Bob Stein, Atari's Encyclopedia Project   Bob Stein worked at Atari Research for 18 months beginning in 1981. He was hired by Alan Kay. He worked almost exclusively on an encyclopedia project, a potential collaboration between Atari and Encyclopaedia Britannica that never went anywhere.   I learned about Bob after he uploaded an item called The Atari Drawings to Internet Archive. It's a collection of nine colorful pencil drawings, drawn in 1982 by Disney animator Glen Keane. The drawings depict futuristic scenarios where people use a computerized encyclopedia to get information: for instance, "An earthquake wakes a couple in the middle of the night. The Intelligent Encyclopedia, connected to an online service, informs them of the severity of the earthquake and makes safety tips readily available." and "A mother and her children looking into a tidepool in Laguna ask the Intelligent Encyclopedia about the plants and animals that they see."   Bob described the collection of art in his introduction to the document:   "In 1982 executives from Warner, Inc., Atari's parent company, were scheduled to visit the Research Lab where the Encyclopedia Project was located. Brenda Laurel and I came up with these scenarios to give the execs a sense of what we were working toward. The drawings were made by Disney animator, Glen Keane.   When you look at these, remember they were made 16 years before Google and 12 years before Yahoo, even 8 years before the earliest web-based search engines.   That said, one of the most interesting things about these scenarios as seen today, is that with the exception of the image of the architect and the teacher none of them indicated any inkling that the most important element of the web to come was that it would bring people into contact with each other. What we see here is almost entirely people accessing content from a central server, no sense that we would be communicating with each other or uploading our own contributions to the collective culture. My own explanation for this lapse focuses on the print-era mentality that saw readers purely as consumers of content."   Bob saved and scanned a large number of materials from his time at Atari, and uploaded them to Internet Archive. In addition to the scans of Keane's Atari Drawings, the documents include memos about the encyclopedia project and a transcript of a 1982 seminar for Atari Research featuring Charles Van Doren. Check the show notes for those links.   After Atari, Bob was co-founder of The Criterion Collection, which restores and distributes important classic films; and co-founder of The Voyager Company, the first commercial multimedia CD-ROM publisher. In 2004, he co-founded The Institute for the Future of the Book, a think tank "investigating the evolution of discourse as it shifts from printed pages to networked screens."   This interview took place December 16, 2023.   Video version of this interview at YouTube   The Atari Drawings   ANTIC Interview 420 - Brenda Laurel, Atari Research   Whither The Encyclopedia Project - Atari Encyclopedia Project memos   Back to the Future -- In honor of Encyclopedia Britannica giving up its print edition (Wayback machine)   Stein Kay Atari Memos Pt 1   Stein Kay Atari Memos Pt 2   Exchange With Steve Weyer And J.

How will the 2024 election affect the economy, the markets, the deficits, and your wallet? Our favorite economist is back on the podcast for a third time with his straightforward opinions!    Bob Stein is the Deputy Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, where he's responsible for commenting on and forecasting the U.S. economy.    In this Off the Wall discussion, Bob shares his thoughts and predictions for the 2024 electoral races for the House, Senate and White House, and their impacts on the American people.    Bob breaks down the scenarios and possible outcomes for the election, including what would happen in a parallel universe (thanks for the fun prompt, Dave). So, buckle up and get ready for some ponder-worthy possibilities!    “As of today, the one thing I can tell you for sure is that my odds will change between now and Election Day, maybe multiple times, maybe by dinner tonight. But as of right now, I think Donald Trump has about a 60% chance of winning. Harris only 40.” – Bob Stein    Episode Timeline/Key Highlights:  [00:00] Introducing Bob Stein & the topic of today's episode.  [02:28] What is the likely outcome of the House election and how will it impact the US economy?  [04:06] Will Hakeem Jeffries become speaker of the House and a presidential candidate for 2028?  [06:48] What is the likely outcome of the Senate election? What are the odds the Democrats take the Senate?  [10:25] If Republicans take the Senate, what impact will it have on the economy, markets, deficit, and people's wallets?  [11:31] Bob's predictions on the 2024 Presidential Election results.  [15:06] If Trump or Harris won, how would it affect the economy, markets, deficits, and people's wallets?  [18:33] If Harris won the election, would tax cuts get extended?  [20:48] Potential outcomes of a red sweep, blue sweep, or divided government.  [23:48] What are the realistic policies being supported by Trump and Harris?  [29:06] Are there any policy ideas that the presidential candidates are putting forward that you think, if it's enacted, would be potentially harmful to the economy or the average American?  [30:07] Potential changes to the Supreme Court after the election.  [33:46] Low probability surprises we could see happen in the 2024 Presidential Election.    Please see important podcast disclosure information at https://monumentwealthmanagement.com/disclosures.      Resources Mentioned:  First Trust: https://www.ftportfolios.com  Listen to our first episode with Bob (Predictions for the Economic & Political Landscape 2022): https://bit.ly/3fU48CH  Listen to our last episode with Bob (2024 Presidential Election Predictions): https://bit.ly/bobstein2  Subscribe to our blog: https://bit.ly/MonumentWealthBlog  Subscribe to Monument #Unfiltered: https://bit.ly/monumentunfiltered    About Bob Stein:  Bob is Deputy Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, L.P., where he is responsible for forecasting the U.S. economy and writing economic commentaries.

On Monday's show: Before President Biden's announcement over the weekend, the last time a sitting U.S. president dropped his re-election bid, he was a Texan. And when Lyndon B.

What in your view is the single biggest whopper of a screwup we've made as a city? Then, columnist Dwight Silverman discusses recent developments in consumer technology, including last week's Crowdstrike glitch that messed with Houston airports, banks, hospitals, and media.And we get an update on the Astros from Jeff Balke.

Bob is back! Robert Stein, Deputy Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, joins us again for our final episode of the year. With the midterms in the rear view and 2023 just around the corner, many people are wondering: What is the 2023 economy going to look like? What can we expect for the 2024 presidential election? Why are gas prices coming down? What can we expect with inflation and the housing market over the next two years? In this episode of Off the Wall, hosts David Armstrong and Jessica Gibbs get Bob's take on the 2022 midterm results and his predictions for a looming 2023 recession and the 2024 presidential election. Bob shares his perspective on who will and will not run for president in 2024, how inflation and home prices will change in 2023, and what changes we can expect in government over the next two years. “I think there's going to be a lot of paralysis on Capitol Hill and spending time on investigations. I'm not pro or con, it's just how they're going to spend their time, looking into various things. There's not going to be a lot of legislation on new territory, whether it's green energy, whether it's tech, whether it's taxes, those bills will not get to the President's desk.”  – Bob Stein Episode Timeline/Key Highlights: [01:15] Introducing Bob Stein & The topics of today's episode.

[09:35] The Democrats' strategy during the primaries to throw money and advertising behind Trump-endorsed candidates [10:36] Bob's thoughts on the Republican presidential run: What chance does Trump have to get nominated? What chance does Ron DeSantis have to get nominated? Are any candidates being overlooked? [14:27] Will Biden run for president again? Will Kamala Harris run again? [15:56] Why is Gavin Newsom so popular? [18:53] Would Biden run with Newsom? [19:54] Taxes, infrastructure, tech, green energy, fuel prices, inflation - Bob's predictions for the future.

And what factors have made polls less reliable recently? Then, we learn about efforts to reduce homelessness among young people.

What does it mean to blaspheme the Holy Spirit? This verse has haunted me forever. But what is Jesus saying in Mark 3? In Episode 7 of Season 2, we explore this challenging text with the help of scholar Bob Stein, who's commentary on Mark was not only influential in understanding this text, but he personally helped model what Jesus was all about. What does it mean to hold space for someone? How do we build a world where love and forgiveness and grace are more prevalent than vengeance and threats and systems of oppression?

The need for retailers to adopt digital technology was unexpectedly accelerated in March 2020 as the world locked down to safeguard public health amidst the global pandemic. With convenience retail stores classified in many countries as an essential service, to supply gas and basic products for consumers, innovative solutions including contactless payments and the ability to pre-order and pre-pay for products became essential to build trust with customers, as the focus on long-term loyalty initiatives became a secondary concern. This short show discusses some of the simple solutions available to retailers at this unprecedented time. Show Notes: 1) Bob Stein 2) Liquid Barcodes

Actor, Singer & more… Lindsey Alley was the child who was delivered the WOW experience from movie musicals and stage musicals, brought to her by parents, who worked in what we now refer to as ‘essential services’. A natural and exceptional performer early on, Lindsey’s getting cast in big stage productions halfway to 10 years old, was essential to her. She also spent her entire childhood - to - adolescence transition and experience, as a staple cast-member on Disney’s sensational and later iconized All new Mickey Mouse Club (1989-1996), and never lost the talent or the passion and ambition! I found it very interesting to hear firsthand, what it’s like to weather the storm of show business from so early in life, and then struggle to self-validate or maintain an ideal sense of worth within it, and throughout the course of one’s life. Lindsey Alley has done it; film, television, YouTube and on and off Broadway in a plethora of plays, musicals and cabaret shows; including her tour-de-force one-woman show “Blood, Sweat and Mouseketears” an up-to-date and living, comedic, chronicle of her journey through that storm; the highs, the lows, Mickey, Marriage, Motherhood… and more! As a theatre lover alone, i’m an enormous fan of Lindsey’s performing ability, showmanship, sense of humour and realness. We have Youtube, and now Covid-19, so I spent an ample amount of time one week, discovering and watching all the videos from “Blood, Sweat and Mouseketears” which I 100% have to see live, now, somehow… as well as Lindsey’s former ongoing video series ‘On The Patio’, the totally real, but seemingly surreal and hilarious conversations between her and her sweet Mother. Was it a ridiculous “hail mary pass” to reach out to such an exemplary talent, let alone one of my favourite Mouseketeers? Yes. Did it end up somehow being a pleasure for us both!?

I speak to librarian, games critic, and blogger Phil Salvador about his website http://obscuritory.com/ (The Obscuritory) and his research and writing on games unplayed and unknown. In a far-reaching interview, conducted in late February, 2020 (and thus before the full brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic hit the West), we explore the challenges, rewards, and lessons we've each found in writing about little-known areas of games history, as well as the importance of being kind and much, much more. This is the third entry in a new series of interviews I'm running alongside the main show — every month(ish) I'll talk to a different person who's exploring games history, in one way or another, to learn about the many ways people are preserving the games industry's past as well as to further our understanding of how this wonderful medium (and the industry that's built around it) has come to be the way it is now. Follow the http://127.0.0.1:50886/episodes/files/tag-games-history-explorers.html ("games history explorers") tag or the http://127.0.0.1:50886/episodes/files/category-interviews.html (Interviews) category on http://lifeandtimes.games (my website) to see them all.

Former Golden Gopher football legend Bob Stein talks about his time playing for the U of M and interactions w/ Sid.

We use rituals to mark the early stages of our lives, like birthdays and graduations -- but what about our later years? In this meditative talk about looking both backward and forward, Bob Stein proposes a new tradition of giving away your things (and sharing the stories behind them) as you get older, to reflect on your life so far and open the door to whatever comes next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Wir nutzen Bräuche, um frühe Phasen unseres Lebens zu markieren, wie Geburtstage und Abschlüsse, aber was ist mit den späteren Jahren? In diesem nachdenklichen Vortrag über Rückblick und Voraussicht im Leben, stellt Bob Stein ein neues Ritual vor, um alte Dinge wegzugeben und deren Geschichten zu teilen. Es stellt eine Möglichkeit der Reflektion des eigenen Lebens im Alter dar und öffnet neue Türen für das, was noch kommen mag.

Usamos rituales para marcar las primeras etapas de nuestras vidas, como cumpleaños y graduaciones, pero ¿qué hay de nuestros últimos años? En esta charla meditativa sobre mirar al pasado y al futuro, Bob Stein propone una nueva tradición de dar tus cosas (y compartir las historias detrás de ellas) a medida que envejeces, para reflejar tu vida hasta el momento y abrir la puerta a lo que viene.

Les rituels marquent nos premières étapes dans la vie : les anniversaires, les cérémonies de remise de diplôme. Mais qu'en est-il de notre fin de vie ? Dans ce discours méditatif qui observe notre passé et notre avenir, Bob Stein propose une nouvelle tradition : faire don des choses (et partager nos histoires) au fur et à mesure que nous vieillissons, pour faire l'introspection de notre vie et ouvrir les portes de ce qui nous arrivera après.

Usamos rituais para marcar as fases iniciais de nossas vidas, como aniversários e formaturas, mas e para nossa vida tardia? Nesta palestra introspectiva sobre olhar tanto para trás como adiante, Bob Stein propõe uma nova tradição de presentear suas coisas (e compartilhar as narrativas por trás delas) enquanto envelhece, para refletir sobre sua vida até agora e abrir uma porta para tudo que vier.

우리는 생일이나 졸업과 같은 인생의 초기 단계를 축하하기 위해 기념식을 합니다. 하지만 우리 노년은 어떨까요? 과거와 미래를 넘나드는 깊은 생각을 들려주는 이 강연에서, 밥 스테인은 새로운 전통을 제안합니다. 나이를 먹고 나서 물건을 타인에게 나눠 주고, 그 물건에 얽힌 이야기도 공유하면서 지금까지의 삶을 돌아보고 이후에 찾아 올 새로운 인생의 문을 엽니다.

This week, Mike and Ann are joined by LRB’s favorite accordion enthusiast and Appalachian clogger Bob Stein. After Mike and Bob compare their summers (Bob’s was better), we hold the ceremonial unboxing of a Wagon Full of Loot. Then, we dive into the recap of last week’s TBTL, which may or may not have been swass, depending on which definition you want to use. We come up with a new, more useful hurricane-naming system, introduce a new segment called, “Old Man Stein Yells at Clouds”, and elaborate on the perils of telling someone they look like Bobby Hill. Mike knows the real reason we hit the snooze button on World War III, and Ann is forced to use the term “fecal material” far too many times. Plus, Bob floats an Up with People conspiracy theory for the ages.
