Fresh off his first song in nine years, the Streets has shared another new track with a title that feels incredibly relevant to the way time no longer seems to function during the COVID-19 crisis, Where the F* & K Did April Go.

The track a boasts funky, upbeat groove of skipping drums, wobbly bass and an agile piano loop, and the Streets goofy but sharp bars seem to capture the doldrums of life in quarantine, along with a general heavier malaise. He rhymes about obnoxious neighbors, dreams about doctors, escaping into video games and even offers up this brilliant philosophical nugget, Philosophy and history/Kant said to be is to do/Nietzsche to do is to be/Frank Sinatra, do-be-do.

Where The F* & K Did April Go follows Call My Phone Thinking Im Doing Nothing Better, which arrived in April and features Tame Impala. The latter track will appear on the Streets upcoming mixtape, None of Us Are Getting Out of This Life Alive, though Where The F* & K Did April Go does not appear on the tracklist.

None of Us Are Getting Out of This Life Alive marks the Streets first project since 2011s Computers and Blues and is set to arrive July 10th via Island Records. The mixtape features contributions from Idles, Jesse James Solomon and more.

The Streets Ponders a Universal Question With New COVID-19 Track - Rolling Stone

The celebrated novelist Michel Houellebecq wrote a short essay about living through pandemic disease and lockdown that was broadcast on French radio Monday. Reporters were quick to crib what they thought were the best bits of Houellebecqs missive. They relished the gloomy artistry of his opening, in which he dismisses the virus as banal and not even sexually transmitted, and they appreciated his closing, in which he testified to his conviction that We will not re-emerge from confinement into a new world: it will be the same, only a little worse.

The translation here is mine, a privilege I am claiming because it was just a little hard to locate the full text of Houellebecqs essay for the France Inter network (analogous to CBC Radio One, more or less). As usual, Houellebecq is playing the role of the outsider, the bad-tempered, mangy stray dog who must never indicate a desire for affection and a place by the fireside. His essay is in the form of agreeable responses to fellow crivains, but he cannot resist nipping at some of them for the country comfort in which they are fighting the isolation battle.

The author tells us that the greatest inconvenience of the harsh French lockdown is not having the freedom to take long walks

He suggests that the coronavirus is hastening all the deplorable trends of depersonalization and atomization that he has documented in his novels. Modern man allegedly does not even have the cultural energy to resent his condition, but anyone who believes Netflix, Amazon and contactless payments are somehow inhuman must crave micro-intimacy awfully deeply: here is someone with a thwarted craving for breathing shared air in a cinema and passing a grimy physical banknote to a hot barista. At one point Houellebecq approvingly quotes a tract against medically assisted reproduction, having to admit he would never have encountered the document if not for that impersonal, sterile internet. I never said it was all bad.

Well, there would be no Houellebecq if he had had an ordinary mother. The author tells us that the greatest inconvenience of the harsh French lockdown is not having the freedom to take long walks. He synthesizes an alleged argument between Flaubert and Nietzsche who knows if anything of the kind really happened; it would be missing the point to check about the role of walking in the life of the writer.

It is not, as Nietzsche suggested, to generate new ideas, but to allow the concepts and feelings which emerge at the desk to float leaflike into a pleasing arrangement. Flaubert, apparently, was a weld the arse to the chair man. Old Fred believed, in Houellebecqs words, tout ce qui nest pas conu dans la marche est nul. Google translates this rather idiosyncratically: everything that is not conceived in walking sucks. If we are becoming less human, at least the machines are developing a sense of humour.

But no one can deny the sensitivity and power of Houellebecqs nose for inhumanity, and, lest it be underestimated, I conclude with a passage which permits no mitigation of its bitterness:

Colby Cosh: Doing 'Houelle' in isolation France's sage transmits to the world - National Post

Does anyone remember Mordechai Vanunu, an Israeli former nuclear technician, who opposed Israels nuclear weapon program, leaked it to the west, hence abducted by Mossad from Italy? The whistleblower, brought back to Israel, tried and sentenced to 18 years imprisonment, most of them in a solitary confinement. Even now, confined to Israel he cannot travel abroad, the Supreme Court hand in glove with the state has declined all his appeals on the pretext of national security. No western country, not even Norway, where his wife is a professor at the school of Theology in Oslo, is willing to grant him a refuge. In cases akin to these, the Orwellian concern of western democracies to the much-hyped slogan of human rights exposes itself vividly.

A few days ago, the Swede police have found a dead body floating in a canal of Uppsala, a university town of Sweden; the man identified as Sajid Hassan was a young refugee who left Baluchistan for a haven but Nietzsches abyss was gazing at him. The magnetic gaze pulled him into its depth and made him free, the freedom that condemns the nonconformists to its cross. When it comes to human liberties, difference between Sweden and Norway shrinks even more.

Julian Assange, another whistleblower implicated in a rape case by the Swedish authorities, the veracity of which is denied by the victims themselves is languishing in a British prison, where allegedly his liquidation is assured making an example of him. It is a grim reminder to the nonconformist to integrate and lose their identities or disintegrate by the state. It is ironic that having the same accusation, Biden is contesting the US presidential elections as a nominee of Democrat Party with no indictment.

State represents the two basic antagonist classes with different and irreconcilable interests. The pretension of maintaining a balance becomes evident when the oppressed demanding their rights are subjected to the brutal might of the state institutions, a situation that exposes the class nature of the state. Man is the being Sartre says to whom no being can be impartial, not even God, same holds true for the state. A state cannot stay neutral; neutrality requires neither the coercive arms such as an army, police and judiciary at ones disposal, nor the monopoly of violence to maintain the hegemony.

The sclerotic western economies are crumbling; the command economy of China and Cuba has opened a new vista of an alternative system to the people

Imperialism has always determined the fate of the nation-states and Rosa knew it. It is not a creation of groups of states, to fulfill certain designs or to punish some countries into submission; these motives cannot be denied though. It is the product of a particular stage of ripeness in the world development of capital, an innately international condition, an indivisibly whole, that is recognised only in all its relations, and from which no nation can hold aloof.

State under neo-liberalism, an imperialist terror has become Nietzsches coldest of all cold enemies, that lies coldly and whatever it has, it has stolen, where the slow suicide of all is called life. The brutal killing of Arif Wazir a political activist, has given further credence to Nietzsche assertions. Is killing someone a remedy, an answer to the imbroglios staring at the state? Is drawing a magic cap on ones eyes and ears can liquidate the specter hunting a society?

No matter how dangerous the political thoughts were maintaining a silence on the death of two activists by the media is intriguing. Either the imbecile tyranny of survival instinct has blinded the media or the repression transcending all limits has reached to a point when even the words have become loaded pistols, not to be spoken publically. Only cadavers do not mourn the death, a gaze on the society narrates the fact that life has already vanished. Only a humanity to whom death has become as indifferent as its members, that has itself died, can inflict it administratively on innumerable people (Adorno).

Long before Covid19, the world was suffering from a more lethal virus of capitalism that colonized the weaker segments of society, accumulated the wealth regardless of means, despoiling, depopulating and devastating the areas left intentionally backward. People adapted to it suffered in disquiet, but one can live with pain but not with disgrace forever. With the death of a rat, plague-of primitive accumulation never dies; it spreads from the underdeveloped areas to the developed ones. It has come to hurt the metropolitan areas, where the weaker stratum of society scorched by a blind sun of injustice is left to fend for itself.

Those who kill the innocents go scot-free; a sick system masquerades its sickness by concealing the evidence. Nearly 40% people are living below or close to the poverty line, while the political class is making bargains with the actual rulers; the military has enhanced its budget to Rs1.1 trillion, a whopping rise of 18 %. Dominant interests have long given up the farce of identifying their interest with that of people.

The debate separating religion from politics, a favorite topic of intellectuals has lost its validity; it never had any since religion is politics. For the western secular states, it is an instrument to divert the class struggle and to promote instrumental reason. The law of blasphemy is a commodity, sold in the market by the capital and used relentlessly against the nonconformists. From the non-Muslims to the rebels, anyone challenging the system finds himself exposed to the threat of the religious guillotine. All totalitarian states, striving to squeeze dissenting space use one or the other similar religious instruments, what else is politics?

The post Corona situation will be agonizing but interesting since it can trigger the locomotive of revolution, the workers in action. With massive economic crunch, even the imperialist state will struggle. The massive unemployment, the morbidity and mortality associated with the virus has already made few things remarkably clear to the workers of the world. Health, education and living wages are far more important than capitalists wars.

The demand for sharing the resources will become a major threat for the ruling class. The global exports have gone down, capitals flow to the underdeveloped world will come with complex strings attached to it, the reduced consumption is bound to hurt, the falling oil prices and restriction of travel have already caused bane for several economies thriving previously. The tribes carrying flags and imperial petrol pumps in Arabian Sheikdoms will not be able to buy the ammunition to oblige the US.

The sclerotic western economies are crumbling; the command economy of China and Cuba has opened a new vista of an alternative system to the people. If Pakistani establishment is eying the Chinese model of one party rule, or a direct coercive army rule with or without a Ceaesar as premier, it will have to alter the economic realities. Can it afford a market economy with socialist structure, perhaps not; it would mean a redistribution of wealth through massive nationalization if not socialization of wealth.

For a state, to act like a guillotine or to appear as a potential assassin will not help. This will only enhance the alienation; the state is not an army but comprises 200 million unarmed, famished civilians. The gods may have many secrets but if human transcends the fear of death, the gods can do nothing against him.

Editors Note: Traditionally, at the end of each volume, the outgoing editor-in-chief of The Commentator writes a retrospective piece, usually titled In Retrospect. Published here, in the final issue of Vol. 85, are two such pieces that analyze the overall role of The Commentator at Yeshiva University and the necessity of a free press.

---

Title: From the Archives (May 20, 1935; Volume 1 Issue 5) Looking Backward

Author: Moses I. Feuerstein and The Commentator Governing Board of 1935

As this issue goes to press, the first term of the life of The Commentator draws to a close. All in all, it has been a short but colorful one as evidenced by the interest and comment that greeted each issue. For in the short period of its existence it has revealed to the student body the possibility of accomplishments which only the most hopeless optimists had dared to seriously consider till now.

The very appearance of The Commentator at the scheduled bi-weekly intervals was already a record breaking phenomenon in the history of the College and student activities. That a tradition so deeply rooted in the atmosphere of Yeshiva could be violated by an immature and struggling young newspaper was merely another omen that even greater surprises were yet in store for the institution. Needless to say, the predictions have long since been realized, as even the most pessimistic will testify.

As the report goes out that this issue will be the last for the semester, the greatest sigh of relief will probably be heaved by the Administration. Theirs has truly been a trying position. To witness after years of rugged individualism in institutional affairs the development in one year of an articulate student body is no very soothing tonic, any college authorities will testify. Especially is this true when a student body has been as meek and complacent for such a period of years as in Yeshiva and Yeshiva College.

The fact that students had many ideas to suggest was always realized by the authorities. But the sudden evolution from rank suggestion to placing the issue in the open where the problem could no longer be evaded, climaxed the fears of the Administration. The old methods of allowing the requests to die from old age or circumlocution suddenly became as out-moded as the horse in the Machine Age. In fact, the solution of the past turned out to be a definite liability in treating with the exigencies of the present, for the more an issue was drowned in verbiage, the more the fundamental points were brought into direct relief.

Calling faculty meetings to cope with this new and insidious force known as The Commentator proved to no avail, for there could be only one solution facing the problem squarely.

If The Commentator has succeeded in initiating this new and only logical method, its mission has been fulfilled not only to the students but to the Administration as well. The cases of delirium tremens that visited the authorities before each issue as rumors of the forthcoming fiery editorials flew thick and fast will not have been in vain.

Title: From the Archives (May 18, 1953; Volume 18 Issue 11) In Retrospect

Author: Irwin Witty

There is an odd sensation that comes with any discovery of change. Many have tried to capture this intangible, almost inarticulate, feeling that overcomes anyone who finds himself jolted from a status quo of any sort. It is an almost lulling effect that the peace and serenity of a position, once secured, brings with it.

The realization that this was to be my last issue as editor of Commie came as something of the same nature. It was a job to which I had come to grow accustomed, and one which, with every passing day, became more a part of me. It was not motivated by sheer altruism, but neither was it motivated by self-grandeur. It was, I fear, more of that serenity that unchallenged position generates.

But the jolt has brought me to reflect. I am faced with the task of passing on the reign. I hope I am not treading upon the maudlin when I say that it is an odd I really want to use the word sad feeling. Granted there is a certain joy to know that now you can take things easy. But before that can be done, there is yet another matter to be taken up. I realize that it is my duty to charge the incoming editor with what has been called Commie tradition. And I must confess it is not an easy task.

The Commentator was founded in the firm belief that freedom of the press is an inalienable right of the student. The People of the Book inspired that freedom, and with it the implicit feeling that everyone has a right to be heard. But, as is so often the case where one interest group can impose its wishes and decisions upon another by dint of uninspired authority or by intimidation and threat, the fear of reprisal throttles us; and the baser inclination of man, to suppress and to cringe in the face of forthrightness, commits us not alone to silence, but to the effacing of our individuality. To subject oneself to authority in the face of rational and level-headed understanding of our actions, is one thing; to cow-tow and assent without reason is blindness, cowardice and an undermining of mans own right to free expression.

In the person of a newspaper, these ideas are embodied. It is my belief that these were the conscious, if unexpressed, motivations of the framers of the axiom of a free and independent press. It is my belief, as well, that these ideas motivated those students who first labored over the early pages of Commie.

The past year has had its times when these axioms were challenged by the agnostics of freedom. I fear that their campaign may have succeeded long before I could take up my blue pencil. But when the situation arose where we could clearly stand up to reiterate these truths, we were ready and dedicated in fulfilling our task.

I leave to Sheldon Rudoff and his staff a Commentator entering upon its nineteenth year of publication and simultaneously its third year under an advisorship. The step from Alumni Advisor, to faculty supervision and eventually administration censorship can be spanned in time. We must forever remain vigilant that advice be confined to counsel.

Shelley, it is to the continuation of this principle that I ask you to remain dedicated.

Our content consumption has increased multifold and is greater than ever right now.By Amit Dhawan

My conversations these days with almost every brand that Im consulting or every person that Im teaching at the Academy are about this one thing - Our operations are in a hit, should we still be spending on marketing or creating content? And if yes, then what should we communicate or talk about as we cant sell at the moment?

Pretty relatable, isnt it? I did a webinar on digital marketing a couple of days back with about 500 attendees who had tons of questions. Almost 80% of the questions revolved around this same topic.

The answer here is very simple and Ill come to it, but before that, let us quickly do a retrospective and analyze how our day looks like in the current lockdown situation. Now while each one of us might have a different kind of day basis our jobs and responsibility division at home, but 2 things are common with all of us: The tremendous amount of digital media were consuming, and.. the dishes were washing. (You cant disagree with either of these, can you?)

Now this is just one aspect. Here is another - because of the crisis, most industries and brands have greatly reduced or completely stopped spending money on advertising. This means, because of low competition, bid costs have gone extremely low on all digital platforms like Facebook and Google, which means, there is a much higher ROI compared to the pre-pandemic times. The cost of advertising has gone down, a lot.

Looking at the two points above, it is obvious that you should be creating content. But, let me tell why you must be creating content, and that too more than ever.

It is a fact that our attention spans while consuming content are extremely short. We do not spend too much time on a piece of content while browsing through social media and it hardly registers in our mind, let alone the brand name. Now with growing demand in content and increasing production by content creators, the fight for attention is even tougher to hit the recall with the audience you care about. If youre not showing up consistently, you will be forgotten very easily and very soon.

Persistent efforts, consistent communication, and frequent reminders - are some rules of the game we all have to stick to in order to just be eligible for the play.

Now lets look at what to communicate or post during the lockdown period and how to push out so much content.

Inspired by our very own Modi ji and his CO.RO.NA. abbreviation (which in our case, can very well translate to COntent ROko NAhi ) if you remember in one of his recent public addresses, what Ive created is called the COVID-19 Strategy.

Heres how it goes:

C - Converse The first step is to listen to and converse with your target audience. Thats the best form of content anyone can create. Talk to your audience if they are reaching out to you or even if they are not. Conversational content works the best on Social Media. Remember, conversation is a 2-way thing. 🙂

O - Organize This is my favorite hack to content creation, as well as a massive recall-booster. With everyone having some spare time at hand, it is a good idea to organize online events like a LIVE or a Webinar where you can exchange informative or entertaining content with your viewers. This is THE easiest way to generate content that would actually engage your audience.

V - Vocalize Considering the current scenario, a lot is happening in the world. Brand or you as a personal brand, MUST voice out your opinion and stand for something you truly believe in. That will help you in one, creating content of course, but also in pulling people together who believe in what you believe.

I - Innovate With so much happening around, being in the moment and also innovative at the same time is the need of the hour. Dont fear experimenting with new things while creating a topical piece of content and it shall fly!

D - Document Documenting is a great way to substitute the efforts in creating fresh pieces of content from scratch. You can document the activities that the brand is doing to support the government in fighting the pandemic, or behind the scenes of operational hassles and how the brand or you are creatively tackling everyday stuff in a fun way...

19 - 19 pieces of content, every single day! This is the most important piece of the puzzle. Now I dont mean that you literally need to make 19 pieces of content, that is just a number. But produce as much as you can. From 5 to 50 posts a day as well if you are able to, which Im sure you very easily can if the above steps are followed. I am doing it, for myself, as well as for our brands. So, can you. The content can be in the form of image-based creatives, stories, videos, platform specific adapts, articles, and so on. There is no limit here.

It is not only recommended to create content (a lot of it), but it is a MUST DO in all possible ways. If youre not doing that, youll be out of the game pretty soon because what is happening right now is a massive change of audience behavior which is here to stay.

The only way to slay, is to up your creative play.

CLIFFORD GOLDSTEIN

For decades I have been reading popularized books on quantum physics, relativity (special and general), and cosmology by young men brilliant enough to get doctoral degrees in mathematical physics or theoretical physics or theoretical mathematical physics or whatever, and also to write accessible books that sell in numbers I drool over.

However, as the years roll by (or whatever their physics teaches that time does), its finally dawning on these wunderkinds what the philosophical premises of their science mean for them, their families, their lifes work. After all, according to these premises, the universe that they have so deeply studied is (depending on the math in their equations) either going to tear apart, collapse in on itself, or just flat out burn out.

Enough to make even these demigods wonder, Whats it all about? Or if its about anything at all? Or is it all just as meaningless as their premises imply?

Take, for example, Brian Greene, a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University and renowned for groundbreaking discoveries in string theory. Greene has also authored such bestsellers as The Elegant Universe (1999) The Fabric of the Cosmos (2004), The Hidden Reality (2011), and his latest, Until the End of Time: Mind, Matter, and our Search for Meaning in an Evolving Universe (2020).

A plug for Until the End of Time says that through a series of nested stories that explain distinct but interwoven layers of realityfrom quantum mechanics to consciousness to black holesGreene provides us with a clearer sense of how we came to be, a finer picture of where we are now, and a firmer understanding of where we are headed.

Really?

Sure, Brian Greene has his conjectures, his speculations, some no doubt greatly influenced by his unchallenged expertise in mathematical physics. But thats all that they are, speculations and conjectures, which are also (Im afraid) exceedingly limited by his unproven philosophical claim that without intent or design, without forethought or judgment, without planning or deliberation, the cosmos yields meticulously ordered configurations of particles from atoms to stars to life.

How this happened, of course, is the big question; what it all means, the bigger one. Nevertheless, he claims that entropy and gravity together are at the heart of how a universe heading toward ever-greater disorder can nevertheless yield and support ordered structures like stars, planets, and people. He writes that by the grace of random chance, funneled through natures laws, that is, through gravity and entropythe universe, life, human consciousness all came into existence. (Gracethats the word he used!)

Everyones familiar with gravity, and with entropy, too, though it needs a bit of explaining. Entropy is a statistical principle that describes why cars rust, why our bodies fall apart, and why all things, if left alone, move toward disorder. (Dont put thought or energy into keeping up your abode, and see what happens to it.) Entropy (also known as the Second Law of Thermodynamics) is the measure of that disorder: low entropy, order; high entropy, disorder, and our universe is moving, inexorably, toward higher entropy, higher disorder.

To use an image that Greene uses, imagine 100 pennies all heads up on a table. By comparison he writes, if we consider even a slightly different outcome, say in which we have a single tail (and the other 99 pennies are still all heads), there are a hundred different ways this can happen: the lone tail could be the first coin, or it could be the second coin, or the third, and so on up to the hundredth coin. Getting 99 heads is thus a hundred times easiera hundred times more likelythan getting all heads.

If you keep going, the ways of getting more tails amid heads keep rising. There are 4,950 ways to get two tails; 161,700 ways to three tails; 4,000,004 ways for four tails, and so forth until the numbers peak at 50 heads and 50 tails. Green writes that at this point, there are about a hundred billion billion billion possible combinations (well, 100, 891, 344, 545, 564, 193, 334, 812, 497, 256 combinations).

Now, lets move from coins to atoms, the stuff of existence (at least as stuff appears to us when we look at it). A bunch of random atoms are much more likely to remain a bunch of random atoms than to form, say, a cat or a copy of The Iliad, just as 100 random coins on a table are more likely to be in disarray than to be all heads (or tails) up, or even to get real close to either configuration. Things go from order to disorder simply because there are a whole lot more ways to be disordered than ordered.

Fine, but how does this law-like tendency for all things toward disorder, toward higher entropy, lead to all the ordered and organized structures that exist, everything from stars to human consciousness? Greene answers: its gravity. When theres enough gravityenough sufficiently concentrated stuffordered structures can form, he claims, then he spends a hunk of his book explaining how it happened.

How successfully Greene make his case, readers of Until the End of Time can decide for themselves. I want, instead, to look at something he wrote about entropy that, I humbly suggest, presents a major flaw in his thinking. Its whats known as The Past Hypothesis.

Lets go back to the 100 coins on the table, but now in a high entropy state, a state of high disorder. Suppose, as you were studying why the coins were like that, you developed a theory which required that at first these coins were in a low entropy state, all heads up, say. Fine. But this leaves open the simple question: How did they get that way? The answers obvious: some intelligence deliberately arranged the coins into that low-entropy state. How else?

But suppose that an unproven philosophical premise behind the science investigating the coins is that their existence, however it began, did so without intent or design, without forethought or judgment, without planning or deliberation. You, therefore, would need another explanation for this hypothetical low-entropy, highly ordered state of 100 heads up coins as an initial condition. (In fact, you probably would have never theorized an intelligence behind it because your philosophical presupposition, from the start, forbade it.)

Lets again move from coins to atoms, the atoms in our universe, which are in a high entropy state, and getting higher. The problem comes from The Past Hypothesis, which teaches that the universe started out in a state of low entropy.

A hundred pennies with all heads, writes Greene, has low entropy and yet admits an immediate explanationinstead of dumping the coins on the table, someone carefully arranged them. But what or who arranged the special low-entropy configuration of the early universe? Without a complete theory of cosmic origins, science cant provide an answer.

Who (perhaps a Freudian slip of the computer keys?) or what arranged the special low-entropy configuration of the universe? If 100 coins heads up, a fairly simple configuration no matter how unlikely, needed someone to arrange them, then what about the early conditions of our universe, which must have been much more complex than a mere 100 heads up coins? To paraphrase Greene, Who or what arranged it that way?

In a line from his book (the line that prompted this column), Greene just shrugged his shoulders at this question and said: For now, we will simply assume that one way or another, the early universe transitioned into this low-entropy, highly ordered configuration, sparking the bang and allowing us to declare that the rest is history.

One way or another the early universe just happened to be highly ordered? If, in seeking to understand the origins and nature of the 100 coins on the table, you just shrugged off their low-entropy beginnings with, Well, lets just assume that, somehow, the 100 coins all got heads up, youd be sneered at. Yet Greene does that with something astronomically more complicated than 100 heads up coins, the low-entropy state of the early universe.

Too bad Greene, echoing Galileo, Copernicus, Kepler, and Newton, cant say something like: Look, I am a scientist. I study only natural phenomena, which means that even though, obviously, some intelligence must have created the low-entropy state of the early universe, I dont deal with that but only with what comes after, or the like. Of course, even if inclined to say that, he would be derided, ridiculed, and tarred-and-feathered as the intellectual equivalent of a flat-earther or Holocaust-denier.

Theres a tragic irony, however, in not acknowledging the obvious. Until the End of Time reflects Greenes attempt to come to terms with the fact that, according to his science, every memory of him and of everything that he accomplished, along with the memory of everyone else and of everything that they accomplished, are all going to vanish into eternal oblivion as if never existing or happening to begin with. Yet he wrote about how, in a Starbucks, it hit him that when you realize the universe will be bereft of stars and planets and things that think, your regard for our era can appreciate toward reverence.

It can? For most people, every conscious moment in our era is overshadowed by the certainty thatbecause they unfold in a universe that one day will be bereft of stars and planets and things that thinkthese moments ultimately mean nothing. So how much reverence does nothing deserve? The Hebrew Scripture says that God has put olam (eternity) in our hearts (Eccl. 3:11), and as long as we can envision an olam that steamrolls every memory of us into the dirt as it moves on without us, we are left to flail about in a search for meaning amid a universe that, according to Greenes unproven presuppositions, offers none.

Its painful, because the low entropy state of the early cosmos points to the only logical past hypothesisa Creator. This Creator and His gracenot the grace of random chance, funneled through natures laws, which, after supposedly creating us, destroy us (some grace)His grace promises, for those who accept it, eternal life (John 17:3) in the same olam that the Creator has, yes, put in our hearts.

Cliff's Edge -- The Past Hypothesis - Adventist Review

In the early days of Android, smartphone wars amongst OEMs were solely about the spec sheet. Big numbers, fast numbers, many numbers it was all a race to the top. The idea of a flagship was to throw as many things as you could together and present it to the consumer at a price that gave you a decent margin to operate. An attempt was made to undercut the next competitor, but not necessarily always, as flagships were not supposed to be price-conscious. These were the finest and the most important smartphones amongst the whole lineup, and OEMs were mighty proud of them.

Some of this pride was attacked in 2014 when OnePlus announced the OnePlus One. For just $299 / 21,999 for the base 16GB model, the OnePlus One offered a lot of the big numbers that competing flagships like the Samsung Galaxy S5, costing $599 / 51,500 off-contract, provided. There were a few compromises along the way, notably in the build, the camera and the display, but performance on this $299 phone was considered to be even better than that of the $599 phone. Thus was born the Flagship Killer, a term the community gave to the OnePlus One, for it was a phone that took away the shine from competing flagships. You no longer needed to pay top dollar just to get the best in terms of performance. Facilitated by the top of the line SoC and complementing RAM and storage technologies, the OnePlus One was a runaway success.

OnePlus came out with several phones after the OnePlus One, but there was a general price creep over the generations. This gradual bumping up of the price tag faded the allure off the Flagship Killer title, and somewhere along the way, OnePlus smartphones could no longer do complete justice to the Flagship Killer legacy of the OnePlus One.

A spiritual successor to the title came to us from a different OEM in 2018. POCO, a Xiaomi sub-brand back then, entered the Indian market with the POCO F1. The POCO F1 built upon the same principles that the OnePlus One had adopted fast performance, but a mediocre display, a mediocre camera (but maybe not so mediocre after all), and a less-appealing build. The company and the audience embraced these compromises in lieu of getting flagship performance at a fraction of the flagship price. The POCO F1 started off at a price tag of 20,999 in India (~$380 equivalent in Europe), which was a fraction of the OnePlus 6s 34,999 / $529 launch price tag, and less than half of the Samsung Galaxy S9s 57,900 / $720 launch price tag.

Whether it be the OnePlus One or the POCO F1, the idea behind the Flagship Killer remained the same provide the best, top-of-the-line SoC (usually from Qualcomm), complement it with other key advancements in RAM and storage technology, sprinkle it with a few other niceties as far as the budget allows, and deliver it at an affordable price tag of $300-$400 that is a fraction of the price of other conventional and premium flagships. Flagship killers thus democratized flagship performance, a feature that used to remain exclusive to premium flagships, as they lowered the bar of affordability. For users that preferred function over form, flagship killers provided the best bang for their buck.

Make no mistakes flagship killers were not perfect and they had their own compromises but the judgment on these compromises was not as harsh, as their affordable price tag shielded them from direct harsh criticism when compared against premium flagships. In the price bracket of $300-$400, you really couldnt complain a lot if you still got the best Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC onboard.

While the definition of a flagship has remained somewhat constant over the years, the price envelope has continued to expand. $600 used to be enough for a flagship once upon a time, but constant tech innovation and increased consumer expectations have led us to this point where premium flagships cost as much as $1,400. Much of this price increase is because of more expensive build materials, much better displays, much better and even more cameras, and an increased focus on the cohesive smartphone ecosystem experience. But, in 2020, there is one particular component that has introduced a larger than usual bump in pricing YoY, and which might just be the reason why the Flagship Killer concept dies this year.

Its the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 is the current flagship SoC from Qualcomm, incorporating all the latest and greatest in mobile chip technologies. Over the Snapdragon 855, the Snapdragon 865 boasts of 25% faster raw CPU performance, 20% faster graphics rendering, better sustained performance, 2x increase in AI performance, support for LPDDR5 memory, support for display with QHD+ resolution at 144Hz refresh rate, support for 8K @ 30fps videos, 4K HDR videos, support for processing images up to 200MP in size, and processing 64MP images with Zero Shutter Lag, and support for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1. Thats a long list of new features, but it isnt uncommon to see such additions on a YoY basis. This is a flagship SoC after all, and it needs to stay a step ahead of the flagships themselves.

What is uncommon, however, is the jump up to 5G network technology as a mandatory upgrade, and we see it in the form of the Snapdragon X55 modem support. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 does not include any modem, not even one for LTE, which breaks away from the convention of recent years from Qualcomm.

As a result, as ArsTechnica points out, every phone company that intends to build a flagship with the Snapdragon 865 also absolutely needs to purchase the 5G-enabled Snapdragon X55 modem as well, as there is no integrated 4G modem to fall back on to keep things cheap. But just including the X55 modem does not guarantee full spectrum 5G access either. The Snapdragon X55 5G Modem-RF system includes compatible hardware modules for sub-6GHz 5G. For mmWave, you also need to purchase Qualcomms QTM525 or QTM527 antennae, likely in the multiples to keep things running seamlessly across phone orientations. The result is that phone OEMs have to purchase several new and expensive components to purposefully deliver on the new marketing buzzword of 5G.

As ArsTechnica also noted in their article, 5G will raise prices of the phones by approximately $200-$300. This price increase was mentioned in the context of Snapdragon 855-based 5G phones from OnePlus (the OnePlus 7T Pro 5G, as it would turn out). But with mandatory 5G in 2020, the same situation is seen across the entire current generation of Snapdragon 865 5G flagships.

As we have already witnessed, premium flagships in 2020 are much more expensive. Devices like the Samsung Galaxy S20 start at $999 and go all the way up to $1,399 for the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra; the OnePlus 8 series starts at $699, and goes all the way up to $999. The same trend continues across the board Motorola Edge+ costs $999, Mi 10 Pro costs999, OPPO Find X2 and Find X2 Pro cost 999 and 1199, LG V60 costs $800, and so on. Even the cheaper crop of flagships arent exactly cheap the Realme X50 Pro costs 37,999 / 599, making it Realmes most expensive smartphone yet.

There are multiple examples at this point, and the general trend has been the same the Snapdragon 865 with 5G is expensive, and phones will get unusually more expensive compared to their predecessors.

The outlier here is the iQOO 3, but it is an exception because of two reasons: one, it is the cheapest Snapdragon 865 device in the market right, and two, it is the only one that comes in a 4G-only variant as well. The iQOO 3 5G costs 44,990 (~$589) [launch price: 46,990 (~$615)], while the base 4G variant costs 34,990 (~$459) [launch price: 38,990 (~$512)]. The iQOO 3 managed to undercut the Realme X50 Pro in India at launch, but it could only do so by decoupling 5G away from the flagship experience. We arent sure how iQOO managed to pull off a further price cut it goes against all the indicators in the Indian market, as we all were bracing for more expensive smartphones because of GST changes, but iQOO went the other way somehow. And we arent sure how iQOO managed to decouple 5G away from the Snapdragon 865 either the iQOO 3 4G could possibly have 5G bands software-disabled using tools provided by Qualcomm but we could not locate any concrete information to explain the phone and its 5G-less variant.

From a 5G plus Snapdragon 865 perspective, the argument continues to stand: Qualcomms latest SoC and the accompanying 5G hardware makes flagships more expensive than ever before, with a steep price jump. The blame also rests on the Snapdragon 865 by itself, as Qualcomm is selling this SoC to OEMs at a much higher price than its previous flagship chips. As POCOs GM Mr. C. Manmohan mentioned in an interview with Android Authority:

Chipsets right now, all 800-series chipsets, are extremely expensive. And [the Snapdragon 865], being the first 5G generation, is just a lot more expensive.The 855 was launched with a higher price point and we expected that also to undergo some depreciation. But 865 has launched extremely high and now the transition from 4G to 5G is happening across the board. So the depreciation the 855 should have seen did not happen.

The same report cites various sources and gives us a rough estimate of the price per chip. The Snapdragon 845 reportedly cost manufacturers around $45 plus an additional licensing fee per chip. The Snapdragon 855 and Snapdragon 855+ cost $53 plus an additional licensing fee per chip. This price increase not only affected the price of the flagships released in 2019, but it also continues to affect the viability of flagship killers into 2020 as the chip has not depreciated as much as previous trends. Xiaomis CEO Mr. Lei Jun had commented that the Snapdragon 865 cost them about $70 on the Mi 10 making it one of the biggest jumps in cost in recent times and one that directly contributes to a steep rise in flagship pricing. A teardown analysis of the Mi 10 from TechInsights pitches the SoC to be $81, while the modem costs another $26.50, and the RF component costs $33.50, equalling a cool $141. While this is an estimate from a teardown and can miss out on the benefits derived from factors-of-scale, it does make one point clear the Snapdragon 865 is expensive, with a price increase greater than previous flagship SoCs.

Not only is the Snapdragon 865 more expensive, but it also requires other components and other changes that further drive up the cost. The discrete 5G modem and the additional multiple antennae require more space inside the phone. As a result, the phone body gets larger, the display gets larger, the battery gets larger, and OEMs have been throwing in larger and more camera sensors into the mix too, to make the most out of the situation. All of these cost money, and the consumer has to pay for it.

Snapdragon 865 and Qualcomms monopoly in the upper end of the SoC market has forced premium flagships to evolve into ultra-premium flagships. OEMs are also incorporating more advancements in the display and camera segments, which exerts further pressure on this forced evolution. A price increase in this luxury segment is easier to digest keeping in mind that the target audience for these ultra-premium phones has a higher propensity to spend.

What isnt easy to digest is the doom that the Snapdragon 865 spells out for Flagship Killers, as it hungrily devours the ~$400 budget as espoused in the community definition. There is just not enough budget left over for other components even if an OEM were to stick to a middling-quality level.

What makes matters even worse is the fact that 5G comes with its own limitations. The technology still has a long way to go before it matures and sees widespread adoption, and this is in the context of developed markets that have already jumped onto the train.

There are still others that have not even taken the first steps to 5G yet. Case in point India, one of the biggest smartphone markets in the world, but one that has yet to even begin spectrum auctions for 5G, leave alone rolling out consumer infrastructure, and making 5G economically available to a population that loves its cheap and abundant 4G. Spectrum auctions were expected to be conducted in April 2020, but the poor health of the countrys telecom industry and the COVID-19 pandemic has put this on the back burner for the foreseeable future.

For India, mandatory 5G with the Snapdragon 865 was expected to make smartphones prohibitively expensive. But to bring some solace, the current releases are just mildly expensive and not prohibitively so. The OnePlus 8 series, with 5G support, launched in India lower than it did in the rest of the world. A similar story exists with the Realme X50 Pro 5G and the iQOO 3 5G.

The lower cost of these phones could be for the fact that they are missing out on incorporating support for all 5G bands and restricting themselves to just a handful of probable ones, and thus, saving themselves on certification costs for the market. But we believe there is a catch here that OEMs have not entirely been transparent about. While these phones support 5G, they may not really support 5G in India. As the spectrum has not yet been auctioned in the country yet, certifying authorities should not have the mandate available to them to certify phones for usage in these scenarios, logically speaking. Certificates are issued after testing the equipment for safety by authorities such as Telecommunication Engineering Centre, and one can only wonder how phones already released would have been tested for safety on a spectrum that is not yet available for use in the country. So while you may have a 5G-ready phone that is being marketed as being future proof, its acceptance on the 5G network is very likely subject to subsequent regulatory approval when the network finally becomes available. Our knowledge on this particular context is admittedly limited, so we have reached out to a few stakeholders to learn more about this issue well amend the article when/if we get more clarity on this point.

Even if you presume that all is rosy on the certification end, consumers in India can realistically see 5G on their smartphone not earlier than 2022. Such an estimate is also an optimistic one, one that presumes that all the expensively-priced spectrum is scooped up in the first auction (and does not necessitate multiple auction rounds as companies decide to stay away due to high prices), with other presumptions such as minimal economic fallout to the telecom sector despite the COVID-19 pandemic, and a swift end and recovery from the pandemic induced lockdown measures. By 2022, the Snapdragon 865 would be 2 years old, and the shiny smartphone in your hands will not be as shiny anymore. If you could afford an expensive smartphone with the foresight to use expensive 5G on it two years later, you may be in a good position to buy a more rounded and polished product for 5G use in 2022, too. Do you really need to buy a 5G-(probably)-ready flagship right now in 2020 though?

The overall industry-wide push for 5G also needs a mention over here as a factor that is driving up costs prematurely. Carriers in 5G-markets have begun aggressively marketing 5G, which makes consumers want 5G on their phones. This then stimulates OEMs to incorporate 5G on their phones and market 5G further, even in markets where the infrastructure is not in place. Having a 5G-enabled phone will then increase the priority of having a 5G infrastructure in that market, and so goes the cycle. Qualcomm is a piece in this bigger puzzle and the push is indeed industry-wide.

For now, no-5G in India will add to the frustration of losing out on a Flagship Killer. Developing markets are the prime targets for this product category, as users over here often prioritize the deal which gets them the most bang for their buck. Adding unusable and not-future-friendly 5G on a Flagship Killer burdens it with dead weight, one that pushes it outside of its budget for no apparent benefit in the present or the future. To this, remember that the Snapdragon 865 was already pretty expensive, so there was not enough headroom to play with, either.

Adding unusable and not-future-friendly 5G on a Flagship Killer burdens it with dead weight, one that pushes it outside of its budget for no apparent benefit in the present or the future.

The Snapdragon 865 with its mandatory 5G requirement, is thus, the end of the $400 Flagship Killer, for better or for worse. What makes a flagship is what kills the flagship killer, this year.

While we were discussing this opinion piece, an interesting counter-opinion came to light. As Pranob brought up in our discussion, the flagship killer may not necessarily be dead yet. The primary definition of the flagship killer is to offer flagship performance at a fraction of the flagship price. But since the very price definition of a flagship has expanded with the introduction of ultra-premium flagships, it is only fair that the price definition of a flagship killer is also expanded.

Consequently, since what was once sold for $700 is now being sold for $1400, one can no longer expect that what once cost $400 remains at that price point while still offering some of the best features present in the industry. It is only natural that flagship killers also seek a price hike not necessarily out of a desire to expand their profit margins, but out of a need to maintain it. Flagship killers, aka the phones with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC but with other compromises, should now be expected around the $800 price ballpark and we do have a few examples of the same currently existing in the industry.

The arguments of future-proofing also come back into play here with the inclusion of mandatory 5G. People who buy a Flagship Killer are unlikely to have a high budget to purchase a new phone every year, or even every two or three years. These value chasers are much more likely to use their phone for a longer time duration as long as it happily functions and serves their need. There is a lower likelihood of them splurging money on a new phone, just because a shiny new phone exists. For these individuals, having a phone with 5G (mandatory or otherwise) gives their phone enough of a future-proofing coat to be on top of their needs for a longer time duration. Such an argument may not necessarily apply to regions where 5G does not exist, like India, but it does extend to other regions where 5G is seeing a gradual rollout.

There is also a point to be made about flagship killers being dead only temporarily. 2020 can be considered as the first year where 5G truly goes mainstream on smartphones, so there is bound to be a larger capital overhead to bear per smartphone. We can expect the costs to go down with the next generation, as there is a valid possibility that the next Qualcomm flagship could integrate the next Qualcomm 5G modem and lower down the costs from current levels. There is no guarantee that the benefits will be passed onto the consumers they could be absorbed to cover the advancements in other pieces of technology in the phone, such as further display enhancements, better build materials, and so on.

Another argument comes up in that the entire price increase on flagships cannot simply be attributed to the Snapdragon 865, or to 5G for that matter. Smartphones this year have made great strides in terms of display and camera technology. We are getting features such as 10-bit 120Hz color-accurate displays with headlining technologies such as MEMC and dedicated display processors. For cameras, we are seeing quad and even penta camera setups, with bigger sensors all through and even further additions in the form of a periscope zoom lens. All of these features require a tremendous amount of R&D to be made possible, and this is recouped through added costs on the smartphone. Since these have become the norm on flagships, what we expect out of a flagship killer also rises up by a bit a 60Hz FHD+ display and dual-camera setup may no longer cut it for a phone to be called a flagship killer. This change in consumer expectation is not triggering a corresponding change in price expectation, and that is its own problem.

Even after such a long-winded essay, I have remained undecided either way. Mandatory 5G through the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 does hurt the wallet, a lot, especially in the times of COVID-19 and the economic uncertainties a pandemic brings along. The traditional price envelope of a flagship killer is no longer viable without downgrading (used very loosely here) to an inferior SoC like the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765 or the Snapdragon 730. This means we may no longer see a repeat of the insane value proposition of the OnePlus One and the POCO F1. And thats something that I will sorely miss.

On the other hand, innovations in technology need capital investments to move forward. If the very price definition of a flagship changes, there will invariably be an increase in what half of a flagship price would be. Price creep and consumer expectation force flagship killers to become the very thing they sought out to kill a flagship.

You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain
