Hello guys. I am Peter from Build a Boeing

I think owe you a part two of my video about my curved screen

And so this is it. If we look to the lifts you can see the picture

stretches all the way to left and then over here to the right.

So this is actually 180 degrees curved screen.

If you have the room here as reference you can see that it is actually curved

I am still using sheets so that's why it's a bit uneven here a bit wobbly there

That's also why it's a bit unsharp and I need to do a bit of final calibration

But I've done rough calibration and satisfied with the result so I'm gonna proceed with this project

I bought the Fly Elise program and just like to show you the program

(let's see here)

(There)

That's the Fly Elise Immersive Pro program

And it's fairly easy to use

One thing though that cost me a bit of headache to begin with

you need to activate the Nvidia Surround function

It's in the Nvidia control panel you need to do that first - at least I did

I couldn't make it work otherwise

Before I had these letters there. That was one screen and one display

and then overhere a second set of letters that was displayed too.

Using this surround function this is now one display

and you have the lettering in the middle right there

Before when I had letters here and here when I started the program

the second screen over here would just go black

Now it's working! Setting it up it's actually fairly easy

The way I did it - The rough calibration was using my structure behind the screens

You can see I have one, two, three, four vertical supports for projector one

and then over here is projector two - one, two, three, four supports

Then on the top here I have a horizontal support; stabilizer - horizontal stabilizers

and I have one down here as well going behind the screen there and then understand

Then on these columns here I put a small piece of tape and marked it black for each 30 centimeters;

There, there, there, and then we have stabilizer behind there

so that gives me one, two, three, four, five, six points under way down

And one, two, three, four columns and six rows.

In this program what you do is you press "Configure"

Then you're get a picture that looks like this - you might have seen this before

Over here you configure the number of points you need.

Six - no - four and six and then you can choose a different picture

here if you don't want this with all the numbers

But I think it's that's the easiest one to use

Here you can see all the points one, two, three, four, five and number six is down here

Then it's it's actually just a matter of

taking the points like the one up here you can see it goes green there then you

can just pull it around and I need to put it right there

you take this one and you do the same but now I haven't removed the screen and

you cannot see the point - the mark - behind the screen

but I'm sure you can understand what I'm getting at.

That should give you perfect perfect squares

because I'm using this sheet and it is not even all the way around there is a

bit of difference you can see number four there is a bit wider than number 1

I'll fine tune that once I get

get a better screen / a better material.

I've also considered using this

This is a laser. I do not know what it is called in English

But it displays a red arrow - a red cross.

You might be able to see it right there around 17. I think it needs new batteries

You can also use that .

It's a matter of getting getting it on the same line.

then you... - once you've done that - you go in here in the program to blend

and then you start the overlap

First of all first of all you take the projector number one

and then lift the right side. I need to do the right side and then you can see

change the overlap which is the middle where they meet.

When you do that - this happens okay so you need to get that set to the right value so that they

meet over there between 16 and 17

Then you can fade the picture

You do that like this and the fading helps you - prevent you from getting two pictures at

the same place. That's gonna give you a small white a brighter mark all the way down

I actually got that - and I am going to calibrate that later on

You can also see that my 17 column is a bit narrow compared to 18.

16 goes up a bit.

That's fine tuning again. I will take care of that at another time

Once you're finished remember to click "Save" and then you're ready.

I just need to put just prepar3D in full screen mode again.

There we are.

And then you have a result that looks like this.

You can actually see that white line bright line I talked about right there

That's where they meet.

Fine-tuning later on

I still got some issues.

Take a look at that car coming here from the right to the left

Looks fine right now. Looks like a car. And then when it goes to the side

it gets very big and just looks very strange

Might have set up Prepar3d in wrong way

I got one picture one view and a very low zoom rate

If I move to.. Let's see if I can get a picture up from the side...

You can see the airplanes here looks all strange.

If you look to the side that's a normal bus and a Boeing 737.

I haven't looked into that yet.

But this this is good

Next I hope to be able to build the frame so that the picture of the windows kind of encloses the cockpit

I've also started connecting all the things, the overhead, the pedestal,

throttle the announciators.

Almost everything is working!

There's a bit of building left and then all the loose wires need to be reconnected.

This this is okay. Actually this is quite good

I'm Peter from BuildaBoeing. You guys take care. Bye bye.

Chatbot Course - DO and DO NOT of Dialog Design [Build Your Own Chatbot] - Duration: 4:54.

It would be easy to get lost in the details of how to implement the chatbot, and temporarily

forget the bigger picture.

In this quick video, I wanted to briefly touch on a few subjects that are worth considering

when designing a chatbot.

The first question we should ask is in regards the positioning of our chatbot.

Let's start with its role.

Is it going to act as an information kiosk, a customer support agent, a marketer, or a

sale representative?

Our flower shop bot example will not really look into customer orders or provide post-sale

support.

It will however provide information and in the process, also help us sell some flowers.

Keep the role in mind when designing chatbots for your own business.

Next, let's consider its purpose.

In our case, we want to help our customers in making the right choices when buying flowers,

and reassure them that the flowers will be delivered on time.

In the process, perhaps selling more flowers and cutting down on a few calls to our hypothetical

shop.

Another element worth considering is proactivity.

How proactive or reactive do we want our chatbot to be?

A more proactive chatbot will tend to solicit information from the user, engaging and guiding

them rather than passively waiting for a question to come along.

Depending on the type of chatbot you build, one approach might be more favorable than

the other.

In many cases, a combination of the two may be the best of both worlds.

Asking questions and guiding, when it's relevant, and sitting back waiting for the

user when it's more appropriate.

Tone and personality are also important.

Do we want our chatbot to sound more formal or more friendly?

Just adjusting a few words in a sentence can lead to our chatbot sounding a lot nicer/inviting

or, conversely, to come across as completely distant.

This matters because chatbots with a friendly tone and a bit of personality to them tend

to be perceived more favorably.

We start thinking that the chatbot might be more useful, even intelligent, than it actually

is.

There are no universally right or wrong answers here, but thinking about what we want our

chatbot to accomplish and how we want it to come across will go a long way as we approach

building the chatbot.

It will enable us to choose the right dialog flow, words, and tone, as well as deciding

what to leave in and what to exclude from the scope of our chatbot.

In a previous video I mentioned that our scope is common questions and not all possible questions.

When you define the positioning, so the role, purpose, and proactivity, for a chatbot, you'll

quickly find out that the scope is even narrower than that.

Which is a good thing.

You don't want a chatbot that is a jack-of-all-trades.

It's better to have the chatbot handle fewer types of questions but do a great job with

those.

What we implement should reflect the positioning, tone, and personality we set out to provide

to our users.

In terms of good chatbot design, there are three fundamental rules that you should follow.

First rule: Avoid using yes or no in your replies.

If your chatbot fails to interpret the question correctly, a yes or no answer can be misleading

or provide the wrong information.

For example, you might be tempted to set the response for "Is delivery free?" to "Yes,

it is".

But what happens when the user asks the bot, "Is delivery free or do I have to pay?"

Watson will pick up the right intent, but the "Yes, it is" answer won't work here.

There are situations, perhaps because of negatives introduced in the input, where the chatbot

will respond yes, when a human would correctly respond no.

It's far better to provide an answer that covers the topic of delivery price, without

including an absolute yes or no element within it.

So "Deliveries are free." is definitely a much better option than "Yes, it is".

This brings us to our second rule.

When possible, incorporate part of the user's question in your response.

For example, say "I understand that you're looking for help with an order.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to look into orders that have already been placed."

And then perhaps we would have the chatbot refer the customer to our phone number or

email address, in order to help them perhaps speak with a live person about their concern.

This will further cement, in our user's mind, the relative intelligence of our chatbot,

even though it technically failed to directly provide what the customer was hoping to find

out.

The third rule is in regards to the length of the chatbot answers.

Succinct and accurate answers are best.

We want to be informative, but not reply with a wall of text.

When a wall of text is an absolute must, to convey the information, then deflecting by

sending the user to an informative page is a better approach.

In the next video, we'll finally get to build our flower shop chatbot from scratch.

How To Build A Bigger Biceps Peakgymnastics: - Duration: 3:34.

How To Build A Bigger Biceps Peak

My work at the Human Performance Lab at the University of Tampa allows me to investigate new ways to increase muscle activation through exercise.

One thing Ive discovered is that if you want bigger biceps, doing spider curls a different way can get you to those big peaks faster.

Spider curls are usually done off the steep side of a preacher bench, but something told me that the biceps might get more stimulation if the curls were done off the top of an incline bench.

As I describe in my article on increasing lat activation, electromyography (EMG) analysis, which measures muscle activation, is a great way to measure the efficiency of different exercises.

I used EMG to confirm my hunch: Making the biceps do more work in the starting position increases muscle activation.

The Power Of Constant Contraction.

When you do spider curls the normal way on a preacher bench, your upper arms hang perpendicular to the floor.

This puts your biceps in a relaxed position.

To really dial up the muscle activity, flex your shoulders to about 90 degrees (as if you were doing the first part of a front raise) and start your spider curls from there.

This one change enables you to initiate the curl with the biceps already contracted, rather than relaxed.

This initial contraction increases the biceps time under tension, an important factor in muscle hypertrophy.

If you start with your arms simply hanging straight down, you lose all that tension—and all those gains.

This elbows-forward position also increases the peak contraction by getting the biceps into a much shorter position than when your arms hang at your sides.

My tweak is based on the fact that your biceps brachii doesnt just enable elbow flexion.

While both the short and long heads act as elbow flexors, the long head also flexes the shoulder.

Starting in the new position works both the short and long heads of the biceps, so you get two gains for one exercise!.

Gain Big Even With A Light Start.

The first time you try this new starting position, be sure to use a lighter load than normal.

 Maintaining this new flexed starting position is hard! But not to worry.

Even with a lighter weight, youll be maximizing tension where itll do the most good.

Spider curls are harder when you do them this way because the incline doesnt provide the same upper-arm stability you get from the preacher bench.

This instability forces your muscles to engage more, which creates more muscle activation—and that means more muscle growth.

Okay, there you have it.

Now crush some arms!.

Native Advertising Insider Ep 2: How to Build a Performance Native Advertising Campaign - Duration: 3:37.

So to me, when it comes to content marketing it all starts with

the audience that you're trying to reach and the problem you're try to solve for them.

To create really good content you have to recognize that you have a variety of

different types of customers. And they may be buying a product for different reasons.

So once you identify the groups of customers or types of customers or

personas that you have, the next question would be to ask: What kind of problem

does my product solve for these customers?

To know if your content works or not, I think it all starts with an assumption.

With your best guess. The next thing is to deliver your content and see how

it sticks with the audience. Do people actually spend time reading it or not?

And you can gauge that as the validation for your assumption.

I think for me to gauge the success

of content that we produce

I definitely look at click-through rate, that's one of the metrics because it

indicates just top level interest in a particular content that we have produced.

But then after that, I'm only looking at time on side.

To me average time on site

anywhere above for example two minutes or a minute and a half for maybe

slightly shorter pieces, it's definitely a great way of gauging relevancy of the

audience that I am targeting.

There's nothing wrong with asking people to do a certain thing after a person reads a

piece of content. For example subscribing to a newsletter or

downloading an ebook or requesting to talk to a sales representative.

At the end of the day is a decision of a user or reader to do it or not to do it.

If you're one of those brands that are so great at telling really awesome

stories that give goosebumps, maybe you can get away with telling one story or

showing one video to a user for them to make a decision about your brand. But for

us mortals, most of the time you actually have to talk to a consumer multiple

times. There are various mediums. So that's why

it's great that you got the user to a piece of content, but that's just

very initial interaction. That's why you need to think of how can you retarget

users with more content and get them to read maybe articles or watch videos that

are more bottom of the funnel where they talk more specifically about the product

versus all the company values that they were originally to interact with.

The question of attribution of content is definitely not straightforward.

I don't think there is a silver bullet for attribution that currently exists,

otherwise I think everybody will be using it. I think you can use a

combination of different analytics tools. You could certainly use platforms that

try to help you map the user journey from the first point of interaction down

to sale. You would probably have to supplement it for maybe on site

analytics like Google Analytics but I would say it's a combination of multiple

things. At least at this point in time.
