Companies have two sets of customers: (1) The people paying for their products and services (2) The people they pay to produce their products and services. The Job market is easier to navigate for employers than the market of paying customers in the product/service of their choice. Its possible the executives are tired of having to constantly improve over long periods of time.

Both Ukraine and Russian Govts are committing crimes against humanity. Don't pretend there is a good guy in the fight. Pray for and do what you can for the citizens against the war.

Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is an Authoritarian, saying she can act as if she has a right to restrict Gun Rights as a measure to "protect the children" while in the same CNN interview professing a belief in "Reproductive Rights" "Reproductive Rights" tend to be a euphemism for Abortion, and Abortions are Murders of unborn Human Children. Restricting Gun Rights will result in more, not less, innocent children being murdered. Abortion is not Healthcare and results in, again, more innocent children being murdered. Right to defend oneself = Negative Right Right to Abortion = Positive Right Get your ducks in order, Governor. These are not the same. Nobody has a right to another person's property, including their life and services. To say the murdering of human life in the womb is morally just, compared to the right to own and bear a firearm, is just plain wrong. Authoritarians are gonna try and grab power wherever its convenient. All Children's Lives Matter, not just the ones that get cherry picked for a political agenda. https://mises.org/wire/no-governor-rights-are-not-government-issued-privileges-you-can-suspend

Curious to know what happens to communication networks when Nuclear Energy Technology makes Energy cost almost nothing. Can imagine a day where all homes have a miniaturized nuclear fusion unit to support a decentralized Energy Grid.
