A frank-forint árfolyam, amióta Svájcban dolgozom.

Most vagy nagyon hiányzom a magyar gazdaságnak, vagy ennyire jót teszek a svájcinak, mert aligha hiszem, hogy véletlen egybeesésről lenne szó.

A svájciak a kis falvakban a legboldogabbak. Mi is roppant elégedettek vagyunk a kis 1500 fős falunkkal. A közlekedés és infrastruktúra kifogástalan, miközben barátságos emberek és kis erdős dombocskák között éldegélünk.

“In addition, even while our hardcover sales continue to grow, the Kindle format has now overtaken the hardcover format. Amazon.com customers now purchase more Kindle books than hardcover books—astonishing when you consider that we’ve been selling hardcover books for 15 years, and Kindle books for 33 months.” Amazon: Cheap Kindles selling like wildfire, digital sales now more than paper | 9 to 5 Mac

It can be hard to rely on other people when you’re good at figuring things out for yourself. But it’s absolutely imperative if you want to make an impact. You are one person, with a sustainable max of twenty conscious hours in a day. Even if you have the capacity to master anything, it’s dreadfully inefficient to be your own resident expert on everything. You’ll end up spending more time finding information than applying it. That’s acceptable if you’re pursuing a hobby, but if you are trying to make something meaningful, you need to commit as much time as you can to creating value.

So go get help. You need it.

Jesse Lamb is Not My Lawyer : You need help.

It’s difficult to find where things are (on Android phones). More and more, I feel like it is more like (Microsoft’s) Windows in which many different hardware vendors have installed different equipment on the same platform. The (Windows’) platform has to be very neutral and cannot be special. That’s the similar problem Android phones have.

When you write an app for Android phones, there are so many platforms to consider. That’s the problem Microsoft was facing with its Windows years ago. People like Apple products because they are always predictable and work.

Don’t judge the products by how much they do. If you look at an Apple product including design and functions, the message it gives your eyes as soon as you see the product is ‘beautiful.’ You pick up some products and there are buttons, buttons, buttons, words and words. It looks ugly, and it tells you it is not human.

Neil Leifer’s Favorite Shot, Ever - Muhammad Ali: The Greatest Pictures - Photo Gallery - LIFE
“I think this is the best picture I ever made,” Leifer says, simply and without hesitation, of a photo taken with a remote trigger from 80 feet above the ring during an Ali-Cleveland Williams fight at the Astrodome in November, 1966. “It’s the only picture of mine that I have in my home. I could go on for a long time about the technical aspects of the shot, how I studied the Astrodome, planned the photo for weeks before the fight, pictured the shot in my head, rigged up the remote trigger that I used to get the shot from above while I was physically down at ringside shooting the fight — but what makes this so special, to me, is that it’s as close as I’ve ever gotten to a perfect shot. Ali, Williams, the referee, the reporters, the symmetry, the drama — it’s the one photograph I’ve taken where, looking back, I’d change nothing.” NOTE: Neil Leifer is visible here, wearing a light blue shirt and seated near the top along the left-hand side of the ring, with his camera resting in front of him.
