New iPhone leaked

It made headlines.  Because it was a big leak.  It was sitting in a woman's purse at a Starbucks inside a Starbucks and even then, all of a sudden, people noticed it.

The purse had got wet and there was a foul odor accompanied by a trickle oozing and then dripping faster than what the baristas were pulling from their imported coffee makers.

All the techies gawked, along with the millennial gen who hitherto were involved with rapid fire texting and OMG and LOLS.  What in the world was this?

Even the utility crews who fancied an occasional thrice a week splurge on pricey caffeine that were not planning a visit that day stumbled in from their site as the odor overpowered them and one of them fell out of his perch near a transformer.  He wasn't transformed but the odor dragged them to see what gas this was.

Meanwhile the gal from the restroom whose purse it was shows up and gets agog at the brouhaha surrounding her carryall.  Who's in my 'coach' she shrieked?

Now local cops and some media type arrived to add to the melee only to discover that this hyper blonde had forgot to dump her fourth child's, three day old diaper after yanking it from a recent incident on the road heading to (or from) wine country.

Her latest iPhone sat next to this package had interacted with the warm contents and somehow leaked its own chemicals that caused this turn of events.

Last reports indicate she was suing both Apple and P&G.  Apple because her haptic interface had become septic and P&G because they could not keep (her shit) a secret.

On the go(zay masta) in Japan again

Cool cat the Japanese are Tokyo at dusk  My second visit to this land of the rising sun after almost a decade. Back then clearly I was wet behind the ears product manager and likely didn’t pay attention to all (efficient) things Japanese. But today I did and of course continue to be impressed. It is as much the obvious stuff like on time travel that is both clean and comfortable and all that which makes it possible. The impressive landmark and landscapes that these humans have put together despite their cramped (or because of it) surroundings and precarious geological conditions could amaze a novice architect among us. But it’s also the little things that someone had to think about which have a phenomenal impact on day to day lives that make the Japanese stand apart. Below are few random examples- 1. Providing a very fine machined wooden toothpick in every packet of wooden chopsticks. The said chapsticks are simply set on the To Go counter of any food vendor/ convenience store wher...

A few good books

 On an informal mission to read one book a week as long as the eyes allow for such ambition. Fiction or non is not important as long as it entertains and /or educates. To that end the past few weeks have brought a bounty in the form of some wonderful and then not so engaging literature. Among the notables are - Non fiction category: 1. Good arguments by Bo Seo (how to handle a dispute or debate the most efficient way possible) 2. Genesis by Eric Schmidt (and former US Secy of State Henry Kissinger, who recently passed) - how AI might affect our lives as we know it 3. One in a billion - Zarna Garg (an autobiographical look at an Indian born American woman with a bindi narrated in a standup format - yes it is at times cliched but still funny) Fiction: 1. Personal by Lee Child (a vigilante story with Jack Reacher the giant, nomad protagonist of Child's novels goes hunting for a sniper) 2. Ramayana unraveled by Ami Ganatra (she might disagree about it being a work of fiction but oh wel...

Presumptive Society

Today's world is hyper connected.  I am not so sure what it means but you hear it a lot.  It is probably hyper but not sure how connected it is.  Sugar (fermented or not) is available in many ways than before and so getting hyper is easy.  It is probably more a threat than cocaine since it is sold legally. And what is this connected stuff?  Most people I encounter seem disconnected from reality.  So going back to this assumption that we are connected there are subtle and no so subtle instances of how brands and companies and middle men try to portray someone - A linkedin profile for somebody working for X years at a place advertises to the connected network that so and so is CELEBRATING X years @ Such and Such Inc. Do we know if (s)he is celebrating or cringing?  Perhaps a better way to portray will be - So and So LASTED X years @ such & such inc. Then it exhorts the readership to go ahead and congratulate them for this lasting effe...
