You're comparing peak single with all-core TDP/cores. Ryzen 2 cores peak at about 10 Watts per core...they probably have at least 30% frequency increase headroom...plus whatever bump they get when they move to 5 nm. I expect at le

The major difference is that insurance is not supposed to put you in a better position than you were before the loss. (This gets slightly tricky when, for example, you insure an item at its replacement cost, instead of its depreciated cost.

Insurance is not SaaS. The underlying loss related costs (Losses + LAE) will never go below 60% or so. (This includes reinsurance to cover catastrophic risks.) See https://news.ycombinator.com/edit?id=23461599 for their mos

The 72% does not include overhead or sales and marketing, just losses and LAE. I wouldn't call that very good. Their combined ratio is more like 200%

UWB is very low power, with a large number of pulses of very low amplitude typically below the noise level, over a large bandwidth (minimum 500 MHz). It's not just the bandwidth. UWB has a peak power density limit of −41.3 dBm/MHz

Basically in the US companies with 100 or more employees have to give 60 days notice before doing a mass layoff. If they don't give the notice, they can give equivalent severance instead. UK has notice AND consultation requirements. h

60 days severance is mandatory, due to the WARN act. I don't know if "keeping those affected on the company’s health insurance for the rest of the year" means they will pay the full amount, or just the corporate contribution.

That's a 6-bit TN panel, with a decent gamut. Color accuracy will be so-so, most likely. (What's your delta-E?) Viewing angles are not great either. [1] An 8-bit IPS panel with 100% sRGB would likely be superior for most purposes.

If you're doing photo/video editing for web, sRGB is your target anyway. This is a $530 laptop btw. Which 10 year old laptop had 96% Adobe RGB coverage, out of curiosity?
