Waze Quotes

Instead of growing stomach cancer, let us consult our life trip advisor, follow our mental Waze directions in the cracklings of our expectations, avoid annoying congestion, and listen to the soothing rhythm of Deep Breathing. (“Un Brin de causette, svp – Please, just a bit of a chat,”)

When everybody uses the same oracle, and everybody believes the oracle, the oracle turns into a sovereign. So Waze must think for us.

Kitabu cha 'Kolonia Santita' ni kitabu cha wasomi na wasiokuwa wasomi, watu wa mijini na watu wa vijijini, watu wazima, vijana na watoto. Hadhira ya kitabu hiki ni jamii nzima ya Tanzania.

Jerry Michalski notes that in the past, scarcity meant value. That is, without scarcity, you didn’t have a business. Now that notion has been upended. Dave Blakely of IDEO thinks about ExOs in the following way: “These new organizations are exponential because they took something scarce and made it abundant.” Nokia bought Navteq, trying to buy, own and control scarcity, only to be leapfrogged by Waze, which managed to harness abundance.

Red everywhere on Waze, as if the city were bleeding.

The inherent bias of Silicon Valley firms extends far beyond social media. Google Maps, Apple Maps, and Waze are all ubiquitous mapping application services, and yet they only contain a minimal amount of data about the Palestinian landscape. While Israeli settlements are mostly recognized and noted on the maps, hundreds of Palestinian villages simply do not exist on them. When asked about this gap, the companies claim that this is an issue of United Nations rules because Palestine is only a “non-member observer state” and therefore they can’t take a position on the correct way to tackle the issue. It’s an absurd argument because settlements in the West Bank on the app maps aren’t labeled as “disputed,” but simply shown as established facts.

What we drinking to?” Waze asked, holding the bottle out. “How about to real love with no bullshit?

But she also just thinks it’s fun. She likes maps. She likes knowing where things are. She likes using Waze and pointing out things on the street, like the most impressive mansions.

When we adopt the perspective of the new growth theorists and match it against what we see with Waze, Innocentive, Kaggle, Quirky, Affinnova, and many others, we become optimistic about the current and future of innovation.

*Wazee wanasema: "kuku hasubiri onyo toka kwa mwewe ili kuficha vifaranga wake." Mwewe atakayetoa onyo kwa kuku, si mwewe tena. Huyo atakuwa njiwa. Atakayekupatia onyo ni yule tu anayekujali na kukuthamini. Tangu lini mamba akamwonya swala anayetaka kunywa maji mtoni? Ni kwa sababu kiu ya swala ni furaha ya mamba. Yule anayeona mateso yako kuwa sinema kwake, atafurahia zaidi utakaponaswa na mtego. Usimchukie akupaye onyo. Mwombee aishi maisha marefu kwani watu kama hawa maishani ni wachache. Usikubali uwe sinema ya watu.

*Wazee wanasema, "Usijaribu kupaa kabla ya mabawa yako kuota." Ni hatari hata kwa kifaranga au ndege anayejitutumua na kuanza kuruka kabla ya mabawa na manyoya yake kuota vizuri. Kifaranga kinapaswa kiwe na subira; kikijitutumua na kuruka, huenda kikajiumiza au kuzama na kufa majini. Kila jambo na wakati wake. Tusitamani utajiri, cheo, au mamlaka kwa haraka haraka bila hata ya kupata uzoefu. Mungu aliweka matawi ya chini kwa ajili ya wale wasioweza kuruka vizuri ili hata wakianguka, wasipate kuumia sana. Na hata baada ya kufanikiwa kuruka, tambua kwamba hata ukifanikiwa kuruka juu kiasi gani, lazima utarudi chini tu kwa ajili ya kutafuta chakula.* mkia ukikatika ng'ombe hawezi kuazima kufukuzia nzi, linda heshima yako ukiipoteza hutaweza kuazima heshima ya mtu mwingine kujiheshimisha. Mchana mwema.

Waze’s triumph and Navteq’s decline should be the model for every budding ExO. Ask yourself, “Which of my products or services can I digitize and dematerialize?” and “How can I use the Six Ds to leapfrog my biggest linear competitors? How can I use them to demonetize and democratize my products and/or services?

*Wazee wanasema, "ni raha kusema uongo, ila kujenga tena madhara yalio sababishwa na uongo huo ni gharama sana". Unapoamua kusema uongo tambua kuna madhara makubwa unayosababisha! Tumia ulimi vizuri kujenga na kutoa baraka.*©️Pd. PK, Ukiambiwa uchague, tatizo linalokufanya umkumbuke Mungu, au raha inayokufanya umsahau Mungu. Utachagua nini? Andaa chakula kwa wageni hata kama wanajifanya hawana njaMkono uliouchi usitakiane amani na moto.usanya sungura mia moja anataka kutengeneza Tembo

*Wazee wanasema "huwezi kupigana na ugonjwa mkali kwakunywa dawa tamu". Kuachana na baadhi ya vilema vyako kuna kazi. Kuna kujinyima na kujipa adabu inayoenda tofauti na matamanio yako. Kuacha ulevi sio jambo lakumezea dawa tamu, unahitaji mwarubaini wakuachana na mazingira na marafiki wanao kuvuta, kuna sadaka na nguvu kubwa. Kuachana na umbea..kunahitaji dawa kali ya kufunga mdomo tena gundi yakufunga mdomo bei ghali kweli, hivi ni sh. ngapi?.* ©️Pd. PK,Tafadhali Umande naomba sana uwe na adabu huwezi kushindana na jua. Sehemu ya kwanza ya kuheshimu ni jikoni wewe ulidhani wapi?

Tujikumbushe *Wazee wanasema ni vizuri tucheke kidogo. Ng'ombe akiwa na birthday naomba kondoo wote mlete maua. Simba akikukimbiza ukikutana na pundamlia(zebra) ukirukia mgongoni simba atasimama kama gari?Kama hujawahi kuonja ladha ya sabuni muoshe mbwa. Najiwazia tuu hapa hata sina point, ukimpa fundi cherehani ashone dera la nyangumi!! Hivi kati ya hawa nani anachukia mwanga? Mwizi, kahaba na popo? Ee Mungu naomba unipe bunduki lakini nisiitumie*Wewe endelea kujifanya serious udhani kuna mtu atakusifia una hekima! Cheka ndugu yangu

The message for public officials and politicians is clear. If you don’t change the relationship between the citizen and the state to fit with the internet age soon, someone else will take over that relationship, and in ways which are not always predictable. In Los Angeles, around 30% of drivers use Waze, a smartphone app that allows road users to share real-time traffic and road information. It provides information on things like traffic accidents or police traps. Because it has become so popular, Waze has now effectively become part of the city’s transport infrastructure, with the city administration working directly with the company to alert drivers about potential delays. Perhaps that doesn’t sound especially radical – just a good example of public–private data sharing. But Waze is now much more than a transport app. Having become a part of many people’s daily lives, the app has unexpectedly morphed into a broader

For example, Twist is “call-ahead” software that sees where you are and knows where you are heading, as well as knowing the driving conditions en route. It sends a text message to your next appointment while you keep your hands and your mind on the road. Glympse, as we mentioned, is similar and lets you share your location with others—who just might rat you out when you speed. GasBuddy.com lets you find the cheapest gas near your location. Nooly Micro Weather reports uber-localized weather, within .4 miles of where you are and just 15 minutes into the future, preparing you for the fog bank around the next curve on a mountain road. As we write this, it is available as a phone app and the developer is working with Ford and Toyota for the app to be included in cars as they ship. The integrated, automotive Nooly will signal the car to turn on fog lights or the defroster a moment before the weather changes. Waze is a mobile app that lets drivers share updates on road conditions in near realtime. With a community of nearly 50 million members as of May 2013, it is perhaps the most robust source of user-generated road data in the world. Google acquired Waze in the summer of 2013 for just under $1 billion.
