‘We are not looking to build the entire healthcare delivery ecosystem’

The role of retail players in healthcare, like CVS (CVS), Walmart (WMT) and now Amazon (AMZN), is being closely watched by investors and clinicians alike.

Google’s plans to build data center in Becker fizzle

Tech giant Google is no longer moving forward with plans to build a data center in the central Minnesota city of Becker. In filings with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission last week, Xcel Energy said it has terminated its agreements with Honeycrisp Power LLC, a Google affiliate, after the company failed to provide a notice to proceed with the project.

Google, Apple and Mozilla team up to build a better browser benchmark

Google, Apple and Mozilla are collaborating on a better web browser benchmark. Speedometer 3 will be a “cross-industry collaborative effort” from the Chrome, Safari and Firefox makers to create a new model that balances the companies’ visions for measuring responsiveness. Three companies making a tool that will rate the effectiveness of their competing products sounds like a recipe for disaster. However, Speedometer’s governance policy includes a consent system that differs based on… Source link
