Labour’s Sir Keir Starmer delivered a storming victory speech Friday morning after the party swept the UK general election, declaring the country “gets its future back after 14 years (of a Conservative Party government)”. A relieved-looking Prime Minister-elect said, with a grin and to loud cheers, “We did it. You campaigned for it, fought for it, voted for it, and now it has arrived.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s indefatigable work ethic has helped turn the chip giant into one of the most valuable companies in the world. So it’s perhaps no surprise that Huang’s client and fellow billionaire, Elon Musk, is a fan of his management style. “Absolutely the right attitude,” Musk said in an X post on Sunday. “During the toilet paper shortages of Covid, I was making sure that our factories and offices had toilet paper.” Musk was responding to a clip of an interview Huang gave in March to Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, where he talked about his experience working…
Apple has started expanding the Vision Pro’s reach, with several Asian countries receiving the spatial computer last week. A few European markets are about to get the same treatment, marking the Vision Pro’s big push beyond the US. But the spatial computer is far from becoming a best-selling device. The $3,500 starting price is the most obvious roadblock for Apple. Then there’s the company’s inability to produce millions of units like it can with iPhones and other devices.
