Here we are in QuickBooks Desktop get great guitars practice file that we set up in prior presentations if you're following along with another practice file that's okay because we're basically just going through the preferences which can be found in the edit drop down preferences down below noting that it's useful to look through a company file that has just been set up such as this one as we go through the preferences so we can note what the default preferences are and when those preferences might need to be changed depending on the type of company that we are working with going into those preferences last time we left off on the payroll so this time we're going to the to the reminders and then we're going to the reports and graphs starting with the reminders we've got the my preferences nothing there the company preferences is where we are at now a lot of these reminders are can be useful in practice but one they can also be a little bit annoying sometimes you might want to turn them off or go through here and decide which reminders are really relevant to you and then to when you're using a practice problem then the reminders often aren't as useful because of the time frame of the practice problem might not be in real time as you're entering data in real time three remember that if you are entering data into the system you might still not be entering the data in real time even if you're working in practice in other words you might be doing a bookkeeping or accounting process in real time entering data as they happen or for example you might be in a situation where you're doing bookkeeping for someone that needs a whole year's worth of bookkeeping done into the system as best we can get it so that we can file the tax return at the end of the year or something like that in which case again the reminders can be a bit of a burdensome problem because a lot of the transactions you're entering aren't being entered you know in real time that said let's go through them here we've got the up top we got show summary show list and don't remind and then we've got the items on the left hand side so check to print so note that if you have a checks that you're going to be printing in quakebooks you still have to like buy the external checks and when you enter the information into the system you can have the checks to be printed and then it could give you reminders you know to print the checks so I'm going to take that off I don't want to be reminded of that you've got the days to be reminded days before a check date so you could enter the checks you know early and then have them remind you on the check dates which could be a good system depending on your circumstances uh checks to print and these are the paychecks so similar kind of things they're still checks in essence but these are special you know processes the process is different it's a paycheck I'm going to once again turn that off invoices credit memos to print so you might be making invoices that are going out to somebody else and credit memos mainly invoices you would expect and once again you might be having them to be printing later and set them up so maybe you print them at the same time and send them out or something like that we're going to be thinking of sending out the invoices as we go those being the document representing that you made a sale on account and are going to receive payment in the future I'm going to turn that off uh overdue invoices so that's one where now the invoices is passed due so that could be a useful one giving you a reminder helping you to track you know and collect but I'm going to turn that off for the practice promise problem almost due invoices so 15 days before the due date and then and so that one's I don't have faded out here so we're going to keep that as is sales receipts to print so now we've got the sales receipts document which is going to be this item the other the other income reporting item on more of a cash based system once again I'm going to turn that off sales orders to print we don't have that here we got the inventory to record reorder so inventory to reorder so if we're tracking the inventory in the system we then can be thinking about you know what if the inventory gets low and we can set up various reminders that basically remind us to be ordering the inventory I'm going to turn that off bills to pay so we've got the bills to pay entering the bills over here and then paying the bills over here and say bills to pay I'm going to say days before the due date so it could be a useful reminder but normally I think you'd be checking the bills if you're working real time but it could be a useful tool I'm going to turn it off because we're not working real time and I don't usually use it in any case memorized transactions do so we can you can get all into these memorized transactions that can make things a little bit easier but and I think we have a section on that that you can we kind of specialize on that but I'm going to turn that off money to deposit going to turn that off so you've got the purchase order so the month notice that we might have money that we received from like receive payments and create sales receipts that then need to go into the deposit area and some kind of reminder could be helpful there possibly purchase orders to print that's on the purchasing side purchase order would only be used if you're buying inventory and you have an inventory system and not only are you buying inventory but you're in a system where you can kind of request the inventory they ship it to you before you actually build the inventory and then you'd be dealing with the purchase orders and you can have a you could deal with that but I'm going to turn it off to two due notes and once again I'm going to turn those off so all those are off and we could take it back to the default if you wanted to so if you go into these preferences and you want to see what the defaults are you can return them to the default if you so choose let's go to the reports and graphs now I'm going to save the changes it says you may changes do you want to save them that's basically what it says I'm paraphrasing and I'm going to say yeah this one we're going to go to the my preferences first so we're in the reports and graphs my preferences so prompt me to modify report options before opening a report so I would typically like it to do that automatically so I think the default of that being off is what most people would generally prefer when a report or graph needs to be refreshed prompt me to refresh prompt me to refresh so it could you know ask you to refresh refresh automatically I think this one would probably be best I would kind of prefer just to just refresh automatically I think the reports themselves generally do refresh automatically even when I'm on that default but I would have it refresh automatically don't refresh click help for information about refreshing a large report and graphs only draw graphs and 2d faster use patterns so we can do the 2d graphs or the 3d graphs when you're when you're looking at the graphs let's go to the company preferences we've got the summary report basis in accrual or cash now this option notice that you might be saying hey look I do a cash based system so maybe I want to report my stuff by cash meaning if I close this out I'm going to say okay I'm going to maximize the home page and if you go into your reports drop down company financial open like a profit and loss for example date and well it doesn't really matter if I and because there's nothing in the report right now but notice that it's on an accrual basis here as opposed to a cash basis you might say well I should have it on a cash basis as my normal basis because I enter data on a cash basis notice that normally unless you talk to an accountant that has a good reason for why you would go to an accrual to a cash basis on the report you still want them reported on a cash basis even if you're entering data on an accrual basis because if I go back to the home page really whether you're on a cash basis or accrual basis will depend on your entering data process and you could be on a cash basis for like the vendor cycle and an accrual basis in essence for the customer cycle or vice versa so in other words if you're down here on the revenue cycle if you just basically have gig work and you wait till something clears the bank like you have a youtube revenue or something like that and then it clears the bank and you record it as a deposit possibly with bank feeds then then you're just using a deposit form you're entering the data into the system on a cash basis in that way even further than a cash basis system because you're not actually doing it you're not entering it with a sales receipt would still be a cash basis but notice the report will still be reporting on a cash basis because you're you're basically entering the data on a cash basis if on the other hand you're in the type of company where you have to do the work enter an invoice track the receivable then you're using an accrual basis and you're going to have to enter an invoice and so that means that this little toggle here isn't really the determining factor as to whether you're on a cash basis or not it's really are you using accrual processes in the system so why do they have this toggle it could be it could be useful to convert you know uh your accrual reports to a cash report meaning if i if i use invoices and bills i'm going to end up with accounts receivable and accounts payable accrual accounts and if i toggle over to a cash basis on the report it's not going to report the income that i normally would record with an invoice until i receive the payment so it'll kind of convert it to an accrual basis so that's kind of an interesting toggle and maybe you have tax implications with it you know because you're reporting stuff on it on a cash basis on an accrual basis but for taxes you're on a cash basis something like that could be an issue with your tax returns and so on but uh normally you would keep it on on an accrual basis and also note that you have the statement of cash flows to help you to see the actual cash flows so you can see it on an accrual basis and then you got the statement of cash flows which is supposed to then give you that added information about the cash flows okay that's enough of that for now we'll go to the edit preferences and then reports so i'm going to keep it accruals the bottom line after all that aging reports so age from due date age from the transaction date typically you're going to put the aging reports from the due date that's going to be the accounts receivable aging and the accounts payable aging because that's when the money is actually owed to you so that's the typical custom we'll keep that reports show items by name only description only name and description when we're looking at items we're thinking inventory items and service items typically and i think you know we'll keep the default typically of having the name and the description in when you enter the item you enter the name of the item and then you have a description field that you can enter as well so in some cases you might have a short name for the item to make it a shorter length sometimes you might have the same name as well as the description the description is what will actually be in the reports on invoices and whatnot when you when you fill out an invoice and then you have an inventory or service item it'll populate the description there on the reports we'll have the name and the description okay so reports show accounts by name description name and description so when we enter an account into the system we usually just enter a name that in that case so in other words if i went to the list and chart of accounts notice we've got the name of the account and then the account type that's the essential information when you enter an account if i was to add a new account i'm not going to actually add it but if we just kind of go through the process we got the account type here let's just choose an expense account and then go next and then you've got the name that's usually what you're going to be showing stuff by but you can also put a description down here the description field isn't required it's usually the case that you're going to be demonstrating it or showing it showing on a report by the name not the description so and then you might have account numbers that we talked about in a prior presentation we won't be dealing with those this time and this practice problem edit drop down preferences again so there is that statement of cash flows classified cash now the statement of cash flows is one of the primary reports you got the balance sheets you got the income statement or profit and loss and then the statement of cash flows and then all other reports are typically going to give you some added information added detail expand upon one or multiple line items of the main two reports the balance sheet and the income statement or profit and loss the statement of cash flows although it's a major financial statement report you can think about it as kind of a subsidiary report in that you're kind of converting from an accrual basis if you're on an accrual basis to kind of a cash basis with the statement of cash flows but it's also taking a step further than that in that it's kind of reconciling the net income on on the on the income statement on an accrual basis to what the net income kind of would be if under a cash basis so therefore you when you're actually creating the reports if you were to do it by hand you would typically make the balance sheet and the income statement as you do financial transactions meaning you enter the forms which enter journal entries into the general ledger it creates the trial balance the trial balance creates the balance sheet and the income statement and then at the end of the period month quarter year you might then make the statement of cash flows based on the balance sheet and the income statement so in other words you're not typically constructing the statement of cash flows as you enter the data into the system you're taking the end result that you have constructed as you enter the data balance sheet income statement or profit and loss to make the statement of cash flows which is going to try to give you that information on a cash flow basis but because of that it's it's it's can be a little bit confusing to actually construct the statement of cash flows and it's going to take the difference in the balance sheet accounts basically and if you go into here it can help you to kind of see where the classifications are for the three components of the statement of cash flows operating investing in financing you can see it basically takes the change in the balance sheet accounts down to here because these are income statement accounts and then and that's how it kind of constructs the statement of cash flows it's not a perfect system this way but it does give you something that will pretty much always tie out to basically the balance sheet cash account and so if you want to learn more about the statement of cash flows and how to construct it it really helps you understand the double entry accounting if you can actually make a statement of cash flows then it really helps you understand the double entry accounting system we have a whole course on that in more detail but that can help you to classify the accounts default formatting for reports so we'll keep that there collapse transactions select this checkbox to combine collapse multiple items in a transaction into a single line so when you're entering data this will make it the data as slim as possible to enter the information into the system although you'll lose some of the added fields that might be there if you if you didn't have that collapsed i typically keep it uncollapsed you can do some of your data input if you so choose and test out whether or not it'd be faster for you to kind of collapse here but i'm going to keep the defaults as they are on this one so let's close that out we're going to continue on with our preferences and future preference presentations


Meanwhile, Oyo State Deputy Governor Adebayo Lawal has said that his principal, Shaii Makin Day, Shaii Makin Day supports their fanfare leaders on their preferred choice of presidential candidate for the 2023 election. Lawal, who represented Makin Day at the meeting between our fanfare leaders and Bola Tinobu, presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress, APC in Akure, the state capital of Undustied, said the Oyo State Governor has always been in support of the decisions taken by a fanfare leader. Meanwhile, Lawal's remarks also come amid the crisis in the People's Democratic Party PDP of which he and Makin Day are members.

This paper examines the validity of the traditional models proposed by Paul Ekman, which defined six basic emotions, in comparison to more recent models that describe emotions as social and linguistic constructs. It also explores the impact of Alexithymia or difficulty expressing emotion on the accuracy of these models. The study found that traditional models were not sufficiently accurate in capturing the complexity of everyday life emotions, but that they did provide better results than the newer models when applied to tweet data. Additionally, it was found that individuals with higher levels of Alexithymia had greater difficulty identifying and categorizing emotions. This article was offered by Sarah Coppany, Chiara Lucifera, Camelo M. Vicorio, and others.


Hello there!  This is a sketchbook from Lake Michigan Book Press and Lake Michigan Book Press does custom sketchbooks. She has some that are standard that are listed on the website but you can customize the paper that you put in it. You can say how many pages you want in it, what kind of cover you want on it. There's lots of different ways to customize them if you wish and I asked for one that would have 365 pages in it which is called the sketch a day and it's taken me a long time to get through this mostly because I go through phases sometimes I'm just obsessive and I paint watercolor every day and then other times I get busy on other things and I've been doing a lot of pencil and pen sketches lately so I have not given this sketchbook much love and I am determined to finish this one by the end of the summer. I'm about three quarters of the way through this and I'm going to do another sketch today which will be a study of wet in wet with a little bit of wet on dry at the very end of it. Just a quick sketch and it might be a nice way for you to practice your own control of the water and the pigment but yeah. On Saturday I'm going to do something similar. I'll do a larger painting that'll be not this particular painting that I'm doing today but if you'd like to paint along with me I will put some information in the doobly-doo about exactly what supplies you might want to have on hand. I haven't filmed that yet so I don't know what those will be but I thought it would be nice to do a paint along if you're interested. It'll be something really simple that doesn't require sketching but I will work from a photo so you can have that downloaded ahead of time. So let's get started on today's sketch and cover another page in this book. I went out plein air painting with a couple friends recently and had a bit of a fail with my painting because I haven't been doing a lot of plein air watercolor lately and I totally lost control of my wet in wet painting and I needed practice with that so I'm doing lots of practice at home to just remind myself of how wet the paper needs to be, how much pigment I need to use, and how wet that pigment should be at each stage of the painting. A small study like this is helpful. It's going to be necessary for me to work larger because part of the problem was that I was working outside. It was very humid so things weren't drying quite right. I didn't have patience and I was also working vertical. Here I'm working horizontal just because filming is easier horizontal but when you're working vertical the pigment also slides downward on the paper and just there's lots of control issues but nonetheless I've got the paper really wet and I put some soft blue shapes in the background and then the water in the foreground and I'm just going to let those melt out. They're going to get really soft by the time this is done. As long as the paper is wet the pigment is going to continue to move and if you don't want to move then you want drier paper but if you want a really misty look and that's what I was going for here that's what I was trying to paint when I was outdoors. I just couldn't get that misty look if I had done the painting on dry paper because I wouldn't get those soft edges. So I've got some green gold that I'm dropping into the ground areas and some darker greens in the trees and I'll just put a very very hazy line of trees off in the distance just so I get that curve of a river winding through here. I have no photo reference for this by the way I'm just making it up out of my head to just get some practice done and I'm just going to start thickening up my pigment now because those pigments that I painted with already were very wet. There's just lots of water in there and now I'm going to just beef it up so that I can start creating some more distinct shapes. That first bit was just establishing in general where the spits of land are going to be and where the trees are going to be and now I can start adding in a few darker areas. The thicker pigment is not going to soften out as much. It's still going to get really soft but it's not going to blend out as much but it's going to start giving me that real misty kind of look that I wanted to create. As long as the paper stays wet then that pigment is just going to keep moving. If your paper gets dry then you can always just spritz it really lightly with water but if you can get that water consistency right at the beginning then you can start to figure out how long you have to paint all the shapes in there and that's where practice comes in because there's no way I can say you know you paint this much water down and then you have two minutes to get the rest of such and such done in order to get this effect. That's just not possible so practicing yourself just so you know what your pigments do and how you paint just know that there are sometimes working quickly is going to really help a lot. So I've put two different colors for just different tree colors on the left and right just to give it some variety mixed up a really thick pigment and I'm using my needle brush and this needle brush has a large belly and a very fine tip so I can get some nice calligraphy marks just you know little dancing brush strokes but I'm also using really thick pigment so some of this is going to give me more control more detail and the pigment is going to move less. The drier paper it's still very wet but it's not it's not as wet as it was in the first place the drier paper is going to help this pigment stay in place as well as the thickness of the pigment the thickness of the paint that I've got mixed up because if you're using paint that's mixed really thin it's going to blend out into whatever water or whatever pigment is already there the thicker it is compared to the paper it's going to stay put more and I wanted to just get another level of soft blending versus you know really crisp detail with a lot of contrast but notice that the tree trunks that I painted in there in the first place are already melting out one of the things this starts to give you is a whole set of layers of softness and that's what I was trying in the plein air painting that I did I wanted these layers of trees where I was in a forest and trying to paint like the foreground trees really crisp and distant ones really soft and I just couldn't figure out how to do that so I can't wait to go back to that location once I get some practice under me and see if I can if I can fix that and if I can learn how to do that because I just have a great vision for this clearing that I wanted to paint that was among some trees so I've decided I'm going to mix the pigment even thicker and put more in there and the first ones disappeared these will stay a little bit more but again the paper is still wet so this will soften out you can keep going with this until you decide you've got enough of those layers in there of the soft edges and and just you know keep layering and layering because all the ones that are underneath that are you know the earlier layers that got really soft those will continue to melt out until you decide okay now is the time to zap it so I've got my heat gun out to dry it so that then I can add in some very crisp details now when I'm out painting plein air I don't have a hairdryer with me and I was joking with a lady who walked by she was just a random person walking through the park and she was also a watercolorist and she's like oh I see you're having water management troubles they need to have a little plug out here in one of the trees so you can plug in a hairdryer or something I'm like yeah that would be nice but instead what I needed to do is just be patient I needed to lay the painting flat and just wait and give it a good half an hour but I didn't want to I wanted to keep painting so gonna have a better strategy next time but now I'm painting that same thick pigment on top of dry paper because it's all completely dried and now the pigment is only going to move where there's water so as long as I'm not using much water at all I get really crisp edges and that's where I can do my calligraphy that I love to do and I call it calligraphy I don't know I've heard a couple of my teachers call it that um not sure if that's an official word for it but it feels like that it feels like handwriting and the way that you do any kind of calligraphy on your work is going to be different than anybody else because it's the way you wield your brush and this needle brush does that really beautifully because I can get that that fine tip where the the belly of the brush narrows down I can lay it down on its side and get some larger areas in there and create some dry brush look this brush has a lot of versatility when you get to this phase of adding it in it's perfect for trees it is an expensive brush and I have tried a couple other ones and maybe I'll try doing a video sometime comparing them I have not found another one that works the way my da Vinci's work and I have a couple sizes in the da Vinci but the these brushes just are so nice and the way they operate is very different possibly because these are also stable brushes and the other ones that I've bought I've been trying to look for other ones because I want to find something cheaper for those who want to do this kind of work in your painting but you don't want to spend as much on the brush I've been looking I really have have not found anything that works quite the way this one does but now I'm I'm mixed in a little bit more water because I was finding I was getting way too much thickness in the paint it was just hard to move things around and as I was going to work on the land a little bit adding some grasses and scrub underneath of the trees a little bit of water makes a difference and if you're using another brand of brush because I know a lot of you have you know bought some when you found a needle brush somewhere oh that looks like sandies if you're struggling with it then just mix more water in it or mix it thicker and try both and see which works better because those other brushes I found that I had to add more water which means you can't get really dark dark darks when you're adding a lot of water to try to get the brush to release the color so it there's pros and cons to all different kinds of brushes and no brush is going to make your work do what you want it to do you have to do what you want it to do it's there's no magic bullet in finding a brush and picking out one like that so peel off my tape and my little sketch for today is done another page covered in my sketch book hopefully this was helpful to you I'll see you on Saturday and watch the doobly do here as well as the premiere that I will post so that you can get a list of supplies and stuff from either this video or that one about what to bring with you I'll see you Saturday take care


So with many product line-ups, we know what's coming next. They have a life cycle. So some products will come every 12 months and others every two years. But then every now and again, something comes along that we weren't expecting. It's a bit of a shock. And in today's video, we look at a new lineup of products from TaylorMade. And it is a lineup that is first of all, very impressive but also will make the competition take note. Now, it's fair to say the premium putter space market is, well, it's been dominated by a number of brands. I think Scotty Cameron being top of the pile, Bettenardy, the Toulon designs in terms of the Odyssey putters, and then you've got the likes of Evenroll. Now, TaylorMade have obviously had a premium lineup but this is the first time that they've really entered into that CNC milled face putter space. And they've done it in a big way with a lineup that is known as TP Reserve. That was a decent first roll and we'll talk about what I think of these putters very shortly, but before we do that, maybe take a look at the lineup because there are plenty of models to choose from. Every shape and profile to suit every putter type and style. I must admit so far, I'm drawn to this mallet. Have we got it right this time? Almost. Now there are two things for me of real interest in this lineup and the first being the precision milling and the shaping of each and every one of these profiles. They really are incredibly easy on the eye. A superb finish, a premium finish, as you would expect if you're gonna enter into this marketplace, like I said. But then the interesting thing for me is the kind of, you'll see on every model is some perimeter weighting. That perimeter weighting means that we've got some high MOI, which is of course, in simple terms, forgiveness. I'm just gonna get this other model out and believe me, I'm only gonna try and quote them because there are so many. This is a TRB31, it's a blade style putter. I'm just gonna see if we can get that up close. Have we got that in focus, Han? Maybe not. Yeah, we go.  There's a lot of weight and mass been removed from directly behind the club face to be able to be spread in and around the perimeter of these putters, which again, has been allowing these to be more forgiving, more stable. And particularly interesting for me in this B31 model is that I would naturally always be drawn to a mallet of lots of putts with this over the last few days. I'm being really surprised at just how stable it is. But once that stability thing is sunk in, we've got that bit. We've got the fact that these things look good. How do they sound and how do they perform on the greens? Today's video is brought to you in partnership with HotGolf, the online golf mega store bringing you the hottest deals in golf. And of course, the club's featured in today's video. Find the link to the HotGolf website in the description below and check out some incredible giveaways and offers. The interesting thing for me and the challenge that Taylor made have is that they're very much known for, I would say they've spied that line up there mallet of by far. The first thing I think about putters and Taylor made that is where I would go to in terms of a mentality perspective. And the challenge they've got is they've got to get these putters in the hands of their tour pros first of all because I think they've got to buy into this concept of these new premium line of putters. And then I think they've got a genuine chance of likes of you and I trying these things as well because right now, that's Rory puts one of these in his bag. They're gonna have a bit of a struggle. But what I can tell you is in terms of the performance on the greens, they're super soft. They're super premium. It's as simple as that. They've done an incredibly good job of first attempt into this space. Another TP line up has always existed but this is a step further again in my opinion. And like I said, super soft off the face and I can't help but be impressed but I'm really keen to know are we gonna see one of these putters from the line up in the likes of the hands of Rory, Mora Kawa and such like because I think that will make a big difference. I think that's something that will really please. That could be him. Yeah, we've got one. And that could be a really positive development for TaylorMade and I'm sure they're working on that right now. I think I just wanna reiterate that point about this B31 and I've only tried two putters the mallet style that I've got on this B31. And like I said, I can't stress enough the stability that's in this thing that is very, very surprising indeed. The other thing that I would stress is something I've already mentioned as well which is how soft they feel. They're absolutely superb. And like I said, there is no doubt that these are a premium build and will certainly challenge all the names I've mentioned in terms of the quality that build and the performance. The question is, are they gonna get into the hands of the people, you golfers out there that are currently spending your money on the likes of Scotty Cameron's, very much a loyal following, can TaylorMade persuade you to give these ones a go? So the question I'm asking you in that comment section below I'd really love to hear from you.  Now I'm asking these questions about would you give these a go and would you be prepared to try them? But I think one key element that I've not discussed as yet is the price point of these things. From what I'm seeing, they are selling at the moment on most online stores at 379. Now that of course is, turn. That was a misread and good pace though. That of course is again in that premium price category so it's something you've really got to consider. And like I said, I think TaylorMade have got a job on their hands getting these into their hands of golfers out there. Once they do that, once they get them in the hands of their tour pros as well then I think you're all going to realize that this is, it might have been a shock in terms of what TaylorMade have done releasing these putters into this market space right now. I didn't see this one coming but I think it's a real good move and I think it's a real good product they've got that they will no doubt as ever build on in the years ahead. So if you're looking at a new putter, if you're going to spend big money, if you're in that 350 to 400 pound price category then my advice would be don't go for the obvious choice, make sure you give these things a go because if like me, I think you'll be super impressed. Right, we've been filming that one in the rain. Thank God we finished, it's short and sweet today. As ever, thanks for watching. Don't forget to give me your feedback to that one question. Are you going to give these a go and we're going to take some cover. I'll see you all tomorrow night.


Welcome everyone to the April 14th hyperledger technical steering committee call as you are all aware. Two things we must abide by on this call the first is the antitrust policy notice that is currently displayed on the screen. And the second is our code of conduct which is linked in the agenda. So standard announcements that we have the first one the depth weekly developer newsletter goes out each Friday. If you have anything that you would like to see added to that, please add a comment on the wiki page. And then the second announcement is that the hyperledger global forum is still accepting CPS until April 29. Just about two weeks away now. And if you have anything that you would like to talk about at the hyperledger global forum, please submit your CFP. And then also, I believe a heart is still correct that the program committee volunteers still open for people to volunteer. Absolutely Tracy, if you're interested, please feel free to reach out. We're also still reaching out to people. We have a number of people who have already said yes. So thank you very much if that's if you're one of those people. And if not, we'd love to hear from you. So thanks a lot. Great. Any other announcements that anybody would like to make. I think Daniela has a minor announcement. She's muted. Which is that the forum for our event in Dublin. Oh, okay. Yeah, so we will be having our hyperledger evening event at the Guinness storehouse, which is the premier place for for activities in Dublin. So cheers to us all and we'll see you there. All right. Thanks Daniela. Any other announcements that anybody would like to make. Okay, seeing no hands and nobody coming off mute. I take that as you know. So we got in the hyperledger cactus quarterly report that is due today. I know that some of you have already had a chance to look at it. If you haven't yet had a chance to look at it, please do so. I think the, there was one question that I asked and Peter took care of that. So I think, unless anybody has any questions right now. I think that's probably it for the reports, but does anybody have any questions on the cactus report. Okay. So no questions there. So Dave did let us know that he'd be putting the fabric report together so we should be seeing that one coming shortly as well. So as you're thinking about reviewing the cactus one if you haven't already, please also take a look and see if the fabric one is available. So the reports that are due next week, the next one that's due is hyperledger saw to you. And as far as I know, we don't have any specific TSE business to discuss but if so, please speak up now and we can talk about anything that people would like to talk TSE business wise. So then I guess I know it's up to you to take us through the work that you've done for us already on the TSE responsibilities. Thank you. Actually, well, should I ship is going to write do you want to click on the link you had in front of you. Sure, I well I didn't know if you're going to like speak. It doesn't really matter to me that either way works. So, I mean, for everybody, you can just click on the files changed and there's only one so. So, as you know this is about adding a page that this that describes the responsibility of TSE members. And so, I figured we didn't really need a task force because I don't know that there is much discussion needed. And the most effective way forward was to actually put the PR together. And so this PR is the one we are seeing now, and it basically adds one page to the, to the TSE space, which would be rendered on the TSE website. I, this page basically starts listing the, the, the role of the TSE that comes from the charter. So that's something that we have to accept. If we disagreed with any of this, we would have to go back a governing board to revise the charter, but I don't think any of this is controversial. Nobody has ever raised any objections to this. So instead, you know, I think the more interesting part is the next sections, which, you know, is something that is not listed in the charter, but that based on my experience with now many years as a TSE members and then as well as chair, I figured it would be good to list several things that I think are expected of us. And, and so I, I got feedback from Tracy that I incorporated. So can you scroll down a little bit. So this is the most important part, right? So we can look quickly at TSE members. I guess pretty straightforward. You have to participate in TSE meetings, review the TSE project updates, which we just did bring up and help resolve any issues related to the need of the community and participate in an optionally chair the task forces set up by the TSE. That's the kind of stuff we do. And I attended one project meeting a month. And so, you know, it's interesting because somebody said do we really want to have this in there and I think it was our room but it doesn't matter. I felt like, yes, I mean, this is a decision we've made. We said we would do this. And I figured, well, we should just list that. And, you know, we're not the police. We're not tracking what people are actually doing. It doesn't really, that's not the point. I think the point is really to set the expectation. In particular, when we do the TSE election every year, you know, people can have a look. We can point to this and say, hey, you want to nominate yourself or be nominated, you've been nominated by somebody to run on the TSE election. And this is what the same tells.  I mean, it was funny for me. Tracy didn't think it was so funny, but you know, after she got elected, I had a chat with her and I started listing all the things that just the brains, you know, it was kind of a brain dump. And there were two things that I was doing as chair. And there were a lot of things that she didn't know. She kind of laughed and say, oh gee, nobody told me about all of these things before I ran. And thankfully, I don't think she would not have run for that matter. But I think it's, it is true that, you know, some of these things not necessarily completely obvious. I think it's good to set an expectation so that if people are interested in running for chair, they should know what it entails.  You know, you may also have realized that TSE always gives an update at the Global Forum as well as the Member Summit. You may be aware that the TSE chair is also on the governing board, which adds a few meetings. And during those meetings, we are invited as chair to give an update on what's going on in the TSE. So typically you can have a, well, I used to have only one slide. And you can have a couple of slides, but you have like 10, 15 minutes to give an update on what's going on. And then there's also the last bullet, which I think was the most surprising maybe to Tracy is, you know, the fact that we are also in contact with the staff who, you know, will reach out to the chair when they have inquiries from external parties. It can be the press, it can be some analyst who want to know a bit more on the technical side what's going on. And typically this can be a collaboration between the staff and the chair as to how to respond to these inquiries but this is, you know, something that chairs, you know, do. And so then we added the section and Tracy for bringing that one up and forgotten but we added a small section on the vice chair, since we have a vice chair, explaining what the primary responsibilities are, which you as you know is to run the TSE meeting when the chair is not available, but also to help. So I think this is something Tracy you put in place I didn't really do that I think but reaching out to projects when they miss submitting their TSE quarterly project updates when they're missing. So this is kind of, you know, I hope none of this is is controversial. Now, if is there any questions about this because then there's a couple of questions that came up in the comments that I think we should discuss, especially one. So I don't see anybody raising their hands or anything so I assume this is non controversial which I would expect them to be honest but so now if we go back right to the, to the page the course conversation page. We can look at the comments. So there was this issue about, you know, attending meetings, a room saying, do we really need this. You guys can decide, you know, if you disagree with it the status quo is in it, and a room does not further responded I don't know if you want to do that now. Are you okay with keeping it. Go ahead. Right. Oh, I mean I intentionally did not respond because I did not know what else to respond. I'm fine with the explanation so far. Probably I should have just said, okay. We can call that result. And, and then the other one is a rune suggested we add something about the responsibility for TSC members to act as two words or ambassador for the hyper major foundation. I actually think it's, it's a good idea. This is definitely something I have been doing. And not just when I was a chair. I mean, in general, I, you know, I participate in many conferences, and we'll talk about hyper ledger I often talk about hyper ledger fabric next, but I always give an introduction about hyper ledger where I explained a bit about the different I've been involved in the European blockchain forum, for instance, and I'm a member of the expert group there. And, you know, one of the things that I've been doing there for several years now is talk about what we do at hyper ledger to make sure that they are aware.  And so I think it's quite appropriate to bring that up but at the same time, this, I realized this is not nicely something everybody feels like they, they want to sign up for. So, I didn't really want to just add it, because for me it was not as obvious as the rest. I said we should discuss this. And so, in my opinion, we have three, we have basically three options is one we say, we don't add this at all. The other is, we add it as a must this is what's expected, or it's like, you know, an optional kind of activity that people may take.  I, I, the page is on responsibilities and personally I would feel uncomfortable, you know, telling people that it's your responsibility to be out there front and center, because as you noted some people are or are not comfortable doing that. I raised my hand before you offered the third option, which I think would be the way to do it as not a responsibility, but I would phrase it more as an opportunity for people who want to, you know, get out there and and talk in public and that's how I would go. Tracy. So I, I don't, I think there are many ways that you can act as an ambassador or steward, and I don't think it has to involve speaking in front of an audience of hundreds. Right. So it could be answering a question on the chat channels if you know the answer to it I think it could be, you know, helping somebody get involved in contributing to the project that you're participating in or the working group or the task force right just being welcoming to people in the community is acting as an ambassador or a steward for hyper ledger. And so I just I want to make sure that we don't conflate the two of speaking at conferences with being an ambassador and I think that being an ambassador or steward is definitely, you know, something that I wouldn't have a problem adding. But so what you're saying is if we added we have to be careful. I mean to kind of specify what this entails. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, well, I think you could, I think you could add it as saying an ambassador or steward of the hyper ledger foundation and provide examples of ways that you might do that instead of saying this is the only way that you can act as an ambassador or steward. Yeah. Okay, that's what I meant. Yes, okay. Sounds good. Nathan. I think it's we're not trying to be prescriptive, but someone has to do with this statement so much as setting expectations. And I think it is a good thing to tell potential TSC members. David or Sean might reach out to you and say hey there's a panel at this conference. Are you interested or can you help with this webinar. And I think most of the maintainers who would run for the TSC kind of already expect that because they've seen TSC members do those sorts of things, or they've participated in that that kind of thing themselves is just. It's a good thing to have on the list. All right, so I hear. For now, the people express themselves into being favor of hiding something and being careful about, you know, how we word with this entails but any other opinions or hot. Yeah, I agree. I mean I think it's not unreasonable to ask TSC members to sort of pitch in and help out with, you know, some things but certainly how that occurs should be open to them. You know, Ryan others are absolutely right that not everybody wants to go in front of, you know, huge numbers of people at conferences or things like that, but there are lots of other ways to be a community steward, as Tracy pointed out. I really liked how Tracy put it. I did want to point out and I wanted to make sure that it was public before I did. This is the, the LF mantra right humble helpful hopeful. And that is something that I think encapsulates a lot of what Tracy said about answering the questions. You know if you can if you can answer or redirect someone. You know, that's that's perfect. So anyway, I just wanted to share that. All right, thank you all right. Okay, any other opinions. Okay, if not, I think, you know. So this is the only thing left I believe right if you scroll down I think that's it. So, if we're in agreement. Well then there's a question of the table of contents and how way it fits in the page but I don't think anybody is worth our time discussing here. Kamalish good. So, this is regarding the point number four and five like come into getting with the external industry organization concerning the technical methods and especially a point five, appointing representative to work with other open source communities. So, what is this one, like, what other block other like like it didn't come to see another one of the open so maybe there are like had it has been maybe it will block change all is a different backup, right, please. I think it's part of our rooms. comment right is that what you mean. I'm asking the point number four and five in the TSC response that is in the page. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you mean at the, at the beginning of the page. The file change and then open the file. Good point. So, this is the part that's from the charter. Okay, so what is your question now. My question is like appointing representative to work with open source in a standard community. So, if someone that yes he is part of this kind of commit committees that they need to convey this message or update to the hyper ledger or what is all about. So, my understanding on this is we haven't done that. We have never that I know of. So, I think I would know. I don't think we have ever formally appointed any representative to work in other organizations.  I am kind of conducting the hyper ledger works out there. So, I just want to be sure like whether this is right or this is not right. Because I do learn is also the open source community and kind of, but they are not focused on the any specific lock and is a generic blockchain. Yeah, so my understanding of this and again this comes from the charter right so my understanding and others may have a different point of view but it is always the I mean I'm also involved in other organizations right quite a few. And so, clearly, you're entitled to do this. And, again, when you're in those organizations you can act as a steward for the hyper ledger foundation, not only because you're a member of the TSE but just because you're involved you can talk about what's going on. So, you know, when SSF I've given feedback on, you know, the, the, the vulnerability disclosure guidelines when we start looking into it. And so, I think that's totally fine. I think this point is provided because there may be situations where we actually want to appoint formal representative where say there is an activities that somewhere else. And as a community we say, you know what we should have some somebody representing us there. That's my take on this. But again, I mean we've never really done that. And so, I don't think the situation has arise. So, Yeah, that was my take on that to our nose. My sort of scenario is imagine that, like, you know, the EA is doing like an interop committee slash working group right. And, you know, hyper ledger is officially a member of the EA and we should have someone following it. So we say okay Peter, go join this committee as the hyper ledger representative. So, so that's what I sort of imagine this provision working as and we really haven't ever used it. But there's no reason we couldn't. See how I don't know Peter. So in this situation that's actually not allowed. If it's a formal organization, it has to be staff members. Now, if those staff members are also employees of companies that are members of those other organizations, then, you know, then that they still can't be official members or representatives of hyper ledger. And that's just due to most of those organizations bylaws. Of course, I mean, we do not. Yeah, we do not by joining hyper ledger foundation by joining the EA or anything else does not provide the ability for anyone in our community to, or members to be then members of staff, just that's a little caveat point. Yeah, but that's a good point.  We should collaborate. We should certainly collaborate. Okay, but so all right so I thanks for bringing that up I hope this clarifies it. I think this is interesting reason we have never really talked too much about this but so it's a good opportunity to do so. And kind of, they don't set everybody's expectation as to what a charter says. But so, what I meant to say next was, if we have general agreement, then what I suggest is, I will update the, I will update the PR, accordingly, and then I would really invite everybody to have a look at it. And indicate, please, on the PR, if you approve, and we have, you know, enough approvals, then we can just merge it and we're done. Of course, this is like everything else, it can always be updated later on if we find anything else. It's in GitHub after all. Does that sound good? Or any issues or concerns with this? No? Okay. So Tracy, that's it I think. Okay. So thanks Arnaud for taking us through that. As you can see, we are at only half past the hour or maybe at the couple of hours depending on where you're located. And we have made it through the agenda. I will say that there are things from previous task forces that have been done on the wiki. And if you haven't commented on those yet, and you would like to do that, please do so. Specifically, the Project Families Task Force has some updates to materials and some commentary. So please have a look and participate there before we have the next call to go through that. Which at this point I think is two weeks away. Next week the plan is to go through the Project Health Dashboards Task Force and have a look at what's there. Right in the comments, there's some commentary down there at the bottom from Jim as far as his action item and what he was proposing. So if there's comments there that you guys would like to, provide some input on some of the tagging that's there. The other thing that has been done on this particular task force is the website personas wiki page that's underneath there has some, just some thoughts about different sorts of personas that will be visiting the Hyperledger website that, you know, may or may not exist. There's other ones that you think may exist, please add to that page as well, as we go through so just reminding people that just because we're doing this in the TSC meeting doesn't mean that we shouldn't be doing things offline as well. And yeah, if there's anything else anybody would like to discuss today now's the time. How do we how do we think the task forces are working out during the TSC meeting. So I think it's a good user for the calls actually. I'm pretty happy with the way it's going. I saw three, at least three thank them to maybe more. So. All right, well if nobody else has anything else I'd like to add I'm going to close out today then. So thank you all for attending, and we will talk again next week.


وَأَقُولُ فِي القُرْعَانِ مَا جَاءَتْ بِيهِ آيَاتُهُ فَهُوَ الْكَارِيمُ الْمُنْزَالُهُ وَأَقُولُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ وَالْمُصْطَافَ الْهَاديِ وَلَا أَتْ أَوَّالُهُ الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثناء الجميل وأشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأشد أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد صلى الله عليه وعليه وعلى آله واصحابه والتابعين لهم بحزانين إلى يوم الدين أما بعد last week we started a series where we were speaking about the concept of Islamic finance Islamic income or Halal income and I gave an introduction last Friday today we're going to speak about earning in Islam its types its levels and its virtues so we're going to speak about income how many types are there its levels and also its virtues so what is the word kassab in Arabic language what does it mean the word kassab kaf sin ba what does it mean a three letter word it means تحصيل نفع او ضرن it is to attain it is to earn something that is beneficial or something that is harmful that's what the word kassab means it is to earn something that is beneficial or something that's very harmful let's break that down insha'Allah the thing that the person earns can be something beneficial for the dunya and the hereafter so مصلاحة دنياوية or مصلاحة اخراوية or مصلاحة for both a benefit that you gain for this dunya and a benefit for the hereafter and the benefit can sometimes be obligatory meaning you have to earn this it's obligatory for you to earn it as I mentioned for a person to make income for their need is obligatory you to make the amount that you need to survive is obligatory for instance you're an individual you're alone you're not married you have no children maybe even your parents are not alive so you're alone you have to make the amount that is obligatory for you to survive now can you do it on a day-to-day basis for instance I work today only what I need today you can you go you make the provision and the amount needed for that day and then you close your shop and you leave and some of the sell-off they used to do this so some of the early scholars they only used to make the amount that they needed for that day and after that they will go and seek knowledge or they will go and do it tomorrow they come again they work for what is needed for that day again and then they leave but if you're a person who others are connected to you you've got a wife you've got children then you are obliged to make money for yourself and for those who are connected to you so you can't just say I'm just making enough for myself you are obliged to make the amount for yourself and an amount for your family members that are connected to your wife and your children etc it's obligatory to do it again those who are connected to you you can make for them what they need on a day-to-day basis you can for instance you bring what is needed and for that day to your wife and your children and your parents and you don't have anything for them tomorrow and then you go out tomorrow to make what is needed for tomorrow and it goes on like that it's permissible for you as long as you want as long as you make what is needed by those who are connected to you if you have debt and you have to pay that debt off you're also obliged to make the amount required for that debt as well you can't just say I make enough for myself and I make enough for my wife and children and then I what? but I don't have money to pay off that debt you have to find another job find another earning to pay off that debt it's obligatory this is the قدر which is واجب the amount that is obligatory anything other than that is مستحب it's recommended in other words are you allowed to make money for the whole entire year? yes you are can you collect money for a year? for two years? no you're allowed to maybe like Muhammad SAW's life is divided into two the first portion of his life he only used to make what he needed for that day AS whatever he needed for that day that's how much he had AS and he didn't have anything other than that but if you look at the late stages of his life AS he started to have storage he had what? he had storage that which he needs for the whole entire year okay and that shows us that both of them are they're both permissible they're both permissible و لذلك ألمام تلمي ذي نريتن في السنان من حديفي سلمة ابن عبيدي الله ابن محسن الحظمي رحمه الله أما الخطمي عن أبيه و كانت له صحبة محسن ابن الخطبي أسرعي عبيد الله ابن محسن الخطبي was a companion he said that the Prophet SAW he said من أصبح منكم آمنا في سربي anyone who has been given safety in his household he's got safety Alhamdulillah he wakes up and he's nothing to be scared of he's got security and safety معافن في جسده and he has a healthy body he's not sick he has a healthy body معافن في جسده the Prophet SAW said عنده قوة يومه and he has his daily requirements the Prophet SAW he has what he needs for the day عنده قوة يومه he has the amount that he needs for that day the food and the provision he needs for that day he has it the Prophet SAW said فكأن محيزة لهم الدنيا بحدافيلها it is like the whole entire universe has been placed under your feet you have health you have safety and security and you also have your daily need not your weekly need or your monthly requirement but daily but the whole entire universe but the whole entire world has been placed under your feet so this hadith the scholars they took from it that the bare minimum that a person needs is what daily so you have to make what you need for that day so obligatory that's the first part of the definition of the word income we said that it means تحصين ونفعين and we spoke about the good there is that which is obligatory and there is an amount a part of it which is recommended the benefit تحصين ونفعين it is to earn good and it's also to earn evil right that's what the word cost means and the good I said it's what مهوا واجبون that which is obligatory and مهوا مستحب and that which is recommended I also mentioned that the good that you're earning can be good in this dunya and good in hereafter now I'm going to go to the second part which is تحسين ضرن آنين هام which is part of the definition الله تبارك وتعالى He showed us in the Quran that a person can earn evil and he used the word كثب for evil الله تبارك وتعالى يسأل in the Quran ومن يكسب إثمن فإنما يكسبه على نفسي وكان الله عليم الحكيمة الله said in this ayah ومن يكسب إثمن anyone who earns إثمن which is sinning evil it's very broad like what he's earning here can be evil actions it can be haram income ومن يكسب إثمن فإنما يكسبه على نفسي he's doing this to himself he's earning this haram for himself وكان الله وكان الله is عليم one who has deep knowledge of what you're doing the haram you're earning other people may not know but Allah is عليم he knows it سبحانه وتعالى and a Hakim and Allah is wise wise in how he's dealing with you right now سبحانه وتعالى وصول الله تبارك وتعالى سلين النذ آية ومن يكسب خطيئة أو إثمن ثم يرمي به بريئا وإثمن مبينة الله says ومن يكسب خطيئة أو إثمن anyone who earns خطيئة and إثمن what's the difference between the two? خطيئة means mistake unintentional unintended but it's wrong something wrong that you're earning you're earning haram income but you don't know what you're earning you see أو إثمن means تعمد السيئة تعمد المعصية the person intended the evil الله says ثم يرمي به بريئا and then what he does is that the evil that he earned and the wrong doing is that he came with he accuses other people of it فقد احتامل that this person has put on his shoulders بوهتان وإثمن مبينة he has taken on his shoulders a great sin and he has falsified a great amount that's what the IS says also الله says بما كثبت ايديكم ويعفوا عن كثير there is no calamity that befalls you except it has come from what بما كثبت ايديكم so we've learned now that the word كثب which is earning can be good and it can also be what it can also be bad we're going to come into great details what haram income is what are the principles that we can know it's going to come it's part of the series but we want to define it and have an understanding of it brothers and sisters who are listening earning is a ضرورية فطرية وضرورية دينية earning is a necessary innate thing that's built in us going out of our ways to get income and making money it's something Allah has placed inside us it's a ضرورية فطرية it's a necessary component of us and it's also what ضرورية دينية and even the shari'a also gives it a necessary so it's not just something the humans want to do but it's also something that the religion emphasizes on greatly so our religion is not like you tend to find many people who believe إن شاء الله it's going to bring me a risk and I'm just going to stay in the mischief I'm not going to work I'm going to put hard work in this really goes against what the religion stands on and it goes against our دين and you'll see it إن شاء الله انتعالى الله يسألني آية this is in the context of يا يولدين أعملوا إذا نوديا للصلاة من يوم الجمعات فسعوا إلى ذكر الله وذروا البيع ذلكم خيروا لكم إن كنتم تعلمون فإذا قضية الصلاة فانتشهرو في الأرض وابتغوا من فضل الله وذكروا الله كثيرا للعلكم تفلحون الله يقول فإذا قضية الصلاة إذا الصلاة is over and it's finished جمعة has been done خدمة has been done صلاة has been prayed فإذا قضية الصلاة فانتشهرو this pass on the earth and do what وابتغوا من فضل الله look for the look for the means here go and look for the risk that Allah has placed on this earth go and exert effort in and then look what Allah has said after that وذكروا الله كثيرا and some of the scholars they took from that that earning حلال income which we're going to see in another ayah is a way to remember Allah in a good way it's a means the ayah says look for the provisions وابتغوا من فضل الله من فضل الله is that which is Halal واذكروا الله كثيرا and remember Allah a lot the relationship between Halal income and the remembrance of Allah that this would lead to this this with what it will lead to this also الله تبارك وتعالى emphasize that same point I just mentioned in another ayah الله says those of you who believe in Allah تبارك وتعالى أنفق و give which is a righteous action right but Allah says من طيباتي ما رزقناكم give from the Halal earnings that you make ومن ما أخرجنا لكم من الأرضي and that which we have brought from the earth from you so giving which is a form of remembering الله عز وجل comes through what حلال حلال آن حلال income rather brothers the concept of going out and working and earning حلال income is even greater than الجهاد في سبيل الله it is greater than what الجهاد في سبيل الله to go and fight in the cause of Allah and to go out and make a Halal income it is actually greater to go out and make Halal income did you guys know that الله تبارك وتعالى إن ربك يعلم أنك تقوم أدلة من ثلاثة الليل والسفه وثلاثه وطائفة من الذين معك والله يقدر الليل والنهار علم أن لن تقسوه فتاب عليكم فقر أومة يسر من القرآن وآخرون ي Sher dou وآخرون يقاتلون في سبيل الله فقر أومة يسر من padre اللون توزس هيع وآخرون يبتغون من من فضل الله وآخرون يقاتلون في سبيل الله وآخرون يقاتلون اللهم يتكلمون أن يذهبون out to look for the provision of Allah and then Allah after mentions and from them are those who are going to fight in the cause of Allah اللهم يتكلمون أن يتكلمون those who are making the Halal income before the one who fights in the cause of Allah and look what Omar took from this رضي الله تعالى عنه سعيد ابنو منصور عبد ابنو حميد و ابنو مدر they bought it on the Tafseer of this ayah that Omar رضي الله عنه said لأن أموت بين شعبتي رحل for me to die between my merchandise عمر رضي الله فاروق هذه الأمة for me to die عمر ربنو الخطاب to die in between my merchandise because my products, my merchants that I'm trying to make money from فمي to die بين شعبتي رحل أضربوا في الأرض and I'm out on the earth trying to make a risk and provision for myself أبتغي من فضلي الله and I'm looking for the virtue of Allah أحب إليه is more beloved to me من أن أقتل مجاهدا في سبيل الله تعالى to be killed in the cause of Allah تعالى لأن الله قدما الذين يضربون في الأرض because Allah gave precedence to the ones who are going out on the earth and are earning حلال إنكم على المجاهدين then those who are fighting in the cause of Allah and then he read the ayah وآخرون يضريون في الأرض يبتون من فضلي الله وآخرون يجاهد وآخرون يقاتلون في سبيل الله this shows us brothers what the virtue of the one who goes out to earn income and make money for himself but in a halal way his aim and objective is what his aim and his objective is to make sure that what he's earning and what he's making is halal and it's not a haram and the Ulama mentioned the evidence in the ayah to show that the one who's earning the halal income is better than the one who's fighting in the cause of Allah it's the takdeem that the fact that Allah put this one before this one and not always is that the case but the fact that Umar understood it from that shows us it is the case now now even though they are both martyrs and many other characteristics are martyrs لكن حالة والب the time that they are both going out before they die both of them whilst they are going out to earn the pleasure of Allah who's more virtuous you see the scholars they took from this that the one who's earning money and making money for himself whilst he's going out to make the money he's more virtuous than the one who goes out in the cause of Allah in the desert and walks that's one number two the one who's going out to make halal income is better than the Mujahid even if the Mujahid dies and this person doesn't die and there are many of the salaf who believe that رحمة الله number one being Umar رضي الله وعلي this really shows us that our religion it's about the concept of going out and making yourself an income الله تبارك وتعالى he showed us in the Quran that the first person to go out and make an earning for themselves was maybe Allah Adam عليه السلام Adam was the first individual to bring this concept into play to work to earn an income for himself was Adam عليه السلام and the evidence for that many people don't tend to see it is قوله تعالى is the statement of Allah فقلنا يا آدم إن هذا عدو لك ولي زوجك فلا يقر جنكما من الجنة فتشقى this in Allah said we said to Adam that Iblis is an enemy to you and your wife فلا يقر جنكما فلا يقر جنكما من الجنة فتشقى what does it mean فتشقى though مفصرين like سدي عبدالله عباس مجاهد المجابل the great imams of تفسير they said فتشقى here means فتت عبى that you get tired meaning if Iblis takes you out of جنة you're going to come to the earth and you're going to have to make for yourself an income you're going to get tired of making money تتعبوا في الطلب الرزق you'll become tired from going on to this earth and making for yourself a what an earning that's not what you do in جنة you don't work for anything everything is given to you you've already worked for it like the dunya you go and you exert effort in and you make a livelihood for yourself like you want amazement from the iris الله say سبحانه وتعالى فقلنا يا آدم إن هذا عدو لك ولي زوجك فلا يُخرج النقم من الجنة فتشقى and Allah did not say فتشقى يا they only spoke to Adam at the last part when in the beginning I was talking to I was talking to both of them إن هذا عدو لك ولي زوجك this is an enemy to you and your wife both of them قد ينادي إني الله تبارك وتعالى ويسأل فتشقى because the earning and the hard work of making a livelihood is upon the man not the woman الله ستوك تأدم عليه السلام ولي ذلك بغوية وليسأل ولم يقول فتشقى رجوعا به إلى آدم لأنه تعابه أكثر فإن الرجل هو السائر إلى على زوجتي الإمام الابغوية ويسأل فتشقى يا was not used in the best الله did not talk to Adam وحوا حتى تعمل عملًا إلى الموت. مجاهد said that you will not, he's talking about the most basic food that one can eat, which is what? A bread and an oil, as basic as that.  حتى تعمل until you work and work that will reach you close to what, إلى الموت ده. You see? Meaning this is the تعب and the hard work that is exerted in making it. You may not have to make the bread and yes you may not have to bring the olive oil and make it and produce it. Like you're going to have to make the money from it, right? That means you wake up in the morning, you go out. You sometimes even forget to eat. وما إلى ذلك. سرخسي رحمة الله وسرخسي, he mentions in the كتاب المبصول في فق الحنفي. All the previous prophets brothers, they worked. نبي الله نور, they said كان نجارا يأكل من كسبه. نبي الله نور was a carpenter and he used to eat from his own work, his own provision. These are prophets. These are prophets of Allah. They didn't make money and they didn't make their life to charge people for their دعوة and their deal. That's not what they did. What they did was they had their own working. In the Quran if you look what did they say, أسألكم عليهم أجرة. I'm not going to ask you for any risk. I don't want anything from you guys. In أجرية إلا على الله, my reward is with who? It's with Allah. So نور كان نجارا. نبي الله نور was a carpenter. يأكل من كسبه والeat from what he made. إدريس كان خياطا. إدريس was a tailor. It's the tailor clothes. إبراهيم كان بزارا. إبراهيم used to take clothings that were tailored and he would go to the market and sell it. So he used to sell clothings. إذكرية كان نجارا. إذكرية was also a carpenter. إيسا عليه السلام ربما كان يلتقة سنبولة فيأكل من ذلك هو نور اكتساب. إيسا عليه السلام لكن was slightly different from the rest. إيسا will go on the earth and he will look for the corns, the sweet corns. Sometimes there will be sweet corns on there. He would take what's on there from the earth and he would collect that and he would eat that instead of begging anyone, asking anyone to kill him anything. إيسا was more aesthetic. More far from. But look what he said. وهو نور اكتساب. It was a form of his work. That's how he used to make it. إيسا عليه السلام كان يصلعون المكاتلة. إيسا was a man who used to make مكاتل is the hand weaved كاربت that people sell on. They take it from the trees and they make it from it. It's not actual carpet but it's those handmade ones. He used to make that. ويأكل من ذلك and he would sell it and make money from it. إيسا عليه السلام كان يقوي. اللهم سنة القرآن وحشر اللي سليمانه جنوده من الجنة والإنسي والطيري فهم يوزعون The wind, the gin, the ins, the birds, the insects they worked for him but he was also had a job سليمان he used to make money on the side داود كان يصنع الدرع داود used to make an armor out of metal because Allah told us in the Qur'an that Nabilah Dawood he was a person just like you know the Ajeen the Ajeen you put the bread and the yeast when you add it together and you want to make yourself the way is soft that's the dowya now that's how it was for Nabilah Dawood the metal you take the metal and you can bend it and carve it Allah told us in the Qur'an وقلننا له الحديد and Dawood عليه السلام was Khalifa on this earth as Allah said in the Qur'an إنا جعلنا خليفة في الارضي Dawood we have made you a governor on this earth مع ذلك he had an income on the side that he used to make just because he was the leader of the Muslims he didn't take money from that he left that money for the people and he made for himself a risk on the side and Allah told us in the Qur'an وعلمناه صلعة لبوس لك من تحصينك من بأسكم فهل أنتم شاكرون Nabilah Dawood we taught him وعلمناه صلعة لبوس we taught him how to make the armor so they had crafts skills that they used these prophets and I asked myself in this famous hadith that the Prophet ﷺ said in this hadith when he got the benefit out of it he said the Prophet ﷺ said there is not a person who eats a risk better than what he makes from his own hand the best form of earning the best form of provision and food is that which he worked for that which he strived for and you earned it وإبنى النبي الله داود النبي الله داود كان يأكل من عمل يدي and Dawood used to make his own income and he would eat from that here the question is all these prophets used to work as we mentioned all of them what and why was Dawood specified and why was he mentioned from the rest إبنى حجر رحم الله mention in his كتاب فتح الباري which is a show of Sahih Al-Bukhari he said والحكمة في تخصيص داود بالذكر أن اقتصار وفي أكل يا علامة يعملوا بيده لم يكن من الحاجة لأنه كان خاليفة في الأرض كما قال الله وتعالى وإنما ببتغى الأكل من طريق العفظالي داود عليه الصلاة ولماذا ولماذا ولماذا ولماذا ولماذا ولماذا لأنه never worked because he needed income داود was wealthy very wealthy he had money a lot his whole world was under his الله gave him it سبحانه وتعالى and so Dawood didn't work because he needed to work but he worked because what he worked because he believed this was more virtuous this was greater that you go out there and you make your own income you work for it, you strive for it, you exert your effort and you get your risk from there وإنما ببتغى الأكل من طريق العفظالي he chose this way because it's what because it's the best way so what we've taken today is the types of casp there are that which is obligatory and that which isn't we've also taken that the casp is either benefits that you're going to bring yourself or harm we also took that the casp can be in this dunya or in the hereafter we also spoke about the levels of incomes like Nabila-e Dawood was a ninja his profession was different from the profession of what for example Nabila-e Ibrahim or Nabila-e Idris because Idris was a khayat, he was a tailor and we also studied the virtue of earning and making your own provision I want to stop there insha'Allah for today's session as I said to you it's meant to be maximum 45 minutes 30 minutes to 45 minutes insha'Allah it's just meant to be basic small, summarized, concise series and next week we will take another portion like that anything which I have said that was wrong but incorrect is from me and Shaytan and Allah has messaged our free from it سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشد ولا إله إلا الله استغفرك وانتوب إليك


Okay, let me get the agenda up in order. If folks could go ahead and add themselves into the agenda, that would be great as attendees. And let me get that agenda in order. We usually start about five after, gives people a chance to turn up. We are gonna be a little bit late this week because QCUN China is going on. And if somebody would be willing to share the agenda, that would be super helpful. Do you see the agenda? I do, thank you very much, Avada. Yeah, you asked for the QCUN China or? I know that we have a lot of people who are at QCUN China, are you at QCUN China? No, but I've heard with Nikolai, his talk has passed. He said, usually people, they are not very active with questions. So, but he had some discussions with them after. And he also, he said he's trying to gain some contributors from there. Awesome, that sounds good. It sounds like there was a positive reception. So, go ahead if folks are interested, go ahead and add things that you think should be on the agenda. There are a few things that I have not carried forward to this agenda that we could if people are interested, primarily because we don't have Frederick and Nikolai here, particularly things around roadmap and that kind of stuff. If folks do want to pull those forward to this meeting, I'm more than happy to. Just let me know, cool. So, drilling down into the agenda, we have our usual events, so recurring events. NSM has a docs meeting that happens weekly on Wednesdays. And a use case meeting that happens the second, fourth and fifth Mondays. In addition to this meeting, and then the CNC of Telecom user group, which is not technically NSM, but we work very closely with them, is on the first and third Mondays at 8 a.m. So, going on right now, we have CubeCon China, which is underway. We've got an intro talk that apparently went very well with Nikolai and Frederick. I'm anxious to hear about it when they get back. Nikolai is going to be doing an answer bar. And we have Twitter support for all of this, which is amazing. Thank you, Lucina. And then there's also some tug stuff going on that we expect to be participating in there as well. We have talks coming up at DBDK User Space. Frederick's giving a talk to 19th of the 21st. There is some potential to do something at OpenCore Summit. If people are interested, they've reached out. Open Networking Summit Europe is coming up. And that CFP has now closed. So, it looks like Nikolai and Taylor submitted a talk on NSM plus the CNAB testbed. And Radislav is also going to be talking about the forwarder kernel efforts. And Ivana has submitted a talk about the SOI NSM stop, which is also super interesting. And there's actually, I think, a spec out there. Now, Ivana, is that correct? If people are interested, they should go look at that. Yes, I've described some of the things I thought on. And yes, anyone is welcome to give feedback. Cool, excellent. Awesome. And then we've got the OpenCore Summit coming up. There's a CFP open for that. I think Nikolai is thinking of giving a talk there. Folks, I strongly urge that we get on the KubeCon Cloud Native North America. That CFP closes on the 12th. So, it's getting really close now. We'll probably start doing a shared doc to gather ideas as much as we've done on other occasions. And then co-located events. EnvoyCon is coming up there, co-located as well. We should probably be doing something with their CFP. And then Edge Compute World is coming up in December. And Edge Congress is coming up in November in Austin. So, we know what to do something at those. And then a sort of a final reminder, if you do have sites, please add an event to the site. Push a PR to the network service mesh site. Any questions about events? Any other events that we should know about that we don't have listed here? Do we consider only big international events or all of them? I'm sorry, I didn't hear you. I mean, do we consider only big international events or any kind of events? I think traditionally we've considered any kind of events. Because there is EasterCon, it's international, but it's smaller, several hundred people. It's in Sofia, and a talk about SMI NSM is already accepted there. And I don't know yet if we're out of swastok, so accept it because... I would strongly urge you to not only add that to the list that we have here, but also to push something up to the network service mesh site. Because for me at least, and other people may do this differently, I see this as how do we capture events where people are going to be doing things related to network service mesh, that we can promote them to the broader community. So I would be thoroughly delighted to capture the event that you mentioned in Sofia. Okay, how are we going to update some of our places? Cool. And I think, Taylor, you mentioned, and if you go ahead and just add that, that basically you, Nikolai and Yang Yu, are submitting something to people in North America, I presume probably on network service mesh plus CNF test bed, which is all goodness. So do feel free to add that here. And again, the other thing I would strongly urge you on is push a PR to the website, right? That makes it super easy for everybody to find. It gives a nice book that the social media team can tweet on and we can get you all the love and promotion that the talks deserve. Cool. Anything else? Oh, I'm sorry. And Taylor also commented that he can't add it right now because he's in China. So just make sure to get it up there whenever you get a chance, Taylor. We'll definitely get that reflected. So next up, I believe we have the social media team. So Lucina, how is that going? Hi there. It's still going pretty well. Awesome. Let's see. So tried to give quite a few reminders of the intro that happened today. And I'll be sure to give another reminder later on today, which is Wednesday morning in China. So I guess in like, I'm trying to do the math. I guess in like 12 hours, Nikolai is gonna be at the CNCF answer bar. And so I'll post a reminder right after this call about that. And we've gotten seven new followers. We've followed 20 more people. And posted, retweeted about 14 times in the past week. Awesome. And so I'm looking for mentions and any pictures of the intro and not finding them on Twitter. So I'm not sure maybe we'll be able to do some recaps next week once Nikolai and Frederick get back. And if anyone is there and took pictures, feel free to share it with me in some way, whatever way works from there to here. And I'll be happy to post any media material and recaps of the talks that happened at KubeCon China. And yes, if anything is added to the network service mesh.io events page, I'll be sure to promote that as well. And once the 0.1 release is ready, I'll announce that. And once the redesign of the website is ready, I'll announce that. And if you'd like me to put out a request for folks to take a look at the work in progress, I can do that if we want more comments on the PR. I mean, I think the PR has been out there for a little while. And I would certainly something I want to discuss today. I know Luke has been super patient about the merge of the initial PR. And I know there are lots of small things that various people would like to tweak as we go. So I'm not sure how much longer we want to keep that hanging out as a PR. We'll see. But definitely if we get it up and we switch over, we would want to call attention to looking for a little website, definitely. Yes, that sounds good. That's where I was thinking as well. And then there's a call for demo at the Kubernetes community meetings that we talked about last week and the OVS orbit podcast interview scheduled for July 2nd. That's awesome. Cool. That's very good news. So thank you. You do excellent work on this and it's so much so appreciated. Thank you so much. I'm open to feedback and suggestions. If there's anything you want me to do more of or less of just let me know. Thank you. Cool. So that brings us around to the network service mesh website redesign. So there's a PR that's been out for a little while where Luke Perkins from the CNCF basically went through and did a really nice clean redesign of the website. And let me go ahead and show you guys the preview of that because it's absolutely beautiful. Oh wait, I'm sorry. I'm not sharing. If you could click on the preview link for that agenda item and show folks, cool. So this is sort of the new website. We've got a new front page. It's quite a bit simpler and cleaner. I think it does a nice job of capturing some of the features that we have and sort of how things work. Do folks have any thoughts or comments or input? And then we've got quite good documentation as well. It's got a beautiful table of contents. It goes through and talks about problem statements and it sort of encapsulates sort of the concepts, releases, set up tasks and videos, stuff that we had before, but at a much cleaner layout. And then community is gonna look super familiar. It looks very much like what we had, giving pointers to all the things. And then events got much cleaner as well. Events is just a linear list of the events, which I kind of actually like better as you can actually see what's going on. So what I wanted to do, we've already sort of sent this out to the mailing list and we got a little bit of feedback on the PR. And so I just wanted to know how folks thought about merging this and sort of building on this as a visual base for the site at this point. Do folks have opinions they want to express or questions or comments or how do people feel about going ahead and merging this? Hello, this is Frederick here. I strongly agree with merging it. I think we can do changes over time. Okay. Do other folks have thoughts and opinions? I like the design, how the links are with the colors of the logo. Pretty creative. Color is super powerful. I'm a huge fan of color. I'm just not the guy you wanna ask for a color palette, but man, do I love a color palette. I can't make one to save my life. Cool. And then anyone else have sort of feedback on this or? I think the, this is Watson. I think the font should be, the type should be a bit bigger. Okay. That seems a bit small to me, but not that we can't change. Yeah, that should be pretty easy to tweak. Shall we go ahead and merge this then and we can iterate together as a community and fix all the things? Yeah, looks nice. Cool. All right. So we'll go ahead and get that done. I know Luke will be super happy. He's been very, very patient. One last thing. So on the very top, we have Twitter and GitHub listed. We should probably add a little Slack button as well. Ooh, that would be nice. Although there's a little bit of trickiness to Slack because of the need to register. I know we did have, so it's gonna be interesting to figure out what to do with the Slack button because I know just yesterday had somebody who got themselves super confused trying to figure out how to sign up for, to get to the Slack channel because of the need for an invite. And, but that's just a standard Slack problem. Yeah. Maybe we can have a page on that that Link's doing instead of Slack directly. So we can say step one, register here, step two, join here. And we could even do pictures or something similar to that. No, I think that's probably a really good idea actually. I'm all about lowering the barriers to communication as much as humanly possible because my experience has been that I'm not good at thinking about the ways that people will get confused and lost in when they do these things. So. Yeah, barriers are for CPUs, not people. Exactly. Awesome. Cool. So we'll go ahead and do that. Is there anything else that anybody wanted to talk about today? I know there's a lot of activity going on. Specs are being written, specs are being implemented. We had talked about trying, the doc came turning some of the technology tree into a roadmap. So there's a lot of good stuff happening in the background. Just not sure how much is landing other than the website this week. All right, cool. Excellent. We'll see you guys later. See you next week. See you. See you. See you. Yes. Bye bye.


I'd like to talk today about ProEars Gold Mag earmuffs. I purchased a pair four or five years ago and I'm on the range 1,000 to 1,500 hours a year. And so they get a lot of use. I take them on and off a lot. Putting my glasses on, of course, hurts the edges a bit of the ear pads, but I loved them until they finally started sizzling a bit.  Of course they're gonna go bad in time, but instead I received this brand new pair. And that's pretty impressive. That's good customer service. That's almost LWRC and LL bean level. Good customer service. So a big shout out to ProEars. Great job, folks. Really appreciate you taking good care of us. Great ears. I'm glad now that last year we bought 30 pairs of these. A little bit different model. We bought the 300s. Those are great as well. So thanks, ProEars, for doing a great job. Yeah.
