Criminal indictment imminent for former Boeing 737 Max chief technical pilot
I agree. I am also over 50 and have zero problems learning new tech. It actually gets easier the more I learn because underneath the surface most “new” tech is just a rebranding of old tech invented 20 years ago. But I have worked with older and younger software developers who simply refused to learn anything new. So I don’t think it is an age issue. It is a personality issue.
My father had a massive bookshelf of programming books. As a 10 year old I'd wake up at 6am before class and read through more and more of his Visual Basic books before school. Really just allow freedom to material!
> When was the last time they created a new category?

Almost every current Apple product (save the HomePod) is the category defining product of it's class. The iPhone, the iPad, the M1 MacBooks, the Apple Watch, the AirPods, the Apple TV, the iMac, and the AirTags are all essentially best-in-class, and the standards-bearer for the category.
I guess you missed Apple Watch (which basically invented its category and leads it by a wide margin), and AirPods (also leads its category by a wide margin), and the M1 (instantly made a joke out of Intel) and most of the history of the iPhone.

Kinda makes one wonder what else you've missed. Such as, basically everything. "De facto" is not hyphenated, btw, nor did you use it correctly.

I'm trying to find that somewhere. I see obesity listed a possible comorbidity, but nowhere can I find a 25+ BMI (which is overweight not obese ~30BMI). Obesity would still cover 30-40% of Americans.
Same for me. It was the best customer experience. The employee used her iPad to communicate via text. Brief and straight to the point.
How does the effort pay off compared to a “normal job”? I get the fulfillment aspect, but is it cost effective for the labor?

No, because while it might take the US several weeks to get a fleet to Australia, it only takes us minutes to get nukes to China.

> In long term trees do nothing to CO2 because they only participate in a CYCLE.

In the long term, in other cycles, everyone alive will die, humanity will cease to exist, the sun will supernova, and the universe will contract to a single point (is the last one accurate?).

Meanwhile, sequestering carbon for 2,000 years seems like a useful cycle, and only a "short term" if your community functions on geological timescales. This isn't the grass in your lawn.

> For carbon to be permanently removed the tree would have to be somehow buried forever.

This is actually a thing. We just need to stop digging up those old trees.
I’d argue that there are more people creating now more than any time in history.
Agree. Don’t just learn random tech. Learn tech that is actually needed by potential employers.

"Establishing an ecosystem of venture based funding for artists in the same way we fund startups.

Supporting artists by enabling and funding their transition to tokenized creativity."

I mean, ideally, this is what record labels and A&R people are supposed to be doing. They just sort of don't anymore. The idea is that you take some of the money from established artists and use it to develop new talent, most of which fails, but a few become the next generation of established artists. Somewhere along the line the record industry was subsumed by apple music, which of course fails to give anything back to the community it leaches off of.

> Do you all the sudden have the right to put signs up at my house because it's bigger or on a busier street than yours?

No, I have the right to put signs up at your house because you put up a bulletin board and actively invited anyone in the neighborhood to put signs on it.

It's either open to the general public or it's not, and if you pick "not", the onus is on you to at least refrain from actively and ubiquitously contradicting that.
I think it's sorta the opposite. Artists are overpaid relative to the work that goes into making art. Look at at some of these recent artwork sales. tens of millions of dollars for art that frankly sucks. Gadis only wrote a few books and made a living off that alone. Some even make a nice, comfortable living from just a single published work (Harper Lee, ray bradbury). Glenn Greenwald makes millions from subcribers jsut to write thesame old predictable stuff. It's great work if you can get it. Paul McCartney's net worth has surged in decades despite not producing any noteworthy new music . All from licensing.
you're not going to absorb enough through your feet to have that effect. get a grip.
Nope. Quite the opposite actually.
In 2017 I rented a car for a day in Auckland, New Zealand, for $30. It was from a quirky "dings and dents" car rental, and the car was indeed quite lovely besides having a few major cosmetic crinkles in the door panels. The one employee working there was nice enough to drive us to the airport after, and he explained that they owned all of their inventory outright. He said that the other rental companies all leased or financed their inventory, and they struggled to keep enough cars rented out year round while also dealing with large seasonal demand peaks. Their company, meanwhile, had very low overhead for their size of inventory, and could weather arbitrarily long dry spells without worry.
Yes. The fact remains that Tim Cook could not do what was claimed out of his salary. Period, paragraph. Just as obvious: Tim Cook wouldn't do this if he weren't confident in his leadership. Apple stock is up more than 10x since he took over.

That's not a pure libertarian view, here or elsewhere. The pure libertarian view is that if it is a net benefit to twitter (including where less expenditure on moderation outweighs the costs of poorer quality of moderation), then it's a good idea.

The recent strange new throng of libertarian converts who parrot the "it's a private private company" line must adhere to this because they don't even pretend to entertain the suggestion that censorship, unfairness, or discriminating who may use their service could possibly have any downsides to society.

> make money worse as a commodity if we wish to make it better as a medium of exchange

This describes inflation, in so many words. That's why central banks targeting a low level inflation is an excellent idea - it makes people spend money, rather than save. Spending can include investment to stave off inflation's effects - which, in turn, makes for increases in productivity over all.

I'm underwhelmed by the NFT crowd. They're frantically trying to create artificial scarcity so they can Make Money Fast. There are now NFT pet rocks, called Ether Rocks. Prices are now up to US$1M. Somehow I suspect wash sales to pump up the price. The end of this fad may be in sight.

I kind of liked the Filecoin/Arweave distributed storage idea. Except that nobody seems to actually use it for storage much.
No, sorry...I was saying that's what I did when Locast folded, I switched to Tablo.
So you’re saying there doesn’t exist (and never did) racism nor misogyny, never antisemitism, but it was always a plot of the few powerful? Everyone always agreed and of course still does that all humans are created equal and deserve the same rights, regardless of religion, gender, skin color, sexual orientation, but the powerful elite overruled the peace loving and embracing populace? How convenient!

That’s a steep argument that I will not even engage with. You throw around numbers, but it looks like there’s quite a bit of history and current events for you to read up on.

The ethics of women voting, slavery, and the Holocaust were argued on the same biological basis, that some groups are simply fundamentally, biologically, inferior. It leaves me completely speechless and disgusted that you come forward and deny that.
so that's a pretty cool and elegant solution. i suppose they don't have the log tampering detection stuff implemented yet, but it seems straightforward to implement and i'm sure it will happen eventually.

cool. netflow for encrypted mesh networking. still vulnerable if both nodes are compromised via a sidechannel and collude on their logs, but that's also getting pretty radical in terms of an attack vector.

what about actually logging the contents? i've seen big commercial systems that look pretty much like distributed wireshark, with capture points, storage systems and pretty guis for inspection... not sure how prevalent and useful they are, but having a step deeper than netflow style logs can be useful, both for debugging and security purposes. i suppose you could do this double entry for that as well, but that seems a pretty high cost if the tunnels are high bandwidth?

> Those elected by definition are the best people available.

If by "available", you mean political candidates, then yes. If you mean of the society in general, then no, quite the opposite, actually.

> So if they don't have good morals that means the whole society does not have good morals.

No, it means two of the worst people in the society (namely, the 'republican' candidate and the 'democratic' candidate) do not have good morals. This a slightly stronger measure than the society's minimum level of morals, but not by very much, and says nothing about average or about particular non-politician cases.
I was trying to use an absurd example to point out that it's not unreasonable to set some limits on what an employer can ask of a (possibly potential) employee.

I was not commenting on what those limits are or should be. I was only pointing out that they exist.

I don't understand how this relates to your own example. You seem to be trying to say that a contract is either completely mutable in an unlimited way or else totally immutable? I don't see how that's true at all. There are many limits on contracts already, and yet they still change frequently as situations change.
> to hire 2 people (with 2 full time salary and benefits) when 1 will do

For one of the most profitable companies in the world, this doesn't seem outrageous (1 extra employee per store, maybe full time, likely not) especially given the fact that Apple doesn't support right-to-repair they will naturally have more foot traffic than most similar businesses.
You're basically taking the superstars of a field, though. Like walk into a bookstore, and most of those authors don't make $$. Same if you go to a local art fair. Same with acting.

Sycamore looks interesting, though it needs some more ergonomic improvements before it becomes more widely usable.

This is completely backwards. Everyone should be able to make art, nobody should NEED to profit from it in order to live. Only then will our art be a true reflection of human potential, rather than a scarcity mindset.
The weird thing about reciprocity (exchanging favors) is the value of the favor is rarely considered. For example, the exchange of pizza for help in moving.

Of course, if you're too cheap over too long a period, people may stop doing favors for you.
You cant get paid if you upload for free. Kinda undermines the “ Artists and 'creators' are becoming absurdly wealthy nowadays” argument. Theres all kinds of strings when compensation becomes involved.
Agree. Some of these YouTube creators are making absolute FU money. They don't talk about it because if they disclosed how much they made , they would not seem so relatable to their audience. Also, product placement, affiliate offers...tons of ways to make money.
I mean… OP said his stunt didn’t sit well with people and he had to leave soon after. So if you’re looking for an effective strategy, this ain’t it either.
So you don't know why it might be, except that you are very certain it is not because of any barrier to entry in the market and you insist there are no barriers despite there being very obvious ones.

Not very convincing. Pretty wild theory really.

Both of my parents (a doctor and a teacher, because what else would Bulgarian parents be) had computers and "Computer for You" magazines, so yeah, it was quite a thing.
The situation can be easily explained by supply and demand, isn't it?

There are so many supply of creators exceeds the demand. There are so many wanna-be YouTubers so YouTube don't need to pay most of them.

Whatever the solution would be, it won't be the ponzi scheme... I mean NFT.

A business isn’t a social club. More often than not, agitators have an agenda to agitate no matter what, or to provide air cover for other issues.

Purely anecdotal, but I notice my family members drive the cars a lot “harder” in terms of top speed, “jack rabbit starts” and braking more intensely than usual. I suppose it’s a combination of not being used to driving a car with such different weight and power, coupled with a more carefree attitude that being on vacation gives. We joking call it “vacation driving”.

I think the author fundamentally misunderstands the ecosystem, one of their suggestions:

> venture based funding for artists in the same way we fund startups.

This already exists in the form of record deals or contracts paying artists such as sculptors or painters for their next N pieces. It's worth noting that, in music at least, every year more artists are succeeding without this kind of investment and the percentage of music backed by a label is dropping[0].

The extreme supply of artists vs. demand will always mean most artists cannot be invested in, I'm not sure the OP has actually made the case that the problem their discussing exists.

It's harder if your current job sucks and doesn't embrace new tech. That's 8-9 hours a day wasted you could be learning new tech. So then you get home, cook dinner, etc. and try to squeeze in something new?

It's not impossible but I think if you aren't in a job (or working for yourself) that you're learning something new every day then you're falling behind.

I also don't fault the guy. Nothing in human history has ever changed this fast.
Try Plasmic.

I'm familiar with backend stacks but can't write a lick of CSS. This tool helped me build some small webapps.

I am in no way associated with them. Just a happy user.
I can’t get past the premise. Why do we need a “creator” economy instead of just a regular economy?
But why not an webapp from the beginning ?

I don't know what report you're referring to, I'm looking at the daily stats released today for my county.

Since September 1, there have been 435 COVID deaths. 70% of people in my county are vaccinated, so you'd expect that if vaccines were useless then 304 of those deaths would be amongst fully vaccinated people. But the real number is actually 81. However the 81 includes anyone who died with an active COVID infection, so I wouldn't be surprised if the real number was much lower. But assuming that 81 is it, it looks like the effect is more like a ~75% reduction in death odds
This reminds me a lot of https://lamdera.com/, though more React and less Elm. Lamdera has the added benefit that changes are deployed in real time instead of having to reload, including in production. This means the user doesn't get those annoying popups saying something like "there are new features, refresh your page".
wasn't my intention to just prioritize conventional art. I like niche, original stuff a lot, but I don't think there is more original, niche art today (maybe unintuitive take), or at least it is harder to find.

Can't remember who made this point but, music is now because of the 'creator economy' system so optimized for virality and attention that the medium itself has changed almost every genre for playlist optimization. The 'concept album' is practically gone. You will today have a fairly hard time find tracks that are very long or very short simply because it's not a great fit for typical streaming consumption. I find it now more difficult paradoxically to find great rap than I did probably 20 years ago.

Lockheed Martin Defense Wins Total $27B
Do the napkin math. $5 per 1k views of gross income? So if you churn out a video every week, and each gets 100,000 views, you make $500 a week, so less than half my take-home pay...and that's if it costs exactly $0 to prepare any of the content in the video.

100k views per week is extremely successful, especially if you're producing content of any originality or value instead of another unit in the grey goo of empty clickbait, which is a minumum requirement for calling someone a "creator" or "artist" in my book. It's not even close to no-adjectives wealthy, though.

And then there's people that work with...anything that's not videos.
