In business, the term ‘business funds (capital)’ has two very important meanings. One refers to the initial resources of the business and serves as the standard for measuring profit, while the other indicates that the owner of the business funds owns the business. If the profit rate is high, it shows the business is strong, and the amount and type of business funds needed depend on its size or nature. To start a large-scale business, you need substantial funds. If your funds are not enough, you will have to borrow from someone else or close the business. Until you pay it back, it’s not truly your own business. Business funds reveal everything about the business. In other words, the source is capital, meaning ‘root.’ It’s false to claim the business was successful without any of its own funds. A business must have some form of funds—cash or otherwise—to survive. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

A significant part of the business involves a productivity problem, and humanity has addressed this issue through the use of tools. During the era of industrialization , machines served as the primary tools of production , but in the information age , software has largely supplanted hardware. Additionally, smartphones have made both hardware and software more accessible. These digital tools, known as apps, are easy to duplicate and distribute; however, they only become impactful in reality when the hardware, referred to as a computer, is widely distributed. Yet, the reality remains that humanity still doesn’t fully understand the tools at its disposal. As people don’t recognize the true potential of a smartphone, don’t they simply use it only as a phone book, right? - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

My mother uses an old cell phone instead of a typical smartphone. My father passed away without ever owning a cell phone. Though they were my parents living in the same era as technology advanced, they struggled to learn how to use a computer. As a result, my parents felt increasingly out of touch. Existing in the same timeframe doesn’t guarantee that everyone experiences the same advancements in civilization. Although time progresses universally, its impact varies among individuals. This variance is shaped by our memories and cognitive perceptions. Thus, the saying, “You don’t miss your water till the well runs dry” remains relevant. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Good design balances "form follows function" and "function follows form. An example of a design where form follows function is an airplane. An example of a design where function follows form is a doorknob on one side of a sliding door that opens only in one direction. It doesn't matter which came first, the chicken or the egg. The more you understand the technology, the better the design will be. With their many features, smartphones have simplified their form with touchscreen functionality. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
