Just my thoughts #0323

Netflix initially started as a DVD rental service and grew, but it soon encountered a crisis with video streaming technology. Nevertheless, it wasn’t feasible to abruptly abandon the existing business and transition to a digital distribution model, highlighting the significant conflict involved! Video streaming technology is not a complementary service to DVD rental; rather, it serves as an alternative. When expanding or improving a business, it’s crucial to clearly understand the defining attributes of the target product or service. Burgers and french fries complement each other, while burgers and chicken sandwiches are substitutes. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0096

British anthropologist Robin Dunbar was certain that primate cerebral neocortical capacity determines the number of social relations. He definitively established the limit of human relationships at 100 to 230 people. The average value of 150 people is known as Dunbar's number. In the world of chimpanzees, 30 is the absolute maximum. However, fewer than 12 people in the world can sympathize with me. My best friend is now reduced to 3 or 4. The relationship quantity decreases to the square root value and increases to the square value. Three or four of my best friends will eventually connect with people from all over the world. This is the same principle as when one or two virus-infected people infect the world. Focus on your best friend. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
