We do got merch you feel me You get me don't got mine on it's behind me though. It's on the bed. I Only wear it when as you know And it's time Don't forget we do got the patreon as well man We watched that Monday through Friday Things that we cannot watch on YouTube now that is all located in the link below in the description called link tree Click it. It'll all pop up Carnival was this past weekend, huh? I'm not missing this again So I hope everybody had a great time without me this year, but next year I will see y'all Trust and believe you feel me. I don't know which one of these to click So I'm just gonna kind of look at the thumbnails and see which you know This is why thumbnails are important because that's why I'm that's how I'm coming Thumbnail me pause I Think I'm gonna start like lower and then I'm gonna just work my way towards the top, right? 11 months ago Girl in paradise you and you be outside.

Come on Stewart get into it I want to make no comment on the woman because I don't know who what age is what age out here in a cardigan a Cardigan with a white beater under it. Hey, what's going on? Is it like what's the weather today? Like I'm with this outfit. I'm confused And keep going to this food. You was probably hungry when you recorded this What's in the balloon just freely doing balloon whip it to whatever they call it's no shortage of food out here Dang, they pilot it up. How many pieces of chicken he put on there? You can bang for your buck if this is America. I'm talking about they put one breast a Schoolbook price and peas and in two pieces of cabbage Getting too much now Understand that's garbage, but it's like nieces this neatly piled up It could be worse. I've seen that a little bit late. I am paradise got like 40 videos up There's no way I might go through one more. This is pretty much just walking A lot of forehead just now, but I guess we can't go Bros hitting a vape through the shirt like bro get go home. Hey, hey, we see you I See you low-key getting that number See I'm talking about if you just speak they go give it up man. They dare for this.  Put go ahead put you on a t-shirt.   Let me see. Let me see this one is too long one hour. Yeah, got me That's more of the carnival though itself. Hey, where'd it go? Girl in paradise. Okay, I'm gonna check this one video and then I'm a check and then I'm a check This this is the thumbnail that look promising Check this one and then I'm a check Like the actual carnival like of the people walking by representing the countries in the areas smart enough to see Stop this is a little short ten minute. We're not watching these fully we're flicking through She's still in the same spot Can you imagine like all the hands and all the people just grabbing random spot like this is too much She's standing the same spot this whole time Bro when I'm here. I'm coming in shorts. I'm coming in shorts I might I don't even know if I'm putting on the white ones because it ain't no point They're gonna be Demolished out here. I might put on I'm gonna put on something though. I can't just have nothing on the feet Now I'm saying white Nike socks something on the feet and then I'm shirtless.  I'm seeing over things nicely, you know, man I Like what mark my words? I'm telling y'all how I'm coming to this I'm here all three days, but like look at this guy Okay, we got it. You got a Montclair hat. Okay. It's okay to take that. Oh, we know you spent the bag on that Okay, how you doing? Hi, you got a nice smile your friend in the back. How you doing? You wanna talk to my buddy cool cool cool. I'm talking to her real quick. How you doing though? I like your hair.  I see you with your friends.  Oh She's getting drunk The Magnum in hand is crazy Magnum on the bottle is wild. Yeah, to cut the sound. Oh, yeah, it makes sense The whole bottle of Jamaican rum like you don't you're not gonna be able to function later You're not big enough to be querying the fifth of what Jamaican rum around that's 99 proof Honey proof and she had to mute that music to get that check you get me I would have had everything you did.  I already know I feel it. I'll get you All right now. I see you keep it warm out now. Hold on now the Yeezys. Okay, hold on Talk to me Talk to me Talk to me. Where you going? Can I get you love information or whatever? She was nice. I think that's all I came for at this point You feel me and then I wanted to see a little bit of like the real carnival like the festivities and things of that nature I think we've seen enough people walking and you know, man All the riffraff and things of that nature Where is that? Where are the people? This is the one with the people dancing Oh Whoa, hold on now not not an hour and 59 We ain't doing that for an hour and 59. No, we not Oh, okay. This is the shorter version I got worried I wasn't doing that. I just let's just go right to the answers Just want to see one little performance This is a good one right here They getting it like the bucket boy. All right, man. That's all I came to see man I'm gonna be honest with you, man It always looks like a vibe here always looks like a good time. You come here. You turn up.  Tell them leave you like comment subscribe turn on your post I'll be there next year. You'll see me just as I described See ya


The Benefits of Having Good Rapour with Students It is important to establish rapour with students within a classroom for a variety of reasons. It builds trust between students and teacher, insights confidence in students and allows for a fun learning environment. All aspects of teaching require a teacher to have some sort of rapour with students. Students will retain more information and do better in classes when the teacher is engaged and shows love for their job as well as an interest in their students. Most students will not learn well from a teacher who comes to class, does not greet the students let alone knows their names and just reads through the lesson without showing any interest whatsoever. It is far more beneficial for a teacher to have a good rapour with his, her students as it will make not only learning more enjoyable for the students, but teaching will become more enjoyable for the teacher as well. No rapour equals classroom disruptions. Trust between the teacher and the student is crucial as there is a lot of time that is spent in the classroom. Students need to be able to feel that they trust what the teacher is teaching them and trust that the teacher wants them to succeed. A teacher that has a bad attitude or little to no rapour will not be an effective vessel of learning for students as the students will most likely not trust or respect the teacher. This makes learning difficult for the rest of the class. Students need to be able to trust that the teacher has his, her students best interest in mind when teaching lessons. If a teacher chooses favorites in class, does not follow through with disciplinary actions or makes promises that he or she never keeps, students may view these actions as untrustworthy and will give less respect to the teacher. This could lead to more classroom disruptions and thus less learning. Good Rapour Equals Confidence Students Another important reason to have a good rapour with students is that especially in an ESL classroom where confidence may be lacking, students need to feel safe and secure. A teacher that shows no interest in his, her students will only show students that he or she does not care enough about their students and is just trying to get through the lessons. Many students will already walk into an ESL classroom feeling less confident as this is a completely new realm of learning and vulnerability for them. This may be more true for older children and adults rather than young learners. A teacher must have a good rapour with his, her students in order to build confidence within them to attempt to speak a new language even if they need help with it at first. They need to feel like it is okay for them to make mistakes and to look to their teacher for guidance. A teacher who pokes fun at student pronunciation or refuses to assist a student when asked may show students that he or she does not care or respect the class. This could lead students to reciprocate the disrespect and can lead to classroom disruptions. It could also lead to students refusing to attempt to try because of fear of failure due to the lack of confidence created in the classroom. Good Rapour Equals Fun Classroom Environment Lastly, it is important to have a good rapour with students as it creates a fun classroom environment. When students feel like their teacher is happy about coming to class it, in turn, makes them feel happy about coming to class. Generally, the teacher's attitude will translate on to the students. Teachers who give off the impression that they hate their job, their students, or teaching in general, will only make their students uncomfortable and tense in the classroom. Although learning can take place in rigid intense situations, it is in more flexible and fun environments that learning really takes shape and student goals are met. The Drapour is essential. Teachers need not be best friends with each student and his, her classroom but building relationships and Drapour with students is a large part of teaching in general and the greater Rapour built with students, the greater their learning. If a teacher's greatest goals are to help their students achieve their learning potential, then showing concern and building confidence and trust in the classroom is a small feat to accomplish. We as teachers need to have our students excited to learn and to come to class and we need to build a good Drapour with our students in the process. Are you ready to teach English abroad?

From New York, it's theCUBE. Covering Escape 19. Hello everyone, welcome to theCUBE coverage here in New York City for the Escape Conference 19. This is the inaugural event for multi-cloud. I think it's the first industry event for really talking about multi-cloud and the impact to enterprises and public cloud. I'm my next guest is Steve Mulaney, President and CEO of ABA Tricks, Story, Career and Tech, been there, done that, seen many ways of innovation. Nassira, Palo Alto Networks, and now ABA Tricks. We were tired for a while, welcome back. I did, yeah, five years. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Welcome to theCUBE. Thank you, thanks for having me. It's nice to have you on because I think you have a good perspective on multi-cloud because you've been in the industry since the 80s, both been broken at the same time, and we've seen the waves. This wave is bigger than I think most of the other waves combined because it brings together so many things, infrastructure, software, cloud scale, and a new modern application environment. And then you complicate everything by throwing IoT out there, edges being pushed to boundaries, securities equations changed. All this is going on right now, all at the same time. Yeah, yeah. No, and that's why I was basically kind of retired for five years and I was at Nassira. We got bought by VMware. I stayed there for a couple of years and I just said, okay, that's it, you know. I've had a good career, I'm done. And about a year ago, the world changed and it felt like on a Tuesday morning, just, I noticed enterprises really, we've been talking about cloud for 12 years. And five years ago, they said, we're coming in, we're gonna do it, but they didn't really mean it. But about a year ago, all on the same day, every enterprise said, no, now we actually mean it. And I don't know why. I don't know if it was just people retired or just five years of talking about it. They all decided we're coming in and enterprises all moved together. And this wave, as you said, is bigger than, I was around in 1992, in the early nineties in the movement from mainframe to client server. This is 10 times bigger than that. And more importantly, it's gonna happen 10,000 times faster because what's that? I just deployed 62 data centers around the world because if I can leverage the greatest infrastructure built, basic infrastructure of the hyperscalers, AWS, Azure, Google, Alibaba, Oracle, you name it. It's unbelievable the velocity at which you can now start to play. You know, I think you're on to something big here. And I think this is why I'm here at this event and why I'm excited that a lot of the industry thought leaders and practitioners and leaders are doing this event. Small events, inaugural, but I think it has a lot of legs because there's a lot of tell signs that I like to look at. One is cloud. I've been covering Amazon since eight years now with theCUBE. I've known AWS since it started. I guess I've done many startups and launched, use AWS. But I've had many conversations with Andy Jassy, one-on-ones privately. I got an exclusive coming up for re-invent with him. I've gotten to know him. It started out. Everyone's moving to the cloud. Every data center is not gonna exist. Yeah. And then, you know. Oh, maybe not. Maybe now we'll do an output. So I challenged him last year.  Yeah, it's all AWS or nothing. And he's like, John, look, I'm not, look, I just listened to customers. And I also interviewed when he did the VMware deal. And he's very, they're very customer focused. And when they make these moves with Outpost, and I think it's gonna be a hybrid message this year at re-invent, you know it's real. I think this validates your point. So I gotta ask you, what specifically do you see the formula being for multi-cloud? Because certainly everyone's recognized that there's a huge benefits for AWS for Azure. I mean, from a scale standpoint, so why not use that? What's going on on the enterprise on premise that's making this new thing work? So I think it all starts with architecture like anything else. I think right now enterprises have said, okay, we've burned a boat, right? Now we're not gonna get rid of our data centers, but in terms of our strategic investment, we are moving into the cloud. We are going to leverage the infrastructure of the hyperscalers. And whether that's just one hyperscaler or multiple. And I have not met an enterprise who thinks they're only gonna be one, right? Every single one of them. I don't think they're moving workloads across. I don't think that. I think it's, they see that I'm gonna use Google for AI. I'm gonna use AWS because I started there. I'm gonna use Azure for Office 365 and other different things. And everything in infrastructure is always multi. It's never homogeneous, right? It's always that. And so I think it's gonna happen. And I think what people are begging for right now is I wanna build an architecture that gives me the optionality to be able to deliver a common set of services, whether I'm on AWS or multiple clouds. And I want them to be my services. And I don't wanna have to understand the low level abstractions and constructs of each of those clouds because they're all different. One's metric, one's US, one's like some other weird thing. And I don't have the time that people with the resources to be able to do that. So give me a common set of services that are my services that I can deploy and abstract away the details of those public clouds. Yeah, it's an interesting point there.  And I said that on theCUBE. And here's what I meant. Multi-cloud as an operating model is directionally correct, but the architecture hasn't shown where this true multi-cloud. Now, the fact of the matter is people have Amazon, people have Office 365. That's technically two clouds. If they get with Google, that's three clouds. So if they have three clouds, I guess they have multiple clouds. But you bring up an interesting point and going back as a student of the history of tech, industry, multi-vendor has been a big deal. It is a big deal.  That will happen. The question is how? How do you guys see it happening? Your company is attacking this. What's interesting is, so now you think about it from a customer perspective, which I do the same thing, same thing with AWS. It's always outside it. Okay, I'm thinking as an enterprise IT person, I'm making the move. Do you believe that your basic infrastructure will lever the hyperscalers, or will you build it on-prem? Everyone says, I believe that that is the way I'm gonna go. Great, how do I do that? So, I'm an IT architect. Who do I go to to help me? Do I go to Cisco? No, they're the shocking thing for me. In the six months I've been at Aviatrix, that word's never used. They're not, it's like it was DEC or IBM in the conversation when you were talking about client server. No, why would you? Cisco, Juniper, Aris, any of the networking people, not even in the conversation. VMware, not really in the conversation. So, I don't have any incumbent vendor that I can go to that I used to go to. Why aren't they in the conversation? Because of the commodity that's been extracted away? I think it's just because it's once it's the innovation it's the innovation of dilemma, right?  Why are they doing that? Because they know I gotta get off on-prem, everything's going in the cloud. So, it's a legacy. It's a legacy thing. And I think what happens is we, there's only one reason and one reason only an enterprise customer's not using Aviatrix. Because they never heard of us. That's why. That's the only reason. Once they hear about what they're doing, my God. Well, give the plug. Talk about the company. What are you guys doing? So we deliver, I mean, it sounds like I've made it up for this conference, but actually this conference was perfect for this. It's networking and security services for the multi-cloud enterprise. And we're building an architecture that people can deploy that will give them this common architecture across all the different clouds. So, whether you're just using one cloud or multiple, it doesn't matter. It's the same set of security and networking services. And we do that by embracing and extending the basic constructs that AWS, Google, Azure and Oracle and all the other clouds will give you and to deliver that real enterprise class. Because the other thing that we found is everyone thinks that the cloud gives you everything and anything you will ever need from networking and security. Let's say AWS, I could do everything I need. What the enterprises are figuring out is once they start going in, what they realize is it's created for the common, the low-level common basic constructs. And the enterprise starts saying, well, I need this BGP feature. Because guess what, the data center's not going away. And I need more than 100 route limitations. And all of a sudden there's 50 different limitations AWS will give me. Well, they didn't talk about that. Well, of course they're not going to talk about that. They're just going to go, check, check, check. We solve all your problems. As enterprises now move in with mission-critical applications, they're realizing I need the same level of networking and security services that I had on-prem. I can't get that with the native constructs. So where do I go? That's what we do. So we fill in, we embrace what we can of those constructs. We fill in holes where they're filling holes. And then we give you the mechanism to be able to orchestrate that across a little bit. So you operationalize the hyperscale clouds for the enterprise. That's basically what you do. Exactly, for the enterprise. Yeah, exactly. And the level that they need. So you get the benefits of the cloud, but all those nuances under the cover details like networking and other features, you have strapped that away and provide an operating model for- And the beautiful thing about it is the velocity at which we can deliver. We're over the top, effectively over the top. We're integrated into the clouds. We understand what cloud-native, we understand all the constructs of accounts and all the things that we need to do. But what we expose to the customer, to the enterprise, is a set of over-the-top services that just work. Okay, Steve, so I got to ask you, since we're at the multi-cloud conference, what is multi-cloud? I mean, how do you define, obviously, you laid out a pretty compelling architecture of what needs are, leveraging the cloud and for on-premise, which Aviatrix does. But what is the definition of how should people learn, understand what is multi-cloud? I think for us, for networking and security in that base, so we're basic infrastructure.  So if you're going to build a city, you don't start putting people there first. The first thing, if you do it right, is you get sewers, you get electricity, gas, roads, all that, networking and security infrastructure is basic infrastructure, it goes out first. And you want to create an architecture that's going to live with you for 20 years. You don't want to have to rip up the roads and put the sewers in later. And that architecture needs to be multi-cloud because even though you think maybe most of our customers are 90% AWS right now. But every single one of them say, but I'm moving to Azure, I'm moving to Google, I've got retail customers that won't allow me to put my infrastructure on AWS or I have machine learning, AI type apps on Google. They all say that same thing. But what they all then say to us is you're going to be the mechanism upon which I'm going to be able to deploy this common set of services such that I don't need to know that. All right, give an example of a customer you guys have. If you have a name and name, we had some customer on stage here. So Jeffery, so Mark. It's a real use case. Yeah, so Jeffery's financial services institution, lots of requirements, Mark Leon soon is going to be on stage with me tomorrow. You know, we started working them about nine months ago and exactly the same thing. They said, okay, you know what? We need to start moving to the cloud. We've got to start leveraging the cloud. But it's too complicated, right? It's even AWS says go build. I don't want to go build. I want to consume services, but they don't have all the services that I needed. They're too low level. They have very high function, high enterprise requirements. So they start using us to orchestrate things, to provide transit networking, to provide egress filtering out to the internet. We have high performance encryption. You know, AWS only offer it one gig. We can offer it to 10, 20, 30, 40 gig. So they start deploying, they start realizing all the things we do. Then they go and say, I want to bring my Palo Alto network firewall into the cloud. When you start looking at that, because I guess what, all my policies, I want the same level that I have on-prem, I want it in the cloud. If I go try to bring in my VM series into AWS, the constructs that AWS give you they cause you limitations in performance, invisibility. It's integration hassles. It's integration hassles. It doesn't, it's performance, scalability, visibility issues. They force you to use SNAT. And there's all these issues that they go, oh my God, there's PANES. We solve all that for them. We basically cloudify the VM series for them. So all those limitations don't go away. And so then that's just another use case that they use. So now they start looking and they say, okay, now I'm going to start standing into other clouds and I want to use you as a common frame point, that common pain in class. Well, Steve, good luck on your venture. You're back on the saddle again. Another ride here. You feel good about it? This is going to be the best, the biggest that I've been. And I was at Palo Alto Networks in VMware in Nassirah and this one's going to be bigger than both of them. What's your vision for where this is going to be for you? Where do you see the company in a few years? What are some of the outcomes you expect to happen? Our opportunity, and I look at it as I say, someone's going to take this opportunity. And the reason I came back is why not us? Someone's going to take it. And the opportunity, honestly, is to become effectively what Cisco was in the early 90s, to define the architecture, the networking and the security infrastructure architecture for enterprise customers. They're begging for that right now. That's our opportunity right now. Cloud interoperability. Interoperability, yeah. And so there's so many things that we need to go and do. When you look at also the thing that people don't understand, the operations. So many people think I want it the same as it was on-prem. I think with actually the cloud and across multi-cloud, if you do it right with us, it's actually better because the visibility that you get is actually more than what you get on-prem. Well, and the thing that's interesting, that's different about this new world that we're talking about is that there's going to be constant improvements in new things, which means that the functionality game is going to increase, which means the agility is even more important because the apps are going to have more things to do. Yeah. I mean, in the end, why do you want to go to cloud? Because I want it to be self-service and I want agility, right? I want my developers, I want everybody to be able to do things quicker because all of a sudden they say, let's go roll this out and you want to be able to do it. Well, good luck on the new venture. AVH, check them out, hot multi-cloud startup growing. How many people do you have? Put the club in. 100. What are you guys looking for? Are you hiring? We just hired a new VP of worldwide sales, James Weimbrenner, who is the Viptel CEO. VP of sales in Cisco. Hiring a tremendous amount of sales guys right now We're closing out a $40 million series C round next week and we're hiring a lot of people. Good luck. We'll be following you, Steve. Thanks for coming on to sharing your insights. Again, multi-cloud. This is a shift that's happening. Multi-cloud is just another word for multi-vendor in a new modern era. This is what it has been in the tech industry but a whole new world. It's a cube coverage here in New York City. Escape, 19, I'm John Furrier. Thanks.


Are you ready to start? Yeah? All right. Good morning, everyone. So what he said just now is his name is Wen. He's the CTO of Stuck and Wen. He's also a happy fruit. My name is Gao Xiujiao. I'm a cloud engineer of Stuck and Wen. Bless you. Today we will be talking about SHIELD, a backup and restore solution for cloud foundry and its services. We'll fill you in on what that actually means. Before we start to talk about SHIELD, please allow this happy fruit talk about Stuck and Wen quickly. Stuck and Wen is a consultancy that helps you be a superhero to your organization and clients by our customers by succeeding with your cloud foundry and Paz story. We help with everything from the infrastructure level up through automating all of the operations of the Paz itself through the 12 factor applications. We can help you flush out that entire story. We basically come in, we fill in any gap, integrate all the components, maybe you have some legacy, big iron things or whatever. We help you integrate those into your cloud foundry. We apply automation and all of those things. And then we also focus on teaching you how to maintain this thing moving forward yourself. Essentially we come in, we partner with you and your team. We work alongside you guys to carry you past the steep learning curve and greatly increase the speed of your adoption getting you started faster and sooner. That's Stuck and Wen. So back to SHIELD. What exactly is the problem that we are trying to solve with SHIELD? Let's first take a very brief look at the current state of backups, restores for both cloud foundry itself as well as related services. Today there is no overall comprehensive backup and restore solution for cloud foundry and its services. Sure there's a lot of little projects here and there and tools to get you bits and pieces and some tribal knowledge which you have to like sacrifice some kind of animal to and in order to back up successfully or whatever. But really not a good story. PCF itself does have a very well documented manual backup process with a diagram that makes your eyes bleed because of the number of components and steps. True story, we had to rush one of ours to the hospital after it. So basically it's there, it exists and it is very well written. There's also a tile that PCF has that can allow you to like back up certain components and stuff like that. Comprehensive overall systemic, not really, you're kind of out on your own. As for services, oh wonderful services, I love services, I love playing with services, service brokers, ooh, good times. Unfortunately if you are a service implementer or service operator, it's kind of punted. That's yours to figure out how to back up your service, how to provide that. A lot of people wrap custom APIs, they run cloud foundry apps that tie to their services. All kinds of solutions exist to this today. But there still is no real up until now. Great like story for this. Which does bring us to why you guys are all here listening other than the fact that it's the closest thing to the registration desk. Basically why did we start Shield? Why did we go this way? Why did we keep on working on this product at all? So we've been helping GE with this little project called Predix.io and there are some amazing people doing amazing things and we couldn't be happier to be helping out with this project. A lot of stuff was talked about investigating their disaster recovery scenarios.  So we were helping them with this on the Predix.io. We needed to flush out what the disaster recovery backup restore solutions were for not only cloud foundry core itself. But we also needed to focus on what about the services too? We've got to figure out the solutions to those. We're going to document these on the internal wikis and we go through these ritualistic incantations in order to summon the backup beast and whatever. Or do we have a same way of moving forward with this? Well some very brilliant people that work at Stark and Wayne actually came up with these things and with an approach to this. We already had a project that they were toying with on their own in an open source that basically hadn't had a lot of effort because well frankly you know on your own time that's not a lot of time right? So in order to help GE we figured out that this project would be a perfect fit for this effort. So with GE's help allowing us to work on this a lot we were able to carry this project across the finish line. As of today this project which we're talking about today has been running in production at GE for over six months now. So it's a really encouraging thing. Very very good open source story there. Thanks to GE of course. SHIELD as it stands is essentially a drop in solution to anybody's boss releases and can tie in the services, service brokers, all of these things. So this does address the services story. Essentially it allows you to focus on as a service implementer remember that was on your either the implementer or operators of the services to figure out these things. SHIELD allows you as a service implementer or operator to focus on either implementing your service or operating your service and SHIELD basically focuses on your disaster recovery backup and restore stories as well as migration stories which you will hear about a little bit later. This addresses all of those things. Specifically what kind of services you might ask well today SHIELD backs up and restores services such as PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Redis, et cetera, et cetera and several others. I'm not going to go into details on how I'll leave that for later but it can support any services we need. It's for cloud core cloud foundry itself. SHIELD can also back up cloud foundry as well as Bosch. Essentially it allows you to back up any Bosch deployment. Cloud foundry is deployed via Bosch can back up oh hey I get it. So essentially any Bosch deploy system that you want all you need to do is essentially write a plugin to SHIELD to back up whatever the thing is that you are backing up if the plugin doesn't exist already. You essentially deploy SHIELD alongside your existing Bosch deployments using this mechanism within Bosch called co-located Bosch releases and now I'm going to let XJ fill you in on the details of the project. What? Wait I was enjoying your presentation. Okay so now I will talk through the framework architecture of SHIELD and the features of SHIELD. The framework of SHIELD is pretty simple as you can see here. It consists four parts a core diamond, target plugin, storage plugin and user interfaces. One question often asked by our client is why are there both target plugin and storage plugin? So I will answer this question here by explaining how backup and restore works. So when we back up data the target plugin will retrieve data from your data system then send it to storage plugin. The storage plugin here will upload a single data blob to your storage system whatever it is you configured then it will return a key to you which you can use later for your data retrieval. Sometimes accidents happen we lose data then we come to the point we have to restore the data. So when we restore the data how it works the workflow is like this. The storage plugin will use the key to retrieve the data then send over to target plugin. The target plugin will just load the data into your system then you got all your data back simple right? The next piece is a core diamond. Core diamond is a central component of SHIELD. It has many different functionalities here I will cover several important ones. First one core diamond is responsible for metadata management basically it will track what target and the store exists, what jobs you configured, what schedule retention policy you defined, what backup restore jobs have taken place and what are their results. Also it will tell you what tasks are in flight. The core diamond also can configure your backup jobs like you want to decide what you want to backup right? Where you want to put it then you can configure job as you need. A task here basically just a job an instance of job being run. So it can run backup restore jobs according to the schedule we talked about earlier or we can kick off backup restore jobs on demand. Quite nice huh? Scheduling SHIELD car allows you to define the schedule like what time you want to backup maybe 1am that's a golden time or how often you want to backup daily, hourly, how long you want to keep your backup you keep one year or you keep a couple of months you can all configure that. Next one is the core diamond also exposes the metrics statistics of your backup jobs.  Is your restore finished successfully? All those metrics also can be aggregated. You can send those metrics over to any aggregation system you have. The last piece of the framework is the user interface. We designed a web UI and a CLI. This as you can see this is a screenshot of SHIELD web UI. So using this web UI we are able to view and edit your jobs, view and run your backup and restore on demand. Also you can edit or update your schedule your retention policy. On top of that it also shows us from here you will see it will also show us what's the running task we have and what's the complete task of this log. So it will show you all those. It's simple but it has everything here. SHIELD also have a very well documented extensive CLI. Probably you cannot see clearly here but you can see a basic idea here. So that basically covered the framework of SHIELD. Next I'm going to tell you a couple of stories about the features of SHIELD. SHIELD is distributed as a boss release. Just like all other production grade enterprise software is, right? Like for example maybe Cloud Foundry? Yeah that. What? Yeah I'm glad to make you guys laugh. So in order to use SHIELD to backup data what we need to do here is very simple. You just configure your SHIELD agent on your deployment. For example if you want to backup your Cloud Foundry okay configure SHIELD agent on your CF deployment. You want to backup RabbitMQ, Redis, all that? Just configure SHIELD agent on your deployment. It's pretty easy. Also where you want to store your data? I may want to store my local file system. Okay configure your store on your local file system. You may want to store it on your S3. That's doable too. I'll swift all that. Like it can support like many different of target and store plugins. Yeah another thing I want to say is using SHIELD it becomes very straightforward if you delete your entire deployment then you recover everything after redeploying. That tells us what? This enables a functional disaster recovery plan. Oh I love this story. Yes SHIELD can also backup a restore your boss. So I will share with you a smoking whole story here. Imagine you have SHIELD running. You have all your deployments being backed up by SHIELD.  Like bring it right down to the ground. Nothing left. Now zero piece of your hardware is working now. What are you going to do? Probably the first step you want to set up a new hardware right? Then what? Maybe we can spin up a boss. Then we can use boss to deploy SHIELD. After that we can use SHIELD to restore our deployment. Guess what happened now? You just left all your boss database. Your SHIELD deployment is off now. So we designed SHIELD to solve this problem. When you want to recover your boss you don't need SHIELD diamond running. Yeah we just designed that way. If you are interested, check our repo later.  Use this excellent feature of SHIELD to recover all your deployments. Include SHIELD itself. SHIELD is not only for operation folks. There is also a feature where you can enable service application users to use SHIELD to manage your database backup and restore. I will share you another example here. Assume that you have an application using PostgreSQL database. Somehow over time you got lots of data. You need a larger database. Now how you are going to migrate your data? You're SHIELD. So it's simple. You just use SHIELD to backup your database. Then you create a larger database instance. Also we have RDPG which is a reliable PostgreSQL database service. Okay come back to SHIELD. So then you spin up a larger PostgreSQL database. Then you use SHIELD to restore your data on this new larger database. Guess what? You get all data in the new database. Very easy, right? Writing plugins is just a piece of cake. Yummy one. Cheesecake, strawberry, ice cream. You name it. Okay.  Because you start with the framework we already provide for you. Basically you don't need to worry about metadata management. You don't need to worry about schedule monitoring retention policy. You can just focus on your solution. How you backup and restore your data. Imagine this. You don't want someone who has access to your SHIELD API. Then just access all your backup and restore information, right? That will be terrible. So we designed the SHIELD in a way we have authentication. It's implemented using OAuth2 and it can be done with basic HTTP authentication, support GitHub authentication. All you can do is through CFUA. So that's all the cool features I want to share with you guys. Now let's help you share with you the future of the SHIELD. So let me take you on a very brief, trippy explanation of what we see or hallucinate as the future of SHIELD. And sort of priority order as we see it. However, that obviously could be influenced by your voices. All right. Primarily, the next one on deck is encryption and decryption. Encryption and decryption at rest. We want this to be fully supported out of the box by default. This is going to be supported at the plug-in level. So basically, if you write into your plug-in, here's how I get the data for my servers and here's how I restore it, you automatically get the encryption and you didn't have to worry about it. That's pretty sweet. Crypto for free. Like that always happens. But in SHIELD it does. Pretty cool. Well, it will. All right. Next up. So we're all familiar with the concept of incremental backups. You take one massive backup that takes God awful forever and then you just kind of take backups at regular small intervals to record the changes over time until you take your next massive one. Hopefully not daily and they don't take more than 24 hours to run. But hey, that's another story. So basically why we do, we want to target this as a supported feature for the plug-ins. Well, two reasons, right? This is about minimizing the storage requirements, making it more a little more streamlined as well as reducing the amount of wall clock, time and CPU and resources that are attributed to the process of keeping backups through time. Next up, we want to take what we have today for monitoring which is very simple and basic and we want to extend this to make it easier for operations folks to get more introspection into SHIELD operations itself such as wouldn't it be great if not just knowing when jobs started, when they complete, did they succeed, did they fail? Well, what was the average runtime of jobs for this particular plug-in or this particular system or this particular thing, right? Average runtimes of execution, average sizes of the backups of all these things through time. Like it helps you to kind of identify, hey, that guy is storing large binaries in his database. What's going on guy? Or whatever else you're actually doing, right? So we want to make it take the metrics to the next level and make it even more useful for keeping track of what is going on and allowing you to get to root cause analysis of why this fill up much faster or preferably even way ahead of time, right? So obviously there's more to that story than that. That's a really brief synopsis of that. Another thing. There is one recurring theme that keeps recurring. Don't worry. His native language is not English. Try this again. There is one recurring theme while we help folks with their production environments and that is handling of sensitive storage of sensitive things like credentials, right? Encryption, decryption keys, passwords, all of these things. This is a very high priority item within organizations and it's usually, unfortunately should be ahead of time maybe, but usually it's a, whoa, we're running a production. Oh, now we got to do that. But still, it's a huge thing to address. Well, we want to make it easy for SHIELD to enable that story for everybody in a straightforward manner so that they don't have to bake up something half-baked and, you know, we want to make a fully baked solution so they can have their cake and eat it too, right? Cake. So basically what we're going to do is we're going to take and add integration points into SHIELD where all the right points of encryption keys and credentials and all these things, we're going to allow them to be stored and retrieved in systems such as Vault. So that's the credentials handling. So, I mean, we have other ideas for the future. We'd love to hear even more ideas, okay? So what I would highly encourage everyone to do is get yourselves involved, right? It's a young project, but it is a production project. We encourage everybody to basically help shape its future. Like, how are you going to do that, right? Well, it's an open source project. How do you do that with open source projects?   You write a plugin. Ooh, that's a good one. I didn't think of that. You write plugins. Hey, I've got the most awesome database in the world. Here's a plugin for SHIELD to allow it to be backed up and restored in the context of Cloud Foundry. We all win. Great. So, yeah, so basically you can also, so that's all on the open source front and also, you know, come to us at Starker Wayne and help you succeed in incorporating SHIELD into your own infrastructures. Help us to define your disaster recovery story and train your people on how to actually use it, should disaster befall. Let's hope not, but it happens. So basically, if you do decide to want us to let us help, right, you can email us there, be a hero at Starker Wayne, or we're here this week, right? Come talk to us at our booth over there. I highly encourage it. Yeah. Come for free t-shirt, free business card, free handshake, free hats. Hugs are from me. Handshake from me. Thanks for your attention. Do you have any questions? Keep in mind that we are almost out of time and you can come visit us at the booth in mass for actual questions as well. In the case of services, have you given much thought to how to restore the state of service instances in the CCDB as a part of restoring not just the service itself, but the services state from Cloud Foundry's perspective? So it's the week we've gotten to. Any others? There's no others because they will all come to our booth. See you guys all at the booth in the exhibit hall. Happy to talk to you.


Okay, this is what we see in Psalm 65 and verses 1 to 4, right, Psalm 65, 65, praises awaiting you, O God, in Zion, and to you the wow shall be performed, O you who hear prayer, to you all flesh will come. Iniquities prevail against me as for our transgressions, you will provide atonement for them. Blessed is the man you choose and cause to approach you, that he may dwell in your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of your house, of your holy temple. And verse five also, by awesome deeds in righteousness, you will answer us, O God of our salvation, you who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth and of the far off seas. And then it goes on to say what else the Lord does, right? So it says, blessed is the man who you choose and cause to approach you, that he may dwell in your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of your house, of your holy temple. And verse five, by awesome deeds, awesome deeds in righteousness, you will answer us, O God of our salvation, you who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth and of the far off seas. So as we look to him, you know, and pray as we start this day, just be mindful of the fact that he's the one who hears prayer, right? He hears our prayer. And as the psalmist writes, that we draw near to him with praise and with our prayer, with our petitions. And he answers by awesome deeds in righteousness, with awesome deeds in righteousness, which means, you know, works that are awesome or inspiring. And these are works of righteousness, because he is righteous. And it's very clear that he answers. So let's go before him today with our praise. Let's go before him today with our prayers and with our petitions. And may the Lord answer with awesome deeds in righteousness. Let's pray, Father, we thank you, Lord, that you are the God who always hears Lord, always hears our prayer, Father God, we thank you. We come before you this morning with praise.  Lord, you are worthy of the praises of the entire earth of Father God and the entire universe of Master. Yes, Lord, even as we see in your word of Father God in the heavens and on the earth and under the earth of God, that every tongue shall confess and every knee will bow and every tongue confess that you are indeed Jesus, the Lord. And Lord, we come before you in praise.  So we give you praise, Father God, this morning. We give you thanks for all that you do God. And this morning we drawn you with petition with our prayers of Father God prayers for ourselves. Lord, Lord, we pray for our own spiritual lives that it may be enriched. Lord, we pray for our own walk with you, God, that we may walk closely. Lord, we pray the Lord that every, every decision, every choice that we may undertake, we may take up Lord, may be made in you, Father God, as led by your spirit of Father God. And Lord, may our life Lord reflect your glory, Father God, because you have called us to proclaim your virtues, to proclaim, declare who you are, Lord, through our lives, God, to what, what we, how we live our lives and what we declare through our mouths of God. And so may we do that, Lord. And Father God, even as we bring our petitions, God, personal needs and requirements and, and everything, Father God, the breakthrough breakthroughs that we need, the directions that we need, Father God, Lord, we bring them before you, Lord, because you're the one who answers prayer. And Lord, even as we read in your Psalm, read in your word, God, we see that by awesome works of righteousness, God, you will answer awesome deeds in righteousness. Lord, we thank you that you will answer. And so we, we stand on your promises, we stand, Lord, in faith, Lord, that it will be an awesome deed in righteousness, God, it'll be all inspiring, it will be so noticeable, but it will be a work of righteousness. We thank you, Lord, we thank you for this promise. And we receive it in our lives, God, in all the areas, Lord, that, that need, Lord, these awesome needs, God, awesome deeds of Father God, and all areas that that need that require you to step in, Lord, we invite you and may your awesome deeds and righteousness, Lord, change those very things, God, that we've been praying, that we're asking you and inviting you, Lord, and yes, Master, have your way. We give you praise on all the glory in Jesus' matchless name, we pray. Amen. Amen. Okay, welcome back. Welcome once again. Okay, let's turn to Ephesians. And we are looking we've finished with Galatians. So, so there will be a quiz. I'll I'll post it. And now you can do that quiz, take up that quiz, right? Now, we've been looking at Ephesians, we looked at how Paul went to Ephesus, and how he spent time in his initial visit was a very brief visit, but the second visit he spent close to three years established a church, a strong work was established there. And the work seemed to have spread because people came from the surrounding regions to be taught by him in at the school of Tyrannus. And, and he trained them, he seems to have been a very, very, very powerful work because a lot of people were trained who went to the surrounding regions and who shared the gospel as well. Right? So, we've been looking at chapter one, chapter one, you see that it's, it's talking about who what the believer has, when he has come, when he or she has come to Jesus, what the believer has received, what the believer has become in Christ, in receiving Christ, in becoming a believer as a new creation, what the believer has received, you know, it's very powerful. Because we see that we've been chosen, we see that we are blessed, right? That we've been blessed beyond measure in Christ, blessed with every spiritual blessing, right? Which means that the entire list, whatever is that we can say as, you know, okay, that's a blessing, that is a blessing, the entire list of blessing, you know, we have been blessed with in this, in the heavenlies, and we have been every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. So we are blessed, and we are chosen, it says that we chose us in him.  So he cannot make us do what we don't want to do. He always gives us that choice. So he's given us the choice. And when a person receives Christ, you know, then, you know, he, the Lord, of course, being omniscient, he knows the choice that we make. So, so when a person receives Christ or chooses to follow Christ, then it says that, you know, we are chosen in him. We are chosen. And the word we see there that chosen to be holy, chosen to be blameless, chosen chosen in him to be holy and blameless before him in love, the ones who have made the choice to follow Jesus, right? That is verse four. Then we see in verse five that we have been predestined, okay, that word predestination, predestined meaning that what are we predestined to be? We are predestined, which means that he has already decided that this is what will happen to a child of God, right? When a person becomes a child of God, how does a person become a child of God or family come into the family of Christ? It is only through Jesus. Excuse me, sorry. It is only through Jesus, right? Only when a person receives Christ, like we see in John chapter one. Okay. So when that happens, then we are predestined. What are we predestined? We are predestined to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to himself. Okay, this is we are predestined to be adopted as his children, as the family of God. And then talks about redemption. And then what he made us, you know, the wisdom, the grace that he made to abound towards us and all that we saw, you know, and we went up to chapter, I mean, to verse 14, I think, right? So let's look at verses 13 onwards, 13, and then 13 and 14, and then, and then go forward, right?  Okay, so what we what we see here is that Paul saying that you trusted and you believed. Okay, in whom you trusted in Christ, you trusted.  Okay. Then is a second part of the words he said, in whom having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. So this is what happens to a person who puts the trust, and who believes in Christ, who believes because of hearing the word of truth, who trust in Christ, hearing the salvation message, who believes. So what happens is when a person believes in Christ, that the person is sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, there is a mark of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit, you know, the viewers of the mark of possession, like saying that, okay, you are mine. You are mine. We belong to God. It's a mark of ownership. Right. And then verse 14, who is the guarantee of our inheritance? He's the guarantee. He's the, he's the earnest. He's the title deed. Right. He's the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession to the praise of his glory. So the Holy Spirit in dwelling us is a guarantee of more things to come. Right. Is a guarantee, which means it's an earnest just like how we would say, okay, it's the down payment that has been made. Now, what is going to happen is that there's going to be a full redemption of the purchased possession, redemption of the purchase. So the, so the price has been made, the purchase has already been made, and the Holy Spirit in dwelling us is the guarantee. Right. Is the, is the, the earnest, right, is the earnest or the down payment of what? There will be a full redemption, meaning that we will receive a glorified body that that this, it won't be earthly, fleshly body anymore. It'll be a spiritual body and it'll be, it is not something that'll be prone to weakness. Right. So we read about that. So we see that that is what, you know, we will receive that is the, that is what we will, that is what we will, we will become on the redemption is complete until the redemption of the purchase position to the glory of, to the praise of his glory. That's verse 14. Okay. So, so the thing is the Holy Spirit in dwelling us is, is this is the guarantee. Okay. So we see another powerful truth that we are blessed, we are chosen, and we, we are indwelled by the Holy Spirit, indwelled by the Holy Spirit, and we are, of course, we are redeemed. Okay. Let's, let's look at verse 15. I just put this. Okay. So it's coming up. Yeah. Okay, verse 15. Okay, verse 15 onwards. Let's read. Therefore, I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and your love for all the saints, do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe according to the working of his mighty power, which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come. So we'll stop there. So here, Paul begins to pray for the efficient church, for the believers in the church in Ephesus. So he says, therefore, after I heard of your faith, and your love for all the saints, not only your faith, but love for all the fellow believers, when I heard of the faith and love, I do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers. So I've not stopped praying for you, I've not stopped thanking God for you, ever since I heard of your faith and love, right? So he says, this is what he prays. This is the prayer. So that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him. So he prays here for, he says, for the spirit of revelation and wisdom. He prays basically for the Holy Spirit. He's called the spirit of revelation and wisdom for a reason because he brings revelation and he brings wisdom. And so he's called the spirit of revelation and wisdom. So Paul is praying and saying, you know, let there be wisdom, let there be revelation. I pray to the spirit that the Father, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him. So a few things that he prays for, you know, in the list, we see that he prays for the people to receive revelation, wisdom in the knowledge of Christ. So simply put it says that we may know him, that we may know him, that we may come to a place of knowing him. And that word used there, you know, that spirit and revelation and the knowledge of him, that means epigenoses, which means, you know, exact, accurate knowledge that you may know him accurately by the help of the Holy Spirit. With the help of the Holy Spirit that you may know him accurately so that they may not be a wrong understanding about him. The Holy Spirit when he leads, he gives us accurate understanding, right? He gives us the correct picture. He gives us the true nature of God himself. Right. So that is why, you know, we need to depend on the Holy Spirit. So he prays, and he says, may the spirit of revelation and wisdom give you, give to you revelation, sorry, they give to you spirit, the spirit of revelation and wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him. So the Holy Spirit will enable us to know him, that we may know him. And the second thing he prays is the eyes of your understanding, being enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the same. So we pray for two other things. One is, what is the hope? What is the expectation? The hope is expectation, like it's a healthy expectation. So what is the hope of his calling? What is the expectation in his calling? What can you hope for? What can you expect? In other words, the details of his calling, his purpose in all this, why is he calling? What is he calling you to do? And so he's saying that you may know the eyes of your understanding would be enlightened, like that you may know in the inner man, that he may give you understanding. So it won't be something that is hidden anymore. It won't be something that is vague, something that is unclear, but something that is accurate, as that the spirit of the Holy Spirit, the revelation and wisdom, may he give you knowledge of him. And may he also give you, may he open the eyes of your understanding, may it be enlightened, which means, you know, let there be light, light always talks about knowledge and understanding, and and dispelling darkness, right? So darkness, meaning there is ignorance or lack of clarity, right? It's not something that we cannot see. But here he's saying, may you, may you see, may you see, may you understand, may you let it be clear. And, you know, let there be, you know, in other words, he's saying the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, meaning let it, let it brighten up, let it illuminate and make you see what are the one is the hope. The second thing is what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. Okay, so that's the second thing, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. So now, so which means that what is the, you know, riches, the wealth, the blessing, the inheritance that you have as a child of God. Okay, so may he give you understanding. The other way to look at it, some of the translations also see, look at it another way where see, what is the inheritance that God has in us as saints in us as believers. If you read it, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. So you know, people have looked at it that way also, which is just fine. But the thing is that the Holy Spirit enabling us, giving us understanding, giving us wisdom about the hope about the inheritance. Okay, what is the inheritance? What does God promised what, what, what, what is mine because of how I've come to be in Jesus, right? Because of my relationship with the Lord, because of my covenant with me. Okay, then the fourth thing that he lists is that what is the verse 19, what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us? Okay, what is the exceeding greatness of his power? So that's another thing that we, we are called, or he's praying for the believer to know. Okay, what is the greatness, you know, what is the immense magnitude, okay, the quantity of what his power can do really. So the what is the greatness of his power and the word used there is dunamis, which means miraculous power, supernatural power. Right. So what is the magnitude or what is the greatness exceeding greatness, right, exceeding greatness, meaning, you know, it's like saying great greatness, right, which is exceeding, which is going beyond every measure, like every restriction, right, it's exceeding and greatness, exceeding greatness of his dunamis, which is miraculous, wonder working power. Okay, so who is bringing it into our realm or who is opening our eyes, giving us that understanding is the Holy Spirit. So he prays that may you receive that right, may you know this exceeding greatness of his power. You know, the thing that we see there is that, you know, what is the exceeding greatness of his power towards us? Who believe? That's the thing, you know, the ones who believe the ones who place confidence in the ones who trust in God. Right. So, so only then, you know, are you going to, you know, are you going to even experience or see the greatness of his exceeding power. So he's praying, you know, let their eyes be understand, let the eyes of understanding be opened, let it be enlightened to know this, right, that you may know, and the word know also, it, you know, it means to perceive with our senses. Okay. You know, to observe something to perceive with our senses. Now, to, to really know this in our through our spiritual senses. Right. It's, it's, and it's both. It is also to understand with our mind to, you know, to perceive it to observe it to study it. Right. And by, you know, to notice, to discover, to, to see it in with us with our senses. So if, which means that, you know, may you receive it, may you know it, in your spirit, the eyes of your understanding being opened. And he says that may you know the exceeding greatness of his power. Now, verse 19, according to the working of his mighty power, okay, and it continues in verse 20, which he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places far above all principality and power and might and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come. So he's, you know, this is the kind of power. So he's saying, you know, you need to know this. Right. In other words, you need to let the Holy Spirit enable you to experience, experience through your senses, the exceeding greatness of his power. And, and he's saying, you know, this is the same power which he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead, which means this, this resurrection power. Right. Christ was raised from the dead. This resurrection power which, which worked in Christ because of which he was raised and he was seated at the right hand in the heavenly places and using the heavenly places far above all principality and power and might and dominion and every name that is named only, not only in this age, but also that which is to come. So he's saying, you know, far above is separated far above all principality and power and so on. So this is where he is, you know, he's in the highest place and not only is in the highest place, but he's also, you know, the preeminent one, the sovereign one. He is the head overall. Right. So this power, may you know, you see, so this is God's will for us. And he's praying for the efficient church and he's saying, may you know it, may you understand it or that you may know him. Right. And so these four things he prays. So these are four things that we can pray over our lives also. Right. We can pray over our lives. We can paraphrase this, these verses and then say, oh, God, you know, I thank you Lord and say, Lord, Lord, I need to know. I may you give me, you know, I receive the spirit of wisdom and revelation leading me to give me knowledge in the knowledge of you, spirit of wisdom and revelation to lead you to the knowledge of you and the eyes of my understanding being enlightened that I may know, you know, you change those words and pray it over yourselves that I may know what is the hope of his calling, what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints and what is exceeding greatness of his power towards me who believes in you according to the working of his mighty power and so on. So you know, these are things that we can pray over our lives. Right. Okay. Then verse 22 and he put all things under his feet and gave him to be head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all. Okay. So this is how chapter one ends and he put all things under his feet talking about the authority that Christ has, talking about the headship that Christ has, all things under his feet and he gave him to be head over all things to the church. Right. So church, which means the body of believers, the called out one. So you and I, so we receive Christ who is the head of all things. Right. He's head of the church. He is head over all and this and the church gives us the definition of, you know, what, what, you know, or the spiritual, you know, thing that church is a description of the church, which description says that church, which is his body. Right. It is the body of Christ and that's why we say, you know, church is the body of Christ. Christ is the head of the church. So both ideas are here. The both those truths are here that gave him to be head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all and in all. Okay. The fullness, so which means every believer is part of the body of Christ and in every believer, the Lord Jesus fills all in all the fullness of him dwells in every believer. The fullness of who Christ is, you know, his deity, his omnipotence is, you know, whatever makes him God, whatever makes him deity, the fullness of him dwells in the body of Christ, right, dwells in the church, all in all the fullness of him who fills all in all. Okay. So that's, that's the thing. So this is the body of Christ, the body of believers, the other body of Christ, the fullness of Christ fills every body, which is part of the body of Christ. Okay. So we understand that and so it is, this is something to be treated with honor, right, treated respectfully because we see that the church is the body of Christ. Okay. It's not the building, it's the people and spiritually everyone, you know, makeup or part of the body of Christ, every true believer, everyone who has received Christ is becomes, is placed, is becomes the body of Christ. So this is what we see. Okay. The other thing is that that Christ is the head of the church. There's no one else. No, he might put others who might be shepherds in the church, but ultimately Christ is the head of the church, but they might be delegated leaders, right, apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, but ultimately Christ is the head of the church. Okay. And the church is something that belongs to Christ because it is his body, which is, which is him, right, which is part of him belongs to him. The church is Christ's body. Okay. So this is what we see in chapter one. Let's move on to chapter two. Okay. So we see that over and over again, you know, Paul talks about who you and I have become because of who we are in Christ. He talks about that over and over again. It gives more and more revelation, more and more understanding to who we have become, what we have received. Okay. So that's why in chapter one also you see, you know, you are blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. You know, that you, he chose you in him before the foundations of the earth and so on, right. In him, you have redemption that you've been redeemed, you've been bought out, right. And in that prayer, we see, you know, what God's will is for every believer, for the believer to know the, know Christ, right. The, for the believer to, to receive the Holy Spirit and know what is the, you know, what is the inheritance, the riches of the glory of the inheritance in the saints, to know that and also to know the greatness of God's power. Because sometimes people might say, okay, that is for someone else, or I'm not comfortable with that, et cetera, right. But here we see that God's will, God's desire, his wish is that the believer after having received the Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee, right, for the redemption that's going to happen, this is God's desire that we may know him in all these ways, right, which includes the greatness of his power, which is the greatness of his resurrection power that we may know him, that we may experience him firsthand in all these ways, right. Okay, let's read chapter two, okay, chapter two, maybe we can read the first 10 verses, right. And you, he made a life who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the cause of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and whereby nature, children of wrath, just as the others. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ, by grace you have been saved, and raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come, he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness towards us in Christ Jesus, for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast, for we are his workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. So another amazing revelation of what has happened to us. So what does he say? Verse 1, you he made alive.   He uses two words trespasses, which means to, which is a deviation from the truth, right, a misdeed, an action. And of course he uses the words sin, which is, which is missing the mark, right, missing the mark to, to fall short of God's law, and something offensive, an action that is offensive to God. So, so what is the, so what is he saying that you were actually dead, you were lifeless, in trespasses and sins, right? You were deviating from the truth, and you are missing the mark, and you were dead in it, right? You were lifeless in it, you did not have life, okay. But the first part of that verse says that you he made alive.  Because the man is alive, physically. But though being alive physically, the person is lifeless with regard to his spirit, because the person is dead in trespasses and sins, it's not alive, or not responding to the things of God, but to the things of the flesh, right, or sins. So he's saying you, he made alive, he quickened, he did something to your spirit, because you were dead in trespasses, okay. So he's saying trespasses and sins, in which you once walked, okay, you once walked according to the course of this world, okay. So you walked in trespasses, which means this is how you lived. You made choices, you had a lifestyle, which was sinful, which was not according to truth, which was missing the mark, falling short of God standards, you once walked like that, you know, day in and day out, you lived like that, according to the course of this world, you know, according to, if you were to say that there was a pathway that the world, generally, you know, people in the world were taking, that is what you were taking to, that is the route that you were taking, right. The course of this world, part of this world, the whatever the world was doing, whatever the world was indulging in, that is what you were doing, right, according to the course of this world. Now, according to the prince of the power of the air, so that is another thing, according to the course of this world, in a sense, okay, whatever the things were worldly, whatever the people of the world were doing, that is what you were also doing, that is how you were living. And it was also according to the prince of the power of the air, you know, referring to Satan, referring to the, and, you know, the powers of darkness, and primarily referring to the devil, referring to Satan, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience. Now, this spirit is at work, either influencing, either possessing, either demonizing, to whatever degree, right. But it's at work in the sons of disobedience, it means that people who do not know Christ, people who are rejected Christ, now the spirit of this spirit, which is Satan, the prince of the power of the air is at work, he works in them, he influences them, he ensnares them, traps them, all that, right, whatever Satan does, stealing, killing, destroying, trapping, accusing, tempting, all that, you know, who now works in the sons of disobedience. And verse three, among whom we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh, and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the other. So he's reminding them, you know, we were dead, but now we have actually been made alive, right.  According to the course of this world, according to the worldly ways you once walked, according to the power, according to the prince of the power of the air, according to, you know, what Satan would want us to do, you were doing it. And who works in the sons of disobedience, which means that okay, we were once children of disobedience, so he was working in us, and we were living according to his leading, right.   And how was it, he says that according to the lust of our flesh, we conducted ourselves in the lust of our flesh, which means whatever the fleshly appetites were, whatever the fleshly pull was, desires were, desire was, we lived according to that, okay. And also fulfilling, we, you know, this, this lust was actually, you know, this was pulling us to fulfill the desires of the flesh and of the mind, right, the fleshly appetites, bodily appetites, and of the mind, which was obviously unrenewed to the truth of God. So we were pulled to do that. And we lived according to that, according to that pull, according to that desire, right. And he also describes how were we, we were by nature, children of wrath, just as the other. So he's talking about, you know, our nature itself was unrighteousness. Like spiritually, we were dead. And our spirit was not born again. Now it was, it was dead. It was lifeless. And it was dead in trespasses and sins, like fully into sin, into trespasses. And my spirit, our spirit was not born again. And so he's saying by nature, inherent quality, inherent ability to live was as children of wrath. We were not children of righteousness, children of wrath, you know. I think we see this in John chapter one, right, John chapter one says, but as many, John chapter one and verse 12, and as many as received him, to them, he gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in his name. So here he's talking about children of God. And here Paul mentions in verse three, children of wrath. Now, if you go further down, or maybe we need to, let me just go to among us and we have received. Okay. Let me just get that verse. I think it's John three then. Yeah. Sorry, John three, verse 18, right, John three verse 16, 16 talks about, 16 talks about, you know, what was 16 is the God's love of the world. Verse 17 says that God did not send the Son to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. And verse 18, we see that he who believes in him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already because he is not believed in the Son of the, so in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Okay. So saying that they have not believed that they are condemned already. So he's describing the position, describing the condition of the children of wrath. People who are condemned already. And by nature, which means that internally, by nature, our spirit was sinful. There was nothing done to change it. So by nature, our inherent quality was to live according to the flesh, live according to the desires of the mind and to conduct ourselves in trespasses and sins. So this was a condition. Okay. Our nature was corrupt. Okay. Verse four, but God who is rich in mercy, okay. God was rich in mercy because of his great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ. So even when we were dead in trespasses, the Lord Jesus died on the cross, right? He died. He was buried. He rose again. And he died on the cross and he died. One died that all might be represented in that one death, you know, the entire world. So we see that he died for all as a substitute. Right. So here verse four says that God is rich in mercy because of his great love with which he loved us. Even when we were dead in trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ. And how did this happen? This happened on the cross. And he died when he was nailed to the cross. We were nailed to the cross when he was buried. We were buried when he rose again. We rose again. So that is why, you know, we can say that we were made alive in Christ, made us alive together with Christ. But this reality becomes this, this whatever Christ did becomes a reality in our lives when we receive by faith. Right. Because it says by grace you have been saved. The last part of verse five by grace you have been saved, which means that it's something that you did not merit, something that you did not deserve. Right. But he made it possible. He made it possible. He even though we were not deserving, we were undeserving, he made it possible. So that is why it is by grace that you have been saved. Okay. So what happened? Verse six says, he raised us up together, made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. So when Christ rose, you know, we were raised up to, we were raised along with him when he took his place in the heavenlies. And he made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. So spiritually, this is our position. We are with him. Verse seven, that in the ages to come, he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness towards us in Christ Jesus. Okay. So we'll take a break now. Okay. And then we will get back.


We're on, man. We're on. Yeah! Hello, everybody, and welcome to Hacker Tools. Let's start off by introducing all the instructors. So my name is Nish. I'm John. And I'm Jose. So we'll start off with a brief introduction about the course and then dive into the content. So the course website is at hacker-tools.thecal.io. There's a bunch of useful content there, so make sure you have that. Now, as the website says, this class is about hacker tools and not hacker tools if you go to the course overview page. There's some useful links there. Hacker tools, not hacker tools. So what exactly do I mean by this? Well, unfortunately the word hacker has two kind of common definitions. One definition is like a program where somebody's really asked about making the most of their software and writing cool programs, making computers do interesting things. That's the definition of hacker that originated at MIT. If you click on that first link there, it'll take you to a Wikipedia page that'll tell you a little bit more about the history of the term. And if you're curious at all, I recommend reading that. History of MIT, so it's kind of cool. The other type of hacker is the security hacker, someone who breaks into networks or reverse engineer software or things like that. So this class is about the first type of hacker, not the second type of hacker. And to avoid any ambiguity, we'll use hacker to describe a programmer and cracker to describe somebody who does security things. Okay, so hopefully all of you are here to learn about programming and programming tools and not about very specific security related things. Although we will cover a little bit of that too. Much less so than the other part. Yeah, security is covered in the last half of the last lecture, so not the focus of this class. And yeah, so just to tell you a little bit more about the motivation behind this class, I saw myself tea at a bunch of classes here before, and one thing we've noticed is that MIT classes do a great job of teaching you computer science theory. They do a great job of teaching you even how to code. They get to write a lot of programs for a lot of the classes you take here. But one thing the classes don't do is they don't teach you how to make the most of the tools you need in order to program efficiently or debug your code efficiently or things like that. We just thought of something that's missing from the curriculum here. And in our own personal experiences, we've found that it's super beneficial to be proficient at these tools. Any time you invest in becoming better at these tools will pay off even during the course of your undergrad or probably just in the next couple of months. And so yeah, that's why we're teaching this class. We're going to teach you about new tools. We're going to teach you about how to make the most of your tools. We'll tell you how to customize your tools to your workflow and how to extend your tools with plugins or even modify your tools yourself. Just a little bit of administrative here about the class structure. So we're going to have six lectures. There's a lecture schedule, subject to change. Also if anybody has strong opinions about specific things you want to learn, feel free to let us know and we are happy to add more content to our course. And then we will structure classes. We have two hour-long blocks. They'll be split into two 50-minute lectures with a 10-minute break in between. So pretty standard thing right there. And if lectures go short, we'll stick around afterwards and kind of have office hours where we can walk around and help you guys get set up with tools and things like that. Unfortunately, two hours times six classes is not really enough to teach you about all the tools we want to teach you. So this class is almost more about showing you what kind of things are possible to inspire you to learn more about this tool. And we'll try to show you a bunch of cool things and give you resources so you can learn more about this stuff on your own. And for all the different modules, we're also going to have exercises for you to go through. So if you look at the virtual machines and containers we'll go from today, for example. We've listed some exercises for you to do related to virtual machines and listed down some exercises for you to do related to containers. So if you want to get anything out of this course you really should go through those exercises. And even beyond that, just take this IAP to experiment with your tools, play with your tools, try out different things. So you want to become really good at an editor and maybe try playing around with Emacs and Moon and stuff like that. We'll give you all the resources to learn this stuff but you need to put in time to really become proficient with these tools. An extension of that too is that we have used many of these tools for a very long time and there are often things that we are just in our fingers and we don't really think of telling you about how they work or something that you might find weird. So if you have questions along the way that's all of what this course is really about is like figuring out how to make the most of your tools and that includes asking questions like is there a better way for me to do this thing that I do normally? So if there's anything we tell you where you don't understand how it works or why we do it this way or you see us in setting up the projector or something like types on command that you don't understand what did ask us and we can explain this is how you get better at your own tools is by discovering that as you go what other people do. One last I know about the overview and then we can jump into the content. So we've set up a piazza for this course there's a link on the class website both on the homepage and in the notes for this overview and we're going to try something interesting we're going to ask that after each lecture as you play around with the exercises and you kind of experiment with these tools on your own we ask that if you discover anything interesting or if you have any prior knowledge about these tools that you'd like to share with the class post a note on piazza so like we'd really love if each of you posted one note per lecture on piazza about something you've learned or something you already knew and this way we can all learn from each other these are really sophisticated tools we're going to learn how to use and even in lab as we were working on stuff I'm looking at John's screen as he's working on something for code or something like that and John does something that I didn't know before like oh I can learn something from him and this even applies to if you find a good learning resource for some of the things we try to teach you like who's the link so other people can see because that way they might also learn from the thing that you saw and one last thing we have this registration form that will take like 10 seconds to fill out so if you haven't done that yet please fill it out just give us a chance to know what topics you're excited to learn about anything else for overview? no I think that's it well any questions so far? is there anything in particular that is not on the schedule that you wish you could learn stuff about? specifically the things that we're planning on covering I'll read it out loud virtual machines and containers shell and scripting command line environments data wrangling editors version control doc files and backups machine introspection and program introspection package management and dependency management OS customization OS automation web and browsers and security and privacy is there anything that does not seem like it's covered by those categories that you are super curious about and want to hear more about? because if so speak up and we can maybe do something about it it's also okay if you don't like these are the things we thought of so these are the things we think are interesting but there could totally be other things for your life that's something I wish I would do alright let's dive into it


Here is outfit one. This is for those very few days of winter where it's somewhat warmer, the sun is out, it's not very wet. So starting off, let's talk about the amalgam of colors. Olive and orange is a beautiful combination. It's why this bomber jacket is so popular in those colors and also why the shattered backboards look great with olive cargos. But another great combo is maroon and olive and that's because they are complementary colors. Red and green are complementary but olive and maroon are those same colors just at a different shade. To be more technical, these colors have black added to its color making it a lot more muted and darker. So that's a little color theory for you. Anyways, the bomber jacket comes from Essentials. You can get yours anywhere. I'd recommend Alpha Industries if you have the funds but this one from Essentials is pretty nice. Most bombers are crop cuts so any shirts you wear are going to be reverse layered giving you know the 2015 vibes again but I'ma just roll with it. Beanie is from Amazon, it's my go-to place and I have on a respect women's shirt. Shout out to my boy Christian. I love this shirt because of the wash. It's very faded making it kind of like an ash slate gray with its own overwash pattern. It looks pretty dope. I just think this tea is the perfect breakup in the fits without being too contrasty.  It's a little bit darker and it isn't too harsh. Then the pants are Nike tech fleece joggers. I love these for how they are cut. I'm a size medium by the way for those of you asking. So with these sweats the thigh area is cut to be a lot more relaxed fitting like normal sweats but it starts taping off really nicely at the knee area to your ankles. Which gives it a unique silhouette and makes these my favorite sweats to work out in to lounge in or to wear with outfits. And these lead to the Niger twos a pretty nice skate sneaker only. Only if you have narrow feet. These are made for Niger obviously and he must have really narrow feet because skating in these hurts my feet even though they skate pretty well. But anyways I love these for how they look get these kicks to freshen up your creativity of your fits. I'm not saying this is the only secret that I'm making more creative but they're just way more versatile than you think and I gravitate towards them a lot whenever I'm walking an outfit. And then I've got on my go to accessories the Casio watch a metal cuff and some rings. Overall a basic fits nothing too crazy but I'm letting the tones colors and cuts of the clothing speak for themselves. Which is kind of my style anyways I don't like to go too crazy. Second outfit that you guys could easily pull off is a cozy fit starting from the kicks I have on the Nike blazers. Now Nike actually sent these to me as I'm working with them on a video. Thank you guys so much for that by the way much appreciated blazers are an underrated sneaker that's also not underrated. I have a whole video on how to style these if you guys are interested I'll leave a link in the description. This has the celestial blue swoosh which I think is a nice touch. I have on the essentials cargo pants as I wanted the fit to be simple but have a nice bit of detail with the cargo pockets. The top is a brown uniclo pocket long sleeve. It's mainly just there for a pop of color and the jacket is a uniclo fleece jacket. So I've wanted the uniclo collaboration with engineer garments fleece jacket for a while now but it's just way too overpriced. This has somewhat of a similar look with the fleece mixed with nylon details. It's subtle and makes this fleece jacket a lot more wearable to let's say a plain fleece one. So with this one specifically you can tell it's cozy but also somewhat sporty because of the nylon details. Then of course to compliment that blue swoosh I threw on a mustard beanie. This is an outfit for your standard winter day. I stay cozy and warm and it's a fresh easy to put together outfit. And last but not least is for when bricks are dropped every second. It's cold out here you need something hella warm because it's windy it's chilly and you can't really feel your hands. So I have on the Nike SFB field two eight inch boots. This is the Gore-Tex version. If you haven't gotten into boots yet out of intimidation or you just would rather spend your boot money on sneakers trust me on this you should pick this one up. It's by Nike so you're gonna have that brand association with them. It's more functional because it's waterproof so it's very rugged you can go hiking in these wash it off with water and they're still gonna go with plenty of outfit and so with these you're gonna develop a new appreciation for boots in general. The pants are from 511 tactical these are the apex cargoes I've talked about these a ton. Easy budget tech wear cargo pants or great cargo pants in general for normal street fits with boots I really like the wider pants than a clear cut transition to just the boot instead of something gradual it gives your fit a bit more substance instead of everything blending in together think of it like a lightsaber sure you could have just a smooth hilt something like a flashlight or you could have a hilt with grooves textures protruding grips and it's just nicer to look at then I have a simple shirt as the underlayer piece of my jacket which comes from triple fat goose. Now I know the brand name is kind of weird but the fat part stands for four arctic temperatures so you know these jackets are really warm so this one was sent over to me last year thank you guys over there at triple fat goose this jacket is waterproof and windproof as well which means this whole entire fit is waterproof you're you just never know when it'll rain especially when you live in a big city like me and you don't have a car you're gonna have to do a lot of walking and an unexpected rainstorm is never fun anyways this park of jacket is warm the definition of cozy and for it being this warm it's not even that heavy it's pretty lightweight and weighs just over three pounds pockets are fleece lined for extra warmth when putting your hands in there and all zipper pockets have waterproof enclosures it's got an inner pocket where I keep my face mask a chest pocket and thumb holes to keep your hands a bit warmer and overall the jacket is just simple functional and has some length to it's giving your fits more visual flair than a standard jacket that hems at the waistline definitely perfect for New York winters if you're in Canada you're probably gonna need something a little warmer then I topped it off with an olive cap from amazon really been digging this hat lately since my black one lost its shape after I sat on it I'll leave links to everything in the description down below where you guys can pick any of these items up and completing this fits I felt like jewelry was needed so I threw on this necklace from rose golden black the sponsor of today's video who I will now take a second to think so rose golden black is the best place to start if you don't really have experience with jewelry and accessories and all that I always like to recommend them because they do always have something for everyone all from simple beaded bracelets to sterling silver Cuban links personally I really dig all their minimal designs this one right here is their sterling silver odyssey necklace it's simple with a sleek and clean design so it makes it very versatile I can rock it with pretty much any fit and it's going to really elevate it to completion now you don't have to get this pricey one there is an alternative it looks pretty much the same it's just made out of stainless steel and it's gonna be a lot cheaper and I definitely recommend this if you're just starting off with necklaces and of course their minimal bar necklaces like I have on right now so go ahead and click the link in the description check out rose golden black I think they really shine with necklaces so that link is going to take you guys to my special landing page where everything's going to be heavily discounted currently right now it's going to be up to 25% off because of the holiday deals and also if you enter the code vibe 15 you're going to get an additional 15% off so if you guys have been on the fence with picking some of these items up now is definitely the time because it's holidays man treat yourself treat your partner treat your brother just go and check out rose golden black I appreciate you guys for the support and I appreciate rose golden black for sponsoring this video so guys what was your favorite outfit leave a comment down below go ahead and follow me on instagram at flywithjohnnytai and leave a thumbs up if you enjoyed the video and subscribe
