"He offers his services to small farms in exchange for food and a place to stay even though he has a little mobile unit so he usually just stays on the property. He stays in his own little wagon slash home. Half of his calories. Actually come from his sheep's milk so he has three or four sheep and one was actually pregnant during the short film and she almost. I thought she was going to have a baby right there. But that didn't happen and there's a little one too. It's so endearing. Fletcher makes cheese and butter from seat. Malcolm forages for seeds fruits and vegetables and herbs. He's created a map for other four injures his region. He makes money. I'm using a site like the thing that trump's tall grass and weeds and things like that so he will do that for locals although he insists that he's not interested in making money he just hopes to serve in his example for other homeless interested in guerrilla grazing uses. The wolf from the sheep's clothes bags curtains for his little travel unit and even helps them with refrigeration system which you have to check out the video for him to explain it as a stove in a shower system made from an insecticide sprayer portable solar power system that big bread and keeps things warm and even charges the cell phone. He believes that he can help solve two problems reduction of small independent farmers and decrease homelessness so definitely check out. This video went homeless. Done group garad grazing by choice. Ever since he needs a better title for that. But i love. I love it. It's he's teaching he's doing. It's Pity of sustainability and arm and. Yeah just sounds. Really endearing super endearing and i weigh more explaining videos fast as i could when you watch it. Watch the twenty six minutes it is. He is such a cool personality so fun and of course he's very non materialistic non consumerism. He has a lot of things that he talks about. That are very important to him. And then he'll talk about the things that he has he finds funny. I know i keep telling you what bob i swear by these. It's pretty obvious. I think But yeah just as lifestyle. It's definitely again. You know this whole episode and episodes on youtube really looking and other people's perspective and living in their shoes. I'm trying to do this more. And more my life and this was definitely one that stuck out to me big time. Yeah it's super interesting and it starts off right off the bat. He's from talent oregon. So i think he travels in oregon. Of course. that's where we're from and that just immediately gives a stronger connection right when someone's from your home state. Yes super cool. Super interesting showers every day. You know again. Stereotypes on people that are homeless. Maybe they don't wanna job. He does mentally want to be homeless so there is a difference between that. I actually had a conversation with one of my friends. And we're citing. How many people that are. Homeless homeless people are not. This is definitely someone that wants to be homeless but super polite. You know does it. He has little little buckets around sheep so they poop into the bucket. So he's like you know we can't leave poop around the take off my neighbors and friends and he always gets permission. Super cool definitely. Check out the video. Yeah yeah thank you so much. You welcome nice all right michael sheet. I'm going to be talking about technology and art and this is a pigment called inman blue. And i am wearing this shirt in honor of ian men blue. We'll talk about that later. But i want to say everything i can about this pigment in these two minutes inman blue is an amazing gorgeous pigment that was discovered in the lattes of professor ma submarine at oregon state university in two thousand nine. It's discovery was very serendipitous and is a great example of luck. Favoring the prepared graduate student andrew smith who was working with masa was exploring the electronic properties of manganese oxide by heating it to approximately twelve hundred degrees celsius and that is two thousand degrees fahrenheit but instead of a new high efficiency electronic material that they were trying to get what he saw when he opened the furnace was instead. This brilliant blue solid compound. This was shocking because blue pigments that are stable at high temperatures are extremely rare blue pigments dating back to ancient times have been notoriously unstable they fade easily or they're toxic as i mentioned in episode one nine thousand five talking about different blue but seeing that this blue pigment emerged from a high temperature furnace professor submarine new immediately that this was a research breakthrough and he knew it was a discovery with strong commercial potential the callum the chemical elements. I want to say a few words about pets. That make up yimin blue are year. Trim indium manganese and oxygen. And if you put together the elemental symbols of the first three of those elements. Why i n m n that spells e. inman which is where this pigment gets. Its name the intense. Blue color comes from the electrons. Moving around and maggie's ion that interacts with the light that's coming in and the intensity of the color can be tuned by adjusting the ratio between india and the manganese artistically speaking the hughes of blue are so beautiful but more interesting or or maybe equally as interesting with this new technology is that it reflects light and so it could be used on buildings to have what's called the cool pigment so instead of the sun hitting it and warming up the building it keeps it cool so much more can be done and so much more can be said about inman blue short short. Yes i'm so glad. I can't believe we haven't talked about this yet. I'm so glad that we did yes. They fired mine in my bedroom..

"You forward goodyear more driven dan. Let's let's do hot news or not news. Ravens lose marcus peters and gus edwards season ending. Acl injuries hot news or not as hot news man. They're almost running. Back is the team that wants to run the ball more than any other team in the league and they're down to their third or fourth string running back. I mean this is. It's tough running. Backs can be found. They can get guys. There's guys out there. They can still sign latavius. Murray's out there you guys are talking about mark ingram. They've already got levian. Bill and devante freeman but none of those guys are part of their program and none of those guys were guys they were counting on and if they like those guys better than the guys who got hurt they would have already been on the team. They have a problem yet. Dan is super hot right. It's spot a thousand degrees up in baltimore right now. They need running backs to help. Lamar jackson out much like you said they don't have anybody they just don't they want to run the football. That is what the foundation of the baltimore ravens. That's what they are. They weren't on the football down your throat and they play solid defense. They lose the top dude on defense in the secondary and marcus. Peters he is he's accounting for thirty one interceptions over the last five seasons. I think that is like highest in the nfl in that timespan so this is extremely hot dan. Do you agree with me or the browns by far the best team in. Afc north the browns are the best team in the afc north. But i don't know about by far because max's point is just making about track record with the steelers and ravens is not to be overlooked. Mike tomlin never had a losing season. John harbaugh's only had one. These are guys that can figure out their problems. Brown look great. But they've proven a lot less than those other two teams hot news or not news. Tj wada grease that four year twelve million dollar extension. Take that il. I took hold that hold that so hot news or not one hundred twelve million dollars extension for years for tj. What hot news. I mean this is one of the best players in the whole league on either side of the ball. So it's important that they got this done he was. He was very cautious about this contract. He did not participate in camp practices. Didn't wanna put himself at risk but you know he was back there this week and obviously he thought things were going well and this is. This is the kind of deal that that makes him. Happy tells the other guys on the team. We're gonna we're gonna make our guys happy and you know if you look at the structure this deal. He got one over on the steelers. The steelers don't guarantee money in contracts beyond here one in this one. They did and the only guy on the team. They've ever done that for before. Has been rothlisberger. See is not news to me. Maybe news to newsmakers into fan base. It's not news the guy's gonna play. He was going to play this year and they were going to eventually give him his money at some point in time whenever you have the defense coordinator and dan correct me. If i'm wrong. You never hear sissy coaches talk about contracts in the public especially in the pittsburg steelers organization so the moment that they talked about his contract and his holdout. I knew i'm like oh pittsburgh going. Give him the money for sure. Not news and again whatever he wants news knows i mean this is why i gave up money right for them to sign guys like tj excited. Keyshawn j. max is presented by progressive insurance playing hot news or not news with dan. Graziano michelle to foia reported the dak prescott will have an mri every two weeks to keep an eye on his shoulder. Hot news or not news news. They're sticking with what worked right like they did this during the during training camp they told us it was routine. It was just to assess where things were with the shoulder. Everything that they told us in training camp looked last night like it was true so i think we can keep a taking the cowboys at their word on this and they're going to manage this issue in a way that makes sure that it doesn't get it doesn't get worse. Yes it's not news to me. I believe in their medical staff in dallas plate there jim our to hit trainer along with gregg and those guys over there dr into net whole staff. I'm just like okay that's fine. I know you're telling the truth because think about this. There's not in j you notice being the nba. There's not a lot of players around leagues that go to other teams entrust their doctors. The dallas cowboys. Dan as you know or one of those teams that people actually fly in to meet with their medical staff. It's like the phoenix suns. People fly to phoenix. Get their opinion on different things not news. I'm with you guys. yes not news. They're doing they're keeping an eye on this all so you do it. Maybe it'd be news if they just didn't look wouldn't be news but it should be if they didn't look at it now you're negligence good nugget from michelle but not not shocking or anything. That's right. that was better than just said about. The dow medical staff is more news than them checking on them every two weeks hot news or not news. How about this one. Dan dak prescott week one performance. Ms hot news like this. We talked about this all summer. What's he gonna be like. Is he going to be okay. Coming off the ankle is the shoulder going to be okay. He threw for four hundred yards. And yeah they lost the game but what was not to like about dak prescott performance last night. I don't go to throw the ball that much tampa bay's got a monster run defense. And obviously they went in with a plan that the only way to try and beat them wants to throw it but the fact that he was able to do it at the level he did is very for the cowboys. This is one of those other hot news. Two hundred degrees right because a two thousand degrees because much like dance it. We all wanted to see what he was. We heard he was doing well. He said he was doing well. He looked wealth. Throwing the ball on certain video clips. But until you get those live bullets flying you gotta duck and dodge in run and slide and do some of the things that he was capable of doing. Last night we had no idea so it certainly encouraging in his hot news. And i'll remind you guys and i'll say it again tampa bay's going to see dallas at the end of the year. You watch what. I tell you my white. My white dr jacket. On last night. I was all in the video about ankle housing moving. Is he planning right. I mean everything looked good. I mean for me. There was no drop off actually seems like dad got better than where he was last year before he got hurt. Yeah i'll say hot news. But not because like i expected to be deck. Right if anything. That's that was like the best version of him. That's the most you could hope for. I think that's the best i thought. I think you can still get a lot better if he can get better than that. That's saying something because he played really really really well really well and had interception an interception was not on him ball. Catch him out hot news or not new. Steve spagnuola says tyron matthew status is up in the air sunday after his positive test for cove nineteen. So it's hot news on a couple levels right. The first of all not having tower in matthew against the browns of brown's offense that we think is going to be pretty hard to stop. It could be a big deal for the chiefs in a game that you know if both teams are really good could matter in terms of where teams are seeded in the playoffs etcetera etcetera. But the other thing is this. Covert situation is going to hover over the league all year tire matthew as far as we vaccinated player which means he could return after two negative tests with twenty four hours in between but that also assumes he's symptomatic it also assumes the doctors okay clearing him this is these are issues that are going to continue to come up and this is a prominent example of one right here in week one that could affect the chiefs chances to win this game. Yeah it's it's hot news because the honey badger is the leader of the secondary..

The whole island is a volcanic hotspot but this shook even the most stoic among them then on march nineteenth walking reported. The world's newest volcano had burst open unleashing a spectacular fountain of love from a tear in the earth's crust. It's called. I'm only going to say this once. Gelding dollar so far. The lava hasn't stopped gushing and neither could we after seeing it from as close as we dared. This is two thousand degrees. Fahrenheit looks like incandescent chunks of molten rock some as big as cars explo- two hundred feet in the air hurled upwards by some of the most elemental forces on the planet at every new cascade of lava the earth rumbles like thunder from an alien world. We watched as lava poured out of the crater changing. Iceland's map forever. It's incredible feel. The heat is over two thousand degrees fahrenheit and a five hundred seat we can still feel as and if you go to close. He can burn skin. We had come to see earth's newest real estate with four thordarson. One of iceland's top vulcanologist. Even he seemed a little starstruck at nature's fireworks not been looking at this for almost four decades. And i still get less when. I see you get mesmerized. I sit there. I can watch it day in day out many eruptions in the world where you can get this clue in march burst into the open in a lonely valley. Once an ancient viking burial ground getting their felt like we'd step back in time. Prehistoric rocks littered the fields as our giant four-by-fours raced along a dirt track. Finding the baron hills is a good show all right god. Spectacular at the top sort arson grabbed his gas mask in case the volcano belched out dangerous sulfur dioxide gas awesome. We followed carrying emergency oxygen. It wasn't long before we were on hands and knees searching for volcanic glass in we have vehicle tuffah thrown out the vent his pieces here. Yes you see you see them in here and the name here. After the goddess of kelly feeling yes came about this way from chunks. The size of a car two little pieces that look like a stranded in all of that coming out of the broken. Yes absolutely the love applies have been spectacular from start but the founding today was was just out of the top chore. Just ten out of ten if there's one person who's on close terms with volcano goddess palay. It's bruce houghton. Hawaii state vulcanologist. He and thordarson have chased lava all over the world so when iceland blue houghton wasn't going to let it pass it goes quiz you can. Many eruptions are over with a day or siah forehead inkling from way back that this was going to be a long one so you got up and flew in from hawaii. I waited i waited. I believed him. But i waited until i was sitting that it had a long life ahead of it. I think it is a beginning of a new eruption period. A new eruption period is and. I think we're gonna see many more options in the peninsula over the next say two hundred and four hundred years that prospect has scientists scrambling to get here the slow steady lava flow fueling speculation of a new seismic era. Most russians like the one in twenty ten at shutdown european air travel. Pack an explosive punch. This one is a dream it means. Scientists can collect a treasure trove of data and home in on the holy grail of vulcanology how to predict and eruption. The worst thing you can do. Ironically in volcanic eruption is to tell the population this going to be an eruption sometime in the next three years and then walk away and leave them with that. But it's it's trying to get to the point where you can offer a few days to a few weeks warning and that's something so thought we don't do that very well. Is this helping. You hit that sweet spot. We hope it will but at the moment we're just gathering the role material. It's not like the motza spring tablets often mountain. It's it's something that takes a long time to to address all of the different lines of evidence. Eventually we will take is the size of vulcanologists to able to predict that also in four constructions it took meteorology over two hundred years to come up with these weather focused. So we've only been here for one hundred years maybe except for the record. One of the next generation of scientists trying to unlock the earth. Secrets is texas. Trains geochemists ed marshall. So this is all still being pushed out. Yes exactly a self-described laborat- he couldn't believe his luck to be working at the university of iceland when the eruption happened now he dresses for the office in a heat protective suit digging past the cooled rock at the edge of the lava field.

What they failed to say out loud here at first it's not a mountain. It's a huge fucking volcano. That looks like it's about to erupt at any minute. Yeah that was one fucking volcano. It was the biggest volcano on the planet. Which as an aside if avalon contains or looks like is mostly the biggest fucking volcano on the planet. How do geologists not know about. Where are the vulcanologists. Could see this fucking volcano from the moon. It was so bad. And yet. I i i've ever seen it and just a quick question more directly related if you know what king baronne ron kenobi is doing. Don't go to. They're looking no. We're in three dimensional space. Where do you expect us to go is. There's only one option into the volcano and when they get to the volcano dive down to be a foot above the law. Did you know that lava temperatures can range from twelve hundred and fifty to two thousand degrees fahrenheit. Now i'm not a scientologist but that's like really hot. Yeah super duper hot. I think is a technical. I would assume that guardrails can handle heat better than a human. That's the only way this can make sense. But like why did they decide to go down closer to the lava like why didn't they go around the volcano or they are desperate to fucking die a fiery death. Yeah which gave almost does because he gets shot by one of ober. Ron magical fisting. Luckily he's in probably caught by goliath. They just keep on. Yeah i like how he catches him and then like tossing some in the air so he relied. It's almost like maybe they shouldn't have flown inside of an active volcano. Yeah you know.

"Hi my name is rotund from pittsburgh. Pennsylvania our local maker spaces reopened and after almost a year of watching blacksmith and videos online. I'm about to pull a two thousand degree piece of metal out of the forge for the first time. This podcast was recorded at two o seven. Pm eastern time on tuesday. June twenty second things may have changed by the time you hear this and hopefully this old car part will be a brand new knife joy. the show. Some great sounder ambi. That's radio quality nbc. Hey there it's the npr politics podcast. I must college. I cover the white house. I'm susan davis i cover congress and i'm mara liasson. National political correspondent democrats have been pushing this sweeping voting rights bill to overhaul elections and it's all but guaranteed to fall apart in the senate. Today the bill would create new federal mandates to make it easier vote toughen campaign finance disclosure laws and enact news ethics requirements on every branch of government. So soon mara. This bill is essentially a wishlist for democrats republicans. Were never going to support it especially not when gop led states have been trying to instate more restrictive voting measures but all this does show how far apart the two parties are on voting rights issues. It does and i think it shows that the parties have been far apart for some time. I think it's important to remember that. This legislation did not come about after the twenty twenty election. This is something that democrats hair ties back. In two thousand nineteen and a lot of it was born out of a response to the trump administration and the abuses of power. The democrats saw happening there so from the beginning. This was never really intended to be a bipartisan effort. As you said it was a democratic wishlist of all the ways they would not just remake but remake government and a lot of ways and so there was never really this idea that this was going to be some kind of big legislative effort that republicans could buy in on but democrats in the house and senate have given it that designation hr one s one usually parties do this for their biggest statement. Bills and democrats with this legislation are saying. This is a top priority for our party even if it doesn't really stand a chance of becoming law anytime soon except since the two thousand twenty election doing something about ballot access has become an existential project for democrats and restricting access to the polls has become an existential project for republicans especially in battleground states. So it's actually something that was originally a messaging. Bill has become the vehicle for this life or death battled from both parties point of view About the future of their parties and possibly the future of democracy. So it's become a really big thing and you know the particular bill that we're talking about. It really has no chances of going anywhere. But there is this separate sort of compromise. Bill being proposed by west. Virginia senator joe manchin and it was even endorsed by former president barack obama but i should probably put compromising quotes because i think any republican senator has shown a willingness to jump on board with it intramural compromise with democrats. Because i you gotta get all the democrats within the democratic party exactly exactly so so what is in that bill. And is it possible that the democrats in congress might be able to pass that separate idea even if it is slightly more narrow. You mentioned made a lot of news. I think it was last week or the week before when he came out and said he would not support advancing this legislation on a partisan basis. His argument is essentially that one. One party changes election rolls. It undermines overall confidence in the integrity of that election. But he's not really opposed to a lot of the substance in the bill. What he has put forward sort of his own wishlist of how he would modify or change this legislation with the goal of trying to bring some republicans on board so in his proposal includes things like national voter. Id laws something that has always been very controversial heavily supported historically by republicans. Who say it's important to election integrity. Democrats have traditionally been more hesitant about voter. Id laws because they think it. Disproportionately makes it harder for poor people and people of color to vote and that was a bit of an olive branch by mansion on his part. As you said there isn't a lot of republican interest in engaging in this legislation. I think it's really important to understand that. Senate minority leader mitch. Mcconnell is the humanly opposed to this bill. He has already promised that. No republican will support it. It is all an obstacle when the policy is flawed and.

"Equate part of the equation to be optimized throughout the entire season. That's really the name of the game optimizing photosynthesis you're minimizing disturbance. You're growing shoots not roots and You know it's not to say that above ground growth doesn't matter it totally does and i chop drop. I chop and dropped my cover crop. But the only reason i did that was because i needed to to to repeat it and oftentimes chopping shoots will stimulate root growth. So yeah yeah anyway. That's kind of the that's kind of software update when it comes to building organic matter. The long-term now. I'll add one more thing. Which is you can apply a bunch of compost or a bunch of manure bunch of straw mulch or whatever take soil tests and see your organic matter. Go shooting up. And that's because they're just doing a test called loss on ignition where they they essentially burn all the burn the soil. I two thousand degrees or something crazy and and then just measure the amount of co two. That's that's lost or combusted. And so you're just that organic matter number. You may have a lot of carbon in the system but it's not truly organic matter. A chunk of wood is not the same as organic matter but on soil test. It's gonna show the same so you can. I see this all the time. Like you know fifty percent organic matter in this amazing garden. It's like that's probably just compost from the last five years and and if again if you'd let it sit for fifteen years at number would just go drop down as those microbes Consume the compost. And i am so glad. You brought up glomming because that's something as a biologist. Something i always have fun. Teaching people about usually are unaware of it but People may have heard of it as soil glue as well. It's often referred to as soil glued because it. Yeah it it's it's Produced by muscular mica rizal. Fungi and The guam lynn helps keep us soil. Constituents together helps prevent erosion in all sorts of other things. I i wrote a children's book called a toadstools treasures to introduce kids to my college and one of the things in the book is the kids go underground and they they see this fungus on these routes that's exuding stuff and they learned that's globulin but i'm stoked that you brought that up but now that that that makes perfect sense Roots not shoots. And i guess shop drop could serve other functions like you're mentioning you know stimulating root growth. Or maybe if you're wanting to cover the soil to prevent that sort of thing you could get that utility out trying to chop drop solely to build you know organic matter that that's not the that shouldn't be the focus that you've got to think about the route so that makes perfect perfect sense and that does harmonize with You know it's all coming back to me now. All these things. I learned like over ten years ago. But that's a great point that chopping drop is i is is amazing weed suppression for moisture retention for keeping sought armor on the soil. All those things will indirectly lead to the mechanisms which solar ganic matter. So it's not to say don't do it. It's to say it's this. Just do it for the right reasons. And that's the one takeaway is context. Context is everything in farming. And so just as. There's no nutrient recipes that work across the board. It's the same thing with practices. Timing in everything it's like. It's impossible to there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Because the context of every farm is different.

Like to an from stacy's brother said don't care and i'm like it's two morning though like you need to get up here. We have problem. The only factory that produces stacy's chips had a catastrophic fire and burn literally to the ground. It looked like one of those laser guided munitions headed because One of the pita chips came out on fire from an oven and was going down a spiral cooling rack and the belt on fire and the belts flammable. And it was. I think two thousand degrees at the hottest point in the center. Later that sunday i had a call from the very famous. Ceo of seacoast me. If we could get out of the deal.

He sent me a picture with today's newspaper and pita chips. Running down big did a u-turn built a shed and got it up and running again and close the deal and it turned out to be a great deal for the company. I guess the moral of the story is. There's no such thing as total catastrophe or trying to be the cool head in the equation. If your efforts wow every deal has its inches. That's great. i thought about this. he's on. I tried to come up with one. That was focused on relationship building aspect and was embarrassing to me which i always think is the best way that and these things.

"You can be pretty sure that you know you're looking at In the in the visible light. If you can see so you have a one of these obscure things like a quasar in the visible light if there's a lot of very very blue light corresponding to the hot sort of hundred thousand degree emission from the disk material right around the black hole that looks a lot different than stars because stars You know the hottest stars can get our several times less Less net so you have or at least a few times less than that so you have that particular kind of temperature signature tells you something in visible light you can also see talked about the Gas it being a fluorescent lamp turns out this really hot disc produces a different set of emission lines of different Different elements in the gas. Actually fluorescence differently depending on whether they are lit up by a black hole this very hot disc of material around a black hole or by stars. And so that's that's another way of telling the difference And then the one the we've been using is in the infrared has to do with again temperature and it's the temperature of the dust so typically Stars form inside of dusty clouds in the heat up that dust to particular temperature and that radiates but also there's this dusty material in this tourists in this other stuff around the black hole in active galactic nucleus and that's getting blasted by this radiation from right around the black hole and that it's up to a higher temperature thousands of degrees as opposed to Tens or hundreds of degrees And so once you get two thousand degrees again. The the sort of typical shape of the colors in infrared look different and we have we therefore have ways of trying to look at those colors in a piece things apart but the real trick comes when you try to model the whole thing all once you date from xrays you today from the optical and infrared and you try to kind of make a coherent picture of the whole spectrum as it.

They're made of ninety percent recycled construction and demolition waste, and they do not need firing so manufacturing a K. brick only produces one tenth the carbon pollution of a traditional brick. Chief Scientific Officer Gabriella Madero says that cakes are durable offer, good insulation and could be made in many different colors. Architects and designers they get really excited because they can be adopting a building material that is sustainable is as durable as what they're used to using, but they can be vertically. And can produce very exciting different new designs. We've all callers that we can produce. Candidate is producing the bricks at a waste and recycling facility and Bro. And as the company expands its production and distribution K. bricks could help lay a foundation for more climate-friendly buildings.

From Glassblower to Software Developer using Free Coding Resources with Michael Pimentel
"And we're back in today's episode. I speak with Michael, Pimentel. Michael Story is fascinating worked in the glassblowing industry specifically for film sets for nine years before he started teaching himself how to Code. And what makes him even more? Interesting is the fact that he doesn't have a college degree. Anti never went to a coding bootcamp. He is entirely self-taught. and. That is exactly what we're GONNA be talking about today. How he taught himself to code. WOW, working fulltime. How guys first job in tack and how he got more roles in the tech industry as time went on. If you tips for staying motivated while learning how to Code. This episode is for you enjoy. Hey. Michael. Thank you so much for coming on the show today. It will on six February I'm real excited to talk with you. You have like interesting. Self taught experience in. That's what I would like to dive into I. Could you share with us how you got started in software engineering? Absolutely so kind of Story kind of goes back to a few years ago when I was working for a company that made life for the film industry now working there as a manufacturer glassblowing really interesting work. Kind of working in a manufacturing type of shop warehouse, loud, working on a lay, that spun in a really hot environment I was there for a really long time and things just. Kinda didn't progress in terms of career. Wise and financially it was just really typical I live in California and California being one of the most expensive place live. It just wasn't sustainable. married and I have a child and that it just wasn't something that I could maintain so it kind of motivated me to start thinking I need to. Probably either go back to school or another another route career choice so i. can you know build to support and have a career that can provide general finance, support and everything like that, so it kind of led me to back to. My interest in computers and everything like that, so I started to do some online, searching and everything like that and it. Brought me to software development coding, you know some booming career choice that is really big right now and everything like that was like okay. Maybe I should go back to school for that, but at the time it really wasn't the best option I went acted. As a couple of glasses time, that's what I could afford at my community college, and then just got really difficult to maintain a full-time job and take one or two classes, and it got really expensive, because my wife was what was going to school in college and everything like that, so it was really difficult for us to support both less going especially you know. Not really knowing what I wanted to do. So I I did a lot of searching and I came across recode camp and recode camp. You know like when you get on their landing page. It's like learning one to code for free and always people learn this way and I was like wait three. This isn't make sense. This will usually scams off there. Start off Rian. Then you have to pay something and everything like that and you know to my surprise actually was free, and then so I started I jumped right in, and just started to go to the curriculum, and it sparked my interest and I was like. Wow, this is really cool. It's it kind of. Goes about in a way that. Gets you interested really quickly? You know with hd Mounsey assassin how you can get feedback on the webpage really quickly. Let's kind of how it started because I. Just I just couldn't go. That route was a canoe into school because it was just really expensive and I already had like a car loan, I couldn't get like student loan. It was just wasn't really practical. It's like cave. Do put myself some really extreme debt that I don't know if it's GonNa lead to something. That's GONNA pay in the end so I had to find another option and looked like learning to code on my own free resources when that resource beginning with recode camp was was the route I took. Awesome so I, want to backtrack a little bit to your. Your work before you got into coding, so you you okay? You said he was a manufacturing role. I haven't made notes that you were a glass blower which anti note that is for movies today shows. Definitely. What is it glasses? Sure okay, so a glass blower, typically like of someone like Google glass large usually someone that takes some raw material which consists of the materials, t make glass essentially depending on what what the? The. End Product is going to be different types of glass. Of course so basically you take them in you hit Heaton furnace, or with a really hot torture claim so that it becomes like in this malleable state, and then you shape it essentially so what I did there? We work on a leave, and we basically built like the light bulb globe. It's spun on a lathe and then you would really. Really hot with a hydrogen oxygen burners, two thousand degrees, and then you shape it based on certain dimensions so basically they would take that, and then we'd have a filament type that would basically you know, have some kind of chemical reaction than light up base off whatever the the fixture needed you know for the filming, so the specific light that they made there was an Hmo which is like a chemical. Name that I really don't know all the details into it, but it basically replicates the color of the sun so like if you see like on film sets, use those lights that kind of are the background that make everything look real, daytime and night-time filming. Those are the lights that we made when I worked there we're one of the few American companies still made them like with our hands, still as opposed to a machine meaning making them in a in a warehouse somewhere. But in a sense, essentially, that's what it was. We were just making them with a glassblowing. That's what I did while working there while I think nine or ten years. We Really, oh my goodness. Wow so start I'm surprised. It was that long because for people. Listening to this show were actually speaking through video so I can see you so I'm like. Wow doesn't look like he can hold a John. Young so young to have a job for that long. Then start another career. Okay? Wow, that awful. How did you get into that? Because that feels very niche, you're essentially making bulldogs. That camera crews in production crews are using on the sets of TV shows I mean. We were chatting before we recorded you live in California. I know like the entertainment industry is. In the movie industry in all of that is obviously very prominent out there is that kind of how that happened or It's interesting so actually the reason why I got into it is because my dad worked in that industry or like thirty years, and I had come out of working at John Juice and I was their. First job actually was working as a team member workup to insistent manager, and then eventually needed to make more money, because I got married at a really young so I. My dad ended up helping me getting the job there and you know I just ended up staying there for a really long time, but it's really how I got into. It was as my dad was in that industry longtime. He had connections and everything like that. Dot It. Did you go to a trade school or anything for glassblowing? No I actually just learned on the job. And still to this day is one of the most difficult things that I've ever done. Physically I for almost anything that can compare it to I think. Programming is its own challenge, but is like the hardest physical. Thing I've ever had to learn because it was like. If you don't do it right the first time, then you ruin it. So there's no going back and fixing it once. You kind of ruin it because the glass that we would work with you'd have to mix it with metals, and then once it's kind of melted to a certain point, you can't go back in extract those materials out of the glass, so it's Kinda ruined. If you don't do it, right is probably there really nerve, wracking or when I did that job. Yeah Wow, it also sounds like it could be dangerous if you're working as really like high temperatures. Absolutely I got burned really bad third degree burns I have degree burns like all my arm from it, but yeah, it was. It's definitely. Was I'm just curious. Did that have any role in your decision to look for a new job like I? Know you mentioned like the financial side, but were there other things, too? Yeah absolutely a that part being okay, so the big part, actually a aside from like the financial reasons that it just didn't pay that much. It was the work environments. It is in the Central Valley of California which in the summertime gets you know triple digits consistently and the warehouse that it is done is basically like a garage. It doesn't have an air condition. It doesn't have any of those things so the environment itself was. was just really really taxing. There's been a couple of times when I had gotten heat exhaustion, I got sent home because of it because like say it's one hundred, three, hundred ten, even outside inside that shop where you'd be working is a hundred twenty one hundred thirty degrees, and it was just unbearable is the if you've our to look back on some old twitter posts? I probably have pictures of like a thermometer in the area. And it's just like maxed out because it was just so hot, but yeah, that's that's probably WANNA be. A motivating factors to wanting to look for another job. It got to point where I was like. I need to get out of here. No matter what this job is just killing me physically, and you know a lot of other reasons you can imagine in an environment like that the people that you tend to work around kind of like really. Not The best work environment because you know on a lot of stress and you know tend not to get along very well when they're under a lot of stress is mentally and just everything that came along with that job, so it just became kind of like a hostile work environment as well so it was like a lot of. Factors that Kinda came into me like I have to get out of here you to find something else you know. Yeah well I mean that definitely makes sense. There's a few other people or one that is coming to mind that. We had on the show in a previous season. Whose name is Josh Camp? And he was a hope I. Stay this right a horse I think it's a horse fairer fairer, hope, number news right, but he would change the hooves on horses, which could also be really dangerous. Obviously, a horse kicks you and I believe it was an injury that ultimately led him to. You know look for other work in in what will link to that in the show notes for people listening now 'cause it. Was You know a few years back when we had on the show and any other episode, I believe it could have had a few where there was someone with a moron. Sick physically dangerous or physically labor job, and that's kind of what led them to to make a pretty big pivot because I can like working for you as a glass blower in those in that environment, physical Super Super Hot. It's totally different from working as a software engineer. And when you started coding, you mentioned using Free Co camp in other free resources. Were you still working fulltime as the glass blower and you are learning outside of that? Yes I was so I would I had a fulltime job there, and because of the heat I would work really really early hours I try to go in his earliest possible as three in the morning. Get off at noon or whatever it was Leonard Twelve so that time that I would get off of course I'd already so exhausted. Matt jobs so I have to go home and sleep a little bit and then. The thing with those interesting with that is. It was hard for me to be going having a fulltime job like that. Maybe some people can relate to that. You know like a maybe just a fulltime job in general is exhausting, but this job probably pushed it because of the environment itself the hostility behind it. That kind of gave me more motivation to be like you know what I'm really tired right now. And I'm not really motivated to to learn coding complete, foreign and difficult, but when I get off work the way I did time, so you know wanting to leave that place so bad that it was just that extra boost motivation for me to learn and study and just do everything I needed to do to succeed in it on just because it was just so bad. I got desperate. Really desperate I just remember that I tend to forget that, but then when I do remember I'm like wow, it helps me to be like really grateful. You know to where I am now, and it was really hard working fulltime job in learning, because I did learn while working there probably about a year and a half, maybe almost two years I was learning. And There was there were times when I would make huge progresses, but then. At the same time thinking like is this really possible? How do people get a job doing? It's like yeah. I can build a website, but there's more to it you like. Is this all I need to get a job type thing you know But Yeah! It was it was hard and I. Don't want to say like Oh yeah. It's super easy because it. Wasn't especially having to work fulltime job in it's all I could just you know. Take days off now and everything like that. I had to work. But yeah. It was difficult. So you were. Doing ice, you said for like one and a half two years where you were doing boom things at the same time. appleaday mentioned this earlier, but you. Free Co camp. Did you use any other resources or you mentioned Community College? Were you taking classes there? Yeah so additional to recode camp so the there's a lot of other things that I did that helped me so free code camp opened up at the time. I haven't camp while, but at the time had lake. Away that you would join and beat up and it was through facebook. It was like face, looking need groups or something, and it was like find a recode camp. Meet up because I. Guess they had like an umbrella. Recode camp meet ups that you can join, and you would basically type in your city in order find the nearest one that was that was organized and everything like that, so I found one in my city and it was you know a few people apartment that would meet up in so I joined that group and I reached out on their. Pre Cochem does a really good job with trying to connect people, so it's like hey, introduce yourself in post on there, so that people can no, no your journey Cetera so i. did that and I ended up meeting up with the organizers of that? Meet Up. We met at starbucks talked about you know everything on learning this and that where you and Rico camped up thing so eventually, I got more involved in that met more people that were learning as well and then now it. Kinda led to Terry member Oh the Mita. Dot Com meet up. There was also the recode. KEMP MEDIA DOT COM for our area that was attached to that facebook group. And, he was like yeah. I just started this. Meet up group, so we can kind of be more broad for people that don't have facebook. We can just Kinda grow up there and he was like you WanNa, help me with that because you know. He was maintaining full job as well, and he needed someone to Kinda. Fill in that gap where he couldn't. You know sounds like yeah. Sure I could definitely help with that, so I helped him. kind of on the organization's portion of that. meet up and like. Hey, let's try to meet. Kind of swap the weeks you know will be on a Saturday one week and then. I'll take the next every type of thing we'd be out of starbucks. And then someone posted on the meet up of feed. Like hey does a hack upon coming up, you guys should come reach out and you know I think it was free, and it was in our area, so I went to the hacker thon and myself in a couple of other people that were in that group, and then we ended up a or ended meeting a few other people at that meet up. That were real professional programmers. At the thoughts I introduced myself to them and everything like that met some really really nice. And probably the most helpful in kind person was actually the the organizer of that Agathon. When. I met him and everything like that. He gave me his contact information in and said Hey, we should get together sometime. I'm Cha and he was a professional programmer, running his own business and everything like that, so eventually I stayed in contact with him, and I met up with him, and I told him my journey and what I'm trying to do, super supportive of us all about helping people in my situation, you know like make connections, and even even help them with an internship and everything like that, and that's Kinda weird kicked off actually where it went from me trying to learn to me, actually making connections in potentially those connections leading to jobs. That was huge. Actually so this person that ran out. Pakistan also ran his on meet up. and His name was a little bit more. Mature he had a organized large meet ups and organised like a speakers where he would teach people how to get started with a new technology and all that stuff you know, so. This percent met up with them, and they're willing to like. Hey, you WANNA work on a project with. Wow real project like that's what I need to experience with a project, so I met with him or opt in some of the people that worked with him, and he ended up working with a lot of other guys that or just people in general men and women that were like kind of doing their own thing that a little bit more advanced as As programmers they're building girl websites starting their own software business in lake, a consulting and everything like that. That's where kind of took off. Is that connection? You know I to a upon met some people, and then it led to more people that we're kind of in the same boat as me, and if they are more advanced, they're willing to help me. By struggled with something and everything like that. It was really a douse like typical in me being successful. Yeah that is a great story and Other interviews I've been doing this season. We invite the guests on, and we think they have a really interesting transformation. Story is kind of like who I've been really Trying to get on the show this season and every single person that I've interviewed so far and there's been you know. Handful have all. Had this like really awesome Lake County. Component to their story and men like Kinda. Showing how supportive the tech community is in in various ways, and it sounds like you found that you know through this. Through connections through other connections with more experienced people in the field that helped catapult you forward in the they were able to help support you in various ways and maybe help if you're stuck as you said, build your first project and I think that's really cool I. Think it's really good for beginners to hear that because I know when I first started out in probably you, too. I would imagine it can be really intimidating and feel like very overwhelming, and you can feel really alone, and it's like it's almost. I haven't experienced like trying to break into other industries, but in a lot of ways I feel like even though texts seemed really intense in really hard I mean it is, but there's just such kind and helpful people like a friend, totally random side story, but she's not intact. She was trying to break into. The entertainment like film like Moodley TV shows. and. She had to work at an unpaid internship for like a year in really like claw her way up. She actually does really awesome. producing on really awesome documentaries now but. It was like really hard, very competitive very very. Very like you know and I feel like the tech community is so different from that like it's. People are Super Helpful yeah definitely. I've heard that as well. I'm not sure if it's if it's like the demand in this industry that were like trying to get into maybe people, maybe a logical gotten to it, and they kind of see you know all the hard work that. It takes. I, guess that they want to help other people as well or like coming from something like my background and everything like that. They kind of want to help people as well, but yeah, I noticed that as well as a lot of really helpful people, even before I started going through the ups and everything I joined twitter, and that's when I found like just like a free code cannot co Newbie A. PODCAST are their Hashtag in general dislike just to get help and everything like that, and when I when I reached out that way, just random people that were professionals judgment like hey. I think I'll struggling with. Like centering Adib or CSS, something something kind of silly. You know I needed help with it and some random person was like. Hey, Gimme, your hub Repo albeit with that was like. Wow, some random person that realize but more Santander worked at Microsoft or something like that and are willing to help I didn't even know this person but yeah, definitely noticed that about the industry's is a lot of willing people to help you regardless. Of Your background and everything like that. Yeah another guest I. Literally just had on the podcast said that she had so many breakthroughs. A CAITLIN for people listening to the show and in episode Caitlin. She was talking about how she had so many breakthroughs on twitter asking for help in people that she didn't even know. Offering to help her in various capacities, I feel like twitter is such a good. Well, it's funny. Because social media like every platform kind of has its own. Little like corner or whatever it could be really good for certain things and I feel like asking for help. Like in that way. Twitter is awesome because people will jump in people. It's almost like a forum, but it's not, but people are very like. Communicate unlike you know instagram or something, which is mostly about the photos and it's. It's not the same kind of. Environment just different. Anyway, it's it's interesting. Yeah so switching gears a tiny bit I would like to hear about how the new ended up getting your first full-time real position. Yeah absolutely. So it was when our meet up grew so when I met this person a friend. His name is nate a probably. Give him recognition there because east been so huge in my in my career as a friend and generally slow parental today we kind of joined are meet ups and we grew into this big. Meet Up. And it was like three hundred people. We grew to over three hundred people, and then we. He had connections with someone that was really involved in trying to grow the tech scene in the Central Valley of California. Washable, probably think though in California. It's like tech everywhere. Tech is huge, but that's really isolated towards like Silicon Valley Bay area, and when you go to the outskirts where I live, it's like farms and orchards in just really like farmland in. The outskirts of all the techie over the hill and there's all the big central. Silicon Valley everything like that, but out here it's it's completely different. There's still a lot of factories out here and everything like that, so tech isn't the big thing out here, so he was trying to person. He tried to basically bring tech out this way like hey companies. There's a talent out here as well so he was a part of that big that this big movement. That's still going on today so anyways. We ended up getting a space with his help, and he supported he. He got funding for it and we moved our meet up there. And, we were able to go reach out to the computer. Science professors ask some of the community colleges. They are able to come out. We reached out to people that talk computer science in the high schools I reach people on facebook I went out trying to like introduce myself to all these people, so we can grow all his these groups that are people better in software or coating to hey, come to this, Mita because we can all grow with the tech in the valley, so we had this large event whereas kicking off are merging of our beat ups, and we had I think. Over one hundred fifty people like almost two hundred people from professors in computer science to high school teachers in computer science to people, learning and everything like that so I went up there and I was speaking in front of it, and I was basically motivating other people that were in my position like hey. You guys? Should really you know? I was trying to leaning towards free code camp like if you guys want to learn to cope because those people that were like thinking about it, you know not really that much into it, so I kind of wanted to focus on those people because that's where they had the experience of coming from so was like. Hey, you know it's not that hard to get into it. There's some really really great resources that are free. That doesn't cost anything you know. MEET UPS like this a lot of great connections here and people willing to help you. If you're struggling every twenty five solves talking. They're all that and at that. Meet up was a few other. That worked at companies nearby when Consulting Agency the the banks have some of their software people out in the Central Valley as well and a couple of of the people that were there were friends with my friend, nate, a one that have basically helped me out and everything that always connections. He introduced me to one of guys there and he said Hey his company's hiring. I want you. I want to introduce you to Michael and this is after all is kind of getting already getting. Getting experience with building some projects and everything and my friend was like. Yeah, he knows what he's doing now. He he's employable. He's definitely has experience with building front, and back and software and everything so introduced me to a friend of his name of Josh and he worked for a company that basically did consulting for like probations, law enforcement software. They did software for E N NJ Gallo, a lot of big companies, so they're really established there around for like twenty years so I met with him. And then he was like where we're actually looking for someone. More junior developer is like Amir number. We eventually had coffee. Just Kinda. Talk and everything like that and we just hit it off. We kind of our personalities. Kind of you know He. We liked hanging out and everything like that, so that kind of started like a friendship, you know. We talked for about a year and. And you'd help you with stuff like that and I was like. Hey, and he's like our company is kind of in the middle of Lake, you know hiring, but they kinda. Put a freeze on that everything like that, so after about a year when I. When I met him, he finally called me up one day, and the funny story is that I was getting to a point. In in learning how to Code and currently working where I was almost ready to give up, because it felt like I was putting effort and then. I wasn't getting any any reward from like. If I was applying everywhere and I wouldn't get any kind of response to resume. I reached out to people to help with resume all these things. Did I did a lot? Maybe not everything that could have just because I didn't know, but I felt like I was getting any hits on my resume or If I. DID GET A call. It was like you know I didn't know how to do some kind of algorithm that I didn't learn or memorize or whatever it was, so I was getting really discouraged, almost going to be like. Maybe I do need to go to school at unity at degree. Maybe I need to just join a boot camp or or joint something that is going to make me be more appealing to employers so I was looking. and. Just kind of getting really discouraged at that time. But the funny thing is that I got a call for my friend Josh and he goes. Hey, we have this contract coming up. We need to hire a developer and I've been talking to my boss about you and we'd like to bring you on. He's like. Of course we'll interview you and everything like that and he's like. Are you interested in? He's like. Like I'm almost one hundred percent, sure they've we bring you on because you know like I know you and I know your work, and I can help you and everything like that and I was like. Are you kidding me? And when he told me that I was thrilled, I was actually really scared. Same time this is reality is like real software coding. In, part of me was going to say no like I do this. This is too much like the difference between working on side projects that you know like whatever no one's really going to care about versus working on software that people use so I. I got really scared. I even once. My wife and I was like I. Don't know if I can do this like I'm GonNa. Quit my job and I go do this and then I fail. I can't go back to that job. I can't do that, you know. This is a big decision. You know I've been here for nine years or whatever it was. So ultimately, my my wife convinced me and was like you need to do this. People don't get good things unless they take some kind of risk. Regardless, you should try you know. So I call it my friend. I told him I concerns and Josh was like you know you're just trying to scare yourself out of. It Dude so just take it from me. I'm going to be there to help you, so don't worry us to take this. Just, take it you know and I was like. Okay, let's set up the interview and everything like that and goes all right, so set the interview and. They hired me. And that was basically it I started there with no professional experience. It was all because of someone was willing to help me know again back to that. You know this industry is always really helpful people that are willing to take a chance on you and help me help you and everything, and and and of course there's a lot of challenges you know working in in actually writing real software and everything like that, but in the long run it really helped me in was just huge into getting my job, and then after that first job. Of course, my resume after that just everyone always cared to look at it. You know I I didn't have nearly as. Much difficulty looking for next role after that I think it's like once you get your first job regardless of its junior level, or whatever in in this industry it kind of goes downhill OCTA that you actually get considered. You know you'll get your resume looked at. You'll get that first interview and everything like that. Yeah Wow, so. How long did you work there at the first job? And then what what kind? You don't have to get like super detailed, but like what kind of work redoing essentially. There year, so I started off working on a back end actually of in node framework, or on the no runtime. Basically, the contract was migrating some. It's funny because I went from like barely learning it in writing mostly front end to writing some back in code and the PRI, the contract was basically taking some old enterprise services that were written in Java and then rewriting them on no gs lambda, so that that was what I was doing for like the first four months and after that contract and they moved on to another. Another project and it was more full stack. It was job script. It was using angular on the front end no on the back end and some sequel server, but I got the rightful stack of front end back in using Java javascript note and everything like that. It was really fun. 'cause I got to work on two different big projects there and I learned so much. That's where my whole stack experience kind of took off I got I got to learn so much and the people that I worked with worse huge. It was just I can't even express how thankful I am to people that I work with there and I still am friends with them. That helped me explained things a broke things down. And having been able to understand these other languages. Yeah Wow and I know you recently got a laid off due to cove in nineteen. was that from this same employer or was this another job you had gotten after leaving that company? Another story so I was there at that company for about a year, and then towards the end my wife and I found out. We're GONNA. Have Child and so I needed to. That company was great for it was actually a bump in salary than I currently made up. My Company the light, Bulb Company, but it's I still needed to. I needed to progress I needed to move on and grow my career, and financially so I started to look I started. You know I even asked my boss at the time. I was like Hey I have a child, the ways or any chance that I can move up or anything like that, and you give me feedback, and it was like yeah, definitely, in whatever amount of time so I took that and say okay, that's CREPE. should start looking in see by even get my resume considered now that experience so I started to look, and then I got hired at a start up in the bay area and Silicon Valley. And I was there for almost a year way so i. don't want I. Don't want to interrupt you, but was at working remotely or you move there. I actually had hybrid role, so I would go into the office like an hour and a half commute two days a week. And then worked from home the other days, but yeah, it was a there. I got a taste of the whole silicon valley. Feel of how software companies ran, and my skills went up even higher because of that environment, but yeah, so I was there for about a year and It was a startup that wasn't able to get another round of funding, so actually we all. They started laying people off. fortunately they didn't lay the soccer team like right away, but since we found that out, we started to look all the engineers that worked at that company, or like Oh they're not getting. Funding is a good chance. They're gonNA lay people off, so we all started looking and I got hired at the Credit Union and I. was there for about a year? or about a year exactly actually, and due to the pandemic and everything like that they started to kind of restructure, reorganize everything and effected a lot of teams, including my own team and We're a part of that layoffs will. But yeah, it was. It was kind of something that I. Could. Imagine obviously has affected a lot of people everywhere, and it feels like it's just one of those times. That no-one can have planned for, but yeah. I've been a part of that have been affected by that as well. Yes, so justice like for myself in the listeners, so you basically had three different jobs like intech at this point in each for about a year. Give or take, so you essentially now have like three years of like fulltime software engineering experience. And the most recent position that you've got furloughed related offer a Is that a credit union? And what were you doing there so? It's interesting. 'cause you've such like different experience like from like like a consulting firm to a tech startup to credit union like I imagined that the experiences at each one were quite different like the environment of in the way people work in south. Absolutely so. Go working at a credit union, it's a pretty large credit union and the way things are done there as opposed to the other companies that I worked at. Worse it significantly different so look the startup that I worked at. They were pretty large. Start up there actually around for ten years they had employed over three hundred people. The engineering team was fifty engineers people and. They operated like they were a big tech company and everything like that, so but at the same time I had the experience of being able to shift. To project same time like there's times when I was working on a mobile APP and one for one sprint I'd be working on a whole two weeks on a mobile APP, and then I'd be pivoted to work on their web APP, clients. Front end code, and then after that I'd be working on some hardware code completely different working on a proprietary algorithm that needs to be converted in red on a mobile APP. It was different stuff all the time, and it was really exciting, but also really nerve wracking because of the context, switching a lot and learning new languages at the same time. So that was I learned a lot by lot of the fast paced stuff at that start up, and then when I got to the Credit Union. There was a little bit more relaxed because those only one product that I worked on essentially. Korb, inking APP and there I had a team of eight engineers that were dedicated for this core banking APP. I got brought on as a senior engineer there, and then that that role kind of pivoted towards a lead developer. I was on that project for about four months. And then my a boss. Promoted to the lead developer of that team so essentially there was a lot different roles because for one it was one project, and it was a mobile APP. I had experience with mobile APP at the other company, but not to this extent, it was just a huge mobile APP. And the primary, the primary objective being handling with people's money was probably a significant factor to the change of of like a importance of the application that part probably. At a lot to the stress when I worked knowing that you're working on something that deals with people's money and five hundred thousand active members so that was a big learning experience. And I do. I learned a lot of new stuff learned new languages learned how to do a lot of things that you wouldn't typically do web development, but yeah, it was a lot of differences in structure, probably a lot of different departments that you have to work with before you can get approval in changing something like maybe typically and. Change some piece of code that would maybe look slightly different, because it just makes more sense while at the Credit Union. It wasn't that simple. You had to get a lot of approvals and a lot of test. Writing to make sure lingers securer in a rented to different avenues. You know which was different. Yeah, that yeah makes dealing with financial information. You know sensitive data, and all that would be quite different. I imagined so now that your you by the time episode airs, you could already be in a new job, but. Being active in your job search now. What kind of company aiming to work out? What do you want to stay in like? The financial industry are trying to go back to a startup or maybe a consulting firm that you get to work all these different projects. Yeah, what were you? What did you like the most I guess? Let's see. Probably a ideally would wouldn't stay in the financial industry just because. All the little differences in how delayed development can be due to all those hoops. You have to jump through, but probably most fun I had was. Working in consulting agency. Because working so many different things. Different projects everything like that, but a lot of them had their own pros and cons. You know in terms of like. What I would prefer probably something that is more established due to. More stability just because of everything. That's going on right now. I've heard a lot of people have lost their jobs regardless of the industry even in software I would probably prefer stability. If I could choose regardless of the industry but Yeah. It's probably it's probably more geared towards that. You know what I can find that it is more stable and everything like that. I do have a few other avenues in alert. You know companies that I'm going through right now so I am confident that something will end soon. That's probably the good part is that they're still a high demand for software engineers and everything like that, so there's a lot of good a good places that are hiring right now and everything like that. But. They do specific Yeah Yeah Gotcha so I'm. Kind of jumping around here, but I really wanted to ask this question, and it goes back to your glassblowing experience. I was wondering if there was anything from that or your position before a Jumba juice that you. Were able to transfer or in some way to you in your job, your new job as a software developer. Probably the thing that. I don't know if it helped me, but there's a few different things probably so working probably in an environment that required me to have a lot of perseverance, probably aided to my benefit, and in general and just work ethic. It helps me To be able to deal with probably stresses and deadlines Challenges in my current role because I dealt with that a lot on any. Of can can relate to that. Is You know working in a place like that or just any kind of work that requires them to give a little bit extra is required, just laken. Succeed or do well their job. It probably just helps helped with those areas in work ethic to work hard enduro ally and everything like that but also know what I want going forward, and what I don't want in a career or or next role. Also of a big part of that. Working at that company helped me in was. Probably having difficult conversations with my employer I had a lot of those at that company and it prepared me to be able to deal with those difficult situations. A lot better at all night, other roles a and what I mean, my difficult situations, probably dealing with difficult people another one being having a conversation with your superiors about compensation You know asking for what you feel like. You deserve and everything like that I've had a lot of those, and they didn't go so well at that company that I feel really confident and know how to approach those types of people or Whenever those conversations need to happen, you know. It can be difficult for a lot of people, but I think have so much experience with it that it's. It's kind of more fluid and how to do in the right way. It's aided a lot in that in in my career going forward. Yeah that makes sense and like. I, I can only imagine like the stressors you deal with being in an environment with the glassblowing like Super Hot. You said you were sent home from heat exhaustion, the stress like literally the physical danger bringing yourself. It's like working from home as a software engineer or star office in Silicon. Valley is like the stress level would be so much less like the. They compare Cinderella the stressors you're dealing with compared to maybe like the ones at the other place. Yeah, like whole other scar accord whole other thing, right? We are like running at time and there's one last question I want to ask before we wrap this out and it's just if you could share any like final advice to people listening right now. Who are just starting out? Maybe they were where you were like. You know four or five years ago. Whenever whenever you got your start. What advice would you give them? All. Let's see so I. Think for one perseverence when things feel like it's difficult, it may be difficult at first, but the more and more you do it in the more and more you practice. You'll eventually understand it some complicated things that I. That I could not have imagined when I first started of doing I'm able to thoroughly explain. They seem like almost simple. Now I think the more and more you do it. The the more natural feel, and it'll be really simple. Just just keep on doing it and things easier. also in your journey and learning. It's really important to try to reach out to people to make connections go to meet UPS ask questions. Because those are going to be the areas where where you're gonNA find a connection that can help you find that career and ultimately successful in in this career field. But those are probably the two biggest ones is. Now I know it's hard at first, but it gets easier, and it gets fun on the challenges they start to face. Get really exciting, and it's really rewarding. Ultimately you know all hard work will pay off as long as you just keep to it. And it will pay off so yeah, awesome, great advice in a great way to end this interview. Thank you so much again for coming on. Where can people find you online? Yeah absolutely. Probably a mitre twitter, a twitter handle is mit p. j are eight eight. Or my website is just a my name, my first name Michael or implemental. Dial my personal, Mitchell my last name.
