plus Asian Pacific Islander elected to the U.S. Congress. And a piece of Mark's personal history is he is of Japanese descent and his family was interned during World War II in the desert for being Japanese. So, in addition to his identity as part of the LGBTQ plus community, he brings that personal family history with him. And I just wanted to say in the last few minutes that we have here is the abortion and the letter that was leaked that we really need to be watching this because if this goes over, lots of other things can go over too like gay marriage and other things. So we really need to be paying attention. And so now it's more important than ever to resist.


We are from Goldenproject, from Warsaw in Poland. Today we're going to entertain you by building and running some software on WebAssembly and on the golden infrastructure. Can I have a picture of Hans in the room? I mean, we have guests here. How many of you are either current or former software developers, like coders? Hey, this workshop is for you guys. Do you remember how you all started? Do you remember how you started coding? How you felt compelled and excited to touch the keyboard to write a computer program? I remember when I started, I was 8 by then. And I wanted to write a computer game on my 8-bit Commodore. So I went to wait. I picked a book on basic and I just started writing simple if-then statements. And I ended up with a text-based computer game. It worked and I felt the thrill for the first time. Years later I picked up C-language, which felt so professional to me. And I had to learn new syntax with the braces and curly brackets. And it had a compiler and I could compile the exifile. That was so exciting. And every time, years later, when I was speaking all the other languages I was learning, I felt the same thrill. I'm almost 40 now and I started learning Rust language last year. And I again felt the same excitement with the new syntax and new tool sets being able to build something that actually works. I'm saying all this because we hope to be able to replace some of this excitement with you guys here, playing with WebAssembly and Golem. So WebAssembly. WebAssembly, essentially, is assembly language for the web. That's our plot. But seriously, it is a programming platform, like the native programming platform for the web. That's how it's sold, how it's hosted. It's both with new native performance. It comes with a binary format to distribute your software. It can be compiled from any language. That's the concept of it. Today we're going to be showing Rust language. And it's both on the best support for WebAssembly compilation. But you're able to compile from C, C++, from Go, and other languages as well.  It is portable, so multiple platforms. It comes with a sandboxing model, which is very similar to JavaScript. And funnily enough, it's also very similar to JavaScript in other aspects. I mean, just like JavaScript broke out of the web browsers. I mean, look what happened with node.js. In the same way, WebAssembly doesn't need to be run in the browser. It can be run on a proper server-side backend manner.  And on GoLib itself. GoLib is a concept. It's a concept of a distributed decentralized marketplace for computing power. So essentially, you're able to share your computing power with others on your GoLib network. What's important and convenient for us here is that since last release, it supports the WebAssembly running. We call it the GWASM model. And what's also convenient for us today is that GoLib has a sort of lightweight version, which is called GoLib Unlimited, which is rid of the economy layer. And it's meant for the trusted environments, such as the one you'll be seeing here today. And it also supports the GWASM modules. So that's what we're going to play with today. But before we begin, let's set ourselves in the mood. Can we just dim the lights a little bit, please? So imagine we are not in 2019. We are here in Osaka in 2077. And we are at war. We are the crypto resistance, depending on the free world from the oppression of the corrupt, crooked corporate syndicates. To exchange ideas, we celebrate our annual secret conference of the society's greatest visioners and thinkers. And through gathering of free minds and free wills, such as this, is an obvious threat to the syndicates. We've learned that our conference has been compromised, and we are likely to become a target for attack. We expect long-range cruising missiles to be launched from the private islands in the Pacific Ocean. But we are not defenseless. Our wits, our technology, are the ultimate defense. Join us today. Join the network. Leverage the computing power so that together we can outsmart the enemy and make a step towards a more balanced civilization. Who's with us today? Who's joining us today? Those of you who want to join the workshop, like the hands-on building workshop, welcome to join the network that we've set up for you. We have prepared a safe training boot camp environment. We have a local network where there's a Wi-Fi, there's LAN tables. LANs are going to be more stable than the Wi-Fi. Join the network. Open the URL, which is there, and it takes you to the landing page of the workshop. By the way, the landing page is also available online, on the internet, so you're happy to repeat those exercises with all the materials in your home time. Those of you who want, we have pen drives here with all the content, all the binaries, so we're going to grab this and maybe quicker to download to install the setup. So the plan for today is, we will set up the golden certificate cluster. So we have a golden hub prepared for you, and you will be able to connect to the app so that you can participate in the suit of computation on WebAssembly. Those of you who don't want to take a coding session are happy to sit back and relax, but you can compile a sort of round-deck golden provider part to join the network so that your PC is actually posting the computation. Those of you who want to take part, please download the Docker image, and that contains the full development environment that is required for the session today. That session will be played by my colleague here on the screen, so you're happy to follow. If you are having trouble connecting, if you're having trouble running the exercises, just raise your hand, at least someone from the staff will try to help you. I think we're all set for the GU cluster. I have a colleague here who will take us to the process. What's up? I don't mind if I sit down. I didn't sleep last night. I bet all of you have problems as well. It's very creepy. As it was shown on the screen, for those of you who are calling us, we have prepared a website for you guys. It's www.devcom.com.net and you will find pretty much everything that we're going to cover today here. Sorry, I'm going to find everything that we're going to talk about here and there today. That includes the tutorial. Now, the tutorial has got quite a bit of text, so you might not want to follow it now, but feel free to do this. We play it ourselves on phone. Hopefully, you guys are going to have fun with it. Now, for today's session, I advise you to do the work of teaching. It's about copying paste instructions, essentially, so if you're ever lost, just copy and paste, then you should be back on track. First and foremost, for those of you who are trying to join us, the instruction is in showing the tutorial. Great. So, where do we start? So, in the tutorial, section number one is going to talk to her. So, have you guys actually done it? Yes. Have you tried doing it? Oh, yes. Right, okay. So, if you go to our web page www.devcom.net and then forward slash tutorial, please follow, so basically, for your posts, the mark or the limits, get yourself the installation package and run it if you can. For those of you who put the tablets, you can try it, but for those of you who have Windows services, actually might not. Okay, does it make sense? Cool. So, what's going to happen then? You should see the train. I've got a mark here, you see on the screen. I'm looking at the figure. It should be in the top right corner, for Gene, I can do that, right? Then, if you take the figure, you want to connect with AutoStolen and give it, you can give a sample to access, it doesn't really matter around. You're not going to be running anything out of here. Okay. And as you will be connecting here, you're going to see you guys here and that's, if you go to hub, with a port number of 61, 61, 622, and a 4 slash app, 4 slash index, HTML, HTML, you're joining. Could you make the photo of the figure? Yeah, I can. Apple plus? Yeah. Thank you. Okay, so these are all the seats in Macs. Not actually both. I haven't seen Windows here. So Linux is in Macs. We're going to connect the cluster here locally. This is everything right here on the local network. And we're going to use this cluster to actually upload the picture later on. And it's very easy to set up. We've got the installers, as I mentioned, on the tutorial web page. So you can actually, if you fancy, you can actually do yourself later on as well. You can actually have your own cluster too. To do some fancy stuff that we didn't mention before. What is probably also important is that the packages, based on packages that have been prepared, they do contain the awesome runtime. So they do contain the WebAssembly so the backend, and we will run the WebAssembly modules that we will build on those hosts, on those nodes. So essentially what we're presenting is we'll present the running of our software or the software that we will build on the distributed network somewhere on your PC. Anyone? Success in connecting? Excellent. Anyone else? Hey, do you see yourself out there? Yeah, I was trying to... It seems... Does anybody know how this... I'm trying to... I'm trying to... I'm trying to... I'm trying to... Is it... Are you on the cable or the Wi-Fi? Oh, the Wi-Fi. They've got like 15 different networks here and they open a few more shutters. Wi-Fi? It's bad, so if you can grab a cable, just grab a cable. Does anybody else need help? Sign the tube provider? I'm trying to talk about it. Oh, sorry. Yeah, okay, guys. Oh, yeah, there is one window. Hey, Mark Rock. Who's Mark Rock? Yeah, we actually didn't think it's going to work on windows, so that's good. Well, it hasn't worked yet. Oh, yeah, come on. I'll do the change on... Oh, you can't. We messed with it, so... I think the note name is actually what you have... Yeah, basically... I mean, you can try changing it now if you do it and you might break it. Thank you. Ah, okay.  Oh, then... No, but you can take your ID and follow the ID.  Yeah? Okay, ready to do some building? Ready to do some building, or... So, any sheet? We're going to start with A1. More. Make it larger. Hopefully you guys got the document pulled. I think you can get it off the USB drive. The USB drive. Yes? The comment for roping from the USB stick is like on the whiteboard. Okay, cool. Dr. Long minus E, which is minus I. Okay, so... I assume that you already got the marker. If you don't, please do it now. Now, we're going to create... I already did it, so... I'm not going to go through those then, but being like a Ducky workspace, we're going to use it to actually map a folder of the docker, as we can actually ground it. So, this is what we're going to have. We actually pretty much don't have anything on the docker except for the W. So, you can't read it very much there.  It takes a long time, especially if you don't have a docker. It's good that you can get it. It's really, really good. So, and then, you know, you can just map the host folder to the one and docker. Okay? So, please do that. Now, I'm going to skip this, because I've already done it, and instead, I'm going to very briefly show you what did not... What did you want? What did you want to run there? We call it what you want to run there. It's basically our punch name for an ABA. So, you can actually write straightforward programs that basically come forward to not reduce paramedics, actually, to offload them on Golem. And it's not only Golem unlimited, but also Golem itself. We're actually, we're almost there to be able to actually run everything in your tutorial in Golem. So, we're almost there. So, the API is very simple. We'll see how it works. And that's it. So, the merge, exec and merge is like map to use. So, I'm sure everybody knows this. So, with split, you basically split the main into a set of tasks that you want to distribute over our network. That map takes... exec takes tasks, does some computation on it, and then spits out the task result and get anything that you want. And then merge, collect all them and it's very simple. I'm pretty sure everybody's done it before. This is the simplest we can come up with. So, let me show you how it works. I'm going to prove to you that it is actually simple. Now, please tell me that you can see this. Or is it too small? It's bigger. It's better. I can keep going. Is that okay? I mean, if I keep going, it's good. Okay, go. So, when you open Docker, you're going to add in the LLGWAS brother audio lock. Oh, by the way, we're a Rust fanatics and we really encourage you to use Rust as a console. No physics is actually really cool. In my... In my humble case, I used to go a lot with Rust. This is so much easier. The examples are mostly in Rust but there is a simple example as well for the CD. Yeah, do that stuff. So, we've got them free install, free Docker. We even have nano. Can you use it? I mean, I'll throw it to my page. So, let's open it up. Now, I've got some stuff free in the cart here. So, this is basically the stuff that you need to have but it doesn't change from I use this in this case, okay? So, we have split tags that I can merge, as I said. Now, I've got some unfinished types here to make it more conformant to the presentation that I showed you. Now, we've also got the dispatcher run and this is essentially the glue that makes everything work. If you want to go in the limited column, I'm not going to go into details about what split context is on RSR but if you have any questions about this, you can answer them afterwards and you can find more about it in the tutorial or in our GitHub. So, first of all, the problem we want to present to you like very simple, right? It's essentially speaking of the simple thing. So, we have an array of 100 integers and we want to do a bunch of them.  So, we're going to divide it into 10 arrays, 10 integers each and then we're going to send each chunk to one of your machines. You guys send the sum for us. You guys are going to send us the sum of 5 and then we're going to put it back together and it's great because it's so simple you can actually do this one machine and put it right in the zone. So, a sonic test, if you will. So, an array of integers takes you for bits on the side. It seems as simple as it goes. And the result, for each task, is going to be one number, right? Because after the sum, it's just one number. So, in split, let's first say so that's going to be the size of the chunk and we're going to make it 10, we have 100 integers. So, a size chunk of 10 for example, 10 arrays. It's perfect. Now, that's going to be the input array. So, this is where we're going to split. Now, if you have any questions about rust you can also ask hopefully staff and the others will be able to help you out if you get lost here. So, I'm just going to create a vector of 100 integers assigned. The equal sign is basically you've got an inclusive range and rust output is going to be our tasks so that's going to be... Now, I know this looks awful actually. We need the one element sample and that's because of rust. I mean, I know not everything is great but, you know, technicality I think it's a small fraction of great but honestly, no. It's not that bad. So, now for chunk and arrays of chunks and this is our sum. If I look at this, right? I mean, this is almost everything. And the task is going to be a task sorry, a task and that's essentially magic. Slice the vector, right? From something that's borrowed old and we're going to put it in our container here. Now, just to prove to you that it works I'm going to print it out for you as well as we compile it, it should be visible and that's us, right? I'm not going to fill in exactly here but I need to put something there and show it to you. I want to show you first that it works so let me quickly re-compile them for you I've got the warnings we're going to get rid of them as we go on. Sorry, what's the thing with this one element samples? That's a very good question can we carry it afterwards? It's a bit of a difficulty I'll be happy to show it to you we use a script in for Boston, we're going to be using one for the moment because it's a very robust I mean, I know it's craft, but that's the only thing we can do to do it. So very robust in here we set up all the repos so that you can do it as is possible but it works and we're going to get to it as soon so it's going to be here I've got it right so it's hello so G was rather just to show you some my local times G was rather minus B to show you what was going on target so it was I guess running that's way too much so you can see that we've got 10 arrays going back in let's fill it in the exit, that's very simple we just want one number out and that's essentially speaking bugging, let's print it out so that's summing up every separate number and then we're going to get it this array of powerful sums and do the final sum well it's very a simplistic problem you can clarify the addition of it it does work trust me not yet I know we're going to get there I know you know this stuff but you know right so for the merge so we take the results let me call it given or actually know the final sum 4 so let's take the results now you can notice probably you get a factor of of tuples now that's because if you want to do some more fancy stuff like I don't understand the deviation however you can actually use the input the original input as well to do something more turn it turn it and then just sum it up now and this is what and as I said that's a perfect example because we can verify ourselves so we've got the final sum it's actually something small problem that there you go, okay so it works that's a sanity check that actually works it's important to do it on the class itself we can do that so in Docker we've got everything we can find for you so you can actually go back in here this morning outside but everything should be there anyway so if you do that here you're going to see a lot of stuff I'll show you that on the paper you can see that it works let's go to something more interesting and I've got the bundle, right? I mean if you don't have black fractals you might as well do it now so fractals we can see ourselves simple fractals they actually take quite a lot of time to render in a pretty big so we thought hey that's a perfect example for example to show you here this is exactly what we're going to do if you go on to main you can see that we have the dispatcher here as well if you go into the Mandelbrot module you're going to see that there is merge there is exec and there is some split I'm not going to go into the code it's just too long but if you want if you've got an idea of how to do that comment to it for you so just go ahead and in your spare time so with mine is me you guys are actually going to help us so let's make it a challenge like 10,000 by 10,000 pixels and make it I don't know okay so stop this happening go away oh that's fancy this is new I didn't expect that in the session I don't know I don't know I'm going to get it back here we go so you can see that we're creating the sandbox so this is recording the machine this is mine sorry I'm actually using it something diluted oh we've got the output perfect okay guys we can go through them you can find something interesting I don't know what I is I'm going to do it myself so we do we suggest that you get a look we'll do the floor one like with all the floors just dig deeper dig deeper and the actual description will show up sometime today it's not up yet we didn't want everyone to do it and crack it just for the workshop let's do it after and you will need to team up like teams to do it but I need to interrupt you guys because it was fun right I just got the news well it was fun for us but that's still me that's still you why are you still here because I'm cool obviously yeah yes I just got the news from headquarters we are under attack that missiles are flying they are on their way but as I said we are not without they can we managed to deploy a mesh of sensors in the pacific ocean in the water itself which are capable of tracking tribal objects we are gathering data as we speak we are collecting data and our analysts are preparing a predictive algorithm to actually detect the trajectories and the impact date and time of those projectiles but we need your help okay we need your help to run the reputation only as I said together we can track this we can compute this and we are literally waiting for the package to arrive and be available are you ready? yes can you actually run it? yes I can but there isn't enough of you there's too few of you only few of you managed to connect so we need to do something about it and we decided to use our so called decoy nodes we have a number of undercover machines deployed on the syndicates commercial belt and we used them to feed misinformation to syndicates analytics for example in Cambridge and that was their only purpose until today today we are going to use them to save ourselves we are going to use them to compute the trajectories of the nest cells but some of you may notice that they aren't trusted has anyone of you heard the term HE for those of you who haven't it is a concept that allows computing on encrypted data so in a sense we want to encrypt the data from the sensors send them to the nodes both trusted and untrusted so your nodes will also be computing the encrypted data to get the encrypted results and fetch them back and decrypt them on our site so that our computation is safe so our analytics has prepared the prediction of the algorithm using FEG and that's what we are going to be running today okay so just to clarify we are not making any claims as I was going to say from the very as in like if you break these nodes you know you know how it is right so generating some points now we are going to define so those are the points that came from the headquarters right quite a bit of noise we are going to try and regress so very simple problem we are going to do it using fully homomorphic encryption so we are actually going to encrypt it and then we are going to run it so you are actually going to do stuff we are going to try and regress well like FEG in this case doesn't explore this new type of memory full secrecy doesn't come without a cost so we already got it so let's actually run that on your machines so this is an example app called GUDOT it's just on your USB drives you can play with it as well so all the code is there you can have a look the fully homomorphic encryption library is called GUORF it's on our github account as well so have a look play with it again that's very important right so why is everything running from there basically Ronald is going to run it for us and let's do back and to you let's say 40 ok the stuff is happening and the browser now on the keyboard is actually more workable ok ok so we got the results back you can see the fitter model here so the Ronald was actually doing a lot of stuff he was actually encrypting the stuff then I took the keys randomly then it was sending encrypted code and you guys you were doing computation and it was coming back to us and then we put the model and then we couldn't destroy the missile and all that so we have it so if you are going to die because of me you can sue me later so again so those are the points that we can't if you guys see this I'm going to zoom in a bit more what does it show us I mean it just regrets a lot of the points so we have time here no we are past the time so we are going to die that's ok just send it to the headquarters we might right just send it because we have a live view just send it yeah we're dead anyway we've got that yet I mean we got the points now ah there we go should what are you waiting for I will ask them with the tower port hey we managed to survive thanks to you right so that's it we managed to save the crypto resistance overalls thank you for that thank you for participating in our workshop as I said you can do all those things offline using the material you have seen the setup of the golden unlimited cluster which was really quick I mean most of you were new to it you have seen software built and run on web assembly and on the golden infrastructure you've seen us running FHE experimental simple case but it is actually working and you can see yourself on web assembly again and on golden you have managed to save the free world you're off you're off with the package of content packages for example you're off with the Easter egg for you to pick up and try to spread the word and bring the others speak at the golden staff a great demo thank you guys


Ukraine conflict frontlines deadlocked. German Defence Minister. Both Russia and Ukraine now find themselves unable to make any progress on the battlefield, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius told the tabloid, Pistorius has insisted on boosting his country's weapons production and called on other European countries to do more as well. The Ukrainian government has consistently criticised its foreign backers for not supplying its forces with enough military hardware and munitions, arguing that the lack of weapons was the primary reason for its difficulties on the battlefield. Germany is already reaching its limits regarding military aid for Ukraine and that its production capabilities are not keeping up with demand, the Minister said. However, he argued that the frontline situation was not as bad for Kiev as has been reported telling Bill that, in fact, the situation is deadlocked. There are no gains in territory on either side. President Vladimir Putin recently declared that Russian forces currently have the initiative. He described Kiev's counter-offensive as a complete failure, achieving no notable territorial gains while costing a tremendous amount of personnel and equipment. Meanwhile, Kiev has continued to criticise the West for failing to supply and produce enough munitions for its forces.
