Although we've seen great successes come out of the technology sector in recent decades, many critics — and even some insiders — say it's due for an overhaul. As a longtime Silicon Valley engineer and executive and cofounder of the Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing conference, Telle Whitney argues that tech culture is still too closed-off and unwelcoming to different points of view, which leads to products and services that aren't as good as they could be — for consumers and society. She thinks the industry — and corporate tech departments — can stay innovative while also becoming more inclusive and shares her advice for leaders who want to help. Whitney is the author of the new book Rebooting Tech Culture: How to Ignite Innovation and Build Organizations Where Everyone Can Thrive.

Rob Woollen lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. He grew up with a Father in IT and management, and his Mother as an English teacher. He has been programming for a long time, since the early days on his Apple 2E (yes, the green screen one). Outside of tech, he is married with 3 boys, all teenagers. He also has a 1 year old golden retriever, and spends a lot of time ensuring he lives his best life. In addition to this, he and his wife enjoy hiking around the Marin area, as they have the best hiking trials.Rob spent many years at Salesforce, and it struck him that many of the company operations were still done on spreadsheets. When he left the company, he started exploring how to create something to support large scale data sets, within the familiar UI of spreadsheets.This is the creation story of Sigma Computing.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthLinkshttps://www.sigmacomputing.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rwoollen/Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Why is there a need for a cultural and educational shift towards appreciating, building, and maintaining industrial systems? What would a rebirth of manufacturing look like in 2025? How would we go about setting up a new Industrial Enlightenment?David A. Mindell is a professor of aerospace engineering and the history of engineering and manufacturing at MIT. He is also the author of several books. The title of his latest book and the primary subject of this discussion is The New Lunar Society: An Enlightenment Guide to the Next Industrial Revolution.Greg and David discuss the 18th-century industrial enlightenment and its implications for modern industrial society. They also explore the evolving relationship between technology and labor, the persistent myths around automation, and the importance of valuing industrial contributions in today's digital economy. Mendell emphasizes the need for a cultural and educational shift towards appreciating building and maintaining industrial systems, advocating for what he describes as a new industrial enlightenment.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The overlooked power of process knowledge12:41: If you are working on a very advanced, cutting-edge product, like a phone, you want to know exactly where there's capacity that's left on the table to enable you to build the next form. Did you design it too conservatively here? Is there something there you could do more with? And that familiarity with process, whether it's manufacturing or maintenance or other aspects of it, is a really important source of knowledge in an industrial system that we've generally devalued in favor of the kind of product innovation. And inventing the shiny new thing. And I'm sitting on the middle of the campus here at MIT, where we spend a lot of time teaching students about what is essentially product innovation. And we have very few folks on this campus who know anything about the processes that make and maintain these systems, even though very often that knowledge is a source of really great innovation.Is disruption really the enemy in industrial systems11:16: Disruption is the enemy in an industrial system. Reliability, repeatability, efficiency, robustness—those are things that people care a lot about in these systems.The untapped potential of maintenance cycles31:59: Improving maintenance cycles is a huge source of process innovation that we have not paid enough attention to, and if you can make something that lasts longer, that's a real contribution. I'm a pilot, and people make airplanes last for 50, 60, 70 years because they're designed to be maintained and upgraded, and you replace the parts that wear out and keep them going. Why can't we do that with laptops and phones and even routers or other disposable parts of the electronic economy? And so, work is changing. Work should change. Work should always be responding to the technological changes and needs of the time.On the myth of replacement in technology and work45:55: The myth of replacement, as I talk about in the book, is really. It's not that technologies don't enable us to do things with fewer people. Again, that's really the definition of productivity and not a bad definition for technology in these settings. It's more that, for one, it's very rare that you see a technology replace a human job and do that job the same way. Much more common that they change the nature of the work. Either they move it to a different place, they change the kind of skills that are required. They maybe make the job higher level. Maybe they make the job lower level. And you want to ask those questions about who's doing the work, where are they? What's their background, what's their training? Why does it matter? Those things change a lot, but it's relatively rare.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Josiah WedgwoodIndustrial RevolutionLewis MumfordJames WattMatthew BoultonEric SchmidtLunar Society of BirminghamAdam SmithWilliam ThompsonLord KelvinDissenting AcademiesJoseph PriestleyWilliam SmallAir France Flight 447WaymoGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at MITProfessional Profile at AeroAstroLinkedIn ProfileWikipedia Profile.Unless ProfileSocial Profile on XHis Work:Amazon Author PageThe New Lunar Society: An Enlightenment Guide to the Next Industrial RevolutionOur Robots, Ourselves: Robotics and the Myths of AutonomyThe Work of the Future: Building Better Jobs in an Age of Intelligent MachinesDigital Apollo: Human and Machine in SpaceflightIron Coffin: War, Technology, and Experience aboard the USSBetween Human and Machine: Feedback, Control, and Computing before CyberneticsWar, Technology, and Experience aboard the USS MonitorResearch Gate Page

Australia recorded the highest number of data breach reports last year since monitoring began in 2018. The latest Notifiable Data Breaches Report found 69 per cent of those data breaches were due to malicious or criminal attacks, with 29 per cent derived from human error. Most personal information in the breaches was contact information, identity data, or financial or health information, which hackers could use to blackmail companies or impersonate individuals. Professor Toby Murray, from the School of Computing and Information Systems at the University of Melbourne, has advice for how to protect yourself from data breaches.

There are an almost uncountable number of Windows 11 "tweak"-type utilities out there. But Wintoys is one of the better ones, thanks to its comprehensive feature-set and modern user interface. As the utility's website notes, you can use Wintoys to access hidden settings, free up disk space, access advanced repair tools without using the command line, configure Windows 11's privacy and advertising features, and more. Some of this is readily available in Windows 11 itself, of course, but the settings are spread out all over the place. But some of it is much less accessible, and it's nice to have it all in a single place.

We're pleased to welcome Dr. Peter Krapp, the author of Computing Legacies: Digital Cultures of Simulation (MIT Press, 2024), to the New Books Network.  In Computing Legacies, Peter Krapp explores a media history of simulation to excavate three salient aspects of digital culture. Firstly, he profiles simulation as cultural technique, enabling symbolic work and foregrounding hypothetical literacy. Secondly, he positions simulation as crucial for the preservation of cultural memory, where modeling, emulation, and serious play are constitutive in how we relate to our mediated history. And lastly, despite suggestions that we may already live in a simulation, he interrogates how simulation can serve as critique of the computer age. In tracing our digital heritage, Computing Legacies elucidates inflection points where quantitative data becomes tractable for qualitative evaluations: modeling epidemics for scientific study or entertainment, emulating older devices, turning numerical calculations into music, conducting espionage in virtual worlds, and gamifying higher education. Simulation, this book demonstrates, is pivotal not only to high-tech research and to archives, museums, and the preservation of digital culture but also to our understanding of what it is to live and work under the technical conditions of computing.

A social choice represents the collective decision of the individuals based on their preferences over the alternatives. There are societal services operated by governmental or non-governmental organizations which implement a social choice model. For example, the allocation of shelters to homeless individuals considers both the preferences of homeless individuals and the shelters. However, the preferences of such vulnerable populations may not be as structured as required in the system for them to receive an effective service. Peash’s research focus is on building a unified preference system to reflect the unconventionality in the natural preferences of the vulnerable attempting to access such services. The novel fairness criteria are defined as an end goal of such allocation of services to improve the service for more individuals and broader communities. Peash designs algorithmic solutions to satisfy such fairness requirements on unified preference models. The research outcome has the potential to improve the operational efficiency of ongoing societal services by providing services to more individuals as required.

Send us a textOn this episode of Speaking Of…College of Charleston, we sit down with President Andrew T. Hsu to reflect on highlights of the year. From reaching an all time high of 32,000 applicants to establishing new academic programs like the BA in entrepreneurship, Hsu talks about his drive to keep moving, full speed ahead, to ensure the College's position as a leader of academic excellence.Some key achievements in the last year include the reorganization of STEM programs into two schools; the School of Natural and Environmental Sciences and the School of Engineering, Computing, and Mathematics. "Splitting stems into these two schools gives our university more precision, more flexibility and certainly more visibility across diverse scientific and technological domains, while still allowing for interdisciplinary collaboration," says Hsu.President Hsu emphasizes the importance of liberal arts education for developing durable skills in graduates to make them competitive in the work force. "When I talk with industry leaders, they are looking for graduates, not just with just technical skills, which can be learned on the job, but they want people with durable skills such as communication, creativity, teamwork, problem solving, emotional intelligence and a global mindset. These skills will help our students stay relevant far into the future. And and those are the types of graduates we're producing across disciplines."He reflects on proud moments from the year, including the college's national visibility and events such as the College of Charleston Orchestra's performance at one of the most prestigious stages in the world — Carnegie Hall.“Each of these moments showcase how amazing our university is. Truly, extraordinary events happen here at the College of Charleston every single day,” says Hsu. We are not going to argue.Resources From This episode:College of Charleston Orchestra at Carnegie HallA Year in Review  President Hsu's Instagram and X Accounts

In this episode of ResEdChat, join Noah and Nick Stanford, Senior Academic Advisor at Miami University's College of Engineering and Computing to talk about RA supervision and the concept of "challenge and support" as it relates to that conversation. They discuss challenging RAs to grow as individuals and people, the intricacies of that work, share impactful stories, and offer practical advice for helping RAs not only be successful at their jobs but to grow as students and people as well.

Strategic planning in higher education isn't just about setting goals—it's about building the kind of stakeholder engagement and leadership alignment that can drive lasting institutional change. In this episode of Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Andrew T. Hsu, President of the College of Charleston, about how a collaborative planning process helped increase enrollment, launch new academic schools, and move the college toward national university status. Drawing on his background in both industry and higher education, Dr. Hsu shares insights into balancing urgency with collaboration, the importance of faculty engagement, and the realities of leading strategic change within shared governance environments. This conversation is especially relevant for presidents, boards, provosts, and leadership teams navigating strategic growth, governance challenges, or long-range institutional transformation. Topics Covered: How strategic planning anchored the College of Charleston's enrollment growth and academic expansion Why broad faculty engagement strengthens institutional resilience and accelerates change Lessons from balancing urgency for change with the realities of shared governance How industry experience shaped Dr. Hsu's leadership approach in higher education Governance missteps: What happens when leadership bypasses consultation—and how to correct course Long-term growth planning and the move toward national university status Real-World Examples Discussed: College of Charleston's creation of Schools of Health Sciences, Natural and Environmental Sciences, and Engineering, Computing, and Mathematics The enrollment surge from 11,000 to 32,000 applications annually under Dr. Hsu's leadership Policy changes at Charleston to formalize academic reorganization processes after early challenges Three Key Takeaways for Leadership: Build stakeholder ownership early: Strategic planning must involve faculty, staff, students, alumni, and governing boards to ensure success. Respect governance processes: Even well-intentioned leadership actions can falter without proper consultation and transparency. Balance urgency with collaboration: Sustainable change in higher education requires leaders to move decisively while honoring shared governance culture. This episode offers practical strategies for institutions seeking to strengthen their strategic planning efforts and drive sustainable growth through collaborative leadership. Recommended For: Presidents, provosts, trustees, board members, strategic planning leaders, and senior administrators focused on institutional transformation and governance alignment.

This episode features Scott Piersall, a lecturer at the University of North Florida's School of Computing. Scott's journey into academia is anything but traditional—after high school, he had no plans to attend college. But after years of experience in the industry, he discovered a passion for teaching and is now pursuing a Ph.D. with a focus on machine learning. The lifelong learning takeaway? Keep your mind and options open—to new ideas, new directions, and new possibilities. Scott encourages his students to be bold, reminding them: “The answer is always No until you ask.” His message to mainframe professionals thinking about moving into academia is just as clear: “Don't hesitate! Go for it—it's fun and deeply rewarding!”

Adam Becker's new critique of Silicon Valley More Everything Forever should probably be entitled Less Nothing Never. The science journalist accuses Silicon Valley overlords like Elon Musk and Sam Altman of promoting exaggerated dangers and promises about AI. Becker argues that these apocalyptic fears of superintelligent AI are science fictional fantasies rather than scientifically reasoned arguments. Becker acknowledges large language models have some value but believes their capabilities are overhyped. He criticizes tech billionaires for pursuing AI dominance rather than addressing real problems like climate change, and believes they are also peddling deeply troubling ideologies like eugenics. Silicon Valley is promising us more of everything forever, Becker warns, but the end result will actually be more human misery and degradation. 5 Key Takeaways* Becker believes claims about existential risks from superintelligent AI are unfounded and based on flawed arguments, including misconceptions about intelligence as a monolithic, measurable trait.* He identifies concerning connections between Silicon Valley AI rhetoric and eugenicist ideas, particularly in discussions about intelligence and population concerns from figures like Elon Musk and Marc Andreessen.* While acknowledging current AI systems have some value, Becker argues they're "solutions in search of a problem" with an ecological footprint that may outweigh their benefits.* Becker criticizes tech leaders for pursuing AI dominance instead of directing their resources toward solving urgent problems like climate change.* Rather than worrying about future superintelligence, Becker suggests we focus on how existing AI systems are being used, their resource consumption, and their potential for misuse.Adam Becker is a science journalist with a PhD in astrophysics. He has written for the New York Times, the BBC, NPR, Scientific American, New Scientist, Quanta, and other publications. His first book, What Is Real?, was a New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice and was long-listed for the PEN Literary Science Writing Award.

I computer quantistici rappresentano una delle tecnologie più affascinanti e discusse degli ultimi anni. Promettono di rivoluzionare il calcolo e di risolvere problemi che i computer tradizionali impiegherebbero millenni a elaborare. Ma a che punto siamo davvero?Ne parliamo con Simone Montangero, professore di fisica teorica all'Università di Padova e Direttore del Centro di Calcolo e Simulazioni Quantistiche. Insieme esploriamo le basi di questa tecnologia, spiegando cosa rende un computer quantistico diverso da uno classico e come il concetto di qbit cambi radicalmente le regole del gioco.L'attenzione è puntata anche sulle applicazioni concrete e sulle sfide ancora da superare.Ma non è tutto oro ciò che luccica. Il termine “quantistico” è stato spesso abusato per dare credibilità a teorie pseudoscientifiche e prodotti dalle dubbie basi scientifiche. Dai presunti medici quantistici ai fantomatici manager che “modellano il futuro” con tecniche ispirate alla meccanica quantistica, la disinformazione ha trovato terreno fertile.Un viaggio affascinante tra tecnologia, ricerca e scetticismo per capire meglio il presente e il futuro dell'informatica quantistica.

The AI revolution is charging ahead—but powering it shouldn't cost us the planet. That tension lies at the heart of Vaire Computing's bold proposition: rethinking the very logic that underpins silicon to make chips radically more energy efficient. Speaking on the Data Center Frontier Show podcast, Vaire CEO Rodolfo Rossini laid out a compelling case for why the next era of compute won't just be about scaling transistors—but reinventing the way they work. “Moore's Law is coming to an end, at least for classical CMOS,” Rossini said. “There are a number of potential architectures out there—quantum and photonics are the most well known. Our bet is that the future will look a lot like existing CMOS, but the logic will look very, very, very different.” That bet is reversible computing—a largely untapped architecture that promises major gains in energy efficiency by recovering energy lost during computation. Product, Not IP Unlike some chip startups focused on licensing intellectual property, Vaire is playing to win with full-stack product development. “Right now we're not really planning to license. We really want to build product,” Rossini emphasized. “It's very important today, especially from the point of view of the customer. It's not just the hardware—it's the hardware and software.” Rossini points to Nvidia's CUDA ecosystem as the gold standard for integrated hardware/software development. “The reason why Nvidia is so great is because they spent a decade perfecting their CUDA stack,” he said. “You can't really think of a chip company being purely a hardware company anymore. Better hardware is the ticket to the ball—and the software is how you get to dance.” A great metaphor for a company aiming to rewrite the playbook on compute logic. The Long Game: Reimagining Chips Without Breaking the System In an industry where even incremental change can take years to implement, Vaire Computing is taking a pragmatic approach to a deeply ambitious goal: reimagining chip architecture through reversible computing — but without forcing the rest of the computing stack to start over. “We call it the Near-Zero Energy Chip,” said Rossini. “And by that we mean a chip that operates at the lowest possible energy point compared to classical chips—one that dissipates the least amount of energy, and where you can reuse the software and the manufacturing supply chain.” That last point is crucial. Vaire isn't trying to uproot the hyperscale data center ecosystem — it's aiming to integrate into it. The company's XPU architecture is designed to deliver breakthrough efficiency while remaining compatible with existing tooling, manufacturing processes, and software paradigms.

What does it really take to reimagine the future of endpoint computing? In this special episode recorded live from IGEL's Now and Next 2025 event in Miami, I sit down with Klaus Oestermann, CEO of IGEL, to explore how cybersecurity, digital workspaces, and user experience are being transformed at the edge. Klaus is no stranger to innovation, having spent decades in high-assurance security across critical industries, and now leading IGEL's mission to simplify, secure, and modernize how enterprises manage endpoints. Our conversation starts by unpacking the shift from traditional perimeter-based security models to a new way of thinking rooted in prevention. Klaus explains how IGEL's Preventative Security Model addresses modern threats by dramatically reducing the attack surface at the endpoint and flipping the conversation from detection and response to control and containment. With more organizations relying on hybrid work and SaaS-based applications, the endpoint has never been more critical—or more vulnerable. Klaus also outlines how IGEL OS is supporting everything from virtual desktop infrastructure to secure browsing, while enabling consistent user experiences across cloud, on-prem, and edge environments. But this episode isn't just about technology. It's about strategy. Klaus shares how IGEL is creating meaningful impact by extending device life cycles, cutting hardware replacement costs, and supporting sustainability goals. With Windows 11 upgrades looming and endpoint refresh cycles under pressure, IGEL presents a compelling alternative that balances performance with responsibility. We also dive into the role of AI, how it's reshaping device requirements, and what it means for endpoint security moving forward. And as IGEL expands its ecosystem and reveals over 20 new announcements at this year's event, Klaus offers a candid look into what's resonating with customers—and where the industry is headed next. So what will define your endpoint strategy in 2025? And is your organization ready to lead from the edge?
