2024 taught us to expect the unbelievable says Tom Standage, deputy editor of The Economist magazine with last year's assassination attempts on Donald Trump, exploding walkie-talkies in the Middle East and chopsticks catching giant rockets. Every year, the magazine looks at trends in a special edition called The World Ahead in 2025. Jesse talks to Standage about what he says will be the hallmark of the coming year, uncertainty, as well as the implications of the Trump presidency in America, tariff talks across the globe and a reckoning for artificial intelligence regulation and overtourism.

I det här avsnittet ställer vi en fråga man inte ställer varje dag: har vi ölet att tacka för mänsklig civilisation? Den är hårdvinklad – visst – men inte lika orimlig som det kan framstå vid första anblick. Ölet var en av de viktigaste produkterna för de tidiga jordbrukarna. I både de sumeriska och egyptiska högkulturerna hade drycken en viktig roll i såväl ekonomin som religionen.Vattnet är människans viktigaste dryck, men att ölet kommer på andra plats är det ingen fråga om. Här kommer ett avsnitt om människans näst viktigaste drycks förindustriella historia.

Jeff Katz in for Glenn. Today is the day after Christmas, and while rewatching Christmas classics, a clip from “A Charlie Brown Christmas” discussing the true meaning of Christmas captured Jeff's attention. Would anyone in Hollywood today dare make this or any of the traditional Christmas movies that are watched yearly? Absolutely not, and that's why it needs to be preserved and seen every year to help keep the traditions alive. What has happened to the FBI? Jimmy Gagliano, a retired FBI supervisory special agent, joins Jeff and explains that it might partly be the political makeup of the recent classes of the FBI that has allowed it to become just another wing of the political apparatus. Is Donald Trump on the verge of being king-like? Jeff plays a clip from the Economist deputy editor Tom Standage laughing on PBS about what a second Trump presidency would look like. Trump is accused by Standage of doing things that President Biden has actually done! Merry Christmas from Barack Obama! Jeff discusses what the former president's Christmas message was, at least what was written for him versus what he said in his video wishing seasons' greetings, how he has changed the meaning of the word “giving,” and how other words' meanings are being changed, including the word genocide. As we get closer to the end of the year, it's time for the Biden administration to look back at all the good done for the American people this year! From hiring the first black gay press secretary to pushing transgenderism on our children and rampant inflation ... wait, is it good for the American people or good for your identity politics?

Welcome to part two of The Ethnobotany of Beer! This week, we continue to explore the question on everyone's mind these days: did civilization invent beer, or did beer invent civilization? And then we help solve a cold case: did ancient Africans know and use antibiotics? And why are we asking this in a discussion of beer? And is there really a 10 CD set comprised entirely of German beer drinking songs? And what did the late Frank Zappa say – and sing – about beer?   Works Cited Appleton, Frank.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.03.22.533826v1?rss=1 Authors: Cuthbert, B., Standage, D., Pare, M., Blohm, G. Abstract: Whole-report working memory tasks provide a measure of recall for all stimuli in a trial, and afford single-trial analyses that are not possible using traditional single-report delayed estimation tasks. However, most whole-report studies assume that trial stimuli are encoded and reported independently, and do not consider the relationships between stimuli presented and reported within the same trial. Here, we present the results of two independently conducted whole-report experiments. The first dataset was recorded by Adam et al. (2017), and required participants to report color and orientation stimuli using a continuous color wheel. We recorded the second dataset, which required participants to report color stimuli using a set of discrete buttons. We find that participants often group their reports by stimulus similarity, contradicting the assumption of independence implicit in most encoding models of working memory. Next, we show that this behavior is consistent across participants and experiments when reporting color but not orientation, two circular variables often assumed to be equivalent. Finally, we implement a hierarchical Bayesian model---an alternative to independent encoding---and show that ensemble encoding predicts biases that are not present in either dataset. Taken together, these results suggest that assumptions made by both independent and ensemble encoding models---which were developed in the context of single-report delayed estimation tasks---do not hold for the whole-report task. This failure to generalize highlights the need to consider variations in task structure when inferring fundamental principles of visual working memory. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Horse poop propelled us into automobiles. In the early 20th century there were health concerns over all the manure taking up urban streets. That said, we shifted from an actual horse's power to shifting into Fords and all sorts of other mechanical personal vehicles. By doing that, we reshaped cities and, further, human society. In A Brief History of Motion, journalist Tom Standage gave a brisk, entertaining look at how we got from point A to point B throughout history. From the origins of the wheel (likely first made in the Carpathian Mountains during the Copper Age), Standage moved through the eras of horses, trains, bicycles, and the mighty automobile. In each step, he illuminated how we've been shaped by these inventions and asks important questions like, “Why does red mean stop and green mean go?” “Why do some countries drive on the left, and some on the right?” and “What might travel in a post-car world look like?” Our relationship with personal transportation has evolved and is ever-evolving (we're moving into an era of rideshares and electric cars— when are we going to finally get personal jet packs?) and Standage asserted that understanding how the modern world came to be is key in moving forward. Tom Standage is deputy editor of the Economist and the author of six previous history books. His writing has also appeared in the New York Times, the Guardian, Wired, and other publications. Standage holds a degree in engineering and computer science from Oxford University. Mark Harris is an investigative technology reporter based in Seattle, writing regularly for The Guardian, Wired, MIT Technology Review, and TechCrunch.  He has a special interest in transportation, breaking stories on giant airships, military drones, GPS attacks, and automated vehicles.  Buy the Book: A Brief History of Motion: From the Wheel, to the Car, to What Comes Next (Hardcover) from Third Place Books Presented by Town Hall Seattle.

2020 was a year of crisis and shock, and there is still much about how the pandemic will change our societies that we do not know. We're talking to Tom Standage, deputy editor at the Economist, to get an insight into how the repercussions of this past year could play out. Mr. Standage has a degree in computer science and engineering and he has been a science and technology writer for The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph. His role at The Economist focuses on the website, the application, and its digital platform. Given his areas of expertise, we'll be asking him some big picture questions about technological change over the past 30 years, the potential for a tech-led productivity boom in the near future, and how this might interact with our society and our politics. We'll also discuss the state of journalism and public debate today, and how these have been impacted by the pandemic.

The Museum of Automatons is packed with automatons... mechanical figures that move and speak.  Imagine what Walt Disney would have designed in the 18th century - automatons were attempts to mimic human figures in remarkable ways.  Really, just the first glimpse at the future of robotics...or at least robots that would mimic humans and other animals.  But automatons weren't just gifts wealthy European families commissioned and gifted to others.  An automaton like some exhibited here defeated Napoleon at the height of his military and political power. But it didn't beat him on the battlefield. It defeated him on a chess board.

In this episode, the guys talk about Coke and how they managed to marketing their product a very challenging market. Nico thinks back of his time in the Middle East and Chad get the "Hey Chad" right twice in a row. Coca-Cola embodies the American dream so much that, according to Webster, during the Cold War, Coca-Cola became a symbol of capitalism and a fault line between capitalism and communism. Tom Standage, author of ‘A History of the World in Six Glasses', explains that Coca-Cola wasn't marketed in the former Soviet Union due to the fear that profits would go straight into communist government coffers. Standage also says, "Coca-Cola is the nearest thing to capitalism in a bottle." In today's episode we discuss how does something so..American..translate internationally? The emotional appeal of Coca-Cola's brand goes back farther than in the late 20th century. Coca-Cola is and has been understood as something so intrinsically American that during World War II, American troops that were overseas fighting in the war were provided with Coca Cola. Because much of Coca-Cola's first international contact came via interaction with soldiers, the brand quickly became associated with American patriotism and America in general. One good example of how Coca-Cola took an active and creative role in connecting with their consumers came about in 2008 when Coca-Cola started Coke Studio. In all regions, Coca-Cola strives to be about bringing people together. To Coca-Cola, simply bringing people together in local communities in the Arab World was insufficient. Coca-Cola wanted to convince Arab consumers that they should embrace both each other and those from the West. Coca-Cola's marketing team wasn't just determined to accomplish the goal set out by the company; they were creative. Coke Studio - a music television series that gained huge popularity. Originally piloted by Coca-Cola in Brazil, and subsequently, in Pakistan, this effort in the Arab world alone has been credited with increasing sales of Coca-Cola to levels higher than before the Arab Spring. For Coca-Cola, the obvious reason that most people buy the product is the brand. But after campaigns like Coke Studio and Crazy for Good, what is Coca-Cola's global brand? Webster claims that the company's brand might not strictly be the American dream anymore but it's still American or at the very least western. He also points out that, “America itself as a brand is more tarnished now. People are more ambiguous towards it." This is unfortunate because, as Webster also says, "The whole strength of the brand is plugging into a way of life that so many people wanted. As an ideology, it polarises. And sometimes those associations become unattractive.” Coca-Cola's brand may be about happiness, friendliness, and good times but associations with America and the West persist. Intended to be as pejorative as it sounds, the term "Coca-Colonisation" came about in the 1950s. It was created by the French while they were overturning Coca-Cola trucks and smashing Coca-Cola bottles. Protestors, according to Standage, saw the drink as a threat to French society.  The French weren't the last to publicly and physically denounce Coca-Cola. Half a century after "Coca-Colonisation" became a phrase, in 2003 in a wonderfully ironic protest reminiscent of the U.S.'s own Boston Tea Party, protesters in Thailand poured Coca-Cola onto the streets as a demonstration against the US-led invasion of Iraq. Coca-Cola sales were then temporarily suspended in Thailand. Coke didn't invade Iraq.  The U.S. did.  But to the people of Thailand the two were synonymous enough that the pouring out of Coke sufficiently conveyed their message - and not on a local scale but a global one.  For example, the 1968-1991 boycott in the middle east, created an inherent hostility towards the brand in the populations of middle eastern countries, something which Coca Cola has been battling ever since with campaigns lik...

He has worked alongside the Founders of FranklinCovey for over a decade, and worked with numerous leaders, entrepreneurs, and athletes during his career such as Bill Phillips, Richard Branson or Bill Romanowski. Brian shared some very deep, meaningful conversations about the challenges that men face along the “Business + Bliss” journey, about the personal and social pressure to prioritize the importance of accomplishments and titles, even when that is incongruent with what they claim their true values are (e.g. family). Through a chilling and enlightening example of being challenged to cross an I-beam at the top of two skyscrapers, he helps to demonstrate where values and actions come into alignment when someone is being honest about what their values truly are. Another point came up in the area of values where Jen talks about her Mastery Retreats and how people don’t realize that the “glass ceiling” they’re hitting is because THEY have beliefs or values that are out of alignment, causing them to rise, rise, rise and then plateau, without ever understanding why. Brian also shares his standpoint as a leader when asking people, “Are you being a fountain or a drain?” to compel them to evaluate their behavior and its impact on others.

The Otto D Show

Tom Standage – Digital Editor, The Economist, spoke at the Business and Practice of Journalism seminar on Wednesday 7 May 2014. “We’re the view from the moon.” That’s The Economist’s biggest selling point, according to Digital Editor Tom Standage. He said the increasing demand for a less parochial serving of news is what sets his ‘newspaper’ apart in a crowded global market. “We’re for aliens that speak English,” he laughed. After studying engineering and computer science at Oxford University, Standage began his career as a freelance technology writer before joining The Guardian as it was setting up its first website. “I wrote a script to render the headlines in the right font, because I wanted it to look and feel like The Guardian,” he said. From there he wrote for the Daily Telegraph before joining The Economist as a science writer, business editor, and eventually Digital Editor. Standage says being global and being a weekly has allowed The Economist to make a relatively seamless transition to the web. Their 1.6 million subscribers ensure they’re profitable; the company posted an operating profit of £68 million last year. The Economist’s digital strategy is neither to push nor prevent traditional print readers from migrating to their digital offer. “We’re agnostic about whether they take print or digital in their subscription. It’s just ‘you decide’,” he said. Most revenue comes from subscribers and not ads. “We’ll take the print-advertising money while it’s there, but our success is not predicated on ads,” he explained. Standage points to several digital innovations as hallmarks of The Economist’s success online. “Our Daily Charts blog includes quite jolly charts on both serious issues and things like which country has had the most plastic surgery (http://www.economist.com/blogs/graphicdetail/2012/04/daily-chart-13). “We shouldn’t be a brand that does well on social media but these charts are working very well for us.” The other innovation Standage is proud of is The Economist’s “essays” including one on democracy (http://www.economist.com/news/essays/21596796-democracy-was-most-successful-political-idea-20th-century-why-has-it-run-trouble-and-what-can-be-do). These are long-form interactive essays with embedded pictures, graphs, and charts. He says unlike The New York Times which had many journalists and developers working for months on their famed Snowfall presentation (http://www.nytimes.com/projects/2012/snow-fall/#/?part=tunnel-creek) or The Guardian with Firestorm (http://www.theguardian.com/world/interactive/2013/may/26/firestorm-bushfire-dunalley-holmes-family), The Economist prefers to turn out shorter presentations more often. Standage was critical of media companies such as The Atlantic, Quartz, and BuzzFeed which use native ads with a similar look and feel to editorial content. He said The Economist labels their ads and places them in a separate area of the website to general content. The Economist does have blogs that are sponsored (such as the one sponsored by GE) but Standage insists readers do realise the content is still independent of GE and written by a journalist. Video continues to be a challenge for The Economist and Standage admitted most of their “abstract, complex ideas don’t lend themselves to video treatments.” He also stressed that transparency is more important than objectivity. “You can be as biased as you like as long as you tell people your biases,” he said. “We were founded in 1843 to campaign for free trade, and we always tell you where we’re coming from.”

Tom Standage is digital editor at the Economist magazine and the author of several books including A History of the World in 6 Glasses and The Victorian Internet. He has also written for the New York Times, Wired, and other publications. His new book, WRITING ON THE WALL: Social Media – The First 2,000 Years, is a fascinating exploration of communication, from papyrus to Twitter. In this exclusive interview, Standage defines social media.

If an opponent made an illegal move, the Turk would shake its head, move the piece back and make its own move, thus forcing a forfeit of its opponent's move.[20] Louis Dutens, a traveller who observed a showing of the Turk, attempted to trick the machine "by giving the Queen the move of a Knight, but my mechanic opponent was not to be so imposed upon; he took up my Queen and replaced her in the square from which I had moved her.     Another part of the machine's exhibition was the completion of the knight's tour, a famed chess puzzle. The puzzle requires the player to move a knight around a chessboard, touching each square once along the way. While most experienced chess players of the time still struggled with the puzzle, the Turk was capable of completing the tour without any difficulty from any starting point via a pegboard used by the director with a mapping of the puzzle laid out.[23] The Turk also had the ability to converse with spectators using a letter board.   In 1809, Napoleon I of France arrived at Schönbrunn Palace to play the Turk. According to an eyewitness report, Mälzel took responsibility for the construction of the machine while preparing the game, and the Turk (Johann Baptist Allgaier) saluted Napoleon prior to the start of the match.     15 min video  it 7 history of turk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfDDcaewlZU   Hitler Diaries The magazine had paid nearly 9 million German marks for the sixty small books, plus a "special volume" about Rudolf Hess' flight to the United Kingdom, covering the period from 1932 to 1945     Two historians who did briefly see them, Hugh Trevor-Roper (later Baron Dacre of Glanton) and Gerhard Weinberg, were retained by Times Newspapers and Newsweek, respectively, to authenticate the diaries prior to bidding for the serialisation rights.   Many doubted the diaries' genuineness. Former German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt told a group "I just can't believe it's true". Skeptics thought that no one person could have forged 60 volumes, and believed that the East German and Soviet governments had faked the diaries to divide West Germany from its allies, or to earn Western hard currency.[2] Doubts quickly emerged. A press conference held to launch publication on 25 April 1983 was a fiasco for Stern. Both Trevor-Roper and Weinberg qualified their previous endorsements, and writer David Irving held up photocopies of a fake Hitler diary that he said was from the same source as Stern's material. Within two weeks, the West German Bundesarchiv revealed that the Hitler Diaries were "grotesquely superficial fakes"     It was never determined where the missing money[clarification needed] went. Kujau certainly received a portion of it, but it is likely that Heidemann pocketed a majority. A Hamburg court later found that Heidemann kept at least 4.4 million Deutsche marks.[3] At the time the fraud was being investigated, authorities learned that Heidemann purchased two villas in Spain, two luxury sports cars, expensive jewelry, rare World War II memorabilia for his collection, and extravagant vacations, amongst other things. All of the items, totaling well over 1.5 million marks, were allegedly paid for out of Heidemann's monthly salary of 5,400 Marks. After release from prison, Kujau was able to use his new fame as a forger to open a studio and sell "original Kujau forgeries".[       Alien autopsy was the name given to a hoaxed medical examination and dissection of a dummy depicted in a film released in the 1990s by a London-based entrepreneur Ray Santilli. He presented it as an autopsy on the body of an extraterrestrial being recovered from the crash of a "flying disc" near Roswell, New Mexico on June 2, 1947. The 17-minute black-and-white film of poor quality surfaced in the 1990s, and Santilli claimed he had received it from an unidentified, former military cameraman   Five minute video on explanation the alien autopsy film http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOwxgVCVdrg Alien autopsy film http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaVF3vj9gCo   Piltdown Man   The Piltdown Man was a hoax in which bone fragments were presented as the fossilised remains of a previously unknown early human. These fragments consisted of parts of a skull and jawbone, said to have been collected in 1912 from a gravel pit at Piltdown, East Sussex 5 min video on piltdowm man http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VGhzv30bnQ     The spaghetti tree hoax is a famous 3-minute hoax report broadcast on April Fools' Day 1957 by the BBC current affairs programme Panorama. It told a tale of a family in southernSwitzerland harvesting spaghetti from the fictitious spaghetti tree, broadcast at a time when thisItalian dish was not widely eaten in the UK and some Britons were unaware that spaghetti is apasta made from wheat flour and water. Hundreds of viewers phoned into the BBC, either to say the story was not true, or wondering about it, with some even asking how to grow their own spaghetti trees. Decades later CNN called this broadcast "the biggest hoax that any reputable news establishment ever pulled."[1] 5 min video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27ugSKW4-QQ   Hoaxes explained videos 5 min each   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OlnUbHofJ4   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsK4ZOVQonc   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdNEN4rUOTA   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o04ojQ6PvrM

More than simply sustenance, food historically has been a kind of technology, changing the course of human progress by helping to build empires, promote industrialization, and decide the outcomes of wars. Tom Standage draws on archaeology, anthropology, and economics to reveal how food has helped shape and transform societies around the world, from the emergence of farming in China by 7500 b.c. to the use of sugar cane and corn to make ethanol today. An Edible History of Humanity is a fully satisfying account of human history.
