A highlight from 1255. CBDC's vs Stablecoins U.S. Hearing | FULL BREAKDOWN
"All right, so today we're going to dive into CBDCs, stablecoins, and a hearing. All of this happening around what this might look like, both in the government -issued CBDC or possibly even the private sector. I'm going to break it all down for you. We've got a ton of clips. You guys don't want to miss it. My name is Paul Baron. Welcome back in a Tech Path. All right. We're going to get started here. This is a pretty big hearing. It goes through a lot around the development of CBDCs and whether or not central bank digital currency in case you guys are brand new to our channel and don't understand what that is. You're going to learn a lot here about what's happening with electronic money for you and possibly a controlled state money at some point. This is coming over from the Financial Services Committee. This is a hearing entitled Digital Dollar Dilemma, the Implications of a Central Bank Digital Currency and Private Sector Alternatives. And that's really kind of the crux of the matter. We're going to go into it. There are several people that are in this hearing. We'll break down each one of them, give you guys a shortened version because this is multi -hours that we've boiled down into about 12 minutes of clips. You're going to love it. All right, so let's go to our first clip right here, kind of give an intro. Let's check this one out. We're here to better understand what central bank digital currencies are and the concept of digital money to compare CBDCs to privately issued payment stablecoins. So let me be unequivocally clear here for this audience. There is no support for a CBDC in Congress except from those on the fringes who think somehow a CBDC might be an amazing solution to many unstated global problems. Several members, Mr. Emmer, Mr. Mooney, Mr. Auchincloss, and I have introduced bills stating that the Federal Reserve does not have the authority to issue a U .S. CBDC. I particularly want to say thank you to Mr. Auchincloss, Mr. Torres, and Mr. Nickel for their work on our bill and demonstrating that this isn't a controversial or partisan point of view. All right, so you may want to look at some of the bills that they've introduced. I'll just cut back to this page here on McHenry's website here. So they have the House Bill 3402, which is the power of the Mint Act, the Digital Dollar Prevention Act, and also the CBDC Anti -Surveillance State Act. That's what he is mentioning there. So I want to go to this next clip that goes into a little bit deeper around how this hearing is going to play out. Listen in. There are many myths surrounding CBDCs, and I will use my time to discuss what I consider the three most important. First, issuing a CBDC would not help preserve the status of the United States dollar. It would likely damage it. The dollar's renowned status is owed to the strength of the American economy and its legal protections for private citizens relative to many other countries. Anyone who wants to use the dollar would lose a layer of protection from that type of government abuse. The second myth is that a CBDC would expand financial inclusion by providing a new source of financial services for America's unbanked and underbanked populations. That unbanked and underbanked Americans primarily are in that situation because either they don't have enough money to have an account or they don't want to give their personal information to a bank or the government. While some proponents argue that a CBDC lowers the cost of providing financial services, that's true only if the government subsidizes those costs or chooses to waive the same level of regulatory scrutiny it requires of private firms. It's also the one that causes those unbanked Americans to say they don't trust banks. All right. So as you can kind of see, he's setting up the committee or the hearing, I should say, to really kind of frame it because there is a good guy and a bad guy in this. I think you'll start to picture it out. But Norbert actually coming in from the Cato Institute does do a good job of kind of setting the stage. Let's go to our next clip. This is going to be our clip three. And in this clip, it's going to get into where the abuse could come from. Listen in. There is no discernible reason for the United States to move toward a CBDC right now. So if the liabilities with CBDC increase, so too must the Fed's assets. The Fed could buy more Treasury securities to match CBDC, but that could possibly invite pressure on the Fed to issue more CBDCs to, in turn, absorb more government debt. And overall, that dynamic could further erode the limited fiscal discipline that we have remaining. All right. So a lot's already on the Fed's plate. They already have to deal with inflation they're dealing with. Now they probably have to go into where they're realizing the management of a central bank digital currency. Again, these are the challenges, I think, that would occur and would create that abuse that we see in government agencies so often. I think as you look at not only the scenario, because in this particular hearing, there's quite a few people against the CBDCs, but there still are people that are vying for CBDCs and how that plays out. Let's get into the banking industry, and I want to go to this next clip, our clip four, that talks about the banking industry and how they'd be affected. Listen in. We believe that at this point, there is little evidence that a CBDC would bring measurable benefits to the U .S. economy or consumers. A so -called flight to quality is something that we fear would be almost inevitable. In times particularly of financial stress or instability, a CBDC would be viewed likely as the ultimate safe asset, and depositors would likely be incentivized to pull the deposits out of the banking system and put them into CBDCs as a safe asset, which would reduce the availability of deposits available to lend out and, moreover, increase the cost of credit. Banks have led numerous efforts to improve the speed and security of payments. Zelle is another example of bank -led innovation. A bank -owned peer -to -peer payment service through which transferred funds are available almost immediately. All right. So a couple of things there, you know, she did hit, remember, she's representing the banking industry. So if CBDCs were to come to light, the banking industry would cause, I think it would be somewhat of a collapse overall. And she is correct, is that the reduction of deposits in any kind of pressured economy would fly to, you know, a capital that feels more secure, feels more secure. And this would essentially crater the economy through the lack of business credit, the lack of liquidity in the markets, and essentially a disruption completely of the banking system. Now, that may be the evil plan. We don't know. But I think the banks are going to fight this pretty, pretty hard. She mentioned Zelle, which is absolutely a no -go. I mean, Zelle is absolutely trash. It is not a platform. I think that's where blockchain starts to play into an opportunity for these digital payment systems to be implemented, providing that we can get some clarity on the legislative landscape. Let's go over to our next clip, which is our clip five. This is talking about eCash, which is their idea of a solution. Listen in. I worry about some of the recent false narratives and fear mongering, much of which has been fueled by the crypto industry itself. That fear mongering around a CBDC being weaponized as a tool for government surveillance or control. This is why I've introduced the eCash Act. This bill directs the Treasury to design and pilot a digital version of cash and would complement the Fed -issued CBDC. It would allow individuals to make instant peer -to -peer payments with no consumer data or transaction tracking and without the use of a bank account. Today, I support the call for a digital dollar system, including CBDC, Fed accounts and eCash. When discussing privacy, the digital dollar system and CBDC should be compared to the existing systems that we are already using. We envision hardware devices, so those can be cards similar in size to an existing debit or credit card, or they can be secured SIM cards or something like it on a phone that would enable hardware -based transactions and for people to make payments as they do today with paper cash for everyday things without fear of government or corporate surveillance, which occurs in tandem when we use digital payments today. All right, so this is the official site of the eCash Act, and it gets into some of the detail that they're talking about, but there's a lot of problems with this. One item, replicate the anonymity and privacy -respecting features of physical cash, okay. To the greatest extent reasonably practically possible. So this is telling me maybe they don't have the full case of anonymity and privacy worked out just yet. Secured hardware issued and or authorized by the government, that's another issue that would be a problem.
The Eric Metaxas Show
Fresh update on "one issues" discussed on The Eric Metaxas Show
"Welcome back. Talking to Kevin McCullough, that Kevin show. Kevin, please continue. You were making an important point. Several. It's just if if Biden's if Biden was not there, none of this would have happened. We would have had a completely different outcome on the southern border. And in only three and a half years, there's been enough damage from that one policy alone. We're not even talking about his transgender agenda for schools or his ruining of the economy or what he's done to our foreign policy with our enemies and allies across the global security front. We're just talking about just we're just talking about just our back door, just the back porch on the house. That's all we're talking about right now. And in that one issue, in that one simple policy scenario, he has ruined our country and potentially taken us down a path that we may never even be able to recover from. You understand, Eric, if we don't win the next election and the Democrats take the House and I'm not saying that any of this is going to happen, I'm just saying if you if you look at the ramifications of what they've done in three and a half years, imagine what they're going to do if they take control of both houses again. There's already a discussion about trying to disband or pack or change the Supreme Court in some way. All checks and balances are off. They don't want checks and balances. There this is a takeover of not just someone who disagrees with us on economic policy. This is the takeover by people who hold an agenda that is distinctively anti-God. And in that reflects their hostility toward their fellow man. And in that they seek to empower and enrich themselves. And the rest of us are all here to be subservient to that agenda. This is not your mom and dad's disagreement between the Democrat and the Republican Party. This is survival of some level, acknowledge that there is a God versus a Marxist state that says that God is dead, does not exist, and we should not pay any pay him any attention. The stakes don't get bigger. And if we're not individually going to our houses of worship, talking to our pastors, talking to our neighbors, telling the people that we go to the gym with, do you understand what's going on in our country? If we don't show the passion for it, if we don't have the endless energy to fight the battle, there will be no one after us to do it. So it's a call to arms. We have to be ready and we have to go. And this is why I say to people wherever I go, if you're going to a church that is not dealing with this, get out of that church. God will judge you for your complicity, silence in the face of evil. In my book, Letter to the American Church, I talk about the parallels. The German churches didn't know, didn't want to know that they were complicit with evil. They wanted to have church. They wanted things to be nice. They wanted things to go back the way they were. So they ignored the satanic evil slowly being unleashed until it was too late. That happened. It is happening in America now. If you're going to one of those churches, folks, I just want to warn you, the evil is real. It's coming for all of us. You need to understand it. You need to be in a church that understands it.

A highlight from Vitalik Was Hacked! (Beware Of The FOMO!)
"Snapped in, hit that button, they signed in, and they connected their wallet, and next thing you know, they got drained from this Vitalik hack. Some people weren't patient, and they saw Vitalik tweet out a link, and they impatiently just snapped in, hit that button, they signed in, they connected their wallet, the next thing you know, they got drained from this Vitalik hack, everybody. But, it wasn't his wallet that got hacked. It wasn't his bank account that got hacked. But his ex -account did get hacked, everybody. Ethereum co -creator Vitalik Buterin's ex -account reportedly breached. Hacker makes away with $690k. Do they stop there on purpose? Almost $700k, folks. You can see he was leading to a left of $690k. As per Decrypt, the breach happened on Saturday. A post surfaced on his feed promoting NFTs from a software provider, ConsenSys, which turned out to be a scam link displayed to his almost 5 million followers and asked victims to connect their wallets to mint the NFT. Instead, the hacker gained access to the funds. I believe a couple punks got stolen, so most of what got stolen was NFTs, folks. So just got to be careful out there. Maybe people don't have a whole bunch of ETH on a wallet, but they have some NFTs, and so they're out there. They're just clicking things. They're linking things, and it didn't end up going well for those people. So you got to be careful clicking links out there, folks. I think it was a little bit of a FOMO. If I'm guessing what, if you see an hour -long post or, you know, and maybe, but when you see it's, you know, you refresh by following, and it's a 14 -second link, you might go ahead and click that because, oh, you know, only 5 ,000. Maybe they go get claimed. You go on Etherscan. You see 17 people did it in the last two seconds. You're just going to FOMO in. You got to be careful out there. It happens. It does happen. It happens. I don't think that includes the values of the stolen punks. I thought it did. I'm not sure. We'll look more into that as this story has time to digest everybody. Just here to talk about, okay, Tim. Tim and the investing bros are out there, 9 to 10 AM, everybody. You can check that out. All right. Ethereum creator Vitalik, co -authors paper detailing method for weeding out dishonest crypto users. Here you see an Ethereum coin floating in an aquarium for some reason. Him and four additional authors detail how privacy pools can be useful in weeding out unscrupulous crypto traders. Oh, that's a pool. That's not a pool I would want to go into. Give me a bunch of chlorine. Give me some salt. I don't want critters and plants growing in there. In a lengthy thread, one of the co -authors, Amin Soleimani of Privacy Pools, further explains how the protocol works and how it can help issues experienced by users of sanctioned Mixer tornado cache, which is deemed a national security threat in 2022 and banned in the US. With Privacy Pools, users can publish zero -knowledge proofs that their withdrawal originated from an association set that excludes known illicit deposits. In theory, this allows users to prove regulatory compliance and still maintain privacy while using public blockchains. Paper concludes the privacy regulation may be compatible despite generally being perceived as contradictory. I have one issue with this. I guess you could put it as some sort of thing where an association set that excludes. But what's stopping someone from getting four ETH that is from stolen funds from the Lazarus group and then dusting everybody and dusting 10 ,000 wallets with the stolen ETH? Would you then, you know, render those wallets obsolete? Or what if it scaled up? And what if a million people did it a million times a day, what would that look like? So I don't know what that's going to look like. So we have this awesomely photoshopped picture right there. I think that was taken January. Anyways, SEC files appeal against Ripple as legal battle intensifies, levels allegations against Ripple, accusing the company of stalling resolution to preserve unregulated sales. SEC is urging the court to speed up the proceedings. Gary is saying, you need to get a green light, let's go. SEC makes a compelling case for streamlining the proceedings, emphasizing the imperative and efficient resolution. Meanwhile, Ripple stands firmly in opposition, invoking questions of law and strategy, saying, hey, guys, we need time to plan for our appeal here, while the SEC is steadfast in its resolve to scrutinize both, I think it's supposed to be programmatic sales, not pragmatic. Pragmatic just means that makes sense to do it. XRP fanatics would say it's always pragmatic to buy XRP. I think it's supposed to be programmatic here. Programmatic sales and other XRP exchanges for goods and services. Ripple, on the other hand, plans to deny the regulators a request for repeal. Why does this matter? The SEC's decision to appeal the ruling is a development in the ongoing legal battle between the agency and Ripple. The case outcome could have a major impact on the cryptocurrency industry, as it could set a precedent for how the SEC regulates cryptocurrencies. Guys, we're going to see more and more of these, you're going to have the, let me use this word right here. Yeah, I didn't want to say it because you're going to have a, it's basically a pickleball game. It's going to go back, it's going to go forward, it's going to go back, it's going to go forward. I don't have a law degree, because I don't have a, I can't explain to a five -year -old what this means. The SEC has filed its reply memorandum in further support of its motion to certify interlocutory appeal. Of course. When you say it like that, it just means, oh, of course. Basically what it means is, hey, stop, no you stop, no we stop. And then as we get closer to the real news, we'll start letting you know. But this is going to be a mini -month process, I don't see anything happening really, really quickly with this. All right, let's talk about the XRP market cap though. Is it up? Is it down? It's down. It is down. It's down big. Down big, folks. Bigly. Billions. Just one, actually. XRP one erases billion from its market cap in one week. What is this? Is this a towel? Is this a blanket? Is this a car cover? I was thinking the same thing. What is it? I want that swath of cloth. I don't know where it goes, but I just want that swath. Give me that swath. All right, as long as I can stop a moth from my swath of cloth, or maybe it's a cheese cloth for a broth. I don't know what it's for, folks, but anyways, let's get right into the story here. As the sell -off, we're going to go right into this, get ready, Kelly, get ready. As the sell -off continues across the wider cryptocurrency sector, XRP is no exception, having lost over one billion from its market cap in a matter of mere days, despite efforts to increase liquidity by unlocking a billion XRP from the Ripple's escrow system. Yeah, because let's increase liquidity by dumping a billion. That'll work, right? Whoa. No, I think maybe people saw that as a sell the news event there. From Ripple's escrow system and later relocking 80 % into two escrows, guys, they dump, and then the escrow usually sucks up a portion. Most of it. But then when you're not looking, then when you're not looking, that escrow account will dump a little. It'll sprinkle a little here and there. You're like, wait a minute. This is really interesting. You know, I obviously looked really far into XRP's Soconomics when I did the XRP price prediction video, which was actually the best one of them all, and this whole bit about how they unlock a billion XRP every month, and then it's, you know, an X amount, whatever percent, normally it's more than 50%, normally 70, 80 % gets sucked back into a different escrow account, but there is no determining why whatever amount gets pulled back. If anyone knows the answer to that question, please, by all, please let me know. It's Optics. I've thought about it. I think it's an Optics thing. Okay. It sounds really good. Look, we have, I don't know, what is it, 46 billion left, something like that, maybe, yeah, probably around 46, 47 maybe, they have 47 billion left and they dump a billion a month. That sounds pretty bad, but then when you interject this, oh, but we have this entity that just vacuums up 75 % every time. It doesn't sound as bad, and also Ripple, they probably want to make some money selling some Ripple 49 months from now, 50 months from now, 60 months from now, 100 months from now, 200 months from now, and the way they do it is they just suck it into that escrow account. Right. But I'm just saying sometimes it's 70%, sometimes it's 80%, sometimes it's, there's no, I get what you're saying, but there's no rhyme or reason to how much they pull back, and that has always just confused me, especially, people want to project, what will the supply be by 25%, what will the supply be by 30%, and when you have really weird kind of random things like this, it kind of leaves a lot of us stretching our heads, like how are we supposed to figure this out, and the answer is you don't, because it's up to them. No, so you're wondering, like why do they leave 20 % instead of 80 % or 1%, I think they do a little bit of... They change it every, they do it once a month, and it's different every time, it's different every time. It's crazy. I think it's, they think what the markets can absorb. Right, that makes sense. Yeah. That's probably more of a gut feeling. Sure. It's just there's no rhyme or reason to the numbers. There's probably some math quant that they have in a dark closet, and they're like, all right, how many can we, all right, 248 million. And then they shut the door and they see him in 30 days. They throw some Vienna sausage cans at him, probably try to hit him in his head. All right. Refill his water. I like it. I think that's exactly what happened.

With me today is Ron Hammond, who's Director of Government Relations at the Blockchain Association. Ron, great to have you back on. Always a pleasure. Thanks for having me again. So Ron, Congress is back to work, if I'm not mistaken, this week. And I want to follow up on the two bills that were in the House that were marked up, the stablecoin bill, as well as the market structure. What can we expect? Could we expect some of these bills to go to the floor to get voted on? What's the latest? Definitely. So just to recall here, there were two big votes, as you alluded to, the stablecoin votes, as well as the market structure bill. Those were in the committees. That's kind of the first step in terms of getting a vote in the House floor. So these cleared the committees. We actually had six Democrats and all the Republicans vote for the market structure bill, which was a huge surprise. Again, that was a really tough bill. It was very dense. But at the end of the day, they got across the finish line and set it up for what hopefully is going to be a good bipartisan bill vote, hopefully sometime in the fall. And then for the stablecoin bill, that's where we saw a little bit of derailments. We saw the White House get involved literally hours before the vote happened. We thought that we would probably get a decent amount of bipartisan support, potentially even getting Maxine Waters, the chair of the Democrats Fine Service Committee. But unfortunately, the White House got involved. It was mostly around the issues of state versus federal regulators. And we have state regulators like NYDFS, the New York banking regulator, who say, look, we believe that we have the role to regulate stablecoins. We've been doing it for quite some time and we have a good regime. We believe that we have a role here. Whereas the folks at the Federal Reserve and Treasury and now the White House are saying, I think actually it should be done more at the federal level. And we've seen more Republicans line up as well as New York Democrats line up with the state pathway and the more broad consensus of the Democrat Party, more in line with the federal pathway and following the White House. And so now we're going to go here to September, October, November. It's a pretty busy time right now here on Capitol Hill. But the biggest thing right now is a shutdown. It looks like there's going to be potentially a shutdown happening at the end of the month. So everything else, including the crypto bills, FAA reauthorization and a whole slew of other issues out there, will get put on the back burner until we can actually fund the government. And it looks like this is going to be quite the dramatic push. And so we potentially could see votes on these bills in October, but maybe actually November as well. And the longer that it takes to get these bills voted on the House, it means it gets less time for the Senate to potentially take these up as well. And in order for that to happen, though, we need to have a strong bipartisan support for both bills. And I think that's going to be the main crux here is that if the Democrats in the House would get a decent amount support that bill, it gives more of a reason for the Senate Democrats who do control the Senate to say we would actually take a piece or look at that piece of legislation. But until then, they need a strong bipartisan support and a vote in the House. And again, I would probably look at October or November for those. Oh, boy. Yeah, this shutdown is going to throw a monkey wrench in the whole process. And to your point, everybody's going to be focused on that. That's the higher priority. OK, so October, November, we could expect something. Now, the stablecoin situation is pretty interesting because, like you said, the NYDFS, you know, they obviously ordered BUSD Paxos to shut down BUSD issuance, but they approved PayPal to go issue their stablecoin. So it seems like a power struggle here. And who do you think might win this battle? You know, Maxine Waters pushing for the Treasury and the Fed to do things on their end. But we know they're exactly. So there's a lot of players involved here. So we have the crypto industry lobbying mostly for the rules of like, look, we just need a framework. We don't really engage too much on the state versus federal pathway for us. A regulatory framework means the businesses know what they can and can't do. And there's a licensing regime in place. On the other end, though, we have the banks lobbying, for example, and they're lobbying for more of the fact that only banks should be the ones issuing stablecoins. It shouldn't be Circle. It shouldn't be Paxos. It should just be the banks. And then finally, the same front, we do have the federal regulators and a little turf war in terms of the state versus federal, who is the big dog here in terms of the regulators. Now, that battle happens all the time for a variety of financial bills, not crypto in particular. And so I've seen this play out several times. Usually the Fed wins in most of these fights. However, we're seeing a larger majority of members of Congress supporting that state pathway and again, including the Republicans being all in lockstep. There were no defections on their end. We saw defections more on the Democrats side. So the numbers do favor the Republicans and the Democrats who are supporting NYDFS and others. But at the same time, the White House is a very strong force. And that was enough to get several Democrats who were lined up potentially to vote for in support of the stablecoin bill to back down. And again, most notably Maxine Waters as well. So it remains to be seen. I call this, it's in the holding pattern right now because there is a bipartisan push to get this done. I mean, even Maxine Waters, even though she voted against it, she put out an article a couple of weeks ago saying, look, I think we need to get stablecoin regulation done, especially with the narrative more picking up now recently, a big tech in the finance. And that's more in regards to X or Elon trying to get some money transmitter licenses for Twitter, whatever you want to call it these days. And that also builds off the Libra Facebook narrative. And so I think what we're seeing now is that there's a lot of things in play right now. There was a report in 2021 from the Biden administration saying Congress has to act on stablecoin legislation. We cannot do this alone. We need to have a congressional authority. So there's impetus here. So we'll see how that happens again on that front. But I'm still shocked even to this day that we were able to get more folks to support the market structure bill, not the stablecoin bill, because that dynamic, it seemed like stablecoins was almost good to go. But of course, it's politics. Something always happens at the last moment. And in this case, the White House got involved. And I think that's also important to highlight, though, the White House would not have gotten involved in this stage, if they didn't think this bill was going to become law. Nine percent of bills don't become law. But in this case, they did weigh in. And I think that's because they thought that, look, this is the time to weigh in. So my hope is that we can still be optimistic in this being done in some shape or form. But someone's going to have to negotiate a little bit here. And right now, both camps are pretty firm in their positions. Hmm. Boy, I can't wait to see how that plays out. But it seems, you know, given that stablecoins very much will obviously deal with the currency and the Fed and Treasury control of currency, I can imagine that they want to make sure they have their stamp on it. So you have the market structure bill in the House, but there's also the Lummus Gillibrand bill in the Senate. Is that making any progress or could that even be an option? Or is it just on hold as well? I wouldn't say it's on hold. I think it's a really important marker in the Senate. I mean, look, it's very different from the market structure bill that's in the House for Patrick McHenry. There's no question about it. But at the same time, the Senate really hasn't had a regulatory framework bill besides Lummus Gillibrand. And if you recall last Congress, the FTX bill or the Digital Commodity Consumer Protection Act, DCPA, that was the other major regulatory framework bill. So there is impetus. There is bipartisan support in the Senate to get something done. But I think what's going to have to happen is the House needs to pass their bill, their market structure bill, and say, look, there is a clear bipartisan desire to move forward on crypto regulation and market structure regulation. Senate, here is a bill where you hope you take up either some elements, all the elements, or even just build off the work that we've done in the House.

A highlight from Read_762 - Bitcoin's Security Model Deep Dive
"When discussing consensus mechanisms for different cryptocurrencies, one issue that often causes arguments is a lack of understanding and definition of the security model that they provide for the historical data in the ledger. The best in Bitcoin made audible. I am Guy Swan and this is Bitcoin Audible. What is up guys, welcome back to Bitcoin Audible. I am Guy Swan, the guy who has read more about Bitcoin than anybody else you know. We've got another blast from the past today, but this is another great one from Jamison Lop that is basically forever applicable because it's a deep dive, it's a breakdown of the Bitcoin security model. I think it's interesting just to kind of think about it from the context of 2016 when this was written and then now how much different the hash and mining landscape is. But just to be able to kind of take this model and do the same sort of math and the same sort of, especially, it's funny too, how much, this was in 2016 so this was before the block size war. And there are two things in this that he basically lays out that kind of give you the full outcome of the block size war before the block size war happened. One reason why the block size war happened and then another reason as to why the full nodes, why the user activated soft fork won during the block size war. But obviously it's not really in that context, he just kind of lays out some important structural elements of the security and the power dynamics in Bitcoin. And it's like you take that to their logical conclusion and you have the outcome of the block size war which I thought was just kind of fascinating. You know, I've always contended that the big blockers, the reason that the hard fork side lost wasn't just because they had the wrong path thinking ahead, but because they didn't understand Bitcoin as it was today. And maybe if they did understand those critical elements, those kind of deeper elements of Bitcoin, they could have won the block size war in some form or fashion or at least they could have not lost so miserably. But you can also say they would have chosen a different path and they wouldn't have had the mindset that they did. But anyway, we'll get into that a little bit in the guys take. Let's go ahead and hit the article and we'll thank our sponsors real quick before we do.

A highlight from AI Today Podcast: AI Glossary Series Data, Dataset, Big Data, DIKUW Pyramid
"The AI Today podcast, produced by Cognolytica, cuts through the hype and noise to identify what is really happening now in the world of artificial intelligence. Learn about emerging AI trends, technologies, and use cases from Cognolytica analysts and guest experts. Hello and welcome to the AI Today podcast. I'm your host, Kathleen Walch. And I'm your host, Ronald Schmelzer. And we've been focusing on these past few many podcasts on some of the key terms you need to learn about artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data. And we're starting to focus a little more right now on some of the data -centric concepts because data is at the heart of AI. Data is what makes machine learning systems work and machine learning systems work on data. No data, no machine learning. It's pretty straightforward, right? And many of you may think you have some fundamental understandings of, you know what data is and it's all about. But, you know, sometimes it helps to have a grounding so that we can understand where we are and where we're heading. And that's part of what we're going to focus on, especially in today's podcast. But as we continue on, there's going to be more in this particular series. Now, of course, if this is your first AI glossary podcast you're listening to, you should know that we have plenty more in this glossary series, tons of terms and definitions that you may know, you may not know, you may be confused about. And even that is only part of, in general, what we have here at AI Today for you. We have this huge library of great interviews and discussion and diving deep into automation and ethical AI and doing AI right and failures of AI and best practices. So you're in a great place. There's a reason why we are one of the top three podcasts in the AI category. And you are part of that reason. Your listenership helps us get us there. So please provide feedback. Make sure to subscribe and let us know what you think of the various podcasts that we've been doing. Exactly. But, you know, thank you to everybody that has reached out to let us know what you think of the AI glossary series. We do love to hear your feedback. You can find us on LinkedIn. You can go to Cognolytica .com or you can email us at info at Cognolytica .com to reach out. So we've put together a comprehensive AI glossary that's published on Cognolytica .com. And we always link to it in the show notes as well so that you can check it out. But we want to spend some time on today's podcast going over a few of those terms. As Ron mentioned, data is the heart of AI. So we said, hey, let's have a podcast and define the term data and data set, big data and also the DIKUW pyramid. So, you know, what is data? At a very high level, it's the basic unit of discrete values that convey meaning, facts, quantities and other units. That computers operate on for further processing, interpretation and analysis. Data on its own does not provide any specific meaning. It needs to be analyzed to gain insights and meaning. And so that's really important to understand. You know, we collect tons of data every day. We're creating so much data, but data on its own really doesn't provide anything. We need to do something to it. We need to analyze it to actually gain insights and meaning. So related to data is this term of a data set. Well, what is a data set? It's a collection of data in a logical group. So there's no minimum quantity of data in a data set. You can have, you know, two pieces of data. You can have a million pieces of data. There really is no quantity there, which is important to just conceptually understand. And data sets usually have some common attributes or contexts that groups the data into a specific data set. So maybe it's, you know, first names or it's data collected from, you know, zip codes or certain areas. It's not just very randomness, all kind of combined together. So it does have some common attributes. You might think this is really basic that we're explaining it, but sometimes it's like you're having a firm foundation on data. And the fact that sometimes we talk about data, but we really are meaning something else is a common confusion point. This is kind of what gets us into difficulty, especially as we're talking about data and we're spanning across the organization. When we talk to data scientists, data engineers, people who are managing big data systems, chief data officers, data privacy, you know, we use the word data and all those things. But the meaning of that is not the same. If I said three is three data, three is data. But does it have meaning? No, I could be saying three is an age. I could say three is the number of cookies I bought yesterday. I could say three is the amount of money in my bank account. These are all completely different meanings. And that means we need to start thinking about we're applying more and more meaning, which means we're applying more and more data. We're applying more structure. We'll talk about that as well to our data to give it meaning. So related to this idea of data is this idea of big data. Right. And big data is is a concept, you know, but it does have a definition. And sometimes people focus more on the data part of big data and sometimes people focus more on the big part of big data. But the idea of big data is that it's just this umbrella term that's used for data of some significant size, complexity, variable format, variable quality, frequency of change. And it's not a specific size. There's no like hard cut off of like this is big and this is not big. It's the fact that we have challenges. That's what makes it big data. It's the fact that we have enough of it that is either changing a lot or it's complexity and a lot of variability to it or just sheer size that presents challenges for us in storage and processing and analysis and integration and even usage at the required levels that we want to use at whatever detail or speed or accuracy you want. You can have a big data problem with only a thousand data records if I'm telling you that it's changing literally every millisecond. Right. You still have that same challenge. Or I'd say I have billions and billions and billions of data records, but they're all in storage. They're all in archive. So maybe it's actually not that big of a problem. Right. So it's it's this the fact that the data represents a challenge at some level of scale that represents the big data issue. So as mentioned, we could talk about this when we dive deeper into so -called visa big data, which is that big data is not only about the size, about big size. It's also about data that presents any sort of challenge in analysis or storage or manipulation or movement or understanding at the speed that we need to get that understanding highly, very high variability. And so when we think about all that, we think about sort of where this big data is. It's not just in one place, right? If we think about all those challenges, big data is not just the platforms you go, oh, I solved my big data platforms by buying this one company's product. Sorry, but that's not a solution to your overall big data problem. That solves one issue, which is where do I put it perhaps or how do I query it? Right. So we have platforms, we have processes, we have strategies, we have architectures, which are maybe we have to design the system in a very particular way to minimize some of our problems. We have conceptual approaches like the data lake, which we'll talk about, which is not a product but a concept. And the idea is we want to get this increasing value from data. We don't want that. We don't want the data to be a problem for us, be a bottleneck where all of us are like, we can't do what we want because we have actual problems getting that data or analyzing or something. Right. That's when big data becomes a problem, not a solution. Right. And we want to get that increasing value from data as it continues to grow, as it continues to change. And if you're able to do that, then you can have a competitive advantage. And if you're not able to do that, you have a competitive disadvantage. Right. There is sort of a more formal definition of big data. You might see somewhere as big data refers to data sets, which we just defined, that are too large or complex to be dealt with by traditional data processing application software. That is a formal definition that only focuses on size and complexity, doesn't focus on some of the other issues which we'll get to. And those issues that we talk to are generally referred to as the V's of big data. But we spend some time talking about those specific V's in another podcast. Exactly. So plug to subscribe to AI Today so you can get notified when we talk about that. So going along with this idea of data, right, we said data on its own really doesn't do much. You need to be able to analyze it and, you know, be able to analyze it to get insights and to get meaning from your data. So this brings us to this idea of the DIKUW pyramid, which we love to always visually show because it's a good visual representation. So it's a pyramid and it's a good visual representation to show the increasing value that can be derived from a base of data. So should, you know, be in case you haven't heard it, what is the DIKUW stand for? So it's data, information, knowledge, understanding and wisdom, where, again, data is at the base of this pyramid. And it helps to address that higher value information and operational needs. Because as we said, you know, data on its own, it's just really basic facts. So, yes, we've collected all of this. We have tons of data. But what do we do with it? Well, when we move to the I level, now we're being able to get a little bit more information, right? So the who, the what, the where, the when of that data. Moving up one more level, we have the knowledge, so the how. And this really is where machine learning sits in the pyramid. Moving up one more level, we have understanding. So if we want to think about this, this can be common sense, machine reasoning. We're not quite there yet. So we're not quite at the U level with machine learning. And then finally at the top, we have wisdom. So this is, you know, thinking about human level wisdom and insights that we can gain. So, again, visually, we just like to show this as a representation, think about it so that it makes sense for you how you can gain insights from your data. So with that, you know, understanding terms is one thing. Hopefully now I know that you may go, why did you define the term data? Well, we want to make sure we're all on the same page with the terminology that we have. So defining these terms at a high level is one thing, but understanding how to put them into practice is another. And that is really what, you know, we're big advocates of doing AI, right? We want you to succeed. We've put together this glossary series because we want you to have a high level understanding of these terms, so you understand what they are, how they relate to AI, machine learning, and big data. And we've also, you know, are big advocates of CPMAI methodology, which helps you do AI right. So if you haven't yet done so, we encourage you to go to our free Intro to CPMAI course.

Are You Ready for a Serious Relationship? The Truth You Need to Hear
"Do we need to be within ourselves before we start putting ourselves out there on the market of being in a serious relationship with someone? Well, one of the things that a lot of people make a mistake with is the, it's going to take one to forget one. Okay, nothing could be further from the truth. Taking, getting involved with someone to forget about your ex is such a bad idea because it actually ends up making you feel so much worse because you're not healed, you're not recovered, you're bringing in a lot of baggage from that past relationship. So even if the one in front of you might be Mr. Right, you're still so caught up in the past that you're not going to be able to see the good qualities in this person that you're meeting up with. All you're thinking about is, you know, comparing this new person to your ex all the time and you can't appreciate what is special about this new person because your true desire is to be with the ex. That's if you are not the one that did the breaking up. So, I mean, maybe even you had good reasons to break up with the person, but jumping into another relationship before you're really open, honestly open to being with someone new, that, that is definitely not the thing to do. And in over 30 years of working and helping people in romantic relationships and trying to help them reunite with their soulmate or whatever the case may be, I have never found that to be a good idea. So that's one issue. The other issue is what are you feeling about yourself? Are you feeling lots of self -doubt? Are you feeling not good enough? Do you still have negative intrusive thoughts about your past, whether it be because of past relationships or even your deeper past and childhood and unresolved conflict with your family members or whatever the case may be. So if you're going through a lot of that, you are definitely not healed enough to have a good, positive, fulfilling relationship. Many of us that have had a, had a lot of struggle in their childhood and trying to prove their worth to neglectful parents, try to do the same thing in a romantic relationship and hope that our partner can help to fill the void, but that's not going to happen because this is not a parent. Okay. So if that is something that you think upon self -examination that you might be struggling with, then you need to address that first because there's, there's no one that's going to make up that difference. You have to appreciate this new person as a partner and not set a standard of your expectations of what a parent should be doing, like giving that special attention or, or all of that stuff, because this person is supposed to be your equal

A highlight from THE HASH: SEC to Challenge XRP Ruling in Case Against Ripple; FTX Claps Back at Creditors
"Hey there. Welcome to Coindesk TV. Welcome to The Hash. It's the best show on Coindesk TV in my humble opinion. I'm Zach Seward. We're joined by Jen Senassi, Will Foxley. They both agree. Best show. Good stuff. That's a fighting word, Zach. What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Is that a compliment or a diss for me? It's a compliment. All of them. We're this, all of us together. We bring so much. You know, Jen, you have multiple shows. I'm not throwing shade at the other show, but this show. Sorry, Lawrence. This is what it's really all about. I have to agree. There you go. Love that. All right. It's pretty good. Enough hemming and hawing. My bad, folks. Let's get to the stories of the day. Will, lead us off. What's up? Okay. Let's go to FTX land and talk about bigger problems. This is a tough one. Creditors and debtors are fighting it out after a draft reorganization plan was filed by John J. Ray III, the new CEO of FTX and the FTX estate. Of course, they're going through this chapter 11 process, which is going to be drawn out for quite some time. They've been at it for well over six months at this point, and they've been racking up a lot of fees. The creditors here are not super happy with the handling of a lot of different aspects of the estate. For one point, they even issued that, Hey, why is the treasury not being put into UST bills so we can earn a yield on top of all the money that is waiting to be distributed to FTX creditors? The estate has some thoughts about that. There's some back and forth here. At the end of the day, I think it's just two groups arguing over a vast sum of money that is owed from one party to another. This is a story as old as time itself, right? Like chapter 11 back and forth. Jen, I got to throw it to you. What's your take on this one? I'm imagining when I read the story, I imagined FTX's new management, like in suits, you know, all the lawyers that are making all that money that we spoke about way back when trying to talk to like a bunch of degents who won't turn their zoom cameras on and just getting absolutely frustrated. There are some real great nuggets in here if you read the footnotes and the whole thing, but I think it makes sense. Like FTX's management needs to be conservative. They need to look at this whole thing holistically. I think this is one group, it's the group of unsecured creditors who are saying, no, you need to do X, Y, and Z. I think they were suggesting putting some of the money into long -term crypto holdings. They're talking about US treasury bonds. And, you know, I think that's a little bit risky when you're looking at getting as much money as possible back to all of the people who are owed money in this. There's a lot to dive into here, but Zach, I want to get you in first before we dive down that rabbit hole. I do like the part where it's just like, we're going to put it all on red and we are going to weight it back in one spin, baby, let's do this thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like that meme. It's like that, I don't know, I forget which movie it is, but the Las Vegas meme where everyone's like gathered around the craps table, like various disfigured injuries, and you often see various sort of crypto figureheads placed into that meme. And you can imagine the degens on the creditors side being like, yes, we can do it this way. But really, it's just a tug of war between two parties seeking to establish power over these proceedings, right? I think this is very much in response. This is kind of John J. Ray kind of clapping back and saying, hey, creditors like pipe down. I know you said this thing where you want control over who's making these decisions. I think that was the previous week that the creditors committee came out and cast a little shade on how the estate is handling things. And hey, J. J. Ray the third is going to clap back. If we know anything, this man does not mess around. We've seen this guy come out firing time and time again. He's ready to roll sleeves and put the fisticuffs up on this one. So interesting to see, again, the war of where it's escalating between these parties who see different priorities and how this should be handled. And this is some tension sort of spilling out into the public sphere. Will, what do you think? Three bits and pieces here. Maybe it's context. Maybe it's just kind of fun facts. I just want to bring up one. There's this debate over should FTX reboot FTX 2 .0. As it were, John J. Ray the third and the FTX estate has hinted at it and maybe even like suggested that they might move forward with it. Certainly a lot of creditors and debtors who want this to occur because they think this is possibly the only way for them to see more of their money, typically in chapter 11, and we see like maybe like 11 cents on the dollar get paid out. Eventually, I mean, Gox Celsius, there's so many different stories in the past where we haven't really seen the money go back completely. Another few thoughts on this is one, the debtors have issued in this note, a complaint that they have not met with the estate at all. And it seems to be some frustration there because the FTX estate is spending so much, like millions of dollars, like the hourly cost for these things is incredible. Yet they're unwilling to meet with the debtors in this situation, which strikes me as a little bit odd, but maybe they just don't want to deal with it. And I suppose if I was in their situation, making a lot of money, I wouldn't answer the phone either. I don't know. Jen, I have to add this to Tidbit and they are, I guess, looking for solutions if we want to get the unsecured creditors some points here. They the reason that they were suggesting that FTX look into short term treasuries was to help offset that 330 million dollar legal fee bill that we spoke about on the show, I think it was months ago now. So they are coming with solutions. You got to give them some credit there. Zach, I'm going to hand it off to you for last words. This story will never die. This is the story that will never die. Maybe we can talk about it 10 years from now, if we're lucky. Oh, wow. It's kind of like all the other FTX stories too, right? Whether it's like got new information about Allison or Sam or whatever, it's like two different tracks for the same story. Yeah, you got to have, you know, like the, you got the A storyline and the B storyline. You got the suits sparring over various procedural updates. And then you, you got the juice over here. You got the, you got the Machiavellian and you got the personal drama, you got all sorts of stuff, all sorts of stuff. Maybe, maybe when Netflix finally makes the documentary, they'll use a clip from the hash. That is my dream. We have been in a book about this. Yes. Shout out to Brady Dale. Now Avaxios, go get that book. All right. That's it. We're going to change gears. We are going to go to an update on the Ripple case. Now, last month there was a big judgment from a federal judge saying that certain sales of XRP satisfied securities transactions. Others did not. And now the SEC is appealing or is asking for permission to appeal that judgment a in major case that has been closely watched in the crypto world. When this judgment was first issued by federal judge Annalisa Torres, who was seen as a partial victory for Ripple and a partial victory for the industry writ large. So clearly, the SEC is advancing its case that maybe those programmatic sales also qualify as securities transactions and they're asking for a certain type of appeal on the matter. Jen, I'm going to throw it to you. Everyone was super duper bullish about this decision from Judge Torres, and now they may have to take it back to appeal. How does that sort of change our understanding of what happened here? This is another story that just will keep going on, I think, until the end of time. It feels like we've been following the Ripple case. It did feel like there was like a moment where this entire industry took a breath and thought, wow, this this is a small win for us. It's a small win. It gives us a little bit of clarity, a little bit of direction. We, of course, have seen since then Coinbase has referenced this partial win in some of their filings against the SEC. And now I just feel down in the dumps again. Of course, there's still a trial pending here. And now we have the SEC filing this appeal, which I think everyone expected. The SEC said that they were going to file the appeal. The part that I'm going to watch and that I think is kind of interesting is Judge Torres said Ripple did not break the law when the XRP token was sold on public exchanges because purchasers had no reasonable expectation of profit based on Ripple's efforts. I just wonder if we're going to see Ripple's efforts come to light here compared to the price of the XRP token. Ripple has made a lot of announcements about acquisitions, new projects, new products, and if that is going to be some swaying information in this case, because I think that it's not a far cry to draw a parallel between Ripple's new project and the price of the XRP token, even though Ripple has definitely distanced themselves from that narrative. Will, what do you think? Yeah, classic Ripple. It's not our token. We just found it out there. I don't know. It was in the wild somehow. Going back to like the lawsuit here in the case between SEC and Ripple Labs, the programmatic selling part that Zach brought up, this is the thing that confused a lot of people, and there was definitely a lot of lawyer opinions on this, including some op -eds I've written on Coindesk, so definitely go check those out for an expert's opinion. From a layman's opinion, just looking at this, it seemed a little odd that you could have this broken up into two different tranches, right, where we could sell to VCs, we could sell to banks, we could sell to institutions, and that's not okay. But if we sell it onto an exchange where there's just retail clients and they're not really having an investment contract, they're just purchasing, I guess, like a commodity in this case or something like that, then it's okay. And it just didn't make sense to a lot of people when they first saw this. I only saw a few lawyers who were looking at that and were like, oh, yeah, that checks out. I think it also, if it stands, sort of cuts at the heart of how a lot of crypto lab companies or foundations do their sales of assets when they create them, or quote unquote assets. Oftentimes we see private rounds where initially there's like a premium uncreated, and then they divvy up that pre -mine to investors, to insiders, to the foundation, to the early team, and then they do a huge sale to the retail, either through like an airdrop or listing an exchange elsewhere later on. So let's take a world coin, for example, they did this, right, where they gave some to early investors, they gave some to the team, and then they gave a ton to market makers to be able to keep the price of the token pretty steady. And under this ruling from this judge, a lot of that would be broken, right? Like, would you be able to give a token to market makers to even loan it out so you could have a price? I don't know if you can do that anymore under this. It seems like you could only really sell it to retail. That seems odd to me, it seems like it's going to change. And I don't think it's a surprise to anyone to see the SEC go against this, or at least try to challenge it. The outcomes from it could have huge repercussions for how everyone is looking at the token market. Zach? Yeah, my understanding is that a lot of these sales sort of date back before established best practices were set up right for a lot of these token distributions, right. So this is this is from an era in which a lot of the regulatory kosher practices were being embraced. So I think a lot of this space has evolved. And I think there is a question as to whether or not this will impact sort of the current understanding of how tokens get distributed to early investors. I think the SEC had to appeal this one because, Will, as you mentioned, it really undercuts Gary Gensler's argument that almost everything except for Bitcoin basically is a digital asset security. Now, I mean, I think my understanding of the ruling was that it's not really the securities, it's not really the assets themselves, it's which type of transactions they're involved in. And that was sort of the fine line that Judge Torres was trying to distinguish here, right? You know, similarly to how in the Howey test, it stemmed over an orange grove in Florida, right? The oranges themselves aren't necessarily securities, but if they are involved in a securities transaction, then they meet certain requirements in terms of disclosure and other things that need to happen, right? So the understanding, at least on the industry side, was, hey, the assets are just like the oranges. They aren't inherently securities, but if they're in a securities transaction, then certain rules will apply. And that's what Judge Torres was trying to articulate, whereas Gary Gensler has been trying to say, these things are securities, they look like a security, they walk like a security, they quack like a duck, I don't know what I'm saying anymore. But he was saying that that is always the case with these things, that they are by nature of their existence are our securities. Whereas the judge is saying, no, no, we need to look at the specifics of the transactions in which they're involved. So a lot of people, I think, within the industry specifically saw that as a pretty reasonable explanation of how it can be both at the same time, a security and not a security. And now I think the SEC is at least taking another shot at advancing their case here, such that other claims relating to other assets can be supported. But yeah, I mean, this is I think, I think a lot of lawyers, this was definitely the thing where a lot of lawyers on crypto Twitter were sort of placing their bets in terms of what would happen. Some were more cautious that an appeal would would occur. Others were indicating that there would likely not be an appeal here. Now we see with this particular type of appeal that the SEC is going to have this one looked at again, under video review, but who knows? There's a new social marketplace on the block and it's called Calixi. The platform hopes to empower content creators to build personal economies and interact directly with their fans. Joining us now to discuss is Calixi CEO and co -founder Solos Sisay and co -founder and NBA star Spencer Dinwiddie. Good afternoon to you both or good morning. I don't know where everyone is. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Good morning. All right. Let's let's talk about the launch of this. It's been in beta for a while. It's now officially launched on yesterday's show. We spoke about Grimes coming out in the media and saying she actually made more money from her NFTs than her music career. Talk to us about the experience that creators can have on the app. As we look at monetization of the individual holistically, I think you're going to get some of those familiar features that you see from like in OnlyFans, et cetera. People being able to message, video chat, and then Calixi isn't very unique in the fact that they can create individual experiences. Like I have like a jump shot tutorial, things of that nature. But yes, it's all about monetization of oneself. Also, you can post your NFTs, et cetera. We have Web3WAD in there running on Hedera. But yeah, I mean, it's about monetization. So let me ask this one to you. This has been a long time coming for you guys, right? This project, I think you've been working on it for three years. Talk to me about what it means to get this fully launched today and what you learned over that process of cobbling this thing together over those three years.

Ask Candidates About Addressing the Police State
"Us in the face that I'd say probably one of my top five issues. My number one issue is most definitely the police state. The police state, well once the police state, the the cement is fully dry on that and we're almost there now. It's difficult if not impossible turn to it back. No one voluntarily relinquishes that kind of power. Joe Biden has automatically corrupted the United States government and its institutions. So the police state is the number one issue for me. It's also, you know, I get the question a lot from listeners, you know, what should we be asking these presidential candidates, congressional candidates? the The first question you should be asking is what they're going to do about the police state because if we don't fix that, and what I mean by that is very specifically the weaponization of law enforcement and moving them from a public safety function into a political one. Once that happens, once that chasm is crossed, it so that's probably been probably my number one issue and an actual plan, an actual plan to do it. I don't want to hear just about draining the swamp another
Andrew's Podcast on: 50 WAYS TO SUCCEED AT WORK
Your Ultimate Guide to Asking the Right Questions at Work
"My research I've learnt that people have three significant concerns about asking questions at work. The first one is, what are the right questions to ask at work? The second one is, what questions should I ask on my first day at work? And thirdly, what questions should I ask my co -workers? So let's start with the right questions for you to ask at work. There are no stupid questions, no right or wrong ones, only more or less relevant ones. The first issue you might ask concerns your personal growth and development. For example, you might ask your new boss, supervisor or team leader. What projects can I work on to be more involved? Or, can you help me create a personal development plan? Another question you could ask concerns communication. Are there any aspects of our communication here that are not working? Then there are specific challenges, roadblocks and concerns you might uncover, such as asking your senior colleague, What things make your job harder than it should be? How could I make a significant contribution? Who do I need to meet to help make a difference here? You'll also want to ask for feedback on your performance. How am I dealing and how can I improve? When can we meet to discuss this? And then there's company culture and your motivation. How can you help to make me more satisfied at work? What matters in how we work here? What must I absolutely not do here? And lastly you could ask, How could I support you, my manager? What can I do to make your job easier? Now the second question people have when starting work, or with limited work experience is, What should I ask on my very first day at work? You can probably think of scores of things to ask about, especially on your first day or week. But how about some of these? Or see your expectations for my work in the first 90 days? When will I have evaluations and informal check -ins? How can I share my ideas? Can you tell me about the organisation's vision? Is there a company vision statement or a set of core values? What are my main objectives for my first week? And who do I report to? What are my essential daily tasks? And don't miss this one. How do you measure success around here? The metrics. How often do you want me to give you updates? What are the expected work hours around here? Finally, the third concern that I uncovered in my research is, What questions should I ask my co -workers? Your new colleagues may be busy, but most will gladly pause to answer your questions. Just make sure that you do your questioning when they're less busy, or fix a time when you can meet and talk. Your questions to co -workers might include, What do I need to know about the organisation's culture? Can I assist you with anything? What's the organisation's biggest challenge? What do you like best about working here? What should I be reading about my role and the industry? Can I join you for lunch? How does team building happen around here? Naturally, you have to be selective about which questions to ask. But these give you a broad picture of the sort you could ask in the early days of your job.

Joe DiGenova Reacts to Hunter Biden's Potential Federal Charges
"A heading here from NBC News, which would seem to corroborate this, just the headline, federal prosecutors have considered four charges against Hunter Biden. My issue with this, although it does come from one Ken delanian, who is known to be a mouthpiece for the intelligence community. Having dealt with him, I had to hang up on it. They say in the UK has form. But there's one issue with that. They've been sitting on this investigation in Delaware for more than two years. Two and a half years. So first things first, we'll talk about your solution in a moment. Your reaction to the breaking news is this credible that they want to prosecute Hunter Biden? Yes, yes, it is. But here's the problem for them. They still have a complicit media on their side. So they're going to pull punches even when they might be telling a partial truth. This investigation has been sitting in Delaware for much too long. Which is a state that basically the bidens control. That is 6 years. It's Mississippi 1964 in Delaware.

Is ETH a Security? Why Gary Gensler Couldn't Give a Straight Answer
"SEC chair Gary gensler's dancing around the question of whether eth is a security. In the house thinking committee hearing earlier this week, what did you think of chair gensler's refusal to state whether or not Ethan is a security? Look, eth isn't a security. It's frankly pretty obvious to me. But even if it were, it's too late to do anything about it at this point, right? The SEC has statutes of limitations. Eth was first issued before 5 years ago. So there's really very little that the SEC could do about that right now. Now, stash of limitations are very complicated things. So there's a lot of asterisks there. We won't get into that here. But I think that chair gensler is facing an uncomfortable reality, even if you wanted to do something about it, there's nothing he could do about it. And he knows that if he's caught in a sort of trap there, if he declares, yes, I think eth is a security. It could have all sorts of terrible knock on effects in the market and would really have a devastating effect on the consumers that he's purporting to try to protect. On the other hand, and he said, what eth is not a security, then you'd have a 100,000 crypto projects saying we're just like eth. What's the problem here? So he's caught in this very uncomfortable position where he doesn't want to say anything. But of course, if you have the chair of the SEC who can't even tell us a basic thing like whether eth is a security and then in the same breath, tell us, but everything in crypto is very clear. The rules are very clear. The guidelines are very clear, it just comes off as nonsense to everyone else who's listening to that.

What Led the Rage to Arrest and Beat Tyre Nichols?

I have nothing but sympathy and sadness over the death of 29 year old Tyree Nichols, like, I think almost everybody in the world does. This is one issue where finally we've seen a little bit unified. We're all disgusted and angry and sickened over the beating death of this Memphis FedEx driver. But I can't stop wondering what caused these police officers to collectively fly into a blind rage. I hope they stomp his ass what? For what? What did he do? Reckless driving he didn't turn his turn signal on? What did he did he coached through a stop sign? Was he taunting them?

You know what I mean? I don't want to make it sound like he did anything that deserved getting beaten to death because he didn't. But what in the world led to this kind of fury, this kind of violence, this kind of rage, I don't get it. I do not understand this at all.

He says they all need to be primaried. They gotta go. Agree or disagree. Agree a 1000%. They all need to go again, they're rhinos, and they're part of the group think. And they just go along to get along. They're a part of what Trump famously calls the swamp and the swamp has a lot of creatures in it that are very ingrained in below the sea level, right? You don't want to stick your foot in the swamp because it might get bitten off. And these are the people that just go along to get along. You know, Todd, you and I know these people personally, some of them. And they are afraid to come out and speak their mind. They may think something differently privately when the door is closed, but they're going to go along with the crowd. And you know, you see this in all levels of life, you know, whether you're in elementary school or high school or a university student or in the workplace, where someone will say, well, what do you think and people are really afraid to voice what they think?

You crawled along. You wait about two hours. They showed him my paperwork with my application for the HVAC showed my Virginia address. They wouldn't turn me away and I went and drove up and roll down my car window, rolled up my sleeves and got my first shot. Amazing. I have no freaking idea why this can't be done in the D. M V.

Way less risk of dying than I am? I know. Okay. And and by the way, and Brad thank you for the call. In the other outrage that there is your 30 year old teacher. Uh, is moved to the front of the line under the guise that they'll come back into the classroom faster and help our Children out from the horrific repercussions of remote learning. And now their education association is trying to keep that from happening, so they got the vaccine and they still won't go back to work. All right. What's your number? One issue. Thank you, sir.

"CBS Sports Radio If you're between games and their field Football League playoffs, congrats to the Ravens of Baltimore, just advance to the playoffs. Mark Jackson gets the playoff monkey off his back and had a pretty good game. I will again watching the game while doing a show is not the easiest thing to do. I got to watch. The first hour before my show started, I'll give credit to the Ravens defense who helped Baltimore just three second half points in putting up their 20 to 13 victories. Lamar Jackson rushed for 136 yards on 16 carries past 479 yards on 24 attempts. Completing 17 of 24 No T D did have a pick. Uh, Mark Jackson, the runner got the job done more than Lemar Jackson, the pastor. But he's got a quarterback win in the postseason, which he didn't have already had an M V P in his back pocket, but didn't have a postseason when he does have one now s Oh, yeah, We got more NFL action. Come today. We'll get back to that because I do want to spend a couple of minutes right here right now. Talking about the return of the National Hockey League. They will drop the puck. I'm Wednesday night. The NHL is back, and that means we get a chance to punch up the Lee, analyst for NBC on era NHL coverage. Former NHL standout player coach now turned analyst and horse racing to generate much like yours Truly at all. Kick joins us here on CBS Sports Radio. What do you know? A radio? Jodie Mack. Happy New Year, Man. Great to be with You Hope you're safe and all your listeners and stay in staying on the Right side of this thing and good to be with you and looking forward to dropping the puck on Wednesday night, Uh, got the Season in place, and we've got one issue right now going on in Dallas said Nothing that we haven't seen from baseball or football and even the MBA to a certain extent. So we're gonna try to manage through that. Hopefully be able to entertain the respectively. Understanding what's going on in the real world. So looking forward to getting back to work on Wednesday, understood and we're looking forward to getting your sport and you back to work at the same time. Um, you're feeling okay. All good. You're healthy. You feel real good, really became a grandfather over this pandemic for the movement, sleep very excited about that. My oldest son, Eddie and my daughter in law. Erica brought in archery, Marie Old Check into this world back on July, the seventh, so very lucky and Get a chance to see them every once in a while So yeah, things things in the old check world are not gonna work. Very good right now. Very nice to here. And yes, I will make funny one call you grant by every once in a while now going. No, I am old now. That's Yeah. Yeah. You were sufficiently been quite all right. Last year NHL restart in the two cities in Canada. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you did all your postseason broadcasting from a studio correct. For the first part of it. I did both. I was in studio. And then I was at home for a period of time. And then eventually I worked my way to the bubble in that, Metin, Um and I was there some 27 or 28 days, So I had a little bit of everything. You had a little bit of everything. Um, As of right now, what are the plans? And I know they're fluid for everybody on the planet. But everybody in their own little world have their own fluid little plans. What are the NBC plans for the regular season and going forward with your broadcast locations? Yeah, full steam ahead for the national shows The plane is right now for me to be in Tampa. On Wednesday night for a banner raising In a building that I don't think there's going to be any fans sitting there watching the game between Tampa and Chicago, but It is. We are still in this. Uh, you know this this worldwide pandemic, so the plan is right now to be In the buildings, but again Hey, you know that the virus is going to dictate And so you know, we can all get on the right side of this. So if we gotta work from home or studio or get in the building, we're gonna do the best that we can and just like the players and the teams. No practice games. No exhibition came to drop the puck for real and let's go. So that's what we're gonna plan on doing on Wednesday, Danny all check Lee Daniels for NBC on their coverage in the National Hockey League. Our guest here on CBS portrayal, All right, when you do report to Tampa, and that will be weird if you're in the building with just the players and no fans whatsoever. But you did that last year s so it isn't like something you haven't done before. What you are going to have to do it without your partner, Doc Emmerich retired this offseason and, um, I know how big a fan you are. I've only said for years, the document is not only best hockey announcer of all time. He's the best announcer off any of the major sports after he does hockey better than anybody else does basketball or football or baseball or any other sports, So I know how difficult to task it is to know that you're not gonna have the best in the business by your side. Did you even make an attempt to talk him out of it? I would concur with everything you just said, Um, Jody Mac. You know, I had an idea that, um It was coming. I don't think it was right around the corner. Um, but when Doc called me and said he was gonna ride off into the sunset with his wife, Joyce, you know, he's very much a piece and I couldn't be happier for him. Look, I mean, you know, I mean, we're all disappointed, but Um, he decided that he was done and hey, we're gonna We're all better for it. And we're gonna have to work twice as hard now because Doc had that ability to be able to Area game carry a story and you know it's It's gonna be different for AKI fans. Because any time you heard Dr Voices, you know Jody Macarena Big hockey fan in any time you heard, Dr. Boy she knew it was a big game like you know, it was Was must see, you know, must see and must listen, Television and, you know, being his partner for 14 years, Um It was certainly a I one of the highlights of my career. I mean, playing coaching, broadcasting just professionally and mean to be able to sit next to Doc and see him. You know, just work and prepare and the love and passion he had for the game. It certainly you know, rubbed off on me and I really enjoyed in very honored to business partner for that long but Is, he said, Look at you know he's passing the torch and and now it's up to us to take it to That highest level that we can get to, But, you know. Hey, um, but long winded. I didn't try a tall I think I may be trying to do that. Prior to him, letting me know that he was going to ride off into the sunset. But it made you look it way everybody wants to know. Well, you know if we if we want in a pandemic, and if we weren't doing this, you think start, Doc would still be doing games. You know, I can't answer that. But He, uh he's left an incredible lasting legacy and the very problem business partner for the last 14 years. That's a question I'm gonna have to run by Doc at some point, which I will get him out at some point during the season. I can assure you that I'm probably a slightly better friend with you, but I'm also friends with Doc. So I think I'll be able to get him out at some point, and I just wish he was a jerk. Cause Then you could say, all right, well, you're great at what he does, but he's a jerk. He's also like the classiest guy on the faith to the planet of the great One of the greatest. One of the greatest just makes it that much more difficult to be without him. But you will muddle through. I'm guaranteed of that. Um, with what you guys did to recapture your season and have the playoffs last year in a differentiated format, which I think works great and had a really good Stanley Cup run, even if it was completed north.
