Speaking to a conference at the Federal Reserve in Washington, Williams’ remarks took on the technical concept of the natural rate of interest, which is the interest rate that neither slows nor stimulates the economy. Before the pandemic struck, this measure, referred to as R-Star, had been historically low, allowing the central bank to keep its interest rate target at fairly low levels. Williams, a leading intellectual architect of the R-Star concept, said his bank would be relaunching its public estimate Friday, updating it on a quarterly basis. Williams’ contended that even with the pandemic and the aftermath of its most acute phase, the fundamental story of a low natural interest rate remains in place. But his comments suggest that once the Fed’s battle to contain high inflation is over it may again at some later time be able to return short-term rates to low levels.

Consider using standard technology as a recruiting toolReavill said Commons uses standard technology externally, in its consumer-facing applications, but also internally as a means of attracting top talent. Although some CEOs are skeptical about remote work, Reavill believes more tech leaders should embrace it. The main thing stopping companies in the environmental industry from quickly progressing isn't technology, "because we have a lot of powerful technology," Reavill said. "When things get bigger, and things become much more complex, you have to introduce more powerful and, in some ways, more constraining tools," Reavill said. A common sign of internal strain is when training new employees on standard technology tools becomes a burden.

Causes of death include starvation, watercraft collisions and cold stress. Florida’s manatee population was estimated at 5,733 in 2019, the last year in which the state conducted a count.
