It depends on the people you fill the buildings with. If the area is still "high crime" then those "light commercial" businesses (stores primarily) won't last long. Especially with the "shoplifting isn't really a crime" policy.
When the people you put into the apartments have pride in their area and work to keep it up then there is a greater chance of success. If you just stuff the apartments without a plan then you'll get the drug dealers mixed in, drug users who will steal to get their next fix, and people who don't care and are happy to take advantage of the system. And that will just be moving the problem.
As does making sub sandwiches (subway/jimmy johns). Of course it comes down to how to keep the machines sanitary and make them fast enough. Though that is also easily solvable - just don't let humans near the prep area.
As everybody above said "been there, done that."
A company tried that with some pcie cards a former company I worked for made. And a demo of one of our helium filled drives immersed in liquid is still running in one of the labs.
While I agree that is is "implied" I've found that lawyers have a way of twisting words that us common folk think are obvious. So I'd like to see to expressly declared.
I hope they carved out an exception for keeping airtags/gpstrackers/etc in my suitcase/backpack/cars/trailers/bikes/possessions so that when they get stolen I can track them down. Especially since most of the items I listed are low/no priority for the police to try and find unless you can tell them EXACTLY where they are.

If you're still connected to the Matrix you need to do a final sync before umount/shutdown. The 2 that didn't show activity probably weren't connected anymore.
When will this be part of the iPhone imaging hardware?
Rebranded Clippy.
If it is well integrated into Teams can I send it to meetings I'm supposed to attend? Should be easy as long as it is good at snark.
When a firm like KPMG is hired they are usually given a very specific set of constraints. It isn't like a government audit where there is a subpoena and the government auditors can look at anything and everything. I'm sure SVG was very specific in what they asked KPMG to do and what documents KPMG was allowed to work from. Sad but that's the way firms do things.
I'm guessing upper management isn't flying in coach.

SpaceX/Starlink/Elon understood that just making the satellites wouldn't be enough. With SpaceX they have the launch capacity to hang those satellites -- not being reliant on other companies. And SpaceX has reduced the launch cost dramatically - benefiting from the constant need to launch more Starlink satellites.
Why? Because of the requirements people demand. Must be as thin as possible, as strong as possible so you can sit on it, be thermally modeled to minimize overheating, and a number of other things. Once the designer starts having to account for doors that can be removed and never replaced they can't rely on the back as a strength point. To overcome that you need to beef up the internal structure which makes the design thicker. And you, the consumer, whine about it being thicker than a different phone and talk about "how terrible the engineers are". Uh huh.
