I wonder if the newspaper website has a switch for people to choose between "Basic maths" vs "weird analogies".

You don't borrow but plenty of other people are mortgaged.

In your country it might be different but here in the UK when there were serious market crashes, some people were contacted by their mortgage provider demanding a top up of guarantee.

  Ie: if your loan is against a property evaluated at 300k and right now it's worth 270k, the bank can demand you do something about it.

So odd that the product page on the Apple website doesn't say whether it runs OS X or IOS.
If people don't care, they might as well try shipping it running Linux...

The ribbon in MS applications is fine by me. What irks me is the new style of windows that have search boxes, icons and notifications in the title bar.
  Sometimes I don't know where to click to drag a window without finding some icon that someone thought needed to be prominently shown where maximise, minimise and close should be.

The loss of the top left corner menu is a smaller issue, but I often miss the Windows 3.x consistency in window controls.

What if the battery is not there to add to those two other sources, but only to allow them to buy more of what they use at off-peak prices?
They would still be grid tied, but some times they'd sell more of their own generation, and some times they'd be consumers.

The buyer will just not have attention span for your explanation of how bad eating dirt is and by the time they figure it out, you're out of a job and they are still tempted to double down on AI so that they don't lose face :(

Well if you look for those interviews of Americans moving to Europe, you'll find some cases of people who are freelancing after building a portfolio of clients in the good markets all over the USA.
The one time I heard someone mention $ figures, it was someone from Kansas who made a career in web advertising there and in California. Now she works for the same sort of customers and was happy to find that for the same sort of rent she paid in Kansas she was living in Lisbon, a capital city with access to the beach and many other points of interest. She said on a good month she made $12K and a bad month $2K. Plenty of people in Portugal would love to have bad months like that!

IMHO the issue here is similar to eating junk food. It's really difficult to justify paying a lot more for meals, or spending time cooking if fast food operations are optimised for selling £5 meals.
The buyer will just not have attention span for our explanation of how bad fast food is and then all profitable operations need to become fast food.

For the product managers in charge of marketing and selling a new version of the Apple Pencil that will cost £10 to make and will sell for £100...

Yep. It's not enough to have mass unemployment and environmental destruction in developed countries, the mega corporations want people to have nowhere to go to rebuild their lives without AI

Sounds like they are aiming to do in 5 years what they could not get done before, and for a lower cost. Ambitious!

I wonder what money they make from Apple and Google, because Android Auto works fine in my MX-30.

As for the rest of the controls, I don't mind using the control knob instead of touchscreen. One less screen to keep clean from smudges I guess.

Travel to without a visa - yes.
Move to - I don't think so!

Microsoft has Copilot, Waymo has Backseat Driver.
