when we take refuge with them from the evil within our souls and from the consumers of his deeds where my Allah Allah gives guidance to that in his need and the refuge in his need To take advantage of the time that we've had, remain I believe that about half a point in love for Ramadan We asked Allah to accept our fasts He accept your prayers, your recitation And reading of Quran and your singing at night تشاركك وكذلك all your good words during this month of Ramadan as a blessed season and we should realize it as an opportunity to re-set our spiritual clock or moral compass and hopes that beyond this month, Allah سبحانه وتعالى will الله يجب أن يدخلنا المساعدة والإمكانات لنا بإمكاناتنا قادمة للأمر. إن شاء الله هذا بالنسبة لي أن الله يكون لدينا حياة في المنه. وإن شاء الله أنه ينفق أمامنا المنه والأمر. عبد الله عبن مشتود رجل مهوان was a great Sahabi he was one of the first people to accept Islam in Mecca as a matter of fact, he was one of about six Muslims of the very first Muslims in Mecca of course being among the Prophet himself our mother Hadidah was the way عالينا بيطالد أبو بخص سديق وزيب الحديث من الله سبحانه وتعالى بيجهدهم وصول الله عالي على رسوله عالي السلام عبد الله المشتود was known as ابنه أمي عبد he was known as this among the Quraish he was the king identified with his mother and his father as well عبد الله المشتود was the very first Sahabi to actually come out publicly and recite the Qur'an in the midst of the Mushriqin after the Prophet ﷺ had done it he was the very first of them to do so and on one particular occasion the Sahaba were sitting around and they were wondering if it may be possible for them to bring this message to the Mushriqin this is before the Prophet ﷺ was given the command to publicly call his people but they had an idea is there a man among us who would go out to the Ka'bah and recite the Qur'an so the Mushriqin can hear it and no one wanted to take it on but Abu Ibn Massoud was young and he says I'll do it so they say well no no no we don't want you to do it because you don't have a tribe to protect you he wasn't a member of the Quraish his father himself was one who migrated there he had an alliance with one of the clans in Mecca so if you said you had an alliance when times of persecution like this occurred you really didn't have the tribe's protection even the one that you had the alliance with so they were fearful that he would come get hurt he said no I'll do it so he goes to the Ka'bah and he spots the Mushriqin in their gatherings and he starts بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم الرحمن أللو قرآن خلق قلنزان he starts to recite so the Mushriqin are looking at him and they hear something but they really don't know exactly what they're saying they say what was this little guy doing they say it over there and they say I think he's saying some of that stuff that Muhammad brought and once they realized this is what he was doing they attacked him they punched him in the face and he drove him away and he comes back to the Muslims and they say well this is what we feared what happened to you and they said I swear to God their kids they were like what we would say today it was like being hit by a little girl it really didn't mean anything they told me I'll go out tomorrow again once again if you want me to do this no no no don't do that but anyway Abdullah al-Mas'ud was a very important Sahabi not only because of the courage but also because of his knowledge that Abdullah al-Mas'ud he was a very very private and special student of Rasool Allah and sometimes the Prophet ﷺ would even ask him to recite the Quran for him and he would say well you want me to recite you're the one who we've revealed to you and the Prophet ﷺ would say yes I'd like to have others recited as me so Abdullah al-Mas'ud would recite for the Prophet ﷺ as well Abdullah al-Mas'ud was reported to have said later in his life a boasting of his knowledge of course with no sort of arrogance he would say that there's not a single verse of this Quran that was revealed except that I know when it was revealed where it was revealed and with regard to what incident it was revealed and of course word no one objected they acknowledged the knowledge of Abdullah al-Mas'ud I need to write I'm beginning with this short story about him because I want to share with you a quote from him about the Quran itself he reported to have said for our he said anytime you hear Abdullah say oh you believe then give it your full attention give it your full attention فهنه خيره يقرويه الشمرن ينه علمه because it is either that he is ordering you to do or it is evil that he is permitting you from permitting so anytime Allah says oh you believe give it your attention and all throughout this book كتاب الله الله سبحانه وتعالى over and over and over says yeah sometimes yeah throughout the Quran he is calling on the believers oh you who believe pay attention to what I'm about to say it duck Allah take a shield against Allah be conscious of Allah سبحانه وتعالى and so right away from the beginning is where first thing Allah typically will call us to after getting our attention is it duck Allah have consciousness and awareness for Allah سبحانه وتعالى why because تقوى is the key to unlocking the secrets of the Quran if you are not a person of تقوى then you really can't do that you really can't do that the Quran teaches us that that is that is a guidance for humanity and even in the verse which begins the discussion of asking Allah سبحانه وتعالى says yeah كتب عالي كمصيام كتب عالي لعلكم تتقوم that fasting not the fast of Ramadan but fasting has been prescribed for you is been ordained for you as it was ordained for those before you لعلكم تتقوم in order that you achieve تقوى what is تقوى تقوى is defined generally as two fundamental things one is the fulfillment of Allah's commandments and the avoidance of His prohibitions sometimes the commandments and prohibitions are related to outward acts some of them are inward acts things prohibitions of the hearts things that your heart are expected to comply with as well and that consult is a the summary of what تقوى is fundamental and the scholars they say to us they tell us that that is easier for them to avoid Allah's commandments than for them to avoid Allah's prohibitions isn't that the case right we are all fasts how many of you are fasts Allah says don't eat don't drink don't torture thousands during the day time it's some kind of thing that can be hard all of those or some of them it's going to be hard but there's great reward in avoiding the prohibitions of Allah's and this because I'm actually on this issue of prohibitions it wants to clear a misunderstanding that I come across from time to time unfortunately it's a minority of Muslims who would think that simply because a woman is unable to fast and pray that means that men themselves have a particular advantage over them with regard to the number of acts of worship that they are to do thinking that because of the increase in numbers it is necessarily an increase in closeness to Allah so I don't know who it's out but a woman can pray and fast if she wants to I don't care what the law says I'm going to fast in you I'm going to pray anyway even though I have my cycle but she avoids the prohibition right and so the prohibition itself there's great reward in avoiding the prohibition then fulfilling the man who's Allah SWT but at any rate Allah SWT is calling us to be conscious of him to be people of Tuqwa and he tells us elsewhere and cooperates in a bill which is righteousness in its broadest sense and in Tuqwa or one way you can see this is that Tuqwa itself is a sub-category of bill or Tuqwa is a means to a bill and bill itself is a means seeing something beyond beyond that this is why the Prophet SWT said said about yourselves to honesty about yourself to honesty about yourself to honesty because honesty it leaves to Bir but in the Bir and at Bir it leaves to Jannah Bir or righteousness in its most general sense it leaves to Jannah and in one there is in Fila-Huida Allah it leads to God's satisfaction that the Prophet SWT has come to us but if someone to give us a whole bunch of rules do's and don'ts we know that especially when it comes to like basic financial transactions call the Abu Bakr and the Abu Bakr says that that they actually are about 56 financial transactions which are prohibited all others are permissible that be presumptive so basically you can count the number of things that are prohibited everything else the things that are permitted are many more than the things that are forbidden but the Prophet SWT his ultimate mission was to help us to perfect our humanity to show us how we were to perfect our humanity and this is why he said in the famous I've been sent for nothing more than to perfect or noble conduct the noble characteristics of a lot or conduct and behavior and in other narratives I've been sent as nothing more than a teacher معلوم and معلوم is not simply someone who as we would generally understand to be a teacher when standing in a classroom taking your math problem but a معلوم is someone who leaves an impression on your heart who leaves who makes a mark on the individual معلوم this is why in the Arabic language not only means instruction it means to actually leave a trace or a mark or a sign on someone to leave an alama on something and this is why every ayah is an alama a design of Allah SWT all of them they point to a law's existence or point to a law's power or a law's life among other things that is fundamentally the rule and the teacher is to leave this make this mark an impression on the individual إِنَّ مَا بِعِتُوا لَا فُبْعَسَ اللَّعَانَا I would not sit as a one to curse others إِنَّ مَا بِعِتُوا دَارِي مُرَحْبَةَ I've been sent as an inviter and as a as a mercy that is what the Prophet ﷺ was sent and that is to say in a point from the ministry he just sent me that that we as people we know that there's a difference between one who who says something and another who acts upon what they says that you walk your talk that we don't respect people who say things and they don't do others that you may be in a position of prestige you may have a prestigious career you may be a great politician or an athlete or an entertainer or you may be a great educator but at the end of the day what matters to Allah ﷺ is how good of a person you are but how do we know you're a good person by the way that you treat others by the way that you talk to others it's not only talking about the people when you're in contact occasionally like in the ministry writing to your home with your spouse with your children with your peers with your neighbors with your cousins with your uncles how do you talk to them how do you treat them are you charitable towards them and this is something that you're perfecting your humanity that is what Ramadan and fasting are all about about perfecting our humanity it's not just simply a thing that Muslims do it's just one of our customs yeah it is a custom but it's also worship but it has a goal the goal is to perfect our humanity to protect our conduct and if we put too much reliance on our actions we're told that it is a type of subtle idolatry that is even to the extent that if you were to believe that look how many prayers I've made one time look how many months of Ramadan I've fasted look how many times I've made hunts look how much charity I have given Allah has to give me Allah doesn't have to do anything He doesn't have to do anything for you and if you see another person who may do none of those different things mother of those things Allah has to put that person in the hellfire no Allah does not have to do anything that you want for him to do that is only out of his grace he gives you a promise of course Allah doesn't break this promise but this is not a thing where Allah has compelled to do anything and so when you think okay these are the things that Allah is going to guarantee but automatically give me what I'm seeking that we have to make sure to be very careful about this because we can be placing too much reliance on the act itself too much reliance on the act itself Allah wants us to come out in a certain condition He wants us to be certain types of people He wants us to be people who want to do good even when we have the opportunity to do so He wants us to be people who don't want to do bad things even when we have the opportunity to do so that is what He wants us to become people of virtue people of virtue in this state is what we call a birr a birr of supreme and universal this is what Allah is going to teach who teaches it in the Quran he says when will you have come people who worship what motherly be when I came the birr man that birr it is not birr that you turn your faces they Easter wefts but it is birr those who believe in Allah and the last day the angels and messengers and the books when I said when I came the birr when I'm the father and give wealth out of Islam out of love for Him to relatives to the orks to the poor to in the way of in order step 3 slaves to those who ice and the travelers and those who pray and establishes a prayer وهم يتحدثون بقوة أخوات تقوى وقوات أخوات تقوى. ولكن هناك نعرف أن الله سبحانه وتعالى يجعل هذه التصميم بين نحو نقل ونقوم. أن أقوم بقوة الأخوات. ولكن حتى إذا كانت أقوم بقوة أخوات تقوى أن أقوم بقوة أخوة الأخوات. أقوم بقوة أخوة الأخوات هو أننا نحب أن نردو بقوة أخوة أخوة. أنه يتفكير حياتنا وإصدقائنا بإيجاد أفضل أفضل أخبارنا ويصدقائنا على كيف نحن تساعدنا هذه الأخبار لذلك نسألنا بحياتنا أخبارنا حتى نستطيع أن نستطيع أن نحصل على أخبارنا ومع بلداء من هذه الحياة قبل أن نتعيش هذه الأمور ونسألنا أن نسجلنا إلى أعياننا على محاولة أعياننا وصف رب الله قريب ولك المريسة المسلمين المسلمات وصف الحمد لله رب العالمين والصلاة والسلام على أشهر المضيات أسي المسلمين الذين أحملهم على أثاني المسحر المعين هو أمام فائقه للخطر ومعينة الهيود ومحاولة هو مواقع زميب أو حقم زميب وكانوا أسيهم والفعل أبقائت جميلة او جميلة و بل بير is interesting especially when we compare to its hotlates that we have in the Arabic language a number of words which relate to this and so one word is بان is the opposite of البحر the land as opposed to the sea and every one of the words that are connected with بير indicate what the Arabs call a توصف a type of expansion or opening up for others because the land itself is spacious and expands enough for people to live upon so Allah refers to the land as an above He refers to the most expensive and perhaps the most utilized of all staples ويت as a بور which also connects with it to the word بير الله is one of His names as بان which means that مكوصير will be the one is the one who proliferates rewards that He grants so many different opportunities to reward us that He gives us a five compulsory acts and He gives us the voluntary acts and then He rewards each act according to a different type of criteria some acts He only gives us 1.4 some He gives us 10.4 some He gives 700.4 some of them He leaves rewards for us to find out مكوصير in particular the facts as it says that the fastest reward is 700 but exactly how much we will find out when we meet Allah سبحانه وتعالى but Allah also beyond that Allah سبحانه وتعالى He creates seasons for a great reward رمامان goodness in رمامان it's not like doing things outside of the رمامان it's the same thing for the sacred months of إسلام just as sin as well during these months it's considered to be by many the scholars to be greater more severe than they are outside of these months Allah سبحانه وتعالى He creates certain places where He magnifies these for us like مكو right how long is not like سلاف here or the مشد نبولي so I think that Allah سبحانه وتعالى is one of His names that He is one who proliferates reward that He gives us expansion and spacing opportunity to a match reward and so many different levels that He gave us of جهنم or seven that He gave us of جهنر or eight which will give more opportunities for us to gain closeness to Allah سبحانه وتعالى but the human being it also is called as and the human being is referred to as as باك or a person who is as باك is an individual who is as مصور what is that a person who proliferates acts of obedience and worship how much worship are we committed how much worship do we do on a regular basis and I'm not only talking about again the سلاف and our or our regular charity or the fast of Ramadan but how often do you smile on your brother or your sister's face how often do you treat your family to a happy day or a day out and you enjoy yourselves how often do you lower your tone when you talk to one another how hard do you try not to be abrasive to others how often do you share kind words or kind experience with someone else how often do you console someone who has died or has a family member who has died how often do you visit them when they are sick so what types of these are involved in what type of acts of worship are they involved in so all of these are examples of words that are connected with what we call and build and to what sect and to what sect and so we ask الله سبحانه وتعالى that He أدخلنا among the Abraham and this is why we find in Quran that الله سبحانه وتعالى He says of the Abraham إنه أبرارا لفنعين the Abraham they are in lists وإنه تجارا لخيج أكين and the wicked they are in a blazing fire the Abraham are in lists and the wicked are in a blazing fire أخلا إنه كتابة أبراري لفنعين the record of the Abraham is in a place called an ADD a higher place so we ask Allah the places among the Abraham were directed among them among the Abraham Allah we ask you to forgive us and to guide us and to assist us in everything that we do well Allah please accept our fasts please accept our fasting please accept our prayers please accept our charities Allah please allow for us to increase our worship and come close to you than this best month and we ask from Allah to grant us tough work and utilize that tough work to reach the بقام of the book and through the book there will be a change in our satisfaction إنه الله والله ملاكك سوف يصندون على إنه لي يا إله إلا إلا إلا يصندون عليه وصلينا وصدنا ربنا تقبل إنه كأن تسمع إنه كأن تسمع عدينا وصبعنا لا إنه كأن تتواب الراكين ربنا تحبب مننا سيامنا اللهم تحبب مننا سيامنا اللهم تحبب مننا

رحمه رحمي محمد صراحة


what's going on guys it's your boy DPS here today with another destiny video now yesterday we got the latest patch which affected classes and a few other things in today's video i'm going to go through absolutely everything you need to know now if you missed this bungee weekly update i will link in the video description so you guys can check it out and read through it or if you want and now i may rant in this video because there are a few things i don't really agree on but still it is what it is but getting straight into it and these are the changes that have been made to our sub classes okay so for the titan and sunbreaker and the hammer of soul super hammer travel speed increased by 1.3% like that thing went fast enough hammer detonation radius increased by 10% what the fuck damage increased by 10% against a i combatants i mean that's fine it's pve but detonation radius and increased travel speed damn the striker the fist of havoc base damage increased by 50% and an additional 50% against a i combatants to be honest though as much as it sounds crazy a 50% damage increased in pvp i mean i never sponge the fist of havoc anyway so if that shit goes off anywhere near me i always die so adding 50% ain't gonna do anything for me the radius hasn't changed so it is what it is and an additional 50% against a i combatants that's a good thing it really is okay now for the defender grenades have been changed the spike grenade damage impulses per second reduced to five from 10 and damage per impulse increased by 100% but total damage is unchanged okay so moving on to the hunter and the gunslinger now the grenades swarm grenades increase arming radius by 0.5 meters detonation damage increased by 7% tripmines no longer attaches to targets arms unimpact then balances and attaches to terrain man i used to love sticking people with my tripmine what the fuck i don't agree with this change tripmine damage reduced by 3% now a lot of the time me playing pvp i don't always kill somebody with the tripmines straight away a lot of the time i leave them with a little health i mean what we're seeing here is a tripmine may not kill somebody with a direct hit if they've got full health but i'll have to test it out i'm actually certain on that now moving on to the gunslinger super the golden gun base damage increased by 50% and an additional 30% against a i combatants again if i hit somebody with a direct hit they die all the time but then again how will this affect at range because i'll be hit somebody with a golden gun at range and it hasn't killed them which is crazy i know now dead eye now increases golden gun damage by an additional 30% now the gunslinger's melee the throwing knife base damage reduced by 10% now i said something about this in my video the other day i think if you hit somebody in the head with a throwing knife it should kill them i don't know why they're reducing the damage of the throwing knife that don't make sense to me the circle of life modified functionality precision kills with a throwing knife reduced to cooldown of the golden gun circle of life change again no longer extends duration of golden gun and another circle of life change plus one armor removed now passive changes and we have scavenger increase the amount of grenade and melee energy rewarded by 33% moving on to the hunter's blade dancer and grenades skip grenade tracking time reduced to eight seconds from 12 seconds and the detonation damage reduced by 13% another change blink now incurs a minus one recovery penalty don't really use blink anyway so that won't really affect me but i do see a lot of people using blink in pvp so if you have felt this difference let me know down below moving on to the super and art blade change to be less about repeatedly swinging and more about decisive strikes with additional effectiveness a base duration increased by two seconds hit detection test range increased by 0.5 meters damage increased by 30 against a i combatants great finally we can use blade dancer in pve that's a great change added a 0.8 second cooldown between art blade swings while airborne energy cost per swing increased by 80% what the fuck oh but this is good energy cost unhit decreased by 20% that basically changes the point that people can chase you swinging with their fucking blade dancer that happens to me so often i hear a hunter pop that blade dancer i see him and i try and run for my life but he catches up with me because he's swinging in mid air this hopefully will stop that moving on a change to the vanish now causes the player to vanish uncast in addition to its normal functionality and show stopper damage radius extended by one meter moving on to the melee and the blink strike launch distance decreased by 0.4 meters and backstab valid backstab angle reduced by 30 degrees now this is good because i like the time blink strike i seem like i get blink striped from in front so if they've reduced the angle this is great escape artist invisibility effect delayed by 0.2 seconds and fast twitch recharge reduced by 22% now moving on to the passive to do with the subcast encore killing an enemy with art blade now extends its duration and grants a 150 increase to art blade damage for a short time this again you don't really see people sponging the art blade in pvp so it's a great change for that pve all in all i think the changes to the blade dancer benefit pve a lot more but some of the changes made that will affect pvp are great in my opinion moving on to the night stalker and grenades skip grenade damage impulses per second reduced to 5 from 10 and damage per impulse increased by 100 total damage unchanged now changes to the shadow shot super now applies a suppression effect on impact moving on to the melee and the smoke changed to be less frustrating to play against in pvp but more effective in pve impact damage increased by 34% impact suppression and damage over time reduced by one per second jumped to pressure removed from initial impact status effects unupgraded smoke cloud duration increased by one second cloud duration increased by one second and jumped to pressure removed from cloud status effects vanishing smoke plus one agility removed and snare cloud duration increased by one second now the passive to do with this night stalker subclass coach of the pack now increases recovery armor and agility by two per stack coach of the pack now stacks three times lockdown now increases smoke duration by two seconds with a plus two additional seconds with the snare upgrade predator now reduces the cooldown of the shadow shot ability and shade step moved to a single dodge on a three second cooldown me being a hunter and hunter masterclass all day long i agree with this change i mean i hate playing against hunters in pvp and they shoot and roll shoot and roll it's so fucking annoying and i know a lot of people use it and use it to their advantage and they're gonna hate this change if you're one of them people let me know down below in that comment section but to me i think it's a great change i really do moving on to the warlock and we're gonna start with a sunsinger and its grenades fireball increased arming time by 0.2 seconds and fireball again decreased victim search radius by one meter which is a fucking great thing that thing seems to hit me across the damn map now with the melee and the scotch and the flame shield a 0.3 second delay added before the over shield activation passives fiking funeral no longer extends the duration of ignite effects and now weakens targets afflicted with ignite effects causing them to take five percent more damage from all sources stacking up to three times moving on to the void walker and its glide blink now incures a minus one recovery penalty and the super the nova bomb base damage increased by 50% and an additional 50% against a i combatants and lance now increases nova bomb damage by an additional 25% and that is it guys that is the changes made to the subclasses with this latest update but they've also made weapon changes as well which i will go through now to fix an issue with the year two version of the thunderlord where it was not available to some players in the chaos fix an issue with incorrect ui bios were displayed on red spectre fix an issue where exotic machine run stability was ignoring the base stats for recoil this affected the thunderlord and the super good advice fix an issue where the fighters of jasmine did not have the adjusted zoom for sniper rifles introduced with a 2.2.0 patch and increased the inventory stat by 10 auto rifles reduced damage of high rate of fire auto rifles by six percent this is the soul stealer's claw and the dark arena passing and that hardcore weapon which i can't think of its name at the precise moment in time hand cannons increased initial accuracy and increased accuracy drop for low range hand cannons made damage fall off curves steeper to better coincide with intended effective range of hand cannons and small increases to pve damage to all hand cannons a mag low depends on their enemy class ammo it now takes less time for your ghost to automatically grab ammo for you when you're running low on ammo this is a change for pve now a lot of people don't actually know that your ghost grabs you ammo yet we've been at that stage where you have no ammo on any of your weapons and all of a sudden you get that ammo up here that is your ghost grabbing your ammo and this change just makes it happen quicker change your two exotics a slight reduction to hawkman stability with a minus five decrease and perks slight reduction to counterbalance effectiveness reduces 80 percent of recoil angle instead of 90 percent which ain't too bad of a change and a change to a single armor which will be an exotic and that being the twilight garrison moved tactical air support ability to a single dodge on a three second cooldown now i don't know about you guys but i'm sick and tired of titans being able to dodge like i'm off a fucking fly when i'm trying to shoot them in mid air they will still be able to dodge but not to the effectiveness they could before so this is a great change in my opinion and it's absolutely pissing down outside and i apologize if you can hear that through the mic now there's also been changes to activities which i will go through as well starting with missions the alternate ending two paradox can now be completed at any time by selecting it from the director and the heroic difficulty which is great the alternate ending to last two light can now be completed at any time by selecting it from the directory and that heroic difficulty the firewall mission will now be available as soon as the player has turned in their required items to access it changes to prison of elders the level 41 prison of elders arena activity tooltip now properly indicates remaining weekly legacy mark rewards these weekly legendary mark rewards are shared with the weekly heroic playlist and maybe earned from either activity challenger of the elders and where value scores in patient point deduction now goes more severe the longer you are in a given section and actual points deducted is actually 50 times the number of times he has grown in patients changes to the crucible all weekly rotation activities in crucible now feature weekly rewards fix an issue where the trials of the size boom icons from house of rules persisted after deleting a trials passage and item changes three new chrome colors have been added orange magenta and green these have a chance to be found in sterling treasure or from dismantling the spectre gear set fix an issue where players if not all the taken king could purchase sterling treasures from eververse desolate class items are now collectively listed as guaranteed items instead of possible on sterling treasure previews fix an issue where the daily heroic story missions that were from the house of rules were not properly awarded legendary marks fix an issue where the kickstands email was not displaying proper announcement text fix an issue where values would not sell the dreadful sword if the player obtained and dismantled the sword on all characters and last but not least ui fix an issue where equipping the armor vows new monarchy ship caused a false postmaster notification and your friends are now displayed in the director when hovering over activities they are currently playing and guys that is it for this latest update the 2.3.0 let me know your opinions and any changes which are of interest of you down below in that comment section thanks for stopping by as always do smash that like button i'll do a poetry eight the support and i'll catch you guys on that next one always


Let's talk about it, David. Are you saying that people are trying to pender to the Filipino audience for views? Just like why we are enjoying these Cebu's Lucky's premium dried mangoes? Are you Filipino baiting right now? I might be. I'm just kidding, guys. You're doing it right now. I'm doing it. Damn it. Yo, today, guys, we are shouting out to the Filipino audience because we're talking about the range of reactions that they had within their community. Like I said, I'm not one at all that holds any weight within that world. I'm just bringing it up. We're talking about Cameron Diaz saying that she ate lumpia rice in adobo every day. That clip is going viral right now. We're talking about Olivia Rodrigo being hailed as the first Filipino-American to be on the cover of American Vogue. Brett Rockman or Bretman Rock was on the Filipino Vogue. We're talking about Anna Cruz Kane being considered Filipino representation by some, but not by others. Saweetie, Bruno Mars, and even American tourists acting bad in the Philippines. What do these all have to do with each other? Let's talk about, we'll go into the comments section. Please hit that like button. Check out other episodes of the Hot Pop Boys. All right, so real quick, let's run each clip. We'll break it down and see what the comments were kind of like. The first one is Cameron Diaz. I grew up with a lot of Filipinos. Really? Yes. My best friend that I grew up next door to, her mother was from the Philippines. The Philippines, yeah. And I, Lumpia, Adobo. I ate it every single day. And you kept your figure eating Adobo and Lumpia and rice? Rice, all the time. Her mom made the best rice. I just go. What do you think, Andrew? What do you, did you ever think you would see Cameron Diaz say yes?  My neighbors were Filipino. I'm not Filipino and I'm not the gatekeeper to anything, but I feel like she really did eat Filipino food. Maybe not every day.  I think she's half Cuban, so maybe that does make her a little bit more open to like, I don't know, other Spanish colonies or something. But yeah, I mean, she did do the accent, so I think she's heard it. She's been around it. Yeah, but I would say most people in the Philippines, Andrew, from what I could tell on the internet comments section, were a fan of it. They were like, they liked it more, but some Filipino Americans were like, this was kind of cringe.  I thought she gave it an authentic effort, but you could tell that she was kind of like, yeah, yeah, I love Lumpia and Adobo, and she was really tapping into that memory. Do you think that a lot of people have the sense in Cameron Diaz felt that, that like, obviously they were like a Filipino audience is like looking for people to validate them? Or they have a love, because obviously, if you guys know the history of the Philippines it was a Spanish colony, then it was an American colony. They have a very deep reverence or love for American media pop cultural icons. Oh yeah, I mean, I totally understand why Filipino baiting exists, because it's such a market for entertainment that anytime you wanna show them love, you'll get like an influx of views from the Philippines. Every YouTuber knows this. Every YouTuber knows this. It also happens with India, you know, big countries. Pumped the views, right? Yeah, big countries, but not pumped the views. It's not like fake views, it's just views from another country, you know what I mean? Yeah. Moving on, Andrew to Olivia Rodrigo being held the first Filipino American to be on the cover of Vogue. This one definitely got the Phil Ames versus the Filipinos. There was a range of opinions. This was a debate. So a lot of people in the comments, David, are generally essentially saying like, oh, Olivia Rodrigo, I didn't even know she was Filipino.  So she counts. I'm part Filipina. On my dad's side of the family, my Filipino heritage comes from my great-grandfather. Or, and some people are like, Lumpia is always kind of the go-to. You just say, hey, man, I'm mad Lumpia growing up. Yeah. And then I think the other range of comments is like, yeah, well, even if she said she likes Lumpia, what does that really mean? She didn't like do any work with Filipino artists. Right, where is the line, right? How deep, you got to be in a deniguan? You got to, that would be more advanced, right? Somebody said, we just love celebrating part Asian people who don't even celebrate being part Asian unless there is a media monetary benefit. Do you think this is true? Because I guess society's changing and more people are, you know what I mean? People don't, they're claiming they're non-white side more than ever. Yeah, because I guess, I didn't say this, but a lot of people think like being white is not cool anymore. First of all, being white is still great, guys. Let me just tell you this. I can still see it with my own eyes. It's still good, but anyways, it's not as, it doesn't have the cache, so then playing up your ethnic side is cooler now. So a lot of people, some people are accusing Olivia Rodrigo by playing up her Filipino side now, you know. But it doesn't mean, so even if it's true that it became more trending and acceptable society-wise or in Hollywood to rep that side, it doesn't mean that she doesn't actually feel more proud of it as well, right? Because people change over time, right? Guys, listen, in 2023, it is a lot easier to be publicly proud of being ethnic than it was 15 years ago. 15 years ago, it was a lot harder to do that. It was a lot more frowned upon. You didn't know if it was gonna hurt your marketing, but nowadays, I think generally people believe it is a positive. Right, so just because you do something, you can't always assume the worst intentions about it, but clearly a lot of people become proud of their ethnic side if they're half white over time. Again, guys, we are not gatekeepers to who is Filipino. We're just sharing our thoughts. Awesome, David, this one comment said, man, Filipinos are the only Asians that use the one drop rule. Obviously, that came from the black American experience and the black American identity, which varies country to country, right? Even how people identify based off visual, I guess, phenotype or whatever. Yeah, I would say there's a range. I would say Koreans are almost like the strictest Koreans and Japanese. Then I would say Chinese, obviously, have been opening up a little bit with Eileen Gu. You know what I mean? More so, you've started to see lately, but even Roy Hachimora, Naomi Osaka, but I would say that in my opinion, Filipinos, they'll take a quarter or an eighth.  A big Disney fan said, hey, man, she's more Filipino to me than Bruno Mars, especially on the Disney channel video where she talks about her heritage and having a song with her Lola on the high school musical series. So I guess it's been around, but I guess nowadays maybe there's an option that she could collaborate with a Filipino artist, promote them or collaborate with an Asian artist. I know she's been trying to collaborate. She's good friends with Rose from Blackpink, I think, and things like this. Like those are also big points that you can score. You know what I'm saying? I think Bruno Mars for a long time, a lot of the Phil Ames I knew or Filipino Americans were kind of questioning how deep Bruno Mars' love for his Filipino side was. I felt like he more went with like Hawaiian Puerto Rican, but he did recently do a concert in the Philippines where he said, and it's still Miss Nekita Mahal. Miss Nekita Mahal. You don't believe me yet? Yeah, so I would say a lot of the people generally believe that Bruno Mars has been leaning into his Filipino side now, that his kind of like, I guess I would say his career has peaked in America, even though he's had an amazing career, but, and then now he's like maybe on his world tour trying to gather up whatever fans he can at the end. Again, that's not necessarily wrong because he is Filipino. It's so difficult to say because society has changed along with the marketability. So was it society changing or was it strictly like a marketing, equation, algorithm change? Like I said, guys, somebody said these Filipinos that are mixed look more Filipino to me than Joe Coy, but Joe Coy clearly does the work. We're talking about the comedian Joe Coy because Andrew, it does seem like Joe Coy really sinks his teeth deep into the culture, right? But how much is it about the work? Because Joe Coy definitely does do the work. There might be people who maybe even visually pass more than him, but he's, you know what I mean? Like he's out there. I do think it's a lot of the work. I think the work has to come from an authentic place. You know, obviously we just did a video about being trans-racial, so that's a whole funny conversation to have right there. But no, it does, the work has to come from an authentic place. David, there's this one comment that was pointing out about Olivia Rodrigo being on the cover of Vogue and being touted as the first Filipino. It says, yo, she's American just because she has Filipino ancestry. Why do people call her Filipino? Like she's from the Philippines. Right, right.  I believe her dad is 75% Filipino. So technically, I guess in a way she'd be more European than even Filipino if you want to get technical, but because this person is like, they're probably mad that somebody that was, I guess previously white or default American has been, I guess in a media title sense taken away out of the white pool now, I don't know.  Or the white American identity. Even though you are clearly American. Like, that's like us being- But she's clearly more Americanized than she is Filipino probably. Yeah, but David, would it be accurate if we got touted as the first Chinese sibling duo on YouTube to get two million subscribers? If you just said first Chinese, that's not wrong, but it's not fully accurate because we'd be Chinese American, we're not from China. You know what I mean? But double dragons had millions of views before us. It was a cartoon. Double dragons. Anyway guys, somebody says, what about people who are not Filipino but identify as Filipino? This is bringing in the transracialism or whatever. Or are they talking about growing up in Seattle, David, when we wanted to be Filipino because our Filipino friends were living better Asian lives. Yo, man, if you had the old school Asian parents that are like in their 70s, now they Filipinos were like the only kids allowed to have fun. They would come up, we'd be break dancing doing windmills and all types of down rock and they'd come out to be like, oh, Randy, you and your friends are break dancing in the garage again. Here's some instant noodles for everybody.  You could go in there, take a scoop, eat some of the food. Get some pandasol, yeah. Oh my gosh, you know like. Are we Filipino fishing right now? We're doing it again. No, I'm just being honest. We're just keeping the rules. Hey, if you know South Seattle, you know how to. I'm just being like Cameron Diaz. I really did it. I really, I was in a debut guys. So, Andrew, there was also a clip of American tourists kind of acting crazy in the Philippines spitting off of a tourist site. Let's run that clip. This generated a little bit of anger, but then it also brought everything to a geopolitical discussion. Our Philippines was more accepted in America because they're more geopolitically, you know, because they were once an American colony, they speak English as a national language there along with Tagalog. Someone said, man, it is a shame that the Filipinos who are greatly loyal to the great country of America are put in the same box as the Chinese and Japanese whose loyalties are always in question. So this, this brought everything to this geopolitical place because obviously America fought a war against Japan. China now was framed as a new, almost like Cold War enemy. But that would never probably happen to the Philippines, right? Yeah, yeah. I guess, I guess I could see if Filipinos are like, you know, we are so tired of being called Chinese that we need to recognize everybody who is even part Filipino so that people know Filipinos are not Chinese. You can trust us with the secrets. We won't send them back to Beijing. If that's the case, I don't know. But anyways, I'm not speaking for Filipinos. But of course, you know, there's a mix of opinions, Andrew, there's a lot of Phil Ames that we grew up with, you know, South Seattle produced a lot of activists that are like end American colonialism, you know what I mean? Like there's a lot of so many things. And somebody said, I got a feeling that these white kids' parents took American exceptionalism a little too literally. Why are these people coming to the Philippines acting like they own the place and disrespect the place? Yeah. All right, David, to kind of wrap this up, first of all, let us know in the comments down below what you think about all this. Like, is there a minimum things that you have to do to be counted as Filipino? We are the ones to ever decide that. You guys decide. And like I said, there's just a split within the Filipino community. And there's a difference between how Phil Ames are thinking and the Filipinos in the Philippines. Well, what I will say this is from my perspective, and this goes for any type of part Asian person or Asian person who's trying to claim a certain Asian thing. It's like, you can claim whatever you want as yourself, right? You can identify as that, right? And other people can, but I guess you don't expect all other Asians to recognize that person as like the most Asian person ever. Like, it's gonna be hard for me to look at Olivia Rodrigo and be like, that's the Asian pop star queen. Thank you, Olivia. Like, she can be Filipino. She can be of Filipino heritage. That's fine. I'm not taking that away because that's not my job and nor can anybody take anything away. It's kind of like Jordan Clarkson being an Asian basketball player. He's definitely Asian. He's definitely Filipino. But if you made me say whose impact on the Asian sports world had a bigger impact, was it Jeremy Lin or Jordan Clarkson? Of course it was Jeremy Lin. Right, and that's why you're like, I think that they would look at Kobe Parris, or not Kobe Parris, I'm sorry. Who's the tall guy coming out? Yeah, Kobe Parris, right? Who's the guy that's coming out? There's a seven three guy coming out of the Philippines like Kaisoto. That's what I meant to say. Yeah, Kobe Parris. But I think once Jordan Clarkson played for the Filipino national team, to me, he was doing the work. Yeah. And he's probably doing a lot of work that Jalen Green, to be honest, doesn't seem as interested in doing, which is fine. It's just about, at that point, it's just about the work because I think like, if visually you don't look Filipino, that's fine. If you visually don't look Chinese, whatever. But what work are you showing instead? And by the way, Andrew, not to toot our own horn, we may be the first people to have ever talked to Saweetie on media about her Asian heritage. Oh yeah. Because she's part of Filipino and Chinese. Dude, we're gonna play the clip. No, I never even knew we had a month, to be honest. So you do identify as part Asian, correct? I do. I'm black, Chinese and Filipino. Okay, very cool. Dude, she said she had never heard of Asian heritage month until we told her that was a clip from years ago. Saweetie is Filipino, I've looked into it. She's eating Filipino food. She can say some Filipino phrases. Always talks about her mom being Filipino. I think she counts. I'll tell you this guys, I have studied a lot of different countries in Asia, probably way more than your average Asian-American has. Every country has a different relationship with the Western world. Every country has a different relationship with America. And those are gonna determine different patterns of thinking. I mean, every country in Asia has a different history with multiculturalism as well. Because a lot of people in the Philippines, I saw this comment saying, but people here can look like Olivia Rodrigo because there's a lot of Chinese, Spanish, Indian. There's a lot of different bloodlines in the Philippines. So you know what I mean? So it goes to show you every place is different and I don't wanna take that away from anybody but you guys, let me know what you think in the comment section below. Why does all this news talking about Filipino-Americans or people who are part Filipinos always go super viral? And can people exploit it? Or are they just like rocking with something that more people want more of? Oh, hey David, is that your favorite mango brand there? Yes. Oh my gosh, David, you have Cebuz. Cebuz Lucky. You're doing it right now, bro. You're doing it right now. Give me some. No, seriously, let me try the mangoes. I actually like the other brand a little bit better. You like the Philippines. This one was quite sweet. No, you like the brand called the Philippines. Let us know what you think in the comment section below, guys, from Silly to Serious. Until next time, we're the hotpot boys. We out. Peace.


So I'm really excited with the OMOO Development Program that we've got on the books at the moment. We've actually talked about it for a long time, but we actually haven't delivered. So this is the first time and opportunity we've had to deliver, what I think is a really exciting program. And I think it's an exciting program because while we can give people all the competencies and technical skills, there's elements to the job. These are senior leadership roles in the field that support both volunteers and career staff. And that can be really complex. And this is the first time that we've actually got a program that will help them along their journey, which is well and above just the competency component. And it's drawing on the peer program. People have been doing it for a while. It's not just, hey, congratulations here. You got a job and away you go. This is about, hey, congratulations. You got a job and we're going to help you grow into your job as well. And I think that has been, if it's not only for the individuals, not only to the volunteers and the career staff of these guys and girls support, but it essentially to the whole organization, I just think it's such an important thing that we're doing. And I'm so excited that we've finally got it off the ground after the period of time we've talked about it. So the feedback has wholeheartedly been, this has been a long time coming. And we need to make sure that this can continue for the future of CFA until maybe it's a point that it's business as usual and we're continuing to extend our thinking on leadership. But I've only got to spend the shortest amount of time with the group and it seemed to me to be incredibly positive for our organization. So at this stage, we've got a group of really engaged people. We really need their feedback. We're looking to run it through to July and then we'll take it from there. There are some great stages coming for that group. So important training, such as media training, which will be happening on the 14th of November. And that is an essential skill for all of our leaders, myself included. So really hoping that participants get a lot out of that. And we'll continue to develop and grow the program in terms of a toolkit to be developed for all of our OOs that has been developed in the past, but has been a bit ad hoc. So we're looking at rolling out something that is really there for our people when they step into the role. The organizing program staff have looked at matching the mentors and the mentors together. So I found when I was connected with my mentor that there was some similar background, some similar life experiences. I suppose the most notable thing was that we both had a similar set of values in terms of how we do our job. So it was really, really quite rewarding. I think we're both pretty optimistic about the program and how it worked together. If I reflect back on my transition to becoming an operations officer about 13 years ago, I can see now how a beneficial program like this will be. And so it's actually, yeah, I'm pretty optimistic that we can do some good stuff here. And a message from the deputy made a lot of sense in respect to moving into a new position where you had a lot of self-doubt. That you may not be prepared for that position, but until you commence your role, you can't really improve or fulfill that role until you are in it. And that made a lot of sense, but what this program helps provide a bit of certainty as to some support and preparation to assist you in a new role. And that link has been missing in the past. So it's given us the opportunity to bounce questions off each other, which they have other people have answers for, or they've experienced that themselves at their brigade or within their catchment. So having that information readily available, or even just being able to pick up the phone and contact the mentor, and just ask him a question whether they have experienced it to be able to give you a bit of guidance on which way you're going to travel. I think the program gives us the opportunity to broaden our networking and understanding of the various roles that our positions as operations officers undertake within the organisations. And then share the challenges and experiences that we've had so that people can put them into their toolkit, so to speak, and use them to progress their way through their career and deal with what they have to do on a day-by-day basis. It's interesting for me, so I was obviously a long-time volunteer, a long-time career firefighter, and I had my tickets as a truck driver and a breathing apparatus and the latter platforms and things such as that. At no stage really, unfortunately in our development, were we given leadership training. Yet when we kept promoted off station, what's my role? It's not so much driving trucks. I haven't driven a truck for years, but it is about how you lead an organisation or a community. It is a leadership role that we're required to play for a broad community base, and we need to help develop our people to go on that journey. I think it's so exciting and, to be honest, so important for the development, not just for the individuals but for our volunteers, our career staff, our brigade, our organisation, and ultimately to the state and the community we serve.


Good morning. It's 1115 people are still coming in, but we'll just start anyway. Good morning I would like to introduce the latecomers personally so Francesco great to be a great see you here welcome So I'm gonna talk a bit about our migration for a rubber amongst migration from a monolith to a microservices platform And the way and the way we did that before I go into that. I do need to tell you a bit about rubber bank I guess I See the first few rows in the Netherlands. You see the orange shirts. They're all Dutch So they they know rubber bank, but actually when you're come outside of the Netherlands Robbock isn't that well known So to give you a bit of insight on that Robbock is actually One of the one of the biggest banks in the world for food and Agri But we have our roots in the Netherlands So we are active in 39 countries with 1.2 million customers worldwide except for the Netherlands and in the Netherlands alone We have 7 million people. Well, we're here in Europe So you all know what the Netherlands are of two weeks ago I was in the US where I had to present this and I and I had to add this to show you exactly People they're Americans the Netherlands is over there and we have like 17 million people in there in the Netherlands We're one of the top three banks Yeah, a full-service bank. So we do so we do everything a Bank can do So with that said Robbock is over a hundred years old I think yesterday Abby told on the stage that she left her bank and went to an online bank because everything was an online thing Well, of course as a bank, that's also what we want to do Even though we're a hundred years old We are working on lots of digital stuff to make it more and more digital and here are some examples of what we did I don't think it's good. Yeah, it went automatic. So in 1996 We were actually the first Dutch bank to have an internet banking website followed by a mobile banking website on WAP You know that with his old old the old phones I'm not gonna go through all of this But you see here that we've been always been active in the digital space and just last month We opened up our developer portal for developers to build their own apps on top of our APIs If you go there today or to developer dot rabok dot and L You won't see a lot of APIs yet, but the beginning is there, right? So we're starting to do that and also last month or the month before we were launching partner of Google with their As Dutch version of the assistant in the Netherlands. So you see that we are as any other bank will do as any old bank We're trying to be fully digital and Doing that more and more The focus of today is the Dutch part of Rabenbank. That's where I work So I'm responsible for the architecture of our online sites. That's the public website It's also the internet banking website and also our apps and they all run on the same platform server side Which I'm gonna explain a bit and then tell you how and why we migrated away Our platform was built around ten years ago And it was like the traditional Application stack you could see it basically any bank at least in the Netherlands. It's Java based web sphere based and We built our own Stuff on top of that what we did do differently than already then was that we went for things called portlets Anybody still remember portlets? I can also guess that you don't even want to point to hold up your hand if you do What we did we build our own Framework so we didn't buy anything we build it ourselves It was our portal framework and and what it did is all incoming requests go through that framework and they pass on the Request to any apps on the same server so this allowed us for example to have multiple portlets multiple apps on the same page for the User all-server side rendered so this is all the the traditional server side rendering of stuff And actually this worked pretty well We we set it up in a way that we could scale it out easily Almost linearly so if the if the load goes up we just add a couple of boxes and it will it will work fine I have some words on that as well We we have groups of deployment units where we group our apps together on a single box And when I say apps I really mean small things so they used to be portlets now with our more tradition or more modern development we do single-page apps where we have from rich front end and we just call services that expose Jason data basically these apps are things like making a payment or Getting a loan or Getting your list of transactions. Those are all separate apps already So we already did this 10 years ago You could even say that we were already doing microservices then the only real big difference is that they all ran on the same box So and of course with microservices you stick your Microsoft's each Microsoft's in its own process Which is something we couldn't do then the technology wasn't wasn't available so in our own framework We build a lot of additional stuff mostly about non-functional requirements So we do a lot of security checks in there We do a lot of monitoring a throttling in there that we that we can leverage the system as best as possible And that's that's worked out pretty well actually, so we've been doing this for 10 years Today there are still over 400 applications on that platform Running most of your if you go to our public website You hit this you hit this system if you go to our app if you go to our internet banking websites You all hit these systems So over 400 apps it's does easily does over 2,000 transactions per second We have a 2 million log-ons every day and in those 10 years hardly any disturbances So it's actually been a pretty good platform for us still we decided a while back That it was time to move on and there were three reasons for doing that The first reason is that our technology was getting old right? It was web sphere Java AE although we don't do portlets anymore and its Web services more adjacent services It's still the web sphere box that we run on if you go to conferences these days you hear about The spring boot apps or the node apps or anything other than basically Traditional app server stuff and we simply couldn't do that our our stack doesn't support that Another reason to move on is that actually with 400 apps on our platform. It was getting bit full We we reached the limits of our scalability. We couldn't add many more apps We cannot add boxes, but then our load balancing is really tricky So it started to yeah, it started to creak a bit It started to get get difficult to manage so it was time to to look forward and the third reason also very important Actually, maybe the even the most important is that we have been doing agile development within the rubberbank for I think over 10 years now And a couple of years ago. We've been switching that to DevOps So where you move where the operations part of the teams really becomes part of the agile team And that means basically if you say to your teams that when you build it you also run it You cannot do that with a consolidated environment You cannot say to a team you own that stuff and by the way somebody else can also break it that simply doesn't work So you need to go to a system where you can really break it out and give each team its own responsibility So you need to go the full microservices route basically so that's what we did we started on the journey and It's being depicted here and a couple of things. I'd like to say about that So one of the things you see here is that we started this late? 2015 that's over two and a half years ago or even three. What is it that long time ago? So it's that that's a frustrating thing like so we are now we now have something in place We're very happy that we're there, but it took us a long time last year I was also here and I was as a Spectator as an attendee like like many of you and then we said either I'm back here again this year and talk about How we did this or we're not coming back at all. So the reason that I'm here is is okay, right? So that we succeeded some other things to note is late 2015 when we do that when we did our research Kubernetes didn't exist yet. So you might wonder why is cuban it is not on the slides Well back then it wasn't there. So there was Docker You could do maysos maraton and we actually build our own platform using that open source technologies But no cuban it is yet After we build our own platform. We fairly soon decided that this was not the thing for us to do We saw that running a platform actually this is still running today in another department The it's it's nice if you have a couple of developers and if a couple of teams and a couple of apps Then it's nice, but it to scale it out to the rubberbunk to have over a hundred or maybe 300 teams working on it That's that's something we would not be able to do with this except if we put a lot of people on it So we would be having to build a platform with maybe 60 70 people and that's simply not worth it, right? We're a bank. We're not about building platforms We're not about containers if you want to do that you go to Rotterdam where they have shipping We're a bank. So we want to we want to offer banking services to our customers So in there in somewhere beginning of 2016 we came to the conclusion Actually for us it's much better to go out into the market and see what's there and just get a platform as a service in Well, we pretty soon we we ran into cloud foundry We really like that also with the fact that there are multiple implementations of there just today Yesterday we heard there are eight certified Vendors now so that that's great that that gives you choice and it gives you exit strategies and so that that's nice And then we did a POC It's also nice to mention we did the POC with two two parties So we selected pivotal as one of the parties because they're basically as we see it The biggest driver behind a lot of cloud foundry stuff. Also, they own the whole spring stack Which we've been doing for a long time already spring related work and we also did with IBM with blue mix For the simple reason that IBM is our strategic partner. So we cannot not do it with them, right? So it's Easy one so we did it we did a POC with both of them And what we did differently is that what you normally see is that what you normally see is that? Pivotal or IBM or some other vendor they come in they bring their consultants They do their coding and they show you how great their platform is but we said well, it's it's going to be our platform It's going to be a developer platform. So developer experience is a very important thing So we're going to give you a couple of days to teach our developers how to run this platform How to how to build your apps and then we're going to do the POC ourselves So you can give us architectural advice if you see one of our big advice We're sitting in the back of the room I never so that helped a lot But actually in the end our own teams did the building and did the did the tryouts and did the selection Well, then you see a big gap after we selected it. It took us over a year To actually select it and implement it and basically buy it and all that stuff And why that is is on a sub note on this slide We selected pistol cloud foundry as for the bank and where when we started we said we were going to use this as a Replacement of our online platform architecture basically where we are now is that we say this is the platform for the whole of the bank So any any team within the bank even if you're not doing any online stuff if you if you built your apps Stick them on PCF and the reason it took a year is the side note is that we put it on the cloud We also have our own data centers But for this we see as a strategic goal to move more and more into public cloud And that's easier said than done especially if you're a bank and you have the Dutch Government and European guidelines and and all that stuff. So that that took us a long while Why did we pick PCF for one of the reasons you've seen this sort of these slides many times already a car last couple of days Actually, I claim them. I think I made them internally in 2014 or so or 2015 and after that everybody was showing the four abstractions Well, I'm kidding. Of course. They're not mine Basically, this is what you can do and what what I've seen in the past or in the last few years in the market is that we As as as techies we come from the right and we move up to the left and we think that's really cool So we've been doing VMs for a while We've done ansible scripting and puppet and chef and all that stuff and then we load containers And then we plugged cubanitas in and it was all awesome and everybody's happy Actually, when you look at it from an architectural perspective You should look at it the other way around as from an architectural perspective when you go to your teams You want to build your features your services at the highest abstraction level possible So what we actually say is when you want to build something you should first see if you could do it with functions serverless and then probably you find out that nine times out of ten or ninety nine times out of a hundred It's not possible yet. It might be at some point So then you drop one notch and then you should go to apps So where you see that the market is going from the right to the left We try to go from the left to the right And so we did a basically a survey amongst all of our teams along the 300 DevOps teams that are working in the Rabobank And what we what we found that is there is that 84 point nine six two percent of the teams And I hope you understand this is a bogus number that they Operate on that level when when we look at the DevOps teams within Rabobank Their goal is to build apps to build features not to manage Kubernetes clusters or to do other stuff with containers That's what they should be doing Building software is already very very hard thinking of all the non-functional requirements and security requirements Especially when you're online think about your performance requirements and there then there's this thing like that How they call it business requirements. You also have to implement those so it's already very very complicated So make it as easy as possible for the developer. That's that's basically what we found out So that's why we decided to go for apps Of course all the other three are also necessary So we can't do it with PCF alone You also need all the other stuff, but the majority of the teams are more than happy with with just doing PCF Just pushing apps So what we promise our teams today is a very simple model. Well, I probably don't need to explain it Otherwise if I would you shouldn't be here. I guess it's pushing apps and it's scaling them and the whole platform takes care of sticking them In containers running them exposing them. You don't you don't see load balance anymore You don't see VMs. You don't see all the hard stuff that the teams used to do It's a very simple API and you push your apps. So that's great. So we selected this We promised this But now what so we have this platform I showed you earlier which is with Linux and the WebSphere boxes and and our own frameworks and lots of apps in there Now watch so we have PCF as the platform to go to we still need to think about how do we do that? So what we did is we went into a nice technical track where we looked at first at all the features that our portal framework had and We broke them up in into separate pieces in separate microservices or we said well this feature We don't need anymore. We can just throw it away. For example the throttling and monitoring in there That's something we won't need if the platform provides us for us. So we don't need to rebuild that so what we basically did is went into a nice track, which I try to depict here is Is that we came up with things like the URL security? microservices where you can have all kinds of security add-ons for for making save URLs We have a temporary service where you can store your user preferences it ideally apps do that themselves Of course and and have their own database, but we need to offer a migration path away from the old platform So we need to mimic a lot of the APIs that are there except where well before they all ran into the same JVM They ran in the same JVM. We now have to support them as separate microservices. So we started breaking out these services We've been putting a lot of effort into building these dark blue blocks to allow other teams to move their apps on on top of On top of the online platform. So this is the new version of it and it all runs on PCF What we see is that the technology is great What we see is that the developers in and rubber bank they go to conferences and they learn stuff that they That they hear about spring boot or other libraries or maybe node or some other stuff They come into the office and they can actually apply that Before it was web sphere and then you learned about something like spring boot, but you it's nice to learn But you can't really use it now now. We're actually on par again with what's happening in the market. So that's great Developers really like that they learned what they learned today. They can apply today. That's really great It's also very complex We knew this upfront building a distributed network of distributed system is one of the most complex things you can do So you need to be really aware of all the stuff all the timeouts all the circuit breakers all the fallbacks and all All those kinds of scenarios you really need to think them through So I cannot I cannot say enough about this book. You probably know it probably heard about it it's the release it book from Michael Nygaard and It's just I have no no affiliation with the guy whatsoever It's gonna say if you want if you're doing microservices Go read this book is written from an ops perspective and all the stuff that can go wrong if you if you build microservices and how to how to how to solve that The same so so this is this is good. This is nice. Our teams are happy And they've been through a big learning curve to get all get get here, but it's also just to have the story Everybody loves technology part, but actually the the most Difficult thing within the rubber bank is the people As many enterprise organizations we are organized in in structure like this So this suggests a hierarchy. We have domains. We have departments and we have teams in there And what you can expect is in a such a big organization. It come ways law applies, right? So you see that the way of working is different the technology stacks are different the the maturity of the teams is different So for example, we've been saying that we've been doing DevOps for five years There are teams who really embrace that and do that there are also teams who actually do it in name only and We don't have ops in the team at all or work on a consolidated platform still and stuff Everybody is going in their own Going through their own speed in getting really to towards DevOps with all the problems they have in their departments and their teams So that's that's difficult Myself, I'm somewhere at the right or on the left for you Within the online department and what of course you see there is that the teams within online Well, we said first we're going to replace our online platform So all the teams are going to get training all the teams are going through that all the teams are actively working on Microservice these days and doing spring boot. Maybe not all of the teams with a lot of them So there's that that's easy and also in the in the departments relatively close to me So within the same domain, it's also easy to find those teams If not for the same simple reason that they are physically really close by one floor up one floor down If you go further away, then also physically you go further away So it's much harder to get get teams on board it So what's happening is that we see that some teams within the bank within across the various domains They do pick it up. They they learn about this They want to do this and they are very active and then around them some other teams also pick it up But we don't see the explosion yet that the whole of the bank is suddenly using using PCF So that's that's the that's the biggest challenge. We actually have it's not the technology It's how to get the whole organization on on the platform where it applies, of course It won't make sense everywhere, but in a lot of places it does. So what do we do? We have a lot of Training we provide a lot of documentation. So the teams that started out first They really put a lot of effort in writing down everything they did all the decisions they made all the reasons they made the decisions so we were very opinionated on that we were basically saying do this don't do that and And and why and that that just helps already So we have an internal wiki where everything that we do all the things that we do are Described that we provide workshops for other teams Actually, the one of the teams has an every Thursday an open day where teams from all over the bank Could just come in and ask questions on how do you do PCF? How do you do clouds? What are the issues there? We provide demos we we give events So we we have external internal speakers in where we try to tell all the the developer community within Rabelbank All the things that we do and we have pivotal do dojos with us So for the teams that are really need to learn the real agile and the whole labs way of working We have pivotal to help us do dojos But apparently this is still not enough so this is roughly where we are today and we are and we do all those things and Still the adoption rate within the rest of the bank is is is hard, right? It's also actually what I find the most enjoying so it took two years to put PCF in place But at the same time when you see all the teams then actually starting to use it. That's really gratifying. That's really it's really nice to see So where we are today I Recently learned that I was lying on this slide, but I just keep on lying anyway, so it's okay we have Over a hundred teams already on the platform and we went live in January 1st And so that was when the real production ready foundations were there in Azure on public cloud Then we started building our building our apps in there We have over about a hundred different applications in production today And when you combine it with all the instances and DevTest and prod then we go towards 900 plus And that's a lie. It's a bit it's a bit lower actually so that's that's where the lie is So it's actually growing nice nicely. We see this linear growth actually not this month That's why I left out September if I would have added in there. It would be mostly flat I blame that on the vacation all the days. I don't know. So we really need to we need to step it up again And of course I should say that we're hiring right that's obvious A lot of Dutch people in here So if you want to really really do nice stuff, even if it even though it's a bank, right? It's boring financial stuff We are looking for developers and the ops teams members Thing to add there is that our ops team, which is also a thing that that really makes me Makes us really proud is that we run our The whole of the platform so we have four foundations two in production and two for Dev DevTest actually we have five if a crash and burn environment that it's all being managed by three people and Those three people do other stuff besides so that that's kind of awesome that we can simply grow the number of teams And we can grow the number of instances and it doesn't affect the size of the team that needs to manage the platform for the teams So that's that's really that's really good That's actually it already so I'm going fast Questions then maybe that's better. Yes a question Yeah, so the question is how do we move software from Dev to production now with this or Well, of course, most of the teams already so we were doing agile before some so we have a lot of Jenkins pipelines already in place All of the things we already put into production on our old website environment was fully automated all the old ways with build pipelines So basically actually moving that over to pipelines that did see a push instead of all kinds of complex web sphere deployments Is that that was basically it so we didn't affect we didn't change the way teams need to work They still have their own choice of build pipelines to use their own software their own scripting. We do provide a generalized Build pipeline for them, which does a lot of other stuff as well for them But they it's their choice to adopt it or not They can also write it their cell themselves, but basically it's it's not a big step for us because we were already doing it Does that help? Kind of so I take it. They've just they're using save push from their pipeline straight into production Yeah, okay. Yeah, but of course we have for example We have SM 9 in there for our change management and we have in our on our build pipelines We have built in that we first create a ticket and that somebody else first needs to prove it Otherwise the whole build pipeline won't follow along stuff like that So we really try to automate the change process as it exists today Fully automated as much as possible. Thank you. Sure. Yeah Now that you've built so much capability with Cloud Foundry yourselves. What's your thoughts around? PCF versus open source That's a good question We should down the camera now now yesterday We had a we I was it as a nice presentation about moving towards the open source from the commercial And I think it was a nice inspirational session But for us we are very still at the start of our journey using PCF We were we will never be able to just pick it up pick all the open source components build it ourselves and start working It it's way too complex CF is a complex environment So for now it's really good for us that we have a commercial offering If we can just install and get all the build packs and then the upgrades from and maybe in a few years I don't know, but I think for now we're on the right track. Yeah, so I think I would I would it's of course That was in the session yesterday. It's about the appetite the risk appetite of the company I think our risk appetite is not such that we would start with the open source stack I think it's it wouldn't work for us But well, that's that's my feeling Other questions I have five minutes left so we can do all kinds of stuff sing songs Not me, but I did promise it didn't I I won't I won't so no more questions then. Yeah, sure. There's a mic coming. So you have all the time in the world. So Yes Hello, I Was I was gonna ask if you have some examples of some of the apps that are running on the platform today You mentioned that your your group which started it was kind of in the online side. Yeah, just any examples to share there Yeah, I'm not sure I'm actually not sure whether I can not know that I'm not allowed to share them Just that I simply don't know them so in my role. We have all the teams working on stuff They're going through their own faces, and I actually don't know what they're working on on the daily basis Sounds scary, right? But yeah, I just fake as if I do all the time No, but parts of our app are already already online I think it's a part of the payment request feature that we have it's like in the Netherlands You have tiki tiki dot guys know that way instead of making a payment to somebody else you can be sent a Link to make that payment. So instead of me paying you you would send me a link where I can easily pay you It's like a pre-filled Payment which were highly successful in the Netherlands And we have all we've also been offering our own version of that of that and that already runs on on PCF For example, so just parts and fragments of our mobile app and our website Slowly start moving over and I really don't know where we are exactly what I do know Sorry is I mentioned that we have over 400 applications on our old platform and the number of applications that has actually migrated is zero So we have over a hundred applications running But nothing has been really migrated yet because teams really pick it up to do the news features Of course, that's what the business wants right all the new features and then we think that's a that's okay We we also put an end-of-life date on the old platform And that way we tried to first do the fancy stuff the new features in the new way And then when you work on that and you also need to maintain that stuff on that old boring dusty platform You you take you take the effort and also move it over that that's a bit of a strategy. We hope to We hope will work, but we're not sure yet. Let's see Yes, what one question Was it difficult to fulfill the PCI standards in this environment? Yes, so I told you about the year That's all about that. So that's all about and then that's not especially I think PCF if you would have done PCF or another cloud found the instance in our own on-premise data centers It would have it wouldn't have been that hard but the fact that we run it on public cloud makes it really really difficult and Don't don't ask me about all the details. I've been involved in many especially security risk kind of discussions That I was but I don't know all the all the technical details on that But it took us a year to really get it in place. Yeah Yes, sure, maybe One question also Have you evaluated the effort to to migrate the 400 application from your website? Sorry, just in platform. Maybe you can Mike. Oh, yeah, sorry Yeah, have you ever evaluated the effort to migrate the 400 application you you have on the website platform to the CF environment What's the question is that do I think that's feasible evaluate the efforts to my effort? Yeah Yeah, no, we didn't no, and I don't think we need to so Actually the same question yesterday Somebody asked me that too. So of course we have a rough estimation and we have a rough feeling And we know that basically all of our Java apps on the old online platform. They are spring-based So depending on the complexity, it's either very simple to put that in a spring boot app or not So for example, if you use MQ, it's gonna be a bit more difficult than if you do HTTP based service goals But we didn't do that a really thorough Estimation basically what we said we need to move anyway our platform is growing old we need to replace it and we put that end of life date on our old platform with to push everybody into the new platform But if needed we can move the of course we can move the date We can simply say we'll keep it in place for another year But that's that will bring a lot of cost with it So we're basically looking at that model and not so much and on the individual effort needed Again, we think that if teams start building their features from scratch using spring boot and putting them on on the platform Then at some point picking up your old features Taking the effort to move it over to new platform is better than always switching off that oh, no I don't do the CF push anymore. I don't do spring boot anymore Now I do all that web sphere stuff that I really don't remember how it all works So actually I think that the the mental effort Is going to help us? Force the force the migration Yeah Okay, I think that's time. I think we're over time just one one more than short one Sorry, you said you're managing the whole all of your cloud foundries with a team of three people I was wondering what what's the task of these three people? What was the well automate a lot of it one of the people is actually sitting in the back very relaxed So that's also a good sign right just three people and they still have time to do nothing I'm kidding. I'm kidding So that it's mostly about it's a lot about Automating lots, so they have a lot of concourse pipelines where they reply patches. It's about Offering means to create new orgs and spaces quickly and stuff like that But it doesn't include the 24-7 operation of the platform. Yeah, but of course Since the platform is that is that highly stable. It's not a lot of work Okay, well, thank you


Hey, this is Brett and this 2019 Ford F-250 Supercab Longbox is stock number 13444Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, year new and used heavy-duty truck headquarters. This 2019 Ford F-250 has the 6.2-liter V8 gas engine. It puts out 385 horsepower and it's paired up with the six-speed automatic transmission. This truck has been fully-safetyed and inspected by our service shop per the state of Wisconsin inspection process, has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around in this video, inside, underneath, start it up, take a look under the hood, and give you the most accurate representation of the vehicle as possible. Stone gray metallic is the color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or television, I recommend turning them on now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition options, and of course, cleanliness of the vehicle before seeing it in person. As you go down this side of the truck, take note of how clean that box is, how clean the doors and cab are. I didn't see any dents, I didn't see any dings on there, looks really good. Front fender is in nice shape as well. You can see just how nice and glossy that paint is as well. If you like the video, you can subscribe to the YouTube channel, which is youtube.com slash summit auto. Click the bell notifications and you'll get updates on the videos I do each and every day at our dealership. Comes with the painted alloy rims. These are Goodyear Wrangler all-terrain adventure tires. These are LT27570R18s, and they have right around half the tread left on them, framing underbodies in pretty nice condition. Once again, that front fender is in great shape, didn't see any dents or dings. Headlight lenses are nice and clear, and you do get the factory fog lights on this truck. Front bumper is in great shape, does have the tow hooks, I didn't see any dents or dings, and lower valance looks really good too. Chrome trimmed grille, the hood is in nice shape, didn't see any dents or dings on there, looks really nice. Passengers side front fender is in excellent condition as well, and the passenger side front rim, no major scuffs or scrapes on there. So stone gray metallic, used to be dark stone, I think it might still be, it's got a lot of metal flake in it, paint codes D1, and they used to use those on the 06F150s, that's where I first saw the color and the explorers. As you go down this side of this 2019 Ford F-250, take note of how clean that body is, and once again how reflective and mirror like that paint is. I take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down, but you're still interested in purchasing the truck, you can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. If this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesmen know that you saw the video that was helpful and that Brett sent you. Back rim, very nice, back tires have just as much tried as the front tires, maybe even a little bit more, and the frame and underbody is in excellent condition. It has all the remainder of the factory exhaust, looks really good all the way underneath, has a side box step, and lower rockers all look good, comes with the nice factory chrome step bars, and once again down this side of the box looks really good. I like how they use the kind of copper 4x4 letters to match the color of the truck. Coming around to the back rear bumper is in nice shape, no dents or dings in there, it does have the backup parking sensors full towing package, which includes the receiver hitch 4 pin and 7 pin wiring. The tailgate is in very nice condition as well, comes with a very nice spray and bed liner, side box tie downs, and the bed is exceptionally clean on this truck. That bed liner goes onto the tailgate and it does have the tailgate step assist that shuts nicely. And coming around to the driver's side once again, back rim excellent shape, and the rest of the truck is really really nice. I didn't see any dents or dings anywhere on this truck. Comes with the driver's side door code entry, we do have the code for this truck if you ever wanted to figure out what your code is for your 17 to 22 super duty. In the upper right hand part of the screen I've got a video showing you how to do that. Here's the heated mirrors, built in directional signals, these are the power scope mirrors so they power fold in, they power telescope out, and I'll show you that as well. Inside the XLT package gives you the gray cloth interior. There are no rips or tears on the seats, you get the 40-20-40 split bench seating in the front. Driver's seat is in excellent condition, no rips or tears on there. Over driver's seat with lumbar, weather tech floor mats, power pedals, auto headlamps, tilt telescopic steering wheel, power windows, locks, and mirrors. Like I said, these mirrors do power fold in. I always like showing both sides so that you know that both sides are working properly. They power telescope out, and in, and both sides out, and in. Back doors open up all the way, and then they, you know, they fold all the way around so that you can get into the back or load the back easily. Latch child safety system, no rips or tears on the seats back here. They look really good, these seats do fold up. Forex for storage, you get the carpeting and the floor mats back here. Side curtain airbags. These back windows are power as well, so they power roll down, and the doors swing closed like that. As long as I'm standing here, here's the tire and loading information, and both sides, and then your vinsticker. Hop inside, check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. Well that's why this thing's so nice, it only has 17,916 miles on it. Instrument cluster is very nice and clean. Comes with the multifunction steering wheel, cruise controls and information center controls on the left. Steering wheel is in nice shape, Bluetooth and volume controls on the right. Six speed automatic transmission with the optional tap shift. This one has the sync eight inch radio. You get AM, FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities as well as Bluetooth capabilities. You have your different apps and everything here, including Android Auto and Apple CarPlay where you can project your cell phone to the screen. Since this one doesn't have the nav, you can project your cell phone with Waze or Google Maps to the screen, then it's like you have nav right on the screen. This is also where your backup camera shows up, and you can see that it's working nicely.  Two USBs, a 12 volt power point, and then you get another 12 volt power point, 110 volt, 400 watt max plug-in. Dual glove boxes, passenger side format and seat are in excellent condition, no rips or tears on there, and the headliner is in very nice condition. You do get six auxiliary up-fit switches right there and map lights. We'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Starts right up, no check engine lights or anything like that, other than my hood's a jar. Door's a jar. See if I can get that LED light to go on them and here's the LED light. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video, you've been able to verify just how clean and nice this truck is all the way around inside and out. Under the hood, once again, the 6.2 liter V8 gas engine. Engine bay is very clean, runs very smooth. Once again, this truck has been, sorry about that, once again this truck has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change on fluid tab and checked and tapped off and this truck is 100% ready to go. Shocks are doing a nice job, the light's working, there is the emissions sticker and I would highly recommend this truck from a quality and condition standpoint and to see more pictures of this truck or one of our other 550 new and used cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, wranglers, half tons, three-quarter tons, one tons, you name it, we gotta go to that website right there, summitauto.com, full pictures and descriptions of every single vehicle from two locations, all at summitauto.com and if you'd like to check out more HD videos, you can go to youtube.com slash summitauto.
