Rwy'n meddwl, rwy'n meddwl i'r micrwyffrindig. Ynno, ddweud i i ffraeg yma. Mae'r amser yn ystod. Rwy'n meddwl i'r ystod. Ego yw fynd i'r ymddiolol a'r ystyried ymddiol yn ei wneud? Rwy'n meddwl i'r Bank o New Zealand. Mae'r Bank yn New Zealand. Mae gwybod y gwybod yn yr adrodd y tîn. Mae'r cymdeithas ar gyfer yn ymddangol. I'm the one on the left, by the way, in case you're thinking, the one on the right is my little boy. So, thanks a lot for having me at Agil India. I've had a little tour around Bangalore on Monday and found some fellow Kiwis, which was great in the market. So, that's always good to see. Now, this is my Agil ego, right? It's pretty big, right? My Agil is pretty big and I'm going to talk more about my ego and how that plays into the playbook a little bit later. So, I want to talk about a Bank of New Zealand, how we're set up. I started working with them around about three years ago. And being said digital, it's about 300, 350 people, something like that. Part of the bank, the bank as a whole is 5,000 people. And being said digital itself is set up along the Spotify snapshot model. You all roughly know what the Spotify snapshot is. Tribes with groups of squads or self-organising teams around them. And a tribe, fundamentally, is centred around a product, a customer, some jobs to be done. And we're structured like this. So, we've got a partner's tribe and they look at business digital banking, so online banking, mobile banking. We've got what we call consumer wealth. They look at retail banking and they're split up into sub-tries, what we call Hapu. Hapu is a Mādi New Zealand term for a sub-tribe. Then we've got what we call a platform's tribe and they look at engineering, some of the stuff that the other self-organising teams consume. And then we've got our creative services. It's a bit more like an agency model, but it's shared across all these other teams. And this includes UX designers, UX researchers and practice coaches of which I'm one. And then we've got performance and capability and they look at data analytics and things like that. So, each one of our teams has got a product owner. And when I first came in, there was a bit of an awkward relationship between product management, UX and Agile. And it was a bit like a three-way handshake. It was a bit of an embarrassing handshake from New Zealand World Cup a few years ago. And it was a very difficult relationship. And when I first came in about three years ago, one of the senior designers says, can you come and speak about Agile to some of the rest of the design team? And I said, sure, yeah, I'll do that. So I went along and I started to talk about Agile and it all sat like this. And I kind of start to read a bit about body language and I could tell they were a little bit switched off about Agile. So I said to them, hey, what do you think about Agile? And they went, I won't paraphrase exactly what they said, but it was along the lines of Agile is a bit rubbish, right? It's an engineering thing. It's what engineering teams do. It doesn't apply to us from a UX perspective. We hate it. And I went, ah, OK, so what do you do? And they said, we do the lean process. Wow, that sounds really good. And I said, can you tell me what the lean process is? And they said, well, we focus on a customer and we look at that customer and we think about what outcomes that customer wants to achieve. And even through a few steps, we look to deliver a minimum viable product to that customer. And I thought, well, that sounds a lot like Agile, right? Or what Agile should be. And there was some sort of disconnect going on here. So I teamed up with one of the senior designers and collaborated with her. And we started to introduce Lean UX. And Lean UX from Jeff Cothell fundamentally, you know, it's a mash-up of Lean UX, Agile, all these sort of good stuff. What Agile should really be? And one of the things that we wanted to focus on is, really, and this sums it up from this great quote here from Melissa Perry, product management is not about building things, right? It's not about building something efficiently. It's about solving problems. How could we make these teams? How could we make people within engineering care about the customer, care about customer problems? So we introduced Lean UX as an experiment across a couple of teams. And that was great. And, you know, what we wanted to do was make sure that the whole team has ownership of this. We focus on creating an outcome. And we do the smallest amount of work possible when we start measuring the change, right? Sounds like really good Agile to me, right? But we didn't kind of use that word. And we started to rock on with this. And we started to go through and think about, you know, again, this comes from Melissa Perry. Well, we started to think about, right, number one thing we want to focus on when we start when we introduced Lean UX is we're going to focus on problem identification, right? What problem or opportunity do we want to solve? And once we've established what we think is a problem, we want to actually make sure that it is a problem, right? We want to validate it's a problem. We want to reduce the uncertainty. Make sure that we're being effective. And then we start validating what solutions we've got. And then we start optimising on that solution. And very early on, well, we started running this dual track approach. You've heard of dual track, dual track development. Kind of a coin term, specifically coins that's been run with Marty Cagan and Jeff Patton. And really it's about two teams, the two teams running in tandem, right? So we've got discovery happening in tandem with delivery. And we've got, you know, UX. We've got product owners. We've got discovery team working closely and hand in hand with the engineering team who's getting this, you know, working efficiently to get this thing out. So we've got discovery, which is a focus on fast learning, validating that it's the right problem, validating that the customer actually wants this thing and we're being effective. And then we've got our delivery teams focusing on predictability, that's a difficult word to say, and quality, making sure we get the right, efficient things out to the customer in a quality way. And we've got some success on this, right? And one of our best successes was when, you know, we had a project manager for the tribe come along and he was like, well, this linear work stuff, how do we know it's going to be successful, right? What are some of the outcomes we need? And he was a bit cagey about it and he thought, well, aren't we just going to spend ages doing naval gazing and making sure that we're actually getting something out there into production. And very early on we got quite a good success. We were basically migrating old PC banking onto new internet banking, right? And we had a few features left. And one of these last features was a very specialised audit logging tool. And the team sized it up and they said, well, we reckon it's roughly going to be 52 weeks' worth of work. 52 weeks, right? And you know what traditionally what we probably would have done is we would have cracked on and built it, right? And we would have built it in 42 weeks maybe and we would have turned around and we would have gone, yay, we've done it, right? We've been agile, we've delivered it efficiently in 42 weeks. We are awesome. And we might have gone for a soft drink or something and a bit of cake and a celebration. But what we did is we started with, you know, some assumptions. And our first assumption was customer wants it. We were going to laugh about that right customer wants it. But what do you think we did? What do you think we did first? We did some discovery, right? We went and talked to some customers and we said, do you want this thing? No, no one wanted it, right? And we looked at the analytics and no one was using it. And so we went back to the state card as we were not building it. And I went, why? And they said, no one uses it, no one wants it. And they went, great. Off you go then. Go and work on something else. And that team spent 52 weeks going on working on something effectively and something that the customers actually valued. So we had a really big success, right? And this success, Snowball, we had a really good success story, which meant that they wanted to roll a linear ax out across all the other teams, right? So from two teams up to about 30. Which is great, right? We thought awesome success. We've done it. Two teams to three tribes. And very quickly success became confusion, right? Confusion because, yeah, we were kind of, you know, the two of us were helping and being this product conscience for these two teams. And now we spread across 30 teams. There was confusion. What is dual track delivery? What is this linear ax stuff? Can you come in? And the two of us, we just couldn't cope with these 30 teams. So one of the things that we found was dual track was becoming dueling tracks, right? All these different egos, one of them was mine, right? There was like the lean thinkers and, you know, there was the agile thinkers and there was a design thinking and UX and UX were turning around and saying, you're stepping on my toes and you're doing this stuff. And it was getting really confusing, right? And we were getting really worried about this. So that's it. So I hope that people would see me on the left, right? I hope people would see me as this wise old sage, you know, telling people about agile and about lean UX and what we should be doing about the customer. One of the reasons I grew a beard is so it could look wise, right? With a bit of white in there. But you know what? People saw me as on the right. You know, I came across as Mr Shouty agile pants, telling them how to do it, what to do it, telling them how to do their jobs and that wasn't my intention, right? And this was causing me a bit of consternation. So I love this quote. You can't read the label. You can't read the label of the jar you're in, right? And I was in this little jar. I can see my head up the top there. I was in this jar and I couldn't really think what was going on, right? I was getting confused. I was in the weeds and I thought, well, I need to step back and think about what I can do to start spreading this knowledge across other teams and start working with people. So how could I become the conscience of the team? Because for me, as a practice coach, as an agile coach, as anyone, I am the conscience of the team, right? I don't want to start questioning their answers. I want to question their thought process and be their conscience. And I thought about this quote as well, right? This chap, David Husman, unfortunately passed away last year. But another quote from him, he talks about, we are often making a mistake of conflating, scaling and spreading, right? We didn't need to scale this stuff. All we need to do is spread the knowledge across other people so we could replicate the good stuff that was happening in these individual teams. One of the things that we found when we first introduced Lean UX was the power of language, right? The power of language really united us. Often what we found is we would end up with focusing on the language of what we do, right? The frameworks like Scrum or this or Camman or whatever, Engineering or UX. And what we found was as soon as we started to focus on the language of why we do things, rather than what we do, it brought us together. So this is some of the language that we found really important, right? Who is the customer? What's the problem or opportunity we're looking to solve because we'd have people come up and saying, we don't always have problems. Sometimes we do have opportunities, fair enough. What assumptions do we have, right? Assumptions is a really powerful word because it can feel the weight coming off a team. It's not a requirement. You've got to do this. It's an assumption. Hey, here's an assumption. What experiment are you going to run to validate or invalidate that thing? What are you going to do to make sure that it's the right thing to do? The other thing we found here was about success, right? Success outcomes. And we talked a lot about failure in our job, right? Hey, we failed, right? And that actually makes me a bit cross on, I get cross. It's my white beard again, right? But I get cross because for me, we've succeeded, right? We've succeeded in invalidating one of our assumptions. That's not a failure. That's a success. Celebrate it. So what we started to do was celebrate these invalidation of these assumptions that we held before, right? We didn't go off in 52 weeks and waste 52 weeks of money. We were going in effective direction and building stuff efficiently as well. So what we wanted here is to make sure we understood why we did the stuff, right? How we do stuff, why we do stuff. So we made sure teams understood why rather than just the what. The other thing that worked really successful when we first brought in Lean UX is that collaboration, right? And as a coach, I collaborated with senior designers, senior UX designers, right? And that really helped. And there's a pattern from Linda Rising and she calls it a change pattern, a collaboration pattern, right? And if you want to introduce some change, what you do is you go and you might say, hey, I've got this great new idea, right? For Lean UX. You like your Lean UX, right? Would you come and help me trial this thing out and see if we can make it work, right? Automatically, you're part of that change, right? Yes. We're part of that change together and we can start that snowballing. So what we wanted to do is to make sure with this success we would collaborate with other specialities across the group, right? Other specialities and they could bring their expertise, right? It wasn't about me going to them and telling them how to do stuff. It was about me making sure that we could collaborate. They could bring their expertise and we could mash it together. So we found across his idea of creating a playbook, right? And I got really... Again, I was getting cross, right? I got really cross about seeing these playbooks which are about 1,000 pages long. Nothing playful about that.  And we wanted to create a playbook that was our playbook that was a high level over you about how we did things, right? How we delivered products, how we did product development. So our playbook test kind of thing in the air was it had to be understood by anyone, right? So anybody who picks it up can understand it. Well, that means lots of pictures, nice and easy to understand. No more than 30 pages. Just sounded about right, 30 pages, you know? Didn't have too much heft. Self-explanatory and it was endorsed by all the skill sets and they contributed to it, right? It wasn't just one person, it was everybody's. And it had to be enjoyable to read. So these are the five lessons that I learnt from creating this product playbook. And number one, if it doesn't fit in your head, don't use it, right? So often we use terms, we use these words, we use these frameworks and we don't understand what they mean, right? So why use it? And I'm as bad as everybody else on that, right? And I had someone come up to me the other day and they said and yeah, we've got a problem in the tribe and I think what we need is I'm going to introduce a new operating model. What's an operating model? I don't know, right? And, you know, often we just take these things as a road and he said, well, expectations. Expectations between the teams and sort of the tribe leadership. OK, why don't we just call it that? Why don't we just call it some expectations mapping between the two? Oh yeah, OK, so we did that, right? And one of the things that I found very early on with this stuff in the head was people found it really hard when the simple two lines to explain what dual track development was, right? Dual track development felt more like dueling tracks, right? It felt more like, oh, we are the discovery line, OK? And we will go away and we will discover and we will hand over discovery to the development team and the development team will go away and they will build and off they go. And it felt very separate, right? It felt more like dueling, fighting between the two. It didn't feel as it should that these two were coming together. And I was getting really confused about this. So what I did, everyone should have a coach, right? I've got a few coaches and I went to one of my coaches and I said, I'm really struggling with this, right? These dueling tracks. This is not quite working in my head. I'm trying to map this stuff out and I'm trying to explain this in a way, but I can't. And he sighed and he looked at me, my coach and he said, I think we need to go and get something to eat. I thought, well, OK, we'll go and get something to eat. There's got to be something here, right? So I went with my coach and we went to get something to eat and we sat down and he took me to his favourite restaurant I paid. And there he is. There's my coach in the top right and my son Owen.    You put food all in there in the middle off to get them in Chinese restaurants. You get food in the middle and you spin it round.  He pushed all the vegetables to the side, to the outside, and he pushed all the meat into the middle, like the pork buns and stuff. And he was spinning it round and I was watching him and pork bun would come round very quickly and he'd take it and the vegetables would take ages to make this sort of loop round because he wanted to avoid those. And he got me thinking, right? He got me thinking that everything we do is an empirical life cycle, right? Everything we do is an empirical feedback loop. Plan, do, check, act, build, measure, learn. What changes is the speed of experiments that go round that empirical feedback loop, right? So we came up with this. It's all one empirical feedback loop, right? It's all, we all measure stuff, we all learn about something, we'll build stuff. What changes is the experiment that we run? And that sometimes those experiments take ages to get round that loop, right? Sometimes they're really quick. If we talk to a customer, that's a really quick experiment, right? And we can probably go to a talk to a customer very quickly and get some food that very quickly. But we built some interview questions. We've learnt from it and we cycle round again. If we build some software, that's a really big, expensive experiment, right? But sometimes it's a thing we need. But it's going to take much longer to get round that feedback loop. So this form, the basis of our playbook, right? This form, the basis of how we approach product development, right? So we start, every team starts with a mission. It starts with a set of metrics. What are we going to do? How are we going to achieve these outcomes? How are we going to measure these outcomes? And then off they go and they start understanding where they are now and they start running these experiments, right? And typically we run one of these four experiments down the bottom left and we'll come to those in a moment and what we call categories of work. But basically this form, the basis of our playbook, really a high level. And then we don't really care if you're doing Scrum, Camman, Mashup of the Two, XP, whatever, right? But this is the high level thing and everyone could get behind this, right? This wasn't, this was agnostic of product management, UX, everyone could get behind this. The second thing I learnt was acknowledge the mindsets, right? Acknowledge and mash up the mindsets. I love this, it's a great book from a chap called Johnny Schneider. Check it out if you get a chance and this is a slide from him. And he talks about mashing this stuff up. There's a reason that I'm called a practices coach at B&Z, not an agile coach. I'm a magpie, right? Nick can choose things from anywhere, from UX, from design thinking, from human senate design, from lean, from agile. Nick can choose whatever works and apply it to the context of the environment. I'm not precious about that. But what is important for us is those high things like getting that value out to that customer in a disciplined way. So this again comes back to that language thing. As soon as we start mashing up those mindsets and I'm not focusing on a framework, I'm not setting up Mr Shaltypants coming out with Sprint and all these language that no one understands. We're focusing on why we do stuff not what we do. I come over who came up with this slide originally. I've tried to search it on the internet to see who came up with the original. I haven't found the original source, so let me know if you've found it. But I love this. Caution, agile has no brain. Please bring your own, right? Common sense, bring your own brain. Agile's just a framework. It doesn't give all those different steps. It gives a high-level framework.  You are the experts. You work out what you need to do. I think we must never forget that. Never forget that. You choose, right?  Drop that ego, drop that sort of practices. Drop that real how you do stuff and focus on the why you do stuff and let people be experts and be their conscience. The third thing was about keep it draft. Keep it draft. This really invites that collaboration and this really invites people to be experts. The key thing I did here was send it out like this with a big old draft on it. Loads of questions, loads of highlighted yellow text like how are we going to do this or how will that work? I send it to the UX researchers, and invited their feedback. That's how it became our playbook and everyone could buy into it. Your note on here, there's no author because everybody's the author on it. It's our playbook and it's an evolving thing as we go through. One of the things that really kicked in for us was about experiments. We talk about minimum viable products and that sort of segmentation between customer and the product itself. One of the things that we built on top of that sort of empirical framework was this idea of experiments and what these experiments meant. Experiments were important for us because again we wanted experts to be experts, we didn't want to water people down and we thought when we run an experiment we want to put some criteria in there, we want to make sure that it's guided by a specialist. Guided to be an expert who can be seen as being the expert but they're involving the wider product team and that wider team feels involved, they feel that they have a chance to get involved with that piece of work, that experiment. The other thing is whatever experiment is it's tracked on the team board, people know what's going on, they can ask questions, they can see the status of it and see the progress. The final thing is it's time box. Time box is really important. If we don't know what the final acceptance criteria of something is let's just bound it by time. At the end of that time we can review whether we want to run another experiment or what. These are the four experiments that we came up with. Fundamentally we thought everything we do falls into one of these four buckets.  Are you going to talk to a customer? Are you going to gather some data? Are you going to prototype something? When I first put these in I had numbers on them. One, two, three, four, because I thought it would look kind of cool. Then one of the senior product managers came over and he said, can we take the numbers out? I went, yep, sure, why? He said, because we don't have to do them in that order, right? I said, no, of course not.  I said, of course you could. So we took the numbers out. Then he said, put it in production. Could we maybe change that subheading on there to make a change? Because we don't always put software into production, right? Sometimes we just make a business process change. Yeah, of course we do, right? So we changed it. Again, we got that feedback. But fundamentally this really helped us because I remember working with a team and they were working on something called self-service, right? I spoke to them and I said, self-service sounds great. What are you doing? We're vying up what experiments to run next. I said, that's great. What are you doing? And they said, well, we don't know whether it's this opportunity or this opportunity. And I said to them, well, what are your metrics? And they looked at their metrics and they said, well, we want to reduce calls to help desk, right? So I said, that's great. What help desk? We've got three and they said, well, they said, a small business hub. I said, great. So what's your first experiment going to be? And they said, well, how many calls do we get to help desk each day? I said, great. How many calls do you get to help desk each day? And they said, well, we don't know what you're going to find out. Well, let's go and talk to the customer. Off they went and off they went to talk to that help desk, right? So, again, it's me acting as their conscience and putting that lean discipline in place. So when we looked at how we run these different experiments, we looked at it like this, right? We thought, you know what? If you're going to go and talk to a customer, you probably want to get some UX researchers involved, right? A customer researcher or a UX researcher. Go and talk to those people. They're the experts and get them to lead it for you, right? Or maybe it's a team design or someone. The second one would be gather some data. And we'd say, well, gather some data. You know what? If you want to gather some data, you might want to go and talk to the data analytics team, right? Or maybe you want to come up with some new data techniques and find out what's happening and put that into production. So maybe you could do that as a development team. Prototype something. Hey, you know what? Is that a paper prototype? Do you need to go and talk to a designer? Do you need to run a design sprint? Or are you thinking a technical prototype? Do you need to run a spike? Do you need to get the team to do that themselves? And the final one, put it into production, right? This is the only one thing that delivers value, and this requires a bit more overhead and a bit more quality, et cetera. But you probably want to involve risk and security. Just to let them know, because we're a bank and we have to think about risk and security. But again, it's about getting the team to think about what they need to do at a high level within these containers. Now, when we kick this off, right, very early on, the team are pretty frightened, right? And when we first put linearX in, we kind of just said to them, hey, off you go then. Go and talk to the customer. And you could see the fear in some of their eyes, right? It was like, what? You want me to go and talk to the customer? And some of them are really frightened, right? And I think the thing that we found was, we give people the opportunity to talk to the customer. But we get them to care about the customer, care about the problem. Some developers just don't want to talk to customers, right? But we give them the opportunity to do that, and we give information about what the customer is thinking. And others absolutely love it, right?  You know, taking notes in a session or viewing a session or something like that. But we give them the opportunity so they can care. And it's this thing here, right, for Steve Jobs. Basically saying that you want to care about your job, right? You know, we spend so much of our time at work. You've got to be happy. We're going to make sure people are happy at their work. They're doing what they need to do, but also that they care about the customer and what they need to do. They understand the why questions. The fourth thing was about saying no, right?  And no for a product manager is one of the most important words we have, right? And it was easy for me to say, you know, I was getting these requests left, right and center for how can we just put this in the playbook and this framework here and, you know, that and the other. And if we said yes to all that stuff, we would end up with this huge monolith, right, this huge document, 1,000 pages. So we kept it very distinct, very distinct, very focused on the product development stuff that we were doing, and we cut a lot of stuff out. This stuff from Dez Trainer, right? You've got to make sure that you end up with some crazy Swiss army knife that doesn't really meet any of your needs, right? If you want to just focus on your core product and what you need. I like this one from Dez Trainer as well. Features are like house pets. And this has trade me a big kind of trading website in New Zealand. And I went in there with my little girl and we searched for free pets. Loads of stuff comes up, right, for free pets. But the problem is not getting hold of the free pet. The problem is not developing a feature. The problem is the longevity of that feature, right? It's maintaining that feature. It's feeding it. It's supporting it. It's the technical debt that comes with it, right? And the same thing with our product playbook. And the fifth and final thing was question the thinking, not the answer, right? So again, it's about me being that product conscience for the team and the product playbook being there that allows people to ask powerful questions. I don't question the answer and why people came up with stuff. We put a couple of templates in the playbook that helped us as well. One of them was based on Jeff Patton's opportunity canvas. We started off using a lean canvas which kind of worked for us but there was boxes that we didn't really use. So we got opportunity envy and we came up and we started using Jeff Patton's opportunity canvas. And then we've adapted it since to this opportunity canvas here. And that's great, right? Because typically what we found, I'm sure you've never found it, right, is you'll get someone coming along to you and going, right, I've got this solution idea, go away and size it up and tell me how much it's going to cost. Has that happened to anybody? A few people, yeah. And we found that, right? We found that with some of our teams that they felt like they were just a what to do tapping into their brains and their expertise. So we used this opportunity canvas when we kick off a piece of work. And typically what happens is if someone comes to us with a solution idea we're like, wow, that's great. Great, you've got that solution idea. Right, okay. Can we just zip back up and we do this in a workshop, right, and we put this on the wall. What's the problem we're looking to address or opportunity? I've got to keep saying opportunity because we don't just have problems. We've got to be able to address and we go through this and assumptions start to come out. This is a living document, right? So we don't get it all at once. And then we come around to this thing called budget, right? And budget's really interesting because what we try and do is change the conversation. Rather than being how much is this thing I want, going to be, we turn around and say, right, just so we know when we start coming up with our solution ideas, how much is that problem we're solving? How much is that opportunity worth realising? Is it a $10,000 problem? Is it a $100,000 problem? A $10 million? And depending on how much that problem is worth solving, depending on how much that opportunity is worth realising, then we can cut our cloth accordingly, right? Then we can start finding out and then we can start running our experiments to make sure that we're doing the right thing within the constraints of the budgets that we're given. But we get that whole team inclusion. The other thing we do as well is all about discipline steps. Does anyone remember this game? Mastermind? Yeah, a couple. I remember it as a kid growing up, my parents had a battered version in the games cupboard, right? And what you basically did with Mastermind is you'd have two plays, right? One play at the end would put six different of these coloured pins in and then the idea of the other person had to put these pins in at the other end and they had to try and guess what you'd got here, right? And they'd do it progressively through these discipline steps and you would tell them whether they've got a colour right but in the wrong place or you've got a colour right and it's in the right place. Now, often when we approach product development, right? We just randomly chuck stuff out there and we hope that it's right. But the thing what we want to do with product development is have these discipline steps and these discipline steps should be all about right. Put something out there, right? Run an experiment. Is this looking all right? Do we think we're making progress towards what the customer wants and what the customer needs? And what we've tried to do is introduce this through a carter type approach what we call a carter or a disciplined approach. And again, this comes back to us being lean and taking, mashing up all this stuff. We've taken lean and we've introduced some product discipline steps in this carter and we call this a product experiment map, right? And again, coming back to that experiment that team ran with talking to that small business hub customer help desk. So their first experiment was, you know, they would go away and talk to that small business hub and their experiment was they get 300 calls a day, right? Bang, right, we've learnt we get 300 calls a day. What's our next experiment? Well, our next experiment should be what's the number one call, right? What are the top calls? We have all sort of gather some data around that. So they went off and they go and gather some data and they find out that the number one call is change of address. Change of address, right? So the next experiment would be if we were to put change of address online would that reduce calls and is that something the customer wants? Right, bang, off we go and run that experiment. So again, this puts that discipline into the process that we have but it doesn't let us question the answers. It questions the thought process, right? So what's your next experiment? So how do you know who have you talked to? So again, it gives that discipline. And it allows us as coaches, it allows the tribal leadership team, it allows product managers from other areas to ask these powerful questions. What assumptions have you made, right? Who's going to lead the experiment and what's your next experiment going to be? How do you know you're being successful? What's your measures of success and who's your customer? So this is a question which focus on why we do stuff and not what we do. And this allows us to govern the outcomes rather than just the outputs. This one as well, I love this Hitchens razor. Again we talk about assumptions rather than just taking requirements as wrote. What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. And again that assumption is that a powerful word. And we validate or invalidate that through that discipline and through these small steps. So where are we now, right? So our product development playbook it's become a field guide to running product experiments and delivering value to B&Z customers and users. It's still small, it comes in at something like 27 pages I think. And you know, look, people are using it. They're using it across the bank. It's started out as a digital thing. It's spread across the bank as a whole. We've got product managers, financial product managers are using it in lending and other areas as well. It isn't sort of focused on one sort of area in the frameworks and technology and this stuff. And here's someone here. It brings together all the best parts and practices and it's easy to understand Ray providing a framework that our team has adopted and then adapted. So again it's high enough level but it gives them the discipline that then they can start to think about how they apply it. And this is the team that's not my effort it's everyone's effort. It's all these people. We continue to evolve as we go through and it has become the banks as well. 10 minutes. That's me. Thank you very much.


In today's video, we're going back in time and opening vintage Yu-Gi-Oh Packs. What's up guys? We're back with another vintage opening. Before we hop into it, I have a quick giveaway, which is a pretty big one today. So before we start the vintage opening, we have a Red Eyes Dark Dragoon PSA9. I attempted to give this away like a year ago, went unclaimed. It was around 150K. I think we tried to give it away. Nobody claimed it. So guess what? You guys get another chance. Just like the video, be subscribed to our notifications. Let me know down below what's your favorite card we pull in this video and what will we pull? It's being a giveaways. If you win and you don't want to miss it, make sure you go check out the YouTube community tab. I usually don't give stuff away until like a year later. So you've got a really long time to claim it. But don't use that as a reason to procrastinate. Go look and see if you want. I've been announcing them weekly for the past month or so. So see if you've won anything recently and send me an email. OK, let's get right to the opening. We have a lot of awesome stuff. I'm going to start off with an Extreme Victory, which is the newest of the sets we're opening today.  It was like 60 packs and we are, I think maybe, we still have a few left out. Maybe still probably 20 left after this or something like that. But there are some good cards in here. I've never pulled the go-ster out of here. So that's really the goal here out of these. Not an expensive go-ster, but I need to pull every go-ster. It's part of my goals. Got to make sure we're recording correctly, not in slow-mo.  OK, total we have 36 vintage packs here today. I figured, you know, it's the weekend. Could be a fun weekend vintage opening. I know you guys like this stuff. So hopefully we can get some ultimate rears. Last time I opened some of these packs, we got a bunch of oldies. That card looks really, really bad. That's a big ol' ding on the corner. That's OK, just a common. Let's see if we can get something common. So I'll speak in the comments. And let's write fake hero, Black Stego, D-Spirit, Flying Saucer, Baby Sarasaurus. We have the Crystals Dolphin and the Spell Calling. So we are 0 for 2 to start. But we got plenty of time left. We got 34 packs, like Rucks and 34. OK, let's try a pharaoh servant. And also, while we are doing this, I want to remind you guys, you probably have seen it in other videos, but I have listed a bunch of stuff on my website recently, a bunch of PSA cards, some of it's consignment, some of it's not. I have some sealed stuff I've put up there, some booster boxes. Go check it out. If you guys want to grab something on rucksand34.com, go check it out. There's a bunch of new stuff that I've added. Do you see where we got Keystone? That little finger. So if you do want to do that. Oh, Rucks and 34. Oni Tank, Rucks and 34. And Overdrive. Overdrive's just like regular Oni Tank. And then it becomes Oni Tank, Rucks and 34. That's me. OK, we have Overdrive, major riot. Wingweaver, uh-oh. We got some coming up. I think we got a foil. Backup soldier. There we go. Not bad. We've had bad luck with these Pharaoh's servants. If you guys remember last time, I think it was in the old versus new opening. I can't remember exactly. Go check that video out, by the way, if you missed it. I think we went 0 for 10 on Pharaoh's servants. So it was pretty rough. So hopefully that means we're due. Let's go try Ancient Sanctuary. I'm not going to bother trying to save them or anything. It's Ancient Sanctuary, you know. It's probably the least exciting set here, even though it is from 2004. Let's see what we could pull. One, two, three, four. We have a Ninjutsu Art of Transformation, Arcane Archer of the Forest, Rucks and Special, Dust Barrier, Sonic Jammer, another Rucks and Special, three on Placuda, Earthquake, Piranha Army. You just got it. My Poker Rucks fan, you just got to beat the Mudkip Kid to get that. Just beat the Mudkip Kid, Human Wave Tactics and the Special Hurricane. If you're not a Poker Rucks fan, you're probably really confused by that. But speaking of Poker Rucks, that's my Pokemon channel where we do Pokemon challenges. Our latest video just crossed 10,000 as I'm recording this, which is our third highest viewed video on the channel, which is pretty exciting. So it's doing pretty awesome, we're over 6,000 subs. So if you are not following and you like Pokemon challenge content, go give it a subscribe. If you do not like Pokemon challenge content and you don't think you're interested, don't bother, just don't do it. Because, you know, subscribing to a channel and not watching the videos actually is bad for the channel. So I'll then want you guys to help over there if you guys like the content. Pyramid Turtle, same here. Like if you're watching this video right now and you're like, I'm gonna watch this guy, don't subscribe. Only subscribe if you think you're gonna watch it. That is a big help to me if you guys do that. So I appreciate all you guys who are subscribed and have been subscribed for a long time and you've watched the videos. That's pretty amazing. Red Carpet. Yeah, it's weird because like if you subscribe and then you don't watch it, it like stops pushing it out to as many subscribers because it's like these subscribers don't even watch this guy. It is better actually to watch and not be subscribed than to be subscribed and not watched. So I mean, it makes sense when you think about it. It's like, yeah, well you want them to watch it. But there's been like, I feel like for a long time people thought that subscribers is more important than actual people watching you. So just so you guys know that it's not actually, we have dark bat, insect imitation, attack and receipt. There's not really like any, like nothing's going wrong, like other than my channel or anything like that. It's just something that I figured I'd mention. Mitchezuri. And especially with like our Yu-Gi-Oh channel, it's more of like a lot of time. I mean, we have 200, whatever, 1000 subscribers. We never get that many views. Like we'd have to do something crazy. It's not like every single subscriber watches every time on this channel, cause we post a lot of videos. So it's like, they're not going to watch 365 videos a year.  So on the Poker Rocks channel, it's a little bit easier because we post like one video every two months. So it's like, yeah, if you watch every video I post, you watch six videos in the entire year. You know, it's like not that many. So yeah, not really relevant. Just chatting. I'm just chatting. Cause I'm just, I'm biding time. I'm filibustering. And so we pull a foil here because so far we've only got, we got, we got two or one. No, we got only 10 crucks of 34 and then we got a foil. Okay. We have crop circles, fake hero, alien hunter, brainwashing beam. But sometimes it's fun to do a little chat, you know, chat about random stuff with alien gray. Some of you guys are like, why did you even talk about that? I don't care. Future fusion. I want that oldie. I mean, I have one, but I want one to be pulled by me. Okay. Extreme victory first. And here we go. Let's do this. See what we can do. It's been a weird month. No new releases. I mean, technically we had the Kyber briefcase and technically we're going to have speed duel next week for, we're going to do one video on that or something. But in terms of like big, like normal box releases and stuff, nothing, which is like, as I've said, not a bad thing to have like a month off, a little relaxation from the sets. You kind of grab the stuff you want, not too much product flooding the market. You know, it's not a bad thing. It's you, you know, let it breathe a bit. It's been weird though. It's been weird. This month I've just been like, okay, what am I going to do? Nothing new to post. I actually got to think of ideas. You know, I got, I got a fine product for this stuff. One, two, three, four. And overall, I think it's been a good thing. We have invitation to dark sleep, Mystic probe, but April picks up again. We start getting more stuff. DC worry, Grouchy, Kua Gata, Soul of the Forgotten. We have gust, insect barrier and mirror wall, another trap. So we, two foils out of Pharaoh's Sermon. We're making a comeback here. That's a beautiful card. Hey guys, you guys know where I know this one from. Master Duel, no, I got you. I got you. See, you thought I was going to say dueling. No, I'm just kidding. Okay, extreme victory. Look, tour guide. Like, come on. Let us pull a tour guide. Like it's not even that crazy expensive. Let us pull a tour guide. That'd be a cool one to grade. Runaway card curry. I think when I graded mine, then I pull, I did grade a 10 actually. When I pulled it back in 2018 or 19, graded a PSA 10, I sold it unfortunately for super cheap. And then it went way up because of course, you know, COVID and everything. Dodger drag. Oh, that is a foil. Wait, okay. We got to do the weird pack trick on there. Dodger dragon. Really interesting artwork. I actually like it. I think it's pretty cool looking. So we've got our Los Angeles baseball dragon. Very cool. Let's see. Let's just open our one Los Millennium. I think we've probably pulled all the oldies cause the other day we pulled three oldies out of a, in like one opening. No, that was in the 50 pack opening. I might've got over 10. Was it? We did a 50 pack old school opening. That was fun too. One, two, three, four. I think it's fine on Los Millennium. We have Medusa worm. We pulled three oldies. So not feeling like we'll pull one, but hey, maybe there's another one. New cannons. They are random packs, percent of tricks. Very nice. I got to grade some of those. One's a little too off center. Ancient gear soldier. And, oh no way, another ultimate. These packs were loaded. We might've pulled like five oldies. It was like at least four cause we pulled three in that one video. I don't remember if we pulled one in the other video. We opened some. That's a sweet one. First dead. I might be grading that. Centering is not perfect, but it looks pretty good. Let's see. Building up more PSA subs. That looks decent. We're definitely going to send that in. All right. First dead oldies. Doesn't matter if it's a retail one or not. We're going to send that sucker in. Hero signal is probably, I would guess a $20, $30 card. Just, I mean, Lost Millennium is not super rare in retail, but I mean, it's a hero card. It's an ulti. I mean, it's got the bat signal for heroes. Okay. That's sick. That's a super good pull. Let's just get the Ancient Sanctuary out of the way. Let's, look, let's pull an econ real quick. That's the one card I really want. Well, I mean burst streaming. I guess I want burst streaming. I want a dark magic attack. Those are good too. Seeker rare as I wouldn't be mad about either, but really econ. I've never actually pulled one. No, I've pulled one. I've pulled one, maybe. Delta attack or a Fiend's Scorpion. What's it for me though? Larva the Nightmare, regenerating mummy, the lot of the normal metal armored bugs, solar ray, warrior of Zara, and double Costin. Okay. Vero servant. Let's keep it going. Can we get another foil? We've already gotten two so far. Invented dismissal. I would like more stuff to grade. So if it's like an unlimited Buster Blader original, I would definitely grade that. If it's centered, we have seven completed, javelin. It's not first add or anything, but I mean a PSA 10 Buster Blader unlimited, OG is probably pretty sick, Light of Intervention and Mitch's Zuri. That's the second time we've pulled that today in like the 50th time out of those packs. Extreme victory is the one I really have high hopes for. Like, come on, Ghostrare, Torg, I mean, not the Torguides is not the Ghostshare, but the Ghostshare or the Secret Rare Torguide or the Mystic Piper or whatever's expensive now. Serene Psychic Witch, come on, reboot. Force Resonator, Red Dragon Vace, Lance of Linnworm. Sheans, I keep forgetting to do the pack trick, right? Sheans advisor, these are also really easy to miss. They're very subtle foils, very cool. Okay, Power of the Duelists. We are kind of balling out right now. One, two, three, four. We have Sabrosaurus, Black Stego, Defender, Blade Master, Amulets, Alien Grid. We have the Accord Connection Zone, Fossil Excavation, and a Chimeratech, Over Dragon. Just the Ultra, not an Ulti or anything, but this is a card that we could not pull for the longest time. So first dead, how's the back look? Okay, maybe a little tiny bit of scuffing. We're definitely gonna grade that though. That has a shot of the 10 sintering. Looks pretty nice. It's not perfect, but it's definitely good enough. Definitely good enough. Man, we are just, wait, look. I like doing these old school openings. You can get some cards to grade. You know, gotta build up that graded pile. And that's a cool one, unlimited.  I'm guessing the raw value of that card is not super high, but that's okay. We don't care about the raw value right now. We're grading it, okay? Let's see what the extreme victory can pull. This is not wanting to open. There we go. That opened pretty good when you got that. Okay, one, two, three. Let's do this. Okay, so this is where it's gonna be. Oh no, this is where it's gonna be, like that. Okay, it's gonna be a go-stress. We gotta be careful. We have TDX 300, Mech Time Blast. Kara Kurikamachi, Mech Lord Army of Wazel. A Resolute Mech Lord at Desk. No, I'm just kidding. That is not the desk.  Lancer Dragonuit, another super. That's like three in a row, I feel like. So far, this has been a really good opening. We're like actually pulling stuff. We got an Ultra from Power of the Duelist. Wait, what was the other bit? Oh yeah, Ulti out of Lost Millennium. We got a couple supers out of Pharoah Server, which, you know, compared to Over 10 is really good. Man, I mean, we've done good. Extreme victory. You need to step it up a little bit. You got all supers, but we want something better than that. We have Saversaurus, Baby Sarasaurus, Contact. Crazy how old Baby Sarasaurus is. And it's like really good still in Dinos. Dolphin, we have Amos Rescueroid. And Super Charge. No, do not give us that as an Ulti, or I'm gonna be angry. Let's try Pharaonic Guardian. Haven't really opened any of these today. I think we've opened like one, maybe. Did we? Did we even open one? I can't remember. All right, weekend vintage opening. Hopefully you guys are having fun. And I'll have luck. A man with a witch hat, cabezoles, card shuffle, needle wall, reasoning, Masha Kianchi, Soul Eater Living Wonder Mystery, and Book of Moon. I mean, that is a really good rare. I mean, the original print of Book of Moon. You know what I noticed recently when I was doing the top 25 best pulls on our channel? By the way, go watch that if you haven't seen it yet. We put in some amazing pulls from the history of the last five, six years of the channel. But I noticed on the blue-eyed Shining Dragon pull, I pull a Book of Moon in RetroPak 2, and I call it the most expensive Book of Moon print. And I don't know if I was thinking because we were opening Champion Pack 1 as well. I don't know. There's a reason I said, maybe I was referencing Champion. I don't know, but it sounded like I was referencing RetroPak 2 as the most expensive, and it's like a common. And I'm like, or maybe I was trying to say it was the most expensive common because obviously Book of Moon from Champion Pack 1 is the most expensive. It's super expensive. I didn't do the big pack trick. I messed it up. Okay, messed it up on that. But yeah, it was a weird. I was like, what am I saying here? Is that, that's not true. So I don't know, but yeah, it was weird. But I noticed that going back on the old clip, I was like, oh, that doesn't make sense, Roxanne. Okay, one, two, three, four. Can we get another big poll? We have Earthshaker. We've got Mr. Volcano, that fiery finger. Can we get a big Ultra? We have not got an Ultra or a secret yet. Science Soldier out of this, out of Pharoah Servant. Cyber Falcon. What, okay. I can probably relate to what I did. Sometimes I lose my train of thought or I say something and I see a card and I stop talking and when you cut it off at that point, it doesn't really make sense because I didn't finish the sentence. That could have been what happened. Dark Fire Soldier number one and Force Requisition. So many traps in Pharoah Servant. Let's do another power of the duelist. If we can get, we've got an Ulti. We've got an Ultra. We've got some Super. We've done good. If we can get a secret, it'd be great but this doesn't have secrets. So let's just get another Ulti. That would make up for it. Alien Skull Rouse, the Starbird. Amon's Road, we have Excavation, the Connection Zone. Fear Monger, Rescue Roid and Neo Space. That would be a sweet Ulti as well. A lot of Pharoah Servant left. I'm just, come on, give us a Buster Blade or give us a Thousand Eyes. Either one of those would be huge because I think we did pull an Imperial Order out of here so it's likely all of these are the retail packs and no Genzo, unfortunately. Genzo would be exciting but not possible out of these, I don't think. Inside Barrier, we have Spike Pots. He's got the Giant Spikes for Arms of Grotto number two. Mr. Volcano Fiery Finger. We have Gradius and we have Morphing Jar number two. It's a Morphing Jar, but just number two. Extreme Victory. We need some Extreme Pulse here. Extreme Victory, you can pull a secret though.  Let's see three from the back. Okay, so I think this is it. The last time it didn't work so maybe I messed it up. We have Morphing Stabilin, come on tour guide, come on Ghost Rare. Run away, Catapult Dragon, War Wolf, Red Dragon Vase, Nebula Meteorite out of the blue, Resonator Call, and an Ultimate Rare, Mara of the Nordic, Alphar. So okay, not a huge ulti. I don't really know if there are huge ultis in this set because tour guide didn't get one for some reason. That'd be really cool. I mean, it does have an ulti later, but not in this set. Okay, and I do own one. Someone actually gifted me one, which is pretty amazing. So I still have that in my binder. That was in that also. I think that was in that awesome collection. Somebody gave me a collection, which was insane. I think I have a video we should be able to find. So you have not seen that. They gifted a pretty amazing collection with some big cards in it. So I kept some of those big ones from my personal collection. All right, Dark Fire Soldier. You got Bite Shoes. Yeah, they all see my Tigray. Ground Collapse with a giant damage corner. Dark Fire Soldier number one. I have Truth Metal Detector, Flying Kamekuri, and way off center, another Mitchezuri. This is insane. That's three Mitchezuri out of seven packs so far. Which if you think about it, I mean, getting that many of the same rare, like there's a lot of rares in the set and you only get one rare per pack. So getting that same rare over and over and over is crazy actually. Power of the dualist. So far, we've gotten a Chimeritek. We got, have we even gotten a super or an ulti? I don't think we have. We've just gotten an ultra. It's been a little weird. Mausoleum, Decoiroid, Bite Lawn. They get a lot of supers in that other opening. So maybe that's where those went. Nios, good pull. Pull that out. We have what a garage. And we have all the ultimate rare overload fusion. I've been asking for this in every other video. We've been opening power of the dualist and we got it overload fusion ulti. So not future fusion, but overload fusion for all you cyber dragon fans out there. That is so cool. Ultimate rare overload. I think we did this as a question for Sean on guess that price the last episode, RIP. And I think it was around like 50 bucks. So it's a pretty decent ultimate rare card. How does it look on the back? It is the big ulti stand. There is some scuffing. I don't know. I might try this at PSA just to see what happens. I mean, this would be a pretty cool PSA 10. Though it is sort of a playable card, but it's also really old at this point. So definitely nice to grade. Centering looks good. So I think it's like a nine at worst. All right. That's two ultis. That's not bad. Yeah. Okay. We're doing pretty good so far. Two ultis and ultra, which you know, one in 24 for those ultra. So that's a pretty tough pull. We've got some supers throughout. Oh man, overload. That's amazing. Invitation to dark sleep, mystic pro. We have Solomon's law book, deep sea warrior, regulation of the tribe, skull mariner, cold wave, gamble, and monster recovery. Okay. Sure. Whatever. Okay. Let's do for on a guardian here. Let's see what we can get $4.49. Not anymore. Obviously. Oh my gosh. Hiccup. Whoa. Being attacked by the hiccups. There's some amazing commons in here. So let's see if we can get some bottomless shifting sand. I want Donzeluga as our ultra rare. Cabezol's card shuffle, rucks and special. We have Needlewall cat of ill omen. Reasoning. Come on, baby. Master Kianchi and a question. All right. An ultra rare question. This is a really good opening. We're getting some old pulls, questioning not going to be an amazingly expensive card or anything.  Back's pretty clean for Ferranic Guardian actually. That is, let's see about that centering again.  We are pulling some good stuff today. Let's try extreme victory again. Extreme victory. You could really like turn this from a really, really awesome. Oh, it's pretty amazing already, but you could make this like insane by pulling a ghost or a tour guide. We have Scarlet security. We got Jar Turtle with the jar of greed on his back out of the blue elder of the six samurai, which becomes a super rare in these. What is that called? The Samurai's assault special editions. We have six out, which we opened that recently in our three year anniversary video. Go check that out. Big pull in there. Big pull. You might have missed it. We have Tigerious catapult turtle dragon. Not turtle. As for girl. And I should psychic cleric. All right. So I had hopes to tour guide had hopes of ghosts. Not this time. Parallel the duals.  I mean, to be honest, out of 10 packs, pretty good. Can't complain. We have Destiny Mirage. Let's just see if we can add a little cherry on top. Little gravy to the biscuit. Let's go excavation. We have connection zone, fear monger and the chain, the chain of D. Five packs left. Pharaoh's servant. Pharaoh's servant, you're kind of wanting that's been slacking off. Everybody else has kind of been contributing. You haven't done much. We got a bunch of damage cards in here. We have dark bat, insect imitation, tackle receive, world suppression. Come on, baby. Give us that big thousand eyes or straight buster blader of flying chemo curry. Three out of Guido. Morphing jar number two. The same rare is over and over. I don't know what to do about that. Okay. Extreme victory. First edition. Last chance to tour guide up for this video. I had to do a few more packs. Last chance at Gosher for this video. Here we go. We have out of the blue and last chance at another secret besides. No, I guess Pharaoh's servant for running gardening do. Okay. Power up adapter. Look, it's a little, a plug for your iPhone. Like, have you guys seen that commercial on YouTube TV where the plug is singing about missing me? Yeah. It's weird. We have trade tone and elemental hero, Neo's Knight. This would have been an amazing ultimate. This is probably the best or at least my favorite ultimate in the set. It is an ultra though. We'll take it. Neo's Knight, elemental hero card. You got to love that. Dude, the pulse today have been great. Back to front of guardian.  Why this feel weird? I don't know. It feels thin for some reason. Okay. Let's see if we can go to and row. Can we get metamorphosis? Can we get trap dust shoot in this pack? Cry you well. Buster rancher. We got boys and mummy. Grapekeeper's curse banner of garage. Curse of aging. Yomiship and wandering mummy. That's fine. We got a big pull. Nothing to worry about. Okay. I'm going to say Pharaoh's servant for last so that I can get some nice last pack magic to make up for their two for nine performance. Over all these Pharaoh's servant, the guy did tell me after I bought them that he had pulled Buster Blader out of him. So I was like, well, that would have been nice to know ahead of time because, you know, you've already pulled one of the ultras. So that's okay though. But that could be one of the reasons we're not pulling ultras. One had been pulled, but there was like 40 something pack. I still have more. We should be getting more. I think we got an imperial order. I don't know if we pulled another ultra, maybe like one. We're over at a taxation with alien skull, Ralsus starbird, amulets, Rhoade, Ruxus special, Fearmonger, Pasadestine. We have open of bombardment, one or garish. Okay. Aquedolph and another super. Well, it's our first super up today, but we had put a lot of them. So that's three foils out of power. The duelist is three out of 10. It's really not bad. Okay. Last pack Pharaoh's servant have not had a lot of ultras throughout these. Maybe this is the one we're going to pull. I think we pulled one imperial order as well. So not really too bad on those cause it's a secret. Let's see what the last pack magic could give us. If you guys enjoyed the video, don't forget to subscribe to the channel. I said that really fast because guess what? This has been a great video. Give it a miss. We have a world suppression, burning land. Come on guys. Weekend vintage this week. Hopefully you guys have enjoyed it.  Will it be a thousand eyes? No, when it is a foil parasite, parasite eight three for 10, three supers old school pack. What do you expect? I mean not terrible. That guy at the back is pretty, pretty scuffed up. So not a PSA candidate on that one, but it's a classic weevil underwear card.

Now on defense counsels to the two journalists of National Pilot Newspapers, Mohammed Malay and Howard Nishola, while Miami has asked a revenue court sit-in in lowering the choir estate capital to dismiss the case of direct criminal complaints levied against them and them in the outfit. They are asking the court to strike out the case for lack of local standing by the complaint daring. The duo of managing director of National Pilot Newspapers billied at the Damola and reporter Ahmed Adilkomi where arraigned before the revenue court in February 2024 following a direct criminal complaint levied against them by the senior special assistant to the choir estate governor on New Media or Leninga Farfuly in his direct complaint to the court, alleging offences of criminal conspiracy, inciting public disturbance, injurious falsehood, criminal defamation and cyber-stalking. The resume hearing of the case today, counsels to the first and second respondents, Mohammed Adilay and alongside the Miami were arguing on a notice of criminal objection filed before the court dated 15 January 2024 as a pre-de-court to refuse hearing the direct criminal complaint for being civil in nature by its contents and filed without due process. The case filed by the complainant is filed in his personal capacity. So the challenge we are giving that particular case is that the complainant does not have the local standing that he does not have the legal capacity to bring this case to the court because the alleged injury that is seen is so far by somebody else does not affect him. So and again there is particular section that he brought that is the cyber crime offense. This particular court is too small that it does have jurisdiction to entertain that particular case. We also raise the issue of a cyber crime prevention and prohibition act that this court does not have jurisdiction to entertain that case. When you look at section 51, so of cyber crime prohibition and prevention ETC act, you will discover that it is the federal court that has jurisdiction over cyber crime. Any offenses related to cyber crime. The petitioner had referred to one of the papers online publications of May 15th and October 16, 2023 as injurious to the governor of Kaira state Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq and his family. The presiding George chief magistrate Shadid Lawal also after listening to the submission of councils in the matter joined the matter to April the 15th 2024 for reading on whether the court had jurisdiction to entertain the matter or not.


I've been going to jail all my life. It started off at the state prisons. And we could go there like every weekend. So, but then other than that, just growing up as a kid without a father in the house, you know, I didn't tell, when they talked about your father at school, I didn't talk about mines. And, you know, I just kind of kept that to myself again. But how did that make you feel? As a child, if you can remember.  I didn't, it was like, it was something I didn't want to bring up. Yeah, we on boss talk, one on one, one on one. Yeah, we going to talk. We want to take it back to when you were growing up, young Larry Hoover. Junior. Junior. Tell us what it was like growing up, growing up without a father. Or should I say? Without a father in the home. In the home. And how much did he still play role in your family, although he was locked up? Well, I'm going to say he played a, he still played a big role in my life because between my mother and my grandmother, I was always able to go see my father. See, it's a lot of kids that end up in situations like I was in, where if the relationship with the mother is not good and she don't deal with the father and the father's own. If she doesn't deal with the, if it's a bad relationship between the father and the father's family, then that puts a strain on the relationship. But I didn't have that problem. My mother would take me to see my father. But you can only go visit him once a month? No, no, he was in state. Okay, at that time. So I've been going to jail all my life. It started off at the state prisons. And we could go there like every weekend. So, but then other than that, just growing up as a kid without a father in the house, you know, I didn't tell, when they talked about your father at school, I didn't talk about mines. And, you know, I just kind of kept that to myself again. And how did that make you feel as a child, if you can remember?  I didn't, it was like it was something I didn't want to bring up. You know, by the time I realized, I think I got my times mixed up, but by the time that I realized he was in jail, actually, I know I wasn't telling people that my father was in jail. They just, I had nothing to say about father's.  He was at the zoo for a while. He was at school for a while. So pretty soon it was like, he in jail. He in jail. What about you? Did you play sports or anything coming up? Yeah, I played. Was you any good though? See, that's the part right there. Okay, you know what? Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah, give it up. Give it up. I played baseball. You thought you was white? Yeah, that was little. Yeah. No, hey, hey, I wish I was white. Hey, that's what my son played. Hey, that's what the money at, man. It is what the money at. And Carl Crawford was over there too. He been over here. I gave him a tough time, but yeah. Then after that, I played basketball. That's one of the times where I wished my father was there to give me the courage to just go out there and, you know, not letting nobody talk me out of my game. It's easy to say that, but my dad was there and he ain't talking out of no game. You know what I'm saying? No, I'm talking about keep the other people from talking me out of the game. But what I'm telling you, he never came to the game. And he wasn't locked up. I'm talking about my dad was a not locked up. He didn't give me nothing out of here. You know what I'm saying? But from the understanding that we have and it could be from the separation. There you go. I think my father- He probably would have came. He might have came to the game. Well, maybe my daddy needed to be locked up. And then he probably would have came to the game. Yeah, because it do make you think different when you go through stuff versus people who never have had to go through that. It make you think deeper about things that you, it really make you understand the things that you really should be loving on. You understand what I'm saying? Yeah. Versus you just out here doing whatever, taking life for granted. See, he has to go through these situations through, he has to live them throughout. That's right. Just telling them about them or what have you. So at least from where he's at, he says that he, you know, he wish he could have been there. Definitely, definitely. Yeah, we on boss talk one on one. One on one. Yeah, we gonna talk.


Hi boys, we're back in some brutal conditions. Broke ice all the way out here, dog is a stand, I feel bad for him honestly right now. We probably got a witty thing tall, so 15-20 right now, out of the west, northwest, like more out of the west. Really, the kitchens are perfect for it, it's kind of in our face, it wasn't blown over our left shoulder when we got here and it seems like it's kind of switching. We got some mojos, pulsators, and like a dozen nods, we don't have a lot right now because as you can see the ice is pretty gnarly out here. Me, Talon, Thomas, we got Rocky, and Caleb behind the camera, we're going to get him some shots too. Pentals and some mallards are already working so we're just trying to hurry and get set up, we've only got a couple hours left. So let's go. He's like name and stuff I can do what you got to do, I mean, the thing is that when completely switched, even worse worse, so it's too late to move. So we just got to make the best of it, I don't know, I think we might get a little surge right at the last 30 minutes. Hey guys, we just got back from a hunt just a little bit ago, and I wanted to show you guys a pretty awesome product. Before I do, I do want to tell you there is a discount code for this that you can save 30% off, I'll link it down below and I'll pop it up on the screen so you guys know what to do. I never thought of myself using this until after today's hunt, this is definitely something I'd be using. What this is, it's called a body furnace, and so what you do is there's straps on it and you can put it on, a lot of guys put it on their stomach and wrap around, you know, like before they're going to go out on a hunt under like, you don't want to put it on your bare skin, you take this, heavy boys, you just cinch it down like right there, it's actually getting pretty warm. And it's nice because it curves really good, but it is, it just keeps you warm, and you can set the temperature low, medium, high, or you can go on the app, there's an app and you can go in there and set it on the temperature, the actual degrees that you want, it goes up to 140 degrees, but some guys put it on their abdomen, some guys put it up, up on their chest and like Matt from HyperX Sportsman, he actually sticks it on his lower back after a hunt, even kind of like a rehab type deal. To me, the code is very, very good, and it's, this is very comfortable, it's flexes really good, so it kind of curves your body, but just let me show you real quick, since I showed you this, let me show you the app, I'll show you how to connect. So real quick, what you do is you hold it down, you got to download the app, it's free. Once these lights on the side start going white like there, I'm going to hit connect, let that go, it's pairing, it's connected successfully, continue, and it's already set in 140 degrees, so you can adjust this by using your finger to go around, or you can just up and down with the arrows. But it's pretty slick, last about six hours, there's the battery life for the body furnace, and put that code in guys. We were hunting brutal conditions today, we're going to use it out in the field tomorrow, but I wanted to get this code out to you guys before Christmas, 30% off, you'll save a lot of money, hope you guys check it out, we really like it. Thanks for watching today's video, and we'll see you guys on the next one.


Hello. In this video, we'll use the new OpenShift launcher to generate code by using one of the supported runtimes under Red Hat OpenShift application runtime technologies that you're seeing here. For the first example, we'll generate a Spring Boot application. Let's start by launching our project. The first step is to select whether you want to automatically deploy your application on OpenShift or if you want to download the code and build it locally. I'll select build and deploy online. My launcher is currently running on an OpenShift environment and I have pre-configured the launcher to be able to launch applications on my OpenShift cluster. In the next step, we'll choose whether we'll create a new application or deploy an example application. I'll choose to create a new application. The launcher is now able to generate a multi-keyard application. You can generate front-end as well as back-end runtime. For the simple first example, I'm going to ignore the front-end. I'll just jump onto the back-end code. For the back-end code, I'm choosing Spring Boot as my application runtime. The other choices available are Node.js, Thontail, Vertex for Reactive applications. In the next step, we'll choose the type of application code to generate. We have currently two choices here. One is a HTTP API. The other one is a relational persistence CRUD application. I'll choose the CRUD application for our needs. My launcher is connected to my GitHub account. When I generate this code, the launcher will automatically go and create a repository on my GitHub. I can choose a name for my application. For now, I'll leave the name as what is generated. This is a summary of what I've selected so far. We have the application name, the Maven artifact that it generates, the other Maven details like version and the group ID. For example, I can change the company name here to redhat.newapp. And I'll set up the application now. As you can see, the first stage is generating the code and adding that to the GitHub repository. Next, it goes and applies that application onto my OpenShift cluster and it provides me some instructions on what the next steps are. As you can see, the code has been added to my GitHub and it gave me instructions on how to clone the code, make changes and commit and push. It also deployed this application on my OpenShift cluster. Now, if I look at the project in which the app got deployed, it named it same as the repository name. There is a build that is in progress. As you can see, it is running a source to image build. The app has also deployed a database and this is a post-3sql database. This build will take a couple of minutes to run. I'll pause the video and come back when it is ready. You can see that the container image is now built and pushed into the registry. And now it is trying to deploy this good application. The pod is getting ready and the application is now running. This is the sample app. I'll say Hello World. It responds with Hello World. Now, this application also has a CRUV app which is accessible at this URL. It provides a fruit list. Let us add a new fruit here and set the point here and the fruit got added. The code has been added to the GitHub repo. This is the starter code that we can make changes to and edit this to build our own application as needed. That was a quick overview of using the launcher to generate code for starting off your cloud-needed applications. Thanks a lot for watching.


So now what we're going to do is we're going to take a look at Sam and Sam's calendar or how to manipulate Sam So that we get the best that we can so once you've signed up for our classes and whatnot You've seen this and hopefully you know obviously we've had a few homework assignments So one of the things that we can do is we see that we have this calendar and you know It's Friday right now, you know, so I click on Friday and nothing's happening So I got a magically click over here and you can see this is where at least the assignments from last week are coming into play But what happens if I notice they're disabled and my personal opinion You know these make it available, but I have to click on the specific data there there So another option that I can do is if I scroll up to the top right now We see that I'm at the academic calendar. I can also change that to activity list And when I do what happens is suddenly I get to see my class and what Assignments are now available what I've done and what I haven't done and I can switch that from any class that I happen to be in So right now I'm in my IO3. I also have my IO5 class You can see same stuff, but whichever classes you have signed up for they're going to be available for you


If you are an investor in bitcoin, crypto, digital assets, this is not a set it and forget it type of industry. I think you really got to be on top of things, especially moving forward in 2024 or 2025 and everything that comes in between. So it might be hoovy to subscribe. But that's it. Thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate it. Now let's get into, let's just do a little chat on a Saturday. And then we'll get out of here, answer all your questions, all that good stuff and go from there. Let's do this. Let's see, only services banks can offer. Yeah, Trump's got a good point. You cannot do your due diligence in today's world. You can only be an insider to get the real scope scoop. I gotta tell you, it's not too far off. Unfortunately, that is the truth for a lot of different things. There's so much information out there that will never be privy to. And there's deals that are gone behind closed doors that we'll never know about. And everybody who talks about how I picked the right winner. I think sometimes people just get lucky quite honestly. I think the real thing is exactly what Travis says is you got to kind of know a lot of things in the inside. Now it doesn't mean that you can't pick winners along the way. I think this is where it comes down to time. Time in the market is more important than timing the market. That's why I do the investment strategy I do myself. How much for the bridge? I will sell it to you for one. You know what? I'll do a discount today, $100,000 in Bitcoin. I'll give him a Bitcoin address, send it over. I'll send you that that bridge. Yeah, I'm gonna do the same thing. Build the base, build the base. Oh, that's right. Well, it's Easter. We'll probably want to have a video tomorrow. So enjoy today. That's why I'm gonna do a quick live stream. Get out of here. Nathan says, are you sleeping on Hex and Pulse Shake? Yes, I'm still sleeping on it. I know a lot of people love it, but just don't get it. And then people will say, well, Rob, you don't get it because you don't understand technology and you're right. So you do you and I'll do me and everybody's good. Any thoughts on play to earn game recently released on Avalanche Network DCAU? I had to take a look at the game. There's a lot of games that are out there that frankly, just not very fun to play. So I get the whole gamer's argument.   Makes a lot of sense actually. So even if Avalanche comes on there and they're often offering low transaction fees, and it's very smooth and very fast, but the games are awful. It's not going to make it. I'm just telling you Crypto Pew Pew. Crypto Pew Pew Crews. Hey, Rob, always watch your show and NFA. Thank you. Being a trucker, I'm trying to trade and only invest in Bitcoin, Aida and Nier. Do you have personal thoughts on Nier? Yeah, I actually dollar cost average Nier. The reason why I like Nier is first of all, they have a form of sharding already. If you didn't know that I've covered this in a couple of videos previously. Also, I've talked to a couple of people who have launched different projects on different chains. They talk to these chains and they ask them if they can handle certain loads. And they go, yeah, man, we can handle everything. And when they launch on it, they crash them. And it's a concern because people will come out and they'll say, yeah, our transaction per second is this and we can make things so quick and our blockchains are at capacity right now, but we're still have low transaction fees. But then when they actually put the rubber to the road, it doesn't work. One thing about Nier is that they were the launch partner for Sweatcoin.  I don't really care because first of all, I don't care. And second of all, it's I own a boatload of it. So I'm going to talk about it obviously. And they had the largest token generation event in the history of crypto. And it went off without a hitch. They had over, well, first of all, they have over 200 million downloads because they were a Web 2 app. They went to Web 3. Then they had 20 million plus wallets that were used. Correct me if I'm wrong in the comment section, but it was millions of wallets. I know that for a fact. And then from there, the tokens that they had that they were accumulating by walking was able to go into their Web 3 wallet and Nier did it fine. Didn't crash, no problem, no issues. So with me, I look at Nier, I'm like, has it gone down? No. Has it actually done what it said it's going to do? Yes. So think of all the other chains out there that promise the moon, they don't, they crash and they stutter and they fall and they're like, well, just a beta. So that's all I'm going to say about that. I like Nier. I like a lot of stuff. Yeah, exactly. I shouldn't have said it like that. I should have been more pleasing and nice, but sometimes. Oh, PK is an OG and watching us together in space with Crazy for Crypto with Dave and Ivan on tech, keep with good work. Ivan is an interesting guy. He's fine. We're obviously family have a traditional Easter time. So what are you serving? No, we all, our kids are gone. And we might just have a Easter dinner here with some friends, but that's about it. Beware of Elizabeth. Elizabeth Warren, probably. Yeah. What's your thoughts on H-bar and Algo? I Delacost average Algo. H-bar, not that I just haven't looked into it too deeply, but I'm sure it's awesome. I mean, if you have it, I'm sure it's awesome. But that's about it. Thank you, Patrick. Upstairs Saints Bloss. Thank you, Vicky. Are you? Good morning. Defy Kingdom. I gotta check that out. Yes, a little late because I'm in Texas right now. So I'm in Texas now. I'll be in Los Angeles next week. And then the end of the month will be in Las Vegas. And then the month after that will be in London and London. So maybe we'll catch up with you. How's tomato coin going? We're still trying to close that deal with Olive Garden. We'll see if it goes through. I think that's it. Let's see. Cardano top three by 2040. I'm going to give my prediction for Cardano. Cardano in 2040 will be between number three in the world and number 2000. That's a good one. Let's see. Yeah. Elon pumping and dumping Doge. Elon for prison 2023. I don't know if you guys saw the tweet from Lynn Alden. It's good. You don't follow Lynn Alden on Twitter. It's a must follow. And she had some choice words to say for Elon Musk. It's pretty good. Hello, Lisbon, Portugal. Very nice. Atomic stack. What do you think about getting a job that deals with crypto? Do you think it's an emerging job sector? Sure. Why not? I guess it depends on the job. A lot of the places that I talk to, they've been laying off people. So it just depends on the position that you're in, right? Developers probably looking pretty good. Marketing and human resources and things like that. Maybe not so much. So just be aware. Elon is using Twitter for liquidity. It could be. Oh, I didn't know this. This is interesting. See, I'm glad I talked to you guys. Robert, you see the Cosmos Staking Calculator tells you the best time to restake on ledger. No, I did not. Let me, let's take a look. Cosmos Restaking Calculator. Cosmos. Now it's always, if you're talking about this one, the one on staking rewards, this might be different because this just tells you the amount that you're going to get if you stake for a certain amount of time at the rate of my lord, 22%, that's not sustainable. Interesting. Ah, that's just it. So this is a great website, everybody called stakingrewards.com and you can go there and you can look up every different type of crypto that's our digital asset that you can stake and it gives you a percentage. Then also this, I'd like to direct your attention to the adjusted rewards. Adjusted rewards are the annualized reward rate adjusted by the inflation of the network supply. So like, even if you delegate Cosmos 20%, it's only 4.2%, which is still pretty good. I'll take that. That's about as good as a T-bill right now actually. So pick your poison. You want to have a treasury bill or you want to stake your Cosmos. That's a good one. So GT, let me know where there's a restaking calculator. That'd be interesting. That will be really interesting actually. 22% equity. I don't know if that's true. Like I think we're all a little bit jaded, aren't we?  But don't hold your breath. It's probably going to happen again. Digital Woody's has a counterpoint. Elon is good for America and crypto. No one's going to agree with everything that's just life. You know what it's like? It's like that first story, which I forgot to make mention of, which is this. So some people say Elon is good for crypto, and some people say they're bad for crypto. Like I'm talking about DeSantis, like he's the greatest thing of all time. And I should have made mention of this. And this one actually was a comment from Banana Duck87.  And if he does this, you know, Republicans are going to vote this way, this way, this way. And I said, you know what? That's true. I forgot to say this, that just like the old adage, all models are wrong and only some are useful, all politicians are wrong and only some are useful. And that's what I feel about Ron DeSantis. He ain't perfect. And again, they work for us, right? They're just essentially, if you want to think of them as tools, so politicians are, and when they don't work, then you get rid of them. Unfortunately, it takes a long time to do that. So just saying. Rob, you've seen Alex around, he was running, I don't know, but I know who's looking for him, the New York Attorney General. So Alex Machinsky is going to hopefully answer. Oh, man. And there was this, we're having such a good day right now. I don't know if I want to ruin this for everybody. Okay, I will. So take a listen to this. This is going to take a look. Where's Aaron Bennett? I'll show you in a second. Oh, this is going to really make everybody pretty pissed off. Let me share this with you. If you haven't seen this already, just take a listen to this. So this is a leaked inside conversation between Chris Ferraro and Dean Tappan for the upper echelon of Celsius. And they're warning that Alex Machinsky, New Gold and other senior Celsius execs were selling their cell through the OTC desk off without having any lockup period of my legally stealing the USDC of us, the investor. It's about a minute long. Sorry to ruin your day, but it will make you realize that it really was a scam. Not to put another thing on your plate, but we have paid USD out to top employees totaling $40 million due to sell buybacks. Not sure if we should be monitoring or limiting this in any way, but wanted to make you aware. Top employees being Alex, Daniel, Nuke, etc. So we pay and sell then we buy back what they sell. Correct. We let them sell it back to us via the OTC desk. So employees with big cell holdings end up costing the company a lot of USD or Ethereum, etc. So the 40 million is sell bonus payments to top employees. And they sell and do not hold so we buy in USD primarily. No, no. Sorry, I didn't explain. Celsius has bought $40 million worth of sellback from the top five or six employees. Were they allocated in the ICO bonus payments or they purchased them and sold? ICO bonus and other payments of the sort. But top employees did not buy in the first place. They were awarded. Correct. And there was a short lock up period? Yeah, in some cases no lock up. That's insane. Who can stop that? Not sure. This is why I'm bringing it up to you. If anyone ever found out our position and how much founders took in USD could be a very, very bad look. Absolutely. My point is all sell awards should best like equity options. Four year. Agreed. But that is not the reality and I think us spending any money on buybacks given our situation is bad. We are using users USDC to pay for employees' worthless sell all because the company is the one inflating the price to get the valuations to be able to sell back to the company. And the same people ordering buying in the markets are the same people selling their tokens when the price appreciates. Should be awarded for your vest with scheduled selling. What are they? So there you go. Sorry to, yeah, I really should not play that. But yeah, that's essentially what it was. So there we are. Yeah, digital woody exactly what I thought when I saw that too. But is anybody surprised at this point? Let's be honest. And here we are. So what are we going to do? Well, we're going to have to just take a step back and go, can I change anything right now? What can I do? What can I do for these things to change it? The only thing we really can do is take a look at that catastrophe and say, well, I got to build back and move from there. I know a lot of six figures myself. So here we are. And the legal process is going to be a long time. That's just how it goes. And hopefully at some point, it all gets resolved. But for right now, we just know that that was the worst of all time. All right. And the hawks did it very perfectly. Not your keys, not your crypto. I even surprised a little bit. Yeah, Daniel exactly. Hmm. That's I never thought about that. That's right. Hey, Rob, you weren't your green sweater. Shelly puts the green screen hairs out of business. That's true. It's tough, but you have to angle the camera the right way to make the green screens work. I could even lie effectively. It's pretty sad. I got to agree. Live and learn. Yeah, I suppose so. All right, everybody. So that's it. So look at Saturday. Get out of here. That's it for today. No show tomorrow. It's Easter. Enjoy time with your family and friends and all that good stuff. But that's it for today. So thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate you. Hit that like on your way out. Fantastic. And then I'll see you guys on the next one. Have a good weekend. Adios.


So remember that if real numbers a and b are multiplicative inverses, then the product ab is equal to 1. We can extend this idea to congruences and define multiplicative inverses mod n. a and b are multiplicative inverses mod n when a times b is congruent to 1 mod n. Now finding a multiplicative inverse is a special case of solving a congruence. So for example let's try to find the inverse of 7 mod 26. So we need to find the multiplicative inverse of 7 mod 26 so we want to solve the congruence 7a congruent to 1 mod 26. So if 7a is congruent to 1 mod 26, then we know that 7a is 1 more than a multiple of 26. So we'll use our Diathontine method of solving this and get a equal to 3b plus 5b plus 1 divided by 7. So we want 5b plus 1 over 7 to be an integer and so we need some integer c to be equal to 5b plus 1 and solving this for b we find b is equal to c plus 2c minus 1 divided by 5. Again we want 2c minus 1 over 5 to be an integer and so we need some integer d to be equal to 2c minus 1 divided by 5. Applying our Diathontine method we get c is equal to 2d plus d plus 1 divided by 2. Again we want d plus 1 over 2 to be an integer so we need some integer e to be equal to d plus 1 over 2. We'll apply our Diathontine method and find d is equal to 2e minus 1 and so now we have our system and if e is an integer everything else will be as well. Now since our first computation is to find 2e minus 1 we'll make e equal to 1. So if e equals 1 then d is 1. If d is equal to 1 then c is 3. If c is equal to 3 then b is 4. If b is equal to 4 then a is 15 and so the multiplicative inverse of 7 mod 26 is equal to 15.


Today it all came together right there to jump fast to jump hard and get up with that is so inspiring to myself, huh? so I'm bringing the heavy ball because What super high energy day I swear I'm the energy forecaster if you're in tune with yourself You can feel the days that guy will go like this and today's one of them can't really pass up today's dunk day I mean look at this day. Look at it. It's freaking 74 It's crisp like it's Arizona, but it's not dude It's humid Florida going to a low rim with a medicine ball because I want to work on my dribble dunks And I'm very weak off the one step and the no step vertical and I think a medicine ball is perfect so I invested in that invested in myself and I got the ball yesterday at Dick's Sporting Good curbside because Coronavirus still going strong. This is the only court open. I'm super super pumped last time I was here had a great day and I think it's just the energy of the rim and the energy of the day I just really can't help myself. I have to go. I have to put this energy to work I'm a little bit sore. I wanted to mention that I'm a little bit sore But I think that's only from two. It's over two days ago over 48 hours ago So I think my muscles are ready to fire again and my central nervous system is definitely at its peak right now So I'm going to use that energy. Look at this day It's definitely the nicest day of the entire planet history, so that's good I'm getting that thumbnail so I'm bringing the heavy ball because my last step and my no step is really weak So I want to get stronger in that position I don't think it's the best to do your dribble dunks with because you might mess up your rhythm of your approach So I'm going to stick to just drop step and the no step and really get that strong Like me you're probably wondering how much this weighs and I don't even know I think it's three pounds It's like it's not that heavy maybe five I don't know. It's I should know that The thing about this is after you thrust it up. It almost pulls you up fingertip dunks They count but the reason I think this heavy ball is the best dribble dunk workout for me It's because I'm weak in that position and I really need to just focus on my footwork And if I focus on my footwork with a natural resistance of the ball, then I don't I don't worry about getting off rhythm I don't worry about carving the wrong patterns and stepping incorrectly And I could work on something that puts resistance without having to try to jump harder intensity I can add a natural weight that feels really good. Everybody's body is very different Learn what your body needs build that awareness so you can stimulate it properly so you can get responsive results My running vertical was measured at 42.5.  I'm trying to get my head dunked with my hands flat Yo, it's time for a high check on some technique But it also mentally felt like since I could do it with a weighted ball This will be easier so it's also a mental confidence thing and make me believe I can easily jump off the dribble Which I should but that goes a long way. I want to use all my energy on max of jumps I want to get my dribble dunks right focus your energy on what you need to work on It feels too easy almost there because it's bent.  That's progress and no Worry that it was a lower rim that side's definitely up there Five exactly measured by the fraction of an inch and if you're not tracking it You're not making progress. How can you make progress? You don't even know what you're doing How are you gonna do that ten feet big boy status dunk life? Great day. If your goals are dribble dunks stay focused on it figure out where your goals are if they're tricks work on those tricks I'm I want to be a game dunker. So that's why I'm heavily focused on the dribble dunks I don't really care about tricks right now, especially because I haven't gone to the level I want to get at once I get to that level. I know I want to do some tricks But ultimately game dunks dunk on people and their entire history of ancestry what practice today It all came together right there to jump fast to jump hard and get up with the ball in my hand I felt like I was going for a high check Which is my max effort jump my best jump and I put it into a dribble dunk that is so Inspiring to myself, huh? He's not smart. He just stays with problems longer. So that's me. Let's go Seriously, that might be the most beautiful day in the history of the friggin universe and this planet at least because I haven't really been to other Planets yet, but like it seems like this one for this planet this day is like really good
