Watch creative people work with both feet

0:02

and meters. The answer to that at

0:04

the end the show. My name's Tom

0:06

Scott and this is lateral. If

0:15

you're looking for a podcast that's as which he

0:17

is that he's informative, you've come to the right

0:19

place. If you're looking for the washroom stone the

0:22

Colorado vote on the left. Hoping to show a

0:24

clean pair of hands today we have to new

0:26

players and one returning one. I'm going to start

0:28

with a new player join us for the first

0:30

time. I don't have described you other than the

0:33

internet's favorite blacksmith. I like steel. Hello!

0:36

That that works fine for me. I'll take

0:38

that. And

0:40

what I love is there was a little

0:42

bit of authentic shop. I call on your

0:44

microphone Here you are in your workshop having

0:46

just made stuff presumably. Yes, I'm

0:49

in the middle of making a a steam

0:51

power hammer. a miniature version of that thing.

0:53

That's that's that's quite fun. I'm in the

0:55

middle of doing that. as we speak, it's

0:58

over there. Are power hammer is

1:00

one of those things that. Is just

1:02

a giant whacking press? The repeatedly hit

1:04

something over and over right? Yes, Absolutely

1:06

Absolutely. Except I'm making ones about kind

1:09

of eight inches tall. Are

1:12

you going to use the tiny power? How much to

1:14

make a tiny apart from a better outlook on thought?

1:17

That. That would be quite fantastic. I want

1:19

to how small I could go. I definitely

1:21

want to try and heat up a little

1:23

bit of wire and and forged maybe little

1:25

forge something underneath it. That has to happen.

1:28

While. Very best of luck on the

1:30

shows day. Also join us for the

1:32

first time Climate scientist. I don't know

1:34

what to introduce you as these days

1:36

because partly you are talking means that

1:39

about climate. And then I also saw

1:41

you hosting Jogs cast Jingle Jam Who

1:43

Wants To Be A Millionaire? Who Wants

1:45

Three Millionaire parody about Jaffa Cakes? There's

1:47

just a lot going on with you

1:50

Simon, How you doing? Oh I'm right.

1:52

there is a lot going on. My

1:54

feel every single one of those things.

1:56

Right now I fit for cancer. Explicitly

1:58

as I became a dad. That long ago

2:00

I am running on very little sleeps if

2:03

I know Today That is exactly why I'm

2:05

leaving on that crosshairs. No winner or loser

2:07

in the show. There are no points are

2:09

other than bragging rights since since your own

2:12

self posts songs given you have plenty of

2:14

other things to judged. not by sign I

2:16

think you'll be I guess authored just returning

2:18

to the show for Ruff class. Been quite

2:21

a few episodes now. Think Roman Alice from

2:23

the Queer Movie podcast for Own You Tube

2:25

Channel. Welcome back How you doing I'm. Soon

2:28

grades are excited to have an

2:30

impact on you know, tired Dodd

2:32

on size say that and as

2:34

a little bit of a chance

2:36

that I might seem vaguely small

2:39

in front of people who seem

2:41

to be very close to function

2:43

as field of expertise of is.

2:45

Hop as wasn't them to the

2:48

self deprecating special everyone uses a

2:50

know laptop. That's what ensued Was

2:52

you all? This is the eighty

2:54

Seventh, so we've recorded. eighty seven

2:56

is an unlucky number in Australia.

2:58

boxes thirteen away from hundred, but

3:01

nothing will go wrong today. Nothing.

3:05

And with.sword of Damocles hanging over our heads

3:07

as tips and nervous like into question one.

3:10

In. It's early days. Why did

3:12

Amazon's computer systems repeatedly odin

3:14

nine puppies of a book about

3:16

lightens. Significance. And it's

3:19

early days. White Amazon's computer systems

3:21

repeatedly order nine copies of a

3:23

book about like. How

3:26

we spending lightens, which kind of like him.

3:28

I didn't know that was more than one. Kind of like

3:30

him as was kind of like him. As

3:33

the wilson is upon. Us the

3:35

Wolf assuming that that's how they're both pronounced. like

3:37

and like. In other words, The Wells. But

3:39

like Anthropic I've never heard about but

3:41

several people here happen for spectrometers picks

3:44

in college but I thought I'd I'd

3:46

say more. Fun Six and Knowledge ask.

3:49

Me that he's a cool A sale on the

3:51

Live on the podcast. A

3:54

success! It's. Okay so

3:56

could be the licensing or it could be the

3:58

nine saying he says desperate try to pull the

4:01

car back on the right us is like than

4:03

the plant like that that them a mosque type.

4:06

Plant. Just cities he

4:08

was you have the correct kind of like

4:10

and for this question Okay good. I wouldn't

4:13

normally clarify that so early on but I

4:15

feel like I want to steer away from

4:17

know Was. Away for the while Success

4:20

I guess is it's why so

4:22

is it? Something to do is

4:24

like. It in general

4:26

like a ordering something might be sued

4:28

Testing like making sure that something's working

4:30

properly. Kind of like had little tester

4:32

order. So I guess the question is

4:34

the exact he said. Simon is the

4:36

like an important it's the nine copies

4:38

in Poland or a both of those

4:40

together. What matters On Also, I mean this

4:42

is ernie Amazon right? So it is No.

4:44

Can be Something like machine learning that's been

4:46

trained on a date, set on is overeating

4:49

based on something. There's gotta be a human

4:51

input here. I'm. Guessing. Unless.

4:55

Is the book of a particular physical dimension that

4:57

was useful to Amazon in the early days. My.

5:00

With a using the book to hold doors

5:02

open in their office or something like that.

5:04

The. Same exact dimensions as a certain

5:07

bit of hard drives, a force packing.

5:09

What if a tax packages with the

5:11

book because it was the right size.

5:13

Does the word moss have anything to

5:16

do with computers or data storage? Moss

5:18

Ammo. As as does that mean some

5:20

things were like. Moss.

5:24

All. About moths and the computer. Get

5:26

where we need more of these Mosques.

5:28

Things I can think of: Bias. On.

5:31

Think of our Cesr open source software.

5:33

I don't think most hobby is inevitably

5:35

will be some computer algorithm because you

5:37

takes like any four letters a workout

5:39

or something. but in this case that's

5:41

not the canucks. Maybe. Someone

5:44

who works for the company wrote this that

5:46

I'm It's like I wanna try and make

5:48

sure that my birth is in effect on

5:50

like he is in the Mons. The people

5:52

know about it. I'm going to push up

5:54

to the best seller list. People have

5:56

been manipulating the best seller list from the very

5:58

beginning. For. The. Very stop got

6:01

isn't the reason behind it rohan

6:03

but you are getting closer than

6:05

with thinking about stock. I.

6:08

Seem to him you have a bit

6:10

of background with publishing here. Yeah, Yes,

6:13

That's the end of that. The authentic long as I.

6:15

Say it does not as I give many ideas

6:18

know it has not. What What if they

6:20

constantly sold nine copies of it? If

6:23

they've always been bought out by non copies

6:25

they would immediately restock say with are the

6:28

reason the any an institution might buy nine

6:30

copies of a book about Moss. Did

6:32

it say in the question how often the. It

6:34

was being we stop so being they signed

6:37

copies of being responsible. The question

6:39

says the computer systems work repeatedly ordering nine

6:41

copies. I think the nine thing is gonna

6:43

be important are the fact that it's one

6:45

over a power of eight tells me the

6:47

that's a it's a must send prime own.

6:50

I love that you went with the former

6:52

thing that but it's not important but it's

6:54

one more than a pair of to. It.

6:57

Is important that it's one less

6:59

than ten. Okay,

7:01

so computer systems care about positive the fact

7:04

that it's less than ten mins. This gotta

7:06

be a human thing, right? Yes,

7:09

Was it's a level out of a stack of

7:11

books or something? Not

7:14

quite or at low can sit

7:16

on a shelf. The books are

7:18

being ordered. But. That's

7:20

all the questions saying. The not being

7:23

assertive businesses and this is the early days

7:25

of Amazon. Cannot. Win something much at

7:27

all with moment. Oh I did

7:29

not like I and I just know that

7:31

it's gonna be so I like it comes

7:33

to the tell us when he was like

7:35

i thought cool cellphone it was a city

7:37

to the so many elements of this questions.

7:40

That could be ample and could be

7:42

some to do with testing the delivery

7:44

times to see how long their orders

7:47

are taking to ship. Because are we

7:49

not have this kind of slightly. We.

7:52

Got this relatively know, but it's not been delivered

7:54

so it's not about how long it takes to

7:56

get access. Not been delivered like so what if

7:58

somebody was to order? One object when

8:01

amazon. And. Then the computer computer would

8:03

add on nine other items to make it

8:05

up to ten items. For some reason, there

8:07

was a problem. The bike powers attend a

8:09

number of items being ordered. All. Apart.

8:12

From the last, but he right someone's ordering one

8:14

thing on Amazon. The computer systems

8:16

Adding nine copies of a book about

8:18

like and. And. Then passing the order

8:20

on. Why? Is it doing That

8:23

is the one thing that they order. Happen to also

8:25

be a book about like and. Ah,

8:28

they could have been a book

8:30

about anything. Was

8:32

it the first book in their system? It's.

8:35

A work around. Amazon.

8:38

Can't afford their houses at this point. I'm.

8:40

Of the hasn't really got anything that by you just

8:42

taking orders in the public and sending them on to

8:44

publishes. Is. It a publishers will

8:47

only ship a certain amount of fix out

8:49

like a pilot has like a certain amount

8:51

in and says that we also to think

8:53

of I know that like with with the

8:55

way that books or doing lacks in publishing

8:57

a traditional publishing it's that's a book Shuttle

8:59

order a certain amount and they can also

9:01

returned the books are. They haven't sold in

9:03

a lot of cases, but the idea is

9:05

that they couldn't predict how many or so

9:07

they'll send either, but it's unusual for them

9:10

to send like one. Copy of a

9:12

book? Guess that's it. The big

9:14

book companies would not fulfill an

9:16

order for one book because that's

9:18

of retail customer. So Amazon added

9:21

nine copies of a book they

9:23

knew would be out of print

9:25

and unavailable to the order. Ah,

9:29

Yes, the first phase or society

9:31

I think that's so I mean

9:33

soon. So the response was oh

9:35

yes his the books you order

9:37

we couldn't fulfill the other nine

9:39

sorry but you still get it

9:41

at the wholesale price, not the

9:43

retail price. Costs are really hope

9:45

the guy that wrote that book.

9:47

Was. Not alive at that point to

9:49

just have his heart crossed when he

9:52

realized off our loves. It isn't that

9:54

people really are so keen about my

9:56

book about like and this is just

9:58

around minute quantities. Ha!

10:02

Ha I guess have broad question along with

10:04

them either. Know the questions. I definitely don't

10:06

know the answers. Will start date with Alec

10:09

whenever you're ready. Or write this question

10:11

has been sent in by see row. The.

10:14

Jacksonville Jaguars Nfl team spent a

10:16

hundred and twenty million dollars on

10:18

then you practice facility. That.

10:21

Locker rooms included innovative

10:23

sensors that control traffic

10:25

signal style lights. What

10:28

did the sensors detect? And.

10:30

I'll read it again. The Jacksonville Jaguars

10:32

Nfl team spent one hundred and

10:34

twenty million dollars on then you

10:36

practice facility. That. Locker

10:39

rooms included innovative senses

10:41

the control traffic signal

10:43

style lights. What? Did

10:45

the sensors detect? The.

10:47

Only the Kanto for the Jacksonville drug use

10:50

is the her punchline for not being a

10:52

good at Her faculty into the I Saw

10:54

Them Live Once I saw Them at Wembley

10:56

and Is Them versus The Niners and they

10:59

scored a touchdown and there was so surprised

11:01

that they had scored a touchdown. but they

11:03

have people around sort of puppets spelling jag

11:05

you as but they came out in the

11:08

wrong. say said pursue Ruff as effective as

11:10

they run across Wembley a happy and. All.

11:13

We got an Nfl question for an old British

11:15

Pamela's while I were old for nine know jag

11:18

you are instead of Jaguar on it's going to

11:20

annoy so many and if I. Saw

11:24

through the traffic lights response you how

11:26

smelly their socks with I think I'm

11:28

allowed to say know. That

11:31

we're off to talk about this for wireless

11:34

is hop for should not have an overweight

11:36

or just runs. Wouldn't run through some things

11:38

Nfl things might like. I must be changed

11:40

The Sox every single game anyway.feel. seats because

11:42

people have lucky Sox right? People might not

11:44

want to change their socks. The

11:46

maybe they should if this team is the unlucky.

11:49

I. Just feel the have like a hundred and

11:51

twenty million dollar practice facility. see don't we just

11:53

to worry about the additional costs for parents are

11:55

probably have all the lucky sox you want in

11:58

the world. This is a sneer. The

12:00

traffic light system i'm assuming the element of

12:03

that have a guy system is like stop

12:05

go. Pause. Dot.

12:08

Dot sort of were looking for something that people

12:10

might wanna. Be. Waiting

12:12

for in order for them to be allowed to

12:14

do something or they have to stop doing something.

12:16

Or to be one of my parking systems

12:18

the half in fancy car parks now where

12:21

you can look up and see what green

12:23

lights were with as a parking space and

12:25

stuff that is showers available on lock or

12:27

is available but. It's the jaguars

12:29

but the not going to ruin is getting

12:31

closer. Of with with that there

12:33

is that there is some information that

12:35

is useful. Based.

12:37

On the traffic lights of if you're in a

12:40

changing room Would he need to know. You've

12:42

got. You can change your clothes, you can take a

12:44

shower, The. Can be capacity for

12:46

room. If

12:49

of American Football. so. As.

12:51

An explicit could be injury related.

12:54

Dot like that's what we go

12:56

to for American football's clothing out

12:59

of injuries genuinely. The amount of

13:01

like head injuries and American support could have

13:03

been like just a test. Their like not

13:05

like can I have a colorblind are they

13:07

looking up to they understand the lights? it's

13:09

if not you can get into that doctor

13:11

a real quick I have I feel like

13:13

a comedy. It's a bit cheating asking Esau

13:15

do that thing where I just say it

13:17

a quest singly to the cloud. Is.

13:20

It something that is he is in the

13:22

La creme bits. It's something that will be

13:24

used during like actual games. or is it

13:26

something that's he's steering. I'm like practice is

13:28

all while people are changing. Offer came as

13:30

soon as I didn't know there would be

13:32

a difference or like different things happening the

13:34

La creme because of as he they can

13:36

come back in half top of time. And.

13:39

The guts of for both arms or

13:41

thoughts on that. Or he could be

13:43

like author is done or it could be

13:46

a warning for anyone elses. isn't the have

13:48

that you know forty extremely bulky football players

13:50

are about to all russification? Maybe you don't

13:52

want to be standing next to this door

13:54

hard sell? It's not that Tom but. It

13:57

could be used. At. Any.

14:00

The plan might choose to use

14:02

it's probably not during the game,

14:04

but. You. Know whenever they are going

14:06

to the locker room. I

14:08

target I can't serve as a stupid on his it's to

14:10

be toilets. It is. I

14:16

love when someone starts with this: Is

14:18

it some busy stupid but is it

14:20

a lot? Yes, yes it is. That's

14:22

how the show. Why we liked how

14:24

recently a cubicle has been occupied. It

14:27

is not. A. Ha That

14:29

will be hilarious. That

14:31

would resent ritual temperature of the

14:33

toilet seat. Unfortunately not. I

14:36

would know that as much as what's the

14:39

what's the pressure on the beat it doesn't

14:41

matter of fact that level of toilet roll

14:43

yellow for terms of is not much left.

14:46

With these questions, it's always a bunch

14:48

of inside, and it's is the question

14:50

of what is rather than particularly so.

14:52

It's like the for us it's figuring out

14:55

is is the thing that specific to like

14:57

the plan is to the jackson foods we

14:59

do is to always it like this could

15:01

be a system that you could do that

15:03

any twin and the world. Oh Simon's had

15:06

a realization. Jacksonville charges are in

15:08

Florida. Is

15:10

it to do with allegations?

15:12

Oh. Is it like

15:14

one alligator? Yellow light into time.scope of

15:16

a normal amount of alligator. We can

15:19

deal with our databases. Florida are among

15:21

for the year of high end or

15:23

something out. Yeah. spine the fibers you

15:25

need to go. Why do you put.

15:27

Traffic. Lights icing on the toilet

15:30

cubicles like on the doors. To.

15:32

To whether it's. Occupies

15:34

or it's not in the

15:37

cubicle. In fact, outside on

15:39

a new so not on. A.

15:42

Toilet. Two. Minutes

15:44

Get Roman talks about whether the traffic lights might

15:46

give the players information about whether they. Said

15:48

go see a doctor. Well.

15:51

If the traffic light went red, You.

15:54

Should go see a doctor. says. Of

15:56

testing for something in urine. Yes, it is. Oh

15:59

is it. The drug testing. For.

16:01

Just want to help track or something like that.

16:03

It's just. A visa you

16:06

royals like? it's just testing

16:08

whether you hydration? maybe? That's

16:10

it. Oh my god I

16:13

saw saw this of us.

16:15

And so the senses were installed

16:18

in the bathrooms. your your rival

16:20

urinals. urinal. On. Stuck between

16:22

America and England. A

16:25

good idea to the same here and and

16:27

they would analyze the year and to see

16:30

if the player's worth hydrated. And.

16:32

They're all good. Good. You Green

16:34

Green lights. If you're many little bit

16:36

dehydrated, you should take on some fluids.

16:38

Yellow light. And if you get the

16:40

red lights it's time to go see

16:42

a doctor and and maybe get some

16:44

fluids put in you because you are

16:46

severely dehydrated. I feel like there's a

16:48

better come with charts you can use

16:50

for that. Confusing

16:52

color to choose. Who says the

16:55

iteration shot? If anything, it's perfect.

16:57

I'm more concerned about green and

16:59

red. Button on the

17:01

senses were installed in the bathrooms

17:03

urinals and they would analyze the

17:05

urine and detect how hydrated the

17:08

player's worth and give them the

17:10

information in green for good all

17:12

the way to read the severely

17:14

dehydrated and bad. And

17:17

next person has been sent in by

17:19

David. Terrific! Thank you David! Residents of

17:21

the small Canadian town of over know

17:24

petition for Famous Landmark to be relocated.

17:26

That made the Pan Am games and

17:28

twins fifteenth. The Landmark could have attracted

17:30

business but town after dismantling part of

17:33

it. Out. Of of

17:35

against residents of a small Canadian town

17:37

of over know petitioned for Famous Landmark

17:39

to be relocated that made for the

17:42

Pan Am games and twenty fifteenth from

17:44

unmarked could have attracted business of accounts

17:46

after dismantling part of it. I.

17:49

Don't is I'm allows all system but I just

17:52

wanted the time for Jason on it being dismantled.

17:54

I'm assuming we're talking about the monument and. Not

17:56

the small town, just part of a famous landmark

17:58

would have to be dismantled. Okay

18:01

to the twenty fifteen Pan Am

18:03

games. I'm. Not

18:05

a never heard about before. Planum is an

18:07

airline come out with such a short flight.

18:09

Pan American. So North and South America you

18:11

know, right? Okay, which is also what program

18:13

was short for the. Pan. American.

18:15

Yeah, they still in business. I should

18:18

have absolutely not. I've I've flown in

18:20

a while say they want. They were

18:22

the ones who famously sold tickets to

18:24

the moon. Just. Like a holding

18:26

amount the the pace like it being on

18:29

the waiting list when they inevitably have luna

18:31

flights available in future will the things he

18:33

doesn't have one.as a out of the reasons

18:35

yes. Yes, Would

18:38

they have to remove a part of

18:40

this? Important

18:44

structure that perhaps was not

18:47

canadian enough for them. And.

18:49

They wanted to make it. Only

18:51

a Canadian landmark by removing

18:53

the American part of the

18:55

landmark. This was

18:57

definitely a Canadian landmark. It was already

18:59

that a what you do didn't have

19:01

to modify anything to make it a Canadian

19:04

land on gusto. Now. I'm

19:06

like do I know any Canadian?

19:08

Landmark also.

19:11

The fact the just because a small town

19:13

as petition for something slinky doesn't mean that

19:15

this us be a realistic thing for the

19:17

small town to be able to actually get

19:19

small towns competition for all kinds of weird

19:21

stuff so it's not even like our own.

19:23

What is not is doable and like that

19:25

was the Eiffel Tower. If they wanted to

19:27

they can petition for it. doesn't mean they

19:29

going to get it. Over. Know the

19:31

fact that the cold aura knows. gotta be important though,

19:33

right? my fellow? the name is gonna be. Like.

19:37

What he took less as off at must

19:40

have signed with it spell or and with

19:42

it a big rhinoceros. Oh

19:45

Rhino before Big Oreo.

19:47

I'm like a pen. Can I figure it out? Honestly,

19:50

I think you could. Or.however I

19:53

realize I said that's the open for

19:55

hims you for the pens and paper

19:57

Not just read all the episodes. I

20:00

have it in Los hang on weight so if is

20:02

I who as it's how it. Sounds.

20:04

Like it's oh and oh

20:07

is that right or different

20:09

spelling.is right okay. New

20:11

rule was can be so. I'm

20:14

trying to think of same famous signs. Hollywood

20:17

sign doesn't work. The

20:20

like? Well couldn't to. Kind

20:23

of signs. Or it's

20:25

Canadian of her ice hockey.

20:28

Maple Syrup. Maple. Syrup. Or

20:30

is Canadian Toronto Rowan? You've

20:32

got it. Oh, There.

20:34

Was a giant Instagram who

20:36

fine just saying the word

20:39

toronto. Set. Up in

20:41

Toronto. Or

20:43

it's for the twenty fifteen guys. If you've ever been to

20:45

the central Toronto on like done the tourist trail. It's

20:48

a massive massive. It's like several

20:50

meters high. Each letter. And

20:53

they decided that they were going to keep that

20:55

son will make a permanent both snobby to be

20:57

that. So. Aura know will like. Can.

21:00

We have the old one please. We

21:02

don't need to use. But. Can we have

21:04

the old one? Oh really. I last saw.

21:07

Did I get it? When I say got it I have a good.

21:09

At I did not get it. Oh

21:12

sir, are an eye on the

21:14

Isle of Man Tt get about

21:16

the less they walesa's. Rowan

21:20

over to use the next question. Founded

21:23

in twenty, Sustain One is the aim

21:25

of a group of volunteers called the

21:27

Women in Red. Nice snappy

21:29

one sounded in Twenty sixteen? What is

21:32

the aim? Of a group of volunteers

21:34

called The Women In Red. Is

21:36

anyone else immediate against Christie Berg? The

21:40

luggage even read I know by know it is

21:42

I can't give a lot of my head and

21:44

this is being asked. To. Three

21:46

men have a job. Is

21:50

a handmade tell reference? Who are?

21:52

Is there any other litres stuff

21:54

that we could. Go. With.

21:58

It's. Either that or Taylor Swift reference. It.

22:00

It Literary Road. Know.

22:03

What happened at Twenty fifty? a

22:05

pop in the pot? I'm guessing

22:07

that's very important. Yes, it's yeah.

22:10

If you had to describe this is an. Upbeat

22:13

thing or a. We

22:16

need to make this group of

22:19

volunteers because there a problem. Started

22:21

saying how would you describe it

22:23

like a whoop. This. Is really fun

22:25

or like our our we've got problems to solve. Alex,

22:28

you understand when you know what it is,

22:30

but that isn't really interesting and tricky thing

22:32

to answer and that they. Are holding

22:34

a process that there. Is like

22:37

there is also a sense of excitement

22:39

into a around what they're doing. When that

22:41

during at is it Christie book I'm just a double

22:43

check for. Some reason

22:45

as to whether the problem with Christopher. Nine

22:48

Am a bot. This twenty that seen

22:50

thing is interesting, so the twenty fifteen

22:52

in particular isn't important. But it is

22:55

may be interesting to note that this

22:57

role like this volunteer systems would not

22:59

has been even possible before. Two thousand

23:01

and one. Wikipedia. Was

23:03

founded in two thousand and one. Oh.

23:06

Oh. That from the the

23:08

with cats. Post. All

23:10

that know. that's the solution.

23:13

Deceit. It's all. That.

23:15

Fixing read links on wikipedia.

23:18

Bail. For specifically. Because.

23:21

Wikipedia articles about women. Were

23:23

much more likely to have a red link. Same

23:26

to be. Oscar wasn't crazy. Get to the fixing

23:28

them. Tommy or exactly correct.

23:31

To college bound to give with

23:33

a Cd I am at. yeah

23:35

no I was. I supposed. Facts

23:37

for two thousand and one assist.

23:39

I heard what he calls to

23:42

forecast about random wikipedia articles and

23:44

it was bang on. Buying

23:47

on while. Legos

23:49

yeah know you're exactly why. Is this is

23:51

essentially agree to provide missing biographies of women

23:54

on Wikipedia which is why on a cure

23:56

like is it bad? Is it good? I'm

23:58

like or technically it's not a good thing

24:00

but it is like an exciting something they

24:03

do when they volunteer in a way that

24:05

was a trick you into answer? I am.

24:07

So yeah it's essentially the Women In Read

24:10

or a collection of Wikipedia contributors to have

24:12

this aim. but I work together to improve

24:14

the coverage of women on the site, specifically

24:16

aiming to turn so called red links signifying

24:19

that those like missing articles. oh that's not

24:21

enough information into blue ones which have a

24:23

bunch of information populating it. hence the name

24:25

of the and Interestingly enough to typical yes

24:28

they aren't between twenty and thirty thousand. New

24:30

biographies of women to the site around

24:32

seventy a day. So very prolific.

24:36

Response from a folks come on. using.

24:39

A shops penny hurriedly rights for

24:41

number seven thousand, six hundred Ninety

24:43

two on a piece of plastic

24:45

and never referred to that number

24:47

ever again. What? Sort

24:50

of Europe's using a should be plenty.

24:52

Hardly right. The number seven thousand, six

24:54

hundred ninety two on a piece of

24:56

plastic A never opposed to that number

24:58

ever again. Why? If.

25:00

She's anything like me. She's just got a new

25:02

credit card says written down button system forget it

25:05

and a never use of the card. Sussex.

25:09

Don't. Do that folks with terrible security.

25:11

Don't write down your pin number. You

25:13

know what, Simon How you keep kind

25:15

of blundering very quickly towards the end

25:17

of the questions if is at this

25:19

hour, which ones that are You have

25:22

identified some of the elements of this.

25:24

Know. All of it. I'm not gonna give it to

25:26

you. Oh okay. Thank God You're right. that's a piece

25:28

of plastic. Oh I was going in

25:30

a totally different directions. I thank you Side and

25:33

Sarah cool striking before we even gonna. Swimming

25:36

we got some time round. What was

25:38

that.action? going to be so. I'm seven

25:40

thousand, six hundred, ninety two.

25:43

Is. Feels very like at nine and

25:45

six and seven and two can kind of be

25:48

like reflected in change and like that looks like

25:50

each other and I was wondering if the plastic

25:52

was it like and transparent in some way like

25:54

a boost if who sought kind of thing that

25:56

there was something going on with that but I

25:59

hadn't. as live. That it's not a. Scratch

26:02

that of let's hear the first hint or

26:04

have on my see the paper here is

26:06

there's nothing specific subset of the have the

26:08

six hundred and ninety takes a fights are

26:10

not not as if be cited as seven

26:12

thousand six hundred ninety just speak. It might

26:14

take a little bit longer to get to

26:16

pin number of like well.incitement I think it

26:18

did every single one of us get a

26:20

piece of paper and write down the samba

26:22

and and look as if I think about

26:24

a certain elements yeah I the next hour

26:26

earlier that the piece of plastic was a

26:28

debit or credit card. Just and

26:30

that was the part of of of Simon's

26:33

guess that was correct. They're. Just.

26:35

With see writing the amount of money

26:37

that was in her account on that

26:39

debit card, Simon's closer. Much. Closer

26:41

is this quite a. Is

26:43

is not a good reason for her to be doing

26:46

this because it's a really i feel like it's someone's

26:48

like demanding you're buying pod and telling you to like

26:50

right the pin number down and then she like never

26:52

sees a gang seaside heights of like give it to

26:54

the my son of to. Pay a price. She

26:57

wrote her pin backwards on the had

26:59

debit card and gave it to the

27:02

person that was rubbing her because writing

27:04

the pin backwards would get the cod

27:06

lost inside the machines. I think if

27:09

you write a pin backwards you'd like

27:11

you've got your time. Sanders some is

27:13

just do the stuff. I

27:16

think the backwards printing is no urban

27:18

myth. Sometimes great of your sexual themes

27:20

of have to ask for hims thought

27:22

you were among the right lines that

27:24

it's not horribly written because she's being

27:26

mugged. But. You definitely a

27:28

the right lines. Busy. Giving

27:30

it to someone else though, he said he

27:32

see didn't ever use the nothing, never referred

27:34

to that number again. But. We

27:36

know that it's not the pin to that cod

27:38

that was written on that. It is not

27:41

the pin. That. Do we know if it's

27:43

her cause for the she's the she doing it for someone else.

27:45

Or is it is her card. It's hard

27:47

cause there's not a penny. Penny.

27:50

Is trying to commit. Fraud.

27:54

Looked at somebody else entering that pin

27:56

and wrote it on her cod. And

28:00

then stole that person's card. And

28:02

has twenty minutes to. Go. On a

28:04

spending spree, it's a mister. Be pretty

28:06

fast. put your last two guesses together.

28:08

I like a new basically got it.

28:10

This is about crime. This is about

28:12

safety and security. You basically that it

28:14

is Penny the criminal is Penny A

28:16

We we is the is of we

28:18

establish the pennies. the criminal pennies defending

28:20

against criminals Here this is a debit

28:23

card that she is going to just

28:25

gonna leave in a wallet somewhere somebody

28:27

is going to go and put this

28:29

into and eighty and machine type in

28:31

those numbers and they will now have

28:33

a Cctv. Recording of summary that just stole

28:35

this wallet. And so it's a means

28:37

of like find out if if if the and

28:39

finding the thief or. In. Some way shape

28:41

or form. Nearly. As you said,

28:43

I like that she's written down

28:45

deliberately the wrong pin. Why?

28:50

Would you do that? Why we put the wrong

28:52

pin on your the number.takes it it gets the

28:54

cod locked because they enter the pin in and

28:56

it. It's. Wrong. And so she then

28:58

finds out over this period in time

29:00

my card got locked, that for guess.

29:03

My. Card been taken. Out it's It's

29:05

not a more complex it is to fool

29:07

thieves. If you say that is a card

29:09

gets taken. Have

29:12

been stupid. Don't put the pin number on

29:14

it. so why might you write that down?

29:16

hurriedly? You. Not under any

29:18

pressure here. Why? you scrolling this on the

29:21

back Recall: I guess it makes

29:23

it seem like it's. Not been

29:25

necessary like of focusing still plans

29:27

like. Oh yeah, this is just

29:29

the thing that I put down so that people

29:31

think that is. Like. Just a casual thing

29:33

I've done over the like a plan to. Trap you

29:35

in the moment. Or.

29:39

Actually goes. I wait. hang on. Is

29:43

it so. That it's not necessarily

29:45

entirely clear what the numbers all say that

29:47

people type in a few time to try

29:50

and like, get it said, that it will

29:52

lock you out because it will you go

29:54

through the tries. Yep, it

29:56

take root in Rio attempts. Usually.

29:59

To get a call the locker machine. So

30:01

if you have a scroll number that our

30:03

but maybe that's a one made us a

30:05

sudden made up and nine maybe that's a

30:07

zero then it's someone takes a card. They

30:09

will use the wrong pin number multiple times.

30:12

I. Get sucked into the machine never to be seen

30:14

again. Was. Phenomenal. I

30:16

did this brilliance. Simon

30:20

of these the next question. So

30:22

this question has been sent in

30:24

by Gary Golf In Twenty sixteen,

30:27

the computer system at East Lake

30:29

County Library Florida season was three

30:31

hundred and sixty one books on

30:33

loan to Chuck Finley. Rather than

30:36

putting a burden on municipal resources,

30:38

this ought to a saved money

30:40

for the County. House.

30:44

In Twenty sixteen, the computer system

30:46

East Lake County Library Florida had

30:48

two thousand, three hundred and sixty

30:50

one books online to Chuck Finley.

30:52

Rather than putting a burden on

30:55

municipal resources, this ought to save

30:57

money for the County. How

30:59

we all wrote down to Three

31:01

Six One Or like it's his

31:04

pin number of years and habitat

31:06

to that's Ah, that's. A pin number.

31:09

And that so I know with libraries and

31:11

it's one of those things that I think

31:13

a lot of people think I dunno, just

31:15

the library. They just get money. But the

31:17

amount of books that are loaned out and

31:19

like the circulation of the birds actually does

31:21

make a difference to a lot of libraries.

31:24

Like the amount of budget that they get allocated

31:26

so I don't but they're not wouldn't necessarily be

31:28

about saving money. would have been about like getting

31:31

more income from a county. by being like that

31:33

we the lightens to that thousands. Of books

31:35

are online like but that's not. Saving.

31:38

Money necessarily. If you've

31:40

lost books, And you

31:42

admit that you've lost them, you would

31:44

presumably need to purchase them again. However,

31:47

If you pretend that the books that

31:49

just simply on loan you don't need

31:52

to purchase them again and said Chuck

31:54

Finley is that. Pretend

31:56

book lover. Who. Stops

31:58

people finding out that that books. In fact,

32:00

been. Lost. Just

32:02

racking up with enormous amounts of finds that

32:05

at some point it out some be in

32:07

top form the seem will come collapsing down

32:09

on the library will be in trouble in

32:11

my head. I'm. thinking phone

32:13

books, And that's because I

32:16

remember the library. When. I was

32:18

a kid. Had a copy of

32:20

every single phone book in the

32:22

country. Which. Against dates me in jail

32:24

how old am like the fact of phone books

32:26

were thing then. But but. Every

32:29

town in central like we would have a

32:31

copy of every phone book. Because.

32:33

Someone needs to look up information. Sometimes

32:35

I'm wondering like. A. Slide. We

32:38

had decided to get rid of all that

32:40

phone books to save money on storage or

32:42

something like that. it's Chuck Finley phone in

32:44

secrecy fastest had decided to take them off

32:46

bans. Certainly. Is the

32:49

name is a retired basketball player. a

32:51

real person. And he was.

32:53

It's an alias or or or it was

32:55

in fact Chuck Finley that had these books.

32:58

The books. Nevertheless, The library. Oh, there goes. my

33:00

idea of Chuck Finley been the same as positive

33:02

tests from books. And how seven months. See,

33:05

I got is like you. I did some of

33:07

the. of the savings space like

33:09

storage dining space a story suffered as i didn't

33:11

never left the lie be than the didn't really

33:13

save on on sewage. Feet or the Night Off

33:15

You are on the right lines. That

33:18

this is an assistant related.

33:21

Issue. I wonder. okay so even

33:23

though the is a real sucks and me

33:25

is a real person that i think the

33:28

on it your whole question about whether it's

33:30

an alias others like a code in a

33:32

way to have like insecticides and stuff where

33:34

it's like a at technically a person but

33:36

it's use as a code for something and

33:38

it's kind of interesting cause assuming isn't just

33:40

that this florida love random public library with

33:42

said. That right area for other

33:44

maybe was maybe success. With

33:47

was I guess we'll use my count. The

33:49

old nefarious money saving schemes library.

33:51

I'll I'll do nothing. Okay,

33:53

I'll give you a hint about one. Shot.

33:56

Didn't create this account. The Library

33:58

to Librarians created. The. Cause.

34:01

Chuck Finley named after the Buckeye basketball

34:03

player but he had nothing to do

34:05

the oh okay so why were they

34:08

being used to prop? Not heard it

34:10

somewhere else in the people there might

34:12

be couldn't afford strikes like Mountain to

34:14

both is kind of piled up a

34:16

load of books which in my head

34:18

of are still some books. I don't

34:20

know, I'm obsessed with this but it

34:22

is very tall hoops. If is that

34:24

thousand one hundred and fifty been book's

34:26

idea of the Colossus. Yeah yeah that's

34:28

that. They would not phone books. I'll

34:30

tell you that. Some eggs a

34:32

once they were similar to

34:34

phone books in one regards.

34:37

Which. If I told you would

34:39

give the game bibles encyclopedias nice

34:42

not to do with their size.

34:45

The librarians which trying to prevent the

34:47

loss of these books. why might have

34:49

book be lost like either? So. You another

34:51

thing I know about my be consensus as stop

34:53

is that in Odis foods that sustain the library

34:55

they have to be loaned out in some way

34:58

like that the whole thing is like it's it's

35:00

either that doesn't mean lived in a while that

35:02

they will essentially like compare or cyclists which is

35:04

thought away so we don't have by saving a

35:06

bit of a bit that like out of print

35:08

or some other reason why you'd want to keep

35:11

them around but I haven't technically been loaned out

35:13

so it's like I can begin to say that

35:15

loaned out. By. This like six no

35:17

account so that we can keep them in

35:19

circulation. You. Or almost precisely correct. So

35:21

if a book is in bars

35:24

for a certain amount time, what

35:26

happens to it? But. Given

35:28

up we get sold. Usually like ruled

35:30

put it up my as a cheap

35:32

book sale. outsize. And if no

35:34

one takes it, it'll go in the recycling. right?

35:37

So you lose money on the foot. But then

35:39

what happens if someone wants to learn that book

35:41

in the future? He have to buy again.

35:44

Exactly so it's like a dirty around to be

35:46

like if we keep it in. Storage. We

35:48

don't technically have to destroy them, which

35:50

means it's a once again we don't

35:52

have to like by again. Exactly correct.

35:54

So basically if a book wasn't loan

35:57

for certain period of time they would

35:59

have to. How the Book and then

36:01

buy it again when it became popular

36:03

again at a higher price. So the

36:05

librarians created this account could chuck Finley

36:07

to borrow two thousand, two hundred and

36:09

sixty one books over the course of

36:11

nine months to they didn't have to

36:13

repurchase the De Vinci Code or whatever

36:15

it would be when suddenly everybody wants

36:17

to read it again. The problem with

36:19

that was. State. Funding was

36:21

linked to the number of Butlins. Take announce

36:23

say by adding two thousand, three hundred and

36:26

sixty one book planes, they had a four

36:28

percent boost in that funding which have nothing

36:30

to do with actual demand I'll set of

36:32

my parents were suspended. This is what you

36:34

get for trying to save the books out

36:36

a cliff. Good intentions going on in. The

36:43

last question then at the top the show

36:45

as one that was sent in by David

36:47

like the telly Thank you David! What creative

36:49

people work with both feet and meters. And

36:52

you'll want to take a shot at

36:54

that. Forgive the audience answer. I'm able

36:56

to say myself, i've I got a

36:58

man on person ten meters this very

37:00

day. Oh, deal to working both systems

37:03

37:05

Imperial with tools that a metric. Oh,

37:09

37:11

I have types twenty five point Four

37:13

into a calculator at least three hundred

37:15

times this week such as. I

37:19

guess is that there was a moon or Mars mission

37:21

that. Did. This is it's vivid that

37:23

it's not in this case on this

37:26

is more a play on words on

37:28

i accept that they're off of valid

37:30

Also answers in specific things here. I

37:33

was gonna say i don't think it's a

37:35

reference to length. I'm assuming it's to do

37:37

is I'm. Either. See, this is

37:40

the body. Paul Meter is in there

37:42

like music time I'm so I don't

37:44

know whether it would be something to

37:46

do. It's like combining. Those

37:48

elements like a different version of i didn't with
