Short form content should have a higher status on Hive and be rewarded higher than it currently is. @simplegame and a few others has been (and is) putting dedicated effort towards this. More of us should.

One way to contribute towards this, is to start giving bigger upvotes to threads. My personal criteria varies, but I generally give larger upvotes to threads of particularly high quality and to those by threaders that are consistently active.

Let it be no doubt, short form is the future of Hive.

https://inleo.io/threads/view/simplegame/re-mightpossibly-jq26eluk

also the more people engage with other people impacts my decisions.

Most definitely. Totally forgot about that

Engagement is important in this process.

My daily short form rewards, most days, now out way my long form.

That's awesome. Me too actually, mainly thanks to @darkcloaks. And also because I post almost no long-forms of course.

I didn't know, so does that mean that besides you, he and other heroes are giving this support to those who bring the shorts?

I hope that more people can also support those who are bringing cool content through shorts.

That is correct.

I'm not only talking about Shorts though, but short form content in general (as opposed to blog posts/long videos)

I understand, your attitude is really cool and this undoubtedly helps to motivate people to bring more content to the platform.

Everyone engaging as a community, we will have more prosperity.

I still do daily long form, it is a good comparison now.

Food Fact (28): The Three Musketeers doesn’t live up to its name. The famous Three Musketeers candy bar originally had vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate flavors in one!... Hello @taskmaster4450le, What can you say about this?
#foodtalk

It doesnt matter. I love them. My favorite candy.

Haha, I know that feeling, it's about enjoying them the way they are.

I guess people do not like food. They are not entering the food threadcast.

Well, maybe they are busy with other activities and may come later. I had a conversation about food with @emjeak earlier in the threadcast.

That is good. Conversations can really add things up. We need more of them.

Yeah, it keeps flowing.

He called that bowl of sliced veggies The Holy Trinity Salad, it's my first time knowing it and I wonder how the name came about.

God named it...or the Church...or some drunk in New Orleans.

Eat at home.

Wow! The fast food is way too expensive compared to the homemade version.

I wonder why some people still feel fast food is more economical.

Without a doubt. It is beyond tolerable. LOL

Welcome Lions! Happy Monday and the last week of August. It's another #foodtalk day on Leo.

What food did you enjoy as a child? Can you still remember? #foodtalk

As a kid I liked rice a lot, I was never satisfied when it comes to rice, but now my favorite food has changed to yam.

Lol. Why do kids like rice? I'm wondering how you got to switch from rice to yam... So was it white rice and stew that was your favorite as a child or jollof rice.

How to you prefer to have yam? Porridge, boiled yam and sauce, fried or roasted? #foodtalk

Back then I loved white rice and stew that was my favorite,
As I grew older I started loving the taste of yam because In my secondary school years they seldom have rice on the menu. Now I can eat yam prepared in any way. I love yam.

There is something special about white rice and stew I am yet to discover. Yeah, some types of yam are naturally sweet and when it is well prepared, it is always enjoyed.

I like yam as well, but it's not my favorite. #foodtalk

These days because of my health issues, I'm adviced to eat water yam it contains low sugar. For me it also taste great.

What did you have for breakfast? #foodtalk

After my every morning water therapy, I'll drink my tumeric, ginger, and garlic with bread.

This is a good way to start the morning. Tumeric, ginger and garlic have great health benefits.

Exactly. I recommend you give it a try.

Yes, I try it once in a while, I'm stuck with taking slightly hot water every morning and warm water throughout the day.

Yes that's what I call water therapy. I drink warm water every morning before my breakfast.

Are you cooking this week or eating out? Let's know what you are whipping up. 😋 #foodtalk

We always cook, but once a while we eat out.

That's great. You get more satisfaction when you cook, right?

Very healthy, hygienic and pocket friendly.

Exactly. You see the word "hygiene", many people ignore it.

I care much about it, very very important. My stomach reacts quickly to what goes in there.

What will you have for lunch? #foodtalk

Food Fact (29): Froot Loops are all the same flavor. As colorful as they are, you’d think they were flavored accordingly! But no,... That's right.

I will be cooking oha soup, potatoes and garden egg sauce this week. I have some foods in the freezer and may cook more if the need arises. #foodtalk

Wired: ‘Unprecedented Times’ Is the New Normal

The phrase has become a convenient descriptor for an increasingly inconvenient future.



https://www.wired.com/story/unprecedented-times-is-our-new-normal/

The Port of Seattle and Sea-Tac Airport say they’ve been hit by ‘possible cyberattack’

The Port of Seattle, which also operates the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, said it was hit with a “possible cyberattack”

The Port of Seattle, which also operates the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, said it was hit with a “possible cyberattack” that appeared to affect websites and phone systems.

The port first noted the outages via social media on Saturday morning, with the airport then posting that it had “experienced certain system outages indicating a possible cyberattack.”

#technology #cyberattack #newsonleo

Late Saturday evening, the airport said it was still experiencing outages: “There is not an estimated time for return and Port teams continue to work to restore full service.” It also encouraged travelers to use airline apps to get their boarding passes and bag tags, and to allow extra time to reach their gates.

The Port of Seattle, including SEA Airport, continues to see system outages. There is not an estimated time for return and Port teams continue to work to restore full service. (Cont.)

— Seattle-Tacoma Intl. Airport (@flySEA) August 25, 2024

As of Sunday morning Pacific time, the Port of Seattle’s public-facing web infrastructure, including its website, still appeared to be largely offline, per a TechCrunch review of its DNS records.

A TSA spokesperson told GeekWire that there was no impact on security operations. Earlier this year, the Biden Administration announced an executive order aimed at improving cybersecurity in ports.

This comes less than a month after a CrowdStrike software update caused a global IT meltdown that included flight cancellations and delays.

How to tell if your online accounts have been hacked

This is a guide on how to check whether someone compromised your online accounts.

More and more hackers are targeting regular people with the goal of stealing their crypto, perhaps getting into their bank accounts or simply stalking them. These types of attacks are still relatively rare, so there’s no need for alarm. But it’s important to know what you can do to protect yourself if you suspect someone got into your email or social media account.

A few years ago, I wrote a guide to help people protect themselves, and understand that most of the companies you have an account with already offer you tools to take control of your accounts’ security, even before you contact them for help, which in some cases you still should do.

#technology #hack

Here we break down what you can do on several different online services.

Just like in the previous guide, there’s an important caveat. You should know that these methods don’t guarantee that you haven’t been compromised. If you still aren’t sure, you should contact a professional, especially if you are a journalist, a dissident or activist, or otherwise someone who has a higher risk of being targeted. In those cases, the nonprofit Access Now has a digital security helpline that will connect you to one of their experts.

Another caveat, if you don’t do this already, you should enable multi-factor authentication on all your accounts, or at least the most important ones (email, banking, social media). This directory is a great resource that teaches you how to enable multi-factor authentication on more than 1,000 websites. (Note that you don’t have to use the multi-factor app promoted on that site, there are plenty of other alternatives.)

Increasingly some online services offer the use of a physical security key or a passkey stored in your password manager, which is one of the highest safeguards to prevent account intrusions that rely on password-stealing malware or phishing.

Uber fined $324M over EU drivers data transfer breach

Ride-hailing platform Uber has been fined €290 million -- around $324 million at current exchanges rates

Ride-hailing platform Uber has been fined €290 million — around $324 million at current exchanges rates — by the Netherlands’ privacy watchdog for breaching the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The penalty is related to transfers of personal data of drivers out of the European Union to the US, where Uber’s main business is located. The GDPR allows for fines of up to 4% of global annual turnover to be levied for non-compliance.

#newonleo #uber #eu #technology

Uber’s full year revenue for 2023 was around €34.5 billion — so the level of sanction is well below that maximum. However, it is still a notable amount as it’s among the largest penalties levied on a tech company since the GDPR began operating back in 2018.

The fine is the outcome of a series of complaints made by more than 170 Uber drivers in France back in 2021. The Dutch regulator, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens (or AP), leads on GDPR oversight of Uber as the company has its main EU establishment in the country. It investigated complaints over how the company processes the drivers’ personal data. Complaints were submitted through a human rights organization, Ligue des droits de l’Homme (LDH), to France’s privacy watchdog and then passed to the AP.

In January, Uber was fined €10 million for data access rights pertaining to the same complaints. But the new fine announced Monday dwarfs the earlier penalty — landing it a new spot on the list of tech giants stung with the ten biggest GDPR fines, just below mid-table.

The size of the penalty reflects the seriousness of the breach, per the AP, which wrote in a press release that Uber had failed to “appropriately safeguard” data which it transferred out of the EU — dubbing that “a serious violation”.

I think the answer is yes.

Are AI Models Becoming Commoditized?

Loft Orbital forms joint venture with UAE-based firm to scale satellite production in the Middle East

A new joint venture aims to rapidly scale the United Arab Emirates' domestic satellite production capabilities.

A holding company affiliated with an Emirati royal family is injecting a new joint venture between Abu Dhabi-based Marlan Space and startup Loft Orbital with over $100 million to grow the region’s domestic satellite manufacturing capabilities.

The joint venture, called Orbitworks, will be the first commercial firm in the United Arab Emirates to mass manufacture satellites. Majority ownership is with Marlan Space, a new space company affiliated with the International Holding Company. IHC is itself majority controlled by the Royal Group, a conglomerate owned by the ruling royal family of Abu Dhabi.

#newsonleo #space #loftorbital

The UAE has high ambitions for space — and deep pockets to fund them. The UAE Space Agency (UAESA) is less than a decade old, but the government has spent billions investing in homegrown capabilities and establishing partnerships with other countries and commercial players. The UAE sent its first astronaut (or privately funded “spaceflight participant” as NASA put it) to the ISS in 2019; two years later, it became the latest member of a very small group of nations to put a probe into Martian orbit.

The Gulf nation’s space ecosystem has a few key players beyond the UAESA: Space42, a merger of Emirati satellite firm Yahsat and data analytics company Bayanat; EDGE Group, a large industrial prime; and a handful of universities and research institutions like the National Space and Science Technology Center. The country is at the point where it wants to deploy satellite constellations, and bring satellite manufacturing capabilities in-house.

Loft Orbital CEO Pierre-Damien Vaujour said in a recent interview that he’s long had an interest in the UAE’s space ecosystem: “Even when we started Loft, I had in mind at the very beginning that I wanted to open activities in the UAE and contribute to the ecosystem over there.”

San Francisco-based Loft buys satellite buses in bulk and flies payloads for customers, using a standardized modular payload adaptor that integrates the customer’s hardware with the spacecraft. Loft handles all of the launch integration and operates the spacecraft once it achieves orbit. The startup can also perform “virtual missions,” where customers can deploy applications on orbit that leverage onboard sensors, compute and cameras.

Y Combinator backs its first defense startup, Ares Industries

The first defense startup to receive backing from Y Combinator, Ares Industries, launched earlier this week.

The first defense startup to receive backing from Y Combinator, Ares Industries, launched earlier this week.

In a post on the YC website, the startup outlined a vision to build low-cost cruise missiles that will be compatible with existing launch platforms, saying it will “deliver the capabilities that the [Department of Defense] wants in a form factor that’s 10x smaller and 10x cheaper.”

Ares Industries’s founders say they’ve tested prototypes in the Mojave Desert and plan to deliver working missile systems to their first customers in mid-2025.

#newsonleo #ycombinator #technology #aresinsutries

YC partner Jared Friedman told the FT that the incubator started encouraging defense tech startups to apply earlier this year.

YC’s CEO Garry Tan was an early employee at data analytics company Palantir, which has become hugely successful through its sometimes controversial work for U.S. military, as well as other governments and agencies. CEO Alex Karp defended the company’s “consistently pro-Western view” in a recent New York Times interview.

AI

Use of artificial intelligence reduces traffic in SP and RJ

Drivers who used to face congestion during peak hours when passing through the Barão Geraldo neighborhood, in Campinas, São Paulo, due to the traffic lights at the intersection, have now noticed an improvement in the flow of vehicles. In recent times, queues that were once common have become less frequent.

This reduction in drivers' waiting time is the result of a partnership between the city council and Google to implement the Green Light project. The artificial intelligence tool uses information from Google Maps, an application that monitors traffic in real time, to identify traffic lights that are causing congestion.

#newsonleo #technology #brazil #ai

The analysis carried out by AI is passed on to Google engineers, who then suggest adjustments to the opening and closing times of traffic lights, according to the flow of vehicle traffic.

The measure was implemented recently in Campinas and, according to the municipality's director of strategic projects and smart cities, Thais Costa, the reduction in drivers' waiting time has already been noticeable.

There are a lot of use cases for #ai.

This is just getting stared.

Fortunately yes. AI will dominate almost everything in the next 10 years.

It will happen a lot sooner. The impact is being felt.

People are even starting to lose jobs because of machines.

Literally the "future" has already arrived.

Comcast May Soon Charge You an Extra $100 a Month For Internet If You Are Not Careful

#comcast #internet #technology

We are about to enter the onset of the industrial #ai revolution. Time to gear up for it.

Anxiously waiting here.

It is growing each week. Just keep using the tools that get posted and see what you can do.

I started to use one that cuts my full length videos into shorts. It is only for a week but I can do it for now.

It's a good alternative. We really should use all the resources that can help us continue with our work here.

Who knows, one day this could be available right here in Leo?

I am sure they will build in some editing tools into Leo, I just dont know what. We will see what #ai can do and how these things can change.

It will be great if they can do that type of stuff.

The next year should be very interesting. Build quickly since things are moving fast.

It would be really good and I also hope that one day there will be the possibility of editing the videos.

Humanoid robots get cheaper parts, but reliability is still a challenge

As China seeks to advance the development of humanoid robots, its supply chains showcase cheaper, more innovative parts at the world robot conference in Beijing, but some executives warn the industry still needs to improve the reliability of its products.

Wisson Technology, known for its flexible robotic manipulators, does not rely on motors and reducers – transmission devices commonly used in robotics – but instead uses 3D-printed plastics and relies on pneumatic artificial muscles in its robots.

#newsonleo #technology #robot

This cheaper form of production allows the price of the company's flexible arms to be about a tenth of that charged for traditional robotic arms, said Cao Wei, an investor in Wisson through venture capital firm Lanchi Ventures, where he is a partner. .

The flexible technology will usher in robotic arms at a cost of about 10,000 yuan ($1,404), Wisson says on its website.

“(Wisson’s) soft arms can be used on humanoids,” Cao said, adding that the company has already provided samples to foreign companies that make humanoid robots.

Harmonic gear, which refers to machinery that plays a key role in controlling motion, was a key issue, he said.

China's robotics effort is supported by President Xi Jinping's policy of developing “new productive forces” in technology – a point highlighted in brochures for last week's event.

Across China, the world's biggest market for industrial robots, increasingly sophisticated technology is changing the face of traditional sectors such as manufacturing, automobiles, agriculture, education, as well as healthcare and home services.

Invisible Energy

Invisible energy revealed: stone extracted from the depths of mines is responsible for one of the greatest scientific and technological revolutions in modern history

When you think about discoveries that transformed the course of history, what comes to mind? Wars, revolutionary inventions or social movements?

Few remember that, in the dark depths of a mine in Europe, a small mineral would be responsible for one of the greatest scientific and technological revolutions of modernity.

At the end of the 18th century, in 1789, German chemist Martin Heinrich Klaproth isolated, for the first time, a previously unknown metal from a mineral that seemed to be just another geological curiosity.

Technology

Nanogeradores multiplicam potência e chegam à casa dos watts

A multiplicação da capacidade de geração de energia veio pelo uso de eletrodos que passam a carga uns para os outros, como atletas em uma corrida de revezamento.

Promissores nanogeradores, dispositivos capazes de gerar eletricidade a partir de movimentos e vibrações do ambiente e do corpo humano, acabam de dar um salto de qualidade, atingindo uma capacidade que os torna capazes de alimentar a larga maioria das tecnologias vestíveis.

Delowar Hussain e colegas da Universidade de Surrey, no Reino Unido, alcançaram um aumento de 140 vezes na densidade de potência em relação aos nanogeradores demonstrados anteriormente.

#newsonleo #technology #pt #hivebr

Para comparação, enquanto um nanogerador típico produz cerca de 10 miliwatts de energia, essa nova tecnologia pode aumentar essa produção para mais de 1.000 miliwatts (1 watt), o que a torna adequada para colheita de energia em diversas aplicações cotidianas.

O dispositivo é um nanogerador triboelétrico (TENG: TriboElectric NanoGenerator), um dispositivo que captura a energia de movimentos simples e cotidianos e os transforma em eletricidade - é uma forma de eletricidade estática.

Eles funcionam usando materiais isolantes que se tornam eletricamente carregados quando entram em contato e depois se separam - semelhante a quando você esfrega um balão no seu cabelo, e ele gruda devido à eletricidade estática.

"Em breve, lançaremos uma empresa focada em sensores de saúde autoalimentados e não invasivos usando tecnologia triboelétrica. Inovações como essas nos permitirão impulsionar novas atividades em tecnologias de saúde sustentáveis," disse o professor Bhaskar Dudem.

I have been thinking on sending some over that pool, how much you getting per month so far? ✌️

Eitherway, the amount of increase isn't a lot... The only way it'll become noticeable if LEO suddenly gained a huge volume, which hasn't happened yet.

cool, yeah I know its based on volume, I might still put some there to get exposure on CACAO since I have none

I'm getting something, but I don't track it...The USD value is actually lower from month to month because $LEO and $CACAO keeps dropping for some reason. But I have more of them, sadly, I don't exactly know how much.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS

2/

It was a hard weekend for me mentally. Grief hit me hard, Saturday was the worst. Yeseterday a bit better, I did manage to be on Threads more. But sleep.

3/

I don't know if I got board last evening or more than likely it was the grief, but I put down my laptop after 14 hours, turned off the tV and went to my bedroom around 7PM, I threw on the TV up there to relax. Relax I did, I woke up something after 12, turned off the TV and went back to sleep.

4/

Woke up to the alarm clock at 5am this morning, so I thought. Did my morning routine. Went to bathroom, put on a coffee, went outside for a smoke. Came back in for more coffee sat down and opened my laptop. And it was 5:30am. Oops. I must have been sleeping with the alarm clock going for a good 15 to 20 minutes.

5/

I do feel well rested, and for the moment the grief has subsided. And it is back to work today to keep me busy.

On The BBH Project, things are also slowly going onwards and upwards. I had a message this morning from @lbi-token:

6/

"Hey @bradleyarrow how would you feel if we added #bbho as a reward on our liquidity pool.

Thinking to keep our staked earnings staked, but adding all the liquid payouts our posts make as a little additional reward for our LP's in #lbi/$LEO:$0.03 pool.

Would you be ok with that?"

7/

What did I say? Damn strait. Go for it. Anything to help get this project more known. Baby steps, one brick in foundation at a time. This is awesome.

Here is to building and to the future.

Have you read the Lord of the Rings trilogy, written by J.R.R. Tolkien?

Which one did you like the most?

#polls #books #fantasy #hobby #leobooks

When I was in High School one of the books they assigned was The Hobbit. I couldn't get through it. So, no I've not read those books

I would really like it if here in Brazil there was this type of incentive too.

The Hobbit is a great book for children to start reading and understand the universe created by Tolkien.

But at least at the time you tried to read it. 😅

I have not, but I did pretend to try once xD

That was definitely a great answer. LOL

Right now the only way to log in and store Sats on @v4vapp is with a Hive account.

To interface better with what @vsc.network are building I want to add log in with an ETH account number and signing via a browser wallet.

Thoughts?

It's an excellent idea, very impressive progress and let it be kept improving and growing. Hats off to you.
