No they didn't. What are you talking about?! DJI has zero to do with anything amazon. Da-Jiang Innovations started with mainland students at HKUST almost twenty years ago and then moved to Shenzhen. No amazon whatever marketplace back

Ah yes. Another Google product copying iPhone and others. I can't even remember when I last saw creativity come out of that place.

Also an EV charging station only needs regular maintenance when things (sadly inevitably) break. Whereas a fuel station needs not just maintenance but also constant refueling, so trucks need to come out, which can be a looooong drive depend

We also got airplanes that are way cheaper to run, are more reliable, use less Kerosine and there's a lot more to be bought than back in the day. It's REALLY hard to compare anything 1973 vs 2023 as there are way more factors in p

None of that is true. They'd love to "digitise" but their problem is that there is ZERO Software culture in Germany. Likely they'd have some shitty accounting or consulting firm with their 24 yr old associate who can do

Awfully run bank. As a 20+ years customer in many countries around the world I am in the process of moving all my accounts to HSBC before Citibank closes their last country. https://www.forbes.com/sites/palashghosh&#x2F

I've been unemployed for a whole year now. And am not a CEO. So I guess I win this one.

It can have USB0 speeds and it would make no difference. Since iCloud and Airdrop over a decade ago, I haven't synched a photo or file from or to my iPhone since. But many people care more about spec comparisons than real life impact.

I have not connected a cable to my iPhone in years (since Magsafe launched in 2020). I haven't transferred data from/to my iPhone via cable in a decade (since Airdrop launched in 2012). So having USB-C instead of Lightning is nice

Did you just make that up or...? Where do you 'slow charge' your car when you're the average German renter (i.e. more than half the population). But irrespective of that, what does that have to do with charging times at fuel

A fuel pump can fill up 6-7, maybe more cars in the time it takes to partially (say to 80% or so) fill up one electric car. So how is that infrastructure going to work? Edit: funny how few people are trying to comment on the '80% of ga

Maybe a way to bring the beloved 12" Macbook back, but this time with an M3 instead of underpowered intel M series chip

I can make anything fast if I don't care about up-to-date prices. Sorry but meta search is slow for a reason. It takes a while to go from reservation systems to OTA inventory to meta results. And there's a cost involved to it too.

Let's not forget the reinstalls to have the system perform properly again. I must have installed Win94 dozens of times over the years. I've never fresh-installed OS X once. I frankly don't even know how to do that with the cu

Depending on where said fancy private uni that doesn't pay well is located might be an issue. Yes perks are good. But mediocre pay only goes so far if you're living in a high tax, high rent state.

Same here. It has nothing to do with the CV. 20 years of experience as a Product Management leader. Google, Booking Group, Trip Group, SEA, my own startup, Stanford MBA, Berkeley, bla bla. Everyone keeps telling me I'd have something i

Notifications can very easily be turned off. Not sure how that would be a reason to forgo apps in general.

They don't. They're famous for wanting Product people with engineering backgrounds, which is silly. That's not Product, that's just engineering/project management then. Product is way more all-encompassing and focus

So you're basically eliminating a bunch of jobs and are now starting a pity party on here that YOU are burned out? As someone unemployed for a year, I feel so sorry for you. I hope you accept my tears for your burnout.

It's all about PR to keep stock prices up. Which employer would ever say: "ah man it's all fucked up. Our productivity is completely gone. We're not getting anything done" Imagine what that would do the stock prices

Good. I have no problem with said filter. I'd much rather focus on the business not on bureaucracy that is working against me.

If one could as easily locate to the US as to many European or Asian countries, then I don't think people would have an issue with it. The reality of US immigration being such a f up means most founders (especially us older ones) just

I've seen it regress a lot in the last two years. I have a Google Spreadsheet that I used to track investments I have in various markets. Three months ago Google stopped showing any stock quotes for ETFs in Europe. No explanation, just
