The document summarizes key events in 2008 for Yahoo, including Microsoft offering $44.6 billion to acquire Yahoo at $31 per share, a 60% premium over Yahoo's stock price at the time. While Microsoft's revenue was flat or declining in areas like MSN, search volume was growing faster for Google than Yahoo. The document evaluates various financial ratios and metrics for both companies and concludes that while Yahoo was still a good, healthy company, Google better understood search and online advertising.

The document summarizes key events in 2008 for Yahoo, including Microsoft offering $44.6 billion to acquire Yahoo at $31 per share, a 60% premium over Yahoo's stock price at the time. While the offer was significantly higher than Yahoo's stock price, Yahoo's management rejected the bid. The document also reviews Microsoft and Yahoo's search volume trends, financial ratios, and balance sheets, suggesting the $44 billion offer seemed reasonable given Microsoft's struggles competing with Google in search and online advertising, and Yahoo's decreasing search market share.

Royal commission on labour in india 1930 bombay vol i part ii
The Chief Engineer of the Lloyd Barrage and Canals Construction project discussed the labour employed on the construction works. He estimated that the total number of labour units employed so far in 1930 was around 206,856, and that they hoped to employ around 300,000 units by the end of the year. The majority of labour came through contracting systems from various regions, including many returning workers. Sanitation and drinking water arrangements on work sites relied mainly on local wells, though the engineer acknowledged the need for periodic testing of well water quality.

The document discusses various computer terms and technologies. It provides definitions for common computer hardware and software components like the personal computer, laptop, hardware, software, and hard disk. It also defines Internet-related terms such as the World Wide Web, website, newsgroup, chatroom, and FAQ. The document contains a glossary of computer and Internet terms.
9 Things Succesful People do Differently
The document provides advice on how to achieve goals based on research into successful people. It recommends setting specific, measurable goals and planning specific actions. It also emphasizes the importance of regularly monitoring progress, having realistic expectations of difficulty, focusing on self-improvement over proving abilities, developing grit, exercising willpower, avoiding temptation, replacing bad habits with good ones, and learning from both successes and mistakes. The overall message is that success comes from deliberate actions, not innate qualities.

Depletion of resources
1. Predictions from 1972 about depletion times for various metals like gold, silver, and nickel by the year 1992 turned out to be inaccurate as depletion times were later found to be longer.
2. Proven reserves of resources like bauxite, iron, tin, nickel, zinc, lead, and copper have increased significantly between 1950 and 1990 as new discoveries were made.
3. In a famous bet in the 1970s, economist Julian Simon argued against biologist Paul Ehrlich's prediction that resource depletion would cause mass starvation, and Simon won the bet as commodity prices decreased over the following decade.
The expectations from "Front Line Managers"
An effective and efficient sales manager must have a strong grip on key opinion leaders in the region through good team penetration and in-depth analysis of regional sales. They should efficiently monitor return on investment, know the profiles of each field force member, be an effective planner with a bulls-eye focus on activities and sales, ensure timely execution and settlement of advances, and work on developing product knowledge.

Strategic Leadership and Innovation at Apple Inc.1
“Stop and look at Apple for a second, since it’s an odd company . . . While most high-tech firms focus on one or two sectors, Apple does all of them at once . . . Apple is essen- tially operating its own closed miniature techno-economy . . . If you follow conventional wisdom, Apple is doing it all wrong. And yet . . . this is the company that gave us three of the signature technological innovations of the past 30 years: the Apple II, the Macintosh and the iPod.” (Grossman, 2005)
APPLE’S FALL AND RISE
Voted as the most innovative company for three consecutive years during 2006–2008 and as America’s number 1 most Admired Company (McGregor, 2008), Apple seemed to have it all: innovative products that have redefined their markets (such as the iMac and the iPod), a consumer base as loyal as a fan club, and a business model characterized by vertical integration and synergies that no competitor could easily imitate. The Apple brand had transcended the barriers of the computer industry to traverse the consumer electronics, record, movie, and the video and music production industries (see Figure 1 for an outline of Apple’s product and service portfolio). In 2008 the Apple brand was listed as the 24th most valuable global brand (up from 33rd place the previous year), valued at $13.7 billion (Interbrand, 2008).
After a lackluster period during 1989–1997 when Apple was nearly written off, its dynamic comeback was impressive. Between 2003 and 2008 Apple’s sales tripled to $24 billion and profits increased to $3.5 billion, up from a mere $24 million (See Table 1 for an outline of Apple’s financial performance during 2006–8). Apple topped Fortune 500 companies for total return to shareholders both over 2003–2008 (94% return) as well as over 1998–2008 (51% return) (Morris, 2008: 68), a remarkable achievement.
But things haven’t always been that rosy for the company once known as the underdog of the computer industry. During the time when Steve Jobs was not part of the organization (1985–1997) Apple progressively degenerated to the p ...

Apple complete
Apple Inc. experienced significant growth between 2007-2009, with net sales increasing from $24 billion to $36.5 billion. The largest increases were seen in iPhone sales, which grew 266% during this period. However, Apple faces challenges including a recent stock price decline due to the absence of the CEO, losing exclusive rights to use its own GUI, and relatively high product costs. To address low market share in some areas, Apple may pursue a price differentiation strategy by extending its product line to include lower-cost options. The company's future success will depend on continued innovation, stimulating demand through new features, lowering prices, and maintaining strong relationships with third-party developers.

Writing Sample - Equity Research - AAPL
Apple Inc. designs consumer electronic devices including computers, phones, tablets and music players. The report issues a HOLD recommendation based on a valuation of $125.66 per share. While strong iPhone sales and a large cash position provide upside, uncertainty around new products like Apple Watch and a lack of sustainable growth models for maturing products like the iPad and Mac present risks.
A Deal Against The King - JRM
Microsoft made multiple attempts over several years to acquire all or parts of Yahoo, eventually reaching a 10-year search and advertising deal in 2009. This gave Microsoft an increased share of the search market from 8% to 12% and a large portion of search ad revenues from Yahoo sites. However, capturing even half of the total search market share was seen as unlikely as Google had already captured about two-thirds of the market through strong customer loyalty. The deal was seen as Microsoft getting significant benefits without an upfront payment, but some questioned if Yahoo gave up too much of its search business for the deal's value.
Apple
The document provides an overview of Apple Inc. including its history, brand philosophy, line of business, competitors, market share, SWOT analysis, financial performance, and corporate social responsibility efforts. It also includes recommendations to further expand Apple's market potential through opening more retail stores internationally and doing more to protect the environment.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
