In business news, Warby Parker co-founder Dave Gilbo attributes his company's success,
valued at $1,800,000,000 to a simple principle, being nice guys.
The inspiration struck during a backpacking trip in northern Thailand, where he lost his
glasses.
Upon returning to Wharton Business School in 2008, Gilbo discovered replacing them would
cost $700, far more than the $200 iPhone.

And now back to the show.
Let's talk tech.
The era of touch screens may be winding down as companies rediscover the appeal of physical
controls.
After nearly two decades of pushing touchable displays, product designers are reintroducing
buttons, knobs, hand sliders, in vehicles, appliances, and personal electronics.
In the automotive industry, manufacturers like Kaya, BMW, and Volkswagen are moving
away from Tesla's touch screen-centric designs, favoring tactile controls instead.
This trend is not limited to cars.
It extends to e-readers and induction stoves.
Notably, Apple has embraced this movement, adding an action button to its new iPhone
16 models, signaling a shift back to user-friendly designs.
Entertainment news.

The film relies on a somewhat flimsy premise, pushing these two cool characters into a buddy
comedy dynamic.
Wolfs premiered in theaters last week before launching on Apple TV+, promising an entertaining,
if unconventional, double act from these Hollywood icons.
