A phone that says “no” to little kid fingers

An algorithm for detecting who’s swiping the screen could help make phones child-proof.

It may soon be possible for your phone to automatically figure out whether it’s you or your five-year-old who’s swiping the screen—and, if it’s the latter, block apps you want to keep off-limits to kids.

That’s the vision of researchers at the University of South Carolina and China’s Zhejiang University, who’ve created an algorithm that can spot whether your kid is accidentally trying to, say, order from Amazon without your knowing. Tiếp tục đọc “A phone that says “no” to little kid fingers” →

(TBKTSG) – Khi cuốn sách của Jonathan Taplin “Move Fast and Break Things” (Di chuyển nhanh và Phá vỡ mọi thứ) được xuất bản ở Anh hồi tháng 4-2017, cái nhan đề phụ của nó “How Facebook, Google và Amazon cornered culture and undermined democracy” (Facebook, Google và Amazon đã lũng đoạn văn hóa và xói mòn nền dân chủ như thế nào) đã bị gạch bỏ bởi vì nhà xuất bản nghĩ rằng nhận định đó không có cơ sở. Nhưng lần tái bản vào đầu năm 2018, nhan đề phụ đó sẽ được khôi phục. Tác giả Taplin cho rằng “Đã có sự thay đổi rất lớn trong sáu tháng qua; trước đó mọi người dường như đang ngủ mê”.

The average productivity was $3,360 in 2015

The report pointed out that 74 percent of workers in the manufacturing & processing industry are expected to be replaced by robots. The figure is higher than the 54 percent of the Philippines, 58 percent of Thailand and 67 percent of Indonesia.

“Vietnam’s manufacturing and processing industry has low performance, and workers in the industry do not undergo intensive training. They mostly do assembling or simple work which can be replaced by machines,” the report said. Tiếp tục đọc “Most workers in manufacturing in danger of being eliminated” →

Bitcoin Mining Now Consuming More Electricity Than 159 Countries Including Ireland

The map above shows which countries consume less electricity than the amount consumed by global bitcoin miningBitcoin’s ongoing meteoric price rise has received the bulk of recent press attention with a lot of discussion around whether or not it’s a bubble waiting to burst.

However, most the coverage has missed out one of the more interesting and unintended consequences of this price increase. That is the surge in global electricity consumption used to “mine” more Bitcoins.

According to Digiconomist’s Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index, as of Monday November 20th, 2017 Bitcoin’s current estimated annual electricity consumption stands at 29.05TWh.

That’s the equivalent of 0.13% of total global electricity consumption. While that may not sound like a lot, it means Bitcoin mining is now using more electricity than 159 individual countries (as you can see from the map above). More than Ireland or Nigeria.

Myanmar’s government has barred Ashin Wirathu, an ultranationalist Buddhist monk, from public preaching for the past year, saying his speeches helped fuel the violence against the country’s Rohingya ethnic group that the United Nations calls ethnic cleansing.

So he has turned to an even more powerful and ubiquitous platform to get his message out — Facebook.

How to spot fake youtube views

Admin Tips and Tricks
15,000 views for $5??  What a deal!

If you poke around the microjob website Fiverr.com you’ll discover that you can have thousands and thousands of “views” delivered to the youtube video of your choosing for just a few bucks.  But don’t get excited; you can’t just buy youtube super stardom.  When you order one of these gigs you’re actually buying hits that are disguised to look like views.  So 15,000 real people will NOT be watching your video.  Your view count is simply going to get inflated by 15,000.  Some of these bogus views are generated by bots but in many cases hackers will secretly embed a video on a popular web page.  Every time someone accesses that page the video automatically plays….albeit silently and invisibly.
