Belarus gives letters technology – euronews

“Belarus has no resources. We do not have oil or gas, or metals. Therefore, we would necessarily have to bet on brainpower, education, the capabilities of people.”

a lot of people still see Belarus as a country that stood in the Soviet era. But the reality, at least when it comes to technologies, could not be further from prejudice. In fact, the country is at the forefront in this field, and one of those responsible is the World of Tanks, one of the most popular computer games in the world. The adventure began with friends in a kitchen in Minsk.

“Even in the testing phase, the flow of players was huge. We knew that the project would succeed, but no one was waiting for both, “says Kirill Stadnik, one of the creators of the game. Stadnik also says that the technology sector is the least dependent on external factors such as political, since the borders practically do not exist.

Unlike other companies in the sector, Wargaming, the creator of World of Tanks , maintains headquarters in Belarus, more specifically a technology park in Minsk. Valery Tsepkalo directs this center and explains: “Belarus has no resources. We do not have oil or gas, or metal. Therefore, we would necessarily have to bet on brainpower, education, the capabilities of people. Above all, young people. “

It was also of Belarus who came as the creators of popular applications such as” Viber “.https: //www.viber.com/ or MSQRD . Despite this “boom” technology, the economy continues to suffer. The GDP fell 4% in the first two months of this year.

Next Clio will have hybrid technology – AutoPortal

The technology “Hybrid Assist” which will be released already in 2017 the Renault Mégane and Scénic, should be extended to other models, including the Clio. The goal? Reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

Speaking to AutoExpress, the vice president of Renault, Bruno Ancelin, said that hybrid technology will reach the most accessible said models.

“we want an affordable electrification process, which means to give our customers just enough to reduce CO2 emissions” , referring to “Hybrid Assist” technology.

The system takes advantage of the energy wasted in deceleration and braking to charge a battery of 48 volts. The energy is then used to assist the combustion engine.

The operation is similar to the energy recovery system used in Formula 1 and will be associated, at least initially, the engine 1.5 dCi 110hp.

The Renault Mégane advances the Hybrid Assist will have an approved NEDC consumption cycle in less than 3.1 liters to one hundred and CO2 emissions of 76g / km.

On the other hand , Ancelin ensures that the next Clio will not be a plug-in hybrid model. “There is no need to develop PHEV technology in compact cars, the costs are too high” explained.

Still, the models of the top segments may adopt alternative powertrains, “depending on future regulations for diesel”

Image caption species population was reduced by 90% in certain areas

Scientists will use the same technology applied to smartphones to investigate the decline of the seal population in the archipelago of Orkney, off the coast of Scotland.

the Marine Mammal Research Unit at the University of St. Andrews will analyze for three years the data collected by means of telemetry tags.

These labels are attached to the hair on the back of the head of animals and, according to scientists, they are harmless and light and that will drop away after a while.

also applied to cars, cardiac monitoring equipment and other smart devices, the technology will be used to collect data on the behavior of seals, their habits and location, as well as information about their habitat.

the study was prepared at the request of the Scottish government and Scottish Natural Heritage, who are concerned about the survival of the species living in the regions of the country bays.

This is one of two species of UK seals, and its population was reduced by up to 90% in certain areas of the north and east coasts, including Orkney, from 2000.

“this exciting collaborative study is vital to help us understand what makes this population of seals living in the Scottish bays to change and re-evaluate the options for their conservation and management,” he says John Baxter, director of the Scottish Natural Heritage.

Bernie McConnell, the University of St. Andrews, adds that in assessing the causes of this decline, you can look for ways to mitigate it and “prioritize research that will be made on the subject in the future. “

Commission will evaluate investments in science and technology – News Portal of the Federal Senate

The incentive funds to scientific and technological development will be evaluated by the Commission of Science, Technology, Innovation, Communication and Informatics (CCT) during the year 2016. The application electing this public policy for the evaluation of the CCT was approved on Tuesday (29) by the Board.

the author of the request, Senator Aloysio Nunes (PSDB-SP), justified the choice by concern that the collection of funds that encourage scientific and technological development is not being applied effectively in the area. Currently there are two funds for scientific and technological development:. The National Fund for Scientific and Technological Development (FNDCT) and the Fund for the Technological Development of Telecommunications (Funttel)

“The aforementioned funds have raised annually almost R $ 5.1 billion. However, a significant portion of these resources has not been effectively applied, damaging the potential of this important policy, “Aloysio stated in the application.

The senators act in the evaluation of public policies in the country since 2013 when the resolution was passed 44, determining that each committee acts annually within its area of ​​competence, following the actions of the executive branch.

Senators question budget of the Ministry of Science and … – News Portal of the Federal Senate

Senators were concerned about the budget curtailment of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation in the public hearing held on Tuesday (29) the Commission of Science, Technology, Innovation, Communication and Informatics (CCT). Minister Celso Pansera spoke on the progress, challenges and expectations of the ministry for the year 2016.

The political crisis was also subject to debate. Asked by the chairman of the committee, Senator Lasier Martins (PDT-RS), on the minister’s position on the political situation of the country, Pansera, which is federal deputy for the PMDB, said it was against the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff. He said he continues as minister until there is an outcome of this situation

-. As a Member, I will vote against the impeachment. I do not think there is the fact that determines the impeachment. Regarding the maintenance of the ministry, I will wait for the resolution to be approved or not this afternoon at the party meeting. Already communicated to the president of my party and the vice-president, Michel Temer, my wish is to continue working in the Ministry. We will not stop any initiative – said

The minister also said he is against the political struggle to be taken to the extreme of dismantled ministries, especially the Health, Agriculture and Mines and Energy.. To Pansera, are key ministries with immediate impacts to the population.



Cuts

As for the budget, the minister said that this year there was a large contingency due the economic crisis. Was cut from the Ministry of Science and Technology R $ 1.7 billion from the National Scientific and Technological Development Fund (FNDCT), which left the Senators concerned.

But Pansera said there was a hit with the government for the contingency in FNDCT be done slowly and shut down in 2019. in addition, Pansera explained that 25% of the pre-salt background should go to the area of ​​Science and Technology. Finally, the minister also has a loan from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), which should generate an amount of almost R $ 800 million for this year

-. The other issue was the immediate descontingenciamento of R $ 400 million of FNDCT this year as well. With this, we would have a inflow of funds by the end of the year would allow the operation of the system, all our social organizations and institutes and also the fulfillment of the commitments we have with bags and researchers – said the minister

Senator Walter Pinheiro (PT-BA) stressed the need to unite the scientific policies of the country, with actions to increase the industrial development of Brazil

-. You have to rescue the ability to combine science policy with industrial development. How do we overcome these challenges of growth, without combining these two areas? -s questioned Senator.

He also recalled that Brazil is facing several challenges, such as lack of skilled labor, while there are increasing promising sectors in various areas related to technology.

Science without Borders

Celso Pansera cited advances in various programs of your folder, such as the Science without Borders, which has implemented 92,880 scholarships until January 2016. Pansera also cited because the program has been released FNDCT and come under the coverage of the Ministry of Education, which will allow the fund’s funds are intended for other areas of innovation.

Senator Omar Aziz (PSD- AM), which reported the analysis of the program, chosen as public policy to be evaluated by the commission in 2015, asked the Minister to take into account the recommendations made in the report. The minister said that one of the recommendations, invest more in post-graduate courses, will be met and that there is another debate to invest more in the engineering area

-. Most of the students who participated science without Borders are the area of ​​engineering and science and technology. We further ampliaríamos this margin for these areas of Exact focused on the area of ​​production and engineering – said the minister

Dengue, Zika and chikungunya

. Pansera also said that the Ministry will invest this year in the National Plan to Combat the Aedes aegypti and microcephaly, released last week. The minister explained that the program has a budget of $ 1.2 billion and will by 2017

the minister said on Wednesday (30), will be announced the results of research that proves that phosphoethanolamine does no harm to human body. But Pansera explained that further research will be needed to find out how the substance acts within the body.

As it has no negative effects on the body, the minister said it would be possible to release it as a food supplement and that alternative being evaluated. The problem of project approval is that the pill developed by the University of São Paulo (USP) contains not only the phosphoethanolamine, but other substances that are not mentioned in the proposal

Smart shoes: Technology carried on the feet – JornalismoPortoNet (press release)

 the evolution & # XE7; & # XE3, the technology used in lime & # XE7; ado sports has been steady

And if the laces of his sneakers to clench alone? And if your shoes would encourage the exercising? The JPN brings together some examples of how technology can revolutionize the sports shoes.

In 1971, Bill Bowerman and his wife were having breakfast. A daily ritual for millions of people, the Nike co-founder had the idea to put rubber on the toaster “waffles” and so were born the grooves in the soles of the shoes that made them more adherent to the track. This was the technology of the moment. Forty-five years after the slots continued on the soles of Nike tennis, the “waffles” continue to be part of the breakfast, but the technology has undergone tremendous development.

Back to the Future

You will not need to watch “Back to the Future II” to see automatic laces on sneakers. Nike will sell a model similar to that Michal J.Fox pants in the movie. The new “HyperAdapt 1.0″ are composed of an automatic fastening system strands. According to the brand, when the heel touching a sensor sneakers are tightened automatically. In addition, “HyperAdapt 1.0″ are two buttons that will allow squeezing tennis to like the person the pants. With this system, the laces desapertam not alone, a frequent problem in this type of footwear.

The revolutionary Nike model will not be available for everyone. Only registered users of the Nike + application will have access to “HyperAdapt 1.0″. The model will be on sale in three colors. The price has not yet been released by the brand.

But the technological evolution is not the laces. Google has developed a device for shoes, which encourages the user to exercise. Although not available to market, the brand said that the invention was made to show that there may be a link between everyday objects and the Internet.

The device of the “Google” was presented Numas sneakers ” Adidas “containing an accelerometer that lets you know how often hits foot on the ground, for example. In addition, the device consists of a gyroscope, a high voice system that enables trainers “talk” and encourage the practice of sport. Sneakers have connection “bluetooth” and sensors on the soles.

From the Massachussets Institute of Technology (MIT) have reached the “BioSole” sneakers. These tennis “recognize” its owner. Through a “chip” placed on the soles of shoes is possible to know the pattern of walking the user with only three steps. This advance of biometrics would recognize, for example, on security issues, a stranger in a particular place.

In addition, these sneakers are being tested as an ally in health because the sensors through movement can help diagnose some diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, by changing the way of walking.

the past lingers

Despite the technological developments are many examples of innovations that, since a few years, lasted to the present day.

An example is the “Converse All Stars” created in 1917. Despite being notorious differences in the brand shoes today for what they were 99 years ago, the specific design and featuring the brand was the same. The shape of the “All Stars” was designed specifically for the first time, for basketball.

Nike launched the technology “Flyknit” that allows sneakers are lightweight and flexible. The tennis are made with specific fibers and, therefore, weigh about 160 grams. This technology also allows an adjustment by compression placing the user’s foot in place. This was a biomechanical innovation that continues to be used by the brand.

Puma, in turn, revives the technology “Ignite Disc”. The brand will launch this year sneakers have laces and are therefore but easy to press. This feature of Puma tennis is not new. The technology “Ignite Disc” was launched by the brand in 1991.

New malicious software “kidnaps” the entire hard disk and asks for ransom – Daily News – Lisbon

Unlike other ransomware, the Petya does not encrypt only some files – instead, prevents the computer from connecting

a new software malicious, which is being dubbed Petya and was described by several antivirus companies in recent days, takes the ransomware to the next level, disabling the computer and making all inaccessible files.

Unlike other programs ransomware , which encrypt the user files the Petya passes next to the files and instead overwrites the Master Boot Record of the hard disk, leaving the computer unable to boot, and encrypts the “map” of the files, leaving them almost impossible to recover.

Petya has been mainly registered in Germany. “Disguises up” of an email that is a job offer, writes PC World magazine, adding: “This suggests that its creators have targeted companies with messages to be directed to human resource departments “. The email contains a link to a folder on Dropbox with a file that appears to be the candidate’s resume -. But if it is downloaded and executed, the file installs the ransomware

Once installed , the software starts by rewriting the MBR – the lines of code that tell the computer where to find the operating system, and other information that allow you to boot. This causes what is known as a ‘blue screen of death’, that is, the computer is unable to boot, showing only an error image before restarting. According to PC World, which is based on the book reviews written by antivirus companies, it is at this point that the ransomware encrypts the Masters File Table (MFT) – a special file that contains information about all other files, since its name to the place where they are. With the encrypted MFT, it is almost impossible to access the files. Thus, Petya bypasses the encryption to the files themselves, which is what usually happens with the ransomware , which takes much longer.

So, when the computer restarts arises Petya message that explains the owner of the affected computer you will have to pay a ransom for your computer to be decrypted – normal procedure that is requested for this type of software malicious, forcing users many sometimes little versed in technology to enter the Tor network to pay a ransom in Bitcoin.

for now, this software malicious has only been detected in Germany. But PC World points out that it is common for the ransomware start to be limited to a certain place, but eventually it spread.

This type of software asking for ransom in Bitcoin for decryption of files from an infected computer is becoming more frequent. The Petya is different not encrypt the files but the “road map” to locate, and prevent your computer from starting, while others leave the computer to operate normally, but the encrypted files inaccessible.

on Monday, the FBI asked even helps computer security experts to assist in their investigation of this type of software . The leader of one of the security companies, the Carbon Black even said: “It is to become a ciberemergência”

Technology word is feminine – Computerworld

For a TED Talk published in early February this year, lawyer and American politics and also founder of the nonprofit Girls Who Code, Reshma Saujani, said girls are usually ‘trained’ to be perfect, must reach ever the best grades and behave well. The boys, on the other hand, are encouraged to ‘play up’, and even that hurt, the important thing is the fact that tried. According to Reshma, society creates girls to be perfect, and boys to be brave.

In the technology world where we are often forced to risk, it is not hard to see that reflection. There is still a very low number of women working in the industry, and an even smaller salary – they receive 74.5% of the wages of men, according to a study by the IBGE. To get an idea of ​​the 200 largest companies in Brazil, only three have women in charge. Thinking about it, we ask: why are there so few women in technology? How can companies do to empower their women and, with that, increase their participation in business?

Obviously, the chauvinistic thinking and even a little repressor many sectors of technology needs to change, values ​​such as flexibility of labor, women workers, and the power of organization and creativity, must be valued; as in the case in which more than one activity to be performed at the same time and by the same person; women, often due to the impositions of society, have created a strong power of resilience and adaptation, which are essential in these situations

There is also the false assumption that to work in technology is necessary mathematical knowledge.; on the contrary, it is misleading to think that can not work with the marketing or with the commercial sectors of an IT company. And even – why not? – Within development areas, asking for a touch more creativity

Today, more than ever, it is necessary that companies recognize the value of women in the technology market, on the other hand, even. more importantly, women must realize itself the potential to devote to the sector. There are projects that encourage women’s participation in technology; according to Staffing Industry, the English company Empiric recruitment, plans to invest and attract more than 5,000 women for the area until 2020. The Girls Who Code of Saujani, intends to put one million women in the computing market also by 2020 . of course, these initiatives do not just happen out of the country, in Brazil the computer scientist Camila Achutti, founded the Women in computing blog to encourage Brazilian. And there are many other opportunities for women who want to know and act in such an interesting universe.

In the case of companies, the task is to instigate the creation of discussion groups on women’s performance in the market and even within the company itself. Actions to raise tariffs and share experiences will undoubtedly enrich not only the team relationship, but also the relationship with the company itself. In addition, the company can create specific policies for hiring women in strategic positions, and to invest in partnerships with universities, so there is the incentive of these girls in their careers. We need more seats are occupied by women. We need more time to be devoted to these talents often afraid to try and achieve. If you were taught to be perfect, are so perfect in bravery. Some of you have noticed that ‘technology’ is written in the feminine?

This will certainly contribute a lot to the feeling of paranoia in the future. How to know if the person in front of you is real? The technology can be used to live, but it is also possible to record 3D messages that can be played more or less like in Star Wars.

scattered cameras around the person capture your image from all angles, allowing the system to create a rendered model, which is a version in blocks of each other that resembles that animated series ReBoot.

After that, the image will become a more similar way to what is a human being, before the data is compressed and transmitted with reasonable fidelity elsewhere
