Your reaction matters more than what happens to you

“Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed.

Artificial networks shed light on human face recognition

How you and your friends can play a video game together using only your minds

Telepathic communication might be one step closer to reality thanks to new research from the University of Washington. A team created a method that allows three people to work together to solve a problem using only their minds.

In Brain Net, three people play a Tetris-like game using a brain-to-brain interface. This is the first demonstration of two things: a brain-to-brain network of more than two people, and a person being able to both receive and send information to others using only their brain. The team published its results April 16 in the Nature journal Scientific Reports, though this research previously attracted media attention after the researchers posted it September to the pre-print site arXiv.

"Humans are social beings who communicate with each other to cooperate and solve problems that none of us can solve on our own," said corresponding author Rajesh Rao, the CJ and Elizabeth Hwang professor in the UW's Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering and a co-director of the Center for Neurotechnology. "We wanted to know if a group of people could collaborate using only their brains. That's how we came up with the idea of BrainNet: where two people help a third person solve a task."http://varinfotech.in/history.html

Opinion: Better systems, better DevOps

DevOps is not simply a set of tools or systems, but rather a methodology requiring stakeholder buy-in for successful execution. DevOps is based on collaboration—using operations, best practices, and organizational culture to streamline and connect development teams and IT operations.

The better the system design, the better the DevOps implementation could be. Deriving the best value from DevOps requires agility many legacy systems can’t deliver. To maximize efficiency, DevOps must operate on a flexible system such as one running microservices and containers in a cloud environment.
