The iPhone 12 Is Cool, But It Just Made The iPhone 11 An Even Better Deal

[email protected]_84 COOL NEW TECHNOLOGY

The iPhone 12 is impressive.

Some of its new features may sound evolutionary, but they hit all the right spots. The iPhone 12 has a new super-hard glass, a new design that makes it more compact and lighter than before, a new Super Retina XDR display, a super-fast A14 processor, 5G, improved cameras on all fronts, and MagSafe tech that opens up a bunch of new possibilities. (Check out our overview of all the new features of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini here.)

But at $799, the iPhone 12 is also more expensive than the iPhone 11 was at launch, and that’s a bit of a disappointment.

The iPhone 11 was a massive change in Apple’s strategy. For the first time, the Cupertino-based company positioned its mid-tier model as the front-and-center iPhone, giving it nearly all the important features of the Pro models, and all at the very

Wisconsin tells Foxconn no tax credits without new deal

[email protected]_84 NEW TECHNOLOGY NEWS

The deal with Foxconn, the world’s largest electronics manufacturer, was announced by Trump at a White House ceremony and he traveled to Wisconsin in 2018 for the groundbreaking.

Foxconn signed a contract with Wisconsin under then-Gov. Scott Walker in 2017 to earn nearly $4 billion in state and local tax incentives for a $10 billion display screen manufacturing campus and plant that would employ up to 13,000 people. But Walker, a Republican, lost in 2018 to Democrat Tony Evers, who ran as a critic of the project.

After the deal was signed, Foxconn said it was downsizing the factory to what is known as a Generation 6 plant rather than a Generation 10.5 plant. The facility envisioned now would make smaller thin-film transistor liquid crystal display screens for cellphones and other devices, rather than the larger screens that were first proposed.

The letter sent Monday from Wisconsin Economic Development Corp.

Shares of AMD fell 3.9% last Friday following the report, while Xilinx stock rallied more than 14%.

[email protected]_84 ARTICLE ON TECHNOLOGY

Twilio today announced its biggest acquisition to date, spearheading a strong move into customer data management alongside its existing API-based tools for building and running customer communications services. Twilio is paying $3.2 billion “in Twilio Class A common stock, on a fully diluted and cash free, debt free basis” to acquire Segment, a marketing technology startup that lets organizations pull in customer data from one app into another, by way of APIs, and use its platform to better control the movement of that customer data.

Arrowhead’s New Deal With Takeda Strengthens The Company’s Value Proposition (NASDAQ:ARWR)

[email protected]_84 NEW TECHNOLOGY NEWS

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) is a long-term holding of mine that just recently announced a partnership deal with Takeda (NYSE:TAK) for its ARO-AAT developmental stage therapy. I love this deal and think it yet again shows how well management is strategically and efficiently advancing an impressive pipeline through clinical development.

Arrowhead’s Deal with Takeda is a Win-Win for the Company

On October 8, Arrowhead announced that it had struck a deal with Takeda to co-develop and co-commercialize ARO-AAT, the company’s developmental therapy to treat alpha-1 antitrypsin-associated liver disease (AATLD). The partners will split US profits 50/50, and Takeda received an exclusive license to the therapy in the rest of the world for which Arrowhead will receive 20-25% royalties on net sales.

In exchange for this deal, Takeda is paying Arrowhead $300 million upfront and up to $740 million more in various potential developmental, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments.

Exclusive: TikTok Rival Triller Explores Deal to Go Public – Sources | Top News

[email protected]_84 SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY NEWS

By Joshua Franklin and Echo Wang

(Reuters) – Triller Inc, a budding competitor to popular short-video app TikTok, is in discussions with blank-check acquisition companies about a merger which would take the U.S. social media company public, according to people familiar with the matter.

The deal would come as Triller seeks to capitalize on TikTok’s woes. U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration has ordered TikTok’s Chinese parent ByteDance to divest the app, citing concerns that the data of U.S. citizens could be accessible to China’s Communist Party government. TikTok has sued the U.S. government to stave off a ban from U.S. app stores while deal negotiations continue.

Triller, which was launched in 2015 and only has a fraction of the 100 million users that TikTok boasts in the United States, has said it hopes that the uncertainty over its rival’s future will drive more influencers and users to its platform.
