FNN. The Tiger Financial News Network. News Update. Good morning, everyone. Basel Chapman here on this Thursday, the 23rd of February, 10 a.m. Tiger Financial News Network Market Update. We're looking at the Dow up $198,000 to $32,243,000. Look how it came to the exact left side low of $32,948 yesterday. It hit it exactly. So I anticipate there'd be some kind of a bounce for two reasons. One is that the 200-period moving average held. It went under it, closed a little bit above it, and that on a very short-term basis I see an oversold condition, and therefore there should be a bounce. How much? How long? And in today, does it hold 120 points after 130 this afternoon? Does it suddenly turn negative? We'll be seeing about that. We're looking at the S&P. S&P at this particular point is up. It's actually quite nice. It's up 35 points at 4,026. It went under for the second time. Under the 200-period exponential moving average, the Dow and the S&P are in sell modes on the daily. They should be able to trigger a buy signal if it's a very strong move up. That's a big ask. So in the meantime, at 4,026, up 35, that's very nice. It makes on a very short-term basis 4,016 is key support. This is very, this is, or intraday has put it that way. You can see the weekly chart is still holding very nicely above all the different trend line and support levels and the moving averages. Look at the QQQ. QQQ is up 3.26 at 297.46. For two days, it went underneath the 200-period moving average. Now it's trying to get above it. It's going to be a struggle, but the weekly chart has started to improve quite a bit. Looking at the IWM, the Russell 2000 small caps, we're looking at a move up $1.95 at 189.89. It really needs to get to the 192 level by a Monday or Tuesday of next week rather than break under 185. That'll be very negative. Now this is going to be very interesting because gold is down 7 at 1833. It's on the 200-period moving average. It's really been struggling and the dollar actually took about struggling. The dollar isn't really broken above the 200-period moving average, even though it's just down 2.6. And if you're looking at crude oil, crude oil right now is up quite nicely. It's up to $1.77. I'll be back for the tiger to discuss how there's a lot to discuss. See you in a few moments to check out more of the QQQ.


And it's cause you don't have the focus to be mastering yourself.   This Edinburgh, I know the Catholics, glass the Protestants, that war there. I'm fair in there. But they came to see you and the God. So you had to sell ticks to arrange just a religious experiment. This Ciceroa fully flowed. One, two, give and go. These Glasgow kisses won't be underneath the mistletoe. They'll chill out. I bet Kostick never thought he would swing. Come on, you saw the tape. You know you got a week left. Like the plot of the ring. Let me tell you something.  Listen to your evil. Well, I came to perform at Exorcism till his head is spinning. I'm not surprised you used that 06 style. Dash we are in Scotland. 10 years beyond the rest of Britain.  In New Wendell told everyone he was only here for the sausages. Everybody thought he was talking about sausages. You would put apples in that.


Okay, hello everyone D4 summit just finished and I'm now here with Richard Davis from 13 cubed. Thank you so much for joining me if if we If you didn't know hopefully You voted for one of us, but if you didn't know We were both nominated for the first show of the year at the For the forensic forecast awards and part of the sands D4 summit and that was just announced Yeah, Richard you anything you would like to say before I say who won I think probably everyone watching saw it, but we'll see yeah No, just did happy to be nominated. Honestly. We're definitely in good company Like all the all the folks who were nominated just a lot of respect. So it was a really great really great list and basically everyone who was nominated I think You should definitely go check out and check out their stuff. I have a blog post on it I don't know Richard. Did you do anything? I really didn't probably should have So yeah Heather might join us shortly from Celebrite and actually it was the I beg to Defer or I beg to DFIR that won this year. They have a really nice Podcast talking about a lot of different topics and I will throw that into the chat so you can see the I beg to defer Podcast but Before she joins I want to talk to Richard about 13 cube This is really the first time that I've been able to interact with Richard And I thought this this event was a good one to kind of get to know you and get to know your channel a little bit More so what can you tell me about 13 cubed? Well, it it started off as Just kind of a side project. I just one day decided. Hey, I wonder how to do the whole YouTube thing Let me just record a video and I think it was like a I don't know It's like a two or three minute video about I think it was about a tool I wrote or something many years ago and I thought yeah, this is kind of fun. It's kind of a creative outlet So maybe I'll make another one when I get around to it And then I made another one and then so on and so forth and then over the years Just kind of got into the habit my goal is to do one each month Which I know is not that much compared to a lot of other youtubers But man as you know doing this it takes a while to research and script and record and editing Yeah, it takes a while so D for diva is in the chat and she said two of my favorite channels. Thank you so much D for diva Yeah, thank you and thank congratulations on your nomination to by the way Absolutely. Yeah, so I'll tell a secret I voted for D for diva in Anyway, I'm throwing a 13 cubes episode guide in the chat as well. Definitely go check it out and Alexi is here. Hello Hello so okay, so you got started with with Just interested in YouTube, but then you make really high-quality videos like whenever I watch them I'm thinking man. The stuff I put out is nothing compared to the awesome stuff you're doing So how how did you I guess how did you get into it? Are you just interested in the video editing aspect or like? Yeah, that's That's exactly how it started out. It was just it was a challenge to learn something new About audio production and video production and how to use various editors I actually started out with just screen flow which is screen recording software for the Mac Back in the pre Apple Silicon days, right? And then when Apple Silicon came along as good as it is kind of killed the whole being able to virtualize x86 x64 Windows and Linux and whatnot So kind of switch the entire workflow over to PC at that point Which kind of made sense anyway because 99% of my content is Windows Linux So yeah, I just taught myself Premiere Pro after switching from screen flow and Final Cut Pro and then Yeah, I record stuff with OBS and then edit it in Premiere Pro And then I had to teach myself a lot of stuff about audio and choosing the right mics and It's all this kind of stuff. So it's fun. I think I had a pretty much the same thing except I haven't really Switched to Windows yet. I'm still hanging on to Linux Yeah, so I kind of kind of the same feeling but shavers and and Marcel are also in the chat Hello, everyone. We're kind of go. We got everyone. I don't know how this Okay Right, so You got into YouTube because you were just interested in it video editing and I think we're just into software and technology in general But why did you choose digital forensics as the topic? So I took I think my my very first sans class I ever took actually was 408 right which became 500 and that was back in 2014 and I was already in the information security field and at the time I was a I was a CISO at a state college in Georgia and we had, you know A decent amount of investigative type stuff that we had to do and I thought, you know, this is something I should probably learn so Took the 408 sans class like super enjoyed it was fortunate enough to get the coin I was like, this is awesome. I want to keep going So I just kept absorbing all of the material that I could reading and learning and setting up labs Which is like by far the best way to learn something right to just set up a test environment set up a lab and so continue with that and then You know, I guess digital forensics became more and more a part of my job the more I learned about it I was able to incorporate what I learned into investigations moved on to another job after that was able to use that knowledge and apply it and Then, you know still today it just became my like my main job So yeah, I just really like the field so excellent So how do you choose topics then because I find all of your topics to be extremely practical you really walk us through Step by step everything about how you're doing. I saw one on I think it was Something like shell bags or something. I don't remember the episode exactly but it was specifically like looking at how updates are happening and how someone starting in the field would actually Discover that themselves and try to make those connections. So How do you choose what to do that makes sense so? Yeah, that's a good question. Sometimes it's it's real-world stuff that I've run across in Investigations that I've worked on like RDP cash like I had no idea RDP cash was even a thing a few years ago, right and then One of the people that I was working with it if my previous job stumbled across it in investigation He's like, hey, what is this thing? We're like, I don't know never seen this before so we start researching it and then it ended up being an extremely valuable Artifact and then I'm like, yeah, I should probably make a video on this kind of put together what I learned based on that So that's one way like real-world stuff and another way is just Following Twitter and looking at what the community is doing anytime. There's the cool new, you know tool or You know something new and exciting that comes out I guess the most recent example of that being memprocfs, which my boss actually pinged me a link to it and said hey Have you seen this tool? This is pretty cool and like by chance the next day will frisk on Twitter the author he reached out to me and he's like, hey, I made this this tool And I'm like that's that's awesome. I actually have it downloaded. I'm it's on my list, right? I'm gonna I'm gonna learn this and see what I can do with it and then I just took it from there And I'm like, this is this is awesome. I think I'm gonna make an episode about this. Yeah, that was a great Episode by the way. I'm trying to find the link for it But I'm sure you can find it in the episodes that I just shared so I'll share episodes again because I don't have That link handy but yeah Yeah, the memprocfs video Really interesting What about your style? Did you did you learn? Like I find your videos to be really in-depth but like Kind of expert level essentially but also extremely approachable and I based on the comments a lot of people who are new to Investigations and new to digital forensics are coming to your channel And they seem to really be getting it. How did you cultivate this style or what's your technique? You know, I just kind of One of those fake it till you make it kind of things I guess just kind of winged it at first honestly just like I'm not sure what I'm doing here I'm just gonna kind of present the information in a way that I would want to consume it if I were watching a video So basically I think what's the the classic idiom that people use I think it's something along the lines of tell them what you're gonna tell them tell them and then tell them What you told them that's kind of the flow, right? So you do the intro you do the the demo and then you do a recap to basically say, okay Here's here's the takeaway. Here's what we learned and I've just kind of revised that that same formula over time I think and just tried to You know not spend too much time with with fluff or things that people don't really care about just kind of get straight to the point Here's what we're gonna talk about. Let's do it. Let's recap. So Kind of the way I like to learn Right so what I guess if I can I'm not trying to steal your ideas or anything But what are you planning for the future on the channel? So short term the next episode that's coming out it'll go live for patreon supporters Probably I don't know this week or next week. It's what's on my BF IR box or some ID for box That's some kind of one that's been requested for a while like what tools and and Things that do I use basically on my own system? Strangely if I was actually recorded before memproc FS So you'll notice that memproc FS is missing from that but it's absolutely in my my tool belt now But all the other things from x ways to of course some guy named Eric Zimmerman Maybe you've heard of him, you know his tools Just all the different things that I use Both for lab work and you know some of it obviously for actual work work as well So that's gonna be the next one coming up and then after that one that's been in the works for a few months just because how long it took to do research and That's called impact it impediments and there's actually a really cool Well, I think it's cool cheat sheet that'll go along with it It's like five pages and it's gonna cover the impact at remote execution tools so AT exact PS exact yes and be exact so on and so forth and How you can detect the usage of those tools on a target system via Windows event logs So it's like a it's gonna be like a 40 minute long episode pretty in-depth And the cheat sheet kind of summarizes all the stuff that we cover in there. So that'll be probably Late September ish for public release So yeah, that's that's the next one and those are the two like I guess upcoming things But in addition to that I I got a camera and you know kind of a different setup And I want to try to get some people on much like we're doing here I'm just for like some some guest interviews or guest presenters or things like that. I'd like to have Zimmerman on Alexis D4diva in any of you guys Brett any of you in the in the chat you're more than welcome I think that will be really really cool. Of course, you and I are already planning something coming up But we'll alert so I think that'll be really neat to have some guests presenters Okay, so the best way to contact you is Twitter, right? Yeah, Twitter works either me personally at at Davis Richard G or 13 cubes is at 13 cube D F I R Also, just Richard at 13 cube calm. Do you want to email instead? Okay Can't get it without making a little noise. So anyway, I've posted the website and all the contact information is on the website You like you said we are planning on doing something. I do want to talk a little bit about how you got into Forensics you said that you were working at a university basically like how Without going into too much depth because we'll cover this basically later, but Let's just go if you were a new person starting today. What kinds of things would you focus on? If they wanted to go a similar career path So first off I would I would tell people you don't have to have a Degree in like digital forensics or cyber security to get in to cyber security Some people that I work with that are absolutely brilliant either have no degree or they have a degree in something That's completely unrelated to the field. So don't let that stop you That that would be the first thing Second thing is that if you learn things Don't be afraid to share those things, right? You don't have to be an expert in something to teach something and share your knowledge with others And that's a great way to learn to I found the best way to really solidify Some things to try to teach it to other people But just in terms of general advice about people who are like hey, that's that's kind of cool I want to get into the field There are so many free resources that are available now Like you don't have to pay a dime you can go out there and just get all kinds of wonderful training whether it's you know books or You know podcasts or videos like this or whatever that you can look at of course You've got you know DFI our training and DFI our diva and about DFI our and all these awesome resources Sands has obviously a lot of stuff for completely for free for posters and things like that Obviously your your channel and there's a Sands DFI our channel as well There's just all this awesome content that Most of which didn't exist when I was trying to get into it and now it does and it's it's just you know Nice and easy to find and just a great way to get started Plus you can set up home labs like on the cheap like go on eBay buy some Used Dell Opti Plex or something and throw ESXi on it or something like that set up a some Start playing around with it. It's a great way to learn and On that note D for diva had a great article about home labs, so I'm gonna post that to chat as well right Okay, so Man there's a lot we could talk about but I think I have to save it for for next time Anything you want to say to about the D for summit? Have you been watching the whole thing? Did you just tune in for the awards? So I've been watching it on and off You know as I've had time doing my my day job So I've had a laptop up next to me with streams going on so lots of great content I wish I was able to have made it in person this year I've only been once in person and like I was telling you I think it was 2019 I think And it was a lot of fun. So yeah, but even still just being able to watch it all online is awesome, too So yeah, good stuff great Okay We have a couple more minutes until Heather might join us Can you tell me a little bit about you told me you didn't tell me much about actually where you work now and what you're doing Can you talk a little bit about that and? Sure. Yeah, so they look like so I work for Microsoft directly. I work on the detection and response team or dart Aka ms slash dart jobs if you're interested, so it's aka dot ms slash dart jobs I'll just turn it into a recruiting event right, but we're hiring lots and lots of people coming up So just check that for for jobs if you're interested, but Fantastic bunch of people can't say enough good stuff as far as what a typical day looks like There's there's no typical day. It's it's all different We are you know, obviously in the business of helping our customers and you know They they come in all shapes and sizes all over the world, right? so lots of interesting cases and Lots of bleeding-edge stuff that that you would expect to see you know working at a at a big place like Microsoft So it's it's awesome. I've learned so much just in the one Let's see one year and eight months. I think I've been there. So it's been a great experience thus far and Is it because of the scale or is it more like? unique cloud opportunities or It's everything. I think it's a little bit of everything but the people more than anything We have an incredible group of people with all these different backgrounds From all over the world like we're our team is global, right? So we have I don't know. I don't know what the exact headcount is now. I'm you know 150 ish people. I don't know something like that, but And obviously we'll continue to grow but it's Just just the background that everyone brings of their experience that they bring from whatever they did in the previous Job and so, you know, I think the cool thing is is if there is a topic that you want to know Extremely in-depth whatever that is like how this particular Artifact behaves or how this thing works There's gonna be someone on the team that is a technical expert in that area at least that's been true so far It's awesome. See you start developing these go-to people like, you know, this person's the you know The go-to person for exchange related stuff, you know or for understanding web shells that are really in-depth level go to this person That kind of thing. So just the collaboration and being able to share and learn from others I think it's great. And how does that work online? I know a lot of people especially with like work from home and everything they had trouble But I mean you're working at a totally different Scale so obviously you're using these remote tools Are you able to kind of split off and get the knowledge you need or do you just throw a question out there and people just answer it or Socialization work It's better than than you might think honestly. We use teams obviously And we we have so many teams channels and chats stood up with with various, you know groups and subgroups within our team And we can you know, generally very quickly You know just call someone up on a on a video call or audio call and get them on and say hey You know, can you take a look at this really quick? Can you you know make sure I'm on the right path or you know Take a look at this weird behavior. I'm seeing something like that. So the collaboration works really well We do obviously still do some on-site work and some travel But the vast majority of my work is like you said just sitting out here in this office and working remotely So yeah works out what really well Do you bring a lot of the same tools that you that you're using now into your videos or like one of the problems? I have is that I can't assume that the person person watching has access to some professional level cloud service, right? So I want to Get the knowledge out there to people who have access at the same time it can practice along with me So like are you? You find a balance with that. Are you just mostly working with offline tools? I think most the ones I've seen were mostly offline, but Yeah, so I should say I'm not the I'm not the cloud forensics expert by any means Right, but we certainly have people on our team and you know that that's what they do They they would be able to help with like office 365 intrusion type things or you know They really understand you know the cloud at a very in-depth and deep level I can do those investigations, but my bread and butter so to speak my expertise would be Windows, you know dead box forensics or you know image analysis kind of thing or a triage image analysis Windows memory forensics Linux forensics Which yes, we actually do quite a bit of Linux forensics even being Microsoft So yeah, all those things are kind of the the world I live in and as far as the tools We obviously have some internal tools that we've developed that get deployed out to our customers to collect Forensic metadata and bring it back to us so that we can then look and analyze that data A similar type thing that you might do with like a cape type of workflow And we use things like x-ways and just commercial tools of course to obviously Zimmerman tools memproc fs You know all that kind of stuff. Okay, interesting So I almost imagined that it was completely automated everything is a you know What a cloud instance or something and then you can just pull it in clone it as you see fit And it seems like there's a lot more More than what I was thinking even Yeah, so at a high level basically the the tools that we have are Able to be deployed in our customer environment They will take that forensic metadata shoot it up to the cloud to an Azure Database instance that's provisioned for us and then we can then hunt through that data at scale and actually be able to go through and You know look at thousands tens of thousands hundreds of thousands of computers at scale looking for you know Whatever it is right having it on IOC or stacking data and finding outliers any of that kind of difficult stuff And then you know using the sands funnel approach that that is taught in 508 where you start the wide part of the tunnel And then kind of work your way down We can go all the way to the tip of that funnel deep diving into disk image analysis and memory forensics If it you know if the situation warrants that obviously that doesn't scale very well But you know we can certainly but you can still pull all that remotely and just from from detection to to Deadbox acquisition and investigation. You just everything's remote now excellent. Yep. It's pretty pretty amazing It's really amazing. Yeah, especially coming from police investigation side where we're like something already happened We can't get a lot of the data. It sounds glorious Okay, well Thank you so much Congratulations on the nomination and congratulations everyone in the chat It seems like a lot of people who are nominated are in the chat to Brett Shaver with his excellent book also Absolutely have it right over there Yeah, so thank you for for joining me and it was great to finally finally meet you and I Hope I hope there's more to come for next year and we can be nominated again Okay Anything you want to leave with I Know just you know, like I said, thanks to everyone watching for for nomination and you know Like I said, just glad to be in the good company that we're in we have a great community Yeah, I mean, thank you for I guess I should say thank you not for being our congratulations for being nominated But just thank you for making such great content. I mean, I know I've learned a lot from you. So I appreciate. Thank you Same here. Okay. All right. So thank you everyone. This is Richard. I've put in Links basically to 13 Cube is just 13 cube calm. Go check out all his videos He also has a patreon where you can support him and Yeah, that's his part-time job. So Anything you can do to help out will definitely definitely help. Thank you so much and I will see everyone later Thanks


Hi, this is your Saptan Bhatia and today we have with us once again guy Martin director of open source and standards at Nvidia Guy is great to have you back on the show swap. It's great to see you again Yeah, and today's topic is something which is close to our heart, which is open source open source program offices Before we jump into this broader topic since you have a long history your long background in open source So I would love to hear from you just tell our audience about your open source history and background I guess that's your polite way of saying I'm old now. I've seasoned a bit in the industry quite a while Yeah, we both have the great hair But I've run open source program offices and efforts at a lot of different places US Department of Defense for a while The precursor to what became red hats open source office helped start Samsung's open source program office ran an open source program office at Autodesk been a lot of different places, which is both cool and Interesting again makes us seem old, but it's been it's been all great experiences And I took a kind of short detour to run an open source and standards consortium called Oasis open for a while to about two years And since you are here, I would like to hear your definition. How would you define open source program office? I think an open source program office is kind of the central nexus of An open source open source efforts in an organization and it what I've learned in being in a lot of these different open source program offices Is that there's not one size fits all it can be very very different depending on the needs of the organization? Samsung for example, we had centralized resources that worked on open source projects that were really critical and key to the company I've been at other places where it's more of a concierge style model where you do you're basically a Place to do to come into training. You're a place to come and advise other parts of the company But a lot of the work happens in a decentralized fashion So it can be a lot of different things, but I think it's really if I had to define it in kind of one phrase It's that central nexus of open source activities in the organization if you just look at your own history your own career graph You mostly work in large organizations, you know who do have much more mature actually the fact is that a lot of companies They are embracing open source. So even the large organizations, they may still have a very nascent open source, you know strategy in place But but when we do look at you know open source program offices Are they critical to a company of a specific size or it doesn't matter whether your large organization is small You should have that approach, you know, I think it's interesting I've been asked this question before and I don't have a precise answer other than to say that at some point With your company is small enough It's going to be too much process and too much heavyweight, right? It's better to have your engineering teams engaging directly with with the open source Communities that they're important that are important to them. I think once your company starts Contributing and using a lot of open source and a lot is kind of relative, right? It's more about how much open source you're using and thinking how involved you are Rather than necessarily the size of your company, but obviously you get to large organizations the size of Nvidia and others You know finding out how you help manage that that open source presence and you know Be an advocate for open source inside of your organization and then also be an advocate for the organization within the open source community I think it's that's kind of where I think the sweet spot of a lot of open source program efforts lies I'm pretty sure that you know companies they have the right motive They do want to become very good open source citizen But can you also talk about that not having an open source program officer not having an open source, you know strategy What are the risk companies might run into so that they should Build, you know, at least start somewhere with open source, right? And the way I would phrase this is open source usage in organizations is not about altruism, right? It's we've said for a long time. It's about enlightened self-interest You participate in these open source communities. You use open source because it's valuable for your business, right? And so I think not having Some sort of open source strategy You don't have to happen of what source program office immediately but not having some sort of open source strategy that you can kind of understand How you want to engage with the community? What kinds of open source you want to use? You know a lot of companies start from the licensing side, right? Licensing side we need to get licensing right and we don't want to be running a foul and being sued and and that's fine And that's great, but it's not it you shouldn't stop there, right? You should understand sort of, you know, what open source projects are critical to your business and then figure out How involved and engaged you need to be in those communities to take best advantage of that? And I think that's where having a solid open source strategy about what open source is important to you And how engaged you need to be in that community whether just consuming it right and keeping up with what's going on or contributing changes back Contributing a lot of changes back setting the direction of that project There are some open source projects that you just need to really consume effectively And then there are some that are going to be key and critical to your business So you need to actually engage In a way that you can help set the direction of that open source project For the benefit of your business as well as the entire community. Let's look at the Look at it from the benefits also that having an open source strategy brings a lot of value to organizations As you rightly said, there may be a lot of projects They don't need a lot of but there are a lot of projects If you're actively involved you can it's not necessarily influence the project But you whichever direction you want you have some kind of stay there So let's also look at it the benefits of having open source program office. Yeah, I mean, I think once you get to be Either the size of an organization that's going to naturally use a lot of open source Or you're an organization that may be smaller But it's really engaged in a couple of really specific open source projects at a minimum having that open source strategy Remember having an open source strategy doesn't necessarily equate to having an open source program office It can and usually the open source program office is critical in setting that strategy But even if you're a smaller org that's just starting to participate in you rely on You know kubernetes will pick or cncf pick one of those you need to have An engagement model in mind into how you're going to work with that community And I think the benefit of having a strategy open source program office Is it gives you a place as an organization to think about that strategy? and to Sort of depending on the organization size meld together the different strategies for different groups that may have may or may not have The same interest in a project right one group may need Just to consume that project whereas one group may need to Help drive the direction of that project And so having an open source strategy and or open source program office Is really the place where you can start to have those discussions that maybe span multiple projects inside multiple products or Engineering efforts inside your company and as you have worked with so many different companies in different rules Can you also talk about you know, is there any typically specific role of open source program office? Or does it really depend on the organization? I think again, it really depends on the organization, right? I found that there's not a one size fits all I find that there's a lot of value in both sort of Again being the advocate for Open source within an organization Maybe there are parts of the organization that need a little bit more Guidance and again that concierge model and then there's also kind of the external Value of an open source program office in reaching out and making inroads with certain project communities that you you may need And then there's also kind of what? What we used to call it samsung kind of a sensing function, right? So I think that open source program offices and this applies to open standards as well Can be a place where you have people with the right technical background Kind of looking out a little further down the road to say hey There's there's a standard or there's an open source project that you know is going to impact us at some point And you don't waste a lot of engineering resources on having you know engineers necessarily following those discussions But you have someone like me or someone who's in an open source program office that goes And kind of searches those things out keeps track of them Does a little bit of kind of intelligence gathering if you will and then Brings that information back in and shares that with the appropriate groups inside of the organization Can you also talk a bit about you know, of course, you know different organizations? They approach it differently, but Are there some like core basic functions of a successful open source program office and if just What are those? I think the main The main kind of core function I've always thought of for an open source program office is again coordination Right when I say it's the central nexus. It's it's the coordinating It's a place you can go have coordination in terms of What is our what is our open source strategy? It doesn't have to necessarily come from that open source program office But that open source program office should be Working hand-in-hand with business side with the engineering side kind of bringing those two groups together and being that coordinating That the place you can coordinate Those decisions. I mean sometimes the decisions again depends on the organization may come directly from management may come You know bottom up, but I think Having a place that is is kind of the place where all those things try to come together And you try to make sense of what your open source strategy is is a is a central function Education is a key piece, right? I mean, I think if I had to break it down it's advocacy education And and a little bit of a little bit of marketing if you if you really want to get down to it, right? I mean, I think that's kind of what one of the functions of an open source program office ends up being is is being that voice That that place that that people can go. Okay. I want to know what's going on an open source that company x Oh, okay. They have an open source program office. That's a good place to start It may not be you know, that open source program office may hand them off to a specific Engineering team if they want to know more about what's going on in the company But it's kind of that central place to start Can you talk about how should open source program office engage with the Larger open source communities because the fact is there is no one community a company may be engaging with a lot of different open source projects So talk about the right way to improve Engage with these communities. Well, I think that's kind of the where I have tended to find myself In roles that I've gravitated towards which is you know, I wrote code for the first half of my career And now I joke that I only wrote right code that annoys my poor partner when the lights don't work in the house So I have an engineering background But I understand the business side and I think that's again really where the open source program office can engage with communities Engage with open source communities and say hey, here's our business. Here's kind of our Reason for being interested in this community and here's our business goals And you know, how do those map to the to your open source community? And if they don't map, okay, great We've identified a conflict that we need to address but it's really Being again being an advocate for that for the company and sometimes as you know, right There are companies and and I've worked for some that haven't had great reputations and I think part of the open source program office and And that kind of role is making sure that you dispel some of the myths that are out there potentially about Company X and and what their reputation is and how they have or haven't done a good job with open source And working with those open source communities to to be again that advocate for the organization to say hey Yeah, we're not here to you know for for purely altruistic reasons We're here because we were in light. We have enlightened self-interest We're in we we're interested in this community because it benefits us But we also understand that it has to benefit the rest of the community to remain healthy If you look at open source program offices, what are the main challenges that they face today? Well, besides lack of resources, but I think that's that's common for all of them I think, you know, it's it's a it's a challenge where they have to understand Intimately the business needs of their organization, right? They have to be wholly in tune with what's going on inside the organization and be be able to disintermediate You know different challenges that different business units might have again One business unit may need an open source project just to to consume it One may need to set the direction help set the direction of it And what happens if that one business unit is setting the direction of an open source project That is counter to what that other business unit that is just consuming it needs, right? So there's I think managing kind of the external excuse me internal expectations of what these open source projects are about is a big part and a big challenge for for open source program office folks, but but also again And navigating misperceptions and and things that the the community may look at a company and judge it based on its past Actions which may or may be justified may be not justified, but regardless, right? I think It's almost open source program office folks are I best describe them almost as an ambassador They're an ambassador kind of from both sides and and sometimes being an ambassador, right? You you're going to get you're gonna get the slings and arrows of either the open source Community or your own organization and and finding a way to to be that effective bridge and ambassador I think is is the key critical role for for any good open source program office person I have one last question which is more about your advice for open source officers I think keep something in mind that if you go back to my description of an open source program office person as an ambassador It's an ambassador that has to understand Not at a super deep level all the technology involved But has to have credibility with technologists and credibility with business people Right. I think that's where I have ended up finding My niche and a lot of other folks that I know that you and I both know in the in the open source program office community There's there's kind of a reason we joke that there's about a hundred or so of us on the planet We all know each other because the skill set to do this Is not one that I've ever seen taught in universities because again, it's it's part understanding the business and being comfortable You know speaking on camera being comfortable speaking at conferences being comfortable Addressing senior executives and explaining to them these values But also being able to sit in a room in a room with engineering Engineers and go okay. I I truly do feel your pain. I understand what you're going through I I may not understand the technical depth of everything you're doing But I understand you're having problems getting you know resources to contribute from my company or from any other company So it's really that that sort of mixed skill set that I think You know as open source program office Folks in the community We really need to start cultivating because I know I learned it right It was very much a learned thing for me that I kind of fell into this and ended up Having to learn a lot more about marketing and a lot more about business execution and strategy and a little bit about sales Right because sales strategy drives a lot of how you you interact with open source communities and what you need for your products And how you how you need to draw that line around, you know, what do you open source? Versus what do you keep proprietary right? I think that's the other piece In all of this that that open source program offices get asked a lot is where's the line? What do I make proprietary? Where do I keep proprietary? What do I make open source? When do I do it? When's the right time to do it? and so all of those things um are kind of Just part of the job and you know it ends up being I think one of the most interesting and challenging parts of the job for me Guys, thank you so much for taking time out today and talk about this Important topic today, and I would love to have you back on the show. Thank you. Awesome. Thanks. It's awesome. Great to see you


So the great vessels are blood vessels that enter and exit the heart itself. Now, if you look at our diagram here, I've only drawn the great vessels. I've only drawn vessels that directly enter or exit the heart. If you look at this drawing, you'll notice that we actually have some branches, and of course we have branches. The whole thing is going to branch, and we're going to have mad branches everywhere. And the branches are what we're going to talk about in the next piece. In the next lecture, we're going to figure out, like, what is the name of this branch? And where does it go? And what does it turn into when? And we'll follow it all the way through and be able to fill in some of the details. But the great vessels, all we're going to worry about today are just the vessels that directly come in and leave the heart. So if we have our super simple body boxes and lung boxes, that's all we need. We just need to know that this is going to take us to the lungs. You know that we're going to have all sorts of branching and naming of those branches on our way to the lungs and back from the lungs. But all we care about are the ones that come in and out of the heart themselves. So we're going to start thinking through the great vessels that are involved in the systemic circulation, as opposed to the great vessels that are involved in pulmonary circulation. And what I want you to think about is, if we're associated with body, that's systemic. That's part of the systemic circulation, circulatory system, systemic. And if it's associated with the lungs, if the vessel, the great vessel is going to or from the lungs, that's part of the pulmonary system. And really, I mean, your heart really does have two pieces. Part of the circulatory system that we're going to talk about today is the actual names of the vessels that feed the heart itself, and that's the coronary circulation. And then next time we'll deal with all the details in both of these branches. Okay, so let's talk about the systemic system first.


This is how I made LaCruzette cookies into art I can keep forever. First thing to do was figure out the color palette. LaCruzette has some beautiful blue shades so I definitely had to include that with some complementary colors including a new shade, nutmeg. Now coloring the icing is one of the hardest steps to me because I want to get it as close as possible and I think I did pretty well. Next you already know is flooding the cookies. Before I added the final details I laid them out in order to make sure I was working with the right one because some of the colors were pretty close. Now to preserve them I'm using resin. This was actually my first time working with resin and it was easy and hard at the same time. It's easy to mix but there was definitely some troubleshooting. But as always we make it work. Now only the backs are covered with resin. I didn't want to do the front because I wanted to keep it looking like a cookie and if anything happened because it's in my own house I can fix it. I preserved the back to keep the oil from running onto the paper that it would live on. I laid these on parchment paper to dry and gave it a double coat. They're already so cute! I love it! And now for the serious part I have to make sure these cookies are glued on correctly. I used tape and thread to center the cookies perfectly. To actually secure these cookies on I'm using 5 minute epoxy. Also first time using these and it weirdly smelled like cooked salmon. Also I only had 3 minutes to work with it so I didn't in batches. Took the tape and thread off and this is what we're left with. So beautiful. Time to take them to the custom frame shop. This was terrifying. My arms were literally shaking the whole time but we got it there in one piece and had to leave it for a few days. They called me when it was ready and this is the big reveal. This was so so nerve wracking but I love how it turned out. I've had this idea in my head for like a whole year so it's so cool to see it come to life. In true Karen fashion I was way too excited about this so went home and immediately started hammering her nails. This thing was so heavy it definitely took me a few tries to try to hang it. When I finally did get it up it was everything I imagined it to be. It's the first thing you see when you walk in the door and I love how it represents everything that I love and who I am. And under our lights it truly looks like a piece of art.


Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE. Covering Edge 2016, brought to you by IBM. Now, here are your hosts, Dave Vellante and Stu Miniman. Welcome back to IBM Edge, everybody. This is theCUBE, the worldwide leader in live tech coverage. This is day two of our wall-to-wall coverage of IBM Edge. theCUBE's fifth year, we were here at the inaugural 2012 Edge in Orlando. Greg McCoy is here, he's the manager of IT Architecture at Henry Mayo New Hall Hospital. Greg, good to see you again. How are you doing? Good, thanks. We met last night, talked a little football. Let's talk tech. What's happening in your world of IT architecture? First of all, tell us about the hospital. What's it about? How many beds? You know, give us the critical stats. So Henry Mayo, we're a 238 bed. On the outskirts of Los Angeles, if you know where Magic Mountain is, we're in Valencia, California. So 238 beds, we're actually growing. We're building a new patient tower that we're going to be adding another 130 beds. So it's a real small community, but we're the only game in town. So we give care to a lot of patients there. And your role as IT Architect spans all infrastructure? Talk a little bit about that. It spans all infrastructure, from the servers, the desktops to the network, and everything in between. At storage as well.  But how do you manage the need to have technical specialization with general knowledge across all those different disciplines? Yeah, so in healthcare, and I think it's that way, definitely in a small hospital there, we have to wear many hats. I came in to the hospital as an engineer myself. Not really a storage guy, more of a server guy, but as the years have progressed, I've become a virtualization guy, I became the storage guy, I've become the desktop guy, I've become the server guy. And so those are all the hats that we all have to wear. We're a small engineering team, and so we expect all our guys to wear those hats. Did you find it was difficult to sort of wear those many hats, or did the technology, knowledge and servers translate well to other areas? Was it all just buzzwords that once you figured out what it did and how it worked and what it was that it applied, or was it more difficult than that? It was a little difficult. Stores for me was probably the most difficult. I grew up in IT with servers. Stores are the best. Stores is always difficult for me. I know the networking by the back of my head. I know the servers by the back of my head. Once I got into the storage, because I never dealt with the storage, I'd always just give it to our storage guys. But here at Henry Mayo, we have to wear all the hats. And so that was, it was interesting, but at the same time I've learned a lot.  So, and over the last decade or so, architectures have evolved to make things simpler. Obviously, virtualization helped a little bit, now converged is helping. Can you talk about how you've seen technology evolve to make your life easier? Has it? Is that a fair premise? That is really the key in what we do. Since we do have to wear those many hats, we want our systems to be easy to manage. We want them to be a point and click, something that we don't have to go in and, as you talked about, provision a lawn. I don't want to have to be the manual process of provisioning a lawn and then presenting it to a host or what have you. I want to just be able to just click it and done. It's there, storage is available and now I can provision VMs. What's happening on the business side of the hospital?  How is that affecting IT? Oh, it's affecting IT hugely. The very first thing that comes to mind is security. There have been many, many stories out there of security breaches and how hospitals have to pay when there is a security breach. You have to pay fines and so security is the number one concern, definitely where we're at and you have the ransomware attacks. And so we look at security very, very seriously. It drives our business. It's how we get payments back and it's something that we're going to continue to look at going forward. So, one of the gentlemen in the keynote yesterday had a stat, it was Michael Lawley. He said that 50% of the healthcare organizations have been attacked multiple times and my comment was the other 50% don't know they've been attacked. Exactly, exactly. So security has changed, right? I mean, it used to be you put all your effort in to try to secure the perimeter and build a moat and keep the bad guys out and now it's, I think it's fair to say that people have come to the realization that they're going to get in. It's what you do once again, how you respond to them. Keep the data from getting out. Yeah, so how do you manage all that? Yeah, so that's something that, again, it's at the forefront of our minds at all times. Every system we put in, every new technology we put in, security is at the top of the list of the check marks of what we have to be able to make sure that it has the correct parameters we're looking for in order to secure our environment.    The only thing that's different is we run an EMR system that absolutely has to be up 100% of the time, our clinicians, our physicians absolutely have to have this application available. Other than that, you know, we're a typical IT shop, we're running Exchange, we're running VMware, we're running, you know, the x86 servers, very, very few Linux, so it's mostly a Windows shop but it's no different than I would think a standard IT.  You know, where do you offer differentiation? Healthcare has a lot of, you said, security's important, you know, compliance issues, so, you know, cloud might be something you might not be able to handle or work with. What is, do you guys use, you know, SaaS applications and, you know, any kind of public cloud or is cloud kind of off, not a lot today? Very few SaaS applications. We've discussed cloud, we've discussed cloud for several years. We seem to get to a point where we're looking at it but maybe we have to, you know, draw back because simply because the compliance issues is not there. We do have specific compliance issues that we have to adhere to and so we want to be able to be dynamic. We want to be able to look at cloud technologies but we have to do it in a safe manner and a cautious manner and be, you know, pretty diligent on what we choose. Okay, so even customers that aren't leveraging public cloud a lot, they're measured by public cloud so looking for things like, you know, can I, you know, purchase it in a simple manner like cloud? Is it easy to operate? You mentioned kind of point and click. So, you know, what are you doing with your infrastructure to make it easier to manage, take less of your time, your team, having to kind of touch the infrastructure? I think the biggest thing that we've done is we actually procured or purchased a VersaStack last year. We are in the midst of one of the biggest projects in the hospitals. We are upgrading our EMR system to the newest platform and when we went out looking for infrastructure for this, we specifically wanted to go converge. We wanted something that we weren't continually managing something that we didn't have to build ourselves as we did previously with, you know, like Legos pretty much, just we build the servers, we build this network, we build the storage and then try and put it all together. So we specifically went out looking for a converged environment because we wanted something that could be easily managed, something that we didn't have to maintain every single day and make sure this piece is now working with this piece, something that our engineers can then go out and do other things and look for other solutions. So the VersaStack was very true. That's great. We've been tracking converged infrastructure since the very early days. Can you walk us through a little bit of that journey? You know, what were some of the decision criterias and what led you to VersaStack? Were you a Cisco UCS customer? Were you an IBM storage customer? Or, you know, was it, you know, new on both of those fronts? So we were not a Cisco good. The VersaStack actually is our first foray into the Cisco servers. We were strictly an IBM customer. We had IBM x86 servers and IBM's storage as well. We're always a Cisco shop as far as networking is concerned. But we've had challenges with our existing EMR. And it's not that the existing storage was not performing badly. It's just that there would be maybe once or twice a week to where we would have latency issues. And we couldn't pinpoint it. We couldn't put our finger on it. But as I mentioned before, that system is the livelihood of our positions and our nurses. So we specifically went looking for a converged infrastructure with all flash storage to implement this new EMR system. Okay. Were you a VMware customer before? We were a VMware customer before. And I'm assuming you were running VMware on the VersaStack. Okay, can you walk, you know, how's the implementation go? What applications do you have on it today? And maybe share a little bit about where you see that infrastructure going. Sure. So we actually bought it last year. As I mentioned, we bought it specifically for a specific purpose. With the particular application that we have, we have to use certified integrators. And I can't stress enough how important it is to have key partners as well as integrators to bring in any, whatever infrastructure you choose. So we did go with our partner that we've used for a very long time with all of our IBM equipment. And we were introduced to a new integrator actually to implement the Meditech system. So once we had the partners in place, we actually brought the VersaStack in, wheeled it in the data center, and had it stood up and ready to go within six weeks. Something that definitely doesn't happen normally. It's something that would have taken a very long time. But with the VersaStack, we had it up and running and turned over to our Meditech partner within six weeks. In the business case for that, was to deal with the latency issues or was it a combination of things? The complexity, IT labor, time? So what definitely drove it was the latency issue. Was the response time from the application. We absolutely had to have this application have absolutely no response time. So that was the driving factor. From an IT perspective, we wanted to go convert because again, we're a small organization. From an IT perspective, we have few engineers and we didn't want the engineers constantly managing the system. So we wanted to go convert so it would allow them to do other things. So what do you do with your time? Now that you're not doing non-differentiated, heavy lifting, patching, all that stuff that you would have had to do. How do the engineers sort of create value, post putting in this converged system? Now it's about performance metrics. So now we can provide metrics on a dime. We can now show upper management how the system is performing, how it's trending. We're able to make future decisions much quicker. We're able to know when we need to either expand or we need to look in a different direction for more equipment. It's really about being proactive. Too many times IT organizations are reactive and the whole thought process behind bringing in infrastructure like the VersaStack was how can we be more proactive? How can we look for future projects to bring in other types of systems that will allow our clinicians to treat our patients on a better basis? And Greg, this was a tech refresh, right? This was a, actually it wasn't, it was a tech upgrade. I mean, we could call it a refresh, but it was an upgrade. So I call it an upgrade for the software, but in actuality we had to build new infrastructure. We weren't just going to upgrade what we currently have. But you didn't retire the old systems? We didn't retire the old systems. And you're still running those? We are still running the old system and we actually just migrated our existing system to the VersaStack. So we're now at the point where we're throwing anything and everything at the VersaStack because it has performed so well. You said you had this thing in production in six weeks? We had it up and running in six weeks ready to deploy VMs. Ready for what, I'm sorry? Ready to deploy VMs. Okay, and so you were in production within two months? Within two months, we were in production. And then, talk about the business impact. We talked about the performance. So you dealt with the latency. You now got performance metrics that you can deliver. You were spending less time doing stuff that's not valuable. From a sort of financial perspective, what did that all mean for the company? You could do more with less. You didn't have to buy new equipment as soon as you might have to. How would you, when you're talking to the CFO, what'd I get for this? What would you do for me lately? What would you say? We're definitely doing more with less. I kind of touched upon it, but like I said, traditionally you siloed everything. Our EMR application was sitting in its own little storage array in its own virtual environment. VDI sitting in its own little virtual environment. The rest of our servers are sitting in its own little virtual environment. So I have three silos of arrays and virtual environments. And with the VersaStack, I no longer have to do that. This thing, it's handling everything with sub millisecond response time and I'm throwing anything and everything at it. So I'm able to combine all of that infrastructure into one platform. Going with all flash now, does that change how you have to manage kind of performance? I'm wondering, do you have to manage performance anymore or do you just now have plenty of speed for all your applications? I don't have to manage performance anymore at all. The only thing I need to look at is the reports. I can generate reports on demand and know where I'm going. How's the flash work, the all flash with the VersaStack? I'm not as well versed as I should be. So it's the IBM, it's the Texas Memory Systems piece that's now combined with the UCS to create VersaStack, is that right? And then, well, since it's the B9000, it has the SVC in front of it. So the same utility we were using to manage the B7000, we're using it for the 9000. Okay, so you're using the stack inside the sand volume control or the spectrum virtualizer. Sorry, I forget the brand name sometimes, but. Exactly, so it was in training for any of our guys. We already knew the system. We already knew how to use it. As we mentioned, we already knew how to provision storage. So that's, I've called it the gift that keeps on giving because, and I've said that about three par two, which is the true, but the SVC is, allows you to connect in virtually any devices. There's a migration component there as well. I don't know if you took advantage of that. We took advantage of it. As I mentioned, we took our existing because we're not live on the new system yet. Okay. So we're scheduled to go live on the new system in 2017. But our existing system, we were able to take advantage of the SVC and migrate from the existing V7000 onto the VersaStack. Okay, and so what's next for you guys? Exciting projects that you might be working on. Next is VDI. Really? We've been trying to get VDI into the hospital for several years now. We finally have gotten that project approved. It's something that we're kicking off where you're currently piloting it. And it's going on the VersaStack. And that's going to fly in the flash. Greg, I have to ask, are you familiar with hyper-converged infrastructure solutions that are out there? I am. Okay, so kind of give us why VersaStack fits or why you're not looking at some of those other solutions which tend to get a lot of buzz these days. Well, with our EMR system, they are very stringent on what they certify to run on their system. So at the time that we purchased, none of the hyper-converged solutions out there were certified to run the EMR system. So we had to go with a certified array. And the B9000 was a certified array. As I mentioned, we were looking for converged. So it kind of all married themselves together. And what does that mean, the certification? That's the compliance with HIPAA and whatever other security? It's what they've tested their software to run with. They have a specialized backup procedure. So their backups have to run on a certain array because it has to run the way it queuesces and backs it up. It has to be at a certain threshold. So they only certify certain arrays. Now, there's abundance of arrays that get certified, but we happen to be an IBM customer. We were happy with the V7000. We actually tried an off-flash 840 and we're very happy with that. So we knew what we wanted to do and the V9000 was certified to run the EMR. And so it was an easy choice for us. So you're able to now throw new workloads at this system without having to deploy new infrastructure. Is that the expectation you mentioned? That is the expectation. And that's what's going to happen. That's what's going to happen. We're going to push it until we can't push it anymore. How far do you think you can push it? I mean, you know, before- So far it's handled everything. Again, our infrastructure isn't different. We're not doing big data. We have standard types of applications and it's handling it easily. What's your database? We run SQL database. We run a lot of SQL, very few oracle, but it's mostly SQL. And relatively small databases, you're saying, right? Exactly. Great, give us a little bit of view as to your activity here at Edge. You go into the sessions, getting some hand-on-time, meeting with your peers. What's been exciting you? Yeah, it's a little bit different for me at Edge. This is actually my third Edge. I'm not doing the ton of sessions like I did the first two years. I am more networking and more meeting with people and clients as well. So I think I've gotten all I can get out of the sessions. I'm more of a reader, more of a networker, trying to hear what other customers are doing as well because I like to get ideas. So that's pretty much what I've been doing at Edge. What do you talk about your personal career, like objectives, as an infrastructure person? You've seen such change with virtualization not only at the storage layer, but across the entire infrastructure. Now you're seeing things like microservices and containers come in and change the application model. As an infrastructure pro, you get cloud as well. Where do you see your career going? What are your objectives for your career goals? Talk to your peers. What do you guys talk about in terms of where do we go from here? I'm looking at new ways we can increase the hospital, new ways that we can improve patient care. This was my first position into healthcare. I came from Silicon Valley. I grew up in Silicon Valley, worked there for years, and then introduced to Henry Mayo. So healthcare was new for me when I came here and it's been great ever since. And so we're always looking for new ways that we can increase patient care. If you grew up in Silicon Valley, so what's your take on what's going on at Silicon Valley these days? I don't know if you watch the TV show, I haven't seen it, but I've seen a couple episodes, it looks pretty funny, but it's quite a vortex of innovation, right? You live there, what are your thoughts on what's going on? It's a great show, my wife loves the show. I mean, we watch it, so it's a good show. The show notwithstanding, what about the Valley itself? I mean, you've seen the ebbs and the flows, the star, the dot-com bubble, the emergence of Google, Facebook, self-driving cars now. It's come back very well, I mean, I was actually in the heart of Silicon Valley during the dot-com, so I was there for the peaks, and I was there at the lows. And it's great that it's come back, it's good, we need the tech companies to come back. I'm all about tech, this is all about tech, so it's great that it's back on time. Well, you remember that, post.com, I mean, buildings were empty. Oh yeah. Nobody wanted to go there, and it was like, jobs were scarce. Yeah, it was for several years there. There were some tough times when it's come roaring back. Do you spend much time there now, as sort of trend spotting, or just, you know, just keeping up?  Yeah, but that's not part of your sort of surveillance and reconnaissance on tech. You just say, how do you keep up? It's reading. It's a lot of reading, and it's a lot of, you know, going to conferences like Edge. Yeah, so what conferences do you do? Do you do VMworld, or? I've done the VMworld. I do a lot of the medical conferences. Definitely have to stay on top of what's going on with our industry. But yeah, I do VMworld. I do Edge. I do the work there. So when you go to medical conferences, what are you looking for there? It's not obviously not talking about storage infrastructure, networking. Maybe you are, but I mean, it's more you're looking for other. It's exactly like what I'm doing here. I'm looking to see what other customers are doing in regards to the medical industry. It's different. You know, there are different EMRs out there, and none of them talk to each other. So it's challenging to try to get orders and medications to talk in the different EMRs. So what makes it different? Obviously the language is different. You're servicing doctors. That's a unique set of folks. The compliance and privacy issues are pretty intense. It's highly regulated, right? So anything else? I mean, what are the really factors that you've sort of learned over the last several years of being in here? Well, you know, I hear the stories that just about an hour ago, you know, one of my peers was telling me how, you know, they're in the hospital and it's hard to get the results that they go to one hospital and that patient has never been to that hospital before, but they are normally going to another hospital. How do they get that patient information or the medical record over to the other hospital? And that's where the big challenge is in the medical industry is how do you interconnect and how do you interface with the different EMRs? And that's a big problem. So what is it? It's architectures, it's standards, it's complying to privacy rules, right? And is EMR sort of designed to solve that problem or is that just sort of one small step? The EMR is just the, it's really the database, it's the medical record. You know, there's other things that go into that medical record. If someone happens to get, you know, break their arm and get to a CT scan, you know, that's a different system. How do you get that into the patient's EMR? So you can get the full picture and the full story of that patient. And then once it's in the EMR, you got to get it from point A to point B. Point A to point B. So there's got to be some protocol or standard that is consistent across those locations. And that's the difficulty is not every facility runs the same EMR. So how do you get them to talk to each other? Now it's getting better. There's interfaces that are built, but that's always a challenge and continues to be the biggest challenge in health care is how do you get it solved? Are you optimistic that, you know, in the next, let's say half a decade, that that problem will largely be solved and sort of? I don't know if it'll largely be solved, but with the regulations and the compliance and the standards that are now being set, I wouldn't say it's mandated, but it's imperative that the companies do work together better. And meaningful use is part of that as well, right? You've got to demonstrate, now that's in order to get paid, right? That's a stick, isn't it? It's both, it's in order to get paid and you have to be at a certain level for compliance reasons. So it's not just the payback feature, it's also, you know, of course everything is looking out for the best interests of the patient, so. And that's a moving target, is it not? Does it sort of evolve? You have to be at a certain level. You have to be at a certain level at a certain time and you have to constantly, constantly try and increase that level. So you're racing, if you had to look at the pie of how much time you spend sort of complying versus other stuff that you need to do, strategy or strategic initiatives, new projects, how much of that time that pie gets taken up by the compliance requirement? Well, thankfully, and not a lot of organizations have it, is we actually have a certain part of the IT organization that is actually dedicated just for compliance and is not dedicated for technology. Now, there's still some overlap there and I still have to adhere to regulations and I still have to work with them for any infrastructure that I do put in place, but it's gotten to the point where you almost need a dedicated team to just do the compliance part. But it's a small piece of your personal activity. It is. Well, that's good. Last question, would you talk to your peers about sort of things that you do differently or advice you'd give them? What's your guidance? I think my guidance is make sure that you partner with the right integrators and the right vars. Again, I cannot stress enough how important it was for us to use our integrators and our vars for helping us implement the versus. Yeah, you mentioned that before and is that a matter of expertise or is it bandwidth or both? Well, it's a matter of expertise and don't be afraid to interview them because we actually interviewed several different integrators before we decided upon the one that we did. We had used an integrator before and things always change. Maybe they might not know what the next integrator knows. So we interviewed several different implementation specialists before we settled upon the one that we chose. All right, Greg McCoy, thanks for coming on theCUBE. I really appreciate your time. Thank you. All right, keep it right there, everybody. Stu and I will be back. This is theCUBE, we're live from IBM Edge in Las Vegas.


You must be proud of yourself, Mr.  Thank you. Hey boy. Just set it down Mr. Paladin wine stewardstay this is brandy very special also very expensive. Oh very palatable Saki cheaper and faster, but sometimes cause you much trouble. You know hey boy Here in the West it's water that causes the real trouble. Oh, no, Mr. Paladin water Whoever got in the trouble cause they drink too much water. No, listen this item in today's paper Benedict Wyoming The refusal of a local rancher to permit access to the sole remaining source of water in this drought-stricken area Has resulted in the deaths of two men and threatened open warfare. Oh Mr. Paladin you plan to offer services in interests of drought-stricken area as a matter of fact I have a letter to a mr. Wellman of Benedict Wyoming here ready to mail. Will you take care of it? Oh, yeah, so Anything else me sir Paladin?  I Tied my horse to the hitching rail and went into the saloon What'll it be mister? Yeah Glass of rye you might as well fill mine again, Barney. Okay, Jeff hot Yeah Pretty quiet town No more than most You live around here. Yep How do I get to the Wellman Ranch? Take the North Road about three miles. Oh, thanks Yeah, it'll be a dollar You a friend of the Wellman's no Looking for work then In a way What's going on here? What's what's everyone waiting for? For me to get killed Jeff Casey just loaded in town Guess the waitin's about done That squares us Barney Maybe I'll see you mister He was slender Ranging maybe 19 Too young for the troubled seriousness in his eyes as he walked out of the saloon When I got outside he was already standing in a thick white dust at the street steady Watching the man advancing toward him. Don't Casey. There's no sense to this You want an apology all right, I apologize It's no good Casey listen to me, please Excuse me mister have to get my horse you killed that man. I know I Guess the town will have to keep on waiting There's a job open at the Wellman's now his The drought had taken its toll at the Wellman Ranch the house stood still and desolate in an expanse of bare scorched earth I Wrote into the yard in this mountain Then I let my horse to the watering trough. It was empty. I tried the hand pump Ah, oh How do you do ma'am the kitchen pump if you like? Yeah, I'd appreciate it's been a long ride Man and help yourself. Fine My name is Paladin. I'm here to see mr. Wellman. Well, he should be back soon The pumps by the sink. He'll need prime and thank you Mr. Yeah, you you just come from town. Yes Did did anything happen Man was killed if that's what you mean You know who His name is Casey. I believe I understand he worked for you. Oh, I was afraid when I saw him start away this morning Jeff did it Jeff Yes, so Senseless over nothing and there'll be more this Jeff didn't want to kill him. He tried to stop it No, no Jeff's alive Arthur Casey's dead young Calvert gun Who are you? He's he's mr. Paladin It just told me about it. I passed through Benedict on my way out here. I saw it happen your paladin, huh? Think you can stand up to Calvert if there's a good reason. That's your job. Get rid of him. I Don't think we understand each other. I offered my services to help you get water here This is your card isn't it the one you sent me yes have gun will travel That only means one thing as far as I'm concerned and it's the only reason I hired you Then we've both made a mistake mr. Wellman I'm not an executioner Constipation can be a problem for anyone even doctors and when constipation occurs It's interesting to see just what doctors consider important about a laxative. They might use or recommend Well, a majority of the doctors we heard from had this to say a Laxative should be effective gentle as close to natural acting as possible and A medicine that can be used with complete confidence Now x-lax has been popular with many doctors and millions of people over the years because chocolate at x-lax is Effective overnight it helps you toward your normal regularity X-lax is gentle next morning. It gives you the closest thing to natural action And that's why many doctors and millions of people use x-lax with complete confidence x-lax the laxative that helps you toward your normal regularity gently overnight is x-lax in your medicine cabinet The heat rose off the dry parched earth to hang in the air and sear every breath. I Was well on my way back to town when I heard someone coming up behind me fast Paladin I'm sorry. I was upset about casey. I wasn't thinking straight, but I need your help. We all do I told you well I didn't offer that kind of help look can I talk to you or not go ahead? We're desperate paladin our water holes are dried up Even our deep wells are going dry another week of this and our herds will be buzzard bait Calvert's trying to ruin us now. Why should a boy like that want to ruin you a boy? I'm not talking about Jeff It's his father Roy Calvert He owns the six iron over in the valley Roy Calvert. Yeah There was a gunfighter by that name the same man bought the ranch here three years ago What's he done? What's he got to do with your water supply? Now? There's a leak behind his ranch fed by underground springs never runs dry Calvert's land crosses the mouth of the valley It's the only approach to the lake now. He's fenced it off won't let our herds through There must be some local ordinance about that an easement or right of way. There's nothing in writing Folks just always used the lake whenever there's been a dry spell Calvert let us through the first year he come but not now. Why not? I don't know Two weeks ago Harry Craig got mad tried to drive his herd through Young Calvert killed two of his men Well his father's turned him into a worse killer than he was himself I'll tell you right now paladin the only way to break Calvert is to get that boy What do you really want mr. Wellman water or jeff's hide? I want results fast All right I'll get them for you, but In my own way, what are you gonna do? Talk with calvert At the gateway of the six iron ranch. I wondered if I was heading into trouble. I could hear gunshots I just mounted and moved toward the sound When I reached the corner of the barn I realized it was happening There was a crudely drawn silhouette of a man on the barn wall And roi calvert was working with his son Late in the second shot hit too high But I hit him he'd have been hurt.  What do you want? Five minutes of conversation the name is paladin paladin Yeah, I've heard of you. Did you get that job at the willman's anybody who works for wellman has no business here Anybody who'd deprive his neighbors of water has no business being a rancher So that's it Can we talk it over? Let me show you something Then you decide how much there is to talk over I followed calvert through the yard non-pass the ranch house To a pleasant tree shade of gnoll will overlook the valley below He stopped beside a mound of earth marked with a white cross Here's all I got to say paladin That's my wife's grave This town put her there 20 years. We were married Kind woman she was Good patient And lonely So lonely You must have loved her very much Takes that for a man like you to give up his gun I turned to this ranch because I wanted her to have a place where she could say hello to somebody and he wouldn't look past her Or somebody talked to her past the time of day like ordinary folks Name calvert was a death sentence to more than 20 men Did you think he could hide it? Nobody didn't know except for wellman. He found out and passed the word around And she was alone again Yeah Gunslinger's wife killer's wife When she took sick nobody came to call except the doctor Then she died I loved her very much This town killed her now i'm gonna kill this town calvert the ranchers will drive their way through He tried it once It cost him Maybe next time it'll cost you Not likely but jeff played my hand I have more respect for a man who plays his own Calvert had been hurt But now the ranchers in the town were being hurt somewhere it had to end I went back to see wellman at his place. I found him by the corral his horse saddled ready Well calvert gonna let us through wellman. I can't undo three years of hate in one afternoon Calvert told me about his wife wife, but Well, what do you mean? We never had anything to do with her. I I know That's just it Well, I know if we can't use that lake. We're wiped out now Can we get through or not as of right now?  Yeah looks that way They'll be fighting and shooting men will be killed men with wives and family Mr. Paladin, please now Wait a minute. Mrs. Wellman.  I'm asking you to measure one life against many Car owners, I have news of a product so new. It's amazing. It's here today at all It's new case. I'd smooth seal you say it's new you say it's new. So it's new. What does it do? Well, it's a fluid you add to your automatic transmission automatic transmission It stops the leaks in your transmission and makes it smooth and quiet makes it smooth makes it quiet How can I tell if I should try it?  That's how my transmission works boys If that's the case then you've got a case for new caseite smooth seal new caseite smooth seal How will that help?  We'll shoot it out You've killed three men already jeff Do you have a taste for it now?  What'll it be next he asked for it over nothing jeff when you set yourself up as the fastest gun There'll be men making you prove it until the day you can't paladin. Haven't we had enough talk this time you listen caliburton Wellman's getting the other ranches together. They're gonna drive their way through to the lake They're gonna try you mean the herds are going through tomorrow afternoon. I don't think so I'll see to it myself. I wouldn't if I were you If you have any objections I'll be in town all morning. We can settle everything right there. We'll be glad to bludge You were jeff me Well Getting easier all the time isn't it jeff You must be proud of yourself calvert You've turned your son into a killer and he's going to enjoy the same kind of life you have If he lives long enough Back in town word had got around that jeff calvert was riding in to meet me I waited in the saloon while men spoke and whispered and marked time Wellman was there too You might as well fill mine up again borner I Want to tell you paladin? I'm sorry about the way I talked yesterday. Wellman. It's late to clear a gilly conscious If you'd use that word sorry when calvert's wife died, this wouldn't be necessary I know that I did some thinking last night Paladin the calvert's just rode in town All right That squares us borny Well, I hope the show is worth the price All right jeff Anytime you're ready. It won't be self-defense this time jeff You'll have to draw first. No No paladin over here. What mate?  Are you all right? Sure You were wrong paladin I didn't turn my boy into a killer. Let's get him to the doctor jeff Unless we're not finished We're finished I got nothing to prove I'd like to help After he sees the doctor I I could drive him on home Calvert or maybe we can talk a little late for that well calvert When you came here you expected people to forget the past well Suppose you try it Let it end You're right Well, man, I I'd be much obliged to talk Hello. Hey boy. Oh, we saw paladin Oh too bad What what's too bad? You coming back you'll find san francisco Cold rainy fog creeping around everywhere. Oh miserable. What are you talking about?

What's up trade hackers welcome to today's update today's Tuesday April 14th starting with the trade hacker question of the day How is the value of an option calculated now? We don't really get into this that much in the courses just because the platforms do all this calculation for us However, once you want to start diving deep into the numbers into the data of the actual Values of an option. This is important to understand But the reason we don't too much in our courses a we're just we're teaching you how to trade and the platforms do all the Calculation for you, so it's kind of like why do you buy a watch? You know is it so you can take it apart and figure out all the intricacies and how it works Or do you buy a watch to tell you what time it is? We that's the approach that we take you know the platforms do all the work They're highly accurate and reliable and so they just kind of tell us what time it is But if you want to take a quick deep dive into how the value of an option is calculated The easy thing to do is if you go to the trade tab and think or swim and we're looking at SPY as an example These columns you can change and so I've just changed these to Intrinsic and Extrinsic and to do that you just click on it go to option Theoreticals in Greeks and that's where you see Intrinsic and Extrinsic and so what we'll look at today is just as an example look at the calls And what you'll notice is that all the in-the-money options have what is called? Intrinsic value and then all the options have what's called extrinsic value So the intrinsic value and the extrinsic value those together is what gives us the value of each specific option So for example, if we look at this option here the 269 strike What you're going to see is it's got an intrinsic value of 14 and a half plus the Extrinsic value of 10 and a half gives you a little over 25 now the markets open So it's moving around a little bit, but those added together is what gives you the actual Value of the options. So the question is what is an intrinsic and what is extrinsic? Well, if you take the price of the underlying stock So in this case SPY it's trading at about 283 65 and you see the strike that we're looking at is 269 so if you take 283 69 minus 269 That's where you're gonna get the intrinsic value So essentially that's the value that if you were to exercise that option today That is what it's worth and then so what is extrinsic value? Well, that is everything else that is the time value, you know Obviously as options get closer and closer to Expiration the extrinsic value goes away that time decay goes away. It's also the built-in projected volatility and presumed interest rate values, etc So it's it's all those things and so it's the intrinsic value plus the extrinsic value is What gives you the value of the underlying option that you're trading? So take it one step further if I right-click and I buy a call And let's just take this over the analyze screen since we are a lot of us are visual Learners and let me just just show the hypothetical here So this is a risk profile graph of a long call And so what you'll see is and if you keep your eyes on this box right here as I hover my mouse What you'll see is that obviously of the current price. We're at a zero P&L, right? No profit or no loss. We haven't put this up trade on so right when we put it on We'll be at approximately zero percent P&L if I hover over that current price look at the teal box at expiration It's about minus $1038 so that is the extrinsic value the difference between where it's currently trading and where it will be at Expiration that's that time decay component. That's the projected volatility and all that stuff built in to the price of an option So hopefully that helps if you were ever wondering how the value of an option is calculated All right, let's check out what's going on in the markets today Stocks up big S&P's up 75 Dow up 480 Nasdaq up 350 Russell up 20 Still got about an hour and a half left to go in the market But really strong strong market here even in the face of you know what I talked about yesterday the unemployment numbers and Everything else going on with the coronavirus now. We are starting to see that Leveling off of the number of cases and the number of deaths, which is you know presumably what the market is liking about this situation But like I've been saying on this entire rally up. I just I don't think we're out of the woods yet I still think we're gonna see some more downside So one of the things we did today is just layered in a little bit more short delta and keep in mind as I've been talking Over these last couple weeks as we've been seeing this rally and we've been layering the short delta keep in mind We are not overly short as our it's our members. No, we'd like to keep a range of short delta Anywhere from one to one to up to five to one Versus our theta so our short delta if we beta weight that to SPY we we like to get no more than five to one Well right now we're really at about one to one on that range So we could certainly Use even more short delta So I don't want you to think that we're just absolutely loading the boat and betting our mortgages that this thing is gonna go down But we certainly are continuing to position additional short pieces as this thing goes up because I just don't think we are out of the woods yet So that stocks oil making big move almost down 10% today. So even after the halt on Production, you know reducing the supply which you would think would push oil up oil is continuing its slide lower So interesting stuff there bonds down a little bit nady gas down about four and a half percent If you look at some of the stocks of what's going on in some of the main stocks that we look at I mean apples up over five percent Look at Amazon up over five percent I mean this thing is is continuing to now hit new highs if we look at it on a year-to-date Amazons up 20% year-to-date and and so obviously they're benefiting from a lot of people staying at home and ordering as opposed to going out Some of the others. Oh, I mean if you look at Tesla making a big move apparently up over 11 percent Apparently Tesla is okay with this and people all still all have the amount of discretionary income needed to drop a hundred k on a car One of our members genie in our community said yeah, maybe they're just buying their Tesla's and they're sitting in wind parking lot ready to go gamble again You know when casinos up four and a half percent today. So Interesting moves in the face of adversity throughout the market keep in mind earnings are starting to come out So we had a couple of banks announced today JP Morgan so the big banks JP Morgan is down after their announcement Wells Fargo announced this morning and They're down as well Goldman Sachs and Bank of America announced tomorrow morning before the bell and so you're seeing the banks You know kind of feeling some pressure right now if we look at one thing. I wanted to point out here So if we go back to JP Morgan Because they already announced earnings typically in the past in a quote unquote normal market what you'll see is After the announced earnings you're gonna get that implied volatility crush right now. It's here. We get a little bit of a crush That's not a very good example right here, you know implied volatility Goes up up up leading up to earnings and then the implied volatility gets crushed once they announce earnings And so what we're seeing here is you know implied volatility went down a little bit for JP Morgan You see the IV rank dropped a little bit IV percentile dropped a little bit But in no way would I call that an implied volatility crush like we are used to seeing after an earnings announcement So as I talked about last week in a video our normal kind of earnings related strategies We're taking a little step back in a little pause on those at this point because we're not getting that You know, I didn't think we would get that implied volatility crush You can see that there's still a lot of fear in this Uncertainty in this marketplace. I mean the IV percentile is staying above to 89 IV ranks at 36 So it has come down it the IV rank has come down some so the options are definitely Contracting from where they were just a couple weeks ago in the face of this rally But still we're not seeing that crush like you'd see after the uncertainties out of the market Which tells us there's still a lot of uncertainty So if you're gonna trade earnings, I would say be directional You know, if you want to take a shot that it's gonna go up or down and stay super super small You know, that's some of the things that we might be potentially doing but are typically premium selling strategies even iron ducks It's not something that I'm Interested in testing just yet just because of the really uncertain nature of everything going on So hope that helps everybody have a good evening. We'll talk to you tomorrow
