Un aereo da combattimento, spesso definito "caccia", rappresenta una categoria specifica di aeromobile militare progettato primariamente per intercettare e distruggere in volo velivoli nemici. Nato durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale, il caccia ha raggiunto una centralità strategica soprattutto nel secondo conflitto mondiale, dove il controllo dello spazio aereo si è rivelato un fattore decisivo. Con il progresso tecnologico, si è trasformato in una macchina bellica versatile e multiruolo, capace non solo di ingaggiare bersagli aerei ma anche di svolgere compiti di ricognizione e attacco al suolo. In questa puntata ripercorriamo l'evoluzione tecnologica dei caccia militari attraverso le diverse "generazioni", dai primi jet subsonici fino ai moderni velivoli stealth dotati di intelligenza artificiale e capacità di controllo di veicoli autonomi.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo della prima videochiamata protetta con crittografia quantistica, del sostegno di YouTube al No Fakes Act e infine di Wordpress che ha lanciato un nuovo strumento di IA per la creazione di siti web.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione00:57 - La prima videochiamata con crittografia quantistica (HDBlog.it, Matteo Gallo)02:07 - YouTube sostiene il No Fakes Act (TheVerge.com, Davide Fasoli)03:13 - Wordpress.com ora crea i siti con l'IA (TheVerge.com, Luca Martinelli)05:06 - L'evoluzione tecnologica dei caccia militari (Matteo Gallo)17:36 - Conclusione--Testo--Leggi la trascrizione: https://www.dentrolatecnologia.it/S7E15#testo--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Brani--• Ecstasy by Rabbit Theft• Redemption by Max Brhon

To celebrate our 60th episode, we speak to an industry legend, Simon Daglish. Dags' career has seen him go from GCap, to Channel 4, to Fox Interactive, to ITV, but his work is only half the story. In his spare time he's raised £5m for charity, and many who've worked with him cite him as the best person they've ever worked for. https://www.maplestreetcreative.co.uk/https://www.pashn.media/https://radioworks.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

In Chad, representatives of opposition political parties are holding talks to decide before the end of the week whether to participate in the May 6 presidential election. Members of the umbrella group called GCAP – which represents at least 12 political parties -- are expressing concern about the credibility of the coming poll. Nasour Koursami, leader of the opposition Patriots party and a prominent member of the GCAP, says both Prime Minister Success Masra and military junta leader Mahamat Deby Itno should resign from their positions before contesting as candidates. This, he says, will ensure an equal playing field ahead of the vote. Koursami tells VOA's Peter Clottey, there are genuine concerns that the outcome of the elections is already predetermined.

Dirk Anthony is one of the most famous, or for some, infamous, radio bosses there's ever been. He pretty much ran the show at GWR and then Gcap, after the merger with Capital. When you weald so much power for so long it's difficult for some to see beyond the 'big, scary boss' tag, and forget there's s real person with their own story, dealing with their own pressures. So, not having had too many dealings Dirk in the past, Foxy was a bit nervous about grilling "the Guvnor"... but it's probably fair to say Dirk was more nervous! We started right at the beginning, taking in his slightly fortuitous entry into the industry after initially taking on a trade. He lifts the lid on the GWR / Capital merger, and muses on a job he could / should have taken on. And he addresses the "bloody Aussies" feeling some people had, with great humility and understanding. Oh, he also tells us his real name - listen right to the end for that. And whatever you thought you knew about Dirk, prepare to find out the real story.   Dirk is now a partner of the consultancy company Blank White Page (https://blankwhitepage.co.uk/) and has made the incredibly kind offer to help any Crunch & Roll listener who's struggling with life after radio to understand who their skills and experience can be invaluable in the outside world.

In this episode we talk about more PSM related subjects with Brian. Known as the "PSM Evangelist" and the "Jon Taffer of Ammonia PSM," He has taught over 1,000 people how to implement PSM/RMP in their Ammonia processes. He was a GCAP instructor and now manages compliance with RC&E out of the DFW area.

Brian is the Risk and Safety Manager at RC&E. If you know Brian you know that he's pretty much the PSM Guru. I've had the pleasure of being in one of his PSM classes and I can honestly say it was one of the most engaging classes Ive ever taken. He was a GCAP instructor and helped them with the development of the PSM material along with doing the same thing with RETA. You can look forward to that soon! This was a great podcast and one we've been trying to make for months. Enjoy.

In this hour of ‘Radio Moments – Conversations’, Don Thomson tells of his days at the mighty Kelloggs, before alighting on a career in radio at a colourful Piccadilly in Manchester. He moved to LWT, before establishing a national radio airtime sales agency representing the UK’s newest stations – and then returning to Piccadilly as sales director.    As Chrysalis won the first of its major radio licences, Don was appointed as sales director, helping to establish Heart in the West Midlands where he designed refreshing and more accountable customer-focused ad policies as the medium became more competitive for both clients and audiences. His role broadened as Chrysalis won the London licence and his clear vision and operational focus helped to position the brand approach to radio we recognise today. On the acquisition of Chrysalis by the new Global Radio in 2007, Don became Chief Operating Officer, helping to integrate the GCap stations as Global rose to its dominant position. Since leaving the Company, he has been involved in a variety of projects, including a period as Chief Exec of Celador Radio. He reflects on the lessons he learned from Kelloggs; the tricks of client relationships; and the programmers and presenters who have helped or hindered commercial efforts. In his own words – this is the Don Thomson story.

From football reporter - to becoming one of the leading figures in a generation of commercial radio, this is the story of Steve Orchard. In this hour of ‘Radio Moments Conversations’, Steve tells of his schooling and education; and a first career in social work, honing skills he was take with him throughout his life. An interest in hospital radio led to opportunities at Wiltshire Radio which flourished as the station evolved into the new GWR, where he hosted the breakfast show.  As GWR grew, so did Steve’s role and he relates experiences of rolling out the famous GWR format to the company’s acquisitions. He tells too of his involvement in LBC and Classic FM – and of the pain involved in the merger to create GCap. And – from more recent days - his proud involvement in Quidem and Prison Radio.  Steve shares his frustrations about regulation and his views on research vs instinct, talent management, the importance of station mood - and today’s radio environment. In his own words, this is the Steve Orchard story.

Chill was launched by the then GCap in 2005. It adopted the Smooth parent brand on 3rd September 2019.  Hear here some of the segues and imaging from the opening morning.

He inherited Capital Radio as it wrestled with the fresh challenges of a fast-changing, competitive industry and made his mark on changing the perceptions of national advertising agencies towards the medium. His commercial focus - and an acquisition spree built the industry’s biggest business which was to be the lead player in the GCap merger.  In this hour of #Radiomoments ‘Conversations’, David opens up about his childhood and his discovery of the excitement of doing the deals. He tells of his days in TV, relates his feelings as he stepped aside from GCap - and talks about life since. In his own words, this is the David Mansfield story. The whole 'Conversations' series can be previewed [here](https://www.davidlloydradio.com/conversations). Music by [Larry Bryant.](http://www.larrybryant.com)

From his beginnings as a young press journalist, Ralph Bernard rose through the radio ranks as a programmer, and then senior executive, to lead what became the UK’s largest radio group. He played a key role at GWR in early consolidation, brokered the deals which brought Classic FM to air and headed GCap in challenging and conflicted times. From his triumphs to his disappointments, this is the forty year story of Ralph Bernard’s life in radio - in his own words.

From  a lucky traineeship through to managing the purchase of that very station and its neighbours three decades later, via the creation of UK brand-led radio. In this hour of 'Radio Moments - Conversations', Phil Riley opens up about his personal roots - and tells of his journey to BRMB. His business school spell in New York, prepared him for his first programme directorship as he created the new Xtra AM in the West Midlands. Poached to run struggling Radio Aire, he took that company to profitability and launched its successful Magic 828. Joining Chrysalis Radio as it began its activities proper in radio, Phil launched Heart in Birmingham and London, the first mainstream competitor to the early tier of commercial radio, and the first to roll out that brand and its values in multiple regions - paving the way for brand-led radio we witness today. Phil tells of the sale of Chrysalis Radio to become the foundation for Global Radio  and of his private equity-funded projects which, as Orion Media, were to result in the purchase of the stations in the Midlands shed by Global on their GCap acquisition. He opens up too about life since, including his role at Celador and in holding the reins at Bauer's newly acquired assets as they were instructed to hold-separate. Research and evidence-led - and one of the most respected executives in UK commercial radio this is the Phil Riley story - in his own words.

The old Glenwood Springs Caverns Adventure Park tram is being replaced, and since it is so near and dear to our hearts, we decided to scrap our show we were going to make and instead make a show in homage of that dear old tram. (Don't worry about our other show, you aren't missing much. It was just a blindfold competition between the cast to see who could differentiate between old smelly socks and Gorgonzola cheese.) - - - Photo Credit: https://i.stack.imgur.com/tHihs.jpg

The convergence of the AM networks across the UK is a complex tale. Each of the original commercial stations, compelled by the regulator to do something more useful on their AM frequencies, generally chose to launch oldies stations of various flavours. Individual names like Supergold, WGMS, Brunel and GEM.AM gradually evolved into a mighty GWR network of Classic Gold stations, which was nothing to do with the original Yorkshire Radio Network ‘Classic Gold’ station. Meanwhile, At that time, Bauer were merrily amalgamating their AM stations into a Magic AM network, which was nothing to do with the London soft AC of the same name. Capital was assembling its own Capital Gold network too, comprising all its AM offerings such as Xtra-AM, WABC and South Coast Radio. Come August 2007, with GWR and Capital merged into GCap, their two AM networks Gold and Classic Gold became simply Gold. With the new name came programme changes, and here David ‘Kid’ Jensen hosts his last morning show after five year in the slot and prepares to begin the breakfast show. As a sunny day comes to an end, he generously pays tribute too to his colleagues who won’t be part of the new plans. Not sure if he took his competition with him. The single 'Gold' launched at 7 pm on 3rd August 2007, as the stations joined the sustaining service which was to be itself.
