Hello one and all, I am Dr. Sanjithya S.B., Associate Consultant in Internal Department Medicine, Manipal Northside Hospitals, Malaysia. So today we are talking about seasonal diseases. Main thing during the monsoon seasons is that the change in humidity and also the change in temperature which increases the survival of various organisms and it also helps in the progression or multiplication of the organisms and there is also more contamination during this seasons and also there is transmission of various diseases and illnesses through various modes of transmission such as the food, air, water, flies and mosquitoes. So during rainy seasons the main thing is that the water bodies collected around surrounding us mainly during the such as the water collections on the roads or empty sites or the water collections, manmade water collections such as any empty materials which were thrown as deserted materials collected, water collected in that deserted materials. All those things are one of the risk factors. So broadly we can say that the fever, cold cough, diarrhea as decentries and various other diseases increased during the monsoons. So we broadly categorize the various diseases which appear into six categories. The first one let's go about with the diarrheal diseases. So diarrheas are very common disease during the rainy seasons mainly because of the contamination of the water or food whatever we are consumed and also there is mainly due to the contamination of food and water and it is one of the self-limiting illness and if the patient is having change in the consistency of these tools or if there are more than three tools per day it is usually self-limiting and also patient recovers with the household treatment in most of the times. Diarrheas are mainly risky in the children's mainly because of the higher risk of dehydration. Multiple loose tool episodes causes water loss in the children early and there is various degrees of dehydration is seen in children's. Children's usually require early consultation with the doctor because of the risk of dehydration. Dehydration is categorized into three various categories. Early dehydration usually there might not be any signs or symptoms. In the moderate degree of dehydration patient might have dryness of mouth, increase in thirst or increase in restlessness and all. In severe dehydration patient might go into diminished consciousness state or patient might develop low BP and also decreased urine output can be seen. Another part of diarrheal diseases is the dysentery wherein the severity of the loose tools increases and also the loose tools is usually associated with blood in these tools. So in such cases it is a little risky for the patient to continue staying at the home. Patient needs to visit the nearby hospital because of the risk of blood loss and also because of the risk of shock. The main thing which is associated with dysentery is the association of pain abdomen and fever in the patient. This differentiates between the normal diarrhea and the dysentery. The amoebic dysentery is the another entity wherein the patient goes into long term diarrheal illness where the patient might not have very severe illness and also patient might continue to have loose tools daily for longer periods and it goes into a chronic state. Another intestinal pathology or infection is the typhoid fever. Here the main source is through the food contaminated food and water. Here the pathogenic organism is salmonella typhi, the bacteria which causes typhoid fever. It usually is transmitted through food through our intestines where it gets into our intestines and causes ulcer like illness in the intestine and it usually presents as a fever, pain abdomen, loose tools in the initial phases. In the later stages patient will start developing high grade fever and sometimes patient might also develop blood in the tools. So regarding the preventing of typhoid patients should avoid outdoor foods and should use safe drinking water during the travel or in case of rainy seasons he should maintain food and water sanity. There are also various typhoid vaccines which are available. You can visit nearby hospitals to know about the vaccine which are usually given through oral dose. The next thing we are talking about is cholera. So cholera is also one of the diarrheal diseases wherein the patient will go into severe dehydration in the very early stages. Usually the patient will be having loose tools, multiple episodes associated with vomiting. The loose tools are compared with the rice water tools because the consistency and the appearance of the loose tools is similar to the drained rice water. So it is very necessary to identify the cholera in the earlier stage because patient going into severe dehydration can have renal failure also in the severe stages. So it is very important to identify cholera in the earlier stages. This disease was very common during earlier because of poor water sanitation. Nowadays it is seen little rare but it is very severe if it is seen. This is all about the diarrheal illnesses. This was just a brief thing to know about the various diseases which appear during rainy season or any other season change in monsoons, change in season which will cause the affect our intestines. So the next entity which we are discussing about is the liver diseases. So liver diseases usually are also more common during rainy seasons mainly because of the contaminated water and food hepatitis. So hepatitis A is one of the common disease which is affecting the liver during the monsoons and the patients usually present with fever, malaise, generalized weakness, fatigue and also patients usually have vomiting, loose tools and also yellowish discoloration of the eyes. So these are the common symptoms which are seen in a hepatitis A patient. So there is also history of travel is present in this patient. So who are travelling to different places usually and later developing such symptoms we should think of mainly the discriminating feature is the yellowish discoloration of eyes.  So prevention of hepatitis A mainly as similar with the diarrheal diseases food and water sanitation and also there are various vaccines which are available for hepatitis A which are given orally you can visit nearby hospitals to know more about the vaccines. The next common things which are common disease which is seen during the rainy seasons or monsoons is that cough and colds which is generally called as viral fevers. Cough and cold is the most common during rainy seasons it is usually due to the viral infection which every year comes with a new strain causing a new infection but it is usually self-limiting and more limited to the upper respiratory tract and patients usually recover within 3 to 4 days with the home remedies. So until now we have discussed the three important diseases that is the diarrheal illnesses digestive system diseases including diarrhea and dysentery, liver diseases including hepatitis A which is the most common and also cold cough which affects the upper respiratory tract. Coming to the next one we are discussing regarding the mosquito-borne diseases. So mosquito-borne diseases are increased during the monsoon seasons because of the water bodies collecting surrounding us on the roads or the empty sites or whatever the man made collection such as empty bottles, empty whatever the things which where the water gets collected. So these become the breeding spaces for the mosquitoes which are the main vectors for the various diseases. So we will just discuss regarding the various diseases which are due to the vector-borne diseases that is mosquito-borne diseases. The first important thing we will discuss is malaria. Malaria is one of the important vector-borne diseases mainly transmitted by the anaphylus mosquito. So the plasmodium virus affects the blood cells of our body, red blood cells and also it affects the liver. It usually causes the symptoms of the malaria or like high fever which is seen alternate day every alternate day and it is also associated with severe chills sometimes associated with vomiting and also loose tools. So patients usually have multiple organ dysfunction usually their liver will also be affected and patient will I might also go into anemia that is decreased blood counts because of the lysis of the red blood cells. So usually it is mild to severe. In mild cases patients simply presents with fever and chills and vomiting and in case of severe malaria patient might have decreased consciousness due to the malaria organism affecting our brain. In that case patient is termed as cerebral malaria wherein patient will be in the severe disease. Patient might also have low glucose levels. Patient might also have low sugar levels because it affects the liver also. Next mosquito-borne disease is the dengue. Here patient it is a viral illness which is caused by dengue virus. So the it is also a mosquito-borne disease because of the ADS-Egypti. So ADS-Egypti is the mosquito which transmits dengue fever. So usually this is also seen due to the water body collection surrounding us and mainly the daytime sleepiness is the main risk factor for development of dengue. Here the patients usually might be having very mild disease and also might go into severe disease. So in case of mild disease patients usually have just fever, body ache and retro orbital pain what we call that is the pain behind the eyes and patients might also have severe back ache. So it is also called as break bone fever because the severity of the back ache is so severe that it is also termed as break bone fever. So patient might develop fever and all the symptoms and might be self-limiting for 3 to 4 days but the main risk factor associated with the dengue is the dropping of the platelet counts. So dropping of the platelet counts is usually seen after 3 to 4 days of the illness even after the fever subsides. It is very likely for the patient to stay at home after the fever episode because that is when patient usually starts where the platelet starts dropping. So it is very necessary to get an evaluation done in the early stage so that the dropping of platelets can be identified. If the platelets drop to a very severe level patient might start having bleeding manifestations various bleeding manifestations such as gum bleeding or bleeding under the skin or life threatening bleeding also in the all the cavities of the body such as cranial cavity or abdominal bleeding also. There is also we can categorize the dengue fever into two other severe forms that is dengue hemorrhagic fever it is called and also dengue shock syndrome dengue hemorrhagic fever as I said the patient will have bleeding from high risk of bleeding from all the parts or also from the into the cavities various body cavities such as abdominal cavity cranial cavity and also bleeding through the through urine and also through the hemoptysis patient can have hemoptysis that is bleeding when he coughs. So this is categorized as dengue hemorrhagic fever. Coming to the dengue shock syndrome here the patient might go into a very low blood pressure state because of the highly inflammatory reaction in the body the patient can have patients blood pressure might drop below to the severe state where patient might go into shock. In case of mild dengue fever where in the platelets have not dropped very much or the patient's blood pressure is maintaining only symptomatic treatment is advised such as paracetamol and good hydration. In case of and patient needs to be monitored for the platelet levels and also other parameters if the platelet levels are dropping below a particular level say 70 or 50000 patient needs admission and also monitoring of the platelets if they are dropping below the 20,000 the patient might require transfusion of platelets also mainly the management stays supportive but mainly but the main concern is to monitor for the dangerous signs and symptoms. Coming to the next mosquito-borne disease is the chicken gunia. Chicken gunia usually is a viral disease affecting the all the joints it starts with the fever which is high grade around 101 to 102 and patient will also start developing joint pains involving all the joints small joints and large joints of the body the it is a very debilitating disease usually the joint pains run for a period of months together sometimes patients might have long running joint pains which does not subside even with the painkillers. Next thing we are discussing about is the bites animal bites during rainy seasons animal bites also increase mainly the snake bite which is more commonly seen in rural areas. So the snake bites the risk associated with the snake bites is that patient might have neurological weakness because of cobra snake bite and patient might have bleeding tendencies because of other snakes such as crate or wiper. So coming to the last thing which we are discussing is the leptospira. Leptospirosis is also one of the common diseases during the rainy seasons and more commonly seen in lower socioeconomic status. This is an bacterial disease which is caused by a bacteria leptospira. So this bacteria is mainly spread through the contaminated water which is contaminated by the animal feces such as rats and mice. So the water which is contaminated with this leptospira if a person is having an open wound gets exposed with that contaminated water that leptospira enters our body. Leptospirosis is it affects the multiple organs. Patient might have liver failure and renal failure also. It can range from mild to moderate. In case of mild disease patient might have fever, chills, body pain, joint pains and also cough, muzzle pain. In case of severe disease patient might develop jaundice where it is called as Veal's disease. We have briefly described about the all the diseases which are necessary to identify at the earlier stage and to present to the or consult a doctor to the earlier stage. Now we will just discuss regarding the general preventive measures. So safety of the food, vegetables and water what we consume is very necessary hand washing before and after food consumption is also very important. Proper sanitary disposal is an important measure to be carried out and in case of vaccines patients can visit nearby hospitals to enquire regarding the vaccine. Measures for water safety is the during travel to carry safe water or boiled water and also the filtered water. Food safety is also an important measure. You have to avoid stale food, use fresh food which is cooked properly, avoid under cooked food. Another major thing is the water collections around us. It is very necessary to regularly empty the water collections and also use mosquito nets to avoid mosquito bond diseases. Thank you for joining the live session. If you are having any queries regarding the seasonal diseases discussed till now you can just feel free to ask the queries in the below comment box. We will be happy to answer those queries and we will further meet in the next sessions. Thank you.

After more than a week of protests against Southern Copper Corporation and the right-wing government of Peru, President Martin Vizcara agreed to the protesters' demand to reconsider his government's recent approval of the proposed copper project. This mining project will cost around $1.4 billion and aims to extract 120,000 tons of copper per year. Since July 15, thousands of farmers and inhabitants of the Tambo Valley in the Arequipa region of Peru have been mobilizing against the government's decision to authorize the construction of the long-resisted Tiamaria Mining Project. The Mexican mining company, Southern Copper Corporation, is in charge of this project. The community began the strike on July 15 in the municipality of Coca Chakra with an impressive mobilization. Hundreds of farmers took to the streets and demonstrated in the Plaza San Francisco located in the center of the municipality. The Peruvian Ministry of Energy and Minds had earlier granted construction license to the SCC despite strong resistance by environmentalists and inhabitants. The protesters' response demanded that the government revoke the granted license considering the negative consequences that mining activities will have on the environment and agriculture. The project will cause major ecological imbalance in the region and result in water scarcity. Huge chunks of cultivable land are being taken away as well. Tiamaria is a large open-pit copper mine located in the Isla province of Peru. The mine is located two kilometers away from the Tambo Valley, which is home to over 24,000 people who are primarily dependent on agriculture. Due to its proximity to the valley, the project threatens at least 1,300 hectares of agricultural land. The decision to reconsider the approval to the mine is a victory for the peasants' movement. Tima on Thursday, despite the police repression, hundreds of protesters took out a celebration march.


YouTube what's up, man? This is a great idea I have about a question that I get all the time. How can I play in these tournaments? How can I compete for this money? I see these guys winning hundreds of thousands of dollars. I see them winning belts How can I compete in that? You know, and a lot of times I get this question is too late in the season Or it's during the tournament or it's during the EA livestream or something like that And now is the time man for you guys to gear up and get ready to play in these tournaments And I'm going to give you 10 things you should be doing when man in 21 drops to make sure you're ready to compete in these tournaments The first thing I want you guys to do is accept and understand. It's kind of a two-part chapter of this video Accept the game. That's how I feel accept the game understand what it is. If it's a running meta Accept it. Embrace it, you know, because if you try to fight that and your opponent You're just gonna dig yourself a hole accept the game man If you feel it's too cartoony or it's too arcade-ish Accept that man if you're gonna get stuck on that barrier mentally You'll never be able to compete at the highest level man All these guys that you see winning all this money except what the game is You know joke has always won the Madden Bowl at the end of the year and had the best year There's always one of the best players and he always plays the game to its strength And that's what I mean by accept Understand it, you know, and then when I say understand Understand what you're getting into as far as competing in Madden. These people are doing this for a living This is their job literally just to compete in Madden people are embracing and people are giving their 150% to Competing in Madden, you know, this is not a a half-ass thing It's not something people do part-time with some people do it and that might be your angle to start as a part-time Competitive man player you can do that. I won a belt. I won over a hundred thousand dollars being part-time Competing so it's not impossible, but you have to understand that you are up against people that are putting as Much money as possible and as much time as possible into the game So you have to understand that and accept that the same thing about the game understand That the game might have a running matter Understand that bunch might be the past passing formation and accept that Now it doesn't mean you got to run that or do that or or if that's your best way of winning Maybe you got to do something else, but accept what it is. Don't complain about the game Don't use the game as the reason why you can't compete because that's never ever the reason All right, boys.  I don't like mutt I don't you know, I'm a regs player. I don't really want to spend money into mutt You have to get over that hurdle.  That's why we're here That's why we all play it. It's absolutely addicting. It's fun Yes, it costs money or it costs time, which are the same thing Essentially and I will tell you if you have never played mutt literally when you get the game There are Madden players that are really good I've known some that I grew up with that I play with all the time that are really good on regs And they play it all year. I'm telling you when the game drops do yourself a favor literally when it's done Downloading go to ultimate team, you know, because the pay-to-play aspect is so small in the first day The first weekend that you can compete you can start building your team The longer you wait to make your team the further behind you will get also man If you're remotely good at the game, you don't have to spend that much money You know, obviously you're gonna watch the streamers like me and problem And we're gonna have the best team the first day because that is the position We're in both as streamers and content creators as far as competitors So, you know, you don't have to have that, you know If you're that good at Madden just get a couple cards put a hundred dollars on the game or put your time into mutt Embrace it understand it learn it, you know, because that is where all the money is That's where all the viewership is that is where all these tournaments are are on mutt, you know And the sooner you can remove that I don't want to play mutt or everything's pay-to-play That mentality the better you can do in this field, you know Madden has completely shifted to this mutt mode and completely shifted their tournament focus to mutt So if you want to compete for fifty thousand a hundred thousand dollars and on the big stage at EA Mutt has to be your main goal man And I I will never find the person that has actually tried mutt and hasn't enjoyed it, you know I think for a football fan for a Madden fan. It's awesome, man It really is it keeps the game fresh for 12 months out of the year It doesn't die after the Super Bowl when there's no roster updates or anything like that how regs is and I'm you will really enjoy it I honestly believe that if you are a football fan a Madden fan You will enjoy it and it's where the tournaments are So if you want to compete in these tournaments and you haven't embraced mutt, I mean that is the first step And I promise you you will not regret it Third thing right now money games no matter how much the leaderboard is popping no matter how much playing your friends is popping It doesn't hold the same validity as playing somebody for money The best site to play for money is players lounge man that link is below in my description check it out make an account You don't have to play for twenty dollars and pop you don't have to play for a hundred dollars a pop You can pay for five dollars you can enter tournaments for one dollar any bit of experience in a high stakes game Will help you become a better player period whether it's a two dollar game or a two hundred dollar game.  I mean like I said putting twenty dollars on Players lounge and gambling that or playing against people that are playing for money is going to help you become a better man player Then spending twenty dollars on packs that week So instead of taking your your you know my weekly allowance so to say for mutt Take that weekly allowance and roll that on players lounge Check out some money games because it's going to improve you and make you a better player All right boys see now Number four is something I wish I was better at and I understood more growing up is that it's not all about winning It's it's it's hard to say that to yourself or say it to somebody else But there's so many more positives to this community than just winning man If I always would use to factor it out like do I want to spend two hundred dollars and travel? Entry fees and this that in a third to try to win the tournament which I'm probably not gonna win And I always will tell myself no I'm not gonna do that because it's not a valuable investment But as I look back I said I wish I would have done a lot more traveling and competing In my teens in my early 20s Then I do now because I would have built these relationships that I have That much earlier man and been a part of the competitive men seen much earlier than I have and That's something I encourage you guys man to understand that It can be a great experience for you Even if you don't come in the top four even if you don't cash out ten thousand dollars even if you don't win a belt I mean you can have a great experience and make this a great part of your life without Actually having to win anything I mean there are people that are my friends that are gonna be my friends forever that literally have no chance to ever Win a tournament. I mean it's sad to say but it's just it's just how it works. I mean some people are Great man players, but they're just not gonna win a tournament, you know And that's okay because they have so much fun in the competitive man side is really part of their life And it can be for you too So don't let the fact that you're probably not gonna win the tournament holds you back from being part of this competitive scene Number five biggest thing get a Twitter account. I don't care if it's Johnny Madden Robbie Madden player whatever it may be if you have a personal one and you want just a Madden one get in the That's all Twitter is where 90% of competitive Madden talk happens And if you're not on there, you're gonna miss out on when to start playing leaderboards when qualification ends when to sign up for club Series what leaderboard you should be playing what mold you should be playing What everything literally everything you're missing notifications of when the tournaments go live where to be at what what discord to be in what everything Twitter is the just the Communication hub of competitive man and and for me like you guys don't know who to follow. I mean There's there's three accounts. I'll tell you guys to follow for competitive man Now you can once you follow these accounts You're probably gonna be led down a rabbit hole to follow other ones One is Madden League ops Madden League ops is pretty much the base MCS Twitter account. It's gotten better over the years. I still think it's pretty pretty bland But they've done a better job. So make sure you follow Madden League ops to myself And I talk competitive man is what I do So I'm pretty sure most of you guys are already following me and three is joke joke will talk about competitive man Pretty much every single day complain about whatever he doesn't like try to get anything else changed So make sure you follow those three accounts Madden League ops myself and joke those are a good starting point if you want to get into competitive man on social media because if you're not you're gonna miss out on a lot of things and You don't want to be the guy that's missing out because that's part of the reason probably why you haven't been in these tournaments before number six ebooks Now a lot of you guys probably just turns your nose up. I don't need a book I'm Johnny Madden, you know, I know how to play the game I know how to do this ebooks are essential for every man player whether you're your beginner Whatever maybe it can help you get over the hump and learn how the game works and become a better player Also, if you're me I make ebooks, you know, but at the same time You know, if there's an ebook out there that I can get and I can learn that as well That can help me become a better player I've always thought if there's information out there for you and you can you know Obtain that information and you don't obtain it then you're a fool, you know There's always more information available. So go and get that once again This goes back to me spending my money. What could benefit me more as a man and player Is it gonna benefit me more to spend this hundred dollars on my mutt team or what if I buy four or five ebooks and learn different schemes? Not only for me to run them But when I play against Timmy Raincoat and he's running the I form pro New scheme that just dropped. I literally know all his plays already I know what he wants to do against certain coverages because I also have that ebook um So and this kind of go back to acceptance really goes back to the first one except what Madden is now Madden is YouTube plays Madden is ebooks Madden is twitch watching it really is so it goes back to kind of accept that Understand it and if you have the opportunity to obtain that knowledge of plays play books in popular schemes Do that I would I would honestly tell you guys that mostly competitive guys probably have access to every ebook that people put out You know, why would I not want to see what kid was running? Why would I not want to see jokes new defensive ebook? Why would I not want to add that to my arsenal no matter how strong my arsenal is if there's something else? I can add why not and I feel like you guys should always take that approach when it comes to ebooks going into man 21 now I'll be honest Madden turf does have the best ebooks. So make sure you're looking out for that premium membership Number seven twitch watch twitch download which on your phone be on the twitch website on your PC Twitch on your Xbox dashboard Whatever may be consistently be watching maddening and in taking that information that's on the screen and in twitch whether it be myself or problem Probably the two top competitive streamers You also check out all the TNC boys have been streaming a lot of Madden And they will be super active as far as what leaderboards to play what mode to play when to play it and if if you Want to compete I would see what what mode these guys are playing and just play right behind them pretty much It's kind twitch kind of goes with YouTube and ebooks. I want to watch it I want to be I want to see what they're doing see what they're playing against It's not always about the streamer what they're using But let's see what other people are doing that's popular amongst the leaderboard community and what people are doing offense defense special teams Whatever it may be so twitch is something if you're not using you guys can follow me that twitch link is below Man 21 is going to be unreal with the content the amount of streaming and videos and everything like that So be prepared for that and twitch is the best place to be also man Twitch is a great spot to meet other Madden players. Um, I Think it's a great the chat rooms and everything you'll meet other people that have the same interest in man As you so if you're a loner if you're by yourself your friends you play video games with aren't that committed to Madden But you want to take that next step That's I would say the twitch chat is probably where you'll meet somebody and I'll get into that later with one of the other Other topics of this video, but number seven twitch make sure you follow me. I mean Who else could you possibly follow? Number eight leaderboards grind a lot of leaderboards, you know If the top if the top 64 qualify for the tournament and you can't get into the top hundred don't stop grinding leaderboards It's making you a better man player. What's crazy is um, you know You can go in the man 21 ready to compete and literally not qualify for a single tournament You can never make the top hundred any leaderboard never make the top 200 any leaderboard You can do that much grinding and literally not come close to qualifying for tournament and become a way better man player This year than you have in any other year. I promise that so when I say grind leaderboards never stop Don't look at the leaderboards. Damn. I'm not top hundred. I'm gonna just want to go play mud or I'm gonna go play something else I'm gonna give up. That's that's pretty much Um, that's pretty much leader what leaderboards are they 1 million percent make you a better man player I was always a good man player. I was I 100% was always good when I started playing whether it was my friends down the street manual six manual eight but once I got into man 17 man 16 and They said this is the MCS leaderboards to play and try to qualify once I got into that player pool and Competed against all the other great players. It took my skill level to another threshold And honestly, I haven't been the same player since they gave us top four to grind for or let's play 500 leaderboard games. I Haven't been the same player. I missed that aspect of Madden. I really do So for me grinding the leaderboards is one of the biggest things you can do to become a better man player and start Competing you have to grind the leaderboards to compete now go back now You're probably asked what leaderboard do I grind this and where you follow Twitter you follow twitch You watch all these things and you stay connected. That's the biggest deal So you understand what leaderboard to play and when to play it So that's my leaderboards aren't the backbone of competitive man And I think they will definitely help you become better player and never look and say I can't make it I quit and we'll get to more of that and in the rest of this video But don't look at the leaderboard and said, you know, my position isn't good enough. I won't be able to qualify I won't be able to make it. Let me go play something else Just keep grinding because like I said, you can literally never qualify for a tournament and Become an exponentially better man player this year just from really grinding these leaderboards Number nine is a crew now. I'm the first anything. I can't get in the crew Nobody grew up with me. I can't go play with Clef.  How can I join these crews? You know, and and that's probably your initial thought and when I meet when I say crews It's kind of like people to play with and the most important thing with the people you play man What is that you guys have the same goal? You guys have the same end point.  He's not gonna be as serious as you now For me and when I talk about these players, it doesn't have to be skimble that you play with It doesn't have to be somebody that great at the game But if you guys work together and and you can figure out this run defense or this past defense together It can help you because multiple minds is always better than one no matter how good you are at the game Multiple minds is always better than one. I've had success from people You guys have never heard of that have helped me more than bugs or skimbo or clef or anybody You know, so it doesn't have to be the greatest player in the world, you know If you give one of your friends man, man, I need help blocking this blitz They can figure it out They can help you you guys can work together And if you literally have none of your friends that want to play man on your level You're you're a loner like I said the twitch chat is the best spot to find other people like that You know, what's up? How you guys doing? Can I get a game? Can I play a friendly? Blah blah blah. Can I get on the mic? One thing leads to another on twitch is probably the most social aspect of gaming right now and and social the social aspect of gaming is what What brought me to really be addicted to gaming, you know, I wasn't addicted to gaming until I plugged in the internet and started talking to people So but if you're introvert and you're not that type of person man, but the twitch chat you can type you can text anything And you don't have to be super out there But you can definitely meet new people that want to play the game just as much as you But also do not ignore your friends because if they have the same mindset as you they can help you get better Mad man, but ultimately when I say crew, I mean two minds are better than one So get some help on whatever you need help with I need help With this running play. I want a new scheme. How can I make this passing play better? Let your friends help you man and be open-minded to other people helping you and contributing to your own madden game Number ten. I made it number ten for a reason for me It is the most important aspect of competing the most important aspect of succeeding in anything you do Whether if you want to go cut the lawn today, you want to go to the grocery store. You want to win a madden belt You want to make a varsity football next year? Whatever it may be. This is the most important thing to me and that's to leave the excuses at the door Nobody has ever been successful making excuses Period and Madden is filled with excuses. I see them every day. I see them all the time It kind of goes back to accepting the game But this is a this is my biggest pet peeve in any human being and Literally this applies to any field Madden is competing a man for the game sucks. I you know, the game is not good. Um, it's pay-to-play You know, I don't have enough time to put in the game Whatever it may be There's so many built-in excuses that people have ready to fire off the hip if they cannot succeed and That I'm telling you guys it will hold you back so much Not only in Madden, but in everything you do in your life because because you kind of have that to lean on that Excuse is something to lean on rather than identifying the fact that you need to get better or you need to do better You know, and that's what an excuse does it Voids the fact that you have to acknowledge that you can do better and that's pretty much why I surround myself and Madden with The people I do because they don't have those excuses They don't have a reason why they didn't do it other than I have to play better No matter how many games my friends have lost my how many games I have lost It's always what can I do better not what happened bad to me to cause me to lose? You know, it's never anybody else's fault It's always your own and that's the approach you need to make because if you if you have excuses, you'll always have one Period no matter what you do You'll always have a reason why you didn't make it or a reason why you're not good enough Rather than trying to elevate your game and trying to understand what you did wrong or why you lost or why you didn't qualify this This this tournament section and that is what's going to improve you as a person is Understanding what you did wrong rather than how you got cheated or how it's somebody else's fault Like I said boys, this is the biggest question I get how do I compete in these tournaments? So if you're doing some of these 10 things keep going if not try to incorporate all 10 of these things into your Madden 21 game This year is going to be great for Madden and it's going to be even better from a competitive standpoint So if you have any more questions, please leave them in the comments below I'll do a whole video answering any questions that you guys have because I don't want there to be any reason why you aren't competing in Madden 21


Abstract Metavalent Bonding, MVB, is a unique phenomenon observed in certain crystal structures, which involves the competition between electron delocalization and electron localization. This phenomenon is particularly important in phase change materials used in advanced memory applications. In this study, the authors investigated the effect of MVB on the structural and optical properties of two different materials, SB2TE3 and Gouis-Bite alloys. They found that MVB can be manipulated by applying uniaxial strain, resulting in a large variation of dielectric function and reflectivity in the trigonal phase. Finally, they proposed strategies for applications utilizing the trigonal phase. This article was authored by Wei Zhang, Heng Ming Zhang, Su Yang Sun, and others.


What's going on and welcome to the FanDuel. Hurry up, my name is Tom Vecchio. Week 11 is here and I'm set to bring you three value plays to get in your lineups. Let's jump in, starting off with Miles Gaskin of the Miami Dolphins. He comes in at $6,200. He has one of the best matchups on the entire slate going up against New York Jets. They're around 35.4 FanDuel points per game to opposing the running backs. That's dead last in the league. And it's eight points worse than the team. That's the second worst in the league. So it truly is a phenomenal spot for Gaskin. He comes in with 15 total touches or more in three of his past four. With games, he's leading the team in snaps. We don't need to be worrying about that. A great matchup for Gaskin at only $6,200. Next up, Dawson Knox of the Buffalo Bills, the tight end coming in at $5,600. He comes in with the third most red zone targets on the Bills, which is good to see that we know that Josh Allen is going to be targeting him when they're in the scoring area. Going up against the Colts, they're relying the sixth most FanDuel points per game to opposing tight ends, which is sitting at 13.3 this season. We also see the Bills coming with a 28.5 applied at team total this week, which is the second highest on the slate. So everything sets up for the Bills to be scoring plenty of points. We know all this, Dawson Knox in the red zone. Great spot for him against the Colts. Again, only $5,600. And then finally, Michael Gallup of the Dallas Cowboys coming in at $5,400. He returned last week from his injury. He only had five targets. That game was obviously a big blowout versus the Falcons. They didn't have to be going to him too much, but this game this week against the Chiefs is absolutely amazing. It has a 56 overrun, which is the highest on the slate. We know the Chiefs are very, very mediocre at defense. They're on 28.7 fanning points per game to opposing wide receivers. That's right around the league average. This game should have plenty of scoring with that 56 overrun there. And ultimately, we should be seeing CD-Lam and Amar Cooper both more popular than Gallup, making him a great option at only $5,400. All right, so that does it for this week's Hurry Up. I'll be back next week bringing you more value plays for your DFS lineups.


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel and I do appreciate you being here today We have something truly special the new trailer to the next borderlands game and man It has been a long wait check it out on screen now Okay So first things first although I ain't new to borderlands I was a late to the borderlands party as at the time was just playing other games So there are plenty of people out there with more knowledge on the game than me Well, it is a game I do plan on covering and I probably will go back over borderlands 1 and 2 Also before these things released. So what do we actually learn from this trailer?

What kind of game this will be We can't say it won't be a battle royale game. That's the problem Well people I can give you guys a little reassurance on what type of game this will be and this is coming straight from Gearbox and I don't think it will be a battle royale game. Good news Okay, so if we go through the video trailer on the official borderlands YouTube page and we inspect the page source Then search keywords. We actually see the first keyword they have added is in fact borderlands 3 Now although this doesn't really confirm anything It does give off the message of exactly what they want people to find when searching the keyword borderlands 3 So yeah people it seems as though it's finally happening and borderlands fans will finally get the game that they have waited So long for now like I said, I ain't known for borderlands upon my channel But I do plan on staying up to date with all the latest news surrounding the game as well as covering it when it does Eventually come out because people of my channel you are probably here because of games like destiny apex and so forth Borderlands if you've never played is a game. I guarantee you will enjoy So we definitely worth your time at least staying up to date with the latest news surrounding the game They also stated that they ain't done yet. Be sure to subscribe and tune into more at 2 p.m Edt 11 a.m PDT at borderlands.com for Gearbox's Pax East Livestream that's around 4 p.m UK time folks. So stay tuned ordinary info that drops around in the game I will have you covered right here on my channel, but yeah guys It seems as though borderlands 3 is coming. Wow, I am so hyped It's unbelievable and that note guys we have come to the end of the video Tell me what you think about all this down below within that comments section Do you think it will be a borderlands battery our game?

Let me know down below in that comments section guys, but guys I hope you enjoyed the video and hopefully I will see you on that next one


There is power in the blood of Jesus, power to save, power to wash sins away, power to heal, power to deliver. I want to talk to you about the blood of the Lamb. In the Old Testament, animals were sacrificed in order that people might be made right with God. Today, you and I no longer need to make those sacrifices because one sacrifice was made once for all time. Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God. John chapter 1 verse 29 says the next day John seeeth Jesus coming unto him and sayeth behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world. Under the Old Testament system sacrifices needed to be made again and again and again. But in Christ we have complete liberty. In Christ we are completely forgiven for that one sacrifice. His life laid down was the ultimate sacrifice, the one and only sacrifice needed in order to secure our salvation. Hebrews chapter 9 says this, for Christ did not enter into a holy place made with human hands, which was only a copy of the true one in heaven.  If that had been necessary Christ would have had to die again and again ever since the world began. But now once for all time he has appeared at the end of the age to remove sins by his own death as a sacrifice and just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment so also Christ was offered once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again not to deal with our sins but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.  When he died on that cross, when he offered his blood, he paid a price. You and I were the joy set before him. The accomplishment of the will of the Father was the joy set before him. Romans chapter 5 verses 8 and 9 say this, but God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. And since we have been made right in God's sight by the blood of Christ, he will certainly save us from God's condemnation. And he truly did suffer. For the scripture says in Isaiah 52, 14, just as many were appalled at you, his appearance was so disfigured that he did not look like a man and his form did not resemble a human being. When Christ suffered, he was beaten beyond recognition.  I want you to realize that the body of Christ was itself supernatural. Think of the fact that he was conceived in the power of the Holy Spirit and the very nature of his being was that of the supernatural. So that when he laid his life down, every drop of blood that he bled was precious. Every drop of blood that he bled carried power, carried authority. Every drop accomplished the will of the Father, so much value, so much in every drop, the blood of the Son of God. And that's the price he paid for you and I. Why? He did this, of course, to bring about salvation. He did this, of course, to reconcile us to God. But there are many things that the blood of Jesus does, and I want to show you just a few of them. Number one, the blood brings protection. 1 Corinthians chapter five verse seven says, get rid of the old yeast by removing this wicked person from among you. Then you will be like a fresh batch of dough made without yeast, which is what you really are. Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for us. So Christ was called the Passover lamb because his death was symbolized in the Passover. And of course, as we read of the Passover, we learn of God's protection through the blood. Exodus 12 beginning at verse 21, the Bible says this, then Moses called all the elders of Israel together and said to them, go pick out a lamb or young goat for each of your families and slaughter the Passover animal. Drain the blood into a basin, take a bundle of hyssop branches, and dip it into the blood. Brush the hyssop across the top and sides of the door frames of your houses. And no one may go out through the door until morning. For the Lord will pass through the land to strike down the Egyptians, but when he sees the blood on the top and sides of the door frame, the Lord will pass over your home. He will not permit his death angel to enter your house and strike you down. That's Exodus 12 21 to 23. You see, the blood of Jesus brings protection from the wrath of God. By living lifestyles of sin, people store up for themselves the wrath that is to come. But when they receive the blood of Christ, when the blood is applied to their lives, to their souls through faith, then that appeases the wrath of God and the wrath moves over them.  The blood protects us against those things which come against us here and now. Nothing outside of the will of God can harm us when we're covered by the blood. We apply the blood of Jesus through faith. It's by faith we enter that covenant. It's by faith we are reconciled and the blood brings protection, not only from the wrath of God, but from those things which seek to do us harm here in the earth. Number two, the blood brings authority and deliverance.  And they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die. So in other words, the blood and the word of the testimony is what caused them to overcome.  It's the power of the blood of Jesus that has been applied to you and to your home and to your children and to your loved ones and to everything that you own that keeps it free from demonic power. The moment you were saved, the moment you came under the blessing of the blood, every curse was broken. Every bit of demonic power lost its influence in your life. The power of the blood breaks addictions. The power of the blood breaks bondages. The power of the blood breaks curses every curse. Every curse. I want you to hear that. Every curse is broken in the life of the blood-bought Christian. When God shed his blood, he redeemed you. You became his. He purchased you. He owns you. And if you are under the ownership of God, you cannot be under the ownership of some demonic power, of some demonic curse, of some manipulation by man who is trying to practice some dark power.  When I pray for those who need addictions broken in their lives, when driving demons out of people, I step into the reality knowing, I step into the reality of the blood knowing that God has given me authority over that demonic being. And I plead the blood of Jesus. And when you know the power of the blood, then you'll know the authority that God has truly given you. So number one, the blood brings protection. Number two, the blood brings authority and deliverance. Number three, the blood brings healing. Isaiah 53.5 says, but he was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon him. And with his stripes we are healed. In fact, forgiveness and healing are mentioned alongside one another throughout the scripture. An example, Psalm 103 verses two through three say, Let all that I am praise the Lord. May I never forget the good things he has done for me. He forgives all my sins and heals all my disease. It's the same blood that saves you. The same blood that delivers you is the same blood that heals you. By his stripes you are healed. By his stripes your sicknesses. Yes, that's what the scripture means there. Your sicknesses are healed. When Jesus shed his blood, when his back was whipped by his stripes we are healed. When his back was whipped he was purchasing your healing. He was purchasing your deliverance from sickness. The blood of Jesus brings healing and he wants to make you whole. And you receive healing the same way you receive salvation. It's by faith in what he has accomplished. Number four, the blood brings peace of mind. Isaiah 9.6 says, for a child is born to us. A son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders and he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. What I like to do is I like to contrast Isaiah 9.6 with John 19.2 where the scripture says, the soldiers wove a crown of thorns and put it on his head and they put a purple robe on him. The Holy Spirit showed me this connection that it was with the crown of thorns that Jesus was crowned the Prince of Peace because there he bled on his head which represents the mind. The crown of thorns coming upon him, that crown of suffering, that crown of torment purchased your peace. Jesus went through mental anguish so that you could have perfect peace. Romans 5.1, therefore, since we have been made right in God's sight by faith, we have peace with God. Why? Because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Peace with God is ultimate peace. If you have peace with God, you have no worries. Why?   Even when they speak against you in criticism and try to destroy your name, it doesn't matter what they say about you here as long as your Heavenly Father speaks the better things about you there. It doesn't matter what people say about me so long as God is speaking well of me. So then, if I have peace with God, I am walking in ultimate peace. When I know I'm right with Him, when I know that I'm connected with Him, when I know that my consciousness is clean before Him, it brings peace of mind because what can really be done to me? Who can do what to me if God is for me? Number five, the blood brings forgiveness. Matthew 26-28, for this is my blood which confirms the covenant between God and His people. It is poured out as a sacrifice to forgive the sins of many. Leviticus 1711, for the life of the flesh is in the blood and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. So number one, the blood brings protection. Number two, the blood brings authority and deliverance. Number three, the blood brings healing. Number four, the blood brings peace of mind. And number five, the blood brings forgiveness. Father, I pray right now in the name of Jesus that you would activate the power of the blood in the life of that one receiving this now. I come against sickness and disease in the name of Jesus. I come against every demonic strategy in the name of Jesus. I come against every curse in the name of Jesus for no curse can be upon those who are bought by the blood. I come against every lie. I come against every strategy. I come against those things that would even try to harm your people physically and I plead the blood over that one watching now, over their home, over their family, over their loved ones, over everything that they own. Lord, activate that power in the name of Jesus. We thank you for the blood. We thank you for the power of the blood of Jesus and I want you to say it because you believe it. Say amen. I'd like you to leave a comment in the comment section right now. Why do you think we don't hear sermons on the blood as often as we used to? Let me know your answer to that question in the comment section below and now I want to read some comments from a previous video that we released. The title of the video is Something About Jesus That's Rarely Mentioned and this is actually a video from my series On The I Am and this is specifically talking about how Jesus is the only way. A side that is rarely talked about concerning the Lord is his commitment to absolute truth. Jesus was absolute truth and Jesus claimed to be the exclusive way to God, no compromise and I want you to make sure to take a look at that video.

May God continue to use you and your whole team for his glory and to spread the gospel of Christ. Evelyn Peters writes, Thank you so much Pastor David for this powerful and encouraging message. Divine Allen writes, Thank you Pastor David for encouraging me to share about Jesus no matter what the world thinks. God bless you brother. Annalisa Moberg, Thank you David for your style of teaching the Word of God.  The final comment I'll read from this video comes from Pauline who writes, Thank you so much Pastor David as this topic is rarely preached, especially how you explain the concept so clearly. God truly speaks through you. It was a good reminder of why I'm rejected but I will identify with Christ and publicly proclaim him. I want to share a scripture with you, Matthew chapter 6 verse 33. But seek the kingdom of God above all else and live righteously and he will give you everything you need. You know you hear a lot of talk these days about political unrest or economic instability and there are so many rumors, there's so much information, there's so much coming at us that if we're not careful we can begin to forget that God is sovereign, that God has authority over it all.

From around the globe, it's theCUBE with digital coverage of PostgreSQL Vision 2021, brought to you by EDB. Hello everybody, welcome back to PostgreSQL Vision 21. My name is Dave Vellante, and we're super excited to have Josh Berkes on. He's joining us. He's a leader in the Kubernetes community, extremely well-versed in containerized applications, application development, containerizing databases. All things open source. Cube alum, Josh Berkes, welcome back to theCUBE, great to see you again. Thank you, I'm glad to be here. So just recently, you're coming off KubaCon. We heard some of the themes from that event. There was a lot of focus on inclusion and diversity, which of course, you know, that's the open source ethos. And a lot of discussion around designing security in, the whole conversation about shift left, that's great to see. Larger companies giving back, obviously a lot of the pressure over the years on these big companies that is a one way street. They're actually giving back, making some investments. So we love to see that. And just open source continues to be the main spring of innovation. I got to say, I had a call out in a recent Red Hat survey, the state of the enterprise open source in 2021, 90% of technology leaders said that they're adopting open source. And I joked that the other 10% they're doing it, they just don't know it. But so what were some of your takeaways from the event and some of the trends you're seeing, but specifically as it relates to containers? So, I mean, you're right. One thing is this sort of return to security, the security topic again, because we've had like a couple of things happen. One was, you know, when we initially got, started doing containers of platform with Docker and with early Kubernetes and that sort of thing. We had, we got a lot of container image scan, right? So you have like Claire and Docker has a scanning thing and Amazon and Azure have their own scanning things. And people felt that was kind of good enough for a while, but then we both had the SolarWinds hack. And the thing is like in the meantime, we've gone from a stage where people were mostly using Kubernetes and Dev to people using Kubernetes and production, and there's a lot of extra security issues and vulnerabilities that come up in an actual production environment that people just didn't necessarily think about before. And so now we're looking at adding more pieces to the security stack and making those more standard for everyone who uses Kubernetes. And I've had the chance to work with the StackRock folks since they became part of Red Hat. So it's been very exciting to look at the whole thing and look at things like container supply chain because as SolarWinds showed us, obviously, it's not enough to necessarily just trust the vendor. You need to trust their whole supply chain. I, yeah, and it helps to be able to examine that supply chain. Yeah, it's very scary when you look at that. You're absolutely right. Multiple components of malware coming into an organization through the supply chain, self-forming, different signatures, and so it's great to see the community spending time on that and emphasis on that. Now, I got to cut right to the chase here. In 2018, you wrote a two-part blog series. It's called Should I Run Postgres in Kubernetes? Obviously, it's highly relevant for this community. So I want to talk about your perspective.  So you're welcome and thank you for writing this and communicating the way you do. But talk about when it makes sense and when it doesn't. I mean, that's kind of, my big three takeaways on the pros were simplify, simplify, simplify, especially if you're running application components and other services on Kubernetes, but give us the update three years later. Why should you? Why shouldn't you? Let's actually, let me zoom out to an even bigger picture, which this is honestly like every new platform that we've got, right? So when virtualization and VMware became a thing, we had the same sort of decisions about when do I move my database to this? When AWS and the public cloud became a thing. You know, I could have like, like if I'd written that 12 years ago, I could have written it about AWS and it would have had a lot of the same decision tree. Cause what it really sort of comes down to is the more commodifiable a particular database instance is, the better a candidate it is to move to an advanced infrastructure platform. You know, and the most advanced currently being Kubernetes. So to the extent that you can describe this particular database, what it does, who needs to use it, what's in it in a simple one pager, then that's probably a really good candidate for hosting on Kubernetes. Whereas if you have a database where it's like, hey, the entire company uses it and it's so complicated, we can't describe its inputs and outputs. That's possibly the last thing in your company that you're going to migrate to Kubernetes because in both, both in terms of there's less game to be made there, right? Because the real advantage of moving stuff to Kubernetes is your ability to automate things. The whole way I got into Kubernetes in the first place was I started out, wait on the line, not using containers at all. I was just looking to solve the problem of how do we automate Postgre's high availability? That's what I was looking for. And it started out with something I built using Saltstack called Handywrap that Casey and I built. And mostly that was a problem discovery exercise. We discovered what the hard problems were there. And then we moved from that and then we moved from that to Docker because containers offered an encapsulation strategy because one of the problems you run into when automating high availability is, is the database actually down or not? And so the first thing that containers offered us was not packaging, which people usually talk about, but instead encapsulation, right? Because it's a lot easier to determine is the container running or not than is the database down or not because an actual Postgre's database is multiple components and multiple processes that make it up. And some of those can be down without the others being down, which can then make you think a database is down that's not actually shut down. And being able to put that in a container gives me more of a binary up or down. And then from there, I got into, okay, well, but I need to automate a lot of other components. I need to automate the storage and everything else and that led to Kubernetes. And so if you look at it in terms of deciding when you're going to migrate the database to Kubernetes, you look at, can I take advantage of that automation, right? Is this something that my application workflow and my team organization allows me to do? And if the answer is yes, right? Particularly like if you're in a company that's doing the full DevOps thing where you have a unified development and the infra team that owns the entire stack, then those people are going to be a really good candidate for moving that stack to Kubernetes. Got it. Okay, so let me ask you, so in database, especially in critical apps, recovery is everything. When something goes wrong, you got to recover. So if I understand it correctly, just in reading and listening to you, if you've got Kubernetes expertise and you're building applications in that environment and the application components are in there, am I inferring correctly that you're going to be able to automate and facilitate high quality recovery with certainty? Right, yeah. There's a bunch of infrastructure involved, right? And this is why what enterprises do is they move things like the web front end to Kubernetes first and that is what they should do, right? That is absolutely the right order of things to do because the minute that you're looking at bringing databases in, you're now looking at your whole storage infrastructure, right? So that direct attack storage that was attached physically to one machine is not going to work once you've moved to a container-based cloud, right? You suddenly need a way to be able to attach that storage to any of the nodes in your cluster so that you can move the database around and you can have fellow. And so, but once you build those things up, you can, right? I mean, some of the stuff that I've done, the, I work in the office of the CTO now at Red Hat, so I'm not in production support. So the only Postgres instances I'm supporting are ones for some open source projects we support like the Python project. And in those cases, it's not a high-criticality database but I'm not support, I'm not on call on the weekend so I want something where it doesn't require me to be on call in order for it to stay up. And so putting that in an open shift with the Petroni failover driver was the answer for that and it has failed over in the Red Hat IT team context me and says, hey, we need to move those servers and I'm just add a node to the cluster and delete the old node and it'll do the right thing. And I don't have to worry about it which is really what you're going for there. The other thing I took away from your writing was that you suggested that a lot of the successes in areas where the Postgres databases were rather small and there were lots of them. And so to the extent that you can automate that, you're going to save yourself a lot of problems. Whereas in the flip side, if you're running extremely large databases or there may be performance constraint, that might be an area to be a little bit more circumspect. Yeah, and that's absolutely true because like the other side of this, right? Like I've worked with the DevOps people and the people who are on a Roku and that sort of thing that have one database per application, right? And those people are great candidates for migrating. But then I've also worked at the people who have a one big database for the company where the databases, three terabytes in size, it powers their reporting system and their customer system and the web portal and everything else in one database. That's the one that's really going to be a hard call and that you might in fact never physically migrate to Kubernetes because even if it's on Kubernetes, you are going to mess with the hardware policy to give it its own dedicated machine. So in that case, what I would honestly tend to do is there's a feature in Kubernetes called Service Catalog that allows you to expose an external service within Kubernetes as if it were a Kubernetes service. And that's what I tend to do with those kinds of databases because there's not a huge advantage in actually physically moving the database to a container. There's a bunch of steps involved in going via Service Catalog is a lot easier. But essentially you're speaking the same language in that example that you just gave. Now, the other thing you pointed out at the time that you wrote this article is there's a lot of pre-1.0 kind of alpha in the Kubernetes stack and it might be prudent to not put in your HIPAA compliance stuff, has that changed as it evolved? Yeah, if I was to update two things in the article, I guess that would be one of them. The other one I'll get to in a minute. Great. So the first one is that Kubernetes has progressed along that maturity timeline. We recently added the production readiness reviews as part of our feature review process. We've really improved test adherence so that we're not releasing with known broken tests and a bunch of other things to make it more stable. But part of it depends on who I'm talking to because there's still degrees here, right? So if I'm talking the context of the world of software, then Kubernetes has reached the point of maturity that it is as stable as anything else. And if you use a release, you can assume that any sort of major issues have been worked out. The one difference with it and some other platforms people may have used is, it's still young enough that backwards compatibility can be an issue. As in, Kubernetes releases now three times a year. We've stepped down from four. And within three releases, you can find yourself needing to change API calls, which means needing to refactor parts of your application. So if you compare that with some other things like a JVM platform, right? When's the last time you're to major API change with a JVM platform? So, but you know, the Kubernetes is only six years old. So that's part of that. And then the other thing is the questions we're talking to the Postgres community, right? Which is within Postgres, people run the daily Postgres snapshot in production. I would not do that with Kubernetes. I would wait for release. So there's still kind of a difference there if people are coming from the Postgres community, right? It's the use to this really extreme level of stability that we have with Postgres. And Kubernetes as a much younger project isn't quite there yet. So that's a process change that you have to be aware of if you want to take the benefits of containers with Postgres, you just have to really understand that and make that process part of your change management. Yeah. The other thing I would say has changed is there are new opportunities in running your data warehouse, your big data databases on Kubernetes. A number of platforms, the one I'm most familiar with is Citus because I worked with those folks. I that have taken advantage of Kubernetes as a deployment and management platform for their database, their big data database infrastructure, which makes sense, because if you look at a lot of modern data analysis and data mining platforms that are built on top of Postgres, part of how they do their work is they actually run a bunch of little Postgres instances that they federate together. And then Kubernetes becomes the tool that allows you to manage all of those little Postgres instances. So that's the sort of exception to the should I migrate this really big database, right? That can be a yes if you are migrating it to a big data platform that supports Kubernetes and there can be a huge advantage to it. So obviously you've got the practitioner knowledge and you work within the community. I'm wondering if you can share, just thinking about sort of the motivation to move to a container environment if you're one of the Postgres folks in the audience, can you share any, you know, either anecdotal or other data on business impact, you know, benchmarks that you've seen, you know, some of the things that you've seen with some positives there. If you actually look at my history, we can talk about performance as one, right? And if you actually look at my history, I actually did, and for that matter, some of the folks from Prokona and some of our other folks in the database field did a bunch of benchmarks of running Postgres and MySQL on Kubernetes versus running it not on Kubernetes. And one of the advantages of containers over VMs is that there isn't any intrinsic, there's not any intrinsic sort of layer gap or virtualization that modifies your performance. In other words, if a container is using storage that's present on the node where the container is running, it is using that storage through Linux and therefore the performance is with some caveats, performance is going to be identical to if you were running that on the host system. Now, where performance differences creep in is that you might not be able to use the same kind of storage. In that Kubernetes and container systems in general are organized around the idea that no service is using a majority of the resources on the system. So again, if you're planning on using running a larger Postgres database that really needs all the RAM that a system has, you're going to have to do a lot of tinkering with Kubernetes configuration to get the same performance you would have of running it on a dedicated hardware node. Okay, but fundamentally you're saying that overhead is less with caveats, like you said, you just mentioned the storage. Right, yeah, the overhead is not any different from if you were running it on the host system. So a really good example that was, if you go back to my lightning talk in KubeCon Austin, I think, I showed running a benchmark with Postgres on an AWS instance using EBS storage, both not in Kubernetes and in Kubernetes. And there was no perceptible performance difference between the two of them because it was all metered by how fast was EBS for you. Right, and I said less, but I should have been more specific, less than say you would expect with virtualization. Right, right. So, and so this comes down to a business decision, right? Which is that if you're already on some sort of cloud storage or network storage, and again, you have databases that can share hardware systems, then you shouldn't really expect substantial performance differences by moving to Kubernetes, right? That's something you can eliminate from your set of words. But if you're going in the process of going to be migrating from direct attach storage to network storage, then you are going to see a performance difference, but that's caused by the change in storage. Right. Or if you're going to be moving from systems that are not shared to systems that are shared, again, you're going to see a difference from them. But it wouldn't be any different than if you did that without Kubernetes and containers being involved. Right, so if you're using any world-class shared storage device from whatever, name a big vendor, that's going to accommodate if you're racking and stacking your own flash drives or worse yet, spinning disk drives as direct attach, that's maybe a different story, so okay, that's good. Where would you advise people to get started with Postgres and Kubernetes? The nice thing is there are a number of advanced systems now. And advanced systems that are supported by the various Postgres vendors. And that can actually be a great place to get started because the systems are open source, so you can try them out. This is as far as I know, they're open source, you can try them out, but then if you decide you like them, you can get support. And so that would include crunchy data, EnterpriseDB has a system that I'm honestly have to admit less familiar with than the one that Crunchy runs. Statgres is another one out of Europe that has their own system for running cloud native Postgres. And it's one I'm forgetting. And what a lot of these have to do with is taking advantage of the automation. Because obviously you can put Postgres in container play around, right? But your whole point of moving to Kubernetes in general is gonna be take advantage of the automation so you wanna look at the various automation platforms. And you can go ahead and do that. And the one I'm most familiar with because I've developed it's Petroni, is the component for automating Postgres. You do Petroni plus you do operators. It's another word that comes in here. But if you're looking at this as a business, you're probably gonna want something that's supported or that at least there's a potential to buy support.   Awesome, last question. Where are we in the whole container adoption? We started out kind of you mentioned this stateless and now you're building stateful applications. But still you look at the, we look at spending data with our data part in ETR and containers and container orchestration. It's right up there with RPA, with cloud, with AI just in terms of the attention and resource that's going in. So it's exploding. It feels like it's still early days and there's a lot of legs left. What do you see? Yeah, well, a lot of it is, I mean, you're talking about migrating IT infrastructure, right? So where we are with Kubernetes is we have the early adopters, right? We have all the people who were at the point of building their new infrastructure when Kubernetes came out, right? And people who had major unsolved problems which is a big reason for adopting a new platform was that it just was no old platform for you. And so we had sort of have those people and those people are already on Kubernetes and running their stuff there. And so now we're looking at the really long path of people who are not in one of those camps moving, right? And in a lot of cases, that's a matter of coinciding with other reasons why they have to look at an upgrade. Because even if, you know, whether it's the gradual replacement of old applications by new ones, you know, where you gradually all the legacy applications get offline and the new applications run in Kubernetes or sometimes it's a, hey, we're waiting for a replacement cycle, right? We're waiting for, we already had plans to move from on-prem to public cloud. And so we're gonna move from on-prem to public cloud on Kubernetes to make it part of the migration. And that'll be yours. You know, I still, like, I have fingers into other areas like I always still know a lot of people in the nonprofit space. And a lot of nonprofits just got around to adopting virtualization. Like they're not even at public cloud yet. I don't even talk to them about Kubernetes. So there's this huge long tail in terms of adoption. The nice thing is we don't show any signs of stopping, right? Is that one of the things that we kind of learned from earlier stuff, particularly learned from our friends at OpenStack was to really, really focus on the APIs. To look at who Kubernetes more as the hub of a system with of an infrastructure idea with potentially unbounded growth. So if you have a new concept that comes in like service mesh, service mesh is not a successor to Kubernetes, it's not an alternative to Kubernetes. It is a thing you layer on top of Kubernetes because we didn't make it exclusive. Right, right then, great, great example going back to OpenStack and thank you for bringing that in because lessons learned, right? And so, Josh, we got to leave it there. Thanks so much for coming back. Thank you. Great conversation, you're awesome. Okay, good to talk to you. All right, and thank you for watching everybody.
