The Rise of Activism in Tech Companies

Things have been changing at an almost unprecedented rate with regard to power structures. The last time I saw this happen was in the 1970s when the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission took off. Suddenly a lot of the off-color, sexist and racist jokes that many executives regularly told could get them fired.

Jaguar I-Pace vs. Tesla Model 3: Which Is the Better Electric Car?

To suggest that electric cars are having a painful birth would be a colossal understatement. Tesla clearly plowed this field and quickly recognized that the lack of a charging infrastructure was going to be a problem and, with reasonable effectiveness, dealt with it tactically. However, those "tactical" chickens are about to come home to roost and it probably won't be pretty. ...

We are approaching critical mass on a number of technologies that we will see increasingly this year.

The Smartest Tech Products of 2018

Picking a product of the year is anything but trivial because the products I cover every week range from headphones to laptops to books, cars and more.

Apple’s Self-Destructive Qualcomm, China Strategies

The reasons behind Apple's fight against Qualcomm seem as poorly founded as President Trump's reasons for wanting a wall. Pretty much everyone who understands walls -- including China, which has the biggest -- knows they don't really work. Unless you can afford to man the thing, people will find ways over or under it. ...

Tesla vs. Jaguar: The First Real Electric Car Track Shootout

I'm a longtime Jaguar fan. I've owned a ton of them over the years, and I've had both good and bad experiences with the cars. Currently I own two -- a 1970 XKE and a 2014 F-Type -- and they are about to get a sibling. I've ordered a new Jaguar I-Pace, which is the first legitimate challenger to Tesla, which surprised the automotive industry much like Apple surprised the mobile phone industry. ...
