Reliability Thinking Killed The Sony WalkmanJustin Zupnick
The document discusses the rise and fall of the Sony Walkman. It describes how the Walkman was originally developed in the 1970s based on the idea of portable music and was hugely successful, exceeding sales targets. However, over time Sony's management became more risk-averse and focused on increasing models rather than innovation. Departmental divisions hindered collaboration and the user experience suffered. This contributed to Sony's declining performance and share price losses since the 2000s. The document argues Sony needs to refocus on new products, encourage internal startups, break down divisions and improve collaboration and the user experience to recapture its innovative spirit.

This document summarizes a presentation on how research can best inform the transition to a green economy. It discusses key concepts like the green economy, sustainable development, and decoupling economic growth from environmental impacts. It also summarizes several EU research projects that provide evidence on issues like climate change impacts on water resources, the effects of carbon taxes, and indicators for assessing progress on sustainability. The presentation argues for continued investment in research to build the evidence base for green economy policies and active science-policy cooperation to support the transition.
The poem describes heaven as being 12 billion kilometers from Earth and resembling the architecture of 300 AD Rome with its arches and domes. It states that if one does good deeds in life, their miniature body will travel to heaven which contains gardens, orchards and trees. However, if one sins on Earth, the possessions they accumulated will be meaningless. The poem also notes that sinners in heaven are sometimes stung by bees and ones fate in heaven or hell can oscillate like attending the university Yale, with good grades for good deeds but consequences for vices. It concludes by encouraging donations to the poor, and taking care of children and wives.
