October 9, 2019 4:01 PM EST Back in high school, I used to play mobile games all the time. I would sit on my bus ride home in the hot Florida sun and play Doodle Jump, Temple Run, Angry Birds, you name it. I remember, however, after months of those games, I got bored. I wanted console-level experiences on the go, something which was eventually realized by the PlayStation Vita and refined by the Nintendo Switch. Boy, have we come a long way since those days. Back then, we had Call of Duty: Zombies for iOS devices. While it was fun and offered some of the best maps from the Zombies franchise, it never really felt like an authentic Call of Duty game. It felt like some third-party rip-off that was trying to capitalize on the Zombies craze. Now, Activision has once again dipped their toes into the mobile space with the appropriately named Call of Duty: Mobile and holy hell have they hit it out of the park. Not only does this feel like it’s worthy of the Call of Duty name, but it feel...

Amazon, Walmart Will Help Save India’s Banks Amazon.com Inc. and Walmart Inc.’s Flipkart Online Services Pvt claimed record sales during the recently concluded six-day online shopping bonanza that marks the start of the Indian festival season. Although nowhere close to Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.’s $31 billion Singles’ Day promotion in China, the Indian version of Black Friday has grown fivefold to $3 billion in four years, according to a review of this year’s sales by RedSeer, a consulting firm. Add the spending between now and Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, and Forrester Research reckons the total for a month of online purchases may fall just shy of $5 billion. Although the 30% growth this year was slower than in the previous three, it’s a strong outcome in a weak economy. Both of India’s leading e-commerce marketplaces cited small towns – and credit – for their success. Flipkart says Tier 3 cities ordered 100% more goods this year. The share of transactions using credit o...

You'll Never Guess Where American Women Actually Earn More Than Men It all comes down to education. Women earn less than men in every U.S. state, but one place they've caught up is Puerto Rico. On average, women working in this American territory earn $1.03 for every dollar earned by men. According to the most recent data from the U.S. census bureau, in 2016, the median salary for women in Puerto Rico was $24,486, while the median salary for men was $23,711. Image source: Getty Images Why women earn more There are two factors at play here. One is that there are more opportunities for men to succeed in jobs that don't require a college degree. The other is that education in Puerto Rico has been relatively low cost. Simply put, more women in Puerto Rico have opted for a college education because they have not historically been able to fill the more physical jobs. Approximately 29% of women in Puerto Rico hold a bachelor's degree, compared to 20% of men. Though the w...
