I'm glad to see that he's not relying on State handouts.
He tried to though:
Branson sold Virgin Galactic shares back in May 2020 to keep the airline operating and in September 2020 the company received $1.6B loan from private-equity firm Davidson Kempner after the UK government refused to provide Virgin Atlantic with emergency support.

This may get the victim of the harassment into trouble, the harasser’s broken nose would be obvious, but the victim being groped wouldn’t be.
It just means that you chuck more data at the workstation or you can do what once took a workstation can now be done on a normal desktop PC. For example visualising drug molecules used to be done on staggeringly expensive SGI workstations by specialists and now our bench chemists can spin molecules to their hearts' content on a normal laptop.
Intrinsic might be an interesting experiment in applied computing science, but I doubt companies will want their expensive equipment "finding out" how to do the one thing they were bought for.
I guess the vendor of the robots might be more interested though
> Be honest; did you actually use FTP in a web browser?
Yes, a lot of scientific datasets are available using FTP, and it was more convenient to look at the directories in a browser than firing up an FTP client. If downloading more than a couple of files then I'd usually find the path in a browser and then automate with LFTP though.
