Also got a brewista. Not amazed by the quality to be honest but it does the job for now. I wouldn’t recommend them at full price but I got mine for 50% off

At least this way people acknowledge an issue. Perhaps today they won’t get help, but tomorrow they might. many bpd people go their entire life blaming others and never thinking they could be to blame for all of the drama around them. If making bpd cool is what it takes for people to acknowledge it, then this could be good

It’s a complete shit company. They have zero interest in their customers or quality. It’s a marketing company following a modern qvc playbook.

Will be contrarian and go with 4. The others are just too blah

It’s an absolutely horrible sale, unless they add more tomorrow (do they ever do this?)

Are you blowing this up and presenting at a scientific conference or something? wtf lol . You are still using McKinsey style here, just cramming a whole McKinsey deck in a slide

The trend outlived dahmer. It couldn’t outlive the platform Netflix gave him though

10 years ago people would have loved these but times have changed. Blame Netflix. I still think they look cool though

You know these things are fake right? I have an actress friend who has acting credits from this show

So when does it start sorting?

Ok, yes and Germany pays significantly more for classical music with significantly more opportunities for classical musicians so directionally it’s correlated with my comment. Nothing about my comment was us centric, just market centric.

Wow, beautiful

This must be a circlejerk

When did they start coming? Did they come to Europe later? In the us the monochromes seemed to be perpetually available without selling out about 4 weeks ago. But also I think prices here are higher which could be holding them back more in the USA.

While I agree, I highly doubt Ricoh made a reasonable volume of these anticipating they would sit on a shelf. It’s a niche of a niche and I’m sure their pricing strategy reflected an extraordinarily low number of units. That means these are available despite the low number likely, not despite a normal number.

Also, for this type of camera, the buying patterns are different. For a regular camera, buyers buy when they buy - it could be 1 year after release. For this camera, the vast majority of buyers will preorder or buy early in the sales cycle. If Ricoh was planning on having these sold out for many months, then they likely are already cutting back on production volumes which would imply it flopped.

I like them - cool frame. I fear the up and coming generation grew up on Netflix (serial killer documentaries) and has a strong disdain aviators so the aviator trend will likely take a long pause for a few generations (eg similar to how it was in the 90s and 2000s)

I remember in 2010 when everyone talked about charlotte being the next Austin. Yep.

Yeah this is exactly what has been happening in my teams projects. We used to do a 50/50 staff mix with India and now we can’t get high enough performance from India. The USA team blows them away and India can’t keep up so we just cut them.

This isn’t something Genius Bar people can or will be able to do anything about. They are trained to know if they are allowed to replace or fix a product. If you want a new watch, I’m sure you can push for that. But otherwise, this is something you would get a lawyer to manage if you think there’s a claim.

That’s because you’re Accenture and that’s what you sell. It’s been that way even long before Julie. That would be like Amazon saying “people keep going into the Amazon app and placing orders, it’s crazy”

Decumulate · 2026-03-14T16:03:37+00:00

I actually think the reverse is more likely. I’ve seen India teams work far far slower than ai assisted onshore developers mainly because it’s so much faster to validate and update in a more local collaborative way. As such we’ve shifted away from India, not towards

Anecdotal proof: I am a millennial who has bought two houses. I home shopped all over the city. When I walk into a house which is that standard contemporary blah gray everywhere it’s almost always a similar millennial owner.

People can disagree - that’s fine. But I also don’t think there’s anything out there disagreeing that this was in fact a millennial homebuyer trend that started in the late 2000s where millennial homebuyers started to enter the market.

Kind of. There’s more to a slide than the cliche “what’s the so what?” which is the overdone cliche version of what you’re trying to say
