The dearth of corporate action on methane has been highlighted by a survey of 23 leading coffee and dairy companies.  The report finds that while nine out of 10 companies recognize the link between livestock and climate change, just three of those surveyed — Danone, FrieslandCampina and General Mills — have set a target to reduce emissions of the gas by 2030. The findings come amid a period of heightened interest in methane and other superpollutants. The gases are collectively responsible for around one-half of global warming to date and are heating the planet more rapidly than carbon dioxide.  The…

Imagine the following scenario: you and a team of cyber experts have been tasked with protecting your organization from cyberattacks. You’ve developed a machine learning (ML) model to screen incoming and outgoing traffic. You feel you can rest easy, as your model achieves near-perfect performance during test and evaluation. One day, you are awakened by a frantic call from your CEO—your customers’ private data have been leaked. How could this happen? you think to yourself, as you begin investigating why your model failed to stop this attack.This situation is not merely hypothetical. Studies have found that models that were once…

A hybrid model spanning hours to decades shows that a fully renewable energy system is achievable, with flexibility key to lowering costs Earth timer (Courtesy: iStock/Peepo) A successful clean‑energy transition depends on understanding how to balance variable renewable power with the growing electricity demands of transport, heating, and industry. A key challenge is capturing how renewable energy sources like wind and solar fluctuate hour by hour, but this variability also creates new opportunities to align supply with increasingly flexible forms of demand, such as electric vehicles, heat pumps, and other electrified services. Alongside these short‑term dynamics, it is equally important…

Euro-Office consists of four browser-based applications: a document editor, spreadsheet program, presentation tool, and a PDF editor, with each application enabling collaborative document editing. It supports Microsoft Office file formats DOCX, PPTX and XLSX, as well as Open Document Format (ODF) files such as ODS, ODT and ODP. The software is intended to be integrated into collaboration solutions such as file-sharing platforms, online wikis or project management tools, according to Nextcloud, one of several European organizations involved in the Euro-Office project. Nextcloud will add Euro-Office to its Nextcloud Office next month, where it will be available as an “equal option”…

The following article originally appeared on the Asimov’s Addendum Substack and is being reposted here with the author’s permission.Bill Gurley has an excellent article on what he calls open source strategy, which we recommend reading. There is a lot to debate about his concluding argument in particular: that open-weight models are central to keeping the AI market rent-free. The limits of open-weight AI as the primary open source strategy are surely considerable though, if it still requires expensive hardware to run on, and if the architecture ultimately remains monolithic—rather than composable and protocol-centric.A related consideration comes from Anthropic’s recent acquisition of Stainless—a startup that generates…

Taara may have literal vaporware in its corporate heritage, but prospects for this offshoot of a Google Moonshot project now look much more solid.Over the last year, Taara has followed successful tests of its free-space optics links in a dozen-plus countries by moving to scale up its efforts – both in its core market of middle-mile broadband and in a recent expansion into video distribution.”We go where fiber can’t go, or where it’s very difficult to reach,” Taara Founder and CEO Mahesh Krishnaswamy said in an interview at Web Summit Vancouver hours before a panel he participated in at that conference. “We also go where wireless is…

Today, we’re announcing the next generation of AWS Resilience Hub with a significantly expanded experience that brings together a new application model, dependency discovery assessment, generative AI-powered failure mode analysis, modular resilience policies, and organization-wide reporting. Organizations running hundreds of applications share a common challenge: availability is a top concern, yet there is no consistent way to set resilience goals, measure progress, or prove compliance across a portfolio. Teams set different standards, use different tools, and struggle to exchange information about whether applications actually meet expectations. The next generation of AWS Resilience Hub changes this by giving Site Reliability Engineers…
