COVID-19 pandemic

In Q1 of 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, Raspberry Pi computers saw a large increase in demand primarily due to the increase in working from home, but also because of the use of many Raspberry Pi Zeros in ventilators for COVID-19 patients in countries such as Colombia, which were used to combat strain on the healthcare system. In March 2020, Raspberry Pi sales reached 640,000 units, the second-largest month of sales in the company's history.

Cryptocurrencies and Blockchains

With the increasing adoption of blockchain technology, the role of an accountant will change but not be eliminated. Think of mechanics. You still need the mechanic, but the mechanic will have new things to learn. The new technology will let accountants spend their time on the highest leveraged activities. Consider the role before Excel. People thought Excel would do our work for us, but it didn’t. But it is a better spreadsheet and made the job easier. Technology is changing at an exponential rate. Ignorance and apathy will put the slower movers at a disadvantage. It is expensive and it is complex, but if you don’t experiment with it, you will be in danger of falling behind.

The fundamental Wiio's law states that "Communication usually fails, except by accident". The full set of laws is as follows: 1. Communication usually fails, except by accident. 1. If communication can fail, it will. 2. If communication cannot fail, it still most usually fails. 3. If communication seems to succeed in the intended way, there's a misunderstanding. 4. If you are content with your message, communication certainly fails. 2. If a message can be interpreted in several ways, it will be interpreted in a manner that maximises the damage. 3. There is always someone who knows better than you what you meant with your message. 4. The more we communicate, the worse communication succeeds. 1. The more we communicate, the faster misunderstandings propagate. 5. In mass communication, the important thing is not how things are but how they seem to be. 6. The importance of a news item is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. 7. The more impor...

communication

There is much #talk nowadays of the communication industry and are communication experts, consultants and engineers. However, it would be #misleading to believe that communication is the province of a small group of people highly #qualified and highly #trained in a specific discipline. Whether we like it or not, we are all part of communities, of some sort or other and are thus necessarily #involved in communication. When we communicate with someone, we are trying to establish a co-union by sharing an idea, an attitude, a mood, a feeling, or #informating. We can communicate in many ways: by writing a letter by ringing a doorbell by making a telephone call and by #pulling a face. Any communication process is essentially composed of three elements -a #source, a #signal and a #destination. The #source may be an individual person speaking, writing, gesturing or an organisation such as a newspaper or a radio or television #station. The #signal may consist of ink on paper, soundwaves, ...
