Doomscrolling: The Flattened Schizophrenic Matrix Niles Heckman Download Doomscrolling is the act of spending an excessive amount of time on digital content that elicits negative emotion and it is metaphysically grotesque. One can take the most extraordinary instrument ever devised for the circulation of human thought, and reduce it to a slot machine for anxiety.This “flattened schizophrenic scroll matrix” highlights that the problem isn't simply that you're looking at too much information but that the information has been stripped of scale, context, sequence, and consequence. Headlines, gossip, scandals, recipes, culinary photos, so so memes, lukewarm jokes, arguments between strangers - hundreds of realities without inhabiting any of them. All of which arrive through essentially the same little rectangular aperture. And then you scroll it. These insight sub-episodes are mirrored on our primary YouTube channel which can be found at https://www.youtube.com/@NilesHeckman/videos

【聊了什么The What】 克里斯托弗·诺兰的《奥德赛》已成为2026年无可争议的文化现象，我们也从书柜的角落里把奥德赛淘了出来。这期节目我们对比了3000年前的荷马文本与2026年的好莱坞叙事——这究竟是对荷马史诗的忠实改编，还是诺兰式的现代男性忏悔录？本期《疲惫娇娃》，我们聊了聊Emily Wilson译本中那个复杂的男人如何被马特·达蒙演绎成了稳重的中年大哥，探讨了佩内洛普、喀耳刻等女性角色在诺兰镜头下如何变得薄如纸片。为何诺兰总是执着于拍“做错事的男人”在内心博弈，而忽视了受害者应有的分量？为何马特·达蒙的脸让人想投他一票，却消解了原作中骗子英雄的油腻感？ Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey has become the undisputed cultural phenomenon of 2026, so we dug our own copy of the Odyssey out of the corner of the bookshelf. This episode compares Homer's 3,000-year-old text with Hollywood's 2026 retelling — is this a faithful adaptation of the epic, or a Nolan-style confession of modern masculinity? On this episode of 疲惫娇娃CyberPink, we talk about how the complicated man of Emily Wilson's translation became a reliable middle-aged PTSD vet, and how female characters like Penelope and Circe turn paper-thin under Nolan's lens. Why is Nolan forever fixated on the inner struggles of "men who did something wrong," while giving the victims none of the weight they deserve? And why does Matt Damon's face make you want to vote for him — while dissolving the sleazy, trickster-hero quality of the original? 【时间轴 The When】 02:23 - 《奥德赛》剧情概览：奥德修斯的长路与归乡 05:47 - 工业电影的诚意：演员在船上泡了四个月的真实质感 14:41 - 导演的作者权力：从《奥本海默》的成功到《奥德赛》的空白支票 22:22 - 作为流动的西方正典，为何翻译即创造 39:01 - 独眼巨人Polyphemus：动作奇观对叙事复杂性的牺牲 50:01 - 核心主题：宙斯法则（Xenia）与当代社会对他者的恐惧 62:35 - 麦特·达蒙的“好人脸”与奥德修斯的油腻感 69:34 - 艾略特·佩吉的角色与跨性别政治的潜文本 74:51 - 纸面化的女性群像：喀耳刻、卡吕普索与佩内洛普的改编缺憾 89:01 - 王子成长记：荷兰弟饰演的忒勒马科斯带来的日常温情 100:34 - 尾声：在台下传纸条的听众比老师的课堂更重要 02:23 — The Odyssey plot overview: Odysseus's long road home 05:47 — The sincerity of industrial filmmaking: four months of actors actually soaking on a boat 14:41 — The director as author: from the success of Oppenheimer to the blank check of The Odyssey 22:22 — The Western canon as something fluid, and why translation is creation 39:01 — Polyphemus the Cyclops: action spectacle at the cost of narrative complexity 50:01 — Core theme: the law of Zeus (xenia) and contemporary society's fear of the other 62:35 — Matt Damon's "good guy face" vs. Odysseus's sleaziness 69:34 — Elliot Page's role and the subtext of trans politics 74:51 — Flattened women: what the adaptation loses in Circe, Calypso, and Penelope 89:01 — A prince grows up: the everyday warmth Tom Holland brings to Telemachus 100:34 — Closing: the audience passing notes in the back row matters more than the teacher's lecture 【拓展链接 The Links】 Instagram上跨性别权益倡导者@justflintisfine对奥德赛的点评 译者对诺兰奥德赛的批评 An Uncomplicated Man Elliot Page的专访 Elliot Page Is Ready for This Moment The Penelopiad Middle-Aged Matt Damon is Your Guy What Translator Emily Wilson Thinks of Christopher Nolan's ‘The Odyssey' Why ‘The Odyssey' Is the West's Greatest Story 【买咖啡 Please Support Us】 如果喜欢这期节目并愿意想要给我们买杯咖啡： 海外用户：https://www.patreon.com/cyberpinkfm 海内用户：https://afdian.com/a/cyberpinkfm 商务合作邮箱：cyberpinkfm@gmail.com 商务合作微信：CyberPink2022 If you like our show and want to support us, please consider the following: Those Abroad: https://www.patreon.com/cyberpinkfm Those in China: https://afdian.com/a/cyberpinkfm Business Inquiries Email: cyberpinkfm@gmail.com Business Inquiries WeChat: CyberPink2022

Episode 271

A familiar Nations Championship story for the Wallabies, who started brilliantly in Brisbane before being run down by an excellent France side in Brisbane. Geoff Parkes joins Brett McKay from Suncorp Stadium on the 8/9 Rugby Post Mortem to run through the tale of the tape. Winning their first game in Brisbane in 54 years, Les Bleus found themselves on the receiving end of a truly excellent first half from the Wallabies, before drawing level early in the second half and taking the game completely into their control thereafter. It's left the Wallabies lamenting yet another game that's got away from them, and now having to go all in on Italy in Perth next weekend. #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Rugby #AustraliavFrance #AUSvFRA #Wallabies #NationsChampionship Find us on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever else you get your podcasts Social media: search for ‘8/9 Rugby' on Twitter, Bluesky, LinkedIn, and on Instagram, too And please do check out and subscribe to 8/9 Rugby on Substack: https://89rugby.substack.com/ Find Brett on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport Music: "Up Above" by Letter Box (via YouTube Creator Studio) Learn more about your ad choices.

We start off fighting with a cheap plastic recorder that won’t cooperate and complaining about all the trash showing up now that the snow is melting. Then things take a hard turn when we talk about the morning we found a stranger sitting on our living room couch at 5:30 AM. That moment changes how we see our own habits. Leaving the doors unlocked used to feel normal, even harmless. After that morning, it feels careless, and we end up installing an auto-locking digital system. One unexpected person on a couch is enough to turn a casual routine into a security upgrade. From there, we wander into some childhood memories—like techniques for flattening hamsters and lizards. It’s uncomfortable and a little funny in hindsight, but mostly it’s about how small mistakes had very real results. We also talk about AI, comparing it to a nervous friend who sounds confident but gets things wrong. That leads us into a debate about the tangled timeline in Primer and how some kids somehow guess the twist in The Sixth Sense right away. We wrap up by unpacking why hearing “you did your best” can feel like a quiet insult—like the recorder that won’t play right, the door that now locks itself, and the headlamp shining on a problem we didn’t want to see.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!What do we mean when we speak of human experience?In this fourth installment of the Radically Personal series, Jerry Martin takes up that question and follows it carefully. Modern philosophy and science often frame experience in terms of sensations, data, or brain activity. Yet the way we actually live and perceive suggests something more expansive.Drawing on William James, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Hilary Putnam, Martin Buber, Edith Stein, and others, Jerry reflects on how we encounter the world in practice. He considers perception and embodiment, the depth present in persons and things, the pull of beauty and awe, and the way empathy makes another's inner life accessible.The discussion gradually turns toward love and value, tracing how worth emerges within experience itself. As the episode moves from perception to relationship to meaning, a picture comes into view: depth is not added from outside but belongs to experience as lived.Join Jerry in taking experience seriously; it may open new ways of thinking about meaning, reality, and the possibility of the divine.Get the books: Radically Personal: God and Ourselves in the New Axial Age | God: An Autobiography, As Told to a PhilosopherOther Series:The podcast began with the Dramatic Adaptation of the book and now has several series:Radically Personal: Reflections on lived experience, divine encounter, and personal vocation, drawing on a seeker-centered approach to spirituality in a new Axial Age.From God to Jerry to You: Divine messages and breakthroughs for seekers.Jerry & Abigail: An Intimate Dialogue: Love, faith, and divine presence in partnership.What's Your Spiritual Story: Real stories of people changed by encounters with God.What's On Our Mind: Reflections from Jerry and Scott on recent episodes.Two Philosophers Wrestle With God: A dialogue on God, truth, and reason.The Life Wisdom Project: Spiritual insights on living a wiser, more meaningful life.What's On Your Mind: Listener questions, divine answers, and open dialogue. Stay Connected: questions@godanautobiography.comShare Your Story | Site | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube

Send us a textLayoffs, chips, and a lobster-shaped lesson in security—this month's news run is a tour of how tech's biggest bets collide with real-world constraints. We start with Amazon's plan to complete 30,000 job cuts under the banner of “flattening the org.” That might clean up charts, but it also stretches managers thin and risks slowing the very decisions teams need to ship. The human cost is harder to quantify than a balance sheet win, and we unpack where productivity gains end and morale debt begins.From there, we get into Microsoft's Maya 200 inference chip and why efficiency is the story to watch. Performance per dollar, power budgets, and inference at scale matter more than leaderboard sprints. If the claims hold up outside marketing decks, Maya points to a future where better throughput and lower costs beat raw hype. We also dive into Satya Nadella's push to retire “AI slop” and think of these systems as scaffolding for human potential—useful framing for knowledge work, but incomplete for roles where augmentation often previews automation. It's the tension shaping careers, budgets, and product choices across the stack.We pivot to enterprise infrastructure with Nutanix's slower-than-expected VMware migrations. Even when customers want options, they face real friction: tooling parity, skill gaps, data gravity, and the risk of moving mission-critical workloads without bulletproof rollback. The lesson is pragmatic—platforms don't win on promises, they win on migration paths that reduce toil and make costs predictable.And then there's Moltbot, the rebranded assistant formerly known as Clawdbot, which sparked a security backlash and a reminder that agents touching calendars, email, and payments need guardrails before cleverness. Limit scopes, sandbox actions, cap spend, log everything. AI that touches real life must be boringly safe before it's impressive.If this breakdown helped you cut through the noise, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review.

Building franchise relationships isn't about brand standards — it's about listening, flexibility, and time in the field. That idea sits at the center of this episode of #NoVacancyNews. I'm in Massachusetts at the global headquarters of Sonesta International Hotels, talking with Phil Hugh, Chief Development Officer. Phil walks through how stepping into the CDO role pushed him out of the office and onto the road for roughly 60 days, visiting properties, meeting with owners, and seeing firsthand what it actually takes to operate hotels across the economy, midscale, and upscale segments. What comes through clearly is how Sonesta has changed how it shows up for owners — from flattening its organization to putting real focus behind Americas Best Value Inn, refining its portfolio, and structuring franchise agreements around long-term success instead of short-term wins. We cover:

President Trump is playing Santa Claus this year, and Democrats are once again stapled to the naughty list. But let's be clear. This isn't the ho-ho-ho Santa. This is Santa after a triple espresso, carrying a clipboard, and asking pointed questions about where the money went.And judging by the wreckage, it wasn't Santa who got run over by a reindeer. It was the Democrats. Flattened. Antlers everywhere. Sleigh marks leading straight back to accountability.Forget a lump of coal. Trump put Democrats' coal on a conveyor belt and fed it directly into their stockings like he's firing up a steel mill. This is industrial punishment, OSHA-approved, with a grin that says, you earned every ounce of this.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Digital platforms promised us personalization but their algorithms homogenized culture to a bland lowest common denominator instead.They don't just influence what we consume, they also determine what is produced as artists shape their output to fit what gets seen and what gets shared.My guest today traced this creeping, machine-guided curation as it infiltrated the furthest reaches of our digital, physical, and psychological spaces. And he has a few ideas for escaping it that might surprise you.Kyle Chayka joined me to talk about how digital algorithms work, why they flatten culture and how to take back control of our own taste.

  Hey, hey, hey – welcome back to Design for the Creative Mind! This season, we're talking all about rookie mistakes and real talk – the stuff that's keeping so many talented designers stuck. And today? We're hitting a big one: shopping retail. Yep. I'm talking about that habit of ordering from Pottery Barn, HomeGoods, or West Elm, skipping your trade vendors, and sending clients links instead of curated presentations. Sound familiar? I get it. I've been there myself—and I've coached hundreds of designers who've struggled with the same thing. Whether it's the fear of clients balking at markups, the desire to be “helpful,” or the looming fear of liability… retail feels like the easy button. But babe—it's not. It's costing you big time. What I cover in this episode: Why retail shopping chips away at your profits, your positioning, and your authority How sending links is training your clients to bypass you Why markup is NOT a dirty word (and how to confidently talk about profit) Real talk from a designer named Lindsay who learned this the hard way The difference between being a personal shopper vs. a professional designer How to shift your business model so sourcing becomes a strength—not a stressor The mindset shift that leads to a more profitable, scalable, and luxury-level business Here's the truth: when you rely on retail, you lose control—of the quality, of the client experience, and of your income. Your design becomes replicable. Your service looks DIY. And your value? Flattened. But when you embrace trade sourcing, you gain back authority, margin, and process. And yes, you can absolutely educate your clients about it without apologizing. So ask yourself: where are you defaulting to retail out of fear or convenience? And what would shift—financially, creatively, emotionally—if you trusted yourself to lead like a CEO?   You're not selling stuff. You're selling an experience. A transformation. A feeling when someone walks into a room and says “Wow.” And that? That's worth protecting.

This week: A controversial house in Wellfleet, threatening to fall into Cape Cod Bay, gets demolished. Pocasset Mental Health Center is spared for now, as Governor Healey acknowledges a Cape community outcry. And the rising cost of homeowners insurance is making for some painful choices.

Kyle Chayka joins Ravi to discuss his book, Filterworld, an exploration of how algorithms shape our world and influence culture. They dive into how algorithms dictate our tastes, homogenize cultural experiences, and replace human gatekeepers with digital ones. Using coffee shops as a case study, they unpack the concept of aesthetic memes and how algorithm-driven trends spread across industries. The conversation also delves into the evolution of taste in the algorithmic age, from the blending of musical genres to the challenge of finding originality in an increasingly curated digital landscape. Together, they explore what it means to break free from the algorithm and rediscover authentic cultural experiences.

Episode 177: Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada explore the paradox of valuing diversity while facing the erosion of cultural distinctiveness.  "There's a deep incompatibility between two different conceptions of diversity," Kyte said. "Individual diversity requires inclusivity, but group diversity necessitates exclusivity to preserve shared practices and beliefs."  The podcast highlights the alarming statistic that an estimated half of the world's 7,000 languages may disappear within a generation, taking with them the rich cultural knowledge embedded in these tongues.  Rada inquires about the potential benefits and drawbacks of a common global language, highlighting that while it could enhance convenience, it could also result in a world that lacks cultural diversity.  The hosts also discuss the impact of globalization and capitalism on traditional practices, such as the evolution of ethnic restaurants in the United States. As these establishments become more mainstream, they often lose their authentic cultural roots, replaced by standardized menus and business models.  The hosts emphasize the need for a balanced approach, one that preserves communities with distinctive cultural characteristics while also promoting inclusivity.  Links to stories discussed during the podcast Last of their kind: What is lost when cultures die? by Wade Davis, Scientific America Seven unique practices in the world that are dying out: See them before they are gone forever, by Ben Groundwater, The Sydney Morning Herald Before it disappears: recording endangered practices, skills and knowledge, by Nik Petek-Sargeant, The British Museum About the hosts Scott Rada is a digital strategist with Lee Enterprises, and Richard Kyte is the director of the D.B.

What A Rodent Brain Shows Us About Love–And LossLove has the reputation of being a fairly unique human emotion. If we're lucky, we can experience lots of love in our lives: with romantic partners, children, family, friends. But with love comes the possibility of another, less desirable emotion: heartbreak.Neuroscientists at the University of Colorado Boulder have found that these feelings seem to actually leave a mark on the brain, with dopamine and other feel-good chemicals flooding to the brain's reward centers when lovers are reunited.The source for this data may be surprising: prairie voles, tiny rodents that are among the small percentage of mammals that form monogamous pair bonds. By studying their brains when the voles were united with their mates, researchers were able to pinpoint this dopamine flood that they suspect happens in humans' own brains under the same conditions.When the voles were separated for four weeks—long enough for them to consider their pairing “over” and find new mates, the broken-up voles had much more muted dopamine response when reunited. Researchers say that could be good news for heartbroken humans because it shows the brain could have something of a “reset” mechanism that allows individuals to go on and form new bonds.Joining Ira to talk about this research is Dr. Zoe Donaldson, associate professor of behavioral neuroscience at the University of Colorado in Boulder.If You Rolled Colorado Out Into A Brownie, How Big Would It Be?The surface area of Colorado is 104,094 square miles, according to the US Geological Survey, making it the 8th largest state in the country.But the state, unlike our neighbors to the east, has a lot of extra geographical stuff — like mountains.One Coloradan who loves to spend time in those big hills wondered if our dear state wasn't getting a bit short-changed. Denver-based photographer and editor Howard Paul also happens to love baked goods. So when he posed his question to Colorado Wonders, he couldn't help but combine his two passions.Paul had a hunch that such a squishing would make Colorado the largest state in the lower 48. Bigger than Texas. Smaller than Alaska. (For whatever it's worth, this numerically-challenged reporter thought that was an eminently reasonable guess.)The first bit of due diligence was to research if this quandary had been approached before. Well, what do you know, the headline of a March 2005 article from Ski Magazine reads “How big would Colorado be if you steamrolled all of the mountains?”Read the rest on sciencefriday.com.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

"Be prepared to be flattened" (Satire) by Eternal Anti-War Maung Sitt Mone, Loot Latt Nway Oo.This item has files of the following types: Archive BitTorrent, Metadata, VBR MP3

Algorithms are a part of our everyday life, and they help us get more of what we want, right? Well, in Kyle Chayka's new book he argues that this has flattened culture, making the popular things more popular, and the obscure things more obscure. I read his book “Filterworld” during my iPod experiment month. I was feeling frustrated with Spotify's algorithm and decided to listen to music exclusively through an iPod for a month.I loved Kyle's book so much that I had to reach out to talk to him more about it. A clip of this interview appeared in the first video of this iPod month series on Digging The Greats, but today I'm bringing you our full conversation. I loved getting to talk to Kyle, and especially loved his book as it hit the nail on the head. So here's my full interview with Kyle Chayka, author of Filterworld: how algorithms flattened culture.
