Apple management at that store did make a bad decision — allowing employees to wear pro— political jewelry. Granting permission makes it tough to rescind it.

Make political statements off the clock. Not on it. Did Apple give Espinoza the opportunity to conform to a required dress code? IDK. If offered the opportunity, did Espinoza comply or refuse? IDK. She asked permission and it was granted on two instances, according to the story.

I would think store management would consider that fact before terminating someone's employment. Did they? Again the article doesn't say. If Apple said they changed their mind, and show up for work tomorrow, politically unadorned, then that's what employees would need to do. I'd want to know more before vilifying Apple or giving them a pass.

Poorly written article at best.. “the "holy grails" of non-invasive blood pressure”.  Since when has blood pressure measurement been invasive?!  Maybe the author should look for a new physician.

It's invasive as in having to prick your finger to get blood to take a real reading.  Non-Invasive is not having to do that.  There are a few patches you can get these days, but it is still invasive, but you leave the needle in guess, and safe for a number of days?   I'm not an expert in this area.  Even that would be invasive.  

Cleary. What ralphie said.

So far the AirPods 1 and 2 fit my ears perfectly for being out and about. The AP 3 fit ok if I don't move my head, yawn, eat or drink. They're a step back in fit for me but they do sound better than the 2.

The Pro don't work at all for me. So I'm not particularly hopeful that a new design with an improved fit will actually have an improved fit. But I'll give them a try if they are released.

This lawsuit was due to Cook allegedly lying about the sale slowdown in China to investors.

There is no proof he lied, only supposition that detractors chose to see as fact, when it wasn't proven.

That it wasn't proven doesn't mean he didn't lie.
That it wasn't proven doesn't mean he did lie.
That Apple settled doesn't mean he did lie.

We'll never know if he did or didn't so we can pick a side and call it victory or cash grab, and move on.

What I got from the article, is that a nurse with zero or little experience with the HoloLens 2, would not be able to work in the surgical theater, but the same nurse would be able to use the VP version of the app and would be considered proficient to work in the surgical theater. 

It appears as if the UI of the VP is the reason for this.

What I got from the article is that a scrub nurse with little experience with any particular doctor could use the Holo Lens 2 to compensate for that making working in theatre "fun and enjoyable".

The same nurse found using the AVP a "game changer" somehow, doing the same job. I don't see anything that implies or states that someone needs experience with the HL2 to use it and they don't with the AVP.

The article merely states that she was already familiar with the HL2 and not that she went into theatre immediately after unboxing the AVP. It may be the UI, the hardware, or both. More details would be better.

As with some of you, I'd like to know exactly what goggles of any brand bring to the table. Anything that makes an operation go more smoothly is a good thing for people on both ends of the scalpel.
