We're past time to start so I might as well start. Hi everyone. Welcome. My name is Andy Trice and I'm on the I'm so used to calling myself a developer advocate, but I'm actually not a developer advocate anymore But I'm on the product team for bluemix particularly working on architecture for local developer tools, but That's not always what I've done like I've gotten to do a lot of different things as far as cloud connectivity goes and Especially my role and previously in developer advocacy got to work on some interesting projects Some of them to kind of explore what's possible and some of them transforming those explorations of what's possible into real-world solutions across a variety of different industries and today I'd like to talk to you about specifically use cases involving IOT and in particular flying robots and cloud foundry and connect combining those with cognitive computing to come up with Very very interesting use cases that can make a difference and provide value in real-world situations I'm Andy Trice on Twitter, so if you want to heckle me or you know say, oh man, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about That's fine. I'm cool with that But let's go ahead and start with IOT and in the most broad definition of IOT What we're talking about is a collection of sensors and actuators that are interconnected and so they work together to achieve some kind of task or solve some kind of problem and You know, I started off talking about like flying robots But but now I'm kind of talking about more general like sensors and actuators when we're talking about sensors We're really talking about literally anything that's collecting information in the case with this we're talking about Telemetry data so information about the location of it the altitude the pitch You know how it's flying and we're also talking about the images that that are being pulled off of the the aircraft mid-flight but While I'm talking about this particular use case don't limit yourself saying oh, we're just talking about Getting pictures and doing something with them The approaches that I'm going to show you could be used for literally anything So whether it's a some kind of sensor that's pulling like moisture from the ground or temperature or infrared something I Don't know if you can think of a sensor that's collecting information there's ways that it can be used in similar workflows using similar services and When we talk about actuators, that's like the other side of it So sensors being data coming in actuators meaning we're doing something to perform an action whether it's an Action that you as a person are doing to change your business workflow, or whether you're using some sort of robot to go ahead and You know cause some kind of action Automatically based upon this that sensor information that's coming in And now we have to think about with all these different components So whether it's a flying robot whether it's a temperature sensor whether you've got an array of sensors Let's say an intelligent agriculture situation you have sensors all over the field Like you have all this information coming in from so many places like how do you collect that information? How do you manage it? How do you make it actionable and how do you as a user interact with that? Parts of it might be automated parts of it might be user driven and the way that you can go ahead and Build these systems can be built in a number of different ways You can use basically streaming analytics message cues or messaging services You can have asynchronous processing in particular You know for IBM we have open whisk, which is a serverless programming or serverless programming model, which is event driven Sorry, it's beeping at me up here So you have all these different options that you could use to build these kinds of an application But what being a cloud foundry summit? I want to focus on in particular iterations that I've had that involve cloud foundry and not just cloud foundry for the sake of cloud foundry but Using cloud foundry and no JS to drive innovation And if you're thinking about like, okay, that just sounds like a lot of BS. I can I can understand that But but there are distinct reasons that I've done a lot of iteration with no JS and cloud foundry No JS itself being it's a really easy language to get things done very quickly Is it going to solve every problem for every person in every situation probably not? But it solves a lot of them very well And if you're also in a situation where you need to do a lot of rapid innovation and everybody talks about like Oh, if you're going to do something fail fast, but let's look at the other side of it So not just feeling fast if you're going to do something prove its value you can do so very quickly I have personally found no JS to be a very effective tool in building these kinds of solutions to prove out concepts and say Hey, we can take this we can make a couple changes We could take it to the next level then all of a sudden we've got something that could be potentially transformative to an entire industry and I'm going to try and show that to you in a little bit and talking about cloud foundry in this mix Using the combination of no JS and cloud foundry I've been able to take my findings with These IOT or physical computing based solutions and then deploy them across multiple client engagements Across multiple contexts across multiple industries by just changing they're taking the same thing taking just a few different code changes some configuration changes pointing it at a different Training data set for Watson services. So that's the cognitive computing part Which I'll get to a little bit more and then it's got an entirely different use case and and you know That combination has been able to open my eyes to what's possible and open other people's eyes into building solutions that again are transformative to how they're they're doing their business and You can see up here. I've got the drone here and I want to focus on particularly an evolution of a use case That had many many many iterations So it all started well before I get into sort of how it started what we're talking about in particular is this kind of an aircraft Whoops my video did actually play The video is supposed to automatically play. There we go So what we're talking about are these kinds of an aircraft. There's actually two different ones there There's literally this one is the one that took off and then another one that I have at home the DJI inspire one DJI phantom These are commercial Off-the-shelf aircraft you can get them they have SDKs so you can build apps to interact with them so that if you want to do programmatic flight if you want to be able to collect information you want to respond to events like capturing media you can do all that and To some people they think that they look at those and the first thing that they think is hey That's a toy or hey, that's just for photographers. That's for videographers But I've been using these as a hobby for probably like in different iterations Four or five years now, and I did start with like that hobbyist photographer perspective because I was like let's get some really cool pictures of like You know the sunset over the ocean but looking down on all these different things like perspectives that you can't get any other way But it's a lot more than just a toy Here's a couple use cases like Some of these are from data that I've captured some of them are from other use cases that I'm Aware of across the web, but of how these are being used to to literally transform Both industries and and how it's being used to collect information and respond to events. So in the top left this is actually a picture of Wikipedia of drone operators using it in emergency response operations in after an earthquake in Southeast Asia I can't remember the specifics of it But I could look it up and tell you guys more if you're interested But they're being used to in search and rescue operations to be able to scan and find people in a More efficient way so you can find people faster But also safer way than sending someone into like a building that's been damaged by an earthquake because you don't want to send Your rescue workers in there and have the building collapse You can send a drone in there look if you find people then you take the steps to go ahead and rescue those people you can outfit them with thermal cameras and You know it's saving lives and it's transforming how people are Saving lives on the top right This is a digital elevation model that I created by scanning a building so doing what's called photogrammetry where you scan it from a lot of different perspectives and then it uses a photogrammetry software to extract information from all those the collection of images to create 3d models and Because all the images are geo-referenced based upon the metadata of the aircraft when it's flying you can actually create geo-referenced 3d models that can be used from everything from construction to You know different kinds of surveying Intelligent agriculture like a lots of different things and I'll get to more about one of those scenarios in a minute This one right here is a photo that I took of a construction site Not because I was working with a construction company because they're building a really big building not far from me And I was like this is perfect for one of my talks, but Even though this is a hypothetical use case where I'm doing this These types of techniques are being employed across industries particularly construction industry mining industries to survey this state of like different projects captured over time and Be able to document things in a way that if they were using manned aircraft would be much more time-consuming and much more expensive And then this last one you might be looking at okay That's the top of a roof and there's like circles on it And this is in particular the use case that I will show you later is using drones to be able to transform how Inspections of physical structures can be done and in particular inspecting grooves for the presence of damage from hail so hail storms So like a really bad storm rolls through using drones and cognitive computing to automatically detect damage to structures so this entire project began at IBM interconnect not this most recent one, but but last year and Actually, let me go ahead and so it started with IBM Interconnect I proposed a topic for one of my sessions to Build a cloud connected drone not doing any of the cognitive computing or anything like that But just to say hey look we have a drone we're capturing data We're pushing that up to the cloud as and just to see if it's possible. Well that session was accepted and then I started working on a content for the keynote and the keynote obviously took precedence and I Was working working working all of a sudden the key notes here the key notes gone. I'm like my sessions tomorrow and I haven't started yet But I was able to pull it off and let me go ahead and jump over and show you the application And then we'll talk about the process of how it was created and how it went through some oh come on Some very rapid iteration cycles that were empowered by this combination of no jazz and cloud foundry to transform the solution itself So I've got a web interface up here. Let me go ahead and turn everything back on that I turned off earlier They told me I'm not allowed to fly this in here Some people want me to fly it in here totally could insurance I'm not so sure about but I'll give you a live demo everything that I'm going to show you will be exactly the same way it would work if it were in the air so What I've got I mentioned earlier that DJI provides an SDK where you can build apps that communicate with the aircraft So here on my iPad home, let's make sure if that is a live feed everyone's not moving all that much So I couldn't tell but yeah, it's moved. So here my iPad I've got an app that I wrote which is communicating with the aircraft So this aircraft it will do 4k video 12 megapixel stills it can capture data pretty high quality and you can grab all the information about it So when you're flying it with its speed altitude to the pitch of the camera all this information And I'm capturing it and if you guys want to see it afterwards like up close I'm more than happy to show all of you so we've got all that information in here and I Love to show this one also when whenever you move the camera the aircraft around and why it's flying the camera is actually stabilized So it's like a rock solid picture as it's flying around so you can get really high quality imaging off of it I'm going to go ahead and so I just hit my button that I have here. It's capturing data so just took a picture is uploading it up to the cloud and It's once it gets up there It's actually going to perform image analysis on it using the Watson visual recognition service And if you're not familiar with Watson visual recognition service, it's a cognitive service on bluemix, which is our IBM's cloud platform That you can do general classifications to saying hey, there's people in here It can do facial recognition But it can also do specialized classification using what's called custom classifiers And that's where you can train the service to look for specific things that you're looking for So you can train it to say if I want to recognize certain patterns specific kinds of information I'll get to a more concrete example in a minute so in that time it captured an image and At this resolution my layout gets a little bit messed up So we can see that there's an image that was captured We can also see the results of the Watson visual recognition service and what I find interesting about this is it Recognized that we're in a building in a hall a conference room Assembly hall so it did a pretty good job actually at assessing where we are right now just by capturing that information And using the cognitive service to classify. What's the content that's in here now? This is kind of just a cool demo to grab people's attention and that's actually intentional I wrote this specifically because just to grab people's attention, but I also want you to think about Using this combination of technology how you can start doing this in more complex and like real-world applications So you could be out there you could be Surveying properties and let's say if you were just serving a bunch properties you're capturing the data You can be using that to classify What's the contents of all these images and build an index on all of that without a single bit of user interaction other than capturing the media and So if you're wondering what this weird box is on the right hand side I don't have a GPS signal if I did there would be actually a map there showing precisely where that image was captured but let's go ahead and look at some Images from when it was actually in the air So here's an aerial photo and you can see that it was tagged with blue sky beach And then it's an aerial image. It's not exactly a beach But there's sand and water in the bottom of the picture. So it's not that far off this was captured in real time and Set up and it's been pushed up for analysis and again if we want to go look at another example So if you stop by the IBM booth and talk to mark Who's got the intelligent Roomba robot that's connected to Watson? That's him But you'll also see that the Watson visual recognition service is able to extract information about people that recognize in there so we can identify people gender age and you know doing all this and Literally, it's just pulling data off of the the aircraft pushing it up to the cloud trigger analysis So let's jump back to my slides and kind of talk about How this evolved over time so I said it begins with a cloud-connected drone and The kicker here is I started to talk about this earlier is I built that the first version in literally 24 hours And so this is where I'm saying driving productivity with no jazz building quickly and iterating quickly You know I had to do it quickly because I had higher priorities It took precedence like the keynote for Interconnect But it was one of those were like this is one of the coolest things and I've been a hobby suzer for years So it intrigued me and I just got sucked in but the first version was very basic There's the app that communicates with the aircraft that talks to cloud foundry the web interface for consuming the data was on cloud Foundry and so it would do an HDD Post to send the metadata with the actual image binary and then it's storing it in cloud Which is a no-sequel database available on bluemix so that it's just taking it. It's it's kind of a Not that advance of a system taking it in you know content repository stuffing data in there we can look at it But over time so after I got through that quick 24-hour cycle and I proved hey, I can do this I figure We can do a lot more than just capturing data and showing it on the web And that evolved into what we see here, which is a bit more complex, but it's much more reliable and Before I elaborate on that, but let's talk about how it works now So what you just saw is there's the app that's running on the iPad, which is plugged in the controller talking to the aircraft We're collecting data that gets saved in Local storage on the iPad so this line here is identifying what's happening on the client app and what's happening up in the cloud and This is using what's called the cloud and sync framework, which is local storage for cloud and which implements the catch-to-be replication protocols so that it can automatically push data up to the cloud and Whenever I capture data the metadata about it is being saved in here The binary for the image is being saved as attachment that object because you might be out flying and you have no connection to the internet So in the case in those cases might other Example actually would have failed miserably because it required a persistent network connection in this case It's capturing the data and whenever you get within range of a network And you know you could be operating off of a cell phone or operating from a SIM card. That's in your iPad Whatever it might be It will sync up to the cloud The cloud and you know you could have multiple instances in your cloud So you could have replication across that But it's being synced up the cloud and cloud and is automatically triggering events for open whisk which is our serverless computing platform So all the initial processing that I was doing in cloud foundry I had moved over to an open whisk action, which is also based on node.js You can write actions in open whisk in swift node.js Python basically whatever you want But because I started node.js on cloud foundry I could easily take that put into an open whisk action So as soon as data is written to the database it kicks off the serverless action Which calls a Watson visual recognition service Which then does the image analysis and then it takes it puts it back into cloud it and again Everything is running off of a web interface and that web interface is actually the exact same one that I created for the first iteration now This is a case where? It's an interesting scenario That captures people's attention and we were doing some interesting things with it, but It didn't stop there actually not not in the slightest after I did this and The funny thing was I did that use case and showed Watson connected drones that actually got picked up by tech crunch and a bunch of people Approach me saying hey, can we use this for like actual real-world scenarios? And this is where I say we can use these The combination of you know node.js and cloud foundry Particularly with cloud foundry on bluemix where we have access to Watson and cognitive services to start transforming industries And I truly mean transforming industries I was approached by a company not gonna be a team with an IBM focused on insurance solutions And in particular they were working with a client that wanted to be no Can we train Watson to detect the presence of one particular use case because you with with particularly with visual recognition services You want to start small and build from there, and that was can we train Watson to build? Or not builds can we train Watson to recognize the presence of hail damage on single roofs? And if you look at this how many people can look at this and point out where there's hail damage Okay, a couple of you but to the untrained eye and if you don't specifically know what you're looking for You don't know what you're looking for. I know that until people explain to me what hail damage actually looks like I didn't know what it was but basically Okay, it's easier to see up there, too There is on the screen, but there's small black dots and indentations like right there. There's a bigger one There's a bunch right around here. There's a couple around here the darker spots are actually areas where hail large hail has struck the single roof and Single roofs there's a layer of essentially asphalt with a granular like particulate on top of it and when the hail impacts the roof it knocks off the particulate leaving these black indentations and It turns out we were able to train Watson to recognize these specific use cases and that's kicked off a bigger project We're saying what else can we train Watson to? To be able to recognize automatically But what's also interesting about this is why we didn't Watson didn't automatically come back and say Oh, there's these certain areas that have in incidences of damage in instead It was well can we train Watson with these small images like crop down images of just hail damage to say is this Damage or is it not damage and then well What if you have a piece of an image that has partial roof and partial like grass and shrubbery and all these things around it? We trained Watson to be able to compare the difference between all these different pieces and then you know Chopped up the images into smaller grids and they were using the smaller grids of images able to determine where within the image there's instance of localized damage and That all started as a very very very simple application where it was like drag and drop an image from the desktop browser Drop it on to the web interface that we have here that uploads it up to cloud foundry That runs graphics map graphics magic libraries on it from the no JS app to chop it up into small images We submit those to Watson visual recognition and we visualize the results and that's literally the interface of what it looked like when we started and that's the hail image that you saw just a minute ago, but Again earlier. I mentioned how cloud foundry can be used to take something and Like no jason cloud foundry you can use it for across many different use cases and it's Basically snowballed from there. So it's been used for detecting rust on cell towers rust on bridges rust on high power lines Areas where there are cracks in like underground piping like for water and sewer It's been used to identify places of damage on rail cars and these are all real-world scenarios that I've actually worked with client teams just to see hey Can we just take that? Retrain Watson take the exact same code everything that we've done iterate on it slightly because some of them needed They had different requirements different use cases But can we take that and can we make it work for all these other scenarios and answers? Yes, and you know how long it took me to go from this one to those other ones each one including trading the data Watson was about four hours. So You think about the impact that that can have on just having people visualize What it can mean for their particular use cases if you know it ended up being very powerful, but It didn't stop there. So if we go back to the insurance use case We started with that and said hey look we can do something really cool here. Oh, yeah so the train the train room was different, but Rust there's two use cases where I use rust and I use my data set for it, which was mine By default the visual recognition service doesn't say this is a rust classifier. This is a hail classifier This is some of the classifier each IBM client Owns their own training data. So they provided me with Images that are positive and negative of the condition they wanted to train on and said hey can we make it recognize this and so you Use the visual recognition service you train the service and the custom classifiers to be able to identify that the different types of content that's within there so That answer okay, so like if I'm an insurance company a insurance company B can't come and like start using all this stuff So I mentioned that like that's not where it stopped because that particular use case We built on top of everything that was done in that first iteration. It was just analyzing those images and turn it into an actual real world Implementation so let's go ahead and take a look at that now if I jump over to my browser here and This is kind of how it evolved from that initial first proof of concept to this is a much more mature version of it and this is actually a Essentially not just proof concept, but a functional prototype that we created with the specific clients in mind Where it's being operated from the perspective of an insurance adjuster where they're going to go in They're going to fly around a property after the insurance the homeowner has called and made a claim saying hey We need to check this out because I had a damage from it from a storm They're going to go they're going to fly the drone around take pictures 50 to 100 Images images of a property and then we're going to analyze those to see what kind of information can be extracted and this is why I say it can be transformative to an industry because Rather than spending half a day of an adjuster physically climbing on top of a roof and you know, which is inherently unsafe and also Time-consuming and a very manual process we can scan a property in 15 minutes use the Watson services to be able to Analyze for damage and then it can also be all kept historically so we can easily reanalyze so as we train our different pieces of The visual recognition service so they come in they upload their images from the inspection and this is where You know if this image might look familiar We're able to come in and we can view all the images of a property and examine for incidents of hail damage And if you look here at these little black spots are the ones that I was talking about But it didn't stop there because this was all based on that evolutionary set of code which is all no JS and On cloud foundry You know it just kept snowballing so let's say well What if we want to add photogrammetry which I mentioned earlier, which is 3d object reconstruction? We've now got 3d point clouds that are generated from those collection of images that are available here in the web interface and You know I cannot just look at a recreation of the structure but I can also come in here because we have all the metadata when these were captured and Start extracting measurements because they're Geo referenced Point clouds that because we have all that information captured and we're using our processes that were set up and all orchestrated through the no JS apps in order to be able to kick off these analysis processes So I'm I know I'm starting to run low on time here. So I'll try and speed it up myself How this works now it all started as that simple no JS app, but that evolved dramatically So we've still got no JS app running in cloud foundry That's where the user is uploading their images those images are then being pushed off There's cloud and instead of using the images as attachments to cloud it in which it was in the very first version Application it's being pushed to cloud object storage, which is essentially an s3 compatible API for Media storage basically whatever kind of file you want that's being pushed up there, but The code for analyzing images I actually took out of cloud foundry because I was thinking like we're doing heavy analysis on a lot of images and put That on to what's called a bare metal server on bluemix and that's instead of a virtualized Instance it's a physical dedicated box that I have provisioned for my account And I think I've got like 64 gigs of memory 3 GPUs because in addition to all the image Breaking up into smaller images, which doesn't require that much computing process We're doing the photogrammetry operations and that's where it's taking all those images so 50 to 100 images and it's starting to generate the geo reference 3d models from those and using that You know We're able to achieve the solution which I just showed you but it all started through that iterative process of just taking an idea Saying hey, wouldn't it be cool if we could do this as a node.js app and it literally just built from there and That node.js code was partially on cloud foundry part of it moved from cloud foundry to an orchestration server this running on bare metal Which is kicking off the wants analysis which is kicking off the photogrammetry and again We're pushing that back into cloud it and then everything is available through a web-based interface Which is still on cloud foundry and I can scale up or down instances. However. I need because it's all cloud foundry based and all the Resources that everything I've just shown you there resources for it here I'll tweet this out. I was Andy Trice on Twitter so that if you want to read more about it You can definitely do so particularly cloud foundry apps on bluemix serverless functions with open-wisk on bluemix bare metal servers Kubernetes clusters Lots in visual recognition that each one of these is actually a link the skylink demo Which is the first one I showed you which is a cloud connected drone I've released that as open source So that if you want to set up your own instance of it see how it works You can absolutely do so just by grabbing it off of github and then the insurance scenario if you'd like to learn more about that And how it works. I've got a video on there and I've got a ton of information so that if anybody wants to learn more I'd love to be able to answer any questions that you have so with that. I think that's my last slide Yes, thank you. My name is Andy Trice and thanks for sticking around


The gatekeepers because in any social scene there are people who are the entrance way to that group and they're often people who are very social Social butterflies. They enjoy connecting people. They're outgoing They're open Right, and they they understand the scene or the group that they're working within and that's what I've done multiple times in my life When I first moved to Melbourne with my band We were nobody banned. We had a VHS tape of some grainy footage of us playing in some local pubs. We had a shitty demo CD and we had this A3 paper that I'd printed all the articles from the little tiny newspapers that said Decent funk band on their way up in the local scene and that was our proof We put this into a folder and that was our press kit and so when we first arrived To Melbourne we moved moved the band there all living out in the suburbs in a shitty house together trying to make it And we go around to all the bars and I'd hand it to the usually was the guy who poured the beers and booked the But the bands and we're like, oh, yeah, we're a local where a band we move from Canberra And you know give us a shot and more than once they literally just dropped it in the bin as You know in front of me and when they didn't they put it in a pile of 30 other demo CDs from every other wannabe band and we just couldn't get a gig and So I was really starting to lose it trying to think okay How are we gonna do this? I need to somehow differentiate myself from everyone else out there who's trying to do this And so I thought what's the band that is most like us stylistically and it is is the top of the scene It was a cool band at the time called Brown Hornet. They're lots of fun and I found out that their Their manager also worked as a barman at the local bar I found out roughly when he when he worked a little bit stalker-ish, but I was it was alright I went in on a Tuesday afternoon once and I introduced myself and I said hey man. Listen. I'm you don't know me But I've got a band we're from Canberra. We're pretty cool I know that doesn't mean anything to you right now But I'm really have a struggling trying to figure out the the music scene here and what I would love to do is buy you lunch and Sit down with you for an hour and pick your brains on how this works here. Would that be cool? So what I did is I came in and I offered something and asked for something at the same time and This it's interesting. I I'm now in that position of that bar manager today. I get Asked all the time guys just write me on Facebook and they just say there's this one girl And then they launch him to asking me for free seduction advice Yeah, or they say I want to be a dating coach. How do I how do I sign up and I'm like Jesus dudes Like to understand that if you want to approach someone who has who is in a an area much further along than you are You're gonna have to offer something straight away because they don't need you and that was what I understood that with that guy Is like, okay, I've got to offer him something. What have I got is being friendly and lunch?  Let's just buy me some beers and we'll have a chat if you want to bring some beers over I live around the corner come around after my shift Which thinking back now was a bit of a dodgy offer actually bring some drinks over? young boy and We'll talk But he was a nice man. He was a gentleman and so I did and I That's no no if we had just bring some alcohol over and we'll talk So I spent the last 20 bucks I had bought a six pack and I don't even like beer But I knew I'd have to drink it went around to this guy's house Sat down and I didn't just go here's your beer. All right, so I'm ready I Traded on the human currency of actually chatting and talking to him and figuring out what was going on in his life and what was what was of interest to him and here's a beer and And then I said so anyway Can you tell me about like what's the best way to get shows in town and he said alright, man You're doing it all wrong.  I said watch so just So happens that I do have one here put it on you listen. He said yeah, it's not bad Tell you what? What are you doing next Friday? I said anything you want And he said well easy if your band's free. I'm like we're free Then do you want to support brown hornet?  Yes All right And so it was from that position that we got our first gig straight from zero to supporting the best band of that type In the local scene and from there and he said very importantly said make sure you bring a few people down You know the the bar really it's really important to the bar that you've got people drinking there So I made sure my band made sure that we talked We got every single person we knew in that city begged them and just blackmail them or whatever we had to do To get them to come to that show we managed to bring 40 people along Which meant the bar was happy the room was full We played a good show and so we had then balanced this initial debt And so that guy then said and the venue went okay those guys we can bank on them. Yeah, let's get him back. I Asked I offered I traded and then we collaborated and as a result trust was built and Leg up was was started All right This is a really important thing to understand when uh when I met Sasha at that first 21 convention He was chatting and he said where are you staying and I said I out in fuck knows where and he said why don't you just come And he said like this.  He said yeah took him down and I bought him breakfast as all gentlemen should in the morning And he said what do you know after you I said no no you saved me a hundred pounds last night I know like I'm just gonna buy you breakfast and that was again what I could by that time I had this implanted as part of the way that I do things in life All right I ask whenever I want something if there's somebody that I need something from I go and I ask them And then I make sure whether or not it's immediately or whether it's soon that I balance that by giving something back to them Something that is of value to them because in the ideal situation you want to be like the Godfather Which is where you've got heaps of a currency that people find really valuable that's really cheap for you to give away All right, so I because then you have the most leverage in life If you have lots of something that everyone wants it doesn't cost you much to give it away And it's very valuable to other people that means you can afford to Take chances on all sorts of people by throwing these pennies out and seeing when people give stuff back in return and All of you have those currencies now whether or not you understand it or not because simple stuff like a smile Like a clear look in in the eye and a proper handshake from asking somebody from it for the difference between asking Somebody how you've been to tell me what's going on for you lately and actually listening. That's real currency People care about that it makes a difference because now they feel significant. They feel heard they feel understood And then there's all sorts of other ones advice my entire life livelihood is based around a currency It is really cheap for me to give away which is advice on how to get women Because I can keep branding and spewing it out indefinitely and people pay me many thousands of dollars to learn it because it's incredibly valuable to them and And so for the guys that are trying to step out of their small town or out of the or move away from a job that they hate Or move into social circles, which are more dynamic where there's more interesting things happening where there's pretty girls and fun parties And all that stuff happening You need to understand that you're going to have to trade your way up to it a couple of years ago to Austrian young guys 22 year old guys contacted me Because somewhere on my website. I completely forgotten we had a section of like employment the natural lifestyles employment and We we put on there that we were looking for media guys camera guys and editors and I'd forgotten about this And I got this email from these guys saying that hello My name is Dominic and Alex and we are two Austrians and we are very efficient and we would like to come and work for you We are good with cameras and web design and so on and they made an offer to me And I ignore them not because I'm nasty just because I usually ignore everyone the first time they contact me because I know that mostly They don't ever contact again. They don't want it bad enough if a guy applies to become a dating coach with me All I say is Send me three articles that you've written about or you write three articles about your philosophies and send me three Videos of you talking to girls and in all the years that I've been doing this only one guy has ever done that Tony Solo and that's why he's a coach All right, because I test them to see okay What currency have you got to give to me and do you actually really care and really want this? so I Ignored these guys for a while and then one day we realized that we really needed some photos right now And we needed a photo shoot photo shoot done We were living at Budapest at the time and then I went oh, there's those guys in Austria I keep bothering me and so I wrote to them. I said Can you be in Budapest on Saturday? And we need to a photo shoot and so you would have to book us a studio We don't have any cameras bring some cameras and That's it and they made it happen these guys rocked up So it came from vietta arrived in Budapest went to this photo shoot. It was good We looked afterwards. I was like okay These guys did what they say they would do and they they're competent at their job and they're fun and interesting guys to be around Okay, cool. Now you're interns Two years later those guys are traveling around the world with us flying drones over New York City Getting to hang around with arguably the best seduction crew that ever walked the earth Having a fucking amazing lifestyle and it was only a month or two ago that one of them admitted to me that when they came To Budapest they had never done a studio photo shoot before When they said they they were photographers They were Instagram photographers Yeah, they were they were guys who took some photos of each other in the park doing these kinds of things You know, they'd never done that All right, but they had the balls and the audacity to like pitch something to somebody that they weren't quite ready for But to pull it off because then he said as soon as they I said yes and but next Saturday They spent that week like researching on the internet and like putting a like Butcher's paper on the wall and trying to figure out how to do a studio photo shoot and made it happen enough to fool us All right, so at the end of it We're like those pretty good these guys good photographers and since then they've become excellent photographers amazing Amazing at the skill of infill photography, which is a really difficult skill of being out of film from the hip boss looking at your phone to try and capture seduction in field And great at flying drones, and they're awesome now. We're creating really amazing content. So It's not once again. It's these these were the guys that were people people They were guys that had audacity and humility and who offered something to somebody who didn't need them and as a result Got to jump in way up the top of where they like the alternative of being 22 and trying to figure out all of the Entrepreneurship stuff that I have figured out to be able to figure out all of the seduction stuff that this crew has Would literally have taken a decade and instead they get to supercharge that right to the top if you want to be An entrepreneur you want to be a guy who's living outside of the matrix and and is unplugged from the general status quo You don't have to be the boss and you don't have to do it alone All right That's that's something that is important to know that you can if you can jump in On a particularly on something that's on its way up right a group of people or a business Or a you know a social crew that is on the up That's a really good place to get in on it because once they've made it then then it's necessary It's often hard. It's a jump in But to move in on a group that is coalescing that's a startup that's figuring out its Its role and that is creating success as a point where it's creating income or it's creating social success Then you don't have to do it all alone if you come in and go here's what I've got to offer and here's what I want Then you can jump multiple levels in a short amount of time nice guys offer and Don't ask for anything return. They hope they're going to get something in return our souls take and Don't offer in anything in return and Liam's going to talk more about that in his speech The slash and burn of like being someone who's charming and then getting stuff out of people and then moving on I could have done that with Sasha that night like yeah free night on the couch.  I'm out of here Yeah instead because I I mean it's not that he would have cared either way about the breakfast But because I bought him breakfast and then we both did an interview for each other straight away to put on each other's channels and then at that time I was having trouble filling the Euro tour and then he's like well I want to come on that and Steve said that I want to come on that and so they pulled together a Student or two and jumped on with me and then made that work for me and for them This meant that friendships were forged very very fast All right This is the way to create cultures and tribes of men very fast that have extreme loyalty to each other That have each other's back at every turn is through this is seductive economy Another thing that's important to note when you're starting to look at okay I want to start to create a culture create a group of men that Is proactive that is going out to meet girls or to create a lifestyle that's interesting is The ideal group is like the X-Men it has multiple characters in it because if you're hanging around just the same type of people Even if they're really proactive and interesting people nice people or whatever if they're all introverted or analytical thinkers Right if they're all in one sphere of work Then you are fairly limited by what it what you know who you know Right, and we see this most groups are fairly homogenous They're the same race the same age the same work that they're doing the same similar kinds of temperaments The groups that I have built and moved into and hung out with over the last ten years Have all sorts of different characters and that these are an ideal tribe of men


Okay, we're going to try for originality here in three ways. First, we're not going to talk about, hold on about what we did in the past. We're going to be projecting to the future. Secondly, we're going to be very parsimonious with quantitative data, but very rich in ideas. Third, we're going to pick up the pace and you're not going to be able to read the slides. You're going to have to talk to us at the break and after the meeting to find out what that was all about. That's not it. This doesn't count against my time. Okay, so I'm going to say a little bit about things we've done. I use we in an expansive sense, not RKS, but we at UCSF. And this is really going to be sort of a shout out and thanks to people we've worked with. So we've done RKS consultations and Mark Fletcher told you a little bit of that. And I want to thank Warnley and Barrow for really doing those. We've worked with contracts and grants, Eric, Liam and his group to do, to help with the speed up in contracts and grants that Clay talked about. We've tried to work with, we've worked with John Heldins and his group on the IRB electronic submissions process, which has really made things more efficient. And what we've tried to do is be, however you want to say it, the support, the facilitator, the catalyst, the cheerleader and really help other people do things that will make for real changes and how research is done here. So things we're still doing, multi-site IRB review, trying to make that more efficient so there's less downtime for sponsors and investigators. Alan Vanouk, John Heldins, Lisa Denny and Peter St. Wecker have been really working on that and things have happened and things will happen more. We're trying to really implement plans on having an independent IRB, be the sole IRB to review multi-site trials that UCSF participates in. Oh, it really did work. So we're going to really look in the future and we're going to ask you to think big. Okay, thanks Peter, it did work. What things would we like to do in the impossible dream? First is to try and revamp or improve regulatory training. And one thing we're definitely doing is the responsible conduct of research course, which I direct, which all NIH funded grantees, trainees have to take as an additional funding. Rather than just giving it once a year, we are going to do it online, just like we've done any time. And the question is can we do more? Can we do some CHR training online? And we're going to work with John Heldins' group about that. What's this? This is your data. This is something called process mapping. You're going to have to ask Deb Grady about it. She's wildly enthusiastic about it. That's a way to make the research process more efficient. But I'm going to skip her slide because it's too much of my time. Okay, so what is this? It's YAS, and you can talk about what does that have to do with the impossible dream? We'll talk about that at the break. What would we like to do? One thing I think we'd really like to do is to try and help with the federal government's proposal to totally revamp the regulations for human subjects protections. Your good friend, the common rule, is going to undergo a real facelift and revision, major surgery. And there's an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking. They're trying to solicit comments. I know that UCLP, among others, is taking a lead on that. I know John Heldins and Elizabeth Boyd are going to be coordinating that. But I want to think really beyond that. I'm going to skip over what the actual questions, issues they're dealing with are. Everything is on the table. What can CTSI do to help get ideas to the federal government to try and make this regulatory system better, which means less burdensome, more efficient, and also not give up protections for human subjects? So right now, most people think the system is too burdensome. It over-regulates low risk research. Maybe it doesn't do a great job with the really cutting edge controversial research. How to make it better? Clay, maybe the CTSI national program can be an independent voice to try and get to HHS. Many of the faculty here play major roles in professional societies. I would suggest that those groups ought to play a strong role in responding to this independently of what UCSF, UCLP do. And finally, our community outreach program, our community partners, that's a voice that really needs to get heard in this discussion. So what can we at CTSI do to help do more than just what's going to happen anyway through UCLP? I'm done. I've got 30 seconds. Thanks, Bernie. Sam? So Bernie, best presentation of the night so far, but your song choice was so yesterday. My daughter said the same thing. If you were consulted by HHS, which you probably will be, what is the one big idea that you would give them for redoing the rule that you think would make the biggest impact? My kids are big fans of Homer Simpson. I think it's a mistake to try and write regulations today that will still be sensible five years or certainly 20 years in the future. I think they need to back off from the idea of making prescriptive regulations. They need to put a lot more emphasis on guidance, which can be changed without going through the rulemaking process. I think they have to allow their controversial issues in research ethics. And I think you have to set up a process by which people can discuss those and best practices in mind, rather than try and do it all upfront. As you know, Sam, when we were trying to write regulations for the California stem cell initiative through CIRM, we purposely didn't try and write everything in advance because we knew, although we had the brightest people in California helping to write those, we weren't smart enough to figure out what we needed to be able to do to oversee five years in the future. Hey, Bernie, maybe this is a good place to draw attention to your chorus and just thank the folks in the chancellor's office that have made all this progress that we've seen so far in the related issues. I can do it with you if you want. Right, so there's a big emphasis from the chancellor's office and the school of medicine to try and do more to take advantage of the internet for teaching. And I think one thing that all of us hate writing in the shuttles, and to go to one place at one time is really hard to do. And so I think the idea is to try and have, for example, discussion sections that are online, asynchronous, and not necessarily all in the same place, and to make it active and to actually replace some of the lectures we tend to give in these courses with small group interactions that are case-based to really get the students engaged. I think the idea is that it's not a matter of our transmitting information to the students, it's a matter of getting them excited, thinking about it, discussing them themselves. And the chancellor and the school of medicine have both contributed resources to make that happen across the campus, and CTSI has actually added to that and targeted it. Yeah, and I just also want to draw attention to the fact that it really was true that three years ago, the major issue that was raised at this retreat was the difficulty in getting contracts done. When that was mentioned here, there were all sorts of cheer. We gotta fix this. And under the leadership that we have, so under Jeff and Suzanne, Elizabeth Boyd, Eric Liam, Jim Carriacus, John Heldins, not only have we seen that dramatically improve in a short period of time, but also that our handling of IRBs improve and also the attitude change about the importance of these time points to investigators across the campus. So that's, I think, tremendous progress. If our retreat helped to spark that, great. If we can help to get faculty support behind these things, great, but it was really the hard work done by you all that made that happen. So thank you very much for all that effort. Great, and thank you, Bernie. Great presentation.


Thank you to all the organizers of this meeting, including Kathleen Kibler. I'm very happy to be speaking to you today about the Triangle of Trust. I have no disclosures except I do have to disclose that I am a huge fan of high performance teams and high performance communication and those that use all their skill and grit to do their best to achieve great patient outcomes. At the end of a long week I sometimes like to sit back and reflect on the cases we've done and the things that went well or didn't go as well as they could have and kind of just absorb that. A few years ago I was thinking about a particular week and I thought to myself you know I really love doing this job and I was thinking about the things that made me love that job and I had this this intense appreciation for our team and how everyone comes together to do their best every day and the group the team comprised of the surgeon anesthesiologist and perfusionist has this intense connection and collaboration and great communication that really makes the job fun and it really makes our outcomes better. We take great care of patients when we collaborate intensely like that. The intraoperative contributors to outcomes and congenital heart surgery include three elements a great operation precise anesthetic and hemodynamic management and the conduct and execution of cardiopulmonary bypass that's deliberate and physiologic. The team that brings that to you includes the surgeon the anesthesiologist and the perfusionist and they make up what I like to call the triangle of trust. No one person can manage the surgery the anesthesia and hemodynamic management in the perfusion alone. We must rely on and support one another to achieve the aspired outcomes. Today we're going to explore three elements of the triangle of trust they include collaboration communication the response to the unexpected and then we'll look at some examples of the triangle in action. Collaboration involves the whole team working together with a common purpose and that involves respect shared standards and trust. These are this is respect for individuals and their contribution to the effort respect for the team and the mission this is critical. We also hold shared standards for all aspects of intraoperative care that includes bypass management blood product management basic anesthetic management and operative conduct and everybody in the team has to know how we do it and they have to live it and they have to breathe it. The third thing is trust and that's really really important this has to be part of the culture it's intentional and everyone needs to know that everyone is there to provide excellent care for the patient and also to support the team. Planning is essential and it involves a whole group before a case we need to know what the operative plan is what the cannulation sites and cannula selection will be what the anticipated depth of cooling whether we'll need special bypass bi-pass techniques like um integrate cerebral perfusion deep hypothermic circulatory arrest blood product management strategies and whether we're going to plan for an early or delayed extubation. Now for unusual or complex cases this kind of planning may take place weeks in advance we need to make sure that everybody on the team knows what the techniques we're going to use and make sure that that seems like a good idea and this kind of preparation allows high performance in a new situation. Some examples of these kind of complex cases include an 800 gram baby undergoing an arterial switch operation a five kilo baby undergoing an avisceptal defect repair without the use of any blood products or a patient with hemophilia a undergoing an arch augmentation. During cardiopulmonary bypass is when a lot of the collaboration happens. While we're on bypass the perfusionists and the anesthesiologists are working together to optimize everything optimize flow optimize pressure optimize the nears optimize the hematocrit make sure that everything is going smoothly and if things don't look so good we try to adjust them and and make things look good. If we need to involve the surgeon once appropriate steps are taken we can do that and maybe we'll adjust things after that. As one perfusionist I know is fond of saying I like to make it that the certain so the surgeon forgets that we're on bypass. Communication is very important to high performance teams and this is no exception communication can be disorganized and and disorderly or it can be concise and perfect. We want to make communication in the operating room less like a dog playing telephone and more like a fighter pilot flying in formation. Verbal communication should be clear loud scripted so that it's reproducible among teams and a read back should be employed the read back helps to confirm the accuracy and the receipt of the information. Communication is a lot easier in an environment that is quiet controlled organized and preferably there should be a line of sight between team members. The trust comes up again people need to have the psychological safety to be able to speak up they need to be comfortable to be able to raise concerns and that's something that has to be fostered and grown. Now another place that the Triangle of Trust really helps is in the response to the unexpected. This is the box and I like to talk a lot about the box and for me the box includes three things it includes a surgical field the physiologic monitors and the bypass monitors. When you know what's supposed to be in the box you can recognize when things start to deviate from the normal when you can recognize the things that deviate you can bring them back into the box before a situation gets to be unrecoverable or harm occurs. Some urgent intraoperative situations in which the Triangle of Trust and working well within this team helps to improve outcomes include a patient with Williams syndrome or a rest after induction of anesthesia, cardiac injury during sternotomy or a thrombose systemic depulmonary artery shunt in the pre-bypass period. These are all situations in which excellent collaboration, communication and response optimize performance and patient outcome. Emergency cases are also handled a lot better within this framework. When the routine is indeed routine it's easier to execute on the fly and that helps also to improve outcomes. Regular debriefings after cases or stressful situations and regular meetings are also critical this helps to that we can provide feedback and receive feedback we can grow we can improve and also the regular meetings helped so that we can disseminate information about new ideas medications equipments practice changes so that everybody is aware and there are no surprises. Now is the triangle in action the first case is a story about planning and execution it's about a nine-year-old child who is presenting for a cardiac operation on cardiopulmonary bypass and this patient had sickle cell trait. Now we know that cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass expose patients to precipitating factors for sickling but yet there's no stance that everyone believes in about how to treat them some people do nothing nothing unusual some people do a partial exchange transfusion to decrease the amount of sickle cell hemoglobin and some people do a full exchange. Our programmatic stance is to do a full exchange when initiating cardiopulmonary bypass to avoid sickling at all and the possible catastrophic outcomes. So we started planning days before the case we have a planning tool where we make calculations based on the percent hemoglobin s pre-operatively what the hematocrit is and what the hematocrit is that we want on bypass we figured out what the prime was going to be we ordered blood we talked about dosing and redosing medications including anesthetic managed anesthetic medications anti-fibrinolytics and antibiotics and we also discussed the monitoring of hemoglobin s and coagulation intra-operatively. Now when we started the the exchange we did that as we were going on to bypass we exsanguinated the patient into this bucket and then started the flow and started to flow and started the flow and then we were on full bypass we took out about two and a half liters of blood from the patient and then replaced it with our prime. When you look at the lab values you would see that we started with the hemoglobin s of 39 point something and we ended with one that was about 2% and so that is a very successful exchange transfusion. When you listen to this video though the cool thing is you can hear Blake talking and you hear communication that is concise that is informative that is clear and that is all you can hear on the video. And there's no drama it's excellent communication and it was a successful transfer exchange transfusion. This is not something we do every day but it really seemed like it was. Another opportunity to put the triangle into action is during the titration of anigrade cerebral perfusion. We use anigrade cerebral perfusion to perfuse the brain through an arterial cannula sewn onto a shunt onto either the retinominid or the carotid artery and so the brain is able to be perfused during arch augmentation like during a Norwood operation or during repair of a hypoplastic aorta. During anigrade cerebral perfusion the perfusionist and the anesthesiologist get together they look at the nears they look at transcranial Doppler flow the mean arterial pressure and we use our collective experience to titrate flow to where we want it. To be able to titrate flow this way everyone has to know how we do it what we titrate it to and that takes a great deal of communication and also preparation and the shared experience it's something that has to be taught and practiced. When you have low nears on cardiopulmonary bypass that's low cerebral oxygenation the anesthesiologist and perfusionist often get together to try to optimize the nears get it better and that includes things like increasing the flow, increasing the PACO2, increasing the mean arterial pressure, dropping the temperature if indicated and increasing the hematocrit. All of these things are communicated to the surgeon and if those things aren't working sometimes you need to look at the SVC cannula and make sure drainage is okay or the arterial cannula to make sure that it's well positioned. We all know that in many pediatric cardiac surgeries we can do it without giving blood products and when you do that you're kind of stepping out of your comfort zone a little bit and you have to have a shared way of doing it. You have to know what our standards are going to be, how we're going to improve things and have a great deal of comfort with each other that everyone is doing the right thing to try to get the patient through safely and sometimes that involves you know managing and doing without blood and sometimes that involves making the wise decision to transfuse. Lastly comes early extubation during a case where we are planning to extubate early that is in the operating room at the end of bypass the perfusionist and the anesthesiologist have to work together to control the anesthetic depth and poor communication in this area can lead to some things that we don't want like awareness under anesthesia, recall or dangerous patient movement and so that's something that really has to be worked out and checked on and a strategy developed for. I hope that I've been able to communicate to you what the Triangle of Trust means to me and my team, the Triangle of Trust that's comprised of the surgeon, anesthesiologist and perfusionist and how it contributes to improve patient safety and optimize patient outcomes. I thank you for your time and attention and again I thank the organizers for having me.


Do you want to know how you know you can trust everything that I say? Because look at all these books I got! Everybody, this is Chris from the Rewired Soul where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution. And if you're new to my channel, my channel is all about mental health and what I like to do is pull different topics going on in the YouTube community to try to teach you how to improve your mental and emotional well-being. So if you're into that kind of stuff, make sure you subscribe and ring that notification bell. I'll be back real quick before I jump into this Tanamangu Mojyu situation. Really exciting! The Discord server is at like over 500 people and we got so many different chats in there and amazing people like if you haven't joined yet, you need to get up in there. We have specific chats for like eating disorder recovery, addiction recovery, trauma, just everything people share like there's a voice chat in there that people are hanging out in. Like what are you waiting for? Come on in there, hang out with us. Oh yeah! I don't know what happened. Okay. Like Tristan, should I tell them? Should I tell them the chain of events that happened? Okay. Here's the chain of events that happened. So I'm just chilling making me and Tristan some dinner. Oh my God!  What? Tan exception! Okay. Anyways, so I'm sitting there making dinner and I'm looking for you through YouTube to see what we're going to watch. So this video is like getting recommended to me and it's something about Tanamogu being in a fight and we click on it and apparently it's a woman who was involved in this situation and I was trying to follow along with it and it made absolutely no sense. So because I'm a curious guy, I went to go see if Tana talked about it and lo and behold, Tana did. So as I'm cooking dinner, I decided to watch a Tanamogu video which I don't watch and this video is not about her fight. I could make an entire video about how Tana is not a psychic. She's just a hot mess and these things happen to people who act cray-cray. But yeah, this video is more about enabling because the intro of this video, it got me kind of riled up. The whole first part of her video was her new merch line called Canceled. But before almost getting in a fight, I have been promoting the f**k out of my new Canceled merch. As you guys know for the past month, every single day, I've been working so hard on creating the perfect merch capsule. Not only the designs and working with up-and-coming artists to make graphics that I love, but making sure every single item is the quality and shape and size and fit of clothing that I wear every single day. But thank you to everyone over the Black Friday weekend who's already picked these up. I do not expect so many of you guys just like from my Instagram and Twitter to just go right away and buy it and you guys literally blew me out of the water. I haven't seen merch sales like that in so, so long. So thank you so much.  Let's talk real quick. You didn't think you were going to click on a video about Tana Mojo and learn about neuroscience, did you? Did you? Admit it. Okay. So check it out. Today we're going to be talking about enabling. We're going to be talking about positive and negative reinforcement. We're going to be talking about famous psychiatrists. I'm even going to give you an amazing book recommendation.  Like she talked about how many people are already ordering it. She's pushing her merch. I know, I know she's selling a ton of it.  This is less than a year, less than a year from the Tana Con debacle, right?  Like let's, let's talk. Let's be honest. Just me and you real quick. There are people who still haven't gotten refunds yet. There are people who flew halfway around the world to go to Tana Con, all right? There are people who were like, what am I supposed to do and all sorts of things. And Shane Dawson did an amazing job doing meetups and stuff like that while Tana was out partying that night, you know, but she was really just, you know, trying to do damage control or whatever it is. Like there are so many people that got screwed over by that thing who are now potentially buying merch, all right? Like let that process for a sec, second everybody. Like this is terrible when it comes to reinforcement. Like I mentioned this in one of the Jake Paul videos. I've mentioned this in a few videos. We are the reason that people like Tana exist, okay? So let's talk about neural pathways real quick and the reward center of the brain. So there's this beautiful little chemical inside of each and every one of our brains and it's called dopamine. When we get something that we like, we get a little spritz of dopamine. You know why? Do you know why? It was very important for our evolution because it told us to do that thing again. So there's this guy named Dr. Judson Brewer, amazing man, and he calls it the habit loop, okay? So our brains are set up in a way where there's a trigger, a behavior and a reward, right?  That lays down a memory.  But this works for other things too. So Tana Mojo screws up, she makes a lot of money, her brain is wiring in a way that's saying, okay, screw up, sell people stuff and that's okay. Do you see what I mean? Like imagine this and this is, again, this isn't a video for Tana. This is a video for all of you, like especially parents out there. Imagine my son, imagine my son screwed up, maybe he got in trouble at school or something like that and he never apologized, he never corrected any of his behaviors and I bought him toys. I am teaching my son that if he screws up, he is going to get rewarded. Think about that for a second, like this is not good. So when it comes to people like Tana or Jake Paul or Logan Paul or whoever it is, like we are reinforcing this behavior. I'm gonna show that clip. All right, welcome back. But yeah, this is enabling. So real quick, like go check out this book by Dr. Judson Brewer, it's called The Craving Mind. Anybody who's watching this video, you need to get that book. He dives into the neuroscience of positive and negative rewards. He's done a lot of extensive research and done brain scans when it comes to social media, when it comes to food addictions, when it comes to smoking, when it comes to alcohol and drug addictions. Like there's so much in there and he also talks about developing good habits. Like if you are somebody who is trying to develop good habits, please, please do yourself a favor and get this book, The Craving Mind. But anyways, back to enabling and this positive reinforcement, like as somebody who is an addict, this is something that kept me in my addiction. This is why we need to talk about enabling. We need to keep talking about enabling because a lot of you don't understand that you are enabling people, okay? So for example, in my addiction, I was still getting money from my parents, right? Every time I would call them to borrow money, they would give me money. My friends would loan me money. My friends would hang out with me. My parents would invite me over, all these things. So my brain was training itself in a way. This isn't their fault, okay? This is not their fault. But my brain was training itself in a way, saying like, Chris, it's okay if you keep screwing up because things are still going well. I did not turn my life around until that stuff stopped, all right? So I want you to picture a world real quick where Tana's merch sales went down, where Tana subscriber numbers went down, where these things happened. Do you think, do you think because of that negative reinforcement, she might start changing her behaviors because this is an absolute mess. Like, there's so many things wrong and I've touched on this in other videos, but I was telling Tristan, so in the YouTube analytics, you can like see your demographics and you can see your age groups. And I'm sitting there watching this. I'm like, she knows how young her audience is and the stuff that she talks about this is just mind-blowing. Like, I wish I could see like, who the bulk of her audience is, but this goes back to a video that I just made about Eugenia Cooney. Like, as parents, you know, we need to be better monitors of like what our children are watching and know who they're watching, what are they watching it for, what are they learning and all that kind of stuff. Because at the end of the day, it is on us as parents, you know what I mean? But if I wanna do this, please, please, please for the love of God because I was talking to Tristan about this and I'm just curious. How many people, like just let me know in the comments, how many people who are 20 years old or older are subscribed to Tanimojo? Please let me know in the comments. That will help my research that I do. I don't know what kind of research it is, but I'm very curious about that. All right, but anyways, anyways, let me know down in the comments below too. Here's my question for you. Like, have you enabled poor behavior in somebody before? Do you think this is a reason why they haven't corrected their behavior? All right, let's have a conversation down below. All right, but anyways, again, go check out that book, The Craving Mind by Dr. Judson Brewer. I'm gonna link it down in the comments below. Come join our Discord server. That'll be down in the comments in the description below. All right, but anyways, that's all I got. If you liked this video, please give it a thumbs up.

Hey, what's up folks welcome back to another layer by layer in today's tutorial We're going to take a look at the sketch drawing toy So this is a snap fit case that has the tft feather wing and a feather in the back there This is a really fun Sketch drawing toy inspired by an etch a sketch style project. So with the display You can draw pixels with these two potentiometers And what's cool is that you can use this switch to do a pen up and down So then you can move a cursor and kind of draw separate shapes That's really neat. And then you can use the center button to clear. So that's really fun I got a built-in holder for the slide switch so you guys might know that from a couple of my cases and I have a snap fit case, right? So I have two halves that snap fit together so you can open them by just squeezing these two like that You can get that open there. I Have a pretty beefy battery here, but this is the RP 2040 feather nice pink addition and The tft feather wing here. This is the 2.4 inch version So what's cool about this is that instead of attaching? The tft feather wing to the case itself. It's actually attached to a PCB bracket This green thing over here. So the people the PCB bracket allows you to attach and secure the tft feather wing With these these nylon M2 five sized screws and hex nuts. We'll take a look at those in the CAD But it's a really good method to make it so you can have this snap fit case and not have any screws exposed So that's cool. The back here has a built-in button pusher So you can see that this little shape here allows you to press This down and it flexes and it just about hovers over the on-board reset switch So it actually hits that when you press that so that's a cool way to Reset hard reset the board without having to take it apart There's some extra bits here. So you see that there's some snaps here There's one there and there's a bit of an end-stop flat edge here For that for that bottom another cool feature is that I have these these vent lines here And that's all done with the the thin extrude And it's a really good way to kind of get a nice grill and do some styles stuff to it and it actually helps flex this open and It allows you to print a little bit faster because you're not having to print the whole thing So that's kind of a neat thing. So let me go ahead and close this up Just gonna make sure that none of the wires are being kinked or that just snaps like that You have a nice large opening here for the USB connector on the feather and then Let me turn it on So that that built-in Holder there is nice. And then if you want to reset without having to open it you can do that Nicely, cool. All right. So there you go. Let's start drawing stuff. These are good right layer Layer, but that's gonna take a minute any hoodle. Let's take a look at the the learn guide and Fusion 360 so let's jump into into that so you can download and build your own project here It's got all the all the files and all the instructions and all the code on putting this together So if you want to Get notified when these are back in stock and you can do that or you can get a feather if they're in stock already But yeah, that's where all the the files are and the tutorial lives here. So I'll have a link in the description of the video Cool. So let's look at fusion So the project is available to download same place. I'll have a link in the description But the first thing I want to note is the PCB bracket. So let me hide some of these things here so we can take our bottom here And our top hide those and just kind of show the PCB bracket. So you can see here that the feather tft has four mounting holes and The mounting holes are in close proximity To the display itself So the one of the better ways to mount it is to have the head of the screws coming from this side Because when you try to have these hex nuts on the other side here They can Intersect with the bezel of the display and that could damage your display So you want to be very careful when attaching this PCB To anything else. So I found that this method works fairly well and Just be very careful with the the bezel of the display. So one of the ways to attach The PCB to the 3d printed bracket is to have these hex nuts in between In between them really because if I didn't and if I had this area It would start to crash into some of the components that are close to the edge Notably these capacitors here. So if I didn't have these nuts there you wouldn't be you could easily damage not easily but you could damage the onboard components and And That's that's always a problem there So you just want to be careful with that you can see here that you would also be getting close proximity to the The onboard micro SD card holder and in the on-off switch So this method worked out really well and instead of having Like a built-in standoff for the bracket I'm just using hex nuts because they're already there and they are always going to be consistent Length and height. So that's why I haven't been there. So they worked out pretty what pretty good there Now the only other screws that are here are these force m3 screws on the corner And that actually gets fastened into the top So that's how this is working. You have the the PCB bracket get secured to the top half and you can't see the screws here because they're kind of hidden there, but if I get rid of The hardware you can see here that the there's plenty of depth for that standoff and This standoff is built into the corners of the of the top half of the of the case and they're about eight millimeters tall So plenty of clearance for the display. So let's take a look at how much that helps create this sort of a bezel thing So when you have those standoffs Keeping your PCB bracket elevated you can do these kind of fun geometry To create kind of a built-in bezel here for the display So that's kind of a cool way because without that you would have a lot of gap that would reveal some of the edges and To get rid of that. I just added This nice beefy bezel and I added some chamfered edges or drafted edges To make it look like it's at a 45 degree and it is and it prints out really well too. So That's cool one thing to note though when you are Creating a sort of a cutout for the display All the displays are going to be different even though the model is one-to-one accurate During the menu failure during the manufacturing process Sometimes it might get offset by a tenth of a millimeter or whatever So you always want to do a 3d printed test piece to show how much of the display you're actually revealing So I'm going to go over to the overhead and show How much offset I've added to the display and it's kind of funny because the The the project itself allows you to draw on the edge So this gives you an indicator of how much of the display the edge of the display you're showing So here you can see i'm drawing at the bottom And as I get to the right side and I move up I'm kind of I could offset that a little bit more And even though i'm already at the final stages of the thing. I thought it was okay, you know It's it's fine. It gets hidden a little bit there where you can still kind of see it So it's it's uh One out of the four Edges are are dead on but this is kind of a cool way to see am I am I showing enough am I revealing enough display But again every single tfd feathering is going to be slightly different because during the manufacturing process Folks have to have to use double-sided tape to stick the display itself to the pcb And it's not always going to be the same. There isn't a machine that does it like perfectly every time So at least with this product the tft feathering you want to be a little bit Um, you just want to be aware of how much you're revealing and how much you're showing off in the display Maybe you don't need to show all the display. Maybe you're doing rounded edges and stuff But just for this project you kind of want to be able to display all of the pixels Yeah, so that's kind of what I got going on there. Um, so just test it All right Cool now the next thing I want to talk about is the uh slide switch and how to create Or rather just to be aware of the the slide switch built-in thing for any project that needs an on-off switch And it's relatively small and it's a handheld. I really like using this uh this method Uh to getting a slide switch. Um Fitted inside here. So The slide switch is able to fit in here at an angle and it gets, um It's it's just kind of press fitted and it's it's friction fitted So that means you don't need any glue or screws to attach it because it really doesn't have any mounting holes But there are a series of walls that kind of keep The thing from being pressed out and you and the on the backside here You can see that there's a nice little opening with some drafted edges that allow you to access The little actuator on the built-in holder I have a full half an hour tutorial on how to put this together step by step I'll have a card in the description So click on those cards if you want to see that and I get uh get the whole recipe on how to design these Because they kind of have to be built into your case, which uh, which is fine But you could also make an external module too, which I also show in that video. So check that one out Um, yeah, just to be aware that it's pretty much the exact same dimensions and recipes So that's kind of what I what I always kind of go to when I want to have an on-off switch that's embedded like that Now the potentiometers the button and the the toggle switch they're all panel mounted So there's nothing really there as long as you have enough clearance around your component You should be fairly good Uh, one thing here though that I probably should have modeled is you see this uh, this big momentary button Normally come with the hex nut and that hex that could be kind of big So I was I got lucky where the hex nut just about started clipping uh, one of these Surfaces here for the built-in side switch, but I was able to get away with it. It wasn't too bad It was just a really nice tight fitting But I wish I had modeled that in here because then I would have maybe pushed us a little bit more So to have a little bit more clearance Um, but yeah, it's always a good thing to model um your hardware because then you can get a really good accurate you know representation of if your stuff's going to uh To intersect or not You can always get a good example of like as your screws are long enough or not Or are they too long right? cool So yeah, let's take a look next at how the two halves are snap fitting and one really good way to do that is to do a cross-section analysis So here looking at it from the side view You can see I have a little bit of a different going on here So on this side you can see I have these uh, the snap fit nubs And the little grabbers on the bottom And what I've done is I've made it so that it doesn't go across the whole surface or the whole length of the case It stops right here right before it starts getting to the uh to the usb connector because this would crash into the feather And that's a bad thing. So that's why I don't have it there let me get rid of uh the analysis the section analysis and just kind of reveal um the the The bottom half because the bottom half is really what has the main snaps I'll hide the hardware as well and the pcb bracket. So here we go So you see here that the left and the right sides are pretty symmetrical. It's it's a mirrored feature So whatever I did here is also on this side But you'll notice that I really I could have done that for this uh the bottom and the top surface But I really didn't need to um, so I just added one here And it's a custom length so it doesn't go across the whole length of it And I like to have these Corners open because it allows the case to be opened more easily a lot of the times you'll see my my sort of classic snap fit cases The snap fit geometry goes along the whole case and that's okay in some certain in some cases But for this one, I wanted to be very uh specific and I wanted to uh have those corners open So that's just easier to open so Now on this surface here, I don't actually have a grabber. I just have a end stop It's just a flat extrude that goes up and there's no tapered angles or anything. It just doesn't need that Um, so if I bring back the top you can see kind of how it Um how it's working there. So this just prevents the case from being uh slid From that way So it just stops that from happening there and then this this stop will stop it from over there that grabber there So that's kind of how that's working And then on the left and the right sides you can't open it because uh Both both both sides are acting on it. So that's uh, that's how it stays secured All right, so sometimes when you're making a snap fit case, you really don't need to uh Have it go across the whole thing be very specific and strategic about where you're going to place your grabbers Where you need them another reason I have it here the snapper on this surface Is because without it I originally just had a regular end stop And what happened was I would see this little gap in between the two Uh, so there there just kept being a gap there like that And so what I ended up doing was is adding that grabber there And that made it stayed secure shut and that's uh, that's a nice way to do it But I didn't really need it here because this area really didn't have a gap because none of the Uh, there's no components really there that are kind of preventing it from from kind of being opened So yeah, that's why I have it very specific on where I put my snaps Now another fun feature on the back here on the bottom half is this button presser And the way the button presser works is that it is designed to to have a little extrusion Uh cylinder and that cylinder hovers right above the feather The the reset button that's on the feather and luckily enough, um Just about all of the feathers have the reset button in the exact same location So for the what I showed you here on physically I have the rp20 40 feather and that tends to work fine because uh, hey the button's right there too It's off a little bit, but it's enough to still actuate it which is fine But with the m4 it's it's pretty perfect and accurate and I actually have a tutorial on how to Sketch this out and using the the thin extrude feature you can create these features Um, yeah Anytime I create this I always have to make the feature a little bit longer than I always think Because your finger it's kind of large and uh, whatever the length is here ended up working really good But with that Once I had that button presser and I wanted to add these these lines to create kind of event opening I had to be strategic about my lines because I don't want them to intersect because then it would just kind of fall apart, right? So, um, yeah, I just use the trim tool when I'm sketching and I just kind of massage The line so they're not Coming across of it. So they're actually two separate sketches and that way they are Independent from each other so you can see here my reset button pusher Is just the line and I use the extrusion line to extrude that out And then my my girls themselves Are are kind of done like that and I just did some offsets once I created it And then I really am a fan of the fillet rule where you can just say hey Hey fillet just just make a fillet on this On this feature because I have too many Edges to select so that's always a good thing too. Um, I'll quickly go to that and see if I can get to it The the fillet rule is always a nice one Oh, where are you fillet rule? There you are. So here's the fillet rule You can always go here under fillet change it to rule fillets and then where it says faces or features I just selected the one extrusion Which was extruding all these lines and I say I only want the fillets and I want the radius of two and that saved me Maybe an hour of having to select Shoes how how many edges is that select? I wish it would tell me how many edges it's doing But it doesn't and I don't have to know about it. I love this feature It's the best So huge shout out to the fillet rule one of one of my time-saving secrets But that's going to do it really. Um, it's a fairly simple case, but there are always some things to look out for Particularly like when you're working with a display like the tft feather wing You have some things to kind of just be aware of you can download the the 3d model for the tft feather wing Just be aware that there are no headers that are populated on there. Maybe you want to add your own So that's why I kind of have it free there But you do have the on board components like the micro sd card and the on off switch the reset button Some of the capacitors and of course the display with the bezel and everything so All right, there you go. Uh real quick. I'll show the learn guide again. You can get uh The full tutorial on how to build it all the parts there if they're out of stock You can of course sign up to be notified when they're back in stock Don't forget you could also check out the github repository and download all sorts of ater fruit models That's gonna do it for me until next time make sure to make a great day. Bye folks
