Probably nothing
ALT By measuring the number of words of iOS releases we see 16.4 is dramatically more comprehensive. Apple has decided to seriously invest in Safari.
André Rømcke.kr 🇳🇴🇺🇦 retweeted
As predicted, the primary impact of other browser engines being on the horizon of coming to iOS is that Apple would invest into Safari more. This release is maybe the most clear evidence of this happening.
About a year ago Apple started hiring for the previously systematically understaffed WebKit team–and engineers are gonna ship.
Overall, this is an amazing outcome for the web. Apple's strategy so far was to invest the minimum necessary to make WebKit be very good at rendering legacy websites so that their users are happy, but also avoiding more powerful APIs that would allow the web to compete with their app ecosystem. Given competition being on the horizon they clearly needed to adjust strategy, and we're starting to see the results of that shift.

A great framework for change management by Dr. Mary Lippitt.
ALT The Managing Complex Change model was created by Dr. Mary Lippitt (1987). It covers vision, skills, incentives, resources and an action plan.

Blockchain, applied in the real world with a case study:
To handle the ‘staggering’ amount of data of 500K loads per year (~1,500/day), Walmart Canada contracted an innovative blockchain solution using a private cloud, running 600 VMs to handle thousands of transactions per day.

I've now been asked multiple times for my take on Elon's offer for Twitter.
So fine, this is what I think about that. I will assume the takeover succeeds, and he takes Twitter private. (I have little knowledge/insight into how actual takeover battles work or play out)

By age 2, my kid didn't speak, cried a lot, couldn't fall asleep without being held for an hour, eating was problem, in fact everything was a problem. Doctors said he'd never speak and would need special care forever. 1/

To effectively protect 🇺🇦, the optimal solution would be Patriot systems from the 🇺🇲 or the cheaper, more mobile NASAMS systems from 🇳🇴. In addition, 🇺🇦 could also use more Soviet-era S-300 and BUK-M1 systems, which are also currently effective against the enemy.

Four things we should push for:
1. More weapons to Ukraine
2. No fly zone over Ukraine, by NATO or donated NATO planes
3. Total embargo on Russian oil and gas
4. Cut all remaining Russian banks from SWIFT
Retweet if you agree!

4. Boycott Rus goods
5. Stop collaboration w/Russians who did not denounce the war
6. Use any influence you have to #StopPutin

I don't have the followers to get this very wide, but I'm telling it anyway. This Ukraine invasion brings back memories of Crimea in 2014.
In 2014, I was working at a company that had remote employees all over the world, including most of our QA department in Ukraine 1/
