Hey, John Crestani here and I'm going over three passive income ideas for 2020 and 2021 that you can use to start making money consistently and passively requiring very little effort on your part. Let's get it. Passive income, it's the best. It comes in and you don't have to do a lot of work for it. Most people are very motivated to be very lazy. So I know everybody's interested in passive income, money without work, but it always is going to take a little bit of work to make the money. And the first idea for making passive income in 2020 and 2021 is selling my course through YouTube videos. Now YouTube takes a while to ramp up and get going, but every time you post a video, it's like a little asset and it lives on forever and it continues to get views. I still make thousands of dollars a month from videos that I shot two or three years ago, which is just crazy, but that's the way YouTube works is the content stays on YouTube forever.  Now what I recommend is just buy my course super affiliate system and you can take the information that you learn from my course, which tens of thousands of people have paid for. Now what you can do is simply take my course, which over 10,000 people have paid for and take the content in there and create your own videos and give that knowledge to people for free. Literally, I'm telling you, take what you learn from my training course that over 10,000 people have paid over $1,000 for and just give it away to people for free. Now that's a great way to build an audience. And obviously you already know people are very interested in this data. People are willing to pay a lot of money for this information and you could simply just record your own cliff notes versions of what I talked about in my training course and give it away to people, build an audience and start earning affiliate commissions from recommending my course in the links or the description just like I have a description with links in it down below and you earn $500 every time somebody purchases the super affiliate system. So it's a great win-win for everyone. Now to get your affiliate links for my course, you would just go to Clickbank or you'd go to DigiStore and then you type in my last name or type in super affiliate system and get your affiliate link and you just put that in the description just like I have links down in my description below. An extra tip is you could put your link in the cards of YouTube video. You could put it in the end screen and obviously you'll also put it in the link in the description. Now I have other videos that talk to you about how you can build a YouTube channel but basically it's the more content you produce the better and the higher quality that content is and the more engaging it is the better. I have other videos, I'll have my editors link to some of my videos about how to grow a YouTube channel. Now the second passive income idea is making money with Google Adsense on YouTube videos. YouTube is continues to be one of the best ways to make money online and it's very easy to put up videos consistently three times a week for six months. Again it only takes three videos a week for six months to really start seeing your channel to grow and once you reach a thousand subscribers or 4,000 hours of watch time you will start being able to earn money from Google because Google puts ads on your videos and you earn a percentage of money from that and once you reach a thousand subscribers or 4,000 hours of watch time it's literally you just log into YouTube and there's just a button you click to enable Adsense. Again if you you know you just google search enable Adsense for YouTube but you'll see it when you log into your Creator Studio which is how you create YouTube videos and what's even better is if you're also applying my methods of affiliate marketing with your YouTube videos then you'll be having two sources of income directly from your YouTube videos. You'll be making money from ads that Google puts on them and you'll be making money from links from products that people buy through the links in your description and what's even better is that when you enable Adsense on your videos YouTube actually suggests your videos more because again they want to promote and suggest videos that they will make ad revenue from. Now the third passive income idea for you is creating a marketing funnel with YouTube ads for an affiliate product. It may seem a little complicated but what you're taking advantage of is the fact that YouTube advertising is an incredibly new world and big advertisers and big companies have no idea how to fully use the YouTube platform to reach people. So if you don't want to create videos you can create marketing campaigns for other products and what I would suggest you do for that is actually to get my course the super affiliate system and learn how to do YouTube advertising effectively. I go through everything about YouTube advertising in my course it's a major way to make money that's very unsaturated right now. As you know or as you've seen maybe on the internet a lot of people talk about Facebook advertising and I don't know if you know the old adage but if everyone's talking about it it probably means that the opportunity isn't there anymore and everybody's talking about Facebook ads and the truth is the opportunity is not there anymore. YouTube advertising is a much easier pool to fish in because less people are talking about it it's extremely effective and people don't understand how to fully use it yet. Not many people teach YouTube advertising because not many people know YouTube advertising but by getting my training course the super affiliate system you'll be ahead of 99.999% of the population in terms of YouTube advertising and you can spend a little bit of time creating a marketing funnel for other people's products and earn a commission once it is running and profitable and the great thing about marketing campaigns is their hands off once you've got it running once you've got it profitable you can sit back and just wake up every day to profits.  My business makes over $10,000 per day and I don't really have to do much honestly. I work on my business all the time but the revenue part of it the money part of it it runs without me. Most of my time is spent on future opportunities most of my time is spent on learning most of my time is spent on reading most of my time is spent on increasing the knowledge in my brain networking with other people to learn more things about more aspects of business and life that I don't know. Again, I don't spend much of my time making money I spend most of my time learning and I would also encourage you to spend a lot of your time learning as well as doing so get that money if you need a community or a group of people to interact with to help you get there so to speak or motivate you or keep you motivated. I recommend you join my discord channel there's a link in the description that's johncrestonnie.com back slash discord and it's a big community we have of folks that are just learning to make money online it's free you know amazon drop shipping you know facebook ads google ads youtube ads affiliate marketing you name it you can talk about anything in there also i encourage you to hit that notification bell if you want to be on our monday live streams every monday i give away a lot of money here's a bunch of amazon money i gave away as you see we have tons of gift cards and we scratch them live on camera and give you that money just as kind of like a thank you for being a subscriber to this channel last stream i gave away five hundred dollars and there are only a hundred people on the live stream so that's about five dollars for every person who is on the actual live stream i don't know youtube must hate me or something but because you think more people would be on a live stream for a money giveaway but we're giving away money here so thank you for being a subscriber and encourage you to not be a stranger hit the like button and also leave a comment talk to you soon have a good day bye i'm freaking excited today if you guys can tell i got my first sale oh he's like i got two of them i got a gift props to john christani i also signed up for his monthly coaching that he does i'm it's like 40 bucks or something like that i am going to sign in so clip bank is where i got my first sales commission you guys don't know it uh know know about it and you guys will soon um so there it is so um there's my commissions no money has to come out of your pocket for ad spend or nothing he shows you the true and legit way to start your marketing campaigns with no money oh john absolutely one of the best teachers there are


thanks to Sideshow Bob no joke I'm dead serious side so Sideshow Sideshow Nav give me he gave me some advice today was really helpful and so I just appreciate that I am doing better and it means a lot and then Nephilim free talking smack he just won't stop all this smack doc he says twice in all caps Anthony beyond he good to see you and then Twitch chat so sorry I'm behind our quiet peaceful Twitch chat you guys I am so thankful for you and you know what I think I will go to let's see said the auto mod in the in the Twitch chat said held a message for a certain reason namely misogyny allow post a will you allow it to post a chat and then it shows the post which is somebody said stupid whore energy so they thought it was like but anyway Pothold good to see you there in the old Twitch chat as well suffering in Brooks Sparrow and to Potsall and ASEAN and what is this auto mod that's Twitch it's like a row it's a droid and then amazing but yes Brooks Sparrow thanks for your kind words seriously that means a lot I really do appreciate it tonight was a challenging one to moderate to be honest holy smokes I never would have guessed the Titanic topic would have been like that but Teemo good to see you and K.N. Glad you came by Wednesday's thanks for dropping in iron horse is not sure you notice they changed my channel name still looking forward to smashing T jump and the space is fake debate soon wow those are big words from a big man you guys know what that movie what movie that's from come on and nobody I'm surprised only R.J. and it makes sense because R.J. he loves history only R.J. recognized when I used a Reagan quote during the debate no did anybody else notice did you guys not know that I was I was using like a Reagan what's the word let me look this up that would that be would that count as a trope let's see a figurative use of a word or expression yeah maybe not quite a trope that was like one of Reagan's most famous moments ever in political history it was Walter Mondale they were in a debate it was a political debate which is so appropriate so I was I get a kick out of like political debate history you can see like their YouTube videos that'll be like some of the most defining moments of political debates for past presidential debates and what happened was Walter Mondale was debating Ronald Reagan one of one of the people the moderator who's asking questions that Ronald Reagan people have been concerned about your age and you know they mention that JFK had to stay up several nights in a row during the Cuban missile crisis and they said people are concerned and want to know if you are truly able to handle this job at your age because Ronald Reagan was running as an the oldest I think to date because Trump and Biden were both older than him but to date he was the oldest person who had run for president and rah and so this is obviously like people it was almost to look as if like it's kind of a hard question on Reagan you're kind of calling him out there for his age just saying maybe he can't handle the presidency as at his age and he cleverly said you know I am not for the political purposes of this campaign going to exploit my opponent's youth and an experience by pointing out our age differences and everybody went nuts because it was just so clever and it was kind of what you'd in persuasive ready like figuratively speaking persuasive rhetoric you'd say was kind of this judo move of using your opponents momentum against them because it was just so funny because the other his opponent Walter Mondial wasn't he wasn't like a young buck but he was a lot younger than Reagan and so is well-placed it was a good joke but let's see here you tube says flat versus globe baby versus t-jump from 19th July 21 t-jump got humiliated is that true you tube and then Cassian thanks for your kind words and thanks for being here says great job James I'm surprised you were able to keep them from killing each other me too that was like maybe our most heated ever no joke that was like I'm a little uncomfortable with some of the things that were said because they were mean and I don't like that and so yes we're going to handle those things now mark read good to see you and then let's see Scott field thanks for coming by says love this debate spicy please have Alex back again maybe I don't know we're going to I'm going to have to talk to Alex but Mantic Panda is good to see you says rose is sweet I'll give her that she is sweet people love rose no doubt about it I know it you know it everybody knows it and then let's see here Result of course

whether you be Christian atheist Republican Democrat Trump or Biden or you name it we want you here my dear friends there are things we agree on despite the fact that we disagree significantly on some

tab on YouTube we'll post the receipt for the donation that we make and so we're excited about that it's going to be epic you guys we're just going to keep having a bigger and better and more awesome impact on YouTube and it's thanks to people like you for making this channel awesome for real it has honestly been a blast I've enjoyed it all the time and I'm going to continue to enjoy it as we keep going after it and I am locked in like I love this channel like seriously I enjoy it if heaven forbid something happened you know if I like let's say my program said hey James you know you can't do that anymore I don't think that's going to happen but modern day debate would still live on first I honestly kind of wonder I might actually dig my feet in I might even dig my heels and be like you know what I'm going to keep doing it but theoretically let's say I'm I'm sick and it's like oh I was like yeah I can't be here to stream it's a bummer nonetheless modern day would keep on going because it's a symbol folks it's more than oh hey this is James's debate channel no no no no this is a symbol modern day debate is something that is bigger than all of us it is something that frankly it's hard to say you really see it on YouTube intelligence squared debates so like you could say that they're fairly moderated I haven't seen a problem with them so we're not the only ones but we think we do it best and so we are determined my dear friends it's a rare thing really it is because a lot of channels even if the moderation is fair they'll do an after-show maybe where they'll be like oh okay well it's a separate stream so now we can just trash one of the sides of the debate and it's like wait why like that doesn't strike me as like a very neutral channel like our goal is to do better than that and so thanks Jason Lingle for being with us and then Madam Moselle says I first saw you on MC Tune I'm so glad I subbed you and the chat are awesome thanks so much for your kind words seriously that means a lot that's really nice of you and we hope that good ol MC Tune is doing well he's a nice young man Melvin a lot of people don't know it's his real name Melvin tremendous

enough though guys I'm pumped I'm excited and really especially in the winter some of the big things that we want to do might take a little bit more planning and so we are kind of like I'm looking ahead in terms of like January, February like are there some big time events so I saw someone in chat sorry I like forgot I missed your name I know you saw it in chat someone said what about the Crowder versus Cedar debate that's something that for real in the future we would love to do and I don't know if that would be this winter but for real we do want to keep shooting for the stars and throwing bigger and bigger Hail Marys as we're excited about what's been happening you know it's been fun to do this channel Colossus good to see you says what up y'all thanks for coming by Colossus

amazing beta isn't that amazing


When we come back. This is the story I thought we'd be leading with but then everything else happened yesterday the Dallas Mavericks How do we punish them? That is the question.  Returns. Oh, welcome back. Just laughing at nothing really quite frankly. So the Dallas Mavericks was that was the big thing, right? That I was in New York over the weekend. People were angry shams I even had tried to text you to get information on what was gonna happen because they were so blatant about sitting Everybody and then they benched Luca very very early There were still things for them to be playing for quite frankly And then the fact is that they want to keep their top ten Protected pick Nick's fans live it Chandler, what do you think about the fact that the math didn't even bother trying to play for the play-in? Yeah, I get it business-wise right like you said they're trying to keep their pick They were Thai bush Chicago That that pick would have come over from the prosongus deal So I get it that way object number one is to sign Kyrie Irving this summer Maintain your pick and kind of go forward with a fresh start with a full training camp and a full season The opposite though as a fan You don't understand you think we still have a chance to get in the playoffs you we have Luca We have Kyrie these guys can play and it's based kind of a loser mentality to not even try right? so I I get the frustration from them and I get the frustration I get and I get the idea of Mark being like you know This is a tall task. We're gonna go into the play-in. We have to win a game We have to win two games just to face Denver or Memphis in the first round There was a tall task and so I agree with it business-wise But I understand that this is gonna this is gonna piss off a lot of people when they think they have a chance And they think they have enough talent that they can go in there and they can win the play-in tournament So I see both sides, but it's definitely frustrating. J kid wasn't really mean he basically was like not my call Not my call when you make that trade at the deadline and you say we're bringing in Kyrie Irving One of the most talented players of all time. We're talking about a guy 30 years old who's in the prime of his career That's supposed to be a win now trade. That's supposed to be a y'all We're trying to compete this year trade and we all know about their struggles We all know what their record was we all obviously they missed the playoffs and look at the end of the day The Thunder won their final two games. So like it was all moved It was all for not right because they were gonna miss out either way But for them to say, yo, we're shutting Kyrie down very blatantly The fact of the NBA step forward and said look we got to investigate this this is getting crazy Like it's it's absurd and and Luca plays a quarter and like what are we doing at this point? But look they did what they needed to do They're trying to protect the pick that they may have and then and they need its top ten protect that I believe in They need that pick they gave up a pick and two second rounds going forward for Kyrie like Disaster they're in a crazy hole right now and they have a big summer going up And I know the rumor and then the debunked rumor straight from Luca that he's not looking to leave I don't care. I don't care what he says. I don't care what the rumor is if that team is not good next year It's nothing for Luca to say yo, I'm out of here. Yeah send me anywhere and no one would be mad at it I don't think anyone would be mad at Shams They have really dug themselves a bit of a hole here as far as the offseason. What's the main focus? Well, the main priority is resigning Kyrie Irving to a deal. They need his salary spot There's really no other way for them to improve even if they did not let's say they did not want to resign Kyrie There's really no way for them to make this team better So bring him back on a deal if they can reach an agreement then you try to go into the trade marketplace They have two first round picks they can trade this summer You have some salaries you can use and then on the other, you know, they're gonna have a top 10 Potential pick you hope that you get some lottery luck and move up And I know that's what the the Mavericks Nico Harrison Mark Cuban, Jason Kitt They're all praying that they get higher up and you know compete with your spurs to get Victor Wembanyal potentially But they're gonna have a couple assets here to play with the question is though Are they gonna make this team good enough this summer to be championship caliber? Do they have the pieces? You know if they go get a I think when you look at this team You prioritize go going and getting like a four, you know for three that can defend play at a high level on both ends of the floor We'll see if they can get it done Yeah, they got a resign Kyrie Irving and then they do have to add those those tough They have to add the Jared Vanderbilt's the J Crowders. They need toughness. They need defensive wings They need rugged guys. They don't have anybody like that on this roster that can kind of fill that void So I agree the first order of business is to sign him if you don't and you had a three-month lease on Kyrie Irving Didn't work out. It's it's it could go down as one of the worst trades ever So like they have to resign him and then they have to go in next season this free agency with two top 10 players Going into their prime and kind of build around that but they have to they have Why do you have to resign Kyrie?  It's I think Luca is more likely to leave if they don't re-sign him I think they did Luca needs help. He needs another he needs talent. He needs a guy like Kyrie or he needs Jalen Brunson It's such a relief So when you look at it on paper you see then they've had some highs with the with these two playing together They just I think a full offseason a full summer full training camp They go into next season put more positive than obviously, you know how this season We never thought we'd be here talking about the maps We're talking about the Lakers like this and then they just switch. Well once they did the Kyrie thing I think there were a big group of humans that thought no expectations though No, I mean once you get Kyrie Irving you're expected. I didn't think that a lot of Saying but I'm talking specifically about this Kyrie situation No, I remember thinking like this could be great But I also think this could be absolutely disaster and here we are it's a complete I think Mark Cuban said it in his in his media thing I think they underestimated how much losing a guy like Dorian Finney Smith and just the defenders that you need on a team If you're if you're catering around two-star players in Luca Dodgers Kyrie Irving that clearly are Offensively focused you need to surround them the right way And I think they were missing that depth and the defensive You know nuances that I think you need from you know if you're gonna build around those two guys I mean we said it when they did when they made the trade They traded their best defender for a minus defender love Kyrie and everything he does and he actually played incredible for them He's 27 points a game. He shot 50 40 90 just not 39% from three in like 94% free though He was incredible. He was the best version of Kyrie you can ask for but he cannot guard the best perimeter players in league He just is not that guy you trade away your best defender You're gonna hurt you're giving up 130 points to the Miami Heat the lowest scoring team in the league in a game You absolutely have to win like this is what you bought into by trading away your best defender For somebody who's a minus defender in and look you got a ton of great things from Kyrie But you were never gonna get defense and now like some says you have to think about that this summer You have to look at the Jared Vanderbilt's of the road the Jaden McDaniels of the road We need like three of those guys and they need to defend everybody for these guys And they need to hit threes and I don't know that they can put that together this summer Right they need to aim towards putting that together because these are two Legendary talents right between the two guys they have at the top of the food chain and you have to surround them What exactly what they need and we'll see look channel I know everyone's gonna say the right things right especially right now, but true serum to Cuban How concerned is he really about losing Luca at some point here?  He plays hard. He wants to win But as much as he wants that he wants help and a guy like Kyrie Irving how he's played great this year again Now it's now it's building with these two guys going forward getting those other pieces getting actual reliable Bigs getting wing defending guys that are tough that can relieve pressure that allow these guys to go do what they do on the Event and so I think again another season like this then I'd start worrying right now you still up time He's gonna be going to the second year of a five-year super max contract I I think they were just the Western Conference finals last year getting Kyrie Irving I think satisfied that secondary star now it's about now the onus is really on Mark Cuban and Nico Harrison, how are you gonna surround those two? He's making 50 million living in uptown Dallas. He's pretty Tell us about that They have time no state tax. Yeah, it's not that bad, but he could also be a nick that'd be kind of fun He could be a Miami heat 50 million Also works there take a quick break when we come back the most Disrespectful moments that a man could possibly endure when that man has a family running back


Community reintegration – how do you set up an effective community-based reintegration project? The sustainability of returnies reintegration is strongly linked with the communities they return to. Communities with strong social networks and access to resources can provide support and protection to returnies and themselves benefit from the reintegration process. But when communities are unable to provide support and protection, the return experience can be a risk factor for both the community and the returnies. Perceived or actual economic competition for jobs, strains on services and infrastructure in high-return areas and stigmatisation of returnies are all potential barriers to sustainable reintegration. This is when community-based reintegration interventions can make a difference. Community-based interventions can include a wide range of activities, for example setting up job creation initiatives, promoting dialogue among community members and implementing small-scale infrastructure projects. Project approaches can differ too, supporting returnies to set up collective projects with community members, creating new community-based projects or including returnies into existing community-based projects. Generally, all community-level reintegration initiatives aim to contribute to an environment that is conducive to sustainable reintegration in communities of return and foster inclusion and strengthen their resilience. How can we set up an effective community-based reintegration project? 1. Engage with community members so they are owners of reintegration initiatives. The key is to use participatory methods to promote local ownership among returnies and their community. From the early stages of a project, it is critical that returnies and community members are involved in mapping, assessment and design of initiatives, as well as in decision-making to be able to influence priorities and implementation structures and implementation of the project itself. This approach increases the sense of empowerment, self-reliance and ownership. It recognises that local actors are knowledgeable about local development and environmental needs. Ultimately, it helps fostering sustainability after the assistance has ended. 2. Gain a deep understanding of the community Participation starts when identifying the needs of the community and the impact that return migration may have on the entire community. We need to gain a deep understanding of the community dynamics through community profiling and assessment. Community profiles identify the needs and resources of a community and the impact of return migration on these. For example, you can map the economic sectors that can offer the best opportunities for growth, expansion and capacity to absorb returnies and help foster positive attitudes among the community. Assessments give us information on existing gaps and possible synergies and help us to understand where and what type of assistance would be most effective. 3. Foster social cohesion between returnies and community members Community dynamics are often complex and not always favourable to returnies reintegration. Returnies' feelings of belonging depend on many factors, including the time spent abroad and the migration experiences. Empowering returnies to share their experiences with return communities and build social networks can increase their resilience, while limiting stigmatisation by fostering understanding and acceptance from the community. This can be done through dedicated awareness-raising events or by fostering spaces for dialogue and exchange at the local level. Practically speaking, cohesion between returnies and community members can be nurtured through community mobilisation that can involve processes like awareness-raising events, priority setting, planning implementation and monitoring of community progress, peer support mechanisms, community networks created on the basis of cultural, artistic and physical expression. To know more on community-based reintegration, consult the IOM Reintegration Handbook.

This is the SF Productions podcast network And that people used to tape shows. Let me see. There's a tape already in here. Let me hook this up here. Let me see what we got. Come back with us to the 60s and 70s dwelling place of the lost generation. An era whose heroes, role models, and very lives were molded and formed by weekly installments of favorite television programs. As your parents didn't understand. Welcome to the vast wasteland. Welcome home. I'm your host, Mark Schmibar, along with Wilbert Neal and Marty Wiley. We're here to talk about 60s and 70s television. Before we go into the big extravaganzo fund, I just want to tell you we're on Tuesdays at 6, Wednesdays at 10, and Thursdays at 3 p.m. here on A-S-E-T-V-E-K-E-B-L-S. Also, if you want to write into us, our address is box 151526, Columbus, Ohio, 43215. And it's also if you're interested in our big video exchange deal thing with no money included. That's right. If there's some show you're looking for and you can't seem to find it, this is your big opportunity. Write into us and we'll broadcast your message over the half or dozen of people who actually watch us. And maybe one of them actually have a tape of that show. But this is not for money. We want to emphasize this is not for money. This is a simple trade kind of deal. Some sort of barter deal. If you have a chicken or something, you can trade for it, I don't know. You'll know now chickens are considered to be currency in some parts of the world. Pigs. So we just want to see the letters rolling in for that. Fly again or fly again or however letters are delivered. Well, let's move into our big show tonight. This is part two of our big show on Maverick comedy shows. Comedy shows that really broke the rules. And we've already talked about laughing and we just started breaking the surface of money. So let's move more into money. Robert, what do we got here? Oh, I just missed my entry and no one could do anything about it. A little inside. But, well by golly, my name is Python. Did this really start in 68? Is that right? 69. 69. It's 69. We're still watching laughing. We're still watching laughing. And over across the pond there, they're doing this great, outrageous, humorous show with absolutely no scruples or anything. Coherency or anything. It was just downright silly. It was silly. It was so silly it was innovative. And it was great. And to prove how innovative it was, we didn't get it until, what, 75, 76? 75, 76, yeah. And they were done with four seasons of the thing already. They knew about it. That's right. And then we developed our own rip-off of it. Right. Yay! Several. But we get ahead of ourselves there. Right. So first, let's go through the... Yes. What? Start out with the short-lived or the long-lived? Well, let's see. First, we had the Python fruit. Cleese, Chapman, Idol, Palin, Jones, and Gilliam. That's Graham, Terry, Terry, Eric. There's a Michael in there. Michael and another Terry. No. A Bob. A Bob. No. No. No. Let me see. Let me see. Graham, Chapman, Eric, Idol, Terry, Jones, Terry, Gilliam. John. Graham, Graham, Cleese. John! John! Graham, Chapman. John, Cleese. John! Is that... Did I get them all? I think. You've got to go back to the remedial. That's it. Start the game. Well, anyway, there's six of them. But there's only... You usually only saw five of them because the sixth one usually just did the animation. That was Terry Gilliam. That was Terry Gilliam, the American who's from Canada. Yeah. The American who's Canada. Now gone into fame and fortune with Brazil and Baron Munchausen. And I don't know... Is he working on a project right now? Probably. They are working on something about superheroes. The last thing I heard, they were doing something about superheroes. They're supposed to be doing something about superheroes. Something about some aging superheroes. But hey, we don't know. We don't know what it is. So, let's see. We had a show that... Of course, a show with all men running the show. Men, if you had any women on the show. It was Carol Cleveland. Well, it was A. Carol Cleveland. Or one of the men. Men dressed up as women. And that, of course, was one of the major fixtures on the show. Were what were called the pepper pots. And these were the women who sat around. And Basin complained about everything. Good morning, Mrs. Lobster. Good morning, Mrs. Non-Lobster. What are you doing? Oh, I'm good shopping. Whatcha buy? A piston engine. Whatcha... Oh, I was a bargain. Yeah, I'll do that. See what happens. So, let's see. We had your pepper pots. Some of them... What's the favorite sketches I suppose? Favorite sketches, as well, by Golly. I think a favorite for anybody that watches to buy something. A favorite. That's a staple of any time they show the series. If they don't show this one, they've just wasted their money. Is the dead parrot. Yeah. The dead deceased parrot. No, he's only... He's pining for the fjords. Pining for the fjords? He's a Norwegian blue. He's just pining for the fjords. All the Norwegian blue enjoys kippin' on his back, Governor. Well, that was a good one. It's basically this thing. This parrot is dead. And the guy sold it to the man as a live parrot and claimed that it was sleeping. It was nailed to the parrot. So, it was butt out of the cage. He nailed it to that parrot. Muscled up to those bars. And went home with a beacon. This bud wouldn't boom if he put 5,000 volts through it. Anyway, so that's one. And also, I also enjoyed the gumbees. They were basically people that were like... They're brain damaged, aren't they? They got their heads wrapped up. Well, they put a high-cut chip on their heads and their pants were pulled up like Urkel. They got their pants rolled up. Their sleeves rolled up. And they took life fees. And they stand very rigidly. And how they live on? You see them walking the streets of Columbus. I know, they're nice. And let's see, there's a... Gosh, just stop. Hey, another favorite that you just don't see it. It's just not worth even turning it on. It's a lumberjack song. There's a song by Golly. We were talking about last time, the really great thing about the show was the fact that there was... How it broke the rules was that it... If they had a funny concept that didn't have a punchline on any other show until now, it would have been like, well, we can't use it because we don't have a punchline. Or if we got a great punchline, but we don't have a good lead into it, it'd be thrown away. But on this show, it was like, who needs this beginning, middle, and end stuff? We're just gonna go, bam, right into it. Wherever it happens, that's when it happens. And if you don't catch it, then you... Then you mess the rerun. Somewhere along the line, it'll finally hit. Oh, oh, honey, yeah. Whoa. Where have I been? You know, just think it's funny because you want to be so cool that you got it and nobody else did. Well, I think that a lot of people... I've heard a lot of people say, well, I can't watch the show because I can't understand what they're saying. They just couldn't get the British accent. Yeah, the British accent. Well, this is what PBS is for. You watch these shows and you pick up the British accent. It's not what PBS is for. You fight before you find yourself doing the British accent. Well, I mean, you get PBS so you can watch these BBC shows. Okay. Which was one of them. Well, one of my favorite tests has to be spam. I think which works better technically, I think on the album that it does on the show. Yeah, because in the album you get the... You can hear the Viking... You do the orchestral. Yeah. And I mean, the Vikings come in one speaker and the guy and his wife are the other speakers with the waiter. You get the...   And if you've never seen this, well this is all just lost on you. Yeah, basically. We're not even going to try to explain these sketches, we're just going to zip right through them. You can turn down the sound for a while if you've never watched Bison. Well let's see, what's another, well one of the best written ones I think is Argument Clinic. Yes. It's just a very tight sketch. A man comes in, wants to have an argument, and he comes into several rooms. It's a very nice, it's a very cheap sketch really because he just keeps coming into the same room with clever camera shots that look like he's going into several rooms. And they always have a different person in there. Yeah. You get the guy in charge of contradiction. No. No, that's the human form argument. No, it's contradiction. No, it's not. Yes it is. No, it's not. That's the contradiction thing. No, it is. Insult.  Right, and then he goes into the complaints department and the guy complains about him. Yeah. And then he finally goes in. And no one is hitting him in the head. Yeah, that's the being hit on the head lesson. Yes.  It's just silly. Yes. I don't know. On to something else. LAPD, took that course. Ooh, social humor. Relevancy. Oh, I see an end. Yeah. Relevancy. There's relevant stuff here. Relativity. Well, let's see. They had just great fun with history. Since they've got so much history over there, they think it's incorporated as often as possible, which was just great. And they incorporated it not only on the show, but into their movies as well. So it says Monty Python and the Holy Grail. One of, truly, just a milestone of a movie. They just do so many things. And it was funny too. If you consider some of the reviews, Guy the Griller made me want to eat my own vomit. No. So, he got to love a movie like that. Well, Spanish Inquisition.  Nobody's next to Spanish Inquisition. We're just enjoying the heck out of this one. If you've ever seen the show, it's just lost on you. Bye, Gally. That was great. If you did it on the way, you can see it now. I was watching it on that one comedy network.  Yeah. That comedy network was showing it. That comedy deal. What is it called now? Comedy DTV now. It's called. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. Turn it on. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. DTV. But I don't know where it's showing now. I suppose you can go to the library and get a tape or something. That's good. They are all on videotape now. They're all on videotape. You can get just about every one of those episodes on videotape. So, if you don't have a VCR, I guess you're screwed on that too. Oh, sorry. And the thing about the show, the style can alter so much during the show. Some of the early episodes, especially, are very video based, very quick bits, and then there's a later show, the bicycling tour, or the cycling tour, which is one sketch that goes the entire show about this loser guy who's going on the cycling tour and he meets up with this guy who's trying to make safer vegetables. Like the ultimate running gag kind of thing. Yeah, it is. Yeah, it goes on.  So deep. Yeah. Very strange. So we were to show off, basically. Well, several times. Right. But now it's available, like I said, we're available on videotape and available maybe on this new CTV. It was on the old comedy channel. But who knows? It should have happened anyway. So are you beating that to death or are we moving on? Yeah, we're moving on. Yeah, I think we've done enough of the pilot thing. Okay. And now there's something completely different. But not really. Yeah. Because it was based pretty much on this and Laughin and Ernie Kovacs. All that. We're talking, we're talking SNL. We're talking Saturday Night Live. Saturday Night Live from New York. And, okay. Saturday Night Live. And this was the... Which actually Eric Ida was on there. Oh, he was. Palin was on there. Yeah, he did that slobbering thing. It was so gross. Yeah. It was first there in October of 1975. First there was George Carlin. Yeah. George Carlin had the honor of opening each season there for a while. Almost. It seemed like it. Are you sure? I believe. Carlin? I don't think he ever reappeared. Yeah. Yeah, he did. Are you sure? Yeah. For Carlin, dude? Yeah. No, for a fact. Because he came on and talked about the fact that he was the first. He was the first. Wow. I missed that. Well... Gee, now like everybody that did... It's like the show isn't funny anymore, kid. Because it's like, when Saturday Night Live came on, it was a scream. And they did like drug humor and beer humor and gross humor. But yeah, that's what made it so funny. They knew whereup they spoke. Yes, they pretty much in the...  Like junior high school humor. Yeah, I suppose. Well, it's in high school when the show came on. Well, I mean, now it's... No, it's yeah. Now it's just like... It's like, I don't know, maybe they're aiming for... To be popular or something. Yeah, they're trying to create an audience. They used to be on three times. They weren't on the first Saturday. They had some news kind of shows. Weekend. Weekend. With Linda Ellaby and Lloyd Dobbins. Uh-huh. And then the last three Saturdays of the month, you got Saturday Night Live. Which was just a totally new concept. Having a late night show for one. But then having... A show in New York. A live show. A live show. Which at that point nobody was doing live shows. No, forget it. The news wasn't live. No, no, maybe the news was. But that was other than that. Part of the news were live. Part of the news were live.  It was like, if it was on a videotape, we don't want to talk about it, you know. And they wanted everything to be safe. And this Lorne Michael guy came in and said, well, I want to do a show that's kind of a... Well, he basically lied to them. He said, oh, this is going to be kind of like a laughing kind of thing, you know. And he said, you know, if you read stuff about this, basically Lorne was like, I had no intention of doing this. When we first began, there was nothing like it on the air. And we had a kind of crusade feeling. It was a feeling of us against them, against the network, against the conventional wisdom of TV at the time. The intent was pure. We were incredibly naive. And now Lorne Michael is a power-mad producer or executive guy. He has given us the kids in the hall, which are fantastic out in Canada. But the show isn't funny anymore. We don't want to talk about the post-1980s show. Because it's not in our... But everyone from the original cast is either really, really famous now. Or they're dead. Except for Garrett Morris, who is terribly overlooked. And Lorne. Well, she changed her face. Yeah, Lorne did the nose job thing. She's only got enough money to do that. What do you mean? She did the whole face thing. And she just looks totally different. If you watch Saturday Night Live and you see Lorne Newman, and then you see her on something now, it's not the same person. Where do you see her on? I'll see her on something, but I can't remember what it was. Because when I see her, I don't recognize her. I haven't seen her in a long time. Well, she did that movie with Jamie Lee Curtis. Oh, yeah, that's right. And what was that? Perfect. Is that what it was called? Yeah. Okay. She was in that movie. When I see her with her new look, and it was like totally different. Doesn't even look like Lorne. And then we've got people that you always see now, Dan Aykroyd. My gosh. You're always seeing Dan either in a really good movie or in a really bad movie like that. Nothing's the trouble. I never did see that. I haven't seen it yet at least. I probably will see it. Well, I think you missed it. No, no, it's still around. It is still around. Well, see, you know a movie's bad when like two days before the movie opens, they change the name of it. Because this movie was called Vulcanvania. So like the week before, they went, nothing but trouble. Which I think was pretty much the producer said, there's always been nothing but trouble. Let's call it that. The cheese like made of kiln is the ghostbusters. Yeah. Of course, the Blues Brothers. Blues Brothers. Which started on Saturday Night Live. With Belushi doing the flips on stage and stuff. Of course, I guess you can do that when you're on cocaine, but I don't know. Right. And that started, of course, as a warm-up act for the show. They did it several times and they finally said, hey, let's put this on the show. And they did. And it became this enormous hit. And John went on to fame, fortune, cocaine, and death. You know what's really weird? There was a, they used to have the shorts on there, the Gary Weiss short film. And they did one that really, it's really scary to watch now because it's Belushi going through a graveyard talking about all the other cast members. And he's the last member that lives. And he's the last one alive because he was the first one to die. Right. But it was like right after he died, I saw it. And it's really creepy to watch that. And it's so scary to watch it now. It freaks me out, but I saw it like soon after he died and it just really bothered me. There's a really funny Gary Weiss. I don't think it's Gary Weiss. I think it was the, in the beginning of the show they were doing pretty much anybody could send in a home movie. Home videos, yeah. Home movie. And it turns out to America it's funny it's own videos, but they were a lot ruder. One of them was led to Mr. Bill. But this one, I've only seen it once, was called the hubcap thief. And this was hilarious.   And he's trying desperately to get out and he gets his feet stuck and a guy gets in the other, he's on the passenger side of the car. And so he can't see. The driver gets in the car not seeing the guy there and drives off and you see the guy kind of going uh-huh. I remember this a long time ago. They've never shown it since I don't think and it was hilarious. And they did the thing too. Like if they were in a sketch and it wasn't working. What is that? Or they dropped the cow. Yeah, they dropped the cow. Yeah, there was a lot of Python stuff to the show. In fact, Chevy Chase said they were always mad that they couldn't edit the show. I mean they would have done a lot of stuff more stuff like Python except it was live, you know, kind of hard to. But they did do some interesting things. I mean like the classic fall that Chevy always did at the beginning of the show. Oh man, Chevy put a lot into this show. It broke everything. And the Belushi in the news thing he's doing is talking to and it just falls down or whatever. And the butt, no. Excuse me. Well that's Steve Martin's buddy. He brought it on there and it kind of stayed on there because he was on it a few times too. And he's always bring up his friend Steve Wushankis. Or something like that. If there was a third person involved in the story it was always Steve Wushankis who is actually a real person as I understand it. Well as I understand it, that Richard Fader who was a real person. One of these great characters off here like well Emily Litchella was another great character. All these wonderful characters that if, well if you never saw the original one these are just kind of wild fun too. But there's lots of places to watch that. That's true. You can watch Nick at Night all the time you want classic SNL. You can water down on Nick at Night. Well it's a half hour one. They've cut out the really objectionable thing. You can tell it's like that may offend somebody. No more spuds commercials. That was the real beauty of the show that they tried to offend just about everybody. At one point or another. They kind of had the rip off of Saturday Night Live for a brief time which was a good show Friday. Friday's was a good show. It was good. I debate that. Yeah somebody carried a little Melanie Chardoff was. Yeah Melanie Chardoff. That geeky guy in the room. Richard, what is his name? Well Mark Blackfield. I would like the character of the little kid that had his G.I. Joe. That was the crazy, the tall guy. But it did all the funny stuff. And the pharmacist take up. That was a Mark Blackfield just great one. And Melanie Chardoff was always, she was just bitchy. She was just the date kind of on that show. But certainly a show that never particularly broke rules because all the rules were broken by Saturday Night Live and they just kind of walked in and said oh. Do you remember the other attempt? I think I always saw the show once. It was called Fun Zone or something. Dr. Demento was like a major host on the show. I swear I saw this show. They had Bud and Pam Militator commenting on the wind up toy races or something. And they were Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head. I know I saw this show. Okay. It was on late at night. I think it was a post Friday's. It may have, I don't remember if it was in the late 70s or when I saw this show but I know I saw this show. It was such a bit of a hot talk hat on. But it was kind of a spin off but I don't remember what it was called. It was on what too? I really hate to give this show a short shift because we only got like a couple minutes left. But another late night show of course was STTV. Which we've hardly even, A lot of Saturday Night Live people came off of that. It was like a war pretty much for a long time. People like John Candy there was like both shows were trying to get him to go on and finally he went to STTV. But weren't Belushi was originally a second city person? No, he was from, no, Accra was second, no, was Accra second city? I believe so, yeah. Radner was second city, Bill Murray was second city. And they did Lampoon too. That's where Lampoon Radio is. And stuff like that. There was a lot of cross pollination there. Well, because since then some of the STTVs have come over and done Saturday Night Live. Right. Martin Short? Yeah, Martin Short. That's such, but geez. Although my favorite character in STTV has to be Guy Caballero. So you don't like Count D. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Guy Caballero, the president and owner of the STTV network. And isn't it scary? Like Ed Grimley is famous.  He was just a goofy character. And like, the day I saw him on Sesame Street, I left. Yeah, about Dr. Tun, the house of representatives. How about Ed? Ed is prickly. Don't let yourself get down unless you're going to do it. Ed is such a lady.


Hi, my name's Lisa Guthrie and I'm a Program Manager with the Azure Dev Spaces team. Today I'm going to talk with you about how you can use Azure Kubernetes Service and Azure Dev Spaces to develop microservices running in Kubernetes. We all know that Kubernetes is great for deploying, running, and managing Cloud Native applications. But what about developing those applications? There's a lot of challenges that are inherent in building large Cloud Native applications. You have lots of microservices that allow you to scale and allow you to grow into a really large dev team without stepping on each other's toes. But it can be really hard to manage that from a developer perspective.  As your teammates are making updates, it can be really challenging to keep things in sync or keep your mocks or your stubs in sync with the actual application. So this is where we've introduced Azure Dev Spaces to help with a lot of these challenges. Azure Dev Spaces is an extension to Azure Kubernetes Service. At the heart of Azure Dev Spaces is this concept of a shared AKS cluster for team development. You can create this cluster, you and your teammates can all collaborate and run your application within this shared cluster. This gives you a lot of benefits. It allows you to onboard new team members with really minimal setup.  You can simply install an extension for Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code, or there's also a command line interface. You can mix and match. So if you do some C sharp development and some no development, you can install both the code and the Visual Studio extension and you can use both at the same time. When it comes to actually getting the code for your application, you only have to get the code for the service that you're working on. So if you've got a service that depends on five other services, rather than trying to run those all locally on your development workstation, you can run those additional services up in your shared team cluster and just work on the service that you're actually actively developing. Another benefit here is that you can test your code end-to-end. You don't have to simulate dependencies because the service that you're working on is also running up in that shared team cluster, and it has access to all the other services that are running there. You don't have to write stubs, keep those in line with what's going on, with the actual production services. If your teammates make an update to another service, then you see those changes right away. They can put them into the team cluster as well, and you don't have to synchronize code or rebuild the service or anything like that. When your service calls their service, you automatically see the latest version of that service that's running in your shared cluster. So let's take a little bit of a closer look at how this works. So you've got your development workstation, and when you press F5, you can run that code that you've been working on up in an AKS cluster that is enabled with Dev Spaces, that has had a Dev Spaces controller created on it. You can iterate very quickly. We've made a lot of optimizations to make this process as fast as possible. So for example, if you just make a simple change to an HTML file, we don't go through and completely rebuild the container image that's running that application. We simply put that updated file up and map that into the container that's already running, and you see those changes right away. Similarly, we don't rebuild a container if you just edit server code like JavaScript files or C-sharp files. We just rebuild that particular code and then map that into the running container. The only things that really force us to tear down a container are, if you for example, change a Docker file or a Helm chart or something else that really changes the way that that container is deployed. Also, your teammates can be using the same cluster and going through this exact same process with running their code up in the Cloud, and you all benefit from having access to what you're all working on. Now one question we get is, is this how I deploy to production as well? The answer is no. We see this as really being part of that development process. Eventually, when through this iterative process, you get to the point where you feel like you have code that's really ready to go on to production, you would still check into source control, you would still go through probably some sort of CI CD pipeline or whatever your normal deployment process is. This really supplements that. It doesn't completely replace your CI CD pipelines. Another feature that really helps with collaboration is the concept of spaces. So here you can see a diagram of a small microservices based application. So there's three microservices that make up this application. Webfrontend, Employee Search, and My Web API. They're communicating with each other. And you can see that there's a URL, a public facing URL, that you can use to access this application. Now what if my teammate Susie is working on that Employee Search service? What DevSpaces allows her to do is create her own copy of that Employee Search service. And she can run it in her space or in a Dev space. Let's call that Dev space Susie since it's Susie who's working on it here. This does not replace the version of Employee Search that's running up in the team's default space. Susie has her own version that she can edit, that she can live debug, and so on. And she gets her own end point, her own public end point. As you can see in this diagram, it's the URL of the main application, but prefixed with Susie, the name of her space, and .s. When requests come in to the application on that end point, what happens is that DevSpaces looks, the request comes into the web front end service. DevSpaces looks to see if there's a copy of web front end that's running in Susie's space. Because it sees that Susie in the URL, and it knows that it needs to look in Susie's space for a copy of that service. In this case, there is no copy of web front end running in Susie's space. So DevSpaces will direct that request to the web front end service running in the team's space, in the default space. Now, if web front end calls out to Employee Search, DevSpaces goes through that same process. It sees that Susie header attached to that request. And it looks to see if there is a version of Employee Search running in Susie's space. Now in this case, there is, there's that copy that Susie is working on. So it will automatically redirect that request to Susie's version of Employee Search. This is a second end point, so if Susie's version is completely broken, or if she's live debugging it so the service is not responding at that particular moment, all of Susie's teammates can still access the team's version of that service at the normal MyApp URL. What Susie's doing in her space does not affect them at all. And then similarly, if Employee Search calls out to MyWebAPI, then DevSpaces looks to see if there's a version of MyWebAPI running in Susie's space. In this case, there's not. So again, it redirects back to the version that's running in the team space. So really important here, it's not that Susie has every copy of every service running in her space in this shared cluster. She only has the services that she's working on that are directly impacting her work. So she sees updates right away to all the other services. If somebody were to, if I'm working on that web front end service and I have some updates to web front end, and I put those in the team space, then again, Susie will automatically see those updates. She doesn't have to rebuild my version of web front end or anything like that. It's just that when she comes in on her Susie end point, she will see my updated version of web front end. So this can really help with finding problems that might normally be caught further down the line in integration testing. It's very, very easy to get these services up and running in the Teams cluster. And then you can start to uncover some of these problems. So I'm gonna show a demo of this. All right, so here I have a very simple web application that I've built. And you can see that there's an about page here. And it lists out the members of the development team that built this website. And this page is pretty ugly. I don't really like the formatting of these names and they're not in any sort of order or anything. So I've made a few updates to this website in order to show the names in alphabetical order and also in a nicely formatted bulleted list. So if I take a look at this code, the employee names are actually coming from a back end web API. And my web front end code calls this employee search API, built by my teammate Susie, to get the names of the developers. Well, this employee search service, it's actually, it's a no JS service. I'm a .NET developer. And I don't even have the no JS workloads or whatever I need installed on my machine. So I, instead of trying to grab that service, maybe it has some database dependencies as well that I don't even know about. So rather than trying to go through the hassle of setting up this employee search service to run on my local machine. I've done what lots of developers do. I have a little stub that simply returns the employee data. You can see what this looks like. So just return some JSON data and then I manipulate that in my code. So I'm gonna go ahead and run this in isexpress just like I've always done. And just make sure that this is working here. My site loads, I'm gonna click on about. And my code is going to call out to that mock service and bring back the data and then format that nicely. So this is great. I can see that I've got a nice bulleted list here rather than that ugly formatting that I had before. Plus all of these names are now alphabetized based on last name. So Martin appears at the top and going down to Simon here at the bottom. All right, great. So my code's working, but of course this is with a mock. So before I check in this code, I would want to of course change that to actually make a call out to the service that's running in AKS. So that when I deploy this service into my AKS cluster, it makes that proper call. So I'll go ahead and save this. And today, this might be where my development process ends. Maybe I check this code into source control. My CICD process kicks in to maybe deploy the code to a test environment. Maybe there are some automated tests that run against it or maybe I have the opportunity to test it manually. But I'm kind of done at this point. All I need to do is check in. But with Dev Spaces, I have another option. I can very quickly take this code, which I know is destined to run in AKS. And with just a few clicks, I can run it live in AKS. So let's see how that works. I'm going to change my debug launch target here from IS Express, where it was before, to Azure Dev Spaces. And I'm going to take a look at my debug properties, just to see how this is all set up. So in here, I'm going to have my AKS cluster name here. So this is my team's shared AKS cluster, where I'm working and where all my teammates are working as well. And I can also choose a space here. Now, it so happens that the updates to this about page are being tracked in user story 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. So what my team has done is create a space specifically for that user story. It's a child of this default space. So thinking back to the diagram I showed, if any of the services that comprise this application are not running in that user story space, then Dev Spaces will automatically use the versions of that service that are running in that default space. But if there are any updated services in this user story space, then that's what will be used instead. I'll also just highlight a little change that I made to this code in order to enable all of this. You can see that this code here propagates an HTTP header called azds route as. When a request comes in to Dev Spaces enabled space, then if there is a prefix to that URL, so for example the suzi.s that we saw in the diagram before, it pulls off that prefix and it sticks it in this azds route as header. So then as the request propagates throughout the different services in the system, that header propagates as well. And that's how Dev Spaces knows that this request originated on suzi's endpoint or on user story 123456. And it knows which services to direct that request to based on that. So it's really important that when I do make a request out to another service, I make sure that I propagate this header as well in my code so that the routing works correctly. But aside from that, this should be ready to go in Dev Spaces. All I have to do, again, I don't need to have Docker installed locally. I don't need to build a container image. I don't need to create a container registry or anything like that. I just press F5 in Visual Studio. I've got the only thing that I did need to install was the Visual Studio Kubernetes Tools extension. That's the one special thing that I have installed over and above just Visual Studio 15.8. And that's what gives me this functionality. So you can kind of see in the output window here that Dev Spaces, it has synchronized my code up to the cluster and it's going ahead and it's building the container image. While it does that, I'm just going to pull up the Kubernetes dashboard here and just show you a little bit of what's going on behind the scenes. Dev Spaces is a little too quick for me there. We'll come back to that. Let's take a look at what's going on in Kubernetes itself. So here I am in the Kubernetes dashboard, standard Kubernetes AKS stuff here. And I am specifically in the default namespace which, if you remember, is that root namespace for the shared team cluster. And I've got a bunch of stuff running in here. There's Web Frontend, which is the service that I've modified the code for. But there's Employee Search as well, of course, and there's a couple of other services as well running in here in the default namespace. If I click on the namespace list here, you'll also see that there's just a standard Kubernetes namespace called User Story 123456. And if I click into User Story 123456, see what's running in here. And there's Web Frontend, and you can see that that was just started a minute ago, when I pressed F5 in Visual Studio. And it looks like my teammate Susie has also been updating that Employee Search service. So she's got a version of that running here in this User Story space. The other two services that you saw running in default, and again, it could be 20, it could be 200, depending on your application, those are not running in this User Story space. They've not been updated as part of this User Story. So if Web Frontend or Employee Search make any calls to those services, they'll go back up to the versions of those services that are running in default. All right, so let's see how this all came together. So here's my updated about page, and I can see that I've got my nice bulleted list now of employee names, but there's something wrong here, and this is kind of subtle, but when I looked at it before, when I looked at it when I was running it locally here, the list of names was sorted by last name. So Simon Winther appeared at the bottom. And now Simon Winther is somewhere here in the middle. So for some reason that alphabetization is not working. This is kind of a subtle bug, and maybe we've got an integration test that checks for to make sure that things are alphabetized correctly, but that would be a very easy thing to miss. And remember the only change that I made in my code was switching from using that the stubbed service that returned my stubbed out JSON data to using the actual live employee search service. So I've got an inkling here that there may be some sort of incompatibility here between my updated web front-end service and the updated employee search service that I could see my teammate Susie has put into our user story space. Oh, one other thing, sorry, that I should have highlighted here is the URL. So the URL for the standard or the original version of the site was just web front-end and then the usual AKS stuff afterwards. The way that I got to my updated code was that I prefixed that URL with user story one, two, three, four, five, six, dot s. All right, so great, this is great. We've identified a bug that normally, it's just taken me a few minutes to run and see this bug. Normally this would be a whole long process waiting on builds and CI CD and so on. So it's great that I've identified it, but Azure Dev Spaces even goes one step further and provides you the ability to much quickly figure out exactly what's going on with this bug. So let me switch back to Visual Studio here. And I'm running under the debugger here. Visual Studio, in addition to starting up the container image running live in my AKS cluster, it also opened up a remote debug session to that container. So I'm able to come in here and I'll just, I'll set a breakpoint here and some of my updated code and let's see if we can figure out what's going on. All right, so I'm gonna click about and I should say to here that I am choosing right now to live debug a service running in that user story space. Now the downside here is that if my teammate Susie wanted to test out her employee search service or wanted to do anything with that version that's running in the user story space, she wouldn't be able to come through web front end right now because of course I'm live debugging it. What I could do is create a child space of that user story space, maybe called Lisa and run just this service in that Lisa space and then I could live debug it all day long. Susie could still get to the user story version of the application running at the user story URL or of course to the teams version running at the default URL. But maybe I've communicated with her to let her know that I need to do this real quick. Hopefully it's just a quick bug and let's see what we can do here. All right, so when I clicked on about, of course it made another call into this code. I am now broken into the debugger and I am live debugging this service running in Kubernetes. Let's just go ahead and step through here and okay, so I'm getting my employee string and here, let's see, well, hmm, there is, let's go one more step here. If I look at full name here, now full name should have the first name and we did the split on comma, on the comma. It was expecting a list of employee names that were in the format last name comma first name but it should have put Peter's last name into the zero spot and Peter's first name into the one slot but it looked like it didn't do that. In fact, it looks like maybe the format of this data has changed. So rather than employee here being set to toth comma Peter, it's Peter toth comma. If I go back and looked at my stub data, I can see that it was toth comma Peter. So here's the problem is that employee search has apparently changed the format that it's using to return that employee name data to me and my code just needs to be updated in order to accommodate that. So just go ahead and continue here. When this comes back, I can just really quickly stop debugging and I'll just change this. This will be a little bit quick and dirty but I'll just change it to be a space delimiter and then I'll switch all these zeros to ones and ones to zeros. That explains why the alphabetization was off because it was alphabetizing based on the full name. So like Peter toth rather than just toth. All right, this looks good. I'm still gonna, I think I'm just gonna still have a trailing comma there at the end of the name but I will just at least make sure that I've identified the right problem here. I'm gonna warn you, I've been having DNS issues today and I'm a little concerned because it said in my output window here that the public DNS name was pending registration. Okay. So it's not pulling up here. I'll take a question and we'll come back to it and see if that DNS, the public DNS endpoint has gotten properly registered. Let's see, so we've got a question that Microsoft promotes AKS. Which orchestrator is better to create a microservices solution? Azure service fabric or AKS? That's a great question and it's one that we got a lot and I guess the answer is both would be my answer. It really depends on what you're trying to do. Each both AKS and Kubernetes in general and service fabric have different strengths and so certainly with AKS, a lot of people like that Kubernetes is open source and that there's a great community around Kubernetes, a lot of improvements that are being made within that community where sometimes we see people leaning towards service fabric or preferring service fabric is for example, if you have legacy Windows applications running on the .NET framework, you're not ready or maybe you're not able to migrate to .NET Core and Linux. You don't really have any options there on AKS. Today AKS is Linux only that of course implies .NET Core from a development perspective. So we see a lot of people looking at service fabric when they're in that situation. Service fabric also has some additional features such as stateful services that appeal to people just depending on what their application needs and what some of the requirements are. So they definitely coexist. They're both wonderful orchestration platforms and we're seeing tremendous adoption in both spaces but there's just some differences depending on what you're trying to do and what some of your preferences are. All right, let me see if our DNS has come back here. No, unfortunately it's not come back to show the update but hopefully you got the picture that I was able to very quickly run that my code in AKS. I was able to really do a full end-to-end test across my applications. So not just my service running with data that I had massaged myself but actually using data coming from other services. And you can imagine too if maybe the answer here rather than me updating my code was perhaps to go to my teammate Susie and say, hey, why did you stop returning data in the common delimited format? If Susie were to update her code I would see those updates right away and that would be another solution besides just, besides me updating my code. There are any other questions I can take those. I will also switch back to my slide deck quickly here and I just wanted to make sure to put up the URL for our documentation on Dev Spaces. So just a word on sort of where we're at. Dev Spaces is currently in public preview so you are welcome to go out. You can try everything that you've seen here today and everything that you need to get started is at this aka.ms slash get azds URL. We do have tutorials for .NET which I know is really interesting for this audience or what this audience is probably going to be mostly interested in. And again, you can either use Visual Studio as I was showing today or you can use Visual Studio code with .NET Core. In addition, we do have first class support for Node.js and for Java. Java is just recently announced or we just recently put that support out there so you're some of the first to know about that. And what I mean by first class support is everything that you saw me doing here today with being able to live debug services and press one click from Visual Studio or Visual Studio code to get code up and running in Kubernetes. There is also a command line interface for Dev Spaces and that can be used with any language. So another piece that I did not show today was that we have commands to create your Docker file to create your home chart for you so that you don't have to muck around with that or even know anything about those files. And that piece only works with these three supported languages right now with .NET Core, Node, and Java. But for example, if you had a go app and you already have a Docker file for it and you've already created a home chart or gotten it up and running in Kubernetes, you can use those artifacts to run that application in Dev Spaces as well and to get all of the routing features there. So as you saw in my demo, I said that I had this service that I was interacting with which was a Node app and I didn't have to ever build that or run that. It was just running up in my cluster and the same goes for absolutely anything that you can run in an AKS cluster. Yeah, so definitely check out the documentation here if you're interested in playing around with Dev Spaces. We've got quick starts and tutorials to walk you through the whole process. I'll wait a few more minutes to see if there are any other questions coming in. Otherwise, yeah, we can wrap up. Looks like that's it. All right, well, thank you very much and I hope to see all of you going and trying out Dev Spaces.
