Not an expert but what I’ve heard is that AI-based radiology analysis has brought down prices so much that there’s been a huge increase in demand, which has led to employee shortages.

You seem to mistake an ideal for reality and forgo a few difficult eventualities: eg. tyranny of the majority, corruption, regulatory capture, etc.

Past canaries of Apple's software downfall: Scripting and the new Notification Center.

The key thing to make macOS feel welcoming to everybody from noobs to the nerdiest of power users: Pretty much all functionality used to be accessible using an easy GUI, and keyboard shortcuts, and scripting and command line interface.

At some point Apple Script support started to thin out. I started to worry a bit at this point. Apps that power users care about rely on scripting support. I felt that advanced users have fallen outside the target audience of the product.

Then the new Notification Center came out. And suddenly there was no way of reacting to individual notifications from the keyboard. Two interfaces were no out! No keyboard shortcuts. No scriptability. You HAVE to use the mouse!

Core functionality was suddenly inaccessible using the PRIMARY input device!

How is it possible that the accessibility of such major OS functionality is this poor!

At this point I felt that it's not about target audiences, but about indifference. They don't much care.

Someone once said that monopolies are often never toppled - instead they just become irrelevant over time. This is what happened to Windows. The OS monopoly still exists, but it's no longer the center of anyone's attention.

The same seems to have happened to MacOS. It's as if it has become unimportant inside Apple.

Yes, all of us born in the 80s or earlier …

Having two different RFCs on this is clearly causing confusion!

I think I'll create a new RFC to supersede both to clear up the situation.

Discounted Cashflows calculation for Nvidia would require 10x growth and a 55% profit margin for 10 years to justify the current valuation.

If the company achieves a 4-5X growth (15% per year) and 30% margins (instead of 55%) that would place the share price at $176 - 1/4th of what it is today.

The law is the will of ”we”. ”They” can’t change the law – only ”we” can.

Better than what?

I REALLY wouldn't want to be the person tasked with starting that fire.

This was one nefarious operation by the hacker:

- He hacked the patient files of a psychotherapy center Vastaamo. This included therapy notes for more than 22.000 patients.

- First the hacker blackmailed the therapy center.

- Next he started blackmailing individual patients.

- Finally he released the files online revealing very private information on thousands of patients.

I can only imagine the horror felt by the people whose therapy notes were made public.

Memorable, for the last year two years I've been working on identifying structural causes of procrastination caused by working from home and working on a digital device.

While I'm sure there are personality factors that are affecting your productivity, there are a number of factor in play that are beyond your control.

I've worked closely with a number of CEO's and thesis writers helping them out of the slump.

I'f you DM me, I'd love to have a call with you to give a number of pointers how to get more productive immediately and also to help you find professional help to ease the possible underlying factors that tend to cause procrastination.

In Finland wind power provides roughly 30% of the nominal power on average. The problem is that it fluctuates between 0-80%.

The National Emergency Supply Agency calculates 6% of the nominal power capacity as the guaranteed capacity of wind. Unfortunately even that is overly optimistic.

During days when temperatures hover close zero, wind farms are shut down due to the danger from ice debris. This has caused zero production days of wind power in Finland during the last month.

Our electricity prices have been 30x the normal.

List of causes includes: importing electricity from Russia has been halted, unreliability of wind power, delays in building new nuclear power, premature shutting down of certain carbon based energy production, increased exports to Estonia and Germany due to Nordstream/Russia/Ukraine, increased exports to Sweden due to maintenance of a nuclear plant there. )

There are burnmarks high up on the pillars of the train bridge but not on the lower parts. This would suggest that the explosion happened on top of the bridge.
