Time flows so fast that habits and things change faster than decades. We gotta adapt all the time – due to the fact that everything is different than before. A tiny selective summary (I encourage you to add your types) – which was different 10 years ago...
Home work, not offices. That's what got the pandemic, did it in a flash, and for now... irreversibly. In the past, office work was treated as sacred, and work at home was seen as an different phenomenon for which approval had to be obtained. any companies have only experimented with “hot desks” (they have given up assigning employees to desks and rooms), but alternatively due to the large share of trips and meetings with clients outside the office. The pandemic has overturned everything and work at home (gat at the bottom, shirt at the top) is standard for everyone. We are so utilized to it that we even accept progressive absorption (why wash as I don't go to work), fresh forms of clothing (pajamo-garniture) and even the threat of strong intellectual changes and self-insulation – but we mostly work (in these competitions we can) from home. Up to 2/3 or 3/2 systems can be considered and periodic gathering of colleagues in the office, but with resistance. So long traditions of doing nothing at work, cool names with cake and tea or any another excuses to not work – due to the fact that we had nothing to do in the office – now we work (but we don't work) from home. Companies that adapt to this (task working methods) win and even praise – reducing office space and truly different office functionality – these are not staff rooms, but a kind of "front end" organization, an area for meetings with customers or interior teams, and the real usage of "hot desks" for those who are about to join the office. General effect – positive, but sometimes it is worth coming to this office.
The hard lives of presidents and prime ministers and the occupying of parliament buildings. A decade ago, certain political areas were considered sacred. Even if it was hot during the elections, then power changed democratically and any cultural principles were binding. present the example of the largest countries (US, Brazil) is rather different – elections are 1 thing, but the mess must be. Riots linked to the business and plunder of parliaments and government buildings are becoming the standard. The outgoing presidents (US, Czech Republic) or prime ministers and ministers, do not live peacefully at all, due to the fact that searches, charges and then court cases are not only standard Latin American, but all countries of the world. Politics has always been dirty, but now dirt is washing in public and with a tug. The overall effect – weak, especially as the elections will shortly be in Poland.
Money printing is simply a fresh field of economics. Again, it can be said that things utilized to be different – at least in economics there was something like an "economic law to preserve mass" – money comes from the effects of work, so alternatively it should be spent carefully. presently there is simply a “new economy” – money comes... from the printer. The medicine for problems (especially with the support of government authorities) is simply a methodology known from Venezuela or erstwhile Argentina – to distribute increases or make any more mythical funds. The function of the state is changing widely – the memory of Margaret Thatcher and her fundamental foundation of politics has long gone, that the state does not have its own money but money from its citizens. Now it is rather the other – the state is simply a kind of "good grandparents" bringing envelopes to the Christmas tree, but besides all fewer months. Grants, subsidies, guarantees, special-purpose funds, allowances – replace average pay systems, and taxes change in specified an innovative way that it looks like everyone pays little and there is more taxation money. No 1 is connected with income and work anymore, due to the fact that it is known that money can be made virtually, and the statistic of state spending is not a strict discipline (as the Greek authorities erstwhile argued), but a flexible strategy of hiding receipts in drawers and "minutes" that we do not show outside. The overall effect – a decade of heading towards disaster – is worth going to Wikipedia and tracking Venezuela's economy (especially after 2010) which begins to be a "new model of metro" for a large number of countries and their governments.
In the media you can say any nonsense And there's no problem. The process has accelerated in fresh years and actually covers the full of media communication – both about all celebrity ointments and all political ointments. fewer people already remember Illona Staller – a porn star born in Hungary who made as 1 of the first Marianes of the erotic sector with politics (at least she showed it publicly) and got into the Italian Parliament (as Cicciolina). Ilona was known for her appearances consisting of all unveiling of a crucial bust in front of the camera (after which it was no substance what she said to the microphone) and even ran over the full term. It can besides be said that the show was besides present in Polish politics and in the 1990s in the form of the Polish Beer Party, or in the United States erstwhile moving for governors of many show wrestlers. The difference was in the past, and yet it was, due to the fact that in the past the media did not take pranks seriously only as a kind of interlude in average news. The sign of the times is that today, it's the pranks that are part of the speeches of all politicians, and now watching the media, we're actually waiting for specified a break to get individual to say something rather average and meaningful. Unfortunately, the function of the media is devastating – due to the fact that erstwhile there were no apparent Facebooks, curses or nonsense, and politicians themselves (or celebrities) had even a minimum level of self-esteem and decency, present for money everything will go loose. The general effect – if we accept it, let us thank ourselves and our journalists (this profession should most likely change its name by now).
Plus... the muzzle media. In the past, press articles (e.g. the Watergate scandal in the Washington Post) exposing the crimes of politicians overturned the Presidents and brought the Pulitzer Prizes to the inquisitors. Today, first of all, it does not affect anyone (you can say any nonsense, but you can and can tell the truth, and then you can deny and say any nonsense). Secondly, after a “problematic” article, you can always change... a writer or editor-in-chief or yet close the paper or change the radio and tv station. A common strategy (many countries) blocking media either by muzzle (market elimination) or by additional karma and appeasement will have dramatic consequences in the future. The method already applied in many countries to control or even block media through muzzle (market elimination) or through additional karma and appeasement will have dramatic consequences in the future.
The fresh generation stops communicating decently with politics and the planet of news, and any deficiency of independent supervision is not only a problem of the formation of absolute power, but of the perversion of governments. all organization without nonsubjective criticism and without listening to criticism becomes perverted and moves towards degradation, so it destroys itself. The overall effect – degrading, the end of the 4th power will bring the ends of its successive elements.
The school teaches everything but what it needs. "The Republic will be like their youths hiding" – a quote from the boring art of Kochanowski, however, is in memory of school years and like all ageing individual I look with small joy at the education system. This time, unfortunately, it is true. European investigation confirms a gradual decline in the results of intelligence tests of the next generation of fresh students, which may be as I wrote in the past as a consequence of a change in our strategy of life, and possibly besides a dramatic collapse of education. I do not mean absolutely return to the old system, but just any deficiency of change and adaptation to fresh trends. The deficiency of individualization, adaptation of cognition areas (and levels of teaching) to individual students, completely obsolete and irrelevant in the present planet ranges of cognition to teach and yet treating students as free cogs like from Pink Floyd's album and movie – that's not even everything. The teacher's profession itself becomes synonymous with low wages, uninteresting careers, anguish and displeasure – which clearly results in all parents fleeing the public school strategy into the private sector (this is most likely 100% of the anticipation of utilizing parents' financial resources). General effect – according to Kochanowski.
Daily life... like a minefield. The fast improvement of digitalisation, unfortunately, brings a flood of threats – you should be alert at all step. Plague, or possibly the everyday life of the current decade – fraud of accounts and information through emails and SMS messages is standard. Trying to bargain money from bank accounts and cards becomes everyday. Slowly, it begins to be safer to walk overnight in dark alleys with a pack of bills in your pocket. I am always amazed by the slow consequence of services and rights to threats – all of this is always a fewer steps backwards. I have always argued that it may be worth to shift any of the work for cybercrime to start false SMS messages on mobile operators. After all, they behave a bit like a barrier – allowing you to send false SMS messages, but besides taking the charge – most likely financial work – would surely automatically put a barrier even on the first line. You request to be alert everywhere, due to the fact that you besides request to take advantage of any promotional offer (television, internet, telephone, digital services) are apparent fees right after the promotion time is over and then you charge the next charge. In the fresh digital planet of services, people from old times feel like an ancient forest duke mastered by villains and predatory animals – you gotta keep your eyes around your head all the time, and blackheads hidden deep. The overall effect – evolution in the direction of adaptation, number on yourself – if you do not aid yourself, no 1 will aid you.
Speculation bubbles and Ponzi pyramids, but painted in more technological colors. This has been in the past of humanity always since (although Dutch tulips in the 17th century), but in this decade it has acquired a fresh "technological" cut. Even in communist times there were speculative pyramids in Poland – after an early series of innocent “letters and chains of St. Anthony” (it was essential to rewrite the letter and send to 10 of their friends – and something good was to happen, and it increased the usage of postage stamps and envelopes). Somewhere in the late 1970s Poland took over a large wave of the financial pyramid (pay a certain amount of money and suck in a certain number of friends, and they will pay you and gain themselves). Subsequent variants repeated in many countries and in subsequent decades (gold in Poland, Madoff for elite investors in the US), but in fresh years it has changed into a large bubble of cryptocurrency. Here the fresh component is the link between virtual gains and value growth with technology and adding respective names (blockchain) and complex method translations that do not explain anything with innovative currency names (some even being a gag to begin with). It turns out that present the more unusual the better and global pyramid has taken over the full planet (with any problems in the last year). The overall effect – the weirder the better, the bubble will always crack, but individual will come out with money
All for money... but how about ESG? Subsequent years and decades seem as always more commercial, and more bastions of things fall that seemed impossible to sale only for money. Virtue, morality – this was yet for sale for a long time, and a good name, credibility and compliance went up in smoke about 40-50 years ago. The money and the financial consequence as the basic determinant of business activity – this is seen in the proceedings against customers, where the basis is "net margin" and what peculiarly hurts – the best offer is not addressed to old and loyal customers (they are ripped to the skin), but only to fresh ones. It is besides not so crucial to build a brand and name in the long word – in the end, companies can easy merge, buy, sale and primarily transform into something fresh (and this can be promoted quickly). The old logos and colors can be replaced and promoted again (with a peculiar offer). The only swallow in the planet of heartless korpo is the ESG – attention to environmental issues, cooperation with the environment, assistance to others and compliance with ethical regulations. Is it temporary fashion or a deeper trend? The overall effect – if the ESC works it may change.
War as the Acceptable Action of the Stronger. Clausewitz's motto that "war is simply a continuation of politics by another means" has never been so recent. The last decade and first 2014 in Crimea and then the Russian invasion on February 24 last year showed that something that seemed impossible... is actually happening just outside our house. If Putin's current statements and his supporters were quoted by individual a decade ago—it would have been considered a complete fantasy, due to the fact that accepting brutal, forceful aggression cannot take place in the modern world. Meanwhile, a part of countries, a part of societies and the majority of Russians themselves consider it something wonderful, sublime and acceptable, and killing civilians, the death of thousands of soldiers, the demolition of buildings and factories – this is simply a average policy. It's really... The planet went crazy and we dropped the epidermis of civilization again in any insane momentum to self-destruct. The overall effect – if it is not stopped, the planet will truly cease to exist.
