On this episode of "Speaking of Bitcoin", join hosts Adam B. Levine, Andreas M. Antonopoulos, Stephanie Murphy and Jonathan Mohan for a discussion about loans in the world of crypto.
HODL. It's crypto-land philosophy for not selling your preferred token even when things look their most bleak. But where philosophy intersects with real-world concerns like shelter, food and the niceties of life, tactics have emerged offering both opportunities and risks. From smart contracts to bitcoin collateralized mortgages, the hosts discuss their experiences with loans in the world of crypto.

I'M GLAD MY MOM DIED Audiobook Excerpt

Liebe Hörerinnen und Hörer,

gestartet sind Jochen Gebauer und Dom Schott mit der gleichen, heiligen Mission: Einen treuen Kult errichten und vier böse Gottheiten vom Thron stoßen, das erklärte Ziel von Cult of the Lamb. Die Wege aber, die die beiden dafür einschlugen, hätten unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Und so kommt das Duo nach vielen Stunden wieder zusammen, um über das große Kot-Müsli-Fiasko, Opferrituale, unheilige Festessen, Hamsterräder und süchtig machende Arbeitsroutinen zu sprechen - und ihren Kultführungsstil miteinander zu vergleichen.

Viel Spaß!
Dom & Jochen

Daredevil Season 2 is almost upon us and that means a new iteration of The Punisher, one of the most mangled and misrepresented characters in Marvel cinematic history! To help us wade through Frank Castle's movie graveyard, Lon Strickland comes on the show to argue that Dolph Lundgren's 1989 version is the best so far! Beyond that, we talk about Spider-Man dropping in on the 'Captain America: Civil War' trailer, the state of animation in the USA and what it was like for Lon to work at Machinima during their heyday!

In this episode, I sit down with Brad Knox, founder and CEO of Emoters, a startup building a product called bots_alive—animal-like robots that have a strong illusion of life. We chat about the approach the company is taking, why robots or agents that pass themselves off as human without any transparency should be illegal, and some challenges and applications of reinforcement learning and interactive machine learning.

This week we're featuring a conversation from earlier this year—O'Reilly's Mary Treseler chats with Giles Colborne, managing director of cxpartners. They talk about the transformative effects of AI on design, designing for natural language interactions, and why designers need to nurture the ability to reinvent themselves.

On this week's episode of the Radar Podcast, O'Reilly's Mac Slocum chats with award-winning author Pagan Kennedy about the art and science of serendipity—how people find, invent, and see opportunities nobody else sees, and why serendipity is actually a skill rather than just dumb luck.

This week, I sit down with David Beyer, an investor with Amplify Partners. We talk about machine learning and artificial intelligence, the challenges he’s seeing in AI adoption, and what he thinks is missing from the AI conversation.

AI Adoption at the Atomic Level of Jobs and Work

In this episode of the Data Show, I spoke with Reza Zadeh, adjunct professor at Stanford University, co-organizer of ScaledML, and co-founder of Matroid, a startup focused on commercial applications of deep learning and computer vision. Zadeh also is the co-author of the forthcoming book TensorFlow for Deep Learning (now in early release). Our conversation took place on the eve of the recent ScaledML conference, and much of our conversation was focused on practical and real-world strategies for scaling machine learning. In particular, we spoke about the rise of deep learning, hardware/software interfaces for machine learning, and the many commercial applications of computer vision.

Scaling Machine Learning

Le sommier qui grince. Les cris et gémissements de la porte à-côté. Le plafond qui menace de s'écrouler. Pourquoi la vie sexuelle de nos voisins est-elle aussi envahissante ? Comment une activité privée finit-elle par devenir publique ? Ils prennent du Viagra ou des amphétamines ? Et surtout : est-ce que par hasard... on n'aimerait pas entendre - et écouter - nos voisins ?

Guess Who

O'Reilly Media spreads the knowledge of innovators. At O’Reilly, a big part of our business is paying attention to what’s new and interesting in the world of technology. We have a pretty good record at having anticipated some of the big technology developments in recent history. For instance, we launched the first commercial Web site, GNN, in 1993; we organized the meeting at which the term “open source” was first adopted; we were early investors in Blogger, which helped launch the blogging revolution; and more recently, our Web 2.0 conference launched a world-wide meme. We call this predictive sense the “O’Reilly Radar.” And while we’re certainly not always right, we are, at least, good at making interesting guesses.

Our methodology is simple: we draw from the wisdom of the alpha geeks in our midst, paying attention to what’s interesting to them, amplifying these weak signals, and seeing where they fit into the innovation ecology. Add to that the original research conducted by our Research team, and you start to get a good picture of what the technology world is thinking about.
