This @iKnightscope works as a security guard in a San Jose shopping mall. He detects anomalies, and calls the police if necessary. Turns out itโ€™s cheaper to have this guy instead of a security guard - for around $6,000 a month it would patrol your backyard or office 24/7.

In Silicon Valley, businesses focus on increasing the value of the company itself. Startups rely on raising external funds.Sometimes this strategy leads to failure - a lot of startups shut down after being unable to raise another round of financing. Donโ€™t forget to make money! ๐Ÿ˜
