For owners of Sinclair ZX Spectrum computers in the ‘80s, few games were more desirable than Matthew Smith’s Manic Miner. It is very much a classic and has official and unofficial ports available for just about every console and computer released since. There was even a port made for Microsoft’s Zune MP3 player. And now you can play it on an Arduino UNO thanks to Scott Porter’s custom game engine and port.

In 1996, Bill Gates wrote an essay entitled “Content is King” where he stated:
“Content is where I expect much of the real money will be made on the Internet, just as it was in broadcasting.”
That maxim is as true, if not truer, today than it was in 1996. In the intervening 27 years, the internet has expanded dramatically, and we have seen the rapid growth of social media, ecommerce, and other content-focused ventures. In fact, there are now 5.1 billion internet users and over 1.8 billion website users can access. In the last decade, social media platforms and apps have rocketed in popularity across all groups in society. Smartphones have made it possible for the average person to access the web almost constantly.

Ever since OpenAI’s ChatGPT launched on November 30, 2022, it has compelled pretty much everyone to tinker around with it and regale their near and dear ones with its impressive capabilities. Around February of this year, ChatGPT set the record for being the fastest-growing consumer application in history, having reached a staggering 100 million monthly active users merely a couple of months post its launch- a resounding testimony to its efficiency at capturing imaginations at large. While admittedly generative AI tools are still at a nascent stage, the immense possibilities that they pack have urged businesses, small, medium, and large, to incorporate it into their email copywriting scheme of things.

Reaching out to younger audiences If you want to achieve content optimization with young audiences, then it shouldn’t be too surprising that interactive content is a key component. With TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and the like rife among the youth of today, a newspaper ad in black and white that your grandmother might have spotted when she was looking for garden center deals ain’t gonna cut it.

Opinions: I think this is the modern generation expression of "yes, I am wrong, I should'nt have done what I did, but (even so you should'nt have done this or said this)/(I did'nt mean it this way or I did'nt want it to happen in this way)...". I feel that this individual is just trying to convey the fact that even though she or he does feel apologetic about what he or she has done, she feels that despite this, her mistakes does not negate the other party's mistake or she/he might have wanted to justify the reasons why she had done the things she had done, to avoid misunderstandingsa about the rationale of her actions. I do not feel that it compounds the problen, in fact I think that it makes a problem simpler, by clearing a misunderstanding. The problem might have been complicated earlier due to the misunderstanding, but once the misunderstanding is cleared, the problem is thus simplified.
Quote from the passage: “Please” and “Thank you.” Today’s economic downturn has spawned more cutthroat behavior with less time for courtesies.
Truth be told, with the same speed at which technology has swept the world, manners have been swept under the proverbial rug. I’m left wondering, is this rudeness the result of today’s angst or a trend of indifference that has evolved over time?
While it doesn’t take much effort to say “please” and “thank you,” some people forgo these pleasantries because they simply don’t know better, while others apparently feel these words are beneath their “pay grade.” How much effort does it take to show some gratitude for a job well done? (It’s not as if you’re being asked to solve world hunger.) The truth is, if you’re too busy to say “please” and “thank you,” don’t be surprised if others are too busy to help you in the future.
Opinions: I think this does not necessarily apply everywhere even though everybody's lifepace has quickened and this could be due to the environment in which one is working at. Also I feel that other than just looking at the surface of these issues, we should look into it and understand why it actually happens.
Firstly, I feel that it depends on the environment and the upbringing of the people. In working environments, where no common spirit are cultivated or not having a feeling of closeness with one colleagues may make certain people feel shy or not be able to relate to the people around them.
For example, if a healthy and a close-knitted working environment is cultivated, where everyone is friendly and close to each other, they will offer help in times of trouble or when one is busy due to the common spirit they share amongst themselves. And thus with this feeling of closeness people will not be as shy, as if they were strangers, to say "please" or "thank you" and the may understand each other better.
Next, a person's upbringing may also impact greatly on how they interact with other people. Regardless of economic downturn, or the quickening of life pace, if a person is not properly taught of basic courtesies and its importance since young, they may not be able to use such words to show gratitude to the people around them instead they may use other ways to thank others or they may not know how to ask a person nicely to do something, and end up commanding them. And yet the other party does not get feel that she or he has been mistreated as the person is asking of a favour without courtesy or that their help for that person had been ignored without understanding that the other party, the one without proper upbringing, had used other ways to thank that person. Thus family upbringing and teachers will have to play a huge role in cultivating a person, to ensure that that individuals will always be courteous no matter what happens, so as to ensure that people of the future generation will be able to interact and understand each other well enough such that everybody will feel respected.
