Given the orthodox nature of industry, exp creatives are often conformist. Novices aren't the key factor here; non-conformist design is.
Important study:
"Most surprising of all though, was that the films by novice filmmakers that were supported by a Studio significantly outperformed the films of experienced filmmakers by a factor of 3 to 1. The films by novice filmmakers were also more likely to screen at a high profile international film festival."

“An American company that paid the now indicted FBI informant Alexander Smirnov in 2020 is connected to a UK company owned by Trump business associates in Dubai, according to business filings and court documents. […] Alexander Smirnov was paid $600,000 in 2020 – the same year he allegedly began lying to FBI about Bidens’ role in Ukraine business.”

Republican lawmakers in Kentucky on Friday 🌟removed the Democratic governor from any role filling future U.S. Senate vacancies 🌟
— a move supporters said was unrelated to recent scrutiny about the 🔸health of the state’s senior senator, Republican leader Mitch McConnell.🔸

Kentucky GOP lawmakers remove Democratic governor's role in filling US Senate vacancies
Republican lawmakers in Kentucky have removed any role for the Democratic governor in filling a U.S. Senate vacancy. The GOP supermajority Legislature on Friday easily overrode Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto of the measure. The legislation calls for a special election to fill any Senate vacancy from the Bluegrass State. The special election winner would hold the seat for the remainder of the unexpired term. How a Senate vacancy is filled carries greater importance at a time when the Senate is close…

Improved Algebraic Inverter Modelling for Four-Wire Power Flow Optimization
This paper discusses the modeling of inverters used in distributed energy resources in steady state. Modeling the interaction between distribution grids and inverter-based resources is crucial to understand the consequences for the network's operational and planning processes. This work highlights the limitations of existing models and emphasizes the need for better representations of inverters and their control laws in decision-making contexts. Improved steady-state grid-following and grid-for…

Text of the above video:
"Shutdowns are often the result of someone feeling so frustrated that they could melt down, but knowing that to do so would be even worse, but that they can avoid dealing with other people’s reactions to that if they manage to stay in control enough to do nothing but bottle it up.
Whichever way they go, meltdowns and shutdowns take a huge mental and physical toll, and require substantial recovery time. Some autistic people report feeling their after-effects for days afterwards, and in some cases losing abilities they previously had for even longer.
Autistic burnout is something like a long-term counterpart to a shutdown: the cumulative effects of pushing beyond your capacities for too long, usually because you don’t feel like you have much of a choice. Society demands that we carry on, however hard it is – often while insisting that it’s easy, and we’re surely just not really trying. At some point, we just… can’t, any more. We find ourselves perpetually exhausted, our cognitive abilities chronically impaired – often with heightened sensitivities and a reduced a ability to socialise."

Democratic strategists, according to Roll Call, are feeling increasingly optimistic about their chances of flipping the U.S. House of Representatives
— but worried about holding their small U.S. Senate majority.
Democrats know they are likely to lose a Senate seat in West Virginia, where Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin isn't seeking reelection.
And that makes races in Ohio, Montana and other states all the more important.
