Comcast and other cable ISPs? They’ve increased their speeds to some but also my price has more than doubled.
In retail, Walmart, Target and most mainstream supermarkets have changed very little.
I think you mean to ask what tech company startup has ever remained relevant for so long without change, maybe?
- jaymzcampbell 9y agoI think I know what you are getting at with supermarkets, but with Walmart in particular, they have been going quite heavy into serious tech, and all in-house lately [1], [2]. Not to disagree with you, was more an interesting thing of note for me. I didn't really picture Walmart doing this sort of stuff outside a huge IBM or Oracle contract. Retailers of that scale have all sorts of potential improvements to make from the growth of technology from online to mobile to IoT (maybe) to big data analytics on purchase/loyalty schemes.

- PhilipA 9y agoIt isn’t relevant to compare a tech company to two retail giants - it is comparing apples and oranges. How much hasn’t the other large tech companies you might compare them to evolved over the last couple of years?
