give up the high cheap speed to Ouigo and Iro

by

High speed Renfe output Low Cost In Madrid-Barcelona it is the chronicle of an announced death. The company was not obtaining bad results in the corridor with the AVE but the problems with the Avril trains have removed it from the race for the price. The company renounces high speed Low Cost In this corridor. This is all that has happened. Goodbye to Madrid-Barcelona Cheap. It will be from September 8 but the decision is taken, as confirmed by The country. Renfe Saca Avlo, its high price of low price, of the corridor that moves more traffic in Spain. It is a decision that backed by the failure of their Avril trains, which had to be removed a few weeks ago in this line. The company will relocate in birds to those who buy an avlo ticket for the dates after September 7, so they will get a small Upgrade without doing any disbursement. What happened? At the end of July, Renfe paralyzed the sale of tickets of the Avlo trains in Madrid-Barcelona. The decision, which seemed surprising, soon shows its true face: the Avril trains that provided this service had suffered damage during a trip. The information was revealed by The economistwho assured that cracks had been detected in the trains. Then a pull and loosen between the media and renfe. The company began denying what happened, speaking of reorganization. Time later he confirmed that trains had suffered damage and that would circulate at a lower speed. Subsequently, Some leaked photos They demonstrated the seriousness of the damage. Finally, Renfe withdrew the Avril from the line. Because? The causes that have caused the damage to the Avril trains built by Talgo are about to be revealed. In fact, a strip and loosen between both companies have already begun to settle who takes care of the damage. Trains are under guarantee Because they delivered just over a year ago. The Avril trains were sold as a milestone of the engineering of the Spanish trains. Ra take high speed to Galicia. The latter too suffered problems with the change of year and also accumulated delays in their first days In Galicia and Asturias. But, in addition, the Avril trains have also been criticized for their Low quality in interior materials or by the Strong shakes that occur when they are in motion, far from the best European high -speed trains. In the hands of Ouigo and Iro. With the departure of the Avlo, Renfe renounces the high cheap speed. Or, at least, to a good part of it because the company ensures that it will continue to offer “Competitive prices”. However, it is difficult to think that the latter is not a specific strategy, taking into account that the Avlo seat cost an average of 37 euros, for the more than 61 euros on average of the bird, According to CNMC data. In addition, the impact of Avlo was not less on the line. It is true that Renfe had a market share of 60.1% between Madrid and Barcelona in 2024 but 12.2% of the total market share was borrowed by Avlo. That is, most passengers already moved in AVE but the Avril trains allowed them to compete in a market that will now be more complicated, with trains with less available places. The second company that has been taking over Madrid-Barcelona is Iro, which accumulated 23.7% last year, while Ouigo stayed at 16.2%. Renfe, in addition, had managed to remove customers from Ouigo because both Avlo and Iryo grew two percentage points compared to 2023. A clear bias. However, Madrid-Barcelona is a corridor marked by high prices. As we have seen, most of the travelers continue to opt for the bird despite the fact that their tickets are, on average 25 euros more expensive than those of Ouigo, always According to CNMC data. Avlo, in fact, offered cheaper tickets than those of Iro (37.8 euros compared to the 40.3 euros of the Italians). This issue had caused Ouigo itself, which offered the cheapest tickets and yet had the slightest market share, would opt for some time to remove some of its trains and boost the Andalusian corridor, more price sensitive. Now he has a new open door to insist again on the high speed Madrid-Barcelona.

of inflationary threat to historical price collapse

by

For months, the world feared a reissue of The 2007-08 food crisisWhen the rice exceeded $ 1,000 per ton and caused disturbances from Haiti to Bangladesh. At the beginning of 2024, Thai rice for 5% – referring in Asia— ton $ 650 per tonits maximum in ten years, promoted by the child, protectionism and panic purchases. And yet, in August of this year the opposite has happened: the international price slid towards minimums, driven by historical crops and yields that do not stop improving. It is the silent victory of productivity: more rice with almost the same land. International prices in free fall. In recent months, rice has been drastically cheaper. According to Financial Times5% Thai party white rice is negotiated at $ 372.5 per ton, its lowest level in eight years, after a 26% decrease since the end of last year. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Confirm the trend: Its global rice price index (FARPI) was reduced by 13% so far this year, and in July another 1.8% monthly fell, standing 22% below the previous year. Abundant supply, absent demand. In an extensive report by the Financial Times They have pointed out That, on the side of the offer, India – the largest exporter – in September last year the restrictions on external sales, while reached the market with a record harvest in 2023/24 and public stocks that reached 60 million tons in May, up to 15 million more than the average of recent years. Part of those surpluses even went to ethanol to release space before the new campaign. In addition, good campaigns were added in Thailand and Vietnam, which brought world production to a record level. On the side of the demand, Indonesia advanced purchases last year and withdrew from the market, while the Philippines forbade imports until October to protect its main harvest. “It’s that simple: there are no buyers,” summarized Samarndu Mohanty, director of the Center for Studies of Agriculture and Sustainable Development of the State Agricultural University of Telangana, cited by FT. The result is easy to define: there are plenty of stocks and lack of buyers, and, therefore, prices collapse. An exception: Japan. While global prices collapse, Japan suffers the opposite scenario. According to Bloombergthe country lives an extreme heat summer and drought in key producing regions such as Tohoku and Hokuriku. Kazunuki Ohizumi, Professor Emeritus at the University of Miyagi, has anticipated the environment: “Ris -of yields and distribution volumes will almost certainly fall.” To contain the crisis, the Japanese government released hundreds of thousands of tons of reserves and allowed to expand the culture surface. However, the measures were insufficient. In May of this year, As my partner has pointed out for XatakaJapan took an unprecedented step in 25 years: import rice from South Korea. Shortly after, the Aeon chain announced the sale of American rice Calrose, 10% cheaper than El Nacional. Social and political pressure has been enormous: surveys show a collapse in the approval of Prime Minister Shigeru Ihiba, and the controversy was fueled after unfortunate statements of the Minister of Agriculture. In addition, the Japanese country maintains a strict protectionist policy: only 770,000 tons annually enter tariff, and outside that fee the rate amounts to 341 yen/kg (about 2.30 dollars). Even in a context of world abundance, its consumers paid up to 50% more than a year earlier, According to Bloomberg. The productivity lever. The global price collapse has a historical background. According to Javier Blas in his column for Bloombergrice yields have gone from 2.4 t/ha in 1975 to about 4.7 t/ha in 2025, thanks to the massive use of fertilizers, pesticides, irrigation and improved seeds. The global rice surface has barely varied since the 80s, but the production has doubled, until reaching an expected record harvest of 541 million tons in 2025/26, According to FAO. The “monsoon proof” resilience. In particular, India has become an example of resilience. As Financial Times explained, The country has almost universal irrigation systems in the main rice regions, guaranteed minimum prices and state bonuses that protect farmers. This allows you to hold record crops even with erratic monsoons. The minimum guaranteed prices (MSP) and state bonuses ensure a mattress against international volatility. In addition, farmers buy new seeds every season, which increases yields and expands the surface. In this way, the result has been a leftover offer that New Delhi channels both the domestic and international market, and even industrial uses such as ethanol. Winners and losers. For consumers and importing countries, decrease is good news: less inflationary pressure in the basic basket. For producers, especially in Asia, it is the opposite: with increasingly expensive supplies and depressed international prices, margins narrow dangerously. Rice also becomes a stability factor or political instability. Blas Remember that in Asiawhere rice is central in the diet, a price rebound can overthrow governments. Japan is now experiencing it: the internal basis has tensioned to the administration of ISHIBA. What to wait for the future? The base scenario indicates that prices will remain weak. Analysts consulted by the Financial Times They foresee a possible additional drop of 10% if shocks do not occur as a new extreme climate episode or commercial restrictions. Blas in your column Calculate that world rice production of 2025-26 will be the largest in history, which will maintain the bearish pressure. But Japan remembers that climate change can decoupling internal markets from the global trend: a summer too hot is enough to transform world abundance into a domestic crisis. The grain that measures stability. Rice is, perhaps like no other food, the measure of our ability to feed the world. Today their prices sink because humanity has learned to produce more with less land, not because the weather has given a permanent truce. For millions of families, that means a more affordable table; For millions of farmers, the threat of an income in fall. The challenge is clear: to extend the benefits of productivity without leaving behind … Read more

It is less powerful than its previous version but it is faster and much more refined

by

The Tesla Model and Performance has been revealed. He has done it with a little surprise. The new version of the Model and Performance lowers the feet to the ground to deliver a little less power and, nevertheless, to manage them to be faster in 0 to 100 km/h. But that’s not, much less, the only thing that this new version brings. Why does an electric car have less autonomy than the announcing Tesla Model and Performance Technical Card Tesla Model and Performance Measures and weight 4,790 mm long, 1,920 mm wide and 1,624 mm high. 2,890 mm of wheelbase.

Spotify, Disney+, Steam, YouTube applications, Netflix specifically developed. PRICE From 61,990 euros More refined at a very competitive price The tightening and tesla competition rises. The new Tesla Model and Performance is the most powerful and refined version of the company’s electric SUV that We already tried this year. The model, then, already presumed to refine the formula to offer a more mature version of the original concept. Now it seems to perfect this. The Tesla Model and Performance adopts the same formula as the Tesla Model 3 Performance. The car stays at 460 hp when it used to rise to 480 hp but is faster, lowering the acceleration 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds, two tenths faster than the outgoing model in this performance version. The maximum speed is 250 km/h. In the information sent by Tesla, the company talks about “an improved battery pack, equipped with new cells that offer a higher energy density, provides more energy without adding weight.” However, its size or capacity is not specified. Of course, an autonomy of 580 kilometers is advanced, according to WLTP cycle and an average consumption of 16.2 kWh/100 km. But the new performance is also more refined. To improve its dynamics, the electric car arrives with Achnid 2.0 forged tires of 21 inches staggered with integrated aerodynamic roofs for greater efficiency. They show the red brake tweezers. The car will also benefit from new shock absorbers and stabilizer bars that are coupled in an adaptive suspension As for design, abroad brings small novelties in its front and rear bumper that show that we are facing the most powerful version (like a small carbon fiber wing) but it is inside where it has received the most care. Now, the one who opts for the Performance version also takes the best screen, which scale until 16 inches and is offered with finer frames. The pedals are aluminum and the seats are also specific with extension on the thighs. All this with a highly competitive price. Their 61,990 euros They make it one of the most attractive options in the Power/Autonomy of the market if we take into account its size. In that price range we only have Chinese options in the market. The XPEng G7 for 56,500 euros and 476 hp of power but with a slightly lower size and the Smart #5 (of Geely) that with a price below 60,000 euros is the one that offers the most power, leaving the 500 hp, but has a higher consumption. On the contrary, if we look at the most powerful options of Hyundai Ioniq 5 or the Ford Mustang Mach E we find cars with much more power but a similar acceleration, a higher consumption and a slightly lower autonomy. All for a surcharge that goes well above at least 10,000 euros more than the version of Tesla. Photo | Tesla In Xataka | Byd wanted to have his hole in history.

Europe invested 15,000 million euros in Northvolt to compete with Chinese batteries. Now it is from the US for a very small part

by

Lyten has bought Northvolt. If you have no idea who Lyten is or what Northvolt is, don’t worry, you are not the only one. The basic thing you have to know is that Northvolt was European and had managed to attract 15,000 million euros with a very potential investment of European manufacturers and institutions. But he broke and is now in the hands of Lyten (American). Step by step, we will understand how the greatest hope for the production of electric car batteries in Europe has collapsed and has ended up in the hands of a United States company for a ridiculous price. Lyten Buy Northvolt. For a figure that is not public but that points to just over 600 million euros. Although the terms of the final agreement have not been made public, it is known that Lytena Silicon Valley startup specialized in the supply of lithium-sugar batteries has achieved financing of 650 million dollars until the time of purchase, As reflected on their own website. The final price has not been revealed but in media such as Reuters It is ensured that the company had achieved another 200 million dollars for this purchase. At the moment, it is known that Americans have bought Northvolt “at a small price,” as explained in the news agency. What is Northvolt? This Swedish company was simply the great European hope in the production of batteries for electric cars. In The New York Times They explain that the facilities of this company in Sweden and Germany are among the most advanced in Europe, so they describe the purchase of Lyten as “bold”. His goals were ambitious. They assured that with NorthvoltEurope would go from producing 3% of the total volume of batteries around the world to 25%. To achieve this, the company had 6,500 employees distributed by Sweden and Germany, with facilities that had to reach a production of 60 GWh in Germany. Sustained by a huge investment in R&D. What happened? That broke at the end of last year. The company had announced that I couldn’t cope with their debts (5,800 million euros) and that had to dismiss 1,600 employees. A few months before, BMW canceled an order of 2,000 million dollars In batteries after Northvolt confirmed that he could not give them in time. As domino pieces, everything ended up falling. And, consequently, with the banking company, its facilities, workers and resources were a bargain for anyone. For anyone who dares to face years of losses in the hope of earning money. Lyten has been the company that has taken the front. Lyten. The American company specialized in the production of sulfur-lithium batteries (which is contributing to the US armed forces) has been the one that has confirmed the purchase of Northvoltincluding all its assets (also the projects they had in Canada) but, of course, assuming its debt of almost 6,000 million euros. The company, of which Jeep (Stellantis) owns 2%, believes that with the purchase some of the customers who left the company can return before their fall. The objective is to focus more on the production of batteries for electric cars and return the illusion for a competitive European production against China. However, in Reutersexperts remember that China has cost between 15 and 20 years dominate the supply chain and battery production so it is not realistic to think of short -term benefits. “If you think you can shorten it (this time), then you simply do not understand batteries,” says Rob Anstey, CEO of the Silicon Battery Batteries developer GDI. Lost investments. The most dramatic thing about Northvolt’s bankruptcy is that billions of euros of European companies may have been lost. But, above all, of European public institutions. Volkswagen was the main shareholder of the company (21%) and it is estimated that injected at least 1.4 billion euros. They were not the only ones. It is known that Volvo lifted a Joint Venture with Northvolt by Value of 2.7 billion euros. BMW also invested about 1,000 million euros and had committed another 2,000 million of euros for the purchase of batteries. Scania was also part of the investments. They joined them Financial groups such as Goldman Sachs and various venture capital funds. But we must not forget that in Northvolt he also put public money at stake. The European Investment Bank made available to Northvolt More than 1 billion eurosof which 280 million euros had been contributed and whose last departure (943 million euros) had not been disbursed entirely. To this we must add 700 million euros in direct subsidies committed by Germany and that they have not been delivered but of which Lyten can benefit if, finally, the project of its plant in Heide (Germany) is finished. And also the Quebec government contributed 160 million euros, with the promise of supporting with almost 500 million euros.

Bill Gates was concerned

by

In addition to dedicating much of his time to fighting for him Epidemia control and eradicate diseases such as malaria and different Diarrheic fevers Throughout the planet, one of Bill Gates’ main concerns has been the Obtaining sustainable energy. Something in which Microsoft’s founder has invested a huge amount of money. One of those investments has been Terrapowera company founded by Bill Gates in 2006 dedicated to the development of New generation nuclear reactors. Its objective is to create a safer, efficient and less waste energy, highlighting projects such as the Traveling Wave Reactor (Traveling Wave Reactors or TWR) and the Natrium reactor of molten salts. Gates wants to end the polluting freighters For him Natrium developmentTerrapower had the collaboration of HD Hyundai, one of the world’s largest naval builders based in South Korea. Now Bill Gates has renewed that commitment To carry that alliance a little further and advance in the development of small nuclear modular reactors (SMR) that could revolutionize the Cargueros ship propulsion of great tonnage. This collaboration represents a significant step to reduce maritime transport emissions, responsible for 3% of CO2 global emissions, comparable to those issued by countries Like Germany or Japan. The ambitious project seeks to extend the use of these reactors beyond land plants, integrating them into ships capable of traveling long distances with zero direct emissions. As confirmed In a statement HD Hyundai, La Naviera is already developing a container convener with capacity for 15,000 TEU promoted by SMR, with investments of more than 200 million dollars and the expectation of operating these ships around 2030. For its part, Terrapower provides the technology of its fourth generation Natrium reactor with liquid sodium cooling and thermal storage in molten salt, recognized for its high efficiency and safety. The alliance between Terrapower and HD Hyundai made the SMR possible The first 2024 alliance between Terrapower and HD Hyundai was an important impulse to the development of Gates Startup SMR reactors, promising a lower generation of waste in the process and better adaptation to energy demand due to its small size. In that agreement, both companies joined to manufacture the reactor vessel for the Natrium’s first land plantshowing a synergy that is now extended to climb the production and application of these SMR at the commercial level, including their use in maritime propulsion. SMR reactors (Small Modular Reactors) They are actually small compact nuclear plants with modularized design, which facilitates its series manufacturing and reduces operational costs. In addition, when using advanced technologies such as liquid sodium cooling, its use is safer in mobile scenarios such as its installation on a cargo ship, eliminating common risks in traditional nuclear energy, such as overpressure. On the other hand, their size allows to integrate them into small spaces which opens a whole range of options for its use at a commercial level as substitutes for the big diesel engines that move the gigantic charges who vertebrate world trade routes. This flexibility opens new opportunities not only in the maritime sector, but also in green hydrogen production and as support for floating electrical networks. As Chung Kisun, executive vice president of HD Hyundai, points out through the official statement From the company, “this will mean a turning point in the construction of a global nuclear supply chain and in the advancement of the change of energy paradigm.” Chris Mild, CEO of Terrapower, adds that “the association with HD Hyundai allows us to accelerate the commercialization of Natrium reactors and create market opportunities worldwide.” In Xataka | Everyone thinks that this unique yacht is from Bill Gates, although no one has ever seen it on board: it is sold for 645 million dollars Image | HD Hyundai, Flickr (World Bank Photo Collection)

I have tried the new Magic V5 honor and it seems difficult for Apple to overcome it in design with its folding

by

It has cost, but I can finally recommend them to anyone. The new folding have nothing to do with what we had a few years ago. And the new Magic V5 honor is the best example. They still have the same format, but Hand experience has finally equated to use a traditional mobile. A point that has not been easy to achievebut that in the middle of 2025 we can already say that it has been achieved. In my case it was with the OPPO FIND N5 When I had this feeling for the first time. That of a folding that did not seem heavy or uncomfortable. With the Magic V3 We experience it, with the Samsung Galaxy Z fold7 We have proven that it is the new norm and with the Magic V5 honor we ask ourselves directly to what extent the folding can improve even more in their external design. There is no finer folding In a presentation event in London, Honor has presumed to launch the thinner folding smartphone in the world, with Only 8.8 millimeters thick. This figure does not include the high part of its generous camera, but it doesn’t matter. The sensation in hand when we fold it is the same as when we use a traditional high range. It is not an ultralight mobile, because it weighs 217 grams, but it is not a figure that differs from many flagships. If we compare it with the iPhone 16 Pro Max (227 grams), we have a lighter mobile. Using it folded is practice to use a normal mobile. And we do not say it to say, the truth is that we have seen the majority of colleagues Use it for a large part of the folded time. Literally forgetting that we are facing a folding mobile. Only when it is needed is when we consider opening it and taking advantage of its 7.95 -inch interior screen. When opening it and putting it on the table on the table we realize how really fine it is: 4.1 mm thick in its white model. Fortunately it does not feel at any time fragile. Honor explains that he has also added an anti -raying shield and the inner panel is reinforced with carbon fiber. But If you transmit security despite how thin it is, it is mainly for the hingewhere this year there have been improvements. In the absence of an analysis with more time of use, the feeling that I have to open and close it is excellent, although I would not say that very different from what we have with the Z FOLD7. The Magic V5 honor has IP58 classification of dust and water resistance, a level of security that exemplifies how well integrated and sealed the hinge is. It is ahead of the IP48 of the Z Fold 7, although at this honor point behind Google with its new Pixel 10 Pro foldthat although it is considerably thicker, it does reach the IP68 certification. Neither one nor two, until three If the folding ones have so much potential, it is for all the possibilities that it allows for such a large screen. In addition to improving their design and hardware, these devices are also taking great steps in terms of software. The Magic V5 honor comes with much AI, how could it be otherwise in 2025. Honor has allied with Google To offer presinstalized Gemini. This allows access to functions such as Gemini Live to ask things that you see through the camera or the creation of videos through images with I see. I liked that honor will create a Quick shortcut to access Gemini, simply touching the back twice. Long life to gestures, both tactile and physicists in different parts of the device. Artificial intelligence also makes an appearance in photo editing, call translation and conversations translation. As well as in the portrait mode and the zoom, with that triple camera with a 50MP main sensor, ultra wide angle of another 50MP and 64 MP teleobjective. But the function that we will probably use is improved multi-flex mode. We can Use up to three applications simultaneouslywhich is a more step with respect to the multipant that we usually have in Android and one of the strengths of the folding book type. Honor and its magic layer 9.0 are taking steps in the good direction to take advantage of the format. In the case of the three applications, with a button we can change your address and the screen is divided into three zones. Unfortunately, as is the case with the multipant of two, not all applications or settings menus are compatible. Samsung has put the batteries, but honor is still at the forefront Samsung is an undisputed leader in Europe in folding. His Galaxy Fold He was the main pioneer and has earned his own right to be the reference. However, for many years Samsung has gone behind the competition. It was honor with his First Magic v The one who highlighted the importance of thinness in the folding and not leave hole when closing. Since then with its successive models it has been the manufacturer who has held the record of thinness. He Magic V2 Honor He was the first to get off the 10 mm folded and Magic V3 last year already marked a record with 9.9mm. The difference with Samsung was huge, because the Z fold6 It stayed above 12 mm folded thick. Fortunately Samsung has made a huge leap with its new Z Fold7 and the difference has been reduced to the minimum. In fact, it was Samsung’s goal to boast of having the thinnest folding, but Honor wanted to steal this position. The important thing although it is not the one who has the lowest data, but the fact that both have finally reached a pleasant point for the user. Millimeter to millimeter We have finally reached the state we all asked. In fact, the Galaxy Z … Read more

Microsoft had a saved secret. His new AI model for Copilot is the clearest statement against Openai’s domain

by

Since the fever broke out by generative AI, Microsoft has opted for OpenAi models to give life to key functions in some of its most important products. It is not strange if we remember that those of Redmond They invested more than 10,000 million dollars in the startup directed by Sam Altman. However, this alliance of convenience It has been showing fissures for months And, as time goes by, The rivalry between both parties becomes more evident. It was Microsoft itself that, a year ago, included OpenAI in his list of competitorstogether with Amazon, Apple, Google and Meta. And it is OpenAi who, According to The Informationinsists on not wanting to share its avant -garde technology when it arrives, if it arrives, the AGI. Even if you try to make up, the link is no longer as solid as in its first days. And now there is another chapter underway. Microsoft AI begins to show their own letters Mustafa SuleymanCEO of Microsoft AI, who assumed the position when the association with Openai had been consolidated for years, It has just presented two internally developed models. They are advanced proposals that users can already prove and reflect the company’s ambition: “Create AI applied as a platform for products.” One is a real novelty and another we already knew. Let’s look at the details. Mai-1-Preview. It is the great novelty. It is a Mixure-OF-Experts model, in the style of GPT-4O or GPT-5, designed to offer great capabilities in resolution of instructions and useful responses for daily consultations. According to Suleyman, it is the first model trained from beginning to end in Microsoft AI’s own laboratories. The most striking thing is that it can already be tested. Just enter LMARENAselect Direct Chat and choose Mai-1-Preview. In the coming weeks it will also arrive in Copilot, although only “for certain cases of text use.” It is paradoxical: the text functions of the Microsoft Chatbot work thanks to OpenAi, but now it will begin to live with its own technology. Developers can also request anticipated access to API. MAI-VOICE-1. It is a voice generation model that stands out for its expressiveness and naturalness. For some time now it promotes functions such as Copilot Daily (news summaries) and Copilot Podcasts, although only in English. It is also available in COPILOT LABSwhere you can try different voices, styles and narration tones. One of its strengths is efficiency: it can generate a complete minute of audio in less than a second using a single GPU. With this, it is one of the fastest and most effective voice systems that exist today. Microsoft defends that the voice will be the interface of future assistants of AI. And he wants to advance with a high fidelity solution capable of responding in different scenarios. Could I have resorted to Openai and your GPT-4o in audio version? Yes. Do you want to do it? Everything indicates not. “Much more to come. We have great ambitions for what comes next: advances in the models, an exciting roadmap in computation capacity and the opportunity to reach billions of people through Microsoft products. We are building an AI for all,” said Suleyman in X. It remains to see what course the relationship between Microsoft and OpenAi will take. What is clear to users is that there will be more variety and more tools to experiment.

Steve Jobs changed his Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG of $ 120,000 every six months. And everything was due to registration

by

When Steve Jobs was Apple’s CEO he used to drive from Your home in Palo Alto until The company’s headquarters in Cupertino. It was a trip of about 20 minutes that made several times a week with his Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG. This car, of approximately $ 120,000It was a whim that many technological entrepreneurs from Silicon Valley could afford without blinking. Jobs’s car, however, was special for a reason. Only. Unlike any other SL55 AMG that could be found out there, the one who handled the co -founder of the apple signature had no registration. If walking on the 1 infinite loop campus you met a silver mercedes in one of its parking spaces, that was your vehicle. Now, for a long time it was not clear how Jobs managed to move in a car that apparently contradicted California’s laws. Leasing. How our Applesfera colleagues collectApple’s leader was not doing anything illegal, but had found a way to use a car without registration over time. To get it, it simply changed Mercedes every six months. This was due to the fact that local regulations allowed new cars without identification for about 180 days. The idea was perfect, right? But there are many other interesting details. Do not buy. While Jobs had a lot of money, fortune that these days is using its widow Laurene Powell JobsI didn’t buy a new car every time I needed it. The technological environment Itwire had the opportunity To interview more than a decade ago to Jon Callas, who was CTO of Entrust and had worked on several positions in Apple. Callas said that Jobs had a leasing agreement that allowed him to renew his car for an identical one every year. Obsession. So why did all this the co -founder of Apple? Apparently, to preserve your privacy. Registing can reveal personal information about the vehicle’s owner, so Jobs wanted to avoid this. An interesting note is that, at least between 2006 and 2010, the businessman committed very few infractions. Wired counts that in that period of time he received two citations, both for speeding in Santa Clara. A peculiar guy. Jobs was a very particular visionary. In some aspects of his life he was very rudimentary. For example, he lived practically without furniture at home because none convinced him, Although he had a “secret room” in Pixar to develop his ideas. In certain areas I did not doubt that when He ordered a yach of 120 million dollars whose lines and minimalism remember an Apple product.
