    You being alive right now is very likely a cost that the collective we could have decided to do without. Clean water, the suppression of diseases that'd wipe out entire populaces..…

    You might be interested in checking out the WHO SMART Guidelines. Nothing on cancer yet AFAIK, but it's evolving.

    Had a CEO who extolled how much better open plans were, how vibrant it made the workplace, and so on and so on... Years later she admitted it was just to save money. I refuse to ca…

    We haven't used Chromebooks, sorry. For scanners a number of cheap to pricey ones were tried. On the cheap end I don't have the exact model number but I think it was about $30USD f…

    I think the key question here is: are you using GS1 identifiers? If not, I don't think it'd make much sense to throw a non-GS1 identifier in there and expect anyone else to be able…

    I'm not familiar with that scanner, however that sounds like a scanner issue. I haven't had that issue with GS-128 with the couple scanners I & colleagues have tried. I did a googl…

    PicoAPRS, Moblinkd, likely some others I believe will Bluetooth pair to your phone. As will the icom 705 with wifi I think. I’ve sent messages just fine with the built in pad on a …

    I like it. I’ve also found success as framing it as building tech capability. Focusing people on adding capability or wealth, positive connotations, I think is the way to go.

    Trash. Quite unfortunately some of the most shallow thinking I've seen.

    It took me a bit to see the hiding in plain sight trajectory of "Met in a bar or restaurant". Everything but it and of course the dominate Met Online, are decreasing. Curious.
