A typical novice investor is someone who Googles “best stocks to invest in under $5.” It’s not because they’re asking Google where to invest their hard-earned money, it’s that they’re associating the price of a stock with the size of a company. That’s not how investing works. Tesla at $700 a share is not more […]
We’re gobsmacked by the sheer number of special-purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) launching, given that most of these SPACs offer little value to the retail investor. One of the exceptions (if not for the premium stock price) is the recent IPO by Butterfly Network (BFLY), which is disrupting the ultrasound industry with a portable medical device […]
Almost every day we read about how artificial intelligence is outcompeting humans. The latest involves an algorithm that outmaneuvered a fighter pilot in a simulated dog fight. While no one (well, there’s probably someone) is ready to hand over the flight controls to a machine, we’re not too far from when AI algorithms will help […]
If your job is to screen hundreds of resumes to find the perfect candidate, it’s impossible to compare them all, so you look for red flags. Something as simple as a typo will land your resume squarely in the circular filing cabinet because you clearly don’t pay attention to details. Similarly, when you’re assessing hundreds […]
Aside from destroying the social fabric of our society, Facebook has enabled a whole generation of parents to post endless photos of their little rug rats doing all sorts of nauseatingly cute things. New parents are probably the worst, celebrating the life of their child every few weeks, as if we still lived in the […]
Big disruptions keep coming in smaller packages. Take the handheld ultrasound machine from Butterfly Network, a startup out of Connecticut that has basically turned a smartphone into a digital medical imaging device. The company found a way to squeeze ultrasound technology onto a single silicon chip – and charge less than $2,000 in the process. The […]
We’ve been researching and writing about disruptive technologies for over a decade now, and every day our inbox fills up with all kinds of emails. While most inquiries come from PR firms and link whores, the remainder runs the gamut: from Catherine in Texas who wants us to help her rent a car, to the schizophrenics […]
The emerging technologies that we cover on Nanalyze are poised to disrupt almost every industry on the planet, which is perhaps why just about every business on the planet has started calling itself a technology company. Perhaps no industry will experience this seismic shift more than healthcare. We’ve been covering a ton of AI healthcare […]
Parasites are unique in that they infect a living organism in order to get a free ride through life at the expense of the host. Like today’s modern-day millennial, parasites are careful not to disrupt the equilibrium too much so that they’re not kicked out and forced to fend for themselves. Since parasites consume nutrients […]
Investing in emerging technologies can be extremely risky. It can also be extremely rewarding – and not just for your bank account. Technologies like artificial intelligence have the potential to change the world in many different ways. One of the industries where AI is already making real advances is healthcare, such as the ability to […]
