What I have learned today [2015/6/14]



1. Esports is growing. I like to watch some tournaments time to time. But I am always concerned about rigged matches. It is even easier with Esports.

2. Nobel laureate resigns after sexist remarks. There should definitely be more women in science. In terms of sexism, well, we should just be more respectful. Let's assess by merits and abilities not gender.

3. Hollywood makes a lot of remakes because they are safe and cheaper. Yup, best investments!

4. Retailers' flexible schedule are exploiting retail workers. I doubt that this trend will stop. If wages rise, they will systematize or automatize process, further decreasing number of workers. Retail is only going to get more competitive.


5. Alibaba plans to have a streaming service. This is a good move because Alibaba realized that it has to compete by content. I see Alibaba making its own production like Amazon and Netflix. This will be a great plus for all consumers. For investors well...content takes time to develop so Alibaba will spend lot of money before you see tangible returns.
