What if the dinosaurs hadn’t been wiped out by an asteroid?

[ad_1] An asteroid wiped out the asteroids and if that had not happened, our world might look very different. Sixty-six million years ago, an asteroid hit the Earth with the force of 10 billion atomic bombs and changed the course of evolution. The skies darkened and plants stopped photosynthesising. The plants died, then the animals that fed on them. The food chain collapsed. Over 90% of all species vanished. When the dust settled, all dinosaurs except a handful of birds had gone extinct.But this catastrophic event made human evolution possible. The surviving mammals flourished, including little proto-primates that would evolve into us. Imagine the asteroid had missed, and dinosaurs survived. Picture highly evolved raptors planting their flag on the moon. Dinosaur scientists, discover...

Neutron Elon: Why Twitter’s Boss Is More Like Jack Welch Than You Think

[ad_1] Massive layoffs, a cult following and the goal of complete domination: Musk and GE’s longtime chief have a lot in common, but is Elon’s star beginning to dim just as Welch’s has? Elon Musk's recent moves to put his stamp on Twitter Inc. call to mind another cult figure of corporate America — Jack Welch. Both men have achieved mythic status in capitalism, generating vast wealth and cultivating slavish devotion in the process. Welch, who helmed General Electric Co. from 1981 to 2001, became famous for massive layoffs, championing shareholders over staffers and for financial engineering that ultimately led to catastrophe after he left. The style earned him the nickname “Neutron Jack.” Musk has a Steve Jobs-ian ability to know what customers want before they do, which has made h...

Apple’s Brain Drain Hinders Efforts to Pick Its Next Jony Ive

[ad_1] Company searches for a new design chief after Ive’s successor departs following three-year stint. Turnover at Apple Inc. has hindered efforts to replace the head of product design, leaving a gaping hole at the helm of a prominent team that's been key to the iPhone maker's prolonged success. Legendary design leader Jony Ive departed Apple in 2019, and his replacement for hardware design lasted just about three years. Now the department — still in Ive's shadow — needs a new leader at a time when there are few obvious choices. And the fate of Apple's hardware devices, which accounted for more than three-quarters of its nearly $400 billion in revenue last year, hangs in the balance. Evans Hankey, who has held the job since Ive left, informed Apple last month that she will be d...

Apple’s most revolutionary product since the iPhone coming? It is so ‘Jobs-ian’, says Dediu

[ad_1] The rise of micromobility presents Apple with a chance to make its most revolutionary product since the iPhone. For seven years, Horace Dediu has been thinking about one idea almost every day. A longtime handset industry analyst and avid Apple follower, Dediu, 54, also popularized the term “micromobility” to describe a growing array of small, non-car electric vehicles. His obsession is at the intersection of all those interests: Dediu is convinced that Apple Inc. should make an e-bike, or something like it. “I fundamentally believe there's no better product for Apple in mobility than micromobility,” Dediu says. “It is so Apple, so Jobs-ian that it just smacks you in the face…Steve would have been all over this.” It's an open secret that Apple has spent nearly a decade work...
