Scady in mid 40s and trying to find how to survive in the 100 year life.

Day 1,749: eschew, ruse

This eschews the conventional path of a big consumer stimulus to reflate the economy (that’s the kind of ruse the decadent West resorts to).

    • Day 1,748: attest

      Relations with America are steadier, as a phone call between Mr Xi and President Joe Biden this week attested.

      • Day 1,747: dour, lurk

        Compared with 12 months ago, let alone the go-go years, the mood in China is dour. Although industrial production perked up in March, consumers are depressed, deflation lurks and many entrepreneurs are disillusioned.

        • Day 1,746: obstetrics

          Poorer countries, with less developed health infrastructure, have much to gain from introducing new tools, such as an ai-powered portable ultrasound device for obstetrics.

          Yet as our Technology Quarterly this week shows, although ai has been used in health care for many years, integration has been slow and the results have often been mediocre.

          Day 1,741: hyperbole

          Artificial intelligence (ai) is generating excitement and hyperbole everywhere, but in the field of health care it has the potential to be transformational.

          If Mr Hart has his way, and if the ftc prevails in court against Kroger and Albertsons, in five years Aldi Süd will have more shops in America than any retailer save Walmart (which today boasts 4,700).

          Mr Hart has pulled it off by focusing on bare but astutely managed essentials. Aldis offer far fewer choices than rival outlets: 1,600 products, on average, compared with 31,000 for a typical American supermarket and 4,000 for the already s

          Aldi’s rock-bottom prices appeal to Americans irked by food inflation. President Joe Biden rails against punier Snickers bars and fewer crisps per packet in his re-election campaign.

          Day 1,736: seismologist, pipe dream

          Leading seismologists put the probability of a 7.0-magnitude earthquake striking the region before 2030 at over 60%. Past experience suggests this is a pipe dream.

          This 1.4-point rise in projected inflation towers over the 0.1-point rise in interest rates, which in real terms have therefore fallen, not risen. Moreover, the bank made clear in its statement on March 19th that it expected to maintain “ac
