Today's Story Highlights

DNA Printing in the Cloud, Part 2
In DNA printing, genetic code becomes computer code. This occurs when
the chemical bases adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine present in a
chemical mix or gene sequence are translated by computer through gel
electrophoresis technology into their representative letters: A/T, T/A,
C/G, G/C. This alphabet code was formalized in 1970 by the International
Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.

2018: The Year of Fighting for Positive Change
When I think of corporate responsibility, one company tends to float to
the top, and that is Cisco. With massive efforts to train people all
over the world in the critical networking skills needed to secure and
expand global communications, Cisco has been taking a major chunk out of
joblessness. It has invested millions to reduce homelessness near its
headquarters, for example.

5 Ways to Make Your Website Gen-Z Friendlier
Generation Z is getting a lot of attention these days, as the cohort is
expected to outpace millennials, and comprise 32 percent of the world's
7.7 billion population. This powerful group of consumers was born into a
digital world. A much-reported claim is that Generation Z has an
attention span of 8 seconds. It may seem that your website should mirror
this lightning-quick attention span.

DNA Printing in the Cloud, Part 1
DNA printing is based on the natural flow of genetic information in a
cell from DNA through RNA to amino acids to proteins, from gene to
protein, genome to proteome, genomics to proteomics. DNA, life's
foundation blueprint, makes up genes, the instructions for making
proteins -- the complex molecules that do most of the work in living
organisms. "DNA makes RNA makes proteins make Life."
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85745.html

Apple's Self-Destructive Qualcomm, China Strategies
Why would Apple want to put Qualcomm out of business? It'is because
Apple uses a lock-in strategy, where once on an Apple platform it is
painful to get off. Most of the smart Apple iPhone users I know actually
use Google apps and Google's infrastructure and other third-party tools
on their iPhones, so if they want to move to an Android phone they can
move almost seamlessly.

How Much Can Technology Be Trusted?
Since the industrial revolution, technology has changed society
continually. Largely due to innovations in semiconductor electronics,
software and computer technology, the pace of technological development
has continued to accelerate over the past 50 years. Personal computers
now fit into your pocket. You have access to people and information all
over the world through the Internet.

Today's Story Highlights

BlackBerry Makes Autonomous Vehicle Play
BlackBerry this week introduced its new Security Credential Management
System. SCMS -- a free service for the public and private sectors --
could encourage efforts to develop autonomous and connected vehicle
pilot programs. BlackBerry undertook development of this technology to
provide the critical infrastructure for vehicles and traffic lights to
exchange information securely.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85736.html

Supermicro: Our Motherboards Are Clean
Supermicro CEO Charles Liang has informed the company's customers that a
leading third-party investigations company found "absolutely no evidence
of malicious hardware" on its motherboards. The investigation was
undertaken in response to a recent claim that bad actors had inserted
spy chips in the firm's motherboards on behalf of the Chinese People's
Liberation Army.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85735.html

Pantheon Desktop Makes Linux Elementary
Developers of U.S.-based Elementary OS recently released the community's
annual major update, Juno 5. What makes this distro so nontraditional is
its own desktop interface, called "Pantheon." This desktop interface is
somewhat of a hybrid, inspired by Apple's Debian Ubuntu-based OS X. It
combines some similarities of the GNOME 3 Shell with the visual finesse
of the OS X dock.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85733.html

Location Data Selling Threatens Consumer Privacy
Selling location data collected by mobile phones has become a lucrative
business, according to a report that noted location advertising sales
are expected to reach $21 billion this year. At least 75 companies
receive anonymous, precise location data from applications with the
location services feature activated. Several of those outfits claim to
track 200 million mobile devices in the U.S.

Who's Winning the Latest Tech Industry Battles?
December has become consistent with the Chinese curse, "May You Be Born
In Interesting Times." We are up to our armpits in wars. Qualcomm and
Intel are fighting for 5G control, and Intel is tearing itself apart.
Microsoft passed Apple in valuation, largely because it has not been
focusing on Apple. The Huawei founder's daughter has just been arrested,
at the request of the U.S.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85728.html

End of the Line for Microsoft Edge?
Rumors circulated this week that Microsoft will be replacing the core
technology in its Edge browser for Windows 10 with Chromium, the open
source software from Google that is the core of the Chrome browser.
Google's Blink -- the browser engine that is responsible for
interpreting website coding and displaying it on a user's device -- will
be basis of the new browser, codenamed "Anaheim."
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/85726.html

Google Hasn't Kept Promise to Stop Bubble-Wrapping Users: Report
Google hasn't released consumers from its filter bubble -- the package
of personalized search results it delivers -- despite having promised to
do so, according to study results from DuckDuckGo. Most participants saw
results unique to them, the researchers found, which could not be
explained by changes in location, time, by being logged into Google, or
by Google testing algorithm changes.
