David Klein's TWA Posters (2018)

news.ycombinator.com Rob Baker 2025-10-30 12:27:33

The illustrator and artist David Klein is best known today for his glorious posters for the Howard Hughes owned Trans World Airlines in the 1950s and 1960s. TWA at the time was one of the world’s most well known and admired airlines. It became the first airline to hire an African-American stewardess, the first to show in-flight movies and one of the first to start using the Boeing 747 or the ‘Jumbo Jet’ as it quickly became known. In 1962, TWA opened their revolutionary and still acclaimed JFK t

Does Steven Spielberg’s ‘AI: Artificial Intelligence’ Play Differently Today?

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-18 11:00:42

Rewatching Steven Spielberg’s 2001 film AI: Artificial Intelligence, it feels as plausible as ever, but also more misguided. In 2001, AI was barely a thought in everyday life. It was the thing that destroyed the world in Terminator, and still a lofty goal in tech circles. Today, as the technology continues to grow and dominate daily conversation in almost every way, you may expect to watch the film and have a slightly new perspective. Some change in insight. Instead, the film falters as Spielber

It can hold six divers and all their gear, but this morning, there are only six of us—no gear. Far from being divers, we are curiosity seekers from New York, Vancouver, London, and Montreal, all obsessed with the sinking of the Empress of Ireland, which claimed 1,014 lives in 1914. Until a few years ago, I had never heard of the Empress and its disastrous end. And that’s staggering, be

The Download: China’s winning at advanced manufacturing, and a potential TikTok sale

In 2013, a trio of academics showed convincing evidence that increased trade with China beginning in the early 2000s and the resulting flood of cheap imports had been an unmitigated disaster for many US communities, destroying their manufacturing lifeblood. The results of what they called the “China shock” were gut-wrenching: the loss of 1 million US manufacturing jobs and 2.4 million jobs in total by 2011.

In Brief The VCs, pod bros, and self-proclaimed “besties” of the All-In Podcast launched their own tequila brand Saturday night and it promptly sold out, according to liquor ecommerce sites. Their version of the Mexican spirit cost a jaw-dropping $1,200 apiece but only 750 bottles were made. The stacked poker-chip container was inspired by the “besties” love of the card game. The All-In Podcast is one of the most popular shows by venture investors who have turned to politics. The besties cons
