• Electric Bike Company Model Y review: A luxury cruiser ebike

  18-11-2021 21:40
  
  Most of the ebikes we’ve tested at TNW have futuristic designs, ample smart features, or minimalist aesthetics. But sometimes you just want something a little more classic, and for that, the Electric Bike Company’s Model Y exactly fits the bill. Made in the USA Electric Bike Company is a relatively rare breed of an ebike brand in that its bikes are actually designed and built in the USA. Pretty much all of the company’s bikes are some variety of beach cruiser, and though some

• Google News probably thinks I cover Spiderman because algorithms are dumb

  18-11-2021 20:20
  
  Google News holds a special place in the world of journalism. When multiple media outlets report on the same topic in a short amount of time, the articles that make it to the main News page are seen by the most people. It’s no different than any other media industry. If you’re a musician, you want your song to show up on Spotify’s main page. If you’re in a comedy movie, you want it to be listed first in the “comedy” section on Netflix. That’s why one of

• 4 compelling conspiracy theories about Amazon’s beef with Visa

  18-11-2021 17:29
  
  On a crisp autumn morning in London town, I awoke to an email from someone whom I hate but just can’t quit: Amazon. The company was writing to notify me of some important news: it will soon stop accepting Visa credit cards for UK payments. Customers will still be able to use Visa’s debit cards, but the firm’s credit cards are getting dumped on January 19. The coverup story notification email from Amazon. Amazon blamed the move on Visa’s high processing fees, but conspira

• China is leading the retail revolution, but can it change the way the world shops?

  18-11-2021 16:36
  
  China’s dominance in manufacturing has made it the factory of the world. The subsequent economic growth enriched an ever-expanding middle class, and the country’s retail industry has quickly adapted to supply a growing appetite for consumption. Some of these developments in the way people spend their money, powered by the latest technology, will soon be appearing on a device near you. Indeed, at the start of this year, The Economist suggested that retailers everywhere should look to

• Some employers opting for geo-specific pay as remote work becomes norm

  18-11-2021 15:36
  
  The Covid-19 pandemic has transformed how and where people work. Although it’s difficult to predict the long-term trends that will evolve as a result, it’s clear that many tech workers are considering moving away from expensive city centres. Back in February, Spotify announced that its 6,550 employees can choose where they want to work in the future. Whether that’s in an office, a coworking space, or a beach in Bali. It doesn’t matter! In 2020, Dropbox also announced the

• PDF Expert is an all-purpose tool for making your PDFs as friendly to edit as a Word doc

  18-11-2021 15:00
  
  TLDR: This award-winning app can help you complete any PDF project, from editing to filling out forms to even creating PDFs of your own. PDFs pulled away as the primary web document format of the digital age in the early 90s because they offered high quality versions of those documents in a comparatively small file size. But while they looked great and didn’t take up much space, the downside of PDFs have always been just as forward-facing. Even with many editors and across all operating s

• Why professionalism is boring AF

  18-11-2021 14:31
  
  On Monday, I received the draft of a new marketing campaign for a company I follow. It looked professional, but not in a good way. It was easy to imagine what kind of conversation preceded this campaign. Someone probably said, “I want it to look professional,” and so the marketers went with that. The campaign reflected a mature and professional organization. But it also looked like it could fit any organization. It was polished, clean, and corporate. But not original, emotional and

  Facebook has rebranded itself to Meta, and is fully committed to building a metaverse. To achieve its grand vision, it’ll need to launch multiple groundbreaking devices, controllers, and supporting hardware. The company has already shown off some concepts and research projects in this area, and some of them are fascinating. Here’s a list of what we’ve seen so far: Haptic gloves In its series of prototype devices, gloves with haptic feedback for VR. These gloves are meant to ma

• Instagram is late to the ‘rage shake’ party

  18-11-2021 11:29
  
  Another day, another Snapchat feature lands up on Instagram. The Meta-owned app has now implemented a ‘rage shake’ feature that lets you shake your phone to report a bug. Last night, Instagram‘s chief, Adam Mosseri, announced this feature alongside another one that will let you delete a specific photo from a carousel. Pretty neat. You can watch the feature in action in the video below from the 55-second mark. You can also turn the toggle off so you don’t accidentally lan

• I’m calling it: 2022 is the year of circular design

  18-11-2021 10:29
  
  I’m calling it. 2021 was the year of the electric vehicle. I predict, 2022 is the year of circular design.  We recently saw batteries makers Northvolt produce its first lithium-ion battery cell featuring a nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cathode produced with metals recovered through battery waste recycling. This is a big deal.  While this is a huge leap in battery innovation, we’re not entirely there yet. The company aims to produce cells with 50% recycled material by 2030
