Yes. May I come in, sir? One, sir. One, sir. Please, sir. Thank you, sir. Salis. Yes, sir. Salis is from Bikaner. Yes, sir. Okay. Everywhere we find Bikaneri, Bikaneri is some trademark brand because there are so many Bikaners. Bikaneri, Namkeen and I don't know whether those are genuine or not. Sir, one of the reasons has been the many of the families who have moved from Bikaneri to different parts of the country because of sometimes, because of the limited opportunity due to desertic conditions and sometimes due to business expansion of the business. So that's why their families are also expanding at the name of Bikaneri. And at the same time, sir, some people are also using the brand Bikaneri to promote their business or to sustain themselves. This Bikaner, Bikaneri, what is the Bikaner brand? The main brand which is available. Sir, there are many brands that have come through the Bikaner. For example, like the Bikaji or Haldiram, these have roots from the Bikaner. For using Bikaneri, there is no specific guidelines. But there is some trademark that is there. Sir, for the Bikaner, Gujia, the GI tech has been given. That is Bikaner Gujia. Yes. What do you say, Bikaner, all these food codes and all? Bikanerwala. Yes, this is the most tested brand. Bikanerwala. So which I should go for, if I want to visit some food court or to taste some sweets or Namkeen. Sir, in that case, you should come to the Bikaner. There are many different... I cannot go to Bikaner for that. I am talking about Delhi. Sir, there are some good brands such as the one the Bikaji, Haldiram or the Bikanerwala. Yes, sir. Actually all the three, they have roots from the common family. Your father was in education department. Yes, sir. What is the secondary education, primary education, technical education? Sir, in Rajasthan, the education has been divided into two parts. One is the school education and the college education. In the school education, there have been two segregation, the primary and elementary education and the secondary education. And what about technical education? There is no such department? Sir, that is under the college education department. Third department. Yes, sir. Even the ministries for the school education and the college education, they are different. They are different ministers. Yes, sir. Okay. Which is the top sugar producing state in our country? I think the last two, three years and changes have taken place. I am sorry, sir. I am not aware, but there has been shift from the northward towards the southern states. Just guess for which are more important sugar producing states? Sir, the, I think it was the Uttar Pradesh. But now, as far as I am able to recall, it might be Maharashtra. Okay. Other than Maharashtra? I am sorry, sir. Bihar or Haryana or Punjab or Karnataka, Gujarat. Okay. It might be in the southern states. Okay. We have Indian Forest Act of 1927. Yes, sir. It is a central act. Yes, sir. But the states also have got powers to amend this act? Sir, the certain forest and the certain provisions of the forest, they are put in the concurrent list of seven schedule. So the states have the powers to clarify some of the acts that are being present in the Indian Forest Act. Some of the provisions? Yes, sir. Some of the provisions, state governments also can change? Sir, generally, if for changing some provisions or countering the National Act, they have to send a file or deal act for the president's consent. I am packing about the specific Indian Forest Act, the Central Act. It is applicable throughout the country. Yes, sir. If some state want to make some amendments in particular provisions, whether they can do that? Yes, sir. They can do that, but the file has to be sent to the president's consent. But if it is not in conflict with the provisions given in the act, why it should go? Sir, that it can go because the forest has been mentioned in the concurrent list of the seven schedule. Okay, and would the same thing apply to CRPC and CPC also? CRPC is Criminal Procedure Code. Yes, sir. Civil Procedure Code. Those are also Central Acts. Those also can be amended by the state governments? I am not sure, sir, exactly about this. That's okay. See, there has been some controversy regarding the airbags in the vehicles. Yes, sir. Now I think two or three are there, so government insisting that it should be six airbags. And manufacturers have been objecting. So what is this? Sir, it is regarding the cost of the vehicle. Generally, in the Indian market, that is very cost-sensitive. So in the base model, the company tries to keep the bare minimum airbags. However, considering the safety of the driver and the riders, it is necessary that there should be at least six airbags that has been provisions being made by the service. Can you see the airbags in the normal vehicle? Sir, generally, when there is a impulse on the car. Impulse on the car. Yes, sir. And then they come out. As I am having curiosity, can I press something and see the airbag coming out and then put it back? Sir, as far as I am aware, it would not be possible. That is not possible. In back in this position. All right, Mr. Machra. Yes, sir. You have done BTEC in mechanical engineering from IIT, Delhi. Yes, sir. And after that you did MSC in chemistry. Yes, sir. You also got CSIR UGC in chemical science. Sir, the in the net or the GRF in the chemistry is known by the name the chemical science. So what I am trying to point out, there is nothing to do with your core subject of mechanical engineering. Sir, after my graduation, I was preparing for the civil services and forest service examination. So side by side, I was also giving private rations to class 11 to 12th for NEET and GE Advanced examination. So thereby, I developed an interest in the chemistry and then I decided to go for the masters in chemistry. No, it seems that our society has missed a very good chemist. I am sorry. The society has missed a very good chemist. You could have been a good chemist. Sir, currently I am appointed as a chemist in Geological Survey of India. If I am able, if I am not able to make it with Indian forest services, then I would be really doing my duties. Very appropriate job for you. So why do you want to go into forest service? I think looking at your profile and your interest, you got a very good job. Yes, sir. You will probably no doubt excel in that job. Sir, yes sir, the job as in chemistry is very exciting and interesting. And however, at the same time, my role as in chemist would be very limited. However, in the Indian forest service, I would get a greater exposure opportunity. What is the job of a chemist in Geological Survey? Sir, the immediately we have to look after the different Royal Socks and mineral samples. We have to look after, we have to analyze the water samples if provided to us. And we have to prepare the basic geochemical at least of our country. All right. Now, if you look at nature, nature has taken only few elements from the periodic table, maybe about 28 or 29 elements from the periodic table and created all the functions and with such quaint beauty, beauty. Whereas we humans have taken all the elements from the periodic table and created all kinds of problems. Can you comment on this and what is your view and what can we learn? Sir, the excess of anything is right. If we are able to utilize within the carrying capacity of the nature, then all the elements, they have their certain properties and their use. True, but then nature is able to provide all the functions using very less elements which is sustainable. Sir, in small amount, apart from the radioactive elements, all the elements are present. For example, even up to the Redone, we are able to find in their natural states. So, they are roughly around 86 elements that are present in their natural states. They might be present in the natural state, but it is not utilized by nature. Sir, due to the density differentiation, some of the elements, they are present. However, to make life sustainable, the certain components that are required for our biological system, they are around 30 to 40. But even in the, for example, the nickel, that might not be useful directly. However, it is useful for maintaining the magnetism of the earth. Now, if you look at dye industry, the colour, the colour of human being produced, which is what is dyes, and dye is a major pollutant of major rivers and groundwater. Whereas, if you look at nature, it also produces all kinds of colours, beautiful colours. How is nature able to produce colours without producing any pollution or any chemicals? Sir, because the colour in the dye that comes through some of the chemical substances or the colour of those chemical substances, the colour that a natural presents are through the harmful, non- harmful chemicals, which do not have the side effect. However, one of the major issues with the dye industry has been the use of the chromium-6 colour, because that is very dangerous. So, if we are able to utilize that chromium-6 and convert it to the chromium-3, that would be very less dangerous as compared to chromium-6. So, the nature has some of the processes through which it converts more harmful substances into less harmful substances. So, that we artificially are not able to proceed that hard, because there is some cost associated with it. So, ideally we should go for instead of chromium-6, we should convert that as chromium-3 and release in the nature. What about structural colouring? Have you heard about structural colouring? Nature uses structural colouring a lot. That is utilizing light as a source for colouring. I am sorry, sir. What is sentinel species? I am sorry, sir, I am not talking. Something called cannery in the cave. There is a term called canneries in the cave. I am sorry, sir, I will go back and look into it. Because when these miners used to go to caves, they used to carry a bird. So, the bird was very sensitive. So, that can be classified as sentinel species. But you are also a poet. Can I say that poets and artists are canneries of society? Yes, sir. Through the emotions and the poems and the emotions used in those poems, they are better able to reflect some of the realities of the society or some of the feelings of the individual. So, in the result, they are able to motivate or lead the people. The context is canneries in the cave. When the carbon monoxide in the cave increases, the canneries tend to die. So, the cave people are, people who are miners are aware that there is a danger. Yes, sir. Similarly, are poets and artists able to anticipate dangers which is facing the society? That is the question. Sir, one of the ways could be through the, they are able to highlight the some of the social events through the beautiful message and through some of the metaphors and the ironies. Secondly, sir, some of the poems that even I read, even that are written by me or some other, some other poems, that helps us to motivate me during the hard times. Sorry to interrupt. This is an occasion where you could also ask the permission to recite one of your poems, right? Yes, sir. Because you are explaining something and you are also referring your poems. You could take the permission and say, sir, I have a line from my poem and you could recite that. Yes. Do that. Sure, sir. Sir, one of the, except from my poem. Can I recite? Yes, please. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. Okay Selesh, you are from Rajasthan. Yes sir. I would like to know, I mean Rajasthan government is doing excellent job. Three flagship programs of Rajasthan government. Sir, one of the schemes has been the Bhamasha card that has integrated a different 54 departments and different ministries into the one card. So that has led to the paperless and distillation services to the citizens. Sir, second has been the focus on the renewable energy. There has been increased upthrust for the wind and the solar energy, especially in the western Rajasthan. And sir, third has been the Mukhyamantri Chiranjeevi youth now, that provides the free medicine as well as the free healthcare checkup to all the citizens, especially to the citizens above 60 age and below poverty line. This is new one. Yes sir. This is new program. Sir, Sir, earlier there were, there are the three components of the scheme. One is the free checkup, free indoor care and free insurance. So earlier these three were divided into different care and they were divided in different schemes. So as a result, there was not the ease of service delivery. So now it is easier for the, even for the, as a citizens as well as the government to take track of the record. That's very good. Okay. Now please tell three very, very important program which has changed the face of the common people by government of India because government of India having 300 program, but I want only three from you. Sir, if I take the context of the western Rajasthan and Bikaner and Churu to be particular, the first, the major has been the Swachh Bharat Abhyan because there are many places where they were not having the toilet. Sir, second has been the Kusum because people have been aware of the importance of the renewable energy and also the waste land that has been converted into the green land. And sir, third has been the Jav-Sallam-Yoshna because there has been the recharge of many of the natural as well as artificial ponds in the region as well as it has provided drinking water to many of the villages which earlier were not having. Okay. Indra Gandhi canal is a face changer for Rajasthan. Yes. But it has got certain problems of late. What are those concerns which has this canal has created? Of course it has done a lot of service to the San people. Please tell some, what are the problems I wanted to know. Sir, it has been a lifeline for the western Rajasthan. However, the excess of anything is bad. Same happened here. Few problems. First of all is the increasing salinity issues and the water lobbying issues that has also led to the malarial conditions in the region. Sir, second major problem has also been related to the increasing monoculture that is also related to the growing of the exotic species along the Indra Gandhi river. And second is also the people have shifted towards the wheat, rice and in some regions of the Anmangat, the sugarcane. So, these are the water intensive crop which are not suitable for the climatic conditions and also the monoculture the people have shifted away from the pulses, maize and vajra these types of crop. Okay. Suppose you get your own cattle Rajasthan and become the digital forest officer. Suppose Jaipur or Jodhpur or may be Bhikhanel or area is given to you around 100 hectares for plantation and all areas are barren and then I mean the sands are there. How are you going for plantation activity? You start. Sir, first would be to divide the region into the different small areas. Some of the areas could be kept for the grazing of the cattle and the domesticated animals. Sir, the second could be to choose few of the species that are growing very well native species. For example, the Babool, Kheyjiri and Sir, the Rohira or these type of species which are platable to the animals as well as at the same time they are also multipurpose trees and they are well and they go very well in the desertic conditions. Sir, third would be especially in the western Rajasthan there has been drive to go for the river and buffers along the Indira Gandhi canal. So, in that context and the growing of the local species which could hold the water and which could hold trees and also which are tolerant to the salinity conditions. This would be my priority order. What is the importance of nursery in context of developing a really good plantation? Sir, one of the major aim of the nursery is to reduce the regeneration time because in the open forest the condition would not be ideal and at the same time it would take some time for the crop to grow. However, if the trees are grown in the nursery and later transferred to the field conditions, the mortality rate would be also less and at the same time the requirement such as water and nutrient that would also be less as compared to the requirement in the nursery. What is the importance of root trainers and greenhouses in context of nursery? Have you heard these terms? Sir, I have heard that to greenhouses but not the root trainers. Can I make a guess for you? Sir, it might be related to the drainage of the excess water through the nursery. It is a small tray type thing. You can put the seeds and the root is very straight for that. This is artificially helping to the growth of the plant. Thank you, sir. Salish. Yes, sir. Nice. So, you have a hobby of writing poems. Yes, sir. There is a new form of poetry, Haiku. Yes, sir. What is it? Sir, it refers to the set of three lines whereby the first line has the five words, second line has the seven and third is also five. The total 17 word poem. They might or they might not be related to the one or other lines. Okay. Why is it becoming so popular? Sir, one of the reasons has been in very small words, you are able to convey the very large message whereby sometimes the first line and the second line they are not related with each other. However, in the third line we are able to connect both the line with each other as well as connect to the some common messages. Okay. Can you name some invasive plant species in India? Sir, one of them is Prasafis julephsora. Then the some of the species of the ecliptes and lentina species. What is the impact of invasive plant species? Sir, one of the impact that has been seen in the western Rajasthan due to ecliptes is the declining groundwater because it extracts a lot of water. As a result, groundwater depletion takes place. Secondly, these species are not playable. So, the quality of grassland that has also declined because they overtake because they are not playable. So, as a result, the amount of other native species is present declining. So, the quality of grassland also declined. Okay. So, how many or can you name some protected areas in Rajasthan? Sir, some of the three national parks in Rajasthan Kailada National Park, Ranthambur National Park and Seshka National Park. Apart from that, there are the four tiger reserves. Two of them are the Ranthambur and Seshka. Apart from that, Kundra Hills Tiger Reserve and Ramgad Vijthari Tiger Reserve. And even there are 31 wildlife centuries in Rajasthan. Okay. How has been the implementation of Forest Rights Act in Rajasthan? Sir, there are very few reasons where the forest community has been residing in the forest. They are the southern and the southwestern regions of the Rajasthan. Okay. All right. You have a hobby of teaching. Yes, sir. So, can you tell me, UGC has made some changes, various changes and many progressive steps have been taken. Yes, sir. Can you list down a few of them? Sir. Which has been taken in the last seven, eight months. Sir, one of the steps has been the new education policy that has been converted into the teacher training program that has been converted into four-year program, the BA program that earlier was two years. And secondly, sir, for the college education, there was mandatory VST that was to be enforced from 2023. Now, that has been shifted again for the one year due to the COVID and other implementation issues. Okay. Many private universities have sprung up in Rajasthan. Yes, sir. Yeah. So, can you evaluate them and can you tell me the positives and negatives of it? Sir, currently, India is undergoing a demographic dividend. The number of states in the government colleges has been very limited. So, as a result, the coming of the private colleges and universities that has helped us to bridge the gap between the required students to be employed at the same time, the number of students that are coming. However, at the same time, the major issues has been the quality of education provided by the private colleges and universities. That has been the below subpar. So, in that matter, the UCC and all India Technical Education Committee, they should come together and ensure that the highest standards of the college education that are being set and met by the colleges, private colleges especially. Okay. Last question. What do you mean by biodiversity hotspots? Sir, biodiversity hotspots are the regions or the areas where there is very high biodiversity present. At the same time, there has been an equally high threat to the biodiversity of that region. Generally, there are the two conditions for a region to come under the biodiversity hotspot. First is it should have more than 1500 endemic species which are present only in that region. Secondly, more than 70% of areas should be under threat. Okay. What do you mean by endemic species? Sir, the species that are present only in that region and nowhere else. Okay. Thank you.


Welcome to Jalassette News. Take a look at top stories and cryptocurrencies in Jalassette's and bring them down to bite-sized pieces today. We've only got two stories and they're pretty interesting. First up, a universal basic income app launches and it gives users free crypto. I'm excited about this one because I've always been a fan of universal basic income. So it's interesting to see that this actually comes alive on the blockchain also. This is going to be a complex story, but it's going to reveal the ridiculousness of the market. So first we've got Aves lend spikes by over 21% after a coin-based custody reveals exploring the AVE token. And to reveal why this is kind of ridiculous, we need to take a hard look at what exactly AVE is. But before we do that, let's take a look at what's going on in the markets. So today it is October 18th at its high noon Texas time and it looks like we've got a little bit of a rebound. So Bitcoin's up by a percent. I'm happy with that almost at 11.5. So back again after that OKX debacle that is going on over there. Ethereum up two and a half percent almost back to 380. So everything looks like it's almost going back. A tether's tether, XRP almost to its rightful place, pegged to the quarter at 24 cents. Bitcoin cash 1.9%, one chain link up 3.6, almost at $11. So just pretty much a nice little rebound and pretty much what I thought was going to happen.  Fundamentals don't change. The cryptocurrencies last at market. Nothing really happened.  And it's just a great opportunity to just pick up a little flash sale between, you know, 3% to up to 10%. And here we are going right back to where we were before the OKX story. So if you took the advice and bought the dip, congratulations to you. I know I did that myself, but we'll see what happens. Let's see where we got as far as the biggest losers. Crypto.com down 9%, down 21% for the weekend. I've been getting a lot of emails, direct messages on Twitter. Apparently there's something going on with rewards and staking. So I don't really get it into crypto.com as far as like one of the exchanges or wallets I recommend. I just don't. People always send me things like, it's awesome. It's awesome. But I don't know. I just don't get into it. And this is, I think one of those reasons everybody's going to have growing pains every single wallet and every single exchange is going to have issues. There is no perfect thing out there. And when things like this happen with the rewards getting slashed, of course, you're going to see a big tumble. Eos, Monero, everything's up 2.1%. There is a hard fork coming up for Monero, but they're not splitting. It's just a upgrade. So I think people are really into that. They think it might be something else, but they're not going to split. It's just an upgrade for the protocol. And let's see. Cosmos up 5.5. OKB, 9.7%. That's weird. It's considering that they are the official token of OKX, but yeah, sure. 2.8 for Huobi, 8.4 for VeChain. Fantastic for your VeChain holders. Hey, 7.5% up for Uniswap. Makes me happy. And then, wow, 25% for UMA. Another DeFi token. Synthetics, 12.8 for Urn. And what else do we have? And this is a weird one. The Ave, which we're going to talk about right now. It's down 3%. Before I actually get into that, let's just go on to the main story and then we'll jump into the Ave issue. So first up, this was pretty interesting. This was sent to me by J to the T. Thanks, J to the T. I really appreciate it. And it talks about universal basic income app, launches, gives users free crypto and really free money if you look at it. Circles is a universal basic income app based on the Ethereum blockchain. If you're not really familiar with universal basic income, it really what it states is that everybody should get a set amount on a matter of their position and matter if they're super rich or super poor, everybody gets a set amount. And we actually have this in the United States in Alaska. They get about $1,600 annually. And all they have to really do is just be residents of Alaska. And really what it comes down to is each resident gets to have a share of the state's oil revenue because oil is heavy in Alaska. And it states most everyone is living in Alaska for a year or more, just got $1,600, no strings attached. The annual giveaway shares the Arctic state's oil revenues with its residents, but Alaska's program now in 38th year is also providing valuable data. It goes on to some of the things, but yeah, we do have universal basic income, which is in one state. So when I see an article here about universal basic income being put on the blockchain, I'm like, tell me, let's see what's going on. Because everybody likes free money, but I don't really think anything's really free. So circles is a basic income on the blockchain launched today. Here is the creator Martin Kopelman and talks about how it took him seven years just to get here, which is pretty impressive. Only took him seven years circles, which is launched on the X dietherium side chain gives each of us users a basic income in the form of a cryptocurrency called circles, value of a circle, which a president is unclear increases as more people use the network. So that sounds a little bit odd right now, but maybe it'll actually work out. Let's see. The protocol issues circles to all of its users each week upon sign up, you'll receive 100 circles, then you'll receive about 14 each week, and the value should inflate by 7% each year. Anyone can create an account, but to verify it, you'll need three incoming trust connections. I'll get to that in a bit. This means that three people most invite you to the platform, the Berlin based company, which launches as Germany experiences a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. If from Germany, let me know about that because one of our renters is actually from Germany. He talks about how Germany is doing actually pretty well because they're doing contact tracing. So is that true? What they're saying about is that is there a second wave coming about? Let me know in the comment section. So anyway, circles advises that you only verify other users if you know someone in person. How are many users have posted their invitation codes on Twitter so people can verify? Sure. And of course, it took seven years like we just talked about upon launch, its website struggled to handle the activity and its servers crash. So let's take a look at that. Maybe we should sign up for it. So it is join circles.net. The link will be in the description like everything else in this video. So let's see what we got. Nice little slick looking website. And here's how you do it. Looks like four steps. Sign up, get trusted, receive your circles, use your circles. I like that. That seems pretty simple. Let's just see how this all works out, shall we? So we're going to click on get circles. And it's going to take us to circles.garden. And we can log in or sign up. Since I haven't done anything, I'm going to click on sign up unconditional income. Interesting. Circles is designed to be a basic income from the bottom up. When you create a circles account, you are initially issued circles on a regular basis. So that's the whole point of UBI. So next, you can spend circles with people you trust and the people they trust only it looks like. And you can build your own economy. Circles has no central leadership. So it's yours to create. You can invite friends and local businesses to circles to support and create alternative income. So it looks like you are building this yourself. So when we talk about why does the dollar have value? Why does this have value? It's because we give it value. And that looks like that's exactly what circles is all about. So let's find it. Got it. Create your username. I'm going to go with digital asset news. Let's see if anybody's taking it. Oh, look at that. No one's taking it. Amazing. Continue. Enter email. Well, that's pretty simple. And continue. So here's our seed phrase. I'm going to write this down in my stonebook. Did you save your seed phrase? Please enter word two in your seed phrase. Sure. Oh, great. Now you can, your photo is how your friends can search for you in the circles app. Well, and there we are. So sign me up. All right. You're kind of successfully created. Now we need to verify my account. How do you do that? To receive your basic income, three people must trust your profile. So looks like three have to actually know me who are in this whole thing. So share the profile link. Let me click on that. And I think what I will do is put this on Twitter like everybody else. Let me tweet something. So I'm going to say checking out this universal basic income for the blockchain. If you know what this is about, help me get verified. And I'll put the profile right there. And let's tweet that out. All right. So that's it. So let's see how that works out. But it's an interesting concept. Again, I don't know if circles will be worth anything at any point, but universal basic income seems to work in other places. So maybe it'll work in the blockchain. Let me know what you think in the comment section. Let's move on. Next up, Ave. I've been interested in Ave ever since I was an Alex Maskeoli show, and they had the founder Yanni on and he was given a pretty great example of why he created Ave and what it's supposed to do and how safe it could potentially be or actually is. And he's a very reserved and more of a conservative type of person. So I was like, you know what, that sounds pretty realistic. So I was just perusing through my email as I usually do. And I got this email from Glassnode. Glassnode is their data analytics type of firm and they put together or compile a lot of great information. And one thing they talked about was there was a there was a migration from the lend token to Ave. And what's going on here. So there was a very long email, but it was condensed into this little post right here. And the reason why I need to go over this first is because we're going to take a look at the ridiculousness of this market or what I think is ridiculous. When we talk about Ave's lend token spikes by over 21% after Coinbase Custody reveals exploring the Ave token. So to figure this out, we got to figure out exactly what Ave token actually is. So Ave, one of Ethereum's most popular lending platforms is currently migrating from their lend token to the Ave token. It's a new staking model promises favorable rewards for relatively safe investments. So what exactly is going on here? First of all, what's Ave? Ave is a lending platform. It's on Ethereum. It's open source non-custodial protocol enable the creation of money markets and users can earn interest on deposits and borrow assets. And it's the same type of thing we see on different platforms such as things like Celsius, which I love the death, and then BlockFi and things like that. But Ave enables users to lend and borrow a range of Ethereum based crypto assets borrowers can choose from either stable or variable interest rates. And again, they're very conservative. And the reason why is because they're a lot more safer than some of those things out there.  I don't know if it was that high, but it's pretty high. That's just seems unrealistic and unsustainable. And here I can see these rates. I'm like, okay, great. First of all, they're better than the bank. They're better than the bank. I'll take that.  So why not? Anyhow, moving down, this was interesting. Ave also offers uncollateralized flash loans. So so loans that are collateralized, you know, you want to borrow $100,000 like, great, we'll give us $150,000 worth of Ethereum. And that's how that works. But they also have these flash loans, which are uncollateralized rate switching and unique collateral types such as LP tokens, as well as insurance via Nexus Mutual. And I was like, well, how the heck does that work? So I went to their website, ave.com forward slash flash loans, and it just pretty much lays it out. What's the flash loans? Well, no collateral is needed, provided that the liquidity is returned to the pool within one transaction block. If this does not happen, the whole transaction is reversed to effectively undo the actions executed until that point. And there's documentation to take a look. So again, I'm looking at this, I'm like, I'm not totally familiar with what's going on here. What I need to do is ask Yanni to come on the, on the show and just kind of break it down for me because I get a little confused. It makes sense in principle, but, but the whole thing of like, well, why would I do that? Anyhow, so this is the big thing, token migration, lend to Ave. So the protocols they have token lend was launched in November 2017. So, you know, three years ago or so, token was initially designed to provide holders with discounted fees with plans for eventual staking and governance functionality. However, if the recent approval of the first ever Ave improvement proposal, that's what's great about this, you know, we have the power to go in there and vote on the things that we want to do if you're a holder and just say, you know what, we want to go from lend to Ave. And that's how we want to do it. The protocol is deprecating or phasing out the lend token and encouraging holders to migrate to the new Ave token. The migration is being executed at a 100 to 1 ratio, meaning that it takes 100 lend to be exchanged for just one Ave. And that's what they want to use one Ave. The total supply of Ave will be 16 million with 13 million being minted for the migration and additional 3 million being allocated to the Ave ecosystem reserve. Remember that one part again, the total supply of Ave will be 16 million. When I see a low cap like that, I get a little excited because I'm like, you know what, this isn't 100 billion. This isn't 300 billion. This is 16 million. And when you have that few of tokens and you have that token and, you know, the top 50 or so, what could happen the next bull run? I don't know. Anybody's guess. Yeah, moving down. The migration went live on two October at present less than two weeks. Over 70% of lend tokens have been voluntary migrated to Ave. As the migration takes place, number of addresses holding Ave is increasing rapidly. However, it currently sits at around 2,200. So this right here where it has the actual blue line, this is Ave. And of course, this is lend. And right here when we went live on two October, just take a big dump. Not a big dump. But I mean, the addresses went down because people swapped more for Ave makes total sense. Anyhow, the Ave token is the new governance token of the Ave protocol. Let me read that again. The Ave token is the new governance token of the Ave protocol. Migrating from lend to Ave allows users to participate in protocol governance and stake their Ave tokens. So moving down, potential returns Ave staking rewards currently around 1.73 million Ave are staked in the contract as such user staking 22, roughly 22 Ave, about $1,000 worth would receive 0.0051 Ave per day, a daily return of 0.023. So not too bad. If you compound that, if we assume that the price stays constant and staking pool grows, only by newly added $400 Ave per day, the result is an annual yield of about 8.5% or $84 per around $1,000 investment. So again, way better than the actual banks will ever give you. Well, this may seem small in comparison to the liquidity mining projects popping up in the DeFi space. 8.4% is a healthy way to return for a relatively safe DeFi investment. That's the big thing, safe. So how much risk do you want to put in? I mean, if you really want to do a lot of risk, there's a ton of risky projects out there, go right ahead. You know, have a great time. But for me, I'm just about chugging along just about putting a little bit in, getting a little bit out, a little bit in, a little bit out. And then over time, that's the whole beauty of compounding interest. So yes, there are massive gains being made.  To finish up, it states it's likely that more users will stake their Aave over time. And as such, the actual API may be lower than this figure. On the other hand, if the token prices increase, annual yield could actually end up being higher, I think much higher than 8.4%. And then it talks about how to stake Aave. And before I talk about how to stake it, I just want to make mention one thing. There is a 10 day cooldown period when you're staking. It prevents sudden unstaking in the event of a shortfall or significant price mute movement. And that's the whole thing of staking your tokens. Because you're saying, hey, I have confidence in this project. I'm going to stake my Aave tokens. And you can use them up to, I think it's up to 30% of the tokens you actually put in. You know what, come to think of it, Stani actually answered that in the interview that we had on Alex Maskeoli's show. So let me just jump over there and show you exactly what he said about governance tokens and printing and how it all works. Let's go back to what you originally said. And you had talked about the governance token being Aave. And it seems to me, and then you said like, if there's some type of event of a windfall event where you have to cover some type of losses, then it's the governance token gets hit and it could be slashed by up to 30%. So it sounds to me like it's kind of like community insurance, where everybody puts their money in and something bad comes happen. Like, hey, everybody, you get hit for one third. I think that's kind of how it is. Okay. That makes sense. The next part you talked about, what you said, if it goes beyond that, let's say it's a Black Swan event and something just falls to the ground. Now you have to do some type of printing. So how much and what is the max amount of Aave that you could actually print in those situations? Or is it unlimited, like the Fed? No, not like the Fed. So basically, speaking, there's no cap on how much you can print, but it's more about the governance, how they decide. So what could be the maximum that you could do? And I think situations where you can print unlimitedly will not be, in any case, sustainable. And also, the governance can also update the smart contracts in a way that, let's say, they want to put a cap at some point. And currently, there isn't this kind of like an ongoing inflation, which for example, Ethereum has and Bitcoin used to have, which is interesting model in some cases. But I think the coolest part about the Aave system and the smart contracts and everything, and being a governance token, is that it's all up to the governance. They can decide whatever they want. They can come together and they don't need to listen to the team. They can build their own things. They can create a, they control the Aave treasury. They can give grants, get more developers to build things. And it's kind of like if you look at Bitcoin and Ethereum, how many people are contributing into the software? And we want to achieve the same that there's like, I could imagine in the future there might be even a couple of hundred developers who have left their footprint into the Aave protocol. And that is like what we are trying to achieve that anyone can contribute. And token holders can decide whatever they want to do without actually team involvement. And I think when you look at decentralization, I think a project is decent when a community can make a decision that might not be favorable for the founding team, but it passes. Then it shows the strength of the community actually in that sense. So it's interesting to see how governance tokens will play out. So to stake, it's pretty simple. You just go to app.ave.com. I want to put that in the description below and you just go to staking right here. And you see how my ether wallet is already connected to the website. It doesn't automatically, especially if you have rave, it's super simple.  And then here, of course, is the cool down. And that's pretty much it for that. And that's, so that's the first part of it. Now we're going to talk about a little bit of the craziness of the market, which is I, Aave's lens spikes by over 24% of the Coinbase custody reveals exploring Aave tokens. So what is happening? And it talks about with a total value locked of one over one billion, Aave is currently the fourth largest DeFi protocol, which is pretty amazing because it's so safe or safer than most I would say. Aave recently secured 25 million from investors blockchain capital, standard crypto and blockchain.com ventures. And even with all this great news, it failed to raise the price action of the popular DeFi token. So that's just it. Like you have this like positive fundamental news, we've got a, you know, an influx of money. So, you know, we should be doing pretty better. We'll see how that works in the price. Nothing. But you know what does move it? Coinbase. So the latest spike materialized just a day after the news of Coinbase custody's announcement of token listing came out on the 17th of October, which was yesterday. Yeah, yesterday. Coinbase custody, which happens to be one of the world's leading crypto custodians for sure, announced its plans to support more assets and launch new features over the next coming months. Aave's was one of the 39 tokens that the platform was exploring, not that they're going to do it. They just said they're going to explore it. So what does that mean? We're going to explore this token. Okay, price goes up 21%.  Oh, but Coinbase. Oh, well, that's huge 21%. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. And then finishing up, it states it's important to note that lend is being migrated to Aave at the rate of 100 lend per one. So what's the point? The swap again on 12th of October. I think it's second of October. Hence the protocol is set to get rid of the very lend used to launch Aave into existence and convert of all land tokens at Aave at a rate of 100 to 1. So again, what's the point? It's just one of those things that I think in this market, because we were so new, we were so young, we're so minimized in the actual market cap, news really does play a huge part. And when we have a lot of news or positive or negative, it's ways the market massively. And one of those is token listings. I mean, even Coinbase, as much as I think it's becoming irrelevant, it's not because people still look at that and go, oh, they're looking into it, or it's going to be listed. And then boom, off you go. So this is the last thing I'll say about this. If you want to be ahead of the loop of all this different news that is coming out, so you can be like one of those people that learns about these listings or some kind of either positive or negative type of news event before most people do, then I did a video over at Dan Clips. It was Josh Frank, he's a CEO of the Thai and Alex Masquioi for Bequan Institutional Investments. And it's this guy right here. And what we talk about is just the data that you can use to actually get ahead in the whole game and get notified before most anybody does know it. So I'm going to have that pop up right now in the top right hand corner. So go ahead and check that out if you want to. And that's it for today. So I got to say thanks for sticking with me throughout the whole thing. I really appreciate it. If you like those types of videos, there's going to be two more that's going to pop up on your left and right. And I'm going to try to make one of them, the Dan Clips one as well. And that's it for today. Also, if you got time, usually I do a Theta livestream. And tomorrow I'm going to do a exclusive over on Theta. So check that out. The description of my Theta channel is in the description of this video. You can just check it out. It's underneath where it says Follow Dan. And that is all. So enjoy your Sunday. Appreciate you stopping by. And I'll see you on the next one.


let's get started. Thank you very much for joining us today. The idea of the session is that we can share with you a little bit more about a recent survey that the forum has conducted into the youth of ASEAN and the way that the youth is thinking about their future and particularly about the wider region, the ASEAN region, and what their views are towards the integration story happening in ASEAN, whether it's something they believe in, they think it's positive, and how that translates into policy priorities for government leaders and others in the region. I will be joined up on the stage by another two panelists if you like. The first is Nick Nash to my left. Nick is the group president of a company based in Singapore called Sea Group. It's recently rebranded up until last week. It was known as Gorina, but it's now known as Sea, and it's an IT company involved in shopping and online gaming and various other and payments, a whole portfolio of different internet activities. And when we did this survey, we actually worked in partnership with Nick and we used his online platform, which reaches almost 80 million people across ASEAN, so we thought that this was a fantastic way to connect with the youth. I think all of you are aware that the youth of ASEAN are increasingly connected to the internet. There's about 320 million people already online. That's growing by about 124,000 a day, so the online population is growing at an incredible pace, and so the youth in particular are connected, and we thought that this was a very appropriate way to reach out to the youth and to try to get their views. So we're very grateful to Nick and to Sea Group for helping us with that. Just a little bit of context to this survey. The World Economic Forum runs a group called the ASEAN Regional Strategy Group, and this is made up of 15 CEOs, 10 ASEAN government ministers, and some academics and other voices. And the idea is this regional strategy group, because it's made up of business and government and academia, it's a group that shapes the thinking at the forum about Southeast Asia and shapes our agenda and what we should be doing in the region, how we can use the World Economic Forum platform to try to do good things in the region. And Nick is actually one of the members of our regional strategy group, alongside many other business leaders. And one of the things that the group suggested we do is try to get a flavour of what the youth of ASEAN think, what are their priorities, and in particular how do they view the ASEAN integration process. And so that was the origins of this survey. We did it over the past few weeks, and we had a very good response. We've got nearly 24,000 respondents across six ASEAN countries, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam. 70% were men, but 30% were females, so not a perfect gender balance, but I think reasonably representative of both genders. And it was young. The typical age of the respondents was about 18 to 20, in fact, between 16 and 22. So it was definitely reaching out to young people. And I think what was important was that they had a mixed background. About half of them have a university degree, and the other half do not. So it's not only the educated, the wealthy or the elite, it's a much broader spectrum of people. So I think it is given the numbers there, truly representative of ASEAN youth. And there were some very interesting results that came out.  In fact, I think it's very unlikely you'll be able to see the slides. I mentioned the growth of the online population here, and that's clearly reflected in this set of results here. With so many people, so many of the young people moving online, it's unsurprising to see that they spend a significant part of their lives living through and on the internet. About a third spend more than seven hours a day on the internet, and more than half collectively spend more than five hours a day. So this is a generation really living their lives online and through digital platforms, which again, I think is another reason why we wanted to connect with them for this survey through the internet. So they live their lives online, and increasingly, that's where they get their information. That's where their trusted source of news comes from. And the chart on the left here compares old school media like television and print with new sources like Facebook and YouTube and Instagram and so on. And you can see that considerably more now get their sources of news from online platforms rather than traditional media. 63% say they get their news and information from Facebook. So clearly this region is transforming at incredible speed and embracing new forms of interaction and new sources of intelligence and information, and policymakers need to recognize and respond to that. We asked, we've sort of probed into this a bit further, and we wanted to find out how important it was for the youth of ASEAN to sort of keep up with information and to be connected globally. And I think that the results are very supportive of the view that they are becoming increasingly globalized. They are not thinking only in terms of their local community or their local country. They are plugged into what's happening at a bigger scale. And the charts you can see here show you that a significant proportion, find keeping up with global news, very, very important. And I think what's even more important is that many of them feel that globalization is a force for good. They feel that the flow of information and goods and people around the world is positive for them and positive for their society. That's obviously a different narrative to what you see playing out in other parts of the world. You look at Europe, you look at America, there's a lot of distinctly anti-globalization flavor feeling. But here in ASEAN, and I suspect in the wider Asia region, but certainly our survey in ASEAN suggests that globalization is still perceived as something that's beneficial to their lives and delivering positive change. So I think that was something that was perhaps a little bit surprised us, the positive feeling towards globalization. When we look at how they feel about their lives, I think another important thing that came out of the survey was a sense of optimism and positivity. Most people, most young people, feel confident in ASEAN that their lives will be successful. They look ahead and they see they have reason to be optimistic. They think that their lives are going to go well. About nearly 70% think that they can have a better life than their parents and that's always a traditional measure of rising middle class and growth in prospects and so on. Whereas in the West now, if you ask youths, you get a lot of them saying that they don't expect to have a better life. I think in ASEAN that optimism is still firmly in place. People do believe that the future is bright and I think that's very important again for policymakers and that they feel there's opportunities to make a difference and to improve their lives. So ASEAN youth on the whole is quite optimistic and I suppose you'd expect that to be the case given that it's a region of strong growth and reasonably good prospects. Then we went on and we asked youth about how they feel about ASEAN and this is perhaps I think where we were most surprised in the sense that there was very high levels of awareness about ASEAN and the ASEAN integration project. So 90% of the young people had heard about ASEAN, they heard about it from a variety of different sources from the news, from school, from friends and so on, but there was very high awareness and in line with that there was a very strong sense, a very strong belief that ASEAN was going to be positive for their lives and it was going to deliver positive change. So three quarters of people said that they felt that their country would be better off by being in ASEAN and furthermore we asked them whether at a personal level they felt being part of ASEAN was good and their two thirds said yes we believe that being part of ASEAN will make my career better and my job prospects better. So this is a very interesting result because I think there's a general narrative that the youth and the population generally in ASEAN don't really follow it, don't understand it, aren't really aware of it and if they are aware of it and not particularly positive but our survey suggests that's not the case, there's high awareness and people feel optimistic and positive about it. So if you're a policymaker and maybe in the past you've been concentrating on just raising awareness around ASEAN now perhaps it's a time to move from building awareness to action to actually driving integration at a faster pace and in a more meaningful way. Of course building awareness will continue to remain important but maybe now's the time to move beyond that and be a bit more ambitious in the integration aspirations. Just a few final things to mention we asked people whether they felt part of an ASEAN community, 70% agreed yes we're part of an ASEAN community, we asked people again linked to globalization how confident they feel to compete in a global world and the vast majority feel that they are able to compete. So there is this strong sense of being open and integrating with the world and particularly the region is going to be beneficial for them. I'll skip over this slide there is this is more about asking what do the youth use the internet for obviously shopping and information. The chart on the right there shows you that this asks about online or shopping habits whether you largely shop online or offline or both you can see that as this young population becomes more internet connected online and e-commerce is growing significantly and we're really at the start of that story as more and more people join the internet. I wanted to end just with a few more I suppose quirky things that came out of it. In ASEAN food is is always very important every country has its own food and every country is fiercely proud of their own food and rightly so ASEAN has fantastic food and we know that if you ask any ASEAN citizen what's their favorite food in general I'll always say their own food but in our survey we asked them to name not only their first but also their second favorite and what you can see on the slide here is their second favorite so it strips out the sort of the bias of of that choosing their home and there's a clear winner ASEAN citizens love Thai food they pick their own food as a number one but when picking a second food generally they will pick Thai of course in Thailand they have to choose a different one outside their country and there they choose Singaporean and that may well be that they love Singaporean food Hainanese chicken rice and things like that or it may well be that having visited Singapore they've experienced Singapore hawker centers which are very good and and have a whole variety of food so we're not sure exactly what that means but there's certainly I think some interesting interesting stories there that you can explore or could just be that Singapore has good Thai restaurants it could be that Singapore is good Thai restaurants yes and then the final thing just to mention we asked the ASEAN youth which countries they admired the most and in first place was Singapore second place was Thailand and in third place was Vietnam so some interesting results there and I think one of the things that we're hoping to do at for the ASEAN regional strategy group at the forum is to conduct this survey more frequently perhaps on a yearly basis and then we can track trends over time and see how perceptions around ASEAN and other things indeed change from year to year so that's just a brief look at the results let me hand over to Nick to share some of his own interpretations around this good morning everyone my name is Nick Nash I'm the group president of C which is the combined entity of the Garina entertainment platform Shopee for e-commerce and air pay for financial services it's our great pleasure and honor to to partner with my friend Justin in the forum to help do the survey and we've made a commitment to the forum to help with this on an annual basis to really track the growth of ASEAN's evolving consumer tastes and as important the the deepening we hope of the ASEAN interconnectivity I'll make two observations both of which are quite optimistic and quite positive the first is we share and cherish the observation that Justin has made about the optimism of Southeast Asia and it does in fact in many ways tell a different narrative than what is often described as a disillusionment perhaps among millennials and among generation Z quite the opposite I think there's a tremendous sense of enthusiasm for what the future will bring and as much so a sense of shared destiny and a sense of hard work that will be required to get there we find that very gratifying and I think very optimistic for the future I think secondly we feel that as Justin points out the time has now come to move from shared consensus building around ASEAN which is now mission accomplished to shared action taking and growth around what the ASEAN story and destiny means in a particular we would highlight the fact that in a world where the vast majority of young people seek to get their news and their shopping and their entertainment through the internet and mobile more specifically that probably has implications for economic structures and models whether it be ownership limits in different countries or the way in which trade happens it feels to us more and more that a shared ASEAN destiny is beginning with an online foundation and how we think about the way in which we support entrepreneurs the way in which we support economic growth probably has opportunities to adapt and evolve to reflect this wonderful connected Southeast Asian region so with that thank you again Justin for for your tremendous efforts on this and we look forward to doing this on a very annual basis I'd like to open it up to to to you and to see if there's any questions that you might have about the survey or the evolution even of of the the the online world in Southeast Asia yes I'm Silvita from BTVU so you are always you know the use of ASEAN in my Singapore Thailand and Vietnam the most why they admire those three countries the most what what what kind of thing they just looking for the food or study what what what kind of things well it's interesting we Nick and I were talking yesterday and we realized that in designing the survey we'd asked about food but there are indeed many many other things that we could have asked about which country do you admire for its manufacturing or for its fashion or for many many other things that and I think in future we will explore a bit more in detail some of the things that people do admire about different countries the question you're referring to was just very very top level which country do you most admire and we didn't ask them why we didn't ask which aspects of the countries they admire so trying to work out why they chose particular countries would be pure guesswork but in the case of of Singapore for example it's clearly been the most successful in terms of driving economic development it has the highest per capita GDP and so it may well be that you look at what Singapore's achieved find that admirable and that may be the reason but we'd be speculating because I don't actually know why people are making those choices Nick I think that's very wisely put Justin and perhaps it's a good encouragement for us a next year survey to add a few more questions around why they might feel that way but I would hypothesize that those three countries are also amongst the leaders in Southeast Asia in openness whether it's for tourism whether it's for business connectivity supply chain connectivity is in the case of Thailand so in many ways perhaps our youth are telling us something which is that they link respect and they link admiration to a degree of interconnectivity and openness at a country level and I suppose the more open a country is the more likely is that someone from a different country will have heard about you interacted with you know about you and so that openness creates connections understanding which may then feed through into recognition and admiration any any other questions yeah I am Jessica from eco business in Singapore I'm really curious about this part of the survey where you say there are opportunities for me to make a difference in my society as a publication that's concerned on sustainable development I would really be curious as to like what any details of what they mean by make a difference is that in support of for example sustainable development ASEAN or is it supporting responsible businesses in what way do they feel they can make a difference well the question again was was fairly open-ended it was but I think the idea was that we wanted to explore whether millennials feel that they should their their role in life their career their job should be delivering more than just a financial return to themselves should it be delivering a wider social return to society and you know we often hear from surveys in other parts of the world that millennials now feel that they should have more of a purpose to their job rather than just earning an income and we wanted to just sort of explore a little bit within an ASEAN context whether the use of ASEAN also feel that sense of purpose that they want to be doing doing good as well as as as helping themselves and I think the results suggest that that is the case there is a growing sense of community and the wider society and the fact that the use of ASEAN feel they should be doing work that has a broader purpose than just earning income I think that's that's well put and if you parse the question it says there are opportunities for me to make a difference in my society so effectively there's two parts that are linked together in an and statement one is there are opportunities for society to improve and there are opportunities for me to be a part of it and I think in many ways you're capturing some of the correlation to the fact that people feel more connected they feel more included they feel more inclusive about personally playing a role to make a difference rather than simply driving by every day and we found that very optimistic and very very very positive Do you do do you find that your business is growing at tremendous speed you're you're a new young company hiring young people do you find within your business that the people you're trying to recruit have that sense of purpose beyond just having a job it's extraordinary it really is and you know I would say that we feel blessed that in a time of peacetime there's never been a greater sense of mission orientation here in southeast Asia that's a great thing that absent some sort of dramatic crisis that's befalling all of us our youth have a real sense of purpose to to really improve the life for themselves and I'll share with you just one simple data point in our business which is you know oftentimes when we pay an employee a bonus or when their equity has achieved some degree of value over time we often ask them what do you plan to do with that and one of the most common things we hear is I'd like to buy a slightly better apartment from mom and dad and that just I think gets to the heart of the optimism of this region in a sense of filial piety but at the same time a sense of reinvestment in our communities which is very positive any other questions you'd like to put okay well let's wrap this up Nick thank you very much so we have a final one final question two questions perhaps my name is Jinpanyuan I'm from Pin and TV I have two questions first of all why do you select a sample from only six countries you exclude Myanmar Cambodian Brunei and the second question is that most of the youth in the survey they realize the news on for example YouTube Facebook website or Instagram and and do they mention how the reliability of the news that they got from those platforms because right now the trends of the fake news on online is keep increase keep increasing so so do they mention how they filter the news how do they think it is the fake news or it is the news that they should rely on yep um before we answer just to welcome Ibu Mary Pangestu to the to the stage professor of international economics at the University of Indonesia um I'm happy to take the first question yes please it's entirely my fault on the first one mea culpa because our business tends to have a greater concentration of users in those particular six countries and we felt that we would not be able to deliver a statistically rigorous sample group of enough scale to for the data to be meaningful to share with you in countries like Laos Cambodia Myanmar now we have begun developing a user base in Myanmar and I sincerely hope we'll develop you the two over time in which case we will be the first to offer that user base to Justin for future surveys what one interesting thing to add though is that although the respondents come from those six countries um there was one of the questions asked people what their nationality was and there was a significant minority of people who came from the four countries you mentioned that are not in the survey like Myanmar and Cambodia every night in Laos that were working in Singapore or Malaysia or Indonesia and I think it suggests that um there is already um in many ways a high degree of cross cultural integration you do have many ASEAN citizens working in other countries that are not their home country um and obviously that's much more the case in some countries than others but the results uh if you look at for example the people from Indonesia they're by no means the respondents are not all Indonesian there are many other ASEAN nationalities working there and that's the same across the board so um we can't we there weren't enough results to be statistically significant for those countries but there were and many of them working in the in the countries um in terms of the in terms of the the fake news um I don't know if if Ibu Mary whether the question is that the ASEAN youth of today look to online sources for their news and their information like Facebook and Instagram and YouTube and so on and um questions around whether that's reliable and whether that could lead to some issues in ASEAN that we see in other markets where the the trust associated with news um is is being eroded yeah I think the issue of uh where youth is getting their information was actually one thing that I had in in we had in mind when we were doing the survey and uh similar surveys of millennials in other countries have shown that uh what they do is they tend to visit sites which reinforce their view you know so the the question being you know are we seeing a generation that does is not open-minded and not knowing what else is going on in the world just because they're visiting sites which are only what they like and what it reinforce their view and I think there was a question on that I can't remember I remember there was a a question on that uh and I think it was like the quite a high percentage visit sites which reinforce their or what they're interested in what their views are and and that it's not so much about fake news but about you know the the ability for you to to be open-minded and and know uh the other the other side of the of a debate you know say like globalization for instance what was the half yeah yeah on half is it 46 46 percent uh exposes me to a new idea which is much higher actually than what they had found in the us or europe you know uh so that's good news so we are we are more open-minded so I think the way to to address fake news is your ability to be able to distinguish right which sites are actually delivering the right uh information uh and that your ability not to just go to the sites where that's finding to reinforce your views but to look at other sites so maybe that's that's a short answer to that and what we find is a practical day-to-day level is that an online piece of news whether it be a video clip or a small article or whatnot often is followed by a comments section so many people spend as much time reading the comments as they do the original piece which gives them a sort of sense of crowdsourced footnoting or on what may or may not be accurate or what may or may not be established fact yeah um unfortunately we have

I felt like it was hard because it was the hype versus the chill, so I was like, fuck, how am I gonna do this? No, I'm just thinking, like, Loki, if your voice was changed, like, no, if you wrote them lyrics to the Lil Yachty, I would think, if I had auto-tune, but I would have thought this was actually, like, if I had auto-tune, I would have thought this was Big Yachty, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. I don't know, but he get my vote. But it's up to Cameron, too. Hey, for me, between Lil Pump and Lil Boat. Time out, cause y'all didn't explain my part, y'all didn't explain his. No, he did good, but I feel like you was, I know, Sam was, I didn't hear from him. Okay.  For you, I feel like you said the right lyrics Lil Boat's supposed to be saying. And you look, he had the right tone and the right everything. Yeah. Like everything, other than your voice, but you can't change, everything else was perfect.  I don't think it's that, I feel like, but everybody knows what these people talk about. Yeah. Well, whoa. I know what you're talking about. Like, you don't have to listen to Lil Pump to know he's talking about sipping and leaving their fucking, like, bitches. I was talking about Gucci gang to make him my friend.  Like I said, I didn't say you did good, though. Cause I, you gave some good references.  You always start off with you. I mean, yeah. I like it. It was still good. Like, it was still good.  And he was like, Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang. Like I said, your stuff was good. Like, those stuff were probably better than his Playboy Cardi. Yeah. It was probably better, it was probably better than my young thug. But I think his loyalty was probably one of the best things anybody has done. Like, it- No, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was. It was, it was, it was, it was, it was.   You just don't understand what you're saying? Yeah. I don't know what that nigga's saying. 2.2. He's talking about 2.2, 2.0, Zoey 101. I don't know what he's talking about, bro. Bro, it's. So, is he your boat too? Yes. All right, Jared. You ready to go punish him? Yeah, I got it. I wanted to go with that. But if you didn't want to wear the diaper, you would have just been like in the beginning and be like, nah, just let him do the challenge. You would have already won, you would have already won. You would have been safe. All right, y'all, we'll be back with the challenge. You know what I'm saying? Yes. All right, y'all, so, oh, damn, it's bright. We outside, you know what I mean? Ooh, oh, hold on, wait, it's golden hour for Cam. It's golden hour for Cam. Oh, take it off, though, but look.

The challenge of the Yukon. A king on your maramute! The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the challenge of the Yukon. Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest Mounted Police. The preserve law and order in the new Northwest country was agreed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog King met that challenge and justice ruled triumphant. Sergeant Preston had been traveling north with a man named Conway when a blinding blizzard hit with stunning force driven by a whipping wind. Preston had made a shelter by breaking through the icy crust of a large drift and scooping out the light snow until it was room enough to accommodate the two men and the Leap Dog King. It was snug and warm inside the house of snow and both men were soon asleep. King lay for some time with his nose pointing toward the white wilderness beyond the small entrance. The hull of a wolf was audible above the wind. King whimpered and nuzzled Sergeant Preston. What is it, King? What's the matter, boy? What's the matter, Preston? King worked you up too, Conway. Is anything wrong? I don't know. King seems to think so. Listen to that wind. Just a minute. King heard something out there in the night. I'll stick my head out. Still snowing? No, the snow stopped. Quiet, King. I want to listen. What the... King! What was that, Preston? That was a wolf and King's going to meet it. Give me that rifle. If you're going out, I'm going with you.  After boating from the shelter and streaking past the sled dogs, King dashed through the snow toward the prowling lurking creatures that he knew as enemies. The huge wolves had been circling slowly and cautiously, closing in on a dark furry form that lay on the ground. As the great dog charged, the leader turned beneath the challenge. The sound of the wind was split by snarls and growls of fury. Cruel fangs were exposed as snapping jaws tried to grip a vital spot beneath King's heavy fur. The wolf pack moved near to leap on King when he fell. It was a struggle to the death with the odds against the dog, but King had man on his side. Sergeant Preston followed by Conway, struggled through the knee-deep snow to reach the churning mass. Hold your fire, Conway. You might hit King. You can't count dog from Wolf King. This way, King. Give ground. He's breaking away. That's it, boy. All right, Conway. Let him have it. They're running. All those wolves won't stand up to gunfire. Thank goodness for that. All right, King, old boy. Doesn't that dog know when the odds are too heavy? There now, King, old fella. You crazy. I guess you count on a little help for the fight went too far, I guess so. Preston, look over there. Huh? Something on the snow. Come on over. Whatever it is, the wolves were after it. Might be, old wolf. They'll turn on their own kind, you know. Yes. Can you make out what that is, Conway? Not yet. It's an animal of some sort. About the size of a large wolf. Seems to be. Conway, great Scott, look here. What is it? A girl. A girl? Incredible. Her fur coat. I thought she was an animal. Is she alive? No, she's breathing. I'll have to get her to the shelter. Look at her tracks, Preston. Traveling on foot. Not even snowshoes. Coming from the south. We can make room for her. I'll carry her to the shelter. Can you manage her a little? Yes, she's not heavy. I'll walk ahead and break the path a little wider. I think if this girl lives, she can thank you. Just swallow a little warm broth. Can you hold that cup for you, Sergeant? No, I can manage. Thanks. Just hold her head up a little. Yes. There. I wonder who she is. Don't know. That isn't too hot, is it? No. Her eyelids are flickering a little. She regains consciousness and tells us where she was going. Take it easy now. I'll try to swallow. You're all right, young lady. Easy does it. Swallow this if you can. I... I... I was trying to speak. I... I do. What did she say? Did you say la-doo? Pierre. Pierre la-doo. Now, now, hold on. You'll be all right. Has she lost consciousness again? Yes. She mentioned her name. La-doo. Pierre la-doo. Do you know who he is? He's a trapper and has a cabin a few miles south of here. Maybe the girl was trying to find him. That's possible. Now, we've got to take her somewhere to better shelter and more warmth. She can't stay here. We might continue north, Sergeant Preston. Now that the storm has died down, we can possibly make Burnett's trading post. I think we'll do better to follow the girl's back trail. We head south. We'll reach La-doo's cabin. Oh, very well. I'll see if she'll take some more of this broth while I harness the dogs. Al Conway rode the runners at the sled. Sergeant Preston jogged alongside on snowshoes. The mystery girl, still unconscious, lay heavily wrapped in blankets as the dogs maintain the steady pace over the moonlit back trail. Preston. What is it? I think the girl is moving. She is? Looked like it. I'll move up alongside and see. Her eyes are open. She's conscious. Good. Well, hold a minute. Hold on. All right, King. Steady boy. My name is Preston. How do you feel? I don't know. Where? How is she? She'll be all right. When we found you, young lady, you were asleep in the snow.  Yes. Wait. Well, of course. Now, don't try to sit up just yet, young lady. What? Let me look. Preston, if you ask her about La-doo... Wait a minute, Conway. I've got her bearing. She's looking all around, yes. Over there. That light. It's just a northern light. They're behind us. You're traveling soft. Oh, yes, we're following you back. Oh, no, no, no, you can't. You can't take me back.  Burnett kept lights burning all night, so his trading post, located where Arctic trails crossed, might serve as a beacon for travelers. The hour was late when two men entered, slammed the door, and stamped snow from their feet. Hey, Burnett, you here? Moosh Martin. Howdy, Burnett. What are you doing here? You don't look glad to see me. Dave, she can't with my friend, the Hawk Peterson. All right. Hope you don't mind if I decline. Huh. It don't matter. I can't turn a man out in the night, Moosh, but I can refuse dealing with him. You know where to bunk? Get out first thing in the morning. Now, hold on, Burnett. We didn't come here to bunk. We're here on business.  You and your pal La-doo have done too much stealing and killing to get your furs. You'll do business tonight. I tell you, better wait, Burnett, until you find out what Moosh has got to sell. I don't care what it is. You will. Open that pack, Hawk. Right. I'm going back to bed. Better wait, Burnett. What?  Maybe what you see here will show you there's no use waiting all night. Take a look. That's it. A girl that carried this here rifle might have some trouble getting home. That's my daughter's right. Yeah, we thought it was. That's her name. Marie Burnett. You burned it into the stock yourself, didn't you, Burnett? Where did you get that rifle? We, uh, got something else here. Maybe you'll recognize the writing on this slip of paper. I had daughter's handwriting. Martin, where is she? What have you done with it? Well, this here is a list of things she bought when she was in Pine City. She had all these things on her sled when we saw her.  Now, Burnett. Yeah, like I said, we came here to talk business with you. Where is my dog? Take it easy, Burnett. Your daughter ain't hurt. You captured her. Burnett, for some time, you've been talking about selling out this trading post so as you could take that girl to the States. You tell me where my... You're selling out and leaving right now. You'll meet the girl on your way south. You'll pick up the sled and dog team she's got with her and keep traveling. We'll buy up this trading post. That's a business we came to take care of, Burnett. I've already made arrangements to sell the post. You can forget any other arrangements, Burnett. We've got legal papers right here. Well, you have to do sign them. And if you don't sign them, Burnett, you can guess what'll happen. What do you aim it to pay for the trading post? It says right there, one dollar and other valuable consideration. What's that mean? I guess you figure the life of your daughter is a valuable consideration, don't you, Burnett? You dirty, sneaky... I never mind the talk. Just let us know if you figured to sign that bill of sale or not. Yeah, make it fast. We're late already on account of the blizzard. We've got to get back to... To where? To where we're going. Otherwise, the rest of our outfit might think that you shot us or something and get rid of the girl so the law couldn't act. Well? You're going to sign? How do I know you'll keep your word? How do I know Marie ain't dead right now? She ain't. You can take our word for it. Your word. Make up your mind, Burnett. We'll get the signatures of the witnesses later on. Someone's coming. Well, look out the window, Hawk. Is her mood light enough to see? It's a moldy. Preston. Give me that bill of sale, Burnett.  Me and Hawk will wait in the next room. Now get rid of that moldy. Come on, Hawk. Come on in here, King. Oh, hello, Sergeant Preston. You're up late, aren't you? Oh, yeah. It was just about to turn in. Quiet, King. Anyone here? No, there ain't. No? Oh, them. Them wet footmarks on the floor. And the snowshoes at the door right before I kicked mine off? I was out for a little while. Oh, I see. Try now to couple a pair of shoes, snowshoes. And by the way, I was thinking about... Take him, King. Wait! I'll take over, King. You're covered. Well, King, I thought you were smart. Jerk can open the door. Tank spotted you as soon as we came in. Preston. Well, Burnett... Drop your gun.  Lower your gun or King will charge you. Don't do it, Burnett. You know what you got at stake. I know. I'm sorry, Preston, but you got no cause to rough those two men. Moose, Martin and Hawke? I've reason to arrest them. No. I'll lower that gun. You don't understand. I can't. Marie told me about these men. She was held in the do's place. Captured. Well, they came here. What? He lied. Tell that to Marie. She'll be here in a minute. Here? Yes. You can hear the dog team. John Conway is with her. Conway? The man who's going to boy your trading post so you and Marie can go to the States. Now, wait a minute. Hold on, Burnett. Don't lower your gun. I'm good, Moose. You and Hawke are finished. Marie escaped from the do. Oh, no. Marie. Marie, you're safe. Well, Preston, well, you got your men. King got one of them. Yes, King. The case is closed.
