Everything Everywhere Daily - DEFCON
Historically, an army would have days, weeks, or even months to prepare for war.
However, with the development of intercontinental missiles and nuclear weapons, the time for preparation was reduced to hours or even minutes.
In light of these changes, it was necessary to develop a system that allowed for rapid mobilization and readiness.
Learn more about the DEFCON system, and the history of its level changes, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

This Machine Kills - 63. Prime Labor, Living and Dead (patreon teaser)
In part two of our analysis of Amazon, we focus on the labor processes and managerial practices within Amazon warehouses. “Factory work exhausts the nervous system to the uttermost,” Marx wrote in Capital Vol. 1, and through the despotic discipline of dead labour used to dominate living labour, capital “does away with the many-sided play of the muscles and confiscates every atom of freedom [from workers], both in bodily and intellectual activity.”
Some stuff we reference:
