Why Is Everyone Buying Bonds?

Over the past year, companies and investors have gone all in on bonds. Most of the top tier tech companies hold tens of billions if not hundreds of billions of dollars in bonds and it’s the same story with Warren Buffett. But, why is everyone buying bonds? Well, the most obvious reason is rising interest rates which have made bond investing much more attractive. For example, you can currently earn over 5% from the US federal government, not just for the next 6 or 12 months but for the next several years or even decades. If you’re willing to take on more risk and invest in corporate bonds, you can earn up to 78% which is very comparable to the returns of the S&P 500. Combine this with the fact that the stock market hasn’t been performing as well over the past 2 years and it’s no wonder why so many investors are looking for alternative investments. This video explains the mechanics of bonds and what has made them so attractive recently.

These Don't Even Work. Why Do We Still Use Them?

We’re all familiar with the “I’m not a robot” checkboxes. Apparently these, small puzzles are supposed to prevent bots from wasting resources and spamming. But, more recently, it seems like the only people that the CAPTCHAs are stopping are actual people while bots are able to pass right through. The reality is that the truth isn’t far off from this. Over the years, CAPTCHAs have become less and less useful and there are dozens of bots that can easily crack CAPTCHAs even better than humans. In fact, you don’t even need bots to crack CAPTCHAs. There are fullon businesses built around offering services to crack CAPTCHAs. But, if CAPTCHAs are so useless, why does every website still use them? Well, while they are not that effective at stopping bots and spammers nowadays, they are still super effective at collecting Google data. Think about it, what type of content is generally protected by a CAPTCHA? Usually, it’s something that contains some sort of tangible value, and by having CAPTCHAs all over the place, Google is able to brilliantly collect data on our most valuable online activity. Over the years Google has also cleverly used CAPTCHAs to digitize books and train AI, so they don’t really have any plans of ditching CAPTCHA altogether. Also, they offer it to websites for such a low price that it doesn’t make sense for these websites to not use them. This video explains the evolution of CAPTCHAs and how they went from being an effective bot prevention mechanism to being a goldmine of data.

What Happened To Corsair?

Corsair is one of the biggest names when it comes to computer hardware. Over the past decade, they’ve made a name for themselves as the premium computer hardware maker who’s known for their RGB and overthetop designs. More recently though Corsair hasn’t been doing so well. In fact, Corsair stock is down 76% and the company is barely breaking even despite having been in business for 30 years. One of the main reasons for this is far more competition. Companies like Razer, Thermaltake, HyperX, Asus, and G Skill have given Corsair a run for their money when it comes to aesthetics and RGB, largely eliminating Corsair’s differentiating feature. Also, it seems that Corsair’s software and more importantly, their customer support is more than subpar. The company barely has a 2star rating over 1,000 reviews on Trustpilot. This video explains the major issues plaguing Corsair and what happened to the oncedominant computer hardware brand.

The Tragic Fate Of Dailymotion

We all know Dailymotion as that one videosharing platform that sometimes pops up when we look for a video on Google. It usually has something to do with copyrighted content whether it’s a cartoon show, TV show, or movie as Dailymotion generally has looser copyright policies than YouTube. This has gotten Dailymotion in trouble with authorities on several occasions over the years. Yet, Dailymotion has continued to maintain relatively loose policies. This, in itself, however, has not been enough to keep Dailymotion relevant within the video streaming space. In fact, Dailymotion has been slowly fading into relevance as YouTube has consumed more and more of the space. Both of the founders have since left Dailymotion after it got bought up by a traditional media organization. This video explains the slow rise and downfall of one of the OG video streaming platforms: Dailymotion.

This Guy Stole $120M From Google & Meta (& Nearly Got Away)

We usually think of companies like Google and Meta as some of the most secure and advanced platforms on the market. They hire the absolute best talent on the market and pay exorbitant salaries, so this is not surprising. What may be surprising is that a random guy from Lithuania was able to pull a quick one on Google and Meta. And this wasn’t for some small amount like $50k or $100k. Evaldas Rimasauskas was able to steal $23 million from Google and a whopping $98 million from Meta. Also, this wasn’t a onetime thing either. Evaldas was able to outsmart these tech giants for years, and if he didn’t push his luck he very well may have gotten away with it as well. But, eventually, these companies did catch on and they reported the theft to the FBI who were able to track Evaldas down to Lithuania in no time. Evaldas would end up pleading guilty and be sentenced to 5 years of jail and significant amounts of restitution. This video explains the crazy story of Evaldas Rimasauskas and how he was able to steal over a hundred million dollars from the smartest companies in the world.

Companies Have Given Up On Being Profitable

Net profit is virtually useless for modern companies as it doesn’t benefit founders, shareholders, or employees. This might sound a bit counterintuitive, but it’s the case with basically every tech company and startup. Even more legacy companies like Disney are starting to adopt this mindset when it comes to new products. The only thing that these companies actually care about is revenue growth and user growth. As long as these two aspects are growing rapidly, the stock of the company also skyrockets. Historically, this would only benefit founders and shareholders, but in recent times, employees are given larger stock awards than ever, especially in tech. Most tech employees nowadays actually care more about stock compensation than cash compensation. They simply want a comfortable cash wage and everything else to be paid in stock. This creates this unique situation where the company making net profit is basically useless. This video explains how the importance of corporate profitability went down the drain and why modern companies don’t care about profit.
