Interesting. But I have personally witnessed poverty and people dying of hunger in front of my very eyes. I’d rather help those people than invest in failed moon missions.

Just because it’s easy doesn’t mean users are clamoring for it. I can think of hundreds of things that are easy that apple hasn’t done

All easy software implementations. This is not a hardware story.

Yep it’s just the settings, hardware is basically the same and can achieve the same result. This is a marketing blog post.

As long as you manually control the exposure and exposure time, the same can be achieved with an iPhone camera. This is not specific to Pixel.

We are currently in the AI winter. What we have now is not AI it’s curve fitting. Don’t be fooled, the computer does not “understand” it’s doing blind curve fitting.

Funny thing is I know of of at least two other women that currently call themselves Crypto Queen, or a variation of that, who are doing the TED circuit and similar.

This is not Uber's real problem. The much bigger problem is that Uber's business model by definition cannot be profitable, and here is why: Let's start with the costs of the business model. What are the two costs involved in

Artificial diamonds are more flawless than natural diamonds. And natural diamonds are not rare. And they’re not forever because they burn easily. These are all things you’re not supposed to know.

Slightly up from the open but still down majorly from yesterday. Are you in marketing?

It’s funny how Uber simultaneously says it’s all about supporting drivers and treating them like family, and at the same time they want to fire them all so that robots can do the driving. So which way is it?

Yes it is. If you had invested in the stock market at the height of the “””bubble””” in 2000 you would be off well now. In hindsight it was not a bubble. You may disagree but sadly you probably didn’t have that perspective at the time.

There was no bitcoin bubble. Bitcoin is currently 50% down from the high mark. That is not a bubble. After actual bubbles, the low mark is may be 90% or more below peak.

Now that trades are free everywhere, nothing sets apart Robinhood anymore. Robinhood may yet become the next WeWork.

There's another thing that needs to be said. Uber is receiving a lot of criticism here, but whether they eventually make it as a company or not, Uber is doing one important thing: Showing that a business model and profits matter. This

Apparently the decrease hasn’t been enough to have a positive impact on Uber financials

Once we have robo drivers everyone will have them. If Uber survives until that day, it will have no advantage over a localized competitor like Bobs Taxis with robo drivers.

Those are all great things. And all of them are done by the competitors. In Europe I use MyTaxi, same thing as Uber but much nicer cars
