    … can add value, but many still haven’t moved past the initial education stage into full-scale lean supply chain implementation. One reason may be that they haven’t made the paradigm shift as to how to implement lean. The Lean Supply Chain is a system of interconnected and interdependent partners that operate in unison to accomplish supply chain objectives. There should be metrics involved to monitor these objectives to ensure success across the supply chain. These metrics should be reviewed frequently to ensure supply chain success. – Cerasis

    … care about the long term consequences.

    Relations with China as a Liability
    Even without the virus, becoming a sister city with China, as described in the video, is a shortsighted proposition. China wants to bring manufactured products made in slave-like conditions to Germany. This is just like the US partnership with China, which is a war on the US middle class and is one of the things that has taken our income inequality back to the Dark Ages.
    Chinese immigration has been terrible for Italy and has to lead to sweatshops to rise in Italy, with everything being backward …

    This is explained in the following quotation.
    ..in 1969 Marvin Minsky and Seymour Papert published the book “Perceptrons” with a mathematical proof about the limitations of two-layer feed-forward perceptrons as well as unproven claims about the difficulty of training multi-layer perceptrons. The book’s only proven result—that linear functions cannot model non-linear ones—was trivial but the book had nevertheless a pronounced effect on research funding and, consequently, the community. – Wikipedia
    Therefore, Marvin Minsky and his writing partner make …

    Is PwC an academic or research institution?
    No.
    PwC is an auditor and consulting firm. PwC can’t perform open-ended research because it is controlled by partners whose only objective is to maximize profits, which they do by proposing certain things through pretending they do objective research. Even calling yourself a researcher is a stretch because the institution you work for does not allow for research that does anything but help sell PwC services. Secondly, PwC …

    And he does so again in this quotation.
    “Customers making the commitment to SAP S/4HANA for their digital transformations need a partner that is equally committed to supporting innovation across their businesses and processes.

    I run a self-funded SaaS startup that is getting decent traction, and just last month was contacted by one of the Silicon Valley big boys.
    As I could see from the screenshots, this phone call was assigned by one of the managing partners to one of the young associates. I guess that is pretty common.
    Anyway, we did have a nice conversation, but what struck me the most, this young Euro guy was completely clueless about my area of business, and since my startup also has some business specifics that only Americans …
