“They’re tying in data from raw material to the end user, while monitoring and controlling the impact of decisions along the way. Having visibility in real time is very valuable,” Stubbs says. “That’s why data is on the brink of becoming the new currency.”

Shortly after the introduction of the protocol this spring, Microsoft said it was testing the use of supported devices – such as those from Yubico, HID and Feitian – in limited preview to enable users to sign in to Windows 10 devices using two-factor authentication.

Though I have similar reservations about the investment versus the benefit for schools, I think the Surface Go is a more powerful tool for this scenario. Running a full PC operating system with more power gives schools options for what to run on these devices. They’re also small enough for younger children to handle, and the integrated touch interface, especially in Windows 10 S, is appealing (as opposed to on chromebooks, which often lack touch). Younger kids may be more prone to damaging a non-rugged device like this one, but given that Microsoft is aiming for this audience, the Surface Go should be able to withstand some wear and tear.

Since the 1950s, lasers have done a fine job scanning one-dimensional bar codes. But, that’s about all they can do. Bryan Sellars, national product manager of presence detection for SICK, says an accelerating migration toward image capture and vision-based bar code reading offers significantly greater functionality. Concurrently, greater adoption of two-dimensional (2D) bar codes, which can encode more information in a smaller printed area and do not require consistent orientation, is underway.

However, the first publicly available device based on this technology is likely to have a far smaller scope than Bones’ Tricorder. Basil Leaf Technologies is working on creating a monitoring device for a single disease state, congestive cardiac failure (CCF), that a patient could keep with them at home to help monitor the progress of their condition. The aim is for a person with CCF, a chronic condition, to interact with the device a couple of times a day, and that information to be sent back to a medical professional to review. With such longitudinal monitoring, a doctor can monitor the patient’s progress regularly without having to ask them to take time out of their days to come in for regular check-ups.

Insulet Corporation had 8 sales and 0 buys since August 14, 2018. This’s net activity of $1.34 million. On Tuesday, September 4 Petrovic Shacey sold $100,090 worth of Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ:PODD). On Wednesday, November 14 Colleran David also sold $491,546 worth of Insulet Corporation (NASDAQ:PODD). Spears Michael P had sold 5,043 shs worth $434,113.

Driving both trends, Sellars says, is the operational intelligence that image-based scanning and 2D bar codes provide. With laser-based scanning of one-dimensional bar codes, the only data collected is whether a code was properly read or not. If the trigger sensor went off but didn’t read, maybe a label is missing or the laser was looking for chocolate when presented with vanilla, but Sellars says the binary pass/fail feedback doesn’t lend itself to a quick and effective diagnosis.

What it also shows is how people create things that never get shared with others because they will only release it when it’s ‘finished’, while they will never reach that state due to setting too high goals for themselves.

Sprint’s early surge WASHINGTON-Sprint Spectrum L.P., which began offering personal communications service in Washington a year ago through partner American Personal Communications, has converted its marketing from a big-bang effort to one resembling a continuous rumble. During the last 13 months, the carrier has attracted more than 100,000 subscribers (July 1996 figures); has nearly doubled its cell sites (from 264 to 414); and has won a first-place J.D. Power and Associates award for customer service, call quality and price seven months into its existence. Mirroring its initial plunge into the marketplace during last year’s holiday season, Sprint Spectrum this year has been running major print ads in cooperation with its retail partners and has offered a $99 phone. Retail outlets handling the Sprint Spectrum phones and service have doubled since last year-to 400-cutting an even larger customer-recognition swathe this season. With increased training and advertising provided by Sprint Spectrum, and word-of-mouth testimonials provided by friends and relatives who are subscribers, retail workers are having an even easier time this year promoting the shrink-wrapped phones in a box. … Read more

The tablet is gorgeous. On paper, 15 inches sounds like a giant monster of a tablet, but I found it perfect for holding an article or flicking around social media during short breaks, before locking it back into the keyboard with a satisfying click to return to work. The size also means the Surface Book is big enough to comfortably view two apps side-by-side should you need to.
