Qualcomm has just announced a weaker than expected forecast and partly put it down to macroeconomic headwinds.

It should surprise no one that given inflationary pressures and a cost of living crisis in developed markets, things like phones will be harder to sell.

I have mixed feelings about this. Good business, but gets the PRC off the hook for welfare of its own—more money for weapons. OTOH every iPhone I buy does the same thing. Apple can’t get out of China fast enough.

What a great way to drive the use of bicycles for everyday commuting, instead of automobiles. While the Netherlands have always been far ahead of anyone else in bike usage, there's always room to improve. They get a lot of rainy days, so being able to park inside has at least two advantages. You don't get soaked while unlocking your bike, and you don't have to sit on a soaking wet saddle.

Bike use benefits the planet's ecosystem, too. And it benefits people, too, as they get more and more fit and healthy.

It's just too bad that America, which overall is moving in the right direction in some cities, political divisions have created anti-bike sentiment in other cities, creating a hazadous climate for cyclists.

It's only a garage, but making it look stylish and hip worth the extra effort.
