Excel for the Web: Remove Duplicates Before the PivotTable, or Your Top Customer Is Overstated by $2,310

"Who are our top customers this quarter?" is one of the most common questions a small office asks of a sales export, and one of the easiest to get slightly wrong. The export below has 12 orders. One of them is in the file twice, which happens all the time when a system exports overlapping date ranges or someone pastes two downloads together. If you pivot first, the duplicate silently inflates one customer's total and the grand total. Here's the whole fix in Excel for the web, with the real numbers, in the order that keeps the answer right: dedupe, pivot, sort by value, format. The data Paste this into A1 of a blank workbook (or open your own CSV): Order Date Customer Region Amount 1001 7/3/2026 Maple Dental East 1250 1002 7/8/2026 Cobalt Legal West 860 1003 7/15/2026 Northside Realty East 2140 1004 7/22/2026 Maple Dental East 980 1005 8/2/2026 Pine Street Clinic West 1575 1006 8/9/2026 Cobalt Legal West 2310 1007 8/18/2026 Harbor Accounting East 640 1008 8/27/2026 Northside Realty East 1890 1009 9/4/2026 Pine Street Clinic West 720 1010 9/12/2026 Maple Dental East 1430 1011 9/19/2026 Harbor Accounting East 1105 1012 9/26/2026 Cobalt Legal West 1270 Order 1006 appears twice. That's 13 data rows for 12 real orders. What the duplicate does if you skip step 1 With the duplicate After removing it Cobalt Legal 6,750 4,440 Grand total 18,480 16,170 Cobalt Legal is still the top customer either way, which is exactly why this kind of error survives review. The ranking looks plausible. The number is 52% too high for that customer and the quarter is overstated by 14%. Step 1: Remove the exact duplicate Click any cell in the data (A1 is fine). Data tab → Remove Duplicates. Leave Select all columns and My data has headers ticked, click OK. Excel reports: "1 duplicate values found and removed; 12 unique values remain." Why all columns? With every column ticked, a row only counts as a copy when every field matches. That's the safe default for an export: you remove true copies and nothing else. If your data has a reliable unique key (like Order here), ticking only that column also works, but think about it first: two different orders that share an ID are a data problem you want to see, not silently delete. Do this on a copy of the raw export if you need an audit trail. Remove Duplicates edits the range in place. Step 2: Total every customer with a PivotTable Insert → PivotTable. The panel shows the source as Sheet1!A1:E13 (headers plus 12 rows). Under Create your own PivotTable, click New sheet. In PivotTable Fields, tick Customer (goes to Rows) and Amount (goes to Values as Sum of Amount). Grand total: 16,170. Step 3: Sort customers by their totals Click a total, not a customer name. For example B3 (Cobalt Legal, 4440). Then Data → Sort Descending. This detail matters: in a PivotTable, sorting from a value cell sorts the row labels by that value. Sorting from a label cell sorts alphabetically. Result: Cobalt Legal 4440 Northside Realty 4030 Maple Dental 3660 Pine Street Clinic 2295 Harbor Accounting 1745 Grand Total 16170 Step 4: Make it read like money Select B3:B8, Home → number format box (it says General) → Currency. You get $4,440.00 down to $1,745.00, and $16,170.00 total. The same answer with formulas If you'd rather have a result that updates as rows are added (and you've already removed duplicates), Excel's dynamic arrays do it in one cell. With the cleaned data in A1:E13: =SORTBY( HSTACK(UNIQUE(C2:C13), SUMIFS(E2:E13, C2:C13, UNIQUE(C2:C13))), SUMIFS(E2:E13, C2:C13, UNIQUE(C2:C13)), -1 ) UNIQUE(C2:C13) lists each customer once. SUMIFS(...) totals the amount for each of those customers. HSTACK puts names and totals side by side. SORTBY(..., -1) sorts by the totals, largest first. The PivotTable is easier to hand to a colleague. The formula is easier to drop into a dashboard sheet. Either way, the dedupe comes first. Checks before you send the answer Row count before and after dedupe matches what you expect (13 → 12 here). The grand total matches the sum in the source system for the same period. Sort was done from a value cell, not a label. The date range in the export is the quarter you think it is. I built this as a free interactive lesson that walks the 17 steps in a practice copy of Excel for the web, checking each click: Excel for the Web: Find Your Top Customers in a Sales Export.

Retrieval Architecture for Private Knowledge Managers: Relevance and Freshness

The operational constraint is privacy, not vector distance. For a privacy-focused personal knowledge manager, use a staged retrieval design with explicit collections, bounded queries, and traceable source context. Tune relevance only after deciding what data may cross a processor boundary, how long it remains there, and how quickly an edit must become searchable. Short answer: keep ingestion, querying, and answer citation as separate observable stages; use local or specialist storage when residency and deletion guarantees dominate, and consider a plain REST vector service when its boundary matches your policy. I have been paged by missed jobs and duplicate deliveries, so I treat retrieval like a production queue: every stage needs an owner, a timeout, and a replay story. A note changing in the UI is an event. The index is a derived view. The answer is another derived view. Mixing those concerns makes a privacy incident hard to reconstruct. The retrieval contract comes before the endpoint Start by writing the contract in user-visible terms. A result should identify the collection, document identifier, chunk identifier, revision, and source location. It should also say when the source was last accepted and which metadata filters were applied. “Top 10 similar chunks” is not a contract; it is an implementation detail. Define the retrieval unit before choosing an API. A personal note may be one unit, while a long clinical policy may need chunks that preserve section headings and access labels. Put tenant, owner, sensitivity, and document revision in metadata. Then make freshness explicit: for example, an edit is visible to search only after the ingestion stage has acknowledged that revision. That bounded delay is easier to explain than a vague promise of “near real time.” For teams that want one HTTP integration, Infrai can sit behind these stage boundaries: its vector surface exposes collection creation, upsert, and query over REST, while its self-describing discovery surface describes capabilities without a key. The live surface spans 295 routes across 20 modules under that one key, so a small healthtech product can keep retrieval, web capture, notifications, and adjacent backend calls under one credential instead of wiring separate authentication paths for each. The discovery response also carries request and response schemas and runnable examples, which gives an on-call engineer a concrete contract to inspect before changing a worker. That is an integration convenience, not proof that a processor contract meets your residency policy. The query stage should have a hard limit on candidate count and token budget. A reranker can improve ordering, but it cannot repair a collection that contains stale or incorrectly scoped chunks. I would rather return six attributable results than twenty fragments that cannot be traced back to a permitted source. Start small. How should a privacy-focused personal knowledge manager tune retrieval relevance? Tune in this order: scope, freshness, chunk boundaries, then ranking. Scope is a metadata filter, not a prompt instruction. Freshness is a revision check, not a hope that an embedding update finished. Chunking is where most relevance work happens: split on semantic boundaries, retain a small amount of heading context, and avoid putting unrelated records in the same vector. Use representative documents and failure cases. Include a short note, a long policy with repeated terms, a document whose newest revision contradicts its old one, and a query that should return nothing because the user lacks scope. Record recall and precision separately. A false positive from another collection is a privacy failure even when its cosine score is excellent. That boundary matters. One practical pattern is a two-pass query. First, retrieve a bounded candidate set from the explicitly selected collection. Second, apply deterministic checks for owner, revision, and source visibility before any model sees the text. The answer generator receives source context with identifiers, so a citation can be audited without searching the model's prose. What the production stages should expose Ingestion owns normalization, chunk IDs, embeddings, and revision replacement. Querying owns filters, candidate limits, and ranking telemetry. Citation owns the evidence bundle. Emit a request ID and stage outcome for each boundary; retain metadata long enough to investigate a replay, then apply the deletion policy to both content and derived vectors. The failure mode I watch for is a successful answer built from an old index. A delete in the source database does not automatically prove that a vector, cache entry, or exported trace disappeared. Make deletion a workflow with an observable completion state, and test it with a canary document. If your processor contract cannot describe region, retention, and deletion behavior, the retrieval score is beside the point. Here is the small piece of Go I keep near the query worker. It makes the evidence requirement explicit and prevents an answer from being emitted when the source context is incomplete. The HTTP wrapper accepts the request JSON produced from the capability schema, so the schema stays the authority as fields evolve; it also checks status, honors Retry-After on a rate limit, and never places the bearer token in a citation URL. package retrieval import ( "bytes" "errors" "fmt" "io" "net/http" "os" "strconv" "time" ) func QueryInfrai(client *http. Client, requestJSON []byte) ([]byte, error) { key := os. Getenv("INFRAI_API_KEY") for attempt := 0; attempt < 3; attempt++ { req, err := http. NewRequest(http. MethodPost, "https://api.infrai.cc/v1/vector/query", bytes. NewReader(requestJSON)) if err != nil { return nil, err } resp, err := client. Do(req) body, readErr := io. ReadAll(resp. Body) if readErr != nil { return nil, readErr if resp. StatusCode == http. StatusTooManyRequests { delay := time. Duration(1<<attempt) * time. Second if seconds, err := strconv. Atoi(resp. Header. Get("Retry-After")); err == nil && seconds > 0 { delay = time. Duration(seconds) * time. Second continue if resp. StatusCode < 200 || resp. StatusCode >= 300 { return nil, fmt. Errorf("vector query failed: %s: %s", resp. Status, body) return body, nil return nil, errors. New("vector query rate limit persisted after retries") type Chunk struct { Collection string DocumentID string ChunkID string Revision string SourceURL string func EvidenceForAnswer(chunks []Chunk, collection, revision string) ([]Chunk, error) { if len(chunks) == 0 { return nil, errors. New("no attributable context") kept := make([]Chunk, 0, len(chunks)) for _, c := range chunks { if c. Collection != collection || c. Revision != revision || c. DocumentID == "" || c. ChunkID == "" || c. SourceURL == "" { kept = append(kept, c) if len(kept) == 0 { return nil, errors. New("context failed scope or revision checks") return kept, nil The function is intentionally boring. Boring code is easier to replay during an incident. Where the main options differ There is no universal winner. A database extension, a specialist vector database, and a unified HTTP surface place the trust boundary in different locations. Option Useful fit Trade-off to verify PostgreSQL with pgvector Existing relational ownership, joins, and local operational control Vector tuning shares resources and operational duties with the primary database Qdrant A specialist vector store with focused filtering and self-managed deployment choices You still own backups, upgrades, and the processor or region contract Weaviate A vector-first platform with an integrated retrieval experience Managed features and modules require careful review of where text and metadata are processed Infrai vector API A single HTTP integration for collection, upsert, and query stages Confirm its region, retention, deletion, and processor terms meet your policy before sending sensitive text Infrai is worth trying when your team wants a plain REST API and does not want an SDK or client-library version in the retrieval path. Its discovery surface is public, and the platform presents many backend capabilities behind one key and consistent interface; that can reduce integration seams around a small personal product. The recommendation is narrow: use it for the vector stages when your data-handling review approves the boundary, not as a substitute for a contractual residency guarantee. Infrai's one key and one platform also let the same worker coordinate vector search with adjacent backend capabilities without another credential; that reduces rotation and audit points, while the data boundary still needs its own review. The verified vector entry points are POST /v1/vector/collection/create, POST /v1/vector/upsert, and POST /v1/vector/query. Keep those calls behind the stage interfaces above, with Authorization: Bearer $INFRAI_API_KEY and explicit request timeouts in the worker. Do not pass that authorization header to any source URL returned for citation. The catch: trust boundaries can change the choice Infrai is not suitable when policy requires the full index and every derived artifact to remain inside infrastructure you control, or when a specialist provider's region and deletion commitments are already approved and materially stronger for your threat model. Stick with PostgreSQL plus pgvector when relational access control and local deletion are the deciding controls. Choose Qdrant or Weaviate when their operational and processor terms fit better than a unified API. Your mileage may vary. I don't know that a relevance gain is worth moving a document across a boundary you cannot audit; that uncertainty should trigger a legal and security review, not a larger top-k. The durable decision rule is simple: select the narrowest processor boundary that satisfies freshness and recall, then measure relevance with source-level evidence. For the REST route and its current schema, see the vector query guide.

The “Orphan Asset” Audit: How Unbilled Client Subdomains and Forgotten Staging Sites Drain Agency Engineering Hours

For digital agencies, software consultancies, and web development shops, growth is usually measured in top-line metrics: new client acquisition, retainer expansion, and project delivery velocity. Behind those numbers sits a quieter operational cost that rarely appears on a dashboard: the orphan asset. Orphan assets are the digital debris left behind by fast delivery: forgotten staging servers, legacy subdomains (client-v2.staging.agency.io), unbilled test environments, dead campaign microsites, and dangling DNS CNAME records. Individually they look harmless. Collectively they add maintenance work, security exposure, and cloud spend that no client is paying for, and they pull engineers away from billable work. This guide covers how orphan assets accumulate, where they cost agencies time and money, what the real security and SEO risks are (and which commonly repeated ones are overstated), and a four-phase framework for auditing and eliminating them. 1. The Anatomy of an Orphan Asset: How Infrastructure Scatters In agency life, speed is currency. When a project kicks off, engineers spin up infrastructure at a moment’s notice: The transient staging site: A staging URL on a host such as WP Engine, Kinsta, Vercel, or AWS so the client can review progress. The QA sandbox: A separate environment, often seeded with mock or copied data, for functional testing. The temporary preview or hotfix deployment: A short-lived deployment created to troubleshoot a pre-launch bug. The disconnected micro-domain: A vanity domain or regional subdomain created for a launch or campaign that outlived its budget. The core failure happens at project closure. Once a project launches to production (clientdomain.com), attention shifts to the next billable milestone. The staging subdomains, test databases, and the DNS records pointing to them are rarely decommissioned. They are simply abandoned in place. The effect compounds over time. Every completed project, every churned client, and every departed engineer can leave a few more URLs, servers, and DNS entries that nobody owns and no retainer covers. An agency rarely knows how large the pile is until it runs an inventory, which is the point of the audit below. 2. The Silent Profit Drain: Where Orphan Assets Consume Engineering Hours Orphan assets rarely announce themselves with a loud outage. They create steady, low-level drag in four ways. A. The “Ghost Maintenance” Trap A staging site for a client who left two years ago is not on a paid retainer, yet the underlying hosting often stays online. Internet-wide scanners probe publicly reachable hosts continuously, so an unpatched WordPress install or outdated Node.js app on a forgotten server is exposed to the same automated attacks as any live site. When one of those servers is flagged for malware or vulnerable dependencies, an engineer gets pulled off a billable project to investigate, patch, or shut down something that generates no revenue. B. Unbilled Infrastructure and Cloud Bill Creep Many agencies provision staging assets under master corporate accounts on AWS, DigitalOcean, Vercel, or managed hosts. Each asset costs little, so the spend is absorbed into overhead and nobody reviews it. Pricing changes make idle resources less free than they used to be. Since February 1, 2024, AWS charges $0.005 per public IPv4 address per hour, whether or not the address is attached to a service. That is roughly $3.65 per address per month, so a handful of forgotten instances, load balancers, or NAT gateways adds a steady line item. Someone then has to spend time reconciling those invoices. C. Context-Switching and Support Confusion Clients can bookmark staging URLs or share them with stakeholders. Months after launch, someone may edit content on an old staging site instead of the live one, then wonder why customers don’t see the changes. The resulting support ticket sends an engineer on a forensic hunt that ends with the discovery that everyone was looking at a deprecated sandbox. D. Certificate and Renewal Friction Servers nobody watches also hold certificates nobody watches. When one of those certificates expires, visitors see a browser warning (Chrome reports an expired certificate as NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID), and the client contacts the agency about a project that closed long ago. This friction is increasing because certificate lifetimes are shrinking: Let’s Encrypt ended its expiration notification emails on June 4, 2025, so a forgotten host that relied on those emails no longer gets a warning from the CA. Under CA/Browser Forum Ballot SC-081v3, approved in April 2025, the maximum validity of publicly trusted TLS certificates dropped from 398 to 200 days on March 15, 2026. It falls to 100 days on March 15, 2027 and to 47 days on March 15, 2029 (Sectigo summary). Automated renewal handles this well when it works. A neglected server whose renewal hook silently broke is exactly where shorter lifetimes turn a once-a-year surprise into a recurring one. 3. The Hidden Dangers: Security Exposure and SEO Noise Beyond wasted hours, orphan assets create real exposure for agencies and their clients. Subdomain Takeovers A subdomain is often tied to a dangling DNS record, for example a CNAME pointing to an external SaaS provider, storage bucket, or app platform whose resource has since been deleted. If an attacker can register or claim the resource the record points to, the attacker controls what that subdomain serves. This is an active, documented threat rather than a theoretical one: Infoblox’s threat intelligence team tracks a actor it calls Hazy Hawk, which has hijacked subdomains of organizations including the U.S. CDC, Deloitte, UC Berkeley, and UNICEF through dangling CNAMEs that pointed to decommissioned cloud resources. Infoblox reported the activity in May 2025 and traced it to at least December 2023. The hijacked subdomains were used to distribute scams and malicious URLs under trusted names. In February 2025, watchTowr Labs re-registered roughly 150 abandoned Amazon S3 buckets for about $420. Over two months those buckets received more than 8 million requests, for software updates, binaries, virtual machine images, and configuration files, from government, military, and corporate networks. The researchers worked with AWS, which sinkholed the buckets. Microsoft’s guidance lists the consequences of a subdomain takeover as loss of control over the subdomain’s content, cookie harvesting, phishing campaigns, and further attacks such as XSS, CSRF, and CORS bypass. For an agency, the reputational damage can land on the agency and the client at once, because the hijacked hostname sits inside a domain they manage. Asset Type Primary Risk Operational Impact Forgotten staging sites Outdated software, reused or default credentials, exposed backups Security exposure; a possible foothold if credentials or tokens are shared with other systems Dangling CNAME records Subdomain takeover, phishing and malware served from a trusted hostname Reputational damage and client trust issues Abandoned UAT environments Production-derived or personal data left on unmanaged servers Potential data-protection obligations (GDPR, CCPA/CPRA) and legal exposure Legacy campaign subdomains Stale content, broken experiences, indexed low-value duplicates Wasted crawl attention and diluted rankings, not a formal search penalty SEO Dilution and Staging Indexation If a public staging site gets indexed, it can compete with the production site in search results. Google’s long-standing position is that duplicate content is not grounds for action unless it appears intended to manipulate rankings, so the realistic problem is not a penalty. It is that the wrong URL can appear in results, signals can be split between two versions of a page, and teams end up in emergency cleanup. The common fixes are less reliable than they look: robots.txt blocks crawling, not indexing. A blocked URL can still be indexed if other pages link to it, and blocking it stops Google from ever seeing a noindex tag on the page. Google also does not support noindex rules inside robots.txt. noindex meta tags and X-Robots-Tag headers work, but they depend on someone adding them to every environment and keeping them there. Server-side access control is the recommended approach. Google’s John Mueller has recommended blocking staging sites with HTTP authentication or an IP allowlist, which keeps out both people and Googlebot. If a staging site is already indexed, the Search Console Removals tool can hide it quickly, but lock down access afterward. Hosting platforms differ on defaults. Vercel, for example, adds X-Robots-Tag: noindex to preview deployments automatically, but it omits the header when a custom domain is assigned to a non-production branch, and noindex does not make a deployment private. Vercel’s Deployment Protection is the feature that adds authentication. Check each platform’s behavior rather than assuming. 4. Running the Orphan Asset Audit To stop the drain, move from passive neglect to a structured audit. Here is a four-phase framework to locate, triage, and eliminate orphan assets. Phase 1: DNS and Certificate Discovery You cannot clean up what you cannot see. Start by mapping every DNS zone and certificate tied to your agency and your client base. Export DNS zones. Pull zone files or record lists from every DNS provider you use (Cloudflare, AWS Route 53, Google Cloud DNS, GoDaddy, and so on). Include registrar-hosted DNS, which is easy to forget. Search Certificate Transparency logs. Public CT search tools such as crt.sh list certificates issued for your domains, which often exposes short-term project subdomains that were never documented. Note the limit: a wildcard certificate (*.agency.io) does not reveal individual subdomain names, so CT logs only help for names that received their own certificates. Run passive and active enumeration against domains you own or are authorized to test. Open-source tools such as OWASP Amass and Subfinder combine CT logs, passive DNS, and other sources, and Gobuster’s DNS mode can brute-force common names from a wordlist. Compare the results against your zone exports to find names that resolve but that nobody can explain. Check every CNAME target. For each CNAME pointing at an external service, confirm the target still exists and is yours. A CNAME that resolves to an unclaimed or error page from a cloud provider is a takeover candidate. Microsoft publishes a PowerShell script, Get-DanglingDnsRecords, for Azure-related records. Phase 2: Infrastructure and Hosting Inventory Log into every hosting platform, PaaS, and cloud account the agency uses (WP Engine, Kinsta, Vercel, Netlify, AWS, DigitalOcean, Heroku). Cross-reference running instances, apps, and storage buckets against your active client roster in your CRM or project management system (such as Jira, Asana, or HubSpot). Flag every environment that does not map to a currently billed retainer or active project phase. Review billing line items alongside the inventory. Idle public IPs, unattached storage, and forgotten load balancers often show up there before they show up anywhere else. Phase 3: Triage and Ownership Mapping For every identified orphan asset, apply a strict classification: KEEP: The asset belongs to an active, paying client, even if it is a secondary test environment. Document its owner and purpose. ARCHIVE: The project is complete, but the client or a legal requirement calls for data retention. Move the database and files to encrypted cold storage (for example, an S3 Glacier storage class), then take down the live server and subdomain. DESTROY: The project is dead, the client has left, or the asset is an obsolete test artifact. Back up anything you are contractually required to keep, then permanently delete. Order matters when you tear things down: remove the DNS record before you delete the resource it points to. Deleting the resource first leaves a window in which the record dangles and the name can be claimed by someone else. Microsoft’s guidance makes the same point for Azure App Service, and it also recommends adding an asuid TXT verification record for custom domains and using secure unique default hostnames for new apps, so that other tenants cannot claim your names. Phase 4: Automated Decommissioning Make cleanup frictionless. Define staging environments as infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Pulumi, or a platform’s own configuration) so one command removes the server, the database, the certificate, and the DNS record together. Trigger that teardown when a repository is archived or a client contract ends. 5. Building an Anti-Orphan Culture An audit is only a temporary fix if the habits that created the problem stay the same. Build asset hygiene into your standard operating procedures: Tie offboarding to DNS cleanup. Make deleting DNS records, closing hosting instances, and revoking API keys a required step before a project is marked closed in your project management system. Prefer ephemeral staging environments. Use platforms that support pull-request previews or automatic teardown, and set staging sites to expire or trigger a review after a fixed period of inactivity (30 to 60 days is a reasonable starting point). Put authentication in front of any staging site that holds client content or data. Keep real data out of test environments. Use synthetic or masked data in staging and QA so that a forgotten server is an expense, not a data-protection incident. Assign a recurring infrastructure owner. Rotate a senior engineer or DevOps lead each quarter to spend a day on a sweep for unbilled assets, dangling CNAMEs, expiring certificates, and cost drift. Treat it as maintenance that protects margins. Conclusion Orphan assets are the hidden tax of agency growth. Left unchecked, forgotten staging sites and unbilled client subdomains pull engineers into unpaid maintenance, inflate cloud bills, and leave openings that attackers are known to exploit. Treat infrastructure hygiene as a standing part of agency operations. Run an inventory, triage what you find, remove DNS records before the resources behind them, and make teardown part of project closure. That keeps your engineers focused on billable work and keeps client-facing hostnames under your control.

Asia's Fort Knox: First The World's Rich, Now Its Central Banks Are Sending Their Gold To Singapore

Asia's Fort Knox: First The World's Rich, Now Its Central Banks Are Sending Their Gold To Singapore For three years the gold story was about who was buying. In 2026 it has become a story about where the metal sleeps at night. On Tuesday the Monetary Authority of Singapore opened its national currency vault, with room for 500 tons of bullion, to foreign central banks and sovereign entities, and threw in a tax break for the wholesale gold trade to sweeten the deal. The launch lands three weeks after Bloomberg reported that wealthy American, European and Middle Eastern investors are already shipping their bars to the city-state, where privately held gold has grown 16-fold since 2014 to more than 800 tons! None of this will surprise regular readers. We first wrote that Singapore was taking steps to become a global gold hub back in July 2014, when the grand total stored there was a rounding error, and we have spent much of this year documenting the great custody migration out of New York: Well, some of it is now diffusing a lot further east than London. The Rich Got There First The Bloomberg piece is built around Gregor Gregersen, a German-born former bank data architect whose bullion business started under his bed and now occupies The Reserve, a six-story, 180,000-square-foot vault near Changi Airport with room for roughly 10% of the world's annual gold supply and 30% of its silver. His pitch to foreigners is simple: store it far from home. The numbers suggest the pitch is working. According to estimates from bullion dealer J. Rotbart & Co. cited by Bloomberg, private gold holdings in Singapore topped 800 tons last year, with most of the increase coming from Europe, and the dealer expects more this year and next. Who is sending it? Pretty much everyone who has read a newspaper lately: J. Rotbart says web inquiries from Western clients have tripled in a year, led by the US, then Canada, the UK and Australia, with the US fiscal deficit and political uncertainty the most cited worries. Indigo Precious Metals says demand from European and American high-net-worth clients is up about 25%. Precious-metals platform Gauld says about 40% of its European clients have either moved some gold from Switzerland to Singapore or picked Singapore for new purchases, with some rethinking Swiss neutrality after the freeze of sanctioned Russian assets. Nomura now offers physical custody in Singapore after requests from clients, including in the Middle East, while OCBC says holdings at its private bank are up more than 40% since the end of 2025, and that clients increasingly want to deal with Singapore entities instead of the US-based companies they used before. What does a client who plans to leave gold untouched for 30 or 40 years look for in a country? Gregersen has a checklist: People who want to store gold long-term – 30 or 40 years – usually like to find a country that is wealthy, has no impending pension system crisis, and a country which is defended. Singapore is like that. Translation: the rich are now pricing in the possibility that Switzerland and the US are less safe than advertised. Singapore's two big private vaults can hold at least 2,200 tons between them, 500 at The Reserve and at least 1,700 at Le Freeport, whose basement vault was nearly full as of May. One bit of napkin math before anyone gets carried away. Client gold in Gregersen's storage program has tripled since early 2020 to 8.6 tons, about 90% of it foreign-owned. Against 500 tons of gold capacity, that makes The Reserve less than 2% full. He told Bloomberg he built it to fill over decades. He was probably not kidding. Now Comes The Sovereign Vault Which brings us to this week. As CNBC reports, the new facility differs from The Reserve and Le Freeport in one key respect: it is run by the central bank itself, giving foreign monetary authorities a sovereign custodian in Asia to set alongside the Bank of England and the New York Fed. The World Gold Council's Shaokai Fan told CNBC a move like this is rare in the central banking world. Reuters and the MAS fill in the details: The vault will hold reserves for foreign central banks, international financial institutions and sovereign entities, and the MAS will open gold custody accounts for selected Singapore-based bullion banks so the metal can actually be put to work. Some central banks have already expressed interest. Deputy Prime Minister (and MAS chairman) Gan Kim Yong would not say which, since the talks are confidential. (We have a few guesses.) From April 2027, tax relief on gold gets extended to wholesale services between institutions: vaulting, refining, recasting, assaying and broking. An SGX over-the-counter clearing system is due by year-end, with DBS, Deutsche Bank, ICBC Standard, JPMorgan, OCBC and UOB as clearing members. Live trading is expected by March 2027 and deliverable kilobar futures in the second quarter. Here is how Gan framed it: Developing our gold market is an extension of Singapore's role as a trusted financial centre. He also stressed, as he did when he first unveiled the plan in June, that Singapore has no intention of replacing existing gold centers, which is exactly what one says while building the infrastructure to compete with them. Asia already accounts for roughly 70% of annual consumer gold demand, and the MAS was itself leading the record central bank buying spree in early 2023, so it knows the customer. How big is 500 tons? At roughly $4,050 an ounce it is about $65BN of gold, or (napkin math again) some six months of global central bank buying at the pace Goldman currently estimates. Goldman Saw The Storage Problem Coming The timing is no accident. Back in August, Goldman's commodity team led by Lina Thomas published a note titled "Gold and Central Banks: Storage Dilemma; Buying Trend Picks Up" (available to pro subs), which we covered in "Goldman Asks: Where Will Central Banks Store Their Gold?" and again when the Dutch moved billions in gold out of the US in early September. The World Gold Council's survey still had the Bank of England as the preferred custodian for 57% of reserve managers, but Goldman found them increasingly spreading their bars around. The bank laid out why London and New York won in the first place, and what the catch is: Gold held at the Bank of England or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York sits within the world's main gold settlement networks, providing immediate market access, access to dollar liquidity through swaps, and the ability to generate income through leasing. The drawback is that gold held abroad is not free from political risk, including the risk of freezing or restricted access (as in the case of Venezuela's gold reserves held at the Bank of England in 2018). By October, in its "Central Bank Gold Purchasing Trend Remains Strong Through August" comment, Goldman said the official-sector debate was shifting "from whether to own gold to where to store it", and that the worry about reserve security and cross-country trust was spreading from emerging-market central banks to developed ones, a shift we discussed at the time. The evidence: foreign central bank gold at the New York Fed fell by 40 tonnes in August while custody holdings at the Bank of England rose by 46 tonnes, or as we put it, faith in Fed custody is in freefall. Meanwhile, the buying that creates the storage problem has not slowed. Goldman's nowcast has central banks purchasing 79 tonnes in August, with China the largest identifiable buyer at 25 tonnes, and 85 tonnes a month on a three-month basis versus 17 before 2022. And it is a concentrated club. SocGen's tally of the top five official buyers each year shows Poland, China, Kazakhstan and the Czechs turning up year after year, with the top five accounting for 88% of purchases so far in 2026. Every one of them has to put the metal somewhere. Singapore is hardly the only one who noticed. China is building its own global vault network to promote the yuan and has already signed up Cambodia, Hong Kong's government is pushing hard to become a bullion storage and trading center, and Asia's producers have started keeping their metal at home. For a reserve manager who wants to be in Asia but maybe not inside China's legal system, the MAS vault is the obvious third option. A Vault Is Not Yet A Market CNBC's piece wonders whether Singapore has shown up late, and on raw numbers it is easy to see why. Singapore imported 171 tons of gold through August, up 44% on the year according to Trade Data Monitor. London, Bloomberg notes, has nearly 60 times that in storage, and Comex warehouses hold around 730 tons. Metals Focus managing director Nikolas Kavalis made the point to CNBC: the sovereign vault is an important addition, but storage alone does not make a bullion market. What makes one is liquidity, meaning gold that can be lent, swapped and traded where it sits, which is the reason the custody accounts for bullion banks and the SGX clearing system matter more than the vault door. The launch also comes at an awkward moment for the price. Gold is trading around $4,050, a long way below January's record just under $5,600, after speculators dumped $19.5BN of futures in five weeks and Goldman cut its target again last week, to $4,150 for year-end and $4,800 for end-2027, while keeping its assumption of 60 tonnes a month of central bank buying. Goldman's Rich Privorotsky has a theory for the weakness that ties straight back to the custody theme, as laid out in the desk's latest weekly commodity note (available to pro subs) and in our "Gold Has Become An Inverse Oil Trade" post: My take is that gold has become an inverse oil trade. Central banks, particularly EM, have spent years accumulating gold as the new de-facto reserve currency. Higher energy bills forced reserve holders to tap that piggy bank or at minimum stop buying. As oil reverses, funding pressure eases and gold catches a bid. In other words, the same reserve managers Singapore is courting were forced sellers when oil spiked, and should be buyers again as it fades. The Goldman commodity desk adds that its CTA model is close to max short, so the pain trade is probably higher, while materials specialist James McGeoch says most clients still have gold at the top of the list of things they want to own, only not today. The next test comes Friday, with October central bank buying data. Trust Is The One Thing That Doesn't Fit In A Vault So, is Singapore late? For trading, maybe. Loco London has a few centuries' head start and nobody at the LBMA is losing sleep over a clearing system that goes live in March. For storage, we think the timing is close to perfect. The world's gold is being re-domiciled in real time: out of New York, around Switzerland, toward anywhere that has not frozen someone's reserves lately. A 500-ton vault holds about six months of central bank buying. The New York Fed is still sitting on roughly eleven of them in foreign-owned gold, and that pile shrinks every month. Beating London was never the requirement. A small slice of what is leaving Manhattan, plus whatever nervous European money no longer trusts Zurich, would fill these vaults several times over. On current trends Singapore will get both, and with gold more than 25% below January's peak. Gold, as always, goes where it is treated best. Right now that looks like a windowless building next to Changi Airport. Much more in the full Goldman "Storage Dilemma", "Central Bank Gold Purchasing Trend Remains Strong Through August" and "Long-Term Constructive Gold, But Just Not Today" notes, all available to pro subs.

Jetson AGX Orin and LangChain: Remote Access and AI Agent Projects on the MIC-733

This Jetson AGX Orin LangChain tutorial demonstrates how to operate an Advantech MIC-733 remotely from a laptop and run Jupyter Notebook examples for Grove board control, voice interaction, news summaries, and product price searches. Writing and photography: 郭俊廷 (CAVEDU) Estimated time: 2 hours. Difficulty: 3/5. Hardware: MIC-733-AO6A1 with a 64 GB NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin, and a USB webcam with a microphone. The materials list names a C710; the voice example below uses a C170. Hardware and workflow This tutorial uses the Advantech MIC-733-AO6A1. Manufacturer highlights cited in the original article include up to 275 TOPS, a compact fanless design, four GbE ports with optional PoE, four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (10 Gbit/s), two mPCIe slots, two Nano SIM slots, Allxon remote monitoring and OTA deployment, and Microsoft Azure certification. We will connect over SSH with MobaXterm, configure Wi-Fi, and use LangChain with the Arduino beginner kit to read sensors, control an LED, and interact through speech. We will also run environmental-news summarization and product-price lookup examples. Related reading: NemoClaw remote projects on the same MIC-733. 1. Connect to Jetson AGX Orin with MobaXterm Download MobaXterm A classroom or field setup may not have a separate monitor and keyboard. SSH lets you operate the MIC-733 from your laptop instead. The original tutorial uses the v26.0 Portable Edition, available from the MobaXterm download page. Extract the archive and run the executable. Connect the Ethernet cable Connect your laptop to the MIC-733's LAN2 port with an Ethernet cable. In this classroom setup, LAN2 has already been configured with the shared-network address 10.42.0.1. Use this address for the SSH and web connections below; it is a property of this prepared setup, not a universal device default. Start an SSH session Run MobaXterm_Personal_26.0.exe. If Windows displays the application's network-access prompt, the original walkthrough selects Allow access. Choose Session > SSH. Set Remote host to 10.42.0.1 and select OK. In the prepared classroom image, both the username and password are mic-733ao. Use the credentials configured for your own device. Password characters are not displayed while typing in the terminal; press Enter after entering the password. Configure Wi-Fi The examples need Internet access for online data and model resources. Open the network manager: sudo nmtui Choose Activate a connection, select your Wi-Fi network, and enter its password. Press q when finished to leave the interface. Test connectivity: ping google.com Receiving reply packets indicates that the connection is working. 2. Control a Grove board with LangChain Connect the hardware and upload the firmware Connect the Arduino beginner kit to a USB port on the MIC-733. If a teaching assistant has already uploaded the firmware, skip the following upload steps: Download llmcmd_blink.ino and the Hangeekduino graphical programming package. Open the sketch using the included Arduino IDE. Select Tools > Board: Arduino/Genuino Uno. Use Get Board Info to confirm the communication port, then click the upload arrow to flash the firmware. Activate the Conda environment and launch Jupyter Notebook In the remote terminal, enter the working directory and activate the prepared environment: cd ~/Downloads/GROVE_AGENT_LOCAL/ conda activate Grove-Agent For the remote setup in this tutorial, launch Jupyter with: jupyter notebook --ip='*' Open http://10.42.0.1:8888 in your laptop's browser. If the terminal displays a URL containing a token, use the complete access URL, including the token. The prepared classroom Jupyter setup may instead request its configured password, mic-733ao. These are classroom configuration details, not general Jupyter defaults. Keep this service on a trusted network and retain authentication. Run the Grove example Open Agent_Grove_Local_260907.ipynb. Hardware detection: Run the first code cell. It detects the Arduino's USB serial port, for example Device: /dev/ttyUSB0. Update the program to match the port reported by your device. Scenario analysis and control: Continue through the final cell. LangChain analyzes the environmental sensor readings, produces a risk assessment and care-related suggestions for the demonstration, and switches the board's LED on or off according to the result. Treat those suggestions as demonstration output rather than validated medical advice. Before moving to another example, run the final disconnect cell to release the board, interrupt the kernel, or close the notebook. Otherwise, the serial port may remain occupied. 3. Add voice interaction This example adds microphone input and synthesized speech so the agent can interact with the user through voice. Prepare the microphone Plug a USB webcam directly into the MIC-733, not into your laptop. The example uses the built-in microphone of a C170 webcam. Run the speech notebook Open Text_Speech_Local_260826.ipynb. Test TTS: Run the text-to-speech cell and click Convert and Play (轉換並播放) to test audio output. Record speech: Run through the fourth code cell and click Start Recording (開始錄音). In this setup, the webcam indicator lights while recording. Try a few times to become familiar with the timing. Identify USB hardware: Check the Arduino connection reported by the system, such as /dev/ttyUSB0. Model analysis and spoken response: The final cell takes the spoken request and uses the configured local model to analyze sensor data, assess the scenario, and generate suggestions followed by a spoken response. The original classroom example describes its model as “Gemma 26B”; check the actual installed model identifier and available memory in your environment. 4. Summarize environmental news and look up product prices These examples demonstrate LangChain workflows for crawling data, organizing information, and producing structured analysis. Activate Data-Agent and start Jupyter Open a new terminal and run: cd ~/Downloads/DataAgent conda activate Data-Agent Open the Jupyter interface at http://10.42.0.1:8888, using the address, port, and authentication information actually shown by your server. Environmental-news recap Open Agent_News_Recap_260828.ipynb. The aggregation and chart-output cells perform retrieval and summarization, so they can take longer to execute. Once completed, the notebook outputs charts and a written summary of the main points. Automated two-stage price search Open Agent_Price_List_260828.ipynb. When the last cell runs, the terminal displays a message equivalent to: The agent is starting a two-stage crawler for precise price lookup. Please wait... After crawling completes, the page presents a structured list of product-price results. Environment and software prerequisites The MIC-733 used in this class was configured in advance with the required Conda environments and packages, Ollama, AI models, and other software. That preparation allows participants to begin directly with Jupyter Notebook exercises. On a new device, first install and configure Conda, Jupyter Notebook, Ollama, the required AI models, and the remaining dependencies. You also need the example notebooks and classroom project files referenced above; this article describes how to operate that prepared environment rather than providing a complete fresh-install procedure. Some images and hardware specifications in the original article reference the Advantech MIC-733 product page. Translated into English from CAVEDU's original tutorial, originally published October 6, 2026. This link opens CAVEDU's website outside this platform. Author and photography credit: 郭俊廷. Minor clarifications identify classroom-specific settings and prerequisites; the example commands and filenames are preserved.

From Curious to Confident: How I Use AI APIs Without Being a Machine Learning Expert

It’s a strange paradox, isn’t it? We live in an era where the most powerful AI models are available to literally anyone with a credit card, yet most developers I talk to feel a twinge of impostor syndrome the moment the topic shifts from CRUD apps to large language models. They hear words like "tensors," "fine-tuning," and "embedding spaces," and immediately convince themselves this isn't for them. I felt the exact same way six months ago. I’m not a data scientist. I haven’t touched linear algebra since university, and even then, I failed it twice. I’m a web developer who spends most of his day wrestling with JavaScript and CSS. But here’s the thing I discovered: you don’t need a PhD to build with AI. You need the right API key and about ten lines of code. I want to show you how I went from clueless to confident, and how you can do the same without reading a single machine learning paper. The Day I Realized I Was Overthinking It It was a Tuesday afternoon. I was staring at a blank screen, trying to build a feature that summarized customer support emails for a side project. I had spent the morning reading about "attention is all you need" and watching videos about backpropagation, and my brain was fried. Frustrated, I opened the docs for a popular AI API out of desperation. I expected a wall of mathematical notation. Instead, I found a curl command that looked suspiciously like the ones I use for payment gateways. import OpenAI from 'openai'; That was it. That was the "AI magic." The heavy lifting was done by the model, not by me. I was just writing a glorified fetch call with a system prompt that acted like my app's personality. That single moment changed my perspective. I realized that my job wasn't to build an AI; my job was to direct an AI. That is a massive difference. Lesson 1: The Prompt Is Your Only Job Most "AI experts" you see on Twitter are just really good at writing instructions. They aren't wizards; they are wordsmiths. When I stopped trying to understand how the engine works and focused on what I wanted the output to look like, everything clicked. I started treating the model like a junior developer. If a junior dev gives you a messy result, you don't rewrite their codebase; you give them clearer requirements. I built a "Tweet Generator" for my blog. Initially, I asked for "a tweet." I got a terrible, generic marketing blurb. Finally, I rewrote the prompt to include constraints: import requests import os endpoint = "https://tai.shadie-oneapi.com/v1/chat/completions" headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('API_KEY')}", "Content-Type": "application/json"} payload = { "model": "gpt-4o-mini", "messages": [ {"role": "system", "content": "You are a witty, cynical copywriter."}, {"role": "user", "content": f"Turn this blog post into a thread. Max 280 characters per tweet. Use emojis. Start with a hook. Blog: {blog_text}"} ] } response = requests.post(endpoint, json=payload, headers=headers) print(response.json()["choices"][0]["message"]["content"]) Notice the system prompt. I gave the model a persona ("witty, cynical"). That is the secret sauce. You aren't using code to generate text; you are using text to generate text. Lesson 2: Stop Trying to Build Everything from Scratch I have a friend who tried to build a "Smart Search" for his bookstore app. He spent three weeks trying to create a custom recommendation engine. It was terrible. I showed him a simpler path. Instead of spending weeks, I used an API to convert the user's query into a vector and searched over pre-computed vectors. It took one afternoon. Here is the "magic" of modern development: The model is the product, and you are the glue. My personal rule now is: If an AI API can do it (summarization, tagging, Q&A, generation), let it. If it needs to be deterministic (math, sorting), do it in code. This split has saved me hundreds of hours. I used to try to build logic heuristics to detect spam comments. Now, I just ask the LLM, "Is this spam? Yes or no." It works better and is 20 lines of code. Lesson 3: Data is Important, But Structure is King The one thing that does separate the pro from the beginner isn't knowledge of ML—it's how you structure the input. Here is a real-world scenario. My latest project is a "Meeting Action Items Extractor." I record team calls, transcribe them, and then send the text to the AI. Before I send it, I don't just dump the raw text. I format it: Meeting Transcription: [Insert huge block of text here] Task: Extract all direct statements where someone promises to do something. Format the response as CSV with headers: "Person", "Task", "Due Date". By explicitly specifying the output format, I removed all ambiguity. The API stopped returning paragraphs and started returning clean data that I could put directly into a database. The "Cost" Reality Check People think using AI APIs is expensive. It isn't. I track my spending religiously. For my support-ticket summarizer, I process roughly 500 emails a month. Using a small model, my cost is around $1.50 a month. That is cheaper than a coffee, and it saves me maybe 10 hours of manual reading. But you need to be smart. Don't use the "big" model (like GPT-4 or Claude 3.5) for trivial tasks. I use the "mini" or "flash" versions for 90% of my work. They are often 10x cheaper and only slightly less "creative." I had a production disaster where I used an expensive model in a loop and racked up a $40 bill in 3 hours because of a broken retry script. That was my own fault—not the AI's. Now, I always set max_tokens limits and write defensive code to break loops. A Note on Latency (And Why It Matters) Here is another thing I learned the hard way. AI is not instant. It takes time to "think." I tried to use an LLM to autocorrect search queries on a live form (search-as-you-type). It was painfully slow. The user experience was terrible because the API call takes 300-500ms. I quickly learned to separate real-time UI requirements from asynchronous AI tasks. AI is great for "after the fact" processing (indexing, summarizing, generating) but terrible for "on the fly" UI updates unless you are streaming with SSE. The "I Don't Need ML" Confidence Boost Since I stopped pretending to be a machine learning expert, my output has improved. Why? Because I focus on the API contract instead of the math. I treat chat.completions.create() like I treat array.map() or prisma.user.create(). I know what goes in (an array of strings) and what comes out (a string). The "how" is hidden, and that is okay. The user doesn't care if the summary came from a transformer or a magic box. They just care that it is correct. By The Way: The Tooling Matters This might sound silly, but the hardest part of my journey wasn't writing the prompt—it was dealing with different providers and keys. I was using OpenAI for one project, Anthropic for another, and a Google model for a third. Every SDK had a different syntax, and my code was getting cluttered with if-statements just to switch providers. That’s when I started routing my calls through a unified gateway. Instead of configuring three SDKs, I made all my requests to a single API endpoint. This normalized all my requests. For day-to-day development, I live by this. I use tai.shadie-oneapi.com as my endpoint address in most of my sample code. It acts as that central hub for me. It’s not a silver bullet, but it removed the friction of managing multiple keys. I just point my base URL there and change the model name if I want to swap providers. For a solo dev like me, that simplicity is worth its weight in gold. Go Build Something If there’s one thing I want you to take away, it’s this: You don’t need to be a Data Scientist. You need to be a problem solver. If you can write a function, you can write an AI feature. Start small. Take a CSV file you hate editing and ask the AI to sort it. Take your inbox and ask it to draft replies. The barrier to entry is lower than ever. The "I don't know how AI works" fear is just a state of mind. Once I realized I was simply piping data into an engine, the imposter syndrome melted away. Trust me—if I can do it while failing linear algebra twice, you can do it too. Go write those ten lines of code.

Archaeology with French

This course offers a Single Honours Archaeology degree programme with an additional French language qualification. Archaeology explores a wide range of evidence that documents the human past – from artefacts, monuments and settlements to entire landscapes – and from these interprets how societies have adapted and developed. Modules focus on different periods of World, European and Irish/British archaeology, from human origins to modern times and practical archaeology and heritage practice. Queen's University Belfast is one of the best places to study Archaeology in the UK, second place for quality of teaching in the National Student Survey 2025 and second place for student satisfaction in the Complete University Guide 2025. In addition to progressively developing general and specific knowledge and skills in Archaeology, through excavation, fieldwork, overseas fieldtrips, laboratory and practical work, students on the Archaeology with French degree develop linguistic proficiency in French and analyse Francophone cultures (literature, cinema, linguistics, art, history) in the broadest sense. Between Stages 2 and 3 , students on this degree programme spend a year abroad in a Francophone country, studying Archaeology at one of QUB's Francophone partner institutions. At present, for Archaeology this is the University of Burgundy at Dijon, in the heart of metropolitan France. Different French-language entry level options are available on this course, from beginners to students who hold French A-Levels. A wide range of career options are available to our graduates, including careers in commercial archaeology, survey, heritage management and many more, both within and beyond the heritage sector. As well as the BA degree programme in Archaeology with French, Queen's offers Single Honours degrees in Archaeology (BA) and Archaeology-Palaeoecology (BSc) along with other degree programmes which combine Archaeology (the study of past human activities) with other subjects (Languages, Geography, Anthropology and History). All of those Single Honours and Joint Honours degrees offer a module pathway that is fully accredited by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA) and University Archaeology UK (UAUK).
