After you eat a family size bag of chips or an entire foot long from Subway, you may feel pretty big. But I'm sure to tell you, thankfully, you're nowhere near the size of some of the largest objects in our universe. But if you're not, what is? Before I roll the intro, I just wanted to let you guys know that this video is part of a collab with Zap Physics. After you find out about the largest objects in our universe, make sure to jump over to his channel and check out the smallest. Be sure to let us know what you think of the video down in the comments section below. Politics really help us smaller channels, and let's jump in. Mankind has built some truly impressive things. The Empire State Building, the Sydney Opera House, the Three Gorgeous Dam, my faith that maybe the next Fast and Furious movie won't suck. All true marvels of engineering and willpower. But even these massive feats pale in comparison to what the natural world can put together. Mankind's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, tops out at just over 2,700 feet, but you could stack two and a half of them within the Grand Canyon. And Mankind's largest building is Boeing's Everett Factory, the production site for the Boeing 747 family. The building, basically one enormous hangar, has over 13 million cubic meters of space, bigger than 5,000 Olympic swimming pools, seven MetLife stadiums, and the surprisingly spacious Ford Fiesta. But even this colossal factory wouldn't even fill up a tenth of the Chicksalube asteroid crater that helped wipe out the dinosaurs. So why limit ourselves to the only rock we've called home? The solar system is home to some pretty impressive feats. The tallest point you could stand on Earth would be atop Mount Everest. And nearly 5 and a half miles above our surface, you'd need several layers and oxygen tanks just to survive a few minutes. But on Mars, thanks to a lack of tectonic plates and no molten planet core, Olympus Mons tops out 16 miles above the surface of the Red Planet, and covers an area nearly the size of France, making it the biggest mountain in our solar system. Now, getting even bigger, if I asked you what you thought the largest object in our solar system was, you'd probably say the sun. Go ahead, I'll give you a few seconds to try to think of something more massive. If you stuck with the sun, we couldn't really blame you. After all, it's what those posters on the walls of our fifth grade classrooms taught us to believe, and it's certainly a better guess than Pluto. The largest thing in our solar system isn't the sun, but something that comes from it. Coronal mass ejections are a release of plasma from the surface of the sun, and they can reach crazy sizes. They expand as they propagate away from the sun, and can grow to nearly a quarter of the space between Earth and the sun. In what would become known as the Carrington Event, in 1859, a coronal ejection caused by a solar storm reached more than 94 million miles, hitting Earth and causing the largest geomagnetic storm on record. Let's just say things got pretty wild. Well, as wild as the 1850s could get. All over the northern hemisphere, colorful auroras danced across the night skies, reaching as far south as Mexico. That night, telegraph communications around the world began to fail. There were reports of sparks showering from telegraph machines, shocking operators, and sending papers ablaze, and some telegraph operators could continue to send messages even after disconnecting their power supplies. According to the Lloyds of London, if a similar solar storm hit the planet today, it would cause more than 2 trillion in damage to the US electrical grid. We moved beyond our solar system, and now we're really talking the biggest of the big. At the center of our galaxy sits the supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A. At 4.1 million solar masses, or 4.1 million times larger than our sun, it's the most massive object in our galaxy. But as far as black holes go, ours is near the runt of the litter. 53 million miles away lies the Chad of all black holes, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Mesa 87 galaxy. It's 6.4 billion times the mass of our sun, and would stretch across our entire solar system.  But the biggest of the big is yet to come. At approximately 10 billion light years across its longest length, the Hercules Corona Borealis Great Wall, also known as the Great GRB Wall, stretches across 10% of the observable universe. For comparison, our Milky Way galaxy only spans some 100,000 light years. Discovered in 2013, the Great GRB Wall is a massive superstructure of gas, dust and dark matter containing billions of galaxies and more than twice the size of the previous largest known object, the huge Large Quasar Group. Now you may be wondering, if this Great Wall contains billions of galaxies, why does it count as one big thing, and not a bunch of smaller, but still massive things? By that logic, couldn't you just arbitrarily add more and more galaxies together to get an even bigger object? Well, you're not wrong. But what makes the Great GRB Wall unique is that this supercluster is home to a group of tightly packed Gamma Ray Burst sources in much higher abundance than we see in the normal background of space. And it's separated spatially from everything around it. Gamma rays are the most powerful type of radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum. This super high frequency radiation is emanated only in a handful of stellar events, like supernova collisions of neutron stars, or by especially fast spinning black holes. The structure is even so large, it seems to contradict our theories about the evolution of the universe. The structure is 10 billion light years away, which means that we're seeing what it looked like 10 billion years in the past. And since the universe is 13.8 billion years old, give or take, this means that this massive structure had to form in the first four billion years of the universe.  Even Istvan Horvath, the man who discovered the Great GRB Wall, says he has no idea how the structure could have formed in that amount of time. So why exactly does this Great GRB Wall not seem to fit into our theories? I'm here from Zap Physics to try to explain a little bit more about this question. It all comes down to what's known as the cosmological principle. The basic idea of the cosmological principle is that the universe should look the same no matter where you are or which direction you look. Now, I know what you're thinking. This can't be true since we see different stars, planets, and galaxies all around us. The caveat to the cosmological principle is that it is only expected to be true above some very large length scale. This is due to the fact that we expect the universe to have been very small right after the Big Bang. During this time, quantum fluctuations created tiny spots of non-uniformity. Then the universe went through a period of rapid inflation, stretching these small fluctuations into the galaxies and clusters we see today. However, if the cosmological principle is correct, these fluctuations and thus the corresponding large scale structures shouldn't be too large. The Great GRB Wall is about 10 times the most well-accepted theoretical predictions, and so it seems to contradict the cosmological principle. But this isn't the end of the story. Quantum mechanics is inherently probabilistic, meaning that there would be some chance that a larger than expected fluctuation that would result in something like the Great GRB Wall could occur. However, this likelihood goes down the larger the object is and the more of them there are. So whether or not the Great GRB Wall is actually compatible with the cosmological principle and the theories of inflation still remains an open question. For now, the largest structure in the universe may just be its greatest mystery. Like I said at the start, this video was done in collaboration with ZAP Physics, a channel about, you guessed it, physics. It's a great channel, and this is my first collab, so I'd highly recommend checking out this video here on the smallest object in the universe. Have a great day, and remember, there is always more to learn.


It's kind of weirdly spelled, but that's how that's the pronunciation. It's all I give myself. I'm a senior manager of quality engineering at Red Hat for the last six plus years almost seven years now I've been building quality engineering teams to responsible for testing and automating tests for several different Products at Red Hat. You can see some of them listed here such as Red Hat Satellite pole project, which is an upstream project Ansible Tower and I would like to talk to you today about doing web UI automation specifically using Selenium and Python. You'll probably notice that the I don't have a slide So I'm actually using a web page to show you the data. There's a reason why I chose to do that and not actually have slides for one thing You can follow along so you can either clone the git repository that's right there on the site You can visit that page, which is devconf USA18.readthedocs.io And the reason why I decided to do this is because devconf the whole idea about devconf is about open source, right? So sharing really trying to collaborate with other people So a couple of things that you get out of if you were to clone this git repository for one thing You're gonna have all the sort of the source code for the document itself I know that sometimes people have to write documents and they want to use maybe something that is easy for you to Script against a write code. So restructured text is what I've used here It's it can be a little bit daunting and scary to write anything using restructured text So if anything if you don't want to do any of anything related to automation You don't want to know about Python or anything at least you can use this to say well This is how you build a document with images and tables and links and that stuff so I'm hoping that you will though want to do automation and want to use Python and Selenium But this is one of the things you can get out of The other thing that I want to also point out is that I am going to try to cover as much as I can in about 30 minutes There's a lot to unpack. So I'll do my best But once again if you clone this repository if you just bookmark this page You will actually get access to all the configuration files that I'm using here I'm going to show you how to automate stuff using Python I'm going to show you how to use py test and Then I am actually also going to show you how to plug it all in into a continuous integration continuous delivery environment So what's in this whole thing for you? Why am I taking so much time or the 30 minutes that I have to talk about this is that I interview people a lot For jobs and a lot of times they don't have they they come in and they say well I've done this I read this or I studied this in college But I don't have anything to show for if you take this and you start modifying it at least you have some kind of Portfolio that you can bring into your interviews and say I know how to write tests. I know how to use py test I know how to use continuous integration So I think that you know ultimately you could use this to hopefully get your next position or you know at least to brush up on your skills right now and True sense of true spirit of open source what I do ask is that if you make any Changes and if you make any improvements, please send me a patch. I will apply it I will give you credit for it and then you can help me improve the document for anyone else who wants to use it Okay, so there's a lot like I said that I want to unpack here But when we talk about web UI automation your job as a Quality engineer or as a tester is to actually try to identify the things there are the elements that are on the web page So that you can interact with it and I'm not gonna lie to you web UI automation is a pain a but it's it's hard Especially I would say that writing good robust web UI test is really hard to do that Because you have to I'm gonna show you this little picture here. This is a a dumb object you can think of a web page as a Two ways that you can interact with a web page You can look at the source code for it, which is the HTML or you can think of it as a tree Representation where you have this dumb object and you can see that you have the top node That represents the entire web page that you're working on and then for each node that you see here It either represents a section of the page or an element that you want to interact with So why is it such a pain to to actually do web UI automation is that a lot of times? designers and the developers that will change the look and feel of the page and Depending on how you choose. I'm gonna show you some of the schemes some strategies for you to identify the elements here Depending which strategy you choose if you're relying on an element to be on this node here So it's like two nodes deep what three nodes deep and you build your strategy around something called expath If that element moves to another node, then your code is broken The expath expression that you're gonna write is just is completely useless, right? So you have you find yourself Continuously having to rewrite your expression is your strategy the other thing that is also I Guess I should point out. It's not really Maybe it may not be obvious But the whole point is you want to automate and computers are much faster than the human beings So a lot of times when you work on a web page people put like a lot of you know Ajax see things and there's a bunch of JavaScript Frameworks that people are using there. So sometimes you have to say, you know when you're devising your test I'm gonna click on something something is going to happen I need to make sure that my code is smart enough to wait for that one thing that I'm expecting to happen So it's really an art. It's a pain about so my advice is that try to keep it to you know Keep your tasks UI automation as few as possible make them robust make them cover As much ground as you can to like for integration tests Unless your job is actually to do web UI automation, I guess at that point you don't have much of a choice But you can the way they integrate to interact with the elements and the elements like buttons menus images and whatnot is to Find a locator and if you are here earlier for Anisha's talk She was talking about how you can look at the source code for example of a web page And this is the you know Google's search box there I am highlighting the the specifically the search box because in there I can look at information that I can use Right now. It's what I have highlighted here is the ID of the box Which is LST dash IB and that's going to be something that I'm going to be using for for the demo here So you can search for things by text, which is what I recommend then you can search for things by There's CSS IDs or CSS values, and that's that the list that I have here and tag names the HTML tag names I Put XPath as the last option here because I'm trying to encourage people not to use it and the reason why is you know for one thing It's pretty fragile if things move around then your XPath changes and then you break a test But some XPath expressions are evil. They're really really hard to understand So like this example here because I don't have a good way to get a hold of the element that I want I need to find an element and then walk backwards To find the one that I wanted because there was no clear way direct way for me to get to the element that I wanted to To get to so that's my advice so Selenium is the Framework that a lot of people use so Anisha talked about Protector and Jasmine earlier today But Selenium is the one that I'm really used to and I think it seems to predominate around like people who are doing Wabio automation But it works on it works on different platforms. It's open source, which is pretty cool And it also has a bindings for several different programming languages we're going to be talking about Python today, but it does offer bindings for other languages and You require what you do is you install the Selenium Application the framework itself the for your system and then it provides you with a Domain specific language that gives you helper methods to interact with the web elements So it lets you click on things select things scroll through the web page Really control like the elements of the web page And in addition to Selenium you need something called a web driver Which lets you interface with the with an actual browser. Okay, so Firefox Chrome Microsoft Edge Safari or anything like that. So you need the combination those two to actually do web UI automation One easy way that used to be really nice tool and still there is but this change a little bit It's Selenium ID and it's an add-on that you install on your on your browser The old version was in my opinion was a little bit easier. It provided a little more value But it was a pain to install it required an older version of Firefox The one of the advantages of it is that the Selenium ID lets you record your interaction So you you turn it on and you start clicking away and and typing stuff and moving things around the web UI It records every step of the way everything that you've done and then when you're done You can just replay it and you could literally say this is my automation though I wouldn't go as far to say that that's automation, but but you could literally do that, right? So The other advantage that the old version of the Selenium ID had it was that it let you Export things Into different languages so all the actions use the language the domain specific language click select go get stuff like that But then he translated that into Python so now you're really closer to having full automation because you could just use this thing and Then record it export it and had your Python code and then you were done The new version, which is what you're seeing on the right hand side of the screen there It actually there are good things about it in the bad things the good things is that it's a hole It's really easy to install so if you have the latest version of Firefox or now it supports Chrome so what whichever browser you have you can just install it through the add-ons page and That's nothing else for you to do. So that's pretty cool The bad things about the new version is that they removed all the bells and whistles that they had and one of them is not being Able to export to Python so that kind of stinks But what I want to show you here is that you know just to give an idea what web UI automation really is all about so I'm gonna hit the record button here and Now I'm just going to give you an example of going to Google Com and then I'm gonna click here on the search box on the right hand side You can see that there are some two steps two commands were executed and recorded. There's an open slash Slash is the root address that I typed right here So Google.com it says that I clicked at something that has an ID equals to LST dash IB If you remember the screen the screenshot that I showed before that's the Google search box now I am going to you know type some text. I'm gonna I'm gonna search for Red Hat And then I'm going to hit the search button and It performed the search right all the steps were recorded on the right hand side So if I stop recording now, I can change the speed Let me make because this goes really fast and it goes back to what I said about computers being really fast But I can replay this and what you should see now is that it's going to open Google It's going to type red hat on the search box It's going to hit the Google search button and you know, it's it's going to display the list So I'm running really slowly here for you guys to see it right all the steps of the way But this is I guess an example do I automation? right, so it's too bad that the new version of the ID has changed, but I highly recommend it to play around see see if you like it. It gives you good ideas As you recall as you are recording your actions, you can actually right click on the browser and he adds a Extra menu option that gives you things for example You want to say, you know verify that a certain Text is present verify there a certain field is present before you move on to the next thing or assert that the thing That I'm looking for is there so you can see all of that exposed through the the interface So trying to move really quickly here Selenium ID is a really nice tool I hope that you read through the web page and there's some points there to talk about advantages and disadvantages of it Soroko is another one. It's the same exact thing does the same exact thing as Selenium ID, but it's for Chrome only it doesn't really Give you the same I guess the same experience Selenium ID does but it's still there now the Selenium ID supports Chrome I would recommend you to use Selenium ID just to play around But the real magic happens when you start automating things using Python or some other programming language, right? Because now we have really full control over it and the idea here is as I mentioned earlier You want to use the Selenium module? It expose a lot of different methods and these in my opinion They're very intuitive because the name of the method tells you exactly what you're trying to accomplish So find element by ID find element by X path and then you know It should be very intuitive what you're what you're attempting to do and I would say that most methods are named in such a Way that are very easy to follow along Right so you can see for example here some fragments of HTML and this is the this box here in the bottom You can see this is how you would use Selenium to access something by ID something by the class name something by you know tag name And so and so forth so it's pretty straight forward to install this to get it running All you have to do is it install Selenium however you get your your Python packages nowadays, right? And then you want to install the web driver for the specific browser that you want to interact with control I'm going to recommend Google Chrome only because Firefox requires something called a gecko driver and Firefox has been churning out newer versions of of itself Quicker than the gecko driver guys can actually update their drivers So your experience is not going to be that great So I highly recommend go with Chrome and you're gonna be pretty safe right if you're on a Mac You can just brew cask install Chrome driver But if you're on Linux just you know I guess yum install DNF install or whatever it is the package that you use the package manage system they use Here's something cool that I really liked about also using Python and Selenium is as you start doing UI automation You probably don't know what to do You probably don't know like what am I what strategy am I going to use here? Right? I don't even know what I'm trying to find So I have an example here that is basically going to do two things one and if you were to run this in Python It's gonna be really quick, but It's going to basically open Google Dot com it's going to assert that the title of the page says Google and then what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna open Google again, and now I'm gonna modify Google's logo I'm going to inject my own images in there so this shows you that you can interact with the browser elements and It also shows that you have a really powerful way to really inject anything to the page. So and it's really really powerful This screen here shows on the bottom. You have the code that I just showed you I added a breakpoint So if you were to when you If you are to clone my repository just mind that I'm using Python 3.7 So breakpoint is something that it's only available in the Python 3.7 There are other ways to we serve breakpoints This breakpoint would not be found on the source code So you're not gonna have any trouble, but if you want to follow along if you're watching the video later on Just be aware the breakpoint works only in 3.7.  I'm using something called I Python and And Because of the breakpoint you can see that I am at the line that says to start Google Chrome It says browser equals web driver Chrome So I'm just going to walk through it and the reason why I want to do is because I want to show you how You can interact and why this is a useful idea Because if you are starting out doing web UI It's a good idea for you to be able to interact with it and not have to write a script run it fail Try it again fail again run it right You don't want to do that. So you can actually do this really Interactively and slowly so we're just gonna hit the next thing. So here is opening Google and Then I am actually doing a couple of things. I am going to find the element So I'm using element equals browser dot find element by ID I'm past the search box ID to it and then because I am in the testing business I want to make sure that I got my element back and that's what the assert there is for it says Please make sure that I found the thing that I want to interact with If you don't find the thing that you're trying to interact with then you won't be able to do anything with it Right, so that's the whole idea. So now, you know, we're going to type You know red hat into the search box. It's going to Perform the search and that's the end of that that part of the code. I'm going to browse to Google again. I Am going to now I'm going to make sure that I got my box And now is where the fun begins because I'm going to inject some code and that's me That's my picture. I just replaced it. It looks squashed. So I'm going to Change it so that it looks a little bit better, right? But that's a little whole idea so interact with it if you had more elements here So you want to say you want to search that you know the about link works So you could actually do it right here test it When you got to the point where you think that you got everything that you needed then write the code You got your script right so that's the whole idea the last thing that you probably want to remember is that you want to quit You want to close your browser right so that it doesn't just especially if you're running this locally Which I wouldn't recommend for a real scenario. You don't want to have like a million web browsers open on your on your system Right, so that's the whole idea of using Python and Selenium But you don't want to sit there and type all this stuff you want to automate it and that's where we start talking about using Python to write Your tests the idea here is that you don't want to sit around and type stuff You want to be able to have something that can be run as acute at any time you want as many times as you want Especially I would recommend that you want to do it through some kind of continuous integration environment, right? And what I have here is that you know because we already have all the We have Selenium installed we have a web drive installed what I have here is what is referred to as unit test Python unit tests like test it relies on Python's built-in unit test module and the idea here is that you create a class for every it's a Python class For every test that you want to run right so like a test suite I'm going to speed up really quickly because I got my ten minute there But basically you can see a couple things I want to highlight There's a setup here which takes care of creating the browser instance And then there's a cleanup method which takes care of closing your browser So that's going to be very important. This is also referred to as a fixture for your test And that's something that you want to happen every time you run a test There's some a little there's more control over this so you can have this happen for every test It could be for the entire module. It could be for the class for the class itself so there's some ways that you can control but the interesting thing here is that That the first line that line 11 line 12 takes care of creating the browser for you and closing it up And then the rest of the code now is just basically please open Google and assert things for me Right so make sure that the first test make sure that the title is present The next one is I'm going to type red hat in the search box And then I want to make sure the red hat shows up in the in the title of the window itself So this is the the whole idea Because we're you know, I don't have a lot of a lot of time I have the actual code here.  Okay? So that's Python unit as style, but if you really want to learn The coolest thing the newest technology out there if you really want to impress people and say hey I want to work as an automation person a tester of Python bless you So I would recommend that you look into PyTest and PyTest has a lot of really cool features I'm not gonna go through it right now because I don't have the time But I will highlight that there are plugins which are really really cool And then you have fixtures which have really like fine grain control you can really tell like You know give it a name and you can specify when do you want the fixture to be applied? What should it happen when what should happen when you use the fixture? There's some cool things called parametrize which lets you do pass the data to your test So you write test once and you change the data value and then he gives you the you know the The different variations of the tests right so what I'm gonna do here I'm gonna show you is I am installing a plugin called Python Selenium And the reason why I chose to put that in here is because when you install Python Selenium like this If you remember that the previous code I had to create my own setup And I had to say please make sure to create my browser and then please shut it down This plug-in automatically gives you that fixture for free for all of your tests right so the way that you tell your test which driver which I guess browser you want to use is by specifying the command line So you say that's that's driver Chrome and if you look at the code above there's no setup There's no tear down. I just wrote my test using just plain Python There's no magic here, but they're the magic. I guess there is is this Selenium Object here right there's this argument that's being passed to it and this is the fixture that you get for free There's no declaration. You don't need to import anything. It's automatically available for you, right? So I think this is really really really cool Some other plug-in that I have here Is X this and this allows you to imagine that you have like a thousand tests You don't want to run your test sequentially unless you have to you want parallelize it right you want to get your test really quickly So by installing this Python dash X this you can pass the and flag and then you can specify if you just pass pass dash and auto I think you will figure out how many cores are available in your system and then we'll figure out like how many threads I'm gonna spin up and I'm gonna split your tests Execute them in parallel and then return all the test results back to you, right? So that's really really powerful here, and that's why I wanted to show you that you definitely want to play with with this plug-in Then what I want to show you is that the next thing that I want to show you is there's something called sauce labs I'm gonna try to get back to it because I want to if I run out of time At least I want to get to the continuous integration part and if I have time I'll come back and I'll talk about sauce if I don't have time then if you want to ask me about sauce labs Just about ping me on you know outside of the room, and I'll let you know but the final I guess piece of Of this presentation is about CI So what's the use of you having written like a thousand automated tests? And they're just sitting there and it requires someone to automatically going there and and run something or click on something But so the idea here is that you don't want to be bothered, right? You'll want to be drinking you want to drink your coffee you want to you know check the news online while your tests are being Executed that's really the truth. You don't want to be bothered with by anyone. So get lab is just one free Service out there. It's completely free. Okay, that will give you a CI CB so it's continue continues integration continues delivery Process environment that it's completely free and what I have here when you look at the source code for this repository You will see that there's a file called dot get lab dash CI that Yemo and what I've done here Really to show what you can do the power of CI is that I created three stages and These are the things that must be executed in a certain order and for each stage that I have here What I'm doing is I have different jobs that will be executed right so I have a generate docs I have a test pie test and I have test sauce labs and then you know for each stage for each job I have all the commands everything that I that I need to happen here But the coolest thing is this so I'm some of these tests Will require running my automated tests the ones that I showed you before running on Chrome or running on Firefox I don't want to run this on my system So using get lab pipelines what he does is he uses a Docker rise and I hope you know I don't know if you know if how many of you are familiar with Docker But you know talking about containers of virtualization, right? So what he does is it will spin up a Dockerized Firefox and Chrome for you and your test will be executed against it So there's no infrastructure that you've required on your end, right? So that's really really powerful that you have I think that a picture will probably be a better way to represent here But this is what if you go to get labs and you look at the CI pipeline page You'll see that the three stages So what happens here is that this document that I'm using for this presentation is generated There are some steps involved in the job So I do some linting which means I want to make sure that the restructure text Syntax that I'm using is properly formatted and if it's not the job fails I don't get my document. There's no new version of the document for me, right? But what I do is I generate the document and assume me the document is actually finished and has no issues It gets published to read the docs, which is that site that you see over there on the URL address bar And then once that is done, I run my tests in parallel, right? So I run my tests on Chrome. I run my tests on Firefox and Assuming that these run then I run my tests on sauce labs. How many more minutes do I have? You got three Sweets, all right, so let me go back to sauce labs. So what is sauce labs? First of all, I work for red hat. I don't work for sauce labs. So I make no money out of this I just want to make sure But I really we use it internally and the hope the whole point of using sauce labs is that you Don't want to host your own infrastructure. What if you are in the business of testing web UI? Applications for phones for devices, right? Or you have you have a requirement You have to support Microsoft, right? Are you going to have a windows box laying around and install everything and maintain it and keep updating whenever new versions of Of the browser come out. I don't think you want to do that You could but I wouldn't recommend it. So using the same exact things that I was using before So using PyTask using Python using Python Selenium plugin What I can do here is I can create my matrix of support and that's what you see here So I have Chrome running on the Mac a specific version of the Mac I have Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge. I have Firefox and Linux. I have Safari on the Mac And that's some magic here also that you will see that when you run the test itself It does some really cool things and it gives it gives like specific names for the the job so that you know you know like I Got a little ahead of myself. Here's the test, right? So I only have two tests. My matrix has four different elements So the outcome is that these two tests would be executed against those browser operating system combinations Right, so it would be a total of eight tests automated in the end for you The way the PyTask works and when you use the x-disk plugin is that the name of the tests are not gonna be it's gonna be all Garbage you're not gonna be able to tell which which is which so there's some really cool examples here on this File that I that I have here on the on the repository that shows you how you can override the ID So you can give it a like a name that makes a little more sense So you can see for example that I'm running a test called tasks on the score page title on Chrome Then the same one on Microsoft Edge, right? So You know it is really cool to use SOS labs because you using their Infrastructure, you're not pay well you pay for it But you're not paying for the in terms of the you know like the sense of you have to maintain it Right because that week that's time and money and people that requires and then SOS labs also let you You can actually watch the video of the of the test the recording of it, right? So you can look that's what you're seeing here on the screen For example, I actually have 50 VMs available to to the projects that I work on so I can have my tests running 50 Testing parallel, which is pretty powerful thing to have to right so I've been told that that's the end of my Presentation so that won't you know time for questions five minutes for question. All right, cool So I hope this was useful like I said, please if you if you clone the repository if you make any improvements If you have any feedback, please let me know At the end of the schedule for that conf you find a nice little link that says hey vote for this presentation Tell all you how awesome it was so please do that Because then they will invite me back and I'll love to be back next year here. So With that, I'll take any questions from anyone anyone Yes Correct so the question I've been doing that in Java Using the third safe thing, but I don't know whether there is some utility in Python for that Yeah, I mean I would say that I believe that the plug-in will Handle that the question was running tests in parallel being thread safe, right? I believe that the plug-in will handle all that for you But I think the other factor that is important for you to keep in mind is that if you have a specific setup or tear down Let's just say for example the your tests require a database, right? So you don't want your tests Relying on the same database if they're going to be changing the data So that's something that you're gonna have to to handle also so not just being thread safe But also the the content that you're gonna use You're welcome Yes question Is there like a repo of any like standard sample tests? I may have missed it That's a good question So Yes, there is but is it wouldn't be intuitive because for example I'm gonna put a link here, and I hope that you have time to to jot it down but for example, I work I work at Red Hat and We actually have all of our tests are fully open sourced Okay, so you can actually go if you look on github Com and you look for satellite QE Under satellite QE you're gonna find all the repositories everything that we that we write for the automation that we Execute at Red Hat Robotello is something that I wrote 2011 it's still being around but when you go to Robotello and then you look under the tests folder There then there's some a couple of different folders, but this one over here You can see for example, like how do I do API tests? How do I do CLI tests? So yes, there's there are many Repositories out there, but I don't think that there's anything that is like the definite source of truth for that So you have to look around so you can look at this And you know feel free to ping me email me and I'll point you to something interesting You're welcome One more question perhaps anyone I'm preventing you from getting lunch. Yes You mentioned that the documentation is You mentioned that the documentation is autumn with the change of tests How do you like for your stakeholders and just for legacy like referring to how do you look at the history? like is there a way to Like what does that look like? Yeah, so I mean this specific document wouldn't I guess it wouldn't Match I guess the the scenario that you put it out because this is just for an example But I would say that you know what you have to do is Anyone who would like to see what the changes were in you go to either get hub or in this case You go to get lab and then you can look at the at the repository you can look at all the commits So this is where we're gonna see the history of the changes that went in Right, and if you if in the business of writing documents, right? So then you probably submit your your changes and have someone review them before they get merged So they'll have a review process before anything happens, right? So the pipeline is executed every time there's code changes here All right, all right cool. Thank you very much for your time. Appreciate it. Thank you


So this is truly a very unique journey that we are going on. Most people have never heard about high-pointing before, and they probably never will throughout their lifetime. But there are some things that you come across that are just too good not to share. Well, pony! And so you re-art. I found out that there's a whole organization devoted to high-pointing. I mean, who knows? We have, you know, just a casual hiker, and we have experienced mountaineers, and we have some that just come from low income and some that have more money than they know what to do with it. Many of the high points you can drive to, or they're very short hikes, you don't have to be a super athlete to do them.  But yet, you know, it is a high point. It's one you have to get. We found out through some friends in the High Pointers organization that there was a mother-daughter team that wanted to be the first to climb the lower 48 states. Turns out that the only peak they don't have is Gannett Peak in Wyoming. It's probably the hardest of the lower 48 to climb. I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia January of 2013. I do have to get surgery next year, so it's kind of putting our nose to the grindstone this year trying to get Gannett Peak done. My stomach was churning as we were packing up. We knew this was going to be a difficult climb, but we wouldn't have sent our daughter on if we didn't think she could do it. It's never clear if we're going to reach the top. It just never is. We came around one bend, and there it was in all of its glory right in front of us. We're crossing through boulder fields that one slip can break a leg, sprain an ankle, dislocate a shoulder.  There's always ways you can try everything possible until the end to make your dreams happen.


Hey guys shave every 1000 here, and this is another short episode of flea market finds What's in the box? Stay tuned. Let's find out. Okay guys. We're back First thing I wanted to show you. I don't know if you can see this or not See that Yeah, I broke my new phone Crack the screen. I had it in my pocket. I think either my key or my lighter did that So I don't know guys. I do have Insurance on it, but of course guess what I'm paying seven dollars a month for insurance, but To replace that phone is going to cost me seventy five dollars The phone itself is only a hundred and fifty and they're and they're talking well That's just a fraction of the price defined fraction I could see paying fifteen twenty dollar deductible, but Fifty percent. I mean my last one did everything this one does and it was only a hundred dollars So it looks like they're going to snag me for another phone It's a matter of principle. That's not insurance. That's just price gouging Either way, anyhow guys Flea market finds here first, you know, I got me some, you know, I do a lot of cooking for monkey and stuff I love to cook so I got me You know some cloves of garlic here one two three four five in there So they were only a buck.  So maybe that means I might be able to do a Get some gadgets to do For garlic mints and garlic and stuff like that. Who knows we'll see but anyway, what's in the box guys? Let's see here Turn you up there a little bit. I can't see the screen Okay, but anyhow guys, maybe we'll have to take it back. Whoops back down here Okay, right there. All right, I got this. I was looking at something that is in this box Okay Let's open the box up Opened it up upside down. Here's what we got We got a flask here Now it wasn't too much interesting the flask it is it's very it's very very cool though It does say American Trucker on it.  It's stainless steel. So what the heck, right? So anyway, it's just neat to have Needs cleaned up who cares about that because what I was really interested in was the lighter so I was looking at it and The lighter is pretty cool It is I can't read what kind it is I'm not sure of the name brand Too much light glaring off of it's so shiny It's got a big number on it I'm not sure but I like the you know the Zippo style lighters So, you know, I got it for that because I thought it was cool and my lighters anything I buy like this I will use and It also says born to be free right over top of the semi and there's an eagle on it and it's got same logo I was looking at that. I said look any of this one. This one's got lighter with the guy says $2 for that. He said they'll clean up. They got you know oil on them Which they will Like I said, I really wouldn't care much about the flask. I said $2. He said yeah for the flask in that in the box Two bucks. It says the guy's got a bunch of them, you know in stock. He's just you know trying to get people deals So yeah, it's a cheapo lighter, but you know who cares right for $2. Let's see. What is it? it's an SUGR stick, I don't know. I'd have to look at a little better But I mean I'm sure it's gonna be worth two bucks, you know what the hell right so anyway So that's first thing I only got two things now monkey got three three sun dresses for 20 bucks Well, it's 18 and that's the you know, it's made in China. So it's just cheap thing But still $2. I like lighters that monkey got a three dresses for 18 bucks It's hard as they just said 20 because of tax, but and she liked them one of them is real pretty It's like a tie-dyed red white and blue cover very nice. Well, they're all pretty but Here's a nasty on TV product, which We're gonna get to I'm gonna do a review. So the next video you'll see after this one will be a review of this It's a dash cam dash cam pro. You know these things. I don't know. It's a scene on TV Look how small that screen is and it's you know, like it says here. This is a night mode Well, that's not night vision guys. That's just these it just lights up. That's it. So Anyway, it's recorded because I'm monkey. She sees a lot of weird stuff a lot of accidents and stuff because she's always on the road and and So, you know, I thought what the heck 20 bucks? Let's give it a shot and it'll give me a couple videos to make so the next video will be done on This camera right here. So it's an as seen on TV product Which I have a couple more of them to do as well But so it's pretty cool. It's supposed to come with everything. It will hold a 32 gig memory card Which we have bought right over there So we're just we're gonna see Let's see what it's all about. So next video we will do and I'll tell you what I will do an unboxing on it and Then then you know, I'll Cut to a clip of trying this out You know set it up in the truck or something and we'll see what it looks like. It's maybe Drive around a block or something. I'll take a truck around a block or something and we'll see You know It's got a mode where you know when you start your vehicle. It'll come on it will record 12 or 14 hours continuous So, you know, it'll just keep recording over and over again until you find something that you want Then you take the memory card out or whatnot You know import it on your computer, whatever cloud, whatever you do I just always import them on the PC and Go from there, but it'll if you know nothing happens. It just keeps recording. So that's cool You don't have to remember to hit record and all that it just Recording so that's gonna be cool. So awesome. So I'm gonna get off of here But those are two and today Saturday the 14th 456 So I'm gonna get these videos up tonight at least these two so When I say tomorrow it's gonna be Sunday tomorrow morning We're we're gonna go to another big flea market that we really like it's over in Leesburg, Florida So we're gonna go there. They have a lot of more like outside stuff Like this place we went to is nice and it's huge But that they mostly have new stuff, you know all the vendors stuff There are some stuff outside that that people will you know that are selling used Stuff like I would be interested in I'll call it junk or rusty gold, you know Whatever stuff I like but there wasn't too many outside today because it's so hot So maybe tomorrow at the better one we can find something to put that little bricks and stratton engine on Something from that era and see but so we're going there tomorrow, but I'm sure we'll find something to buy and There'll be another one up tomorrow night. Hopefully or Monday, whatever, but anyway, so let's um, it's quick chat here I'm gonna get off here, and I'm gonna do an unboxing and I'll put the memory cord in we'll take it out the truck and we'll try it out, okay guys So that means every member she bear the myth man the legend. I'm gone for now guys. Thanks for watching. Have a good one Bye bye now


Hello, and welcome to the session titled Converting User Problems into Solutions. My name is Kevin and I'll be your host for this session. A few words about me. I'm originally from Australia and I now live in Norway. I've been lucky enough to work all over the world throughout my career and that really helped shape both the person and the product manager that I became as I was exposed to many different cultures. Day-to-day, I had a small product team within Microsoft that sets direction for our data platforms and they're dedicated to people and how they're represented in Microsoft products. Outside of work, I spend a lot of my spare time coaching and in particular goalkeepers for football or soccer, depending on which part of the world you're listening in from. I also mentor and invest in a handful of companies to keep touch with the tech world outside of Microsoft. So even though this session will really only scratch the surface on these topics, I hope it will equip you with some new insights and ideas that you can use in your own work as product managers. We'll cover the problem with the problem and why the biggest challenge is often not the one you think you're solving. We'll discuss some tips and tricks for keeping focus on human needs, including a quick introduction to what we mean by that term. And then we'll round out the discussion with some tips, tricks, and advice when it comes to delivering solutions that will make you proud of your product. So what is the problem with problems? Hopefully, most of you have seen or heard of the Galaxy Note phone or Fabulate as it was originally named. It was one of the first, if not the first, large screen mobile devices that was released maybe seven or eight years ago. And it got a lot of attention at the time for the form factor in particular. But can you guess the problem the largest screen was actually solving? Perhaps a very non-obvious answer, but the key driver for the largest screen wasn't because it was trendy or cool to have the largest screen, nor was it a practical thing like looking at content on YouTube or one of these other streaming services. Rather, the problem itself that it addressed was users who had long fingernails found it very difficult to type on smaller touchscreen keyboards. By increasing the screen size, the keys could be spaced further apart, making it easier for those users to use the device. Now let's look at another example. This one is perhaps a little more obvious to everyone, but let's see. One of the most coveted seats on an airplane historically is a window seat, especially when you're flying over some terrain like the Swiss Alps or the French Alps. Using the same approach as the last question, what is the problem that putting a bunch of windows into planes was trying to address? OK, so this one was probably quite a bit easier. The reason we have windows on planes isn't because it makes the plane lighter to carry more people, or that it becomes cheaper to build, even though those might actually be true statements. The real problem it was solving was helping people in the plane feel at ease so they could see what was happening outside when in flight, taxiing, and at the gate. OK, so why did I take you through what were some pretty out there examples in a session about product management and converting user problems into solutions? I wanted to focus us on identifying the human need you're addressing whenever you see or are solving a problem. The two problems we had are great examples of aha-type moments, those moments when you figure out what the need actually being addressed is, and then it feels painfully obvious afterwards. So the problem with problems is actually breaking it down until you locate the human need you need to be addressing to solve it. Now, consider how the foundational or fundamental needs like competence, connection, and autonomy impact how your users are interacting with your products. Seek to fulfill your own needs rather than try to deeply understand others and theirs. And once you've solved your own needs, figure out how to extrapolate that out to meet the needs of a much broader audience. So I talked a lot about focusing on human needs in that last slide, but what are human needs? Now, I don't want to turn this session into a Psychology 101-type session, but anytime we start talking about human needs, it's important for us to set some context and framing about what they actually are. So here you see Maslow's hierarchy of needs, which I suspect many of you have seen or heard of before. And I'm not going to focus on the five levels of the pyramid that you see here, but rather I want to draw your attention towards the concept of growth needs and deficiency needs, both of which are important inputs for how you go about addressing the needs of your users. Deficiency needs stem from a person's desire to get rid of deficiencies to obtain things they're lacking. As a person obtains the things they lack, their motivation to obtain these things decreases. So a great example of that is the longer a person goes without food, the more hunger you get. Once you eat, that need is fulfilled until you're hungry again in a couple of hours, and then that cycle begins again. Whereas growth needs, they're not present due to a lack of something, but rather a desire to grow as a person. And interestingly, as a person fulfills growth needs, their motivation increases and their desire to become better just increases as well.  So being very conscious of the needs and the type of needs that you're meeting really helps you figure out the behaviors you can expect from your users when you're building your product. Okay, so how do we go about identifying the human need you're addressing with your product? I've listed a couple of things here. I've always found very useful when working with products that I've managed over the years. First is actually maybe very non-obvious, but become a new and really put yourself into the mindset of being a first-time user coming to your product. Use it, consider the things you miss when first using it, other things you expect to be there that aren't, that you can't do, for example. And then immerse yourself in how people talk about your product and what they're saying about it if it's possible for you to do so. And then seek to identify commonalities or trends in what you're hearing and seeing, and then go off to the underlying cause. And this isn't just useful for fixing problems, but it's also useful for identifying new features based on unmet user needs. And then I think lastly, don't forget to consider the needs of groups of people. As humans, we have a natural predisposition to form groups as humans. And many of the individual needs can be equally applied in a group context as well. That's why you see social networks be so popular. So along the same lines, here are some things I've learned to avoid over the years as well. The first is perhaps common advice or maybe even common sense. Don't go and implement a feature just because a user is asked for it. If you have a hundred different users, you're going to have a hundred different feature asks in many cases. So take the feedback and use it as an import and especially into some of the feedback loops that I talked about a few moments ago and see if you can identify some trends in it. You should not use it as your roadmap in most cases. Another thing is just copying your competitor's feature set or focusing too much on what they are doing or have done. Sure, getting an understanding of what the underlying needs they are meeting is possible to achieve, but it's really, really hard without context to understand who their users are and what they're targeting. I think lastly, listening to other product managers. Let's face it, we all believe we're the smartest person in the room and that we have some sort of unique insight into our users that all of the other product managers don't. Now, in reality, we have a tendency to be very overly analytical or rational in our approach and we miss some of the obvious things in the process. So by all means, talk to other product managers, but treat that feedback in much the same way that you're taking user feedback and look for trends and themes in the data. So let's talk about getting to some creative solutions. So there's a few things here. Creative, one of the things that really strikes me is creative solution just not necessarily equal a beautiful design. It is perfectly possible to meet a need or solve a need in an ugly manner and be very successful. And there's tons of examples of very early product mockups and MVPs through services like Uber and Amazon and probably a ton of our Microsoft products that were very ugly early on, but did what they said on the box. Another thing is to really think about designing for the future. Constraints that exist today might not exist 10, 12, 18 months from now. How does that impact how you're thinking about addressing the need? Also, consider whether or not you're excited about the feature or solution that you're proposing. If you're not excited about it, maybe you shouldn't actually be building it.  If no good solution exists, it's not the right time, come back to it later. And then think about your weaknesses as potential strengths. A good example is people with social phobia. They might actually have a knack for developing great social network products. So always look for the positive in any weakness. So I think another key theme here is simple tweets exhaustive. Provide one general mode with no alternate design. There's no need to have skins or anything like that. You should be able to offer one version of your product and offer it really well.  Find a solution that a user can pick up and start using in a matter of seconds. Take away explanations and focus on ensuring the feature is clear enough that it doesn't need explaining. Not a free solution or feature needs to be obviously or immediately visible in the product. It should be where the user needs it when they need it. And then finally, I think asking users to manage things is unnatural. For most users, management is a chore. It's not a need that they have. Contacts, calendars, great example of things that should just automatically update and be magical and easy to use. So if we think about some of the key takeaways here that I wanna leave you with. So a couple of things to iterate. When it comes to problems, again, focus on getting to the need that isn't being addressed. You can't find the need. And it's really worth digging in and checking whether or not it's a real need or whether it's something that's being manufactured or is an artificial need.   Often you're gonna know what that is innately. And then finally, for getting the creative solutions, stay future oriented and laser focused on addressing needs in a very simple, effective manner. And then remember that it's okay to park scenarios and come back to them later too. Timing is everything. So with that, thank you very much for attending and listening to the session and I hope it was enjoyable.


We got some artwork Let me know if it's too Pixelated or just doesn't look good And if so I'll slow down and if it's really bad we'll have to change it over to Erica's camera some of its fire sales some of its I'd like to get a little bit of it just because I love the piece and it's worth it Like we got big pieces we got little pieces We got circles we got Say rectangles rectangles We got little squares big rectangles. We got disco balls We got planet balls that doesn't work It just makes a Ugly tan light You're probably just open up the windows In their shades This is one of my new ones that I did Which I love the matte of how soft it is Then how crazy it can get look at that So you guys are gonna have to come to slow with the comments because I'm reading Hello, Vam Laura Sherry Chad Holly Molly Selena Thank you for saying that again Hello Kathy Amanda Amanda did you get an update on your package? I Should say on your man's package And all these coasters here are going to Hi, Candy. Thank you They'll have a varnish overlay over them and the back of them will be finished with little Little tabs like that They make it stand up and get that in focus. She's not very good at balancing stuff Luckily, that's LED light back in the day that would have been Broken I don't think we actually need that babe. It's because the whole weight is in between I was just trying to help You did good. All right, I think she's going to You start with a and see each piece through Z Senior helpers What she's gonna do is get her iPad I think so she can Read some comments out loud and tell me where I need to go It's funny. She's turning on all these all the lights and All of our shades are down All she has to do is open up those shades But it's still light babe y'all you got to do is open up the shades and in comes the light Somebody tell her to finish that piece That'd be cool I think you should put us on it see all she has to do is look at that look at all the light that's coming in These are 15 foot windows Finish that piece That's what she said. Well, we got Planet Zenith No price tag That's what that blew but I think I pushed it all off Yeah, these windows are awesome except for in the summertime And right now in the winter we only Like only the middle ones open That one opens that one opens and then we have three over here that one opens But you should feel the air that comes out of those windows.  Won't mess with yours they know because it's hardwired All right, so I guess what we'll do is we'll start with these here coasters Everybody's having an amazing day. Well, thanks Selena Selena Yeah, Susan this building I mean if you can see these floors these are original floors And on some of the floors you can see like this the printing where stuff went back then but this place is Nope, we don't want to do that. This place is About a hundred and twenty five years old These are the ceilings. These are the columns. Yeah, it's a old building I guess what we'll do is we'll start The senior helpers Yeah All right, so I'm gonna get rid of the chat if I can do that Can I not do that? All right, so I'm gonna try to hold this. Let me Don't want to accidentally turn my phone off So you could see like if there's obviously there's difference between a Resin coaster and an alcohol ink which is you can still kind of see the texture of the But They're still beautiful and what we'll do is we'll spray varnish over that so it'll be protected All these are pretty amazing So you can tell like which is alcohol Which is resin but all the coasters are five bucks each This is like one of my favorites this purple and gold This one's so subtle silver and gold Never seen one like that There you go, I'll answer that Leslie this piece What I was doing before Because I've done this a times I have like four pieces over at our gallery right now And what I was doing was sanding it and then putting on matte spray Just to seal it I guess I don't know why But I figured out all you have to do is just put the matte spray on it. That's it Lisa is going crazy Hold on Lisa 11 12 34 35. All right, so we've got a Yeah, you can put just a matte spray over it and it'll it'll give it this really It's hard to see it on film This one doesn't really have it But this is what I was trying to say earlier I did it with this one just to see what it would look like and When I sanded it all this gold Like let's see. Let's find a piece with gold on it Like this let's say I let's say you can see that gold gold veins That's how the entire piece looked but when I sanded it all that gold That was on top came off and then it just looks like that So I just re-resigned over it So if you want all that to stay you just have to spray the matte spray right on top of that And it actually looks kind of almost like gold light when the matte spray goes over it The shine goes away, but the The luster somehow is still there. I'm not sure It's pretty amazing though Sorry, I'll go back to the coasters and if you can tell all the Numbers are underneath. I should have said that at the first We're selling these three here this set of three since they're Kind of amazing took a little while to do these ones The backs are finished. It was my gradient my marble gradient See since we don't we can have some room here. Oh is it? I'll slow down Well, that's all right, Michelle. We appreciate you coming and hanging out We understand shipping is terrible But somebody's got a F where is F at? Let me slow down here F is 150. This is This is one of my favorites. I've heard the one I just showed you guys look at the motion like look at the texture and like This looks like an underwater sea galaxy Michelle Bianca went 16 look at this one Amanda Panda. I would love the three marble ones Look at these cells.  She probably tilted it a little bit made those stretch out a little bit This one so much going on in here price on that one This big Mamma Dama look at this Can you tell me what video you did with the ink and fire? Now cars are expensive When you get the car paid off then you can buy some artwork you got to get around She's only selling this for 700.  Let's see here. I don't know what these are pretty small This is a small one 10 by 20 Look at that Like look like this is this is a good point you see how she has this blue and then there's white here You can tell that she took that blue and swiped right over that. There's my alcohol ink piece. That's my first one But I loved so if you guys buy that You'll have my first I'm trying to slow down here f is 12 by 24. Look at this you guys. This is one of my favorites that she's done of the alcohol inks on the round with this beautiful white background All the largest that we have senior helpers is a 2x But we're reordering soon I think all we have is a pullover and purple and there's one in black There's the infamous holy vagina Phoenix This is another one. I did you guys with the mat Background look at the texture. I love that. Where is X? Somebody just said X This is Z you guys did you even see Z this is the On your phone Oh this one's not for sale Can you say hi, can you say hi? I don't know am I oh That's one of my another favorites that you did that was some of the first big swipes that you did this Like I love hanging it this way But I think I would hang it sideways Because it looks like a crazy bird look at that you guys that is That is one of my favorites that one is 375 And we will finish the sides of that one definitely And this one you guys this is the one I did for breast cancer month and this one is actually This Goes on top of that part Or no, it's flipped around so this bottom part goes here. So you would be one big Piece that makes any sense Well, which ones are some are on canvas some are on board And yes, you can use PayPal Claudia We sure can paint the sides like this one here.

It's like a mirror I think all of these are stumped out at this point to see Um, we go over the two rows on the left all the ones Forest Jeff can you flatten out post on I please uh Yeah, I try to push them down. They just kind of They're like sticky notes. They need to come up with that To where when you pull that off I think judy just paid our rent I think i'm gonna put uh clear over this i'm gonna i'm gonna clear this so that That gold is in there and then i'm gonna put uh matt spray over it Where's bb Bb Yeah, i'm gonna put this over here. I'll go over them from the side Because sometimes the light makes them shiny and you can't really see the details resin makes a huge difference the brand What temperature you pour in How fast you work how much heat you use all makes a difference Angie's these are all five dollars each We'll resin them for you. I'm gonna resin these Uh, they're just regular four by four coasters If you buy the ones like these they'll they'll get the finish on the back of them Like this Thanks, Aaron Let us know This could be one big coaster Just a big go coaster You can see the colors on the side I believe Eva it is Let's go over here Eva wants the purple one Oh no I is so here Senior helpers. Yes or no Eva it's yours Aaron we normally will sand them if it's resin Um We'll sand them That woman has no shoes on not even socks Can somebody tell her the The dangers In a studio with no shoes on So I can stop Don't you have a bunch in your hallway as well we did pull some of them out If it's if it's these We can leave them We can leave them if you want Um, or we can paint them Because there's really no There's not resin on it doesn't mean there's no sanding involved But we will definitely put little Stoppers on here so that they can sit up off of the table and it won't scratch anything And we'll put a clear over this so that's protected nothing will Get on it or come off Unless like I said unless it's resin and these are already Clear coated so nothing's going to come off of those and the back of them will look like that for Oh, this is a nice one um I'll send you um, I think shipping domestically will be anything over like $25 max it'll be under that I'm sure for the most part, but I will have to double check How much should we save for austin's? I think I have 175 People are like I want 16.1. There's a couple people that said Oh Boy I don't think there's any that match this. I think actually this one goes with it But it's very simple This one needs a clear coat though And the backs finished all these need to back finished I want to marine But 20 point a is similar I was that young let me see the green one Oh my god, I don't know what how far we're up What I saw that what were they talking about I'll show you how we do the backs of ours This one's done So we just spray paint it solid color For this is white because the front was like a cream And we put these little felt bumpers on the back that raises it just enough to protect a table Or Let me show you This is what the uh, good lord. Look at this table. That's not on me um Really because I could have just left it We'll take you call it out 20.1 Watch this That's what that was supposed to look like Forest, um, they are on the table Where are the ones that uh, pandabot, you know, I just want to show them the back with the little things on them Here's Or this table Hold on a second these need about a day to dry Probably to move in too fast.  I'm like moving these now Yeah, I'm showing them right now You can't put those on there. They're gonna stick to that We have no room. What what is the deal here? Sorry, we're this is too much for me What you want me to say I'm trying to move as slow and as Gracefully as possible. It's just A little difficult These two match Yeah, we gotta clean the back of these See when you let them set on on uh overnight If you have them set on something like this it gives them a chance to do the drip And that's not fun sanding off Um So if you lay them down on wax paper, they just the the resin will fall off and just goes flat. It's a lot easier All right, so Wants to that Thanks val have a good night. I want to see what this one looks like if we spray Um varnish over it Look at that gold in the silver with that teal Looks so different at different angles Mm-hmm.
