Yes, okay, please start Okay Thank you very much for having me here to talk to you today on Channeling chakras. Um, which is The next step in in in government subversion techniques Uh, this is something that that is very close to my heart and something that I've been researching for for for many many minutes. Um, and I'm Not quite sure what a chakra is but it's it's quite important for you to get right Can I have the next slide, please? If the chakra you're fetish, it's okay to admit it. We love you. It's fine Okay, so, um, yeah, uh Next slide, please No, no, no, you don't get to fail Oh, no Then crash you go Explain it or get on it Oh, okay. Uh, so, uh, yeah, so, uh Yeah, hackers and cats are very important because they work together to to bring the right kind of energy To to do exactly what it is that hackers do Which is on the next slide, please This is what hackers do got it That's very socially distant of you Just remember that consent is everything. Um, especially when you are dealing with a tiger, I guess. Um Yeah, uh So the important thing about approaching a tiger is that you have to go from the right side Which is the outside of the cage. Um, and so you need to ensure that You are not anywhere close to it. Um This is a lot to do with chakras. Um in in in some way that I'm not going to be able to to explain to you. Um So, uh, yeah, just let's talk about hackers Um How they should be looking at probably the next slide, please Which Now let's talk about Um, yeah, so I'm gonna need you to touch me. Go ahead and finish off this slide. You can't skip yet I think that I well, I mean if if now I've got consent, well, that's that's a different story altogether Can't touch this He was asking Um All right, yeah, okay, so so this is this is something that that yeah, I've done a lot of work in Um, so obviously what we're looking at here is is is PCI. Um, and It's all to do with credit card information um So obviously what you're going to want to do is when you access the credit card in the first place You travel through the level one chakra Which is regency Regency is when you actually get the credit card out of your wallet and place it in front of the computer And the next word is The sound of you typing in your credit card information. So it's just all clicks and stuff like that You then move to level four, which is actually trying to put all the information in And then of course, yeah cathartic is is when the information gets accessed. Um, it's it's a beautiful thing and and the way it works is it goes through these different levels of of enlightenment from I want that thing. I'm going to buy that thing. I bought that thing. Um, and it's all protected perfectly by having uh, laxadaisical phantasmic security which is a kind of of um It's a kind of encryption scheme that was come up at black cat last year. Um, which which Um And it's basically just sends your well, essentially the word is yeet it actually yeets your credit card into the ether Where nobody can actually touch it and It comes back in a totally different way and if someone buys a couple of things off your credit card, it's not a problem too much Alan what is it palpabrate? What was he palpabrate?  Um, it's it's a beautiful thing to watch because it's all in flames Um, like like you have an example of this An example of what yeet Of your meat. Yeah. Yeah, so it Pretty much what's going on on the left hand side of my screen now Could could could you do like an interpretive dance of yeet now? I've got to go get it I Is that the angry looking cat because that cat's awesome Okay, uh, by the way, switch everyone By the way, I I see that you have solicited for questions from the audience. So I'm gonna ask all 390 viewers in the twitch If they have any questions for the presenter You hate me I'm terrible Okay, we have a question why First question, do you have them? Oh Jesus What are the security implications of yeeting a credit card into another I'm well, I'm happy you asked that Are you I'm happy you asked that question. So it's three three point eight point two if I remember correctly um Yep, next. So what's it? What's the privilege escalation from level one to level nine? Oh, you don't even want to go there. Um So level level level one is is a basic level. Um, and level nine is Uh, it is superman Um, so they're totally separate dens. I need you to spill. Yeah telnet and yeet for me Tell me You need to spill telnet in the language of yeet. Wait, wait, wait Final question.  So hacks for pancakes Through the courtesy counter, please Here in trouble. All right Alan danger. Alan did a thing. Uh, I don't fucking know what he did but Still better than our job, uh spam All right, uh, I I'm gonna give it seven chakras Um, we didn't really talk that much about chakras, but uh, that seems like an appropriate amount of chakras Uh, I will take that Yes, you will so He didn't get the the level nine uh privilege escalation but for mentioning consent twice and bringing a pc i Well, we're all not drunk enough to deal with it. I give him a Thank you Uh a jedi day Okay, you avoided swimming completely which that kind of pissed me off now You did address the correct way to uh to uh approach tigers You know and not touching and pc i no touching Yeeting you kind of It seemed a little weak weak on yeeting. You had good question and answers. So i'm gonna give you a 7.8 10.8.  So i'll give you two quasi's and a yeet All right fair enough very good. Yeah Yeah Starting off rough is is yeah, it's a good way to start Five Just five that's it that's five wait that was five that looked like a diagram for an anal plug Keep it together he says I Someone tells me I started off rough and someone's giving me a anal plug. Okay.   I can feel it. Uh, miss amanda. I'd heat it berlin Ten dollars a month No, I'm not heat loss That's a second tear man.   Uh, tell them You get 26 Um, I'm gonna go I think I skipped over pyro last time so pyro you get to vote twice Is pyro still there? Pyro's gone He's smarter than the rest of us Uh c7 as one of pyro's life partners, what would he have given? Four. All right, very good. Four. I didn't four. Yeah And um I'm just going to address uh, our job and steve as one and as one being so What do uh, you guys give him? All right, so we took We talked why you why you were giving your presentation and first of all, I have to tell you You did a good job considering the fact that we just completely screwed up your entire flow but Because you didn't fully address the chakra situation, we're only going to be able to give you two yeets and a yote Uh, I'm giving him two furbies Yeah, you got a furby in there, but two yeets in a yote Negative two furbies negative two furbies they get to fibi. Oh, that's okay.   Jesus. Nice. Wow. Alright, I'll finish it off. That's a little too German, Ray. For the reference to Black Hat last year, we go two and a half crowned sterlings. Nice. Oh, Jesus. And none of us ever thought he would do this.  Thank you. I just kept hanging around. Yeet. Yeet. Alright, two down and it's only been 55 minutes. We're still going fast.  We can always go for a speed round. Is this a busy city? This is a speed round. What? How many can look at a quickie? How many can look at a quickie? 24, 24. 24. Oh my God. 24. I think we should come and pick our judges. What's happening in the morning? 24 or two hours, whatever comes first. Can we complete this one in under five minutes? Alright, all done. Talk amongst yourselves while I figure this out. I think we should let Leslie pick five judges to save some time. Okay, I can do that. Only judges with only fans. I want only judges with only fans. Only fans. What if mine's not? I'm going to create one right now. That means Aaron and I get to do it like two and a half times a piece. I've got it in my free cans, does that count? I also have a night flirt. I've done my makeup once or twice. Alright, alright. I think we've got five there. I mean, does night flirt count? Because I have only fans night flirt and then, well, a different account. I just keep my snap. We get two votes, apparently. I'm just on Grindr. What are you guys on Grindr? I'm on Grindr. I just keep it open, man. Yeah, I'm on Grindr. Alright, now I am ready. Oh, good. Okay, everybody, welcome to the proverbial stage. None other than Miss Leslie Carhart. Hacks for pancakes. Hello, everybody. I'm Patrick Pancakes. I have here to talk to you about birds. And killings. But mostly birds. Next slide, please. Yeah, I'll get right on that. Hold on. There you go. Or who knows? So when we talk about killing and birds. The really big problem is it all started with never going to give you up. One, that song made the top 10 in the United States. There was a phenomenon. A phenomenon, a phenomenon. And the birds went wild. And you should be concerned. And you. And you. And everyone on Onlyfans. Because those birds started making changes to system B. And it was early days yet. But the seeds were planted by the birds. For the killings. Next slide, please. Now, I know that this is a big stretch for a lot of you who really love system B. And I understand it's a beloved part of our infrastructure. You know, we throw birthday parties. We stop our car to recognize the wonders that it's brought us in our development and administration lives. But what you really have to understand is what the birds did. You see, when system B was developed, it was actually de-systemed. And its policy was to enter. It was the anti-cracker policy. That would have kept us secure. Of course, it'll be out of the job. But you know, like, it's all right. The birds gave us a job. But also, they made us insecure. Because they gave us the wrong system D. Instead of de-systemed. Whoa. Next slide, please. Now, I need you to understand.  Those birds, they need killing. And one day, one day, when you're trusting system D to do what it's supposed to do, what's actually going to happen, is it's going to be birds. You're going to start checking your running classes. And you're going to see birds. And that's when you know it's all over. Those birds need one thing. They need one thing. And Pete is on their side. It's killing. They want to kill.  Next slide, please. Now, we have recourse for this. Don't have to worry. Because with the Wiccan contingent, we have the power to change system B back to de-system, the way it was meant to be from the very beginning. And thereby, it's feeding the birds. And they're nefarious agenda to cause Linux to be insecure. Now, I understand this seems like a lot. You take it one step at a time.  You start looking up at that skyline. And at those birds watching you. You're seeing that they're watching back. Because they're waiting. They're waiting for the day to make system B not be the perfect tool in Linux administration that it is today. Next slide, please. All right, my darling. Now, I want this to be very, very stressful. So we have to remember work-life balance. So as you are dealing with heavy load, I put on you today about the true nature of system B and the bird conspiracy. I highly recommend that you remember the staples of life. First of all, have your daily allowance of bacon. Dating bacon is fine. It's fine. It's okay. But make sure that you have your daily allowance of beer. That, my dear, is good work-life balance. Now, the right amount of beer? Well, you know, I can't really tell you, but I would go with the right amount of beer to drown a bird. Now, your average bird can be drowned in about 2.3 gallons of beer. But you won't have some extra drinks, so I would go with three gallons of beer and take the part out without the bird first. And remember your daily washes? The Cthulhu? May he and his squiggly goodness keep us safe from the pair of the birds?  You start flipping. That's when they get in. Next slide. And always remember the only place the bird can't touch is the only pan. So make sure.  Because the birds are still here.  Now, control what you can and confront what you can't. You can control System D today, but you won't be able to control it in the future. If the bird gets you, you remember what to do. You take the bird first. Kill the bird just like that. Now, you have to take the time right now. Take a deep breath. Do? Get ready, kill those birds because they are the reason that Linux is insecure today. And it was never meant to be that way. Next slide. Oh, you're done. Any questions from the audience about the bird? Oh, yeah. Any questions from the audience? The bird is suddenly at the top of your hit list and what they've done to anger you so much. You know, I was keeping it private until now and they thought it was the squirrels. You know, everybody's been telling me that the squirrels are the problem in cyber. But really, they're a new threat. You want to know it's a real APT. You've got to go back. You've got to go back farther before the squirrels.   I have a follow-up question coming up here. I have a follow-up question for you. What are your thoughts on furbies? You know, furbies are dangerously close to birds. I'm not saying they're part of the bird system in Europe, but I think they might have something in there and if it requires further analysis, probably some detailed reverse engineering at a firmware level. Next question. One final question from Rogue Clown. How is bird baby formed? Let's go. Oh, dear. You really don't want to know about that, but if you want to get into the gory detail, know that each face is when you sleep. This is why I'm telling you to be prepared.  All right. Very good. Leslie Hacks for Pancakes. Thank you very much. Well done. You're welcome. What are those birds? Birds are not real. Birds are definitely not real. All right. So Leslie stipulated that only judges with only fans accounts can judge her. So I guess I'm going to start with. They have to be active. They have to be active because I. Why are you talking to yourself about this? Yeah. I mean, I found you have to fill out a W nine and that's just too much paperwork. Damn. That's what's up. Give her the goddamn score, please. I'd have it. I'd have an only fans, but I don't want to make a W nine. That's great. Exactly. I'm giving you one shittily drawn penguin. Nice. Get it. And system D. And then I'm going to go. But I can't go. I am going to, I'm going to go to somebody who I wish had an only fans law killer. I do have no fans. You just know about it. So the whole entire talk gave a complete fallacy that birds are real.   So with that, I want to give a two. System D.  Let us go with evil Mog. I'm going to give you it.  Only because you missed the golden opportunity to go. You beat on home D resolve D. And all the other shitty parts of system D.  Jesus. Damn. Here's the thing pancakes just because you didn't follow us. I was going to reward you one Alfred Hitchcock, which would have won you the game. I was going to order some. Five dinosaurs. So we'll save that for the next contestant. If they're worthy of your dinosaurs. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. I don't know if it should. No, I don't. I don't know. No. And? No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. It's okay. Yeah. No. No. No. No. So. I am coming and I am going to go for it. I'm a mid disease silicon. 8 days anime master just joined my new challenger Yeah, we got you the anime girl, I'm guessing Welcome to yeah That's that's what we're talking about we are about Now No, no it has to screen all the time has to be on screen all the time On screen yeah, and I'll give you there.  I will be sharing my screen in one second Anime master. You have to hug that pillow the entire time. Yes It's negative 50 furbies there we go. That's Eric I hate that I just noticed that there's a picture of me in a unicorn mask at the bottom of the screen Actually, no The gong goes off. Yeah. This is this. Oh, don't don't drop the pillow Don't talk about today Anime master take it away Okay Hello, everyone. Welcome to my talk today. I'm with today. We're gonna be talking about customer service stop skills 101 Now before we go to customer service, let's first start off with the basics next slide Okay customer service happens you got to follow in truck First off, let's look at Don't run into you and ask customer service. Don't want to fell down.  Number two Have to see if nipples are hard. All I can know they might have some fetid and they're lying on the ground So you gotta check for it before you start kissing. Number three essentially If it's the opposite sex, this one works the best and who knows maybe you'll find the love of your life Number four a pike a breeze done to draw to the neck if they're not waking up. They're dead. Just kill them Use hands to be hard and nipples. What's your nipple does not harden their doom Because no one does not no one's nipples do not harden under stimuli Because if you go all the way down there you might as well just marry Well, now what do we have here spinner in the truck kids? Well, what do you do with a spinner? You basically just play a game because customer service 99% of the people who call you are just bored the hell out of their mind So you gotta know how to use a spinner because there's no spinner was there's no game without a spinner and next Is that Japanese because the pan is really the best place you can go if your customer service as you talk about anime Just speak random Japanese. It'll be super satisfying. You've got ten out of ten rating next As an anime fan, can you read that slide to me? No Customer service is Important you're the reason why this country has put directions on shampoo because 50% of people are illiterate They're going to call you and ask to read it to them, but that's all right because Whenever your customer service you're going to meet hard problems.  Just be a you're amazing. You're cool. It doesn't matter next slide now when things go wrong as customer service really a lot of things really do go wrong and But the most important things your customers God if a meteorite crashes outside your company or what the hell you're working at It doesn't matter your customers God. You got to get that 10 out 10 review What was your losing your job and most importantly? It doesn't matter that it's on fire. Just keep on dancing next Now the most important part of customer service is say goodbye, you don't want to pay it up That's awkward.  They don't know who you are you're just that voice on the other line and Work case if it doesn't work out all you got to do is ask them for the credit card and they'll hang up next Oh, you're done Okay, any question. Oh What is your favorite favorite anime pairing and why why do you hate Naruto? We call it an OTP, but Okay And let your parents that's actually pretty hard for Dora. How's that? Actually amazing Okay, I also have a question.   Well, that's okay Spam you go first. Oh, I'm not really sure what happened there. So I'm gonna give you 14 burbs huh and Since since Lintel looks disappointed.


Hello. Today I want to explain how to look up either a book title or a journal title to see if we already have it in our collection. What I did here on the screen is a search on medical interpreting and deaf patients. I scrolled down and found this link. The deaf studies Encyclopedia by Sage. I happen to know we have that encyclopedia, but it doesn't show you the RIT link. It's just blank. What I will do is copy the book title and look for it in our RIT libraries catalog. Now I'm on the RIT libraries homepage, library.rit.edu. In the middle you see tabs. I'm going to click on catalog. And here I can see the link to the encyclopedia. I'm going to click on that. The best way to search for that topic is, in my case, I will click on interpreting I to find interpreting. Medical. I can see it here. And now you have access to that article that you may have thought we didn't have. It's always good to double check to see whether that book is in our library catalog. Well, that sums up what to do when you find something that we may have in our library using Google Scholar.


I read this quote the other day. It said my alone feels so good that I'll only have you in my life if it's better than my solitude. Who needs to hear that from you today?


So, let's start this meeting in about five minutes, when it becomes nine o' five. Just to give more time for more people to join us. Can you start sharing your desktop? Can you see my screen? Yes. Good. Let's give it four more minutes and see whether we have more people join us. Now we have nine people. I assume everyone is working from home now. I will go to work, go to my office after this meeting. Okay. Hey, y'all, it's Amy just dropping on in to be able to come see. If you want to be able to send me a link to the agenda, I will add it on to the CNCF like public calendar so we've got run through. Great. Next time we would make sure to do that. Thank you, Amy. Oh, yeah, totally fine. I mean, just drop it to me anytime that's fine. And thanks for joining us today. Happy to. Is it a good time for you? You know, at this time of the day. Oh yeah, it's fine. It's only 6pm for me. I'm based on the West Coast. I'm out of Pacific time. Okay, sure. Yeah, that's good. Yeah, I might not always be able to make it, but I'd like to be able to know when stuff is and we will work on being able to put this up on our YouTube channel as well so that other people know this is happening. That's great. Thank you. Yeah, happy to. So let's give it two more minutes and then let's get started. Okay, so today let's begin. Hello, everyone, and thanks for coming to today's meeting. And this is Queenie from pink up and I'm also a same CFM buster. It's my great honor to be the monitor of this first ever type TV community meeting. So, on the, basically up for this meeting on the fourth Wednesday of every month, unless otherwise specified, the take me community host this monthly meeting by video conference to discuss the status of taking the new features will discuss will be discussed and everyone on the list of the location and familiarity of the product is welcome to join us and the the meeting is recorded and will be shared on the same set of YouTube channel and thanks for supporting us on this. Thank you. Yeah. For today, I'm will be the monitor and one team will will be the note taker.  And then we will move on to the agenda to the items on the agenda today so sit down. Could you please kick off this meeting. Thank you. And hi everyone. It's my honor to do the kick off. And my name is sitting and now you can see under the leader of tech we project. Since tech we open the source on April fully for state 2016. It had been widely used in production and in the world. And now as far as I know, might be a hundred or business companies use take me in production and the biggest cluster maybe have already serve more than four take up by the data one cluster. And also, thanks the same there for having tech we under support is growth as it's incubating project. Hope we can graduate soon. This is our first community meeting, but I think this is still a game leap for the tech TV. We hope more and more people can join us in building a striving community together. And thank you very much. Thank you. So, the next item on the agenda is an introduction. I will start with the introduction about TV first and then I would invite people in the, as the attendee to introduce themselves and gets connected with each other. And we now have 11 attendees in this meeting. Okay, so I think everyone in this meeting are very familiar is an open source distributed and transactional key value database. So, basically, and it's now incubating project of the cloud native computing foundation. So this is very important to everyone of us. And so, with that, let's start the introduction of the attendees today. So, well, would you like to start me. Sure, I'm Amy, I am the program manager from CNCF. I'm delighted to see you all doing this. Thank you. So the next up, Calvin, would you like to introduce yourself to the, to the meeting. Yeah, sure. Hello, everybody and Calvin Calvin when I'm also working in pink cap at currently currently as the content strategist and sort of in the community manager for the tech project. Happy to know you all. Thanks. Thank you, Calvin. Next up, would you like to introduce yourself to the, I saw you, your microphone is up. The Yan, can you hear me. Okay. So maybe not ready and James. Jim phone, could you be the next up. I'm Jim phone, the engineer of takeaway. And I'm happy here to have this meeting. Yeah. Yes, that's all. Thank you. Okay, thanks for joining us.

Thanks. So next up pink. Hi, I'm eating. I'm now a senior in South China University of technology. And I'm also an intern in pink cap. And he will do a fantastic demo today. So the next two attendees, I think they are distinguished guests in our meeting. And they are. Tany King, each one and dobbin Lee. So let's start with the dobbin. Thank you, dobbin. Can you hear me. Hello, everyone. I'm a needle been currently working for JD cloud and AI and cloud provider in China. I'm the director of the past platform. The platform is a service department. Okay. Thank you. Thank you, dobbin. Welcome to this meeting. So the next one. Which is also could be called Kenny. I guess. Could you please introduce yourself to the to the other people. Hello, everyone. My name is Tony and I work for make me previously and AI technology in China. And I'm also tired KV cometer in co-possessor sick. Thank you. Thank you. So we also have other distinguished guests with us to and they are the contributors I guess. So, Tony Liu. You didn't have your microphone. Can you hear us. Or talk to us. Oh, one more people joined and I see wink is with us now. So, let's start with the please so the could you please introduce yourself to the meeting to the members at this meeting. Thank you. Yeah, hi everyone. I'm the end and I'm from Shenzhen. I'm a kind of a new contributor to take a V and I'm from the new usability. Program and I become the new contributor. And I'm very glad to join this community and I'm very willing to learn more about distributed system and storage system. And I'm a software engineer from DJI, the drone company. And that's all. Thanks. Thank you. Welcome to the community. And the next up is Tony. Tony, could you please introduce yourself. We see now you're geared up with your micro Tony. Liu, can you hear me. Okay, let's move on to Wink. Wink would you like to say hi to the meeting. Hi, everyone. Could you hear me. Yes. Hi, I'm Wink. I'm focused on the tech community. And the maintainer of tech TV. And I work for pink cap. About three years. Okay, thank you for joining us. Wink. So now, Tony, if you're ready to say hi, we could have you on for if you're not, we can just move on to the next item on the agenda. Okay. Yeah. Let's move on to the next item on the agenda. So, the next one is from Calvin and he will spend 10 to 15 minutes to update the community governance and there was some important announcement in his slide as well. So, could you please share your screen, Calvin. Thank you. Okay. So, sharing my desktop. Yeah, I've stopped my sharing and you're up. Okay. So, can you see my desktop now. Yes. Okay. Okay. Okay, how everybody so it's my honor to be here today to bring you update to some of the changes in the tech community. And I will share with you some of the news exciting news as well. So firstly, I want to start with some major updates on the government governance model and the governance of tech project. To start, let's get something get some justification for this updates. So why do we update this governance. Firstly, of course, because everything is changing and like other open source projects that take the project is involving very fast towards maturity and the community grows along the way. So, originally we have we had a version of governance but it's kind of to simplify it in terms of the setting of community roles. For example, the previous version, they only defined the maintainer role. And the expectations and requirements of maintainer but there's nothing said about contributors. And so the group's path or the promotion path is not clear. Especially for new contributors, they're not clear as to what they expected. What are the expectations for them. How far away from the maintainer role because maintainer is a very high bar to reach. Also, to add to the fact that tech is a very hardcore projects. And that's kind of not clear enough and not welcoming enough to contributors. Yeah, these are some of the background of the updates. So first updates is the guiding principles. Yeah, we finally have them. Actually, yeah, it's just a simple document but it's really important because although we know clearly what we are doing and what we are going to do. But we also want it properly documented and make other people in the community know about our visions and our beliefs. And yeah, there's some common values in the open source projects in which I highlighted some of the points that I really hope to be reflected in the refactored governance. Yeah, this is the guiding principles. And for the governance itself, a major updates is the community structure and roles. As I mentioned the original version, there's only maintenance. We don't know what about other roles. And so, currently, we for the tech project and the tech community, and we have three major groups, which are maintainers, special interest groups and users. Mainteners, of course, are the are the first and foremost contributors of the project. And they're, they have a very deeper understanding of the project, and they set the directions and oversee the health development of the project. Mainteners, they come from committees, and all they they can also come from user groups of ecosystems, which is this cannot be possible in previous version of governance because previously maintenance can only be achieved through, you know, contributions to the code base. Yeah, and the four in the middle we have this special interest groups. So tech project are are primary, primarily operated in special interest groups. It is divided into multiple, especially of six, it's divided in multiple six. Each of them will correspond to a tech heavy module or major feature or components. The SIG is organized or managed by the two to three tech leads. They're initially designed by maintainers upon the establishment of the SIG. And within each SIG, they're for, by the way, the tech lead are just the management role within SIG. They are not community roles. So, within each SIG, there are four community roles, starting from contributor and going all the way up to contributor, reviewer and committer. And so each corresponding to are clearly a set of clearly defined requirements and expectations and the privileges, of course. So this is defined as such so that contributors, they enter the community and they know clearly what are they expected for each level. And also it's easier and clearer to achieve the next level. So at the bottom, we have users, which we didn't have in the previous in the previous previous version. So the users are very important group and without users, we do not have a goals or motivations and users, the user group, they immediately, they evangelize the other projects, they share their best practices and they continuously engage with the tech project during the adoption, which would be very helpful to other potential users in the ecosystem. Yeah. And so users can also when they get more and more involved in the project, they may find themselves in the path of, you know, contributor, or they contribute significantly in the project. They could directly be promoted to maintenance as well. So the merits in this structure is that we can build a community that's more welcoming, more belonging, and more rewarding. And also this structure, as I mentioned, it allows diversity in the governance, especially in the diversity in the maintainer structure. Okay. That's the structure. And another things we made some updates is the decision making process. And it's the decision making and it's primarily done through issues and peers and it's based on consensus, specifically the lazy consensus model. And also, we have the guiding principles and CNCF could conduct to direct the decision making process. And of course, in very rare cases, some consensus cannot be reached. Then we will result to the voting by the maintainers. This is the decision making process. And also another important aspect of the governance is the proposal process. We have this process. Actually, it's called a request for comment process. We have had this, actually, I think since the beginning of the TechView project, and it's well done aspect of the community to increase the visibility. And to encourage more contributions from the contributors. Anyone can compose and they can do this by opening a PR and it will be discussed and approved by Stanford sensors. Of course, for future proposals, we recommend that you first bring it to the secret discussion before the actual proposing, because that may, that will help save the time and improve the efficiency. Also, another major proposal is to create, create new six projects. That's the similar process. Yeah. Yeah, that's major highlights in the governance updates. Of course, it's still in iteration, we'll keep on updating it as they practice it. And so if you find anything that you think is not right, or something you think could be better, let us know. Yeah. Next up we have some very great news and announcement to share with you. Yeah, firstly, I want to start with the security auditing, we passed the security auditing that is conducted, that was conducted by a third party company and sponsored by CMC. Yeah, although we have been tested by by many of hundreds of companies who adopted the tech TV that we it's very important to have this auditing. And we have some major release releases to be expected, the 3.1 and 4.0 GA versions are to be expected in the following one or two months. Yeah, with a lot of cool features. And following the governance, the refacted governance, we have continuous continuously create new six to cover all the major components, modules, modules of tech TV. Currently, we have six, six. Actually, the names are pretty self evidence, you can, you can tell what the six about just by looking at the names. Yeah, and the mosics to be created. Yeah, and also, I'd like to welcome. The new contributors in the community in the last month. Thank you. We have a Zihua and in the meeting ready, and congratulations again, and also we have simple sloppies and the garden GD and I'm not sure whether I pronounced this right, but yeah, welcome. Next is our new committers. They're very important. Promotion, because they, they are promoted to based on our new governance model. They are all in the co-processing. So, you didn't wait, it's not here, but we have, we have tiny John here. Congratulations again, and we look forward to more contributions from you and hopefully you will enjoy in this role and continuously challenge yourself.  John. Yeah. Hi, Kenny. Say something about today's, this new role. Okay. Why not nearly a way. It's not here. I joined co-processing and submit multiple PRs for co-processing and then I joined the performance challenge program and the usability challenge program and the mentor is very helpful and then I become the commentator and it's very interesting. Yeah, thank you. Okay. Last but not least update is our new maintainer nomination. Yeah, and we just created this PR for nominating. It's the PR created by our maintainer VINC and to nominate Dobbing Lee from JD Cloud as a takeover maintainer. So actually, this also something that is made possible by our new governance model. Dobbing has been a very significant significant member of JD Cloud when I in the process of adopting and taking it in there in their project. And he has been keep keeping engaged with the tech project by sharing their success for adoption. And also he contributed to her by proposing important feature to the tech project. Hi, Dobbing. Of course, this PR has not been met, has not been merged by, but I think that currently the maintenance have already reached the consensus. Dobbing, do you like to say something about this nomination? How do you feel? Thanks. I'm very glad to hear that TechWe have the nominate me as a maintainer. Thanks, very, very thanks for this. And currently we adopted the TechWe as our core meta database of our object storage in JD Cloud and AI. Currently, my company then changing from the JD Cloud to JD Cloud and AI after merge the AI and IoT department into the cloud department. And currently we also adopted the TechWe as many other, many other middleware in the JD Cloud and AI, especially in the some storage engine, storage engine of the some middleware and still working on this. Okay. That's all. Thank you. Thank you. That's, that's really fantastic. And we're really looking forward to, you know, working with you as the TechWe maintainer. Yeah. Okay, with that, I will end my updates on the community. So, anyone has any questions? Okay. Back to you, Kuni. Thank you, Calvin, for the community updates and a lot of warm welcome to the community and big congratulations to all to the new committers and new maintainer. I see that there are quite a few people joining us after the introduction and Ed has spoken up. Are you still there, Ed? Would you like to see hi to the meeting? Okay, we missed him right there. And Xiao Guang joined us as well. Would you like to say hi, Xiao Guang? Okay, I didn't expect that I would speak something here. I'm very glad to see new maintainers here and I see a great improvements to TechWe and we are really looking forward for the new release. And we hope we can do it better and make TechWe really great. Thank you. We're truly working on that. Let's make that happen. Thank you. Other people who are joining us later. I think Xiao is there. Xiao, would you like to say hi? Okay. If not, let's move on to Ginger Kittney. Okay. Anyone who wants to speak up, please raise your hand and let the people in the team know you. I will not just call people's names now. Thanks. Okay, so let's move on to the next item on the agenda and that would be the community sharing, which will last for 15 or 20 minutes. And it's a feature demo from Yiling Chen. Yiling, could you please share your screen? Sure. Thank you. So Yiling's presentation is about the unified rate pool effect. Let's see what's exciting there. Thank you. We can see your screen now. Hi, everyone. I'm Yiling and I'm now an intern in Pincap. And today I'm going to introduce to you the new threading model in TechEV, the unified rate pool. In TechEV, previously we have lots of thread pools for reading. As shown in the slide, we have two main models of reading, the co-processor part, which mainly handles the request from TechEV and the storage module, which handles some other requests. For example, the single point gets requests. Each request has its own priority. So previously we make a threshold for each priority. So we had thread pools for reading previously, but that's a problem. There were too many thread pools. And the problem is we want to fully utilize the resource of the computer. So the total sum of thread numbers of all these thread pools are far greater than the whole CPU course, logical course of the computer. Then if all these thread pools are busy, they will interfere with each other. If we have some big queries executing in the co-processor thread pools, then some small but important queries executing in the storage read pool will be affected. And to solve the problem, we introduce the unified read pool to unify all these thread pools into one and handle the priorities of the request by ourselves. It's the internal structure of the thread pool. It is like the typical worksheet stealing executors. Maybe some people who knows the scheduling go well can also see it like the schedule model in Go. But the difference is the global queue is not just a single queue. It contains several queues with different priorities. We set three queues in our thread pool and the L0 queue has the highest priority while the L2 queue has the lowest priority. It is just like the multi-level feedback queue algorithm, which is widely used in operating systems. But here we don't do exactly the same. The priority is implemented by the chance or the possibility that a task in the queue is stolen by each thread. So we can see in the left the queue with highest priority has the highest chance to be stolen. And actually our goal is to guarantee most of the CPU time is used for the shots, the small tasks, which is typically more important. So we said the goal is 80% of the CPU time should be used by the tasks in the L0 queue. And it not specified the tasks which run slower, which is shorter than 5 milliseconds in the L0 queue. And if the task runs longer than expected, it will move to the queues which has lower priorities. And we also implement self-adaptive of the possibility of each queue. Because we don't exactly know the situation of the tasks, the running situation of each task from the queues. And sometimes we found the queues, the tasks running from the L0 queue are taking more time than we expected, like this. We found the tasks from the L0 queue are taking more time than we expected. We will lower the priority of the L0 queue a bit, maybe decrease it to 50% and increase the chance of the lower queues a bit. Increase the chance of the L1 queue to maybe 40%. But if we found maybe the tasks from the L2 queue are taking very long time, we will also lower the chance of the L2 queue. Then we can make our go. The 80% of CPU time is used for the L0 tasks. And there is also a problem. If a task itself takes very long time, we cannot schedule it as a whole. For example, if a task, usually a co-processor task, can take maybe one second. But if we schedule a task of one second as a whole, it will have very bad effect. So we must cut the task into very small pieces, like the time slices in operating systems. In TIKI-V, we are using the single-way feature to create co-routines conveniently. Then it means we can cut a big task into very small pieces and schedule them by small time slices. At the end of the time slice, we can yield the task and schedule another task. Now we can achieve our go. That's the brief introduction of the design of the thread pool. Next, I will do a simple demo about the effect of it. Thank you, Yiling. Okay. Can you see my screen? Yes. Finally, I will show you the typical situation some of our users will meet if we are using the old threading model. Let me run the TIKI-V with the old threading model. We are meeting some OLTP requests by SysBench. Here we run a SysBench to run some small requests. We can see we have about more than 3,000 TPS. Let's see a bit about the CPU usage. You can see the normal threads are the co-processor repos executing the requests. Now I will simulate running a BigQuery. Maybe it's like an OLTP request. It is executed sometimes by a user manually. Now we can see from the below the co-processor repos are fully utilized. They have about 100% of CPU usage. Now we can see our normal OLTP requests and the TPS are affected. Let me stop it. Though I stop it, but the effect will not disappear immediately. It will still run depending on commands. Now it's restored. Now I will demonstrate what will happen if we use the new unified thread pool. Let me run TIKI-V with the new thread pool. As usual, let me use SysBench to simulate small requests and normal OLTP requests. Now it looks just like before. When I run a BigQuery now, we can also see the unified thread pool is fully utilized. We don't waste any CPU usage, but we can see the normal OLTP requests are nearly not affected. Because we set our goal when the pool is fully utilized, about 80% of CPU time will still be spent on the small and important OLTP requests. That's all from my demo. Thanks. Thank you, Yilin. Thank you for sharing the designing and the demo. It's very cool. Okay, so now can you see my screen? So the next up on the agenda is introduction to the usability challenge program and the GSOC project. So as for the usability challenge program, we now have our contributors join us from there. We launched the usability challenge program together with TIKI-V, and in the following less than three months, you are officially challenged and you're welcome to join us in this challenge program and help improve the usability of TIKI-V and its related projects. So tasks are ready, mentors are set, and the prizes are up for the grad. It's time to have some fun hacking. And the next one is the GSOC, the Google Summer Code project. So we have the students who want to participate in the GSOC with the TIKI-V project. I expected to provide their resumes and join us in the select channel and have their introductions. So the important dates are the March 31st, 1800 UTC. So that's the deadline for the student application. And that's all we have on the agenda. Anyone has any questions or have a self introduction if you didn't have a chance to do so? Yes, please raise your hand using the tool on the Zoom application. I don't think people want to speak up. So if not, let's call this, let's call it a day for today's meeting and we will send out a questionnaire and so we need to get your feedback regarding this meeting, how can we move this forward and make this better. So thank you everyone for joining us today and have a great one for each and every one of you. And please help me and help the team to make this meeting more effective and more useful for everyone in this meeting. Thank you for joining us today. Thank you. Good to see you all.


Hello and we're glad to know you're still there and watching the run-up. The first edition of this year 2023, I'll still get used to calling 2023. It's like I'm stuck in 2022. But in 2023, we're going to take a look at some of the things that shaped the political landscape of that year and ultimately is going to end in this year because this is the year of election. February and March will be the times for election of our representatives, people who will now take the helm of affairs and pilot this ship called Nigeria or this plane called Nigeria to expected end, we hope. So we'll be discussing some of these things and with us to discuss this is Dr. Moshallah Deji. He is joining us now to talk on some of these issues. Hello, Dr. Deji, welcome to the program. Good morning, thanks for having me. Yes, in 2022 a lot of activities really happened. We had the Electoral Act, we had the Milokon, we had so many other things. Let's begin with the Electoral Act and how you think it shaped the political landscape or it is going to shape the political landscape from now on to the election proper in February and March? Well, the Electoral Act is going to shape the political landscape remarkably, especially with the introduction of the Biva system by the Electoral Empire. The 2023 election is going to be different. Mostly, most likely it will be more credible, reliable because of the introduction of technology. We all know that technology makes things easier. Technology increase the credibility of election and we hope that INEC will be able to follow it through. And the President himself has shown commitment by signing the bill into law for the introduction of the electronic system. Unlike before the 2019 election where the President was elected to sign, apparently because he is participating in the election and he felt that the introduction of such technology would be to his own disadvantage. So the introduction of the Biva system as put forward by the New Zealand Electoral Act is a remarkable progress for the Nigerian populace in terms of electoral credibility. And I think introduction of such technology has increased citizens' interest in the participation of the election. We see that more people have turned out to register and now they are collecting their PBC, the youth are eager. And that's what we've always said that when the process is credible, there will be less political party. So the Electoral Act is a step in the right direction and it is a remarkable significant progress for our electoral system come 2023 presidential and gubernatorial and legislative elections. Yes, the Bivas has had a demonstration sort of in the AKT and Oshun elections. How would you rate the level of success of these Bivas? The level of success of the Bivas to me has been very significant because it has helped electoral practice. We have a situation in this country before now whereby a lot of aprecadabra are caused while they are transporting the results from the police unit to the police center. And I think that is not right in these days of technology. If I can be where I am, I'm speaking to you directly in the studio now. Why can't we use that also for our electoral process? So I think that the Bivas system, especially because if you are able to transmit the results instantly and it's uploaded to the INEC portal as increased the electoral proposal, you will see that in particular, I can't recognize Oshun or AKT whereby a particular polling officer was allegedly trying to manipulate the reporter by refusing to upload the results on the INEC portal alleging that there's no internet. The citizens themselves said, no, we have internet. We will give you. You must upload it. So the introduction of the system has remarkably helped to reduce the magic that we used to have, the manipulation of figures that we used to have. And it helps for the citizens and even the political parties and the candidates to know the results real time. So the transparency that the Bivas system has introduced into the system, our electoral process is one thing that Nigerians must be glad about because when politicians know that if the electoral system is transparent and if you don't perform, if you don't meet up, if people don't want you, there is likely that you will lose the election. It will in turn increase performance in governance unlike the system we've had before whereby when politicians win elections, they believe that they are just there for their own interests and that of their family. So the Bivas system to me has really helped remarkably for the Osho and Ekiti and also a number of elections. And I believe that going forward, it should be encouraged and for the 2023 election, if we truly want credibility, then we should have the Bivas system. The argument about internet and in some areas of the country, I believe that the argument is baseless because the Bivas system should be done in such a way that even if it is with 3G or 2G network, you can still be able to upload the result on the system. And I never said that just like our text messages, if you send a WhatsApp message and there's no network on your phone at that point in time, whenever there is network, the message automatically delivers. So the Bivas system has been made to operate in such ways that even if there's no network, it will later deliver. And I believe that that is what we need right now, especially in our political system whereby politicians can go to any length to make sure that they support themselves on the Nigerian people. We're looking at political issues that shaped 2022. And we cannot do that without mentioning the speech that was given by the present presidential candidates of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, when he came out and declared during a campaign event that it is his turn to become the president of Nigeria. And he went ahead to, when there was a bit of back and forth about his speech, he went ahead to remind the present president, Mohammad Buhari, about his past electoral defeats before 2015. Even the Stribulet, as we used to see on Twitter, hit a lot of people, including Governor Abiodu and Vice President Yemio Shibangio.  And people at the time, the conversations surrounding that speech was that he was going to mar his presidential aspiration at the time. But as it is, he has gone ahead to become the candidate running for the APC. Do you think that the effects of that speech are still in the bags and would come forth just before the elections? Or how do you see that? Well, it depends on how Nigerians take the speech of the APC presidential candidate at that point in time. Some Nigerians will see it as it's right. Some will think that maybe he's speaking the truth anyway, that he actually helped these people that he has named. And it is of public knowledge that he was quite very influential as a political striker of the APC at that time to ensure victory for his party. Now, I haven't said that. Some Nigerians will also think that the statement is a narrow-gant statement that you don't play God. You don't see yourself as the god of a democratic system, even if you have no form of influence on the other. And coming out in public to make such a statement, it is least expected of somebody of his caliber, especially at an election period. An election period is when politicians are most humble. An election period is when politicians are most respectful. But sadly, that has not been the attitude of the APC presidential candidate. What we've seen, like his arrogance, his attributing victory on himself is the personalization of political power. And I think that is not right. This is the same person that we said that the mentioning of the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Albee, it is an insult to him. This is the same person that we say, the mentioning of the PDP, Deputy Governorship Candidate in Lagos, the main mentioning of her name, it is an insult to him. The question is, who are you? Are you God? You don't play God, especially when you are going to meet people to vote for you. The same people that you are playing God to, attributing the Alpha and Omega status to yourself. And at the end of the day, you expect the people to vote for you. So I think the ignorance would disown based on how they take the statement. But as for the presidency, I think that in the mind of President Mahmoud Ubarri, I don't think the statement would go down well with him. And we can see the manifestation of that during the APC primary. One would not really think that the president would support Ashwani Bola-Mehtingwu based on the support that Ashwani gave to him for his emergence in 2019 and in 2015. But the president stayed away and let the process evolve. Luckily for Ashwani, he was able to emerge. But Yobas will say that the child abused the Iroko tree and he looks back. He has forgotten that the Iroko tree is not going to act immediately. If you permit to say that in Yoba, he says, if the president is going to act, he has all the power, he is the commander-in-chief of the opposite and he has nothing to lose. So if the arrogance continues, he is sending a message to the political, especially the non-political oligarchs of how his presidency is going to be. What I put yesterday, when former president of Lushak Obash Ojo who has the right to support whoever he wants based on his own assessment of the candidate, but what did the spokesperson of the APC presidential candidate say? He regarded President Obash Ojo's support as worthless. You can't be saying that. It doesn't cost you anything to say, so we thank you with respect to Opino or Nigerians who want to decide. So the arrogance in the camp of the APC presidential candidate himself is not helping matters at all. So let for me, I think the arrogance is one too many, it is getting too much and it needs to turn down the way he speaks, the way he approaches things, and portion is eight, which is very, very important. Caution is eight to take things easy. You have to be humble.  Now, if you now become president and you have the presidential powers to do and undo at your back and call, then what will you now be doing at that point in time? So far, he has been sending a long signal of arrogance, of the call of Nigerian politics, and I think that is not right for his presidential ambition. Okay, I know Bayo is standing by to ask you some other questions, but before we go to Bayo now, I'm just trying to pick your mind now. Before now, I know that Labour Party has produced like a governor, and we've heard their name somewhere, somewhere, as it is. But now, the prominence with which Labour Party has come into the political scene now for 2023 is because of the cross-capeting, if you permit me to say that, of one of the PDP hopefuls then, Peter Obey, into the fold of the Labour Party. And now, another thing emerged, another movement emerged that they call the Obedient Movement. Even at that, we also have the Kwan-Kwan-Sia op-not and a few other people who are trying to make impact, but basically there are like three major political parties now, or not even political parties, two, three major contenders for the position of the presidency. Do you see this third force, as people are calling it, coming to really tip the balance of these 2023 elections? And what gives you that hope? Well, the third force may, may not have the trophy at the end of the day, but one thing that has been clear is the flaws of the two prominent parties are people Peter Obey is tired of, that he is enjoying now. And if you look at it, in the mind of right-thinking Nigerians, I believe that majority of Nigerians think that it is wrong. For a country with over 250 ethnic groups, the full and the ethnic stock are about eight years, then you don't want to bring in another full and the mad at a time when the session is straight in the country, at a time when even the man at the hem of our first president, as performed woefully. So you're not bringing another full and the mad.  Maybe Nigerians will think that it is in the ethnic chain of the full and the, to kind of like perform remarkably when they are in power. But that has not been the case if we are to access the body as minister. Hello, Deji. I think there's been an interruption. Yeah, well, as soon as Deji is back, we're going to bring him back to continue what he was saying. In the meantime, I'm sure, Bayo, you're just waiting to bombard him with some more questions. Even though whatever question you ask him is not like he's at the hem of affairs that you will tell him what he is. Yes. Hello? Yes. Okay. As I was saying, the flaw in the APC ticket as well has really helped Pitao be. Maybe if both parties, the APC and PDP had presented a candidate without any permission or flaws, I think Pitao would not be enjoying the stardom that he is enjoying. Because if we look at the APC ticket, the Muslim-Muslim ticket, it is absolutely a bad woman for the future of the Nigerian state. And the APC presidential candidate himself has not helped himself so remarkably because of the baggage that he carries. This is a candidate that Nigerians can't really say what is your true name, what is your true background, what is the true source of your wealth, what is the status of your health. These are things that have been hidden in somewhat mystery or the other. And that is where I salute President, former President of Lusia, he has shown that he is not an ethnic man by assessing the candidate. And I think President Obama in fairness to him is right. If you as an elder state man could come out and say you want to support a candidate whereby so many things are shrouded in secrecy, I think that would decrease the respect that former President Obama although has both in Nigeria and outside the country itself. So I think it is a good day for Peter to be born. The likelihood of his emergence is still somewhat slim based on the issue of structure, based on the issue of his penetration to the not. And when I say the not, when I say that with strong interest, I have not seen Peter will be do much to win the heart of the not an oil polo, the talacahuas of the not. Who we all know have a strong hosting power. So I think that Peter will be despite his bright stances if he really wants to clinch the presidency of Nigeria. He has to go north. His approach has to be much of south. He has to go north. Like the right now, he has to begin to penetrate the not an population and vote. And I think if he is able to achieve that, his chances will become brighter. Okay, let's go to Bayo now. Bayo is standing by. Bayo, over to you now. Thank you very much, thank you so much for that for your incisive analysis. I will start with the last point. You said that Peter will be wishes to the president of Nigeria. He has to go north. There are those who believe that the key to Peter will be winning. And you have, of course, juxtaposed that relative to that of Anshi Wachu and the former vice president but some people believe that Peter will need to get the middle belt and get the northeast. Do you believe, first of all, that that is a right strategy and secondly, do you think that the Labor Party has the resources to marshal such an endeavor on the side of Peter will be? Well, if I can answer your question, your point is very logical and that's why you see that in my submission, I didn't give Peter will be a past man but I didn't say, oh yes, he's going to get the trophy. As a political scientist I'm saying that Peter will be as a lot of work to do in terms of the structure and I've said it on other platforms before that, there are some people that will even wish to vote for Peter will be and it will be difficult for them to locate the logo of the Labor Party in terms of making the Labor Party an household name everybody knows the logo of PDP and APC I don't think that is occurring on the part of the Labor Party then we not, it's very important and I can break it down into two now, Peter will be an emergent largely relies on the North, then by the North I mean the North Central the North East and the the North West in the sense that if you go back to the Ezio Buklu of the 1960s that has brought some kind of a good suspicion between the South East and the Northern Oligarchs as that suspicion being erased by the emergence of Peter will be how do they see a Peter will be presidency do they see Peter will be a someone that can carry them along or won't come back for when they are based on the alleged injustice that has been meted out by Northern politicians and military men who have had the opportunity to occupy power over the decade that question to me I think has been left largely unanswered but if we are to trace it back by by how many support Peter will be as gotten from the Northern Oligarchs who will say that it is pure and that to me means that that ethnic suspicion that was erased when the Northern Oligarchs supported former president to clinch the presidential seat of Nigeria in 1999 we do not have that now for Peter will be and these Northern Oligarchs whether we like it or not and good followership I served in Kano during my NYC years back and one of the things that I realized is that they not still have this system this like command and control system whereby one rich man that is seen as the demigod that everybody are shouting Ranka did it for can say okay go this way and before you know it the talakawas the alimajiris you just go that way they not still have a system whereby when the respected religious clerics speaks and say oh go this way you find them going that way so the Northern Oligarchs how Peter will be has been able to mingle with them to gain their trust will largely impact on whether he wins the presidential seat or not that said is penetration to the the talakawas themselves just like it will be difficult when Buhari was contested in 2015 for a Northern Oligarch to tell the talakawas that don't vote Buhari because Buhari has made himself like the masses champion at that point in time so if Peter will be is not going to mingle with the Northern Oligarch which I think he needs to then he has to make him he has to sell himself to the Northern grassroots so that he can present himself as the candidate that they need but right now those two issues I think are a major thing that Peter will be needs to work on one is penetration of the Northern Oligarch to the acceptability by the Northern masses okay just a quick follow-up if you can allows me you mentioned in response to your question about the substantial impact of the beavers in the next elections and I believe your analysis was bottom but something that is allied to that could also be the number of registered voters in each of the geopolitical zones of the country and I saw it data if that data is correct it was a data about the number of people who have not yet collected their pvc's now in the North that number is in the few thousands it is over 3 million who have not collected their pvc's in the South East it is over a million people who have not collected their pvc's how do you see this if these figures are correct how do you see this impacting the next elections well I see it impacting the election for the candidate from the regions you mentioned if by any chance the election goes the ethnic way because and one of the problem with the 2023 election is that we have major candidate from the three major ethnic groups of Nigeria we have the PDP from the Ustafu from the Ibo from the from the from the South West so if the ethnic passion that we have always had in our election to go then Ashwajuti Numbu will be losing a huge chunk of vote and Peter will be will be losing a huge vote as well so I think that the collection of the pvc should be based on public enlightenment when people begin to see the essence of voting when people begin to see that voting during an election is more like an oxygen in nose ring then they would take it serious they would go out to participate in the electoral process but at it is now with the failures that we have in governors with the way politicians go into political office and just go there to represent themselves and their family this is affecting political participation but if the trend continues the way it is it will definitely affect most likely Peter will be and the candidate of the apc Ashwajuti Bona Amit Numbu will be because now in terms of the major ethnic group is a move to your tent and that is why that analysts have been saying that the election might go into Iran because if you look at the past election for you to become president of Nigeria you need the support at least of the three major ethnic groups if you look at past elections carefully if you are contesting you must add maybe the support of the Yoruba and the Awusa Fulani or for example the emergence of president Muhammad Ubarri and if you look at the formation of his cabinet and team it is majorly the Awusa Fulani and the Yoruba so during former president we have vote from the Awusa Fulani and the Ibo vote from the southwest not so much as a straight from the southwest but the Nigerian political history you need the support of two over three to become president now the problem is where that support comes from because Atikua Buberka is on the ballot Peter B is on the ballot and Ashwa Dutinumu is on the ballot and these are three strong candidates whether anybody likes it or not so I think the solution is people that wants to go all out to educate voters to make sure to make them see the reason why they must collect their PVC most Nigerians sincerely are bothered about survivors the economy is so hard like people are just struggling to survive so and if we are to put the market of needs into the picture now people will first of all think of how to survive first people will first of all think of how to live their life especially when they are sure that government would not address any of their plight in systems where by the government is responsive you see increased political participation it comes naturally so I think people that want to govern Nigeria both at the local government state and the federal level has to now go on out to educate people to ensure that they collect their PVC and I think the APC and the Labour Party has a lot to do in this regard okay Dr. Deji it's been wonderful having you there's so many other things that we could have talked about in the course of this program but because we are out of time would like to just say thank you to you for being a part of our show this morning thank you for being on this Wednesday well that was Dr. Moshallah Deji a political analyst he's a political scientist rather and he spoke to us on some of the issues that shaped the political landscape of 2022 and ultimately we're getting to the election proper in February and in March we're hoping that you are making effort to collect your PVC right now until January 15 it's still very close to you at your polling unit so wherever you are try to get to your polling unit before it gets back to the local government headquarters where you have to go and queue after maybe a thousand people have reached there like five o'clock so just try to figure out the fire brigade approach and make sure you go collect your PVC at this time we'll just take a short break to enable us to bring you the news and after that we'll be discussing between us Uche, Bayo and I on the letter that was written to the youths by the former president Oleshe-Guang Basangio just stay with us


What's up everyone? Takedown here. Welcome back to another video today. I'm gonna be sharing with you a channel updates. Let's get right into this I've been diving in and trying to create some more new content for you guys and even looking back at previous stuff That I've done and introduced that for you guys as well So you guys might have seen over the past couple months I've been diving more into my flipping for profit series The reason for that is because not only am I making extra money on the side, but I am also enjoying making that content for you guys However, because of the pandemic, it's been harder for me to find deals for you guys right now Thrift stores are closed because we're still in lockdown at the time I'm recording this next week Things are supposed to start opening up So hopefully I'll be able to get in thrift stores and get some more products to flip on eBay and other places But I want to continue with that series. Me and my girlfriend are also going to be looking into doing more videos together for my channel It's more specifically more taste tests and different things like that We do have a munchpack purchased and a Mexi crate We just have no time right now to record those videos So once we have time to record those videos, we're gonna be recording them and uploading those appropriately And I'm really excited because I am extremely interested in YouTube You guys know this and she's starting to want to do more videos too ever since she did her first one a while back And it did pretty decent for views more than what my regular munchpack and taste test videos do Which I'm assuming it's because she was there with me. It wasn't just me tasting stuff It was both of us. So there's a little bit more back and forth than my regular taste tests are used to so That's interesting and I'm excited that she's excited to do more videos on the channel and I can't wait to do more stuff with her and Of course, I want to bring back stuff, but one thing that is really doing well on the channel is tech videos. So PS4 how to fix or different things and it's really exciting So I know my first blue light of death video for the ps4, which was two years ago It is almost hitting 500,000 views on YouTube. I think it's that 450 something like that Which is crazy I've done since then an update a couple weeks ago back in January. Maybe For the blue light of death, I've done how to fix error messages on your ps4 How to fix your controller if it won't connect and some of those videos are starting to gain traction Which I'm extremely happy and hopefully They will be able to gain the traction that they need to start to hopefully skyrocket now Unfortunately because of YouTube once January hit. I'm still doing the same watch hours I'm still getting the same amount of views except I'm not earning as much I'm earning about half of what I was earning monthly for October November December January and February are about half of what those months were So it's been a little bit more stressful there But at least the channel is still making a little bit of money and hopefully some of these videos can start to pick up to make up for the Less money that the channel is earning Another thing that seems to be doing really well is anything that I talk about my career journey now People just want to know more about CBS a security a lot of the practice tests The firearms videos that I do so hopefully I'll be able to make more of those for you guys Some of those videos are close to getting ten thousand views So if that's something you guys want to see I will do more Unfortunately, there's not gonna be new content on CBS say or anything like that because they're still closed But I'm still waiting willing to make that content for you guys since you guys are so interested and give you guys updates on Certain things or certain requirements to do for testing and give you guys updates on that in future videos I've been wanting to do a lot more unboxing videos I recently back in January purchased a zek box Which I seen do you nerd unbox and I thought it was very interesting if you're in the US this box costs $60 shipped Unfortunately, if you're in Canada, it costs a hundred and twenty dollars shipped So it just is a little bit too pricey for me for what I received There was about maybe 15 comics in it I might try it again in a couple months and purchase one more to try it I am looking into mile-high comics and they offer a five pound comic book box Which equals out to be about 40 comic books for $50 all of them in near minutes now not all of them are bagged and boarded But all of them are going to be in near mint condition now You can select all Marvel and at least I'll know I'll get all Marvel comic books in this So that's interesting there and shipping is only seven dollars US to get it shipped to Canada So that's a total of fifty seven dollars US That would equal out to be about seventy dollars Canadian and I'm gonna get 40 comics compared to 15 comics for the zek box So I'm leaning more that way fifty dollars cheaper and you get a lot more comics I only purchased the zek box mainly for the comics So I think this is gonna be something that hopefully I'll purchase and get more of in the future And I'm excited to give them a try and not only that but I want to unbox other things on the channel I'm thinking of bringing back a wish unboxing video and a bunch of other things. I want to do some eBay mystery boxes for Funko pops and different things like that and grow a collection a little bit more and stuff and bring that stuff to the channel As well, I think that'd be a lot of fun another thing me my girlfriend might do is a Japanese Kit Kat taste test I did one maybe three years ago, but she's never tried any of that stuff I don't remember what that stuff tastes like so I might try to find those and do those and a Pocky taste test with her as well and bringing back not only more taste tests But just more fun videos in general I think is something that I really want to focus on the channel this year So just a recap for the channel expect to see more tech videos More unboxing videos more flipping for profit videos and more videos with my girlfriend Hopefully some taste tests and different videos that we decide to do together We're also considering right now to do cooking videos on the channel I absolutely love cooking and we love cooking together So that's something that would be interesting to bring on the channel because we have a bunch of dishes that we love And there's some of our signature dishes.
