So, we've talked about how the far right has terrorized teachers who were supposedly indoctrinating young people into the LGBTQ plus lifestyle as if that's a thing that you can actually do. But now they've switched their targets and they're focusing on doctors, specifically pediatricians at children's hospitals. If they provide medically necessary gender for men care to trans youth and what they've done is incite harassment against doctors and staffers at several hospitals. And it's gotten so out of control that now someone could actually get hurt. Somebody might actually take action and hurt one of these doctors because of the hate that the far right has incited. So the biggest offender predictably is the hate account on Twitter known as Libs of Tiktok. So over the course of the last week, they've made or shared 14 posts fear mongering about the gender for men care that Boston Children's Hospital provides to their trans patients. Now, this predictably sparked harassment and death threats towards the staff. And knowing that this was the effect, what did Libs of Tiktok do? Well, they continue to do exactly the same thing. Fear mongering about the gender for men care offered this time at other hospitals such as the Phoenix Children's Hospital. But Libs of Tiktok was not alone because Matt Walsh, a self-proclaimed theocratic fascist decided to join in and he incited harassment against specifically the Boston Children's Hospital.  So they juxtapose what he says about the Boston Children's Hospital with a news report from just a couple of days later. Wash the way that his words incited harassment against this hospital. Today at the Matt Walsh show, children's hospitals around the country are butchering, mutilating and sterilizing their young patients. So according to Boston Children's Hospital, literally every toddler who has ever been born or will ever be born is trans. Now, if it seems like they're casting the widest imaginable net in order to catch the most children they can and put them all in a path to sterilization and butchery before they can even talk. Well, that's because that's exactly what these monsters are doing. And they've done it up until this moment without much resistance from the public. But that has to end. We have to stop making it so easy on them. And that's why I'm in the very early stages of trying to organize a national coordinated effort to fight back against this evil. Now, it's really just a matter of where do we begin? Maybe we begin at Boston Children's Hospital. Boston Children's Hospital says its staff is being threatened and harassed now after far-right activists on social media posted misinformation claiming they performed gender-affirming hysterectomy procedures on young girls. The hospital says it's not true. They do not perform those procedures for anyone under the age of 18. Boston Children's Hospital says it is proud, though, to be home to the first pediatric and adolescent transgender health program in the United States. The hospital, though, now is working with law enforcement to try to better protect its staff in the face of these lies. That, my friends, is what we call stochastic terrorism. His words had a direct impact on that news story. And let's look specifically at what he said. Quote, we have to stop making it so easy on them. What do you think one of your lunatic viewers is going to take away after hearing you say that, Matt? We have to stop making it so easy on them. In other words, take action. He's trying to actually galvanize people to intervene and stop gender-affirming care that's being provided to trans youth. He also says fight back against this evil. And maybe we begin at Boston Children's Hospital. There is no question that this is incitement. And he knew what he was doing. He knew what he was doing. And incitement is exactly what happened because the hospital was bombarded with harassment and death threats. So much that they had to release a statement via Twitter saying, Thanks to commentary last week, critical of our Gender Multispecialty Service Program, Boston Children's Hospital has been the target of a large volume of hostile internet activity, phone calls and harassing emails including threats of violence toward our clinicians and staff. We are deeply concerned by these attacks on our clinicians and staff, fueled by misinformation and a lack of understanding and respect for our transgender community. Now they go on to explain that the claim that they're performing hysterectomies on minors as a form of gender-affirming care is completely false. And they state that they would not do this procedure on a patient under the age of 18. And it says this on their website in bolded letters. All genital surgeries are only performed on patients age 18 and older.  But let me tell you what this is about.  Now, if you're not familiar with the Libs of TikTok account, this is the account that referred to the Trevor Project as a grooming organization. Now, the Trevor Project is an organization that tries to prevent LGBTQ plus youth from committing suicide. Now this organization became prominent in the early 2010s following a plethora of LGBTQ plus teen suicides starting with Tyler Clemente. And during this wave, children as young as 13, like Seth Walsh, died after being in a coma for nine days following an attempt to hang himself.  But according to Libs of TikTok, that's a grooming organization, an organization that literally tries to save the lives of LGBTQ plus youth. And yet these people are trying to convince us that they're concerned with the well-being of these children. No, not at all. And just to be very clear, nothing that the Boston Children's Hospital is doing is illegal or unethical. Gender-affirming care has been studied for decades. And what they're doing is not only medically necessary, but they're doing what the medical consensus agrees is going to help trans youth. But they don't care because, again, it's not about the facts to them. This is about hate. And that's why they incited harassment against the Boston Children's Hospital. Now, in particular, here's some of the messages that they received courtesy of Vice News. The hospital did not specify where the threats were coming from, but Vice News has uncovered some violent threats posted on far-right and extremist platforms targeting the doctors. Long past time, to start executing these doctors, a member of a pro-Trump message board formerly known as the Donald wrote under a copy of a video featuring a doctor from the hospital. This message board is the same one whose members last week doxxed and made violent threats against the judge who signed the search warrant that allowed the FBI to search the home of former President Donald Trump. The forum's members encouraged one another to post negative remarks on the hospital's YouTube videos which were ultimately removed as a result of the influx of comments. Another member posted the phone number of the hospital and encouraged others to call them on the phone. Quote, demons like this do not deserve to breathe. Crimes against humanity equals death, one telegram user wrote under a link to one of the articles repeating the false claims. Quote, these people are psychopaths and should be locked up another row. On both platforms, the doctors and hospital staff were referred to as pedophiles and groomers, attacks that have become a mainstay of Republican orthodoxy in recent months. So that's the result of their words. And they knew that this would happen, but they did it anyway because this is what they want. It's not just that they're spewing hate. They're literally inciting harassment against doctors at a children's hospital, at multiple children's hospitals potentially, but Boston Children's Hospital in particular, they really bear the brunt of this. But I mean, this is, again, it's not just hate. It's not just bigotry. This is stochastic terrorism. This is an incitement of harassment. This is not freedom of speech.  It's worse than that because they actually are trying to get people to take action against doctors who are providing care that, again, is medically necessary to trans youth. And no, that does not include bottom surgery on teenagers. Again, if you were an adult and you qualified for gender-affirming surgery, bottom surgery, it's very difficult to get it in a country with a broken healthcare system like ours. Trans adults have a hard enough time getting bottom surgery because it's so cost prohibitive. So we don't have a universal healthcare system in this country. To make it seem as if, you know, trans youth are willy-nilly getting bottom surgeries.  They don't know how difficult it is to get any procedures in this country unless you have a lot of money. But that's what they're doing. It's not about the facts. It's not about the surgeries. It's not about the children. This is about trying to erase all queer people out of society. And it's happening socially and culturally through efforts like this, but also legislatively, where governors like Rhonda Santis are not only banding gender-affirming care for trans youth, but they're trying to medically detransition teens who have socially transitioned over the years. And when it comes to social transition, we're talking about using different set of pronouns and dressing a certain way. But they're trying to control even that. This is what it's come to. And this is not going to end well. And it's not even the end of this. This isn't as bad as it's going to get because harassment and incitement of violence against LGBTQ plus people, drag shows, this has been a common phenomenon throughout the entire year. And it always stems from accounts like Libs of TikTok, from individuals like Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro. And if it continues to happen, somebody is going to get hurt. Somebody is going to get killed. A doctor, a teacher, someone. And these accounts will have blood on their hands. But that's not going to get them to change their ways because that's the goal. It's not like they'd have a sudden change of heart if somebody actually did violence against a doctor. That's what they want. And you know, it's not like it's out of the question to worry about a conservative killing a doctor because remember, Tiller Tiller the baby killer? Bill O'Reilly for months incited harassment against an abortion doctor. And he was murdered. So the same can happen here. And that's the goal. So this is not free speech. This is stochastic terrorism. And Twitter should not allow accounts like this on their platform that is literally inciting harassment that could get someone killed.


Hi, my name is Cameron Beale. I'm from the United States and recently I took the ITTT online TFL-TESL course and I just wanted to take a minute to recommend this course to everyone. Whether you're learning English or whether you already know English it's just a good course to help you understand the English language and why we say and do different things in that language. So I really enjoyed it all the sections were well thought out and really helped me to appreciate the English language as well. So this is my post and I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you.


Hey all, what's up? My name is Nolly. Welcome to a new summer in the city full on. Today we're celebrating one of my really good friends birthdays and we are going to a rooftop pool, which I've actually never done in my four years of being here. So I'm really excited. We're going to Hotel Van Zand, but before that we definitely need some fuel in our systems, probably some carbs. And I definitely need to hydrate because we will be drinking today. So we're gonna go get breakfast somewhere. I always forget to show you guys my outfit. So this is what I'm wearing for breakfast today. We got my Goren Rose hat, skim's tank. These shorts are from Set Active. They're like super thick and kind of chunky. And then we're wearing my fuzzy berks to match my fuzzy teddy hat. We're getting hyped for tonight because I'm hoping to see tape and crying. I'll tell you guys about that later though. I feel like we rarely try new breakfast places. So I'm forcing Ryan to get out of our comfort zone and we're gonna try this new place. It's called Goldies and it's at like this, I don't even know what this place is called but basically they have like a lot of like mini food trucks and it's just all in one place. Our lucky day, they were handing out free cookie rich cookies right over here because it's Goldies and cookie rich. Taste test. It's like cookie dough. I got red velvet. The wait was a little longer than we would have liked but hopefully the food makes up for it. I got a hash brown avocado toast and then Ryan got this like cream and cheese roll. Do you like the coffee? Got like a cookie milk coffee and I got a cookie milk chai. Ryan just stopped to put gas in my car but it is crazy how expensive food is here and I feel like now that we've been here for so many years, it's just kind of normal to us. It's like that lifestyle creep but anytime we go home back to Georgia or where else were we that we were like, oh my God, how was that so cheap? When we just went back home to Georgia, we got like four pastries and it was like maybe $15 and then today we got two like coffees or whatever, one chai, one coffee, one kind of pastry thing. I got like a little avocado toast but it wasn't like this massive avocado toast. I think the total came out to be $35 for all of that. I would actually go back and really like to their chai but just what in the world are prices these days? But anyways, I just went to the Dollar General to get a birthday bag for my friend's present. I got her really cute cocktail glasses because she loves her espresso martinis so they're like martini glasses. They're like this iridescent thing. I don't want to like unbox it and show you guys because obviously I'm giving it to her as a gift and I don't want it to be like opened. And then I also got her this really cool like tequila cocktail book. So I hope she likes it. I really try to like customize gifts to my friends and like what they like. I feel like that's how all presents should be. Usually some people just get gift cards or just like candles, which is obviously still appreciated. I'm excited to give her that. And then also after the pool, there's this free concert hosted by Coca-Cola and freaking Tate McCrae is gonna be there and the chain smokers, which honestly I'm more excited to see Tate McCrae because I love her. We saw her at ACL and I think the only song I knew at that time was the You Broke Me first song. And then when Ryan left me for six months, well, he just moved back home to save money. But when he went back home, I was like in my emo girl era for no freaking reason at all. And so I would like literally play her songs all the freaking time on our Google Home. I know a lot of her songs, so it'll be really fun. And you know what's funny? Ryan went to, what did you go to? I Heart Radio Christmas thingy? What was that? I was like, there we go. And he saw Tate McCrae without me. So he's seen her twice now and today will be his third freaking time. So I'm jealous, but yeah. Chain smokers are also gonna be there and that's who all of my friends are excited to see. But the issue is we all just got stand by tickets. I don't even think they like sold tickets for this. So we're not really sure how long the line's gonna be. And also it's really hot out. I don't even know if we'll be able to stand outside for that long because we're gonna be drinking at the pool. And so we may go and we may not go. But I'm really, really hoping that we do and I'm really hoping that it will be easy to get in. But I'll definitely update you guys later on. This has quickly become my favorite swimsuit right now. It's from Amazon and it's just so flattering. It's actually a one piece but it has this like huge cut out near the stomach and I just love how it looks on me. And then this skirt is actually from Amazon too. My straw hat is from Lack of Color and we're ready to go. And she has all these fun sunglasses on the pool of course. How I should help? You know, it's so cute. I feel like I could just sit on the couch and be fine for like an entire day. Imagine Conor with his like bottle to he was. Oh wow. That's something. I'm just gonna chill it out. That's smart. You're in a little baby. Just a baby. Can you pour me one? Someone? Yes, do you want a baby? I home showered and I didn't wash my hair because I actually have a workout class tomorrow and I think it's heated. So I was like, I'm gonna get sweaty at the bars tonight. I'm gonna get sweaty at my class tomorrow so I'll wash my hair tomorrow. But I just took a body shower and now we're hoping to get in the concert. Think we're gonna go see how long the line is. See, you know, just how it all works. This is their first year doing this. And I'm really trying to manifest us getting into this concert. So I'll keep you guys updated. Guys, there's no freaking line. I'm shocked. I'm shocked. I'm so excited, let's go. I was really thirsty, so I brought a cup of chico with me. I was like, can I bring this in because it's sealed? And they're like, is it owned by Coca-Cola? I was like, I wouldn't know. Like, is it? They're like, oh yeah, you can bring it in. I was like, yes. I'm still so shocked that there's absolutely no line and now I'm sad that my friends aren't here. We're recycling our bottles so we can get some merch. We got free frozen coax and McDonald's french fries. We're about to close out this vlog. I'm so freaking happy that we went to the Coca-Cola concert. Like you saw, there was literally no line and it was just the best time. I got to see Tate McRae for the second time, like I said. And I was so happy and I knew so many songs this time. So it was like, obviously way more fun. I do wish all of our friends came, but it was like a long day and we like literally didn't know if there was gonna be a line and a lot of them just didn't wanna like chance it, so they just like headed straight to the bars. But it was just still a really cool thing and I wanted to shout out like where I heard about that because there are so many free things to do in Austin. Honestly, like there's something to do every freaking day. And I wanted to share with you guys like some of my favorite Instagram pages to find out about all the cool things happening around the city. Number one, it's my Bible. I feel like they post about everything and they did post about this Coca-Cola event is when we're at Austin, you may know them from like the blue squares.  They post free events, they post, you know, just random events that you might have to pay for, happy hour deals. It is just my go-to page when I need something to do. Next up, I love Shelby Sorrell's page. It's actually more a foodie Instagram, but I love her edits number one and then also number two. She just like goes to the newest and best spots in Austin. So we definitely find out about a lot of restaurants from her. Another one is 365 Things Austin. This one just kind of posts about it all, a lot of food, a lot of just like events happening around the city. I mean, all these pages kind of post about the same thing but they're all special in their own ways. Lastly, I want to shout out Rachel Lately.  She also posts about food and kind of everything about Austin. So definitely go check those Instagram pages out. I will try to have them all linked below. So if you guys are new to Austin or if you've lived here and you're just like kind of stuck in your bubble and you want to find more free things to do, just like things to do in general, follow them. And of course, follow me. I post a lot of Austin wrecks. I have a ton of Instagram highlights filled with Austin food wrecks and like things to do and just things to see around the city. So again, whether you're moving here, whether you're visiting, whether you live here, give all of us a follow and I will see you guys in my next vlog. Bye.


We are showcasing the work of our household waste and recycling teams in helping you to recycle more and waste less.  As you can see there's an amazing amount of recycling in that bag that the operative is now pulling out. Trash bottles, paper and card, coffee cups, drink cans, food tins, plastic bottles and plastic containers. If this recycling stayed in the bag it would go off to landfill. Please don't forget to separate your recycling from your waste when you drop it into one of our household waste and recycling sites.


Adults have got to be safe and they've got to be recognized as that and not just there to teach. Okay, just rewind. Adults have got to be safe. What does that mean? It means that they are approachable by children, they are consistent in their response, they are very calm in their response, no matter how distressed they are by what the child's telling them, they're actually able to respond in ways that contains the child's distress and they're most importantly they're able to spot the signs of when a child is starting to become distressed or upset or experienced some level of difficulty. And do you have to be nice to be safe? No. I think it's a really interesting question, yes we need to be kind and compassionate. Nice is an interesting word, we can be kind and compassionate without necessarily being nice I think. But also the children, we've got to be warm and children who have had really difficult experiences in early life with adults will be drawn towards adults close to those that they recognize. Sometimes they choose the teachers that you think oh my god why would you choose them but it's the closest thing that they recognize to an adult who's been consistent in their life. So we don't all need to be clones of the same kind of person but we do need to be compassionate and kind.


I'm not okay of divorce I'm not okay you take a stand you challenge of what's happening in your life And I want to bring up a story that happened in my own personal life because I want to encourage you this I've mentioned a Couple of times, but I want to tell you this is was my revelation in that moment where God says you cannot Stand there and allow things to happen because if you will stand the devil will rise and so There was this moment last year my mother was impacted by depression and at first, you know I just thought that you know the situation circumstances it was normal, but it was getting worse to the point of Mental illness I could say and now this is my mother, so I wouldn't say that just to say that it was true Definite impact on her mind started to hallucinate Started to act really funny just really different and this was also really generational This already affected my uncle and couple of people in my family already and this started to evolve and started to really Impact me and for me to see my mother like this and then there was one moment where there was a weak Vulnerable point with her and the spirit of fear entered her in such a way where she was watching my child She said I cannot watch your child anymore. I can't do it. I have such severe anxiety I'm worried that I'm she's gonna die in my hands like completely Just lost it would call me at four in the morning I want to tell you guys the depth of the darkness that was started to go down in my eyes Now this is the thing of that's really discouraging I already see the trait that's happening in my family that this happened to a couple of people and it's already Happening to my mom. It's not started. It's happening Now God rose up a spirit inside of me I believe that it was precious Holy Spirit that just said no this will not be I will not allow this to happen You know the truth You know that I am God that I can do the impossible You know the testimonies that you've seen the church rise up against it fight it And so I began to pray I began to wail I began to just Completely my heart was drenched with compassion that I cannot explain. It was not human. I couldn't eat I couldn't sleep All I was thinking was about my mother And so I was praying calling her twice a day calling her from like once in a while to calling her twice a day I'm so concerned my heart was drenched in this issue And so there was that moment where I was driving to the house and I was driving and I said God I am ready when you're ready. I believe you're going to set her free I believe that you are the God that answers by fire and you're going to set my mom free And so there was that moment where I was having lunch with her I looked her in the eyes and they were fully broken full of tears And she's like I cannot live like this anymore And I said you don't have to get up And so I told her to get up and I casted that demon of fear out of her and I said you will no longer come into this body ever again, and I'm telling you when she rose up The next day the next week the next month the next year She's never been the same again, and that is our God

Live from Seattle, Washington, it's The Cube at Tableau Conference 2014. Brought to you by headline sponsor, Tableau. Here are your hosts, John Furrier and Jeff Kelly. Okay, welcome back. And when we here live in Seattle, Washington for The Cube, this is our flagship program. We go out to the events, extract the scene from the noise. I'm John Furrier with my co-host Jeff Kelly, analyst at Mojibon.org. And we'd love to go talk to the senior leaders of the companies that are hosting the event Tableau Data 14 Conference, and Kelly Wright, EVP of Sales for Tableau Software. Welcome to The Cube. Thank you, thank you for having me. So you're under the, you're in the pressure cooker seat. So sales is everything, right? You guys are a public company, you have to perform. Performance is happy customers, they pay you money. You collect the cash, you put it in the bank and invest it into your business and do it again and again. You've done very well as a company, you guys have been great. So I got to ask you about where Tableau is today. Share with the folks a little bit of the history. We've been big fans of the company. Obviously we are, you know, me personally being an entrepreneur love when companies get built by the founders and don't have to raise money to start the company. They get critical mass and take the extra growth capital. And you guys have done that. You've been a real big success story as an entrepreneurial venture. Oh, thank you. So share the culture and kind of where you guys are now and with the customer base, the culture. Wow, that's a lot of questions, all in one. Well, thank you for having me. It's a pleasure being here. You know, you asked about what it's been like on this whole journey and a lot of the people that were here at the beginning, we're all still here, right? So I was the first salesperson at Tableau. I joined a month before we started version one and I've seen how things have changed and evolved and the truth of the matter is we have a lot more people, we have more customers. But the culture of the company has stayed really sound from the beginning. We were a bunch of people who were very, very passionate about this mission to help people see and understand data. And that's still our mission today. So from the day I started to now, it's all been focused on empowering people to answer their questions more. And so the culture of the people that started were very passionate, really excited about the mission, really a group of company builders who want to roll up their sleeves and go make things happen. And yes, we're a bigger company now, now we're a public company, but we're still just barely, barely scratching the surface.  We have 20,000 customers, so we have a long, long way to go. I love that you're a senior leader of the company. You've been there as the first salesperson, it's awesome. So I've got to ask you, I mean, there's always a moment in time where you go, will we make it? Or that moment where you go and the flywheel's going, could you share just some color around? Cause startups are very hard. People think they're easy, oh yes, anyone can do that. So share with a moment where you go, oh my God, it's going to be tough shipping, whether it's shipping a product or hiring or personnel or in an aha moment where you said, oh my God, we're doing it. Okay, well, when you're in this company building mode, it's just, you put your head down and you go, and you just go, go, go. And it's always about going and finding the next customer, making sure that customer's excited, ecstatic, hiring more people on the team, making sure the culture is still viming. And we really just took the focus of doing things one day at a time and treating each customer like their gold. And that's still what we do. Our customers are our lifeblood, right? And that's what's keeping us going. So there were certain times during the whole journey, I mean, I remember 2009 when the economy was slowing down, Tableau actually still grew at a really healthy clip, but it was harder.  It was an uphill battle all the time. We're still kind of the underdogs, right? You were the fog in the boiling water. You didn't know you were. There's tons of customers to help. We haven't helped tons of them yet. And it's just doing things to make sure that we're building good products, empowering people. So when was the moment when you were going, wow, we're really doing this. Did you take any break and pause and say, hey, Christian, we're doing it, we're making it? Well, you know, I think one of the moments that really resonated for me is we worked so long to say, is Tableau going to make it? Just keep doing what we're doing, believe in what we're doing, believe in that mission. And for a long time it was, can we make it to be a public company? Can we ever get to that moment? And I remember the day, it was May 17th last year, 2013 when we were on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.  So we had over 100 employees filling out the floor. And in that moment when we had the management team and Christian was ringing the bell, just looking out at all these people who had helped us build Tableau and get to that day, I think that was a moment of just a lot of pride. And it's funny talking about it right now because where I just came from is just ringing the bell again at the closing bell. That's awesome. Well, thanks for sharing that because a lot of those steps are very hard. I mean, Jeff and I talk to stuff all the time.   Well, I know, I was thinking why it's such a great story because the pile of money could complicate it. Being hungry actually is motivating. So, and then having that customer product success is a great test month.  We appreciate it. Thank you. So let's dig into the sales strategy a little bit. So as you've grown up, Tableau, when you started off, you really this, you know, this very nimble underdog, you were kind of going in there with really disrupting the old guard BI players. A lot of, more about kind of, I think of a desktop focus, a single user kind of focus. You've expanded, you've got enterprise licenses now, you've got cloud now, you've got mobile. How has the sales strategy evolved over that time period to adopt or to adjust to these new, kind of the new ways of reaching your customers? Well, you know, our model is actually really quite simple. I'll go back to what I had talked about before. If we help people see and understand data. So everything about what we're trying to do is to help people to be able to answer their own questions and to empower them with flexibility and agility and self-service. And as we add additional products, it's really just extending the number of people that we can help. Some people want to work in the cloud. So Tableau online is better. Some people want to do it on their desktop. So they're doing it more with Tableau desktop. Some people out in the server. And so as long as our sales people are looking for, what is the best way that I can help this customer to be able to be more self-sufficient in answering their own question. And then we really hear what's the customer's use case. Then to answer that, we have different products that actually fit that in. So in terms of how our sales strategy is working, the sales strategy is the same as it always is. So we don't really focus on what to do with this product line versus that product line or this product line or small customers versus big customers. It's really all in this landed expand. Let the customer buy as big or as little as they want to get started. Work with them very closely to make them successful. And then as they're successful, they'll come back to buy more. And we have all these different ways that they can buy software and types of software that they can buy to be able to address their needs of self-service, agility, and answering their own questions. Well, I wonder, has the buyer, the profile of the buyer changed at all? So I know obviously the table is all about the end user, the person who's interacting with the software or interact with the data as you like to focus on. But as you move to larger accounts, larger enterprises, are you still dealing directly with that user when you sell? Are you dealing with the central IT more often? And I guess that was kind of my question. How do you evolve to that changing buyer profile? It's a great question because if I were to roll back the clock to almost 10 years ago when I was starting, we were actually interacting mostly with the business user, so the end user. And over time, we're interacting with the C suite, we're interacting with the VP of IT, we're interacting with the business users, and actually we're working with both groups a lot. So what happened early on was we'd start with the business and over time as they bought more and more and more, they would bring us into IT. And now actually we're seeing a shift that sometimes it's the IT and the C suite that's coming to us and they're saying, hey, we wanna be able to empower our user community to answer their own questions, but we need to be able to do that in a more secure, governed control type of way and is there a way that we can balance with Tableau? So we see it happening in both. I think one of the interesting changes that we're seeing is there is a cultural shift that's going on right now. And companies are now starting to realize that the way of the past is very different than the way of the future. So the way of the past was if you had a question, you threw it over the fence to this central group that was report writers, and these report writers knew how to code and they were very, very specialized and the user that had the question, they had absolutely no idea how to operate those systems. Well now that companies are saying as data is coming in at such a fast clip, it just takes too long. They have to empower people to be able to answer their own questions, otherwise they end up being at a standstill. And so as we start having more discussions with the enterprise and the C-suite, those folks who are in IT and the CIOs who realize, hey, there's a shift that's going on and we need to be doing things in the way of where the world is going, not the way that we've done it in the past. It makes that conversation quite a bit easier. And so now we're seeing more and more conversations that are along those lines of how are we going to keep our organization to be competitive going into the future. So I got to ask you about the international expansion. We were talking earlier with your colleague Dave Martin and also when we were at the HP Big Data event. And I had also had a conversation with Dave DeWalt, CEO of FireEye, huge international. He says, John, my big growth opportunities public company, you got you guys. He says, international's huge growth opportunity for us. It is for us. So you have a TAM, 55 million customers. You have one of those unique products that all customers need. So that's good, check. Growth is on the horizon. So how are you going to attack that new territory?  I mean, channel strategy, indirect, big part of it. You guys are enabling people to create value. That seems to be the formula for a great indirect strategy. You built a successful direct sales force, congratulations, but that can take time. Yeah. Well, you know our model for international, international is a huge opportunity for us. So we are putting a lot of resources and time into expanding internationally. We have our headquarters over in Amia. We have headquarters over in APAC. We are now just, we opened up offices in Japan and in Germany. We opened up operations in India. We are opening up another, a bigger office in Australia. And even in Latin America, Brazil and Mexico, there's a fair amount going on. Now, as we're going to market, it actually is pretty similar. So we're building direct sales force in all of those regions, but international, as you start doing more international, the channel becomes even more increasingly important. And it is, we're focusing a lot of time and energy on the channel here in the States, but in places like Amia and certain locations over in APAC and certainly in Latin America, there is just the way of doing business tends to be more around the channel. Well, localization has always been a nice thing of having in-country operations. That's always been kind of the international playbook. But with data, I can be complicated. So having people in-country in a channel delivering value, is that the preferred way? You guys, is that what you're saying? Is that kind of thing? You know what? Well, the interesting part about Tableau is as we talked about, it's agnostic. Anyone can use it. And so when we go into a new country, there's two ways that we can go in. We can go in with our direct team and we can go in with empowering our channel. And we actually have customers in over 100 countries throughout the world, right? And we have partners operating in a large number of those. So our partners often are the ones that are the local feed on the street. They're going and they're having the conversations and they're providing the local support in the language and in the culture that it is. Now, when we actually open up offices in those different regions, we try to be very aligned, not only just putting our salespeople in, but having our entire company all lined up behind it. So we have our sales team. We have our marketing. We have our product. So when we go into Japan, for instance, we want to be able to have the website in Japanese. We want to be able to have the product localized in Japanese. We want to be able to have support staff that can help. And then, of course, having the partner ecosystem where the partners are able to help us make those customers all really successful. Have you had channel conflict yet in the US? I mean, as you guys get the channel going, has there been some channel conflict on orders and on the accounts? Yeah, well, you know what? Our channel, we're developing a lot in the channel, but we're still pretty early in our channel development and we're spending a lot of time to make sure that our channel is really successful as well as our customers being successful. And the truth of the matter is we can't go and help all the people that we want to help without embracing the channel. And there's system integrators that they're in there and they're doing huge multi-year projects and we're working closely with them. And when we talk about the channel, we're working with resellers, but also OEM and technology partners and system integrators. So lots and lots of channel activity going on. Yeah, I think you just touched on, what I think is going to be one of the challenges for Tableau is that you can't, as you expand so fast, you can't keep your finger or your pulse on the customer quite as closely as maybe you'd like. You've got to count on the channel to do some of that. Absolutely. And Tableau is, of course, known for being very customer focused. I mean, at this show here, the crowds are cheering and Christian, as he's giving his keynote and different visualizations are being demoed on stage and the crowd's standing on their feet. To keep that kind of customer focus as you expand, I think is a challenge, but it sounds like you really got to focus on developing those relationships with your partners and your OEM partners, et cetera. So that they kind of understand that the Tableau approach. Is that good to be able to get it? I totally agree. Actually, I think you can even see at this show today, if you go down to that partner expo hall, there are so many partners here, way more partners than we've ever had before. And when I was checking in with them, even yesterday, where the show hadn't even started, they're getting a huge number of leads that are coming in and there's so many opportunities for us to work together with our partners. In fact, this year, not only did we build of being really growing our partner sales team, but we had a whole series of partner summits this year. And we traveled around the world, we had one in Amia, one in APAC, one here in the States, of being able to really train and enable our partners, not only how to sell Tableau, but to work with them in a conversation of what's the best way that we can engage with them and make them really successful. So when we think about our ecosystem, it's not just about our customers. It's now about our customers and about our partners, and we're all part of the Tableau family. So talk about this show here. So obviously, one of the things that you guys have, that you do a great job is you're such walking testimonials as customers. What channel partners do you have as customers and that are top references now that you're showcasing and what end users are you showcasing here at this event? Can you name names and... Yeah, well, I think you can actually go downstairs and look in the partners of who we are. And we're doing lots and lots of partner with whether it's Vertica or with Altarix or with Teradata, where we're doing joint sales and a lot of the SIs that you'll see here, they're using Tableau internally in a pretty big way. And then in terms of customers, we have showcases all over the place. I think we have 100 customer speakers that are here. So there are hospitals. We have Barnes-Jewish and Seattle Children's who are talking about how they're using Tableau actually in the operating rooms and with nurses and to be able to help save lives. We have education institutions who are using Tableau for how they can teach better in school, how the teachers can have their administration going. And we also have a number of corporate customers who are helping with that as well. So one of the things that we always talk about when we talk about startups, you guys aren't a star, certainly, but company building is a great team. You guys are on that next generation of building out. You always get the question, high touch sales, indirect, low cost or automated self-service if you're kind of a platform. Inside sales is a great strategy for expanding out growth, but it's hard. You guys have an inside sales organization. You are building it out. Is that a big part of your increase in your customer service? Because a lot of, you've got great fans. Loyalties high, product is good. So are you building out of support organization? We got started predominantly with inside sales. So we started with inside sales and then enterprise sales came later. And with our inside sales, we still have a very, very robust inside sales. We have kind of both models. Some customers prefer to be interacted with field, face to face. And so we have field folks that are all over, in our, all our major regions. And we have a lot of inside folks. And the same is true when we look at how we're going to support them. So we have technical folks and services folks and training folks that will go out and meet the customer on their site, help to enable them, setting up center of excellence, all that. And then we have a large number of that, that is done remotely. The benefit we have at Tableau is actually, Tableau's pretty easy to use. And so we don't always have to sit down and do it beside them. So how about sales compensation, if you will? Not with numbers, but like, I mean, culturally is it? We're hiring.  Like in the early days of Cisco sales guys were making, you know, zillions of dollars. Does Tableau have the kind of product pricing mix where you guys have a lot of like, huge compensation rewards? So how does that work? You know what, we focus on having our salespeople be really excited about working here, having it be a very good, Compensation motivates behavior, as you know, right? I mean, compensation tries behavior. How do you guys? So we have a lot of salespeople that have been here for a very long period of time. So we have a huge opportunity and we focus on the opportunity to help more customers. And then the opportunity to have a really good career progression path here. So yes, I'm not gonna answer your question, but you can keep on asking it. That was a great try, John. So I wanna talk a little bit about the competitive landscape.  Again, when you guys started, you were very much the disruptor going in. Let's name some names. We're still the disruptor. You had SAP Business Objects, you had Cognos, Hyperion, you guys are going in there and saying, no, that's the old way, this is the new way. Since then, some of those old players are starting, they're focusing now on being very self-service, kind of emulating a lot of things Tableau did. Now you've got also kind of even newer companies, newer startups out there that are coming, even some are maybe mobile focused or cloud focused. What's the competitive landscape look like for you? And from a sales perspective, again, how do you adapt as you've got a coming from, you know, from the new guys, you've got a coming from the old guard, you guys are a target. When you're this successful, you're always gonna be a target. What's it like from your perspective? You know, one of the things that we actually really focus on at Tableau, as we talk about this a lot internally with our team, is we can only control what we can control. We can control what our products are. We can control what our customer success is. We can control how we engage with our customers. And so we spend a lot of time just focusing on what it is that Tableau can do. And as we're now talking more about data discovery and agile analytics and self-service, there's a lot of noise out there. A lot of other players who are saying that they can do the same thing and that they can do it as well. And our strategy is really, if you think you can use that, so why don't you go download their product and download our product and see how long it takes. And we actually encourage people to go out and test it out and try. And what we find is when someone is really interested in self-service and helping people to answer their own questions, then the answer to them becomes really clear. When it is a question of, we just want traditional old pixel, perfect reporting. Yeah, then there are a lot of people that can play in that game, but we're finding the conversations changing quite a bit. When they really want self-service, then we actually feel like we're pretty well positioned competitively. So are a lot of your deals going up in competitive environments where you've got Tableau lined up against business objects against, I don't know, good data against whoever. Is it a lot of that? Or do you have a lot of people who are trying the product love it and just say, hey, we want to go with Tableau? You know there's both, but the majority of our deals are actually when we're competing against a status quo. They actually aren't even looking at other businesses. They might have it in their company, but it's not solving their need and their requirement. So a lot of people are just using what is already commissioned on their computer. Now there are situations where there is a competitive bake-off and we love competition. I mean, that's what sales people do, we go and compete. But we're finding that the conversation is shifting and where we tend to really focus our time and energy is with those companies that are really looking for the new way. Kelly, I got to get the hook here, but I want to ask you two final questions. One is an easy one. What's it like working with Christian? It's great working with Christian. You know what? We've worked together all for so long and it's really, we say it's like we're a family, right? We know each other, we know each other's families, we know each other's kids and it's pretty much the same as it was when I started almost 10 years ago. Nothing's really changed. The second question, share with the folks out there that are watching. What is the culture of Tableau? If you could, every culture has their own little weird tweak that makes them so unique. Intel, it's Moore's Law. What's Tableau's cultural? Well, you have to go ask all the Tableau people if they think our culture is weird. Probably people would say what's weird. A unique tweak that makes them so successful. You know what? Moore's Law was first called weird. I think people that work here are really, really passionate about what we do. We're passionate, we're mission focused and people have a lot of fun at what they do. They work hard and they play hard and it's a very fun place to be, but we go fast. Yeah, certainly not weird, that's for sure. I didn't mean that. No, it's okay. Weird in a good way. Yeah, a good thing. A good thing. It's usually the best deals are the ones that no one sees that doesn't look like it's gonna, and you guys were certainly a great winner. Well, we're hiring. So everyone in the world, we're hiring. We couldn't get the sales comp out of her, but we tried our best. Kelly, seriously, thanks for coming on Q. We appreciate it. We know the journey you've been on has been fantastic. It's a world win. Now you just got to go the next leg of the journey, which is build a global 50 million customer business. Thank you very much for the time. Thank you for having me. We'll be right back with our next guest after this short break. Live in Seattle, Washington, the Q. Thank you.


Hello and welcome to the session. Today I will help you with the following question. The question says, can a polyhedron have for its faces three triangles? A polyhedron is a solid made up of polygonal region's faces. This is the key idea to be used in this question. Now let's move on to the solution. We already know that the smallest polygon is a three sided figure that is triangle. Let's analyze this figure. As you can see that this is a polyhedron with three triangles as its faces and the base is also a triangle which forms another face. So we have that there should be at least four faces of the polyhedron. Hence there will be at least four faces of the polyhedron. A polyhedron cannot have for its faces three triangles. Hence our answer is no. So hope you enjoyed the session. Have a good day.


Hi, one. I've looked at your homework for 8.2 and have some thoughts that may help. I don't know which technology you're using, so I'm going to try to show you both StatCrunch and Excel for these. The first problem, 8.2.9, you're given information that the null, the two means are equal alpha is 0.2 and the sample statistics are given, the summary statistics, the mean of the sample one, the standard deviation of sample one and the sample size. Same information for sample two. Note down here that you're told the variances are equal. Variances are just the square of the standard deviation, but that's an important factor. They give you the critical values, but the Excel calculator in particular will also give you the critical values in just one step. It's important when you're doing these things to pay attention to the two hypotheses here. We've got a statement of equality. That is the null hypothesis, but in some problems, they will make claims. You need to be aware of that. Down here in your answer, you got the test statistic correct, which is just the difference in the two means. X bar one minus X bar two is 3.8. The standardized test statistic, you got a three, and I think that may be because you didn't recognize that this is equal variances instead of unequal variances. Let's look at StatCrunch. I have StatCrunch open for all the hypothesis tests that we run in 233. You would start with Stat, and then you pick either Z-Stats or T-Stats for these differences of two means. Remember, you use T-Stats when you don't know the population standard deviation sigma. Here, we are not given the two population sigmas. We only have the standard deviations or the samples that we used to approximate them. We would go to T-Stats, and this is a two sample with summary. We bring up this dialogue box, and we just enter the data, and here I have the data entered. One thing you need to be aware of is this calculations options there. It says pool variances, which is not clear to a lot of folks. If the variances are equal, you need to pool the variances. They have a note here that this default was recently changed to off. In the past, and I think in some of my videos, the default was already checked. Here, if we have equal variances, we need to check the pool variances, and we need to set up the hypothesis test down here because the null was equal. That means the alternative must be not equal, which is okay. I'm going to go ahead and click compute, and we get this answer here, and you can see that's very much suspiciously like the answer you have here of 3.0, a little bit off. That was because we did it without pool variances, which is what you need for unequal variances. Let's go back, edit. This time, I want to check pool variances, and click compute, and we bring the information up there. You can see our t-stat 2.576 is correct. Our sample difference 3.8 is correct, and we've got a p-value of 0.0166, which is less than our alpha of 0.2, so that would tell you to reject the null. On this problem, we're given the two critical values, the lower critical value of minus 1.3, and then upper of plus 1.3. This test statistic, standardized test statistic 2.5676, is to the right of that, it falls into rejection, and that agrees with the p-value to reject this. I want to go back to the options edit for a second. Later on, one of the problems you missed, two of the problems, were for finding the confidence intervals for a mean difference, and you can get that very easily here at StatCrunch. Just check that, put in the confidence level you want, which is 0.2 for ours, and we click compute, and it gives us the confidence level, upper lower limit and upper limit. That, of course, matches the variances. This is equality. If I go back and edit and change that so we have unequal variances, compute will get a slightly different set of confidence intervals. So be aware that you can get that very quickly using StatCrunch.


The study examined the concept of U2 in Tanzania by developing a five-factor measurement scale and validating it with adolescents. The results showed that U2 is a collective asset associated with higher levels of reported resilience in both orphan and non-orphan adolescent populations in Tanzania. Furthermore, promoting U2 may be an effective universal public health prevention approach. This article was authored by Megan Cherwick, Ronald E. Dahl, Daphna Rubin, and others.
