About this listen
The modern-day star-maker: TikTok.
Social media entertainment is today’s watchword. What started humbly in 2006 with YouTube has now proliferated into multiple global networking and marketing sites. When TikTok entered the niche, many of them were performing extremely well on the stage. In that context, TikTok performed admirably well.
Consider a new plant sowed on an unknown land becoming a giant tree full of bloom, supporting life and sustaining others in its neighborhood. Well, the analogy may not seem too strange when TikTok’s performance is surveyed. Like the tree that I talked about, TikTok not only supported earnest and interested newcomers in their endeavors, but it actually helped them to become famous. Its unique algorithm enabled them to display their creation to the world. The audience noticed two things about the performances—the performers were no celebrities, they were their own boys and girls, whom the world did not know anything about even a few days back. What they showed in their videos was not too difficult to understand. The language of humor—sometimes funny, sometimes satirical—is easy to understand. They portrayed their daily lives. It was surprising how in the midst of a depressing pandemic, they could retain and distribute their sense of humor.
Perhaps they, too, were waiting for a platform like TikTok to show the world what is the new concept of entertainment. But TikTok also helped them to earn, and sometimes more than their expectations. Indeed, it became a new avenue for alternate careers to many people, young and old. This audiobook is about TikTok, and how you can use it to have fun, create content, and earn money. What you can do with the app and the choices you have are limitless.
Well, now that you know that this audiobook is full of anecdotes and important information on how to kick-start your influencer journey, what’s stopping you from clicking that button? Go discover the amazing world of TikTok creators and how you can carve your own place among them!

On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Story
In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.

Story
Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

Nikola Tesla was a major contributor to the electrical revolution that transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of modern AC electricity, and contributed to the development of radio and television. Like his competitor Thomas Edison, Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, enjoying the company of New York high society and dazzling the likes of Mark Twain with his electrical demonstrations. An astute self-promoter and gifted showman, he cultivated a public image of the eccentric genius.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.
