"New train lines. Looking at things like flexing some of our highway money to support transit operations instead of building more climate polluting roadways. And we have this kind of archaic law that requires all of our transit agencies to get about 50% of their revenue from the fare box. And so we need to do away with that well and realize that we can't hold our transit agencies to these kind of untenable revenue requirements when we know it's the service they provide is such an economic economic and social benefit. Yeah, I talked with within the last week or two to the director of the RTA who said that that model of half the money from the pair of box just isn't sustainable, but are you seeing a movement in some other direction? I think we are. I think because we've been facing these challenges and headwinds. I think people have we always want our chance to be better, but the transit system that Chicago has is your remarkably extensive and we are well served relative to other regions. And that's a big part of our city's secret to success. And I think now that we're seeing it under threat, people are waking up and realizing that we can't just take the system for granted. That is Jim Merrill. With the active transportation alliance, and I thank you for spending this half hour with us.

"A Jimmy Johnson. I mean, you don't know. You never know. You never know, man. Snowball Derby. This past weekend, that was big. It was Josh berry won the poll for the thing. Brad Keselowski missed the advancing to the main event, but he did give it a hell of an effort. I don't know if anybody watched the preliminaries there, but the last chance qualifier race. Brad Keselowski started way back. I mean, it was way back and it was like ten laps to go or something. He was 12th. It was, it looked like there was no chance for Brad Keselowski to advance. And then all of a sudden, things started getting crazy. He got up to 6, and I was like, oh my gosh. Brad's losing. Because the top four advanced, but now he ended up 6th in his last chance qualifier race. So he missed the field, but he did give it a heck of an effort for his first attempt. And then in the actual big show, he had time to Jessica and Eric Jones getting into it. I don't know if you saw that. But Jessica touched the rear of Eric Jones car launched up on top of it. Just obliterated Eric Jones was number four car. It was like riding with him. Yeah, that was just bizarre. That number four car was destroyed too, so Eric Jones is bid at a third snowball Derby victory was over. But the guy who's been so close so many times Carrie literally has led like 92% of the laps in the last four snowball derbies. Derek Thorne, and yet he had never won one, finally pulled it off this year. After all the trying after all the craziness, he's run the last like ten snowball derbies and has been attempting to win this thing. He's been so good in the snowflake race. The companion event that during the week and has won that several times and is always a contender, but finally breaks through Derek Thorne wins the snowball Derby. Amazing, amazing. See, we got stuff to talk about. There's lots going on. Yeah, so we've got lots more than that too. I mean, let's talk about 2020 threes coming up and the money team racing, Floyd Mayweather's team. We saw them kind of compete this year for the first time after hinting they were going to be joining for like two years. Joseph shrigley, it took Chris dot com, I actually talked to their team co owner, Willie ach moody. And he says they're continuing to build their program. They want to expand past the four races they ran this year in 2023. And they want to build the team around Connor Daly who came from the IndyCar circles. Wow, okay. Yeah. Yeah, so Willie says the team is looking at a technical alliance down the road as well. So they're very open to doing things. We're at your children's racing. It has helped them to this point. But says they're open to any Chevrolet team that's willing to talk. And Daytona 500 Kerry, you ready for this? What's up? So obviously, the big rumors that Elio cash Travis will be going to track house for Daytona, right? Right? Well, the money team racing has also had talks with Elio Castroneves. We could be seeing Elio Castroneves in a Floyd Mayweather car at the H one O 500. Holy crap. That's crazy. Weird to hear. Are we living in? I love this. That's wild. Yeah, crazy. Very cool though, very cool. Hey, what's this whole thing? The RTA race team alliance. They want to create their own series in the off season? Yeah, so this is the other thing that's going on. Now obviously under current NASCAR rules, there are some stipulations that can't be broken here at this point. But yeah, the RTA, the race team alliance, which fields all 36 of the chartered teams in the NASCAR Cup Series, kind of an ownership group where they band together and help each other either get things their way at NASCAR helping with negotiations or help each other get sponsors, travel, money, all those other stuff. So that organization is having talks to run exhibition events in the off season, like you said. Away from NASCAR. So it won't be NASCAR sanctioned. It won't be NASCAR saying, hey, go tune in this week for the X missionaries with the RTA. So you won't be getting any of that. It'll be RTA on their own. And so obviously with part of the stipulations in the current agreement with NASCAR, which runs through the end of the 2024 season, the RTA can not start up their own rival racing league. So no full-time racing league with points and a champion all that stuff. But the RTA believes there is legal workarounds that they can do in exhibition event or exhibition events. As long as they're not running for a championship, the car also can not be a current NASCAR race car. You won't be seeing the next gen cars. You won't be seeking cars, you want to be seeing the current trucks, but you might be seeing the old gen 6. So who knows? They've got plenty of those left, so I don't know if that's within the workings of the agreement. I don't know if it would have to be late models or what it would have to be. But the RTA is definitely thinking about doing it. And when the RTA usually thinks about doing something, they find a way to do it. So we'll see how it goes. One of the things they said is because there are struggling to turn a profit. Does throwing money at something like this? Is that going to help? So I don't know. That's a great question. The whole key to it would be getting a TV partner, because if you don't get a TV partner, you're not going to make money on that. It's just not going to happen. I think they've got to have talks going on with the TV partner about this possibility. But if that happens, I see it happening. If they don't have a TV partner, I see no way this turns a profit at all. But it just kind of does show how the crazy links that the RTA is now willing to go to try to help these teams turn profits in this sport. People still question if they really aren't turning profits. And I'm sure NASCAR is wondering that same thing too, but at some point, these balance sheets are all going to be shared with each other and people are going to understand where everybody's at. But as it stands right now, the RTA is claiming they're not making money. And the teams have to make money.

"A medium fast court. I suppose compared with the Davis Cup, the doubles doesn't match tiebreak in the third set so there are a few things that are kind of helping us here this week. And last night, the doubles and four minutes or 47 minute doubles. There were a lot of relieved stuff. Yeah, we were blaming Jill titman for that. I mean, that earlier about, yeah, for close to three hours, yeah, putting everything out to Kyoto. Interestingly, you talk about the court speed as well because I feel like we've obviously just had the Paris mosses. They have finished that went past 3 a.m. and I felt like they were asking for trouble on the slow court that they had putting 6 matches on it's always risking risking the situation. Just talking about this event specifically and the nature of it going to Glasgow for me it's been very kind of quite a quick turnaround, you know, allocated, I think four or 5 months ago and traditionally I feel like we've events you'd like to have a longer kind of lead up time to that. What sort of some of the emotions you go through as tournament director when it's been allocated to say Glasgow and you starting at the very at the very beginning and you're like, I've already got so much time to put on an event. What's going through your mind there? So what's going through my mind? My to do this. They did panic. No, I think, yeah, I guess the art of the art of trying to stay in control is the calm outward atmosphere whilst a duck you've had like crazy underneath the water. It's having in all honesty, a great team around you, clear roles and responsibilities set. Clear plan of action, regardless of how long you've got to plan and deliver a vent. You want to plan as best as possible in the lead up to the event because all events, it's always firefighting, whatever comes up on the day, and it's giving yourself the capacity to be able to do that. Talking of firefighting, there's been a bit of a challenge around the WTA finals, finishing on the Monday, and then some of the top players are also here now. As a tournament director, the things that you can do to try and make that easier transition from one time zone to another and to try and facilitate the players in that area to make it something that doesn't cause too much of a pain point for the tournament. Yeah, so we as the RTA are collaborated

"Brought in Jimmy. I was wondering why you were disagreeing. So vehemently, I was like, okay, I mean, I think no, it was a pretty good driver. Nah, that sort of been a great opportunity for him to be back at the 48 car for a little bit. That is actually a good point. I wonder if they even entertain that thought or if maybe Jimmy thought about it too. I know he's had kind of a long season over there in IndyCar as well. And that's all done with. And he's kind of talked about wanting to do bucket list things for next year. I wonder if maybe there was thoughts of him running one of these to kind of get ready for a possible NASCAR start next year in this next gen car, which he hasn't run before. No extra logical thought. See? I wonder if maybe there was a thought about that, you know? Before he gets into that, hey Kat, before he gets into that track house machine for next year. Which seems like it's probably going to happen. We'll see. But yeah, no, that's interesting. And the 48 for at least the next three reasons. Hey cat. Playing with a bell bell ball is not a good idea during an audio show. Don't you love? Our animals. They don't care. They join this show a lot. I have dogs that are always scratching and jingling over here, and then you've got cats playing with jingle balls. Good times. So what are you hearing about this profit sharing meeting they had with the teams? Yeah, so I was not included in the select group of media that were at the meeting with the team representatives, but based on everything we've seen from it. The teams want more. NASCAR once more. So it's a situation that you expect. Both sides want to have the bigger slice. But it's a situation where I think there's going to have to be something the budgets here. I don't know what happens if it doesn't. I don't know if the teams go will find. We're not going to run because that doesn't seem very smart. So I really don't know what happens from here. We'll have to see, I'm sure they will have to meet somewhere in the middle. I don't know if it would be NASCAR's side of the middle or the RTA's side of the middle, but some things are going to have to change here because the teams are frustrated that 60 to 80% of their current revenue comes from sponsorship deals. So, and when they lose a sponsor, Joe Gibbs Racing did with Kyle Busch's number 18 car, they risk losing the driver these days. You have a generational talent like Kyle Busch and you can't keep him because you've lost Mars and you can't find a company to replace them. It's a short turnaround. You're trying to get it all figured out. You've got prospective sponsors that are ready to sign on the dot, and then it falls apart. Now you've lost your generational talent in Kyle Busch, and obviously they've probably got ty Gibbs to fill in their going forward. They didn't try hard enough. And they'll probably be just fine, but at the end of the day, that's the argument from the RTA is this is the situation these teams are facing is you've got big
Chasing Poker Greatness

"The point of poker. It's not fulfilling. There's no growth. There's no learning. It's lazy. And meaningless. And I mean, to me, it's just kind of pointless. Like, why not just go do something else, like scam something else or get into algorithmic trading or whatever it is that you want to get into. But yeah, so anyway, not only do I not see not only do I believe that it's awful, but it also just, I don't see the appeal. It doesn't make sense to me. No, I'm with you too. I feel I've thought about that in the past, and then I always play devil's advocate with myself in terms of, well, if I wasn't a poker pro and I saw the ability to make money, like maybe I would struggle to understand that reasoning of like what's the point, but that's, I feel the same way, which is like, I wouldn't play this game if I wasn't competing. Like, if you just gave me, if you gave me the classic superhero thing where I could see the hand, would I play? Like, no, dude. I got enough money to be happy. Like I wouldn't play where I could see the cards. What's the point? There's no point left. Like, okay, you've got an unlimited money hack. Congrats. So I understand people's pushback, but you hear things all the time. The problem I find is they're unsubstantiated. And for me, as a sponsored pro and a representative, I can't just be firing unsubstantiated shots at like, oh, I heard this and this and this, I can't be putting people on blast like that because I think their integrity is important. And I need some sort of proof, but people bring things to me with proof. I pass it along the party poker and say, hey, I heard this. Here's the thing. And take a look. In this way, I think poker is always been a community that has we've kind of policed things ourselves for better or worse, just like over time and yeah, even an issue such as body, right? If you think of the incentives of the platform that has a major bot problem, it's not always advantageous to get a handle on it. If those bots are generating lots of revenue, collectively, right? The platform is kind of incentivized to kind of look the other way. Honestly. No, I mean, absolutely. I think there's a few. I mean, the RTA is a big deal. I think bots is obvious, but I feel like probably the easiest to catch of all the things that I could think of. I think some people get around RTA in terms of like, oh, I'm just learning, so I don't use it when I'm playing, but then I look up what I did after, it's like, well, that's also an unfair advantage. You know how nice it would be to be able to play and to learn your mistakes immediately with immediate feedback. That's a great advantage to actually check guess and check yourself while you play. You can't do that. I actually would have agreed with you a few months ago, but now I think I disagree with you because what I found out from starting.

We work with the organizations broadly around helping them to build operate and run. They're used in their collaboration networks in their organizations. That's really our remit. We do that on a global basis with partners and customers.

Doug, I think if you look at what's driving the RTA gender at the moment and sort of where organizations are putting their push in energy, just a lot of work around hybrid working. Agile remote remote working and it's really tending organizations towards building out what we call digital fabrics or digital workplaces to really connect up all the employees inside their organization, but out. But here's a challenge really. Those same organizations are also running. Existing Cisco Systems for their voice networks, so the challenge in the question is just how do you manage both these two worlds, whilst you're transforming your communication network essentially and moving that up to the cloud. That's what the challenge is. The real danger here is that organizations embark on these journeys. And they get to one I call this midpoint crisis and not so much a midlife crisis, more midpoint crisis..

"So fortunately for them, the statistical analysis is far more clear when somebody is using a real-time assistance in chess that you can actually catch it within a few games. So you don't need a very large sample to know that people are playing perfectly because we know what perfect is in chess. It's actually very, very deterministic and doesn't have a lot of noise like poker does. So in chess is actually test dot com is hammering all of those people because it has an incentive. I sort of silently hope that that would be the result by allowing RTH, right? And by allowing RTA is maybe websites will realize that potentially they will lose customers, although I'm not sure if that would be the case because like I said, I don't see money changing hands in any different way. Again, reg versus reg is still going to be a losing battle for both due to rake and then reg versus recreational. If you want to use RTA, you live mine on the table up to you. But if you don't go use RTA, then the regression player again is going to have the same experience. So but I think that actually the website may decide to go in a specific different direction. But let me be specific. How can if we do not allow RPAs, which I very much see the point of the argument, right? I mean, it feels we're letting it virus into our games. And I sort of get it. How can it play like myself? You know, like a professional poker player, how can I be guaranteed that I'm not going to be cheated at the highest stakes? Well, that's kind of the interesting part of it, right? Is that as long as I've been playing poker online, I have known that this was part of the deal, right? When you sit down, you understand that there's incentive here for people to cheat, therefore there will be some people who cheat. And I mean, I do want to talk about one thing regarding RTA and it's pervasiveness, right? What I find, what I think is probably the major fear of players at large, is it they're in every game, right? Some form of RTA is at every single online poker table..

"And perhaps by allowing steroids, people realize how terrible they are, and now they consciously try to stay away from them rather than like I said, be involved with the sketchy doctor that tries to conceal certain facts that make them untrained untraceable, excuse me, in their bodies, and potentially induce them with other toxins as well. Yeah, so now we've had a ten minute talk on steroids in baseball. I think we can tie this into the current poker situation regarding RTA, which stands for real-time assistance. Real-time assistance. Yeah, because again, I mean, I asked the question on Twitter. And I think it's very relevant here. The question is, would you allow RTS systems online? If you were you. And I'll pass the question to you, maybe again, we can do the good old, what do you think? The response was, which is not very difficult to guess. I would say not a lot of people publicly advocating for using RTA or allowing it while you play it out. I guess because it is philosophical Friday, right? The first question that I have or would like to flesh out is what is RTA, right? What is considered real-time assistance? Because a hud is technically real-time assistance, right? It is giving you feedback in real time and is assisting you. So like we have huds, they're push full charts, there are preflop charts, all of these things are assisting people in real time. Exactly. And again, it's one of those things where do we draw the line? It's one of those questions that it can go anywhere from a very simple starting hand chart. All the way to go to has all the way to essentially solvers that are work real time. And what is your view on that? Should RTA's for starters, I mean, to make the question simpler, let's say, should we draw a line on what can and can not be used? Let me start there in terms.

Visa and Mastercard blocked Russian banks from their payment networks leaving Russian customers unable to use Google pay. This led to chaos and Moscow's metro system as payments were declined forcing commuters to join long lines at the ticket offices. Hollywood giants Warner Brothers Disney and Sony stop film releases in Russian cinemas, meaning they do not get The Batman, which is about to come out. Note, I wish Batman could break into the Kremlin and just take his mighty Batman hand and strangle that guy. Russian TV channel RT is set to be taken off the air all around the world. I don't know why anybody would go on RT. It was always so disappointing when I hear it in American would go on that bunch of garbage. Let's see what else do we have here. British car manufacturer Jaguar, Land Rover, have halted deliveries to Russia, BMW is also stopping exports to Russia. And you know who that's going to hurt. That's going to hurt the children of the oligarchs who probably get a BMW for their 16th birthday. Motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson suspended business in Russia. Have you ever seen the picture of Putin writing a Harley with no top on in Ukraine? It was like ten years ago. It's disgusting. It's disgusting. Adidas has suspended its partnership with the Russian football federation. Apple has paused. This is big. Apple has paused all sales in Russia and is limiting Apple Pay and other services there. And you know what's coming up, it's a big dog show an international dog show Putin just loves dogs. Hitler did too, by the way. Well, they can no longer take part in the dog show. The kennel club says it condemns the invasion of Ukraine by the armed forces of the Russian Federation and they say no Russian dogs allowed. And that's just a little bit of it. Dennis Miller has permanently walked away from his show on our team. We see on our team. For the past couple of years, yeah. Yeah. I mean, before he died, I know Larry King was and there was some politicians and former army people. And I was always just so, so disappointed. That's just propaganda. That's all that is. You don't have enough money. By now, William Shatner has a show on RT that so, I mean, as far as I know, as of this moment, he's not pulled the plug on a Dennis Miller has. The U.S. intelligence community has deemed RTA state run a Russian state run propaganda machine. So you have to ask yourself before you take that paycheck, what you're doing.

Did you get a T-shirt yet that says I'm Toby Christie? I need to get that word. It has my logo that above it. I am Toby from Toby Chris dot com or something. Right. Yeah, I need to do that. So we'll get that eventually, but now it was really cool. It was a fun event and they pulled it off perfectly for the first live event. That is very cool. Very cool.

I mean, my wife will be having a kid, but I'll be there, so yeah. Wow. So yeah, third one for them. That Logano family is growing quickly, isn't it? There's going to be lugano's and NASCAR for a long time to come, I guess. For decades and decades and decades to come and that's awesome. That's exciting. Lots of Logano's. Yes, all of the logo. How about this, the RTA, the race team alliance is partnering with candy digital carry for their own new line of candy racing NFTs. Um, that sounds delicious. Something. I guess, yeah. So what these are, candy? NFTs? Well, so it's not real. So that's the name of the company is candy. The NFTs themselves are actually really spiffy and cool. They're gonna start, they drop on the 15th, and you can buy them all the way up till the 20th. So the day of the Daytona 500, they're gonna be 23 of them. And it's all the RTA teams with their team's 2022 Daytona 500 paint schemes. So it's a digital car, kind of like a digital die cast that spins around with the paint scheme.

"We're still talking about the general population. And so they're different concerns this kind of individual level of a person who has very high nutritional awareness in a community that often has quite high nutritional awareness, making a joke about the fact that it may be difficult to get protein versus at the population level where protein typically sits give or take around the RTA. And that's not assuming entirely plant based diets. So there is certainly a consideration in terms of protein adequacy in the population where there to be that kind of drastic shift across the population. And although it does relate to kind of total energy intake as well, we know from populations and these are often studies in the subcontinent, for example, that there could potentially be an issue with protein adequacy as it relates to growth growth attainment in infancy and childhood. So I do find there are unfortunately too few people in that community that I find the plant based and vegan community have become quite defensive over the issue of nutrients insufficiency or deficiency. And seek only to kind of dismiss the fact that it's a consideration there rather than actually like let's just have a conversation if there's going to be this seismic shift. Because it's not just about the conversation of what an individual might consider. It's about the conversation from a policy perspective on a food fortification perspective. I remember having a conversation with the public health nutritionist on this topic, who had been in a discussion with alpro, I think and they had alpro had said, but our consumers haven't asked for iodine. So if that's where the kind of the industry side of the fence is thinking, well, we'll do it if our consumers ask for it, but our consumers don't know what they need to ask for in the first place..

"More trouble for that lump to i should say the proposed loveland whitewater park as Came down over the weekend that it won't be built with state tourism dollars seven seven now as we get into our local news roundup and northern colorado voice one or three one thirteen ten k. f. k. a. mornings with gail from the collision specialists studios Working from a piece out of biz west of by amazon and paul hughes The city of loveland has withdrawn from state economic development award process that it indeed hoped to tap to help build a whitewater amusement park and hotel now apparently the move came in september on september twenty fourth but announcement was actually made on october second so it puts the plans for the state supported whitewater park obviously in limbo. But according to a city spokesperson. The park is only mostly dead. It's only mostly dead and could be resurrected in another form now. You had kelly jones city economic development director saying that the city would be talking with a local development. Martin lind who was among the parties. I involved with the regional tourism effort. That could have built projects in windsor loveland and estes park. Rta is the state regional tourism act engaged wondering The colorado economic development commission chose five projects statewide to participate the loveland project among them and set quote an award process that would have provided financial support for the loveland whitewater adventure park. This according to a press release parks costs were estimated at two hundred million dollars with twelve million of those dollars. Coming from state grants. Now according to jus- team bruno who's assistant to The loveland city manager She said that we're not able to show substantial progress to this point on the project. The state deadline for evidence of said progress would have been november twelfth. There's no way to bond project in that amount of time. She went on to say project. Progress had been plagued by financing difficulty for several years This year Additional trouble came by with the departure of the previous development. The developer this p. Three partners which had presented a new rather slim down idea. The council indeed had move the project forward in august this after P. three exited stage left now. Three developers had responded to a new requests for proposals from the city. Loveland is set in september. It wanted to finish reviewing their proposals by earlier this month the finalists had been selected and city council review of a proposal or a development agreement was scheduled for october nineteenth but once again the city decided it could not meet the state. Edc's definition of substantial progress so it withdrew nonetheless. Bruno said there's still a lot of interest in this type of development in northern colorado. Maybe in loveland jones said the city will be talking with lynn. This week martin as finalist. According to mr jones or mr jones. Excuse me that would be kelly. Jones martin is a finalist brought an eighteen and brought property to the table. He steps ahead although that doesn't preclude us from talking to others that said Kelly jones a scaled down. Waterpark is not likely to be built on the previously disclosed site. East of the lublin sports park in east slob. Land project won't look exactly like the state mandated. Jones went on to say. Now the question is what does it look like without state money. How can we create a destination tourism project. obviously it will have to morph now. Jones said the only remaining project in the original regional tourism authority plan. Is that horror film. Venue plan for danley hotel..

"But i think that just requires you to rethink how it's structured. Which is like what. I had to do with ward at because right now you probably feel the weight of everyone asking you questions. Yeah or it's not just me it's really are. Ta's like your mods. Oh yeah it's for some reason people already assume i'm too busy or whatever but rta's don't and there's this level of customer service. Yeah that is like almost expected of people. Yeah and we have to figure out ways to communicate that you know because our intent is to be helpful. Our intent is to talk and be community. And help you through these things. But then there's like these weird nuanced times where it's like that's too much. And how do you communicate that to another person over the internet and not make them feel bad and just help them understand. So i i totally feel and i think like when you talk about building a world. This is like another facet of it. It's not a video but it's just another place where you have to take that feedback and it's not that it's like you like i know you want to keep building ward and i went art slack channel in our community to grow too but like sometimes it does need that pause. Yeah he think like what's going on. I don't really need the pause right now. I mean can feel like we've had those kinds of pauses in different ways. Yeah i mean. I think that just goes back to like something. I try to actively practice which is not being reactionary. Yeah and it's so often like even with like when political things happen. It's like quick reactions all the time. And it's like people are just regurgitating beings reacting and they're not actually thinking about impact. Yeah so it's like when we started to abolish the moderating system you know. I've taken a long pause. Just like really sit and think through it and you know with youtube to. I'm like taking a pause. Because the stuff i was making didn't feel right to me. So it's like how do i regroup in make things that feel right or even like when political things happen. Were so quick to be expected to like have an opinion on something. It's like no no outlets like honor pauses in like allow that breathing room to happen so that real change real opinions can happen and that we're not performing keep up because because a lot of people don't take pause so maybe someone's tired of the content that they're making and therefore instead of pausing to regroup they feel like they're chasing something that actually doesn't exist therefore there making things that doesn't connect with our audience therefore they feel attacked by the algorithm therefore they feel like they just are losing sight of it. But it's like it's okay to like take a pause don't feel people are so invested sort of thousand million people people or following like. It's so funny to think that like the attention that we receive we feel entitled to it and that we feel like it's always going to be there and that like the tension is like. Oh my gosh. I'm going to take a three week. Pause and i'm gonna apologize for it..

"So it'll be pretty easy for us to build up these databases and then we're going to hopefully convince sites to hire consultants and help make their security team more robust or if they're not willing to pay us will give it to them and get them to just work on it because if they can do it for free. They're more incentivized to do it. But since most of them blacks the competency in this type of stuff Hopefully they'll be willing to work with us or lease build things out based off of our suggestions and that because with rta this is the only way it can be combat Like there are a bunch of tools that are up market in terms of like you know. Gto study tools Like the big database ones like gto. Wizard giogio check I think Simple simple post simple three way. There's a handful of these other types of products that are all competitors with what we're about to launch and some of them do have pretty good job preventing cheating with them. Some of them very bad job at so like one of the things that we're going to do is we're going to build copies of their databases and then give them to training sites or consultants. Give them the poker sites and they'd be like. Hey these people are using this program cheat we build an exact copy here as you can see exactly what doing okay band and so these things are actually are things that that companies can do that players can do in order to detect them things like colluding in ghosting. That stuff were as always been an issue. Online it's fine. Continue be an issue online. Not really that much we can do about it but at least said nowhere near as big of an issue as bautzen. Rta's those are the biggest issues on a tournament. Jay tells me how to play gotcha like i'm still clicking but you know the brains are doing the work. I got a question about las vegas.

"Compared to a bit apples to oranges as they gave different. Designs was in the ballpark of eight thousand dollars. Sketch up as a free extension called. Cut list all you need to do. Is mark all of your three quarter inch prefinished plywood as say read and cutlass well then produced a list of the cuts needed in that material which you can then send to your seat supplier for cutting. It can even produce diagrams of the optimal cuts on the four by panels if you want the downside compared to rta cabinets or a first full service cabinet company is a little bit more assembly time but possibly a lot more design time if you don't have extensive experience with sketch up or another design program. That's this part of the process. Took me longer than i expected though. My sketch up skills were very rusty. Since i wanted highly customized cabinets anyway. I was going to be largely stuck with this design process. Either way this could likely be farmed out to someone else for a fee. Well that was super helpful. What do you guys think. Yeah i'll tell you when. I worked at that shop. That did those retail installations in new york city. They had initially had a single Small really slow. Cnc router that we would use for only specialty things but eventually they invested in this big giant one and it would cut out like you cut thirty individual pieces out of a sheet of plywood in less than ten minutes. But how long would it take to tell the machine to do that. Work rob because i that's the thing is that there's some variables here you've got to consider like if you you gotta be comfortable with designing you gotta be comfortable with designing and a cat and a computer and computer software in order for this to be worth it for you but then again maybe did you find it difficult to learn that run It's certainly time consuming to to learn that to learn because you also know if you're working with the machinery itself you have to transfer the files from whatever. Your design software is over to a program. That's that works with your cnc machine. Tell me if i'm wrong. But i've heard him described as design programs and then tool path programs. Yeah yeah yeah and then of course i mean if you're doing this stuff yourself with your own. Cnc machine you have to learn all the little subtleties of like running the tools at the right speed and depth and it depending on the sheet goods that you're using. Sometimes they leave little tabs that need to be cleaned up depending on how it's fastens to the better the of the router. So there's you know there's a lot of variables but it took us a while to get used to the person who is designing the stuff to make it the right way for the machine to do it efficiently and without making a mess but once we did it was like oh you screwed up that piece. Just yell to the guy in the cnc machine in he'll spit out another piece in like minutes. So that's the that's the cool thing about it. Is that like if you have access to the machinery. Even if it's farmed out to somebody in your town you could just basically say hey. Can you re run that that and it it it definitely. It wasn't so much about increasing our efficiency on really simple stuff but when we did more complex things it really really dr or efficiency. I was surprised affordable. This is i mean to have someone all your pieces for in. His case was one hundred and fifty dollars. That seems like a steal. That does seem but i guess as these machines become more prevalent and more affordable the prices come down same similar to like how.

"Right around there. Yeah so what. What did you end up getting so you. What was your new interest-rate then it was three point. Five percent right before it really got. Yeah so you paid off the light street and it took out some cash. Presumably we just. We just took the cash out to pay off the line. Okay perfect yeah okay so going back to the build out. So what's the lee have this. You said four hundred forty square foot rectangle. What you build on that. So we didn't kind of as a studio feel to it so it's a rectangle but it's kind of an l shaped living space so we have a full kitchen with dishwasher stove all of it and then Little bit of a living room area where you walk into the unit and then a bedroom there in the bed basically. So it's all kind of one area and then obviously the bathroom is private in the in the other corner. But we. I would say we're pretty intentional with making it function as a great short-term rentals so we really invested in the space for a great bed a great kitchen and a great bathroom. Yeah it's not somewhere that you would probably wanna live for a long period of time but it's very functional and very comfortable for short term rental so when we i think we invested probably a little bit more than we should have. I mean our finishes are pretty. Nice are shower has like to showerheads and it's all marble and it looks great but it's an airbnb photos right and that's all we had in mind. So what was the the flooring countertops the appliances like what were those finish qualities. The aso the cabinets were fairly cheap. But they still look great. The countertops are court site which were pretty expensive. And then we got prefinished maple flooring okay so it is nice flooring yeah i will say the something else to consider when you're picking out finishes. Is you pay a lot more if you wanted immediately so i wanted my cabinets immediately. I wanted my flooring immediately. So i was just going and showing up into local stores and buying whatever they had there that day the cabinets though we got in two weeks from. I think they're called. Rta ready to assemble ready to assemble and they were really affordable. They have horrible reviews online. But i was extremely happy with them. Yeah i mean they. Ship them on a pallet. They arrived our house. I had to assemble all of them and they're and i. I mentioned that because a lot of cabinets they tell you that it's going to take months. Yeah yeah and they're not super high quality cabinets but they look nice a great affordable option for other people. All right so you. There had been some hiccups here. Like you gotta tell something that happened that you weren't expecting on the build or something you up the first initial hiccup was demoing so there actually was some framing in there with drywall and things and i was demoing that and there was a raccoon behind.

Future of Cognitive Automation: Interview with Manish Rai, VP, Automation Anywhere
"Hello and welcome to the today podcast. I'm your host Catholic And I'm your host Ronald Schmeltzer. So today we're really thrilled to be here at automation anywhere for day. And we have a special guest. Our guest is who is the VP of product marketing automation anywhere. How many thank you so much for joining us on today's Today podcast. Thank you for having me. Yeah thanks for joining us today. We'd like to start by having you introduce yourself to our listeners. And tell them a little bit about your background and your current role at automation anywhere. My Name is money. Sri and vice president of product marketing. I'm responsible for all the offerings automation. Anyway I have been in the industry for twenty years and in product marketing for the last fifteen years and I focused on AI. For at least five years out of those fifteen years so really excited to be here and excited to be talking to you and your community who gray and I think you here at at the day. The focus that I a part is intelligent automation for our listeners and intelligent automation has gained adoption in many sectors in recent years and one of those places that people may be familiar with intelligent automations as concert robotic process automation. Rpi So many people see our and intelligent automation as a gateway to more cognitive forms of automation. Such as artificial intelligence and so. What role does play to move? Companies up this ladder of intelligent automation so arbeit is primarily used to buy enterprises to automate repetitive business processes and what? Rta has gotten good at over. The last decade of innovation is going to wear the decides helping companies collected from the systems where the data decides and oftentimes that data is split across multiple it systems. That could be a legacy mainframe system DOS system and a modern cloud based enterprise software and it can find that data stitched together formatted in the right format so it can be used by platforms starts fair. A big value comes in and then often people take that data upload to a platform and the cloud and then it gives you some results and you have to act on them and again our P. is handy is taking those results and triggering the next steps in the workflow in the enterprise system so increasingly what people are finding is arpey is the perfect solution for orchestrating. Ai and it's more so because today you have a fragmented ecosystem of platforms that is companies like Beta robot. That might have good Auto Mau. Google translate may work very well versus Microsoft. Osceola works handwriting. And so when you try to combine that together and use those technologies you pick the best of breed from these solutions and is a natural solution for staging than orchestrating across that and that leads into my next question because I think that in order for organizations to really get and realized the power of intelligent automation they need to combine technologies and approaches including our PA but then other cognitive technologies as well. You know like you said they WanNa pick and choose the best. They don't want to be locked into just one vendor or one solution and we see this around our seven patterns of Aids while the our listeners. Know we talk about a lot on our podcast. So the idea of hyper personalization. And if they want predictive analytics and they want gold driven systems and they want to be able to spot patterns or anomaly. They're going to need different solutions in different toolkits for each of those. So can you share with us some examples where RPI and other approaches are used together to help address some of these challenges and automation? Yeah I think if you look back at the history of the company one of the first Will be spotted. An opportunity was in understanding document. Because when you were can start automating processes in the back office. Many of the order to cash procure to be you have invoices and purchase orders. Which are people? Based and fortunately there's lack of standardization of what invoice should look like and sometimes marketing folks like myself go crazy and making the invoices looking pretty which creates a challenge for technology put understanding and processing it so dot be looked at all the INTELLIGENCIA solutions and David. Not Designed for business. Use It in mind who using our automate these processes so we decided to create Iq Baud. Which was a new category intelligence document processing? Today's the fastest growing category in enterprise software growing faster than our and. It's the fastest growing product line and automation. So that was the first stadium be saw we have more than five hundred customers who are using that and every quarter hundreds of new customers as signing on so it's adoption like. I think we were talking to one of the investors and who was saying that if I was a standalone company. It'll be a unicorn in itself so that's one eighty via seeing tremendous adoption. Second Avia people started looking at it when you're looking to automate. Business processes often the underlying applications change. And you need more intelligence to adopt changes in the application for minor. Changes and computer vision comes into play. That's where we started applying ai sense which uses deep learning and computer vision to adopt changes and also work in difficult to automate environments like virtual desktop environments. Where you don't get legless screen like ice? Gm page streamed as an image. So you have to use computer vision to understand. The different fees are so a robot can click on that field and perform some action then. What we found lately is the number of use cases. Starting couple of years started multiplying big time. We have a big company. That's destructing the hospitality space and David getting thousands of listings from people wanting to list their property on their site and David combat images and people will have to manually review the image to extract amenities and they created a model in using computer vision. Now an rt about takes. The listing sends the images to Google preteen model which automatically extracts the amenities available based on the pictures. And they found that they can approve twice as many listings. Now at me the listings went up to experts because a lot of people who list and they'll be waiting for approvals and they'll abandon the listing so their listings went up to x by using automation. And that's an example and other company to Silicon Manufacturing and they take pictures to figure out defect and people are manually analyzing those pictures look for defects to do they need to reject the way for and now the train the computer vision model in the cloud and be takes those pictures. Upload Staten Automatically determines what should be rejected. So they're a lot of interesting these use cases via beginning to see
The Economist: The Intelligence
Repeat performance: Indias election
"India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi looks at for a commanding victory in the country's election. Results are confirmed his ruling party looks likely to once again have enough seats to form a government on its own. The election was a massive undertaking supporters of Mr. Modise RTA, junior party, were among campaigners of all stripes. Trying to capture India's nine hundred million registered voters. After six weeks of staggered voting across the country. Mr. moody himself went on a meditation retreat apparently with lots of supporters in tow. He posted pictures and videos on social media from temple in the Himalayas. Now, he looks at to rejoin the noisy fray of Indian politics with a renewed mandate. Will the results are clear enough that Narendra Modi and his BJP the party have won an enormous victory today a victory to match his victory of five years ago. Alex Ravelli is India correspondent for the economist based in Delhi with uncanny similarity in terms of the net numbers, the actual results are different. He lost support in some places, but he gained it back in equal measure and other places. It means that he's just won a re election, a single party re election of a kind that no one has one in India before there's a tremendous amount of political power. It is disposable now. And if those results are confirmed, is should we view that as a sort of stamp of approval on, on Mr. Modi's first term, you know, you could take this as a as a stamp of approval on Mr. Mody as a leader? There's no doubt about that. It's harder to sit to call it a judgment on the first term since what? Campaigned on in the run-up to the voting was quite radically different than what he campaigned on in two thousand fourteen and indeed than what he delivered during his five years in office. But whatever the content of the statement, you can say, a great many Indian voters are happy to trust the future of the government to Mr. Mody. So what do you mean by that? What did he campaign on what to the instead deliver? Well, it's interesting, the first time round, if you look at all the slogans in two thousand fourteen it was mainly about development. There is an undertone of Hindu pride, but for the most part, it was about cleaning up government removing corruption of the kind that had plagued the previous government's last two years in office and building building building. There was a sort of unspoken idea that India could grow like China has grown and the slogan that was heard most often in the day of that victory was good times are coming at meant economic good times. Now the past five years, have brought far less. Good happy, economic news than Indians, would one in particular in areas like manufacturing jobs, the motive really staked earlier campaign on, so this time round in two thousand nineteen there was almost no discussion of that. There were vague bromides about development, but for the most part, Mr. Mody and his surrogates chose not to talk about what the economy might do or has done instead to talk about who they are, and who their enemies are and very, very pure red meat so to speak. Nationalism seems to have been the winning ticket for this campaign. You mentioned nationalism Hindu nationalism has played a huge part in this election rights. I mean, how much do you see that playing into into the government with this new mandate? It's an interesting question there's still some space between the concepts of nationalism and Hindu nationalism. Let's suppose nationalism means flag-waving identifying the leader with the armed forces being proud to be an Indian Hindu, nationalism means asserting this. Specific sectarian character overall the offices of government. It's a more controversial approach, and Mr. Modi is used it sparingly usually putting it to his deputies to insist that India is more Hindu than Muslim or the belonging to any other minority and it's played very well in some quarters, whereas for the national press and his own personal, prestige, Mr. Mody prefers to stick to India first nationalism. Well, what about more widely in the region? How will Bangladesh and Pakistan to predominantly Muslim countries respond to this victim if no doubt that the leaders of these countries will phone in their congratulations to Mr. Mody? It's hard to know what they might have wished as an outcome for this election. But there's some comfort and doing business with the same government in New Delhi. But it's notable where relations in particular with both Pakistan and Bangladesh concern that a lot of the Hindu, nationalist themes that Mr. moody is rates on the. Campaign trail, nationalist, Hindu, nationalist end up taking quite sharp pointy aimed at those neighbors on the one hand using series of aerial skirmishes with Pakistan, as a as a calling card for his strongman credentials and on the other hand is a very, very major citizenship issue unfurling in the eastern part of India where the idea that Bangaladeshi infiltrators government calls them are screwing up the demographics, making them less Hindu in particular has has become a sticking point in a lot of those precincts. And that's something that, that is actually quite difficult for the Indian government to talk to the bungalow. She government about. And what about India's opposition parties will everyone feel chasing? What will they do? Now, the congress party if you measured against it's two thousand fourteen results which were incredibly dismal as done a little bit less badly. Still done terribly BJP. It's done. Almost exactly the same which is to say. Efficiently. Well, and some third parties, fared better, others, fared worse. One question people are asking is, how does the congress react to this? Does it collapse in shame, does its leadership change various problems imagining any of those outcomes. But at this point, it's, it's really anybody's guess how the congress in particular react. And what about the markets and investors? How how will they take this JP victory, will the markets are uniformly happy about this, and they have been since Sunday nights exit polls were made public. They were pretty cheerful before that even and today, the, the most watched market index hit a new record the sex now of forty thousand points for the first time. And in one by where the trader said, it's, it's happy not, not so much at this point, because people expect real structural reforms from a Modi government, very unclear whether they're even interested in delivering those, but because there's an assurance that we know what the government is like going. Forward. It won't be fractured. It won't be surprising. The worst it can be as what we just had for the past five years. Alex, thank you very much for joining us.
