"Buyers aged 25 to 44 will make up 75% of business buying teams in 2024. When engaged in face-to-face buying, these buyers find personal interactions with product experts more meaningful than all other in-person activities."

I’m thrilled to announce that we will expand our AI and cloud infrastructure in Spain by $2.1B USD in the next two years. Our investment is beyond just building data centers, it’s a testament to our 37-year commitment to Spain, its security, and development and digital transformation of its government, businesses, and people.
La inversión de @Microsoft en España se va a cuadruplicar y llegará hasta los 1.950 M€.
Quiero agradecer a su presidente, @BradSmi, su confianza en la economía española y en nuestra hoja de ruta para una transformación digital inclusiva y segura.
Además, hemos analizado las oportunidades de cooperación para el refuerzo de la ciberseguridad y la promoción de inteligencia artificial en la Administración Pública.
La colaboración público-privada es imprescindible para encarar con éxito los retos de la transformación digital.
I logged into X for the first time in a few weeks - and am being served a cacophony of angry and xenophobic content. Is it just me or has Twitter veered to the right?

I watched the interview below and it’s clear that the US and Europe aren’t more evolved than Africa from a societal perspective.

When I first saw this graph, the main thing that stood out to me was that Japan has the world's least spicy food.
Even Brits eat spicier food.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The word "spicy" may be misinterpreted to mean how "hot" the food is, while the chart only reflects on how many different spices are used in average, eg. using Vanilla, Seaweed and Dill would count higher than just Capsicum

Quite, quite mad. Goodbye data interoperability. Even non-EU firms abide by GDPR when they count EU users as part of their client base.
It's almost as bad as suggesting we should have a British internet that doesn't connect to anyone else. (That'll probably come soon.)

Based on keyboard strokes, @Microsoft graphed the average behavior of a worker: a camel-like double hump of activity, where many of us are doing nose-down work around 10:30 a.m., and then again at 2:30 p.m. From there, it’s a slow descent into the evening.

Is it just me or does @HubSpot now seem unjustifiably expensive when you have dozens of similar vendors out there? It's not that you can't afford the price, it's that you can't justify it. Or is this what great UX is worth?
