Despite the 4,711 potential development properties in JobsOhio portfolio, Gov. Mike DeWine proposes the creation of an All Ohio Future Fund. The governor’s budget proposes $2.5 billion to make sure there are shovel-ready sites within easy commuting distance of all Ohioans. That means property prepared for economic development with roads, water, gas, electricity, and broadband connections. “Since the Intel announcement Ohioans outside central Ohio have been asking how about us,” Mr. DeWine said during his State of the State address Tuesday. Read more Blade editorials Mr. DeWine says the disparity of results between metro-Columbus and the rest of Ohio is driven by the availability of primed and ready land. The governor says the All Ohio Future Fund will change that and pay dividends through economic growth for many years to come. While the evidence suggests there is no shortage of available development sites in Ohio, there are many reasons to support the AOFF which the governor did not mention. The era of globalization has ended. Capital investments that have shifted to low-cost foreign manufacturing locations like China for the past 40 years are coming back to America because of the Beijing’s support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and threat […]

Amid the standard roll call of earnings sheets released in recent weeks, nearly every diagnostics developer marked present has reported a severe drop-off in COVID-19 test sales for the fourth quarter of calendar year 2022. That includes Siemens Healthineers , Abbott , Thermo Fisher and, most recently, BD, which hopped on the bandwagon Thursday by reporting a nearly 83% drop in its COVID-related revenues for the period—stylized as the first quarter of its fiscal 2023. That segment brought in a relatively measly $32 million for the quarter, barely one-sixth of the $185 million it earned for the same three months the year prior. And while BD was expecting COVID test sales to dry up throughout the year, it seemingly didn’t think the drought would hit so soon. In its first-quarter earnings report (PDF) Thursday, the company was forced to slash its full-year forecast for those sales in half: Though it kicked off the year expecting COVID-only diagnostics to rake in between $125 million and $175 million throughout 2023—which would already have represented only a quarter of 2022’s $511 million take—that guidance has now been lowered to somewhere between $50 million and $100 million. As was to be expected, the […]

Do you have layers and layers of bosses, reader? I’m Diamond Naga Siu, and long chains of command are pretty common at tech companies. But middle managers could be the latest layoff target in tech, especially after Mark Zuckerberg’s latest reported comments . After so many people were cut, those middle managers now have fewer workers to oversee. This makes them a natural next layoff target . I honestly feel bad for middle managers. As the name implies, they’re stuck in the middle, neither worker nor upper-management. And they need to try keeping everyone happy (meanwhile, a study even found that they’re more likely to be anxious and depressed ). Yikes. But if Zuck is on point, far fewer people could hold these precarious roles — at least at Meta. Anyways, I’m just a worker trying to share 10 interesting stories a day. So let’s dive into some tech.

While traditionally viewed as a hardware company, Apple has made major strides to expand its services business over the past few years. The reason behind the services push is quite obvious: as smartphones, tablets and other devices have matured and breakthrough innovations have become few and far between, replacement cycles have gotten longer, making it harder and harder for a company like Apple to keep growing or even maintaining revenue at its incredibly high level. Enter services, which provide Apple with a steady stream of recurring (and presumably high-margin) revenue, which, considering Apple‘s immense installed base of more than two billion active devices, was just too good an opportunity to pass on. Moreover, Apple‘s services are tightly integrated with its hardware, meaning they help with customer lock-in, i.e. binding users to the company’s ecosystem. The fact that customers can now do pretty much anything within Apple’s (in)famous „walled garden“ makes them even less likely to buy non-Apple devices when they‘re in the market for a new smartphone, laptop, tablet or smartwatch. Considering that Apple is still thought of as a hardware company and that it’s products grab most of the headlines, it’s easy to underestimate the size of Apple’s […]
