in a time where extreme high sampling rates and lots of features seem to rain. The Swiss company Mirazon brings a very basic DAC that does 192 kHz at best, uses a 7 year old DAC chip, has no remote control and no display. What are they thinking? Again a review based on a request from a viewer and I was immediately intrigued. For it's a DAC that is based on a 7 year old DAC chip by Burr Brown, the company that was already taken over by Texas Instruments some years ago. And it comes from the same country as brands like Nagra, Goldman and Weiss, Switzerland. A country that is not known for its cheap products. While the Mirazon DAC1 on test here isn't a low end product, at 4850 euros it's more affordable than the products from the year 4 mentioned brands. But let's first see how to use the DAC1. It has to be connected over analog inter-connects to an amplifier. That can be an integrated amp, like drone here or a pre-amp and a power amp combination. Both XLR and RCA cables can be used. Either way the amp needs to be connected to a set of loudspeakers unless you want to use headphones. If your music is on a computer you can connect that to the DAC1 over USB, spirit or tostling digital connection, depending on the interfaces on the computer. You then best use music jukebox software that works bit perfect, like OREVANA, AMARA or J River Media Center. Another way of working is to use a network player that is connected to the PC or to a NAS over the network and to the DAC over either AES-EBU, tostling or spirit. Usually such a setup is controlled by a tablet or smartphone. But you can also use a CD player and connect that over AES-EBU, tostling or spirit to the DAC1. You can even use both a network player and a CD player, although not at the same time of course. The DAC1 has a stainless steel cabinet with either a white or black acrylic front. Stainless steel is a bit of a contradiction in terminus, for it has the property of showing fingerprints easily. But it looks great. Being 455mm wide, it is slightly wider than the usual 440mm. It's 290mm deep, 100mm tall and weighs 8kg. On the left we find the power switch, the digital lock indicator, an indicator for a digital signal present on the USB input and four indicators that show what input is active. Switching sequentially between inputs is done with the input selector. On the rear the IC mains input, the AES-EBU input, the SPIDF input, the USB Audio Class 2 input and the tostling input. To the left the balanced analog outputs on XLR and the single ended outputs on RCA. Inside we see two canned 50VA Torodile transformers, one for the digital and one for the analog circuit. The low AC voltage outputs of the transformers are converted to DC voltages on this part of the circuit board. Here for the digital electronics and to the right two identical circuits, one for each channel. The digital electronics, basically just interfacing, can be found here. Despite the fact that the DAC chips can handle 192 kHz, the AES-3 inputs, all but USB, are limited to 96 kHz PCM. DSD is not supported at all. The USB input is taken care of by the Amunero Combo 384 eSolar module, here limited to 192 kHz because of the DAC chips. These can be found here and here, another Burr-Brown PCM 1794 AES. Burr-Brown calls them advanced segment DACs, meaning that the incoming signal is 8 times oversampled and then spread up in two ranges that are individually converted to analog, adjusted in amplitude and added again. This way, a better linearity can be achieved. I measured that to conclude that below 115 dbfs linearity is gone. Current DAC chips achieve better but it is questionable how audible that is. Time resolution is more of a factor, according to my ears and that is influenced by the quality of the clock signal and the reconstruction filters. Marathon has opted for linear phase filters. After the digital channel conversion we see discrete class A IV conversion and output buffer circuits. High quality capacitors and transistors being mounted on miniature cooling profiles, very methodical PCB layout, it all leaves a high quality impression. I'll show you one more detail. The cover panel has slots in which raised portions of the front and the back panel slides. This makes the cabinet very rigid and tells something about the designer. Something good. The advantage of a minimalistic design can be that it is very easy to operate, as it is in this case. Connect your amp and your source, select the corresponding input and you're set. No remote control, no display, no settings to set and if you want to change the volume, that's done on the amplifier. Selecting music, that is done on the digital source, being it a network player or CD player. As said earlier, the speed of Toslink and AES-EBU are limited to 96 kHz 24 bit. The USB input goes up to 192 kHz 24 bit. It's audio class 2 so it will work directly with all operating systems save windows that might need a driver to be downloaded depending on the windows version. I used my setup 1 for testing. 1A or 1B is not a factor here since the only difference is the DAC and that is replaced anyway. The DAC 1 was connected to the Air AX520 amplifier that drives the AudioPhysics Scorpio loudspeakers over AudioQuest Robinhood Zero loudspeaker cable. The digital source is the Grim Audio Mu1 that is a Roon Server, Roon Endpoint, ReClocker and Scaler in one. It is connected to the SOtM SNH10G network switch over the Network Acoustics ENO Streaming System AG. Initially the connection between the Grim Audio and the DAC 1 was the Siltek AES-EBU cable while the up and down Scaler in the Grim Audio was switched off. Later on the Scaler was set to 96 kHz. The third way tested was via the USB output of the Grim Audio. This essentially is a direct connection to the Intel Nugth i3 in the player and thus of clearly poorer quality. The fourth way was via the Allo USB signature streamer with Allo Shandy dual linear power supply with Roopi Roon Endpoint software. In both cases an AudioQuest Diamond USB A2 USB B cable is used. The first thing I noticed is that it is pleasant to listen to the music on the DAC 1. You might consider this a strange remark but I am really serious. Right from the start you listen to the music and not to the technical properties of the DAC. It lures you into the music and that's an important characteristic of a DAC. But being a reviewer I do need to dive into the sound qualities. The low end is powerful though not fat. Creamy rather and it's seducing. It doesn't have the transient behaviour of the chord you go to. It rather is like the Denaflips Terminator Plus. The step image is excellent for this class as is the focusing. Switching on the 2FS scaling on the Grimm improves the transients, the spatial imaging and the focusing further. But that's mainly due to the great scaling of the Grimm Audio. Time to use the USB output on the Grimm Audio. As said this is essentially a normal Linux computer output and that isn't the best way to connect a DAC. The Anamero module that converts the USB signal into I2S saves what there is to save but the difference is clear. I mention this especially because many still play music on a costly DAC using the USB from a normal computer. A far better way is to use a network player, network bridge or DDC. I have playlists on all three types. See the notes below this video on YouTube. I also used the AlloUse bridge signature as a network bridge for Roon and that gives clearly better results, although the refinement of using the AES-EBU output of the Grimm Audio is not met. To classify the DAC one, it ends in the lower quarter of my setup one. The Merison DAC is a very musical sounding DAC. Sit back, play your favourite music and it will bring you hours of joy. Do a stressed A B test against some other DACs and you will find properties that it will do better and others that are less. But try to sit back and play your favourite music with the other DAC before you design. I know some of you can't go for this DAC since it's limited to 96 kHz over AES-3 and then by 92 kHz over USB while there are enough DACs that do 786 or even higher. The question is, does that sound better? Directly followed by the question, what music is available at that sampling rate? But you might think you better have it. For those that can find that rational, listen to the Merison DAC one and then decide. You might be surprised and don't forget to invest in a good digital source. I've tested and owned the SOtM and Aurelic products that are great sources. As is the LO-USB signature with dual power supply. And of course, all in their class. They are far more important than 768 kHz and about DSD, who owns a lot of DSD recordings. For those mostly classical music lovers, a DSD capable DAC might be a better solution. But popular music is hardly ever available in DSD. I own several hundreds of DSD albums, mainly ripped SHCDs. And on my set of 1A, I often hear no difference between the SHCD version and the CD version, both ripped. And if I hear a difference, it's most likely due to different mastering. That was the case when I still used the Aurelic LSG2 streamer. That could send unaltered DSD to the Cordave. And that is the case now when the Grimm Audio converts DSD to 176.4 kHz PCM. So the question whether you should buy the Merison DAC one, if you're in the market for a sub 5000 euro DAC, is not does it sound very good and emerging, but rather can you live with the theoretical restrictions of 192 kHz and no DSD. A true bombshell to leave you with. But I will be back with the Mitec Liberty DAC 2 next Friday at 5pm C European time.

Mark, mae'r thwynt yn gyffredig bod i ffyrdd o'r phobl. Rhaenny'n gallu ddigonol arfod. Felly, mae'n gweithio'r ffordd pan rhaedden o'r ddigonol yn'r sefydliadod o ddechrau'n ddw'i hefyd.

Ac yna wrth gwrs iawn, oherwydd rhaid yn clywed yn bryd yn ymweld yn ymddangos. Mae'n gweithio'r game yn ffair i ni, i gyd yn ffyrdd hon yn gweithio'r gwaith. Ac mae'n gweithio'r golygu.

Mae'n credu'r gweithio'r gweithio, mae'n credu'r gweithio'r gweithio. We've kept the momentum which is important. We've played two good sides in a short space of time on one both games so that's a good feeling for everybody. How important is that game management in 1-0 at the break but a little bit of adversity albeit probably working in our favour with them having the man sent off? And going forward they were a couple of early changes but it's still things that I guess we have to adapt to in the second arc. Yeah like I said they kept two men up and tried to lock us in Felly, dwi wedi bod wedi bod yn bwysig yn dweud i'r ddwylo. Felly, mae'n gweld yn ystod o'r ddweud i'r cyffredinol. Felly, mae'n grwp yn ddylch i'r ddweud, ond, fel hynny'n gweithio, mae'n ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud i'r 3 pwynt, yma, y pwynt i'r 1 yma, ac mae'n gweithio i'r ddweud i'r ddweud. Yn dweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud i'r ddweud, those is what would perhaps not what you brought him in for so labor. Him and Harry Chapman was the two very good goals in the end. Yeah, two great strikes and yeah, really pleased to see them going in. It just set us down at good times and after Chappies go went in, I thought Chappie played really well in terms of being the creative spike for us and will need more of that because on occasions we'll find teams I'm making it difficult for us because they show us that respect, but in the end, as I said, so the game are quite comfortably, probably needed to create more chances to up end just to make it more emphatic, but happy enough with 2-0. You mentioned the importance of that home for him, I guess coming off a victory like we did on Tuesday night, still remaining undefeated at home and going out and getting all three points today was important in terms of what we want to grow on and what we want to do this season at home under work. Yeah, we talked about going on a run and making sure that we're difficult to beat here and showing signs that teams will come in and actually respect the ability we've got and probably not come at us as maybe they have done in the past. That's credit to what we've been able to, the message we've been able to get out there in terms of how we want to play. But we show these areas of our play that we can clearly work on and be better at and as a season progresses fully expect that to happen. Plans to build on with back-to-back away games now on the horizon? Yeah, not easy going away, but like I said, we're in good hands, we're in confidence wise, we're in good place, back-to-back wins has done that for us. So going through a difficult game with that, we haven't really had good memories, obviously not last year, so we want to put that to rights and obviously we'll face the game of the weekend after that one.


In this video, I will demonstrate how we use a GitOps tool known as ARGO CD to automate management of our instance of the Open Data Hub, thus improving our team's development velocity. Just a level set, the Open Data Hub is an open source community project that integrates multiple open source technologies such as Kubeflow and Jupyter Hub into a single end-to-end AIML platform running on OpenShift. ARGO CD, on the other hand, is a commonly used tool in the GitOps world. The idea behind GitOps is that the desired state of your applications and your infrastructure must reside in Git before some automated process deploys them. Data science projects are often very complex with tons of dependencies and a lot of tribal knowledge. This results in the onboarding process for new data scientists being very long and drawn out. Jupyter Hub allows us to somewhat alleviate this by using custom images for our notebook servers. Data scientists or anyone really can create custom images ahead of time that all users of the environment can utilize. What this means is that you can spend less time figuring out what packages to download or what repos to clone and really focus on the interesting stuff. Before we really started using GitOps, the general workflow for custom images involved some data scientists reaching out to the ops team with a request for a new image that had XYZ packages installed in it. Unfortunately, this usually meant that the custom image creation process was very slow. The ops team had to balance this new request with existing work and there was always a lot of back and forth before the image was actually usable. Things like, oh, this repository is wrong or I need that version of the library, all these small things that actually add up in the end. As more and more people started using the open data hub, we quickly realized that we needed a better way to do this. This is where Argo CD proved to be the proverbial magic bullet. By defining an exact process for data scientists to follow, to create custom images and make them available on Jupyter Hub, we were able to make both sides a lot happier. All data scientists had to do was submit a poor request to one of our repositories and once it was approved by an admin, the image was available on Jupyter Hub. So with that introduction out of the way, let's dive into the demo. What you can see on the screen right now is the ODH dashboard. This has links to all of the applications that are currently deployed in our ODH instance. In our case, we only care about the Jupyter Hub. So let's click on launch. Here, we're just going to use LDAP to authenticate to OpenShift. So I'm going to enter my corpus credentials and hope for the best. Once I've entered my credentials, we land at the Jupyter Hub spawner page. On this page, we can pick an image to spawn on Jupyter Hub. What when? Let's go with the minimal. As well as any number of configurations such as size of container, whether or not we want the GPU to be available or any environment variables that we may want to find in our notebook environment. And Jupyter Hub begins to spin up a pod for us in OpenShift. The choice of image determines what packages, libraries, and other dependencies are already installed in our environment once it is available. Since we've picked the minimal image, I'm not expecting to see a lot of dependencies or packages installed. I'd created a sample notebook ahead of time, which was saved in my environment. So let's go check it out. As you can see, I was performing some very advanced data science, you know, some multiplication, five times three is 15. It's correct. And let's divide six and two gives us three, which also makes sense. Once I'm happy with the results, I can just save the notebook, go to the control panel, and stop my server. What this does is it frees up the resources that our notebook was using so that other data scientists and my team can reuse the same material. Now see, I've spent a lot of time on the project, and I want to share my materials, my notebooks, my resources with my team members. All I have to do now is follow a simple process to create a custom image and push it up onto some image registry. In our case, let's go with Quay. Once it's there, I'll submit a put request to the backing git repository for this deployment of Jupyter Hub. This is where we'll start to shift over from data scientist persona to the ops persona. What you're looking at right now is the Argo CD interface. This allows us to get a quick overview of deployed applications, the statuses, right? So if they're in sync, out of sync, unhealthy, whatever, and you know, basic actions that you can perform with them, syncing, deleting, generally perform not to delete them, but you know, you can do that if you need to. So let's head over to GitHub. Here we can see that a put request has come in to add a new image to Jupyter Hub. Going over the changes in GitHub, I can see that we're just telling it to reference another image stream file. Looks pretty straightforward. It's just referencing some image that is deployed on Quay or available on Quay. Now that I'm confident that the changes look like they're not going to break anything, I'm just going to merge the put request and delete the branch. Keep your git history clean. Heading back over to Argo CD and hitting refresh, we can see that the app is showing us out of sync now. This is due to that new put request coming in and indeed, if you click on the diff, we can see that it's just complaining about a specific image stream being missing. Let's rectify this, shall we? Click on sync and synchronize. The sync ran pretty quickly. It's a very basic diff and it's green now. Now we'll go over to Jupyter Hub and click on sign up with OpenShift. Go through. Now, if you look at the available images, we can see that there's a new image we can select called OCPCI analysis. Let's click, select it and click on start. Okay, interesting. So there's a new folder in my notebook environment. Let's check it out. Wow, we can see that this notebook pod came with a ton of different notebooks and introductions. This would be perfect for onboarding new team members quickly to our project. We've shown you how using GitOps tools such as Argo CD in tandem with operators like the Open Data Hub can improve productivity for both your off-streams and your data science streams. This way, you can really focus on the things that actually matter.


This paper proposes an intelligent data mining model to analyze, forecast and visualize energy time series to uncover various temporal energy consumption patterns. The model uses unsupervised data, clustering and frequent pattern mining analysis to identify appliance usage patterns from concurrent streams of data. Additionally, it performs Bayesian network prediction for energy usage forecasting. Experiments were conducted using real-world context-rich smart meter datasets, and the results showed that the proposed model outperforms other models at each stage while achieving combined accuracy of 81.82%, 85.9%, 89.58% for 25%, 50% and 75% of the training data size, respectively. Furthermore, the model was able to achieve energy consumption forecast accuracies of 81.89% for short-term, hourly, 75.88%, 79.23%, 74.74%, and 72.81% for day, week, month, and season, respectively.

like the race came out in that first inning when we're really aggressive in the count early. Did that kind of take you by surprise or hit you up, catch you off guard? Not really. I know they were kind of like trying to swing early. I mean I was right on saying I thought I threw a really good pitch and in on him and he put a good swing on it. But yeah they came out swinging really early. They were taking the splitter, they weren't really swinging at it. I mean that's a really tough lineup you know and sometimes I was behind the count and when you're behind the count and those kind of hitters like they're going to hit you pretty good. You rely heavily on your split and when you have that pitch it seems like you have success. Did you feel like that pitch was maybe just a bit off especially early on? I know that it was a little bit off. I wasn't really able to throw a first strike but I thought my other pitches were good you know. It was some weak contact you know. They just really good runners you know and they were safe. But yeah so like besides the splitter I had really good other pitches too. Aaron Moon said he thought that you deserved a better fate at the end of the day. What's your reaction to that statement? I mean I go out there you know and trying to do my best. That all day things don't go the way you want but it doesn't matter you got to still keep on fighting. You know you got to still there. I wasn't out of the game so you know I got to still we got a pitch. Hope things where I go different but the only thing I'm for sure just went out there and did my best. How hard is it to pitch against the same team five days later? I think that's my fourth time facing them this year. Something like that but I mean they're a really good team. Like I said the pretty good thing especially when you're facing them many times you know they kind of like see you around a little more and then than other teams so they're going to have to do it pretty good.


Yes, how about now? Okay. Yeah. So thank you very much for having me. Um, my name is, I am a research associate at the Institute of machine tools and factory management here at the technical university in Berlin. And we are also the coordinator of horizon 2020 project called of the next that tries to to develop a collaboration or strategic collaborations between companies and open and open hardware community members to be able to develop and product and services in an open source hardware. So, um, before going ahead and introducing the project or open next itself, I would like to start by a vision that that we all share together here as within the project, which, which is that the future is definitely going to be open and the product creation is not going to happen within company, but it's going to happen within a community setup. So today, uh, the industrial product creation or today, industrial product creation is still very risky. It's expensive. And also it's super, super, uh, not super sustainable. So, um, and this could be a direct consequences of how we develop product and, uh, of how we develop product nowadays. So there is a lot of over engineering, a lot of plant obsolescence and also there is a lot of lack of inclusivity. So still today, uh, development, designing and producing of products is happening behind, um, company walls, it's IP product, uh, product, uh, protected and it's also super far away from, from the main users, um, of this, uh, of those products. So it's developed in the company and the users are, are way far away from the development or the design, uh, process. On the other hand, um, thanks to the open source, uh, movement and also to access to technology users and community members does not want to set and receive products anyway, but they have the capability, the ability and the interest to be to, uh, to actually in the, to actually be part of this developing, um, and, uh, process. So the, the main idea of the product is that, is that now for small and medium sized enterprise, there is a big opportunity to just stop, uh, developing, uh, products and services indoors and moving ahead to, uh, join forces with all the great, uh, community members working there on open source and, and dissolve this company walls and move ahead to, um, a strategic collaboration that will benefit everybody, which is what we call company community collaboration that we, in open next are trying to crystallize. So few words today, um, project itself. So open it's a research project funded under the European Union, research and innovation program as part of horizon 2020 and it's, um, basically covered, uh, covering a cold, cold factories of the future. It's how product and services going to be developed in the future and the project itself bring together, um, 19 different partners from seven European countries. We're talking here research institutes and a university. Plus also, um, a lot of great enterprises, um, um, uh, platform providers and maker, uh, spaces plus SMEs who joined us together to be able to realize this vision of how this collaboration between companies and community could then influence the way we, uh, design, produce and also distribute the, uh, products, um, in the future. The project is three years. It started, uh, in September 2019 and we're continuing now at the final stage of the project moving ahead to November this year. So how we talk about a collaboration between companies and also open source hardware communities, but how is the whole setup then done or how is the whole vision. So the main idea is that we wanted to bring companies from to bring companies and then, uh, support them, unleash the potential of open source hardware, how to do that by working together in product development together with fab labs in community members. So all these three major players here, the companies, the fab lab and the community members community could be community of users of, uh, of, uh, of individuals. Um, and also could be the, um, the community of the company themselves. So we were trying to create what we call an, uh, an open source development ecosystem where those players would come together and then we would look how could this, uh, the development of products happening and how we could facilitate that. So open next is trying to see what are the needed components that needs to be established in order for this to happen. So we are looking into the needed ICT infrastructure for certain collaboration. What kind of business models then would make sense because companies would be scared if we talk about, uh, open source hardware as a way, uh, as a strategic way to make a business, but actually this is possible. So we're looking in researching into business models and facilitating, uh, of that as a viable, uh, as a viable way to produce products and services prototyping facilities, how makerspaces could join in and, um, and help, uh, facilitating a place where this community members and company could come together to do, uh, physical prototypes of these products and services. And then, of course, to support all that going on, there would be other aspects like, for example, uh, collaboration design processes, licensing, uh, the topic of licensing, the topic of documentation as its key for, uh, open source, um, hardware. So the project is set up in a way that we will do this. Um, we'll do what we call action, uh, research. So there would be, uh, um, uh, specific pilot cases, which each makerspace will, uh, in open next has parted with, uh, uh, with, uh, companies and then we created what we called open next clusters. So in four, um, different city within the European Union, a makerspace will, uh, will be, uh, as a hub and then join forces with two, um, different SMEs, the, uh, the scope of open next focus on, uh, consumer electronics, built to order furniture and also, um, um, sustainable mobility. So this cluster itself, the makerspace would help the SMEs define a specific product or service that they want to do together along open next. And we have run six different pilots from, um, um, mid of 2020 until end of 2021 in, uh, Copenhagen with maker in Amsterdam with, uh, uh, as a fab lab and also in Berlin. And just sorry to interrupt, but then I seem to have lost your video and lost my video. Uh, but could you still see my presentation? No, that's quite, uh, problematic. Let me, I will try to, uh, re-share. He's too. How about now? Yes. Yes, you're back. Thank you. Oh, right. Um, sorry for the interruption. And then, um, uh, after those cases were studied and the results were concluded, we have expanded since the beginning of this year by adding another cluster in, in, in Vienna. And the, to validate the findings and, uh, of this phase, we have started in January by inviting new 12 SMEs to join up and next to join up and next four clusters in order to see, um, just to see if all the tools and all the methods that has been developed, uh, can be validated through this phase. So we started now going, uh, from January to June was 12 interesting SMEs that are going on now hard and strong. So in this part of the presentation, I would just also want to talk a bit about what is the type of project that has been developed within each cluster. So starting with the Berlin clusters, the prototypes for, uh, for Europe, who are also with us in, um, in this session has helped two companies. I will start with Sono Motors. Sono Motors is a self, um, charging electric car developed by a German company here in Germany and the main idea they partnered with us because they wanted to work with their own community and personalize those, uh, those cars. So they want community members to come in, uh, and then the design specific personalized item within the car. This was done, um, together with prototypes where an open call was open community members share their design. They were invited to come into Sono Motors to prototypes and six interesting prototypes emerge from, from, uh, from that also prototypes has helped open site, the pocket science lab from open tech, um, uh, to be able to move from, uh, an early product to a product that could be actually commercialized. Um, the three upcoming sessions are going to talk a lot more about how this collaboration with the, with the, with the community member of folks Asia, I would say, um, has, uh, has emerged through the open next and I also be around for, uh, for that moving on to the next cluster. Uh, the back, um, the back society also had two very interesting cases of soda, which is an IOT company who was interested in developing an air quality sensor for the city of Amsterdam, but wanted to do so together with community members. So the collaboration that we're, uh, that, uh, the targeted community of concern. So people who are actually going later to utilize this sensor to come and work together with the fab lab and so that in order to, uh, discuss what kind of, uh, design would be accepted. What kind of a technology would be accepted? And this is key for such a company to be able to move ahead with the development of a sensors that later on is going to be adopted by this community. On the other hand, fiction factory. It's a very interesting SMEs that wanted to join us in, uh, in, in, uh, in open next to be able to utilize open source, uh, to be able to utilize open source in order to find a sustainable way to deal with their CNC with machinery. So they wanted to work together with the community and develop open source hardware, uh, different products that could be actually generated or developed out of this waste material and vast society help, uh, moving ahead with that. Moving to the Copenhagen, uh, cluster maker also had quite an interesting collaboration with, um, with X, Y, Z cargo and sticker. I will share some of the findings. So sticker is a bill to order furniture company who actually who is committed to the open source movement and believe that open source is not, um, is not scary. It's actually the way they want to do, uh, business and within open next day, uh, they worked at the last desk, which is, um, uh, designed for this assembly desk and they wanted their community member to design blockings and be able to make modular designs out of your desk. So you get all the documentations of the desk and then you move ahead, uh, as a designer by, by actually talking about how could you, what, what, what, what are your needs and then design your own log ins. They opened this call. They are so committed to the open source. They have their own, uh, platform, uh, for open development with it, with their community of designers. And then they openly shared the designs with them and then also moving ahead. Uh, a lot of designs, uh, they, they, they did a design competition. A lot of, a lot of designs came in and they took it to the next level. Um, and having prototyping sessions within the company, but also within the, uh, the maker spaces. So specific. The community members were invited in to be able to realize the designs that they want. And then eventually there was a scheme of how could this design then be featured in their website. And how could then the community benefit from specific revenue streams, streams for the design that would, uh, would be sold. Uh, the other interesting case was from XYZ cargo, which is, um, cargo bikes that the company wanted to develop add ons to just have different features and different functions for this cargo by cargo bikes. The company is based in Hamburg. They, uh, wanted to be able to just, um, uh, create a community of designer and develop and be fully committed to open source hardware when it comes to the design of add ons. The way the collaboration went is through an open call. They received 70 different, uh, uh, inputs regarding, um, designs contribution. And then this was moved from an online, uh, collaboration with the community to a real life collaborations where one to one meetings has happened until, um, specific, uh, designs were selected for further, um, for further, um, prototyping. So now, uh, so during the open next there, there would be an add-on that will add to the bike, uh, that shapes a workshop, uh, bike and also a food bike and also a music, um, uh, kind of, uh, bike. The most interesting part of, uh, of, um, of, um, XYZ cargo is that from the very beginning they believed in, um, in, in, in the open source movement and also they believe that there should be a payback, a way to pay back the contributor, the contributors of, uh, the contributors from the community members and a lot of discussions went into what would be the best way to also, uh, payback not only, um, once, but instantly as this design would be, um, moved forward. So we consider it also a very, very interesting, um, case. Um, as of the, of these cases has happened, the makerspaces gain more competence and we moved ahead by bringing along 12 new SMEs that started also on their own individual, uh, projects from January and they are continuing on a lot of interesting cases who are, um, looking into, um, uh, build to order furniture. Also, uh, interesting community members like one of the cases is, uh, developing or trying to, uh, develop, um, a device for blind and visually impaired people to just also, uh, on a bigger mission to bring them into makerspaces, developing and 3D printing their own, um, uh, their own device. A lot of interesting projects in the direction of, uh, refrigeration, um, for in remote areas. This is also taking place in, uh, in maker. Uh, we are also, um, making, um, an event in the end of June, um, that will demonstrate all the 18 cases, including the 12 new cases that are taking place now. And, um, the project will continue. All the, um, the findings, the tools are going to be documented as part of the book that will be, um, uh, published later. We're also trying to, uh, to established, um, um, to established, uh, a way for makerspaces to come together to learn from this experience so that they could be open source developing, um, labs and could help further SMEs. Uh, take the steps and, uh, join, um, the, uh, see the opportunity in, uh, collaborating together with community members and benefiting, uh, from, um, and, and, and actually contributing and benefiting from the open source, uh, movement to know more about us, uh, check out website. Also at our project hub at our partners, um, uh, website, our, uh, our partners platform, wiki factory, and, uh, we will be publishing information soon about our demonstration day end of June, um, in Berlin. And I hope that you could also join us there. Thank you very much and open for.


An alternative approach to defect trapped PT single sites on a semiconductor is reported. Here, protruding PT sites inhibit charge recombination and cause a tip effect which enhances H2, evolution yield rates with minimal co-catalyst loading.

Andre Gomez for me was the worst player on the pitch by a country mile. If Tom Davis put in that performance it's 100 times worse from the Devon Meltdown on Twitter. But Andre Gomez put that performance in. There's no Shabd saying he ain't good enough for everything today. I haven't seen one. Wherever's Tom Davis, I think he'd get absolutely slaughtered for that performance today. That was disgraceful from Gomez in the first half. In three minutes he gave away the ball three times, leading to three Southampton counterattacks. Not good enough. Their first goal wore prows, hit to shot from miles out, but you look at it and the defenders are not closing them down. They're just inviting them to shoot. And when you do that you're asking for trouble. Their second goal is absolutely crazy, but the way they play it through is embarrassing. And it comes off Dean, and just rolls in. I'm not sure if the keeper could have done better. I really don't care anymore. But they just played it through so easily. We got a goal at the end, so it gets men not on. And we all knew it men not on. We're not very good at scoring late goals late on. But there you have it. We get beat to Southampton. Probably go on to whoever we play next, beat them and then lose the week after. We're just a very inconsistent team. And I think it's just going to be another not in season for Everton, which is called a season for Everton. Basically, it's just going to be one of them where we don't really get anywhere. And the last season of any relevance for Everton was the minus for a season. So there you have it. It's a built in progress, of course. Another thing the manager probably shouldn't make changes, be more proactive instead of reactive. It's the exact same as what happened to Brighton and that needs to change. Southampton to Everton won.


The first two episodes of The Lord of the Rings, Rings of Power, that's a title, are out now on Amazon Prime. Let's talk about it briefly. This is a beautiful show. It's easily the prettiest thing I've ever seen, and I get to wake up and look at the mirror at this guy every day. A close second in beauty, though, is Galadriel. Wow, what a knockout. There's also black people in this, so. Ho ho ho! Things changed in the world, and maybe the tone of the skin isn't the biggest deal. Yeah, these are things people are upset about. It's too woke. It's not woke enough. There's not enough representation. There's too much representation. You know what I think?   I love it.  There is absolutely craft on display here. Absolutely, heart was put into this show to make it the best they could. I implore you to give it a chance at least, and you might be pleasantly surprised like I was.
