While the Federal Reserve is trying to slow down the economy and basically kill a few million jobs, some areas are just not cooperating. Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio have been gold mines for investors in recent years, and now that gold mine is moving north into the suburbs of North Texas. It's not only attracting remote workers who want a lower cost of living, but the area is turning into the next big American technology hub that will create thousands of new jobs. That's why I started a single family rental fund that is buying properties near those jobs. If you want to find out more about our Texas Single Family Rental Fund, got to GrowDevelopments.com.Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. If you like our podcast, please subscribe and leave us a review. As real estate investors, you know that population growth and job growth are essential for a good real estate market. Texas has both of those.Texas Population GrowthCensus Bureau data shows the Dallas-Fort Worth as the top population growth region in the U.S. Three other Texas metros were also on the top ten list. From July of 2020 to July of 2021, 97,000 new residents moved into Dallas-Fort Worth. Another 69,000 moved into Houston, 53,000 into Austin, and 35,000 into San Antonio. (1)Texas Job GrowthThe Lone Star state also grabbed the top spot for U.S. job growth. According to the Texas Economic Development Corp., Texas created a total of 736,700 new positions since July of last year. More than 400,000 of them were created since January of this year. TWC Chairman Bryan Daniel says it's a record amount of new jobs for Texas within that short time frame. (2)Growth in North TexasBut while some of the big metro growth is softening, there's another Texas hot spot that is just taking off. It's happening north of Dallas, along a 30-mile stretch of Highway 75 between the cities of McKinney and Sherman, and surrounding areas. The highway runs north from Dallas and is known as the new Silicon Alley or even Silicon Prairie by some people because it's attracting big players in the chip-making industry.The New Silicon AlleySherman appears to be ground zero for much of this big tech growth. Just a few months ago, in May, Texas Instruments broke ground on a $30-billion semiconductor manufacturing campus in the city of Sherman. The TI project will be a huge 4.7-million square-foot campus consisting of four chip-manufacturing factories and an estimated 3,000 new good-paying jobs. According to an article in Axios, TI hopes to be producing tens of thousands of 300mm wafer chips a day by 2025.Governor Greg Abbott also announced several months ago that GlobiTech will expand its chip-making operations in Sherman with an additional state-of-the-art $5 billion dollar chip-making plant. The factory is expected to employ another 1,500 people and produce 2.4 million wafers a month when it's up and running. GlobiTech is the subsidiary of Taiwan-based GlobalWafers. A chip supplier for Apple's iPhone is also operating a factory in Sherman. It opened in 2018 as Finisar but has since changed its name to Coherent. The Mayor of Sherman says: “Sherman has spent years building a business-friendly climate and laying the groundwork to support large employers. Now for the second time in less than a year, that investment has paid huge dividends.” (3)President of the Sherman Economic Development Corp. Kent Sharp says the two new chip-making projects are “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunities for the region. He says: “You work your entire career in economic development with the hopes of being part of a deal that has a “B” in front of it – and we've landed two in the past year.” I think he's referring to the multi-billion dollar price tags.New Boomtown Darlings But Sherman isn't the only boomtown darling along the Highway 75 corridor. Some of the other cities getting the attention of new residents, developers, and investors include Denison, Gainesville, Plano, McKinney, and a sleepy town called Anna.The Real Deal writes about Anna, saying that developers weren't interested in Anna prior to the pandemic because it was considered too far north of Dallas. But things started changing when Covid hit the nation. Thanks to remote work, people began migrating into the Texas suburbs from the bigger metros and other parts of the country. For reference, Anna is about 45 miles north of Dallas.Anna's Mayor Nate Pike works in Sherman as a financial advisor, and is seeing first-hand how the area is changing. She says: “The amount of momentum that (local leaders are) going to put into the U.S. 75 corridor, all the way to the Oklahoma border, Anna is certainly going to feel a lot of positive impact from that.” (4)The Real Deal says the city is expecting its population to more than double by 2030. That's prompting the city to invest in things like road improvements and to simplify the permitting process for developers. New rules have reportedly shortened the permitting process from a few weeks to just a few days.The Mayor says: “We have truly created a culture of wanting to be the most developer-friendly city in all of North Texas.” And homebuilders are responding with new development projects in various cities along the Highway 75 corridor. According to DMagazine, construction permits have more than doubled in Sherman since June of last year. They are up 15% in Anna and 2% in the city of Melissa, for example.Anna's Economic Development Director Joey Grisham says: “My phone has been ringing off the hook with interest. It's definitely an exciting time for the Dallas-Fort Worth region as a whole.”RealWealth has been helping members acquire rental properties in North Texas for over a decade now, and the growth has not slowed down.

Coherent optics have been the go-to solution for high-end optical transport systems for years. Eventually these optics were modularized and with recent advances in DSP design and optics manufacturing, this technology is now available in small form factor pluggable modules. Cisco recognized the importance of this technology and acquired the industry's leader in this space, Acacia Communications in March of 2021. In Episode 24, we continue our conversation with Tom Williams, Director of Technical Marketing, who joined Cisco via the Acacia acquisition. We talk about the future of coherent optics. – Pat Chou, Cisco Optics Product Manager Tom Williams leads marketing efforts for the Acacia coherent optics team that was acquired by Cisco in March 2021. Tom has spent over 20 years developing optical transmission equipment ranging from 10G to 1.2T. He participates in a variety of coherent standardization activities in OIF, IEEE and Open ROADM and is co-chair of the OpenZR+ MSA. Tom spent nearly 15 years in various management roles at Optium, where he participated in the company's 2006 IPO and 2008 acquisition by Finisar. Tom joined Acacia in 2015, where his role has included corporate and product marketing responsibility, as well as contributing to product roadmap definitions.

The picnic continues for U.S. equities this week – even as global markets, in John’s words, “continue to be awful” with the London Exchange down 2% for the week with Germany giving back 3%. Both those markets are down for the year – but they’re getting off relatively easy compared to Shanghai, down more than 16% for 2018. Yes, the S&P 500 gave back 1% while the Dow was off a fraction – and the Nasdaq 100 even lost 3% – but all those indexes are still up for the year, including the Nasdaq 100, whose 16% gain makes it a mirror image of the carnage in Chinese equities.  On this week's episode of the Stansberry's Investors Marketcast, the hosts discuss how recent weeks have been a "picnic" for U.S. equities.  So a solid performance, all things considered – but are cracks forming in the tech veneer? Scott breaks down Friday’s economic numbers, from Finisar to Palo Alto. Facebook has a problem that’s very Facebook-specific for now – but its big weighting in the tech indices will drag them down, even as a handful of stellar individual companies continue to charge ahead.  John covers the beating that some tech giants continue to take in Washington – “As far as Facebook and Twitter were concerned, in front of the House Intel Committee, they looked like they were told to go stand in the corner.” Google’s also down $120 from its peak – and even Amazon’s 3% dip amounts to $30 billion lost on paper last week.  The talk turns to trade battles, and Scott’s assessment is that the next $200 billion tariff broadside is coming. The only question: whether or it it’s leveed at 10% or 25%.  Meanwhile, look out for the scenario Scott floats where these proposed tariffs finally hit the tech sector, with consumer brands like Apple caught in the line of fire.  Greg points out that the U.S. trade deficit with China has just hit an all-time high, and how this strengthens Trump’s hand. But when does this divergence catch up to the U.S. markets? Students of history will conclude that, because of globalism and heavy correlations between economies, a major warning sign is brewing.  Just look at 2017. “Every single market around the world rallied in tandem with each other. They all did.” But go up as one… go down as one.  Scott concurs. “I think we’re a trade headline away from the markets selling off. It’s really tenuous.” John says that investors need to be watching the dollar for signs of a deal, and Scott breaks down the motives on each side for the next trade meeting – as well as his biggest fear based off of the events of the last two weeks. “My concern is – is he pressing for too much. Are we going to go too far – and do heels get dug in?”  John games out how the politics of midterms can affect our standing in the trade war – and makes his own prediction on the “Blue Wave” pundits are forecasting. 

The Henssler experts have an in-depth discussion on Bitcoin, and answer listeners’ questions on optical subsystems provider Finisar Corp., and brewers Boston Beer Company and Anheuser Busch InBev.

In this episode, we discuss Finisar opening a facility in Texas as part of Apple's $1 billion Advanced Manufacturing Fund for American manufacturers, John Zissomos leaving Salesforce.com, error handling and null checking, the recent release of Illuminated Cloud 2.0, and finally we reflect on the events of 2017 and discuss our pridictions for 2018. How Apple and Finisar are transforming the future of this Texas town John Zissimos

Así es HEIF, el nuevo formato de imagen en IOS 11. Un nuevo formato que Apple pondré de moda tarde o temprano, un nuevo formato llamado HEIF, ocupa la mitad de peso de nuestra imagen, nos ahorraremos muchísimo espacio de GB en nuestro iPhone, o cualquier dispositivo IOS, en la próxima actualización grande que veremos en setiembre, en la próxima keynote con IOS 11. La cadena de producción de Apple se prepara para el iPhone 8 con 3D: reporte. Broadcom, Lumentum, Finisar y Viavi son proveedoras de sensores 3D y de carga inalámbrica para el iPhone 8, según analistas de Barron's. Hoy ya se conocen algunas anécdotas interesantes de cómo se llevó a cabo el desarrollo del iPhone, y que, tras varios intentos de adaptar el manejo del iPod y su rueda “click wheel” se llevó a adaptando la interfaz de una tableta que Apple estaba por entonces desarrollando (y que sería después el iPad). Sin embargo, si te interesa saber cómo surgió el más icónico de los smartphones actuales, en un reportaje que publica hoy el Wall Street Journal, algunos de los ingenieros y ejecutivos que estuvieron al frente de su creación explican anécdotas muy jugosas de la creación del primer smartphone de Apple. iMazing 2 Dos herramientas que seguro una de ellas te será mas que útil, la primera de la vamos hablar es de iMazing, es una alternativa a iTunes, muchas mas ligera y completa y muchísima mas abierta que la propia iTunes de Apple, tiene una prueba de 7 días que si te gusta puede optar a comprar la versión completa, también tienes para dos ordenadores y el plan familiar obviamente mas cara, cuestion de probarla y decidirse. La segunda es iMazing Mini Es una versión reducida de iMazing pero con potentes herramientas igualmente. iMazing Mini nos permite la gestión de las copias de seguridad por versiones igual que iMazing 2. Se ubica en la barra de menú y de forma inalámbrica podemos tener el control de nuestro dispositivo. Donde también tendremos la opción de hacer copias de seguridad y ver el estado de nuestra batería información del episodio : https://www.applesfera.com/ios/asi-es-heif-el-nuevo-formato-de-imagen-con-el-que-apple-quiere-acabar-con-jpeg https://www.cnet.com/es/noticias/iphone-8-3d-reconocimiento-facial/ https://www.applesfera.com/aplicaciones-os-x-1/imazing-2-e-imazing-mini-asi-es-la-alternativa-a-itunes-para-gestionar-tu-iphone-y-ipad https://okdiario.com/tecnologia/2017/06/26/ex-ejecutivos-apple-revelan-secretos-iphone-54133 https://imazing.com/download https://imazing.com/mini https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/ http://nokiatech.github.io/heif/comparison.html Redes Sociales : @applelianos @Apple_Coding @chinom @voces_nocturnas @Alamustia @ALGASpain @NASeros @mixtega360 @GeekJoze @arubioc @Aldo_Medina @ElCamelloGeek @AlBordeDeLaCama @gabrielcar23 @david_tejedo @bateria2x100 @CDNantucket @EdgarMUFC @Nachobacter @DamaOscura1888 @Guerrero_1987 Podcasts Del Equipo : Podcast Crónicas De Nantucket Podcast MovimientoGeek Podcast Al Borde De La Cama Podcast Voces Nocturnas Podcast NASeros Podcast Apple Coding Podcast Ahora Que Tengo Un Rato Podcast Reflex Podcast Podcast Bateria 2x100 Grupo Oficial Applelianos Telegram : https://t.me/Applelianos Grupo Kiosko Telegram : https://t.me/joinchat/AAAAAEHI2bsskOcg05jCnA Grupo Oficial NASeros Telegram : https://t.me/NASeros Web de carlos carrion ( chinom ) http://www.ahoraquetengounrato.com http://www.ahoraquetengounrato.es Web Oficial NASeros Canal Oficial De Youtube NASeros EN DIRECTO : http://www.applelianos.com/applelianos-radio/ Cuando acabamos cada episodio, están disponibles en nuestro perfil de SoundCloud ( https://soundcloud.com/applelianos ) y a continuación en vuestros gestores de Podcast.

Finisar is touting 50-Gbps technology as a building block toward 100G and above in the data center. Vice President of Marketing Rafik Ward describes for Lightwave Editorial Director Stephen Hardy a 50G demo that leverages components based on silicon photonics. He compares this approach with the high-speed VCSEL technology demonstrated at OFC, and gives a brief update on the company’s efforts in coherent transmission.

Lightwave Editorial Director Stephen Hardy visits with Finisar’s Vice President of Marketing Rafik Ward to discuss the CFP4 transceiver on display at the company’s ECOC stand. Also on the docket are the 25-Gbps VCSEL technology used in the demonstrated CFP4, the demand for CFP2, and what kind of demand has emerged for Finisar’s 4x28G direct-detect metro transceiver.
