All right. It's very interesting that a talk on edge computing is placed at the very edge of the keynote session. But I can tell you, it is the next big thing. And it is going to be a 4 trillion economy by 2030. That's four times bigger than cloud computing. So if you miss that first wave, here's your chance. So what I'm going to do is, in the next five minutes, tell you why edge is important, what is edge, what are the killer apps that go with it, in which vertical markets, and then, of course, what Linux Foundation is doing to enable the edge from a unified open source perspective. Let's start at the bottom here. There is a convergence of five technology elements that is driving this edge compute phenomena, right? There's 5G. For those of you who know 4G, 5G is bigger, better, faster, lower latency, all that good stuff. But the fundamental reason why edge is relying on 5G is because of low latency. The second is microservices. So this is where applications can be written and portable through containers in any environment. Right now, the only portable app that we know that can be taken across the globe is a cell phone. You cannot take any other app, physical or virtual, across any of the limits. So that's very important. AI at the edge is very important for predictive maintenance and analytics. And it's matured enough, along with a whole bunch of hardware and, of course, the last piece of the puzzle is on demand network that Jim was making fun of or talking about. What these convergence of five technologies bring is it brings a whole new set of applications for the IoT and analytics systems, for immersive experiences like VR, AR, 360 video, for autonomous devices, drones, cars, et cetera. And essentially, these are the apps that are going to take advantage of the lower latency and accelerated processing at the edge. So this is why this is so exciting. Of course, like any market, what is the killer app? Where do I make money? And it's early in the market, but if you were to summarize and ask me what are the factors that determine the app and the nature of killer apps, it is non-traditional video. So it's not the YouTube's. And anything that is connected that moves, but is not a phone. Those are the big killer apps for the edge. In terms of the markets, the verticals that are dependent on the power of edge compute are written in this slide. And by the way, they are in a linear order. Industrial manufacturing is the highest, followed by energy, oil and gas, commerce, retail, home, automotive, and fleet, and transportation. The others are important, but there are policies and regulations that will slow down the adoption. These markets are already participating in the communities to drive edge computing closer to their apps. The next question, what is edge? Where are the edges? And this is a very simple diagram, left to right. On the top left, you have the on-prem enterprise manufacturing, building, hospital, you name it, edge where there are devices and connected things. On the bottom, we all know that that's the house, home. That's the home edge. One hop in is the base stations from a telecom perspective brought into a telco smart central office. And then you move into a centralized data center like an Amazon or a Google and all. The key definition that we believe that the community has embarked on is anything that has got proximity of computing storage, got a latency element to it. So 20 milliseconds or less latency response and an element of mobility is what is categorized as edge. So what are we doing? We're doing a project under the context of what is called LF edge umbrella. And it consists of five projects, two more in incubation, another 10 in pipeline. The projects are Eve. I don't have time in to go to all of them. But Eve is the edge virtualization that sits on the prem. The equivalent of that is the home edge as it connects all of our home into a classic API economy. And then there's a project called Edgex Foundry, which is kind of the anchor IoT framework. And then of course, a Crano, which is a telecom use case project, but also brings the end to end blueprints. These are the projects that make up LF edge. And when you put these projects in context of other open source projects and standards, here's how the world looks. You start off with the left. You've got projects like Oran, which is a telecom radio access network where 5G comes in. Then you have all the access projects. And then they are going to interact with a whole bunch of projects on the core, like Onap, which is the diagram you saw on the automation. Kubernetes, OpenStack, Acumos, et cetera. And then the standards that go with it are obviously on the right-hand side. Etsy, Etsy Mac, automotive edge computing. So this is where connected cars define the standards on how they're going to come in and interact with the edge compute. And then of course, IIC from that perspective. So to sort of summarize, LF edge launched just this year with the highest number of founding members, 60 plus, seven plus projects, 70 plus members growing very significantly. And the goal of LF edge is to unify the fragmented market where you have a cloud edge and an enterprise edge and an IoT edge and now a telco edge. How can I do a single framework with common APIs, abstracted connectivity, and standard life cycle management, which we also call plumbing? So if you're not part of LF edge, please go to the website, LFedge.org. You can reach me after this talk. We'd love to have you participate. And remember, if you missed the first wave of cloud computing, this is four times bigger, $4 trillion in 2030. So thank you very much and enjoy the rest of the talks. Thank you. Thank you.


think social media is really something that we can't escape and it's pretty much all around us and kids are engaging with it to a certain extent so it's good really to be prepared and to help guide our kids through it so like Siddhi Haroon said we also in our family did not our sons did not have smartphones in high school which you know they it was an agreement on understanding that we had and one of my sons said that in high school people used to be amazed by his flip phone because they didn't even know those existed anymore they would take pictures of his flip phone but when they graduated from high school they got an iPhone that was like our graduation gift to them so it wasn't something forever they knew that eventually it was coming but through the high school years they didn't have a smartphone my youngest isn't in high school now and he still doesn't have a smartphone he has an old smartphone that is at home on which he can what's up with relatives with the cousins but it doesn't have Wi-Fi access when he leaves the home once my our sons did get smartphones and they were on social media we had a discussion about it and one of the understandings we had in the beginning and this is not the case anymore my older two are in college they're independent we trust them to know the difference between right and wrong inshallah but in the beginning when they first started out on social media the understanding was that because we were paying for their phones and it was because we were paying for it that they had access to this technology that they had to agree to friend their mother on social media and also to to respect my husband isn't that much on social media I was on it more but the understanding I had with my sons and they agreed to it before they decided they were going to take on social media I we told them you can choose one at the time and they both decided to go for Instagram over Facebook and they agreed that if there was something that I didn't approve of of what they were posting or what they were clicking like on that they would respect their their mother's opinion on that topic so and then helping them figure it out because like when you're first getting on social media especially with young men you know clicking like on a girl's selfie they may think they're just being nice that okay somebody posted a selfie so I'm just gonna click like but then we would talk about the deeper layer discussion behind that that well what does it mean to click like on a girl's self-portrait right like would you be staring at a girl's face in real life and going you know I like the way you look or would you look away and have modesty and is it appropriate and also if any of their friends were posting about Haram things like friends from high school if they're posting about getting drunk or if people are posting pictures of themselves dressed really inappropriately is that something you want to be taking in on a daily basis that becomes your soba that becomes your companionship so having discussions about it at a spiritual level and getting them to think about how these things affect them but like I said my youngest is not on social media my older two do have Instagram and snapchat and we are not now monitoring how they use it it's there they're independent but in the beginning when they first started like right after they graduated from high school yeah there was oversight on our part so one of my sons was here actually at MCC and one of the uncles in the community approached him and he said I just recently became a parent and I tell me something that your parents did with you guys that you think was really really beneficial and my son was like I don't know I'm just a kid go ask my parents they're the ones again he was like no no no I want to hear from the kids perspective honestly just tell me the truth what do you think was one of the most beneficial things that your parents did for you while you were growing up and this uncle told me the the young dad told me that my son told him that honestly it was not allowing us to have internet enabled devices in the privacy of our bedrooms so that was probably the most beneficial thing that they did because I've actually personally witnessed what's going on with some of the people in my generation the addictions and the problems that they're suffering that their parents don't even know about so I thought you know it's interesting because at the time it might be painful and it might it's not fun and you might be the bad guy but inshallah inshallah one day your kids will thank you and hopefully you know they're gonna have all other issues they're gonna be dealing with with their own children but they're gonna see that you sometimes have to go against the grain of what everybody else is doing the other quick comment I comment I wanted to make was I wrote an article called how to protect your children from the P word I think I think that was the name of the article the editors chose the title so I sometimes have a hard time remembering titles of my own articles but how to protect your children from the P word and it's about pornography addiction and at the time when I wrote it I wrote it when my kids were still pretty little so a lot of the focus of the article was about prevention it was a lot of about you guys need to be aware about what's out there you guys need to be worried you need to protect your kids and the analogy I used in the article is that you have to treat the internet like a loaded weapon that the way you would treat a loaded weapon in your home is the way you treat the internet and you keep it under lock and key you don't leave kids alone with it you know where it is at all times anyway it made it onto a reddit thread and I once I was looking through the comments that people were leaving about the article and somebody left a comment saying this lady who wrote this article sounds like she's the worst parent in the world and what is she planning to do follow her kids to college and that kind of like took me aback and I you know there's a lot that we can learn even from our critics and I thought about why was that the reaction that this person had to the article and then there was a whole debate between the commenters and based on that person's criticism and what I realized was that that article so much of the focus was about prevention that it didn't at that time the focus because my kids weren't older wasn't really about how to navigate it once you are around it so those of you parents who are here whose kids are teens it's I think the time of like making sure they're not using the internet or don't have privacy with it is pretty much over it's really until age maybe 14 that you can you can even do that of the Hadith of Hazrat Ali Radi Allahu Anhu is just perfect where he said play with your children for the first seven years teach your children for the second seven years seven to 14 right and then be their friend for the third seven years so 14 to 21 and it's very true whatever you want to teach them you really have until age 14 after 14 it's pretty much maintenance you're just maintaining whatever you've taught them so what I was explaining about our kids when we gave them the smartphones when they graduated from high school at that point then it was just maintaining the above how to interact with one another on social media what's appropriate what's inappropriate what's not good for your heart to look at to be reflecting about what is it that my eyes are taking in and how is this affecting me and the last thing is I personally will admit that I have a social media addiction problem so I can lecture my kids all I want but I'm on my phone a lot looking at what's up looking at Facebook looking at Instagram so I personally recently made the decision to cut myself off from Facebook and Instagram for 40 days because I was told by a sheikh that anytime you want to make something part of your nature you do it for 40 days and if you can do it for 40 days it becomes part of your nature inshallah and I've been going through ups and downs I won't lie it's I'm an addict I'm an addict and I have to admit that and my kids are seeing me go through that process my my son was looking at his Instagram yesterday and I was like oh let me look over his shoulder and he's like no no no you you cannot be anywhere near this you're trying to quit this cold turkey you should not even be glancing at what I'm looking at but anyway you know our kids can also learn from our struggles to we sometimes focus so much on teaching them and lecturing to them about how they should be but we also have to look at ourselves too like what are we looking at all the time how are we keeping ourselves busy


Hey, what is going on guys? Welcome back to the YouTube video and in this video.  Don't ask why I have a new Buntu image already on new Buntu computer But whatever let's go ahead and create a new virtual machine kind of going in cold here But you know what I think we're gonna be able to roll with it. Let's find out That's the whole point of doing this it Had not been able to text it. It was Windows 10, but whatever. Let's see if it will now Yeah, 60 gigabytes is perfectly fine Memory we can probably give a little bit more I can give it like three or something like that Doesn't really matter Sure somewhere along there, and I want a bridge connection So it's like it's a real virtual machine a real real computer on my network and Then let's see what happens Oh boy, lots of VMware hours Avers Okay, cool. We're just getting a regular Windows interaction I can probably alt-enter here and then make it go full screen so we can get a regular Virtual machine full screen look like it's a real real computer going on and this pin at the very top. We may be able to Ignore close a library and will that go away? Will that thing ever go away? Whatever. I don't know All right, I want it to be in English because I speak English and I want to install now Cool. Okay unpinning it. I can not have to have that toolbar gone. I don't have a product key I'm just gonna use a kind of flat Windows 10 image without it being for realsies And Windows 10 home is fine.  I'll accept the license terms. I Totally read all this and trust it cool and then we can just go ahead and install Windows only we don't need to worry about any files or settings or application on this because it is just a Flat like hard drive that VMware created for us. We can go ahead and hit new on that hard drive space Perfectly fine for to do that Okay, I guess Windows just decided it's sure I'll run through and create all these partitions for you. That's perfectly fine And we'll go ahead and hit next Sorry, I'm not going through like in fine detail what every single button or whatever a single option does It's just trying to run through this you guys if you wanted to have this set up You could just as a Windows 10 image you can totally do this Obviously with just a USB drive if you wanted to make this install or bootable on Maybe like using UNET boot in a tool to make a USB drive bootable with an ISO Or Do this on a physical machine with a disk or to this in a virtual machine whatever the case may be You don't need to run through you don't need to watch. Sorry. You don't need it You don't actually need to look at the video for this installation process. So we'll go ahead and pause the video here Okay jumping right back in Should be installed now Windows needs to go ahead and restart Pretty easy And you might be like asking me like hey John Why the heck are you uploading the video on how to install Windows 10 when it's not too difficult of a process and I gotta say weirdly enough There are like hundreds of YouTube videos and just tons of YouTube videos where people are showcasing like oh Installing Windows 10 Okay, I guess here is my obligatory Windows 10 install video But I ran through the next button Chose a hard drive. There's simple enough easy to do on a virtual machine I'm doing this because I'm running window. I'm running Linux I do a bit Windows and Linux, but I like my screen recorder in Linux so much more than I do in Windows So I wanted to be able to use that but still record like Windows footage like actual Content programming software and stuff that's running in Windows, but I still want to stay in Linux So funky weird thing. I'll just use a virtual machine and Windows 10. It's easy to download easy to do and Through this installation video and through this process now it's going to be installed and accessible on my computer Okay, I paused the video for a second because a positive video recording because that getting ready screen took Significantly longer than I thought it would and now this black screen will probably take pretty long Just take this a long time to load. Oh It turns out it restarted again. Okay, whatever Let's just boot normally Okay, looks like we are back in action now Windows is still doing its circular spinny thing of death And okay, Cortana is here to guide us through this and she sounds pixelated and awful. Let's turn that down. Whatever Can I just do this without Cortana? Yeah, thank you. Let's go Okay, never mind still waiting. Oh, no. Okay. Cool. Yep United States. That's me I want to be the United States keyboard. Don't need another keyboard layout Um, can I use a wired internet connection? Whatever, I'm sure VMware will figure it out I am john totally type in my super secure password now And that should be able to create that account. Can I not do this? Can I oh jeez? I don't care about all these things I'm just gonna answer Doug for everything um Doug All right, cool. I'd never had to do that in a regular like windows setup. Whatever No, I don't want Cortana. She's really annoying I don't need any of these features Especially the ones that send basic diagnostic data back to microsoft Or a tailored experience to the things that I need or like Please stop. Please stop watching me Now we have our default windows. Hello Easy install Okay, fantastic after a lot of flashing blue screens and Lots of messages that let me set this up for you. It may take a couple of minutes. It's finally done So we've got a little windows command prompt. We've got A little bit of power shell Okay, cool. Not really what I wanted but whatever and we've got windows. Cool Now we can start to do nerdy windows things in this stuff perfect Cool. Thanks for watching guys. I hope to be releasing a couple more windows videos pretty soon Hopefully we'll be able to set this up now that we've got it running in a virtual machine and Yeah, I can be in both windows and linux do whatever I need to do and it's all good stuff. Thanks See you in a later video


There can be drastic disagreement in ideology and views on policy while both coming from a desire to benefit mankind. No, I agreed. Like I have associates that are pro-censorship, right? I sort of hesitated, hesitated there to call them friends. They are friends, but once you have a friend or a family member or a colleague that believes in censorship, they are walking the line of fascism, right? When the moment comes, they will turn you in to the gestapo, right? Because they believe in censorship, and if the central power decides certain thing should be censored that you may be doing, they will turn you in. They are the useful idiots, right? They are the brown shirts. They are the people that stood by and watched genocides occur throughout history, right? Or helped out the genocides. They are one step away from that, right? So as far as I see it, I don't care what your person's ideology might be. If they support censorship, they are on the same line for me. They support complete totalitarian fascism, right? And that is one step away from committing genocide. And internally, the German guy had a fantastic point. The German guy had a fantastic point. Julian Assange didn't agree with it. The German guy stated that once this capitalist power and paraphrasing capitalist power grows really strong, you will have any fighting within capitalist power, and they will destroy each other. Julian Assange disagreed with that. He said no, let's reach the point now that they can find a common ground and continue to maintain that power. We're seeing both things sort of take place. Right now in the United States, we're seeing the factions fighting amongst each other. Are they going to destroy each other? In some ways, yes, in some ways, no. There's a tighter control of the monetary policy. There's so much control in terms of economics. There is huge control in terms of censorship, but in the background, they are trying to take each other out. I hope they take each other out and we see them collapse. But I got a feeling they got access to so much data that when the collapse happens, because everybody's doing their things digitally, when it comes close to the time that the collapse is imminent, they will get together and build the power again. That's when we need the guillotines to go their way.


session on Wendridge oscillator and misses by the Higulkarni. Learning outcomes are at the end of session students will be able to analyze the Wendridge oscillator circuit. Contents are like this basic principle for the Wendridge oscillator as it is a part classification of RC oscillator it consists of the network two stage amplifier which provides 360 degree phase shift. Next output of this two stage amplifier is given to the bridge circuit which consists of RC network that is series and parallel combination of RC and two more RC network forming a Wendridge circuit which is used to stabilize the output of oscillator. This further is given to the input of two stage amplifier. So, here total phase shift of 360 degree is obtained with this two stage amplifier and will be maintained such that sustained oscillations can be obtained. So, Wendridge oscillator is a circuit which provides you the sine waves at the output with the frequency range of 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz. So, it is also called as type of audio oscillator. So, this is the basic block diagram of Wendridge oscillator circuit where total phase shift is obtained through the two stages of amplifier and bridge circuit is used to just stabilize the output. Figure 2 shows the circuit diagram for Wendridge oscillator circuit. Due to the thermal noise of the active and passive elements, noise gets generated in the circuit and that gets amplified and further given to the transistor Q2 which amplifies your signal as well as phase shift it with the 180 degree. So, this 180 degree plus 180 degree phase shift signal that is which is in phase with the input is provided to the bridge circuit. In the bridge circuit you can observe this is your R1 C1 series combination and R2 C2 parallel combination which gives the positive feedback nothing but regenerative effect and R4 resistor will provide you degenerative effect that is negative feedback which gives the amplitude stability to the output. So, this bridge gets balanced at particular condition and then you are providing this signal through this circuit and that is at the base of transistor Q1. So, we can say here Vf is given to transistor Q1 and V0 is given to the bridge circuit. So, here output of Q2 is feedback to the bridge circuit, R4 provides the degenerative effect, R2 provides regenerative effect which is in parallel combination with C2. C1 and C2 variations will give you the change in the value of the frequency. So, it will decide the value of frequency whereas R1 and R2 variations will decide the change in the range of frequency. Now, we will see the expression for gain and frequency of oscillation. So, here Vendridge oscillator circuit as R1 and R2 are connected in series. We can write it as R plus 1 by j omega C whereas parallel combination can be written as Z equal to R by 1 plus j omega C R. So, when your bridge gets balanced then its arm resistance will be equal to R3 divided by R1 plus 1 by j omega C1. This is equal to R4 divided by parallel combination of R2 and C2 that is nothing but R2 by 1 plus j omega C2 R2. After simplification or after cross multiplication and the simplification of the equation by separating the real and imaginary part you will get the equation like this R2 R3 minus R1 R4 minus R2 R4 C2 divided by C1 plus now the imaginary part that is j R4 by omega C1 minus R2 C2 R1 R4 omega. This is imaginary part of the equation that is R4 by omega C1 minus R2 C2 omega R1 R4. Now, when you equate this imaginary part to 0 you will obtain the frequency of oscillations for the Wengerges later circuit. So, here R4 by omega C1 equal to R2 C2 R1 R4 omega. So, we can write here omega square equal to R4 by R2 C2 R1 R4. So, we can say here the value of so, you have to take the C1 also to this side. So, you will get this omega C1 here. So, only omega over here. So, it will be C1. So, if you consider the values of resistance that is R1 equal to R2 equal to R and C1 equal to C2 equal to C then all these values will become same. So, you can write omega square equal to R square C square. Therefore, omega is what 2 pi f. So, f can be written as 1 by 2 pi Rc 1 by 2 pi Rc gain. How to obtain the value of gain? So, you can see here again look at the bridge circuit here as you know Vf is there at the base of Q1 and V0 is applied through C3 to the bridge circuit. So, as you know Z1 is the series combination of register and capacitor. So, it will be R1 minus j Xe1. Z2 is parallel combination. So, it will be minus j R2 Xe2 by R2 minus and Vf equal to V0 into Z2 by Z1 Z2 by Z1 plus Z2. So, beta is nothing but ratio of Z2 by Z1 plus Z2. So, here Z2 is minus j R2 by Xe2 divided by Z1 plus Z2. So, that is Z1 is R1 minus j Xe1 plus this is Z1 plus Z2 that is minus j R2 Xe2 by R2 minus j Xe2. So, here R2 minus j Xe2. So, when you simplify this equation and further you assume R1 equal to R2 equal to R and Xe1 equal to Xe2 equal to Xe. So, you will come across the equation for beta like this that is 1 divided by 3 plus j into bracket R by Xe minus Xe by R. Simply separate out the real and imaginary part over here and see here you will beta will be 1 by 3 plus j into bracket R by Xe minus Xe by R. So, if you consider the real part over here. So, you will get beta equal to 1 by 3 and the condition for sustained oscillation is Av beta must be greater than 1. So, Av should be greater than or equal to 1 upon beta 1 upon beta is 3. So, we can say here when voltage gain of 2 stages of amplifier is greater than 3 then and then sustained oscillations can be obtained. So, this is the condition for gain for Wendridge oscillator circuit. Now, recall a Wendridge oscillator circuit generates the oscillation only if gain of 2 stage amplifier greater than 3. Yes, this is the correct answer. Now, why is the negative feedback provided in the Wendridge oscillator circuit? Through the registers you are providing the negative feedback and answer is to stabilize the amplitude of output. Applications of Wendridge oscillator as it is providing the 0 degree phase shift through the bridge circuit. So, it is used for generating the 0 degree stable oscillator related circuitry. It is very good for the audios applications where stability of frequency and amplitude is obtained through the 2 stages of amplifier and the bridge circuit. It is used for the distortion testing in power amplifiers. Also used for excitation for AC bridge. It is very useful to fabricate the pure tune because it is a very special type of audio oscillator circuit. As we are using the bridge circuit over here it is used to measure the audio frequency of signal. References are like this. Thank you.

Item Number – SCP-314 Object Class – Euclid Special Containment Procedures – SCP-314 is contained at the location of its original discovery at Site 47, which has been built around the anomaly. Local personnel publicly operate under the guise of the US Forest Service. Although SCP-314 is highly mobile, it has never moved beyond a 50-meter radius of its origin point. The area delineated by this radius is known as the Red Zone. SCP-314 has created an equally large depression in the Earth below its origin point. All attempts to remove or restrain the object have thus far failed, but containment has been achieved by the construction of Site 47 itself, which is also used for various physics experiments regarding anomalous objects. Any experiments involving SCP-314 must be cleared by Dr. Williams. With the exception of approved experimentation, all personnel are to keep clear of the Red Zone. SCP-314 is highly reactive to all motion, with an approximately 52 meters of its origin point. After incident 314-0-E, researchers are reminded that the object's kill radius is approximately 50 meters from point of origin, and for purposes of safety, should be assumed to actually be 51 meters. Although safe interaction is possible at the outer edge of the Red Zone, and the object may even exhibit what the late Dr. Stratham described as playful behavior at that range, all action within the kill radius has always been met with violent reaction. Description SCP-314 is a 0.97 meter long 0.21 meter thick obelisk, which is highly reflective and metallic in appearance, with tapered edges that are apparently sharpened to a molecular level. No material has ever been recovered from SCP-314. The object is capable of levitation, an extremely swift motion, although it lacks any visible means of locomotion. Although research does not indicate any true intelligence, the object is most certainly sentient of its surroundings, and extremely reactive to any motions or vibrations within an approximate 50-52 meter radius. Analysis of rubble recovered from the ground below SCP-314's origin point indicates that the object arrived at this location sometime between 1975 and 1979, which is supported by pre-containment reports from civilians. The object emits no unusual radiation, safer of very faint sound which appears to be an anomalous broadcast of F-M, a local classic rock station. Comparisons between SCP-314's vibrations and the actual broadcast of F-M are identical approximately 85% of the time, although recordings from SCP-314 often include extra audio in the form of guttural sounds, snarling, and occasional commentary from the late DJ who passed away in 1998 and was not employed with F-M after 1983. Research Summary SCP-314 reacts to all motion within its kill radius by impacting the source of movement, although it ignores particulate matter smaller than 125 micrometers. SCP-314 will continue to react in this manner until the triggering object no longer moves, has exited the kill radius, or has been reduced to pieces small enough to be ignored. It displays unerring accuracy. No limit to its speed has yet been established. Current experimentation revolves around introducing multiple targets into SCP-314's kill radius at a time to quantify its method of identifying, prioritizing, and reacting to multiple targets. Multiple slow-moving targets are often struck down in order of their introduction to the kill zone, notably in a method which suggests that SCP-314 is anticipating further objects to be introduced.    Multiple fast-moving targets, such as bullets fired into the kill radius, can produce speeds from SCP-314 that exceed the sound barrier, or even create the appearance of SCP-314 existing in more than one location simultaneously. Experiment 314-230 flooded the containment room within Site 47. SCP-314 was able to strike at the encroaching liquid with such speed and consistency that it created an irregularly shaped dry sphere within its kill radius. The ground below SCP-314 remained dry at all times. In previous tests and accidents, SCP-314 has allowed liquid to fall upon the ground within its kill zone. When SCP-314 detects motion close to the edge of the kill radius, it moves in erratic patterns that observers have variously interpreted as threatening, graceful, or playful. These motions sometimes correspond to the individuals that provoke them, suggesting that SCP-314 may have some means of recognizing or remembering individuals, to whom it has previously been exposed. Containment Breach-712-21 At approximately 3.23pm local time, SCP-314 exited its previously defined area of operation, and cut through the walls of Site 47 before returning to its place of origin. No personnel were harmed during this event. This time corresponded with an off-site review on whether or not SCP-314 should be reclassified as safe. Whether this is coincidence or not is yet to be determined, but it clearly demonstrates that we do not know everything about this object or its motivations, or if it is capable of having any, classification remains euclid. Dr. Williams Lesson complete. If you missed the previous orientation, go watch SCP-313, powerful hand dryer, right now. Or for the complete course, watch this playlist.


In this video, we're going to look at how to show inequalities on a graph. They look like this. Before we start, you need to know how to plot straight lines onto graphs. So you may need to brush up on that first. Let's have a look at an example. See how the less-than or equal to line is a solid line, whereas the line that is just less than is a dotted line. This is easy to remember. Just think because the or equal to is an extra bit, it needs to be a solid line. It has everything involved. Whereas when it's just less than or it's just more than, it's missing the or equal to part. And so is a dotted line. It's missing bits. So looking back at our example, because x is less than or equal to 1, firstly, it's a solid line because it's or equal to. We then shade to the left of the line x equals 1. Because for x, we want everything that is less than 1. And then looking at y equals 3, it's a dotted line because there's no or equals to. And we shade everything underneath the line because we want everything that's less than 3. The area that satisfies both inequalities is this section here. So that's the region that we want. Here's two for you to do. Pause the video, shade the region and click play when you're ready. How did you get on? What if we have diagonal lines? We first need to rearrange the equation to make y the subject. Then plot this line onto the graph with a dotted line because there's no or equals to. Because the inequality is less than the line, we shade everything underneath the line. Here's one for you to do. Pause the video, shade the region and click play when you're ready. Did you get it right? We can even shade regions that are bound by multiple inequalities. Start by plotting all three lines onto the graph. Then do the shading. x is more than 1 is this way, y is less than 3 is down here and y is bigger than the line is here. The only region that has been shaded by all three is this bit. So that's the answer. Give this one a go. Pause the video, shade the region and click play when you're ready. Did you get it right? So there we have graphing inequalities. The only new thing to remember is that if the inequality is or equal to, then it's a solid line. However, if it's just more than or less than, so it's missing the or equals to part. It's a dotted line. It's missing part of the line. If you liked the video, give it a thumbs up and don't forget to subscribe, comment below if you have any questions.

Hello and welcome to the session. Let us discuss the following question. It says using binomial theorem indicate which number is larger, 1.1 to the power 10000 or 1000. Now to solve this we will be using the expansion of A plus B whole to the power n and it is equal to nC0 A to the power n plus nC1 A to the power n minus 1B plus nC2 A to the power n minus 2B square so on and the last term will be nCn B to the power n. So this is the key idea behind this question. Let us now move on to the solution. Now 1.1 can be written as 1 plus 0.1 so 1.1 to the power 10000 can be written as 1 plus 0.1 whole to the power 10000. Now this is in the form A plus B whole to the power n where n is 10000, A is 1 and B is 0.1. Now we expand this using the expansion of A plus B whole to the power n. So 1 plus 0.1 whole to the power 10000 is equal to 10000 C0 1 to the power 10000 plus 10000 C1 1 to the power 10000 minus 1 that is 9999 into B that is 0.1. Now we will go on expanding this using the expansion of A plus B whole to the power n and we will see that we will have some positive terms. So plus other positive terms now this is equal to the first term is 1 because 10000 C0 is 1 and 1 to the power 10000 is 1 plus the second term is 10000 C1 is 10000 into 0.1 plus other positive terms. Now again this is equal to 1 plus 10000 into 0.1 is 1000 plus other positive terms. In this whole expression we see that we are adding some positive terms 2000 that means this whole term or the expression is strictly greater than 1000. Hence 1.1 to the power 10000 is strictly greater than 1000. So this completes the question. Hope you enjoyed this session. Goodbye and take care.


This research paper explores the effects of mechanical force on breast cancer cells. It found that mechanical force can affect the behaviour of breast cancer cells by either promoting or suppressing their growth. Specifically, it was discovered that a certain level of force can promote the growth of stem-like cancer cells while too much force can cause them to enter a quiescent state. Furthermore, the researchers also developed an ECM signature based on the fibrinogen-fibronectin-vitronectin-galastin axis that can accurately predict patient prognosis in breast cancer. This discovery has important implications for understanding how mechanical force influences the behaviour of breast cancer cells and may lead to new treatments for breast cancer. This article was authored by Seung Lee, Choe Choe, Xiao Han Liu, and others.


Hey, folks Thank you for coming to my talk. I'm super excited to be a tree closure. I'm glad to be here with all of you be virtually though this year and I hope wherever you are watching from you are well and safe and Happy Today, I'll be talking to you about the labor of love Atomic it's taken the last two or so years of my life and I'm super excited to share it with you So maybe quickly about me. My name is Alex the Lou I work as a designer at the absolute bank Bank headquartered in South Africa will operate in the cost Number countries in Africa great place to work. They are look after the team about 160 people Design UX UI designers process engineers service designers and ops team Great bunch of people really into a working with them challenge me every day. Um, but Doesn't really have anything to do why we're here today Turns out after that job when I get home and the full moons out They develop developing me returns and that developer really enjoys closure and Yeah, you could call me a way developer And this is kind of how my my closure journey started It started, you know One job in there at the time it was lecturing and then writing code in in the evening But if we go back to how we got to this point, you know, I must say thought of the JavaScript, you know, and Jeff Jeff Adwords code always Makes me chuckle, you know any application that can be written in JavaScript will eventually be written in JavaScript and That's too true. You know, I I thought very nice You know in my JavaScript obsessed days, I I stumbled across OSJS, which is a UNIX type browser OS that runs in the browser written in purely in JavaScript um on OSJS you can play Wilkenstein um also written in JavaScript and at the time, you know, there was a single um computer board called the tessel Which you know similar to your Raspberry Pi type boards But was entirely written in or you write you you interface with the JavaScript Which is also cool. I think unfortunately discontinued um, but that was pretty neat and maybe you're more Familiar on to the folks folks watching um An nbb basically closure slash babushka that runs in in JavaScript. You know, so JavaScript really did Did take over the world for being honest, right? And at least for me, it was I lived and breathed All the things in my stack the front end the back end And my build tools or all JavaScript The one part that was not JavaScript and was Quite awful to be honest with actually interfacing with database It was always a mission and you had to find this library and it didn't work and this edge case and this bug I just didn't like it. Um I was liberated one day though by sales.js a really cool framework. Um It created a nice wrapper that allowed you to interact with the various databases in a Idiomatic JavaScript fashion and for a long time I actually used that um But when it took away my pain of working with databases The general pain of working in in in JavaScript remained and that's really is Tough agility and maybe it's just a way I write code Um, I mean my front end code is fine that that's what I've been doing when I really like enjoy writing JavaScript with front end But the node piece always felt flaky. It always felt like if you just looked at it the wrong way your back end would come crashing down um And so That's one of the reasons I probably ended up in closure But on the way to closure I discovered A new database that really Reduced the complexity and meant I didn't have to use a framework, you know to interact with my back end and that was Firebase and POS and uh You know both great startups at the time going head to head split the community which one was best um, and I remember in my mind almost Seeing this vision, you know two pop two roads diverge in the woods and I I took the one that's traveled by and that has made all the difference um I mean not given that I'm not biotomic. I mean, I'm sure you can guess it was Firebase that I chose um, and you know At the time, you know, it was At my own preference, but it was luck as well There's Google bought Firebase and really took them to the next level. I've been losing their spirit um Whereas pause was bought by Facebook and taken out back um and so so I really enjoyed this time, you know when I just discovered Firebase and life was easier and I could remove sales and to make my My code much simpler without the framework um But it was still JavaScript, you know on more than one occasion.  No flakiness at all um and You know the immutability at first really um confused me like how do I program that where all the data is Unchanging um But eventually I the penny dropped um and when the penny dropped then the atomic just Seemed like the obvious choice, you know, uh, what's all the articles that the blogs and the podcasts and the tutorials and um, I was obsessed and eventually You know, I love, you know what? Let me try out this uh Atomic and then I saw the price As low as $1 a day look Look before I got involved in the tech startup scene Um, I was marketing intern for a babysitting company and I can tell you as low as His marketing speak for you will never pay this price Always be higher. I was like nope And you know, what was really the final blow is I saw it run AWS and look looks I'm not the smartest guy But I do know I would know know my way around numbers You know and that AWS pricing calculator I mean Surely the phd to use that thing I was like this Is a surefire way To rack up a bull and just get hits with hundreds of dollars at the end of the month I was like nope not on my watch and so I said Play ball to the atomic And carried on using closure. It was robust.  So, you know, at least those are stability of closure in the old way to do Um, but then something interesting interesting happened was about Yeah, two years ago and just before covid um I went to closury gave a talk there about my journey about becoming a coach developer And it was amazing, you know to be in the conference in person I'm in Berlin for the first time We can be passing about closure and You know, it just fired me up.  It was glorious so I'm heavily introverted So being fired up from closure from closure d The lockdown and people not legally not being allowed to visit me I mean Great I could just write code day and day Obviously me still went to Still worked, you know And spent some time in my wife But really all the extra time apart from those things went into to writing writing There's a code and that's where You know this journey started um You know the idea of of being able to have a free and open source The atomic never never left me, you know, there's still something that is in my mind and um, when I came across data script It really felt like You know, this was the thing, you know, I could find a way to make this like the atomic, you know There are no bad ideas if you have the guts And the time you can do it and so when I need to documentation, I can't just listen function and basically it Will fire every time I turn that can hit a script and you could do something with this transaction um And I think it Transactions come in I serialize them store them And I want to rebuild rebuild my my state. I just read from them reverse chronological in chronological order and um There we go To the back sounds like I mean Pretty much the atomic I mean at time goes the initialization time probably just goes through the roof, but You know very simple solution to enter another machine, right? um And so I figured you know this kind of sequential stream of data sounded exactly like a job for Kafka Now, here's the thing folks You know The atomic looked like it could be expensive and aws might be expensive But for sure Kafka was expensive So I did what any reasonable developer would do any logical thing The only logical thing I rebuilt Kafka in five weeks. So I built fast. Basically, uh um the library that's modeled after the Kafka Rapper a pyre In inclusion basically same kind of interface same kind of A pyre that I've accepted ran on firebase and serialized up into firebase And I figured there we go so I hooked it up to The data scooped and transaction come in I'll send it up Send them out and I send them up and then when I want to rebuild my state I would just initialize and I could read them back and there we go I'd find a way to persistently store my data scoop bb Right, you know, but I want to stress this stress this thing, you know, don't want to go out then tell people try this thing out and then it just Comes crashing down. So you know what you want to do build, you know a map you know stored about You know 100 meg of data and about 10 times send it to the firebase and See how it's performed, right? It wasn't too bad to be honest. Um, I did keep on seeing like a A bottleneck, you know at around I think it was two megabytes a second I need to get some more power out of that. So I kept on trying many alternatives, you know, two short bursts of writes long writes um Well easily writing gigs, you know, just going and going and going and going um And then my laptop was really really hot Turns out continuous writing gigs of data um You know with your transaction transaction listener Probably isn't the best thing for more effective my laptop was hot Hit my wallet really hard turned out The free-ness of firebase is free within reason Um, it's that really hurt my wallet I'm probably more so than the atomic ever would Um, but there's an island so you don't have to um Then it got me thinking, you know what there's no need for me to You know start from the bottom I should really stand on the shoulders of giants and that's what I did, you know, I stumbled across data hike um, you know built by the folks at lambda forge um Data hike basically is is Datalog database starts with data Data script as well. Um, and three it's really underpinned by the hitchhiker tree, right? Um, the hitchhiker tree is an exotic data structure It's also cool And and it basically what I was looking for my basically an open source free free version of of the atomic Um, and so the journey began You know clone the repo and start going to the source code Um, because I mean I could learn this logic community if you wanted to know something about database or about a library Just read the code Definitely more to the point than the documentation if there is documentation anyway In that two things stood out Woodstrap because I mean any front end there surely knows the name bootstrap um But that wasn't relevant at this point and then I saw this file stopping. That's like interesting So if this thing can store to a file surely it can store To to file correct and so it's just conserve namespace and that took me to another repository by the same folks Um, and basically it was a t-value store that could run on any kind of back end um And I went through the read be line by line like we all do um and I found this single line right That it could connect to cart's db now in my Task updates that have a lot of database, right and I immediately remembered couch db was jason store similar vibe to firebase I'm sure we could use that to get to get done to firebase and so Luckily, I'd already written a library that connected send data to firebase, you know for firestream and I think let's try it out and so I built a I built a library that really It's a conserved library that writes This key value store or creates a key value store to firebase. Um And uh, the cool thing is in doing so I could now connect Data hike to firebase You know the only thing that was bugging me was, you know firebase has this Limit that the value has to be at least 10 at most 10 makes so I quickly found a way to split the To split the data came more and see the p0s will be p1 p2 and so forth and so They were good to go um We'll conserve ready I could connect to data hike and data would flow in theory from data hike into conserved into my firebase adapter for conserved and into firebase it was the perfect plan and We know what it worked out So let's have a quick look see like Jamie Oliver has prepared something so I can show you what this looks like Uh, so let's just spin up a ripple Over here on the browser you can see that's the firebase through some database. Um at the moment you can see there's nothing in this point. Um But let's first first as first as per usual we include uh See data hike and then we include um data at firebase and now those are included and then um Now so let me talk you through the content very quickly so basically um All data complex are similar, right? So you specify the store which is this piece here And the store has different properties um, so the back end here is firebase And then these properties here are basically the ones that come from the firebase implementation, right so The end of the key basically tells um Data firebase which environment variable to go look Which environment variable contains the um service account credentials This allows you to read and write into into firebase. So in this case it's called fire And we'll be writing to To um firebase with the root data hike reclusion, right as you can see that's where we are here awesome, right? So that's the config now if we try and connect that config What will we get We should get um An exception because as you can see the database doesn't exist. It's now but now we can create the database and There we go. You can see the data has been stored. It's been stored in that same format from the conserved because remember underneath the data hike Conserve is doing the Writing into the store in this case the store is firebase, but you could actually have a conserved store that That writes to postgres, which I also worked on. There's one that writes to redis um And so I think that's the really cool thing about conserved because it basically means you could build Uh data hype or the atomic like database on any kind of of um acid Um database, which is really neat, right? Um, okay back to our our Back to our rebel, right? So we've created our database now we can Connect right when let's keep our connection and then As is the custom once you once you've created, you know a data data log db The first thing is to write your ito schema and that's usually your first transaction And we write up there So name and age are basically the two identities Um or the new or the properties that you have in there Um and see that yellow here means that you know it's updated I mean you'll notice it's the most still no no data. So nothing more is out There's very little data. So you'll see that you know, basically we'll just see this for the most part I mean, this is just a super long string because firebase currently doesn't support um Unreal data. So this is a base 64 representation about the structure Anyway, now we want to transact We're going to add alice bob charlie and some unknown human who is 15 years old We pop those elements in there and see the number of data that have been created again, we saw the update over here and now um We can create a data right State without that and so there we go you know, we're looking for entities um The same entity we're looking for the name and age and showing them So you'll notice the nameless 15 year old is not shown because I'm the constraint of having a name Is not met so I'm the left out. So we only see bob charlie and alice But let's say we wanted all the entities and the ages We could run another query And there we go, right? so That's really that's really, you know, simple as that. I mean it looks like feels like smells like datomic No drama there at all and um As well, you mean you can delete the database So if we delete the database that we see and look disappears from Firebase And now what happens if you try and connect let us see If you connect Doesn't exist, right? So you can see it really is simple to use Very very straightforward and I mean with Firebase um Just a dream so, um We now have phytonc, right? Um The thing I really enjoy about this is that it makes prototyping really easy because it means you can prototype Um, many different businesses on the same same Firebase instance, you know, just separate databases or even just separate routes Um, so I can actually now use Detonement can lock or not the atomic atomic a lot more often Um, I don't really have to think about the cost at least not yet. Maybe someday if I build a business that's as terrible as data atomic enterprise, but That's a problem for another day Pretty mature optimization is the root of all you know Okay, so, you know, I showed you I took you through that. Um And so this is, you know Basically where we are, you know, so add the idea of what Kafka and Firebase at the atomic and Firebase Um, and sometimes I'm actually building a startup around around around this and using both these in production Um, so far so so good collected payments got data in there got paying customers It's really great. Um Which is also really cool because you know when you do open source stuff sometimes in these ideas Not something you'd bet your money on in this case, you know, I bet the money on it and it's working out Um, so that's that's really really fulfilling. You know, the the last two years haven't been erased Um, so you may ask, okay, what's next? Well, uh The folks at uh, you know, lambda for your work on data like server. Um, so at the moment, you know data atomic sit within my application So they like so we can actually have an external server similar to postgres or You know one go whatever Um separate running is on a server on its own um as an instance And then your application actually connects to that so, um So, you know, that's really what that will be the true phyatomic. All right, so, um Over the next 12, maybe not right now. Um, so finishing some work on another Project I'm working on and once that's done. So maybe February next year going to really look on data server and how I can connect that to Firebase Because once we have that, you know, you can really have a deploy to digital ocean and there you have phyatomic running and you can connect um All the applications.  I think, you know, in having this really audacious idea to to build, um You know Kafka on Firebase and the atomic on Firebase now I've learned a lot about about The workload to be honest and reliability and writing tests and I think if it belongs for these things, they're probably would be Much worse than I am um, so if you have any crazy ideas folks, you know, let out the crazy and And try them out. You'll learn a lot from the journey. I'd get burnt a few times, but you know that's life um So, yeah, so I mean here's some some some links that I think might be useful, you know the data I create for Eight up the folks are on on discord Very cool bunch of folks. Um It's very welcoming very supportive really helped me on my journey um You can check out conserve as well if you want to see a bit more about what happens Closer to the actual store um, and then some really cool videos, um One of them about Today's log in general by pthilus. It's a really great. There was the number of times that really helped we understand data log databases and then, um The video hitchhiker trees that one is I mean, it's kind of about my pay grade and really not like a computer science type, but Amazing video and really explained it well And hitchhiker trees are just phenomenal. So give that a watch and then Also stop by the lambda project site folks. They're doing really cool things In terms of data databases and making it feel available to the community and improving it. I mean they even got um They got closures together funding think last year. So definitely A great bunch of folks that's that are really driving the community forward. So give them a visit and you know If you see something interesting, you know, get a pull request contribute You know the the thing I really love about the the closure community is that You know, everyone pulls their weight um, so you know Looking at you to pull your weight too um And if there's anything you take away from from this talk, it's this Any application that can be written on Firebase Will eventually be written on Firebase. So Why resist start now? Uh, that's all from me. Um, thank you reclosure for having me. It's been great. Um, and uh, I'll catch you online Cheers folks


All right, man, this has been a long time coming Do you know how long I've heard about solo leveling and the manga readers of solo leveling and how they've been Fending for an anime adaptation like since I started watching anime virtually the ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the channel My name is Jack the bus and today we were beginning our reaction series to solo leveling with the I'm used to it I don't know much about this series aside from the fact that I think it's an isekai I don't know and I think it's like a video game of sorts. I I'm not gonna keep talking if this is wrong It just it just looks sad, but yeah, no nothing about it very hyped up We'll see what's in store if you do this channel makes you drop a sub it is free and let's get started three years ago It's like the guns. Oh, no, not the guns of the King Kong Island To those things like hi-ju oh Wait, there's like actual beasts that was like an ant. Wait, is this camera and man The armor kind of makes me think of like a video game low-key. Oh, there's like mages. That's totally a game, right? Oh my gosh We're under leveled oh The hard carry gums flying in he's a healing spell He's such a high level Beung-Goo does he have like a squad?  They're not giving me easy names to remember man.   Oh my gosh Guildmaster toy. Oh Toy kind of trippy, bro. He got that that suit at all. He's got fire Well, I feel like he should be able to like one-shot them I think our world's an alternate dimension Oh, so it's not a game What does this guy you rank No effort can result in greater strength, so you okay, you can't go up levels I'm gonna be honest. I forgot we were in a flashback starting on a flashback as whip lash man Okay, three years after the ant incident on this is a gateway. There's people that like team up and do raids Yeah, is he like high rank the weakest hunter of all E rank got him into a hospital. Oh no, it's so sad I Did what do you even fight in an E rank raid? I really want to see one Juhi Jin Woo Juhi I was the only one hurt. You don't need a healer in E rank dungeons Is this an E rank raid and they're just or just they're just assuming that it's weak cuz he's here Mr. Song I like the effects for like the portals to the other dimensions so they go and clear out monsters and leave Let's go song.  What are you just like manifest the powers? Did they say? I Sherman go There's no one paying him for just feeding the monsters is the resources inside The stone oh come on son he got one. Oh is that like a big big deal I guess it's a resource he can sell for money and a better blade. Come on son. You just got an extract now Oh What is she here? Oh Them are like doing it with the ease in the back. How did he even manage to get this one? This is going to turn a powerful weapons and gear. Oh, that's kind of cool. Damn. No wonder he was excited Manic crystals, but they're less potent the government. Oh, here we go a new powers Ah Interesting wouldn't the government pay a lot of money for them only hunters are able to collect them. Yeah Oh dang bro, they could be pulling the big box the enormous box as the dungeon boss Look at me. I'm on top of things. I don't even play MMOs. It's like real life with MMO sort of themes Oh my gosh, she actually healed them up, but he got a stone An e-rank essence. Oh, so the stones are ranks to their money is not as excited Oh a secret path Let's go Stick together. Oh wait for orders right here hunters association and think hunter hunter surely it's fine.   What is that? Black crystal people like recruiting for guilds. It's kind of cool. Dude. I want to see what like a high-rank looks right It looks like it.  Oh, that's Chahey. She's an S rank. Can I get a picture a 40-minute walk But the gate can close one of it closes while you're in it. Oh, she's a B rank. Yo, oh dang I believe it. He was like bleeding out basically They we speed running this love interest. It's impressive. Oh, oh, I would not go in there, bro The chairman of the hunter's association go wait the newly awakened. Oh, this is like an intake Still a great deal. We don't know about the dungeons. Oh, no can't afford to let their guards that oh, no Be afraid and these people are so casual. There's opening this gigantic. Oh, no How are you walking in?  He was punished. I don't think that means they're all inherently dead yet It was because he was trying to leave He's like i'm e rank. Yeah, no, he's resetting. They're just trapped right now They just have to hear out whatever is supposed to happen here They're all bosses Don't move don't move, bro For this life Yeah, once you get a get a run and they are able to actually buy gear He's never been able to get anything Oh, just like backstabbed random gobbins and stuff. Yeah, you gotta play it smart Dude, what are they supposed to do?  I want to see higher level fighters. I want to see higher level gear I want to know why this dungeon is like this and there's so many of these giant statues Ah the intrigue in 20 short minutes. That's how you that's how you start a show man That's how you started not to say it couldn't fumble or falter going here on out But i'm down with it so far. So I don't believe it's an isekai like I thought It's more like just a world where like, yeah, these dungeons exist and whatnot And I guess he's inherently going into dungeons and stuff, but that's still not an isekai It's more just like a fantasy But dude, they they've already sounded since he very well because he's very meek very mild You want to cheer for him and it did kind of speed run the whole like yeah I'm doing this for my sister and my mom because my dad left. Where's his dad? Probably find out like season six But either way I'm here for it's solo leveling quite the start man I like how they've already built up this world of like the the crystals and whatnot What you find in the dungeons and how these other hunters do keep it rolling once they have some And the juxtaposition of the chairman like in taking these new hunters and being like look, they're still we don't know There's still so much we don't know about these dungeons and intercutting that with this It's perfect because now every dungeon you we go into i'm going to be expecting like Oh, but maybe like this could happen or this could happen if we even make it out of this one But I feel like there's going to be some sort of secret or I feel like something sung is good at that is Compared to all the others like he has to have some natural talent or thing that he does better that that shows like his worth Or like he carries like put his own weight basically But it has already set up the world with like there's nothing you can do to get stronger in terms of ranks So like if you're just this rank, that's it. I guess I don't really know I think we're going to take more of the world fleshing out to understand it more And it's sort of just laid the groundwork guys that's been it for my reaction to i'm used to it That is a funny title now understanding.

Long have we waited for the fourth season of Stranger Things and now after finally getting a full-length trailer We know that the new season is giving us a new big bad We've had Demogorgon's demo dogs and the Mind Flayer just to name a few but something gives me the feeling that this is Hawkins Most dangerous foe to date. I'm Matt Rogers and join me today as we discuss season 4's new main villain Vecna and of course possible spoilers for season 4 Now I'm bringing all the latest news and updates for Stranger Things and delivering it straight to your subscription feed So to stay up to date and support the channel be sure to hit that like button Subscribe and ring that bell to not miss a single thing The upside down has spawned all kinds of nightmares in seasons past but never has one looked quite like this I guess humanoid to use that word loosely This creature who has been confirmed to be named Vecna can be heard saying you have lost at the end of the season 4 trailer You have lost Implying that he at some point gains the upper hand over the show's heroes and who knows maybe even succeed in whatever his evil plans May be as we saw in movies like Avengers Infinity War the villain can win sometimes Which allows for a climactic comeback for the heroes in the finale and Stranger Things has been confirmed to end with season 5 So it could happen Vecna could pull a Thanos style move which I would personally love to see Let's just hope we don't have to wait another three years for the next installment But what do we know about Vecna? Well the name like many other upside-down creatures names comes from the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons which is of course the tabletop game played by the kids as early as the first season and has helped them understand The enemies that they've faced thus far in Dungeons & Dragons Vecna is a deity also known as the whispered one or the undying king and he is best described as a kind of Undead wizard the show's producers have confirmed that in Stranger Things Vecna was once a human who mutated into a monster from overexposure to the upside-down this confirmation has caused fans to question if we may even know the character underneath Is it Billy Barb even who knows but it is unlikely considering some details provided by the show's production designer Barry Gower who has said quote what's happened is he's been subjected to all of the environments and the surroundings of the upside-down Basically for 20 odd years, so the look for Vecna is he's humanoid But we are basically integrating lots of shapes and textures and form from the upside-down There's a lot of roots and vines and very organic shapes and fibrous muscle tissues and what have you end quote It does appear that the producers have drawn inspiration from the original Vecna from Dungeons & Dragons and made him their own My guess is that the motives of the character will remain the same though as he has been described in Dungeons & Dragons as having a Never-ending thirst for power and if his plans are successful, it'll end with him as the only deity in existence Sounds right on-brand following characters like the Mind Flayer Co-creator Ross Duffer has given us a bit of an insight into how Vecna will tie into the story and it stems from a family known as the Creels In the 1950s Victor Creel played by Nightmare on Elm Streets Robert Englund was your typical suburban dad who fell victim to his house in Hawkins Which due to unforeseen circumstances possessed him to kill his entire family Vecna is apparently the boogeyman that resides in the Creel house attic Episode 2 of season 4 will be named Vecna's curse My guess is Vecna's presence alone is enough to get you to do his bidding which makes him a dangerous opponent Duffer has said quote part of the drive and tension in this season is that we have this big new evil Emerging Hawkins and for the first time ever 11 is not there and not only is she separated by distance But at the end of season 3 she's also lost her power so even when she's learned about what's happened in Hawkins She's unable to help them in the same way she has before and quote But what villain is complete without minions and Vecna will have demo bats Co-creator Matt Duffer has confirmed that one of these bats alone is not very dangerous But when there's hundreds and hundreds of them coming at you at the same time They're very deadly. They also have the ability to act as spies So you may not even see one and then suddenly because everything is a hive mind in the upside down every monster in there knows that you're there God, they don't make it easy for these poor Hawkins citizens. Do they but let's talk about his look as soon as I saw him in the Trailer I was immediately reminded of old-school classic horror villains where prosthetics were used and everything wasn't all CGI The more practical effects the better if you ask me Gower the production designer has said that they use skin tight prosthetics on the actor and used fiberglass and epoxy resin molds To craft warped shapes around him Gower has said quote It's still very much a human beneath it and we still have panels of flesh which are very pale Almost anemic looking and the idea really is that the exposed flesh that is pale is human skin that hasn't seen sunlight for the past 20 years and quote from everything We know so far all signs point to a complex and powerful villain And that's exactly what we've come to expect from the hit show stranger things will be premiering volume 1 of season 4 on May 27th followed by volume 2 on July 1st Do you think vacna will be powerful enough to overthrow Hawkins and overpower earth with the upside down or the kids do What they do best and add vacna to their growing list of defeated villains?

When Malachi Corley of Western Kentucky wide receiver gets his hands on the football things Happen. Have you always been like that? Yeah, ever since I was in high school or going all the way back to 5th and 6th grade You know, I've always been good with the ball in my hands Playing 1a football in Camasul, Kentucky at 19 kids of my region championship team So getting the ball in every single way in order to make our team successful, you know So that's always been a part of my game Always had a lot of toughness to my game as well making guys miss after the catch and honestly in high school I got a lot of pitches a lot of handoffs and stuff like that So that was a big part of my game growing up being able to adjust that to college when I'm running through the tackles And then I'm translating to running over corners and stuff like that So it got a lot easier for me in that regard especially, you know Putting on a lot of muscle and put on a lot of strength and made those decisions to just barrel over guys a lot easier for me If you had a dollar for every time somebody told you you were a running back or you were built like a running back Would you be a very wealthy man? I'd be a show me wealthy man. Even here scouts have asked me you play running back I've even been asked linebacker while I've been here. So, uh, yeah, 100% You know, I love having that this stature and stuff like that and being able to move in the way that I can You know, it's a it's a very good advantage for myself.  Okay, he can do this that a guy of your stature and with your build is able to do the thing that the Long guys the tall guys the striders can do it. Yeah, 100% I think that that's been a part of me coming here You know showing that I can run the entire route tree and run the route tree with the best of the guys Even if they're a lot taller and a lot slender and a lot more longer to me I can still get in out of my cuts just as good as them I can still win vertically just as good as them and also I have the advantage of being Stronger than a lot of guys so I can use that as my advantage as well What you learned playing football for the Western Kentucky Hill toppers Well, my coach used to tell me every single game.  So being in that system and having a lot of pressure on my shoulders is something I really thrive in so ultimately just being around Bailey's api and Jerry Stearns Mitchell tens the guys who really showed me the way to play the game Real hard workers who never complain about anything. They showed me a lot in that way And on top of that having you know, coach Kately and coach Arbuckle who are now coaching at power five schools They taught me a lot about the you know The schemes of games and how to get open in the zones and stuff like that and also showing me coverages and how to break those down I would think with this build you don't have any trouble with press coverage. Not at all. Not at all All right, so everybody's talked about how fast you are and and the speed What do we think we're gonna run at the combine? What are we hoping to run? Right now. I've been testing and I've been testing tens just the tens and I've been popping 146 tens consistently which is you know ahead of the pack of guys for the most part and I'm planning to run a 4-3 high 4-3 and hopefully flip the narrative and maybe get put my name into that first round ball But that 10 is really more important than the 40 in real because I have a lot of turnover. I'm a really fast guy It's more so about getting that starting gaining as much ground as I can in the opening three steps And you know when I'm on my six step, hopefully being at around 11 yards And you know just running the turnover rates at the end of that and I think I have enough speed in order to Run a mid 4-3 or low 4-3 even I thought you would have mr.  Yak mr. Yards after the catch for draft. They all definitely have a yack chain chain, you know You know my entire career had 2,300 yards of yak. That's just you're crazy Unbelievable just getting the ball thrown at the line of scrimmage. Tell me a screen. I'll see what I can do 2022 had the most explosive plays of receiver in the country 40 broken taxes, which is the second most all-time in the season You know all those things are things that people can never take away from me And that's a big staple in my game and a part of why I have the you know The presidents that I do You know the Titans Could probably use your receiver. Did you heard that? Oh, absolutely. I've heard that you know, you know Nashville's right down the road, you know, I'm aware of that. Yes It's very close and and this we have a lot of fans in Campbell'sville, but certainly in bowling group Yeah, a hundred percent. I'd love to be in that environment have you know all the friends and family and all the Supporters from all this home being able to come to all those NFL games You know packing the game my whole high school team come down to the game and everything like that Be really nice. Mr. Yak has a Titan. I love your game Malachi Corley. Thanks so much. Absolutely. I'm appreciative you have me on here Thank you. Good guy right here Malachi Corley
