Software Update: Wine 7.1.44 – Tweakers

The “internet explorer” in Wine is not based on MSHTML but on Gecko (Mozilla). Not that there are no security problems it can be natural.

You will not easily suffer a rootkit or other kind of nasty malware in Wine, because that simply will not work, but you are indeed not immune to security problems.

If you want to do it safely, you ensure that everything within Wine as a separate Linux user running, which only has write access to its own homedir, and furthermore only has access to the necessary.
Should you only as worries documentjes you end up in the right place.
I think this is incidentally a bit exaggerated, but when you work with software that is known to be unsafe, it is perhaps worth.

Software Update: 4:18 Sandboxie – Tweakers

I often use Sandboxie to start business or to open that come from suspect sources (Usenet, torrents, …).
Previously already several times had unpleasant surprises, now I sleep much better with Sandboxie on my PC.
This gives me an extra layer of protection and it is unlikely that there is malware on my system is spread by unknown programs because they run in their own environment.

Highly recommended.
also useful for people who clicks on everything that moves on the Internet with the result that full PC toolbars and spyware is.
Just boot browser through Sandboxie and as browser all changes will be reset so that it closed at next browser restart it again is pristine clean.

Social software in the workplace prevents brain drain – Executives Online

\” Maybe digitally, but no memory \

May 28, 2015 – Whenever change a feature of employee or leaves the organization, the company’s memory will be reset. This brain drain has never been mapped so far, but plays continuously in any organization.

And that is not only expensive and time consuming, but also ironic. On the one hand, we always work digital. On the other hand, we fail to document processes and decisions so that we do not make the same mistakes. Social software in the workplace appears to be very suitable for this, identifies Protime.
 
Reorganizations
 Reorganizations are rife, as announced last week by the Tax Office. According to the plans to take about 5,000 employees left the foreseeable future. Or they rotate from one department to another. Every manager knows that there is a high risk that much knowledge is lost when employees leave. “The assurance of processes and decisions is very important. Otherwise, you may continue to invent the hot water,” says managing partner Darek Sikorski Protime.
 
Conversations
 The transfer of work from one employee to another rattling in many organizations. Thus, the previous employee often left as the new takes office. When restructuring proceeds flow and outflow usually a little more hectic. In addition, IT departments close relatively quickly mailboxes, local hard disks and digital agendas. The result can guess. Sikorski:. “Many conversations , documents, contacts and appointments are lost forever Whether companies keep old mailboxes still somewhere on a server In all reality, it is far from practical nor working.. Information for newcomers or laggards find literally back. “

 Insufficient innovative
 “Why do certain work to be done in a certain way, it is no longer possible after a cleanup. And vice versa, when members of the old guard on the basis of experience to conclude” that something is not working, “then they are for new employees soon enough innovative. For example, information about past decisions or specific processes can help. If the information is actually still exists within the organization, it can not unlock it in many cases. ” According to Sikorski, this problem recognizes in many organizations, but a solution is not easy.
 
Brain drain
 The creed also seems that prevention is better than cure. To-use document management systems can play a role. That, however, requires clear internal arrangements, and especially have the discipline to carry out this consistent. There has lacked in many organizations. Moreover, will not prevent team members through a deluge of e-mail to communicate with each other. Sikorski thinks that it should be simpler. “Many social software in the workplace are conversations between team place in the online project environment. There are also working arrangements, documents, schedules, contacts, to-do lists and shared states. The departure of a team member does not automatically lead to a brain drain , the information in the Project cream , after all preserved As projects are better documented, new team members quickly familiarize “

‘Blocking software allowed ads “- Financieele Dagblad (Registration)

Makers of software that can block ads in Germany have won a victory in court, according to the Financial Times. Such software is not illegal, was the verdict of the court.

That ruling could have far-reaching implications for big Internet companies like Google, which receive the bulk of their revenue from online advertising. Even major telecommunications companies in Europe have already indicated that they still consider this year to put a blockade on ads on their networks.

The case against software makers like Adblock filed by the German media companies RTL and ProSiebenSat.1. The German court was, however, nothing about it makes to the software. Internet users can decide whether to use the software, so there is no unfair competition.

In addition, there is no question of a monopoly of the software makers because its popularity is determined by the market, so the British newspaper quotes the court in Munich.

IBM software detects “customers pain ‘- Customer First

The new solution from IBM adds an emotional textual analysis to customer contacts, which it ignores the existing customer interaction with chatbots. “Our goal is to at least reach such a good customer satisfaction with this software as is achieved with human intervention,” says David Konopnicki, project manager of the Information Retrieval Group at IBM Research in Israel, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Emojis
The novelty is capable of words, grammar and context analysis of conversations. It also looks at the frequent use of exclamation marks, capital letters, emojis and abbreviations like LOL (laughing out loud, ed.). The typing speed is also being studied. If during a software analysis show that contact with a human customer service representative is desired, the program takes care of this automatically. This may be necessary because people are generally better at calming customers than chatbots, says IBM.

“Our goal is not a complete automation and replacement of people, but to make the computerized emotional ‘ emphasizes Jonathan Batty, a spokesman for IBM Global Labs. Intention of the technology is to be rolled out in June prototypes of the software to a number of customers.

Empathic virtual buddy
Dutch Janneke van der Zwaan, researcher at TU Delft, took over a year ago research on the realization of an empathetic chatbot. This solution answers to the name Robin.

Standardisation software municipalities could take years – Internal Administration

Two hundred suppliers
393 municipalities currently use software products from two hundred different suppliers. There’s municipalities agreed that the various software products from different vendors to communicate with one another, so that the quality of service is improving and can be saved. More and more municipalities and suppliers work with standardized software, according to Data Monitor. But the speed of adoption by standard differs greatly. Some parts are difficult.

Difficult adoptions
So meets the standard for Wabo-BAG yet none of the sixteen assessed products. The Standard Pay and recovery is not much better for it: only 3 of the 31 products meet. When standards Ongoing My Government Affairs and Message box, where suppliers are assessed, meets 13 percent in September 2014, where the figure is 40 percent in April 2015. The pace of increase, however, is decreasing. In Prefill e-Forms Services investigated a total of 25 products. In January 2015 fulfilled 6 products (29 percent) and in April 2015 there were 8 (32 percent).

Quick adoptions

There are also standards that are adopted quickly. There is a large increase in congregations that meet in Case Document Services. In September 2014, 41 percent of products in April 2015 compliant and meets 75 percent of the 24 products examined. The Standards Document Creation Services are 17 products analyzed, it met in January 2015 about 33 percent and 56 percent in April 2015. The new standards, which for the first time in the report that appears recorded quarterly shows 42 percent of the standard ‘iWmo for municipalities’ meet. In “IJW municipalities” is that forty percent and “StUF Corvi ‘is 59 percent compliant.

Causes
Monitor shows a gradual development, write the rapporteurs. Yet many municipalities use software that does not meet the standards. It may take according to the Monitor Compiancy 1 to 2 years before the classical standards like Business Document Services and Ongoing My Government Affairs / Message box to meet. “One of the possible reasons is the fact that the demand for compliant products lags behind initial expectations. Partly this has to do with the missing replacement for municipalities and possibly with unfamiliarity with the same communities with the content of the standards.

Millions spent on additional administrative costs

Minister Plasterk recently announced that he “let more analysis’ whether it is true that the municipalities millions more spent on administration by decentralizations. Looks or simplifying information flows is also possible. A project of VNG estimated during an Internal Administration debate that there are 100 to 150 million euro for administrative costs incurred. He called for “standardized as soon as possible.

IBM is developing software that detects emotion in chat conversation – NU.nl

That IBM reported versus Wall Street Journal . The company wants that big companies can cut through the software in the cost of customer service.

The software can be used to recognize basic emotions in automated online chat services, tweets or emails. IBM must separate programming software for these textual variants, as there are other emotions are expressed.

Companies often put automated chat services like customer service. Such a service then uses a name that is similar to that of an existing person, whereas it is actually spoken with a robot. IBM indicates that the software adds an emotional breakdown at this kind of chats.

“Our goal is to be achieved at least achieve customer satisfaction as well as with human intervention,” explains David Konopnicki. Konopnicki leads the project in the past year in Israel working on.

Analysis

The software analyzes data standard as the words, grammatical style and context of the conversation. It also looks at it as the Internet language using many exclamation marks and capital letters, emoji and abbreviations as LOL .

In addition, the software analyzes how quickly typed it. And the analysis shows that there is contact with a human customer service representative is desired, the program takes care of this automatically. According to IBM, is necessary because a person is often better at calming customers.

Voice

IBM wants the software ultimately make it suitable for calling. Then more data needs to be processed, for example, how often was contact there.

IBM indicates that the software for the time being does not aim to replace human employees. The technology group will roll out in June prototypes of the software to a number of customers

NASA improved autofocus Mars rover Curiosity via software update – Tweakers

NASA has managed to provide the Curiosity rover currently on Mars clocking of improved software. This trolley can be camera for chemical analysis of materials focusing better.

NASA confirmed the successful software update on his website. Curiosity has a device, the so-called ChemCam, aboard which the chemical composition of the materials can be analyzed. It works with a laser which is to be focused on the material to be analyzed. According to NASA worked the software automatically ‘focus’ is not quite right, so decided to create new software.

what an over-the-space’ update can be called, the software Curiosity renewed. That operation proved successful: the ChemCam can now also select the best focus distance and on this basis to generate data for chemical analysis. Also the photos taken by Curiosity improved according to NASA with the new software. That does Curiosity by first taking a number of focus distances than to select the one that provides the best focus.

This may be somewhat cumbersome work-around is needed because the original autofocus method of the Mars rover not longer working. Initially this was a special laser available that could measure the distance to the object, but this ‘rangefinder’ broke down. NASA had to invent something else.

Curiosity does research on the Martian surface to find out whether there are traces of life. Late last year, building blocks found which indicate that there have been possible life forms in the past, although there is still no concrete evidence

Payment youth falters by software, fewer children in treatment – nrc.nl

Youth aider in conversation with a girl. ANP / Roos Koole

Interior

Nearly half of the independent psychologists and psychotherapists in the Netherlands receives the treatment of children by declaration problems are not reimbursed by municipalities. So says the national umbrella organization of independent psychologists and psychotherapists LVVP in NRC Handelsblad .

These psychologists – often eenpitters, some four hundred in number – Removing therefore on reserves: no fee does not pay for them. Some vrijgevestigden therefore focus more on the treatment of adults. That is financially secure because they are covered by the ‘old regime’ of the insurer. The waiting list for children will walk on.

Municipalities not properly connected system

Youth falling since January 1 this year to municipalities. Youth Psychologists have since been doing business with a multitude of municipalities. But the business is technically often spoke in some regions is the “software” of psychologists and municipalities are not well “tuned” to each other. In other regions, such as in Amsterdam, municipalities are not “connected” to the appropriate billing system.

The result is that virtually no account of vrijgevestigden about 2015 in the Amsterdam region is considered. The municipality speaks of a “technical problem” that “this week” will be solved. If vrijgevestigden report says a church spokesman, “we report that it is possible to invoice by mail or through the mail.”

Only even adults

are

As a result of the declaration perils vrijgevestigden more cautious about adopting children. Jos Haart Mans, a clinical psychologist in the South Limburg region, treated last year “twenty-five to thirty children.” Now he only treats adults.

“Otherwise course I do not get paid on time the risk.”

takes Haart Mans “as an experiment” in June For the first time this year a child in treatment, to find out whether his claims – submitted on paper, sent by post – will be paid by the municipality. The Association of Dutch Municipalities (VNG) says to recognize the “signs” but has “no visibility” to “scale”.

“The VNG is in talks with local authorities and the umbrella organization of the vrijgevestigden.”

Interpol identifies victims with software Nijmegen – Omroep Gelderland

Interpol identifies victims with software Nijmegen

NIJMEGEN – The international police organization Interpol will use Nijmegen software for the identification of victims and missing persons . This week the contract signed between Interpol and the company Smart Research, a spin-off of the Radboud University.

The company developed the software together with the Dutch Forensic Institute NFI. The contract has a provisional term of 5 years. The first contacts between Nijmegen and Interpol were laid two years ago.

The Nijmegen based company developed the so-called Bonaparte software initially for the identification of victims of major disasters. The program can also be used for familial testing and identification of missing persons, according to the university.

The program calculates rapidly the probability of a relationship between DNA profiles of victims and possible relatives.

Name thanks to Napoleon

The program was named Bonaparte Napoeon because it was there in his time made sure that everyone got a name; the program does the same.

Bonaparte was used in the past by the NFI in the identification of the victims of the airplane disaster in Tripoli (2010) and Ukraine MH17 (2014). Is also using the software resolved the lingering case of the murder of Marianne Vaatstra and could be caught in Utrecht serial molester in 2014. Also at the idenitificatie of anonymous burial of victims of the flood of 1953, the program is used.

Hundreds of thousands of DNA profiles

Next month, employees get from the Nijmegen business link the software to the hundreds of thousands of DNA profiles in the database of Interpol in Lyon. Then it goes through Bonaparte help police in European countries in the identification of missing persons.

Software is also at Bitcoin always political – Financieele Dagblad (Registration)

The Trade billion in digital currency Bitcoin shines often on front pages.

Still, no one has realized that there is currently a power struggle raging around Bitcoin. At stake is our faith in Bitcoins

basic ideal: a coin of computer code, which prevents unnecessary and a central bank. A small technical debate late now painfully clear that the future of Bitcoin in the hands of just five people, “Bitcoin Core Developers. And while Bitcoin central management and nepotism wanted to end properly. The outcome of the power struggle will determine whether can break if Bitcoin digital currency of the future.

The dream to generate a digital currency of computer code – and thus to break free from the hierarchical financial system – has been around for decades. Yet Bitcoin is the first initiative valued by the general public. Regardless of the media hype surrounding underground market places like Silk Road, the potency of Bitcoin I only saw when I worked last year in the US. Some colleagues paid virtually anything with bitcoins.

From restaurants, supermarkets and taxis to webshops and even eBay, PayPal and the Nasdaq will participate . Nobody wants to lose the future battle crucial consumers.

Bitcoin is popular because the application software written for the most brilliant ever. With ingenious encryption, the software checks first if a payer really about Bitcoin has, then executes the transaction pass through and still guarantees anonymity for transmitter and receiver. Without the intervention of a bank. The software and transactions are open source – publicly published – so that everyone can check its integrity. For most users, Bitcoins technology abracadabra, but which provides sufficient transparency, confidence in the currency.

A small technical discussion is now flared to a heated feud. The subject of debate is the “Block chain, the brilliant public log that ensures Bitcoins remain unique and knocking transactions. This log renews itself six times per hour through a file (block) with all new Bitcoin transactions to the log chain (chain) to add. Thus, counterfeiting cryptographically excluded. The maximum size of a block is ever made just 1 megabyte. With the explosion of transactions, the log should be extended to allow more transactions per 10 minutes.

This increases the System requirements for the Bitcoin network increases exponentially. That may mean that Bitcoin to properly supply with expensive computers and fast Internet (ie, from the wealthy West). And here’s the rub: who determines the balance between more transactions, costs, equal accession and safety? To date, the five developers determined the technical direction itself. Sometimes based on input from the outside, sometimes not. Now that the outside world sees suddenly that two of the five Bitcoinbazen since 2013 in the clinch. One wants a new software create the log much larger. The other sees it as controlling ‘higher up’ and will not be in line with Bitcoins ideal base. Two years nothing the deadlock happened and threatens to cease the growth of Bitcoin.

The five holy believe that they alone check the software. They do not see that she is already doing politics since Bitcoin. You see very often in internet policy pioneers are averse to government and claim that their technology is apolitical. A basic fallacy: software is always political. Each software implements a political interests. Due to a technical debatje now come to light how Bitcoins decision is shrouded in mystery.

The decision to vote for an open encounter meanwhile on emotional resistance: no politics in Bitcoin! The five Bitcoinbazen should not obscure their power, but quickly acknowledge that they have become a political body and an open design decision. With supervision and safety valves against corrupting power. Especially when there are billions of dollars at stake. Each currency, Bitcoin also stands or falls with confidence. With popularity comes adult responsibilities. Only if the Bitcoin developers alongside their software make their decisions transparent, Bitcoin can break final.
