Newspapers and Thinking the Unthinkable « Clay Shirky (744)
on
Clay Shirky (0) permalink
- Aaron Huslage said: A manifesto for a new reality.
- Nick Drandakis said: big changes stall, small changes spread
- Wilbert said: “When a 14 year old kid can blow up your business in his spare time, not because he hates you but because he loves you, then you got a problem.”
- Chris Roat said: +1 pragmatism.
- ka.johansson said: “When a 14 year old kid can blow up your business in his spare time, not because he hates you but because he loves you, then you got a problem.”
- Mac said: -- Amen. "... with the people committed to saving newspapers demanding to know “If the old model is broken, what will work in its place?” To which the answer is: Nothing. Nothing will work. There is no general model for newspapers to replace the one the internet just broke." ...
- Ade said: "The unthinkable scenario unfolded something like this: The ability to share content wouldn’t shrink, it would grow. Walled gardens would prove unpopular. Digital advertising would reduce inefficiency, and therefore profits. Dislike of micropayments would prevent widespread use. People would resist being educated to act against their own desires. Old habits of advertisers and readers would not transfer online. Even ferocious litigation would be inadequate to constrain massive, sustained law-breaking. (Prohibition redux.) Hardware and software vendors would not regard copyright holders as allies, nor would they regard customers as enemies. DRM’s requirement that the attacker be allowed to decode the content would be an insuperable flaw. And, per Thompson, suing people who love something so much they want to share it would piss them off."
- David said: By far the most cogent assessment of the newspaper industry's death spiral and what it makes clear about publishing in general.
- Mahesh CR said: Around 500 odd years of printing history used to muse about the fate of the newspaper industry. Sharing so I can visit this again and think through..do not miss.
- Salil said: More on the 'the newspaper business is broken' line of thought. Net, even a smart guy like Clay Shirky admits he has no idea how it will turn out. One compelling data point, though - printing and distribution accounts for 50% of a newspaper's costs. Is there an arbitrage opportunity that Kindle and other e-readers can grab? I don't know how they'll make money (online advertising?) but that could be a way to go.
- Mmmbacon said: Great article about newspapers current dilemma. Via waxy.org
- David Herrold said: With the old economics destroyed, organizational forms perfected for industrial production have to be replaced with structures optimized for digital data. It makes increasingly less sense even to talk about a publishing industry, because the core problem publishing solves — the incredible difficulty, complexity, and expense of making something available to the public — has stopped being a problem.
- nyenyec said: "Society doesn’t need newspapers. What we need is journalism. For a century, the imperatives to strengthen journalism and to strengthen newspapers have been so tightly wound as to be indistinguishable. That’s been a fine accident to have, but when that accident stops, as it is stopping before our eyes, we’re going to need lots of other ways to strengthen journalism instead."
- Bruce said: Lots of good stuff in here.
- imma said: eek, copyright, look out for that bus *ducks*
- Kevin said: This expresses my opinion far more comprehensively and elegantly than I ever could. (credit: Bone)
- Jason said: Lauren, you will hate this. But it's really interesting, and well-written.Particularly good quotes:"It makes increasingly less sense even to talk about a publishing industry, because the core problem publishing solves — the incredible difficulty, complexity, and expense of making something available to the public — has stopped being a problem.""Society doesn’t need newspapers. What we need is journalism...When we shift our attention from ’save newspapers’ to ’save society’, the imperative changes from ‘preserve the current institutions’ to ‘do whatever works.’"
- David said: One of the clearest, and most inspiring pieces on the future of newspapers I've read...
- Chris said: Good piece on the demise of newspaper and the resistance to it.
- Arne Roomann-Kurrik said: This was a great read- when we ask what the next business model for newspapers will be, are we asking the wrong question?
- Dan said: journamalism [shirky making the ruonds again]
- 狮子真好吃啊 said: 好长,待看
- Ric said: Clay Shirky on the fall of newspapers and the salvation of journalism ...
- Timothy B. Taylor said: Excellent analysis: "There is no general model for newspapers to replace the one the internet just broke." ... "'You're gonna miss us when we're gone!' has never been much of a business model." ... "Society doesn't need newspapers. What we need is journalism."
- Michael Meadon said: Net guru Clay Shirky on why newspapers are failing. An absolute must read. Srsly.
- Rex Hammock said: I know, I know. Everyone else in the new/old mediaosphere has already pointed to this article, but I wanted to add it to "my record" as well. A must read.
- Afront said: via Charlie Stross
- jenna said: long, worthy read.
- Pat said: read this for gems like this - "When reality is labeled unthinkable, it creates a kind of sickness in an industry."
- Kyle said: Oh snap -- this looks like it's worth a read.
- pberry said: I keyed in on that first para as well.
- Eric Eggert said: Gruber is spot on!
- tamihania said: "Round and round this goes, with the people committed to saving newspapers demanding to know “If the old model is broken, what will work in its place?” To which the answer is: Nothing. Nothing will work. There is no general model for newspapers to replace the one the internet just broke.With the old economics destroyed, organizational forms perfected for industrial production have to be replaced with structures optimized for digital data. It makes increasingly less sense even to talk about a publishing industry, because the core problem publishing solves — the incredible difficulty, complexity, and expense of making something available to the public — has stopped being a problem." - splendid point. Try to apply it to general economy as well...
- df said: A good read.
- Oskari Kettunen said: This bit has been linked to from every corner of the new for weeks now. But in case you hadn't noticed. Read it. Now.
- Abhishek said: Copyright sucks. It will eventually go away, making room for a new model that works for both - the (individual) artist and the society. But that new model is yet unknown. And till then, we'll just have to go through the bumpy struggle to find it and displace the other.
- B.J. said: A fascinating article about the death of news publishing as we know it.

The Pirate Bay Trial: The Official Verdict - Guilty (580)

Shared by David Cooke (7)- Frederic said: http://twitter.com/brokep/status/1540656280
- Bogdan said: Damn. N-as fi crezut
- ydant said: I'm a little iffy on this whole thing. Ultimately, the Pirate Bay WAS set up as a way to trade copyrighted goods. The owners have exhibited clear u nderstanding of what was going on and no effort to restrict that. I could easily see a "conspiracy to facilitate copyright infringement" type charge - assuming such a thing exists.Still, if the owners did no filtering at all of content (in the US that might be on the way to Common Carrier status and never provided the actual copyrighted data, then they haven't really broken any copyright laws. Yep, conspiracy is about all I see.The important thing as I see it is the courts don't really give a fuck about what's technically happening. It's more about intent and end result. That may or may not be right, but the guys' attitudes have been mostly "we're not actually distributing the files, but we'll certainly give you clear directions, wink, wink." That can't really sit well with the judges.
- iuri said: But as in all good movies, the heroes lose in the beginning but have an epic victory in the end anyhow. That's the only thing hollywood ever taught us.

- Mike Mol said: @marotti I disagree. It should be declared using a BigNum library. Come on; As the androids get smarter, they'll hit 2^31 quickly. And then 2^63, 2^45.I'll argue that running out of memory would be what does induce sleep. Therefore, being able to count arbitrarily large numbers is quintessential for an android to count itself to sleep.

- Mihai Tarmure said: funny, this is exactly how Steve Jobs would present the bailout plan at a keynote and NOBODY in the audience would appreciate the gravity of it
- Vivek Menon said: reminds me of the Verizon call and difference between 0.002 cents and 0.002$ LOL
- David Hall said: Mja, 0.002 dollar kan motsvara 0.002 eurocent någon gång i framtiden.
- Mike Mol said: I see someone noticed yesterday's BoingBoing post of one of his 2006 strips...
- Nate said: When the numbers are so large, it's true that the scale of bonuses people are complaining about are small. Nonetheless, when receiving such a huge bailout (it's called a bailout for a reason...they should be thankful), fiscal responsibility becomes not just an expectation but a requirement.
- Goosey said: Dishonest: acting like $165 Million is not a lot of money just because $170,000 Million is a lot more.
- cesaracardoso said: xkcd é FODA.
- bbebop said: ...
- DigDoug said: Dear News Organizations: If you're all ranting about the same thing, you're undoubtedly wrong, and there's more to the story.
- Randal Cooper said: Yeah, everyone already reads xkcd. The point still bears repeating.
- reverend0 said: Thank you. It is like those people who like to lie with charts by just shifting the scale of the graph.
- Randall Hand said: so true, so true.
- Bill O'Neill said: Good context- Edward Tufte would be proud!

- Vitor Peçanha said: Ah, os jornalistas
- Dave S said: OH XKCD. Nailed it! :mathgeek:
- Hrishi said: Media is getting increasingly stupid and dumb, when it comes to technical data. But this is taking yellow journalism too far ;P
- monsur said: I am not happy with the AIG bonuses, but this highlights the mathematical discrepancies in reporting the story. You can't argue with mathematics!
- ydant said: a-fucking-men. Yeah, it sucks that they are giving out the bonuses, but Obama should just stand up and say "I hate this as much as you do, but I love what America stands for more. The bonuses, while huge in comparison to numbers the average American is used to, are insignificant to the nearly 1 trillion dollars we are putting into this recovery. It is not worth giving up legal contracts and a fair legal system just to stop the flow of what is effectively pocket change in terms of the full amount being spent."
- brien said: I was just thinking about this yesterday. It's easy to forget just how much bigger a billion is than a million (a billion is a THOUSAND times bigger than a million)
- Matthew said: so true
- willer said: I'm baffled that the $170b is ignored. That's 99.9% of the total!Also, it turns out the $165m in bonuses are "retention bonuses" to keep people around during a big exodus, not performance bonuses.
- Ian Turton said: and it's an even bigger difference if being an European you were brought up to believe that a billion is a million million!
- Kraki said: @M: did you know if you hover your mouse over the picture, another message pops up? make sure you do it for this one, you just shared a story that references the same thing this does.

- Eater said: lol @ title text
- seano said: "The difference between a million and a billion is the difference between a sip of wine and 30 seconds with your daughter, and a bottle of gin and a night with her."
- Jez Arnold said: good point xkcd.. but why are they getting the bonuses anyway?? This is not a time to reward people who helped create this mess.

- wes said: Back to real news....
- Ryan Kolak said: lol.. awesome xkcd!
- luc said: While I don't agree with "bailout bonus" problem. This does put the total amount into perspective.
- Aaron said: no kidding
- Josh Miller said: This almost sounds like it’s defending AIG. The thing that’s more of a factor here is that 165 million dollars is easily the year’s sallary of 4000 people. Closer to 7000 if they are poor like me.Meanwhile people are being laid off left and right.
