![]() ![]() That 'something bigger' prevents you from going off into the ether when people flock round you and tell you how fabulous you are when you aren't and how great your stuff is when it isn't. It helps to have an ego, but you must be in service to something bigger if you are to inspire the people you need to help you (and make no mistake, you will need them). If you're not obsessed, then stop what you're doing and find whatever does obsess you. Other people consider them to be somewhat insane. They see things from angles that unlock new ideas and insights. They don't think the way other people think. They developed strategies to survive, and as they grow older they find ways to apply these strategies to other things, and create for themselves a distinct and powerful advantage. These people tend to be freaks and misfits who were forced to experience the world in an unusually challenging way. But if you're extreme, you must be what you are, which means that happiness is more or less beside the point. Your odds of happiness are better that way. Extreme success is different from what I suppose you could just consider 'success', so know that you don't have to be Richard or Elon to be affluent and accomplished and maintain a great lifestyle. Quora - How can I be as great as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Richard Branson?Įxtreme success results from an extreme personality and comes at the cost of many other things. His strategy for Tesla Motors reminds me of Henry Ford's strategy for the Ford Motor Company: get people's attention by building cars that win races and drive really fast, and then sell them a more useful version (Model T) by using the cachet you earned from your race cars.Are you aware of anyone who has the drive and knowledge you had when you were starting Zip2, but for whom bad luck has caused them to not be as successful as you?.Before its sale, Musk, the company's largest shareholder, owned 11.7% of PayPal's shares. In October 2002, PayPal was acquired by eBay for US$1.5 billion in stock, of which $165 million was given to Musk. PayPal's early growth was due in large part to a successful viral growth campaign created by Musk. Following this, Elon was removed as CEO by the board, who appointed former PayPal founder Peter Thiel interim CEO. After initially co-branding PayPal with the X brand, including making PayPal a subdomain of X.com, he moved to officially remove the PayPal brand for good. Elon Musk strongly favored the X brand over the PayPal brand. The creators of Yelp, YouTube, and LinkedIn all worked with him at PayPal. The original intent was to merge the two systems, but it never happened. PayPal and X.com each had a person-to-person email-based payment system. One year later, the company merged with Confinity, which operated a subsidiary called PayPal. In March 1999 Musk co-founded X.com, an online financial services and e-mail payment company. Musk received 7% or $22 million from the sale. Compaq acquired Zip2 for US $307 million in cash and US $34 million in stock options in 1999. Musk obtained contracts with The New York Times and the Chicago Tribune and persuaded the board of directors to abandon plans for a merger with a company called CitySearch. The company developed and marketed an Internet "city guide" for the newspaper publishing industry. Musk started Zip2, a web software company, with his brother, Kimbal Musk. In 2002, he was naturalized an American citizen. in applied physics at Stanford but left the program after two days to pursue his entrepreneurial aspirations in the areas of the Internet, renewable energy and outer space. In 1992, after spending two years at Queen's School of Business, Kingston, Ontario, Musk transferred to the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and received a Bachelor of Science degree in business and a second Bachelor of Science degree in physics. He did so to avoid service in the South African military, and also because he concluded it would be easier to emigrate to the United States from Canada than from South Africa. ![]() ![]() ![]() Elon taught himself computer programming and at age 12 sold the computer code for a video game called Blastar for $500. Musk graduated from Pretoria Boys High School and moved to Canada in 1988 at the age of 17, after obtaining Canadian citizenship through his mother. Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa to a Canadian mother and an English-born South African father. ![]()

All told, that means that James has arguably had seven extra seasons of superior physical ability to work with. Two of those Jordan seasons came when he played for the Washington Wizards, after his second NBA retirement when he was well past his physical prime. We covered one of the basic explanations for Jordan's career numbers in the first paragraph. In short, circumstances aligned for James in a way that they didn't for Jordan. So how did that happen? Why didn't Jordan, universally considered the greatest scorer in NBA history, break Abdul-Jabbar's record? Well, there were a few factors at play. Furthermore, he will now presumably tack-on a few more thousand points before he hangs up his Nikes for good, turning a record that most thought would probably never be broken into one that will never be broken. Yet it's James who became the top man on Tuesday. He finished his career roughly 6,000 points behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. It's somewhat surprising, then, that Jordan didn't ever seriously challenge for the NBA's all-time scoring record. ![]() But if you need a bucket, you'd take Jordan without thinking twice. ![]() James is the better passer and rebounder of the two. At his peak, Jordan averaged over 37 points per game. Jordan averaged 30.1 points per game across 15 NBA seasons compared to "only" 27.2 for James in his 20. LeBron James and Michael Jordan are the two greatest players in NBA history, but when compared strictly as scorers, Jordan is almost inarguably the superior talent. ![]() ![]() Oscar win: Best Supporting Actor – Master of Ceremonies in Cabaret (1972) Star Trek role: Caylem, Star Trek: Voyager “Resistance” There are just five on this list, and four of them won before they found their way to Star Trek. Let’s take a look at those who’ve won–or come close to winning–that golden statue. Yet the movies and TV series combined boast a fair number of Oscar nominees in their ranks.Ĭhristopher Plummer (Star Trek VI‘s General Chang), a one-time winner and now a two-time nominee, is up this year for his role in All the Money in the World. With Star Trek: Discovery‘s Doug Jones (Saru) co-starring in (but oddly not nominated for) The Shape of Water, which is up for 13 Academy Awards on March 4, and Plummer in the running for his second win, it’s time to take a look at all the previous Oscar winners and nominees in the acting categories who have appeared in the Star Trek franchise. It speaks volumes that so many talented and well-known actors want to be a part of it. But when it comes to acting, the total of nominations for it in Trek movies remains at zero. ![]() Over the years, various Trek movies have received nominations for art direction, original score, make-up, visual effects, and sound effects, starting with Star Trek: The Motion Picture all the way up through Star Trek Beyond. Abrams’ Star Trek took one home for make-up, with the award going to Barney Burman, Mindy Hall, and Joel Harlow. Star Trek itself has only won a single Oscar in 2010, J.J. The Oscars are coming, the Oscars are coming! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Compare the prices of any compatibles listed above for yourself. The biggest difference is usually price with compatibles costing far less. You can opt for an original ink manufactured by HP themselves or choose a compatible cartridge which is manufactured for Stinkyink by a trusted third party. ![]() You have two main options when buying HP Photosmart 5510 ink. Slight problems with the paper stop and card slot don’t detract enough to prevent a recommendation.Buying the right ink for your HP Photosmart 5510 printer In all the important areas, it goes much further than most of its rivals, from its touchscreen controls to its high-quality print and low-cost consumables. HP did very well for itself in our recent reviews of its DeskJet budget all-in-ones and this Photosmart 5510 does the same for home and photo-enthusiast customers. Both these are very good for a low-cost machine and HP is obviously not trying to recoup to much of its low asking price in the Photosmart 5510’s consumables. Ink cartridges are available in two yields and using the higher capacity XL cartridges gave running costs of 2.9p for black and 7.3p for colour. Our test photocopy was hard to tell from an original under most conditions, with very little lightning of colours in the copy outstanding for a budget machine.įinally, photo prints were clean and smooth, with plenty of shadow detail and natural colours showing only a slight preference for blues over reds. Draft mode print, while very slightly more jagged, only reveals this on close examination and for most purposes could save you time and ink.Ĭolour prints are excellent, with good bold colours, no signs of banding or dither patterns and excellent alignment of overprinted black text. Print quality is surprisingly good, with little sign of black ink feathering, even on emboldened headings, and no signs of head pass misalignment. A single page colour copy took a very reasonable 27s and 15 x 10cm photos took identical times of 1:02 from both a PC and an SD card again an above-average result. The text and colour graphics print gave 4.6ppm, not quite so close to the 7.5ppm claim, but still a worthwhile speed for this class of machine. This is not far off the speed claim and is a very good speed for a low-cost all-in-one. In our tests it didn’t reach either of these throughputs, though the 5-page black text test produced a speed of 6.5ppm, which rose to 9.2ppm on the longer, 20-page test. The HP Photosmart 5510 is rated at 11ppm printing black and 7.5ppm printing colour. The ink cartridges clip into the head carrier very easily and the support software includes HP PhotoCreations and support for ePrint. The printer can be connected via USB or wireless, though wireless is the easier option, particularly if your router supports WPS setup. It’s in the manual, but if you’re the type who likes to work things out from first principles, it’s easy to get confused. It’s not at all obvious that the paper feed tray pulls out, like a skeletal paper cassette, so you can feed small paper sizes into the bowels of the machine. Then there’s feeding 15 x 10cm photo blanks. As pages come through, they ride up the angled paper stop and often overcome the little ridge at the top which is supposed to stop them. This is a common enough way of doing things with inexpensive all-in-ones, but here there’s a swivel-out paper support, for some reason coloured brown against the black livery of the rest of the machine, and with a long flip-up paper stop, which is both flimsy and ineffective. There are a couple of other slightly unfortunate design features in this machine.įor a start, printed pages stack up on top of the input tray. Unusually, this slot is very fiddly to work a card into. To the left of this is a flip-open cover for the dual memory card slot, which takes SD and MemoryStick cards. It’s very easy to use and has separate indicators for wireless connection and HP’s remote printing ePrint function.ĭirectly below the control panel is the fold-down front cover, which becomes the paper feed tray. The small, neat control panel is touch-sensitive, with a 60mm touchscreen boarded down either side by three touch buttons. The top of the flatbed scanner lifts without problem and the whole scanner section hinges up equally easily to get at the four, independent ink cartridges. This is a long, low machine, with simple and practical lines. This seems to happen more quickly with HP printers than some other makes and the Photosmart 5510 is a good example of the kind of technology you can now buy for under £60. As new technology finds its way into printers, it slowly filters down from the premium to the budget models. ![]() ![]() ![]() Other aspect ratios, such as 5:3, 5:4, and 1:1 (square format), are used in photography as well, particularly in medium format and large format.

Quick access to the macOS Disk Utility program proves handy for quick repairs, and it’s simple to access cloud-based accounts such as Dropbox and Google Drive to see what’s gobbling up space and quickly remove old files and projects on the fly. Previews of files can also be brought up by clicking the file name to better remind you as to what something is and if it’s worth keeping. After scanning a partition, move the mouse over the image map that DaisyDisk creates to get an idea as to what’s taking up the most space and how this relates to the overall drive. The result is an application that quickly scans your Mac’s volumes after you’ve entered an administrator password, then shows you which files and folders are taking up the most space, helping you to quickly prune things down to size.ĭaisyDisk also keeps a running count of how much space you’ve cleaned up recently, providing an even more entertaining incentive to dig in and clean up those forgotten project folders that once gobbled up dozens of gigabytes of hard drive space.ĭaisyDisk’s premise is simple enough, and a bevy of new features keeps it fresh, interesting, and handy. The application focuses on locating file clusters, groups them by size, and offers a quick and easy means of dragging them to a delete icon and getting rid of them forever, bypassing the Finder’s Trash. Other apps have been more streamlined, seeking to perform fewer functions and executing them well.ĭaisyDisk, the brainchild of developers Taras Brizitsky (who programmed the original idea, interaction, and graphic design) and Oleg Krupnov (who now handles the code and technical support) as well as a large group of translators and contributors, belongs to the latter group.
