Apple loses $40 billion an hour
Earnings for Apple and Twitter are in and we talk to Nathan Oliveres-Giles about the first decline in quarterly revenue for the company since 2003. Meanwhile, Twitter struggles to define itself, even as it gains users. YouTube tests a new ad format, DropBox launches a new version of its cloud service, and Google, Ford, Volvo, Uber, and Lyft have put aside their differences to form a coalition to work with lawmakers and civic organizations to push self-driving cars onto the road. Afterward, we interview Michael Sippy about his new app Talkshow that lets you text your friends in public.
