Some notes
A new fandom this month! Showtime SMP is new, bringing this up to 49 tags that I track.
Fics are still primarily in english, but we have three exceptions with significant spanish fics. Karmaland (750 of 857 are in spanish, from 740 last month), Tortillaland (109 of 115 are in spanish, down from 110 last month), and QSMP (827 of 8104 are in spanish, from 752 last month.)
QSMP also shows 43 fics in French, up from 39 last month, and 452 in Brasilian Portugese, up from 405 last month. While I did not check every language this month, I checked on the languages I knew had a fic in QSMP and we see 1 fic in ASL (probably a misclick as it appears to be in english), 1 fic in Bahasa Malaysia, 1 fic in Dansk (Danish), 1 fic in Deutsch (German), 1 fic in Esperanto, 1 fic in Filipino, 5 works in European Portugese, 2 fics in Polski (Polish), 7 fics in Русский (Russian) (up from 5 last month), 1 fic in Suomi (Finnish), 1 fic in Svenska (Swedish), 1 fic in Tiếng Việt (Vietnamese), and 3 fics in 中文-普通话 國語 (Mandarin Chinese, I believe). While a 한국어 (Korean) speaker was recently added to the QSMP, there are currently no fics in 한글 (written Korean).
In the small and micro-sized fandoms, several of the smaller fandoms posted a decrease, including Legacy SMP, Bear SMP, and Area Unknown. HBG, on the other hand, posted a frankly impressive 16-fic increase, and both New Life and Witchcraft saw a 8-fic increase.
In the mid-sized fandoms, the showstopper was Minecraft Diaries, which went up a staggering 140 fics, which makes me suspect a sub-tag got wrangled into them. Pirates SMP and Outsiders SMP both saw 20 fic increases, and Mystreet saw an increase of 24 fics.
In the post-canon big fandoms, Empires went up by 188 works, which is an increase on both January's 178 and December's 117, but not beating November's 240. Dream SMP's increase of 591 works is the single lowest number I've seen since I've started tracking tags, being exceeded by both January's 918 and December's 767, which were the first months I'd seen the increase being lower than a thousand. 3rd Life, now that we're outside of a season, posted a respectable 558 fics, down from last month's record high of 831.
In the currently airing big fandoms, Hermitcraft saw that new-season boom, as it posted 716 fics, not as high as January's 784 (holiday exchanges), but beating both December and November's 574 and 651. QSMP posted 729 fics this month, which is part of a four-month decline (865 last month, 894 the month before, 913 the month before), but is still the fandom with the single biggest increase over a month. Incidentally, that means that Dream SMP is beat by both Hermitcraft and QSMP this month, and 3rd life is close behind it.
Overall, the number of fics posted under Video Blogging-RPF (the umbrella fandom that contains all MCYT), is 3,513 fics, down from January's 4,223, December's 3,489, and November's 4,035. Incidentally, it's very close to what we saw last year at the same time, as February '23 saw a VB RPF increase of 3,674.

Do you guys think that Twilight Sparkle could've blackmailed Celestia into getting the wings? I mean, come on! How does that even work? How does a unicorn get wings? Unless there was some blackmailing I don't believe that she could've gotten them naturally
💎rarityonthedime
Well you shouldn't assume things! Though it was sudden finding out that she could get wings, it is entirely possible that through the magic of friendship, anything can happen, somehow!
🕶trendingtrends--deactivated
Okay I'm gonna be nice to you because you're a mare, but don't you think you should be working instead of thinking?
💎rarityonthedime
I'm not going to be nice to you, and as my little sister would say, L+bozo+your mother never loved you+you failed school+you have not paid attention to lessons+even I have more thinking capabilities than you could ever imagine+please think before you post+KYS (Keep Yourself Safe) because I will find you

Update: Celestia did it. I fell into a well after she accidentally (hopefully) threw me so that I couldn't be in her way while she was running from the hospital. I have a pet frog now

Been playing way too much Fire Emblem Awakening as of late, and have been envisioning my OCs having the support conversations like what is present in the games. I guess this counts as fanfiction of sorts? If you don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s an example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXYFS8eggUQ&t=567s
Have Some Abnur and Trechire Support Conversations
Abnur: Still holding on to your old habits? I would have thought the bear would be bald by now.
Trechire: He enjoys the brushing.
Abnur: Is it the same bear? Supposedly Wardens just summon them from thin air, but it’s never been explained to me if it’s the same bear each time.
Trechire: Usually, as the bear forms a bond with us, and so recognizes our call and beats out all other competition.
Abnur: Competition?
Trechire: Nature’s furry warriors love to help a Warden in need. It’s their way of showing off. So yes, when a Warden sends their summons, there can be competition.
Abnur: I always meant to delve further into the Warden’s teachings and abilities via our letters. They aren’t very plentiful in Cyrodiil, but gods we could use every edge possible. It gets more and more frustrating every time refugees get preyed upon by the wildlife.
Trechire: I wish you would have said something. I would have come.
Abnur: Not you. Any other Warden, but not you. I didn’t have time for you to pepper me with questions over the Amulet.
Trechire: And how often did I do that in our letters?
Abnur: …
Trechire: That’s what I thought.
Abnur: Regardless, I had every right to be cautious. Only a fool wouldn’t have been. Not to mention you were...not in the right state of mind. Your grief would have clouded your sense of judgement.
Trechire: Or sharpened it. Don’t lecture me like some child or incredibly lucky adventurer. I’ve been through enough to have learned from fatal, stupid mistakes. You were there for some of them. Not to mention I’m far more experienced at dealing with organizing and preserving groups of individuals- for far longer than you.
Abnur: Longer than me? I’ve had to wrangle all of Cyrodiil while stouts raided the henhouse that was the White-Gold Tower, for more than a hundred years.
Trechire: And here Hircine’s lead Alpha stands before you, having served for two hundred and thirty years.
Abnur: You’re two hundred and fifty some years old? Hmph, you look rather remarkable for your age.
Trechire: Thank you, young man.
C Rank Support Achieved
Trechire: The dragons aren’t very keen on laying low. The flying whelps just ravage the landscape with no regard for subtly or risk.
Abnur: They’re giant, naturally armored lizards that can Shout you to death. You expect them to have a concept of such things?
Trechire: I do, especially after we continuously put them down. Even the dumbest animal alive would know to avoid the claws after they’ve been struck by them twice!
Abnur: That many have been slain? Serves me right, neglecting to at least browse over the reports…
Trechire: Oh no, not by Elsweyr’s own. I’ve met with several other pack leaders about the dragons. We agree not only are they perhaps the best prey we’ve ever had the chance to hunt, but they also greatly threaten our territories. Packs have been regrouping, quickly learning how to kill these beasts.
Abnur: So this has officially become some sort of game to lycanthropes?
Trechire: Yes, and be glad for that. I was the one who rallied the packs into this. Thanks to their thirst for such glory, the dragons have been kept at bay from escaping Elsweyr’s borders. Or, at least far from Elsweyr’s borders.
Abnur: I should have realized that. With Cadwell’s constant chatter, Khamira’s vigilance over my every move, and Euraxia’s forces strutting around, flying Imperial flags and making a mockery out of us, I’m spread thin. I can’t be expected to handle everything, or to retain my usual sharp focus.
Trechire: Good thing you have me, then.
Abnur: Perhaps. First I’ll have to see how you handle some wine before bed, and then I’ll comment if you’re worth all the animal fur left all over our equipment.
Trechire: We’re working with khajiit, you know?
Abnur: It isn’t khajiit fur. I’ve checked. I don’t even want to know how or why you brought a pony inside our barracks, just don’t make it a habit!
B Rank Support Achieved
Abnur: Just tell me what you want. I’m too tired to wait around for you to work up the nerve to ask in your own time.
Trechire: Pardon?
Abnur: You’ve been staring at me for the past five minutes. Whatever it is you want, just spit it out. We have dragons literally breathing down our necks.
Trechire: I… was just reflecting on how far you’ve come. You’ve proved to be a good man, Abnur.
Abnur: ...
Trechire: But that’s what concerns me. I’ve seen many prove their worth, but they never survive through their redemption.
Abnur: Redemption? Just what was it I did that I am now redeeming myself of?
Trechire: You placed trust in Mannimarco, even if a small measure of it. I’m not judging. I...I’ve done far worse, and faced the consequences. Rest assured, we’ll save Tamriel just like we did before, but this time no one has any reason to distrust you.
Abnur: I think Khamira disagrees.
Trechire: She’s young, and still bleeding from the loss of her parents, home, stability… If she was totally together, she’d be equally as hostile towards me. I helped you, supported you, in releasing those dragons. Sithis knows, I was the one who did most of the dirty work!
Abnur: Yes, but you have that Galerion charm. I’m certain your father could set fire to the nearest forest, turn around and smile, then easily talk his way out of any charges or suffer any reputation loss. How did the puddle-scrying necromancer put it? “Galerion knows how to warm a heart, so he can easily manipulate and maintain it.”
Trechire: *laughter*
Abnur: That doesn’t offend you?
Trechire: Not at all. It isn’t wrong. Where do you think I learned my diplomacy and persuasion from?
Abnur: Hilarious, but are we done here? We both have more important tasks to attend to.
Trechire: I’m proud of you. That’s all I wanted to say.
Abnur: You can coo at me all you like later tonight, but for now, let’s not get so sickeningly sweet, shall we?
A Rank Support Achieved
Trechire: What are you doing here? I thought you were leaving?
Abnur: Officially, I left. I told you, I hate parties, not to mention others might start trying to embrace or praise me, much alike you or, worse, Cadwell. But I wasn’t going to leave without finishing what I started.
Trechire: Oh?
Abnur: Would you accept this?
Trechire: A ring? Wait- the gems, those are bits of Welkynd stone!
Abnur: I didn’t think you’d care for a traditional Ring of Mara, given your beliefs, so I had to improvise.
Trechire: ...A Ring of Mara? This… Oh.
Abnur: It stings that you didn’t see this coming.
Trechire: Well, actually...it stung when you left, because… I had had this waiting back in our quarters here for you, after the coronation.
Abnur: You bought a Ring of Mara?
Trechire: I personally hold no regard for the divines, and I know you don’t either, but I thought you’d prefer to stick to tradition.
Abnur: For a two hundred and fifty nine year old mer, you certainly don’t act your age. Buying a ring for me. You should have known better.
Trechire: And miss your face growing this lovely shade of red? Or the chance to prove I’m long past my days of being intimidated by such things? But the fact of the matter is- I love you, Abnur, and for however long it is Tamriel allows us to still draw breath, I want to spend it as your wife.
Abnur: ...And I would gladly spend that time as your husband. Just so you know, however, I didn’t ask for your father’s blessing, and I wasn’t going to propose some grand wedding-
Trechire: Thank Sithis for that! You’d have given him a heart attack, and can you imagine the crowd we’d draw for a full, proper wedding? I can already hear Vivec sobbing obsessively, and loudly enough that no one can hear the vows being exchanged.
Abnur: Just a private exchange of vows, within one of these temples. But for validation, I have the documentation all ready to go for proof of marriage. We just need witnesses.
Trechire: I absolutely adore you.
Abnur: Restrain yourself until after the ceremony. I know that’s an impossible struggle, but know that I have faith in you, my love.

Thrillerstruck - What to know
Meet the trolls | About the ask blog | Main art blog
Got a question that’s not on here? send it to the blog and we’ll answer!
What is Thrillerstruck?
Thrillerstruck, or simply thrillerstuck, is a fan adventure comic based off of Andrew Hussie’s webcomic Homestuck. Thrillerstruck takes places in a completely different timeline and universe to Homestuck, and has it’s own original plot. Thrillerstruck still classifies as a fanventure, as the concept of sburb and the alien race trolls are all included in the story.
What is the plot of Thrillerstruck? (short version)
Thrillerstruck follows the story of four kids from the future who play a game called sburb and are guided by ‘sponsors’ who are an alien species, trolls. The trolls claim to have a book that has every single detail of the kids’ session written down. However, the book fails to mention the part of the session where everyone falls asleep for 567 years and they almost wipe everything from existence.
What is the plot of Thrillerstruck? (LONG version)
Thrillerstruck follows the story of four kids who live in a Earth set a few decades ahead of us. In 2021, the discovery of life outside our planet was made, and an alien species named Trolls made contact with us. The trolls were ... too far to reach us, so we could only communicate - and thankfully, as humanity is not quite ready for a troll invasion. Over the years though, the humans and trolls forged a friendly alliance, and began sending each other tech and exchanging information about the species’ lifestyle. By 2033, troll culture is largely normalised on Earth and it seems that humans’ prefer it that way.
The story truly starts when the trolls send a ‘secret weapon’, aka sburb, to the humans, but only certain people can access it. By certain people, you guessed it, it’s only accessible by the four kids.
It’s around this time the trolls of our main cast, a network of eleven specifically chosen trolls who work with the empress, begin to contact them, warning them of what to come but also informing them of the fact that them playing the game is inevitable. So the kids enter the game.
The game is not a doomed session or a void session, it’s actually just... normal. The trolls lead them through easily with the help of a pre-written description of everything that occurs in the session, until they hit a bump. The book describes the trolls and humans meeting, which then causes the trolls to admit something they’ve known the entire time: They don’t exist in the same universe. The trolls are actually the product universe of the kids session, and are using advanced technology given to them by the kids to communicate with them.
Annnnd I think revealing any more would be massive spoilers, but here’s some hints: a willingly created boss, gays, death, paradox shit, and awkward family ties. It’s cool.
Can I read Thrillerstruck if I haven’t read homestuck?
If you really want to, yes, but there would be a lot of concepts that might not make sense. If worst comes to worst, you can google stuff.
How long is Thrillerstruck?
Don’t know! It definitely will not be as long as homestuck, but the plot is quite complex and I’m only writing act one just now, so there’s not a solid answer. The only thing I can confirm is it will probably be more than a thousand pages long, and have more than three acts.
When will act one be out?
Again, no idea! I’m writing each act fully before posting them, so after the act is finished being written, around 1-3 updates will come out each day with the illustrations. In the meantime, while I’m finishing up act one this ask blog will be open so you can get to know the characters and plot. Keep in mind, act one will actually be quite short in comparison to the following acts, so I don’t think the wait will be horribly long!
Who are the characters?
You can find info on the main 12 trolls here, but the kids do not feature on this ask blog (unless it’s relevant to the question). The four kids are half siblings Lacy Barosa and Leon Caliso, and (unknown to them) ectobiology siblings Kane Altshul and Deea Whitler. Art of Lacy and Leon can be found here, art of Deea here and here, and poor ol Kane hasn’t been posted anywhere yet. RIP Kane.
Who runs this blog?
In terms of story? The blog is Cylene’s idea, created by Miocep and run by Visana, Naveen, Levian and occasionally Miocep himself. If a question is not specified towards a specific troll, one or more of those trolls will answer it. While the answers they give are canon, technically this blog isn’t. It won’t be mentioned within the story, nor will it affect it.
In terms of like, actual real ass person, the creator, writer and artist of Thrillerstruck, that would be me, Jake. Main blog here and art blog here.
That’s pretty much all you need to know about the blog! Have fun!

Global Economy Expected to Grow 6% This Year, I.M.F. Says: Live Updates Here’s what you need to know: The I.M.F. forecast for global economic growth has climbed to 6 percent for the year.Credit…Andrew Harnik/Associated Press The global economy is recovering from the coronavirus pandemic faster than previously expected, largely thanks to the strength of the United States, but the International Monetary Fund warned on Tuesday that major challenges remained as the uneven rollout of vaccines threatens to leave developing countries behind. The I.M.F. said it was upgrading its global growth forecast for the year thanks to vaccinations of hundreds of millions of people, efforts that are expected to help fuel a sharp rebound in economic activity. The international body now expects the global economy to expand by 6 percent this year, up from its previous projection of 5.5 percent, after a contraction of 3.3 percent in 2020. “Even with high uncertainty about the path of the pandemic, a way out of this health and economic crisis is increasingly visible,” Gita Gopinath, the I.M.F.’s chief economist, said in a statement accompanying the fund’s World Economic Outlook report. The emergence from the crisis is being led by the wealthiest countries, particularly the United States, where the economy is now projected to expand by 6.4 percent this year. The euro area is expected to expand by 4.4 percent and Japan is forecast to expand by 3.3 percent, according to the I.M.F. Among the emerging market and developing economies, China and India are expected to lead the way. China’s economy is projected to expand by 8.4 percent and India’s is expected to expand by 12.5 percent. Ms. Gopinath credited the robust fiscal support that the largest economies have provided for the improved outlook and pointed to the relief effort enacted by the United States. The I.M.F. estimates that the economic fallout from the pandemic could have been three times worse if not for the $16 trillion of worldwide fiscal support. Despite the rosier outlook, Ms. Gopinath said that the global economy still faced “daunting” challenges. Low-income countries are facing bigger losses in economic output than advanced economies, reversing gains in poverty reduction. And within advanced economies, low-skilled workers have been hit the hardest and those who lost jobs could find it difficult to replace them. “Because the crisis has accelerated the transformative forces of digitalization and automation, many of the jobs lost are unlikely to return, requiring worker reallocation across sectors — which often comes with severe earnings penalties,” Ms. Gopinath said. The I.M.F. cautioned that its projections hinged on the deployment of vaccines and the spread of variants of the virus, which could pose both a public health and economic threat. The fund is also keeping a close eye on interest rates in the United States, which remain at rock-bottom levels but could pose financial risks if the Federal Reserve raises them unexpectedly. Mickey Mantle’s 1952 Topps rookie card is one of the most sought-after cards. While a Mantle with a rating of SGC 7 like this one is valuable, a version of the same card rated PSA Mint 9 recently sold for $5.2 million.Credit…Jeenah Moon for The New York Times Topps, known for its trading cards and Bazooka gum, is going public by merging with a blank-check firm in a deal that values the company at $1.3 billion, the DealBook newsletter was the first to report. The transaction includes an investment of $250 million led by Mudrick Capital, the sponsor of the special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, along with investors including Gamco and Wells Capital. Michael Eisner, the chairman of Topps and former chief executive of the Walt Disney Company, will roll his entire stake into the new company and stay on. “Everybody has a story about Topps,” Mr. Eisner said. That’s what initially attracted him to the trading card company, which he acquired in 2007 via his investment firm, Tornante, and Madison Dearborn for $385 million. Buying Topps was a bet on a brand that elicits an “emotional connection” as strong as Disney, the company Mr. Eisner ran for 21 years. In the years since Mr. Eisner’s initial purchase, Topps has focused on a shift to digital, starting online apps for users to trade collectibles and play games. It also created “Topps Now,” which makes of-the-moment cards to capture a defining play or a pop culture meme. (It sold nearly 100,000 cards featuring Bernie Sanders at the presidential inauguration in his mittens.) And it has moved into blockchain, too, via the craze for nonfungible tokens, or NFTs. The pandemic has driven new interest in memorabilia, especially trading cards. Topps generated record sales of $567 million in 2020, a 23 percent jump over the previous year. The secondhand market is particularly hot, with a Mickey Mantle card recently selling for more than $5 million. “Topps probably made something like a nickel on it, 70 years ago,” said Jason Mudrick, the founder of Mudrick Capital. NFT mania will allow Topps to take advantage of the secondhand market by linking collectibles to digital tokens. Topps is also growing beyond sports, like its partnerships with Marvel and “Star Wars.” It continues to see value in its core baseball-card business, as athletes come up from the minor leagues more quickly. “The trading card business has been growing for the last several years,” Michael Brandstaedter, the chief executive of Topps, said. “While it definitely grew through the pandemic — and perhaps accelerated — it did not arrive with the pandemic.” That resilience is part of the bet that Mudrick Capital is making on the 80-year old Topps. It’s a surer gamble, Mr. Mudrick said, than buying one of the many unprofitable start-ups currently courting SPAC deals. “Our core business is value investing,” he said. Air France is considered too big to fail in its home country, but the company’s debt has ballooned during the pandemic.Credit…Christian Hartmann/Reuters Air France on Tuesday said it would receive a new bailout from the French government worth 4 billion euros ($4.7 billion) to help the beleaguered airline cope with mounting debts as a third wave of pandemic lockdowns around Europe prolong a slump in continental air travel. The support comes on top of €10.4 billion ($12.3 billion) in loans and guarantees that Air France and its partner, the Netherlands-based KLM, received from the French and Dutch governments last year. Air France-KLM chief executive, Benjamin Smith, citing an “exceptionally challenging period,” said the funds would “provide Air France-KLM with greater stability to move forward when recovery starts, as large-scale vaccination progresses around the world and borders reopen.” Bruno Le Maire, France’s finance minister, said Tuesday that the new aid is taking the form of a state-backed recapitalization, which involves converting €3 billion in loans the government granted the airline last year into bonds with no maturity, as well as €1 billion in fresh capital through the issuance of new shares. The French government is the airline’s largest shareholder, at 14.3 percent. The agreement could allow the government to raise its stake as high as 30 percent, Mr. Le Maire and Air France said, by buying some of the new shares. China Eastern Airlines, also a large shareholder, will also participate, Air France said. Air France-KLM lost two-thirds of its customers last year, and its debt has nearly doubled to €11 billion. It expects an operating loss of €1.3 billion in the first quarter. As vaccinations speed ahead in the United States, air travel has started to recover, fueling a return of ticket sales. Delta Air Lines announced it would add more passengers and start selling middle seats for flights starting May 1. By contrast, Europe’s vaccine rollout has faltered and variants of the virus have gained ground, prompting renewed travel restrictions. That has left major flagship air carriers, including Air France-KLM, Lufthansa of Germany, and Alitalia of Italy, struggling. The French government recently cut its economic growth forecast for 2021 to 5 percent, down from 6 percent. Air France’s board approved the deal on Tuesday after the French government and European regulators agreed on the terms. The Dutch government is holding separate talks with European regulators over converting a €1 billion loan to KLM into hybrid debt in return for slot concessions at the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. Air France employs tens of thousands of workers in France and is considered too big to fail. Still, Mr. Le Maire said the aid was not a “blank check,” adding that the company would have to “make efforts on competitiveness” in exchange for the support and must continue to reduce its carbon emissions. To conform to European competition rules, Air France was forced to relinquish 18 slots per day, representing nine round-trips, to competing airlines at Orly, Paris’ second-largest airport after Charles de Gaulle. United Airlines is the first major U.S. carrier to run its own pilot academy.Credit…Chris Helgren/Reuters United Airlines said on Tuesday that it had started accepting applications to its new pilot school, promising to use scholarships, loans and partnerships to help diversify a profession that is overwhelmingly white and male. The airline said it planned to train 5,000 pilots at the school by 2030, with a goal of half of those students being women or people of color. The school, United Aviate Academy in Phoenix, expects to enroll 100 students this year, and United and its credit card partner, JPMorgan Chase, are each committing $1.2 million in scholarships. About 94 percent of aircraft pilots and flight engineers are white and about as many are male, according to federal data. United said 7 percent of its pilots were women and 13 percent were not white. Airlines have had more employees than they needed during the pandemic, when demand for tickets fell sharply, and they have encouraged thousands, including many pilots, to retire early or take voluntary leaves. Since September, nearly 1,000 United pilots had retired or taken leave. Last week, the airline said it would start hiring pilots again after stopping last year. But the industry is facing a long-term shortage of pilots because many are nearing retirement age and many potential candidates are daunted by the cost of training, which can reach almost $100,000 after accounting for the cost of flight lessons. United is the first major U.S. carrier to run its own pilot academy, although many foreign airlines have run such programs for years. The company said it hoped the guarantee of a job after graduation would be a draw. In addition to the 5,000 pilots it plans to train, United said it would hire just as many who learned to fly elsewhere. United Aviate is meant for people with a wide range of experience, from novices who have never flown to pilots who are already flying for one of United’s regional partners. A student with no flying experience could become a licensed pilot within two months and be flying planes for a living after receiving a commercial pilot license within a year, the airline said. Within five years, that person could fly for United after a stint at a smaller airline affiliate to gain experience. The airline said it was also working with three historically Black colleges and universities — Delaware State University, Elizabeth City State University and Hampton University — for recruitment. The first class of 20 students is expected to start this summer. Tucson is building on a five-year growth plan that predated the pandemic. “We’re working together as a region,” Mayor Regina Romero said.Credit…Rebecca Noble for The New York Times Some midsize cities — like Austin, Texas; Boise, Idaho; and Portland, Ore. — may be poised to rebound faster than others because they have developed strong relationships with their local economic development groups. These partnerships have established comeback plans that incorporate a number of common goals, like access to affordable loans, relief for small businesses and a focus on downtown areas, Keith Schneider reports for The New York Times. In Tucson, the revitalization plan, which goes into effect this month, calls for assessing the effect of the pandemic on important business sectors, including biotech and logistics. Other provisions advocate recruiting talented workers and preparing so-called shovel-ready building sites of 50 acres or more. City leaders are building on a five-year, $23 billion growth plan in industrial and logistics development in the Tucson region that resulted in 16,000 new jobs before the pandemic, according to Sun Corridor, the regional economic development agency that sponsored the recovery plan. Caterpillar and Amazon moved into the region, while Raytheon, Bombardier and GEICO were among the many prominent companies that expanded operations there. Other cities are struggling to recover after pandemic restrictions emptied their central business districts. The question is how much these downtowns will bounce back when the pandemic ends. “The number of square feet per worker has declined really dramatically since 1990,” said Tracy Hadden Loh, a fellow at the Brookings Institution. Couple that with recent announcements from companies like Google, Microsoft, Target and Twitter about remote work, and some cities could see less office construction activity. Credit Suisse’s offices in Zurich. The bank said it would hire outside experts to investigate what led to losses tied to its involvement with Archegos Capital Management and Greensill Capital.Credit…Arnd Wiegmann/Reuters Credit Suisse said Tuesday it would replace the head of its investment bank and the chief of risk and compliance after losses from its involvement with Archegos Capital Management, the collapsed hedge fund, totaled nearly $5 billion. The bank, which is based in Zurich, is in turmoil after a series of disasters that have battered its reputation and are likely to diminish its global clout. Credit Suisse also serves as a warning of the risks that may lurk in the financial system, as bankers and investors try to earn returns when interest rates are at rock bottom and stock values are already frothy. Credit Suisse detailed the financial impact of its dealings with Archegos for the first time on Tuesday, saying it would report a loss for the first quarter of 900 million Swiss francs after booking a charge of 4.4 billion francs, or $4.7 billion, related to the hedge fund. The losses were higher than some estimates. Brian Chin, the chief executive of Credit Suisse’s investment bank, will leave on April 30. Lara Warner, the chief risk and compliance officer, will step down immediately, the bank said. Members of Credit Suisse’s executive board will forgo their bonuses for 2020 and 2021, the bank said. Credit Suisse will also cancel plans to buy back its own shares, a way of pushing up the stock price. But the bank, seeking to dispel any questions about its overall health, said its capital was still at levels considered acceptable. Credit Suisse shares were down more than 2 percent in Zurich trading early Tuesday. They have lost one-quarter of their value since the beginning of March. Thomas Gottstein, the chief executive of Credit Suisse since last year, said the bank would hire outside experts to investigate what led to the “unacceptable” loss from Archegos as well as the bank’s involvement with Greensill Capital, which collapsed last month. Credit Suisse’s asset management unit oversaw $10 billion in funds that Greensill packaged based on financing it provided to companies, many of which had low credit ratings. “Serious lessons will be learned,” Mr. Gottstein said. A Starbucks cafe in Seoul.Credit…Ed Jones/Agence France-Presse — Getty Images Starbucks says it plans to eliminate all single-use cups from its South Korean stores by 2025, the chain’s first move of this sort as it seeks to reduce its carbon footprint. The coffeehouse chain plans to introduce a “cup circularity program” in some stores beginning this summer, in which customers would pay a deposit for reusable cups that would be refunded when the containers are returned and scanned at contactless kiosks, the company said in a statement on Monday. The arrangement will be expanded to cafes across the country over the next four years. “Starbucks Coffee Korea is a leader in sustainability for the company globally, and we are excited to leverage the learnings from this initiative to drive meaningful change in our stores and inform future innovation on a regional and global scale,” Sara Trilling, the president of Starbucks Asia Pacific, said in the statement. South Korea has in recent years tried to cut back on disposable waste in cafes, banning the use of plastic cups for dine-in customers in 2018. Legislation introduced last year would require fast food and coffee chains to charge refundable deposits for disposable cups to encourage returns and recycling. Last year, the environmental ministry said it planned to reduce the country’s plastic waste by one-fifth by 2025. The increased use of plastic packaging and containers amid the coronavirus pandemic has been a setback for initiatives aimed at reducing single-use plastic waste. In March 2020, Starbucks and other chains said they would no longer offer drinks in washable mugs or customer-owned cups to help prevent the spread of the virus. Investors have been focused on the Biden administration’s infrastructure spending plan, which includes money to encourage investment in renewable energy, including wind turbines.Credit…Mike Blake/Reuters U.S. stocks were expected to fall on Tuesday, with the S&P 500 index set to pull back slightly from its record high. Nasdaq futures were 0.2 percent lower. The S&P 500 climbed above 4,000 points last week for the first time amid signs that the economic recovery was strengthening, with manufacturing activity quickening and the biggest jump in jobs since the summer. The United States is administering three million vaccines per day on average, but the number of coronavirus cases has started to tick up again because of the spread of new variants. That said, many investors have focused on the vaccine rollout and the potential impact of the Biden administration’s large spending plans, including the $2 trillion American Jobs Plan, intended to upgrade the nation’s infrastructure and speed up the shift to a green economy. “Investors should not fear entering the market at all-time highs,” strategists at UBS Global Wealth Management said in a note on Tuesday, recommending stocks in the financial, industrial and energy sectors. The reopening of economies because of the vaccine rollout also favored small and medium-size companies, they wrote. The yield on 10-year Treasury notes was little changed at 1.7 percent. Oil prices rose. Futures of West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. crude benchmark, rose 2.5 percent to just above $60 a barrel. Europe The Stoxx Europe 600 index rose 0.7 percent to a record high in its first day of trading since Thursday because of the long Easter weekend. In Britain, mining companies led the FTSE 100 higher, which was up 1.2 percent. The DAX in Germany rose 0.9 percent. Credit Suisse shares were up 1.3 percent even as the Swiss bank said it was set to lose nearly $5 billion because of the fallout from the collapse of Archegos Capital Management and that it was replacing its head of risk and compliance and the investment bank chief. Last month, Credit Suisse shares dropped nearly 25 percent after the collapse of Archegos, a New York-based hedge fund. Credit Suisse also lost money from its involvement in the Greensill Capital, which filed for bankruptcy last month. Shares in Air France-KLM fell 0.7 percent after Air France said it would receive a bailout from the French government worth 4 billion euros, or $4.7 billion. The French and Dutch airlines received more than 10 billion euros in state support last year. Asia Source link Orbem News #Economy #expected #Global #grow #IMF #Live #Updates #Year

Content: Working in a beach town, casual flirting, slight awkwardness, fluffy fluff
Author’s Note: I wrote this while bored working at the tiniest store ever. Also, my first Pristin writing, yay!!!
Downsides to your summer job in the smallest store in existence: it's cramped, all the tech is old, kids come mess up the store all the time. Upsides to the job: you get paid, you get to do whatever you want because only one person works there at a time. Oh yeah, and the hot girls that worked next door. What was once one of the millions of ice cream shops was now a café, named "Pristin" and the only people they hired were high school and college girls. The café mostly sold breakfast foods and coffee, but was also open for lunch and dinner. Today you were working the day shift and you realized another downside. The smell of breakfast wafting from next door made your empty stomach hurt. You had been in a rush to get out the door due to your own laziness this morning and had no time to eat, only time to grab some water and leave. And now you were paying for it. You couldn't leave the store to go get food so you just sat in torture waiting for things to do to distract yourself. Which wasn't much because it was dreary outside and the store was pretty clean when no one comes in. You were starting to go a little delirious when someone came in. You looked up and smiled at the person before you registered who it was. The girl was slim, one of those naturally skinny people. Her waitress apron was still around her waist and her shirt read "Pristin" on her left chest. Her smile was dazzling as she smiled back at you. You sat up straighter. You both exchanged hellos as her eyes looked over the wall of various video game characters and then over the wall of jewelry and accessories. "You guys are really going for that strict gender roles thing," she commented. You couldn't help but laugh lightly at the comment. "Some people still believe it's a thing, apparently." She laughed a bit and picked up a cloth headband. "Sorry to be a part of the gender binary, but I need this for work." You looked up at her perfectly placed hair and raised an eyebrow. "You do?" You asked skeptically as you rang up the headband. She pointed to her black bangs. "They get a little in the way." After handing you the money, she pulled off the tag and put the headband on. "As expected, just as pretty," you muttered under your breath to yourself. "Thank you." She winked at you as you handed her the change. You couldn't help the blood that rushed to your cheeks. "How long do you work today?" She asked you. "Until 6, so about 5 more hours," you said. Just then your stomach rumbled loudly, giving away your secret. "Do you need to eat?" She asked. "Oh I'm fine," you lied, not wanting to make a big deal of it. "I could bring you something from the café." "Really?" "I mean you'd have to pay for it but yeah." You laughed. "Okay. Sounds good to me." "Just a minute," she said, jogging out of the store and coming back with a menu. "Hi, my name is Minkyung, and I'll be your waitress for today. How can I help you?" Upsides to working at the tiniest hole in the wall: a pretty girl brings you food

Fulham 2-0 Everton: Tom Cairney and Ryan Babel see already relegated side heap misery on visitors
Scientists were dizzy this week with excitement about photographic evidence of a black hole, an entity whose appeal is so great is
Fulham & # 39; s goal mouth this season looked like something like being sucked ball after ball. Here at Craven Cottage we witnessed our own phenomenon.
For the first time in 2019, Scott Parker's side kept a clean slate. After winning two or more goals in their previous 13 games and having suffered nine consecutive losses, they won.

This was Fulham & # 39; s first appearance since their demotion from the Premier League was confirmed. Maybe to know that their fate had taken away the pressure that had tormented them this season.
On paper this should have been simple. Everton pursued a fourth consecutive victory, after beating three London clubs in Chelsea, West Ham and Arsenal without disrupting.
Fulham would represent fishing in a barrel, but the Cottagers were the ones who came out of the shooting range. Within the first five minutes, Aleksandar Mitrovic scored twice on goal.
Moments later, Mitrovic received his third attempt. This time he had used his power to shake his marker in Phil Jagielka, but goalie Jordan Pickford was happy to see his shot directly at him.

Fulham's fans were in a happy mood, just as they were during their 4-1 defeat to Watford last week.
In the 20th minute we saw why they are ready for the second phase. Bernard took the ball and no player tried to close it. His next shot was saved by Sergio Rico.
Mitrovic then came close to scoring again. He stuck his head to the corner, but Pickford could tilt it with a somewhat dramatic dip in the air.
By the half hour, Fulham had tried five times, all through Mitrovic. The 24-year-old Serbian – a West Ham target this summer – caused all kinds of problems.
How, against a team that had allowed 76 goals in this match, most by a club in all European elite competitions, were they the ones on the ropes?

In the 42nd minute, Mitrovic came to the end of the impasse with this effort – but his header was saved well by goalkeeper hit a curling shot of 15 yards. Pickford was a spectator because the powerful attempt defeated him but not the woodwork. That was shot number seven of the striker.
The visitors had been paintless to say the least. There was no imagination, no fire in their stomachs. Richarlison had done little, while Dominic Calvert-Lewin had been anonymous
Whatever Silva did not have the desired effect.
Babel played a one-two with Mitrovic before squading the ball to Cairney, whose left foot shot of 18 yards defeated Pickford in the bottom corner.

Referee Lee Probert decided to add eight minutes extra time.
Andre Gomes should have seen red when the midfielder, clearly frustrated and well aware of what he was doing, stamped on Mitrovic. Probert missed it, but VAR would not be next season.
At the end, Everton couldn't make a late comeback. Finally Fulham had their first clean slate since December and their fans had a reminder of what it was like to win.

'UnREAL' Boss on Getting the Show Back on Track in Season 3 After Creative Backlash From Fans (Exclusive)
UnREAL is righting the ship.
It's been 567 days since the provocative Lifetime drama -- about two women pulling the strings behind the scenes of a Bachelor-type dating show, Everlasting -- last aired on TV, and the prolonged hiatus may have been a blessing in disguise. UnREAL made a splash in the summer of 2015, earning critical acclaim and Emmy nominations for its commentary on modern-day feminism and for creating two of strongest female anti-heroes in Shiri Appleby's Rachel and Constance Zimmer's Quinn in recent memory.
The reaction to its divisive second season, however, was less rosy. Crippled by an overabundance of storylines, lack of focus and controversial hot-button issues (see: the Black Lives Matter-inspired police shooting episode), there was a sense that UnREAL had succumbed to the feared sophomore slump. The events of the finale were, in a way, reflective of the rocky season that was: Rachel's ex, Jeremy, kills two characters in a fatal car crash, leaving the fate of Everlasting in limbo. "There were a lot of plot points that we didn’t get to fully sit with," showrunner Stacy Rukeyser tells ET. "That is what we have a great opportunity to do in season three."
The new 10-episode season doesn't undo what went wrong creatively, but instead rectifies mishaps by leaning into the manipulation and bringing the focus squarely back on Rachel and Quinn. Unlike the first two installments, season three sees Rachel and Quinn wrangling a suitress, a beautiful, successful Silicon Valley venture capitalist named Serena (Caitlin FitzGerald), who has her own ideas on what needs to be done in order for her to find a husband on Everlasting. Ahead of Monday's season three premiere, Rukeyser sat down with ET to reflect on the lessons she learned from a the problematic sophomore season, how a suitress switches up the game and why Rachel will always side with Quinn, like a moth to a flame.
ET: You’ve said that there was too dramatic of a pendulum swing from the first season to season two in terms of the show’s creative approach. How are we going to see that reconciled in season three?
Stacy Rukeyser: There were a lot of plot points that we didn’t get to fully sit with and have the repercussions for these characters and the emotional effects. That is what we have a great opportunity to do in season three. When we looked at starting this season, I really sat in the hearts and in the souls of Rachel and Quinn. In particular, for Rachel, what she needs to deal with is what Jeremy did at the end of last season and what her own personal responsibility is in that. Did she or did she not produce Jeremy to do that? (In the season two finale, Jeremy causes a fatal car accident that kills Everlasting producer Coleman and contestant Yael, aka “Hot Rachel.”) When Jeremy comes back, he’s gotten sober and he’s gone through anger management, and Rachel does not take responsibility for that. That is a big part her journey for this season. She’s gone off to a goat farm and pledged essential honesty, but she’s not really being honest with herself and she has to unpack why that is -- why she is the way that she is. Quinn hires a real shrink Dr. Simon (played by Brandon Jay McLaren), a “real a** shrink” as we call him, and he helps Rachel go on that journey to look at where her darkness comes from. These are the emotional character arcs that are the essence of this season and the table was set by the plot points that happened at the end of last season.
Shiri Appleby told us last August that she believes season three is “much stronger than it was in the second season.” What specific conversations did you have with Shiri and Constance Zimmer about any concerns they had creatively about season two that you wanted to avoid moving forward?
We didn’t really have creative conversations with them until I had a season to pitch to them, and then they were very excited about what it was that we were going to do. We certainly heard the criticisms and certainly looked at them, but all I can do as a writer is try to write from a truthful place and I couldn’t ignore the plot points that had happened in the second season and pretended that they never happened. I had to write from that place and deal with it in a truthful way, but I also had the opportunity to bring in a female suitress, which really had nothing to do with what we had done in the seasons before.
What did you want to bring to the conversation by introducing a suitress on Everlasting instead of featuring another suitor?
It’s a real opportunity to talk about gender politics in this country. I feel personally that a smart, strong woman is one of most frightening things to a lot of people in America. When we started writing the season and creating this character, Serena, everybody thought that Hillary Clinton was going to be president so there was a thought of like, “Really, is this still an issue?” But I saw the vitriol that Hillary Clinton experienced on the campaign trail and it became so clear to me that it was a real issue and an interesting one to explore. For me personally, I experienced what Serena experiences in the sense that my career was going really great, I was working my way up the ladder and the further I got, the harder it became to find a guy. That’s what’s happened to Serena, so much so that she’s decides to come on a reality show to try to find a husband -- that’s what it’s come to. It’s a chance to look at why is that, how are women supposed to be. We’re supposed to be “You go girl!” and aggressive at work and demanding more and more for ourselves, and then when we go out on a date, we’re supposed to turn completely into a different person, into a demure, more traditional, feminine type who allows a man to take the [reins]. Serena becomes an avatar for Rachel and Quinn. So much of the reason that Rachel brings Serena in is to prove to Quinn that she is lovable.
It’s one thing to say, “I’m fine on my own. I don’t need any of that because I have my career and my career is going great.” But in order for that to happen, your career really has to be banging and Quinn’s is not at this point. The show is about to be canceled, her career is taking a personal hit and Rachel sees that. She is trying to make a point to Quinn, which is made a little bit more challenging by the fact that Chet has a 24-year-old swimsuit model girlfriend.
How are you using this season to comment on the struggles that many successful working women face in the real world when it comes to finding love? Do you provide an answer by the end of the season or does it remain an ongoing question?
I don’t know that we provide an answer. I think that the answer is it’s challenging and it’s complicated. Feminism is complicated; who we are supposed to be as women these days is complicated. It’s not just about how should we be so that men like us, it’s also what kind of a man do we want to have? Part of what Serena has to figure out is does she want the alpha male who would be a person just like her and they would be a power couple or is it better for someone like her to be with a more beta guy who will let her be the star? What is the right choice in this day and age when so many more women are the primary breadwinners in the family? Just talking about those issues and telling those stories is new and revolutionary and a conversation we should be having.
UnREAL has always been about the different relationships between the women on the show: Rachel and Quinn, the female contestants on Everlasting. With a suitress now front and center with male contestants, how has that shifted the focus in that department?
That was a big part of the show. One of the big thematic things that we talk about is how toxic these shows really are -- how they pit the women against each other and how we as an audience get off on that. It also looked at the princess fantasy: All of these women are competing for a man, the man is the prize and you need to be skinny and look good in the hot tub, not talk too much about work, be desirable and not mind that he’s dating 20 other women at the same time as you. And he should, in exchange, pick you up in a helicopter and take you to Bali for dinner -- and that’s what romance look like. It’s true that we don’t have that [this season] and the men are, to a certain extent, harder to produce. It looks at it through a different frame: What do these men think about Serena and what do they think about having to compete for her affections? Why are they there? Who is sincere and who is not? And how humiliating is it, on some level, for a woman to feel like this is her best option of finding a husband?
Season 3 of 'UnREAL' centers on 'Everlasting's' first female suitor, Serena (Caitlin FitzGerald, far right), a successful Silicon Valley venture capitalist.
Lifetime
At the start of the new season, many of the characters, especially Rachel, find themselves in completely different places, whether it be professionally or personally -- a rebirth of sorts. What challenges face them as they try to stay on a path that they're not as well-equipped to stay on?
For Rachel, it's very hard to be essentially honest because your job, by definition is to produce people which, in our world, means lie to them, manipulate them, get them to tell the story that you want. Rachel comes back thinking, nope, I'm going to do this job but I'm going to stay essential honest but by episode three or four, she is faced with a situation where it's Serena or Quinn. And any day of the week, she's going to choose Quinn over anyone else.
Even after all the stunts Quinn has pulled?
Quinn and Rachel are the central love story of the series. You could also say it's a co-dependent relationship, but they are drawn to each other. For Rachel, the struggle is can she do her job and be honest? That will prove impossible. How will she deal with that? At the same time that she's going on this journey with Dr. Simon to unravel her past and why it makes her feel good to do the things that she does, she has to understand all of that. Quinn is going to do everything it takes to get her career back and her show back and her empire, in that she wants to be Shonda [Rhimes]. Chet has to come to terms with whether "easy" is really what he wants and if that is satisfying at the end of the day.
Speaking of Quinn, Madison seems to have her eye on becoming Quinn 2.0 and sleeping her way to the top. Is that Madison's trajectory this season?
Madison is very ambitious and she's always looking for a way to get to the front of the line. She believes sleeping her way to the top is the way to do that. What's cool, you'll see, is when Quinn finds out about what she's doing and what her reaction is. One of the things that is really important to us -- the stereotype is that women don't support each other at work and it's cutthroat -- we have a twist on that that's really interesting to me. I believe that Quinn really loves Rachel, that even Rachel is doing these challenging things that there's a reason for it, at least Quinn believes, but that at the soul level, she loves Rachel. Now here's another female producer coming along and it's interesting to see what she does with Madison.
Jeremy's arc has been perhaps the most interesting one to follow since season one and it's fair to say the character has been put through his paces. Are you viewing season three as a rehabilitation of the character?
I don't know that I necessarily thought of it as a rehabilitation season, but I do know that in terms of what Rachel has to deal with in getting honest and straight with herself, Jeremy was essential to that story because he's the only person who can be there to say, "You told me to do this." He has gotten sucked into this world even more so because he's in love with Rachel and to his lowest point, which is the end of season two, where he, because he thought he was saving her and because he thought she was asking him to, he killed two people. He has to come to terms with that. He's never going to be able to forget that. He is going to have to live with himself. He needed to be there as a tough reminder to Rachel that she can't get away with what she is saying is the truth now.
From the first two episodes, Serena is proving to be a suitress with her own plan and agenda. How are Rachel and Quinn navigating
It's really important to Rachel that Serena is the feminist suitress. She's making a statement but not having a demure kindergarten teacher. The fact that this is a strong career woman makes a statement to Rachel. Quinn could not care about that kind of stuff. She wants a great season, she wants great ratings. Serena is insecure enough about being single in her 30s to be vulnerable when things don't go her way and the men aren't as immediately taken with her as she'd hoped. She goes down the road that Chet takes her own, in terms of saying, "This is how a woman should be," and that's horrifying for Rachel -- and Quinn, to a certain level. In the early part of the season, it's much more a battle between Rachel and Chet over which version of a woman Serena should be and if she should be her true self, which is strong and smart. Rachel develops a real personal relationship with the suitress and doesn't want to push her to do certain things and truly wants her to find the right person. She's more unwilling to do things to Serena than normal and more unwilling to do the things that Quinn wants her to do to get the story and the ratings.
The season also toys with the future of Everlasting and the fact that it is on the verge of cancellation. Have you seriously toyed with the idea of having UnREAL without Everlasting?
(Laughs.) People talk about that. Everything is up for discussion. The point about Everlasting possibly being canceled... I felt that when a contestant and a producer are in a car crash at the end of a season, that it would at least be put on hiatus for six months and maybe not come back. I do think that talking about relationships and men and women has been such a part of the fabric of UnREAL since the beginning, but look, at its heart it's a story about Quinn and Rachel. And wherever Quinn and Rachel go...
So it doesn't exactly matter if Everlasting is the show within UnREAL, as long as they're somehow involved.
Yeah, sure. It could be anything! But I also feel like there are many seasons left in the Everlasting format. Until men and women figure it out in the real world, we'll have stories to tell. (Laughs.)
Season four is already in the can and you're just now launching season three. How strange has it been to go back to stuff you filmed over a year ago? Did you view it as a gift to film back-to-back seasons without audience reaction?
I definitely viewed it as a gift and a real vote of confidence. Season three was my first as the showrunner so for Lifetime to like it so much to pick the show up for a fourth season before they even saw how the critics felt or how the ratings were was phenomenal. The only hard part for us that we were so excited about the season we shot that we wanted people to see it. It's true, we didn't get to see how people were responding to how Rachel and Quinn were, but we had ideas that were exciting to us [for season four] that didn't have anything to do with season three. It's a whole new game of stories we wanted to tell.
UnREAL premieres Monday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Lifetime.

UC Berkeley Develops New Blockchain Lab – Steve Chen as Industry Co-Lead
UC Berkeley Develops New Blockchain Lab – Steve Chen as Industry Co-Lead
UC Berkeley has launched its new Blockchain Lab, a space for students to discover and work with real-world blockchain technologies and use cases. Co-leading this lab is Steve Chen, creator of EchoLink, a qualifications-authentication Blockchain project.Whiles working with a mobile technology firm in NYSE as an engineering manager, Chen saw an opportunity in building value and efficiency by using the blockchain technology to record and store credentials of engineering graduates, giving birth to EchoLink. As he co-leads Berkeley’s Blockchain Lab, the founder is expected to use his entrepreneurship and enterprise technology experience to lead students into the future of Blockchain.
The Berkeley Blockchain Lab has ambitions to match
At the helm of affairs at Berkeley’s Blockchain Lab is Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology (SCET). The SCET, to provide a better blockchain environment, will give a unit to students of UC Berkeley to help them use EchoLink’s project to gain technology and entrepreneurship experience and credentials.
Since its inception, SCET has provided strong foundations for Berkeley to thrive in the entrepreneurship ecosystem by instituting projects such as the Fung Institute for Engineering Leadership, the Global Venture Lab, SkyDeck, and the Engineering Leadership Professional Program among others.
Berkeley’s Blockchain Lab has big ambitions to achieve. Populating its first project ecosystem will involve the development of Decentralized Applications (DAPPs) by leveraging blockchain technology and Ethereum. At the core of this will be:
Off-Chain Data Inputs
Distributed Storage and
Web-Based Blockchain Query Systems.
Secondary to these are the building and deployment of Dapps capable of processing large amounts of data, as well as developing credential-based applications such as decentralized degree certificates and reducing the cost of running Dapps.
So does EchoLink
Though the partnership offers UC Berkeley’s students a blockchain playing field, EchoLink has equal ambitions to achieve. EchoLink seeks to create a parameter that can measure the quality of education across the globe and with consistency.
How? The startup is developing a utility token, the EKO, which will serve as a medium of exchange on EchoLink. The token, among other functions, will be used to pay for fees and transaction costs among participants and serve as a standard token in the international educational ecosystem. Data providers of EchoLink, who are made up of students and schools from different origins (private, public, and alliance blockchains), will also get EKO as a reward.
UC Berkeley’s Blockchain Journey
“Once a new technology rolls over you, if you’re not part of the steamroller, you’re part of the road”
Steward Brand.
UC Berkeley wants to be controllers of the steamroller and it’s an institution that knows how to play the game. It first came up with the “DeCal”, a 2-credit Blockchain course, which gained strong backing from the 567 ‘Blockchain at Berkeley Student’ community. It is a blockchain community with Slack Channels, physical meetups, and a closed Facebook group where everything about blockchain is discussed and developed. In March 2016, Berkeley launched a competition titled; The Blockchain Technology Collider’ which saw students from finance, engineering, mathematics, and economics all participating to win the $5,000 prize that was kept on the competition. And it was a success.
On a cultural note, Berkeley is a strong educational institution that will surely bring innovation in this field. With its strong reputation in computer science and over 20 Nobel Memorial Prize Laureates in Economics, there’s no doubt its students will occupy the blockchain development and economic sector in future.
Know of any other institution that is pushing the blockchain technology to new heights? We’ll like to know more.
