Le verdict est tombé à Washington : Google conservera son intégrité. Le juge fédéral Amit Mehta, chargé du procès antitrust historique engagé contre la firme en 2020, a décidé de ne pas imposer le démantèlement du géant technologique. Chrome, Android et le reste de l'écosystème restent entre les mains de la maison mère. Une décision qui soulève autant de soulagement chez les investisseurs que d'interrogations sur la capacité des autorités à réguler les GAFAM.Tout en reconnaissant que Google est en situation de monopole et qu'il a abusé de cette position, le juge a choisi une approche pragmatique. Imposer la cession de produits stratégiques aurait, selon lui, désorganisé profondément le marché numérique, affaibli la qualité des services et créé un risque de chaos technologique. En toile de fond, c'est tout un écosystème — incluant Apple, Samsung ou encore Mozilla — qui dépend des accords commerciaux noués avec Google, notamment pour l'installation par défaut de son moteur de recherche.Mais cette décision n'est pas sans conséquences. Google devra désormais partager certaines données, notamment sur les requêtes de recherche, avec des concurrents comme Bing ou DuckDuckGo. Il lui sera également interdit de signer des contrats d'exclusivité empêchant l'installation d'autres moteurs de recherche sur les appareils et navigateurs.-----------♥️ Vous aimez ce podcast ?

He discusses the importance of modeling good behavior, setting boundaries, and staying authentic in both leadership and content creation. Jim also critiques the unhealthy 996 work culture and explains why teaching financial literacy to kids is one of the best investments parents can make. ✨ All episodes of The Girl Dad Show are proudly sponsored by Thesis, helping founders go further, together. Key Takeaways Over 30 years of leadership experience in Silicon Valley, including scaling Mozilla from Series A to IPO. Balancing family and career is crucial during children's formative years. Sales skills are valuable in every profession, not just sales roles. Travel fosters empathy and cultural understanding in children. Modeling behavior is more impactful than simply telling kids what to do. Setting boundaries between work and family leads to healthier relationships. The 996 work culture promotes burnout and imbalance. Financial literacy for kids is a must. Authenticity resonates more with audiences than polished perfection.

Foundations of Amateur Radio Recently I discussed the idea of listening to the radio spectrum across the internet for the purposes of getting signal into your shack when radios, or in my case, antennas are causing you challenges. I continued to explore and discovered a project by Jacobo EA1ITI, called "radioreceiver". Behind that unassuming name lies a tool born in 2014, that allows you to plug an RTL-SDR dongle into your computer, open up your web-browser, and listen to the radio signals that your dongle can receive. In case you're unfamiliar, an RTL-SDR dongle is a small USB device, looks a lot like a USB thumb drive, jump drive, data stick or flash drive, basically a hunk of plastic with a USB connector on it. An RTL-SDR dongle generally also has some form of antenna connector. It's typically sold as a digital radio and digital television receiver, but websites like rtl-sdr.com sell purpose built ones. They can be found starting at about $15. I realise that this is using a local receiver, with a local antenna, but it's inside a web browser, which is half of what I expected. When you hit the play button in the bottom of the screen, you'll be prompted by your web browser to give permission to access your RTL-SDR dongle and the fun starts. You'll see a live waterfall, hear audio, and have the ability to tune to any frequency you can reach. Depending on your dongle, typically somewhere between 500 kHz and 1.76 GHz. The application consists of seven files, a total of 352 kilobytes that you can store on any web server and run, with one caveat, in order for your web browser to talk to your dongle, it needs to be served using HTTPS. Jacobo has set-up radio.ea1iti.es and I've set-up sdr.vk6flab.com, both showing the same tool. You'll find the code on my VK6FLAB GitHub repository, and of course on Jacobo's. There are some things you need to know. You will need to use a web browser that supports WebUSB, currently that's Chrome, Edge, Opera and several others, sorry, Safari and Firefox don't .. perhaps it's time to talk to Apple and Mozilla. All is explained if you click on the little question mark at the bottom of the screen, it will even tell you if the browser you're using to read the help is compatible or not. If you have an Android phone, you can run this tool too, although you will need to find a way to connect your dongle to your phone. I'm currently limited in my ability to test this and you may need to install some drivers on Windows and Linux, but MacOS and presumably Android, works out of the box. The software also supports offline operation, so you can load it as a Progressive Web App, or PWA, and use it in the field away from the internet. Did I mention that all the decoding is happening inside the web browser, so you can see which code is doing what .. and before you ask, yes, it's minimised in the browser, which you can make into human readable code, but when you look at the source, it shows precisely what is happening, all written in Node.js, TypeScript and JavaScript. It supports CW, SSB, AM, Narrow and Wideband FM and decodes stereo, something which none of my amateur radios do. You might be able to tell that I'm excited. It's because this is providing the basic functionality of a radio inside a web browser, and I didn't need to install it to get started. On the Macintosh I tested this on, I literally opened the web page, plugged in a dongle and hit play. Just so we're clear, just because this is using a web page on a web server, you accessing it will only give you access to your radio not mine. This of course opens the doors to all manner of other fun stuff which I'm expecting to play with for the next little while, and yes, this is also Bald Yak adjacent, I'm aware. In the meantime, you can play with this right now, sdr.vk6flab.com is the place to go. Word of warning, it's addictive and easy to forget it's a radio with an antenna plugged into your computer, so take precautions when electrical storms are about. Look forward to hearing what you discover. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

What does it take to transform a mission-driven organization into a high-velocity execution machine? Today, Peter Winick sits down with Suba Vasudevan, COO of Mozilla, to explore how thought leadership drives impact inside and outside the organization. Suba isn't just talking about brand elevation—she's focused on aligning thought leadership with Mozilla's double bottom line: financial success and a healthy internet. You'll hear how she uses thought leadership to drive strategic clarity, cultural alignment, and real-world execution across a global, mission-focused team. Suba unpacks how leaders can build trust, model transparency, and scale their thinking across a workforce by showing up authentically—whether that's in a Slack message or on a podcast. From AI adoption to KPIs, Suba makes it clear: thought leadership isn't optional for modern executives—it's core to leading transformation. She offers a candid look at how leaders should use their voice—not just for visibility, but as a catalyst for cultural change, employee productivity, and long-term innovation. Suba's message is simple and powerful: If you're not investing in thought leadership, you're holding your team back. Three Key Takeaways: • Thought Leadership Is a Leadership Imperative Suba emphasizes that thought leadership isn't optional—it's foundational to effective leadership in today's world. It's how leaders align teams, build trust, and scale their vision across an organization. She views it as table stakes for anyone serious about transformation. • Execution and Culture Must Be Intertwined Driving results at Mozilla means more than setting KPIs. Suba connects culture to execution, highlighting that metrics only matter when they're backed by employee belief, buy-in, and shared values. Thought leadership is her tool to bridge that gap. • AI Is a Culture Shift, Not Just a Tech Shift Suba doesn't just endorse using AI—she models it. By openly using tools like ChatGPT and encouraging her team to do the same, she's shaping a culture of innovation, experimentation, and productivity. Her approach shows how leadership can normalize and accelerate change from the top. If you found Suba Vasudevan's episode valuable—especially her take on aligning leadership, culture, and execution—then you won't want to miss our conversation with Harry Kraemer on Value-Based Thought Leadership. Like Suba, Harry emphasizes the power of authenticity, clarity, and consistency in leadership. He explores how values-driven decision-making builds trust, scales alignment, and creates long-term impact inside complex organizations. While Suba applies these principles to tech and innovation, Harry brings a timeless leadership lens from his experience as a CEO and professor at Kellogg.

video: https://youtu.be/GH18mp-2d90 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux is packed! It's an extra long episode. So if you were wanting more and more TWIL, then you're going to get it this week because Steam Summer Sale is here and it is torching bank accounts. Fedora developers are talking about getting rid of 32-bit support and there's a little bit of controversy around that. We're going to break all of that down. Also, Fairphone 6 has been announced and it comes with kernel patches, an upstream Linux kernel on day one. Firefox 140 has arrived as the new ESR, and there's also some exciting news coming in the next release of Firefox as well. And later in the show, KDE's Wayland wave is continuing to grow to about 70% of users these days. Kubuntu drops X11 by default, and KDE is working on a slick first run wizard. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.
