We speak to Professor Sibrandes Poppema, the President of Sunway University, to discuss a pivotal year for the university as it hosts its third major academic gathering of 2024, the AppliedHE Xchange - Recognising Excellence, Diversity and Impact. This event follows the Planetary Health Summit, and Times Higher Education Asia Universities Summit, reinforcing Malaysia's prominence on the global education map. Together, we'll explore how hosting such high-profile summits helps advance Malaysia's standing as an education hub, the impact of global and regional rankings on Sunway's strategy, and its commitment to lifelong learning and diversity in higher education. Professor Poppema will also share insights into what sets the AppliedHE Xchange apart and how it aims to foster inclusivity, collaboration, and innovation across Southeast Asia's higher education landscape.

En Malaisie, les « ulams » sont des plantes utilisées pour la cuisine et la médecine depuis des siècles. « Ulam » est un terme malais, mais leur utilisation et la connaissance de ces plantes viennent de tous les groupes ethniques de Malaisie. Seul problème : avec la mondialisation, une perte de savoir sur ces plantes se fait sentir, et inquiète certains chercheurs. Si les populations autochtones sont de moins en moins nombreuses, la déforestation et le réchauffement climatique accentuent aussi l'urgence de répertorier et de préserver ces plantes « historiques ». Dans le jardin botanique de Kuala Lumpur, Lucie Benoit, chercheuse ethno botaniste française, regarde attentivement les plantes avec un objectif en tête : identifier les ulams. Ces derniers sont partout : en ville, dans les parcs, les jardins et même sur les trottoirs. Ces plantes sont aussi au cœur de la culture malaisienne, une culture multiethnique.Lucie Benoit ne quitte jamais son carnet de notes et son appareil photo lors de ses déplacements en Malaisie. La chercheuse fait en effet partie de la Ulam School de Kuala Lumpur, et participe notamment à la sauvegarde du savoir des ulams. En les identifiant, elle tente ainsi de comprendre comment ces plantes s'intègrent dans la culture : « Mes recherches ont pour but de lister les ulams, et sauvegarder la connaissance autour de ces plantes. Elles nous apportent beaucoup choses très utiles pour notre époque, en termes de nutrition par exemple, pour combattre le diabète et l'obésité ».Un point de vue partagé par Karen Yap, cheffe malaisienne à Kuala Lumpur. Dans son restaurant, les assiettes défilent et mettent souvent à l'honneur les ulams, au plus grand plaisir des clients : « Les légumes que nous consommons aujourd'hui sont issus de l'agriculture, mais on oublie que ces derniers étaient dans notre jardin, dans notre arrière-cour », explique la cheffe. « À côté de ça, nous surconsommons, car nous achetons beaucoup plus que ce que l'on devrait. À cause de l'agriculture de masse, nous perdons l'habitude de consommer de manière responsable, donc j'essaye de revenir vers les ulams. Les ulams sont consommés frais, ils sont généralement proches du consommateur. »Karen Yap discute en effet régulièrement avec les Orang Asli (les populations autochtones de Malaisie) dans ses recherches culinaires, et se déplace aussi dans la forêt : « Je leur demande quels sont les ulams qu'ils sélectionnent naturellement... Et en fait, ils n'en consomment que quelques-uns, parce qu'ils sont proches d'eux. Quand on y pense, la vraie sécurité alimentaire, c'est d'avoir accès à tout, tant que c'est bon pour toi et bien pour la nature. Vous ne pouvez pas me dire qu'aller dans la jungle et trouver votre nourriture, ce n'est pas de la sécurité alimentaire » souligne-t-elle. Selon la cheffe, les Orangs Asli sont moins dans les villages tribaux avec la modernisation, et n'échangent plus autant qu'avant avec les anciens. Le risque d'une perte de transmission de savoir sur les ulams est donc réel : « Ce n'est pas juste les ulams, mais c'est plus globalement un héritage culinaire qui peut se perdre », s'inquiète Karen Yap. Préserver la connaissance autour de ces plantes comestibles est aussi source de belles découvertes gustatives, selon Sapna Anand, cheffe au Cordon bleu de Sunway, et auteure de plusieurs livres de cuisine : « À chaque fois, je découvre de nouveaux ulams au marché... Il y a des centaines et des centaines d'espèces. Les goûts sont à chaque fois différents. J'adore aller au marché et avoir les conseils des Malaisiens qui les vendent. Ils me disent comment ils les cuisinent » raconte-t-elle.Chez les Orang Asli aussi, la préservation du savoir des ulams est une préoccupation. Le Major Kalam Pie, cofondateur de la Jungle School Gombak Malaysia, a vécu toute son enfance dans la jungle, et connaît bien les ulams, à des fins comestibles ou médicinales : « J'ai grandi dans la jungle où on apprend et on survit parce qu'on prend soin de la nature. Vous savez, pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, ma mère a survécu alors que les japonais nous ont confisqué tout le riz. Avec sa famille, ils ont survécu grâce au tapioca, au « Pra » aussi… C'est un fruit que tu trouves dans la jungle. C'est un peu toxique, mais nous, on sait comment procéder pour enlever la toxine », raconte-t-il, « La jungle produit l'oxygène, l'eau, la nourriture, tout. Et c'est suffisant pour que tout le monde puisse vivre. Détruire la nature, c'est une grosse erreur qu'on doit admettre dès à présent. »Et dans un monde qui se dirige vers plus 4 degrés, les Orang Asli et les chercheurs le répètent : la préservation des ulams est aussi mise en danger par le risque de disparition de leur habitat.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's first story is mostly set in a hotel located somewhere we aren't sure. Whoever posted this tale never gave an exact location and there are several hotels around the country that have had the name “Sunway Hotel.” It's a nice twist on the creepy haunted hotel story. The next story is about a mythical creature from Mayan mythology - the Alux, a creepy little creature some people still believe in - like the current President of Mexico. Lynze has three stories, each on the shorter side, which makes them pack a fast paced punch. Her first tale explores ghosts in the graveyard, then she guides us to a hostel for a spoopy tale and then she rounds out the episode with a strange story that is hard to explain without giving it away!New Merch: A killer new Wendigo design now available in store. A super cool illustration featuring a pretty grotesque Wendigo-inspired creature, trapped in some sort of glowing magic spell. New collection features a tee, wall canvas, and Vintage inspired tank top with an acid wash print.

Pemandu's Dato' Sri Idris Jala: The Leader Malaysia Could Have Had - But Didn't #Leadership #Turnaround #MAS #Proton #Malaysia PEMANDU's Dato' Sri Idris Jala - The Leader Malaysia Could Have Had - But Didn't Born in Sarawak as a devout Kelabit Christian, Dato' Sri Idris Jala wasn't meant to work at Shell for 23 years. Nor was he meant to head Malaysia Airlines, help Proton in its turnaround strategy, work as a former Minister in the Malaysian government, much less advise governments and global corporations in socioeconomic affairs as Chairman of PEMANDU Associates. And yet he did, thanks to a heady cocktail of destiny, faith and hard work, culminating in his current roles as Co-Chairman of Sunway, ProChancellor of Sunway University and Chairman of Heineken Malaysia, in between lecturing twice a year at Harvard University. Here, he talks to Khoo Hsu Chuang about Leadership, Fate, Faith and Serendipity, while proffering original and practical suggestions for Malaysia's woes. (Many thanks to the Asia School of Business for their collaboration with The Do More Podcast, in whose studio this conversation was recorded.

"We wanted to create a status quo assessment of tourism and climate change in Asia, where research has been limited." This week's show tackles a white-hot issue for the travel industry: how to address carbon emissions and global heating. The impacts of climate change are all around us in South East Asia, with a recent report citing Thailand, Myanmar, the Philippines and Vietnam as particularly vulnerable to climate risks. This week, Gary chats with Alexander Trupp, Associate Dean of Research & Postgraduate Studies at the School of Hospitality & Service Management, Sunway University in Malaysia. Alex is co-author of a new paper, called Tourism Under Climate Crisis in Asia: Impacts and Implications, published in the Journal of Sustainable Tourism. Alex sets out the facts and stats that show how urgent is the climate crisis across Asia, and discusses specific vulnerabilities for travel and tourism in each sub-region. He also addresses the collective efforts required to bring change, and initiatives being put in place by the tourism industry to transition toward more sustainable travel.

If you told me I could only ski one ski area in the Northeast outside of Northern Vermont for the rest of my life, then I would still pick Gore. And if you told me I could only ski one Northeast ski area for the rest of my life and you threw in a magic snowcloud that delivered Green Mountain Spine-level snowfalls to eastern New York… well, I’d probably have to go with Jay Peak or Smuggs or Stowe or Sugarbush, but if my commute still had to start in Brooklyn, then Gore would be a strong contender.This is a damn fine chunk of real estate, is my point here. The skiing is just terrific. There’s a reason that New York Ski Blog founder Harvey Road makes Gore, along with Plattekill, his home base. It’s a big, interesting ski area, a state-owned property that somehow feels anti-establishment, a sort of outpost for the gritty, toughguy skier who has little use for the Rockies or, for that matter, Vermont. It’s the sort of place where people rack up 100-day seasons even if it only snows 45 inches (as happened over the 2015-16 ski season, according to Snowpak). But Gore really needs snow to be Gore. And that’s because the best part about the skiing is the mountain’s massive glade network, which threads its way around, over, and through the ski area’s many peaks. The woods are well-considered and well-maintained, marked and secret, rambling and approachable. None of them, outside a half dozen turns on Chatiemac and a few others, are particularly steep. At low-snow Gore, this is a plus – it doesn’t take a lot of snow to fill in the trees, and the snow tends to hold once it falls.Talk to anyone who has toured the New York ski scene, and you’ll hear familiar – if sometimes unfair – complaints. Hunter is too crowded, Windham too expensive, Whiteface too icy. No one ever has anything bad to say about Gore, even though it can sometimes be some version of all of those things. The one consistent nit about the place is its sprawling setup, but that breadth is precisely what keeps liftlines short to nonexistent, outside of the gondola, nearly every day of the ski season. And locals know how to work around the traverses that drive day-skiers nutso. It’s an elegant machine once you learn how to drive it.I get a lot of requests for podcasts. Gore is one of the most frequent. If it ran for president of New York skiing, I’m pretty sure we wouldn’t need a recount. I’ve been after this one for a long time, and I’m happy we were finally able to deliver it.What we talked aboutThe longest ski season in Gore Mountain history; how the mountain reached May and whether they’ll try to do so again in the future; ORDA’s commitment to the long season; snowmaking; the singular experience of life in the southern Adirondacks; Gore in the 1980s; the story behind the Burnt Ridge and Snow Bowl expansions; the new trail coming to Burnt Ridge for next winter; don’t worry Barkeater will be OK!; why the new summer attractions have to be built at North Creek; Ski Bowl history; riding trucks up the mountain; the death of the ski train; how much of the historic North Creek ski area Gore was able to incorporate into its expansion; Nordic skiing at Gore; the huge new lift-lodge-zipline project planned for North Creek; the anticipated alignment of the new Hudson chair; a potential timeline for the whole project; how Gore could evolve if it had two fully developed base areas; whether more trails could be inbound for North Creek (or anywhere else at Gore); Gore’s expansive and ever-expanding glades; a wishlist for lift upgrades; which lift could get an extension; details on the new lift type and alignment for Bear Cub; possible replacements for Straight Brook and Topridge; in defense of fixed-grip lifts; whether we could ever see the gondola return to the Gore Mountain summit; why the North Quad terminates below the gondola; the potential for slopeside lodging at Gore; the Ski3 Pass; why Belleayre still has a standalone pass but Gore does not; why ORDA dropped the every-sixth-day-free from the Ski3 frequency card and whether that could return; why Gore didn’t migrate from the M.A.X. Pass to the Ikon Pass; whether Gore could ever join the Ikon or Indy Passes; staffing up in spite of the challenges; how ORDA determines wages; and the World University Games. Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewAnytime would be a good time for a Gore interview. There is always something new. In 2020, Gore was one of a handful of ski areas in North America that went ahead with planned lift projects, upgrading High Peaks and Sunway, a pair of unreliable antiques, with new fixed-grip quads. The ski area’s rapid expansion over the past 15 years – with the additions of Burnt Ridge, North Creek Ski Bowl, and countless glades, both mapped and not – is nearly unequaled in the United States. Gore is, and has been for a very long time, a place where big things are happening.Part of the reason for that rapid growth is the 2018 announcement that New York will host the 2023 World University Games. Gore will host a set of freestyle events, and the state seems intent on avoiding a repeat of the 1980 Olympic embarrassment, when a snowless early winter threatened to move several events north to Canada. New York has invested hundreds of millions of dollars into its three ski areas and its Olympic facilities over the past decade, and much of that has gone to Gore.But I do not, as regular readers know, focus much – or, really, any – attention on ski competitions of any kind. Bone and I discuss the games a bit toward the end of the interview, but mostly we talk about the mountain. And it is a hell of a mountain. It’s a personal favorite, and one I’ve been trying to lock a podcast conversation around since Storm Launch Day back in 2019.Questions I wish I’d askedMany of you may be left wondering why my extensive past complaints about ORDA largess did not penetrate my line of questioning for this interview. Gore is about to spend nearly $9 million to replace a 12-year-old triple chair with a high-speed quad. There is no other ski area on the continent that is able to do anything remotely similar. How could I spend an hour talking to the person directing this whole operation without broaching this very obvious subject?Because this is not really a Gore problem. It’s not even an ORDA problem. This is a New York State problem. The state legislature is the one directing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to three ski areas while the majority of New York’s family-owned mountains pray for snow. I am not opposed to government support of winter sports. I am opposed to using tax dollars from independent ski areas that have to operate at a profit in order to subsidize the operations of government-owned ski areas that do not. There are ways to distribute the wealth more evenly, as I’ve outlined before.But this is not Bayse’s fight. He’s the general manager of a public ski area. What is he supposed to do? Send the $9 million back to the legislature and tell them to give it to Holiday Mountain? His job is to help prioritize projects and then make sure they get done. And he’s really good at that job. So that – and not bureaucratic decisions that he has no control over – was where I took this conversation.Why you should ski GoreThe New York glory goes to Whiteface, Olympic skyscraper, its 3,430-foot vertical drop towering over everything in the Northeast, and big parts of the West too, over Aspen and Breck and Beaver Creek and Mammoth and Palisades Tahoe and Snowbird and Snowbasin. The New York attention goes to the Catskills, seated between Gore and The City – New York City – like a drain trap. Almost all of the northbound skiers that don’t know enough to detour to Belleayre or Plattekill stop at Windham and Hunter and for most that’s as far north as they ever bother to go. Whiteface sits adjacent to Lake Placid, one of North America’s great ski towns. Hunter has slopeside lodging and a woo-hoo sensibility that vibes with metro-area hedonism.Gore sits between these twin outposts. It’s less than four hours north of Manhattan, 30 minutes off the interstate on good roads. It’s overlooked anyway. Skiers headed that far north are more likely to end up at Stratton or Mount Snow or Okemo or Killington, with their big-pass affiliations and on-mountain beds and similar-to-Gore vertical drops and trail networks. Anyone who wants to ski Gore has to wake up and drive every day, even if they’re on vacation.All of that adds up to this: the best ski area in New York is often one of its least crowded. And Gore is the best ski area in New York. The glade network alone grants it that distinction. The place is sprawling, quirky, interesting. It skis like a half dozen mini ski areas stuffed into a sampler pack: get small-town vibes at Ski Bowl, cruise off Bear, go Midwest off gentle and forgotten North Quad, feel high alpine on the summit, or just bounce around all day in the glades.When Gore has snow, it’s glorious, a backwoods vibe with a modern lift fleet – other than an antique J-bar, the oldest lift on the mountain is from 1995. But snow is Gore’s biggest drawback. One hundred twenty-five inches per year is OK, but if only we could hack the whole operation out of the earth and chopper it west into one of New York’s two great snowbelts, off Lakes Ontario or Eerie, where Snow Ridge racks up 230 inches of annual snowfall and Peek’N Peak claims 200. ORDA has invested massively in snowmaking – Gore has at least 829 snowguns. But they don’t make snow in the trees, and without that sprawling glade network in play, Gore is a far less interesting place.It can also be hard to navigate. Anyone who doesn’t luck into the Pipeline Traverse connecting North Quad to Burnt Ridge and Ski Bowl (Little Gore), is looking at an atrocious commute from the main lodge to the Burnt Ridge Quad, an irritating pole on skis, infuriating on a snowboard. That’s just one example – Gore, for the uninitiated, can be an exhaustive tangle of such routes, of lifts that don’t quite go where you thought they would, of deceptive distances squished together for the convenience of a pocket-fold trailmap.Still, Gore is everything that is great about New York skiing: affordable, convenient, unpretentious, unassuming. It is, under the right conditions, a top 10 Northeast mountain. It’s a true skier’s mountain, opening early, closing as late as May 1. This one’s not on any of your megapasses. Go there anyway. It’s worth it.Podcast notesBayse and I discussed the new intermediate trail going in on Burnt Ridge this summer. Gore’s website describes the new trail in this way:This 60’ wide intermediate-rated trail with grooming and snowmaking capabilities will enter near the top of the Burnt Ridge Quad and run alongside the Barkeater Glades, ending just uphill of the Roaring Brook Bridge at the bottom of The Pipeline, making your adventure to Little Gore Mountain and the Ski Bowl more direct and easily accessible!Here’s where it will sit on the trailmap:New York Ski Blog’s Harvey Road visited Gore in June and walked the new trail with Bayse:We also discussed the possibility of eventually bringing the gondola back to the top of Gore Mountain, where the ski area’s original gondola landed, as you can see in this 1994 trailmap:That won’t be happening. When Gore strung the new gondy up in 1999, they dropped the terminal onto Bear Mountain, which opened up a whole new pod of skiing:That, as it turned out, was just the start of Gore’s rabid expansion over the next two decades. In 2008, the ski area developed Burnt Ridge:Two years later, Gore connected Burnt Ridge to Little Gore Mountain, which was the lost North Creek Ski Bowl ski area:We also discussed additional trails that could be developed skier’s left of the current Little Gore summit. Here’s what those looked like in a 2008 rendering:If you really want to get into Gore’s potential and long-term plans, there are zillions of conceptual maps in the ski area’s 541-page Unit Management Plan update from 2018:Finally, Bayse and I discussed the M.A.X. Pass, which was the immediate antecedent of the Ikon Pass. Gore was a part of this eclectic coalition, which included all of the mountains below – imagine if all of these had joined the Ikon Pass:Scanning that roster is a bit like playing Fantasy Ski Pass, but it’s also an acknowledgement that there’s nothing preordained about the current Ikon-Indy-Epic-Mountain Collective alignments that we are all so familiar with. That was M.A.X. Pass’ lineup five years ago. Now, those ski areas are split amongst the four big passes, and some of them have opted for complete independence. Gore, sadly for the multi-mountain pass fans among us, is one of them (though it is part of the SKI3 Pass with sister resorts Belleayre and Whiteface). That trio would make a Northeast crown jewel for Indy Pass, and would be a worthy addition for Ikon. If ORDA were worried about cannibalizing SKI3 sales with an Ikon partnership, they could simply combine the three ski areas into a single “destination” and offer five or seven combined days, much as Ikon has long offered at the four Aspen mountains or Killington-Pico.Gore on New York Ski BlogNo ski writer in America has written more about Gore than Harvey Road, who, as mentioned above, is the founder, editor, and soul behind the fabulous New York Ski Blog, which is one of the longest-running and most consistent online regional ski websites in the country.Harv is a good friend of mine, and I’ve contributed a half dozen posts (on Burke, Stowe, Maple Ski Ridge, Willard, Mount Snow, and Killington) to his site over the years. New York Ski Blog has 222 stories tagged with Gore, which date back to 2006. I asked Harvey to choose his four favorite:1) I Never Made It To The Top – Feb. 18, 2019There are many reasons to like the North Creek Ski Bowl. The parking, the yurt, the people who ski there, the vibe. Another bonus feature is proximity to Burnt Ridge via the Eagle’s Nest traverse.Burnt Ridge has become the part of Gore that I think about when I’m daydreaming at my desk. It’s unique among the eastern areas I have skied. A beautiful chair lift that serves an epic groomer and four mile-long glades. For the most part they are gently pitched, and I often find I am in my zone.2) Gore Mountain: Love The One You’re With – March 25, 2019NYSkiBlog was originally designed to be a skier’s decision engine. The Weather Center was created to help road warriors — those who have to travel far and plan ahead — make the best possible decisions to get good snow.It’s certainly not a fool-proof tool. Weather data requires persistent monitoring and educated interpretation to pay dividends. And even with all that, things can go wrong.My idea at the beginning of the week was to ski Plattekill in the warm sunshine that was forecast for Saturday, and then move north to ski Gore on Sunday. But as the week wore on, a spring storm crept into the forecast and affected my plan.3) That Next Big Step – Feb. 19, 2020Over the last few seasons, our daughter has been generally fearless in the trees, and only intimidated by the steepest steeps at Gore. Two years ago, when 46er opened, we skied right up to the headwall, paused, re-considered, and sidestepped back uphill to ski the Hudson Trail.This past Sunday, we were first at the Yurt and first in line for the Hudson Chair. Don was working the lift, and he always gives me a good tip: “46er was groomed overnight.” The lift started to spin early, and we were on our way up the hill at 8:15.I’ve learned, always listen to Don. Without pushing too hard, I hope, I raised the idea of grabbing it while the cord was perfect. Two points for us, we were on a slow fixed-grip lift, with no one ahead of us, so we had some time to talk it out. By the time we arrived at the top of Little Gore, we were going for it.The cord was firm but grippy and she nailed it. On the next ride up, she asked me “Dad, how does that compare to Lies?” I told her “46er is steeper than Lies, but it’s shorter. And Lies won’t be cord, by the time we get to it.”Apparently some kids at school had been talking about Lies, making it out to be the full-on shizzle. She’d gained confidence on 46er and was looking for some bragging rights to go with it. “To the top Dad, to the top!”4) Gore Mountain: Good Friday – April 18, 2022When Gore is one of NY’s last men standing — and you have a season pass, and a beautiful day off, and you’re a wannabe ski writer — you’re going to ski it and write about it. That’s how it goes. More Gore.This is also the post in which Harvey describes a confrontation with some moron who “didn’t appreciate the attention [NY Ski Blog has] brought to Gore.” This is an idiotic take, as though a hobby blog, and not the millions of dollars in upgrades and marketing invested by the state, were the reason for Gore’s growing reputation and skier visits. This sort of don’t-talk-about-my-mountain homerism is counterproductive, a sort of domestic xenophobia that’s frustrating and disheartening. It’s also bizarre. An Instagram follower recently hit me with a shoosh emoji after I posted a picture of a super-top-secret ski area called Alta, as though a post to my fewer-than 3,000 followers was going to suddenly transform one of America’s most iconic ski areas into a mosh pit. I hate to blow this secret wide open, but these are public businesses, that anyone is allowed to visit. I visit dozens of ski areas every season – one of them is usually Gore. Other than Mountain Creek – my home mountain – I’m a tourist at every single one of them. Translating the energy of those places into content that helps fuel the ski zeitgeist is part of the point of The Storm, and it’s the whole point of New York Ski Blog.

El Festival Internacional d’Escacs Sunway Sitges 2020 es farà de forma presencial, amb totes les mesures anti Covid-19, però els seus organitzadors ja asseguren que l’edició d’enguany, amb una participació que quedarà lluny dels prop de 450 jugadors de l’any passat, serà de transició.

According to Unesco, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on the education sector around the world with 138 countries forced to close schools and universities. This has affected 1.37 billion children and youth - or nearly 80% of the world’s student population. Going online doesn’t mean this solves the problem because online education comes with a whole different set of external challenges like connectivity as well as internal investments that need to be made as well. But one education group that has been toying with online and offline, a dual learning approach is Sunway Education Group. Dr Elizabeth Lee, the CEO of Sunway Education Group came on the show to tell us more.

Data-kappløpet mellom USA og Kina fortsetter med uforminsket styrke. Forskere mener vi er i ferd med å få et sosialt klasseskille mellom de som holder seg oppdatert på hva som skjer i samfunnet og ikke. EU mottar tusenvis på tusenvis av klager som følge av GDPR.200 millioner milliarder matematiske kalkulasjoner i sekundetVi snakker ofte om data-kappløpet mellom Kina og USA, og det kappløpet har også lenge vært knyttet til hvilket land som har verdens kraftigste datamaskin. Kina har lenge vært i førersetet her, men nå har USA tatt tronen tilbake - og det med god margin. Den kinesiske superdatamaskinen Sunway TaihuLight hadde en ytelse på 93 petaflops. Nå har USA lansert sin nye superdatamaskin; Summit. Den er ikke bare litt raskere og litt råere enn kinesiske Sunway - neida, den er over dobbelt så rask, og kan kalkulere 200 petaflops i sekundet.Men hva pokker er petaflops og hva har det med MediaPuls å gjøre?Sosialt klasseskilleEr vi i ferd med å få et sosialt klasseskille mellom de som holder seg oppdatert på hva som skjer i samfunnet og de som ikke gjør det?Ja, mener flere norske forskere. Ved Universitetet i Bergen sitter professor i medievitenskap, Hallvard Moe. Han peker på at mediehusenes sin utrolige suksess med betalingsmurer også kan ha en samfunnsmessig skyggeside.Og det er ikke bare betalingsmurene som kan skape forskjeller. Ved Universitetet i Sørøst-Norge sitter førsteamanuensis i sosiologi, Eiri Elvestad. Hun har akkurat gitt ut en bok om 7 medie-myter.Også blant de unge er det store forskjeller, og Elvestad advarer mot å tro at ungdom ikke trenger opplæring og kunnskap for å navigere på digitale plattformer.Digital News Report 2018I forrige uke kom det ikke mindre enn 11 rapporter som er relevant for det vi snakker om i MediaPuls. Alt fra årsrapporter som viser en eksplosiv vekst i bruk av podkaster som annonsekanal, til rapporter fra forskere som har brukt kunstig intelligens for å finne ut hvem som vinner fotball-VM.Men det er spesielt én rapport som alltid er interessant sett med norske øyne: Det er Digital News Report fra Reuters Insitute for the Study of Journalism.

Medicare is turning to technology to make sure it doesn't pay fraudulent claims. The upgrade is a screening technology much like what's used by credit card companies to stop fraud. Also, the Japanese are beefing up their security just like the United States. The country made it illegal to create or distribute computer viruses but some critics say the new law could infringe on privacy. And software widely used in China to help run weapons systems, utilities and chemical plants has bugs that hackers could exploit to damage public infrastructure. Sunway has developed software patches to plug the holes but it could take months for customers to install it. And as always we will have the job of the day.
