It is boring, incredibly so. There's no real creativity involved unless you're trying to stretch the rules capture a transaction in a certain way or make it look like you're doing something you're not really. Its not fun

Not at the same speed as SaaS software. Jira seems to change every five minutes.

Most users and companies I've encountered want to remain on the desktop version. Its faster, gives them more functionality, its under their control and if they want they can pay or not pay maintenance fee. But the software firms are ob

For both nations sakes it's time they put the past behind them. Luckily the younger generations seem to be less inclined towards the old grudges than their predecessors.

No iPhone no success. Cook is a good operations man and he's helped to maintain the success, but he did it by relying totally on China. Not a good long term move at all. He hasn't come up with a revolutionary new product, just imp

Every country in Europe feels the same way. Things are worse and the country is going to the dogs. That's not really the case though. High inflation and the post COVID, Ukraine war situation has caused problems that people haven't

They're not that bad at all. There's a lot of fud. The whole world is struggling at the moment, you won't find a single country that isn't affected by high interest rates or inflation or some other crisis or issue. We&#x

If you only ever use your phone then there's no point in paying for broadband. I think a lot of people have been taking a look at their subscriptions and cancelling things which they seldom use. Do you really need a sub for a 500mbit c

If I were being uncharitable, I'd say she had the kids to try and avoid going to jail. If she were a psychopath it's the sort of thing she might pull. On the other hand it may have been the only opportunity to have kids if she kne

The equity is the part of the capital of the company which is owed to shareholders. It's their money retained by the company to fund it's operations. Its not a metaphor it's actually what it is. It's literally a liabilit

Its still generating tons of free cashflow, so there's still time and resources to pivot to something else, develop new businesses or just to pay it back to shareholders. Its relatively attractive now, especially with TikTok under inte

Yes, you hear that a lot with teenagers in the UK, especially streamers, who dont even live in the US and havent been within a 3000 miles of it. Maybe we just like each others cultures so much?

Best selling car in the UK apparently. So it's quite a decision to make to ditch it. Cars going to be less popular in the UK, Japan, India and Australia, but he probably feels those markets aren't as important at China, the EU and

He's trying to turn it into the Fox News of social media, a hardcore or uses being bombarded with my pillow ads. Seeing how profitable Fox is he seems to want to follow that path.

Banks are a terrible investment. To get above average rate of growth they have to do something risky like lending too much to people they shouldnt be lending to or playing timing games with assets and liabilites. With the bonuses to their

I think a lot of people are ignoring MS. It does seem more like an I'll judged emotional outburst than a reasoned reaction. The competition authority in the UK is well respected so their conclusion is going to be given great weight by
