I've noticed there are a lot of people on this site who favor nuclear energy. Given that it's just a technology choice, and that there are much cheaper [1], faster, options available I wonder why? --- [1] https://www.yo

This comparison is misleading because it confuses irradiation and contamination. While the dose rate recorded by a Geiger counter at a nuclear site may be low, that radiation is being generated by particles as small as dust. Ingesting a par

This is what makes me wonder about the commercial viability of Starship. A single rapidly resuable Starship will lead to a launch capacity glut. Now factor in a fleet of them. And that China and the EU will definitely respond, and Russia to

Had a quick look at the relative numbers. The original, 2014, directive aimed to eliminate 51,000 tones of e-waste annually [1]. That works out to about 0.11kg per-person annually. Currently the average EU citizen disposes of 0.74kg of &quo

The 4yo language abilities are a combination of spoken language and visual/manual interaction with the physical world. So there's a lot of multimodal learning going on and visual and tactile input undoubetedly counts for a lot. I&

Listening is the key to selling - I had that drilled in to me by a really awesome sales expert. And learning to sell saved my startup. In a 15 minute demo we spend 10 minutes finding the prospects key pain point. Then the demo is 4 minutes

It's important to keep in mind that automating tasks also improves quality . So even if it looks like time is wasted, preventing just a single mistake administering a customer's account can be worth a huge amount of earlier inves

Flies (100k neurons), when trapped, will fly upwards and toward the light until they die of exhaustion. Exactly like that ass that cannot decide which way to go. Bees (500k neurons) have the self awareness to get bored. After a few minutes

I suspect the reason we are hearing about this is that Equifax is about to start selling a new service: "How many jobs do your employees have?". Or maybe real-time alerting direct to HR.

Truss is borrowing £45B to pay for tax cuts this year. But like you ask any addict: "What are you going to do next year?" The trickle-down maths looks "optimistic". Cutting £45B means that the economy needs to grow by £1

The first 71 minutes of the response timeline are exemplary. But then two gaps emerge: 1. (Bad) Why did it take an entire day to notify the contractor? 2. (Much, much worse) Why is there no mention of any investigation into all the historic

Before anyone freaks out too much: "Persistent" means up to one week. From the actual paper: "However, results were not significant for an abstinence period of more than 7 days." Basically, science has proved that stoner

Agree! It is hard to sell security to SMEs! Vitamins vs. pain-killers... We do have success with enterprise and our goal (hence the name) is to integrate with cyber-insurance.

This is a great self-hosted solution! We built CyberSentinel ( https://www.insurtechnix.com/ ) to solve two problems with this approach. Firstly the raw CVE feed is quite "noisy" so you need almost full NLP to get t

Good questions @JetSpiegel! Prompted me to search for & read the SCRAM wiki page. Found the answers there. SCRAM helps by adding independent checks on server identity and channel security. So: if you 100% trust the TLS CA, cert, and imp

The attackers got cold feet after they were told that they had killed a patient. It is the first documented case of ransomware causing a fatality.

InsurTechnix believes that it's important to pro-actively defend against ransomware. The costs of e.g. patching OSes, or updating software applications, or blocking RDP ports, etc. are tiny by comparison with direct and indirect costs
