I'm long way out of tech community talks, but I have been highly interested in ARM powered Windows laptops. They thinner, lighter, last longer on one charge and can be really powerful. Overall, they can be more efficient than the Apple devices, since you only need one. But can someone explain what happened to ARM powered x86 development? Is there some conspiracy behind the scene like how Hydrogen powered vehicle got murdered?

Generally speaking, I don't believe reading more books helps your thinking better than going back to smaller amount of books, unless you just need the knowledge to be used for now. Memorizing is not good enough when reading a good book; it requires more time thinking than reading to grasp the essence of a good book.

It wouldn't hurt his reputation throwing such opinions. After bashing down index, he suggested everyone should take a look at some small caps in Japan. That wouldn't hurt either. The point of investing in index is because it saves our time and energy to try to become excellent investors(just maybe). He's selling something, obviously, he's not even trying to lay opinions.
