A single chalkboard scene in Hoppers appears to reveal the origins of some of Pixar's most important technologies, including talking dog collars, WALL-E, MO, scream canisters, and possibly even the secret behind Cars itself. Today we're breaking down every clue, every Easter egg, and every connection to discover how Hoppers fits into the Pixar Theory timeline. #pixar #Hoppers #SuperCarlinBrothers

It's 1990. A young staff economist walks into a director's office at the World Bank and says the number he's about to publish is "crazy". The director tells him not to worry about it. The number was the dollar-a-day poverty line. Lant Pritchett, now of LSE, was that economist. More than three decades later, he's still worrying about it. In this week's episode he argues that the dollar-a-day line warped how the world thinks about poverty, by setting the bar so low that we can count billions of deprived people as not poor.In a new paper, co-authored with Martina Viarengo (Graduate Institute, Geneva), their fix isn't to scrap the low line. It's to add a high one as well. They propose a global upper-bound poverty line of $21.50 a day, ten times the extreme-poverty standard, derived from four separate measures of material wellbeing.Above it, you're no longer poor by any reasonable global standard. Below it, you're poor in a sense worth measuring. By that standard, 99% of Pakistan is poor, and almost no one in Denmark is. Should that affect how we think about anti-poverty policy?

The citation above is formatted and ready for a reading list or VLE.About the guestLant Pritchett is a development economist and Visiting Professor at the School of Public Policy at the London School of Economics. He worked at the World Bank from 1988 to 2007 and taught at the Harvard Kennedy School for nearly two decades. His work spans economic growth, state capability, education systems, and labour mobility.The paper is co-authored with Martina Viarengo, Professor of International Economics at the Geneva Graduate Institute. Her research spans public policy, labour markets, comparative education, and international migration.Research cited in this episodeThe dollar-a-day poverty line. Created for the World Bank's 1990 World Development Report on poverty and based on the observation that national poverty lines in the poorest countries clustered at a low floor (Ravallion, Datt and van de Walle 1991). Updated for inflation, it now sits at P$2.15 a day in 2017 purchasing power parity. It was only ever meant to mark the lowest a global poverty line could plausibly be, not the line.The focus axiom. A standard property of poverty measures, originating with Amartya Sen (1976), under which changes in the income of anyone above the poverty line do not register in the measure. Pritchett's objection is that this assigns mathematically zero weight to the near-poor; a household just above the line counts the same as a Danish millionaire, namely zero. He calls it an economic bug that became a political feature, because it takes global redistribution off the table.Gresham's law applied to poverty. Pritchett's framing for how the simple headcount displaced richer, distribution-sensitive approaches; bad economics drove out better economics because it was easier to understand. He notes the World Bank of the 1970s was preoccupied with distribution, citing Hollis Chenery and Montek Ahluwalia's Redistribution with Growth (1974), so the idea that economists ignored distribution until poverty measurement arrived is a myth.The two criteria for an upper bound. The proposed line rests on two ideas drawn from the tension between the focus axiom and standard welfare economics. One, material wellbeing achievement; the line sits where a household reaches a standard of living a rich-country citizen would recognise as adequate. Two, near enough satiation; the line sits where the extra wellbeing from another dollar has fallen so low that treating further gains as zero does little violence to reality. At twenty-one and a half dollars the marginal utility of income is roughly three percent of its value at the dollar-a-day line; at the World Bank's current high line of P$6.85 it is still around thirty percent.Four measures of wellbeing. The number is triangulated across an iso-elastic utility function, food shares in consumption (Engel's Law), a household index of six basic conditions drawn from Demographic and Health Survey data, and a cross-national index of basics. The estimates cluster between twenty and forty dollars a day; twenty-one and a half was chosen because it is exactly ten times the dollar-a-day line, a focal point in the same way one dollar was.The six minimal conditions of prosperity. Electricity, improved sanitation, safe water, primary schooling completed by older children, no child dying under five, and no young child malnourished. The test Pritchett applies is whether it would be absurd to call a household prosperous while it lacks one of them.The rich of the poor and the poor of the rich. The tenth percentile in Denmark has higher consumption than the ninetieth percentile in Pakistan or Indonesia. This is why any global line that produces meaningful poverty in rich countries implies poverty rates near one hundred percent across most of the developing world; a point Dani Rodrik (2007) showed is widely misunderstood.The prosperity gap. A distribution-sensitive welfare measure adopted by the World Bank (Kraay et al. 2025) that weights the whole income distribution rather than counting everyone above a threshold as zero. Pritchett offers it, alongside poverty-gap and squared-poverty-gap measures at a higher line, as the practical route to acting on a global upper bound without reducing everything to a single headcount.More VoxDev Talks episodesRethinking evidence and refocusing on growth in development economics, Lant Pritchett on what the problem might be if we rely exclusively on rigorous evidence in development economics as a guide for policy.Rethinking how we measure extreme poverty, Charles Kenny asks: is it time for a new measure of extreme poverty?
On today's episode, we discuss how fast emerging tech is reshaping everyday life, from glitchy home solar systems to self‑driving cars, sex robots, and AI‑driven coding tools. Glenn opens with a candid update on his Tesla‑based solar setup—celebrating a newly functional generator‑battery handoff while venting about failed inverters and long calls with Tesla support—before the group pivots into how well the latest Full Self‑Driving software now handles stop signs, parking, and even spotting deer at night using cameras and possibly infrared. From there, they debate LiDAR versus camera‑only systems, the future of EVs and hybrids, and how self‑driving will eventually trickle down into everything from lawnmowers to Roombas as autonomy gets baked into cheap firmware chips rather than constantly updated software. The conversation then gets speculative and playful: humanoid robots doing warehouse work and construction, direct brain interfaces by 2035, AI‑mediated sex and “Tesla Ranch” brothels, and a looming choice between a Wall‑E future of passive comfort or a Star Trek future of exploration and fitness. In the final stretch, they return to Elon Musk's growing power—Starlink as a de facto “second internet,” Grok Build and vibe‑coding tools that let non‑programmers wire systems together—and close with a non‑advice discussion of Bitcoin and crypto, arguing that upcoming U.S. regulation and broader access through mainstream financial firms could unleash a major new wave of demand.

Every week, Sue and Kendra have the privilege of spotlighting people whose creativity, heart, and drive help make our city stronger—and today they talked with Rockport, MA native -- Academy Award winning Director Andrew Stanton whose creative force brought us the Toy Story franchise, Finding Nemo, Finding Dory, Monsters Inc and WALL-E. Sue and her husband Tom are lifelong friends with Andrew and his wife Julie; they will be on the red carpet for the LA Premiere of Toy Story 5 (opening in theatres June 19). They needed to prepare him for Sue... and have fun with a little game called "Name the Toy from its Story."
Show Notes We're headed to the final frontier with the embodiment of a PC in search of his Mac lady love in WALL-E. Turns out you can make a largely silent film about a non-organic character and kids will love it!

Von Ghetto-Slang, Gartenfrust und einem Gerichts-Drama voller Logiklöcher Von Ghetto-Begrüßungen über Nerd-Hochzeiten bis hin zu einem Film, der die Jungs (leider) fassungslos zurücklässt! Die Folge beginnt mit einem kleinen sprachlichen Fehlstart: Zeljko versucht sich an Jugend-Slang ("Was geht, Brudi?"). Nachdem das geklärt ist, schüttet Timo sein Herz über seinen Rasen aus. Tipps von Garten-Experten aus der Zuhörerschaft sind hochwillkommen! Besser lief es da auf einer Nerd-Hochzeit am Wochenende, die komplett im Herr der Ringe- und Franchise-Thema (Einzugsmusik: Concerning Hobbits!) gehalten war. Danach tauchen die beiden in ihre zuletzt gesehenen Filme ein. Zeljko hat Red Rooms (2023) für ein Rewatch mit Freunden aus dem Hut gezaubert. Obwohl es kein blutiger Film ist, saß das Unbehagen bei allen Beteiligten tief – ein echter "Downer", den man sich auch beim zweiten Mal kaum entziehen kann. Timo hat sich derweil dem Animationsfilm Hoppers gewidmet. Ein junges Mädchen, das per Bewusstseinsübertragung in einen Biber-Roboter schlüpft, um einen See zu retten. Ein klassischer Pixar-Film mit Avatar-Anleihen, der gut unterhält, aber für Timo nicht an die Glanzzeiten des Studios (wie WALL-E oder Up) heranreicht. Zeljko war außerdem emotional völlig ergriffen von Aftersun. Das ruhige Drama über eine Vater-Tochter-Beziehung im Türkei-Urlaub entfaltete für ihn durch seine subtile Erzählweise und die starken schauspielerischen Leistungen (besonders von Paul Mescal) eine unglaubliche Tiefe. Timo, der den Film schon länger kennt, merkt an, dass der Film für ihn einen noch krasseren Impact gehabt hätte, wenn die unterschwellige Thematik (Depression) klarer aufgelöst worden wäre. Der Film der Woche ist das auf wahren Begebenheiten beruhende Justizdrama Nürnberg. Und hier sind sich Timo und Zeljko leider komplett einig: Der Film war eine massive Enttäuschung. Im Zentrum steht nicht der Nürnberger Prozess an sich, sondern das psychologische Duell zwischen dem US-Psychiater Douglas Kelley (Rami Malek) und Hermann Göring (Russell Crowe). Das Hauptproblem für Timo: Das gebrochene, katastrophale Deutsch von Russell Crowe und anderen Hauptdarstellern, das die Immersion völlig zerstört. Zudem ärgert er sich über historische Ungenauigkeiten. Auch Zeljko kritisiert die "Marvel-eske" Inszenierung, die dem ernsten Thema nicht gerecht wird, und empfiehlt lieber Klassiker wie Der Untergang oder Zone of Interest. Einzig positiv: Der Film hat Timo dazu animiert, sich im Anschluss noch einmal tief in die echten historischen Fakten und Originalaufnahmen der Prozesse einzuarbeiten. Eine Folge voller Alltags-Anekdoten, emotionaler Indie-Perlen und einem historischen Drama, das sein Potenzial leider völlig verschenkt hat.

[School of Movies 2026] Our month of movies about A.I. continues, this time with something everybody loves. And WALL-E is in fact pulling double duty on this one, because we get a heartwarming story about robots who fall in love despite their differing classes and stations, and having to defy their employees in order to not only be happy but bring Earth back to life again... AND we get an unexpected sledgehammer of a glimpse into the future from 2008. It was as though Andrew Stanton and Pixar saw how easily Social Media would take hold of us as a species, and cater to our every dopamine whim in order to keep our attention, as we sacrificed everything about ourselves for the sake of convenience, including but not limited to complacency over ecological disaster. This movie is a masterpiece, and has become chillingly, shockingly more relevent with every year. This Week's After School Club: Weird Science Next Week's Main Event: Ex-Machina & HER

Big tech is making a blunt trade: fewer people, more AI. We dig into Meta's plan to cut more than 10% of its workforce while pouring an eye-watering budget into AI, then zoom out to the uncomfortable pattern across the industry where payroll turns into infrastructure spend. Along the way we hit a surprisingly human twist: one of the biggest uses of AI isn't coding or design, it's companionship and therapy, which says a lot about where our culture is headed.From there, we step into the billionaire arena with Elon Musk versus Sam Altman. We walk through the origins story, the lawsuit stakes, and why governance fights in court can shape the future of artificial intelligence more than public mission statements ever will. If the case slows OpenAI or forces structural changes, it could ripple through the entire AI race, and we're all along for the ride whether we asked for it or not.Then we get practical and a little weird: robots and drones delivering dinner for “one dollar,” TechNeck and the anxiety economy, Cornell's microbubble cleaning breakthrough, and a humanoid robot half marathon that jumps from novelty to serious capability in a single year. We also pressure-test “AI safety” messaging with Meta's new AI Insights for parents, and we hand out a Technology Fail of the Week to an AI tractor that promised the future but couldn't handle real farms.We cap it all off with a Green River Kentucky Straight Bourbon tasting and a debate about whether the next decade feels more like Terminator or WALL-E.

This week, the Dads head into the Australian Outback to review Nicolas Roeg's mesmerizing and dreamlike 1971 survival drama, Walkabout.Dan kicks things off by admitting he completely confused this movie with A Far Off Place, spending the first hour waiting for a dog that was never going to appear. Once the confusion settles, Sidey, Dan, Reegs, and Cris dive deep into this visual masterpiece starring Jenny Agutter, Luc Roeg, and the legendary David Gulpilil.In this episode:- Dan's Kalahari Desert mix-up- The culture clash: modern society vs. indigenous life- Have humans evolved too fast for the modern world? (Cris predicts our WALL-E slug future)- The indestructible nature of 1970s school uniform tights- Why you shouldn't go hiking in formal leather school shoes- The brilliant, almost entirely improvised performances from the young cast- Comparisons to last week's film (Sovereign) on the topic of rejecting modern societyVerdict: Strong recommend across the board. A weird, beautiful, and thought-provoking classic.Films/shows mentioned: Walkabout (1971), Sovereign (2025), A Far Off Place (1993), Don't Look Now (1973), The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976), WALL-E (2008), Crocodile Dundee (1986).You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

Damien Perriman, Chief Commercial Officer of eXoZymes and the commercial lead behind the NCTx spinout, breaks down why cell-free biomanufacturing changes the rules for scaling nature's rare molecules. Damien explains why the team spun NCTX out as a separate commercial vehicle, what it means to successfully transfer a process to a partner manufacturer (including a milestone Cayman validation), and why NCT (n-trans-caffeoyl tyramine), a trace compound found in peppercorns and hemp seed husks, has drawn so much attention as the only known agonist of HNF4A, a metabolic “switch” tied to mitochondrial function. The conversation also covers the logic behind launching first in supplements, how to build credibility in a crowded category through safety and product consistency, how regulatory timelines shape strategy, and why industrial biotech needs to move from platform-first stories to molecule-led business cases that match real market demand.Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life.

AI Twins and the Future of Research The Experience Strategy Podcast Episode Overview Two Wall Street Journal articles are making waves in the market research world — one asking whether AI can replace human research participants, and another profiling a teenage-founded startup called Aura that's already attracted McDonald's and EY. Dave, Joe, and Aransas bring their combined decades of consumer research experience to the question everyone in insights is quietly asking: is this the end of primary research, or the beginning of something more powerful? What We Cover The two WSJ articles at the center of this conversation The first covers Simile, a startup building agentic AI twins modeled on real people for polling and market research. The second profiles Aura, a company founded by people younger than Aransas's high schooler, betting that AI bots can predict human behavior better than humans themselves. Dave's evolving reaction — Worry, skepticism, and then possibility His first instinct was worry. Stone Mantel has built its practice on deep consumer research, and the promise of AI twins that can answer with 0.5% accuracy at first felt wrong. But the more he sat with it, the more he saw a useful analogy: flight simulators. Simulators serve a real purpose as long as everyone is clear they are not the same as flying the actual plane. The critical flaw in current AI twin models Both Dave and Joe land on the same problem independently: AI twins are built on static preferences and demographic profiles. They treat people as if behavior is fixed — "this is how soccer moms respond" — when the entire premise of situational research is that behavior shifts with context. What mode is the person in? What situation are they navigating? Those questions are not being asked. Joe puts it plainly: they didn't ask anything about modes. Where AI twins might actually work well Trend prediction and aggregate market analysis are reasonable use cases. If you want to know whether fruit-flavored tea is about to have a moment, AI models scanning historical purchasing data and cultural signals can probably get you there. The harder problem — and the more valuable one — is understanding what a specific person cares about in a specific moment, and that requires something current AI twins are not equipped to provide. What AI twins could become with better design Dave raises an intriguing possibility: after completing primary research with a real consumer, could that data become the seed for ongoing simulation and modeling? Not as a replacement for the research, but as a way to extend its value across time and decisions. He also flags the bias risk — every feedback loop that improves AI accuracy may also drift it further from the original human signal. Joe's Wall-E scenario The Terminator isn't Joe's fear. Wall-E is. Personal language models hanging out in your Alexa, learning everything you say and do, eventually making purchasing decisions on your behalf — and research shifting to focus on the PLM rather than the person. The result: consumers with no agency, led entirely by AI intermediaries and the consumer goods companies they serve. The consent problem CBS claimed 400,000 people opted in to being replicated as AI twins. Aransas is skeptical — and direct. That was some very fine print. Companies building AI twin programs need to be serious about how they are collecting this data, not just technically compliant. Key Idea If AI can actually predict behavior change, it is no longer a tool — it is strategy. That quote, attributed to a Coca-Cola executive in the second article, captures what is at stake. Dave frames it through the lens of superpowers: AI gives companies the ability to do things they could not do otherwise. The question is whether the thing they are doing actually reflects how real humans behave. Continue the Conversation Join Dave, Joe, and Aransas on The Experience Strategist Substack to go deeper on this episode's themes.

J.B. and Eddie are out of the vault and over the moon for this one. This week the guys review Pixar's Wall-E (2008) — a film that somehow delivers sharp environmental and social commentary, a sweeping romance, and some of the best physical comedy in Pixar history, all with barely any dialogue. Is it the most underrated film in the Pixar canon? The guys make a strong case, and debate where Wall-E ranks among cinema's greatest robots.Then in Disney News: the new class of Disney Legends is announced ahead of D23 — and it's a fascinating mix of animators, voice actors, Imagineers, and a couple of familiar faces with movies coming out this summer. Plus, Avengers: Doomsday continues to raise eyebrows as Imax hands its screens to Dune: Messiah, and Disney's newly relaunched Adventure World at Disneyland Paris is turning heads with some jaw-dropping robotics. The We Call It Imagineering series on Disney+ is required viewing.
The crew attempts to navigate a messy Homie Helpline where a friendship is evolving "like a Pokémon" into a threesome invitation, leading the crew to debate the rules of being a unicorn. Between the relationship drama, the squad roasts Shaq for his supposedly "AI-generated" leaked DMs to Sabrina Carpenter and investigates why Whittier is using "Wall-E" robots to scan for sidewalk cracks.

Axel Geddes ACE, Tony Greenberg, Chloe Kloezeman, Geoff Sledge, Ayesha Johannes The Hoppers editing team of Axel, Tony, Chloe, Geoff and Ayesha understand better than anyone, that in the world of animation, creating a captivating film involves more than just drawing and animating characters. It requires a deep understanding of storytelling, editing, and collaboration. Not to mention the occasional party in the cutting room. Hoppers follows a young woman named Mabel Tanaka, an animal lover whose mind is transferred into a lifelike robotic beaver, allowing her to communicate with animals and save their habitat from human destruction, while inadvertently starting an uprising in doing so. AXEL GEDDES, ACE Axel Geddes joined Pixar Animation Studios in February 1999 as an assistant editor on the Academy Award®-nominated feature "Toy Story 2." Geddes went on to work as a second assistant editor on "Monsters, Inc.," first assistant editor on Oscar®-winner "Finding Nemo" and second film editor on Oscar®-winning feature film "WALL•E." He continued as a lead editor on two Toy Story Toons, the studio's Halloween television special "Toy Story of TERROR!" and "Finding Dory." He more recently served as Editor on the Academy AwardÆ-winning film "Toy Story 4," in addition to working on Pixar's "Lightyear." Geddes recently completed cutting Pixar's latest feature "Hoppers". Geddes was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. He studied filmmaking with an emphasis on editing at The Academy of Art University in San Francisco. He resides in the East Bay with his wife and their three children. TONY GREENBERG Anthony Greenberg (call him Tony) joined Pixar in 2002 as a Second Assistant Editor for The First Incredibles. His subsequent credits include serving as First Assistant Editor on WALL•E, and Second Editor on both The Good Dinosaur and Incredibles 2. Most recently, he served as the Lead Editor for Lightyear and as a Second Editor for Hoppers. Prior to his time at Pixar, Tony began his career as an Intern at Industrial Light & Magic, where he eventually rose to the position of Assistant VFX Editor. CHLOE KLOEZEMAN Chloé Kloezeman was hired as a temporary assistant editor in 2012 for the TV special, Toy Story of Terror. What was supposed to be 3 months turned into 14 years, and she's hoping that no one has noticed. She has Second Assistant Editor credits on Finding Dory, Coco, Toy Story 4 (and said TV Special), and two credits as a Second Editor (Lightyear and the new Hoppers). Working on Hoppers has been a highlight of her career. Kloezeman was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and is a UC Berkeley graduate. She lives in Oakland with her partner and two kids. GEOFF SLEDGE Geoffrey Sledge previously worked on live action features in New York, mainland China and Hong Kong. After returning to the States, he started at Pixar in 2013, first as an assistant on Coco. He transitioned into the Second Editor role while working on Hoppers. AYESHA JOHANNES Ayesha Johannes joined Pixar in the spring of 2016 as an Editorial Intern on Cars3. She then went on to become a second assistant editor on Luca and then Lightyear. She also worked as an assistant editor on two spark shorts at Pixar, PURL and LOOP. On Hoppers she was promoted to a first assistant editor and it has been her most favorite time at Pixar so far. Prior to her time at Pixar, Ayesha studied at the Academy of Art University and while there worked with a director on a Filipino short film called Christmas Bonus. She was born and raised in Mumbai, India and now lives in Oakland, California with her family.

Phil Iscove and Emily St. James continue their Pixar 2000s miniseries with a deep dive into WALL·E, Andrew Stanton's 2008 animated sci-fi romance about a lonely trash-compacting robot left behind on Earth.Joined by Justin and Laura Khoo, they break down the film's near-silent first act, Ben Burtt's groundbreaking sound design, the Axiom's consumerist dystopia, and why WALL·E may be Pixar's most political film. They also discuss its environmental themes, visual storytelling, and how it fits alongside Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, and Cars in Pixar's golden era.Is WALL·E the studio's boldest experiment? Its purest love story? Or both?Follow the Hosts & GuestsPodcast Like It'sInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil IscoveInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. JamesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsJustin KhooInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/juskhooLaura KhooInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/laurajeanettekhoo Hosted on Acast.

In this episode InShane and Jason discuss a couple of movies and Shane can't stop talking about AI. Does he have any idea what he's talking about? Listen in to find out! Just kidding, you already know he doesn't. And for the record....AI did not write this.
Kelly and Tammy explore Pixar's WALL-E, a film that dares to say almost nothing for the first forty minutes—and somehow says everything about curiosity, connection, and what it means to be alive. They talk about how the filmmakers watched silent films for months to learn how emotions work without dialogue, why a frictionless life is enfeebling, and what a lonely robot can teach us about slowing down and looking closer. It's about the magic of noticing small things and why the films WALL-E and Her both arrive at the same moral: meaningful connection is what saves us.

Vinnie is updating our vocab. Today's lesson is “Friction Maxing.” Life is getting too convenient as the 2ns half of Wall-E inches closer every day.
