Lawmakers urged to block TSMC worker visas over Arizona plant construction
Most people have no idea what a severe shortage of skilled AND unskilled workers exists in the USA and why immigration benefits everyone. The racist, anti-immigration sentiment that extends even to PhD level H1-B workers is frankly idiotic , and not born out by the facts, which show bringing in highly educated and motivated people to work here benefits everyone. The higher education system here does not produce enough STEM graduates for industry, so "taking jobs from Americans" is a lie. -

Two women saved in Canada thanks to Apple's Emergency SOS via Satellite

Back in April, Emergency SOS also saved a snowboarder in Switzerland. On a solo trip at about 10,000 feet altitude, Tim Blakey fell into a hidden crevasse in the snow.
Despite an iPhone battery life of 3%, he could use Emergency SOS to contact emergency services. Rescuers found him and took him to the hospital for an injured ankle. -
Goldman Sachs lost $1.2 billion in 2022 mostly because of Apple Card
Sounds like BS to me. How can you lose that much money on a credit card business unless a vast number of customers default on payments or there is massive fraud. The fraud aspect is unlikely as the Apple Card is an order of magnitude safer than most other credit cards. The "defaulting" on payments also seems unlikely since iPhone owners and Apple Card users in particular seem to be from a demographic that generally pays off their CC balances or would be very negatively affected by not paying off their CC.
