What To Do if Your Car Tries to Kill You
The scary news last week was that a couple of guys demonstrated they
could hack into a Jeep and take control of it. Later, more details came
out that suggested you might want to avoid Chrysler cars altogether. The
industry appears to be waiting for the first major catastrophic accident
before putting resources into fixing this problem at the proper level.

Gadgets: Gritty Tablets, Wireless Storage Sticks, and Swapped-Out Speakers
Dell's Latitude 12 Rugged Tablet is designed for people who work in the
field, for the military and explorers, for industrial work and first
responders. This system can handle some harsh conditions, including
temperatures between -20 and 145 degrees and drops from more than four
feet, as well as spills, mud, dirt and sand. It boasts an 11.6-inch
screen and fifth-generation Intel Core CPUs.

Tech Giants Boost Open Source Container Collaboration
The Linux Foundation this week announced the Cloud Native Computing
Foundation, a consortium dedicated to the development and adoption of
common container technologies. CNCF aims to make it easier for
businesses to deploy containerized cloud applications oriented to
microservices. Open source container-packaged applications are easier to
create, manage and deploy, said tech analyst Rob Enderle.

Stephen Hawking Kicks Off $100M Hunt for Alien Intelligence
Space fever seems to be catching on. Stephen Hawking and a group of
other high-profile space scientists joined with Russian billionaire Yuri
Milner this week to announce a new $100 million effort to search for
intelligent alien life. The funding will go to the Breakthrough
Initiatives' Breakthrough Listen program. Breakthrough Initiatives is a
10-year multidisciplinary effort.
