Sinossi

The practice of dumpster diving has roots that trace back to the mid-20th century, emerging as a response to consumerism and waste culture. Initially, it was seen as a necessity for those facing economic hardship, where searching through commercial refuse became a means of survival. As urban centers expanded and consumer goods became increasingly disposable, more individuals began to take to the streets, scavenging for items that were still usable or edible. The act of diving into dumpsters transformed from a mere survival tactic into a subculture, with various communities forming around the shared experience of finding value in discarded materials.

    “Humanoid Robots & Drones: How the Age of Smart Machines Will Revolutionize Our World” is a 24‑lecture audio expedition for anyone who likes their wonder with measurements. We chase robots, humanoids, and drones through restaurants, farms, warehouses, hospitals, disaster scenes, stadiums, and city skies—treating each as a solvable puzzle. How does a drone hold position in wind? Why does a humanoid’s shape matter for doors and stairs? When does a non‑humanoid robot beat a humanoid? More often than you’d guess.
     
    You’ll learn the working grammar of the field: motors, cameras, lidar, batteries, and the ugly truth about friction, glare, and radio noise. You’ll see how a drone’s navigation, thermal views, and geofences turn into defect lists, not pretty video; how warehouse robots schedule intersections; why “stop distance” and “payload versus endurance” make or break a plan; and how soft‑skinned humanoids handle the “last ten centimeters” that buildings were designed for human hands. We translate regulation and risk into simple playbooks you can actually use—what the rules permit, what insurers demand, and what keeps neighbors calm.
     
    Expect case studies with receipts: drone light shows that replace fireworks with quiet pixels; roof and bridge inspections before breakfast; farm rigs that spray where plants actually are; hospital runners and delivery bots that save steps and shoulders; telepresence poles and companion robots that help real people on real Tuesdays. The tone is sharp, funny, and unromantic: we puncture hype, celebrate craft, and name failure modes out loud.
     
    By the end, you’ll be able to read a spec sheet like a mechanic, design a credible first deployment, and argue—politely but mercilessly—about the next 10, 25, and 50 years. If you want an operator’s guide to the robots, humanoids, and drones that already work (and the ones that almost do), buckle in. The robots are clocked in, the drones are charged, and class is wheels‑up.

    At the Table - The Chef's Guide...

    When Katherine Miller was first asked to train chefs to be advocates, she thought the idea was ludicrous. But she quickly learned that chefs and other leaders in the restaurant industry are some of the most powerful forces for change in our troubled food system. Chefs are leading hunger relief efforts, supporting local farmers, fighting food waste, confronting racism and sexism in the industry, and much more. 
     
     
     
    In At the Table, Miller shares the essential techniques she developed for the James Beard Foundation's Chefs Boot Camp for Policy and Change. Listeners will learn how to focus their philanthropic efforts; pinpoint their audience and develop their argument; recruit allies and support action; and maybe most importantly, grab people's attention in a crowded media landscape. 
     
     
     
    Miller also shares the moving stories of chefs who used these skills to create lasting change. Chefs from around the country pushed Congress to provide financial relief to the restaurant industry at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. 
     
     
     
    At the Table is filled with inspiration for anyone who has ever wanted to make a difference outside the four walls of their restaurant.

    Euthyphro is a classic text written by Plato that deals with the exploration of piety and justice. Through this work, Plato seeks to provide an answer for the question of what constitutes a just action and how one should evaluate actions that are considered pious or holy. In order to address this query, Plato utilizes his signature Socratic dialogue format in order to engage Euthyphro in a philosophical discussion about piety and its implications for moral behavior. Read in English, unabridged.
