Détournement de certains canaux de communication Internet de Barack Obama par la #SEA (Armée Électronique Syrienne, pro-Assad). Apparemment, pas de jeu avec les noms de domaine (en tout cas, je n’en trouve aucune trace dans le DNS), uniquement une prise de contrôle de certaines ressources via le panneau de contrôle qui permet de les éditer et dont le mot de passe avait circulé.

Ireland to Alter Company Tax Laws After Apple Controversy
▻http://mashable.com/2013/10/16/ireland-tax-laws

some companies like #Apple cut their tax bills using Irish subsidiaries that don’t declare tax residency anywhere in the world, others do so in zero-tax or low tax jurisdictions.

#LinkedIn, for example, cuts its global tax bill by paying tens of millions of dollars a year in royalties to an Irish unit that declares its tax residence in the #Isle_of_Man, corporate filings show.

Linus Torvalds avoue des pressions pour mettre un #backdoor dans #Linux
▻http://www.numerama.com/magazine/27033-linus-torvalds-avoue-des-pressions-pour-mettre-un-backdoor-dans-linu

Linus Torvalds participait cette semaine à la LinuxCon North America, à Hyatt New Orleans, où il est intervenu dans une conférence sur le noyau Linux qu’il a créé et qu’il continue de développer. (...)

« L’un de vous a-t-il déjà été approché par les USA pour ouvrir une porte dérobée ? » (...)

D’abord, silences et rires gênés des autres intervenants à la conférence (Tejun Heo et Ric Wheeler de Red Hat, Greg Kroah-Hartman de la Linux Foundation, et Sarah Sharp d’Intel). Puis Linus Torvalds prend la parole avec un grand sourire. « Non », prononce-t-il en insistant... sur son mouvement de tête qui dit oui. 

« Rien dont je ne puisse parler », ajoutera simplement Tejun Heo

Internet made big banks obsolete, it is now time to stop paying for them

We are quickly evolving beyond the “winner takes all” ethos of traditional banking. Because once all is taken, there’s quite simply nothing left for anyone. This applies to both central banking and the local “revolution” that seeks to overturn it.

In a digital economy, we regain the ability to encourage stable, steady-state, local economic activity without abandoning the benefits of long-distance, corporate markets. It’s a monetary mashup.

“We had to find out whether people wanted something all-new and interactive, or if they just wanted the magazine in mobile mode,” Carey recounted on stage. “The industry overshot the interactivity early on. What we discovered is that most people just want the product itself,” he said.

How an Electric Guitar Actually Works
►http://mashable.com/2012/12/13/electric-guitar

The electric guitar has become a staple in jazz, rock and pop music. Today, many of us couldn’t even imagine our favorite tunes without the influences of Chuck Berry, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and countless others — and who could forget how Jimi Hendrix forever changed the American national anthem?

But before that sweet sound can come through your speakers, a fascinating technological process takes place. Electric guitars essentially transform string vibrations into electromagnetic energy. The process is quick and simple to understand, but pretty impressive for a 1931 invention.

To understand how an electric guitar works, first you need to know its various components. Let’s take a closer look at one of the most popular instruments in the world.

How NASA Makes Scientific Data Beautiful

The Leaders in Design Series is presented by Volvo. Volvo designs luxury cars around its Swedish heritage. Volvo designs around safety. And most of all, Volvo designs around you. Visit Volvocars.com/us to learn more and check out @VolvoCarsUS on Twitter.

How do you make education interesting and, more importantly, beautiful? When it comes to the work of NASA, attracting enthusiasts isn’t difficult with the usual visuals of bright stars and colorful planets on hand. Look no further than the recent awe over Mars rover Curiosity’s high-res pictures to see proof of humanity’s fascination with space.

But not all of NASA’s data is packaged into a neat little photos. In fact, some of the organization’s most important findings about space come back in the form of numbers, beamed in by one of the many satellites orbiting our planet. And this information is brought to life by the Scientific Visualization Studio (SVS) — a team of scientists and animators that turns numerical data into a dynamic graphic or video.

How NASA Makes Scientific #Data Beautiful

We actually have a website where every single thing we do and have done for the past 20 years is on display for anyone to use. We had created an animation page describing the video, but we hadn’t tried to advertise. Then a colleague of ours who pushes #NASA stuff to social media put it on our Facebook Page, and it just caught like wildfire — it went completely viral at that point.

Google Maps: Tree Density Tells the Story of Income Inequality | Matt petronzio (En anglais)
►http://mashable.com/2012/07/18/google-maps-income-inequality

It isn’t always easy to spot income inequality. The disparate distribution of money among a population based on race, gender and other factors could take place in your own neighborhood, and you may not even realize it. Even when college courses and movements, such as Occupy Wall Street, try to teach people about the subject, it still remains difficult to comprehend. On Google Maps, however, it’s pretty simple to see definitive lines of income inequality. And the tool can help us better understand how this inequality affects the integration of communities. (...)
