Apple supplier Foxconn replaces 60,000 workers with robots
That's about a 15% increase. Restaurants are already automating the ordering process here. Applebee's is phasing in iPads at tables to place orders, so fewer wait staff are needed. With a $15 minimum wage that trend will just accelerate.farmboy said:
Nah. Australia raised their minimum wage a big amount, and despite all the furor, it raised the price of a Big Mac about $0.45. The gloom-and-doomers are full of it. You can pay a lot of workers a lot of hours before you get to the cost of robotics for a burger job.antonpablo said:Fast food chains will be doing the same cause of $15/hr minimum wage.

Apple invests $1B in Chinese ride sharing service Didi Chuxing
Sounds like a shakedown here. China bans 2 of Apple's key services. Apple invests $1 billion in a Chinese company. If China reverses the ban it will reek of a quid pro quo.

Watch: Apple's 2016 MacBook vs. 2015 MacBook in speed test comparison
The MacBook is limited by Intel. Apple could perhaps put a 15W Core i5/i7 with an active cooling system into a 2.5-2.75lb notebook with a larger footprint, the way some other manufacturers like Razer, HP, and Acer have done, but perhaps that's what they have planned for the MacBook Pro.mhigasi said:Unbelievable how a company with 2.5 billion R&D budget has a such a slow upgrade pace. Where is all the money going to?
