​​💿 The Rise and Fall of the Compact Disc

Having been hit by the rise of MP3 players in the early 2000s, #CD sales nearly halved between 2000 and 2007, which is when smartphones and the first music streaming services emerged to put the final nail in the compact disc’s little round coffin.

20: Every legal permutation of the Cube can be solved in 20 moves or less. This is called “God’s number,” as in, even a deity couldn’t do better.

4.59 seconds: Current world record for the quickest solution.

$1.5 million: Value of the Masterpiece Cube, the most expensive ever made, using 18-carat gold riddled with rubies and emeralds.

​​When #Facebook reported its Q4 results on January 31, the company had to admit for the first time that its user base in the United States 🇺🇸 & Canada 🇨🇦 had stopped growing on a QoQ basis. While the number of MAUs (monthly active users) remained flat at 239 million between Q3 & Q4 2017, the number of DAUs (daily active users) even declined from 185 to 184 million users.

Facebook is expected to see an exodus of users aged 11 to 24 this year. While a lost user is never good for the company running the affected platform, Facebook can probably take solace in the fact that most of its young deserters will remain active on #Instagram, the platform that Facebook foresightedly acquired in 2012.
