If this story about the US Army missile stocks being dangerously low is true, it might explain a few things: why Trump often calls off the "mother of all attacks' on Iran (he's bluffing) and the drop in support for the Ukrainian army (on top of Trump's devotion to Putin).
It's the time of the week that I find the hardest: returning to work, even if working from home. I'm working from home three days a week and I like it. My employer doesn't have plans to change that in the foreseeable future. When I go to the office, by bike in the summer, if the weather allows it, it's a pleasure that reminds me when I was a child, and went to the school by bike. Have a great week!

Reactions to the just-announced Apple Upgrade program seem mostly positive. It's a US-only thing, not available here in Canada. It's a surprisingly cheap program for potential subscribers, but someone has to pay for this. I don't know who, yet. A thought keeps popping up in my head: is Apple sending a contradictory message with this? From an environmental protection perspective, Apple Upgrade goes against Apple's environmental efforts: it's an incentive to consume more and faster. There is no other way to think about this. Prove me wrong.
