I wonder at what ratio, it will not make much financial sense to outsource to India. For example, for us, we can get folks in Ireland for less than half than the U.S. Much lower for eastern and central Europe. The time zone difference is more favorable than India. Quality of work is generally better as well.

If you’ve been doing if for many years chances are you are one of those folks who don’t need as much sleep. Apparently there is genetics involved

"Although she had hoped to be allowed to transition on the job, IBM fired Conway in 1968 after she revealed her intention to transition.[20] IBM apologized for this in 2020."

Good grief. Took them long enough.

Wish they provided more details on the reason.

I'm sure most people know this already, but ICQ stood for I Seek You.

2200 ton saved for 12 planes is about 1.5milliom usd

Each 777 can carry about 150 ton of fuel.

So they got about 15 fill ups free

Exactly. At this time, people were either giving or throwing away vintage Apple products because most had very little value in the secondary. I know I did too.

15:10 vs 16:9. I think that's enough difference to notice.

2560 x 1600 resolution is a bit disappointing though.

Too bad 1:1 display isn't common.

In my experience, good ones leave first, followed by those who enjoyed working with them and or ones who are not longer able to get work done.

Resignations lead to more resignations....unless mgmt. can get on top of it and remedy it quickly, which rarely happens. I've seen it happen way too many times working 25 years in tech.

They could say nothing. They could double down and explain. Or they could apologize, cut their losses and move on.

Most company in the same situation would've done the same. Apple didn't have a choice.

One of my all time favorite ads. :)

For me, Google Search is just a way to search Reddit 95% of the time.

Looks like WDC reliability has improved a lot in the past decade.

Seagate continues to trail behind competitors.

I guess they're basically competing on price? Because with data like this, I don't know why anyone running data center would buy Seagate over WD?

I really like MKBHD's videos, but he should've picked a different title for the video.

Frankly, I feel it did way more damage to him than what he did to Aipin or Fisker, which were already universally panned.

Spoiler: The article doesn't say. People suspect Amazon marketplace since it accounted for $140B / year in just fee alone, but the margin is still a mystery yet to be uncovered by DOJ.

This man to me is a modern day Da Vinci of the Web

"Wow, you just freed up 5% of my day."

Got a good chuckle out of that one! You will need that 5% to review the code AI wrote!

I agree. Some folks really want this to succeed because we haven't had a breakthrough product for a while and this is beautifully constructed. However, I'm keep reminded of the trash can Mac Pro; it's a totally wrong form factor.

If they can make it less bulky, less heavy, similar to even Magic Leap 2, it would have a wider appeal.

Short term driven thinking for sure.

I’m sure RTO improves productivity in certain cases.

But for many larger companies that were already practicing distributed model prior to the pandemic, the ship has already sailed.

It no longer knows how to harness RTO effectively. That knowledge was long lost prior to Covid.

The “business customer” is a slight misnomer because Intuits definition of this segment includes “Small Business and Self Employed”. Quickbooks accounts for thr largest share

For consumer segment TurboTax still drives 30% of their entire revenue.

I think most people would be shocked to learn how big intuit is in terms of market cap. Bigger than Verizon wellsfargo ibm nike

He used to have multiple YouTube channels in different languages for the same content.

I agree about the Sundar and Satya comparison, but I also feel Microsoft has always been in more stable position in terms of diversified revenue sources and its stronghold in business / enterprise market that served as platform for growing other lines of their business.

They're not getting rid of the program.

It's just being replaced by another program, but for some reason they are not transferring the points. Very dumb and easily fixable.

I took this writing as a way for him to still reconcile unresolved feelings, seeing how he wants follow up with more writing on cultural shift at Google.

It's a nice chart. Someone really wanted this chart. There isn't enough materials on this page to support the chart unfortunately.

Here's a growing list of approved suppliers for Airbus. https://www.airbus.com/sites/g/files/jlcbta136/files/2023-04...

Their larger planes are assembled in Toulouse, but smaller planes are made globally.

This might be a blessing in disguise. My youtube consumption will go down by 90% with ads.
