  • Analyst: Apple will release iPhone twice a year

    In a leaked internal memo last year, Apple hardware chief John Turners described the current iPhone product roadmap as “the most ambitious ever”. This week’s revelations have finally given the outside world a glimpse into what Apple’s “ambition” looks like. According to two well-known technology sources, technology analyst Ming Kuo and veteran technology journalist Wayne Ma, this week, Apple will enter a state of “releasing new phones twice a year” from iPhone 18. As for the iPhone 17 series, which will be released in September this year, it has already been “spoiled”: including the basic iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, as well as the new ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air. The main upgrade points include the “full range of high-swipe screen”, and the shape of the camera bulge behind the change. (iPhone 17 series model leaked picture, source: tom’s guide) This week’s latest news has made investors aware of the product updates they can expect in the next few years. According to the revelations, Apple’s entry-level models will also enter the state of annual updates. After the iPhone 16e released in February this year, the iPhone 17e will be launched early next year. After the 2026 autumn conference, four models will be released, among which the iPhone 18 Air is the same size as the 17 Air. The “Dynamic Island” design of the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max may be changed to a “pill hole” in the corner. Of course, the most attention should be Apple’s first folding screen phone iPhone 18 Fold. It is worth noting that the iPhone 18 will not be released until the beginning of 2027, together with the iPhone 18e, which means that the release node of the basic model is beginning to become the first half of the year. So there will be a total of 6 new iPhone in 2027. Of the four new models in the second half of 27, iPhone 19 Air will have a larger screen. The camera opening of the Pro model may be completely eliminated, and iPhone 19 Fold will be the second generation of folding screen models. In recent years, sales have been basically stagnant as iPhone product iterations have fallen into a lack of impact. Although Apple still sells hundreds of millions of phones every year, the lack of growth is always a risk hanging over Apple shareholders. Mr. Kuo said Apple’s shift to a twice-a-year iPhone strategy was mainly influenced by the fierce competition in the Chinese market. Chinese competitors usually release new phones in the first half of the year, and if Apple also launches new iPhone, it will narrow the marketing window. In addition, as competition intensifies, Apple will need to provide more products such as ultra-thin new phones and folding screen phones. If they are all released in September, marketing resources will be scattered. Shipments in the past few years also show that the proportion of shipments of the Pro series has continued to increase after the launch, which has squeezed the affordable models. For Apple, changing the release roadmap is only part of the narrative. To significantly boost replacement demand, Apple also needs to come up with eye-catching software and AI updates. Investors will hear more about this at next month’s WWDC.

  • Google Maps new feature scans iPhone screenshots to save forgotten locations, but privacy concerns

    Google Maps has launched a new feature that scans users’ screenshots to identify locations and add them to a private list. The feature is designed to help users find frequently taken screenshots more quickly. According to Google’s blog, the feature has been launched in the iOS app and was announced as early as a month ago. Instead of using location data or image recognition, it uses Google’s in-house Gemini artificial intelligence (AI) technology to scan text in screenshots for names of places mentioned. This is a limited but initial attempt at a more powerful version. In the “You” tab of the Google Maps app, users can find new private lists. As soon as you update to the latest version, users will see a private list labeled “Screenshots”, as well as tutorials for using the feature. This “Screenshots” folder will display the latest screenshots containing the names of the locations. Users can click the “Review” button to see the locations detected by Google. If it is confirmed that it is correct, you can choose to save, otherwise you can choose not to save. The app will display the saved locations on the map. In addition, users can also authorize Google to automatically scan all screenshots to detect locations, or add images manually. However, considering Google’s controversy over user privacy, the idea of allowing companies to scan my screenshot library and record location information is very disturbing to me. This kind of location data may be sent to Google’s servers, processed, sold, and used to build user profiles, which is at the heart of Google’s business model. In addition to privacy concerns, I’m also wondering how much utility such a feature brings. On iOS, users can long-press any text to look up online, including addresses and place names, which means that information on screenshot locations can already be easily and quickly obtained without relying on Google Maps updates. Still, this doesn’t prevent other users from possibly finding this new feature useful. If you want to try it out, make sure to download the latest version of Google Maps on the iOS, which will also be updated to Android devices in the future.

  • World of Warcraft: ICC is about to open, and there are still so many equipment worth buying!

    The World of Warcraft WLK nostalgia service is about to open the ICC version, so when the new regiment and new equipment arrive, what other Odur and TOC equipment is worth buying? First of all, let’s take a look at the situation of HTOC. If the national service directly opens the H difficulty ICC, then the 258 equipment of HTOC is almost not of much value. The only thing that can be used all the time is the H death judgment of some professions, as well as the comfort of the H defeated in the healing profession and the H beetle jewelry of the tank profession. There is also the armor-breaking cloak of 272, which is the full version of BIS for some professions, and is definitely worth buying. The other 272 capes will be replaced by the 277 cape of HICC, but the improvement is not very large, and 272 has not been used too much problem. And if the national uniform only opens ordinary ICC, then the cape of 272 is still BIS, which can be used for a long time. Moreover, some 258 equipment of HTOC is also not bad, such as Wagley’s Wail and other equipment with the best attributes, but the 264 equipment of ordinary ICC is very small. In addition, some of the 252 equipment of Audur that is not redeemable also has a certain value, because the Scourge Stone of the Blasphemer can only be exchanged for capes, rings, necklaces and accessories. Like Night Boots, Crazy Arm Armor, etc., there is still a certain value.

  • The most amazing century-old store in the world? 3M: We can make anything but God!

    The full name of 3M company is Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing (Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company). It was founded in 1902 and is headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, USA. Minnesota has 2 airports to form a twin star pattern! 3M company is the business card of Minnesota, USA, just like lobster in Maine! When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out in 2020, no one thought that masks would become hard currency and become a rigid demand in people’s daily lives. Scientific wearing of masks has become a compulsory course for everyone. Among many types of masks, the best protective effect is n95, so n95 masks also became the best-selling champion at that time. Many people went from not wearing masks to learning to wear masks scientifically to being able to distinguish the quality and model of masks. Wearing masks scientifically can effectively block the spread of diseases, so people attach great importance to this matter. Because of the importance of masks, many people know a company called 3M, and when it comes to masks, they think of 3M as a platform. Many people know this company because of buying masks, but for 3M, its industry is not limited to masks, and masks are only a small part of its industrial chain. This company contains an extremely wide range of industrial fields, involving countless fields, in industrial chemicals, electronics, communications, transportation, automobiles, aviation, etc. As long as you can think of it, this company has a design, as long as it exists in the social industry, this company has coverage. 3M company is also known as a legend in the industry, and there seems to be nothing that 3M can’t make. 1. Brand determination Although masks were not a necessity for life before the outbreak of the epidemic, people often use masks to protect their respiratory system when smog and bad weather occur in many places. Before this, the market for masks was relatively small and did not have such a large demand, but it has always been marketable. With the outbreak of the epidemic, it has not become a necessity for life, so the market demand has increased sharply and the supply is in short supply. However, there is also market competition. The masks under 3M can stand out from many mask brands. Because the epidemic is coming, people want better quality n95 masks when choosing masks, and 3M masks among many n95 masks have been favored and trusted by the public. Many people look for this brand when buying masks, thinking that buying 3M masks must be right. 3M’s brand has always been deeply loved by the masses. In the hearts of the public, he is known as the representative of health. Whether it is SARS, smog or the current epidemic, he is the first choice brand in people’s hearts. The epidemic has further exacerbated the influence of this brand and established the image of 3M as mask processing in people’s hearts. People do not have a deep understanding of 3M. As long as it can meet the daily demand for masks, people think that 3M is just a mask processing factory, but they do not know that it involves all aspects of our lives. From small office supplies to medical protection facilities, the 3M brand can be seen everywhere. For example, the tape used in our daily life, the reflectors on the road and the electronic devices that can be used for people’s entertainment all come from this company. It has penetrated into all aspects of our lives unknowingly, but we have never cared about it. 2. The development of 3M. So who created this omnipotent and omnipotent 3M industry? This started 118 years ago. In 1902, the United States set off a gold rush. Mining became the path to wealth that people were keen to pursue at that time. Many people began to set up mining companies, and 3M’s predecessor was also a formal mining company. Five young people with a gold rush came together and started a mining company. But starting a business is not as easy as imagined. Although they all know that mining can get rich quickly, the risks and technologies involved need to be overcome one by one. And not every gold prospector can achieve their dream of wealth. It is precisely these five people who are a clear example. Their mining road was not smooth and ended in a fiasco. Not only did they not make a fortune through mining, but they also lost a mess. But these five young people did not give up easily, but looked for another opportunity. The so-called all roads lead to Rome. If this road doesn’t work, try that one. After all, those who have the courage to try at that time are more likely to succeed. After failing to establish a mining company, they finally found a new business opportunity through unremitting efforts. In 1914, the sandpaper they developed was successfully launched and became an exclusive product. The market demand for sandpaper continued to expand, and they did not become complacent. When I first developed this product, it was aimed at some problems in automobile manufacturing. At that time, the scratched parts of the car needed to be painted, and some areas that were not sprayed properly needed to be covered. It was very difficult to find something that could have a blocking effect and not affect the appearance. This problem was also discovered by a 3M employee who wanted to help the car repairman solve this problem. It was a kind of isolation tape that could be used on the car that was invented. Since then, it has been upgraded and processed, and scotch tape has come into being. The creation of scotch tape has brought great convenience to people, and it has become a necessity for every family. For 3M, the invention of scotch tape at that time was just to think that some industries would use it for sealing and moisture protection, but it did not expect that it could affect people’s lives and involve all aspects of people’s lives, so much so that during the Great Depression, many factories used this tape to reduce production costs. Speaking of which, many people found that scotch tape was also a product made by 3M companies, and they began to have a new understanding of the brand, but its achievements do not stop there. In daily life, we not only use scotch tape, but also have a must-have item, that is, post-it notes. Office post-it notes can be seen everywhere. In schools, students will also use post-it notes to mark and review books, which is enough to reflect its wide range of uses. Although we have all used post-it notes, the dramatic story behind the invention of post-it notes is rarely known. The story took place in the 1970s, when a 3M research and development scientist invented a highly sticky glue, and when he invented this sticky glue, he accidentally invented a weak sticky glue. The scientist named Silver did not want to give up his invention. He wanted to find a way to make this glue into products and use it in people’s daily lives, but couldn’t think of a good way. So I called my scientific colleagues to discuss it together. Just at this time, one of the researchers participating in the meeting was a member of the choir. He often felt very annoying these days because his marked poem pages always fell, so he used this weak glue to solve this problem. It is also because of this that the weak glue has a place to use and can become a good helper to solve some small troubles in life. After processing and perfecting, it is made into post-it notes. Now we can buy post-it notes in stationery stores, and the post-it notes come in a variety of styles and look very beautiful. 3M Group shows endless creativity. Its employees will always be curious about some things and then deeply study and solve problems, so as to create things that have never been seen in the world. The purpose is to make everything in the world more convenient and help people enjoy life better. Therefore, we have to sigh at 3M’s creativity. 3. Unique rules can become a century-old store. 3M relies on its super innovation ability. Up to now, 3M has developed nearly 70,000 products and holds 118,000 patents. In the Forbes global innovation company ranking, 3M once ranked third, second only to Apple and Google, and beat Tesla. On the 3M headquarters building in Minnesota, it is clearly written “Curiosity is just the beginning (everything starts with curiosity) “. Of course, having curiosity is not enough, there must also be time and money to explore. People always like to use rigid rules to restrain themselves, like to do repetitive things, unwilling to think about problems, we always lack the sense of innovation, can only accept new things but not create new things. The reason why 3M can have super creativity is that the company has a special rule, that is, the 15% rule, which also brings endless innovation to 3M Group. In this company, every week has 15% of the time is their own, in this 15% of the time, you can go to use your brain, play your imagination, satisfy your curiosity, to research and explore what you are interested in, if you have a very good idea, but the funds are not enough, you can also apply to the company for support, you do not have to consider whether your ideas are related to the development of the company, as long as you have a novel idea, and the idea after evaluation has the expectation of development, then the company will continue to spare no effort to support the development of your idea, whether it is success or failure, will not affect your work in this company, you will be rewarded for success, failure you can still return to your original job to continue your previous work. It is the company’s 15% rule, and it is also a brand-new innovation management model. The reason why this company can create countless patents and invent countless novel things is also closely related to this policy. This innovative management model that solves the worries has brought unexpected results. 3M’s post-it notes, the first gauze, etc. are all the results of this model. This has also attracted many Internet companies to follow suit. For example, Google simply upgraded the “15% rule” to the “20% rule”. It is this “unproductive” and “unfocused” approach to innovation that has made 3M a boss across various fields, jokingly known as “creating everything except God”. Audio tapes, video tapes, carbonless carbon paper, dry silver film, and projection systems were all invented by them; the first reflective sign for highways and the brightening film for electronic displays were also invented by them; the boots worn by American astronaut Armstrong in the space capsule during his trip to the moon were made of 3M synthetic rubber; the harder core products are bulletproof helmets and bulletproof baffles, and the latest IHPS combat helmet issued by the US military, which claims to have the strongest protective performance at present, is also a product of 3M company… This is really something only you can’t imagine, and it can’t be done without 3M. Nowadays, our country is paying more and more attention to the development of innovation, paying close attention to the cultivation of talent innovation, setting up many innovation and entrepreneurship competitions in universities, and no longer just relying on rigid grades to determine the development of a student. This policy is beneficial to our country’s future scientific and technological development and innovation. Having said so much about 3M Group, we have a more accurate understanding of this group. We know that it is not only a production of masks, but also that the production of masks is just the tip of the iceberg of this group’s industry. We also understand why this company can develop in all aspects and why there is so much innovation. Enterprises in our country need to learn from this group in the model of innovation and entrepreneurship, because innovation is the source of development and the first driving force for a country’s sustainable development. The picture comes from the Internet. If there is any infringement, please contact to delete it.

  • 20 years after Boeing moved its headquarters from Seattle to Chicago, the headquarters building has become a “ghost town.”

     

    About 20 years ago – just days before the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States crippled the airline industry – Boeing announced that it would move its headquarters from the historic manufacturing center of Seattle to downtown Chicago in the Midlands. The relocation plan is also at the heart of Boeing’s plan to create a new image as a diverse global behemoth. It also isolates Boeing’s top executives from the day-to-day operations of its global business units, which are closer to Wall Street’s Financial Institution Group. Now 20 years later, Boeing’s corporate headquarters is in trouble amid an epidemic that has shaken the industry. Reuters reports: “Boeing’s Chicago headquarters becomes’ghost town. ‘” A new cohort of mostly coastal executives is dealing with industrial and safety certifications for its major divisions, as well as dealing with the 737 MAX and coronavirus crises. Meanwhile, Illinois and Chicago tax breaks for Boeing are set to expire at the end of the year. A symbol of the new Boeing, the vision of the company’s core business above their component parts has clashed with the need to reclaim engineering dominance and repair relationships with customers and federal regulators. Brian West, the newly appointed chief financial officer, is also based mainly on the East Coast, and while the COVID-19 pandemic is a major factor, the upscale and fully functional corporate headquarters in Chicago has become silent, according to people familiar with the matter. “It’s a ghost town,” one of them said. Pictured, in an article published by a Seattle Post reporter on September 3, 2001, “Boeing Quietly Opens Chicago Headquarters,” a modern 36-story office building on the south bank of the Chicago River west of the Loop, a $200 million riverside skyscraper. And now Boeing has begun to let go of real estate, including the Commercial Aircraft Headquarters in Seattle. Several people familiar with Boeing’s situation said cost cuts and a more hands-on corporate culture raised questions about the city’s long-term future and the direction Boeing was taking as it tried to regain its footing. However, Boeing insisted that important business was still taking place in Chicago and rejected any suggestion that it would leave its Midwest base. “Chicago is strategic to Boeing’s US and global operations,” said a spokesperson. “Like other companies, we have adopted a hybrid approach to working with our employees, our customers and other stakeholders during the global epidemic.” Boeing said it and its employees had invested nearly $50 million in recent years to support the Chicago community. Despite the new focus, others warned that leaving the city could spark a local storm. And against a backdrop of industrial and regulatory concerns, leaving the city is far from a priority for Boeing. In 1997, Seattle-based Boeing merged with its St. Louis-based rival, McDonnell Douglas, a decision that angered rank-and-file workers and engineers. So Boeing decided to leave Seattle and move its headquarters to a more neutral location, separate from its existing power center. Some critics said Boeing’s move in Chicago was a symbol of the company’s emphasis on short-term profits and shareholder returns over its long-term engineering ethos. That accusation resurfaced after two consecutive 737 MAX crashes in 2018 and 2019. Picture, Demonstrators hold photos of crash victims during a vigil on September 10, 2019, on the 6-month anniversary of the crash of a Boeing 737 Max airliner in Ethiopia (Washington, USA). This is starting to be a signal that they will make investments in the future, regardless of past loyalties, said Richard Aboulafia, analyst at Teal Group. For some, it’s just a way to show that they won’t make any investments at all in the future. Over the past 20 years, the state of Illinois, Cook County and the city of Chicago have provided Boeing with more than $60 million in taxes and other incentives to encourage them to move their headquarters to Chicago. Now those credits have expired – though Boeing will receive 2021 funding next year. The incentives, which required Boeing to keep 500 full-time employees in its offices, were scrapped at one point in a trade dispute between Boeing and Europe’s Airbus over unfair subsidies. A Chicago spokesperson said Boeing’s report showed it had 513 full-time employees in Chicago in 2020. Boeing also employs thousands of people in Chicago and the Metro East area near St. Louis in southern Illinois, the Illinois spokesperson said. However, a close review of the BGA analysis of the Illinois decision reveals that Boeing has not met the 500-employee mark for at least four years. Pam McDonough, a former director of the Illinois Department of Commerce and Community Affairs, has said on social media that the indirect impact of Boeing employees in the Chicago area over the past 20 years is thought to be $4.30 billion. “These large projects are complex and strategic, but they do have tremendous economic and social benefits.About 20 years ago – just days before the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States crippled the airline industry – Boeing announced that it would move its headquarters from the historic manufacturing center of Seattle to downtown Chicago in the Midlands.

  • O’Hare International Airport: Why 8 runways? Uncover its historical role as a global aviation hub

    O’Hare International Airport is located in Chicago, Illinois, USA. It is one of the busiest airports in the world. Known for its unique structure and huge capacity, O’Hare Airport not only has 8 runways, but also plays a pivotal role in global air transportation. So, why does O’Hare Airport need so many runways? What is its history and development like? This article will take you into this aviation hub and learn the story behind it. Overlook of the Airport (taken in 2023) 1. The Birth and Early History of O’Hare Airport The predecessor of O’Hare Airport was a small airport called “Chicago International Airport”. Originally, this airport was established in 1942 as a military base called “Levi Airport”. With the end of World War II, the aviation industry developed rapidly and the demand for civil aviation gradually increased. The Chicago city government decided to convert it into a civilian airport. In 1955, Chicago International Airport officially changed its name to O’Hare International Airport in honor of Ed O’Hare, a heroic pilot during World War II. Ed O’Hare With the growth of aviation technology and travel demand, O’Hare Airport continued to expand and upgrade. In the 1960s, the airport began to build more terminals and runways to cope with the increasing number of flights. II. Why does O’Hare have 8 runways?
