Ambient temperature is the air temperature of an environment or object. In computing, ambient temperature refers to the air temperature surrounding computing equipment.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), commonly called the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or colloquially Obamacare, is a United States federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010.
Mar 24, 2016. 1  President Obama has touted Affordable Care Act as a way to save money on health care costs. 2  The non-partisan office estimates that the program will cost the federal government $1.34 trillion over the next decade, an increase of $136 billion from the CBO's predictions in 2015. In 2016 alone, Obamacare will cost a total of $110 billion. The rising costs are likely caused by higher-than-expected enrollment in the expanded Medicaid program created under the law. The CBO also estimates that about 12 million people are currently covered through Obamacare's insurance marketplaces this year.
