Yes.  Target and then Walmart will have to follow.

There is a fatal flaw in these 'portable' health records:  The assumption that they are accurate.

As a healthcare professional on the inside, and as a caregiver and patient on the outside, I can assure you that they are anything but accurate. 

Physicians record things for multiple purposes -- but most often to justify diagnostic tests and treatments to insurance companies in order to get reimbursement.   So, because your record has a diagnosis of some condition does not mean that you actually have or have ever had that condition.

An example is:  A couple months ago I visited a new PCP -- but spent the bulk of the appointment debunking various historical diagnosis (such as a heart arrhythmia) he was seeing in my electronic records. 

Another example was as a nurse treating a patient with a diagnosis of schizophrenia when he actually had zero symptoms of that condition -- but instead had a clear case of CTE.  But since insurance didn't recognize CTE, he was diagnosed with something that they could recognize and pay for.

I could provide many, many more examples.

I make a practice of keeping written records of all of my diagnostic tests and treatments -- and provide them to new physicians as necessary.   They are far, far more accurate than my electronic medical record.

And, it is not just an academic problem:   misdiagnosis is a leading cause of incorrect and improper treatments -- which can be harmful and even deadly.

You do not understand how Apple’s system work. 

Hmmm, Milpitas is about 16 miles away from Cupertino.

This site could be retrofitted to develop, build and store test cars and to service the Apple shuttles.
Apple will not ship the Volkswagen shuttles back to Europe once the land in Cupertino.
The site looks unfinished.
Time will tell.

The difference is indeed negligible.

I stay stick with Intel as Intel can improve performance over time and even beat Qualcomm.
I hope other phone manufacturers switch to Intel as well.

In a bid to beat Google

Let's be honest, that will never happen in the Maps arena.

Wanna bet? The Apple Maps core architecture and UI are already better than Google. Apple is now collecting its own Maps data and will remove dependencies on third parties. For what I use maps for, Apple maps is already better than Google maps.
