The Irish football team: a consistent source of disappointment, or a consistently bracing source of perspective on life? Ken and Murph disagree, just as they disagree on many things about the game. 

One thing they do agree on is that in international football, a superhero isn't necessary, but as Wales and Norway demonstrate, it sure helps. 

Richie Sadlier and Gavin Cooney join us to analyse what happened in Yerevan. Why can't we create chances? For all the supposed improvement are there any signs of the development of real confidence? Is there anything to be said for another system change?

Plus there's wild talk of "creativity", "passing triangles" and the need for "De Bruyne crosses".

Ep 2352: No Goals, No Wins And No Excuses For The Irish Football Team - 06/06/22

Nicole, 63 ans, est une des rares femmes pêcheuse de crevettes à Dunkerque. Ancienne ouvrière du textile et mère de six enfants, elle trouve dans cette pratique réservée aux hommes une échappatoire, un moment de paix. L'eau soigne son corps abîmé par le travail en usine, les maternités et le travail domestique. Nicole est aussi championne du monde de décorticage de crevettes ! Elle raconte qu'elle a pu gagner 10 fois ce concours grâce au travail en usine, qui lui a fait exercer sa rapidité et sa dextérité. Les médias soudain parlent d'elle. Nicole se voit reconnue hors du cercle domestique. Une récompense ? Une revanche ? Un plaisir ?
Au-delà de l'image folklorique de la pêche à la crevette, cet épisode d'Un podcast à soi / Une vie à soi interroge le rapport au temps, au travail domestique, à la reconnaissance. Et donne à entendre des résistances invisibles.

Rana Eid est sound designer et réalisatrice. Depuis près 40 ans, elle enregistre les ambiances de Beyrouth, sa ville natale. Elle enregistre donc les sons de la guerre civile (1975-1990), la reconstruction, la guerre de 2006, la révolution civile de 2019, l’explosion du port le 4 août 2020 et enfin l’effondrement actuel du Liban. Aujourd'hui, elle commente ses propres archives sonores qui racontent son pays meurtri et une ville qui retient son souffle. Marine Vlahovic (Carnets de correspondante) a rencontré Rana Eid une première fois en 2014 avant de la retrouver quelques années plus tard. Un manifeste sensible sur l’importance du son dans nos mémoires. 

Ce documentaire est lauréat de l'appel à projets 2021 du ministère de la Culture.

In this episode of the O’Reilly Programming Podcast, I talk with Jim Blandy and Jason Orendorff, both of Mozilla, where Blandy works on Firefox’s web developer tools and Orendorff is the module owner of Firefox’s JavaScript engine. They are the authors of the new O’Reilly book "Progamming Rust."

They called the fight “Bad Blood.” It was a marketing angle that wrote itself. In 2002, Oscar De La Hoya and Fernando Vargas met in a clash of Mexican-American U.S. Olympians from southern California, bringing the two biggest draws at 154 pounds together for a monster pay-per-view event that was powered by a bitter grudge.

In a special edition of the HBO Boxing Podcast, Eric Raskin speaks to De La Hoya, Vargas, and numerous insiders who were at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas that night and lets them tell the story of a modern classic, a showdown in which scores were settled and blood was spilled.

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.
