"Traumatic experiences as a child? I'm curious, is there anything like is there any beneficial about scaring yourself? I mean, it's fun. I really enjoy it, but is there anything valuable about it? Yes, that is actually what Margie is working on these days. It's kind of like fear therapy. So it's kind of like exposure therapy, but adding some of these like fun, thrill seeking self scaring elements. Because you kind of get a kick of confidence after you make it through a haunted house. You know, you're like, yes, I survived. I outrun the zombie. And some researchers think that that kind of manufactured fear can actually help you face real fears in your real life. When you make fear safe, it does allow you to lean into it and to face that you've confronted the fear that that physiological reaction you can keep going and essentially practice being afraid. So basically we're, you know, we've just confronted a horde of zombies, so we can face our coworker tomorrow. So obviously the island of the dolls is pretty creepy visually. But then there's this story, this myth behind it that makes it sort of sad and sorrowful and eerie. But is any do we know if any of that is true? How much of this do we know is actually real? So it seems like Don Julian was a real person who did live on the island and he did collect some dolls and have a fascination with dolls, but the thing about the girl being drowned in the canal, the thing about him finding her doll that's kind of weird legend takes over. Got it. I mean, the thing that it makes me feel like is it really speaks to the fact that we actually want to tell ourselves the spookiest version of these stories. Just like sort of leaning into that sense of being scared, I think that's how you end up with these elaborate spooky legends. Yeah, I mean, it would completely change my perception of the island if I learned that a company that manufacturers creepy stuff. Yeah, the island and decided to make it into a tourist destination. Totally. Totally. You know, I think it speaks a lot to just kind of the importance of storytelling and narrative in our culture in general. It does call to you to tell yourself the creepiest possible version of the story. It really does feel really good. Sure. Well, Johanna, thank you so much for taking me to this truly truly terrifying place. It was my pleasure. Thank you, Dylan. Thank you. If you like Johanna and I are one of these perverse people who gets a kick out of being scared or at least creeped out and you actually wanna visit the island of the dolls, you can. It takes a couple of hours to get there and it's best to begin your journey at embarcadero Cuomo in Sochi milko, which is about 17 miles outside of Mexico City. From there, you can hire a gondola or try at least to row you through the canals to get to the island and you will definitely know you're there when you start to see clumps of creepy dolls hanging and swaying in the wind.

"Helping guide us to this place today is Johanna Mayer, host of the podcast science fiction. Hi, Johanna. I'm excited to, well, I don't know. I have mixed feelings about where we're going today. But how are you doing? I'm good. And I genuinely don't know Dylan, how do you feel about scary, creepy places? Like are you drawn to these places? Or are you hell no keep me away from here at all costs? No surprise I'm definitely drawn to these places. I kind of love them. I have to say I am 0% surprised. Yeah. Yeah, how about how about you? I also love you. Yes. So why, why are we drawn to places like this? Why would someone pay 50 bucks to get locked inside a haunted house or chased by zombies? Why do people travel to a place like the island of the dolls? Part of me wonders if deep inside of us is some like yearning to escape the doldrum of like our cushy 21st century life. But that's just my personal theory. Sir, doctor sociologist about this, her name is Margie Kerr and she's known as a scarce specialist. In addition to doing research, she does consulting for these haunted house attractions to study why people were enjoying themselves, gives recommendations for how to up the scare factor, stuff like that. And she said that there's a ton of stuff happening in your brain when you scare yourself. Yeah. Endorphins, adrenaline, feeling bonded to the people you're there with. But she also said, there's this other benefit that's kind of tough to find these days. It forces you to be really grounded in your body in the present moment. You know, you're not thinking about what you have to do tomorrow. You're not thinking about bills, work, any of that. All of that disappears in your fully grounded in the moment. And there's something about that that people really like and enjoy and it feels good. And in terms of looking at the brain reactivity, it's very similar to what we see in instances like the runner's high. You're never in more of the moment than when you're running for your life. Exactly. I mean, yeah, I totally relate to that. It you are suddenly very attentive when you are in a place that you are uncomfortable or scared around. And you certainly, okay, like in a haunted house, people jump out at you and, you know, get that jump scare. But the island of the dolls a little bit different than that because it's not about that extreme environment so much as it is just like extremely creepy. Why are people drawn to that kind of eerie feeling? Creepiness is very different than scariness. And it's also been studied a lot less than fear. But researchers think what it comes down to is uncertainty. Because when you're being chased by a zombie with a chainsaw, you know exactly what is happening. And exactly what you should do, which is run away. But if you pull up to the Isla de Los menuca and suddenly you're just surrounded by a bunch of dirty dolls hanging from trees. It's a little murkier. Yeah. Mark, you told me that a sort of precursor to haunted house attractions would be like freak shows and oddities exhibits. P. T. Barnum ran a really famous one. And it would have just kind of unsettling stuff. Like a fishtail, stuck under a taxidermied monkey torso. And people would line up for this stuff. They would egg each other on, try to dare each other to get closer and investigate. I think the similar reason why we go to places that we think are haunted, which are typically places where there's a lot of history of tragedy and prisons or nursing homes or orphanages, all of these experiences that are unimaginable. So we see a tragic doll hanging from a tree and we do feel we feel a small sense of tragedy that something has happened and the way to reduce that paradoxically is to go closer to it to feel a sense of control over it. One of the things that's interesting about the island of the dolls is like, what is it about dolls in this case that are so unnerving? I mean, obviously they show up and haunted houses. There's a lot of spooky movies about dolls, but like how did they become part of the canon of creepiness? Okay, so I need to tell you my all time favorite story about creepy dolls, which I think please do. Come on. Are you enticed? I am ready yet. Okay, so a few years ago in California. Porcelain dolls just started showing up on random people's porches. And the thing that made it particularly creepy was that these dolls sort of resembled the children. Oh no. This is upset. So this is deeply upsetting right out of the gate. Oh man. Yeah. So, so the this made like a huge splash in the news because people are like, oh my God, is this a serial killer? Is something really bad going to happen? And then it turns out that it was just this old woman who attended church with all the families in these houses. And she thought that she was just leaving them like a sweet, cute little gift, and she heard about all of this news coverage and she was like deeply deeply and very sad. That story just really shows how much of a cultural feedback loop we have with creepy dolls, like we're supposed to see the mascara. So of course, we see them as scary. But it also kind of gets at the uncanny valley. The idea that creepiness comes from realisticness and blurred lines between human and not human. And dolls got a lot creepier in the early 1900s when manufacturers started doing things like adding eyes that clothes when they lie down. The blinky eyes, exactly like a real questionable move in dull innovation. And Mark you said that when things get really creepy is when our expectations don't match our reality. This is a doll and it's violating everything that we expect a baby to be doing. So for the island of the dogs, you know the babies are dirty. They look like they are very much endangered. And it's that juxtaposition between what we expect of a doll and what we're seeing. So we expect joy and innocence and vulnerability, but what we're seeing is something that is scary, something that might hurt us. So all of that tension and dissonance is what can generate that sense of just unease and creepiness. It's interesting to me because people have really different reactions to different things. I'm not actually particularly afraid of dolls. I have friends who like, if they saw a doll a block away with like turn around and go the other way. Why am I running towards some creepy doll in an alleyway while my friend is running the other way? Well, the research says that it's really not so much about personal choice. You know, your friend is not like choosing to be afraid of dolls. Because people have different chemical responses to fear in their brains. So one thing that happens is you get a big kick of dopamine from being scared. And some people just react more strongly to that dopamine and crave it and want that kick more than others. But a ton of it also has to do with how you were exposed to fear at a young age, like whether your first time feeling afraid was on Halloween with like goofy monsters and candy and costumes or were you actually having legitimate.

"Hey everybody, it is still in here. And as we are entering into the spooky season, I'm here to tell you a bit of a spooky story and joining me to tell this story is Johanna Mayer. Hi, Anna. Hello, Dylan. It's a spooky story, but it's also kind of a sad story. It is. And an eerie story. And well, a creepy story I would say. Well, well with that, let's begin. Deep in the canals outside of Mexico City. You'll find an island. And no one lives on this island, but it still draws a certain kind of person to it. You have to take a gondola to get there. And that's only if a gondolier will actually agree to take you. Because some flat out refused to go to the island. And if you do get someone to take you, as you paddle through these canals, all is quiet and still between these green grass banks and the waters. And when you reach this island, you step onto shore. What you'll see are hundreds of glassy vacant eyes. Staring right back at you. The island is called the Isla de Las manias, where the island of the dolls. And that is because it is covered in them. Dolls hang from the trees in groups. They're strung up along fences. They sway in the wind. Some of the faces are ancient and chipping away, some don't even have faces, one doll's pupils have worn entirely off, leaving only the whites of its eyes to stare at you. Hundreds of decomposing dolls are the only residents. Of this island. But there was a man who used to live there. His name was Don Julian Santana barrera. And legend has it, the doll's belonged to him. The story goes that one day, Don Julian found a little girl drowned in the canal. And shortly after, floating in the same spot, he found the girls toy doll. They say Don Julian began to fish doll after doll out of the canals and the trash. Some say it was to honor the drowned girl. Another say, it was to ward off her unsettled spirit. The story ends as eerily as it began. When Don Julian died, it was in the very same place where he found that drowned.

"I love that in on so many different levels because it's so necessary especially for black parents for parents of color is so vital and important that we have the space to show up in that way and for our children to have the space to do the same are.

And i refuse to buy them. And of course we love the disney princesses too. I know that that you know what people say. Let's just kids and blah blah blah. And i get it but it's different for black kids and so and it just is and i have a very diverse community who listens to this show and some people may not like me saying that but is that if the truth and so i am i refuse. You can watch a movie you can pretend to be also when you play with your sister if you want to. But i'm not getting the nightgowns and the toothbrushes. I'm not doing that.

That looked a little bit more like us like you know. Now i've been like you know we have a diaper baby hold of but it's interesting. You say that. Because i wondered about the print if other you know races or ethnicities. Were going to. You know that weren't necessarily lack moms or had black children whether they're biracial or whatever. It looks like if they were going to buy the print. You know i thought about that. I i was like maybe i shouldn't make you know so many different colors made. It was thought in my head. But i was like no. Of course. I'm doing it but now it's just going to be an experimental see as we've been under represented and had to buy what the now majority in of these prints have been now. I'm trying to see what that looks like in reverse. That wasn't the reason. I made it of course but i do believe that. A lot aren't willing to do that. You know what i mean. And that's fine but it's it just speaks to a deeper issue on. I'm black girls in society. You know what i mean and not to wear the as as as a badge of honor. You know what i mean. That's the thing that's the thing. The badge of honor thing. I guess we believe in diversity and inclusion and there are black people in the world why folks hispanic asian folks etcetera but we are black household and we want our children to feel like they are represented and that they are loved for you know how they look and how they think in all of these other you know great things but when you have a toddler are even a young charlie.

After Fatal Floods, Germans Look at How Climate Change Contributed
"To germany now where crews are cleaning up after the worst floods the region has seen nearly six decades more than one hundred sixty people have died. The damage amounts to billions of dollars. Now germans are asking what role climate change may be playing and how to keep this from happening again. Npr's rob schmitz has been out surveying the destruction. He joins us from the flood. Region near bonn. Hey rob emyr lewis. So i know you have been out. In one of the worst hit towns. You spent yesterday talking to people there. What are they saying about how this happened. Yes spoke to several yesterday. In the town of knowing of isla people who had suffered incredible damage to their homes. Dozens of people in this town died in this disaster and the one thing everyone was talking about was how unnatural all of the seem. The rain was nothing like anyone had ever seen. Before the way the tiny creek that runs through this town the are filled up from below a foot deep to twenty five feet deep in a matter of a few hours as water rushed down into this valley as spoke to resident martin larsen about this and he thought climate change was definitely a part of this but he also listed other culprits behind the severity of the flooding. Here's what he said. This type of flooding is not normal. This type of rain is not normal. The consequences of not for the main thing is probably infrastructure. Now you've probably been building everywhere where we hear you asphalted. Everything's paved the river straight. Yeah it's not bending back and forth. It's been manipulated by man throughout the years. It's nice and and shallow and it's just cozy but when it comes high water it's a germany is europe's most populous country. It's about the size of new mexico but it has more than eighty million people in that area so its population is fairly dense and there are so many towns like the one i visited yesterday that are built along waterways that are highly engineered and urban management to prevent these extreme weather events from causing so much damage is something that german officials will likely start analyzing more closely in the aftermath of this tragedy.

Latino Rebels Radio
Central America's Two Tragic Hurricanes
"Okay so i really wanted to talk about what's been going on in central america because when you follow the news of what's recently happened with two hurricanes that have hit the region. You don't really get a lot of information. And i mean like in terms of like the national conversation and i just felt you know talking to the team. Latino rebels because we have published some pieces and just falling. What's going on on twitter. You know hurricane iota and then hurricane at a displaced so many. There's so much happening that. I don't think a lot of people are seeing so just to give you a couple of both. Those hurricanes have affected more than five million people with the new york times reported earlier this month and at least one point five million of them are children so now we have this new class of refugees climate refugees and i don't really think that it's in the american consciousness because obviously there's a lot of focus on corona virus and everything that's going on and my first because we're gonna have two guests but my first guest is from the bronx we have fennell. Hey tsia welcome to latino roles radio you want to introduce yourself and to say what you do and why. This story matters to you so much absolutely. Yeah thank you so much for having me. Julio so you know. I i'm from the bronx ceriga. We have a huge latino population here. So i'm really excited to chat about what's going on in you know hunduras end central america. I am the founder of the bronx reading in the bronx book festival as well as honduran writers and i'm also a publicist in the book publishing industry also writer so i wear many hats so tell me what got you involved in what you've seen especially with the community which is a very. It's a very rich community in the bronx. And what got you involved in paying attention to this. What's going on in central america because me is a puerto rican you know. I feel like we have like the hurricane stamp ever since maria and right and it felt like everyone was talking about puerto rico and then almost kind of like why is nobody talking about central america in honduras and guatemalan and salvadoran. That just happened about a month ago. So what exactly are you doing specifically and share some of that. Because i think it's important absolutely so you know there. There's a lot of stuff happening here in the us right like we were right up against the election when all of this stuff was breaking about the category four storms in the hurricane and everything and so i stand that a lot of folks is attention was really pull towards that. I don't wanna like discount that because that was super important for us but at the same time to your point when all of these other countries were being hit with hurricanes. I feel like so. Many people rallied together. Talk about the puerto rican community like you know fantastic community right there in how everyone came together and obviously non latinos also wanted to like contribute and donate and so i'm sitting here grappling with everything happening with the election and then of course more terrible news coming. You know about honduras in central america with these hurricanes and i was just so upset in so i shut down and became silent and just sort of like what's watching. The media was watching what was happening on social media in house. Like no one is talking about this though. I got really upset right. And i have many Influencers in entrepreneurship. That i know and so i reached out to them and i was just like hey like. Have you seen anything like what is happening. Do you know of any organizations that are doing fundraising are we doing fundraising like what should we be doing. And of course we're starting the text chain in an email chain and we're all working together being like. Yeah what is happening and what we saw right away was a lot of go fund. Me pages went up just by individuals. It wasn't really by any credited organizations. And i don't know how much people know about hundred dollars in the government there but it's not the greatest and so of course you know we're like we want to give but it needs to be vetted right all of these political things that are happening in honduras in back home and we're like well we wanna make sure that the money gets the people that need it and so. In addition to just durance the indigenous population there is treated terribly in particularly gotti phone. People are treated terribly. Folks are the victims of gentrification anti blackness races exactly exactly and so this group of folks so we pulled together and we decided to found. Give back god you for now. Which was spearheaded by stadia alvarez. She's the founder of the phone market in partnership with founders of other brands. Like myself with the. Bronx is reading in the honduran from for writers genome. Martinez of isla dana. Yeah she's amazing. She's also from the wrongs bird sanchez of you know carson qatar nina martinez of god fauna entrepreneurs and talent. I mean there are just so many of us that pulled together and we were like we want to raise money and make sure that it gets into the hands of not just black endurance but specifically the Population in honduras. Talk to me about like what is it that people need. What are you doing to help them. Absolutely right now you know. The global pandemic still happening so they're in need of mask if folks want to donate they can get in touch with us. We're looking for mass Food money clothing medicine hygiene baby items and we're partnering with a hospital in honduras

"Guys that's Martin from shape. We're here right now in San Francisco Studio and unconnected to aid today on with the founder of fights cab Saha. Could you why don't you deduce yourself? It'll. Yeah. Awesome. First of all, thanks a lot for receiving me on the PODCAST. Martin. So my name is Lil- I'm the CO founder, CEO Camp and weekly started Fi Kim about a year and a half ago. So. If I is an interactive corn boxing gym, it comes with everything you need to start boxing and actually follow videos that are built by the best trainers of all the west coast they all fighters they all have obviously a tremendous fight expands but they're also great fitness instructor general for the listener on on our show that has never seen. It's what should be should be mentioned punching back and a pair of gloves. So what be? Yes. So it comes with a free standing bag. The best standing back on the market with a pair of didn't win leather gloves made an approved by fighters with a workout Matt, a pair of with be called quick grabs and the special sauce is who? Motion trackers that you put into quick wraps Ma and detract your hands a thousand times per second trek speed and my my punches. How many punches I'm doing per minute of what should I expect? Yes they tracked the type of country throw the measured the speed of the bunches basically build your output profile from one round to the other. What about impact? Not The impact is really the velocity. Okay. The of your hand and which actually throwing and how does like the coaching look like you were mentioning that you have coaches of all over the place and should I imagine like watching them like on my TV or iphone ourselves for me? Yes. So it comes with an APP you can the. Myriad on a large screen TV or you can watch the workouts on an IPAD whatever you prefer, and then from there, it's Kinda like all you can eat buffet. Really. So if you're advanced, you can jump straight into the advanced workouts right away we go and deep into the complex combinations. We'd practice footwork and the workouts very intense. Otherwise, it can literally start at the very first time. You've you're you're throwing your first punch. So we have what we call the prospect where it takes you from zero boxing experience teaches you to six inches and then at the end of the prospect path which. is about a four weeks program you actually know how to six months probably you know how to stand you know the basics Balkan it's mostly regular boxing the offer classes for a time boxing mma Nelson actually were focusing on boxing at the moment but we're having a lot of internal conversations around providing kickboxing as well as a kickboxing in multi, really as a as a an expansion and so so who's like you you're right now is it really like what you just mentioned on the beginners or is it like somebody that's been into boxing all their life or hundred, seventy, four for you Guys. Yeah, it's really seventy five percent beginners, but it's actually very interesting to see like a lot of them are now not beginners anymore So you know we kind of took a bunch of them. You know through the program you get to see videos online and on the social media and they're getting very proper form on have the basics of boxing. Of course, they don't have the in ring experience right visit steely it's a home virtual experience. Yeah. You can't really compete against somebody else right right. So Yeah, you actually can compete but on up put and precision you can't compete on. Actual defense offense. Of course, you're not going to get him. You know and does like a class look like, is it one on one coaching tailored to me or is it like a big class like pedal tone style or yet is really a group class? So it's you'll have usually the video stream will be divided into not that it's divided on the screen per se but vary between having the camera centered on the coach, and then you're getting bureau that is very dynamic. The camera moves around in the class and focuses on the participants taking the class live at our studio in Newport beach. For for me, you know like me having like an iphone like my supposed to put up my iphone like somewhere like on a on a counter, and then look at it while I'm like punching out on my back or how should I mention it? Yeah. That's a very good question like there's not a lot of people use it only with the with the iphone unless they're traveling aren't as they're actually using it in a gym gym or their apartment Jim the vending most people digging each day my cable upload, the Stream directly on on a big screen. TV. Your accent. Yeah. Oh we have a portion of our users. We actually are doing it on the night pat about Apple TV, that works as well Yeah. You can mirror exactly. You can use apple TV to mirror the the stream directly on a big screen TV as well. That's definitely the best experience you're getting very loud sounds and music. You hear the voice really really properly, the nose of the bag doesn't supplant the voice of the trainer lifts. Your stats are displayed very big for you. So like you're really into it, you feel like you're you're being tracked in. Really part of a group experience and it's both IOS and android os mostly s right now. Saying. It's only on ISLA, its and so why are people doing it Do they just WanNa, get a workout and they are not happy with you know like an experience like Peleton or maybe the half a pedal tone and want to supplement it with something else or do they actually want to get into boxing learn those skills forward let's say self defense. Yeah it's interesting. So. Like calm, we have two types of customers. The first type of customers really just will always intrigued boxing They want to do it because it's a work of that Jesse get something out of it even though you would stop working out after a year like you would still acquire the skills and those are self defense skills. You know a lot of people are mystified by you know. How to actually throw a punch and Hudson do properly. So that was one of our customers the other portion of because there is actually coming from the idea that boxing is the best workout to get in shape and the discovered the fundamentals and techniques through fight Cam. So the first reason they joined is for fitness purposes really assuming that boxing is the best workout out there the. Other portion come straight because they want boxing, but they can't attend to have a busy lifestyle. Their young parents hitting the gym is increasingly harder would a busy schedule? so that's the other proposition that they really resonate with and

Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery
Evolving Care and Closing the Access Gap to Addiction Treatment
"I'm your host William Moyers today I'm proud to introduce our guest president and CEO mark. MIC welcome mark thank you. You well I'm glad to be glad you're here too hard to believe. You've been the presidency now for twelve years. It's amazing time flies when you're having a good time. And of course we look back on retrospective, but we want to look forward here in the future of of addiction treatment and here we are at the Betty Ford Center in the winter of two, thousand and twenty. And this podcast, hopefully we'll have a nice long shelf life, so we'll have to look out even further than just the next couple of weeks. But what do you see in the years ahead? When when it relates to what we at Hazelton? Betty, Ford, we'll be delivering in terms of treatment. Well it. It's a great question There will be I. think tremendous changes coming in the field. In the clinical model in the way we deliver care and I think we're GONNA. See A lot of change has to do with virtual care and telehealth now virtual care are telehealth spin around for many many years, and it's been delivered in a lot of different settings. What hasn't happened, though is the treatment world the treatment of substance use disorders hasn't. Hasn't really grabbed onto. It the way it's going to happen. In the future the the population that's coming up the young, the young men and women who will be moving into work will be suffering from substance use disorders in the future have a very different way of approaching the world than when I do. They use their phones they. They user devices. They are comfortable on them, and so how we meet them meter patients where they're at in the future part of that has to be that we are very good at and understand what parts of the care that we deliver can be delivered virtually what parts of the care that we deliver can be delivered over a telephone How can our? Our patients access content access lectures on demand. That's going to be really critically important going forward so that so that's one thing that's going to happen the second thing that's going to happen. Is that I really do believe we're in a stage now where we're gonNA, have a real shaking out of the field I think that because of the. Requirements to invest in Electronics Isla chronic health record to invest in virtual care to upgrade your facilities to participate in health insurance. A lot of the treatments centers out. There won't be able to do that. They don't have the capital to do it. They don't have the the expertise to be able to move into the insurance world and so I. Think we're going to see A. A lot of centers that are going to close or merge with that'll do for us is GonNa to put even a heavier demand for our services. We are going to see as we're seeing today. a continued escalation of people coming to us for Karen, service, so this organization going to need to invest in of all things, bricks and mortar. There's no question about it. and And we've got a plan here. For the Betty Ford Center we've got plants throughout the Organization for the next five years, but looking well into the future people attending treatment in person is not going away. It's the preferred modality you know. Addiction is a disease of isolation, so people need whenever possible the Common Person and so there'll be a high demand on our on our sites to be able to provide more and more care, no question about it. One of the things that's happened in the evolution of the way we deliver cares. There has been a surge under your leadership in outpatient. Can you talk more about the role? That outpatient will play in the future? Sure our our chief medical officer Dr Marvin. Sepla told me when I first. First started here that ninety percent of the people who get care for a substance use disorder do it on an outpatient basis. And at that time we really had no outpatient services. So I'm pleased to say. Today's sitting here this morning. About of four patients three of them are getting services on an outpatient basis in the organization in one out of four are getting on A. A residential basis, and that's the way that it should be so outpatient is critically important for access for people to be able to Get Care in their neighborhoods where they live for an affordable price, and that's what outpatient patient allows us to do.

Now just to put that in context unemployment in two thousand eight nine increase by twenty two million during the global financial crisis so we are looking really at a crisis that is potentially greater than global financial crisis in two thousand and eight nine. Yeah and you also say the the International Labor Organization that it's going to cost globally three trillion dollars or thereabouts. Maybe three and a half trillion. But I think an interesting question is you did bring up the two thousand and eight financial crisis. How many jobs were regained in the economy after that? How long did it take for the recovery? I suppose so one of the key lessons of the global financial crisis and also early crises. That that type of situation in that recession that hit the world takes a long time not only for the economy to recover but in particular the labor market and we saw that it took a number of years for unemployment levels to return to pre-crisis levels in some cases sure and before we get into the policy recommendations from the low to help cushion the blow. Maybe you could tell me how which sectors really are going to suffer. I mean you mentioned in the report that self employees particularly in developing countries going to suffer. Because there's a lot of restrictions of movement on people for example and the move to goods as you've already said so. How are they going to cope in the meantime? That's right so we see a number of under abilities in terms of sectors. Of course they're not only issues in the manufacturing sector which we saw early on when the crisis started in China. But what we see. Now it's strong impact on the service sector so given the constraints to the movement of people and how we're working the border closures. Quarantine majors we all of course necessary to contain the spread of the pan-demic but these are putting major breaks on the way we consume. That's affecting the service sector so retail of course tourism is suffering very shop and severe shock as we speak a group that is particularly vulnerable in. This situation. Are the self-employed because the self-employed need their own safety. Net most countries are relying on their own savings as a safety net and then in in particularly in developing countries. Most of the self-employed don't have that luxury and they don't have access to social protection so they are very vulnerable to losing their income and their livelihood for a period of months which will have a very significant impact on them and their families and really poses a risk of a deterioration in working poverty. As we've pointed out as well so are we going to help them? What can we expect the International Labor Organization to do? And how is it going to do it? We need to see decisive response now. Needs to be coordinated. This is a very important message that has brought out that we saw in two thousand eight. Nine coordinator response is going to be more effective. But we've also highlighted three areas that deserve policy tension and that's protecting workers in the workplace particularly from the direct effects of the pandemic secondly stimulating economy to stop it from collapsing and thirdly supporting employment and incomes in different ways so I think when we look at stimulus that is really being announced by many countries is absolutely critical to ensure that the economy doesn't further collapse and bottom out so we see this informs of fiscal policy accommodative monetary policy. But then really what we need to see and number of countries is stepped up in this area but needs to be done consistently across all countries is special support not only to large enterprises which are important but also smaller enterprises and self employed. So this can come in different forms. It can come in. Forms of guarantee subsidized loans grants. We've seen in a number of countries already. Texas relief relief on other types of costs that the businesses facing because really the east to ensure that those businesses remain in operation. And they're ready to take things forward once a recovery gets underway simply for women and other all workers. We're proposing measures to as much as possible for employment to be retained so these also involves subsidies and types of relief for employers to keep workers on board in many European countries have different types of schemes such as the courts I bite in Germany etc. Other countries need to experiment with what type of support that can give businesses to keep workers in place and this is really critical because of you know we're talking about the service sector. Some of these games may not be as extensive as it is in manufacturing and then because there are many workers who are not covered by regular employment relationships we have casual workers. We have other unprotected workers. It's really also critical to see what other support can come in the form of social protection for women but also in household in general and it's also critical to reduce the burden on women. Because in this situation the extra burden is there in any case is being exacerbated during these time so you know support on paid care leave sick leave that is needed and we see of course in advanced economies but these extra measures are needed. All economies to ensure that workers self-employed women etc. Have that type of support during this

Challenges of Managing ML Models: Interview with Luke Marsden, Dotscience
"Hello and welcome to the AI. Today podcast I'm your host Kathleen. I'm your host Ronald Schmeltzer our guest today as Luke. Marsden who is the founder and CEO with Dot Science? I look thank you so much for joining us today on a today. Thank you for having me on Muslim. Lou can thanks for joining us. We'd like to start by having you introduce yourself to our listeners. Until them a little bit about your background and the exciting things that are going on at dot science. So I run Benham's Luke. I've been working on her a couple of years. Now my background prior to that was I was heavily involved in the DACA ecosystem so that was Containers and works closely with my previous Australia Q. With making it possible for days bases in containers and snatch them and things like that and it turns out that that technology is applicable of science machine learning unexplained Eckstein. How a bit likes wrong. Yeah I will start. Works in the Kuban teasing The project that came primary out Google kind of emergency to some of the large scale computing Google making it easier to run very large. Wet climates reliably across las. Islas in that kind of thing and yeah sorry background and very much on the devops in infrastructure. Sign of things and that's kind of why we've come to the welded machine learning with much devops perspective and we're looking at ways that you can bring some of the best practices that a pretty normal and common for software developers devops engineers and bring some of those best practices throughout the day signs machine money. Frankly it's it's pretty lacking in many cases at the moment sire I can dive into more of that as you wish. But in terms of the final things dangling adult science well we have a product that launched in the summer of last year an end to end date science machine. Learning Platform will science. It started out from as I mentioned the welded devops data version and so when the company starts just over two years ago. Now we started with project Cole. Dahmash end the idea with don't match was bring data version ing to the well the devils and the last six months into that project we realized okay. We could build a business around Divisions devils but actually we've discovered that as a much much bigger problem around data in the well date science machine lending and none of us had been in that world before site we had a very rapid slew of learning curve for us on our team regained the world of Science Machine Learning. Bobi That's the reproducibility crisis. In science that as challenges with data version ing and being able to even know which version of dice that was used to China Mobile. That might be running in production that might be making important decisions and from that we started the dot science projects and the dog. Science project really started out being focused around data version and provenance so the ability to go from model. That's running in production TRANSPAC Exactly the version of the data set. That was used to train it exactly. What about his that came from and we learned kind of in twenty nineteen really. The starting with that problem was actually starting with the problem. That was further down the road. Full might of the market that we did find some of Allie visionary customers who agreed with us about the important sedates questioning and provenance and they were kind of acid points with their own projects. They already to tackle as problems that we found the ninety-eight percent of the market that we were speaking to have more fundamental problems. And this is kind of interesting. Because it was a cable was solved. A problem that love the market doesn't have yet and so we extended the products to support the end to end machine lending life cycle and what we found was we had either never again was the most companies actually have a more fundamental problem. They have the problem of being able to deploy models into production. Asshole AM surprised us we. That's why we developed the products to deploy muddles very easily so we made it possible without Python Library for scientists to run a single camman which is gassed model and that will automatically builds Abdulkarim image for By ten supply will psychic model and Ben automatically allow the user just by clicking a button to deploy that mobile And also sets up monitoring and. I guess we'll talk about monitoring Lakes rob but yeah. That's kind of the exciting things that are going on is that we've navigated to the point where we have the end to end platform that we're seeing real customer traction and as Kaunda. That's exciting because we've achieved Fans and solving real problems for us which is nice. Yeah Nice robust answer because it covers a lot of ground which is great. You know a lot of our listeners. Who who may not really be familiar with them. L. Ops. I know that we are at cognreznick. Actually just wrapped up some research on the subject and it's really interesting. The timing of bringing this sort of solution to market where were now starting to see a maturing in the understanding of how to use and consume but more were also just not moving from companies who are building their own models and experimenting to organizations who are starting to leverage or models built by other parts of their organization or even by other organizations. This change is a lot of the emphasis of the need for management but for many of our listeners. Who may not know have never heard the term Emma Lops. Maybe they're kind of familiar with devops. And maybe maybe for our listeners. You can define find at least from your perspective. What is this Amel ops thing? What is the OPS part in? How does that connect to? Maybe some of the concept deb. Ops that they may already be familiar with. Yeah absolutely so. It's a great question. What is Emma Lopes and for companies like we were doing something that didn't have a name yet and the word analogs finally really came into even some popular tons last year. And so it is. It's very neat. Tom And say I certainly wouldn't expect everyone listening to have heard of it before. Alex is the intersection of three disciplines. It's the intersection of Software Engineering Machine. Learning and devops and I mean just to provide a snapshot of of whether disciplines individually have. Come to suffer. Engineering has undergone a bit of a revolution in the last two decades. Now and suffer. Engineering has gone from something which was done slowly and manually by suffragettes. E-mailing bashes patch files around each other as a way of collaborating so distributed version control with tools. Like get hub making it much easier to Radley. It's right on a software project and side that be my sort of summary of suffer. Engineering's come to the state of the autism around distribution control in an acing Chris. Collaboration and then devops has grown a revolution in the last ten years going from a place where when a company the Software Company is delivering software to perform devops. That would be silenced. That would be teams of suffer. Engineers working on the software and then they'll be teams of operators ninety professionals who would be running the software and there was very much a sense that you sort of some racially is build a software type. They write some software and then they try it over. The Wall to be icy ops people and the problem with that is it really slowed down the delivery of software and the man that S- that were big organizational challenges around of big slow release cycles and it would take months for software to ship and DEVOPS has done is it said No. You shouldn't have teams. You shouldn't have a set team from your office team. You should have a dental team. Which means that you combine your developing your operations and sometimes multi-functional team a team that contains able with. Sometimes it's one person is doing both the suffering the operations and actually playing it and increasingly. That's the way the simone suppress bells and said devops early. Visit a revolution in terms of being able to suffer more quickly and combining bats organizational change of Suffer developers and operations people in the same team and often in the same role. Software has gone from taking months to ship two minutes and in some cases seconds and so that's also being enabled by tools like continuous integration. Continuous

But Why: A Podcast for Curious Kids
Coronavirus For Kids, And The Science Of Soap
"You may have been hearing lately about something called Corona virus. Or maybe you've been hearing about Kovic. Nineteen many of you have been affected more than just by hearing about this new illness. In some regions and countries. Lots of things have changed. Big events like football or soccer matches concerts and community events have been postponed mosque. Church and synagogue services have been cancelled and schools and places where adults work have been closed. It can be confusing or worrying when normal life changes. If you are feeling a little concerned you should ask the adults in your life to help explain things but you should also that things are probably feeling confusing. And maybe a little overwhelming to your adults to most of us haven't been through something quite like this before and going to take all of us being calm and following the best advice of health professionals and our local leaders to get through this together today. We're going to answer questions. You've been sending us about corona virus in an effort to make sure you are informed and prepared not scared. We're putting this episode out. On Friday March Thirteenth Twenty twenty. The global situation is changing very quickly. But the information. We're going to give you today pretty relevant. Whether you're listening the day we put this out or maybe a week or two later or perhaps even later and as things continue to change you can continue to send us questions. You think we should answer. Let's start with corona virus. What it is and what Kovic nineteen means we asked Critique polly to help answer your questions about this virus critique it is an infectious disease doctor. Infectious diseases are illnesses. That are caused by a microorganism. Getting into your body micro means small so something really small. You can't see it. Some infectious diseases are passed from one. Human to another by insects. Like mosquito others are passed from person to person in other ways like by one person. Coughing or sneezing and another person breathing in those cough droplets. In the Air Dr Critic Acapella works on Infectious Diseases and she's actually one of the leaders of the Infectious Disease Society of America so she thinks about contagious illnesses a lot and she's been helping a lot of politicians health officials and others think about this new illness. That people are so worried about so she was really glad to get a chance to talk directly to you to kids about the questions. You have islanders. Henry I'm eight years old. I live in Oxford. Ohio and my question is why did the current ivars happen? Hi My name is Isla. I live in spokane Washington. I'm eleven years old in my question is what do scientists know about the corona virus? Hi I'm Evelyn. I'm seven years. Old From Kirkland Washington. And I'd like to ask what is the corona virus. What exactly is a corona virus? We keep hearing this word corona virus. What is that? Karma bowl is on part about large family of germs called viruses chronic viruses infect animals and some infect people so the one that is causing the big outbreak right now is one that index people and sometimes when this happens it can cause infections of our lungs also cause fevers coughing and shortness of breath. Hi My name is Nathan. I am five years old. I live in Washington and lie. Question is why of a different take of other current viruses. That kids might be familiar with if if we've gotten a cold. Is that a corona virus. Yes quarterback most commonly called what we think of as causing the common cold so people have had probably a corona virus already in their lives. If they've had the sniffles coffin. It's not allergies. If they've had a cold viral illness they may already have had a corona virus. So why are we concerned about Cova? Nineteen the disease that's caused by this new corona virus. Hello my name is Waitin' Four and a half years old eleven in Pennsylvania. My question is was the coon of why was bad. Hi My name is advocates are the venture cargo. I am five years old Miami Kelly. I'm an elephant Chicago. How did the corona virus become so powerful so toby nineteen is what we call a novel coronavirus and what the word novel means is that it's new and that people have not seen it before and that's why it's called? Colgate nineteen the coast and for Corona. The D. I. Vin is Virus Disease In nineteen. Because it first appeared in people in two thousand nineteen and because it's new and people haven't seen it before it's making people very sick. Is that because because people haven't seen it before none of us have developed any immunity to it. So we're more likely to get it if we come in contact with it because our body has no built up way to try to prevent us from getting it. Because everybody's never seen it before. Yes that's one reason so the bodies have never seen it before We don't have any way for our body to recognize and develop a immune response to it so none we can get very sick and that is one of the reasons we are so concerned about it because we have seen that some people Who can get this disease? Get very sick. You said that that lack of any immune response is one reason. Are there other reasons why humans are likely to get this one or why there's concern about humans getting it? Well one of the reasons we get concerned about humans getting it's not. We've seen that people who are older when they got it tend to get more sick and that is one of the reasons we are so worried about it. My name is Tara and I'm turning eleven and I live in New York City and my question is how do viruses mutate? Hi My name is Millie and eleven New Jersey and I was six years old and my question is. How did the current virus start? Where did this disease come from? We aren't exactly sure where the disease has come from. Belli's one thing. We are still working to understand but we do know that there are lots of viruses in the world and based on our best guess right now where other chronic illnesses come from we right now think that it may have come from bats and there may have been some sort of intermediate host and from there came to humans however that has not been confirmed yet and they are still working to identify where it came from so it may have come from an animal animal's could have had this before humans ever got it and somehow transferred from animals into the first humans who got it absolutely correct. How does this virus spread in people? Virus spreads mainly from people either sneezing or coughing by their droplets. So that is why it is important if you sneeze or cau- to cover your mouth so you can't spread it to other people if you cover your mouth with your hand while you cough and then you put your hand down on your desk or your table or hold hands with your friend. Can you transmit the virus that way? Well sort of so if your hand has a virus on it and then you touch your hand and then your hand to get scars on it and your friend than touches the mouth or the nose order is than they can give themselves the virus if they don't wash clean their hands before they touch their mouth their nose or there is so it's very important to wash your hands before touching your face and critique. Oh we mentioned a minute ago. That people who've had a cold have had a corona virus. What are the symptoms of this particular corona virus covert nineteen so the most common symptoms of this corona virus? Or going to be things that make you not feel very good so a fever a cough and feeling tired and having maybe some muscle aches. Those are the most common initial symptoms. You're going to have when you have this
