What exactly did Google do to Apple in Mobile ? You mean marketshare ? I believe Apple is fine with that, they still make the majority of profits in the mobile business.

From 2011 to 2014 they did more than 10Bn in profit each year [1] on revenues of about 150-200Bn [2] so in most normal years it looks more like 5-10%. [1] https://www.statista.com/statistics/272053/operating-profit

This is also what comes to mind when comparing the giant touchscreen in a Tesla Model S to the haptic buttons and knobs in most other premium brands. Especially when driving, touchscreens just seem an inferior way to interact with the syste

i tried the same with portuguese comments/text where i always felt Facebooks translation was pretty bad and in google translate it is a lot better, to the point you hardly notice it's translated by an algorithm at all.

Do you also feel sad for the millions of animals that live in miserable conditions for months/years just to be eaten by us afterwards? This is arguably less of a torture to a much smaller number of animals, yet it is heavily regulated

Maybe its the same reason as Sam Altman has for owning a remote patch of land so that in case of things going really bad, he can fly there because he has all the important stuff (water, food, antibiotics, gold etc) stored there.

Tesla needs to push for EV only, they need to disrupt, otherwise nobody would even take notice. Keep in mind that they still have to prove real profitability. Meanwhile the german built very economic high tech cars, ever sat in a new Audi w

He is listing the size of the new MBP vs the 13" Macbook Air as a pro, but in fact even the previous MBP had a slightly smaller footprint than the 13" Air, this is even smaller though. The Air is in fact a pretty large 13" la

SSD and GPU are quite a bit faster, the CPU isn't, but it got more power efficient and is more of an Intel problem at the moment as they are focusing on that.

What ? Even in Germany with it's high fuel prices i will get 800km with 50-70 EUR of fuel. Charging that 60kWh battery would be around 16 EUR worth of electricity here but only results in half the range. So still cheaper, but nowhere n

Why would that be better ? Deprecation of new cars in the first 3 years is crazy high, they loose 50% value in that time. Buying a new car every 3 years is one of the worst thing s you can do financially.
