If I install something (tile?) on my android, will it help people find their airtags (and tiles)?

I'm happy to run it for fun but don't know what to run.

I suggest you try to pretend to build a house, condo or office building to see what happens.

Just go through the motions, talk to builders and try to get permits.

Then you will understand.

It's not like Scotland was exactly the home of efficiency and productivity to begin with... But good for them! I look forward to visiting and taking a dram on the occasional day when they're open.

If you read a biography of Ford you'll find this story just isn't really true. He couldn't find workers and had to raise the wages, and in doing got a lot of PR by spinning it as being good for workers to buy cars.

Alibaba isn't doing this voluntarily... They disappeared Jack Ma for re-education and he came back with wonderful ideas about donating all profits to the CCP.

Reminds me of the Pratchett / Discworld song "wouldn't it be nice, if everyone was nice?":

https://www.lspace.org/fandom/songs/wouldnt-it-be-nice-if-ev...

(sung to the tune of "It's a Small World")

If we all were friendly

I'm sure you would agree

That the world would be a better place

For you and for me

And if everyone was kind

I'm sure no-one would mind

So let's all be nice

Chorus:

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone was nice?

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone was nice?

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone was nice?

Let's all be nice.

Being good to people

Is lots of fun

And it makes a difference

To everyone

And a smile is a frown

When it's turned upside down

So let's all be nice.

Repeat chorus ad nauseam.

Maybe it's the expandable back door reporting mechanism that Apple wants to put in there?

> My rudimentary understanding is that the brain needs glucose to work properly. Especially for intellectual work.

No.

In deep ketosis there's gluconeogenisis where the small amount you need will be made for you.

In fact, people on keto or fasting actually report vastly better mental clarity.
