This would certainly solve the problem where smart kids go to good but expensive schools, and then take on garbage consulting jobs so that they can pay off their loans.
I was in Lucerne, Switzerland in 2017 and during a morning jog by the lake, I saw a sign in English and Chinese that said don't feed the ducks. Later that afternoon when I walked by the sign, I saw a group of at least 40-50 tourists feeding the ducks next to the sign. Maybe people just let loose when they're abroad because the government is so strict when they're home?
6 years ago I used to live in a rent-controlled studio apartment on the Upper East Side. There was a very old woman who lived alone in the apartment above me and one night I saw her eating out of the trash. New York is a tough place to be.
this means nothing. The lady can simply have dementia or something like this and even having a loving family and a nurse taking care of her, she still could have eaten from trash.
The new logo makes them look like a boring, stuffy company that caters to enterprise clients. Of course they chose this branding, but maybe this is also what they deserve?
I feel like a lot of my friends who are about to start a family or get married have started moving away from big cities like NYC, SF and LA. You just end up wanting a bigger place, a quieter street, and proximity to a Trader Joe's.
Netflix is churning out TV shows at an astonishing rate, some are great, most aren't. This has lead me to avoid clicking on thumbnails that have "Netflix" written on them unless I've already heard of the show.
Netflix is good at making shows that are satisfying to watch, but hardly interesting or innovative. It's like ordering fast food. Hope they don't do this to their movies.
My fear is that Netflix is trying to hit the level of content volume where they no longer have to license shows/movies belonging to other studios/networks. They can finally turn into their own silo.
While Netflix's original content initially yielded huge hits (House of Cards, Narcos, Stranger Things), it's purely a game of quantity over quality now.
There is also the risk of Netflix falling into the same trap that Spotify is in now, being pigeonholed as focusing only on a certain type of "chill" music because that's what listening data points to. Netflix's selection would be awful if they created long-term commitments for shows that reflect today's tastes, and not necessarily what tomorrow will bring.
