For the next 30 minutes in cooperation with the Los Angeles Police Department, you will travel step-by-step on the side of the law through an actual case transcribed from official police files. From beginning to end, from crime to punishment, Dragnet is the story of your police force in action. It was Tuesday, February 4th. It was cloudy in Los Angeles. We were working a night watch out of Juvenile Bureau assigned to University Division. My partner's Ben Romero. The boss is Inspector Bowling. My name's Friday. We were on the way out from the office and it was 713 p.m. when we got to the corner of South Waverly and Chester Avenue. The grocery store. I guess that's him back here to meet Connor. Yeah. Come on. Looks like he's getting ready to close up. Yeah, I guess we just about made it in time, huh? Excuse me, sir. Yes, sir. Help your gentlemen. We're looking for Henry Loomis. Yes, sir. That's my name. Police officers, Mr. Loomis. My name's Friday. I believe I talk to you on the phone. Oh, yeah, yeah. This is my partner, Sergeant Romero. Howdy, Mr. Loomis. What if you'd mind waiting a half a minute, officers? Just getting a little book work straightened out here. Today's receipts. Yeah, I'll go right in. I'll take a bit of a minute. Let's see here. Mm-hmm. 37. 45. 37. Huh? There we go. Ain't that lousy book work going to get a girl to come in and do it one of these days? Let's go up front here and talk. All right, sir, fine. Pull up a couple of stools there, might as well be comfortable. Yes, thank you. Thank you. Did you talk to any of the other merchants in the neighborhood yet? No, sir, not yet. We'd like to find out what you have to tell us first. Well, it's one of those high school kids I can tell you that. I'm sure of it. I don't want to sound like an old grouch, but this stealing's got to stop. You get quite a bit of business from the high school trade, Billy? At the noon hour, and then just after school, that's out.  Mm-hmm. Do you especially cater to the high school crowd? I mean, do you serve lunch here, or anything like that? No, I don't. I usually get the kids to take their lunch. They come in and buy soda water or milk to drink with their sandwiches. They seem like such a nice class of kids. I don't think they were thieves. Well, how long is this stealing been going on, Mr. Holmes? I'd say about 10 days, two weeks. It's not very hot from the getaway with it, 15 or 20 kids crowd in here during noon hour. I'm usually busy up at the counter. It's no great trick for any one of them to make off with a couple of dollars with the merchandise. You say this happens just about every day? Every day, the kids are in here. Yeah. I tried playing detective myself for a while, trying to catch the gilly ones. Didn't do much good. Mm-hmm. As long as this stealing's been going on, Mr. Loomis, has it ever amounted to more than just a few dollars worth of food every day? No, that's a funny part of the size. When I check back on my inventories, it's always just about the same amount. A few cans of meat, vegetables, butter, a few loaves of bread. It's not so much the value of this stuff. I just don't like the idea of some kid making a fool out of me day after day. Has your cash register ever been tampered with?  No, so that's another thing I can't understand. If a kid's going to turn thief, you'd think he'd go after the cash. Whoever's doing it, they've never tried anything like that here. Well, how about some of the other merchants in the neighborhood, sir? You mentioned on the phone to a couple of others, having the same trouble that you are. Yeah, so there's George Bopey. He's the newspaper distributor and there's Collins. He's got the grocery place up the street. You can talk to them. I gave you their addresses on the phone, didn't I? Yes, you did. Just one more thing, Mr. Loomis. About this crowd of high school boys that hang around here, any of them in particular, you might suspect? As a matter of fact, there is. I certainly can't prove anything, but I just have a feeling about it. I don't like the boy. Just one boy, sir? Yes, sir, there may be more than one that's guilty, but this young fellow I'm pretty sure of. What's his name? I hear the kids call him Harry, red-haired boy, curly red hair, tall, a few freckles. Won't be hard to get his last name if we need it. Mm-hmm. Is there anything else you can think of that we ought to know? You go up the street and talk to the other two men, Sergeant George Bopey and Collins. They might have something more for you. I think I've told you about everything. All right, Mr. Loomis. I've got your home phone here. If we want to contact you later tonight, I'll call you there, is that all right? Perfectly all right. Here's our card, sir. You can call us at that number there anytime, all right? Thank you. What do you think's behind the whole thing, Sergeant? This cheap, stealing, nickel and dime stuff. I don't know, sir. We'll try and find out for you. It just doesn't make sense, stealing like that day after day. You'd think even the kid would know that you can't go on stealing forever. Yes, sir, a lot of them give it a try. From the very start, the whole pattern of the case and the thief's method of operation made little or no sense at all. The thefts had been going on for more than two weeks. They'd all taken place in a 12-square-block area. In each of the two dozen cases reported to us, not one of the thefts had been for more than $5, either in cash or merchandise. The thief's scene of operation included two grocery stores, a drug store, coin boxes attached to the newsstands in the neighborhood, and a 5 and 10-cent variety store. With one exception, all of the cases involved theft of merchandise only. The breaking open of coin boxes attached to newsstands was the single instance in which money was taken. The total sum was less than $3.50. 7.40 p.m., Ben and I left the grocery store and went up the street to the home of George Brophy. He was the neighborhood newspaper distributor who operated the coin box newsstands which had been broken into. Well, I think you can just about count on it, Sergeant. It's one of the kids in the neighborhood doing all this, either that or a couple of them are working together. What makes you so sure about it, Mr. Brophy? Well, for one thing, we got more in our share of kids out this way. A lot of them are from poor families, underprivileged, you might say. I guess they figured it's one way of picking up extra spending money. I got nothing against the kids myself.  I wouldn't prosecute them for that. Well, sir, that's not exactly it. The point is they're stealing. If they get away with this small-time stuff, they might figure they're ripe for something bigger. Probably be the best thing in the world for them if we can stop them now and set them on the right track, you see? Yeah. Put in with you there, Sergeant. I don't know how much I can help you, though. Do you have any idea at all who it might be that's breaking into the coin boxes? Well, like I say, I have nothing against any kid myself, but there is one of them around the neighborhood I've been a little suspicious about, a red-headed kid. What's he look like, you know? Red hair, wrackle face, kind of tall and gangly. Typical high school kid. Old Loomis down at the grocery store, he's been a lirry about the same kid, too. Well, why do you single out this red-haired boy, Mr. Brophy? Well, he... Oh, excuse me, I better grab a hand. Yes. Hello. Oh, yeah, Maggie, honey. Hmm. Four of them. One of them born. Is that right? All right. Four in this morning, a full four of them, huh? Yeah, yeah, just a minute, I'll call. Uh, great. Yeah, honey. It's for you, Maggie Harris. Oh, okay. Thanks. Excuse me, officer. A friend of my wife, Sir Cat, just had a fork kitten. Oh, I see. Oh, where were you? Oh, yeah, about the kitten. Yes, sir, why do you suspect it? Uh, well, there's a couple reasons, Sergeant. Late one night, when I was making my collections, I spotted the boy hanging around one of the newsstands. Didn't look like he had any business there at that time of night. He looked up and saw me coming. He turned and ducked down a side street. Well, do you have any idea where this boy lives, Mr. Brophy? No, can't say I do. He goes to high school. If he blocks up on South Waverly, I know that. It's the same boy that the grocery man had his eye on. You said there were a couple of reasons why you were suspicious of this boy, Mr. Brophy? Yeah. Well, this other thing doesn't mean too much. There wasn't anything really wrong with it. It just seemed a little queer, that's all. What was that? Well, I dropped in at the safety liquor store down the street last week. I wanted to pick up a little something. I saw the same kid in there. He was asking Benny the guy who runs the place if he'd sell him a fifth of bourbon. I heard the kid saying it was supposed to be for his father. His father was sick and couldn't come in. Of course, Benny turned him down. He wouldn't sell it to the kid. Well, that was the extent of it, huh? Yeah, that's all. Wasn't anything wrong with it? The kid didn't insist. I thought it was just a little out of line sending the kid out to liquor. Well, it's about size of it. How about some of the other merchants in the neighborhood who have been bothered with these petty thefts? Do you know if any of them are suspicious of this boy? No, no, no. Wouldn't know that. Henry Lo missed out the stores, but they don't want to know. Well, thanks very much, Mr. Brophy. If anything else comes up, you can get us at the number on this card here. Oh, okay, son. Fine. If I can help at all to clear this thing up, I'd be glad to do it. Well, we'll probably be checking back with you in thanks again, sir. Sure is funny, the whole thing.  Sir?  Cat had four kittens, like I told you. Uh-huh.  What's that, sir? Well, she thought the cat was a male. The next morning, Ben and I continued checking with various merchants and residents in the neighborhood where the series of petty thefts were taking place. We located in question one more shopkeeper who was suspicious of the tall, red-haired boy known as Harry. That afternoon, we went to the high school on South Waverly Avenue to check on him. From his first name and his description, he was identified by the boy's vice principal as Harry Thomas Dunbar. He was 18 years old and a sophomore with an average scholastic record. We were told that Dunbar had left the grounds about half an hour before with the high school's basketball team. The group was headed for one of the local sports pavilions where the team had one of its more important games scheduled for that afternoon. Harry Dunbar was in charge of selling the printed programs for the game. Ben and I drove out to the sports pavilion and checked with one of the boy's collecting tickets at the door. He told us we'd find Harry Dunbar inside at the program stand. These high school kids sure take their basketball seriously, don't they? Yeah, big turnout sounds like. We're gonna be lucky if we can find that boy in this crowd. Yeah. You see him anywhere? No. Which side is the program stand supposed to be on? Well, there's a lot of them along and through here on both sides. I guess we better start checking them out. Yeah. Joe? Yeah. That stand back down on the left, you see? Right-headed kid? Yeah, let's check him, huh? Thank you. Programs, dime, complete programs for the game, ten cents. Excuse me, son. Program, mister? Your name, Harry Dunbar. Yeah, that's right. Well, police officers, Harry. We'd like to talk to you for a few minutes if it's all right. Oh, well, I can't talk to you now. I'm pretty busy selling these programs here. I suppose we wait a few minutes, son. So you only have a few left there to sell? No, I wouldn't do any good waiting. When I sell these, I've got something else to do. So I'm only going to take a few minutes of your time here. We won't keep you long. What is it, officer? What do you want to talk to me about? Just have a few questions for you, son. That's all. Can you step out in the lobby with us for just a minute? What's it all about? I'd like to know. We'll just as soon not talk about it out here. Oh, all right. We can go up this ramp here. All right. There's a hallway back here. Lungs underneath the stands won't be so noisy. Fine, we won't keep you long. Just a few routine questions. This ought to do OK. What is it you want to know about? Do you know of Mr. Loomis? Harry runs a grocery store near the high school. Yeah, old man Loomis. I go down to his store and eat lunch sometimes. Why? How about a Mr. Collins? He runs another store near the high school. Yeah, I know the place. Sometimes I go there, too. A bunch of the kids hang around there during lunchtime. We've had quite a few complaints from Collins and Loomis. Some of the other stores in the neighborhood, too. We're checking on some of them. Thought maybe you could help us out, Harry. No, I couldn't help you any. Mr. Collins and that old man Loomis, they don't like us. They want to get us in trouble. I think they're lying. Worrying about what? About us kids stealing things out of their stores. I bet they even told you I'm stealing things from them. Are you, Harry? Of course not. They can't say any of the stole things. They don't know. They can't prove anything. Do you know of a man that distributes newspapers in your neighborhood son of Mr. Broffing? Who? Mr. Broffing. Some of the coin boxes on his newsstands have been broken into. He thought maybe you could tell us something about that. Why me? I don't know any Mr. Broffing.  He saw you hanging around one of the newsstands one night and there's something else. He saw you trying to buy a bottle of liquor in the neighborhood. Is that right? We've had three or four reports on you, son. What do you say? You want to tell us about it? They're crazy. I haven't done anything. Well, you got nothing to worry about, son. I won't tell you any. Look out, Ben. Next rabbit. I got him. All right. Hold it up, son. Let me go. Let me go. Take it easy, young fella. I haven't done anything. I haven't. Now, let me go. Please, I haven't done anything. I'm glad you tried to run away. I have to get home. I got to get home right away. All right, son. We'll take you there. No, you can't go with me. I have to go alone. I'm afraid we're going to have to hold on to you, Harry. Either we take you home or we take you downtown. Which is it? I tried to tell him I couldn't do everything. I tried, but it didn't work out. I can't do everything. What do you mean, son? Take me home. I'll let them tell you. You are in the Forgery Division of a Metropolitan Police Department. Handwriting analysis. All right. Now write the alphabet in lowercase, please. You are listening to a police officer taking a sample of a suspect's handwriting. This handwriting sample will be compared with a Ford signature. Side by side, two signatures may often look alike, but closer examination will prove a world of difference. You'll find the same is true when you compare Fatima with any other king-sized cigarette. Side by side, Fatimas are the same in length and circumference. 85 millimeters long, one and one-sixty-fourths inches around. And Fatima filters the smoke exactly the same long distance as any other king-sized cigarette. But in Fatima, the difference is quality. Fatima gives you extra mildness, a much different, much better flavor and aroma. Remember, Fatima has all the advantages of extra length plus Fatima quality, which no other king-sized cigarette has. So insist on the best next time by King-sized Fatima. Wednesday, February 5th, 4.15 p.m. We left the sports pavilion, got in the car, and started to drive our teenage suspect, Harry Dunbar, to his home. On the way, we questioned him about the series of petty thefts which had been going on in his neighborhood. We asked him about stealing merchandise from the grocery store run by Mr. Loomis. He admitted he was responsible. He said he'd been stealing things from the store for more than a month. We asked the boy about the petty thefts from the grocery store operated by Mr. Collins. Again, he told us he was responsible. He also admitted stealing from the neighborhood drugstore and the Variety Store, in addition to breaking into the coin boxes on the self-service newsstands. In each instance, he described his method of operation. He estimated that over a period of some four-and-a-half weeks, he'd stolen approximately $50 in merchandise and about $5 in cash. We asked him why. He refused to answer. You must have had a reason for doing all this, Harry. Why don't you tell us? We're going to find out sooner or later. Sorry, officer. It's the next turn you're left. OK. Some matters, son. You afraid of what your folks are going to say? No, that's not it. I never stole anything in my life till this time. When I started it in, I didn't think of it as stealing. It's something I had to do. That's all. I couldn't help it. That doesn't make much sense, Harry. What do you mean you couldn't help it? It's the truth. You've got to believe me. There wasn't anything else I could do. Well, what was it then? Was somebody forcing you to steal? No. Can't you just believe me? It's something I had to do.  I'll walk home the rest of the way. I promise you I'll come and see you tomorrow, huh? You know we couldn't do that, son. You've already admitted stealing from a half a dozen stores in the neighborhood, breaking into those coin boxes. It's going to have to be straightened out one way or the other. But I can pay them back for what I took. I got a job. I'll pay back every one of them. I believe you, son. But there's still a lot of explaining that's going to have to be done. This is the 1,500 block, Harry. Want to point out your house for us? Son? Can't we fix it up some other way? We don't have to go to my house, do we? Son, you face it the better. How about it? Keep on going. It's the way down the end of the block. Well, now, which is it, son? There's no houses beyond this. Just that shack down there. That's my house. OK. Maybe I better go in first, see if everything's all right. It'll be all right. We'll come with you. Then I followed the boy up the stairs and into the house. From the outside, it looked run down and badly in need of painting. On the inside, it still looked in fair condition except for the housekeeping. The floor of the living room was littered with soil clothing, ashes, dirt, and dust. The few pieces of furniture didn't look much better. A card table set in one corner was crowded with dirty dishes and scraps of half-eaten food. Across the room was a baby in a crib. Couldn't have been more than a few months old. Apparently, the bedclothes in the crib hadn't been changed for days. Next to the crib huddled in an army cot. Underneath a few thin blankets was a dark-haired little girl, maybe two, two and a half years old. Her face was thin and pale. She was asleep. Through an open door we could see into the next room where a woman was lying on a couch. There was an empty glass and a newly opened bottle of whiskey on the nightstand. She'd let me come in first, officers would have a chance to clean up a little kid's mess up the house. Harry, is that you, Harry? That's my mother. Rest a little, I guess. This is the baby in the crib. His name's Jerry. Well, that's my little sister on the cot there. Her name's Annie.  We want to talk to her. Don't get mad at her, huh, will you? Ma's had a tough time lately. She tries to do her best. What's the matter with the kids here, son? Have they been sick? You know, the baby had a cold, but I got that medicine from the drugstore. He seems to be okay. I'm not so sure about Annie though. She had a bad cold. Doesn't seem to be getting over it. You want to take a look, man? Yeah.  All right. Hey, Ma. Get up, will you? What is it? Who'd you bring home with you? A couple of policemen. They won't talk to you. What'd you bring them in for? Close the door there. I have to fix up a little. My mother'll be right out, officer. All right, son. Joe? Yeah. We better get to her phone right away. It looks pretty bad. What is it? The baby needs a doctor. A little girl here. I hope she does, too. What? I'm not sure she's alive. An ambulance was called immediately on Harry Dunbar's two-year-old sister, Annie, and his baby brother were both rushed to the general hospital. The mother, identified as Mrs. Florence Dunbar, was taken downtown and booked at the main jail on a drunk charge. 6.45 PM. We took the boy, Harry Dunbar, over to Ben's house. We put in a call to the general hospital to check on his little sister, Annie, and his infant brother. They told us both the children were suffering from malnutrition. The little girl, Annie, had double pneumonia. Miraculously, the baby seemed to have been spared. He was sick, but his condition wasn't considered serious. After Ben's wife fed him dinner, 18-year-old Harry Dunbar sat on and told us the story. Three months before, his father had deserted the family. His mother had made a pretence at supporting Harry and the two babies and then gave it up in favor of drinking. The whole burden of keeping the family alive was piled on the youngster's shoulders. Besides school, he had three odd jobs that he worked at to earn enough money to pay the rent, the gas and light bill, food and general necessities. It wasn't enough, so he had to take to stealing. His mother wouldn't work, but at the same time, she wouldn't let the boy apply for charity. He slept at Ben's house that night. And the next morning at juvenile bureau, he gave us the rest of the story. I guess it got too much for me. I don't know. I could sneak the food and medicine from the stores, all right, but... couldn't seem to get enough money to gather the rent bill and all that. Kids needed clothes, too.  Well, why'd never go for that, officer? She'd get mad when I talked about it, but said she had too much pride to take charity. Mm-hmm. Did your mother know that you were stealing the food and medicine that you used to bring home? I don't know. Guess so. I wouldn't be so mad at her, but every time I got some money together to pay bills, she wanted me to buy whiskey for her. She begged so much, I couldn't say no. Are we having your mother brought over from the main jail here? We'd like to find out if we can't locate your father. We want to check outside, Ben, see if they brought him his done bar over yet. Yeah, okay. Thank you. How about the kids' officer, Annie and the baby? How'd they do it? Well, I checked the hospital, Harry. The doctor's gonna call as soon as he can. I should have known, Ben.  I could take care of myself, but they had to depend on her. She'd only stop drinking. You go right in, Mrs. Dunbar. Harry, you all right, son? What have they been doing to you? I'm all right, mom. Don't hang on me like that. I was worried about you, Harry, you and the kids. I'm sorry they got sick. I didn't know. It's just bad luck, Harry. We got to stick together, you and me. There's a chair here, mom. Sit down, huh? I joined you. Hospital call. They took the message outside. Here you are. Thank you. The hospital officer? About Annie and the baby? Yeah, I tried soon. About your little sister, Annie. What about her? What did the doctor say? Well, it's not good, Harry. The doctor called and... said Annie had pneumonia. Pneumonia.  To take care of her? Well, it's not that way, son. I mean, the doctor said, uh, look, uh, you tell him what to do. What is it? What about Annie? We got a right to know. She's my little girl. Sergeant, you can tell me. You want to sit down, Harry? Yes, sir. Annie died 10 minutes ago. The doctors tried. They couldn't help. Annie's dead? That's right, son. And she's only a little kid. She's only two years old. Harry. Harry, son.  I didn't have to be her, my own little girl. My own little Annie. Be good to me, son. I don't know how I can stand it. My own little girl, Annie.  Go outside. No, Harry. I need you. I need you more than ever, son. Be good to me. We have to stick together now. We got to love one another. All right, Ms. Denver. No. I need Harry. He's all I got. Aren't you, son? That's so hard sometimes. Everything's against us. Lord only knows I've tried. We've got to try to be happy to stay together and love one another. Lord only knows...  Harry, don't blame me, son. We've got to try to be happy. I blame you? Anybody blame you? You killed her.  You killed Annie. Harry, don't say it. Don't say it. I will say it, ma. You did it. The whole terrible thing. Annie's dead. You did it. Don't you know what it means? No, son. Don't hurt me. All right, Harina. Take it easy. You know her, too, don't you? She did it. Her earner whisking and her drinking and laying around, not even caring about the kids. I tried to tell you, ma. At least you could have done. Take care of the kids. See, they're all right. You had to drink. You wouldn't work. You had to lay around.  I couldn't do it all. I tried. I couldn't do it all.  Please, son. Don't say that. We're going to love each other. I wouldn't hurt Annie.   You're not anybody's mother. You don't know what you're saying.  Lord knows I've tried to be a good mother. You don't mean what you're saying. Goodbye, my hope. I never have to see you again. Harry, please, don't go.  He wouldn't believe me, Sergeant. Lord knows I've tried. It's not easy. A husband deserting you the way Charlie did. Three kids on your hands. What can I do? Yes, ma'am. Harry ought to understand. I tried. Lord knows it's the best anybody can do. Just try and hope for the best. Yes, ma'am. I've only got one question. Yes. How hard did you try? The story you have just heard was true. Only the names were changed to protect the innocent. On April 23rd, trial was held in municipal court, city and county of Los Angeles, state of California. In a moment, the results of that trial. Now, here is our star, Jack Webb. Thank you. Friends, I have here a pack of Fatimas. Inside, of course, 20 king-sized Fatima cigarettes. Now, Fatimas are the same length and circumference as other king-sized cigarettes. And Fatima filters the smoke the same long distance. But only inside this golden yellow package do you get Fatima quality. That's right.  Next time, buy Fatima. ... 18-year-old Harold Dunbar was filed on in juvenile court. After the hearing, the court directed that the two Dunbar children be placed in a foster home.

Welcome to ArgoCon. Give it a clap. My name is Dan Garfield and... My name is Vojtek Cichol. On behalf of the ArgoCon committee we welcome you. We're really excited to be kicking off the very first ArgoCon EU. Very first time we're doing this. Couple of housekeeping items before we kick off. Obviously we want to thank our sponsors for making this happen. Acuity, Red Hat, Codefresh, Harness, Intuit and Pipe Kit. Make sure guys that you check out their stalls there. There's a lot of Argoswag to grab some chocolate even. So make sure you get there. Argo chocolate, Argo t-shirts, Argo trinkets of all kinds. Obviously this session is being recorded and will be available later along with all the slides. There are two tracks. This room is the Argo CD and rollouts room. And the other one is workflows and events later on also rollouts. So it's a mix but yeah, that's the setup.  And then lastly, I think it's time to introduce our first speaker. Yeah, without further ado I would like to introduce Hong Wang, acuity CEO and one of the creators of Argo. Give him a warm welcome. Okay, we still have people coming. Alright, to grab a seat. I think there's plenty of seats in front. And we can start. Okay, good morning everyone and welcome to the very first ArgoCon in Europe. And thank you for joining us. And a brief introduction about myself is my name is Hong Wang. And I'm one of the Argo project creators and also the co-founder and the CEO at acuity. And I was part of the initial Argo journey at Aplatics and also also at Intuit. And today I'm representing the whole community to kick off your ArgoCon experience. So I know we have new friends here. So I won't assume everyone know Argo perfectly. So I will give a little bit like history part about what Argo is doing and how we get there. So the overall Argo idea is quite simple. And we believe the Kubernetes is the operating system for cloud. It is like the Linux for single machine. And Argo is to fill the gap and make it easy to adopt Kubernetes. With Kubernetes native solutions. So I believe you could tell the Argo project is very unique among all the CNCR project. So it's made of the four products to solve different problems. And they are independent. I believe we have different audience here like someone is coming from the Argo workflow perspective. They are doing the automation, CI CD, data processing. We also have people love the Argo CD, love the user experience and doing GitOps here. So Argo CD, that's the first one at least there is the most popular GitOps solution. And it helps to manage the life cycle of both the business applications and also the system applications like Istio certificate manager. Basically using Argo CD kind of like manage your whole Kubernetes cluster. So Argo workflow is the Kubernetes native workflow engine. Simply, if you already know about Kubernetes, it's basically the advanced version of the Kubernetes job. But it do way more than just job. And Argo routes is doing the progress delivery including the blue, green and canary patterns. It can also do the experimentation. So in a nutshell, it is an advanced version of the Kubernetes deployment controller. It's kind of like can do the job in replacement of the Kubernetes deployment there also. So Argo events is the last one, but not least one. So it's an event-based dependency manager. How we understand it? It basically helps you to glue the external events with the Kubernetes events. So it can trigger the necessary actions in the Kubernetes native way. So let's look back the history a little bit just trying to help understand. So everything started at a company called Aplatics. So we built the end-to-end DevOps platform on top of the Kubernetes before the customer resource definition era. Basically it was not there yet. So that was Argo workflow 1.0.  So it was a bit complicated system to maintain because everyone saw like C nowadays, controller is everywhere.  Then it kind of solved a lot of the pain in there. So later we were able to redesign and rework the core engine based on the CRD and the system became basically the Argo workflow 2.0. And soon we got acquired by Intuit and Intuit asked us to help them to kick off their Kubernetes journey. So after we joined Intuit, we have the tremendous support from the company to execute on our vision. So not only we have the development resources, but also we have the best possible customer to help us to validate our ideas. Who is basically Intuit itself. So new ideas would turn out to be the new project will add it to the Argo family quickly. We got Argo CD, we got Argo routes and we also getting the Argo events from the BlackRock. And those ideas are not random. So but war based on our own experience to adopt Kubernetes at large scale. So in 2020, we donated the Argo project to CNCF and that basically another chapter started. So sort of numbers speaks for themselves. So with the ever increasing velocity, we were able to release new versions and features in a predictable cadence. And the whole system and also adoption were growing exponentially also. So here's an interesting page and kind of like two years in a row out of the 150 projects on the CNCF. Argo ranked the third in terms of the project velocity. Well, I don't think we can beat Kubernetes and giving we are betting on it to be the Kubernetes native solution. So Kubernetes should always be the number one. And then open telemetry also has a very strong momentum backed up by the observability needs. And I'm pretty happy we are settling on the third place here. So thank you. And in the late 2022, we graduated. And that was the defining moment and also the great recognition of the effort from all the maintainers on the contributors. And that was amazing. So I would admit that it was not an easy journey. And mostly due to the fact is we have four products to graduate. So those four products are quite independent and solving like focus on different areas. So we do have to repeat some process four times. And we made it. I'm very happy we made it. And we got a good celebration at that time. And thank you. And graduation is a milestone and not our destination. So it's a trophy and shared by all the contributors. And our journey continues from here. So five years ago. And when we just be a handful of the people working on the project. I could not imagine one day we have about 10,000 contributors like big or small, like from all over the world. I remember in 2018, we discussed the how to celebrate when we reach the 1000 get up stars for our workflows. And four years later, we have almost like 30,000 now. So it's still accelerating. And it's just like amazing journey. And thank you for the support. And a lot of people here may already be our contributors and thank you for the supporting support to get us here. Okay, so this is just some numbers here. But just don't don't take the number for granted. There's just number is number like many companies have adopted our goal in the production. So in 2021, there's was about like 200 companies self reported them. They are using our goal in the production. And in now it's 476. It's a much bigger. The number is keep growing, but it's really doesn't represent the truth to adoption number. It's basically a trend you can rely on. Since not all the companies will not add themselves to our repository. So I'm pretty sure currently there are thousands of companies are now relying on the Argo in the production now. So I mean, speaking of the success of the project, and I would give a lot of credits to our users and the supporters. So thank you for the feedback and participation in the community to help us to ship the product to be better. It is the best thing I could have from the open source and community to cheer us up and keep us going. I can tell that we are working on day to day in the community. A lot of times getting burned about all so many issues, so many security patches. But the being here see a lot of people showing up supporting us means a lot to us and thank you. So this is something very fresh and I got this message from my colleague Alex recently. And someone from the community sent him this screenshot and the rates and who invented Argo CD. And he must be one of the most lovely person in the world. And the second comment is I don't even use it, but I love it. So that's just like something you got this good vibe in the community. Cool. I want to emphasize one thing. So when we are talking about a much larger adoption across different industries, I'm pretty sure like people are from totally different industries here and there. So we have to stay above and beyond regarding the security practices. So the security audits and reviews are already our general practice. So it's done. But we are also actively participating all the CNCF security related program to improve ourselves to the next level. So one thing we did recently is we participated the security slam North America. And there's a code there. Basically we are the team moved our own goalpost. Basically we try to hold ourselves to be a higher standard. So it's just another reflection of our commitment to the security practice in general. And you can fully trust us with your production environment. Here's my opinion is I know I would consider Argo is reasonably successful at this stage. So what makes Argo tick in the end? So here's my opinion. So I believe we have the best technology in a trust ecosystem. And the people likes the light weighted, flexible and to the point solution. And Argo is doing that. Second, and we have a good diversity. Not to mention we have 10,000 contributors from all over the world. We also have the community made of both end users and vendors. So it's much healthy and strong setup. So keep things going and keep things stable. And the last one list is about effort. And we do committed to work with all the contributors in the community. We are limited resource, but we try our best. We do a lot. Just make sure we fully committed and to make the product to be sustainable here. Okay. You guys already see this page, but I want to call it out. Please get involved with the Argo project. And you can start contributing. You can have the feature request, fixing some issues, do some implementation, do the documentation, or simply help answer questions in the Slack channel. We got a very vibrant Slack channel in the CNC of Slack. And please be there. Secondly, you can be our champion in your company. Use Argo and help your teammates to learn more about Argo. And you can share your Argo experience and good or bad. We appreciate both. And we appreciate all kinds of the feedback to make the product better. So I already mentioned that this is the third time there is a QR code there. So we are doing our survey community survey for this year. So scan it and just participate in the survey and give us the feedback. So I think in the end, I want to thank you for all the Argo Condiment Sponsors, Acuity and Red Hat. And also thank you for the Plantium Sponsors, Codefresh and Harness. And also the Go Sponsor Intune and Pipekit. And thank you for sponsoring the event to make this possible. And please do drop by the Argo kiosk tomorrow in the KubeCon. We have an Argo project booth. And also you guys already know all the Argo vendors to grab your swag. And at last, this is my joke from my last Argo Con. May the think and healthy be with you. Hopefully you get it. All right, thank you.


Okay, this is a part of a series. There should be an annotation on the screen leading to the playlist I recommend watching it now we've been working with said to do some substitutions and We've been working with this file that we've created for the tutorial just a basic little text file with some random stuff in it Well, what we're going to do here is we are going to say I showed you how to you know substitute stuff so if we want to substitute every Capital T with lowercase t of course give it a file name We can do that. I showed you that if you want to do more than one command you can put the semi colon here and Go like this and we can say all capital these two uppercase E's and we got that But let's say you had a lot of things you want to do And your line would just get extremely long here or you would have It could get sloppy basically we can put all this stuff Into a text file and tell said to look at it. So that's what we're going to do today We're going to create a file. It's going to be a text file. You can call it whatever you want. I'll call it my said script and I will say let's substitute all capital T's with lowercase t's globally all Lowercase E's with capital E's globally and if I type this right, I want to say w Asterix dot forward slash Forward slash no global on that. Otherwise we'd wipe out every word But that should remove the first word of each line if I typed it properly And so now what I would say is said and I give it dash F telling it to look at a file What file are we going to look at this my said script file and what file are we going to modify? We're not going to put the I in there the dash I if you've been watching the series note I'm talking about that would modify the file the actual file, but we're just going to modify the output of it So we're going to enter here. And as you can see We have replaced all lowercase ease with capital these all the T's are now lowercase And we removed the first word from each line So you can put as many commands as you want inside the script file and it might clean up your code a little bit Yeah, you might need a second file You know, there's other options. Like I said, you can do it in line with semi-colons And you can also break things down if you're actually writing a shell script And put them on new lines just as you would any other command But that is working with script files in said and I hope that you enjoyed this tutorial My website is films by chris.com. That is chris with a K. There should be a link in the description Check it out I also hope that you subscribe and like this video and watch my other videos as well I put out a shell script videos on Monday every Monday, and I have other videos Currently on Wednesdays and Fridays on other topics programming computers in general And I might be adding other videos on other days if I ever get the time anyway I thank you for watching and I hope that you have a great day


It's important for all of us to recognize the significance of Stop the Sexual Exploitation of Children and Youth Awareness Week. In my 32 years with the RCMP, some of the most memorable, frustrating and heartbreaking investigations involve the abuse of children and young people. This week is a reminder that each of us, not just first responders, teachers and community leaders, but everyone, can help to prevent human trafficking and the sexual exploitation of children and youth. In the days ahead, community events, workshops and presentations throughout the province will spark conversation and help communities to identify ways to help protect our kids through better prevention, education and enforcement. There's never been a more important time to talk to our young people. In particular, they need to know how to use the internet safely and to recognize the online dangers. Our kids need to know that online friends are still strangers and they should tell a trusted adult anytime they think someone may be trying to coerce them or depress them. That said, I don't agree with the vigilanteism and the shaming approaches that some groups use. They don't protect our children. They may well put themselves in danger. They can compromise active police investigations. And remember, if you take the law into your own hands, you run the risk of being investigated for criminal offense or breaking privacy laws. In fact, the privacy commissioner is now investigating one such group. It's far better to let police conduct these kinds of investigations so they can gather the evidence needed to support any charges. In BC, we have dedicated experts like the RCMP's Integrated Child Exploitation Unit, which works with officers across Canada to stop predators. Again, I'd like to encourage you to report any circumstances that concern you to the police.


What's up everybody? JC here from jaspyscasebrakes.com. We're giving away six mixer football football mixer spots away in 2013 Bellman Sterling football one-pack break Round on teams number one.

Welcome back to Strata Live here at theCUBE, SiliconANGLE.tv's flagship telecast. We'll go out to the events and talk to the smartest people you can find, interesting people, smart people, and we extract the signal from the noise and share that with you. SiliconANGLE.com has all the coverage. SiliconANGLE.tv has all the videos on demand. This is live and we're going to talk with data scientists here. I'm John Furrier with FoundersSiliconANGLE.com and I'm joined by my co-host. I'm Dave Vellante of Wikibon.org and we're here with Jesper Anderson who's the founder, general manager of Bloom Studios. Also, as John said, a data scientist. Jesper, this is one of those deals where a picture's worth a thousand words. I mean, you just go, for people in the audience, Google Bloom Studios and check out the website. It's gorgeous. It really is. And, you know, I'm used to it. We all are, you know.  But, I mean, you know, when we prep for these calls we go to websites, we learn about products and things like that. I went to your website and went, wow, I've never really seen anything like this and I know Mark is going to bring up some examples but before we do that, why don't you tell us a little bit about Bloom Studios, where you got the idea for founding the company and what you guys are trying to do? So Bloom Studio is essentially charged with making consumer applications out of data and data visualization. So we're trying to make toys of your data that later on become tools. And the idea is that sort of visualizations mimic, the interactions with data visualizations mimic the way you interact with video games. And so that we thought we could take those mechanics and layer them on top of each other and make something that was really pleasurable to use so that you could peruse your data in a more engaging way. And so one of our iPad apps makes a galaxy metaphor for your music. And so instead of just looking at the list view of artists, whatever, you navigate down through solar systems and planets and moons to get to the actual tracks you want to play and just kind of go through an experience that's much more reminiscent of like a Mass Effect game or something like that. So is the primary motivation for using your tools just fun, it feels good, it's cathartic? Is it finding other, what's driving? So I think the first motivation is definitely pleasure. It is to make something different that's more engaging. But then visualizations support serendipitous discovery in ways that's more direct search or this views don't because you have to have declared your intention before you go to look for something. And visualizations tend to bring forth relations that didn't exist before that you wouldn't be aware of and you can discover. So by having these beautiful visualizations you're finding that people are discovering new information and new ways to interact with their data? Absolutely, that's why the field was invented in the first place. So we're just doing that more front and center. So we love rich media, we do the live broadcasts, we capture on demand, we love capturing content, we do some photos, but media's sticky, photos in particular, what are you guys finding in terms of the elements of communications? Is the user experience one kind of combinations? What are you seeing that resonates best from a visualization standpoint these days? Because we all know Facebook has a popular app called the Photo that people post in zillions of photos on Facebook. What media is resonating the most out there from your standpoint? Photos are definitely key for us. I think that it's really, there's a lot of metadata. So there's around photo applications. So there's a lot you can do to kind of expose new relationships between the data months and it is highly visual. So it's really interesting. One of the things that we're really interested in looking at next is video and seeing what we can do there. Where it's a little more complicated because there's less metadata for the amount of content available. But at the same time, we think that it's a huge problem that there is this sort of conundrum between the armchair experience and the TV experience that we want to try to bridge and we think that data visualization could make finding new snippets to watch faster and easier at a more pleasurable experience. Pinterest and Palo Alto where I live is a hot company and you got all these new kind of techniques. I guess my question I have for you is more of a philosophical one based on your experience and maybe vision around the future user experience. The web obviously evolves from static web pages too. The user experience has always been a cool area to push the envelope on. Now with Cloud Mobile, socially you have analytics, you've got data science and you have a user experience now that's have different elements to it. You have mobile, you have TV, has been connected to Netflix soon to be bundling with Comcast, all kinds of new things happening. What's your vision around the user experience and their expectations of the users? I think what we're trying to, the way we think about what we're trying to get is maybe going more to the original sort of unix like metaphors for the web and trying to think of more sharp tools and how can we combine them so that you start to think of the tablet as the moving more to HTTP and not HTML and the tablet becomes the way you view or tablet applications from the way you view the web content and then you can chain those things together in more interesting ways and get back to a sort of a tool set instead of a one-month monopolistic experience. Can we get an example? No, because we're inventing those right now. When you say unix toolkit experience, what do you mean by that? Do you mean from a developer or from a user? From a user standpoint that you might use one application to find a set of tweets, for example. And those tweets, you might want to select just the music ones and then take those music tweets and pipe them to a music application to play them in one experience or to a video application conversely or something like that or make sharing a little more direct so don't share within the application but take the data you want to share into another application and then share it from there. So there's a couple of tools that Mark, I think you have these, you can bring them up. So one is a cartogram. It's essentially a way to show public photos. You type in a place and it'll show you so I can type in Santa Clara, California. Great, we should take you to what was interesting in Santa Clara recently. And it'll show me what's happening in Santa Clara. How's it going on in Santa Clara? Santa Clara is very interesting about Santa Clara. Great America is right next door. Maybe I type in Italy or something like that and then it shows me the visualization of all this cool data. Now where's the data come from? So this is all from Instagram. And so we're using their public APIs to get as much information as you can for all the different geo points. And then we are behind the scenes doing some graph calculations to figure out what are the most important photos from there. So not just using their popularity metric but coming up with one of our own that's more about significance. Okay, and without divulging the dark secrets of your algorithm, I mean essentially what does it do for me as a user? You can really think of it very propitiously. It's page rank for photos. And basically it just takes the users who contribute the most in terms of voting and takes their votes and makes them more important. And then Fizz is a way to visualize Facebook and Twitter data. It looks like you got linked in on there as well, right? Yeah. So if we click on the Twitter, I'm gonna do something wrong. So I think he ends that. It's gonna take a little second, but I'll come through. I've got a slower connection than we probably do online. So while Dave's doing that, I want to kind of ask you around, because we think about, first of all, we love what you do. You guys are doing fantastic, but big supporters of it. Thank you. We're challenged here at SiliconANGLE and Wikibon because our goal is to provide as much content as possible in a social format and make it open source. We don't charge for any of our content. But we have a website, but we're not trying to build it as a destination. We also have video. We also have photos. We're constantly challenged around the design problems and challenges around getting away from the locked-in Walt Garden website model to something more promiscuous and frictionless, where the user experience can be better than some of the other content sites out there. What should we be thinking about? Because this is not just our problem. This is everybody, right? I mean, everyone who's in the media business has to eventually get to the folks who are natively, what I call the Apple natives and the mobile natives, like my son is 16. He doesn't read the New York Times, never will. He'll never really watch TV much other than gaming shows or anything he's interested in, maybe. So there's a whole new set of generation of users coming in that need to access content. What should be people thinking about? What should we be thinking about? I mean, I think, again, it's going back to applications that there's a richer experience there on the apps, on the iPad or on your desktop, and that the website itself is becoming a little too brittle and a little not flexible enough to do what you want to do. So once you're within the app context, then you actually re-own the experience, even though it's a micro experience, and you can start to do things there to both reward yourself and your users and create a more controlled but flexible experience, as long as you give your users a way out, which is really the angle that we want. Well, make it free, or make it available. Free the lead, not locked in. Certainly make the content shareable and findable on the web. Use the website as the way to share and what path that is actually, to do a really good job of the path application is this lockdown experience, but all the elements are on a website somewhere that you can share. So I have this other application, FizzUp. I don't know, Keen, if you were able to log in. So basically we've got these, it's basically a representation of Twitter data from 107 people, for me anyway, with 200 updates from about 50 minutes ago to about 26 seconds ago, so near real time. Yeah, near real time. And so I've got these sort of blobs and there's a huge blob in the middle, so it's at furrier, what's that all about? No kidding. Dominating my Twitter stream. And so all right, so what are we looking at here? So this is essentially that every large circle is a user and every small circle within that is a tweet that that user has sent. And so this is a way of kind of breaking free of the timeline view that sort of predominates all of the Twitter clients. Yeah, so you can kind of get back to like, maybe you took a break from God forbid from Twitter for a day or something like that and you can come back and get a cross-section of what happened, what was important and who was talking about what. And you can type the keyword in the search field, maybe you can see what was a strata activity today or something like that. Yeah, so if I do that, if I type in strata, it's going to narrow the search down to those tweets that are relevant to strata. Exactly, just those tweets. And then you can kind of see, but also the users that provided those tweets, you can get a sensor who was loud today about that, who had an opinion around that sort of topic today. So the size of these bubbles didn't really change, but the data inside the bubble's changed. Yeah, absolutely. I realize that, you know, Stevie Chambers was maybe even more active than Techie, Junkie and John Furrier was very, At Furrier was very active, et cetera. Exactly. So what kind of, so I'll get back to my questions.  Is there a technology that we and others can use? Like, are you guys selling the software? What do you guys, I mean, we need to figure out a better CMS and we're always constantly looking at what can we be programming in. And also we have a big data backend that we use. I mean, we've been really, really successful with Hadoop and HBase. Some of the things we're doing on the data science side for SiliconANGLE, Wikibon. But our web presence, it's, I want to make it better. Is there a better, we use WordPress, right? WordPress is obviously open source and cool, but I want a better C, I need better software. What can we, what is out there? So, you know, for the CMS thing, we rolled our own too. We didn't really like what was out there. But on the front end, you're seeing sort of a novel, like the growth of these novel frameworks to take advantage of what HTML5 can do and what WebGL can do. And those frameworks are starting to come into maturity in a way that actually is accessible to people. And so, Mike Bostock has some really great work first with that front of his now. Who did? Mike Bostock. Yeah. I think he had a presentation earlier this week. But, see, this is great sort of dynamic web page. Library called D3. And you can see it's something else called 3GS that's a. Mike Bostock? Bostock, yeah. Bostock. Is it square right now, I believe. And then there's another library called 3JS that sits on top of WebGL and makes that accessible to mere humans and takes care of all the boilerplate and things like that. And I think those frameworks are going to start to be the ones that become a lingual franca of the kind of next level of really interesting website. And certainly the ones we're leveraging when we build websites now. One of the things we think about is obviously iTunes and Apple, right? Tablet, huge, and Android. What's going on there? I mean, what's the market like over there from a tech perspective, from an integration as people move content into there? Is it just straight HTML5 they got to worry about for Apple or what are some of the things we're finding? We code almost exclusively in C++ for Apple in order to keep it marginally portable, though we're still not completely compatible with Android, unfortunately. As for HTML5, for our perspective, because we do a lot of dynamic, three-dimensional stuff, we're somewhat hamstrung because they haven't opened up WebGL on the WebKit browser that you can use natively, which is only, you can get that for iAds only. And so we're waiting for that before we really leverage HTML5. However, we do really enjoy to be able to create a WebKit and that's how we show Twitter content or deep content whenever we can. Yeah, what about the backhand? Obviously, what kind of big data infrastructure and software using Hadoop, HMase, Couch? We're actually exclusively on Mongo and using streaming analytics, so we try to be scale-free. Which analytics? Streaming analytics, so we calculate all the analytics on the fly and try to make it be scale-free that way. Cool, anything else? We're going to just, it's Node, MongoDB. Node.js? Node.js, yeah. We did the Node Summit. I love that community, man. I think Node is probably one of the hottest things happening right now. It's definitely where all the hipsters are at right now. It's good work coming out of there. I mean, it's not just hipsters, it's dudes pumping out some good code. Oh, absolutely. My O is great. Your background, Jesper, is that data scientists is interesting. I'm just noticing you've solved some problems in financial services, credit card fraud, home valuations and the likes. What led you to this sort of visualization? Well, I started getting more interested in consumer-facing data science and what we could do. It sort of, doing the home valuations was definitely geared towards how we'd present users without the home valuations and things like that. And confronting sort of that, as data scientists culturally, we've been so accustomed to working exclusively on a B2B level and providing actionable business metrics to users and that all of my training wasn't actually very well geared towards providing consumers with equivalent sort of services. So Bloom was sort of a good chance to kind of stretch those muscles and wrap my head around and wrap our heads around what it would do to how you would present data science to users in a more straightforward way. And it turned out to be quite different answers, we think. Upstanding. Okay, so thanks for coming on the queue. We really appreciate it, Jesper. You guys are great. Love your company. Love what you're doing. It's probably the cutting edge work that I've seen. It's needed. This is a future user experience. HTML5, all new stuff, Node.js. This is stuff that's music to our ears. We wish there was more code out there that we could work with. So we'll see you around. You guys in San Francisco? Yeah. San Francisco, obviously doing great stuff. Design is critical, but also the back ends is having that support as well. So we'll be right back with our next guest. Want to thank the...


We are back at the Karatoo warehouse. It's been a while since we've come with the camera. Yes, it's been a little bit, but we've been, you know, preoccupied actually making vlogs for the Halloween party, H.E.J. and a lot of stuff happening right now. So we decided we'd hop on over, do ourselves a little vlog and see what nifty stuff they have. Yeah, exactly. So let's go do this. It's been so long they even rearranged the place. Oh, look at that. Look at this even. Save yourself the trips to Food & Wine. You got it right here? Yeah. For only $4.99. There you go. There's your cutting board. They have a whole bunch. I don't know what you would call this. Is this like a folly or summertime? It's coldly summer. It's orange. Summertime. Ooh, reusable ice cubes, $2.99. They also have some nifty orange Mickey towels for only $7.99. And I think they're a pack of two. Pack of two? Pack of two for $7.99. Their bag game has actually grown a little bit. I don't remember ever seeing these. Look at that. Danielle Nicole, $35.99. They have two different styles too. I don't know what they resemble.

Paul Carvalho is here, he's the Vice President of North America for STG. Paolo, welcome to theCUBE. Thank you, pleasure to be here. You're obviously very excited about the changes that are going on in the industry. But there's a two-edged sword there, right? There's some good news and there's some challenges going on. So talk about what you see as these big tectonic shifts that are occurring in the industry and how IBM and your clients are responding. You know, absolutely, I think that our industry is at the moment of major dislocation, right? And we are going to have winners and losers. And when you think about all of what's happening in terms of a virtualization, adoption of software-defined environments, there's a major shift for hardware players, right? In which value is migrating, not only for the vendors, but for the clients from the hardware infrastructure, per se, into how you optimize it using software techniques. So this will certainly shake the industry. How do you see that changing, that value change, specifically changing in the next 10 years? Well, at the end of the day is how clients are assembling their IT infrastructure to go and deal with this, you know, smack world, right? Social, mobile, you know, cloud and analytics, right? And so when we talk about smart computing, which is our point of view for that, we talk about being designed for data based on software-defined environments and being open and collaborative, right? So it's, again, it's moving towards software-defined APIs and then this very important concept of openness. So how does IBM capitalize on that? And how do your clients capitalize on that? As you said, it starts with the client, right? So you need to first see not only where value is migrating, but where the customer problems are, right? And today, customer problems are around managing complexity in the environment. So attacking that complexity and helping build a flexible IT infrastructure that addresses the skyrocketing management costs is a great opportunity, right? And that's an area where you can capture value. And then back to your point of, you know, hardware as a commodity, it's very easy to say, right? But not only we all know that there are margins still in this industry, but most importantly, there's tremendous value in stack integration, right? How you then put all of these things together, right? The hardware technologies, your own software and middleware technologies and how you integrate and optimize them together.


Don Carlo, what made Evaldi so tough on you guys tonight? He was working all his pitches. He had, he was something about his heater. And when you can put 100 wherever you want it, that's going to make the off speed pitches a lot better. So yeah, he was locating well. Considering the way he had been throwing the way the Red Sox offense jumped out, did it feel like a much bigger hill hill to climb? Yeah, I mean, you never want to get down in a, in a way or go home. But yeah, if there's outs left, we got a chance. So that's, that's how you got to go into it. Were you surprised that judge was sent there on that, on that ball in the sixth? Um, no, I mean, it was bang bang had to be two relatively perfect throws to get them out.  You probably use the next question. John Carlo, we talked to your manager about how his situation will be, you know, up in the air a little bit this off season. Just what's it been like having Aaron Boone as the manager for your time here? It's been great.  So, you know, we've watched each other grow in this uniform. Um, and they've been, been through it all together. So, uh, it's been, it's been great with him. John, please unmute. Hi, John Carlo. I know you're not someone that looks back and does the shoot up would have could have, but was there any moment where you guys think that, you know, if you had won maybe one more game, you would have been hosting this game at home.  For sure.  Um, by understanding, um, that each game counts. It don't matter if it's in, in freaking March, April. Um, all we needed was one more. We would have this, uh, this at home. So, um, yeah, they'll come back to bite you. And just real quick, uh, Aaron Boone tells us that he had a nice message about the group of guys that he's been competing with this season. Um, how was it? How did you receive that message from Boone? And what was special of anything that he said tonight? Uh, yeah, I mean, that's just a tough, uh, tough spot for all of us and just, you know, words of encouragement and word, um, uh, ideas, uh, to improve and what we need to do to, to make this next step and, and, uh, go from there.
