Polkadot is getting ready to shred! A similar formation was seen in $HIVE a few weeks ago which triggered a 30% pump almost immediately after breaking out. In both cases, a 30% pump is just the beginning. Both assets point to a continuation of bullish price action. However, a breakout is often retested and should be interpreted as a healthy sign rather than a weakness. #polkadot #cent #sapphirecrypto
When building passive income models, active and semi-passive models serve and enhance the apex model of authentic passive income models like staking. Another passive income idea that is entirely passive is delegation on the Hive blockchain. It’s simply a case of delegating and earning. In other words, these alternative income models are utilized to “feed” the authentic model. #cent #sapphirecrypto

Good morning. It's also a late morning and I slept more than 8 hours. I slept too much because last day I felt sleepy all the day. Although I slept so much time, I feel sleepy now. I didn't get the point why I feel so sleepy.
Yup, that is more me than not. I was once accused of being mentally deficient because I am quiet. That was special. I was at a cookout at my friend's house. Never met the guy before that. He was so lucky that I have an infinite amount of self control and didn't know what a throat punch was at the time or couldn't throw one even if I did. And he wasn't worth the jail time anyway. 😂 😂
This guy is amazing! He made a browser plugin for a Mac computer released in 1996 to be able to run websites. It can even access ChatGPT and Claude! Though stripped versions of them.
People need to understand how short a time period 30 years is and how rapidly things advanced. Now, if we extrapolate it out the next 30 years, due to acceleration, we are going to see a much bigger gap compared to where we are today.

I need under 1,100 tokens to reach my target and hope to achieve it soon. My SPS holdings, worth around $1,600, are for long-term growth, and I plan to reinvest the rewards. This strategy boosts my game rewards and accumulates more tokens over time.
I have been aggressively accumulating SPS tokens, nearing my goal. With the bull run approaching, I aim to build my portfolio before prices surge, making it harder to buy. Recently, I purchased another 1,000 SPS and powered it up.

Nintendo has posted a call for 10,000 testers who'll get first access to an unnamed, mysterious Switch Online feature. The whole posting is rather vague and offers no solid clues on what feature it's testing exactly, but only people who have an active Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership can participate in the "Playtest Program." Nintendo's $50-a-year Switch Online Expansion Pack adds Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis and Game Boy Advance games to the subscription service's games library. #technology #newsonleo
It also gives users free access to downloadable content for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Splatoon 2.
Testers must also be at at least 18 years old and must have an account registered in Japan, the US, the UK, France, Germany, Italy or Spain. Switch Online subscribers who want to participate can send in an application by scrolling to the bottom of Nintendo's announcement and clicking the "To Application Page" link.
The company will start accepting entries today, October 10, at 8AM PT/11AM ET, until November 5 at 4:59PM PT/7:59PM ET. Nintendo will choose participants in Japan through a raffle if it receives a lot of applications. Everyone else may want to hurry if they want to participate, because it'll be first come first serve for them. The company will also stop taking applications early if it quickly reaches the maximum number of participants.
Sony’s line of LinkBuds products has served two key purposes. First, it gave the company a playground to introduce wildly different designs like the donut-shaped first-gen LinkBuds.
It also allowed Sony to develop the LinkBuds S, a more traditional set that offered a taste of its flagship 1000X products for $100 less. That model was certainly more compelling than the company’s basic models that go for $120 and below.
Lucid dreams could unlock new dimensions of communication. Researchers at REMspace recently demonstrated that people can communicate in their dreams. Participants in REMspace's study were able to send and receive messages through a server that recorded their brain waves and other polysomnographic data during REM sleep. The company plans to release a device that accurately tracks all sleep stages for customers to view on a mobile app by 2025.
While life expectancies have generally increased in the last few decades, the rate at which they are increasing is slowing down. This suggests that humans could be closing in on the limits of what's possible for average life span. The only thing that might radically lengthen life expectancy may be an intervention that slows the aging process itself, something some scientists are optimistic about.
Waves tend to flow equally in both directions. This can cause interference, garbling signals or reducing efficiency. Researchers at ETH Zurich have figured out how to direct sound waves so that they only travel forward without weakening the sound's strength. This feat could have vast implications for future technologies, from communications systems to radar.
WordPress.org has taken over the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin, a popular WP Engine plugin. It claims the move was intended to remove commercial upsells and fix a security problem. WordPress co-founder Matt Mullenweg claims that the move was related to WP Engine's recently-filed lawsuit against him and Automattic. Those who aren't WP Engine, Flywheel, or ACF Pro customers will need to go to the ACF site and download the genuine 6.3.8 version to keep getting updates.
SpaceX's Super Heavy booster was caught by a launch tower using arms that the company has nicknamed the 'chopsticks' at the completion of Starship's fifth flight test yesterday. The remarkable catch was an important step towards making the Super Heavy booster a fully reusable launch system. Starship splashed down in the Indian Ocean a little over an hour after launch. A short clip of the booster being caught by the launch tower is available in the article.
At Tesla’s We, Robot event at Warner Bros. Discovery’s studio in California, the company finally unveiled its robotaxi. The car is expected to go into production before 2027, but even Musk caveated that, saying he was “highly optimistic with timeframes.”
The Cybercab doesn’t have a steering wheel and, according to Elon Musk (so pinch of salt!), could be very cheap to run. The Tesla boss said the operating cost of the robotaxi would be 20 cents a mile, 30 to 40 cents with taxes. He also confirmed people can buy one and that Tesla expects to sell the Cybercab for below $30,000. He still, predictably, said something weird.
Musk said he envisions a future where people own several robotaxis and manage a fleet like shepherds. Huh?
The technology is a little different to most of its robotaxi competitors. Tesla has long dropped radars and sensors that other robotaxis, like Waymo’s, use extensively, instead going for cameras and AI object detection. There’s also no charging port, using inductive charging instead, so a completely different infrastructure is needed to keep these vehicles on the roads.
Not one to waste a big event, Musk also briefly introduced the Robovan — an autonomous van that can carry up to 20 people and transport goods, and he marched out a line of Optimus robots, which ended up serving drinks to attendees during the event.

Table Space is targeting a valuation of $2.5 billion or higher for an India IPO planned planned for 2025.
Table Space, an Indian managed workspace provider, is targeting a valuation of $2.5 billion or more for an IPO planned for next year, sources familiar with the matter told TechCrunch.
The Bengaluru-headquartered startup has hired Axis as a bookrunner for the IPO, the sources said.
Founded in 2017, Table Space leases large office spaces, transforms them into fully serviced, tech-enabled campuses, and offers them to corporate clients as customized offices, co-working spaces, and managed meeting rooms. Hillhouse Capital invested $300 million in Table Space in a funding round in late 2022, and the startup is currently valued at about $550 million.
The company operates more than 60 centers across six urban Indian cities, primarily serving Fortune 500 companies such as Apple, Google, Mastercard, PayPal, AMD, Ericsson and Shell. The startup has expanded its real estate portfolio to over 9.5 million square feet across major Indian cities, and aims to nearly double this footprint within three years by investing about $535 million.
The telecom industry is undergoing its greatest period of disruption since the telegraph
The telecom industry is undergoing its greatest period of disruption since the telegraph, as companies work to open up space as the next frontier for communications. French startup Constellation hopes to take part by repurposing 5G tech to provide a Starlink-like satellite broadband that uses telecoms’ existing assets.
Constellation's business model is built around providing high-speed Internet access to users through a constellation of satellites in very low ⇪ orbit× (VLEO).
The company will work directly with telecom operators to provide this service, with the operators paying for the service and sharing the revenue with Constellation.
This approach is different from traditional satellite internet services, which often require users to pay for a satellite dish and internet service provider. Constellation's model is more similar to traditional telecom services, where the operator is responsible for providing the internet access and the user only pays for the service.
Constellation plans to repurpose part of the 5G spectrum allocated to telecom operators on the ground for its space communications service. This spectrum can be used to provide cellular signals to and from orbit, reducing latency and increasing performance rates.
By using 5G spectrum, Constellation can integrate with the design of its user terminals and satellite payloads mass-produced, cheap components that are already being produced for terrestrial communication networks. This will help drive down costs and increase the scalability of its service.
Constellation's satellite form factor is designed to operate in VLEO, which is about 375 kilometers above the Earth's surface. This altitude allows for faster data transfer rates and lower latency compared to traditional geostationary satellites.
The satellite form factor is also designed to be more compact and efficient, reducing the cost of launching and maintaining the satellites. Constellation's satellites will be capable of transmitting and receiving data at speeds of up to 150 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink.
User Terminals
Constellation's user terminals will be designed to work with its satellite communications service, providing users with a cost-effective way to access high-speed internet. The terminals will be small, lightweight, and easy to use, making them accessible to a wide range of users.
The user terminals will also be designed to work with existing 5G networks, allowing users to switch seamlessly between their cellular and satellite internet connections. This will provide users with a reliable and fast internet connection, regardless of their location.
Launch Plans
Constellation has announced plans to launch a hosted payload to orbit by June 2025, which will carry out an end-to-end test of its service. The company will then launch two prototype satellites by the end of 2026, with the aim of deploying production satellites the following year.
The launch of the first satellite will mark a significant milestone in the development of Constellation's space-based internet connectivity solution. The company's plans for launching a constellation of 1,500 satellites to provide global coverage are ambitious, but the potential rewards are significant.
Partnerships and Investment
Constellation has secured a €9.3 million ($10.2 million) seed round to accelerate its plans, which will be used to fund the development and launch of its satellites. The company has also partnered with Expansion Fund, Bpifrance, and an unnamed investor to support its growth plans.
Constellation's partnerships and investment will help the company to scale its operations and develop its technology, providing a strong foundation for its future growth and success.
Competitive Landscape
Constellation is entering a crowded market, with several other companies developing space-based internet connectivity solutions. However, Constellation's focus on collaboration with telecom operators and its use of terrestrial 5G spectrum sets it apart from the competition.
Constellation's CEO, Charles Delfieux, has stated that the company's goal is to provide a telco-friendly solution that allows operators to monetize their 5G networks and compete effectively with new entrants like SpaceX and Amazon's Kuiper.
By working with telecom operators and leveraging their expertise, Constellation can provide a high-quality internet connectivity service that is tailored to the needs of the operator and their customers. This approach will help the company to differentiate itself from competitors and establish a strong market presence.
Constellation's plans are ambitious, and the company will face several challenges in the coming years. These include developing and launching a constellation of satellites, integrating with telecom operators, and providing a reliable and fast internet connection to users.
However, the opportunities presented by Constellation's technology and business model are significant. The company has the potential to provide universal internet access to millions of people worldwide, which could have a profound impact on global development and economic growth.
Constellation's innovation and leadership in the space-based internet connectivity market could also create new opportunities for growth and investment, as the company establishes itself as a major player in the industry.
Cord Cutting Trends: Cable Providers Face Challenges as Streaming Habits Evolve
The latest episode of "Cord Cutting Today" highlights several significant trends in the evolving landscape of television and Internet consumption. Host Luke Bouma breaks down key developments that are reshaping how consumers access entertainment and connectivity services.
According to recent reports, major cable providers like Comcast and Spectrum are expected to continue losing subscribers in the coming years. Industry analysts predict that cable internet providers could lose over 2 million subscribers in 2024 and an additional 1 million in 2025. This trend, dubbed "Cord Cutting 2.0," represents a shift beyond just canceling traditional TV services to also switching internet providers.
While some analysts anticipate a potential turnaround for cable companies by 2026 as they expand into rural markets, Bouma expresses skepticism about this projection. He believes the trend towards alternative internet options like 5G home internet and fiber will continue to challenge traditional cable providers.
The survey conducted by Cord Cutters News reveals a significant shift in streaming service subscriptions. Key findings include:
76.6% of cord-cutters nOW pay for four or fewer streaming services, up from 63% in spring 2024.
60.5% subscribe to three or fewer services, a substantial increase from 47% earlier in the year.
43.2% of respondents NOW pay for two or fewer services, nearly doubling from 27.3% in the spring.
This trend suggests that consumers are becoming more selective with their streaming subscriptions, potentially rotating services or opting for free, ad-supported alternatives.
The article mentions the recent implementation of FCC-mandated broadband "nutrition labels." These labels, now required for aLL U.S. internet providers, aim to increase transparency by clearly displaying information about average speeds, pricing, and fees in a format similar to food nutrition labels.
The cord-cutting landscape continues to evolve rapidly, with consumers becoming more discerning about their choices in both internet providers and streaming services. While traditional cable companies face challenges, new technologies and services are reshaping the market. As these trends develop, it remains to be seen how providers will adapt to changing consumer preferences and the increasing demand for flexibility and value in entertainment and connectivity options.
American enterprise software giant ServiceNow says it plans to invest $1.5 billion in the U.K. over the next five years.
American enterprise software giant ServiceNow announced Monday it plans to invest $1.5 billion in the U.K. over the next five years, in a vote of confidence for Prime Minister Keir Starmer as he looks to attract foreign investment to the country.
In a significant move that underscores the United Kingdom's growing importance in the global tech landscape, ServiceNow, a leading cloud-based workflow management company, has announced a substantial £5.3 billion ($6.5 billion) investment in the country. This mammoth financial commitment is set to fuel the expansion of ServiceNow's UK operations and contribute to the nation's artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
The investment will primarily focus on three key areas: business expansion, AI development, and skills training. ServiceNow plans to increase its physical presence in the UK by acquiring new office space and growing its workforce beyond the current 1,000 employees. This expansion is expected to create numerous jobopportunities and strengthen the company's foothold in the Britishmarket.
A significant portion of the investment will be directed towards enhancing the UK's AI infrastructure. ServiceNow intends to localize the processing of data for its large language models (LLMs) within the country. To achieve this, the company will deploy NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPUs) in its data centers located in London and Newport, Wales.
This move will enable the development of "domain-specific LLMs" tailored for UK clients and government entities, aligning with the growing call for AI "sovereignty" among European policymakers and regulators.
The concept of AI sovereignty emphasizes the importance of storing AI technologies and data within Europe, ensuring that these systems accurately reflect European culture and history. By investing in local data processing capabilities, ServiceNow is positioning itself at the forefront of this movement, potentially setting a precedent for other tech giants operating in the region.
In addition to infrastructure and business expansion, ServiceNow is committed to addressing the skills gap in the UK's tech sector. The company plans to introduce new skills programs that aim to reach 240,000 learners, contributing to the development of a highly skilled workforce capable of driving innovation in AI and related technologies.
Bill McDermott, ServiceNow's CEO, expressed enthusiasm about the investment, stating, "The United Kingdom is embracing technology transformation at scale. In this new age of AI, the country continues to be a global leader in driving innovation for the benefit of aLL its communities." He emphasized the company's goal of putting AI to work in a way that empowers people, enriches experiences, and strengthens societal bonds.
The timing of this announcement coincides with the International Investment Summit, where UK leader Keir Starmer is set to meet with 300 business leaders to encourage foreign investment. ServiceNow's commitment serves as a powerful endorsement of the UK's potential as a global hub for AI innovation and tech development.
ServiceNow's investment in the UK follows a trend of major tech companies recognizing the country's strategic importance. Earlier this year, Salesforce opened its first global AI center in London, part of a $4 billion investment plan announced in June of the previous year.
The tech firm's confidence in the UK market is reflected in its strong financial performance, with shares climbing over 37% this year, partly driven by the excitement surrounding AI. In the second quarter of 2024, ServiceNow reported earnings per share of $3.13 (excluding items) on $2.63 billion in revenue, exceeding analyst expectations.
As ServiceNow continues to innovate in the AI space, exemplified by the recent launch of its Xanadu platform featuring AI "agents" designed to boost worker productivity, this substantial investment in the UK positions the company to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of AI technology and its applications in Europe and beyond.
TikTok's Dark Secrets: Internal Documents Reveal App's Compulsive Design and Negative Mental Health Effects
A recent lawsuit filed by the Kentucky Attorney General's Office has shed light on the inner workings of TikTok, revealing a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. According to internal documents reviewed by NPR,
TikTok's executives and employees knew that the app's features were designed to foster compulsive use, leading to a range of negative consequences, including loss of analytical skills, memory formation, and increased anxiety.
The documents reveal that TikTok's own research found a strong correlation between compulsive usage and negative mental health effects, including depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Despite this knowledge, the company has continued to design its app to be highly engaging, with features such as infinite scrolling, algorithm-driven content, and notifications that keep users hooked. This has led to a situation where young users, in particular, are spending excessive amounts of time on the app, often to the detriment of their mental and physical health.
The company's attempt to address concerns about compulsive use is its time-management tool, which sets a default limit of 60 minutes a day for app use. However, internal documents reveal that this tool is ineffective, with teens still spending an average of 107 minutes on the app even when it's switched on. The company's own research found that minors lack the executive function to control their screen time, making it difficult for them to stick to the recommended limits.
Furthermore, the documents reveal that TikTok is aware of the existence of "filter bubbles," which can lead users down a rabbit hole of negative content, including hate speech, disinformation, and harmful ideologies. Employees conducted internal studies, which found that they themselves became trapped in negative filter bubbles after following certain accounts. The company is also aware of content and accounts promoting disordered eating, self-harm, and other harmful behaviors, yet has failed to take adequate action to remove such content.
The documents also reveal that TikTok's moderation efforts have been inadequate, with underage girls on the app receiving "gifts" and "coins" in exchange for live stripping, and higher-ups in the company instructing moderators not to remove users reported to be under 13 years old unless their accounts explicitly stated that they were under 13. The company has also acknowledged that a substantial number of content violating its rules gets through its moderation techniques, including videos that normalize pedophilia and glorify minor sexual assault.
In response to the lawsuit, TikTok spokesman Alex Haurek defended the company, claiming that the Kentucky AG's complaint "cherry-picks misleading quotes and takes outdated documents out of context to misrepresent our commitment to community safety." Haurek also highlighted the company's "robust safeguards," including the removal of suspected underage users and the launch of safety features such as default screentime limits and family pairing.
However, the internal documents reviewed by NPR paint a disturbing picture of a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. As the lawsuit against TikTok continues to unfold, it is clear that the company has a long way to go in terms of addressing its complicity in the mental health crisis affecting young people today.
The revelations in the internal documents raise serious concerns about the impact of social media on young people's mental health and well-being. The fact that TikTok is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users, is a clear indication that the company is more concerned with its own profits than with the well-being of its users.
In conclusion, the internal documents reviewed by NPR reveal a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. As the lawsuit against TikTok continues to unfold, it is clear that the company has a long way to go in terms of addressing its complicity in the mental health crisis affecting young people today.

Amazon's audience-based advertising model allows brands to tailor ads to specific customer segments, using the company's vast data trove on over 200 million Prime members.
This approach enables brands to reach their target audience more effectively, by using data and analytics to identify the most relevant and effective ad creative. Amazon's audience-based advertising model has helped bring 50 new advertisers to NFL programming, according to Neiman.
Amazon is pushing the envelope on the consumer viewing experience, both during games and commercial breaks. The company is experimenting with new formats, such as:
Alternate Streams: Amazon is exploring alternative streaming formats, such as 360-degree video and virtual reality experiences.
AI-Driven Analytics: Amazon is using AI and machine learning to analyze game data and provide viewers with more insights and information.
In-Game Shopping: Amazon is incorporating in-game shopping features, allowing viewers to purchase products during commercial breaks.
These experiments are aimed at enhancing the viewing experience and providing more value to Prime members. As Neiman said, "Sports fans are incredibly passionate about their teams and leagues and the games. It's an area where there's endless opportunity for innovation."
Overall, Amazon's sports streaming efforts are focused on delivering high-quality content, innovative technology, and enhanced user experience. By investing in sports media rights, cloud computing infrastructure, and audience-based advertising, Amazon is well-positioned to dominate the sports streaming landscape.
Entrepreneurs and academics worldwide are trying to figure out how far innovation can stretch the power and performance of batteries.
Since 2017, the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds at the University of Washington have provided a space, tools and expertise to support that work for startups and university staff and students. Today the facility’s leaders are unveiling plans for an open-access lab that will allow researchers to validate their new technologies by incorporating them into custom-made pouch cell batteries.
“A battery is a chemical system that is highly engineered so that all the parts work together,” said Dan Schwartz, founding director of the UW’s Clean Energy Institute, which includes the testbeds. “And the nation is really under-invested in that kind of engineering work.”
Here’s the challenge. Researchers often tackle one component of a battery’s system for optimization, such as the chemistry of an anode. But they need to demonstrate how their solution performs with the rest of the ingredients if they want to prove its benefits.
The new lab will provide that missing piece in the engineering infrastructure.
The facility will have a dry room and equipment for creating electrode slurries, coating electrodes, and layering the battery components. The batteries will be fabricated in plastic-lined aluminum pouches that bear a resemblance to a Pop Tart package.
While useful for experiments, the pouch cell batteries also have commercial applications in electric vehicles and consumer electronics. Schwartz said there’s growing demand for the pouch cell batteries from heavy trucking and aviation.

In a recent video, Y Combinator (YC) partners Dalton Caldwell and Michael Seibel discuss their optimistic outlook on the future, despite being immersed in an environment where startup failures are commonplace. As early-stage investors, they witness numerous startups faltering daily and are well-acquainted with the challenges of building successful companies. However, their perspective on technological progress and societal advancement remains overwhelmingly positive.
Caldwell and Seibel emphasize that maintaining a broad, historical perspective is crucial to recognizing the tremendous progress that has occurred in recent decades. They argue that young people's pessimism about the future is misplaced, largely due to the constant barrage of negative news, especially surrounding technology.
Caldwell and Seibel argue that optimism is not just a feel-good attitude but a crucial driver of progress. They point out that history's great changemakers and social critics were fundamentally optimistic, believing that their efforts could make a difference. This optimism fueled their willingness to invest time and energy into solving problems and driving change.
The partners express excitement about the world their children will inherit, anticipating further advancements in areas like transportation (e.g., the possibility of reaching Tokyo in 45 minutes) and space technology. They encourage viewers to embrace optimism as a tool for creating positive change and warn against the allure of cynicism and inaction.
While acknowledging the very real challenges and failures they encounter in their work with startups, Caldwell and Seibel maintain a decidedly optimistic view of the future. They argue that by maintaining perspective, recognizing progress, and embracing an optimistic outlook, individuals can contribute to creating a better future. Their message serves as a counterpoint to prevailing pessimism and encourages engagement with the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.
Treated as one of the American space agency's flagship missions, it cost US$5.2 billion - expensive even by the standards of this type of mission (Perseverance, for example, cost US$2.75 billion).
NASA expects to launch this Monday (14) its most important interplanetary robotic mission since the departure of the Mars rover Perseverance in 2020. The Europa Clipper mission will aim to determine the potential habitability of the most famous and intriguing of Jupiter's moons, Europe.
To be launched now by a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, it will only reach the vicinity of Jupiter in April 2030. Along the way, the spacecraft will fly over Mars (in February 2025 ) and Earth (in December 2026), to put itself at the right speed and trajectory to enter Jupiter's orbit and begin a mission that foresees at least 49 close flybys of Europa.
Clipper is expected to become the third spacecraft in history to enter orbit around Jupiter, after Galileo (1995) and Juno (2016), both from NASA. The European Juice was launched earlier (2023), but will make its orbital insertion later (2031), thus becoming the fourth Jovian orbiter.
With its 22-meter solar panels, the six-ton probe (including onboard fuel) will generate 600 watts to operate its nine instruments, even though it is five times further from the Sun than Earth. The idea is to use its cameras, spectrometers, radar and radio system to carry out a detailed examination of Europa, including investigating the configuration of the liquid water ocean that hides beneath the moon's ice crust.
Discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610, it is about 3,120 km in diameter, slightly smaller than the Earth's Moon (3,475 km). But the most bombastic revelation about it came with the mission that paid homage to the famous Italian astronomer, Galileo, which indicated the presence of the internal ocean, possibly in contact with a rocky bed with hydrothermal vents.
On Earth, these appear to have been the circumstances that led to the emergence of life. Whether something similar could have happened in Europa is unknown, but the idea of European life forms has already been established in science fiction at least since the book "2010: A Space Odyssey 2", by Arthur C. Clarke, from 1982. (and made into a film in 1984). Clipper Europe, however, will be more focused on facts than fiction.
The initiative does not have the stated objective of finding European life, but it will attempt to characterize the subsurface ocean and its contents in detail, confirming its habitability. One of the most exciting prospects is the study of water plumes that can be ejected through cracks in the ice crust, being exposed to space. Clipper will try to fly over them, similar to what the Cassini probe did with Saturn's icy moon Enceladus between 2005 and 2015 - another potential habitable environment (at least for microorganisms) in the Solar System.
Clipper's task, however, is more challenging. The environment around Europa is bathed in an intense radiation belt generated by Jupiter's magnetic field, which forced NASA to adopt a "come and run" strategy, with rapid sequential flybys, during laps around Jupiter, in instead of a stop in orbit around the moon.
The effort required the spacecraft to be designed with titanium and aluminum reinforcements to protect the electronics against radiation. And even then there will be no lack of emotion. In the final phase of preparation for launch, it was discovered that transistors similar to those on board, made to withstand the hostile environment around Europa, were failing in less severe radiation conditions.
For four months, NASA carried out exhaustive tests of these components and their functioning together. If it was necessary to change them, the mission would have to be postponed. But, at the beginning of September, the agency announced that it had a safety margin in all circuits involved to successfully carry out the mission. The launch schedule and the expectation that the spacecraft can operate for around four years in orbit around Jupiter, as planned, were maintained.
The Falcon Heavy rocket, which will carry the Europa Clipper probe, will be launched from the Kennedy Space Center, in Florida, USA. The event can be followed live on NASA's YouTube channel. The transmission starts at 4pm, with take-off scheduled for shortly after 5pm (Lisbon time).
The Europa Clipper mission aims to study the moon Europa, one of Jupiter's largest moons, in detail. The probe is scheduled to reach the moon in 2030. With an estimated cost of around 4.57 billion euros, the mission seeks to understand more about the surface of Europa, which, millions of years ago, may have had favorable conditions for the emergence of life forms.
"Se pensarmos em toda a água que existe na Terra e a duplicarmos, essa é a quantidade de água que acreditamos existir em Europa", explicou Caroline Harper, chefe de ciência espacial da Agência Espacial do Reino Unido, ao The Guardian. "A água é essencial para a vida, como a conhecemos, e, se quisermos encontrar vida em outro lugar do Sistema Solar, é muito provável que esteja em uma lua gelada como esta. A missão Europa Clipper investigará se Europa é um local habitável e capaz de sustentar vida no vasto oceano sob sua superfície gelada."
"É entusiasmante pensar que, na próxima década, poderemos ter provas científicas definitivas do potencial de mundos habitáveis além do nosso planeta", acrescentou Harper.
According to the website IGN, Game Freak confirmed that the attack took place in August 2024. Hackers illegally accessed the company's server, obtaining the names and emails of 2,606 employees, both current and former.
Additionally, the leak revealed that the codename for Nintendo's next console is "Ounce" and that the next generation of 'Pokémon' games is internally called "Gaia." These new games are believed to be being developed for the successor to the Switch console.
A Ericsson, multinacional sueca que acaba de completar 100 anos de atuação no Brasil, abrirá em 2025 uma nova empresa no País, e a indicação é de que o negócio terá atuação totalmente voltada para a oferta de produtos e serviços para redes privativas. O segmento é uma das maiores apostas da indústria de telecomunicações para ampliar suas fontes de receitas.
"O seu objetivo aqui será implementar um modelo de mercado capaz de suprir as operadoras em casos de usos específicos de redes", disse o presidente da Ericsson para o Cone Sul da América Latina, Rodrigo Dienstmann.
As redes privativas são redes de internet que atendem a demandas customizadas de empresas, como atividades dentro de fábricas, exploração de minas, logística de transportes, agropecuária, entre outros setores produtivos. Essas operações têm necessidades particulares, como a cobertura de internet em áreas extensas ou a segurança reforçada contra interrupção do sinal. Por esse motivo, as empresas contratam equipamentos e serviços sob demanda.
+A previsão de especialistas é de um impulso no mercado de redes privativas ao redor do mundo nos próximos anos, uma vez que a chegada do sinal 5G permite conexões mais rápidas e com menor tempo de resposta entre os dispositivos - características fundamentais para uso de drones, veículos e robôs industriais.
A Ericsson já trabalha com redes privativas no Brasil. A empresa forneceu, por exemplo, os equipamentos para a rede privativa 5G da Nestlé, em Caçapava (SP), em um projeto que também envolveu a Embratel.
NOVOS NEGÓCIOS. Segundo Dienstmann, a chegada da EEWS ao Brasil permitirá uma atuação mais focada no segmento. "O negócio tradicional da Ericsson é de grandes contratos de fornecimento de equipamentos para as operadoras, com valores na faixa de centenas de milhões de dólares. Já o novo negócio terá um número muito maior de contratos, espalhados em várias operações, embora com valor individual menor", disse o executivo.
Dienstmann acrescentou que o grupo reforçará a prospecção de novos negócios, o que será feito em parceria com as operadoras de internet. O objetivo é desenvolver soluções específicas para as atividades dos setores produtivos.
O executivo acrescentou que o maior desafio de crescimento para esses mercados ainda é a oferta de dispositivos industriais que já captem o sinal da tecnologia 5G, mas ele acredita que isso tende a mudar pouco a pouco. "No mundo, as redes privadas estão no começo do ciclo. Esse mercado está em desenvolvimento."
No Brasil, corporações como Gerdau, Stellantis e Weg também já têm projetos com 5G em conjunto com as fornecedoras de tecnologia Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei, Embratel, IBM e NTT, entre outras.
Vladímir Kozhévnikov, general director of the project, stated that the first manned flight to the new station is scheduled for 2028, using a rocket that will succeed the current Soyuz. Construction of the station's base module is expected to be completed in 2030, with two additional modules to be coupled over the following three years.
One of the significant challenges is managing the power requirements of the vehicles. Tesla vehicles, like most modern cars, have powerful computers and sensors that require a significant amount of energy to operate. The battery, which is the primary source of power, is typically charged from the grid using retail electricity rates. This means that the cost of powering a Tesla vehicle for computing tasks would be approximately the same as the cost of operating the vehicle for driving.
To put this into perspective, let's consider a rough estimate of the power consumption of a Tesla Model 3. According to various sources, the vehicle's onboard computer (ECU) consumes around 100-200 watts of power when idle. Assuming an average electricity cost of 12 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), this translates to around $3-6 per month in electricity costs for a single vehicle.
However, as the number of vehicles increases, the total power consumption would skyrocket, making it economically unfeasible. Moreover, the charging process itself would add additional power requirements, making it even more challenging to manage the energy consumption.
Another significant challenge is ensuring reliable connectivity and speed between the vehicles and the cloud or other computing resources. Tesla vehicles, like most modern cars, have limited Wi-Fi capabilities and are not designed for high-speed data transfer. Moreover, the vehicles are in constant motion, which would make it difficult to maintain stable and fast connections.
To achieve reliable connectivity, the vehicles would need to be parked or stationary for extended periods, which would require significant changes to the way people use their vehicles. Moreover, even if the vehicles were stationary, the speed of data transfer would be limited by the vehicle's onboard computer and the available bandwidth.
Scaling up the number of vehicles to create a large distributed computing platform would also pose significant challenges. As the number of vehicles increases, the power requirements would grow exponentially, making it difficult to manage and control. Moreover, the complexity of managing millions of vehicles would be substantial, requiring significant investments in software, hardware, and personnel.
Energy efficiency is another critical aspect to consider. Even if the vehicles were designed to optimize energy consumption, there are several factors that would reduce their efficiency:
Idle power consumption: As mentioned earlier, the vehicles' onboard computers consume power even when they're not in use.
Charging process: The charging process itself consumes significant amounts of energy, which would add to the overall power consumption.
Sensor and computer usage: The vehicles' sensors and computers require power to function, even when they're not actively processing data.
To address these challenges, researchers and engineers would need to develop new technologies and strategies to optimize energy efficiency, reduce power consumption, and improve connectivity and speed.
While the challenges are significant, there are potential solutions that could address them:
Advanced power management systems: Developing more efficient power management systems that can dynamically adjust power consumption based on the vehicle's status and the computing task at hand.
High-speed connectivity: Developing high-speed connectivity solutions that can maintain stable and fast connections between the vehicles and the cloud or other computing resources.
Energy-harvesting technologies: Developing energy-harvesting technologies that can convert the kinetic energy of the vehicles into electrical energy, reducing the need for traditional power sources.
Distributed computing architectures: Developing distributed computing architectures that can efficiently distribute computing tasks across multiple vehicles, reducing the power consumption and increasing the overall computing performance.
While the idea of using Tesla vehicles as a distributed computing platform is intriguing, it's essential to acknowledge the significant technical, economic, and practical challenges that come with it. Addressing these challenges would require significant investments in research and development, as well as collaboration between industry leaders, academia, and government agencies. However, if successful, such a platform could revolutionize the way we approach distributed computing, energy efficiency, and autonomous vehicles.

Polkadot is getting ready to shred! A similar formation was seen in $HIVE a few weeks ago which triggered a 30% pump almost immediately after breaking out. In both cases, a 30% pump is just the beginning. Both assets point to a continuation of bullish price action. However, a breakout is often retested and should be interpreted as a healthy sign rather than a weakness. #polkadot #cent #sapphirecrypto
When building passive income models, active and semi-passive models serve and enhance the apex model of authentic passive income models like staking. Another passive income idea that is entirely passive is delegation on the Hive blockchain. It’s simply a case of delegating and earning. In other words, these alternative income models are utilized to “feed” the authentic model. #cent #sapphirecrypto

Yup, that is more me than not. I was once accused of being mentally deficient because I am quiet. That was special. I was at a cookout at my friend's house. Never met the guy before that. He was so lucky that I have an infinite amount of self control and didn't know what a throat punch was at the time or couldn't throw one even if I did. And he wasn't worth the jail time anyway. 😂 😂

Nintendo is looking for 10,000 testers for a new Switch Online feature
Nintendo has posted a call for 10,000 testers who'll get first access to an unnamed, mysterious Switch Online feature. The whole posting is rather vague and offers no solid clues on what feature it's testing exactly, but only people who have an active Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership can participate in the "Playtest Program." Nintendo's $50-a-year Switch Online Expansion Pack adds Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis and Game Boy Advance games to the subscription service's games library. #technology #newsonleo
It also gives users free access to downloadable content for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Splatoon 2.
Testers must also be at at least 18 years old and must have an account registered in Japan, the US, the UK, France, Germany, Italy or Spain. Switch Online subscribers who want to participate can send in an application by scrolling to the bottom of Nintendo's announcement and clicking the "To Application Page" link.
The company will start accepting entries today, October 10, at 8AM PT/11AM ET, until November 5 at 4:59PM PT/7:59PM ET. Nintendo will choose participants in Japan through a raffle if it receives a lot of applications. Everyone else may want to hurry if they want to participate, because it'll be first come first serve for them. The company will also stop taking applications early if it quickly reaches the maximum number of participants.
Sony LinkBuds Fit and LinkBuds Open review: Two designs, one clear champ
Sony’s line of LinkBuds products has served two key purposes. First, it gave the company a playground to introduce wildly different designs like the donut-shaped first-gen LinkBuds.
It also allowed Sony to develop the LinkBuds S, a more traditional set that offered a taste of its flagship 1000X products for $100 less. That model was certainly more compelling than the company’s basic models that go for $120 and below.
Two people communicate in dreams: Inception movie-styled sci-fi turned into reality
Lucid dreams could unlock new dimensions of communication. Researchers at REMspace recently demonstrated that people can communicate in their dreams. Participants in REMspace's study were able to send and receive messages through a server that recorded their brain waves and other polysomnographic data during REM sleep. The company plans to release a device that accurately tracks all sleep stages for customers to view on a mobile app by 2025.

Have We Reached Peak Human Life Span?
While life expectancies have generally increased in the last few decades, the rate at which they are increasing is slowing down. This suggests that humans could be closing in on the limits of what's possible for average life span. The only thing that might radically lengthen life expectancy may be an intervention that slows the aging process itself, something some scientists are optimistic about.

SpaceX’s Starship test completes with a remarkable ‘chopstick’ booster catch
SpaceX's Super Heavy booster was caught by a launch tower using arms that the company has nicknamed the 'chopsticks' at the completion of Starship's fifth flight test yesterday. The remarkable catch was an important step towards making the Super Heavy booster a fully reusable launch system. Starship splashed down in the Indian Ocean a little over an hour after launch. A short clip of the booster being caught by the launch tower is available in the article.

The Morning After: This is Tesla’s robotaxi, the Cybercab
At Tesla’s We, Robot event at Warner Bros. Discovery’s studio in California, the company finally unveiled its robotaxi. The car is expected to go into production before 2027, but even Musk caveated that, saying he was “highly optimistic with timeframes.”
#technology #tesla
The Cybercab doesn’t have a steering wheel and, according to Elon Musk (so pinch of salt!), could be very cheap to run. The Tesla boss said the operating cost of the robotaxi would be 20 cents a mile, 30 to 40 cents with taxes. He also confirmed people can buy one and that Tesla expects to sell the Cybercab for below $30,000. He still, predictably, said something weird.
Musk said he envisions a future where people own several robotaxis and manage a fleet like shepherds. Huh?
The technology is a little different to most of its robotaxi competitors. Tesla has long dropped radars and sensors that other robotaxis, like Waymo’s, use extensively, instead going for cameras and AI object detection. There’s also no charging port, using inductive charging instead, so a completely different infrastructure is needed to keep these vehicles on the roads.
Not one to waste a big event, Musk also briefly introduced the Robovan — an autonomous van that can carry up to 20 people and transport goods, and he marched out a line of Optimus robots, which ended up serving drinks to attendees during the event.

Constellation Technologies & Operations wants to work with telecom operators to deliver 5G internet from space
The telecom industry is undergoing its greatest period of disruption since the telegraph
The telecom industry is undergoing its greatest period of disruption since the telegraph, as companies work to open up space as the next frontier for communications. French startup Constellation hopes to take part by repurposing 5G tech to provide a Starlink-like satellite broadband that uses telecoms’ existing assets.
#newsonleo #constellation #internet #space #telecom #5g
The Business Model
Constellation's business model is built around providing high-speed Internet access to users through a constellation of satellites in very low ⇪ orbit× (VLEO).
The company will work directly with telecom operators to provide this service, with the operators paying for the service and sharing the revenue with Constellation.
This approach is different from traditional satellite internet services, which often require users to pay for a satellite dish and internet service provider. Constellation's model is more similar to traditional telecom services, where the operator is responsible for providing the internet access and the user only pays for the service.
Terrestrial 5G Spectrum
Constellation plans to repurpose part of the 5G spectrum allocated to telecom operators on the ground for its space communications service. This spectrum can be used to provide cellular signals to and from orbit, reducing latency and increasing performance rates.
By using 5G spectrum, Constellation can integrate with the design of its user terminals and satellite payloads mass-produced, cheap components that are already being produced for terrestrial communication networks. This will help drive down costs and increase the scalability of its service.
Satellite Form Factor
Constellation's satellite form factor is designed to operate in VLEO, which is about 375 kilometers above the Earth's surface. This altitude allows for faster data transfer rates and lower latency compared to traditional geostationary satellites.
The satellite form factor is also designed to be more compact and efficient, reducing the cost of launching and maintaining the satellites. Constellation's satellites will be capable of transmitting and receiving data at speeds of up to 150 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink.
User Terminals
Constellation's user terminals will be designed to work with its satellite communications service, providing users with a cost-effective way to access high-speed internet. The terminals will be small, lightweight, and easy to use, making them accessible to a wide range of users.
The user terminals will also be designed to work with existing 5G networks, allowing users to switch seamlessly between their cellular and satellite internet connections. This will provide users with a reliable and fast internet connection, regardless of their location.
Launch Plans
Constellation has announced plans to launch a hosted payload to orbit by June 2025, which will carry out an end-to-end test of its service. The company will then launch two prototype satellites by the end of 2026, with the aim of deploying production satellites the following year.
The launch of the first satellite will mark a significant milestone in the development of Constellation's space-based internet connectivity solution. The company's plans for launching a constellation of 1,500 satellites to provide global coverage are ambitious, but the potential rewards are significant.
Partnerships and Investment
Constellation has secured a €9.3 million ($10.2 million) seed round to accelerate its plans, which will be used to fund the development and launch of its satellites. The company has also partnered with Expansion Fund, Bpifrance, and an unnamed investor to support its growth plans.
Constellation's partnerships and investment will help the company to scale its operations and develop its technology, providing a strong foundation for its future growth and success.
Competitive Landscape
Constellation is entering a crowded market, with several other companies developing space-based internet connectivity solutions. However, Constellation's focus on collaboration with telecom operators and its use of terrestrial 5G spectrum sets it apart from the competition.
Constellation's CEO, Charles Delfieux, has stated that the company's goal is to provide a telco-friendly solution that allows operators to monetize their 5G networks and compete effectively with new entrants like SpaceX and Amazon's Kuiper.
By working with telecom operators and leveraging their expertise, Constellation can provide a high-quality internet connectivity service that is tailored to the needs of the operator and their customers. This approach will help the company to differentiate itself from competitors and establish a strong market presence.
Challenges and Opportunities
Constellation's plans are ambitious, and the company will face several challenges in the coming years. These include developing and launching a constellation of satellites, integrating with telecom operators, and providing a reliable and fast internet connection to users.
However, the opportunities presented by Constellation's technology and business model are significant. The company has the potential to provide universal internet access to millions of people worldwide, which could have a profound impact on global development and economic growth.
Constellation's innovation and leadership in the space-based internet connectivity market could also create new opportunities for growth and investment, as the company establishes itself as a major player in the industry.

Very interesting about Cord Cutting 2.0. The first story so no need to watch to the entire video if you dont want.
Cord Cutting Trends: Cable Providers Face Challenges as Streaming Habits Evolve
The latest episode of "Cord Cutting Today" highlights several significant trends in the evolving landscape of television and Internet consumption. Host Luke Bouma breaks down key developments that are reshaping how consumers access entertainment and connectivity services.
Cable and Internet Provider Subscriber losses
According to recent reports, major cable providers like Comcast and Spectrum are expected to continue losing subscribers in the coming years. Industry analysts predict that cable internet providers could lose over 2 million subscribers in 2024 and an additional 1 million in 2025. This trend, dubbed "Cord Cutting 2.0," represents a shift beyond just canceling traditional TV services to also switching internet providers.
While some analysts anticipate a potential turnaround for cable companies by 2026 as they expand into rural markets, Bouma expresses skepticism about this projection. He believes the trend towards alternative internet options like 5G home internet and fiber will continue to challenge traditional cable providers.
Streaming service Subscriptions Decline
The survey conducted by Cord Cutters News reveals a significant shift in streaming service subscriptions. Key findings include:
This trend suggests that consumers are becoming more selective with their streaming subscriptions, potentially rotating services or opting for free, ad-supported alternatives.
Roku's market Dominance and Smart TV Growth
The survey also sheds light on the devices cord-cutters use:
Interestingly, Roku's dominance has slightly decreased compared to previous years, while smart TVs continue to gain market share.
New FCC Broadband Labels
The article mentions the recent implementation of FCC-mandated broadband "nutrition labels." These labels, now required for aLL U.S. internet providers, aim to increase transparency by clearly displaying information about average speeds, pricing, and fees in a format similar to food nutrition labels.
Conclusion
The cord-cutting landscape continues to evolve rapidly, with consumers becoming more discerning about their choices in both internet providers and streaming services. While traditional cable companies face challenges, new technologies and services are reshaping the market. As these trends develop, it remains to be seen how providers will adapt to changing consumer preferences and the increasing demand for flexibility and value in entertainment and connectivity options.
ServiceNow to invest $1.5 billion in the UK to localize AI data processing
American enterprise software giant ServiceNow says it plans to invest $1.5 billion in the U.K. over the next five years.
American enterprise software giant ServiceNow announced Monday it plans to invest $1.5 billion in the U.K. over the next five years, in a vote of confidence for Prime Minister Keir Starmer as he looks to attract foreign investment to the country.
#data #newsonleo #ai #technology #servicenow
In a significant move that underscores the United Kingdom's growing importance in the global tech landscape, ServiceNow, a leading cloud-based workflow management company, has announced a substantial £5.3 billion ($6.5 billion) investment in the country. This mammoth financial commitment is set to fuel the expansion of ServiceNow's UK operations and contribute to the nation's artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
The investment will primarily focus on three key areas: business expansion, AI development, and skills training. ServiceNow plans to increase its physical presence in the UK by acquiring new office space and growing its workforce beyond the current 1,000 employees. This expansion is expected to create numerous job opportunities and strengthen the company's foothold in the British market.
A significant portion of the investment will be directed towards enhancing the UK's AI infrastructure. ServiceNow intends to localize the processing of data for its large language models (LLMs) within the country. To achieve this, the company will deploy NVIDIA graphics processing units (GPUs) in its data centers located in London and Newport, Wales.
This move will enable the development of "domain-specific LLMs" tailored for UK clients and government entities, aligning with the growing call for AI "sovereignty" among European policymakers and regulators.
The concept of AI sovereignty emphasizes the importance of storing AI technologies and data within Europe, ensuring that these systems accurately reflect European culture and history. By investing in local data processing capabilities, ServiceNow is positioning itself at the forefront of this movement, potentially setting a precedent for other tech giants operating in the region.
In addition to infrastructure and business expansion, ServiceNow is committed to addressing the skills gap in the UK's tech sector. The company plans to introduce new skills programs that aim to reach 240,000 learners, contributing to the development of a highly skilled workforce capable of driving innovation in AI and related technologies.
Bill McDermott, ServiceNow's CEO, expressed enthusiasm about the investment, stating, "The United Kingdom is embracing technology transformation at scale. In this new age of AI, the country continues to be a global leader in driving innovation for the benefit of aLL its communities." He emphasized the company's goal of putting AI to work in a way that empowers people, enriches experiences, and strengthens societal bonds.
The timing of this announcement coincides with the International Investment Summit, where UK leader Keir Starmer is set to meet with 300 business leaders to encourage foreign investment. ServiceNow's commitment serves as a powerful endorsement of the UK's potential as a global hub for AI innovation and tech development.
ServiceNow's investment in the UK follows a trend of major tech companies recognizing the country's strategic importance. Earlier this year, Salesforce opened its first global AI center in London, part of a $4 billion investment plan announced in June of the previous year.
The tech firm's confidence in the UK market is reflected in its strong financial performance, with shares climbing over 37% this year, partly driven by the excitement surrounding AI. In the second quarter of 2024, ServiceNow reported earnings per share of $3.13 (excluding items) on $2.63 billion in revenue, exceeding analyst expectations.
As ServiceNow continues to innovate in the AI space, exemplified by the recent launch of its Xanadu platform featuring AI "agents" designed to boost worker productivity, this substantial investment in the UK positions the company to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of AI technology and its applications in Europe and beyond.

TikTok's Dark Secrets: Internal Documents Reveal App's Compulsive Design and Negative Mental Health Effects
A recent lawsuit filed by the Kentucky Attorney General's Office has shed light on the inner workings of TikTok, revealing a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. According to internal documents reviewed by NPR,
Hi, @taskmaster4450le,
This post has been voted on by @darkcloaks because you are an active member of the Darkcloaks gaming community.
Get started with Darkcloaks today, and follow us on Inleo for the latest updates.
TikTok's executives and employees knew that the app's features were designed to foster compulsive use, leading to a range of negative consequences, including loss of analytical skills, memory formation, and increased anxiety.
The documents reveal that TikTok's own research found a strong correlation between compulsive usage and negative mental health effects, including depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Despite this knowledge, the company has continued to design its app to be highly engaging, with features such as infinite scrolling, algorithm-driven content, and notifications that keep users hooked. This has led to a situation where young users, in particular, are spending excessive amounts of time on the app, often to the detriment of their mental and physical health.
The company's attempt to address concerns about compulsive use is its time-management tool, which sets a default limit of 60 minutes a day for app use. However, internal documents reveal that this tool is ineffective, with teens still spending an average of 107 minutes on the app even when it's switched on. The company's own research found that minors lack the executive function to control their screen time, making it difficult for them to stick to the recommended limits.
Furthermore, the documents reveal that TikTok is aware of the existence of "filter bubbles," which can lead users down a rabbit hole of negative content, including hate speech, disinformation, and harmful ideologies. Employees conducted internal studies, which found that they themselves became trapped in negative filter bubbles after following certain accounts. The company is also aware of content and accounts promoting disordered eating, self-harm, and other harmful behaviors, yet has failed to take adequate action to remove such content.
The documents also reveal that TikTok's moderation efforts have been inadequate, with underage girls on the app receiving "gifts" and "coins" in exchange for live stripping, and higher-ups in the company instructing moderators not to remove users reported to be under 13 years old unless their accounts explicitly stated that they were under 13. The company has also acknowledged that a substantial number of content violating its rules gets through its moderation techniques, including videos that normalize pedophilia and glorify minor sexual assault.
In response to the lawsuit, TikTok spokesman Alex Haurek defended the company, claiming that the Kentucky AG's complaint "cherry-picks misleading quotes and takes outdated documents out of context to misrepresent our commitment to community safety." Haurek also highlighted the company's "robust safeguards," including the removal of suspected underage users and the launch of safety features such as default screentime limits and family pairing.
However, the internal documents reviewed by NPR paint a disturbing picture of a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. As the lawsuit against TikTok continues to unfold, it is clear that the company has a long way to go in terms of addressing its complicity in the mental health crisis affecting young people today.
The revelations in the internal documents raise serious concerns about the impact of social media on young people's mental health and well-being. The fact that TikTok is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users, is a clear indication that the company is more concerned with its own profits than with the well-being of its users.
In conclusion, the internal documents reviewed by NPR reveal a company that is aware of its app's addictive nature and negative mental health effects, yet continues to prioritize its own interests over the well-being of its users. As the lawsuit against TikTok continues to unfold, it is clear that the company has a long way to go in terms of addressing its complicity in the mental health crisis affecting young people today.

Univ. of Washington unveils plans for lab space dedicated to battery innovation
Entrepreneurs and academics worldwide are trying to figure out how far innovation can stretch the power and performance of batteries.
Since 2017, the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds at the University of Washington have provided a space, tools and expertise to support that work for startups and university staff and students. Today the facility’s leaders are unveiling plans for an open-access lab that will allow researchers to validate their new technologies by incorporating them into custom-made pouch cell batteries.
#technology #battery #innovation
“A battery is a chemical system that is highly engineered so that all the parts work together,” said Dan Schwartz, founding director of the UW’s Clean Energy Institute, which includes the testbeds. “And the nation is really under-invested in that kind of engineering work.”
Here’s the challenge. Researchers often tackle one component of a battery’s system for optimization, such as the chemistry of an anode. But they need to demonstrate how their solution performs with the rest of the ingredients if they want to prove its benefits.
The new lab will provide that missing piece in the engineering infrastructure.
The facility will have a dry room and equipment for creating electrode slurries, coating electrodes, and layering the battery components. The batteries will be fabricated in plastic-lined aluminum pouches that bear a resemblance to a Pop Tart package.
While useful for experiments, the pouch cell batteries also have commercial applications in electric vehicles and consumer electronics. Schwartz said there’s growing demand for the pouch cell batteries from heavy trucking and aviation.

Techno Optimism, Explained
#technology
In a recent video, Y Combinator (YC) partners Dalton Caldwell and Michael Seibel discuss their optimistic outlook on the future, despite being immersed in an environment where startup failures are commonplace. As early-stage investors, they witness numerous startups faltering daily and are well-acquainted with the challenges of building successful companies. However, their perspective on technological progress and societal advancement remains overwhelmingly positive.
The Importance of Perspective
Caldwell and Seibel emphasize that maintaining a broad, historical perspective is crucial to recognizing the tremendous progress that has occurred in recent decades. They argue that young people's pessimism about the future is misplaced, largely due to the constant barrage of negative news, especially surrounding technology.
To illustrate their point, they compare various aspects of life today to the 1990s, highlighting significant improvements:
Information Access: From CD-ROM encyclopedias to the vast, free resources available online today, including YouTube's extensive video library.
Communications: The Evolution from single landlines to multiple free messaging and calling apps, enabling global communication at no cost.
Transportation: The advent of ride-sharing services, GPS navigation, and the increasing prevalence of self-driving technology.
Healthcare: Increased life expectancy, improved infant mortality rates, and better overall quality of life globally.
Entertainment: The availability of virtually aLL human creative content at one's fingertips, often for free.
Renewable energy: The transition of solar power from a futuristic concept to an economically viable and widely adopted energy source.
Space Technology: Dramatic reductions in the cost of putting objects into orbit, opening up new possibilities for space exploration and utilization.
Reasons for Pessimism
Despite these advancements, the partners acknowledge several factors contributing to widespread pessimism:
Lack of Perspective: It's challenging to recognize progress when immersed in day-to-day life and constant news cycles.
Polarization: Technological advancements often become entangled in political and tribal debates, obscuring their overall positive impact.
Unrealistic Expectations: The desire for progress without any downsides is unrealistic and childish, failing to acknowledge necessary trade-offs.
Inconsistent Pacing: Innovation occurs unevenly across different sectors, leading to frustration when certain areas lag behind.
Problem Fixation: The tendency to focus on unsolved problems rather than celebrating achievements can lead to a negative outlook.
The Importance of Optimism
Caldwell and Seibel argue that optimism is not just a feel-good attitude but a crucial driver of progress. They point out that history's great changemakers and social critics were fundamentally optimistic, believing that their efforts could make a difference. This optimism fueled their willingness to invest time and energy into solving problems and driving change.
Looking to the Future
The partners express excitement about the world their children will inherit, anticipating further advancements in areas like transportation (e.g., the possibility of reaching Tokyo in 45 minutes) and space technology. They encourage viewers to embrace optimism as a tool for creating positive change and warn against the allure of cynicism and inaction.
Conclusion
While acknowledging the very real challenges and failures they encounter in their work with startups, Caldwell and Seibel maintain a decidedly optimistic view of the future. They argue that by maintaining perspective, recognizing progress, and embracing an optimistic outlook, individuals can contribute to creating a better future. Their message serves as a counterpoint to prevailing pessimism and encourages engagement with the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.

NASA mission will study habitability of Jupiter's moon
Treated as one of the American space agency's flagship missions, it cost US$5.2 billion - expensive even by the standards of this type of mission (Perseverance, for example, cost US$2.75 billion).
#newsonleo #space #nasa
NASA expects to launch this Monday (14) its most important interplanetary robotic mission since the departure of the Mars rover Perseverance in 2020. The Europa Clipper mission will aim to determine the potential habitability of the most famous and intriguing of Jupiter's moons, Europe.
To be launched now by a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, it will only reach the vicinity of Jupiter in April 2030. Along the way, the spacecraft will fly over Mars (in February 2025 ) and Earth (in December 2026), to put itself at the right speed and trajectory to enter Jupiter's orbit and begin a mission that foresees at least 49 close flybys of Europa.
Clipper is expected to become the third spacecraft in history to enter orbit around Jupiter, after Galileo (1995) and Juno (2016), both from NASA. The European Juice was launched earlier (2023), but will make its orbital insertion later (2031), thus becoming the fourth Jovian orbiter.
With its 22-meter solar panels, the six-ton probe (including onboard fuel) will generate 600 watts to operate its nine instruments, even though it is five times further from the Sun than Earth. The idea is to use its cameras, spectrometers, radar and radio system to carry out a detailed examination of Europa, including investigating the configuration of the liquid water ocean that hides beneath the moon's ice crust.
Discovered by Galileo Galilei in 1610, it is about 3,120 km in diameter, slightly smaller than the Earth's Moon (3,475 km). But the most bombastic revelation about it came with the mission that paid homage to the famous Italian astronomer, Galileo, which indicated the presence of the internal ocean, possibly in contact with a rocky bed with hydrothermal vents.
On Earth, these appear to have been the circumstances that led to the emergence of life. Whether something similar could have happened in Europa is unknown, but the idea of European life forms has already been established in science fiction at least since the book "2010: A Space Odyssey 2", by Arthur C. Clarke, from 1982. (and made into a film in 1984). Clipper Europe, however, will be more focused on facts than fiction.
The initiative does not have the stated objective of finding European life, but it will attempt to characterize the subsurface ocean and its contents in detail, confirming its habitability. One of the most exciting prospects is the study of water plumes that can be ejected through cracks in the ice crust, being exposed to space. Clipper will try to fly over them, similar to what the Cassini probe did with Saturn's icy moon Enceladus between 2005 and 2015 - another potential habitable environment (at least for microorganisms) in the Solar System.
Clipper's task, however, is more challenging. The environment around Europa is bathed in an intense radiation belt generated by Jupiter's magnetic field, which forced NASA to adopt a "come and run" strategy, with rapid sequential flybys, during laps around Jupiter, in instead of a stop in orbit around the moon.
The effort required the spacecraft to be designed with titanium and aluminum reinforcements to protect the electronics against radiation. And even then there will be no lack of emotion. In the final phase of preparation for launch, it was discovered that transistors similar to those on board, made to withstand the hostile environment around Europa, were failing in less severe radiation conditions.
For four months, NASA carried out exhaustive tests of these components and their functioning together. If it was necessary to change them, the mission would have to be postponed. But, at the beginning of September, the agency announced that it had a safety margin in all circuits involved to successfully carry out the mission. The launch schedule and the expectation that the spacecraft can operate for around four years in orbit around Jupiter, as planned, were maintained.
As a result, the launch could take place from this Monday (14), but with some safety margin, in a window that extends until the beginning of November.

Europa Clipper: One of NASA's most relevant missions will be launched today
The Falcon Heavy rocket, which will carry the Europa Clipper probe, will be launched from the Kennedy Space Center, in Florida, USA. The event can be followed live on NASA's YouTube channel. The transmission starts at 4pm, with take-off scheduled for shortly after 5pm (Lisbon time).

The Europa Clipper mission aims to study the moon Europa, one of Jupiter's largest moons, in detail. The probe is scheduled to reach the moon in 2030. With an estimated cost of around 4.57 billion euros, the mission seeks to understand more about the surface of Europa, which, millions of years ago, may have had favorable conditions for the emergence of life forms.
"Se pensarmos em toda a água que existe na Terra e a duplicarmos, essa é a quantidade de água que acreditamos existir em Europa", explicou Caroline Harper, chefe de ciência espacial da Agência Espacial do Reino Unido, ao The Guardian. "A água é essencial para a vida, como a conhecemos, e, se quisermos encontrar vida em outro lugar do Sistema Solar, é muito provável que esteja em uma lua gelada como esta. A missão Europa Clipper investigará se Europa é um local habitável e capaz de sustentar vida no vasto oceano sob sua superfície gelada."
"É entusiasmante pensar que, na próxima década, poderemos ter provas científicas definitivas do potencial de mundos habitáveis além do nosso planeta", acrescentou Harper.
Cyber Attack
'Pokémon' producer was the target of cyber attack and data theft
According to the website IGN, Game Freak confirmed that the attack took place in August 2024. Hackers illegally accessed the company's server, obtaining the names and emails of 2,606 employees, both current and former.
#newsonleo #cyberattack #game
Additionally, the leak revealed that the codename for Nintendo's next console is "Ounce" and that the next generation of 'Pokémon' games is internally called "Gaia." These new games are believed to be being developed for the successor to the Switch console.
5G
With an eye on 5G expansion, Ericsson will have a new company in Brazil in 2025
A Ericsson, multinacional sueca que acaba de completar 100 anos de atuação no Brasil, abrirá em 2025 uma nova empresa no País, e a indicação é de que o negócio terá atuação totalmente voltada para a oferta de produtos e serviços para redes privativas. O segmento é uma das maiores apostas da indústria de telecomunicações para ampliar suas fontes de receitas.
#newsonleo #technology #5g
"O seu objetivo aqui será implementar um modelo de mercado capaz de suprir as operadoras em casos de usos específicos de redes", disse o presidente da Ericsson para o Cone Sul da América Latina, Rodrigo Dienstmann.
As redes privativas são redes de internet que atendem a demandas customizadas de empresas, como atividades dentro de fábricas, exploração de minas, logística de transportes, agropecuária, entre outros setores produtivos. Essas operações têm necessidades particulares, como a cobertura de internet em áreas extensas ou a segurança reforçada contra interrupção do sinal. Por esse motivo, as empresas contratam equipamentos e serviços sob demanda.
+A previsão de especialistas é de um impulso no mercado de redes privativas ao redor do mundo nos próximos anos, uma vez que a chegada do sinal 5G permite conexões mais rápidas e com menor tempo de resposta entre os dispositivos - características fundamentais para uso de drones, veículos e robôs industriais.
A Ericsson já trabalha com redes privativas no Brasil. A empresa forneceu, por exemplo, os equipamentos para a rede privativa 5G da Nestlé, em Caçapava (SP), em um projeto que também envolveu a Embratel.
NOVOS NEGÓCIOS. Segundo Dienstmann, a chegada da EEWS ao Brasil permitirá uma atuação mais focada no segmento. "O negócio tradicional da Ericsson é de grandes contratos de fornecimento de equipamentos para as operadoras, com valores na faixa de centenas de milhões de dólares. Já o novo negócio terá um número muito maior de contratos, espalhados em várias operações, embora com valor individual menor", disse o executivo.
Dienstmann acrescentou que o grupo reforçará a prospecção de novos negócios, o que será feito em parceria com as operadoras de internet. O objetivo é desenvolver soluções específicas para as atividades dos setores produtivos.
O executivo acrescentou que o maior desafio de crescimento para esses mercados ainda é a oferta de dispositivos industriais que já captem o sinal da tecnologia 5G, mas ele acredita que isso tende a mudar pouco a pouco. "No mundo, as redes privadas estão no começo do ciclo. Esse mercado está em desenvolvimento."
No Brasil, corporações como Gerdau, Stellantis e Weg também já têm projetos com 5G em conjunto com as fornecedoras de tecnologia Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei, Embratel, IBM e NTT, entre outras.
Russia
Russia wants to start building space station in 2027
Vladímir Kozhévnikov, general director of the project, stated that the first manned flight to the new station is scheduled for 2028, using a rocket that will succeed the current Soyuz. Construction of the station's base module is expected to be completed in 2030, with two additional modules to be coupled over the following three years.

Inference Is The Next Big Bottleneck For AI
‘That’s 100 gigawatts of inference compute, distributed all around the world,’ Musk said.
#tesla #ai #computing #inference
Power Management:
One of the significant challenges is managing the power requirements of the vehicles. Tesla vehicles, like most modern cars, have powerful computers and sensors that require a significant amount of energy to operate. The battery, which is the primary source of power, is typically charged from the grid using retail electricity rates. This means that the cost of powering a Tesla vehicle for computing tasks would be approximately the same as the cost of operating the vehicle for driving.
To put this into perspective, let's consider a rough estimate of the power consumption of a Tesla Model 3. According to various sources, the vehicle's onboard computer (ECU) consumes around 100-200 watts of power when idle. Assuming an average electricity cost of 12 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh), this translates to around $3-6 per month in electricity costs for a single vehicle.
However, as the number of vehicles increases, the total power consumption would skyrocket, making it economically unfeasible. Moreover, the charging process itself would add additional power requirements, making it even more challenging to manage the energy consumption.
Connectivity and Speed:
Another significant challenge is ensuring reliable connectivity and speed between the vehicles and the cloud or other computing resources. Tesla vehicles, like most modern cars, have limited Wi-Fi capabilities and are not designed for high-speed data transfer. Moreover, the vehicles are in constant motion, which would make it difficult to maintain stable and fast connections.
To achieve reliable connectivity, the vehicles would need to be parked or stationary for extended periods, which would require significant changes to the way people use their vehicles. Moreover, even if the vehicles were stationary, the speed of data transfer would be limited by the vehicle's onboard computer and the available bandwidth.
Scalability:
Scaling up the number of vehicles to create a large distributed computing platform would also pose significant challenges. As the number of vehicles increases, the power requirements would grow exponentially, making it difficult to manage and control. Moreover, the complexity of managing millions of vehicles would be substantial, requiring significant investments in software, hardware, and personnel.
Energy Efficiency:
Energy efficiency is another critical aspect to consider. Even if the vehicles were designed to optimize energy consumption, there are several factors that would reduce their efficiency:
To address these challenges, researchers and engineers would need to develop new technologies and strategies to optimize energy efficiency, reduce power consumption, and improve connectivity and speed.
Potential Solutions:
While the challenges are significant, there are potential solutions that could address them:
Conclusion:
While the idea of using Tesla vehicles as a distributed computing platform is intriguing, it's essential to acknowledge the significant technical, economic, and practical challenges that come with it. Addressing these challenges would require significant investments in research and development, as well as collaboration between industry leaders, academia, and government agencies. However, if successful, such a platform could revolutionize the way we approach distributed computing, energy efficiency, and autonomous vehicles.
