You’re with a barista for 5 minutes. You’re at the hairdressers for an hour. Crew on a boat is stuck there mostly 24/7. Even if it’s contract work its clearly a different kind of job. Also, you should know your chef’s name after a coup

In the republican era realism was prized. Politicians wanted their portraits more warts and all to make them seem like one of the people. In the Imperial era propaganda changed and sculpture started becoming more abstract to make politician

The quality of TV writing has definitely improved in recent years. But we a have a new problem now. The producers still want the shows to run forever. Instead of telling discrete stories and wrapping them up in a season or two they try to k

This is one area I think Netflix format puts them at a disadvantage. At any one time how many shows does HBO have running the one person likes? A couple? But HBO stretches thoes shows out over 3 or 4 months. By the time those couple things

In the past Adobe’s competition wasn’t as good. Now, the competitors products are just as good. In the past PS competitors lacked features pros needed like PMS spot channels/CMYK/LAB. Not anymore. And Resolve is very compelling in

Except, if the only app you need is photoshop you can own Affiniy Photo for $30. Or, you can own Affinity Design for $30. And this one is the real kicker, Blackmagic is giving away most of what you need for free, and if you need more you ca

Its going to be a real problem for Adobe. Their biggest apps (PS/AI/IND) haven’t had real upgrade worthy updates in years. Competing apps like Affinity Photo are pretty much 1 to 1 replacements. Eventually some significant portion

If you play a video game does it ruin it for you that someone wrote the puzzles and you can turn it off at any time? Maybe you just don’t like puzzles.
