They have a huge berm at the bottom in most photos of how it's built. If they straight lined it down, that is probably a 3-4 story tall drop off the end to the flat by the lodge.

Releasing a formerly captive orca that subsequently didn’t do well in the wild isn’t unprecedented. Keiko (Willy) lasted just a year on his own and was unable to socialize with any of his own kind.
My comment is a throwaway joke given how quickly Sea World was on the scene but a killer whale dying this far from their usual turf hasn’t been recorded either. I don’t know if anyone else has released an orca lately given Keiko’s fate but they’re usually social animals so you’d expect sightings of her pod.

Probably read the currents wrong.

Sea World trying to do some secret dumping?

$6M in A100 GPUs plus all the hardware necessary to run them. Seems totally manageable.

It's crypto. Try to liquidate into cash and the value falls to zero.

Unless you’re a pallet of fresh flowers, I don’t think you’d be super comfortable in it.

They reached a good enough point of 18 hours and spent any other gains in cutting costs. Same with their phones.
I get the expectation that people are always near chargers and I always carry a charger. That said, my 6 would be deep into reserve power before I get back to a charger probably once a week especially if I did any exercise in the day. It'd never last to the morning if I ever wore it without a solid charge.
Perhaps I am just too much of a power user or I don't sleep enough but the margin of error on the base watches doesn't seem sufficient for medical use.

If it works, it's a dirt cheap solution. Not criticizing the innovation. The commentary is on Apple's lack of focus on increasing battery life on these. I've gone to the Ultra as my 4th iteration but I could routinely run my last gen to reserve power in the course of a day and anything but near religious charging discipline means a dead watch.
Few things are more frustrating than having a watch crap out mid-day because you forgot to charge. Other brands have watches that last longer and have the same sensors so I don't exactly see where this is an Apple unique feature. It's just a bit of PR fluff unless there's a patent on it here. I say this as a very long time AAPL shareholder.

So you just have to get a second watch to monitor you at night while you're primary is charging.

They’ll probably discover ads elsewhere are just as effective.

The driver doesn’t even have his 4Runner anymore. Not gonna get a whole lot from him. Apple has over $50B cash on hand. Lawyers look for the deepest pockets.
