Ci siamo, gli audiolibri tornano alla carica anche da noi. Ma in realtà cosa sono e cosa vuol dire ascoltare un libro anziché leggerlo?

Money quote: "“I was a fan of audiobooks, but I always viewed them as cheating,” says Beth Rogowsky, an associate professor of education at Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania."

Tra l'altro, l'articolo offre una buona prospettiva anche su come funziona il rapporto del lettore con il libro elettornico rispetto a quello cartaceo. Ma tutto l'articolo è abbastanza notevole, se non altro perché piomba come un falco in uno spazio sostanzialmente vuoto (a parte il marketing di chi produce ebook e adesso audiolibri).

Money quote: "If you’re wondering why printed books may be better than screen-based reading, it may have to do with your inability to gauge where you are in an electronic book. “As you’re reading a narrative, the sequence of events is important, and knowing where you are in a book helps you build that arc of narrative,” says Daniel Willingham, a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia and author of Raising Kids Who Read. While e-readers try to replicate this by telling you how much of a book you have left, in a percentage or length of time to the end, this doesn’t seem to have the same narrative-orienting effect as reading from a traditional book."

Non ho capito se la misofonia esiste o è una psicosi americana, però alcune cose di cui parla qui io me le ritrovo (per certe tipologie di rumore)

Money quote: "Misophonia, also known as selective sound sensitivity syndrome, starts with a trigger. It’s often an oral sound — the noise someone makes when they eat, breathe, chew, yawn, or whistle. Sometimes a small repetitive motion is the cause — someone fidgets, jostles you, or wiggles their foot."

Articolo vintage: rivedere per capire. Tesla: come finirà? È una lezione che vale per molti altri

Money quote: "Meanwhile, the people who are first to bring the disruption to market may not be the people who end up benefiting from it, and indeed the people who win from the disruption may actually be doing something different - they may be in a different part of the value chain. Apple pioneered PCs but lost the PC market, and the big winners were not even other PC companies. Rather, most of the profits went to Microsoft and Intel, which both operated at different layers of the stack. PCs themselves became a low-margin commodity with fierce competition, but PC CPUs and operating systems (and productivity software) turned out to have very strong winner-takes-all effects. Being first is not the same as having a sustainable competitive advantage, no matter how disruptive you are, and the advantage might be somewhere else. "
