Today's episode in our history of revolutionary ideas is about a medieval document that is sometimes thought to contain a ground-breaking promise of basic political rights. David talks to historian Nick Vincent about Magna Carta (1215) and what it did and didn't actually say. Why did the warring parties agree to it? Was it a constitutional charter or a peace treaty? What happened when its terms were broken? And how did it come to acquire the totemic significance it has today?

It wasn't meant to be for Pete Alonso to win a third Home Run Derby title and tie Ken Griffey Jr. in the house that Griffey built. And while Julio Rodríguez eliminated Alonso with that SoDo Mojo, it was Vladimir Guerrero Jr. who got revenge for Rodríguez breaking his single-round record by winning the final. So, let's do Vladito's home run chain.* Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit his first home run off Nick Vincent, 5/14/19* Nick Vincent gave up his first home run to Jason Kubel, 7/3/12* Jason Kubel hit his first home run off Jon Garland, 9/21/04* Jon Garland gave up his first home run to Jermaine Dye, 7/4/00* Jermaine Dye hit his first home run off Marcus Moore, 5/17/96* Marcus Moore gave up his first home run to David Justice, 7/26/93* David Justice hit his first home run off Mike Scott, 9/19/89Mike Scott connects to the Domingo Germán (derogatory) home run chain, which in turn brings us back to the Francisco Álvarez home run chain. Now we understand the bad Mets vibes that much better.And if you're wondering, Iván Nova did give up home runs to both Vladimirs Guerrero, getting tagged twice by Senior in 2011 — the fifth-to-last and second-to-last of the Hall of Famer's career — and for Junior's third, in Chicago, three days after he took both Vincent and Reyes Moronta deep in San Francisco.

Every minute, 990,000 Tinder profiles are swiped, 156 million emails are sent, and 16 million text messages are sent out.Moreover, Google processes 40,000 searches a second and 1.4 billion people log into Facebook every day.We live in a digital economy, and it runs on data!Just think about it, every time you check your Instagram or Twitter feed, Google a new recipe, or search the web for the latest sneaker drop, you are providing tons of data that companies can then leverage to sell you personalized ads, which equals big money. The digital ad revenue business is a whopping $200 billion industry thanks to our generous data contributions.Our guest today is Nicholas Vincent, a post-doc researcher at Northwestern University, who is studying this very interaction between technology and social behavior. Nick is leading the charge to balance the scales between data providers (us) and data brokers (the personal data industry).Nick puts forward the concept: "What if those organizations profiting from your data had to pay you a share of that earning?" These data dividends have been getting a lot of traction, with presidential candidate Andrew Yang launching the Data Dividend Project, which is pushing tech companies to pay users for their data.Additionally, Nick and colleague Hanlin Li are suggesting new ways to address the power imbalance:

Technology has already come after several blue collar jobs of the past, like assembly line workers, cashiers, phone operators, and travel agents, to name a few.But is it possible for AI to automate and replace the job of a software engineer? Most technology we use today involves software - from watching our favorite shows on Netflix, to ordering a Starbucks pickup, to scheduling an early morning Uber to the airport. It should come as no surprise that programming has been the most in-demand job in our digital economy over the past 20 years. But as of late, a fascinating new technology known as GitHub Pilot has been making waves in tech. Copilot is an automatic coding tool, powered by OpenAI, one of the worlds leading AI research laboratories and founded by tech titans such as Elon Musk and Sam Altman. It can effectively look at code written by a human programmer and suggest further lines or alternative code, eliminating some of the repetitive labor that goes into software development. Today, we chat with Nick Vincent once again, but this time about the ethics and irony of AI being able to automate programming itself.Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to keep up with the latest stories in our ever-changing digital economy. @thingshavechangedpodSupport the show (https://www.thc-pod.com/)
Digital networks have centralized power over identities and information, creating problems for both markets and democracy. Does the solution require more shared agency over data?

The backstory to this episode is a lengthy research collaboration focused on how the value of data gets captured. With that in mind, how to design a tax that would fairly redistribute it. You can see the collaboration results at Datadividends.org -- a proposal for a simple, eminently implementable tax that would go to the heart of the economic distortion caused by the data economy. In this conversation with Yakov Feygin and Nick Vincent, we focus on how data and other assets get their value; compare data policy to the industrial policy of the depression era; and much more.Yakov Feygin is responsible for developing the research plan, projects, initiatives, and partnerships for the Future of Capitalism program at the Berggruen Institute. Before joining the Berggruen Institute, Yakov was a fellow in History and Policy at the Harvard University Kennedy School of Government and managing editor of The Private Debt Project. Yakov holds a Ph.D. in History with a focus on economic history from the University of Pennsylvania.

Chip just starts reading off some stats from the 1994 strike-shortened season. Cern has a great point in saying the game of baseball isn’t ready for a strike.

The Mariners start a very big trip in Arizona tonight. Nick Vincent and Ben Gamel visit. Josh Kerns returns with another great feature and we remember the Kingdome.
This week Kate and John are joined by staff writer Matthew Robeson to talk the current state of the team, the slumping offense, and a bunch of other nonsense because talking about the team isn’t super-fun right now. 0 - 12:00: Matthew and John offer a preview of their TED talk, How to Watch Mariners Baseball: a Primer. Matthew is outraged the team rosters both Nick Vincent and Zach Vincej, although for how much longer, who knows. The current state of the offense is discussed, and the word “brutal” is used a fair amount of times. Matthew is forced to revisit the long interview he just wrote up with prospect Bryson Brigman, traded for Cameron Maybin the day the article was set to publish. 12:00 - 24:00: Discussing Maybin and the trade deadline. Matthew invokes the name of Austin Jackson and some heavy magical thinking. John raises the question of what the Mariners’ best-ever trade deadline acquisition was, and Matthew makes a good argument that it might be Denard Span. Kate tries to delineate between loyalty to Félix and wanting accountability for things the King could have done better, and inadvertently causes Matthew to black out. 24:00 - 38:00: Looking down the stretch and assessing the panic levels for all teams not named The Boston Red Sox. Discussing the A’s bold trade deadline strategy of doing nothing and whether or not their heavily-taxed bullpen can continue to support starters who can’t make it through the seventh, assessing the sustainability of their offensive production, and examining their schedule compared to ours. 38:00 - 45:00: Assessing panic levels. John points out that the fanbase has a longer memory of the Mariners’ longterm failure than almost anyone who is currently playing for the Mariners. Sometimes not having any homegrown prospects is good! Matthew notes that in that way, the fanbase reflects the city itself. 45:00 - end: Questions! Learn more about your ad choices.
