Would it? Another way to word this might be "Platform with 8,000,000 monthly streamers/listeners pays less than platform of 1,000 subscribers to view pictures."

I don't think this individual's identity enters into it at all. That sentiment comes across as a deliberate, mean-spirited attempt to denigrate this person.

Whether or not selling pictures of one's anatomy is a viable career, or a morally questionable career, or any questions along these lines are a separate discussion. This article to me points out the drastic discrepancy in two services, yet again calling attention to the issue of artists and their earnings when utilizing Spotify as a distribution platform.

Oh absolutely. I started with 3rd grade, doing that for three years. Then I jumped to 5th, did that for three more. One in 7th/8th science before moving out of the classroom to a technical instructor which was awesome until the horrible admin came in. I loved those earlier years, but the school I left has gone downhill drastically.

Yes I could see this. There's little intrinsic motivation displayed in the students I've seen/taught/worked with. After 10 years in education, I left due to revolving door administration. Shelf life of a principal seems to be 3 years max, before they're on to the next rung of their career ladder.

Actually making it to level -1 in SMB after finding out how to do it from the TV show Video Game Power. I needed my NES Advantage to do it reliably, but it blew my mind to learn it was legit.

Personally: to live in nice midrise in a walkable European city with a remote job I enjoy and two friends to hang out with.

Globally: for people to stop actively seeking ways to harm each other and just be cool already.

I'm a big fan. Have rewatched the series a few times in recent years after only catching it randomly as a kid in the 80s. Highly recommend Shooting Columbo if you're interested. Great website too pointing out interesting aspects. https://bonaventurepress.com/SHOOTING-COLUMBO/

Always wondered about this. Article is pay-walled though.
