Why do some Ravens fans give up on everything as soon as the team makes one mistake? Dujino Stone, Nigel Warrior, Ardarius, Washington, and Brandon Stevens pose more of a threat to Deshaun Elliott or Chuck Clark. With the unfortunate situation that the LJ fought injury is, should the Ravens bring in KJ Wright to replace him? Please and much more on this episode of NFL Questions from Subscribers.

Please and much more on this episode of NFL Questions from Subscribers. As soon as they make a mistake, I think part of it comes from them being spoiled because as Ravens fans, we have been spoiled. We haven't been spoiled rotten like a lot of Patriots fans, you know, anyway, but Ravens fans, they are certainly one of the more successful franchises over the years, especially in such a short amount of time to and with Ravens fans. I think since Ravens fans are so used to the Ravens being so successful, especially recently, but they're so used to them being successful through the majority of the flakko years and obviously having reached the highest high under flakko and then with Lamar them being just extremely successful, like extremely successful during the regular season playoffs still got to work on that. But I just that's what I think it comes from because they're so used to success. So when there's a hiccup and when there's a mistake when something, it doesn't go as smoothly than a lot of people are like, Oh man, you know what? I'm tired of this. I just want to over with. I want this guy fired. I want this guy out of here. And that's how it can be now again. That's only for some people because there's other people who when they talk about somebody possibly being relieved of their duties, they talk about the Ravens going to diff in a different direction, whether it be with front office people or somebody as a player, then there's some people that they notice patterns. They notice patterns and it's things that they don't want to continue to repeat themselves. So they've thought this thing through. They've analyzed it. They've watched it. They've criticized it. They've went over so many times in their minds and they've watched games and they've watched patterns and they don't want history to repeat itself in certain areas of the team. So far as the ones that you were referring to, yeah, I think it's from just being spoiled. Next question came from my boy, Jamari J. He said, I ain't graven. If Queen continues to play well, do we move the green dot back to the linebackers? I think for sure. I think Queen is getting that next year for sure. Reason I think that he didn't get it this year was because last year was an off season. And when I say off season, I don't mean the opposite of being in the season, but I mean the season last year was just off. So I think they will definitely be making that move probably next year to where he'll have a better understanding of the defense and he'll have more experience and he'll have had a full regular off season and then another season under his belt. So yeah, I think he definitely gets that green dot. And then he also said, do you think Geno Stone, Ardarius, Washington, Nigel Warrior and Brandon Stevens are more of a threat to Deshaun Elliott or Chuck Clark? I would say neither. I would say neither because Deshaun Elliott and Chuck Clark, their jobs are not on the line or anything like that. It's not like they're barely hanging on to being starters or anything like that. And they have far more experience than all of those guys, all of them. So they're the clear cut starters. So no, these guys don't pose a threat to any one of them. Now, if we talk in next year, next year, things could change quite a bit. Deshaun Elliott, he's in the last year of his deal for Chuck Clark. I forget where he is on his deal, either he has one or two years left. I want to say, I want to say one, but I'm not 100% sure. So I can't say. But either way, next year, things could change. So we don't know if Deshaun Elliott is going to stay or go or depends. We don't know if Chuck Clark is going to stay or go. It just all depends. So then these guys, especially Brandon Stevens, that's when he may be in competition for a starting spot at the safety position. So hopefully this year, he pushes those guys to the max. And then next year, whether Deshaun Elliott stays or leaves or Chuck Clark stays or leaves, whatever happens at the safety position. Hopefully Brandon Stevens, he makes it really hard on everybody. Next question came from my boy, Lord Valley. He said, what to do Brody? She boy, Valley haven't come through in a while, but man, I'm happy for your success for real. I've been faithfully watching this January 2020 before the playoffs and loving it. I appreciate that. Appreciate you rocking with us and sticking it out, man. I said I grabbed Madden last night on the Xbox one and it feels the same as usual. Can't wait to play on next gen and get all the new extra features. Immediately I started a franchise mode with the 75 man roster because I've never been so excited and thrilled about 25 extra players. I know aren't going to make the team. But I feel you with Intel every day, I've grown to appreciate our preseason roster for the simple fact that every player is going to be going all out because they want to be attached to the legend of Lamar Super Bowl team. And I have never, ever seen this before or really even noticed it in NFL media.  All right, shout out to Madden 22. Maybe with that first update, maybe, but we'll see. Anyway, he's in out of my question or really statement. I picked up for free agent offensive linemen, but when it came to making cuts, there were about 10 and I was really up. I had to let go or send some people to the practice squad. I didn't do any trading or nothing like that. Just a pure generic roster. And the fact that we have 10 solid corners, 10 front seven studs. It's almost like, man, do I shorten the offensive line or do I shorten the wideout to keep a stack defense just in case injury occurs? And just to be real with it or do I keep balanced numbers? You know, it's crazy. Do you believe that come cut day that the staff are really going to be scratching their heads and frustration of not letting go of so much talent or practice squad and players, you know, are going to be hot on the market and have great careers. Season going to be fire. Hold on tight. Keep it clean. Appreciate that, man. Yeah, I don't envy them at all. They are going to have to make some very, very tough decisions to where they really assemble the best 53 man roster that they possibly can. And something to keep in mind, too, that just because it's the 53 man roster for week one, well, for week one, it doesn't mean that that's going to be the 53 man roster for week one because Ravens, they get tricky with it. They do some manipulating with it. They are very just, they've been doing this thing for a while, too, because they'll have some people make the roster and be like, oh, I didn't think they were going to make it. And then that person may go on injured reserve. That person may be released. That person may be this. So they work that roster, man. So the roster that you see, the 53 that you see, when the roster is initially established, it might not be and probably won't be the 53 that you see going in a week one. Next question also came from my boy, Jamar. He said, I ain't gravy. And I feel like what people haven't noticed is the Ravens wide receiver position group is supposed to be a battle through preseason, not just the camp. And when Trace went out, the Ravens changed the offense to a Lamar-like style and Huntley has been thrown to only Oliver and Williams on check-downs. If Roman doesn't take big shots against the Washington football team, what are we going to know besides Hollywood, Watkins and Bateman? And Wallace and Dove, they've been pretty quiet in camp, had a few catches from Trace and one from Huntley. Pro Shae hasn't been trending unless in camp and before games. Moore, Victor and Kane need this last game to show something, even though Kane has shown promises in camp. Oh, still, this is certainly a lot right here. Yeah, with Duvenay and Pro Shae, most of Pro Shae can approach it. He's been the talk of all offseason and training camp. And my guy, Bio Lawson, man, he made some great points.  He said with the Ravens, something that he's always noticed is that there's always somebody where it's just all this hype surrounding his player in preseason, everybody going crazy about him and training camp. They are the training camp hero training camp warrior that they just been killing in training camp. But then when the game comes on, stuff gets real quiet. You don't hear anything from him. And with Pro Shae, it could be cut to lack of opportunities. I've heard some people say one of the games he's getting open a lot. And I heard some people say in other games, he wasn't getting open at all. I've heard it all. But there are those players every year. And then he also talked about it on the flip side. There's also some players that you don't really hear anything about. You don't hear anything about them. But then when the lights are on, when it's game time or they go crazy, like McCrary, like Williams. So we'll see how this whole thing really impacts the roster because it's going to be very, very tricky with Tyler Wallace. It's going to be tricky with him because I'm not sure where he's going to be on a depth chart because he's got a lot in front of him. And as far as Watkins in Hollywood with the deep shots, really just with the offense, we we're not really going to be able to really see the Ravens offense until week one because that's when everybody should be back. Sammy Watkins, I don't even you know what really before we won in this preseason game because I've been I don't know how the Ravens are going to play this preseason game because I was for sure thinking that Lamar is going to play in week last week against the Panthers. I was 100 percent sure like, oh, yeah, there ain't no doubt in my mind that he going to play at least like two drives. Nope, nothing, nothing. So if he's going to play in the last preseason game, I don't know. I don't know how they're going to work this whole thing out. But we'll see. But we're not going to really get a glimpse of the full offense in preseason. We're not. So as far as the deep shots, I wouldn't really even be too concerned with that because remember, it's been Tyler Huntley playing. It's been Trace McSawley playing. It has not been Lamar has not been Hollywood. It has not been Watkins. Obviously hasn't been Bateman, but it hasn't been the regular guys that are that are going to be out there. So the fact that they haven't taken many deep shots, I wouldn't really be overly concerned about it. And just with the whole offense period, I wouldn't be overly concerned about it. I would be a little bit concerned about it with the offensive line since more starters have been out there. But hey, check this out when you go from week one to week two, you see the improvements in offensive line, especially in run blocking. They added another start out there week two with Kevin Zitler. And you saw all the holes that were getting created and whatnot. Offensive line, they just played better. So it's just going to take more time. But I can't really overanalyze the Ravens offense right now in preseason. Next question came from Yahoo. He said, what's up, engraving and think even clean. Grateful to have you repping the Ravens like no other could. Oh, I appreciate it. That's a good thing or bad thing because like no other could. Others could do much better and they do. But I appreciate it, man. He said, do you notice that NFL Network never shows Ravens preseason games when they have quadruple games to show? But no Ravens. Am I overreacting? I mean, it is what it is, man. It is what it is. It ain't no big deal. As long as you get to watch it, we get to watch it. That's all that matters.  They got that first Monday night football game. And then the following week, they got a Sunday night football game. And then three weeks later, they got a Monday night football game. So yeah, people, whether they like it or not, they're going to be seeing a lot of Ravens. This next question or questions will be a blended question. It's going to be the last episode. On this episode of NFL questions from subscribers, because it comes from my guy Augusto V, Bullet A-trex and Chris P from the West Wing. So first, we'll start off with Augusto. He said, yo, engraving, I hope you and your family are doing amazing and staying safe. Appreciate you. Thank you. And yes, we are. Thank you for that. So I got a question regarding LJ Ford's injury. We all know he's a good linebacker whose absence needs to be addressed in the form of adding a solid starter or backup. My question is, should the Raven sign KJ Wright? He's a nice veteran free agent who could help the Ravens out for a year. So the linebacker room can stay as good as possible. At this point, free agents have immensely dropped their market value and KJ is not too old. He's 32. And even though he isn't the best, he's a really solid player who is there at the right place at the right time. Combined with his experience, I think he could help the linebacker room and shout out to Team Keep It Clean. One love y'all and love you engraving. I'll send y'all a hug. Hey, we send you a hug right back. They go right there, man. But now I appreciate it Augusto. So KJ Wright has been a popular name recently. Now let's go to my guy bullet A-Track's question. He said, ain't Graven love the videos. Appreciate you. With LJ Ford, unfortunately getting injured, we might need a veteran linebacker to be on the roster. What do you think about signing KJ Wright, former linebacker of the Seattle Seahawks? So with KJ Wright, I this, like I said, this question obviously came up a little bit. And yes, he is a free agent right now. Why his name is not on the list of free agent linebackers. I'm not sure, but he's out there. And that is a very interesting name. We know that he made plenty of plays for the Seahawks back in his day. I don't mean to say back in his day, like he's like some old man, old man. But he definitely did his thing, man. He did his thing. And we wouldn't need him to come in.  He ain't got to do. He would not have to do that. He wouldn't have to be this all pro linebacker, anything like that. No, but with his experience, he could help that room a lot and bring a lot of what LJ Ford did. He wouldn't have to be the fastest.   Be a solid contributor and just be somebody that will be ready. And he would be somebody that will provide that experience that a lot of our linebackers just don't have. And somebody that could come in in a bind, come in in a pinch and help out. So with right because right now, a linebacker in group is very, very young. I think Chris Board is the most experienced linebacker that we have because it's Chris Boyd, Christian Welch and obviously, Patrick Queen and Malik Harrison, Tara Lockup. Not sure what his status is. I know he's still hurt and he isn't practicing. He hasn't practiced in like forever. So we'll see what happens with him. But KJ Wright would be a move that I would not be mad at at all. Would he have to start with? Would that mean that Malik Harrison wouldn't be the start anymore? No, it wouldn't mean that. It doesn't have to mean that. But it would mean that you would have somebody again. Stay ready so you ain't got to get ready. Ravens were ready, but LJ Ford unfortunately, he got hurt. And now he's out for the year. So again, stay ready so you ain't got to get ready. You could bring in a veteran guy who got some great experience. And I think this will be a good move. Now, somebody else who somebody else who was suggested, let's go to my guy, Chris from the West Wing. His question, well, his part of this question. He said, Missing Raven, I'll keep it short this time. With the unfortunate injury to LJ Ford, do you think that EDC would immediately sign a free agent linebacker since that will grant him time to evaluate that signing against the current roster of linebackers? Or do you think that he will wait until the final roster cut down on August 31st and look for a roster cut casualty? Or will he do both? Ooh, that is a great question. Hmm. Wow. See, and this is why I love Team Keep It Clean so much because we could all be thinking one way. Somebody may have presented something one way, but then somebody else comes in and they throw a curveball and they present something a completely different way.  But I think that I would think and this is my thinking. Obviously not in the brain of EDC, but I would think that they will want to get somebody if they're going to bring in somebody, which I think they will because John Harbaugh gave that talk today in his presser. Shout out to Carter laughing in the background. He watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But anyway, in John Harbaugh's presser today, he was like, oh, and I'm recording this on August 23rd. But he was like, oh, yeah, we're confident in our guys that we got. I was thinking, OK, yeah, you're definitely bringing in somebody now. When you say that, because you got to give a boost to your guys.  You got to let your guys know, hey, we rocking with y'all. We love y'all. And we really we got confidence in y'all. We got faith in y'all. I know y'all got it. That's hard about telling them. But then at the same time, it's like, oh, well, yeah, we're still going to bring in somebody just to give us a little boost. So I would think that they will want to bring in somebody now rather than later. Now, because if you wait till later, you could bring in somebody. They can still do that thing. But either way, I feel like there's not really pressure on the Ravens to do. It's not like, oh, man, we got to sign a linebacker right here right now. It's not like they have to. I think it would make them a little more comfortable going into the season if they did now. But yeah, they could end up waiting because like with a guy with KJ Wright, who we obviously discussed a little bit earlier, he's out there. Well, if he's out there again, I checked the free agent list. I didn't see his name, but I see people's talking about it. But I got to double check that.  So will anything change from now until another week? Maybe, but maybe not. Probably not because it's going to be a lot that like the free agent, the pool of talent and free agent is going to get in free agency is going to get very crowded very soon because it's going to be a lot of guys getting added to being free agents because it's a lot of cuts are going to have to be made because right now we're going through baby cuts. Is this little baby cuts is baby cuts was last week with just five people. Baby cuts this week with just five people. But then next week is going to be the huge cuts. So that's going to be that's that's going to be something right there. So I feel like with Eric Dacosta and them, I feel like it's really no pressure on them. Like they could make a move now, but they don't have to. They could just end up waiting to have more of a selection of people. Or they could be like, you know what, let's go ahead and make a move right now. Let's get this thing done. So I appreciate you bringing that perspective to the conversation. And he said, by the way, it looks like Josh Bynes is about to be a cut casualty from the Panthers. And Patrick Owasu is currently a free agent who was on in your reserve last year. See, look at that. I like how he said that. And he didn't say anything else. That was it. He said, sincerely, Chris P. from the West Wing. That was it. He just left it at that. He didn't say, hey, let's sign them. Let's grab them. Let's pick them up. He didn't say he's interested if they become free. Well, if Josh Bynes becomes a free agent, nope. He ain't say none of that. He just said, oh, looking like Josh Bynes about to get cut peanuts out there. That's it. So with Josh Bynes, I don't think they would do a reunion. But then when you think about it, it could make sense. And again, he wouldn't be a starter. He would not be a starter. And the thing with veterans, when you sign a veteran linebacker, like a veteran veteran, you, depending on depending on your team, but with the Ravens, if they were to sign a veteran linebacker right now, same thing we talked about with KJ Wright, they wouldn't have to come in and be the starter.  Now, one thing about Josh Bynes, he is obviously very familiar with the defense. He's familiar with the team, familiar with the defense. So that would give him a leg up. And when peanut, too, oh, peanuts, same way, same way. But with peanut, I mean, he left for more opportunity and whatnot with the Jets, it just hasn't obviously didn't work out. We'll see what happens with even with CJ Moseley. I don't even know what the status of CJ Moseley. I have not heard anything about CJ Moseley recently, man. But man, it's just been it's been rough for both of them. I know CJ Moseley. He got hurt the first year, I think. And then I think he got he opted out last year. And I don't know what his status is right now. Um, but that familiar familiarity with peanut and Josh Bynes, that would help them, um, but I just, I don't see the Ravens bringing back either one, especially peanut. Oh, I know we said we were logging off for real quick. Shout out to my guy Ravens, eight lead on Twitter because he brought up some nice little information, some little tidbits about KJ Wright. He said he started 140 out of 144 games. So he pretty much started everything. Eight playoff appearances. He's been a pro bowler, two Superbowl appearances, obviously one to one Superbowl with the Seahawks.  He's 24 and 15 versus all of our NFC opponents this year. 6-0 versus the Vikings, 3-1 versus the Bears, 3-1 versus the Lions. Now that that part is like he obviously has had success against those teams being on the Seahawks and whatnot. But the Ravens, now he'll be on a completely different team, completely new system, if the Ravens even brought him in. But my favorite part about everything that he stated were the Sammy Watkins approach. It reminds me of Sammy Watkins because, again, the two Superbowl appearances, the one Superbowl win, the eight playoff appearances. So when we talk about experience, we talk about experience. He brings that experience to that group. And when you think about Sammy Watkins and think about Ravens receivers, they don't have that experience. They got playoff experience, but that's it. And just a minimal amount of it. But when you bring Sammy Watkins, he had playoff and Superbowl experience. So that's important and that's big. And we got like a lot of guys all around the team that have playoff and Superbowl experience, special teams. Justin Tucker, Sam Cook, Superbowl experience in the secondary. Jimmy Smith, Anthony Levine, Superbowl experience, defensive line, Kaleas Campbell, Purnell McPhee, Derek Wolf, Superbowl experience. Well, at linebacker, very young. And again, it's nothing against him, obviously, but he would bring that experience that could really just fine tune them that much where he could be like, hey, well, this is what we should do. Maybe it might be better if we did this or maybe this would help us help our game that much more. This could really help us get to that next level. So that experience can make the world of a difference. All right, I'm out now for real. I love you.

All right, it's day 12 of the advent of code. Sorry for that redo. I forgot to record But now we're recording and we are ready We are ready for day 12. We're almost halfway through so tomorrow that we do task 1 will be halfway through but These are getting tougher and tougher So let's get started right away, right? Let's see day 12 Okay, so yesterday we were doing some Some monkeys. We have to do some modular arithmetic. What are we doing today? You try to handle it. Okay. Oh, right. So we fell into the hole. Hi, little Lanny My biggest fan is here. That's all I need to do these streams. Anyway So we fell into the river. There was a rope bridge and then We had to repair our device And then you walk into the forest and the monkeys attacked us Quite an eventful journey so far What are we trying to do now? Okay The river probably must be too little to get a decent signal You ask a device for a height mouse in the running area Seek a locust seller with a slowest elevation Bs and X loads and so on to the highest elevation said Also include a high mark for your composition S and the location That you get a back signal E the composition S has a location A Location that you get the best signal E has elevation said You'd like to reach E But for to save energy you should do it in as few steps as possible During each step you can move exactly one square up down left or right to avoid needing to get out your climbing gear The elevation of the destination square can be at most one higher than the elevation of your current square that is if your current elevation is M and You could step to elevation and but not to elevation and Okay, for example You can move exactly one square up down left or right Okay, so we just kind of compute the graph and then we find a path What is the use as you're going to move from your current position to the location that you get the best signal okay? Let's just say start with the example input Example now are we also surrounded by a's in the So if I understand it correctly We can get we can get We can go from a That's okay. Let's just We can go from Avoid needing to get out your climbing gear the elevation of the distance square can be at most how and higher Okay, so it doesn't have to be much lower than yellow so we can always go down But we can only we cannot go up so it's a to said now let's read the input. There's gonna be string Let's just go There's gonna be no reading put a Put a what is the So what my question is what is the elevation of the destination square right? Okay, that's just Okay, we're gonna do read file We're gonna go lines Okay, let's just not have this to be in this is gonna be listen to means Okay and we're gonna say where Let's just look at GCI Okay, so let's say that we can always go one higher up Which is map from in Just Let's just see what this does for the example GCOD12 Okay, so these looks like kind of like kind of connected component so I can go anywhere from here to here Okay, okay, let's not worry too much let's just have it be and Let's make this into an int map of int I want to have this be an or maybe I could do like an unboxer a GG array a pencil using array. This is not good Okay, let's see now. I want to connect convert this to to array Or like a an int map of int map maybe okay to array and Let's Or did it out in this so you're gonna map sit with in the eye and the row, so it's gonna be the Row number and then the row to sip Okay, now let's say print okay, so now we have a kind of coordinate list and now we are going to Do a You're gonna convert this into a graph Haskell graph Build a graph from a list of nodes you need to identify keys and list of keys Okay, and now so what are the connections here? So it can go from lower to higher. We can always go from lower to higher. I feel like if we connect the whole thing So we can go from a to C And and okay, we cannot go from a to C We can go from a to B, but we cannot just like join together completely Everything so it would be very nice. We could just be okay. This is a here You can just kind of join it together, but we can't because Say f of s Well, so we're gonna have s be the So this is gonna be the highest number Let's just do it a thousand and f of e is going to be zero And f hc is gonna be Rom emm see Just so we know where we're going and can always Go from anywhere to the edge, right? We don't need that for the edge. Okay, but so let's see here Okay, now let's construct the graph from this Okay, maybe we can just to get the Yeah, okay, let's make this into like the agency graph Okay, so we let's see here XO neighbors and map So we're taking in bad we're taking the coordinate int comma int And we return List of in comma int equals okay, so we're gonna say here graph equals so we're gonna say Yeah, maybe F map over minus one the chord is a list of now we can't maybe and Okay, so now we're gonna go here I is equal to I actually is graph Y and then X look at back come on why Okay, we take whatever gets out of this and we're gonna go F map Why Had maybe Okay, look up chords map, maybe and then we're gonna look up the XI well is equal to Graph map, maybe and then filter and then we have the core Or Is less than or equal to XI valve map, maybe chords map, maybe Okay, we had to map maybe Okay, and then we do So this is the like the connected group neighbors of the ground Okay, so to array map and print to array now. I'm gonna say a not map and print. I'm gonna say print Neighbors Let neighbors Zero comma zero just to see what it says for that Okay, and it's saying that Zero zero is a neighbor. Okay, so we might be be not equal to Say it's here come one is a neighbor and we can just go up down left and right Okay, let's not do it this clever way. Let's just say We're not gonna do it. This is so cleverly. We're just gonna say Mine is one comma zero This down one comes in this left right Down Okay, so we can go to the left and to the right. Okay. Okay, let's see to array Reading but so we're not going to do it like this. We're gonna say actually We're gonna let's find s we have to find s. Okay Is equal to We do have the adjacency graph That's just this neighbor stuff. Okay, and we're going to like breadth first search We need to know where we're going and where we're starting Okay, so let's do Foldle folder with Okay, so let's say I am dark There we go f map a find with default and so it doesn't work. I'll just do a zip Okay, let me just fold over this one. Yeah, then you and s x comma s y So let's just s x comma That's why just it was fine. I can just map over the axis Okay Just I so let's say map find index map find index of 1000 find index Just s y is equals map find index Okay, now this one is gonna be s y is equal to Maybe just s y and so this is going to be the column is equal to this add Just s y it's going to be at only one place And then just s x is equal to Just s y this is Okay, and the same for the e s x s y comma ex Okay, now So it doesn't find anything that's equal to zero. That's funny. So this one will work. Let's see just s y Get me Okay, and now I know the Start and I don't want to go. Okay, and I'm like going to two five Thinking of it. So this is the s y. So this is the uh, maybe this is the s x Yeah, this is the s x Ex e y five two. Okay. Hello. What are you programming? We're doing a bit of code They we're about to do breath first search So how do we do breath first breath first search? Okay, we have the We have a graph Okay, we have the List of those we've been to We have the Cube target you here and what will it return? It returns Bfs graph Visited equals So Bfs graph visited The empty list This is empty list and then a q. So this is gonna be next up And q's Okay, now where n equals neighbors graph q Okay, now first of all If q equals target Then we just return q Bfs graph visited q q s Target equals. Okay. Now we're not doing anything. We're just adding bfs So I'm missing some kind of parent here, right? Okay, and now filter set dot member. Okay, so we take the neighbors We filter out the ones who are in visited visited Now we need to so how remember the path bfs graph Does this work? I don't think so se bfs g Visited is q is s Target is e Let's actually do it like this If there is a path from this one set of incumbency Either we kind of continue because either we kind of found it or we stop And then case of left Yeah, because this path is not correct, right?  What if I just do ns here If it doesn't find it And do bfs graph Be prime prime qs Now, let's just check if the neighbors thing is correct. Okay print neighbors Let's say print the neighbors of this one. This one should be zero one two three four five Point neighbors g 1.5 Five is not an element of the map really Uh, so here we get 1.5 and that should be giving me So I'll be looking up I'm always looking up x and then so the neighbors of 0.5. Yes 1.6 Let's not worry about the visited here. Let's see here Visit it a target. Okay. So if q is equal To target graph visited q q is certain member But it should never be added to there. Let's not do that Okay, I might need a kind of a I need a parent map here try a Incoming to Procure the visited I have the parent map and I have a q Okay, now bfs And this is just going to return maybe that bfs equals bfs graph bfs prime graph target And I need the starting point as well. Okay, so we don't actually look at the graph Start target Now we're going to change the graph Return this maybe path. Okay. No, this is going to be bfs prime Of a set.empty map.empty So we're going to map maybe give Start as a initial queue or bfs prime Okay, so if I have If I have an empty queue Then I return nothing Thank you. I return nothing Okay, let's see if I have a queue then return nothing bfs a If I have a path like if I have that queue is equal to target Then I will reconstruct the This is a parent reconstruct path and queue target reconstruct for parents Just path Okay, reconstruct path parents start and I'm going to say here We're going to be the current Is a big node and we're going to have queue as a target and start reconstruct path a parent Reck path need this so Reck path a And I need that here Reck path a cn equals a cn n column Reck a cn k cn equals queue equals a queue Reck path cn otherwise is a c n and then Reck path a let's start The first argument of Reck path bfs prime has the type set income a So this is the visit it it has the type it has the queue Now Reck path here. I think I just messed this up Okay, so if we found it we just reconstruct the path Okay That's kind of the base case Okay bfs prime Visited parent us equals Don't do a Do the same neighbors Okay, and this is going to be Neighbors graph so we can find the neighbors of the graph queue we take away those are not members the ones we've not seen before Really we map dot update and we could do a map dot insert prime equals full the hell map we we can do the new parent Okay, and Also, we built a new parents map bfs v dot insert vq fbs prime There's one to work And see what the parents are here at the end. This is nothing on the zero zero one point zero Okay, so it went from zero zero to one zero And here if this one does not have any neighbors into way too long just this Easy path for a search. I feel we're always kind of inserting into the map actually add to the queue zero zero one zero So I explore is a zero zero and then explore is a One zero and here a And then explore zero one Let's see trace show qns Okay, so zero zero it looks at one zero and zero one Okay, here's here. Let's add one zero and zero one. Yes The one zero looks at two zero Okay, zero one Okay, it's already been here and it's already been here. Why does it not get there? Okay, zero zero So I was looking at one zero finds two zero Uh, and then zero one it just has no neighbors There's something wrong here Hmm Okay, uh So it's a for one point zero. It's a zero zero. It's a neighbor And then one one is a neighbor To do zero is a neighbor and one one is a neighbor Uh, this one should not be messing equal to xiv xiv minus one I think right so, uh xiv v is less than equal to xiv plus one Now we're at two four and it says two five and it's a Okay, and let's I think this one is not correct. Okay. We look at two point four a lot of times Okay, so two So this is our what this is Okay, a neighbor is one point zero Yeah, so the neighbors are one point zero is two point over We don't want to go back to the start. Yeah Okay, so zero zero has one point zero these two okay Then one point zero from one point zero we can go to Two point zero or one point one. Yes Do we zero okay for and then from zero comma one We go to one one or two comma two Okay, then from two Two point zero we cannot go to q but we can go to Um, uh, huh. I'd say we can't go to Yeah, I think I got it correct again. Sorry This one should be a y and x then this should be y and x and this This should be y and I don't know. So this one should be x and y this one should be This x That's why Okay, and then we start off at zero zero. Okay, and we get So sir, sir has one point One one point zero and zero point one. Yes now from one Point oh we can go to two point zero and one point one. Yes Okay for zero point one Go to one one one and we can go to um zero point two. Yeah From Two point zero we can go to two point one. Yeah, but not this one. Okay From one point one one point one No, it seems to be doing Some of them multiple times, which is no good. Ah, they do get added multiple time Okay, this is not should we should not be visited should actually be seen Okay, and scene prime is a third time union Seen daughter third dot from list Okay, so now we should only see things once. Okay Now uh zero zero. Okay, we get these two and then zero one we get One point zero we get Okay, what is the target s comma e? Target is two point four. Ah, okay. I didn't flip that target yet. I thought I flipped it here Um, let's print the graph as well the graph says zero It says two comma five Okay, so that's the one we want So this one is still wrong So this one should be two comma five This one should be x and this one should be Why this one should be x and this one should be y My 12 up. No, it's only finds a path Okay, and it's saying okay. I think this one is just wrong. All right PS prime so we're gonna say This is map So new parents Ah It's gonna be ps map dot union a ps and map dot from List uh repeat q and s sip repeat q How can you not be in the map? Zero one zero two Go zero one and then zero So look at it. Okay This one's actually correct. It's saying that zero one zero two Now why doesn't it see any neighbors from here? One of the top is all the team, but it's usually zero comma three, right? Maybe went around somehow right So here I'm always saying So, okay, so I want to I want to build a path backwards, right? Okay Right path a path start. Let's wait over here. We do a and and the gpc and equals start equals q And I want to reverse the path in the end Okay, and now It's over building it up from the back. Okay, but then this one is not like the scene, right? So I'm actually gonna say Can we build it up backwards? Yes We get something here Let's use the length of this Just 26. Well, that's not the same as the jmb, but okay 30 bfs and a t uncurry bfs uncurry So let's make it do it like that. Okay int map Come up. So it's gonna be an uncurry uncurry bfs to array I seem to be finding a shorter path Okay, so I go from zero to one zero Okay, I'm from here to one one another two one Okay Another three one c to r. No, that's not legal. Let me see here So it's g g comma uncare uncare print a uncurry uncurry bfs of g print neighbors G and I want to see what the neighbors of so it seems to go from uh Zero zero to one zero to one one Another two one and then what's going to three one So three one two two. Why is this say that? Why is it saying you can go from c to r? okay, so the value here of cohorts of graph Uh, so that's gonna be a Okay, so the xy value Let's see what this gives us for for a 2.1 I'm sorry. I'm screwing up this garden. It's somehow uh Pretty one So two one has value 99 Okay, so this is we're thinking this is two One it has value 99 now gci from in see Okay, yeah So two one has value 99 okay, um And it's being a little this length of two nine has value 99 now b as value 98 Look you go there two two This two two has value 99 as well. Yes now a One three has value 114 uh Wait, so one one has value 98. Okay. Three one is value 99 now. Okay. This one is Doing something wrong the x y It's almost like it's one coordinate system on one way one coordinate in the other Okay, but okay. So, uh, we're looking at a two. Yeah, okay. It's definitely So this was to be y and x.  Yeah, and what is the Three one hundred and fourteen this one makes sense. That makes sense Make it make sense. Okay print.  Okay. So what is the path it giving me? That's the link. Okay, so it goes a 00102021 2224 3444 5464 64 7473 6 0 6 0 5 0 4 0 3 0 and then go through 1 3 2 3 3 4 3 5 3 4 2 Okay, and this is the same It's the same This path reaches this one steps the fewest possible Let me see. So 1 2 3 4 5 6 Is there something we skip? We go 0 0 0 so okay 1 0 2 0 1 0 2 0 2 2, okay So we seem to end up here. Okay, but that doesn't matter.  Yes Okay, and then we go 6 0 5 0 4 0 7 0 6 0 5 0 4 0 3 0 7 0 6 0 5 0 4 0 3 0 3 0 Yeah, okay So this is 0 1 2 3 3 0, okay 3 1 3 2 3 3 3 1 3 2 Ah 3 1 3 2 3 3 Okay 4 3 5 3 Ah 4 3 5 3 Yeah, and then we go directly up, but so there's something wrong with the So there's something wrong with the Ah can't see your video only It's being said Hello, hello Give me a second. I'm gonna go out and check the video status. The video is not coming through. Let me check This might be related to that crash earlier So I can see the video Like on my app So maybe The ones who can't see the video should Ah working now funny very funny Okay, so I said we could go directly to e but that was not true I think we can only go from z to e Let me confirm that in this big one. Yes. Okay, so we have to go from z to e A B z z z z z Z So this is one is going to be from enum A minus one It's going to be from enum Zed plus one Now a let's go a s val E val these are our hands S val equals from So we're just gonna go like this e val equals S val e val Dush. Oh no sx. Yes. Because now we didn't do here. We should say S val E val Okay, and we print the length of this over Just 32 Okay, so we just we don't count the final one, I guess Now let's see then a Let's do a read input input over do print dot minus one dot length F map length dot a Anker It's going to be minus one here actually Let's just see if this works for the example I'll try shows Let's see how it works for the save it first Okay, non-accessive patterns in sx is here again E is here Okay, so they're there but something is wrong here Cat maybe sxs Okay, yeah, so it's just empty Access is empty here Ah, but ah, okay. I haven't saved this Understandable. Have a nice day. Okay 449 All right We got part one finally Two hours if This is like they also want to turn To maximize about how you can start as low as possible. Have a nice day. We'll see what happens Are The tracks you should be direct taking the few steps to reach its goal So I'll need to find the shortest path from any square on elevation a To the square marked e Okay, now it's any ea Okay, let's see. Oh, good Maximize the quality of our the right way back Any square at elevation a I suspect the best way to do this is to start from e Flip the whole thing around and just try and find something that has value a Because you can see there's a lot of a's but there's only one A There's only one a That screws up the whole How many a's are in this? Okay, that's gonna be crazy, right? Okay. Um, let's just throw it. Do you see I 1635 a's it was still only take a minute and a half to do all Mm-hmm But so what we can do is we can be smart, right? So kind of every time we see a an a Just start again But that's gonna depend on where we start at least read it here a G comma s comma e Is to array Okay, and now a pause Or check all a's if you're only looking for The closest one Because we don't know which one is the closest one, right? a So what you want me to do you want me to find the so the thing is that like the On the path from the s to the nearest a it might not be So yeah, so what I'm saying is the the right way to do this is going to like start from e and just Walk a Take a valid walk like back steps until you find a An a but so we're just I'm just gonna see how How bad it is if I because I've already been here two hours lazy today a Now let's say a We didn't put a read file example Lines a Ls Okay, now we're gonna do a Add chords to all of them. So we're gonna say a dip with Okay, and then I'm gonna take the row number And I'm gonna do a Line and I'm gonna do a tip with zero Tip with a okay, and then here I'm gonna take the character And I'm gonna say a a c The a so That's this be this be this is gonna be y and then this is gonna be x c a x more y Okay, now let's Print lns Okay And let me see is e in the correct place here It's in five two. Oh, okay print. So this is correct. Um Okay, and then we're gonna go print a conkat concatenate then These are all the a's Okay, so I can do a bfs graph G and I could probably you know Break earlier something a We're gonna take a minimum of this. Okay, and it's gonna be if we Turn this into input. We'll take some time Oh, that is annoying Uh Intmap bang key eight is not an element of this map. I need to change this to input as well Mm-hmm could finish in three seconds. Let's see if it's correct. Okay see We could have done so much work But it took three seconds Okay I'm not gonna spend I'm not gonna spend an hour extra to Make it work And I think it's because you know, it's just it's quite fast I mean binary search Oh, I like that. Okay. Uh, but now we have an implementation of binary search, which is quite nice, right? um We had like sparse arrays and all like that Okay, anyway, I'm gonna let it stand like this. I'm gonna say a Task one Is gonna be They're gonna link them to an int to an int Take this as some ints to Uh, an int. Okay print task one. I should have to have that right? Okay, so that's task one task two equals now here. I'm just gonna go And then this is going to be going to sip the imp and we're not going to take equals zero we're gonna say And then this one is going to be minimum Dollar map maybe minus one bfs ga g g comma anything equals two All right, and we've cleaned out the code We wrote a breadth first search Which I'm guessing is gonna come very very handy later Because yeah, a lot of some of these yeah, I mean this is a classic all you have to do is breadth search And we could have like tried to rearrange the q So instead of always taking the beginning of the q Uh, we could have prioritized right so and that would be like and so try to go in the direction of the Queve and then let's see here where q equals Nice priority prioritize by guess q is q and it's the same here Just q comma q s q comma q s equals as we say The default one is a q comma q s prioritized equals q comma q s this is a Standard bfs now we can also write prioritized q s equals Something like a sort data god list. We're gonna say here here q q s equal sort on a metric you come to us a sort on metric metric equals so this is going to be that distance from It's going to be pretty in distance is Square root we're going to have said here a ex comma y equals and metric a t of x minus e x equals y and then we do square root of x1 times y1 No, it's not a funny end. Okay, and then we do Okay, so here It will do a priority q instead But it doesn't give the same It's not good. I guess this metric isn't stable Ah This one takes actually It takes a lot longer Okay, yeah, we can't do it this way because we have to kind of prioritize the total cost So we would have to look at like the cost of getting to the parent and then Okay, but But there we can write it. Okay. Let's say this is get and day 12. All right Uh, this was quite long today It would have been shorter had I not been confusing myself the whole time you teach you kids Don't have ins comma ins have like x chord y chord all like that Anyway, thank you for tuning in I hope the recording and everything worked and uh Yeah, see you tomorrow same time And yeah, I hope you're nice. All right. Thank you and bye. Bye


A cross-session of APC supporters has reacted to the victory of the former Governor of Lagos State Senator Bola Tinubu at the just-concluded presidential primaries in Abuja. Most of the people interviewed by plus-TV correspondent Francis said that the former Lagos State governor has the capacity, network, and political structures to win in 2023, while some others are of the opinion that his network and contacts will guarantee him victory against the former vice president, Atiku Abu Bakar, of the People's Democratic Party. Above all, Tinubu is a destabilised Nigeria. He has network across the country. Tinubu also is a builder. He has raised a lot of people. Most of the people he has raised have become governors, some have become ministers, and he has continued to turn out quality persons. What I like Tinubu? Tinubu is my father's friend. So almost like Tinubu. It's a foundation, not the party. You can never leave the party town. Tinubu is a man of authority, a man of equality. He's the man that has the capacity of building. Because why are particular leaders? He has different branches. He has people. He has connections. He brings up. He grooms people. He grooms leaders so that they will come together and form a particular crew that will make Nigeria look good. Do that, lay the foundation of houses. Only you that know where the house started. So I believe he can fight for us. He can fight for Nigeria and we can have better Nigeria with him. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.

Welcome back to yes, we're here with me today teammate Ryan Ruko Ryan great to see you We're gonna talk a little NBA and as we know the league is about to open Facilities with government approval at places that stay-at-home orders have eased. What does that tell you about the state of the game? Well Nancy, you know, I think first and foremost the good thing is that at least it means that you know, we are Seeing the league move in a positive direction, right towards towards basketball. So Is it the ultimate step? No, that will be you know, we actually you know get to see Meaningful games again, or is it as meaningful a step as when we see an outline of a schedule when games will return? No, it's not quite that either, but it is you know, the most I'd say concrete step of Progress that we've had since the season was suspended back on March 11th, so I for from my perspective I think it's a great thing and I also think that the league is still showing appropriate caution As they you know sort of open up incrementally How concerned should we be how concerned do you think teams are about the competitive balance issue? Yeah, that's a really good point Nancy because Obviously, you know in certain cities Where a case totals are significantly lower and the spread is not as rampant The orders and the restrictions are either, you know, not there at all or lessen Compared to say, you know, we live in the tri-state area, right? Where you know, if you're the Knicks or the Nets, you know, you still have much more significant stay-at-home orders than you do in some other places in this country, so You know, I think that it is significant You know from a competitive balance standpoint just as far as access to facilities go But the the thing is like I think we're all sort of understanding that Not everything is going to be on the same level surface playing field that we're used to right the same way that we may have to compromise the amount of games or the you know, the Structure of a postseason or whatever it might be We all get that there are going to be certain compromises made that if everything was normal in the way usually is we wouldn't have to worry about Well, I just look at it in the same game like yes, ideally you would have every single team going back to the practice facilities at the same exact time However, because of the circumstances we're in I think the benefits outweigh the negatives as far as opening up for those You can open up for and you just sort of deal with you know The competitive balance issue it may present and the one other thing I'd say about that Nancy is you know for you know Those places that are opening up. They're still not allowed to have right group activities or you know their entire coaching staff there So it's not as if teams will be running completely organized practices while other you know players have to stay at home on other teams It's more so about just having facilities for individual work So true Ryan, it's very much a learn as we go situation it's going to be that way every step of the way and With the opening so many other questions again, that's to be expected like how many weeks of preparation do guys need How have they been able to maintain preparation?  Yeah, they've had to get incredibly creative with just keeping their game You know up to speed and you know, I think that but you know, the longer we go, you know, the You know more necessary it is to have At least somewhat significant chunk of time for players to ramp back up Especially in the case of the NBA where you know, you might be going right into the playoffs, right? Or you're gonna be just playing a handful of regular season games before you go into the playoffs So I mean, they were already full tilt, you know, three-quarters of the way through the regular season So I do think you're going to need and I think the athletes will be able to give a fair gauge on exactly how much time They'll need but I do think you'll need, you know, a few weeks just to get their bodies In position to play Meaningful games and perhaps like the most meaningful games playoff basketball And the end even play to begin with is to be expected. I don't think that should be too big a level of concern, right? No, I don't think so. I mean because you know what Nancy? I just feel like if you're if you're any of these leagues right now, right? Like you just want to be able to get your sport back on the court or on the field or in the arena, right? like that is the primary focus and Being able to do so and this goes without saying but I'll say it anyway in case anybody thinks of skirting this Being able to do so with health and safety as the first issue in mind, right? Like you have to be able to do it in a way where you feel like health and safety is not compromised Or is such a minimal risk that you and your constituents believe that the reward outweighs that risk And and and then you just want to be able to do it in a way that gives you the closest proximity to the competitive playing field That you normally lay out in a leaves landscape and if that means it looks a little different or it's a little bit You know more compromised than what you're used to I think that's a fair trade For you know players and teams to make just in order to get the sport back Let's dive into some nets talk specifically shall we and Sean Marks Several interviews lately some lengthy ones and of course everyone's going to be asking about Kevin to read and how his progress is Where is he with regard to perhaps coming back? And you know Sean Marks has not closed the door on us seeing KD in action this year Yeah, he he he has not completely closed it, right? So I mean that in itself is definitely an exciting headline for net spans And you know you had you started to hear rumblings Towards the middle of March that Durant was physically ready in back to being Kevin Durant And I think you know it just Given what had happened with Kyrie Irving with his shoulder surgery It just wouldn't have made sense for the nets to throw Kevin back into games. However If Kevin is totally physically ready now and Kyrie is totally physically ready And there's you know, no more added risk of having them back in games. Then I would say yeah, why not do it? You know, um you'd rather uh Perhaps then get a little bit of a runway into next season If they can get on the court plus. Yeah, I mean, you know They're both such dynamic players that all of a sudden what you could accomplish this year Obviously, uh, the ceiling gets pushed up, you know through the sky if they're both on the floor Um, I would say this though one thing. I don't think we keep in mind often enough With this period of time is yes All of a sudden the days and the weeks and the months have gone by since the injuries and and during what we thought was going to be You know the appropriate rehab time before these players would be back But they also have not necessarily had the same access to You know trainers or performance staff or facilities to be able to keep their rehab ramping up as it would have been normally So, you know while the time that's gone by I do think makes it possible that these guys could be back playing And I certainly want to keep that, you know possibility open. Um, and I'm excited about it I also think we have to throw a little cold water on it just to say It's also possible that these guys didn't have the necessary access They needed to keep their rehab on a steady incline Yes, we are in learning mode for sure and Sean marks us also said He doesn't want to put too much pressure on them with regard to having to lead the team either He likes that to be more of a group thing four or five guys showing the way Yeah, and I think that kind of you know, uh, co-aligns with the spurs philosophy, right? Where Sean comes from and and also the culture he's tried to create here in brooklyn I remember, you know, one of the big things for Sean When jeremy lin was the next star and I know jeremy unfortunately did not get on the floreton Although he did play very well when he did In brooklyn, but I remember a big thing for Sean was hey, like I don't want to make every press appearance every, you know Media appearance every pr appearance every community appearance every billboard every article I don't want to make it all jeremy like we need to do this as a team You know when we have a billboard up of brooklyn that's players I want to make sure that there's two or three guys with jeremy when we do that when jeremy goes to an event Because you know, we feel like we need our highest profile, you know, net's player there I want to make sure there's two or three guys with jeremy because I don't want it to be all about him Now obviously kevin doran and kairi Irving are stars of a completely, you know different stratosphere than jeremy lin But I think the point is, you know, the same that you want to sort of Distribute the responsibility Of being a spokesman for the team as much as you possibly can there obviously limits Uh to how much the eighth man can be a spokesman for the team versus, you know You know one of the top players in the league like a kevin doran ken or a kairi irving ken But it helps everybody out Including the culture but also those individuals if you can divvy up the responsibility to at least a certain extent So it's baby steps facilities are starting open. We can't assume kd is coming back But we can enjoy the thought of it, right ryan Absolutely. Hey, nancy. We're looking for as much good news as we can possibly get right now, right? I mean, we will take any little shred of positive evidence out there So just the fact that the door is slightly ajar on that Is exciting and encouraging and something to look forward to and the fact that mba teams are going back to their practice facilities At least, you know, uh, some franchises are is certainly, uh, some positive news as we all are just joneson for some live sports Yes, joneson indeed Great You and the family are safe. See you soon. Thank you. Thank you, nancy. So good to see you as well


The body needs a mate understandable. Maybe psychologically also you need a mate, understandable. Emotionally you need a mate, a soul cannot need a mate, so soul doesn't need a mate, nor was some person made perfectly for you, okay? If you invest a deep sense of involvement, something wonderful may happen. It's because of your involvement, not because other person is fantastic. No. So even if you choose a fool, it doesn't matter. If you involve yourself, it can turn out very beautiful. You chose the smartest person in the universe, it could be a disaster. So do not think in terms of, you know, whatever this made for each of their nonsense.


Hey guys Today we're going to be fixing a problem with this outside outlet. Stay tuned Okay guys What we got here we noticed That whenever we would plug something in on this outside outlet That not only was it a little loose The it didn't want to work right like the blower or the this goes to Her water fountain over here it wouldn't work and we got to noticing in the bathroom Sometimes the fan and vanity light would work and sometimes it wouldn't And then out back whenever those wouldn't work There's a receptacle out back That wouldn't work so we got to think them once if you wiggle this everything else would work So I don't know why it's all tied into this one especially the one out back you think it would be tied into something right there and The kitchen, but it's not so what we're going to do is we're going to see what the problem is here So I've already got the power shut off to this Hope no creepy crawlies like big-ass Black widows come out at me or nothing. See what we got going on here So I'm guessing a broken wire or something I'm not seeing Any broken wires. I'm thinking this thing itself is just bad. It does have the ground So let's take this ground off. God. I hope we don't get bit by anything. So we have to replace this. I Have one right here Hope you guys are seeing this. Okay, so that's right. There goes a little tiny spider. I Gotta grab something out of the house My glasses in the garage see Make sure get the right side here being this make sure it's gonna go like this Just like this here. Sure. Nothing else is exposed how this could be The original one from 1994 when the house was built You guys see the Monkeys video Of some of her before and after photos of when she bought the house and what all has been done to it Very interesting. It was in very poor condition when she bought the house For foundation roof and all that was still great condition, but the inside it had sent empty for five years and what happened was People kids had gotten in spray-painted graffiti. That's why you'll still see some graffiti there But it's not as bad as it was Yank this out since I'm not reusing it Supposed to be able to get a I'm gonna get a little tiny screwdriver stick down in there if I can so the but the Yeah, the house that empty it said so the so the vandals come in they you know I Apparently stole hot water tank and just graffiti to hell out of the place. So she's done a Lot of work on the house see these inside here. There's a little tab you push And it releases that wire.  I'm using a piece to my This is to my test lights. This one's not releasing Of course you can re you can cut them if you want and restrip them, but they should just pop right out now It's first top one And see right there it's a little and I messed up a little bit So I'm thinking and it came right out. They just pulled right to it right out. So I'm guessing That was the problem And then these are just gonna stick right down in here Loosen them up. Like I said, it's it's time to get a new one. Just do that all for hope everybody had a great Easter And I now I didn't realize something yesterday Was I'm gonna clip a little bit of that off. Those are awful. No yesterday was April Fool's Day Now had I have remembered that I Would have had some fun Videos for y'all. I did not remember it so I Don't want to tell you I'm just gonna clip those off make them a little shorter.  I'm gonna make them a little shorter And make sure you don't go too short because it's got to make its connection there. So that's better Down in there tighten her up. Oops. Sorry bunch of guys. There's that one. I'm gonna be having a tight just like that now We're going to do the ground always goes on that green nut Get down on drinking so much the way I've been feeling past few days. It's almost 1 30 in the afternoon So I haven't had a coke yet. I've been drinking some water though I guess she just cares about me guys and having some chest pains and real real weak and light-headed and Comes and goes been going on for a Week week and a half now blood pressure.  I'm gonna go too tight because it'll just keep growing it down try to get it Center most as possible. You should put a GFI in here need to get I do have a One of them new Gaskets in there somewhere, but I don't know where it is right at the moment. So What we're gonna do, I'm gonna put this one on for now There we go. I'm gonna plug the And then Phone just covers that up and plug this in Which I already did now I'm going to Go in we're gonna turn the power on and we'll know Because I have I have the light and fan on in here Okay, let me go turn it on and we'll enough orcs. So I'll be right back I'm in the garage flip it on fan should have came on and they did So that's weird guys how they've got that hooked up the first leg of it apparently because it goes from there into here and then out To the back out here by this back door. I don't know so as there's another quick how-to thing I know you've seen me do the bathroom ones, but Just hit it again to make sure you guys can do the stuff yourself. Just make sure the power is off. I Have done it when the power was on before I think I told you that story Didn't realize I thought it was off, but okay guys, so I'm gonna get my tools and Pretty nice down here today Little overcast, but see her fountain is running now. So there we go guys Thanks for watching. Okay. Thanks for watching guys and as always if Check out monkey 1000 check her channel out her last video was awesome. She's been planting some flowers She's got these to plant She's gonna plant down through here So far and then she Planted these herself. I drilled some holes in the bottom of the pan so it doesn't get up too much water, but they were like 750 a piece so and then I don't know what the flowers were but that's what the pots were so anyway guys again Check out monkey 1000. Don't forget. Check me out the myth the man the legend shape on 1000. All right guys I'm gone. Bye. Bye now


My grandfather used to say one man's trash is another man's treasure. I always felt that this meant some things are worth saving and that people would often consider perfectly good items as trash and thus throw them out into the garbage. That kind of sums up where we are today with CRTs and CRT technologies. So let's turn some trash into treasure. Today's monitor is a coast. I have not been able to find any useful information on this particular model or format of commercial presentation CRTs. The monitor is also a complete mess inside and I've been putting this repair off for months because of it.  So without further introduction I present to you the Mitsubishi SMR 2601R. Here's a look at this interesting Mitsubishi presentation monitor. So if I look at the front side here I mean obviously it's filthy. It's been sitting here in my shop for a while and I've been kind of leery to work on it because I imagine it's probably got a lot of bad components in it possibly but we'll see in a second. It does have this interesting push out tray with a lot of buttons on it and honestly if you saw it from the front here you may think it just looks like a normal Mitsubishi television. There are stereo speakers built into it and it's got an infrared reader right here so it most likely supports a remote. It's obviously a shadow mass tube. It's about a 26 inch screen and a 4x3 format but that's just a quick look at the front here. We got this nice Mitsubishi logo again this part's plastic. The more interesting thing is the rest of the monitor. If you look at the frame outside of the bezel if you look at the top part of the monitor here in the bottom and then I will roll it around on the side it's got this amazingly high quality wood that's made the frame for the frame on the monitor. This has some nice handles right here. Let's look around to the back. All right so presentation monitor uses 60 Hertz AC 120 volts commercial use only monitor and then something else the model number is the SMR 2601R. We do have a couple more labels up here from Mitsubishi and a serial number and then a manufacturing date of May of 1992. Here's a closer look at our inputs. We've obviously got in and out on just audio video for composite which are B and C and we've got an S video port here a VTR port which is most likely not going to be used. You do have a speaker on off switch a lot of audio inputs and outputs and we do have VGA listed here as a possibility on an input which I'm not sure where that is but you can use obviously B and C for RGB and then sync and then we do have a sync on green ability and then there's an analog RGB D sub inputs you know similar to what you see on the older Sony monitors. This one actually will accept VHF and UHF signals which is quite rare. I've removed the screws from the back we're going to try to take the back plate off now and just like that it comes out. This one has a fan there's a quick disconnect up here. Disconnect that fan then we can look in here real quick. Here's the inside of the monitor. It's a very interesting design. First it's completely lined inside it with a copper. Imagine to limit interference. You can see how that's tanned up around the top there and the sides and goes all through the inside and then there's the tube and our flyback and it would right there and it's a very interesting flyback that Mitsubishi has here. It's like a double flyback almost and there's our power in so over here is our power supply board and that must have some type of an issue because we're not getting clean power into it and when I turn it on it has this terrible odor that smells like fish oil that's cooking rotten fish which is a sign that most likely there's electrolytic fluid somewhere on the board and it's starting to heat up and starting to stink so really what we need to do is get in there and inspect that board if possible so I don't know how really to get in there we'll see if we can without ripping the whole monitor apart. It's time to finally get back in here and start doing some work. We're going to remove the video board first I think it's kind of interesting everything does have little connectors that thankfully are labeled so first I need to disconnect all these quick disconnects and make sure that I have my cables loose from my video board and the video board just lifts off of some hinges on here that are very much like door hinges from old furniture so we'll get this one out of the way and then we can look around maybe get some more boards out of the way and start inspecting them and see if see if there's anything noticeably wrong just from looking at it well so I had to actually disconnect all the cables from the board itself instead of these quick disconnects those are almost useless so take this I'll show you how this just lifts up comes right out like that looks like that should be all of it so this board we can take a look at but this doesn't this is probably not there's probably nothing wrong with this board the the rest of this big board down here will actually lift up and come right out of the wood base and that's what I'm thinking I'm having a problem with is either down here in this power supply but I can't get to the power supply it looks like without actually removing the main chassis and other board this whole setup right here let me see how that just lifts it's not bolted in there or anything but you need to get that out and that might involve just discharging and pulling everything out well unintentionally I actually wiggled the cap off of the back of the tube it didn't appear to be making very good contacts maybe it was but I didn't I didn't really have to do much at all it just came right off so now I'm just going to get my discharge tool hook that up and discharge this point all right we're going to zoom in here to the back of the tube and what I want you to look for is the exposed metal band on that spring down there towards the corner right to the spring right there a little alligator clip first we'll touch the tube nothing nothing okay and that's it all right so now we're just going to get in here and tear down the monitor I'm going to join you from the studio for the remainder of today's video and we're going to talk you through a little bit more on this unbelievable Mitsubishi repair so once I've gotten it open and apart now I'm going to start disassembling these boards because I can't get the power supply out without first getting rid of that main chassis and the neck board and of course that input board too so this is fast forward extremely a lot but what I was able to do is finally get to that power supply and I'll show you an inspection of it here quickly so you can see pretty much what our major issue is and that is the capacitors on here these capacitors in this high heat high frequency zone are unbelievably disgusting this is one of the grossest grossest jobs I've worked through these caps had completely vaporized for the most part spewed guts and gore and goo all over the board and then that stuff got onto the board on the backside and it got all over the traces and it got onto the solder pads of many of the capacitors and other through hole components and it was just a mess so whatever would happen is this current would run through that and it would heat up these areas and and immediately heat up that electrolytic fluid that was on those hot spots and just cause an insane amount of stink to come out of this monitor this was a repair that had been done by somebody in the past and I cannot believe that any of these points still had continuity so a lot of that's going to have to be fixed and we're going to clean up a lot of this you'll notice that dark kind of burnt looking area on the circuit board that's the high heat resistors and like I think there's some diodes probably in there on the other side of this botched repair and a lot of those had just lifted they were they're not even you know that electrolytic fluid had just eaten through the traces so they weren't even making contact on a lot of points over there but that's that's going to have to be rebuilt and then we're going to have to get in here and clean up some of the other areas on the board where some other capacitors possibly were removed and replaced I'm going to use of course my HECO FR301 solder desoldering tool it's a great tool and if you're thinking of getting one it's a really good time to get one right now being that it's towards the end of the year they generally go on sale for 20 to 25 off directly from HECO and so I highly recommend this tool it's been a workhorse for me but just what would happen is you'd heat up these spots and if you were lucky the caps would come out and if you weren't lucky there was a lot you know some of these spots had again that electrolytic fluid built up and that would burn away and then the trace would vaporize almost so there's going to be a lot of rebuilds going on here's what the top of the board looked like after I removed the capacitors just look at the amount of buildup we've got under these capacitors this one right here was by far the worst it had blown its stuff all over the place all over these resistors those are usually generate some heat also so that's where a lot of the bad smell was we've got some heat sinks more resistor right in between these so again high heat it's funny too it happens around these ICs generally and these connection points where high with frequency voltage generally is traveling through and that causes these capacitors to generally wear out quicker than some of the other capacitors that aren't in a high frequency current so here's a look at the capacitors themselves afterwards I just wanted to show you these specific ones and how they were just terribly eaten up this is what they look like when they start to fail to the one of the most extreme fails that I've seen a long time and these were actually Rubicon so I hadn't seen many Rubicon's fail before so just even even the best can fail if the environment is right with heat and just time because again this is an early 90s model of monitor and that just means there's a lot more time for these components to go out you did have to clean it rather heavily with some isopropyl alcohol it would have been nice to have some kind of device like perhaps to actually clean it further you know like an ultrasonic cleaner but for something abort this size that would cost an extreme amount of money so the best bet is generally to get isopropyl alcohol and clean that off as best as possible let me give it some time for to evaporate and this is what we looked like afterwards the top side came became relatively clean and looked pretty good but the bottom side still had some trouble areas we're gonna have to go in and rebuild some of these traces like I had mentioned before especially in this area you'll notice some of these just had vaporized the entire through hole portion on here so we're gonna take and use a jumper wire or even some legs of the capacitors and other other components to repair some of those and bridge some of those points and as first it's just gonna go in here and replace the capacitors as best as possible I was again concerned about being able to get a good bond on my circuit board considering that a lot of the areas were covered in the electrolytic fluid but after the cleaning it did help but there were it was definitely a challenge it wasn't as easy as say a new or cleaner power circuit board there so just take that into consideration if you're working on something this old that the circuit board could have somewhere and tear on it and need to have a you know a little bit better handling than maybe if it was a little bit more durable and newer and here we have the after after we've replaced all the capacitors here's what it looks like inside it looks wonderful we've got it cleaned up and I want to show you how I repaired a lot of the sections on the back I was able to clean off some of the other areas and didn't really have to do too much but this particular area you'll see let me go through some of the repairs right quick I had to make a jumper right here and this is done with most likely yes a capacitor leg came through the hole and I put a heat shrink tube on there and then we've got a couple of jumper wires where I had to rebuild the entire trace under them that had been disintegrated by the past a couple years of that electrolytic fluid building up on here and just eating it away there's another jumper right there I left this jumper in place that was originally installed before I got there and I just kind of worked my way around it as opposed to redoing it also because I did go through here and of course check for continuity after I did all these repairs but I was you know I was kind of skeptical I never knew if this thing was actually going to work again because of this kind of damage when you get in here and there's this much damage to a pcb it's really difficult to tell if it's actually going to work again so I wanted to limit the amount of you know work time I put into it without knowing that it's going to be working again because it's quite a lengthy you know we want to take and do the right thing on that board to begin with because if you look inside here we're going to have to put it back together and we're going to have to put all those cables right there in that stack back connect those all back to the main boards and everything of course I went through and I did check my continuity on all my solder or all my joints on the power supply so it took me probably an hour to get it back together and before I fire it back up and see if we get it to work I did want to show you briefly we'll go back a second take a look at the inside of this monitor it's actually completely lined in high quality copper and that is just stapled onto the frame that wood frame and that does seem to help out with limiting the exposure to purity or outsize outside magnetic fields it really does decrease the amount of magnetism that's affecting the inside of that backside of the tube and thus it doesn't affect the picture quality I imagine now once we try and test it out here and see if we can actually get some power back into this thing maybe we'll get to see that in effect or you know definitely get to see to affect because here it is it did work okay once I got everything back together it fired up right away and really blew me away this monitor is super sharp and very exciting to get it back to life and to see the you know beautiful picture on it once again because this is again something that you're not going to see every day this is a look at some of the calibrations so it did look very nice there were actually calibration controls for RGB on the front of the monitor which is super handy considering this didn't actually have the service menu it did produce wonderfully bright and crisp scan lines again this is a shadow mask tube so it does have slightly different look than the Sony but just a magnificent magnificent thing to behold is this monitor so if you see something like this just note that you're going to want to get inside and inspect before you just try to usually run and start using these things I mean a lot of times you'll get lucky maybe and there won't really be a problem with it but most of the time at this point 2020 this monitor is almost 30 years old and has you know it obviously had been used quite a bit so the main problem here was the power supply again it was a dirty job but I'm super glad to get it fixed up and back into Dave's Mr. Blade Gun his hands so he can enjoy it and you know use it for a long time to go all right guys well thanks
