Those are super I think I have I think I have seen them. I don't think I've seen any in the wild.  Yeah, they'll still retain value at the national last summer I remember something across an old customer actually used to shop with us frequently at jaspy's That was selling stuff. He recognized me by the sound of my voice like joe. They're like, yeah So and so and I was like I'm blanking on his name right now.  He also had some vintage star wars cards on him Like ps8 eights or nines or something like that there were that he was still selling for like Anywhere from 10 to 20 thousand dollars crazy Yeah, some star wars stuff is is pretty nice. There are some fun insert sets that are around from over the years That are really cool, too there's one star wars set that had That had sort of like a five or six card set That was like sort of reminiscent of like world war two propaganda type stuff There's nathan codrey crystals And I thought that was pretty cool and I probably try to collect those Here's a rookie ice crystals. I think there's a lot of these ice crystals. I think we'll just handle the We'll just sleeve up the rookie ones That'll go to Ottawa. That's going to be for brian. We'll make a little card stack over there Brock vesser Got an acetate to 299 simon holstrom For eric and the new york islanders And we got an autograph.

This is the way. Yeah Mandalorian a lot of fun. I mean whenever those seasons happen I remember the first season was I think like a It was a I mean, I don't think it's hyperbole to say that it was a cultural phenomenon I remember every wednesday night The jaspies crew we would all Finish our evenings and rush home And then we'd all text each other and be like all right You guys ready to watch And we would watch Text each other throughout Baby Yoda mind blowing I think they're doing a movie now too, right? I think they're going to do a movie I don't know when that's going to happen when that's going to drop, but I think I remember I think they're going to do the movie where it's should tie up a lot of the loose ends for all of the Dave Filoni um Kind of era star wars put a nice bow on that Is the idea Which marner die cut you've got a 004 out of 299 Cole Reinhart Ottawa that'll be for brian a jordan spence autograph for my kings Doesn't appear to be numbered, but this is going to go to Kevin yeah, chilo remembers us talking about Um, nine now you know now you know the now you know the vibe, you know, I've I've only seen one episode of game of thrones And that was an episode At like uh My friends were really into it. I I don't do well with with tv series Except unless it's like star wars, but I don't do well with tv series because a lot of times I don't know if it's ever gonna end You know and I I'd like more of a More of a well thought out I guess they're based on books. I guess there would have would have been an end It's on episode a lot of people died A lot of people died like a wedding or something like that And that's the only episode I've seen because it's like sunday night And all my friends are gathering together and it's like we're not gonna we're gonna watch this television show We're not gonna go out and do anything and they're like no we're watching this So you can either join us there or do something else Said fine. I'll join you guys That's the only episode I've seen Here's frozen a nice clayton keller That's for dylan and the coyotes I feel like I feel like lore of the rings content Uh, it kind of fills that sort of space for me You know there's dylan gunther sub zero to 599 And that is also for arizona, right? Yeah coyotes Dillon Oh, that would happen The tv series basically ran out of material on point because they caught up with the books Yeah, come on j rr Tolkien RLL George C. Martin George Martin Or whoever the author is I mean, I think lore of the rings fills that sort of fantasy world space for me in that that kind of genre So I did enjoy the amazon rings of power. I thought that was quite a good friend of mine. She did the I think she did the the Like the the the season series posters for the first few seasons of game of thrones, I want to say Yeah, the lore of the rings movies are pretty long if you start watching like directors cuts and stuff like that too They get to be They get to be pretty long. I remember When the third one came out There's john luke fowdy to 1299 For the abs that'll be for brian k colorado Uh, we we my friends did a uh did a marathon. We watched the first two Before we watched the uh the third one in the theaters There's paunce's holmberg rookie ice crystals for the maple leaves Oliver with toronto and an autograph that's going to be glacial graphs fabian zederland That's why these blank cards can be helpful Nice for new jersey. That'll be for kevin and the devils But yeah, I mean that that watching the first two directors cuts took us All day Where's that probably close to four hours of movie or something like that It's pretty exhausting by the end of the uh by the end of the evening out of 1299 We got james hamlin for the oilers Uh dylan with edmonton We got jack quinn sub zero to 999 Buffalo ed with the savers And we got carter heart frozen in ice I think you could I think these are rip cards you can pop these open if you want to I guess it could be something special inside That's seemed like an awful lot of blanks for Just one thicker card a box, right? You and your friends did that with harry potter watched all the movies over two days Nice did you get a What else did you do did you you should have gotten like harry potter themed food? I don't know what that would be Butterbeers how much how much butter beers were consumed over those two days? Well, it's usually those blanks duncan are generally to To uh Was it so there's like one of those exquisite cards per box right those thicker cards or the frozen and ice cards One or the other It's so that people don't know where they are That's what it is So they'll pretty much put one in every box That way if let's say we were selling these packs individually in the shop, which we do You know so those blanks help so people don't just grab the one that's the thick one because they know that's where the hit is this too I guess in this sense it wouldn't really be blanks. There's one right there They would be uh decoys really Be the more appropriate word for it We oh you ate the uh every ate the harry potter jelly beans the every flavor beans Yeah over the holidays, uh over the winter holiday During christmas time whenever my sister and I were home. We just we just put harry potter on the background at the end of the evening we just Drink some booze and Watch some harry potter There's another frozen and ice for the canadiens It's nixizuki That will be for ryan Uh Jilo and other harry potter fans Uh I don't know how this kind of fell under our radar. Maybe we don't talk as much harry potter as I think we do Here's 926 at 999 sub zero. That's michael uh esamon For winnipeg ryan p max is doing a harry potter television show television series What does everyone think about that? I'm usually not one for the remake But it's not a movie. They're remaking to a television series, which I think is a little more acceptable And I think they're going to be more More novel more book faithful That's uh for the bluejacket that's david jerick columbus at dyke at going to oliver Then we got 12 out of 1299 ollie like cell for the flyers. That's going to go to kevin Wait, sorry what? No, no, no the the like philosopher stone chamber secrets. They're redoing the series their books And we got an exquisite autograph matt boldie for the wild 98 out of 99 Let's just put this in a slider box I'm pretty sure they're redoing the whole Yeah But more book faith because you know, obviously the movies can only do so much Right, so they've edited a lot of things and they've also I realized that, you know, if you read the books, there are some characters that are that have far more influence Trying to think of a good example In the movies remember, uh gobbled of fire In the movie, it's nevel that gives harry the gilly weed put in his mouth, right to create the gills to do the swimming challenge Um There's the 1299 but in the books. It's actually dobby the house elf That that finds the gilly weed he dobby actually helps a lot throughout this series which makes his death more impactful spoiler alert But the movies they don't really have them do that much So which makes the death is not as if that could have been more impactful. It wasn't impactful like this The movies did a pretty good job, but you know, obviously you only have so much time Yeah, I guess lord of the rings probably would be better that way, but Lord of the rings is is is different I think a I think peter jackson did a great job Not everyone's going to be happy, but there's a lot of filler material in lord of the rings Um, obviously the you know books are going to be different and it works for the novels But I don't think it would have worked for the movies. I think there's a lot more Uh sam internal dialogue sam samwise gamgee internal dialogue that you probably Didn't really need in a movie uh and I think in fellowship if you read fellowship, there's a whole extra dude That froto and the gang run into That sings a lot of songs I think using the animated series the old 1970s cartoon, but Yeah, they drop that part. It's a good chunk of fellowship, too It's a big chapter you drop that guy Yeah, I think harry potter does have some broad appeal at this point, too So and more more book faithful and probably since it's on max maybe a little more I don't know how race you can get with with children, but but I think maybe Maybe they could ramp up the violence a little bit And I I guess I guess when they're like teenagers or when they're 16 or 17 you can you can imply a little more uh I don't know if it's gonna be like euphoria or anything like that, but I think you get the idea I think jk is executive producing it, but I don't know if she has she'll have a role in writing It but I mean she's done the writing already the books are there The primaries forces are there Cool cuts. Oh, yeah, it'd be cool to see All right gen z lingo and harry potter right Yeah, maybe in the scenes out out where they're in in muggle world They'll probably be more gen z stuff there, too So casting will be very interesting as well There's nathan smith piece of the jersey For the coyotes that's going to be for dylan an often massive Austin matthews wasn't gonna say moston athus Out of 599. There's nick pervix That's the name of uh, that's the name of a new hip indie band That also like hockey Moston athus. Hey, have you heard that new moston athus? It's kale mccar sub zero I thought these were numbered I guess this one's not And I saved this exquisite card for last and it is exquisite lucas dostel rookie for the ducks Yeah, I think they're the details of this harry potter series on max has been details have been scant I don't think they've even hired Like the official writers for the show yet. They announced it last year too. I think they announced it last spring Kind of to I mean it just flew under the radar for me, but I I I don't think they even have directors Lined up. I don't think they have a timeline lined up They don't even have they don't have writers lined up. I think they're like talking to writers and Like auditioning writers seeing seeing how they would Take it take the series, you know I'll make you if you want to go through if you want to go to Go to uk Gen Z slang Yeah, it's all grime lingo, which is I guess is what you would consider rap in uh in uh in the uk garage, I think that was more of a two-step scene, but Kind of an offshoot of Of the two-step house scene Garage as I call it garage Yeah, but no word whether the writers would even be Oh, we don't use the m word here Duncan. Come on now. Um My father would heal about this So no word on whether uh, the writers will be english or american. Hopefully it'll be more of an english vibe That would be a little more authentic. Hopefully they'll call it philosopher stone instead of sorcerer stone Which is the original English title There has been some spec that, you know casting is going to be interesting What are they going to cast because I think in everyone's head, you know Ron Hermione and harry look a certain way. So there there has to be some big choices there But there has been some speculation on a There has been some speculation on the social medias that uh The guy who played uh Draco Would play his father in this tv series lucis Because he'd be of I guess of that age, I think At that point Little b my father would heal about this Me to my father his about this But did you hear this they're doing a harry potter tv series. Yeah, I heard about that for me too. Yeah I just don't know uh, I think it's supposed to be uh A real actor right just those tv shows though, right? Yeah, it's going to be closer to the books. Yeah. Yeah, because the movies it skip over a lot of stuff 64 out of 99. There's thomas, uh Bordelot for san jose Eric Jennings Right if you think about it.  We're about 36 minutes in We've got one two three four five boxes left. We've got about another 30 minutes to go But yeah, I think that that tv series should be pretty interesting Obviously, well, that's harry potter talk you can tell that I I don't have a lot to say about hockey. I've been watching hockey a lot. I think kings are having a rough stretch um subtlety is rex is Not rex's strong suit As I mentioned before if they were doing remakes of a movie I'd say we probably don't need more harry potter But if they're making book a book faithful tv series on max which is uh This would make it a little bit more gritty Not like the philadelphia flyers mascot. And yes, we do need more harry potter Yeah, you would think they would try to get some of those Those actors somehow involved, right? I mean, would it be too distracting to see like daniel radcliffe or emma watson reprising? Oh, just have to be james? That's true. Actually. Yeah. Well, that's what they said They're gonna have drako play lucius in the show Yeah, I think we do need more harry potter I feel like harry potter has not been oversaturated like uh like star although I don't mind having more star wars To 599. There's uh kaden ghoul Fantastic beast is not too bad jk actually wrote the the actual screenplays for those Star Trek's better than harry potter. All right rex rex is gonna die on that hill That's obviously not true First you start off with harry potter being one of them Classic children's novel one of the most successful franchises of all time Both critically and financially I don't know how many Star Trek novels have uh have gained critical acclaim It's 1299. We've got uh Kaden and corzac for the golden knights It'll be from matthew My father was here about this And there's a nice exquisite auto 26 out of 99 arbor Uh zekage for the canadiens. Is he good? Ryan with the canadiens Wow now now rex is just rex is just spraying bullets like uh You know like some sort of street thug Just spraying bullets into the street star trek is better in the cancy royals G low catching strays There's matril That's for ryan rex is rex is just unhinged now There's kaden ghoul again rookie ice crystals die cut Yeah, the new some of the new star trek movies were pretty good though I actually watched it. Those are pretty entertaining No, you started it rex With the do you need more harry potter? original star trek series bad deep space nine was i don't even sure No one no one really spends time breaking down those series except for the The the deepest and darkest unwashed corners of the internet. We'll talk about that Although all it takes is one tiktok influencer to suddenly make star trek cool Unlikely though Someone someone quick go to tiktok and search star trek. What what comes up? You know if you want to count it's at at rex guys will be the account And it'll just be like five reasons why star trek is better than harry potter Number five It's smart. It's based off science You know number four The acting, you know something something like that. It'll just be something silly We got chase piercent 219 out of 349 It's another exquisite rookie card Cut a little bit thick as you know the spider box Oh, that's good jill. Yeah, his username would be would be star rex at star rex This is your boy at star rex here on tiktok five reasons why star trek is better than harry potter Number five. It's based on science number four Watch i'm gonna get cancelled by the star trek community. Uh, that's for the minnesota. Wow. That's john lazat Any relation to blake It's quentin bifield. We've got another acetate 299.  That's braden schneider. That's going to go to the new york rangers eric j And we got a tomas bordelou san osa Sharks that's going to be eric jennings.  Is that how you're basing the quality of a uh science fiction program? That's really a poor poor measurement on science fiction That's not the point of science fiction third to last box. We're almost there We got to 299 braden pashal for vegas star trek is based what 300 plus years in the future cool Cool story bro. No one cares about a star trek. I mean people do but we don't Not around here columbus.  Yeah, exactly You know What are what? If you're into serial killer stuff Uh, I want to say that what is it? torturing small animals peeing the bed until later in life Right past being a toddler starting fires, I think I think those are those are some of the common denominators of a lot of uh A lot of our a lot of america's serial killers Is that right emperor Palpatine's gonna be at the KC comic-con? Do it Order 66 Ultimate powers We've got a braiding point Flipped upside down. I don't know. Does that mean something? We've got an acetate to 599 no accates Flyers that'll be for kevin Rookie cool cuts jonathan burgren For the red wings that's gonna be for eric and detroit Got a rookie die cut right here. That's andre kuzmenko That's for a vancouver semenk Got a isaac rat cliff relic Philadelphia that's gonna be for kevin To 1299 that's keith putrizelli for toronto that'll be for oliver Thanks, shack shack says lakers come come back eat the clippers All right 12th and final box Uh, you should Gilo Because there was a funny thing that happened I'm trying not trying to say it in a way that's not going to spoil it Like I guess if you skipped it something happens in three Where you're kind of like if you had skipped it people would have been like wait That's this never gets explained But it does In book above boba fit boba fit boba fit Han han han solo han sol Boba I could go for some boba right now some good boba shots around here. Oh nice Now those episodes are shot well Um Have you heard of uh, how they're shooting these? The series gilo This is all ready. I don't think I've ever seen this in my entire life Where something's already penny sleeved. It's kind of in its own. Oh, yeah, isn't that weird? Is it special? He's a popular player.  Thanks Kevin You haven't so Traditionally you're making that sort of stuff. So these are not numbered. There's chain, right? Um, you know, it's typical like green screen stuff, right? Oh, you have Rex has seen that before I have not I've not done enough for today This is for the Kraken that'll be for Seattle. Um They still use some green screen elements, but but it's a huge 360 It's like the Madison Square Garden Sphere The thing the the way they shoot it's this big 360 screen or almost 360 might even be 360 Definitely 180, but it's just a huge video wall that's like you know 10k or whatever you want to call resolution All right, so they can then they could you could just shoot with a real camera And then you could sit there in the environment that's already, you know, then then there's like actual Physical props that are still around but this giant video screen. They'll be like, oh, here is the tattooing desert behind you You know, so now the actors can like, you know, look at different Different points out there and you get a more visceral reaction Yeah, I think there's there's there's a there's a couple Disney plus has a couple features Uh related to like after series after mando one, I think Here's frozen in ice That's urage Sevkowski for Montreal So they built this thing You know, because they're they were like, how do we shoot this? How do we not just do the plain old green screen? You don't get good reactions from From the from the actors. They don't know what to act to You know, it doesn't feel as immersive and blah blah blah Or you end up spending a lot of money going to physical locations, right? you know So they they developed this thing specifically for that show and now I think other Other star wars shows have started to use and I think other Other Disney properties may may use that studio for it's For other original content at some point as well, I think There's john lazat 1299 So I thought that was kind of a cool Cool innovation and then since it's a big screen right there, you can still dress up the the middle parts with like You know with other props and Still use practical effects Along with a big background as well I think it saves money too because I don't think you have to go to a different like They can change that big video screen into like the like you're going through hyperspace So they can just change it for that and then you just wheel in the You know You just wheel in the Auto There's an exquisite auto only pull base. That's what I was like saying the second has to be good There's one exquisite auto in here. I want to do a recap in a second I'm glad we finally got it done. Nice a sub zero dillon hollow a autograph. I hope he's good. Is he good? Yeah, I haven't really kept it with his news Oilers that's gonna be dillon. I hope he's good dillon as long as people just take for years to That's true. Yeah, I forgot.

He was trying to like split the d And obviously he's like, all right Just check them on the face Which was legal another wrong.

We got a numbered Die cut the macar was pretty cool to 99 Yeah, if I'm a defender no way I'm letting this kid Split split defenders. Yeah, it's like welcome to the nhl moment. There's your exquisite autograph Yeah, it barely fits into like a 180 I think some of them are cut slightly thick enough where I have to put them into slider boxes, but There's another Exquisite auto matt bolder.

Dylate acid and hydrothermal pretreatments are two popular methods used to break down the complex structures of plant cell walls and increase accessibility of sugars for fermentation into bioethanol. These pretreatments have been shown to reduce the recalcitrant nature of biomass, making it easier to break down and convert into fuel.

The priority number one is to strengthen the framework conditions, to continue actually strengthening the framework conditions and here in particular in the areas of regulatory legal environments so this wants to be continued to be strengthened, access to capital for firms which remains very, very difficult for Latin America companies and competition, so the level of competition, the stronger level of competition will be valuable and will be beneficial for competitiveness and ICT. A'r ffordd o'r angen yw ymdodd ac yn hi wneud ymdau'r maen i Llanfyniaeth yma, ac yn ymdodd y wneud ymdyn nhw yn ymgyrchol i'r gael.

First of all, the efficiency of the existing investment is fairly low, and our recommendation in this respect is to strengthen the effectiveness of current policies and current investments by simply strengthening the capacity within the governments to evaluate policies, to evaluate ex-under and exposed in order to be able to target them better and to increase the institutional capacity within the government to be able to do this type of work because the investments and the policies would be much more efficient. The second recommendation in order to enhance the efficiency is to better align the investments to economic and social priorities. What we have seen is that some of the investments are not well aligned, in particular when we look at championing value chains, the selection is not always very transparent, and a system of better aligning the investments to those priorities would enable those investments to have an even higher impact. In addition to better channeling or better using existing investment, there's a need to increase the level of private investment in those type of programs. So in particular in skills and innovation development, and here one measure would be, for example, to help SMEs harness better existing capital. Innovative SMEs have very, very hard time in America to access capital, and the government could do a lot more to help them harness capital. One of other possibilities would be also suggestions would be to include venture capital components into collaboration, public-private collaborations, for example. Overall public-private collaboration has been an important topic and an important part of the recommendations as well. So this is our fourth priority area to strengthen public-private collaborations in the region. And in the first place, you know, this is related to the level of trust between the two sectors as well, which can continue to be built, to be increased. First of all, and there are three recommendations with respect to building stronger public-private collaborations. They are very, very concrete and very much focus on innovation and skills. First of all, to create a standardized catalogue of research competencies, so that these are mainly public institutions, so that the private sector can indeed access more easily this information and identify the opportunities that are produced by the public sector through the research capacity that's existing. This could be then complemented also by research and skills development funding schemes in order to make it even more impactful, and such schemes could be integrated into the catalogue, so that the commercialization time is much shorter and that the private sector can commercialize the breakthrough ideas much, much faster. Then there is also a need, and there is a very strong public-private component in this area, to have a stronger focus on cross-sectoral vocational education. Vocational education is actually well regarded, fairly well regarded. There's a good performance of vocational students in Latin America, but there's still a significant skills gap, so companies are not able to find the right resources in terms of vocational education, and here a very close collaboration in order to really adjust the skills to the needs of the business community would be beneficial. The fifth area of priority would be to foster inter-regional cooperation, and here two very concrete also suggestions are one is to establish a regional multi-annual research and innovation fund, so a longer-term research and innovation fund to allow also faster commercialization across the entire region of research projects, so this is one recommendation, and the second recommendation in this area is to simply establish an exchange program for students and for researchers in Latin America in order to increase the pool of researchers and also increase the allocation between the different countries. Then our last priority area, and this is more of a cross-cutting area, this more than how do we implement this recommendation, is really to employ a flexible implementation approach, so a flexible implementation approach meaning that we start rather small and then build those recommendations out increasingly in order to be able to adjust and to be really on target all the time, and also to give the opportunity especially at the regional level to other countries to opt in into the programs in order to keep it beneficial for the entire region. I'll stop here and give back to Oliver. Thank you, Margaret. Next speaker, John Levis, the Global Chief Innovation Officer and Regional Managing Director for the Americas region at Deloitte. John, you've been a project advisor on this initiative. Please share with us to date some of your key findings and the key recommendations that resonate for you and your firm. Sure, and first I want to thank the World Economic Forum and the Steering Board for allowing Deloitte to participate and sponsor this program. I think our involvement has been truly beneficial for us, and hopefully we've brought value to the process. The whole notion of competitiveness in Latin America is one of keen interest literally around the world, and we know that leaders want to move past just discussing the issue that exists there to real action, and we think this opportunity does, excuse me, this report provides us with exactly that opportunity, and the timing is absolutely right. Innovation is increasingly at the heart of what happens to grow businesses and to grow economies. Without it, economies just flatten out, and we see that in various locations around the world. So, being able to translate an understanding of the gaps that we've seen into tangible actions and recommendations I think is paramount here. Throughout the analysis I think we've found that one of the very important keys is the cooperation of the private and public sectors in these recommendations, both in the work to identify the issues as they've been done and then in implementing tangible steps to close those gaps. And all of the recommendations touch on that, but there's one in particular that I want to highlight that gets right at the core of it, and that is recommendation four, which calls for the increase of investment by the private sector into closing the skills and innovation gaps that exist in Latin America. And I think it's incumbent upon the private sector to do that for a couple of reasons. One, the opportunity is significant, and as a private sector motivated by the things that were motivated by, being able to encourage greater cooperation amongst public and private sector and to encourage institutions to make the right decisions around how to prioritise education, how to prioritise policies around infrastructure is absolutely necessary. Small to medium businesses, which need that innovation growth, need to come and be fuelled by what happens and the investments made by large organisations, and the economy sort of generates itself through that way. And we've seen that through our work in other parts of the world, in Australia and in Europe and increasingly in the things that Deloitte has been able to do in Latin America. And for one example about that is the work we've been doing with the social progress imperative. And in doing that, identifying exactly the right way to measure social progress, it's the social progress index, it was pioneered in a way to truly measure the growth in the society, not just in terms of financial terms, but how the growth in financial terms is benefitting society as a whole. And by creating national network of partners in Latin America, we've been able to help specifically in countries like Brazil the implementation of SPI and making that a way in which nations can measure their innovation, measure their progress in closing the gaps that we've talked about. And so just in conclusion from my side, I'm looking forward to this report, its publication. I think that it tackles exactly the right issues around skills gaps and education gaps as well as the infrastructure gaps around innovation and the recommendations I feel are extremely tangible, ones that can be actioned upon quickly with results that I think can be equally quick. Thank you, John. And I would just say that this report, the press release related to it is now available on our website, weforum.org, it's available in three languages, English, Portuguese and Spanish. Any media watching this live on our webcast platform can go to our website and download that release. Get some more information. Now I'm going to move right on to Diego Milano Vega, the Minister of Information Technologies and Communication of Colombia. Please, sir, give us some insights from the public sector. What resonance does this have and which of these recommendations do you think are particularly relevant and you will be able to act on in 2015? First of all, I'd like to thank the World Economic Forum for the report, it's been a great job. Unfortunately, it is not done yet, I mean, this is just one step, but it is a fantastic step that really is giving us some light on how to move in terms of increasing the competitiveness of Latin America. Look at Latin American economies have lived out of commodities for many, many years. We export oil, coal, copper, you know, kind of commodities, but that's not sustainable. We have to move to other areas. We have to transform our economies in more competitive economies and innovation is key to do that. And the report, you know, gives us two elements, two important elements. You have to innovate, that's key. And the government has to support that innovation. And a key element there, the private sector is the one that has to innovate. And the government should support that.  We are going in that direction, so President Santos said we have to transform our economy. We are going to invest in innovation. How? We are exporting a lot of commodities. 10% of all the money we get from those exports goes to innovation funds. So we are investing a lot of money in innovation. And we have to make sure that that innovation tackles not only basic research and development but also productivity in business, especially SMEs. But also the other issue of the report is key here, which is talent. Without people we can't do anything. So I'm really glad to see for the first time in Latin America a gap analysis on talent. What kind of talent we need to transform the competitiveness of Latin America is of great value, the results of this report, because now we can focus together the public and the private sector on creating that talent on transforming our education system, on improving our vocational education to make sure that we have the right manpower to increase productivity. And in order to do that there is one key element that we have to build, trust. Trust between the public and the private sector because these tasks have to be done by the two parts and also trust with the academia, trust with the universities. So there are three players, the public sector, the private sector and the universities and we have to build trust. Thank you. Last but not least, Alejandro Ramirez, chief executive officer of Sinopolis in Mexico, formerly a young global leader of the World Economic Forum. We just heard the minister say that it's the government's must support the private sector in innovation. Give us your take from the private sector. Thank you very much and I also want to commend the World Economic Forum and the team, including the Lloyds for what I think is a very deep and very pragmatic report. I think overall I like very much that it decided to focus on the skills and innovation gap because as we all know there are different pillars of productivity and the pillar that is the weakest in Latin America is precisely skills and innovation and I think we're generalising Latin America in many countries but I think if we look at it as a region one thing that we can say is that our educational systems have failed to produce enough trained students with the right skills, with enough skills and I think something where the private sector can actually come in and help and contribute is having a closer link with universities and institutions of research and higher education institutions in general so that we make sure that what they are teaching are the right skills and mostly the relevant skills that we need to actually pass that phase of producing commodities as Minister Molano was saying and become societies that are the engines of growth are manufacturers and services so I think another area where the private sector can actually add value is in enhancing vocational education and training programs and providing internships and apprenticeships. I think that's also something that is very relevant to close the gap between what the universities are teaching and what the private sector needs as trained workers. Another thing we can do is collaborate more with public research institutions in fact in doing joint research and development. I think that's something that has started in some countries in Mexico and Chile. You see some private public partnerships in doing R&D and another critical component is actually supporting small and medium enterprises because we must say that not all of the productive sectors in Latin America are as equally unproductive or have this productivity gap. I mean there are some sectors in for instance the Mexican economy that are very highly productive and very well integrated into the North American economy like the automotive sector and the electronic sector but then you have some sectors that are very far behind with very low productivity especially the small and medium enterprises. So something that we're seeing for instance the Mexican Council on Business, Consejo Mexicano de Negosius is actually having a big program to try to link with the small and medium enterprises as suppliers of the larger conglomerates and to integrate them into the value chain. Finally something that I think is critical and it is related to recommendation number two on enhancing policy effectiveness. Something that the private sector can do and must do is become a watchdog for the effectiveness of educational policies. I mean I think the Achilles heel of Latin America is the low quality of public education and also I must say private education. I mean in general if you look at standardized tests like the peace examination of the OECD, Latin American countries rank very low compared to other countries of similar income level and in fact if all of Latin American countries including Chile and Uruguay which are the best performing ones around 40% of the students rank zero or one in the math and science examination so and going up to you know I mean we all do pretty bad but if you look at the rank in Latin America is the best performing ones is Chile, Uruguay, then Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Peru so we're all doing very bad and if you look at the number of 15-year-olds that rank excellent in levels five and six in this examination other than Chile and Uruguay that have a two and three percent the rest of Latin America less than one percent of 15-year-olds rank in excellence so how can we produce you know engineers, high quality scientists when we don't have the raw material which is well educated you know elementary and secondary school graduates so I think something that many businessmen in several countries are doing is actually getting involved in public policy which I think is very important you know there's the example of mexicanos primary in Mexico you have todos por educación en brasil and what they do is actually you know applied research they also socialize the knowledge that they have to to actually pass the message that we're actually not getting good quality education because surprisingly many parents don't know then public policy proposals and advocacy and lobbying and I think that is critical you know for you know recommendation two of enhancing policy effectiveness thank you very much indeed we've we've gone across their whole suite of recommendations and ideas and and insights there from from freeing up money from qualities to to channel directly into into education how can we get a multiplier effect there lots of priorities we don't have very long and we are a swiss organisation that prides itself in its timing so we must finish on time but much this is a long-term report let's focus a little bit on the short term I just like each of you if if you if you will to just give us a very very brief outline of your top priority in 2015 for bridging this skills innovation gap from your own unique perspectives if you could have one priority we've we've gone through quite a few well I'll just say that in my case because I'm Mexican and I do participate in a NGO of businessman that has been active pushing the the educational reform for the past eight years now that the education reform was passed by the Mexican Congress or priorities the implementation of the reform because there's a great resistance of the teacher unions in three Mexican states and we we're there to watch that the reform is implemented you know in Colombia the same same case education education education we need to to create the workforce with the right skills um and so we have to define what those skills are and and and the systems on how we can really educate people with those skills and it would be easy for me to say those two things and I think I think we would but I'd also add that there's a great opportunity for countries in Latin America to learn from each other not all of the challenges have to be solved in every country and the good things are being done in Colombia you know could easily be replicated in Mexico and the best things done in Chile it could be helped in be helpful in in Panama that's the spirit of innovation find someone's really good idea make it a little bit better and then make it your own and then someone else will do the same thing so greater collaboration across the region will I think also be a priority and I would say you know the greater the improving the capacity within the within the within the public sector to to implement policies and to to to enhance the value of investments would be very important because on anything else we do is going to be influenced by this capacity so we will have a greater impact even thank you very much indeed well fascinating I wish you all the best with the ongoing continuation of this initiative thank you very much for joining us today thank you to our audience watching here live and online we'll be right back in under just under three minutes for our next press conference thank you very much thank you


Okay so welcome after the lunch please welcome Takuro Wada who's going to be talking about 3d modeling and printing by Python. So thank you for coming this talk and I'm gonna talk about 3d modeling printing and by Python. So first of all let me introduce myself in brief. My name is Takuro and I am a software engineer in Kabuku and Kabuku is a Japanese state which provides services related to 3d printing and who uses 3d printing before. Okay okay so I like to explain first about 3d printing today. So what is 3d printing? Literally 3d printing is creating products by forming accessible layers of material based on 3d data. So this is an example of 3d printer. This is a most prevailing method of 3d printer which is called FDM and in this method this method use plastic tube and melting it to create layers. So okay so what is required for 3d printing? So as I said 3d printing is create a successful material layer based on 3d data. So we need 3d data and 3d printer. So regarding 3d data 3d printer please buy it or you can use 3d printer service bureau or like shape width or scrub tail or Rinkaku. So regarding 3d data you can get by multiple way. For example you can buy 3d data from some website or you can download 3d data from some other website or of course you can create your own 3d data by yourself. And today I'm going to focus on creating 3d data so I like to talk about it and so how to create 3d data. So I like to introduce one example of 3d data format which is called STL and STL has two type format binaries and ASCII and this is ASCII. So seeing this format you can see second from second line to eighth line. There is a definition of triangle which is called polygon and the 3d model is consist of a bunch of polygons. So the format is so simple. So you can also find successful line, successful triangle definition is following the first triangle definition. So it's very, that's it, so simple. So format is so simple. So you can write your program to create this kind of data structure but creating this kind of 3d data from scratch is so hard task. So because you have to do some complicated matrix calculation or vector calculation so it's not good idea to create software from scratch. So many people using these kind of existing software like Maya, 3ds Max, Blender or Solidworks or Ryan Serres and fortunately this kind of software provided in the Python API. So that means you can manipulate or control your 3d data through Python scripts. And I'm not familiar with using 3d Caldo 3ds software so I started to create 3d model using Python script and I'm calling this method of 3d model creation as script modeling. So let me introduce script modeling. Script modeling, if you do script modeling you can create a 3d model even if you are not familiar with 3d cg or caldo software. So it's very good for software engineer like me and you can create shapes that are difficult for hand creation. And modifying shape is easier because as many programs those kind of program has some parameter to define the shape so if you change such kind of parameter you can change the resulting shape. So it's great and fantastic so I'm so excited to start this project. And today's software I will I'm going to talk about two software, Blender and OpenScap and it's free to use so you can start your script modeling today. Okay so let's start from Blender. So what is Blender? Blender is developed since 1995 so it's a little younger than Python and this is OpenSoftware and multi-platform Windows Mac Linux and this is developed by Shea, Shea++ and Python. And Python is used as API interface and Blender has its own Python interpreter in the software so the latest version of Blender is 2.778 so it's including 3.5.1 Python so you can use async.io in the script. Okay so this is a brief example of the Blender Python script. This script consists of two parts. First part is the rating default object part so if you run Blender there are default objects in the center cube and camera and lights so you have to do this kind of object before doing your job. So the upper part is the rating default object and this add-con method is doing the job. So this program is simply adding a cone in the scene. If you want to run your script in Blender, you can type this cone in your terminal, Blender, space, minus, large p, space, script name and then if you run this command, a cone will appear. So it's so basic script so because it's so basic script it may be not interesting. So I'd like to introduce my past project. One project is making chain and this is a 3d printed chain and this is originally made by the others and this is amazing. This is interesting chain and this is all 3d printed without assembling process. So when I sell this chain for this past time it's so amazing, so impressive. So the length of chain is not wrong so 5 maybe from 5 to 10 centimeters so I want to create a longer one. So I started this project and I have this printer called Affinia in my company and Affinia is one of the most famous printers all over the world and this is Affinia bed size. Bed is a 3d printed project will be placed on so the size of bed will define the maximum size of the 3d printed project, a product and when I think making one chain, the shape of chain is important so I had some ideas like this spiral based approach. So after thinking spiral one is better than in terms of space efficiency so I used this idea. Then I created a Python program to create this kind of chain so it's very simple place one module, move it, rotate, move it, rotate, move it, rotate so it's this kind of simple process and when I ran this script I got this result so it's interesting 3D circle and of course I 3d printed it so I was a little excited to see it because it's like a kind of cake so it's very good for me and after taking support material this is this beginning chain and the length of the chain is about one meter and after creating this chain as I said this is one meter so I want to create more longer one because I like jumping rope so my idea is to jump in rope with this chain so I decided to create more longer one so as I said the good point of script modeling is it's easy to change parameters so in this case I changed only this number from 200 to 500 so this is a printed one so to this chain the length is about 2.5 meters and I have to take all support materials and it took maybe eight hours and this is a result chain and yeah and when I try to jump in chain this chain was broken with one so sorry yeah so this is a chain project and the next project is Minecraft so maybe all of you know this software and what I do is what I did is connecting Alborinda and Minecraft world using of course Python script and specifically I convert this kind of ordinary 3d data into 3d block data and the transport the 3d block data into Minecraft so this software consists of two main parts one is combating 3d model into blocks so it's converting part and the other is transporting blocks into Minecraft so transporting part so regarding convert converting part is this so left side showed the original model and the right side shows converted model and there is a variable conversion so you can see the yeah rubber the changing rebel six seven eight original three five six seven so yeah this is a convergent part and trans regarding transporting part I used mcpi module and mcpi is Python module for Minecraft and I used Minecraft mode subba which calls pilot embedded with raspberry just plug in so after those of implementation I finally succeeded to send my face to Minecraft world so success I was so thank you so much and I tried so many times for testing there are so many protein place in my minecraft world and of course this place is consists of the normal Minecraft object you can dig the face and of course you can live in your face that's fantastic isn't it and of course I 3d printed it but it's a no car so I cannot understand with my eye okay so the program is this project is published in github so if you are interested in the project please have a look and this is a brand a project and the next I will talk about openscat so what is openscat openscat is chaos software whereas Brenda is 3d CG software and this is also open source with DPL and the module platform Windows Mac Linux and this software is implemented by she press press with cute framework and you can create 3d module using original programming language which is a little similar to JavaScript but it's not JavaScript and there is no GUI to manipulate or create 3d data in this software so if you want to manipulate 3d software using sorry if you manipulate your 3d data using this software you have to write your screen it's very interesting concept and this is the screenshot of the software left side show the code and right side show the shape created from the left side call and feature up 3d openscat it's very good for software engineer like me so it's very simple concept it's easy to understand and the written script can be kicked from a command line so you can generate your module in server or you can create multiple module well with a single command that's so cool so let me introduce my past project I've created this next time this nectar is composed of multiple characters and there is a bunch of name of my company's colleague so there is mark there is many letters and this is a 3d model so well when I think creation of this model I have to create all alphabet so a to z like this and there are four kind of modules so I have to create a four kind times 26 characters so 104 model I have to create like this so creating by hand is so annoying task so I created this base module and applied this module to this script so you can parse arguments from command line to open scale script yeah so in this case I passed the character information like a to open scale script then open scout will create the whole of the character in the script so it's very interesting so open scale is so awesome software I think but writing open chat original script a little hard because the that's run which has no high functional syntax or there is no class or there is no object there is no inheritance so if you try if you are trying to create some complicated object it's a little difficult so I created Python library this Python library open pie escape so this library generate open scout code from Python code I've already published this library to get help so you can check it and I also register to pipe I so you can install this software VIP command okay so let me introduce the open pie escape so if you want to apply union operation you you write only this upper side as operation because I implement them down though as operator so you can use this operator and then this is generated open scout code yeah it's very intuitive icing and different operation is the same so you can use subtracts operator to create difference operation and if you want to apply a rotation you will create cube object and add a prior rotate method to the object then this open scout code which be generated so if you want to apply so many types of method or for example rotate scale transform union difference intersection to one object the next river is so high in open scout source code so it's very hard to maintenance I think so if you use this open scout open pie a scale script you you didn't you were a boy such can hide nested problem so let's demo okay the left side is a screen of open scale and the right side is a Python code so first import okay so if you run this script you can see the cube and if you want to add some cube to this field oh it's so small this is a union object and if I'm now using odd operator and if you change this subtract operator you will see the subtracted object and my rival is holding debug method in open scout so you can apply debug method and the subtracted object we see this kind of style yeah it's very intuitive I think and another example of course this is a normal Python script so you can create class so in the class I'm creating empty object and odd cube with translation so if I run oh sorry if I run this script oh you will see this kind shape so this is not interesting but you can apply this kind of approach to use 3d modeling creation I think okay so back to stride okay so conclusion of my presentation script modeling is fun so let's start today okay and finally my company is hiring Python developer she press press developer front-end developer and if you join my company you can use 3d printer for free as you like and we have so international members from England Sweden Germany Eston in Australia and we have we also have three Google developer experts so we are very interested in working in Japan or working in my company please talk to me later or see this top board that is thanks you have any questions hello thanks for your talk it's great and what do you use for scanning those faces because I guess this is scant or modeled my face yes and the others I use the scanner which is called sense provided by 3d systems okay yeah thank you any more questions thanks for presentation really engaging I think in an interesting way maybe with engaging kids I think I feel like a kid I want to play with these things one technical question yeah your open pi s cad yeah yeah and your demo when you are you actually saving it to a file oh yeah so you create a script and you at some point you said blah blah blah example dot yeah yeah yeah when you run it it passes that file into open s cad is that the way it goes or do you communicate directly with open s cat now in regarding the function open s cat is watching the part change so yeah just I'm overwriting fire then open a scale detect the change of fire and reload it okay thank you I'm still got some time for questions anybody else so why not rendering directly the stl file from the python model maybe as an extra option three rendering the object yeah directly to the free representation to an stl object or any other kind of 3d representation instead of using the s cad you mean why are we why I'm using stl okay in my minecraft project open pi scale so yeah so yeah finally I will export stl to 3d printed but in this under in this software I'm trying to some prototyping in the screen so I finally I created I finally I created just shape I want I will export it to stl okay anybody else so thank you very much again


Hey, Psych2Goers, welcome back to a brand new video. Do you have time set aside to rest, relax, or do things that you enjoy? With how society has been emphasizing the need for being productive, people have started to fill their already busy routines with even more tasks and removing any free time they have.  According to a recent study by the Mental Health Foundation, only 13% of people are living with good mental health, with 65% reporting having experienced a mental health problem. When your focus is just on work or school, you may end up forgetting about your mental well-being.  Number one, you put everyone's needs before your own. Are you constantly trying to please the people in your life without thinking about yourself first? Of course, everything depends on circumstance. Putting other people's needs before your own can be very effective for forming strong relationships and can sometimes help give meaning to your life. However, when you constantly do this for the wrong reasons such as because of guilt, peer pressure, or tradition, you may end up building a bad and harmful habit of always sacrificing your own needs and wants for others. This can bring about a great deal of stress, a higher risk of depression, and the possible risk of developing neurotic tendencies. Number two, you lean on unhealthy habits to hide your emotions. Have you ever felt like the best way to deal with depression is by ignoring it? Defaulting to unhealthy habits just to hide or numb our emotions might feel like a good idea at first, but it can lead to a number of consequences for your mental and physical well-being in the long run. According to provisional clinical psychologist, Victoria Tarrett, suppressing your emotions is known to affect your blood pressure, memory, and self-esteem. Additionally, you might also let out your pent-up emotions in unfortunate circumstances. For example, the unaddressed negative emotions you may have for your family may manifest themselves into frustration and get the better of you when you're driving. Number three, you lose interest in things you used to care about. Are you bored with the things you used to enjoy? This may be a sign that your mental health has deteriorated. Your lack of interest in things that you used to care about, be it your personal hygiene or hobby, can be attributed to depression, anxiety, emotional fatigue, or burnout. All of these affect your mental health and can heavily disrupt your daily life if not dealt with. While it can be difficult to address, especially when you don't feel like doing anything, it's important to try to move forward and push against these habits since they can worsen your mental well-being in the long run. Number four, you have trouble concentrating. You often have difficulty staying focused. Having trouble concentrating is normal and can happen to anyone. However, if you're constantly struggling to focus on something that you're doing, there's a high chance that your mental health is declining. A lack of concentration can be attributed to a variety of factors, including anxiety, excess stress, and lack of sleep. This is something that people often brush off and ignore since it can happen to anyone on off days. However, if you notice that you're constantly struggling with staying on task, you might need to seek help to address some of the anxiety or stress-related problems you may be experiencing. Number five, you have physical symptoms that you can't explain. Did you know that mental problems can cause physical pain? The human body needs to be healthy, both mentally and physically, in order to operate optimally. There's no point in being in great physical condition if you don't have the motivation to do anything and vice versa. If you're experiencing some physical discomfort without any real explanation, there is a chance that your mental health may be responsible for it. According to clinical psychologist Deborah Offner, being under constant anxiety and stress can result in stomach aches and headaches. So whenever you experience these types of unexplainable physical symptoms, try to take note of them and take them to your GP to see if these problems are indeed caused by anxiety and stress overload. Number six, your sleep cycle is off. Have you experienced any sleeping disorders? According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, NAMI, mental health issues are very closely related to sleeping disorders. The thing about the interaction between poor mental health and sleeping disorders is that they feed each other. In other words, if you neglect your mental health, it directly affects the amount of time and quality of sleep you get. At the same time, when your sleep cycle is off, your mental health may deteriorate until you address the issue. Number seven, you criticize yourself for every mistake. Do you constantly criticize yourself for everything that happens? Having the willingness to even acknowledge that you made a mistake takes a lot of mental fortitude. A lot of people would rather just blame someone or something else instead. However, on the other hand, if you fall into the habit of always criticizing yourself for every little mistake that you make, your mental health may suffer. So while it's important that you're able to take responsibility for your actions, it's also healthy for your mental well-being that you avoid only having this type of constant negativity surrounding your way of thinking. And number eight, you overwork to get to the finish line quickly. Are you someone who is constantly rushing to get things done? Well, a big part of how successful you become depends on how hard you work. Overworking yourself to get things done quickly may end up simply causing you to exhaust yourself and burn out, both physically and mentally. So as much as it's good to be productive and efficient at work, making sure to have a good balance between your work and taking care of your mental and physical health can go a long way for your success in the long run.

PDD's better, right? Refactoring's better. They're actually really, really good at the way they've learned how to program. So if we want, so this sort of opened my eyes to realize that we can't just preach to people, oh, am I running out of time? Okay, so my last thing, you can't just preach to people that something's better. You have to have some empathy that they will actually have to get worse for a while before they can learn this new thing. So that's what I've learned about Rubik's Cube. I got one minute left. Authority. Stereotypically, India has a problem with authority or more rather a love of authority. Might be a more appropriate way of putting it. But one thing that we need to learn about agility and working in agile organizations is that authority isn't what you think it is. It's not about position. So I'm gonna demonstrate that so pretty quickly. Can I just get everyone to stand up for a second? Yep. All right, now stretch your arms in the air. All right, now wave them. Throw out the horns. There we go. All right, now sit down. I have authority. Exactly. I'm not your boss. I have no authority. I have no institutional authority over you whatsoever. I have what we call influential authority. I can influence the way that you act not because I'm put in a position but because you grant me the authority. The trick to being a good coach or consultant or in fact anybody is to learn how to get people to give you authority in any situation. One of the reasons I wear a three-piece suit. I walk into a meeting in a three-piece suit. It gives them a second to go, hang on, is he in charge? And I can usually take charge in that second so it works for me. So there you go. Two minutes, Naish authority. Yeah. What should I talk about here? This is very, I'm surprised. I don't know. You're in the world of conferences. Yeah, yeah. Well, I love to come to be in the conference spaces. I'm participating in a lot of conferences. And the fact about being part of conferences is sharing learning. That's just realized, why am I such a conference junkie? And if I introspect myself, it was share the learning and have new connections. So I love being a connector. What about you? Inspiration, opening new doors. Now you can ask me why I love opening new doors. And then you can have a conversation about how the brain works. And that's, thank you for the topic. So if anyone else wants to come up, it's just, I'm here just because Ivan invited me. So how our brain works? One of the things that I found out are using agile or implemented agile and working in agile teams and trying to understand what's keeping us going forward made me interesting in neuroscience and how the brain works. And there are two things. The contradiction of the brain is something that fascinated me.  But it's also very lazy. So it maximizes the work not to be done. Very curious, why and why are we curious? I don't know exactly what unfolded in our brain to become curious and make, put in concepts, but we are also curious because there's one purpose, main purpose of our brain. Do you guess what that is? It's not about fancy concepts. We are in the top of the food pyramid because we know to deal with concepts. But brain's first mission is to keep us alive just like that's the mission. That's the first priority. And so we put up everything to keep us out of danger. So that's why decide fast, decide fast. And we use that habit to decide fast at all levels, including conceptual levels. When we learn something, it's learned. So we make fast decision on that. So this is the pretty nice, effective side of how our brain works. But there's a dark side. That's the exact reason of cognitive biases because something that we've learned, we use it the way that we learn it and it becomes a blind spot. And I think I'm done. Thank you. Because I've heard one thing many times, a discussion around is it okay to fit in agile inside the waterfall? And that's probably a very good discussion as well. And my opinion on this discussion is that if you are working in a company where you are dealing with a product and you actually do not want to decide everything based on requirements from the customers, but actually you yourself want to decide fate of your product, the direction which you want to adopt for your product. In that case, probably it's okay to do internal agile, deal with those internal customers who are deciding how exactly this product should be developed. And once that's ready, then do a major release, probably that's my opinion. And I would really like to get some inputs on this sort of work style. Since I come from, we are going to this dilemma of having hypothesis and taking assumptions on top of assumptions. And the biggest challenge for us is how do we validate those riskiest assumptions? Because as you said, internal customers, it's all based on a lot of assumptions based on their experiences. And how do we validate those are critical one to make an outcome of what we're doing, right? So that's where I believe if we have to really do something meaningful, you have to put the customer in the sender and build what is required for him to be feeling awesome, right? So I strongly believe that customer could be an internal customer based on what product you're building. But it should be, we have to uncover and we have to test those hypothesis and assumptions. Based on that, we make, this is what we need to build. Or this is what we need to have, right? I think that is the riskiest proposition, right? So my take is it's all about when you are chasing an unknown problem and an unknown solution, you have to keep validating those by keeping customer in the sender and uncovering those hypothesis. So everyone who giving you a requirement, they will have certain hypothesis in the mind or they might have listened or heard from someone but we have to validate that. So that's where for me agile is to help to uncover the uncertainty. Let me take a different approach. Why, when do you not use agile? Yeah, if you know the solution and there's no ambiguity in the solution, there's no likelihood of that solution changing. Any other reasons? Well, no, no, no, I disagree with that statement, 100%. I'll come back to that in a second. All right, when the solution is done, yeah, no, they're not agile, all right. In this room, we can at least be honest with ourselves and say that's not agile. So, okay, the two times we don't do agile in my opinion and the inverses when we do. Number one, when there is no ambiguity, not in the requirements, all right, but in the solution, all right, because the requirements are by definition ambiguous. We don't know, we're guessing, but if we've built the same thing 10 times and we know what it's gonna look like, then yes, we don't need agile. The other case might be cost of change where the cost of change is prohibitively high, all right. And if we know that the cost of change, it's why once we start building a bridge, we don't change our mind and bring out the sledgehammers and build another one because it's too expensive, all right. The worst case of making a mistake in an agile world is a week's work, all right, maybe a drop. So, to answer, yeah. So, to answer your point or my perspective of the point, hybrid agile is a cop out, all right, it's for people who aren't trying hard enough. Now, if there is ambiguity and the cost of change is acceptable, then there is no need to do this half-assed agile. I very much agree with both points that were made. The only add-on I would have is to this idea of internal customers, which I believe are a little bit of a fabrication. Often they're not real customers. We all have the same customer. Every one, my internal customer has another internal customer has another, but at the end, there's one customer. That's the person that really matters. Everyone in the middle isn't really the person that we're building the system for. So, when we introduce these internal customers, we're further separating the work we do from the actual reason that we're building it. And we're removing the opportunity to get real feedback from the actual person that we're building it for. So, the longer those feedback loops, that's the big thing about Waterfall. We have these long, long feedback loops to find out if the actual thing we're building is the right thing. Our internal customer will tell you that they believe they know the answer. But that's very, that's just, it's not true. It's a lie. For example, you've got product owners, product owner, proxy product owner, a business analyst proxy, who's been role created for an organization and they want to protect the role. So, they pretend to be a customer who create a hypothesis on hypothesis. I think we've got the last one. It's working for a client and that client is building a product for someone else. So, we do not directly get the feedback from the end users. All we got to here is from our client whom we are working for. And it's, again, their perception as what happens then. So, the objective is, how do you bring them in the game? Yes. Then maybe in particular. Yes. Bringing them in the game only, the chances of you becoming more successful. The whole problem, the reason this question was, actually, probably this is more of a transition phase when these things have been more rare than child inside the Waterfall. But gradually you start moving completely towards the Waterfall because you start making those internal customers needs. You start triggering those discussions. And that leads to overhaul of the organization itself and they move from Waterfall. Great discussion. Thanks. Thank you, guys. Thanks, everyone, for participating in this lightning talk.


You too team keep it clean. What's going on? It's engraving here with another video and in this video. I Haven't made a video all day. I've been thinking about this subject. I've been thinking about this topic For a while. I've been thinking about this for a while definitely over the past couple days especially but Something that I wanted to ask is is Don wink Martindale the Ravens new defensive coordinator Is this dude overrated already is he overrated already because it seems that a lot of people are following this trend Because and what's going everybody that's coming through so fast. I love y'all. I really love y'all and I appreciate y'all We're not gonna be here too long and I know I always say that but yes I we are actually not gonna be here too long this time for real, but he Well, I guess I got some leftover lunch in my mouth anyway because a lot of people are on this Don wink Martindale this hype train and it's understandable because of what we had in D&P's and but D&P's he wasn't a bad defensive coordinator It wasn't that D&P's ran a bad defense because the defense he ran was pretty good The defense he ran was it was nice, but he just couldn't close that was his problem He couldn't close. He wasn't a closer the defense didn't when Ravens would be up or something like that They they just wouldn't close it out. They wouldn't close it out if they were up big They wouldn't close it out. It just that he wasn't a good closing defense, but I feel like so many people Are just on this hype train and I'm not trying to be a negative Nancy anything So don't think that I'm just I just want to be realistic And I want I don't want people to have the expectations so high and be like oh man Yeah, this this defense is gonna be amazing blah blah blah because they got the players to be amazing but if you ain't got the the coordinator then It might not mean anything But with the players, okay, we got a shot. We definitely got a shot to be a great defense and whatnot, but a Lot of people and and of course the players have been talking about it like oh, yeah, this defense Let's us be loose this defense. It's not so black and white this defense. Let's us be free this defense The oh he learned from the Ryan brothers. Well, that's a good thing, but it may not always translate Hopefully it translates and hopefully it's it it works because I'm hoping for the best I'm hoping this dude just goes out there and kills it. That's what I'm hoping for but I just I just want there to be um, I want there to be A realistic expectation because I don't want people to come and I mean it's gonna happen either way I don't want people to come around and be like man.  He sucks He's terrible and after all this hype that he's been getting that's what I'm trying to try to like sort of calm The hype down now just in case it gets out of hand because there've been articles like terrell suds was quoted saying that He's gonna let them get back to what ravens used to do um, there's gonna be There was an article this today that um, jameson hensley that he wrote whether the title of it was from robot To something I forgot what it what it mentioned after that it said from robot to something But it didn't talk about how don wink mohendale. He's gonna be a great. Uh, he's gonna be a great defensive coach So it's like People are saying all this stuff And I think eric guettel mentioned something in a press conference a couple weeks ago um And it's it's just a lot of people on this hype train and I think the hype train is more so from people uh Getting off of the the dmps getting off of that That uh, whatever you want to call that them just being ready to be done with dmps um And them just being excited to move on from dmps. That's what I think it is I think it's more so people are excited to move on from dmps. They're excited for something new which we all are And the same can be said about how people feel about flacco too Because with flacco, uh, well, I mean we all know the story already. We ain't gonna we don't even need to get into it but um Hey good stuff big simple Do your thing man. I hope it takes off too. Um, but With with with dmps, uh, yeah, like somebody did mention who wasn't shown Let me go back up to the comment because it was a real good one. Um Where'd it go? Where'd it go? Oh sam sam. No not sam. Wait a minute. They scroll back up. I'm looking for where to go Where'd it go? um Oh, it was sam there it goes sam said flacco didn't end our season two years in a row just saying and That's true Flacco put us in positions the past two years for our d for our team to be in the playoffs um Now had flacco and the offense played a lot better earlier in both of those seasons Then we wouldn't be facing these uh end of season elimination from the playoff games, but It happens is what it is. But Again, like I always say flacco. He only steps up He only shines and is only plays elite style when we need him the most Um Other than that he'll be so so but anyway, he did his part toward the end of the seasons And he did his thing in those games where we needed him to just ball out. He did it. He did it um And last year, of course, we know the famous fourth and 12th play The year before that we know the uh, antonio brown play where he ran through three ravens um, eric weddo Lidaria swerve and there was one more I think Who was the other one? Somebody said it was levine. I forgot who it was man. Um, but Either way, we know that um This defense just hasn't been closing it out. They haven't been closing it out. Um, I always draw powers That's what it was. Okay draw powers. Okay um, but either way Wasn't he the guy that fell down the uh, I think it was him that fell down in that video But he caught his son Y'all know that video i'm talking about where he fell down like this heel and his son was falling down the heel too And he caught his son like at the last second. Do y'all remember that that was draw powers, right? Okay, it was jb Small, okay, appreciate it, man. That was it. Um, but oh, okay, appreciate it, man. But anyway, I just I feel like I feel like martin dale He's just How mad would you how mad would you be if we cut joe and he goes to the bingles or even worse the stealers if veneratized? I wouldn't be mad because I would be happy for him that he got another chance to start But I wouldn't be mad. It would just be one of it will be like uh Like a thing that hurt you in the heart. I wouldn't be mad. I'll be I would be hurt. I wouldn't be mad though Uh, we lost we lost to hall of fame players players kind of hard for any defense to recover from that We lost those players. What six years ago. Well, that was six years ago, right? Yeah, six years ago No, that ain't no excuse that ain't no excuse them dudes were from six years ago and We just we ain't been able to close well five years ago five years ago my fault. Um tom said perhaps He said help perhaps. I have a problem with youtube. I don't I don't see the video all just black screen Oh man. All right. Well, I don't know what's going on. Maybe maybe he's calling me that black. Maybe I'm that dark Okay, well, I apologize. I've been in the sun too much Um, so yeah, okay five years. So we lost them five years ago, but still I No, well with all the NFL rule changes, it's even harder to play real defense in today's league Yes, it is it is it makes it harder for the defense and it they the rules are for the offense and they Help out the offense, but still closing is closing with the rules or not Um and with our defense, they just have not been able to close They haven't been able to close They have not been able to close for nothing. I mean, we've never been able to replace them and make plays No, we had a play making I mean even last year look at last year just for instance, we made plenty of plays on defense They just didn't close stuff out Um, I want a video on if sucks honestly will be done after this year in Baltimore I don't know if he will get another contract and oh, we did a video on that correct We did a video on that Sugs should have retired after the kill. He's not I'm so still he still went out there and he killed it Man, well at least the beginning of the years toward the end of the years. He slows down But at the beginning of the year, he does this thing Um, so this is crazy man. It's crazy to see that sucks is still playing like we talked about before It's only him and Terrence Newman man from that draft class and maybe one other person But I think it's just him and Terrence Newman So we'd rather get in trouble by your wife for not not doing something She asked for or rewatched the fourth and 12 But rather get in trouble for your wife for not doing something she asked for or rewatched the fourth and 12 game well both punishments um, I'm gonna say get in trouble for doing something that my wife asked me to do uh, because um Hmm. Well, you know what that's tricky I would say get in trouble because the getting in trouble from her Would last it would last it would last a less amount of time Then that fourth and 12 that fourth and 12 that ends your Football season that ends you watching your team for the next what six months Football is still on for two more months, but that That ends your football watching well not football watching but that ends you watching your team for the next six months She gets mad you can get past that a couple hours A day at the most you don't go to sleep on it, but You can get past that a lot faster than the fourth and 12 like that fourth and 12 man that That was sad man. It was say it was very disappointing More disappointing than sad and it was just like wow these dudes really did this again to us They really and they they had they they they had me thinking out now, but I believed in these guys, man I'm like, oh, yeah, they they got it. They're gonna do this man She was right there watching it with me too And then she her words exactly She was like why does this stuff always happen against the bingles? That's what she asked That's what she asked That was that was those were her words exactly. She said why does this stuff always happen against the bingles? So she knows She knows what the bingles do to Baltimore Uh, especially at the end of the seasons They the ones that took us out to playoffs the year after the Super Bowl We could have been after the Super Bowl. We could have been in the playoffs again lost to the bingles last year lost to the bingles um They just boy that Steve Smith seen you. Oh that game. Oh that game was annoying Onward shout out to you man. I saw the uh the mailbag thing I saw it shout out to you man. No way is he overrated. We can say we can say anything until the season starts Oh, we no way is he overrated. We can't say anything until the season starts But that's what i'm saying people are already saying stuff. That's what i'm saying people are already saying stuff now So they already overrated him like from now people calling him great People say oh man, this defense is this this this defense is that um They saying all this different stuff about this defense and whatever, but we ain't even seen the defense They didn't even play the preseason game and people saying all that stuff so No, man, he's That's why I say he's probably already getting overrated But anyway appreciate y'all man. I will see y'all later on tonight Thank y'all for coming through and remember put put whatever you feel like in the comment section If you feel like he's overrated, let me know if you don't feel like he's overrated Let me know man. I love y'all. Thank y'all for coming through especially on such short notice We out man
