Back in 2011, a landmark study by the United Nations Population Fund warned that the global population would reach 15 billion by the end of the century, “putting a catastrophic strain on the planet's resources unless urgent action is taken to curb growth rates.”Cue lots of subsidies, initiatives, hand-wringing, wasted money, damaging narratives, damaging policy, and articles in the Guardian.Here we are today, and suddenly the issue is population decline. By 2100, 97% of the world's countries will have a shrinking population, according to a study published in The Lancet, leading to “staggering social change”. The Telegraph followed with a ludicrously sensationalist headline: "World population to fall for the first time since the Black Death."Cue, no doubt, lots more subsidies, initiatives, hand-wringing, wasted money, damaging narratives, damaging policy, though, perhaps not so many articles in the Guardian. The last thing that publication wants is westerners reproducing. Not white ones, anyway.The problem is economic modelling. It is wrong as often as it is right. Tossing a coin or consulting a psychic is just as reliable. Economic models commonly rely on extrapolating trends, which can work for a bit - trend-following is a highly effective investment strategy, after all - but they are largely based on the assumption that current conditions will persist, when they usually don't, particularly when projecting decades out. Something unforeseen happens, such as lots of people making decisions an economist didn't expect, and this changes everything.Yet such flawed models, even though nothing more than projections that only carry more weight than Mystic Meg because they were delivered on a spreadsheet by a bloke with a PhD, become the basis for huge and expensive decisions by policymakers. We have seen it with climate change, with Covid, with economic policy, and with anything the OBR touches. The consequences are sometimes really harmful to people: lockdown policy being the most obvious recent example. It was based on flawed data and it was deeply destructive. Net Zero is the next one. Everyone can see it, yet still policy-makers persist.I was, broadly speaking, persuaded in the early 00s by the arguments that population growth was inevitable. I am less persuaded by the idea that we will now see population decline, though perhaps I shouldn't be. Fertility rates are coming down: globally, between 1950 and 2021, they fell by more than half: from 4.8 children to 2.2 - and there is not a nation where they haven't fallen. Annual global births peaked at 142 million in 2016, falling to 129 million by 2021.But whatever. Nobody knows what's going to happen. There could be a nuclear war and the population might sink below a billion. Global planning laws could be eased, just as the world abandons fiat money for gold and bitcoin, with the result that house prices come down, just as people realize that seed oils, processed food, and tap water have all been making them infertile, and, as a result, we suddenly get a population boom. So much of this is economic. In Developing Countries, people tend to have fewer children as they get richer and live longer. Irony of ironies, in the richer, Developed World, the main reason people have fewer children is that they can't afford them. Italians, being Catholic, are associated with large families and lots of brothers, sisters and cousins. But when Elon Musk, himself a prolific reproducer, observed yesterday that Italian birth rates hit their lowest level since the country was unified in 1861, he got this reply: The main reason people are not reproducing is expense. What is the biggest expense in your life? Your government. It takes roughly 50% of everything you will ever earn. The next biggest expense is a house, something few can afford. With less government and cheaper housing, westerners would pretty quickly start reproducing again. What government is going to stand for less of itself and cheaper houses? Not one that I can see, except maybe in Argentina.The idea that government is going to fix a problem of its own creation. Please. It will only make it worse. I do know that stuff often happens for reasons we can't explain, so the last thing we want is the planners meddling, especially with something as significant as this, when their models are so flawed. It doesn't matter if the global population goes up or down; human beings will find a way of coping. We always do. The last thing we need is more government intervention based on spurious data.So what if growth falls? GDP growth is a bogus measure, anyway. Dimwitted, short-sighted obsession with GDP has been one of the major reasons mass immigration has gone so unchecked, if not encouraged, with such terrible consequences to local culture, history, and tradition, never mind locals' opportunity and earnings.GDP focuses on quantity not quality. It neglects individual quality of life. It ignores income and wealth distribution. It ignores unaffordable housing and high levels of taxation (if anything high house prices are seen as a good thing). It creates societies based around spending and consumption, rather than making stuff and saving. It incentivises government activity - please, no more intervention - and short-termism. There are other better measures. Or, better still, take the John James Cowperthwaite positive non-intervention route and ban the Office of National Statistics altogether. The Returning Soldier Effect.After World War One - itself a monumental government cock-up - which saw the death of countless young men across Europe, the number of boys born relative to girls increased. It happened after World War Two as well. This phenomenon has been noticed so many times after wars that it now has its own name: the Returning Soldier Effect.All sorts of explanations have been posited, ranging from changing female hormones during wartime to divine intervention to a surprisingly persuasive argument that "taller soldiers are more likely to survive battle and that taller parents are more likely to have sons". On the other hand, it could just be Mother Nature. There is plenty that Mother Nature gets up to that we don't even notice, let alone find a credible and proven explanation for. Yet she determines much of what we do, without us even realising it.Our instincts come from Mother Nature. Our first instinct is survival: to find water, food, and shelter, for ourselves and then those close to us. Next is the survival of the species: the urge to have sex and reproduce with the best possible mate. These instincts come before nice houses, cars, and clothes. But even the urge for those derives from a need for safety and to make ourselves look more desirable to a potential mate - aka Mother Nature. We are animals.At the birth of my children, I came away with the thought that a woman is nature's vessel, subservient to the species as a whole.So back to population levels: it really would not surprise me to discover that some kind of Natural Law is at work, in the same way that plants talk to each other, and it will deal with the population issue way better than any government. But even if not, the human population will be what it is as a result of a plethora of individual decisions, many of which will be guided by Mother Nature, and many of which by economic circumstance. As the great man Cowperthwaite set, “A multiplicity of individual decisions will produce a better and wiser result than a single decision by a Government or by a board with its inevitably limited knowledge of the myriad factors involved, and its inflexibility.”So please let's keep Positive Law and meddlesome planners with flawed models out of this.My first book, and many readers' favourite, Life After the State - Why We Don't Need Government (2013), which fell out of print last year, is now, thanks to the invaluable help of my new buddy Chris P, back in print (Amazon, Apple Books), with the audiobook here:Audible UKAudible USApple Books And if you are in the Guildford neck of the woods this Friday, there are still some tickets left to my show, which, among other things, will feature me playing Elon Musk's new favourite song.

It is a pleasure to welcome actor Cameron Cowperthwaite as my guest on this year's Halloween edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. Cameron has appeared on several television series such as Animal Kingdom, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders, Shameless, Station 19, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. However, Cameron is most recognizable to American Horror Story fans for two of his stints on the horror drama franchise. First, Cameron portrayed Speed Wagon in American Horror Story: Cult. Speed Wagon was a foot solider in Kai Anderson (played by Evan Peters)'s sadistic Fear is Truth (FIT) cult. Eventually, he was discovered as a mole by Ally Mayfair-Richards (played by Sarah Paulson), who fatally stabbed him. His second appearance in the franchise happened during “Necro,” the seventh episode in American Horror Stories' sophomore season. His character, Charlie, works as a body removal technician for a morgue who has intense conversations in the afterlife with a mortician named Sam (played by Madison Iseman). In addition to working on the American Horror Story franchise, Cameron can also be seen in the 2018 mystery thriller Pledge, short films such as Brotherhood, Illegal, and Rocket Man and portrayed Steven Hicks in the Netflix mini-series: Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffery Dahmer Story. In the Halloween edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Cameron Cowperthwaite spoke about working on American Horror Story: Cult with franchise mainstays Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters. He also shared about his favorite Halloween traditions.

Coagusense developed the first point-of-care prothrombin time/Internationalized Normalized Ratio (PT/INR) monitoring system for cardiac patients to help them maintain warfarin dosage within a therapeutic range. In the latest version of their device, they actually removed connectivity features to accommodate the needs of their older, less-tech-savvy self-testers. Therefore, they had to go back to the FDA with more bench data for re-approval. Andy Rogers talked with Mike Acosta, EVP/Head of Compliance at Coagusense, and later recapped some of the lessons learned with Senior Electrical Engineer Jake Cowperthwaite. Andy and Jake have an informative discussion about how to define performance requirements when you're aiming for FDA approval.Need to know:Make sure the performance requirement is objectively verifiable by a measurable test result, functional demonstration of performance, simulation analysis, and/or visual inspection.Plan for the number of prototypes you'll need to create confidence in your statistics. Large companies may have their own internal mechanism to create a plan. Startups can consult with the FDA. Understand the regulatory considerations for seamless FDA approval.  It's a good idea to meet with the FDA prior to submission to outline your requirements. The earlier you have regulatory buy-in, the better.The nitty gritty:Rule Number One is to make sure that the performance of the device is objectively verifiable. For example, simply stating “the device shall be easy to use” is vague and subjective and won't cut it with the FDA. Write your requirement in a way that can be verified through: testing and measuring results, a functional demonstration of performance, analysis via calculations or simulations, or visual inspection. A well-written requirement is specific with clear criteria, for example if your product was a pump, a performance requirement could be: “the aspiration pump shall have X flow rate within Y bounds”. If it meets that requirement, you're ready to move on. Don't over-spec.Three things the FDA is looking for: Above all, efficacy and safety Accuracy Is your device novel technology or based on a predicate device? At the test bench, start with a good understanding of how many prototypes you'll need to have statistical confidence in your results. Sample size will depend on the data needed; an on/off switch won't require a large sample size, but testing with different operators – as with in-home devices – will need a substantial data set.In some cases, it's possible to short-cut the process early in development by testing multiple variables at once. This will yield a lot of data, which can then be analyzed. You'll find some variables meaningful and others not, but understanding these variables and their sensitivity early in product development has great value and can save money in producing fewer prototypes.USEFUL LINKShttps://coag-sense.com/about-us/https://www.greenlight.guru/

As much as we actors wish it wasn't so, auditioning really is our job. Performing it's just an added perk, if we do that job really well. That being said though, there are times when we mail an audition and simply couldn't have done any better, yet we still don't book the part. Such is the life and labor of an actor.

When it comes to “making it” as a performer onstage or on screen, it's usually as an actor, singer, or dancer.  Most people tend to gravitate toward the one(s) they're most comfortable with and can truly express their artistry. Barton Cowperthwaite is a dancer first and foremost, with performances ranging from the opera La Traviata to Travis Wall's Shaping Sound dance tour. The esteemed choreographer Lar Lubovitch describes Barton as a “movement poet” and credits him with having what he calls musical visualization. “Rather than hearing the music, this kind of dancer has the impression of being the music.” But Barton has also been singing the music as well in productions at City Center Encores and in the national tour of American in Paris. He's also been exercising his acting chops in a few movies and of course in his breakout role of Oren in the Netflix series Tiny Pretty Things. Through all of it, Barton has proven he's much more than just a good mover and a pretty face. In this conversation, he shares both the joys and disappointments of working on a hit TV show that ended up being canceled, he opens up about realizing his own weaknesses as a performer and needing to constantly work at improving his abilities, and he talks about the time he went on for the lead role in An American in Paris with just 15 minutes notice.  Learn more about WINMI Podcast at whyillnevermakeit.com  Subscribe to WINMI and get access to Bonus Episodes on Supercast  Donate to the production efforts in making this podcast Follow Why I'll Never Make It on Instagram or Twitter  Get a free copy of WINMI's collection of Creative Wisdom    Ljósið (The Light) from Cylan Shaffer Before there was American in Paris, before Tiny Pretty Things, Barton was cast as the lead dancer in a wordless and moving piece from filmmaker Cylan Shaffer. It tells the story of a man who desires to overcome the restraint of his fears and then embarks on a journey towards discovery. Ljósið is an extraordinary performance piece of stunning emotion as two dancers (including Brandon Coleman) explore the boundaries of loss, love, denial, and acceptance. Watch it here.     Tiny Pretty Things Explores Sexuality on Netflix Fans of this show were ravenous in their love and affection for these characters. One such fan created a compilation video which highlights one of Barton's more vulnerable and intimate storylines in the show -- his character's relationship with Shane (Brennan Clost). Watch it here.     Final Five with Barton Cowperthwaite After our conversation on the joys of dancing and the struggles of being seen as more than just a dancer, Barton answers five final questions on the inspirations and advice he's received throughout his time onstage and onscreen.

Neil Monnery, author of Architect of Prosperity, talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about his book--a biography of John Cowperthwaite, the man often credited with the economic success of Hong Kong. Monnery describes the policies that Cowperthwaite championed and the role they played in the evolution of Hong Kong's economy. How much those policies mattered is the focus of the conversation. Other topics include the relationship between Hong Kong and China and the irony of the challenges Hong Kong faced from U.S. and British protectionism.

How did Hong Kong rise to prominence as a hub of global commerce? Neil Monnery is author of Architect of Prosperity: Sir John Cowperthwaite and the Making of Hong Kong. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

At the end of the Second World War, Hong Kong lived up to its description as “the barren island.” It had few natural resources, its trade and infrastructure lay in tatters, its small manufacturing base had been destroyed, and its income per capita was less than a quarter of its mother country, Britain. But by the time of the handover of Hong Kong to China in 1997, it was one of the most prosperous nations on Earth. By 2015, its GDP per capita was more than 40 percent higher than Britain’s. How did that happen? Around the world, postwar governments turned to industrial planning, Keynesian deficits, and high inflation to stimulate their economies. The government of Hong Kong rejected this emerging global consensus. The colony’s laissez-faire policies were implemented by a handful of civil servants, the most important of whom was John Cowperthwaite, deputy and then Financial Secretary of the colony between 1951 and 1971. He, more than anyone, shaped the economic policies of Hong Kong and set the stage for the territory’s remarkable transformation.

Movie Meltdown - Episode 256 This week, we'll be talking about the documentary "Blackfish"... and all the questions and controversy that surround it. The 2013 film follows the story of Tilikum, a whale captured and eventually sent to perform at Sea World. The massive creature is responsible for several deaths over the years and we examine just who is to blame... the whale, his trainers or the corporation that runs the whole operation. The film touches on a lot of different issues and leads to some pretty interesting conversations.   And as we return to the coffee shop for another one of our traumatizing underwater adventures, we also discuss… L. Ron Hubbard, Humphrey Bogart, Man of Steel, how we deal with the homeless, banal and tedious, animals eating junk food, emitting a sound that had never been heard before, corporate corruption, animal incest, panda bears, Stockholm syndrome, Gentleman Broncos, a profound instinct for vengeance, cheesy 70's animal attack films, Jack Hanna, nature's arms race, preserving species, a coffee and pizza place, Superman in Mandarin, animal cruelty in film, grizzled Lucy, the first ever Christmas movie that I've disliked, the Beijing Zoo, Cary Grant, sent off to writer's camp, Sam Rockwell, Terence Stamp, being driven by greed and Dino De Laurentiis. Spoiler Alert: Spoilers for real life. Watch this documentary before you listen, or we may just spoil real life for you. You have been warned. "My mom actually called me after it aired on CNN, practically in tears, and apologized for ever having taken me there as a child."

Lewis leads Caitlin, Cat, Charley and Laura in a discussion on the new documentary film Blackfish (2013), directed by Gabriela Cowperthwaite. Doing their best not to descend into condemnations of Sea World, they discuss the film's fusion of documentary conventions with elements from horror and thriller genres, relating it to other contemporary documentaries and to postmodern film genres more generally.

In this episode... We revisit some of the topics Eric & I talked about nearly 2 years ago at ISSA International, Baltimore. Eric discusses the paradigm shift that needs to happen in security We talk about shifting resources (in the defensive) from "everything" to something more reasonable Eric and I discuss how CISOs must re-allocate resources to survive in a post-breach reality Guest Eric Cowperthwaite ( @e_cowperthwaite ) - Vice President, Advanced Security and Strategy at CORE Security, a Boston-based security vendor.

NOTE: This is the archived podcast of our interview. Please do not call in. Thank you for listening! Last Friday, August 2, 2013, we were honored to have interviewed Gabriela Cowperthwaite, the director of the Sundance Film Festival favorite documentary, Blackfish. The movie is about Tilikum, the SeaWorld killer whale favorite who has been involved in several deaths over the years, including that of trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010.  The movie's release forced SeaWorld to issue a response, which -- in light of the damning facts and footage in the film about how cetaceans are ripped from their families and social groups and forced to live and train in cramped, artificial conditions, essentailly in servitude in the name of entertainment -- could only charitably be described as both ineffectual and weak.  Listen to our rebroadcast of our interview with Ms. Cowperthwaite, and then head over to their website to find out if the film is being shown at a theater near you.

Synopsis LIVE from day 2 of the ISSA International conference 2012, in Anaheim, California I cornered Eric Cowperthwaite after a much-anticipated year-long wait... and we talked about his prediction that in the next 2 years many of the traditional IT employees will be employed as either business-IT resources in the enterprise, or IT-technical resources at an IT outsource or cloud provider... Eric's predictions tend to be right on the money so it'll be interesting if some of the things he advocates in this microcast come true!  Only time will tell. Guest Eric Cowperthwaite - Eric is the Chief Security Officer at Providence Health & Services, and a strong advocate of pragmatic security.  Eric has a long history from Army Recruiter, to outsource services delivery with EDS, to his many years of service to the ISSA and Providence Health & Services.  In addition to being a good friend and colleague, Eric has a snarky sense of humor, and tends to be not afraid of speaking his mind ... and as it turns out his predictions become reality in the near future.  Eric can be found on Twitter as @e_cowperthwaite, and on LinkedIn.
