Every economy has a plateau then a fall, then a pull back up again. I think the aggressive trade stance and hard line politics by China might have played a major role. As it’s frightened both the local businesses and foreign businesses and

Chinese is a great language until you realise without someone constantly telling you what each character is. You’re never going to understand. The tones and characters need to go the way of the dodo before I take more interest.

Wikipedia is a static delivery website. Of course it’s easy if all you’re delivering is static content. Try that with an ecommerce site where dynamic information is sent from sometimes multiple sources. It’s better to load it once and have

They’re Australian but have offices in other countries. I believe they would move for the right reasons. This seems like a pretty big reason, considering they’re targeted at enterprise. But move where? UK will have this next, America does t

If this was to happen to me. I would buy stock in long term, low yield investments. Very long term investments with small payments. Similar to a superannuation program or large industry fund. I would take small amount and take a break, some

Stand up scooters feel so unstable. Why not just add a seat and allow a seated scooter that’s foldable. The problem with last mile transport is that the laws in many countries need electric bikes to have peddles and peddle assistance. Just

Two easy ways to encourage foreign talent. Put huge investments into English training within the country. Or as they could. Put huge investments into a far simpler language such as Esperanto to create an easier to learn (world) language. Se

Apples total lack of PWA support is a real pain. Making a mobile app is 10x the investment of a PWA and most ‘apps’ would be better off as a website. This issue is annoying me more and more lately as Apple simply wants to hold back so many

Without devices to compliment its services. Why would someone use Apple Music over Spotify on android? Or appleflix over disneyflix or Netflix. Services are growing because of an established user base. Take away the hardware and they need t

It was kind of inspiring to see Steve talk about the power PC CPU’s in a technical way. He would say “these things scream” and would compare constantly. He would talk about students and creatives. Professionals and home users in detail. Wat

Been on an Apple binge recently. The prices are out of reach. I’ve watched Steve on stage reducing prices! Whilst increasing speed. Steve talked about speed, ram, students constantly.

The examples the author uses and states that they are “almost real” are in no way almost real. To compare his short film to Disney price and art is a joke. They’re nothing a like. One of Disney’s Moana stills was something like 15GB+. Try d

We can all thank googles incredibly lack of privacy for Apple iOS success. I’m sure most people use an iPhone because it’s simple and because the value on privacy is greater. Other Android vendors should sue google for ruining any chances o

Need a global minimum for all industries indexed similar to Amazon marketplace. Tech 30%. Farming 10-15%. Public service 10%. Etc. Something that can’t be dodged. Even a revenue tax, however that could work. The biggest companies have to mu

Google does not rely on the Chinese market. If anything the Chinese rely on western markets and that includes the startups and factories within China. They’re going to need the western market more than their own in the future. Rich nations
